Meanwhile, in Florida, the two special elections 6 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: for vacated seats in the US House of Representatives stay 7 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: with the GOP that gives the Republicans a seven seat 8 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: majority in the House, and every vote counts. 9 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 2: Speaker Mike Johnson knows that all too well. This morning, 10 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 2: Attorney General Pam. 11 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: Bondi says the Justice Department will seek the death penalty 12 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: for Luigi Manngione, accused of gunning down the CEO of 13 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: United Healthcare in New York and December. But will going 14 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: for the death penalty make it harder to convict them? 15 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: And a guy who's already become a folk hero to 16 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: the radical eth will they now care about him even more? 17 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: Its Liberation Day, as the White House calls it. With 18 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: tariffs now in effect, perhaps more importantly, we know more 19 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: of the details about just how high those tariffs are 20 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:09,279 Speaker 1: going to be. Wall Street is acting absolutely schizophrenic about 21 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: this news every day, and Russia continues to do almost 22 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: everything to undermine President Trump's efforts to broker a peace 23 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,279 Speaker 1: with Ukraine. Is peace even possible now considering the history 24 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: of this conflict on all sides? 25 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 2: American Sunrise Early Edition starts now. 26 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 3: Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, freedom, 27 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 3: and the values that built this nation takes centers. 28 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 2: To your good, thieves and bad deeds.

Things were 39 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: decided pretty you know, pretty early, and it seems like 40 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: again I'm trying to take victories where we can take them. 41 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: At least the votes were counted properly. I guess joining 42 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: me right now is Colonel Rob manus US Air Force 43 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: retired colonel, the host of The Rob Manis Show, and 44 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: first colonel you know you've been, you've run for office, 45 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: you know about these kinds of things. I want to 46 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: get your reaction to last night's election results. I guess 47 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: there's four things to talk about. The Wisconsin's court race, 48 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: the voter id lawn Wisconsin, and of course the two 49 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: races in Florida. Just your overall impressions of those that 50 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: mish mash all those four together. 51 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 4: Well, it's great news out of Florida, you know, although 52 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 4: I didn't really expect that Randy Fine would lose, but 53 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 4: you know. 54 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 5: It's interesting. 55 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 4: The quality of your candidate is always the most important 56 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 4: piece to any election, regardless of endorsements. And I think 57 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 4: that you know approves that. But it bodes well that 58 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 4: we pulled that off and everything. And yeah, the voter 59 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 4: ride d law passing in Wisconsin, I think is fantastic. 60 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 5: It's amazing. I know a lot of people are going 61 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 5: to be confused. 62 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 4: So how could they vote for the liberal judge and 63 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 4: for voter idea at the same time. And I just think, 64 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 4: you know, the population of Wisconsin, the majority up there, 65 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 4: they have a different way of thinking about this. Unfortunately, though, 66 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 4: with that loss of the judge ship, we could lose 67 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 4: two House seats very very. 68 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 5: Soon with redissecreeing. 69 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 4: And that's exactly why the President pulled the least Stephonics 70 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 4: nomination to the UN back so we could maintain that 71 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: flim majority with. 72 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 73 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: I mean, listen, President Trump want a clear majority in November. 74 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: And it's great, great news about those House seats in Florida. 75 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: But again, we can't really loud ourselves. 76 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: This is still a very heavily divided country and I 77 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: don't want to get into too much right now. We'll 78 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: do it later in the program, but I have one 79 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: word to explain that split vote in Wisconsin with voter 80 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: I D carrying by even more votes than Susan Crawford 81 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: won for that seat. And the answer is one word. 82 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: It's abortion. We'll talk about it a little bit later 83 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: in the program. But Colonel you're here to talk about 84 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: our security situation in the world, and I want to 85 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 1: talk about first about these developments out of Russia. Just 86 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: for the last few days, it really says now some 87 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 1: really disturbing stuff. I think, if you really want peace, 88 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: the Russians saying they really aren't going to accept the 89 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: Ceaspire terms as we have hammered them out, as the 90 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: US has hammered them out. And you know, it seems 91 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: to me now like you know, it's now the balls in. 92 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: Our court President Trump's court. 93 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: I mean, he's already said a few days ago that 94 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: he's very angry at Vladimir Putin and then he's ready 95 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: to do some sanctioning about this. 96 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 2: Where do we go from here. 97 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 5: Well, we've got to get them in a room. 98 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 4: I think it three principles in the room and see 99 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 4: if we can hammer something out. You know, it's from 100 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 4: a Ukrainian perspective, in Zelenski's perspective, if we could get 101 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 4: him in the room and play to his ego just 102 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 4: a little bit, that might bring him closer to being 103 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 4: less and transigent than he has been. And I think 104 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 4: that's part of what Putin where he's coming from. More 105 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 4: than likely, you know, he he's in the catbird seat, 106 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 4: so to speak. His forces have reconstituted from their failures 107 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 4: early in the campaign, and his production capability on the 108 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 4: military industrial side is up. His economy is while it's weak, 109 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 4: it's not as weak as the sanctions that the West 110 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 4: has put on Russia. Have intended it to be. As 111 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 4: a matter of fact, Germany spent more on on you know, 112 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 4: fuel from Russia than they have on giving arms and 113 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 4: support the Ukraine. I mean that's a that's a startling 114 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 4: statistic to a lot of folks that have believed the narrative, 115 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 4: the official narrative coming out from NATO, the West and 116 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 4: from Ukraine. 117 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 5: But it's true and it's just a fact. 118 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 4: And I think that's why President Putin is behaving the 119 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 4: way he is. He's behaving as if he's, uh, the 120 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 4: country that's got the upper hand and continues. 