It's all you've 7 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: heard on the radio, it's all you've seen on TV. 8 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy fails on the first ballot. Oh my gosh, 9 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,559 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen? Are the Democrats gonna I feel like 10 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: I'm alone right now. Maybe I'm not. Maybe you're with me, 11 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: but I feel like I'm alone right now, and saying 12 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:47,959 Speaker 1: I don't care. Why should I care? Someone give me 13 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: a reason to care now, Maybe you should say. Maybe 14 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: you're sitting there saying, well, Jesse, you crazy. The Democrats 15 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: and they're gonna spend if we give it to them, 16 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: they canna spend all kinds of money. The Democrats are 17 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna fund the LGBTQ in sanity. They're gonna 18 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: pass gun control. What do you mean you don't care? Fifteen? 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: I don't even have enough fingers fifteen there's ten, there's 20 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: another five. That's how many Republican senators joined with the 21 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: Democrats to pass a gun control bill. And I was 22 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: like fifteen minutes ago. And you probably remember just before 23 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 1: Christmas eighteen, even more than gun control eighteen Republican senators 24 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: joined with the Democrats to pass. I mean, I don't 25 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: even have enough time in the show to go through 26 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: all the crap, all the LGBTQ insanity, not securing the border, 27 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: funding the IRS, increasing funding to the DOJ, in the FBI. 28 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: It would take it would take an entire show to 29 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: go through all of it. So it's it's not that 30 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: I'm in the in the tank one way for let's 31 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: get McCarthy in there. Let's not get McCarthy in there. 32 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: I really, I'm completely indifferent to the whole thing. I 33 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: don't care. Why should I care? You know what, I'll 34 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: start to care. Here's what I'll start to care. I 35 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 1: will start to care the second we get a political 36 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: party in this country that stands up for me and 37 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: my values. The second we do, man, I'm in there 38 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: tooth and nail. Count me in. I am your fighter 39 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: until that day comes. I don't care. Do I need 40 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: to remind you how many trillion dollars or close to 41 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: trillion dollar bills sailed right through a Republican House. Tons 42 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: of them all the time. But I don't care. Here's 43 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: what I do care about. I care about saving the country, 44 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: and I understand that saving the country will not come 45 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: from Washington, d C. There are two els that are 46 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: going to save this country. Legal and local. Legal and local. 47 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: That is our path to saving the country. It's not 48 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: going to come from Washington, d C. And it's not 49 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: going to become not going to come from taking up 50 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: arms and fighting some stupid civil war that kills about 51 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: ten million Americans. No, legal and local, that is how 52 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: we will save the United States of America. So you 53 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: know what I care about a lot more than who's 54 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House came Jeffreys, Kevin McCarthy, Bozo the clown. 55 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: You know what I care about. I care about a 56 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: school board. Southern California's school board. People got it done, 57 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: went out ran for school board, people who had never 58 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: run before, took back the school board from the communists 59 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 1: who were destroying their children, and promptly banned critical race theory. 60 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: That's the win I care about. Those are the winds 61 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: that will save the United States of America, not the 62 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. And don't get me wrong. While 63 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: I applaud the local school board race in California and 64 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: I think that's great, I'm still here telling you and 65 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: will continue to tell you every single day to move. 66 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: And this is why you know you've heard me say 67 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: it a million times at COVID. During COVID, that was 68 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: the great sorting. I call it the great sorting for people. 69 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: You found out during COVID, during the height of all 70 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: that insanity. You found out the people in your life 71 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: who you can trust and who you can And that 72 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: was a painful revealing process for many people. Right that 73 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: guy you worked with you thought was great, how a 74 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: beer with them on Fridays tend to do a nut 75 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: job screaming at you. Pull your mask up. Hey, you 76 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: can't trust that guy. Friends, relatives. I have story after 77 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: story on my email inbox. Moms, dad's son's, daughters, sisters, brothers, 78 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: cousins turned into nut jobs. You can't trust that guy. 79 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: You don't have to stop loving. I'm not telling you that, 80 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: but that person is forever to be not trusted now 81 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: you found out who they were That was the great 82 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: sorting for people. But there was another great sorting that 83 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: took place in the last couple of years. We talked 84 00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 1: about this before too, the midterm elections in twenty twenty two. No, 85 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: they didn't go exactly the way way way we wanted. 86 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 1: Now that did COVID. It didn't go the way we wanted. 