0:00
Speaker 1: News breaks out in every show Mark simone on seven ten.
0:05
Speaker 2: Wwar.
0:12
Speaker 3: Well, welcome to the second Hour. In case you don't know,
0:16
Speaker 3: we start at nine o'clock every day. It's nine to
0:19
Speaker 3: noon every day, so if you just tune it in,
0:21
Speaker 3: you miss the first hour nine to noon every day.
0:23
Speaker 3: We've got a lot to get to. Let me just
0:25
Speaker 3: clear up stuff. This is something we do on the show.
0:28
Speaker 3: Here we clear up all the fake news you get
0:30
Speaker 3: all day and night from all the networks, fake news
0:34
Speaker 3: around the clock. Here's the fake news that you're gonna
0:38
Speaker 3: hear all day to day. Everywhere you turn, you're gonna
0:40
Speaker 3: hear the national debt has reached a shattering forty trillion dollars.
0:46
Speaker 3: Oh my god, it's reached forty trillion. You know that's up. Now,
0:50
Speaker 3: what was it before it's reached forty trillion? You're gonna
0:54
Speaker 3: hear this all day as if it's the most alarming
0:57
Speaker 3: thing on the world, as if it just shows you
1:00
Speaker 3: how evil awful Trump is. It't reached forty trillion. What
1:04
Speaker 3: was it before? Thirty seven trillion? So it's up three trillion.
1:11
Speaker 3: But if you check going back the last ten years,
1:14
Speaker 3: it's up three trillion every year it went up a
1:18
Speaker 3: little more. This year. Normally goes up about three trillion.
1:20
Speaker 3: This year it went up about three point eight No, no,
1:23
Speaker 3: three point four trillion. It's always up three trillion every year. Now,
1:27
Speaker 3: why is that out of control? Insane government spending. But
1:33
Speaker 3: if you're listening to the news, you're gonna hear this
1:35
Speaker 3: all day. This is totally false. You're gonna hear. But
1:39
Speaker 3: the debt reached forty trillion a large part due to
1:42
Speaker 3: the war in Iran and due to the Trump tax cuts. Now,
1:48
Speaker 3: this is complete fake news, total nonsense. Under the Trump
1:52
Speaker 3: tax cuts, revenue has increased. You get more revenue with
1:57
Speaker 3: those sort of tax cuts. Just simply follow the Laugher
2:00
Speaker 3: curve and you get more revenue out of the revenue
2:03
Speaker 3: increased under the Trump tax cuts. They had no effect
2:06
Speaker 3: on the debt. And that argument that it's said, well,
2:09
Speaker 3: due to the war in Iran, it hit forty trillion.
2:12
Speaker 3: The war in Iran has cost about fifty billions so far,
2:15
Speaker 3: fifty billion. That would be one point four percent of
2:20
Speaker 3: the budget, one point four percent of the increase, actually
2:24
Speaker 3: one point four percent of the three trillion that went up.
2:28
Speaker 3: So it's just a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny fraction. The
2:32
Speaker 3: reason you got this debt, and it happens under Republicans
2:35
Speaker 3: and Democrats. It always goes up three trillion the debt
2:39
Speaker 3: every year. It's because of out of controlled government spending.
2:43
Speaker 3: You could cut the spending in half without changing anything.
2:47
Speaker 3: If you just simply paid the legitimate price for everything,
2:50
Speaker 3: you could cut it in half. Government overpays like crazy
2:53
Speaker 3: for everything, overspends, overpays. Could cut it in half right there,
2:58
Speaker 3: and then if you got of what you don't need,
3:01
Speaker 3: started getting rid of the waste the excess. People Elon
3:06
Speaker 3: Musk started to do it, and they couldn't run the
3:08
Speaker 3: amount of Washington fast enough. They went crazy when he
3:11
Speaker 3: tried to do it. They do not want this exposed.
3:14
Speaker 3: One of the reasons government overpays for everything is it's
3:18
Speaker 3: contracts that are handed out by politicians, senators, congressmen. Republicans
3:23
Speaker 3: do it, Democrats do it. They hand out these contracts
3:27
Speaker 3: whether they're building a road or building a bridge or
3:30
Speaker 3: building a building, and it's a wink and a nod.
3:32
Speaker 3: You can overcharge us by two thousand percent. Now in
3:36
Speaker 3: exchange for that, you'll make massive donations to our campaigns,
3:40
Speaker 3: to our political packs. We've got way too many government employees.
3:45
Speaker 3: But the unions will make massive donations to the political
3:49
Speaker 3: packs and the campaigns of all these politicians. So it's
3:52
Speaker 3: a system that's been in place for a long time.
3:55
Speaker 3: You could try to disrupt it. President Trump brought in
3:58
Speaker 3: Elon Musk. Can you imagine you're going to bring in
3:59
Speaker 3: a guy to look at this, and you're bring in
4:02
Speaker 3: the most successful businessman on the face of the earth
4:06
Speaker 3: and a genius, and you let him go into it,
4:08
Speaker 3: and he's just tearing through it like crazy, And they
4:11
Speaker 3: went insane in Washington. They had to run him out
4:13
Speaker 3: of town as fast as they could. They weren't going
4:16
Speaker 3: to stand for this for one second. Cleaning up the
4:19
Speaker 3: waist and fraud. They will not hear of it. That's
4:24
Speaker 3: an example of fake news. You're hearing it all day.
