1 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: Ahead on an American Sunrise early edition and Nevada man entered 2 00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: a Manhattan office building during the evening rush hour and 3 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: shot and killed four people, including an NYPD officer who 4 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: was off duty and was shot in the back. The 5 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: shooter turned the gun on himself and died. Now comes 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: the search for a motive and more answers times a 7 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: waste in. President Trump says now he's only going to 8 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: give Russian pleasant President Vladimir Putin ten to twelve more 9 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 1: days to stop the war on Ukraine or new sanctions 10 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: in massive taris are coming from Moscow. President Trump continues 11 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 1: to mostly blame Hamas for the plight of the civilians 12 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: in Gaza, but now he's preparing new efforts to try 13 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: to bring more food supplies. 14 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 2: There is this a good idea? 15 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: As expected, a federal judge in Massachusetts blocks the new 16 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: budget law that would have stripped medicaid funding for planned parenthood. 17 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: It's just the latest national and j junction issued by 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,639 Speaker 1: a district court judge, but this time it's not against 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: a Trump executive order. It's against the law passed by Congress. 20 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: And the party's over the student loan borrowers. Uh, they're 21 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 1: gonna have to start paying interest now that freeze that 22 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: began more than five years ago is officially going away 23 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: as of August first. That's this Friday, American Sunrise Early 24 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: Edition begins. 25 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 3: Now. 26 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 4: Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, 27 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 4: freedom and the values that built this nation takes centers. 28 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 2: To your good thieves and bad deaths. That's how we're 29 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 2: gonna judge you. 30 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 4: Join host Jake Novak as he breaks down the stories 31 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 4: that matter. 32 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 2: We will be letting the public know regularly what we 33 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 2: have found. 34 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 4: American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Novak starts now. 35 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: Good morning, and welcome to Tuesday in American Sunrise Early Edition. 36 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: I'm Jake Novak here in New York, where, of course 37 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: we're still reeling from last night's shooting in Midtown Manhattan. 38 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: We're learning a little bit more about what may be 39 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: the motives behind this shooting. 40 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: The shooter is, of course also down. 41 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: He shot himself after killing four other people wounding many others. 42 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: It appears from what we're getting starting to piece together, 43 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: and we will get more information as the day goes on, 44 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: it appears that he was probably targeting the NFL offices 45 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: in that building. Also in that building was the Blackstone 46 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: private equity firm. But it does appear that the NFL 47 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: was his target. This was a former football player. Not 48 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: going to say his name because I don't really think 49 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 1: we need to know his name, but he was from Nevada. 50 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: He did have a license to carry a concealed gun, 51 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: but that was a long gun that he took across 52 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: state lines. It's for those of you who are yelling 53 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: for more gun control laws. He broke a lot of 54 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: those laws anyway, But just letting you know that this 55 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: may be connected to his football career. He played football. 56 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 1: He apparently wrote something about how he had some perhaps 57 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: CTE as you know, many football players deal with multiple concussions. Again, 58 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: this is still some speculation right now that as a 59 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,839 Speaker 1: day goes along, as this program goes along, we will 60 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: try to find out more about what happened in New York. 61 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: Joining me now is retired Air Force Withutenant Colonel Larry Brock. 62 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: He's also currently a Republican candidate for the Texas State 63 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: Legislator of the State House in Austin. Colonel Brock, you 64 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: have been as cautious as anybody else when it comes 65 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: to America's involvement in the Ukraine Russia War, our commitment 66 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: of Ukraine, whether it's weapons or money. So I have 67 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: to ask you about your reaction to President Trump's pushed 68 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: up ultimatum. He was gonna give Putin fifty days about 69 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: ten days past. Now he's moving it all the way 70 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: down to a ten to twelve day window. Like to 71 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: get your feelings about this, because it does feel like 72 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: President Trump is getting more committed to pushing back against 73 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,119 Speaker 1: Putin right now. 74 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 5: Well again, I was hoping for a complete reset with 75 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 5: the Russian Federation and hopefully, you know, a better relationship 76 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 5: with them. But I don't believe that President Putin wants peace, 77 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 5: And I think what you're seeing is President Trump's frustration 78 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 5: play out when Vladimir Putin asks for ceasefires and then 79 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 5: violates them. And so it makes sense to me that 80 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 5: President Trump is actually doing what he says he's. 81 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 3: Going to do. 82 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 5: And I also think he's bolstered by recent efforts where 83 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 5: he is using trade to negotiate peace, such as between 84 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 5: Cambodia and Thailand over the weekend. So possibly he's thinking 85 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 5: that will have some impact. But given the level of 86 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 5: sanctions that we have on Russia already. I don't really 87 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 5: know what, you know, increasing their tar UF to that 88 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 5: rate will will do or what impact it will have 89 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 5: on Russia. 90 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 6: Yeah. 91 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: You know, another thing about this that I thought was 92 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: really interesting was how President Trump is trying to find 93 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: victories in places where, or in general topics or areas 94 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: where it really doesn't seem to be a victory that possible. 95 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel the same way as you. 96 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if peace is possible between these two 97 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: warring parties and Russian Ukraine, but it doesn't mean it 98 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: can't offer some positive developments elsewhere. This EU United States 99 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: trade deal over the weekend had a lot to do 100 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: with Russia and Ukraine, right, I mean, he basically got 101 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: the European Union to buy and promise to buy seven 102 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty billion dollars more worth of US energy 103 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: that's going to be mostly liquefied natural gas. 104 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 2: That's a big blow to Putin, who. 105 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: Has his thumb on Europe for years with his supplying 106 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: of them with energy. And then of course the defense stuff, 107 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: the defense weapons systems that Europe is going to buy 108 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: because of this deal. That's you know, they're going to 109 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: give a lot of those weapons to Ukraine, aren't they 110 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: So again, he may not be able to get a 111 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: peace deal. President Trump may not between those two parties, 112 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: but he was able to get something else good for 113 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: America out of it. I mean, honestly, I don't know 114 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: if that's making lemonade out of lemons, but it's it's 115 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: finding something to do with something. I wonder how folks 116 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: in the military feel about their role in a trade deal. 117 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,679 Speaker 1: I guess it's part of it's part of your service. 