1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,080
Speaker 1: Well, we have come in.

Speaker 2: and if you want a little banging, a union and

5
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 2: come along.

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 3: But regime change is not the policy of the United States.

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 3: It is not the purpose of this attack. Yet we

8
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 3: refuse to accept a fascist America.

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 4: You are the community to this president's chaos, and together

10
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 4: we build a future of opportunity and justice for all.

11
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 2: Trado is back in style. Welcome, we have coming to

12
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: your city, going the way I get talis and saying

13
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 2: you a conscious sill.

14
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 3: The New Sean Hennity Show more I'm the Scene's information

15
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 3: on freaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.

16
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 5: Coming up next our final News round Up and Information

17
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 5: Overload Hour.

18
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 3: A news round Up Information Overload Hour. Our toll free

19
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 3: number is eight hundred and ninety four one Sean. If

20
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 3: you want to be a part of the program. If

21
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:30,839
Speaker 3: you're following Jerome Powell the Fed share in any way, shape,

22
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: matter or form, it is clear he does not like

23
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 3: Donald Trump. To me, it's gotten personal, especially on the

24
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: issue of interest rates, because when you look at the

25
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 3: economy and you know all of the doomsday predictions have

26
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 3: fallen flat. And it's getting a little bit frustrating to

27
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 3: me because with what he is now, his incredible reluctance

28
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 3: and resistance to do any thing that would be wise

29
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 3: and smart to help the economy, it just defies logic

30
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 3: and common sense. Because every measure Trump is arguing that

31
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 3: the Fed's key borrowing rate should be at least two

32
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: percentage points lower. I agree with him, you know, and

33
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: sure enough, predictably, Powell, you know, when you know, goes

34
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 3: on and on repeating, regurgitating things that just never have

35
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 3: come to viruition. And I don't blame the president for

36
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 3: being unhappy, you know, And it is it just from

37
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: a from a financial standpoint, from the economy standpoint. You know,

38
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 3: if you look at Donald Trump, you know, every prediction

39
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 3: they made about what tariffs would do to the economy

40
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 3: and higher inflation, a massive unemployment, none of this has

41
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:51,079
Speaker 3: come true. None of it. The CPI measure of inflation,

42
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 3: you know, is you know, for the twelve months ending,

43
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 3: you know, we we're now at the lowest levels we've

44
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 3: had in four years. Consumer confidence has never been high,

45
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 3: the number of jobs available for Americans that's never been higher.

46
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 3: And yet interest rates remain ridiculously high. And by the way,

47
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 3: the one area of the economy that is hurting as

48
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 3: a result of it is the home building industry. Because

49
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 3: interest rates are so high, nobody's going to give up

50
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 3: their three percent thirty year fixed rate mortgage to get

51
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: a seven or seven and a half percent thirty year

52
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: fixed rate mortgage. And you can't blame people if not

53
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: wanting to do that, is what Powell said in his announcement.

54
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 6: Changes to trade, immigration, fiscal and regulatory policies continue to evolve,

55
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 6: and their effects on the economy remain uncertain. The effects

56
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 6: of tariffs will depend, among other things, on their ultimate level.

57
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 6: Expectations of that level, and thus of the related economic

58
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 6: effects reached a peak in April and have since declined.

59
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 6: Even so, increases in tariffs this year are likely to

60
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 6: push up prices and weigh on economic activity. The effects

61
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 6: on inflation could be short lived, reflecting a one time

62
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 6: shift in the level. It's also possible that the inflationary

63
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 6: effects could instead be more persistent. Avoiding that outcome will

64
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 6: depend on the size of the tariff effects, on how

65
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 6: long it takes for them to pass through fully into prices,

66
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 6: and ultimately on keeping longer term inflation expectations well anchored.

