  Speaker 1: Summer vacation season fully underway. We're in July already, and yes,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: a live stream is on the road today from beautiful
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: and I mean absolutely beautiful Lakes Region in New Hampshire.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Live free or die baby. I'm in Lake Winnipesaki, Beautiful
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Lake Views. I'll try to get you tomorrow, but for
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: right now, this nice little conference room will work. But anyway,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: the Wicked Radio live stream is on the way, and
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: thanks for being here. And if you're an audio podcast listener,
• 0:31

• 0:35
  Speaker 1: audio podcast. Just look for Wicked Wisdom with Bill Adams,

  Speaker 1: where the live stream is every day, and some extra
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: stuff too. And if you're just watching this on the
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: replay a little bit later on on X or on

  Speaker 1: the social media channels, make sure you put a follow
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: on there, notifications on too so you know when we're
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: going live, and other stuff too. Well. First of all,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: little vacation travel update. It's as busy as you can imagine.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: I was in a couple of different airports yesterday getting
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: up here, Florida and New England and Logan. We actually
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: flew into and it's as busy as we expected for
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: this week. It's a busy travel vacation week. And like
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: we said, I kind of talked about this yesterday. Gas
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: price is on average, maybe different here in there, depending
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: on what market you're talking about. Gas price is on
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: average lowest since twenty twenty one, so a lot of
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: people are driving as well. We're back, baby, but it's
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: going to be packed. Not a lot of people in
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: the office today. Don't expect a lot of productivity, but
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: that's all right. We had a lot to talk about today.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: First of all, amazing story of the hero Disney cruise
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: ship Dad who jumped overboard. I'm sure you heard about
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: this by now, But of course people are bitching about it.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Of course they are also. Elon's pissed, but so is
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Trump and Elon's threatening action over the Big Beautiful Bill
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: because it's just raising the debt. Really, it is about
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: the ev mandate. He's mad and I even think embarrassed
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: about that. But now Trump struck back at him this morning,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: back and forth. It's the same thing that happened a
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: few weeks ago. They both want the best thing for
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: the country, I'm sure, and their individual companies. That's okay too.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: They're never going to be best of friends. I think
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: it's okay though. I think it's okay because they have
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: a common goal in mind. We'll talk about that as well.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: And little update, speaking of Trump, he is scheduled to
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: arrive in Florida today. Maybe if we're watching to listening
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: to this later on, he's already done it. He'll be
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: for the grand opening, open for business in the middle
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: of one hundred and ten square miles of creeping death
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Aligator Alcatraz is open back home in Florida. It's this unbelievable,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: and the reaction to this has been incredible, as you
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: can well imagine. Of course, the meltdown, the liberal meltdown
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: on TikTok is just as juicy as you would imagine.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: But anyway, we'll get to all that stuff. All right,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: let's talk about this story. Here's the background. You probably
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: heard about the Disney cruise ship. Dad already I heard
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: about it. And we were sitting on the tarmac leaving
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: PBI yesterday from West Balm Beach, sitting next to my
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: daughter getting the Wi Fi going. No, you're getting ready
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: for the flight, you know, getting ready whatever it is.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting next to my older daughter is twenty three,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: and she goes out of nowhere because I hadn't heard
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: about the story yet. I guess it just broke yesterday
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: when we were busy traveling. She goes, dead, Yeah, if
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: I fell overboard on a cruise, would you jump in
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: to save me? Maybe in a wise ass of course?
