Yes, there's a serious threat against them, 24 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 3: and they're putting a lot on the line by fighting, 25 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 3: but they feel that they're inspiring others to do the same. 26 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 6: From ordinary Americans suggest to me that they have a 27 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 6: keen understanding that when you start violating due process for 28 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 6: any human beings, even if they are not a citizen, 29 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 6: that threatens all of us, that threatens the entire system. 30 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 6: And I'm encouraged. 31 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: By that as well. But kill mar Garcia. 32 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,919 Speaker 6: I hope that Trump is miscalculated, And to your point, Mika, 33 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 6: there's some evidence that maybe has. But what concerns me 34 00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 6: even more though, is if this is not a constitutional crisis, 35 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 6: what does a constitutional crisis then look like? And is 36 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 6: this a test case, a trial run for the Trump 37 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 6: administration to try and do this with a US citizen, 38 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 6: to try and defy Supreme Court orders on social security, 39 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 6: on DOGE, on any manner. 40 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: Of other issues that. 41 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 6: Are at the heart of our democracy for ordinary Americans. 42 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 2: And so. 43 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 6: If the system cannot hold now for kilmar Garcia, will 44 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 6: it hold for the rest of us? 45 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 2: And that is the question. 46 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 7: In so doing, it is continuing to press this argument 47 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 7: that should terrify everyone, which is that the government can 48 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 7: abduct any person off the street, and as long as 49 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 7: it ships them to a foreign prison fast enough, then 50 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 7: there is nothing that federal courts can do to bring 51 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 7: them back. That argument does not end with non citizens 52 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 7: or undocumented people or even green card holders. That argument 53 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 7: would extend to natural born American citizens, and it would 54 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 7: mean that the governments could take you, throw you into 55 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 7: a foreign prison, and then disclaim all responsibility over bringing 56 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 7: you back. 57 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: Even if it did so by mistake, because it. 58 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 7: Doesn't want to ask and it doesn't have any obligation to. 59 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 7: That is something that should chill everybody to the bone, 60 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,519 Speaker 7: because I think it really represents the end of due 61 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 7: process in this country. 62 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 8: Well in my day, in my experience, Whi's been a 63 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 8: couple of years in this. 64 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 5: Game, in an out of government. 65 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 8: I thought it was the Republicans that wanted lower taxes 66 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 8: and the Democrats that wanted higher taxes. Oh, I guess 67 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 8: that's not always true. I thought the Republicans wanted to 68 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 8: reward success, not punishing it. This loose talk about a 69 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 8: higher top another new bracket for millionaires. I don't think 70 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 8: it's a crime to be a millionaire. By the way, 71 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 8: small businesses would pay this top bracket. I do not 72 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 8: understand this. I can't believe mister Trump's going to go 73 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 8: along with this. He campaigned on you know, extending his 74 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 8: tax cuts, adding some great middle class tax cuts on tips. 75 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: And overtime and seniors. That's all good. 76 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 8: Lowering the corporate rate if it's made in America to 77 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 8: fifteen percent, that's a great inducement for people to onshore. 78 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 5: That's what he wants. 79 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 8: Why would he want to penalize successful investors, successful people 80 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 8: who are helping to onshore and successful small businesses that 81 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 8: strike it hot. I don't understand, and I can't believe 82 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 8: what I'm hearing. That's giving me a headache. All tax 83 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 8: station should be tax cut d. 84 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: A surprising shift for the Republican Party, some lawmakers are 85 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: actively discussing the possibility of raising taxes on the wealthy 86 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: to help fund their agenda. NBC News reports raising taxes 87 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: on billionaires, a distinctly progressive policy, has been gaining some 88 00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: momentum among conservatives on capital l A sizable wing of 89 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: the Republican Party staunchley against the proposal. Let's bring in 90 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: one of the reporters behind that report. NBC News senior 91 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: national political reporter saw heilkpor saw, Hell, what are you 92 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: hearing on the hill? 93 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 9: Hey, Mika, Well, this really feels like a hell freezing 94 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 9: over a moment, Republicans are actually talking about accepting a 95 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 9: tax hike on the rich. Senior GP lawmakers saw me 96 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 9: their debating whether to let the tax rate on the 97 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 9: highest earners go up from thirty seven percent to thirty 98 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 9: nine point six percent when the Trump tax cuts of 99 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 9: twenty seventeen expire at the end of this year. Now, 100 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 9: this idea would have been unthinkable over the last two 101 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 9: generations in a party that has been deeply devoted to 102 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 9: lower taxes, including on the most wealthy Americans or as 103 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 9: they call them, job creators. And yet Senator Mike Crapo, 104 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 9: the chairman of the Tax Writing Finance Committee, told me 105 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 9: he's listening to his colleagues on this one and kept 106 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 9: the door open. Senator Kevin Kramer said it's come up 107 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 9: in private meetings as well. He said, quote, it's just 108 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 9: so fun to be a Republican these days, just to 109 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 9: watch the transformation where suddenly people are going, why do 110 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 9: we worry so much about that? That being higher taxes 111 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 9: on the rich? He went on to say, there's a 112 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 9: populism growing in the party, even among those of us 113 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 9: with powdered Wigso, so what's driving this two things specifically, First, 114 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 9: Republicans are struggling to find ways to pay for the 115 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 9: multi trillion dollar cost of this bill. Higher taxes than 116 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 9: the wealthy would help with that. And second, the party's 117 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 9: coalition is evolving, becoming less affluent more working class, leading 118 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 9: some to wonder whether they need to rethink their priorities. 