1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,040 Speaker 1: The Team forty seven podcast is sponsored by Good Ranchers 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: Making the American Farm Strong Again. Team forty seven with 3 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck starts now the back and forth already 4 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: on the economy today, because well, look at effects all 5 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: of us, and I get it. You know, my wife's 6 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: family has chickens in the backyard. It's funny. Who would 7 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:30,319 Speaker 1: have thought that chickens now by laying eggs. It's like 8 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: they're laying golden eggs. Because eggs are very expensive. They've 9 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: gone up substantially. But you know who do well. Part 10 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: of this is that they had to kill so many 11 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I shouldn't say had to. They chose to 12 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,160 Speaker 1: kill so many chickens because of bird flu. That's part 13 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: one of why there's been a run up in prices. 14 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 1: We've seen a run up in prices for staples, for 15 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: food goods going back for years in the Biden administration. Remember, 16 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: just by way of context, the worst inflation in fourteen 17 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: key years occurred on Joe Biden's watch and began when 18 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: he took office. I think we can often forget about 19 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: this right because Trump's come in and it's like, oh, 20 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: look at the look at the price of eggs. Trump's 21 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: been in office thirty days, and yes, the price of 22 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: eggs is coming down. I'm going to get to some 23 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 1: of the good economic news today because you'll notice they're 24 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: going to find something else to freak out about because 25 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: things I'm not saying we're out of the woods. You know, 26 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: you could have a big stock market drop next week. 27 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: But there are plenty of data points to look at 28 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: here to suggest that everything is going to be just fine. 29 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: But Biden had the worst inflation in forty years and 30 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: it started right when he came into office because he 31 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: spent trillions of dollars completely unnecessarily, and as we've seen 32 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: now in part because of the work of Doge, some 33 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: of this money just gets handed out to left wing 34 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,559 Speaker 1: interest groups that are NGOs really in name only because 35 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: their government funded non government organizations. And there's all this money, 36 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: the green energy slush fund that has been part of 37 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: the Biden spending spree, and including these so called Inflation 38 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: Reduction Act which did not at all reduce inflation. It 39 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: didn't even really address inflation, and if it did, it 40 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,119 Speaker 1: made it worse, or rather, in the ways that it did, 41 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: it made it worse. Now we are starting to see 42 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: that the Trump plan is going to require fixing some things. 43 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: And you know, when you go into an old house 44 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: and you know you're kicking at the wooden boards and 45 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: you're checking out, you know you got to fix a 46 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: upper and some aspects certainly of our government but also 47 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: of our spending. You're in a unique fixer upper opportunity 48 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: when you start to look at the different pieces. Sometimes 49 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: you're going to pull a board off the wall and 50 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: maybe a piece of the ceiling comes down. Stuff is 51 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 1: going to happen a little bit, But the fundamental structure 52 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: is sound, and the fundamental approach of Trump and his 53 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: team is the right one. And here here first of all, 54 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: Trump is talking of since I talked, I spoke about 55 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: the price of eggs, and now you know, I don't 56 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: have a yard here in Miami, and I do wish 57 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: that I had a yard, because well, one I would 58 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: convince my wife that a pet fox, which you can 59 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: legally have in Florida if you get a certain license, 60 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: would be really cool. But put that aside. Maybe that's 61 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: just a weird thing with me having chickens and even ducks. 62 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: I hear ducks are great for the laying of eggs. 63 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 1: Save yourself a bunch of money. Eggs at my local. Uh, 64 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: first of all, I've gone in there. There's been basically 65 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: no eggs some days. So that's a thing. But that's 66 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: a that's a supply shortage, in large part caused by 67 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: the killing of all the the you know, euthanizing of 68 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: chickens to prevent the bird flu thing, which I think 69 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: was excessive. But anyway, here's Trump, this is cut five 70 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: talking about how look everybody, the things are happening. You 71 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: gotta just be patient. Don't let the don't let the 72 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: anti Trump Trump Derange media get you all play five. 73 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: But we didn't have these problems. I had no inflation. 74 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 2: I had a great economy. He gave you high prices. 