1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: You implying that the Fed and the Treasury are working 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: to basically put more confused, more liquidity into the system 3 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:09,560 Speaker 1: to help Biden in his reelection. 4 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:17,480 Speaker 2: I'm making two different I am seeing the shades of 5 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:23,159 Speaker 2: gray and with Yellen, she is a political appointee. In 6 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 2: an editorial or a piece I wrote two years ago, 7 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: I called her, three years ago, I called her one 8 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 2: of America's great public servants. In my letter yesterday, I 9 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 2: called her a political apparatcheck. And she has crossed the 10 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 2: rubicon and is clearly on a political mission. 11 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 3: Got bessence because all week long it's been Who's going 12 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 3: to be Donald Trump's Treasury Secretary? And even though there 13 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 3: are many many outlandish or unqualified picks, Scott Bessant is 14 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 3: a super qualified guy. 15 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 4: Now. 16 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 3: A week ago, when the battle was between Howard Lack 17 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 3: and Scott Bessant, LUTNX Camp was trying to crush Bessant 18 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,839 Speaker 3: because he once worked for George Soros. But the absurdity 19 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 3: of that is, if you actually want someone and I'm 20 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 3: not saying you should, but if you want someone from 21 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 3: the investment community, anybody who's a true baller has either 22 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 3: worked for Soros, Julian Robertson or Michael Milkin. 23 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 5: That's where we are. 24 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 3: So the argument that he was once. 25 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 5: With Soros is silly. 26 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 3: But I want to ask you, Scott Besson is unlikely 27 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 3: to buy in to the mega tariffs and the plans that. 28 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 5: Donald Trump wants. 29 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: And what we need is a Treasury secretary who's going 30 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 3: to create stability. So what's going to go down here? 31 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 6: Well, we don't really know yet because besson't like other 32 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 6: people in the Trump camp, has talked out of both 33 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 6: sides of their mouth on tariffs. 34 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 5: Okay. 35 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 6: On the one side, they say, look, America used to 36 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 6: be funded with tarriffs, so Alexander Hamilton was a tariff guy, 37 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 6: so we're gonna get funding from tariffs. On the other hand, 38 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 6: they talk about it as a negotiation tool. You can't 39 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 6: have tarriffs as a revenue. In other words, we're gonna 40 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 6: spend based upon this revenue. If it's a negotiation tool, 41 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 6: in other words, we can get. 42 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 5: Rid of it. 43 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 6: If somebody else is going to lower their tariffs're gon 44 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 6: create free trade. So we don't really know what they're after. 45 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 2: On the other side, I would point out that Steven Mnuchin, 46 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: they have President Trump's they have Treasury Secretary did what 47 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 2: was extremely prudent during COVID. You know, he left office 48 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 2: on January nineteenth. January twenty twenty twenty one, there was 49 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 2: one point six trillion in that account because of the 50 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 2: COVID crisis. You know, again, this is a buffer. The 51 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 2: Treasury Secretary and the Federal Reserve Chair are risk management positions. 52 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: Are you willing to risk? Are you willing to risk 53 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 2: the credibility the liquidity of the US government to get 54 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 2: your president reelected? 55 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 5: Wow? 56 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 6: There can be very, very different for Treasury secretaries. Some 57 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 6: end up being a pillar in the administration that end 58 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 6: up advising the president, having a center of power on 59 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 6: their own. Others end up just simply doing the bidding 60 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 6: of the president. This is a point so we don't 61 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 6: know yet. First of all, we don't know what the 62 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 6: policy is that could being asked to defend. When you 63 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 6: talk about telegenic or not telegenic, I wonder about whether 64 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 6: or not this person in that position is going to 65 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 6: be somebody who is going to stop or foster the 66 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 6: president from taking extra constitutional measures. Well, question, we had 67 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 6: certain people in his first administration who stopped that from happening. 68 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 6: And when you talk about normal. I think, Donnie, what 69 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 6: you may mean is that somebody who can stop the 70 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 6: president from deploying the military against Americans, we're going to. 71 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: Have omb People should understand it. Outside the Chief of Staff, 72 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: the second most important job in the American government is 73 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: the director of Office of Management Budget that coordinates all 74 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: of federal spending, every program. It's an immense and it's 75 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: a huge staff. It's a quite complicated, but very important job. 76 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: We've all been told right that Francis Collins and Tony 77 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: founci are. You can't get to them, that no control 78 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: over them, no management of them. 79 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 5: They had this massive budget. 80 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: They're like lords of the manor up there on Capitol Hill, 81 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: and nobody crosses them. Russ, what happened during your time 82 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: at OMB with this part of the medical administrative state 83 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: in our government? 