1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: Ahead on an American Sunrise early edition by the slimmest of margins. 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: The Big Beautiful Bill passes the Senate thanks to Vice 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 1: President Vance's tie breaking vote. Now the tax cutting and 4 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: border in defense boosting measure is back in the House 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:20,079 Speaker 1: where it just cleared. Another key hurdle. President Trump widhes 6 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: deeper into the New York mayoral race, backing Eric Adams 7 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: over Democrat communists or on Mamdani? Which is easier? Is 8 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: it hurting the Republican cats voting on the budget bill 9 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: or getting it up New York voters to see the light? 10 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: We shall see. But wait, the President isn't done yet. 11 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: He announced last night that Israel has agreed to a 12 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: sixty day ceasefire in Gaza. Now he's waiting on Commas 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: to agree. Good luck with that. He's also warning the 14 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: terrorist group of dire consequences if it doesn't. In Idaho today, 15 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: a judge will decide whether to allow the guilty plea 16 00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: deal made by mass murderer Brian Koberger in return for 17 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: avoiding the death penalty. At least one of the victims' 18 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: families is furious over the deal. But will the judge 19 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: hear their call? For justice, and everyone noted just how 20 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: weird this Jaguar rebranding ad was a few months ago. 21 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 1: Oh it also didn't show any cars.

So 35 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 1: when you do that, you miss some of the latest developments. 36 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: But don't worry. A lot of us do get up 37 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 1: early and prepare a program for you so you know 38 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: what's going on. And joining me right now is the 39 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: Jewel of the Boston Harbor, the Countess of Cape Cod 40 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: And Okay, I've run out of Boston area titles. It's 41 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: Grace Curley from the Grace Curly Radio Show. And Grace, 42 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: you know, I know you wake up early. You got 43 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: a young you have a little one too, so you 44 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: probably don't even get to sleep late when you have 45 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 1: a day off. But Grace, they got this budget built 46 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: through the Senate. It did just clear the House Rules Committee, 47 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: so it's kind of before the whole house right now? 48 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: Do you think this thing will get signed, will get 49 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: passed and signed? And I got to ask you, do 50 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: you think it should get signed in passed, because everyone's 51 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: got a right to have a problem with a big 52 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: bill like this. I guess yes, I think it will. 53 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: I've been optimistic since the beginning, and there's definitely reason 54 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 3: to be optimistic now after JD. Vans broke that tie 55 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 3: in the Senate yesterday, and all signs point to the 56 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 3: idea that it's moving pretty quickly. And yes, I think 57 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: it should be passed. I've been on this program before, Jake, 58 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 3: and we've talked about the need to make something happen 59 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 3: if you have the power. People voted for this agenda 60 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 3: from President Trump and they're not going to be satisfied 61 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 3: with Well, we didn't really get anything done because we 62 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 3: didn't want to raise the deficit. That's just not going 63 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 3: to work in the mid terms. I think Trump's right. 64 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 3: The political liability here if we do not make sure 65 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 3: that these Trump tax cuts are made permanent is just 66 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 3: it's bigger than. 67 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: I can really explain. 68 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 3: For a lot of these Republicans, obviously they felt the 69 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 3: same way, and so it's looking good. I'm excited. 70 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, Look, politically, pulling the plug on spending 71 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: in an abrupt way doesn't work. And I learned that 72 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: the hard way. For many years I was mister fiscal conservative, 73 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: I mean more than I mean I still am, but 74 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: a real evangelist I guess about that, and then you 75 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: learn that really a better way is to grow the economy, 76 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: grow opportunities, and then slowly wean people off of these 77 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: kinds of gunment government benefits. If you pull the benefits, 78 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: you will never win another election, and all the other 79 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: good things that you want to do won't happen, and 80 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: a lot of bad things like open borders for four years, 81 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: will happen. And that's the way it works. So that's 82 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: my segue to open borders, Grace. I've talked a lot 83 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: about how big spectacles like a huge wall like an 84 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: alligator Alcatraz are actually needed to deter illegal aliens because 85 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: a lot of it has to do with the undeniable 86 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: welcome matt that was thrown out by Biden and Obama. 87 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: And you need to have something just as abrupt showing 88 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: people that the door has closed right now for illegal aliens. 89 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: But I want you to hear this comment from the 90 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: acting Director of ICE talking to President Trump, and I 91 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: want you to guess why I'm playing it for you here. 92 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: Listen to this. 93 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 4: Just first, on behalf of the men and women of ICE, 94 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 4: we just want to thank you for allowing us to 95 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 4: do our job again. 96 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 5: You know your vision.

I 117 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: heard a real Boston accent coming out there. Okay, I 118 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: also looked it up. Ice director todd lyons he's totally 119 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: from Boston. You know, you don't hear that kind of 120 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: an accent very But you know, I think there's a 121 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: good Boston mentality. You know, you were on top of this. 122 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: How Ice was so active a couple of months ago 123 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: in Austin especially. But you know, I think he made 124 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: the point there. He's speaking about the actual people in 125 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: the field in cities like Boston, finally getting that recognition 126 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: and the help from the President that you know, I 127 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: don't think they received for many years, even under other Republicans, 128 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: let alone by to no Obama. 129 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so funny. We're so proud of Todd Lions 130 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,119 Speaker 3: And it's funny you bring up his Boston accent, because 131 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 3: he sounds like all of my family. So I wouldn't 132 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 3: even it, wouldn't even have registered with me. I don't 133 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 3: even hear it. But as far as the job he's doing, 134 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: he's an incredible man. He comes from a great family. 135 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 3: He actually his dad has a really incredible history as well, 136 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 3: in the Vietnam War and creating a monument here in well, 137 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: at least in South Boston. And so we're so proud 138 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 3: of him. We're like his cheerleaders. And to see a 139 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 3: politician or I'm sorry, not a politician, but a leader. 