WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:05.599 Empty shelves for lease signs and layoffs, student loans are due, 2 00:00:05.719 --> 00:00:08.439 and is there going to be a housing market correction? 3 00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:10.759 And we'll go over with those topics with Brian James 4 00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:14.119 and get his reaction to the news this morning involving 5 00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:17.760 the tariffs on China and Chinese tariffs on US. Empower 6 00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:21.760 You summitor doctor Robert Malone, injuries from the COVID vaccine 7 00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:23.600 continuing kind of a theme we've got going here on 8 00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:25.679 the fifty five care See morning show. This is the 9 00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:30.879 final empower You for the spring. So I just you know, 10 00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:34.759 props again to Dan Raganolld, the founder of empower You 11 00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:38.520 and what just really great topics there have been all 12 00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.079 over the place in terms of subject matter, but very 13 00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:44.119 interesting education opportunities and not a penny out of your pocket. 14 00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:49.920 So question which injuries did COVID mRNA vaccines cause? So 15 00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.759 looking forward to having doctor Robert Malone on the program 16 00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:56.159 at eight forty. Always enjoy hearing from you. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, 17 00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:58.640 fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two to three talk 18 00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:01.200 pound five fifty on eight T and ufhones And for 19 00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:03.039 all the gloom and doom sayers, the world's coming to 20 00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.840 an end because of our tariffs. It's like US and 21 00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:10.359 China have agreed to substantial tariff cuts just announced this morning. 22 00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:13.319 Details were unfolding over the weekend. Donald Trump came out 23 00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:16.120 on Saturday expressing some optimism about the direction of the 24 00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:19.200 talks and looks like they've borne fruit and you better 25 00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:21.159 be invested. I hope you're invested in the markets this 26 00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:23.560 morning because the nasdak s and P five hundred down 27 00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:27.439 industrials all trending way up. At the specifics on that 28 00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:31.200 in a second, but said this to released this. This 29 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:34.799 story broke this morning. They've agreed to suspend most tariffs 30 00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:39.480 US and China on each other's goods, pending further negotiations. 31 00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:43.599 There's a qualification built into this. Trump's reciprocal tariffs on 32 00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:47.359 China down to ten percent from one hundred and twenty 33 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:51.719 five percent. So the ten percents in place for every country, 34 00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:54.640 even if you've negotiated a settlement of resolution to the 35 00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:59.439 trade of the tariff dispute, because the administration's currently engage 36 00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.840 in conversations with one hundred and seventy countries. Of course, 37 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:04.599 Great Britain the other day announced it an agreement with 38 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:08.919 to reduce tariffs and allow more open, freer markets, something 39 00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:11.680 Trump promised that would come about from the tariffs. So 40 00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:15.840 down to ten percent separate twenty percent tariff the President 41 00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:18.360 I posed over what he described as China's role in 42 00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:22.520 the fentanyl trade, is going to stay in place. Beijing 43 00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:26.080 cutting its retaliatory levies on US goods to ten percent 44 00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:27.599 from one hundred and twenty five percent. 45 00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:28.199 So back just. 46 00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.759 So, what else do we have going on here? These reductions, 47 00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:43.199 they're not permanent. They're going to stay in place for 48 00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:48.240 apparently ninety days, while China and the United States continued talks, 49 00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:52.000 talks led by Treasury Secretary of Scott Descent and US 50 00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:56.400 Trade Representative jameson Greer on the US side, of course, 51 00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:01.240 Vice Premier he Lifing is there on behalf of China, 52 00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.159 And of course this is good news from a market standpoint. 53 00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:08.599 I know the market's been reeling as a consequence of 54 00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.919 and waiting for what is going to you know, unfold 55 00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:15.840 with the tariffs in place. Oh, looky here, starting on 56 00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:19.360 the low side of the futures markets, Dow Jones Industrials 57 00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:24.240 up two percent, SMP five hundred north of two and 58 00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:27.080 a half percent and the nasdac's way up at north 59 00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:31.400 of three and a half percent, So looking rather good 60 00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:35.080 for the markets this morning given the developments here with tariff, So. 61 00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:36.199 Keep your fingers crossed. 62 00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:39.319 Cooler heads may ultimately prevail and we may end up 63 00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:41.199 getting some benefits out of this. I know we have 64 00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:47.360 a tremendous trade imbalance one point two billion dollar trade 65 00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:49.759 deficits specifically, so I know Trump is trying to put 66 00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:52.520 an end to that and balance things out a little bit. 67 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.439 Of course, it's tough to compete with China given their 68 00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:59.599 low labor standard and cheap manufacturing. 69 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:00.479 Costs and cheap energy. 70 00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:05.199 Yeah, cheap energy because they continue to build coal plants 71 00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:08.280 and don't care about global warming and cutting their personal 72 00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:12.120 throats in the name of reducing carbon output. Let us 73 00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:15.039 see here speaking of that kind of a red flag. 74 00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:19.720 PJM Interconnection the largest power grid operator in the United 75 00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:23.639 States and of course, well maybe not of course from 76 00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:29.759 It includes Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, a huge chunk 77 00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:33.600 of Kentucky, and some eastern seaboard states, so it's a large, 78 00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:38.680 large power grid operator. They issued a warning this past 79 00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:42.360 Friday extreme heat this summer could well deal with would 80 00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:46.120 run right into record energy demand for a variety of reasons. Ever, 81 00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:49.319 record energy demand extreme heat of course causes everybody's air 82 00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:51.879 conditions to turn on and go higher, but also the 83 00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:55.399 increase in electric vehicles and artificial intelligence on the grid 84 00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:58.079 a lot of additional power demand out there core to 85 00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:00.639 the grid operator. The season also marks the first time 86 00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:06.160 in pjm's annual assessment, however, that available generation capacity may 87 00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:09.920 fall short of required reserves in an extreme planning scenario 88 00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.800 that would result in an all time PJM peak load, 89 00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:18.040 specifically more than one hundred and sixty six thousand megawatts. 90 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:21.199 They're just basically issuing you a warning that you know 91 00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:25.439 you may have your power shut off. Grid operator warned 92 00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:29.360 that a perfect storm of here we go, retiring fossil 93 00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:34.839 fuel plants, sluggish renewable energy growth, and soaring demand could 94 00:05:34.879 --> 00:05:38.560 trigger shortages for the first time. In a quote from 95 00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:42.519 PJMPGM continues to voice concerns about the supply and demand 96 00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:47.600 imbalance driven by generator retirements and the slow build of 97 00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:51.639 new resources in the face of accelerating demand growth. When 98 00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:54.439 can't keep a steady power source and we'd keep putting 99 00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.160 more and more and more and more demands on the grid. 100 00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:05.360 It's a recipe for absolute outright disaster. So and they 101 00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:09.120 do sub electric vehicles, AI data centers and other you know, 102 00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:15.079 the rush to electrification of everything. So they're warning about 103 00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:19.240 potential summer shortfalls a direct consequence of aggressive net zero 104 00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:23.279 and green energy policies which have destabilized power grids and 105 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:26.399 driven prices higher, particularly here in the Mid Atlantic States. 106 00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:28.399 And you know, Duke already announced you're going to have 107 00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:31.399 an increase in your electricity charge. It's going to go up. 108 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:36.480 So reliability down, price up. Exactly what we all want 109 00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:46.240 out of here, isn't it. It's crazy, gotting our own throats. 110 00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:49.560 And another interesting news, and I don't know if he 111 00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:53.279 can pull it off, but Donald Trump announced he's planning 112 00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:55.279 on signing an executive order today heard at the top 113 00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:57.759 of the ar news that will reduce the cost of 114 00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:01.519 prescription drugs and pharmaceuticals almost immediately, in his words, by 115 00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:03.000 thirty to eighty percent. 116 00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:05.480 Huh. 117 00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:07.959 And that's what yesterday on truth social media. For many years, 118 00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:11.600 the world has wondered why the prescription drugs and pharmaceuticals 119 00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:13.879 in the United States of America were so much higher 120 00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:16.879 in price than they were in any other nation, sometimes 121 00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:20.000 being five to ten times more expensive than the same 122 00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:23.279 drug manufactured in the exact same lab or plant by 123 00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:26.959 the same company. It was always difficult to explain and 124 00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:30.560 very embarrassing because in fact there was no correct or 125 00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:31.720 rightful answer, he said. 126 00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:34.480 Hmm. It continued. 127 00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:37.720 The pharmaceutical drug companies would say for years that it 128 00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:41.120 was research and development costs, that all these costs were 129 00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:43.800 and would be for no reason whatsoever, borne by the 130 00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:49.839 suckers of America alone. Campaign contributions can do wonders, but 131 00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:55.199 not with me and not with the Republican Party. So 132 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:57.120 we're going to do the right things sometimes that the 133 00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.160 Democrats have fought for many years. Therefore, I I am 134 00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:03.240 police to announce it tomorrow. That will be today in 135 00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:05.399 the morning, at nine am. This morning, at nine I 136 00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:07.800 will be signing one of the most consequential executive vorders 137 00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:11.160 in our country's history. Prescription drug and pharmaceutical prices will 138 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:14.680 be reduced almost immediately thirty to eighty percent. I will 139 00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:19.160 be instituting a most Favored Nations policy, he wrote, whereby 140 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:23.439 the United States will pay the same price as the 141 00:08:23.560 --> 00:08:28.160 nation that pays the lowest price anywhere in the world. 142 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.920 Our country will finally be treated fairly, and our citizens' 143 00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:34.879 health care costs will be reduced by numbers never seen 144 00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:38.559 through the even thought of before. Additionally, on top of 145 00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:44.720 everything else, the United States will save trillions of dollars. Well, 146 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:52.320 can he pull that off through an executive order? I 147 00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:53.720 guess I'm just kind of wondering. I know there's a 148 00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:59.000 lot of contracts out there. Last month, he signed an 149 00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:02.519 executive vorder stand up using Medicare payments for prescription drugs, 150 00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:04.919 including those used for cancer patients, no matter where a 151 00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:08.360 patient receives treatment. Fact sheet said at the time the 152 00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:11.000 order could lower prices for patients more than sixty percent 153 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:15.799 or also called to match Medicare payment for certain prescription 154 00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:17.480 drugs to the price the hospital's pay. 155 00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:17.720 See. 156 00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:19.600 Oh, there's the kind of a parallel you can draw 157 00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:22.000 that's up to thirty five percent lower than what the 158 00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:24.759 government pays to acquire the medications. So let me the 159 00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:28.039 looking out into the world, going back to his executive 160 00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:31.480 order for this morning, what's the lowest price out there? 161 00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:33.679 We're going to be matched. That's what we're going to pay. 162 00:09:34.519 --> 00:09:37.039 And it's noted that this will cause the price of 163 00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:40.519 pharmaceuticals globally to go up because the pharmaceuticals aren't going 164 00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:42.919 to walk away from profits. So assuming this is valid, 165 00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:45.679 and then he can do this and he can lower 166 00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:48.840 the price of pharmaceuticals here in the country to the 167 00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:51.559 lowest price that they are sold out in the world. 168 00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:54.679 Of course, I imagine the pharmaceutical company is going to 169 00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:57.080 raise the price out there in the world so they 170 00:09:57.120 --> 00:09:59.000 can again get some of the profit back. 171 00:09:59.039 --> 00:09:59.759 But isn't that. 172 00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:06.600 More fair? And it is kind of a mystery, how 173 00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:06.879 is it? 174 00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:07.320 You know? 175 00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.279 I speak for John Roman to cover sensium. One of 176 00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:11.360 the ways he can save folks money is because he 177 00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:14.879 can arrange They have pharmaceuticals purchased from Canada, which is legal. 178 00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:17.919 Why does Canada get them a lot cheaper than the 179 00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:22.120 United States? What magic did they wield upon the pharmaceutical companies. Well, 180 00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:25.360 apparently it's because the pharmaceutical companies can force us to 181 00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:30.279 pay for them. You know, it's like global wealth distribution. 182 00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:35.159 We have more money than some country elsewhere, arago, we 183 00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:38.919 have to pay more to subsidize the purchase of pharmaceuticals 184 00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:44.600 in other countries. Yeah, I suppose talk amongst yourselves on 185 00:10:44.639 --> 00:10:46.679 that one, but I think it's a step in the 186 00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:51.240 right direction. I'm certain that the pharmaceutical companies will will 187 00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:54.320 take this thing to court, like literally everything Trump has 188 00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:58.200 been doing, but with the American people can benefit from this. 189 00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:01.919 And you're facing a really expensive monthly bill on pharmaceuticals 190 00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:05.120 and you think, wow, if this works, that bill's going 191 00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:07.320 to drop by thirty to eighty percent. That puts a 192 00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:10.080 smile on so many people's faces. Let's face it, at 193 00:11:10.080 --> 00:11:11.759 the vast majority of us are on some kind of 194 00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:19.320 pharmaceutical So we'll see anxious to hear what the uh 195 00:11:21.279 --> 00:11:23.360 the Democrats in the left have to say about this? 196 00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:26.559 Are they going to oppose it because Donald Trump is 197 00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:30.120 in favor of it. Even if opposition comes at the 198 00:11:30.159 --> 00:11:33.360 cost of you continuing to pay far more for your 199 00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:36.840 pharmaceuticals than any other country in the world, that's a 200 00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:40.080 dangerous ground for them to be taken. I'd argue U 201 00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:43.080 five point three seven four nine fifty eight hundred eight 202 00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:44.919 two to three talk pound five fifty on at and 203 00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:48.440 T fund speaking of something about well, it doesn't require pharmaceuticals. 204 00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:52.320 QC Kinetics, the nation's leader in non surgical relief for 205 00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:55.200 joint pain. You know they've been at this for about 206 00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:57.840 eight years and they have more than fifty thousand satisfied patients, 207 00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:00.799 people with knee and back pain now living pain free, 208 00:12:00.799 --> 00:12:04.440 shoulder and hip pain gone. And it's not pharmaceuticals. You 209 00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:07.200 may be on pharmaceuticals right now because you're struggling with 210 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:09.360 this pain and your doctor may have mentioned surgery, and 211 00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:11.559 you know that's going to cause downtime and there's risks 212 00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:14.879 associated with surgery. This is coming from your own body. 213 00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:18.639 Natural regenerative cell therapy to restore the tissue in your 214 00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.240 achy joints. Biologic growth factors taken from your body, concentrated 215 00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:25.600 in place exactly where that pain is. Powerful, impotent way 216 00:12:25.600 --> 00:12:28.360 to give your joints new life by repairing the old tissue. 217 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:30.440 Sort of that naturally, if you think about it's in 218 00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:34.720 office procedure again, no drugs, no surgery involved, no downtime UH, 219 00:12:34.919 --> 00:12:38.399 and patient satisfaction reports are just amazing.

You've got an AT 234 00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:15.440 and T phone. As we struggle with demands on the 235 00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:18.799 grid and apparently potential blackouts over the summer because of 236 00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:21.480 the extra demands on the grid and the reduction of 237 00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:26.360 power generation given this global shift to green power generation, 238 00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:30.080 which isn't reliable, that would definitely impact my decision whether 239 00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:32.000 or not to purchase an EV and apparently, accord to 240 00:13:32.039 --> 00:13:35.919 a new industry data compiled by Motor Intelligence, four point 241 00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:40.840 three percent declining US EV sales in April, while automobile 242 00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:44.639 sales jumped ten percent during the same time period. So 243 00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:47.720 people aren't buying the evs, but they're still buying more automobiles. 244 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:51.039 Tesla model S down seventy one percent, Model X down 245 00:13:51.080 --> 00:13:55.320 thirty four percent, Cyber truck down thirty percent, Model Y 246 00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:58.919 down twenty two percent, Tesla Model three though jump twenty 247 00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:03.360 four percent. Rivian electric cars declined thirty three percent. Lucid 248 00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:08.200 did jump seven percent, so they sold more. Study from 249 00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:10.639 last year by mackenzie and Company found forty six percent 250 00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:13.600 of US EV drivers want to switch back to gas 251 00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:18.320 powered cars. Galloped At a survey, nearly half forty seven 252 00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:21.240 percent of Americans said they would not buy an electric vehicle. 253 00:14:21.279 --> 00:14:27.320 That's up from forty one percent the prior year, so 254 00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:31.840 not exactly well, you know, And here's the thing. If 255 00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.559 you're making an informed decision, you think, Wow. Pjam's the 256 00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:39.279 largest power grid, the old largest power provider in the Midwest, 257 00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:41.840 says it's going to have some problems keeping the lights 258 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:45.360 on this summer. If demand bumps, how are you going 259 00:14:45.440 --> 00:14:48.320 to charge your car? Hey Pete, welcome to the Morning 260 00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:50.440 Show and a very happy Monday to you. Thanks for calling. 261 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:57.720 Thanks Brian. How are we getting jabs on pharmaceuticals? I 262 00:14:57.759 --> 00:15:02.399 had a situations where I needed to braces and I 263 00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:06.279 checked to see if they were covered by Medicare, and 264 00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:09.200 they said they were. They were a thousand dollars each 265 00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:13.759 Medicare paid eight hundred and I was supposed to pay 266 00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:17.679 two hundred each. And I googled them on Google lens 267 00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:20.480 and that exact same brace is on there. 268 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:22.360 For one hundred and thirty nine. 269 00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:28.519 So they're charging our government medicare me. 270 00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:29.879 They're trying to charge. 271 00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:30.600 Us ten times. 272 00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:31.960 Yeah, what that thing? 273 00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:36.120 And that's retail. I bet that thing doesn't cost fifty bucks. 274 00:15:36.159 --> 00:15:36.799 Probably not. 275 00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:40.600 If Trump can do with the pharmaceuticals, he needs to 276 00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:43.480 do it with all the appliances and all the because 277 00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:47.480 they are literally raping us on that and our government 278 00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:48.480 on that's crazy. 279 00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:51.000 Yes they are, and they get away with it. That's yeah, 280 00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:53.759 you're just the tip of the iceberg on that. There 281 00:15:53.799 --> 00:15:56.879 are a million stories along the same lines how the 282 00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:00.960 American taxpayers are getting ripped off along again paying too 283 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:03.279 much for any given item that goes through a government 284 00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:07.159 payment program. Therein lies the challenge. Maybe we should unleast 285 00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:09.559 doze on that. That'd be a great idea, wouldn't it, 286 00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:12.360 And coming up local stories ormophone calls.

Man, You know. 349 00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:58.319 That, hey, this this this what Trump is trying to 350 00:18:58.359 --> 00:19:02.799 do now what he's well been doing whatever, and especially 351 00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:06.400 this thing where he's he's starting to get in into 352 00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:09.559 these big pasta goal that these uh that the government 353 00:19:09.599 --> 00:19:11.599 has at least that's the way everybody looks at it. 354 00:19:13.039 --> 00:19:16.960 I agree. I've always had an issue with how much 355 00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:20.640 money the government has to pay for things as opposed 356 00:19:20.680 --> 00:19:25.160 to you know, normal private citizens or whatever stuff like that. 357 00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:28.680 You know, being in the construction industry.

So you know, 368 00:20:02.720 --> 00:20:05.440 that's fine. If people want to give hundreds of thousands 369 00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:09.079 or million dollars or whatever to support athletics or whatever, 370 00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:09.640 that's great. 371 00:20:09.720 --> 00:20:10.319 Good for you. 372 00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:12.240 That's your money. You do whatever you want with it. 373 00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:14.839 But when it comes to the state money, that's our money, 374 00:20:14.839 --> 00:20:18.000 that's our task dollars, and it is it is good 375 00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:20.119 to know that there's somebody out there who's saying, well, 376 00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:23.880 wait a second, we don't have to pay what peace say, 377 00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:28.279 ten times more or however many times more for something 378 00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:31.920 just because we're the government. That's not fair, that's not right, 379 00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:35.079 because it's not like we are the government. Yes, we 380 00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:36.960 can go print our own money, but it's got to 381 00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:39.759 come from somewhere, you know, and it's coming off out 382 00:20:39.759 --> 00:20:44.799 of our taxes and so. But he's walking on eggsdale. Now, 383 00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:46.720 let me let me put this, let me put this different. 384 00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:48.839 He's not walking on eggsdale. He's a pull in a 385 00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:52.160 China job. But he's going into territory where now you're 386 00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:55.799 starting to mess with these people's livelihood, these people who 387 00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:58.480 are involved in all these contracts, these people who have 388 00:20:58.519 --> 00:21:01.279 been getting the kick back to who are enjoying this 389 00:21:01.480 --> 00:21:04.319 surplus of money, and he's going to be messing with that. 390 00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:06.920 He's really going to start messing with people who are 391 00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:10.880 in positions of power. So uh yeah, it's it's gonna 392 00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:13.759 get disty here. But he's on the right track because 393 00:21:13.759 --> 00:21:16.400 he's trying to save you and I and that's regular 394 00:21:16.480 --> 00:21:20.279 taxpayers money, something that the Democrats don't seem to give 395 00:21:20.319 --> 00:21:23.200 a crap about. They enjoy the pluff, but they talk 396 00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:25.440 about it. They say all kinds of things about it. 397 00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:28.319 And to your point, you know, it's dangerous for Democrats 398 00:21:28.359 --> 00:21:31.160 to oppose this whole prescription drug thing, because haven't they 399 00:21:31.279 --> 00:21:35.359 been clamoring about lowering prescription drugs, and now here's somebody 400 00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:37.319 going to do it. Because it's not them, they might 401 00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:40.440 oppose it. Yeah, this is gonna get real disty and interesting, 402 00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:42.839 and I'm definitely going to make a bag of popcorn 403 00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:44.640 to put my feet up and pay attention to. Yeah, 404 00:21:44.680 --> 00:21:46.920 so Boote Democrats. 405 00:21:46.319 --> 00:21:51.519 Thanks to Tom. But consider the money trail. You know, 406 00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:53.960 you and I are funding the shouldering the burning of 407 00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:57.160 these thousand dollars prosthetic things or knee braces or whatever 408 00:21:57.200 --> 00:21:59.799 for Pete and ninety gazillion other people in the United 409 00:21:59.799 --> 00:22:02.440 States when you can find them on the open market 410 00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:04.559 for one hundred and fifty bucks. Scratch your head over 411 00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:09.240 that one. But consider the money trail. Pharmaceutical companies make 412 00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:12.279 a lot of money by negotiating those great contracts with 413 00:22:12.640 --> 00:22:18.599 government programs like Medicare Medicaid, and it makes them heap 414 00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:20.880 loads of money, money which they can funnel back into 415 00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:23.799 the pockets of politicians and maybe kickbacks and bribes. 416 00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:24.319 I don't know. 417 00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:27.480 Some of it be illegal, but there it is, a 418 00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:30.599 pot of money grows bigger for the pharmaceutical companies, and 419 00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:34.240 of course they reward those who reward them couple that 420 00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:36.480 with the fact that government doesn't have any incentive to 421 00:22:36.480 --> 00:22:38.599 act like a real business and watch out for the 422 00:22:38.640 --> 00:22:42.559 bottom line because they have an unlimited, well at least 423 00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:45.799 theoretically unlimited supply of money flowing into their coffers that 424 00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:49.440 they don't have to work for or earn taxpayer dollars, 425 00:22:50.839 --> 00:22:53.720 zero incentive to control the bottom line. So yeah, this 426 00:22:53.839 --> 00:22:55.720 is why I like Doze in the work that Doze 427 00:22:55.759 --> 00:23:00.880 has done because it reveals this insidious relationship between government, 428 00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:05.000 government officials, elected officials, and the American people that they 429 00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:09.279 purport to represent, and we find out that no, they're 430 00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:13.119 really not actually representing us. They just don't care. That's 431 00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:17.319 my conclusion on the whole thing. Eh, maybe you went 432 00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:19.200 over to Gate of Heaven Cemetery over the weekend and 433 00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:22.880 enjoy the peaceful, relaxing environment.