75 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: You couldn't buy bacon, you couldn't buy anything. And also 76 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 2: I inherited a situation with eggs. The price of eggs 77 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: was through the roof. 78 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: Well, now the price of eggs has come down a lot. 79 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 2: Interest rates have come down, gasoline prices. 80 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: Have come down. 81 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: It's all coming down. It's all a beautiful thing. 82 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 3: I can do it the right way of the wrong way. 83 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 3: We're doing it the right way. 84 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: And I have tremendous confidence in this country and the 85 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: people of this country tremendous coup, much more so than 86 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 2: if I sat back for four years and had a 87 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 2: good time in the Ovlope. 88 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 1: Just remember this. There are some fundamental and obvious truths 89 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: about our situation right now. And Trump was getting to 90 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: some of this in that sound bite. Yes, price of 91 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: eggs coming down a little bit, still needs to come 92 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: down more, But we know that there's an artificial specifically 93 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: with eggs, there's an artificial reason for why the price 94 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: has been so high. You can't kill all the chickens 95 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: and wonder where the eggs are. Pretty straightforward. But the 96 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: fundament men recognition that we should all remember is that 97 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is better at this than the people who 98 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: used to be in charge until a minute ago. And 99 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: then the people who are criticizing him, what do they 100 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: know about any of this? What do these journals know 101 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: about supply and demand and how to actually get the 102 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: American economy up and running. Trump has done it. He 103 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: has done this successfully. He has a track record. He 104 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: has been in the big chair before, so all this 105 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: stuff and I see, I know, I wouldn't say conservatives 106 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: or people on the right are they're not panicking about 107 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: the Libs panic because it's Trump arrangement, so that they 108 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: look for opportunities to panic. You know, everything is, oh, 109 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: did I leave the gas on? Is the house going 110 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: to explode? They're constantly freaking out because that's who they are. 111 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: But on our side, yeah, the market drops a little bit. Yeah, 112 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: there's some stuff back and forth on the tariffs, but 113 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: the conversation about tariffs, you have to keep in mind 114 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: it changes within a twenty four hour news cycle. Okay, 115 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: well we're gonna we're gonna delay that one. Okay, we're 116 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: gonna drop this one down a little bit. You know, 117 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: there's plenty of stuff that needs to happen that Trump 118 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: is doing that we need to let play out a 119 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: little bit. So the double tariff on Canadian medals, for example, 120 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: has been called off by Trump, and people say, oh, 121 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: this is so abrupt that how can markets react? He 122 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: is trying to negotiate with sovereign governments over trade agreements. 123 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: There's going to be some stop and start this. You know, 124 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,679 Speaker 1: we've seen Trump before, right, and we've seen him before 125 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: on the economy when he's doing this stuff. And I 126 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: keep reminding everybody who will listen to me, you know, 127 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: I knew a couple of people who were true trade 128 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: nerds in the best sense in DC. I used to 129 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: have them on my old radio show back in the day. 130 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: I knew a couple of people who were really good 131 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: on trade. They're the only ones early on in Trump 132 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen who were saying to me, yack, yeah, actually, 133 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: we need to do something about China's trade barriers. We 134 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: shouldn't just sit here and take it. Yeah, we need 135 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: to do something to update the US Mexico Canada agreement. 136 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: We shouldn't just sit here and take it. And then 137 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: there's the same thing, Oh my gosh, what's Trump doing 138 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: is crazy? You know it's no, it's all all within 139 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: his skill set, his strategy, and the people he has 140 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: in charge. Now, look, I don't want to be fatalistic 141 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: about this, but when you look at Trump, you look 142 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: at Elon Musk. If they can't fix this, nobody can. 143 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: I hate to you know, in those jobs, in these roles. 