And I'll put some stats behind it. So I'm not going to mention everything that we talked about Dudley. I'm not talking about any companies that he mentioned. I'm just looking at facts. Facts. State Farm and Allstate stopped selling insurance because of the California Fair Plan and Governor Newsom. Fact.
Candace
I Respond To Mr. And Mr. Macron | Candace Ep 131
State Farm announced last year they would non-renew 30,000 policies and what they called, ready for this, wildfire risk areas. And you're thinking middle of nowhere, big bear up in the forest. Nope. Guess what? They non-renewed. Here's the stat, Pat. State Farm non-renewed 69% of the policies it had in Pacific Palisades. Data point this morning confirmed.
Candace
I Respond To Mr. And Mr. Macron | Candace Ep 131
State Farm said last year, we're non-renewing 69% of the homes we insure currently today in Palisades. Why? Long-term brush risk and poor management of the common area. You can't blame them.
Candace
I Respond To Mr. And Mr. Macron | Candace Ep 131
Now I'm going to the punchline. Why did they do that? Because the county of L.A. and the city of L.A. had suspended brush removal in Palisades. This comes down to the county. Are you joking? Yeah, you can find it. You can find it was suspended here. Casual brush removal was suspended here. Limited brush removal was suspended here.
Candace
I Respond To Mr. And Mr. Macron | Candace Ep 131
This is all going to come out because... That's when Trump said he's got to clean the floor. That's exactly right. I'm not down on the insurance companies.
Candace
I Respond To Mr. And Mr. Macron | Candace Ep 131
I'm saying the insurance companies are at the bottom of the waterfall and at the top of the waterfall is the state with their policies and budget cuts on fire and brush suppression and all the things that they've done despite the level of taxes they're collecting.

Not the hiring company. These are intermediary companies that sit with one foot in Asia or one foot in the U.S., and they're helping the H-1Bs of people get along, and they're ripping them off for a 25% tax.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
That's not right.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah, I was going to say this doesn't reflect well on me admitting my temper here. But I once had a call from a guy that represented himself to be a IT recruiter. And he said he was based in the U.S. and he had a U.S. phone number and IT recruiter. He had gotten through to me with some very creative email and stuff. This goes back about 10 years.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And this is in the early time where we were looking for, remember the first product people or the first technologists at PHP? We were putting together the original three systems. So this is literally 10 years ago. And we were going to build the first app. Over the course of two phone calls, I suddenly realized he was an intermediary and all the people he said he was representing.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I did an interview with one and the guy in the interview on the phone call, this is back in Skype. It was like a Skype interview. He tells me, well, I can only come through this guy because, you know, this is it. And I said, wait a minute. I thought he was a U.S. recruiter. No, no, no, no, no, no. He's representing me. He's he's here in India.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And so I called the guy back and I said, are you a U.S.-based recruiter or are you based in India and you've got these people under contracts already? He said, well, I got them under contracts. I lost my temper with him because he had lied to me. I called him a pimp. I said he was – I remember I used that word. I said, you are a worthless pimp. I remember it. I was so upset with him.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Because I had just interviewed a couple people that were well-meaning people that just wanted to get a job in IT in the United States. on product, and I lost it. So I'm confessing here I lost it, but it was one of those people. This is real, and they take advantage of those.

Well, a quality of earnings report, so everyone knows how to sell a house. In the middle of selling a house, you need an inspection. If you're buying a house, your bank requires the inspection to ensure that the house is in good shape, and they're going to give you a mortgage for it, right? Very simple.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
An inspection times 1,000 is a quality of earnings report that gets done on your business. So they say, hey, we'd like to do an inspection. And part of that inspection is going to be quality of earnings. What do they do? They're looking for fraud. They're looking for offshore bank accounts. They're looking for transactions going back to the owner.

Everything. Wire transfers. It's like a forensics. Wire transfers.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So think of it as you're selling a company and the inspection, the house inspection to sell that company is called a quality of earnings report. And it only gets done by people like PwC and Accenture, big companies. You sell a company for more than $50 million. It is a big inspector. It takes months to do. It costs at least a quarter of a million dollars. In my experience, that's what it costs.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And guess who pays that? You, if you're selling your company, you have to pay that before it closes. So guess what? If the deal falls through, the economy crashes, they can't get their loans. It's an audit. Guess what? You have to pay it anyway.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
How could you not know what a quality of earnings is and how hard it is?

And I'll tell you something about Wikipedia. It's not an offshoot, Pat, here. I did a case study.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I did a case study some years ago, and it talked about that there is, in pharmaceuticals, they have paid lobbying organizations, PR firms, that do nothing but put stuff onto Wikipedia, and they have sensor alarms. And the sensor alarm is what it was described to me as.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
As soon as something is posted on a Wikipedia page, maybe for a drug, they see it and look at it and they go in it and they attack it. And they have multiple PR firms that attack it and change it to what they want. This is the whole AstroTurf side of gaslighting. And so Wikipedia is not... A good thing, in my opinion.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It's not particularly credible because of what has happened and the fact that these things are really going down. And so when you reference that, that's not there. But the other side of it is, to your point, who's fact checking the fact checkers? Or does it become like Wikipedia for cabals of people can basically, you know, say, hey, get on Telegram, get on the Discord group.

Hey, something just got said about the Lakers.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Go after the Lakers. Go after the Lakers. There's mechanisms in the modern Internet that can be used by groups to go after people they want to go after.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So here's what's going on. He brings up some very interesting point. I take you back to November 1st, 1993, with Helmut Kohl, who was Chancellor of Germany at the time, and François Mitterrand, one of the famous leaders of France, got together and put together the Maastricht. Treaty, M-A-A-S-T-R-I-C-H-T, Maastricht Treaty, which established the EU to do exactly what he talked about.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Because in the EU, they had the rich countries and they had the poor countries. And you had Portugal and you had Italy and you had countries that had some struggling economies. And they came together and that's what created the EU. And there it is, the Maastricht Treaty. You know, it was November 1st, 1993 is when it was ratified, and it brought them all together.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And they had one currency except the U.K. who said, you know what? We have the strongest currency out here. We're going to keep the U.K. pound because you knuckleheads are probably going to screw this up, and you're going to expect the U.K. pound to carry the currency of Europe. So that's what happened. And guess what? This is what Kevin O'Leary is saying. The U.S.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
dollar and the Canadian dollar used to be kind of close together. You know what it is right now?

A Canadian dollar, if you handed it to me in Buffalo, New York, because you came across to see Niagara Falls, you know how much I would give you? 70 cents, U.S.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah, yeah. Little loonies. So, and by the way, do you know when... Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc and Foreign Minister Melanie Joy. Wait a minute. Your finance minister and your foreign minister come to Mar-a-Lago to talk to Commerce Secretary nominee Howard Lutnick. Finance? Foreign? Wait a minute. Maybe they're talking about an EU.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And by the way, you know, an EU would make sense because the U.S. is an energy exporter right now, and it would actually strengthen Canada. And what the U.S. doesn't need is a failed Canada, but the U.S. doesn't want to be the one that rescues Canada. And so what's going on right now is Canadians don't like their taxes. They don't like what's going on in immigration.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And by the way— And they hate their leader. And by the way, guess what? Guess what the two number one and number two issues for Canada is as they push against Trudeau? What? The economy's number one. Guess what number two is? What? Immigration. Hey, that's funny. We had a similar election, and we elected a leader to lead.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Canada's people and Kevin O'Leary are reacting to the leadership of Donald Trump, even as he carries the title of president-elect. And he's talking exactly about what happened in Europe when they harmonized things to stabilize those economies.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I think it's probably 20% and rising, especially on the energy side.

Yeah, not a state, just an EU-type treaty.

No, that'll happen to Puerto Rico sooner than that would ever happen in Canada.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Well, two things, right? A somewhat stronger Canadian currency helps Canada. It actually helps us right now with the Canadian currency week when we do energy trades, right? Because they have to pay us a whole lot more Canadian dollars, you know, for the energy. So that helps us.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But if we move it together on the northern edge, remember, I believe the number is 81% of Canada lives within 200 miles of the U.S. border. Because you have Montreal, you have Vancouver, you have Toronto. And I think that's it. I think it's the 8,200 miles. 80% of Canada lives within 200 miles of the U.S. border. And so you already have all of this. Yep, there it is. 93 miles.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
80% of the population lives within 150 kilometers, only 90 miles. So you're basically talking suburbs of Buffalo, Detroit, and Seattle. That's what you're talking about. Toronto is right there. Windsor Lock at Detroit. Buffalo and Montreal right down the street from each other.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
The winner here is a stabilized Canada. And to the U.S., you know, a stabilized neighbor, I think, is very positive. And you already have a lot of labor that goes back and forth. For a lot of years, Ford has built tons of trucks right over the border in Canada, in Detroit. It looks like Detroit. Because you say, well, where does Detroit stop and Toronto begin? I can't really tell you.

By the way, if they stabilize their economy and they lower their tax rate, those consumers are buying more stuff. And we're like their largest trading partner. So they're buying stuff like energy from us.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah, coming back to your question, what does Trump do? Well, first of all,
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
First of all, you know, you look at what's happening and how do you make it stop and how do you fix it? First of all, immigrants are coming here with no place to live, with no job to get so that they can't even, in a short order, make a little bit of money to pay for a small place and it's not the affordable place. So how do you drive the price down?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
in any market supply increase the supply that's out there or reduce the demand for it so first of all and people are going to go all over the comments on this he's talking about deporting a lot of the a lot of people and once you deport people that aren't supposed to be here because they're criminals and they're floating around you know you're reducing demand but you also got to increase the supply and for the past three years builders have been building
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But it's where they're building what they're building. And you got to put, I believe, you need two things. It's not enough just to say we need affordable housing in the city of Miami. I agree we do. We need it. It's going to be more west. OK, but what are those people going to do? Where are the jobs going to be? So you need a partnership with the big cities.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
to attract business to put jobs in the big cities, Pat, that are working class jobs, then you need places for those people to live. So you have to do, Trump's going to have to get HUD and commerce together. And what I do is I get HUD and commerce together and say, look, the homelessness is tougher in these areas. I need supply of affordable housing. I need to reduce the artificial and bad demand.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Take the people that are demanding it and get them out of here. And then we've got to work with industry to bring back American jobs and opportunities so those people have something to do. So it's not a light switch. Now, the Democrats will think, well, just give them money. Give them money to go where and pay rent to who if there's not a supply of housing, right?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
You know, all you're going to have is a shortage of, you know, you're not going to have shortages. It's going to be spent on vices, and it's a fact. You spend on lottery tickets, alcohol, things like this. If you just hand out money, you can't do that. He's got to do two things.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
the supply of housing, work with that, and then work with the big cities to attract companies with jobs there so some people have something to do and get paid.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So there's a lot of angles here, a lot of angles to go. And so the first angle that I'm going to go with is, you know, I like to say if you want to look at a problem, you've got to go upstream a little bit, right? I talk about the polluted lake. Liberals want to build a $1 billion filter.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
conservatives want to go upstream and say, hey, what are the creeks and rivers putting in the lake and then stop it upstream? And it's an easy way of the problem. The first thing I think nobody was talking about over the weekend, and I think we should talk about it for a minute, is you got to go upstream. What is happening? Why aren't there? Now, some people say there's plenty.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I haven't seen the stats on that, and words talk, numbers scream, and I don't want to put a number out there. But my own estimate, based on reading a lot of articles like this and finding that— Would you say it's a big number or a small number?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
No, I would say it's probably about—my guess would be it's probably about 25% based on reading things about the number of kids, the number of people that had an addiction like alcohol, or they had things like a DUI, lost the car, couldn't drive— I guess, you know, anymore and things like this. I would say you probably have just probably 20 to 25 percent of them.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Just my gut guess, my observation that are probably going to be really hard pressed to find a job today on the way to work today in Fort Lauderdale at Commercial and Federal Highway. There was a guy that was laying in the street. His legs were in the crosswalk and his stomach was right there on the sidewalk. And me and a truck coming up, we both stopped at the same time.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
We were both saying the same thing. We both turned on our blinkers, got out, went to talk to the guy wondering, was he hit? What's going on? He rolls over and starts just yelling incomprehensible stuff. Didn't have any weapons, said anything. And I'm just like, this is just a troubled person. So the truck guy called 911 and said, look, there's a guy here.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
We want to get him out of the street, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't see that as the norm. And I would say this person on drugs is probably way out there. Can they really get back to them?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And I saw that argument. Some people say there wasn't enough. of American engineering graduates. Now, why wouldn't there be enough American engineering graduates? Well, why can't they get into top schools? Huh, interesting. Well, why can't they get into top schools? Well, let's look back to the Department of Justice, DOJ. That's our government, folks.

That was under Biden, folks, when after Yale University, after a massive lawsuit was filed by a group of Asian families who said, we've been discriminated against for admissions in favor of other people of many colors. And they were upset. And the Department of Justice looked at it and said, wait a minute.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Do you know where they're going? They are moving out. They are looking for refuge in other smaller cities and coming south. That is a fact of what's going on. But we need to move on. But right now the stats, you know, lie a lot about it. But I'd love to see HUD stats on chronic homelessness to find out if my guess about— I just want more data on this. Yes, exactly.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So do I. So is my guess about 20-25% correct?
PBD Podcast

Which wasn't fake news.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And the Asian suit had tons of facts and figures and some discovery, discovery things that they had found. So there is Department of Justice looks into it and goes, huh. and went after Yale. So the U.S. Department of Justice filed a suit against Yale admissions, and all the discoveries showed absolutely not opinion here.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
They were discriminating against whites and Asians that were American citizens in favor of people of many colors, particularly foreigners that maybe didn't have the same scores as some of these whites and Asians in the United States because the foreign people most often were paying full boat.

They weren't getting financial aid because they were wealthy people from around the world. So guess what? If you don't give them financial aid, what gets bigger? Your endowment. Because you don't have to give financial aid or small scholarships based on merit. So you see how that ecosystem works? So the... The schools discriminating against. So now what does that mean?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Well, now there's a shortage of U.S. citizen and not just white, white and Asian engineers, because it wasn't just happening in Yale. It's happened in other places. So the supply is down because schools have been discriminating against U.S. citizen. So now the supply is down. That is a fact, absolute fact, including and discovery brought by U.S. Department of Justice.

Now, then you go into part two. OK, well, that doesn't mean that H-1Bs are innocent. They're not. I looked at it up, and H-1Bs, they do underpay often. They do lock up a person with their sponsor, so it's very hard to change jobs.

Let's say you get an H-1B, Vinny, and you do a really good job for two years, and you're having lunch at a place, and a recruiter talks to you and says, hey, why don't you come work over here? And you say, well, I really can't. I got the H-1B, and it's really complicated to change jobs with a sponsor. I'm kind of locked in. It's hard to change jobs.

These guys, not only, to Pat's point, he's exactly correct, not only have they had their 20-year rung like a TV show tends to have and a host tends to have, they are aging out of the age that an 18...

And he did an interview with Obama that was okay. Then he was very critical and very cynical, and he got really bitter and angry. Yeah, that's what Kimmel feels like. And so guess what? Guess what? It's normal. We're seeing history repeat itself in the natural life cycle of these celebrities who are all aging out of the demo. It's time to go.

And I don't want to make any fuss because I don't want my sponsor to decide maybe they don't need me because if they lay me off with rejection and forth, I only have days. Otherwise, I have to leave the country because I no longer have a visa. So it does get abused. And there's this whole lottery with it that some people say, wink, wink, is subject to lobbying.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And who would be paying big lobbying into the liberal government? Oh. Big tech. So could one of the things they want be, you know, have the lottery point more toward me? So the H-1Bs do get used, you know, in a way that's kind of abusive. That's my second point. And then my third point is that...
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It is truly bad if the companies are using them with ill intent and they're not taking available American workers. But I think the schools are guilty. I think some companies are guilty for abuse of the program. I think the schools are guilty for not giving us more Americans with engineering degrees.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And I think a lot of people are third point are missing the point that there has been a tremendous amount of people who were immigrants to this country that have built amazing new businesses. And so you can't just say, oh, it's a bunch of cheap labor getting jobs. No, that's not true. People like Elon Musk have built things. So I think there's a lot of reform that's needed.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Well, we've been talking about this. Remember, a year ago, we... said that the one that the credit cards had gone way down with stimulus checks and a lack of spending because you couldn't go outside. You weren't going outside. You weren't traveling. You weren't going to restaurants.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So discretionary spending on those sorts of things, travel, amusement parks, movies, outdoor leisure, and going out to eat were off. So people weren't spending on that. And they got stimulus checks. Remember, the credit card balance went down to like 500 billion, I think it was. But then all of a sudden, all of a sudden, it was time to go back out and play. And what did we do?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
We ran those credit cards up. And it was earlier this year that we covered on this podcast when the mainstream media wouldn't talk about it because they didn't want to say anything embarrassing to the Biden administration where credit cards went to a trillion dollars. And we called it.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And we said, you know, in election year, if this inflation doesn't get under control, if it doesn't get down to 2%, like Jerome Powell, by the way, 2% inflation is still inflation. It's not zero. It just means it gets back down to a more, you know, a much lower rate per year. So what's been happening? People have been feeling kind of good. They've been going out. They've been doing things.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But the cost of stuff is still up. And we're still seeing about restaurants. Closing. Why? And we're seeing about McDonald's struggling and did the dollar menu. TGI Fridays. Yeah, TGI Fridays is closed. So guess what? TGI Fridays lives in the middle. Fast casual, they call it, like Applebee's, TGI Fridays, Chili's, things like that where you go in and you sit down and bankrupt.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So what we've got right now, however, the bank stocks seem to be okay. Really? Why would the bank stocks be OK? Do you know how much interest Americans paid over the last 12 months on credit cards? One hundred and seventy billion dollars in interest at an excess of 25 percent. That's the interest rate on credit cards.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
They pay in the last 12 months and it's going down, which means this is the opportunity. And one of the big areas you've got to get the cost down for people is on energy. You bring cost of gas down, you can actually anti-inflate gasoline and energy and heating oil. And also, those costs come out of getting all those goods shipped to your grocery store.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Maybe we'll see a little bit of ebbing in price at the grocery store. But right now, the U.S. consumer, the bottom third of the U.S. consumers are in a tougher place than they were at the beginning of COVID. They actually got savings relief during COVID.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It's very important what you just said. So if you go here...
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
No, we're the year before 2010. Okay, I got you.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But those are my three points.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So, and by the way, let's look at the impact. The world is starving. I've got to grow corn. How long does it take to grow corn? That's what you would look into, right? How long does it take to grow wheat so you can ship bulk? Well, guess what? Trump will be inaugurated on January 20th. Then they won't clear all those cabinet picks for another four or five weeks.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Now the cabinet picks, especially Treasury and Commerce, are in place. Then they put their programs out. Congress has got to debate it. You're probably talking the middle of Q2. Getting into May, June before, you know what I mean, Pat? Before the corn grows, meaning all of the programs from the new cabinet can start having a dramatic impact on the U.S. worker.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So what we're seeing here, this is a leading indicator of more pain to come on credit card delinquencies. and we are about to find out how much did they spend. If you hear that there's a lot of spending in Q4, then it's there. And by the way, guess what we've left out here? We were screaming about it and talking about it because it gets left out of the stats. What is it? Four letters.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Begins with a B. Remember? Bingo! BNPL is sitting below the water like a bigger iceberg with consumers having a lot of BNPL on top of the credit card stuff. I think 25 is going to be our spike, but I think Trump's going to put a lot of things in place with his cabinet to get after it.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It was the worst of times. It was the worst of times. It was a season of discontent.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Well, first thing, I'd like to speak to LeBron James. LeBron James, you said there's a lot of trays being shot, right? There's a lot of threes being shot. Well, you had 7.7 million views on Christmas. The NFL averaged 24.2 million. That's 3.1 million. The NFL shot a three on you, dude, on Christmas Day. Open the package and weep. But I'll tell you what's going on. The NFL is a better product.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And if you put a better product on and there's more demand for the product, who's demanding it? Netflix. They bid for a couple games on Christmas. Amazon bid for games. You know, YouTube TV, which is not doing particularly well, but they paid for the NFL Sunday ticket. So the NFL is doing a very good job of putting their product. It's on Monday. Remember, it was just Monday night football.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Then it became Sunday night football. Then it became Thursday night football. Now we even have some games dropping in on Saturdays as college football has kind of gone into its bowl season and they're not all day every moment. college football games. The NFL is a better product. The networks are bidding for it.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And thanks to a lot of issues that I won't get into because we've covered it on this podcast. The NBA just had a very good Christmas compared to past Christmases, but they are a triple behind the NFL.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
One sentence after that. And because you did, the NBA Players Association agreed with the league that you would get contracts paid during COVID. So Ron DeSantis got you paid during COVID. That's right.

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Well, there's a couple things going on. So Deep Seat comes out and says, hey, you know, we'll do this free and near free and take a look at this. And, oh, because you had the sanctions against the advanced chips, we were able to do this in other ways and innovate.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Similar to the way when the Saudis pushed the price of oil down to $35 and it really squeezed the Canadian oil sands and North Dakota shale because they couldn't extract out of the ground for $34. And guess what happened? Three years of innovation. Three years of innovation in oil exploration, and we suddenly in North Dakota had a sub-$40 extraction.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So when the price went back up on oil, suddenly we were even more competitive than we were, and that cycle caused us to be better. So they're saying, well, the same thing happened to us. You gave us sanctions on chips and said that the advanced chips we couldn't use, and there were these controls – on the quantity of the number of chips that we could have, but we just innovated.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
We innovated, just like the oil industry did, and now we've got something that's faster in there. That's the story. Well, the storyline, there's people saying all that Elon Musk said, I don't know about that, but then Scale AI CEO Alexander Wang, right? Alexander Wang? Brilliant guy, yeah. Yep. He said, I'm not buying it.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I am hearing that they're using NVIDIA H100s, and they're using a lot of them, and they're using more than they should. But two things can be true. They can be innovating quickly to make a product, and they could be cheating and using more of the advanced chips.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So the moral of the story is, do we have now an AI race, similar to the way the auto industry found itself behind Japan, and now we have to go catch up? And the U.S. has got to drive.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So the point one, Roe, you said give startups access to it. Well, they have access to it now. What do you mean by access when you said point one?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Well, is Trump empowering the what's happening? He's not that money's not coming from government. And there's been people say, oh, they only have about 10 billion of it that they don't have what they say. And then the Saudis are like, hang on, I got my checkbook. So. Trump appears to be facilitating and encouraging the same way the auto industry and the oil industry was encouraged by.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Are you suggesting that the government take that $500 billion?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Back to it. Don't startups have access to it now?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
They... So what you're saying is that what the market is doing, what Google building tremendous data centers and building everything with it and trying to get permits for small nukes, we can talk about nukes later. You're saying that's insufficient, that the market is building it fast as it can to make a buck and to provide the compute power out there. You're saying no.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Got it. So your argument is on open source. Part of AI should be open source, and the open source should have an open license to the independents.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I don't know if you force that.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Yeah, I don't know if the government should be a licensing agency. The USPTO provides for the protection and all the things that you do, but should the government be sort of an industry player?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I agree. And how the customer ends up paying a high price and ultimately loses.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I don't think the government should be there. Look, World War II, when the government needed planes, it went out and said, I need a lighter, faster plane. And independent government invented the P-38 Lightning and other things that were brought to bear.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Ford Motor Company suspended manufacturing, started building bombers and innovating and giving the government a more competitive product that it needed to go, in this case, fight a war.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And so I don't see how the government gets involved and actually facilitates in this.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Yeah, you know, there's so many positions that you take that seem reasonable. You know, you're talking about parents should have a say in school. Okay, that's nice to say. Where are you backing it up, and what legislation do you support or not support? And you make comments about the economy. You make comments about Citizens United, a lot of things. And then...
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You talk about defending not America. I've been sitting here listening, and I've been counting. And you've defended the party. We need the party. The party needs to do this. The DNC needs to do this. It's like, what flag are you saluting? It's like, and you're saying, a new generation is coming up. Your generation is here now.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
It's like all the things you're talking about, you sound like an independent, and then you take this position. It's like Don Quixote attacking the windmills to go back and fix the DNC for all of its flaws that I credit you for openly pointing out those flaws. But you seem like more of an independent. But then there's a little asterisk at the end that you don't support the Lake and Riley Act.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And you make some some comments that are on that progressive line. It's like you've got an opportunity here. I think you've got a big opportunity. And my question is, do you owe too much to Obama who put you on that commerce position? Do you owe too much to Pelosi? Do you owe too much to the DNC that you can't walk like a great Californian once walked and said, I can't take this anymore.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And I'm I'm. I'm going to be more independent and I'm going to be conservative and be Republican. And at California, there's Ronald Reagan. It's not like there's no precedent for someone that has your passion, your intellect, and your focus on some of these things.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540

Everybody watch that. Look at the methodical way that it's taking place. They're not sweeping through malls saying, you, you, and you, and putting you in the zip-tie handcuffs. They're going place to place, starting with what did Tom Holman say? We're going to start with the worst that we know that have record. And they're doing it. And they're doing it methodically. And they're doing it humanely.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So everybody that wants to say all these things and spin it and pre-spin it and come with fear, bring me the facts. Just bring me the facts. You know, words talk and emotions talk, but numbers scream. And the numbers that's on that rap sheet are significant. And take a look at that. That's being done in a methodical, humane way.

Well, first I go to Susie. She's doing her job and she's doing a really good job. You take a look at what usually happens when people take a secretary position. You'd be the secretary of something. You serve for roughly two and a half years, and then you leave. You get your book deal or a news show position. A lot of the high-end people hang there.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Or you go right over to K Street, and you become a lobby for somebody. And so there's usually this revolving door. And so there's usually people who are not necessarily fully aligned with the president and stand behind him. In this case, we have an operator who's operating like a CEO and he's got a chief of staff. And that is Susie. And he's saying, hey, look.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You know, we're going to have a meeting here. We're going to criticize it. You know, I don't want you to have second meetings with the VP of marketing and F things up before the meeting. That happens in companies. It's just, look, if you got something to say, say it in the meeting. So she's saying these things on social media.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So I think they're trying to bring order to what is typically a very disorderly situation, which is operating a cabinet and In a day and age where social media is out there and people are already thinking about two steps ahead, what they're doing, and have a tough time being great number twos. That's what I think is going on with Suzy.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
With Trump, I think he gave a very honest, straightforward answer. He says, hey. He hates one of the guys in the deal. You know, what do you want me to do about it? I'm going to go get it done because Lincoln, we can go back and look at Abraham Lincoln about how he got rivals to cooperate. And I think that's what you're seeing here at Trump. And I think you're seeing leadership from him.

I just met you, but I want to call on something there. Congress doesn't have a clue about technology, but they know what they're doing when they pull Facebook in and they talk about Cambridge Analytics. And they know what they're doing when they start talking about TikTok bans. And they know what they're doing when they put Google in there and the stocks move based on those hearings.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So Congress may not know much about technology, a point I think we would both agree on. Actually, I agree with you. You just said that's your position. But I'll tell you, they know exactly what they're doing when they do hearings and stock is moving.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540

And 60% of what they make in Tuscaloosa, Alabama is exported around the world with 16,000 American jobs.

So guess what? The tariffs are working. And somebody like Mercedes is like, well, I've been here forever. This really doesn't bother me because I've been employing American workers and I'm exporting Mercedes around the world. And so what Rolls-Royce is doing is is great.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
And that's the proper response to say, look, our customers over in the U.S., why don't we make our stuff there and everything else? The tariffs are working and look at the jobs that are coming and look at how the products are reacting. And by the way, guess what? If that BMW 3 Series is $10,000 more expensive, guess what?

Hyundai, and you saw yesterday, announced as part of this, he said, we had a conversation that started in 2019 with Trump. And we wanted to bring a steel plant to Louisiana and then use the steel there to make cars and put some Hyundai auto auto factories here in 2019. It didn't happen. And it's 2025.

By the way, do you know how long it would take at the long-term capital gains rate? They would have to earn as citizens to get $5 billion to the IRS. How much? It's 20% capital gains.

I have thoughts. Here's the thought I have. There are eight public universities in Maine. Vinny, it's time for fun with math. Okay. Jeez, Vinny, get excited, buddy. How many dollars are being sent to Maine? $250 million. Okay. Let's say Maine keeps $10 million just as an administration fee. All right, so $240 million. $240 million. What's $240 divided by 8?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
It's easy. It's 30. So why is the United States federal government sending 30 million per university to the University of Maine if those businesses, it's a business, can't sustain themselves? I don't want the federal government. First of all, this shows that what Trump is doing has teeth. And he's getting states to move off dumb policies and off previous positions.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
And just like he said there, yeah, you'll see it in court. Oh, yeah, that'd be fine. That'd be an easy one. And guess what? It didn't even go to court. It just went it just went to his pen. OK, 250 out like this. But the greater question for me is, is like, OK, now the federal government gives the funding back. I'm like, wait a minute. Wait a minute.

I thought we were shutting down Department of Education. And I'd like to see Doge take a look at why do eight universities in Maine need an average of $30 million each to operate?

You think she will be apologizing? No.

No. First of all, I love what you did there. Vinny, I love what you did there because you're pointing something out. Because there is something to be pointed out.

I'm not worried about her. I'm talking about a congressman. I'm talking about governors. Let's go to Hillary Clinton and the deplorables. I don't confirm that either. If there's voter suppression, it should be on the other side. There's been plenty said about that, that the conservatives are the enemies, that the conservatives are backwater, that the conservatives shouldn't even be voting.

There's a lot of it that goes on the back side. I fully agree that that is a horrible rhetoric. You can't just attack one side on Vinny and say, oh, Vinny, be careful about saying enemy, enemy.

Well, I think, number one, it appears that everybody's pointing to Mike Waltz and that Mike Waltz apparently sent a text out and it included a journalist.

That's not what the journalist does.

Most accounts that we're hearing, it was fairly effective on its targets. But it is, you know, that's a careless thing.

You make a very good point. Thanks, Tom. I'm not adding on here. I'm just going to let it go. But when you go, the first thing that happens to a congressman when they become a senator is they change their view on campaign finance reform. Bingo. Because they need billionaire dollars now.

It was the wrong guy to be aiming at. I think this guy's really capable. He was an early confirmation, and he's really strong in position. Gorka's on his team. So that's what I think there. The other thing is it's not unusual. How many media people do you have on your phone? I am on my phone.

Tom, how important is this? Excuse me? How important is this? This is really important because I think what he's saying when he says the points of reference, I think what he's saying is basically LOI. Here's a letter of intent. It's not a contract, but it's a letter of intent. And inside the letter of intent says, okay, these are the five things. that we're going to work through.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
So basically, that's a big deal. To say that we've... Because, you know, they get together, they stand in front of the flags, and they say, boy, what a productive day. Nice to see you. Nice to see you as well. Do you like the gift? I love the gift. Thank you very much. Love the beef jerky. Thank you so much. And thank you very much for the curry.

