0:29
Speaker 1: dot com. All right, market's absolutely wild this morning. Let's
0:33
Speaker 1: go ahead and start with this one. Put it up
0:35
Speaker 1: there on the screen exactly twelve at twelve hours. President
0:39
Speaker 1: Trump has now intervened after a warning that was issued
0:42
Speaker 1: about potential market fallout that would have happened without a
0:45
Speaker 1: Trump Taco. Yesterday, they posted at oil prices were no
0:48
Speaker 1: longer the biggest threat to the markets, increasingly clear that
0:51
Speaker 1: bond markets would dictate how President Trump can continue increased
0:54
Speaker 1: pressure in the Iran war. As a four thirty am
0:57
Speaker 1: ET this morning, the bond market was quote now more
1:00
Speaker 1: broken than the energy market situation. The yield had hit
1:05
Speaker 1: four point four to five percent. President Trump had the
1:07
Speaker 1: same conversation as he did April ninth, twenty twenty five,
1:09
Speaker 1: when he had paused tariffs for ninety days. Remember all
1:12
Speaker 1: the whole bond market conversation that we had last year.
1:14
Speaker 1: Three hours later, he postpones all strikes on Iranian power plants.
1:18
Speaker 1: Thirty minutes later, Iran denies. The ten year yield briefly
1:21
Speaker 1: collapsed before rebounding back to four point three eight percent.
1:24
Speaker 1: Now a clear attempt by the US to contain a
1:27
Speaker 1: brewing bond market crisis, which obviously affects all of the debt,
1:31
Speaker 1: it affects mortgage rates, has huge impact on everything. The
1:36
Speaker 1: bond crisis and reaction that happened after the twelve Day
1:39
Speaker 1: or sorry, after the Liberation Day war that clearly had
1:43
Speaker 1: a major impact on his thinking. Go to the next one. Please,
1:47
Speaker 1: we can put this one up there on the screen
1:49
Speaker 1: as we say now, as seen in April twenty twenty five,
1:52
Speaker 1: this is what whose prediction was as of the early,
1:54
Speaker 1: very early this morning, that President Trump would have to
1:57
Speaker 1: intervene very very soon. Could explain the taco. Don't forget that.
2:00
Speaker 1: There are also all of these crazy things happening with
2:03
Speaker 1: the oil markets. So again, as of this morning, there
2:07
Speaker 1: was a large plunge. We remain around nine percent down
2:11
Speaker 1: for Brent Brent crude oil futures from the high that
2:16
Speaker 1: they opened on last night. However that at one point
2:20
Speaker 1: they were down like fourteen percent and they erased like
2:23
Speaker 1: half of that because of the Iranian denial that negotiations
2:27
Speaker 1: were happening. So something to keep an eye on. I mean,
2:29
Speaker 1: it's still at nearly one hundred dollars a barrel, Like,
2:31
Speaker 1: let's not pretend.
2:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, ninety bucks a barrel is not a great place.
2:35
Speaker 1: To be in, but we're about ninety for West Texas,
2:38
Speaker 1: so that's still. I mean, if this lasts a couple
2:40
Speaker 1: of days, you will likely see a reduction. I think
2:43
Speaker 1: that's the analysis I saw in gas. You will probably
2:46
Speaker 1: see it return to like three fifty something like that
2:49
Speaker 1: depends on how the individual operators are. I'm talking about
2:52
Speaker 1: the national price effers don't know about the individual states.
2:55
Speaker 1: But clearly this was bubbling up at at the population
2:59
Speaker 1: level as it should. People are furious. Good example of
3:02
Speaker 1: that was the UN ambassador Mike Waltz took to a
3:07
Speaker 1: CNN town hall and a younger voter confronted him over
3:11
Speaker 1: gas prices. Let's take a listen.
3:13
Speaker 4: I'm a waiter at a local restaurant in Queen's, a
3:15
Speaker 4: full time college student who sleeps an average of four
3:18
Speaker 4: hours at night, and it's still thousands in debt. How
3:21
Speaker 4: is a war in a country half the world away
3:24
Speaker 4: funded by the taxes pulled from my check helping me
3:26
Speaker 4: in any way?
3:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's OK.
3:31
Speaker 5: It's a valid and it's a tough question, I know
3:35
Speaker 5: for certain. And if we just look at the things
3:38
Speaker 5: the President has put in place in terms of housing
3:42
Speaker 5: and big corporations that are buying up whole neighborhoods, the
3:45
Speaker 5: tax cuts that he extended with the Big Beautiful Bill,
3:48
Speaker 5: the energy policies that we're putting in place to not
3:51
Speaker 5: only make us self sufficient, but to you know, lessen
3:57
Speaker 5: these dependencies and lower prices, even lowering prescription brug drug prices.
4:03
Speaker 5: The President's absolutely focused on what you're seeing day in
4:08
Speaker 5: and day out that's affecting your pocketbook. At the same time,
4:12
Speaker 5: as commander in chief, he has to weigh the risks
4:16
Speaker 5: and make the tough decisions facing some hard truths. We
4:22
Speaker 5: cannot have a world with a genocidal, terroristic regime that
4:27
Speaker 5: holds not only your generation but the next generation hostage.
4:31
Speaker 1: With nuclear weapons.
4:32
Speaker 5: And you know, those are the tough calls that the
4:34
Speaker 5: American people elected him to make. And I can tell you,
4:38
Speaker 5: having worked very closely with him, he doesn't back off
4:41
Speaker 5: his red lines and he doesn't interest into bad deals.
4:46
Speaker 5: But those are tough decisions, no doubt, and I know
4:49
Speaker 5: they're top of mind for the entire administration.
4:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, how do we all feel having listening to that?
4:55
Speaker 1: How's that waiter feel? How's that guy feel? The guy
4:57
Speaker 1: who's thousands of dollars in debt now getting crushed? Man,
5:00
Speaker 1: He's like, how exactly does this affect my life? That's
5:02
Speaker 1: a great question, man, And that's why I always love
5:05
Speaker 1: the town halls. People have a real way of just
5:07
Speaker 1: getting right down to it. Yeah, and yeah, you know everyone,
5:11
Speaker 1: every American should be asking that question right now of
5:13
Speaker 1: this administration and specifically of the Iran War. You could
5:17
Speaker 1: not care. You could check out. You're still going to
5:19
Speaker 1: have to pay more at the gas price, which Joe
5:21
Speaker 1: Biden found out the hard way during the Ukraine War.
5:24
Speaker 3: So and not only him, by the way.
