1 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: Ahead an American Sunrise early edition. 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 2: The more we learn about the Minneapolis school shooter, the 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:12,479 Speaker 2: more infuriating the story becomes. The shooter was literally crying 4 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,320 Speaker 2: out for help for some time, in addition to writing 5 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 2: about violence for years, and now we learn his mother 6 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: is not cooperating with police in the investigation. 7 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:24,920 Speaker 1: Heck, no, she won't go. 8 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 2: Now it's the head of the CDC, Susan Monterez, who 9 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 2: is rejecting her firing from the White House. This is 10 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 2: all about her fight for vaccines and vaccine mandates. Meanwhile, 11 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 2: the other woman rejecting a firing, FED Governor Lisa Cook, 12 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 2: has indeed sued to keep her job and there will 13 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 2: be a federal court hearing on her case in DC today. 14 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 2: With the stakes rising for the twenty twenty six midterms, 15 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: President Trump reportedly wants to rally the troops for a 16 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 2: national convention in the summer of next year. Could this 17 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 2: be the beginning of a new American tradition and if 18 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 2: you redistrict, they will come. The newly redrawn districts in 19 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 2: Texas are attracting some new Republican oples. One of them 20 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 2: is former baseball star and current Trump supporter Mark Desera. 21 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 2: He's throwing his hat in the ring for the house. 22 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 2: The American Sunrise Early Edition begins. 23 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 3: Now, Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, 24 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 3: freedom and the values that built this nation takes center. 25 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: Stick your good, thieves and bad deaths. That's how we're 26 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: gonna judge you. 27 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 3: Join host Jake Novak because he breaks down the stories 28 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 3: that match. 29 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: He will be letting the public know regularly what we 30 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,119 Speaker 1: have found. 31 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 3: American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Novak starts now. 32 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 2: Good morning, Welcome to this not time Friday. Here an 33 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: American Sunrise Early Edition. 34 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: I'm Jake Novac. I hope you saw what I did there. 35 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: Instead of if you build that, they will come from 36 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: field of dream, as I said, if you redistrict, they 37 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 2: will run. All right, Well, anyway, we'll talk about that 38 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: in a second. Joining us now is retired Air Force 39 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 2: Lieutenant Colonel Larry Brocky is now speaking of candidates. He 40 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 2: is also now a candidate for the Texas State House 41 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 2: in that twenty twenty sixth election as well. Colonel, we're 42 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 2: learning that the shooter in the Minneapolis school massacre wrote 43 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 2: about committing violence for years. He was also very very 44 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 2: upset about having transitioned or trying to transition in some 45 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: sexual transition surgery whateveryon want to call it, or treatments. 46 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 2: And he was very open about his hatred for Christians, 47 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: his hatred for Jews, his hatred for President Trump and 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: his mother, in addition to apparently standing by and not 49 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 2: doing much about it, absolutely probably helped him. Not probably, 50 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: we know that she did sign off on his treatment, 51 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 2: and now we know she is not cooperating with the cops. 52 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: Colonel Brockett, you, like the rest of us. 53 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 2: Have already given the mandatory and required and I think 54 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 2: important condolences. So now, what do you think that political leaders, 55 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 2: leaders of the country can learn and say about this incident, 56 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: because it goes beyond just our condolence is of course. 57 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 4: Well, I think we need to take a good look 58 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 4: at the drugs that they're actually using to transition these people. 59 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 4: You know, I know the SSRIs you know, have an impact. 60 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 4: You know, there are a lot of people that believe 61 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 4: they lead to depression. And so I'm wondering, you know, 62 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 4: if that combination of drugs and various hormones, you know, 63 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 4: do something to this because we've had too many trands 64 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 4: shooters in a row. For this to be more than 65 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 4: just a coincidence. There's something going on, I believe, with 66 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: the drugs and with our culture. 67 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 5: Now, the other. 68 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 4: Question in Jake that you ask is why didn't somebody 69 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 4: say to the police, hey this guy is threatening violence, 70 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: or hey this guy needs help. 71 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 5: I don't understand it. You know. 72 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 4: I think in any peer group, you have a responsibility 73 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 4: to police each other and make sure that we are. 74 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 5: Functioning as a society. 75 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 4: So this is a breakdown by both law enforcement and 76 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 4: you know, the man's peer group are I don't mean 77 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 4: to miss gender, but you know that's that's what he 78 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 4: looks like to me. And so I think, you know, 79 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 4: we need to do something about this because we've had 80 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 4: too many trans shooters all in a row. And I 81 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 4: hope that law enforcement starts taking active measures to prevent 82 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 4: this because I think it's going to happen again if 83 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 4: we don't do something about it. 84 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: Now, this isn't a pie in the sky thing to say, 85 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: to say, do something about it. Europe, the EU, which is. 86 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: Incredibly leftist, has banned trans surgeries and trans drugs for 87 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 2: miners for years. And this is Euros so there's certainly 88 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: not some kind of right wing country trying to lock 89 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: up gays, lesbians, and trans people. And the reason why 90 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: they ban it is not only because miners can't really 91 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,799 Speaker 2: make this decision in an informed basis for themselves legally, 92 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: but also because of the they don't know what the 93 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: effects of this are are on children, and they aren't 94 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 2: going to play roll they roll the dice with it. 95 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: And also so because in Europe there's very little money 96 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: to be made from these kinds of surgeries, where here 97 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 2: in the United States, the trans surgery and trans treatment 98 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 2: industry is just that, it's an industry. You can go 99 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 2: to a hospital right here on Long Island where they 100 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: have a counseling service for children who have have gender issues, 101 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: and then they'll send you upstairs or across the street 102 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 2: to the other part of the hospital where you get 103 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: the surgery. It is completely completely unethical. All right, Colonel Brock, 104 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,559 Speaker 2: you're running for the Texas State House in the twenty 105 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 2: twenty sixth election, so i'd like you first to tell 106 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 2: us how that's going, but also i'd like to hear 107 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 2: your take on some of the big names jumping into 108 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: the newly redistricted state of Texas and the House seats 109 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 2: that are now up for grabs, and that includes strong 110 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 2: Trump supporter Mark deschera who's very beloved here among Yankee 111 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 2: fans here in New York. 112 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: He was also played in Texas as well. What's your 113 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: take on all of this. 114 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 2: It really feels like Texas is really the place to 115 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:54,799 Speaker 2: be politically right now. 116 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 4: Well, honestly, Jake, my campaign's going well. My opponent made 117 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 4: a strategic error when he threatened to sue his precinct 118 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 4: chairs who are looking to censure him for his unrepublican 119 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 4: behavior while he was in session. You know, Other than that, 120 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 4: securing financing is obviously a key thing, a key element, 121 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 4: and we're looking to do that as well. So that's 122 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 4: proceeding quite nicely, also better. 123 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 5: Than I expected at this point. 