118 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 5: I guess correct, yes, sir, But I don't think you'll see, 119 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 5: you Knowed States servicemen inside Ukraine. You may, you know, 120 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 5: in Romania training F sixteen pilots. You may see our 121 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 5: maintainers over there, you know, assisting them and learning how 122 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 5: to take care. 123 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 3: Of that airplane. 124 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 5: But what you're seeing as a president that is using 125 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 5: all levers of a nation's power. Obviously, you know, the 126 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 5: economic deal for LNG cuts at the heart of Russia's 127 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 5: power over Europe. And then you know, militarily, what you're 128 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 5: seeing is, you know, his ability to weave in goodness 129 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 5: for the United States and it's citizens such as you know, 130 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 5: I think what we're going to send over there. Basically, 131 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 5: Jake is going to be F sixteen's maintenance packages, support 132 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 5: packages for those Patriot air defense systems. You'll see high 133 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 5: Mars as well. You know a lot of advanced US 134 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 5: military equipment that needs to get to Europe. If they 135 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 5: choose to move it to Ukraine, which they probably will, 136 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 5: then so be it. But the bottom line is you're 137 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 5: seeing a rearming of Europe along United States lines, which 138 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 5: is also directly against what Germany and France were trying 139 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 5: to do with the europe Pianization of their own forces. So, 140 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 5: you know, President Trump is really putting America back on 141 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 5: top in terms of world engagement. It's honestly enjoyable to see. 142 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, if they're going to if they're 143 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: going to try to complain about Russia to US, then 144 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: buy our weapons and then and be quiet about it. 145 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: That's really the answer there. 146 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about another situation that seems almost unsolvable. 147 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: The US has pumped billions of dollars and probably a 148 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: few inflation adjusted it maybe probably about a trillion dollars 149 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: worth of money and food aid into. 150 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: Gaza over the decades. 151 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: This isn't just a new thing that started on October seven, 152 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. President Trump knows, and he really kind 153 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: of made that clear yesterday, at least the way I 154 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: heard it. He knows that the suffering of any civilians 155 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: in Gaza is really almost one hundred percent of Hamas's fault. 156 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: But he's still apparently putting together a new aid plan. 157 00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to do anything as stupid 158 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: as as the Biden team did when they built that 159 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: floating dock. You remember that pier that army engineers knew 160 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: wasn't going to actually work, and people died. We did 161 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: have a US serviceman die in that hole, the bacle. 162 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: So I don't think he's going to do that. But 163 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: my hope, Colonel Brock is that this is maybe his 164 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: chance to say, we tried one more time. You killed 165 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: the AID workers, or you didn't let the food go 166 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: in like you did with all the other food, and 167 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: now I'm going to let Israel do what it has 168 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: to do, which I think he's kind of doing anyway. 169 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: But still I really wish that we would stop trying 170 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: to throw good money after bad. It hates use a 171 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: financial term, but that's we're talking about money. 172 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 5: So I have to, you know, Jake, I think you're right. 173 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 5: I mean, it is basically a pr war. We are 174 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 5: literally watching Hamas starve its own people. And for those 175 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 5: of you that don't think that's what's going on, you know, 176 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 5: yesterday a relief convoy you know, of thirty trucks was 177 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 5: looted by Hamas before it could ever reach Conyunis. You know, 178 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 5: the IDF has put out photos of literally hundreds of 179 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 5: trucks on the path the gaza side of an Israeli town. 180 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 5: I believe it's named Karim Shalom. So it is the 181 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 5: un that is not getting the food to these refugees, 182 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 5: and it's probably due to the threat of Hamas or 183 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 5: their outright collaboration with Hamas to try and make this 184 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 5: look like. 185 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: The Israelis are starving people. 186 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 5: There was another picture that was posted I believe by 187 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 5: the New York Times and the Guardian that we're actually 188 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 5: children with diseases and one of them, the Israelis had 189 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 5: flown to Italy for treatment, you know, rather than starving 190 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 5: Palestinian children. So we're sitting an all out propaganda war 191 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 5: being waged on the West by Hamas, and unfortunately, I 192 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 5: think they are sort of fooling us. However, Jake, as 193 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 5: you said, you know, one more tribe, let's go in. 194 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 5: Let's try and do this the right way. But you 195 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 5: know a lot of this is because the United States 196 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 5: is getting involved. You know, they really don't want the GHF, 197 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 5: God's the Humanitarian Fund to succeed because food is power 198 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 5: and that's all Hamas has over its population right now, 199 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 5: as the IDF is pretty much new realized them militarily. 200 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think one thing that a good rule of 201 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 1: thumb is something that I was finally able to edit properly, 202 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: is to remember this Israel doesn't have be bad pr. 203 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 2: Israel doesn't have bad pr. The world is just. 204 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: Full of a lot of liars, and especially online, especially 205 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: on social media. It's as simple as that. And by 206 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: the way, the lies aren't new. I mean, it's one 207 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: thing to be a liar, but I love when these 208 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: liars think that they're the first person to use these slurs. 209 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: It's literally more than a thousand years old. It's the 210 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: same old lie, I mean, at least the original. Speaking 211 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: about original, let's go to your state of Texas, Colonel Rock, 212 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: because you've got a big redistricting fight going on. In 213 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: the state House. Are you would like to join that 214 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: stay house in the coming years? Sure? Tell us about 215 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: a little bit what's going on there. I mean, you know, 216 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: we think of Texas as the reddest of all states. 217 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: You know, the Democrats have made a lot of efforts 218 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: in statewide elections there. One of them was close, if 219 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: you remember the twenty eighteen Senate election with Beto o'rouric almost. 220 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 2: Defeating Ted Cruz. 221 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: But the national elections for president they're not close. They 222 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: keep predicting they will be, they're not. So is this 223 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: trying Is this Texas and the Trump administration trying to 224 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: squeeze out a couple more red districts out of that, 225 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, to help them with the House majority. 226 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: And how's that going? 227 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 5: Well, it's going to be an interesting fight. I think 228 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 5: it's going to go well. I don't think you're going 229 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 5: to see five seats come out of it. From what 230 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 5: I'm hearing from my friends down in the state House. 231 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 5: Right now, you're probably looking at three in a compromise 232 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 5: deal with the Democrats. President Trump wants five. So we'll 233 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 5: see what happens there. The Senate is completely amenable to 234 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 5: trying to redistrict and have Republicans gain the five seats. 