00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: We need somebody that's going to hit a paper's.

5
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 2: Voice the truth the mainstream won't touch.

6
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: This guy is by definition a global and the stories

7
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 1: that matter rabs own Ben burklob.

8
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 3: Reredit of Miss Hill Cartel.

9
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: I see I see him, see.

10
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 2: Him live, breaking news right now here in Real America's

11
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 2: Voice filtered.

12
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: These people are domestic terrorists and unapologetic. We're here to

13
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: take a stand for God and country. Let's feel good.

14
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: America's Voice Live starts now.

15
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: And welcome to America's Voice Live. I'm Steve. It is Thursday,

16
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 2: the seventh of August, in the year of Our Lord,

17
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. Let's get to the day's top choice

18
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 2: is always thank you for spending time with us here

19
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 2: on Real America's Voice. First up, today, President Trump said

20
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 2: to me with Russia's President Vladimir Putin, potentially followed by

21
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 2: a meeting with President's Olensky of Ukraine and Putin as well.

22
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 2: Trump optimistic about this upcoming dialogue with Putin. We'll see

23
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: if it comes together. Then we'll talk about a recent

24
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 2: Pew Research data pool that shows a massive gain for

25
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: Republican voter preference. These numbers show a big shift in

26
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 2: favor of the Republican Party.

27
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: It's important.

28
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 2: And finally, the Texas redistricting efforts continue to be halted

29
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: as the Democrats who fled the state continue.

30
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 1: To be mia.

31
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: The Texas House of Representatives hasn't reached a quorum.

32
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: Due to the absence of the Democrats. That will get corrected.

33
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: All of that coming your way.

34
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 2: And also President Trump could be in the Oval Office

35
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 2: any moment now.

36
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: We're going to keep an eye on this.

37
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 2: He is expected to sign an executive order that will

38
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 2: impact four oh one k's and the nine trillion dollars

39
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 2: in the US pension market.

40
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: What would it mean for you? We'll keep an eye

41
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: on that. If he comes out, we'll go straight to it.

42
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: But we start here.

43
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: Man's original sin was the temptation to play god. It

44
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 2: got Satan kicked out of heaven, and Adam, you've kicked.

45
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: Out of the garden. You might remember.

46
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 2: We just love the idea of controlling our old world

47
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 2: with omnipotent precision. And I'm seeing this play out right now,

48
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: especially with these Canadian wildfires.

49
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: We hear quite a bit about sixteen and a half

50
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: million acres.

51
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: Are on fire in Canada right now. Let me say

52
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 2: that again. Sixteen and a half million acres. That's more

53
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: than twenty five thousand square miles. That's bigger by comparison

54
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: to the state of West Virginia. This year on track

55
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 2: to be one of the worst years for wildfires for

56
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 2: our northern neighbors in a long time, and we're seeing

57
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,679
Speaker 2: the results, especially if you live in the northern tier

58
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 2: of the United States like I do. We've been under

59
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 2: air quality warnings for a good portion of the summer

60
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 2: as the smoke creates a hayes in our skies.

61
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: Day after day.

62
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: It's inconvenient for us, and it's devastating for them, to

63
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 2: say the least.

64
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: But I got to say I came and help. But

65
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: rolling my eyes to a letter from a Republican congressman.

66
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 2: And one that I like very much, by the way,

67
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,399
Speaker 2: telling Canada to fix the fires or else. Here's Congressman

68
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: Tom Tiphany of Wisconsin who authored the letter.

69
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: Listen, we can do a.

70
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 4: Really good job of detection as well as putting out fires.

71
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 4: At this point, the technology is really incredible at this point,

72
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 4: Canada should be implementing some of those technologies. I know

73
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 4: as chairman of the Federal Lands Committee Subcommittee, we are

74
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 4: pushing our federal agencies to adopt some of these newer

75
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 4: technologies that can detect fire as very soon before.

76
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: They become big. Yeah.

77
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 2: Well, that's nice in all but Americas and Canadians want

78
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: a wild fire free summer.

79
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: I get it, but there's no use trying to play god.

80
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: You can't stop a sixteen and a half million acre

81
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 2: fire at the drop of a dime.

82
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: Cana's already using.

83
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: Every tool of can to fight the fires, and the

84
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: United States is providing support.

85
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: But wildfires happened.

86
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: I actually want to remind you of what happened in

87
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 2: the nineteen seventies and eighties. For most of the twentieth century,

88
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 2: especially after a big fire in nineteen ten, the US

89
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 2: had a very strict policy. They put every wildfares as

90
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 2: fast as they could, even aiming to stop them by

91
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 2: ten o'clock the next morning. That was the way they

92
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 2: did it. The thinking back then was that all fire

93
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: was bad, But by the nineteen sixties and seventies, scientists

94
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 2: and land managers started realizing that fire is actually part

95
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 2: of the natural cycle. It's it's there as part of

96
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 2: these ecosystem and suppressing every fire was causing dangerous fuel

97
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: build up dead falls in wood.

98
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: It led to even worse fires. So starting in the

99
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: late seventies, and especially after the big Yellowstone fires of

100
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty eight, the approach shifted towards managing fire more thoughtfully,

101
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: allowing some fires to burn naturally, and using controlled burns

102
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: to keep forest healthy when possible.

103
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 2: But we can't and shouldn't stop every wildfire. It's part

104
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: of nature, the cycle of life, if you will. In fact,

105
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 2: lodgepole pines among other tree species, actually require fire to reproduce.

106
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: It aske to be one hundred and twenty five degrees

107
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 2: if you didn't know, for the cone to open up,

108
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: And these big fires create their own weather system, bringing

109
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 2: in air for the bottom, shooting it out the top,

110
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 2: and those little tiny seeds from the cones float.

111
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: Down range to make well new trees and new forests.

