1
00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Ahead an American Sunrise early edition.

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 2: President Trump has had it now that the Wall Street

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 2: Journal is publishing a story insinuating that he may have

4
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 2: been the friend of Jeffrey Epstein.

5
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: The President now wants all the Epstein files.

6
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:16,600
Speaker 2: To be released, or at least the ones he can

7
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 2: get away with, presumably to sweep that speculation. Aside beating

8
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: the clock, the House votes two sixteen to two thirteen

9
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 2: to pass that nine plus billion dollar spending cut bill

10
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: that includes eliminating all.

11
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: Federal funding for MPR and PBS.

12
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: President Trump will likely sign it today. Speaking of cutting

13
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 2: off funding, Scott Besson's Treasury Department slaps severe financial sanctions

14
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 2: on the leaders of Trendy Iragua and other illegal alien gangs.

15
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: The sanctions aren't so much meant for those.

16
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,919
Speaker 2: Gang leaders, but for those who dare to do business

17
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: with them. Speaking of doing business with illegals, the FEDS

18
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: and local cops bust up a union visa fraud ring

19
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,919
Speaker 2: that includes phony robbery reports at subway and bribe police

20
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: chiefs in Louisiana.

21
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:09,559
Speaker 1: This story is something else.

22
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 2: So is this the time to be talking about some

23
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: kind of amnesty bill? A couple of Republicans are supporting

24
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 2: a plan to give illegals a pass. Now, talk about

25
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 2: very bad timing, but you have good timing because you're

26
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: in time to watch American Sunrise Early Edition, which begins now.

27
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 3: Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith,

28
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 3: freedom and the values that built this nation takes centers.

29
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 4: To your good deeds and baddies.

30
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 5: That's how we're gonna judge you.

31
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 3: Join host Jake Novak because he breaks down the stories

32
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 3: that met.

33
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: He will be letting the public know regularly what we

34
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: have found.

35
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Novak, starts.

36
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 2: Now, Good morning, and welcome to this No. Ti Friday

37
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: edition of American Sunrise Early Edition.

38
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: Oh wee morning news.

39
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 2: Guys and gals live for days like this, when there

40
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 2: was so much key breaking news after probably a number

41
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 2: of you went to sleep, if you went to sleep

42
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 2: at a decent hour. So let's get right to it.

43
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 2: I want to talk first about this news. It's come

44
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 2: out thanks to the Wall Street Journal, a real development

45
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 2: in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Here's what happened for those

46
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 2: of you who may have missed it. Wall Street Journal

47
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 2: publishing this story. Well first, this story and then they

48
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 2: had another story. But we'll have two headlines here. First,

49
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 2: here you see this Trump calling for the release of

50
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 2: pertinent as they're saying pertinent Epstein files, following this WSJ article,

51
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: And the article was the other one about how purportedly

52
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 2: President Trump wrote a letter. Here it is wrote a

53
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 2: letter in honor of Jeffrey Epstein's fiftieth birthday, all the

54
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 2: way back in two thousand and three. I want you

55
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: to take a look at the end of that headline

56
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 2: because this is the issue here that probably could trip

57
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 2: them up the Wall Street Journal in court or in

58
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: a lawsuit. It says the letter was from Donald Trump.

59
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: There's really nothing in the article that actually verifies that.

60
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: And if you take a look at the excerpts of

61
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 2: the letter that most of us have seen overnight again

62
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 2: if you haven't had a chance because he was sleeping,

63
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 2: the letter includes riddles, it includes an illustration. I don't

64
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: think Donald Trump has ever drawn a comic picture before.

65
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 2: It's very, very doubtful that he wrote that letter. Now

66
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 2: it's possible that he signed off on it, that someone

67
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: else wrote it and he said, yeah, okay, whatever, send

68
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 2: him something. But the letter from Donald Trump and the

69
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: headline that could really really be a major legal problem

70
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 2: for the Wall Street Journal's gonna give you a little

71
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: bit of a background, some inside dope that you probably

72
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: might have guessed about newspapers. This is true of websites too,

73
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 2: and sometimes even television news stations. The actual reporters don't

74
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 2: ever write the headlines, with very very few exceptions, almost

75
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 2: never happens, so it's a different headline. And usually the

76
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: editors who write the headlines for the most part, are

77
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 2: not very senior out of paper, so this could be

78
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 2: a very mid level or even junior editor. And I

79
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: was a huge story, so I assume they brought some

80
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 2: senior people into it, but that is what's going to

81
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 2: nail them here. I don't think that this letter was

82
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: actually written by Donald Trump. The only question is whether

83
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: he signed off on it or not, And even if

84
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 2: he did, that doesn't prove anything. Did he really know

85
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 2: Jeffrey ev Sein? Was he connected to him? And of

86
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 2: course this is spur Donald Trump to do what I

87
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 2: think a lot of us wanted him to do in

88
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 2: the first place, which is to tell Pam Bondi, the

89
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 2: Attorney General, to go to court and release the grand

90
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 2: jury files and some other files that can be released

91
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 2: to the public right away, and Pam Bondi immediately putting

92
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 2: on her social media account that she's on our way

93
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 2: to do that today. So we're going to get I

94
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 2: think a good result from this Wall Street Journal chickinery.

95
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 2: Actually I don't think the Wall Street Journal wanted this

96
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 2: to happen, but I think we will get some more

97
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 2: information as we've always wanted. But I have to tell

98
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 2: you this is a legal problem for the Wall Street

99
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 2: Journal because of that headline headlines are what about ninety

100
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 2: percent of the people see they don't necessarily read the

101
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 2: rest of the article, and so you can't say, well,

102
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 2: this was just a small part of the article. It

103
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 2: wasn't something that we really looked at. This was something

104
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 2: that was probably looked at, probably written by someone kind

105
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: of junior, but okayed and signed off on by someone

106
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 2: who's a little bit more senior at the Wall Street Journal.

107
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: This isn't going to go well for the Journal. I

108
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 2: can just tell you this right now. It's not going

109
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 2: to go It's gonna be another one of those situations

110
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 2: like CBS and the sixty minutes Kamala Harris interview.

111
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: I think that this was a mistake.

112
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 2: Now, President Trump posting on his own true social account

113
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 2: that he was in contact with Rupert Murdock, the owner

114
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 2: of the Wall Street Journal.

115
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: Yes he's also the.