121 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 5: To have the upper hand. 122 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 4: And I don't think he's going to accept any kind 123 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 4: of ceasefire on the ground portion uh, until he's satisfied 124 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 4: that the Ukrainians are going to accept reality. And the 125 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 4: reality is, Look, the reality is, as we've been saying 126 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 4: for a couple of years now, that Russia pretty much 127 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 4: has the don Bass area, those breakaway republics that voted 128 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 4: to leave Ukraine that are Russian ethnic uh crimea uh, 129 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 4: they have those, and I don't think they're going to 130 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 4: be willing to give them up because they've spent a 131 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 4: lot of blood and treasure to take and occupy those 132 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 4: and keep them unfortun only for Ukraine and the West. 133 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 4: The Russian armed forces are grinding and out the old 134 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 4: Soviet style of groundcombat. Then they grind it up, moved 135 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 4: forward a few inches every day, and nobody's pushing them back. 136 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, colonel, this also comes. I mean, you 137 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 2: can understand some of Russia's restorations here. 138 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: Again, I really think that they are generally the aggressor here. 139 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: But you know, we got this report that even the 140 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: New York Times was willing to put out over the 141 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: weekend showing that under the Biden administration, the United States 142 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: was much more involved in the Ukraine's war planning and 143 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: war operations than previously reported. Now we all suspected this, 144 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: people like you and I were saying this was happening anyway, 145 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: But for the New York Times to put this out, 146 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: I think that really closes the book on any doubt 147 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: about this. And you know, if you're sitting in Russia's position, 148 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: sure you're happy that Biden's gone and you have a 149 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: better potential partner in Donald Trump, but you know that 150 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: I get the feeling that there's a little bit of 151 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: revenge that's being exacted here on just the United States, 152 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: even though there's new leadership. 153 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 2: I wonder if you feel the same way. 154 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 4: I do feel the same way, you know. And my 155 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 4: response was what took so long? Because we've been saying this, 156 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 4: especially those of us in the profession of arms here 157 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 4: in the United States, have been saying this, that this 158 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 4: is more than just a proxy war. This is war 159 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 4: between NATO, the United States and Russia. It's just that 160 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 4: we're using the Ukrainians as our armed forces. 161 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 5: To do it. 162 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 4: Then President Putin and his team they have seen that 163 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 4: all along too. I mean, go back and look at 164 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 4: the rhetoric that's been coming from the Kremlin all these years, 165 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 4: and you'll see that they acknowledged it, and they saw it. 166 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 4: And we're very fortunate that they haven't struck targets outside 167 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 4: of Ukrainian territory. And I think that actually sends a 168 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 4: very strong message. That piece is very possible still because 169 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 4: you know, they don't want to risk a nuclear conflagration 170 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 4: with the United States. They don't want to risk war 171 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 4: on the rest of the continent of Europe. And that 172 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 4: action or lack of action sends it that very strong signal. 173 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 4: So we've still got an opportunity here but I think 174 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 4: it's going to take personal interaction with President Trump and 175 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 4: President Booting at a minimum, and probably bring Zelensky to 176 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 4: that table too. 177 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: All right, now, let's talk about war elsewhere. Unfortunately, we've 178 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: got a lot of flare ups all over the world. 179 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: Let's talk about that situation at the Diego Garcia base. 180 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 2: Anywhere from two to seven B two. 181 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: Bombers still there in what looks like a real warning 182 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: to Iran. But is it a warning, colonel or is 183 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: it a ramp up for an attack? Where are we 184 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: now in this situation? 185 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 4: Well, we are clearly massing air forces. We've moved moved 186 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 4: another aircraft carrier battle group into the Middle East. It's 187 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 4: now there saw some open source reporting that B one 188 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 4: bomber were deploying back to the Middle East just yesterday 189 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 4: early yesterday morning. So we're clearly massing air forces there. 190 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 5: And that is a not just. 191 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 4: A warning, but it's a warning with teeth. I mean, 192 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 4: this is not something that we do. As a matter 193 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 4: of fact, we have never deployed the number of B 194 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:27,239 Speaker 4: two bombers anywhere in the world ever. So the Iranians 195 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 4: need to pay attention to this, and they really need 196 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 4: to rethink their strategy of using their proxies to do 197 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 4: violent kinetic warfare on not just American forces and NATO forces, 198 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 4: but against international shipping. That's the part that's got the 199 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 4: United States of America directly involved now in forceful, muscular 200 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 4: military operations against the Hutis. And you know what, if 201 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 4: I were advising the President, I'd be advised in them 202 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 4: to go ahead and destroy those Iranian command and control 203 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 4: and targeting ships that have been doing the targeting and 204 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 4: command and control for the Huties the entire time they've 205 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 4: been conducting this operation. It's time to eliminate those and 206 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 4: put that piece of this conflict to bed, and not 207 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 4: just send a message to Iran, but actually make them 208 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 4: pay and be held responsible for this destruction and this 209 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 4: attack on Sibelians. It's clear why this has to happen, 210 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 4: But what I don't want to see is the United 211 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 4: States get in another endless war with the Iranians and 212 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 4: put more boots on the ground. As a matter of fact, 213 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 4: I've called for removing America's ground force boots on the 214 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 4: ground in the Middle East for some time now. There's 215 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 4: really no strategic and vital national interest reason for them 216 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 4: to be on the ground. Especially Syria has fallen and 217 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 4: we're so called allies with the folks in charge of 218 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 4: that country that are supposed to be in charge of 219 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 4: that country, So we need to get them out of there. 220 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 4: They're just targets. And we've gotten Americans killed but weren't 221 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,119 Speaker 4: didn't need to be killed, and it's ratcheted the situation 222 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 4: up there. But this B two deployment, that is a 223 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 4: huge warning. It's not just a message, it's a warning 224 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 4: because we don't put B two's of over a third 225 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 4: of our four. 226 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 5: Size outside of the United States. 227 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 4: Normally, they fly combat missions from their home base in 228 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 4: Missouri and then return there, maybe after doing a quick 229 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 4: turnaround in Diego Garcia. And there are a lot of 230 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 4: issues associated with deploying those types of platforms to a 231 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 4: location like Diego Garcia and then be able to operate 232 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 4: from there. And we're clearly establishing that base as a 233 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 4: B two bomber base that is within reach of the Iranians. 234 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 5: The Iranians won't be able to stop it. 235 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I mean, this is by the way, 236 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: just our discussion about this just again reminds me of 237 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: something that's always bothered me in my thirty plus years, 238 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: and news is that we don't have a go to 239 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: defense news broadcast or station in this country. 240 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 2: We should. 