5:25
Speaker 2: I mean when inflation spiked around the world, basically it
5:27
Speaker 2: was like a total global sweet out of almost every incumbent.
5:31
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a massive global referendum on that.
5:36
Speaker 2: You know, that inflation, and that all started with gas prices.
5:40
Speaker 2: You know, I'm thinking about that gentleman in particular to
5:42
Speaker 2: talk about he's a waiter, right, so probably you know,
5:45
Speaker 2: tips are a significant part of his income. This is
5:47
Speaker 2: somebody who would have seen a benefit from the no
5:49
Speaker 2: tax on tips provisions very likely that President Trump signed
5:52
Speaker 2: into law. You know, there's some other tax provisions they
5:55
Speaker 2: were really counting on that would be like, oh, this
5:58
Speaker 2: is going to be our sales pitch for the Mitcharns.
5:59
Speaker 2: People are going to get more money back from the
6:01
Speaker 2: government when they file their taxes.
6:02
Speaker 3: Obviously that's going on right now.
6:04
Speaker 2: You know, my parents were getting like a senior credit
6:06
Speaker 2: that I'm sure Soccer was really excited about having me
6:09
Speaker 2: and put into the tax code. But now that money
6:12
Speaker 2: that's going right back out the door and into your
6:14
Speaker 2: gas tank.
6:15
Speaker 3: And that's just the beginning.
6:16
Speaker 2: Because of course, you know, with our economy structure the
6:20
Speaker 2: way it is that fuels inflation, across the board, and
6:25
Speaker 2: you know, I hope that gas prices come down a
6:27
Speaker 2: little bit this week. But the other dynamic that we
6:29
Speaker 2: experienced during the you know, Ukraine War and COVID inflationary
6:33
Speaker 2: spikes is that they're very quick to raise the prices,
6:36
Speaker 2: takes a little bit longer to bring them back down.
6:39
Speaker 2: They like to hold them high as long as they
6:41
Speaker 2: can get away with it. So I have no doubt
6:43
Speaker 2: we'll see that dynamic hareplay on us.
6:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Yeah, remember Diesel came down. Did anybody's got
6:48
Speaker 1: a grocery price come down? Because I haven't seen it.
6:50
Speaker 1: All Right, let's go to I know, people like my
6:53
Speaker 1: McDonald's updates, my wife Jan McDonald's. I went to McDonald's yesterday,
6:57
Speaker 1: medium fries for fifty for fifty that's crazy, in what
7:01
Speaker 1: should that cost you to me? Ninety nine cents? Right?
7:04
Speaker 3: Maybe spend ninety, man, I'll give you two dollars.
7:06
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't. I don't even Donald's. So it's one
7:08
Speaker 1: of those things where this is literally my only And yes,
7:11
Speaker 1: I did use the app for all the people who
7:13
Speaker 1: were got mad at me for not using the app
7:15
Speaker 1: for fifty four fifty for a medium fry. What the
7:18
Speaker 1: hell is going on?
7:18
Speaker 3: Listen?
7:19
Speaker 2: I have the luxury of, you know, being able to
7:22
Speaker 2: take a principled stand against the app. But I am
7:24
Speaker 2: against the app because they will track you, they will
7:27
Speaker 2: punch you down.
7:28
Speaker 3: I mand you go and eat a sausage, biscuit or something.
7:30
Speaker 1: I use it one time.
7:31
Speaker 3: I don't need that kind of temptation.
7:32
Speaker 1: Now all of a sudden, it's just like, hey, you
7:34
Speaker 1: want to free sausage. You know, you want to free this,
7:36
Speaker 1: You want to free that. Well it's not who is
7:38
Speaker 1: it really free? It's not free. You're paying four to
7:40
Speaker 1: fifty for a medium fry. I can post a receipt
7:42
Speaker 1: if anybody doesn't believe me. But to that point, let's
7:45
Speaker 1: go ahead and put C seven up here on the screen. Inflation,
7:49
Speaker 1: come into a gas station and or a grocery store
7:52
Speaker 1: near you. Five dollars diesel already crushing truckers, will soon
7:56
Speaker 1: be felt across the economy.
7:58
Speaker 3: As a heartbreaking four guys.
8:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean these guys, they're like barely floating on
8:03
Speaker 1: the margins and they're talking about this forty percent increase
8:07
Speaker 1: month over month in the price of diesel. If they
8:10
Speaker 1: say that they have to take lesser loads that they
8:12
Speaker 1: have to drive in weird ways to avoid hills, that
8:16
Speaker 1: if they have a single blowout that they're in, if
8:18
Speaker 1: they have an engine problem, their entire business is done.
8:21
Speaker 1: This is like the backbone. This is the what is
8:24
Speaker 1: it the one? I think it's the one profession left
8:27
Speaker 1: in the US where you can reliably not have a
8:30
Speaker 1: college education, make like six figures actually control your own destiny,
8:34
Speaker 1: especially if you're an independent contractor, if you save up
8:37
Speaker 1: enough to have your own rig and you can take jobs,
8:39
Speaker 1: you know, as you police, you have a little bit
8:40
Speaker 1: of work life balance, even though it kind of sucks
8:42
Speaker 1: obviously to drive as much as they have to do,
8:45
Speaker 1: but they make a modest amount of money and they
8:47
Speaker 1: can generally survive. So of course that's also, as I understand,
8:51
Speaker 1: that the most maga six figure profession in the United States.
8:54
Speaker 1: So yeah, literally screwing your own voters. It's not just
8:56
Speaker 1: about who they vote for. I mean these it's a
8:58
Speaker 1: tough it's an incredible tough job, and it's the last
9:02
Speaker 1: bastion of some agency without you know, signing up for
9:05
Speaker 1: a life in front of a computer. So I really,
9:08
Speaker 1: I really feel for these guys. Forty percent increase. Yeah,
9:10
Speaker 1: a month over mond, I mean, how many business we
9:12
Speaker 1: run a business if our costs weren't forty percent, I
9:15
Speaker 1: mean we survived. But I'll be like, you start to
9:18
Speaker 1: make a lot of decisions, right, there's a lot of
9:20
Speaker 1: stuff that's going to start getting cut and especially planning
9:22
Speaker 1: for the future. So I really, I really do feel
9:25
Speaker 1: for these.
9:25
Speaker 3: Structure and this gets passed on to consumers.
9:28
Speaker 2: And they talk about in this in this article about
9:31
Speaker 2: they interviewed this guy, Miguel Caveda.
9:33
Speaker 3: He says he's spent.