4:28
Speaker 3: You're just getting total fake news from a lot of places.
4:32
Speaker 3: That aircraft carrier story, it's another. Now I looked into this.
4:36
Speaker 3: That aircraft carrier has been out there for two hundred
4:41
Speaker 3: days and they haven't been able to pull into a
4:44
Speaker 3: port to get fresh food. This is the story you're
4:47
Speaker 3: gonna hear. Well, it turns out every aircraft carrier is
4:52
Speaker 3: out there two hundred days perfectly normal. And you don't
4:55
Speaker 3: pull into a port to get food. Navy applies to
5:00
Speaker 3: the aircraft carrier. A supply ship pulls up to the
5:03
Speaker 3: aircraft carrier every month and unloads all the food. You
5:06
Speaker 3: can't pull into a port when you're traveling around the world.
5:10
Speaker 3: What port? I mean, there are some, but only a
5:13
Speaker 3: handful of ports can handle an aircraft carrier pulling in.
5:19
Speaker 3: You can't pull an aircraft carrier into most ports. And
5:23
Speaker 3: that's not where they get food from. And I mean
5:27
Speaker 3: it's just total fake news. Now there's the Media Research
5:31
Speaker 3: Counts of the MRC. They do these studies about fake
5:35
Speaker 3: news and all this stuff. Just to warn you don't
5:39
Speaker 3: ever use Apple News or Google News. If you have
5:44
Speaker 3: a iPhone, maybe maybe you've got in the habit to
5:47
Speaker 3: use an Apple News you got the app there, or
5:50
Speaker 3: you love Google and you start using Google News. According
5:52
Speaker 3: to the recent study, it is the most slanted distorted.
5:56
Speaker 3: Apple News Google News do not use legitimate sources. They
6:00
Speaker 3: rely heavily on the most left wing, slanted, biased stuff.
6:05
Speaker 3: So you're not getting accurate news if you use those.
6:08
Speaker 3: Stay away from Apple News and Google News. Hey that
6:12
Speaker 3: asof that's that crazy senator from Georgia who's really been
6:16
Speaker 3: going after Trump viciously, really vicious, And then he started
6:20
Speaker 3: going after Natalie Harp. Trump has some chief aids that
6:25
Speaker 3: have been around him for a few years. There's Natalie Harp,
6:27
Speaker 3: There's Chamberlain, there's a whole bunch of there's Margo Martin.
6:34
Speaker 3: But they're very hard working. They're all very good looking,
6:37
Speaker 3: and they're very very hard working. Nobody works harder than
6:40
Speaker 3: Natalie Harp round the clock. She just totally devoted to
6:43
Speaker 3: him and he really trusts her. She handles his social media.
6:47
Speaker 3: She's the one that scours social media printing out things
6:51
Speaker 3: for him to see. So this Asoff went after her,
6:54
Speaker 3: which was really ugly, and then implied that she's having
6:58
Speaker 3: some sort of affair with him, which is not true.
7:00
Speaker 3: It he's just crazy. So Asof got a lot of attention,
7:04
Speaker 3: a lot of publicity, and then he started getting even worse,
7:08
Speaker 3: calling trumpet draft dodger because he had four deferments. USAF
7:13
Speaker 3: forgetting to mention that Biden had five deferments, but Trump
7:17
Speaker 3: had a medical deferment for bone spurs. Us I forgot
7:22
Speaker 3: to mention Biden had like six medical deferments. For things
7:25
Speaker 3: nobody ever heard of. But he really has been going
7:28
Speaker 3: after him with all the publicity, and it's caused some
7:31
Speaker 3: people to talk about him for twenty twenty eight. He
7:34
Speaker 3: might be the candidate, but he really got slapped down
7:37
Speaker 3: this morning. David Axelrod, who's the smartest of all the
7:42
Speaker 3: Democratic strategists, smartest of all the Democratic operatives, smartest of
7:47
Speaker 3: all the Democratic insiders, and he's Obama's top guy. He's
7:53
Speaker 3: the political guy for the Obama so when he speaks,
7:56
Speaker 3: he's also representing the Obamas. But he really let osof
8:00
Speaker 3: have it, and he said, you know, it's great to
8:02
Speaker 3: have a voice exposing the things that are wrong with Trump,
8:07
Speaker 3: but you went too far with the Natalie Harp stuff.
8:09
Speaker 3: It was really ugly, it was awful. It distracts from
8:13
Speaker 3: the message. He's basically telling Osoft to shut up. You
8:16
Speaker 3: do not have the backing of the Obamas or any
8:19
Speaker 3: of the party elders. So we'll see how asoff reacts
8:24
Speaker 3: to that. We'll see what he does about it. Now.
8:27
Speaker 3: The good news, Harry and Megan are leaving the country.