119 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: Steve Bennon, the former. 120 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 9: Trump official turned MAGA activist, told my co author for 121 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 9: the story, Peter Nicholas, that Speaker Mike Johnson needs to 122 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 9: focus on actually cutting spending dramatically and raising taxes on 123 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 9: the wealthy. 124 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray 125 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 2: for our enemies because we're going to medieval with these people. 126 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 4: There's not got a free shot. All these networks lying 127 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 4: about the people. The people have had a belly full 128 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 4: of it. 129 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 2: I know you don't like garing that. I know you 130 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 2: tried to do everything in the world of stuff, but 131 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 2: you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen. 132 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 2: And where do people like that go to share the 133 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: big line? 134 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 5: Mega media? 135 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 2: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of 136 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: these people at a conscience ask yourself, what is my task? 137 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: And what is my purpose. 138 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 10: If that answer is to save my country, this country 139 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 10: will be saved. 140 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 5: War room, use your host CKA. 141 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: It's Wednesday, sixteen April on the Arverler twenty twenty five. 142 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: So multiple fronts on the war against President Trump's second 143 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: term or what he's doing. 144 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 4: You see that. 145 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: Strategically, what the Democrats are doing is they're focused on 146 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 2: where they think they have traction, and that is in 147 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: the courts, and continue. 148 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 4: To come out to the president drum the courts. 149 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 2: Another kind of constitutional crisis where you send these terrorists, 150 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 2: this groups has been designated a terrorist group, and you 151 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: send these people down to Central America, affect this guy's 152 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: at El Salvador and he sent them to a prison. 153 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: And this is all the Democratic Party all day long 154 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 2: is making a huge deal about.

Gavin Newsom's now suing the President from 175 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 2: the state of California as the governor, coming against the 176 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 2: tariffs right. 177 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 4: In this and this is why we have to get 178 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 4: messaging Sharper. 179 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: There's a great tweet out today from was it Walter 180 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 2: Bloomberg that talks about some messaging that happened this morning 181 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: that was quite off message where we put out that 182 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 2: the Chinese do we have the Walter Bloomberg, can we 183 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 2: put that up in Denver, because I don't only have 184 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 2: it in front of me. We're dealing with so much stuff. 185 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 4: Now, is that. 186 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 2: You have They said up to two hundred and forty 187 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: five percent teriffs, Well that was adding you know the 188 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: one forty five and you know what's already there for 189 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: the twenty and it's very confusing. I think the White 190 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: House had to be very specific. It should be putting 191 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 2: out talking points every day in the var These guys 192 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: have to come out because right now this is not 193 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 2: about tariffs and not about trade. 194 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 4: It's much deeper. 195 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 2: This is we're engaged in now economic war with the 196 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 2: Chinese Compries Party. This is Captain Finel says, keep the 197 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 2: main thing, the main thing. 198 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 4: This is the main thing. 199 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 2: There's so much else happening, and we will make sure 200 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 2: that you understand it. Like going after the universities, these 201 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 2: woke universities and cutting off your money. Well of the 202 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: central parts of all of that, whether it's the law firms, universities, 203 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 2: it's all related to your money. They only survive if 204 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 2: they're feeding at the trough of government spending. This is 205 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: the power President Trump has is to cut off the spending. 206 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 2: That's where we're even having this debate. This is also 207 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 2: the debate we're having about the economic war with China. 208 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: This is about what your government's been doing and how 209 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: it's been exposing American workers in this country. In President 210 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 2: Trump is now finally standing up for this. It is 211 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: as we came on today. Gold is at thirty three twenty. Yes, 212 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 2: I said thirty three twenty. That's three three hundred and 213 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 2: twenty bucks. You go, no, no, understand, that must be wrong. 