9:34
Speaker 2: Eighteen hundred dollars in diesel fuel during a one week
9:38
Speaker 2: on the road and that that was a forty percent
9:41
Speaker 2: increase from what he normally does. And he recognizes He's like, yeah,
9:44
Speaker 2: I know this is going to get passed on ultimately
9:47
Speaker 2: to consumers who are going to pay more for everything
9:49
Speaker 2: that I'm hauling, because you know, that's the way it works.
9:52
Speaker 2: It's not like the companies that are more profitable in
9:54
Speaker 2: the you know, the middlemen here are going to take
9:56
Speaker 2: the hit. No, they're gonna they're going to push it
9:58
Speaker 2: down to the truckers who are in less of a
10:00
Speaker 2: position of power, and they're going to push it onto consumers.
10:02
Speaker 3: That's what's going to happen. People are going to get squeezed.
10:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. And keeping here with a little bit of this,
10:07
Speaker 1: we could show you guys some of the stuff. So
10:09
Speaker 1: for example, C six, this is where we're at now currently.
10:13
Speaker 1: This is the nationwide gas price as of this morning.
10:16
Speaker 1: This was about nine three dollars ninety five cents a
10:18
Speaker 1: gallon is the nationwide average. It'll probably hit four before
10:22
Speaker 1: coming down in a couple of days if the downturn continues. Obviously,
10:26
Speaker 1: who knows with the whole Trump Taco Israel situation. But
10:29
Speaker 1: I mean in California is five to seventy gallon? That's madness.
10:32
Speaker 1: And our producer Griffin tells us in Los Angeles it's
10:34
Speaker 1: easily six dollars a gallon, San Diego, a few other
10:37
Speaker 1: places in the state of California. So I really do
10:40
Speaker 1: feel for all those people. And what is the White
10:41
Speaker 1: House telling us? What are the conservative media, Fox News
10:44
Speaker 1: and others saying it's short term pain for a long
10:47
Speaker 1: term game. See five. Let's take a listen.
10:50
Speaker 5: This is a.
10:50
Speaker 1: Short term disruption for the long term gain.
10:53
Speaker 5: Short term pain for the long term gain.
10:56
Speaker 1: Short term pain be for long term gain. We're gonna
10:59
Speaker 1: have some short term pain with long term gain, short
11:02
Speaker 1: term pay for a long term gain, short term pain.
11:06
Speaker 2: Yes, we've got some long term gain, short term spike
11:09
Speaker 2: for a long term gain.
11:10
Speaker 1: Some short term pain for American consumers.
11:13
Speaker 4: We may have to deal with that in the short term,
11:15
Speaker 4: short term and temporary, temporary, short term pain.
11:19
Speaker 1: It's gonna suck in the short term, some.
11:20
Speaker 3: Short term pain, short term pain.
11:22
Speaker 1: We have to focus on. The short term. Memo went out,
11:26
Speaker 1: The memos out, that's the Fox News line. The boomers
11:29
Speaker 1: are like, yeah, you're right. For short term, they're just
11:32
Speaker 1: you know, sitting on their stock portfolios and there. Yeah,
11:34
Speaker 1: they're new social Security checks that are like, oh, you know,
11:38
Speaker 1: for cost more to drive to the casino to piss
11:40
Speaker 1: away my social Security stuck, So be it. That's the
11:42
Speaker 1: long term gain. Just have you seen that meme too
11:45
Speaker 1: about twenty days, Like the year is twenty thirty. The
11:47
Speaker 1: boomers will tell us you were right about the Iron
11:50
Speaker 1: War and the Iraq War, but this time Turkey is
11:52
Speaker 1: an existential threat to the United States. Yeah, it's coming.
11:56
Speaker 1: They'll learn nothing.
11:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, that's absolutely right. There's one last piece here
12:00
Speaker 2: that I just want to flag the eight because I
12:02
Speaker 2: thought this was interesting, this kind of like time limit
12:04
Speaker 2: of the short term pain. I guess they're saying that
12:07
Speaker 2: these Wall Street analysts, in these corporate executives basically feel
12:12
Speaker 2: like there's.
12:12
Speaker 3: Like a two week time limit here.
12:13
Speaker 2: The economy has a straight of hor moves deadline for
12:15
Speaker 2: Trump two weeks where you know, I mean, already oil
12:19
Speaker 2: prices have been pretty high, you know, up to one
12:22
Speaker 2: hundred dollars and beyond. Right now they're down back down
12:25
Speaker 2: at about ninety dollars a Barrow's still not great. But
12:29
Speaker 2: in any case, you know, even Trump expressed surprise at like,
12:32
Speaker 2: oh how co I thought it would actually be a
12:34
Speaker 2: little bit worse than this. There are some indications they
12:37
Speaker 2: may be directly intervening in the economy to keep the
12:39
Speaker 2: oil prices from completely spikeanic control. But you can see
12:41
Speaker 2: this as a concern, and that's the whole reason for
12:43
Speaker 2: the talker right before the market's open this morning, et cetera.
12:45
Speaker 2: But in any case, this is kind of the sense
12:47
Speaker 2: on Wall Street is like, all right, we'll give them
12:49
Speaker 2: about two more weeks if you can't get the straight
12:51
Speaker 2: of horror moves open. That's kind of when we're going
12:53
Speaker 2: to lose hope that a taco, an achievable taco is
12:56
Speaker 2: truly on the horizon. So you know, according to this article,
13:00
Speaker 2: at least, that's kind of how the clock is sticking
13:01
Speaker 2: right now.
13:02
Speaker 1: We'll see. All right, let's get to bb last thing
13:07
Speaker 1: that we alluded to a little bit earlier before we
13:09
Speaker 1: get to Andrew Wilkinson is specifically about Israel and these
13:13
Speaker 1: alleged strikes that are currently happening where they are claiming
13:17
Speaker 1: that Iran is trying to damage the holy sites in Jerusalem.
13:21
Speaker 1: The problem, of course with that is if something were
13:23
Speaker 1: to happen, whether it's false flag or a real attack,
13:25
Speaker 1: who knows from some sort of falling debris is it
13:28
Speaker 1: could trigger a literal religious war on top of the
13:31
Speaker 1: disaster that we're already in. So let's play some of
13:34
Speaker 1: this footage that was coming out of Israel where you
13:36
Speaker 1: could actually see these Iranian ballistic missile fragments according to
13:41
Speaker 1: the Israelis that struck near the Old City of Jerusalem.