116
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: Owner of Fox News those many of you know that,

117
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: and asked him to take care of it. President Trump says,

118
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 2: Rupert Murdoch said he would, but of course it didn't

119
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: get taken care of. This, of course, will also start

120
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: from the left wing media. A lot of squawking about

121
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 2: how President Trump's trying to stifle the news media, et cetera,

122
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 2: et cetera. Hey, let me tell you something who has

123
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 2: a personal experience of this. The Obama administration and the

124
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 2: Biden administration worked reporters pretty hard too. I got my

125
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: phil of threatening emails and calls to my bosses when

126
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 2: I was doing stories about the Obama administration for years.

127
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 2: So you know, they can put that in a corner.

128
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 2: That's what everyone does. They always try to work the

129
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 2: reporters when they feel like a bad story is coming

130
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 2: out about them. That's nothing new, So don't be fooled

131
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: by that. You know, I love to preempt lies on

132
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 2: this program. They're going to lie to you about a

133
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,239
Speaker 2: bunch of things. So I want to preempt that right away.

134
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 2: Both right wing, left wing Democrat Republican presidents and politicians

135
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 2: try to suppress stories all the time and make calls

136
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 2: to publishers.

137
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: That is a daily occurrence in DC and New York.

138
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 2: But the problem here is again that the Wall Street

139
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 2: Journal reported this and a headline and basically said it

140
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: in the headline as fact that this letter for this

141
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: birthday book for Jeffrey Epstein with a bunch of jokes

142
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 2: in it and riddles and a bunch of other people

143
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 2: wrote stuff purportedly was from Donald Trump. They put that

144
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 2: as a fact in the headline. That's a problem. That's

145
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: a problem, But it does seem to have started the

146
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 2: whole process of releasing.

147
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: Some of these Epstein files to the public.

148
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: So I guess we all win in the end for

149
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 2: those of us who wanted to see this story and

150
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 2: get more details about it in the end, all right. Also,

151
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 2: don't think that was the only breaking news overnight, folks.

152
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 2: We also have the House of Representatives passing that recision

153
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 2: bill overnight. And this is again that nine billion plus

154
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 2: cut in spending nine billion dollars plus cut and spending.

155
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 2: A number of you on Getter and Rumble have made

156
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: the good point that nine billion dollars is less than

157
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 2: a drop in the bucket when it comes to all

158
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 2: of our deficits and our debt. You are one hundred

159
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: percent right about that mathematically. But please understand that there

160
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 2: is a symbolic value of cutting federal funding to MPR

161
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 2: and PBS that goes way beyond the billion dollars or

162
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: so that's going to be taken out of their pockets

163
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 2: right now. It is very important because it's always been really,

164
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 2: really difficult to make those cuts. And if you can

165
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 2: get cuts out of NPR and PBS, there's going to

166
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 2: be a lot of other programs worth a lot more

167
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: money mathematically that we're now going to be able to

168
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: get to. Because if you can do it to MPR

169
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,559
Speaker 2: and PBS, and they've deserved it for a long time,

170
00:07:58,720 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 2: then you can do it to anyone.

171
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 5: Thing.

172
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: I want to note about that story. You know, MPR

173
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 2: and PBS haven't been shy about reporting on this recision

174
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: bill for days and days and days now, and they've

175
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: been reporting on the overall story of federal funding to

176
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 2: MPR and PBS for years. Here's the problem. Every single

177
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: time that MPR or PBS publishes a story about their funding,

178
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 2: there's an inherent conflict of interest. You're writing about your

179
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: own funding source, And every time they do it, they

180
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 2: prove the overall point which I would like to make.

181
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 2: I'm sure a lot of you agree with that there

182
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: should never be government funded news media anyway. How can

183
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 2: you possibly report on the government or anything the government

184
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: is doing in an even somewhat fair way when you're

185
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 2: relying on government funding. Now, some newspapers and websites and

186
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 2: television networks might be overly favorable to a government because

187
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 2: they that's where their bread is buttered. Some of them

188
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 2: might go overboard and be totally unfavorable in some way

189
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 2: of proving that they're not so rely on government money.

190
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 2: Either way, there's an inherent conflict of interest. They shouldn't

191
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 2: be even reporting on it. And if you can't report

192
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 2: on an important story like that, what are you even

193
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 2: in the business for. We shouldn't have government funded news media.

194
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 2: I know a lot of other countries do it. I

195
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: don't care. We shouldn't have it period. One of the

196
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 2: things that really could have strengthened NPR and PBS in

197
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 2: a big way is if they've got rid of their

198
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 2: news divisions, and we're only doing so called artistic and

199
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 2: educational stuff, which also, by the way, sometimes is very

200
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 2: left leaning and very partisan, but less so they would

201
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: have gotten away with it two if or for those

202
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 2: darn kids. All right, that's a Scooby Doo reference which

203
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 2: will never be on PBS, but maybe it should be.

204
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 2: All Right, there's another story that broke, not overnight but

205
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 2: yesterday afternoon, and it's an important one. Treasury Secretary Scott

206
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 2: Besson sanctioning Trendy or Ragua and some other illegal alien

207
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 2: gangs and such across the country. Now, some of you

208
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 2: might be saying, these gang members are wanted for and

209
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 2: leaders are wanted for murder and for a lot worse

210
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 2: than some of their find financial stuff. What's the point

211
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 2: of this. Isn't this just like adding a few more charges. No,

212
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 2: that's not the point. The point is when you are

213
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: sanctioned economically by the US government, anyone doing business with you,

214
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: forget about the person that they're sanctioning or the organization

215
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 2: they're sanctioning, anyone doing business with them is now liable

216
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 2: for prosecution. Are you listening to me? Sanctuary cities, sanctuary states,

217
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 2: if you come up with some kind of a deal

218
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 2: to allow trendy Uragua to go into a housing project

219
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 2: hellow Colorado, or give them money like with gift cards

220
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 2: a low LA and New York City.

221
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: The politicians who allow that.

222
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: Could be sanctioned along with the you know, as part

223
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 2: of this overall sanction just saying, as the kids say

224
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 2: these days, this could be a huge problem not only

225
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,560
Speaker 2: for actual businesses or shady businesses doing business with these guys,

226
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: but also the politicians and the political entities watch out

227
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 2: for that. Now, with all of this going on with

228
00:10:55,280 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 2: illegal immigration, Republicans, some Republicans like Maria salis Are of Florida,

229
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 2: think this is the time to float an amnesty bill.

230
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: Is she crazy?