87 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: We turned into a lockdown disaster. But there were still 88 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: great benefits we can take from it. You see, the 89 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: great sorting for people is not a negative. It's a benefit. 90 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: I want to know if I can or can't trust 91 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: my sister. It turns out I can, but I would 92 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: want to know if I couldn't. The great sorting for 93 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two after the midterms was the great sorting 94 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: for your area. It wasn't a people sorting, It was 95 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: an area sorting. Is your state salvageable or is your 96 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: state something that should be abandoned so you can go 97 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: be free and your children can be free after you, 98 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: and they are children after them. Michigan, Michigan's gone. After 99 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: two straight years of horrific lockdowns. They went out and 100 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: revoted that hag governor in and also gave Democrats supermajorities 101 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: in the state House State Senate. Michigan's gone. I love Michigan, 102 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: beautiful state. You should move if you live there. It's gone. 103 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: You cannot be recovered. California. Want to hear about some 104 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: of the things California's past. It's a sanctuary state officially 105 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: for transgender kids, by and I quote protecting the use 106 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: of drugs or surgery to provide gender affirming care. By 107 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: the way, that gender affirming care. Always keep in mind 108 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: whenever they use that term, they're talking about your sun 109 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: chopping as a penis off and your daughter chopping off 110 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,679 Speaker 1: for breasts as a teenager. That's what they're talking about. 111 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: Just so you know, not to put too fine a 112 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: point on it. Another law allows the state to take 113 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: action against doctors who dissent from the COVID narrative, Meaning 114 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: if your doctor decides that, say something like ivermectin is 115 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: beneficial to you and may help you, it's now against 116 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: the law. The state can go against them. In California, 117 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: jaywalking's decriminalized because of racism. I surrown my life. I'm 118 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: not making that up. Loitering for prostitution has been decriminalized, 119 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: and nurses are now allowed to murder unborn babies without 120 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,239 Speaker 1: the doctor in the room. So allow me to ask 121 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: you something. Why are you staying there? Why are you 122 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: staying in New York? And I know there are are 123 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: you probably have answers. Maybe you're answering the TV right now. 124 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: Maybe you're saying, Jesse, my mom lives here and I'm 125 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: taking care of her. Man. I get that. I get that. 126 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: Maybe you're saying, Jesse, I'm at a job. I'm two 127 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: years from retirement. I can't leave. I get that. I 128 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: understand there are reasons why people can't go. You're never 129 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: going to get any judgment out of me. But if 130 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: maybe you can go, and you understand that this only 131 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: continues to go this way. Right as the Red States 132 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: start to become thank you Lord, more and more anti communist, 133 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: and the Blue States become more communist, you understand that 134 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: life only gets worse in the Blue States, and the 135 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: Red States will be the place where your family can 136 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: be free. Look, and here's something else. Maybe you're sitting 137 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: there saying, Jesse, I don't like that strategy. Jesse. I 138 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: hate when you talk like this. Jesse. We can't just bail. Okay, Well, 139 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: let's let's just say I give you that argument. Okay, 140 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. It doesn't matter that you feel 141 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: that way and I feel this way. It really it's 142 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: not significant. It doesn't even matter which one of us 143 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: is right, in which one of us is wrong. People 144 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: are people are already going, They're already leaving. You see, 145 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: California in New York led the United States of America 146 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: in people leaving. Whether or not you purchoose, whether or 147 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: not you choose to participate in the blue state exodus, 148 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: you should understand full well it's happening no matter what Blue. 149 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: People are moving to blue as red states passed these 150 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 1: anti abortion laws and whatnot, as they should. People are 151 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: moving to red when they want to live under those values. 152 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 1: Shoot and credit to the communist governor Kathy Hooks. Tell 153 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 1: people to get out, and we're here to say that 154 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: the era of Trump and Zelden and moll and Arrow. 155 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: Just jump on a bus and head down to Florida, 156 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: where you along. You don't represent our values. You are 157 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: not New Yorkers. Man. I can't believe I'm saying this. 158 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: I totally support and agree with Kathy Hogel. If you're 159 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: a big Trump supporter, get out. You don't represent the 160 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: values of New York. New York has different values than you. 161 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: You should leave. Here's an idea where you should go. Oh, 162 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: I don't know a state that's run by this guy. 163 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: Freedom lives here in our great sunshine state of Florida. 164 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: We reject this woke ideology. We seek normalcy, not philosophical lunacy. 165 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: We will not allow reality, facts and truth to become optional. 166 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 1: We will never surrender to the woke mob.

