00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919
<v Speaker 1>This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI

2
00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.360
<v Speaker 1>A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on

3
00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:11.800
<v Speaker 1>demand on the iHeartRadio app. But one of my favorite

4
00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:15.000
<v Speaker 1>memories from my wedding where I probably wouldn't have said

5
00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:17.280
<v Speaker 1>play Shout because it is a hack wedding song.

6
00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:18.440
<v Speaker 2>It's played at every wedding.

7
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:22.839
<v Speaker 1>One of my favorite memories is my uncle who's now dead,

8
00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:28.000
<v Speaker 1>God Rest the soul, Uncle Jim dancing going to that

9
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:31.239
<v Speaker 1>song and getting everybody at the wedding to dance to

10
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:34.960
<v Speaker 1>that song and him basically doing a grand plier.

11
00:00:36.759 --> 00:00:41.000
<v Speaker 2>What a grand plier, you know what I'm talking about.

12
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:42.799
<v Speaker 1>Like, there's this point of the song of the Shout

13
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:45.000
<v Speaker 1>where it gets really softer and you kind of shrink

14
00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:47.079
<v Speaker 1>down to the floor like you do at a wedding,

15
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:51.679
<v Speaker 1>and my uncle Jim Man, he dropped it like it

16
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:54.840
<v Speaker 1>was damn hot and got right back up again.

17
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 2>It was incredible.

18
00:00:58.119 --> 00:00:59.920
<v Speaker 3>Well, if it feels different today, it's because we have

19
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:04.519
<v Speaker 3>tariffs now. They took effect overnight. Business executives warning of

20
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:08.120
<v Speaker 3>potential recession. Some of the top US trading partners are

21
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:11.280
<v Speaker 3>retaliating with their own import taxes. The stock market has

22
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:14.680
<v Speaker 3>been uh the I've never seen this word before, at

23
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:15.840
<v Speaker 3>least in this context.

24
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:17.920
<v Speaker 4>It's been quivering today.

25
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:21.840
<v Speaker 3>The Dow is back and forth, up and down, positive

26
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:25.400
<v Speaker 3>and negative. Right now it's back positive by about three

27
00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:27.760
<v Speaker 3>hundred and eighty points. Sm P five hundred is up

28
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.879
<v Speaker 3>sixty six points. Nasdaq is up three forty two. I

29
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.799
<v Speaker 3>mentioned that as of right now, gold is the biggest mover.

30
00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:38.519
<v Speaker 3>Gold is up one hundred and twenty dollars an ounce.

31
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:41.920
<v Speaker 3>It's now over thirty one hundred dollars for an ounce

32
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:42.439
<v Speaker 3>of gold.

33
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:42.920
<v Speaker 4>Well.

34
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:45.439
<v Speaker 1>The family is continuing to mourn the loss of their

35
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:48.599
<v Speaker 1>thirteen year old son. This is the little boy who

36
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:51.519
<v Speaker 1>was reported missing last Sunday from the valley went to

37
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>his soccer coach's house in Lancaster, a guy that the

38
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:58.760
<v Speaker 1>family had had in their home, a trusted soccer coach,

39
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:02.439
<v Speaker 1>travel soccer coach. Thirteen year old boy Oscar, very talented

40
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:05.120
<v Speaker 1>soccer player. The family came here from Al Salvadora a

41
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:10.520
<v Speaker 1>couple of years ago. Ends up that the body is

42
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:14.199
<v Speaker 1>found up there near Oxnard. The soccer coach even helped

43
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:16.960
<v Speaker 1>look for the little boy when he was still in

44
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:22.439
<v Speaker 1>the missing category. That's how close he was with the family. Well,

45
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:27.479
<v Speaker 1>now we're learning that this guy assaulted a fourteen year

46
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.400
<v Speaker 1>old boy back in December of twenty twenty two. So

47
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>if he was charged sooner, would Oscar still be alive?

48
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:38.240
<v Speaker 1>That was the question on the table to the DA

49
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:39.840
<v Speaker 1>in La County. Nathan Hawkman.

50
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:42.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

51
00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:44.960
<v Speaker 3>Channel seven was able to ask him that question, and

52
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:45.960
<v Speaker 3>here was the response.

53
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:48.560
<v Speaker 5>So why just now.

54
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:51.039
<v Speaker 4>Are we seeing charges filed in this twenty twenty two case.

55
00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:54.800
<v Speaker 6>When we got the case, we asked for additional interviews,

56
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:59.919
<v Speaker 6>We asked for additional forensic evidence to be analyzed and completed,

57
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:05.599
<v Speaker 6>and unfortunately that the additional interviews were not finalized until

58
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:06.400
<v Speaker 6>very recently.

59
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:09.360
<v Speaker 4>Was there ever a ball dropped there? Yeah, because it

60
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:11.800
<v Speaker 4>does seem like that happened long ago and the timing.

61
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:14.639
<v Speaker 3>Some may say, well, well, it's interesting charges were just

62
00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:18.680
<v Speaker 3>filed on that yesterday after the DA.

