  Speaker 1: Steve Moore, how you doing.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Hey, Mark? I'm doing great. You know, the economy is
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: doing well. Everything's headed in a good direction. If we
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: could get rid of some of the high taxes in
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: all these blue states, because the red states are un great.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: But every time I turn around, you've got another Democratic
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: governor who's talking about raising taxes.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Hey, will you explain the Super Bowls coming up? Seattle, Seahawks.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: This crazy governor there Seattle. He wants to put a
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: tax on the players, like an extra.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: At just the time they're finally going to the Super Bowl.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I think this is their third Super Bowl in what
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: fifty years, and now they want to put the tax
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: on the team and the players, And so how are
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: you going to get all the good players to come
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: to Seattle if you're going to put an income tax
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: on the on their not just the Seattle players, but
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: when you know, a player comes in from another team
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: and plays in Seattle, they'd have to pay the day
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: nine and a half percent income tax.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Is that even legal that you're just visiting the play
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: a game and you get taxed by a state.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: It is legal, and in fact, there are other I
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: think New York does this by the way. I think
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: you know, when a player, you know, baseball player goes
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: and plays in the Yankees, they have to pay ten
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: percent income tax on the money that they earn in
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: New York, which I don't think should be legal, but
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: it is. But but you know, here's the thing. Washington
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: State doesn't have income tax, So what they're talking about
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: is a discriminary tax just on the people who play
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: sports in Washington State. So, you know what a sad
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: commentary right before their great moment where they're in the
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl on Sunday.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Why would you even do that? Wouldn't that pretty much
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: push the Seahawks to move to another city?
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, exactly right. You know, taxes have consequences, and
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: so you know, if you want to try to get
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: the top players, I don't think they're going to be
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: too you know, interested in going to Seattle if they
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: pay a big tax every time they play a game there.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: So that means next year they'll be the Austin Seahawks.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: So well, you know, Austin is the largest city. Is
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: now one of the ten largest cities in America, which
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: is kind of amazing when you think about it. It
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: used to be a cowtown twenty five years ago.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Wow. So, as you said, the economy is doing well,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: everything's but it doesn't always show up in the polling.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Fake news the media have convinced a lot of people
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: the economies in trouble. What can the president do for
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: better messaging?
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know it's a problem. There was We had
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: something in the hotline today and I hope all your
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: listeners get that. Just go to Least Prosperity Common sign
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: up for free and you get your every morning an
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: email to you. But the polls are bad, you know.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Fox News poll just came out saying, you know, Republicans
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: are as unpopular as they've been ever since they've done
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: the poll over the last twenty five years, and people
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: are just angry about you know, prices, and you know
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: they they're still some you know, leftover resentment about what
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: happened in Minneapolis. But you know that if you look
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: at the economy, you look at the objective evidence, it's
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: a Burman economy five percent growth. You know, the economy
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: has grown at four percent growth for the last for
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: the last you know, nine months. So you know, we've
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: got a price. The infrition rate is coming down. We
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: got an all time high on the NASTAC, the S
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: and P five hundred, and the Dow Jones. People's four
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: one K plans are going up. Gas prices have followed
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: by a dollar Dellen. I mean, it's a healthy economy
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: that people for some reason dealing the love.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Tariffs are coming down, I think the the cost of
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the tariffs.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Yes, and people are getting a big discount on their
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: taxes because of the big beautiful bill. Republicans are just
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: bad salesmen. You know, they've got a great product, they
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: just know how to sell it.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but what do you do when the fake news?
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: You know a lot of people they just see the
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: nightly news on the network. They read the newspaper and
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: they don't realize that they're getting the most slanted coverage.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: How do you fight that?