I visited Riker's Island 239 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: more than any mayor and probably in the history of 240 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: this city talking to inmate's correction officers. And so you 241 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: see my prevention plan to stop the pipeline, and you 242 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: see my intervention plans to go after those dangerous individuals 243 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: in our city. I love this guy. I love this guy. 244 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: I want to be a politician. It's just gotta be 245 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: hilarious to lie like that. Joining me now, my friend 246 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: Dave Marcus, obviously columnists with Fox News Daily, Why or 247 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: Daily may always an author? You know, we love Dave 248 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: here on the show. Dave, all right, you're a New Yorker. 249 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: I should say you used to be, but you are 250 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: really a born in bred New Yorker. You're the most 251 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: New York loving guy. I know. How's Eric Adams done 252 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: on crime up there? Dave? You know, I'm glad to 253 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: share that Eric Adams is visiting Riker's Island, which is 254 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: the jail all there because criminals aren't, right, you know, 255 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: at least he's there. The criminals aren't because we you know, 256 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: there's this I said, we uh, New York has this 257 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: these bare bail reform laws, um that really just turned 258 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: the system into a turnstyle. So even people who are 259 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: arrested for very violent offenses, they wind up just right 260 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: back on the street, over and over and over again. 261 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: I mean we just saw, you know, Robert de Niro's 262 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: house was burglarized by somebody who had twenty thirty of 263 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: these arrests. So whatever Eric Adams is or isn't doing, 264 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: you know, besides partying all night, apparently it's not working. Okay, 265 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: Is he popular there? Dave? We're gonna move off this 266 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: here in just a second. But I'm always curious about 267 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: that because New York City is a different kind of 268 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: a place. They'll love a mayor that America. Hey, how 269 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: what's the thoughts on him there? Yeah, I don't think 270 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: that he's enormously popular. I think he's more popular than 271 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: than Build A Blasio was, but I mean, holler, more 272 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: popular than than building. I mean it's a you know, 273 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: he hasn't gotten the job done, and it's been frustrating 274 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: because some things have gotten better, right, I mean, there 275 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: had been just like blatant selling of marijuana and other drugs, 276 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: like right out on the sidewalks. That's not happening anymore, 277 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: but it is happening in the bodegas. It is happening 278 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: in the stores. So he clearly hasn't established law and 279 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: order in the way that he promised to um And 280 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: I think people are still hopeful, but but they're losing 281 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: a bit of faith. Dave, you moved. Now, we're not 282 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: going to go into all the reasons and things like that, 283 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: but you moved. You're the most New York guy ever 284 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: and you packed it up and you moved to West Virginia, 285 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: which is just a little bit different than New York City. 286 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: Be honest with me, I don't care if it's bad. 287 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: How are you surviving? Brother, Oh it's great, No, it's 288 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: it's it's I really like it. I mean I can't 289 00:16:55,200 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: my cigarettes are so cheap. But you know, the people 290 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: are lovely. You know. I got to get my car 291 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: situation sorted because it's you know, not a walking state. 292 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: But no, it's great. You know, I wanted to change. 293 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: This wasn't about politics. It was more sort of personal 294 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: and you know, a different experience for my kid and 295 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: stuff like that. But and professionally, the last few years, 296 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: I've spent a lot of time around the country talking 297 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 1: to New Yorkers, talking to Americans, sorry, outside of New 298 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: York and Washington, DC, And I find hearing their stories 299 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: and being able to tell their stories amazingly fulfilling because 300 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: they're not told enough. And that's kind of what I 301 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: want to soak in here and incorporate into my work. 302 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: I love it all right. California, California just passed five 303 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: new laws. They're all horrible. It's not just New York 304 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 1: that's going the wrong way. California. It seems to be 305 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: going the wrong way faster than even New York. Is 306 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: what's going on. I mean, it's it's unbelievable that, you know, 307 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: probably the most controversial one is this sanctuary state for 308 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: transgender kids, where you know, you have states that are 309 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: having very serious conversations right now, states like like Florida 310 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: and Texas and other places about whether it makes sense 311 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: to allow young children to have these procedures, many of 312 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: which are irreversible because they think that they're a different gender. 