1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,800 Speaker 1: Do it on the air, he said, quote, we know 2 00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: exactly where the so called Supreme Leader is hiding. He 3 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: is an easy target, but is safe there. 4 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 2: We are not. 5 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: Going to take him out kill at least not for now. 6 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: But we don't want missile shot at civilians or American soldiers. 7 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 1: Our patients is wearing fin You part ways with the 8 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: President on that issue, you think you should be taken out. 9 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 3: Well, what I'm going to I trust President's judgment very much. 10 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 3: I trust his judgment. I think for now is a 11 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 3: term the IATOTA should understand. In Trump world is ever changing. 12 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 3: So what is the President trying to do. He's letting 13 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 3: the IATOTA know if your attack American interest, that's the 14 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 3: end of you and your regime. What am I trying 15 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 3: to do? I'm trying to make the case that ending 16 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 3: Around's nuclear ambitions is not only good for Israel, it's 17 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,639 Speaker 3: good for us and we're they're the weagest they've been 18 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 3: since nineteen seventy nine. This region, since nineteen seventy nine 19 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 3: has been a press This regime has been repressing their people, 20 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 3: trying to destroy Israel. Have American blood on their hands. 21 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 3: I hope it's eliminated. I would like to see this 22 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 3: regime fall, but I'm going to leave it up to 23 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 3: the President as to what to do and when to 24 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 3: do it. But I do know this, if we don't 25 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 3: take out their nuclear program now, we'll all regret it. 26 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 3: We're very close, be all in, mister President, and helping 27 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 3: Israel finish the job. And let's see where we're at 28 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 3: after we neutralize their nuclear program. They're in this array 29 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 3: and they're very dangerous. I don't want to underestimate the 30 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: danger of being involved in these operations, but the danger 31 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 3: of Iran having a nuclear weapon or surviving as a 32 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 3: state sponsor of terrorism is far greater than the danger 33 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 3: of trying to end the threat. So that's the decision 34 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 3: President Trump has to make, and I think he's the 35 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 3: right guy at the right time to make that decision. 36 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 3: But I'm hoping the sun is setting not only on 37 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 3: their nuclear program but the regime itself. Sooner they leave 38 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 3: the world stage, the better the world will be. We 39 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 3: can have true peace in the Mideast only if the 40 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 3: regime falls. 41 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 4: In my view, President Trump, emerging out of the White 42 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 4: House's Situation Room after over an hour of deliberations with 43 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 4: his national security team as he's weighing how to respond 44 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 4: to the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran. Sources telling 45 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 4: CNN that the President is warming to the idea of 46 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 4: using American military assets to strike Iranian nuclear facilities. So 47 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 4: joining me now is someone who has spent quite a 48 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 4: bit of time in that very room with our presidents. 49 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 4: CNN senior military analyst Admiral James Stavritis joins us now, 50 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 4: admiralbal I'm admiral, I'm so grateful to have you here, 51 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 4: and this obviously is a foreign policy challenge that has 52 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 4: been on the table for decades. Really, what would you 53 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 4: be advising the president to do given the facts as 54 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 4: we as members of the public not privy to classified information, 55 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 4: understand them to be. 56 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 5: Right now, let's go back to the situation room itself. 57 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 5: What the president deserves in the situation room is the 58 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 5: best advice. Ultimately, he's going to make the decision. We 59 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 5: elected him to make those kind of truly hard calls, 60 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 5: but he needs unfettered, unvarnished, take the bark off kind 61 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 5: of advice from his cabinet. I hope he's receiving that. 62 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: I think he's. 63 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 5: Probably got three broad courses of action here case he 64 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 5: won is let the Israelis continue to pound away. Another 65 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 5: one is put pressure on the Iranians by moving forces 66 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 5: into the region, sort of set the table for strikes, 67 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 5: but then use that leverage to get back to a negotiation. 68 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 5: That would be option two. And then option three, of course, 69 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 5: would be to conduct a strike. Your reporting indicates he's 70 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 5: leaning toward option three. I just hope he's getting all 71 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 5: of the advice of both the pros and the cons 72 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 5: of each of those three courses of action. 73 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: Rabia would like to see the theocracy gone. I know 74 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: the Emirates would in many other Arab states as well. 75 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: But then there's the question of what happens if there 76 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: is a power vacuum there. We saw all too well 77 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: what happened in Iraq, we saw what happened in Afghanistan 78 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: when the Taliban took over and literally a matter of hours. 79 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: You've got competing factions as well, who would vibe to 80 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 1: take over Iran. On the one side, you've got the 81 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: Crown Prince Razi Polavi, who would like to go in 82 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: as an interim leader. The other side of that fence, 83 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: you've got the NCRI, the National Council for Resistance in Iran, 84 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: which used to be the m e K, which a 85 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: lot of people at Roance, would be worse than the Ayatolas. 86 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: So what steps into the vacuum if the regime falls. 87 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 3: Well, I think what will happen is the Iranian people 88 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,799 Speaker 3: will know freedom for the first time since nineteen seventy nine. 89 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 3: You know, people probably asked that about Hiller in the thirties, 90 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 3: What would happen in Germany if we took him out 91 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 3: in the mid thirties. Well, I wish we had because 92 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 3: we know what happened when they let him stay in power. 93 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 3: And here's what I can say, taking the Iotola's regime 94 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 3: down is a good thing, not a bad thing. 95 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 2: And I'm willing to. 96 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 3: Risk what happens next because I know what's going to 97 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 3: happen if they stay in power. 98 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: But Sir, can you guarantee that can President Trump in 99 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 4: anything I can, can you make the commitment that this would 100 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 4: not lead to a longer war. 101 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 3: I can guarantee you that if the Itola gets a 102 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 3: nuclear weapon, he will use it. I believe that with 103 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,799 Speaker 3: all my heart and soul. So the men and women 104 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 3: who serve they're the ones going, not people answering a poll, 105 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 3: and if you ask them, would you be willing to 106 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 3: risk your life to stop the Ietola from having a 107 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 3: nuclear weapon, all of them would say yes because it 108 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 3: makes their country. Our country is safer. So we live 109 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 3: in a world where you've got to confront problems you 110 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 3: want to avoid World War three, learn the lessons from 111 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 3: World War two. People in World War two appeased Hitler 112 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 3: to the point that it got so much out of hand. 113 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 3: We had a world war and sixty million people got killed. 