1 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:07,280 Speaker 1: Ahead on American Sunrise early edition. So how did it happen? 2 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,720 Speaker 1: National Security Advisor Mike Waltz says he doesn't know how 3 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: a journalist got into a private chat of America's strategy 4 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: versus the Hooties. President Trump is publicly backing Waltz and 5 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: the rest of his cabinet. Something fishy is going on here. 6 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: Russia and Ukraine expand the scope of their ceasefire, including 7 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:30,319 Speaker 1: Black Sea targets in this list of zones not to 8 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:36,319 Speaker 1: attack is a full piece close at hand. So much 9 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: for Boston Mayor Michelle Wou's defiant sanctuary city promises. ICE 10 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: has just wrapped up an extensive sweep of being town 11 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:49,840 Speaker 1: with a major number of arrests. Here's the latest, would 12 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 1: be martyr for the anti Semitic hate mobs at Columbia University. 13 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: This South Korean student is being portrayed as an innocent victim, 14 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: just a few weeks after being arrested for a violent 15 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: takeover of a classroom building on campus. Hey, if you 16 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: can't do the time, then don't commit the crime. And 17 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: speaking of Columbia, double talk from the school's interim president, 18 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: who's been caught saying one thing to the Feds and 19 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: something else to a radical faculty. Now everybody hates her. 20 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition starts now. Welcome to American Sunrise 21 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: Early Edition, the show where faith, freedom and the values 22 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: that built this nation takes centers to your good thiefs 23 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: and bad deaths. That's how we're gonna judge you. Join 24 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: host Jake Novak because he breaks down the stories that matter. 25 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: He will be letting the public know regularly what we 26 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: have found. 27 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Nobak, starts now. 28 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition. The announcer did not lie. 29 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: I am Jake Nock, and thank you for joining me 30 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: on this Wednesday. Also joining us is retired Air Force 31 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,519 Speaker 1: Lieutenant Colonel Larry Brock and Colonel Listen. You've looked over 32 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: what was discussed in that signal chat. We've talked about 33 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: it off the air. Does it look first of all, 34 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: does it look like anything in a specific war plan, times, 35 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: specific targets, longitudes and latitudes. Does it look like anything 36 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: that was leaked out? Let's first establish that one way 37 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:27,119 Speaker 1: or the other. 38 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: No, absolutely not, Jake. Any type of war plan is 39 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 2: always going to contain you know, objectives, presidential decisions matrixes, 40 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: and then you have what's called the time force phased deployment, 41 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: the tip fit, and so that's going to be in there. 42 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 2: You're going to have the war requisite munitions, and then honestly, 43 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 2: hundreds of pages of logistics, beans and bombs. This was 44 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 2: nothing resembling a war plan. So it was a gross 45 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: mischaracterization by the media to label it as a warplan. 46 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think now that that narrative changed 47 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: a little bit. Now it's well, how did somebody get 48 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: into the chat as opposed to really putting our troops 49 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: are airmen and everything else like that in danger. But 50 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: you know, Colonel, it does seem like there's a potential 51 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: setup going on here. This is how our own Jack 52 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: Pisovic described it on Steve Bannon's War Room here on 53 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: Real America's Voice. Listen to this. 54 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: All of this happened this text chain. Everything to talk 55 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 3: about is the attack on the Hooties that took place 56 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 3: on March fifteenth, Saturday, the Heights of March. Do you 57 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 3: think it's just random that it got released yesterday? Walk 58 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 3: I got a minute for you, Puts, so before you 59 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 3: got a bounce, talk about that talk about this. This 60 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 3: was a hearing that was set up. It was Andrew, 61 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 3: go ahead, tell us about how this was a setup. 62 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,559 Speaker 1: It's not random, one hundred percent coordinated. 63 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 4: You really think that it's the Atlantic, which you've always 64 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,839 Speaker 4: told you is the central mouthpiece for the deep state apparatus, 65 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 4: the blob apparatus is Mike ben calls it the Atlantis apparatus, mouthpiece, 66 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 4: their number one guy, the guy who was behind the 67 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 4: Suckers and Losers hopes, the piece that was the same 68 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 4: outlet that was behind the Russian bounties and so many 69 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 4: other hoaxes throughout the years, in coordination with the Democrats 70 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 4: on sci on this hearing the day before they knew 71 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 4: it came out. If you don't understand you're looking at 72 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 4: a coordinated operation, then you must have been asleep for 73 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 4: the last eight years. Understand this is being done the 74 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 4: derail maga. This is being done to derail the agenda. 75 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 4: This is being done to try to isolate various Cabinet members, 76 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 4: pick them off and attack them one by one, or 77 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 4: to get them to fight amongst each other. That's why 78 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 4: it's going on right now. That's how these things always happen. 79 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 4: You're looking at an operation. You don't think you're looking 80 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 4: at operation, you better wake up because you're in one. 81 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: And Colonel Brock I would add that in the last 82 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: couple of hours. Mark Penn, who used to be Bill 83 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: Clinton's polster and political advisor, has also posted that he 84 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: thinks the chances that this was a setup, a deliberate 85 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: attack on the cabinet by some maybe a disgruntal staffer, 86 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: is ninety percent. This is a former Clinton staffer saying 87 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: that does this seem like a plausible explanation to you 88 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: with your experience. 89 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 2: It does that you know a staffer might have added 90 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: them to the chat. I do question how long it 91 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 2: was before you know, it was actually revealed that he 92 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 2: was in the chat, and then you know, when I 93 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 2: looked at the context of what was actually said, I 94 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 2: didn't see anything that bad. And I, you know, I 95 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 2: think it's either that Jake, and you're right. I would 96 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 2: put the odds at nine chances out of ten that 97 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: that it was a staffer that did that to embarrass 98 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 2: the administration. But it also could be a move to 99 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 2: just put pressure on Europe because the whole chat between 100 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 2: you know, these alleged gentlemen, I guess it looks like 101 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 2: could be a SYE up. So I would put that 102 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 2: at about a ten percent chance, where we just wanted 103 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: to let the Europeans know that we're not happy that 104 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: they're not, if you will, contributing more to the war 105 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 2: on the Huthi, because honestly, forty percent of their trade 106 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 2: goes through the Suez Canal, whereas only three percent of 107 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: US trade goes through the Suez Canal. 108 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, Meanwhile, they've been burying the lead for 109 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: the last few days. I talked about it yesterday on 110 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: the program and also on Monday. The leader of the 111 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: Hutis Abdul Malek al Huti, is very likely been killed. 