63
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:22.960
<v Speaker 7>Often, in order to get to the completion of the case,

64
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:29.919
<v Speaker 7>the individuals involved in the case have to be at

65
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:33.439
<v Speaker 7>a point at which they're willing to fully come forward

66
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:37.840
<v Speaker 7>and provide all the information that we need in order

67
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:39.520
<v Speaker 7>to make prosecutorial decision.

68
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:44.080
<v Speaker 6>That didn't happen fully until yesterday.

69
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.840
<v Speaker 3>He's so infuriating on many many levels here. I mean,

70
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:53.360
<v Speaker 3>let's start with the fact that that sources have been

71
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:56.120
<v Speaker 3>telling media outlets throughout LA that this guy was in

72
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:58.479
<v Speaker 3>the country illegally. You could start you could just start

73
00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:01.400
<v Speaker 3>right with that one, okay, but that this guy's been

74
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:04.039
<v Speaker 3>here long enough that he's been able to develop relationships,

75
00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:06.639
<v Speaker 3>that there are enough people that know about this guy,

76
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 3>that neighbors had said, yeah, you know, he always seemed

77
00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:11.479
<v Speaker 3>to have kids around the house, but he didn't have

78
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:12.039
<v Speaker 3>any kids.

79
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:13.120
<v Speaker 4>Apparently he married.

80
00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:16.839
<v Speaker 1>Apparently according to his social media it's littered with pictures

81
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.959
<v Speaker 1>of him and kids at his house, and him coaching soccer,

82
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:21.399
<v Speaker 1>and him with more kids, and.

83
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:24.319
<v Speaker 2>He was here illegally. Does that play into anything?

84
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:27.519
<v Speaker 1>Did this get to the desk, a desk of George

85
00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Gascone and his underlings who would protect the legal immigrants?

86
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but there's so many dropped balls here.

87
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:40.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, twenty twenty two, when did Hawkman come into

88
00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:40.560
<v Speaker 1>the office.

89
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:41.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm just trying to.

90
00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Say, if you December of last year, December last year,

91
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:45.879
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'd be shifting the blame all day long.

92
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:48.040
<v Speaker 1>If I were a Hawkman, Yeah, I'd be saying this

93
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:51.560
<v Speaker 1>is this one didn't happen on my watch. And furthermore,

94
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:55.279
<v Speaker 1>I've put out an edict to all my das. If

95
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:59.519
<v Speaker 1>you've got any of these sexual assault allegations that we

96
00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:03.360
<v Speaker 1>haven't gotten to, you're gonna stay up and work round

97
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:05.639
<v Speaker 1>the clock in overtime, and we'll pay for it to

98
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:08.959
<v Speaker 1>freaking clear the decks here, because not another little boy

99
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:10.920
<v Speaker 1>is gonna die on my watch, or a little girl

100
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:13.639
<v Speaker 1>or adult or whoever. As long as we as long

101
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.000
<v Speaker 1>as the red flag is up and somebody has revealed

102
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:19.319
<v Speaker 1>themselves to be an assaulter a sexual assault of children,

103
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:22.720
<v Speaker 1>we are going to investigate that, no matter what the

104
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:23.759
<v Speaker 1>office hours are.

105
00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:26.079
<v Speaker 3>So there's a weird there, and it seems like this

106
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.240
<v Speaker 3>guy ended up in kind of a gray area, this

107
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:33.439
<v Speaker 3>Mario Garcia Aquino, where there were people who made accusations

108
00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:34.079
<v Speaker 3>against him.

109
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:34.399
<v Speaker 1>Right.

110
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.680
<v Speaker 3>There was the fourteen year old in twenty twenty two.

111
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:38.720
<v Speaker 3>There was the sixteen year old just over a year

112
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:41.439
<v Speaker 3>ago in Palmdale. So these two cases, both of them

113
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:48.519
<v Speaker 3>make allegations against this guy. That doesn't happen randomly, that

114
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:53.399
<v Speaker 3>doesn't happen on a whim. This is not some you know,

115
00:05:55.480 --> 00:06:00.319
<v Speaker 3>social panacea where kids all of a sudden and make

116
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:06.199
<v Speaker 3>up stories about coach Mario. That's the hardest part about it.

117
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:11.120
<v Speaker 3>But because according to Nathan Hawkman, because of some investigative issues,

118
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:13.920
<v Speaker 3>whether it was the kids didn't want to testify, the

119
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:16.639
<v Speaker 3>families didn't want them to testify, they couldn't find other

120
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.399
<v Speaker 3>corroborating evidence, whatever it is, it falls into that gray

121
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:23.199
<v Speaker 3>area where it sounds like everybody has a suspicion about

122
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:25.360
<v Speaker 3>this guy, but it doesn't rise to the level of

123
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:27.639
<v Speaker 3>an actual law enforcement action.

124
00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:30.879
<v Speaker 1>Here's the problem in in LA it shouldn't be a problem.