241 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: There's lots of stuff online. The Internet has really made 242 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: it possible for people to do their own homework. But 243 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: this is an historic, as you say, in historic deployment. 244 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: This would be a lead story if we just had 245 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: a channel or a show that just did defense news 246 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: that was on a mainstream outlet. But you know, I 247 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: try to get as much of it as I can 248 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: with great guests like you, Curtel Ramminess. 249 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for joining us. 250 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: It's only Wednesday, but you know me, I like the 251 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: early have a good weekend wishes. 252 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 2: So I'm going to send that over to you and 253 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 2: thank you again for joining us. 254 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 4: You bet, Jake, I'd be happy to help Rule of 255 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 4: Erica's Voice set up a defense news program that that's 256 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 4: what we cover. 257 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 2: Okay, well, there we go. I'm going to have your 258 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,719 Speaker 2: people talk to my people. Thanks a lot, all right, 259 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 2: coming up the Feds. The Feds want the death. 260 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: Penalty for the man who murdered a healthcare ceo in 261 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: New York in December. I'll talk about the pros and 262 00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: cons connected to that strategy, and Vice President JD. Vance 263 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 1: mixes it up with the so called journalist who thought 264 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: he had the goods on the Trump team's deportation of 265 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: an illegal alien. He learned the hard way that he didn't. 266 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: Don't mix it up with Jade. American Sunrise Early Edition is. 267 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 2: Coming right back. Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. 268 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: I'm Jake Novak Special. 269 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: Welcome to those of you watching and following and commenting 270 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: on Getter and Rumble. Here's a news splash everyone. News 271 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: is now interactive. We don't expect our viewers and TV 272 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: news if you want to be successful, to be just 273 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: passive people sitting and watching television like they were in 274 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: one flew over the Cuckoo's nest and begging Nurse Ratchet 275 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: to change the channel. If you know what I mean, 276 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: You got to have people and allow people to have 277 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: their voice. We love giving that to you here on 278 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: Real America's Voice, all right. Yesterday, Attorney General Pam Bondi 279 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: announced that the Justice Department prosecutors will indeed be pursuing 280 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: the death penalty against Luigi Mangio. And remember that is 281 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: the young man who shot and killed United Healthcare CEO 282 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: Brian Thompson on the sidewalks of New York in December 283 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: in a brazen attack. I don't mean to just convict 284 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: him right there. He's pretty much admitted to the crime. 285 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: There isn't going to be an argument at trial that 286 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: he wasn't the shooter. Just letting you know about that, 287 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: giving you a little bit of a preview. But Bondi 288 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: and the Justice Department want to go for the death penalty, 289 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: and there's some pros and cons involved with this. 290 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 6: Now. 291 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: I think the con here is that already, as many 292 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,239 Speaker 1: of you know, the far left has made a folk. 293 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 2: Hero out of Mangeon going after a CEO. 294 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: A lot of people have some legitimate beasts with the 295 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: health insurance industry. Of course, what they may not realize 296 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: is that shooting one in the streets is only going 297 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: to make. 298 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 2: It worse for a lot of reasons. 299 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: So making him a target of a death penalty, potential 300 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: death penalty, is only going to make them much more 301 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: motivated and try to turn this trial into a referendum 302 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: on health insurance and not about necessarily the crime. The 303 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: good news is, however, is that I think you have 304 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: to have a justice department that reflects the will of 305 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: the American people, and in every poll for the last 306 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: fifty sixty years, the American people have clearly said that 307 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: they support the death penalty. Obviously in cases where the 308 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: evidence is clear. Couldn't be more clear here. Obviously in 309 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: cases where it was a completely unjustified murder. Of course, 310 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: unjustified murder is a oxymois is repetitive. I should say, 311 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: if it's a murder, it's not justified. So there's some 312 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: pros and cons here. It's going to cause a bigger 313 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: amount of debate about this, but look, this has to happen. 314 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: I think we need to have this discussion in America, 315 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: and I hope that it doesn't become just about health 316 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: insurance and it becomes about this brazen crime, because this 317 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: isn't going to solve anything. Of saying this to the 318 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: people he there who have all these legitimate beasts about 319 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: health insurance, you need to understand murdering the CEO made 320 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: things worse, not better for you and your cause. All Right, 321 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: here's another hot tip. You probably shouldn't pick a fight 322 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: with Vice President JD. Vance on social media on especially 323 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: an issue like deportation and border policies. Guy named Kyle 324 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: Cheney tried to do that. Now, you may have seen 325 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: a report in the news media just a couple of 326 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: days ago about how the Trump administration admitted that they 327 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: may have deported the wrong guy from Venezuela and sent 328 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: him to El Salvador. The problem is, the wrong guy 329 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 1: was still not an innocent man. This was someone who 330 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: would judge in twenty nineteen determined was indeed a member 331 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: of the murderous MS thirteen gang. That's something that jd 332 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: Vance reminded that journalist about. And it was also someone 333 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: who had many many other crimes on his rap sheet, 334 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: including the fact that he never showed up to trials. Now, again, 335 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: it was a mistake of some kind. But going again, 336 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: this is once again, I can't believe that the Democrats 337 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: and people in the news media who support Democrats and 338 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: by that I mean elected Democrats and their supporters in 339 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: the news media continue to make it this easy for 340 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,120 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. You're really willing to die on the hill 341 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: that was created by an MS thirteen gang member who 342 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: never showed up the cases. That's what we're crying about. 343 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: It's really really amazing. And Jade Vance called him on it, 344 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,479 Speaker 1: and I think he won that argument. All right, some 345 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: people never learn, or maybe they just don't want to learn. 346 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: About seven months ago, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro was the 347 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: subject of the most overtly anti Semitic incident in American 348 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: political history. I'll talk about that more in just a second, 349 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: but here's what he did earlier this week. He okayed 350 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: a major public donation five million dollars to a Muslim 351 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: cultural center in Philadelphia. And no, that's not a problem 352 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 1: on its base. The problem is the specific cultural center 353 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 1: that he chose. This is a place that has hosted 354 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: rabid anti Semitic speakers, that has had many other events 355 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: that are anti American and anti Semitic. 