112 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: Now we haven't heard or seen from him in a 113 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: few days. There are reports out of some Middle Eastern 114 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: news outlets that he was killed. And you just got 115 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: to wonder, a guy who's been perpetrating this massive terrorism 116 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: on the military and commercial targets in the world for 117 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: this long being killed is not the lead story here. 118 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the least. I mean, maybe they don't 119 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 1: want President Trump to take a you know, to be 120 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: able to take a victory lap on that. I mean again, 121 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: he might he might show up alive in a couple 122 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: of days, but definitely the leadership of the Uties has 123 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: been hit pretty hard. Whether he's dead or not, but it, 124 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: you know, it does look like him. It's looking like 125 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: sixty forty he might be gone. To me, this is 126 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: a this is you know, he's the Osama bin Laden 127 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: of Yemen. I mean, this guy has been running more 128 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: than just a tax on us. This is a long 129 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: running terrorist war and he's potentially eliminated. That really should 130 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: be the top story no matter where you are politically. 131 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 2: No, I completely agree. Anytime we take out you know, 132 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: leadership from them, it's definitely a victory for us. And 133 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 2: you know, if you look at it in the broader 134 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 2: power play like we've talked about before, I mean, the 135 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 2: Huthi are just a surrogate of Iran, and so I 136 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: think you're seeing the administration really ramp up pressure on 137 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: Iran and Jake, I don't know if you've noticed, but 138 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 2: there are seven B two Spirit bombers that are now 139 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: in Diego, Garcia, which is very conveniently located close to Iran. 140 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 2: And you don't need B two Spirit bombers to hit 141 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 2: the Huthi. We can do that just fine. With the 142 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: Navy carrier Strike Group that's over there right now. 143 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, Yemen I think has like three two 144 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: story buildings or something that other countries built for them. 145 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: You don't need one B two bomber little And would 146 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: you say seven seven be too seven? That's obviously a 147 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: message to a much more fortified and built up infrastructure. 148 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely well, Colonel, I guess this is encouraging news. We 149 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: learned late yesterday that Russia and Ukraine have expanded their 150 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 1: curren ceasefire to include targets in and around the Black Sea. 151 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: Now I want to celebrate this, But am I being 152 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: too optimistic? 153 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 2: Honestly, no, I don't think you are. I'm very encouraged 154 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: right now with what we're seeing. I worry about if 155 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 2: this goes off the rails, what could happen. But I'm 156 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: hopeful that Ukraine will actually follow through. As long as 157 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: we keep Europe from deploying troops there, I think we've 158 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 2: got a real chance at peace. But my understanding is 159 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 2: that special forces in the UK have been giving warning 160 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 2: orders to go to the Ukraine, and we absolutely cannot 161 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: have that happen because if Zelenski believes he's going to 162 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 2: be bolstered by European troops on the ground. I don't 163 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: think he's going to give up the fight, whereas I 164 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 2: believe right now he will, and we really need peace 165 00:08:59,360 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 2: in that region. 166 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little bit, and you know, full disclosure, 167 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: I don't have a fishing lodge on the Black Sea. 168 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: That's not why I'm celebrating this. I'm celebrating it for 169 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: the same reason. Hey, Colonel Brock, I can't let you 170 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: go before I get your take on this. Ex post 171 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth a couple of days ago 172 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: in response to that federal judge who ordered the Trump 173 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: administration to reinstate trans soldiers based on her assessment of 174 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: defense capabilities and priorities. He posted quote, since Judge Reis 175 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: is now a top military planner, she they can report 176 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: to Fort Benning at O six hundred to instruct our 177 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: Army rangers on how to execute high value target rates. 178 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 1: After that, Commander Rays can dispatch to Fort Bragg to 179 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: train our green beres on counter resurgeny warfare. Hey, does 180 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: that sound about right to you? Colonel? 181 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely? You know, I think we're seeing the judicial branch 182 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 2: honestly getting out of its Lane, and I thought that was, 183 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: you know, a brilliant response to that. You know, sarcasm 184 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 2: or sarcasm is a great tool that Americans always appreciate. 185 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 2: I you know, I think Pete tex Seth was perfectly 186 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 2: within bounds to poke fun at the judge there for 187 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 2: stepping into his roles and responsibilities under our government. 188 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think that. I mean again, I wish 189 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: I could say it's going to go all one way 190 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: or the other, But I think that, And we saw 191 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: some of these decisions overturned yesterday, by the way, not 192 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: on the trans decision, but on some other decisions. I 193 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: think eventually we will see about a seventy thirty maybe 194 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: eighty twenty victory for the Trump administration in these cases. 195 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: But you know, the amount of money and time that's 196 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: being spent basically defining something that should be very clearly 197 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: defined constitutionally is probably the most frustrating thing for me. 198 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: I don't expect opponents of President Trump to clam up. 199 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: I don't expect them to do that, no matter how 200 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 1: outrageous it is. But you would expect them to admit 201 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: the two plus two equals four. Lieutenant Colonel Larry Brock, 202 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: Thanks so much for joining us. I know it's only Wednesday, 203 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: but I'm going to say, have a good weekend because 204 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: I believe in the weekend. Thank you so much for 205 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 1: joining me me too. All right, thank you, all right? 206 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: Coming up more details on how Tom Holman and Ice 207 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: Prew just how empty Mayor Michelle wou of Boston's sanctuary 208 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: city promises really are. Sanctuary cities have a zero percent 209 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: batting average. By the way, throughout history, go back to 210 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: your Bible, I'll explain. And did Columbia University really do 211 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: anything to meet the Trump administration's demands to uphold the 212 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: civil rights of this country the laws? We have here 213 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 1: a revealing report on that. When American Sunrise Early edition 214 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: comes right back, Welcome back to American Sunriser leadership. That 215 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: is our hard working West Palm Beach Control room and 216 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: heads up control room. I have a joke for you 217 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: guys that is just about you guys coming up in 218 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 1: the next block, not this block. You will appreciate it. Hey, 219 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: Welcome also to everyone on Getter and Rumble. I'm in 220 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: both chats right now. I don't know how the heck 221 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: I'm doing this. During the commercial breaks, my mom would 222 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: tell me to focus, but I love it anyway. Hey, 223 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: you know how Boston Mayor Michelle wu was boasting last 224 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: week about how she's going to keep Boston a sanctuary 225 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: city and stand up to President Trump. Yeah, that's not working. 