Speaker 1: All right, glad you with a slight ground to cover today. Oh,
Speaker 1: Governor Cuomo's in trouble, will get to that. And I
Speaker 1: would imagine lawsuits are pending. And apparently the nursing home
Speaker 1: death issue is ooh, they only reported about half of
Speaker 1: what really happened. That's not gonna end well. So many
Speaker 1: friends are just obsessed of It's kind of like a
Speaker 1: David Goliath battle going on Wall Street. And I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna lie. I'm kind of enjoying the hell because I'm
Speaker 1: not the biggest fan of Wall Street. I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: honest here, I'm kind of enjoying the hell out of it,
Speaker 1: just laughing at it all because it's it's kind of
Speaker 1: fascinating to watch. And I'm you know, if I have
Speaker 1: enough friends in at work in this industry, and they're
Speaker 1: gonna be mad at me for saying all this, but
Speaker 1: and they do great work. They do great things. They
Speaker 1: help people say for their retirement. This isn't my wheelhouse.
Speaker 1: It's not what I do. I'm trying to explain on
Speaker 1: the air before. I've had so many people from the
Speaker 1: earliest days of cryptocurrency and bitcoin try to explain to
Speaker 1: me what it is, and I said, okay, I understand cryptocurrency,
Speaker 1: all right, and I understand you don't pay fees. I
Speaker 1: get that part, and I understand there's a finite amount
Speaker 1: of bitcoin available. My brain can comprehend that. And this
Speaker 1: is where you begin to lose me. And I say, okay,
Speaker 1: we'll explain. You know, how is it that it keeps
Speaker 1: growing and growing and the money's involved? If you got
Speaker 1: a limited finite amount, it's like, okay, there's only x
Speaker 1: number of tons of gold x number of ounces of gold. Okay.
Speaker 1: And then I say, no, it's simple. It's an algorithm.
Speaker 1: I say, okay, I know what an algorithm is technically,
Speaker 1: but I really don't. It's not my wheelhouse either. Well
Speaker 1: you know, it's a math equation. I said, okay, I
Speaker 1: can understand that too. And then I'll say okay, so
Speaker 1: then I understand there's only so much of it. Some
Speaker 1: of it apparently has been lost and we'll never be
Speaker 1: able to mind them back again, which is a fascinating
Speaker 1: sidebar to that. And then I'll say, we'll explain the
Speaker 1: next part of it. How come it keeps? You keep saying, well,
Speaker 1: it'll go down for a period. Then it's gonna go
Speaker 1: up and you're gonna add a couple of zeros to it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, why explain that part to me? Well, because
Speaker 1: there's only so much of it and it's part of
Speaker 1: the algorithm. I'm like, well, why is it growing? Then?
Speaker 1: Why is the demand increasing? Demand? Supply demand, crisscross dictate
Speaker 1: prices it that's simple. I just don't. I don't ultimately
Speaker 1: wrap my mind around the algorithm, the math part, and
Speaker 1: there's never a finite answer, final answer to the math
Speaker 1: equation as well. The math equation keeps going on. I'm like,
Speaker 1: but why why do you explain why if it's a
Speaker 1: finite amount, there should be one settled on price. Maybe
Speaker 1: it's altered or changed on any given day depending on
Speaker 1: what the demand is versus the supply, And it just
Speaker 1: gets interesting. So I've just kind of stayed out of it.
Speaker 1: And I know I have friends that have made a
Speaker 1: lot of money doing it. It's not my thing. I'm
Speaker 1: not the biggest fan in Wall Street. I don't have
Speaker 1: a lot of exposure there, and it's just my own
Speaker 1: personal appetite. I think money is too hard to earn
Speaker 1: and save, and you know, my blue collar roots kick
Speaker 1: in every day and it's like, Okay, ding ding ding
Speaker 1: ding ding doesn't make sense, don't feel like getting involved,
Speaker 1: but watching this is fun. I mean, Wall Street's losing
Speaker 1: its mind. And so a lot of these hedge funds
Speaker 1: do something called they short sell a stock. In other words,
Speaker 1: they're betting that the stock price is going to go down.
Speaker 1: Now you might say that's a horrible thing. Actually my
Speaker 1: understanding is it's necessary for the balance of moneys and
Speaker 1: investments to go on in Wall Street. Okay, so it's
Speaker 1: the shortest stock you have to You don't own the stock.
Speaker 1: You have to borrow the stock. You pay the person
Speaker 1: that owns it. You borrow it, but you gotta pay
Speaker 1: it back. And you're betting the stock price goes down.
Speaker 1: If it goes down, you get paid the difference. And
Speaker 1: there are people making billions and billions of dollars, a
Speaker 1: lot of these big hedge funds making billions of dollars
Speaker 1: doing exactly that. Okay, get that part of it too. Now,
Speaker 1: there are people that are independent, and what they do
Speaker 1: is they they go on these other sites. I guess
Speaker 1: a merrit trade is probably one Reddit as one you
Speaker 1: probably have heard a lot about. And anyway, so you
Speaker 1: have investors not part of these massive, huge, big hedge funds.
Speaker 1: They start chatting it up, and a lot of them
Speaker 1: very cleverly, smartly figured out that a lot of the
Speaker 1: hedge funds were actually shorting stocks that didn't exist. In
Speaker 1: other words, you can't short stocks that aren't in existence.
Speaker 1: So in some cases they've figured out. And the one
Speaker 1: you probably heard the most about was game Stop or
Speaker 1: BlackBerry or you know, there's one other one that they've
Speaker 1: been all all gung ho about. It escapes me at
Speaker 1: the top of the moment. But anyway, so what they
Speaker 1: figured is, yeah, AMC, that's the one. So they figured out, oh,
Speaker 1: hang on a second, they're actually shorting stock at one
Speaker 1: hundred forty percent. In other words, you only have a
Speaker 1: hundred stock, they're shorting one hundred and forty. Well, the
Speaker 1: forty are don't even exist. So they gang together, they
Speaker 1: got together, a bunch of investors independence and they do it.
Speaker 1: It's smart for them if they're good at it. It's
Speaker 1: smart for them because they're not paying every time they
Speaker 1: buy and sell a stock. And a lot of people
Speaker 1: will buy a stock and they're watching it so closely
Speaker 1: it hits their price point. Boom they're selling it that second,
Speaker 1: and if you're good at it, you can actually make
Speaker 1: money at it. It's not my cup of tea. And
Speaker 1: so they figured out these big hedge funds had done
Speaker 1: this companies like Melvin Capital, and that they were hedge
Speaker 1: you know, that they were short stocking the limit. Now
Speaker 1: it's impacting other small companies. Long story short you see
Speaker 1: a stock that was worth five bucks a share recently,
Speaker 1: you know, I think today at one point, Linda correct
Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong, it was at like four hundred
Speaker 1: and eighty bucks. Yeah. Man, it's crazy. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: just it's so for me, it's kind of like David
Speaker 1: and Goliath. And I think there's a lot of resentment
Speaker 1: out there because a lot of the short selling that
Speaker 1: goes on for companies that aren't huge companies but are
Speaker 1: on the stock market on the exchange. This can have
Speaker 1: a negative impact to short selling. You know, if all
Speaker 1: these hedge funds are bett and you're gonna lose, you're
Speaker 1: going down, then it doesn't create the competence of the
Speaker 1: other people that buy into the stock market hoping their
Speaker 1: pick that they're going to actually go up and that
Speaker 1: they'll make money. And where it gets even more interesting
Speaker 1: is that now the government actually did there all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, these hedge funds they never want government regulation,
Speaker 1: these massive hedge funds. You know, they have the freedom
Speaker 1: to talk among themselves and trade tips and ideas and
Speaker 1: a lot of it. In the end, can kind of
Speaker 1: I would use the term in my term Layman's term.
Speaker 1: I'm not accusing anybody, kind of it seems pretty manipulative
Speaker 1: to the market to me. And then the stock prices
Speaker 1: of an innocent small guy gets driven down and that
Speaker 1: hurts their business. And then all of a sudden you
Speaker 1: have independence joining together, sharing information and making a decision
Speaker 1: that they're going to take on these guys. And now
Speaker 1: all of a sudden they want, you know, want to
Speaker 1: cry foul and bring in government regulators because a bunch
Speaker 1: of people that are pissed off at the hedge funds
Speaker 1: finally figured out a way and to get them back.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's pretty fascinating. And this Melvin one, I
Speaker 1: guess when under they got out of that industry. It's
Speaker 1: just interesting to watch. We'll talk Steve. I brought Steve
Speaker 1: Moore on the program today. He's coming on with us
Speaker 1: and he's gonna probably do a much better job explaining
Speaker 1: all of that to you. But it's kind of cool
Speaker 1: to watch and see. It. Just is my only advice
Speaker 1: on investing to any of you out there is money's
Speaker 1: hard to earn, hard to come by. I don't have
Speaker 1: a lot of faith, trust, hope in the market. It's
Speaker 1: not been my big indicator over the years of economic success.
Speaker 1: It certainly can be a big indicator in terms of
Speaker 1: the health of the economy, but there is this exuberance
Speaker 1: factor that can sometimes take over. I will say this,
Speaker 1: and nobody's really talking about there are going to be people,
Speaker 1: including those independents, that are going to get caught here
Speaker 1: and they're gonna lose money. And the money is going
Speaker 1: to be real, and it's going to be significant because
Speaker 1: these prices are going to come back down to normal anyway,
Speaker 1: So we'll get to that now. I find this pretty amazing.
Speaker 1: When liberals start attacking each other, you always got to
Speaker 1: stand back and don't get in a way, don't be
Speaker 1: the referee. Let it go on. And right now that's
Speaker 1: happening because the New York Times editorial board, they write
Speaker 1: this editorial piece criticizing Biden's executive orders now to be
Speaker 1: very straightforward. If you look at the executive orders under Biden,
Speaker 1: this guy has signed what thirty two executive orders in
Speaker 1: his first week. I think we're up to thirty three
Speaker 1: now total. And that number is more than triple the
Speaker 1: number of orders of the previous three presidents Bush, the
Speaker 1: forty three, Obama and Trump combined. It's another words, triple
Speaker 1: what they signed in their first weeks in office combined,
Speaker 1: according to the Federal Register. Now, the other side of
Speaker 1: this is Joe Biden was the one telling us that
Speaker 1: we're a democracy and not a dictatorship, and I gotta
Speaker 1: get the votes. How do I know he said it
Speaker 1: because I have the tape play it. I gotta get
Speaker 1: the votes. I gotta get the votes. That's why, you
Speaker 1: know the one thing, and I have this strange notion
Speaker 1: we are a democracy. Some of my Republican friends and
Speaker 1: some of my Democratic friends even occasionally say, well, if
Speaker 1: you can't get the votes by executive order, you're going
Speaker 1: to do something things that can't do by executive order
Speaker 1: unless you're a dictator. We're a democracy and we need consensus.
Speaker 1: So in the mildest of criticism the New York Times,
Speaker 1: you might want to ease up on the executive actions, Joe,
Speaker 1: and just for saying that they're now facing a backlash
Speaker 1: from the radical left. I mean, they just couldn't have
Speaker 1: been nicer or kinder in all of this. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just maddening. I went back. I actually pulled the headlines,
Speaker 1: you know, from the New York Times this year impeached
Speaker 1: Trump again. Trump is to blame for the Capitol attack
Speaker 1: that's only recently when it first got into office. Donald
Speaker 1: Trump's Mexico tantrum, mister Trump's random insult to diplomacy, a
Speaker 1: troubled president, this is first month in office. The media
Speaker 1: is a satisfying target. Trump's threat to europe security, Trump's
Speaker 1: reckless shame game. I mean, that's been the entire coverage
Speaker 1: of the entire New York Times, every second, minute, hour
Speaker 1: of every day. And the New York Times says, yeah,
Speaker 1: you have tripled the amount of your three predecessors. You said,
Speaker 1: this is a democracy, not a dictatorship, and I need
Speaker 1: to get the votes. And you're not out there getting
Speaker 1: the votes, Joe. And that's a big problem. And on
Speaker 1: top of it all, you want to know, you wanted
Speaker 1: to find what elitism in America is just listen to
Speaker 1: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and watch tens and tens
Speaker 1: of thousands of American families out of work, out of jobs,
Speaker 1: only to be lectured by the private jet flying owning
Speaker 1: John Kerry, we want going to get other jobs in
Speaker 1: the clean energy sector. Well, they're not going to be
Speaker 1: working next week, mister Kerry. And if you really cared
Speaker 1: about carbon footprints, you want to be this climate czar,
Speaker 1: maybe it's time for you to make a show by
Speaker 1: example and dismantle your private jet, not sell it. No,
Speaker 1: if you sell it, somebody else will be polluting the roment.