114 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 3: So we live in a world where you pay now 115 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 3: or you pay life. Let's stop this threat before he 116 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 3: gets a nuclear weapon. Let's end this reign of terror. 117 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 3: Let's do it now. It's not going to take twenty months. 118 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 3: But I can't guarantee you your freedom and your safety 119 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 3: unless we're willing to. 120 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 2: Fight for it. 121 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 3: I can guarantee you this. If we don't fight for 122 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 3: our freedom, we will lose it. 123 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 6: This is the primal scream of a dying regie. Pray 124 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 6: for our enemies, because we're going to medieval. 125 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 7: On these people. 126 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 6: There's not got a free shot. All these networks lying 127 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 6: about the people, the people have had a belly full 128 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 6: of it. I know you don't like gearing that. I 129 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 6: know you try to do everything in the world to 130 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 6: stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's 131 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 6: going to happen. 132 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 8: And where do people like that go to share the 133 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 8: big line? 134 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 6: Mega media? 135 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 3: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of 136 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 3: these people had a conscience. 137 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 6: Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? 138 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 9: If that answer is to save my country, this country will. 139 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 6: Be say war Room. 140 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 7: Here's your host, Stephen K. 141 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 8: Bath. 142 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 6: Tuesday, seventeen June. You're of a Lord, twenty twenty five. 143 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 6: Obviously a very action packed afternoon, and we're packed this afternoon. 144 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 6: We had a show lined up we were going to 145 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 6: do talk about a lot of finance and the good 146 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 6: things that are coming out of President Trump's administration economically. 147 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 6: We've got a couple of Treasury officials from the World Bank, 148 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 6: Philip Patrick, all that. We're going to get that in. 149 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 6: But we obviously got to talk about what happened the 150 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 6: National Security Council today. President Trump came back from Calgary. 151 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 6: I think partially he was bored. Number two. He had 152 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 6: to get back to deal with the situation at hand. 153 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 6: They did go through alternatives. It's pretty obvious at least 154 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 6: one alternative is to consider strike, at least some sort 155 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 6: of strike, because they're pre positioning massive assets in the region, 156 00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 6: both naval assets and air assets, both support logistics assets, 157 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 6: it's and also combat aircraft. That has to be viewed 158 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 6: as at least negotiating leverage. If President Trump is to 159 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 6: is to try to force the hand, which looks like 160 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 6: it's either between a full capitulation on the nuclear program 161 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 6: or maybe even regime change, as this seems to be 162 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 6: changing every minute. Let's go to Jack Basobic. Jack, you're 163 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 6: gonna be on Tim Poole tonight, is that correct? People 164 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 6: can see you on the Tim Poole Show. 165 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 8: That's right, Steven to the warm boss s.

Obviously, Then the range of alternatives President 171 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 6: Trump's looked at is his current position is, hey, they 172 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 6: can I mean, his constant position is they cannot have 173 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 6: a nuclear weapon. I've told him they can't have a 174 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 6: nuclear weapon. He's tried to negotiate. They kind of try 175 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 6: to tap him along. He wasn't prepared to be tapped along. 176 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 6: The Israelis did what they did. Now we are where 177 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 6: we are looks like the range of alternatives today, Jack 178 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 6: clearly has at least, I mean, you can just tell 179 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 6: from the outside action. They haven't released any statement, but 180 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 6: clearly a lot of assets are being moved around. We 181 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 6: had Admiral stav Ritas there in the cold open saying 182 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 6: that's to give him a range of alternatives. Admiral stav 183 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 6: Ritas is correct. This is what he's trying to do 184 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 6: is have options, to have what we call optionality. Jack, 185 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 6: give us your assessment of the options you think are 186 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 6: out there. 187 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 8: We'll see if I think there are a number of options. Obviously, 188 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 8: these range from the United States military being ordered to 189 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 8: take runs at the political leadership or even the energy 190 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 8: or infrastructure of Iran, all of which are capable, all 191 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 8: of which are reachable from our air bases throughout the goals, 192 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 8: including Prince Alton Air Base in Saudi Arabia. There's stealth, 193 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 8: there's multi role fighters there at thirty five sixteen F 194 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 8: twenty twos. There's also the bombers to the fifty twos 195 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 8: down at Diego, Garcia. And of course there's been a 196 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 8: lot of talk about the United States coming in and 197 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 8: having the weaponry and the firepower to take out this 198 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,559 Speaker 8: underground base over at four dough which is built for 199 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 8: this purpose. Because Israel does not have the bunker busting 200 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 8: bombs or the mops. These gb used these gravity bombs, 201 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 8: which the israelities do not have, but the United States 202 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 8: certainly does. This is why they were built for this purpose, 203 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 8: and of course it was also what the bomb was 204 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 8: designed to do. This is part of the escalatory ladder 205 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 8: and the tit for tet that we've seen in the 206 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 8: directing world, that's hardening world that the ir Adiance and 207 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 8: some of these places up there. This is why Iron 208 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 8: has their shots shot drones underground for example, and all 209 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 8: these other various facilities, and so these options are all 210 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 8: available to the United States. There's also a range of 211 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 8: options from intelligent sharing to asymmetric warfare, so intelligent sharing, 212 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 8: shutting down electronics, going after their communications, going after their media. 213 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 8: There's also a huge range that can be done there 214 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 8: as well, and it really all remains to President Trump 215 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 8: what he wants to order happened here. We're waiting to 216 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 8: hear that readout from the National Security Council meeting which 217 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 8: was told and it just a little while ago at 218 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 8: the White House. 219 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 6: Jack walk people through what the gravity of bomb exactly. 