67
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 3: Hi joining us now to respond. Joe Lavornia is with

68
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 3: US Treasury economist, and he's here to discuss Powell's inability

69
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 3: to step outside of his own political bias and help

70
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 3: the American people. He's also costing the country a fortune

71
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 3: because we're paying the higher interest rates as well. What's

72
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 3: your reaction to me, it's personal and political. Your thoughts, oh.

73
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: Hi, Joan, thanks very much for having me as as

74
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: counselor to Secretary Best and we don't want to weigh

75
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: in on monetary policy, but you did raise a couple

76
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,799
Speaker 1: of very key points, and that is under President Trump, inflation,

77
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 1: which is one of his primary goals on the campaign rallies,

78
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: he has delivered in spades. Inflation, as you've correctly said,

79
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: has come down white dramatically and is going to continue

80
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: to drop in all likelihood because of what it should

81
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 1: be imminent passage of the One Big, Beautiful Bill, which

82
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: will help expand the supply side of the economy and

83
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: continue to lift blue collar wages, which I'm not sure

84
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: if you saw this shown, but the White House to

85
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: put out earlier in the week, are growing at the

86
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: fastest rate for an initial term. I'm assuming that I'm

87
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: treating this a Trump term as basically a new term

88
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: because of the gap in between. It's the fastest five

89
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: month increase in real blue collar wages we've had on

90
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 1: record in the day to go back sixty years. So

91
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: there's a lot of good stuff there, and the President

92
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: deserves credit for it, you know.

93
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 3: But I'm having a hard time understanding, and it seems personal.

94
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 3: If you look at the comments of Powell, the economy

95
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 3: has been resilient, and part of that is our stance.

96
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 3: So he's like he thinks he runs the economy, almost

97
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 3: like he believes he's president. Now he'll be out in

98
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 3: May of twenty six, and frankly, from my perspective, come Andy.

99
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 3: It can't come soon enough. I think the frustrating thing

100
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: is we have to wait that long and and maybe

101
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 3: Scott Bessing, his name has been floated as a possible

102
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 3: replacement the Treasury secretary. But somebody that understands the economy understands,

103
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 3: you know, we we we had a target rate, for example,

104
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 3: the inflation rate of two percent where to two point

105
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 3: one percent, so we reached that target rate. Joe Biden

106
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 3: brought that number up to nine point what four percent

107
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 3: or five percent, so it definitely played. You know, raising

108
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 3: interest rates temporarily had its place, but that time has

109
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 3: come and gone, and frankly the President is just you know,

110
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 3: apoplectic about it, and he stuck with this guy until

111
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 3: May of next year.

112
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: The you know, it's when you talk about inflation, and

113
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: he was at a forty five year high under under

114
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: President Biden. And the tariffs and how inflation has come down.

115
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 1: I mean, it's remarkable how the the professional analytical community,

116
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: the professional forecasters has gotten the inflation wrong. So what

117
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: I can tell you is that and we've seen it

118
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 1: how resilient the economy is, and how oftentimes people when

119
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,919
Speaker 1: they say certain things are going to happen, there's no

120
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: question you have to have higher prices because of tariffs.

121
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: And what we've seen, of course, is a terriff being

122
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: absorbed in the margins of the foreign sellers, and it's

123
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: happened as inflation's actually come down, which is which is

124
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: very positive. Youth economy Sean, as you know, is extraordinarily resilient.

125
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: And with the bill imminent passage of that, I we

126
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: should be we should be talking about three percent growth.

127
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: And I know you've talked here about the FED. But

128
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: the other thing I want to mention though, is when

129
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: people talk about deficits because of greasury.

130
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 3: You know, we you did see the Atlanta Fed what

131
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 3: a two week and a half, two weeks ago, you know,

132
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 3: they have projected GDP growth of the second quarter. They

133
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 3: were up to four point six percent. I'm not sure

134
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 3: where it is today.

135
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's around, it's four maybe a little bit less.

136
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: A bounces around. But here's the thing is, we talk

137
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: about interest rates and debt and all these other things.