125
00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:33.639
<v Speaker 1>You're having people who don't speak the language, who are

126
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:36.079
<v Speaker 1>here illegally, that do not want to tell the cops

127
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:39.000
<v Speaker 1>what they know. That's just the way it's always been

128
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:41.720
<v Speaker 1>in Los Angeles for a very long time, and there

129
00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:44.519
<v Speaker 1>should be ways around it. And if you don't have

130
00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:48.519
<v Speaker 1>witnesses the way cooperative witnesses the way you have in

131
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.879
<v Speaker 1>other cases, there's got to be ways to make them cooperate.

132
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>There's got to be ways to work around a there's

133
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:58.879
<v Speaker 1>not a language barrier anymore, but there's got to be

134
00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:01.879
<v Speaker 1>a way to work around a cultural barrier or i'm

135
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:05.759
<v Speaker 1>scared of ice under this administration barrier or whatever it

136
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>is to protect these children, who who who come here

137
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:13.920
<v Speaker 1>for a better life. I mean, it's just it's so

138
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>anthetical to like what this whole family came here for

139
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:23.079
<v Speaker 1>and was I don't know, I just I think that's

140
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:27.120
<v Speaker 1>not an excuse. Hawkman's excuse is not a viable excuse

141
00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:31.519
<v Speaker 1>in my mind. Oh, there was interviews to be no, no, no, no,

142
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Like you get a whiff of a kid being molested

143
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:38.040
<v Speaker 1>by a coach, not even a famili not that there's

144
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>a good child molestation story, but not even a familial relative,

145
00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:45.600
<v Speaker 1>like a familial assault, but somebody who's got.

146
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Access to other children. Kids come on.

147
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:50.480
<v Speaker 3>And that's the thing is, there's there's got to be

148
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:54.160
<v Speaker 3>a question asked of whoever was employing him. Was it

149
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:56.800
<v Speaker 3>people that were, you know, hiring this guy to coach

150
00:07:56.839 --> 00:07:57.839
<v Speaker 3>their kid individually?

151
00:07:57.920 --> 00:07:59.120
<v Speaker 2>Sure it was off the mark.

152
00:07:59.360 --> 00:07:59.920
<v Speaker 4>Was it a team?

153
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:01.079
<v Speaker 2>I bet it wasn't.

154
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:01.519
<v Speaker 4>I bet it.

155
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:04.439
<v Speaker 1>He's a traveling soccer coach. It was also a guy

156
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:08.879
<v Speaker 1>from El Salvador. You know there's commonalities there. Your kid

157
00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:12.360
<v Speaker 1>loves soccer. Here's this guy who knows where you came from.

158
00:08:12.439 --> 00:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you've got some people in common or what have you.

159
00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:17.319
<v Speaker 1>You trust him he's going to teach your kids soccer

160
00:08:17.439 --> 00:08:18.000
<v Speaker 1>that kind of thing.

161
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:20.800
<v Speaker 3>Fifteen years ago, when I was a coach for my

162
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:24.360
<v Speaker 3>kids soccer teams, they went through a full back. That's different,

163
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:27.120
<v Speaker 3>I know, and I'm not saying, and I remember being

164
00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:28.519
<v Speaker 3>so annoyed by it, like.

165
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:29.639
<v Speaker 4>What the what am I going to do?

166
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:32.320
<v Speaker 3>First of all, I have a kid on the team, right,

167
00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:34.279
<v Speaker 3>and I'm not going to take advantage of my pay.

168
00:08:34.279 --> 00:08:36.000
<v Speaker 2>That's just organized sports. This was not.

169
00:08:36.279 --> 00:08:38.480
<v Speaker 3>That's and that's an issue that's going to come up

170
00:08:38.679 --> 00:08:40.240
<v Speaker 3>in situations like this.

171
00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:41.240
<v Speaker 4>I mean, but what do you do.

172
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:44.679
<v Speaker 1>You've moved here with your family family from El Salvador

173
00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:48.200
<v Speaker 1>three years ago, you don't speak the language. You meet

174
00:08:48.279 --> 00:08:51.519
<v Speaker 1>other El Salvadorans in the community, that's who you hang

175
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:54.159
<v Speaker 1>out with. This guy coaches soccer. Your kids got this

176
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:58.039
<v Speaker 1>talent for soccer. Why wouldn't because why wouldn't this be

177
00:08:58.159 --> 00:08:58.919
<v Speaker 1>something that happened.

178
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:00.440
<v Speaker 3>It would be hard for me to believe that there

179
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:04.039
<v Speaker 3>wasn't somebody who's like, yeah, but you don't want there's

180
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:05.200
<v Speaker 3>something about that guy.

181
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:08.799
<v Speaker 4>I mean, word like that spreads pretty quickly.

182
00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:12.639
<v Speaker 3>I'm surprised, Well, I wouldn't be surprised if in this.

183
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Case it took two years. That's not that long of

184
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:19.200
<v Speaker 1>a time. You know, the damage has been done pretty quickly.

185
00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:21.799
<v Speaker 1>But the fact that they got wind of this two

186
00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>years ago and nothing was done is.