13:45
Speaker 1: They're saying that it's fell roughly four hundred yards from
13:49
Speaker 1: the Western Wall and the all Axa Mosque. The reason
13:52
Speaker 1: why this is important is that the prime Minister Netsan
13:55
Speaker 1: Yahou immediately began using these strikes as evidence of holy
14:00
Speaker 1: war of being targeting and why other nations need to
14:03
Speaker 1: be brought into it. Let's take listen from the Prime minister.
14:06
Speaker 1: What do you have to say?
14:07
Speaker 6: If anyone needed an explanation of why Iran is the
14:16
Speaker 6: enemy of civilization and the enemy and the danger to
14:20
Speaker 6: the entire world, you got it in the last forty
14:22
Speaker 6: eight hours. In the last forty eight hours, they fired
14:26
Speaker 6: what terror weapon on civilians? On children. There's a children's
14:31
Speaker 6: nursery here, there's an old man, old person's home here, civilians, families.
14:38
Speaker 6: They fired terror weapons on civilians, and often they use
14:41
Speaker 6: cluster bombs, which are forbidden by international law. The second
14:46
Speaker 6: thing that they did is that they fired on Jerusalem,
14:49
Speaker 6: right next to the holy places. They sent ballistic missiles
14:53
Speaker 6: that could have destroyed the Church of the Holy Sepulcher,
14:56
Speaker 6: the Laxa Mosque, and the Western Wall, three holy asides
15:01
Speaker 6: to the three monastistic religions. They don't care. They're firing
15:04
Speaker 6: on everyone. The third thing they did is they fired
15:08
Speaker 6: in intercontinental ballistic missiles four thousand kilometers right into Diego Garcia.
15:13
Speaker 6: The American British base. They can reach now with these
15:16
Speaker 6: ballistic missiles everywhere in Europe, almost everywhere in Europe.
15:20
Speaker 1: So he talked there about remember that's why we spent time.
15:23
Speaker 1: Diego Garcia got a propaganda back there. Right to hear
15:26
Speaker 1: Diego Garcia mentioned there at the end the Alaxa and
15:29
Speaker 1: the Holy sites of Jerusalem. They're talking about that could
15:32
Speaker 1: be a potential for you know, some sort of precipitating
15:34
Speaker 1: event for a complete takeover destruction of the mosque. Also
15:38
Speaker 1: the clusters, spare me cluster munitions and targeting civilians. All
15:43
Speaker 1: the Israelis would never use cluster munitions, right except like
15:45
Speaker 1: multiple confirmed times over Lebanon. Yeah, I happen to remember.
15:48
Speaker 2: They're not even part of neither Iran or Israel signed
15:51
Speaker 2: the you know, the treaty banning use of cluster munitions.
15:55
Speaker 2: But anything from this man talking about, oh my god,
15:58
Speaker 2: civilian like you you opened this box, like you have
16:02
Speaker 2: no room to talk, like, yes, you're you're right, Iron's coming.
16:06
Speaker 2: In war crimes, you assassinated their head of state in
16:09
Speaker 2: the opening Salvos and the Americans bombed schoolgirls and murdered them,
16:14
Speaker 2: you know, murdered one hundred and sixty eight of them.
16:16
Speaker 2: So you're gonna you're gonna lecture the world about civilian life. Okay, yeah, sure,
16:19
Speaker 2: most moral army in the world.
16:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, and do not forget this This video, which had
16:25
Speaker 1: been flagged by Tarmer Carlson and many others, of a
16:28
Speaker 1: rabbi from twenty twenty four saying Hey, if we need to,
16:32
Speaker 1: we could pretend that there was an attack on all
16:35
Speaker 1: Oxa and then use it as an excuse to rebuild
16:38
Speaker 1: their temple. Let's take a listen.
16:40
Speaker 6: It's all moved by a shames to this location to
16:44
Speaker 6: that location.
16:46
Speaker 1: We don't know.
16:47
Speaker 3: Maybe one of the missiles will heed the mask and
16:50
Speaker 3: clear the place for the third veta.
16:53
Speaker 1: That could also be a miracle.
16:55
Speaker 3: If it was up to me the last time, when
17:01
Speaker 3: they shot hundreds of missiles, I would pretend that.
17:04
Speaker 1: One missile came from Iran and shoot it down.
17:08
Speaker 6: You know, then all the Arabs will go against Iran
17:11
Speaker 6: and will be the.
17:12
Speaker 1: End of the problems.
17:14
Speaker 6: You make them fight with each.
17:15
Speaker 1: Other, this bunch of lunatics.
17:19
Speaker 6: Never too late to deal with a bunch of cowards,
17:22
Speaker 6: these early leaders.
17:24
Speaker 1: They just won that passed the week. So there you go. Yeah,
17:27
Speaker 1: very controversial Rabbi miss Rachi, who was very upset by
17:34
Speaker 1: the way I talk to carls him for playing them,
17:38
Speaker 1: for you know, for absolutely exposing some of the things
17:41
Speaker 1: look that he said in the past.
17:42
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I absolutely stand by anyone's right to
17:46
Speaker 2: play some of the thinking that comes out of the region,
17:48
Speaker 2: because I've said them many times after October seventh, if
17:52
Speaker 2: you listen to the most hysterical lefty or if you
17:54
Speaker 2: listen to the totally psycho settlers about what their goals were,
17:58
Speaker 2: and you know, the lefties were saying like, here's what
18:00
Speaker 2: Israel's going to do, you would have been much more
18:03
Speaker 2: accurate in understanding where things were ultimately headed. I mean,
18:06
Speaker 2: at the time when you talked about the Greater Israel project,
18:08
Speaker 2: you were considered a complete.
18:10
Speaker 3: And total nut job.
18:11
Speaker 2: Now you look at Siri, you look at Lebanon, you
18:13
Speaker 2: look at the West Bank, you look at Gaza, you
18:15
Speaker 2: look at the whole region, right, and you've got our
18:18
Speaker 2: own ambassador being asked again by Tucker Carlson. Hey, you know,
18:22
Speaker 2: the Bible says this is the area that Israel supposed
18:25
Speaker 2: to make up. You cool, if they take that area
18:27
Speaker 2: which encompasses you know, parts or the whole of multiple
18:30
Speaker 2: countries in the region.
18:30
Speaker 3: He's like, yes, they do that. That's fine.