235 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 5: But the problem is the Speaker of the House is 236 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 5: relying on the Democrats to retain his gabble, so he 237 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 5: has to play ball with the Democrats. And that's why 238 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 5: I think you're going to see a compromise out of 239 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 5: the House where we don't get the five seats, we 240 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 5: want just the three. So that's how I think it 241 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 5: will play out. 242 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 3: Now. 243 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 5: There is also the possibility that the Democrats inside the 244 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 5: Texas House just absolutely leave Flea, as they've done once before, 245 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 5: which is a violation of the law. President I'm sorry, 246 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 5: Governor Abbitt could have them arrested if they do that. 247 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 5: So it will be interesting to see if he actually 248 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 5: takes that step. 249 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, they tried that in Wisconsin. I remember that, and 250 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: that was a crazy situation. Real quick, I want to 251 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: get to I've been talking with at least in my 252 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: own imagination, I haven't. 253 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 2: Heard back from him. 254 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 1: I used to work with Heralder river Heraldo Rivera has 255 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: been going on this crusade against ICE agents who are 256 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: wearing masks, talking about how no cops wear masks and 257 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: FBI people don't wear masks, and I've been trying to 258 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: push back on him and remind him that in their 259 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: capacity right now, ICE agents are not working as police officers. 260 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: They are working much more like soldiers because they are 261 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: repelling a deliberate invasion of the United States. They may 262 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: not be fighting against an organized army, but this was 263 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: an organized invasion. And as you know, Colonel Brock, soldiers 264 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: have been wearing masks for millennia. 265 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: I don't think Rolder Rivera has read through cidides or 266 00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 2: knows about the Pelopese Nesian War, does he? 267 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 3: No? Absolutely not. 268 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 5: I mean samurai hoplights, how about just the armored Knights 269 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 5: in Europe. I mean those just rapidly come to mind. 270 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 3: You know. 271 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 5: The other thing too, is he needs to understand that 272 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 5: this is fifth generation warfare. People can be docks, people's 273 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 5: families would be put at risk. So this is a 274 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 5: protective measure for these soldiers, as you said, as they 275 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 5: repel the invasion that was allowed in under our last president. 276 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 5: I completely understand why they're doing it. I wish it 277 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 5: wasn't necessary, but that's just the reality of the time 278 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 5: that we live in. And if I was an ICE agent, 279 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 5: I would certainly be wearing a mask to protect my 280 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 5: family from retribution. 281 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's just completely out of line, and I 282 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: think a little historically ignorant and also not understanding that 283 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: Ice is not acting like. 284 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 2: This isn't Cops and Robbers, This isn't Law and Order. 285 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: Episode five. 286 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 1: All right, coming up, I want to thank you so 287 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: much for joining us, Larry b Lieutenant Colonel Larry Brock, 288 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 1: also a candidate for the State House in Texas. 289 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for joining us. 290 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 3: Thank you, Jacob, appreciate it. 291 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: Coming up, a federal judge in Massachusetts reverses a Medicaid 292 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: funding freeze for planned parenthood. But this may be even 293 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: tougher to defend the injunctions against President Trump's executive orders, 294 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: I will explain why. And one of the concessions made 295 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: by schools like Columbia University could leave some tenured professors 296 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: out of luck. Get your handkerchief. I'm just kidding. American 297 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: Sunrise early edition will be right back. No, that isn't 298 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: the live Look at the NASAU control room. That's our 299 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: control room in West Palm Beach for real America's voice 300 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: and all those young gen zers who wake up early 301 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: and go to a real job and don't sleep in 302 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: love those people Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. 303 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm Jake Novak Special Welcome to those of you on 304 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: Getter and Rumble who are already up and commenting on 305 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: this show. A federal judge in Boston has restored medicaid 306 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: funding to Planned Parenthood. Now that was taken away by 307 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: the Big Beautiful Bill passed by Congress and signed by 308 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: President Trump earlier this month. That is why this national 309 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: injunction by a district court judge is a little bit different. 310 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 2: Now. You know, we've talked about this in the past. 311 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court said that the district court judges can't 312 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: in their own district just stop something nationally by issuing 313 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: injunctions against President Trump's executive orders. They've been finding ways 314 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: around this anyway. But this, as I've noted earlier, is 315 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: not an executive order. And President Trump, of course he 316 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: supported the Big Beautiful Bill. Of course he did, and 317 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: he did a lot to get it passed. But this 318 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: is still an Act of Congress that's signed by the president. 319 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: So if you see headlines this morning that say that 320 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: a judge has stopped Trump's plan, this Trump's medicaid grab, 321 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: it's really not accurate. This is a congressional bill, a 322 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: bill passed by Congress, again signed by President Trump. I 323 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: get that this isn't exactly a specific Trump agenda, and 324 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: that I think is going to hurt this from being 325 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: affirmed in higher courts. They may take a look at 326 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: this and say, this is an act of Congress. Can't 327 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: You can't overturn it like this. So watch the progression 328 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: of that story. 329 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 2: Now. 330 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: In case you didn't know, academia is peppered with one 331 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: issue idologues who thrive on the undo an indemnity they 332 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: get from being professors or tenured professors. In other words, 333 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: they just kind of bash everybody on one particular topic, 334 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: and they are. 335 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 2: Able to continue to do so. 336 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: They get a job basically, and they never get fired 337 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: because a lot of them have tenure. But there's something 338 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: I want to tell you about about This is really 339 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: interesting because there is one professor at Columbia. Her name 340 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: is Mary Anne Hirsh, and she may be realizing that 341 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: the jig. 342 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: Is up for her. 343 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: You might remember Columbia University earlier this month settled with 344 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: the Trump administration. Not only did they pay more than 345 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: two hundred million dollars to try to rectify and basically finds, 346 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: but it was part of a settlement because they weren't 347 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: doing enough to stop anti semitism. Part of that agreement 348 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: is Columbia University accepting the definition of anti Semitism as 349 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 1: set forth by an organization called the IHRA. 350 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 2: It's a Holocaust. 351 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,959 Speaker 1: Research group that basically says this, you're allowed to criticize Israel. 352 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 2: You're allowed to criticize. 