138
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: You know, the Congresional Budget Office, I believe it's just

139
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: much too pessimistic forecast. They're assuming the next ten years

140
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: the economy grows under two percent. If we're going to

141
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: start growing a three percent plus in the in the

142
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: third and the second quarter, maybe more, and that is

143
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: the new trajectory, which seems to me to be reasonable

144
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: because under President Trump's first term, before COVID, we were

145
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: growing at nearly three percent. Since then, productivity is accelerated.

146
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: We have an II in AI spending boom that this

147
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: bill coming through is going to lift CAPEX in an

148
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: even more meaningful way. We're going to generate faster growth,

149
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: which is give us faster revenues. And this is an

150
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: important point because they see so much financial press. It

151
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: just talks about these big, large deficits with no admission

152
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,239
Speaker 1: that the assum that the assumed growth rate is too pessimistic,

153
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: and it's just sort of like the fear cells.

154
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 3: We look, the Congressional Budget Office does not exactly have

155
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 3: the best track record. You know, one thing that it

156
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 3: seems nobody is factoring in is, for example, the Reagan

157
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 3: tax cuts or or the Trump tax cuts. What happens,

158
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 3: Revenues to the government increase, they don't decrease, and they

159
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 3: always backer that in as a decrease. For example, in

160
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 3: Reagan's term, revenues to the federal government doubled. He created

161
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: twenty one million new jobs. At the time, it was

162
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 3: the longest period of peacetime economic growth in history. The

163
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 3: first three years prior to COVID. In the Trump years,

164
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 3: the president created record low after record low unemployment for

165
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 3: every demographic in the country, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans,

166
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 3: women in the workplace, African American youth unemployment, gas prices

167
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 3: never once during his first term ever got above three

168
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 3: dollars an average per gallon. Gas prices are now down dramatically,

169
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 3: small business optimism, consumer confidences up dramatically. We have low inflation.

170
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: And the only thing that is that is showing signs

171
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 3: of trouble is directly related to the Fed's interest rate policy,

172
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: and that is home to And there's an easy explanation

173
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 3: for that. Who's going to give up a Would you

174
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 3: give up a three year, I'm sorry at thirty year

175
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 3: mortgage to get into a new home at at you know,

176
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 3: double the interest rate, you'd be doubling your payment. It's insane, right, No, So.

177
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: Sure, now I understand your points, Sean, But you know,

178
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: here's the thing. Let's take ten year yields for a minute,

179
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: because I spent most of my career has been in

180
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: the private sector. And the good news, and kudos to

181
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: Secretary Best and and that is the we've gotten interest rates.

182
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: You know, interest rates. The market was very fearful right

183
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: around the Liberation Day that and shortly thereafter the ten

184
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: year yelds to move up to five percent. The good

185
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: news is the economy is booming. Market rates are in

186
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: the middle to maybe slightly below their recent range. As

187
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: inflation comes down more, the inflation component of that long

188
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: term interest rate will come down. And the good news

189
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: is market interest rates can still fall with President trump

190
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 1: policies and that will help homeowners and then hopefully over time,

191
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: you know, we'll see those other rates come down as well.

192
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 3: Well. Once interest straights start coming down, it'll bring the

193
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 3: real estate market back up and there'll be a lot

194
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 3: of activity. But right now, people are going to hang

195
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 3: on to their low interest rate mortgage that they locked

196
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 3: in years ago. Is one of the things that we're

197
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 3: not factoring in here, and that is Donald Trump his

198
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 3: commitments because of his trade policies and the threat of tariffs,

199
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 3: brought this in of over ten trillion dollars. We've never

200
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:35,079
Speaker 3: had commitments like that ever in our country's history before.

