1 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 1: Ahead on American Sunrise early edition, President Trump addresses the 2 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: nation with a point by point description of his administration's 3 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: economic progress, but another running theme of the roughly twenty 4 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: minute speech was the many economic damages the President said 5 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: came to this country because of the surge in illegal 6 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: immigration under Joe Biden. Another day, another day of maddening, stonewalling, 7 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: and incompetence in the investigation of the shooting at Brown University. 8 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: The police released this picture of a second person of interest, 9 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: but refused to say whether it's a. 10 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 2: Man or a woman. 11 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: Oh and now we learn that the survivors of the 12 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: shooting have still not been questioned about it, and police 13 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: haven't even asked for their descriptions of the shooter. 14 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 2: They don't want to find the shooter, folks. 15 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: It's mostly symbolic, but a handful of House Republicans break 16 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: ranks from Speaker Mike Johnson and joined the Democrats in 17 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: the push to get another vote on Obamacare subsidy extensions 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: at least sometime next month. But unless the Senate goes 19 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: along too, those subsidies will still die. 20 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 2: By a unanimous vote. 21 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: A DC Appeals Court rules in favor of President Trump's 22 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: order to send National Guard troops onto the streets of 23 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: the nation's capital. There may be more core challenges ahead, 24 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: but this looks like a done deal right now. And 25 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: Nick Reiner is formally arraigned and charged in the murder 26 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: of his parents, Rob and Michelle Reiner, and more details 27 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: are coming out about what may have put the victims 28 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: in more danger than necessary. Folks, you can't treat your 29 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: own family members.

He does everything else. So 51 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: maybe we'll have a two year special extravaganza with all 52 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 1: those people and the rockets. Of course, it is December seventeenth, 53 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: is the one year anniversary of the show today being 54 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: the eighteenth, and I don't know if the rockets are 55 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: available around that time of year, but I'll try my best. 56 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: All right, All getting aside, let's get to all the 57 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: news again, a lot of it overnight, and helping us 58 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: to go through it is Macroeconomists and the CEO of 59 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: M two Communications, Mitch Rochelle and Mitch. 60 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 2: I thought it was interesting. 61 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 1: In President Trump's speech last night, which was ostensibly all 62 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: about the economy, but he really kept making a lot 63 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: of connections between the economic challenges in this country and 64 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: illegal immigration and the drains on our economy. Here's one 65 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: of those moments when he did that. 66 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 2: Check it out. 67 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 5: They flooded your cities and towns with illegal aliens. They 68 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 5: decimated your hard earned savings, They indoctrinated your children with 69 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 5: hate for America released. Really, I mean, they just released 70 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 5: a level of violent felons that we had never seen 71 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 5: to prey on innocent They caused war, they caused mayhem, 72 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 5: they caused a horrible situation all over the globe. But 73 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 5: now you have a president who fights for the law abiding, 74 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 5: hard working people of our country, the ones who make 75 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 5: this nation run, who make this nation work. 76 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: And you know, Mitch, that's significant because the Chamber of Commerce, 77 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: business school economist model for years has been telling us 78 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: that illegal immigration, cheap immigrant labor, is the answer to 79 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: a lot of economic problems. 80 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 2: It's good for the economy. 81 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: I think that the last few years have finally proven 82 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: that to be completely wrong, especially when you're giving them 83 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: gift cards and using hotel rooms and other resources. I 84 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: think we've learned something economically from this president one hundred percent. 85 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 4: And some of the left leaning talking heads who are 86 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 4: economic advisors to Democrat president went on cable news and 87 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 4: talked about how the cornerstone of our hardworking economy are 88 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 4: illegal undocumented workers, because without them, we can't do the 89 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 4: things that Americans don't want to do. I mean, they 90 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 4: said that ugly thing out loud. So the President's right. 91 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 4: I wouldn't give the president an a though on yesterday's 92 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 4: performance because I think messaging from the administration right now 93 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: is very, very important. I think the Democrats sort of 94 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 4: tripped and fell into a message around affordability in those 95 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 4: election days, special elections or off cycle elections as well, 96 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 4: and what they found is that affordability is something that 97 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 4: is the number one kitchen table issue and people feel it. 98 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 4: Blaming the Biden administration is factually correct. However, what are 99 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 4: you doing about it? What are you going to do 100 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 4: about it? How are you going to make my life better? 101 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 4: Is what's going to matter in November of twenty twenty six. 102 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: So I think, yeah, we have to understand the problem, 103 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,119 Speaker 4: but we also have to fix it. And I think 104 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 4: we're going to have to focus on messaging the fix 105 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 4: as opposed to just framing the problem. 106 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, a lot of us before the 107 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: speech were wondering if the President would go into a 108 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,239 Speaker 1: more Bill Clinton like I feel your pain type message. 109 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: I think he tried to, but that's just not his 110 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: style and sometimes it's better not to change your style 111 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: and to. 112 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 2: Be more authentic. But I agree with you. 113 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 1: I think there were moments in the speech where he 114 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: did hint, however, at some good things that are coming 115 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: for the US and the coming year. Of course, Scott Besson, 116 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: the Treasury Secretary, got ahead of him on that the 117 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: last few days, talking about how the refunds, the tax refunds, 118 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: are going to be a lot bigger this year. And 119 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: as of course I always say, getting a big tax 120 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: refund is usually kind of a double edged sword. That 121 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: means that you lent the government money at free interest, 122 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: no interest for a year. However, this is different because 123 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: your refunds are going to be larger this year because 124 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: of a law that was passed in the second half 125 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: of the year and went into effect later. So you 126 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: shouldn't feel guilty about that. It's not like you made 127 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: a mistake by getting a huge refund. But there was, 128 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, a few other things too. He talked about 129 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: what he was going to he didn't say specifically, but 130 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: he said he's doing something about housing. I'm guessing he 131 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: means building some housing on federal lands at cheaper prices. 