226 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: Borders are. Tom Holman says ICE rounded up three hundred 227 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: and seventy illegal aliens in Boston over the last several days. 228 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 1: That's a lot, by the way, officially three hundred and 229 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: seventy a lot. A Holman even admitted that some of 230 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 1: the illegal aliens who they rounded up weren't exactly the 231 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: prime criminal targets they were looking for, but a that's 232 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: what happens when you hang out with violent illegal aliens. 233 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: If you're also in illegal alien you might want to 234 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: find a better crowd to hang out with. That's just 235 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: my personal advice. But the bottom line is Mayor Michelle 236 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: her bold promises aren't real. Sanctuary cities have never worked 237 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 1: if you are a real criminal. That is again, go 238 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: back to the Bible, the story of King David. Read 239 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: about what happened to his generals. They tried to hide 240 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: out in sanctuary city and actual sanctuaries. They were criminals. 241 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: It didn't work out for them. So you got three 242 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: thousand years with a history and people still use the 243 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: term sanctuary city. That's like promoting an edseul. They don't work, 244 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: all right, Move on, all right? Interim Columbia University President 245 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: Katrina Armstrong, Oh yes, my alma mater, Columbia getting more 246 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: and more embarrassed by the day. She has found a 247 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: way to make everyone hate her. That's a talent, by 248 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: the way, when you think about it. She has now 249 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: been caught telling the federal government one thing and her 250 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: radical faculty something else, specifically on the banning of masks. Now, look, 251 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: you might think that the masks are annoying when we 252 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: walk on the street these days, we see someone in 253 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: a mask, and maybe we think they're crazy. But the 254 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: mask that these people are using in these violent protests 255 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: at Columbia and other universities is absolutely part of the 256 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: mo and the federal government knows that and once to 257 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: see that ended in the hopes that this will stop 258 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: some of the students who might be getting influenced by 259 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: the hamas operatives who are on these campuses. And so 260 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: Columbia President Katrina A. Song told President Trump's administration that 261 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: she was banning masks, but then in her private meeting 262 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: with the radical faculty a day or so later, she 263 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: told him there is no mask ban. This is not 264 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: gonna work like this. And I don't think she has 265 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 1: a very very long tenure ahead of her. Katrina Armstrong 266 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: was going to probably be replaced, probably this summer or 267 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: as soon as the semester ends in May, because now 268 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: nobody likes her. The faculty is still angry at her, 269 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: and the Trump administration certainly doesn't trust her. Good job 270 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: making everybody angry. I don't know what she would lose 271 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: by imposing this mass ban. These radical faculty are gonna 272 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: hate you anyway. Just go ahead and do the right 273 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: thing for your students. Unbelievable, all right, First there was Woodstock, 274 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: then there was Lallapalooza, and now it's the Fight the 275 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: Oligaky Tour Oligarchy. I should say, Hey, that really rolls 276 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: off the tongue, doesn't it. Well, that's what Bernie Sanders 277 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: and aoc are his sidekick, are calling the national tour 278 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: they're doing with a bunch of rallies, the Fighting the 279 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: Oligarchy Tour. What I wouldn't give to have a guy 280 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: at the entrance to some of those rallies with a 281 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: hidden camera asking everyone to come into those rallies to 282 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: either spell or explain what our lagarchy means. That would 283 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: be some serious, serious comedy. But of course The New Yorker, 284 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: the New York Times, and all the other major liberal 285 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: outlets Mother Jones are all talking about this tour like 286 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: it really is Woodstock. It's really going to change some stuff. 287 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: Don't expect this tour to change the polls in any 288 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: way whatsoever. This is not going to work. And even 289 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: people like MSNBC host Michael Steele, our guess he's just 290 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: a contributor, is telling them to change the name, change 291 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: the name to what. We don't know what we're angry about. 292 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: I don't really know what that's going to accomplish for anyone. 293 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: All Right, coming up, It's been a long time since 294 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: I've been thiss perturbed by one of Wall Street's typical 295 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: con jobs. But something really seems fishy to me about 296 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: something I told you about you learned about on this 297 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: program last week involving Carvana. I will explain. Don't get 298 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: in that, Sam and sh be very very quiet. I'm 299 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: hunting rabbits. No, I mean, I'm looking for the quietest 300 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: car or suv around. Someone actually tested this out and 301 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: there is a winner. This is very useful for cheating spouses. 302 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know why you need to 303 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: have the quietest car, but I'm gonna tell you which 304 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: one it is. When American Sunrise Early Edition comes right back, 305 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: it's a live shot of Wildwood, New Jersey on the 306 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: Jersey Shore. Don't be fooled by that shot. It's cold, 307 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: but it's not not yet. No, no, well, it's almost 308 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 1: at warm weather here in the New York, New Jersey area. 309 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to that. I live on the Long 310 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: Island Beaches, so I guess I'm supposed to have a 311 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: rivalry with the Jersey Beaches. I'm not really sure. I 312 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: love how people from Jersey, Long Island and Westchester make 313 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: fun of each other. They're all the same. Okay, they're 314 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: all the same. They're suburbs of New York City. Get 315 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: over yourself, all right. Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. 316 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: I am Jake Novak again. A special welcome to the 317 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: people in the Ghetter and the rumble Chat people having 318 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: a lot of fun with some of the things we've 319 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: been talking about. Let's take a look at where the 320 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: markets are going to start today. Look at that big 321 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: goose egg on the Dow. I mean, we're literally flat 322 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 1: on the tower right now. The markets have basically recovered 323 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 1: from their tower freakout. They're waiting on some earnings reports 324 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 1: that are coming out today. Also, and I don't want 325 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: to be too boring here, but you get the Durable 326 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: Goods Orders report. That's like for big things like jets, 327 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: washing washer and dryers and things like that. That's always 328 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,679 Speaker 1: considered to be a big gauge for the economy. Oh 329 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: now we're up one on the Dow. Look at that. 330 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: Buy something somebody. All right, Let's take a look at 331 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: bitcoin for a second, because that has been moving ever 332 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 1: so slowly. We're at the eighty eight thousand dollars mark 333 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: for bitcoin again just a few days ago. Eighty two thousand, 334 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: six thousand dollars. You know, that's a pretty neat decent 335 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: percentage here. It's you know, almost nine percent of a 336 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 1: gain in just a few days. That's pretty good on 337 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: your money. So bitcoins sort of creeping up right now. 338 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: And that's where we're looking at of the markets. All right, folks, 339 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: I have to get something off my chest because this 340 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: involves you. Last week on this program, I told you 341 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 1: about how Amazon was now getting into the used car business. 