353 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: Even Jewish people, But if they're the only people you criticize, 354 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: if that's the only country you ever talk about, that 355 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: is likely to be anti Semitism. 356 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 2: And this is professor Mary and Hirsch. That's all she does. 357 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: And she's realizing now she may need to get another job, 358 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: because if Columbia is going to enforce this agreement that 359 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: they've made with the federal government, they're going to have 360 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: a problem with professors like her whose entire career is 361 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: just bashing Israel. Even if she were right, can't you 362 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 1: do something else? Honestly, only in academia can you say 363 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: one thing for fifty years and actually still have a job. 364 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: No matter how disproven or maybe even correct it is, 365 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: it's still the same old story. Okay, if you are 366 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: stressed about back taxes, maybe you miss the April deadline, 367 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: or your book or a mess. 368 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 2: Do not wait. 369 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: The IRS is cracking down penalties add up fast five 370 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: percent per month up to twenty five percent just for 371 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: not filing. 372 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 2: But there is help. 373 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: Tax Network USA can take the burden off your shoulders 374 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 1: and stop the spiral before it gets worse.

It's a 394 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 2: live look at a hazy morning here in New York City. 395 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: Of course, I've had more details for you at the 396 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 1: top of the program, and i'll talk a little bit. 397 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 2: About it again. 398 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: That shooting yesterday in Midtown, Manhattan, in the Midtown Area 399 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: Park Avenue. It looks like the shooter was probably trying 400 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: to target the NFL. This is someone who had football injuries. 401 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 2: But again we still don't know officially. 402 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: The mode of Four people killed, including a New York 403 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: City police officer who was off duty trying to help 404 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: folks in the situation, shot and kill in the back. 405 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: The guy had two children and a third on the way. 406 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: Just a terrible story in New York. And we have 407 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: a candidate for mayor in New York who says he 408 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: wants more social workers. I'm sure the social workers would 409 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 1: have done a great job in a mass shooting incident 410 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: like that. 411 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 2: My goodness. 412 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: All right, let's take a look over the markets are 413 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: going to begin today. That's also every day. That's a 414 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: New York story, and we see some green modest for 415 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: the Dow, only forty one points up on the Dow futures. 416 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: The Dow closed very very marginally down yesterday. Both the 417 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: S and P five hundred and the Nasdaq today showing 418 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: nicer gains, especially the Nasdaq. They closed up yesterday, so 419 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: again all time closing. 420 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 2: Lolows. When you're at an all time high and you 421 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 2: gain at the end of the day. I know this 422 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 2: is simple math. 423 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be silly here, but if you're 424 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: already at an all time high and you have a gain, 425 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: no matter how small, then you have created a new 426 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: all time high. So both the S and P five 427 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: hundred and the Nasdaq will open at all time highs. 428 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: This morning, you see crude oil almost completely flat. Four sixes, 429 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: thank god, it's not three sixes. Four six Oh, there 430 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 1: we go, and then we got a seven. 431 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:56,479 Speaker 3: Thank you. 432 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 2: Now let's take a look at bitcoin. Bitcoin is still. 433 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: In that one seventeen to one twenty one windows, smack 434 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 1: dab in the middle of it, not moving all that much, 435 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 1: all right, just a couple of days after their memorable 436 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: personal exchange. If you remember that incredible video from last 437 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: week with President Trump and Jerome Powell at the FED 438 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: construction site, wearing their hard hats and bickering a little bit, 439 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: although very politely by the way, but bickering a little 440 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: bit about the price of the renovation. 441 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: Just a couple of days after. 442 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 1: That, j Powell and the Federal Open Market Committee are 443 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: going to get together starting today for a two day 444 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: meeting on what to do about interest rates. Gee, I 445 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: wonder what President Trump is hoping they'll do. Of course, 446 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: we know that President Trump wants them and to lower 447 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: the rates, lower interest rates. I don't think it's going 448 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: to happen. Wall Street is also not expecting it to happen. 449 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: But we will get two days worth of drama starting 450 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: this morning, and there'll be a lot of people hoping 451 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: for rate cuts, President Trump among them. And we'll see 452 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 1: Jerome Powell. Maybe he you know, maybe he flipped. Maybe 453 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: he's had enough with the pressure. We'll have to see. Okay, 454 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: speaking of interest rates, student loan interest will be to 455 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,919 Speaker 1: be assessed again for the first time since President Trump. 456 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: You might remember it was President Trump who suspended interest 457 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 1: on those loans back in March of twenty twenty. What 458 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: was going on in March of twenty twenty, oh yeah, 459 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: we were having all of those COVID lockdowns, whether you 460 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: agree with them or not, a lot of people couldn't 461 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: go to work. And President Trump relaxed the interest rate 462 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: at additions to people's interest editions to people's student loan debt. 463 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: This was something a lot of people thought would be 464 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: very temporary. It would only go for a couple of weeks, 465 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: maybe a couple months. It has now been five years 466 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: and four months, an incredibly long stretch of interest rate 467 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 1: holidays for student loan borrowers. But of course this is important. 468 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: Now you're gonna have a lot of stories about people 469 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: who can't afford their student loan. I promise you the 470 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: mainstream media will be parading these people out. Some of 471 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: them will be people where you'll say, well, they made 472 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: a choice to be a poetry major at Stanford instead 473 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: of a tech major. I don't really care about their 474 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: two hundred thousand dollars in debt. And you'll definitely have 475 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: a good point there. It is about your choices, after all. 476 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: But as I always say on this program, these colleges 477 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: and universities have been gouging the public. They have raised 478 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: tuition in this country by more than five times the 479 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: rate of inflation since the nineteen sixties. There's no justification 480 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: for it other than they knew they could get away 481 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,479 Speaker 1: with it, and they decided to do so. And they 482 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: talk about how precious education is. If education is so precious, 483 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: stop charging so gosh darn much for it at a 484 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: rates higher than five times the rate of inflation. Anyway, 485 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: that's something to think about as those interest charges resume 486 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,880 Speaker 1: for millions and millions of Americans who have student loan debt. 487 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: All right, always struggling Spirit Airlines, It's always struggling, isn't. 488 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: It just came out of bankruptcy while it's making more cuts. 489 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: It will now furlough about two hundred and seventy pilots 490 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: while demoting another one hundred and forty as the cash 491 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,679 Speaker 1: strap budget carrier looks to scale down its workforce to 492 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: match its downsize schedule. You remember, Spirit Airlines was already 493 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: to merge with JetBlue, was. 494 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 2: Going to buy them. 495 00:23:55,440 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: Basically the Biden administration blocked it for political reasons. It 496 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: was really it could have really saved Spirit Airlines, and 497 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: it certainly would have made Jet Blue and a little. 498 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 2: Bit of a bigger airline as well. 499 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: I think that business experts are going to look back 500 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: at the blocking of that merger as one of the 501 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: most biggest mistakes that Biden administration made that hurt the economy. 502 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: Spirit Airlines. I know they just came out of bankruptcy. 503 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: I just don't see how this airline survives for another 504 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: few years unless somebody else buys them.