132 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: But I you know, I'm looking at that turnaround. I mean, 133 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: what do you think the chances are that some of 134 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: these programs turning around the main street economy at some 135 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: point next year. 136 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 4: I think it's it's very possible that, you know, some 137 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 4: of the initiatives are going to bear fruit. The thing 138 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 4: I worry about, Jake, is what happens when you put 139 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 4: more money in americans pockets, which which the treasure Secretary 140 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 4: one hundred percent correct that people's tax refunds are going 141 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 4: to be bigger than they were last year. And I 142 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 4: think a lot of people are going to be surprised 143 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 4: by how big their refunds are as a result of 144 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 4: the combination of the twenty seventeen tax policy and the 145 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 4: extending of benefits in the One. 146 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 6: Big, Beautiful Bill. 147 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 4: The problem is, what we're going to do is we're 148 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 4: going to dump more money into the economy, and that could, 149 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 4: you know, bring inflation back if we haven't fixed the 150 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 4: supply side of the economy. And since COVID, we have 151 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 4: done nothing to meaningfully fix the supply side of the economy. 152 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 4: I believe that the initiatives that you reference are designed 153 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 4: to fix the supply side of the economy. But having 154 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 4: you know, foreign companies and foreign nations continue to invest 155 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 4: in the United States and build plants, Jesus, those plans 156 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 4: won't be done until you know, the twenty twenty eight 157 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 4: election cycle. So I don't think we're going to see that. 158 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 4: I am fearful about inflation. I think the FED has 159 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 4: done a terrible job, mind you, but you know it's 160 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 4: it's something that could politically be a liability for the 161 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 4: administration if inflation comes back. And if you were expecting 162 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 4: a thousand dollars refund and you get a two thousand 163 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 4: dollars or twenty five hundred dollars refund and you pump 164 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 4: that money back into the economy, which people are going 165 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 4: to do, that could bring inflation back, and that would 166 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 4: be a terrible thing for the Republicans. 167 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: Well, if I get a bigger refund, I'm putting all 168 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: the money on the Jets to win the Super Bowl. 169 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 2: That's not why, right, That won't. 170 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: Hurt inflation, that'll actually cause deflation of all our hearts. 171 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 4: No, you know we should put it on. Put it 172 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,959 Speaker 4: on the next to win the NBA Championship. Now there's 173 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 4: something that you could win some money on. 174 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: So I don't know. 175 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: I don't think the Oklahoma thunder are going to be 176 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: losing to FS. We can have that's an entirely different discussion. Now, Mitch, 177 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: there's really a lot of confusion, and I really believe 178 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: it is confusion about the state of the job market now. 179 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: Of course, my disclaimer is I don't trust government jobs reports, 180 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: not even because of partisanship. I don't trust them because 181 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: I've seen the way that they do those reports and 182 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. I've never really trusted them. However, it does 183 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: feel like we are in what people are calling the 184 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: no hire, no fire economy right now. Not a lot 185 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: of layoffs, that's good, but also not a lot of 186 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: big job hiring. To me, that's obviously a big part 187 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: of it. But people need to remember that when jobs 188 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 1: start to really grow in this country, we really have 189 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: new hiring, it's usually at the lower levels of the economy. 190 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 2: That's how it works. I don't really know where we're 191 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 2: going to go there. 192 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 1: But President Trump did mention in the speech last night 193 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: that really interesting statistic about how Native born Americans are 194 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: basically getting all the net new job growth in this country, 195 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: and that's not something that the economic reports are going 196 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: to show is basically an overall gain. 197 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 2: But couldn't make a big impact on mainstream. 198 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 4: No and the wolksters who work in the Bureau Labor 199 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 4: Statistics would never even want to capture of that data 200 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,599 Speaker 4: because it would be contrary to you know, they're politically 201 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 4: correct ideology. We are jake in a no fire, no 202 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 4: higher economy. And this is largely because there's a report 203 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 4: that comes out called the Jolts Report, and it talks 204 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 4: about job openings, and we for a quite a while 205 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 4: we had twice as many job openings in this country 206 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 4: as we did unemployed people. The ratio is two to one. 207 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 4: Right now, the ratio is one to one. And because 208 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 4: we came from this period where the ratio is two 209 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 4: to one, meaning there were so many job openings that 210 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 4: we couldn't fill because don't forget, we had four years 211 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 4: of Biden economic policy where they were basically paying people 212 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 4: not to work. Okay, companies were panicked about finding labor, 213 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 4: and they over hired, and we probably have two and 214 00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 4: a half years of companies white collar jobs, blue collar jobs, 215 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 4: to some degree over hiring. So now what they're doing 216 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 4: is they're shedding their employment base by attrition. They're not 217 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 4: firing people when people leave, they leave, they're probably firing 218 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 4: the worst performers. But what they're doing is they're not hiring. 219 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 4: So we have two graduating classes of college educated kids. 220 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 4: We have the twenty twenty five graduates, we have the 221 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 4: twenty twenty four graduates who are struggling to find jobs, 222 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 4: and that's really a problem for the economy. And I 223 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 4: agree with you one hundred percent. Firing the head of 224 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 4: the Bureau Labor Statistics was the President did was a 225 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 4: brilliant move. Unfortunately we haven't replaced them, but that's a 226 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 4: system that needs to be completely overhauled. You know, the 227 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 4: latest cutting edge technology that they're using to survey employers 228 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 4: is the fax machine, and that only a couple of 229 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 4: years ago replaced the telephone, which is what they were 230 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 4: to survey employers. I'm not kidding you. They literally call 231 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 4: HR managers and they don't update their roles of who 232 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 4: to call, so they're leaving voicemails for people who don't 233 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 4: work there anymore. And they're wondering why they're not getting 234 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 4: accurate data, and they're wondering why every month we revised 235 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 4: a previous month's report in a material way. The Bureau 236 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 4: Labor Statistics needs to be redone stem to stern and 237 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 4: that will end up causing a problem because. 238 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 2: When we see how. 239 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 4: Inept the government is. I don't think that lifelong unelected 240 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 4: bureaucrats are going to go along with, you know, redoing 241 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 4: something that will expose their inemptitude. 