140 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 3: To see someone who's in the political world at least 141 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 3: because of his leadership skills, who's not a rabid liberal 142 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 3: nut is so refreshing. And he's been doing a just 143 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 3: a really great job at getting the word out and 144 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 3: explaining to people here in Boston how critical it is 145 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 3: that we get these illegal aliens off the streets. A 146 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 3: lot of the people here in Boston, a lot of 147 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 3: these illegal aliens have very dangerous rap sheets, and there 148 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 3: are so few people, the mayor, the governor, no one 149 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 3: seems to want to address that fact. They keep telling 150 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 3: us how they're making us safer by keeping these criminals here. 151 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: And so we have at least one fighter in todd 152 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 3: Lyons and we really appreciate it. 153 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: I think if we let the country be run by 154 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: gen exters from Brooklyn and South Boston, it'd be a 155 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: better place. But that would make for a good new 156 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: political party. Maybe Elon Musk can create that party, Grace. 157 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: I know you've been following the New York speaking of Brooklyn, 158 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: the New York mayoral race, and this out and out 159 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: communists are on mom, Donnie. As it turns out, he's 160 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: also a sloppy communist. You were among the people who 161 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: pointed out that he had been claiming that there's one 162 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: hundred and forty million dollars that the city is spending 163 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: on private grocery companies. No, actually that was a misreading. 164 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: That was actually a consortium of people who were donating 165 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: money to help fight hunger. This guy is sloppy, But 166 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: will it be enough, you think, to defeat him in 167 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: a general election? I got to say, it looks tough 168 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: to me. This whole chess board looks rough to me. 169 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so, how do I put this well, first 170 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 3: of all, if you were if you were running, if 171 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 3: you were offering to run a private company, and you 172 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 3: made this kind of fuzzy math error where you said, hey, 173 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 3: we're going to have this big plan, and then you 174 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 3: get in there and you say, Okay, let's implement my 175 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 3: plan city run grocery stores, and it turns out the 176 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: one hundred and forty million dollars that you were going 177 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 3: to use for that doesn't exist. That's a big problem, 178 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 3: and there's been a lot of great reporting on it, 179 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 3: and it wouldn't fly in the private sector. But hey, 180 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 3: this is politics. You can get away with a lot more. 181 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 3: But something Jake, that I know you've been speaking about 182 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 3: and that I find very disturbing, is there's more focus 183 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 3: on trying to decide or classify mom Donnie as like 184 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 3: a socialist or a communist, or would this work, or 185 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 3: the problem with city run grocery stores. And that's all valid, 186 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 3: but really, what I would think would be enough in 187 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 3: New York City with such a high Jewish population is 188 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 3: some of the radical stances that this man has taken 189 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 3: against Israel, refusing to condemn the slogan globalize the into Fada, 190 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 3: the fact that that isn't just immediately a non starter 191 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 3: for voters in New York is frightening to me. 192 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I'm hoping for some of these placidic rabbis 193 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: and Paradi rabbis in Brooklyn and in Queens just to 194 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: tell their followers to vote on Moss against him. And 195 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: I don't think they voted in the primary, so let's 196 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: see if that makes a difference. Grace, you're so good 197 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: on trials. You often cover trials not just locally but nationally, 198 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: and I'd love to get your take on this situation 199 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: in Idaho where a judge today is going to be 200 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: reviewing the plea in the Brian Coburger case. As you know, 201 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: he has accepted a guilty plea in return for not 202 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: getting the death penalty, and the prosecutor did not consult 203 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: with all the families before making this deal, and at 204 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: least one of the victims family members is outraged by this. 205 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 1: You know. I got to tell you, though, that one 206 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: good thing about this that I do like is now 207 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: there won't be a trial. As much as I'd love 208 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: to hear a commentary about a running trial again, because 209 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 1: that's just a little bit less publicity for this guy, 210 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: because I think that's why he committed the murders in 211 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: the first place. 212 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is so awful to hear about and to 213 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 3: read the statements from these family members who are just 214 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 3: I think the word that one of the families used, 215 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 3: which really describes this as re traumatized. This is an abomination. 216 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 3: I feel horrible for them that they've gone through this 217 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 3: for so many years and now when they finally think 218 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 3: that they're going to, you know, at least have a 219 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 3: little bit of justice and be able to find out 220 00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 3: what really happened, that this kind of bombshell is just 221 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 3: dropped on them out of nowhere. The question of how 222 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 3: much they knew about it, or whether or not they 223 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 3: were consulted about this or asked about this is still 224 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 3: kind of up in the air, but I have read 225 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 3: that there was a real lack of transparency here, and 226 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 3: I just can't imagine. You go through the initial pain, 227 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 3: which is unimaginable to most of us when you lose 228 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 3: a family member in such a horrific way, and then 229 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 3: this ego maniac spends two and a half years like 230 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 3: toying with these people like their mice, and he's this 231 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 3: cat and then for the prosecution to kind of give 232 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 3: him exactly what he wants at the last minute. It 233 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 3: makes your stomach turn, and I really hope that this 234 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 3: is rejected. I don't think it will be at this point, 235 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 3: but I'm always an optimist and I'm holding out hope 236 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 3: that the outrage that we're hearing from these families is 237 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 3: enough to change this before it's made official, because it 238 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 3: is just it's unacceptable and that's not how the justice 239 00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 3: system is supposed to work. 240 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, you know what, folks, everyone watching, there is 241 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: something you can do about this when he inevitably comes out, 242 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: when they inevitably come out with the book about this, 243 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 1: with the True Crime podcast, don't download it, don't buy it. 244 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: That's why the Skuy committed the murder. And if you 245 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: boycott this, then maybe the next guy who does something 246 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: like this or wants to do something like this won't 247 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: because he won't see as much of a ego boost 248 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 1: from it. That's really all I can say. Grace Curley 249 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: want to end on a happier note. It's Wednesday, but 250 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: it's really like Thursday because we've got July fourth coming up, 251 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: So have a great weekend July fourth in Boston. It's 252 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: pretty awesome, so I can't wait to see you again. 253 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: But have a good long weekend. 