1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: Right hour two Shawn Kennedy Show, eight hundred and nine

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: four one, Shawn our number. You want to be a

3
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: part of the program as we come to you from DC,

4
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: the Swamp, the sewer. If you will tonight, we will

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: be at the Capitol town Hall with the US Senate

6
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: now ramping up what is critical for the President's agenda,

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 1: and that obviously would include getting the economy on track

8
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: so that means that we can hopefully return to a

9
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: better economy. One of the main topics of discussion and

10
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: obsession has been the issue of tariffs. We do have

11
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: a number of updates as we've gone through today, Scott

12
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 1: Bessent saying now seventy nations won't negotiate over Donald Trump's tariffs.

13
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: European Union they're ready to negotiate with Trump for zero

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: for zero tariffs. Volkswagen has suspended car sales in the US,

15
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: which is perfectly fine with me, which would probably drive

16
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: Americans to buy more American made cars. That doesn't I mean,

17
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: you know, you're necessarily going to buy a GM or Aford,

18
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: Although I think that's nice. I happen to like a

19
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: lot of I like the Escalade by Cadillac. I love

20
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: the F one fifty pickup. I love the Dodge Ram,

21
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: I love mal most American made car is our Tesla car.

22
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: And you know Tesla as we know is uh. You know,

23
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: part of our contest. And if you just go to

Speaker 2: Uh.

29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: Today's word of the day is water. We need water

30
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: to survive. That's why we want to know. Elon wants

31
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: to know. I was saying, Washington, Okay, Today's word of

32
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: the day is the swamp.

33
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 3: That's great swamp. That's what today's word of the day is.

34
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,559
Speaker 3: What your host exactly? Uh.

35
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: The President, given that big presser with Prime Minister net

36
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: and Yahoo yesterday, talked about the EU's offer for zero

37
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: tariffs now is not enough.

38
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 3: Now.

39
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: Do I think all of this is one big negotiation that,

40
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: of course the media will never understand about Donald Trump.

41
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 3: Yes, I do. Here's the President.

42
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 4: There been some mixed messages from your administration.

43
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 5: You're talking about negotiations, and yet others in your administration

44
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 5: are saying that these.

45
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,399
Speaker 6: Tariffs are actually permanent?

46
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 7: What is that?

47
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 4: Actually?

48
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 5: What?

49
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 8: Well?

50
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 9: It could be taken both people.

51
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 2: True, they can be permanent tariffs and they can also

52
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 2: be negotiations because there are things.

53
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 9: That we need beyond tariffs.

54
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 2: We need open borders. You know, we almost had a

55
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 2: deal with China where we're going to open up China.

56
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 3: It was almost done.

57
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 2: Some of you remember it during my first time, and

58
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 2: it was very disappointing. We ended up making a great

59
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 2: deal of fifty billion dollars worth of product. Was so

60
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 2: fifty billion you'd like that in Israel and I made

61
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 2: that deal, but it wasn't the deal that I wanted.

62
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 9: They have your chairs, Well, the EU, no, it's not.

63
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 9: The EU has been very tough over the years. It

64
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 9: was I always say it.

65
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 2: Was formed to really do damage to the United States

66
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: and trade.

67
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 3: That's the reason it was formed.

68
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 8: It was formed with all of the countries from Europe,

69
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 8: I guess most of them, not all of them, but

70
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 8: most of them, and they formed together to create a

71
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,679
Speaker 8: little bit of a monopoly situation, to create a unified

72
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 8: force against the United States betraye. We have a deficit

73
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 8: with the European Union of three hundred and fifty billion

74
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 8: dollars and it's going to disappear fast. And one of

75
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 8: the reasons, and one of the ways that that can

76
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 8: disappear easily and quickly is they're going to have to

77
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 8: buy our energy from us because they need it. They're

78
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 8: going to have to buy it from us.

79
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: They can buy it.

80
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 8: We can knock go up three hundred and fifty billion

81
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 8: dollars in one week. They have to buy and commit

82
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 8: to buy a like amount of energy, and.

83
00:03:59,120 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 6: We have that.