Thank you, jos Strecker, you 472 00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:19.400 anticipated that one, the employee Astraman anonymous did.

More and 716 00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:25.480 more information coming out about that every single day. Feel 717 00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:27.679 free to direct the topic of conversation. We got something 718 00:38:27.679 --> 00:38:30.039 to say five three, seven, four, nine fifty, five hundred, 719 00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:32.280 eight hundred and eighty two to three talk and pound 720 00:38:32.320 --> 00:38:35.400 five fifty on AT and T phones. Yeah, the substantial 721 00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:37.320 tariff cuts we agreed to with China have really had 722 00:38:37.360 --> 00:38:40.920 a profound impact on market futures. Uh, it's a good 723 00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:42.639 day to be invested in the market. If the trend 724 00:38:42.679 --> 00:38:47.840 continues during trading hours, just shy a four percent Nasdaq increase, 725 00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:51.679 more than two percent for the Dow and right now 726 00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:54.519 just under three percent increase for the S and P 727 00:38:54.639 --> 00:38:58.239 five hundred and so indication that people are happy about 728 00:38:58.280 --> 00:39:03.280 these the pause and these tariffs. Both sides are going 729 00:39:03.320 --> 00:39:06.199 to cut retaliatory levees then to ten percent, although there's 730 00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:08.320 a separate twenty percent tariff. The President opposed on what 731 00:39:08.360 --> 00:39:10.639 he described his channel's role in the fentyl trade, and 732 00:39:10.679 --> 00:39:15.280 that will remain in place. But the one hundred and 733 00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:18.400 twenty five percent reciprocal tariff now down to just ten percent, 734 00:39:18.440 --> 00:39:21.639 and Trump's leading a ten percent flat tariff across all countries. 735 00:39:21.679 --> 00:39:24.519 And they're currently still negotiating with a variety of other countries. 736 00:39:24.519 --> 00:39:27.480 And of course last week we reached an agreement with Britain, 737 00:39:28.280 --> 00:39:30.800 which was, you know, a step in the right direction. 738 00:39:31.559 --> 00:39:33.119 And this is what Trump promised to do. You know, 739 00:39:33.199 --> 00:39:36.679 you throw these tariffs on everybody, and trust me, I 740 00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:40.719 kind of little concerned about him as a strategy. But 741 00:39:42.199 --> 00:39:44.480 if they are harmed or their economies are going to 742 00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:46.199 be harmed by them, then it forces them to the 743 00:39:46.239 --> 00:39:48.559 negotiation table where maybe we can come up with something 744 00:39:48.599 --> 00:39:51.039 a little bit more practical that benefits both countries, and 745 00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:54.159 that's all Trump was trying to do. So anyway, the 746 00:39:54.679 --> 00:39:57.400 markets really have reacted favorably to this, and I think 747 00:39:57.440 --> 00:40:00.519 you and I will react favorably if our pharmaceutical prices 748 00:40:00.599 --> 00:40:02.519 come down, and that's one thing that Trump has promised 749 00:40:02.559 --> 00:40:05.159 to do today with this executive order. Now I have 750 00:40:05.199 --> 00:40:07.199 to qualify it and say, I'm certain that we're going 751 00:40:07.239 --> 00:40:11.440 to see litigation over this. Can Donald Trump unilaterally declare 752 00:40:11.519 --> 00:40:16.320 a most Favored Nations policy? So after a long witted 753 00:40:16.920 --> 00:40:19.840 ramp up to why he's doing this, with our pharmaceutical 754 00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:22.840 prices will far in excess of what the rest of 755 00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:29.320 the world pays, up to five to ten times more 756 00:40:29.360 --> 00:40:32.760 than what pharmaceutical companies starts for the exact same pharmaceutical, 757 00:40:32.760 --> 00:40:34.920 as he pointed out, made in the exact same plant. 758 00:40:34.960 --> 00:40:39.400 Why are we all paying that much more? So the 759 00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:41.519 executiveorder is supposed to be signed today, it will be 760 00:40:41.599 --> 00:40:45.159 instituting a most Favored Nations policy, whereby the United States 761 00:40:45.199 --> 00:40:49.239 will pay the same price as the nation that pays 762 00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:53.119 the lowest price anywhere in the world, saying our country 763 00:40:53.159 --> 00:40:55.400 will finally be treated fairly in our citizens' health care 764 00:40:55.480 --> 00:40:58.119 costs will be reduced by numbers never before even thought 765 00:40:58.159 --> 00:41:02.519 of before claiming a thirty eighty percent reduction almost immediately, 766 00:41:03.599 --> 00:41:06.320 So keep your popcorn out and keep your fingers crossed 767 00:41:06.320 --> 00:41:08.440 that this actually works. Now, it's going to be much 768 00:41:08.440 --> 00:41:10.119 of the chagrant of the other nations in the world, 769 00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:12.559 who presumably are going to having to pay more. I 770 00:41:12.599 --> 00:41:16.760 can't see pharmaceutical companies walking away from their profit margins, 771 00:41:16.760 --> 00:41:20.719 which have been bolstered by what we pay on the 772 00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:25.360 price of medications. But apparently drug prices have jumped significantly 773 00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:28.360 in recent years. Between January twenty two and twenty three, 774 00:41:29.639 --> 00:41:33.400 prescription drug prices rose more than fifteen percent and reached 775 00:41:33.440 --> 00:41:38.719 an average of five hundred and ninety dollars per drug product. 776 00:41:38.719 --> 00:41:43.199 That's courting the Department of Health and Human Services information Shoosh. 777 00:41:45.280 --> 00:41:47.920 Of the four thousand, two hundre prescription drugs included in 778 00:41:48.000 --> 00:41:51.480 the list, forty six percent of the price increases exceeded 779 00:41:51.480 --> 00:41:54.760 the rate of inflation. So you think there's something nefarious 780 00:41:54.800 --> 00:41:57.199 going on out here and the price of pharmaceuticals. I 781 00:41:57.239 --> 00:41:58.920 know we all have had that sort of feeling for 782 00:41:59.039 --> 00:42:02.320 years and years and year, But we have been subsidizing 783 00:42:02.360 --> 00:42:04.880 research and development for the pharmaceutical companies, and why did 784 00:42:04.920 --> 00:42:08.920 the other countries always get the benefit of well us 785 00:42:08.960 --> 00:42:12.760 carrying the water. So I like the idea, and I'm 786 00:42:12.760 --> 00:42:15.639 really anxious to see how the Democrats react to this. 787 00:42:16.480 --> 00:42:18.719 Now you can imagine the pharmaceutical companies wanting to run 788 00:42:18.719 --> 00:42:20.719 into court to try to stop this from happening. But 789 00:42:20.760 --> 00:42:23.320 what are the Democrats going to say? Is this something 790 00:42:23.320 --> 00:42:27.199 that they're against? Are they going to make some sort 791 00:42:27.239 --> 00:42:31.320 of socialist wealth redistribution argument in favor of the other 792 00:42:31.440 --> 00:42:34.280 countries getting the benefit of us paying so much more 793 00:42:34.320 --> 00:42:39.519 for pharmaceuticals ergoes subsidizing their low cost I mean, that's 794 00:42:39.519 --> 00:42:41.079 the only road I can see them going down, because 795 00:42:41.440 --> 00:42:45.800 everybody's clamoring for lower prices in pharmaceuticals. Democrats get pharmaceuticals, 796 00:42:45.800 --> 00:42:50.239 Republicans do. Everybody does, and with inflationary pressures we're all facing. 797 00:42:50.280 --> 00:42:57.599 This seems like a win win sort of bipartisan perhaps outcome. 798 00:42:58.360 --> 00:43:01.559 Who could argue with that? In as well, Democrats always 799 00:43:01.599 --> 00:43:03.719 figure a way out. If Trump does something, then they're 800 00:43:03.800 --> 00:43:09.559 against it, period, end of story. So I'm waiting with 801 00:43:09.719 --> 00:43:13.960 my popcorn out. There's sort of a grin on my face, 802 00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:16.840 wondering how they're going to wrestle with this one. What 803 00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:19.960 would you say to that? No, Trump, don't, don't. Don't 804 00:43:19.960 --> 00:43:24.800 lower pharmaceutical prices for American citizens. We need to subsidize 805 00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:27.599 the rest of the world. I don't know that that flies. 806 00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:32.599 So I think that's going to be the more interesting 807 00:43:32.599 --> 00:43:40.320 component of it. Democrats reaction. Uh, let us see here. Oh, 808 00:43:40.440 --> 00:43:44.840 this this is fantastic. So last Friday, the Ohio Republican 809 00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:51.159 Party Central State Central Committee endorsed Dave ek Ramaswami for 810 00:43:51.280 --> 00:43:55.000 governor and Senator John Houston for well his Senate bid. 811 00:43:55.039 --> 00:43:56.760 He's got to get re elected or he's got to 812 00:43:56.760 --> 00:43:59.119 get elected because he was appointed to that Senate position. 813 00:43:59.719 --> 00:44:03.119 So VvE went, I mean he walked away with it 814 00:44:03.280 --> 00:44:08.880 secret ballot. He needed forty four yes votes. Vive got 815 00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:16.159 sixty to three. And that's in spite of Governor Mike 816 00:44:16.199 --> 00:44:19.280 the Wine's efforts to try to well to tank support 817 00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:24.960 for vivik Ramaswamy. What he was trying to do in 818 00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:27.280 the lead up to the vote. He was lobbying hard 819 00:44:27.320 --> 00:44:31.039 to block this vote from happening. The governor apparently himself, 820 00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:35.000 making calls claiming it was too early to endorse anyone, 821 00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:41.320 just ahead of Tressel's Thursday night statement that he was 822 00:44:41.360 --> 00:44:48.719 going to run for the for the Governor's office Lieutenant governor. 823 00:44:48.760 --> 00:44:50.960 Jim Trussell football coach. I love how they add that 824 00:44:51.000 --> 00:44:53.559 in there. It's like every time you mentioned Elon musk 825 00:44:53.559 --> 00:44:56.519 you gotta mention billionaire Elon musk Well football coach Jim 826 00:44:56.519 --> 00:44:59.599 Trussell appointed by governor to Wine for lieutenant governor with 827 00:44:59.679 --> 00:45:04.000 the shape he hadn't yet formerly endorsed, And so Dwine 828 00:45:04.119 --> 00:45:09.280 was running around trying to make the arguments that declarations 829 00:45:09.320 --> 00:45:14.360 of candidacy aren't due until February fourth of next year. Oh, 830 00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:17.480 it's too early, it's too early, many claiming that he 831 00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:20.039 wanted a delay on this vote so he could sort 832 00:45:20.039 --> 00:45:23.679 of go around and argue why Tressel was a viable 833 00:45:23.800 --> 00:45:27.519 and more and better candidate than the very very popular 834 00:45:27.599 --> 00:45:33.760 check out your polls Viva Ramaswami Dwaine saying regarding an 835 00:45:33.800 --> 00:45:36.159 endorsement being premature, as far as who I endorse in 836 00:45:36.199 --> 00:45:40.480 the Republican primary for governor, it's much too early right as. 837 00:45:40.280 --> 00:45:42.880 We do not know who all will be in the race. 838 00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:48.960 One of the Essential Committee members speaking with the Ohio 839 00:45:48.960 --> 00:45:53.239 Press Network, unidentified individual making the statement, Dwain is trying 840 00:45:53.239 --> 00:45:55.440 to buy time as a man in Ohio politics for 841 00:45:55.440 --> 00:45:58.519 almost fifty years, his connections would afford him the chance 842 00:45:58.960 --> 00:46:02.960 to make party members knuckle under and bowed his demands 843 00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:10.199 in the long run, claiming this effort exposes Dwine's delay 844 00:46:10.199 --> 00:46:13.559 as a power grab and not a procedural concern. Well, 845 00:46:13.639 --> 00:46:20.400 you know, I dewines fading from the limelight. Yeah, fifty years, 846 00:46:20.440 --> 00:46:22.719 it's not his night. It's time for him to move on. 847 00:46:22.840 --> 00:46:25.000 Why would he want to struggle to maintain some sort 848 00:46:25.039 --> 00:46:27.559 of power in the form of Lieutenant Governor Jim Trussel? 849 00:46:28.800 --> 00:46:31.679 And would you vote for him for governor? Youvey Gramma 850 00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:35.559 Swammy polling huge in the state of Ohio seventy one 851 00:46:35.639 --> 00:46:40.039 percent poll recently conducted surveying the Ohio GOP primary landscape 852 00:46:40.079 --> 00:46:44.599 vvik Ramaswammy grabbing seventy one percent of the Republican vote, 853 00:46:44.800 --> 00:46:51.079 sixty five percent net favorability rating, and of course Donald 854 00:46:51.079 --> 00:46:55.119 Trump's endorsement didn't harm him in that regard. So I 855 00:46:55.119 --> 00:46:58.800 think this is a significant indication again sixty to three 856 00:46:58.960 --> 00:47:03.840 supporting Ramas. I mean, the wine apparently no longer carries 857 00:47:03.880 --> 00:47:07.760 any power in Columbus. I know, Joe, That's exactly how 858 00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:11.480 I felt about it. Time for a new guard, and 859 00:47:11.559 --> 00:47:14.280 I think the bank is going to do a wonderful job. 860 00:47:14.599 --> 00:47:18.440 I would argue when he gets elected next governor of 861 00:47:18.440 --> 00:47:21.440 the state of Ohio. USA's premium film does a wonderful job. 862 00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:23.079 And I talk about it in the forms of return 863 00:47:23.119 --> 00:47:25.679 on investment.

Fifty 892 00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:50.039 five KRC the talk station. Hey, if you're listening to 893 00:48:50.079 --> 00:48:53.360 me right six twenty two and fifty five KRCD Talk Station, 894 00:48:54.000 --> 00:48:56.559 can you feel free to call like five one three, 895 00:48:56.599 --> 00:48:58.599 seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty 896 00:48:58.599 --> 00:49:00.440 two to three talk how five fifty on at and 897 00:49:00.480 --> 00:49:03.480 t Bump. So as I contemplated how the Democrats are 898 00:49:03.480 --> 00:49:06.280 going to try to navigate Trump while slashing drug prices. 899 00:49:06.320 --> 00:49:08.480 If he can get away with it with an executive order, 900 00:49:09.480 --> 00:49:13.039 you and I will pay the same price as the 901 00:49:13.119 --> 00:49:15.039 nations out there in the world that pay the lowest 902 00:49:15.039 --> 00:49:17.880 price anywhere in the world, most favored nations policies what 903 00:49:17.920 --> 00:49:20.840 this executive order basically is boiled down to. So as 904 00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:23.239 I contemplate how the left is going to react to that, 905 00:49:23.320 --> 00:49:27.000 because anything Trump does is bad, I was drawn to 906 00:49:27.039 --> 00:49:32.599 this survey Rasmusen poll Maybe which reflect the level of 907 00:49:33.079 --> 00:49:38.960 well Trump and Musk derangement syndrome. Survey found that eighty 908 00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:43.480 percent of Americans identifying as liberal would like to see 909 00:49:43.480 --> 00:49:46.960 Elon Musk thrown in prison because of his involvement with 910 00:49:47.000 --> 00:49:50.559 the Department of Government Efficiency. Now contemplate that for a moment, 911 00:49:52.639 --> 00:49:55.239 the guy who's responsible for enlightening all of us about 912 00:49:55.239 --> 00:49:57.360 the fraud, waste, and abuse in government, the guy that 913 00:49:57.480 --> 00:49:59.960 is responsible for letting us know that they had hundreds 914 00:50:00.079 --> 00:50:02.840 of thousands of literally dead people on the Social Security 915 00:50:02.880 --> 00:50:07.440 active ranks. The guy that discovered USA and all the 916 00:50:08.000 --> 00:50:11.280 batcrab crazy programs that you and I were funding while 917 00:50:11.320 --> 00:50:13.920 we dig ourselves in a deficit hole. Bigger and bigger 918 00:50:13.960 --> 00:50:18.239 and bigger and bigger. Nothing nothing, I guess should be 919 00:50:18.239 --> 00:50:21.800 cut according to these crazies. Poll found that almost three 920 00:50:21.880 --> 00:50:27.280 quarters of Democrats want Musk in jail. When extended to 921 00:50:27.320 --> 00:50:31.480 those describing themselves as liberal, the amount rises to eighty percent, 922 00:50:31.599 --> 00:50:34.679 So Democrats three quarters of Democrats generally speaking, and the 923 00:50:34.800 --> 00:50:39.719 far liberal ranks of the Democrats eighty percent. Question quote, 924 00:50:39.760 --> 00:50:43.400 would you support a hypothetical law that would imprison Elon 925 00:50:43.519 --> 00:50:45.719 Musk for his role in Doge? 926 00:50:46.880 --> 00:50:51.559 That's it was. 927 00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:54.360 A telephone and online survey one thousand and sixty seven 928 00:50:54.440 --> 00:50:58.360 US likely voters found that fifty four percent of likely 929 00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:01.039 voters would support a hypothetical law I'm prisoning Musk fors 930 00:51:01.119 --> 00:51:05.599 rolling Doge. Thirty nine percent who would strongly support such 931 00:51:05.599 --> 00:51:08.800 a law. A more moderate sixty eight percent say with 932 00:51:08.800 --> 00:51:11.280 a support of law banning Musk from being involved in 933 00:51:11.360 --> 00:51:16.159 any way with government. And they basic it they presumed, 934 00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:17.880 and I guess it's safe for them to presume. It's 935 00:51:17.880 --> 00:51:22.239 because well, he is supportive of President Trump. Trump appointed him, 936 00:51:22.280 --> 00:51:26.119 and therefore it's bad really, that's all it takes. Going 937 00:51:26.159 --> 00:51:28.360 back to my comment about slashing the drug prices, because 938 00:51:28.480 --> 00:51:31.119 if Trump is successful in slashing your drug prices eighty percent, 939 00:51:31.239 --> 00:51:33.639 they're going to argue it's bad because well, Trump did it, 940 00:51:34.519 --> 00:51:37.079 Trump apported Elon Musk. Elon Musk has done valuable work 941 00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:39.960 on behalf of trying to save our hard earned taxpayer dollars. 942 00:51:39.960 --> 00:51:42.039 Whether they came out of a lefti's pocket or a 943 00:51:42.079 --> 00:51:46.280 conservative person's pocket or anybody in between, all Americans pockets 944 00:51:46.280 --> 00:51:50.920 are paying for this wasted abuse, and somehow that's bad. 945 00:51:51.760 --> 00:51:57.800 How do you justify claiming that it's bad. 946 00:51:58.239 --> 00:52:00.400 Justicin Haskins, Senior fell at the Heartland in Stude, who 947 00:52:00.480 --> 00:52:02.639 co conducted the pole with Rastus, He said, the fact 948 00:52:02.639 --> 00:52:05.559 that a majority of Democratic voters would support imprisoning Musk 949 00:52:05.880 --> 00:52:09.000 for trying to make government more efficient is a shocking 950 00:52:09.440 --> 00:52:12.440 indictment of the modern left, which has become increasingly more 951 00:52:12.440 --> 00:52:16.400 tyrannical in recent years. Yeah, so we've reached a point 952 00:52:16.440 --> 00:52:21.000 where many Americans would rather unjustly punish innovation that fixes 953 00:52:21.039 --> 00:52:27.079 the broken systems Musk was trying to reform. This is 954 00:52:27.079 --> 00:52:28.840 the hill that they want to die on. It seems 955 00:52:28.840 --> 00:52:32.119 like an odd place to die. And I think the 956 00:52:32.159 --> 00:52:34.480 work that Elon Musk is doing it doesn't bear a 957 00:52:34.519 --> 00:52:38.239 partisan stripe. Yes, he is an appointee of Donald Trump, 958 00:52:38.239 --> 00:52:40.719 but you know that's where your fault with him should end. 959 00:52:40.800 --> 00:52:44.119 Look what he has accomplished and how you can find 960 00:52:44.119 --> 00:52:47.639 fault with it foreign exchange. You can't find any fault 961 00:52:47.639 --> 00:52:50.039 with foreign exchange. Just had another foreign exchange experience with 962 00:52:50.039 --> 00:52:52.119 a big one on the spark plugs and the brake 963 00:52:52.199 --> 00:52:55.800 fluid and oil change and cabin filter and engine filters 964 00:52:55.800 --> 00:52:58.559 and all that. And yes it was an expensive repair job, 965 00:52:58.599 --> 00:53:01.920 but I know, I'm I'm convinced I probably saved about 966 00:53:01.920 --> 00:53:03.960 one thousand dollars going to foreign Exchange and not going 967 00:53:03.960 --> 00:53:06.880 to the dealer. That's right, regular maintenance and upkeep kind 968 00:53:06.880 --> 00:53:09.159 of thing. And you know that's not covered under warranty, 969 00:53:09.199 --> 00:53:11.280 which is why my up until just about a month 970 00:53:11.360 --> 00:53:13.440 or two ago, my under warranty car has always gone 971 00:53:13.440 --> 00:53:15.440 to foreign Exchange for things like oil change, where every 972 00:53:15.440 --> 00:53:17.639 time I changed my oil there I save about two 973 00:53:17.719 --> 00:53:20.159 hundred dollars over the dealer. That's savings. And it's just 974 00:53:20.320 --> 00:53:23.920 mind boggling, isn't it. But a se certified master technicians 975 00:53:23.920 --> 00:53:25.679 working on it. In the case of oil, same oil, 976 00:53:25.760 --> 00:53:30.119 same filter, serious money savings, and they of course have 977 00:53:30.280 --> 00:53:32.880 data access to all the manufacturers technical information. Hit a 978 00:53:32.880 --> 00:53:35.039 guy in there with a hondo I told the story. 979 00:53:35.320 --> 00:53:38.079 The dealer told him that there were no codes thrown 980 00:53:38.079 --> 00:53:40.239 in spite of the fact he was saving them difficulty. Well, 981 00:53:40.920 --> 00:53:43.000 Austin and the team at Foreign Exchange West Sister had 982 00:53:43.000 --> 00:53:46.360 the exact same software Hondi uses and they hooked it 983 00:53:46.440 --> 00:53:48.480 up and Lord almighty, they were all kinds of codes 984 00:53:48.519 --> 00:53:51.719 that have been thrown. Now, why would the dealer mislead somebody, Well, 985 00:53:51.760 --> 00:53:55.400 because it was under warranty. I think it was because 986 00:53:55.400 --> 00:53:56.880 they didn't want to have to pay for the repair. 987 00:53:57.119 --> 00:53:59.400 So off he went with a list of codes to 988 00:53:59.440 --> 00:54:01.199 go back to the dealer and show it to them. 989 00:54:01.239 --> 00:54:03.039 And then they said, oh, yeah, you're right, and they 990 00:54:03.039 --> 00:54:05.559 went at it, fixed it. Something Foreign Exchange can do 991 00:54:05.639 --> 00:54:07.760 for you You get a full warranty on all the parts 992 00:54:07.800 --> 00:54:09.719 and service that they provide on your car, and it 993 00:54:09.760 --> 00:54:12.480 always is going to be your satisfaction.