201
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 3: And that's new manufacturing inside of America, and that includes

202
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 3: things that are beneficial towards national security. That would be

203
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 3: pharmaceuticals and semiconductor chips, but also you know, revitalizing automobile

204
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,599
Speaker 3: manufacturing in the country on top of you know, artificial

205
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 3: intelligence and new technologies all of that. I mean, aren't

206
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 3: they aren't all these industries going to be creating high

207
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 3: paying career jobs for people well, well.

208
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: That's it. It's that's what the President's policies are designed

209
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: to do, is to bring back high value added manufacturing

210
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: that pay very high wages. And as you were, giving

211
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: a very accurate description of how things have been playing out.

212
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: As the Treasury Secretary has said, national security and economic

213
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: security are one and the same. They're very you know,

214
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: they're interconnected. And you know, we talk about interest rates

215
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 1: and getting interested needing you know, you know, people want

216
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: to interest rates lower, which I understand, but the people

217
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: should also know that the tariffs, which have not led

218
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,719
Speaker 1: to any inflation, also right now we're generating around two

219
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars at an annual rate, and that number

220
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: may even be a lot higher. We're going to get

221
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: a number. We don't have the full numbers for June,

222
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: but the tariffs are bringing in a lot of revenue,

223
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: which also ties into the notion that the president wants

224
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: to rebalance trade, reindustrialize as you said, and of course

225
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: those those foreign capital commitments are also quite substantial.

226
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, quick freak, welcome back. More with Treasury economists.

227
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 3: Joe Lavorgna is with us, and then we'll get to

228
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 3: your calls coming up eight hundred and nine to four

229
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 3: one Sean, if you want to be a part of

230
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 3: the program, continue with Joe Lavorgno talking about the economy,

231
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 3: and a very stubborn fed chair who will be replaced

232
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 3: in May of next year, can come soon enough. As

233
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 3: far as I'm concerned, what do you think Powell does

234
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 3: from here on out? Is he just gonna, you know,

235
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 3: be in this cold war with President Trump? And because

236
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 3: President Trump obviously disagrees with him, you know he's going

237
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 3: to show President Trump who's boss until May of next

238
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 3: year before we can have any hope of, you know,

239
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 3: significantly lower interest rates at a minimum. I think we

240
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 3: needed a fifty basis point reduction yesterday. In my view.

241
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 3: I think the economic numbers warrant that, and I think

242
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 3: that would be just the start. I personally agree with

243
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: the President. I think a one basis point reduction would

244
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 3: be appropriate too, and I think it would have the

245
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,599
Speaker 3: added impact of jump starting the economy in ways that

246
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 3: people aren't even imagining. And if there's one big beautiful

247
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 3: bill comes in and manufacturing facilities. In other words, if

248
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 3: you build a facility, I think it's one hundred percent

249
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 3: you get a tax deduction in year one I mean

250
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,559
Speaker 3: that that's going to incentivize everybody to build immediately.

251
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 1: They're not going to wait, yeah, no, that's right. Well, yes,

252
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: it's You're exactly right on. It's one hundred percent expensing

253
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: a plant and equipment in addition to factories which we

254
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: even had before. That'll be very very supply side constructive,

255
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: meaning it's not going to cause inflation, actually bring inflation

256
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: down as the economy accelerates, which is what we saw,

257
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: as you mentioned earlier, under Reagan implicitly and also under

258
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: President Trump's first term, where we had effectively three percent

259
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: growth prior to the pandemic and inflation was two percent

260
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: or less. Look long term, that all support certainly low

261
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: interest rates, no question, broadly speaking, and you know I'm

262
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: an optimist, so I do expect the housing market to

263
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: recover over time, that affordability won't remain depressed. The income numbers,

264
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: the blue collar boom we've highlighted is certainly very positive.

265
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: So there are a lot of good things going on,

266
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: and I'm going to be hopeful Seawan that.