242 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, well you know they're calling the hr manager at 243 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: Ponderosa Steakhouse that changed plus thirty years ago. 244 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 2: It's good place. 245 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: But anyway, and a point while taken about our recent 246 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: college graduates. My older daughter who graduated this year, happy 247 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: to say she had a job waiting for her all 248 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: senior year of college. 249 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: She's working as a bank analyst. Now. 250 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 1: I keep telling her every day how fortunate she is 251 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: compared to her classmates. So you make a very good point, Mitch. Michelle, 252 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. If you don't 253 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: see you before the end of the year, have a 254 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: happy New Year, and I'll be faxing you a happy 255 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: happy Holidays card in a moment. 256 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 2: Good to see it, Jay, Thanks Mitch. 257 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: All right, coming up, the maddening incompetence and dishonesty in 258 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: the Brown University shooting investigation seems to reach new heights 259 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: every day. Wait, didn't you hear what's not being done 260 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: and what can only be described as a half hearted 261 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: effort to find a murderer. But first it was once 262 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: the TV event, second only to. 263 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: The super Bowl. But wait until you hear how far 264 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 2: the oscars have fallen. 265 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition will be right back. 266 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: And that old soilkatnd when they placed. 267 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 7: It on his head, Hey big, i'ms and with a 268 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 7: cong cop pipe. 269 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 2: And a button.

This is not a 281 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: passive exercise watching this program. You can't just stand there 282 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: like Frosty. You gotta comment and I'm reading them. Starting 283 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty nine, get this the Oscar ceremony, including 284 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: the red carpet coverage and all that stuff, all the 285 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:53,479 Speaker 1: bells and Whistles is going to be exclusively on YouTube. 286 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 2: Now. 287 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: Look, I know I'm a gen xter and maybe I 288 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: find YouTube to be a little bit more downmarket than younger. 289 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: People, But come on, this used to be Emilyvinn. 290 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: She's joining us right now, Emily. This was at one 291 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: time the biggest TV event, second only. 292 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 2: To the super Bowl. It was a real big moment. Now. 293 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: I think this just goes. 294 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: To show how far not only the oscars have fallen, 295 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: but the entire in the theater movie industry. I think 296 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: I go to see a movie in the theater like 297 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: once a year Now. I used to go like every week. 298 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: This is a real fall from grace. 299 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 8: In my opinion, it's just because the movies today are 300 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 8: really bad. They're just not as good as. 301 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 2: They used to be. 302 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 8: I mean, I do enjoy going to the movies. It 303 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 8: just feels kind of nostalgic. But it's just the movies 304 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 8: aren't any good anymore, so that's why people aren't watching. 305 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 8: But what's interesting about the oscars. I don't even remember 306 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 8: a year like the super Bowl right that I sat 307 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 8: down and got excited and wanted to watch the oscars. 308 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 8: I'm sure I did when I was younger with my 309 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 8: parents or something. But if I saw anything about the Oscars, 310 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 8: anyone that won any awards, it was on YouTube. It 311 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 8: was clips from the night before that I saw the 312 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 8: next day. And so I think this is actually a 313 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 8: really smart move for them to be doing this, because 314 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 8: going to be able to reach a much younger audience 315 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 8: and people will actually want to tune in on that medium. 316 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 2: Now that's Emily for everyone listening. 317 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: That was Emily's nice way of saying, Jake, you're you're 318 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: really a little too old. 319 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 2: It's possible. 320 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: The point being though that I think, look, a lot 321 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: of the movies now that people are seeing are coming 322 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 1: from the streaming networks. They're watching it on Netflix. Netflix 323 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: has become, by a lot of accounts, really the most. 324 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 2: Powerful studio in Hollywood. 325 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,959 Speaker 1: And if they are able to buy Warner Brothers Warner Brothers, 326 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: that'll be make them even more powerful. 327 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: So maybe this is just the you know, the old 328 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 2: Marshall mccluan, you can look him up. The medium is 329 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 2: the message kind of thing. 330 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: If you're watching movies on streaming channels, then maybe you 331 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: should be seeing the Oscars on streaming channels. And as 332 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: simple as that, maybe that's maybe I'm missing the point. 333 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 2: Maybe you're right. 334 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 8: I think it's just going in that direction. Like I said, 335 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 8: whenever I see anything that you know, happens like this 336 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 8: in a live TV event, is usually clips. 337 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 9: And if it's not on YouTube, then it's. 338 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 2: On social media. 339 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 8: It's on ex it's on Instagram, something like that. So 340 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 8: I wouldn't be surprised to see, you know, the Oscars 341 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 8: or maybe even the Super Bowl or something to team 342 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,479 Speaker 8: up with social media platforms eventually one day there's just 343 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 8: more eyeballs there. 344 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 345 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 1: Well, one thing I can tell you though, is that 346 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 1: whatever channel it's on, whatever streaming network gets on, I 347 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: used to really really enjoy it, but I haven't watched 348 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 1: it in years, And it of course has a lot 349 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: to do with the political browbeating. It started with all 350 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: the climate change browbeating. I didn't mind when they were 351 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,959 Speaker 1: standing up about cancer or AIDS or something like that. 352 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 2: That didn't bother me. But the climate change stuff. 353 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,479 Speaker 1: When every single presenter who was lecturing me about climate 354 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: change had a limo outside the auditorium that was idling 355 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 1: for five hours, I couldn't take it anymore. So there's 356 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: the politics to Emily that, you know, they're going to 357 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: try to shove down our throats. 358 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 8: And that has been, you know, kind of seeping into 359 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 8: every industry. You know, everything gets political these days. I 360 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 8: missed the days when it was I think my mom, 361 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 8: I think my dad, and I think my faith. 362 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 9: You know that. 363 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 8: Bring back, Bring that back and maybe people will start 364 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 8: to tune in again. 365 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 366 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: And the streakers. There was once a streaker who streaked 367 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: a us the stage in the rearies. That was a 368 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: good moment too.