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: You know, we have alternative media now and we have
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: other prices people can get the news, and I think
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Republicans just have a better way of getting that real
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: story out there. And look, you know, we've had a
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: biased media for a long long time, as you know, Mark,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, we thankfully we have shows like
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: yours to tell people the truth, but a lot of
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: people get it through the filter of you know, CNN
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: and MSNBC and well New York Times, or they don't
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: report on the good news that's happening in the economy.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: They just won't. So we should call it the hate
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: they hate Trump media, you know, that's what we've got.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: The TDS news. So right, Uh so you said four
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: percent growth, it's possible will hit five percent growth, right,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: and this could be a boomy at our.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Buddy Larry Cudler, Our buddy Larry Cudler says, we're going
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: to get that. We'll see, we'll get a report out
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: sometime in the next week on what the fourth quarter was,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: but the first of last year, but so far this year,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: you know things are doing very well too, So I'm
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: here to tell you things are going to continue to
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: get better, folks. And we've got an economy that is
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: trump Andomics is working. By the way, there's a great
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: book called Trumpmics. Yeah, uh, by me and our laughers.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: So if you want to know why the economy is
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: really performing, go to Unleashed Posterity dot com and get
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: our book. But look, you know, we got the big
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: beautiful tax bill. We got terrorists coming down, so that
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: means ices are going to come down from that. We've
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: got you know, gas prices continue to fall all over
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: the country. That's like a tax cut. I just think
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: this guy is that is hitting all the right buttons
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: when it comes to uh, the economy. Uh, in terms
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: of people are going to get a bigger pay check
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: this year because of the big beautiful tax bill.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and revenue is up. Is it possible?
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but definite is down. Definit is down. Budget.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Is it possible by the end of his term he
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: could balance the budget?
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's you know, I don't know, that's
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: a big mountain to climb. We're at one point eight
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: billion dollars annual budget deficit. So that would be quite
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: an achievement. But if anybody can do it, Donald Trump,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: because you know one thing about that. One of the
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: reasons the media, This is my hypothesis. Why is the
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: media to hate Trump so much? Because he always proves
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: them wrong?
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: You know. So, hey, the Democrats, why are they still
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: fighting this voter ID thing? You need ID everywhere else
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: in the world, every other country has a voter ID.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: How could they still fight.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: This because that's how they win elections because voter fraud
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: is is rampant, especially in blue states and cities. By
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: the way, we have a pretty cute cartoon in our
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: hotline this morning, and it has you know, you know
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: how people wear those I voted things, And it has
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: the elephant looking at the donkey, you know, be the
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: donkey and the Democrat and the guy and the donkey
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: has you know, a jacket on and it has like
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: twenty five I voted and he goes, oh, no, I
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: know you don't want to voter ideas. So look, they
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: they take advantage of the system. And how many illegal
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: lenivers do you think are voting? They don't want honest
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: elections because they can't win honest elections. I believe. I
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: really believe that.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so and Kevin Warsh new fed share the guy
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Great loves Great, he.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Is a he is a Steve Moore, uh and Art
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Laugher and Mark Simone free market supply Cider.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he'll be excellent. And it was a good choice
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: because the accusation that the president will pick someone too
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: close to him, a puppet, that's not Worsh. Worsh has
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: been pretty independent and.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: You know what, Worsh, he's going to be independent and
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: he is you know what he's going to do. He's
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: going to bring inflation down to the two percent target,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: which is the best thing he could possibly do for Trump.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: And he is going to maintain America's dominance as the
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: world reserve currency. And that's such a damage mark that
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: we have over the rest of the world. Everybody around
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: the world, they trade in dollars. If it's anything in
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: international's all done in dollars. And that's a big advantage
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: to all of us as Americans. It makes our dollar
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: worth more and it makes America the number one globally
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: dominant country.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so, Worsh takes over a couple months, So how
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: soon can he make that rate change?
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Sorry?
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: When worsh takes over a couple months, how long before
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: he can change lower the rate?
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Oh? Well, you know what I want him to do.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: You talk about lowering rates, what I want. What I
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: want him to do is clean house over there at
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: the Federal Reserve Boards, the most corrupt place. And as
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: we said in the Feeder Reserve Board, you know, do
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: they really need three thousand people in Washington running the
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: monetary system? I mean, come on, they could do it
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: with three hundred. So you know, and by the way,
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: all those people are against as you know, they're all
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: against Kevin Worsh. So I've been urging him to clean
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: house when he gets there, and I think that's exactly
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: what he's going to do.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Very good idea. Hey, everybody, get Steve Moore's book. The