144 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: If Trump can't fix this, if Elon can't give Trump 145 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: the advice necessary to have him take the actions to 146 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: pair things back with the spending and all the mission 147 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: that Doge has, we're throwing our best at it right now. Okay, 148 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: the electorate sent us their best this time, and everyone 149 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: needs to just either let the things happen here that 150 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: are happening. Everything that is being done is one stuff 151 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: that Trump talked about doing, whether it's the border or 152 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: it's ending the Ukraine war with a ceasefire. And he's 153 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: taking all of these actions. But it's just so funny 154 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: to me to see that. It's like all contexts with 155 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,119 Speaker 1: the media has gone, Oh my gosh, you know things 156 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: were what things were so good before under Biden the 157 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: puppet dementia patient. You got to be kidding me, right, 158 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: what is it? The only job Joe Biden knows how 159 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: to create was a corrupt pay to play for hunter. 160 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: All right, he has no idea what's going on, truly 161 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: had no idea what's going on. Look at the auto 162 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: pen stuff that's being talked about now. And now we 163 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 1: have a team that understands capitalism, understands markets, understands business. 164 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: So don't don't let them start to get into your 165 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: head because you know, now they start to look at 166 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 1: the numbers. Now they start to pretend that they're objective 167 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: reporters again in the media. Oh, it's not that I 168 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: hate Trump. It's that I'm I'm worried about the stock 169 00:08:55,200 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: market suddenly. Okay, well, here you go, here's CNN. This 170 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: has cut four saying that, you know what, there's actually 171 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: some good news in the economy this week on some 172 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: things that really matter. Play it. 173 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 3: Finally we have some good news on the economy and 174 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 3: really the number one issue for many Americans the cost 175 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 3: of living. So we just learned that consumer prices in 176 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 3: February increased by two point eight percent year over year 177 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 3: zero point two percent month over month. Both of these 178 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 3: figures were a step in the right direction, and both 179 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 3: were better than expected. So this is definitely very encouraging 180 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 3: to see because it's going to I think relieve some 181 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 3: fears that inflation was perhaps reaccelerating, because this actually breaks 182 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 3: a streak of four straight months where I think you 183 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: could see it on the chart all the way to 184 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 3: the right, where the inflation rate was going in the 185 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 3: wrong direction. Rate it was going higher and higher. Finally 186 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 3: we're seeing it dip. 187 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: Finally. Trump hasn't even been an office two months. Keep 188 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 1: that in mind. Now, I know they're going back even before, 189 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: but this, this is the data now that we're seeing. 190 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: And remember the Bide data was suspiciously manipulated so that 191 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: the jobs numbers were always higher than they actually were. 192 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: That the recession that happened under Biden two quarters of 193 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: negative GDP growth. Oh, but is that really a recession. 194 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: Let's change the definition of recession. Don't forget what they 195 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: have done to try to do this perception management, operation 196 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: information operation psyop on the economy because they know that 197 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: more than anything else, that drives votes, that drives power 198 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: come election time, so they'll say whatever they have to 199 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: say about it. Trump is in charge, His team is awesome, 200 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: They're doing good things. They know what they're doing. If 201 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: I feel like things are going off the rails, or 202 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: I'll tell you, and the people that are around Trump 203 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: who listen to this show, maybe they'll pass that along. 204 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: I've seen none of that. I've seen none of that. 205 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: All I see is Trump doing what Trump does. And 206 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: this week, I think is a reminder to all of 207 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: us that the same media that told you that Trump 208 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: should go to prison for the rest of his life 209 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: for whatever the nonsense case was, there are four different ones. 210 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: Is now the media is saying, oh, can he really 211 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 1: bring down inflation? What they don't want you to think 212 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: about us how all of this is connected. What causes inflation? 213 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: Monetary supply, government spending, what causes that government doing dumb things? 214 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: Biden the Democrats by addressing that, by having those do 215 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: what it does, Guess what, it addresses the inflation problem. 216 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: Democrats think you can mandate lower prices because I say so, 217 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: because they fundamentally want to pretend we live in a 218 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,359 Speaker 1: different world than we do, and that they can artificially 219 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: suspend the laws of supply and demand. They can't. Trump 220 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: knows that you want to address inflation. That's what Trump 221 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: is doing, That's what Elon is doing. That's what's going 222 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: on right now. So just you know, tell them to 223 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: just stuff it. You've had enough of the noise. Oh 224 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: my gosh, the recession, depression Trump please Okay, Biden didn't 225 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: even know what year it was and he was a 226 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: commander in chief and the economy didn't collapse. I think 227 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 1: we're gonna be okay. You're listening to Team forty seven 228 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 1: with Clay and Buck. We're joined by White House Deputy 229 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: Press Secretary Anna Kelly. 