187
00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:24.840
<v Speaker 2>A real problem.

188
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:27.879
<v Speaker 4>Hey, California has a legislature. Did you know that? And

189
00:09:27.960 --> 00:09:30.840
<v Speaker 4>some of those lawmakers have ideas that actually make sense.

190
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:31.559
<v Speaker 2>What.

191
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:34.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's weird how they're going to go after AI

192
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:35.799
<v Speaker 3>chat bots.

193
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:36.600
<v Speaker 4>When we come back.

194
00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:41.480
<v Speaker 5>You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

195
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.639
<v Speaker 5>AM six forty.

196
00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:50.159
<v Speaker 3>The quivering Wall Streets numbers continue to quiver as of

197
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:52.919
<v Speaker 3>right now, though I just looked it up during the

198
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:56.679
<v Speaker 3>break there, the Dow is flying. The Dow is up

199
00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:59.799
<v Speaker 3>seventeen hundred points right now, which is about five percent

200
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.879
<v Speaker 3>some p five hundred. NASTAC also seeing quite a spike

201
00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:07.720
<v Speaker 3>over just the last couple of minutes here. One thing

202
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:11.159
<v Speaker 3>that the Treasury's thirty nine billion dollar auction of ten

203
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:16.360
<v Speaker 3>year notes saw some pretty strong, very strong demand. I

204
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:17.879
<v Speaker 3>guess that's probably what it was.

205
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know the Treasury report well that they were auction.

206
00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:26.080
<v Speaker 1>The Treasury auction met with strong demand. Is going to

207
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:29.879
<v Speaker 1>bounce back. The doubt of sixteen hundred ghosts I don't think.

208
00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.159
<v Speaker 1>So there's got to be a phone call that was made.

209
00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Somebody knows something. But again, you don't get that excited

210
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:39.320
<v Speaker 1>over the freaking Treasury.

211
00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:42.440
<v Speaker 3>Auction because this is also coming in. Fox is reporting

212
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:45.000
<v Speaker 3>that Trump is going to say he's raising tariffs on

213
00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:47.759
<v Speaker 3>China up to one hundred and twenty five percent. As

214
00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:50.000
<v Speaker 3>of right now, they were at one hundred and four percent,

215
00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:51.840
<v Speaker 3>so he's going to go even higher.

216
00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, of course he is.

217
00:10:53.039 --> 00:10:56.240
<v Speaker 1>So everyone get out their genitals. Were in for a

218
00:10:56.399 --> 00:10:59.919
<v Speaker 1>urination match, and Trump and China are the main card.

219
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:00.519
<v Speaker 2>What is it?

220
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:03.960
<v Speaker 1>The what card? The best card, the main event, the

221
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:06.519
<v Speaker 1>I'll say main event, yeah, but what what is the card?

222
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:07.080
<v Speaker 2>Terminal?

223
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:09.759
<v Speaker 1>Undercard? So well, you would be there with the main

224
00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:12.559
<v Speaker 1>main event in the undercar. So we're the undercard. If

225
00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:15.559
<v Speaker 1>we were to urinary measure, if we were to measure

226
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:17.639
<v Speaker 1>our urination utensils.

227
00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:22.720
<v Speaker 3>Got it a urination utensil. I was trying to keep

228
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:25.159
<v Speaker 3>it clean, you did, and I appreciate that. But someone's

229
00:11:25.159 --> 00:11:27.039
<v Speaker 3>going to complain that you've mentioned genitals.

230
00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:31.120
<v Speaker 1>You did wait until ten twenty five, so it's not

231
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:34.360
<v Speaker 1>like we talk about genitals a lot in our body.

232
00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:37.879
<v Speaker 1>Now she brings in the cameras I talk about Jena,

233
00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:42.600
<v Speaker 1>the genitals begin to do. There is a bill send

234
00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:46.320
<v Speaker 1>It Bill two forty three in Sacramento that would try

235
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:48.320
<v Speaker 1>to regulate AI chatbots.

236
00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:49.759
<v Speaker 4>Remember that story out of Florida.

237
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:53.120
<v Speaker 3>Kid killed himself after talking with this AI chatbot for

238
00:11:53.120 --> 00:11:53.759
<v Speaker 3>a long time.

239
00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:55.080
<v Speaker 4>Mom sued.

240
00:11:55.320 --> 00:11:59.440
<v Speaker 3>Mom sued the company character Ai, which is based in

241
00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:05.840
<v Speaker 3>Menlo Park here in California, and to address this problem,

242
00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:09.480
<v Speaker 3>state lawmakers in this bill would require operators of any

243
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:13.559
<v Speaker 3>chatboard chat bot platform to remind a user at least

244
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:16.240
<v Speaker 3>every three hours that the virtual characters.

245
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:16.799
<v Speaker 4>Are not human.

246
00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:22.120
<v Speaker 3>They would also have a protocol for addressing suicidal ideation.