231
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 2: There's a couple of Republicans joining Democrats yesterday came out

232
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 2: and called for an amnesty bill, not for all illegal aliens,

233
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 2: but for a good number of them. This is again

234
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 2: another case of do these people read the polls. Of course,

235
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 2: they read the polls. They see these poles that have

236
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 2: come out that have shown even in the New York Times,

237
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 2: a very clear majority of Americans want all illegal aliens deported.

238
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 2: They don't want amnesty, they want them all deported, even

239
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 2: the more sympathetic cases. So what's their problem? Are they illiterate? No,

240
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: they're not illiterate. This is yet another case I believe

241
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 2: of funding. This is campaign funding. Are other kinds of

242
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 2: funding going to these politicians. We've seen it with Democrats,

243
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 2: getting them to embrace politically unpopular, to say the least,

244
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 2: positions like supporting illegal aliens, going to visit them at

245
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 2: El Salvador, saying that you're going to hand delivered cash

246
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 2: cards to wherever they're living, like La may or Karen Bass.

247
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 2: They know these things are politically unpopular, but they're getting

248
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: so much funding and so much pressure from donors. That's

249
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 2: why they're doing this, and they're hoping to get away

250
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 2: with it. I'm afraid Salazar is another one of them.

251
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 2: This is not politically popular now. It's as unpopular as

252
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 2: I can ever remember it being. By the way, as

253
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 2: far as the polls are concerned, I'm sure a lot

254
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 2: of the left wing posters are shocked that despite all

255
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 2: the sob story stories that they've been putting out about

256
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 2: families getting separated, the American public is stronger on this

257
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 2: than I can ever remember it being. Okay, coming up,

258
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 2: we're going to get back to illegal immigration in a minute.

259
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: Wait until you hear the details of visa fraud and

260
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 2: bribery out of the state of Louisiana. It confirms so

261
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 2: many suspicions about the visa program, and then some and

262
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 2: then there's very disturbing new evidence in that Air India

263
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 2: crash investigation. I'll have the details on that and more

264
00:12:48,520 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 2: when American Sunrise Early Edition continues.

265
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition.

266
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 2: It's a no time Friday as we take a live

267
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 2: look at the White House and those new flagpoles. Now

268
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 2: the flagpole in the back of the White House is

269
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 2: flying very nicely in the wind, not so much the front.

270
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: I don't know.

271
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 2: Talk about different weather patterns in different parts of a city.

272
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: That's really saying something. Man, Washington in July and August

273
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: is just not the best place to be. That's all

274
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: I can say.

275
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 2: I got to tell you about this real doozy of

276
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 2: an illegal immigration story here on American Sunrise Early Edition.

277
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 2: This is a scam that the FBI broke open this

278
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 2: week in the Baton Rouge area of Louisiana. An Indian

279
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 2: American subway sandwich shop owner. His name is Chandracott Patel.

280
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 2: He had been making claims over about a ten year

281
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 2: period about robberies at his shop. So you know, the

282
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 2: local cops in THEBI started to get a little suspicious

283
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 2: because this guy's shop was getting robbed all the time,

284
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 2: I mean a lot. Well, they figured out why he

285
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 2: was doing this. It turns out the American visa program.

286
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 2: One of his many interesting nuances is if you are

287
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 2: a victim of a crime here in the United States

288
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 2: and you're an immigrant here on a visa, you can

289
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 2: get an extended basically almost indefinite visa as basically some

290
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: kind of a reward or some kind of compensation from

291
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 2: the US government.

292
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: That's what you can get. Incredible, so of course he

293
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: was using these robbery reports as a scam. There's only

294
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: one problem.

295
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: When you have a robbery report, the cops come and

296
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 2: actually come to your store and have to corroborate it.

297
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 2: You can't just say you were robbed and collect the

298
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 2: insurance money and get a bunch of visas for your friends. Well,

299
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 2: this guy Putel had that figured out, and he bribed

300
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 2: a number of police officers, three of them police chiefs,

301
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 2: according to the FBI. Another one was another officer, former

302
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 2: and current police chiefs, and they were indicted as well

303
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 2: yesterday in the World Louisiana. This is an incredible story

304
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 2: of just how much the visa situation in this country

305
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: is abused. I promise you this one story out of

306
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 2: Baton Rouge is not unique. There's probably a number of

307
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 2: other businesses doing this. If you're interested, if you're an

308
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 2: investigative reporter, or if you're a cop somewhere, take a

309
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 2: look at some of the businesses that keep getting robbed

310
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 2: or reportedly robbed, and see what's going on with visas

311
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 2: connected to that.

312
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: This is an interesting story. My guess is there's going

313
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: to be other ones like it.

314
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 2: But my goodness, you know, listen, I don't Subway has

315
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 2: some good sandwiches, but it's not robbing it.

316
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: It's not worth robbing it ten times a month. Let's

317
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 1: put it that way, all right.

318
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 2: Serious story now, one that I've been reporting on here

319
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 2: on American Sunrise Early Edition, and it just keeps getting worse.

320
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 2: I want to talk about that Air India crash last

321
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 2: month that killed two hundred and sixty people. Now, we

322
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 2: learned earlier this week and late last week that the

323
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 2: cause of the crash in the preliminary investigation set over

324
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 2: the weekend was because the fuel switches were switched off,

325
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: cutting off fuel to the engines just as the jet

326
00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 2: was taking off.

327
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: That's obviously not a good thing.

328
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 2: Now, we also learned during that preliminary report over the

329
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 2: weekend and into Monday that those switches really can't be

330
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 2: switched off automatically. They have to be switched off with

331
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 2: someone with their hands, with a pilot with their hands.

332
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: It just does not happen otherwise. Well, now, the latest

333
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 2: report out of the Wall Street Journal doing some reporting

334
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 2: that's good, says that the pilot that the black box

335
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 2: recording shows that the co pilot notes to the senior pilot, Hey,

336
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 2: those switches are down, and the co pilot as exceedingly

337
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 2: agitated as you might expect and worried about that, while

338
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 2: the senior pilot says there's no problem and is very

339
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 2: very calm. It just seems more and more like this

340
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 2: was a deliberate suicide by the pilot. Of course, not

341
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: just for him, but for the other two hundred and

342
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 2: sixty people who died.

343
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: This is not unprecedented.