Okay, news of the trade deal with 524 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: the EU wasn't very good news for Chrysler Jeep Dodge 525 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: owner Stilantis. That's because Stillanceis also owns some European brands 526 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 1: like Maserati and Alpha Romeo. Now, look, there are a 527 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: lot of foreign made cars made by GM, Ford. 528 00:25:59,080 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 2: Et cetera, et cetera. 529 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 1: But first of all, their biggest selling brands still mostly 530 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: made here in the United States, REGAM and Ford. Of course, 531 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: they still have a lot of in Mexico and Canada. 532 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: And they got themselves in trouble last week when they 533 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: complained about the Japan trade deal and said, hey, we're 534 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: making cars too in foreign countries. Why don't we get 535 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: the same deal Japan does? And I told you how 536 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 1: that was a huge mistake. It reminded millions of Americans 537 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: that Ford and GM are making too many cars still 538 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: in Canada and Mexico and robbing US of American jobs. 539 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 2: But Stillantas is in another position. 540 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: I understand Stilantis making Maseratis and Fiats and Alfa Romeos 541 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:36,919 Speaker 1: in Europe for the most part, I get it. But 542 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: if they hope to sell those cars in any large 543 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: numbers in America, they need to start considering making some 544 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 1: of them right here in America. And they're not doing that. 545 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: So Silanta's shares fell four percent yesterday. Stilantis, by the way, 546 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:53,439 Speaker 1: as a company, their stocks ticker symbol is STLA. They 547 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: are trading at under ten dollars a share. It is 548 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: a struggling, struggling company. I wonder if you ever wondered 549 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: about how how your speed might affect the range on 550 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: an EV. 551 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 2: Again, I don't know how many. 552 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: Of you own electric vehicles, but I always wonder about this, 553 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: even though I've never owned one. 554 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 2: When you charge it up, how long. 555 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: Can you really expect to be able to go before 556 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: you get another charge? Well, if you have a lead foot, 557 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: the answer is not that far. 558 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 2: Car and driver. 559 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: The folks over there wondered the same thing, and they've 560 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: started to test some models to see how speed affects range. 561 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 1: So they started with two models, the lucid Air Sedan, 562 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 1: which is this hot new car, and the Kia EV 563 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: nine SUV, which you see right there. 564 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 2: This is interesting. The difference between. 565 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: Driving fifty five miles per hour and seventy five miles 566 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 1: per hour was a drop of eighty eight miles of 567 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: range in the lucid Air Sedan and one hundred and 568 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: nine miles of range. 569 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 2: And the Kia EV nine SDV. That's a lot. 570 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that's almost basically a third of your charge 571 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: right down the drain. So it's great when you have 572 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: a charged up car, but if you're going to drive 573 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: on a highway and do you know, we all know, 574 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: we all kind of break the I know there's some 575 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: states that had seventy mile per hour speed limits, but 576 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: you know we all go seventy five sometimes, don't wait. Well, 577 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: if you do that, be prepared to lose about a 578 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: third of your range. You better have a good list 579 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: of places where you can go charge your car. I 580 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: still think driving cross country or even from New York 581 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: to Florida on a with an EV can be a 582 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: real pain in the neck because you got to find 583 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: out where you can charge all right, now it's mystery time. 584 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 1: I want to have a little bit of a mystery 585 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: buster here. Let's hope we can all figure this out. 586 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to show you a picture of a very 587 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: dusty late model Corvette ZR one. It was spotted at 588 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: a parking garage in Texas, recently filled with all this dust. 589 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: It had been parked there for months and no one 590 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: has come to claim it. Now there's a lot of 591 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: a lot of theories going on online about why this happened. 592 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 2: Did maybe the owner get sick? 593 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: Did some Is it a soldier who's been deployed overseas 594 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: and forgot about it. All I know is people are 595 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: trying to figure out who owns this car. And I 596 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: don't know what the laws in Texas are for how 597 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: long property can just sit there before it belongs to 598 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,959 Speaker 1: the state and they auction it off. But I get 599 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: a feeling someone's going to get a very low cost, 600 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: maybe even lightly used Corvette that just needs a little 601 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: bit of a wash at a car wash. I don't 602 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: want to talk more about corvettes. I got another Corvette 603 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: story for you. If this Corvette isn't yours and you 604 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: haven't left it in the garage. You can still get 605 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: a chance to claim a great deal on a new Corvette, 606 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: a twenty twenty four or twenty twenty five Corvette Z six. 607 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: Their sales are basically not very hot right now. That's 608 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: because the next generation Corvette ZR one that's going to 609 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: be available pretty soon is getting so much attention. People 610 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: are saying, well, I'll wait for the new ZR one. 611 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: I'm not going to buy the ZO six. So the 612 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: answer to that and the response to that from dealers 613 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: have been discounts. Some dealers are discounting Z zero six 614 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: is ZO six is four as much as ten thousand dollars. 615 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: Now that's a pretty big discount because most of those 616 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: cars go for about one hundred and forty thousand MSRP. 617 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: So you can get a nice deal on a Corvette 618 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: because everyone's talking about the ZR one, and they're forgetting 619 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: about the ones I haven't sold yet, the twenty twenty 620 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: four and twenty twenty five models they got. Get those 621 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: sold first before you switch everyone's attention. Okay, coming up, 622 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: Wall Street kind of shrugged at the US EU trade deal, 623 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: but what should Main Street be thinking about it? 624 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 2: I'll dig a little bit deeper into that, And it's 625 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 2: fed day. And the good news for j. 626 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: Powell is that President Trump will not be in on 627 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: the meetings today and tomorrow on interest rates. Jay Powell 628 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: can breathe a sigh of relief at least for a 629 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: little while. American Sunrise Early Edition, We'll be right back. 630 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: It's Tuesday, July twenty ninth. Here this morning's top stories. 