Speaker 2: fort filter. These people are domestic terrorists and unapologetic.

13
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: We're here to take a stand for God and country.

14
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: Let's feel goodness. America's Voice Live starts now.

15
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 2: And welcome to America's Voice Live. I'm Steve Gurer. It

16
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 2: is the twenty eighth of October. It's Tuesday. Thank you

17
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: for being here, and thank you for joining us here today.

18
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 2: It's Halloween, oor Hallow's Eve as it's known, and given

19
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 2: the frights and scares of the program, we you know,

20
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: I think I'm in the wrong place, aren't I.

21
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 1: That's right, I am. We'll get right to it.

22
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: Here are the three big things you need to know

23
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: this hour, for this Tuesday, the twentieth of October, the

24
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: government shut down drags honist, Chuck Schumer and far left

25
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 2: Democrats put illegal aliens ahead of federal workers, all while

26
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 2: President Trump is touring Asians securing even more investments for America.

27
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: I'm bringing on Congressman Julia Letlow to discuss that. Also,

28
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 2: I tay a look at the markets after a record

29
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: breaking day on Monday, great numbers amid President Trump's tour

30
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 2: in Asia, where he has already secured a five hundred

31
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 2: and fifty billion dollar investment pledge from Japan. That I'll

32
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 2: discuss and then later. Christian communities in Nigeria face ongoing

33
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 2: brutal attacks with the Filani herdsman and Jihadis targeting the faithful.

34
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: Senator Ted Cruz now pushing to design Nigeria as a

35
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 2: country of particular concern from religious freedom violations. All that

36
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: and more coming away, But first I'd like to circle

37
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: back to the ongoing Schumer shutdown.

38
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,279
Speaker 1: We are now in day twenty eight. If the government

39
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: shut down.

40
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: And for a half million government workers or more, that

41
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 2: means they've missed their first paycheck. The second paycheck is

42
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 2: about to be missed. It's the Schumer shutdown. Democrats refusing

43
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 2: to open the government, refusing to support a clean continuing resolution,

44
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: something they've always supported before.

45
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: Always speaking, Mike.

46
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: Johnson says, it's ridiculous how stubborn the left wing of

47
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: Congress is acting at the expense on the entire country.

48
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 5: Listen, see, they've made an evaluation that they have to

49
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 5: appease the Marxist base, that they're so concerned that they'll

50
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 5: lose their jobs if they don't appease the far left

51
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 5: in their party. And they sat in a back room

52
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 5: and they made the calculation that they would rather shut

53
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 5: the government down and impose all this pain on the

54
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 5: American people because they believe the Marxists, the far left

55
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 5: in the base are more active than hard working Americans

56
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 5: people who go vote, And so they made the calculation

57
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 5: that it's worth it to them. Every day gets better

58
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 5: for us. We'll use the pain as leverage for what

59
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 5: to prove to the far left base that they won't

60
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 5: give in, that they'll fight Trump and fight their Republicans.

61
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 5: What are they fighting. It's a clean cr It's the

62
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 5: same level of funding that they have voted for as

63
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 5: recently as earlier this year. They are Biden level policies

64
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 5: and spending.

65
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: This is not some Republican wish list. We don't have

66
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 1: any of.

67
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 5: Our priorities in this at all. It's the Democrat's own product.

68
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 5: But they have decided to flip the script this time

69
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 5: because they were getting too much heat from the far left.

70
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: Too much heat from the far left.

71
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 2: We're being held hostage by the far left in the country,

72
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 2: and like Johnson says, not even for anything we want,

73
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: and I say we because this affects us all. It

74
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 2: affects the families who won't receive any snap benefits next month.

75
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: And whether or not you think we should cut the

76
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: bloat and food assistance programs, some people really do need

77
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: the help they do.

78
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: It affects the food we eat.

79
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 2: The FDA is responsible for quality and safety, and they've

80
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: got thousands of people furloughed right now. It affects the

81
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: flights you want to take. We're already seeing massive delays

82
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 2: at some airports. It's inconsistent, but most of all, it's

83
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: gone very tangible suffering for the million or so workers

84
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 2: who are going without even while some of them show

85
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: up for work because they have to.

86
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: And now's as good a time as thatdy to remind

87
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: everyone that.

88
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: While air traffic controllers are showing up without paying members

89
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: of Congress sitting on their asses delivering sound bites while

90
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 2: they collect their paychecks without pause.

91
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: I've got an idea. I think you'll like it.

92
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 2: How about while government is shut down, none of us

93
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: pay taxes and they don't get paid. I don't get

94
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 2: them to a solution real fast, I bet, And I

95
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 2: know I pointed this out yesterday, but it's worth repeating.

96
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 2: The Democrats just view all the suffering as a tool

97
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 2: for furthering the agenda, their far left agenda.

98
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: Democrats Chuck Schumer.

99
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: Told a reporter that every day of the shutdown is

100
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: better for Democrats. When asked about that assinine comment, he

101
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 2: just doubled down on the belief that it makes his

102
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: party look better.

103
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: Does it listens?

104
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 6: Talk to us about your comments last week in an

105
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 6: interview where he sit in every day, and it's better worse.

106
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 7: The Republicans have seized on that be explain to the comment.

107
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 8: Look, every day, more and more Americans see how bad

108
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 8: this health crisis is, as they get their notices, as

109
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 8: they hear all about it, and every day they are

110
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 8: seeing more and more that Democrats are on their side,

111
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 8: fighting for what they believe is.

112
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, it gets even worse.

113
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: House Minority Web Democrat Catherine Clark called the suffering of

114
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: millions of Americans leverage.

115
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: I know you've seen this before, but it's worth repeating here.

116
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 9: She is, I mean, shutdowns are terrible, and of course

117
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 9: there will be, you know, families that are going to suffer.

118
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 9: We take that responsibility very seriously. But it is one

119
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 9: of the few leverage times we.