254 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 3: Yes, the Countess of Cape Cod is heading to Cape 255 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 3: Cod on Thursday, so I'm very excited to it to 256 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 3: see the fireworks from the Cape. Thank you, Jake. Have 257 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 3: a great weekend as well. I'm happy fourth of July. 258 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: Thank you so much. All right, coming up now that 259 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: Senator Tom Tillis is bowing out, get ready for a 260 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: big fight to save his Senate seat for the GOP 261 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: and really get ready for the big, big money to 262 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: pour into the tar Hill State. You won't believe how much. 263 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: And it's an end of an era, the era of 264 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: hidden payoffs, an unaccountable nonsense. That is, the US Department 265 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: AID is officially closed down, but the building may live on. 266 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: I'll explain when American Sunrise Early edition comes right back. 267 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: That's a live shot of the Capitol where they've been 268 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: working around the clock for once. The latest on the 269 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: big beautiful budget bill. You know that it passed the 270 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 1: Senate late yesterday and now overnight it got through the 271 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: Rules committee in the House, so now it is before 272 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: the whole House. The issue, though, is I don't think 273 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: there are enough votes yet to pass it. They're gonna 274 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: have to work on this for some hours today. We'll 275 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: see how this goes. But it did clear another key 276 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: hurdle while you were sleeping. I hope if you keep 277 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 1: decent sleeping hours. Welcome back to Americans un Rise early edition. 278 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: A special welcome to you on Getter and Rumble, who 279 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: are already you guys are already watching, you're commenting, and 280 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: you're up in Adam. Today, Secretary of State Marco Rubio 281 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: made it official the US Aid Office. USAID Office has 282 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: officially been closed and now foreign aid decisions will be 283 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: made entirely by the State Department, with the Secretary of 284 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: State and the President ultimately responsible for every pennanty. They 285 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: say sunlight is the best disinfectant, and this is like 286 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: a solar farm. We're going to find out a little 287 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: bit more about where the money is going now, and 288 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: there will be people who are accountable. Of course, the 289 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: Secretary of State is not elected, but the president is, 290 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: and the President can easily take care of problems with 291 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: the Secretary of State. This I think is a positive development. 292 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: Now the building that once housed the US Aid Office 293 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: USAID Office may get a new tenant really quickly. It 294 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: could be the FBI. That's because the President is ditching 295 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: plans for a costly move for the FBI to another 296 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: headquarters in Maryland. Now he wants to keep it in 297 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: DC and put the FBI in the old US Now. 298 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: I call it the old US aaid building. FBI director 299 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: Cash Pttel said yesterday he backs the plan. Annie believes 300 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: it's the best cost saving option. Why not. President knows 301 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 1: real estate, so you might as well let him do 302 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: some of the office rearranging in the nation's capital. Right Now, 303 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: that North Carolina Senator Tom Tillis has decided not to 304 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: run again in twenty twenty six, the sweepstakes are on 305 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: to find a strong Republican candidate to replace him. Now, 306 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: a lot of President Trump supporters favor his daughter in law, 307 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: Lara Trump for the job. She's actually from North Carolina. 308 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: I think she's living in Florida now, but she's got 309 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: a long history in North Carolina. Other Republicans like Michael Wattley, 310 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: who's the current chairman of the RNC and the former 311 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: chief of the North Carolina GOP, he's also expected to 312 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: run for this. Not a lot of people love him 313 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: because He's so connected to Tillis, so this is going 314 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: to be interesting. I think most of the Trump Trump 315 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: supporters really really like Lara Trump. But you know, no 316 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: matter who run, this is shaping up to become one 317 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: of the costliest elections ever. How do I know that 318 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: because I know from the state's history. When Tom Tillis 319 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: first ran and won this seat in twenty fourteen, that 320 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: election broke the record. It became the first US Senate 321 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: race to top over one hundred million dollars in campaign spending. 322 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: People were shocked. It was a big deal. I wrote 323 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: about it twenty fourteen in a column and talked about 324 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: how one hundred million dollars, as shocking as that sounds 325 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: even eleven years ago, was worth every penny to the 326 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: people make donating that money. And I'm sorry to say 327 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: I was very right about that. Tom Tillis was absolutely 328 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: at the behest of his donors, no matter whether they 329 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: were right wing, left wing, or whatever in the middle, 330 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: proving that this week by going on his own and 331 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: I guess sort of making his donors happy, maybe one 332 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: of them will hire them hire him after he leaves 333 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: the Senate at the end of next year. But folks, 334 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: This is going to be a big one. If it 335 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: was one hundred million in twenty fourteen, expect a two 336 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: hundred million dollar price tag in twenty twenty six. That's 337 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: my prediction. Okay, we are days away from what has 338 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: been dubbed the Rio reset, that is the greatest threat 339 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: to the US dollars global dominance in over eighty years. 340 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: On July six, Bricks nations that's Russia, China, India, Iran 341 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: and many more are expected to unveil their plans to 342 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: circumvent the US dollar, thus cratering its value. They've already 343 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: been laying out the groundwork as their central banks have 344 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 1: been methodically divesting from the US dollar and US bonds 345 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: in favor of gold. How can you protect your Ira 346 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 1: or four oh one k from the fallout from this 347 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: landmark shift?

Okay, coming up, the Trump war on 357 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 1: FED Chair J. Powell just keeps getting hotter, and now 358 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 1: the president has a pretty decent wingman on his side. 359 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition will have that story for you 360 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: in two minutes. Okay, we're still looking at live shots 361 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: at Washington, DC this morning on American Sunrise Early Edition. 362 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: But we moved from the Capitol to the Jefferson Memorial. 363 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: And now I don't know if this is still true, 364 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: but in the nineteen eighties Jefferson Memorial was kind of 365 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: like a lover's lane. It was a good makeout spot. 366 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: And I'm just telling you this right now. I don't 367 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: know if it still is. Maybe someone in DC can 368 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: tell me this. But these are the things that we 369 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: should all be thinking about, other than just annoying bills 370 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: on Capitol loll all the time, coming got live a little. 