And, you know, they do that, and it's kind of just a handshake and back and forth. This seemed, and you heard the people applauding, very specific. I talked to the prime minister. We've got points of reference. So to me, it's like an LOI that says, hey, guys, we're around first base, and we know exactly what we're going to be talking about, and we know exactly where we're going to go.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And when trade deals enter negotiation phases, usually what they do is they mutually pull the heat off each other. Like when two countries are at war, they say, we're going to have a ceasefire, and our guys and your guys are going to meet in Geneva, Switzerland, and we're going to talk about it. You know what I'm talking about? They have a little ceasefire.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
That's how usually international deals happen. So likewise, they usually turn down the heat on it. I think the market is probably going to like this today because the poor stock market is bouncing like a yo-yo on sentiment.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Yeah, well, and I'll tell you, the India thing, we talk about sentiment. The market opened one minute ago. It's 931, right? So S&P 500 up 55. Dow up 400. NASDAQ up 180, excuse me, 182. Just moving right here live. So it's an early bounce. The day is young. There's a lot of things that happen in the market. But the market is jumping a bit on sentiment.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And you've got to believe that hearing about India is part of this because it calms the market. The market just wants to know everything's going to be okay and things are going to come down a little bit. And I think that... You know, the volatility that's out there right now, we have the volatility of words. What do you mean? Well, the volatility of words. Is that the end of the sentence?
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Yeah, the volatility of words that go back and forth that causes the market to get a little concerned. And then, you know, people are making research. And Wall Street Journal today, as Adam pointed out, saying, hey, this could be the worst April since the Great Depression. That's a fair headline based on historical facts. But those words make the market nervous because...
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
But trade deals are things that now go the other way and will calm the market. But we need more days like this morning.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
So there's the what and there's the how. Here's the what. Rare earth minerals are important. Lithium, cobalt, things like that. They're in your phone, they're in the batteries for EVs, they're in batteries on your phone as a matter of fact. And they are critically important and they're called rare earth minerals because they're very rare. They're only in certain areas around the world.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Just like gold is only in certain areas around the world, oil is only in certain areas around the world, so are these. That's the what. We need that to keep driving a technologically advanced economy, and we need lots of that. We need a supply of that. And when we were dependent on the Middle East for oil in the 70s and early 80s, that was bad. That's why drill, baby, drill, because we have oil.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
We have it. Well, for rare earth minerals, it's not dig, baby, dig, because we don't have them everywhere. And so we need partners. And recently, China has said that as part of this trade war, that they are embargoing us and saying you don't get the rare earth minerals. This is exactly what Trump feared. And that's why before everyone understood the how,
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Why Trump was there at the Oval Office back with Vance and Zelensky when that whole thing happened, you know, going at each other there. And he then refused to sign the minerals deal because Trump said, I got a great idea. I'll give you a little discount on what you owe me back. but then you can pay me in rare earth minerals that I need for my economy.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
The art of the deal, that was good, and that slipped. Well, now we need it even more, and it appears, there's no word of whether this was in there previously, but it appears that what's on the table now, and they call this a memorandum of understanding, MOU, that we're going to reduce what you owe from 300 to 100, and you're going to pay with the rare earth minerals.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
If we get it done, this is a good thing for the U.S. economy to get access to the rare earth minerals.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I think he knows it a lot, and I think he's a player, and I don't think he really cares about his country. I think there's a lot of things going on.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I think he wants more. I don't think he wants a discount. I think he wants cash, because that's always what he comes looking for. And they take the cash, they skim it, then they send some of it to, ironically, back to U.S. companies, and they buy arms and stuff. And... I think he wants cash. I think that's what it is. That's why he's manipulating it.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I think he also looks over his shoulder and saying, yeah, and I noticed you don't have a deal with Greenland yet. You only have this negotiated detente with Greenland where Greenland is slow rolling China. Because remember, China is trying to get a deal with Greenland to dig rare earth in Greenland.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
So in addition to their own rare earth and to have their rare earth, they're trying to – China's trying to play the Monopoly game and get all the yellows because a set of yellows is rare earth minerals, which means they control any technology economies because they control that supply. That's what's going on. And Greenland, you know, would be a big help.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And haven't heard words about Greenland recently because we've been trying to get that deal done. So I think Zelensky knows. I think he wants cash. He always wants a little more, always wants a little more, always wants a little more.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And there are two words that would that the rest of the world would probably flip out at. But there's two words that Trump could utter to Putin to help move that forward. Crimea and Dornbus. And say, tell you what. We draw the new line, Crimea, Donbass. We call off the war. We do all this. Do you see what I mean? And I think – remember, Russia feels that that is historically theirs.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
They feel that the creation of Ukraine stepped on their historical territory, and they've been upset about it for decades. as long as Ukraine has been separate. And so I think that's what Putin also has his desires, and it's territory and what he says is legitimate Russian historical soil.

Powell says, I don't see the facts that would lead me to cut the rate. And I know you don't like that, but I don't see the facts. Inflation is out of control. People aren't being laid off. So I'm not going to cut the rate.

So, Vinny, what do you know about it? What's going on?
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Yeah, and I think the original topic here, the White House pushing lab leak, the site, and putting facts and history and items and then criticizing the Biden administration, criticizing the response. And I think the lab leak the White House has put out, the White House is not kicking the can down the road. Now they've published, this is our point of view.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And now the question is, will there ever be, you know, investigations, hearings or prosecution? Well, the guy at the middle of it has got a pardon. So what do you do with that guy?

So do you know how many times? You know, you can't go to the store as a House representative or a senator or anybody. You can't go out. You can't go to dinner. You can't go places. We see it.

White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
She said, I did 12 town halls last year. I'm doing town halls this year. Why don't you go to the last year or this year? So I agree that she was a little maybe quick on the trigger. But how many times do you think – Folks are getting in her face. And so they end up with a naturally quick trigger. Look at look at the way athletes evolve as they get fame.

There are those that know how to deal with it and they have a handler get you in and out of restaurants. And they have those sometimes gets a little good. You know, they get a little chippy with people because, you know, you drop the ball, you don't know this. And in this case.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Go for it, Tom. So starting, we have to remember this started. This didn't start with Trump. This started with, you know, Jewish students on campus not being protected and then a president sitting in front of Congress admitting By saying, oh, I'm not answering that question, that's not what we've done, but admitting it. And then she suffers a consequence when she goes back because he's right.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And now what they're saying is saying, look... You seem to say you're a private institution when that works for you. And now you're upset at me. This is public money. This money that they're getting from the U.S. government for research or whatever they're doing at the university started with the taxpayers, started with you. You gave $4 to Harvard last year, Vinny. You just don't know it, right?
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I mean, you take a look at the hundreds of millions of dollars that went there.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Yes, you did. I did? In your taxes.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
That's not cool.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I'm not happy about it.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
There you go. And so Harvard likes to say, oh, we're private. Leave us alone. We're private. And then the government is saying, OK, well, then you go live your private life. I'll just turn off this valve and I'm not going to send you this money. And they're like, wait a minute. Right. It reminds me, you know, of, you know, a you know, you can't live in two worlds.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And Harvard's trying to live in two worlds right now. And they are getting called out. But what they're getting called out is the onions getting peeled back. You had you. You had the Yale case where Yale got sued by Asian students saying we're being discriminated against. And when you line up the applications and our credentials and our test scores, numbers, why aren't we getting admitted?
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Well, because we're doing some other things. Yeah, you were. And then Yale ended up in front of the Justice Department under Biden. Harvard's heading for the same place. And Harvard is absolutely in the wrong here. And... Now you've got, I love Linda McMahon. Okay, well, then there's no problem telling us all about your sources of foreign funding and where you're getting it, but you're private.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
They do not want that. They don't want to talk about that. And then he's saying, you know, I have filed Section 117 reports for decades. Okay, we're not asking if you filed Section 117 reports for decades. We're asking if you can identify all the sources on all sources section 117 reports, or maybe did you not file all of the reports you're supposed to? Hmm.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Well, Business Insider is covering J.P. Morgan, and J.P. Morgan had a big letter that came out a week and a half ago. And one of the things that people noted in there is they seem to be having or trying to have like a calming effect on investors. Like they're saying, hey, we think the tax rate will be 10 to 20 percent of some of these investors.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Well, from a parenting perspective, this is a miracle because I think as Pat, myself, anybody that has multiple children, getting the same story from two children at the same time is rare.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
tariffs compared to two percent which is what we estimated pre-liberation day so what they're trying to say vinnie is hey what we said before liberation day when the markets are going crazy and that was april 2nd hey it's happening it's happening about that way so they're trying to have a calming effect And then what they're mentioning to people is, you know, structured notes.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
When I see this, you know what I think, Vinny? That's not gay at all, Vinny.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
It's totally masculine. I get it.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I bet you he needs it. Whenever you see a university does a study, somebody paid for the study. Yeah, for sure. Right, like this public money. So who would pay for this? A bar? Yeah, it's the London Association of Pubs. Probably paid Oxford for this.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
You've got to go twice a week. A conclusion of our study is two nights a week, you need to be at the pub. And drink. Pub owners rejoice at results of new studies.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And I won't go into deep detail. Adam could probably talk about it, too. But a structured note is basically an investment vehicle that allows you a little bit of downside protection and a little bit of upside protection. And you get a little coupon in there.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
So what they're saying is there are other investment products that are designed for times when the markets and the financial instruments are volatile. And I felt like, Pat, that what Business Insider was covering, but they missed the headline. I think they blew the headline. It would be J.P. Morgan recommends calm and consider alternative investments as the tariff situation trade war plays out.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Well, there you go. It's simple. It's choice. It's freedom of choice. And if it's a constrictive environment full of regulations and taxations in Georgia or New Mexico or any of those other states or England, it says, hey, you know what? If you want to film movies here, we got a special tax rebate for you because we know you provide a lot of temporary employment and project-based employment.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
It's kind of seasonal for your movie. And we'd love to have you here. You know, have at it. And we got a lot of wonderful scenery here in London to go film wherever you want to be. And then there you have it.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
No, it's just like the states. They're trying to export these actors to other countries. Exactly. This is an industry saying exactly what individuals have been saying, like what I said and what Pat said when we left California and went to Texas. And then we went from Texas to here. We weren't upset with Texas. There's just tremendous opportunity down here.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And we had some businesses that were getting built. So... That's it.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And we think it's going to land 10 to 20 percent tax on certain goods, which is what we said before Liberation Day. And I think they missed the headlines. I think that's what J.P. Morgan is. That's exactly what they're saying here. And oh, by the way, call J.P. Morgan because we can help you buy some of these things. Operators are standing by.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Vinny, the Olympics is about competition.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
How many bidders was L.A. competing against in the final round to get the Olympics for 2028? Summer Olympics. Two. Zero. Because the others had backed out. The others that were in there, I think it was Budapest, Hamburg. And Rome. They backed out. And Paris already had 24 locked up against the competition, one of which was L.A., and then nobody wanted it. You know why?
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Because if you go take a look at when the Olympics were in Greece and you go back and take a look at what all those things look like, they spent billions of dollars. They built all these facilities. The facilities are now rotting. These little states, oh, we're going to bring all this stuff here. London, London, before and after the Olympics. You ready for this?
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Tourism dropped the year, and the hotels complained about it before and after. You know why? Because the hotels did all these refurbishments and upgrades getting ready for the Olympics and all the people that would be there for the Olympics. And then they raised their room rates to help cover some of the improvements they made to their hotels. And then people didn't come to London.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
So London tourism, by the numbers, was down before and after the Olympics. Having the Olympics usually costs a ton of money, and you don't get the benefit to the local businesses or local infrastructure. And the last point that Pat made in there, when L.A. – won the bid in the, please take it, we'll give you about a billion dollars, which is what the IOC said. Please take it. Just say yes.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
We'll give you about a billion dollars. And guess what? They committed to all these transportation projects and let that 28, 10 out of 28 people are probably going to be finished. The other, transportation. Wait, you have terrible traffic. Don't worry, we have 28 projects we're going to do here. Well, right now, the original budget was $5.3 billion.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
The loss of sponsorship and what they think that the media is going to be, they believe they're sitting right now at about $4 billion. With tickets and everything. Losses. And, and, and, ready for this? Here it comes. Here it comes. The current budget estimated for everything they need is $6.9 billion. So they're estimating right now that it's probably $2.5 billion gap they have right now.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Oh, man. And lastly, the Dems, including Karen Bass, who have now pulled their comments back to to sit with Gavin Newsom. They were concerned about police militarization. You know what that means? The homeless and everything else, they have to clean up the city because the entire world will be there with their cell phones taking pictures of L.A. and they want it to look good.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Do you remember what the mayor of San Francisco did when he had the International Council of Mayors? Willie Brown shipped out all the homeless to Sacramento and they were hitchhiking coming back in, but he cleaned up the city by artificially shipping people out and they got a lot of heat for it. So there's people saying, we're worried about police militarization. Wait, why?
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Because they know it's a hellhole, and they know the cops have to crack down on homelessness. They've got to ship homeless, and they've got to crack down on things so it'll look good and be nice for the 14 days of the 38th Summer Olympiad or whatever it is. And you now have organizations in L.A., as reported by the Daily News, that are saying –
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
You're talking about tearing down homes for some of these facilities called eminent domain. This is this is a I'll say it. This is a shit show. And it was now member Eric Garcetti led the charge and Trump supported and said, hey, would be nice to have it in L.A., Trump's just given support with his voice. He's not the guy Eric Garcetti said, we have a plan, we're going to do all this.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And now the guy standing there now, well, we're rebuilding L.A. anyway because of all these fires. We'll just finish the rebuild and we'll call it the rebuilding year, the summer of rebuild. And so Newsom deserves all the heat he's getting because all their cities refuse the Olympics because what you end up afterwards is none of the benefits you thought you'd get.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I want to know what's going to happen. You know what? By the way, There are Democrats upset at Newsom because they are going to Washington trying to get grants from our tax money for the Olympic shortfall the same week that Gavin Newsom says, I'm suing the president. It was the same week.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
It is terrifying.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
No, I think you echoed it. You know, it's a one-way street. You can't come here and offer to teach us we want to go there and look at what they've organized. They get elected into government, and now they're favoring themselves of free accommodation and supporting this, and look at the generation they're creating. The average was six kids. There you go. You know what? Count 18 years.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Count 18 years from right now, and it's over. There is a – if you look at tourism books and things like that, they call it Londonistan because there's so many – the population of Muslims there is so great. And that's it. And it's a generation of children and generational –
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
change just natural these people are going to grow old and die and then these people have had one kid these people have had six so what does that population look like 18 years from now it's over
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Absolutely. He's one of only four guys that's won the Grand Slam of the four majors.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Well, I have a lot of respect for the Black Knight. That was Gary Player's nickname. And... He's clearly white, Tom. No, no, no. But you see the logo on his shirt? No. That's his brand.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
They called him the Black Knight.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
That was his... He wore black on the golf course. That's what they called him. Okay? And... I think he's right because if you look when Tiger came up and he had a couple major injuries, one, he started training and trained with the Navy SEALs, and he went to an intensive Navy SEAL training, and unfortunately— he suffered a big-time knee injury and concealed it.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And so Tiger got distracted and wanted to go train with the Seals, A. And, B, he did move from his coaches, and there were chapters of his life where – The coach he had, he was at kind of a plateau. And he had a falling out with the first coach. This coach had a big ego and was sort of trading on Tiger. And Tiger didn't like that. I don't blame him.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
You know, it's like you have a – people understand. I don't need to make metaphors, right? People know who the success is, and then other people are like trading on that success, kind of chasing you around like Remora is the way they chase sharks. And I believe Tiger would have had far more majors if he had stayed. He had such insane talent.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And if he had stuck with that thread and not been distracted and got hurt, he got really hurt at a Navy SEAL training. And if he had not done that. I think things would have been fine because people have talked about the car accident.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
I process it very simply. I think he should have stuck with the coaches that were proven. And sometimes it's like the latest coach and you think, okay, I'm going to work with this. I'm going to work with that. And I agree with Gary Player. I don't think some of those later coaches were, I mean, I look now, you can look at some of those later coaches now and see who they're coaching.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
And I think it speaks for itself now. It's like, oh, okay, I get it. And I think moving to these other coaches, I don't think it helped him. I agree with Gary on that. I also agreed with Phil Mickelson because Nike was the sponsor. Nike got into golf equipment and had Tiger using their equipment.
PBD Podcast
White House COVID Bombshell & Nancy Mace's Daisy Dukes Fight | PBD Podcast | Ep. 579
Tiger was winning and using equipment that was inferior to what the other top five players in the world were using at the time. The Nike equipment was inferior and he was winning.

Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And this isn't, mind you, these aren't people that were burning stuff or doing whatever. These are 1,500, and he mentioned this in his speech, a 78-year-old grandmother who was just standing there taking pictures of the Capitol. She gets to go home now to her family. I think that's one of the best things that we're going to get into all the parties because people are like, how dare you?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And guess what? He pardoned Michael Byrd, the guy, the only deaf, was Michael Byrd shooting Ashley Babbitt and, in my opinion, murdering her. That was the only death.

It's an admission of guilt, Tom, is exactly what it is. But you know what, guys? I blame Donald Trump. I blame Donald Trump. He showed his hand way too early, said everything that he was going to do, and this is what they did, Tom.

They were all he's not making any decisions, which I think it's all BS, but let's think about it shift doesn't have a pardon Alejandro Mayorkas doesn't have a pardon I think now he should be going after those people that made the decisions because one of the worst ones and Pat you guys saw this I tweeted it Yesterday was dr Mr. Fauci, whatever you want to call him.

Drone manufacturing company that owns 72.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
I think that's one of the most spit in the face. I made the comparison to him, to that guy, Tom. You actually told me his name. Who was that? Hitler's Nazi scientist, Joseph Mengele. He experimented on children with all that stuff. Fauci experimented with HIV positive orphans with experimental drugs causing side effects. He did all these experiments on kids, vaccinating all these freaking children.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Everything that he did, everything that Fauci did to give him, and mind you, he was under Trump. He was under what, seven, I believe, Rob, administrations or presidencies. That is one of those, in my opinion, those deep state actors that main goal was to destroy this country.

I think that's one of the biggest... Spits in the face. And that's why when I hear people say, oh, you think it's cool that he pardoned January 6th people that yelled and hit a cop? I don't give a shit. Sorry for my language. I want all of them out of jail.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
If Dr. Fauci, to me, who has crimes against humanity, okay, is going to walk free for the rest of his life and get Secret Service protection that I'm paying for, to hell with that. I wanted everybody from January 6th out. That's the biggest problem that I have is that guy.

Stopping the crime before it happens called pre-crime because you got psychics that know that you're going to do the said crime.

And then the FAA deals with it, which I was like, OK, that that seemed to me more of a of a possibility. But then obviously we were here. We felt the cold. But I think, you know, God works in mysterious ways. And I think the weather was one thing. But I think because I did see a convoy with Donald Trump coming somewhere, getting on Air Force One for the first time.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
But me personally, I'm not a fan of the preemptive pardon, Tom. I think the only time, other times, was Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon for Watergate scandal, and then George H.W. Bush pardoned related to the Iran...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Contra affair that I am anti pre I think you have to be set in front of court You have to have your day trial if you are either charged and then or convicted and you have to good point You're making I think so bad because I I'm for anybody for Trump or anybody I'm not a fan of it, but you know and I missed one point to PPD It was a general Milley.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
That's that's one of the main ones That's a real problem because for the audience that knows in 2020 I believe Rob October 2020 He called General Lee from China and said that we have no plans to attack. This is undermining our entire system. He called and told them, if we're going to attack, I'm going to call you ahead of time. You're letting technically our enemy know our freaking plans.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And the entire convoy had these weird I think it was you, Tom, that pointed out and robbed. These black things on top of the hoods, which what I found out were like deterrents for drones. So either way, Pat, it was not going to be easy.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
I mean, I hope, Tom, because we've heard this the last time he was in, I'm going to do this, I'm going to do this, but then he changed his mind. The real thing is, what happens to these institutions? What happens to the CIA? What happens to the FBI when we find out definitively, because we all have our opinions. Me and Rob talk about this all the time. I know me and you are...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Pretty much on the same page. I know Pat floats around there, Adam. I don't know. I don't think you're as far in as we are. But, I mean, trust for the government is the lowest it's ever been in the history of the country. Okay? So if that's a fact and we find out, in fact, the CIA, maybe the FBI, the mob, whoever, they all had a hand in murdering a sitting president. Okay? Murdering our president.

Then you have to question everything. Then all of a sudden you're like, wait a minute. 9-11. Who's to say you lose all faith in every single thing that your organization has touched? That means either you have to get rid of this organization or there has to be some type of civilian over. I don't know what has to happen, Tom, because it's over.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
If the CIA was involved and we have documentation, it's over.

i i i was just going to say that and just to remind people what he said was that american culture has started valuing mediocrity instead of excellence now i don't know about you guys americans don't like hearing that crap okay so i think that that that that to me played a big part i do like the alpha uh versus alpha as well time because if you think about it elon is good he could probably do this by himself with a team they'll probably put somebody else in there to run it i mean the idea is pretty

uh pretty obvious you know I mean Department of Government efficiency just we're going to be cutting um a lot of corners but you know it is kind of weird though Matt did you guys even really see Vivek this entire week that we've been here I haven't I saw him once Rob maybe I saw him walking at the inauguration but it is kind of you know obvious that once you're out of that little limelight I didn't hear him make a speech we were at the Capital One I saw everybody we saw Kash Patel we saw um everybody spoke except
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Ooh, good song. Everybody spoke except Vivek. So I kind of feel like, and going to your point, Tom, if there's a governorship or a Senate seat, that's, to me, that's more important than just an agency that they're starting from scratch.

Not that many.

Okay, well, first of all, there's a couple things. Me and Rob have conversations where we're like, dude, Mark Zuckerberg's an alien. The way that he drinks his water when he was in Congress, if you guys want to look at that on your own, this proves that he's a human. He's a man, all right?

Man, if he's taking TRT, I don't know. Listen, the guy's doing push-ups. He's beating the shit out of people. I don't know if he is because it looks like he broke his nose. He's wearing gel.

Him? If no, because that's when if I know it would never happen in a million years. If Jen was out, you would go, babe, you're good. And let her leave the house. This, by the way, we're not going to get a pop out.

Come out.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
So that's my point. When they left, he looked at that and Jeff Bezos goes, We're good. You're good. She's wearing a lingerie piece that looks like they got at Victoria's Secret. But going back to him, I think Zuckerberg, congratulations, bro. To me... You're not an alien anymore. Good job.

Yeah. The mics are cutting out. No, I'm good. I can hear you. Oh, okay. And what you're what you're mentioning, Pat, was guys, because the public didn't see it. But before Trump came out, before everybody, you know, the J.D. Vance and everybody showed up, the family got sat down first. The kids, you know, what's what's what's it?

extremely bright. It looks really bright because there's something in his eyes. Like, you know, like, he's going to carry that name. He's going to carry it well. And you nailed it. He's going to stumble, but I think we all do. Tom. Well, I think...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
For all the people out there, yeah, great point because if you're playing the Hitler, Nazi, whatever, just shut up. Just shut up. First of all, the guy's autistic. He has Asperger's. This guy has never been in the limelight. He's done interviews, which he's freaking amazing. He will put your lights out when he did it to that BBC reporter.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Like, I don't think... He never thought in a million years this guy would be... Remember the last rally he went to where he was jumping? He's so excited. I don't know if you guys have ever dealt with people that have Asperger's or they have these conditions, they have autism. I have family members that do. I have friends that do. They don't go in front of crowds. They don't do this type of stuff.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
The guy's genuinely excited. He's telling his heart is going out to them. He's in the moment. He's not sitting thinking about it. He's not planning it. So for people to try to do it, by the way, this story will be dead after tomorrow. Nobody gives a damn about it. This guy has bigger plans. He has bigger missions. Did it look bad?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Yeah, for people that were kind of looking to say, oh, hey, Hitler, which, I mean, how many more Hitler jokes and Charlie Kirk just walked by? Charlie, we love you. So, yeah, I think it's people that are searching and they're looking for something. And like they always say about the... There's no there there.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Yeah, because think about this. And just to give you guys a heads up, just to give you guys a heads up, to get to this area, guys, the fencing, the security, up to this point, anything could happen. So then there's a, when you get to the front, zero bags. So they just have a designated meaning. Those bags aren't checked.

If, God forbid, somebody wanted to put a device or a bomb inside of this, it would have been all hell at this. That's my only security. Rob, you can play that video. It's like a 10-second one.

He said they weren't rational. They were irrational.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Well, he's talking about the progression. And Excuse me. And so when you take a look at the – there's a couple laws out there. There's Moore's Law, and it's basically that the power of a semiconductor keeps doubling and that the power of the network keeps doubling. Well, when you look at that, what happens is you come to a logical end here, and all he's doing is saying, hey, guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Autonomous cars, five years, 50% of all miles driven will be autonomous. 90% of all miles driven in 10 years will be autonomous. That's just a natural progression of autonomous cars. They're more fuel efficient. You have all the reasons to do it. Will that mean that you can't have a sports car from the 60s in your garage? No, you still have that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
But we're talking about total miles driven and commute and everything. That's just extrapolation. Where the extrapolation gets a little scary for people is the question of similar. We have malware that gets wrapped in a bot and then sent off to cause havoc with networks and go steal people's ID and do things like that. Now you take that element. Now put that on robots. What if there's bad people?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
making robots. And the difference between bots and robots, robots are physical and they can do assembly and stuff, and bots are usually things that will operate on the internet.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And so it gets a little nerve-wracking when you go to the last one there to say, well, could a bad person have robots, physical robots, doing bad things the same way bad people are using malware and bots right now to run around the internet and do bad things? And the answer is yes. Well, guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
You know, shortly after Orville and Wilbur, you know, got us into the air, the Wright brothers, somebody said, you know, if we have too many planes in the air, there needs to be somebody guiding them. There needs to be somebody controlling them. And that's where you put in, you know, laws and controls and the FAA to control planes so that they're orderly.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
So I think you're also going to see the controlling side of it.

Well, about black mega Don Lemon now into chapter three of dammit, I'm relevant tour. You should get T-shirts is is basically saying some really outrageous things because he's off the leash. He's not controlled by a producer. He's not controlled by CNN. And he's out there. And at times he'll say something that sounds halfway rational. Meds on.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And then he says things like this, which I think are really offensive. You know, if you were if you were Hispanic or white or whatever and you had lost your job in media and you're going around saying somewhat outlandish things, getting on podcasts, you'd be pilloried for this stuff. Instead, he's allowed to say it. And I think it's really insulting.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
He's he's basically, you know, projecting intent on a class of people. Oh, if they feel this way, then this. That's terrible. Those people, first of all, they don't speak as a group. They speak as individuals, as an individuals. They may be. of a similar mindset on certain things.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
But to me, it's just he's taking a race of people and saying, okay, black MAGA, that means this, and drawing a conclusion and laying it out. If anybody else did this, except the struggling former talking head who's seeking, trying to find relevance, You know, I'd love to actually... And I'll tell you something. I'd love to sit down and talk to him about it. I'd love to sit down.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Don, what are you doing? How do you go from A to B? Where does the career go? Where does this go? Because these things sound crazy, Don. And I wish you would sit down with somebody rational and actually have that conversation. Because what I see here, objectively, I think it's kind of offensive.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
What's really interesting here is that Even with core Democrats, from the moment that Biden was inaugurated in 2021 to now, core Dems, they've dropped 20 points. So the core Dems are the ones that are not Bernie, but not mid. They are core liberals. They've dropped 20% in their own approval rating of their own party and what it used to stand for. And what has happened?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
In this fight to find relevance, all you've done is gone to feelings and enabled positions. You didn't have facts. You didn't have – let me back up one thing. Sometimes they had facts. In the Green New Deal, they talked about let's reduce CO2 and things like that. So I didn't agree with the Green New Deal at all. I thought it was wasteful.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
But at least they had some level of, hey, CO2, we want to move from here to here. And they had some numbers, some things that they wanted to run with. But when you run on these feelings and enablement and take power away from parents and kids and the woke agenda, everybody sits back and all of a sudden, guess what? We hear the front door open, dad's home, and his name is Common Sense.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And everyone goes, hey, dad, dad's home. And he's like, what the hell is this? And that's what's happened to the Democrat Party. People have looked at it. Look at the Dems that didn't vote for that basket of nothing during the election. Look at the ones that didn't vote. We've talked about them.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I won't take time talking about here, about all the groups and all the shifts and all the counties and everything. But why did they move? They moved toward facts and reason and away from feelings and enablement and, frankly, made-up positions. And now they look at the Democrat Party and they're like, America. Remember, this is the America poll, America-wide.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
You're sitting there at 29%, lowest ever. Guess what? Common sense came home.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Well, I feel like I'm watching and I was just trying to look it up. I feel like I'm watching a replay now in the podcast space of what the liberals were saying about talk radio in the 80s and 90s. We don't understand. This Rush Limbaugh guy has gone bonkers. You know, this Hugh Hewitt guy in Southern California has gone bonkers.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
You saw the guys who were out there, and there was a guy that was out there in the 80s and 90s in L.A. Tom Likas was trying to be the liberal voice, but then he became a male pig. We started talking about how to get laid and all these things like this. He was the original red pill guy. He's one of them. That's right. But guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
He wasn't talking about political things as much as all of a sudden the women were like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You're not going to the women's side of this. So I feel like what we just saw there is showing. And guess what happened? They looked at it. And you know what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Rush Limbaugh was getting people riled up talking about what the Democrats were doing to, tell me if this sounds familiar, education, the economy.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Guess what? And all manner of things. And people like Hugh Hewitt, who wrote a bunch of books and things that came around behind him. And that led to Glenn Beck. And why did these right wing conservative guys become so big in talk radio? Because people wanted to listen to it. And it was common sense. And I come back to that again. That's where it was.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
It wasn't that Russ Limbaugh was a super dynamic speaker. He was a very average speaker, but a powerful message. And that's what's happened. I feel like we're looking now and now they're looking at it now saying, I don't understand this. All these conservative leaning guys that have really strong voices, you know, and now in the podcasting space, I don't understand it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Just wipe the names off the dot and go back to talk radio in the 80s and 90s. It's history repeating itself. The average citizen wants what the conservatives have to say. And if you just give it a generation and then pull back all the liberal control that they put into the media ownership, guess what happens? I don't get it. And then Fox bad, Fox bad, Fox bad.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Because they're the only place on the block where you can get what you want.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I can't explain the economics of it. I can only tell you that for the last... Two Allen conferences where everybody wears their vests and goes up into, you know, the ski resort and all the media people get together. This is when you ask for PTO. That's right. Go ahead.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Yeah. And so basically, you know, I'm not making fun of it. I'm kind of just kind of jabbing at it a little bit. But during that conference, there's a lot of technology that's talked. There's a lot of very meaningful stuff that affects our lives is talked about. But guess what? You know. There's been two guys walking around, one of them trying to sell MSNBC, CNBC, and a bunch of other channels.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Hey, we're going to spin them off as a package. You want to buy it? And you've had David, what, Zazz, as they call him, the... Warner Brothers owner of CNN has been trying to sell CNN. And the good news, by the way, I had to make a conclusion from two different stories I read, so I can't say that someone said this exactly.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
But I'll tell you what I inferred, and I believe I was making a fair inference of it. They love the fact that Caitlin Collins... is only on a $3.5 million contract, and she's actually holding her own as an anchor in the sea. But they love the fact that she's $3.5 million. You know why? Because when they go to the next guy, hey, guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And when you buy CNN, you get Caitlin Collins, and she's on a rookie contract. You know, we've been having to chop everybody else's contract, and we took Jim Acosta. We moved in midnight, made him quit. It was such a cool trick.

Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And we got rid of that contract. And we're cutting everybody else. We cut Tapper. We cut all these people. But guess what? You get the rookie in the anchor chair, and she doesn't cost much. What about Anderson Cooper? We're going to cut him, too, but we've got to wait. We need an opportunity to do it. That's what's going on. And now Lawrence O'Donnell.

is out there, and by the way, if you don't read literature, you won't understand this, like Don Quixote. He's worn out because what did Don Quixote do? He hallucinated, and he thought the windmills were monsters, and he kept attacking the windmills until he kept falling off his horse. Well, guess what, Lawrence O'Donnell? You've turned things into hallucinating, and now you're really tired of it.

He's just figuring this out.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
You know what I like to talk about? Downstream problems that really are caused by upstream problems. Well, everyone's angry at the result. Doggone it. Schumer voted for this. That son of a gun has to go. He needs to be primary. He has to do all this. So all of the our hero Chuck, that was last week. This week, now Chuck's got to go. So I look at that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
So that's the polluted pond they're all upset about. And so you go upstream and you see what happened. What happened was Chuck Schumer was actually thinking strategically. And, yes, I use Schumer and strategically in the same sentence. I did. And I'll tell you what he was worried about. He was worried about that if there was a government shutdown. that Trump doesn't have the auto pen.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
He's just got a lot of pens, real pens, in his hand. And he was worried that there were going to be executive orders and that they were going to send Doge out to do a couple things under emergency orders which were available to the president. So Schumer was worried that Trump... And Musk were going to take executive actions when the government shut down.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And basically, I believe Schumer was threatened specifically with that. So what did Schumer do? He cut the best deal he could on the bill, packed some pork in it, got some things for a few constituents, and said, we got to go with it. We got to pass the CR continuing resolution so that the government has enough resources enough money, enough gas in a tank to keep operating.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
That's what Schumer did. But everyone lost their mind because they wanted Schumer to do what he did last time, to say, I'm not cooperating with Trump. You're not going to do it. Remember the argument they had in front of the fireplace in the Oval Office? And then Trump finally said, Chuck, I'll take it. I'll take that one. Make that on me. I'll take that. Remember that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Well, this time it's a different playing field because Trump, has changed the playing field. But that's what happened. And so now you've got Charlemagne, the God, and people. Guys, you've got to go look upstream and see why Schumer did this. It's because you were getting outplayed. You were getting out-negotiated and out-positioned. And Schumer... was in a corner and he had to do it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And now everybody's coming unglued. And Nancy Pelosi is saying, who knows exactly what happened. She actually breaks ranks and says, Chuck should listen to the ladies more. And she's trying to have some relevance and some toss in there. But come on, that's what happened.
PBD Podcast

She didn't come to the microphone and help Chuck Schumer. She sat there and let Chuck Schumer take the shot. When? On the weekend. She came out and said, Chuck, you should really listen to the ladies. She said that. And so rather than saying, hey, she could have said, Chuck's in a tough spot. Chuck's in a tough spot.

Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
We think there was an unelected official named Elon Musk that they were going to use executive actions and we had to act and this is what we did. That's what she should have said because that's what she really did. And that's what happened. And now everybody likes Charlamagne Tha God and everybody is like, Oh, my gosh. You let us down.

I'd be interested in him sitting down and explaining to some rational people, say, were you in a corner? What'd you do there? You're taking shots from your own constituency and some of the leaders in the podcast and everything. What happened, Hakeem? What's the plan? I'd like to hear that.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I later told him, I said, hey, look, I know you're coming back, getting back acquainted with people and everything. I'm really sorry to distract you. And he's like, no, no, no, it's cool. It's all right.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
This is a business issue, and no one's going to like what I say. But there are hardworking women in the WNBA that are the stateswomen for their team. They're the lead player for their team, the face of the team, and they're out there doing it. But guess what? You know what the reality is? until the team makes a profit.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And by the way, everything you talked about last year is tremendous progress and it puts them closer to making a profit because as soon as they're profitable, they can go on strike and they can go from 9% of the revenue to 12% of the revenue to 15% of the revenue to 20% of the revenue. But if there's no revenue, you can't get percent of nothing.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
If they go on strike right now and forced a, I was reading, even a 15% contract, two of the teams will absolutely fail. Because there are owners that own the other half of that, right? There's owners that own half of those teams. The NBA owns the other half. There are two teams that basically the owners are like, OK, I got two sevens and a jack. I'm out.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I'm out of this hand because he can't do that. And what they need. And by the way, maybe they should play hard, but not flagrant foul. You know, Caitlin Clark, who's can be, you know, the face of the league. They may not like it's a face of the league. There may be professional jealousies among players, but maybe at face of the league can help things go and get better.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Merch, people in seats, and a better TV contract. They're getting a TV contract improvement for the 26th season next year. And so the minute they are a profitable league, the players should do what baseball players and everybody else have done and saying, sorry, owners, you're making an awful lot of profit there. I think you should move us from 33% to 40% of total revenue.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And that's the way it's worked in other leagues. But step one, there's got to be profit to take.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Well, two things. We saw it in life insurance. And how often do we see it, Pat, that people, whenever we would talk to people about life insurance, what else do we talk about? Trust and will and making it current and specific. And we had a big sign on the wall that listed all of these prominent people over the course of history that didn't have wills that led to complications. Remember that?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And we would be sitting there counseling people just trying to figure out how much – life insurance they needed, and then end up talking about, well, do you even have a will? Do you even have this? You need a trust attorney. You need to go this.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And so what you have here is if it's a will, not a trust, and what they're saying is if both of them were in a terrible car accident, the 90-day clause goes like this. Somebody dies in a car accident, and maybe it takes somebody, you know, 30 days to die. Maybe there's no brain activity.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
There's a head injury, you know, and it takes a while before they say, well, we're going to turn off the respirator here, unfortunately. And it's all done. That's what the 90 day clause is. And the 90 day clause, what they've put in is, OK, well, if we both die in some accident, that's what it is. It's not murder, suicide. It's some accident. Then it goes to charity.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And if that's clearly put in their will, there's nothing any of the kids can do about it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Yeah, he's got to prove that there's something up. Because if they both just happen to die within 90 days... There's nothing they can do. But the days, like I was saying, do you understand? That's usually a car accident clause. Dad died immediately, mom hung on, and then she passed.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I think there's a trouble brewing here. And the trouble that I think is brewing is things like this, the oversight project showing that it was conclusively like, well, they're saying and their claim is it's nearly conclusive that these are all auto pen signatures. So we have that. Now we have even the press asking about it. You know, CNN's asking about it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And you have citizens asking about it on X and in other places. So now you're only one step from a senator or a congressman asking about it. And I think what's about to happen here is this is going to boil up and it's going to end up in front of the Supreme Court because it has to do with executive powers. And specifically the execution and proper execution of executive powers.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
So I think this is number one. It's not going away. And number two, if it gets a Supreme Court, I've gone down the list. I think this is five four. I think this is if it gets a Supreme Court. Should you or should you not use the auto pen? The conservative view is probably going to come down five four.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
That's a second question, and I think you probably could answer that with, depending on the people, you've got a couple hell yeses in there, Anthony Fauci, and you've got a couple maybes.

I give a lot of credibility to what he's saying, and I'll tell you why. There was something that I studied a lot. I was in grad school when TWA 800 went down in Long Island Sound. It was 747, the last several years of TWA operating as an airline, leaving New York, heading to Europe. And it gets up, gains altitude over Long Island Sound, and explodes in midair. It exploded and went down.

ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
96. And there was very credible evidence and some fuzzy footage of what looked like a streaking missile that this thing was shot down by a SAM, surface-to-air missile. Okay. And I remember listening to all that. And then no one wanted to talk about that. And these guys are trying to get on TV and showing this. These look like very credible people.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And there was like five of them and two of them didn't know each other. And then there was three of them together. So it's like, wait, these people don't even know each other. And so they said, oh, there was frayed wiring in the central fuel tank that sparked. Why is there wiring in a fuel tank? Central wiring in a fuel tank that arced and the fuel tank exploded.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
To which I acted, you know, I was asking, well, how did the wiring get frayed? And I had a friend that said, well, it's probably that damn missile.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
So no one talked about it. And then this came out that was absolutely true some 20 years later. Why did the NTSB seize all the recordings from the tower radar recordings at night? They seized them. Because they didn't want evidence of secondary things. And the answer is no one talks about it, but it was probably the U.S.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Navy had a test going on and they effed up and we shot down a passenger plane. That is what a ton of people, they all say conspiracy theories, conspiracy theory. Well, come on. This had never, ever happened before like this. So when I hear things like this, I remember sitting through that.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
and watching how the government was so silent, watching how the NTSB changed their story, and watching how it happened. So when I hear this guy talking about the government very quietly going about its business, and he thinks that it's government drones that are out there sniffing for something, I kind of believe that. Excuse me. No, no. I find it believable. I'm going to say it right now.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
I find it believable that said if something got smuggled in, they're trying to find it. And there's things we don't know about. There's people that are apprehended all the time that are truly bad people. Now, it's not like Hollywood. They're not holding on to a nuclear suitcase or anything. But there's really bad people that we apprehend all the time.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
So when I see a PBD and I see this guy, I say, you know what? This is very believable because, number one, it's the job of government to do this, that even when they F up and something gets across our border, it's their job to have all these systems available to go find out what's up. So I see this as very believable.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
But on the other side, I also see it as, okay, what are they trying to sell, and what do they want us to do, and what do they need? It's exactly the PSYOP you're talking about. Who's the source? Who's the platform owner?
PBD Podcast

I've been looking into this, Pat, and I'll just give you one very, very fast example.

So I love how all of this has come home to roost. So Stephanopoulos, what you see there is a man hell bent on maintaining his narrative. That's what you see there. And what you see there was a woman who was standing her ground and not allowing him to use the interview with her for that narrative. And then he overstepped and what he said was incorrect.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And he pushed it and he pushed it from the platform of the national news, the main evening news, ABC, and he got called out for it. And something was happening. If you can go find—Rob, can you find, really real quick, I'm sorry, we needed this for this, the deposition. Stephanopoulos was scheduled to be deposed. Their settlement came, Pat, like just a couple days from when they were—
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
So yeah, four days ago, Trump was ordered to sit for defamation, but Stephanopoulos was also going to be deposed. And when you get deposed, what do we know? They can ask you a lot of stuff and they can go broad. ABC didn't want George Stephanopoulos to be deposed. They didn't want that because if they start opening it up, guess what happens during discovery?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
You find a lot of stuff like the producer notes for that segment, like other things. And so ABC was like, yep. Reid also ordered Stephanopoulos to sit for deposition this week, either in person or remotely. His deposition was limited to four hours. He was going to sit there and get his little Greek ass grilled for four hours.

So Popovich, like many celebrities or people of stature... He has a contract. That contract guarantees he will be paid. He signs the contract that guarantees he gets paid after he signs it. America goes to work and we get paychecks. They get paychecks after they work. And if they get a little sideways or something like this, they get dismissed.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And it's this weird dichotomy where once you're a professional athlete, you get the big contract, suddenly you can say what you want, you can do what you want, unless you're a little conservative. But Popovich can pop off like this? He's not supporting the business that's paying him the contract because guess what?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
The business doesn't have to do it because the business has a guaranteed contract called the TV media rights and the digital media rights that ESPN and others pledge billions up front. So guess what? They don't have to think like a business, work like a business. They can go out with their Trump derangement syndrome and there's no consequence for it. Is there any consequence for Popovich? Really?

And Mike Johnson started releasing it. Remember that, Pat? Yeah. Now why? Now we see it. We see five cops waving their arms like this and doing like this. Come on in. Opening the doors like this and seeing orderly people going up and down the halls. All this stuff on J6. And then Trump comes out and says, look, if they're holding a committee, look, here's what would happen. If they...

Let's say a businessman is in his office, and he hears, hey, you know, you've got these government contracts, Vinny. You know those government contracts? Remember you were changing the pricing on that stuff?

Guess what? They've been calling us for three days, and they want to come in and talk to our accountant, and apparently there's five guys coming tomorrow. And you start deleting records. You start going and finding any time you've printed out the invoices, you delete those. You take a couple boxes home, you delete those, and you throw them in the recycle thing, they get picked up.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
You know what that's called? Obstruction of justice by frustrating an investigation, by deleting or destroying evidence that you were ordered to preserve. Like Hillary with her... So this committee that's supposed to investigate this goes for a year and a half? I agree with Trump. The committee... I mean, they're talking about, remember they wanted Trump's notes and little papers.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Oh, all those notes from the president have to go to Library of Congress. Every last thing, even if you wrote on a small piece of paper, listening to someone in a meeting, this guy is an unbelievable jerk. That little note, if I was president, goes to the... They take everything. And so a committee comes up here.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
They go a year and a half, and then they destroy the evidence, and now the stuff is coming out. And Trump says, I think they committed a big crime. He's right. You or me, ladies and gentlemen, we would be charged with obstruction of justice and frustrating an investigation by destruction or suppression of evidence that we have been ordered to preserve.

This is a government committee, ladies and gentlemen. that gets to the end of it and said, you know what? We better not have any evidence come out about Pelosi in this. Oh, you mean the video from her niece in the car where she's admitting what she did? And so what Trump is saying, I think he's absolutely correct. And compare that to the J6 things on Adam Schiff. Adam Schiff should be embarrassed.

You just mentioned pardon. I want to see if Adam Schiff or Nancy Pelosi end up on the Biden list. For sure. But here's the thing, though. You have to be convicted of a crime. What have they been convicted of? No, you don't. Hunter wasn't convicted. Hunter's in the middle. Hunter was convicted of certain things.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
But over those 10 years that he was at the pardon, the pardon covers 10 years, not a specific crime. That was the issue with Hunter Biden. So why didn't you just say, hey, the gun charge and the tax thing, and we'll just pardon you for that. No, he pardoned Hunter for anything he could have done, including farting in church over a 10-year period. What?

Well, to be fair, 10 years ago when it started and when they, you know, 10% for the big guy, which allegedly meant that there was some sort of a payment going to Biden. Biden wasn't president. Biden didn't have the power. So you could say that Hunter appears to be a horribly troubled person. That's very objective. And over the course of time, all these things happen.

Well, it's the kind of decision I made. Kim and I, we had kids later, as everybody knows. We're blessed later, but then we start looking around at schools. So we're paying taxes in California, and we're looking at the schools. And we're looking at the expense.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Now, we were blessed with some capabilities, but we used to talk about it because Kim's a schoolteacher, that she would see the frustration in the faces of parents of kids that would come in. And not kids misbehaving. These are kids coming in with their parents on back-to-school night, and their parents are coming in asking, hey, what can we do? What books should we be reading over the summer?

And so you look at the other states, and you look at the cost, you look at the tax, and you say, if I'm going to have a fighting chance to raise this kid and give the kid enrichment activities and things like that, because we're thinking about, you know— How do you just buy cleats and shin guards to go play soccer and pay for soccer leagues? You know, in California, it's so expensive and things.

You know what? You look at other states and you think about moving and you think about going to states that are going to give you the ability to have a better lifestyle and to be afford to raise your kids. And the other side of it is, isn't it interesting? Isn't it interesting where all these expenses are happening in blue states that are so pro-abortion?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And I'll just kind of leave that hanging out there. But parents look to other places, Pat, so they can go someplace where there's jobs and lower expense so they have a fighting chance to raise their kid, provide enrichment activities, be able to fund them if they want to.

Yeah, noise is natural. Noise is natural. It is distractions at your desk. It is people with different opinions. I'll give you a great example, folks. Signal-to-noise ratio.

And the moms are trying to break the signal through to people to let them know, we should see this movie. Here's why. This is a great movie. We're all going to have a good time this afternoon. That's signal. Everything else that you allow or happens is noise. And in your business, you have to allow noise to be present so that it alerts you to maybe the presence of
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
a signal that you think that, that you thought was noise. So you can see here another perspective, but you got to stay on signal. Otherwise you get nowhere. And what he's talking about, Steve jobs was 90% signal, meaning he was focused and listening to that, which he believed was right and staying on course. And there was 10% noise.

Tom. So I'll give Americans a quick little history lesson. 2020, we know what happened in our election over here. Biden defeated Trump narrowly amidst COVID and all the stuff that was going on. In 2021, Justin Trudeau won 39% liberal, 36% conservative. Now, remember, Canadians, if you go up there, you'll see orange signs, white signs, green signs, blue signs.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
You know, over in America, you see red and blue. They have four very, very viable parties and two small ones. And so it was 39 percent liberal, 36 percent conservative. So in other words, Justin Trudeau in 2021 barely stepped across the line. Right. Barely stepped across the line. And now he is looking the polling.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
is looking like he is going to take the greatest defeat in Canadian political national election history. All the polls up there, even the ones that are lying, are pointing to that. And on top of it, the economy is tight. Special elections. Special elections are happening. Why do you have a special election?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Well, you have a special election because someone dies or resigns or something happens and there's an open seat. So you got to have a special election. There was a special election recently. It went 66% conservative, 19% liberal. So forget about the polls. You look at little things like that. Justin Trudeau is about to be thrown right out the front door of the Canadian Parliament.

ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And then he's talking about Chrystia Freeland, who is the finance minister who pledges her support to Justin Trudeau. And now she quit yesterday. So now Trudeau is on the edge of a big defeat, and everyone has lost confidence in his ability to govern at a time where someone in the U.S. got their attention when Trudeau came down to have dinner with him. And it didn't go very far.

He's about to suffer a huge defeat. They're like, you're going to get crushed anyway. Let's not wait for the election. Why don't you resign? Let's elect a new prime minister. This is going to be a more conservative government that we have here. And let's talk to the United States about fairness in our trading so that we don't have the tariffs happen. That is what the moderates are saying, Pat.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Let's get a dialogue with the U.S. and not have these things come true because Canadian papers, I could pull one. Rob, you don't have to look for it, but it's out there. They had a little thing that said days until inauguration. Why are they saying that? Because they regard that, Pat, as a countdown to negotiate the tariff situation.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
So guess who's negotiating well for the U.S., and guess who's got the Canadian attention, and they are all running amok, and Justin Trudeau is about to... When these guys say you heard him say he's just delaying the time to get his what pension. He said it there because Trudeau will get a prime minister's pension to go off to retirement. But ladies and gentlemen, that's what's happening in Canada.

Yeah, I've got two things that line up with you. Number one, if this was really a threat and you had somebody right at our – you know, our back door there, those drones would be taken out. I mean, the Chinese balloon went on for a little bit and then the Biden administration couldn't handle it any further and they shot the balloon down.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Then there was another one that like popped and landed in the ocean or something, right? So step one, if this was really bad and really a threat, These would be gone. Step two, the government is always doing things trying to move us into position. Look at what came out just this week, and I'm sure we'll talk about it later, on January 6th. Oh, there was 26, 27 guys there that were facilitating.

PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Well, look, I mean, why did Edwards Air Force Base—we were in Southern California, Pat. We talked about it in the last podcast. And people in Tehachapi, California City, and Mojave, which are the cities, if anybody looks on a map, are all surrounding— Edwards Air Force Base. And Edwards Air Force Base was down the street from this thing in Burbank called the Skunk Works.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And the Skunk Works is where they made these really secret, elaborate planes. Burbank, Tom? Yeah. And they flew them and they transported them on covered trucks and everything at midnight and took them out to Edwards. And people would see it all the time. And they never told us in Southern California. People talked about the Sonic Bats. There was an F-22 fighter.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
It was the stealth fighter flying around at Mach 2 or something. So I believe there's military testing going on, and they don't want to talk about it. But they want to kind of move the public's fear into area because what do you do? How do you get things done? Take advantage of a crisis or maybe make some uncertainty or make some crisis. Bingo.

Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
A recession by definition, two quarters, I'm only at like 10, 20 percent. But you have to remember what a recession is. A recession is the consumer... Spending drops. GDP drops two quarters. Because people aren't spending. Why are they spending? Because their sentiment went down. Why is their sentiment down now? Because everybody is telling them it's bad. Why is everybody telling them it's bad?
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
Because they don't give enough time for these tactics to come to fruition, to get to the other side of what we're going to do. A recession doesn't mean that the auto industry has been nuked. It just means that all the spending was down for two quarters. Now, I think there's a 20% chance that that could happen. That's what I think. But I'll tell you, I'm with Eric on the taxing.

And everybody knows they're for sale, which is the part that shocks me. They live in the echo chamber. They love her inside the echo chamber. Oh, you're our girl. You're a tough girl. Boy, look at you. Inside the echo chamber, they love it. But outside, you're right.

Yeah, so I... I kind of did a double blink when I was listening to it. I said, wait a minute. So you got Doge at the Defense Department. You're like, what, 880 or something like that right now? 880B, you know, that you're spending. And you got Doge in there. You're laying off civilians that are in supplemental administrative positions, as you defined it.

Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
And you're trying not to just drop all these arms off at NATO that now you want them to pay for. So that wouldn't be your defense budget. That would be with their bang from Boeing and Raytheon. Okay, I get it. But how do you get to the trillion thing?
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
It's like, I'm going to save all this money in government and then for my enemies, I'm going to scare the hell out of you because I'm bringing it up to a trillion. This is going to be like Star Wars and Reagan. I'm going to have an even bigger weapons system that I'm going to be there and do. But the market goes... Did I hear $240 billion in EBITDA? I think I did.
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
And so all the indexes, all the defense indexes move and it moves the market a little bit. Because the market is right now, and Eric, this is all you, is sentiment driven. Wenn der sentiment ist ein guter Mut oder ein schlechter Mut, dann bewegt er sich um. Ich habe nie die VIX gesehen, die sich mit dieser Volatilität bewegt. Und so bin ich so, weißt du was?
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
Es ist nicht der Volatilitäts-Index, sondern der Velocity-Index. Es ist nur die Velocity von Dollar, die kommen, weißt du, es ist wie Wälder, hohe Tide, hohe Tide. Also die VIX, die ich anschaue und sage, weißt du was, ich werde dich irgendwann zurücknehmen und ich vertraue dir, VIX. Aber gerade jetzt ist alles, was du bist, eine Messung von Velocity.
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
Und schau dir das an, ein Trillionen Dollar für die Verteidigung ist eine hellige Menge von Velocity.

So... Sometimes there's headlines I look at and I say, wait a minute, we were kind of expecting this. Because China's intra-country travel has been down. The people inside China have been traveling less because their economy has been, let me look, down. And so they've had these issues. And so Boeing, I think, was expecting a moderation in the deliveries of the PO that they got there.
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
And so this headline is kind of like, you know, we kind of saw it coming. But now they say, well, China is telling Boeing not to do it because they want to, you know, stab at the United States on this. Well, I think there's a lot of that there, too. But... Hit that one month on that chart right there.
PBD Podcast

Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
Tom. I agree. We've had real ID standards since Texas. We have one with the star in Texas. When I came down here, I noticed my new driver's license here had the star. And I think it's a good thing. And by the way, I'll add something. When I went from California to Texas, I surrendered my California driver's license. They say, I'm sorry, that's not an acceptable form of ID. Why?
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
Because it's been compromised because you can get it as a general ID. And so we need a birth certificate or something. So I actually went and got my Social Security card, tattered it was, in this plastic envelope. I came back, is this good enough? And this is my passport? Yes.
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
But it was so funny that you couldn't get a driver's license in Texas in 2015 by trading in a California license because they said, that's not good.

Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
Well, Trump said, I want to leverage things to get the world to come to the table. And so, okay, we're using tariffs. And I'm on board with that. Die 32? Ja. You got two things here. One of them is tariffs. And, you know, you're not really bad on tariffs, Eric. But you know what? I know you're cheating. And I know you got intellectual property things going on.
PBD Podcast
Trump & Bukele BLAST CNN's Kaitlan Collins w/ Eric Bolling & Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 577
And I know you've got some relabeling on country of origin. And that's annoying. So let's fix that. So maybe the tariff gets them to the table. Maybe leverage gets them to the table. So you can talk about all these other things. You know, the biggest one to deal with is China. Das ist der größte, den man mitzunehmen muss.

The Arizona voters shifted. And I believe you're going to see meaningful numbers. Is it 90 percent the other way? No, it won't be 90 percent the other way. But just like when the Arizona voters on immigration, they moved. From Biden voters to Trump voters. And they were very firm Biden voters.

Do you think they will flip? Yes. And I think they will absolutely flip. And I saw, so I look at Arizona, and that's human nature. Whether you're a celebrity or not, there are celebrities in there. And Adam Carolla had a five-minute monologue that he did. And he talked about, before the fires even happened,

That, you know, God rest her soul, you know, there's an actress he knew and her husband that had tried to expand and build in Malibu, and they couldn't. They couldn't get the permits done. They couldn't get this done. And he's pointing out, Adam Carolla correctly, he says, you just wait until you get permits. now you've lost your home and it's the fault of the state.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Now you have to go get permits to get it done. Those people, I absolutely believe that there are people there that are more mid than they want to admit and that they are going to move. And you saw one of them in Calabasas. You talked about one of the stories we have today is a woman in Calabasas who's very, very wealthy from a very powerful family who has said, I'm fed up right now.

No, remember, we left in 2015. I was older than 37 when we left. But this is exactly what we were thinking about. That's right. We were thinking about school quality for our kids. We were at, I won't say the name, a very prominent private school in L.A.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And what was very interesting, it was the best in terms of the it was moderate and it was having more celebrity kids come there, moderate coming there from Harvard, Westlake and and things that were far more liberal and. And we were looking at all of that. And I was like, you know what? I can't raise my girls here. And for a lot of reasons, I felt squeezed out of California. And I left.

You're somebody that the state shouldn't lose. Exactly. My dad worked in aerospace industry. He was literally a rocket engineer, mathematician. He met my mom at a defense contractor where they both work. She was a file clerk. I was born out there. I lived through the 1971 earthquake. I lived through the 1994 Northridge earthquake where the school I was going to.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
I had graduated, but it was the 94 earthquake that was so severe where you had all the stuff that collapsed everywhere. up there at Cal State Northridge. I went and got an MBA at Pepperdine University. I'm a California kid. I was born out there. My dad's job moved us, and we were in a little bit in Florida, a little bit in Connecticut.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
But I came back there where all my cousins and family was, and that was it. And then I get married, and I feel squeezed out. And I wasn't alone. I talked to so many people that were going through the same mental process that I went through. And I got something to say about this. This was, yes or no, the closest election in the last five elections for the Republican candidate, right?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
It was that close after 1.2 million conservatives left, which shows you that the people that are there are shifting. Can you imagine if those 1.2 conservatives were still there, how close that election would have been? And so the people in California, I'm seeing people are fed up. I see people that are leaving.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
No, I agree with that, but I'm saying that there's some secret agent moderates that have flipped.

PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And so I found – looked at it, and there's – there are – A couple different consumers in Palisades. Consumer number one, I own my home and it's paid off, but I didn't have full insurance on it. That's my choice. Once I own the whole home, it's my choice on how I insure it and do I put an umbrella policy over it. Those people, if they have the resources, they will pay to rebuild it themselves.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
If they don't have the money to pay to rebuild and they were underinsured, they're probably going to sell the property to somebody else because you just don't have the money to rebuild it. The second group is you had a mortgage, and this is probably the safest group because if you had a mortgage, you had to have insurance on the structure the mortgage company requires you to.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
As a matter of fact, when you're just starting out and it's your first home, it's called PMI. They force you to have insurance on your home. So those people that had insured are going to rebuild their home permanently. But do they have enough bridge money to live in an apartment or live somewhere else and wait the three years or more it's probably going to take to rebuild the home? That's it.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So they may run out of bridge money. The insurance company says, well, Vinny, we're going to pay to rebuild the home at today's prices. But this is the percent that you're covering. So you may only have like $85,000. 80%, 85%. So you're going to build something smaller. It's more expensive. And you may decide to rebuild and wait if you've got bridge or you sell.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And the last group is the super wealthy. They're just going to rebuild again. But that's the smallest group. There is going to be developers that come in. Because Palisades, let's talk about Palisades and Altadena separately. In Palisades, no developer is going to come in there and build 5,000 condos, right?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
It's going to be large single-family homes that are eventually going to rebuild, and it's going to be a completely new neighborhood, probably more expensive than it ever was. But it's going to take probably a full 10 years to complete. Because how are you going to rebuild it? You can't just rebuild them all at once. There's not enough labor, there's not enough contractors. Right.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Now, in Altadena, there's some more moderate neighborhoods over there. Those people are probably going to sell. And as for the insurance cancellation, I was looking at this, Pat. What they're saying is... You can't send them a letter right now saying, hey, Patrick, just to let you know, when your policy is up, you will be canceled. They won't say canceling you.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That's what they say if you're a bad driver. They'll say, we won't be renewing your policy, Patrick, in September. People need that notice so they can look around and find somebody else. And they're telling the carriers, you can't send out notices that say you're going to cancel in the future. We don't want people to have that. So the insurance companies are like, well, wait a minute.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
What if Patrick is up May 1st? That's like in two months. We're not even going to have all the ashes swept out of the streets by then. But we need to let Patrick know we won't be renewing your insurance policy because there's no structure. And so you'll just need – by the way, remember, you don't need – a home insurance policy when there's no structure.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
You only need liability because it's your property and if someone slips and falls on your driveway because your driveway is the only thing that's left. Right? You do... No, the reality... I'm not making a joke. The reality is you do need that basic coverage. And so I... You know, I'm looking around, Pat, and I think there's a lot of these consumers are going to be selling.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And the ones that are going to stay, you know, they got to have extra resources to cover the real rebuild cost and living in an apartment for three years. Because people are saying it's a minimum of three years because you got to find a developer. You got to get supplies. You got to get a permit. And then you got to get all this cleaned up. And we haven't even talked about something.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
The entire – all the neighborhoods that were above ground electrical, guess what? PG&E has got to come in and rebuild all the electric lines and everything in those communities so that there's electricity for when they rebuild those homes.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
People had their house paid off. Yes. That, for some of them that don't have the resources and were underinsured, that is their only choice. Jeez. To sell the land to tomorrow's developer and...