Happened at Walnut 1012 00:55:03.199 --> 00:55:06.119 Hills early on Sunday morning, three point thirty am, near 1013 00:55:06.199 --> 00:55:10.639 the Marathon Gas station on Gilbert Avenue. Officer was responding 1014 00:55:10.719 --> 00:55:15.280 to another crash FOX nineteen reporting at the time of 1015 00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:17.599 the collision. The officer was inside the cruiser and was 1016 00:55:17.599 --> 00:55:20.440 subsequently taken to the hospital dispatcher said the officer is 1017 00:55:20.519 --> 00:55:24.440 expected to be okay, Thank God. Dispatcher say officers not 1018 00:55:24.599 --> 00:55:27.320 currently searching for a suspect, as the driver of the 1019 00:55:27.400 --> 00:55:30.400 other vehicle remained on the scene. Not clear whether the 1020 00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:33.400 driver is facing any charges or if anybody's taken into custody. 1021 00:55:35.599 --> 00:55:37.239 Prayers for the officer and his family. 1022 00:55:38.679 --> 00:55:38.920 First. 1023 00:55:38.960 --> 00:55:43.639 Local sightings of brewed fourteen cicadas have been spotted, according 1024 00:55:43.679 --> 00:55:46.719 to report on a free app called You Ready Cicada Safari. 1025 00:55:48.039 --> 00:55:52.119 That app created by doctor Jean Kritzky, author and biology 1026 00:55:52.199 --> 00:55:55.400 professor Mount Saint Joe University to map where certain species 1027 00:55:55.440 --> 00:55:56.639 of cicada has been reported. 1028 00:55:58.639 --> 00:55:59.239 See here. 1029 00:56:01.880 --> 00:56:03.880 At a large emergence, you'll see a million and a 1030 00:56:03.920 --> 00:56:08.639 half cicadas per acre, he said. That's acreage under trees. 1031 00:56:08.719 --> 00:56:13.079 Cordinga to doctor Kris Kritsky, that's a million and a 1032 00:56:13.119 --> 00:56:19.199 half cicadas. Let us see bottom this food, Jane. They 1033 00:56:19.239 --> 00:56:23.519 are beetless and spiders feasting on nymph cicadas. I guess 1034 00:56:23.599 --> 00:56:29.119 as we speak, the average tree will have probably forty 1035 00:56:29.400 --> 00:56:32.400 thousand eggs and it and probably only five thousand to 1036 00:56:32.480 --> 00:56:34.960 seven thousand, one thousand eggs will have nymphs come out 1037 00:56:34.960 --> 00:56:38.360 of the ground, according to doctor Krinsky, so the mortality 1038 00:56:38.440 --> 00:56:39.800 underground is very intense. 1039 00:56:40.079 --> 00:56:40.280 Said. 1040 00:56:40.320 --> 00:56:43.079 Cicadas are not necessarily past They don't hurt gardens, they 1041 00:56:43.119 --> 00:56:46.480 won't carry disease, they don't bite, But the impact the 1042 00:56:46.519 --> 00:56:48.960 ecology around them that homeowners need to know about, He said, 1043 00:56:48.960 --> 00:56:51.039 I would advise any homeowner this year, especially on the 1044 00:56:51.119 --> 00:56:54.199 east side of Cincinnati, who is planning on replacing some trees, 1045 00:56:54.320 --> 00:56:58.320 do it after the first of July. If they have 1046 00:56:58.440 --> 00:56:59.960 to be in an area where there's a large emergence, 1047 00:57:00.440 --> 00:57:02.920 all these cicadas will fly in and start laying eggs 1048 00:57:03.000 --> 00:57:05.280 in the few branches they have, and this will kill 1049 00:57:05.320 --> 00:57:09.360 the small tree. May twelfth, he generally forecast the day 1050 00:57:09.400 --> 00:57:12.280 for cicadas to start emerging from the ground or emerge 1051 00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:12.800 I guess. 1052 00:57:12.719 --> 00:57:13.679 In earnest. 1053 00:57:15.599 --> 00:57:18.599 Man arrested after hours long swat stand off in Berlin 1054 00:57:18.679 --> 00:57:22.079 and Burlington started late Saturday night at corner Major Phillip A. Rigil, 1055 00:57:23.360 --> 00:57:25.719 a spokesperson with the Boom County Sheriff's office, he said 1056 00:57:25.760 --> 00:57:28.039 twenty nine year old Kyle Wilson arrested in a charge 1057 00:57:28.039 --> 00:57:30.320 of one kind of strangulation to one kind of assault. 1058 00:57:30.960 --> 00:57:33.960 Deputies called about quarter to ten pm to the eighty 1059 00:57:34.000 --> 00:57:36.639 two hundred block of East Bend Road for domestic violence call. 1060 00:57:36.800 --> 00:57:39.559 Victim reported Wilson at assaulted ear and strangled her outside 1061 00:57:39.599 --> 00:57:44.199 the home corner. Major Rigel shared a video shared a 1062 00:57:44.280 --> 00:57:48.440 victim mentioned Wilson might have been armed. Concerned for the safety, 1063 00:57:48.480 --> 00:57:50.239 the victim quickly left the home with her children, who 1064 00:57:50.280 --> 00:57:54.239 were inside during the incident. Deputies corroborated with the victims 1065 00:57:54.280 --> 00:57:57.960 that she had injuries consisted with assault and strangulation. Deputies 1066 00:57:58.079 --> 00:58:00.760 arrived that he spent several hours trying to negot with Wilson. 1067 00:58:01.639 --> 00:58:04.920 Major Rigel said Wilson remain uncooperative. However, during this time, 1068 00:58:04.960 --> 00:58:08.400 deputies obtained and arrest warrant. Sheriff Hill called the SWAT 1069 00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:11.039 team in and everybody worked together to keep negotiations going. 1070 00:58:11.239 --> 00:58:15.079 Once they got on site, Rigil said Wilson eventually came 1071 00:58:15.239 --> 00:58:17.800 onto the porch didn't surrender, though during this period, SWAT 1072 00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:21.760 team discharge a less less lethal munition, which Rigel said 1073 00:58:21.800 --> 00:58:25.800 provided proved effective. Wilson placed underrest held the Boon County 1074 00:58:25.880 --> 00:58:28.800 Jail on a one hundred thousand dollars cash bond. 1075 00:58:31.360 --> 00:58:31.559 Huh. 1076 00:58:33.119 --> 00:58:35.719 Apparently, there was a two point eight magnitude earthquake registered 1077 00:58:35.760 --> 00:58:39.400 in central Kentucky May eleventh. Prior to that, at four 1078 00:58:39.440 --> 00:58:44.880 point one magnitude earthquake in Tennessee also felt in Kentucky, 1079 00:58:46.920 --> 00:58:50.639 so Central Kentucky's where it happened early hours May eleventh. 1080 00:58:50.719 --> 00:58:53.440 Corner of the report from the US Geological Survey. Day 1081 00:58:53.519 --> 00:58:57.519 after that, other larger earthquake in Tennessee said a late 1082 00:58:57.559 --> 00:59:00.280 of Kentucky earthquake originated at three forty one am near 1083 00:59:00.320 --> 00:59:04.519 the Gerard Jessamine County line, twenty five miles south of Lexington. 1084 00:59:05.960 --> 00:59:08.679 To the rupture eighteen and a half miles deep, which 1085 00:59:08.760 --> 00:59:11.440 is considered shallow according to reporting here on the enquire 1086 00:59:11.480 --> 00:59:15.079 Reports of weak shaking we're submitted from Lexington, Georgetown, and 1087 00:59:15.199 --> 00:59:20.079 cities in Tennessee, Ohio, North Carolina, and Georgia. No reports 1088 00:59:20.119 --> 00:59:24.559 of injuries or structural damage from the earthquake. Earthquakes under 1089 00:59:24.599 --> 00:59:27.679 five point four magnitude are only expected to cause minor damages, 1090 00:59:27.719 --> 00:59:31.760 according to research from the Michigan Technological University.

And Lord Almighty, the career opportunit unities, I 1143 01:02:00.880 --> 01:02:05.960 mean career opportunities, good paying jobs in the print economy. 1144 01:02:06.320 --> 01:02:08.719 And it's modern printing. You know, we're not talking about, 1145 01:02:08.800 --> 01:02:11.760 you know, newspapers. We're talking about printing things like circuit 1146 01:02:11.800 --> 01:02:17.840 boards using ink to conduct the electricity. So young people 1147 01:02:17.880 --> 01:02:19.760 can learn a lot at the cincinn Type in Print 1148 01:02:19.800 --> 01:02:24.159 Museum and find themselves a career. Let's see here, I thought, 1149 01:02:24.280 --> 01:02:26.760 and you know, speaking of issues of tech, I'll pivot 1150 01:02:26.800 --> 01:02:28.360 over to the tech component of this because it's something 1151 01:02:28.400 --> 01:02:30.519 I've been warning about. And oh lo and behold here 1152 01:02:30.559 --> 01:02:33.480 it is. So we start with House Democrats from New 1153 01:02:33.599 --> 01:02:36.800 Jersey went to an immigration and customs enforced detention center 1154 01:02:37.400 --> 01:02:40.000 and it evolved into a scuffle with federal agents. Now 1155 01:02:40.119 --> 01:02:42.880 they may be facing arrest. One of them did get arrested. 1156 01:02:43.119 --> 01:02:47.039 Part of the Department of Homeland Security. Lawmakers Lamanica Macuiver, 1157 01:02:47.199 --> 01:02:52.760 Bonnie Watson Coleman, and Rob Menendez broke into the Delaney 1158 01:02:52.880 --> 01:02:59.239 Hall Detention Center along with Newark Mayor Razbacara. Razbacara arrested 1159 01:02:59.280 --> 01:03:02.920 in charge with tres passing. Now authorities are claiming an 1160 01:03:02.960 --> 01:03:06.280 ICE agent was assaulted in the confrontation and that it 1161 01:03:06.400 --> 01:03:09.440 was caught on camera. Noticed my emphasis there on that 1162 01:03:09.679 --> 01:03:15.039 component of the reporting. Department Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia 1163 01:03:15.119 --> 01:03:18.719 McLaughlin said, if it was a typical US citizen and 1164 01:03:18.760 --> 01:03:21.639 they tried to storm into a detention fill facility that's 1165 01:03:21.679 --> 01:03:25.599 housing dangerous criminals, or any person at all, they would 1166 01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:28.639 be arrested. Just because you're a member of Congress or 1167 01:03:28.719 --> 01:03:30.719 just because you're a public official does not mean you're 1168 01:03:30.719 --> 01:03:34.800 above the law. Giver escalated her claims during a press conference, 1169 01:03:34.840 --> 01:03:38.559 claiming she was assaulted by multiple ICE officers while regional 1170 01:03:38.639 --> 01:03:44.880 directors of ICE watched it happen. DHS footage posted on 1171 01:03:45.079 --> 01:03:48.320 X on Saturday appeared to show mcgiver barreling unprovoked through 1172 01:03:48.320 --> 01:03:54.559 a law enforcement near the gate. DHS caption watch US 1173 01:03:54.639 --> 01:03:59.039 Congresswoman Laura Lamonica mcgiver, wearing red blazer, storms the gate 1174 01:03:59.079 --> 01:04:04.440 of Delaney Haul Attemp Center, assaulting an ICE agent. Watson 1175 01:04:04.519 --> 01:04:09.239 Coleman accused an ICE agent of shoving her, claiming to 1176 01:04:09.280 --> 01:04:14.800 be exercising or oversight authority as members of Congress, DHS 1177 01:04:14.880 --> 01:04:16.639 did confirm that many of the folks that are being 1178 01:04:16.719 --> 01:04:20.719 helded in that detention center are murderers, terrorist child rapists, 1179 01:04:20.719 --> 01:04:22.880 and MS thirteen gang members, which makes you scratch your 1180 01:04:22.880 --> 01:04:25.199 head and wonder why our elected officials, who are supposed 1181 01:04:25.239 --> 01:04:27.920 to be re representing the interests of their constituents, would 1182 01:04:27.960 --> 01:04:31.760 care so much about the rapists and murderers and other 1183 01:04:33.119 --> 01:04:39.239 well criminals that are being housed in the facility. They 1184 01:04:39.280 --> 01:04:42.199 also accused Elina Habba, us attorney for New Jersey, of 1185 01:04:42.360 --> 01:04:48.960 repeatedly making interaccurate, inflammatory, and unfair public statements. Haba, the 1186 01:04:49.079 --> 01:04:52.079 US attorney for New Jersey, wrote on Friday, the mayor 1187 01:04:52.079 --> 01:04:55.840 of Newark, Rosbakara, committed trespass and ignored multiple warnings from 1188 01:04:55.840 --> 01:04:59.000 Homeland security investigations to remove himself from the ICE Detention 1189 01:04:59.159 --> 01:05:04.320 Center in New York. His willingly chosen distant, he willingly 1190 01:05:04.440 --> 01:05:06.840 chosen to disregard the law that will not stand in 1191 01:05:06.880 --> 01:05:09.559 this state. He's been taken into custody, so they're now 1192 01:05:09.639 --> 01:05:14.239 talking about maybe arresting the other three elected officials. Here's 1193 01:05:14.239 --> 01:05:16.119 where I thought, this is where the tech part comes 1194 01:05:16.159 --> 01:05:19.480 in and something I've commented on before. Bonnie Watson, one 1195 01:05:19.480 --> 01:05:23.920 of the ones that broke in, claimed on Saturday that 1196 01:05:24.679 --> 01:05:29.199 ICE officials would use in his word or her word, 1197 01:05:29.320 --> 01:05:32.800 manufactured footage to make it appear as though law enforcement 1198 01:05:32.920 --> 01:05:35.920 agents were body slammed during the arrest of Newark Mayor 1199 01:05:36.039 --> 01:05:36.719 roj Pacara. 1200 01:05:39.760 --> 01:05:40.000 Hmm. 1201 01:05:40.880 --> 01:05:43.440 Bonnie Watson Coleman said, we were there for a tour. 1202 01:05:43.639 --> 01:05:46.559 ICE was giving us the run around. We finally got 1203 01:05:46.599 --> 01:05:48.880 into a facility, we heard some noise, We came out. 1204 01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:51.280 We found that the mayor was there, and they were 1205 01:05:51.679 --> 01:05:54.440 and ICE was having conversations with him. They asked him 1206 01:05:54.440 --> 01:05:56.519 to lead the facility. He left the facility. Oh makes 1207 01:05:56.559 --> 01:05:59.599 it paint such a vanilla picture, doesn't it? The host 1208 01:05:59.679 --> 01:06:02.239 on the show, So your interpretation, you know, your use 1209 01:06:02.280 --> 01:06:04.840 of words is very different from the spokesperson for DHS, 1210 01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:07.480 who was on CNN. She used the words body slamming, 1211 01:06:08.199 --> 01:06:10.159 saying that the major and the mayor rather and other 1212 01:06:10.239 --> 01:06:13.000 members of Congress were body slamming, and we're being rough 1213 01:06:13.159 --> 01:06:17.760 with ICE officials. You're disputing that response to Watson Coleman, Yeah, 1214 01:06:17.920 --> 01:06:21.679 so how ridiculous does that sound? There are two hundred pounds. 1215 01:06:21.719 --> 01:06:24.400 We've got about thirty five pounds worth of stuff around them, 1216 01:06:24.440 --> 01:06:26.559 including a gun on their arms. Can tell you what 1217 01:06:26.719 --> 01:06:30.360 I think about what they're saying. President of the United States, 1218 01:06:30.480 --> 01:06:32.840 here we go, pivoting over to Trump. President of the 1219 01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:35.440 United States opens his mouth every day and lies. He 1220 01:06:35.559 --> 01:06:39.440 can can't breathe without lying. He's given permission to his 1221 01:06:39.639 --> 01:06:42.280 cabinet and those who work for him to lie. And 1222 01:06:42.480 --> 01:06:43.880 she's lying too. 1223 01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:45.440 Hmmm. 1224 01:06:47.760 --> 01:06:51.440 Spokes are the interviewers. The d spokesperson I mentioned who 1225 01:06:51.519 --> 01:06:54.039 was on the air earlier, is saying that the videotape, 1226 01:06:55.039 --> 01:06:58.239 the body cam that would be released later would show 1227 01:06:58.360 --> 01:07:01.159 the violent nature of the mayor and others body slamming. 1228 01:07:02.760 --> 01:07:05.039 We don't see that on this videotape, Watson Coleman. 1229 01:07:05.280 --> 01:07:05.719 Here we are. 1230 01:07:07.000 --> 01:07:08.920 This is going to be the default defense for anybody 1231 01:07:08.960 --> 01:07:13.159 who's being accused of a crime. No, if there's any 1232 01:07:13.360 --> 01:07:16.559 such body, any kind of footage, it is footage that 1233 01:07:16.800 --> 01:07:20.519 is manufactured for this purpose. Because I said it before 1234 01:07:20.639 --> 01:07:24.599 and I'll say it again, they are lying. So Trump 1235 01:07:24.599 --> 01:07:27.480 administration is incapable of telling any form of truth whatsoever. 1236 01:07:27.679 --> 01:07:30.480 Ergo anybody within the ministration who has evidence of a crime. 1237 01:07:30.920 --> 01:07:33.599 Don't believe your own eyes. They made it up in 1238 01:07:33.679 --> 01:07:36.239 the world of artificial intelligence. Like I've been warning, this 1239 01:07:36.400 --> 01:07:38.840 is where I see the breakdown in the criminal justice system. 1240 01:07:39.360 --> 01:07:41.719 Reasonable doubt. You go to court and you claim it's fake, 1241 01:07:41.840 --> 01:07:43.719 even though you have no evidence that it's fake. It's 1242 01:07:43.760 --> 01:07:46.559 hard to tell AI created footage from real footage, But 1243 01:07:46.719 --> 01:07:47.119 there it is. 1244 01:07:48.079 --> 01:07:48.159 Now. 1245 01:07:48.280 --> 01:07:50.679 My retort to that would be, what of the other 1246 01:07:50.880 --> 01:07:53.360 people who are witnesses there?

Monday Monday with Brian James Jato 1273 01:09:14.399 --> 01:09:17.239 five preceded by Christopher Smithman joined the program every Monday 1274 01:09:17.279 --> 01:09:21.000 at seven twenty and doctor Robert Loan, which what will 1275 01:09:21.000 --> 01:09:24.039 prove to be a very interesting last empower you seminar 1276 01:09:24.119 --> 01:09:27.720 for the spring semester injuries from the COVID nineteen vaccine. 1277 01:09:27.760 --> 01:09:29.399 He'll be on the program at eight forty to talk 1278 01:09:29.439 --> 01:09:32.319 about that. Get a little tease of information. You'll be 1279 01:09:32.399 --> 01:09:38.159 finding out which injuries did COVID mRNA vaccine cause, of course, 1280 01:09:38.199 --> 01:09:44.079 the Trump administration launched Operation Warp Speed. Public didn't understand 1281 01:09:44.119 --> 01:09:48.640 the COVID vaccines being developed were not traditional attenuated virus vaccines. 1282 01:09:49.399 --> 01:09:54.479 It's experimental mRNA biotechnology. And we've learned a lot over 1283 01:09:54.560 --> 01:09:59.159 the years about the significant downside that I've had quite 1284 01:09:59.199 --> 01:10:00.920 a few guests on the more should have talk about 1285 01:10:00.920 --> 01:10:04.600 the research they were doing and people who were metaphorically 1286 01:10:04.680 --> 01:10:07.439 crucified in the medical field lost their license because they 1287 01:10:07.520 --> 01:10:09.520 spoke truth to power and that what they were saying 1288 01:10:09.560 --> 01:10:15.720 at the time ends up being accurate. Just disturbing. I 1289 01:10:15.760 --> 01:10:17.680 feel like you're being lying to. I think there may 1290 01:10:17.720 --> 01:10:22.279 be something to that real quick here, I thought this 1291 01:10:22.399 --> 01:10:25.359 was rather interesting. If your state is having a budget issue, 1292 01:10:25.439 --> 01:10:29.960 then sue Meta if you've got a law that protects 1293 01:10:30.000 --> 01:10:33.000 privacy for the state residence. Google agreed to pay one 1294 01:10:33.199 --> 01:10:36.920 point four billion dollars to the State of Texas to 1295 01:10:37.000 --> 01:10:40.279 settle allegations that they violated the data privacy rights of 1296 01:10:40.840 --> 01:10:45.159 State of Texas residents. Announcement by Attorney General Ken Paxon 1297 01:10:45.199 --> 01:10:48.880 on Friday. Fax And sued Google in twenty two for 1298 01:10:49.079 --> 01:10:52.359 unlawfully tracking and collecting users private data, something Dave hat 1299 01:10:52.479 --> 01:10:55.039 Or warns about all the time. Do not use Meta 1300 01:10:55.119 --> 01:10:57.960 products period into story. That's advised from Dave Hatter Take 1301 01:10:58.000 --> 01:11:00.800 it or leave it. This is kind of proof of 1302 01:11:00.840 --> 01:11:03.039 what Day's been talking about for years on this program, 1303 01:11:03.680 --> 01:11:06.399 Tourny General said. The settlement, which covers allegations in two 1304 01:11:06.479 --> 01:11:10.960 separate lawsuits against the search engine giant, dwarf the past 1305 01:11:11.000 --> 01:11:15.359 settlements by other states with Google for similar violations at 1306 01:11:15.479 --> 01:11:18.159 ten months. This settlement ten months after Packston obtained one 1307 01:11:18.199 --> 01:11:21.399 point four billion dollars settlement for Texas from Meta, parent 1308 01:11:21.479 --> 01:11:24.199 company of Facebook and Instagram to resolve claims of an 1309 01:11:24.199 --> 01:11:27.720 authorized use of biometric data by users on the social 1310 01:11:27.800 --> 01:11:32.000 media platforms, saying in Texas, big tech is not above 1311 01:11:32.039 --> 01:11:36.000 the law. That for years Google secretly track people's movements, 1312 01:11:36.119 --> 01:11:40.279 private searches, and even their voice prints and facial geometry 1313 01:11:40.359 --> 01:11:43.680 through their products and services, so that I fought back 1314 01:11:43.760 --> 01:11:46.920 in one calling it a major win for Texans privacy 1315 01:11:47.720 --> 01:11:50.319 and tells the companies that they will pay for abusing 1316 01:11:50.640 --> 01:11:54.960 the trust. And I always puzzle over this. Do you 1317 01:11:55.000 --> 01:11:56.880 think any of the residents of the state of Texas 1318 01:11:56.920 --> 01:11:58.720 are going to get a slice of the one point 1319 01:11:58.800 --> 01:12:01.880 four billion dollars since it was individuals privacy rights that 1320 01:12:01.920 --> 01:12:05.600 were violated. I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you. 1321 01:12:07.279 --> 01:12:10.000 So anyway, that's a nice windfall for the state of Texas. 1322 01:12:10.119 --> 01:12:12.640 Maybe taking maybe maybe they'll just offer some tax relief 1323 01:12:12.680 --> 01:12:15.640 for the Texans. That wouldn't count on that either. Six 1324 01:12:15.760 --> 01:12:18.119 fifty six. If you have KRC the Talk Station, don't 1325 01:12:18.159 --> 01:12:19.439 go away.