371 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: We cannot live on budget bills alone, my friends. Let's 372 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: also take a look where the markets will begin today 373 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 1: pretty good numbers. The Dow is up more than four 374 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: hundred points yesterday, the NASSAK down a little bit. Looks 375 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: like we're going to keep that trend going with the 376 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: Dow going to open up higher, the NASSAC just a 377 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 1: little bit down, really flat. Gold is up, and I 378 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: can tell you right now, if this budget bill passes, 379 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 1: gold will continue to go up for a while because 380 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: more spending means that gold becomes more valuable against the dollar. 381 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: Crude oil is up. We're up at the sixty six 382 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 1: dollars of barrel mark. That's a little higher than we've been. 383 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: We've been at sixty four sixty five for a while, 384 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,919 Speaker 1: still very low number for crude oil. Now let's take 385 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: a look at bitcoin again, still in that one oh 386 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: four to one ten window, but at the higher end 387 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: of it now almost at one hundred and eight thousand, 388 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: up two percent and change two and a third basically 389 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: so far today. So Bitcoin edging up higher as well. Hey, 390 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 1: the mainstream media gleefully reported all day yesterday that FED 391 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: Chairman J. Powell was saying something about how well well 392 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 1: he would have cut rates by now if it weren't 393 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: for the Trump tariffs. So every headline in every mainstream media, 394 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: including some financial media websites and newspapers and TV shows, 395 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: we're all jumping up and down about how look J. 396 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 1: Powell saying telling you it's Trump's fault that you don't 397 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: have lower interest rates. Well, that's even though the tariffs 398 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 1: actually haven't even done anywhere near the damage to the 399 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: economy that people like J. Powell and other people said 400 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: it would. It hasn't boosted inflation. Inflation continues to go down. Now. 401 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: Pushing back on that comment was Treasury Secretary Scott Besson. 402 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: He says Powell is suffering from full fledged tariff derangement syndrome. 403 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: Sounds like Trump derangement syndrome. It's a little bit of both. 404 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: Scott Besson is becoming one of President Trump's strongest wingmen 405 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 1: in going after J. Powell, And he made the same 406 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: point I've been making for a long time, both here 407 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: and other programs here on Real America's Voice. If J. 408 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: Powell cut interest rates last year, just before the election, 409 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: when inflation was higher, why isn't he cutting them now? 410 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: He doesn't really have much of a leg stand on. 411 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: That is the biggest issue to present with the folks 412 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 1: who say J. Powell is doing the right thing. He 413 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: either made a mistake in November or he's making a 414 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 1: mistake now. Either way, he's making a big mistake. All right. 415 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 1: The price of beef still has you pretty upset, has 416 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: me upset. I can tell you that right now, because 417 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: it just won't go down. Now, imagine how Walmart feels 418 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: about it. They feel your pain, and they're decided to 419 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: do something about it. Then a new effort to do something. 420 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: The number one brick and mortar retail giant in the world, Walmart, 421 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: is opening up its own cattle farm and beef processing 422 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: plant now. The newly open facility insint Kansas. Of course, 423 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: it will distribute Angus cuts to six hundred stores across 424 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: the Midwest region. Walmart's gonna look really close to the 425 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 1: results for a while to see if it should open 426 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: another place like this in inother regions of the country. Hey, 427 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: beef prices were up eight point six percent in May 428 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: compared to a year ago. Inflation's going down in so 429 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: many sectors, not beef, And I gotta tell you, I'm 430 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 1: not looking forward to buying my hamburgers from my July 431 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: fourth barbicam. I'm looking forward to eating them and grilling them, 432 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 1: but buying them not so much. All right, the moment 433 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: we all knew was coming has arrived. A new report 434 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: says robots at Amazon facilities are just about to become 435 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: more numerous than the human employees. But don't just shed 436 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: a tear for the blue collar workers. Amazon CEO Andy 437 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: Jasse also recently said that AI technology is likely to 438 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: reduce thousands of white collar positions at the company too. 439 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: But think about this, folks, the people who replaced the 440 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: humans at the warehouses are now going to be replaced 441 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: by AI at their desks. I guess that's karma. Here 442 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: we go. That's progress. All right, ladies and gentlemen, start 443 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: your engines. Okay, everyone, Now, a few months ago on 444 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: this program, I showed you this creepy Jaguar commercial. I 445 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: showed it to you and I had a little bit 446 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: of a pop quiz about it. I said, what is 447 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: missing from this commercial? I mean, what isn't missing is 448 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 1: it's weird. It looks like an updated version of that 449 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: show hr Puffin stuff from the seventies for those of 450 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: you old enough to remember that one. But I asked 451 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: you a question, what's missing from this commercial, and the 452 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: answer was cars. They don't show any of the product here. 453 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: They're showing these weird folks in dresses and said, I 454 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: don't know what's going on in that commercial, but I 455 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: know I'm not seeing any cars. Well, guess what. Jaguar 456 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: isn't seeing any sales. This commercial, which was used to 457 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: rebrand the company, was just one of their many missteps. 458 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: Let me tell you how many cars Jaguar sold in 459 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: all of the European Union in April. The answer forty nine. 460 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: Jaguar only sold forty nine cars in all of Europe 461 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: in the month of April. In case you're wondering, that 462 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: is a ninety seven point five percent decrease from the 463 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 1: year before. This kind of weird rebranding didn't work. They 464 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: didn't show any cars. You knew it on this program 465 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: several months ago when I showed you this ad that 466 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: they were in big trouble over at Jaguar. But I 467 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: didn't think they were going to be in this much trouble. 468 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: I mean, this is almost non existent. Forty nine cars 469 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: a lot of countries in Europe, countries in Europe, and 470 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: they only sold forty nine cars. I can't get over 471 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,719 Speaker 1: that number. But if I can't go over it, how 472 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 1: would you like to be one of the accountants at Jaguar. 473 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: They really can't get over it. Okay, it's a much 474 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: better story over at Ford, where the company reported a 475 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: fourteen point two percent increase in sales from April through 476 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 1: the end of June. Now that was much better than 477 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: almost everyone forecast. Remember this tariff derangement syndrome isn't just 478 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: for J. Powell, It's also for a lot of the 479 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: analysts who analyze a lot of our companies, especially the 480 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: auto industry. They were expecting losses, some of them from Ford, 481 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: let alone a fourteen point two percent increase. Now, a 482 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,360 Speaker 1: lot of that had to do with the employee pricing 483 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: deal that regular buyers started to get in April, so 484 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: they lowered their prices, absorbed a lot of the tariff costs. 