I think it's a great idea. I think what happens is sometimes, you know, innovation comes out of just forward thinking and great futurists and visionaries. Other times innovation comes out of crisis. And I think right now we've had enough wildfires in California, number one. Number two, we've had enough of samples of wildfires outside of California.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
I think the telegraph fire was in Arizona, I believe. Is that right, Rob? Yeah. um and and lahaina so you you have the crisis set and you know i don't know if the state would be the one that would figure it out um but if you had a board of
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
proven entrepreneurs that are figuring out where this goes, then I think you've got a great chance of succeeding because you've got a bunch of entrepreneurs there that have built things that understand what it takes. And it's not just bureaucrats making decisions. I think the key to success, what you talked about, would be that board of entrepreneurs that are making decisions.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Okay, this is what we're going to do here. This is what we're going to do here. There are right now there's been innovations in insurance such as they use drone technology and they fly around. And if you told them that you have a 1965 Corvette and it's parked in a garage and it's locked and they run this drone around your neighborhood three times. And they say, it's not parked there.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
You have an extra large driveway. It's parked to the side under a tarp. That's not as safe from theft as it would be in your garage. We're going to underwrite you differently. There's a lot of ways where there's innovations that are out there. And I like the idea of having innovation everywhere.

No. And this is so I'll stick to that. But then I have a comment about Mark, if that's OK. So right now, if you're going to pick enemies out there in business, I don't know if Apple is the one I would pick. And he's Facebook and other people have said, well, you know, you know, Apple takes 30 percent. Apple takes 30 percent.
PBD Podcast

Why don't you make a T-shirt and go ask Macy's what percent Macy's wants to make on that T-shirt? It's called a retail profit.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Right. It's basically retail. And so it's like the developers are out there saying, well, why does Apple take 30% of everything? Because they made the phone. They invented the thing. And if you want to be in their store, in the iPhone as a store, you have to do it. But I think picking Apple as an enemy...
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
With Apple's reach and Apple's influence on Meta and Instagram and on everything that's there, I don't know if I'd be picking Apple as an enemy, but I do know this. Mark Zuckerberg is very clever, and there is a quote in a journal. I think it was one of his PR people in the journal that says, well, this is the real Mark. Well, this is the real guy, trying to portray it as if,
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
All these years, you haven't been seeing Mark Zuckerberg. This is the real guy. You know, oh, there it is. You know, Zuckerberg debuts real Mark and push to woo Trump. This is all about, this is all about, that was what it was. What was this? Yesterday, last night. So tell me I was bored. So basically he is picking an enemy while he's on this tour to put Facebook in a better position.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Because as we said on the last podcast, the hearings are coming back on whether Facebook was intentionally doing things that cause young, young people, specifically young girls to become kind of addicted to it. And then there was a negative effect and they knew about it and they did nothing about it. There's a lot of things in there. And Facebook is trying to be like, Wow. Guess what?
PBD Podcast

There's a new sheriff in town. His name is Trump. Well, let's see if we can get Trump's friend to be on our board. Let's see if we can. You know, well, I'll pick Apple as an enemy, you know, and I think a lot of this is a little showmanship. And I don't know about picking Apple as an enemy, though. I think that's. To me, that's kind of dicey. Apple decides, you know, I'm upset with you.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533

If you go take a look— No, but the question is, what have they created? Well, I read an article two years ago, maybe three years ago. It says, since the thumbs-up like, which was a Facebook innovation, that the news feed and the thumbs-up like were sort of extensions of Facebook— And everything else, look at what they bought. They bought Instagram. They bought WhatsApp.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
They abandoned their own picture service that they were trying to build. And they bought Instagram. And you look at what they've bought versus what they've created. And the metaverse... Zuckerberg was spending how much on that for four years? Where is it? That's what I'm saying. What is the last thing they created since the Facebook? I'm making your point.
PBD Podcast

They've done little things on Facebook, but there's been nothing groundbreaking in there.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
I agree. Everything that I've ever read about Mark Zuckerberg and what we've seen in Congress is that he is scripted and intentional in public. He does not go off at the end and just go to the corner of the room and just talk about what he's thinking.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Tom. I agree with that point. And one of the things I was thinking about when I made my top 10 predictions for the year, there was one... It was like in the... like number 13. I was making my list. And one of the things I was noticing was this X has put video programming on X like long form, like a football game, right? They did it. YouTube TV.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
They've been going at it for years and they also just got a NFL Sunday ticket, right? Yep. About a year ago. They signed that people enjoying that. And then Amazon, Amazon had some playoff games. Remember that? Yep. Well, what does Facebook need? They need stickiness, and they have a slightly older demographic than other social media.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And so I thought about it, and then I didn't think about what I'm about to say. But then I started thinking about it again a week ago, Pat, when Dana White's on the board. It says Facebook... offering video programming, almost like linear TV, and there's a certain guy on the board that has some of the biggest pay-per-view events in the known universe.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So I was thinking about that when I was doing my... top prognostications for the year saying, what if Facebook gets into the content game the way Amazon and others have tried? Because they don't have that. That's one thing they don't have. And what they need is stickiness to make the ad sales go further.

So, boy, we're starting to see Bannon. Boy, he was... When he got out and got back on the microphone and got out after, in my opinion, wrongfully imprisoned, wrongfully prosecuted, but when he came back out, he is – He's got a belly full of fire.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And the thing that he's linked his, you know, two weeks of diatribe to has been H-1B and his position that it takes jobs away from American workers and that they're lower cost jobs. And then the H-1B recipient can't change jobs easily. That's his core. I'm not saying that's my point. I'm saying that's what Bannon has said.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And he says, so therefore, since they're getting them for a lower price and they can't change jobs, they have a person there and they should be paying more to an American worker of whatever color. But an American citizen should have that job. So he's been really revved up on that.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So he's been head to head with Elon Musk on that because Elon Musk was, you know, it was kind of aimed at Bannon and others. When people were very firm on H-1B and Musk said to everybody, F you in the face. You know, this is the way I feel about it. And but I don't agree with Bannon doubling down. And then, you know, you know, South Africa being racist. Yeah, there's a history there.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
But that's that'd be like if I had a German president. which I don't, but I had a German grandparent, be like Bannon saying, there goes Ellsworth and his German grandparents always wanting to start a war and take things over. I think that's out of bounds, right? Has South Africa had a history? Sure it has. But how do you put that... You know, on Elon, because he hasn't shown that.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
I haven't seen a racist guy. I see a guy sending Starlink around the world for natural disasters. I don't really see that. I think Bannon's got an issue with visas, and he's got a big beef with Musk, and it's boiling over into some really heavy nationalist...

And they said it was a fluke.

I mean, come on. It wasn't like she stopped on the freeway, he got out, and he got hit by a truck. She deliberately had that horrible crash, and... Anyway, what I read was that the speculation was in her mental state. She was depressed, she was angry, and she was high.

Well, Beyond the first point, which was my very mechanical research into it, and that's hard to watch and the sound is horrifying. You know, you've got a situation now with parents that are going to reflect back and saying, wow, all of our child rearing, all the things we did, all the things we set up, all the examples we set, all the guardrails, if any, and now she's Driving while stoned high.

We know that because of the THC levels were there. Exceeding the legal limit. I didn't know there was a legal limit for THC in that state, actually. You know, I know there's DUIs, but I think that, you know, you got to look back and to the Michigan case with the shooter. Parents got to take some accountability here and got to take some accountability, you know,

Insurance companies, we'll go back to that, are really good at making you pay if your kids broke a $2,000 window with a baseball in your neighbor's house and your kid's not 18. That insurance company on that $2,000 window with labor and everything, three grand to replace it, their homeowner's insurance company is going to be really good at finding you and asking you to pay for that.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
They're really good at that. And Michigan has said, hey, you know what? You're buying guns. You've got them in the house. You've got this, and you're responsible for the deeds of your kids. There needs to be parental accountability here, and there needs to be accountability for whatever you did, however you raised her, whatever happened.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Something broke, and something wasn't right, and she thinks it's okay to be high and driving, number one. Number two, she's in a relationship with somebody. Where were you with the breakup? What do you know about it? How close are you to your kid with what they're going through with their friends? Do you know who's in your circle of friends? Around your kids? Do you know who's in your kids' ears?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That's your responsibility as a parent. Kids will hide. Kids will have secret friends. Kids will do things. But transparency, guardrails, active parenting is all there to prevent it. And those parents are very shocked as any parents would be getting the news. But the question is, where were you?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Where were you and how in your household did she, you know, how was she raised and what was permissible, what was wasn't? And I think we're entering an era where we really got to look long and hard about parental responsibility in a lot of these things. Kids will do dumb things, but they will do less done things when raised well. Mm-hmm.

So what you have on here is you have to remember who greenlit this. Iger Green lit this. Of course he did. Probably two to three years ago. And what's her name? Kathleen Kennedy was part of that. And so this comes right out of the pre-

Fake shift at Disney because Disney's trying to make a fake shift, right? They're trying to say, oh, it's really not this. It's really not that. They're trying to make this fake shift and get people back in the parks and build content. And so instead, this thing comes out, which was greenlit two years ago, and it just shows you. You just saw what a bubble looks like.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That is a thought bubble, a creative bubble. You just saw the bubble. And it's like, are you three people serious? The one guy is apparently a journalist covering it or a PR guy. But you're looking into that and you're saying, so you people are making the decision. Does it surprise you that that's the movie that came out if that was the creative people in the room? She's a showrunner.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Right. So exactly. And so it doesn't surprise me. What surprised me is there's actually 16% of Americans that thought the content's better, right? That's the curiosity I have is where are the 16% somewhere? Do they all live in – do they all just live in West Hollywood? Of course they are. And this isn't an attack on anybody's lifestyle.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
My point is if you live in a bubble like that and you're building and you're making content for a more broad-based audience – Says, you know, there's that's that's a little over the top with all. What was the joke they were making about, you know, R2D2? Are you do me or whatever the name of the robot she was talking about?

Tom, I think this is what leadership looks like. Take a look at the way the Democrats campaign. They campaign on feelings, right? We'll step aside from the I'm not Trump. That was the strategy. Be not Trump. But it's all about feelings. You have been deprived by them. You have been discriminated by them. Feelings, feelings, feelings. It's all about feelings.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And when you get into facts, they don't want to talk about it because they want to create the angry feeling response in the voter. And when you go to negotiate and your tactic to win an election, Joe Biden, was based on feelings. And when the strategies you use are feelings projected by media and the person on the other side goes, that's all you've got is feelings. And they laugh at you, Hamas.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
They laugh at that. And then a guy with substance. who says simple words. I don't need to define that for you. You know who he's talking to? He's talking to Hamas, and he's telling them, I don't need to define that for you either.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And when leadership that has substance, that knows that reasonable actions are going to follow reasonable conclusions, and that statements are not to be doubted because the actions will follow and you're not going to like the consequence. It's decisions have consequences. You have made the decision. I will bring the consequences. And it's action.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
It's leadership and action that you're seeing out of Trump there, and they're moving not unlike what on Ronald Reagan. Because you know what the best position for America is? The best position for America is when the rest of the world thinks that our guy is decisive and a little crazy. I love that. Because that is our card.

It was them talking to their own companies, apparently. Pharmaceuticals, microtrips, aircraft engines. And we're asking firms to identify critical goods that need Levy 3. levy free and scroll up to the top of it, please. And now I mispronounce it. Not ethene, it's ethane. It was US ethane, because there was five of their top, right back there, right back there. Stop, stop. There you go.

Five of their top ten chemical companies says, we need this freaking ethane from the US so we can make plastic and stuff.

PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
It will also go down for the federal government on Medicare. Because what is Medicare Part D? It's a special insurance you get. D stands for drugs. It's for if you have a condition, you have a thyroid condition, somebody has to take a special medication that's more expensive. It's not covered fully under Medicare. And they even lobby to make it so that they can't prescribe you the generics.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
So they're in the knickers of Medicare like that. And so now you would also make it so that maybe elderly people in Medicare, the US tax dollars would go farther so they could get the thyroid drugs and things that they need. And they wouldn't be reaching into their pocket for Medicare Part D. I love that, Tom.

I think Mayor Pete disappears. Kamala isn't even going to be on the stage. They're not going to let it happen. You think AOC will be on the stage? I think AOC... If AOC is on the stage, she's being allowed to be on the stage if she's non-volatile enough to be a VP candidate.
PBD Podcast

If she's non-volatile enough. If she gets up on stage and says, whack, then I think what will happen is I'll pull her back. But I think she's maturing. I think she's maturing as a politician.

And rather than ignoring it because it's nothing, they say, that study is unsourced and nothing. Really, it seems to have got your attention on a Monday morning. What's up with that? They said, no, no, no, no, no. But we're calling on the state to redouble efforts to work with... Refineries, and there's a typo there, it should say, the few refineries that are left.

States should redouble efforts to work with the few of refineries left to ensure a reliable supply of gasoline. What this is, guess what? This is called consequence, it's the headlines. That's what's happening here. And the guy that chased them out through taxation and regulation... Ja, genau.

One of the things that that Mayor Antonio, one of the things that he was correct about, he was worried about, everyone wanted to recreate downtown LA with jobs. And you know what he kept asking? Where are the workers going to live that they could actually get here in less than an hour in the morning? You see that? He was right. Everyone's moving out to Riverside.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
They're moving out to San Bernardino. They're moving out to Valencia. They're moving out to Canyon Country. They're moving out to Ventura County. Why? Because that's where they could find housing, safe communities, slightly better schools. And so he was right.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
And he's talking about the people that can least afford it are the people that are going to be commuting the most because they have to go out to find the affordable housing and then... when jobs are in central Los Angeles or in the more urban areas, they got to do that. So this is, you know what this is?

This is another reason why Gavin, is this going to be a target, target, target, target during the primaries? Because you know what I would do if I was running against him and I was Josh Shapiro?

So, a very large gift like this from a foreign government, you know, these are the reasons... that businesses have rules on gifts. We don't let our salespeople, any company that I've worked for or with Pat and before, you can't take a gift more than dinner. Ja. Ja. Ja. So, that's how bribes happen. They give gifts.

Did you know that every gift given to the president gets recorded and there's like a cultural office? Most of the gifts are cultural in nature. You know, a gold plate from India that was like almost 200 years old. And it goes in and they end up at the Smithsonian of all these gifts that were given. But you give a gift like that, it just opens up all sorts of discussions on...

Oh, that's kind of weird. You can't do that. So I think when you, a big gift like this, unless he wants to say, that's very, very nice of you, we'll put it over here and everybody will use it. Appreciate it. You know, that's one side, but it's just, why are they giving it? Qatar is a nation of 3 million people. And for all of you sports fans out there that,
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
The global soccer fans feel that Qatar pulled off the largest bribe and rigged selection process in sports history when it gave this mega maniac in 2010 billions of dollars of personal wealth through the back door that they still don't know where it is and they won World Cup 2022. Not Italy, not Brazil. Countries with massive soccer heritage and World Cups on the shelf.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
France, Italy, Germany, UK, even US. Qatar wins the World Cup and it gets played at a time of year where everybody's worried about the athletes. So, Qatar is known to be, and by the way, and now Qatar has got problems with its neighbors. You're off the list, you're off the list, you're off the list, you're off the list, with its Arab neighbors. It's kind of weird.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
So, Qatar has always had this reputation, and now the gift this big, I don't know. You know, if I was president, I don't think I would accept it.

Meine echten Gedanken über diesen Ort sind wie folgt. Das Wort, das mir aufmerksam wird, ist voraussichtlich. Es gibt Orte, zum Beispiel im Norden von L.A., das Diamant-Distrikt und die kleine Gemeinschaft rund um es. Es ist voraussichtlich jüdisch. Aber sie haben keine eigenen Regeln. Es sind unsere Regeln. Und sie müssen mit den Normen der Gesellschaft abhängen. Du hast Boise, Idaho.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
Das wollen sie im Grunde ein Konsulat bauen. Ein Konsulat ist wie wenn du ein Gebäude hast, du hast ein Büro und du klingelst und du machst all diese Dinge dazu. Und es ist im Grunde diese kleine, oder Embassy, richtig? Und es ist nur dein Land. Also du könntest eine US-Embassy in Äthiopien haben.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
Und wenn du deinen Passwort verlierst, musst du zur US-Embassy kommen, weil es als US-Frohland bezeichnet ist, wenn du reinmachst. So, it appears that they're attempting to build a community with like embassy-type privileges. They're going to have their own courts, their own schools and stuff. Sorry, we saw what happened in England when radical clerics
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
in iconoclastic communities radicalize young men and we have the subway bombings, the tube bombings in England. No, we can't do that. So when they cross the line like that and it's not merely a community that is predominantly this, predominantly that, I'll show you streets in Granada Hills that were predominantly Armenian. A couple generations come and go, right?
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
The son buys a house down the street, mom and dad lived over here. It's predominant, but you are in the U.S., under U.S. laws, and you're not stepping over lines. This concerns me, because they want to build, by their own words, a city and a community with embassy-like privileges to run their own... Okay, so now.

Our constitution would not prevent them from peacefully operating their own mosque. However, if we find out that you're basically operating like the Black Panthers and you were training people for no good, guess what? We step in and we say, sorry, that's not going to happen.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
No, I think the example you can look at is Northern England. They had mosques and they built around communities and those mosques had radical clerics. Those clerics were training young men and we saw what they did. We have an example. We have a case study. We can see it. We can see how things go along.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
And it's kind of funny that Governor Abbott's worried about, oh, and they may have been illegally operating.

Well, first of all, what have I always been saying, Vinny? No math. Tom, if you said anything with math, I was going to leave. No, no, no. The market goes up and down by sentiment, right? People get a little worried about the future or they get optimistic about the future. The market goes up and down. That's what's going on. And so the market jumped because it liked the fact that now... Ja.

We go back here to China. This is 90 days. So the US has apparently seen enough or heard enough that that they're going to do it. And this is they're going to put this pause in place to put something together. And what Scott Besson, he was saying the consensus from both delegation is neither side, you know, wants long term trouble. And so that's the right thing to say in front of the microphone.

I want to see the terms and conditions. I want to see what happens.

But the market sentiment is good and it also means that Walmart and others that were holding the prices level and not raising them on the consumer, they're now going to get a little relief on their stock price because their costs won't be going up because they won't pay the tariff that they said they were going to pocket and just say, I'll eat it. and put it out. So this is good for the market.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
This was good in the short term. Good for the consumer in the short term. And good for companies that were going to have it. But... I think China caved. I think China caved. I'll tell you why. Because they've been doing little things behind the scenes. Such as, I brought up The one that I finally found people talking about, the chemical that is in plastic that becomes ethylene.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
that we talked about, we go, ethene, ethene, I think it's called, and it gets processed, and it makes ethylene, which leads to polyethylene, and that's plastic. And the Chinese dropped the tariff from like 145 to zero, because they said, yeah, we need to make plastic, and they can't get that.
PBD Podcast
China Tariff Deal & Macron BUSTED On Video? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 585
I think... You think China caved? I think, well, I think China caved, but I'll say, I also think that we... Ich glaube, wir haben ein bisschen Strategie dazu gegeben, um allen ein bisschen einen Break zu geben. Okay, Adam, deine Gedanken? Also, wer braucht mehr?

Thoughts, Tom? So when you look at everything from Bitcoin to the market, markets move based on facts plus future sentiment. Facts, earnings reports, unemployment reports, the amount of billions that have actually gone into... Bitcoin in a given week. Those are facts. Then we have sentiment, the future sentiment. What do we think about the future?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Well, right now, since November, the sentiment on consumers has been razor thin. What do we know? Because credit cards went up to $1.3 trillion balance and BNPL delinquencies jumped up. So everybody goes, oh, crap, it doesn't look like the consumer is going to be spending much in Q1. They're tapped out. So that was a forward sentiment people concerned about.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And then comes this waves of sentiment on the tariffs. Some of the tariffs were small. And as I was saying, hey, remember, they're tactics, not taxes. Well, some of these tactics are taking a while to kick in.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Canada stepped up and threw some tariffs at China, and China said, oh, you small child, and threw 100% tariffs back at Canada, showing that that's an unequal fight, because China is going to say, get off my lawn with your little dog, right? That's what China is telling Canada. So right now we have a big shift in sentiment. So the forward sentiment, PBD, the market is concerned.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Right now, there is less of a percent of investor dollars in MAG-7 than there was five months ago. So the MAG-7, remember it was so overweight, everybody was buying the MAG-7 individually led by NVIDIA and then also buying MAG-7 ETFs that were dedicated to them that were so hot in 2023. Well, all of that is pulled back and there's a shift going.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
in sentiment and investment right now, led by, check this out, I looked up last night, there is now the survey of governors thinking there's a 50-50 chance of a rate cut in May. But we don't have unemployment figures. We don't have GDP figures. We don't have anything yet that normally would make Jerome Powell, who two weeks ago said, I don't think there's going to be cuts.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think it's going to be kind of level for a while. We're going to let this shake out. Well, now the sentiment marker on interest rates is even 50-50 for a cut in May, thinking that we're going to get bad news in mid-April in five weeks when we get first quarter reports. But right now, this is sentiment. And the sentiment was led yesterday by one simple interview.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Donald Trump saying, I don't rule out a recession. When he said those words yesterday, what he's saying is, and Howard Lutnick, our secretary of commerce, ran to the microphone and said, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I don't think there's going to be a recession at all. I don't think so at all.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Yeah, he's trying to calm them up.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think Lutnik was on the weekend, and it was Trump's interview on Monday.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So what Lutnik is saying, the minute everybody else's blinks on tariffs, the markets are going to shift. Second quarter, third quarter, you're going to see huge economic growth. And for every trillion that we get of new growth, it's 1% of GDP.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
That's Lutnik, our Secretary of Commerce, saying it's ugly right now, but soon as the world blinks on tariffs, the market's just going to flip back the other way.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
There's an important point there. If you take out the government layoffs and look at the layoffs in American industry, American retail or wherever, the layoffs are actually at par, right? The economy hasn't really reacted yet. Nothing major has happened. But what it's looking at is the government layoffs that came from Doge going in and changing agencies.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Now, those are real consumers with real paychecks that are now really not going to be working. Some of those are early retirement. But we have to be careful when we look at it as macro because the economy hasn't reacted in any of the industrial sectors. Chips isn't down because Taiwan's been invaded. You know what I mean? Nothing like that has happened.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
These are people coming out of government jobs, but their paychecks are no longer buying things.

Freaking genius economist.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let her smile. There are technical recessions and there are structural recessions. A technical recession is where you look at all the numbers, and yes, it's here. Those you can relate to a power failure. Lights go off. Oh, gosh. But as soon as the city gets power back on... Everybody's back to normal because the lights are back on. That's a technical recession.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And I think that's what we're looking at here. Maybe a structural recession is like you lose the auto industry for seven years to Japan who kicks your ass and people are laid off and have nowhere to go. Like in the 1980s, you're saying? Correct. Those are structural. Now we have a structure problem with this. I think that this is more likely, if it happens, be more like a technical recession.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And I think the bounce back is going to be as fast as we've seen here because it's driven by sentiment.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Well, first of all, it's on Sunday and she's at a political rally, which, you know, we have faced the nation over here and over in Mexico. It's usually called face the bullets. So she's out there screaming, talking about how, oh, well, we're not going to do this because we've got these we have these agreements where we don't have reciprocal tariffs. She's trying to calm her own economy.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Don't worry about it. He's not going to do it. We've got these two treaties that are already in place. And she says, and by the way, the tariffs he's talking about, those are different tariffs because he's upset about the border and drugs. Don't worry about it. It'll be OK. She is trying to calm her economy and her stock market, which is going to open on Monday morning on a weekend rally.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And she is actually not saying anything. Notice that she doesn't say anything. anything negative about trump she merely says everything is going to be okay that's what she's doing and so what we have here she is trying to spin because her back's up against a wall yeah and adam go for it well i think you know i'm trying to get into trump's mind because
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Well, the issue here is we've never... under Biden. We were never willing to have anything that we did except by hitting their proxies, right? Like their proxies were camped out in Syria. Bonk, right? Okay. If your proxies are camped out with the Hezbollah in Syria, we're going to drop cruises on you. And we did. And we did. What he's talking about, you better be ready for it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Now the cruises fly into their airspace, and there's five locations that are supposedly the research labs, and we know exactly where they are. And basically, that would seriously interrupt their nuclear program. Now, is he willing to do that? What we were just talking about, you got to be willing to make good on the threat.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Because what he's talking about, if we send the high-impact cruise missiles over there and we hit those five locations, it says, I told you not to make nukes. You're up in your bedroom making nukes. Your dad and I told you, don't do that. And we mess the place up. We have to be willing to do that. And if we're not willing to do that, it's just an idle threat.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Because that, if you read all the CIA threat assessments and stuff, those five locations is what... Iran wants to protect it.

I'm curious about Tom Cotton running so quick to the microphone you see three hours ago, and he put a very comprehensive tweet out. It said, I did not talk to the president. I did not release the files. I did not involve anybody. It was a fairly long tweet.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I would have explained that I've never spoken to President Trump or his associates or administration officials about the files, comma, never objective to the appointment of any person because of the files, comma, and have complete faith that Tulsi Gabbard, John Ratcliffe, Pam Bondi, Kash Patel and other officials will release the files as appropriate in accordance with President Trump's directive.

S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think he's a crusader. I think RFK Jr. feels to me like a true crusader. Which means what? I don't think he could be bought like that.
PBD Podcast

What was your style? Mine was absolutely. But I used to say it when Amy and I would do our polling things, I would say, hey, look. I don't have an opinion on the poll, but I have strong opinions about Tom the voter. I was all about all the wokeness that had infected companies, that affected schools, potentially infect my daughter and her admissions. And the border, number one.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And I had those right together. So that's two.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And there wasn't a number three. The economy was like number four and a half for me.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
No, because those were so intense, you know what I'm saying?

S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Doesn't it make you believe that there is a shadow government? It makes you believe that there is the shadow government underneath. And remember, Tucker, we went up to Maine, the mosquito capital of Earth, apparently. Remember we were up there? Oh, my gosh. Well, we were up there in the same cabin in there. Great conversation with him. Great dinner.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And he made some comments to us at dinner that he's also repeated since then on other people's podcasts that he says, you know, Congress is scared to death. You talk to the average congressperson, they are scared to death of what? The intelligence communities.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Absolutely scared to death that when something comes up, the invisible hand reaches out, they're trying to call a shot and the shot gets pulled back. And this is Tucker who would know.

All right, let's go to the next story. If Chuck Schumer's my good friend, I'm taking him hunting, and I'm going to be Dick Cheney. Dick Cheney.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So there's a couple of things here that I think create lies or create spurious data. This is a broad poll of Americans done by Gallup, broad poll. And in broad polls, you have a lot of perceptions that are in the polls, and you have a lot of the informed that are in the polls, and you have the very informed. So look at that, the very informed, the informed, and then those that have a perception.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
They're not fully informed. And with the mainstream media and what's been going on on college campuses and everything in America with this pro-Palestinian bent that does not represent broad America but does show up as broad media from the MSM, guess what you get? You get a movement. And Adam pointed something out in the numbers. Absolutely correct. This is only a move from 51 to 46.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
This is not a cataclysmic market crash. This is nothing. And I think what we have here is a broad poll shows that the cumulative effect of the Palestinian coverage and our mainstream media has in fact moved the polls.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Because how could any informed person take a look at the condition of the hostages that came back and look at these emaciated, abused people and tell me that you're sympathetic to the captors? The answer is you wouldn't be. How can you be? And so that's kind of the way I see this here. You know, this is a small movement making a big headline. There, like this.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Look at this and tell me, how are you not sympathetic to these men who were captive? And look how they were treated. And look at the results. This is horrible.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Oh, man. Okay, Tom, you're married. Your thoughts on this? This is out of line. This is out of line. We all know what that is. All guys that have been out there around other guys and there's dogs to be around. You got to be careful because they do that kind of thing. And I really would have been very, very upset. That was a intentional move.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And that is the grabby Biden that we've seen in a creepy way around people. And you see Jill lean in. So, you know, Trump said something. But me, I would have stepped between her and my wife and just said, take a step back, dude. Because this is kind of a formal thing. I would have been really pissed off. Adam, thoughts?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
This is triple jump, and it's set up for women. This is set up for women.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I put 80% on the parents.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I'm with him. I put 70-80% on the parents on the enabling side. And then I put 30% on some sort of trauma or crisis. We start questioning himself. And there's the outcome, America. There's the outcome where we now think feelings are okay. Your feelings, whatever feelings you have. So we're going to ratify your feelings and saying you're okay.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
But there's a hell of a jump, no pun intended, from your feelings are okay and trying to, you know, make somebody not feel bad, which is not the way to handle these things, and then say, oh, and you also want to do other things now that you feel this way? Well, certainly I don't want you to feel bad, so I'm going to let you do them. Wait a minute.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Now you've discriminated against a whole group of people. Yeah, I put it right into your question. I'm 70% parents, 30%. There's some sort of a crisis or something caused that individual.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
By which women, though? Which women?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Well, I split it in half. And the first thing, we were talking about the contract. You know what? Stephen A. just did something. First guy through the wall usually takes a lot of heat when you create a precedent. And this is the future of media contracts. In the old days, he would have had an ESPN contract to do ESPN things, and he could not have gone beyond that realm of ESPN.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
This way, he gets to be who he is as a personality. He has a voice, he's got talent, and that talent can be spread in different ways. And now this contract values him at ESPN and gives him the ability to do those things. Congratulations to Stephen A. And just remember, first guys through the wall get the bloodiest, and that was your job right now, but a lot of people are going to follow you.
PBD Podcast

Now, in terms of the rest, I don't know any further history with Stephen A. and LeBron. But it is, but suffice to say, they know each other. They've had interviews together. They've had a lot of conversations together. They probably text together. And then with all of that background, maybe they're not super buddies, but there's a background there. This is Stephen A's, this is Stephen A's sports.

He's an expert on this. He comes over to him and really gets in his grill. And as you said, kind of sunned him. He sunned him. And I'll have to say this, you know, LeBron, you got to look at what is the reality of the draft pick.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
let's all step back and take the name off the jersey how does that draft pick working out against nba competition it looks like a draft pick and adam i think you would agree hey that particular draft pick clearly a talent but maybe it's going to spend some summer in in in the g league yeah right maybe we're going to have some things here and if that would get said now on the bronze of

S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Of course you're going to be upset as a father if things are like this because he's probably trying to protect him from the avalanche of stuff that LeBron knows the media can bring on you. But I don't recall Stephen A. going after Bronny the way people sometimes go after you on sports talk shows. I don't recall that kind of heat. And so, yeah, it was a father.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think that's given LeBron a little bit of an out there because nobody came down on LeBron and nobody came down on Bronny with a lot of heat. And I think that's what gets lost in the middle of this. I think it's really unfortunate that Stephen A's got this little controversy in the middle of a week where we should be looking at what did he just do for media talent going forward?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559

Well, first of all, it's going to be fun to watch Canadian politics all this year because the reason this guy, by the way, this guy was not elected by the people. He was elected by 89.5% of the Liberal Party that said, you're our guy because they're still in power.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And so when when Fidel Castro's son resigns as prime minister and suddenly allegedly I went there and then you have this guy gets elected. Eighty nine point five percent of his party. This would be like Nancy Pelosi resigning as speaker because she had an illness or just resigned for for controversy. And then, well, that doesn't change the fact that the Dems would still be in power.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So they would elect a new speaker. Yeah. Well, now October's coming and October's coming. We're going to see this guy face off against probably, you know, Pierre Poliver. So that's when the next big roundup is going to happen is the national election is going to happen. But now this now what Mark has had, this guy's a real globalist. He's Bank of England.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
There are people even in Canada that are really worried about this guy on a far deeper level than that he's really not Canada. He's really a hyper-liberal globalist. And we're going to see the parlor game play out this summer with tariffs and things that are going on.