If you've got KRCV talk station, hope 1335 01:12:53.359 --> 01:12:57.000 you're having a happy Monday again, delated Happy Mother's Day 1336 01:12:57.000 --> 01:12:57.800 with all the moms out there. 1337 01:12:57.840 --> 01:12:58.880 Hope you had a wonderful weekend. 1338 01:12:58.960 --> 01:13:01.840 Spend some time with mom or remembered your mom if 1339 01:13:02.000 --> 01:13:02.279 you no. 1340 01:13:02.359 --> 01:13:03.640 Longer have your mom in your world. 1341 01:13:03.920 --> 01:13:06.319 Five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty eight hundred eight 1342 01:13:06.319 --> 01:13:08.159 two three talk pound five fifty on eight and T 1343 01:13:08.279 --> 01:13:10.000 phones if you care to call, maybe steer the direction 1344 01:13:10.079 --> 01:13:10.720 of the conversation. 1345 01:13:10.840 --> 01:13:11.399 I don't mind that. 1346 01:13:11.479 --> 01:13:14.159 Christopher Smithvan's I'm coming up in the next segment seven 1347 01:13:14.279 --> 01:13:17.079 twenty for the East Smithervan every Monday at seven twenty. 1348 01:13:17.760 --> 01:13:19.880 In the meantime, big story this morning, and it's really 1349 01:13:19.920 --> 01:13:24.239 impacted the market. Futures going crazy this morning. Uh US 1350 01:13:24.359 --> 01:13:28.720 and China agreed to the substantial tariff cuts periminary agreement freezes. 1351 01:13:29.640 --> 01:13:31.880 The Trump tariffs are going to go down to ten percent, 1352 01:13:33.119 --> 01:13:35.479 although the twenty percent tariff on China is because of 1353 01:13:35.520 --> 01:13:37.439 the fentanyl trade that's going to stay in place. But 1354 01:13:37.520 --> 01:13:39.479 the balance of them, they get rid of the one 1355 01:13:39.520 --> 01:13:41.920 hundred and twenty five percent tariff, so down to ten percent, 1356 01:13:42.000 --> 01:13:47.720 which is the default tariff on all countries, I mean 1357 01:13:48.039 --> 01:13:51.399 pending some negotiation to resolve them further. The one hundred 1358 01:13:51.399 --> 01:13:53.920 and seventy countries out there, and the administration is haggling 1359 01:13:54.039 --> 01:13:56.319 with them. Of course, we edited an agreement with Britain 1360 01:13:56.399 --> 01:13:58.560 last week, which is a great milestone to be crossed. 1361 01:13:59.479 --> 01:14:01.880 So if you build them, they will come to the table. 1362 01:14:01.960 --> 01:14:03.800 I guess that's the idea and Trump. That's what Trump 1363 01:14:03.800 --> 01:14:07.680 predicted would happen. So in the meantime, if you are 1364 01:14:07.800 --> 01:14:09.520 invested in the market, it looks like a good day 1365 01:14:09.560 --> 01:14:12.279 to having been invested in the market, and they've been 1366 01:14:12.399 --> 01:14:16.279 rising all morning. Futures as a consequence of this revelation. 1367 01:14:17.520 --> 01:14:21.079 The Nasdaq is up four percent, a little over four 1368 01:14:21.159 --> 01:14:26.560 percent this morning, the Dow up two point four five percent, 1369 01:14:26.800 --> 01:14:29.399 and the S and P five hundred north of three. 1370 01:14:29.560 --> 01:14:33.960 So you get three point one percent futures increase, which 1371 01:14:34.000 --> 01:14:39.279 according to the reporting, takes us back and we get 1372 01:14:39.319 --> 01:14:42.840 all the gains that we lost after Trump announced the 1373 01:14:42.920 --> 01:14:47.880 tariffs in April. So what we lost then we recovered 1374 01:14:48.119 --> 01:14:50.880 is April second, on Liberation Day, when the tariffs sent 1375 01:14:50.960 --> 01:14:53.239 to the market's into a well bit of a tail spend. 1376 01:14:53.800 --> 01:14:56.760 So that's positive information, and you know there may be 1377 01:14:56.880 --> 01:14:58.279 some light at the end of the tunnel here, so 1378 01:14:58.520 --> 01:15:00.920 keep your fingers crossed. Cooler head prevail and we end 1379 01:15:01.000 --> 01:15:02.640 up with a better deal, which is all Trump was 1380 01:15:02.680 --> 01:15:05.000 looking for in the first instance. And the other big 1381 01:15:05.079 --> 01:15:07.039 story this morning, and we'll wait for the executive order 1382 01:15:07.079 --> 01:15:08.720 to be signed, but he announced yesterday he would be 1383 01:15:08.800 --> 01:15:12.000 signing one to lower pharmaceutical prices here in the United States. 1384 01:15:12.119 --> 01:15:16.000 He said almost immediately, thirty to eighty percent reduction, because 1385 01:15:16.039 --> 01:15:20.520 he's implementing what he's calling the Most Favored Nations policy. Now, 1386 01:15:20.520 --> 01:15:22.199 all the other countries in the world pay a fraction 1387 01:15:22.279 --> 01:15:24.680 of what we pay for pharmaceuticals. It's always been argued that, 1388 01:15:24.760 --> 01:15:26.680 you know, we have to pay the cost of research 1389 01:15:26.760 --> 01:15:30.000 and development. Without the United States pharmaceutical prices being so high, 1390 01:15:30.319 --> 01:15:32.760 no one would have these valuable drugs. But how is 1391 01:15:32.800 --> 01:15:35.199 it that other nations can negotiate a sweetheart deal and 1392 01:15:35.840 --> 01:15:38.680 to the exclusion of the United States. Well, Trump's seeking 1393 01:15:38.680 --> 01:15:40.119 to put an end to that, and I know there's 1394 01:15:40.159 --> 01:15:43.760 going to at least I anticipate litigation. I will be 1395 01:15:43.840 --> 01:15:46.920 instituting a most Favored Nations policy, whereby the United States 1396 01:15:47.000 --> 01:15:49.560 will pay the same price as the nation that pays 1397 01:15:49.640 --> 01:15:53.119 the lowest price anywhere in the world. Our country will 1398 01:15:53.159 --> 01:15:55.520 finally be treated fairly, and our citizens' health care costs 1399 01:15:55.520 --> 01:15:59.359 will be reduced by numbers never thought even, numbers never 1400 01:15:59.399 --> 01:16:02.239 even thought of before, pardon me. Additionally, on top of 1401 01:16:02.279 --> 01:16:05.920 everything else, the US will save trillions of dollars. Well, 1402 01:16:05.960 --> 01:16:09.760 it's gonna be great if it works out. And again, 1403 01:16:09.800 --> 01:16:11.239 all morning, I've been sort of commenting on how the 1404 01:16:11.279 --> 01:16:13.199 Democrats going to react to this, because you know, evil 1405 01:16:13.239 --> 01:16:15.439 Orange Man. If Trump does it, it's bad. But this 1406 01:16:15.600 --> 01:16:20.279 is good for everybody if it works out. And it's 1407 01:16:20.319 --> 01:16:22.960 gonna result in other countries having to pay more for pharmaceuticals. 1408 01:16:23.039 --> 01:16:25.000 It has been noted in the reporting. So they're gonna 1409 01:16:25.039 --> 01:16:26.880 have to get their profits somewhere. There's no way they're 1410 01:16:26.880 --> 01:16:29.000 going to walk away from it. Maybe they'll start charging 1411 01:16:29.079 --> 01:16:32.520 maybe put my friends in Canada more for pharmaceuticals. Apparently 1412 01:16:32.560 --> 01:16:34.600 you can get a sweetheart deal by getting your pharmaceuticals 1413 01:16:34.640 --> 01:16:36.279 through a Canadian pharmacy. 1414 01:16:37.119 --> 01:16:37.680 How is that. 1415 01:16:39.560 --> 01:16:43.680 We'll see how it works out. I'm still the Democrat 1416 01:16:43.760 --> 01:16:45.720 reaction is really what I'm waiting for on that one. 1417 01:16:46.199 --> 01:16:48.239 But I wanted to give props to my friends in Indiana. 1418 01:16:49.920 --> 01:16:53.199 I saw this op ed piece, and you know, charting 1419 01:16:53.319 --> 01:16:56.600 the path for maybe states like Ohio to give students 1420 01:16:56.840 --> 01:17:01.439 choice in education, which does boost their overall scoring. It's 1421 01:17:01.520 --> 01:17:04.560 better education when you have a choice. Indiana a leader 1422 01:17:04.760 --> 01:17:07.600 is Wall Street Journal op ed piece. Indian has been 1423 01:17:07.640 --> 01:17:09.720 a leader in expanding a school choice for K through 1424 01:17:09.760 --> 01:17:14.079 twelve students, and better student achievement results have followed. Now, 1425 01:17:14.119 --> 01:17:17.239 Indiana lawmakers are building on that success by expanding access 1426 01:17:17.399 --> 01:17:21.239 to private and charter schools. Governor Mike Brown last week 1427 01:17:21.319 --> 01:17:24.960 sign a budget that opens school choice to every Hoosier 1428 01:17:25.199 --> 01:17:29.760 girl and boy. State's voucher program already generous, covering about 1429 01:17:29.800 --> 01:17:32.520 six thousand dollars of private school tuition for most families 1430 01:17:32.520 --> 01:17:35.199 earning less than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year, 1431 01:17:35.279 --> 01:17:40.600 the new law eliminates the limits beginning next year. Like 1432 01:17:40.680 --> 01:17:42.960 traditional public schools, the voucher program will no longer turn 1433 01:17:43.000 --> 01:17:47.039 away students based on their family's income. Lawmakers also putting 1434 01:17:47.239 --> 01:17:50.560 charter schools on par with traditional district schools by giving 1435 01:17:50.680 --> 01:17:56.239 charters full access to local property taxes. Journal observes it 1436 01:17:56.319 --> 01:17:58.920 today's school districts in nearly every state have a different 1437 01:17:59.039 --> 01:18:01.880 a direct claim on property tax money, while charters are 1438 01:18:01.960 --> 01:18:06.359 funded through special appropriations. Indiana's reforms will let nearly all 1439 01:18:06.479 --> 01:18:11.800 tax dollars flow or follow students to whichever school they 1440 01:18:11.920 --> 01:18:15.720 choose by twenty twenty nine. Let the money follow the child. 1441 01:18:16.600 --> 01:18:19.479 That's what I have been advocating for for a long time. 1442 01:18:20.000 --> 01:18:22.680 These reforms may save school choice from being smothered down 1443 01:18:22.720 --> 01:18:25.840 the road. Indiana first launch vouchers and expanded charters during 1444 01:18:25.880 --> 01:18:29.119 a period of an enthusiastic reform under Governor Mitch Daniels 1445 01:18:29.159 --> 01:18:32.600 in twenty tens. Mister Brown pledged to push further during 1446 01:18:32.640 --> 01:18:35.239 his campaign last year, but even in a Republican led state, 1447 01:18:35.279 --> 01:18:39.199 these programs face pressure when funding gets tight. The private 1448 01:18:39.239 --> 01:18:42.399 and charter schools tend have stronger records for student achievement. 1449 01:18:42.520 --> 01:18:48.199 Traditional public schools have entrenched constituencies read unions that lobby 1450 01:18:48.399 --> 01:18:53.279 for scarce funds. Allowing more students to attend non traditional 1451 01:18:53.319 --> 01:18:56.319 schools will increase support for choice. More than twenty percent 1452 01:18:56.359 --> 01:18:59.560 of the state students attend a school other than the 1453 01:18:59.600 --> 01:19:02.520 public one for which they're zoned, and that shift is 1454 01:19:02.560 --> 01:19:06.439 accelerated since twenty twenty, and here you go. The difference 1455 01:19:06.520 --> 01:19:11.880 for students is clear. Indiana eighth graders ranked sixth in 1456 01:19:12.000 --> 01:19:14.439 the nation in reading scores in the twenty twenty four 1457 01:19:14.560 --> 01:19:18.279 National Assessment of Education Progress, up from nineteenth in twenty 1458 01:19:18.359 --> 01:19:22.600 twenty two. Fourth graders in the state jumped eleven spots 1459 01:19:22.640 --> 01:19:26.359 in the same assessment now are also ranked sixth nationwide. 1460 01:19:28.840 --> 01:19:32.479 Delayed school choice reforms almost collapse in the legislator. State 1461 01:19:32.600 --> 01:19:35.359 senators objected to lifting the voucher limits, afraid that the 1462 01:19:35.439 --> 01:19:38.479 one hundred and sixty seventy million dollar cost of expansion 1463 01:19:38.479 --> 01:19:42.880 would strain the budget, but House Speaker Todd Houston struck 1464 01:19:42.920 --> 01:19:45.159 a deal to delay the change the next year and 1465 01:19:45.279 --> 01:19:48.279 to reduce funding for programs such as virtual education to 1466 01:19:48.359 --> 01:19:52.760 offset the cost. The result from expanded choice should be 1467 01:19:52.880 --> 01:19:56.960 enough to protect it from political attacks, but the opponents 1468 01:19:57.039 --> 01:20:00.680 never sleep. The key to choice, the key to choice 1469 01:20:00.720 --> 01:20:03.439 success in the long run, is letting the money flow 1470 01:20:03.720 --> 01:20:07.439 that follow the child, no matter the school, public or private. 1471 01:20:07.560 --> 01:20:11.560 Indiana has taken another step toward that ideal, and I 1472 01:20:11.680 --> 01:20:14.720 love that point that they observe. You know, the expanded 1473 01:20:14.760 --> 01:20:17.520 school choice should be enough to protect it from political attacks. 1474 01:20:17.560 --> 01:20:22.680 Political attacks from who Now, I would say a family, 1475 01:20:22.800 --> 01:20:26.000 regardless of political strife, might embrace this as a concept. 1476 01:20:27.039 --> 01:20:29.479 You get the benefit of the six thousand dollars, You 1477 01:20:29.640 --> 01:20:31.800 get better schools. At least you get to choose what 1478 01:20:31.920 --> 01:20:34.159 schools your children go to. Maybe you have a farm 1479 01:20:34.239 --> 01:20:37.760 feeling and like the public schools your children attend, go there, 1480 01:20:38.000 --> 01:20:41.479 send them There nothing wrong with that if you're satisfied. 1481 01:20:42.159 --> 01:20:44.720 But if you're in a district that isn't up to snuff, 1482 01:20:44.760 --> 01:20:49.479 where the children are behind academically, then you might want 1483 01:20:49.479 --> 01:20:52.800 an option. Republican House, Democrat House. 1484 01:20:52.880 --> 01:20:56.640 You have an option. So who's the only people standing 1485 01:20:56.680 --> 01:20:57.159 in your way? 1486 01:20:57.359 --> 01:20:57.399 This? 1487 01:20:57.600 --> 01:21:04.159 Teachers' unions. The it's going to force competition, It's going 1488 01:21:04.199 --> 01:21:05.760 to force them to step up to the place to 1489 01:21:05.920 --> 01:21:09.279 improve these reading and mathematics scores. But you know what, 1490 01:21:09.560 --> 01:21:12.039 Indiana number six in the nation. I consider that pretty 1491 01:21:12.079 --> 01:21:14.239 gosh darn good. And you should all be proud of yourselves, 1492 01:21:14.319 --> 01:21:15.760 and you should be very happy you live in a 1493 01:21:15.840 --> 01:21:20.880 state where education choice is now established and enshrined in law. 1494 01:21:21.880 --> 01:21:25.159 So I'm jealous on behalf of all highlands here. Maybe 1495 01:21:25.199 --> 01:21:26.720 we can go in that direction, and maybe we can 1496 01:21:26.800 --> 01:21:28.920 start calling our elected officials and say, hey, did you 1497 01:21:28.960 --> 01:21:32.479 see what's going on in Indiana? Their scores improved dramatically. 1498 01:21:33.720 --> 01:21:38.880 The money's following the children, the citizens are pleased. Seven 1499 01:21:39.000 --> 01:21:43.600 fifteen fifty five KRC the talk station Bud Herbert Motors. 1500 01:21:43.640 --> 01:21:45.239 Don't go down the world to the box store to 1501 01:21:45.279 --> 01:21:47.319 get your next lawn equipment.