356 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: This is extremely problematic. 357 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: Now, let me go back to seven months ago, back 358 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: in August, when Joe Biden dropped out of the race 359 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: and Kamala Harris became the nominee again. She was just 360 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 1: installed as nominee for the Democrats. You'll remember that almost 361 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,479 Speaker 1: anyone worth a penny's worth of listening to in the 362 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: political punditry on the right and the left immediately identified 363 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: Josh Shapiro, the young governor of Pennsylvania Democrat, as the 364 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: best choice for Kamala Harris's running mate. He was picked over. 365 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 1: They chose Tim Walls instead, And there's not one honest 366 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: person in the world who will tell you the reason 367 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: was anything other than anti semitism within the Democratic Party. 368 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: They didn't choose Jos Shapiro because he was a Jew. 369 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 1: Anyone who says otherwise is not telling you the truth. 370 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: He was from Pennsylvania, a key swing state, which they 371 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: ended up losing, by the way, by a very small margin. 372 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: I'm not one hundred percent sure they still win Pennsylvania 373 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: if she had chosen Josh Shapiro, but I'm about ninety 374 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: nine percent sure. And now Josh Shapiro had two choices 375 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: after that very very brazen anti semitic choice, of which 376 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: he was the victim. He could have either left the 377 00:19:55,600 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: Democratic Party, or he could triple and quadruple down on 378 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 1: being obsequious of pretending that there isn't a problem, thinking 379 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: that if he does more of what the DNC wants 380 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,959 Speaker 1: him to do, they'll finally give him his due. Of course, 381 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: we know what choice he made. It was the latter, 382 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,239 Speaker 1: and it was a big mistake. That never works. If 383 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 1: Jos Shapiro thinks he's ever going to win the Democratic 384 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: nomination for president. He's deluding himself, and it's a very 385 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: very sad state of affairs. Again, just as a reminder, 386 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: the Democrats deliberately passed over Josh Shapiro in twenty twenty four. 387 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: It was only seven months ago. And this guy's continuing 388 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: to do things which harm not only his own standing 389 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: but also the standing of other Jewish Americans. I don't 390 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: know what to say about it other than I'm incredibly frustrated. 391 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 2: This is a very disappointing development. 392 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: All right, coming up on American Sunrise Early Edition, we're 393 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: going to talk about it's tariff day here in America. 394 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: The President calls it liberation Day. And the stock markets 395 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: continue to swing really wildly on all the tariff news. 396 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: Big gains a couple days ago, some gains yesterday. Now 397 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: they're down. They don't know what to expect. And then 398 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: let's talk about a little bit of car news. Right now, 399 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: the sales numbers are in for March. Heaw did Ford 400 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: and GM do with all those buyers supposedly rushing to 401 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: beat those tariff price likes? 402 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 2: American Sunrise Early Edition, We'll be right back. 403 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: Welcome back to American Sunrise early edition that as Cavalier 404 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: North Dakota. 405 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 2: Hey, we're trying to make people feel. 406 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: Excited about spring and maybe even the summer. And then 407 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: we got to show this North Dakota shot. 408 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 2: It looks like it's the middle of January, but you 409 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 2: know it's still a beautiful shot in the sun. Way. 410 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 2: Thank you for show them. Right, let's take a look 411 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,239 Speaker 2: at where the markets are going to begin today. And 412 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 2: we're in the red to start the day. 413 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, you blink your eyes for one second, 414 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: and the markets are going in another direction. They are 415 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: really trying to get a handle on this tariff thing. 416 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: We could be up by a lot by the end 417 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 1: of the day, you never know. And gold still near 418 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: that all time high thirty one fifty six. And I'll 419 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: talk talk more about gold in just a few minutes. 420 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: And let's look at bitcoin real quick, just for a second. 421 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: Bitcoin again, staying in that range. 422 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 2: It's been stuck. 423 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: Between eighty and eighty eight thousand for a few weeks now, 424 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 1: and there it is right there, just about eighty five thousand. 425 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 2: So there you go, all right. 426 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: A federal judge is rejecting Johnson and Johnson's proposed ten 427 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: billion dollar settlement with the plaintiffs who say that the 428 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 1: company's talcum powder products caused their cancers. So in the 429 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: news because of that, Johnson and Johnson's shares lost eight 430 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: percent in trading yesterday. A lot of people wonder why 431 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: does it happen when a company makes a big settlement. 432 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: Does their stock usually go up? And when the settlement 433 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: is rejected, why does it go down? The answer is 434 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: just relief. People just want to have some clarity on 435 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: how much money is going one way or the other. 436 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: They didn't get that, so now we're going to have 437 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: to start all over again. 438 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 5: All right. 439 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: Visa wants to replace MasterCard as Apple's primary credit card 440 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: partner with Apple Card. You know, Apple has their own 441 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: credit card, the Apple Card, that has to be backed 442 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: up by a bigger company, and it's been MasterCard for 443 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: all these years. Visa wants to get into that business 444 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: and take it away from MasterCard. They're bidding one hundred 445 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: million dollars to get into that business. By the way, 446 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: Goldman Sachs and MasterCard partnered with Apple on the Apple Card, 447 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: but it was revealed in late twenty twenty three that 448 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: they weren't going to continue that partnership. But so far 449 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 1: no one else has stepped in to take it over. 450 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 1: Visa is trying to do that right now. All right, 451 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: the Hooters restaurant chain. I know many of you are 452 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 1: big fans of it. I probably not. I thought that 453 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: it was all gone almost But the Hooters restaurant chain 454 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: is declaring bankruptcy. But don't cry yet. Everyone. Just get 455 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,719 Speaker 1: a hold of yourself if you're a Hooters fan. It 456 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: turns out that they're declaring bankruptcy so one of the 457 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: chain's founders and another franchisee can buy up the company. 458 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: It's a little bit easier to buy these companies out 459 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: of bankruptcy. 460 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 2: That's the reason why they do this, not a lot 461 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 2: of it. 462 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,719 Speaker 1: There was a time where there was a Hooters in 463 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: every town in America. Right now, there's only about thirty 464 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: of them that are what they call high performing Hooters restaurants. 