344
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 2: We saw this in the late nineteen nineties with the

345
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 2: Egypt air crash out of JFK with the pilot who

346
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: committed suicide and decided to take a jetload of seven

347
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 2: forty seven jetload of people with him. This is an

348
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 2: absolute disgrace and a failure of the mental healthcare system

349
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 2: that has some kind of screening program for pilots at

350
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 2: Air India. But it certainly is a harrowing story. We'll

351
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 2: keep you updated on this. This is not a surprise

352
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 2: based on what we saw on Monday. Actually, this is

353
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 2: something that a lot of people suspected the moment that

354
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 2: jet crash, but the responsible folks out there weren't going

355
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 2: to say anything until they got some evidence. Now we

356
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: have some evidence, Okay, when organic skincare care brand called

Speaker 2: American Sunrise Early Edition, We'll be right back. Welcome back

381
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 2: to American Sunrise Early addition to look at the Capitol

382
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 2: Dome this morning in Washington, d C. They worked late

383
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 2: again in that building and the House did pass by

384
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 2: a two sixteen to two thirteen vote that nine billion

385
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 2: dollar plus recision package. That of course, the highlight of

386
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 2: it is the one billion dollar funding yank away from

387
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 2: MPR and.

388
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: PBS taking away all their federal funding.

389
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 2: Now, so some big news, and I think that President

390
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 2: Trump will sign that probably today. I can't imagine he

391
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 2: would wait. And that's what we got going on. Welcome

392
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 2: back to American Sunrise early edition. It's a note time Friday.

393
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 2: Let's take a look at where the markets will begin today.

394
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,360
Speaker 2: We have two days of rallies going for three. Will

395
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: it be a third day? Very very flat as you

396
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 2: can see in the green, but very flat right now.

397
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 2: You know these markets we have it really don't have

398
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 2: much of an idea where they're going to end up

399
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 2: based on what you're looking at their right there. Gold

400
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 2: is up though thirty three fifty seven an ounce. Crude

401
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 2: oil also up back up to the sixty eight dollars

402
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 2: a barrel level, but still clearly under seventy bucks is

403
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 2: Take a look at bitcoin and see if it's reaching

404
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 2: any new highs.

405
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: No, it's at one hundred and nineteen thousand. So I'm

406
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: I'm making I'm calling it.

407
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 2: You know, for weeks we were in a window of

408
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 2: one hundred and four thousand to one hundred and ten

409
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,400
Speaker 2: thousand on bitcoin.

410
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: Weeks and weeks and weeks we.

411
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 2: Finally broke out of that got as high as I

412
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: think one twenty two, certainly at least one twenty one.

413
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: So now I am calling the new window.

414
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 2: The new window is between one seventeen and one twenty one,

415
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 2: and we're right smack dab in the middle of that

416
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 2: right now at one nineteen. Okay, will they or won't they?

417
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 2: Will Coca Cola really only use pure cane sugar and

418
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 2: not corn syrup and what god knows what else to

419
00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 2: sweeten their drinks? Now, President Trump announced the other I

420
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 2: think it was Wednesday, that Coca Cola had agreed to

421
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 2: only use pure cane sugar. Coca Cola still hasn't acknowledged that.

422
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 2: But you know, again, as I say on this program

423
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 2: all the time, what do the people with skin in

424
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 2: the game tell us about the reality of that story? Well,

425
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 2: yesterday those investors told us at the beginning of the

426
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 2: day that they thought that story was true because Archer

427
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 2: Daniels Midland, which is a big artificial sweetener maker, to

428
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 2: make a lot of other farm byproducts, I'll call them,

429
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 2: and I used to work in Archer Daniels Midland's hometown

430
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 2: of Decatur, Illinois, so I know a lot about that company. Anyway,

431
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 2: their shares went down three percent at the open yesterday.

432
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 2: That's a lot for that company in one day because listen,

433
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 2: they would lose a lot of business if Coke only

434
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 2: went to pure cane sugar. But by the end of

435
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 2: the day, Archer Daniels Midland's shares were only down slightly,

436
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 2: not even half of a percent. So I think investors

437
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: with skin in the game are going to wake this

438
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 2: one out. And that's what's going on right there. Meanwhile,

439
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 2: Coke shares were up almost two percent for the day,

440
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 2: and that is probably because, Hey, all advertise is good advertising.

441
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,679
Speaker 2: People talking about Coca Cola products, and I think some

442
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 2: of the investors are saying, hey, people are talking about

443
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 2: these products.

444
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: There's probably going to be an initial buy.

445
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 2: If Coke either goes makes this complete transformation of cane sugar,

446
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 2: people will start to buy it more, at least just

447
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: for the fat of it maybe for a little while,

448
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 2: or Coke might just release a little bit more pure

449
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 2: cane sugar. Coke put it out as a new variety

450
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 2: of the brand, and that too will probably boo sales,

451
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 2: at least temporarily. That's what the people with skin in

452
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 2: the game are telling us, and that's probably the story

453
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 2: because they have money in that pot.

454
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 1: All right. Vap being king Jewel has avoided execution.

455
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 2: The FDA ended a years long limbo legal limbo for

456
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 2: the vaping products yesterday. By the way, it could have

457
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 2: ended with the government banning Jewel altogether, but they decided

458
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 2: not to do that. Now, let's make this something clear here.

459
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 2: This does not mean that the FDA has approved Jewel.

460
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 1: Or vaping in particular.

461
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 2: But what it does mean is that the FDA is

462
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 2: finding that vaping is on a similar platform as tobacco products.

463
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 2: And as long as the government hasn't completely banned cigarettes,

464
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 2: they've taxed the heck out of them. We all know

465
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 2: about that, and they've kept them from advertising on TV,

466
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. But the FDA decided that vaping

467
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 2: is no worse than tobacco and they deserve the same rights.

468
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 2: So they're on the same platform. So vape away, everybody,

469
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 2: if you'd like another small victory in the hard a war,

470
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 2: the long war, a difficult war to get prescription drug

471
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 2: prices under control. Pfizer and Bristol Meyers Squib, two of

472
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 2: the big farmer companies, announced yesterday that they've gone into

473
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,199
Speaker 2: a partnership to provide a blood thinner medication that is

474
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 2: extremely necessary for a lot of patients out there, called Eloquists,

475
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 2: to be sold directly to consumers, cutting out all the

476
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 2: insurance middlemen, and some of the savings on this might

477
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 2: be as much as forty percent for people buying this drug.

478
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: Now.