112
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 2: None of this matters, of course, to the green New

113
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 2: Deals zealots, because no one is more obsessed with playing

114
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: god than the left wing climate change fanatics, and they're predictably,

115
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: predictably blaming these wildfires and climate change. Of course, as

116
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: they've done in the past. When this happened two years

117
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 2: ago in Canada.

118
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: Listen to this, I wear my mask is solidarity. Climate

119
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: change is not a hoax. We're not only seeing the

120
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: haze from these fires, we're also feeling it in our

121
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 1: very own lungs.

122
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 5: And we cannot ignore that climate change continues to make

123
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 5: these disasters worse. The work to protect our climate is

124
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 5: far from over, and we're dangerously behind.

125
00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: But none of this.

126
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 6: Is new.

127
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: Do you remember Al Gore? He started this campaign, this charade,

128
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 1: all the way back in the nineteen eighties.

129
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: That's when he started pulling the alarm bells, breaking glass.

130
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 2: He said it was hard to get people to care

131
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 2: or to listen. Gee, I wonder why here he is.

132
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: The biggest problem that.

133
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 7: Anyone in the Congress has in addressing a problem this

134
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 7: big is that it seems so remote from our everyday

135
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 7: experience that it doesn't appear to justify a visceral political

136
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 7: response that says, let's do something about it.

137
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: It seems too remote.

138
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 7: However, our industrial civilization has reached the stage now where

139
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 7: we evidently can have global effects, and those effects can

140
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 7: take place over a long period of time, and in

141
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 7: order to stop them you have to act early on.

142
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 7: So we have to deal with a greater amount of

143
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 7: uncertainty than we have in the past.

144
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: So how did they fix this problem of urgency.

145
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 2: Well, they started blaming every single natural disaster on climate change,

146
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 2: no matter what, it was all climate change, every single time.

147
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: And it was magical.

148
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 2: Climate change explained everything, I mean everything, too much rain,

149
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: climate change, drought, climate change, big snowstorm, climate change, ice, wind, rain,

150
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. It was all climate change. Earthquakes, hurricanes, wildfires.

151
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, earthquakes, think about that. Over on the view, they.

152
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 2: Blamed the eclipse, the eclipse on climate change, all to

153
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: give the government more and more control over the energy sector,

154
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 2: over how much water can be in your toileble, and

155
00:07:55,360 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: mostly over you climate scientists to go all in on

156
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: global geoengineering in the name of playing God.

157
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: Listen to this crack pot.

158
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 8: Some of the modeling that's been done in terms of

159
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 8: what it would require to literally change the planet right

160
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 8: is in a moderate scenario of like fifteen years, which

161
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 8: given the fact that we're not cutting emissions fast enough,

162
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 8: we're going to have to do something like solar geo

163
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 8: engineering for much longer than that. Right, there's a there's

164
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 8: work that's been done that suggests that we're going to

165
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 8: have to have continually flying aircraft which don't exist. We

166
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 8: don't have the aircraft that can go high enough with

167
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:42,199
Speaker 8: the big enough payload from multiple different bases placed along

168
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,599
Speaker 8: across the planet sixty one thousand flights a year for

169
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 8: many decades. Right, So we're going to have a huge

170
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 8: intervention of aircraft continually spraying sulfur dioxide or whatever chemical

171
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 8: compounds that they come up with that works.

172
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: You're saying that's what it would take. Yeah, Ken Trail's anyone.

173
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 2: These people will control whatever and mostly whomever they can.

174
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 2: And they're already practicing cloud seating all across you. And

175
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 2: I says, this is nothing new. It has been going

176
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 2: on since the nineteen forties. That's no conspiracy theory. It's

177
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 2: a real attempt to buy the government to play god

178
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 2: and control rainfall.

179
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: Here's a newscast from twelve years ago. Watch this one

180
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: hard hit area of Texas.

181
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: Some people have grown tired of waiting for Mother Nature

182
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 2: to bring relief and have decided to try and take.

183
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: Matters into their own hands. Here's ABC's Juju Chang.

184
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 9: Craigfunky is flying me to the edge of a violent thunderstorm.

185
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 7: You see how and I think Chris at the top

186
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 7: of that cloud is up there.

187
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 9: Yeah, But the former commercial pilot isn't some adrenaline junkie

188
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 9: corning danger. He's a cloud seater chasing this menacing storm

189
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 9: to squeeze out extra rain for the drought stricken farmland below.

190
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 7: As a pilot going through school, you're taught to avoid thunderstorm.

191
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 9: This is Craig's job, firing chemicals into the clouds in

192
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,959
Speaker 9: a controversial attempt to modify the weather. He's literally a

193
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 9: rain maker.

194
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 2: A rain maker in Texas. Does the Guadalupe River come

195
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: to mind? You know, the rivers in central Texas rows

196
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: more than twenty five feet, some dramatically more in minutes

197
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 2: or a couple of hours during those historic flooding just

198
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 2: last month, killing all.

199
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: Of those children.

200
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 2: You don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to question

201
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: if playing God has its consequences. You can't outlaw wildfighters,

202
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,560
Speaker 2: you can't change rain patterns without consequence, and you can't

203
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 2: expect to replace fossil fuels with solar panels and windmills

204
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 2: for an.

205
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: Entire modern industrialized country. Nothing says, let's say the planet though,

206
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: like bulldozing acres and acres of land for solar panels.

207
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 2: Made in China with heavy metals by child labor. Yeah,

208
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 2: that's going to save the planet. And then after billions

209
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 2: are spent, the project can just get scrapped.

210
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: Here's one example. If you haven't heard of this, this

211
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: is jaw dropping from the Mojave Desert. Listen to this.

