• 0:32
  Speaker 3: Bill is official. It has past the House and what
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: is in it is going to have a huge impact
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: for all Americans. Will break down exactly what was in
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: that bill coming up in just a moment. Up next,
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: you may not hate the media as much as you
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: should after a study has come out stating just how
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: much negative news there is during the first hundred days.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: On Donald Trump and Elon Musk, I'll break that down
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: for you as well. And finally, RFK Junior and Donald
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Trump teaming up to make America healthy again, and why
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: is the media fighting against it. We'll have that audio
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: for you in a moment. It's the forty seven Morning Update,
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: and it starts.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: Right now, story number one. It's been made official.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: The House of Representatives erupts and cheers and a pause
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: as President Donald Trump's One Big, Beautiful Bill officially passes
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: the House.
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: On this vote, the YASER two hundred and fifteen, the
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: NASER two hundred and fourteen, with one answering present.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: The bill is passed.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: USA USA with chants of USA, USA, USA. The four
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: erupted with clapping and excitement high fives. So what is
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: actually in this bill and how big of an impact
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: can I have on you and your family? Well, let's
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: start with this one. No tax on tips and or
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: overtime pay. What does this mean? And it means increase
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: take on pay instantly. Workers in the service industries and
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: hourly jobs benefit immediately by now being able to keep
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: one hundred percent of their tips and overtime. That will
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: boost income without increasing labor costs for the employers, which
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: is a huge win for the economy. We also know
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: that in this bill they are simplifying tax filing, reducing
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: complexity at both employees and the irs, which will be
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: a huge win also for small businesses and small business growth.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: We also have stronger incentives to work extra hours. Now,
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: this bill encourages productivity and helps businesses meet demand with
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: more willing workers who are already on their payroll. Now,
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: there's also some other aspects this bill that are incredible.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: One hundred and seventy five billion for deportation and border
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: wall funding. Donald Trump making good on a promise that
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: border secure is going to be a top priority. Not
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: only does this boost enforcement as well as technology and
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: infrastructure at the southern border, which Donald Trump argued would
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: reduce illegal immigration, drug trafficking, and human smuggling. There's also
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: to turn effect a large scale investment sends a very
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: strong message to White House, says that immigration laws will
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: be strictly enforced as long as Donald Trump is in
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: the White House.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: And there's also job protection in this bill.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump said it's a way to protect low skill
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: American jobs from being undercut by a legal immigrant labor.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: Now, let's move on to also something else.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: That was in the big beautiful bill, tax relief for
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: seniors higher disposable income. This is something Donald Trump said
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: was extremely important because it reduces the financial burden on retirees,
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: especially those living on a fixed income. There's also greater
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: economic participation because of this bill. Seniors may have more
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: freedom to spend or invest or support family members. And
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: then there's a healthcare costs buffer as well. It will
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: be easier to manage out of pocket medical expenses or
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: rising living costs in this country. Now, there's also the
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: biggest part of this bill that will have a huge
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: impact on every American, and that is making the twenty
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: seventeen tax cuts permanent. Certainly for families and businesses, long
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: term planning is easier when tax rates are lower and
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: locked in, which this bill does, and the lower individual
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: tax rates will continue helping middle class earners keep more
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: of their paychecks. There's also support for small businesses and
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: passer entities like LLCs andes corps continue to benefit from
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: deductions and spurring entrepreneurship and growth, especially among younger workers.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: The last thing that the President talked about that was
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: so good was this the economic boost. There will be
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: more money in consumers pockets that can lead to higher
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: spending and economic activity, and it's.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: A pro worker appeal.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: The bill positioned itself as rewarding hard work aka tips
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: and overtime and protecting American jobs in the process. And
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: there's long term structural changes by locking in tax policy
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: and beefing up immigration enforcement. The President said this is
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: fulfilling his long promised reforms of putting American workers first
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: and making America great again.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: Now story number two, there is a.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: New study that has just come out that makes us
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: realize we may not hate the media as much as
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: we actually should for their bias and lying against Donald
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Trump and people that are close to him. We all
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: know how much the media lied about Donald Trump Russian
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: collusion is a great example, or how much they protected
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: the Biden crime family by claiming that the Hunter and
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Biden laptop wasn't even real. We also know that they
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: used the media countless times to try to impeach Donald Trump,
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: not once but twice, and to overthrow the the people.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: But what happens when you are an ally of the
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: president and you're standing with him in his second term
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: in office. Well, now we understand, because of the data,
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: just how hard it is to stand up for what
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: you believe in a recent study by the Media Research
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Center has found that Elon Musk received ninety six percent
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: negative coverage for major US television networks ABC, NBC, and
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: CBS during the first one hundred days of President Donald
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Trump's second term. Now, how extreme is ninety six percent
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: negative coverage. Well, during the first hundred days of President
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Donald trump second term, he only received ninety two percent
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: negative coverage for himself during the same period, meaning that
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: the media understands that Donald Trump is evil in their eyes,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: and they'll do whatever they can to take him out.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: But if you're an ally of the president, they'll come
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: after you even harder. Now, the analysis focused on evening
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: newscasts and highlight the intense scrutiny that Elon must face,
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: particularly in the role as head of the Department of
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Government Efficiency, you know it as DOGE. The study's findings
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: have sparked discussion about media extremist bias and the portrayal
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: of influential figures in the tech industry who stand with
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump. What's even worse is the fact that they
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: do it to destroy his entire livelihood, attacking his companies
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: and anything that he has invested in. Joe Rogan talking
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: about this in his show with Aaron Rodgers, and here
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: is what they had to say about the shocking details
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: of this report.