214 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 2: You mean thirty two hundred. No, I do not mean 215 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 2: thirty two hundred, mean thirty three hundred. We also tell 216 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 2: it's not the price of goal, it's the process. People 217 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 2: are heading to gold because they see that this conflict 218 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 2: and they see it's going up the escalatory latter. I 219 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 2: think it's safe to say now I don't think I 220 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 2: overstate the case that there's kind of an embargo on 221 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 2: both sides. We're now at the stage of the trade board. 222 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 2: You have to see clear here and through the fogger war, 223 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 2: you have to understand exactly where we are. I think 224 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: we're close to the embargo phase between both nations, and 225 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 2: it almost has to get to this in a throwdown 226 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 2: to understand that we're both sides stand on this. This 227 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 2: fight had to come. We've been arguing about this for 228 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 2: years and years and years. The Chinese Commuties Party, finance 229 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 2: by Wall Street, financed by the corporations, finance by Silicon Valley, 230 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: has grown in such power and taken so many jobs 231 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: and so much of our basic supply chain and control. 232 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 2: They have strategic stranglehold. 233 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 4: On the United States. But what do you mean by that, 234 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 4: Steve Well? 235 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 2: Rare earth, which I say is just dirt because it 236 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 2: is just dirt, but it's the processing of it. It's 237 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 2: quite what I say, filthy dirty. That's why it's not 238 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 2: done the United States. We have rare earths. There's rare 239 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: earths all over the world. They process it because they 240 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: don't care about the environment. Magnets which we've allowed strategically 241 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,959 Speaker 2: to make the magnets ball bearings, the ball bearings. They 242 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 2: are imposing now restrictions also on just other things. As 243 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 2: we put these tariffs up, we are countering at the 244 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 2: same time. Navidia, And this is why I think my 245 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 2: strongest recommendation of the White House we should get ahead 246 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 2: of these things. Navidia announces in basically a press release 247 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 2: that there been new licensing requires put in by the 248 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 2: US government. 249 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 4: We already block. 250 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: I think it's Navidia one hundred chip, the highest, most 251 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 2: powerful trip they have has been restricted in selling to China. 252 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 2: They did deep seek I think off the twenty, so 253 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: China needs that as much as they need oxygen. There's 254 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 2: an announcement last night impact into the stock market and 255 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: a fleeing to gold as a safe haven that we 256 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 2: are putting new licensing requirements that we did not delineate 257 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 2: of what they are to restrict the sale of that 258 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 2: chip for to China. The Chinese Commanist Party and their companies. 259 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 2: That would essentially choke down their ability to further where 260 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 2: they're heading under AI dominance. This is not a small thing. 261 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 2: This is I think the equivalent if the license. We 262 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 2: don't know the details, but if it's as hard as 263 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 2: it sounds like, it could be the equivalent of cutting 264 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: Japan off from oil in. 265 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 4: August in nineteen forty one. 266 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 2: I'll go into more detail as we walk through the 267 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 2: entire economic war between the Chinese Counties Party and the 268 00:14:52,240 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 2: United States of America. Next America, Did you see the 269 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 2: China breakdown? 270 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 4: On this page? 271 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 11: Seven of their dick twenty percent went to China.

You saw this during the DEI 345 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 2: when they thought they had the power to crush the 346 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 2: Maga movement, to crush Trump, to crush traditional American values. 347 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:50,959 Speaker 4: You saw it. 348 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: This is what they've done also with China in business 349 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 2: with them and Silicon Valley, Sequoia Capital, and the psychopathic 350 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 2: nerds that run the apartheit state. That's what Trump's up against. 351 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 2: That's what you're up against. Let's make sure we understand 352 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 2: exactly what this is about. It maybe wouldn't even be 353 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 2: as bad, but the lack of maturity, the lack of 354 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 2: the understanding of the moment and how we got here 355 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 2: and how important this is, and right there, back and forth, 356 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: just like on one of the most important days, when 357 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 2: you know, now there is a methodology to go up 358 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 2: the escalatory ladder. Take your number two princil out and 359 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 2: write that phrase down escalatory ladder, because we're going up 360 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 2: and I'm all for it. But if you want to 361 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 2: climb off, you got to have a discussion. And President 362 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,719 Speaker 2: she is not going to pick the phone up and 363 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 2: call you and say, hey, let's get together for a 364 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 2: cup of tea and you have a diet soda. I 365 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 2: have a cup of tea and we'll sit down and 366 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 2: figure this thing out. He's not going to do that. 367 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 2: I don't think I'd be stunned because I'm the so 368 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: sure he'd be around if he did do that. It 369 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 2: has to come some other way. Maybe it can come 370 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 2: some other way. But we're heading down now when they're 371 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 2: cutting us off, and people have to understand, I believe 372 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: we're to total embargo. To make it even a better embargo, 373 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 