84 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 7: Steve, thanks for having me. That's exactly what I saw 85 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 7: as I saw a National Institute for Health that you 86 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 7: could not get them to do reforms. You could not 87 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 7: get them to accept cuts. If you propose reforms to them, 88 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 7: they would go straight to the Hill and say this 89 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 7: is not something that we're willing to accept. They wouldn't 90 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 7: send things to the Office of Management and budget so 91 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 7: that we couldn't do the job that we're supposed to 92 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 7: do for a president, to make sure that anything that 93 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 7: they're going to do in an agency a lotigns with 94 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 7: what the president actually believes. This is what the administration 95 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 7: administrative state is is hang the imperil Congress does. 96 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 8: That's rush and he's going to be right there at 97 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 8: a wemb to execute that plan. 98 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 9: A bunch of some of these people work for him now. 99 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 9: Donald Trump tap former NFL player Scott Turner to lead 100 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 9: the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Rounded out the list, Trump 107 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 9: will nominate Scott Vessant, a billionaire hedge fund executive and 108 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 9: top campaign fundraiser, to be his Treasury secretary. 109 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 6: Did this back in the days when I don't know, 110 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 6: journalists sort of mattered, right, They still did more. 111 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 3: On a minute I'm sorry when you say that you 112 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 3: are that is the greatest gift to Steve Bannon, who 113 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 3: wants to destroy all journalists. 114 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 4: So I'm going to. 115 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 5: What are we thinking is accurate? 116 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 6: But not when we were to get a hint or 117 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 6: a whiff of a conflict, it would blow up into 118 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 6: a very big deal.

You have to have 190 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: in to take on the administrative state, in the deep 191 00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 1: state and to basically get the country back on a 192 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: correct footing. 193 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 5: You need. 194 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: Every administration is you've got to have fire breathers and 195 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: you have to have steady eddies. You've got to have 196 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:14,839 Speaker 1: some people that are just the stability organize going to 197 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: do it. But you also need those that bring the heat, 198 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: like a Peak Pete Hegxath, like a like a Matt Gates, 199 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: like a Christy Nome, like an RFK Junior, like a 200 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: Tulsa Gabbert. 201 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 5: Just to pick some random names. 202 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: Because the way the government works in the cabinet positions, 203 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: the cabinet positions, you're essentially helping craft the direction of 204 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: the government. In the direction of President Trump's second term 205 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: in trump Ism, in the age of Trump, because this 206 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: is where we are. But mainly those jobs are jobs 207 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,599 Speaker 1: you're trying to communicate. You're trying to communicate through the 208 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: American people, You're trying to communicate to our allies. 209 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 5: You're trying to connect with media in global media. 210 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: You're trying to connect with foreign leaders geostrategically so they 211 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: understand the direction we're going. And you have to make 212 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: it smart, you have to make it accessible. And that's 213 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: a very rare gift. And that's why he has something 214 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: in President Trump. 215 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 5: He's the best. That's why I call him a McCluin 216 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 5: esque figure. What do I mean by that. 217 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: It's off of Marshall McLuhan, a professor at Washington University 218 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: out in Saint Louis, who became the genius of kind 219 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: of modern communications theory back in the nineteen fifties with 220 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: the rise of television coming off of radio, the first 221 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: two real mass communication apparatus and we had to change 222 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: the direction of the world, right. So he's mclullin esque 223 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: in that he knows in modernity, in the modern world, 224 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: so much of this is mass communications and it is 225 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: connecting with in particularly in a democratic form of government 226 00:11:55,440 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: or in a constitutional republic that you know goes forward 227 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: with democracy, which is fifty percent plus one vote, right, 228 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: kind of winner. Take all that you have to communicate, 229 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: and you have to be able to communicate and drive 230 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: the narrative with your ideas, and then you follow him 231 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: up with the execution of those ideas. That's a president 232 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: Trump understands in this in the government. And I said 233 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: that back when Russ first came on here in February 234 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one, Russ votes first hit. 235 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 5: I'd known Russ for. 236 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: Years, had he was the deputy with He had been 237 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: around and been I think chiefest to have ever been 238 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,239 Speaker 1: on the hill. I met him when he was Mulvany's 239 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: deputy at Omb. The deputy kind of runs the shop. 240 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: And Omb was so important to me because as a 241 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 1: young naval officer came out of the fleet, out of 242 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 1: the Pacific Fleet, the seventh Fleet, off my ship. We 243 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: were in the I guess the North Arabian Sea and 244 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: Persian Gulf towards the end during the hostage crisis, and it. 245 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 5: Came back as a special assistant. 246 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: Let me just take that down just one tone, fine, good, right, 247 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: underneath the voice perfect. 248 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 5: We're going to go out with, We're going to go 249 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 5: out with. 250 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: Nicole McGrady, who graced us as a photographer.