247
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.440
<v Speaker 3>It would require chatbots to report the number of times

248
00:12:27.000 --> 00:12:31.600
<v Speaker 3>that their human companion brings up suicide ideation or actions,

249
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:36.000
<v Speaker 3>along with other requirements. It's just one way that they

250
00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:38.960
<v Speaker 3>say they're trying to tackle the potential risks posed by

251
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 3>AI chatbots as they're getting more and more popular.

252
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:44.480
<v Speaker 1>I read an opinion piece over the weekend and I

253
00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:46.600
<v Speaker 1>forgot to bring it to the show, but it was

254
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:52.200
<v Speaker 1>about the proliferation of these romantic chat bots and how

255
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:56.759
<v Speaker 1>popular they really are, especially amongst the young people. And

256
00:12:57.039 --> 00:12:59.440
<v Speaker 1>we've talked about it before Is it just training wheels?

257
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Is that learning how to do something before you're ready

258
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:03.000
<v Speaker 1>to actually do it.

259
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:04.840
<v Speaker 3>Well, there are people we talked about it a couple

260
00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:07.080
<v Speaker 3>of weeks ago. There are people who advocate for that

261
00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:11.200
<v Speaker 3>because it gives especially younger teenagers, the ability to make

262
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:14.600
<v Speaker 3>some of those dating mistakes without hurting anybody's feelings.

263
00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:17.799
<v Speaker 1>Right, And I remember that conversation of people advocating for

264
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:21.639
<v Speaker 1>them to be training wheels, Right, But is that the

265
00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:24.279
<v Speaker 1>purpose that the people who are actually using it are

266
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:27.120
<v Speaker 1>using it for. Are they getting addicted to this because

267
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:30.360
<v Speaker 1>in the opinion piece, the takeaway was kind of like, Yeah,

268
00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:32.000
<v Speaker 1>they're going to tell you things you want to hear.

269
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:33.399
<v Speaker 2>They're going to tell you the compliments.

270
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:35.039
<v Speaker 1>They're going to be there when you want them, They're

271
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:37.279
<v Speaker 1>going to respond when you want them to all of

272
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:41.799
<v Speaker 1>the things. And the problem with these relationships is that

273
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:44.240
<v Speaker 1>there is no give and take. That's the thing about

274
00:13:44.279 --> 00:13:47.679
<v Speaker 1>relationships that's so wonderful. You know, you get sick, your

275
00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:51.360
<v Speaker 1>wife makes you soup, your chatbot is and that's a

276
00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:55.600
<v Speaker 1>major part of relationships, is the give and take and

277
00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:58.799
<v Speaker 1>being there for each other in that regard, and the

278
00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:03.039
<v Speaker 1>chatbot never needs you. The chatbot never needs you. You

279
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:06.480
<v Speaker 1>never give anything that is chat pot. The chatbot could

280
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:08.919
<v Speaker 1>be there to listen to all your problems and things.

281
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:12.000
<v Speaker 1>But if you're not doing something for your chatbot, then

282
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:14.600
<v Speaker 1>you're not getting what you need out of the relationship.

283
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:17.279
<v Speaker 1>Because part of that is the joy your wife gets

284
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.480
<v Speaker 1>giving you that soup when you're sick. That's part of

285
00:14:19.480 --> 00:14:23.159
<v Speaker 1>what builds a relationship of give and take and being

286
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:26.000
<v Speaker 1>there for each other. If it's a one sided thing,

287
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.200
<v Speaker 1>it's not a relationship.

288
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:32.639
<v Speaker 3>That's These things tear. They terrify me. Not because I'm

289
00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:35.799
<v Speaker 3>afraid of an AI chatbot. I'm terrified about down the

290
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:38.759
<v Speaker 3>line what it does to someone's mentality if they don't

291
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:40.080
<v Speaker 3>have that huge action.

292
00:14:40.519 --> 00:14:43.840
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, it's like porn, right, It's we had

293
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:47.360
<v Speaker 1>this conversation about porn ten twenty years ago of like, oh,

294
00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:51.120
<v Speaker 1>kids are watching porn and it's gone so out of

295
00:14:51.159 --> 00:14:53.440
<v Speaker 1>control that they're not going to be able to have

296
00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:54.320
<v Speaker 1>sex normally.

297
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:58.360
<v Speaker 2>Ever did that happen, Maybe it happened. I don't know what.

298
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:00.639
<v Speaker 4>When's last time he had sex with any eighteen year old?

299
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:02.480
<v Speaker 4>It's been a long time.

300
00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:05.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, See, I don't think I ever had sex

301
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:05.960
<v Speaker 1>with an eighteen year old.

302
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:09.399
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if that no, I did.

303
00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:13.519
<v Speaker 1>I did anyway, let's move on, moving on a long time.

304
00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:18.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh gosh, I realized that it was a minefield. I

305
00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:21.720
<v Speaker 3>wasn't trying to jump into and apparently I just both

306
00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:23.639
<v Speaker 3>feet both feet.

307
00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:26.919
<v Speaker 2>All right here, everyone saying, you know, throughout the hallway.