Speaker 1: They'll be leaving a big carbon footprint. No, no, no.
Speaker 1: If you're a really true blue and sincere tore the cause,
Speaker 1: I think you need to give it up. Also, I'd
Speaker 1: like to see a pledge from all these Cabinet secretaries
Speaker 1: because we the taxpayers. You may not know this, we
Speaker 1: actually put the bill for entire fleets of private jets
Speaker 1: so that all of these cabinet members can fly around
Speaker 1: wherever they need to go, whenever they want to go somewhere.
Speaker 1: Speaker Pelosi flew on a private jet when she's Speaker
Speaker 1: of the House. Remember that little controversy they came up.
Speaker 1: I mean, then you got Pete Buddha Judge, a man
Speaker 1: full of so much of life's experience, lecturing people we
Speaker 1: want you to get other good union jobs. Well, it's
Speaker 1: nice to say, but the guys with the good union
Speaker 1: jobs that got their pink slips, how are they going
Speaker 1: to pay the mortgage, the rent, their car, their truck payment,
Speaker 1: how are they going to fund their healthcare? And what
Speaker 1: are they going to do for their retirement and the
Speaker 1: kids education fund? Because they're not working with your callous statement.
Speaker 1: And the only one that was halfway honest about it, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to sacrifice some jobs was Grant Jennifer Granhall.
Speaker 1: At least she was a little honest about it. But
Speaker 1: they're trying to say, no, we're getting other green new
Speaker 1: jobs to people that got pink slips. They're out of work.
Speaker 1: They're not getting a paycheck anymore, they don't have money
Speaker 1: to pay. You know, the unemployments not gonna cut it.
Speaker 1: It's tiny percentage of their income. But with a callousness
Speaker 1: and a heartlessness I've never seen, and stupidity on top
Speaker 1: of it. Now we're gonna be dependent on the lifeblood
Speaker 1: of the world's economy. Oh, we're gonna make China rich again.
Speaker 1: They hate us. We're gonna make Middle Eastern countries that
Speaker 1: hate US rich again. Hostile regimes like China, Russia or
Speaker 1: ran they're all gonna be getting rich because we have
Speaker 1: artificially reduced the supply, which will increase the price, which
Speaker 1: means it's bad for national security, and it's also bad
Speaker 1: for our gas tanks. And we'll be paying higher prices
Speaker 1: at the pump and higher eating bills. Oh so much
Speaker 1: for caring about we the people. All right, eight hundred
Speaker 1: time for one sean tell free number. I know a
Speaker 1: lot of the you ask what are we gonna do?
Speaker 1: What can we do? What can we do? The single
Speaker 1: best thing you gotta do now is stay engaged most
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you also at the local level, you're
Speaker 1: gonna see attorneys general, like in the case of Texas,
Speaker 1: they stopped the Biden executive order on immigration. They were successful.
Speaker 1: One thing the President Trump did that his predecessor Barack
Speaker 1: Obama did not do, is he filled all these vacancies
Speaker 1: on the court, apparently with very young people, meaning they're
Speaker 1: going to be there for a long time, at least
Speaker 1: assuming they'll be there a long time. And it's also
Speaker 1: going to be the things, for example, election integrity confidence
Speaker 1: for your state. That's a state legislator's role. If Pennsylvania's
Speaker 1: creating laws that violate their own constitution, they need to
Speaker 1: resolve that. If Wisconsin and Michigan don't allow mail and vote,
Speaker 1: they need to resolve the issue before the next election.
Speaker 1: And the time to start talking about it is not
Speaker 1: during the next election. They got to do it now,
Speaker 1: as the Supreme Court Justice Chief Justice said and stinging rebuke.
Speaker 1: Unless we have the courage to face this and change
Speaker 1: this and deal with this, it's just going to keep happening.
Speaker 1: Issues will happen, and Georgia signature verification issues and all
Speaker 1: the things that we had discussed at the time. Now
Speaker 1: is the time to be communicating with them. And also
Speaker 1: I'm telling they're overreaching so far, so fast, and just
Speaker 1: bypassing norms reconciliation to push budgets. We're going to pack
Speaker 1: the courts. We'll have a commission. It's all happening twenty
Speaker 1: five till the top of the hour. Joe Biden's war
Speaker 1: on hard working men and women and jobs in America,
Speaker 1: that's exactly what it is, you know, canceling Keystone XEL pipeline.
Speaker 1: That's eleven thousand jobs, mostly for union workers. Biden ordering
Speaker 1: a sixty days suspension of new drilling permits on US
Speaker 1: lands and water for to allow review for the impact.
Speaker 1: These are real, high paying career jobs. Now, the American
Speaker 1: Petroleum Institute, their estimate is the drilling man will cost
Speaker 1: the US to economy and all said and done, seven
Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars and kill nearly a million jobs by
Speaker 1: the end of the next year. They can't back that up. Okay,
Speaker 1: if one job is lost here, there's tens and tens
Speaker 1: of thousands we know that are going to happen. Surrounding
Speaker 1: businesses will be impacted greatly as well. What needs to
Speaker 1: be done that would be And by the way, John
Speaker 1: Kerry even admitted to taking the US to zero carbon
Speaker 1: admissions tomorrow, you know, rather than twenty fifty wait, wouldn't
Speaker 1: even remotely stop climate change. They get back in the
Speaker 1: Paris Climate Accords. And what happens, Well, China's recognized as
Speaker 1: a developing nation. They're not paying the price we are India,
Speaker 1: same thing. Other quotes still developing nations. You know, excuse me,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe you ought to persuade them to do it
Speaker 1: first before we sign on to something that's stupid. This
Speaker 1: isn't America first anymore. Tell you that Russia does great
Speaker 1: under these new deals, these executive orders. Same with Iran,
Speaker 1: same Middle Eastern countries, many of which hate US. China
Speaker 1: does great in this too. The American taxpayer filling up
Speaker 1: a gas tank, peating your home. You're all going to
Speaker 1: pay more. And we see the Biden administration paused armsels
Speaker 1: to the UAE and Saudi Arabia. What because they made
Speaker 1: a piece alliance with Israel. And we saw what happened
Speaker 1: on day one with the Twitter handle of the Israeli
Speaker 1: ambassador people asking what we can do well. The Texas A. G. Paxton,
Speaker 1: you know, he literally discussed the federal judge's decision to
Speaker 1: order this temporary hold on Biden's one hundred day deportation freeze.
Speaker 1: This is what attorneys general ought to be doing all
Speaker 1: over the country. We brought the lawsuit. We had an
Speaker 1: agreement with Texas and Homeland Security they wouldn't make any
Speaker 1: major shifts in immigration without giving us sufficient notice to adjust.
Speaker 1: Federal law specifically requires deportations take place if people are
Speaker 1: here illegally, So Joe Biden is ignoring the law what's
Speaker 1: been passed by another branch of Congress. That would be unconstitutional.
Speaker 1: You don't take on the role of the legislative branch
Speaker 1: with through executive fiat. And that message needs to be
Speaker 1: sent by other attorneys generals. Group of Red state attorney
Speaker 1: generals have now served notice on the Biden administration on
Speaker 1: these executive orders. Remember President Trump signed just six during
Speaker 1: the same period Obama five, more than three times of
Speaker 1: the prior three presidents. Pretty unbelievable to me, you know.
Speaker 1: And then you look at not only the two trillion
Speaker 1: dollars beginning price tag for this new Green Deal madness.
Speaker 1: We got celebrities Joe Biden loves. They're lobbying for twenty
Speaker 1: four hundred dollars per month, a marshal plan for moms payments,
Speaker 1: now already given two thousand dollars relief for COVID, on
Speaker 1: top of other moneies that have been rightly appropriately necessary,
Speaker 1: needed and already gone out and anyway suggesting, and they
Speaker 1: go on to say that the federal government should be
Speaker 1: paying moms and by the way, hard hard work. No
Speaker 1: one's disagreeing for their unseen, unpaid labor, comparing it to
Speaker 1: the Marshal Plan in nineteen forty eight that gave European
Speaker 1: countries financial help after they were devastated after World War Two. Okay,
Speaker 1: how much is that going to cost? Congressman Castro at
Speaker 1: Texas is urging Biden to allow doctor recipients to get
Speaker 1: healthcare coverage, and who's gonna pay for that? Any illegal
Speaker 1: immigrants are going to get healthcare coverage, who's gonna pay
Speaker 1: for that too? Democrats plan to fight child poverty. That
Speaker 1: I was suggesting monthly cash payment for children. Okay. A
Speaker 1: plan says that drafting a proposal to expand and transform
Speaker 1: the longstanding tax credit per children, normally taken once a
Speaker 1: year at tax time, into a monthly payment two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty bucks a month per child, three hundred bucks
Speaker 1: a month per kid under eight six. Okay, it's like
Speaker 1: an allowance for children. I mean it all sounds great.
Speaker 1: Socialism is great until you run out of other people's money.
Speaker 1: Margaret Thatcher famously warned Democrats are always generous with other
Speaker 1: people's money. And of course, rolling back abortion rules, that's
Speaker 1: standard procedure for liberal Democrats. But solar jobs it's a
Speaker 1: better choice for workers. I don't don't worry you'll be
Speaker 1: out of work, but you're helping the environment grant home
Speaker 1: even suggesting that that's going to happen. I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: you got tens of thousands of jobs destroyed. Our reliance
Speaker 1: on foreign energy now will be going through the roof,
Speaker 1: and that's not good for national security. Gas prices will
Speaker 1: be higher, home heating prices will be higher. What else
Speaker 1: do we see troops forced to sleep in parking garages,
Speaker 1: ramping up tensions in the Middle East? Again unbelievable. Well,
Speaker 1: we're upset. Donald Trump set out a tweet told people
Speaker 1: to peacefully and patriotically let their voices be heard at
Speaker 1: the Capitol and have that. That's our first order of business.
Speaker 1: An The lawsuit filed is challenging Biden's public land leasing
Speaker 1: ban thirty three point five billion lost GDP in the
Speaker 1: first term across eight states that was put together by
Speaker 1: the Western Energy Alliance. These are people that know their industry.
Speaker 1: Governor Insley Washington actually suggesting climate moves costing jobs, Well,
Speaker 1: you don't want to shackle kids to deadweight of jobs
Speaker 1: that won't exist in the future. We're doing you a
Speaker 1: favor by getting rid of your one hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 1: a year career. Hunger is on the rise in America.
Speaker 1: Maybe instead of a predetermined conclusion on impeachment, maybe they
Speaker 1: can focus on that because you have more American people
Speaker 1: lining up for food. I know for a fact in
Speaker 1: my own my own town, I have friends working in
Speaker 1: the food pantry. Try to help them out too. Anyway,
Speaker 1: now you have people that have been again COVID related
Speaker 1: eight hundred nine for one Shawn. Then the you know,
Speaker 1: the Biden's Commerce secretary nominee. Yeah, we're gonna raise taxes.
Speaker 1: This commerce secretary nominee. Guess what, Rhode Island was ranked
Speaker 1: one of the worst states in the country for business.