I came back, and I came back as 254 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 1: a special assistant to the Chief Naval Operations over in 255 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: the Pentagon. I showed up, went to President Reagan's inauguration, 256 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: and then showed up for work the next day. It 257 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: became very evident to me as a young man because 258 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: the Reagan administration started and they had a young guy 259 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: named David Stockman in a job called omb that nobody 260 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: understood what it was. 261 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 5: I think it came up. I think it was a 262 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 5: job created I think in the sixties or seventies. 263 00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: David Stockman essentially ran the government, became the most important 264 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: guy initially in the Reagan administration Office of Management, budget 265 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: coordinates everything. And President Trump has announced a quite frankly, 266 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: a quite serious team of executives to basically get the 267 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: finances of this country set and unlock the economic powerhouse 268 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: that we are. The entrepreneurial economic powerhouse that we are 269 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: Officer Management budget. Russ Vote will return his President Trump's 270 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: omb director for I think the last two years of 271 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: the administration first term. Scott bessen Is now is going 272 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: to be I think the seventy ninth Secretary of Treasury. 273 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: Filing in a long line from Alexander Hamilton. Also Sebastian 274 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: doctor gorka frequent contributor on the show that we used 275 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: to carve out of time every week to have him on. 276 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: He is a Deputy National Security Director for counter terrorism, 277 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: where seb has worked for decades and decades and decades shortbreak. 278 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 3: Back in the month, All week long, it's been Who's 279 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 3: going to be Donald Trump's Treasury Secretary? And even though 280 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 3: there are many many outlandish or unqualified picks, Scott Bessant 281 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 3: is a super qualified guy. 282 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 4: Now. 283 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 3: A week ago, when the battle was between Howard Lutnek 284 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 3: and Scott Bessant, Lutnix Camp was trying to crush Bessant 285 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 3: because he once worked for George Soros. But the absurdity 286 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 3: of that is, if you actually want someone and I'm 287 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 3: not saying you should, but if you want someone from 288 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 3: the investment community, anybody who's a true baller has either 289 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 3: worked for Soros, Julian Robertson, or Michael Milkin. 290 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 5: That's where we are. 291 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 3: So the argument they do was once with Soros is silly. 292 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 3: But I want to ask you, Scott Besson is unlikely 293 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 3: to buy in to the mega tariffs and the plans that. 294 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 5: Donald Trump wants. 295 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 8: And what we need. 296 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 3: Is a Treasury secretary who's going to create stability. So 297 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 3: what's going to go down here? 298 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 6: Well, we don't really know yet because Bessn't, like other 299 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 6: people in the Trump camp, has talked out of both 300 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 6: sides of their mouth on tariffs. Okay, On the one side, 301 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 6: they say, look, America used to be funded with tariffs, 302 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 6: so Alexander Hamilton was a tariff guy, so we're gonna 303 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 6: get funding from tariffs. On the other hand, they talk 304 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 6: about it as a negotiation tool. You can't have tarriffs 305 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 6: as a revenue. In other words, we're gonna spend based 306 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 6: upon this revenue. 307 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 5: If it's a negotiation tool. 308 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 6: In other words, we can get rid of it if 309 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 6: somebody else is going to lower their tariffs, and we'll 310 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 6: create free trade. So we don't really know what they're after. 311 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 4: Well, it's the scene in What's this Day? 312 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 5: But build as day day off? 313 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 6: Like you know, anybody anybody did this tariff? 314 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 4: Help know? 315 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 8: It pushed us further into a recession or depression. 316 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 3: Yes, we learned he loves it on the campaign trail 317 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 3: because for people who don't know how it works, you know, 318 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 3: it goes back to the America first made in America. 319 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 3: And the question will be says he really do it? 320 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 8: But the move from young Frankenstein abbynormal? 321 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 4: Yes, okay, there's the abnormal ones. 322 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 5: We know this one. 323 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 4: This is a normal one. 324 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 5: This is a solid one. 325 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 8: And to your point earlier, the thing about him that 326 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 8: maybe separated him from Rowing and the other guy is 327 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 8: that he was the most loyal of. 328 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 5: The bunch that's coming from you. 329 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 8: So that seems to be the thread that's kind of 330 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 8: pulling everybody together. I don't know how he is telegenically, 331 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 8: because that's the other thread. If you look at just 332 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 8: about every one of his other picks. Now, Treasury is 333 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 8: not out in front as much as some of the 334 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 8: other types of picks. 