120
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:55,799
Speaker 2: Have so seriously that she will not support the Senate

121
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 2: opening the government. Democrats are just really revealing themselves to

122
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 2: be villains at all of this, aren't they.

123
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at that leverage, shall we.

124
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: Here are a few workers who are going without because

125
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 2: of the Democrat's refusal to open the government.

126
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 7: Listen, my husband and myself are both controllers and both

127
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 7: completely rely on the government being funded to be able

128
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 7: to provide for our three children. I'll need to reschedule

129
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 7: a surgery I've been waiting since March of this year

130
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 7: to do.

131
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 3: As a single dad with two kids, I do live

132
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 3: paycheck to paycheck.

133
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 10: How am I going to pay for groceries for my family?

134
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 10: How am I going to feed my family? How am

135
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 10: I going to pay my mortgage? To keep a roof

136
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 10: over my family's head. How am I going to pay

137
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 10: for childcare for people to watch my kids?

138
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 3: My wife and I had our first child four months ago.

139
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 3: I had started doing like other colleagues, doing door dash.

140
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: You know we're eating.

141
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 3: I was some flex just to make sure had some

142
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 3: in coming in the mont to buy groceries, diapers, and lips.

143
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: I've had to pick up a second job just to

144
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: make sure they were going to make it.

145
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 11: To me, how long can we survive until we have

146
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 11: to pick up a second job on top of working

147
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 11: six days a week untaped?

148
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, these are the stories that the pressure should be elevating,

149
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 2: talking about amplifying out their petty complaints over a ballroom

150
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 2: renovation being paid for with private money. Of course, some

151
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: of the most heart wrenching stories come from those who

152
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 2: have been forced to turn to food banks, which, by

153
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 2: the way, is a testament to the resilience of American

154
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 2: charity work.

155
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: At least listen to this. We gonna have enough for everybody.

156
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: They're sending another truck.

157
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 12: With the government shutdown entering week four and no end.

158
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: In sight, just give us two boxes and a pizza.

159
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 12: For federal workers. The paychecks have stopped, but they still

160
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 12: have families to feed.

161
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: You hope it helps you.

162
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 12: The Capital Area Food Bank is now doing food giveaways

163
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 12: for federal workers here at this site in Hyattsville. Many

164
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 12: folks asked that we not show their faces, but told

165
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 12: us times have been tough, not fair.

166
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 13: That the federal employees and military members are being used

167
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 13: as ponds in whatever this is.

168
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 2: And that's exactly what these workers are being turned into ponds.

169
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 2: And this is not a game that anyone wants to play,

170
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: except apparently Democrat politicians. How about does mom who's having

171
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 2: to hide her despair from her own daughter listen to this?

172
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 14: Federal workers leading in long lines at this food bank

173
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 14: in southern Maryland.

174
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 9: I would have been there for in a million years

175
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 9: that I would have been in this position to have

176
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 9: to go to a food bank.

177
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 14: Denise Blake says she drove over an hour to get here.

178
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 14: When she finally arrived, they'd run out of food.

179
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 6: Do you have a cart ready for you? Off front?

180
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 14: Fortunately she did not leave empty handed, but she still

181
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 14: faces the harsh reality of not knowing how she's going

182
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 14: to beat her family while she's not getting paid during

183
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 14: the government's shutdown.

184
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 11: I don't want my daughter to send me Kriyath.

185
00:08:58,360 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the point has been made.

186
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: These people are getting pay stubs with a fat and

187
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 2: zero on them. Many of them will still have it

188
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 2: to show up to work because if they don't, they'll

189
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 2: lose their jobs.

190
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: Remarkable, isn't it.

191
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 2: Or Democrats continue to stone wall and behalf illegal aliens

192
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 2: who want free healthcare in the left wing factions of

193
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 2: the party who care more about that than the Americans

194
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 2: are actually contributing to society every single day. And let's

195
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,719
Speaker 2: be clear, this is just another attack on America first priorities,

196
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 2: because at the end of the day, President Trump is

197
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 2: fighting for is better healthcare for American citizens by cutting

198
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 2: out the waste, fraud, and abuse the Democrats want to

199
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 2: put back in all of it.

200
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: Here's more the Democrats.

201
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 15: You just do a simple extension. That's the best way.

202
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 15: The Democrats are holding it up. They want one point

203
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 15: five trillion dollars from people that came out of prisons

204
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 15: or illegal aliens that come into our country. And we

205
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 15: don't want to do that because that will help really

206
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 15: hurt the healthcare that we have in our country. And frankly,

207
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 15: you would like to see better healthcare, period.

208
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: We're not looking to do that.

209
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 15: The Democrats can solve that problem with air traffic control,

210
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 15: will they have to do saying the country's open, we

211
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 15: only need five votes. The Republicans are with us. We

212
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 15: really need five montes. So let's see what happens. I

213
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:21,359
Speaker 15: would imagine that gets taken care of, not only the controllers,

214
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 15: what other people do.

215
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 2: Like I said yesterday, I've I'm saying from the beginning

216
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 2: for twenty eight days now. At the heart of it all,

217
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 2: this is a Democrat created problem. They can say otherwise,

218
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 2: but the truth is not on their side. The Affordable

219
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: Care Act Obamacare is a broken system that is once

220
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 2: again failing Americans and Democrats fighting to keep it broken.

221
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: But why now?

222
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 2: Why put up this fight now over a clean continuing

223
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 2: resolution the Democrats have always argued should be pushed through.

224
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 2: It comes back to polling. How the Democrats want to

225
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 2: be perceived.

226
00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: Secretary Scott Bessant points this out in this comment is

227
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: trading off his poles.

228
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 16: What's different than when he passed the clean CR in

229
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 16: the spring.

230
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: It's his polls.