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I said, ah, kind of depends what deck we're on.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Just my parenting style. Don't get mad, I said, no,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: of course, honey, I would. Why What the hell? Why
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: are you talking about this? And why you seem kind
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: of upset about this? Why? And then she went on
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: to tell me the story that happened on Sunday. This
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: dad heroically jumps off apparently the fourth deck I believe,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: of a Disney cruise ship because his daughter had fallen overboard.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Toget her. I'll get more details at and that in
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: a second. Here's why. Here's my daughter was kind of
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: twisted off about it. And it's kind of funny to
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: see your kids go through this when they start to
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: read people's reactions, when they start to like become fully
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: aware of how ridiculous people can be. She goes, and
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: all I'm seeing online, and again this is a twenty
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: three year old's social media. She says, all I'm seeing
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: online are people complaining about the guy. Before we get
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: into that, let's get into background, because it is an
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: amazing story in many different ways. So the little girl
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: is basically like a little toddler. She's like three. I
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: think she fell overboard. This all happened on Sunday, and
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the news is out now that everybody's okay, that's the
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: good thing. It could have been tragic. He apparently had
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: to tread water. Get this. I asked myself the same
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: question you're probably thinking right now. I don't think I
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: could do it. He had to tread water for twenty
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: minutes while holding on to her before the lifeboat showed up.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: And all the witnesses who said they saw this thing happening.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: You know, if you've ever been on a cruise ship
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: or watch from watch one from Afar, it looks like
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: they're barely moving, right. They are flying as far as
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: nautical terms go, so very quickly something stationary in the
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: water turns into a little tiny dot. That's how far
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: away it goes. So that explains the twenty minutes before
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: the boat had to go around, the rescue boats got
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: to him, whatever, but he got to her. That's the
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: amazing thing. Before we get to the so called controversy
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: over this, here are some passengers who saw the whole
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: thing go on, and of course it's all on cell phones,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: but they explained the whole situation and a lot of
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: it's interesting because it's a family cruise. A lot of
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the witnesses were worried about the mom, you know, back
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: on board on this. But here's what some of the
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: people said. And I just saw her crying and I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: just felt for her at that moment, and I just
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: started crying. That was a very thing that he did.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Everyone was cheering on the ship and the quick response, Yeah,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: that's you know, Disney's like, whew, everybody's okay, We're not
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: going to get sued to the hilt now yet. Anyway. Now,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: those are people who witnessed it, right, They witnessed the
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: dad jumping overboard, they saw the action. They were just happy,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: and there's mass cheering on board. You probably saw some
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: of the videos. There was like a everybody had gone
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: to that side of the ship to see what's going on,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: and they were all excited, and he did heroic dad, right,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: incredible feat of strength and courage. We all like to
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: think all of us dads, all parents would like to
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: think we would do the same thing. I like to
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: think that I would hope that I would too in
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the moment, and I think a lot of us would.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Dad power baby. Now here's the controversy, of course, because
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: of course people are bitching about it. But this is
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: a little complicated because at first you're thinking, well, how'd
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: this happen in the first place. It's al most tough
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: to fall overboard on any cruise ship. I mean it's
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: like if you've ever been in and this was a
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Disney cru I've never been in a Disney cruise, but
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: have been on almost every other cruise line. There's plexiglass
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: up on the thing, so you don't do this, so
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: you don't fall. Well, this was an area where there
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: was just a railing, and I don't think it was
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: a very I think it was right by the lifeboats. Anyway,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: here's what people are saying. He had positioned her up
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: on the railing to take a family photo and that's
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: when she fell off. Stupid move. Absolutely, I'm sure this
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: guy whenever he talks, if he talks, he'll say the
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: same thing. Stupid move, and that's how she fell over.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: It was risky, it was dumb. It's almost hard to
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: do that because you would have to go out of
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: your way to do a stupid thing. But it happened.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: So people are My daughter was on the plane showing
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: me some of the comments. They said, oh my god, yeah,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: this is good. Of course, people key in on the controversy,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: not the heroic act. They're saying he made up for it,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: but he never should have been that position in the
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: first place, and really he should. I saw some comments
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: insistent you should face some charges. Can't we okay, can
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: we all just agree that it was a stupid move
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: and dad shouldn't have put the kid in that position
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: in the first place, for the family photo, for the
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Instagram shot or Facebook or tikto, whatever it was. Can
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: we just get over that and acknowledge that it's a
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: stupid thing that he did. Let's focus on the heroic act.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: This guy jumped over board from a cruise ship, tread
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: water for twenty minutes and saved his He saved his daughter.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Can we concentrate on that part of things, because that's
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: pretty amazing, But no, of course, there's got to be
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: an a nontroversy as people try to get clicks and
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: attack the guy. But whatever, I don't know. You know
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: who's the biggest winner in all of this, believe it
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: or not, not only the little kid Disney. The last
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: thing in the world they wanted it was for this
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: not to go that way, because it would have gone
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: that way if this guy didn't jump overboard. So, okay,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: let's acknowledge the stupid move on the dad's part. But