220 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 6: The mechanism hasn't actually work. It's kind of unique, and 221 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 6: this is why people are saying, well, maybe you put 222 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 6: it on a you know, a C four, if you 223 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 6: put it on a big one of our big transport 224 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 6: aircraft and have the Israelis pushed out the back, or 225 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 6: you put it on an Israeli aircraft. Walk me through 226 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 6: what do we have here and why the size of 227 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 6: ours are are much bigger than there is correct, yes. 228 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 8: Yes much. Russia has been much larger. Russia has been 229 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 8: using a version of this technology in Ukraine for quite 230 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 8: some time now. And essentially what the Russians are using 231 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 8: for with a smaller version of it is it What 232 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 8: it does is it turns your It turns your use 233 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 8: the parlance, you earned your dumb bombs into smart bombs 234 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 8: because you're up What you're doing is you're able to 235 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 8: upgrade them to a point where they have a rudimentary 236 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 8: type of guidance which is far more far superior simply 237 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 8: just dropping it away, you know, bombs away as as 238 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 8: as we know. And so they're carrying that, you know, 239 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 8: a guidance system, they're monitored, it's controlled externally guided bomb, 240 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 8: you know, depending on the given weight, that's how much 241 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,719 Speaker 8: explosives that it has on it has radio and this 242 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 8: this technology has been around for quite some time, but 243 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 8: it's really been plugged up through World War Two and 244 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 8: then even after throughout the Cold War where they've been used. 245 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 8: And it's only been in the Gulf War, the Ukraine 246 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 8: War and on that we've seen them really use now. 247 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 8: And so this is it's it's sort of in the 248 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 8: way that I think of it as it is it 249 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 8: precision guided munitions. It is it is not quite precision 250 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 8: guided mission munition, but it is a it is a 251 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 8: guided bomb, is the best way to think about it. 252 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 6: The difference between taking out the nuclear program and making 253 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 6: sure they have no capacity to refine material and also 254 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 6: even maybe some of the ballistic missile technology they need 255 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 6: versus regime change, give me a minute on that. 256 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 8: Before you go to break well, Steve, this could be everything. 257 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 8: So taking out President Trump has been very clear that 258 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 8: he is against Iran's nuclear weapons program. But Iran's regime 259 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 8: depends on far more than just that program. They had, 260 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 8: the IRGC, they have, the Iranian army, they've got, and 261 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 8: of course all of the oil pipelines and the deals 262 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 8: that they have with the Chinese Communist Party. That's really 263 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 8: where that power relies upon. You take out the regime, 264 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 8: and that's going to open up a whole hornet's death, 265 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 8: possibly civil war. This is bigger than Iraq, bigger than Afghanistan, 266 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 8: bigger than Syria, bigger than Libya. 267 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 6: The shocking thing, though, I think, for a military point 268 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 6: of view, is that, given all their bluster, the Israelis 269 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 6: did take a complete air supremacy. Air superiority first, and 270 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 6: air supremacy. So far, it doesn't seem like there's any 271 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 6: you know, combat aircraft up or the combat aircraft gets up. 272 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 6: Their air defence's systems got destroyed about ninety days ago. 273 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 6: But right now, don't I think in President Trump, of 274 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 6: course you use the Royal we we we have control 275 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 6: of the airspace over Tehran. Right that's never really a 276 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 6: good sign. All of a sudden, you're you're in it. 277 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 6: I tell you what, Jack, and you hang on a minute. 278 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 6: I know you're hanging out, going out to temple.

Next Jack Bosobic talking about the economy, 294 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 6: talking about you know, I got a guy from you know, 295 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 6: the formerhead of the World Bank and one of the 296 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 6: under secretaries under President Trump in the first term, Philip 297 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 6: Patrick's going to join us. Obviously, gold is kind of 298 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 6: on fire now, but also there there there are many economics, 299 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 6: not just geopolitical economic Iran is one of the most 300 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 6: important oil and gas producers in the world. They they 301 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 6: provide I think Jack, you would agree that Chinese commis 302 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 6: party anywhere between one point five and two and a 303 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 6: half million barrels per day, either sold directly or through 304 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 6: the black market. They're the principal provider to the CCP 305 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 6: of energy. Those oil fields and there's discussion of the 306 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 6: oil fields may come into play. I think Cutter and 307 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 6: other nations around the world own. I think the oil 308 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 6: fields that kind of go in Bajra, that's part of 309 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 6: us in Iraq. Part of it's in Iran. Of course 310 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 6: that part down by Bajra since it's tons of Sheite Muslims. 311 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 6: Ever since the Iraq War, they kind of claim it 312 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 6: for their own. How big a deal is the geoeconomics 313 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 6: here of of the situation in Iran. 314 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 8: Well, Steve, the idea of the geoeconomics is key. And 315 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 8: you know we say on human events daily all the 316 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 8: time that when it comes to geopolitics, it's sort of 317 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 8: like you know, the French have a phrase them, you know, 318 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 8: whenever you're trying to figure out something, look for the 319 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 8: look for the woman. Well, in geopolitics we say petrol, 320 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 8: look for the petrol, look for the oil and so 321 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 8: in this right petrol, you don't feel that from me, man, 322 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 8: and that's all me. 323 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 6: I'm gonna do it as an homage, all right, soodok 324 00:16:59,640 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 6: ob be. 325 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 8: You know that's that's one of the fastest ways that 326 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 8: could lead to this regime change, civil war kind of 327 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 8: breakout that we're talking about. But if you want to 328 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 8: talk about the global oil market impact of a massive 329 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 8: sudden supply shock, we're talking immediate. You know, depending on 330 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 8: the broader market conditions. You're talking one hundred dollars barrel oil, 331 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 8: one hundred and fifty dollars barrow futures market, you're going 332 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 8: to get immediate reaction, huge voluntility stocks, commodities, and you 333 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 8: know what, you're not sure what's going to happen. What 334 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 8: OPEC decides to Does OPEK want to cut does OPEK 335 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 8: want to keep flooding the system? The US EU, that's 336 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 8: going to be a lot of pressure then to release 337 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 8: oil from strategic reserves. Of course we're Trump's been trying 338 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 8: to fill by the way, our strategic oil reserve.