You have no question about that. Great, wonderful. 1556 01:24:16.279 --> 01:24:18.800 Absolutely. Well, let me just jump in and say, you know, 1557 01:24:18.960 --> 01:24:22.640 this is National Police Weekend. There's a great tie into 1558 01:24:22.720 --> 01:24:24.920 all of this because this is an opportunity for us 1559 01:24:25.039 --> 01:24:29.680 to to really lift up all peace officers across the 1560 01:24:29.800 --> 01:24:33.119 United States of America, and I certainly have been one 1561 01:24:33.119 --> 01:24:36.199 of the keynote speakers down at UH down at Fountain 1562 01:24:36.239 --> 01:24:36.840 Square on. 1563 01:24:37.000 --> 01:24:38.119 Two or three occasions. 1564 01:24:38.920 --> 01:24:42.560 But tying into this notion that you might have the 1565 01:24:42.640 --> 01:24:47.720 black panthers in town downtown protesting ie for an eye 1566 01:24:48.239 --> 01:24:51.199 and tooth for a tooth during this week in particular, 1567 01:24:51.319 --> 01:24:55.039 and on the backdrop of of of Sheriff Larry Henderson 1568 01:24:55.159 --> 01:25:01.319 being murdered being assassinated by someone, is absolutely outrageous and 1569 01:25:01.359 --> 01:25:04.760 over the top. I don't even know Brian Thomas where 1570 01:25:04.800 --> 01:25:09.279 they're even coming from. Because Sheriff Larry Henderson had nothing 1571 01:25:09.439 --> 01:25:13.560 to do with what occurred between a Cincinnati police officer 1572 01:25:14.000 --> 01:25:16.439 and a young man who had a gun running from 1573 01:25:16.439 --> 01:25:19.279 a car car having been involved in stealing a car. 1574 01:25:19.520 --> 01:25:21.960 I don't know what Sheriff Larry Henderson has to do 1575 01:25:22.039 --> 01:25:24.680 with it. So I don't understand these social posts of 1576 01:25:24.920 --> 01:25:27.920 I four an eye in two for tooth. This was 1577 01:25:28.000 --> 01:25:31.560 a man who was a dad, a husband, and uncle. 1578 01:25:32.760 --> 01:25:35.359 Sounds like I've he heard he was a foster parent. 1579 01:25:36.279 --> 01:25:39.479 He had retired after thirty three years. He was out doing, 1580 01:25:39.880 --> 01:25:44.319 you know, a traffic for the University of Cincinnati's ceremony 1581 01:25:44.439 --> 01:25:47.680 for their graduation. What did he have to do with 1582 01:25:47.760 --> 01:25:50.720 any of it? And I don't understand the connection. I 1583 01:25:51.199 --> 01:25:53.439 really don't. Is one of those things that I sit 1584 01:25:53.560 --> 01:25:57.119 back Brian Thomas and go there is something missing missing 1585 01:25:57.199 --> 01:26:00.119 in our leadership, because we have leadership in Cincinnati that 1586 01:26:00.239 --> 01:26:03.760 is quiet. We have leadership in the county that is quiet. 1587 01:26:04.239 --> 01:26:06.520 What they should be doing, as a former vice mayor 1588 01:26:06.560 --> 01:26:11.039 of Cincinnati, they should have resolutions already submitted on the 1589 01:26:11.159 --> 01:26:14.600 Council on the calendar, going through committee and voting on Wednesday, 1590 01:26:15.119 --> 01:26:20.159 honoring Sheriff Larry Henderson. And this should be coordinated with 1591 01:26:20.600 --> 01:26:24.319 the three county commissioners. This should already be happening. If 1592 01:26:24.319 --> 01:26:27.560 we had a functioning body that had any cahunas, had 1593 01:26:27.640 --> 01:26:31.000 any sense of humanity, these things would already be happening. 1594 01:26:31.000 --> 01:26:32.960 Because people will ask me, well, what do you think 1595 01:26:33.039 --> 01:26:35.159 council and the mayor, and what do you think the 1596 01:26:35.239 --> 01:26:39.000 county commissioners could do? They could introduce resolutions because they 1597 01:26:39.119 --> 01:26:42.560 introduced them about Israel and Hamad all the time. They've 1598 01:26:42.600 --> 01:26:44.840 been doing it for the last year. So I'm saying, 1599 01:26:44.880 --> 01:26:47.720 why wouldn't you go name a street? Why wouldn't you 1600 01:26:47.800 --> 01:26:51.199 be naming a highway, Why wouldn't you be honoring the family, 1601 01:26:51.479 --> 01:26:53.880 Why would you allow the Black Panthers to come in 1602 01:26:53.960 --> 01:26:58.600 town protesting your downtown. And you have no reaction as 1603 01:26:58.640 --> 01:27:01.680 a body in some part of this family where this 1604 01:27:01.920 --> 01:27:06.239 man gave us life, his service, his whole everything for us, 1605 01:27:06.640 --> 01:27:09.520 and you have a council and a mayor and even 1606 01:27:09.560 --> 01:27:12.520 the county commissioners who are all quiet on the issue. 1607 01:27:12.720 --> 01:27:15.439 So that's where I'll start, and I'm sharing with everybody. 1608 01:27:15.600 --> 01:27:18.800 Please don't ever ask me or say what could they do? 1609 01:27:19.439 --> 01:27:22.119 What the body could do is speak this week, this 1610 01:27:22.319 --> 01:27:25.199 week and say we honor this man, and do it 1611 01:27:25.279 --> 01:27:28.359 in a way that you're not putting any disclaimers that 1612 01:27:28.479 --> 01:27:30.920 you're talking about the life of the other child or 1613 01:27:30.960 --> 01:27:34.159 what happened in the city. Honor the sheriff who got 1614 01:27:34.319 --> 01:27:38.600 run over doing nothing and wasn't involved with anything. Good 1615 01:27:38.680 --> 01:27:39.359 place to start. 1616 01:27:39.560 --> 01:27:40.600 It is good place to start. 1617 01:27:40.640 --> 01:27:42.840 And of course it just reflects the broad brush perception 1618 01:27:42.960 --> 01:27:46.439 of the Black Panthers that anyone in any uniform that 1619 01:27:46.560 --> 01:27:49.000 is a public servant in terms of law enforcement are 1620 01:27:49.039 --> 01:27:51.199 treated equally. They're all the same, They paint with the 1621 01:27:51.239 --> 01:27:53.359 same broad brush all of them are racist, all of 1622 01:27:53.399 --> 01:27:55.840 them need to be defunded, and of course the city 1623 01:27:55.880 --> 01:27:57.960 council has been. I mean they're on record as either 1624 01:27:58.000 --> 01:28:02.800 bring quiet and silent in connection with the argument about 1625 01:28:02.840 --> 01:28:06.000 defunding police or supporting the idea that police is somehow 1626 01:28:06.119 --> 01:28:09.600 institutionally racist and defunding them was a good idea. So 1627 01:28:10.199 --> 01:28:11.880 it will be a shift in direction for them to 1628 01:28:11.920 --> 01:28:15.039 actually come out in favor of law enforcement. Under the circumstances, 1629 01:28:15.359 --> 01:28:18.359 I can't see any other way to approach it other 1630 01:28:18.399 --> 01:28:20.720 than what you just pointed out. At least a resolution, 1631 01:28:20.920 --> 01:28:23.920 although having no weight of law or anything, would at 1632 01:28:24.039 --> 01:28:27.800 least relate to a local issue of significant importance and 1633 01:28:27.880 --> 01:28:31.239 that support a local law enforcement. Let's bring Christopher back. 1634 01:28:31.279 --> 01:28:33.039 I know he's got more on his mind for this 1635 01:28:33.199 --> 01:28:37.800 morning's smither Vent a Monday talking with Christopher Smithman in 1636 01:28:37.840 --> 01:28:41.199 this smither vent, Christopher, what else is on your mind? 1637 01:28:42.680 --> 01:28:42.920 Brother? 1638 01:28:43.000 --> 01:28:46.720 I'm going to be a little partisan this morning. I 1639 01:28:46.800 --> 01:28:49.319 don't know what is going on with the Democratic Party. 1640 01:28:49.840 --> 01:28:54.439 I'm lost in their efforts to provide leadership for our country, 1641 01:28:54.880 --> 01:28:56.960 and so, like you and I've been listening to your show, 1642 01:28:57.399 --> 01:29:01.199 I don't understand the mayor and the congressional member, you know, 1643 01:29:01.439 --> 01:29:08.319 storming a location where gang members and rapists and thieves 1644 01:29:08.800 --> 01:29:13.359 are being held who have come into our country illegally. 1645 01:29:14.239 --> 01:29:16.479 People might not even know the story to know that 1646 01:29:16.560 --> 01:29:21.199 that mayor was arrested, but it just looked chaotic and 1647 01:29:21.880 --> 01:29:25.399 for them to be pushing you know, law enforcement, it 1648 01:29:25.560 --> 01:29:31.119 just sends a terrible, terrible message to people and citizens 1649 01:29:31.199 --> 01:29:33.920 in the country. If they wanted to tour the site, 1650 01:29:34.039 --> 01:29:38.600 you just schedule it. Why are you running behind a 1651 01:29:38.760 --> 01:29:42.119 bus that's bringing you know, people that have been arrested 1652 01:29:42.359 --> 01:29:47.479 into the facility and creating such a ruckus. I absolutely 1653 01:29:47.600 --> 01:29:51.520 think that they should be prosecuted to hold them accountable, 1654 01:29:51.600 --> 01:29:55.479 because we just can't have that kind of craziness. And again, 1655 01:29:55.720 --> 01:29:57.159 there are people that are listening to you and I 1656 01:29:57.279 --> 01:29:59.399 talk about it. They can go out there and find 1657 01:29:59.439 --> 01:30:02.479 it so easily. I don't understand what they were doing. 1658 01:30:02.760 --> 01:30:05.079 There's so many other issues that I'd like to see 1659 01:30:05.119 --> 01:30:08.119 them speaking on, Like you were talking about school choice, 1660 01:30:08.439 --> 01:30:11.439 you know, making turning around our public schools across the 1661 01:30:11.560 --> 01:30:13.760 United States of America would be one of those things 1662 01:30:14.000 --> 01:30:17.399 as it relates to education. You know, I don't understand 1663 01:30:17.439 --> 01:30:19.359 what they're doing, and I just don't I'm trying to 1664 01:30:19.439 --> 01:30:22.560 figure out what they were doing and what their purpose 1665 01:30:22.720 --> 01:30:24.479 was that of that Brian talks, well, that's. 1666 01:30:24.359 --> 01:30:28.199 A legitimate question, and I think they're on the losing 1667 01:30:28.319 --> 01:30:29.960 side of the open borders, and that's one of the 1668 01:30:30.000 --> 01:30:32.119 reasons Trump got elected. I think we all can widely 1669 01:30:32.199 --> 01:30:35.960 agree on that. Millions and millions of illegal immigrants let 1670 01:30:36.039 --> 01:30:38.479 into the country and encouraged by the Biden administration to 1671 01:30:38.520 --> 01:30:40.159 come in here, and of course a lot of countries 1672 01:30:40.560 --> 01:30:43.479 we've found out emptied their prisons, sending us the worst 1673 01:30:43.520 --> 01:30:45.079 of the worst who end up on the streets of 1674 01:30:45.119 --> 01:30:48.359 America and do in fact commit violent crime, sometimes against children. 1675 01:30:49.000 --> 01:30:52.520 Human trafficking, the fort of child smuggling increased dramatically, and 1676 01:30:52.640 --> 01:30:54.640 as someone last week referred to Biden as the biggest 1677 01:30:54.720 --> 01:30:58.239 human trafficker that ever lived, because he facilitated that business 1678 01:30:58.359 --> 01:31:02.199 model that cropping up, hmm, open borders. We have an 1679 01:31:02.199 --> 01:31:04.560 opportunity here to ferry some young people in to use 1680 01:31:04.600 --> 01:31:07.640 as sex workers or slaves in America. That happened. The 1681 01:31:07.720 --> 01:31:09.039 drugs that were flowing over the border. 1682 01:31:09.199 --> 01:31:09.680 That happened. 1683 01:31:09.720 --> 01:31:12.000 So Americans are like, well, WHOA, WHOA something's got to 1684 01:31:12.039 --> 01:31:14.680 be done. Trump's in office, like five minutes he shuts 1685 01:31:14.720 --> 01:31:17.000 the border down down to like I mean, the almost 1686 01:31:17.079 --> 01:31:20.359 completely stopped the flow of humanity over the border. Now 1687 01:31:20.399 --> 01:31:23.399 we're dealing with the aftermath, and I think most Americans 1688 01:31:23.439 --> 01:31:25.800 would wish that the elected officials that they put in 1689 01:31:25.880 --> 01:31:30.439 office would prioritize domestic issues and quitting so much time 1690 01:31:30.520 --> 01:31:34.600 with their number one priority defending illegal immigrants, sometimes criminals, 1691 01:31:35.000 --> 01:31:37.880 and doing things like invading that ice space without just 1692 01:31:37.960 --> 01:31:40.680 calling and requesting an appointment, which has been widely reported. 1693 01:31:40.760 --> 01:31:42.680 Had they done that, they would have been welcomed in. 1694 01:31:43.560 --> 01:31:45.000 But you know, you got to deal with safety and 1695 01:31:45.079 --> 01:31:48.439 security issues. These are elected officials. Maybe one of the 1696 01:31:48.479 --> 01:31:50.600 inmates might try to attack them or something. I don't 1697 01:31:50.640 --> 01:31:52.319 know what the logistics are there, but that was a 1698 01:31:52.399 --> 01:31:54.560 proper course to do it, and they chose to do 1699 01:31:54.680 --> 01:31:56.520 otherwise this disruption. 1700 01:31:56.840 --> 01:31:57.720 Yes, go ahead. 1701 01:31:58.800 --> 01:32:02.520 Well, let me just add when I was the vice 1702 01:32:02.600 --> 01:32:04.680 mayor of the City of Cincinnati and I was chairing 1703 01:32:05.039 --> 01:32:09.239 Law and Public Safety, I wanted to tour the Hamilton 1704 01:32:09.319 --> 01:32:13.479 County jail, and so I just simply called up Sheriff 1705 01:32:13.640 --> 01:32:17.319 Neil and said I'd like to schedule a tour of 1706 01:32:17.439 --> 01:32:21.039 the Hamilton County Jail. I didn't go down there with 1707 01:32:21.159 --> 01:32:24.239 a team of people saying i'm processing, let me in, 1708 01:32:24.880 --> 01:32:27.880 and it was very orderly. We were protected by the sheriffs, 1709 01:32:27.880 --> 01:32:30.079 which I still to this day thanked them. We went 1710 01:32:30.159 --> 01:32:33.000 through each of the pods and we were specifically trying 1711 01:32:33.039 --> 01:32:36.000 to understand overcrowding. You're trying to deal with what were 1712 01:32:36.039 --> 01:32:38.319 the mental health issues, meaning who. 1713 01:32:38.279 --> 01:32:39.079 Are we jailing. 1714 01:32:39.359 --> 01:32:41.079 So there was just a purpose of it, and we 1715 01:32:41.279 --> 01:32:43.960 learned a lot from that visit in order to help 1716 01:32:44.039 --> 01:32:48.640 us deal with the costs that the city is paying 1717 01:32:49.000 --> 01:32:51.520 to jail people, meaning we're paying a cost when someone 1718 01:32:51.640 --> 01:32:55.039 is arrested in the city, we pay Hamilton County to 1719 01:32:55.199 --> 01:32:57.720 house those people in our Hamilton County jail. My point 1720 01:32:57.920 --> 01:33:01.600 was of just sharing that is through this process. Brian Thomas, 1721 01:33:01.920 --> 01:33:04.720 So I'm watching this on TV going I know that 1722 01:33:04.960 --> 01:33:07.680 they would have just complied if they just said, hey, 1723 01:33:07.720 --> 01:33:10.920 I like the schedule of digit. All of this profience 1724 01:33:11.239 --> 01:33:13.159 was for them to get on TV. And I just 1725 01:33:13.279 --> 01:33:16.960 don't understand politically why they think trying to break into 1726 01:33:17.039 --> 01:33:21.840 a facility where people who have been arrested have great 1727 01:33:22.000 --> 01:33:26.319 people have murdered, people who are thieves, and who are 1728 01:33:26.359 --> 01:33:29.079 being deported out of the United States of America. I 1729 01:33:29.159 --> 01:33:31.520 don't think they realize that there are people that have 1730 01:33:31.640 --> 01:33:35.720 come to this country in the most orderly way, followed 1731 01:33:35.800 --> 01:33:40.920 the process. They are supporting the deportation of people who 1732 01:33:41.079 --> 01:33:44.479 came illegally because they went through a process. Brian Thomas, So, 1733 01:33:44.600 --> 01:33:47.039 I don't even understand what these congressional members are doing. 1734 01:33:47.359 --> 01:33:49.640 I think they should be prosecuted. 1735 01:33:49.279 --> 01:33:50.880 Well, and that looks like what's going to happen. I 1736 01:33:50.960 --> 01:33:54.000 know the mayor there that was arrested for trespassing, and 1737 01:33:54.079 --> 01:33:57.479 it's widely reported that the three representatives who are there 1738 01:33:57.600 --> 01:34:00.439 for that invasion, if we can call it, that may 1739 01:34:00.520 --> 01:34:04.079 be subject to prosecution as well. It's trespassed. I mean 1740 01:34:04.159 --> 01:34:06.039 if you or I did it, we would be probably 1741 01:34:06.119 --> 01:34:07.840 locked up or at least we'd be out on bail 1742 01:34:07.880 --> 01:34:10.600 by now, but would have been arrested and order to 1743 01:34:10.640 --> 01:34:13.199 appear in court. So how they can be treated differently 1744 01:34:13.319 --> 01:34:16.119 from anybody else's beyond me. But I think politicians are 1745 01:34:16.239 --> 01:34:18.640 used to special treatment and that maybe what they get. 1746 01:34:19.960 --> 01:34:23.039 Let me be clear, I support the First Amendment right, 1747 01:34:23.800 --> 01:34:28.039 I support a peaceful protest that's what makes our country 1748 01:34:28.159 --> 01:34:31.880 this great experiment, the great experiment. It is what I 1749 01:34:32.039 --> 01:34:35.760 don't understand, and people can watch the video themselves, is 1750 01:34:35.960 --> 01:34:40.960 trying to break into a high security facility a jail, 1751 01:34:41.640 --> 01:34:46.399 demanding access that you have access to with just making 1752 01:34:46.560 --> 01:34:48.399 an appointment. I don't get it. 1753 01:34:49.439 --> 01:34:52.039 Yeah, I don't either, Christopher. I think just the idea 1754 01:34:52.079 --> 01:34:57.920 of them just encouraging civil disobedience period, any form of 1755 01:34:58.000 --> 01:35:01.439 civil disobedience. Get out in the streets, you know, violate 1756 01:35:01.520 --> 01:35:04.600 the law, protests, break things, throw frozen water, bottles of police, 1757 01:35:04.640 --> 01:35:07.079 whatever it happens to be, for any given issue that 1758 01:35:07.199 --> 01:35:08.640 seems to be the order of the day. Man, it 1759 01:35:08.760 --> 01:35:10.720 is a terrible direction for the country to go in. 1760 01:35:10.840 --> 01:35:13.520 I think they all sort of fantasize about being you know, 1761 01:35:13.600 --> 01:35:17.239 those nineteen sixties political protesters, you know, fighting for free 1762 01:35:17.279 --> 01:35:21.119 speech or anti Vietnam or whatever. They just seem to 1763 01:35:21.199 --> 01:35:23.920 grab issues that I believe the vast majority of the 1764 01:35:23.960 --> 01:35:29.319 American population is not in favor of, so that it 1765 01:35:29.359 --> 01:35:30.239 doesn't make any sense. 1766 01:35:30.359 --> 01:35:30.720 We mean that. 1767 01:35:31.239 --> 01:35:33.560 When we come back, brother, I'm going to talk a 1768 01:35:33.600 --> 01:35:35.439 little bit about Representative Crockett. 1769 01:35:36.000 --> 01:35:37.039 She's hit my radar. 1770 01:35:37.359 --> 01:35:40.319 She hit my radar. Again, I don't know what she's 1771 01:35:40.399 --> 01:35:42.960 talking about, but she said a lot in the public 1772 01:35:43.079 --> 01:35:45.199 of most recent and she seems to get a lot 1773 01:35:45.239 --> 01:35:47.600 of clickbait out here, But I don't think she understands 1774 01:35:47.800 --> 01:35:48.319 if not for. 1775 01:35:48.399 --> 01:35:50.560 Good stuff, well, and maybe you hit the nail on 1776 01:35:50.600 --> 01:35:52.640 the head clickbait. You know, they're under the mind that 1777 01:35:52.680 --> 01:35:55.399 any press is good press, even if well they're clicking. 1778 01:35:55.520 --> 01:35:58.640 People are clicking because they think she's batcraf insane or 1779 01:35:58.680 --> 01:36:01.680 he is the case. Maybe we'll bring Christopher back for 1780 01:36:01.760 --> 01:36:03.560 that event thing with the former vice mayor of the 1781 01:36:03.560 --> 01:36:08.560 City of Cincinnati. So pivoting over to Representative Jasmine Crockett, Christopher. 1782 01:36:10.000 --> 01:36:13.319 Look, Brian, all of us are out here as parents, 1783 01:36:13.359 --> 01:36:18.399 as Americans trying to raise our kids. Being a member 1784 01:36:18.479 --> 01:36:24.880 of Congress is a tremendous privilege. Representative Crockett has attended 1785 01:36:25.439 --> 01:36:30.159 the best grade schools and high schools and colleges that 1786 01:36:30.319 --> 01:36:33.279 money could buy. And I mean like seventy one thousand 1787 01:36:33.319 --> 01:36:37.880 dollars a year for where she studied and law degrees 1788 01:36:38.239 --> 01:36:42.119 all of that. Right, So this woman is incredibly educated. 1789 01:36:42.880 --> 01:36:46.159 I don't understand. And let me share with you raising 1790 01:36:46.199 --> 01:36:49.760 four boys and one girl. You know there were certain 1791 01:36:49.840 --> 01:36:53.079 rules in our house that you just couldn't cross, Like 1792 01:36:53.199 --> 01:36:55.880 you had to wear a belt, you couldn't walk around 1793 01:36:55.920 --> 01:36:58.800 with your pants hanging down off your butt. You had 1794 01:36:58.880 --> 01:37:01.199 to wake up and say good, I'm gonna type these 1795 01:37:01.199 --> 01:37:05.800 things together, like being respectful, being dignified, being classy. You 1796 01:37:05.920 --> 01:37:08.079 can be, you can have a difference of opinion, but 1797 01:37:08.319 --> 01:37:12.880 how you represent yourself is incredibly important, and particularly in 1798 01:37:13.000 --> 01:37:17.680 the days we're living in now where young people, white, black, Latino, 1799 01:37:17.880 --> 01:37:22.560 Asian need good role models, good examples of how to 1800 01:37:22.680 --> 01:37:25.960 conduct yourself in business. And so to watch your dropping 1801 01:37:26.239 --> 01:37:29.439 f bombs, meaning people have to watch this stuff. You know, 1802 01:37:29.560 --> 01:37:32.960 I'm talking about when she's in her official duties as 1803 01:37:33.000 --> 01:37:37.239 a congressional member on the floor, off the floor, and 1804 01:37:37.359 --> 01:37:40.840 so to see her dropping this this is this weekend. 1805 01:37:41.159 --> 01:37:44.359 You know, her most recent is dropping the word white boy. 1806 01:37:44.600 --> 01:37:47.399 So this in quotations, this is what she's saying. And 1807 01:37:47.520 --> 01:37:50.880 so I'm going, you know, hold on, now, that's racially charged. 1808 01:37:50.880 --> 01:37:53.520 I don't care what you're talking about. Why are you, 1809 01:37:53.760 --> 01:37:57.359 as a member of Congress using that kind of language. 1810 01:37:57.520 --> 01:38:00.600 And by the way, if you if centered, her crews 1811 01:38:00.640 --> 01:38:04.840 had done the same thing, but said black boy right, 1812 01:38:05.239 --> 01:38:08.279 we would be they would be up in arms. Are 1813 01:38:08.319 --> 01:38:12.000 you are you following me? If we just flip the 1814 01:38:12.079 --> 01:38:16.319 script and we say, you know, a senator from Louisiana, 1815 01:38:16.439 --> 01:38:20.039 Senator Kennedy is talking somewhere, giving a formal speech and 1816 01:38:20.159 --> 01:38:24.439 starts talking about grown men, grown African American men and 1817 01:38:24.600 --> 01:38:30.479 calling them black boys. I don't understand what she's doing right, 1818 01:38:30.640 --> 01:38:38.479 what her purpose is, and why other congressional members Democrats, Republicans, Independence, 1819 01:38:39.640 --> 01:38:42.399 whatever the AOC is. I don't know. If they're socialists, 1820 01:38:42.680 --> 01:38:47.399 why are they not coming out and saying, listen, Representative Crockett, 1821 01:38:47.479 --> 01:38:52.159 you must represent your seat with dignity and respect. We 1822 01:38:52.319 --> 01:38:54.159 did that when I was on the floor of Council. 1823 01:38:54.439 --> 01:38:56.800 When I'm chairing a meeting, if one of my colleagues 1824 01:38:56.840 --> 01:39:00.960 got too emotional, they were disrespectful to again, I called 1825 01:39:01.039 --> 01:39:04.199 him out in a very respectful way. Look, a council member, 1826 01:39:04.439 --> 01:39:06.760 I'd like you to take a deep breath. I'm gonna 1827 01:39:06.760 --> 01:39:09.079 I'm gonna give you kind of a minute here to recover. 1828 01:39:09.520 --> 01:39:12.039 I don't like what I'm hearing. You can you can 1829 01:39:12.119 --> 01:39:13.800 say whatever you want to say, just do it in 1830 01:39:13.880 --> 01:39:16.199 a respectful way. We're gonna We're gonna We're gonna move 1831 01:39:16.239 --> 01:39:20.079 to another council member. I just don't understand why we 1832 01:39:20.239 --> 01:39:23.560 have a person who is representing our country and the 1833 01:39:23.640 --> 01:39:27.439 state of Texas where she's mocking the governor who is 1834 01:39:27.560 --> 01:39:29.359 in a wheelchair, which a lot of people don't know 1835 01:39:29.800 --> 01:39:32.520 that the governor of of of of Texas is in 1836 01:39:32.600 --> 01:39:35.359 a wheelchair, and there she is mocking him and his 1837 01:39:35.560 --> 01:39:39.640 disability of being in a wheelchair. I'm lost here, Brian Thomas. 1838 01:39:39.800 --> 01:39:43.880 How is somebody like this elected to our Congress and 1839 01:39:44.039 --> 01:39:46.600 they are not being censured. I don't understand it. 1840 01:39:46.920 --> 01:39:48.079 Uh, well, I don't either. 1841 01:39:48.319 --> 01:39:50.119 She was talking about this in the context of a 1842 01:39:50.279 --> 01:39:53.159 woman running for president, and she said it is the 1843 01:39:53.199 --> 01:39:55.319 fear that the people within the party, within the primary systm. 1844 01:39:55.359 --> 01:39:58.319 She's referring, of course, the Democrats will have about voting 1845 01:39:58.359 --> 01:40:00.239 for a woman, because every time we vote for a woman, 1846 01:40:00.279 --> 01:40:01.920 we've lost so far. And I think that that's a 1847 01:40:02.039 --> 01:40:04.600 natural fear because we just want to win. So there's 1848 01:40:04.600 --> 01:40:05.880 a lot of people that are like, you know what, 1849 01:40:06.319 --> 01:40:09.199 let's just let's go find the safest white boy we 1850 01:40:09.319 --> 01:40:11.840 can find. I mean, I'm just saying again, I'm just 1851 01:40:11.880 --> 01:40:14.680 reading her words. She said, no, for real. It to 1852 01:40:14.760 --> 01:40:16.760 be clear when we talk about them. I can tell 1853 01:40:16.800 --> 01:40:20.640 you there's one specific candidate. I had a donor on 1854 01:40:20.840 --> 01:40:23.039 the phone with me telling me that all the donors 1855 01:40:23.079 --> 01:40:25.640 are lining up because behind that candidate. So I can 1856 01:40:25.720 --> 01:40:28.119 tell and I can tell you it's not a black 1857 01:40:28.199 --> 01:40:29.520 person nor a woman. 1858 01:40:29.720 --> 01:40:30.039 Okay. 1859 01:40:31.039 --> 01:40:33.479 And I thought to myself, well, she wants to check 1860 01:40:33.600 --> 01:40:39.119 these these deiboxes, so she fails to appreciate that maybe 1861 01:40:39.239 --> 01:40:41.920 the women that didn't win not because they were women, 1862 01:40:42.039 --> 01:40:44.640 because they were less qualified. And the American people believe, 1863 01:40:44.720 --> 01:40:48.079 maybe in some measure of merit, or the American people 1864 01:40:48.399 --> 01:40:51.560 liked Donald Trump in terms of policy more than Kamala 1865 01:40:51.640 --> 01:40:54.880 Harrison her word salad, is Kamala Harris really the finest 1866 01:40:54.920 --> 01:40:58.000 candidate that Democrats can run. I don't know they ran her, 1867 01:40:58.560 --> 01:41:00.800 but she lost. I know, I don't believe in a 1868 01:41:00.840 --> 01:41:02.680 minute because she lost because she was a woman, because 1869 01:41:02.680 --> 01:41:05.319 she was black, because she was ditzy and word solid 1870 01:41:05.399 --> 01:41:07.479 filled and didn't have any really issues to stand on. 1871 01:41:07.640 --> 01:41:10.119 She just stand up in man's playing or female ex 1872 01:41:10.159 --> 01:41:13.439 playing things on these boiled down second grade level education 1873 01:41:13.680 --> 01:41:17.319 comments and it didn't make any sense. So we judged 1874 01:41:17.359 --> 01:41:20.800 her on her merit. Is there anybody in the Democrat 1875 01:41:20.880 --> 01:41:23.760 Party that can run for high office motally the president 1876 01:41:23.800 --> 01:41:26.399 of the United States that check marks the boxes, woman 1877 01:41:26.560 --> 01:41:30.159 and black, that can run an adequate race? And if 1878 01:41:30.199 --> 01:41:32.840 there was one, I think one would have emerged by now, 1879 01:41:32.960 --> 01:41:35.199 or maybe one will emerge between now and when people 1880 01:41:35.239 --> 01:41:38.399 start declaring their candidacy for president. But to just say 1881 01:41:38.439 --> 01:41:41.560 that we need a black woman, period, end of story, 1882 01:41:41.600 --> 01:41:44.319 and that should be enough. I just don't find her 1883 01:41:44.479 --> 01:41:46.960 being logical or reasonable. Do you want to win or not? 1884 01:41:48.720 --> 01:41:48.880 Well? 1885 01:41:49.000 --> 01:41:50.880 I would say, if I could give them a hint, 1886 01:41:51.039 --> 01:41:52.920 the person that they would be looking at would be 1887 01:41:52.960 --> 01:41:57.720 somebody like Governor Shapiro out of Pennsylvania. He is he 1888 01:41:57.960 --> 01:42:00.800 he would perform well coming out out of the Midwest. 1889 01:42:01.279 --> 01:42:04.760 But I can't even go to her like analysis of 1890 01:42:04.840 --> 01:42:08.319 what she's talking about because she's so racially charged, and 1891 01:42:09.199 --> 01:42:12.800 the hypocrisy of it, meaning this is coming from a Democrat, 1892 01:42:13.159 --> 01:42:15.239 the hypocrisy of her using it, and there are people 1893 01:42:15.239 --> 01:42:17.239 that are listening to this, going what's the problem. 1894 01:42:17.319 --> 01:42:18.159 There's no issue. 1895 01:42:18.560 --> 01:42:23.680 She's a member of Congress. When you accept that, oh 1896 01:42:24.279 --> 01:42:27.800 you're something other, You're not just this person walking down 1897 01:42:27.880 --> 01:42:31.600 the street. So the standards are high. That's the problem. 1898 01:42:31.880 --> 01:42:35.119 We continue to have this apathy and she continues to 1899 01:42:35.279 --> 01:42:39.479 degrade the institution, and the Congress is going to wake 1900 01:42:39.560 --> 01:42:42.239 up and go why and how did we get here 1901 01:42:42.439 --> 01:42:45.520 where members of Congress think is okay to cuss each 1902 01:42:45.560 --> 01:42:48.720 other out while they're in their official duties in the 1903 01:42:48.800 --> 01:42:52.720 member in the meet, in the middle of a congressional meeting. 1904 01:42:53.319 --> 01:42:55.159 This is how we end up in a bad place 1905 01:42:55.399 --> 01:42:59.279 because we allow people like this to go unchecked. Brian Thomas, 1906 01:42:59.600 --> 01:43:02.640 it's a big issue. It's a problem, and I'm saying 1907 01:43:02.720 --> 01:43:05.760 that that kind of apathy has voters showing up at 1908 01:43:05.840 --> 01:43:09.000 nine to ten percent in the primary. Meaning the point 1909 01:43:09.119 --> 01:43:11.720 is that we all just continue to have this apathy 1910 01:43:11.800 --> 01:43:14.880 and anything we want to do, anything goes. It's not 1911 01:43:15.479 --> 01:43:18.199 we want dignified people. If I want young people to 1912 01:43:18.279 --> 01:43:20.560 walk around with their pants up and wearing a belt, 1913 01:43:21.039 --> 01:43:24.399 if I want a young people to say good morning, 1914 01:43:24.560 --> 01:43:27.279 yes sir and no sir. If I want them to 1915 01:43:27.399 --> 01:43:30.239 be in a mall and not fight each other, right, 1916 01:43:30.319 --> 01:43:32.600 if I want all those things, I want my congressional 1917 01:43:32.680 --> 01:43:36.199 members that are representing me to not use profanity and 1918 01:43:36.319 --> 01:43:39.640 cuss each other out and certainly not use racial slurs. 1919 01:43:40.199 --> 01:43:44.399 Using that term is a racial slur. It is beneath 1920 01:43:44.760 --> 01:43:47.359 the dignity of a member of Congress, and I'm going 1921 01:43:47.399 --> 01:43:49.319 to call her out on it this morning. There are 1922 01:43:49.319 --> 01:43:52.840 people listening Brian Thomas that think it's okay. It's not 1923 01:43:53.039 --> 01:43:56.000 okay because she's a member of Congress. It's not okay 1924 01:43:56.319 --> 01:43:58.800 if she wasn't a member of Congress. But she is 1925 01:43:58.920 --> 01:44:01.239 a member of Congress and she was saying that in 1926 01:44:01.359 --> 01:44:02.760 her official duty. 1927 01:44:03.319 --> 01:44:04.479 Yeah, I agree with you. 1928 01:44:04.560 --> 01:44:08.640 I agree with you completely about the language. And you know, 1929 01:44:08.720 --> 01:44:11.000 there are people on a lot of sides of the 1930 01:44:11.000 --> 01:44:13.359 political ledger. It doesn't matter just not just Democrats that 1931 01:44:13.399 --> 01:44:15.439 are dropping F bombs left and right, And it really 1932 01:44:15.600 --> 01:44:18.960 is just it's a de evolution. They are elected officials, 1933 01:44:19.000 --> 01:44:20.840 as you point out, they should be serving as an 1934 01:44:21.359 --> 01:44:24.119 example of what is right and good and keep the 1935 01:44:24.560 --> 01:44:27.479 level of debate at a friendly level and not so 1936 01:44:27.680 --> 01:44:32.880 vitriolic and just I don't know, man, there was a 1937 01:44:32.960 --> 01:44:35.600 time when you you rarely use the F bomb for 1938 01:44:35.680 --> 01:44:36.279 really anything. 1939 01:44:36.359 --> 01:44:36.760 Christopher. 1940 01:44:36.760 --> 01:44:39.600 It seems to become a something in the modern lexicon 1941 01:44:39.640 --> 01:44:41.920 that people are willing to use all the time. Great 1942 01:44:41.960 --> 01:44:42.680 points that they can. 1943 01:44:43.319 --> 01:44:46.800 Look in conclusion, I couldn't get away with that this 1944 01:44:47.039 --> 01:44:49.800 radio spot with you, right, Brian, You would hold me 1945 01:44:49.880 --> 01:44:52.479 accountable if I did it. You'd call me up after 1946 01:44:52.560 --> 01:44:54.479 the show and say, if you do it again, you 1947 01:44:54.640 --> 01:44:56.920 can't come back on you because I'm going to lose 1948 01:44:57.000 --> 01:44:59.159 my license. That's why you have a dump b Yeah. 1949 01:44:58.960 --> 01:45:00.720 But it's more important than Christopher. 1950 01:45:01.479 --> 01:45:03.960 Even if I didn't have FCC compliance, which I joke 1951 01:45:04.000 --> 01:45:08.039 about all the time. But it doesn't serve you.