84
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: So the President, as you can hear, is in a

85
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: perpetual state of negotiations. Something in the media does not

86
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: want to ever understand about him anyway. Elaine Dozinski is

87
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: with US, senior director, head of the Center on Economic

88
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: and Financial Power at the Foundation for Defensive Democracies. Elaine,

89
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: welcome to the program. Look, the state run legacy media

90
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 1: mob as I call them, and Democrats, they don't want

91
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: to understand Donald Trump because they're in a perpetual state

92
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: of rage against him, and they bubble in fizz like

93
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: alca celter and water at the very sound of his voice. However,

94
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: the Donald Trump that I've known for thirty years is

95
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: a guy that is he negotiates everything is a negotiation

96
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: with him, And what he's saying to Europe is, hold

97
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: on a second, you all united, you created the European Union,

98
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: you all agreed on these massive tariffs against the US. Okay, Well,

99
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: he's willing to have the discussion about free and fair

100
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: trade with all of these countries, and he's willing to

101
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: have you know, if they want terris, it's going to

102
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 1: be reciprocal. But he's also saying there are other issues

103
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: that need to be negotiated financially.

104
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 3: That's what I hear.

105
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think I think that's I think that's

106
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 5: more or less correct. What we have is a large

107
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 5: and persistent trade deficit with a number of countries. These

108
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 5: are countries like Germany, South Korea, and most importantly China,

109
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 5: where we're in something like an untenable situation and the

110
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 5: bill is coming due. And what I mean by that

111
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 5: is that we've become the consumer of last resort within

112
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 5: the global economy, which means we're absorbing a lot of

113
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 5: cheap imports, we're absorbing a lot of surplus savings, and

114
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 5: this dynamic has to shift. Okay, this is part of

115
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 5: the trade deficit surplus challenge that we face. Tariffs in

116
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 5: terms of where we are in this conversation, I agree

117
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 5: with you, we're in the first round, and I don't

118
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 5: know why people wouldn't understand that we're not in the

119
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 5: first round of a very detailed discussion about how to

120
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 5: reorient our engagement with countries around the world. And I

121
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 5: think what Donald Trump is saying is we're redefining the

122
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 5: concept of economic ally and part of the way that

123
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 5: we're doing that is by addressing UH tariffs and other

124
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 5: types of barriers. Right He's talking about non market barriers,

125
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 5: particularly with China, that also have an influence on the

126
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 5: competitiveness of the US. And the idea at the end

127
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 5: of the day is really to bring manufacturing home, particularly

128
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 5: for exquisite manufacturing, meaning high tech and fansteck, the thing

129
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 5: that we need for the economy now and in the future,

130
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 5: and do it with more of domestic labor and make

131
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 5: deals countries that make more sense for the US. So

132
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 5: there's lots of different aspects to the reorientation happening right now,

133
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 5: and the opening shot is tariffs.

134
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: Okay, So when the Treasury Secretary Scott Bissen confirms that

135
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: leaders from over seventy countries have approached the administration about

136
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: the tariff announcement. When you read the European Union now

137
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: all of a sudden is willing to talk about free

138
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: and fair trade and no tariffs at all whatsoever. This

139
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: is where I knew we'd always kind of land in

140
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: terms of there's no way that these countries are going

141
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: to put the tariffs that will impact their economies their

142
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: workers at risk because they want the right to rip

143
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: off America anymore. Because at the end of the day,

144
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: the citizens of their countries are going to be the

145
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: ones that are angry. They're the ones whose factories are

146
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: going to shut They're the ones who are going to

147
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: be losing jobs, and they're the ones that are going

148
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: to be negatively impacted. In other words, they need access

149
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: to our markets, period, end of sentence, and they're going

150
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: to have to make a deal to do it. That's

151
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: why this Wall Street freak out that we've been witnessing

152
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: has been meaningless to me, because I know how this

153
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: story's going to eventually end.

154
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, So countries that run big surpluses again, Germany is

155
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 5: a good example of that. China a little bit different

156
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 5: story because their citizens have no say in anything. The

157
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 5: government just decides these are countries that can't respond to tariffs,

158
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 5: are tarifs with a reciprocal tariff why for exactly the

159
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 5: reasons you're saying, the costs are very difficult to bear.