Joe Lavournier, 354 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 6: Special Counsel to the to the Secretary of Treasury, Sir. 355 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 6: Today Scott Besson had an interview would put up an 356 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 6: interview with Maranda Devine. He talked about the increase in 357 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 6: blue collar wages. It's awesome analysis you've done. Can you 358 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,479 Speaker 6: walk us through exactly, give us the receipts, give us 359 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 6: the backup, what's actually happening, and more importantly, why is 360 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 6: it happening. 361 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 10: Sure, So, Steve, the if you look at the President Trump, 362 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 10: it's the first term and second term. What we looked 363 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 10: at when I worked for President Trump in the first 364 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 10: term is blue what we call blue collar wages, which 365 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 10: are non super visory production workers. These aren't people that 366 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 10: are part of the professional managerial class. It's not Wall Street, 367 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 10: it's main Street. It's the backbone of Main Street. 368 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 11: And what we've. 369 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,719 Speaker 10: Noticed in this first five months of this Trump administration 370 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 10: is that the annualized increase and real blue collar wages 371 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 10: is almost two percent. The next closest growth we had 372 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 10: of that magnitude in the first five months of administration 373 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 10: was Trump one point zero. So it's remarkable the wage 374 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 10: gains he's has. And that's a function really of a 375 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 10: very pro growth, supply side led set of policies where 376 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 10: food and energy costs have been trending down significantly from 377 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 10: where they were, and as Secretary Besson has said, as 378 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 10: there are fewer illegal workers that are artificially depressing wages 379 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 10: keeping nominal wages high, so you have a double whanne 380 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 10: of falling inflation. The inflation numbers have been absolutely stellar. 381 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,479 Speaker 10: At the same time nominal wages have been strong, So 382 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 10: your real wages are expanding, increasing purchasing power for the 383 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 10: everyday worker. 384 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 6: I want to go back because we did this before 385 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 6: in the in the tax cut in seventeen, and it 386 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,479 Speaker 6: came to fruition in eighteen and really in nineteen that 387 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 6: I think it was the fall in nineteen you had 388 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 6: the tremendous gains in blue collar versus white collar, non 389 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 6: college graduate versus college graduates. Is that essentially the same 390 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 6: thing here. We haven't got to the extension of those 391 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 6: taxes are still there, But is that what's going on? 392 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 6: Is it anything about the investment in jobs coming back? 393 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 6: I know a big part of this has got to 394 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 6: be an immigration. What do you think is actually the 395 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 6: big drivers here in back of this? 396 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 10: So you're correct if you look at the big effects 397 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 10: obviously with TICHA was in eighteen and nineteen. If just 398 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 10: to put it in broader sense, from seventeen to nineteen, 399 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 10: those first three Trump years, real media and household income 400 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 10: was up almost eight thousand dollars, more than double what 401 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 10: had been in the prior sixteen years of both Republican 402 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 10: and Democrat administrations. Wow. In the One Big Beautiful bill, 403 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 10: the tax expensing, the likelihood that we get well, we 404 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 10: got one hundred percent expensing on capex back to President 405 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 10: Trump inauguration day, combined with the deduction of plant equipment factories, 406 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 10: that is hugely supply side generative. And what that means, Steve, 407 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 10: is that you're going to get strong productivity growth because 408 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 10: you've got capital deepening. You're giving workers more tools to 409 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 10: produce the goods and services that people want. If you 410 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 10: have higher productivity, you have higher living standards, you have 411 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 10: higher wages. So this bill, once it passes, will codify 412 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 10: and further implement what was built off of Trump one 413 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 10: point zero. And I'm optimistic we'll get faster growth, will grower, deficit, 414 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 10: will grow deficit so that they will fall relative to GDP, 415 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,120 Speaker 10: and most importantly, Main Street will thrive. I mean, that's 416 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 10: the way the theory is supposed to work. 417 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 2: It's the way it worked in. 418 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 10: Trump one point zero and by all indications, were off 419 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 10: to a great start so far in twenty five. 420 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 6: Great start. And this shows why the immigration policy seal 421 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 6: on the border, in the mass deportation at the beginning, 422 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 6: that has all worked out. And remember President Trump's focus 423 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 6: and this comes malpass was in the first administration. Scott 424 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 6: Bessett now is Secretary Treasury. Everybody's focused on the working class, 425 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 6: the middle class from main street in a supply side 426 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 6: tax cut, and also to make sure that everything we 427 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,719 Speaker 6: can do to increase productivity is there. As Dave Brett 428 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 6: is often there warning us Joe real quickly, what are 429 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 6: you doing? You're one of the great gats inside Treasury. 430 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 6: You've got an incredible team over there. What is your titland? 431 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 6: What are you doing for the secretary every day? 432 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 2: Well, this is my tenth day. 433 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 10: So I come from Wall Street and I had the 434 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 10: pleasure of getting to meet know the Secretary a little 435 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 10: bit in my prior private life. I'm helping out in 436 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 10: anything they really they want me to do, Steve, all 437 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 10: things sort of macroeconomics and policy related. And it's been 438 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 10: ten days but it's been fun and hoping I get 439 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 10: to come on with you again and I'll have been 440 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 10: better news to report the next time I'm on. 441 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 6: Well, it's pretty good news today, Joe. Thank you so much. Joe. 442 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 6: Do you have social media? Where do people go to 443 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 6: find out more about your work? And which you do? 444 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 6: Put this up so people lowick. 