308
00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:30.440
<v Speaker 3>Again, something's going on on Wall Street. The Dow is

309
00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:33.679
<v Speaker 3>up about two thousand points. We'll see what's going on.

310
00:15:34.200 --> 00:15:37.559
<v Speaker 1>Trump authorized a ninety day pause on tariffs, says the

311
00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Breaking News, And that's exactly what that phone call was.

312
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:44.759
<v Speaker 2>Because wow, for him the last night.

313
00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:49.279
<v Speaker 1>To say everyone be cool, don't be a pannikin relax.

314
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:53.200
<v Speaker 1>For him to do this, somebody got to Trump big

315
00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:56.679
<v Speaker 1>time because he is not somebody to waiver. But I mean,

316
00:15:56.720 --> 00:15:59.440
<v Speaker 1>he did do the pause back in what February was it,

317
00:15:59.480 --> 00:16:02.720
<v Speaker 1>when it was Canada and Mexico. So maybe he's just

318
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:05.080
<v Speaker 1>trying to stop the bleeding on Wall Street. The phone

319
00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:07.440
<v Speaker 1>was probably ringing off the hook. Elon Musk in the

320
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:09.919
<v Speaker 1>room as well. So this is I don't know why

321
00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:12.919
<v Speaker 1>this image just popped into my head. If you're torturing

322
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:15.279
<v Speaker 1>somebody and you're trying to get secrets out of them, right.

323
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:16.960
<v Speaker 2>You're having sex with an eighteen year old.

324
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:19.840
<v Speaker 4>No, we're moving past that and pretending it never happened.

325
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:22.240
<v Speaker 3>You have somebody on a meat hook, right, They're chained

326
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:24.600
<v Speaker 3>up and they're hanging out of a meat hook, and

327
00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:27.600
<v Speaker 3>you've got a battery and you're going to shock them

328
00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:30.440
<v Speaker 3>right in their sides, right, and you're trying to torture

329
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:33.120
<v Speaker 3>them to get the information out of them. They say,

330
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:35.399
<v Speaker 3>I'm not giving you up any information, and you say,

331
00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:37.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to shock you and they say, no, I'm

332
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:39.600
<v Speaker 3>not giving you any information. And then pow you hit

333
00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:42.480
<v Speaker 3>him with that first shock and they go, okay, all right.

334
00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:44.159
<v Speaker 4>I'll tell you. I'll tell you whatever you want to know.

335
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:47.240
<v Speaker 4>This is then you turning.

336
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Really freaking dark mind And I almost used a bad word.

337
00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:54.879
<v Speaker 1>That was really dark. That was a really dark scenario

338
00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:57.399
<v Speaker 1>you painted. You know, I'm going to go to the news.

339
00:16:58.080 --> 00:16:59.600
<v Speaker 1>We're going to go to the news.

340
00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:04.759
<v Speaker 5>You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

341
00:17:05.039 --> 00:17:05.920
<v Speaker 5>Am six forty.

342
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:08.839
<v Speaker 2>I've heard enough about it.

343
00:17:09.119 --> 00:17:11.920
<v Speaker 3>Her Caroline love It, White House Press Secretary there and

344
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:18.319
<v Speaker 3>Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant. And again this just before, just

345
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:20.440
<v Speaker 3>before we went to the news. At the bottom of

346
00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:23.000
<v Speaker 3>the hour, we noticed that the Dow had jumped up

347
00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:26.440
<v Speaker 3>a couple thousand points five to six percent, and.

348
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:29.480
<v Speaker 1>We thought somebody got on the phone, something happened, somebody

349
00:17:29.559 --> 00:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>got worried of something, because it wasn't about the Treasury auction.

350
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:34.480
<v Speaker 1>And then we found out that he ordered this ninety

351
00:17:34.519 --> 00:17:39.079
<v Speaker 1>day pause on tariffs except for China. And I believe

352
00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Beset when he says that this was the plan all along,

353
00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:44.359
<v Speaker 1>because in my mind, this was the plan all along.

354
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:47.079
<v Speaker 1>It was never about the other countries. It was about

355
00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:48.519
<v Speaker 1>China from go.

356
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:52.079
<v Speaker 3>And he tried to push against that, but but it's

357
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:54.839
<v Speaker 3>he tried to say that this is not just about China,

358
00:17:54.920 --> 00:17:56.680
<v Speaker 3>it was to expose any bad actors.

359
00:17:56.680 --> 00:17:58.759
<v Speaker 4>But that's clearly what they were trying to do in

360
00:17:58.799 --> 00:17:59.359
<v Speaker 4>the first place.

361
00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:03.240
<v Speaker 1>It was assic for me, being a girl middle school

362
00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:07.599
<v Speaker 1>bully girl technique of you try to get everybody on

363
00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.640
<v Speaker 1>your side. It's you showing your power in front of

364
00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:14.039
<v Speaker 1>everybody else, and then when you zero in on who

365
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:16.960
<v Speaker 1>you want to have as your rival, you get everybody

366
00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:19.599
<v Speaker 1>else on your side. And that's exactly what the United

367
00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:22.599
<v Speaker 1>States did. They saw China as their rival. They went

368
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:25.240
<v Speaker 1>up against everyone in the schoolyard and then decided to

369
00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:29.559
<v Speaker 1>pull all the weaker personalities, all the weaker countries, into

370
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:31.440
<v Speaker 1>their orbit and say, okay, we're all.