231
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 16: You know, we're the whole country's being held captive to

232
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 16: AOC's polls. But let's look at the numbers, it's fifty

233
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 16: two to three. Fifty two Republicans have voted. I believe

234
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 16: it's eleven times to reopen the government. Three Democrats have

235
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 16: And right here, right now, I would urge moderate Democratic

236
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 16: senators to come across the aisle reopening the government because

237
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 16: I'll tell you, we're starting to eat in the muscle here.

238
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 16: This is starting to affect travel, is starting to affect

239
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,239
Speaker 16: the economy, and you know this is kixotic.

240
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can hear the NBC hosts trying to quickly

241
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 2: wrap up because the secretary was just making too much sense.

242
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 1: She didn't like it.

243
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: But the rest of the American public, outside the fire

244
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 2: left and the chronically online, the rest of us get it.

245
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 2: Despite Schumer's believe that this is making them look better,

246
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 2: we see just how desperate and selfish politicians really are.

247
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 2: The only ones saving face of those moderates that Secretary

248
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 2: Besant was talking about, one of them being Senator John Fetterman.

249
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 2: That's right, John Fetterman, the one the guys is making

250
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 2: sense for the Democrats. Whoever would have thought that? Here

251
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 2: he has a message for his Democrat colleagues.

252
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: Listen.

253
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 17: Twenty three days, twelve votes, Center Federer and I have

254
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 17: both voted to open up the government. We agree on

255
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 17: that one hundred percent. It's really starting to hurt Pennsylvania.

256
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 17: In Pennsylvanians, air traffic controllers, border patrol.

257
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: And also two million recipients of SNAP.

258
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 17: We've got to get the government open. That's our main responsibility.

259
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 17: And I'd say that regardless of what parties in the majority.

260
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 18: So I think we both this. Our votes are about

261
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 18: country over party at this point. And now we have

262
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 18: two million Pennsylvanians that rely on SNAP.

263
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: That's gone to stop.

264
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 18: And now you can now stop, reopen this government and

265
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 18: have an earnest conversation about extending those text credits.

266
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: You know, I really, we.

267
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 18: Know we're going to participate in this process. That's why

268
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 18: we both vote to open up our government. We're in

269
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 18: a different party, we're on the same team for Pennsylvania

270
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 18: and our nation.

271
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 2: Sadly, it's a dying message country over party. But hopefully

272
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 2: Fetterman's stand might inspire a couple of his colleagues to

273
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 2: do the right thing to cross the aisle. They only

274
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 2: need five Democrats and adition what they had.

275
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: To make it happen.

276
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 2: I don't have a lot of hope and Democrats were

277
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: gaining their sanity.

278
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: But you never know.

279
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 2: This shut down we'll end one way or another, and

280
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 2: Democrats will only remember it as their great stand against

281
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 2: a president that the American people voted for overwhelmingly, but

282
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 2: who they hate, while the rest of America will remember

283
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 2: the food bank lines, the zero dollar paychecks, the canceled flights.

284
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 2: It's a lose lose for Democrats and for America. I

285
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 2: can assure you of that we must do better. Coming

286
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 2: up after the break, I'll bring on Congressman Julia Letlow

287
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 2: of Louisiana discuss multiple topics, including the ongoing discussion of

288
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 2: the government down, as well as President Trump's tour in

289
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 2: Asia and the deals that he's getting details.

290
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: Straight ahead, all right, welcome back to America's Voice Live.

291
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 2: I'd like to continue the discussion of the Democrat led

292
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 2: government shut down caused by Chuck Schumer as far left

293
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 2: posse who seem to care a lot more about illegal

294
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 2: aliens than they do about their own citizens. It's americans

295
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 2: employed by the federal government continue to suffer without a paycheck.

296
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 2: The Democrats show no sign of coming together as a

297
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: nation to reopen the government. Here with me to discuss this.

298
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 2: Congress Foman Julia Letlos. He represents Louisiana five in Congress. Julia,

299
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 2: thank you for being.

300
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 13: Here, Thank you for having me on.

301
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: Steve.

302
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about this. You've got people that

303
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 2: are going to miss their second paycheck. You've got people

304
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 2: that are doing things like door dash to try to

305
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 2: make ends meet. Because if you work for the TSA,

306
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 2: or an air traffic controller or a whole host of

307
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 2: other jobs, you can't not show up because they'll fire you.

308
00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 2: You're getting no paycheck, but you're required to work. Assertion

309
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 2: might be that maybe members of Congress shouldn't get paid

310
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 2: during the shutdown. What do you think of that?

311
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 13: I completely agree, and I've actually asked that my paycheck

312
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 13: be withheld. If we're talking about federal employees not receiving

313
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 13: their paycheck but being required to show up on the job,

314
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 13: I definitely should not receive a paycheck as well, and

315
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 13: that goes for every congress member. The onus of this

316
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 13: shutdown falls squarely on the shoulders of Democrats, the House

317
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 13: of Representatives.

318
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 6: We have done our jobs.

319
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 13: We did it twenty eight days ago when we passed

320
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 13: a clean CR and send it over to the Senate.

321
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 13: The Senate Democrats are holding our country hostage. My heart

322
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 13: goes out to those who are in need, those who

323
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 13: in my district, who I'm talking to on a daily basis,

324
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 13: who are terrified that they are not going to receive

325
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 13: their snap benefits, quick benefits. Those are real fears that

326
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 13: we are having real conversations with people in my own district.

327
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 13: That falls squarely on the show shoulders of the Democrats.

328
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 13: All they have to do is pass that clean ce

329
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 13: or reopen the government so we can get back to

330
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 13: work for the American people.

331
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

332
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 2: Whoever thought that John Fetterman, the Senator from Pennsylvania, would

333
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 2: be the voice of reason inside the Democrat Party. He's

334
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 2: voting to reopen the government every single time. You need

335
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 2: five more to join the group to get it to

336
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 2: sixty to get it passed. And yet here we are,

337
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 2: day twenty eight. I don't see an end in sight,

338
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 2: do you.