342 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,959 Speaker 1: And I noted then, and I was not alone when 343 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: I did this, that Amazon was basically stealing Carvona's business model. 344 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: I noted, and I was not alone, that this was 345 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: not good news for Carvana, because look, folks, when Amazon 346 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: gets into your business model, your chances of surviving, or 347 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: at least surviving as well as you were before, are 348 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: pretty much zero. It's annoying to me. I think Amazon 349 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: should have been broken up as a monopoly many years ago. 350 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: By the way, when they split their headquarters up between 351 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: out there on the West coast in Washington State and Washington, DC, 352 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: to me, that was an obvious point to split them up. 353 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: So I'm not cheerleading Amazon here. I'm just telling you 354 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: how powerful they are. Well after Amazon got into the 355 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 1: business last week, and I told you all about it, 356 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 1: you're among the first to know about it, something really 357 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: suspicious happened yesterday. Morgan Stanley, the big investment house, decided 358 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 1: to upgrade upgrade Carva stock and talking about how it 359 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: has a lot of room to run and a lot 360 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: of room to grow, Okay, maybe they were just wrong 361 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: about that, right, But then I looked at the entire 362 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: report and there's not one mention of Amazon getting into 363 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: the business. Now, this is either negligent some highly paid 364 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: analyst from Morgan Stanley, a very very wealthy investment house, 365 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 1: missing out on a major story. I guess that's possible, 366 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 1: but that's not really really likely. Here's what is more 367 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: likely to have happened. There are many clients at Morgan 368 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: Stanley who will have a lot of money in Carvana, 369 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 1: private equity investors, people who are like billionaires who have 370 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: a lot of Carvona shares. They're freaking out just like 371 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: anybody else would be when Amazon got into the Carvana business. 372 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: And so, all of a sudden, the timing is just 373 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: too stinky for me not to point it out. All 374 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: of a sudden, that's when Mike, when Morgan Stanley, decides 375 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: to upgrade the stock of Carvana at the moment when 376 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: they're having the biggest challenge to their business ever. In 377 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 1: a theoretical way, no, this is them pumping the stock up, 378 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: getting mom and pop to buy shares of the stock 379 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: so that they're very very wealthy investors will have more 380 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: time and more profit when they unload something that they 381 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: know now is being threatened by Amazon. This is not 382 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: anything unique that I'm just telling you. This happens all 383 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: the time. There should be no reporting of upgrades and downgrades, 384 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: unless when I'm telling you right now about how something 385 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: fishy is going on. It's never a public information that 386 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: they're giving out to people who aren't their clients for free. 387 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: They have another reason for doing it. No one should 388 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 1: ever report this stuff. So I am calling bs On 389 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: Morgan Stanley, and I'm trying to tell you, all right now, 390 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: be very very careful, don't listen to this kind of stuff. 391 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: It is really really scary when an investment house tells 392 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: you to buy a stock when you're not even their client. 393 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: What could possibly be the good reason for them to 394 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: do that? Think about it, all right? It bothered me 395 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: a lot. I don't like to see people getting suckered 396 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: by Wall Street. It really bothers me, all right. Sometimes 397 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: you gotta ask do you have enough money to make 398 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: this purchase? Sir? 399 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 5: Now. 400 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: New York Post reporter and my buddy, Charlie Gasparino says, 401 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: the guy who bought the Boston Celtics, his name is 402 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: Bill Chisholm absolutely shocked his partners at his private equity 403 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: firm when he told them he was buying the legendary 404 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: NBA team with the group of other backers. Chisholm insists 405 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: he's good for the six point one billion dollar sale price, 406 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: but we shall see now. Don't laugh about the fact 407 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:09,719 Speaker 1: that he may not have the money, because this has 408 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: happened before, with sports teams being bought before by people 409 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 1: who didn't turn out to really have the money. The 410 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: most famous case was a guy named John Spano who 411 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 1: quote bought the New York Islanders NHL team in the 412 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: late nineteen nineties. He was the owner and even making 413 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: deals and trades for a short time before anyone noticed 414 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: he didn't have the money and the checks were bouncing. 415 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: But the guys in the controller room are all New 416 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: York Rangers fans, so they're gonna say the Islanders are 417 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: a phony team anyway, But seriously, this does happen. They 418 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: got to really be careful with this guy, build Chisholm. 419 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a phony, but man, would it 420 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: be funny if he were. All Right, it's time to 421 00:22:45,640 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: turn the ignition and hit the road, you know, I've 422 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: been ignoring the elephant in the room lately, because so 423 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: here's an important question. If a big time auto or 424 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: other kinds of manufacturing comes back to the United States, 425 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: let's say back to nineteen fifties levels, here's a question. 426 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 1: I don't know if we've been asking enough. Will we 427 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: have enough workers to do the work now? It's not 428 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: a given because of the destruction of the vocational schools 429 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: and vocational tracks in many of our public school systems. 430 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: By the way, this is the disingenuous argument a lot 431 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: of people make for open borders, but we don't have 432 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 1: enough people who can do this work. Well, you destroyed 433 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: the vocational schools in this country. That's why we don't 434 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: have enough people to do the work, not because we 435 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: don't have actually enough bodies now. Of course, the unions 436 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: could have pitched in here by dedicating themselves to big 437 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: time apprentice programs. When I would get into arguments about 438 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: big time unions and how they weren't really great for workers, 439 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: I would always hear back from them about how, oh, 440 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: it's great they have these apprentice programs that fill the 441 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: gaps that the schools don't provide when it comes to 442 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 1: learning certain trades. Here's the problem. They don't do it. 443 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: The UAW only cares about its older workers and its retirees. 