Speaker 1: In other words, the Biden come secretary nominee ran the
Speaker 1: ran the state ranked worse for commerce. Good grief. Another
Speaker 1: brilliant choice, at least at least the individual involved here
Speaker 1: was Her name is Gina u Ryannamando. I think is
Speaker 1: how you pronounce it anyway? You know her state was
Speaker 1: best and worst states to start a business. Yeah, they're
Speaker 1: forty eighth for the worst state. Wipsie Daisy. It's not
Speaker 1: gonna help commerce, But admitting that middle class are gonna
Speaker 1: have to pay taxes. Yeah, it's a sacrifice. We're all
Speaker 1: gonna be sacrificing now. And Hunter Biden, by the way,
Speaker 1: continues to hold the stake. I saw this in the
Speaker 1: Daily Caller and Chinese private equity firm according to records,
Speaker 1: and despite reports that he was planning to divest, apparently
Speaker 1: that has not happened yet. We have Congresswoman Acacio Cortez
Speaker 1: really losing it on Twitter and on TV, actually claiming
Speaker 1: that House GOP is driven by white supremacist and extremists
Speaker 1: and the party imposes no consequences for racism and insurrection. Listen,
Speaker 1: there are legitimate white supremacist sympathizers that sit at the
Speaker 1: heart and at the core of the Republican Caucus in
Speaker 1: the House of Representatives. And when you see someone like
Speaker 1: the like the House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of the
Speaker 1: Republican Party respond to white supremacist vitriol coming from his
Speaker 1: own members, not with censure like they did with Representative
Speaker 1: Steve King of Iowa, not with you know, being stripped
Speaker 1: of committees, not with any consequence. You have to wonder
Speaker 1: where who actually has that power. But she was ecstatic
Speaker 1: that Joe Biden. It's almost as if we helped shape
Speaker 1: the platform. Acasio Cortez, writing in a tweet, she did
Speaker 1: what have I been saying? She's Speaker of the House,
Speaker 1: Blosie speaker in name only, tweets out to Ted Cruz,
Speaker 1: I'm happy to work with the Republicans on this issue,
Speaker 1: with this common ground, but you almost had me murdered
Speaker 1: three weeks ago, so you can sit this one out.
Speaker 1: Happy to work with almost any other GOP that aren't
Speaker 1: trying to get me killed. In the meantime, if you
Speaker 1: want help, you can resign, Okay. Ted Cruz was calling
Speaker 1: for an audit. That's it. And by the way, the
Speaker 1: person leading up the impeachment predetermined outcome. Impeachment sham. Yeah,
Speaker 1: challenge the twenty sixteen elections. Guy to Raskin, I mean McConnell,
Speaker 1: did warrenschoon. We're of scorched earth Senate. If Democrats bothers
Speaker 1: the Filibus, who knows what they're gonna do. We already
Speaker 1: know what they're planning. We already know DC statehood is
Speaker 1: now on the table, as we told you, also on
Speaker 1: the table packing the US Supreme Court. We're gonna we're
Speaker 1: gonna put together a committee to study it. Okay, it's
Speaker 1: gonna conclude that they should add justice is to the
Speaker 1: US Supreme Court. A power grab there as well, the
Speaker 1: great Davos reset. Yeah, French President Macrone declaring modern capitalism
Speaker 1: could no longer work. Oh, you take COVID out of
Speaker 1: the equation. What was the economy like under Donald J. Trump?
Speaker 1: With energy independence? Record low unemployment for every demographic group
Speaker 1: in the country, Economic growth unprecedented because deregulation, lower taxes,
Speaker 1: manufacturing opportunities that were ripped away in the Biden Obama years.
Speaker 1: When now we're going back to the good old days
Speaker 1: of forcing companies overseas because they're not going to be
Speaker 1: able to get the job done here at a price
Speaker 1: point that would make them competitive. But don't worry, they're
Speaker 1: focused on impeachment. A lot of good that's going to do. Now.
Speaker 1: Onto the coronavirus. Oh look at this story. Yeah, we've
Speaker 1: been talking about this. Remember the words hydroxychloric win make
Speaker 1: liberals heads explode. If any doctor medical professional said, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're beginning anecdotally with seeing signs that it's working and
Speaker 1: there's no danger at all. Doctor Daniel Wallace the risk associated,
Speaker 1: but the recommended dose is nil. This guy's been prescribing
Speaker 1: it for forty years. He's the head of the rheumatoid
Speaker 1: arthritis everything largest practice in the country, Lupus anti malarials. Now,
Speaker 1: a new study in the American Journal for Medicine in
Speaker 1: January found oh early treatment of coronavirus patients with hydroxy
Speaker 1: chloric win lowered the mortality rate for the disease. There's
Speaker 1: only two times, by the way, that the media went
Speaker 1: full full bore, and that was the American Journal of
Speaker 1: Medicine had to admit that their stand was wrong. Now
Speaker 1: they're saying just the opposite. Huge controversy in New York
Speaker 1: headline New York Attorney General is accused Governor Andrew Cuomo
Speaker 1: of undercounting COVID deaths and nursing homes buy up to
Speaker 1: fifty percent. On top of that, my favorite news item
Speaker 1: today is Joe Biden signed an important executive order and
Speaker 1: that is that they have banned the term China virus. Wow. Okay,
Speaker 1: executive order, but I guess we can talk about the
Speaker 1: South African strain that has a lot of people nervous
Speaker 1: that worried that the vaccine may not be applicable, and
Speaker 1: we're getting I think we got up to a third
Speaker 1: or fourth case in America. It's now become a big problem.
Speaker 1: You have different variants, by the way, there is That's
Speaker 1: what viruses do. They mutate. That's why have people studying
Speaker 1: viruses their whole life. Anyway, you see what's happening to
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom. The steam for the recall effort out there
Speaker 1: is growing. Actually talk the Hill reporting talk of peaching.
Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomos picked up apparently steam this morning as the
Speaker 1: Attorney General got to give her credit. New York State
Speaker 1: has issued a scathing report charging that Cuomo covered up
Speaker 1: the true death toll resulting from his decision to force
Speaker 1: nursing homes to accept contagious COVID page first of you saying, well,
Speaker 1: the nursing homes wanted the money. That's why then, of course,
Speaker 1: and ultimately four hundred incarnations of excuses. The worst part
Speaker 1: of that is President Trump. They didn't use seventy five
Speaker 1: percent of the hospital beds at the Javits Center, and
Speaker 1: they barely touched the Navy hospital ship that Trump sent
Speaker 1: and manned and built for all of New York and
Speaker 1: surrounding areas about anyway, They said that they underreported the
Speaker 1: nursing home desk by as much as fifty percent. Wow,
Speaker 1: let me tell you what, how this is going to
Speaker 1: end in a lawsuit? And I would say families that
Speaker 1: lost loved ones and nursing homes in New York, I
Speaker 1: would say, my bet is on them. I think they're
Speaker 1: gonna likely win any legal challenge to that. It'll probably
Speaker 1: be a settlement at some point. Another prediction. What do
Speaker 1: I know though? Anyway? So the President Biden, you know
Speaker 1: out there's on records all these executive orders, and you
Speaker 1: know he's now of course, has gone forward. He's banned
Speaker 1: federal workers from referring to COVID nineteen as the China virus.
Speaker 1: He believes it's insensitive to Asian Americans. We allowed to
Speaker 1: say talk about the South African variant of the virus
Speaker 1: or the European variety of the virus. I guess we
Speaker 1: can't give any location. I guess the German measles will
Speaker 1: change the name of that too. Unbelievable. Talk about incompetence.
Speaker 1: The worst part is is we got the vaccine and
Speaker 1: governors have no clue how to properly organize its distribution,
Speaker 1: prioritize old their people, Hello, not that hard. First responders,
Speaker 1: healthcare workers, frontline works number two people were pre existing
Speaker 1: conditions and underlying health issues and compromised immune systems. There next,
Speaker 1: neighborhoods hit particularly hard. I put them next after that,
Speaker 1: and then people like me that are healthy, we're last.
Speaker 1: That's where I belong. People have been saying Hannity's an
Speaker 1: anti vaxer. I've been telling everybody I'm gonna get it.
Speaker 1: I just I have friends that have gotten it, and
Speaker 1: they say yeah, like they're sick as a dog for
Speaker 1: a day. I just said, uh, our two, Sean, Hannity's show,
Speaker 1: toll free, our number eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean,
Speaker 1: if you want to be a part of this extravaganza
Speaker 1: with a callousness second to none. What has happened now
Speaker 1: and what is happening before our eyes? Sadly, this is
Speaker 1: the dangers of radicalism and socialism, which represents the new
Speaker 1: radical democratic Socialist Party. In other words, everything we told
Speaker 1: you they would do, they are now doing. You know,
Speaker 1: John Kerry doesn't matter that he travels around in his
Speaker 1: private jet. Now John Kerry is going to luxury the
Speaker 1: American people billionaire that he is about the need to
Speaker 1: get rid of these jobs and the oil sect, high
Speaker 1: paying career jobs because of this radical climate change agenda.
Speaker 1: Why does he still own a private jet? Why does
Speaker 1: Joe Biden and the entire government. Why are we paying
Speaker 1: for fleets of jets for all these cabinet heads and
Speaker 1: their staff to travel around the country. I didn't know.
Speaker 1: I bet many of you didn't know that. How many
Speaker 1: of you know about John Kerry's home in Matha's vineyard.
Speaker 1: Then you've got the man with the wealth of experience,
Speaker 1: former mayor of South Bend. He just got a job,
Speaker 1: Peep Buddha judge, Well, we want people to get other
Speaker 1: union jobs. Well, we're interviewing tens of thousands of people,
Speaker 1: and we're talking to all these people that law good
Speaker 1: union jobs, that were paying one hundred grand a year
Speaker 1: with awesome benefits. They're now out of work next week.
Speaker 1: They got their pink slips last week and they're getting
Speaker 1: them this week. They now that they've got mortgages, they
Speaker 1: got to pay rent, they've got to pay and promises
Speaker 1: of some future job in a windmill factory or solar
Speaker 1: panel factory. Not exactly heartwarming for them. These are very
Speaker 1: skill specific jobs. These are real professionals that earn every
Speaker 1: penny to work on rigs and welders and pipe fitters
Speaker 1: and all these hard working men and women, and grand
Speaker 1: Home even admitting, yeah, we're gonna have to give up
Speaker 1: jobs in the name of climate change. I mean, on
Speaker 1: top of that, we're becoming more dependent than ever again.
Speaker 1: We're finally energy independent thanks to Donald Trump. Well, now
Speaker 1: you know, the hostile regimes of Russia and Iran and
Speaker 1: China and Middle Eastern countries that hate us, they'll be
Speaker 1: getting rich again because the price of oil and energy
Speaker 1: will begin to soar. Every American will be impacted there too.
Speaker 1: You'll be paying more for gasoline, more to heat your
Speaker 1: home and your fellow Americans in this job environment, with
Speaker 1: a pandemic going on, in this job environment, we're going
Speaker 1: to legalize eleven million people in this country. We already
Speaker 1: have a fight going on for the few jobs that
Speaker 1: are available. So let's rip away entire careers from people.
Speaker 1: Let's listen to carry Grandholm in Buddha Judge. The President
Speaker 1: of the United States has expressed in every comment he
Speaker 1: has made about climate the need to grow the new
Speaker 1: jobs that pay better, they're to cleaner. What President Biden
Speaker 1: wants to do is make sure those folks have better choices,
Speaker 1: that they have alternatives, that they could be the people
Speaker 1: who go to work to make the solar panels, they
Speaker 1: were making them here at home. That is going to
Speaker 1: be a particular focus of the Build Back Better agenda.