And by the way, they just stood on their little Canadian soapbox, the population of California that all lives within 100 miles, excuse me, 89% of them live within 100 miles of the U.S. border, right there on the border, mainly Vancouver, Montreal, and Toronto. And now he's your guy, but there's a lot that's going to go on this summer, and then there'll be a big election in October.

And right now their biggest issue is they thought, with that size of country I just described, that they could put a finger in China's eye that came back with heavy tariffs back the other way.

Well, he supposedly is holding his vote for the CR, the continuing resolution. And Trump and Howard Letnick are both pushing people to vote on the continuing resolution. And what's a continuing resolution? Well, a continuing resolution, it'll be abbreviated CR. You see it all over in Twitter space.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
It's basically a resolution that says, okay, we're going to put this much money over here, and we're going to be able to continue government operating. We'll be able to continue these things going on, and we're going to continue this until we get to the big bill. And so a continuing resolution is a resolution to continue...
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
with these spending over here while we negotiate maybe a larger bill or we get to the end of the legislative session and apparently thomas massey and others and there's a few things going on in here are like no no no no no no i'm not going to automatically vote on a continuing resolution because i want to know what's in it why don't we speed up the vote on the bigger
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And I won't do the impersonation that Adam does, the big, beautiful spending bill that they've been talking about. And so that's what's going on. And apparently there were talks behind closed doors or something happened. And, you know, Trump, we saw his tweet this morning. He was very aggravated and was very, very direct about it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And Thomas Massey was equally direct in the other way, saying, OK, threaten me with my election. Gosh, you know, the last couple people done that haven't broken through 25% of the vote. I've done okay, and I feel confident in my own skin.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Massey is known for being a proponent of the single-issue resolution or the single-issue bill. It's like, if you call it a COVID bill, then the only thing that should be in here is COVID. Which I kind of respect.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Well, I agree with that, and I feel like this is a three-level chess game. Level one is the egos of the two men involved, Elon Musk and Sam Altman. And they go back, and they've been banging back and forth quite a bit. The second level of this is Altman desperately needs fuel, big stacks of capital, and they're out there trying to raise a lot of it. A $40 billion raise? Yes.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
That's a big they're trying to raise that much money. Picture it this way. They're like trying to raise three companies that are going to basically be capital that's put into open AI at a value of 300 billion. Well, valuations are determined by market forces and by investor forces. And so what he does, he comes out with this at one third the value that. Altman's going out for.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
So Altman's going out for a $300 billion valuation. He comes out at one-third of that at 97.4%. And he's using the law of odd numbers. If he comes out and says 80%, it's just a different thing. When he comes out and says, no, no, no, 97.4%. He comes out with an odd number.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
This is the second level of the chess game, complicates Altman's fundraising, and there's also the nonprofit part of it, as Trump's lawyer correctly pointed out, that there's that. And then the higher level thing is, yeah, there's a reason why Musk has talked about making humans interplanetary. There's a reason because he really believes that AGI, artificial general intelligence,
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
which is, you know, AI solving little problems for us, doing things for us, kind of mimicking us or being human-like, versus ASI, which is almost like the opening scene of Terminator 2, when it says, what did it say? What was the name of the computer? Skynet. Skynet.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Skynet became sentient on December 15th at this thing, and so suddenly is thinking beyond humans, ahead of humans, and there you have that web. So this is a three-level chess game here where he's interfering. He's riffing on his buddy, his ex-buddy, Sam. He's interfering with the financing because he wants to interfere with the financing because he wants to interfere with the structures.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
And then also he's playing this game five moves ahead, and he's concerned about this AGI-ASI thing. And if you listen to him at smaller talks, this is exactly what Musk is talking about. So there's a huge underbelly to this thing. This is just a little bit of an iceberg showing up above. water. There's a big thing underneath.

I think you're playing with headlines. You need to look at numbers, Adam. I mean, 47 percent of people, the approval rating is 47 percent, which is a high watermark for presidents at this time as people are trying to figure out, OK, what's the tax policy going to be? Are we going to get the secretaries all in place so we can have hard policy decisions coming out?

Well, guess what? Why have they been moving? They have been moving because of long-term things that have been affecting California homeowners and the insurance industry. Number one, we can go back to all kinds of fires and everything that have happened, but the terrible consequence to human life and property. PG&E. Ancient systems given a free pass by the California government to avoid suits.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
They were given a pass to avoid suits with their ancient transmission lines, which were arcing and have demonstrably started some of the wildfires over the last 15 years. Step one. Step two. Forest has not been managed because California running a deficit has not been putting money into that. No, they've got billions of dollars missing for.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
you know, homeless or immigration that they can't tell you where it went, but they don't have money to manage the forest. I guarantee you the underwriters have seen this. Then you have the rebuild costs thanks to inflation. And finally, you know, and even worse, you have a thing that's called over indexing where you as an insurance company go, you know what? By the way, this is Allstate.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
State Farm, you can go back and look at the articles. They had these three vice presidents I read about that from New Orleans to Mobile, Alabama, they had achieved just an incredible management of their sales force, and they had an amazing market share of coastal communities from Mobile, Alabama to New Orleans. And when Hurricane Katrina came through, Guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
State Farm, with all of that market share, was over-indexed. And so they took more of the loss and more of the devastation because they're paying out the insurance. They sold an insurance policy, and now they've got to pay it out as proper. Well, Allstate was finding out in California.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
But it's finding out through... And, by the way, the underfunding of fire departments and reservoir systems, all of those come together. And if you don't think... that the underwriters inside Allstate understood what was going around from a business standpoint. Everything I've described is business, not headlines, not political. PG&E was business. Managing the forestry areas, business.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Permitting on where you could build new houses was all business. And guess what? We saw the pictures that were taken by the news helicopters of tons of fire trucks sitting in these, they called them boneyards, where they needed service and repair before they could put back into service. And underfunding of that. They understood all of it, and this is exactly the outcome of it.

And when you hear the word FEMA, ladies and gentlemen, that is you hear FEMA. That is your tax dollars leaving Washington, going to an area of devastation. And it's helping fellow citizens like yours, which is a good thing. But it shouldn't be going there and it shouldn't be happening.

Tom? Well, married to a teacher who taught in LA Unified as a union teacher before she got fed up and went to private schools. So I know of what I speak, and I've raised now two girls that have come through this, and I've done a lot of research on it. And there are two changes that would need to be banked. And the first is, Merit-based accountability for teachers.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Teachers need to be evaluated for their merit and their abilities like anybody else, and the ones that have poor attitudes or not abilities are no longer teachers. Simple. The union uses tenure to block the merit-based evaluation of the teachers.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Correct. On the effectiveness of the teachers. Exactly. Completely. That's point one. And number two is there's a lot of stats that are out there that talk about the number of dollars per pupil. But they don't talk about is the actual impact dollars per pupil. In other words, they're funding million-dollar DEI programs, say, at a national level. Or a school board is actually funding.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
funding um creation of alternative uh textbooks and ngos are getting that money but then when you take okay there's 100 students here divided by 100 million oh my gosh that's a million per student that's not what actually gets the student you have to look at the teacher salary and the actual investment in the school and you'll find that and so number one you got to
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Break the union, or if you keep the union because you can't move it, you've got to have merit-based teaching in place, number one. And number two, you then have to go back and not worry about the woke and DEI programs at the school boards and go back to simple, hey—
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
We need to elevate the capabilities of these students as referenced by the national test scores and make the school boards accountable to the macro test scores. If the school boards are accountable to macro test scores and the teachers are accountable to being measured on their merit and effectiveness, those two things will move it forward in America. But you also need a third thing.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
And people like to talk about it, but there is a third thing out there, which is parental impact and how people parent and the value that people put on ensuring that their kids are at school and how early you give them a cell phone and what you make them do.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
You don't have to have a lot of money to help them focus and to put guardrails around them of what they do after school hours in terms of just studying and doing basic homework. So there has to be participation from the parents. And if those three points were pushed on a national level, all of this improves. And by the way, guess what I haven't even mentioned.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Yeah, because there's a lot of things that have been going on that he's been like the insurance and stuff we talked about. Well, guess what? UCLA and UC Berkeley were sued as part of a class act that claims UC. Now, remember, UC, it's a UC system. We're not talking Stanford. We're not talking USC. Why is that important? Because those are private schools.

We're talking the UC system, your tax dollars. UCLA, UC Berkeley, and they were specifically excluding students Wait for it. Caucasians and Asians from their admission quotas. There you go.

PBD Podcast

And yet for the UC system, yet you're excluding part of the citizens that are paying taxes for that. You know, sorry, that doesn't work.

And you would have a series of names, usually not more than four or five, but Obama and Blinken were constantly on that list. So I think we've seen Obama's third term. So, okay, so that is just historical reality when we look back at what really happened. This third term, I think what people are saying is, we are really excited that the right guy is in here, as far as we're concerned.

Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
We're really excited about what he's doing, and... He's already served one term. Wouldn't it be great if he could serve three? And I think that's what's going on. And there's a lot of cannon fodder out there for that. And people are pushing it.

Both Europe and the United States should move ideally, in my view, to a zero tariff situation, effectively creating a free trade zone between Europe and North America. And.

I don't think things are over yet. And I think that China is being what people don't realize. They are fighting a four sided war. Now, the big giant side is these tariffs. They're also they're also interfering with the TikTok deal. And they're saying, oh, it's because the tariffs. No, it's not. You want that data and you want that path to power. And look, you see what's going on there.

Panama's auditor are saying that C.K. Hutchinson owes money. And there's an audit. So guess what? U.S. pressure on Panama? Declare them in default and take the ports. You watch. There is an angle there administratively that China would flip out. But now they're trying to protect the port deal. They are trying to manipulate C.K. Hutchinson on the port deal because that's a path to power.
PBD Podcast

So that's the second. And the third one is any deal they make, you have to remember they've never allowed their currency, help me here, Brandon, to float with all the rest of the currencies on the world. The dollar, the currencies, there is one piece of free trade internationally. Everybody's currency floats with each other in terms of relative value, correct? Yes. except one big one.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
There are some little ones, but big one, and that is the renminbi. And that's where China refuses to let it flow and manipulates the value of its China and lies to its own banks about how much they're printing in the background. They don't have a Fed, but they have a balance sheet, and they lie about it. Way more than us. So they are stuck on tariffs, big. They are stuck on currency.

They're trying to hold power with TikTok, and they're trying to hold power with the ports. And I think that it's a very busy time. They are big, and they are the one we have to talk to. But I like the fact that there is multiple fronts that Trump is pushing on against them.

Well, I'm going to say something that's going to surprise you. You know, it's been—we're coming nine years since he's been in office. And in the election, it showed that he doesn't have a lot of mojo with the voting blocs. He actually discovered how little he had and how it had gone away. And he was countered in situations that you would never have imagined him being countered.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And it's been a long time. Since since he was inaugurating and gave hope to every person in America, regardless of your color, because on that moment, regardless of whether you agreed with this politics, you could say that it doesn't matter where you're from or what color you are. You could be president United States. The same thing when Thurgood Marshall became Supreme Court justice.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
That was an important moment. After the eight years of his policies, it was like, oh, man, that was hard to take. Now it's been almost nine years that he's gone. And it doesn't surprise me because what is the hardest thing to do? Why did Michael Schumacher come back from retirement? Why do athletes come back for another two years? Why do they take another one-year contract?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Because sometimes it's hard to say goodbye, and sometimes it's hard to go to retirement. Are you going to sing? Maybe I could sing. I don't want to sing. 5,000 on Super Chat and I don't sing. No, maybe that's it. And so now you're at a situation. It doesn't surprise me that after the Hillary member, he was he was standing way off to the left and behind the trees.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And just when Hillary win her campaign, there was no love there. Remember that there is absolutely no love between the Clinton camps and the Obama camps. And then four years later, Biden's. And he's trying to influence the open convention and discovering how much little power he had. And so it doesn't surprise me now to see that what was going on behind the curtain.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And it also doesn't surprise me to see how the Clintons, Bidens and the DNC worked to rebuild in 2016. And you know what they did?

they messed with Bernie Sanders in South Carolina. And now we can see behind that that Bernie had a point that he was heading for a nomination probably, but there were invisible hands that messed with him. So you want to talk about the guys that are against democracy? It's them. But it's like...

I think for Barack Obama, it is hard to go off into retirement and to really accept the fact that you don't have the athletic skills you once had and you've got to hang up the cleats. Then he could be such a statesman right now, but now you see behind the curtain that this was there. Man, that's tough. I imagine it's tough for him. You said it's like the worst year he had.

I think Mark really gave a tangled up answer there. And I think what was interesting is, oh, if you don't like it, you can forfeit. I think that's really terrible. We've seen the stronger athletes. I don't think I'm ready to see men spike volleyballs and knock my daughter unconscious. I don't think I'm ready today. I don't think I'll be ready in 10 years. I don't think I'll ever be ready for that.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And I and I think what Mark I don't know what he was trying to say. He seems like he had a little tangled up around his around the point, because I think that there is a common sense element to this. And it's been said by many people. They said, look, you know, we spend all of this time. on steroid detection and blood doping detection in the Olympics.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And there were East German, back when there was two Germanys, power lifters that were blood doping for the Olympics. And we spend all this time, how do we stop this injustice? How do we find out about these steroids in the Olympics? How do we level the playing field?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Remember, that was the whole argument about steroids and what we got to do and the World Doping Association, what it had to do because it's so unfair. You know, here you have countries like the United States and East Germany with these big budgets and this guy from Cameroon that's trained all of his life and is losing out to a guy who's blood doping. That's not fair. What happened to that?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Where did that go? Now you're all the way to Mark Cuban saying, well, if you don't like it, you can forfeit. So you could just lose. So Riley Gaines could have said, well, I'm not going to get in the pool. I'm just going to forfeit. Really? It's just I don't think people are ready for that. I don't think people are ready for that.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
I think people are ready for fairness, and I think Mark gave a really tangled-up answer there. People are ready for fairness. People are ready to step back and say, wait a minute, that's what people are ready for. It's not like, well, if we just wait long enough, we'll sacrifice our daughters to men in sports. No.
PBD Podcast

to the rule of law. We as a nation and a court of law should be better than this. And we will know, too, in this close five to four margin on the Supreme Court, conservative leading justice Amy Coney Barrett actually joined the three liberal leading justices in dissenting in the opinion. Anna?

Yeah, we do not know when he's coming home. Look, that case has gotten national attention.

So first of all, I think we're seeing some of the true colors of Amy Coney Barrett. Vinny has talked about this. But I think what we ought to do, let's look at this somewhat objectively. And what Justice Sotomayor said, I think we look at that. It says each – and also what Tom Dempsey, the correspondent, said, each person has to have their day in court. Look –

PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And so when you see a 5-4 decision here, what I'm really seeing is Comey Barrett and Sotomayor saying, hey, we got to get the rule of law right. And then we got other liberal justice that just don't want Trump to do anything. So they'll vote no on whatever. But remember, this law goes back to, help me out, 1789 is when this law was started regarding foreign combatants.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And we are seeing new levels of foreign combatants. And I believe the Trump administration is correctly categorizing these people as foreign combatants. And so if that's the way it's going to be, then you're going to have an expedited ride home because you're causing issues here. But I also think, Vinny, you probably got an opinion on this.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572

where you go to, like, an Amex office or even just a store, and it tells you what the trading rates are to euro and dollar, they turned those off because it was fluctuating so wildly, they turned them off.

PBD Podcast

I do not want to get baited into armed conflict with Iran. I think there's people and hawks, war hawks in the United States that would want us to because it's good for the economy. Money flows into a lot of companies, blah, blah, blah. But it's deficit spending. And I just I don't think we want to be in conflict. an armed conflict with Iran. They don't scare me as an adversary.

Tom, what do you think about this? Well, I think whenever you have an equation like this, and thank you for doing the research. That's good. So the number of hours was 50 years ago, right, was 20 hours to buy one share of S&P. Today with S&P at, what, 520 or 490 or whatever we are floating around right now, takes 170 hours. So that's 8.5x, right? Right.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
What was the P-E ratio of the S&P going back then? It's usually in the ballpark of, what, 20 to 30? Okay. Well, actually, under Jimmy Carter, it was 7 to 9, and under Ronald Reagan, it was 10 to 13. That was the P.E. ratio, if we want to go back to that same time. In January, the P.E. was 29, and right now the P.E., and I'm saying of the S&P, is 24. So...

Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Wages is the problem because it's 8.5x in a number of hours, but the PE ratio is barely 3x and actually 2x if you just go from Reagan from like 10 to 13, that would be 20 to 26. Well, right now it's 24 and it was 29 beginning of this year. You go back to 2016, it was 22, 24, 25, the three years going into COVID. Yeah. So I think you make a point, but it's not that the market is too expensive.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
It's that over all that time, wage growth for the middle class did not keep up. And as a result, an 8.5 difference in the middle class number of hours when the P.E. ratio is really only doubled plus.

Well, right now, my concern is around transition of power and that there are people with desire and means to interrupt that. But I sit there and I look at it, and you really, if you think about it logically, you know, if a crazy act, you know, incapacitates or assassinates Trump, J.D. Vance is the VP-elect.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And so I worry about disrupting the transition of power, but I don't believe that a single – Act can interrupt, you know, the elected will of the people. You have to go like five steps on the other side. Oh, OK, well, you know, well, you know, you're gone. So guess what? Biden's still going to be president. He's going to resign. Kamala's president.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I worry about the interruption from third party actors because I don't worry about. The transition of power, I worry about the orderly transition of power, if that makes sense. That's what I worry about. Is it going to be orderly? Because I believe the will of the people are done.

And if you do something and you just flip the switch the other way and say, OK, now we're going to have this different government and stuff because we did this, America is going to go berserk.

So I look at three things that I – When I scan, my threat matrix goes to three things. Cyber attacks, because I do not think that we are as secure as we think we are. An example, some of the greatest security we have out there is around our power grid and air travel. And yet we had a failure by a software update, remember that, that took down the travel infrastructure for six hours?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
That's exactly right, that they were doing an update. And so something as simple—and it is simple as an update—created, showed the vulnerability, and it took all day for this system, that system, this system, for all of the airports and airlines to get back up. So I think about cyber attacks, very real. The second thing I think about is it only takes one—
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
nut and a tactical nuke to create the dirty bomb. And I once read a CIA threat thing that said that they always felt that the dirty bomb was more dangerous than Putin saying, I'm launching a missile and I'm going to I'm going to take out a city. I'm going to you know what? Damn it. I'm going to take out half of Kiev. Here it comes.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
That that probability is very, very low, that that's part of the Cold War. I have more nukes than you kind of a checkmate, perpetual. with the mutually assured destruction if you actually play that game. But the dirty bomb guys I do worry about. So I worry about news that there may be a semi-depleted plutonium bomb that if set off won't be a nuclear load but be dirty. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
So I do worry about a lone wolf actor. or a lunatic independent state doing something like that. And then the third thing I worry about is a cousin to the cyber attack. Our power grid is not about the creation of power. It's about the systems that control the power. And so you could take down our power grid That will wreak havoc because you have everything from water pumping stations.

What happens if they get hacked and a bad actor is now turning all these self-driving taxis into suicide taxis? And suddenly they're driving them into crowds of people or driving them onto sidewalks. That's what you're talking about.

So, you know, what's really interesting here is that I don't know, Skip. I don't know anything about this. I just sit back as a casual observer. And there was a book that broke in 2000, 2000. I think it was right after Y2K. I think it was called the ESPN, the unofficial history, uncensored, uncensored history or something.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
But this book, I want to say the guy, I don't remember the guy's name, but all of this stuff was in there about it. There it is. Uncensored history. Michael Freeman. There was stuff in here about Chris Berman. There was stuff in here about Mike Trico.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
He published a document in here where Mike Trico got suspended for three months because not one, not two, but three interns had accused Mike Trico of forcing himself on them. And so it just shows that, you know, in certain... Parts of entertainment and sports broadcasting has been one of them.

Things happen and people there's like almost like a culture of hookup or something because it's not one thing. I mean, this was the whole history of ESPN. There's a lot of guys really upset about this. There were guys that were married that were like they didn't want their kids. Their wives knowing things about what the stuff that's going on because they had nothing to do with it.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
There is in there is one who's the ESPN anchor was like an expert on hockey, but he actually drowned in his own pool. It was truly an accidental death. But anyway, he his wife was like very upset that all the stuff was going on. And he was known as a guy who was very clean. And when we're done shooting, thank you. Go go home. He was not a party or anything like that.

But the whole thing around sports, there always seems to be this, you know, I don't want to call it this kind of boys will be boys and things going on and things with them, you know, in broadcasting. By the way, Hollywood's got its own problems, but in sports broadcasting, dating back and, you know.

You know, these things have been reported a lot, and it's easy to say that, and then you have a bunch of people, including Stephen A., saying, this doesn't feel like Skip.

Justin Trudeau has been in power for a decade and everything went downhill in after covid. That's when it happened. The policies he took and the impugns that were on the economy and on the people of Canada. It all started there with the covid policies. If you go take a look at the approval. OK, OK. The disapproval rate. Oh, wow. In 2019, he wins the election.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And then all of a sudden, COVID happens right after that. And here goes the disapproval rating. Look at it. Look at that. And when it's time for the recovery of the economy, it's getting 74%. That's correct. That's correct. And by the way, right before our election, our election, November of 2024, in Montreal, there was a seat that had been liberal for 34 years. It went conservative in Toronto.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
It was a special election, I believe, in September. There's a special election that was Toronto, August, Montreal, September. But these two special elections, these were seats. This would be like Nancy Pelosi losing in an election in her district. And it's because of the leader. That's how that's what happened. And guess what's on the mind of Canadians?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Inflation, the border and economic strength going forward. Wow. Does that sound familiar to some of the polling here in the United States? And then he comes down here. He's supposing now that it's all come out. He had hasty meetings with his cabinet and came down to see Trump and proceeded to mishandle the private conversation, not the dinner table where we all saw the picture of everybody.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Remember at the dinner table, we saw it. Well, there was a private conversation with Trump, and apparently he mishandled it. And Trump goes, what are you talking about? There's $100 billion. Remember that number that we need to reconcile between the two countries in terms of trade? He says, how about if I just put a tariff on you? We'll fix it that way. So Trudeau came down here with no answers.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
He goes back up to Canada and gets his ass kicked in the media, in Parliament. And guess what? The emergency... But this was just the last straw. Actually, it's the last half of a straw. The Trump thing is the last half of a straw. Because they all want better trade agreement with the United States. They all want better energy policy with the United States. And they want inflation to go down.

And the Canadian dollar, U.S. dollar used to be rather close together. Right now, it's 72 cents on a Canadian dollar. That's what you give them if they hand you a Canadian dollar here in the U.S. You give them 72 cents. So it's way far apart. Polyev, and that's how I teach you how to pronounce it.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Say Poly-ev.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
He is the conservative who is probably going to win because Trudeau is heading. For the worst national election defeat in Canadian history, they didn't see any scenario where Polyev was less than 66%.

Well, there's a lot of us that are happy that certain things about January 6th and about COVID have come out. Canadians are very happy that things have come out because it was a horrible step that was taken against the Canadian truckers. They were all supposed to stop. They tried to turn off their bank cards, their ATM cards, all of this, and it was horrible.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And that was the last straw moment with Canada. It's like, wait a minute. You're like a dictator? The truckers were protesting. And then they said, well, if they're going to protest, we'll turn off their bank. Like, whoa, wait a minute. You're doing what? That was the last straw moment. And from that moment, the economy hasn't gotten better. And this is it. So he can call...

Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And I think at the end of this, with all of the Governor Trudeau and 51st State, I think what's about to happen is we're going to have an economic treaty with Canada that levels out currencies and allows more free trade, border trade. It'll be similar to the EU, but the U.S. and Canada, I think that's where it's happening because crazy like a fox, Trump, that's where it's going.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
We're not going to 51st State. That's how he's poking them in the way that he knows how to do because the art of the deal, we're going to see an economic benefit to both countries, and that's where Trump's going to take it.

Well, I think it's pretty – so if you take Tommy Robinson and you take other reports that are out there, you come to this conclusion. You're like, why – it certainly appears that these folks are being enabled and there's prosecutions not happening. So why is there not an investigation? Why is there not prosecutions?

And most of it is the back end. And as a matter of fact, video game development companies do a lot of posts. So my question is, I'm with you, Pat. Why don't other states do things to equalize it? Number one, but we've talked about that. But number two, far bigger is what's going on with video games. Because there's a lot of jobs that go outside the United States.

Vancouver has a giant base, which would also be post-production video game. And Montreal is an economic incentive zone in the middle of Montreal. And there's a little tiny bit in Toronto. But actually not tiny, tiny. But Vancouver had one of the largest studios for EA. Madden Football was made in Vancouver, my understanding.
PBD Podcast

Well, I think the great troller strikes again. He's talking to somebody. You don't always know who Trump's talking to, but he's talking to somebody here and people are losing their mind. And I think he does that. And I think sometimes he does that on a Monday because he's got something he's going to do on Tuesday and he wants everybody to be running over. Look over here. Look over here.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
So I think that's what's going on. I mean, Alcatraz, it would be god awful expensive to retrofit it and to build it again and to do everything that they wanted to.

Do you think you should do it? No, no, no, no, no. It's a museum now and you don't need to preserve the museum. But if you look out there, we understand the thought that they had at the time they did it, but it would be way too... So you think it's a bad idea? Do I think it's a bad idea to have a prison like Alcatraz? Do I think it's a bad idea to have the Leavenworths and the Alcatrazes?
PBD Podcast

Well, one thing the president is really right about, and the mainstream media is not talking about it, but I found an article in the Wall Street Journal, and there's a couple... A couple of writers for the journal that I happen to like, one of them I like, because of the quality of his work and he's very numbers oriented. So they pointed out, how bad is China's economy?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Well, in the fourth quarter of 23, they suddenly stopped releasing data on certain things. For instance, I'll show you this. China's unemployment for ages 16 to 24. We see here, there it is. Keep going, keep going, Rob. Rob's got the article. Fantastic. Unemployment, keep one more, one more, one more, so people can see it. Nope, that's not so. One more. There it is. Watch this, Pat.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
So the unemployment rate for people 16 to 24, China is releasing it. Adam, schau dir das an. Sag mir, was du denkst. All of a sudden the data stops in the middle of 2023. Why does it stop? It stops because the line was crossing 20%. The unemployment rate for people 16 to 24 in China is over 20%.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
And similarly, they showed the number of people in urban areas who are receiving China's equivalent of unemployment benefits. You can go one more chart there. One more chart. No, go back, go back up. Well, he's getting that unemployment benefits. One more.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
That's it. All of a sudden, all of a sudden, the number of people is heading toward 3 million. Look at those numbers going up. That's the effect that the rest of the world had on COVID when they couldn't buy stuff and they were locked up. So China is suppressing its stats so that the rest of the world cannot see what's going on. And Trump is correct.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
dass die chinesische Wirtschaft, speziell die Realitätsindustrie und Unabhängigkeit zwischen den Jüngsten und Menschen, die in großen Städten Wohlfahrt bekommen, steigt. Unabhängigkeit ist jetzt über 20 Prozent für diese 16 bis 24 Jahre. Trump ist also korrekt. Chinas Wirtschaft ist in einem schwierigen Spot. Und eine Regierung sagt, wir spielen das lange Spiel.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Das lange Spiel betrifft unglaubliche Miserie und Schwierigkeit auf der Innenseite seines Landes. Und noch nicht, dass jeder es sieht. Und danke der Wall Street Journal für die Begründung all dieser Dinge, wo die Daten stoppen. Sie stoppen die Veröffentlichung von Daten für den Rest der Welt. Also kann es nicht genutzt werden, mit ihnen oder gegen sie zu negotiieren. Aber es ist schlecht.

Well, Trump said China's economy was in trouble. And if you make point one, point two, he said the American auto industry, including the unions, are going to thank him. And I think Ford CEO Jim Farley was already saying, hey, I may have to update my my guidance for the year and my revenue and my profit. But I make more here than anybody else. And I think we're ultimately going to be a win.
PBD Podcast

And then the unions allegedly have now come out and said, you know, this does help our union workers. Are you really asking what is the question here?

Well, Adam, China has backed down like ethane. Ethane, which is a petrochemical, which leads to the production of plastic. They dropped their 125% tariff. And then when questioned by Reuters, they said the official declined the comment due to the sensitivity of the matter. Yeah. So, why did they go from 125% tariff on ethane down to zero? Because they had to. It's a blink.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
But they won't talk about it. And it was not announced publicly. It happened over a weekend. Gee, why would it happen over a weekend, Adam? It's because they don't want the US, they don't want CNBC to pick up on it. So they're starting to blink in little ways. Are they formidable? Am I worried about things that they could do? Damn right I am. But they are blinking and their internal economy sucks.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
I think this is good. I mean, if they're going to spy on us, we're going to spy on them. And, you know, the part that's, you got to remember in their media, think about their media.

Nobody wants to say it. I need to interject. What pain are you talking about? Exactly. How bad is this pain? The pain is a headline. Let's be careful that we don't accidentally cultivate some words that are in headlines that maybe aren't quite there yet. Are there some impacts of tariffs? Yes. But what did they just do?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
There was a study last week, it was 10,000 items from Walmart, and Walmart said that they were holding the prices flat, that the consumers had not seen a change on that. Home Depot said, we're holding the prices flat. So I want to just encourage you and us to be careful about, well, we've got to feel the pain for a while. Wait a minute. I'm waiting to see quantitative pain.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
We're not seeing quantitative pain that says the Fed's saying, wow, things are going so badly, I've got to drop interest rates. That's not happening yet. So, is there a lot of talk? Yes. Is there people like Ford that are revising their estimate of sales for the year? Yes. But to say that we're all in horrible pain? Look at your 401k, man.
PBD Podcast

And so I think he's coming down here for two things. He's basically saying it between the lines. The election is over. The crap talking is over. He's got to come down and make a deal and he knows it. And Trump is right. And I love what Howard said. I'm just glad I'm going to be in the room.