212
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,719
Speaker 10: The Ivanpah Concentrated Solar Array. There's hundreds of thousands of

213
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 10: merrors that use computers to reflect the Sun's energy as

214
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 10: the sun moves at these three giant towers bigger than

215
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 10: the Statue of Liberty. They boil water, which creates steam

216
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 10: to create electricity. And when it was installed in twenty fourteen,

217
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 10: it was one of the cutting edge options for a

218
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 10: cleaner energy future. But it turns out that those mirrors

219
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 10: are really hard to move in the desert right there,

220
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 10: and boiling water and doing all of that is super complicated.

221
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 10: Oh and by the way, that concentrated heat would fry

222
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 10: birds in flight as they flew through the paths. It

223
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 10: was also a threat to the desert tortoise. So a

224
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 10: lot of groups hated this thing, and now it looks

225
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 10: like they are winding it down right now. About a

226
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 10: billion and a half little over federal loan money went

227
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 10: into that. Unclear how much of that will get paid back.

228
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: Uh Ivan Pah looked at up. Did you hear what

229
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: he said there? It incinerated the birds flying through and

230
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: threatened the desert tortoise as well. Nothing says I love

231
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 1: Mother Earth quite like that.

232
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 2: There's no comprehensive sustainable disposable method for stuff like this either.

233
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,719
Speaker 1: How do you get rid of hundreds of millions of

234
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 1: mirrors in a way that's not damaging to the environment.

235
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: It's the same problem with eves, of course, and the

236
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 2: batteries that are being built. We're trying to undermine nature

237
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 2: with windmills, solar panels, cloud seating.

238
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: We are not God, news flash, We never will be.

239
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: We can devote trillions and trillions of dollars in a

240
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 2: green new deal, but then something like this will always happen.

241
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 2: An eight point eight magnitude earthquake in far eastern Russia,

242
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,599
Speaker 2: subsequently setting off a string of seven active volcanoes for

243
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 2: the first time. For some it as much as six

244
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty years part of Russia's southern peninsula has

245
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 2: just completely shifted positions as a result. It's it's just different.

246
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 2: Global geoengineering isn't going to do anything about that, now,

247
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 2: is it. And the climate agenda only exists to rake

248
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 2: in tax dollars and hand over more control of the

249
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: government over you. It asks a lot of you and

250
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 2: provides nothing in return, because natural cycles will always win

251
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 2: over man made interventions. God bless America, please, and today

252
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: I mean that well more than ever. Coming up after

253
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 2: the break, President Trump may be meeting with Russia's Vladimir

254
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 2: Putin as early as next week. We'll see how that

255
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 2: plays out. How would the president go about dealing with Putin?

256
00:13:53,200 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 2: That discussion straight ahead, all right, back atage here in

257
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 2: America's Voice Live on the Thursday. I broke the news

258
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 2: you live on this program yesterday that President Trump was

259
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 2: ready to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin as soon

260
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 2: as next week, with a following meeting with Putin and

261
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 2: Zelensky in the days that follow Now, the President was

262
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 2: asked about it yesterday and he seemed pretty optimistic.

263
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: Listen to this.

264
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 8: There's a very good chance that we could be ending

265
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 8: the ending the round ending the end of that road.

266
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: Road was long and continues to be long. But there's

267
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: a good chance that there will be meeting very soon.

268
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: I guess you know.

269
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 2: I'm going to take the position of I hope that

270
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: it happens, but I'll have to see it to really

271
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 2: believe it.

272
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: Join me out to discuss this.

273
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 2: Someone who knows the President's thinking when it comes to

274
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: foreign policy very well. She is the former Deputy National

275
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 2: Security Advisor to President Trump, as well as Vice president

276
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 2: of the Heritage Foundations Instant for National Security and Foreign Policy.

277
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: Victoria coach, Victoria, nice to see you again. Good to

278
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: see you, I say. I say, I'm not just going

279
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: to jump in and say this is great.

280
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 2: Putin has a way of saying, yes, I'm going to

281
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 2: do it, and then you pull back, come here, career,

282
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 2: get away, good away. So do you think it's going

283
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 2: to happen. How would you handicap this? Victoria, Well, I

284
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 2: think the.

285
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 11: Meeting probably will happen. I think that it would be

286
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 11: good for both of them. I think the president, President

287
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 11: Trump that is really wants to get a sense of

288
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 11: what Putin is thinking. He's been really frustrated by, as

289
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 11: you say, his nice words followed up by bombing another

290
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 11: hospital or something like that. So I think he'd like

291
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 11: to get that done. And on top of that, he's

292
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 11: really strengthened his hands through three things. First of all,

293
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 11: the Iran strike, which was very successful, showed that he

294
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 11: could go and use force get out of it and

295
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 11: not get into World War three. Second, the Hague summit

296
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 11: where he bludgeoned is maybe a nasty word for it.

297
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 11: He persuaded our NATO fellow NATO allies to get to

298
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 11: five percent of GDP on defense spending. And then these

299
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 11: sanctions that are to go into place tomorrow that that

300
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 11: is going to be real economic pain for Russia. I

301
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 11: don't know how much of that China is willing to

302
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 11: eat at this point, or whether they might start also

303
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 11: pressuring Russia to wrap this up, but I think we

304
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 11: are at least in a better place than we were

305
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 11: six months ago.

306
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 2: Clearly we are, and you know his thinking on foreign policy.

307
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 2: This is not a man who likes war. He made

308
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 2: the strike on Iran because he felt that was the

309
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 2: only course of action he could take to limit their

310
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: ability to create nuclear weapons.

311
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: But you look at his success with Indian Pakistan in.

312
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 2: A thirty year war in the heart of Africa, Thailand, Cambodia.

313
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: The list goes on.

314
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 2: He is willing to intervene and use economic pressure to say, look,

315
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 2: if you don't stop shooting, we're going to stop trading.

316
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 2: That seems to have a lot of a fact. It's

317
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: a great way to use the leverage that he has

318
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 2: of the United States economy.