8:30
Speaker 3: Thank god. Nobody wants them around anymore. The two most
8:33
Speaker 3: useless idiots in the world they had a breakup with
8:40
Speaker 3: King Charles. It's his son, you know, it's Prince Harry.
8:44
Speaker 3: It's his son. But it's the Royal family. They can
8:46
Speaker 3: be very cold blooded. They were completely cut off. One
8:50
Speaker 3: reason that he married this idiot Megan. Family wanted nothing
8:53
Speaker 3: to do with him. But the last time they were
8:55
Speaker 3: over there, apparently they met with King Charles. There was
8:58
Speaker 3: a little thaw in the relafeationship. They're not back in
9:01
Speaker 3: the Royal family. They're not actually royals, they're non working royals.
9:07
Speaker 3: Charles will not have them live anywhere in any royal property,
9:12
Speaker 3: so they'll have to find their own place. Prince Harry
9:15
Speaker 3: was stripped of his military titles and royal patronage appointments
9:19
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty one. To make it look like it
9:24
Speaker 3: was his idea, he announced he would step back from
9:26
Speaker 3: official duties. This feud has been going on for years.
9:32
Speaker 3: Harry wrote a tell all book called Spare. Royal Family
9:36
Speaker 3: didn't like that. He did Oprah. Royal family doesn't like that.
9:40
Speaker 3: He accused Buckingham Pallace of putting him in danger by
9:43
Speaker 3: refusing to provide security for him. I mean, at first,
9:49
Speaker 3: I don't know why he needs any security who the
9:50
Speaker 3: hell's going to bother him. Second of all, get a job,
9:53
Speaker 3: do something for a living. He's I need to realize
9:56
Speaker 3: you're from the Royal family and that is the biggest
9:58
Speaker 3: welfare family in the world. None of them have ever
10:01
Speaker 3: actually held any sort of it is anybody in the
10:03
Speaker 3: Royal family ever worked? Let me think No, I don't
10:07
Speaker 3: think so.
10:09
Speaker 4: No.
10:09
Speaker 3: I can't take of anybody. You could say Sarah Ferguson
10:14
Speaker 3: when she came here, Remember she was pretty hot for
10:16
Speaker 3: a year or two and she did a lot of
10:18
Speaker 3: commercials TV actually made some money, a lot of money there.
10:22
Speaker 3: But I don't know if I'd considered that a career.
10:23
Speaker 3: It was quick. It was a couple of years, and
10:25
Speaker 3: then she was gone. Will they have any contact with
10:29
Speaker 3: King Charles when they go back. Nobody knows. It's not
10:32
Speaker 3: even clear where they'll live now. They're getting out of
10:36
Speaker 3: here because everybody hates them here and there's no possibility
10:39
Speaker 3: of doing anything here. They tried a podcast. That's with
10:43
Speaker 3: every desperate loser when they got nothing left, they try
10:46
Speaker 3: a podcast, and if you're an amateur, stop podcasting, all
10:50
Speaker 3: you amateurs. Stop. It was a disaster. So there's nothing
10:54
Speaker 3: for them here. They'll go back to England, figuring that
10:57
Speaker 3: when they first get there they'll get a lot of
10:58
Speaker 3: attention and maybe that would result in some kind of
11:01
Speaker 3: job or something. But I doubt it. I think they'll
11:03
Speaker 3: be back here pretty soon. Hey, you remember that that
11:08
Speaker 3: ship that crashed into the statue or a Liberty charter boat?
11:12
Speaker 3: You know, people remember the charter helicopter. This nice family
11:15
Speaker 3: from out of town comes. They decided to charter a helicopter.
11:18
Speaker 3: It'll take a tour around Manhattan. And the helicopter pilots
11:23
Speaker 3: not qualified that and maintenance wasn't done. Everything was wrong.
11:25
Speaker 3: A helicopter crash killed them. It was awful. So the thing,
11:29
Speaker 3: something happens with this charter boat. They charged this other family.
11:33
Speaker 3: They charter a boat that'll take them around, and turns
11:38
Speaker 3: out the captain wasn't licensed, nobody was qualified. There was
11:41
Speaker 3: all sorts of things wrong with the boat, crashed into
11:43
Speaker 3: Liberty Island, killed their daughter, killed the mother. It was
11:47
Speaker 3: just awful. Well, now it turns out this captain who
11:50
Speaker 3: didn't have a license and everything also was an illegal
11:53
Speaker 3: immigrant from Al Salvador, an actual criminal illegal alien. Homeland
11:59
Speaker 3: Secure Mark Wayne Mullen putting out a statement. This criminal,
12:03
Speaker 3: illegal alien was illegally and recklessly conducting unlicensed boat tours
12:09
Speaker 3: in New York Harbor. Ice now has him in custody.
12:12
Speaker 3: They will be deporting him. They could try him here
12:15
Speaker 3: and convict him of all kinds of things. At least
12:18
Speaker 3: they got him off the street. He does face justice
12:21
Speaker 3: for his crimes, and then I guess they'll convict him
12:25
Speaker 3: and then Mullen says they will swiftly remove him and
12:29
Speaker 3: send him back to Al Salvador. Hey, the White House
12:33
Speaker 3: Press Secretary of Caroline Levitt is stepping down. As we know,
12:37
Speaker 3: it'll happen pretty soon. He's got a few weeks left.