313 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: Now you and I both clearly have a stance, which 314 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 1: is that that this is completely crazy. The California has 315 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: decided to go all in, not just for its own citizens, 316 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: but for the whole country. And you know, it's terrifying. 317 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you have situations where, like you know, there's 318 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,959 Speaker 1: dads or moms where the other parent is doing this 319 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 1: and they can't stop it. I mean, it's it's really 320 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: scary stuff, Dave. Conservatives must embrace the progressive strategy of 321 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: losing to win. This is your headline, what are you 322 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: talking about? Well, you know, I think that the best 323 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: that we were all disappointed by the mid terms, and 324 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people thought like, oh, well, 325 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: we should have gone more to the center, or stop 326 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: talking about abortion, or you know, stop talking, you know 327 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: about Trump or whatever it was. But losing in politics 328 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: has its own kind of power. And I'll give you 329 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: an example. The best example is Barack Obama. Between two 330 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 1: thousand and eight and two thousand and sixteen, while he 331 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 1: was president, the Democrats lost I believe, eleven Senate seats, 332 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: sixty two House seats, and almost a thousand seats in 333 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: the state legislature. But what else happened in two thousand 334 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 1: and eight when Barack Obama ran for president, he ran 335 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: against gay marriage, right. He ran That's a position that 336 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: no Democrat in the world has any more. And that's 337 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 1: less than twenty years ago. In two thousand and eight, 338 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: the Democrats position on abortion was safe, legal, and rare. 339 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: Now they throw abortion parties and think that it should 340 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: be on demand. Right up until the time of birth, 341 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: maybe even after. So through losing, he was able to 342 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: move the Overton window of the of the Democrat Party 343 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: so far that we can't even recognize it anymore. So 344 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: I think conservatives in the Republican Party need to look 345 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 1: at that example and say, sometimes it's okay to lose 346 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 1: if in fact you're moving that window in your direction 347 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: in the broader conversation. All right, let's talk about something 348 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: that is uncomfortable. So I'm going to do something very 349 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: very rare for me, as you know, and I'm gonna 350 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: be careful with my words. Virtually everybody either saw the 351 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: video or has heard about that horrific incident in the 352 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: NFL last night. I don't watch it. I did see 353 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: a little pip of the video, and all I want 354 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: to say is we just want to pray for that 355 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: person's family going through all this right now, I really 356 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: I'm not focusing on that part of it. The part 357 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: I'm focusing on is this, Dave. People are getting angry 358 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: today because a bunch of people who are a hardcore 359 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: anti vaccine as as I pretty much am, but a 360 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: bunch of people who are a hardcore anti vaccine are 361 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: coming out and immediately blaming the vaccine, which we don't know. Yeah, 362 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 1: we obviously don't know that. But what I've told people is, 363 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: how are you surprised that this is the reaction from 364 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: people when forever you beat these people over the face, 365 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: you lie to them over and over again about everything, 366 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: and then you beat these people over the face every 367 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: time an unvaccinated person died from COVID, every time Dick 368 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: and Harry couldn't wait to go to social media. Look 369 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: at this stupid idiot, Hey got what he had come 370 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: into him, and now you're complaining that this is coming 371 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: back your way. How do these people not see that 372 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 1: Societies respond, Society seeks a balance. This was inevitable. Yeah, 373 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 1: I look, I think that's completely fair. And I'm with you. 374 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: I don't know what caused this. I'm not a doctor, right, 375 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 1: that was pretty much my position throughout COVID. Right, you're 376 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: you're sort of balancing, you know, things, unintended consequences, like 377 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: all kinds of different stuff. But you're right. I mean, 378 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: the number of lies that we've been told in regard 379 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 1: to COVID, and in regard to the vaccines, and in 380 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: regard to the boosters, can't be surprised when people are 381 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: suspicious about this stuff because people don't trust the information 382 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: that they're getting and they don't have a good reason too. 383 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: And that's that's a huge that's really a huge problem. 384 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: And the way to fix it is not with disinformation boards. 385 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: I mean, that just makes it worse because that disinformation 386 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: boards are lying to us. Dave, you're the best, my man. 387 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: Enjoy West Virginia if you've not done so yet, which 388 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: you probably already have.