479
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 2: This is all because of a Trump administration effort that's

480
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 2: been going on really since the first term to find

481
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 2: new and innovative ways to lower drug prices. You can

482
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 2: be like Zoe, are on, Mom, Donnie all you want

483
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 2: and tell the drug companies to lower prices or else,

484
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 2: which usually means or else they'll close up shop. They

485
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 2: might even go out of business. You got to find

486
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 2: other ways that actually work. First, the Trump administration tried

487
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 2: to get the drug companies to raise their prices elsewhere

488
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 2: so that they could charge us less. Eventually, that worked

489
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 2: a little bit, but didn't go as far as they wanted.

490
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 2: Now they're trying things like this where they're getting the

491
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 2: drug companies to team up to go and jump over

492
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 2: that middleman, the insurance companies and some of the other

493
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 2: pharmacy situations.

494
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: So this will help.

495
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 2: Hopefully there'll be more drugs like this where we find

496
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 2: some savings. It's not easy, though. This is not an

497
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 2: easy solution, and that is why people like Zora, Mom,

498
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 2: Donnie don't have the answer.

499
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 1: You got to work hard at this. All right, ladies

500
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, start your engines.

510
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 2: a big investment in ev robotaxis. This time it's Uber,

511
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 2: which is actually making its second big effort here to

512
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 2: try to get into these self driving cars, and taxis.

513
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: Its partner this time is a company called Lucid.

514
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 2: Lucid that's an American EV company, and that is a

515
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 2: again American based and their shares rose five percent yesterday

516
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 2: on this news and another four percent of the pre

517
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: market this morning. So this is an up and comer again.

518
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 2: Gotta be careful though, these projects sometimes crash and burn,

519
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 2: no pun intended, but hey, this is a stock Lucid

520
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 2: that still even now is trading for less than a

521
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 2: dollar twenty five a share, So if you like taking

522
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 2: bets on long shots, this could be one again. I'm

523
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 2: not giving you financial advice. I'm just stating a fact.

524
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 2: It's a cheap stock right and now at a dollar

525
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 2: well under a dollar twenty five a share, and it's

526
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 2: been going up a lot on this news. As you know,

527
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 2: I'm a fan of self driving cars because I know

528
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 2: so many people who are disabled in America. They're supposed

529
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 2: to have transportation services that the government gives them.

530
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: You know how well that works out.

531
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 2: It doesn't. I feel very very sorry for them. They

532
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:37,679
Speaker 2: are trapped in their homes.

533
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: It's like a jail. Sentence.

534
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 2: Self driving cars is an absolutely liberating change for the

535
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 2: millions and millions of disabled Americans who cannot drive on

536
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 2: their own. And I think that they are still safer

537
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 2: than most drivers. I'm sure a lot of you don't

538
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,199
Speaker 2: agree with me. You can tell me about that in

539
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 2: getter and rumble chats. I can take it, but that's

540
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 2: my position.

541
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: Okay.

542
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,959
Speaker 2: The Trump administration has found an interesting new way to

543
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 2: make sure the bide is teams drastically new increased fuel

544
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 2: efficiency standards don't end up biting US automakers.

545
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: How are they doing that?

546
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,479
Speaker 2: Well, the White House is simply not going to collect

547
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,679
Speaker 2: any of the fines that the companies incurred under the

548
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 2: Biden rules.

549
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good way to work around it.

550
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 2: You don't have to wait for those rules to be rescinded,

551
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 2: which is going to take a long process, has to

552
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 2: go through Congress, It's going to have to go through courts.

553
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah.

554
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 2: You guys know the whole situation with these activist judges.

555
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 2: It's going to take forever. It may never happen, but

556
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 2: if the government never actually collects the finds that these

557
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 2: companies have incurred under the new rules, then they might

558
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 2: as well not exist again. A new innovative way to

559
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 2: solve a problem. Now, as I reported a few weeks ago,

560
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 2: even when EV batteries permanently run out of enough juice

561
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 2: to power a car, there's still enough left in them

562
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 2: for other purposes.

563
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: So now GM is getting in on this.

564
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 2: Basically, they decided not to throw away something that's still valuable.

565
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 2: This reminds me of my grandparents telling me not to

566
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 2: throw out string and tinfoil. But hey, whatever works is

567
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 2: teaming up with a company called Redwood Energy to recycle

568
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 2: EV batteries and use them for AI technology. By the way,

569
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 2: this is just the latest example of how the country,

570
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,199
Speaker 2: both the private and the public sector, are starting to

571
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 2: freak out about the realities of AI and how much

572
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 2: power AI programming sucks out of the electrical grid. We

573
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: need to come up with new ideas to power this

574
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 2: sucker because it's a lot Now. Of course, a lot

575
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 2: of companies are going to use smaller nuclear reactors to

576
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,719
Speaker 2: do this, and that's fine, but we got to come

577
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 2: up with something.

578
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: Again. I'm a big fan of nuclear power.

579
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: That'll work, but it's going to take a while to

580
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 2: get those reactors built, So GM going to use those

581
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 2: those EV batteries for something else when they run out

582
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 2: in your car. Okay, I'm going to admit this to everyone.

583
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 2: I admit it when I'm wrong, And boy was I

584
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 2: wrong about this. When Porsche first started making SUVs about

585
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 2: thirteen years ago, twelve years ago, I thought the idea

586
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 2: would never fly and it would become something like an

587
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 2: ed soul joke. You know, a sports car company, a

588
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 2: performance car company making SUVs. Who would want that? Well,

589
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 2: boy was I wrong. Porsche just made it's one millionth

590
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 2: mackin suv. It was bought by a customer, fittingly in Germany,

591
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 2: who bought it right off the line of the production company,

592
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 2: of the production factory in Leipzig. Again, thirteen years of

593
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 2: success for something I thought the sports car.

594
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: Maker would not pull off. I was wrong. Boy.

595
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 2: People really love SUVs, even if they say Porsche on them,

596
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 2: or maybe I should say especially if they say Porsche

597
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 2: on them.

598
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: Congratulations.

599
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 2: The customer, I guess, is not always right because they

600
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 2: figured out a way to get the customer to want

601
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 2: something the customer wasn't even saying that. They said they

602
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 2: wanted customers wanted SUVs. But I don't think they were

603
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 2: knocking down the door at Porsche asking for a Porsche Suv.

604
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: It's a good thing Porsche thought for itself.