319
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 11: It seems to me, what do you say now, I

320
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 11: couldn't agree more. And tomorrow we're going to have another one.

321
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,119
Speaker 11: We're going to have the announcement of the deal between

322
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 11: Armenia and Azerbaijan and the South Caucasus, which is important

323
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 11: to us because it's a strategic region. Azerbaijan is also

324
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 11: a major energy producer, can be a great partner to

325
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 11: the United States, and that they already have diplomatic relations

326
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 11: with Israel. That's a very strong relationship as well. And

327
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 11: Armenia of course is home to some of the oldest

328
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 11: Christian communities on the planet, and they were both former

329
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 11: Soviet republics. They both suffered mightily under the Soviet yoke.

330
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 11: Azerbaijan Muslim majority, Armenia Christian. Under the Soviets, you weren't

331
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 11: supposed to have a religion. So this has been a

332
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 11: very difficult situation for many, many years, and there was

333
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 11: a failed process called the min Mink Process, which was

334
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 11: initiated in nineteen ninety two trying to resolve this. One

335
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 11: of the things they're going to do tomorrow is dissolve

336
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:03,640
Speaker 11: the failed process and replace it with President Trump's plan

337
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 11: for communications corridor through the region, which will allow them

338
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 11: to get to a piece steal and it will allow

339
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 11: for more US investment in those energy companies, in that

340
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 11: energy infrastructure. So it's going to be more not just

341
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 11: more peace, but more prosperity for the United States.

342
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 1: Well, it certainly is, and it comes in times.

343
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 2: There's basically things that are running parallel here Victoria from

344
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 2: where I sit. And again, you know this far better

345
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 2: than I do. But you see the investments in the

346
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 2: United States, most recently yesterday from Tim Cook and Apple

347
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 2: six hundred billion dollars. But you see other organizations or

348
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 2: groups the EU one point four trillion dollars, Japan six

349
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 2: hundred billion dollars.

350
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: So you've got this going on.

351
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 2: You've got Donald Trump also using the power of the

352
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 2: United States economy to say, look, we don't want this

353
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 2: war going on between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of

354
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 2: Congo that went on for thirty years, and he was

355
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 2: able to go in there and get involved. So the

356
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 2: things that really seem to be problematic is Russia and you,

357
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 2: and of course what continues to go on in Gaza

358
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 2: that has not come to an end yet. I think

359
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 2: he'd like to see that conclude at sometime the near

360
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 2: future as well. How would you handicap the possibility of

361
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 2: a peace deal with Ukraine? Look, I have believed for

362
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 2: a long time Russia is never giving back the Eastern provinces,

363
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 2: the don Boss and so forth.

364
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: That's going to stay with Russia. And if they want

365
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: a peace deal there, that's what they're going to have

366
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: to settle for in Kiev. Am I wrong?

367
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 11: Well, I'm just saying right now I am less pessimistic

368
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 11: than I have been on a potential peace deal between

369
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 11: Russia and Ukraine. Putin has moved a little bit in

370
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 11: recent days from no, I'm never ever going to meet

371
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 11: with President Zolensky under any circumstances to actually there are

372
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 11: circumstances I may meet with him. So I think he

373
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 11: is moving a little bit. Some of that may be

374
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 11: this threat of sanctions and the player to keep an

375
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 11: eye on Steve is India, because India is one of

376
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 11: the biggest importers of Russian energy at this point, along

377
00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 11: with China. That has all taken place over the la

378
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 11: last four or five years. It doesn't have to be.

379
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 11: We can work with our partner India. We can come

380
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 11: up with alternative sources for them and get them to

381
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 11: a much better place. That's real pressure on Russia. We've

382
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 11: seen Opek raised production rates in recent days. That will

383
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 11: bring prices down globally. Again bad for Russia, great for

384
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 11: the American people, but bad for Russia.

385
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 2: But the one bit of defiance, though, does come from India.

386
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 2: Apparently Modi is not too concerned. He still wants to

387
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 2: buy oil from Russia. So that is problematic Victoria. We'll

388
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 2: see where that plays out. It would be nice if

389
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 2: nobody bought oil from Russia. I know that we're supplying

390
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 2: natural gas now to Europe. Great thing for American energy suppliers,

391
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: bad thing for Russia. If you could same thing for Iran,

392
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 2: If you could squeeze off the spick it and stop

393
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 2: the energy from flowing, we would really curtail a lot

394
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 2: of our problems. When it comes to foreign affairs, including

395
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 2: Iran and Russian elsewhere.

396
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: Give you the last word.

397
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 11: No, I think that's true. And the first Trump term

398
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 11: got India off of Iranian imports, which was an even

399
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 11: more severe problem for them. So this can be done.

400
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 11: It's difficult, and I think maybe the president's doing a

401
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 11: little good cop batcop with India. He wants them to

402
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 11: know we're serious, We're not that he's not the Biden

403
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 11: administration encouraging them to buy that energy. So I think

404
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,679
Speaker 11: we can get to a much better place with India.

405
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 1: Well, I appreciate that, Victoria. I always appreciates you being.

406
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 2: Here as well. Thank you for your insights. Thank you,

407
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 2: and you know, if you're keeping score at home, and

408
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 2: you should be. Thailand, Cambodia, Trump intervenes caused the ceasefire

409
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 2: July twenty five, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo

410
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 2: June of twenty five, India, Pakistan, May of twenty five,

411
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 2: also Serbia, Kosovo, now Egypt, Ethiopia, and the list goes on.

412
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: This is a peace president. He sometimes has to flex

413
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: the muscle of the American military and the American economy,

414
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 1: but it is a peace president. It doesn't matter what

415
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 1: the critics say. Those are the facts that we have

416
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: in front of us, all right.

417
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 2: Coming up after the break, we are seeing big swings

418
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 2: to the GOP when it.