Speaker 1: I'm just curious how a long term band consistent with
Speaker 1: the President's goal of unify our country and putting Americans
Speaker 1: back to work and helping our economies grow. How is
Speaker 1: that goal consistent. I think the president's plan of building
Speaker 1: back Better, which would create more jobs in energy, clean
Speaker 1: energy than the jobs that might be sacrificed. So for
Speaker 1: those workers, the answer is somebody else will get a job.
Speaker 1: The answer is that we are very eager to see
Speaker 1: those workers continue to be employed in good paying union jobs,
Speaker 1: even if they might be different ones. Good paying union jobs,
Speaker 1: even if they're different ones. Well, right now they don't
Speaker 1: have any job because with a stroke of a pen,
Speaker 1: Biden took them away. Jobs will be sacrificed. Granholm actually
Speaker 1: got very close to the truth there. For a second.
Speaker 1: New Gingrich, former Speaker of the House joins us. Now
Speaker 1: mister speaker, I've I've never witnessed anything this profoundly stupid
Speaker 1: as what they're now doing in the name of this,
Speaker 1: you know, climate change hysteria whipped up by the radical
Speaker 1: socialist like Acacio Cortez. Look, I think the arrogance and
Speaker 1: insensitivity of people like John Kerry, who is a billionaire,
Speaker 1: just basically saying, all, well, you're not going to have
Speaker 1: a job, but someday, somewhere down the road, everything will work.
Speaker 1: Outside what's not going to work out not just for
Speaker 1: the workers you're describing, Sean, but remember in places like
Speaker 1: New Mexico, the local school board relies on the oil
Speaker 1: and gas payments to meet their budget. And as somebody
Speaker 1: said in New Mexico yesterday, democrat said in New Mexico yesterday,
Speaker 1: if you cut off oil and gas this month, you're
Speaker 1: going to be cutting off the schools next month. And
Speaker 1: I think that that's what people don't realize. The effect
Speaker 1: to the entire community, not just the immediate jobs, but
Speaker 1: the effect through the entire community will be devastating and
Speaker 1: will in fact create ghost towns out of plays there
Speaker 1: right now are vibrant and profitable and attracting new workers
Speaker 1: and desirable places to live. And I think these folks
Speaker 1: have no clue how many human beings are going to
Speaker 1: hurt with their policies because their views on climate change
Speaker 1: and environmental justice climate concerns are at the heart of
Speaker 1: all of this. So when the choice comes down to
Speaker 1: energy independence, the choice comes down to American high paying
Speaker 1: career jobs, they side with the fringe left because, as
Speaker 1: we also know, this is intricately intertwined with an agenda,
Speaker 1: which is redistribution of wealth and socialism, isn't it? Well,
Speaker 1: it is, And you know, Thomas Wolfe to the great
Speaker 1: series of essays way back in the nineteen seventies in
Speaker 1: which you describe radical chic, And you have all these nice,
Speaker 1: wonderful people at their fabulous places in Cape Cod in Nantucket,
Speaker 1: and they're having wonderful cocktail parties with people serving them
Speaker 1: who were legal immigrants but are now going to have
Speaker 1: a chance to citizenship, and they don't have a clue
Speaker 1: how much damage they're doing to the rust and country,
Speaker 1: because you know, he just pop another champagne and talking
Speaker 1: wonderful terms about this great future you're creating. But it's
Speaker 1: going to be a nightmare for normal, everyday Americans. The
Speaker 1: question I'm getting asked by more people every single day,
Speaker 1: callers to this radio show, people I run into every day,
Speaker 1: is Okay, what what what can we do to stop this? Now?
Speaker 1: My answer is usually start at the local level, because
Speaker 1: you can have state attorney attorneys general. They can go
Speaker 1: out there and they can challenge a lot of these
Speaker 1: executive orders of Biden. I know. I love how the
Speaker 1: New York Times very politely said, Okay, Joe, please not
Speaker 1: so many executive orders. Just slowed down a little bit
Speaker 1: because he's done more in a week than all three
Speaker 1: prior presidents combined. Something he said that he didn't have
Speaker 1: the authority to do, which is interesting. But people are
Speaker 1: asking what can they do? And I'm also same work
Speaker 1: with your state legislators now. If you have issues in
Speaker 1: terms of the integrity and competence in your state's voting system,
Speaker 1: now's the time to fix it, not two years from now. Look,
Speaker 1: I think this is a little bit like the emergence
Speaker 1: of the Tea party system in response to Obama in
Speaker 1: two thousand and nine. In two ten, which led to
Speaker 1: the largest Republican pickup in modern times. We gained sixty
Speaker 1: three seats in two and ten. I would urge everybody
Speaker 1: who wants to change things organize. If you're in a
Speaker 1: Democratic congressional district, start right now organizing a campaign to
Speaker 1: beat the incumbent, because if we could scare fifty or
Speaker 1: sixty of the Democratic incumbents into fearing for their reelection,
Speaker 1: you would certainly find it impossible to pass any left
Speaker 1: wing legislation because they were just closed down. I would
Speaker 1: say to Pelosi and Schumer and Biden, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to defeat myself just for some slogan. And I think
Speaker 1: it's very important the grassroots activists recreate the kind of
Speaker 1: energy and the kind of enthusiasm that we had so
Speaker 1: powerfully in two thousand and nine and two and ten.
Speaker 1: If if we don't pay attention, if state look, I
Speaker 1: think attorney general we saw in Texas they have now
Speaker 1: already successfully blocked one of Biden's executive orders on immigration.
Speaker 1: So I think that that certainly is a strategy. I
Speaker 1: think there'll be a lot of lawsuits coming out of
Speaker 1: these these actions, which Biden himself said he didn't have
Speaker 1: the authority to do. Now they're talking about using reconciliation
Speaker 1: to get the budget passed. Now they have a committee
Speaker 1: to look into court packing. Now they're moving forward with
Speaker 1: DC statehood. I mean there's a there's a lot of
Speaker 1: battles and a lot of changes. But this is what
Speaker 1: you and I both were trying to tell people what happened,
Speaker 1: if in fact, has ever happened. Look, and I think
Speaker 1: the House and Senate Republicans ought to be much more aggressive. So,
Speaker 1: for example, somebody ought to put in a bill right
Speaker 1: now to repudiate all of this moratorium on gas and
Speaker 1: oil and then challenge people will like, for example, the
Speaker 1: New Mexico Democratic delegation. I mean, New Mexico's life blood
Speaker 1: is being strangled by the Biden administration. So let's put
Speaker 1: the Democrats on notice in all of these various places,
Speaker 1: and I think you would find, all of a sudden
Speaker 1: there'll be a lot of folks who face really difficult challenges.
Speaker 1: You're going to see this play out in the center racist.
Speaker 1: We now have an open center seat in Ohio. East Gner.
Speaker 1: Ohio has become enormously successful because of natural gas, and
Speaker 1: here's Biden coming along crippling that entire economy, and that
Speaker 1: will become a major issue in the center race. And
Speaker 1: this is not a risk free proposition. On their part.
Speaker 1: The more radical they are, the bigger the disaster will
Speaker 1: be for them, And it may start in Virginia this year.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm here looking at new candidates, new blood,
Speaker 1: new energy in the Virginia Republican Party in a way
Speaker 1: that could show up as early as this November. I
Speaker 1: don't think in the last election, I don't think people
Speaker 1: are paying attention at Gillespie got a lot closer than
Speaker 1: people thought he would. I'm not sure knowing that, you know,
Speaker 1: the swamp has moved into northern Virginia. I don't know
Speaker 1: how easy it is for any Republican ever win that state,
Speaker 1: but it'll certainly be worth contesting. And I think also
Speaker 1: we're now learning that the Democratic Party has really become
Speaker 1: the party of radicalism, socialism, catering to the elites in
Speaker 1: New York and La San Francisco and DC. And this
Speaker 1: is where I think the Republican Party has an opportunity,
Speaker 1: and that is to become the party of hard working
Speaker 1: men and women and champion the cause to protect the
Speaker 1: American worker, well in the northern Virginia, to become the
Speaker 1: party that says, let's open the schools. I mean that
Speaker 1: the teachers unions everywhere in this country right now are
Speaker 1: clearly putting power ahead of children. And there's the biggest
Speaker 1: opportunity Republicans have had to seize the education issue. And
Speaker 1: I remember also the places like northern Virginia. There are
Speaker 1: a lot of small businesses that are being crushed by
Speaker 1: the stupidity with which the government of Virginia has been
Speaker 1: managing the shutdown. So I think that we're entering a
Speaker 1: different world than the one we were in, and it's
Speaker 1: going to be a world where getting kids educated, creating jobs,
Speaker 1: making sure the street is safe. Remember you had the
Speaker 1: largest increase in murderers and major cities last year in
Speaker 1: American history. Now that's the sort of thing that you
Speaker 1: defund the police, you have contempt for the police, you
Speaker 1: tolerate Antifa, and all of a sudden you have a
Speaker 1: country that is really dangerous. I know, on your show
Speaker 1: the other night, you showed that video of the person
Speaker 1: getting beaten up at eleven o'clock in the morning in
Speaker 1: downtown New York in a way which frankly I was horrifying.
Speaker 1: It was awful. I'm dying to get your thoughts. You
Speaker 1: got this David and Goliath battle going on on Wall
Speaker 1: Street where you have day traders, people that bypass the
Speaker 1: big hedge funds and they do their own trading, and
Speaker 1: they're not paying Often when you buy and sell stocks,
Speaker 1: you have to pay a commission, but if you go
Speaker 1: to these different websites, you don't have to do that.
Speaker 1: But anyway, they actually figured out that these companies, these
Speaker 1: hedge funds, these these goliaths, if you will, were sort
Speaker 1: of the short stock strategies or shorting of stock strategies
Speaker 1: that they've used was going way too far. And they
Speaker 1: figured out that a lot of the stock was phantom stock,
Speaker 1: I mean, which was pretty bizarre. In other words, they're
Speaker 1: shorting stocks that are don't even exist. If it's one
Speaker 1: hundred percent of stocks that you can short, okay, you
Speaker 1: can't short one hundred and forty percent of stocks. And
Speaker 1: I'm watching this all go on, and we all see
Speaker 1: that these independent investors grouped together on Reddit and other places,
Speaker 1: and you see the stock rise of game Stop and
Speaker 1: some of these other BlackBerry and a few other companies
Speaker 1: soaring through the roof. And then you got a company
Speaker 1: like Melvin Capital cratering their hedge fund and having to
Speaker 1: be been forced to exit the short bet against game
Speaker 1: Shop and a big win for the little guy. Yeah, look,
Speaker 1: I am I think we're to point in this country's
Speaker 1: history where when in doubt, be for the little guy. Well,
Speaker 1: we have too many billionaires who are totally out of
Speaker 1: touch with the world. We have too many billionaires who
Speaker 1: think that their financial success means they can dictate politics
Speaker 1: to the rest of us. And we have too many
Speaker 1: billionaires who are willing to use their muscle in order
Speaker 1: to reshape the country based on their particular psychology or
Speaker 1: their particular ideology. So I've always believed the heart of
Speaker 1: America is the average individual American. And if enough individuals
Speaker 1: can band together to beat the big boys, I am
Speaker 1: all for it. We'll get New king Ridge's take on
Speaker 1: impeachment on the other side. Eight hundred nine four one
Speaker 1: sean is our number if you want to be a
Speaker 1: part of the program. All right, as we continue, former
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House, New king Ridge. All right, so
Speaker 1: one week from Monday that we begin the latest shift show.
Speaker 1: We already know the outcome. So it's going to be
Speaker 1: like a Broadway theater, and that is that Donald Trump
Speaker 1: will be acquitted rightly. So, but then you got some
Speaker 1: Republicans saying, well, maybe we should do censure. How about
Speaker 1: how about if you're going to do this to Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: let's pull out the tapes of Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi,
Speaker 1: Maxine Waters. I'm going to take Trump out tonight, Joe
Speaker 1: Biden included, and apply the same standards to them, and
Speaker 1: then we'll censor everybody. Look, I wish some of the
Speaker 1: guts here and tougher senators on our side would would
Speaker 1: pick up on your idea, pull together every democract quote
Speaker 1: that is clearly an incitement to violence and offer an
Speaker 1: amendment on the Senate floor. Do they want to add
Speaker 1: these to the to the censure motion and the right
Speaker 1: you want to send your Nancy Pelosi and you want
Speaker 1: to send your man added exactly and include it all.