267
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, the added supply and the higher interest

268
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 3: rates and lack of activities is making home buying more

269
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 3: affordable for people maybe that's certainly good. But if you

270
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 3: really want to stimulate the home buyer market, the single

271
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 3: best thing you can do is you got to you

272
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 3: got to get these interest rates now, because they're too

273
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 3: high and people simply cannot afford to pay two thousand

274
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 3: dollars more for a monthly mortgage payment just because Jerome

275
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 3: Powell has an agenda and he doesn't like Donald Trump,

276
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 3: which is where I feel we're at here. It's to

277
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 3: me it's gotten personal. Am I wrong on that part?

278
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: Sure? I can't comment on that. I mean, I I'd

279
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: rather not say. I mean, I understand your point, but well.

280
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 3: I'd rather not say. Is it of a strong possibility?

281
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: Well, here's what I would say again, I would say that.

282
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 3: It seems per personal to me.

283
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: Well, the I've not talked to the President or cheer

284
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: Power on that, but it seems to me though that

285
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: what we have right now is an environment where we've

286
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 1: got very good growth, inflation's coming down, that by itself

287
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: will pull long term interest rates down. You know, when

288
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: we talk about housing affordability, the income part is very powerful,

289
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: and that's something the President has directly all over, and

290
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: that's looking good home prices in some places have moderated,

291
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: but I do expect over Timeshewan, that you will see

292
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: affordability pick up, because you'll see market based rates come down.

293
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 3: And you know we need I got to run, but

294
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 3: we need interest rates now. But Joe, I appreciate you

295
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 3: being here. I really do, my friend, God bless you,

296
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 3: and American people need some relief with this. You are

297
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 3: listening to the best of the Sean Hannity Show, and

298
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 3: stay tuned more memorable moments, interesting guests, and a lot

299
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 3: of fun coming up next twenty five Dons to the

300
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 3: top of the Hour, Punchline and Patriots that is a

301
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 3: week from this Saturday. And that's in Clearwater and Tampa.

302
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 3: That is at Ruth deckerd Hall. Tickets very limited seats left.

303
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 3: Same with Fort Lauderdale. That's the twenty ninth day after.

304
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 3: If you're interested, we'd love to have you. It's going

305
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 3: to be ir reverend crazy, fun and absolutely politically incorrect.

306
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,360
Speaker 3: That much I can tell you now. We have gone

307
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 3: over the numbers. They are overwhelming, and that is you know,

308
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 3: if you look at even vague news CNN, you got

309
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 3: seventy nine percent of Democrats, seventy nine percent of Independence,

310
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 3: eighty three percent of Republicans, seventy nine percent of all

311
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 3: adults are saying the same thing, and that is they

312
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 3: oppose Iran obtaining nuclear weapons. I think the definitive poll

313
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 3: by Robert Kahelli of Trafalgar and an Insider Advantage head

314
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 3: Matt Towery. They did a joint poll and the question

315
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 3: was very pointed, what is your opinion of President Trump's

316
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 3: position that Iran must be prevented from develop a developing

317
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 3: a nuclear weapon by any means necessary. Seventy four point

318
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 3: four percent said that they approve and agree with that.

319
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 3: And we can go on to the Havid Harris poll

320
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 3: eighty five percent. Yeah, Tehran must never ever get the bomb. Now,

321
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 3: Israel has taken out two of the three sites, there's

322
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 3: one site remaining, and it seems that that site, the

323
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 3: Bordeaux site that we keep talking about, would need American

324
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 3: assistance to make this happen, and hence the decision that

325
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 3: the President will have to make. And I have every

326
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 3: confidence that the President understands he's been saying since twenty

327
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 3: eleven that Iran could not have a nuclear weapon. One

328
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 3: of the more bizarre conversations to arise out of this

329
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 3: is against maga. Donald Trump is against forever wars, You're right,

330
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 3: so am I I'm against forever wars, and with military technology,

331
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 3: I don't think they're ever going to be fought the

332
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 3: same way again. But it's the same Donald Trump that

333
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:21,239
Speaker 3: took out Solomani on the tarmac and that was you know,