230 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 4: Anna. 231 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: Welcome to the program. Thanks for being here with us. 232 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 4: Thanks so much. Fuck, I'm so excited to be here. 233 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 4: And that's a great song you had on in the break, 234 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 4: by the way, I really enjoyed that. 235 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: Well, thank you very much. We try to have the 236 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: good tunes, the good tunes flowing. So a lot going 237 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 1: on this week and a lot of back and forth. Already, 238 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: Let's start with the economy tariff situation. What should everybody know? 239 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: Because if you you know, when I go to the gym, 240 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: for example, they have these different channels on. They do 241 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: have Fox on in the gym down here because I'm 242 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: in South Florida, but a lot of like the financial channels, 243 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: and it almost feels like they want everybody to panic 244 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: every time the president and speaks the word tariff. What 245 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: should everyone know about the plan here and where we're 246 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: trying to go? 247 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I will share there are three goals for 248 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 4: these cariffs right. Number one is restrictions, so we are 249 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 4: helping our domestic industries by pushing these exports, making sure 250 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 4: that American companies can send made in America goods all 251 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 4: around the world, making sure we're getting revenue from the 252 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 4: things we import. And then most importantly is reciprocity. So 253 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 4: President Trump, finally after decades, not just the past four years, 254 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 4: especially the past four years, but really decades of unfair 255 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 4: trading practices that have long took advantage of American farmers 256 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 4: and workers. President Trump is finally saying, look, American farmers, workers, 257 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 4: manufacturers deserve a level playing field. So these tariffs are 258 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 4: finally making sure that we are leveling the playing field, 259 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 4: enacting the same tariffs that these countries around the world 260 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 4: have imposts on us for years. This makes common sense 261 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 4: and it makes sure that American farmers and workers are 262 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 4: able to send their goods around the world. And by 263 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 4: the way, those revenues are paying dividends. We had ten 264 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 4: thousand new manufacturing jobs last month. We have positive job 265 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 4: growth in the private sector. That's what the American people want. 266 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 4: That's what we want in this building is a strong 267 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 4: economy in the private sector that is benefiting from a 268 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 4: level playing field. 269 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: Finally, what also is is your what is the feeling 270 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: of the President and this White House on how to 271 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: handle the slew of these judicial universal injunctions that have 272 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: come down. I told everybody before you came on and 273 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: that the Biden administration had fewer of these against and 274 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: it did some very unconstitutional and just aggressive, and I 275 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: would offer unlawful things in the executive branch, but more 276 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: in one month for Trump than three years of Biden. 277 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: Is the strategy here just to take it to the 278 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: Supreme Court? Does the White House say that there may 279 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: be other options down down the road? What should we 280 00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: know about this? 281 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, yeah, here's what we know. You're exactly right. 282 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 4: There were fifteen efforts in February alone by these activist 283 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 4: judges to seize the president's power of specifically hiring and 284 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 4: firing from the executive branch. We in this building believe, 285 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 4: and I think the American people understand, that the president 286 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 4: has the authority to exercise the power of the executive branch. 287 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 4: That means hiring people, that means firing people, and ultimately 288 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 4: that means delivering on the American people's mandates to eliminate 289 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 4: wastefill spending, to shrink our federal workers, and ultimately make 290 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 4: our federal workforce more efficient. That is to the benefit 291 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 4: of Americans across the country who benefit from federal services. So, yes, 292 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 4: we have these activist judges enacting these fifteen efforts to 293 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 4: crample down on the president's authority. We believe that is unjust. 294 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 4: We believe it is unconstitutional, and we will continue to 295 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 4: fight back against their efforts to seize the power of 296 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 4: the President of the United States to run his own 297 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 4: executive branch. 