Speaker 1: Let's let's go down the list. If we're gonna apply
Speaker 1: this standard to this person, let's apply it to that person.
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer on the on the steps of the Supreme Court,
Speaker 1: threatening Corsage and Kavanaugh, you won't know where to hit you, Okay,
Speaker 1: all right? Glad you with us twenty five to the
Speaker 1: top of the hour, eight hundred and nine four one sewn.
Speaker 1: You want to be a part of the program. Everybody
Speaker 1: I know is fascinated by what has been happening on
Speaker 1: Wall Street. And you know, for example, stocks like a
Speaker 1: game Stop stock and BlackBerry stock and I'm what is
Speaker 1: it AMC stock? All these different companies there are five
Speaker 1: dollars a share and then they're explode. I think game
Speaker 1: Stop got up to like four hundred and eighty dollars
Speaker 1: a share. Now it's among it. They're among a handful
Speaker 1: of previously well unloved companies. Maybe you can put it
Speaker 1: that way, as the New York Post put it today,
Speaker 1: prices are fueled. Now you've got these big hedge funds,
Speaker 1: and the big hedge funds they charge for every trade,
Speaker 1: if you buy or your sell. There's there's commissions associated
Speaker 1: with those trades. But there are other places where people trade.
Speaker 1: Reddit would be one of them. And so what they
Speaker 1: have figured out there's a process on Wall Street and
Speaker 1: I'll let Steve Moore explain it more detail and more
Speaker 1: articularly than I can. Where it's part of the process
Speaker 1: on Wall Street with the shortest stock, and that is
Speaker 1: that they're going to predict and bet that the stock
Speaker 1: is going to go to a lower price anyway long
Speaker 1: story short. To do that, you actually borrow somebody's real
Speaker 1: stock and they get a piece of the action so
Speaker 1: that you can then short it and then at some point,
Speaker 1: if in fact it goes down, you get the difference
Speaker 1: in the price, and in other words, you're betting on
Speaker 1: it going down. Big big practice on Wall Street, especially
Speaker 1: used by the hedge funds. Anyway, So these independent small
Speaker 1: guys got hip to what has been going on and
Speaker 1: the millions and millions of dollars being made by these
Speaker 1: big hedge funds billions actually, and they've figured out that
Speaker 1: they were actually shorting stocks that weren't even like phantom
Speaker 1: numbers they like. For example, they were shorting well beyond
Speaker 1: one hundred percent of all the stocks that were ever
Speaker 1: even available, in some cases one hundred and forty percent.
Speaker 1: And the idea is is when the call comes for
Speaker 1: these big hedge funds that had shorted the stocks because
Speaker 1: the little guys have banded together and coordinated an attack
Speaker 1: against them, it all backfires and they've got to cover that.
Speaker 1: They've got to cover massive amounts of money that they
Speaker 1: never thought would happen. It's pretty fascinating anyway. My buddy
Speaker 1: Charles payin over at the Fox Business Channel exploded on
Speaker 1: what's going on and the whining that's going on over
Speaker 1: Wall Street. It's just to me, it's pure entertainment. I'm
Speaker 1: not a Wall Street guy. I've said this so many
Speaker 1: times over the years. To me, I think we the
Speaker 1: little guy, the investors, you know what, We're the ones
Speaker 1: that find out last, and when we get in usually
Speaker 1: the ship is sailed and we end up getting screwed
Speaker 1: on both sides. Anyway, here's what Charles Payne said. I've
Speaker 1: got the report in my hands and I sent out
Speaker 1: to my subscribers, and here's the list the shorts. First
Speaker 1: of all, all of this nonsense, all of this noise,
Speaker 1: all of this wanting by Wall Street, it's making me sick.
Speaker 1: One hundred and forty percent of game Stop was short.
Speaker 1: I didn't hear one person on TV complaining about Wall
Speaker 1: Street trying to crush game Stop one hundred and forty
Speaker 1: percent short. I told my subscribers buying the stock and
Speaker 1: they made a fortune. I also told him to buy
Speaker 1: Birds in Space and a Virgin We took profits on
Speaker 1: that today. Fiz, that's up huge, Tangers is up huge. Nil.
Speaker 1: You can't allow Wall Street to short seventy five percent
Speaker 1: of a stock and nobody says anything. Crushed these companies
Speaker 1: into the dirt, and then when the individual investor makes money,
Speaker 1: everyone's up in arms. Oh they're gonna lose their shirt.
Speaker 1: Don't you think people are trading? If they're traded eighty
Speaker 1: billion shares of day, people are ringing a register. I
Speaker 1: have a kid who bought a house he had He
Speaker 1: made fifty thousand dollars and bought a house. So, yes,
Speaker 1: some people are gonna lose this. Some are gonna win.
Speaker 1: But if you want to if they want to change
Speaker 1: the rules of the game now, because the general public
Speaker 1: is making money. After decades of the shorts crushing thousands
Speaker 1: of stocks into the dirt, I watched stocks mean crushed
Speaker 1: completely to zero, and no one ever whispered anything because
Speaker 1: those stocks didn't have Wall Street sponsorship, they were small names.
Speaker 1: Maybe they went public through a reverse takeover, whatever it was.
Speaker 1: The shorts have had their way with the market for decades.
Speaker 1: No one's ever complained about it. So I am thrilled.
Speaker 1: If you were going to try to destroy company by
Speaker 1: shorting one hundred and forty percent of a stock, you
Speaker 1: have to accept the fact that individual investors are playing
Speaker 1: the same game that you're playing, and now you're losing.
Speaker 1: All right. That was our friend Charles Payne and obviously
Speaker 1: very passionate about this. Steve Moore joins US economists, author
Speaker 1: of the bestseller trump Anomics, inside the America First plan
Speaker 1: to revive our economy, And look, he knows a lot
Speaker 1: about this. He calls it a David versus Goliath moment.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to explain it as good as you,
Speaker 1: but maybe I'll let you do it in your terms.
Speaker 1: In ways hopefully all of us can yet. Well, hi, Sean.
Speaker 1: And by the way, I love what Charles had to say,
Speaker 1: my good friend Charles pain and he was right. He
Speaker 1: what a great call he made for his investors in
Speaker 1: buying these stocks. Uh game stop at a very low price.
Speaker 1: And boy, those investors have met a lot of money.
Speaker 1: And I love the story for a couple of reasons.
Speaker 1: One is he is Charles is absolutely right that it
Speaker 1: should be almost criminal that you can you can short
Speaker 1: the stock even more than the stock is out there.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a torpedo right in the middle of
Speaker 1: the ship and it can destroy good company. Sean. And
Speaker 1: you know, I don't have anything against shorting stocks. That's
Speaker 1: how the stock market works. But this is a procedure
Speaker 1: that's used by the big, big, you know, trading companies
Speaker 1: to really destroy good companies. And by the way, then
Speaker 1: the little investors go down. And this is this is
Speaker 1: an example of the little investors banded together through Reddit
Speaker 1: and other groups to buy the stocks, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: that that hurts the short sellers because then you know
Speaker 1: they're betting on the company going bankrupt. Well, we've seen
Speaker 1: a nice appreciation of the stock and you know, one
Speaker 1: of the interesting things and a lot of the investors
Speaker 1: think that game stock could actually become a platform to
Speaker 1: take on some of these big technology companies that you've
Speaker 1: talked about, maybe a platform for internet access and things
Speaker 1: of that nature. So great story, the little guy really
Speaker 1: hammering the big guys, and it's a way to retaliate
Speaker 1: against the disproportionate power to make money in the stock
Speaker 1: market that the big, big funds have. But you know,
Speaker 1: one of the things that is most intriguing and intriguing,
Speaker 1: and I know that that it gets a little more
Speaker 1: complicated here, but the hedge funds, you know, they can
Speaker 1: go and they can discuss and they can pose their
Speaker 1: tips and they can short these stocks and drive the
Speaker 1: prices down and that's profitable for them. And I'm not
Speaker 1: even saying I'm against shorting of stocks. My understanding is
Speaker 1: it's actually a necessary part of the process of all
Speaker 1: the trading that goes on on Wall Street. But the
Speaker 1: manipulation aspect of it is very real. And there's a
Speaker 1: real anger at these hedge funds for the practices they've
Speaker 1: been involved in. But now that it's happening back and
Speaker 1: it's it's boomeranging back on them. Now they're trying to
Speaker 1: claim it's illegal, and they're they're racing to the government
Speaker 1: to step in and stop, you know, the little guys
Speaker 1: that have joined forces together to combat it. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: the irony here. By the way, for someone who doesn't
Speaker 1: know a lot about this, Sean, do you explain it
Speaker 1: very well? Because I agree with everything that you just said.
Speaker 1: Let me repeat this because it's important. You know, we
Speaker 1: have very efficient financial markets the United States. It's an
Speaker 1: important part of our prosperity. And you're exactly right, there's
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with shorting of stock. I do that if
Speaker 1: you're in a fund, probably at times they short of stock,
Speaker 1: which just means they're betting that the stock will go
Speaker 1: down for what's happening here. And I think you used
Speaker 1: the word manipulate, Sean, and that's exactly what this is.
Speaker 1: When you can short of stock beyond the number of shares,
Speaker 1: it's almost like driving the shares to a negative price.
Speaker 1: So in other words, let's say there's a hundred shares
Speaker 1: for a company and the hedge funds are short in
Speaker 1: the stock. Unfortunately, they're short for one hundred and forty
Speaker 1: shares that those are forty phantom shares that are non existent.
Speaker 1: And it's these small groups banding together and tell me
Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, that figured out what they were up
Speaker 1: to and what they were doing, and then they organized
Speaker 1: and they decided to take them on, knowing that there
Speaker 1: was going that the price would be driven up dramatically
Speaker 1: and the short bet would go bad, and that they'd
Speaker 1: end up probably losing billions. And I think the feeling
Speaker 1: among a lot of people. And because I'm laughing at
Speaker 1: the whole thing myself, I'm not participating in any way.
Speaker 1: I'm not smart enough to do it. It's not my wheelhouse.
Speaker 1: But the funny part of it is is you know,
Speaker 1: all of a sudden. Now they're crying about rules, and
Speaker 1: now they want government regulators in. They don't usually want
Speaker 1: government regulators involved in hedge funds, do they exactly? And
Speaker 1: this is a really great story because you're right. What
Speaker 1: happened here is when you when you're shorting over the
Speaker 1: number of shares out there, and then the shares go
Speaker 1: up in price, you take, you know, you get crushed.
Speaker 1: And that's what's happening with a lot of these funds
Speaker 1: that were engaged in this manipulation. And it is kind
Speaker 1: of a rough justice here that that's happening. You know,
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens to the company itself, you know,
Speaker 1: whether it will be able to survive. I think so
Speaker 1: because GameStop is a series of retail stores, and as
Speaker 1: the economy gets better and the vaccine gets out there,
Speaker 1: people will start going back to stores like this, and
Speaker 1: that's our very rational bet. I'm not going to advise
Speaker 1: people one way or the other about how to invest
Speaker 1: in this company, but you you describe it very well.
Speaker 1: These are mostly little modern top investors who saw an
Speaker 1: opportunity here. They were advised by people a Charles Paine,
Speaker 1: and what a great call, And you're right what irony
Speaker 1: that the very companies that have been so opposed to
Speaker 1: regulation now are running to Washington the SEC to try
Speaker 1: to make this procedure illegal. I don't see what. I
Speaker 1: don't see what's illegal about this, Sean Well, I don't either.