Well, first of all, she's absolutely right. In Canada, the taxes are amazing. And then the government gives money back to the provinces. They give in Alberta, I think Saskatchewan is the same. Sometimes they're called transfer payments, also called equalization payments. Wow. Québec ist, wo Montreal ist und es ist, wo sie die meisten Sozialisten sind.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Adam hat recht, was er über Kanada gesagt hat, aber die Dregs des Sozialismus sind in Québec. Und wenn du also in Alberta schaust, Alberta will, dass sie ihr Öl handelt und will, dass sie es handelt, dass sie Öl handelt und der Staat kind of messet mit ihnen. Because if they allowed them to do it, you know how wealthy Alberta would be? Texas.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
And by the way, they also have a thriving beef industry. So what the Albertans are saying is we're on this island and we're not with the program. And they want either an Alberta Accord. And look, it's an accord with your own country. And they're asking for access to a port. They're a part of Canada. And they just want access to the port so they can export their oil. Isn't that crazy? The U.S.

Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
has never said that Oklahoma or Arkansas couldn't send things through a Houston port to export. This happens all the time. And so they're talking about how fed up they are. And there you have it. Your own country won't even do things for you. And now they want an accord to level the playing field for Alberta. And they're trying to go the nice way.

There's a president of the United States who is saying that if you're going to be discriminatory in admissions, if you're not going to protect one group of students on campus from violent protest and verbiage and calls for violence against them, the way the Jewish students were feeling it and seeing it and being concerned, then what are you doing? I'm sorry, you don't get money from the taxpayer.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
You're not going to... Look at it this way. You've got one set of taxpayers, Jewish students and their parents and other sets of taxpayers over here that may not even be from the United States. And you're not even protecting those taxpayers on your private campus. Then I'm sorry, you don't get public dollars. And that's what he's saying. And Bill's being very balanced.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
He's saying that the board is the problem. He's saying that he thinks Alan Garber is by and large a pretty reasonable leader. Bill said that. But he also said the concept that a board is doing this is wrong. If this was a publicly traded company, they would have made the change already because they would have been scared about their stock price. But they're private.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
And as a private company taking public dollars, you need to be called to account. You're being called to account. And instead of saying we're sorry... Instead of saying, we'll change it. Instead of saying, you're right, maybe these Jewish students and people on campus shouldn't have felt fear with these protests. They say, your move is highly illegal and destructive to Harvard.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Well, damn right it is, and it should be destructive to you if you need public funds to survive, yet you're sitting on tens of billions of dollars in endowment. Are you kidding me? So I think Bill Ackman was right, and if anything, he's a little bit measured, because I think, Für zu lange sind sie politische Institutionen geworden. Harvard wurde gegründet, um die Gemeinschaft zu servieren.

Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Und einer der Ziele, also die Leute, die sagen, es wurde gegründet als Seminarium, ist falsch. Aber einer der wichtigen Ziele war es, Minister für öffentlichen Service zu trainieren. Also wie weit ist der Apfel vom Baum gefallen?

Is this the same Pritzker family?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Yeah. So the boards nowadays can get sued by the shareholders. And now if someone asks you to be on a board of a company, and Pat and I both know about this, they want to check you out. And you ask, okay, would you have officer and director's insurance? And what is the status of your board? Do you want me to be on the compensation committee, the audit committee?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
The boards are there and the board members can be sued. So the board members have more accountability than ever, which is why boards sometimes take actions quickly, good boards, against the CEO that's way outside the lines. Do you know what the Pritzker family is famous for?

Ich werde direkt aufhören mit dir. Die Laufzeit auf Victimhood ist kurz. Und auf einmal hatte sie ein Produkt, das sie offerten könnte. Und sie hatte einen wundervollen Buch. Und sie repräsentierte, weißt du, heilige Essen und solche Dinge. Und sie hatte... Sie war inspirierend. And more purpose. She was inspirational. And by the way, in the White House, let's break it down, folks.

1.3 million coming in, 12.2 going out. I did the before taxes. So before taxes, the Obamas averaged 1.96 million per year before taxes. As president, he only made about 300 grand. So something was going on, they were getting book deals, they were getting speaking, she was getting paid to speak, like at universities and stuff. So there was all this going on, but now, guess what?

It's like a pair of Levi's that is no longer in style and nobody wants to buy. You can recreate yourself. Huh? You can recreate yourself. I agree, but you can recreate. What would the CEO do at Levi's? Hire designers. We're all about denim, but let's get with the future. Let's design what people want. But whoever is with her, she's not getting any encouragement to reinvent.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Or if she's getting that encouragement, she's not saying anything. And it's just disappointing to me. America needs women that are inspirational for our girls to look up to. I agree. Especially a woman of color.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
I'm not for it. I have nothing, I'm not going to repeat anything that's been said. I just have a question. If you were in that bar that night, where were you? If you were across the bar and said, hey, look at that sign over there, where were you?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
If we're not a nation of standards and of people that will stand for principles, then there are things that are going to happen around you, they're going to grow around you, that are going to grow up around you. And if you're just happy to sit at your table and not walk across and be a person of principle, where were you? That's the question I have. Where were the other people in that bar?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
I would not have been in a bar in a VIP section, but if it was like a lounge area restaurant or somebody where I might be sitting there waiting for a table or something and I saw that, I would ask the manager, what is up with that? Why is that there? And so, where were the co-workers? Where were the bartenders? Where were the patrons? Where was the manager?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Where was everybody else while this was going on? Where were you? And this, I believe, in a little way, is a shining light on what is becoming America as we slide toward a nation that... What are your principles? And what will you stand up for? And what will you walk across the street to say, I'm not standing for that and I can't have this?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
So that's my question today, is where were those that were around? Can I ask you three questions?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Well, first of all, why is it so expensive to walk across the lot at Fox and shoot a movie? Taxes in California, Tom? Taxes in unions.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
So this is how it works. You go to Ireland and Ireland looks at a stack of money. And they say, you know, some of this we might have to give out in the winter as unemployment benefits. So rather than spend it on unemployment benefits, hey, I've got an idea. Why don't we give like 25% of it to a movie production company?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
And then they're going to pay a bunch of Irish people who are in the industry to be a grip, a cameraman, because we got people over here doing that. Of course. Und sie machen das. Nun, sie bringen ihren Talent, weil es nicht ein irischer Brad Pitt gibt. Sie bringen alle Sterne. Aber, weißt du was? Lass uns das machen. Und das ist ein ökonomischer Incentiv.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
Und plötzlich, nun, Hollywood schaut sich das an und sagt, wow, wenn wir diesen Incentiv bekommen haben und dann diese Leute bezahlen, können wir sie über da fliegen und in low-cost irischen Hotels und so bleiben und wir können das filmen. Nun, wenn du etwas wie Highlander und solche Dinge machst, Great, you know, you could go film it in Ireland.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
If you're going to do Weekend at Bernie's, you know, you need to be in the Bahamas or Hawaii, right? So here's what I just did. The incentives is what tips the scale.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
And the unions have guarantees. Here or there? Here. The unions also have, it's not just the labor cost part, it's that every production will have three grips and two construction guys and three painters. They have minimums. So if you need something painted on the set, you have to hire three painters or you need three grips. And those are the staff guarantees.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Film Tariffs, Alcatraz Reopened, China Shut Down | PBD Podcast | Ep. 583
So in addition to being more expensive, they're guaranteeing the size of the staff. And over in Ireland, it just said they're leaner and smaller staff.

Everybody runs out of the kitchen. That's exactly just what happened.

But what happened in 20— The Russians that were there getting shelled seemed to care.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Well, first of all, I love what he's saying. Let's break into some of the major parts. He talks about individual development. Tim Armstrong of Verizon's Oath, which was Verizon Media, man, took it in the chops when he came out and he said, I'm already seeing, and we were only six months into COVID, I'm already seeing people working from home and
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
that are not getting the ability to develop, that want to raise, that they want to be promoted to manager, and they haven't been around people, and they haven't been developing. So number one is development, and he's absolutely right. The overall umbrella, though, these are the standards that make this company great, and I am leading this company, and this is the way I'm going to do it.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And so he's not out there to say, I'm going to vote for the average. He called it a disease. He said, I'm not here to vote for average. These are the standards that make JP Morgan great. If you want to work with JP Morgan, work for me, and here's what I think about it. And you get development out of it, but also I want to eliminate focus and distraction. People do it to me.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
You don't do that at my meetings. When I'm at my meetings, I set my phone aside. You have my focus. You have my attention. And so he's absolutely correct as far as I'm concerned. If other people want to do it differently, they can do it differently. And by the way, what was Sergey Brin talking about? Competition. He said competition to AI is heating up.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
It is not a given that our Gemini project is going to be successful. And by the way, I think 60 hours a week is about what we need to do here because this is a competitive thing and we could lose a lead here. That's what Sergey Brin is talking about. are they both talking about? We're leading these companies. And if you want to work here, this is the way it's going to be.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And why do people not respect that?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Democrats need to find their Trump, not the authoritarian part, but the part where a politician bonds with everyday Americans because he talks like them. The good news for Democrats is they have that guy, and his name is John Fetterman. After the election, instead of curling up in a ball, Fetterman went to Mar-a-Lago, where Trump assumed he was one of the guys from January 6th.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And afterwards, Trump said, he's not liberal or conservative. He's just a common sense person, which is beautiful. And that's the kind of gay adjacent respect Trump usually reserves for Putin. Trump and Fetterman actually have a lot in common.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
They're both plain-spoken anti-elitists who come from money, married exotic immigrant ladies, went to Ivy League schools, and aren't afraid to take on their own party. And when the wind catches Trump's hair just right, they're both six foot eight. Look, here's the thing. Voters aren't really savvy about the issues, but they have made it clear what is important to them.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Authenticity, balls, and charisma. Trump has that package, and so does Fetterman. He's only been a senator two years, and he's already more famous than most of his colleagues. Quick, I dare you to name this sad-looking lady from Washington state who's been in the Senate for 30 years. You can't teach charisma or balls.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Fetterman is that rare Democrat who's not afraid to put the woke nonsense peddlers in his own party in their place, saying things like wanting a secure border and realizing that it was out of control. That doesn't mean you're a xenophobe or a racist. He's been unequivocally pro-Israel. Jillian, thoughts. Do you agree with him?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Well, look, Fetterman, I have a modicum of respect for John Fetterman because John Fetterman appears to be very speaking very plainly. But when the second coming of Peter Boyle and the monster from Young Frankenstein is the best that you can do, sitting on the Ritz, if everybody knows what I'm talking about, it's kind of shocking to me.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
That, you know, Bill Maher goes down the entire roll call and there's only one guy that he can come out to. And he's talking not about positions and business and negotiation. He's talking about balls, the ability to speak plainly and connect to a populace. So it shows even with with. with Bill Maher, who's not a dumb guy.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And I've seen a real metamorphosis in his positions that I have a lot of respect for. But, you know, Fetterman, I think it's good that there's somebody in the Democrat Party that's taking a moderate position and stepping out like this. I think it's a good thing. Is he their new messiah? No.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Right. So if the tariffs stay, which are just now implemented, and if they stay... They will affect the price of the car.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
After all the cars that are built right now that are currently in inventory or sold, because those were built with yesterday's materials at yesterday's prices, after the cars are built today that the raw materials are already landed and are being assembled into cars as we speak, and all those are sold, then, yes, you will get to a point where the automakers are buying things at higher prices.

They're running him up the flag because he's saying exactly what the mainstream media wants to hear, that it's all there. So could it all come true if this is still going on in four months? Sure. Do I think it's going to still be going on in four months? No, because... The clout that we have behind our tariffs is much higher than the clout that the other side has. I'll give you a great example.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
With the tariffs coming to Europe, Europe, the EU Economic Union, managed to come together and through a retaliatory strike, and you can go look this up, against the United States. And they are putting tariffs on Harley Davidson motorcycles and Levi's jeans. That was an individual action that they took two weeks ago. So we'll teach those Americans.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
We'll put tariffs on Harleys here in Europe, which don't sell particularly well over there, and on Levi's jeans, which is an American jean. And so you can see the tariffs, the market reacts because market only thinks about future things. CEO says the wrong thing on earnings report, boom, stock moves because that's a future, the stock market is future speculation.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
But in terms of the real impact on, On consumers, what was the third word in that sentence you just looked at? And the word was could. Could. Tariff set for March 4th could spike. It's all speculative. Right now, these are negotiations. These aren't taxes. These are negotiations. If they're still around months from now, yeah, you could have a real live price impact.

And by the way, you've got to take a look at this. Just scroll up a little bit, Rob. Just scroll it up a little bit.

Don't apologize. You're fine. It's okay. Vinny P's twice a show. It's fine. Basically, what's going on right now, nothing to do with Trump. What this report is right here, right now, with consumer spending. The consumers ran their credit cards back up to $1.3 trillion. BNPL delinquencies were shooting up even before the Christmas presents had been unwrapped. The consumer is very tapped out.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And when you read now the fine print, you get behind the headlines and want to say, oh, because of Trump tariffs this. No, bullshit. It's got nothing to do with Trump tariffs. The Commerce Department is reporting personal spending fell 0.2% in January. By the way, he wasn't inaugurated until January 20th, ladies and gentlemen. And missing estimates. Adjusted for inflation spending spell half. Why?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
The consumer was tapped out at the end of last year. And so right now what we have is a president that is trying to get some sanity and equivalency on tariffs, number one. And number two, he's trying to set the economy up so it can grow. But the consumer is tapped out. And so I think people need to look at this.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
It's very convenient for the mainstream media to say, oh, bad Trump this, bad Trump that. And by the way, not everything that's going on in the economy right now is good. We've got to get it sorted out. We've got to get cool heads to come together and get these equivalent tariff things have to come together. But he didn't get inaugurated until –
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
January 20th, and the consumer's been tapped out since the end of last year.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
So what happens—and this is not my opinion. I mean, let's go back and look at history. Whenever you have situations like this come up, the party looks around and we all cogitate. Look at this person. Look at that person. Look at this person. Look at that person. You know, Antonio Villarosa. Holy shit, he's still alive? You know, from L.A., right? And all those things coming up.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
What will come back to the top... is name recognition, because they realize that the voter, the majority of the voter, 80% of those that vote, are living in short attention span theater. They will go to name recognition.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And that's why I believe right now, and I'm not trying to prognosticate, I believe this is going to be Rick Caruso versus Kamala Harris, because both parties are going to go to name recognition. However, on the... Republican side, Rick Caruso, critic of the wildfires, strong guy on sensible policies to rebuild Los Angeles and California.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
But I think at the end of the day, the reason they're all waiting for Kamala is because she's the choice of the of the of the Democrat establishment. That's why they're waiting for her. They're not saying, hey, if you don't make a decision in 10 minutes, we're going this way. And Antonio Villarosa and Eleni Kounakoulis, they're each going to get 15% of the preliminary money.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
No, that's not what they're saying. They're saying we're waiting on her because all she has to say is I'm doing it and we're going with her because that's the name recognition they want. And if you go back and look at how primaries and a lot of things happen, that's usually how it shakes out. You're saying for the governor of California or for the president?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
That's what you're talking about. I'm talking about the decision in the governor's race. Kamala Harris. I thought we were talking about presidential.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
No, I was answering the question about the California governor's waist.

Gavin Newsom, in my opinion, is still the guy. Can I ask your opinion on something?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I don't. I get the feeling, you know, at least my generation, the men are a little pickier. And they may be, you know, remember, there's two speeds for men, right? There's men that give fake love to get sex, and then women that will give sex, but they get fake love, right? And that's like the fallacy. That's a fallacy of the hookup generation.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And so I think men tend to be— Men tend to be pickier and are less quick to want full commitment.

Instead, Tom, your thoughts on the story. So, boy, where do you go on this? I think everybody has seen the all of the historical constructs. And there's been a lot of people that old speeches and things that are on Twitter showing where this started. And this didn't start with Russia's invasion. This goes back to 2014. This goes back into overthrowing a rightful president and putting in a new.

regime in Ukraine. And this goes back to the progressive eastward expansion of NATO. And, you know, Russia keeps saying, hey, stop. You said you weren't going to do this. Can you stop that? And then the Baltic states and then the southern states and then Georgia. And it's like, stop. And so now you've got Europe over there saying, we're going to back you up.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
We're going to do this and back you up. You have to remember where this started. And no, Russia shouldn't have invaded there. And just the heartfelt loss of life that's happened in Ukraine to all the average citizens, this is horrifying. The count that everybody keeps talking about is a million Ukrainians have lost their lives in this conflict. This is horrible. It's like 10 COVIDs.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And so, you know, I look at all of Europe. You're going to back up this guy and give him a backstop that gives him no... He doesn't have to find a peace deal with Russia. He doesn't have to negotiate with Russia. He can keep flipping off Putin because these people are going to back him up now. So how do you get Ukraine to the table to say, hey, look, you know, we got to find a way forward on this.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And to me, I find it... Very, very difficult. And what's equally galling to me is there's things that the media and the other foreign countries aren't talking about. It's just how much we gave as grants versus giving as loans.

Yep. And I think the other side knows what they're saying and they're full of crap. What's happened here is that look at what's happened under Trump's leadership. But this is about leadership, not about permanent tariffs. And the tariffs haven't been permanent. The tariffs under Trump have been tactics, not taxes. He's taken a tactical position and he's gotten people to move.

Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And by the way, look at that list from Trudeau. If that gets to the Canadian parliament, that is a good list that makes them a stronger country unto themselves and a helpful partner with the United States. That's a good list. And the Wall Street Journal is treating it like permanent legislation. Oh, this is wrongheaded.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
When the journal's editorial board, they know damn well that these are tactics, not permanent taxes. And so they're coming out after him because these are Trump's enemies. But take a look at his leadership. His leadership could not be more clear than Qatar hours after he's elected. And Qatar says, hey, we're looking forward to the new leadership.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And by the way, we're making some changes here about people that can be in our country. If you're associated with Hamas and the Arab Brotherhood, you know what? We're not no part of that. That was Qatar. Colombia last week. I'm going to ship Colombians back to Colombia. In other words, I'm sending people home who have criminal records.

And he says, hey, escucha. Tariff muy grande. And he goes, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait. You know, we thought it over. You know, you can send them here. That was what was that, four hours? Colombia moved in four hours. And now you've got Canada moving in less than 48 hours. You are seeing leadership on one side and you're seeing Trump's enemies using this tariff argument.

That's Trump. Straight up. Well, I think there's also a consistent thing that if people look below the surface, they're going to see. What was the issue with Greenland? He didn't want a 51st state. He was like, hey, look, this is the way we're going to do this. You can be like Puerto Rico. We'll provide vents. We'll do this.

But you've got a lot of minerals and stuff that we want here, and we don't want you to have that China deal. Yeah. And Panama Canal, what came out last night? We've rethought our China deal, says the president of Panama. Now, what's he talking about Ukraine? Rare earth minerals. He's looking for rare earth minerals to help U.S. industry, multiple industries. This is semiconductor.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
This is lithium batteries. This is electric vehicles. Yep. He is looking to get those resources for the U.S. and eliminate the pinch. Pat, we had a long segment two weeks ago on the Panama Canal, talked about the importance of it and how it gets pinched. He is out there with great consistency. So what you just heard about Ukraine is very similar to what you heard about Greenland.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
He wants to get those resources for the United States, and he wants to limit China's traction on the same thing.

Pull a couple words out of here. More than half of Costco's employees are at the top of the pay scale, meaning if you have a range for a position, they're at the top of it because of extremely low turnover. So in other words, they've been getting raises each year and they've been moving along and now they're at the top of that. So why is there low turnover?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
People like working at Costco, and now they're getting additional benefits. Oh, extra week of vacation when you've been there 30 years, and vacation for new workers within your first year. You will be granted some vacation in your first year. So it sounds like Costco cares about its workers, is paying rates differently.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
You know, $30 an hour for somebody working at Costco, they're paying a meaningful rate. Meanwhile, the unions, once upon a time, unions were out there when factories were run 14 hours a day and they were unsafe and people were getting hurt on factory machinery. and before OSHA, and before balancing, unions served a purpose.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Well, now the Teamsters, which only represent Costco workers in California, blue, Washington, blue, Maryland, blue, Virginia, kind of blue, New Jersey, less blue lately, but blue, and New York. So it's blue states that they've been able to get traction. Why haven't they been able to get traction in the red states? Because the workers are saying, why do I need to give a union dues to you?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I'm making almost $30 an hour here, and I get vacation. I get benefits. I've been working at Costco 25 years, and they've been good to me. Why do I need you, union? And why do I need to pay a union due to you? You know what? You're insurance that I don't need. I don't need that policy. And so that's what's going on. And Costco, in the middle of dealing with the unions, the timing was perfect.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
because now they raise the paid over $30 an hour. They add more benefits to the people that are non-union. So guess what it does? It completely takes the teeth out of the union. And this is Costco saying, I'm doing pretty good.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And as the union is trying to lever, trying to create a strike and trying to create problems, you have a lot of people on the other side at Costco are saying, I don't know, this company's been pretty good to me.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543

No, he's the reigning MVP of the league? I guess I do have a thought. And the thought that I have is that, you know, how many... Come on, Tom, you got this. How many situations do you go with where this has been on the table? Shaq would run up and down the court yelling at... saying, pay me, in the middle of the game. He would yell, pay me.

Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Well, let's unpack it all together here. The first thing to unpack is, remember, Trudeau has not resigned. He only said he was resigning as head of the party and as prime minister. And the reason he hasn't fully walked off stage yet is he has a key ally named Jagmeet Singh in their government. Think of him as the Schumer of Canada working with the president.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
This is a... So... What would they love to do? They would love to tax people and just keep flowing it out to the homeless population. And by the way, have Governor Newsom block the audit where they had all the dollars missing for homelessness. And they, well, let's have an audit of it. And he said, no, no, let's not be too hasty because he knows where some of that waste went.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And so what they're saying here is, Vinny, your house burned down. Okay. And they're like, you know what? You're in Altadena. We're going to declare your area a working class area. And so you can't rebuild your house. You have to rebuild like a four unit townhouses, four of them together. You have to rebuild that. Why?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Because we need lower cost housing and only cost people two grand a month to stay in that that housing. So you you're not going to be rebuilding because we're rezoning it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Okay. And maybe your insurance had ALE rider, which means alternative living expenses. Okay. Where they pay for your hotel or temporary housing while your home is being rebuilt. By the way, that could be very expensive. That could take a long time. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And by the way, there's a little side note in there that maybe some of the insurance companies would rather that you sell your property to a developer than you use your ALE. Oh, man. Get it? Got it. So I'm paying ALE for you so that you could go live someplace while your house is being rebuilt or you're waiting for a permit and all these things are going on.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And you finally get your home rebuilt because you had extra money. You somehow managed to do it. You pulled it off. Meanwhile, developer comes to your twin brother and says, hey, I'll just buy your land for $1.5 million. in Altadena. I'll bet you have a good lot. I'll just pay a million and a half for that, and we'll build that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So Jagmeet is Schumer and Trudeau is that. And so he's held off actually leaving. Actually leaving. And what that means is that the liberals still are clinging on to power and they're making decisions because they still have what's called the coalition government.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
You may just say, I'll take the 1.5, I'll save it, and then I'll go rent something somewhere. Meanwhile, your twin brother says, maybe I do just want to rebuild. And they say, no, no, no, no, no. The new zoning that we have here is we need more low-income housing. Why? Because homelessness is a problem. We've wasted our $24 billion, and we need more... We need more housing.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So this is basically, think of it this way. They just taxed your previous house down to zero. They stole the house from you, forcing you to take whatever you could get from the people buying the land so a developer could build four low-income homes.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Well, certain developers are staying in California because thanks to things like this, they've got something to do because they're just like the developer looks at it. Man, I'm glad this is what I would do. I'll be devil's advocate. I will be a developer. You know what, man? I am so glad my digs in Encino didn't burn down. But I'm going to be building in Altadena.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I'm going to be building these four-unit townhomes, you know, four of them in a row. I got three of these people bought the land. I bought the land. I got 12 of them being built, and the city is requiring that I do it this way. So I'm going to sell 12 units. I just bought the land.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So the developers can stay in business just building what the city says they need to build, and then the developers will sell to an investor who then has to – Rent them, but not at rent above a certain level for low income. This is just another... This is... California knows how to force. I'll sum it up this way. California forces. By 2030, you must... By a non-diesel truck. You must.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So we're going to force that. By 2030, some percent of cars must be electric vehicles. Wait, I thought we didn't have enough power plant. And the PG&E stuff, we're arcing and starting some of these fires. We're not worried about that. Don't interrupt me. You must have an electric vehicle. So California is in the must. The dictatorial state of socialist California has now come to housing.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And so most people wanted us to point out and I've gotten some next from people and we've seen comments that says, hey, people need to understand that us here in Canada. He told us he was resigning, but he hasn't actually left. He's resigning as head of the party and as prime minister. If he was to run against Polivere, he's going to get his butt kicked.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I haven't even followed this story a little bit.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Trump did the right thing because California has been holding water because they have this little fish that they want to protect. Smelt. And by the way, what does it say about those reservoirs? Those reservoirs were at maximum capacity, which means that the winter snow was good. The runoff has come down. And that's usually from the Sierras, the Western Sierras.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
That's usually what fills up the Northern California reservoirs. And by the way, Pat and I did a lot of business in Bakersfield and in Fresno and Visalia. And you know what's right next to I-5? The California Aqueduct, which is this huge man-made... You see it when you drive it, yeah. It's a concrete river. So they say, you know, water 200 miles away...
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
They built an aqueduct like Rome did to go from Northern California to Southern California years and years and years ago for exactly this purpose, to bring water from mountains and snow and melting in spring down to other parts. They did it. And instead, they limited. And then in Northern California, they were letting excess run right into the Pacific Ocean.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And so Trump is like, wait, you're collecting it in reservoirs up there and then later you let it run into the ocean? No. Why don't you release it down here and just let it go? So this is California's water management is as poorly run as their power management, which is as poorly run as their, well, real estate management. And this is California.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
It's going to be the worst defeat in electoral history in Canada. But Jagmeet wants to stay in power. Some people say he's got some financial interest and even a pension that he's trying to preserve. So that's what's going on. So you have Trudeau. dealing with the U.S., which is not what the rest of the Canadian parliament wants.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I mean, how many ways do you need to have theoretical bureaucrats who have never run or built anything in their life, running the sixth largest economy in the world and doing it badly on so many levels. These people would be, if this was a public company, they and the board and all of them would be fired and they'd be suffering a shareholder suit for demution of value.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
And so when Trudeau comes out and says, me and the coalition government, we're doing this plus this plus this, they have weak support. You know what I mean? It's kind of like having a 50-50 Senate. Very weak support. He picks up the phone and calls Trump. Trump says, I'm sending you an email. Cut and paste it. If you could put it on Twitter, that would really be helpful.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Good for them. Well, there is a subtext here. And so when they say, we're helpless to whatever Sherry, that's Sherry Redstone, and the bosses decide to do, it's a real shame to think the nuisance is the bargaining chip. They need the Federal Trade Commission and the FCC to approve the sale of Paramount and all the CBS assets to Skydance. Skydance is owned by the—well, not—
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
almost all owned by a man named David Ellison, the son of Larry Ellison. And so David Ellison and Skydance want to buy Paramount and they want the deal to go through. So they, Sherry wants David Ellison's money because he's buying it. Sherry Redstone wants the money. How do you get the money? You got the federal government's got to approve the deal. How do you approve the deal? Hmm.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Federal government's upset with that. You know what we could do? We'll cooperate. And by the way, so all she's doing, she's not grandstanding. She's just cooperating with the federal government that's saying, hey, you know what? That may have been election interference. We want to see the unedited film. And CBN, you have 60 Minutes saying we're not a bargaining chip. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Because that there was exactly what the U.S. wanted, and it's very similar to what Mexico wanted. So, people need to understand that's what's going on. You're looking at a weak guy that is getting pushed around in Trudeau.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
It has nothing to do with bargaining chip. It may, but you created the problem. You edited this, and you are being called to account for it. Well, now they just want to play nice. Well, no, no. You know what CBS News wants to do? They want to be irascible, badgering, puny-minded dolts. That's what they want.
PBD Podcast

They want to hold their line to say, we're the media, we're against conservative, and we want to do this, and they want CBS to keep funding it and defend them, even though they did something here.

There's no substance in these speeches. That's what struck me. I mean, you can be upset and we can howl at the moon and go look at these things, but there is no substance.

What I – I did the same thing you just did. I rewound it a couple times. I wanted to make sure I understood context because I had a real reaction at first. I was like, what are you thinking? That was what I was thinking. And I think this shows – in my opinion, I think this shows she has a predisposition. You can always tell when you interview somebody or you talk to somebody –
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
You ask one or two questions and they give you one or two answers and you're like, okay, I can see which way this person leans. We've all said that in our minds when we've interviewed somebody for a job or you've spoken to somebody you just met. Oh, I see. I see which way this person, I see which way the wind blows with this person. All those phrases that run through our heads.

In this, the word that came to my head, I said, wow, I wonder if Leslie Stahl doesn't have a predisposition that favors the Palestinian situation and the Hamas and Gaza situation. And so she doesn't even realize it, but her questions are coming out, showing doubt to the other side because she's got this predisposition.

In the old West, they used to say you walk into a court and if the judge is already frowning, Forget it. You're guilty. You know what I mean? Then that used to be the thing. It says when you walked in the court with a drug, it was frowning. Okay, you're done. And it kind of feels like that. And I look at this. She's a career journalist.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
She's had a distinguished career, regardless of what you think of her individual politics that she's displayed. But it just felt to me, Pat, that she had a predisposition, and it's almost just off the top of her head and reflexively coming out. And it was disappointing because she's talking – She's not making a commentary on a new show.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
She's speaking directly to a victim of torture, imprisonment, who is just praising his personal God that he's alive.

Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I think what's going on here is something very simple. People are talking about the third term. And by the way, I don't see any leaks in your argument, Pat. And I'm going to provide some nuanced color from this angle. People are talking about a third term for one reason. It takes time to lock this kind of change in. It takes a strong head coach to stay with a new program for a team.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
It takes a strong leader to push salespeople with a new commission plan or new products. It takes time. And leaders that go, oh, everybody's upset 10 minutes after I made a change. I'll go back. That is not leadership. That is not taking you to the future. So they talk about the third term because it takes time. You want to know? Let me tell you. Do you know Clinton?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I once read an article that said, welcome to Reagan's fourth term of economic policy. Why? Reagan, Reagan, Bush, Clinton. Clinton didn't go into the control room and start twisting dials on the Reagan economy. And people, you know why? Why? Because for eight years it was working, and then Bush Sr.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
got kind of messed up because pro was in the election, and he also raised taxes after he said, read my lips, no new taxes. But Clinton went in and said, over the eight years, well, guess what? This is working. I know, because I was with the early stage companies in Silicon Valley. We were worried about a lot of things. When Clinton claimed power, he said, guess what? There's nothing to worry about.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
You know what? He's not moving it. So when people talk about the third term, they want I'd like to see J.D. Vance for eight years, not because I'm a homer for the Republican Party, but because I believe what's happening here is necessary to establish stability in leadership. The United States for the next several years, we got to let it lock in.