I am judging you then, 419 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: but your personal decisions, I don't judge you for that. 420 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: I get people emailing me all the time. Jesse, I 421 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: took the vaccine. I'm so mad at myself, Jesse. I'm 422 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: mad at my employer for making me do it. Jesse, 423 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: I took it. I regreted, Jesse, Jesse, I did that. Whoa, whoa, whoa. 424 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: You were a victim of the most massive propaganda campaign 425 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 1: in the history of mankind. There's never been anything like it. 426 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: It was hard to withstand that. And maybe you were forced. 427 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: You got a family to feed, but mortgage to pay. 428 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 1: Maybe you did have to do it. You're not hearing 429 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: any judgment from me, but can we finally stop with 430 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: this absurd belief out there that it works? Okay? I 431 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: gave it plenty of time, and you remember when it 432 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: first came out. I wasn't anti. I was let's just wait. 433 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait. I'm gonna wait and see does it work? 434 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: Doesn't it work? It's new. They rushed through the trials. 435 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: I want to wait and see. Well, it's January third, 436 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: said gosh, is it already January third? Man? It is, 437 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: it's January third, twenty twenty three. The years flying by. Okay, 438 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: it doesn't work. There's a reason these people who've had three, 439 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: four shots, five shots keep getting COVID time after time. 440 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: Is the shot giving it to them? I don't know. 441 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: I can't say that. I don't know, but it's clearly 442 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: not keeping them from getting it. And this is something 443 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: that anyone with eyes and ears now can observe for themselves. 444 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: It's not difficult. And it's so bizarre that the normal 445 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: person like you, whether you took it, didn't whatever, the 446 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: normal person, they know that. Now you're looking out there, 447 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 1: you see that. It's very obvious. And yet the elites 448 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: of this country are so lost, so stupid, so corrupt, 449 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: so out of touch, that they're still out there acting 450 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: like it works. Here's President Biden, also known as Joe Biden, 451 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: and especially take care of your health this year. Go 452 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 1: get that COVID vaccine and get your flu shot. Well, 453 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 1: we are looking forward to a big celebration tonight. Thank 454 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 1: you very much for being with a happy new year. 455 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 1: And who to all Americans, it doesn't work? What is 456 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: What is the reason? Then? Have you ever ask yourself that? 457 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: Because that's almost always the question you want to ask. Okay, 458 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: doesn't work, we know it doesn't work. Why the push still? Well? 459 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 1: I think if you do a little research and you 460 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: look at the industries. It's been the most money lobbying 461 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: the federal government. I think that's exactly where you will 462 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: find your answer on why they're still pushing it. And 463 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: here I have a hint for you. You're ready for this. 464 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: It's not about your health, all right. Look, there's probably 465 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 1: no bigger piece of trash on the face of the 466 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: planet than doctor Zeke Emmanuel, who's just a world class 467 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: piece of garbage on record is saying old people need 468 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: to die and things like that. So this is not 469 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: a good person. Even Zeke Emmanuels out there saying, oh, 470 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: it's not working. Unfortunately, the antibodies therefore a week half 471 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: from infection or vaccines don't seem to work individually for 472 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: your viewers, Andrea. The best thing they can do at 473 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: the moment, and I know a lot of them are 474 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: resistant is masks and ninety five really high quality mask. Okay, 475 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: so he's half right. They don't seem to work. It 476 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: don't work. It doesn't work at all. But a lot 477 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: of this is this too. We no longer have and 478 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: you know this because you watch the show. We no 479 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 1: longer have institutions that can be trusted anymore. They're all corrupted. 480 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: They're all corrupted by the same ideology, and so none 481 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: of it, none of it is designed to do what 482 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 1: it's intended to do. At the vaccine, it's not supposed 483 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: to stop coronavirus. It's supposed to make big pharma and 484 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: the government a bunch of money. It's it's not intended 485 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: to stop it. The Energy Secretary right now, Jennifer Granholm, 486 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: she's dedicated herself to destroying energy. It's not out there 487 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: to help it, Energy out to destroy it. That's how 488 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: corrupt and terrible and twisted we are. Right now. The 489 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: Center for Disease Control, the Center for Disease Control, do 490 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: you know what their new big pushes.