371
00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:33.440
<v Speaker 2>We've all everyone's.

372
00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:35.759
<v Speaker 1>Playing nice with me except for you, and now it's

373
00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:37.240
<v Speaker 1>the world against China.

374
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:39.279
<v Speaker 2>That's essentially what they're doing here.

375
00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:42.599
<v Speaker 3>So officially the president. It's not official because it's a

376
00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:45.079
<v Speaker 3>truth social post, but I mean the words that the

377
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:48.759
<v Speaker 3>President used. He plans to keep the administration's global baseline

378
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:51.599
<v Speaker 3>tariff increase of ten percent in place for all countries.

379
00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:55.160
<v Speaker 3>That is still enough, at least according to the Treasury Secretary,

380
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:58.039
<v Speaker 3>That in and of itself is still enough to get

381
00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:00.440
<v Speaker 3>those seventy five countries to come to the table to

382
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:02.839
<v Speaker 3>begin their negotiations to figure out what we're going to

383
00:19:02.920 --> 00:19:05.440
<v Speaker 3>do with all of these individual trade agreement.

384
00:19:05.559 --> 00:19:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Here's the thing, they don't matter.

385
00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:11.440
<v Speaker 1>We talked about this before, those issues with other countries,

386
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:15.240
<v Speaker 1>they don't matter. It is apples and oranges, but it's not.

387
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:20.440
<v Speaker 1>It's like oranges and freaking orange peels. None of our

388
00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:23.359
<v Speaker 1>contracts with those other countries mean crap.

389
00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:26.400
<v Speaker 2>No, I think it's China that matters.

390
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:28.119
<v Speaker 4>China is the big one.

391
00:19:28.440 --> 00:19:32.359
<v Speaker 3>They do matter because if you're talking about like European Union,

392
00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:34.319
<v Speaker 3>if you're talking about Canada, if you're talking about Mexico,

393
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:36.480
<v Speaker 3>if you're talking about Vietnam, if you're talking there are

394
00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:40.559
<v Speaker 3>countries where India there are sizable trade agreements that we

395
00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:43.039
<v Speaker 3>have that are going to have an impact. None of

396
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:45.519
<v Speaker 3>them and even if you add them all together, they

397
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.839
<v Speaker 3>might not They might not reach what we have with China. Right.

398
00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:51.559
<v Speaker 1>But India is a curious one that you bring up

399
00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:54.759
<v Speaker 1>because India tries to kind of play both sides of

400
00:19:54.799 --> 00:19:55.640
<v Speaker 1>the playground here.

401
00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:57.599
<v Speaker 2>India tries to pretend.

402
00:19:57.279 --> 00:20:00.599
<v Speaker 1>That they're our ally, but they're very close, maybe the

403
00:20:00.599 --> 00:20:04.799
<v Speaker 1>closest trade partners with China. So India is not going

404
00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:07.079
<v Speaker 1>to be like, oh, f and you China, I'm going

405
00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:07.680
<v Speaker 1>with America.

406
00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:08.720
<v Speaker 2>That's not going to happen.

407
00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:11.079
<v Speaker 3>No, But I think that they wanted the minor players.

408
00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:13.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean your pointed that these smaller ones don't matter.

409
00:20:14.079 --> 00:20:16.799
<v Speaker 3>They do want those minor players to be able to

410
00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:19.400
<v Speaker 3>be sure, to want.

411
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:22.559
<v Speaker 2>To be able to say great optics are great China.

412
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, But when you get down to the math, we

413
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:30.160
<v Speaker 1>don't bring in stuff from the other countries to the

414
00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:34.880
<v Speaker 1>percent near the percentage of the percent it's an f

415
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:35.440
<v Speaker 1>and joke.

416
00:20:36.359 --> 00:20:37.680
<v Speaker 2>You know when you look at this.

417
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:40.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's go down the list of the seventy five

418
00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:43.720
<v Speaker 1>other countries they're talking about, right, and look at what

419
00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:47.000
<v Speaker 1>our trade is with those countries.

420
00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:51.160
<v Speaker 3>Right, five million dollars with Lithuania or whatever the exactly

421
00:20:51.319 --> 00:20:52.039
<v Speaker 3>sample might be.

422
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:52.799
<v Speaker 4>I know that, you know.

423
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:53.519
<v Speaker 2>I love the.

424
00:20:53.400 --> 00:20:55.799
<v Speaker 1>Optics that the whole world is on our side and

425
00:20:55.880 --> 00:20:57.079
<v Speaker 1>how I want it to be.

426
00:20:57.279 --> 00:21:00.720
<v Speaker 2>I want Trump's plan to work, I really do.

427
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:02.839
<v Speaker 1>I think it would be great to move all of

428
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:04.880
<v Speaker 1>the manufacturing back to this country.