12:40
Speaker 3: Alina Habba was the front runner to be the replacement.
12:44
Speaker 3: Looked like she was going to be it. She's taken
12:47
Speaker 3: herself out of the running. She said, she is not
12:51
Speaker 3: in the running. She doesn't want the job now. I
12:53
Speaker 3: don't know why. It could be. She's a prosecutor, always
12:56
Speaker 3: been a prosecutor, and she's working in the Department of Justice,
13:00
Speaker 3: and maybe that's what she really wants to do, continue
13:02
Speaker 3: to be a prosecutor. Look at Janeine Piro, prosecutor all
13:06
Speaker 3: her life. Then she goes into TV ends up being
13:10
Speaker 3: on the Five. It's the number one show in cable news,
13:13
Speaker 3: the single most watch show in cable news. Making a
13:16
Speaker 3: fortune she's on the five. Gives it all up because
13:19
Speaker 3: she wants to go be a prosecutor against us. For
13:21
Speaker 3: some of these people, it's just in their blood. They
13:24
Speaker 3: this is what they want to do. They don't want
13:26
Speaker 3: to be a TV star, they don't want to do
13:28
Speaker 3: so that could be the case with Alina. Hobbit just
13:30
Speaker 3: wants to continue with the work. She loves being a prosecutor.
13:33
Speaker 3: The other thing is it's not the glamorous job you
13:36
Speaker 3: think it is. Oh, you get up there for a
13:38
Speaker 3: half hour a day and you're on all the TV
13:41
Speaker 3: stations and you're the press secretary and you get all
13:43
Speaker 3: kinds of attention, But the part you don't see. You
13:47
Speaker 3: got to get there at seven am. You don't leave
13:49
Speaker 3: till eight o'clock at night. You're working like thirteen hours
13:52
Speaker 3: a day, and then when you're home they call you
13:55
Speaker 3: every hour anything happens that you have to inform the
13:58
Speaker 3: Press secretary. So if a ran sends a missile somewhere,
14:02
Speaker 3: you get woken up at three in the morning at
14:03
Speaker 3: Scent com telling you what happened. If there's a crash somewhere,
14:08
Speaker 3: you get woken up at five in the morning because
14:10
Speaker 3: the FAA will tell you what happened. It happens all weekend.
14:15
Speaker 3: You get phone calls day and night, waking up, So
14:17
Speaker 3: a lot of people that's one of the reasons Caroline
14:19
Speaker 3: Levitt is leaving. Just had another baby. She doesn't want
14:23
Speaker 3: to be at work thirteen fourteen hours a day and
14:26
Speaker 3: getting woken up all day and night with phone calls.
14:28
Speaker 3: She just doesn't want it anymore. So who's going to
14:30
Speaker 3: replace her?
14:31
Speaker 4: Then?
14:33
Speaker 3: Anna Kelly is in the lead. Next, she's a deputy
14:36
Speaker 3: press secretary. She's high on the list. Matt Boyle, he's
14:41
Speaker 3: a guy from Breitbart, very high on the list. A
14:44
Speaker 3: lot of people are talking about Scott Jennings, and Scott
14:47
Speaker 3: Jennings seems to be playing that up a little. But
14:51
Speaker 3: Scott Jennings started a radio show, a podcast, a TV show,
14:57
Speaker 3: He's got all kinds of things in addition to his
14:59
Speaker 3: work on End. So he's built quite a career and
15:02
Speaker 3: he's making millions, millions and millions. I don't think, I
15:06
Speaker 3: don't I really can't see him giving that up. But
15:08
Speaker 3: you never know. You never know. He's worked in government before.
15:11
Speaker 3: He worked for George share w. Bush. You never know.
15:14
Speaker 3: But he giving up a hell a lot of money
15:16
Speaker 3: to go do that. But there's other people on the list,
15:19
Speaker 3: but we'll see. Hey, we'll text some calls next. Eight
15:22
Speaker 3: hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number.

15:50
Speaker 4: Regarding the Police Athletic League, we know that this very
15:54
Speaker 4: vital organization works closely the police with students. I'm wondering
16:00

16:05
Speaker 4: of these students to get into law enforcement. Oh?
16:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, Actually I'm on the board of the police Many many,
16:11
Speaker 3: many kids come out of there, and you know, they
16:15
Speaker 3: work and get to know the police, and many of
16:17
Speaker 3: them have joined the police department. Many of them. In fact,
16:21
Speaker 3: you got a lot of famous people that were PAL
16:23
Speaker 3: kids that the PAL took care of them when they
16:25
Speaker 3: were kids. You had a lot of chairman's of big companies.

16:32

Speaker 3: I got a breath, like somebody's chasing you. Calm down,
17:46
Speaker 3: slow down. Oh no, no no.
17:48
Speaker 2: But what really hurt was when when he ended up
17:51
Speaker 2: magazine advertising. I think Joe Campbell has something to do
17:54
Speaker 2: with that, because they brought every inside back cover every magazine.