124 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 4: Now as far as Texas, You're absolutely right, Jake. You know, 125 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 4: the governor is driving the fight. We're seeing that the 126 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 4: redistricting occurred. We just got ivermectin across the border, and 127 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 4: so they are a whole host of conservative measures that 128 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 4: are being accomplished in the session. But getting back to 129 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 4: the big beautiful map, you know, we've got five new 130 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 4: seats and I'm glad to see to share a jump 131 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 4: in the race. You know, good magat Conservatives are always welcome, 132 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 4: and one of the things that you face as an 133 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 4: initial challenger is name recognition. 134 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 5: Well, that's not going to be an issue for him. 135 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 4: You know in other districts, you know, we've seen you know, 136 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 4: Texas basically took very left leaning districts. An example, the 137 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 4: ninth congressional district in Houston, which voted for Kamala Harris 138 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 4: at plus forty four. That was Al Green's district, remember 139 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,679 Speaker 4: him with the cane. Now you're looking at Texas State 140 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 4: House Republican Briscoe Caine has filed for that seat and 141 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 4: he probably will win it. There's another challenger that's a 142 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 4: Harris County judge. 143 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 5: You know. In the thirty second we're. 144 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 4: Looking at a Kamala Harris district being redrawn to Trump 145 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 4: plus eighteen or Republican plus eighteen. 146 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 5: Now there's no filing ship for there. 147 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 4: But there's Myra Flores and Tano Tahara also in the 148 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 4: twenty eighth. So you're seeing a lot of established you 149 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 4: know what I'm gonna call bench Republicans, you know, moving 150 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 4: up to step into these congressional seats. The Republican bench 151 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 4: is by and large a lot deeper than the Democratic bench, 152 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 4: and so we have the ability to pull up and 153 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 4: get up into the playing fields quicker. So I was 154 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 4: very glad to see Mark Tsera announce. 155 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 5: So this is great news for Texas. 156 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and here's the newsflash, this will be a lot 157 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: more for democracy when you jerrymander these districts so that 158 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 2: it's only a Democrat, usually a minority Democrat, who can win. 159 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 2: Those people lose any real representation person running their nose, 160 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 2: they won't ever have any challenge. 161 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: Even though some of these. 162 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: Districts are being redrawn to favor Republicans, there are going 163 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 2: to be multiple Republicans. Maybe not against Marc de Sheriff, 164 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 2: that's a different story, but there are going to be 165 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 2: multiple Republicans who are going to be vying for There 166 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: will be more more, not less more democracy. 167 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: Colonel. 168 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 2: I still think the biggest story in America over the 169 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks has been President Trump's crime crackdown and. 170 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: His efforts there in DC. 171 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: And speaking of that, and speaking of more democracy, what 172 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 2: a telling moment of cynical partisan politics we had just 173 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 2: the other day when DC Mayor Muriel Browser changed her 174 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 2: tune and gave some honest thanks to President Trump, specifically 175 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 2: for cutting down on the carjackings that are going on 176 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 2: in DC so often before this what a very ugly 177 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: message there though. That happened though not from what she said, 178 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 2: but other fellow Democrats had to say they bashed her 179 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 2: for just thanking someone for helping save lives. I mean, 180 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 2: here's where we are in America, isn't it. 181 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 5: It is amazing? 182 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 1: You know. 183 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 4: I often joke that one of President Trump's superpowers is 184 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 4: to get the Democrats to side with a position that 185 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 4: the American people completely do not support. So we're seeing 186 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 4: them actually in support of crime. 187 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 5: You know. 188 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 4: I think President Trump stepping in was desperately needed inside Washington, DC, 189 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 4: and honestly, the citizens are asking for it in other 190 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 4: cities as well. So I think you're going to see 191 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 4: President Trump respond. 192 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 5: You know. 193 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 4: I think it was what twelve days without a homicide 194 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 4: in Washington, d C. That's almost unheard of. So I 195 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 4: was glad to see the mayor step up and tell 196 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 4: the truth. And I hope that more Democrats come to 197 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 4: their senses. It's you know, we make a joke of 198 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 4: Trump derangement syndrome, but you have to ask yourself if 199 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 4: there's just not something wrong with them. Who would cheer 200 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 4: for criminals and want their people to be stuck in 201 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 4: crime when there is a solution, any solution to help people. 202 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 4: I just don't understand. And I think, Jake, you're gonna 203 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 4: see President Trump actually do something. I personally hope Chicago 204 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 4: is next. You know, he can do it. He has 205 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 4: the authority to do it, much like he did in 206 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 4: Los Angeles. You know, he will need to do it 207 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 4: under existing US code, but it would be a lot 208 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 4: better if Governor Pritzker and the mayor of Chicago would cooperate, 209 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 4: then we could do it easily, and we could work 210 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 4: with existing law enforcement inside the city to put people 211 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 4: where they're needed to make the citizens of Chicago safe. 212 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 213 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: Well, we can't believe some of these positions they're taking 214 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 2: and things like that. 215 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: But I can tell you something. 216 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 2: The political theorists of the eighteenth, nineteenth, and even earlier 217 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 2: the seventeenth century, they all saw it. 218 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: Ree Thomas Hobbs of the Island all talks about. 219 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,599 Speaker 2: Rogue leaders who who basically go after the safety of 220 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 2: their own people, and why even those are the only 221 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 2: people that Hobbs thought you didn't have to be. 222 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,079 Speaker 1: Loyal to Colonel. First it was the computer chip company Intel. 223 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: Now we're hearing from the. 224 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 2: Administration that there may be a push by the Trump 225 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 2: administration to take some ownership stakes in defense contractors like 226 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: Lockheed Martin, like RTX he used to be known as Raytheon, 227 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 2: and maybe even Boeing because you know, Boeing makes a 228 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: lot of missiles and of course they make fighter jets. 229 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 2: Where do you stand on this? I actually think it's 230 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: kind of like listen, the government has always controlled a 231 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: lot of what these defense contractors do anyway, But is 232 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 2: does the ownership steak make you a little bit nervous? 233 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 5: Yes, Jake, honestly it does. 234 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 4: And and my reason for that is, you know, I 235 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,559 Speaker 4: like to have the most advanced technological assets on the battlefield. 236 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 4: In any type of government equity stake would mean that 237 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:39,359 Speaker 4: we would favor these existing companies in terms of contracts. 238 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 4: And I can see that, you know where it would 239 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 4: help with supply chain bottlenecks and some other issues. I think, 240 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 4: you know, the ability to us for an innovative startup 241 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 4: company to get a contract would be severely impacted. Also, 242 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 4: you know, let's be honest with ourselves. You know, government 243 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 4: kind of has an inverse midas touch. You know, everything 244 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 4: that is making money making money when the government gets involved. 245 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 5: So I don't think it's a. 246 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 4: Good idea at all unless we have to do it 247 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 4: for strategic reasons. An example would be MP Materials. You know, 248 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 4: they took a stake in that because of the Chinese 249 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 4: dominance in both rare earth minerals and the mining and 250 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 4: refining of those minerals, and so MT is one of 251 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 4: the few companies in the United States that does it, 252 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 4: and so there was a good reason to do that 253 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 4: when you're competing against companies that are backed by a 254 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 4: nation state. 