2: and let's expand this out strategically to the Persians. I 374 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 2: don't understand why we're even discussing things where we're reviewing 375 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 2: what they do the program without a military strike, and 376 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 2: you do not need a military strike, and people using 377 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 2: loose talk about a military strike and bbkiming over here 378 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 2: instead of pushing people to a military strike, We're not 379 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 2: going to have a military strike. We don't need to. 380 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: We can economically isolate and bring to their knees these 381 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 2: crazy mullahs that are running Persia. The simple way to 382 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 2: do it and bring both get the attention of both 383 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 2: is they ship two million barrels, not one point six. 384 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 4: They ship two million barrels of all per. 385 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 2: Day to the Chinese Communist Party to fuel the Chinese 386 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 2: companies party. Their biggest, most important deal is with Persia. 387 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 2: That oil comes out of the Persian Gulf through the 388 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 2: straits of Hermus as a young man. I was on 389 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 2: those battlegroups. Outside of that in the North Arabian Sea, 390 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: they can be quickly turned around and said, you're going 391 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 2: back to Persia. You're not going to go across the 392 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 2: Indian Ocean, past Derisia, through the Straits of Malacca, through 393 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 2: the South China Sea up to China and deliver your oil. 394 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 2: We're not going to do that. We're not playing that game, 395 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 2: and you're going to dismantle and we're going to dismantle 396 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 2: it with you, your nuclear program, all of it. One 397 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 2: thing on the military side, people don't understand. A military 398 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: strike in there is not clean. It's not a military 399 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 2: strike without even infantry or ground forces. It would be horrific. 400 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 2: It would draw us into the biggest war in the 401 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 2: Middle East. It would overwhelm what happened in Iraq and 402 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 2: overwhelm what happened in Afghanistan. You'd be in a good 403 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 2: old ground war, a real ground war, not a three 404 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 2: week run up to Baghdad. That can't happen, It doesn't 405 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,239 Speaker 2: need to happen. As soon as we get focused on 406 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 2: what we need to do here. We are now engaged 407 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 2: fully in an economic war with the Chinese. 408 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 4: Commis Party, which. 409 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 2: Has been brewing for many, many years, and they've been 410 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 2: at war with us. 411 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 4: And now you see, you wake up. 412 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 2: What we've been preaching on the show for year after 413 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 2: year after year is look at the strategic high ground 414 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,880 Speaker 2: they have because American industry allowed it. There are three 415 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 2: deficits to keep in mind. It's the two tradeon dollar. 416 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 2: Every year we're running here right, two train immediately goes 417 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 2: up onto your national debt and you have to continue. 418 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 4: Pay for it because you're never going to pay back. 419 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 2: You're never going to pay back a penny of the 420 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 2: face them out of the debt, not currently how we're structured. 421 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: It's also the twenty five tradion dollar trade deficit. That 422 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 2: means money we've sent to China, eighteen train of it 423 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,959 Speaker 2: dealing directly with the Chinese companies party. We've sent eighteen 424 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 2: trallion dollars to them to build their economy in buying 425 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 2: finished product from it. 426 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 4: And that's that's the net. 427 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,400 Speaker 2: That's the trade deficit that takes all the sorghum and soybeans. 428 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 2: Because we're like a colony, we're just a colony. We 429 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 2: send them raw materials and agricultural products and maybe some 430 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 2: finish goods like the advanced chip design. 431 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 4: But the one don't miss. 432 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 2: And they said at the end, oh, cyber esciony they've 433 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: stolen thirty trillion dollars. They've stolen or we've given them 434 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 2: thirty trillion dollars of intellectual property. They are nothing as 435 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 2: an industrial power, nothing if we had not willingly either 436 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 2: look the other way, they're stealing it and look at 437 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 2: good just Google and read all the news accounts. Companies 438 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 2: will say, well, I couldn't say anything because we would 439 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 2: be banned forever and our government would back us up. 440 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 2: So all the university research that you paid for, all 441 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 2: the small companies that your pension funds, your pension money 442 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 2: in venture capital, private equity, in money markets that got 443 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 2: these companies. Capital got them and let them thrive, American companies, 444 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: not Chinese companies. American companies let them thrive. The intellectual 445 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 2: property was stolen. To do a deal in China, you 446 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 2: had to agree to do a joint venture. Would you 447 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 2: would put your intellectual property in it to get access 448 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 2: to that market? And the elites in the United States 449 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 2: stood by and let that happen. You want to know 450 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:33,880 Speaker 2: why we're in a jam now? And all of a sudden, 451 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 2: you got magnets and ball bearings, and guess what, Jace Medical, 452 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 2: you got the active pharmaceutical and ingredients and all the generics. 