335 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 5: But the interesting to see. 336 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 1: Okay, if you go to Ghetter, I think I put 337 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: up if you pull that that the critical path here 338 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: is that you have the cr So the government runs 339 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: out of money on the twentieth of December. 340 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 5: And there's two schools of thought up. 341 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: I think right now they're looking to kick it into 342 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: the first part of the Trump the first the kicking 343 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: in the first ninety days of the Trump second term. 344 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: That would be to kick it past January twentieth. The 345 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: President Trump omb treasury, all of it, all, his cabinet 346 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 1: has have it, working with Capitol. 347 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 5: Hill and the appropriations bills. 348 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: They're also talking about maybe slipping in an omnibus. Now 349 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: this city, everybody's gone. Everybody's left and kind of gone 350 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving. The House, in the Senate, there are some 351 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: people working in the transition. Folks are working, but unless 352 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 1: they're doing behind the scenes, and they could well be 353 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: doing it behind the scenes because there is a school 354 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 1: of thought that and when you hear people say, oh, 355 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: we want to clear the decks for President Trump, that's 356 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: that's Washington talk for we want to get a last 357 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: payday for our lobbyists, right, we want to make sure 358 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 1: the lobbyists get paid the last time before Trump comes 359 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: in with more serious people about this. So let's assume 360 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 1: for purposes of this discussion that it gets kicked into the. 361 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 5: First one hundred days of Trump. 362 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: So you got to do a budget, and you have 363 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: to worry about what that budget is going to be deficit, 364 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: because there's going to be a you know, a tax 365 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 1: number that's around I don't know, four and a half 366 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: or five tree and in the spending now looks like 367 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: and I think under Biden is six six and a 368 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: half training. So you have a gap of one to 369 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: one and a half trillion dollars. So that's January December 370 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: twentieth run out of money and something has to be done, 371 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: either omnibus bill. 372 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 5: Or another CR on to January. 373 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: Actually, technically the way the said it was in the 374 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: first ten days of Trump's administration. Technically, I believe and 375 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: I think this number is correct, that the McCarthy deal 376 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 1: runs out essentially on the day after the first day 377 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:24,199 Speaker 1: back from from the Christmas holidays. I think it's January 378 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: second or January third that we hit the dead ceiling. 379 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: Now the Secretary Treasury, which at the time will still 380 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 1: be Janet Yellen, can manage, as we said, receipts. In fact, 381 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: where I first met RUSS vote or really met RUSS vote, 382 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: but spent time with Russ. Vote was in May and 383 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,479 Speaker 1: June of twenty seventeen when we knew that we were 384 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: going to hit the dead ceiling and have to come 385 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: up with a new budget. On September thirtieth, we were 386 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,959 Speaker 1: thinking down range. Russ votes the first guy that kind 387 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: of broke down. 388 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 5: I talked to him and he came down and broke 389 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 5: down what we. 390 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: Call the waterfall because cash is coming in a extra 391 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: seats on tariffs, on fees, on revenues all the time 392 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: throughout the year. Obviously there's some big payment times I 393 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: guess around April fifteenth and other times where you get 394 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: a ton of cash. But cash comes in the entire time, 395 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 1: and to make sure you don't default on government securities, right, 396 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: you got to pay the interests and sometimes you have 397 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: to these things roll over. You have to pay the 398 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: short term notes or roll them over and refinance them. 399 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 5: You have to apply that cash. It's like you're doing any. 400 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: Bankruptcy, right, our company that's getting close and getting some 401 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: financial problems, you prioritize your payments. And Russ walked through 402 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: the mechanics of how, hey, this is the waterfall, this 403 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: is how cash comes in, and we kind of worked 404 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: out a plan that you can go a pretty long time. 405 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: My point on January second, we don't run out of 406 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: cash now the government's out of actual money to spend. 407 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: On the twentieth, I think that cr will get kicked 408 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: into the Trump administration. Then he hit the debt ceiling. 