339
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 13: I hope there's an end in sight. People are depending

340
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 13: on it. I applaud a Senator Fetterman for doing the

341
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 13: right thing. I encourage, I strongly implore five more of

342
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 13: his colleagues to do the right thing, come over to

343
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 13: his side and reopen the government. We desperately need to

344
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 13: get back to work for the American people. Day twenty

345
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 13: eight is way too long. It is time for us

346
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 13: to go back to work.

347
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I lector shift gears now a little bit.

348
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 2: You're probably paying attention to Donald Trump touring Asia right now,

349
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: securing some big deals along the way in Malaysia.

350
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: Just got a five hundred and fifty billion dollars deal.

351
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: In Japan.

352
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 2: Apparently there could be a Ford f one to fifty

353
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 2: dealership there sometime soon. It's also a big important note

354
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 2: that they're going to be buying soybeans. We cannot be

355
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 2: so reliant on China to buy so many different things.

356
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 2: We have to cut that cord. I think President Trump

357
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 2: working actively to make sure we have other outlets, other markets,

358
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 2: not only for ag products, but for all sorts of products.

359
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:30,479
Speaker 1: That's a good thing, isn't it.

360
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 13: Absolutely Nobody does it better than President Trump. He truly

361
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 13: knows how to make those deals and impactful deals for

362
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 13: our country. You know, I tell all of my constituents

363
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 13: here just hang tight.

364
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 6: He is a master of the deal.

365
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 13: He knows what he's doing, and it will pay off

366
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 13: for the American people. My number one industry in Louisiana

367
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 13: is agriculture, and we're already seeing that play out and

368
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 13: comes true in my district alone. So could not be

369
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 13: proud of the world work that the president is doing

370
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 13: nationwide but also globally as well.

371
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

372
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and brokering peace deals along the way, getting a

373
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:14,120
Speaker 2: chance to witness Cambodi in Thailand signing another piece deal

374
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 2: that he had helped to broker. I mean, this is

375
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 2: a peace president, a prosperity president who's doing the work that.

376
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 1: Needs to be done.

377
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 2: And the Democrats want to talk about a ballroom. Seems

378
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 2: like an odd priority, doesn't it.

379
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 13: Absolutely, it's astounding to me that that is their number

380
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,239
Speaker 13: one complaint. There are so many wonderful things that the

381
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 13: President has been able to accomplish, and I know, as

382
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 13: a mom with a young son myself, no one wants

383
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 13: to see our young men have to go off to war.

384
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 13: This is a president who believes in peace through strength,

385
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 13: and he is showing that on the national and global stage.

386
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 13: For once, we are seen as powerful and strong the

387
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 13: way that America should be the greatest country in the

388
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 13: world world and we have the greatest leader leading it.

389
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 1: Now. I want to ask you about something else.

390
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 2: Several states now playing games with the redistricting, and I

391
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 2: don't know if it's really games. You have one hundred

392
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 2: and fifty five million Americans today that have zero representation

393
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 2: by Republicans in Congress, one hundred and fifty five million. Conversely,

394
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 2: there are only fifty five million Americans represented by Republicans alone.

395
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 2: So states like North Carolina and Indiana are stepping up.

396
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 2: Now Virginia is getting involved. But the real case comes

397
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 2: back to Louisiana, where the Supreme Court is evaluating a

398
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 2: case where Louisiana has filed suit to say, look, you

399
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 2: cannot dictate to us. We have to draw congressional districts

400
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 2: based on race. If that happens in Louisiana wins, which

401
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 2: I believe they will, that'll bring twelve seats roughly to

402
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 2: the Republicans. I think the Democrats are finding a losing

403
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 2: war here.

404
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts?

405
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 13: Yes, we are anxiously awaiting that ruling from the Supreme Court.

406
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 13: If it goes our way, it will stand reverberations across

407
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 13: this country that districts should not be drawn on race alone.

408
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 13: So we are all anxiously awaiting that ruling to see

409
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 13: how it will affect a Louisiana, but not only Louisiana,

410
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 13: a nationwide. So I agree with you that will be

411
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 13: a landmark case for the Supreme Court. And it all

412
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 13: started in Louisiana.

413
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll impact Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee. The list goes

414
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 2: on where they've been forced to create congressional districts based

415
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 2: solely on race. I think it's unconstitutional and the illegal,

416
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 2: But we'll see how the Supreme Court rules. But I

417
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 2: feel pretty confident about that last thing. You recently penned

418
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 2: a letter to the Secretary of Homeland Security Christy No,

419
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 2: I'm calling for a briefing regarding the participation. I'm an

420
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 2: illegal alien in your district who participated in the Hamas

421
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 2: led October seventh attack. I couldn't believe this when I

422
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 2: heard this story there it is this person was participating

423
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 2: as one of the terrorists murdering innocent people.

424
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: How did they end up in Louisiana. How did this happen?

425
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 13: That's exactly what we're trying to find out under this

426
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 13: prior administration. How someone who was part of the October

427
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 13: seventh attack at a part of Hamas ended up in

428
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 13: Louisiana is terrifying. It should be terrifying to all of

429
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 13: us nationwide. It definitely is in Louisiana. We are definitely

430
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 13: are My colleagues and I are seeking answers as to

431
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 13: how that happened. We're waiting to hear back from the Department.

432
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 13: I'll let you know what we find out.

433
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 1: Congre, someone greatly appreciates you being here. Is always nice

434
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: seeing you again.

435
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 2: A lot happening, and I'm sure we'll have updates on

436
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 2: all of it in the days to come.

437
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 1: Thank you sounds great. Thank you really appreciate it. All right.