160
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 5: They're trying to make up for the fact that they

161
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 5: have a lot of production, excess production that they're not

162
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 5: absorbing in their domestic economies. The better thing for them

163
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 5: to do, and I think this is ultimately where we

164
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 5: need to get with China because they're the biggest problem

165
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 5: in all of this, is to push them to make

166
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 5: more domestic investments, to push their own consumption levels up,

167
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 5: to fix the problem in the economy in China in particular,

168
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 5: so that they've become a domestic market that has real

169
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 5: consumption and where Chinese workers are making more. That's actually

170
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 5: good for America because we're having a hard time competing

171
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 5: against their non market practices, their surplus trade. It's actually

172
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 5: killing competitiveness and it has been for a while. So

173
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 5: this system has to be reoriented, it has to shift.

174
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 5: And what we've seen so far coming from this administration

175
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 5: is the shock that now gives us this opportunity to reorient.

176
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 5: The question now is how do we take this opportunity

177
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 5: and turn it into the right system, the right frame

178
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 5: for ensuring that we have even security economic prosperity in

179
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 5: this country.

180
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so let's use Germany as an example. They have

181
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: a ten percent tariff on automobiles for against us. We

182
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: only have two and a half percent against them. But

183
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: then they got something called the value added TACKS of

184
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: that tax. That tax is a national sales tax, so

185
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: that's twenty percent. So for an American car to be

186
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: sold in Germany, that's a thirty percent rise in sticker price,

187
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: which makes it cost prohibitive for the people of Germany

188
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: if they even wanted to buy an American car, And

189
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: that's why they sell nearly ten German cars in America

190
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: to our one car that we sell there. That's not

191
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: fair to American auto manufacturers, it's not fair to UAW workers,

192
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: it's not fair to anybody. And the fact that this

193
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: is even complicated or controversial to some people is mind

194
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: numbing to me.

195
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 5: Yeah. So these costs are different forms within the system,

196
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 5: and the VAT tax is certainly one of them. I

197
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 5: remember when I lived in Europe, I bought a car

198
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 5: and I paid thirty percent more than I would have

199
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 5: I had bought it in the US, but I didn't

200
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 5: have a choice because I had to buy a car.

201
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 5: So yes, these are barriers, and they make certain products

202
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 5: much more expensive, well all products in the case of

203
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 5: the VAT tax in the EU. So I think it's

204
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 5: right to look at these as barriers to what we

205
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 5: want to move towards, which is a freer ultimately a

206
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 5: freer trade environment where we can correct some of these

207
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 5: deficiencies in the system. But it's very difficult to get

208
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 5: countries to move off things like the vattas. These are

209
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 5: sources of revenue that are pretty serious, particularly for the EU,

210
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 5: so that's not going to be an easy shift. On

211
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 5: the other hand, the fact that there's a conversation happening

212
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 5: or about to happen with the Europeans it's a really

213
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 5: good sign because if we can get a line with

214
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 5: Europe and come to an agreement that is better for

215
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 5: us and certainly acceptable to them ultimately, and that includes

216
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 5: a formalizing a position against China, which again is the

217
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 5: biggest problem that we face right now, that would be

218
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 5: very powerful. So we might actually have a shot at

219
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 5: creating the kinds of alliances, economic alliances that are necessary

220
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 5: to push back against what should be a common enemy,

221
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 5: which is the crazy system of the Chinese Communist Party.

222
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: All right, quick break, we'll come right back. We are

223
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: with Elaine Dozinski and we'll get to more with her

224
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 1: on the other side. We'll also get your calls coming

225
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: up this hour eight hundred and nine to four one

226
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: sean as we continue from the Swamp DC. Straight ahead,

227
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 1: we continue now with Elaine Dozinski, and we're talking about

228
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 1: the tariff situation. Do you remember when Angela Merkel was

229
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 1: lead Germany and Donald Trump handed her a white flag

230
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 1: and she's like, well, what is this. He goes, well,

231
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: you just surrendered. It's the white flag a surrender. This

232
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,439
Speaker 1: actually happened. And she goes, what are you talking about?