485 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 1: But the tower requests actually didn't come that badly to 486 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 1: them anyway, and then they were able to boost their 487 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: sales significantly. Now, there were other big winners in the 488 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 1: last few months in the auto industry. And the reason 489 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: why I'm mentioning this is because they were telling us 490 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: that all of the auto industry, especially the foreign car makers, 491 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: were really going to take a dive again, not so much. 492 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 1: Kia and Hyundai reported their numbers for the first for 493 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 1: that middle three months April through June of this year. 494 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: Kia was up eight percent with their sales, Hunday up 495 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: ten percent with their sales. By the way, those are 496 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 1: all time highs and it's compared to a year ago, 497 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: not compared to earlier in the year or some bad 498 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 1: time in the past, just a year ago. So honestly, again, 499 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: I'm not saying the twers don't have some effect. There's 500 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: a lot of companies that are still scrambling. But again, 501 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: President Trump is making deals quickly to kind of lift 502 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 1: a lot of the towers on a lot of products 503 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: and countries. And as long as that process is going on, 504 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: there's a chance for companies to avoid the biggest problems, 505 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: and the consumers are coming out and getting these deals. 506 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: J Powell needs to look at this. I don't think 507 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 1: he is now. Those numbers are good, but I can't 508 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: wait to see how well the sales are going to look, 509 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 1: how good sales are going to look for BMW and 510 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: a particular one BMW model, the BMW M twocs now. 511 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: BMW says demand for this sporty coup has forced it 512 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: to increase capacity significantly. The hottest markets for this car 513 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: are in the US, China, and their home country of Germany. 514 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: Now here's what a lot of the buyers like. The 515 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six M two CS has a twin turbocharge 516 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: three point zero leaders straight six engine producing five hundred 517 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: and twenty three horse power and four hundred and seventy 518 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: nine pound feet of torque. That's a lot from a 519 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: little coop. People like that. It's not all SUVs, especially 520 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: for some of the gearheads out there. They like some 521 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: of these performance cars and they're getting a lot in 522 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: a smaller package here. And so this car, I'd love 523 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: to see how much it's sales rise. And look when 524 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: those stats come out, probably in a couple of months. Right, 525 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: here's another new car to talk about. Ferrari unveiled its 526 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: new car line called the Amalfi yesterday. Okay, let's talk 527 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: about its power. It has a six hundred and thirty 528 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: one horse power twin turbov eight four seats and it 529 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 1: will be the most affordable Ferrari out there, starting at 530 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: just two hundred and eighty three thousand dollars. But I 531 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 1: have to say something about the name of this car. 532 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: They called it the Amalfi And for those of you 533 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 1: who know about the Amalfi Coast, everyone talks about the 534 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: Amalfi Coast these days. That's why they're naming it after. 535 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,719 Speaker 1: If you've ever talked to anyone at a cocktail party lately, 536 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: they'll tell you how they went to the Amalfi Coast 537 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: in Italy. I know it's beautiful, but it's kind of 538 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 1: like a little buzz place for people to talk about. 539 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: Every ten years or so, there's a new hot place 540 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: that people are going to remember. It was Anguilla a 541 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, that kind of thing. Now it's 542 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: the Amalfi Coast and ferraris jumping on that and calling 543 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: their car that it's expensive but less expensive than other Ferraris, 544 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: And I have to admit it looks good. Okay. Coming up, 545 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: one very courageous student at an Ivy League school. He 546 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: challenged the administration to justify its voted staff rolls a 547 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: few months ago, and now he's been very much vindicated, 548 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: at least in my opinion. We're gonna check back in 549 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: with him in two minutes when American Sunrise Early edition continues. 550 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: It's Wednesday, July second. Here are some of the top 551 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 1: stories this morning. By the slimmest of margins, The Big 552 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: Beautiful Bill passes the Senate thanks to Vice President Vance's 553 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: tie breaking vote. Now the tax cutting and border in 554 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: defense boosting measure is back in the House where it 555 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: just actually cleared another key hurdle. But a full vote 556 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: isn't definitely a decisive one yet we don't know yet. 557 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: President Trump weighs deeper into the New York mayoral race, 558 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: backing Eric Adams over Democrat communists or on Mamdani. Got 559 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: to ask you which is easier hurting the Republican cats 560 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: voting on the budget bill in DC or getting enough 561 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: New York voter voters to see the light. It's a 562 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: it's ass up, I think. But wait, the President isn't 563 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: done yet. He announced last night that Israel has agreed 564 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: to a sixty days ceasefire in Gaza. Now he's waiting 565 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: on Camas to agree. Good luck with that, but he's 566 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: also warning the terrorist group Comas of dire consequences if 567 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: it doesn't agree to this. Sea spar and everyone noted 568 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: just how weird this Jaguar rebranding ad was a few 569 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: months ago. Oh, it also didn't show any cars. The 570 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: result Jaguar only sold forty nine cars in all of 571 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: Europe in April. Yikes. American Sunrise Early Edition continues. Now, 572 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. It's Wednesday, and No, 573 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: I still can't get over the forty nine cars. I mean, 574 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: I really think I might be able to sell forty 575 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: nine cars if I tried to make them in my 576 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: garage in Europe. I think I could do that in 577 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: a month. It's possible. Jaguar not so much. Unbelievable. Welcome 578 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: back again. It is a way and joining us now 579 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: is Brown University student and student activist Alex She And Alex, 580 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: I want to remind our audience. Got to go through 581 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: some graphics and some pictures for them. I first, I 582 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,719 Speaker 1: want to remind them about your work for showing you 583 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: this stunning article first that came out about how you 584 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,959 Speaker 1: challenged administrators at Brown University, your school, to explain what 585 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: they do doge style, and they tried to discipline you 586 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:29,479 Speaker 1: for it, just for asking. Okay, that's part one, Part two. Now, Brown, 587 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: like a lot of other Ivy League schools, is facing 588 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: cuts in its federal funding, so its own president in 589 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: this document has clearly admitted that there's some fat to 590 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: cut in the staffings. This was a paper he sent 591 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: out to everyone Brown I Guess alumni and students and parents, 592 