419
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: Comes to voter registration.

420
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 2: Is it a sign that the country is about to

421
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 2: get a lot more conservative? I say this with the

422
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 2: backdrop of the mayoral candidates in New York, Minneapolis, and

423
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 2: now Seattle.

424
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 1: I'll be back. You look around and there are some

425
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: mixed messages as I read the tea leaves.

426
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 2: But it's important because there's could be a big political change,

427
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 2: a shift, if you will, happening in America.

428
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: In some recent polls of voter affiliation.

429
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 2: Are an indication the country could be getting more conservative

430
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 2: these days. For example, take a look at this Pew

431
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 2: Research poll showing political affiliation by age and gender. Eighteen

432
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,679
Speaker 2: to twenty nine year old men show a fifty two

433
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 2: to thirty four percent lead favoring the Republicans.

434
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,959
Speaker 1: That is a forty four percent swing from just two

435
00:22:59,080 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: years ago.

436
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,239
Speaker 2: Among women in that age range, Democrats still hold an

437
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 2: advantage fifty eight thirty seven, but that's still is a

438
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 2: Republican swing of.

439
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: Fourteen points in two years.

440
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 2: In fact, you're seeing massive swings in favor of the

441
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 2: GOP in energy, age and gender groups, except for those

442
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 2: that the thirty to forty nine year old women and

443
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: men and women over sixty five.

444
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 1: So how about this.

445
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 2: In Colorado, one of the blue estates in the country,

446
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 2: sixteen and seventeen year olds are registering at a rate

447
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty for four percent higher than Democrats,

448
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty four percent higher than Democrats. Meanwhile,

449
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 2: Democrat leaders starting to support openly socialist candidates like we've

450
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 2: seen Zorin Mandami. Ken Martin, the Democrat National Committee Chair,

451
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 2: says he's fine with it.

452
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:47,639
Speaker 1: He does. He says, we have a big tent.

453
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 2: Let them all in Strange so as voters move more right,

454
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 2: the Democrat party moving farther left.

455
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 1: It makes no sense. How will it work out? Join

456
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,640
Speaker 1: me to discuss and pull it apart.

457
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 2: Analyst at Restore Restoration of American Grace, Riley Gray, is

458
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,199
Speaker 2: nice to see you today, and I.

459
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: Think much this is absolutely this is key.

460
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 2: We've seen voter surges or registration surges in oh Florida, Texas.

461
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: A lot of states that have been swing states aren't anymore. Look,

462
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 2: I don't think Florida is a swing state anymore. North Carolina.

463
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 2: North Carolina is not, Iowa is not. Ohio is not.

464
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 2: They've all become read why is this grace?

465
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, it's certainly true that as the left is

466
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 6: leaning more to the left and the Democrat Party is

467
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 6: endorsing leftist candidates, some of which are openly socialist candidates,

468
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 6: people aren't having it. It's not working with the American public,

469
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 6: and it's not working for Generation Z. Of course, Colorado

470
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 6: is a great case study of what it's like to

471
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 6: live under extreme leftist policy, and now, based on the

472
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 6: numbers that we're seeing, it seems like young people don't

473
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 6: want anything to do with it anymore, and we may

474
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 6: be shifting back or not excuse me, not lifting back,

475
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 6: but shifting forward in a way where maybe people are

476
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 6: leaning more to the right now. The twenty twenty four

477
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 6: election was pretty fascinating because one of the things that

478
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 6: it showed is that Gen Z and young people don't

479
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 6: have to just be in some leftist box like we've

480
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 6: always been told. I've always been told that my generation

481
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 6: is going to be more left and there's nothing I

482
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 6: can do about it. But I refuse to believe that,

483
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 6: and this is an indication of it in proof gen

484
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 6: Z was one of the main reasons that Trump was

485
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 6: successful in twenty twenty four, and these numbers out of

486
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 6: Colorado and other states show that that may be a

487
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 6: future trend and not just a one time thing like

488
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 6: some Democrats are saying it is.

489
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: I would agree with you on that, grace.

490
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 2: Look, I have said for a number of months now,

491
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 2: following the well the evidence that the people that are

492
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 2: eighteen to thirty years of age, the younger generation is

493
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 2: more conservative than any generation well in many, many years,

494
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 2: maybe since my own I saw this when I saw

495
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 2: University of North Carolina students surrounding flag poles and defending

496
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 2: it from anybody else putting a flag up there.

497
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: I saw it in the numbers in the twenty twenty

498
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: four election in November.

499
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 2: The numbers don't lie, and the antidotal evidence doesn't lie either.

500
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: Young people are more conservative. And maybe you're right. Maybe

501
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: there's second time to being told America is a terrible place.

502
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 2: Maybe there's second time being told that, oh, you're a

503
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 2: young white person, therefore you're this, or you're a black person,

504
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 2: so therefore you're that.

505
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: Maybe they just want to say, hey, we're Americans, and

506
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: we want to move forward. What about that for a concept.

507
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, I would absolutely agree with you and echo that

508
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 6: that's such a great point. And I think too, going

509
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 6: back to the leader of the DNC saying that he's

510
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 6: totally fine with socialists leading his party, this moved to

511
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 6: the radical left, and the endorsement from him obviously isn't working.

512
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 6: The left has been trending more and more to the

513
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,400
Speaker 6: left four years and we even just got to nationally

514
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 6: experience what those policies are like again, and it didn't

515
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 6: go very well for the Biden administration, and Americans did

516
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 6: not like living under the consequences of his film policies.