The CDC now has LGBTQ inclusity in schools 493 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: as a tool that they use which encourages teachers to 494 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: be gay slash transactivists in school. Your Center for Disease 495 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: Control is now no longer interested in preventing disease treating disease. 496 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no no no no. The Center 497 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: for Disease Control is out there making sure your child 498 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,959 Speaker 1: is a loyal servant to the US of Gay, our 499 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: new country. Maybe you didn't know that's where you live now, 500 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: but you most definitely do. Clown world we live in. 501 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: All right. Finally, let's wrap up with this, and this 502 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: is probably a really really important point. I mentioned the 503 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: US of Gay. You've heard me mentioned it before. It 504 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: is important, no matter how uncomfortable it makes you, that 505 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: you understand you're an outsider. Now you are. Now you're 506 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: not the culture. And we've always called the left counterculture, 507 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: right their counterculture counterculture revolutionists. No, no, no, no, they're 508 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: the culture now. They own it all. They're in the books, 509 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: through in the movies, or in the education system. They're 510 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: in the sports there on the top cars. You don't 511 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: believe me, Take a look at this lovely cop car 512 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: in Miami. It's real. It's really real. They're the cop cars. 513 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: They're the culture. You are the counterculture. That sucks that. 514 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: It also just means this, you have to conduct yourself 515 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: as a counterculture revolutionary wood all right, all right, now, 516 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to be strong for this or we're not. 517 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: We are.

Well, there's something about our economy, and 534 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: you can think it's good or you can think it's bad. 535 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: I guess it's probably a personal opinion, although maybe not. 536 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: Our economy is consumer base. Now. We used to have 537 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: a manufacturing economy. Now we need consumer spending. I think 538 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: that's horrible because it's more based on how people feel. 539 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: But let's see what Carol Roth thinks about it. Let's 540 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: see what consumers are doing. It is a new year. 541 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: After also joining me now our friend who needs no 542 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: more intro on this show, recovering investment banker, author of 543 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: the book The War on Small Business, my friend Kill Roth. 544 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: All right, Carol, we just had Christmas, We just had 545 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: the New Year's, just had Haneka and very Kwanza and 546 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: every other holiday they mix in there. Did we spend 547 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: any money in this country? We did. We love to 548 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: consume in this country. As you mentioned, our economy is 549 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: about seventy percent consumer based, so what the consumer does 550 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: has a big impact on the overall economy. We just 551 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: came out of the retail sales season for all of 552 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: those holidays that you mentioned, and I think the technical 553 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: financial term for how we did is meh m eh men. 554 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: So basically, retail sales increased about seven point six percent, 555 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: which is a little bit less than last year. The 556 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: challenge is, as you can imagine, those numbers are not 557 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: adjusted for inflation, so that means that the consumer had 558 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: to spend more but the actual inflation adjusted impact on 559 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: the economy was about exactly even since last year. The 560 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: big challenge, Jesse, is how the consumer is financing all 561 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: of this, and they are basically financing this by killing 562 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: their own wealth. We had savings for consumers, personal savings 563 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: that peaked in about September of twenty twenty one at 564 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 1: about two point three trillion. That has come down by 565 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: the third quarters, so before the holiday season, through quarter 566 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two was about one and a half trillion. 567 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: And if you ask the heads of the big banks, 568 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: oh wait to get its worst. If you have the 569 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: heads of the big banks and the economists, when that's 570 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: all going to run out, that is going to be 571 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: the middle of this year. So it means that people 572 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: are saving less, they're putting more on their credit cards. 573 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: Credit card debt is nearing a trillion dollars. And because 574 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: people have jobs, and because they have this wealth effect, 575 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: because their housing prices have generally increased over time, it 576 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: means that the consumers are dipping into their own wealth 577 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: to finance keeping the economy afloat, which really takes us 578 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:24,879 Speaker 1: down the path of you owning nothing. Okay, well, this 579 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: is all very cool. This is very scary. We have 580 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: a lot to unpack you. I want to focus on 581 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: something a little bit different first, along these same lines, okay, Carol. 