409 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: But you're gonna have cash coming in, and you can 410 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: manage that for a while. You know, back when President Trump, 411 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: I think hit the dead ceiling under minute. I think 412 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: they went three or four months at least for and 413 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:08,360 Speaker 1: you can stretch it out. 414 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 5: The cash comes in. You can do some very smart things. 415 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 1: And of course that's part of in this transition when 416 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: we say you have landing teams and then beachhead teams. 417 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: Remember a landing team and a beachhead team. This is 418 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: one of the things I think the landing team and 419 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: I assume once they get these technical details worked out 420 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: about transition, which I understand I don't think are totally 421 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: worked out yet, the meetings between this and between Treasury. 422 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: I think in that handoff, because remember you got to 423 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: relieve the watch. You got to relieve the watch in 424 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: on January twentieth. In the relieving the watch process, that'll 425 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 1: be a big one for treasury obviously, and then you've 426 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 1: got to deal with the dead ceiling. You're gonna have 427 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,199 Speaker 1: a because you've got a dead ceiling, and then all 428 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're going to pass a budget that 429 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: somehow is going to have at least a trade dollar deficit. 430 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 1: Kobayasi just pointed out that we've added over two trillion 431 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: dollars just in the last twelve months. His tweet the 432 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: other day laid out it was two trillion dollars and 433 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: we're on a path at one time of a trellion 434 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: dollars every hundred days. If you stretch it out, the 435 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: point is you're going to have at least another tree 436 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: in dollars added to the national debt. Now, there was 437 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: also a report, yes, oh, it was up on the 438 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: great Citizens Free Press, and of course. 439 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 5: It's one of the things we go to. I go 440 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 5: to obviously multiple times a day. 441 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: If you start with Morning Mika, you got to got 442 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: to keep your own Citizens Free Press and bright Bart 443 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: and Revolver and you know, the Gateway Pundit, all the 444 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: great sites that we have news sits. The projection is 445 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: you could hit fifty trillion dollars at the end of 446 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: these four years, that's another basically twelve or thirteen trillion dollars. 447 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: Now I have not done the back of the envelope 448 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 1: to verify that, but we're on an unsustainable path. And 449 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: this is what President Trump's walking into now. On top 450 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: of all that, and I think this is April fifteenth, 451 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: that the tax year, when tax after be paid. I 452 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: believe on April fifteenth or thereabouts, you basically have the 453 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: the the reversion of the of the tax cuts, the 454 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: Trump tax cuts that were the fundamental bedrock of the 455 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:32,400 Speaker 1: Trump the Trump economy. And when people vote and when 456 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,239 Speaker 1: people are in the battot bar and they did the 457 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: exit polls, so many working class and middle class people said, Hey, 458 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: I'd like to go back to the economy of eighteen 459 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: and nineteen, where we had low inflation, we had low 460 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: interest rates. 461 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 5: You had full. 462 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: Employment because I think employment unemployment was under three percent 463 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: around three percent. You had African American Hispanic employment were 464 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: all time highs. You had wages for unskilled workers rising 465 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: at record rates. I think you had definitely for the 466 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,360 Speaker 1: first time in history, blue collar worker rates of wages 467 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: rising faster than white collar non college graduates, higher than 468 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: college graduates, but college graduates and white collar rising also. 469 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: It's kind of in what people never given credit for. 470 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: Janet Yellen, who was Chairman of the Federal Reserve, was 471 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: actually taking liquidity out of the market. 472 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 5: Remember we talked about the balance sheet of the Federal Reserve. 473 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: After two thousand and eight, they put all this debt 474 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: on just to force liquidity cash into the system to 475 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,719 Speaker 1: save the system. It's up to I think eight trillion dollars, 476 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: and they they may have taken it down to six 477 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 1: and a half or seven trillion dollars now. But Janet 478 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: Yell at the time President Trump inherited three and a 479 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: half I think it was three and a half trillion 480 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: dollars on the Fed's balance sheet. The Obama had used 481 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 1: and Geidner had used, in Bernanky had used, his team 482 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: had used to infuse the system with cash to avoid 483 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: to avoid amount of financial collapse. Yelling in Trump's second 484 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: and third year, starting the first year, started doing what 485 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 1: you called quantitative titany. She was taking liquidity out of 486 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 1: the system. They took almost a trillion dollars of liquidity. 