Hey, 431 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 1: the big tech stocks, they were the big losers yesterday. 432 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: They've been the losers for the first couple of days 433 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: of this week, and it's mostly because of Oracle. 434 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 2: Oracle is that software giant. 435 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: It's now a major AI player, and it's becoming the 436 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,360 Speaker 1: new punching bag for every stock investor, big time stock investor, 437 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: the brokerage houses and stuff like that. Who's having little 438 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: bit of worries about AI. You know, we've been talking 439 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: about this almost all year. A lot of money is 440 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: going into these AI stocks. A lot of people worry 441 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 1: that it's a bubble. I get that, but they end 442 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: up using one or two stocks to sort of get 443 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: all their anxieties out on So they're punching on Oracle 444 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 1: right now. What happened in Oracle was they want to 445 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: build Oracle does a ten billion dollar AI data center, 446 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: and some of their private partners, some of their private investors. 447 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 2: Are pulling out of that venture. 448 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 1: They think it's too expensive, and so the market is 449 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: taking that as a signal that Oracle should beat up 450 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 1: on all of AI should be beat up on. Look, folks, 451 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: if I know one thing, the demand for the AI 452 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: data centers isn't going anywhere. They're going to build that 453 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: thing eventually, and someone's going to back it because it's 454 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: the need. 455 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 2: For it is very large. I don't know if beating 456 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 2: up on Oracle is the right way to go. 457 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe maybe just diversify all of your tech investments 458 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: instead of pulling it all out of Oracle like they've 459 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,199 Speaker 1: been doing the last couple of days. I'm not an 460 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: Oracle investor, full disclosure, I'm not not trying to drum 461 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: up business for them, but it just seems to me 462 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: like punching on one company is silly. 463 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 2: Okay, don't work. Worry though. There's still a big appetite 464 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 2: for stocks overall. 465 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: We found that out yesterday with an ipo, despite the 466 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: fact that the markets were down pretty sharply yesterday. The 467 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: IPO for a medical supply company called Medline. There they 468 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: are clapping on their first day of trading yesterday. It 469 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: closed forty one percent higher on day one, nice day's 470 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: work for that company. That's a major jump in valuation. 471 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 2: Folks. 472 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: Clearly there's a lot of money to be invested, and 473 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: the stock investors don't just want to put it in 474 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: a basement somewhere under the mattress. So, folks, this is 475 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: just a case of there's plenty of money out there. 476 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 2: We are not in a recession. 477 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: And if you can put a forty one percent increase 478 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: on a new IPO like this, that's something else. Okay, 479 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 1: very very bare boned budget airlines Frontier Airlines you know them, 480 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: And Spirit Airlines you know them too. They're talking about merging. 481 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: I guess Misery Loves Company could be the new name 482 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 1: of the airline because Frontier and Spirit are really really struggling. 483 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: Despite their lower costs. They're not known for decent service. 484 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you know, I'm not trying to beat up 485 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: on them. But as you know, if you go online 486 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: and go on the social media platforms and you look 487 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: up fights at gates and people having all kinds of 488 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 1: crazy incidents on flights, Spirit is usually the airline where 489 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 1: that happens. Now Spirit is officially bankrupt. They've cut back 490 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: a lot of their flight schedule. Frontier has also lost 491 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: on ninety million dollars so far this year, and by 492 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: the way, the woes but both of these airlines have 493 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: a lot to do with the Biden administration. Do you 494 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: remember Jet Blue wanted to buy Spirit Airlines and not 495 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: only take over some of their roots, but improve the 496 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 1: quality of the experience of flying on Spirit Airlines and 497 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and the Biden administration or whoever was doing 498 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: the work there. 499 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 2: We know it wasn't him. The autopen blocked that. 500 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: Merger, and to me, that was really just a cynical 501 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: giveaway to people who fly Spirit Airlines who didn't want 502 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: to pay another five bucks per ticket, not realizing that 503 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: Believe me, it's worth it.