429
00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:07.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it would be great to take all these.

430
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Contracts, rip them up, throw them out, start over to

431
00:21:10.319 --> 00:21:11.960
<v Speaker 1>where we benefit better.

432
00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:12.880
<v Speaker 2>I love it.

433
00:21:13.839 --> 00:21:16.039
<v Speaker 1>I just think that we need to be honest with

434
00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:19.880
<v Speaker 1>what we're dealing with right now, and that's China.

435
00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:20.680
<v Speaker 2>And that's a.

436
00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Very fragile situation you've got there with Shi Jinping and

437
00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:29.279
<v Speaker 1>what he's promised his people. He's promised his people that

438
00:21:29.359 --> 00:21:31.799
<v Speaker 1>think the same things Trump has promised us.

439
00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:37.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and as we mentioned yesterday, neither of these guys

440
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:44.240
<v Speaker 3>backs down. There's no there's no political future in for

441
00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:45.200
<v Speaker 3>either one of them.

442
00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:48.000
<v Speaker 4>If they are appear to have backed down.

443
00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:49.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. I said a bad word.

444
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:51.119
<v Speaker 4>Why are you apologizing to me?

445
00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:52.319
<v Speaker 2>I feel bad.

446
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:54.200
<v Speaker 4>You're the one who's got to go to the FCC,

447
00:21:54.440 --> 00:21:54.720
<v Speaker 4>not me.

448
00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:58.440
<v Speaker 3>President Trump did announce this ninety day pause of the

449
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:01.720
<v Speaker 3>higher tariffs against these trading partners that went into effect

450
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:05.559
<v Speaker 3>earlier today last night overnight, if you want to call

451
00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:05.839
<v Speaker 3>it that.

452
00:22:06.599 --> 00:22:09.319
<v Speaker 4>And again the exception is China.

453
00:22:09.960 --> 00:22:14.079
<v Speaker 3>As of about midnight d C time, the tariff on

454
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:16.519
<v Speaker 3>goods coming in from China was set at one hundred

455
00:22:16.559 --> 00:22:22.240
<v Speaker 3>and four percent. After China then retaliated and increased the

456
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:27.240
<v Speaker 3>tariffs on American goods going to China, President Trump just

457
00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:29.240
<v Speaker 3>a short time ago said it's going to go from

458
00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:31.160
<v Speaker 3>one hundred and four percent up to one hundred and

459
00:22:31.160 --> 00:22:32.160
<v Speaker 3>twenty five percent.

460
00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:34.480
<v Speaker 4>So not only has he.

461
00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:40.279
<v Speaker 3>Been able to in his work in his idea to

462
00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:44.640
<v Speaker 3>isolate China, he's got all of these other countries, dozens

463
00:22:44.680 --> 00:22:46.799
<v Speaker 3>of them. Scott Besson said that there are seventy five

464
00:22:46.880 --> 00:22:49.839
<v Speaker 3>plus that are coming and you know, dropping a dime

465
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:51.680
<v Speaker 3>to call us and let us know that they're ready

466
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:52.400
<v Speaker 3>to negotiate.

467
00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:56.839
<v Speaker 4>That these countries are now aligned with us.

468
00:22:56.920 --> 00:22:59.839
<v Speaker 3>They are now pointed towards us because they know how

469
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:02.440
<v Speaker 3>important our trade is with them.

470
00:23:02.880 --> 00:23:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Don't be surprised if you hear the term market manipulation,

471
00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:14.960
<v Speaker 1>that was that that was maybe one of the goals here.

472
00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:18.839
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe it to be the case because President

473
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Trump is talking about tariffs forever and wanting to do this,

474
00:23:23.119 --> 00:23:25.480
<v Speaker 1>and you've got timing of this. Timing of it is

475
00:23:25.559 --> 00:23:28.000
<v Speaker 1>odd in the middle of the day, the middle of

476
00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:30.319
<v Speaker 1>a day, like why now? And that was one of

477
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:33.440
<v Speaker 1>the questions, why right now? And that's why Bescent said

478
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:37.519
<v Speaker 1>this was the president's plan all along. You have to

479
00:23:37.559 --> 00:23:39.839
<v Speaker 1>follow the money on that one. That's that's a book

480
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:41.559
<v Speaker 1>that comes out in twenty twenty eight.

481
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:44.359
<v Speaker 3>All right, Swamp Watch, of course is coming up. We'll

482
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:46.200
<v Speaker 3>talk a little bit more about this. We're getting some

483
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:48.880
<v Speaker 3>more information about what Scott Besson, the Secretary of the

484
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:51.759
<v Speaker 3>Treasury said the thinking behind all of this with the

485
00:23:51.799 --> 00:23:54.519
<v Speaker 3>President has been saying on social media. But again, a

486
00:23:54.640 --> 00:23:59.039
<v Speaker 3>ninety day pause on the tariffs except for China.

487
00:23:59.200 --> 00:24:00.119
<v Speaker 2>It's on man.