445 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 10: Yeah, on my private role, it was at Lavornyanomics. We'll 446 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 10: see if we can make it an official government role. 447 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 10: But you've probably see me a little bit more maybe 448 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 10: on TV and radio than social media. But we've got 449 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 10: to we've got to fine tune that. 450 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 6: Thank you brother, look forward to get all your all 451 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 6: this up on social media. Joe Lavorgnier, thank you over there, 452 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 6: one of the team that Scott Beston's pulling together. Really 453 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 6: good news. So Malpass before you you you've got some 454 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 6: observations about the FED, as you often do, David, you 455 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 6: were one of the big, one of the big guns 456 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 6: for President Trump in the first term over Treasury. Then 457 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 6: you head of the World Bank. First off, just how 458 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 6: concerned are you about particularly as this thing starts to 459 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 6: spread in Iran and whatever can happen sabotage. They had 460 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 6: a thing today that there was a vessel stuck in 461 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 6: the mouth of the Straits or horror moves, and I 462 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 6: can tell you having a sailed in and out there 463 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 6: on a destroyers, it's not that big. How concerned are 464 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,679 Speaker 6: you for global economics of what's going on in Persia 465 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 6: right now? 466 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,719 Speaker 2: Of course concerned, But the US is powerful and President 467 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 2: Trump has been really clear that's peace through strength. And 468 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 2: also they can't have a nuclear weapon, so there are 469 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 2: exit you know, there's ways, exit ramps that they can use, 470 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 2: and if not, then I think there is power to 471 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 2: control the situation. I think we should really make a 472 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 2: distinction between that meaning necessary steps to control bad outcomes, 473 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 2: that's peace through strength, and then turn to allowing a 474 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 2: free market economy in the US to really expand. And 475 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 2: so in my mind there's kind of a connection. There 476 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 2: is a connection to the Trump plan. The program is 477 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 2: to have the economy be really strong so that we 478 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 2: have enough strength in the US especially, but globally to 479 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 2: really see peace breakout. And he's been clear. 480 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 6: David President's been pretty critical of pow Over at the Fed. 481 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 6: Wall Street Journal's got a piece. What is your take? 482 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 6: You're somebody the President would always turn to and ask 483 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 6: about these situations. What do you think about the FED 484 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 6: and interest rates? Are they ahead of the curve or 485 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 6: behind the curve? 486 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 10: Sir? 487 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 2: They're behind the curve, and they're often behind the curve 488 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 2: and we go from inflation to deflation because they're driving 489 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 2: through the rear view mirror. Their models are really antiquated. 490 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 2: These are forty fifty year old models. That basically say 491 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 2: the US economy can't grow too faster, it'll be inflationary, 492 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 2: and that's just wrong. There's productivity growth. You just heard 493 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 2: Joel Lavornia talking about that as the major strategy. If 494 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 2: we can get manufacturing going in the US and a 495 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 2: small business is really cranking, then it's not going to 496 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 2: be an inflationary economy. It's going to be a growth economy. 497 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 2: So that's within reach. There is this clear PA path. 498 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 2: The data is, you know, is clear that there's room 499 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 2: for the FED to cut. That's the retail sales that 500 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 2: were negative today, the job growth in May, in the 501 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 2: household survey was weak. We've got the prime rate at 502 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 2: seven percent? What are you going to do with that? 503 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 2: And why is that where the US is sitting? So 504 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 2: I think if the FED is clear and Trump has 505 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 2: been that we defend the dollar, we have the dollar 506 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 2: as the reserve currency. If the world believes that they'll 507 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,159 Speaker 2: beat a path to our door in terms of buying 508 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: buying US debt dollar denominated debt and driving down interustrates, 509 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 2: I think that's within. 510 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 6: Hang for one second because I want to go back 511 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 6: over this, and I got a couple of the questions. 512 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 6: Philip Patrick from Virgin golds All's going to join us. 513 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 6: Got David Maupass from ahead of the World Bank in 514 00:26:52,280 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 6: the Worl room. Short commercial break, use your Stephen K. 515 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 6: Ban So brother mountpess And by the way, David was 516 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 6: under Secretary for International one of the most important jobs 517 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 6: in the Treasury Department for President Trump in the first term, 518 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 6: and then head of the World Bank put there by 519 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 6: President Trump. David when you just said the models that 520 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 6: the FED uses, because President Trump, let's be blunt, He's 521 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 6: not particularly happy with Lewis Powell. He's kind of all 522 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 6: over the FED. He keeps saying they're missing the window 523 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 6: here when you say the models are forty years old, clunky. 524 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 6: Doesn't the FED Reserve, I don't know, have like eight 525 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 6: thousand people over there. It's a huge organization, is it not. 526 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 2: That that's right? Maybe seven hundred, I don't know. PhDs 527 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 2: dumb and dumber. But the Phillips curve is the idea 528 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 2: that there's somehow a tradeoff between unemployment and inflation and 529 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: you have to have hire one to get lower the other. 530 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 2: And that is you know, the So the FED is 531 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,160 Speaker 2: constantly talking about his mandate that it's supposed to have 532 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 2: price stability and full employment, and somehow those are in opposition. 533 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 2: They work totally together. If you have price stability, you'll 534 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 2: have more jobs in the economy. That's that's what Trump 535 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 2: is talking about, That's what Scott Beson is talking about today, 536 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 2: even of how how do you get real wages up 537 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:27,919 Speaker 2: if the FED is always leaning against it. This is 538 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 2: because you know, if you think about the last forty years, 539 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 2: there's been innovation everywhere except that the Fed. They're still 540 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 2: talking about monetorism, which is ages old, and they're not. 541 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 2: And remember, the FED not only sets interest rates, but 542 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 2: they also regulate banks, and they do it poorly because 543 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 2: they fail and the small businesses can't get credit. And 544 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 2: the FED has this giant balance sheet that's been horribly managed. 545 00:28:54,960 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 2: They bought nine trillion dollars of US government bonds at 546 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 2: the very trough when yields were the lowest, so they've 547 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: got this unrealized loss on their books of maybe a 548 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: trillion dollars. So it's just mistakes all around. Old models. 549 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 6: The last thing you said about us being the prime 550 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 6: reserve currency, we actually are very focused on the rear reset. 