605
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 2: Okay, coming up, let's check in with the biggest red

606
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: state of them all, Texas. First up, we're gonna check

607
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 2: in on the Ken Paxton John Cornyn Senate battle and

608
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 2: light us some personal news on that front.

609
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: The American Sunrise Early edition will be right back.

610
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 2: It's Friday, July eighteenth. Here this morning's top stories. President

611
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 2: Trump has had it now that the Wall Street Journal

612
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 2: is publishing a story insinuating that he may have been

613
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 2: a closer friend of Jeffrey Epstein than we all thought.

614
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 2: The President now wants all the Epstein files, or at

615
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 2: least the ones he can get released now released to

616
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 2: the public, presumably to sweep that speculation. Aside beating the clock,

617
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,719
Speaker 2: the House votes two sixteen to thirteen to pass that

618
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 2: nine plus billion dollar spending cut bill that includes eliminating

619
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 2: all federal funding for MPR and PBS. President Trump will

620
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 2: likely sign it today. Speaking of cutting off funding, Scott

621
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 2: Besson's Treasury Department slaps severe financial sanctions on the leaders

622
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 2: of Trendy.

623
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: Iragua and other illegal alien gangs.

624
00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 2: By the way, the sanctions aren't so much meant for

625
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,239
Speaker 2: those guys leaders, but for those who dare to do

626
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 2: business with them. And is this the time to be

627
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 2: talking about some kind of amnesty bill? A couple of

628
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 2: Republicans are supporting a plan to give a lot of

629
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 2: illegals a pass. Now, talk about very bad timing. American

630
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 2: Sunrise Early Edition continues. Now, welcome to this Friday, No

631
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 2: Thai Friday edition of American Sunrise Early Edition.

632
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,959
Speaker 1: I'm Jake Novec. Thank you so much for joining us.

633
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 2: Thank you for joining me in the ghetter and rumble

634
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 2: chats and making sure that it is not a passive

635
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 2: enterprise to watch television news anymore. You should be getting

636
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 2: your voice heard, and we are watching.

637
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 1: I am at least welcome back.

638
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 2: Joining us now is Texas conservative political strategists. Strategists, I said,

639
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 2: and former statewide candidate Tom Slocum. Tom, you know, listen,

640
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 2: this is one of those things. It's funny in conservative

641
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 2: news media, we often spend a lot of time focusing

642
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 2: on the craziness of New York and California or Seattle

643
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 2: and all that stuff, and I feel like we forget

644
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 2: to talk about the big red states, and there's no

645
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 2: bigger red state at least as far as total population

646
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 2: and Electoral College votes than Texas. So we need to

647
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 2: check in on Texas every once in a while, and

648
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 2: you're the best guy to do that. So let's talk

649
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 2: about what I think is from an outsider to Texas's standpoint,

650
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 2: the biggest story out of Texas over the last week.

651
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 2: And then to these personal developments in the Ken Paxton

652
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: versus John Cornyn senate battle. We know that Ken Paxson's

653
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 2: wife filed for divorce. We also know that John Cornyan

654
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 2: is now personally asking President Trump to intervene and help him.

655
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 2: So give us your take on what's going on in

656
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 2: that race. Is going to shake it up or is

657
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 2: this just this is going to be something that the

658
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 2: campaign absorbs and they just move along.

659
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 4: Well, I think it's pretty funny.

660
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 5: You know, President Trump has actually made statements before about

661
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 5: John Cornan. In fact, he said he's criticized John Cornyn

662
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 5: and said that his actions on various issues, including COVID,

663
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 5: are major problems. And he said that John Corny will

664
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 5: not win his next reelection. When he said that, and

665
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 5: then you know that was many moons ago, right, and

666
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 5: you can see that there's been a divided pass between

667
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 5: John Hornon and Donald Trump's policies. They've come to but

668
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 5: several times over. In fact, John Cornan went as far

669
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 5: as to go on National TV on a major network

670
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 5: and state that, you know, Donald Trump is not the

671
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 5: candidate for the Republican Party, all right. I mean he

672
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 5: suggests that that Donald Trump shouldn't have been the nominee.

673
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 5: And so this is all very funny. Now that John

674
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 5: Cornyn is having to deal with this fallout, that's probably

675
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 5: one of the biggest problems he's going to face besides

676
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 5: his voting record.

677
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 4: And so you know, Ken Paxton is going.

678
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 5: To be running on his record of what he's done

679
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 5: here in Texas as a conservative.

680
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 4: We know that he fights for Texans.

681
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 5: Every single day, he launches new lawsuits, you know, every

682
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 5: week it seems like he's going after for some reason,

683
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 5: and it's a good reason. We want a strong attorney

684
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 5: general in Texas that fights for us, and that's what

685
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 5: we've had here. We know the difference between a real

686
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 5: conservative warrior and someone that is just putting it on

687
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 5: to fake it until they make it and try to

688
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 5: reach out to to get Trump's or to get Trump's,

689
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 5: you know, endorsement. And the worst part is is that

690
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 5: John Cornon felt he needed to clip up a statement

691
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 5: made by Donald Trump at a campaign rally this week

692
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 5: and make it suggest like he was somehow endorsing John Cornyon,

693
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 5: which is not true at all. And Laura Lumer actually

694
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 5: pointed that out. I have to bring that up, and

695
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 5: you know, it's a fact. It's a fact that his

696
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 5: team edited this thing, was highly edited, and it was

697
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 5: made to look like Donald Trump was going to say

698
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 5: something good about John Cornyon. The fact is that John

699
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 5: Corny's done in the polls big time. All the polling

700
00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 5: that I have seen shows John Corning losing this and

701
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:04,280
Speaker 5: that's the reason. The same donors that back John Cornyn

702
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 5: originally are now talking to Wesley Hunt and to Ronnie Jackson,

703
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 5: and they would love Wesley and Ronnie to get into

704
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 5: the race to try to start things up. But as

705
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 5: everybody knows here in Texas, it's not going to work.

706
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, again, they're trying to make a

707
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 2: big deal out of Ken Paxson's wife filing for divorce.

708
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 2: First of all, it's twenty twenty five, not nineteen fifty.

709
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 2: Five or nineteen thirty five and second of all time.