That was nice. 520 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 1: And now you have a lot more owners than that 521 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: of these four X models who had their Jeeps recalled 522 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: three times now this year alone because their cars can 523 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 1: catch on fire. 524 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 2: Not only do they have to wait. 525 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: For the recall for the next fix, but they're being 526 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: told don't park it in an indoor garage or any 527 00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: or an outdoor garage or you know, when you go 528 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 1: to the or something like that, because if a catches fire, 529 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: it'll cause a catastrophic event. That's a nice feeling, especially 530 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: in the winter, you got to keep your jeep parked outside. Stillantis, 531 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: which is the owner of Jeep, Chrysler and Dodge, is 532 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: offering a one hundred dollars give certificate for people who've 533 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 1: had all these multiple recalls and a sincere apology. How 534 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: about making your evs properly. That would be a nicer 535 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 1: than the apology. This is just a tough situation. My 536 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: condolences for those of you who own those vehicles. Okay, 537 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 1: illegal aliens, no problem. No water in the reservoirs or 538 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: the hydrants when you're having a wildfire, that's okay too. 539 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 1: Open air drug galleries in Los Angeles and San Francisco 540 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: come on down. 541 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 2: But whoa. 542 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: If you have even slightly misleading or unclear advertising in California, 543 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 1: the state's gonna. 544 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 2: Crack down on you. That's the real problem. 545 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: They're going after Tesla in California because Tesla kept using 546 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: the term self driving without a little bit of a 547 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: footnote saying you still have to watch the road. There 548 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: still needs to be someone sitting behind the wheel. California 549 00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: is literally going to pull Tesla's license to sell their 550 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: cars in the state until they change that advertising. 551 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: Of course, Tesla's going to do it. They're not stupid, 552 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 2: But my goodness, I think California has some bigger fish 553 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 2: to fry. But that's just me. 554 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: Okay, this is the time of year when we see 555 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: a lot of large auto plants around America taking a 556 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 1: one or two week break, that's totally normal. That doesn't 557 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: mean layoffs, that doesn't mean the companies are in trouble. 558 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: This is what happens this time of year. They also 559 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: do it in the middle of the summer, by the way, 560 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: But two GM plants are shutting down for a lot 561 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: longer than usual, at least a month. 562 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 2: That would be the Flint plant. 563 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: The plant the plant in Flint, Michigan, from December twenty 564 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: fourth to January twenty sixth. Now that's where they make 565 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: the Chevy Silverado HD. The Gmccerra HD. Also the Bowling Green, 566 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: Ohio Corvette plant is going to close for about that 567 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: same period. Now, when they close those plants for that long, 568 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: that usually means something very new is going to be 569 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: added to the cars that are built there, maybe new engines, 570 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: maybe another kind of powertrain situation. 571 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 2: So we'll see. I'll be keeping an eye on that. 572 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: Those are three popular models, of course, the Sierra, the Silverado, especially. 573 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 2: The Corvette too. 574 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: All right, remember in Austin Powers, when Doctor Evil tells 575 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: his underlings that all he wants are sharks with frickin 576 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: laser beams on their heads. Well is that too much 577 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: to ask? Well, apparently Ukraine is kind of taking that idea. 578 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: The military commander's there, just one fancy BMW's with big 579 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: rocket launchers in the back. No, really, it's happening. Military 580 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: spotters have now seen video evidence of the Ukrainians mounting 581 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: and using a rocket launcher on a BMW seven sedan. 582 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 2: Of course, the car trades armor. 583 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: There's no armor on that car, so watch out if 584 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: you're driving it. It trades the armor for the speed 585 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: to fire and the agility to move from different places 586 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: really quickly. I wonder what Jake from State Farm would 587 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: say about ensuring that vehicle. All I can say is 588 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: good luck doesn't seem to be what the car was 589 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: meant to be used for. Okay, coming up, we are 590 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: now witnessing what absolutely looks like a deliberate incompetence in 591 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: the Brand University shooting investigation. 592 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have the latest on that and later. 593 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth lowers the boom on a 594 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: chaplain corps that's gone way off the rails. But get 595 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: ready for secularists and folks who don't understand a thing 596 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,479 Speaker 1: about religion. To go crazy about this American Sunrise early 597 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: edition will be right back, he said. 598 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 7: They keep his touchstill summer time to the beats to 599 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 7: his book Titania. 600 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 9: Now this time it will. 601 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: It's Thursday, December eighteenth. Here this morning's top stories. President 602 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: Trump addresses the nation with a point by point description 603 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: of his nation what he's been doing to fight the 604 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: economic troubles in the country, But another running theme of 605 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: the roughly twenty minute speech was the many economic damages 606 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: the President says come to this country because of the 607 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: surge and illegal immigration under Joe Biden. 608 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 2: Another day and another day of madding. 609 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: Stonewalling, and incompetence. In the investigation of the shooting at 610 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: Brown University. The police released this picture of a second 611 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: person of interest, but refused to say whether it's a. 612 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: Man or a woman. Thanks. 613 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: Oh, and now we learn that the survivors of the 614 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: shooting have still not been questioned about it, and police 615 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: haven't even asked for their descriptions of the shooter. 616 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: Boy, They're on it. 617 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: It's mostly symbolic, but a handful of House Republicans break 618 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: ranks from Speaker Mike Johnson and join the Democrats in 619 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: the push to get another vote on Obamacare subsidy extensions. 620 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: But unless the Senate goes along to those subsidies will 621 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: still die. And by a unanimous vote, a DC Appeals 622 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: Court rules in favor of President Trump's order to send 623 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: National Guard troops onto the streets of the nation's capital. 624 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 2: There may be more core. 625 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: Challenges, but this looks like a done deal right now. 626 00:31:55,520 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition continues not Welcome back to the 627 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: beginning of our second year here on American Sunrise Early Edition. 