444 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: If you don't believe me, look at the details of 445 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: every major contract the uawas signed with Detroit automakers over 446 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: the last gazillion years. They backload all the big pay increases, 447 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: all the big benefit increases for those workers that have 448 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: the most seniority, and for retirees and retiree benefits. People 449 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: who come in maybe thinking about joining the UAW and 450 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 1: wanting to have that kind of life have to wait 451 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: a very long time and an increasingly longer time before 452 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: they really cash in and get the benefits of the 453 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: older members. That is not a recipe for success for 454 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: the unions. Okay, it's also not a recipe or success 455 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: for a manufacturing base in this country. Now, this is 456 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: why the states who will hopefully take over from the 457 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: Department of Education once it's mostly dismantled, will need to 458 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 1: get control of their curricula again. And this is a 459 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: good part of the story. I guarantee you that school 460 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: boards and places like Michigan and Indiana will make vocational 461 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: programs in their high schools and in their junior highs, 462 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: a priority that the Fed federal government has not. Education 463 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: should be localized, not just because it allows the parents 464 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: to know a little bit more about what the kids 465 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: they're learning. We've learned a lot about that with all 466 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: the Woke curriculum and everything else like that. But there's 467 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: another reason. A local state knows what its people need 468 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: when factories are moving in and they need to have 469 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 1: people who are qualified to work there, et cetera, et cetera, 470 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: et cetera. Give it back to the states. All right, 471 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:28,199 Speaker 1: here comes the Hemi. Stilantis is planting to planning to 472 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: reintroduce the Hemi lineup of V eight engines this August 473 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: in its RAM trucks. Production will be moved to the 474 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 1: Dundee Engine Plan in Michigan. The Hemi V eight engines 475 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 1: had been built a while ago at an Engine Plan 476 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: in Mexico, but that facility now makes the twin turbocharge 477 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: V six engines that you find in the Ram fifteen hundred, 478 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: the Jeep wagoneer, and that upcoming vehicle, the Dodge Chargers 479 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: six packs. So back to the Hemi, and maybe even 480 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: more importantly, back to the US. It's a very popular 481 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: engine among gearheads. The Dodge Ram needs to compete better again, 482 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: it's the Ford F one fifty or that company is 483 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: going to be in serious trouble bringing back the HEMV 484 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: eight might be able to do that. We'll see. All right, 485 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: Car and driver has done the work for you. If 486 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: you are looking for the quietest ride around now. Controller 487 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: was asking me a good question, is this quiet as 488 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: in quiet for you as a driver? You don't hear 489 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: the outside road noise or quiet for everyone else on 490 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 1: the street. The answer is quiet for everyone else on 491 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: the street. It's how loud the car is to everyone 492 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: else who's on the road and maybe hearing it outside. Okay, 493 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,719 Speaker 1: the winner isn't even an electric car. To me, that 494 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: was a really surprise. I thought electric cars were supposed 495 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: to be really quiet, but you know that kind of 496 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: high pitched squeal they sort of make. I guess that's 497 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: what disqualified them. So the winner is the Bentley Benega 498 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: SUV and SUV was the winner, even though it's a 499 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: gas power at SUV. Sadly it has a very loud 500 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: price tag MSRP is more than two hundred and three 501 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Sh quiet, I'm listening to the Bentley Ken here, 502 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: all right, And why bother to steal cars from the 503 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: streets when you can swipe them from the factory directly. 504 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: That's what a Michigan man and some of his accomplices 505 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: have done and been arrested for. In Kentucky. Eight Corvette 506 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: C eight models like the one you see here were swiped, 507 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: but cops found them just before they were trying to 508 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: be selling them to would be buyers at a low's 509 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: parking lot in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Twenty one year old 510 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: Dean ta Walker from Westland, Michigan has been arrested as 511 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 1: the ring leader of this How many times have we 512 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: done stories about guys going crazy and cars are stealing 513 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: cars and they're under twenty two years old? Twenty these 514 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 1: the young people in America are getting inventive. I just 515 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 1: wish they were doing it on the right side of 516 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: the law. But anyway, we still don't know how he 517 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,400 Speaker 1: got the vets out of the factory. That's what I'd 518 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: really like to know. That is a sweet car. You 519 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: can see why he wanted to grab some of those, 520 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: all right? Coming up? Do you rely on Wikipedia for 521 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: history and other crucial info? I hope not, because at 522 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: the very least. The information on that site is boring 523 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 1: and badly written, but millions of people do rely on Wikipedia, 524 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: and of course that site is biased as heck. I'll 525 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: have the latest on Wikipedia's war on the truth and 526 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: fairness just ahead, and that Kamas is really really weak. 527 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: This large number of Palestinians and Gaza coming out to 528 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: protest against Kamas is how we know. More on that 529 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: bit of great news when American Sunrise Early edition comes 530 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: right back.

Is full piece close 534 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: at hand? Or am I just being a polyann So 535 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: how did it it happened? National Security Advisor Mike walt 536 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: says he doesn't know how a journalist got into a 537 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: private chat about America's strategy versus the Houties, but President 538 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: Trump is publicly backing Waltz Pete Hegseth the rest of 539 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: his cabinet, and evidence of a setup by someone in 540 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: Mike Waltz's office is seeming pretty large right now, Hey, 541 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 1: so much for Boston Mayor Michelle Woo's defiant sanctuary city promises. 542 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: ICE has just wrapped up an extensive sweep of Beantown 543 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: with a major number of arrests. Sanctuary cities are o 544 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: for the last three thousand years. By the way, and 545 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: you won't see this on the mainstream media. Several protests 546 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: across Gaza against Hamas have broken out. You better believe 547 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: the terror group is on its last legs for that 548 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: many people to have the guts to speak out against them. 549 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:55,479 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition continues now, Good morning everyone, I'm 550 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: Jake Novic. Thanks for sticking around with us here on 551 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition on this Wednesday, where where we 552 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: are not stealing corvettes, we are not giving people bad 553 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: investment advice, and we are also not telling you to 554 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: go to Wikipedia to get your historical information. This is 555 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: actually a big issue here in America. I'm sorry to 556 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: tell you, because it's a depressing thought. Millions of people 557 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: around the world, not just here in America, actually rely 558 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: on that website to get their information on history. That's 559 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: probably the most frightening part culture, and probably also if 560 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: they're trying to learn how to write, very boring and 561 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: confusing pros. If you don't believe me, go on Wikipedia 562 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: and look at a summary of a movie that you 563 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: like and see if you can follow the plot for 564 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: more than two sentences. They don't know how to write. 