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: while we're doing that, can we also acknowledge that this
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: was an incredible act of courage and strength. I think
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: we can handle it, can't we? All right, it's kind
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: of a feel good story, I guess, except for the
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: nontroversy part of it. Let's get to the ridiculous world
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: of politics, the endless sea of turmoil. Elon and Trump
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: are fighting again. Elon's all pissed off and he's threatening
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: to primary and he member of Congress that voted for
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the big, beautiful budget bill. And because here are his reasons,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Because it does essentially not much at all to cut
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: down of national debt, and he's right about that. They're
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: both right. He's right because it is gonna kill us.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: We're in a debt spiral, and when it went to
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: the Senate before this thing gets fixed up back in
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the House. If it does, it adds a whole lot
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: more pork. It's like proof positive. Here's the takeaway that
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: the lobbyists and the special interest groups still run Congress,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: which means they're running the country. And it's scary and
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: it's terrible. He's all from Elon's point of view. He's
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: also upset that the electric vehicle the EV mandate is
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: not in it. Okay, I get that he's upset about
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: the pork. He's upset that the doge cuts that they
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: worked really hard on are still working hard on his team.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: We're kind of ignored for the most part. Some of
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: them will get through whatever and its final passage, whatever
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: it is. For Trump's part, he's saying that this electric
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: vehicle mandate was never at it and he told Elon
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: that blah blah blah, and now Trump's driking back. Okay, Well,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: let's just get to the war of words, because nobody
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: seems to talk in Washington anymore. It's all through social media,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: kind of like regular people. Right, Let's just go through
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: the timeline for a second. From Elon's part, what he's
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: threatening is and this is how it all started off.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: If this insane spending bill passes, homeboy, the America Party
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: will be formed the next day. I'm sorry, what, Yes,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: he's going to form the third party, which he says
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: is wanted and needed in this country. Our country needs
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: an alternative to the Democrat Republican Unit Party so that
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: the people actually have a voice. And then then he
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: went on he was on a poststorm all last night.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: What's the point of a debt ceiling if we keep
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: rising it? All I'm asssing is we don't bankrupt the country.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Hitting the debt ceiling is the only thing that will
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: actually force the government to cut waste and fraud. On On.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: He's upset, so's Trump. Trump took to truth Social. Of course,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to read the whole thing for you
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: because that would be just and by the way, for
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: a livestream podcast, talking about debt is kind of a
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: boring thing. What's interesting is the reaction where we go
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: from here. Trump on Truth Social threatening to unleash Elon
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Musk's own Doze department, unleashing Doge against Elon's companies. Imagine
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: that for a second, and by now we all know
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Trump but we know is capable of it. Here's a
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: little bit of the quote Elon knew long before he
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: so strongly indorced me for president, that was strongly against
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: the ev mandate. It's ridiculous. It was always a major
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: part of my campaign. Electric cars are find not everybody
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: should be forced to own one. Here's the weird thing.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: A lot of us agree with both of them. Right.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: This debt ceiling, the debt we're under this, We're it's
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: not survivable down the road. It's just not. Something has
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: to be done to cut this. And maybe there's a plan,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: maybe there's not. I don't know. Also, there's a lot
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: of good things in this big, beautiful, big beautiful budget bill.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: That's true, one big beautiful bill, Trump calls it. It's
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: a lot of good things. Uh. There's a section in
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: there to secure elections, secure the border, finish the wall funding,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: it makes the Trump tax cuts permanent. All good stuff.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: But there's a lot of crap in there too, because again,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: special interest groups, lobbyists, uh, members of Congress who were
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: just bought and sold for by by big companies. That's
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: all part of it too, So they're both right in
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: a way. But again, like when this popped up three
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: weeks ago, when the big fight was happening, Oh no,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: it's the MAGA breakup. Look, it's politics, guys, And this
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: is the mindse that we you and me, normal people
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: have to have with this. It's always gonna be this
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: endless tromoil, even within the even with the people that
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: you like. But here's what's different this time with these two.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: And I'll say the same thing I said three weeks ago.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: It's not the worst thing in the world that they
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: both are fighting over this lists it goes full nuclear
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: between the two of them because they both want the
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: same thing. And I think that's important to keep in mind.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Both of these two, both Trump and Elon, both alpha
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: personalities and different positions, are fighting for the best for
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: the country. They want what's best for the country. And
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: that's not always the case with Washington swamp politics, but
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: these two both do. So I still think this hope
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that that they can find some kind of common ground
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: because they want the best for the American people. That's
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: not always the case, and it is still unique. Here's
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: the other thing, though, I don't hang out with a
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: lot of millionaires. Billionaires got a pretty good feeling that
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: you don't either. But here's what you and I both know.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: If there's one thing that billionaires hate people at that
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: kind of level, and it's a small circle. They all
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: know each other and it's a very small world. Just
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: look at the Jeff Bezos wedding here recently. They were
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: all there. They don't like to be embarrassed. And I
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: think just reading the tea leaves just being a regular
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: person looking at this. As much as Elon and Trump