628 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: Yesterday was the one year anniversary of this program. Thank 629 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: you so much for those who have been joining us, 630 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: who have been watching from the beginning. Of those who 631 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: joined during the first year, it's still early. You're still 632 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: a founding member of this audience if you join. 633 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 2: Now, and I really appreciate it. 634 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: Joining us right now is Gerard Feliddi from the Lawfare Project. 635 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 2: And Gerard. 636 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: While the speech by President Trump last night was obstensively 637 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: about the economy, it really kept going back to the 638 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: issue of illegal immigration, and at one point President Trump 639 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: reminded us of the excuses, the legal excuses Joe Biden 640 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: used to give us for the open border check it out. 641 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 5: For the past seven months, zero illegal aliens have been 642 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 5: allowed into our country, I think, which everyone said was 643 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 5: absolutely impossible. Do you remember when Joe Biden said that 644 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 5: he needed Congress to pass legislation to help close the border. 645 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 5: He was always blaming Congress and everyone else. As it 646 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 5: turned out, we didn't need legislation. We just needed a 647 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 5: new president, you. 648 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 2: Know, Gerard. 649 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: From a legal standpoint, and that's kind of interesting some 650 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: of the things that we've I think that. 651 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 2: A lot of people have forgotten. 652 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: Of course, to Aard, we've seen a lot of legal 653 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: challenges to individual deportations, to ice going in certain places. 654 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 2: Correct me if I'm wrong. 655 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: I haven't seen a lot of, at least not successful, 656 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 1: legal challenges to act to the sealing of the border, 657 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 1: especially the southern border. I haven't heard much about it. 658 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: I guess they didn't have any leg to stand on. 659 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: I guess Joe Biden and the Autoban didn't have any 660 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: leg to stand on all those years. 661 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:39,959 Speaker 3: Well, you know what, let's use the words that President 662 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 3: Trump did not. The Democrats lied. This law was always there, 663 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 3: we could always seal the borders. It was just that 664 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 3: the Democrats did not want to they did not have 665 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 3: the political will to do so, because the laws gave 666 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 3: them the power to do so, as President Trump has done. 667 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 10: Now. 668 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 3: The legal challenges you're seeing are due process challenges, are 669 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 3: challenges to the detentions and deportations of specific individuals based 670 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 3: on specific facts. But for the general principle that the 671 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 3: president can seal our borders and keep us safe, that's undisputed. 672 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,800 Speaker 3: That's why you don't see successful challenges to this, because 673 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 3: Donald Cupp was guide all along. The president has that 674 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 3: power to seal the borders. 675 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: Well, if there's an important job to be done as 676 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,240 Speaker 1: president and the president says he can't do it because 677 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: of whatever, then he shouldn't be president. 678 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 2: And that's, by the. 679 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: Way, the true of CEOs. It's true of someone that 680 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: might be a friend of yours. Don't be the friend, 681 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: don't be the CEO. Don't be the president. If the 682 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: most important job of the thing that's so crucial the 683 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: person keeps telling you they can't do it, it's a 684 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: very easy solution to the problem. All right, Gerard, I 685 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: am still really enraged. There's really no other word for it. 686 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 1: People have been watching this program for this year know 687 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 1: that I don't get angry, but I am really really 688 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,240 Speaker 1: angry about what's going on at Brown University. What looks 689 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: to me and I think everybody who has a brain 690 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: to be deliberate in competence on the part of the 691 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,720 Speaker 1: Providence Police, on the part of Brown University. And even 692 00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: more enraging is the way that some politicians aren't not 693 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: only giving cover to the cops here and to the university, 694 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: but are trying to shame anyone who's asking very logical 695 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 1: and fair questions about this incident. Here's one of the 696 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: worst of those politicians, Senator from Rhode Island, Sheldon Whitehouse, 697 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,760 Speaker 1: getting on his ridiculous high horse. 698 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 2: Listen to this and try to not have your polls 699 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 2: go too high. 700 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 6: No need from an investigative point of view for people 701 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:30,320 Speaker 6: who have no idea what they're talking about to offer 702 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 6: their stupid and ill informed views about what happened all 703 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 6: over the internet. Sorry, please, just from a law enforcement perspective, 704 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 6: ask anyone who sees this to just shut up until 705 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 6: we know who did it and why. We will find 706 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,959 Speaker 6: out give it some time. 707 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Sheldon, I'm not going to shut up because 708 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm not going to shut up about the fact that 709 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 1: these are facts. The police still haven't interrogated, or interrogate 710 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: is a tough word. Haven't questioned the witnesses who were 711 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: there in the room during the shooting, haven't asked them, Hey, 712 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: tell us what happened? What did the shooter look like? 713 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 1: Five days later, now six days, they still. 714 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 2: Haven't done it. I'm not going to shut up about that. 715 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: I'm not going to shut up about the fact that 716 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:22,760 Speaker 1: Brown University won't explain why so many of their cameras 717 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 1: were either turned off or they're not handing them over. 718 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 2: And of course I'm. 719 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: Not going to shut up about the fact that a 720 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: student who really seems to match the description of the 721 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 1: person of interest has had all of his personal website 722 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 1: pages on the university's website scrubbed before any of us 723 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: even heard of him. It was not a something they 724 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: did after we mentioned his name. We only started mentioning 725 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 1: his name after we saw that his web pages were scrubbed. 726 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,879 Speaker 1: Those are not stupid questions, those are fair questions. This 727 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 1: guy really, I mean, you know when you're wrong and 728 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: you're also nasty about it. 729 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 2: It's a great combination. 730 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 3: Look right right now, it's this investigation is making the 731 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 3: keystone cops look like consummate profession It looks six days 732 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 3: after that. The police don't know how many students are 733 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 3: in their room. They haven't investigated, asking them questions, asking 734 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 3: for witness statements. There is not even clarity as to 735 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 3: how many students were injured or what the extent of 736 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 3: the injuries were. We know so very little because the 737 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 3: police does not seem to be on top of it, 738 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 3: and the bigger questions. You know, we all have the 739 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 3: name that's been floating around the internet. If this is 740 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 3: a person unrelated to this investigation, to the shooting, Merely 741 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 3: taking down his Internet pages at Brown University doesn't stop discussion. 