Speaker 1: And then bringing in the government to try and silence
Speaker 1: them while they have full communication ability kind of that's
Speaker 1: not exactly doesn't look to me like a level playing field.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is like a Wall Street brawl. That's
Speaker 1: how I'm describing it. With game stock, game stop stock soaring.
Speaker 1: You know, I think at one point, you know, a
Speaker 1: thousand percent of whatever was well that crater, for example,
Speaker 1: the hedge fund called Melvin Capital, they had been shorting
Speaker 1: the stock. Explain to me why, and explain to this
Speaker 1: audience why shorting is part of the EBB and flow
Speaker 1: of how Wall Street works. Because most people think, all right,
Speaker 1: I'm going to go into the market and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: I like this product. I believe in this product. I
Speaker 1: think this product is going to sell well. I think
Speaker 1: the stock price will be steady, and you know, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm willing to risk a little bit of money and
Speaker 1: the hopes it goes up. But you have a whole
Speaker 1: group of people that are betting it goes down. Why
Speaker 1: is that an integral part of the day to day
Speaker 1: business with these hedge funds. Because what it does is
Speaker 1: it it prevents um you know, hopefully prevents big you know,
Speaker 1: balloons that burst because you're having people betting on both
Speaker 1: sides the stacks. So Sean, you may buy Google stock
Speaker 1: you think it's going to go up. I think it's
Speaker 1: going to go down, so I short it. That reduces
Speaker 1: the price of the stock. And that's what one of
Speaker 1: the things that makes our you know, these are kind
Speaker 1: of betting markets and formed betting markets. You you may
Speaker 1: have knowledge about a company and you want to invest it.
Speaker 1: I have some knowledge in it, I think you know, hey,
Speaker 1: I think they are you know, the management isn't good.
Speaker 1: I'm going to short it, and that leads to an
Speaker 1: efficient price for our stock market. And that's one of
Speaker 1: the reasons the US stock market is the best and
Speaker 1: soundest in the world. So again, shorting stocks, we all
Speaker 1: do it. If you're if you're in a mutual fund,
Speaker 1: that mutual fund is probably shorting from socks. But again,
Speaker 1: this I've never even heard of this before, Sean, I've
Speaker 1: never even heard of this before, where you could short
Speaker 1: more shares of stock than there are out there, and
Speaker 1: that means, boy, these companies are Some people have suggested
Speaker 1: to me, you may not be able to do that exactly.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't even know how you do it, really,
Speaker 1: I mean, how do you how do you short shirts?
Speaker 1: You can't? I mean, I mean it is mathematically impossible.
Speaker 1: And if there's not a restriction on it, that needs
Speaker 1: to be one, right, I would say so because I
Speaker 1: think it rips off investors. And when you can do that,
Speaker 1: you can really drive down the shirts. Look these sometimes
Speaker 1: what I don't like about some of the short sellers
Speaker 1: is they are they are sharks. You know, they can
Speaker 1: destroy good companies. And I've seen it happen where a
Speaker 1: good company uh is not able to weather the storm,
Speaker 1: and they keep driving it down and down and down
Speaker 1: and down, and they deal with the financial reporters and
Speaker 1: they spread rumors about a company and all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you know, a small company they're just getting its feet
Speaker 1: on the ground. We've seen I've seen it dozens of
Speaker 1: times shown where the shorts sellers can can drive a
Speaker 1: company out of business. But when you can bind core
Speaker 1: that's the part that I hate. And now do you
Speaker 1: do this kind of trading yourself or no, No, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm a neutral funds. I'm in the market. I think
Speaker 1: everyone should be, you know, although right now I think Sean, look,
Speaker 1: the stock market is very pricey right now, and you're
Speaker 1: I just I don't like the stock market right now.
Speaker 1: The price if you look at the price earning ratios,
Speaker 1: they're very high. And then Sean, as you and I
Speaker 1: have talked about, you look at the agenda of the
Speaker 1: Biden administration and the assault on business and the higher
Speaker 1: taxes and regulations that are coming. That is not a
Speaker 1: good investment for business or for shareholders. I have a
Speaker 1: very minimal investment and exposure to the market. I just
Speaker 1: don't have the appetite for it. And anyway, very enlightening,
Speaker 1: thanks Steve Moore. As always, I'm just enjoying the fight.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a big brawl that has broken out
Speaker 1: basically on Wall Street, and it's fun to watch the
Speaker 1: little guy take on the big guy and they're actually winning.
Speaker 1: Although there's another side of this. They're gonna people are
Speaker 1: gonna get hurt here. I'm just oh, know this, some
Speaker 1: of these little guys are gonna get caught hold in
Speaker 1: the bag. And when, because those stocks are going to
Speaker 1: get back down to earth, It'll happen sooner than later.
Speaker 1: When that happens depends what their buying point was. They
Speaker 1: could lose massive amounts of money and not a game
Speaker 1: I want to play. Money's too hard to earn. Stay
Speaker 1: right here for our final news round up and information overload.
Speaker 1: All right, News round Up, Information Overload Our Sean Hannity Show,
Speaker 1: eight hundred and ninety four one Sean, If you want
Speaker 1: to be a part of the program, Well, there are
Speaker 1: some happy people in the world today, certainly the David
Speaker 1: Englia's story we've been talking about with the little guy
Speaker 1: on Wall Street taking out some of these hedge fun
Speaker 1: guys that are shorting these stocks. This this has been
Speaker 1: like pent up building up anger and resentment. I'm enjoying
Speaker 1: the brawl, and I kind of enjoy and I'm cheering
Speaker 1: on the sideline for the little guys that are winning
Speaker 1: this for a lot of different reasons. I just the
Speaker 1: whole thing makes I just am not fond of any
Speaker 1: of the practices here. And money's too hard to come by.
Speaker 1: Just urge all of you be careful that anybody doing
Speaker 1: business with and then you're gonna have to make your
Speaker 1: own decision as always, you know. But we're living through
Speaker 1: really difficult times. We now have a pandemic that has
Speaker 1: put millions of Americans out of work. D'recnian shutdowns have
Speaker 1: resulted in entire businesses and industries being upended in ways
Speaker 1: we never dreamed of, and shutdowns that were never necessary.
Speaker 1: Had they done things right, and we learned from states
Speaker 1: that did do it right. Huh Florida for example, and
Speaker 1: a lot we can learn from the states that got
Speaker 1: it right. Did they have their hotspots? Yep? Did they
Speaker 1: struggle at times? Yep? Everybody did. The entire world did.
Speaker 1: And the worst pandemic in a hundred years. Now that
Speaker 1: the vaccine is on track thanks to Donald Trump, if
Speaker 1: you can get these governors to get their asking gear
Speaker 1: and get an organized system of dispensing it, that would
Speaker 1: be a great help. Anyway. So now with the stroke
Speaker 1: of a pen, thousands of jobs building the border wall
Speaker 1: are gone. With a stroke of a pen, tens of thousands,
Speaker 1: ultimately be hundreds of thousands of jobs in the energy
Speaker 1: sector will be gone, high paying career jobs. We're talking
Speaker 1: to people hundred thousand dollars a year jobs, very specific
Speaker 1: skill set like welding and pipe fitting and working on
Speaker 1: rigs and drilling. This is it takes literally decades to
Speaker 1: get great at this, and finally people get to the
Speaker 1: point where they're making some real money and one stroke
Speaker 1: of a pen and they're out of work. The only
Speaker 1: one that seems happy are all these The only people
Speaker 1: who seem happy, these liberal democrats, radical environmentalists and socialists.
Speaker 1: Why they're so happy, I don't know. Now they're they're
Speaker 1: talking about as much as ten trillion dollars. AOC says,
Speaker 1: Biden's two trillion dollars climate push sounds just like her
Speaker 1: Green New Deal. Well, it is Bernie Sanders AOC inspired
Speaker 1: Joe Biden radicalism at the expense of working men and
Speaker 1: women in this country, wiping their jobs, their livelihoods, right
Speaker 1: out from underneath them. This can't happen in our country.
Speaker 1: It's happening, but it shouldn't happen. Now, let me play
Speaker 1: this this Biden energy montage, policies on fossil fuels, the
Speaker 1: Green New Deal carbon tax, and the callousness with which
Speaker 1: the likes of Pete Buddha Judge I'm just curious how
Speaker 1: a long term band consistent with the president's goal of
Speaker 1: unifying our country and putting americ Is back to work
Speaker 1: and helping our economies grow. How is that goal consistent?
Speaker 1: I think the president's plan of building back better, which
Speaker 1: would create more jobs in energy, clean energy than the
Speaker 1: jobs that might be sacrificed. I think that that Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: workers have been fed a false narrative surprise right, for
Speaker 1: the last few years. They've been fed the notion that
Speaker 1: somehow dealing with climate is coming at their expense. No,
Speaker 1: it's not. What's happening to them is happening because of
Speaker 1: other market forces already taking place. And what the what
Speaker 1: the finance is, the big banks, the asset managers, private investors,
Speaker 1: venture capital are all discovering is there's a lot of
Speaker 1: money to be made in the creation of these new
Speaker 1: jobs in these sectors. So for those workers, the answer
Speaker 1: is somebody else will get a job. The answer is
Speaker 1: that we are very eager to see those workers continue
Speaker 1: to be employed in good paying union jobs, even if
Speaker 1: they might be different ones. Real expert that he is
Speaker 1: great experience, what depth, Mayor of Southpend no insult to
Speaker 1: southpend Homer Notre Dame, not exactly a lot of experience. Oh,
Speaker 1: we want them to get another union job. Or John
Speaker 1: Kerry flies around the world in his private jet and
Speaker 1: John Kerry, well, we want them to get other green
Speaker 1: New Deal jobs. They Okay, where's the check coming next
Speaker 1: week from? Where's that going to come from. Who's going
Speaker 1: to pay their house payment, rent payment, mortgage payment, car payment,
Speaker 1: truck payment, who's going to pay for the kids college fund?
Speaker 1: Who's gonna put money in their retirement plan? Oh well, oh,
Speaker 1: we'll create better jobs. Or Grand Holmes saying, well night,
Speaker 1: we're going to tax the middle class and yeah, there's
Speaker 1: going to be lost jobs for the good of society. Well,
Speaker 1: the good isn't impacting any of these people anyway. Biden
Speaker 1: didn't exactly run on all of this. To remind you,
Speaker 1: when I think of climate change, I think of their
Speaker 1: answers to it. I think jobs. A key plank of
Speaker 1: our Build Back Better Recovery plan is building a modern,
Speaker 1: resilient climate, infrastructure, and clean energy future that will create
Speaker 1: millions of good, pain union jobs. We should set up
Speaker 1: the rules for what kind of plant coal burning plants.
Speaker 1: No one's going to build another coal burning We've got
Speaker 1: to shut the ones down we have, but no one
Speaker 1: is going to build a new one. We're going to
Speaker 1: make it easier for American consumers to switch to electric
Speaker 1: vehicles as well, not only by building five hundred thousand
Speaker 1: charging stations, but by offering rebates and ascentives to swap
Speaker 1: older fuel efficient vehicles for a new, clean, made in
Speaker 1: American vehicles. Thanking Miss Rice. President, Just to clarify, would
Speaker 1: there be any place for fossil fuels, including coal and
Speaker 1: fracking in a Biden administration, No, we would, We would
Speaker 1: work it out. We would make sure it's eliminated, and
Speaker 1: no more subsidies for either one of those, either any
Speaker 1: fossil The reason I don't know. I'm not opposed the
Speaker 1: Green New Deal. What I did, what I thought beyond
Speaker 1: at least a more detail what the Green New Deal
Speaker 1: is calling for. I've argued against any more oil drilling
Speaker 1: or gas drilling on federal lands that we can and
Speaker 1: uh and and and to stop that. You said, uh,
Speaker 1: stop new oil and gas drilling on federal lands. Yes,
Speaker 1: but kid, I want you to just take a look. Okay,
Speaker 1: you don't have to agree, but I want you to
Speaker 1: look in my eyes. I guarantee, I guarantee we're going
Speaker 1: to a fossil fuel Would you support a carbon tax
Speaker 1: other some other candidates said they would Yeah. No, I
Speaker 1: I what. Nobody's going to build another UH coal fired
Speaker 1: plant in America. No one's going to build another oil
Speaker 1: fired plant in America. They're gonna move to renewable energy.