18:33
Speaker 2: That is official state of government policy coming from our ambassador,
18:36
Speaker 2: which was never disputed by the President or anyone else
18:39
Speaker 2: in the administration. By the way, that'd be a good
18:41
Speaker 2: question actually to ask somebody in the administration whether they
18:44
Speaker 2: stand by that. But do you put this past the Israelis,
18:48
Speaker 2: you think they wouldn't do something like this if they
18:51
Speaker 2: thought it would benefit them, They absolutely would. And again
18:54
Speaker 2: you have to think of not only do you have
18:56
Speaker 2: you know, fanatical religious fanatic who are in control of
19:01
Speaker 2: the government and deeply influential in terms of this government coalition,
19:04
Speaker 2: in terms of that society at large. You have met
19:06
Speaker 2: Yahu again as this old man who wants to have
19:08
Speaker 2: his legacy and his imprint on the world. And you
19:12
Speaker 2: have this connection between the eschatology of you know, the
19:15
Speaker 2: the Jewish, the Jewish extremists with the American evangelicals that
19:19
Speaker 2: converge in the site of Al a Samusk and what
19:23
Speaker 2: they would, you know, rebuild there's a third temple. So
19:26
Speaker 2: you know, you've got the the war justification of this,
19:30
Speaker 2: you know, racist rabbi saying like, oh, these Arabs, their
19:32
Speaker 2: their maniacs, they're they're crazy. They'll all fight each other.
19:36
Speaker 2: So you've got that idea of let's turn all these
19:38
Speaker 2: people against each other and they'll all fight each other
19:41
Speaker 2: and we won't have to deal with them. You see
19:43
Speaker 2: that in some of the worst strategy. Right We we
19:46
Speaker 2: actually know one of the attacks on Bahrain that was
19:49
Speaker 2: purported to have come from Iran actually now we know
19:52
Speaker 2: it was a Tomahawk that was a US missile that actually,
19:56
Speaker 2: you know, did the damage there in Bahrain.
19:58
Speaker 3: We've had other indication that.
20:00
Speaker 2: The Americans in the Israelis are actually responsible for some
20:03
Speaker 2: of the attacks that they are blaming on Iran. Why
20:07
Speaker 2: because they want to draw the entire region in. They
20:11
Speaker 2: want to make it so that those Arab Gulf states
20:14
Speaker 2: that they also fully join the fight without hesitation. The
20:18
Speaker 2: Diego Garcia strike, if that is, you know, if that
20:22
Speaker 2: was a false flag, which I think is possible. I'm
20:24
Speaker 2: not saying it is, I'm saying it's possible. What's the
20:26
Speaker 2: goal of that to draw Europe in. So this is
20:29
Speaker 2: the way that they think, and it's the way that
20:31
Speaker 2: they operate. And be me in those comments about how
20:34
Speaker 2: Oh Jesus Christ would lose to Jingis Khan. What he's
20:38
Speaker 2: asserting there is we can do because we are inherently
20:41
Speaker 2: the good guys, inherently, not because of our actions, just
20:43
Speaker 2: inherently this like supremacist view, we can do anything and
20:48
Speaker 2: it's still good because we're trying to prevail over them
20:51
Speaker 2: and they are inherently evil. That's his view of the world. Like,
20:54
Speaker 2: that is what he laid out. That is what he
20:55
Speaker 2: meant by those comments.
20:57
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was I mean, that quote was so wild.
21:00
Speaker 1: What was Emily's take? Actually, I'm curious.
21:03
Speaker 3: You know, Emily's very measured.
21:04
Speaker 2: She just explained, like, well, it comes from this book,
21:06
Speaker 2: and here's the view.
21:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was a little familiar, but it's like, here's
21:11
Speaker 1: the thing. He clearly was not quoting it in a
21:14
Speaker 1: way like maybe I would analytically. He was doing it
21:17
Speaker 1: in like a praiseworthy manner, and he was like trying
21:19
Speaker 1: to I think Christian evil wins out. I'm like, well,
21:26
Speaker 1: that is true, you know, in a matter of like
21:30
Speaker 1: test of wills and military force. But to cite Jesus's
21:33
Speaker 1: name in that, that's pretty wild. And I think again,
21:38
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how many times these Christian
21:40
Speaker 1: Zionists need to be like literally spit on by these
21:43
Speaker 1: literally spit on. If you think I'm joking about way
21:45
Speaker 1: some Christians there are treated before them to wake up,
21:48
Speaker 1: I will never understand it. Like they look at them
21:51
Speaker 1: like cattle. I've seen that. I've talked to some of
21:54
Speaker 1: these israel people. They're they're like, oh yeah, these crazy people.
21:57
Speaker 1: They come over here. They need us to die so
21:59
Speaker 1: that their Messiah will come back. They literally laugh at
22:01
Speaker 1: you while they take your money, and they want you
22:03
Speaker 1: to continue to support them, and they do. I just
22:06
Speaker 1: it's so nuts. You know, the Paula White stories that
22:09
Speaker 1: recently came out from our Religious Liberty Commission, and all
22:12
Speaker 1: of this put together, that's why, you know, to your
22:14
Speaker 1: point October eighth, twenty twenty three, when we're sitting here
22:18
Speaker 1: talking about greater Israel and patches and third temples, you
22:22
Speaker 1: seem like an insane person. Red Heifer Tucker, Yeah, the
22:26
Speaker 1: Red Heifer. Yeah. Tucker made a good point where our
22:29
Speaker 1: society is so secular, we can't conceive of this stuff
22:32
Speaker 1: because to me it seems nuts. But I even though
22:36
Speaker 1: it does, I am empathetic, not in like a way
22:39
Speaker 1: that I appreciate, but like empathetic enough to understand, like
22:42
Speaker 1: this is a real religious conflict for a lot of
22:46
Speaker 1: these people. And I don't put it past them both
22:48
Speaker 1: these real and yeah, you know, I mean who knows
22:50
Speaker 1: even potential some sort of what the reaction to that
22:53
Speaker 1: could be, considering the history of the region and the
22:56
Speaker 1: second Endofada, And they're like going, you know, like going
22:58
Speaker 1: to the mosque or the temple.
23:00
Speaker 3: Yeah.
23:00
Speaker 2: Nothing kisses me off more though than when they try
23:03
Speaker 2: to frame this as some like two thousand year old
23:05
Speaker 2: blood feud.
23:06
Speaker 3: It's like, Israel is a modern creation.
23:10
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying everything was hunky dory all the time,
23:13
Speaker 2: but you had Christians, Jews, and Muslims who buy and
23:16
Speaker 2: large were able to peacefully coexist for generate No, this
23:19
Speaker 2: is not a religious battle. This is a political battle
23:23
Speaker 2: over land, territory and sovereignty. That's what this is. And
23:26
Speaker 2: so you know, I think the leaders who are involved here.