551 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 6: We've done a whole special of this We've got a 552 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 6: whole thing we've done in the last couple of years 553 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 6: called the End of the Dollar Empire. We put it 554 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 6: out an installments. We got the seventh installment about the 555 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 6: rear reset. Walk me through what you said in the 556 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 6: last minute of the previous segment about making sure that 557 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 6: there's demand for dollar denominated bonds and that we remain 558 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 6: the prime reserve currency, sir. 559 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 2: Even today you saw Europe saying they want to have 560 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 2: more room for the Euro on people's shelf space. Well, 561 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 2: that is not really the way to have the world 562 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 2: be safe. You need the dollar to be the backbone. 563 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 2: And that's also important for crypto and digitalization of the 564 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 2: world economy. If you look at stable coins, they need 565 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 2: to be in the US dollars and regulated by the US, 566 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 2: not by some island. I don't know your view on that, Steven. 567 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 2: People can have different views, but I really think that 568 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 2: we can allow and permit this innovation that is the 569 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: core of the US economy. All that has to happen 570 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 2: is Treasury and the Fed say they plan to have 571 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 2: the dollar be the core of the global economy for 572 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 2: decades and decades. That would bring down interest rates right there. 573 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 2: If they would say it, but the PhD economists all 574 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: think that the currencies should just float around with no 575 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 2: anchor at all. I think that can be fixed pretty easily. 576 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 6: David Malpass. We hope to have you on here a lot. 577 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 6: Where do people get you on social media where they go. 578 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 2: On Twitter or x at David R. Mouthpass. 579 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 6: Thanks Steve Brother, thank you, thank you for coming on. 580 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 6: Look forward to having you back. I think one of 581 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 6: the things we're gonna do is this clearly this conflict 582 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 6: between Israel and Iran, and we're picking up to see 583 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 6: an and just report that the Okay, maybe that was 584 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 6: a false thing. 585 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 11: I don't want to. 586 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 6: Okay, Christy Noam is Christie Noam. We'll get more of it. 587 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 6: But the Secretary of Homeland Security has been taken I 588 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 6: think to a local Washington hospital and ambulance. We don't 589 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 6: know anything more than that. As soon as we know more, 590 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 6: we will report it. Philip Patrick, one of my favorite people. 591 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 6: You had Malpash right there saying what we needed to 592 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 6: do to make sure that we remained the prime reserve currency, 593 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 6: our favorite as you as you know, the The Financial 594 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 6: Times of London had this article right about about gold. 595 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 6: If Denver could put it up. I want to make 596 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 6: sure it's up. Got Philip Patrick on it. It starts 597 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 6: with it starts with one of my favorite quotes, Phillips, 598 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 6: and the headline is amazing. As you know, Philip, we've 599 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 6: been working together for four years now, over four years, 600 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 6: and we talked about doing the end of the Dollar 601 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 6: Empire to make sure people understood the importance of the 602 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 6: dollar as the prime reserve currency and how that was 603 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 6: so important. And then what backed that up now the 604 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 6: Financial Times of London that they does this big story 605 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 6: how gold became the world's refuge from uncertainty, which is 606 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 6: kind of the thesis that we've been talking about for 607 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 6: four years. The sub headline in an error where core 608 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 6: assumptions about the global economy are being questioned. Gold has 609 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,479 Speaker 6: once more become an anchor, especially for central banks, as 610 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:40,239 Speaker 6: you've reported for four years here. But the lead paragraph though, 611 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 6: talks about one of my favorite quotes is by John 612 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 6: Maynard Keynes, who was the economist that really after the war, 613 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 6: after World War One, they all kind of you went 614 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 6: into Keynesianism, which hadn't been really grasped before, which meant 615 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 6: bigger government's, bigger government, stimuluts, which we're living through that too. 616 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 6: Want to have tree and dollar two treeon dollar deficits 617 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 6: here the year. We say that is a Keynesian stimulus 618 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 6: to an economy, and Kines called gold a barbarous relic 619 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 6: of an ancient world. Sir, So what break down the 620 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 6: financial times and really the financial times coming to understand 621 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 6: what we've been kind of laying at for this audience 622 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 6: for four years, sir. 623 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 9: Yeah, Look, I mean, as you say, we've been talking 624 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 9: about this for a long time. First of all, we can, 625 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 9: I think, clearly show that John Maynard Keynes was incorrect 626 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 9: calling gold a barbarous relic. Seeing gold this century outperform 627 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 9: almost every other asset class, I. 628 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 7: Think it's very clear. But I thought a very good article. 629 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 9: It was summarizing a lot of what we've talked about 630 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 9: over as you said, the last few years, and that 631 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 9: is slowly we are disincentivizing the world to hold our dollars. 632 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 9: Right after nineteen forty six, what incentivized the world to 633 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 9: use dollars was redeemability. Right It was the only currency 634 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 9: in the world that central banks could hand into the 635 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 9: Treasury Department and get gold back in return. Following seventy one, 636 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 9: it was the Petro dollar agreement. Right, the world had 637 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 9: to use dollars to buy oil. Forty percent of the 638 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 9: world's oil supply came from Opek. It guaranteed this demand. 639 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 2: Right. 640 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 7: Since then, it's really been stability. 641 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 9: Right, The dollar, as far as currencies go, has been 642 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 9: the most stable. All of that being said, the world 643 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 9: has been incentivized to hold our US dollar. Well, what 644 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 9: have we seen really since the Biden administration. Right, We've 645 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 9: seen devaluation of currency. We've seen weaponization of our currency. 646 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,439 Speaker 9: Central banks around the world are looking at dollars now 647 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 9: more as a liability. There's an asset. Even Trump's policies. Listen, 648 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 9: Trump's been trying to thread the needle. Things like tariffs. 649 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 9: They tell nations around the world. Look, we understand why 650 00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 9: he implemented them. We have to boost domestic manufacturing. But 651 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 9: tariffs have negative impacts as well. They force countries to 652 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 9: diversify away from our currency, even the big beautiful bill. Right, 653 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 9: Trump was elected with a mandate, I said to you 654 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 9: before I'm torn on this, Right, you know, he was 655 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 9: elected with a clear mandate to shore. 