• 1:22
  Speaker 3: But I'm looking at his schedule for today. He has
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: a policy meeting at the White House at one thirty,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: so I guess he'll be out of there pretty soon.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: We'll be back in action. Schedule today one thirty, a
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: policy meeting, two thirty, another policy meeting five point thirty.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: There's a policy meeting seven o'clock. There's a Rose Garden
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Club dinner. They do those now in the warm weather.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: They have these beautiful dinners out in the Rose Garden.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: You know, it was the rose garden had some roses.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: It was a big grass field with a couple of
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: roses around it, and then he decided to transform it
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: into the most beautiful, majestic place, just like an alago.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: He put in this beautiful They call it a deck,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: a patio. They say he paved it over. It's not pavement.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: It's like the finest tile. It's beautifully done. If you
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: look at the detail in it. Even the drains. He
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: put drains all around it so that you never have
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: a problem with the water there. It always drains immediately.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: But if you look at the drains, the vents in
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: the drain or shaped like the American flag. It's really
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: well done. And the old Roast Garden it was just
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: a grass field, kind of muddy, kind of wet, and
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: they throw some folding chairs on it. This new Rose Garden,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: it's the most beautiful tile, it's majestic, and they put
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: the most beautiful outdoor furniture you've ever seen, the most
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: beautiful chairs and tables and umbrellas, and it's magnificent.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Of course, the left wing yelling and screaming that he
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: ruined the Rose Garden put it back to a muddy
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: grass field. It looked horrible before. It looks majestic now
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: it looks very presidential. And they do these dinners many
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: many nights when the weather's nice, but he invites. Sometimes
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: it's members of Congress, sometimes it's different groups. But it's
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: absolutely beautiful and it's outdoors. Remember Washington, DC doesn't have skyscrapers,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: so you can see the sky, you can see the
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: stars for miles. Absolutely beautiful out there. So a Rose
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Garden Club dinner later tonight, and I think you'll probably
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: not hear anything about Iran the rest of the day.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: You'll hear some more tomorrow. But they're working on it.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: They're picking up the nuclear material and getting it out
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: of there. Hey, before he left for Memorial Day weekend,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: Well actually he didn't leave. He returned to the White House.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: But Friday morning they swore in Kevin Walsh. He is
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: the new FED chairman. He's everybody's choice. It's who everybody wanted.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: It came down to Scott Bessett would be the best,
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: but they couldn't lose him as Treasury Secretary. Next would
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: be Kevin Hassett, but again he's at the White House
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Economic Advisor. They can't lose him from that job. But
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: in that group, Wash that was the other one. Everybody wanted,
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: great choice for FED chairman. He was sworn in on Friday.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Thankfully, Unlike some of his predecessors, Kevin understands that when
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: the economy is booming it is, that's a good thing.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: We'd have to go crazy just let it boom.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: We wanted to boom. He'll do a good job. I know.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Kevin worsh is a great, great guy.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: When we pursue those aims the way. When we pursue
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: those aims with wisdom and clarity, independence and resolve, inflation
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: can be lower, growth stronger, real take home pay higher,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: and America can be more prosperous again.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: A very fine guy. Not the most exciting guy, but
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: a very fine guy. You know. The president and the
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: first term, they took a cell phone away. In the
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: first term, they gave him the official presidential cell phone,
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: which has got nothing in it. It's a very secure,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: safe phone. It has no apps, there's nothing in it.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: You can't hack into it. It's but this time around
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: he kept his own cell phone. He's got his own
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: real iPhone and he gives a cell number to millions
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: of people and they're always calling him. Joe Scarborough reveals
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: this Morning Joe Scarborough Morning. Joe reveals that he called
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: him to discuss Iran with him. And one thing about
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: President Trump, he's a very nice guy in real life.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: He's nice to you know. He sometimes he's attacking people
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: and says all kinds of vicious but he's a really
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: nice guy. Even if you're Joe Scarborough his worst enemy.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: If Joe Scarborough calls, he takes the call, he talks
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: to him for ten minutes, pretends he's listening to the advice.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: Scarborough says he gave all kinds of advice on Iran.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: He advised him stop listening to Lindsey Graham, stop listening
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: to this guy. Don't here's what you need to know.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Here's what now. Knowing the president, I'm sure he had
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: the Yankee game on and was watching that. He probably
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: hit mute and let Scarborough talk, and then when he
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: ever heard Scarborough paused, he unmute and go yeah, yeah,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: it's interesting. What else, And then he'd hit mute again
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: and keep watching the Yankee game. But I don't know
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: why Scarborough brags about this on his show, that he's
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: talking and he's calling Trump and discussing things with him
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: that's not good for his or his audience would hate that,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: but he gives a cell number. It all kinds of
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: b Mom Domni calls now and then you know that
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: Hokel calls them all the time. I don't know why.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: What's he going to do for her? He can't stand her.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: But it's interesting. He's really good at that, at buttering
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: these people up. Even if he hates you, he can
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: butter you up like crazy. You're the best, You're the best.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: I'm hearing great things about you. I love you and
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: they believe it. They all fall for it. But even
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: admitted Hochel calls all the time.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: She calls me up a lot. I immediately know it's
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: her because I do have friends in Buffalo, but they
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: haven't called me too much. Lightly says Buffalo and said, Hi,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: mister President's Kathy, Hi, Hi, could you help me here?