438
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 2: Up after the break, I'll take a look at the

439
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 2: markets after our record breaking day yesterday with President Trump

440
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 2: on his agi A tour, He's already secured, as I mentioned,

441
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 2: five hundred and fifty billion dollars from Japan and more

442
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 2: one hundred billion from Westinghouse. The list goes on, details

443
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 2: coming up on America's Voice Live.

444
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: All right.

445
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 2: Not gonna kid you, It's gonna take some practice to

446
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,119
Speaker 2: get this right, so bear with me. Japan has a

447
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 2: new Prime Minister, sonay A taka Ichi.

448
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 1: I think that's pretty close.

449
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 2: Sonay A Takaichi, very conservative, focusing on eliminating immigration into

450
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 2: the nation of Japan.

451
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,239
Speaker 1: They never allowed much. She doesn't want any. She met

452
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 1: President Trump in.

453
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 2: Tokyo earlier this morning, praising the United States and signing

454
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 2: a deal to secure critical rare earth minerals.

455
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: It's a very big deal. If you didn't notice.

456
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 2: Yesterday, US stocks hit record prices across the Dow, the Nasdaq,

457
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 2: the S and P record numbers.

458
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: It's remarkable.

459
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 2: After President Trump and now stay positive trade negotiation with

460
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 2: China ahead of his meeting with Jijiping that's expected to

461
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 2: happen Thursday. The Dow rose more than three hundred points,

462
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 2: the S and P five hundred, jumped above sixty eight

463
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 2: hundred for the very first time, and Qualcom shares sorted

464
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 2: nearly twenty percent after announcing an acceleration of data center

465
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 2: chip production.

466
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it is remarkable.

467
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 2: All three major indices closed and record highs Friday as well.

468
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 2: It's one record after another of the Fed, by the way,

469
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,639
Speaker 2: expect to cut rates tomorrow, even though they don't have

470
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 2: the numbers on unemployment because the government's closed inflation is cooled.

471
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 2: They do know that a Schumer shut down to late

472
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 2: CPI report, though is Amazon announce fourteen thousand job cuts

473
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 2: and sky Dance planned layoffs.

474
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 1: Gold remains just below four.

475
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 2: Thousand dollars now and out. It's Bitcoin risen above one

476
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 2: hundred and fifteen thousand. It just depends on where you look.

477
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,199
Speaker 2: It depends on where you look. But the economy in

478
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,360
Speaker 2: general seems to be strong in many sectors, and if

479
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 2: you invest in different places, if you've got some diversity,

480
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 2: you're probably pretty well in slave.

481
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: But you never know, there could be a correction.

482
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 2: Here to discuss what this means for the American consumer

483
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 2: is Anthony Esposito, founder and CEO of Ascalon's sixth Capital Anthony,

484
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 2: thank you.

485
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 1: For being here, Thank you for having me.

486
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 2: All right, So, gold was soaring up to about forty

487
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 2: four and a half. It's cooled off by five hundred

488
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 2: dollars an ounce. But all the indices, the S and P,

489
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 2: the NASDAK, the now all soaring crypto, including bitcoin, has

490
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 2: come back from where it was. It was not all

491
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 2: the way back to one hundred and twenty five thousand

492
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 2: a coin.

493
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 1: But regardless where you look at the economy right now here.

494
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 2: In the United States, a lot of things look pretty strong.

495
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 2: What is your take?

496
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 19: So I think we're probably in the further innings of

497
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 19: the market's bull run. We had a little bit of

498
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 19: a disruption with that tariff conversation earlier in the year.

499
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 19: That was more of a shock than a bear market,

500
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,360
Speaker 19: and I think we continue to see that risk appetite grow,

501
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 19: so as the tensions on the trade front and China ease,

502
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 19: and as that fed conversation starts to look more and

503
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 19: more like there will be consecutive coming. You see capital

504
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 19: now start to come out of gold, which I think

505
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 19: is a temporary consolidation, even though it's been a pretty

506
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 19: dramatic sell off. I don't think that gold is done

507
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 19: with its run. But you see some juice come out

508
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 19: of gold, some flows come out of gold. You've seen

509
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 19: those head into the treasuries, which has brought rates down

510
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 19: on the ten year below four percent, which is what

511
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 19: we want to do. And you've seen the S and

512
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 19: P five hundred, for example. Equity markets continue to rally high,

513
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 19: at all time high. So we're seeing some shift in

514
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 19: assets and some movement from one class to another. Overall,

515
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 19: risk appetite is there. It is good. I find it

516
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 19: hard to believe that equity markets will fade heading into

517
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,239
Speaker 19: the end of the year. It's been a little bit

518
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,959
Speaker 19: of a brutal year as far as volatility spikes. Everyone

519
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 19: wants to get paid and no one wants to tread

520
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 19: back down or retrace too far, because the higher and

521
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 19: the stronger we close, the better most money managers will

522
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 19: do and their investors will do. So as we get

523
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 19: to that kind of November into December turn, I think

524
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 19: we're in good position to probably add another two to

525
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 19: three percent of the market and close up there for

526
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,959
Speaker 19: the year. Heading into next year, I do see us

527
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 19: kind of extended, and I do see some risk, But

528
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 19: right now, risk appetite is there and it probably continues

529
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 19: to be there through the end of the year.

530
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 1: So let me ask you this.

531
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 2: The present meeting was Jijingping on Thursday this week. There

532
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 2: is some discussion that the framework for a trade deal

533
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 2: is in place despite the fact that China's not buying

534
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 2: soy beans. They've done reasonably well. They're at an almost

535
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 2: fifty two week high, which is helping farmers here. Of course,

536
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 2: new markets in biodiesel and from Japan have help the

537
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 2: agricultural sector.

538
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 1: But what happens if China comes in and says, you

539
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: know what, we're ready to buy beans again. We're ready

540
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: to engage again. We're ready to get rid of some

541
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: of these tariffs.