517
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 6: And with all this considers, it's absolutely outrageous that he

518
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 6: would endorse socialist candidates being a part of the Democrat

519
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 6: Party because in that he is completely endorsing and being

520
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 6: okay with the fact that leftism is taking over and

521
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 6: leading the party, and that's out of touch with the

522
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 6: American people who have experienced far too much. And as

523
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 6: you said, we're seeing this trend more towards conservatives, more

524
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 6: towards Republicans, And as a gen Z voter, I know

525
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 6: that for me and so many of my peers, we

526
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 6: were looking at what the best chance for us going

527
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 6: forward was when we were voting in twenty twenty four,

528
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 6: and the thing goes for state elections, but especially nationally.

529
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 6: It was important to me to be able to afford

530
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 6: a house someday, to have a better economy, and after

531
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 6: experiencing what happened under Biden, I wanted my best chance

532
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 6: with the best policies being proposed, which were proposed by Republicans.

533
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 6: And I think so many more yet, the younger generation,

534
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 6: so many more people who are waking up to what

535
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 6: the responsibilities of being an adult really are, are kind

536
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 6: of coming to this realization that there is a party

537
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 6: that's delivering much more and providing a better path forward

538
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 6: for Americans.

539
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: Providing hope for the future. That's what it is. Grace Riley,

Speaker 1: Coming up back to the break, we'll.

567
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 2: Discuss the Texas redistricting effort that is still at a

568
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 2: standstill despite the arrest wards issued to the Democrat representatives

569
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 2: who have fled the state.

570
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: More coming up.

571
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 2: All right, Well, the Texas redistricting f first hour at

572
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 2: a standstill, as you know, because the Democrats have fled

573
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 2: and pressed on with the revolt, staying in the Illinois,

574
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 2: you know, one of the states that has the most

575
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 2: gerrymandered districts there are. The last major development saw Texas

576
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 2: Governor Greg Abbott filling and sending out arrest warrants for

577
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 2: all the Democrat representatives that fled the state, citing the

578
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: fact that the decision to flee was them actively avoiding

579
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 2: the responsibility as elected officials. Texas House still hasn't reached

580
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 2: a quorum, even with Governor Abbot's efforts to bring back

581
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 2: the Democrat representatives who got out of the state joining

582
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 2: out to discuss this again as Texas state Representative Brisco Caine, Brisco,

583
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 2: nice to see you again. All right, So we're at

584
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 2: this standstill stand off with it. It's funny the Democrats

585
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 2: are comparing this to the Alamo. I don't think they

586
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 2: realized people were killed at the Alamo, all of them.

587
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 2: Maybe they didn't read their history books. Anyhow, what's the

588
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 2: next step here? What can be done? I believe, if

589
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 2: I understand this right, that they can be removed from

590
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 2: their seats for not being there. I think that the

591
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 2: governor can say they vacated their seats and therefore your

592
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 2: quorum numb would be lowered.

593
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: I think we talked about this before. You can't sit

594
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: here and wait forever, can you? Now?

595
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 3: We don't plan on sitting here waiting forever. Real rich

596
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 3: right to compare it to the Alamo, a famous place

597
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 3: where people stood their ground and didn't retreat and run off,

598
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 3: as if somehow what they were doing is standing for

599
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 3: and protecting democracy. Of course that's the opposite. They're subverting

600
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 3: democracy by trying to cling to something that they did

601
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 3: not win at the ballot box. It's pretty simple, and

602
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 3: so yes, one we need some grand juries to convene

603
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 3: to determine whether or not bribery as a curtain. As

604
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 3: you may have heard the news, Attorney General is looking

605
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 3: into betto Rourke's organization to see if he's organization has

606
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 3: engaged in bribery as well. But certainly they're also quit

607
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 3: is a no, not well, when when you read the statute,

608
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 3: it looks that's exactly what's probably happened. Now, whether a

609
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 3: judge or a grandeur would find that I can't speak to,

610
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 3: but it should certainly be looked into. In fact, it's

611
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 3: section thirty six point oh two of the Texas Penal

612
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 3: Code that makes it a felony to offer, accept or

613
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 3: solicit any benefit in consideration of a official as state

614
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 3: legislator's vote, decision, advice, or discretionary act, which would be

615
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 3: showing up to work or breaking quorum.

616
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: It sure does sound like that may have occurred.

617
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 3: But also, you know, breaking quorum, they say it's some

618
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 3: legitimate thing, but it's certainly not. It's pure obstruction. And

619
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 3: I would say at some point they've abandoned their seat,

620
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 3: just like if you know, call no show at work,

621
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 3: I think your boss can eventually assume that you've quit.

622
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 3: And that's the idea of the principle buying the suit

623
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 3: to see if their seats have been vacated.

624
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm just surprised to find out that Beto oh Rourke,

625
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 2: which really is even his name is Bill, you know,

626
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 2: of any interest to anybody in Texas.

627
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: I can't believe he's surfaced like that. You would think

628
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: that after as many failures as he's.

629
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 2: Had politically, he would just just kind of go away

630
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 2: and find something else to do, like work at seven eleven,

631
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 2: from like midnight to six.

632
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: I'm just throwing it out there.

633
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 3: Robert Francis can't help himself. He knows he's going to

634
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 3: continue to lose. And history shows that breaking quorum is

635
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 3: really just a futile action. All it really is is

636
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 3: a way for them to get sound bites and raise money.

637
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 3: But history shows again, and when they did it in

638
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 3: two thousand and four, they flew off to Oklahoma and

639
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 3: New Mexico, the Republicans still won, and in fact, that

640
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 3: next election added more Republican seats to the Texas House.

641
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 3: In twenty twenty one, when they broke korm, I was

642
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 3: actually standing there at.

643
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: The front microphone. That was my bill.

644
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 3: They broke korm over, they flew off to Washington, d C.

645
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: They came back. We still did it.