So and by the way, and if I could jump really quick to a fast point about the automakers. You know what? Facts don't care about your feelings. Right. Well, you know what? Also, facts don't care about they don't care about your headlines sometimes. And this is when, you know, they've got these headlines. Trump warned U.S. automakers not to raise prices. You know what he was saying to people?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
He was saying, I don't care if major automakers raise their prices because we're going to buy American made cars, such as the 70 percent of Mercedes total manufacturing that happens in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. That is an American-made car. And guess what? BMW is at war with what marquee do they line up number one with? And they've been going at it for 70 years. BMW.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
If you take a look, they have their model line. You can look at it. We do a case study on it. But BMW is getting hit with tariffs and Mercedes not. So Mercedes sits back and says, I'm an American-made car and you're going to help me with my biggest competitor. Who's quietly happy about it? So what Trump was talking about is, listen, man. He said the American-made cars are going to win.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I don't care if you other people raise your prices.

Yeah, so... if anyone wants to look at the panama canal uh... progress of statements negotiations and everything else And Trump said this was really important to trade for the West, specifically the U.S., as ships come from the Pacific Ocean into the Gulf of America and then come into key ports. He said that. And he said China was putting too much influence in Panama.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
They're building bridges over the top of it. They're building infrastructure there. They're going to control this. This is not good. And who raises this? And throws the flag on the field on the deal. China. China does. So what do I think here? Trump is right, ladies and gentlemen. And we're seeing the response from China. And this has got to be a diplomatic standoff.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
The key guy here who has already been down there twice is Marco Rubio. Our Secretary of State on behalf of Trump is going to be right in the middle of this. Well, I think he is in the middle of it. I don't think he's left.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
to make it happen, because this is really important strategically and economically for the United States, and it's no surprise that the pressure came from, what was it, the pro-China outlet, Kung Pao Chicken, what is it, Ta Kung Pao, there it is, was slamming the deal as a betrayal of China and perfect cooperation with U.S. containment. Really? That's what they want. They want U.S. containment.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
That's exactly what they want. And so if you don't think this is important, you're not paying attention, and this deal needs to get done one way or another. Adam.

What do you think, Tom? What do I think? I would pay Caitlin Collins the $3 million a year because I think she's got more upside. I think she's malleable. Previously, she demonstrated a little bit of a conservative bent. She was dating somebody. Now she's living in a liberal chair. People say that may not be the real her, but she's got upside.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So I have two things to say really quick. Never, never underestimate the power of the echo chamber, Vinny, in corporate boardrooms. Never underestimate the power of that echo chamber to make decisions. And second... Never assume, you know, malice if it can be adequately explained by stupidity. And I just think these bad owners make bad decisions. In baseball, there was the Bobby Bonilla contract.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
There was the Chanho Park contract by the drunk. I won't say drunk. The Texas Rangers, everyone wanted to know what happened at this dinner when they came and they gave Chanho Park this unbelievable contract, which later was traded around the league as everyone was trying to get rid of it. Because he was never a pitcher that was going to pitch up to that level. But it was a frenzy in free agent.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
They thought they needed another arm. They freaked out. They went to the echo chamber and they signed it. And all of baseball was like, what? Well, guess what? Every other owner in baseball was just one moment away from their own. Chanho Park or Bobby Bonilla thing. And guess what? MSNBC talked themselves in believing into the echo chamber that woke was the future, that progressive was the future.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
And they talked themselves into believing that this is what they need to do for Rachel Maddow. I think it's that simple. I'm not picking on anybody. I'm not calling anybody names. And when I say, you know, that can be adequately explained by stupidity. I'm quoting a maxim. Never assume malice is at fault. If you can just say, man, they maybe they were just dumb that day. Yeah.

You see 207,000 people. It goes all the way to 2.1 million in 2024. These are non-citizens that are getting Social Security numbers. Yeah, this is a mind-blowing chart.

In the annals of sports history, there have been athletes that had ill-advised relationships with celebrities that didn't go well.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
By the way, Matt Kemp had his worst year after he lost the MVP to, I believe, Ryan Braun, who had actually... a juiced and influenced FedEx career. Anyway, it was a big controversy. And the next year, Matt was completely distracted because he was making the party circuit in L.A. and he was dating Rihanna. True story.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So Matt Kemp, who could have been MVP, should have been MVP the next year, was dating Rihanna. And he was completely distracted, completely everything.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Well, two things. There's the art of the deal going on here. And you can see President Trump does it all the time. Push really hard on a position. Pin. Pin them. But then back off and give them an opportunity to move to a spot you want them to move. And that's what he just did here. He... The...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Other side now – and he's also hedging – he's hedging the bet because this side has been in a statistical tie over the last couple weeks and now is slightly ahead in the polling. The conservatives are slightly behind because –
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Pierre Polivet has been really kind of fumbling the lead and opportunity he had to the point that he got one of the fellow conservatives kind of to do an RFK move to join him. So what Trump is doing here, I think he's pushing hard, but then he's giving a compliment and giving them an opportunity to move, to move to a spot they want. And also... Pat, take a look at what the prime minister said.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
What was the first word and the second word of what he said, Pat? The time will come for a broad renegotiation of our first word, security relationship, and second word, trade relationship, which is what Pat has been talking about Mexico and Canada for a long time. They only spend this much of their GDP because they know we are the real protection power and what we spend on GDP protects them.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
And it's interesting, isn't it?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
And to answer your question, I do believe a deal is in the background. Because remember, Trump wants a economic and trade deal. He doesn't want a public policy deal. Let Canada handle their own public policy if they want to vote liberal, conservative. But Trump wants his economic trade deal. And I believe the answer to what you asked me, Pat, is yes. A framework of a deal was put in place.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Okay, good. We're good here. I'll tell you what. I'm going to go say something. As long as I have your word, I'm going to go say something. And that's it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Well, my thoughts on this is obviously... First of all, I really appreciate this guy saying, hey, I'm in favor of legal immigration and thanking the people that were working in the SSA, Social Security Administration, who cooperated with them and said, hey, you're here looking for waste and fraud. You need to see this.
PBD Podcast

It's a snap election. It was permitted April 28th.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So that means that there are people in the Social Security Administration who are realizing what was happening. And what do I think about this? I think the administration in power at the time was a Biden administration and the support of Schumer and Pelosi were very, very liberal on this issue. They were issuing Social Security numbers to non-citizens.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
They were helping people who got here to stay here and work here legally. And by the way, vinaigrette or give you some here and ask a question so uh... every state in the nation You have to be a citizen and you have to have a social security number to get a real estate license or an insurance license. And Pat would know something about that.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
He founded that vision and built one of the largest insurance distribution companies in history. And guess what? We would go to the states and say, well, all the person has is an I-10, which is a temporary number. Sorry, can't be an agent. If he has a social security number and then they lied to us about citizenship, guess what? State of California, state of Texas wouldn't know.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
You now you're now you've got this. So they're giving Social Security numbers out to people, I believe, knowing full well that they're helping them hide in plain sight as illegals because you go up to get a job and they and they say, do you have Social Security card? Yes, I do. I'll show you my Social Security card, my number right here. And you fill out a what's it called? An I-9 with them.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Dude, this is just a political miscalculation by Pierre. Nightmare. Of a freaking Olympic level. He gets the gold medal for political miscalculations. Right. I'm not picking on him as a human being. I'm saying is this was a terrible miscalculation. And now he's in this corner. And by the way, there are a lot of people put comments on this. Say we get Canada right and wrong and things like this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But I'll tell you, Ontario or Toronto is Quebec or Montreal is that's like New York and California. That's where the weight that's where the weight of the populace is. But you go to. You go to UConn, Northwest Territory, Alberta. Alberta is the Texas of Canada. Saskatchewan and Manitoba. And you find people that are annoyed with what's happened with the Trump tariffs.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But these are conservative people that are looking around, shaking their heads, saying, what just happened? They see this stuff, too. And by the way, Polymarket's only one poll. It's a little closer than that. But Polyved never should have squandered this lead, never should have gone this. And it's because guess what? One guy came from the Bank of England.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
One guy came from a business, was making decisions. And the other guy was making speeches. And the guy making speeches make terrible miscalculations. Pat is absolutely correct on this, how it shakes out. And I think you need to look a little deeper at the people of Canada because there's some conservatives in Western Canada that are pretty pissed off right now.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
They're annoyed with Trump, yes, but they're pissed off that they're a conservative leader. How did we blow this thing? All we had to do was survive to the election, and we're going to take care of Justin Trudeau. And we're finally going to be out under that 10-year problem. And then this happens? How do they feel?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Is that I think that's the form that an employee has to fill out to say that they're a citizen on I-9. And so this is the previous administration giving Social Security numbers out so people can hide in plain sight who are actually not citizens.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So I think there's something really dangerous about Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom is running right now, and you'll see if you watch this interview with Bill Maher. Bill Maher asked him, why don't you run? You're capable. You can do it. And he won't answer the question. He won't answer the question and say that he's running, but he is running, and that's what's going on here.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
And what's interesting, what's very, very interesting, he said, we own the failed governance in California because— But I said there's a new day last year and that we own the response of reform. You hear that response of reform, Vinny?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
We own the response of reform. That is the wolf in sheep's clothing. That is what's coming. This is a political posturing issue. You know, it's not like when Bill Clinton ran to the middle and governed from the middle, because if you look at Arkansas, I actually think he kind of was a bit of a centrist. He was always a liberal, but he kind of governed from the center. It was not controversial.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I-9, you fill that out, and you have to show something. So here's my Social Security number. Here's my driver's license. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
It didn't create a lot of problems. And he got a lot of stuff done. And Newsom is not that. This is, I believe, what Newsom is showing. And I'd love to sit down and talk with him and challenge him on this, saying, how do you keep tweaking your positions like this? Don't you see what this looks like? Is this really the way you feel? If this is the way you feel, why didn't you say this last year?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I'd love to hear him kind of unpack that and who he is and then ask him, say, why didn't you answer Bill Maher? Are you running or are you not, big dog?

diminishing so what is that about can you look what i believe look this up i believe the family support act was if you were claiming dependence on your tax return they had to have social security number and sometimes people wouldn't get social security numbers for their kids and so they were 16 and going to get a job so i think that 15 million in two years was so that people could had to put a valid social security number on their tax return taxes to identify a dependent okay

It wasn't a political response. There was no grandstanding in speeches. It was get squat done. What do you do on insurance that's such an impact on the family?

And don't forget the legal industry that goes hand-in-hand with that, Pat. There's more. Those are PIs.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
You know, your point you just made, Congressman, is my point. When you are too qualified or too informed, there is massive risk to the establishment, and they will find ways to scream that you are not qualified. So that's point one. The screams at RFK should ratify for everyone that he's the guy for this job.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The second is there have been things exposed where we have been like a frog boiled in the pot on HSS for a while. Just I'll give you one example. Food dyes. Everywhere else in the world, food dyes and certain red dyes are not allowed in foods. We still use them.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
If you look at Froot Loops in Canada and Froot Loops in the United States, Froot Loops in the United States is like high-definition television color. You look at Froot Loops everywhere else, well, we use different dyes. And they use different dyes for a reason, including things that relate to hyperactivity in kids. Gee, is that a problem? Oh, no problem. We'll just fill them full of Ritalin.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
There you go. Oh, yeah, they're beautiful. Beautiful. See that? Those are food dyes that are only allowed in the United States because lobbyists ensured they could get them there because they want to be able to market brightly colored fruit loops. And this is just one of the things that RFK has brought up. So he's not out there with these weird vax positions.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
He's out there saying, why is the rest of the world doing this with the studies that are here? And then the third thing I get to, whenever you see people in Congress screaming, Find out who screamed at them before they walked in that room. Oh, that's very true. It's like the people that were screaming at Elizabeth Warren were on her phone. You better knock this MF off. You better get this down.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And it's all the money that you pointed out. Especially the $14.3 million in PAC money. Because when they scream and they look a little theatrical, find out who screamed at them an hour ago.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
This guy walked into a fist.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Well, guess what? What everybody has found out after COVID, going back to work now, is coming to the federal government. And Congressman made a comment here that I want to amplify. There are buildings that your taxpayer dollars are paying for that need maintenance and are practically empty, but the leasing, the landscaping, the basic maintenance, and the power keeping it warm and cool for nobody.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
You know, to work there is there. So when all of that comes back on the market, the cost for commercial building space in that market is going to come down a little bit. And maybe a business that is expanding that needs to use the space would appreciate a lease that comes down because if the supply comes up, the price will come down.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It's not going to crash, but it's going to come down a little bit and it's going to come out of the taxpayer pocket. And that resource would be available for business people and businesses are expanding or whoever needs that, like maybe schools in the inner city that need space. Point one. Point two is studies came out and there was, you know, I like to talk about it.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
There was an organization that failed, but it was at Verizon. It was Verizon Media called Oath. And Tim Armstrong came out almost immediately and said, we have a lot of younger people that are early in their careers working here. And guess what? They're not getting promoted as fast. They're not developing as fast. They're not mentoring their people as well.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
They're not coaching their people as well because they're not effing here. That's right. And he got out there because, remember, Verizon was leaning with the FCC, leaning hard liberal, and they were really annoyed that, yeah, Oath, and it was Tim Armstrong that came out of AOL, I believe, sometime prior to that.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
But he put his butt on his neck on the line and said, look, this isn't working because people aren't getting mentored. So that didn't happen. Then they started looking at transactional work. How many calls per hour? How many policies processed per hour? And guess what? The facts weren't there. So all of this comment about, oh, I was more effective from home, effective. Yeah, be careful.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Words like effectiveness were used. Feeling words were used. It wasn't numbers.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Well, overnight there was a story about Gitmo and potentially being used because it will hold up the $30,000 of the criminal element, the absolute bona fide criminal element among the illegal aliens with the president overnight saying, I kind of like to use Gitmo.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Thank you, Wikipedia. And use that because these people are criminals and they should be in a jail. And I guess the president said, and the last time I checked, Gitmo is hard to get out of. So maybe that's a good place for the criminal element that is illegal aliens and to save the space while we're moving the rest of the folks.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, it appears, you know, I'm not the NTSB, but I was reading everything this morning. Everybody else said that the airport was operating normally. No rain, no snow, you know, clear night and just comings and goings and landings. And the CRJ from Wichita just coming in normally. And there's a routine training mission and we're.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The helicopters cross over airfield and over flight lines, which – and it just appears that the helicopter, for whatever reason, didn't pass behind it, obviously, and so that the CRJ was just on a normal land. So this is – The military helicopter and its operations or what it was doing on training just ran right into the civilian traffic. That's what I saw this morning in reading all this.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, and just to show you what it was, they say the aircraft is traveling 140 miles an hour. That's two miles a minute, right?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And they're saying it was 2,400 feet off runway, and a mile is 5,280. So it is a half mile off, so it's 15 seconds off runway.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So this is not, you know what I'm saying? That's like you've seen it where you see the lights going underneath you and you're about to land. They were just about to land.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Here he comes. Fat shaming, discrimination.

But I also had heard about the Champagne Index, that the high-end wines and champagne, that that is another, you know, very, very clear index. I find the Underwear Index and Alan Greenspan funny. Alan Greenspan, we talk about interest rates. What concerns you about the economy? Well, you know, the Underwear Index has really got me bothered. I just can't see Alan Greenspan talking about that.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yep, and I got 132, so we're in that zone.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
First of all, I think there's a horror going on with that generation. And that is, if you don't have $20... in your checking account, in your bank, so you could use your ATM card connected to Apple Pay or whatever you connect to your DoorDash thing, there's a problem there. There is a serious problem. You have an income problem. That you would actually say, Klarna, now here's what DoorDash wants.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
They want the same thing any other retailer wants, whether you're selling... It doesn't matter what you're selling. They want more ability to pay so they can maximize customer opportunities... For sure. ...to buy from them. Yes. That's normal. So DoorDash is like, well, we do it this way, this way, this way, this way. You know, Klarna, okay, come on in. All right, what's the deal?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And we make a deal with Klarna. The shocking part of it is the reason they're thinking about making that deal is because what they're looking at. And this is really... The $20, $70 is not wrong because if you miss a payment on BNPL, the fees are heavy. These interest rates are 35% and more. And so... You don't have a little bit in your checking account, and you use BNPL to buy dinner?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
That is insane. Yeah, so late charges are big. And so two months, you're late on your bill and everything. All of a sudden, you look back at what you paid. It's like, woof. It's like when people run out on Black Friday. How many times have we talked about it? Actually, Adam talks about it when he talks about saving that money.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
If you go out on Black Friday and buy that TV on sale with a 27% credit card and then take six months to pay for the TV, the TV is no longer on sale. You just paid all that interest. Adam, thoughts?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I did not know. I'm just reading this here. This says before all this started, the top four most expensive cars to insure were Teslas.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yeah, I remember. Hyundai and Kia or something like that. And Sonata. and Sol and Forte were criticized by the American Insurance Institute because of the ease in which they can be broken in and stolen.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Well, those... The Hyundai and Kia, the Insurance Institute was saying, hey, these things are so easy to sell, to steal, that what we're about to do is innocent middle class Americans that are buying those because they think it's an economical car on gas and it's small and all that. They're about to find out that they're going to be more to insure.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So what they were saying is the long-term condition was about to lead to the increase in insurance. And we saw the guy, as you pointed out on YouTube, saying these are easy to steal. And they, yeah, Hyundai and Kia better do something about it. Boom. Now, this is a short-term condition. And so the question is, and by the way, here we go again. You know, every one of the...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Headlines that you see about Tesla or about Trump, the economy, look for the could and should because everybody's in this could and should game. So if there's a long-term condition here, I think they would raise the rates. But they've got to get control of this. Pambandi is saying, oh, you want to do this? I will label you a domestic terrorist. You don't want that.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
You don't want to light a car on fire and get labeled as a domestic terrorist.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
No. I think there has been one guy that the answer is yes so far, and I haven't seen any legislation come down, but Pam Bondi has said several times, has she not, Rob, over the last two weeks, you will be charged with domestic terrorism. You don't want that because that's a federal felony. Thank you.

Zelensky press conference live from the Grassy Knoll.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Trump calls Elon. Elon did what he said he could have done under the Biden administration. And what's annoying to me, Pat, is that the Biden administration didn't do the right thing for our own astronauts because they didn't want to give the win to Elon Musk during the election.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And I think we have to be fair about something. You just said Biden left them to die. I don't think he left them to die. I think that's a little strong. But they were supposed to be up there for eight days. And how long were they there? They were up there for nine months.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
But it was on the International Space Station. They had water, they had food, the resources up there. But what happened to their bodies over those nine months?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
This is very, very big because, believe it or not, these programs, what we don't see is who they're actually helping. There are a lot of veterans that are helped by these programs. There are a lot of American citizens like in western North Carolina when things happen that get help. It's not just FEMA.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
FEMA can help you rebuild your house, but there's also programs in there that are trying to help people who need it. And if we're taking off the supplemental voter program, I'm sorry, the illegal aliens, then I think that's a good thing. The money gets routed back to, you know, Americans who do it. And I'll say something else here. Kristi Noem?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
You give her a report card over the first 60 days here, it's pretty strong. You know, redirecting the Coast Guard into the Gulf of America, the huge drug bust in Fort Lauderdale. Kristi Noem is really, to me, guess what? A governor. And governors, we have 51 CEOs in America. They're governors and the president. And I feel like she's been acting...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
has a really good... acting very well and has a great report card for me, but I love to see this because Americans who live here and pay taxes and find themselves at the crossroads in life that get support from a program like this, this is what... The program is about not to say, hey, keep coming across, keep coming across. I got a place for you. Here's your government cheese.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Here's your free cell phone. Here's all these things we give you to get the immigrants on their feet when you've got loss of manufacturing jobs and, you know, hurricanes that were in western North Carolina and all these places where real Americans needed the support.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Thank you, Scott Turner. Thank you, Christine Ohm.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Remember the giant MS-13 roundup, El Salvador prison? Of course. She's there saying, if you want to mess with us, you're going to be down here right behind me.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And it's not just screen printed. Those are like thick letters.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
You don't see the guys off to the side with the machine guns. Yeah, of course. These guys were pretty, all those kindergartners were very quiet, standing in line.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So here she is again. So what she said is headlines. Oh, she wants to get rid of FEMA, and FEMA is there to rescue you when a hurricane comes. No. Quote, I would say, yes, get rid of FEMA the way it exists today. It's the same statement that they made about the Department of Education. The Department of Education wasn't helping K-12 schools.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Test scores weren't going up, and big grants were being given by the Department of Education to Ivy League schools. How does that help K-12? That doesn't. It's been redirected. FEMA... Look at all the stories when Hurricane Helene happened in western North Carolina that I've mentioned that area like three times today. What happened?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
We had stories of people saying independent groups, church groups that had actually chartered helicopters were not allowed to do certain things. FEMA is jurisdiction here, and we can't have extra aircraft in the air. We've got to wait for that. Remember all that? Vinny, remember that? Of course. It says FEMA is here. Well, they were doing a terrible job. Yep. They were doing a terrible job.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And so the governors, she's saying just like, hey, let's send from the Department of Education. Let's send the grants for autism support and all these things to the states. Here's your grant to go do good things to enhance what you're already doing education. What she's saying, hey, look, when you're overrun by.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
by a disaster, we want to send the relief to the local officials, the governor and the first responders who can see what everything has happened, not wait for FEMA people to come parachuting in and say, well, I'm in charge here and I'm going to do it. No, she's like, let's get the resources there. I love this move.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Because you're going to see a whole bunch of bureaucracy squeeze out of Washington, D.C., and what's left is the fun the way it should be because hurricanes happen. Tornadoes happen in Oklahoma. And hurricanes happen in Florida. Earthquakes and wildfires happen in California, especially if you irresponsibly manage your state and you leave all the tinder out there to burn.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And why shouldn't FEMA send grants to help the states?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Who would be frightened of this taking place? I would say the The Washington bureaucrats that have jobs, number one, and all the command and control Democrats who are scared of strong governors. Because remember, they don't want strong governors. They want the Department of Education to control the outcome. They want all of the federal programs to be in control. That is a tenet of socialism.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
They don't want the governors to be making decisions for their state that the governors was elected to do. They want to be controlling those governors from Washington. The bureaucrats at the top of this, the Mayorkas, they wouldn't want any of this. They would say, no, no, no, we're in charge here. We're in charge here. Adam.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Even more reason that federal partisan bureaucrats should not be calling that shot. Bingo.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Bye, Dad. Governor DeSantis, what else do you need? I see you're building the bridge back to the island faster than we could. What else do you need, sir?

You're both right. Consequences happen, but it was happening in the first place.

Thank you, Jonah Platt. Oh, my gosh. He's absolutely right. You know, the first person, your dad flew to New York to reprimand a young actress. No, he flew to New York to reprimand an employee or a contractor who was employed on the film. And, oh, she's exercising freedom of speech. Well, guess what? If somebody walks into Pat's office and says...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I think you're a piece of crap and you don't run the company very well and says, OK, well, look, I'm sorry you don't want to work here anymore. And we've set that up right now. Goodbye. You get your wish. Go take it somewhere. You don't have freedom of speech like that. Freedom of speech is Pat respecting or any leader respecting. Hey, I like the Yankees. I like Boston.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And, you know, I disagree with this. I disagree with that. I'll be voting this way. And you can have that in your persona. But when you come out and the freedom of speech was to condemn the very thing that you're paid to build. Are you kidding me that someone I'm more shocked by the the the post that came before than the one that came after?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Because the one that came before is someone who obviously has no clue at. Literally no clue to conclude that. And I love Platt's first saying, you really want to do this? I love his first saying, you really want to do this? I love that.
PBD Podcast

Well, if this keeps up, they're going to have to start cutting talent at ESPN. They're going to possibly put ESPN up for sale. They're going to cut programming. Oh, wait a minute. They already did that. Checking notes. Yeah, they're already doing that.

Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Well, first of all, this is a big mistake. And second of all, Mike Waltz has said, you know, the buck stops with me. It's my organization. We're looking at how it happened. And, you know, I'm responsible. And so I like the fact that Waltz has said, hey, I'm responsible. If this was the other way around, you know, the Republicans would be hammering this, too.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So one side is giving the other side a big nail sticking up and the other side is just hammering on that nail. And that's what's going on. Now, what am I happy about? Thank you. Thank you.

Bless you, Rob. Well, it's down in the last trailing 30, trailing 60 as market sentiment is reacting negatively. to the tariffs and what that could do to future earnings.

I don't know, but when me and my homies were talking about this situation, me and my homies were talking about this situation, and we weren't down with the flop at all. No, I got two things to say. And the first thing I'm going to say, one man was doing his job. 7,000 people voted, Rob.

Tom is giving up on his own ways. Go ahead. He's about that life. We're going to go to another story. Go ahead, homie. There's two things in my mind that are very, very clear. One is I thought Stephen A. Smith was doing his job and doing it very professionally, and the reaction he had I do not think was acting. I happen to believe...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
my opinion that what I saw there, LeBron knew the cameras were rolling. That's what I'm saying. LeBron knew it was going on. I think he took it personal. It wasn't about defending his son. I think he took it personal. He was upset. And I think he walked in front of Stephen A there on the court to do the equivalent of take a flop for the cameras. That's what I think.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And I think Stephen A was just doing his job, and I think he was very articulate. And I applaud Stephen A for stepping up and saying, listen, I don't think it's about your home. I think it's about what we're doing here at Crypto.com Arena. That's what I was speaking about. We're not speaking about this. Don't try to make it what it's not.

So... Some of these indicators are interesting headlines, and it's something that business media can put out. This is from Business Insider. But there are several of these indicators that are very real, and people that track the economy watch them. I watch the cardboard box indicator because that is a clear indication of shipping, and you can see more or less happening.

Also, what's very interesting is when inflation and when times are tough, the snacks are down. People aren't buying the bag. I don't mean Halloween. They're not buying the bag of, like, Snickers minis and those little treats and stuff. Those stay out of the grocery cart because, you know, things are a little tough.

And I have never in my life, and I think everybody on this podcast, what people know is that we're not partying and none of us have full liquor closets at home.

What's a little alarming to me is I really was bummed out to see, I hadn't heard about this before, the diaper rash indicator, that parents would actually leave the diaper on their kid a little bit longer because now if you've walked down the diaper aisle, It's expensive. Diapers are not cheap. They're very expensive.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And so, by the way, if you know people that have kids, one of the greatest gifts you can give them is those newborn diapers. Go to Costco, get a couple of those big, giant shrink wrap things because they're expensive. But I didn't know about that one before.

Well, first of all, David Shipley was basically... running the opinion side of the Trump hit piece Gazette, is what it was. And that's how this thing was rolling.

My show had value. My show had value. Yeah, well, it didn't have viewership anymore. And viewership is what gets the bills paid. And this thinking that people are entitled in the media, that once you're in the chair, the owner of the company cannot tell you what to do or tell what's going on. And Bezos just said, look, let's focus on personal liberties and free markets.
PBD Podcast
Epstein Files Release, Trump Gold Card Visa, Andrew Tate In US, Newsom's Podcast | PBD Podcast | Ep. 553
You know what personal liberty is? Free speech. You know what personal liberty? Freedom of religion. That's what personal liberties are. And free markets. So Bezos is saying, as the owner of this, I think that's what we should be about. And this guy says no to that. Because if you go look at the history, he was just running Trump Hit Piece Gazette. But I love the way Bezos put it to him.

Wegen der Verbrechung der Familie in kulturellen Teilen in Amerika. Es ist so einfach wie das. Das ist kein rassistisches Statement, sondern ein statistisches Statement.

47 Prozent der Mütter in der schwarzen Gemeinschaft sind Single Mütter. Ich glaube, das ist das, was das sagt. Ja, das ist das, was das sagt. Und wenn man sich diese Statistik anschaut, that the African Americans, I don't think, have crossed 16% of the population of America at any given time. I think they've been just below 16, 14, 13, but it's been right in that zone.

Yet, yet, they are 40 to 44% of the abortions annually, which means that abortion, thank you Planned Parenthood, has been a black genocide, perpetrated by the Democratic Party. There I said it. And in the communities where you've got the unemployment and you've got the breakdown of the family, you've got single moms. And that's what's going on. And nobody wants to talk about it.

But the breakdown of the family and the breakdown of standards in the family and you look at the Asian market and you look at the How low it is. What's it, 7%? Yep, there it is. 38-40% of all abortions. Significantly higher than the proportion of the overall population, which is under 17%. Why is that? And then you take a look at that. And then you take a look at the family.

Bevor Sie zurück in die Mittleren Ängste gehen, war das nicht Christentum. Das waren Regierungen wie Spanien und Torquemada und die Tauern von London.

PBD Podcast
Epstein Files Release, Trump Gold Card Visa, Andrew Tate In US, Newsom's Podcast | PBD Podcast | Ep. 553
And you want to know what the result of that? The United States of America. Because the pilgrims... They were basically political refugees. And so they came here. And so the United States came here as a source of Christian persecution and people that wanted to leave. They were also non-Christians who just wanted to leave what was the kings and queens.

What do you think about this story? Two things. First of all... We could have five weeks of podcasts and talk about broken healthcare in the United States, from the cost of medicines to insurance claims and medical bankruptcies. We could do all that.

PBD Podcast
Epstein Files Release, Trump Gold Card Visa, Andrew Tate In US, Newsom's Podcast | PBD Podcast | Ep. 553
But we have to think about it. That was a guy, you know, oh, he's a CEO and he makes a lot of money. No, he was a guy with a job that got murdered, shot in the back, cowardly. And the guy that shot him is suddenly a hero. This is the same way, you know, you've seen this so many times in history. Che. All these kids are wearing Che Guevara shirts.

The bomber. He's so hot. And look how Rolling Stone chose to use almost like this hot new teen voice Ja, genau. And it's also a terrible sign of what has happened in healthcare in the US that led somebody to the point that they were going to say, okay, I'm going to take up arms against my oppressor, and your oppressor was a corporate guy with a job.

On the law, if you want, I have the background on the law. Prop 36 went before the voters and the voters, California, 68.4% passed Prop 36. And here's what happened. The 950 is an important number because now they also said 950 could be aggregate. It used to be that if an item was under a thousand, now it's 950 as an aggregate. So when those girls stole all that stuff from Target,

There are nine CVSs in the city of San Francisco, and most of those are in the more wealthy areas, such as the Marina District. And so the consequences also on the people. So when the government thinks that they're winning votes from these people, they're really screwing other people like older people and folks who are living in areas that need a CVS there so they can get services.

And Joe Manchin is right. The rebel policies, the rebel policies that he's talking about, He says, isn't the Democrat Party you recognize how you're not helping the people when you're there? It is. CBS makes another SF store. When you when you run amok, the consequences are everybody loses. It's not just Manchin. That's what we just saw.