631 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: And Nevada man entered a Manhattan office building during the 632 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: evening rush hour last night and shot and killed several people, 633 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: including an NYPD officer who was off duty. 634 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: Was shot in the back. 635 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: The shooter turned the gun on himself and died. Now 636 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: comes the search for motive and more answers. Time's a wastin. 637 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: President Trump says now he's only giving Russian President Vladimir 638 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: Putin ten to twelve more days to stop the war 639 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: on Ukraine or else. New sanctions and massive new tyres 640 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: are coming from Moscow. President Trump continues to mostly blame 641 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: Hamas for the plight of the civilians in Gaza, but 642 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: now he's preparing a new effort to try to bring more. 643 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 2: Food supplies there. 644 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 1: As expected, if federal judge in Massachusetts blocks the new 645 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: budget law that would have stripped Medicaid funding for planned parenthood. 646 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: It's just the latest national injunction issued by a district 647 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: court judge. But this time it's not against a Trump 648 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: executive order. It's against a law passed by Congress. And 649 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: just a few days after President Trump visited him personally, 650 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: at the FED, Chairman J. 651 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 2: Powell begins a two day meeting today. 652 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: To decide whether to cut interest rates. Don't hold your bread. 653 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition continues. Now, welcome back to American 654 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: Sunrise Early Edition. It's a Tuesday. I'm Jake Novac. Thank 655 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: you so much for joining us. Let's get right into it. 656 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: I want to update you on that breaking story from 657 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: last night, the shootings at a midtown Manhattan office building. 658 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: This was in Park Avenue in the fifties, fifty first Street. 659 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: I'm not going to say the name of the shooter. 660 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: He's passed away anyway, he killed himself. I don't like 661 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: giving that person extra publicity, but I will say that he. 662 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 2: Was from Nevada. 663 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: It appears now as we are piecing together some evidence, 664 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: and we may get more evidence later. So this is 665 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: again remember that when you report on these kinds of events, 666 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: it's kind of like being a paramedic as opposed to 667 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: a doctor. We're basically acting like first responders, and things 668 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: could change very quickly once we get more information. But 669 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: it appears that the target may have been the NFL 670 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: offices that were in that building. Apparently this shooter had 671 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: a football career. He may have had some brain injury 672 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: because of it. This is not an uncommon story unfortunately 673 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: with football, as many of you know, but that has 674 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: not been confirmed. What we do know, sadly, is that 675 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: one of the victims was an off duty NYPD officer 676 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: shot in the back. He was trying to help people 677 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 1: in this situation. And that off duty officer had two 678 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: children and a third on the way. This is a terrible, 679 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: terrible story, and we do know again that the shooter 680 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: was from Nevada. It looks like he drove to New 681 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: York City from all the way from Nevada and got 682 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: into the building as you can see, very brazenly walked 683 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: into the building holding his long gun there as some 684 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: people call it assault rifles. I don't like those terms. 685 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: It was a semi automatic rifle. That's the textbook definition 686 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: of all this. All right, that's the situation in New 687 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 1: York and we'll be keeping our eye on it all 688 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 1: day on Real America's Voice, and of course the American 689 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: Sunrise Program, which comes on after this program for two 690 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,239 Speaker 1: hours from eight to ten am Eastern time. All right, 691 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 1: let's get to less serious and sad matters. Serious but 692 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: certainly not sad. Joining us right now is Tom Carter. 693 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: He is the pre and co founder of the American 694 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,479 Speaker 1: Conservative Values ETF Exchange Traded Fund. By the way, I've 695 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: talked to people from this organization before. This is a 696 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 1: fund that basically gets the woke out of your investments, 697 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 1: and you can check them out online. It's a great 698 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 1: way to invest without supporting some causes that you don't 699 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: want to support, and support some causes that you do 700 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: want to support. But I want to ask you, Tom, 701 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: you're a financial expert. 702 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 2: After all. 703 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: It is FED Decision Day Part one. It's a two 704 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: day FED meeting. By the way, I don't know why 705 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: they need to have two day meetings. They do this 706 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: half the time. But that's another discussion I have to 707 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 1: ask you. We've been talking all about these issues with 708 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: President Trump and that photo op last week with the 709 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: hard hats. 710 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 2: Some people can chuckle about it. Some people are very 711 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 2: offended by it. 712 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: But let's get to the nitty gritty here, Tom, what 713 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: do you think of the job j. Powell has done 714 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 1: in all these years as FED chairman and how do 715 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: you think he should go forward? 716 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 3: Well, good morning, and thanks for having me. 717 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,720 Speaker 7: You know, first of all, we believe in an independent FED, 718 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 7: and we do believe that the women of the Fed 719 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 7: should be independent. That being said, we believe that this 720 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 7: particular chairman of the Fed is not independent, and in fact, 721 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 7: we believe that there's some sort of grudge against the 722 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 7: current administration. Obviously, you know, inflation is down, costs her down, 723 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 7: the stock markets at all time highs. President Trump has 724 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 7: done a great job in his first six months. His 725 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 7: policies are working, but the Fed is way late, and 726 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 7: you know President Trump calls the chairman late all the time, 727 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 7: and we agree with that. You know, the stock market 728 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 7: in itself affects a lot of people. However, the middle 729 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 7: class are much more. 730 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:37,800 Speaker 3: Affected by interest rates. 731 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 7: They have mortgages, they have car payments, they have credit 732 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 7: card payments. And I think, really to get this economy 733 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 7: going and keep up with the policies that the President 734 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 7: is implementing, we think the FED needs. 735 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 3: To reduce rates and reduce them quickly. 736 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 7: I don't believe that's going to happen necessarily today or tomorrow. 737 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 3: As you said in this twoday meeting. 738 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 7: That being said, we think that would be a mistake, 739 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 7: and we think they should lower interest rates. 