542
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 2: If you have that and you couple with that with

543
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 2: a rate decrease from the FED, it can really rev

544
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 2: things up even more, couldn't it.

545
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 19: It definitely could. Look, we want trade to be fair,

546
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 19: and we want trade to be more tilted towards the US,

547
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,439
Speaker 19: which it hasn't been. Right, So as we start to

548
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 19: reduce these trade deficits and we start to take some

549
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 19: income in from tariffs and we can keep trade functioning,

550
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 19: of course, it's going to be good for the US

551
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 19: economy and the world economy. In addition to that, we're

552
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 19: bringing in private investments. There were just private investments again

553
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 19: announced with Japan today, where we're bringing more capital onto

554
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 19: the shores of the United States. Rather than exporting our

555
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 19: wealth as we have done, we're now importing, taking on investments,

556
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 19: and that will help the economy growth. So they're all

557
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 19: good things. I think it's all moving us in the

558
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 19: right direction. Just remains to be seen how we work

559
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 19: out the final details with China, which will take some time,

560
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 19: and then how we move forward with these investments. Do

561
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 19: they come in, when do they come in and how

562
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 19: do we take advantage.

563
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, the problem with China is that they tend to

564
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 2: be I think the word is dishonest. They don't always

565
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 2: honor their deals, which makes it a bit unpredictable.

566
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 1: But I can tell you this right now.

567
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 2: That Dow went over forty seven nine hundred today, which

568
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 2: is a remarkable number, to say the least. I've never

569
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 2: seen anything like it. I don't know that anybody has.

570
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 2: So here we are with the remarkable number. There, the

571
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 2: NASDAK over twenty three thousand, almost twenty four and the

572
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 2: S and B over sixty nine hundred for the first time.

573
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 2: I mean, these are tremendous umbers. All right, So the

574
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 2: last question real quick about gold? You think that it's

575
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,439
Speaker 2: going to continue to go. I've seen some predictions still

576
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 2: holding to five thousand dollars gold. Do you think that

577
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 2: that's a reality. What are your thoughts? Last question?

578
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: I do.

579
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 19: I think that if you look at real rates, so

580
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 19: inflation adjusted rates, if you look at the dollar, and

581
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 19: if you look at inflationary pressures global debt for example,

582
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 19: I think that you can see gold pushing through four

583
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 19: thousand to five thousand. I have gold on the near

584
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 19: term the trade signal for me at ascalon six has

585
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 19: shifted to negative, will be there for a little while.

586
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 19: But on the longer term, I still have positive signals

587
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 19: for gold, and I could see gold definitely moving up

588
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 19: towards the five thousand level.

589
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: And what's the longer term real quickly.

590
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 19: I think at that point you have to see what

591
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 19: it does at five thousand. I think the fact of

592
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 19: it getting there is qu over.

593
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 1: What timeframe are you looking at?

594
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 11: Oh?

595
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 7: I think.

596
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 19: I think a six to twelve month period with the

597
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 19: momentum that we have and the story not really fundamentally

598
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 19: have change. We're seeing a shift in assets now, but

599
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 19: the fundamental story has not changed. So six to twelve

600
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 19: month time period, I could see us up twenty percent

601
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 19: from here up towards five thousand.

602
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: Well, there you go, another big win.

603
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 2: Anthony Esposito, thank you for being here today, Founder CEO

604
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 2: ascalon six Capital, Good stuff. All Right, We're gonna take

605
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 2: a break after we talk about Patriot Mobile, because every

606
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 2: choice we make is an opportunity to stand for freedom,

607
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 2: even something as simple as your cell phone service. Here's

608
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 2: the truth. Most cell phone providers don't care about you.

609
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 2: They don't They just watch your money. Patriot Mobile is different.

610
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 2: For more than a dozen years, they've stood with Americans

611
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 2: who believe in faith, family, and freedom, contributing millions of

612
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 2: dollars to Christian conservative causes. The best part is this,

613
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 2: With Patriot Mobile, you don't have to sacrifice quality or service.

614
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile offers premium.

615
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 2: Access to all three major US networks, so you'll never

616
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 2: have to worry about coverage. Never think switching is complicated,

617
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 2: it's not. Keep your number and keep your phone, or

618
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 2: you can upgrade if you'd like. They've got all the

619
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 2: best models. Patriot Mobiles one hundred percent US based team

621
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: in a contract or still own money on your phone,

622
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 2: no problem. They even have a contract buyout program. So

623
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 2: what are you waiting for? Trust me, it's easy.

624
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: Use me. Such a pain to switch, it's not anymore.

Speaker 2: and be right back on America's Voice Live all right

632
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 2: time for a story we've discussed here at length. I

633
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 2: don't know how many other networks are giving me at

634
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 2: this kind of time, but the violence and persecution of Christians,

635
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 2: specifically in the Nation of Night remains to be a problem,

636
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 2: as these cases have maintained prevalence despite President Trump's intervention. Yeah,

637
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 2: in Nigeria's Middle Belt specifically, there have been numerous instances

638
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 2: where Christian practitioners recount harrowing tales of massacres. We're heavily armed,

639
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 2: Fulani herdsmen and jihatas take it upon themselves to call

640
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 2: those just wanting to express their faith that's another word

641
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 2: for murder. By the way, realizing something has to be done,

642
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 2: Ted Cruz has been active in his efforts to designate

643
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 2: Nigeria as a country a particular concern due to these

644
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 2: brazen and heartbreaking instances where religious freedom as being violent.

645
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: It is a genocide.

646
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 2: One hundred and twenty five thousand, that's the last estimate

647
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 2: we've seen, one hundred and twenty five thousand Christians murder.

648
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: Joined me to discuss this.

649
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 2: The president of some of the ministries, doctor Jeff Myers,

650
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 2: Doctor nice to see you.

651
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: We've had some of these stories on the program here.