17:57
Speaker 3: That was okay, so say it again. Nineteen seventy one
18:01
Speaker 3: is when they stop cigarette ads.
18:03
Speaker 2: TV ads, and then later as a result Joe Kim
18:06
Speaker 2: Will being so popular, they added magazine advertising.
18:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, that's interesting. Thanks. Yeah, all of a sudden
18:14
Speaker 3: you decided that would ban cigarette advertising. It was a huge,
18:17
Speaker 3: huge blow to TV and radio, to broadcast that was
18:22
Speaker 3: like the number one advertiser. And if you watch mad Men,
18:24
Speaker 3: there's a bunch of episodes about this where it was
18:27
Speaker 3: a huge blow the ad agencies because without the TV
18:30
Speaker 3: and radio buys, they couldn't make as much money off
18:32
Speaker 3: these accounts. In nineteen seventy one, that's interesting, and then
18:35
Speaker 3: later magazine ads banned them. Yeah, you're not allowed to
18:39
Speaker 3: cigarette you can't advertise those on the radio. Liquor hard
18:42
Speaker 3: liquor can't advertise it on the radio, and I don't
18:45
Speaker 3: know why you should be able to. Let's go to
18:49
Speaker 3: Mario in New Jersey. Mario, how you doing.
18:53
Speaker 4: Oh, good morning, Mark, thanks to taking my call. Regarding
18:57
Speaker 4: those those folks that refer to Trump as bone spurs. Yeah,
19:03
Speaker 4: I grew up in the late sixties, early seventies, and
19:06
Speaker 4: I was a draft age. What a lot of people
19:09
Speaker 4: don't know back then is if you went to college,
19:12
Speaker 4: you will automatically differ from the draft.
19:15
Speaker 3: Yeah.
19:15
Speaker 4: And I never heard anybody saying that those college guys
19:19
Speaker 4: were what draft are.
19:20
Speaker 3: Just so, No, Trump was not a draft dodgery. Legitimately
19:23
Speaker 3: got out of the draft. Now he had a powerful father,
19:25
Speaker 3: could have pulled a few strings. Maybe he didn't really
19:28
Speaker 3: have those bone spurs. I mean that happens. But he
19:30
Speaker 3: had all the student deferments, and again it was it
19:33
Speaker 3: was normal. Joe Biden, for instance, I got five student deferments.
19:37
Speaker 3: And then then he I forget what he claimed he
19:41
Speaker 3: had like two medical deferments for asthma, for things nobody
19:44
Speaker 3: ever saw any other time. And if you if you
19:47
Speaker 3: read his autobiography, there's no mention of any of this.
19:49
Speaker 3: It's like that stutter he claimed he had. Nobody guy's
19:52
Speaker 3: been speaking in public for fifty years. Nobody ever heard
19:55
Speaker 3: him stutter once. A lot of these guys, Dick Cheney
19:58
Speaker 3: had all those student deferments, and it was I mean,
20:02
Speaker 3: it was. It happened all the time back then. Let's
20:04
Speaker 3: go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing.
20:07
Speaker 1: Good morning? Mark Mark? The lowest grade boat license that
20:13
Speaker 1: you could get that you're allowed to take four high
20:16
Speaker 1: clients out a coast guard license. That's called a six pack,
20:21
Speaker 1: right Rich. That means you could take up to six
20:24
Speaker 1: people on your boat. The boat that that this illegal
20:28
Speaker 1: Allien had this twenty two foot one boat, I wouldn't
20:32
Speaker 1: put including the pilot. I wouldn't put more than four
20:37
Speaker 1: people on it. I used to go out with a guy,
20:40
Speaker 1: a businessman, an executive, who lived in Jersey City, and
20:44
Speaker 1: we would go out and go fishing right out, and he.
20:49
Speaker 3: Had no Vincent, be honest, were you taking things out
20:53
Speaker 3: of the water or putting things into in the water?
20:56
Speaker 3: In the water, That's what I all?
20:57
Speaker 1: Right?
20:57
Speaker 3: And uh, what was Tony Soprano's both.
21:03
Speaker 1: I don't remember, But anyway, compared to this guy's twenty
21:07
Speaker 1: two foot boat. This friend of mine had a twenty
21:11
Speaker 1: eight foot boat. I'm not going to mention the name
21:14
Speaker 1: of very popular brand to dual two hundred and fifty
21:19
Speaker 1: horsepower engines. And the width of the boat means a
21:23
Speaker 1: lot to beam. The beam of his boat the width
21:26
Speaker 1: was eleven foot wife the white of the boat, the
21:29
Speaker 1: more stable it is. And he when he wasn't taking
21:33
Speaker 1: people out fishing, he would toodle around Manhattan. He would
21:37
Speaker 1: take Japanese tourists because they would pay through the nose
21:42
Speaker 1: to go to get a bird's eye view of Manhattan.
21:45
Speaker 1: But he went to actually a school to get that license.
21:50
Speaker 1: I remember at the time, thirty years ago, he paid
21:53
Speaker 1: about one thousand dollars just to go to school and
21:56
Speaker 1: attend classes. And you have to take an official closet debt.