Speaker 1: And the first thing I will do, I will rejoin
Speaker 1: the Paris Accord. Well, I would transition from the oil industry. Yes,
Speaker 1: I would transition. That is big statements because I would
Speaker 1: stop Why would you do that? Because the oil industry
Speaker 1: pollutes significantly, because it has to be replaced by renewable
Speaker 1: energy over time, over time, And I'd stopped giving to
Speaker 1: the oil industry. I'd stop giving them federal subsidies. You
Speaker 1: won't give federal subsidies to the gas and would shoo
Speaker 1: me to the solar and wind? Why are we giving
Speaker 1: it to oil industry? So American workers, career jobs, high
Speaker 1: paying career jobs, just wiped out with the stroke of
Speaker 1: a pen. And you can just see Vladimir Putin hostile
Speaker 1: actor Russia, hostile regime, Chinese president and she and the
Speaker 1: Chinese government doing backflips. The Iranian same thing they're doing backflips.
Speaker 1: All these Middle Eastern countries will now be reliant on again.
Speaker 1: Now there's going to be We're going to limit the marketplace,
Speaker 1: which has been the great equalizer in terms of price
Speaker 1: with American production. We're out producing all these countries and
Speaker 1: we're energy independent. I will be importing oil again, importing energy,
Speaker 1: the lifeblood of our economy again. Gas pump prices will rise,
Speaker 1: heating prices will rise, jobs will be lost, and these
Speaker 1: other countries will be made rich again. Mark Barano, author
Speaker 1: of the Fraud of the Green New Deal, Joe Bistarti,
Speaker 1: or official weather forecaster here on the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1: WeatherBell dot Com has book The Weaponization of Weather and
Speaker 1: the Phony Climate War. Mark will begin with you. It's
Speaker 1: AOC's dream, and the worker be damned and the American
Speaker 1: taxpayer be damned, because we'll all be paying more. We
Speaker 1: will soon. Thank you very much. What President Biden has
Speaker 1: done so far, he's come in office and he's literally
Speaker 1: killed tens of thousands of job and one estimate was,
Speaker 1: as his policies go forward, one million American jobs gone. Now.
Speaker 1: John Kerry, Pete Budhachads basically say let them make solar.
Speaker 1: Well they're not. They're killing jobs now with the promise
Speaker 1: of some future solar or wind job when years decades
Speaker 1: into the future, and are they going to be qualified
Speaker 1: are they going to be trained for that? Here's the
Speaker 1: bottom line. Three Just under four percent of US energy
Speaker 1: comes from solar and wind combined, eighty plus percent come
Speaker 1: from fossil fuels. In Joe Biden AOC's delusional world, they
Speaker 1: believe we can turn four percent of American energy from
Speaker 1: solar and wind somehow and magically eighty percent plus or
Speaker 1: higher as they go to net zero emissions and try
Speaker 1: to wipe out fossil fuels. This is an experiment that's
Speaker 1: being played out. It's not really an experiment. I mean,
Speaker 1: we know it's failed. We saw President Obama's eight years
Speaker 1: of failure on this. But they're going to be taking
Speaker 1: real jobs now, and it's going to make us less secure.
Speaker 1: The biggest joke was John Kerry claiming it's a national
Speaker 1: security threat, when in reality, it's cold times that are
Speaker 1: the greatest for war, not warm times. And every policy
Speaker 1: they're doing, as it you just said, Son is going
Speaker 1: to make us more dependent on foreign sources of oil
Speaker 1: and on rare earth minerals for solar wind electric cards
Speaker 1: that come from Chinese own minds operated in Africa that
Speaker 1: Amnesty International says as child labor. So this is a lose,
Speaker 1: lose lose for America, Joe. But starting you've taken a
Speaker 1: lot of heat from these environmentalists, the crazies out there,
Speaker 1: because you've been out there with a knowledge of the
Speaker 1: history of weather, you know, frankly second to none, challenging
Speaker 1: the assertions that the world's gonna you know, basically disintegrade
Speaker 1: or melt in twelve years, like Acasso Cortez says, it's
Speaker 1: all over. Yeah, well, you're gonna be blaming me Monday
Speaker 1: when there's twelve eighteen inches of snow in your back yard.
Speaker 1: Too short. So I get blamed from all sides here,
Speaker 1: But I do hold your responsible for that. You got
Speaker 1: to make it go away, and if not, you'll have
Speaker 1: to shovel them for me. Yeah. Well, you know, the
Speaker 1: forward of my book is by this guy named Hannity
Speaker 1: and who convinced me to write the book. And the
Speaker 1: reason I wrote it was that, you know, Marcus, Marcus,
Speaker 1: you know, I can't add to what the Godfather says
Speaker 1: over here In fact, Murano and I are going to
Speaker 1: challenge the Cuomo boys to a little tag team on climate.
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens there. But here's the thing that
Speaker 1: I come from, all right, years and years and years
Speaker 1: of studying maps, using that knowledge, and whenever I hear
Speaker 1: someone tell me the worst ever, and I could pick
Speaker 1: out ten examples that it's not the worst ever. For instance,
Speaker 1: weaponization of drought, tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, global temperatures, global weirding,
Speaker 1: the weaponization of models, the weaponization of academia. All this
Speaker 1: is in the book. Also, something of a lot of
Speaker 1: people don't want to talk about is what it's really about,
Speaker 1: which is, every once in a while, folks man hooks
Speaker 1: it up and gets it right. And the the beginning
Speaker 1: of our declaration of independence was an absolute truth that
Speaker 1: man nailed, that God gave us free will, all right,
Speaker 1: And whenever you get a system like Marxism or socialism
Speaker 1: that seeks to control and take away your free will,
Speaker 1: that's what this is about. Also, you know, I'm glad
Speaker 1: I put these two chapters in on COVID. You know,
Speaker 1: I wrote this bout you know, finally got done in March,
Speaker 1: and I can't believe it actually predicted what you're seeing now,
Speaker 1: this COVID situation. And you know, there's no question this
Speaker 1: is an immediate threat to the good of our society
Speaker 1: and we've seen that. But trying to say, especially when
Speaker 1: man adapts and moves on over a fifty sixty eighty
Speaker 1: hundred year period, that climate change is the equivalent of COVID?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? And the other thing I do
Speaker 1: is I explain how you could get rid of this
Speaker 1: whole problem, because guys, no matter which way you want
Speaker 1: to slice it, there is a fear that's been brought
Speaker 1: about in our education system by a doctrination. I have
Speaker 1: a saying that in an educational system, you're taught to
Speaker 1: question why. When you're indoctrinated, you're taught to question, not
Speaker 1: to question why. It's the exact opposite. We have a
Speaker 1: whole generation of students that just believes this stuff will
Speaker 1: look beyond the situation. They fear c O two And
Speaker 1: it's a very easy way out of this if you
Speaker 1: really fear CO two involves planning a lot more trees
Speaker 1: nuclear power plants. Why are we still slaves to James
Speaker 1: Fonda and the China syndrome? In this country, and of
Speaker 1: course carbon capture and things like that which wouldn't crash
Speaker 1: the American economy, like the Green New Deal, which, by
Speaker 1: the way, guys, and you know it as well as I,
Speaker 1: it's designed to do that. It's designed to chop us
Speaker 1: down to size. The whole thing is becoming obvious. It's
Speaker 1: not about science, not about climate. It's about this whole
Speaker 1: agenda that you're seeing in front of you now. So
Speaker 1: I take that apart in there, you know, and like
Speaker 1: I said, I go right at the heart and show
Speaker 1: you example after example of how bad things were in
Speaker 1: the thirties, forties, fifties, you know, And I'll knowledge a
Speaker 1: second to none. But I'm gonna have to leave it there.
Speaker 1: It's just a it's a primer, and I urge people
Speaker 1: green fraud. Mark Moronod's book and Joe Bastardi, author of
Speaker 1: the Weaponization of Weather and the Phony Climate War, it's
Speaker 1: loved by liberals everywhere. That means it's probably worth reading.
Speaker 1: Jobs are being lost now, it's impacting national security. We
Speaker 1: won't be energy independent anymore. The lifeblood of our economy
Speaker 1: is energy. They don't have the alternatives, and now we're
Speaker 1: putting ourselves at a geopolitical strategic disadvantage in ways that
Speaker 1: you can't even anticipate today, and it's hurting American families.
Speaker 1: We're all going to be paying more for everything. Thank
Speaker 1: you both, quick break right back, all right, twenty five
Speaker 1: till the top of the hour. Many of you being
Speaker 1: very patient today. Thank you so much. Eight hundred and
Speaker 1: nine four one. Sean, you want to be a part
Speaker 1: of the program. All right, let's go to Tammy Is
Speaker 1: in West Virginia. Hey, Tammy, glad you called. Happy New Year,
Speaker 1: and thank you for being with us. Well new year,
Speaker 1: and thank you very much for taking my call. I'll
Speaker 1: keep it short. I would like an answer, a clear
Speaker 1: answer as to why senators are paid for not doing
Speaker 1: their job. Many people, thousands of people have lost their
Speaker 1: jobs at the stroke of a pen from Biden's order.
Speaker 1: They're out of work, So why are these same people
Speaker 1: getting paid and not doing their job. If it had
Speaker 1: been you or me not shut up for work, not
Speaker 1: doing a job properly, we would be fired. So that's
Speaker 1: really all I wanted to say. I'd like to see
Speaker 1: maybe it's listen, Tammy, you're expressing exactly how any decent
Speaker 1: American feels right now, you know, I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: maybe it's just my background and no one my parents background,
Speaker 1: growing up poor as they did, and my mom the
Speaker 1: prison guard, my dad waiting tables on weekends, and I
Speaker 1: working my whole life and restaurants and construction, you know,
Speaker 1: leading up to this, you know, career in radio and
Speaker 1: TV and struggling and you know, running out of money.
Speaker 1: I had two hundred dollars left in the bank and
Speaker 1: what do I do? And how do I pay the rent?
Speaker 1: These people's lives have now been ripped apart, fellow Americans,
Speaker 1: and they're doing it so cavalierly and so callously, and
Speaker 1: it shocks me to my core because all I can
Speaker 1: think about is, oh, my god, how are these people
Speaker 1: going to pay their rent? How they gonna pay their mortgage,
Speaker 1: what's going to happen in the car payment? How are
Speaker 1: they gonna pay their insurance. It's not like they're gonna
Speaker 1: go get a job on a windmill tomorrow, Tammy. I know,
Speaker 1: I know, I totally agree. I'd like to know who
Speaker 1: these senators are, specifically drill down on their names every
Speaker 1: day and how much their wages are, if it really
Speaker 1: is public knowledge, the average person trying to find a job,
Speaker 1: trying to keep that job and work, doesn't have the
Speaker 1: time to go online and search the stuff down. But
Speaker 1: if radio talk shows drill down on who these people are,
Speaker 1: well I can tell you who the people are. The
Speaker 1: people are Grant Home and Buddha, Judge and John Kerry
Speaker 1: and Joe Biden. Now, the pushback has already been coming
Speaker 1: from like the Attorney General of Texas in these other
Speaker 1: states as that relates to the border wall construction jobs
Speaker 1: that are gone. And I am these jobs are not
Speaker 1: going to reappear any time soon, if at all. Entire
Speaker 1: industries are being just wiped out. And for them, it's
Speaker 1: you know, cavalier, it's it's for the good. It's it's
Speaker 1: for green energy, it's for you know, the environment, it's
Speaker 1: for climate change. Well, you know what, And then John
Speaker 1: Kerry flies on his own private jet to his beautiful
Speaker 1: mansion on the water in Nantucket. Save me the lectures,
Speaker 1: you know, live by example. We pay. Do you know,
Speaker 1: I bet you probably don't know, Tammy, I do know.