Welcome back, Brian James. Great to 1972 01:46:04.439 --> 01:46:05.039 have you on today. 1973 01:46:05.880 --> 01:46:08.880 Thank you very much as always in Happy belated Mother's 1974 01:46:09.000 --> 01:46:10.600 Day to all those mothers out there. 1975 01:46:10.720 --> 01:46:12.880 Amen to that. I've been doing that all morning. Got 1976 01:46:13.000 --> 01:46:16.479 to love your mom. And the landscape of the stories 1977 01:46:16.520 --> 01:46:18.039 we're talking about today, I mean, at least a couple 1978 01:46:18.119 --> 01:46:21.760 of them may start to change. I'm sure you know 1979 01:46:21.920 --> 01:46:24.960 that US and China agreed to the tariff cuts over 1980 01:46:25.039 --> 01:46:27.880 the weekend. Was announced this morning. We're going to keep 1981 01:46:27.880 --> 01:46:30.439 recivical tarafts at ten percent. We got that additional twenty 1982 01:46:30.479 --> 01:46:33.560 percent because China's role in the fentnel trade. But the 1983 01:46:33.760 --> 01:46:38.560 one five percent retaliatory trade loveies on US goods and 1984 01:46:38.680 --> 01:46:41.600 Chinese goods apparently has been put to rest, and we've 1985 01:46:41.600 --> 01:46:43.840 got at least a ninety day pause in those tariffs, 1986 01:46:43.880 --> 01:46:46.560 which got the markets really soaring this morning. 1987 01:46:46.640 --> 01:46:48.079 Futures are up across the board. 1988 01:46:49.239 --> 01:46:51.399 It's going to be a good day according to futures. 1989 01:46:51.439 --> 01:46:53.520 And that's what happens when we get the good news. 1990 01:46:53.560 --> 01:46:55.600 So that this is the one thing, Brian that that 1991 01:46:56.720 --> 01:47:00.079 that kind of keeps keeps should hopefully keep everybody a 1992 01:47:00.119 --> 01:47:02.600 little bit more calm about what happens is this is 1993 01:47:02.640 --> 01:47:05.479 self inflicted. The United States is choosing to represent itself 1994 01:47:05.520 --> 01:47:07.159 differently to the rest of the world in terms of 1995 01:47:07.199 --> 01:47:10.239 being a trade partner. But underneath this, as we're sitting 1996 01:47:10.239 --> 01:47:12.800 here right now, is still a pretty strong economy that 1997 01:47:12.920 --> 01:47:15.680 is ready to roll on once the fog clears. And 1998 01:47:15.840 --> 01:47:17.840 this has happened. This seems to happen about every week 1999 01:47:17.840 --> 01:47:19.359 and a half two weeks. We'll get a snippet of 2000 01:47:19.399 --> 01:47:21.680 good news and the market will bounce up. Right now, 2001 01:47:21.760 --> 01:47:24.199 we're looking at really really high futures. S and P's 2002 01:47:24.279 --> 01:47:27.720 up three percent and everything's up something like three to 2003 01:47:27.800 --> 01:47:30.920 four percent. And that's not because things got wonderful overnight. 2004 01:47:31.199 --> 01:47:33.560 It's because some of the fog clear. That's all the 2005 01:47:33.640 --> 01:47:36.000 market ever wants is some clarity. It wants to be 2006 01:47:36.119 --> 01:47:38.479 able to predict. Here's how companies are going to be 2007 01:47:38.520 --> 01:47:40.359 able to operate, and here's roughly what they're going to 2008 01:47:40.399 --> 01:47:41.920 be able, what kind of profits they're going to be 2009 01:47:41.960 --> 01:47:44.279 able to make, and when we are we're throwing these 2010 01:47:44.359 --> 01:47:46.399 tariffs back and forth at each other left and right. 2011 01:47:46.600 --> 01:47:49.159 There's no way to do that calculation. So at the 2012 01:47:49.239 --> 01:47:51.920 moment the market is saying, okay, cool, I can see 2013 01:47:52.000 --> 01:47:54.560 at least ninety days into the future because we know 2014 01:47:54.680 --> 01:47:56.680 what the tariff situation is going to be with our 2015 01:47:56.760 --> 01:48:00.079 largest trading partner, and a smaller headline was we it 2016 01:48:00.199 --> 01:48:02.800 come to an official agreement with the UK. Now they're 2017 01:48:02.840 --> 01:48:04.680 not a huge trading partner, and I was kind of 2018 01:48:04.720 --> 01:48:07.239 googling this and it basically said we're gonna save hundreds 2019 01:48:07.239 --> 01:48:09.319 of millions on Jaguar and land Rover, so you know, 2020 01:48:09.600 --> 01:48:12.439 some help for the little guy. Finally, the cavalry is coming. 2021 01:48:12.520 --> 01:48:15.800 Pin Thomas, Well, all. 2022 01:48:15.760 --> 01:48:19.800 This on the heels of yes, shipping demand has dropped precipitously. 2023 01:48:19.920 --> 01:48:22.239 Of course, the tariffs have a large role in what 2024 01:48:22.319 --> 01:48:24.279 we're going to be shipping from China to here, and 2025 01:48:24.319 --> 01:48:27.279 of course global shipping apparently it's dropped off a lot. 2026 01:48:27.479 --> 01:48:30.399 Is this all directly related to the tariffs or is 2027 01:48:30.479 --> 01:48:34.399 there some other economic reality lurking behind the scenes on this. 2028 01:48:34.520 --> 01:48:38.359 Brian James, Well, there's always other economic reality, right, There's 2029 01:48:38.399 --> 01:48:41.439 lots of little things pushing and pulling on the overall situation. 2030 01:48:41.520 --> 01:48:42.239 That's always the case. 2031 01:48:42.279 --> 01:48:44.600 But this is all tariff driven, and it's starting to 2032 01:48:44.640 --> 01:48:46.560 feel to me like I don't know if you remember 2033 01:48:46.680 --> 01:48:49.920 December of twenty nineteen, early twenty twenty when we heard 2034 01:48:49.920 --> 01:48:51.800 about a thing called COVID and it was going to 2035 01:48:51.800 --> 01:48:54.199 be coming ashore in the next few months. Well, now 2036 01:48:54.439 --> 01:48:56.640 five years into the future, what we're hearing about is 2037 01:48:56.760 --> 01:49:00.159 the fact that shelves are going to be empty. That's 2038 01:49:00.199 --> 01:49:01.239 what we're starting to see. 2039 01:49:01.800 --> 01:49:03.319 Not the shelves. I mean, I've been to the stores too, 2040 01:49:03.399 --> 01:49:04.600 and don't I don't see it yet. 2041 01:49:04.960 --> 01:49:07.920 However, ports like Los Angeles, Long Beach, New York, New Jersey, 2042 01:49:08.000 --> 01:49:11.600 they are experiencing large drops in cargo, especially from China. 2043 01:49:12.000 --> 01:49:16.039 Import booking volumes down thirty five percent since March. Shipments 2044 01:49:16.079 --> 01:49:20.680 from China down forty three percent. That includes electronics, plastics, vehicles, steel, 2045 01:49:20.920 --> 01:49:24.000 textiles down by more than half. This is going to 2046 01:49:24.199 --> 01:49:28.319 surface eventually. We have yet to see it, but it's coming, well. 2047 01:49:28.279 --> 01:49:30.800 Isn't part of this drop in shipping demand because a 2048 01:49:30.840 --> 01:49:34.680 lot of these businesses and industries front loaded larger orders 2049 01:49:34.760 --> 01:49:37.199 in anticipation of the tariffs ultimately kicking in. 2050 01:49:38.039 --> 01:49:38.840 So you have direct that. 2051 01:49:40.439 --> 01:49:42.600 You have a large increase in shipping followed by a 2052 01:49:43.039 --> 01:49:46.079 drop in shipping because I guess there's limited storage space. 2053 01:49:46.079 --> 01:49:48.119 There's only so much that any given company that buys 2054 01:49:48.199 --> 01:49:50.680 Chinese goods, for example, can buy at any one time, 2055 01:49:50.720 --> 01:49:53.800 even if they're trying to front load. So and plus, 2056 01:49:54.079 --> 01:49:55.920 you know, it really is kind of a tea leaf 2057 01:49:55.960 --> 01:49:58.119 reading kind of thing because you don't know, as we 2058 01:49:58.319 --> 01:50:00.359 kind of alluded to a moment ago, I don't know 2059 01:50:00.399 --> 01:50:03.159 what's going to ultimately happen. And Trump's been busily negotiating 2060 01:50:03.199 --> 01:50:05.119 with one hundred and seventy different countries to come up 2061 01:50:05.159 --> 01:50:09.359 as like Britain, some satisfactory a level of tariffs that 2062 01:50:09.439 --> 01:50:11.520 we can all live and work with, and something that 2063 01:50:11.600 --> 01:50:14.960 might expand the American markets. But that's an ever evolving, 2064 01:50:15.039 --> 01:50:18.359 ever moving landscape. So how much extra stuff do you 2065 01:50:18.479 --> 01:50:22.680 buy anticipating tariffs are going to cause you a financial problem. 2066 01:50:23.279 --> 01:50:25.920 It's like if you own a restaurant, how much meat 2067 01:50:25.960 --> 01:50:27.359 do you buy at the beginning of the week. How 2068 01:50:27.399 --> 01:50:29.399 many people are going to order stakes you know you're 2069 01:50:29.439 --> 01:50:32.199 going to have losses. Are you gonna overbuy and have 2070 01:50:32.279 --> 01:50:34.960 to throw things out? It's a complicated thing. 2071 01:50:35.880 --> 01:50:36.319 It really is. 2072 01:50:36.359 --> 01:50:38.560 And that's why a lot of smart financial brains get 2073 01:50:38.560 --> 01:50:41.520 paid a lot of money to understand exactly what their 2074 01:50:41.560 --> 01:50:45.079 companies need. Unfortunately, the average American doesn't really have the 2075 01:50:45.159 --> 01:50:47.560 ability to do this, with the exception of toilet paper, 2076 01:50:47.600 --> 01:50:49.479 which is the first thing to go whenever it snows 2077 01:50:49.520 --> 01:50:52.720 and whenever we have pandemics apparently. But yeah, so this 2078 01:50:52.880 --> 01:50:55.720 is simply a business decision where they're just saying, Okay, 2079 01:50:55.800 --> 01:50:57.399 it looks like it's going to get a little crazy 2080 01:50:57.439 --> 01:50:58.159 in the next few months. 2081 01:50:58.199 --> 01:50:59.039 We really need to. 2082 01:51:01.640 --> 01:51:03.119 Stock up on this, that, and the other, but we're 2083 01:51:03.119 --> 01:51:05.239 going to ignore these other things. And so what you saw, 2084 01:51:05.359 --> 01:51:08.960 that's what triggered the economic poolback in the United States 2085 01:51:09.119 --> 01:51:12.800 are our most recently reported economic quarter was negative. We 2086 01:51:12.840 --> 01:51:14.560 don't call that a recession until we have two quarters 2087 01:51:14.560 --> 01:51:16.600 in a row. But that was kind of self inflicted 2088 01:51:16.640 --> 01:51:18.920 from a standpoint of because these tariffs were in place. 2089 01:51:19.159 --> 01:51:22.359 For the exact reason you just mentioned, companies and businesses 2090 01:51:22.439 --> 01:51:25.680 started buying a lot more from overseas therefore a lot 2091 01:51:25.840 --> 01:51:28.800 less than the United States. So arguably as possible, you 2092 01:51:28.880 --> 01:51:31.279 could be looking for a bit of a perk up 2093 01:51:31.359 --> 01:51:34.439 in the United States domestic purchases as long as those 2094 01:51:34.479 --> 01:51:37.199 products that these businesses need are available from the United States. 2095 01:51:37.439 --> 01:51:40.720 Nothing magical happened in the first quarter to suddenly create 2096 01:51:40.840 --> 01:51:42.920 factories where there were none. There are things we can't 2097 01:51:43.000 --> 01:51:45.079 get from anywhere else. That's why there's a lot of 2098 01:51:45.119 --> 01:51:47.560 businesses out there suffering. And I'm assuming there's somebody screaming 2099 01:51:47.560 --> 01:51:50.119 at their windshield right now saying, hey, that doesn't help me. 2100 01:51:50.239 --> 01:51:51.399 I can't buy domestically. 2101 01:51:51.760 --> 01:51:53.600 I have to I got to kind of take it 2102 01:51:53.640 --> 01:51:56.319 in the pants here until we get these tariffs cleared up. 2103 01:51:56.720 --> 01:52:00.479 And I keep thinking of going back to COVID about that. 2104 01:52:00.560 --> 01:52:03.079 That's when we sort of all came to the realization that, 2105 01:52:03.560 --> 01:52:05.960 you know, we don't manufacture a lot of things that 2106 01:52:06.239 --> 01:52:09.279 you know, are critical to our even our nation's security. 2107 01:52:09.319 --> 01:52:12.560 Pharmaceuticals came into mind immediately when like, oh my god, 2108 01:52:12.640 --> 01:52:15.239 we rely on China for all of these, including the 2109 01:52:15.279 --> 01:52:18.840 pharmaceuticals our members in uniform have if we had been 2110 01:52:18.960 --> 01:52:21.359 sort of conflict, China just flips the switch and doesn't 2111 01:52:21.399 --> 01:52:24.520 sell them to us anymore. So there are reasons other 2112 01:52:24.640 --> 01:52:26.960 than tariffs for US to have some measure of incentive 2113 01:52:27.000 --> 01:52:30.199 to start manufacturing either with countries with whom we have 2114 01:52:30.359 --> 01:52:33.680 no conflict, or at least start manufacturing them in here 2115 01:52:33.720 --> 01:52:35.600 in the United States. But as you illust as you 2116 01:52:35.640 --> 01:52:38.079 point out, it takes time to ramp up, and it 2117 01:52:38.159 --> 01:52:40.359 also comes as that it is at a significantly higher 2118 01:52:40.439 --> 01:52:45.239 cost because of the imbalance in labor between US and China. 2119 01:52:46.359 --> 01:52:49.399 Yeah, a lot of this comes from the fact that 2120 01:52:49.479 --> 01:52:52.520 the United States was founded and grew to its current 2121 01:52:52.640 --> 01:52:55.279 size based on the idea of being the United States 2122 01:52:55.319 --> 01:52:58.760 of profit margin. Everything we can possibly do, everything we 2123 01:52:58.840 --> 01:52:59.880 can squeeze profit out. 2124 01:53:00.119 --> 01:53:02.760 That's just the way that we roll. So you talk 2125 01:53:02.800 --> 01:53:03.319 about we. 2126 01:53:03.359 --> 01:53:07.680 Want to bring pharmaceuticals on shore somehow, some way, someone 2127 01:53:07.960 --> 01:53:10.039 is looking at that as Okay, I can do that. 2128 01:53:10.119 --> 01:53:11.479 I can build a factory that's going to do that, 2129 01:53:11.520 --> 01:53:13.119 and here's on what profit margin I want to make 2130 01:53:13.159 --> 01:53:15.640 out of it. Nobody here in this country who waves 2131 01:53:15.680 --> 01:53:17.479 a red, white and blue flag looks at that and says, 2132 01:53:17.520 --> 01:53:18.800 you know what, I'm going to do that for the 2133 01:53:18.840 --> 01:53:20.840 good of the people. I'm not saying that's a good thing, 2134 01:53:20.920 --> 01:53:23.479 but that is how we make decisions, and everybody does it, 2135 01:53:23.560 --> 01:53:26.039 include I'll throw the unions in there too. It's expensive 2136 01:53:26.279 --> 01:53:28.840 to build stuff here because of the protections we have 2137 01:53:28.960 --> 01:53:31.720 in place for workers. There are union leadership out there 2138 01:53:31.760 --> 01:53:34.119 who they of course they get paid to kind of 2139 01:53:34.159 --> 01:53:37.039 bring these deals to fruition just like anybody else. People 2140 01:53:37.039 --> 01:53:40.800 who make profits by creating products and services are really 2141 01:53:40.880 --> 01:53:44.640 no different than the people who create a long running 2142 01:53:44.680 --> 01:53:47.119 positions for themselves by leading a group of people in 2143 01:53:47.159 --> 01:53:49.319 a union. Not good, bad, or in different, but all 2144 01:53:49.399 --> 01:53:51.439 of it winds up costing more and that trickles all 2145 01:53:51.479 --> 01:53:53.600 the way back down to the consumer. That's kind of 2146 01:53:53.640 --> 01:53:56.800 the whole point of the United States. We are here 2147 01:53:57.119 --> 01:53:57.880 to make a profit. 2148 01:53:58.439 --> 01:54:01.239 Yeah, And in spite of the true you illustrate, you know, 2149 01:54:01.279 --> 01:54:03.680 we are kind of a global economy anymore, which gives 2150 01:54:03.760 --> 01:54:06.840 us options of manufacturing in places like China where it's cheaper. 2151 01:54:07.479 --> 01:54:09.640 But over the last several years we've seen a lot 2152 01:54:09.800 --> 01:54:13.159 new a lot of new investment in very large businesses 2153 01:54:13.239 --> 01:54:15.279 in industry, and a lot of it does seem to 2154 01:54:15.319 --> 01:54:18.359 be taking place. So in spite of those challenges, apparently 2155 01:54:18.439 --> 01:54:20.479 there is still some profit in building something here in 2156 01:54:20.479 --> 01:54:23.800 the United States, like these battery manufacturing plants or these 2157 01:54:23.840 --> 01:54:26.800 artificial intelligence plants and other things. 2158 01:54:28.199 --> 01:54:30.399 Right there is And that's the thing to bear in mind. 2159 01:54:30.560 --> 01:54:32.800 If we were in truly in the seventies where we 2160 01:54:33.079 --> 01:54:38.039 had stagflation, but it occurred kind of organically, and I 2161 01:54:38.159 --> 01:54:39.800 mean that. What I mean by that is that there 2162 01:54:39.840 --> 01:54:43.159 are plenty of catalysts right now that are happening. Technology 2163 01:54:43.199 --> 01:54:45.960 has been a catalyst for fifteen twenty years. It kind 2164 01:54:46.000 --> 01:54:49.680 of changes with regard to what the technology is it's driving. 2165 01:54:49.720 --> 01:54:52.359 You know, twenty years ago it was mobile devices and 2166 01:54:52.520 --> 01:54:54.840 the move to kind of move being able to be 2167 01:54:54.960 --> 01:54:56.800 anywhere and do your job and so on and so forth, 2168 01:54:57.039 --> 01:54:59.239 and that has cycled forth to now to what you 2169 01:54:59.359 --> 01:55:02.279 just mentioned article official Intelligence, which I can't imagine that's 2170 01:55:02.319 --> 01:55:06.520 not touching absolutely every industry very very very rapidly. But 2171 01:55:06.680 --> 01:55:10.079 that's a catalyst for companies to become more efficient, increase 2172 01:55:10.119 --> 01:55:12.039 their profit margin, and lots of companies are going to 2173 01:55:12.079 --> 01:55:14.439 want to invest in supporting it because there's a lot 2174 01:55:14.439 --> 01:55:16.720 of money to be made in So underneath all of this, 2175 01:55:16.880 --> 01:55:19.119 when we stop smacking each other around, there is a 2176 01:55:19.199 --> 01:55:21.680 strong economy and the dollars are still moving around in 2177 01:55:21.720 --> 01:55:23.880 a circle. It just depends on how much longer we 2178 01:55:23.920 --> 01:55:25.439 want to It's a big game of chicken. How much 2179 01:55:25.479 --> 01:55:27.119 longer are we going to have these fights with our 2180 01:55:27.199 --> 01:55:28.159 various trading partners. 2181 01:55:28.359 --> 01:55:32.000 Well continue with Brian James.