740 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, the Achilles heel in the argument 741 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 1: for j. Powell is those are those two cuts that 742 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: he did in the fall of last year. What in 743 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: the world was the justification for that when inflation was 744 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,439 Speaker 1: higher and we didn't have such a good It wasn't 745 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: such a good idea to do that at that point 746 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: and not do it now. So he was either very 747 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,399 Speaker 1: very wrong then or he's very very wrong now. And 748 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: those two cuts in the fall just really are just 749 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: don't look good at all for this guy's record, do they. 750 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 3: Well. 751 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 7: I mean, if you were a conspiracy theorist, right, you 752 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 7: would think that maybe the cuts in the fall were 753 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 7: in reaction to what was. 754 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:44,720 Speaker 3: Thought to be happening in the election. 755 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 7: We don't know that, and you know that's putting thoughts 756 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 7: into someone else's head. 757 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 3: That being said, I agree with you. 758 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 7: I think the cuts in the fall were a mistake, 759 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 7: and I think the fact that there has been no cut. 760 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 3: Sense is also a mistake. 761 00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 7: Again, interest rates are probably taxes, and you know, the 762 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 7: big Beautiful Bill took care of some of the taxes 763 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,800 Speaker 7: that is happening on the middle class in middle America. 764 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 7: That being said, interest rates are impactful to their daily lives. 765 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 7: Lowering interest rates reduces costs on the interest expense that 766 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 7: they pay on all the things I mentioned earlier. And 767 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 7: we think it's a mistake that he has not lowered 768 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 7: interest rates, even though inflation is shown only to be 769 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 7: around that you know, two point three level the last 770 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 7: time it came out, and that's in line with what 771 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 7: the Fed is expecting. 772 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 1: All right, well, let's keep talking about interest rates because 773 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: Tom and they're talking to Tom Carter. 774 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 2: Tom, We're we're dealing right now. 775 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 1: Friday, the interest charges on federally backed student loans are 776 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: going to be re upped. They were frozen for more 777 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 1: than five years. Nice holiday for student loan borrowers. But 778 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 1: you know, this is a big issue in America. I 779 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: think we're at two trillion now, I think maybe even 780 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 1: a little bit more totals in student loan dead in 781 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: the United States. So this isn't going to be and 782 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 1: interest rates are all higher than they were in twenty 783 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: twenty when this freeze first went into effect. This is 784 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: going to be a story, isn't it. This is going 785 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 1: to affect a lot of middle class. 786 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 2: People in a very quick way, won't it. 787 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 3: It will. It'll affect middle class people. It'll affect those. 788 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,800 Speaker 7: People that you know, got degrees and things that maybe 789 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 7: cost them a lot of money and didn't make them 790 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,720 Speaker 7: a lot of money when they came out of college 791 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 7: and they have student loans to show for those educations 792 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 7: that might not have that income follow up that they 793 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 7: might have expected. It will also affect, though, you know, 794 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 7: some doctors and lawyers and people such as that that 795 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 7: went into debt to get their advanced degrees. And you know, 796 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 7: those were the people that the Biden administration was trying 797 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 7: to take care of by eliminating some of the student 798 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 7: loans that they owed. And we don't believe in that either. 799 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 7: We don't think the taxpayers should take on loans that 800 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 7: you signed for. 801 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 3: We're not in favor of that. 802 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,840 Speaker 7: That being said, this freeze that will affect the student 803 00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 7: loan payers again, higher interest rates, more money going to 804 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 7: service debt. The middle class is servicing a lot of debt. 805 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 7: Credit card debt is at all time high as well. 806 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 7: Student loan debt that you just mentioned is significant, and 807 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 7: I think those are drains on the economy when we're 808 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 7: servicing debt instead of spending money on goods and services 809 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 7: that helps the broader economy. 810 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. 811 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 1: Let's talk about something that we are in favor of, 812 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,919 Speaker 1: and that is American energy. Drill baby drill, and also 813 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 1: using natural gas. I'm also in favor of a lot 814 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 1: more nuclear power. And I'm really interested, Tom in this 815 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: EU US trade deal that involved this commitment by the 816 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 1: EU to buy hundreds of billions of dollars worth of 817 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: US energy and a lot of that is going to 818 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: be liquefied natural gas. But the doomsayers Tom at the 819 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal say, oh no, I don't know if 820 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: the LNG industry in America can produce that much supply. 821 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: I think that they're being really, really a chicken littles 822 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 1: on this. The reason why there isn't any demonstrated ability 823 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: for them to do so yet is because there hasn't 824 00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: been a market before. 825 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 2: Have they have? 826 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: They forgotten about econ one oh one supply and demand. 827 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 1: They're getting a huge demand and a government that's going 828 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: to help them with regulations. I think they're going to 829 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: be able to demeete this demand. 830 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 2: How about you, I do as well. 831 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 3: I do as well. 832 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 7: I mean I think when the Biden administration shut down 833 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 7: the export of liquified natural gas, I mean that that 834 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 7: was a big problem. And we're all for energy independence, 835 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 7: and not only energy independence, but the exportation of energy. 836 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 3: We believe energy is going to have a boom. 837 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 7: We've been thinking that all along, and it's not only 838 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 7: the export of liquid natural gas, but with artificial intelligence 839 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 7: and the huge computer farms that are being built and 840 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 7: all the electricity. 841 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,800 Speaker 3: Demands that are going to be there. You mentioned nuclear. 842 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 7: We believe that there's a lot of companies that are 843 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 7: good companies working on smaller nuclear reactors to help these 844 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 7: computer farms and this AI generation to be able to 845 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 7: supply energy for that. We believe the exportation of liquid 846 00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,240 Speaker 7: natural gas is going to be huge, and it all 847 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 7: gets the European Union out under the pressure of Russia 848 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,959 Speaker 7: to buy their energy from Russia. That was a huge 849 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 7: part in our in our belief of what started the 850 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 7: Ukraine War. Europe couldn't push back against them because they 851 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,720 Speaker 7: were relying on Russia for energy instead of US delivering 852 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 7: energy to them, which would have been much more helpful. So, 853 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 7: I mean, this energy equation is significant globally, and the 854 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,759 Speaker 7: US can be a very good producer and provider of 855 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 7: energy to the world and sustain ourselves on energy produced 856 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 7: within the United States. 