487 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: That's a headwind. That's a headwind, and you do that 488 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,159 Speaker 1: so you can start to deflate, so you don't have 489 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,360 Speaker 1: acid inflation, you don't have some sort of bubble. 490 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 5: You try to you try to take the take the 491 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 5: air out of the of the of the balloon slowly. 492 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: And this was President Trump's economic plan that was all 493 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: laid in in the first days of twenty seventeen, really 494 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, the same time we're talking about now for 495 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: the second term, was when the economic plan and the 496 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: tax cuts and the deregulation were all kind of laid in. 497 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: And that was the predicate that was laid in in 498 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,719 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen.

Number one, what they're trying 546 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: to do with the southern border to still get as 547 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: many people through here as possible and cause even more chaos, okay, 548 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: Number one. 549 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 5: Including even a nap. Number two is what they're doing. 550 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: Financially, they're playing all kinds of games right now with 551 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: America's debt and what's going on, and that's all going 552 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: to be sorted out. We'll be able to give you 553 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: more details about that, but stand by that what they're 554 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: doing and playing games right now to make sure the 555 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: President Trump hits the wall right of the box what 556 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: I call thunderdome right are the box in his second term. 557 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: And number three's this metastasizing and quite frankly, incredibly dangerous, 558 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: incredibly dangerous what they're doing in Ukraine. And of course 559 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: the International Criminal Court has indicted Bibi and I think 560 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: is war Minister, Minister of Defense. Also what's happening in 561 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: this Ukraine is as scary as it gets because now 562 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: you have a place where conflict has run rampant in 563 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: the twentieth century. They call that part of Ukraine and 564 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: Belarus in Russia. That kind of area down by Stalingrad 565 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: and Kirsk with Belarus right there in Ukraine, in that 566 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: part of eastern Europe all the way running up to Poland, 567 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: it's called the Bloodlands. There's an amazing book that kind 568 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: of goes through this. It's called The Bloodlands. And it's 569 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: just not World War two. It started well before that, 570 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: started really with the Bolsheviks in their revolution and then 571 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: the starvation of five million, the murder essentially by starvation 572 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: of five million Ukrainians by the Bolsheviks in the nineteen thirties. Okay, 573 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: by starvation and an act of conscious over there in 574 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: the Bloodlands in Hey, when that place spins out of control, 575 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: it can spin hard. It's spinning out of control, now 576 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: egged on by Biden. So those three lines of work. 577 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 1: The integrity of the southern border, which they've already obviously 578 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: initiated and exacerbated, and evasions one of the reasons they 579 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: got tossed by So one of the reasons the Rio 580 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: Grande Valley in South Texas is now Maga. From being 581 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: blue and then purple, it's now maga because those folks 582 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: are American citizens. They say, hey, we'd like to have 583 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: a little protection down here. You've got all this what's 584 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: happening on the balance sheet in this debt when you're 585 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: at thirty six tree and you like you're adding it 586 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: and interest is over a treeion dollars, and you got 587 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: over a treeon dollar defense budget to support the American Empire. 588 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: The scale of it's called the law of large numbers. Right, 589 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: you can get whip salt. You can get whip salt, 590 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: and just the ability to take corrective action doesn't happen overnight. 591 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: Just to work its way through the system takes a while, 592 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: not simply to make the decisions, to make sure the 593 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: decisions go through the system. 594 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 5: But it's like. 595 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: Turning an aircraft carrier around. I was under destroyer destroyers. 596 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: Like a sports car, you put the you put the 597 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: rudder over, boom, put an engine back. 598 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 5: You can pivot like. You can't do that an aircraft carrier. 599 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: The American economy, the American capital markets, and the whole 600 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: thing at the FED and the Treasury. That's an aircraft carrier. 601 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 1: You put the rudder over hard to like, we've got 602 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: to make a course change. It takes a while to 603 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: kick in. Just does. And then you have this geopolitical 604 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: system situation on the on the. 605 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 5: In the Aurasian land mass.