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Could you help me there? And we're having a little
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: problem getting this and we're trying to get that. Could
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: you give me a little hand? I say, Kathy, you're
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: always killing me. What the hell would I give you
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: a Well, I just thought i'd try. Okay, thank you
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: very much.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: But he's very good at that one. She's on the phone. Hey,
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: anything you need, you call me anytime, anything you need? Okay, goodbye.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Then he turns everybody you believe this idy, but she
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: keeps calling. I guess it feels good to keep calling him.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: So hokeel getting nothing done. Bruce Blakeman will be the
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: next governor. Fate will take care of this. Bruce Blakeman
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: will do a great, great job. And it's just it's
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: gonna be a tough race. They're gonna hit him with everything. Now.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: You could see Democrats actually get wiped out in November.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: It's not looking good for them everywhere it's you know,
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: this always turns a corner there, radical, radical, radical, way
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: too far to the left, kind of all these crazy positions.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: At some point it turns a corner. Some people feel
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: that it's starting to turn that corner. Now there's the
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: these crazy guys billionaires. The left claims they hate billionaires,
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: but they love billionaires. They love them. The billionaires are
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: who runs them, George Soros, those type of billionaires. So
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: they got two big ones. They got Soros, and the
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: other guy is in Singapore. This is Neville Roy Singham.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: He's the other Soros. Now he spends hundreds of millions
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: financing all this crap, all the most radical democratic crap
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: in this country. And Democrats now have a good thing going.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: They got Soros, who's very very old. The sun is
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: trying to take over as the crazy financier of all
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: the left wing cook stuff. But now that they got
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: this Singam, they're kind of pitting the two guys against
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: each other, you know, starting a competition who can spend
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: the most. So Soros Singam is given tons and tons
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: and tons of money funding every left wing kook movement.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Hassan Piker, the radical anti Semiti big part of the
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: life left wing has actually said publicly he was talking
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: about it on the air. He admits a Singham he's
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: the financier of these political movements, pumping tens of millions
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: into this. So all of a sudden, Soros announces he's
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: giving another thirty million to uh Now. He claimed it's
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: the group's fighting anti Semitism and other bigotry, but meantime
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: it all ends up in the wrong hands and doesn't
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: do anything. So you got these two guys competing like crazy. Hey,
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: everybody's worried about AI. You know what these college commencement speeches.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: Anytime a speaker talked about AI or the future with
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: AI that the college kids all booed. It was fascinating.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Whenever they heard AI, they would boo like crazy, and
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: even the speaker would looked a little shocked. He couldn't believe,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: couldn't believe how much they these college kids hate AI.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: You would think a group grown up with this would
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: hate it, but they don't, except for one. Apple co
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: founder Steve Wozniak actually got applaw. I guess he just
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: said it the right way. Oh no, actually no, wait
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: a minute, I got it wrong. He was against AI.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: That's why he got applause. He started talking about AI,
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: but basically he said, you don't need it. You got
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: you have your own AI. It's called actual intelligence. Forget
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: the AI, use actual intelligence. So they were cheering him
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: like crazy. Uh so these college kids hate AI. Now
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: you got Pope Leo, who for some reason issued a
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: dire warning about the threat of artificial intelligence. It's kind
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: of an unusual stand for a pope. What does this
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: have to do with the pope with the but he
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: really went after AI. It's the worst thing. It's worse
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: than the bigger threat than the Tower of Babel. I
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: mean this, I mean this is a very very left
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: wing pope. I don't know what all that means, but
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: he's really coming out against AI. But a very very
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: left wing pope. You know, he issued the first papal
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: apology for the Vatican's role in legit slavery. Well, first
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: of all, slavery was terrible, but it existed all over
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: the world back then. It wasn't the US, it was everywhere.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: It was just common. That was the way it was