255 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 5: But other than that, I. 256 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 4: Don't think we should do this, especially with Lockheed Martin 257 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 4: and in terms of profit for the American people, defense 258 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 4: contractors and people don't really believe this, but they usually 259 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 4: net very low margins compared to other profitable businesses, usually 260 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 4: around five percent as opposed to fifteen to twenty. 261 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 5: So again I just don't think it's a good idea. 262 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 4: It's too socialistic for my liking, and I prefer to 263 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 4: let the free market, you know, address supply chain disruptions, 264 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 4: and I think it will succeed in doing that. 265 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: Very good assessment of all those pros and cons, and 266 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 2: I think I don't know this is going to move forward. 267 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,599 Speaker 1: But of course the federal government. 268 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 2: Has a lot of control over these companies as it is. 269 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 2: Maybe they don't need an ownership stake. Lieutenant Colonel A. Rock, 270 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 2: thank you so much for joining us. Have a great 271 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: Labor Day weekend.

Does anyone understand how working in 279 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 2: the executive branch works? 280 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: I don't think so anyway. 281 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 2: Also, the economic doomstayers, they just keep digging a deeper 282 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 2: hole for themselves. The newest data shows that the worst 283 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 2: of times are even further away than the mainstream media 284 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: would have you believe.

Let's bring in Emily Finn, Real America's speaking 302 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: of Real America's well, she's a Real America's Voice contributor, Emily. 303 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 2: Now we have two people who are refusing to accept 304 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 2: their firings from prison and Trump. First, of course, it 305 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 2: was FED Governor Lisa Cook, who's getting her hearing in 306 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 2: court today, by the way, and now it's CDC chief 307 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 2: Susan Monrez, but a lot of her staff did resign. 308 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: Now here's something I want to the part I want 309 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: to focus on. Right, there's a lot of midwits out 310 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 2: there who think that these firings are somehow proof that 311 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: President Trump either is or wants to be a dictator. Actually, 312 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 2: the opposite is true. This is the most accountable president ever. 313 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: Any other president firing his own executive branch employees would 314 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 2: just be all right. Everyone would just shrug their shoulders. 315 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 2: They like, well, that's that's his power to do. So 316 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 2: what's the big deal. I mean, maybe we don't like it, 317 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 2: but everything the president does, whether it's established legally or not, 318 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 2: gets scrutinized, get goes through the courts, becomes a major news. 319 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: Mainstream news media caused celeb This is the opposite of 320 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: a dictatorship. This guy is super accountable, isn't he super accountable? 321 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 6: And you know, I think everyone in the mainstream media 322 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 6: is forgetting the other side of this story, which is 323 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 6: what these women were doing to be able to get fired. 324 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 6: You know, the CDC director, she was sparring with people 325 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 6: behind the scenes about vaccine policies. I was reading today 326 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 6: here in the BBC someone that she had worked with 327 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 6: was quoted saying that she was fired because she wasn't 328 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 6: on board with the Trump administration's agenda, and it's like, okay, well, 329 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 6: why didn't you walk out of the door if you 330 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 6: didn't want, you know, to do these kinds of things. 331 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 6: So her firing is just really really interesting. She was 332 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 6: holding up things that the Trump administration was trying to 333 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 6: get accomplished. And then you know, Cook, on the other hand, 334 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 6: you know it had some interesting things with mortgage fraud 335 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 6: with her own personal accountability. So, yes, there are questions 336 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 6: to be raised, and you really can't push back when 337 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 6: you're fired. I mean, an investigation at the very least 338 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 6: is going to have to happen to see if they 339 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 6: are able to be in these roles and do the job. 340 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, well. 341 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 2: It's gonna get worse with this Lisa Good thing because 342 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: her hearing today is in front of a Biden appointee 343 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 2: who has already ruled against some of the deportation actions 344 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: of the I mean, it's not even a question that 345 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 2: this judge will allow that lawsuit to go forward, and 346 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 2: the whole thing's going to be dragged out. It's and 347 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 2: the clerk who assigned it was the sorority sister of 348 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: the judge who's going. 349 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: To hear this. I mean, it's just so ridiculous. 350 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, it'll probably go 351 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,719 Speaker 2: to the Supreme Court, which is a waste of our 352 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 2: time and money as taxpayers, by the way, and they'll 353 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 2: probably uphold the firing and we'll have wasted all this time. 354 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 2: But the idea that the President Trump is just trying 355 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 2: to do a bunch of stuff that no whether president 356 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 2: has done before not true. They've als if you use 357 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 2: the word unprecedented in the news media when you're talking 358 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 2: about politics, you're wrong about ninety nine percent of the time. 359 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 1: Don't use it. That's just my personal advice. 360 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 2: But Emily, the whole idea here that I think these 361 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 2: people think it's still twenty seventeen when saying you're against 362 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 2: Trump could get you out of a lot of trouble. Sadly, 363 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 2: I think these people have actually overextended themselves. They probably, 364 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 2: as you said, should have just gone quietly in At 365 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 2: the end of the day, I don't think they're going 366 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 2: to be as rewarded as they think. 367 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, if they feel the need to be 368 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 6: pushing back so much to the point where okay, yeah, 369 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 6: they're gonna get fired then why go through all of 370 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 6: this pain and suffering, and why try to go to 371 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 6: the media and try to spin this and say, you know, 372 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 6: Trump is being a dictator. No, you just weren't doing 373 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 6: your job, and we can find someone else that can 374 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 6: come in and do your job better. 375 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, they might have a lawyer telling them, Hey, look 376 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 2: at the Broward County sheriff all those years ago after 377 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 2: the Parkland shooting, and how his deputies didn't do anything, 378 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 2: and somehow that guy became a hero at half the 379 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 2: country when he tried to blame Trump for the shooting. 380 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 2: It was just incredible. But that was years ago. That 381 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 2: is not twenty twenty twenty five. And I think they're 382 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 2: going to learn that the hard way. Emily Finn, thank 383 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 2: you so much for joining us. Everyone stick around and 384 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 2: watch Emily and the rest of the crew in the 385 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 2: eight to ten am hour on American Sunrise, the Big 386 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 2: Show as I call it. 387 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: Emily, thank you for joining me. Have a great Labor Day. 388 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 6: Weekend, you too, Jake, thanks so much for having me. 389 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 2: Is the continued divide between President Trump and the Federal 390 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 2: Reserve putting us behind the curve again? Can the Fed 391 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 2: take the right action at the right time or are 392 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 2: we going to be looking at a potential economic slowdown? 393 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 2: And what does this mean for your savings? Consider diversifying 394 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 2: with gold through Birch Gold Group. For decades, gold has 395 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 2: been viewed as a safe haven in times of economic stagnation, 396 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 2: global uncertainty, and high inflation, and Birch Gold makes it 397 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 2: incredibly easy for you to diversify some of your savings 398 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 2: into gold.