465 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: Those are mostly in Florida and Illinois. 466 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,719 Speaker 1: So for those of you in Florida Illinois, you're going 467 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: to keep your Hooters restaurants. They're mostly sports bars. And 468 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: we know the other reason why people go to Hooters 469 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: is to look at the female waitresses. I get it, 470 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: but it's just not as popular as it was thirty 471 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: years ago. Boy, was that a sensation in America for 472 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 1: those of you who remember the early and mid nineties 473 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: and Hooters. 474 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: All right, hey, this is a start. 475 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: I was telling you now about the tariffs going into place, 476 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: and I'll talk more about that in a minute. But 477 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 1: a big part of the tariff policies for the Trump 478 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,919 Speaker 1: administration is to get all of the other countries in 479 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: the world to remove tariffs against US products. And Israel 480 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 1: became the first country yesterday at least to announce that 481 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 1: it is removing all tariffs on American products. Now, we 482 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: have to take this with a grain of salt. Israel 483 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: didn't have many tariffs on American products. They had a 484 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: ninety eight percent open trade deal with the United States. 485 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: But for those two percent of products, there will be 486 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 1: no more tariffs. All right, that's progress. All right, Let's 487 00:24:45,119 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 1: get our motors running, shall we. All right, GM was 488 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 1: a big winner for the first three months of this year. 489 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: We're getting these sales figures out. The automaker says it 490 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 1: had a sixteen point seven percent jump in American sales 491 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: compared to the first quarter of twenty twenty four. That's 492 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 1: actually a big jump folks. And here's why they had big. 493 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 2: Gains in their full size suv sales. That was a 494 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 2: major reason. All right. Put a little note on that. Now. 495 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 1: Ford reported a one point three percent sales decline, largely 496 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: due to the discontinuation of its Ford Edge Suv. Are 497 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: you sensing a pattern here? For those of you who 498 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 1: watch this program regularly, you know that lover hate this fact. 499 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: Ford and GM only succeed as companies when they are 500 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: focusing on their trucks and SUVs. 501 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 2: That's what they do. 502 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 1: Well, that's what customers love from those two companies. Electric vehicles, sedans, helicopters, 503 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 1: whatever else they want to get. 504 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 2: Into doesn't work for these companies. 505 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: This is like economics one oh one, Car economics one 506 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: oh one. We have the proof once again, GM gets 507 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 1: better sales for their full sized SUVs. Four takes one 508 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: of their SUVs off the market, and the results are 509 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: very obvious. 510 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 2: All right. 511 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: Speaking of another car company, Nissan has lowered the prices 512 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: for two of its most popular models that are also 513 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 1: SUVs by the way, the Rogue compact suv and the 514 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: Pathfinder mid sized suv. The Rogue's prices are reduced by 515 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: depending on the model that you get six hundred and 516 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: forty dollars to nineteen hundred and thirty dollars. 517 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 2: That's a significant discount. 518 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: And the Pathfinders prices they have been reduced by six 519 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy dollars to eleven hundred and seventy dollars. 520 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: Remember Nissan trying to survive as a company right now. 521 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: After Honda decided not to merge with Nissan, they broke up. 522 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: It's one of the saddest, you know, romantic stories of 523 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: the year that you know, the love did not win out, 524 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: but you guys, as as customers, I mean, love the Rogue, 525 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: you love the Pathfinder, and now you can get. 526 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 2: It for less. 527 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 1: This is the kind of thing that the companies do if 528 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: they want to survive, sometimes have to sell something that's 529 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,360 Speaker 1: popular at a discount and hope to keep your customer 530 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: loyalty a right. President Trump is working to reverse the 531 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: additional Now these are additional restrictions on emissions that the 532 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: Biden administration put into place on the American auto industry. 533 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: He's not being shy about why listen, We're. 534 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 7: Going to go back probably to a twenty twenty standard, 535 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 7: So we have twenty twenty standard and that's just a 536 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 7: few years ago. Oh, they're putting them that make it 537 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 7: so difficult all over the world to make it. It 538 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 7: doesn't mean a damn bit of difference for the environment, 539 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 7: doesn't matter. They make it impossible for people to build cores. 540 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 7: So we're going to be doing much different. Twenty twenty 541 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 7: is a strong standard. 542 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 2: Okay, So he's going back to the twenty twenty standards, 543 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 2: which we're pretty strong. That's what President Trump's talking about. 544 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 1: Of course, all the environmentalists and partisan political types are 545 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: going to be saying, how can President Trump say emissions 546 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 1: doesn't have a difference on the environment. Well, again, these 547 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: are very new restrictions that came in during the Biden administration, 548 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: and there's absolutely no respected scientists who will say that 549 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: we know yet whether those new restrictions on emissions have 550 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: had any positive effect at all. 551 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 2: But again, try to. 552 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: Connect this story to what I was talking about earlier 553 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: with Ford and GM's sales results for the first quarter 554 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: of the year. If you put strict mission standards on 555 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: your auto industry in America, an auto industry that I 556 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: said before and all the data shows for forty years 557 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: really relies on trucks and SUVs, gas power trucks and SUVs, 558 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: and you restrict the emissions, you are basically killing the 559 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: American auto industry. 560 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 2: That's what's going on again. 561 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: Maybe one day Ford and GM will make products other 562 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: than trucks and SUVs that the whole world wants to buy, 563 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,719 Speaker 1: including Americans, but they haven't done that, and they've had 564 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: a lot of chances to do it. If you restrict 565 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: emissions to newer and higher levels year after year, you're 566 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: going to kill that industry because they can't survive without 567 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: those gas powered, bigger vehicles. 568 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: All right, let's get back to price cuts. I love 569 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 2: talking about price cuts. 570 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: The twenty twenty four BMWXMSUV is a really hot selling 571 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: item here in America. 572 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 2: Actually it's not. No one's buying it, and so here 573 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 2: come the price cuts. 574 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: Dealers are now offering up to twenty two thousand, five 575 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: hundred dollars off on the twenty twenty four XM. Okay, Now, 576 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: that may not seem like it's a lot when the 577 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: XM lists for one hundred and sixty thousand dollars retail, 578 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: but you know it is a lot more than even 579 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: ten percent off, So. 580 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 2: That's a big deal. 581 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: Now, the twenty twenty five BMW is also available with 582 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: a twelve thousand dollars five twelve thousand, five hundred dollars discount, 583 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: so they're slashing prices on that as well. This is 584 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: an suv that BMW is not having a good time 585 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: selling again because people love American made SUVs and trucks 586 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: and things like that. But at least you can get 587 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: your your your big discount. I mean, twenty two thousand 588 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: and five off a car. I don't care how much 589 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: it sells forth. That's a lot, all right. Tariff wars, 590 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: recession fears, and stubborn inflation, no wonder. Gold has been 591 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: routinely hitting all time highs lately and volatile markets like 592 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: right now.