646
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 3: So that's exactly what's going to happen now, if not

647
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 3: even more. In fact, this time, they've united the Republican

648
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 3: Caucus in such a way that I think they realize

649
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 3: they're now in big trouble. And behind the scenes, I'll

650
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 3: tell you many of my Democrat colleagues don't want to

651
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 3: be there. They're actually just afraid to come back to

652
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,719
Speaker 3: work because the party will run some even more socialistic

653
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 3: person against them, because they know ultimately they're going to fail.

654
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,360
Speaker 1: They're going to lose. It's inevitable, it's going to happen.

655
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: The question is what the governor can do to expedite

656
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 1: the entire process.

657
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 2: Well, risk O, you keep coming back and keeping us

658
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 2: up to speed, because for all of us, it's fascinating

659
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 2: to watch this, and other states are threatening to do

660
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 2: something similar. I don't think any other state will do

661
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 2: anything of the sort. I think it's just empty threats

662
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:35,959
Speaker 2: that mean.

663
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: They're not going to the right to do it. You

664
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,800
Speaker 1: got it right. If they could, they would. It wouldn't

665
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:42,879
Speaker 1: be some tit for tak.

666
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 3: They're progressives.

667
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:45,479
Speaker 1: They would do it. They can't.

668
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,800
Speaker 3: They can't squeeze anymore than they've already squeezed. Our population

669
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,919
Speaker 3: has changed massively from people fleeing those liberal, woke states

670
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 3: to our state because of our economics. But also things

671
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 3: change due Biden's open border policies. We have a one more,

672
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 3: one man, one vote rule. He these districts must be

673
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 3: within one person by population, almost exactly perfect. Things have

674
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 3: changed in our demographics. Rather, our seats should reflect that

675
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 3: change so that people when they go to the ballot.

676
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: They can vote for the person to your choice. But

677
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 1: you're exactly right, Brisco. If Canada or you know the

678
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: governor of Massachusetts, well we'll do it. That's cute. Every

679
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: member of Congress from Massachusetts is already a Democrat.

680
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 2: Anyhow, Brisco, thank you for being here. We will talk

681
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 2: again soon, my friend. Thank you, all right, don't go anywhere.

682
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: America's Voice Live will continue after a quick commercial break.

683
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: I'll be right back.

684
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 2: President Trump doing a lot of good when it comes

685
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 2: to the economy, it seems, making some solid trade deals

686
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 2: and trying to solve the mess that Biden administration left

687
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 2: in its wake.

688
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: But change takes time.

689
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,399
Speaker 2: Sometimes massive changes like the ones President Trump is trying

690
00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: to pull off do bring manufacturing back to our content,

691
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 2: but it can cosme uncertainty in markets.

692
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,280
Speaker 1: Well, they all like uncertainty. The value of the dollar

693
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 1: doesn't either. He'll be now to talk about that and

694
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,240
Speaker 1: how you can protect yourself.

695
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 2: As precious metal specialist from birtch Gold, Philip Patrick, felt

696
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:20,919
Speaker 2: nice to see you today. We saw a real weak

697
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 2: jobs market, leaving unwelcome a surprise in those employment numbers.

698
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: Can you explain what happened?

699
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 11: Yeah?

700
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 12: Absolutely unwelcome. I think it's putting it mildly. We didn't

701
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 12: just get a soft jobs report for July, we got

702
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 12: a complete reversal. Seventy three thousand jobs were added, far

703
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 12: below the one hundred and fifteen thousand expected. But the

704
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,760
Speaker 12: big shot came from the revisions. May and June numbers

705
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 12: were rised down a little over a quarter of a

706
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 12: million jobs. Right, so it's problematic. We saw the unemployment

707
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 12: rate tick up to four point two percent. That's, you know,

708
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 12: a two year high now for unemployment. So we're not

709
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 12: looking at a healthy labor market, I think.

710
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 1: Is the summary. Yeah, so where is the Fed in

711
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: all of this?

712
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:12,719
Speaker 2: Look, if jobs are weak, we should lower the interest rate,

713
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 2: we should boost the accounty. And Donald Trump calls him

714
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 2: too late. He calls him too late there, and I

715
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 2: think he's right for the Fed share Jerome Paul.

716
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,399
Speaker 1: He is too late. He needs to help us out.

717
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: What's your take on it?

718
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 12: I mean, for months the Fed we're using strong jobs

719
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 12: is their excuse not to cut interest rates, and that

720
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:37,280
Speaker 12: excuse just collapse. Right, the labor market is far weaker

721
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 12: than they thought and inflation's cooling. This is exactly what

722
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,720
Speaker 12: President Trump has been saying. The Fed need to cut rates,

723
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 12: and they need to do it fast. That The deeper issue,

724
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 12: in my mind, is that the system that tracks those

725
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 12: numbers is clearly broken. The BLS missed by hundreds of

726
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 12: thousands of jobs, and by the time that they fixed it,

727
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 12: the market's already priced in the wrong story. The Fed

728
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 12: already kept interest rates too high. It was too late,

729
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,399
Speaker 12: and I think that's exactly why Trump fired the BLS chief.

730
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 12: You can argue the optics right. Risk becomes higher when

731
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 12: data agencies are politicized, but the substance is clear. We

732
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 12: need faster, more accurate data, not stale guesswork that gets

733
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 12: changed months later. It's a mess.

734
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not the first time we've seen it. We

735
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 2: saw them revise numbers down by a million jobs with

736
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 2: Joe Biden there. I mean, this is not it's just

737
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 2: unreliable numbers create unreliable outcomes. I agree with you that

738
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 2: what about the GDP because here's something else. Yes, we

739
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 2: just saw our three percent GDP number. Truth, there's nobody

740
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 2: really believes that. You'd thing it's more like one point

741
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 2: four one point five which is not recession, but it's

742
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 2: not it's not going great guns.

743
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: Is it.