Just text 403 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 2: America to the number ninety eight ninety eight ninety eight. 404 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 2: Again text America to ninety eight ninety eight ninety eight. 405 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 2: Consider diversifying a portion of your savings into gold. 406 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: That way, if the Fed can't stay ahead of the 407 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: curve for the country, at least you can stay ahead 408 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: for yourself. 409 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 2: Coming up, GM is finally facing reality when it comes 410 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 2: to evs, and so are GM workers. And don't think 411 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 2: I'm not angry worry about all of this. I'll explain 412 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 2: American Sunrise early edition and moving America will be right back. 413 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 2: Let your gavenue shake avenue, and. 414 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: Our best they. 415 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: Then that's a look at the Inner Harbor in Baltimore, Maryland, 416 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: one of my many homes in this country over the years. 417 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: I've lived in a lot of places here in this 418 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 1: beautiful land. 419 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 2: Every time I see the Dinner Harbor, though, and I 420 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 2: think of Camden Yard's great place to watch a baseball game, 421 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 2: But I missed the old thirty third Street Memorial Stadium 422 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: was a little bit of a fixer upper, but that 423 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 2: neighborhood was great. 424 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: Neighborhood ballparks are the best. 425 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: Let's take a look at where the malt the markets 426 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 2: are going to begin today, and we're looking at red 427 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 2: arrows here. Nothing serious, just about half a percent of 428 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 2: the Nasdaq. But we're pretty much flat positive for most 429 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 2: of this week anyway. And then we also see that 430 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: crude oil flattening out, but still it's a little bit higher, 431 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 2: sixty four dollars a barrel, still very low. Now let's 432 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 2: take a look at Bitcoin, which continues to exist in 433 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 2: its lower window right now. I'd say the window right 434 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 2: now is between one oh seven and one twelve, so 435 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 2: we're right in the middle of it at one hundred 436 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 2: and ten thousand when they measure the US economy. For 437 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 2: those of you who don't know how these little reports work, 438 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 2: and that's okay if you don't. 439 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: If you do, you're pretty you're probably pretty boring. 440 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 2: But anyway, when they measure the US economy the GDP report, 441 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 2: they actually measure it and remeasure it the first, second, 442 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 2: and third times. 443 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 1: They do it three times. 444 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 2: So the second revision, the second look at where the 445 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 2: US economy was this spring, just came out and it 446 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 2: showed that our economy grew even better than we thought. 447 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 2: The first report said three percent, which is very robust. 448 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 2: Anything more than two percent is good. Now it says 449 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 2: it grew at three point three percent, so it grew 450 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 2: even better than that. Again, as I say on this 451 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 2: program all the time, we may have an economic slowdown 452 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 2: any day. Anyone who says that that is ever going 453 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 2: to happen again is of course naive. And but you 454 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 2: have to be honest about where we are now. And 455 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 2: if you read the new mainstream media and a lot 456 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 2: of these other economists, they keep talking about how it's 457 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: almost already here, or we already are in some kind 458 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 2: of It's not true. The economy grew really, really strongly 459 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 2: in the spring. It is not showing signs of a 460 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 2: serious slowdown right now. 461 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: If you want to. 462 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 2: Predict it in the future, that's your right, but don't 463 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 2: lie about where we are in the economy right now, 464 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 2: which is in a strong place at least four now. 465 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 2: But as strong as the US economy is, American consumers 466 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 2: are definitely looking for bargains, and the proof came out 467 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 2: of that just in the last few hours. Dollar General 468 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: and five Below. Those of you who know those stores 469 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,479 Speaker 2: knows those are deep discounters. They have a lot of 470 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 2: let's just say, cheaper items. I wouldn't say cheap in 471 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 2: quality all the time, but you know what I'm talking about, 472 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 2: lower cost items. They both posted very strong numbers for 473 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 2: that same spring quarter, that April through June period, especially 474 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 2: five below Dollar General and five below doing very very well. 475 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 2: So look out here, Target is actually too high price 476 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 2: for a lot of Americans. It's Walmart and the discounters 477 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,239 Speaker 2: are even cheaper than Walmart, who are surviving right now 478 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 2: and doing very very well. So note that trend. Now 479 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 2: you've heard of go woke, go broke, right, well, it 480 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 2: also gets you fired. Microsoft has fired two software engineers 481 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 2: who are among seven people who've broke into Microsoft president 482 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 2: Brad Smith's office earlier this week as part of a 483 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 2: rabid anti Israel protest. Again, do I think these protesters 484 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 2: really care about Palestinians can even find. 485 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: It on a map? I have no idea. 486 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,400 Speaker 2: I do know that they're looking to start trouble. They're 487 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 2: looking to disrupt these offices. And I also know that 488 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 2: they don't know how to follow the real. 489 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: News because people at Google who did. 490 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 2: The same thing last year also got fired, although not 491 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 2: as quickly as these two knuckleheads. There are going to 492 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 2: be more firings, and there's a big story in the 493 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal this morning about how CEOs of big 494 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 2: tech companies and other companies have had it with this 495 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 2: on site work protest. Maybe they'll learn about this when 496 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 2: they start having things that was like Pride months and 497 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 2: other months. There's something along with doing that in your 498 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 2: private time. But once you tell people at work that 499 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 2: it's okay to have political statements and political activism, then 500 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 2: they're going to break into your office soon enough. 501 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: Keep your politics out of work. It's as simple as that. 502 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 2: All Right, ladies and gentlemen, start your engines. This is 503 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 2: moving America sponsored by artilleryte Coompany artillerytcode dot com use 504 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 2: promo code Liberty for twenty percent off of your order. 505 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 2: Artillery T is all natural, whole leaf, the tea bags 506 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 2: are chemical free and each tea bag can be used twice. 507 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: Artillery T Company is family and veteran owned and operated, 508 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 2: and a portion of your purchase goes to help the 509 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 2: veteran and first respond to charities.