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: and he talked about how he's going to need to 593 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: cut some staff, so kind of admitting that there's some 594 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: bloating out. Before I ask if you're vindicated, I want 595 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: to show everyone your ex post from I Guess yesterday 596 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: where you highlight and circle some of the comments, the 597 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: key passages, and your commentary about how you know you 598 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: were right all along. Okay, so I'm gonna let you 599 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: do a little bit of a victory lap here. But Alex, 600 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: as much as I love talking with you, it isn't 601 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: just about you. This is an epidemic that many of 602 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: us have been talking about for a long time. Luckily 603 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: you came along and you were able to put it 604 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: in a lot less boring fashion by sending this email out. 605 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: How do you feel about it? And by the way, 606 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: do you have a handle now on how many extraneous 607 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: people there are Brown in that administration? Maybe you have 608 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: a number by now, I don't. 609 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 6: Know absolutely there's a ton. 610 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 7: There are three and five non faculty staff members at 611 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 7: Brown University. So we're not talking about professors or people 612 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 7: that actually teach classes. We're talking about administrators, people who 613 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 7: are deans, provosts, whatnot. 614 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 6: And there are a lot. 615 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 7: Of these people and it's not clear what a lot 616 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 7: of them do, and it's looking increasingly likely that a 617 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 7: lot of them are going to have to go. 618 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 6: And this is for multiple reasons. 619 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 7: One of is the reason is the is the pressure 620 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 7: that I'm putting on them. I sent out this email 621 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 7: and this investigative report, and they tried to discipline me, 622 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 7: but actually I was found. 623 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 6: Not guilty of any of the wrongdoing. 624 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 7: But it looks like their disciplinary investigation against me is 625 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 7: actually going to be backfiring as well. You didn't mention this, 626 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 7: but earlier last month, I testified before Congress a Congressional 627 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 7: committee on anti trust violations in the IVY League, including Brown, 628 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 7: why tuition prices are rising, why financially packages seem to 629 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 7: never be enough, and how Brown, I mean, among other 630 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 7: schools in particular, is exceedingly wealthy. Half the students are 631 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 7: from the top five percent of earners, and I just 632 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 7: think that's insane and that's not how the American dream 633 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 7: is supposed to be because these schools are supposed to 634 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 7: be places where smart kids can go and they'll get 635 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 7: financial aid and it will be enough, and they'll be 636 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 7: able to get a better life from there. 637 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 6: These are supposed to be sort of purveyors of social mobility. 638 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 7: But with all the administrators and all the bloat, that's 639 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 7: increasingly not the case. But two new developments besides the 640 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 7: announcement from the President that they might be cutting staff, 641 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 7: is that Umber one that have Judiciary Committee, whom I 642 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 7: testified before, had requested from Brown all of their internal 643 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 7: email records about the disciplinary case against me because they're 644 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 7: saying it's silencing students who are asking about tuition. 645 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 6: I think that's correct, right, is that this is a very. 646 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 7: Salient issue and that the deans who investigated me they 647 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 7: should be looked into at the fullest. But then just 648 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 7: yesterday Brown was actually subpoena for all of their information 649 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 7: about financial aid because the House thinks that there's some 650 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 7: fishy stuff going there and not giving students the aid 651 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 7: that they deserve. And I think they're onto something, and 652 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 7: so all these factors at play seem like it's going 653 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 7: to be pushing Brown into a place where they really 654 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 7: need to do more to make their education more accessible, 655 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 7: and they just can't have these many administrators on the payroll. 656 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 7: It's not financially feasible, and finally they're going to have 657 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 7: to do something about it. 658 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: You know, Alex, I'm more than thirty years older than 659 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: you are, so I know I still kind of sound 660 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: ancient when I say this, But let me tell you something. 661 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: There was a time in America, even when I was 662 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: a little kid, when most college students were paying at 663 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 1: least some of their way through school. So this is 664 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: not a hypothetical or just a make believe question that 665 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: i'd like to ask you. You know, my theory is 666 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 1: so many of the kids who go to these schools, 667 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: whether they're wealthy or not, are not paying their way. 668 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: They're either getting a full scholarship because they're very destitute, 669 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: or their parents are paying, which is the case I 670 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: think with most kids right now, we call them kids. 671 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: Back then, you didn't call college students' kids necessarily. They seemed, 672 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: you know, they seemed they were more mature and they 673 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: were having to pay their own way. I'm not saying 674 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,879 Speaker 1: you're not mature. You're certainly an exception to the rule, 675 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: but paying your own way will get you grown up 676 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: real fast. I have to ask you if most of 677 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: your classmates were paying their own way through school or 678 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 1: a significant amount of their tuition, do you think you 679 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: would be this loan wolf that you've become at Brown. 680 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: I think that there would probably be a lot of 681 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: other Alexis out there asking Hey, why am I paying 682 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 1: so much money for all these bloated positions and things 683 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: like that. I mean, this is a eye product of 684 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: having a third party pay for someone else's education, isn't it. 685 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 6: Absolutely that's absolutely true, and I think that Brown. 686 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 7: Part of the reason why you're seeing so many people 687 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 7: are so upset at me that I'm planning this out 688 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 7: is that they don't understand that at Brown at least, 689 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 7: tuition is like ninety two thousand dollars a year, and 690 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 7: that's an insane amount for a person to pay, and 691 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 7: of course if they were paying that themselves, that they 692 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 7: would be outraged. But again, it's also an effect that 693 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 7: just again half of Brown is from the top five 694 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 7: percent of earners, is that we're looking at a predominantly 695 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 7: wealthy student body here where legacy students get like special 696 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 7: privilege where the children of donors get special privileges, and 697 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 7: that's not medocratic, and of course it's not meritocratic. But 698 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 7: that seems to be why a lot of the people 699 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 7: who are at Brown don't seem to have a problem 700 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 7: with these inordinate sums. And you mentioned right, is that 701 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,439 Speaker 7: there are those wealthy kids who can pay their full way, 702 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 7: and then there are the kids who are of lower 703 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 7: income brackets and they get full finance aid from Brown. 