656 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 7: Up the borders. 657 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 9: This stuff is expensive, but it comes with consequences, Right, 658 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 9: That is an explosion in deficits, Right, the dollar again 659 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 9: less attractive to foreign investors. What about the revenge tax 660 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 9: within the big beautiful bill? 661 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 7: Right? 662 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 9: The Financial Times reference that specifically. I understand why Trump 663 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 9: has it in there, Right, it's one more weapon that 664 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 9: Trump can use to balance global trade. But I also 665 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 9: understand that as a foreign investor, right, that's a concerning 666 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 9: thing for me. So my concern now is not that 667 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 9: we lose global reserve currency status, but that we move 668 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 9: into a more multipolar world. Right, are the currencies being used, 669 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 9: demand for the dollar waning longer term? Longer term that 670 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 9: can put our position as global reserve currency under threat. So, 671 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 9: you know, we've been talking about this for a long time. 672 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 9: I think Biden put President Trump into a corner. We're 673 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 9: trying to fight our way out, but it's a very, 674 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:13,839 Speaker 9: very tough bat. 675 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 6: What's the hardest thing he has to do? Because I'm 676 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 6: gonna expand the conversation to talk about this current war 677 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 6: that's going on, and particularly if it expands. But as 678 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 6: you sit here today with all the policy levers President 679 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 6: Trump is trying to do, and you just heard Joe 680 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 6: Lavarnier from Treasury talk about some good news we're hearing 681 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 6: at the get go right, particularly about blue collar wages. 682 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 6: What is the hardest thing you think President Trump and 683 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 6: bestn't have to do to thread the needle. 684 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 7: It's it's such a it's a very tough question. 685 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 9: If I had the answer to that, I may be 686 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 9: sitting next to. 687 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 6: Both of them. Hold it. We had the answer, Philip, 688 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 6: Patrick and Steeve, I wouldn't be doing this. Philip wouldn't 689 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 6: be there. We'd have we'd have the Patrick Bannon hedge fire. 690 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 9: There's no question about it. Look, I think it's all 691 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 9: about creating incentives. And this is where politics and economics cross. 692 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 9: If you ask me, as an economist what we have 693 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 9: to do, the answer is not politically viable. 694 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 10: Right. 695 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 9: What we have to do really is curb spending. We 696 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 9: have to sort of generate more revenue. We've got to 697 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 9: tighten the belt buckle. Ultimately, that's the way to do it. 698 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 9: President Trump's strategy is a riskier one, right, and that 699 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 9: is to grow the economy and to do it at 700 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 9: a rapid rate, faster than debt. But I don't envy 701 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 9: President Trump's position. I've said before, if I left with 702 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 9: his legacy in twenty twenty I wouldn't be back again 703 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 9: because this is a much more difficult fight he has 704 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 9: in front of him. But he's got to balance things 705 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 9: in a way that I think is going to be 706 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 9: difficult to do. But he's got to incentivize Listen, I 707 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 9: thought the trade deal he struck with the United Kingdom was. 708 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 7: Genius, right. 709 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 9: That was a way to sort of work China out 710 00:37:56,320 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 9: of crucial supply chains whilst sort of maintaining good relationships 711 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 9: with our European counterparts. I think that should be the 712 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 9: blueprint for any future trade deals. 713 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 7: So it's a tough one. 714 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 9: I think curving deficit spending is going to be key, 715 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 9: Trying to get a handle on the debt's going to 716 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 9: be key, and growing the economy is going to be key. 717 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 9: But we're in a very tough position. Look, it wouldn't 718 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 9: surprise me and you and I have said this for 719 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 9: a long time. Twenty years from now people take an 720 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 9: economics course, there's going to be discussions about the sixty 721 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 9: year experiment from nineteen seventy to twenty thirty with a 722 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 9: global free floating unpacked currencies and how it failed. Right, 723 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 9: And I think ultimately that is the biggest problem. This 724 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,439 Speaker 9: is how every empire in history is collapsed and we're 725 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:42,720 Speaker 9: heading down that path. 726 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 6: Let's go back to that because the Financial Times talks 727 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 6: about that too, and talking Aboutcains that there was a 728 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 6: system in place really from the post war period given 729 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 6: the devastation. Remember they didn't have a system in place really, 730 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 6: you know, from World War One to the Second World War? 731 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 6: Is that people forget it wasn't just World War One 732 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:10,240 Speaker 6: that caused World War II. Caines came to prominence because 733 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 6: he wrote a book about the Versailles Treaty and he 734 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 6: called it The Economic Consequences of the Peace, where he 735 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 6: kind of forecasted that, hey, there's some bast things going 736 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 6: to come, particularly about reparations and debt in Germany and 737 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 6: some of these countries not being able to pay this off, 738 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 6: that maybe the terms were too tough and people didn't 739 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 6: listen to him. And of course it was when people 740 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 6: asked about how Hitler came to power. Hitler came to 741 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 6: power because of hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic. It really 742 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 6: destroyed the currency. And when you destroy person, when you 743 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 6: destroy a country's currency, you really destroyed the fabric of 744 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 6: the country, do you not, Philip Patrick. 745 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 9: Yeah, absolutely. I don't think any historian disagrees with that position. Today, 746 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 9: the Treaty of Basai put the German people in dire strait, 747 00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 9: and desperate people do desperate things. 748 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 6: I question about that, Philip, Can you hang over a second. 749 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 6: I want to hold you for another block. I get 750 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 6: some of the questions I asked you about the current situation, 751 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 6: particularly as President Trump goes through and looks through a 752 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 6: various alternatives to deal with this situation in Persia. I 753 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 6: don't know if we're going to hear from the President 754 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 6: or not tonight or not, maybe even a press avail, 755 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 6: et cetera. A lot of rumors going around. We're going 756 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 6: to try to track them all down. Short commercial break. 757 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 6: You got Philip Patrick or Birch Gold.