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: And recently that showed that ninety six percent of all
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: the stories that mainstream media prints about ELON are negative
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: ninety six percent. Meanwhile, the guys saved those people trapped
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: up in space. Yeah, you didn't hear a pete and
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: the city.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: Does when there's natural disasters with the starlink.
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, revolutionizing space travel, revolutionizing satellite internet capabilities and
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: the availability all over the world. It's crazy, It's really.
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Crazy, and saving billions of dollars of your tax money
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: from going to fun stupid a programs.
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: It's not just all over the world programs. Some of
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: it is like, you don't even know where it went.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: It's corruption too.
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: He said that some of the money that there was
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: billions of dollars that was written out with no receipts
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: at all. He said, if this was a private company,
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: or excuse me, a public company, they would be delisted
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: and all the executives be thrown in prison. But in
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: the government it's just like standard practice.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: How come nobody has gone to prison. That's one of
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: my main questions for Trump and the administration. It's a
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: good question, it is a great question.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: Why aren't people going to jail, and there's a good
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: chance moving forward that may actually happen. As for Elon Musk,
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: he's responded to the new studies results, accusing the legacy
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: media of dishonesty and suggesting that the negative coverage is
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: part of it deliver a campaign to undermine him due
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: to his influential status and political leanings. Now, this situation
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: clearly underscores the relationship between the media and the narratives
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: that they want to push on public perception, especially concerning
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: high profile individuals who play a significant role in Donald
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: Trump's administration. One thing is for sure, this study needs
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: to be shared everywhere so that the people understand that
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: when you're watching the nightly news, you're not actually watching
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: the news anymore on ABCNBC or CBS, you're watching liberal
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: government sponsored propaganda, and it's there to undermine Donald Trump
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: and anyone around him in the administration.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: And lastly, story number three.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: One of the main promises from Donald Trump was that
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: he was going to make America healthy again. Insert RFK Junior,
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: who is on a crusade to make sure we stop,
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: as he describes it, poisoning our children. Not only is
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: it about the basics like food die. But it's also
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: about processed foods, and many believe that processed foods are
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: important because they're cheap. RFK Junior says, no, no, no,
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: you end up paying a higher cost in the long run.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: He did a sit down interview in front of the
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: White House talking about what is next with making America
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: healthy again, and here is what he had to say
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: in sixty days.
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: On ultra processed foods and getting into that here. You
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: were born into a privileged background, obviously not something you
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: can control. But I wonder what you would say to
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: maybe a single mom of two kids who's reading this
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: report about how harmful these cheap but very accessible foods
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: are for her family and saying, well, you know, sometimes
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: that's the best we can do, and that's why that's
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: what's on the food or at the table at the
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: end of the day, or that's what's in their lunchbox.
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: It's an illusion to think that process food is cheap,
• 10:52
  Speaker 7: because you end up paying for it with diabetes, you
• 10:55
  Speaker 7: end up paying for it with automun dysregulation, with mitochondrial dysfunction,
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: and with inflammation, and you end up paying much higher
• 11:04
  Speaker 7: cause in the long run. But there are food deserts
• 11:07
  Speaker 7: in this country where people at this point have a
• 11:11
  Speaker 7: hard time getting access. There are I met with the
• 11:14
  Speaker 7: technology health technology companies this week and it was an
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: extraordinary meeting and one of the stements they made is
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: that there's no place in this country in the lower
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: forty eight you can't get access to good foods. It's
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: not easy access that has had been in the past,
• 11:28
  Speaker 7: and that's been part of the economic drivers and also
• 11:31
  Speaker 7: the fact that people don't understand that these process foods
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: are poisoned.
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: More and more.
• 11:36
  Speaker 7: And you're watching watching companies now that are changing their
• 11:41
  Speaker 7: ingredients because of this movement, that are making good food
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: more available to Americans because they're demanding it. There was
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: no demand for it before. This report is about getting
• 11:52
  Speaker 7: every American to demand the accessibility to good whole food
• 11:57
  Speaker 7: in their neighborhoods and that you know it's going to
• 11:59
  Speaker 7: be a process, but it's already happening. You see these
• 12:03
  Speaker 7: big fast food conglamorates that are switching from seed oils
• 12:07
  Speaker 7: to beef califat you see, and then reducing the ingredients.
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: You see Chobani yogurt changing its ingredients because of the
• 12:15
  Speaker 7: demand that has happened because of the MAHA movement. We
• 12:18
  Speaker 7: are going to make sure they have the apps, that
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: mothers who go into the grocery store have an app
• 12:23
  Speaker 7: that they can show on the Senate flash on the
• 12:27
  Speaker 7: bar code of every product and get a green light,
• 12:29
  Speaker 7: red light or yellow light that will allow the at
• 12:32
  Speaker 7: Justice creating it. We're working with industry to do it,
• 12:35
  Speaker 7: and they're already doing it. You know that Mark Heyman's
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: company has done it. Patrick's seems a company has done it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 7: There are many many apps out there that I use.
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: One called Yukka is very my wife and I considered invaluable.
• 12:48
  Speaker 7: You can go into any grocery store flashing at any
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: product and you can get a go or a no
• 12:53
  Speaker 7: on it. And as that happens the market. We're not
• 12:56
  Speaker 7: trying to create an anti state here. We're trying to
• 12:58
  Speaker 7: create mark drive market forces that will drive change in
• 13:01
  Speaker 7: the kind of food Americans get and into good information
• 13:05
  Speaker 7: and good science.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Isn't it amazing how the media just can't stand the
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: fact that RFK Junior and Donald Trump are working together
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: asking questions about processed food, doing what they can to
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: help America be healthier again and to protect kids from
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: childhood abuc rates that we've never seen before. I love
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: that they're doing this, and it's really sad that the
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: media is fighting them, not because they disagree with having
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: healthier kids, but they can't stand the fact that it's
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump doing it.
• 13:36