Here are some of this morning's 615 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: top stories. A split decision in Wisconsin, Liberal judge Susan 616 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: Crawford wins the open state Supreme Court seat, but voters 617 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: by an even larger margin approve voter ID laws. 618 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 2: How did that happen? I'll explain. 619 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, in Florida, the two special elections for vacated seats 620 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: in the US House of representatives stay with the GOP, 621 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: so that gives the Republicans now a seven seat majority 622 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: in the House, and boy does every vote count. A 623 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: Speaker Mike Johnson knows that all too well. This morning, 624 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: Attorney General Pam Bondi says the Justice Department will seek 625 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, who's accused of gunning 626 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: down the CEO of United Healthcare in New York and December. 627 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: But will going for the death penalty make it harder 628 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: to convict the man who's already become a folk hero 629 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: to the far left. 630 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,239 Speaker 2: And the President calls it Liberation Day. 631 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: I guess liberation day from being a one sided tariff 632 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: regime in the world. The White House calls it liberation 633 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 1: because tariffs on those countries are now in effect. 634 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 2: Perhaps more importantly, we. 635 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: Will find out whether Wall Streek likes this or doesn't, 636 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: because they've been going back and forth on it for days. 637 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition continues. Now welcome to this Wednesday. 638 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: Here an American Sunrise Early Edition again especial. Welcome to 639 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: those of you following and commenting on Getter and Rumble. 640 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: This is an interactive news program and that's the only 641 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: way to go these days. I'm not expecting you to 642 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: just sit there like a trained seal, and that's why 643 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: we also bring in some great guests. So joining me 644 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: right now is Virginia Allen. She is a senior producer 645 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: at The Daily Signal and Virginia, let's talk about these 646 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: Wisconsin and Florida races. But I want to float this 647 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: idea by you because this is exactly what I think 648 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: happened in Wisconsin, where a liberal judge won the election 649 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: pretty clearly, Susan Crawford for that vacated seat, but at 650 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: the same time, by an even larger majority, the voters 651 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin supported a voter idea law. And I have 652 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: one word that I think explains those that split decision, 653 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: and that is abortion. I think that was really the reason. 654 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: But I'd love to get your take on at Virginia. 655 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 6: No, I think you're absolutely right. I think that there 656 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 6: are core principles and policies that all Americans, whether Democrat 657 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 6: or Republican, can rally around. And one of those, in 658 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 6: some ways, like an issue like abortion that kind of 659 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 6: goes across party line sometimes, is certainly that issue of 660 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 6: voter id right, it's common sense that people vote with 661 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 6: a voter ID, and this is something that obviously in 662 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 6: Wisconsin that voters stand behind. And I also think it's 663 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:53,239 Speaker 6: indicative of a little bit of the political moment that 664 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 6: we find ourselves in. We saw this in the twenty 665 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 6: twenty four election, that a vote for President Trump or 666 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 6: a vote for a common sense policy like voter ID, 667 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 6: you know, that vote doesn't always translate down the ticket 668 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 6: to voting completely Republican. I spent some time in North 669 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 6: Carolina during the twenty twenty four presidential election at pulling sites, 670 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 6: and I spoke with a number of voters who said, oh, yeah, 671 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 6: I mainly voted all Democrat. And I was like, oh, 672 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 6: so you voted for Kamala Harris and said, oh, no't know. 673 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 6: I voted for Trump, but everyone else I voted Democrat. 674 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 6: I was like, this is really really fascinating that there's 675 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 6: a little bit of a split and a difference. And 676 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,879 Speaker 6: so I actually think that Susan Crawford's victory in Wisconsin 677 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 6: at the Wisconsin Supreme Court, I actually think this is 678 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 6: a really good learning opportunity and moment for the GOP 679 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 6: that they are able to kind of be reminded we're 680 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 6: still eighteen months out from midterm elections. They have plenty 681 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 6: of time, but they need to recognize just because Wisconsin 682 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 6: went for Trump now only by about one percent, but 683 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 6: still Wisconsin did go for Trump in the twenty twenty 684 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 6: four election. But just because Trump want it, well, that 685 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 6: doesn't necessarily mean that future GOP candidates are going to 686 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 6: have great success in Wisconsin. So the GOP they need 687 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 6: to assess, Okay, how can we work on translating some 688 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 6: of those Trump voters into GOP voters. What's the appeal 689 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 6: that individuals see in an individual like Trump that maybe 690 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 6: they're not seeing in the rest of the Republican Party. 691 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,879 Speaker 6: So there needs to be a bit of a deep 692 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 6: dive if Republicans want to have success come come the 693 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 6: midterm elections, if they want to have success in Wisconsin, 694 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 6: they need to be looking at what happened here? What 695 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 6: do we do differently next time? 696 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:45,919 Speaker 5: Yeah? 697 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: Well, and my advice would be to not make it 698 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 1: so much about President Trump. 699 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think that. I mean, the mainstream media. 700 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 1: And even a lot of the conservative media is going 701 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: to try to pretend that this was some kind of 702 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: a hedge against Trump personally. I really don't think that 703 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: that was what was going on. 704 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 2: I think that if you have. 705 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 1: A state that isn't a deep red state and there 706 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 1: is a woman running for a judicial position who they 707 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: believe will be more moderate an abortion, it's going to 708 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 1: be very, very hard to win. So either the Republicans 709 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: need to come up with a different message on abortion. 