Well, 511 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 2: the foolish move into too much ev production is now 512 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 2: beginning to not just burn the car companies, but also 513 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 2: of course they're employees. 514 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: GM is now. 515 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 2: Partially shutting down it's electric vehicle manufacturing plant Factory zero 516 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: in Detroit ham Tramic. Now that's an entire shift that 517 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 2: will now be idled at least until October sixth. This 518 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 2: impacts three hundred and sixty employees who will now get 519 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 2: that temporary layoff, who could be working full time right 520 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 2: now on gas power cars. Now, it's important to be 521 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 2: careful about any time you hear about any kind of 522 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 2: a partial shutdown out of one of the Detroit automakers. 523 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 2: They do every year, no matter what's going on economically, 524 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: partially shut down plants here and there, sometimes just to 525 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 2: rest the machinery and to do the maintenance on it, 526 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 2: stuff like that. But in this case, this is a 527 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 2: special news shutdown that was not otherwise scheduled. And again 528 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 2: I understand that the previous administration was pressuring Detroit into 529 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 2: making evs. Honestly, all you need to do when an 530 00:25:58,200 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 2: administration does that to say, yeah. 531 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: We're work working on it. We're working on it. 532 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 2: But they actually went a little too far at GM 533 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 2: and the other companies, and now they have to deal 534 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 2: with going back towards gas power production and they're going 535 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: to lose jobs for some of their people while they're 536 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 2: doing that. That doesn't make me happy. Okay, oh goodie. 537 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 2: Another contested election to tell you about, not just in politics, 538 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 2: also in the union world. This time it's a unionization 539 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,479 Speaker 2: vote going on at Yes, an electric battery plant of Fords. 540 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 2: It's their joint venture battery plant in Kentucky. The UAW 541 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 2: says it has won a majority of the votes in 542 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 2: a worker unionization election in Kentucky at that plant. The 543 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 2: Ford says, no, they think a lot of those ballots 544 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 2: will were falsified. It's going to take a long time 545 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 2: to sift through. All of this is going to go 546 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 2: to the courts. It is going to take a long time. 547 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 2: But if the UAW does hold on and win this thing, 548 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 2: it will be a rare victory for the union's south 549 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 2: of the Mason Dixon line. Even if they did really 550 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 2: win it, I don't think the UAW should get too 551 00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 2: confident here. I don't think that they're going to win 552 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: a lot of unionization votes in other parts of the south. 553 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 2: Kentucky's a little iffy these days, so maybe that's what 554 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 2: that was all about. 555 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: All right. Things just keep getting worse for Nissan. 556 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 2: The numbers just came out showing that Nissan is out 557 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 2: of the top ten of global sales for the first 558 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 2: time in sixteen years. For the record, it's eleventh, so 559 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 2: it's just barely out of the top ten, but it's. 560 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: Even behind Suzuki. 561 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 2: The company's sales drops six percent to one point six 562 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 2: million vehicles for the first six months of this year. 563 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 2: Not doing so well some of those Nissan cars though 564 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 2: in brands, I think our models are very, very good. 565 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 2: I'd hate to see them all go. This should not 566 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,360 Speaker 2: be a baby out with the bathwater situation. Let's see 567 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 2: what happens at Nissan, and one more time before Labor 568 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 2: Day weekend, please indulge me, everyone, Let's check in on 569 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 2: the average price of a new vehicle, car and truck 570 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 2: in the United States, and once again we see that 571 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 2: zero percent number. This is again from Auto News. It 572 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 2: has been the number one automotive day news site for 573 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 2: a long time. 574 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:02,880 Speaker 1: It's owned by Cranes. 575 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 2: They started making this graphic on April first, because that's 576 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 2: when we knew that the tariffs were coming, and they 577 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,679 Speaker 2: thought that every day we would see this huge jump 578 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 2: in the average price of a car and truck in 579 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 2: the United States. And now they have to stick They've 580 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 2: stuck themselves with this thing, and it says zero percent. 581 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 2: Will the prices go up someday? Sure they probably will, 582 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 2: and maybe it will be because of tarifs, but it 583 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 2: hasn't happened yet. And every day they're talking about doomsday 584 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 2: in the auto industry and everywhere else in the economy, 585 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 2: and it hasn't happened yet. And it's really really disingenuous. 586 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 2: When it happens, you report it. That's one of those 587 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 2: things about reporting. You have to actually happen. The thing 588 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: has to happen before you can even talk about it. 589 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 2: One of those easy rules. Okay, coming up. The last 590 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 2: thing Virginia Democrat nominee for governor, Abigail Spanberger needed was 591 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: a renewed focus on trans issues and school safety. That's 592 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: a big issue in Virginia. She doesn't want to talk about. 593 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 2: But the Minnesota school shooting has changed all that. Now 594 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 2: she has to asset will she Her campaign is suddenly flailing, 595 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 2: and now it could go down the drain and the 596 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 2: crucial twenty twenty six midterm elections are still more than 597 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 2: a year away, but President Trump has an idea about 598 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 2: how to rally the voters in a new way. 599 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: That story and more when American Sunrise Early Edition continues 600 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: to say where I'll rock. It's Friday, August twenty ninth. 601 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: Here this morning's top stories. 602 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 2: The more we learn about the Minneapolis school shooter, the 603 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 2: more infuriating the story becomes. The shooter was literally crying 604 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 2: out for help for some time, and now we learn 605 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 2: his mother is not cooperating with the police investigation. 606 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: Surprise, surprise, see you in court today. 607 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 2: Bed Governor Lisa Cook has indeed sued to keep her 608 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 2: job after getting fired by President Trump, and there will 609 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 2: be a court hearing on her case today in front 610 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: of a Biden. Important pointed federal judge. Democrat Abby Spanberger 611 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 2: isn't having a very good month and now it's become 612 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 2: a lot worse. Now the question is will President Trump 613 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 2: get more involved in the Virginia governor's race. And speaking 614 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 2: of President Trump, rallying Republican voters is something he does well. 615 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 2: But when he's not on the ballot, did they show up? 616 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 2: He's got a new idea for a special mid term 617 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 2: election national convention. Didn't say ever, didn't don't say you 618 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 2: didn't do anything for your Republicans.