582 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: So this is what I take from that. When I 583 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 1: hear you tell me people are draining their savings, people 584 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: are putting all the money on the credit card. What 585 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:43,320 Speaker 1: I hear is people are worth less because of inflation, 586 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: yet they're trying to maintain the same standard of living 587 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: they had before with less, with their dollar going you know, 588 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: a lot shorter distance than it was before. Do I 589 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: have that about right? You do? And there are a 590 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: couple of reasons for that. One is because the job 591 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: market is still robust. We have the supply demand and 592 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: balance in the jobs market, so more people have jobs 593 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: and their wages are increasing, although it's not keeping pace 594 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 1: with inflation. But if people aren't seeing, oh I'm getting 595 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: laid off and I'm not going to have a job, 596 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,359 Speaker 1: they feel more empowered to spend. And then because their 597 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 1: housing values have increased, they figure, oh, well, maybe I 598 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,240 Speaker 1: can take a home equity line of credit, or maybe 599 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 1: you know, I have more wealth than I think that 600 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: I do. And then they're going in and they're dipping 601 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,240 Speaker 1: in and they're taking on more debt, so they really 602 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: are killing that personal wealth. Like you say, to keep 603 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: up with the Joneses or the Kardashians, or the Fed, 604 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 1: or the government or whoever the heck it is that 605 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: they're keeping up with. But it is all on their 606 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 1: backs and they're feeling like they're going to be okay, 607 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: but really their net worth is going down substantially, and 608 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 1: as I said, you're gonna end up owning nothing. Just 609 00:35:57,880 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: as a quick side note, sorry, ch'all just have to 610 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: get this out there. It feels like an appropriate time 611 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: to tell people. I had a little talk with the 612 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: guy I invest with today everybody, and we had a 613 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,359 Speaker 1: little bit of money set aside out for Christmas who 614 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: wanted to invest as we try to do in our house. 615 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: And we could have picked a savings account or we 616 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 1: could have picked the market. And I said, it's up 617 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 1: to you. What do you think And he said, let's 618 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: stick with the savings account for a few months. So 619 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: just a heads up, everybody, that's the finance advice I'm 620 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: getting from somebody who knows. Just so anyway, Carol, all right, 621 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 1: people are really taking out home equity loans. Yeah, so 622 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: we're starting to see things like that, as we said, 623 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: with a credit card debt. We're approaching a trillion dollars 624 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: in credit card debt, and then we were going to 625 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: start to see more people dipping into their home equity 626 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 1: that they have, you know, kind of a repeat of 627 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 1: some of the bad behaviors of the past because the 628 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: home prices had been inflated so much by all the 629 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: money printing by all the FED and preventioned by bad 630 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 1: government policy. So they feel like, okay, well, this is 631 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: wealth that I've earned and I can use it. But again, 632 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: then you're not building wealth. You're taking that money and 633 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: you're spending it, and then it's gonezo and there's no 634 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: guarantee that the housing prices are going to continue to 635 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 1: move in the same direction. Carol, what should people be 636 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: doing with their money? Because it look, it is a 637 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,479 Speaker 1: difficult thing to go through. It a period of time 638 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: in your life where your standard of living is going down. 639 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 1: I've actually been there before. I've been out of work 640 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: and it sucks. You know. No, we're not going to 641 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: red Lobster this Friday. Actually we're having Graphmack again. It 642 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: is difficult, But what should you do? Well, first of all, 643 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: I want to thank you for your personal sacrifice. I 644 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: know how much Red Lobster means to you, but what 645 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: a good example you're setting for everybody. I'm willing to 646 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,399 Speaker 1: have an us to your life, and I think that's 647 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 1: the reality here. Do not take on more debts to 648 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: cut your expenses, Do not dip into the areas where 649 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: you have built up well and equity. Continue to make investments, 650 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 1: particularly in places where you can get some sort of 651 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,879 Speaker 1: extra bonus for it, Like if you have a four 652 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:13,280 Speaker 1: O one K matching plan from your employer, definitely max 653 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 1: out that out. Even though the market is going to 654 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: be choppy for some period of time, if you have 655 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: your employer matching that, that's going to be a good 656 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,959 Speaker 1: benefit for you. So you need to be doing those 657 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: things and also really be thinking, especially Jesse, on the 658 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 1: trajectory that we've talked about for a while, what's happening 659 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 1: with the money printing in this country. Investing in hard assets, 660 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, whether that may be some land that has 661 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: a productive use, maybe some precious metals like gold, things 662 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 1: that actually have tangible value that you own that you 663 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: can use as a hedge. You know, it doesn't have 664 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: to be your whole portfolio. It can be five or 665 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: ten percent. Talk to a financial advisor to see what 666 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: makes sense for your risk objectives. But have some of 667 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 1: these hard assets as a hedge because as we know, 668 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: there is no fiscal responsibility in this country. It is 669 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: not going to change anytime soon, and you want to 670 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 1: make sure that you've got some preparation for that. So 671 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 1: it's about the austerity, it's you know, investing overspending, and 672 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: it's about creating some hedges. Okay, I think you said 673 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: one thing positive so far, Carol, about housing values. Home values. 