334
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 3: that was done, and all the predictions of doom and

335
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,719
Speaker 3: gloom and retribution. Any military effort has risk associated with it,

336
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 3: But then you have to factor in the risk of

337
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 3: a nuclear armed Iran, the number one state sponsor of terror,

338
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 3: that has fired hundreds of thousands of missiles. They're firing

339
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 3: them right now into Jerusalem as we speak. They've been

340
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 3: firing him to heavily civilian areas, populated civilian areas like

341
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 3: Tel Aviv, and they have sworn to wipe Israel off

342
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 3: the map in the United States, off the map. They

343
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 3: have made these threats repeatedly. But it's also the same

344
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,680
Speaker 3: Donald Trump that wiped out the Caliphate, the same Donald

345
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 3: Trump that took out Bagdaddy and associates. I'm not sure

346
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 3: how Some are saying that the mag of movement is

347
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 3: an isolationist movement, which means no involvement at all it's not.

348
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 3: It is no way contradictory to say that this one

349
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 3: remaining site needs to be taken out. And if it's

350
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 3: the United States at a time when their air defense

351
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 3: systems are down, it's the safest it's ever gonna be.

352
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 3: But there's always risk with any military operation. And take

353
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 3: it out and forever end the threat of iranium Mullah's

354
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 3: married to their sick converter die ideology, and forever remove

355
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 3: that threat of a modern day holocaust. To me, is basic,

356
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 3: simple common sense. Yeah, that also would be part of

357
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 3: the Trump doctrine, and Donald Trump is it's not inconsistent

358
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 3: if you take out those sites the way you took

359
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 3: out Solo Mony Bagdaddy and associates, and also the Isis

360
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 3: Caliphate and not have a forever war. Nobody wants that.

361
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 3: I definitely don't anyway. Senator Lindsey Graham, South Carolina is

362
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 3: with a senator, how are you good?

363
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 5: Thanks so much for having me.

364
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 3: Let's get your take on all of this. To me,

365
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 3: it's a window of opportunity. Their air defenses are down.

366
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 3: The President has been clear what his policy is. They

367
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 3: can't have a nuclear weapon. He's been saying it since

368
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,959
Speaker 3: twenty eleven and hundreds of times since, it seems like

369
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 3: the moment is here.

370
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, the forever war is started in nineteen seventy nine

371
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 5: when the Ayatoa replaced the Shaw, they held our embassy

372
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 5: personnel hostage. Since nineteen seventy nine, Iran has been waging

373
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 5: war through Moses Blah and the Hoodies against Israel. They

374
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 5: have American blood on their hands. So that's the war

375
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 5: I'd like to end. And if you don't believe Iran

376
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 5: would use a nuclear weapon to destroy Israel, you're not

377
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 5: listening to what they're saying. If you don't believe they

378
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 5: would use a nuclear weapon to come after us to

379
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 5: infidel you're not listening to what they say. Hey, November

380
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 5: fourth and Iran is commonly referred to as Death to

381
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 5: America Day. In nineteen eighty seven, they made it a holiday.

382
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 5: That was the day they took over our embassy. We

383
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 5: have a military for a reason, to protect our way

384
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 5: of life, protect our homeland, and protect our allies. You know,

385
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 5: when my dad was drafted World War two, the term

386
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 5: was called the duration We're going to fight and we

387
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,199
Speaker 5: beat the Nazis, took Berlin and took Tokyo, and we

388
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 5: did in this war. We're not going to have ground

389
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 5: troops and it won't last forever because we have the

390
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 5: capability to destroy the Iranian nuclear program working with Israel

391
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 5: fairly quickly. We're down to one site deep underground, about

392
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 5: a half a mile under the ground. We have technology

393
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 5: and bombs and capability.

394
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: Israel doesn't.

395
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 5: It is my advice to President Trump, help Israel finish

396
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 5: the job. Go all in to destroy the last nuclear site.