Rob Louis. 631 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: He's the executive editor at The Daily Signal. Rob. 632 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 2: One part of the discussion many people are having in 633 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: the wake of the Minneapolis shooting is the debate about drugs. 634 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 2: Drugs that are being taken by our young people. In 635 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 2: this case, the shooters started taking them as a minor antidepressants, 636 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 2: some of the hormone blockers, you name it. 637 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: And we've heard now that Hell Secretary Robert F. 638 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior is going to be looking into this and 639 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 2: maybe we might see some kinds of new recommendations or 640 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 2: maybe even regulations about this. I don't know if that's 641 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,479 Speaker 2: the number one issue that you're focusing on on this, 642 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 2: but what are your thoughts about that? And then the 643 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 2: overall this overall incident and how it's being reported, how 644 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 2: it's shaking out. 645 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 7: Jake, it's good to be back with you this morning. 646 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 8: And I think this is a story that we have 647 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 8: covered at The Daily Signal for a number of years, 648 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 8: and you've heard a lot of concern among the sservatives 649 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 8: about the effect of these drugs, particularly on young people 650 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 8: whose minds are still developing, bodies are still developing, and 651 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 8: it's why there has been recommendations made by those who 652 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 8: have gone through the process of transitioning to pull back 653 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 8: and say, no, this is not good for young kids 654 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 8: to do. This is something that we should discourage doctors 655 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 8: from recommending. There are other sorts of treatments that you 656 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 8: might consider if somebody's having questions about this, but certainly 657 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 8: pumping them with hormones and even worse, doing gender transition 658 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 8: surgery is life could have life altering consequences. And so 659 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 8: I'm glad to see that Health and Human Services Secretary 660 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 8: Robert F. Kennedy Junior is focusing on this. It's important 661 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,479 Speaker 8: to get some answers where the medical community for too 662 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 8: long has not been transparent with the American people about 663 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 8: the long term consequences. 664 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 2: Well, you know, the American healthcare community is really where 665 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 2: we should underline that I talked about this in the 666 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 2: last hour and have talked about it for years. Even 667 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 2: in Europe, the uber liberal European Union, they are certainly 668 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 2: not religious reactionaries have banned trans surgeries and trans drug 669 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 2: treatments for minors for years. So you can't say there's 670 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 2: some kind of ideological reason for this, the reason why 671 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 2: we're doing it here in the United States, it's not 672 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 2: only about politics, it's also about money. There's money to 673 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 2: be made, not only from the surgeries and the initial treatments, 674 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 2: but just as anyone will tell you anyone who goes 675 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 2: through this kind of treatment or surgery, they are an 676 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 2: economic medical ATM for years. 677 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: For the community. 678 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 2: Because there's always complications, there's a lot more work that 679 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 2: needs to be done. This is a big money maker 680 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 2: for them, and that is something that I hope ur 681 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 2: RFK Junior also looks at or somebody in his position. 682 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 2: But let's keep the focus on RFK Junior just for 683 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 2: a second, because he's in the middle of this big 684 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 2: and broilo with the CDC right now. A number of 685 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 2: the CDC top officials resigning, but not the very top position. 686 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 2: Susan Monesesa is she's gonna stick around. Rob This seems 687 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 2: to be about vaccine, vaccine guidance. 688 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: We should be clear about this. Robert F. 689 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior is not saying we're going to stop vaccine 690 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 2: production in this country. 691 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: Et cetera, et cetera. 692 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 2: It's all about whether they will be recommendations for certain 693 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: people to continue getting certain vaccines. So this is really 694 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: front and center, isn't it. This was a lot of 695 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 2: people when they talk about RK. Junior, they talk about 696 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 2: his questioning a certain vaccines, but he may not have 697 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 2: had much of a ground to stand on before COVID. 698 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 2: COVID really resurrected this guy, didn't it, And now this 699 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 2: is the forefront of this dispute. 700 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 8: That's absolutely well said, Jake, And I want to underscore 701 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 8: one thing here. What you said just about COVID is 702 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 8: so truth, particularly about the CDC. The CDC should be 703 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 8: one of the most trusted institutions in America. And what 704 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 8: you saw as a result of COVID and the lack 705 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 8: of information that was coming out of the CDC and 706 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 8: some of the recommendations that everyday Americans were questioning, particularly 707 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 8: parents with young, healthy children, why are these vaccines being 708 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 8: man dated and forced upon my kids? They are not 709 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 8: among the vulnerable population that needs to have them. And 710 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 8: yet you saw these big shots at the CDC pushing 711 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 8: that agenda on the American people. And so, just as 712 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 8: you pointed out, in the last topic with the influence 713 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 8: of money. We do know that pharmaceutical companies have a 714 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 8: significant amount of influence in Washington, d C. 715 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 7: Not only with their. 716 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 8: Political giving, but also to make sure that they have 717 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 8: an opportunity to push these vaccines on Americans. And so 718 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 8: doctor Marty McCarey has made clear this week that if 719 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 8: you're an American who wants a vaccine, you will be 720 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 8: able to get that vaccine. But what is most important 721 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,919 Speaker 8: is to have a conversation with your doctor. And when 722 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 8: you have that conversation with your doctor, one on one 723 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 8: about whether it's for you or whether it's for your kids, 724 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 8: that's the appropriate place for that information to be exchanged, 725 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 8: not from some bureaucrats at the sea. And for far 726 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 8: too long we've let these individuals control so much of 727 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 8: the information that comes out about medicine. And I think 728 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 8: it's appropriate that Robert F. Kennedy Junior is shaking things 729 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,399 Speaker 8: up and saying this institution needs reform and I'm going 730 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:16,319 Speaker 8: to prioritize it. 731 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. 732 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,760 Speaker 2: Well, as someone who supports the established vaccines and consider 733 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 2: them to be either the number one or number two 734 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 2: greatest invention in human history, I was very, very upset 735 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 2: when all of that was put on the line. 736 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: For the COVID quote unquote vaccine. 737 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: I'm still not one hundred percent convinced you can really 738 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 2: call it a vaccine. It's really a treatment or maybe 739 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,720 Speaker 2: a profile actic, and it doesn't work that great anyway. 