742 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 3: Why isn't the university, Why isn't the police coming out 743 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 3: and saying affirmatively he's not involved, This person is not 744 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 3: a person of interest, Leave him alone. We are taking 745 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 3: down his pages for personal protection. It's just creating more 746 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 3: speculation and more rumors. And look from a personal perspective, 747 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 3: I represent two kids at the Paul University who were 748 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 3: violently attacked on campus. The university knew the atmosphere was dangerous, 749 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 3: yet did nothing. I'm seeing the parallels here at Brown. 750 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 3: They knew that there were problems with radical activists on campus. 751 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 3: They knew that there were problems targeting Jews and Conservatives 752 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 3: and other American students on campus. Yet here it seems 753 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 3: that they did nothing and the shooting took place. So 754 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 3: there's a lot of blame that goes around. But I 755 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 3: think here they're trying to deflect it and avoid their 756 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,240 Speaker 3: responsibility for this massive failure that led to the deaths 757 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 3: of two instant students. 758 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, they are actively recruiting students with violent pass, students 759 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: with radical pass, students who are too old to be 760 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,840 Speaker 1: attending a university at the undergraduate level and living in 761 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: the dorms. The person of interest or the person who's 762 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: had his web pages scrubb. I think it's a sophomore 763 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: at the university and he's twenty seven years old. That's 764 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: already a bad mix. They're happy to recruit and bring 765 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 1: people on campus and to celebrate them with special web 766 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 1: pages talking about how great that they're at the university 767 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 1: who are putting other students in danger and they don't 768 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: want to take the responsibility for it. I don't know 769 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 1: if they're getting financial backing from Cutter or another country, 770 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: or people who are advocating for them. 771 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 2: To bring them on campus or what. But that's one 772 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 2: thing going on. 773 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,879 Speaker 1: Well, here's something else infuriating that happened this week. We 774 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: saw those FBI emails and memos sent to the Merrick 775 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 1: Garland DOJ back in twenty twenty two saying, I don't 776 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 1: think we have a justification for a mar A Lago 777 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: raid on President Trump's home. But they did it anyway. 778 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 1: They still went through Milania's underwear drawer. They still took 779 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: all those classified documents that were secured in a safe 780 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: and strewed them all over the floor to make it 781 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: look like, you know, that's how they were being held 782 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 1: at mar A Lago. And they still they did it anyway. 783 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just incredible to me. Even the FBI, 784 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: which isn't exactly you know, it wasn't exactly a great 785 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 1: pro Trump organization at the time, even they had a 786 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: problem with it, but of course the DOJ ordered them 787 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:34,720 Speaker 1: to go ahead. 788 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 3: Now this shows how weaponized the legal system has become, 789 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 3: especially the criminal justice system. They were directed to carry 790 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 3: out that grade by the Department of Justice, by appointees 791 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 3: of the administration, So this was really a political targeting. 792 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,439 Speaker 3: When even the FBI was saying, look, there's no probable cause, 793 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 3: we don't have enough to go in there. And beyond that, 794 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 3: there were even discussions on whether there should be discussions 795 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 3: with Trump's legal team and security before executing the war. 796 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 3: And then the DOJ was pressing to just for these 797 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 3: agents to just show up unannounced. So this really shows 798 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 3: that President Trump was targeted politically and the FBI was 799 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,879 Speaker 3: weaponized as a lot of people have been seeing all along. 800 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 2: To really go after him. 801 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 3: This is despicable and this is something that really needs 802 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 3: to be investigated. Who gave those orders because certainly what 803 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 3: you don't have probable cause, but you're making believe, you're 804 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,720 Speaker 3: putting on paper that there is. That's a legal problem. 805 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 3: You may have people who purjure themselves, you may have 806 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 3: criminal investigations that come out, and those need to take place. 807 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: Just awful, all right, I only have about twenty seconds left, Gerard. 808 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: But and this is something that the mainstream media is 809 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,320 Speaker 1: going to ignore because the mainstream media is really even 810 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: more focused than usual on this messaging that everything is 811 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 1: falling apart for President Trumping. 812 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 2: That's the only story they want to put out there 813 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 2: right now. 814 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: But he did get a big legal victory yesterday, a 815 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,800 Speaker 1: three to zero decision in an appeals court in DC 816 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:59,360 Speaker 1: approving the National Guard deployment in our nation's capital. 817 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 2: That's a big win because not only will that. 818 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,359 Speaker 1: Solidify the situation in Washington, I think it will make 819 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 1: it somewhat easier for the President to continue to do 820 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: that in other cities that need it. Again, the mainstream 821 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 1: media is not going to cover this very strongly. They'll 822 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,399 Speaker 1: put it, they'll put it, you know, they'll they'll check 823 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: the box, but they're not going to make it part 824 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: of their big narrative. 825 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:17,240 Speaker 2: This is a big win for the president. 826 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 3: In every case where we've seen this appeal or denials appealed, 827 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 3: we've seen President Trump prevail. He has that authority to 828 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 3: call out the National Guard. Every time this has been 829 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 3: taken up on appeal he has won. This is not 830 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 3: the first time, so he has right to be doing so. 831 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,439 Speaker 3: He has the legal system supporting him. And this win 832 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 3: is very powerful because it does give him the tools 833 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 3: to crack down on a lot of crime that's taking 834 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 3: place in Democrats are doing nothing about. 835 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's got to be something. 836 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: I think this tremendous support for this, and again to 837 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 1: walk down a Street where he used to be worried 838 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: about walking and now feeling confident about doing it. You 839 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 1: have no idea what a boost to human rights and 840 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: decency that is.