857 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:35,479 Speaker 3: So we're a. 858 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:39,360 Speaker 7: Big you know, we're pro energy right now, and we 859 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 7: think that's a good place to be. 860 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's not just the lookified natural gas. It's 861 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 1: also the infrastructure, you know. They need to be They 862 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 1: need the the the guts, the inerts, the pipelines, the 863 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,319 Speaker 1: other things like that to make things work for them, 864 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: and we provide that as well. Tom Carter, thank you 865 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: so much for joining us. Really good insight on how 866 00:41:58,200 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 1: money is connected to all this kind of stuff you have. 867 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,319 Speaker 1: I thought financial news was boring. It's not, of course, 868 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 1: It's very very emotional and it's important. Thank you so 869 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 1: much for joining us. 870 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 3: Thank you for having me. 871 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 2: I have a great day you too. Coming up. Is 872 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 2: this the right move? 873 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 1: President Trump's new efforts to get more food and other 874 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: aid to the people of Gaza seems to ignore a 875 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 1: lot of hard backs. 876 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 2: Or maybe maybe this is the end game. 877 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 1: At last, David Rody and I will discuss when American 878 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 1: Sunrise Early Edition continued. That's a live look at a 879 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 1: hazy Tuesday morning in New York City. 880 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 2: Of course, I've been keeping you updated. 881 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,839 Speaker 1: I've had a couple of updates on that shooting at 882 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: the Midtown Manhattan offices during the afternoon rush hour yesterday. 883 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: Four people dead, including an off duty NYPD officer. 884 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 2: We're learning a little bit more about the motive. We're 885 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 2: finding out a little bit more. 886 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: Does not appear that this is a terrorism incident or 887 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: an illegal alien situation. It may have been something connected 888 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: to this person's personal history, and the NFL offices in 889 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: that building may have been the primary target. But again, 890 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 1: we are still piecing together motive information. We do know though, 891 00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: about those victims, and that is truly tragic. Welcome back 892 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 1: to American Sunrise Early Addition. It's a Tuesday. 893 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 2: I'm Jake Novak. Thank you so much for joining US. 894 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: President Trump yesterday, when he was speaking with Prime Minister 895 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 1: kir Starmer in Scotland, talked to reporters about a new 896 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: American effort, a new US effort. He wants to put 897 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 1: in yet another one. It's not like we haven't been 898 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 1: trying to get more food and aid into Gaza. But 899 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 1: as the old folks used to say, that really seems 900 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 1: like we're throwing good money after bad if you, and 901 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 1: just for inflation. The United States taxpayer has probably poured 902 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 1: in at least to trillion dollars into Gaza over the years. Now, 903 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 1: it's been billions since just the October seventh attacks of 904 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, but it's really billions and billions, hundreds 905 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: of billions over the many decades. 906 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 2: And here's the headline. 907 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,399 Speaker 1: It doesn't work because the people who control Gaza these days, 908 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 1: that's come ass and there are other thugs who used 909 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: to control it before in the Palestinian community steal the food, 910 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 1: and they've been using their own people not just as 911 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 1: human shields, but that's the deliberate policy, as human cannon fodder. 912 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: Human shields is not strong enough a word. David Brody, 913 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,439 Speaker 1: I'm only hoping here that President Trump is just doing 914 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 1: this and saying this as a one last clear message 915 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: that he's doing kind of similar to what he's been 916 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 1: doing with Russia, giving them one last clear ultimatum, telling them, hey, 917 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 1: we're going to try to do this one more time, 918 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 1: and when you try to stop it, which you probably will, 919 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 1: then that'll be it. 920 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 2: That'll be it for you. 921 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 1: But this really doesn't seem like the kind of policy 922 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:44,919 Speaker 1: that Trump should be supporting right now. 923 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 6: Absolutely you should not. 924 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 8: Look, we've already, as you said, Jake, I mean, since 925 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 8: the Biden administration has been two billion dollars two point one. 926 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 6: Billion Trump gave. Trump's had sixty million. 927 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 8: I'm trying to figure out where he got that figure from. 928 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 8: I saw thirty million from a month ago or so 929 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 8: to the GHF, which we can get into the GHF 930 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 8: in another segment. But look, the bottom line is is 931 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 8: that I don't want to say I don't get it. 932 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 6: I mean, Trump doesn't. 933 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 8: Really fall to peer pressure much, but there's a lot 934 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 8: of pressure on him to do something here, and so 935 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 8: I don't think it's that. I just think that overall, 936 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,800 Speaker 8: you know, peace through strength. He's a humanitarian to a degree. 937 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 8: I mean, he wants to see people live a better life, 938 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 8: and so I think that's part of this here. 939 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 6: But I just think it doesn't make any sense. 940 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:33,400 Speaker 8: I mean, look that Israel has sent ninety four thousand 941 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 8: truckloads of aid and assistance, food et cetera into Gaza 942 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 8: since the war began. 943 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 6: It could feed Gozen's up to two years. 944 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 8: And if you look even at the Washington Post will 945 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 8: admit that Hamas is stealing some of that. Once again, 946 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,360 Speaker 8: you know, you'll see a lot of reports saying Hamas 947 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 8: is not stealing any of this. 948 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 6: Give me a break. 949 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 8: The Washington Post reporting that fifteen percent, and I think 950 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,800 Speaker 8: it's a very low number, but they're saying fifteen percent 951 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 8: of much of the aid has gone to Hamas. 952 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 6: And of course what are they doing. 953 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 8: They're stealing and then reselling it as you know, to 954 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,959 Speaker 8: make money, just a fund excuse. 955 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 6: Me, their terrorist plans and diabolical regime. So you know, 956 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 6: to me, it doesn't make any sense. Also, here's the 957 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 6: other thing. Let me get this straight. Did I miss this? 958 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 6: I thought all all the Jews controlled the media? Did I? 959 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 6: Did I miss that part? 960 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 1: Right? 961 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 6: All right? 962 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 8: So so all Jews control the media, and we've got 963 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 8: a negative narrative against Israel. So someone try to square 964 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 8: that circle for me, if you don't mind, I think 965 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:35,560 Speaker 8: I know the answer. 966 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 6: But the point is is that it's ridiculous. I got 967 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 6: a lot more to say. 968 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:42,919 Speaker 8: I'm hearing the music which makes me want to dance. 969 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 6: But I gotta go, You gotta go, We gotta go. 970 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll make it clear to you one last time. 971 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: Everyone Israel doesn't have bad pr The world is just 972 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,439 Speaker 1: filled with liars and that's really the way it works. 973 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,600 Speaker 1: It's hard to push back on that. Two hours of 974 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,560 Speaker 1: American Center is coming right up. I'll be joining you 975 00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 1: in the nine am hour. 976 00:46:58,520 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 2: See Toma