453 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: And now the Chinese are saying every day, may cut 454 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 2: off pharmaceuticals. How many years are we warning you about that? 455 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: These people play for keeps, They play smash mouth. China 456 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 2: has been around for what ten thousand years? This is 457 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 2: just another dynasty. She's nothing but another emperor. He's not 458 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 2: elected by anybody, doesn't have any popular support. Beneath it. 459 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 2: They live in fear like they live in fear of 460 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 2: the of the empress, and the empress had just as 461 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 2: a terrible You know, they don't care how many Chinese people, 462 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 2: how many law Baijing were killed or murdered and in 463 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: their reigns not relevant. We're in it now, but we 464 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 2: have to understand exactly where we're in it, and it's 465 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 2: incumbent upon the administration. I think to basically delineate exactly 466 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:38,919 Speaker 2: where we stand in this thing and what is the 467 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 2: bid in the ask because we're going up the escalatory ladder, 468 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 2: of which I agree with, but I think that needs 469 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,719 Speaker 2: to be defined to the American people, say I got this. 470 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 2: I understand it. I understand what this fight's about. This 471 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 2: is about bringing back jobs. It's also it's about bringing 472 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: back high manufacturing job, high value EDIT manufacturing jobs. It's 473 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 2: also a about having the elites stop selling out this country. 474 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 2: That's the elites that one of the tax breaks. We're 475 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 2: gonna get to this when I get back. This is 476 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 2: all inextricably linked, as it should be. And yes, speaker Johnson, 477 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 2: you should be thinking about cutting the vast spending that 478 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: is out of control. How out of control is it? 479 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 2: In the first six months, the deficit is one point 480 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 2: three trillion dollars And Johnson, you pushed doing the premiec 481 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 2: are Okay, we're here, I am projecting and we have 482 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 2: not been wrong on a number in four years that 483 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 2: the deficit this year will be two point five tride 484 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:46,640 Speaker 2: and not two trie. 485 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 4: And we're gonna blow through that. We're gonna blow through that. 486 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 4: We're going to blow through that short break. 487 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 5: To confuse your host, Stephen. 488 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 2: K back the trade deficit with because you're going to 489 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 2: hear from the lads. Oh, it's just an accounting thing, 490 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 2: don't worry about No, that's a total lie. As Lou 491 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 2: Dobbs told you, is President Trump polieves is not? It 492 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 2: shows you how deep the problem is that we're colony 493 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 2: of the Chinese companies party, an economic colony, that trade 494 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 2: deficit of the of the twenty five trillion, right, and 495 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 2: let's just take let's just take the eighteen that's assigned 496 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 2: to China added to the twenty five or thirty, because 497 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 2: it's six hundred bion dollars a year, that's the best estimate. 498 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 2: We have six hundred bion a year of stolen intellectual 499 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,199 Speaker 2: property that you paid for either through taxes to universities 500 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 2: and or the companies essentially given and what they call 501 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 2: cyber espionage. 502 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 4: It's not so much espionage. 503 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, some of it was stolen industrial espionage, some stolen, 504 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 2: but a lot of was just given because the rules 505 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 2: were you had to turn over your intellectual property to 506 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 2: get access to the market in China, and people were 507 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 2: fine with it. The elites are fine with that because 508 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 2: they're going to make more money in China than they 509 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: were here the colony. You add those two together, that's 510 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: one of the reasons you have the budget deficit. Why, 511 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,439 Speaker 2: because you're not having high value at a job, so 512 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 2: you don't generate enough tax revenue. People don't have better 513 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 2: paying jobs, so they don't get better pay they can't 514 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 2: pay more taxes. And in addition, guess what, the companies 515 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,719 Speaker 2: aren't paying healthcare. They're not doing this. So that's why 516 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 2: Medicaid such a big deal. And today you have twenty 517 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 2: four I think Congress would have told Johnson Republicans that 518 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 2: we just can't go in with a meat action and 519 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 2: cut medicaid. You got to be very smart about this. Why, 520 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 2: as I've been saying for a long time, just look 521 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 2: at it. There's a ton of maga of working class folks, 522 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 2: Hispanic black and whites that are on Medicaid, that are working, 523 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 2: not sitting there gaming the system, not asking for a handout. 524 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 2: Why because the jobs don't pay enough. Why don't the 525 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 2: job's not pay enough? Oh, let me go back to 526 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 2: the trade deficit. The reason this has happened is not astrophysics, 527 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 2: and it's not a natural law of the universe of property. 528 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 2: It's not the second law of thermodynamics that made this 529 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 2: like had to happen. If you listen to Paul Ryan, 530 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 2: if you listen to all these Republicans for years who 531 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 2: were controlled opposition, who made money and got us in 532 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 2: the situation because they didn't stop the oligarchs and the 533 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 2: elites from doing this, and they were an active party 534 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 2: to it. You would think it's just a natural property. 