233
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: And he goes, well, you just did a multi multi

234
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: billion dollar energy deal with Vladimir Putin.

235
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 3: You surrendered.

236
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: You know, the whole NATO alliance in large part was created,

237
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 1: as you know, a military alliance against the threat of Russia.

238
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 1: And now he's also saying, no, no, no, we want to

239
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: have part of this deal that you purchase American energy

240
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: because of the President's energy dominance goal and selling our

241
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: energy to Europe would certainly be good. It would be

242
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: in their best national interest in country by country, I

243
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: think they'd be better off because they have a better

244
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 1: ally in the United States than Russia.

245
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 5: Yeah. Absolutely, So that was a really a strategic mistake

246
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 5: on the part of Germany. Well, two things. Number one

247
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 5: that they shut down their nuclear facilities. I think they're

248
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 5: really regretting that. And number two that they have what

249
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 5: I call a dual pronged autocratic challenge. They've relied on

250
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 5: Russia for chief gas, and they relied on China as

251
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 5: a primary export market, and in both instances they're running

252
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 5: into big, big challenges. So yeah, it would.

253
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: Be I think it compromises them, it makes them beholden to,

254
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: you know, our top geopolitical foes. That's why when the

255
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: Chancellor did this, I thought it was a huge mistake.

256
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a real problem, particularly for German industry, right

257
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 5: because they have geared their supply chains in that way.

258
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: All right, Elaine, we really appreciate it, Elaine Dozinski. Thank

259
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,720

Speaker 1: is Washington. Maybe tomorrow's day is going to be the swamp.

273
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 3: You can't confuse people with that.

274
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 10: You know.

275
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: The best part when Linda shows up and I actually

276
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: see her face to face is and James can confirm this,

277
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: you know when she's at a distance. You know, there's

278
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: normal Linda, fun Linda, you know, witty Linda.

279
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 3: I am always a good time.

280
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: And then there's Linda Blair Linda when she's but it's

281
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: only when she's not around you.

282
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 3: You know what I did today? What did you did today?

283
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 4: I have been on my hands and knees in this

284
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 4: studio getting it all wired up and ready for you.

285
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: Work very hard. I never if I have a questioned

286
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: your work. You do a great job. I said it publicly,

287
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: you know. But you want me to just sit here

288
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: and praise you the way the way?

289
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 3: That would be weird. No, that's not what I want.

290
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: Okay, everybody shows you know the love languages you ever do.

291
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 3: The yes minus service.

292
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 4: I'm not here.

293
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 3: I forget what mine is.

294
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: It was too long ago that I have no idea

295
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: what it is. Oh my gosh, Vincent Michigan.

296
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 3: Vince, you're on the Sean Hannity Show.

297
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 6: What's up, Vince Hey, Good afternoon, mister Hannity. It's a pleasure, sir.

298
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 3: The pleasure is all mine. Glad you called.

299
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 6: The reason for my call is I'm watching what's happening

300
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 6: to Elon Musk and I'm here for Michigan. And I

301
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 6: have a doge hat and I wear it everywhere I go.

302
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 6: I get dirty looks. People should be grateful for what

303
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 6: this guy is doing for our country and what he's

304
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 6: putting himself through. A guy that self made worth over

305
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 6: three hundred billion dollars. He doesn't need to do this.

306
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 6: He's doing it because of his love for the country,

307
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 6: and he's done.

308
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: So many good things for the country, including rescuing astronauts,

309
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: helping people that don't have communications after hurricanes and wildfires.

310
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: You know, he provides starlink to hundreds of countries around

311
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: the world. I mean, what this guy is offering this

312
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: country by cutting out waste, broad and abuse. Well, what

313
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: has he done to engender this hatred, this rage? It's terrible,

314
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: you know. Now the threats against his life are absolutely

315
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: skyrocketed through the roof.

316
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 6: It's insane, it's insane, It's not fair, And I think

317
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 6: that every single American should take a look at Will already. Well,

318
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 6: what does he saved us one hundred and forty billion dollars?

319
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 6: He's uncovered waste, fraud and abuse.

320
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 3: You know what? And how lucky your weed that he

321
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 3: found it? You know you think about it.