Brian James pivoting over real quick 2219 01:57:18.560 --> 01:57:21.600 to a related story with the empty the global shipping 2220 01:57:21.640 --> 01:57:24.680 grinding down is and I've seen these red flags wave 2221 01:57:24.760 --> 01:57:26.800 and you know, whaling and gnashing your teeth, Oh my god. 2222 01:57:26.840 --> 01:57:28.239 And a lot of it's driven, I think, by Trump 2223 01:57:28.359 --> 01:57:30.279 arrangement syndrome. But there is something to be said that, 2224 01:57:30.680 --> 01:57:33.199 you know, if you're going to have these massive tariffs, 2225 01:57:33.239 --> 01:57:36.439 the idea of having empty shells is certainly a possibility. 2226 01:57:36.479 --> 01:57:38.239 But I suppose it depends on what you're looking for. 2227 01:57:39.079 --> 01:57:40.840 So are we going to see a bunch of empty 2228 01:57:40.920 --> 01:57:44.520 shells and four lease signs the headline headline opinion, empty shells, 2229 01:57:44.600 --> 01:57:47.279 four lease signs and job layoffs point to a recession 2230 01:57:47.359 --> 01:57:49.680 by summer? Geez, you and I've been talking about a 2231 01:57:49.720 --> 01:57:51.800 possible recession now for quite a few years. 2232 01:57:51.880 --> 01:57:56.039 Brian, Well, I think we're always talking about the possibility 2233 01:57:56.039 --> 01:57:59.119 of a recession, right, We're never We're we are never 2234 01:57:59.359 --> 01:58:02.159 not on our way to the next recession that's always 2235 01:58:02.600 --> 01:58:05.520 coming up, right, So it's also going to rain, maybe today, 2236 01:58:05.560 --> 01:58:06.279 maybe a month from now. 2237 01:58:06.319 --> 01:58:07.680 But by god, one of these days, I'm going to 2238 01:58:07.720 --> 01:58:08.239 be right about it. 2239 01:58:08.600 --> 01:58:12.159 So, yeah, we're currently if when you look at the 2240 01:58:12.319 --> 01:58:14.880 current situation, which is about as fluid as it can be, 2241 01:58:15.039 --> 01:58:17.680 things are changing, you know, they change over the weekend, 2242 01:58:17.720 --> 01:58:19.520 they go from black to white. So if you look 2243 01:58:19.560 --> 01:58:21.680 at the current situation, then yes, it does look like 2244 01:58:21.760 --> 01:58:23.640 we're on our way to a recession that is triggered 2245 01:58:23.680 --> 01:58:25.640 by this. But I think the reference you were making 2246 01:58:25.680 --> 01:58:28.800 there earlier is that that up until very recently, everyone 2247 01:58:28.960 --> 01:58:31.239 was looking for the second leg down from COVID. We 2248 01:58:31.399 --> 01:58:34.279 only recently stopped talking about that. And I think I've 2249 01:58:34.319 --> 01:58:37.800 kind of learned the definition, Brian, of a soft landing. 2250 01:58:38.119 --> 01:58:40.720 I think a soft landing is at some point you 2251 01:58:40.800 --> 01:58:43.039 realize you haven't talked about it in months, and therefore 2252 01:58:43.159 --> 01:58:45.159 that was a soft landing. We never declare that, Okay, 2253 01:58:45.239 --> 01:58:47.520 it's all over. You know, everybody back and pull, everything's great. 2254 01:58:47.720 --> 01:58:49.800 We just stopped talking about it until the next one 2255 01:58:49.880 --> 01:58:51.000 comes along, and here we are. 2256 01:58:51.560 --> 01:58:53.399 Yeah, that is a funny way of looking at it. 2257 01:58:53.520 --> 01:58:56.199 But you're right, it's right around the corner, maybe a 2258 01:58:56.239 --> 01:58:58.520 little bit further down the road when you hit that corner. 2259 01:58:58.640 --> 01:59:00.680 But something bad is always going to. But but then again, 2260 01:59:00.760 --> 01:59:03.479 something good will always happen too. Like I mean today, 2261 01:59:03.880 --> 01:59:07.359 you know, if the futures are indications where they are 2262 01:59:07.439 --> 01:59:08.960 right now turn out to be true, it's going to 2263 01:59:09.039 --> 01:59:12.199 erase all of the losses when since the day Donald 2264 01:59:12.239 --> 01:59:14.359 Trump announced the tariffs kicked in place. At least that's 2265 01:59:14.359 --> 01:59:15.239 what I read this morning. 2266 01:59:16.119 --> 01:59:19.000 Yeah, we are clawing our way back to back to zero. 2267 01:59:19.159 --> 01:59:21.760 Really, the S and P five hundred is only down 2268 01:59:21.760 --> 01:59:23.279 as we're sitting here right now about four percent. 2269 01:59:23.359 --> 01:59:24.920 That does not yet reflect the futures. 2270 01:59:25.520 --> 01:59:28.279 So if futures kick in, you know, if this market 2271 01:59:28.359 --> 01:59:29.920 kicks in where the futures are, then yes, we'll be 2272 01:59:30.000 --> 01:59:32.720 back to even ish at least at the open. Let's 2273 01:59:32.720 --> 01:59:34.600 see what happens, you know, around ten thirty when we 2274 01:59:34.640 --> 01:59:36.720 all get our second cup of coffee'll the out comes right. 2275 01:59:36.840 --> 01:59:39.760 But at this point the market is recovering. And again 2276 01:59:39.800 --> 01:59:42.920 you mentioned Trump arrangement syndrome. The market hates question. It 2277 01:59:42.960 --> 01:59:46.239 doesn't necessarily hate any politician or any political beliefs. It 2278 01:59:46.319 --> 01:59:49.359 simply hates lack of clarity. And we have for sure 2279 01:59:49.479 --> 01:59:52.359 had lack of clarity over the past several months. And 2280 01:59:52.560 --> 01:59:55.079 that's what as we start to get these deals across 2281 01:59:55.119 --> 01:59:57.039 the finish line. That's what seems to be clearing up. 2282 01:59:57.239 --> 01:59:58.960 The other thing, too, is we're starting to hear some 2283 01:59:59.039 --> 02:00:02.439 pretty strong political voices say, hey, don't forget me, I 2284 02:00:02.600 --> 02:00:04.760 have to run for reelection here over the next few years. 2285 02:00:05.319 --> 02:00:09.079 Ted Cruz, Grassley and Ram paulse of being some of 2286 02:00:09.119 --> 02:00:11.239 those big voices who are going to remind the president 2287 02:00:11.439 --> 02:00:13.800 that they themselves are up and available to be re 2288 02:00:13.920 --> 02:00:15.960 elected and would very much like to win those elections. 2289 02:00:16.000 --> 02:00:18.000 So we can't keep smacking people around, right. 2290 02:00:18.119 --> 02:00:20.760 And then they're doing that budget reconciliation thing, and you've 2291 02:00:20.800 --> 02:00:23.119 got all everybody on the Republican side of the ledger 2292 02:00:23.159 --> 02:00:26.520 and they're hoping you have one hundred percent uniformity in 2293 02:00:26.640 --> 02:00:28.720 terms of a yes vote on that. They're all fighting 2294 02:00:28.800 --> 02:00:30.520 for turf and some of them want to keep the 2295 02:00:31.399 --> 02:00:33.560 salt deductions as they are. Some of them are saying, 2296 02:00:33.600 --> 02:00:35.880 if you don't raise those, we're going to pull the plug. 2297 02:00:35.960 --> 02:00:38.079 We're not going to vote yes on this. Others are 2298 02:00:38.119 --> 02:00:40.359 pushing to keep the Green New Deal stuff flowing to 2299 02:00:40.439 --> 02:00:42.239 their states other than saying no, we get rid of 2300 02:00:42.319 --> 02:00:44.600 all of it. So there's a whole lot of uncertainty 2301 02:00:44.680 --> 02:00:47.000 sewed into that particular thing, which includes whether or not 2302 02:00:47.119 --> 02:00:50.079 Donald Trump's tax cuts will be made permanent. So I 2303 02:00:50.199 --> 02:00:54.159 suppose those things might cause some market on stability for sure, 2304 02:00:54.319 --> 02:00:56.640 because somebody's going to win these arguments. Right now, we're 2305 02:00:56.720 --> 02:00:59.840 just in the shouting. Maybe we're starting to exit the 2306 02:00:59.880 --> 02:01:03.000 shouting stage and move toward the Okay, what are we 2307 02:01:03.119 --> 02:01:06.279 actually going to do here? And the various parties are 2308 02:01:06.359 --> 02:01:08.840 going to gain something as well as lose something. That's 2309 02:01:08.840 --> 02:01:11.239 the only way these things ever get resolved. But we're 2310 02:01:11.239 --> 02:01:14.039 going to have the willingness for that to actually happen. 2311 02:01:14.039 --> 02:01:14.239 Again. 2312 02:01:14.239 --> 02:01:16.000 We've seen that with UK. Apparently we're going to get 2313 02:01:16.000 --> 02:01:17.840 it with China here at least for the next ninety days. 2314 02:01:18.159 --> 02:01:20.279 And it does appear that all these tariffs and things 2315 02:01:21.039 --> 02:01:24.159 are more of a negotiating tactic than an intended, real 2316 02:01:24.279 --> 02:01:25.560 permanent type of a situation. 2317 02:01:26.000 --> 02:01:28.159 Which if that's the case, then so be it. 2318 02:01:28.319 --> 02:01:30.680 And I hope we'll come through this a little bit stronger, 2319 02:01:31.039 --> 02:01:32.800 but a little more bumpiness to come from the short 2320 02:01:32.840 --> 02:01:33.359 run for sure. 2321 02:01:33.520 --> 02:01:36.239 Indeed, well, we'll find out about well, something that may 2322 02:01:36.279 --> 02:01:39.239 impact your financial world.

One more segment Doing money Monday. 2363 02:03:39.760 --> 02:03:41.760 All right, real quick, I guess the writings on the wall. 2364 02:03:41.800 --> 02:03:43.439 Student loans are due. You knew they were going to 2365 02:03:43.479 --> 02:03:44.600 be due at some point when you sign on the 2366 02:03:44.640 --> 02:03:46.560 bottom line and promise to pay them back, but some 2367 02:03:46.640 --> 02:03:48.079 people think they were going to get a free pass 2368 02:03:48.119 --> 02:03:50.840 things to the Biden administrations ever to buy votes. Never 2369 02:03:50.960 --> 02:03:53.760 understood how this was so popular. I mean, majority of 2370 02:03:54.039 --> 02:03:57.000 people in America do not have college degrees, yet it 2371 02:03:57.079 --> 02:03:59.439 was on their shoulders. College degrees were going to be forgiven. 2372 02:03:59.520 --> 02:04:00.880 This is kind of common as a cost of the 2373 02:04:00.920 --> 02:04:05.000 American taxpayer, which just never seemed quite fair to me. Brian, Hey, 2374 02:04:05.039 --> 02:04:06.840 you may have got a degree and allows you one. 2375 02:04:06.880 --> 02:04:09.800 It didn't provide a return on investment, but you did it, 2376 02:04:09.880 --> 02:04:12.520 eyes wide open, and time to pay the piper. 2377 02:04:13.680 --> 02:04:14.600 Yeah, it's coming around. 2378 02:04:14.720 --> 02:04:16.920 So there's five million borrows out there whose loans are 2379 02:04:17.000 --> 02:04:20.159 in default, and about two hundred thousand of them are 2380 02:04:20.199 --> 02:04:23.479 going to start receiving notices from the Treasury Department notifying 2381 02:04:23.560 --> 02:04:25.520 them that benefits and tax refunds are going to be 2382 02:04:25.560 --> 02:04:27.880 withheld pretty soon, starting in the next month. 2383 02:04:28.159 --> 02:04:29.159 So we're just getting to the. 2384 02:04:29.199 --> 02:04:32.800 Point where, remember it was almost two years ago that 2385 02:04:32.880 --> 02:04:36.399 the Supreme Court struck down Biden's idea that we were 2386 02:04:36.439 --> 02:04:38.199 going to wipe away student loans. I did have a 2387 02:04:38.239 --> 02:04:39.720 lot of clients, I shouldn't say a lot of it, 2388 02:04:40.239 --> 02:04:42.720 enough that I remember talking about it who were helping 2389 02:04:42.760 --> 02:04:45.319 their kids with student loans, or perhaps had student loans 2390 02:04:45.359 --> 02:04:49.439 themselves only just recently with maybe this year or Q 2391 02:04:49.560 --> 02:04:51.359 four last year, who kind of gave up on the 2392 02:04:51.439 --> 02:04:52.960 notion that this was ever going to come around. So 2393 02:04:53.319 --> 02:04:55.079 people were still kind of hanging on to even though 2394 02:04:55.079 --> 02:04:58.039 the Supreme Court shot it down. Maybe politically, somebody else 2395 02:04:58.119 --> 02:05:00.960 is going to come forward with a well, we are 2396 02:05:01.000 --> 02:05:02.840 at the We're about as far away from that as 2397 02:05:02.840 --> 02:05:05.840 we can be. The people who are hearing today are 2398 02:05:05.880 --> 02:05:08.680 the ones who are getting payments from the federal government 2399 02:05:08.720 --> 02:05:12.760 for various reasons benefits, tax refunds, of course, and if 2400 02:05:12.800 --> 02:05:15.439 they are federal employees themselves, some of that is going 2401 02:05:15.479 --> 02:05:18.279 to start being withheld starting next month to make student 2402 02:05:18.359 --> 02:05:21.800 debt repayment a big priority for the Trump administration. 2403 02:05:21.560 --> 02:05:23.920 In a form of what wage garnishments correct. 2404 02:05:24.239 --> 02:05:26.159 Oh, yeah, lots of way you have the wage garnishments, 2405 02:05:26.279 --> 02:05:28.960 or if you are on another federal benefit pension, some 2406 02:05:29.079 --> 02:05:31.000 people are, believe it or not, Some people have student 2407 02:05:31.039 --> 02:05:32.800 loans and are also on a federal pension. They've let 2408 02:05:32.840 --> 02:05:34.520 them roll for years and years and years. If you're 2409 02:05:34.560 --> 02:05:37.239 getting payments from the federal government and you're in default 2410 02:05:37.319 --> 02:05:39.560 or near default on your student loans, you can rest 2411 02:05:39.560 --> 02:05:42.079 assured they're going to make that connection. That's part of 2412 02:05:42.159 --> 02:05:45.439 what DOGE has been doing, trying to connect the entities 2413 02:05:45.520 --> 02:05:48.800 that pay that send outgoing payments to people with the 2414 02:05:48.960 --> 02:05:51.680 other entities that are receiving payments. 2415 02:05:51.359 --> 02:05:51.920 From those people. 2416 02:05:51.960 --> 02:05:53.760 If you're on both of those lists, then they're going 2417 02:05:53.840 --> 02:05:55.600 to kind of net out the math and say, you 2418 02:05:55.680 --> 02:05:57.119 owe us this, so we're not going to give you 2419 02:05:57.199 --> 02:05:57.680 that payment. 2420 02:05:58.199 --> 02:05:58.399 Well. 2421 02:05:58.720 --> 02:06:02.600 I hope ultimately this results in some changes at universities 2422 02:06:02.640 --> 02:06:05.520 and that they have some somewhat of a fiduciary abligation 2423 02:06:05.640 --> 02:06:08.319 to sit young people down before they engage and embark 2424 02:06:08.359 --> 02:06:11.560 on this borrowing, to point out the value on the 2425 02:06:11.640 --> 02:06:14.560 real market of what that particular subject matter they plan 2426 02:06:14.680 --> 02:06:15.319 on majoring in. 2427 02:06:15.840 --> 02:06:16.039 Has. 2428 02:06:16.159 --> 02:06:18.720 I mean, is there a job before an art major? 2429 02:06:18.800 --> 02:06:20.680 Are you planning on going into debt one hundred and 2430 02:06:20.720 --> 02:06:23.439 fifty thousand dollars to get an art degree? I don't 2431 02:06:23.479 --> 02:06:25.920 want to pick on that particular degree, but I had 2432 02:06:25.960 --> 02:06:28.279 to imagine in the world, and I always us Southey's 2433 02:06:28.319 --> 02:06:30.880 as an example. There are only so many jobs available 2434 02:06:31.000 --> 02:06:34.760 at the at Southeast, and where are you going to work? 2435 02:06:34.800 --> 02:06:38.760 A lot of people work for free as docents in museums. 2436 02:06:38.840 --> 02:06:41.920 They don't get paid for it, So then the university 2437 02:06:42.000 --> 02:06:44.199 have some sort of obligation to point that out up front. 2438 02:06:45.800 --> 02:06:48.159 Yeah, and you would hope, but I don't think they do. 2439 02:06:48.479 --> 02:06:49.439 And I think back too. 2440 02:06:49.640 --> 02:06:51.439 So I went to a high university out in Athens, 2441 02:06:51.520 --> 02:06:54.000 and when I was finishing up, they were building what's 2442 02:06:54.039 --> 02:06:56.720 called the Ping Center, which is a nice student building 2443 02:06:56.720 --> 02:06:58.600 where you can exercise and all kinds of stuff. And 2444 02:06:59.119 --> 02:07:02.239 early on, before it even opened, they started hitting everybody 2445 02:07:02.319 --> 02:07:05.000 with a search charge on your tuition because somebody had 2446 02:07:05.039 --> 02:07:06.640 to pay for this. It wasn't going to open until 2447 02:07:06.680 --> 02:07:09.239 after my wife and I graduated, but we were paying 2448 02:07:09.279 --> 02:07:12.079 for it, and I remember there being articles in the 2449 02:07:12.159 --> 02:07:15.359 local paper about the fight that OU and every other 2450 02:07:15.439 --> 02:07:18.640 school has to be in to attract students. They have 2451 02:07:18.800 --> 02:07:21.119 to be able to say we have cooler facilities than 2452 02:07:21.199 --> 02:07:24.079 these other places. Good, bad are indifferent. People will pay 2453 02:07:24.199 --> 02:07:26.399 for it and that's what universities have done for twenty 2454 02:07:26.439 --> 02:07:28.439 and thirty years and longer than that. In one of 2455 02:07:28.479 --> 02:07:30.720 those articles was a story about one of these schools 2456 02:07:30.760 --> 02:07:33.359 that had a giant student hot tub, which just sounded 2457 02:07:33.399 --> 02:07:35.760 like the most disgusting thing. Even I, as an idiot 2458 02:07:35.840 --> 02:07:37.880 college student, was grossed out by that. Yeah, but that 2459 02:07:38.079 --> 02:07:41.199 was touted as an attraction. That's the environment that we've 2460 02:07:41.239 --> 02:07:42.039 been in for a long time. 2461 02:07:42.359 --> 02:07:45.159 It is, But I would think that them advertising their 2462 02:07:45.199 --> 02:07:48.479 success in getting people employed at graduation would be the 2463 02:07:48.520 --> 02:07:51.560 biggest dangling carret of incentive to go to any given university, 2464 02:07:52.000 --> 02:07:55.279 pivoting over market correction for housing? Is this a positive 2465 02:07:55.359 --> 02:07:59.319 market correction? Oh well, we'll see. So this is coming 2466 02:07:59.359 --> 02:07:59.880 out of Texas. 2467 02:08:00.000 --> 02:08:03.000 Texis is a little bit of a microcosm here undergoing 2468 02:08:03.039 --> 02:08:08.560 a significant correction, oversupplied, declining demand, and affordability issues listings. 2469 02:08:08.920 --> 02:08:12.239 Housing listings reached one hundred and twenty three thousand last April, 2470 02:08:12.239 --> 02:08:15.199 which is fifty three percent higher than normal. It's the 2471 02:08:15.399 --> 02:08:18.359 fourth most oversupplied housing market in the US. And I 2472 02:08:18.479 --> 02:08:20.279 remember I have a lot of people of friends of 2473 02:08:20.319 --> 02:08:23.439 mine who ended up moving to Dallas for job purposes. 2474 02:08:23.479 --> 02:08:26.640 There was a ton of jobs out there because that's 2475 02:08:26.760 --> 02:08:31.199 just the better tax situation, and also the idea that 2476 02:08:31.319 --> 02:08:33.479 there is so much land down there, it doesn't cost 2477 02:08:33.600 --> 02:08:36.199 much to just build a new neighborhood. So nobody, none 2478 02:08:36.239 --> 02:08:38.359 of these folks, I'm thinking over the past fifteen twenty years, 2479 02:08:38.520 --> 02:08:42.560 none of these folks were buying used well, old existing houses. 2480 02:08:42.600 --> 02:08:44.720 They were all building because it was just so cheap 2481 02:08:45.039 --> 02:08:47.039 because there is so much land and so much space 2482 02:08:47.119 --> 02:08:47.720 to build out there. 2483 02:08:48.000 --> 02:08:50.720 Well, Texas leaned into that. Now we have an oversupply, 2484 02:08:50.920 --> 02:08:53.560 so they're expecting the impact is going to be potential 2485 02:08:53.640 --> 02:08:56.800 four percent drop statewide in the value of houses looking 2486 02:08:56.840 --> 02:08:59.920 for affordability challenges are going to last throughout twenty twenty five, 2487 02:09:00.039 --> 02:09:02.479 and it's still going to be about overvalued by about 2488 02:09:02.520 --> 02:09:04.000 ten twelve percent by the end of the year. 2489 02:09:04.279 --> 02:09:06.720 Well, at least it's getting closer to the realm of 2490 02:09:06.760 --> 02:09:09.920 affordability for notably the first time buyers. I would argue, 2491 02:09:10.039 --> 02:09:11.840 but I think interest rates are going to have to 2492 02:09:11.880 --> 02:09:14.920 drop before some of these houses become really within the 2493 02:09:15.039 --> 02:09:18.680 grasp of financial reality for a lot of people. And 2494 02:09:18.760 --> 02:09:21.199 if that happens, of course, the market could flip then, 2495 02:09:21.239 --> 02:09:21.640 couldn't it. 2496 02:09:22.520 --> 02:09:25.479 Yeah, absolutely, and then it could turn pretty quickly because 2497 02:09:25.479 --> 02:09:28.800 that the forces that drove this migration to Texas. Remember 2498 02:09:28.960 --> 02:09:30.399 a few years ago, it didn't matter where we live. 2499 02:09:30.439 --> 02:09:32.039 We all got the idea, I can live wherever I want. 2500 02:09:32.239 --> 02:09:33.680 Some people said, the heck with it. I don't want 2501 02:09:33.680 --> 02:09:36.039 winter and I don't want taxis. I'll just go to Texas. 2502 02:09:36.359 --> 02:09:40.319 And that created a boom, and the builders overran the 2503 02:09:40.319 --> 02:09:42.720 boom and just kept building, building building until the actual 2504 02:09:42.760 --> 02:09:43.399 demand stopped. 2505 02:09:43.600 --> 02:09:46.239 Demand stop when people realize when they moved there, Damn, 2506 02:09:46.279 --> 02:09:50.319 it's hot here. It's really really in the right. Why 2507 02:09:50.399 --> 02:09:53.159 did I move to Houston. It's like walking through of 2508 02:09:53.279 --> 02:09:57.159 hot water in the summertime. Brian James always financial, appreciate 2509 02:09:57.199 --> 02:09:58.600 them loading you out every Monday for money. 2510 02:09:58.640 --> 02:09:58.880 Monday. 2511 02:09:58.920 --> 02:10:00.720 I look forward to next Monday.