Speaker 1: Do you know that there is a fleet of private
Speaker 1: jets that you pay for for all of these government
Speaker 1: officials and all of these cabinet officials. Did you know
Speaker 1: that I did? Actually I was a private contract flight
Speaker 1: attendant for a number of years. Oh good for you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: save me the lecture. You know, if John Kerry sold
Speaker 1: his airplane or scrap heaped it. Uh, okay, I might listen,
Speaker 1: but he's not gonna do it. If everyone in Joe's
Speaker 1: cabinet pledge not to use the fleet of private jets
Speaker 1: we the taxpayers pay for, um, you know, when they
Speaker 1: give up the creature comforts we give them um um,
Speaker 1: maybe they'll have just a scintilla of credibility. But even still,
Speaker 1: you don't rip away high paying career jobs with the
Speaker 1: stroke of a pen, as Biden has been doing. Or
Speaker 1: The New York Times says, please Joe, you know, maybe
Speaker 1: go a little easier on on this, you know, dictating uh,
Speaker 1: you know, executive order thing here. Um. In other words,
Speaker 1: by by executive fiat. It's sad, Tammy. Let me tell you,
Speaker 1: these these lives. We're not going to hear from these
Speaker 1: people again. So they have no place to go. They're
Speaker 1: going to try and pick up the pieces and rebuild
Speaker 1: their lives, and they're going to probably take jobs that
Speaker 1: pay twenty thousand dollars a year, you know, just to
Speaker 1: get a rent payment paid. It's terrible, it's awful, and
Speaker 1: it's and it's tens of thousands. Well, we're all on
Speaker 1: the same page and we have to keep fighting back here.
Speaker 1: That's one thing we can do, is so having said that,
Speaker 1: thank you for everything that you do. Thank you, thank
Speaker 1: you every day and just keep on. Okay, thank you, Tammy.
Speaker 1: And I want to help people as much as I can.
Speaker 1: I mean, we had this guy on the show the
Speaker 1: other day. I know, we put it up on our website,
Speaker 1: Hannity dot com if people have any jobs available, help him.
Speaker 1: And he had a layoff about a hundred guys and
Speaker 1: just that work directly under him. Steve, New Mexico your
Speaker 1: next high Hell are you doing that? John? Good afternoon
Speaker 1: to you guys. And I'm gonna thank you for all
Speaker 1: that you csis Here in New Mexico, we are we're
Speaker 1: in a state of crisis in regards. I live in
Speaker 1: the northwest part of New Mexico, Sean and jobs have
Speaker 1: been eliminated. Oil and gas no longer exists here. The
Speaker 1: price of natural gas has gone down, the price of
Speaker 1: oil has fluctuated somewhat. We sit now around fifty three
Speaker 1: dollars on the price, you know. But really, Sean, we
Speaker 1: are suffering, and it's all for the thought that we
Speaker 1: want to go to this new green deal. We want
Speaker 1: to be totally green by the year of twenty fifty, Sean,
Speaker 1: How the world are we going to power vehicles? How
Speaker 1: the world I'm gonna boil them. I'm gonna drove a
Speaker 1: pickup chuck that I need to pull fourteen thousand pounds,
Speaker 1: and you canna tell me I'm gonna put a battle
Speaker 1: on map to run that. You know, we are in
Speaker 1: a state of basically a turmoil where we need to
Speaker 1: stand up and get our voice heard. And like the
Speaker 1: young lady before Tammy that mentioned, is to stand up
Speaker 1: to our legislators, both at the state level and at
Speaker 1: the national level. We've had now a Democrat governor that
Speaker 1: we have in office now and she would like to
Speaker 1: basically remove all oil and gas exploration in state. In
Speaker 1: the Mexico he done, and also we survive off of
Speaker 1: that of Lesa's permits from the federal government. Now Biden
Speaker 1: wants to say we can't do that anymore. We're gonna
Speaker 1: put that on a ninety day Hold bye. Bye. But
Speaker 1: but I'll tell you who is happy, Steve Cassio Cortez.
Speaker 1: You know it says if we help shape the platform,
Speaker 1: here's the reality. Here's a simple truth. Is that Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: John Kerry, Peep Buddha, Judge Grant Home and the last
Speaker 1: and all of these people that just you know, just
Speaker 1: dismiss career jobs paying one hundred grand a year from
Speaker 1: professional welders and pipe fitters and rig workers and oil
Speaker 1: drillers and people and gas and coal. Okay, And they
Speaker 1: chose their radical extreme AOC endorsed, Bernie Sanders endorsed radicalism
Speaker 1: over the jobs of we the people. That's what happened here.
Speaker 1: Now we can have governor, and we can have attorneys generals,
Speaker 1: and they can bring lawsuits and they can fight in
Speaker 1: the judiciary. But this is what I tried to warn
Speaker 1: the country about way before the election. And it's not
Speaker 1: about Hannity was right. No, I've told everybody this is
Speaker 1: the most this is the most radical platform any major
Speaker 1: party ever ran on. And I kept telling people they
Speaker 1: mean it Now the mean it part is happening packing
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. Do you see statehood raising taxes on everybody?
Speaker 1: You have the Commerce Secretary nominee, admitting such, it's all
Speaker 1: happening sad. Back to our phones. Thanks, Steve, appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Let's say hi to Leah as in Arizona. Hey, Lee,
Speaker 1: how are you glad you called? Yes? Good afternoon, Sean.
Speaker 1: I have a question for you, and I've been thinking
Speaker 1: as a very concerned American citizen. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you can get with Mark Levin, very very smart, great
Speaker 1: constitutionalist that he is, to see if there's a way
Speaker 1: that um, Vice President Biden could take be made to
Speaker 1: take a cognitive test. Um, it's very obvious to me
Speaker 1: that and probably to a decent amount of people that
Speaker 1: he can barely put a sentence together. And Um, it's
Speaker 1: really sad on just a person a person, the person level. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I believe by Hook or Cook, the Democrats,
Speaker 1: they would make it happen if that had that, if that,
Speaker 1: if there was right at this time, a Republican in
Speaker 1: charge of running the country that acts the way Joe does,
Speaker 1: seemingly having cognitive difficulties obvious ones. Oh, they make sure
Speaker 1: that he I mean it, I've said it the whole campaign,
Speaker 1: the week, the frail, the cognitively struggling Joe Biden. There's
Speaker 1: nothing normal about how Joe is acting. He you know,
Speaker 1: there's nothing normal about this last campaign. As I've been saying,
Speaker 1: he lived under the Medium mob Big Tech candidate protection program,
Speaker 1: and they let him hide in the basement the whole time.
Speaker 1: That's what they let him do. My big concern is this,
Speaker 1: and I'm not trying to brush you off. I bet
Speaker 1: you even if he had a mini stroke and could
Speaker 1: still move a hand, because I used to be an
Speaker 1: ex self care professional, I bet you if he could
Speaker 1: still find those executive orders, they would make a way
Speaker 1: even if he had a stroke, to keep it hidden
Speaker 1: so he can find those orders. And it's very sad.
Speaker 1: It's really like elder abuse is sad, and his wife
Speaker 1: needs to take him to the side of my opinion
Speaker 1: that it is her husband. This listen, this decision, this
Speaker 1: ship sailed a long time ago, and I listen. I'm
Speaker 1: not a doctor. I'm not going to play one on
Speaker 1: radio or TV. I'm just saying my observation, and I
Speaker 1: know what happens to be the observation of many other people,
Speaker 1: even people in the media, mom that don't think like
Speaker 1: I do. Yeah, they're on pins and needles every time
Speaker 1: he opens his mouth. Over time, we'll see how, you know,
Speaker 1: the stamina, if he's fit and he's able to do
Speaker 1: the job up to an acceptable level. And then the
Speaker 1: American people, it's the policies are most afraid of now.
Speaker 1: I just think that he's put the Radical Democratic Party
Speaker 1: agenda ahead of working men and women, and now he
Speaker 1: is implementing every radical policy that they want. It is
Speaker 1: a socialist dream wish list and it's not gonna stop.
Speaker 1: And if he can't get it done legislatively, they'll use
Speaker 1: the reconciliation process. If they can't get it done that way,
Speaker 1: they'll just do it by executive fiat. That's how they roll.
Speaker 1: This is what I've been warning about. Thank you, Lee.
Speaker 1: Let's say hi to Susan and Michigan. What's up, Susan?
Speaker 1: How are you hello? How are you good? Thank you?
Speaker 1: I am calling because we're hearing a lot of horrible
Speaker 1: things and yeah, we know this is coming. That's why
Speaker 1: we didn't vote for this person. That's why we didn't
Speaker 1: vote for this regime. But what's the call to action?
Speaker 1: I mean, we need to know what to do next.
Speaker 1: Where are a Republicans? The most important thing I think
Speaker 1: we can do is I think the states, in particular
Speaker 1: attorneys generals, etc. Can do a lot and they can
Speaker 1: challenge these executive orders in the judiciary. And look, I
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of faith in that branch of government.
Speaker 1: You get the wrong judge, it's over. You won't get
Speaker 1: you won't get constitutionality, You'll get left wing judicial activism. Okay,
Speaker 1: but there are more judges thanks to President Trump, that
Speaker 1: believe in the constitution. That's one. Number two. State legislature
Speaker 1: legislatures need to ensure confidence and integrity in the voting system.
Speaker 1: And all of these respective states that you know, for example,
Speaker 1: of the law allows for partisan observers to observe, they've
Speaker 1: got to ensure that that happens. They got to follow
Speaker 1: the law. If the states a state constitution doesn't allow
Speaker 1: mail in voting, then if the state wants to change
Speaker 1: the constitution, they must go through that process. State legislatures
Speaker 1: need to follow the law, not circumvent their own states
Speaker 1: constitution or the laws in Wisconsin. I you know, I
Speaker 1: go back to the Wisconsin Supreme Court decision. If these
Speaker 1: what we need is a simple stuff voter id let's
Speaker 1: start there. Let's let's check all the voting roles in
Speaker 1: every states for the good of the country. It doesn't
Speaker 1: Wren like, how do we make sure that gets started? Like, well,
Speaker 1: that stuff that happened happens at the state level. Do
Speaker 1: you even most people don't know who they're state representatives
Speaker 1: and state senators are. Did you know that your ship
Speaker 1: at the top needs to make a concerted effort to
Speaker 1: make the states the people that are in the states
Speaker 1: that are in danger, like my state where fraud was rampant.
Speaker 1: I mean, neighbor was a poll observer, he was at
Speaker 1: the tcf BIL thing and everything they said was true,
Speaker 1: and nobody cares. We need to do something. Now, I
Speaker 1: think we're like the only show that interviewed eye witnesses
Speaker 1: that signed off of David's under a penalty of perjury.
Speaker 1: We might be the only maybe one or two others,
Speaker 1: and they did nothing with them. You have it investigated
Speaker 1: because of the incident that happened. They said, Well, because
Speaker 1: this happened, we're really not going to look at any
Speaker 1: evidence you have because one thing um makes the other
Speaker 1: go away, and that that doesn't make anything. Now I'm
Speaker 1: giving you the answer, and the answer is this is
Speaker 1: that everybody listening to our voices right now. Both of
Speaker 1: our voices need to know this. They need to know
Speaker 1: that they've got to start at the state level. They've
Speaker 1: got to encourage their attorneys generals. You know, if there
Speaker 1: are executive orders immigration, whatever it happens to be, energy
Speaker 1: that they can challenge these executive orders in the court.
Speaker 1: They should do it on behalf of the citizens of
Speaker 1: their state. Anyway, good call, I appreciate it. Thank you.
Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine for one. Sean is our number.