744
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 12: Listen, we we remember what a disaster of an economy

745
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 12: President Trump said and inherited rather and it's what you

746
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 12: said earlier. Right, this is a tough thing to work

747
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 12: through GDP numbers. You're correct. We were negative in the

748
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 12: first quarter. We saw a bump three percent, which I

749
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 12: think was propped up third quarter GDP. Now they're predicting

750
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 12: zero point eight percent. So the economy slowing a little bit.

751
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 12: Good news is trade deals, tariff revenue, it's coming in.

752
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,399
Speaker 12: Not enough yet, right, It's nowhere near the deficit. We're

753
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,279
Speaker 12: taking steps in the right direction, but you know, the

754
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 12: fundamentals of the economy are still problematic. It's not just

755
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 12: GDP that's softening. It's consumer spending, it's manufacturing, it's housing,

756
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 12: it's a lot of stuff.

757
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 1: So we've got to work through.

758
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 2: In a moment like this, confidence is low. The data

759
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 2: is I don't even know if it can be trusted.

760
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 2: It confusing. I don't think begins to cover it. It's

761
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 2: like you wonder if it's even real.

762
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 1: So the question is why does gold make more sense

763
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: today than at other times?

764
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 12: It's because it's a contrarian asset and during times like this,

765
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 12: specifically when inflation, currency devaluation stunted economic growth. When these

766
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 12: are the issues, gold does very well, and you can

767
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,720
Speaker 12: see it in the numbers. As of August first comics

768
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 12: demand has already matched the total demand for July, so

769
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 12: we've had one month of demand in a single day,

770
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 12: and it's picking up across the board central banks as well.

771
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,720
Speaker 12: First six months of this year biggest six month demand

772
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 12: for gold in central bank history. So you know, this

773
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 12: is the climate that gold has always thrived in and

774
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,840
Speaker 12: it is doing so again and it is expected to

775
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 12: continue to do so. Goldman Sachs just raise their prediction

776
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 12: for the yellow metal to forty five hundred by this

777
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 12: time of next year. So we got a lot of

778
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 12: scope for movement.

779
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 2: All right, we want to leave you every day with

780
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 2: what makes America wonderful? To put a smile on your face.

781
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: Look, you've earned it.

782
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 2: He has sat here through some serious news conversations and

783
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 2: so forth, so let's try this. Today's story comes to

784
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 2: us from Hudson, Wisconsin, where a restaurant's staff handled extra

785
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 2: responsibilities to keep the business afloat Urban Olive and Vine

786
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,799
Speaker 2: is a unique diner since the work staff has made

787
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,320
Speaker 2: up of a younger employees ranging an age from fourteen eighteen.

788
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,399
Speaker 2: This is by design, by the way his owners, Chad

789
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 2: and Caroll Trainer, want the younger generation to learn and

790
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,760
Speaker 2: grow in a real world setting to develop their skill sets.

791
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 2: Unforcing tragedy hit the staff as they learned that Carol

792
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 2: had suffered from a grand mall seizure which left her

793
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 2: at a coma and forced her.

794
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,360
Speaker 1: To step down from her hands on position at the restaurant.

795
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 2: Chad, of course, had to between being there for his

796
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,320
Speaker 2: wife and running the restaurant, which put the fate of

797
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 2: the establishment up in the air. The staff, without any incentive,

798
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 2: decided to take charge and take over more responsibilities. You remember,

799
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 2: these have fourteen to eighteen year old kids. They left

800
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 2: Chad with more time to be with his wife. Ultimately,

801
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 2: this initiative worked so well the restaurant thrived thrived. Unfortunately,

802
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 2: Carol didn't make it through the complications, but Chad and

803
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 2: the team remained strong as Urban Olive and Vine remains

804
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 2: open to the happy to serve the community in memory

805
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:40,279
Speaker 2: of Carol all right. While most would shy away from

806
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 2: the extra work or look for an incentive. The team

807
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 2: in Urban Olive and the Vine took it upon themselves

808
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 2: keep the business afloat without question. And this initiative reminds

809
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 2: us of what makes America wonderful. Hard work, hard work,

810
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 2: My friends. These kids were fourteen to eighteen years old,

811
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,440
Speaker 2: and they overcame real adversity. God bless them for that.

812
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 2: All right, here's the question of the day. Will we

813
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 2: finally see some accountability for the alleged perpetrators of Russia Gate.

814
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 2: Margaret Underwood writes this, maybe the low profile ones, but

815
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 2: the really bad ones that deserve to be prosecuted, they'll

816
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 2: all take the fifth or can't remember. Nothing big will happen.

817
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 2: Karen James Snellbaker, Probably not from the main perpetrators. I

818
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 2: guess people think that the big fish are going to

819
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 2: get away, the little fish will pay the price.

820
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 1: That often happens. Gary Quinn Wright says, absolutely never guaranteed. Well, Gary,

821
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,319
Speaker 1: hope you're wrong. I hope you're guaranteed. As a word.

822
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: Dudley squad, That's that's what I'm hoping for.

823
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,800
Speaker 2: Jet Colbyan writes, I think there's enough evidence for convictions. However,

824
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 2: it will depend on where the trials are. I'm sure

825
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 2: if they're held in Florida there will be justice. We'll

826
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 2: see about that. Maureen Houston says this. My take is

827
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 2: all the releases of the classified docs is the early stage.

828
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,399
Speaker 2: More than one grand jury will be held, and bet

829
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,320
Speaker 2: more docs will be used that have not been made public.

830
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 1: Takes time, but I have patience to me to.

831
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,319
Speaker 2: Joe writes this, I don't know anymore, like everything else

832
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:17,320
Speaker 2: will have to see and Julie Guru probably not.

833
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 1: But if we do, it won't be enough punishment.

834
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 2: Anyway, I'm hoping and praying we're all wrong and they

835
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 2: all go to prison for many years.

836
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 1: All right, We'll leave it there. I'd love to hear

837
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:28,279