565 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: Maybe that's going to save us. But meanwhile, aside from 566 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 1: all that, this is becoming the source of some dangerous 567 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: misinformation about America, our values, and our allies. Joining us 568 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: now to talk about that is investigative journalist Aaron Bandler, 569 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: And Aaron, first, can you tell our viewers, just in 570 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: case they don't know how Wikipedia actually works? Can you 571 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: tell us how the information gets on that website in 572 00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: the first place. 573 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 5: But thank you so much for having me on this morning, Jake. 574 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 5: Wikipedia primarily operates through a process known as consensus. Consensus 575 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 5: is a combination of numbers and the strength of the 576 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 5: arguments presented as they pertain the psyche policy. Numerically speaking, 577 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 5: consensus is usually about a supermajority, usually around two at 578 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 5: least two thirds, not order if it's through or for 579 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 5: a change to be made to an article. And I 580 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 5: have heard various estimates anywhere from like two thirds to 581 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 5: three quarters of the Wikipedia p leadings left and so 582 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 5: that It's like, it's easy to see how how how 583 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 5: biased Wikipedia has become. And Wikipedia editors are always supposed 584 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 5: to summarize what reliable sources say. But the problem is 585 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 5: that is Wikipedia editors have rendered so many right leting 586 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 5: sources unusable and many left leaning sources are usable. And 587 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 5: so that alone creates viz it when writing an article. 588 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: Okay, so people, I mean, did does somebody volunteer to 589 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: send information? And then Wikipedia, he says, looks to see 590 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: what two thirds or three quarters of the people say. Uh, 591 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: but after they filter out the people who they say 592 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: aren't reliable. Is that how it works? I mean? So 593 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: in other words, if I'm an organization, let's say I'm 594 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: an NGO or one of these left wing organizations or 595 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: right wing organization, and I get a bunch of my 596 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: people or friends to submit stuff, is that is that 597 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: how how it can be gamed? 598 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 3: Is that? 599 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: Is that how someone could like get information on Wikipedia 600 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: that otherwise wouldn't be there. 601 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 5: Well theoretically yes, but that that kind of activity is 602 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 5: actually banned Wikipedia. Wikipedia policy prohibits people from telling others 603 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 5: what to edit. Wikipedia' is supposed to be completely organic 604 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 5: and volunteer driven, so so how it usually works. If 605 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 5: someone will just make a change to an article, and 606 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 5: if no one disputes it, it's presumed to have consensus. 607 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 5: But if someone does dispute it, then people are supposed 608 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 5: to work out the differences on what's done as a 609 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 5: talk page of Wikipedia article. Every Wikipedia article has a 610 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 5: talk page, and so editors there are supposed to work 611 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 5: out the difference is collegially. Sometimes whether there's a salemate, 612 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 5: they'll have these formal discussions where editors will put in 613 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 5: their stated position, and there's a stated position and their 614 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 5: arguments to back it up in and reference cite policy 615 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 5: as to why the article should read a certain way. 616 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 5: What will happen then is that what's as a closer 617 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 5: meaning it uninvolved Wikipedia and good standing will render or 618 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 5: verdicts all the discussion based on the numbers and the 619 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 5: strength of the arguments presented. 620 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, one of the things that scares me 621 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: is that, you know, listen, I don't care if it's 622 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: a far left organization that's writing something about history or 623 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: something going on in politics or even science. If they 624 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: have the name of the person who wrote it on there, 625 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: at least I can say they're standing up to it. 626 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: That's another thing about Wikipedia, you know, I don't get 627 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: to see the name of the person who may have 628 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: put that information in there, or the names. Now, Aaron, 629 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: you have done several pieces over the months about how 630 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: Wikipedia has especially been biased against the truth about Israel 631 00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 1: and Zionism. This is one of your latest pieces on this. 632 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: Can you briefly tell us how Wikipedia is blocking fairness 633 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: on this very volatile issue. People getting radicalized over this stuff. 634 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: So this is serious, right. 635 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 5: So with that article you mentioned there, there is a 636 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 5: sentence in the lead of the Wikipedia page and Zionists, 637 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 5: and that states that the Zionists wanted as much land 638 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,280 Speaker 5: as many Jews and it's few Palastini Arabs as possible 639 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 5: in Palestine. Now, this is false, as I've actually in 640 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 5: my coverage, I've quoted a sophomore Morowski, who is a 641 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 5: Middle East historian, saying how the early zion Is there 642 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 5: are a bunch of correspondents showing that they sot coexistence 643 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,959 Speaker 5: with the Arabs in the land, and that today's Arab 644 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 5: Israelis they became naturalized as a result of that earlier 645 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 5: desire for coexistence. So that's why that sentence is false. 646 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 5: The problem is that that's what this start and there 647 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 5: to begin with, because a bunch of anti issue editors 648 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 5: cherry picked anti Israel academics the site for that line 649 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 5: that they also selected to quoted Benny Morris, and they 650 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 5: had the numbers in place to keep that line in 651 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 5: place into the article. And what end up happening is 652 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 5: that is that because they're able to continue to stone 653 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 5: wall so efforts to try and change that line eventually 654 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 5: that they they eventually they were able to put a 655 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 5: moratorium in place to stop it, to stop it from 656 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 5: being discussed altogether for the next year. And so because 657 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 5: it can't be discussed for next year, it effectively locks 658 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 5: that sentence into place for about another year. And it's 659 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 5: in the leader of the article. Most Wikipedia readers don't 660 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 5: read beyond the lead, and editors all know this, and 661 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 5: so that's and so that's why it's so it's it's 662 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 5: so horrifying, really, what such a blaty piece of misinformation 663 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 5: is there in the lead for everyone to see and 664 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 5: the average person might not know better. 