22:00
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that makes sense.
22:01
Speaker 5: And so compared to this guy who should be charged
22:06
Speaker 5: with second degree murder, illegal operating of a vessel, and
22:11
Speaker 5: he should be button jailed here and then when he
22:14
Speaker 5: rots and he's old, then sending them back the way
22:16
Speaker 5: he came from the collect welfare.
22:18
Speaker 3: Well, he is getting convicted of all that stuff, and
22:21
Speaker 3: I think they'll probably I don't know. They'll probably deport
22:22
Speaker 3: him and just get him the hell out of here.
22:24
Speaker 3: But Vincent great call is always Hey when we come back,
22:27
Speaker 3: the great economist Steve Moore, Now all this stuff. You

22:52
Speaker 3: forty billion dollars debt, trillion dollar debt. Steve Moore is

Speaker 3: dot com. Steve Moore, how you doing.
23:17
Speaker 4: Big, Good morning, Mark doing very well on the left
23:22
Speaker 4: coast today in sunny California. So doing just fines.
23:26
Speaker 3: Hey all day, we're going to hear the biggest story
23:28
Speaker 3: all day. Dad has reached forty trillion dollars and I
23:32
Speaker 3: heard the network anchor say, and it's due to the
23:36
Speaker 3: Trump tax cuts in the cost of the Iran wary.
23:41
Speaker 4: So a couple things on this. Obviously, everyone knows we
23:45
Speaker 4: spend way too much money in Washington. It's a self
23:49
Speaker 4: evident truth. And so we have to start slashing some spending.
23:54
Speaker 4: And Elon Musk tried to do that with Dose and
23:56
Speaker 4: they cut some spending, but they only really skim the
23:59
Speaker 4: cream off of the incredible waste in our budget. So, yeah,
24:04
Speaker 4: this is gonna be a wake up call that it's time
24:06
Speaker 4: to slash our budget. We could probably get the better
24:09
Speaker 4: government for about half the cost if we just got
24:11
Speaker 4: rid of the wasist in duplication and fraud.
24:14
Speaker 2: And then.
24:16
Speaker 4: You look at the revenues and the tax revenues, the
24:19
Speaker 4: tax revenues that are coming in are higher than they've
24:21
Speaker 4: ever been.
24:22
Speaker 2: Did you know that mouth Yeah.
24:24
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we know it's not like, oh, we need
24:26
Speaker 4: more revenue. We have plenty of revenue. You know. It's like,
24:29
Speaker 4: you know, Reagan used to say, you know, you never
24:31
Speaker 4: give an alcoholic another drink, And that's what you do
24:34
Speaker 4: if you raised access. If you're given an alcoholic another
24:37
Speaker 4: drink now, is forty trillion dollars bad news? Yeah, it's
24:40
Speaker 4: bad news. You know, it's you know, we want a
24:42
Speaker 4: lower debt. But let's put this in perspective. The debt
24:45
Speaker 4: today is forty troy and by the way, when you
24:47
Speaker 4: take out about seven trillion of that is just money
24:50
Speaker 4: the government owns to itself, So it's really the publicly
24:53
Speaker 4: traded dead is about thirty three try and that's a
24:55
Speaker 4: gigantic number. Now, if you look at the debt as
24:57
Speaker 4: a share of our assets, you know that relative to
25:01
Speaker 4: our wealth. You know, the wealth of the country is
25:03
Speaker 4: one hundred and eighty trillion, so you know, our debt
25:06
Speaker 4: to uh to you know, to our assets is about
25:09
Speaker 4: less than twenty five percent. That's way way below what
25:12
Speaker 4: it was even at the end of World War two.
25:14
Speaker 4: So we're not going well, we're not going bankrupt, folks,
25:17
Speaker 4: we're not. But we just have to. We can't we
25:19
Speaker 4: just put the government on a diet. Nope, I guess not. No,
25:22
Speaker 4: we can't do that. We've got to spend, spend, spend.
25:24
Speaker 3: Well, if you look at the debt year by year,
25:26
Speaker 3: it seems to go up about two or three trillion
25:28
Speaker 3: every year and that's what it did here. It's the
25:29
Speaker 3: same increase we.
25:30
Speaker 4: Always get, so well, it's it's growing faster. And by
25:34
Speaker 4: the way, this is the spending problem. You know. I
25:37
Speaker 4: have to admit I'm a Republican, I admit it. But
25:39
Speaker 4: the Republicans are just as goipy as the Democrats on
25:41
Speaker 4: this stuff. I mean, they all want to spend, spend,
25:43
Speaker 4: you know. They now the reverends, oh, we need another
25:45
Speaker 4: five hundred billion for the military. Okay, if you do.
25:47
Speaker 4: I don't know if you do or don't. I don't
25:49
Speaker 4: think they depend of God needs more money. But if
25:51
Speaker 4: they do, then take it out of other programs. You
25:53
Speaker 4: know that Like when you do your family budget, if
25:56
Speaker 4: you need to spend more on item X, you spend
25:59
Speaker 4: money less and something else. That's not the way the
26:01
Speaker 4: government does it. It just says, oh, we'll just we'll
26:04
Speaker 4: just borrow it.
26:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, let me ask you something else. I see
26:09
Speaker 3: that doctor Fauci's partner, his chief advisor there, who's a
26:14
Speaker 3: guy he was texting, emailing back and forth, David what's
26:17
Speaker 3: his name, has been convicted. This guy is going to
26:20
Speaker 3: prison for covering up the source of the of the virus.
26:24
Speaker 3: So what does that mean for Fauci.
26:28
Speaker 4: Well, that's a good question. Now Fauci has been partner
26:33
Speaker 4: right by Tiden, so he's not going to jail. I
26:38
Speaker 4: think that. You know, look, I've been thinking a lot
26:41
Speaker 4: about this because we just had the sort of anniversary
26:44
Speaker 4: of of of of COVID and and uh, you know,
26:48
Speaker 4: we've had so much information coming out. What surprises me
26:51
Speaker 4: the most about this whole episode is that liberals still
26:55
Speaker 4: defend Fauci. If you notice that, they're not saying, oh,
26:58
Speaker 4: you know, this guy's a fiend, we were wrong about him.
27:01
Speaker 4: You know, look, we've all had, you know, been surprised
27:05
Speaker 4: by people. You know, he thought this person was, you know,
27:07
Speaker 4: not what he is. But but look, this was a
27:10
Speaker 4: fiend and a rascal and everything he said, virtually everything
27:14
Speaker 4: that came out of his mouth was a lie. And
27:16
Speaker 4: yet the left won't admit it. They won't admit, boy,
27:19
Speaker 4: we need a big mistake of putting this guy in
27:21
Speaker 4: charge of you know, the country's economy.
27:23
Speaker 3: Steve Moore, I love how you think the left is
27:26
Speaker 3: ever going to say we were wrong.
27:28
Speaker 4: We admit this, and I know they just won't. They won't,
27:31
Speaker 4: they will not. But look, I admit what I've been wrong,
27:34
Speaker 4: believing or not. I've been wrong in my life, you know,
27:36
Speaker 4: and I admit. You know, when Bill Clinton became president,
27:39
Speaker 4: I said, oh my god, the economy is going to
27:41
Speaker 4: go into the toilet. And naturally we had a strong
27:43
Speaker 4: economy because Clinton surprised me. He was a pretty fiscally
27:46
Speaker 4: conservative president. So I admit when I'm wrong, But they
27:49
Speaker 4: never do. Have You notice that they will not disassociate
27:52
Speaker 4: for Fauci, who ruined our economy. One of the reasons
27:55
Speaker 4: we have this massive debt is because we spent so
27:58
Speaker 4: much money during Covidnet. You want to bring the debt down, folks,
28:01
Speaker 4: why don't we I got an idea, Mark, I know
28:03
Speaker 4: this is a wowd crazy idea. Why don't we just
28:05
Speaker 4: go back to spending what we were spending before COVID.
28:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good idea. Hey, speaking of Clinton, Bill Clinton,
28:11
Speaker 3: they love to yell and scream about he's balanced the budget.
28:14
Speaker 3: He finally balanced the budget. What did that actually mean
28:16
Speaker 3: for us? And nothing really changed after that? Did it?
28:20
Speaker 4: Well? I mean, look, when we had the when we did,
28:22
Speaker 4: we did have what three years of balance budgets. Now
28:25
Speaker 4: that was allowed to start because he had Nuke and
28:27
Speaker 4: Rich and the Republicans of Congress. But look, Bill Clinton
28:30
Speaker 4: was a fiscal remand how about this when people forget
28:32
Speaker 4: it wasn't that long ago Bill Clinton gave the State
28:34
Speaker 4: of the Union. Remember what he said the europe Big
28:37
Speaker 4: government is over? Or was he wrong about that? By
28:40
Speaker 4: the way, can you imagine any Democrat today? Can you
28:42
Speaker 4: imagine if we had a president aoc starting her starting
28:45
Speaker 4: her dress to the nation here, big government is over? Well,
28:49
Speaker 4: worries me is about We're just at the beginning stages
28:52
Speaker 4: of the era of big government.
28:53
Speaker 3: Wow. Hey, Steve Moore and he puts out this daily
28:57
Speaker 3: briefing called the Hotline. You got to subscribe to some stories.
29:00
Speaker 3: You're in California. Is this true? You had this in
29:03
Speaker 3: the hotline yesterday about the tires? Yeah, this is not true,
29:08
Speaker 3: is it?
29:11
Speaker 4: I mean I thought it wasn't true. My friend John Fund,
29:13
Speaker 4: who's who worked for us and you know, great guy
29:16
Speaker 4: from Walstert Journi and John he submitted the story. I'm like, John,
29:19
Speaker 4: this can't be true. They can't be that stupid in California.
29:21
Speaker 4: But they're now regulated. They're gonna have the government basically
29:24
Speaker 4: make the tires and by the way the tires on
29:27
Speaker 4: cars today are safer than they've ever been before. But
29:29
Speaker 4: of course California has to regulate everything. And the problem
29:32
Speaker 4: is why should people in New York care about what
29:34
Speaker 4: California does. But because California is the biggest state, you know,
29:37
Speaker 4: in terms of GDP that people have to you know,
29:41
Speaker 4: all the companies have to comply with the California standards.
