Well, Trump announces the big, beautiful 131 00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:53.000 Golden Dome. 132 00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:57.959 It's the new dome to. 133 00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:00.720 Protect the big beautiful country against the big beautiful enemies 134 00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:04.240 who are going to launch their big beautiful missiles at US. 135 00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:07.519 And it's much like the Patriot Missile system in Israel, 136 00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:09.199 which United States provides. 137 00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:13.079 By the way, the Iron Dome, Yeah. 138 00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:14.639 Well gold is a soft metal. I just want that 139 00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:15.600 on the Yeah. 140 00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:20.360 But everything, listen, have you seen the way Donald Trump lives. 141 00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:22.360 I mean he is a little baroque. I would not 142 00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:28.800 say that his tastes in living arrangements understated elegance. He 143 00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:34.240 just likes a lot of baroken gold, So I'm not surprised. Also, 144 00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:36.120 it refers to the United States, so I mean there's 145 00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:39.439 there's a reason he does all that. But it's now 146 00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:42.959 going to be the Golden Dome space missile defense one 147 00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:45.879 hundred and seventy five billion dollars while we have no 148 00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:49.639 money and we are going broke and we're looking at 149 00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:55.360 what two trillion dollars in deficit right now because at 150 00:06:55.399 --> 00:07:00.160 the same time, the Big Beautiful Tax Act is cutting 151 00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:03.920 a lot a lot of programs. But I think the 152 00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:09.360 big Beautiful Dome or Golden Dome will somehow deal. 153 00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:12.160 With the big beautiful budget. 154 00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.519 It's sort of we'll talk more about it later on 155 00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:17.839 because it seems a little contradictory, doesn't it, all of it? 156 00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:19.399 Yeah, it just doesn't make any sense. 157 00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:22.759 We're trying to save money, cut out, you know, waste, 158 00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:25.680 but this says over five hundred and forty two billion 159 00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:26.920 over the next twenty years. 160 00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:29.519 That's crazy, all right. 161 00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:33.480 Speaking of President Trump, he is on Capitol Hill right 162 00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:37.480 now stumping for that big, beautiful bill, and he kind 163 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:42.360 of had a little bit of a warning for GOP holdouts. 164 00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:45.519 Somebody asked him, you know, if they're going to face 165 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:49.680 any challenges and he said possibly in the primary. And 166 00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:52.439 he said possibly when he was talking to reporters, So 167 00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:54.759 might kind of perceive that to be a little bit 168 00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:55.279 of a threat. 169 00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:59.959 Yeah, that's no idle threat.