652
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 2: We've heard from some of the people that have had

653
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 2: villages wiped out, ministers who have buried their well their

654
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 2: followers and their brothers and sisters.

655
00:31:58,960 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: It's just horrific.

656
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 4: It is horrific, Steve, And you're right, you are one

657
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 4: of the only networks covering this on a regular basis,

658
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 4: so congratulations for doing that.

659
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: There are more.

660
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 4: People who were killed this year who are Christians in

661
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 4: Nigeria than were killed in Gaza, and yet you'll hear

662
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 4: a one hundred stories about Gaza before you hear one

663
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 4: story about what's happening in Nigeria. Doesn't count as a genocide. Well,

664
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 4: it certainly is an Islamic versus Christian issue, and it

665
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 4: is the Christians who are being slaughtered. And there are

666
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 4: three different groups. There's Boca Haram, there are the Fulani

667
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 4: Hertsman as you mentioned, and there's also an ISIS affiliate

668
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 4: in Nigeria. So population is split fifty to fifty between

669
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,719
Speaker 4: Christians and Muslims, and the Muslims in this situation are

670
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 4: slaughtering Christians at an unprecedented ray. The answer is very straightforward.

671
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 4: What we can do and I think Senator Cruz is

672
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 4: going to be bringing that up.

673
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: I look forward to that for sure.

674
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 2: Look, here's where I have a complete disrespect for the

675
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 2: United Nations. They have two jobs in their charter. Stop wars,

676
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 2: stop genocide. I don't know that I can think of

677
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 2: any instance in my lifetime where they've done either. The

678
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 2: Unite Nations is a failure. Why we support them and

679
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 2: pay the bills is beyond me. The United States, based

680
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 2: on Donald's performance and office, so far far better.

681
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: Equipped to try to sort these things out. What do

682
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: you say.

683
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 4: The United Nations serves at the interests of nations that

684
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 4: are not doing what is right. I think it's very straightforward.

685
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 4: The United States needs to be a moral leader and

686
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 4: in this situation, and what we need to do is

687
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 4: designate that Nigeria is a country of particular concern. That's

688
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 4: a State Department designation, and it sets in motion the

689
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 4: possibility that we can sanction them and use the other

690
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 4: tools at our disposal, economic and political, to force the

691
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 4: government out of Nigeria to step up and defend its

692
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 4: own people. Sounds crazy that we would have to do that,

693
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 4: but we do have the tools and waiting around for

694
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 4: the United nations to do something is.

695
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 1: Pointless, absolutely true. It's sad.

696
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,840
Speaker 2: I hope that Senator Cruz can deliver us something here

697
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 2: and for those Nigerians, our prayers are with him. I'm

698
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 2: not sure what else we can do from this distance

699
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,760
Speaker 2: with what's happening there, but it's an everyday occurrence, Jeff,

700
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 2: and we need to find a way to save those people.

701
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 2: They're being just murdered a wholesale I'll give you the

702
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 2: last word. Well, I'll tell you what the issue is not.

703
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 2: It is not climate change. This is why the Biden

704
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 2: administration was unable to deal with this situation because they said, well,

705
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,160
Speaker 2: this is just climate change. The desert is encroaching on

706
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 2: the herding territory or the grazing pastures of the Filani herdsman,

707
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 2: and so therefore they're moving south and that creates tensions.

708
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 2: That is simply not the case.

709
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 4: And now people are starting to recognize no, this is

710
00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 4: actually a religious campaign against Chris, nothing to do with

711
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,360
Speaker 4: climate change. This is why the Biden administration totally missed it,

712
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 4: and hopefully the Trump administration won't.

713
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 2: Well, I hope you're right, because this is absolutely inexcusable

714
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 2: and horrendous Jeff, always appreciate you being here, Doctor Jeff Myers,

715
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 2: thank you.

716
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:16,760
Speaker 1: Thanks Steve.

717
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 2: All right, don't go anywhere. America's Voice Live will continue

718
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 2: after a short break.

719
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 14: Well.

720
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 2: Debt, as you know, is unfortunately reality the lives of

721
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 2: far too many Americans thanks to predatory loans or credit

722
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 2: cards that give high limits, incentivizing one to overspend. Thankfully,

723
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,439
Speaker 2: the team at Iconic Debt Relief is here to help

724
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 2: customers navigate the murky waters of debt collectors and gain

725
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 2: back their financial freedom. Join me out to discuss a

726
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 2: consumer finance advocate with Iconic Debt Relief Melody Peacoor, Maddie,

727
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 2: thank you for being here today.

728
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 6: Yeah, thank you so much. It's great to be here.

729
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 11: We are very passionate about helping our hardworking Americans just

730
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 11: get the honest information they deserve when it comes to

731
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 11: finding relief.

732
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 6: From their debt.

733
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 2: Now we hear the credit card balances and interest rates

734
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 2: are at record highs.

735
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: Are you seeing the same thing?

736
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 6: Oh?

737
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 11: Absolutely, I mean I think it's worse than most people

738
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 11: really do realize. Our average American family carries over twenty

739
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 11: thousand dollars in credit card debt. Interest rates have doubled.

740
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 11: Over the last few years, and honestly, many people making

741
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,439
Speaker 11: payments every month year after year, balances aren't going down,

742
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 11: and a lot of people don't even realize that, you know,

743
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,359
Speaker 11: they'll pay a little bit extra here or there, then

744
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 11: all of a sudden, unexpected expense comes up and they're stuck, right,

745
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 11: And that's really where we come in is to just

746
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:50,279
Speaker 11: help connect people with legitimate and proven programs that can

747
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 11: finally get them the relief that they're seeking.

748
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it causes a lot of anxiety, the debt.

749
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 1: It's all fun when.

750
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,760
Speaker 2: You spend the money on the credit card bill comes

751
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,919
Speaker 2: and then you look at and go, what have I done?