322
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: Let me let me just tell you this because I

323
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: did this last night on TV and we talked about

324
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 1: it earlier in the show. There's a survey that just

325
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: came out. Fifty percent of leftists said that they could

326
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: somewhat justify an Elon Musk assassination. Fifty percent of leftists

327
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: know what's higher for Trump, It's fifty five percent said

328
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 1: that they could somewhat justify an assassination against Donald Trump.

329
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 1: Fifty eight percent of these lunatics on the left said

330
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 1: destroying a Tesla dealership is partially acceptable. I mean, this

331
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: is madness. That's why I did a whole special last

332
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 1: night on the rise of the radical Left.

333
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 4: But here's what's crazy, right, You've got these people at

334
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: the protests and if you got like I had one

335
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 4: in my neighborhood.

336
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 3: Just on Saturday, Oh boy, yeah, it was not a

337
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 3: good time. Did you show up?

338
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 10: Oh?

339
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 4: I was going food shopping, you know, and they parked

340
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 4: in the food shopping place, and you know, they're absurd.

341
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 4: But what's more absurd when you see them and people

342
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 4: come up to you and they're like, oh, are you

343
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 4: here for the Are here for the rally? No, I'm

344
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 4: not here for the rally. I'm here to buy eggs.

345
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 4: I'm like, like a normal person. Oh, there's a rally

346
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 4: around the corner. So I'm in the store and this

347
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 4: woman says to me, oh, did you see did you see?

348
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 4: I said, yeah, a bunch of libtards. It's the worst.

349
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 4: I'm like, and she's like, oh my god, I was

350
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:28,679
Speaker 4: just there. I'm like, oh, so there you go. So

351
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 4: you know, I was like, you know, good luck with that.

352
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 4: They're more man at him than what he found out.

353
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 3: I don't it does.

354
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: It defies all common sense and logic. It is what

355
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: we went through and what they put Donald Trump through

356
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: for four years. The good news is this, and I

357
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: said this last night. If you look at politics, it's

358
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 1: usually about addition. Donald Trump brought people a new coalition together,

359
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:05,360
Speaker 1: hard working men and women, more young people, more African Americans,

360
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 1: more Hispanic Americans, more women. It's about addition. Your ideas

361
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 1: bring people to the table. Listening to these idiots, you

362
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: know that wouldn't stand for the mothers of slain children

363
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: and holding up bingo cards and won't stand for a

364
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: young man with cancer, and you know, stand up for

365
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 1: the right of men to play women's sports and the

366
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: rights of trendy Aragua gang members over the safety of

367
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: Americans and you know, scream constitutional crisis. If God forbid,

368
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 1: you find hundreds of billions of dollars and ways for

369
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 1: auden abuse. They're not adding anybody with their slogans, their

370
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: bingo cards. They're singing and they're chanting, and you know,

371
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: dragging out of the grave. Neil Young and Joan baiez

372
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just insane what they're doing.

373
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 3: Are you happy now?

374
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: Yes, back to our busy phones. Appreciate Evince, thank you.

375
00:20:58,880 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: Let us say hi.

376
00:20:59,680 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 3: Will.

377
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: On the same topic, John is in my free state

378
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: of Florida. I missed my free state. Hope you're holding

379
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: down the Ford today.

380
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 11: Good afternoon, sir. First of all, make sure you wipe

381
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 11: your feet on the way out of that swamp.

382
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 3: Oh I'm doing more than wiping my feet, trust me.

383
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 11: I was. You know. It goes back to you know,

384
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 11: George Floyd and all that stuff, all these quote unquote

385
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 11: free or peaceful protests like burning car dealerships and burning

386
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 11: cars and charging stations. Somebody's paying for this, and why

387
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 11: can't Pam Bondy get to the bottom of who's behind this,

388
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 11: like maybe George and Alex Soros and these other lefty

389
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 11: billionaires and put them in prison for insurrection, for causing

390
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 11: an insurrection.

391
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: They are going to where the money is coming from.

392
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 1: They have said up publicly, if you're funding this, we

393
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: will hold you account. They've been very very clear.

394
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 11: Why can't they make it public? Why can't they say

395
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 11: who's funding it?