740 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 2: I was so concerned when they threw that on the 741 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 2: same roulette table as all the other established vaccines, because 742 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 2: I knew, I knew that people would stop taking the 743 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 2: shots that they really do need to take when that 744 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 2: thing failed, when the COVID shots didn't really do what 745 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 2: they were expected to do and even harm some people. 746 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 2: And sure enough, that's what's happened. It was a terrible, 747 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 2: terrible gamble, and now we're all paying for it. Rob 748 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 2: Maga World doesn't really have the best track record and 749 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,280 Speaker 2: showing up in good numbers for elections when Donald Trump's 750 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 2: name personally isn't on the ballot. So here's a new 751 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 2: idea he's reportedly thinking about to change all that for 752 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 2: these crucial twenty twenty six midterms coming up. He wants 753 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 2: to again reportedly have a real Republican national convention like 754 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 2: they have in presidential election years, but to do it 755 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 2: also in twenty twenty six to rally the troops for 756 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 2: the midterms elections. 757 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:28,879 Speaker 1: So listen, I don't know. 758 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 2: If you have a cheesy hat and banner company that 759 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 2: could make extra money out of this. 760 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: But other than that, what do you think of this idea? 761 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 2: Is you know, if some part of it sounds great 762 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 2: for getting politically people politically motivated, But on the other hand, 763 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 2: I don't know if Americans really want this kind of 764 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 2: thing every two years. 765 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 8: That's true, I think those of us who work in 766 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 8: the news media and tend to like these kind of 767 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 8: conventions and bringing people together. I mean, certainly we were 768 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 8: there at the Daily Signal in Milwaukee last year as 769 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,160 Speaker 8: well as Chicago, and it was a great experience to 770 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 8: to talk to a lot of people who are heavily 771 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 8: involved in American politics. But yes, your everyday American who 772 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 8: doesn't think about politics twenty four to seven. I'm not 773 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 8: sure how much this will have an impact. But even 774 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 8: before we think about twenty twenty six, we have to 775 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 8: get through twenty twenty five. And as you just pointed out, 776 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 8: there's an important governor's race in Virginia, there's a governor's 777 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 8: race in New Jersey, and yes, those will be barometers 778 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 8: to give President Trump some indication about where the enthusiasm 779 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 8: is among the American people. Are the Democrats really motive 780 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 8: to turn out their base and win those gumnatorial elections 781 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 8: in both of those states, or do Republicans latch on 782 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 8: to certain issues, whether it be crime or as you 783 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 8: point it out in Virginia, the transgender issue that maybe 784 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 8: propels them to victory. And when it comes to twenty 785 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 8: twenty six, I can't overstate the importance of the consequences 786 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 8: of that election because if Republicans lose control of the 787 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 8: House of Representatives, Donald Trump knows that that is basically 788 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 8: going to stymy his agenda. 789 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,080 Speaker 7: He will have to work with Democrats to get things done. 790 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 8: That's not going to be easy, given how much they 791 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 8: hate him and have they've resisted him in the past. 792 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's there is a lot of steak And you 793 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 2: know what, I think the good thing here, whether a 794 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 2: convention happens, and whether that is specifically a very good 795 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 2: idea or not. At least there is some thinking about 796 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 2: how important this is and clearly some more activism going 797 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 2: on compared to twenty eighteen, when I don't think that 798 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 2: the White House was as motivated it. It should have been 799 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 2: at that time. Of course, they had a lot of 800 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 2: other things going on, like the Russia collusion, hoapes and 801 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 2: things like that going against them, but still better that 802 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,360 Speaker 2: they're more proactive this time. So let's talk now about 803 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 2: that Virginia race, because I've been shining a line on 804 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 2: it for more than a month now, been a very 805 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 2: big important issue for me. 806 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: And sure enough, now this. 807 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 2: Isn't because of me, but ever since I did start 808 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 2: chatting a line on it, other people started doing it 809 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 2: as well, and the race is completely, really really tightened up. 810 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 2: I think Abigail Spamberg, or the Democrat nominee, had a 811 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 2: fifteen or twenty point lead in the polls. Then it 812 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 2: went down to twelve, then it went down to seven, 813 00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 2: and then I believe on Monday or Tuesday, the last 814 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,800 Speaker 2: as poll I know came out shows here only five 815 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 2: points ahead. And I think that a couple of issues 816 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 2: have suddenly become very very bad for her, not just 817 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 2: the trans issue and schools and bathrooms and all those 818 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 2: kinds of things that got exacerbated by the shooting the 819 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:19,439 Speaker 2: other day in Minneapolis, but also rob it's becoming kind 820 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,760 Speaker 2: of clear that if she wins, she's gonna make Virginia 821 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 2: into a sanctuary state, which right bordering DC is really 822 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 2: problematic for everyone. 823 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: Especially the Trump administration. 824 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 2: So this might get some more people motivated to at 825 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 2: least look at this race. 826 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 7: I absolutely think you're right, Jake. 827 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,479 Speaker 8: This is an issue that President Trump has seized upon 828 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 8: and has done great things accomplishing not only border security 829 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,839 Speaker 8: but following through on those campaign promises to make sure 830 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 8: that illegal aliens are not taking away jobs and opportunities 831 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 8: from the American people. If Abigail Spanberger wants to go 832 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 8: in the opposite direction, I think that it would be 833 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 8: a political mistake on her part. Now, one thing we 834 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 8: have to member about Abigail Spaanberger. She's done a masterful 835 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,319 Speaker 8: job in terms of presenting herself as a moderate, but 836 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 8: if you look at her voting record in Congress, it's 837 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 8: anything but she is among the most far left politicians 838 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 8: to serve from the Commonwealth of Virginia, and I think 839 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 8: the American people are starting to recognize as her record 840 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 8: is scrutinized, as she is making more statements in public 841 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 8: that she is not necessarily who she presents herself as, 842 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 8: and so win some seers. The Republican candidate for government 843 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,800 Speaker 8: governor has a great record to run on. Governor Younkin 844 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 8: has brought surpluses to that state. They've made great strides 845 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 8: when it comes to education in other areas, and so 846 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 8: I think that this is going to be a tight 847 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 8: race right until November. It's definitely one to keep an 848 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:43,879 Speaker 8: eye on as we approach election day. 849 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:46,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'd love to see the Democrats proved wrong. 850 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 1: You know what they're thinking. 