710 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: I don't think they should capitulate completely. That's not going 711 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: to work either. They will lose to many of their supporters. 712 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: But maybe they need to go to the Chris Christy 713 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 1: Bobby Jindall route, which was started actually ten years ago, 714 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,760 Speaker 1: where they push for putting all contraception over the counter 715 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: as a way to try to make it as some 716 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: kind of compromise here to talk about how it isn't 717 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: just men telling them what to do. But this is 718 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: a very difficult issue for the Republicans and they still 719 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: haven't figured it out. And the Democrats, of course may 720 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,280 Speaker 1: run out of time on using that as a magic bullet, 721 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: but right now in some races, it is a magic 722 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: bullet for them and their Republicans need to realize that. 723 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about another case. Unfortunately, the segue 724 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: is bullets, and I don't mean to do that. 725 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to. 726 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: Be crass, but Virginia, the Attorney General, Pam Bondi, has 727 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: decided that the shooter in the murder of United Healthcare 728 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,280 Speaker 1: CEO Brian Thompson Luigi Manngio. 729 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 2: And again, I'm not convicting him here. 730 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 1: When he does go to trial, there will be no 731 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,479 Speaker 1: argument that someone else was the shooter. So don't don't 732 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: call me and say I just convicted him and that 733 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: he can sue me now. But they've decided to go 734 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 1: over the death penalty in this case. And you know, 735 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: again there's some pros and cons here. I think it 736 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 1: might make it harder in some ways to convict him, 737 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,399 Speaker 1: but at the same time, it may it may send 738 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: a message for other criminals around the country that this 739 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 1: is a very serious justice department. And while they may 740 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 1: not be able to get the death penalty in this case, 741 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: they're going to get it in some other states, even 742 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 1: though again it's a federal case, but it's going to 743 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: be jurors in New York going to be picked. 744 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 2: I'd love to get your take on this. 745 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,400 Speaker 1: Do you think that they're taking too much of a 746 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 1: risk here by saying even before the trial starts that 747 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: they're going for the death penalty. 748 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 6: You know, it certainly is a bold move, but I 749 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 6: think it's very intentionally a bold move because it is 750 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 6: about the messaging. You're absolutely right. I think the Trump administration, 751 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 6: certainly Attorney General Pam Bondi, wants there to be a 752 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 6: very clear message to all criminals that if you are 753 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 6: going to essentially use an act of terror to inflict violence, 754 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 6: to take another life just because you don't like their 755 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 6: policy stance, there will be absolutely no tolerance of that 756 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 6: in the United States. And we've seen this so far 757 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 6: throughout the drum of industry. I mean, you look at 758 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 6: any issue. Pambondi has also come out with your clear 759 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 6: messaging on the attacks on the Tesla trucks, saying we're 760 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 6: not putting up with this. These are acts of domestic terrorism. 761 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,720 Speaker 6: You look at the aggressive push to deport criminal legual islands. 762 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,800 Speaker 6: I mean, all of this is very targeted of saying 763 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 6: in America, we're not going to tolerate senseless violence crime. 764 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:49,280 Speaker 6: It ends with this administration, and this really clear message 765 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 6: to anyone who would be thinking, especially in light of 766 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 6: the fact that Lugimi Angeoni has received a lot of 767 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 6: in some ways free positive press from on the left 768 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 6: across social media and has sort of been hailed this 769 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 6: weird pseudo hero for what he did. The message has 770 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 6: to be so clear from the Trump administration for anyone 771 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,320 Speaker 6: anyone out there who would think of doing something similar, 772 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 6: you could potentially face the death penalty. So I really 773 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,240 Speaker 6: think that this does all come down to that messaging side. 774 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:26,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's a trap here, I think as well. 775 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 1: And now by saying that they're going out to the 776 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 1: death penalty, some of those people who are maybe a 777 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: little bit more shy about supporting somebody like Mangione because 778 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: of the crassness and the brutality of that crime might 779 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: actually come out off the sidelines, and I'm talking about 780 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 1: elected Democrats might actually come out and support him in 781 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: some way, And that'll be yet another crazy hill for 782 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: them to die on. 783 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 2: They're dying on hills for trendy arragua. 784 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: Are they going to actually throw someone who not only 785 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 1: committed a brutal active of murder on the streets of 786 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: sidewalks I should say of New York, but someone who's 787 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,720 Speaker 1: clearly not all there. I mean, I don't think he's insane, 788 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 1: because the sane means he didn't know what he was doing, 789 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: but he's clearly not mentally healthy, and that's who they 790 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 1: want to create as a hero. I think that the 791 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: administration would love to see some elected Democrats come out 792 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:14,800 Speaker 1: and support him as if he's a hero as well, 793 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: and some of them might actually fall for that trap 794 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 1: now that they're going for the death benalty. All right, Virginia, 795 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 1: it's April seconds, so you know what that means. President 796 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: Trump says it's going to be Liberation Day. I love 797 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 1: that messaging. I don't know if that's going to work, 798 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 1: but it's fun now that we are now imposing tariffs 799 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,959 Speaker 1: on reciprocal tariffs, and you know, listen, Wall Street doesn't 800 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: know what to make of it yet. Mostly they're down 801 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 1: on it, but some days they're up. It goes back 802 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 1: and forth, but they are predicting some of those economic 803 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 1: experts are predicting real pain for consumers right away. I'd 804 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 1: love to get your take on whether you think how's 805 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: that going to go over If we go to the 806 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: supermarket and shop at maybe at apartment store or online 807 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 1: for the next few weeks and we see no change 808 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: in prices, will there be a change in tune over 809 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 1: that or will they just move on to another story. 810 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 6: I think there's no change in prices. There probably won't 811 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 6: be much of a change in tune. If there's a 812 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 6: skyrocketing of prices, you're going to hear from Americans, and 813 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 6: you're going to hear very loud and clear. But I 814 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 6: think the factor and what the Trump administration needs to 815 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 6: make sure they communicate very well, which I think they 816 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 6: will because they're very, very good at messaging, is that 817 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 6: the President is playing a bit of a long game here. 818 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 8: Often what we see with these economic moves, specifically with 819 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 8: imposing additional tariffs, there might be a temporary rise in 820 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:38,359 Speaker 8: prices of some goods, some might fall, but some might rise, but. 821 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 6: There's an adjustment period. Because Trump has been really clear 822 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 6: he wants to bring manufacturing back to the United States. 