535 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: But this is the free trade. This is how works now. 536 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 2: It's a mercantilist system. It's what Adam Smith actually warned 537 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 2: us about. It's what the patriots we're leading up. What 538 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 2: is Saturday? Saturday is the two hundred and fiftieth what 539 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 2: a quarter of a millennia, two hundred and fiftieth and 540 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 2: of versary of our patriots have finally had a belly 541 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 2: full of it, the handful of them against an empire. 542 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 2: And what was that empire? Against a worthless landed aristocracy 543 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 2: that had corrupted commons just like the House of Representatives 544 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 2: in congresses corrupted. They bought and paid for him. So 545 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 2: it wasn't what Englishmen had fought for. 546 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 5: Oh. 547 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 2: In addition, the crown was able to give monopolistic power. 548 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 2: The things like the British East India Company, the ship 549 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 2: that was in Boston Harbor that had the tee thrown off. 550 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 2: It was the East India Company had a monopoly. I 551 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: guess who were the leaders of that To get it rolling. Oh, 552 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 2: John Hancock and Sam Adams a couple of freebooters. Heretofore 553 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 2: may be referred to as smugglers who wanted to go 554 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 2: around the system, not want to pay the tariff put 555 00:30:54,520 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 2: in to kind of because monopolistic power. That it's our heritage. 556 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 2: What do you think got them fired up at Lexington Common? 557 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 2: What do you think got them fired up in the 558 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 2: Bridge of Concord where Emerson came back one hundred years 559 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 2: later and wrote that magnificent poem about what they stood 560 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 2: for that resonates down through every page's grave to modern 561 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 2: time itself. That's what this fight's about. It's the same fight, 562 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 2: the little guy getting crushed. But it's all on the 563 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 2: little guy. I remember, it's all on your shoulders. It 564 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 2: can stop at the moment you say it's going to stop. 565 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 4: You have the power. Don't let them tell. 566 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 2: You don't have the power. You have the power. They 567 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 2: don't have the power. They've convinced you, they've put you 568 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 2: to sleep, that you don't have the power. That this 569 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 2: is the second law thermodynamics. This is just the way 570 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 2: the world's got to be, this economic organization. That you 571 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 2: live like a pauper, that You're constantly concerned about your 572 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 2: tax can you pay? Are you constantly concerned about your 573 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,479 Speaker 2: credit cards? Can you pay it off? Even if your 574 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 2: middle class and got a nice job, you get laid 575 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 2: off and one of these corporate restructions, they do not 576 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: give a damn about you as a person, will throw 577 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 2: you out of the office right away. In one hundred days. 578 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 2: You're sweating bullets and not sleeping. How am I gonna 579 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 2: pay the mortgage? I'm gonna send the kids to college? 580 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 2: How am I going to pay for the little League? 581 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 2: That anxiety and angst and as it goes down the 582 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 2: food chain, it's hot, people don't hamm any another meal. 583 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 2: How can we as Americans sit there and think of 584 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 2: the thriving nature of the food banks and we know 585 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,239 Speaker 2: now it's people just going to kind of top it off. 586 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 4: I gotta get this. I gotta get this. Is that 587 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 4: the United States? 588 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 2: Is that what those patriots in Lexington, Common fought for, 589 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 2: is that where they made the standard concord. Hell no, 590 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 2: they would come back here. First thing is say get 591 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 2: off your ass and do something like the folks in 592 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 2: Greenville and Tarren County that said we've had enough of 593 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 2: this and we're going to set things right, and the 594 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 2: first thing setting right is the basic thing, just like 595 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 2: in the Revolution, a committee of correspondence. Let's have a 596 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 2: town hall meeting, let's get going, and then behind the scenes, hey, 597 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 2: maybe we've got to get more organized. Because these brids 598 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 2: know how to run the deal. The British were just globalists. 599 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 2: They were just organized power. Don't think the crown and 600 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 2: what happened happened in London. It was the capital of 601 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 2: the world like New York City is today. They knew 602 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 2: how to run the deal. Okay, their deal. Why do 603 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 2: you think so many prom why do you think that, 604 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 2: but so many prominent, the Hamilton's of the world, the 605 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 2: Jefferson's of the world, the Adams of the world, and 606 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 2: all the other tiers men of the world. Why did 607 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,719 Speaker 2: they revolt against this? Why did they put it on 608 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 2: the line? Because they understood if we could stop that 609 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 2: then and create our own thing, it would be and 610 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 2: they had a vision it would be the greatest republic 611 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 2: in the history of man. That's where they look to 612 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 2: the not the Roman Empire. They looked to the Roman Republic. 613 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 2: They were fighting the empire. They were fighting what Rome 614 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:21,280 Speaker 2: devolved into and what Britain devolved into that's your heritage, 615 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 2: that's your lineage. But understand it. See what you see 616 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 2: in this moment in history, in the land of the blind, 617 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 2: the one eyed man is king. Just understand exactly where 618 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 2: we are in history, where we are in global history. 