23:30
Speaker 2: You know, Trump is not Trump is not an evangelical
23:33
Speaker 2: right but he's happy to use that if it serves
23:36
Speaker 2: his war aims. Not Yahoo is by all accounts a
23:40
Speaker 2: secular person, like a you know, not super fanatical religious,
23:45
Speaker 2: but is he happy to use you know, people's genuine
23:48
Speaker 2: religious views and fanaticism. Frankly, is he happy to use
23:52
Speaker 2: that for his war ams, Of course he is. So
23:55
Speaker 2: it's like any other sort of sy up. It's a
23:58
Speaker 2: tool to manipulate the masses. It's a tool to justify
24:03
Speaker 2: things that are otherwise not at all justifiable, you know.
24:06
Speaker 2: I mean he uses also not in y'all, this language
24:08
Speaker 2: of the children of the light and the children of
24:09
Speaker 2: the darkness. Again, the framing that he puts out to
24:13
Speaker 2: the population, and the population believes, by the way, judging
24:16
Speaker 2: by their own reaction to, you know, the atrocities that
24:18
Speaker 2: their state routinely commits. He puts out that, effectively, they
24:22
Speaker 2: are always in forever the good guys, period, end of story.
24:26
Speaker 2: And I think there's a lot of Americans who believe
24:27
Speaker 2: that about America too. If it's us, then it's the
24:29
Speaker 2: good guys. It doesn't really matter what we do. If
24:31
Speaker 2: we did something that was it was an oopsie, it
24:33
Speaker 2: was an aberration. If one of our sworn enemies does
24:36
Speaker 2: something bad that speaks to their direct character, that's because
24:38
Speaker 2: they are inherently bad. And so that's how they can
24:41
Speaker 2: go about justifying all of these you know, wars and
24:44
Speaker 2: wars of aggression, and you know, invasions and ethnic cleansing
24:48
Speaker 2: and genocide, war crimes and bombing school girls, et cetera.
24:51
Speaker 2: It's because they're inherently the good ones. So in any case,
24:54
Speaker 2: anytime I hear now that like directly religious rhetoric come
25:00
Speaker 2: from any of these leaders, but Natanyahu in particular, my
25:02
Speaker 2: ears really perk up because I think it's very, very significant.
25:06
Speaker 2: And so the moment he mentioned, like, oh, and Iran
25:09
Speaker 2: is targeting near the Alaksa Musque, I found that to
25:12
Speaker 2: be a very ominous comment from him.
25:14
Speaker 1: Totally agree. All right, we got Wolkerson standing by. Let's
25:17
Speaker 1: get to it.
25:20
Speaker 2: All right, guys, looks like we had a scheduling snafu
25:23
Speaker 2: with Lawrence Wilkerson. So hopefully we'll be able to work
25:25
Speaker 2: that out to get him on the show in the
25:28
Speaker 2: near future because I definitely want to speak with him.
25:30
Speaker 2: But in the meantime, we've had some breaking news. Trump
25:33
Speaker 2: apparently talking on the phone to a couple of his
25:36
Speaker 2: favorite hosts over at CNBC. Joe Kernan reported that this
25:40
Speaker 2: is how their conversation went.
25:41
Speaker 3: Let's go and take a listen to that.
25:43
Speaker 7: President went on to say or insists that this is
25:47
Speaker 7: regime change because it's totally different people that were involved
25:52
Speaker 7: in the last regime. I would imagine some of the
25:57
Speaker 7: people are the same. This is the president's take on that,
26:01
Speaker 7: insisting that it's regime changed.
26:03
Speaker 2: So I don't know, Sagaris is like an attempt for
26:05
Speaker 2: Trump to declare mission accomplished. I don't know, but we
26:07
Speaker 2: did change the regime because we've murdered the Ayahtola and
26:10
Speaker 2: now his son is in charge is reportedly more hardline.
26:12
Speaker 2: I mean, they killed a bunch of the people who
26:14
Speaker 2: he even said that they killed a bunch of the
26:16
Speaker 2: people that they thought maybe they would be negotiating an
26:18
Speaker 2: end to the war. So he's trying to frame this,
26:21
Speaker 2: I guess as some sort of a positive Yeah.
26:23
Speaker 1: Look, if this is what it takes to say mission accomplished,
26:27
Speaker 1: mister president, your genius, You've accomplished nobody could else, nobody else,
26:35
Speaker 1: and I really mean nobody could have.
26:37
Speaker 3: Done it quite like you.
26:38
Speaker 1: Quite like you. I'm giving you all preview of I'm
26:42
Speaker 1: going to try and sye out my way on Fox
26:44
Speaker 1: News and give an incredibly serious like take praising him,
26:48
Speaker 1: but also pepper it with little things like that and
26:50
Speaker 1: be like, thank you for your bravery this decision. So yeah,
26:55
Speaker 1: I mean, look, if this is what it takes, this
26:57
Speaker 1: is what it takes. At the very same time, we've
26:59
Speaker 1: got this interview that he just did with Maria Bartriomo.
27:04
Speaker 1: Let's take a listen, Welcome back.
27:06
Speaker 8: I just spoke with President Trump and he told me
27:10
Speaker 8: that Iran wants to make a deal badly. He said
27:13
Speaker 8: that the talks have been ongoing. I said, how much
27:16
Speaker 8: longer will this conflict go on? He said, the talks.
27:19
Speaker 8: I said five days to halt or postpone strikes on
27:25
Speaker 8: the electrical infrastructure. It could happen sooner, he said, but
27:30
Speaker 8: I have put down five days. I asked him what
27:34
Speaker 8: his reaction is to Iranian state television saying that there
27:39
Speaker 8: are no talks, and he said he's not sure what
27:42
Speaker 8: they are referring to, because the most recent talks happened,
27:45
Speaker 8: in fact, last night with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner
27:50
Speaker 8: and their counterparts. When I asked about the Iranian TV
27:53
Speaker 8: saying that no talks have happened, he said, it's hard
27:56
Speaker 8: to get any information there because of the US is
28:01
Speaker 8: blowing up so much of their infrastructure. So again, he
28:05
Speaker 8: wasn't sure what Iran State TV was talking about, because
28:08
Speaker 8: the most recent talks, he said, happened last night with
28:12
Speaker 8: Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Again, the President just told
28:15
Speaker 8: me moments ago that the Iranians want to do a
28:19
Speaker 8: deal badly. The market, of course, has reversed course this
28:23
Speaker 8: morning after the President posted this morning in the middle
28:27
Speaker 8: of a big decline in markets, he said that he
28:31
Speaker 8: has directed the military to postpone strikes on the electrical
28:37
Speaker 8: infrastructure and the power plants for five days as these
28:41
Speaker 8: talks continued.