823 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 6: That doesn't happen overnight. It takes time, and ultimately that 824 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 6: will strengthen the US economy, It will create more jobs, 825 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 6: and will also firm up US national security when we're 826 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 6: not dependent on China for so much of our product. 827 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,839 Speaker 6: So it's a win in the long game for America. 828 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 6: But really that factor is that Trump administration needs to 829 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 6: keep reminding the American people of that Hey, this is 830 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,359 Speaker 6: about years down the road. This is about your kids, 831 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,240 Speaker 6: this is about your grandkids, This is about the future 832 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 6: of America that we are building long term. And then 833 00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 6: there's another factor here that I think Trump wants to 834 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,240 Speaker 6: send a really really clear message to our adversary, specifically 835 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 6: to China, say you're not going to take advantage of 836 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 6: US and our trade policy anymore. And then even sending 837 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 6: messages to Canada and to Mexico to say we need 838 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 6: that full cooperation in securing the border and we have 839 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 6: to work together on that or else these tariffs are 840 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:41,400 Speaker 6: going to continue. 841 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:43,280 Speaker 2: All right, Virginia. 842 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: I don't have time to talk about it, but I 843 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: want everyone to check out your column in the Daily Signal, 844 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,479 Speaker 1: your story in the Daily Signal about how the Trump 845 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 1: administration is hit one hundred thousand deportees very early on. 846 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: So check that out in the Daily Signal. There it is, 847 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: you can check that out. Thank you so much for 848 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: joining us. David Brody is going to be with us 849 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 1: in just a moment. We're going to talk about GOP dysfunction. 850 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 2: Stick with us. 851 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: There's a live shot at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. My daughter's going 852 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,719 Speaker 1: to be moving there pretty soon. I'm really excited. 853 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 2: About it for her. Hey, welcome back to American Sunrise 854 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 2: Early edition. 855 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: As I often say, these days, Democrats offer no democracy 856 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,439 Speaker 1: to their voters. You know, they just shoved the last 857 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: two or three presidential candidates down their throats. But sometimes 858 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,799 Speaker 1: Republicans offer a little too much democracy. And we keep 859 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 1: seeing that in the House of Representatives. By that, I 860 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 1: mean they don't really give a lot of rope. They 861 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 1: don't allow their own leaders to kind of set the 862 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 1: agenda as much as maybe they should. And then they 863 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: can reassess every year or so, as opposed to every 864 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,439 Speaker 1: two weeks. David Rody joins me now, and we saw 865 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: that yesterday. Now they're shutting down all business in the 866 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: House because of this dispute between the Speaker and one 867 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,799 Speaker 1: of the Republican members from Florida and Napaulina Lune. And 868 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: now nothing can get done because you know, when you 869 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: have only a five vote majority, it's up to seven now, 870 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 1: but that those guys won't be seated for a while. 871 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: You know, anything can fall apart like a house of 872 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:10,360 Speaker 1: cards pretty quickly. 873 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,919 Speaker 9: Yeah, Jake, it's a mess, really, and it's a short 874 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,839 Speaker 9: term deal. It'll just blow over and you know, next 875 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 9: week they'll move on. But the point is is that 876 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 9: I'm not quite sure why Speaker Johnson needed to necessarily 877 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 9: do this, though I kind of understand overall what's going on. 878 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 9: I mean, there's there's a lot of contours to this 879 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 9: as it relates to proxy voting. That's what anapoline a 880 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 9: luna want and basically having new parents to be allowed 881 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 9: to vote remotely rather than in Congress, and Mike Johnson 882 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 9: is just fully against that. He doesn't think proxy voting 883 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:46,319 Speaker 9: is a good idea. He thinks it could lead to 884 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 9: proxy voting on X, Y and Z issue maybe for 885 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 9: Democrats next time they're in power. I mean, it goes 886 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,279 Speaker 9: down a very slippery slope. And there's a lot of 887 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 9: folks in Congress that say, well, wait a minute, if 888 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 9: you're going to be in Congress, then get here to vote. 889 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 9: If you want to be home and you need to 890 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,319 Speaker 9: be with your child, that makes sense too, but then 891 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 9: don't be in Congress. So it's kind of an I 892 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 9: don't know, I'm sorry, I'm getting into. 893 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 2: The actual issue rather than the politics of it all. 894 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 9: But the fact, the fact of the matter is that 895 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 9: here's the truth of the matter. Mike Johnson couldn't let 896 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,919 Speaker 9: this Annapolina Luna vote be a standalone vote. 897 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 2: He had to put it. 898 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 9: He had to tuck it inside a rule to try 899 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 9: to get the rule, but basically get that out of 900 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 9: out of contention. He had to stick it inside that 901 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 9: way to give Republicans a dare right. You know, he 902 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 9: thought Republicans would say, let's vote on judges, let's vote 903 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:46,800 Speaker 9: on requiring ID for voting, as opposed to actually getting 904 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 9: Luna's bill approved. 905 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 2: So he gave Republicans a choice. 906 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 9: But there were nine Republicans that said no, no, we're 907 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 9: not going to do this. 908 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 2: So I know it's a. 909 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 9: Little not confusing, but it's just it just doesn't make 910 00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 9: much sense. 911 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 2: It really shouldn't have happened, but it did. Well, you know, 912 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,720 Speaker 2: I will say this though he has heard a speaker. 913 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,720 Speaker 1: Johnson has herded the cats in the House pretty well 914 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:11,280 Speaker 1: and at above expectations so far until what happened yesterday. 915 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: You're right, it probably will blow over, but it should 916 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: remind everybody. I mean, if the Republicans want to take 917 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 1: a victory out of this, then it just should remind them, 918 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,280 Speaker 1: especially also with the Wisconsin court race. Should remind them 919 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,479 Speaker 1: that they have a big hill to climb with the midterms. Again, 920 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,720 Speaker 1: it's a lot more than a year. It's really almost 921 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 1: two years to go. But they've got to be ready 922 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 1: for this because at this point they need to have 923 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 1: a better and a clearer message, and you're going to 924 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 1: get that on American Sunrise the next two hours, coming 925 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: up with David E. 926 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 2: Brodie and the rest of the crew. Thank you so 927 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,400 Speaker 2: much for joining me on this Wednesday. It's been a 928 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 2: wild day. It's Liberation Day in America if you like 929 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 2: it that way. I'm Jake Novak. I'll see again tomorrow.