Use your host Stephen K. Bas Okay, Philip Patrick, 766 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 6: the geopolitical concern flight to quality, we've had, you know, 767 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 6: it's about volatility, it's about safe havens. There's all kinds 768 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 6: of rumor tonight that President Trump may come and address 769 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 6: the nation. We have not heard anything official, right. We 770 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 6: know that people are reviewing a range of alternatives, including 771 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,959 Speaker 6: continue on negotiations, but give them a playme or tradeing now. 772 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 6: But if this continues down the path, and clearly Israel 773 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 6: is going to keep pounding the Persians, and the Persians 774 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 6: going to pound back. How and if the oil assets 775 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 6: and resources get hit down there by Bajra and those 776 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,359 Speaker 6: massive fields down there, what's your sense of where this 777 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 6: could head as far as financial markets in particularly gold. 778 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 9: Look, I think it's in our interest for President Trump 779 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 9: to try and end this as quickly as Possiblebviously some 780 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,320 Speaker 9: of it, a lot of it's out of its control. 781 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 9: But the longer this goes on, the worst it is 782 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 9: for global financial markets. We saw an immediate response, obviously 783 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 9: from energy markets. We saw a seven and a half 784 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 9: percent spike in oil prices last Friday on the back 785 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 9: of that. Obviously, gold the traditional safe haven when US 786 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 9: treasuries are not spiked as well. It drove up one 787 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 9: and a half percent on the back of that news alone. 788 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:31,240 Speaker 9: From a broader economic perspective, regional instability adds to fuel 789 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 9: the existing inflation that's happening here in the United States 790 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,319 Speaker 9: and around the world, and it comes at a time 791 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 9: when major economies are already strained. Right, Europe's in recession, 792 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 9: China's growth is spluttering, and our own GDP in the 793 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 9: first quarter was negative zero point three percent. So I 794 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 9: would say geopolitical shocks like this, they don't create an 795 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 9: economic crisis, but they put pressure on financial system and 796 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 9: make the craps worse at a time when we really 797 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 9: can't afford to So this isn't welcome used domestically for 798 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 9: the economy. But I don't see where this goes. We've 799 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 9: had sanctions on Iran since the nineteen seventies. They don't 800 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 9: appear to be stopping them pursuing a new clear weapon. 801 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 7: I don't know. 802 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 9: Again, geopolitics is not my forte. From an economic standpoint, 803 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,440 Speaker 9: We've got to end this as quickly as possible, otherwise 804 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 9: it's going to be the catalyst for the Fed to 805 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 9: keep interest rates where they are. That's the last thing 806 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,319 Speaker 9: we need from a debt standpoint and from a growth 807 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 9: standpoint in. 808 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 6: An era of future instability. And you just mentioned that, Hey, 809 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 6: people are going to study from nineteen seventy one to 810 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 6: twenty thirty when you kind of had this floating, you 811 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 6: had fiat currencies out there right without anything really backing 812 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 6: it up. In the article they talk about central banks 813 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 6: have had this kind of fascination with gold here recently, 814 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 6: and that's one of the reasons that the price of gold, 815 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 6: it's one that we told people, it's not the price, 816 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 6: it's the process. You got to learn at what's in 817 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,760 Speaker 6: back of it. That's been very strong demand by central banks, 818 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,959 Speaker 6: and we got the Bricks Nations. In fact, you guys 819 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 6: will be down there reporting from down there in Rio 820 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 6: for the real reset. What is your anticipation of the 821 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 6: appetite of the central banks to continue to purchase gold 822 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 6: at kind of the rates that they've been purchasing it 823 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 6: in the last couple of years. 824 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,280 Speaker 9: I mean, look, the trajectory is not letting up. Gold 825 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,720 Speaker 9: buying is increasing. The biggest single quarter in world history 826 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,399 Speaker 9: was the fourth quarter of twenty twenty four. We saw 827 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 9: a slight tail off first quarter of this year, but 828 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 9: The trend generally is increasing, and I think it'll continue 829 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:31,720 Speaker 9: to increase. We have to remember the traditional safe haven 830 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 9: asset was US government debt treasury. 831 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 7: Specifically, what we are. 832 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 9: Seeing now is demand for that debt is waning. Right, 833 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:45,800 Speaker 9: the FED lowered interest rates on load interest rates Boring 834 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 9: rates on the tenure went up seventy basis points on 835 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 9: the thirty year one hundred basis points, which is concerning. 836 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 9: So I am of the belief that trend will continue 837 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 9: and until another currency appears. Right, there is not a 838 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 9: current see better than the dollar today outside of gold. 839 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 9: Until that appears, I think central banks will continue increasing 840 00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 9: gold hold things.