710
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 2: I mean, you got a whole song about it. All

711
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 2: of my exes live in Texas. I mean, it's one

712
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 2: of the best songs ever. I don't see how that's

713
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 2: going to mean. They really make that one of the

714
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 2: warm up songs at the rallies, just to One of

715
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 2: my favorite PR strategies is to defuse the stuff that

716
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 2: the other people are going to say about you, embrace it,

717
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 2: play that song. All my exes live in Texas, and

718
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 2: then they can move on. All right, There's another big

719
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 2: name in Texas who's definitely getting a major primary challenge.

720
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 2: That's Congressman Dan Crenshaw, and his challenger is a guy

721
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 2: named Steve Toath. Tell us what's going on in that

722
00:35:58,120 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 2: race and tell us about those guys.

723
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, you know this is another big one.

724
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 5: You know, Dan Crenshaw is going to get smoked in

725
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 5: this race. I have been observing this Congressional District CD

726
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 5: two here in Texas for several years, and my heart

727
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 5: was warmed when I found out several months ago that

728
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 5: Steve Toath state representative who's from the area his district

729
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 5: State representative district is inside of CD two. I was

730
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 5: very very happy to hear that Steve was going to

731
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 5: run against Dan.

732
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 4: I was there at.

733
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 5: His campaign event just this earlier this week where Steve

734
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 5: announced his run. He had a packed room full of

735
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 5: patriots that are ready to come out and volunteer and

736
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 5: donate and do whatever it takes to get Dan Crenshaw

737
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 5: out of there. Dan Crenshaw has embarrassed himself, not only

738
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 5: with the base, but amongst the donors as well, and

739
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 5: you can see that on his financial report. I think

740
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 5: he's hanging around half a million dollars. You know, there's

741
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 5: another candidate in this race named John bomb. John Bomp

742
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 5: reported four hundred and forty eight thousand dollars race this

743
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 5: past week. We had a Texas Ethics Commission deadline filing

744
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 5: date just a few days ago, and so we're able

745
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,959
Speaker 5: to see who's raising money and all these races. Dan

746
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 5: Crenshaw is not, you know. And the rumor is he

747
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 5: flies first class three times a week from Washington, DC.

748
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 5: So if you add that up, you know, it's about

749
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 5: fifty thousand dollars worth of plane tickets a month. And

750
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 5: we've got a long ways to go until March. So

751
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 5: I guess he's going to be flying on points. I

752
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 5: guess he's going to have to figure out what to

753
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,240
Speaker 5: do with all this money and how he's going to survive.

754
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 5: It's not a good situation to be in. If your

755
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 5: last name is Crinshaw right now, or if you're associated

756
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 5: with the Crenshaw campaign, no one wants to help you,

757
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 5: No one wants to.

758
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 4: Donate to you.

759
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 5: Your name is mud in the state of Texas, and

760
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 5: that's a sad thing to happen, but that's what happens

761
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 5: when an incumbent goes all the way out on the

762
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 5: rails like Dan Crenshaw has, you know, similar to John Cordon.

763
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 5: John Cornon being his US senator is a little bit

764
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 5: smarter in what he says and what he does, but

765
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,920
Speaker 5: it's the same attitude and it's the same donor base.

766
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

767
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 2: What a great a major fall from grace for Dan Crenshaw.

768
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 2: I mean, it feels like it wasn't that long ago

769
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 2: people were talking about him as a potential vice presidential candidate.

770
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 2: His stock really did fall. Now finally, Tom again, this

771
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 2: is what we like to do. We're focusing on this

772
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 2: big red state of Texas and something that might have

773
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 2: national implications. You tell me, you've been telling me that

774
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 2: the Republican powers in Texas, Governor Greg Abbott especially has

775
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 2: been pouring a lot of money into Harris County. You know,

776
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 2: that's the county that includes Houston. That's one of the

777
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 2: bluer areas of Texas, and for years, I guess a

778
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 2: lot of Conservatives and Republicans gave up on winning elections there.

779
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 2: But there's been money going in not only for campaign funding,

780
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 2: but also some Texas state funding to help some certain

781
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 2: projects in those areas in the hopes.

782
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: Of I guess flipping some of it.

783
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 2: Read is this possible ken Houston or at these areas

784
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 2: around it become also read for the state of Texas.

785
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely.

786
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 5: You know, I have never witnessed this amount of money

787
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 5: being poured into Harris County and all my life, you know,

788
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 5: working in politics here and working in the energy industry,

789
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,359
Speaker 5: you know, you can go back decades and decades. It

790
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 5: wasn't too long ago Republicans controlled Harris County. We lost

791
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 5: it in twenty eighteen to the radicals in the Democrat

792
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 5: Party who had silently taken over the party and put

793
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 5: their candidate Lina Hidalgo up and now you know, we're

794
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 5: stuck with basically a DSA county judge, a DSA attorney,

795
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 5: and so when you have a district attorney and a

796
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 5: county judge working together, the corruption gets really deep, really fast,

797
00:39:58,400 --> 00:39:59,800
Speaker 5: and we're having.

798
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 4: To com about this any way we can. Now.

799
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,319
Speaker 5: Greg Abbott has lots of aspirations in the future, but

800
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 5: he has to win his cubatorial campaign, and he has

801
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 5: to crank up the voter turnout and get all of

802
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 5: the voter data for everyone in Harris County done in

803
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 5: a way that hasn't been done in years. So we

804
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,879
Speaker 5: have to take Harris County back. We haven't had any

805
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 5: money to do this in Greg Abbott and his campaign

806
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:25,840
Speaker 5: and his people along with.

807
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,439
Speaker 1: Oh, we may have lost time there for a second there.

808
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 2: This happens sometimes, especially when there's storm's going across the country.

809
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,400
Speaker 2: That's okay, listen, I'm just going to summarize again. You

810
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 2: have Harris County, which includes Houston. That's been a blue

811
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 2: bastion in Texas for a long time. There have been

812
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 2: parts of Houston suburbs. I should say that Republicans did

813
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 2: control until about twenty eighteen, but they lost pretty much

814
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:50,959
Speaker 2: all control of it seven years ago.

815
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of money. Oh here's Tom. Tom,

816
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: you're still with us. You're back with us.

817
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, still with you.

818
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 5: Sorry, we're having connection issue.

819
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: But you know we've got a lot of seconds. Go ahead,

820
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 1: wrap it up.

821
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.

822
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 5: We lost a lot in twenty eighteen, and we're going

823
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:07,280
Speaker 5: to take it back this go around, this election cycle.

824
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 5: And it's because we're investing so much into this county.