619 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 2: Why they hate Trump, why they want in prison Trump, 620 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 2: why they hate you. You are disrupting the entire system, 621 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 2: because the system, in the institutions and the people that 622 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 2: ran it in this country betrayed the basic foundational elements 623 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 2: of this constitutional republic full stop. And you either accept 624 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 2: that and live with it. And I'm not saying you 625 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 2: can't have a comfortable life. People had comfortable life in 626 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 2: the rev Just if you just want to get tapped 627 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 2: along it, just do your own thing and don't care 628 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 2: about it. Hey, that's fine, your free men and free women. 629 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:22,760 Speaker 4: Do what you want. But if you believe. 630 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 2: Not just in this country, but the foundational principles of 631 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 2: this country, and know the foundational principles of this country 632 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 2: are not going down to El Salvador in prison with 633 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 2: a big media display. You want to do that, do it. 634 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 2: But citizens, particularly are most helpless citizens have been prayed on, 635 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 2: prayed on by these terrorist gangs prayed on and Trump's 636 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 2: finally said, We've had enough, and here's what I'm going 637 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 2: to do. And I'm commander in chief and I'm going 638 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 2: to do it. And I dare a federal court to 639 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 2: get in the way of that. And so now all 640 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 2: were hurtling towards the constitutional crisis. We'll get, you know, 641 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 2: bring it on. 642 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 4: We got. 643 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 2: We're in an economic war with a superpower that was created. 644 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 2: Always remember this, and when and when Jim Cramerson there, 645 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,919 Speaker 2: my professor Alison Graham, well, you should have asked, Jim, 646 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 2: you should have read the book and understood it more 647 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 2: than a sophomore in college. Because the book jump, which 648 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 2: jumps off the page, is no group of elites have 649 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 2: ever made more money on the declining power on the 650 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 2: way down than they made on the way up by 651 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 2: selling out the declining power to his rival. And that's 652 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 2: what happened here in the United States of America. The 653 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:46,840 Speaker 2: Wall Street faction, the corporate global corporatist, and Silicon Valley 654 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 2: Hollywood tried to but they're minor players in this. 655 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 4: I'm talking about the Big Three. 656 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 2: And they sold this nation out every single day, not 657 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 2: for ideology. 658 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 4: This makes even worse. 659 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 2: If you think they had some sort of thing of 660 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 2: mankind and maybe communism is the way and all that know, 661 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 2: they're neo Marxist culturally because they're godless, atheist and demonic. 662 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 2: But they sold it out from money. They did exactly 663 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:20,720 Speaker 2: what this week on Thursday, Judas did to Jesus Christ. 664 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,240 Speaker 2: They sold it out for their thirty pieces of silver. 665 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,280 Speaker 2: And yeah they oh it's uncomfortable, and now, oh gosh, 666 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 2: you want to raise our attacks. You damn right, you 667 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,240 Speaker 2: damn right. And Larry Cutler and Steve Moore, you should 668 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 2: be ashamed of yourself running dogs for this group. No, 669 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 2: we're not taking on achievers. It's just simple mathematics. We 670 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 2: have on our watch a one point three treeon dollar deficit. 671 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 2: Embrace it. It's a fact. We have to deal with it. 672 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 2: It's going to be over two tree and it's going 673 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 2: to be two and a half trade and let's have 674 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 2: this conversation on the afternoon of the thirtieth September where 675 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:03,879 Speaker 2: you can kind of figure out what it is gonna 676 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 2: be two point five trillion topped onto the national debt. 677 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 2: So Johnson and I admire the corson where they're finding 678 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 2: the medicaid cuts. I got that, but you have to 679 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 2: have cuts. Medicaid is going to have to be cut smartly. 680 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 2: You can't take a meeting, but you've got to smartly 681 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 2: cut that. One way you can cut it is people 682 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 2: getting better jobs. The way you get better jobs is 683 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 2: bring back higher value manufacturing. The service economy of the 684 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 2: United States does not work for seventy five percent of 685 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 2: the people, so you're not going to have a country. 686 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 2: Those two elements, the intellectual property theft in the trade 687 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 2: deficits are one of the reasons we have these ballooning 688 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 2: deficits because we have decreasing tax revenues or taxers are 689 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 2: not increasing, and you. 690 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 4: Have exploding costs. 691 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 2: A lot of this, some of them trellion dollars of 692 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 2: it is because we also underwrite everybody's security and they 693 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 2: have to start pitching in for that. And one way 694 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 2: did you have to have less swords and more plowshares 695 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 2: is to make sure that we can do this economically, 696 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 2: which we can. Like in Persia, you don't need to 697 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 2: immediately go up the escalatory ladder to start. Let's have 698 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 2: a gunfight.