396
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: Because it's an investigation. You don't give away where you

397
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: are in the middle of an investigation. Oh, that wouldn't

398
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: make sense, right.

399
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 11: I thought it was easy. I thought, you know, they

400
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 11: are these are the guys causing the chaos, causing the insurrection.

401
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 1: They're going to deny it and say no, no, we

402
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 1: were just giving money for peaceful protest.

403
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 3: They'll deny it.

404
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 1: So it's probably going to be hard to tie them

405
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: to the actual violence, and they'll say, well, we're not

406
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 1: responsible with people that are violent or people that are

407
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: domestic terrorism, even though our money is facilitating it. But

408
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: you know, I could see a case being brought about

409
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 1: aiding in a betting, couldn't you.

410
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 11: Oh? Absolutely, I'd like to see him all in jail,

411
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 11: including the Democrats.

412
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,199
Speaker 1: Well, anyway, I will tell you it is sick, but

413
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 1: it shows the state of the sad state of the

414
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: Democratic Party. Anyway, John, thanks for holding down the fort.

415
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 1: I will be back in the free state of Florida tomorrow.

416
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: Can't wait to get that freezing here today in the swamp.

417
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 1: Kevin is in the swamp, Kevin, how are you glad

418
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: you called Sart? Glad you're with us?

419
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 7: Hey, Sean, always a pleasure to talk to you, my friend.

420
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 3: Thank you.

421
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 7: Huh if people do not understand terras and the word

422
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 7: this being left out of here is reciprocal. Okay, China

423
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 7: has still not intellectual property. Then they tear iff what

424
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 7: they can't steal to me, Sean, it's like working all

425
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 7: week long and when you walk out with your paycheck,

426
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 7: when when you've had those you and I when we

427
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 7: were growing up, it's like given thirty percent to somebody

428
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 7: because you make a product that their people want. And

429
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 7: as the Democrats always say, well, terrorists don't work. If

430
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 7: terrorists don't work, Sean, then why doever countries have them

431
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 7: against aronums?

432
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: You know, I wish I'd thought of that. It's so

433
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: it's so obvious what you just said. It's not an

434
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: argument I made up to this point. Yeah, why if

435
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 1: tariffs are so horrible, why are they putting them on us?

436
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: It's such a good point. And what and why do

437
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 1: people if we demand, why are people so willing to

438
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,959
Speaker 1: accept for decade after decade after decade, the idea that

439
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: they rip us off?

440
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 3: Why are they willing to accept that? I'm not willing

441
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 3: to accept that.

442
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 7: Okay, didn't George hw Bush give Chyna favorite Nate trade

443
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 7: nation back in nineteen eighty nine, and they have been

444
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 7: ripping us off every since. Take Japan. To even sell

445
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 7: a Haley Davison in Japan and I will station over there,

446
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 7: you pay a thirty to thirty five tariff.

447
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: You pay over two hundred percent if we want to

448
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 1: American farmers want to sell their rice in Japan. Again,

449
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 1: these are supposed to be allied nations. You know, why

450
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: does Germany slap a thirty percent tax when you include

451
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,439
Speaker 1: the ten percent tariff and the twenty percent fat tax

452
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: on us and and they get to sell almost ten

453
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: ten German cars in America versus our one car in Germany.

454
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 3: You know what I know?

455
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: With friends like these, who needs enemies? They're not being

456
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 1: friendly towards the US. And then to whine and bitch

457
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: and moan and complain the way they are as if

458
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: it's the worst thing that's ever happened in the world.

459
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 3: Just it's just blogoney.

460
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 7: Not only that, Sean, Okay, take a take something like spam.

461
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 7: Spam cost three twenty seven cents in your average dollar

462
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 7: store to sell it in Asia. Guess what, it's eight

463
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 7: nine dollars over there because of the terriffs. Why are

464
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 7: we funding other people's economic prosperity. They list themselves as

465
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 7: developing economies and then basically care if everything that we

466
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 7: send to them. They have appetite for American products, but

467
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 7: then they care if a sport. And this is called free,

468
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 7: free and fair trade. Come on, man, please.

469
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.

470
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: And everyone whinds, bitches, moans, complains. I'm so sick of it.