674 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 1: Home values are y. Yeah. So even though it may 675 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:32,839 Speaker 1: seem with these crazy mortgages mortgage rates, but we've had 676 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 1: a huge supply demand and balance and housing as well. 677 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 1: There was an overbuilding going up into the Great Recession 678 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:44,280 Speaker 1: financial crisis, but what happened is after that they stopped 679 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: building homes because there was so much supply in the 680 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 1: market at that point in time. So the estimates are 681 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 1: that we're underbuilt by probably four to five million units. 682 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:57,839 Speaker 1: So between that and all of these corporate buyers who 683 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 1: have been fleshed with cash, who have been coming in 684 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,720 Speaker 1: and competing with you as an individual to buy a house, 685 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a floor in terms of 686 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 1: the pricing. So right now, in order for us to 687 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: be like in that same place where we were during 688 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 1: the Great Recession financial crisis with you know, millions of 689 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 1: homes underwater, housing values would have to come down forty 690 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: to forty five percent from where they are now. So 691 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 1: that is giving people again, you know, this feeling that 692 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: oh we're doing well and I've got a lot of room. 693 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: But again, that's your wealth that you've created and it 694 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: may come down some so don't burn that on, you know, 695 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: spending on a family trip or something else. Just lock 696 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: it down for a little while. We are like ninety 697 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: nine percent going to have some sort of a recession 698 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 1: or a stagflationary continued stagflation, aary period where prices eventually 699 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: will come down. Wait it out and do not wreck 700 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: your wealth. We want you to be well in twenty 701 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 1: twenty three and beyond. Okay, I think you probably answered 702 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: this question, But what is the Carol Roth prediction for 703 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,359 Speaker 1: twenty and twenty three. I'm as dark as you can 704 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: get about it. I think we are heading headlong into 705 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: a big old fashioned bubble burst. But you tell me, 706 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: are we? So it all depends in my opinion on 707 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,240 Speaker 1: the labor markets, if we get companies at the point 708 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: where they just start firing people, they're not hiring people, 709 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: and people start losing their jobs, then that whole wealth 710 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 1: of fact, this whole consumer keeping up with the joneses, 711 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: that is going to go away and that will roll 712 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 1: over in terms of the economy. If not, if that 713 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 1: stays strong and we don't get that change because we 714 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 1: have so few workers to fill those positions, then I 715 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 1: think that we end up in this period of continued 716 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:02,840 Speaker 1: stagflation where prices remain elevated, the economy kind of does nothing. 717 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 1: But again, the individual is killing their wealth in that period. 718 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 1: So you're not going to see it, Jesse in the economy. 719 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:14,360 Speaker 1: The economy is gonna kind of be muddying along. But 720 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: where you look at it is at the individual level, 721 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 1: and you're the one. You're having a personal recession, and 722 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 1: that's what I'm really really concerned about. So again, you 723 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: have the opportunity personally to stop that from happening in 724 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 1: your own household and to spread the word. But it really, 725 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,320 Speaker 1: in my opinion, the lynchpin here is the labor market. 726 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: Gil Roth, you're the best to come back soon. I 727 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 1: love to see you. All right, we're gonna lighten the 728 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: mood next Gosh, we need it. After that, Hey, we 729 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 1: got to find out right. While we do that, here's 730 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: something for you to do. He'll become a first TV supporter. 731 00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: You enjoy watching the first I know you do.

Go to the first TV dot com 734 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 1: slash support and sign up. All right, you'll enjoy it. 735 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: We'll be back. Do you ever see the show Veep? 736 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: It's a it's a show on HBO. I would need 737 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: to stress you know how this is a family show. 738 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,359 Speaker 1: We don't we don't cost we don't do anything that 739 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,919 Speaker 1: your kids can't watch, because I know families watch not 740 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: so much. Not one for the kids. But it is 741 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: a hilarious show, and there's a great episode on VP. 742 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 1: It's hilarious. She's just this horrible person because she's a politician, 743 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: and all the people around her are horrible because they're 744 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:45,360 Speaker 1: watched in DC people and she talks about going to 745 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 1: going to get ice cream and one of the guys said, yeah, 746 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: we'll do it. It's called normalizing doing things that she 747 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't normally do to try to make her look like 748 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 1: a normal person. I have always found it hilarious when 749 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,799 Speaker 1: politicians try to do this, when they try to do 750 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: things they clearly don't normally do, but they want to 751 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: make it look like it is. I just want to 752 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: have a beer like you and me.