28:42
Speaker 1: There you go, Actually, I mean, look, he's claiming some
28:46
Speaker 1: Kushner and wit cough exchanges. Iranian TV saying no talks
28:50
Speaker 1: have happened, by the way, not there's no public reporting
28:53
Speaker 1: that this is even true Axios, which is like the
28:56
Speaker 1: White House sscribe when they were talking about the what
29:00
Speaker 1: they said it was ya intermediaries of Egypt, Turkey and
29:04
Speaker 1: a few other countries which we're talking to. Both were
29:07
Speaker 1: messages being exchanged. In reality, I mean, here's the truth.
29:10
Speaker 1: What it probably was. The US were like, hey, here's
29:12
Speaker 1: our demands, and the Iranians were like, hey, here's our demands.
29:15
Speaker 1: You know, to the Turks or to the Egyptians, and
29:17
Speaker 1: they were just calling each other saying what it was.
29:19
Speaker 1: There's been no subs Obviously, there has been no actual
29:22
Speaker 1: substantive exchange. If Jared Kushner and Steve Wikoff have proof
29:26
Speaker 1: of this, they should release it. The Iranians are denying
29:28
Speaker 1: it completely outright that any of it has happened. Again, look,
29:32
Speaker 1: if he needs to pretend, be my guest that there
29:35
Speaker 1: are some functional talks that are happening, but that would
29:39
Speaker 1: require Iranians actually taking it seriously and constraining Israel. And
29:44
Speaker 1: you know, look, our show is a bit difficult to
29:46
Speaker 1: program this morning because so much breaking news is happening.
29:49
Speaker 1: But it's like I said, the Israeli Air Force has
29:51
Speaker 1: already announced quote the air Force has begun a short
29:54
Speaker 1: while ago another wave of strikes targeting infrastructure of the
29:57
Speaker 1: Iranian terror regime across Tayran. Combine that also with some
30:01
Speaker 1: of the comments that were made here to Maria Barceriomo,
30:04
Speaker 1: there is no indication that any actual off ramp is
30:08
Speaker 1: being pursued. Is this a moratorium of all US strikes,
30:12
Speaker 1: of all Israeli strikes? No, it's saying that the promised
30:16
Speaker 1: energy strikes that would happen in five days have been
30:19
Speaker 1: called off. Now at this point, maybe it'll never happen,
30:21
Speaker 1: but a low grade war is still a disaster for
30:24
Speaker 1: the straits of Hormuves, for the closure of you know,
30:26
Speaker 1: for the closure of the straits of Hormoves, for continued
30:28
Speaker 1: missiles being fired, of tit for tat escalation between the
30:32
Speaker 1: Israelis and Iranians, of American service members of all the
30:35
Speaker 1: GCC countries. So let's not pretend like this is over
30:37
Speaker 1: right now, right, I mean this morning, I was looking
30:40
Speaker 1: and reading an oil analyst who said, if the war
30:43
Speaker 1: ends today like fully ends today, four months still of disruption,
30:46
Speaker 1: four months in the oil markets from lost production, seven
30:50
Speaker 1: months to get the Katari ras Lafon facility back online
30:53
Speaker 1: to a limited capacity. Remember they had extensive damage which
30:56
Speaker 1: will take multiple years to repair, billions of dollars to
30:59
Speaker 1: have to be reinvested. And there is a mismatch of
31:02
Speaker 1: global tankers right now where a lot of tankers who
31:04
Speaker 1: traditionally will be transitting are now actually coming to the
31:07
Speaker 1: United States to pick up oil from here or LNG
31:10
Speaker 1: and then take it back over there. So it would
31:12
Speaker 1: take months. I mean, you know, these are huge, gigantic
31:14
Speaker 1: ships with cargo and contracts are already being canceled out
31:18
Speaker 1: until April. So it's good even if it ended today,
31:22
Speaker 1: which it's not. This buys every week basically is another
31:27
Speaker 1: month or so of disruption from his from the way
31:30
Speaker 1: that he outlined it, and his real doomsday was another
31:33
Speaker 1: two months. He's like another two months, and it's like that.
31:36
Speaker 3: Think about too a few things.
31:38
Speaker 2: Number one, I mean, just ask yourself as the straight
31:40
Speaker 2: ofform moves opening anytime, right, No, No, the Iranians are
31:43
Speaker 2: not opening. The straight ofform moonves, which is what the
31:44
Speaker 2: original threat from Trump was all about. Which you know,
31:47
Speaker 2: that whole problem is just created exclusively obviously by this war.
31:51
Speaker 3: That we chose to start.
31:53
Speaker 2: So you know, as long as the straight ofform moves
31:56
Speaker 2: remains closed, the war continues on and it continues to
31:59
Speaker 2: be devastating for everybody in the world, the global economy,
32:02
Speaker 2: developing world. I was already seeing, you know, in India
32:05
Speaker 2: a bunch of restaurants have had to close because they
32:07
Speaker 2: don't have gas to cook with. People already got long
32:10
Speaker 2: cues for exactly that kind of you know gas that
32:13
Speaker 2: they use for their cooking. So you're already having huge
32:16
Speaker 2: global repercussions. Obviously you're seeing the repercussions at the gas pump,
32:20
Speaker 2: so you know that is extraordinarily important. The other thing
32:23
Speaker 2: I was thinking about soccer is think about Trump's timeline here. Okay,
32:27
Speaker 2: so he announces this right before markets open on Monday,
32:30
Speaker 2: and he's like five days of a ceasefire.
32:33
Speaker 3: Well, guess what that puts us.
32:34
Speaker 2: Said market clothes on Friday, so that he can you know,
32:37
Speaker 2: do whatever he's going to do next then. And so
32:40
Speaker 2: you know, I continue to think that this is this
32:42
Speaker 2: is him trying to buy some time for him to
32:46
Speaker 2: make a decision on whatever is going to come next.
32:49
Speaker 2: The Iranians do not seem like they're backing down at all,
32:51
Speaker 2: and these Raelis continue to attack, So you know, if
32:55
Speaker 2: he's serious about actually de escalating and try and find
32:59
Speaker 2: some sort of an off ramp claiming mission accomplished in
33:02
Speaker 2: some sort of sense, the first thing you have to
33:05
Speaker 2: do before you even put out your message about how
33:08
Speaker 2: we're going to give it five days, first thing you
33:10
Speaker 2: got to do is call if your attack dogs in Israel.
33:13
Speaker 3: Clearly that did not happen, and you know.