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: done back then. So thank god it's gone and it's over.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: But the pope apologizing for it absolutely ridiculous. Now, I
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: guess one of the reasons college kids would hate AI.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: I guess they think because you would leave in college
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: supposedly you want to go to work and get a
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: job and have a career. And they're worried that AI
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: is going to replace all of them. And I mean,
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: let's be honest, there's some truth that a lot of
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: jobs are going to go because of AI. Jamie Diamond,
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: the greatest CEO of all JP Morgan, actually said we're
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: hiring from now on, We're hiring mostly AI brainiacs, not bankers,
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: a lot less bankers, more AI brainiacs. But Jamie Diamond
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: did say we're not going to fire people over AI. Well,
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: simply let natural attrition do the job. He said, about
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: thirty thousand workers quit or retire every year. They'll just
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: won't replace them, so they'll do it that way. You know,
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: they have about three hundred thousand employees JP Morgan, Chase
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: three hundred thousand, so ten percent a year quit or retire.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: They just won't replace them, so it'll be a lot
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: of AI. Now you've got to remember this has happened
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: before the Industrial Revolution put an enormous chunk of people
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: out of work and eventually they found other jobs of
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: the careers. There's a transition time before they do that.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: It can be five years, ten years. And the same
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: thing happened in the beginning of the century when the
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Internet and the digital stuff came in a lot of
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: people were suddenly out of work as a result. It
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: takes time, but eventually you adjust. Now, every time something
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: new is invented, everybody fears it. They fear AI. They
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: feared the internet back then. Remember when electricity was invented,
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: people were afraid of it. It was the same thing as AI.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Believe it or not. When electricity was invented, they thought
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: it was evil, terrrible, it was going to kill us
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: all destroy us. That's why Mary Shelley at the time
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: wrote the book Frankenstein about the evils how dangerous electricity
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: might be. It created a monster or something like that.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: So people always get afraid and terrified. But come back
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: in ten years you might see a whole different picture. Hey,
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: which city is becoming very hot right now? Nashville, that's
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: already hot. Austin already became hot, believe it or not. Hartford, Connecticut,
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: you know, it's been a terrible city for years. People
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: have been fleeing Hartford for seventy five years, filled with crime.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: A lot of these you think Connecticut, all these beautiful places.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Bridgeport's bad, Waterbury's man. Hartford's been horrible, but it's changing.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: People are starting to move into Hartford. A lot of
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: the homes are now going for above asking price. Prices
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: are rising, average home price way up. Hartford all of
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: a sudden taken off. Keep an eye on Hartford. You
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: nowhere else. Buffalo, Yeah, Buffalo. I mean it's the worst
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: weather in the world. You can get eight feet of snow.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: New York City is doing very well. Believe or not.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: New York City is rising. Don't believe anything you hear.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: New York City real estate is booming. Apartment sales are
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: high as ever and going They're higher than last year.
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: Rentals are totally sold up. You can't even get a
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: rental anymore. People are moving into New York like crazy,
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: and rentals are important. Those are people coming in for
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: the first time renting, and then usually many of those
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: renters start to buy a year or two later, so
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: those are often the future buyers commercial real estate in
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: New York. This is a real indicator now listen to this.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: Commercial real estate in New York fifteen million square feet
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: were released already this year. That's up fifteen percent from
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: last year. Commercial real estate up fifteen percent from last year.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Now I know you keep hearing, Oh well, JP Morgan,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: Oh they're opening in Texas, they're moving people to Tampa. Yeah,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: that's true. But you got to remember they always did that,
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: all these big companies like JP Morgan, they always had
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: a footprint in Texas, a foot the back office stuff.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: They put it down there because it's cheaper. But New
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: York is booming. Hottest neighborhood right now, Upper west Side, Brooklyn,
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: parts of Brooklyn, and the hottest the Flatiron District. It's booming.
• 15:28

• 15:31
  Speaker 3: the flat Iron District. That's where all the most expensive
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: new apartments, restaurants, everything opening down there. Hey, we'll take