I haven't had time really 610 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: to drill down on a lot of it. We've been 611 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: accumulating talking to people behind the scenes. But down at 612 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: Apek in I think it was Peru. Right, Peru with 613 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: this regional meeting that Biden went to, was she she 614 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: lays out the four red lines that the Americans must 615 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: agree to if we're to have joint co prosperity. To 616 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: pull a term from World War two or the lead 617 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: up to World War two, the Japanese called Asia the 618 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: co prosperity sphere before they ran the tables in nineteen 619 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: forty one to try to control it all. 620 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 5: The Chinese are laying at the same thing. 621 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 1: For us to be kind of partners in developing the 622 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: world together, you have to agree to the four things. 623 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: One of them is Taiwan and that it's a it's 624 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: a province of China, which means they really have control 625 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: essentially of the advanced chip design and we're just gonna 626 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: have to live with it. They won't do a military invasion, 627 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: but we have to agree that it's just a province, 628 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: not an independent the country. Okay, Number one, Number two, 629 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: and this is the tell and the ticking time bombs. 630 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: The reason we had the new Federal state. Guys around 631 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: the reasons I was a co founder of the New 632 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: Federal State of China that Laobaijing. All this talk and 633 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: democracy and all this talk of freedom and all this 634 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: talk of self determination has to stop. Inside the Chinese 635 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: Coungress Party, the thing that they fear and they're spending 636 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: all their time on is a thing called legitimacy. They 637 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: understand that the United States essentially handed the country after 638 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: backing the Komang Tang right in Shanghai Shak after the war. 639 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: The war didn't end in China until the Civil War 640 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: played in nineteen forty nine, and whoop, right out of 641 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 1: the box, they set the Korean War, which is all 642 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: because of the Chinese, because we finally ended up finding 643 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: the Chinese military. So I would argue that, hey, the 644 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: Korean War is just the tail end of the fighting 645 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: in World War Two when you really look at it. 646 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: We handed it over to the Chinese, to the Chinese 647 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: communists in nineteen forty nine, Yes we did. And a 648 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: guy named Sanam McCarthy called him out and laid it 649 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: out on the center floor, and General Marshall quit ninety 650 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: days later. 651 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 5: That's called a scout. 652 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 1: And of course the Chinese people revolted in nineteen eighty nine. 653 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: At the same time the Russian people revolted and Tieneman 654 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: Square happened in June and nineteen eighty nine, and six 655 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 1: months later the Berlin Wall came down. Nobody ever makes 656 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: that connection. Ever, why do we make it here? Because 657 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: wait for it, that Russian people and the Chinese people. 658 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the everyday Russian peasant serf person there 659 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: that fought in the trenches of World War two, exactly 660 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 1: with Laobaijing.

They 783 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: have a different philosophy about the governance of the country.

And 804 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: they like the idea of sovereignty and territorial integrity and 805 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: self determination, the kinds of things you're shipping tens of 806 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: billions and hundreds of billions dollars over Ukraine as a 807 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: globalist to do, they'd like that here in the Rio 808 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: Grand Valley as long as we deliver, and I think 809 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 1: you see in President Trump put in together that will 810 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: deliver on both security and border security and making sure 811 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 1: that some American citizens are taking care of first, not 812 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 1: not foreigners. And there's certainly not people that have come 813 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: to the country illegally. And this is why it's not 814 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 1: the people's fault either.