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: had been in the news for the past few years,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: doesn't it seem like Elon's embarrassed in a couple of
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: different ways. The even mandate, which he wanted very very
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: badly for Tesla, and he thinks it's important for energy
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: production for the country going forward, and going after using
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: DOGE to go after Elon's companies. Boy, that's as wow,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: that's even threatening. That is a major blow to the ego.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, think about these guys. That's he's pissed, and
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: so is Trump. The hope is and the takeaway and
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: something really important not to forget about though, which they
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: both want the best for the country, so they don't
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: have to be best buddies. This is what we learned
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. They don't have to be. But
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: there's still plenty of common ground to find. That's my
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: takeaway anyway, that's my hope anyway. So we'll see as
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: it stands right now, that one big beautiful bill, as
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Trump calls it, I guess it's stalled. They're hammering out things.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: There's more you know, politicians putting more pork in it.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: And then they're trying to fight that it's getting g exposed.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. No or not. The swamp is the
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: swamp is the swamp. But this was an interesting thought.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: If this thing passes before or on how about that Friday,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: fourth of July. I didn't even think about this possibility
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: until I heard this guy, I think Benny Johnson and
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: the great podcaster. He was talking to Hogan Gidley. Now,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: this character was a White House staff member in the
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: first Trump administration. I think he was in the communicator.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he was in the communications department. He
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: said something awesome yesterday, a great idea, and you know what,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: I could totally see this happening if this thing gets
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: signed or is ready to pass, I should say, before
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: the fourth of July. Couldn't you see Trump using this
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: as a posturing visual as he's signing it with the
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: fire literally with the fireworks going off of the background
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: on the fourth of July in the White House or
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: on the south lawn of the White House. Here's what
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Hogan Gidley said, and it's a great idea. And I
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: think he's exactly right already at the White House on
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: July fourth, on that south lawn. He's going to do
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: something big around that Bill. I could see him signing
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: it just hours before the fireworks, or maybe even during
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: the fireworks, because he understands the aesthetics. It's true too,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: he understands let's not forget for some For a matter
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: of fact, here in the background of Trump is he's
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: a marketer. He totally understands the aesthetic and how things look.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: How amazing would that How much of a win, especially
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: now with this beef with Elon going on? How much
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: of it would it be a win for Trump's sake
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: to sign this thing on America's birthday, with all the
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: pomp and circumstance around it. It looks like the biggest
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: win of all time he could do He very well
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: could do it. That's why once this thing passed, that
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: would be amazing. You gotta credit him for that. Speaking
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: of the visual, speaking of the aesthetic, and speaking of Trump,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: all these things come together. Now, this may have already
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: had and if you're listening or watching this later on,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: but as of this morning, as of Tuesday morning, Trump
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: is expected to make a visit for the grand opening
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: of Alligator Alcatraz. I was talking about this yesterday, the
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: holding facility that DeSantis loves. He's so proud of this,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: in the middle of the Everglades in Florida, surrounded by alligators,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: ice holding facility for people who are about to be deported.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: But it's a holding facility they can't escape from. Trump's
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: supposed to be there as of right now. Let's see.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Now here's the great thing. The other update on this
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: is just think about the name, talk about esthetic and
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: marketing Alligator alcatraz Come on, even if you don't like
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: the whole concept of this, that's pretty amazing. So yesterday
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: the news got out and it got into social media world,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and you can imagine the liberal meltdown about Alca Alligator
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Alcatraz on TikTok of all places. I literally looked it up,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: put in that hashtag and try to see some of
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: the videos and the meltdowns over it, and they were
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: exactly as you can expect. I just cherry picked this one.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Here's this one girl in her car, of course, which
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: is where they do all their videos. Here's her description
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: of Alligator Alcatraz. I will be in jail if I
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: see somebody wearing an Alligator Alcatraz shirt or any type
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: of merch. It is a concentration camp. And using that
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: language matters. It's a concentration camp. And by the way,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I didn't even think of it till she said it.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Of course, you got to see people walking around with
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Alligator Alcatraz shirts. They're probably being printed up right now,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: they're probably out there already, and bumper stickers and posters. God,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: it's a concentration camp. Yeah, okay, that's not an overreaction
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: at all. All Right, I'm out of material. I'm gonna
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: get down to that lake. I'm gonna try to give
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: you a visual of a beautiful lake Winnipesaki tomorrow. I'll
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: post some still shots and videos whatever, even if I
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: don't get there for the live stream tomorrow. But I'll
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: be here tomorrow in the Granite State, live free or die.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: The main takeaway number one with that incredible Disney Dad
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: story going overboard, you don't have to find controversy even
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: when somebody makes a mistake. Let's focus on the positive.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: This guy did an amazing, heroic thing. Can we at
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: least take that away from that story? And this whole
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Trump elon beef. It's not all bad because they have
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: the best interest for the country in mind. Remember that too.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: There's another thing on July first, that means only six
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: months left in the year. Time now, even at twenty
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: twenty five, has been crappy for you. Time now to
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: make the year awesome. Make today awesome too. And if
• 19:33