471
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: And in the stock market Wall streeters, let me tell

472
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 1: you something about Wall Street. These guys on Wall Street,

473
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 1: and I've known a lot of them all those years

474
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: I wasted in New York, and I can tell you

475
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 1: that they make money when stocks go up, and they

476
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: make money when stocks go down. How many of them

477
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: might have shorted the market knowing the date that the

478
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: tariffs were going to be announced. It just it makes

479
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: you wonder. Do I know for sure? No, I don't,

480
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: but I will tell you I just don't put my

481
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: faith in Wall Street. I have said it during Democratic administrations.

482
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: I've set it during Republican administrations. Anyway, good call, Kevin,

483
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 1: appreciate it from our nation's capital.

484
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 3: All right, quick break right back to our phones.

485
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: Eight hundred ninety four one, Shawn, if you want to

486
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 1: be a part of the program, as we continue up

487
00:26:53,080 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: next our final roundup and information overload hours. Let's get

488
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: back to our busy phones as we continue from the

489
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: DC Swamp, Greg in Arizona Next Sean Hannity Show, Greg,

490
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 1: how are you glad you called?

491
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 11: I'm glad to be talking to you.

492
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 10: And you may remember Jim Bohannon. He was my first

493
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 10: national video appearance a long time ago on the topic.

494
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 10: And I figure you might know that name because he

495
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 10: was an early version of you.

496
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 3: Shall we say, I call oh wow? An early version

497
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 3: of me? Was it?

498
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:37,199
Speaker 6: Like?

499
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 3: Am I cloned? And I don't know it?

500
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 10: Well? He was somebody who took on the tough stuff

501
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 10: and let people voice. And I feel you let people

502
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,120
Speaker 10: do that. But I'm calling about urgency, and the urgency

503
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:53,120
Speaker 10: is the bumper music you played was blinded by the light.

504
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 10: And the reason that the public doesn't understand what's going

505
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,199
Speaker 10: on is the haters and those who want to hurt

506
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 10: America and profiteer in America are better liars and better

507
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 10: haters at messaging. We have before now who knew what

508
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 10: a tariff was. We are not a linguistic nation. No

509
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 10: one knows what a tariff is. It's taxes and the

510
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 10: taxes that preclude us selling in another country. Mean we

511
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 10: don't get jobs. I mean we don't get raises, and

512
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 10: so we become stagnant while others get rich. So part one,

513
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,479
Speaker 10: people don't understand in simple personal terms how it's going

514
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 10: to hurt me. I might lose a job, my son

515
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 10: can't get a job, my daughter won't get a raise

516
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 10: because the money is going somewhere else. And then as

517
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 10: we touch on besides the taxation, we talked about the

518
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 10: taxation and saving of money, we're not putting it in

519
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 10: consumer terms. We're not saying, missus Jones or mister Wilson,

520
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 10: you have to work ten days this year to pay

521
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 10: for research studies on garbage in Botswana. So how do

522
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 10: we make this? And you're beautiful when you talk about

523
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 10: the things you endorse, which I know you believe in

524
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 10: your integrity. You help me see it, feel it, taste it,

525
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 10: and touch it.

526
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. And by the way, I don't endorse

527
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: products I don't believe in.

528
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 3: I don't do it.

529
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: And there's a whole laundry list of people that I

530
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: you know, that have wanted to advertise and I'm like,

531
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: it's not something I believe in.

532
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 3: And I just won't do it.

533
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: And thankfully I work and partner with a company that

534
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: respects my decision. Because if you don't have integrity at

535
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: the end of the day, what do you have left?

536
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,719
Speaker 1: I mean, when you're on your death ped you know,

537
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 1: what are you going to be thinking about? Are you

538
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: going to be thinking about, Oh, I wish I lived

539
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: a more immoral life, or are you going to be

540
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: wishing maybe you are a better person. I think it's

541
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: pretty obvious. I'll give you the well, we got to run.

542
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: We're up on a heart break here. Eight hundred and

551
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 1: the way, isn't it strange that the first foreign leader

552
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 1: to visit Donald Trump was Prime Minister net And Yaho,

553

555