298 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: We're speaking to a deputy White House Press Secretary, Anna Kelly, 299 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: and CBS News reported this a day ago. Trump to 300 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: invoke Wartime Allien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight to 301 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: carry out deportations to Guantanamo. What can you tell us 302 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: about this? 303 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 4: Well, I won't get ahead of the president's buck, but 304 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 4: here is what I will say. I know there is 305 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 4: a lot of talk in the mainstream media about suddenly 306 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 4: they are concerned about mass deportations and the pace of that. 307 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 4: Guess what, we actually just found out recently that Biden 308 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 4: was fudging his numbers on these deportations. They were arresting 309 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 4: aliens and then letting them back into our country. That 310 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 4: is a universally unpopular policy. That is part of what 311 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 4: helps propel President Jumps to victory in November, because American 312 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 4: people do not want these migrant criminals invading our country. 313 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 4: Here's what we do, no buck, We made thirty two thousand, 314 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 4: over thirty two thousand enforcement arrest in the first fifty 315 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 4: days of the Trump administration. To put that in perspective, 316 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 4: we made thirty three thousand I did at large arrests 317 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 4: in the fiscal year twenty twenty four alone. So I 318 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 4: won't get ahead of presidents any Pacific policies that he 319 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 4: plans to impose. But we know that the President is 320 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 4: delivering on his promise to annask the largest mass deportation 321 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 4: of migrant criminals in American history to stop the invasion. Because, 322 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 4: by the way, fourteen thousand of those we've arrested so 323 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 4: far convicted criminals, almost ten thousand have pending criminal charges. 324 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 4: So President Trump is doing what he promised. He is 325 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 4: getting justice for innocent Americans like Lake and Riley, who 326 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 4: like Jocelyn Nunger, whose lives were brutally taken and unjustly 327 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 4: taken by migrant criminals who should have never been in 328 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 4: this country in the first place. 329 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,239 Speaker 1: And I've seen some early data on this, and it's 330 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: actually it actually comes from the Mexican government side of 331 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: the border. But we know that official numbers already for 332 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: illegal migrant crossings are way down. I think ninety five 333 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: percent plus is where they are. But you know, in 334 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: a way that shows that the President is keeping his 335 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 1: promise to secure the border, and also that the previous 336 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: administration intentionally allowed the border to be open for anybody 337 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: to cross over, and that thankfully has come to an end. 338 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,959 Speaker 1: Do we have data yet or can you tell us 339 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: when we will? 340 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 4: Though? 341 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: On the plummeting fentanyl seizures at the border as well, 342 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: because I know that there's the government of Mexico has 343 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: been claiming that fentanyl seizures are also way down on 344 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: their end of things, right, So do we have some 345 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: data on the drug numbers coming down as well? 346 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 4: Well? So CBT customers and Border Patrol regularly puts out 347 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 4: these numbers. Unfortunately I don't have them in front of me, 348 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 4: but I'm will be sure to follow up and make 349 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 4: sure that you can share those with our listeners. But 350 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 4: I will say, you know, the President has vastly different 351 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 4: messaging to your point about encounters at the southern border. 352 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 4: I remember, I'm sure you remember your listeners, remember when 353 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 4: migrants for coming into the border in early twenty twenty one, 354 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,679 Speaker 4: saying thank you Joe Biden for this open border, for 355 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 4: with a stroke of his pen, ondoing all the border 356 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 4: security measures that President Trump took in his first term. 357 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 4: President Trump is finally sending the message to migrant criminals 358 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,919 Speaker 4: around the world saying do not come here. He is 359 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 4: telling migrant criminals who already are in the country to 360 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 4: self support otherwise we will find you and we will 361 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 4: support you. The messaging is vastly different, and I think 362 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 4: that is why you see those vastly different numbers. And 363 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 4: we're also holding the countries like Mexico and Canada accountable 364 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 4: for the influx of sentinel that has come into our 365 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 4: country killing Americans. That's part of the terribles as well. 366 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 4: So all in all, President Trump is finally sending the message, 367 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 4: after four years of failure under Joe Biden, that enough 368 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 4: is enough. We will not accept these migrant criminals entering 369 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 4: our country killing Americans. We also won't accept this influx 370 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 4: of sentinel that is also destroying families across the country. 