704 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 7: But then there are other kids in the middle who 705 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,800 Speaker 7: get left behind. They're not able to go to Brown 706 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 7: because they earn a bit too much to get those 707 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 7: full scholarships, but they certainly don't have enough that they 708 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 7: can pay ninety thousand. 709 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 6: Dollars a year for a school like Brown. 710 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 7: And so really the middle class is the one who 711 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 7: gets hurt the most and gets left behind by this 712 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,760 Speaker 7: bloat and these exceedingly high prices. 713 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: All right now, this is a story that goes well 714 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: beyond just college education in this country and your situation 715 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: at Brown, because I think the American people, thanks to 716 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: President Trump, have started to understand the amount of money 717 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,439 Speaker 1: that the taxpayers are pouring into these wealthy schools, even 718 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: if they produce policies and produce and pursued agendas that 719 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 1: were more popular. It still would be a scandal that 720 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: so much tax money is going into these schools. So 721 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: of course Harvard is in the crosshairs right now. There's 722 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,399 Speaker 1: some other schools that are about to get back into 723 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: the crosshairs, by the way, but Harvard, with its fifty 724 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:59,240 Speaker 1: three billion dollar endowment, has decided over and over again 725 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 1: not to why not to make even the smallest changes. 726 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: I know that there's some cultural things that will be 727 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: harder for Harvard to change, but for them to enforce 728 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: the civil rights for some of their students and to 729 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: protect the civil rights of these students wouldn't really cost 730 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: them that much. It wouldn't be that hard, but they 731 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,800 Speaker 1: keep refusing to do it. Do you see a similar 732 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 1: obstinence with Brown. I mean the fact that they're basically 733 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,760 Speaker 1: they tried to discipline you rather than make some changes. 734 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: And I think we're seeing the same thing with Harvard. 735 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: And now the taxpayers are involved, right, Alex, because we're 736 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: paying for a lot. 737 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 6: Of this, You bet exactly. 738 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 7: I think that's why it's always been an argument that's 739 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 7: fell kind of flat to me, is, Hey, this is 740 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 7: not a state school. These are private schools. They can 741 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 7: do whatever they want. Well, I mean, they get a 742 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 7: whole bunch of taxpayer money. So you're saying the taxpayer 743 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 7: doesn't get a say about. 744 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 6: How their money is being paid. Of course that's preposterous. 745 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,240 Speaker 7: And then many of these schools are just doing things 746 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 7: again which are patently illegal, like discrimination that's not legal, 747 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 7: that's against the Civil Rights Act of nineteen sixty four, 748 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 7: and stuff that they're doing with with price fixing and 749 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 7: collusion with other schools and setting financial aid prices, and 750 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 7: that's not legal either. That's an anti trust violation, whether 751 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 7: you receive tax payer dollars or not. And I guess 752 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 7: I just think that that it's time that they be 753 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 7: held accountable. Ideology aside is that a lot of these 754 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 7: schools and these university presidents go around thinking that like 755 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 7: they're better than the masses, and it doesn't matter what 756 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 7: what regular Americans think. Is it just matters because we're 757 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 7: supposedly the elites, right, these are elite universities, and sort 758 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 7: of just this this this like this attitude of ignoring 759 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 7: what normal students and parents and Americans think and sort 760 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 7: of in favor of this elitist ideology. That's why prices 761 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 7: are so high. It's because the elites can afford to 762 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 7: pay it, and I think it's wrong. I'm a big 763 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 7: opponent personally again meritocracy, right, So I'm against DEI I'm 764 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,760 Speaker 7: against legacy admissions. I'm against anything that isn't like judging 765 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 7: people based on on on how smart they are, on 766 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 7: what they can accomplish for a school. 767 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 6: And I think, really it's a shame is that. 768 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 8: These schools are overfilled with privileged, rich kids because I 769 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 8: think first of all, they're probably not all the smartest, 770 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 8: and second of all, it's taking away opportunity from poor 771 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 8: kids who could really be making a better life in 772 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 8: themselves if it weren't ninety thousand dollars. 773 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think also the admissions process. And I 774 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: know you were involved in this controversy as well, with 775 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: that case against Harvard, where they created these phony metrics 776 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 1: to try to keep people like you out keep other 777 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: people out who really had worked at it. Looks I 778 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: think we all agree there's never going to be a 779 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: perfect meritocracy. Humans aren't capable of that. But when you 780 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: stop trying to achieve it, good freaking luck. You don't 781 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: want to be in a situation where everyone where someone 782 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: is deciding based on something other than your efforts, how 783 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: you get rewarded in society. That's a scary, scary place 784 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: to be. What's the feeling of students, I mean, you know, 785 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: you were actually on campus we're talking about I'm talking 786 00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: about it from thirty thousand feet. What are some of 787 00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: the other students like, I mean, I assume some of 788 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: them are probably brainwashed by faculty and years of media 789 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 1: influence and things like that. But there are there other 790 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,919 Speaker 1: students who beyond their political leanings, sort of see through 791 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 1: this and talk about it with you. 792 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 7: I mean, there are a bunch of students, and I 793 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 7: mean even students on the left and to sympathize with 794 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 7: me because, I mean, this used to be their issue, right, 795 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 7: is that college affordability crisis. It's cost too much, And 796 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 7: I think it's just so funny in recent years, how 797 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,320 Speaker 7: many of these people, know left, have sort of abandoned 798 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 7: this issue of making education more more accessible, more egalitarian. 799 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 7: I thought that was something that they were fighting for, 800 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 7: but apparently not. Apparently at the end of the day, 801 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 7: they're they're with the colleges who are setting these extreme prices. 802 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 7: And are getting subdized by the taxpayer and are still 803 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 7: inordinately expensive. But again, yeah, that those there are some 804 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 7: people who who have support, but those people again are 805 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 7: far and few between. If you look at the composition 806 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 7: of campus like Brown, there are a few libertarians and 807 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 7: conservative I consider myself to be a libertarian, but I 808 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 7: think the overwhelming majority of students are somewhere on the left, 809 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 7: whether that be like MSNBC liberals who like Biden and 810 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 7: Kamala are people who are even further left than that, 811 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 7: and they want to and they think like Israel is 812 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 7: genocidal and stuff like that, and so really it's just 813 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 7: that's main. Really, the main divide I've Brown is like 814 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 7: the normy liberals and then sort of like the socialists. 