665 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is like having racist or bigoted graffiti on 666 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 1: a building and the people telling you we have to 667 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:00,839 Speaker 1: leave it up there for you year before you can 668 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: erase it. I mean, it's just it's really incredible. All right, Eron, 669 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,879 Speaker 1: I'm going to a full disclosure here. I checked out 670 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: some of your social media posts and I liked one 671 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: of some of the things that you posted there, and 672 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you just a little bit 673 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: about them. Yeah, you had something posted about these so 674 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 1: called journalists who are really terror organization members who are 675 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: getting either honored or accepted by the broader news media. 676 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: This X post is about one such Emmy winner, an 677 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: Emmy winning journalist who has ties to the terror group PFLP. Aaron, 678 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: you know, let's brainstorm here for a second. How can 679 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: we get the truth about these enemy combatants who are 680 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 1: disguising themselves as journalists. How can we get that out 681 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: other than doing what we're doing right now. I mean, 682 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 1: is there another way to do this, or you know, 683 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: maybe that's an article for you to write in the 684 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: future about all the people who are masquerading as journalists. 685 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 5: That's a great question, and I think the best way 686 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 5: really is social media. Elon Musk likes to say that 687 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 5: we are the media now on X and we're seeing 688 00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 5: more and more of these kinds of things, these stories 689 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 5: broken on X and they're getting a lot of traction 690 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 5: on there, and I think I think that's really the 691 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 5: way I go about it is to try and get 692 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 5: it out there on social media as much as possible 693 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,840 Speaker 5: and try to force and shame the mainstream media into 694 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 5: covering it. And the Mastian media covers it enough, then 695 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 5: maybe it can make it so a Wikipedia as well. 696 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think social media is to me just like guns. 697 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 1: You know, it can be used for good, it can 698 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: be used for bad. That's why they're trying to take 699 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,240 Speaker 1: the right to use it away in places like Europe, 700 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 1: where they also took away their right to have a firearm. 701 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: Things like that. These can be good, use for good, 702 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 1: and it could be used for bad. It's up to you. 703 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: But to take away the option altogether is more scary 704 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: to me than other I don't want to see. For example, 705 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of hate crime laws. If you've 706 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: graffiti a building or punch someone in the face, you 707 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 1: should be prosecuted for destroying property and for assaulting someone, 708 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: doesn't matter who the victim was, doesn't matter who the 709 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: perpetrator was, and the punishment for both of those things 710 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 1: should be severe, no matter again, who the vict was, 711 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:04,200 Speaker 1: and the prosecutors actually have to prosecute you and not 712 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: leave you out in the cold. Now, Aaron, something else 713 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: that a lot of people are been talking about, not 714 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: enough in the mainstream news media, but you and I 715 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,360 Speaker 1: are going to talk about it. Are these major, major 716 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: protests that broke out yesterday in many parts of Gaza 717 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: against Comas. Some of the chants were we're starving. Some 718 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: of the chants where we've had it with Caamas that 719 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: was worth some of the chants. Now, look, I'm not 720 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 1: going to be naive here. I think that some of 721 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: these protests were probably coordinated by Comas's mortal internal enemy 722 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 1: in the Palestinian territories, the Palestinian authority. But however, to 723 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 1: get all those people to come out in March, that 724 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: means that they really, I think, did have some real 725 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 1: sentiment here. This looked like some pretty organic anger here, 726 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: and these people most importantly had to have the guts 727 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 1: to come out in public and hold these signs against 728 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: Lamas and talk to news reporters on TV. Sometimes they 729 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 1: didn't give their full names. I don't begrudge them that. 730 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: Now Comas has got to be on its last legs. 731 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,240 Speaker 1: You see this and most importantly Aaron. For people watching 732 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 1: here in the United States, we both know there aren't 733 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: going to be any students who say they love Palestine 734 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: on all the campuses even caring a minute about these protests. 735 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: In fact, their handlers from Hamas on these campuses probably 736 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: won't even tell them about it. But my question to 737 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: you is are you as encouraged as I am by 738 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: what we're looking at on the screen right now? I am. 739 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 5: I really do have some hope here, and it just 740 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 5: goes to show how the people of Gaza are really 741 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 5: getting fed up with Hamas. Hamas has ruled Jazzo with 742 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 5: iron fists for years and they live like kings and 743 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 5: their leaders, especially like Kings and Qatar. Other people of 744 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 5: Gaza have suffered these anti Israel protesters on college campuses 745 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 5: and so forth. They try to blame like the so 746 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 5: called is really occupation of Gaza for this, even though 747 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 5: Israel with feure from Gaza in two thousand and five. 748 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 5: They also like to blame the block came, but really 749 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 5: Hamas has caused them to suffer and each each and 750 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 5: every death the end Gazza has happened a result of 751 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 5: this war is on Hamas because they launched because they 752 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:09,240 Speaker 5: launched this war on October seventh, and so the people 753 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 5: of Gods that have had enough. And I really hope 754 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 5: this is the beginning of the end for Hamas. And 755 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 5: what will be even better is that these protesters if 756 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 5: they also said that they that Israel has a right 757 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 5: to exist and that they want peace with Israel. And 758 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 5: if that's the case, then maybe we really can't see 759 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 5: peace from the Middle East in our lifetime. 760 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. This is why I tell everyone in the news 761 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: media who's at least trying to be honest, do not 762 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 1: call the protesters here in the United States pro Palestinian. 763 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 1: They have no interest in the Palestinian people. They don't 764 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: even know what Palestine is on a map, because it 765 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 1: doesn't exist on a map. They're just hateful of Israel. 766 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 1: And that is why you're not going to see anyone 767 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: on campus today or tomorrow speaking up for those Palestinians 768 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: that you saw in the video speaking out against Kamas. 769 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 1: Aaron Bandler, Investigative Journalists, thank you so much for joining us. 770 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: We're going to talk more about this Wikipedia scandal as 771 00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,839 Speaker 1: we go on. I know it's frust but we must 772 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: must get to the bottom of this there are millions 773 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: of people around the world who actually think this is 774 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,399 Speaker 1: actual facts and how they can learn history. It's only Wednesday, Aaron, 775 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 1: but have a good weekend. I'm going to wish you 776 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: that right now. Thanks for me on Jay. All right, 777 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: coming up, I really hope you're not looking to politicians 778 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,479 Speaker 1: and politics for civility and decency. I really hope you aren't, 779 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 1: because that's not where you should look. But I especially 780 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: hope you're not looking to get it from Jasmine Crockett. 