So everyone 197 00:09:25.240 --> 00:09:28.679 is kind of coming or at least trying to make 198 00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:32.879 an effort to keep entertainment jobs local. You've got production 199 00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:37.039 going and relocating to other states, other nations, and I 200 00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:40.120 personally think this is a big deal. The Mayor's executive 201 00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:45.039 order direct city departments to one lower filming costs, speed 202 00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:50.080 up permitt reviews that give crews easier access to popular locations. 203 00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:51.759 You know, all these places we have here in LA 204 00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:52.759 like Griffith. 205 00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:58.120 Observatory, the Central Library, Port of La and also a 206 00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:00.679 cool thing which is a lot of city staff were 207 00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:03.159 required on set, and they're backing off on a lot 208 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:03.919 of that as well. 209 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:07.600 So I totally agree, except when they are filming on 210 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:11.120 my street and going up the Persian Palace. There was 211 00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:14.120 one major street, one house of which two times a 212 00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:16.639 week there would be filming there. 213 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:20.440 And come on, guys, you know, I mean. 214 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:23.039 It's but it's part of the it's part of the industry. 215 00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:23.919 I don't care. 216 00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:25.720 It's on my way to my house and they want 217 00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:29.600 I'd be okay if they let me crash the craft's table. 218 00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:31.559 Where I could get food, you'd get free snacks. 219 00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:35.159 Yeah, and they and they won't let me. So after that, 220 00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:36.559 you know, no thanks. 221 00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:39.440 We get scouted all the time. We just got scouted 222 00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.759 for a new film. But we've they've used our house 223 00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:46.519 for filming and they're you know, very good at Oh. 224 00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:48.559 You have your house, so you've made money on it. 225 00:10:49.200 --> 00:10:52.840 Yeah. Wow, yea, this next one would be great if 226 00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:54.519 it ends up happening, but who knows. 227 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:56.039 Okay, what do you get for it? 228 00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:59.039 By the way, it depends, It depends how long. 229 00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:01.279 The last one it was only a couple of days, 230 00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:05.000 I think, And I don't know it's five six grand. 231 00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:07.840 It's like two days. And they didn't even use the inside. 232 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:08.799 It was just the outside. 233 00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:11.240 Wow, if you get you can. 234 00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:14.159 But as much as it is about that, because you've 235 00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:17.240 got to protect your home and all that, but it 236 00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:21.919 really is about keeping these jobs in town. And they 237 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:25.240 used to film in my area constantly, and I loved 238 00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:27.759 it because you knew it was going to the city 239 00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:28.679 and that's great. 240 00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:31.519 Meantime they were getting my way, so me going home. 241 00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:33.559 So you know, I don't care if they. 242 00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:37.600 Well, I'm sorry, film, yeah, and television, Trump's radio. 243 00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:41.639 Yeah, well certainly it does. But do I get in 244 00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:44.080 people's way? Am I at your house? 245 00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:48.559 Am I stopping you from going to work? I am not? Okay? 246 00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:51.639 All right, So new details are coming out about the 247 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:55.080 New Orleans jail break. A jail worker has been charged 248 00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:59.000 after admitting he helped the inmates escape. It was a 249 00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:02.120 maintenance worker and he's been arrested as being held on 250 00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:03.799 one point one million dollars bond. 251 00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:08.960 Yeah, and there's clearly no dress code for workers in 252 00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:09.519 that prison. 253 00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:11.799 That's for starters. 254 00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:15.240 And he claims that he was threatened to be shanked 255 00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:16.120 if he didn't do. 256 00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:17.360 That, that's his defense. 257 00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:21.399 And they threatened to be shanked every single day. 258 00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:24.000 I think so he could have reported, He could have 259 00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:28.759 reported it and now what. So they probably would have 260 00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:30.639 just transferred him to another part of the prison, and 261 00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:32.480 I don't know, maybe his life would have been at stake. 262 00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:36.879 It's pretty crazy there. And these were bad guys that escaped. 263 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:41.159 Also one of them where they wrote remember too easy 264 00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:46.919 too and then easy lol. So he they found him 265 00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:50.240 back at the college where he took English classes and graduated. 266 00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:55.399 All he had to do is give a heads up 267 00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:57.960 to the guys in the in the counter at the towers, 268 00:12:58.200 --> 00:12:59.960 say hey, they're going to be breaking out at this time. 269 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:01.799 It's going to come out that he knowed like maybe 270 00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:05.000 his friends with them. I think you don't just do 271 00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:07.720 that to have murderers like so many of them. 272 00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:09.879 Again, you know, if you don't help me, I'm gonna 273 00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:11.919 shank you kind of thing. But how often has that happen. 274 00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:14.679 That's what they told me this morning. Get in here. 275 00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:15.639 We're going to shank you. 276 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:22.679 Finial, We're very tough here. Uh Two. 277 00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:27.480 Ukraine, Kiev's European allies are now stepping in and slapping 278 00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:31.399 new sanctions just yesterday on Moscow. This is after the 279 00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:37.600 phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin produced anything 280 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:40.639 major really on this three year old ward. 281 00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:42.000 They're in Ukraine. 282 00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:45.799 So the new European Union sanctions are going to target 283 00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:49.360 what they refer to as shadow fleet, these ships two 284 00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:53.879 hundred or so ships from Russia that are illicitly transporting 285 00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:56.360 oil and things like that to kind of skirt the 286 00:13:56.399 --> 00:13:57.480 Western restrictions. 287 00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:59.200 So they're saying, well, we're stepping in down. 288 00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:02.080 I don't know what more they can do other than 289 00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:06.960 stop the ships on the high seas, which Putin would 290 00:14:06.960 --> 00:14:11.399 consider an active piracy, or stop the countries from receiving 291 00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:13.720 the oil which they're getting at a huge discount from 292 00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:16.840 Russia under the table. And so I don't know where 293 00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:20.240 they can go with sanctions. Sanctions are very interesting. Sanctions 294 00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:24.120 go all the way from individuals. You can't do business 295 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:26.759 in the United States, you can't travel in the United States, 296 00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:28.360 and if you have any money, we're going to freeze 297 00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:35.360 it to companies up to entire sectors of the economy. So, 298 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:39.879 for example, the sector, the oil sector has been sanctioned. 299 00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:46.200 Russia cannot sell oil on the international open market, and 300 00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:50.240 there is a clearing house where money is paid called SWIFT. 301 00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:54.759 It's like a bank clearing house, and that's where countries 302 00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:59.440 buy oil from each other, so it goes through this Swift. Well, 303 00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:04.120 Russia has been kicked out as Swift as well as Iran, 304 00:15:04.600 --> 00:15:07.519 so they have to sell under the table. So the 305 00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:11.639 sanctions on that one is entire sectors, and that is 306 00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:15.799 really nails these countries. The fact that some oligarch has 307 00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:18.519 been sanctioned and he can't cut, he can't get a visa. 308 00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:19.600 To come in the United States. Come on, give me 309 00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:21.120 a break. Really serious stuff. 310 00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:25.919 So we'll see how much more sanctions that Europe can 311 00:15:25.960 --> 00:15:27.960 give or the rest of the world can. 312 00:15:29.200 --> 00:15:30.279 Nail against Russia. 313 00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:35.159 So we're getting more details on Joe Biden's health reports. 314 00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:39.080 Apparently USA today is reporting his last known blood test 315 00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:44.519 to screen for prostate cancer was in twenty fourteen. I 316 00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:46.840 read through this and I don't see where they're actually 317 00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:49.320 getting that information from. But they're saying that it was 318 00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:53.360 seven years before he became president. And of course Biden 319 00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:56.320 was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer. 320 00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:56.639 Yeah. 321 00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:00.480 Now, to be fair Biden, and we're gonna talk Gym 322 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:03.200 later on about this. Jim Keeney is coming aboard for 323 00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:04.639 Medical News. 324 00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:05.399 At eight thirty. 325 00:16:05.799 --> 00:16:11.799 When is it appropriate to test for the PSA, which, 326 00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:14.240 by the way, was bought by Southwest Airlines. 327 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:18.919 You know that, don't you?

It makes 334 00:16:39.720 --> 00:16:42.200 no sense, right, Yeah, it moves so slowly, and he 335 00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:44.919 got it just as he turned seventy two, so he 336 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:46.480 was within the parameters. 337 00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:49.679 And then you have to give you know, as much. 338 00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:52.759 As we make fun of Donald Trump, he just misspoke 339 00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:55.120 Grade nine cancer. 340 00:16:54.759 --> 00:16:56.000 Which doesn't exist. 341 00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:00.039 It was a Gleason's score of nine, which is a 342 00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:03.679 form that's where they it's not just it's not just 343 00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:06.839 first stage, second stage or a Gleason score.

The mortality 367 00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:14.319 is the same.