752
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: And then it builds up over time.

753
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 2: It can it cause you to lose sleep, it can

754
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 2: cause you to have misery. It's just miserable place to be.

755
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 2: So how does your team actually help someone who is

756
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 2: struggling like that?

757
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, and you're absolutely right.

758
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 11: But at Iconic Debt Relief, we really just start with

759
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 11: a simple free consultation. We look at your overall financial profile, right,

760
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,600

Speaker 11: to understand your goals where you want to be.

762
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 6: In five to ten years, and then really create.

763
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 11: A plan that can lower your overall payments and truly

764
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,720
Speaker 11: reduce your total amount that's out because in all reality,

765
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 11: you've probably paid back your debt by now, right, But

766
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 11: our goal is to just give people back the control,

767
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 11: the confidence, reduce those stress levels you were mentioning, and

768
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 11: really get that peace of mind. That's what it's all about,

769
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,760
Speaker 11: in finding those real solutions, not just a temporary fix.

770
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, can you share give us a story, a real

771
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 2: story that captures what Iconic Debt Relief is doing for

772
00:37:58,600 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 2: people today.

773
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 6: Sure, I'd be happy to.

774
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 11: Actually, one that really comes to mind is a couple

775
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 11: from Texas. They came to us with about forty five

776
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 11: thousand dollars worth in credit our debt. They were both

777
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 11: working full time, working really hard. In fact, they didn't

778
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 11: even really know where that debt had built up from,

779
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,959
Speaker 11: and they just couldn't get out from underneath it. After

780
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 11: joining a relief program through Iconic, their monthly payments actually

781
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,240
Speaker 11: dropped by about sixty percent, and within a few months

782
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 11: they said that they finally felt that they could breathe again,

783

840
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 2: Democrats plan to keep the government closed instead of negotiating

841
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:20,560

850
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,279
Speaker 2: here's a really cool story that makes America wonderful. Stevegruber

851
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 2: dot com and you can do that. Today's story comes

852
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 2: to us from Mount Cathdin, Maine.

853
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 1: I hope I said it right, Maners.

854
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 2: An eighty year old woman finished the entirety of the

855
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 2: Appalachian Trail eighty years old, she'll know. The Appalation Trail

856
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,880
Speaker 2: is one of the longest continuous hiking trails that spans

857
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 2: two two hundred miles stretches across fourteen states, starting in

858
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 2: Springer Mountain, Georgia. It's been said that the hiking the

859
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,919
Speaker 2: entire thing is equivalent to climbing Everest sixteen times, except well,

860
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,800
Speaker 2: you don't tend to die. Despite these conditions, Betty Kellenberger

861
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 2: took on the challenge, embraced and braved the track as

862
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 2: she faced dehydration, a concussion from a fall, and even

863
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 2: brave Hurricane Helene.

864
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, she was there for it right up front.

865
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 2: Betty's final stretch saw her proudly boasting about the tracks

866
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 2: she had just completed, a tracked that saw her making

867
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 2: history being the oldest confirmed person to complete the Appalation Trail.

868
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: Pretty remarkable.

869
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 2: Fighting for your dreams, no matter what is the moral story,

870
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 2: and Betty's determination reminds us of what makes America wonderful.

871
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 2: You know, even as you get older like I'm doing,

872
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 2: you can still do these things. I'm sure bullying will

873
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 2: point that out to me in a minute. Anyhow, here's

874
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 2: your question of today. How long do you think democrats

875
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 2: plan to keep the government closed instead of negotiating, the

876
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 2: Trump pirates says, let them keep going, just digging a

877
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,839
Speaker 2: bigger hole to climb out of. So true to that,

878
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 2: Boom writes this, they'll let the people on snap revolt

879
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 2: for a few days. Revolt. Yeah, you know what I

880
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 2: noticed when I was younger, Hungry people are angry people.

881
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 2: My brother was always mad. If you didn't need sarcasm, writes,

882
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 2: until whatever elections are held this November are over, so

883
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 2: that's next week, you might be right, Ali G Sadly,

884
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 2: it seems Dems are going to carry on with this

885
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 2: charade until voters hate Trump. Most of the nation's curious

886
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 2: how a couple of crooks can stop the US government

887
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 2: from conducting business. Maybe the system needs reform. You think

888
00:43:58,360 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 2: you know, if you just didn't pay the members of

889
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 2: you're not getting paid.

890
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 1: How about that? Hell and B writes They aren't used

891
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 1: to not getting their way. They don't know how to lose.

892
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: I don't trust them to ever do the right thing. Yeah,

893
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 1: I can't argue with that. CD hundred seventy one.

894
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,439
Speaker 2: I believe they'll keep it shut down until riots begin

895
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 2: at grocery and retail stores because the EBT cards won't

896
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 2: get funded, they won't work anymore, and gd Radaki she

897
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 2: I think it will be after November one, when everyone

898
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 2: who has Obamacare loses their healthcare. The Democrats will try

899
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 2: to blame the Republicans for it, but the mainstream media

900
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 2: will clutch their pearls and freak out. At least they

901
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 2: will stop talking about privately funded ballrooms for a little while.

902
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 2: You got that, all right, So if you want to

903
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:42,799
Speaker 2: be part of the question of the day, follow me

904

00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 20: about back in the day, growing up in the Midwestern

956
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 20: We're sharing stories about going across state lines. When Illinois

957
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 20: went to twenty one, Wisconsin was still eighteen, All of

958
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 20: us eighteen year olds. You should drive up to Wisconsin

959
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 20: and then very foolishly drive back.

960
00:46:58,160 --> 00:46:59,600

Speaker 1: I never got one of those.

965
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 2: But yeah, somehow we survived, bowling, doing all sorts of

966
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 2: crazy things without helmets. And and you know, we weren't

967
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 2: in padded suits. Somehow we did it, and here we

00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:22,600