33:15
Speaker 2: Again I would be very skeptical of claims that Trump
33:19
Speaker 2: always so mad at the Israelis for attacking the Iranian infrastructure.
33:22
Speaker 2: I would be very skeptical about these claims. So you know,
33:25
Speaker 2: it's all market manipulation and game playing as far as
33:28
Speaker 2: I can tell.
33:28
Speaker 1: Exactly, that's you know, final like in terms of what
33:31
Speaker 1: we know as of this morning. That's what it all is.
33:33
Speaker 1: It's all about trying to calm markets. It's all about
33:36
Speaker 1: trying to I mean, if you think about it tomorrow,
33:39
Speaker 1: maybe we'll cover the TSA stuff. It genuinely feels like
33:43
Speaker 1: things are falling apart at the most basic level. So
33:46
Speaker 1: you had the Atlanta airport this morning say you should
33:48
Speaker 1: arrive four hours before your flight. Trump is trying to
33:51
Speaker 1: do something about it by sending ICE agents to the airports, who,
33:54
Speaker 1: by the way, aren't trained to do anything and all
33:57
Speaker 1: there's all they're literally going to do is sit there
33:59
Speaker 1: and be like go over there, right to a leave
34:01
Speaker 1: the airport too, which Trump just told him not to do.
34:04
Speaker 1: Trumps put out a truth, he said, please don't wear
34:06
Speaker 1: your mask in the airport. So you have, first of all,
34:09
Speaker 1: you think people are gonna like that. I mean, we
34:11
Speaker 1: have a limit of very polarized country. Maybe some people
34:14
Speaker 1: will like it in Maga country. In the rest New
34:17
Speaker 1: York LaGuardia, don't think it's going to go over that well.
34:19
Speaker 1: So you have to stand in a long ass line
34:21
Speaker 1: and then look at the most politicized agency in the
34:23
Speaker 1: entire what in the entire US government while you directly
34:27
Speaker 1: see the consequences of a government failure with TSA lines,
34:31
Speaker 1: while you're in the middle of an unpopular war. While
34:33
Speaker 1: let's say you do let's say you get some flight
34:35
Speaker 1: credit and you cancel your flight and you want to
34:37
Speaker 1: book in the future. Oh sorry, your flight's actually doubled
34:40
Speaker 1: in price because jet fuel is going for two hundred
34:42
Speaker 1: dollars a barrel. On your way home, it's going to
34:45
Speaker 1: cost more because of I mean, this is like failed
34:47
Speaker 1: state stuff. Like when you see the gas go up
34:50
Speaker 1: by a dollar a gallon in a single month, diesel,
34:54
Speaker 1: everything is all start to get more expensive. It just
34:56
Speaker 1: feels like you can't do anything anymore, even just normally, right,
35:00
Speaker 1: And that's the worst possible thing. Government rarely touches you
35:03
Speaker 1: directly in your life, so like so effectively, you know,
35:08
Speaker 1: tens of millions of people fly every single day in
35:10
Speaker 1: the country. Every single one of them's gonna have a story.
35:12
Speaker 1: They're going to talk about it when they go home,
35:13
Speaker 1: post about it on social media. Everybody's posting about gas prices. Now.
35:17
Speaker 1: Everybody's got a friend in California who's sending them a
35:21
Speaker 1: seven dollars callon thing, posting it on their Instagram story,
35:25
Speaker 1: Like this is bad for not just for Trump, but
35:27
Speaker 1: like for real, like any any sort of semblance of
35:32
Speaker 1: like confidence in your government. Yeah, and he really takes
35:34
Speaker 1: a long time to come back.
35:36
Speaker 3: And that's from something like that, And that's what were
35:37
Speaker 3: even mentioned. There was this deadly collision in LaGuardia.
35:40
Speaker 1: Yes, oh my god, right, forty.
35:42
Speaker 2: Plus people taken to the hospital after a plane I'm
35:46
Speaker 2: not sure which airline it.
35:47
Speaker 1: Was for Canada.
35:48
Speaker 2: One of the people light which yeah, collided with the
35:50
Speaker 2: truck that was on the you know, at the airport there,
35:54
Speaker 2: and so you know, and who knows whose fault that is.
35:56
Speaker 2: But we certainly seem to have a lot more of
35:58
Speaker 2: these accidents recently. And I saw something was going on
36:01
Speaker 2: at New Newark Airport air traffic control too. So the
36:04
Speaker 2: whole thing is just yeah, yeah.
36:06
Speaker 1: We had it here in entirety. We had four of
36:09
Speaker 1: our airports shutdown because the regional air traffic control had
36:13
Speaker 1: a bad smell. Look, I mean it must have been
36:17
Speaker 1: really bad to shut it all that. I mean, you
36:19
Speaker 1: can't be shutting down air traffic in the entire one
36:21
Speaker 1: with everybody knows, yes, nobody knows to the day time
36:24
Speaker 1: what that was. They're smoking Newark liberty. I mean, just
36:27
Speaker 1: put all these things together and yeah, like trying to
36:29
Speaker 1: make plans or trying to like function in our society
36:32
Speaker 1: day it's nuts. You can't fly anywhere, you don't want
36:34
Speaker 1: to drive anywhere, you want to do anything. I mean,
36:36
Speaker 1: it just really makes you feel a sense of like
36:38
Speaker 1: terrible malaise whenever you're trying to do anything. And even
36:42
Speaker 1: if you're trying to buy a house right now, you're like, well,
36:44
Speaker 1: I thought the mortgage rate has come down, oops, back
36:46
Speaker 1: up to seven percent. It's just anybody who's trying to
36:50
Speaker 1: do anything has been directly affected in the last couple
36:53
Speaker 1: of months by this exact crisis. That is the worst
36:56
Speaker 1: possible thing for you. Again, as Joe Biden found out,
36:59
Speaker 1: the very very hard weight never came back from it.
37:01
Speaker 1: And I don't know if anybody in this administration's ever
37:03
Speaker 1: coming back from this nightmare now so far, so there
37:06
Speaker 1: you go. As we said, we're very sorry to miss
37:08
Speaker 1: mister Wilkerson. We'll be happy to get him back here
37:11
Speaker 1: on the show whenever we can. We've had a few things.
37:14
Speaker 1: Daylight Savings has been a major problem for some of
37:17
Speaker 1: our I promised I wouldn't make it into a big
37:20
Speaker 1: thing out of respect for the war, but it's starting
37:22
Speaker 1: a great on me how things are going. Anyways, we're
37:25
Speaker 1: about to do our ama, so we'll see you all later.
37:27
Speaker 1: Thank you all so much for watching.