851 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,319 Speaker 2: They're thinking Republicans and Trump supporters won't vote for a 852 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 2: black woman for governor, and boy, should they be proved wrong. 853 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 1: I can't wait till that happens. If that does. 854 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 2: Rob lewis executive editor of The Daily Signal, Thank you 855 00:41:58,560 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 2: so much for joining us. 856 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 1: Have a great Labor Day weekend. 857 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 7: Thanks Jack, you too. 858 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,359 Speaker 2: Coming up, David Brody and I will talk about the 859 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 2: war on prayer in America and why people who are 860 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 2: not religious shouldn't try to trash something they don't understand. 861 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: American Sunrise early edition. 862 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 4: Go tell that long, young liar, Go and tell that 863 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 4: miss l writer until the Rambler, the Gambler. 864 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 2: There you see the flags flying at half staff. 865 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: I think yesterday I said half mass, which of course, 866 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 1: is only for the ships at sea half staff. Yes, 867 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: I know the difference. I don't know why. 868 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 2: I said mass half staff at the White House in 869 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 2: honor of the victims of the shooting at the Minneapolis 870 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 2: Catholic Church school annunciations so sad, and of course the 871 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 2: White House is going to do that, I think for 872 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 2: the rest of the month, and maybe it is ordered 873 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,760 Speaker 2: at all federal buildings as well. Welcome back to American 874 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 2: Sunrise early edition. It's a no time Friday here, and 875 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 2: I want to continue on that topic of the Minneapolis 876 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 2: school shooting, because you heard from Minneapolis Mayor Jim Fry 877 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 2: and also from Jensaki and a few other people who 878 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 2: decided after the shooting to mock those of us who 879 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 2: respond at first to the shooting to talking about how 880 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 2: we're going to pray for the victims and pray for 881 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 2: their families, and on and on and on. The attack 882 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,399 Speaker 2: on us and people like us who do that, of course, 883 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 2: is just incredibly ignorant. What they don't understand when they 884 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,840 Speaker 2: say prayers aren't enough, is that if you are brought 885 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,720 Speaker 2: up in a religious tradition, especially the Jewish or Christian tradition, 886 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 2: you are taught from day one that not only do 887 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:37,760 Speaker 2: you need to have daily prayer, but your daily prayer 888 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 2: of course needs to have acts that back it up. 889 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 2: That your prayer will be empty unless you're doing things 890 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 2: to fulfill what you're praying for and to try to 891 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,439 Speaker 2: make that happen in a physical and a tangible way. 892 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: That's something we all learn now. 893 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,760 Speaker 2: If you only go to church or synagogue on Christmas, 894 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 2: Easter or Russiashana and Yom Kipoor, yeah you're not going 895 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 2: to hear the rabbi or the pastor talk about that 896 00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 2: all that much because they know you'll only shown up 897 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,399 Speaker 2: a couple of time times a year and they don't 898 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 2: want to maybe push that. So if that's your basis 899 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 2: of understanding what prayer is, please stay out of it. 900 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 2: And by the way, one more thing I'm going to 901 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 2: throw out before I bring in David Brody is one 902 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 2: other thing you know in the Jewish tradition, our rabbis 903 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,879 Speaker 2: teach us we cannot rely on miracles. We can pray 904 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 2: for miracles, we can absolutely thank God for miracles. In fact, 905 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 2: Jews every day, multiple times a day still thank God 906 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 2: for the splitting of the Red Sea and the end 907 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 2: of the slavery of Egypt, among other things. They thank 908 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 2: all the time, but we're supposed to do something about 909 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 2: it as well, not just to pray for it. And 910 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 2: I think that's where all people of faith, regular faith 911 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 2: are coming from. It's so annoying, David to have prayer 912 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 2: attack by people who I don't really think understand it. 913 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 2: But you know, I guess that's par for the course. 914 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 5: I guess it is. I mean, we have some theological 915 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 5: differences there. 916 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,800 Speaker 9: You know, when you talk about action, you know God, 917 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 9: the way Christians see it, they God gives you free will, 918 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 9: so that's the action part of this for sure. But look, 919 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 9: the the Bible is clear about this. We are commanded 920 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:08,240 Speaker 9: to pray. So sorry Jensaki and sorry the mayor of Minneapolis. 921 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 9: You know, when people are wanting to pray, that's a 922 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 9: good thing. And by the way, God wants us to 923 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,839 Speaker 9: do it, whether or not Jensaki wants us to do 924 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 9: it or not, that's what we should do. 925 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 7: Now. 926 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 9: Now let me just be clear. I think they have 927 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 9: somewhat of a point that there are people out there 928 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 9: that go, look, my thoughts and prayers are with you, 929 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 9: and then they move on to Denny's and they move 930 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,319 Speaker 9: on to Netflix and they're not doing a darn thing. 931 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 9: That's true. You know, there's a lot of people that say, 932 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 9: my thoughts and prayers are with you. Do they really 933 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 9: think about those folks? More importantly as to what we're 934 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:48,280 Speaker 9: talking about here today, do they really pray for those people? Look, 935 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,360 Speaker 9: I'm guilty of it, okay, And I don't mean now, 936 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 9: but I mean decades ago when I would say, listen, 937 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 9: I'm gonna pray for you, and I never did. I 938 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,399 Speaker 9: never did, and I realized that what. 939 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 7: Am I doing? 940 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,279 Speaker 9: You know, I'm telling someone I'm gonna pray for them, 941 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 9: and then I don't I do it now. It's been 942 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 9: decades since that that happened. But the point is is 943 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:11,800 Speaker 9: that they have. 944 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:12,759 Speaker 7: A point here. 945 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 9: There are people that just say that and don't don't 946 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 9: do diddley about it. I don't even mean action as 947 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 9: it relates to tangible action. I'm literally talking about praying. 948 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 9: When they say our thoughts and prayers are with you, 949 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 9: they don't do it. So I think, you know, I 950 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 9: don't think we should totally discount what they're saying, but 951 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,720 Speaker 9: they also need to understand more deeply about what prayer 952 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 9: is all about. 953 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be great if they could learn that, 954 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 2: but definitely hearing him on people who say even just. 955 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 1: The prayer and they do don't even do the praying, 956 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 1: let alone, don't. 957 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 5: Do a darning. 958 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 7: They don't do a darn da. 959 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 1: Ge're right about that. Well, here's something you can do. 960 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 2: You can watch American Sunrise from the eight to ten 961 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:52,480 Speaker 2: am hour here on Rail America's Voice and say with 962 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 2: us all day. 963 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 1: I'm Jake Novec.