29:44
Speaker 4: So they become like a death facto. So California is
29:47
Speaker 4: going to be regulating your tires there in New York
29:49
Speaker 4: and make them much more expensive.
29:51
Speaker 3: And so but the regular normal tires, like everybody wants
29:54
Speaker 3: Michelan or some really good tire, they're going to make
29:57
Speaker 3: those illegal.
30:00
Speaker 4: Lord knows what they've got planned. I mean, you know,
30:02
Speaker 4: I they just but the thing is back to remember
30:05
Speaker 4: in like the fifties, forties and fifties, you back in
30:08
Speaker 4: the olden days when cars, you know, people, if you've
30:10
Speaker 4: got to flat tire or car will go flying off
30:12
Speaker 4: the ditch. You could die. I mean, today you can
30:14
Speaker 4: practically drive twenty miles on a flat tire.
30:16
Speaker 3: I mean it.
30:17
Speaker 4: Tires are so much better. You don't see blowouts like
30:19
Speaker 4: you used to. So I don't know what problem they're
30:21
Speaker 4: trying to solve here in California. But this is but
30:25
Speaker 4: here's the thing. Nobody's going to be able to drive
30:27
Speaker 4: a car in California because of these new expensive tire regulations.
30:30
Speaker 4: But you know what, that's okay, because they're going to
30:32
Speaker 4: get on the high speed rail. Oh yeah, they didn't.
30:35
Speaker 4: They spent thirty billion dollars, but they never built that.
30:38
Speaker 3: So you go buy a card. They're going to take
30:39
Speaker 3: the Michelin tires off and put mom down the tires.
30:44
Speaker 4: I can't explain that the five explanation of what they
30:48
Speaker 4: have planned, but they want to. You know, we used
30:50
Speaker 4: to say, we used to laugh, and they say with
30:52
Speaker 4: the left, you know, if it moves regulated, Well guess
30:55
Speaker 4: what if it moves regulated?
30:59
Speaker 3: Had another great story, and this ties in because the
31:02
Speaker 3: Blue States, the Blue States, how many people are fleeing
31:05
Speaker 3: leaving these Blue states.
31:07
Speaker 4: Well this is an amazing story. So you know, as
31:09
Speaker 4: I said, right, I'm in beautiful I mean California. There's
31:12
Speaker 4: no more idyllic place on the planet than beautiful California.
31:15
Speaker 4: I mean, it's seventy five degrees, the sun is out,
31:17
Speaker 4: there's no humidity. You got the oceans, the mountains. I mean,
31:20
Speaker 4: this is a little slice of heaven, and yet people
31:22
Speaker 4: are leaving. People are leaving because the taxes are high
31:26
Speaker 4: and the regulations are so onerous that for the first
31:28
Speaker 4: time in American history, millions of people are leaving California
31:32
Speaker 4: rather than coming into California. California last year lost population
31:37
Speaker 4: to every state but two. By the way, New York
31:40
Speaker 4: lost population every state but three.
31:43
Speaker 3: Wow.
31:44
Speaker 2: And by the way, what in New York and California
31:47
Speaker 2: have in common?
31:48
Speaker 3: Uh?
31:49
Speaker 4: Crazy socialists, highest taxes in the country.
31:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they're fleeing to not other blue states, obviously,
31:57
Speaker 3: they're fleeing the red states.
31:58
Speaker 1: No.
31:59
Speaker 4: Well, this is what's funny about the story. It guess
32:01
Speaker 4: where they're going. They're going. Remember the old show, I
32:03
Speaker 4: mean I think you're old. Remember the old TV show
32:05
Speaker 4: about the clamp It's the Hill.
32:09
Speaker 3: Yeah.
32:09
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well they got their JEALOPPI they made They struck
32:12
Speaker 4: oil and Oklahoma. So they go to Beverly Hills. Well
32:14
Speaker 4: guess what now, people, Beverly Hills are going to Oklahoma.
32:20
Speaker 3: It's the opposite. So it's like Green Acres. The city
32:23
Speaker 3: selector moves to the country, so exactly. Well, Steve Moore,
32:28
Speaker 3: great work.
32:29
Speaker 4: Everybody, by the way, I had I had forgotten about that. Yeah,
32:32
Speaker 4: Green Acres was sort of the opposite.
32:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that was the guy that created Beverly Hillbilly
32:38
Speaker 3: Paul Henning. They came to him and said, you got
32:40
Speaker 3: anything else. He goes, let's just reverse it. Let's just
32:43
Speaker 3: do the opposite.
32:44
Speaker 4: And that was Eddie. What was the guy's name, Eddie?
32:50
Speaker 2: And what ja?
32:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, what a good memory. Yeah, and Eddiel every two seconds.
32:57
Speaker 4: I used to remember all those shows from the sixties.
33:00
Speaker 4: You know, they don't make TV shows like.
33:01
Speaker 3: That anymore, Mark, No, but they're still on and reruns.
33:04