397
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 5: If we take this program on and we don't finish it,

398
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 5: it will be a disaster. Still I's finished the job.

399
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,959
Speaker 3: I agree with you, and I actually think that the

400
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 3: Israelis have done a spectacular job on their own. Now

401
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 3: we have to factor in that Iran and Iran through

402
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 3: their proxies. And I've been tot Israel a number of

403
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 3: times as you have been there, many many times, many

404
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 3: many times more than me. I mean, I went to

405
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 3: one border town with Gaza at the time, and I

406
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 3: think twenty fifteen had been hit with ten thousand rockets.

407
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 3: In ten years. They have withstood Huti rebel rockets, his

408
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 3: Bola rockets, Islamic Jihad rockets, Hamas rockets, Kuds forces, Iranian

409
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 3: Revolutionary Guards forces, helped develop the October seventh attack against Israel.

410
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 3: They provided the weaponry for that. They've been fomenting terror,

411
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 3: not just in the region, but around the world. There's

412
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 3: not a single country that wants to come to Iran's defense,

413
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 3: and we now find ourselves with a window of opportunity

414
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 3: to forever remove any possibility they'd have this weapon of

415
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 3: mass destruction married to their ideology. Now, how is that

416
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 3: any different than taking out Solomani by Dadian associates or

417
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 3: beating the Caliphate. I don't see that as inconsistent at all.

418
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 5: Well, I think, yeah, you're dead right. The primary job

419
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 5: of beating Commander in chief President the United States is

420
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 5: to protect us our homeland from existential threats and to

421
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 5: protect our allies, and we have no better allies than

422
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 5: the state of disrals. Iran has nine hundred pounds of

423
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 5: highly enriched uranium that could make about a dozen bombs

424
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 5: if they went to the last mile. They're at sixty percent.

425
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 5: To get to ninety percent is weeks, not years. They

426
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 5: have one Savinan reactor. They haven't used any of the

427
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 5: enriched uranium to run that reactor. They get their fuel

428
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 5: from Russia. So this is weapon grade material and large quantity.

429
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,239
Speaker 5: They've been doing this for decades, and their goal is

430
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 5: to develop a nuclear weapons force to use as part

431
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 5: of their ideology. I don't think Rocketman's going to attack America.

432
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 5: I don't believe Putin's ambition is to destroy Israel, destroy

433
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 5: the United States, nor I believe that about China. I

434
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 5: think they're mercantile. I think they're an adversary. But I

435
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 5: believe this regime is founded on a religious ideology that

436
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 5: makes them religious Nazis. They're being told by their version

437
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 5: of Islam to destroy the Jewish state, to drive out

438
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 5: the infidels, and to purify Islam. They're not elected. It's

439
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:42,199
Speaker 5: a theocracy. They mean what they say. Four presidents have

440
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 5: said Iran can't have a nuclear weapon.

441
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: It will be Donald J.

442
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 5: Trump who makes that a reality period. All we need

443
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,479
Speaker 5: to do is help Israel finish the last site and

444
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 5: wait and see what happens after that.

445
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 3: Is that in your mind, and obviously protecting our interests

446
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 3: in the region, Is that basically the job that you

447
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 3: want President Trump to accomplish. For example, there are other targets.

448
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 3: I mean, most of their refineries are on this one island,

449
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 3: and you can wipe out any ability of them in

450
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 3: the future to make money. The Israelis could do that

451
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 3: on their own. They don't need our help or assistance

452
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 3: for that. Certainly they can knock out their gas power

453
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 3: grid and the entire country will be without power. That's

454
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 3: another easy target because the Israelis own the sky over Iran.

455
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 3: So you know, once the nuclear component is out of

456
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 3: the way, I guess at that point it's going to

457
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 3: be up to Israel what they decide to do in

458
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 3: their conflict with Iran. And frankly, with all the weapons

459
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 3: they've fired into Israel, I wouldn't I wouldn't put it

460
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 3: past them to take.