371 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: Can you tell us about this news story. I think 372 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: it was Politico that put it out initially about the 373 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: clearing out of classified by USAID and also the status 374 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: of the USAID building. I think you had to do 375 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: a little cleanup on Aisle fake news on that one 376 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: for Politico and others what actually happened there. 377 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, so there was a so as you know, I'm 378 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 4: sure your listeners know USCID that building is soon to 379 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 4: be occupied by Customs and Border Patrol thankfully, so the 380 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 4: USCID employees were naturally clearing out the building, vacating the building, 381 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 4: and undergoing a very normal process to dispose of classified documents. 382 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 4: And by the way, as I said in my expost, 383 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 4: which I'm sure is what you're pointing out, many of 384 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 4: these were courtesy copies, So that means these are documents 385 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 4: that originated from other agencies and were sent to USAID 386 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 4: by a courtesy And by the way, I'll add, I 387 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 4: want to shout out fake news NBC. They actually reached 388 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 4: out to me at three fifteen for their story on this, 389 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 4: published at three sixteen, and then we had to walk 390 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 4: or clean up all this fake news that was spreading 391 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 4: around and sewing chaos really across the country. But this 392 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 4: was a totally normal process meant to dispose of classic 393 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 4: copies of classified documents that already existed, by the way, 394 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 4: electronically as well in secure computer systems. Total fake news out. 395 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 1: Do you feel like the media is trying to be 396 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: a little bit less rab it in their anti trumpsm 397 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: In terms of the media that's covering this White House 398 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: day in and day out. Have you have you started 399 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: to see perhaps just an attempt to be more, if 400 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: not even handed, at least more professional in how they 401 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: approach this or are things still pretty rough for those 402 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: who are clearly opposing the president with their coverage? 403 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 4: You know, Buck, I don't think they know what to 404 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 4: do with themselves, because we are having fun. Truly, we 405 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 4: are winning every single day, and I think they do acknowledge, 406 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 4: you know, the fact that President Trump not only won 407 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 4: the election by a landslide, but he won the popular vote. 408 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 4: He is implementing policies that the American people soundly support, 409 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 4: and so they can try, they can push their fake 410 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 4: news narratives, they can try and poke hold and what 411 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 4: he's doing. But guess what the approval is on our side. 412 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 4: The American people overwhelmingly support his agenda. They see that 413 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 4: he has delivered on the promises he made on the 414 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 4: campaign trail, to restore our economy, to secure the southern border, 415 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 4: to restore our standing on the world stage. This is 416 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 4: what the American people want. He is delivering on his promises, 417 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 4: and I think that fake news don't know what to 418 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 4: do with it. 419 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: Remarkable. How is it to be right in the center 420 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: of center of all the action here for a presidency 421 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 1: that is already transformational one month and I know you're 422 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: super busy and you say you're having fun. Must be 423 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 1: exciting stuff. 424 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 4: It is so exciting. And again, we're winning every single 425 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 4: day and we're having so much fun that fake news 426 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 4: don't know what they know. They don't know how to 427 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 4: cover it because they're not used to actually covering a 428 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 4: president who actually does think. Every single day, he is 429 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 4: signing more executive orders than any other president at this 430 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 4: point in his first or his tecond term. He is 431 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 4: delivering on the promises he made and it's really fun. 432 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 4: I'm not sure if you knew this that I was 433 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 4: involved in the campaign as well, and so I was 434 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 4: able to be part of all these promises being made, 435 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 4: watching the enthusiasm among all these Americans across the country 436 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 4: who are so excited to finally see change after four 437 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 4: years of failure, and it's extremely exciting to be part 438 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 4: of the process in really helping correct all the mistakes 439 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 4: over the past four years. 440 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: White House deput Press Secretary Anna Kelly come back again soon. 441 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for being here and keep up 442 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: the great work. 443 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 4: Thanks so much, buss talk soon.