That's a crime. That's a crime, and that 820 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: has to be investigated. And look, just because Pam Bondi 821 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 1: doesn't come at you and in your face like a 822 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: Matt Gates, don't think she's not tough enough in the 823 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: team around her, tough enough in the team coming out 824 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: of the White House Council's office, is tough enough to 825 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 1: pursue where it needs to be pursued. There's no retribution here, 826 00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: but there has to be accountability. There has to be accountability. 827 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 1: Big piece of the New York Times they say, hey, 828 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: the legal whole thing on Democrats, so all based on 829 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: legal story. Put Trump in prison, put the people around 830 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,720 Speaker 1: him in prison, put Bannon in prison. 831 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 5: How'd that work out for you? How senemy prison? That workout? Financy? 832 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 5: I had that work out? Good? 833 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,439 Speaker 1: How good that work out? Trying to put President Trump 834 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 1: in president? How that work out for you? Navara? That 835 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: work out? 836 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:23,919 Speaker 6: Well? 837 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 5: We won? 838 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 1: You lost, okay, and we lost. You lost and got 839 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 1: blamed for the losing, got blamed for it. And now 840 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 1: you're a pariah on your side of the football. And 841 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,840 Speaker 1: President Trump comes in here and is trying to with 842 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: all this resistance of all these NGOs and outside groups 843 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 1: and all this in the administrative state. And that's what 844 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,799 Speaker 1: the unifitary theory of the executive is. It's to say, 845 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 1: within the executive branch, we have to get something straight 846 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: and we got to get a straight up front. The 847 00:44:55,760 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 1: Constitution's got three jobs the guy called the president is 848 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: elected to do. He's the chief executive officer of the government. 849 00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 1: He's commander in chief of the Armed forces, the military 850 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 1: services report to civilian control who the people elect, and 851 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 1: he's the chief magistrate and the chief law enforcement officer 852 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 1: of the United States government. They have not wanted to 853 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,320 Speaker 1: admit to that since Nixon and Watergate, where they basically 854 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 1: hoved off the Justice Department to be their own deal 855 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: because they understood how powerful they had and when they 856 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: had Kennedy, they had Bobby and Jack and they couldn't 857 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: go back to that. But they're going to do it 858 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 1: their own way, take it away from the executive and 859 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,240 Speaker 1: make it a permanent part, a permanent center because everything 860 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 1: has to come through justice. Make it a permanent center 861 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 1: of power. We're breaking that. That is the purpose of 862 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 1: this exercise. And yes, Weisman and all you guys, you 863 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: can whine and you can cry and throw your toys 864 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 1: out of the pram. That is going to happen because 865 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: we have hammers, right, whether that hammer is tied Blanche 866 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: or Emo Bovy or the administrative guys, or pay a 867 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,319 Speaker 1: letter over at omb or Bill McGinley, the White House 868 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 1: Council Office, in hundreds and hundreds of more that are 869 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 1: coming in and understand what the administrative state is. How 870 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 1: you've had a fourth branch of government to essentially enslave, 871 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 1: destroy and enslave the American people. This is how you 872 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 1: did it, and it's being broken up. And President Trump 873 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 1: is that blunt force instrument that is leaving blunt force 874 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 1: trauma on you. And this word is just the top 875 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 1: of the first inning. Heck, I haven't even gotten to 876 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: the good stuff yet. But these people, they have a 877 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 1: different philosophy. They've built an empire and they control that empire. 878 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: What kind of the rebel forces are the outlaw forces 879 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 1: to do this against the dark Star? 880 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 5: Hey, and the odds are long still folks. 881 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 1: So whether it can actually be done or not, because 882 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:58,320 Speaker 1: they still have their grip on the levers of power 883 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: and the levers of money. 884 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 5: So don't think this thing's far from certain. 885 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,720 Speaker 1: That's to everybody if you want to help out, clearly 886 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: on the outside, the warm Posse and others. All these 887 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,399 Speaker 1: great groups have been outside. But if you got a 888 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 1: hankering to help out, there's plenty of jobs. And President 889 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 1: Trump needs support, gonna need support because remember there's two 890 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: and a half million employees, civilian employees, bureaucrats, a couple 891 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 1: of million in the military, four or five million contractors 892 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:30,839 Speaker 1: at levels of kind of mayor and zero expertise where 893 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 1: consultants do. I added up that there's tens of me. 894 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 1: There's ten million. Other people say there's tens of me. 895 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: I think it's about ten many. But that's a lot 896 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:44,760 Speaker 1: of folks controlled by four thousand political appointees, three thousand 897 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: President Trump, hopefully with Sergier Gore and the team down 898 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 1: there doing such a great job.