Empower you America dot org. 2552 02:11:47.880 --> 02:11:49.279 And I know my listeners are going to be keen 2553 02:11:49.439 --> 02:11:51.800 and interested in this particular one. Welcome to the fifty 2554 02:11:51.800 --> 02:11:56.319 five KRC Morning Show. Doctor Robert Malone an internationally recognized scientists, physician, 2555 02:11:56.439 --> 02:12:00.520 bestselling author, ethicist, political commentator of public figure. He spoke 2556 02:12:00.720 --> 02:12:04.279 out early about the risk associated with COVID nineteen vaccines 2557 02:12:04.560 --> 02:12:08.800 and against public health and medical mandates, actively campaigning against 2558 02:12:08.840 --> 02:12:11.960 censorship and propaganda campaigns led by the governments and globalists. 2559 02:12:12.239 --> 02:12:14.560 And of course we've talked to other guests who struggled 2560 02:12:14.640 --> 02:12:17.760 and suffered themselves as a consequence of them speaking truth 2561 02:12:17.800 --> 02:12:20.680 to power. Some of them had their licenses pulled. Welcome 2562 02:12:20.720 --> 02:12:22.760 to the fifty five Case Morning Show, doing the Empower 2563 02:12:22.800 --> 02:12:26.479 Youth Seminar tomorrow night, beginning at seven pm. Doctor Malone, 2564 02:12:26.520 --> 02:12:28.439 it's a pleasure to have you here on the program today. 2565 02:12:30.039 --> 02:12:32.479 Well thanks for having me on. I hope it's a 2566 02:12:32.520 --> 02:12:34.720 great day where you are. It's looking like we're going 2567 02:12:34.760 --> 02:12:36.359 to get a little bit of rain here in Virginia. 2568 02:12:37.279 --> 02:12:38.279 So what do you want to talk about. 2569 02:12:38.439 --> 02:12:41.800 I want to talk about moderna doing mass clinical trials 2570 02:12:41.920 --> 02:12:44.760 on the entire universe of people here in the world 2571 02:12:45.199 --> 02:12:48.920 with untested vaccines. As you point out, emergency use authorization 2572 02:12:49.119 --> 02:12:51.039 was given because oh my god, it's a pandemic. We 2573 02:12:51.119 --> 02:12:53.960 got to let these vaccines come out because we need 2574 02:12:54.079 --> 02:12:57.880 them to stave off this pandemic. But we're going to 2575 02:12:57.960 --> 02:13:01.239 free the pharmaceutical companies from any live associated with these. 2576 02:13:01.760 --> 02:13:03.439 As you point out, and I know you're going to 2577 02:13:03.479 --> 02:13:06.880 talk about at length tomorrow evening, these were not tested 2578 02:13:06.920 --> 02:13:09.920 and what I learned from your materials is that they 2579 02:13:09.960 --> 02:13:14.039 had tried mRNA technology and they had failed and never 2580 02:13:14.119 --> 02:13:17.319 could get FDA approval. When they started using them and 2581 02:13:17.600 --> 02:13:20.880 endeavoring to treat other conditions they were working on. Can 2582 02:13:20.960 --> 02:13:23.079 you explain a little bit of that to my listening audience. 2583 02:13:25.000 --> 02:13:29.720 So, Maderna's business model was originally focused on cancer and 2584 02:13:29.880 --> 02:13:34.560 cancer vaccines. And you'll recall this is the area that 2585 02:13:35.039 --> 02:13:41.760 was highlighted during the first day after President Trump became president, 2586 02:13:42.560 --> 02:13:46.880 when there was the whole discussion and controversy around the 2587 02:13:47.000 --> 02:13:55.119 Stargate initiative for artificial intelligence. The promise, let's say or 2588 02:13:55.279 --> 02:14:00.119 hope and we all wish that we had something like 2589 02:14:00.199 --> 02:14:04.399 a personalized cancer vaccine that would take away our risk 2590 02:14:04.560 --> 02:14:12.560 of this deadly disease. But the history of cancer vaccines 2591 02:14:13.399 --> 02:14:18.600 has been one of, let's say, gently broken promises or 2592 02:14:20.279 --> 02:14:25.640 dashed hopes. And that's a very long history of decades, 2593 02:14:25.720 --> 02:14:30.920 literally my entire career. And there are fundamental underlying issues 2594 02:14:31.039 --> 02:14:35.039 having to do with the role of the immune system 2595 02:14:35.119 --> 02:14:42.920 human immune system, which basically is our main defense against cancer, 2596 02:14:43.039 --> 02:14:45.840 particularly cellular immunity. And I don't want to get too 2597 02:14:45.920 --> 02:14:51.600 deep into the science here for Radio Hit, but it 2598 02:14:51.760 --> 02:14:54.720 turns out that things are a lot more complicated than 2599 02:14:55.560 --> 02:14:59.159 Wall Street investors are often sold on. But it's a 2600 02:14:59.239 --> 02:15:04.920 reliably the potent strategy to try to pitch these cancer 2601 02:15:05.000 --> 02:15:11.439 vaccine companies. So that's where Maderna started, and predictably that 2602 02:15:11.680 --> 02:15:17.920 business model failed and they really only got rescued when 2603 02:15:19.079 --> 02:15:24.439 Tony Fauci, largely with the NIH Vaccine Research Center, together 2604 02:15:24.640 --> 02:15:32.319 with backing from DARPA Defense or Reduction Agency, and a 2605 02:15:32.760 --> 02:15:34.760 number of others. Now we know us A, i D, 2606 02:15:35.439 --> 02:15:42.319 pushed forward these mRNA products I'm going to call them 2607 02:15:43.399 --> 02:15:52.960 for ostensibly preventing COVID disease. And unfortunately those products were 2608 02:15:54.159 --> 02:16:03.159 promoted without adequate pre clinical or clinical studies that normally 2609 02:16:03.199 --> 02:16:09.439 would take up to a decade, and not too surprisingly 2610 02:16:09.920 --> 02:16:16.439 a number of unexpected consequences let's say, you know, the 2611 02:16:16.520 --> 02:16:19.800 technical term would be adverse events which include death by 2612 02:16:19.800 --> 02:16:26.159 the way ensued and nobody was allowed to question it, 2613 02:16:27.000 --> 02:16:31.439 and nobody was provided informed consent. I think the most 2614 02:16:32.000 --> 02:16:34.600 powerful statement I've heard come out of d C about 2615 02:16:34.639 --> 02:16:40.000 all this was a Secretary Hegsworth, the Defense Secretary of Defense. 2616 02:16:40.079 --> 02:16:46.000 Hegsworth's comment that these were never licensed, the products that 2617 02:16:46.040 --> 02:16:50.319 were deployed in the d D, and these mandates were illegal. 2618 02:16:51.879 --> 02:16:57.319 So that's that's where things stand right now. DC remains 2619 02:16:57.360 --> 02:17:02.680 in deny, denial over what they have their fingers all over. 2620 02:17:02.799 --> 02:17:07.120 I mean, Tony Fauci didn't do this in a vacuum. 2621 02:17:07.639 --> 02:17:12.399 It was actively enabled by many powerful people in both 2622 02:17:12.479 --> 02:17:13.159 houses in it. 2623 02:17:14.360 --> 02:17:18.079 I'm troubled by so much of this information, and I 2624 02:17:18.200 --> 02:17:20.600 have been for a while. But as you point out, 2625 02:17:21.280 --> 02:17:22.879 and you're going to talk about this again tomorrow night, 2626 02:17:22.959 --> 02:17:25.959 seven pm in Poweroamerica dot org, they had tried these 2627 02:17:26.479 --> 02:17:29.639 RNA based treatments on a variety of different things, maybe 2628 02:17:29.680 --> 02:17:32.159 cancer is one of them, as you're suggesting before, at 2629 02:17:32.239 --> 02:17:34.399 the animal testing phase, and they had to stop them 2630 02:17:34.440 --> 02:17:36.920 because they were far too dangerous to test on humans. 2631 02:17:37.360 --> 02:17:41.120 Is it the RNA type of vaccine that in and 2632 02:17:41.200 --> 02:17:43.639 of itself poses these challenges or that just that they 2633 02:17:43.719 --> 02:17:46.239 didn't get it right as to whatever particular disease state 2634 02:17:46.280 --> 02:17:49.600 they were working on. Because if all this information suggests 2635 02:17:49.719 --> 02:17:53.440 mRNA based treatments are dangerous, why in the hell would 2636 02:17:53.479 --> 02:17:56.159 they push to advance them on the general population. 2637 02:17:58.280 --> 02:18:01.200 So, in terms of your question, it's kind of all 2638 02:18:01.280 --> 02:18:04.559 of the above, and particularly in a case of COVID, 2639 02:18:04.719 --> 02:18:08.440 because clearly the spike protein is E toxin and that's 2640 02:18:08.479 --> 02:18:13.559 another thing that was suppressed, considered controversial, not allowed to 2641 02:18:13.639 --> 02:18:19.120 be said. But it's true. It's another unfortunate truth. But 2642 02:18:20.719 --> 02:18:23.639 you ask why why all the impetus for this is 2643 02:18:23.680 --> 02:18:26.559 a number of them, and one of them is that 2644 02:18:26.719 --> 02:18:36.040 this represents a whole new domain for product development, which 2645 02:18:36.120 --> 02:18:40.600 basically creates a gold rush for pharma because they can 2646 02:18:41.440 --> 02:18:46.239 circumvent prior art and prior patents by using this new 2647 02:18:46.920 --> 02:18:52.879 technology or composition of matter, which is now freely available 2648 02:18:53.000 --> 02:18:56.760 because the patents that I worked on back in the 2649 02:18:56.879 --> 02:19:00.280 late eighties and early nineties have all expired. So the 2650 02:19:00.399 --> 02:19:07.520 fundamental underlying tech that underpins all of this is now 2651 02:19:08.719 --> 02:19:12.120 public domain because the patents have expired. So for pharma, 2652 02:19:12.799 --> 02:19:16.399 this is a gold rush. And the positioning has been 2653 02:19:16.680 --> 02:19:23.440 from the let's say, by defense industrial complex that this 2654 02:19:23.799 --> 02:19:28.399 technology will scratch there it solve a major pain point, 2655 02:19:29.079 --> 02:19:31.399 which is that it takes up to a decade to 2656 02:19:31.520 --> 02:19:35.559 develop a new vaccine, and that it's the combination of 2657 02:19:35.600 --> 02:19:40.040 those two things, the gold rush and pharmacy perception that 2658 02:19:40.159 --> 02:19:46.000 this represents a whole big area of commercial opportunity, and 2659 02:19:46.479 --> 02:19:50.879 the logic that this solves this huge problem that it 2660 02:19:51.040 --> 02:19:54.799 takes a decade to develop a new vaccine and we're 2661 02:19:54.920 --> 02:19:59.120 constantly bombarded by all this fear promoted fear from the 2662 02:19:59.239 --> 02:20:05.200 industry that we're going to get overwhelmed by highly pathogenic 2663 02:20:05.319 --> 02:20:10.360 infectious diseases coming out of the jungle because of global warming. 2664 02:20:10.399 --> 02:20:11.639 I mean, the narrative just goes. 2665 02:20:11.520 --> 02:20:14.200 On, Oh yeah, I've heard it all before. Or you 2666 02:20:14.280 --> 02:20:16.680 build them in a in a wuhan instead of virology 2667 02:20:16.680 --> 02:20:18.879 and you unleash them on the globe by accident or 2668 02:20:18.920 --> 02:20:22.600 by intention. Now, but if these mRNA vaccines are inherently 2669 02:20:22.719 --> 02:20:25.040 dangerous or post them inherently dangerous risks based on the 2670 02:20:25.079 --> 02:20:28.159 technology is being used, they're not necessarily going to get 2671 02:20:28.200 --> 02:20:31.600 emergency use authorization for any new vaccines they roll out. 2672 02:20:31.639 --> 02:20:34.200 Those will be subject to obligations to do clinical trials, 2673 02:20:34.239 --> 02:20:36.639 and if history is any guide, then they'll probably fail 2674 02:20:36.680 --> 02:20:38.559 in the clinical trials and never be rolled out. 2675 02:20:38.719 --> 02:20:40.120 Isn't that sort of true? 2676 02:20:41.600 --> 02:20:45.600 Well, so this is why all of the uproar over 2677 02:20:46.200 --> 02:20:53.159 the HHS and Bobby Kennedy and Martin McCarty initiatives that 2678 02:20:53.520 --> 02:20:56.719 all new vaccines are going to have to be tested 2679 02:20:56.760 --> 02:21:01.399 against a true placebo or negative control. Right. The industry 2680 02:21:01.719 --> 02:21:06.440 hates this because they have been masking some of the 2681 02:21:06.600 --> 02:21:09.920 adverse events associated with a wide variety of vaccines which 2682 02:21:09.959 --> 02:21:15.000 are intrinsically inflammatory by comparing them to other vaccines rather 2683 02:21:15.079 --> 02:21:18.239 than comparing them to a true control This is the 2684 02:21:18.559 --> 02:21:23.000 book Turtles All the Way Down, is just a fantastic 2685 02:21:23.239 --> 02:21:27.920 discussion of how this has been built and what the 2686 02:21:28.040 --> 02:21:31.559 modern consequences are. It's kind of a house of cards 2687 02:21:31.639 --> 02:21:34.159 that's been built up over decades. And I got to 2688 02:21:34.159 --> 02:21:37.680 admit I bought into that. I bought into the logic 2689 02:21:37.799 --> 02:21:42.760 that it was unethical to test a new vaccine against 2690 02:21:42.799 --> 02:21:45.840 a true placebo. This is what I've been taught again 2691 02:21:45.920 --> 02:21:49.319 and again and again. It was all drilled into you. 2692 02:21:50.040 --> 02:21:54.079 But I've come to recognize that that was wrong, that ethically, 2693 02:21:54.479 --> 02:21:55.959 that logic is flawed. 2694 02:21:57.079 --> 02:22:00.879 I certainly understand that that's where the control population is 2695 02:22:00.879 --> 02:22:02.799 supposed to come from, so you can compare it against 2696 02:22:02.799 --> 02:22:05.319 the general public who have not gotten the new vaccine. 2697 02:22:05.879 --> 02:22:07.840 Oh my god, doctor, you know I could talk to 2698 02:22:07.840 --> 02:22:09.639 you for hours. I think, Doctor Malone, we're going to 2699 02:22:09.680 --> 02:22:12.280 get an hour and change tomorrow night, seven pm. And 2700 02:22:12.399 --> 02:22:14.200 I know, for example, red flag for you have to 2701 02:22:14.200 --> 02:22:16.680 address it. A lot of my listeners believe this this 2702 02:22:16.840 --> 02:22:20.159 was rolled out for the purposes of population control. I've 2703 02:22:20.200 --> 02:22:22.879 talked to some physicians who know about thousands of patients 2704 02:22:22.920 --> 02:22:25.559 who lost their babies in utero and mothers of head 2705 02:22:25.600 --> 02:22:28.959 at menstrual problems and things along. So is perhaps something 2706 02:22:29.120 --> 02:22:29.920 is there a connection there? 2707 02:22:30.000 --> 02:22:30.319 Perhaps? 2708 02:22:32.680 --> 02:22:36.239 So my position on that is, at first, you know, 2709 02:22:36.479 --> 02:22:39.879 like I used to say that the Great Reset, I 2710 02:22:40.000 --> 02:22:42.600 used to think the Great Reset was a conspiracy theory, 2711 02:22:42.639 --> 02:22:47.680 and then I read Klaus Schwab's book called the Great Reset. Yeah, right, Okay, 2712 02:22:47.760 --> 02:22:52.479 so it is population control a conspiracy? If you read 2713 02:22:53.280 --> 02:22:59.000 the Henry Kissinger report that is now a fundamental aspect, 2714 02:22:59.159 --> 02:23:04.000 it is integrated into American foreign policy that talks about 2715 02:23:04.799 --> 02:23:10.559 population control, you'll realize that this is a real thing. Okay, 2716 02:23:10.639 --> 02:23:18.479 that the connecting that federal policy position about really depopulation 2717 02:23:19.760 --> 02:23:24.440 to what happened here is speculation. 2718 02:23:24.879 --> 02:23:27.280 Its speculation, but it's but it's a it's a logical 2719 02:23:27.399 --> 02:23:28.799 leap for people out there. 2720 02:23:28.920 --> 02:23:33.200 And I wish I can fully understand why people make 2721 02:23:33.280 --> 02:23:38.440 that connection, but uh it, it has all kinds of implications, 2722 02:23:39.200 --> 02:23:44.200 and uh until personally, until I see you know, some 2723 02:23:44.840 --> 02:23:49.639 email proof, right, Uh, then then I'm going to kind 2724 02:23:49.680 --> 02:23:50.920 of hold hold, keep your. 2725 02:23:50.840 --> 02:23:53.559 Power, keep your powder dry.