Chris Acavella, American Securities, You've done an 750 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 2: amazing job. Walk me through when I talked about the elites, 751 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 2: and I'm bashing the elites. Am I being unfair in 752 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:19,240 Speaker 2: your mind? 753 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 12: Sir No, Steve, you know, there's a few things that 754 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 12: you pointed out in the last segment, and what I 755 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,440 Speaker 12: would say is you're getting to the heart of the issue, 756 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 12: which is that that's the dark underbelly of capitalism. The 757 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 12: fact that our money was sent over there, that we 758 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 12: sold out our intellectual property rights, that we hollowed out 759 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 12: America's factories and manufacturing bases and sold everything to China. 760 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 12: China needs this country. We are the world's global debt 761 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 12: fueled consumer and it looks like we're going to continue 762 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 12: to be that. So that's why the tariffs are so important. 763 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 12: That's why cutting off the flow of capital t G 764 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 12: new transition to the military industrial complex, their quantum computing capabilities, 765 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 12: their laser weapons systems, their cyber armies. This is a 766 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 12: very specific, coordinated set of tools that the Trump administration 767 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 12: needs to implement and do it so that it protects 768 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 12: our economic and national security. 769 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 2: So you're a leader, let's talk about we're going up 770 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 2: the exculatory ladder now in this economic war. But let's 771 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: talk about things that could be done here. There's even 772 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 2: Larry Fink said the day if companies of CCP control 773 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:38,919 Speaker 2: companies have done things wrong, they should be considered for 774 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:40,840 Speaker 2: taking them. 775 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 4: Off the exchanges. Right, how much capital? 776 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:46,720 Speaker 2: If we cut off the Chinese companies party from access 777 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 2: to capital and from stealing our technology or just agreeing 778 00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 2: to the joint ventures where we give them the technology, 779 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 2: how much would the current situation change, Sir, I think 780 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 2: would changed tremendously. It would allow us to re implement. 781 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 12: A manufacturing blit base, re establish supply chain efficiency in 782 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 12: this country. 783 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 4: I mean, we learned from COVID. 784 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 12: That we were in a big problem when we needed 785 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 12: critical supplies pharmaceuticals PPE. We can't have that anymore. We 786 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 12: also need a steal industry. We need to be able 787 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 12: to make it manufacture to be self sufficient. That's the 788 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 12: lesson of COVID, and I think when you cut off 789 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 12: the flow of capital to the Chinese Communist Party and 790 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 12: mainland Chinese companies, we're talking about trillions of dollars. You 791 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 12: couple that with increasingly high tariffs. That's more money that 792 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 12: they that will collect at the border, and hopefully, over time, 793 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 12: we can make those products here in the United States, 794 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 12: which should create. 795 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 4: Hopefully, very hopefully over time. 796 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 2: It's just just a fantasy of people like Peter Navarro. 797 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 2: How real is this? How real is bringing back supply chains? 798 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 2: How real is bringing back and returning us to becoming 799 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:00,400 Speaker 2: a manufacturing super power? 800 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 4: Is that real? Or is that just a. 801 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 2: Fantasy that you believe in? Navarre believes and people like 802 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,800 Speaker 2: myself believes. Is this a fantasy? Or can it happen? 803 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:11,839 Speaker 12: It can happen, and it has to happen. It has 804 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:15,800 Speaker 12: to happen for our own self sufficiency. It's just going 805 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 12: to take a little bit of time. And Wall Street's 806 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 12: throwing a fit right now because of what you said before. 807 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 12: I mean, you have global elites who don't want to 808 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 12: relinquish power, because as soon as they relinquish their access 809 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 12: to all of the riches that they have, those have 810 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 12: to be a redistributed to everybody else who was part 811 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:32,359 Speaker 12: of the Trump base. 812 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 4: Okay, can you hang on for a second. 813 00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 2: I want to hold you for a minute through the break, 814 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 2: and the Great Air Prince is going to join us. 815 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,479 Speaker 2: But I want to look at this Financial Times of London. 816 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 2: Of course, my favorite paper headlines Wall Street Banks read 817 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 2: thirty seven billion dollars after traders cash in on Trump volatility. Remember, 818 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 2: volatility is one of the things that you trade back 819 00:45:55,760 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 2: and forth with velocity, you will make money. These guys 820 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 2: are making money. And Larry Cudlow and Steve Moore, the 821 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 2: great big crocodile, tiers on taxes. At bottom line, the 822 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:12,840 Speaker 2: elites in the upper bracket never for they're the ones 823 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 2: that have control this city. They're the ones that control 824 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 2: the congressman, and they control the Senate. It's the reason 825 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 2: spending doesn't stop. Spending doesn't stop because the elites in 826 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 2: this country are consolidating more and more power and more 827 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 2: and more economic power with the deficits. The deficits help 828 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 2: them more government spending helps them. I'm gonna give you 829 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 2: some pattern recognition. He brought the law. Trump brought the 830 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 2: law firms to their knees. How did he bring the 831 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,320 Speaker 2: law for the law firms to his knees? When he 832 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,760 Speaker 2: sent the letters to them to take away the security clearances? 833 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 2: He says, you're not eligible to work on anything related 834 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 2: to government contracts or government work.