461
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 1: It all out.

462
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 5: Well, so here's the question for Israel and really the world.

463
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 5: We can destroy their infrastructure to enrich uranium. There's one

464
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 5: site left, but as long as the regime is in power,

465
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 5: they'll rebuild it over time, and President Trump is not

466
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,919
Speaker 5: going to be present forever. So the question for the world.

467
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 5: The largest state sponsor of terrorism is Iran. Under US law,

468
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 5: they have a policy to decimate Israel and to reshape

469
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 5: the entire path in a way to exclude US. Convert

470
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 5: or die is their ideology, wouldn't it be great for

471
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 5: the people of Iran and the world if this regime

472
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 5: went away, and people say, well, what will come next,

473
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 5: Here's what I'm going to tell you. The guy in

474
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,919
Speaker 5: charge wants to kill all the Jews. He wants to

475
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 5: kill us. They beat a young girl of death on

476
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 5: a bus in Iran because she didn't cover her head.

477
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 5: I'm willing to risk it won't be any worse than

478
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 5: that guy. So the bottom line is I hope and

479
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 5: pray that the Iranian people will know freedom. It will

480
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 5: be up to them to take the rear down. But

481
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 5: Israel will not tolerate living this way anymore. The Jews

482
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 5: and Israel are oppressed by everybody around them. They have

483
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 5: lived in fear, they have lived in an oppressive environment

484
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 5: since this founding. October the seventh, children were murdered, women

485
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 5: are raped in front of their children. They've had it,

486
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 5: they should have it. I am tired of living this way.

487
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 5: To our friends in Israel, do what you have to

488
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 5: do to be safe, and they're making us safer. The

489
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 5: people they're fighting want to kill us two and to

490
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 5: all these people sitting in the sands. Second guests in Trump,

491
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 5: you have no idea what you're talking about you wouldn't

492
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,479
Speaker 5: know the differman of Sunni and Ashia than anything. So

493
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 5: this is a religious deocracy. They're fanatics. They're dedicated to

494
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 5: killing all the Jews and coming after us. They meant

495
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 5: it when they say Israel, death of America. So I'm

496
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 5: hoping in praying we take their nuclear program down. Israel

497
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 5: wants to take the regime's ability to wage war down

498
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 5: by destroying their refineries, destroying their ability to wage war.

499
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 3: So be it well at that point, if the United States,

500
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 3: in a joint military operation, helps take out this final

501
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 3: nuclear facility, then it really comes down to the Israelis

502
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 3: and how far they want to go. I don't think

503
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 3: President Trump has not expressed any desire for regime change,

504
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 3: even identified that they know where the Supreme Leader is,

505
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 3: but they're not going to kill him. But he did say,

506
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 3: and he has said consistently for now decades, that they

507
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 3: can't have a nuclear weapon and that would be in

508
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 3: the best interests of the United States. And at that

509
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 3: point the Israelis, I mean, after all that Iran has

510
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 3: done to murder and rape, and you're right on October seventh,

511
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 3: but it's an ongoing, never ending you know, missile barrage

512
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 3: funded by Iran and their proxies.

513
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 5: Well, so President Trump has told the I told you

514
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,479
Speaker 5: attack American bases or interest, that will be the end

515
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 5: of view. That will be regime change. If they come

516
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 5: after our forces in the region, that will be the

517
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 5: end of the Iahtolas. But put yourself in israel shoes

518
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 5: for a moment. What is the right response when people

519
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 5: lob rockets consistently at Savillean populations, They raide your country,

520
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 5: They murder, rape children, women, they have people hostage. What

521
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 5: would we do if one country, if a country sent

522
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 5: one rocket in to America, Well.

523
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 3: I have to go one rocket. I've been making the

524
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 3: same argument. We would demand immediate military auction center. O.