781 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 1: David Brody and I will break down her latest verbal 782 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 1: grenade launch when American Sunrise Early Edition comes right back. 783 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 1: Good morning. That's a live shot of Saint Paul, Minnesota. 784 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: It's still probably bitterly cold there. Saint Paul, Minnesota. You 785 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: can go months and months and months without ever going outside. 786 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 1: They have all these underground garages and tunnels. Even before 787 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: electric cars and places like that. You even if you 788 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: have a garage, you have to you plug in your 789 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: car so it doesn't freeze up overnight. Folks in this 790 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: part of the country know what I'm talking about. That 791 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 1: is a beautiful shot. Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. 792 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm Jake Novak, David Brody is joining me. But before 793 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: we talk about what we're gonna talk about, you gott 794 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: to look at the evidence. Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, she's from Texas. 795 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: She's been making outrageous comments all the time, but this 796 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: time I think we have to talk about it. I 797 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 1: usually like to ignore it, but this time I think 798 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: it's important for us to talk about it because there's 799 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: a wider lesson here. Check out what she had to 800 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,320 Speaker 1: say about Texas Governor Greg abba just the other night. Listen. 801 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:55,839 Speaker 4: And because we in these hot Texas streets, honey, y'all 802 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:56,959 Speaker 4: know we got governor hot. 803 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: Wheels down there. 804 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 5: Come on now, and the only thing hot about him 805 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 5: is that he is a hot access honey. 806 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: So yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes to what 807 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm not really sure of course, for those of you 808 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: who don't know, Texas Governor Greg Abbott, Republican, has been 809 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 1: wheelchair I don't think they like that term wheelchair bound, 810 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: but he uses a wheelchair ever since an accident that 811 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 1: left him paralyzed. David, Look, the point I want to 812 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: make here is like, look, obviously, you have outrageous comments 813 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: that are made by politicians from all stripes. What I 814 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 1: want to talk to you about. Here is the idea 815 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 1: that people are looking for decency and civility from politicians 816 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: in the first place, I'm not excusing them, but is 817 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 1: that really the place to look? Now? That is the 818 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 1: rhetorical of all rhetorical questions, Jake no Rack. 819 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 6: So my answer is shockingly going to be no, of 820 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:57,440 Speaker 6: course not no. 821 00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 1: Look. 822 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 6: I mean, I think it really gets back to what 823 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 6: Alexis to Tokeville would say back in the day in 824 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,439 Speaker 6: the eighteen hundreds when the Frenchmen came to the United 825 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 6: States and looked around our communities and said, that's what 826 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 6: I love about America, that it's all about the community. 827 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 6: And how do I say, there's kind of people helping people, 828 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,879 Speaker 6: or as Hillary Clinton might say, it takes a village. Well, 829 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 6: that's a whole separate issue because her village is the government. 830 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 6: But the point is is that it is all about 831 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 6: public service and folks that are just going to go 832 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 6: to Congress or they're going to go wherever they're going 833 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 6: to go in politics, do it for a little while 834 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 6: and then come back and be a farmer or be 835 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 6: a banker, be a whatever you need to be. Basically, 836 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 6: we know it's a cottage industry. 837 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 1: And not only that, but it's all about power, right. 838 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 6: I mean, the longer you are here in the Deep State, 839 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 6: the stinkier of the water is the smellier of the 840 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 6: Potomac is And because. 841 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 1: Of that, it's just all about power. 842 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 6: So no, we shouldn't be looking to folks here in 843 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 6: Washington for any sort of moral leadership. There are a few, 844 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:00,719 Speaker 6: of course, at times, but you know that doesn't shock 845 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 6: me at all. 846 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, look, carbon Klausevich said that war is 847 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 1: politics by another means, and then Lynda B. Johnson, fifty 848 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 1: sixty years before people think things have gotten really crazy 849 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,319 Speaker 1: in America, said no, politics is war too. And the 850 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,279 Speaker 1: idea that you're going to look at enemy combatants who 851 00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: are fighting war, even in the good old days of 852 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 1: the sixties and fifties, and think that they're going to 853 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: be well behaved is really really crazy. But you know, 854 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: I have to bring up some examples of people who've 855 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 1: decided to go the other route to say that they 856 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 1: are the paragons of some kind of virtue. You might 857 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,800 Speaker 1: remember Senator Ben Sass who then eventually became the president 858 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: of the University of Florida, who said he left politics 859 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: because it was too nasty, wrote a book about how 860 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 1: people should act like adults, and then it turns out 861 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: he wasn't exactly the most ethical guy running the University 862 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 1: of Florida putting his friends and cronies in for once 863 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,720 Speaker 1: a week zoom video classes for six and seven, you know, major, 864 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: major salaries. So I'm sorry. You know, look, if you're 865 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 1: looking for virtue, if you do you want lift service 866 00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 1: or do you want people who are actually going to 867 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: do something good for you, because sometimes those are two 868 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 1: different things. 869 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 6: Hypocrisy is a very known commodity commodity here in Washington, DC, 870 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 6: and by the way, as it relates to Jasmine Crockett, 871 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,240 Speaker 6: look give me a break. Of course you knew exactly 872 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 6: what she was saying. I mean this idea that you know, 873 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 6: Oh I didn't. Now she's kind of you know, dial 874 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 6: on the back. I didn't really mean that. No, of 875 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 6: course you meant that, you know what, own your insult. 876 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 6: Look with Donald Trump, at least he owns it. 877 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: He owns it. 878 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 6: If he's gonna do it, He's like, yeah, that's right, 879 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 6: I said it. 880 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: You're gonna do something about it? What it's true? 881 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 6: You know what, I'd rather just do that, even though 882 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 6: it's reprehensible. And by the way, when an oak tree 883 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,839 Speaker 6: fell on Governor Abbott's back at the time, twenty six 884 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,959 Speaker 6: year old Greg Abbott back, I don't think the hot 885 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 6: wheels comment would necessarily go down particularly well when he 886 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 6: was when he had to deal with that many many 887 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 6: years ago. 888 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's not funny. All right, Well, what is 889 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: good is that you got American sunrise coming up the 890 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,840 Speaker 1: next two hours. I'm Jake Novak. I will see you tomorrow. 891 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you so much for joining me.