815 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 7: There aren't really that many people to whom even considering 816 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 7: President Trump or any of these sort of more libertarian 817 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 7: policies is even on a table form. 818 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 6: I think that's really a shame. 819 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 7: It's because for all this talk about diversity, there doesn't 820 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 7: seem to be a lot of diversity of opinion. 821 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 1: That's right, Well, I'll give you a hot tip if 822 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: you want to see some diversity of opinion religion and 823 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: everything else like that. You got to go to the 824 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,399 Speaker 1: sports teams at the IVY schools. That's the only place 825 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 1: you probably find it. Alex She congratulations on being vindicated, 826 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: and thank you so much for your work and being courageous. 827 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: I see a bright future for you. I wish all 828 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: the students were like you, but I'm glad you're around 829 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 1: and we're not going to check back in with you 830 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: in the coming months. 831 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 6: Thank you so much, thanks for having me all right. 832 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 1: Coming up, another IVY League school is making a very 833 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: big Maya culpa, and hopefully it will have as much 834 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: of an impact as it did when that school made 835 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: the big mistake in the first place. David Brody and 836 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,359 Speaker 1: I will discuss when American Sunrise Early edition comes right back. 837 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: We had a rainy afternoon and overnight here in New 838 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: York City, and you can see the effects of that. 839 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,720 Speaker 1: Sell people with some umbrellas. I see one person there 840 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: in Times Square as we look at that live this morning. 841 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 1: It should be a lot of tourists in the city 842 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: for July fourth weekend. I hope it remains safe. I 843 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 1: hope we don't have any stupid demonstrations. I hope people 844 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: enjoy themselves and the way, it looks like it's going 845 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: to be pretty good. So that's awesome. Welcome back to 846 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition. It's Wednesday. I'm Jake Novak. Justice, Justice, 847 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: you shall pursue. That's from the Bible, folks, And for 848 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 1: the people who have spent almost five years pursuing justice 849 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,280 Speaker 1: for female athletes at the University of Pennsylvania, the Ivy 850 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,960 Speaker 1: League and all over America, justice is now being served. 851 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: That's because the University of Pennsylvania is reversing its transathlete policy. 852 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 1: Why is this important because this is where this nonsense 853 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: started several years ago, when one of the swimmers on 854 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:38,919 Speaker 1: the men's penn swim team declared himself transgender, switched over 855 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: to the women's team, and subdenly started winning Ivy League 856 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: ANDAA championships, boxing out women who had worked for years 857 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 1: for their recognition and to be not only on the team, 858 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: but to succeed. And then of course we had people 859 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: like Riley Gaines at other schools talking out about this 860 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: and on and on down the line. 861 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 3: Well. 862 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 1: As part of a deal with the Trump administration to 863 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: save its taxpayer funding, penn has now decided to ban 864 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:07,720 Speaker 1: trans athletes in their sports program and rescind take away 865 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: those records that Leah Thomas succeeded at gaining because basically 866 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,800 Speaker 1: he was a man competing against women. David Brody, you 867 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 1: texted out to our group yesterday saying this was huge news. 868 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. What does this mean to you, 869 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 1: this decision? Obviously we're not we're not college athletes. I 870 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe you were. I'm not, but I did, 871 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: and I still do, cover a lot of college sports, 872 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 1: especially in the IVY League, and I can tell you 873 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: I feel vindicated, and I also feel very relieved. Yeah. 874 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 9: Well, first of all, the only college athletic event all 875 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 9: participating in is binge eating. So that's let's get that 876 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 9: off the table. 877 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 7: Us. 878 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 9: Because you know, we talk a lot about politics, but 879 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 9: I care a lot more deeply about the culture of 880 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 9: this country, on the fan of this country, and this 881 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 9: strikes right at the heart of it in a good 882 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 9: way this time. Look, I mean, first of all, let's 883 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 9: not congratulate University of Pennsylvania here. Okay, they were dragkicking 884 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 9: and screaming of this. They violated Title nine. It was 885 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 9: a civil rights violation and they would never have done 886 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 9: this if it weren't for Trump. Trump has a way 887 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 9: of bending people to their knees and I love that, 888 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:27,720 Speaker 9: especially when it comes to the culture stuff. Uh so, uh, look, 889 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 9: Leah Thomas. That's what he calls himself. His name is 890 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 9: William Thomas. He has decided to go by Lea Thomas. 891 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,239 Speaker 9: But let's not be fooled. And you know, kind of 892 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 9: just a quick little tangent, a little aside. But if 893 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 9: you look in Wikipedia in all those places, right, you 894 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 9: see that it's Leah Thomas, and they talk about she 895 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 9: she she, And then not only that, they never mentioned 896 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 9: anything at all about the transition process at all at all. 897 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 9: It's just like she was born in nineteen whatever it is, 898 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,799 Speaker 9: or two thousand, whatever it is. And they do this 899 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:08,240 Speaker 9: for all of the transgender folks out there, so obviously 900 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 9: that's all inaccurate. Anyhow, really happy about this and most 901 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 9: importantly happy for the female athlete to finally get what 902 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 9: they deserve, which is recognition. And I know it comes late, 903 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 9: and I know it doesn't come in the form of 904 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 9: maybe a metal ceremony or anything like that. But if 905 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 9: you look on the Penn website, you do see their 906 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 9: name at the top of the list. There rather than 907 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 9: William Thomas's name. He is no longer. He is gone 908 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:38,240 Speaker 9: from the recordings. 909 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,399 Speaker 1: Love it, Yeah, I mean listen. We can talk about 910 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: the mental health issues, and we can talk about personal rights, 911 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,319 Speaker 1: which I'm basically for, but not when they infringe upon others, 912 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,359 Speaker 1: especially others who have worked so hard for recognition. And 913 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 1: you are really being anti woman if you decide that 914 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: a man can decide your percent anytime he wants. All Right, 915 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:57,759 Speaker 1: the big show coming up next. I'll see you in 916 00:46:57,800 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 1: the nine o'clock hour. Thanks a lot,