825
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 5: It's never been a better time to be a Republican

826
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 5: in Harris County. You know, we feel amazing about our

827
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 5: opportunity here to really change the county better for the

828
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 5: state of Texas, better for everyone, and hopefully set an

829
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:29,360
Speaker 5: example for other liberal counties like Bear County Dallas County

830
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,280
Speaker 5: to go around and fix the rest of the state.

831
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,279
Speaker 5: Keep in mind, we also have redistrict being coming, congressional

832
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 5: redistricting new maps being drawn, So lots of positive news

833
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 5: here for Harris County.

834
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 2: All right, all right, thanks for that update. Again, Texas

835
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 2: the biggest red state of all. We can't just talk

836
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 2: about New York and California for a laugh. We've got

837
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 2: to get our own ducks in a row. At least

838
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 2: if you're a conservative. Tom Slocum. Thank you for joining us,

839
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 2: have a great weekend. Thank you all right, coming up

840
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 2: David Brody and and I will hold another German ethics seminar.

841
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 2: Today's subject the Wall Street Journal and this purported Trump letter.

842
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 1: To Jeffrey Epstein and a lot of things to slip

843
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 1: through here say with us. We'll be right back.

844
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 2: It's a live look at New York Harbor, the tip

845
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,959
Speaker 2: of Manhattan is known as the Battery, and it looks

846
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,880
Speaker 2: like it'd be a halfway decent day here in the

847
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,680
Speaker 2: New York area. Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition.

848
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 2: I'm Jake Novaki. It is a no tie Friday, well

849
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 2: at least for me, of course. The big news breaking

850
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 2: overnight is that President Trump now is now calling for

851
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 2: the release of a number of files because of this

852
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 2: story that you see here in the Wall Street Journal.

853
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:58,360
Speaker 2: And I want you to pay attention to this headline,

854
00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 2: which I've taken care of thanks to the control amount

855
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 2: our editors to quote exactly because it says in the

856
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 2: headline that there was a birthday letter from Donald Trump. Now,

857
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 2: if I were running the Wall Street Journal, if I

858
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,719
Speaker 2: were the executive editor, I would have said signed by

859
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,399
Speaker 2: Donald Trump, or purported to be from Donald Trump. Even

860
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 2: in the headline. Note's a little clunky, but this is

861
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 2: what's going to get them in trouble. I want to

862
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 2: bring in David Brody here. Listen, we could go through

863
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 2: the parts of the letter that have been released, run

864
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 2: them for through chat GPT. It is really I mean,

865
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 2: if Donald Trump wrote that letter, I mean, I got

866
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 2: a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn, but he could

867
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 2: have signed off on it.

868
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 1: All right, maybe, but that seems like a stretch.

869
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 2: And I think that the article, you know, the actual

870
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,480
Speaker 2: body of the article is what is what it is,

871
00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 2: as they say. But this headline, to me, David, this

872
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 2: is the problem. It says in the headline definitively that

873
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 2: it is from Donald Trump.

874
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: That's not good.

875
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 2: If I'm the lawyer for the journal I'm trying to

876
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 2: I got one word for you, settle.

877
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 1: Because President Trump says he's going to sue over this.

878
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 2: We can talk about the political ramifications, but first let's

879
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:00,719
Speaker 2: hit this journalistic aspect of it.

880
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 1: As you know, David, the.

881
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 2: Headlines are almost never written by the actual reporters on

882
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 2: the story. I don't think the reporters on the story

883
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,320
Speaker 2: loved this headline. They might have liked it for the clicks,

884
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 2: but this is what might get them in trouble.

885
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 6: That's exactly right, Jake.

886
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: You summed it all up.

887
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:19,920
Speaker 6: That key word from from Donald Trump really okay, not

888
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 6: exactly as a matter of fact, not even close. And

889
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,280
Speaker 6: so I think this is a slam dunk in court

890
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 6: for President Trump just on that one word alone. Because

891
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:30,799
Speaker 6: if you go into the article, Jake, as we were

892
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 6: talking about, here, where's the where's the there there? If

893
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 6: you will, I mean where where where is it? I

894
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 6: mean I've read the article now three separate times trying

895
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 6: to find it. It's it's not there. They even admit that,

896
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 6: you know, the supposedly allegedly you know that this is

897
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 6: what we don't even know if it's in the current files,

898
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 6: that they don't really know at all exactly who actually

899
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 6: wrote that or said that.

900
00:44:58,560 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: Or if it's even true.

901
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 6: Look, there's a lot of things I want to discuss

902
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:03,320
Speaker 6: about this, and I guess we'll discuss a lot of

903
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 6: it on American Centrise. But you know, here's a couple

904
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,359
Speaker 6: of things that come to mind. So let me get

905
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 6: this straight. First of all, why don't we talk about

906
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 6: the media aspect of this for a moment before we

907
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,360
Speaker 6: get to one last point, which is so so just

908
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 6: so I understand. What I don't understand is what the

909
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 6: news value of this is exactly so he's let's just

910
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:23,879
Speaker 6: say it's true. Let's just go with that for a second.

911
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,319
Speaker 6: Let's say it's true. What's the news value other than

912
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 6: to you know, you know, give Trump another bad headline. Seriously,

913
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 6: I don't know what the news value is. Is the

914
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 6: Epstein files case is? I thought, and I'm being facetious here,

915
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 6: I mean, I thought it was all about the abuse

916
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 6: of underage girls and all of the files associated with

917
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,800
Speaker 6: in all the names. What is this letter from twenty

918
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 6: two years ago have to do with any of that

919
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,399
Speaker 6: other other than to just you know, take a dig

920
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 6: at Trump. Seriously, I don't understand the news value of it.

921
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 6: The only thing I can think of if they could

922
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 6: have said, and this is one of the files currently

923
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 6: that they are not releasing that they've seen now, that

924
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 6: that would be different, that would be different. There would

925
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,479
Speaker 6: be some news aboute But even they admitting the story,

926
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 6: they don't even know if this is part of the

927
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 6: trundle of documents. So I know, I've got a lot

928
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 6: of problem.

929
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:13,760
Speaker 1: But plus, it's been twenty.

930
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,160
Speaker 6: Two years, and you're telling me that this is coming

931
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 6: out after twenty two years when Donald Trump has had

932
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 6: I don't know, maybe an enemy or two, or maybe

933
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 6: tons or maybe millions in the last ten years, especially,

934
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 6: so why is this coming out now? So it just

935
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 6: all doesn't add up. It doesn't add up.