David 847 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 1: Brody and I will discuss the story you might have 848 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 1: missed when American Sunrise Early edition comes right back. 849 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 9: Bells those hopday Jay and gee bells, those happy Ji 850 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 9: and get. 851 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 2: Outside is frightful. 852 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: Oh, it's way too early for any of the people 853 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 1: who are out drinking and carousing on Bourbon Street last 854 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: night to be out this morning in New Orleans. 855 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 2: That's what it looks like when of the party's over. 856 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 2: It looks like they had a little rain there. That's good. 857 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 2: The street's got a free cleaning. Welcome back to American 858 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 2: Sunrise Early Edition. 859 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,840 Speaker 1: Most people associate Bourbon Street with with vice in the 860 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: opposite of religion. So let's talk about religion right now 861 00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: to clear our mental Palate, a Secretary of warp Exit, 862 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 1: has been busy clearing out a lot of. 863 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 2: The wokism and the DEI. 864 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 1: And all the political stuff that's not necessary out of 865 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 1: all of the armed forces. That's what he's been very 866 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 1: busy doing. And now that effort I think sadly include 867 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 1: because this is how bad it got, He's had to 868 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 1: do this at the chaplain cores check it out. 869 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 10: These types of training materials have no place in the 870 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 10: War Department. Our chaplains are chaplains, not emotional support officers, 871 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 10: and we're going to treat them as such. That's why today, 872 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 10: in my direction, we are also simplifying the faith and 873 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 10: belief coding system. In recent years, it ballooned to over 874 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:44,799 Speaker 10: two hundred overly complex faith and belief codes. An overwhelming 875 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:50,240 Speaker 10: majority of the military population only uses six codes. Eleven 876 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 10: are not used by anyone. So we're going to streamline 877 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 10: it and move it to a new list of religious 878 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 10: affiliation codes so that our chaplains can actually use it. 879 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,240 Speaker 2: To Minister bet or to the flock. 880 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 1: And David Brody joins me right now, and the last 881 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: thing he said is really the most important minister to 882 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 1: the flock, you know, David, There is a major difference 883 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: between being the clergyman at the head or at the 884 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:18,919 Speaker 1: head of a church or a synagogue or any other 885 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: house of worship in the civilian world, and ministering to 886 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: our troops. In other words, this is not the place 887 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 1: for indoctrination. Go ahead and listen in doctrinate all you 888 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: want according to your religious beliefs at a church or 889 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: a synagogue. 890 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,320 Speaker 2: That's kind of goes with the territory. 891 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: But that's not what you're supposed to be doing with 892 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 1: the troops in the field. They're basically there to help them, 893 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: ask them what they need. Not Hey, by the way, 894 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: while we're talking, let me tell you about climate change 895 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: and transgenderism and all that other stuff. And I think 896 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: that this is it's sad, you know, it's one thing. 897 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: It's annoying for you and me to have that happen 898 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 1: to us. But imagine, you know, you're dealing with life 899 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,359 Speaker 1: and death situations and somebody there and you just want 900 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 1: to basically talk to talk about your fears, talk about 901 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: faith and all that kind of up, and the clergyman 902 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 1: across the way from you was telling you, you know, 903 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:04,959 Speaker 1: you need to believe in climate change. 904 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it's sick. 905 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 11: Yeah, And it wasn't the original attention all along. I 906 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 11: mean when George Washington was around, which feels like a 907 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 11: very long time ago, which I guess it was. Technically 908 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 11: they were there, the chaplains were there to minister to 909 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 11: those who wanted to be ministered too. I mean, that 910 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 11: was the original intention, and also to minister to those 911 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 11: who were sick and dying at the time. And we've 912 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 11: gotten far far away from the original intention. WHI shouldn't 913 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,720 Speaker 11: surprise us because look how far away we've gotten from 914 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 11: the founder's original intention in this country anyhow, in terms 915 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 11: of what government's role should be. 916 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 2: So I guess it shouldn't surprise us. 917 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:49,320 Speaker 11: But as it relates to climate change and environmentalism and 918 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 11: just all of the New Age stuff, that also shouldn't 919 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 11: surprise us because look at the state of our churches 920 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 11: and synagogues to a degree, especially in the Reformed area. 921 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 11: I mean, I believe Jake and correct me if I'm wrong, 922 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 11: but it seems to me like they track perfectly, well, imperfectly, 923 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 11: I should say, But it makes sense why it's going on. 924 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 2: In the military. 925 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 11: We've had this spiritual handbook for so long that Heigsay 926 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 11: wants to get rid of because that's the way our 927 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,320 Speaker 11: culture has been going into churches and synagogues here in America. 928 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you know, you're dead on about this. 929 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:25,120 Speaker 2: This and this is nothing new. 930 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 1: The Khneka holiday, which is going on right now, is 931 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,880 Speaker 1: all about how the Jews at the time in Israel 932 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 1: were being seduced by the political and cultural moras at 933 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: the time, Hellenism to be specific, and how listen, some 934 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 1: of those things work with Judaism and some of them don't. 935 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: But they were literally trying to get the fads of 936 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:46,799 Speaker 1: the day and turn them into Jewish life. Boy, does 937 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:49,279 Speaker 1: that sound similar to trying to make climate change and 938 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,799 Speaker 1: transgenderism part of your religious practice. Sometimes it just doesn't work, 939 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 1: you know, one thing, Keep them separate, all right? 940 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,320 Speaker 2: The big show is coming up next. I'll see you 941 00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 2: tomorrow here it's