You're asking a great question. It's the word decriminalization. They talk about decriminalize marijuana, decriminalize possession of a certain amount of marijuana, keep the penalties for distribution. There's a slippery slope when you start decriminalizing. Then they say, well, we're all clogged up with all these $500 shoplifting things and businesses have insurance.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Remember, these are liberal far left Democrats talking. So maybe we should decriminalize shoplifting. We'll make it under $1,000. That's what they did. That's what happened. The number of break-ins, you can go Google it and say break-ins for auto theft break-ins, people stealing backpacks. That backpack had a basic laptop that was worth less than $1,000.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
They were selling it at pawn shops for $200, making $200 on that. But it was a non-criminalized offense because what they stole was worth less than $1,000. So guess what? Crime went up. actually. And the number of shoplifting cases went down. So what happened to society? Society lost. So were the courts less crowded with $500 shoplifting? Yes. But guess what happened? You enabled more crime.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
There it is. Vehicle theft reports. And it's also vehicle break-ins, Rob. It was vehicle break-ins in San Francisco. That people would leave their cars on lock with a note on the door that said nothing in the truck, nothing in the seats.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
You would actually leave your car as clean as a rental car, if you know what I mean, and not lock it so that they wouldn't break the window and you wouldn't have to have your window replaced. But you left nothing in there that they could take, not even quarters sitting in the ashtray, nothing. So that's what happened.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
It's the word decriminalization, which in the mind of the liberal far left Democrat is these people are stealing to survive and they accept it. They accept it as a redistribution of wealth. That's how the Democrats think about decriminalization. One quick point.

Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So, Tommy Carter... was trying to make the United States look less like an imperial power. What does imperial mean? Well, it's like the US and Puerto Rico. It's like the French in Algiers and Morocco, where the large established countries had established beachheads and influence over foreign countries. And Carter was on this human rights campaign, which largely failed.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Good heart in the right position, but he didn't get it done. He didn't want us to look so imperial. And he thought, wow, one of the ways we can do this is give Panama the canal back. But we have to remember what happened. In the name of Western trade, the United States built that canal. The U.S. built it and 75%... Was Vietnam a terrible war?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And I believe the number was 55 to 57,000 men died in Vietnam. 75% of that number died building the Panama Canal. Malaria, disease, things we didn't have really our arms around preparing these workers for down there in these tropical regions and disease went around and it was terrible. So it was, I think it was south of 40,000, but more than 35,000 people died there. So we're looking at it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
We built this to facilitate trade. One of the things that Carter did was Panama asked him, history, and no one wants to talk about this in mainstream media. They said- Who's going to help defend it? Because we were all worried about communism and militarized communism in Central America at the time. We were worried about it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Reagan would come in and get after it in Central America on the communists. We were worried about communists closing the canal to international trade. So we said, hey, part of giving it back to you for a dollar, we did the Neutrality Act. The canal will be neutral. But who will be the cops? And who will pay for the cops? Estados Unidos. We paid for the cops.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
We will pay for the cops. We will be the cops. We will do military. We'll do security. We will not allow insurgencies. We will defend the canal. So we took on the full expense of it. When Panama in the 90s couldn't afford certain maintenance on these things, they're called locks, where the ships go in, they raise the water, and they close these things called locks. Guess who paid for that?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
We appropriated. So we have been maintaining. We built it. We've been doing maintenance. We've been protecting it with our military guys against this. And so now what Trump is saying, the mainstream media doesn't want to talk about because it's bad orange man all over again. He's saying we're going to take it back.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And we're going to protect it from China or anybody else that wants to influence and potentially close it or influence it. And by the way, it's 40 years behind in certain repairs. 40 freaking years. So it also needs work so it keeps and stays open. So, you know, everybody wants to say, oh, Trump's doing this and that. No, he's actually trying to protect the business interests of many people.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
All the Caribbean nations that are doing business, import, export, they get it through their food. All kinds of stuff go there. So everybody wants to jump on Trump for this. But the truth is much deeper.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Yeah, you know what? During COVID, remember we heard that the Somalis and the Houthis were operating right there in a little area. Adam's nodding. He knows exactly where I'm going here. I'm pronouncing it wrong. Djibouti? Djibouti. You're not Djibouti.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
We make jokes about how it's pronounced, but that is the pinch point where container ships go up there to go through the other canal that enables low-cost transport, the Suez Canal. The Panama and the Suez Canal are the two most critical... See the pinch point right there? That's where the... Houthi rebels and the Somali-enabled rebels were there.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And if you expand that, go right up there, go up north of that a little bit, you are going to find the Suez Canal. See, it widens up there, but you see that pinch point? They patrol down there and they create problems down there. And by the way... That led to huge inflation because if you zoom out, these are called the Cape routes.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
What Pat was talking about is the Cape route around Cape Horn, which is Terra del Fuego, south of Chile. And there's also the other Cape route known as Cape of Good Hope, which is in South Africa. So the shipping containers have to go there. These two canals are critical. We didn't even know we were really talking about the same political dynamic for the Panama Canal.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
We were talking about the Suez Canal when at the end of COVID, we had all the rebels there and the container ships couldn't get through. And people were saying that it was inflationary to the people of Europe just trying to get basic goods because they had to have that extra shipping cost line on them.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So the canals in modern world, these two canals, are critical also to inflation because it keeps shipping costs down for people. So everybody wants to talk about Trump being imperialist. Guess what? He's also trying to keep shipping costs and keep that part of inflation down for the consumer.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Who did they turn to to help them knock down the Somali pirates?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And we were helping the world in the Suez Canal stay open. Tom, he's trying to get to Adam and Djibouti.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I got two things to say. If you've got the National Guard helping you do anything, that means you have failed as a governor because it means your state and local law enforcement are insufficient or improperly trained or constrained because you won't let them do certain things. So you get the National Guard when the problem is bigger than you can handle. That's what she's got on the subway.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So the mere fact she's got National Guard. I'm going to go to somewhere else. Says Kathy Hochul. beat Lee Zeldin in the closest gubernatorial election in 20 years, going back to 94. She won 53-47 over Lee Zeldin.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
If you take a look at the way the precincts lined up, if the governorship had been up right now in November when Trump was elected, when you see the compression that happened, there it is, 53-47. When you see the compression that happened in the Trump election of how close it was for Trump, he lost New York, but it was far closer. Zeldin would have beat Hochul four weeks ago, would have beat her.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So now what I'm looking at is New Yorkers, 2026 is coming. You need conservative leadership in the governor's mansion, number one. And number two, this situation, this is her Willie Horton moment. Michael Dukakis had a furlough program, and Willie Horton got out in Massachusetts in 87, 88, and killed again. And he was absolutely pilloried, as he should have been at the polls.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Kathy Hochul, this is your Willie Horton moment. You have released people out that were deported. You have castrated your own police force and not let them do things that need to be done. And you've got the National Guard, at U.S. taxpayer expense— bailing out New York. New York citizens, 26 is coming. The midterms are coming.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
If they had elected a governor right now, Pat, Zeldin would have beat Hochul right now. It's coming. Change is coming, New York.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I was just saying, getting back to your original point, this is Marxism. AOC point blank said, she blamed weeks ago, Daniel Penny was to blame for the subways being unsafe. Marxists want revolution. So someone that goes out and kills and does this is a tool in their war. It's the war they see from their side.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
AOC gets cornered two days ago and her security detail whisked her away. She did not answer the question. You said Daniel Penney makes the subways more unsafe. What about this woman that just burned? No one jumped in. She didn't answer the question. She was whisked away by her security.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So she's been confronted twice that I have seen by independent journalists that are trying to get a comment from her on the burning. She won't talk about it. After weeks ago, she point blank said Daniel Penney. is making things more unsafe. Is this it, Ron?

I think the star of that clip wasn't Don Lemon. The star of that clip is a citizen that says, I'm just trying to live my life and get a little bit better. I don't trust any of this. And that is a message they don't want to hear. The star is that guy just speaking up and pushing back and getting a little loud, saying, no, no, no, no, no. You don't understand. We don't trust any of that.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I'm just out here trying to do my stuff, trying to make my life better. That's the star. That's the American citizen that they don't want to hear from. Adam.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I think there are cases where you look at it and you wonder if the reform is even possible. I mean, remember... We call them prisons now, but once upon a time, they were deemed to be correctional facilities where you would go to debtor's prison to work your way out of debt, basically doing all this work and everything to get out. We're past that.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Federal prisons now, I looked this up, so you can check me on this, Rob. Federal prisons right now run about $120 a day or $44,000 a year. So you say to yourself, okay, hang on. If someone is not redeemable and you don't think that they can come back, And they're, what, 40 years old, and they lived to 80 years in a prison. You got 40 years times 44,000. So the U.S.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
taxpayers are going to have a, there it is, 120, yeah, 116, 120, right on it. So basically, if these guys live to 80, it's going to toss the taxpayer $1.8 million each by my quick. So $3.6 million. So the first question is, are they even redeemable? The second question is, society is now going to pay almost $4 million to keep them in prison.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And then the next question is, do you run into something where you say, you know what? You know, this is you've crossed the line here. It's time to use capital punishment in other ways than an eye for an eye. And I think you look at it and say, you know what? You know, if you were to ask some of these prisoners that are lifers, do you want to stay in the prison system or would you like to opt out?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
What do you mean? Would you like to tap out? You get cancer in certain countries, you can get an assisted suicide. Would you like to tap out? Otherwise, you're going to be here for 40 years and you're going to get incredible abuse because prisoners are not kind to child molesters. They are not. You look in the U.S. prison system. That seems to be the one area that all the prisoners are united on.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And you know what? The child molesters are have horrible things happen to them. I'm talking about beatings, punishments, a lot of things. So these guys may not make it past 60. Someone may shiv them in prison. Shiv is a prison term for creating a knife out of something and killing someone. And so I think, you know, you look at it, you say, guys, you know what? You can opt out.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
It's going to cost us $4 million to take care of you or you're going to be, we're going to close one eye and let these prisoners take justice on you. Come on, dude. I mean, but do you go all the way to capital punishment? I'd love to put it to a vote of the people the same way the Californian people voted on that. Put it to a vote of the people.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I don't think they're redeemable and I see a path to lethal injection here. Personally, I do.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Well, I think the probability is low right now, but it's rising every minute. And what you're saying about CNN, MSNBC, they're so marginal right now. And by the way, it's also happening to Fox. Fox is admitting that cable news is going down. They didn't renew Neil Cavuto. He was offered a much lower contract, and yet he was kind of this more moderate voice. Guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
The money's got to come from somewhere. So you're going to have marginal stations like MSNBC, which is for sale right now, but they can't find anybody to buy it. CNN has been for sale. They were walking around with cocktail napkins that had NDAs to buy CNN at the Allen & Company conference. All of a sudden, they did that, and it got together.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And if you take this money out, there's also something else that happens. The valuation of sports franchises goes down. Because sports franchises are being lifted up by the value of TV contracts. TV contracts are being supported by $15, $16 billion per year, per year of sports advertising. So never mind the economic part of it. But I think there's a 20% chance of success on this.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
But I think it's rising every single day because the rest of the world, it doesn't work this way. It doesn't work this way, the rest of the world. Europe, no advertising. Even Africa, no advertising. No advertising in Japan, Korea, Australia, Western nations. Now, New Zealand, little island off the coast of, uh, you know, Australia, they allow it and we allow it, but that's it. That is it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So this would not be an unprecedented move. This would bring the globe, you know, into alignment on this. And that's, I'll say it again. I think it's 20% and rising every day, but I agree. Bobby needs protection.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I understand. The 1993 movie, The Fugitive, go back and watch it. It's not so far-fetched, is it? Harrison Ford's wife gets killed, and it's a whole plot by pharma who covered up side effects of a drug and then killed a bunch of people. And by the end of the movie, to find out who killed his wife, Harrison Ford uncovers the whole plot. Not so crazy.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I think Stephen A, you know, is seeing facts and he's speaking to facts. He sees the facts and he's going down the list of facts. They did this. They did this. So things have been exposed at the election immediately thereafter. Stephen A is seeing that and he's speaking to it. I respect that. Now, how much did he know? Did he have a hunch beforehand?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Any reasonable person would have had to have more than a hunch about a lot of things going on. But I respect that Stephen A has gone on. And what you're seeing is I think he's upset because there's a degree of embarrassment. They were all asked to use their megaphone, every one of them. And some of them, like Oprah, were paid to use their megaphone. They cashed checks.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And now they come out and they're embarrassed. So it wasn't just like I paid you to endorse me. Now you're being embarrassed later. And I know there's a story we're going to cover later about a labor union where it's just shocking. And now they're like, again? And I could see Stephen A going down his list. He's just like, again? Another one? Another one? Another one?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And finally, he says, I've had enough. I regret this. So, you know, I don't know if he had a hunch, but I think he was he's definitely embarrassed. And at least he's going down the list with facts the way Stephen A does. He goes back. This guy said this. This guy said this.

So taxes are not going to go up on Americans at the time where they could least use them going up right now as with the economy adjusting. So that was number one. But then some good things happened. There was a bunch of green energy stuff in there that even at the time people said, you're giving away subsidies for nothing.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
They're not showing that the green energy was saving money or saving on investment in new energy plants because we need nukes. Thank you. And they put a work requirement in that if you're going to get Medicaid, you're going to get food stamp. There's a work requirement. And if you work, Vinnie, what do you got to have? You got to have a green card. So guess what?
PBD Podcast

So they're arguing, the Democrats are arguing, hey, you know, there's, you know, three million people aren't going to be able to get to the SNAP program. Well, that's like an EBT card that you can go buy food with. Well, guess what? No, no, no, no, no. If you're working or you're trying to work or you have a green card, you can take advantage of it as low income.

But if you're you just, you know, walked across from some foreign place and you're not supposed to be here. Oh, you can't use it. So all that was good. And I think this is a really good bill. Now, what we need to get is the fine print, Pat. And we don't have the fine, fine print.

And we're going to see that because July 4th, he's talking about is it's got to go the Senate and Senate's going to arm wrestle over. But then Republicans are going to, you know, pass it. It's going to happen. And then he's going to sign. I think he's absolutely going to sign it on July 4th. And as a matter of fact, I don't think he wants to sign it, Pat, until July 4th.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
He doesn't need to sign it till then because the tech cuts were the end of the year. So I think it's a good thing. Is it a celebratory thing? On a 1 to 10, I'm at about an 8.5 because it continues at tax cuts, and they're moving forward, and they're actually putting some requirements on things, and no taxes on tips I like, no taxes on overtime pay, and no taxes on car loan interest.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Now, when you hear that one, that's part of fine print because who's that going to help? The auto industry that's trying to sell cars. Exactly.
PBD Podcast

Yeah, I think this is an eight and a half, and I want to see the fine print because they really went down through multiple areas, and that's the purpose of Congress to do. That's what they're supposed to do. Remember Nancy Pelosi? We'll find out what's in it after we pass.

Yeah, well, he was saying most people in America maybe don't know. He's not saying poor, P-O-O-R. He's saying boer, B-O-E-R. And those are the white Dutch settlers that are farmers in South Africa. So when he says kill the farmer, it's what the common people refer to them, the white farmers. And when he says kill the Boers, he's referring to their ancestors who were Dutch settlers.

Because it's time that we use our strength and influence around the world not to ignore things. And there's so many things to do, so many things. There's DARPA and there's all these things. But I love the fact that Trump called it out, and Americans need to understand what's going on here.

Joy Behar died two years ago. No one told her. You know, what's interesting is they're going to lose their megaphone. They're losing their megaphone right now. And to Vinnie, I'll tell you, it's very ironic. We were just talking about The Daily Show, and there was something that John said at the end of that clip, far at the end that I watched last night. It was interesting, Pat.

He says, and why am I paying $30 to read in a book what you should have told me three years ago for free? If you go find that, there's a quote from Jon Stewart where he says, why am I buying a book when three years ago you should have told me for free? But remember, remember, Adam, you'll remember this because I know you were up on media in this.

Remember when the people started doing surveys and they found out, hey, did you know that some of these Gen Xs are getting their news from The Daily Show more than they get it from regular news sources? Remember when those first things came out? Well, guess what? It's a tsunami, and we are causing it. This podcast, what we're doing is causing it. Check this out.

The shift in cable as people get to Hulu and they go online and they don't even get cable anymore. You know, the Gen Z's, they don't even buy cable. So guess what? All the old cable going away and with it, the unprofitable news. Versant. You know what Versant is? It's a company being spun out of Comcast and NBC. And what are they putting in it? USA, Oxygen, MSNBC, and CNBC.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
And CNBC, they say, is the only real jewel because the way it covers business and it's actually a profitable point in there and it doesn't have a bunch of hosts with $10 million salaries. Well, get this. It's being spun out as a thing called Versant. And now David Zaslav... After he has lost NBA, NBA was on Turner for how many decades? And they've lost that.

NFL Sunday ticket has gone to YouTube, YouTube TV. The ice is melting below the feet of the cable empire. And people are turning for their news elsewhere. And... David Zaslav has got to take Turner and CNN and spin them out and sell them at a garage sale. And David Faber caught a whisper. I know somebody that would be interested if it was a garage sale number. Ready for this?
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
CNN, this is David Faber was talking, there's an article that's written this, and then there was an attributed quote that they won't put the name on. So they said there's a direct quote, won't put the name on. This is a... High-level media executive in the U.S. Zaslav has no choice. He has to spin it out, and he has to keep CNN in the basket because the rest of the basket's worthless.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
CNN, quote, will be orphaned without any real investment or future. I see no future in it, personally.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Yes, I agree with that. But the point is, with their current economics, why are they cutting everybody's salary? Because the viewership's down. Why is the viewership down? You're putting out the wrong product. If the product was different, it would be different.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I agree. I don't need to speculate. You know why? Because Pam Bondi walked up to a microphone and said there are 10,000 or what? Tens of thousands. Tens of thousands of videos and clips, and we have to be careful about the identities. So I'm not out there with a tin hat, crazy train. I listen to Pam Bondi, and I respect Pam Bondi.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
But I want her to finish up and put some dates and timelines on what she came out and she told us. Where is this? And I also want to see if there are people there that are. See, I'm not as worried about a congressman that went to Epstein Island and had sex with a girl who was 17, not 19. I worry less about that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I want to know where are the people that were part of the feeder network that are running networks of this because they were in business and they're probably still in business trafficking kids to God knows where. Yeah. Those are the people that I want stopped because this was a criminal enterprise. There was a constant flow.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
So I'm not ready again to put on my tin hat and get all freaked out on one thing or the other or whether a senator did this with somebody or Prince Andrew. They called him Randy Andy. He already had a reputation. There's nothing more to the story of Andrew is that this guy was an entitled royal who was just basically humping his way around the world. I'm not worried about that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I want to know where are these children now, and I want to know where are the people that we're trafficking them in because that's where it is.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Vinny, you're going this way, and you're very clear about what you just said. I don't need to summarize it. And Adam's very clear on that. What I said is they both looked a little bit... A little bit stiff and a little bit uncomfortable there, but I'm not an expert. I don't know how to read that, but I looked at it and said, God, these guys look a little stiff and uncomfortable.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
However, my point was I just want Pam Bondi to finish the sentence she started when she walked to the microphone without speculation. So I'm probably, you know, that's where I'm at. It's like, okay, Pam, then tell us, and then let's go after the criminal enterprise that was trafficking the kids.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Well, there's definitely political stuff going back and forth. And I think the guy that he referred to as a jackass, he's talking about the Republican House Speaker Daniel Perez. I think so, because Perez says he said the media that he accused DeSantis of, quote, telling lies and stories that never happened. and having, quote, temper tantrums, unquote. So that's from Daniel Perez.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
So I had not thought, I had not seen this particular clip. In the research I did for this story, I didn't see that. And I had thought he was more quiet than that. But that was a full-blown defense that you just saw right there. And this is political. But now the real question is, It can be political and there also can be something there.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
And Hope, Florida, you know, it would seem to me that all you have to say is, hey, come audit the books. Did 10 million go somewhere that it shouldn't have gone? That's all you have to say. He dropped it off here. He did that. That could be true. But you can also just say, you know what, let's have a hearing and let's let's audit this. And I'd like to send us to see that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Now, the other side of it is the guy who said he's completely crashed the ground, that's a political science professor saying that, and that's a pundit observation from the outside. So I don't know, but it sure seems like a lot of people are ticked off, including DeSantis, and if there's nothing to this, have a hearing, open the books, and clear it up.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I thought that Casey DeSantis established it, and she's on the board along with, as you would imagine, people that have worked with and for the gubernatorial campaigns.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
That's right.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
What they're saying, 10 million left, and it went to a donation, and then those donations went to PACs. You can't do that. You're bouncing the money. You see what I mean? It's like if I gave you 5 million... And I said, oh, I just paid Vinny a consulting fee for two years for media and other things like that. And then you turned around and donated that to a PAC that was supporting something.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
And I'm screaming about education in schools. And you gave it to a PAC that's putting money out there for education in schools.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it also kind of, it's the way money, this is what we've talked about Ukraine. Money goes to Ukraine and it comes back into U.S. PACs or it comes back into U.S. defense contractors that then really like Senator Oshana for some reason. Vote for me. But here's the part, though. Just show it and say that's not what happened, guys.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Okay, enough on marijuana. Do you think it hurts or helps DeSantis?

There's no reason to shoot at him politically because there's just going to be his term limit.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I see that angle. So they neutralize.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Tom. Well, this story won't die, and the reason it won't die is because the problem can't die easy, and it won't die easy. And so State Farm is saying, I need more money to run my company effectively and provide coverage in California. And I think State Farm was frustrated that they didn't get the increase they wanted, but they saw the backlash. They saw what's going on in the media.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
they saw that the consumer, the people that were surveyed was like, hell no, I don't want to be put on fair plan by accident. So it's like, Pat, you and I could own houses in Malibu and get forced on the fair plan. Now we have no choice. And we're like, wait, we don't want to be on fair plan. Sorry, dude, you get fair plan, which has a cap.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Remember cap of $3 million to three and a half million dollars. And I think it's being raised to four of coverage for your house. So Vinny, if you're forced to go on fair plan and you have a $10 million house in Malibu, guess what happens? Burns the ground. You get, $4 million, $3 million from Fair Plan, and the rest you eat because you're rich and you can afford it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
There's a lot of people that are frustrated by that. And so I think State Farm read the tea leaves and said, you know, if we leave California, Newsom and everybody here have got more trouble. And let's face it. State Farm wants to operate at a profit, but they have paid out record amount of dollars. Now, to Josh Hawley's point, have those payouts been fair for each and every policyholder?
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Like, did you... You needed 400 for your house, and they said, here's 360. Take it or leave it, and you had to eat the 40. You know, that happens a lot with adjusters. But this is State Farm saying, look, you want me to – there's a little bit of State Farm can do this at gunpoint now, and there's a little bit of California kind of screwed this thing up.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
And then and now you've got this playing out. This wouldn't be happening if if California had good management of the infrastructure system, of the water systems or reservoir systems, a well and a well vetted and well equipped fire department. They would have been ready for this with the with the wind. You know, driving those fires still caused tremendous damage?
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Yes, but it would have been tremendously less, and you wouldn't have State Farm on the brink of leaving the state, which puts all these people in a pinch. So, you know what? I'd love to see, you know, because I have sat down with people that have brought me – business plans. So is Pat.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I'd love Gavin Newsom to sit down and say, look, you've got aspirations to run on a national stage, but what's your business plan for California? How do you make this work? Take me through the plan. How do you deal with the big three in California, which right now is border and You know, homelessness, insurance, those are like the three that are bouncing around regardless of who you survey.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I'd love to see Gavin Newsom sit down with somebody and talk about what are you going to do? And, you know, set aside some of your hand gestures and stuff and just sit down and say, here's the fix for insurance in California. Because, you know, I got a lot of friends that still live there that are asking that exact question.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
If I'm Newsom, this is not a politically good answer, but this is what he has to say. And I'm not going to imitate him. You can do that, Vinny. But he's got to say there's going to be some short-term pain because I've got to give State Farm the rate increase.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
And I'm meeting with all the insurance companies, and I'm talking about a multibillion-dollar plan for forestry management and reservoir management, and I'm putting these things in place in these bordered areas – so that we can reduce the risk of loss when wildfires happen.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
And I'm putting pressure on PG&E for more active forestry management in the smaller communities, like where they had those wildfires and entire communities of 3,000, 4,000 homes were wiped out. So I have to put it in two sides. California, we're going to have pain because I've got to authorize this. Otherwise, you don't have carriers to offer it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I'm going to talk to the other carriers, and I'm going to show them what California is doing with active programs to reduce the risk of loss because wildfires will happen, but we can have reservoirs. We can have more fire teams. We can have response rates that are going to be there to react to it so it reduces the loss. Okay.
PBD Podcast

If I'm governor, that's what I have to do, and I've got to sit down with travelers and say, will you at least renew this percent?
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
I have analysts in my office looking at this, and we're hoping to cut that in half. How are you going to do it? Because you have to get carriers that are willing to write the insurance.

Okay. So, Tom, thoughts on this? Well, there is a comment. First of all, I like it. We have to do this. And if anybody has seen what the Iron Dome has done to protect the citizens of Israel who have all these rocket attacks coming at them and what they've done and how they've been protecting it, you can see these are the kind of defense systems that work. And thank goodness that they exist.

And now we're just talking about taking it to next generation. Next generation. And by the way, I love the quote. It's not that I love the quote like I like the quote. It was very ironic quote from the foreign ministry spokesperson of China, Mao Ning, who goes by Mao. Gee, that's appropriate. He said, quote, the U.S. by putting itself first and being obsessed with pursuing absolute security.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Yeah, we're protecting our citizens, right? He continues, this violates the principle and diminishes the security for all and undermines global strategic balance and stability. Wait a minute. It doesn't undermine balance. It helps ensure balance because you're trying to build stuff like this. You're investing in it. China is saying this. You're undermining the balance.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Yeah, the balance with your thumb on the scale, Mao, and underlying global stability. No, you're undermining stability. We're bringing stability back because when the Pershing missiles were threatened to go to Germany... The Berlin Wall came down. There's a lot of things that came before Reagan's speech. Reagan's speech was tremendous, and it was a challenge. But guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
It brought stability and balance into Europe. And this brings security to the U.S. People can talk about, oh, well, it's unproven technology. Well, that's what the money is for, is to go do it. But it's pretty comical to have Mao from China saying, oh, the U.S. putting itself first and being obsessed with the personal security of its citizen is undermining global balance and stability.

If your enemy... The weapon... of militaries is the nuclear sub That is the weapon. Iran has 19 subs. They have a reasonable, not a formidable, a reasonable navy. But China and Russia have formidable navies. And you don't want Iran to have nukes and then now have a nuclear sub where you can get pretty far with that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
No. Look, the fact that it's in a headline doesn't mean that it's not happening if there's no headline. The U.S. and Israel strategically work to neutralize assets all the time. And it just happened that Soleimani and a motorcade around the back of a airport was a high visibility target. And, you know, that missile made a loud sound.
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
But there are underlings and people that are getting neutralized all the time. And so I do not believe for a minute that the U.S. and the U.K., by the way, even though the U.K. is teetering because of its government, they are still supporting the neutralization of

uh the nuclear capability and you know if the rumor is that israel is going to do it israel may do it but the dog don't go off the leash unless we unclip it and the u.s is right there with it you know so israel is not going to be acting alone on there because to take out centrifuges and capabilities that's in everybody's interest and we're right there with them and so do i think

That there's where there's smoke, there's fire, that there's something cooking here. If our intelligence tells us that they are really close on the systems and everything where they can do that with the uranium. Now you've got core. It's not terribly hard to build the bomb around that. And then you just you deploy the bomb.

which is why Japan's been getting so nervous for the past 15 years with North Korea keeps building slightly better and slightly better and slightly better, you know, missiles that they casually launch into the water. And South Korea is even more concerned than South Korea is like that thing just flew by us and everybody's concerned about it. So, and that, and that's why, what did Trump do?
PBD Podcast
Trump's BIG Beautiful Bill, Golden Dome SHOCKER & South Africa SHOWDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 590
Trump went over there and talked to the kid, right? Um, In North Korea. Kim Jong-un? Yeah. The kid? Yeah. Because his dad was even more bonkers. So what do I think? I think that you have to neutralize what's going on there in terms of nuclear capability.

There have been a lot of things that have been in the media, things that happen to people that have left the Daily Wire that have talked about, you know, hey, Jeremy may or may not be the easiest guy to work with there.

PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
We've seen him do a lot of different content over there. So he's finishing up something that he's shooting the pentagram cycle. OK, that makes sense. And I'll still be with the game when we get together for Daily Wire backstage. OK, well, that's a piece of content. So he's going to drop in and do that. OK, I believe that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And then you come down to the rest of it, but I'll remain with the company advisor role. So it's like, okay, so you're really stepping out of management. And so the translation I would do, okay, he's going to get out of people's hair. He's going to finish what he's doing on Pentagon Cycle. He may drop back in for some of the episodes, but then he's an advisor.

To me, this is one of those things where you shift and roll out.

with cia and he will be killed after he does the kill and he is allegedly uh an assassin being trained to kill kennedy and this guy's bringing this in august right august something team three months before three and a half months yeah august 15th and so it's true that you got everything you wanted but what you really saw here is there's a bunch of documents that seem to say
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Until I saw this, I didn't know how much we missed Sean Connery.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
that what the Underhill letter said is a group of people in the CIA were training Oswald, had contact with Ruby, and people were pointing to it. So the one thing that everybody thought, isn't it weird that Alan Dulles of the CIA was on the Warren Commission making sure that things were in or not in? Guess what? That now really looks like a legitimate statement.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Well, first of all, what's really interesting is if you know anything about Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-shing, he's known as Li Cash-in, right, because of the deals that he's done.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And he did tremendous deals starting in the early 90s with cellular phones and everything. And it was Hutchinson-Wampoa, which is now his derivative, C.K. Hutchinson. So this guy is like a major, major player. He's not a casual player. But he's always been a Hong Kong guy. not a China guy. He's always been a Hong Kong guy. And then he's got his son, who usually has kind of screwed things up.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Well, what's interesting here is BlackRock comes to him and says, hey, we'll buy these two things for, you know, $23 billion. We'll buy these two ports. So that would be like you saying, I'm going to buy the Cypress Creek on-ramp to I-95, and I'm going to buy the Sunrise on-ramp to I-95. So if you want to go on I-95 between those, you got to use those on ramps. So it's a smart move by Trump.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I mean, a lot of research went into Roger Stone's book, and he said that. And now we've got all these documents that seem to be pointing very conclusively that the CIA had fingerprints on Oswald's travel, fingerprints on Underhill, fingerprints with a Russian ambassador, where people are saying, look, Oswald's a shooter, one of them, and then he's going to be killed.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Trump asked them to do it. Trump said, hey, could you go buy these and then you'll own it. You'll make a lot of money because what has China been doing? They've been building these oversized bridges and they've been also building infrastructure down there because they want to screw with the West and control of the Panama Canal. And Trump's like, I got an idea.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
You buy the two on-ramps on either end from Li Ka-shing. You do that, and that way we'll have kind of a stalemate with China trying to put its influence on the Panama Canal. And who's the first person to speak up? Beijing. Hang on a minute. I think this deserves serious attention, whatever that is in Chinese. And then says, we think there could be antitrust and national security concerns.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And we're like, we agree. Yours. Yours.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And so I think this is a good deal for the U.S. to neutralize what China's been doing.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Andrew, how much do you care about this?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Well, I see the logic in that, but there's also something else. When the states, you know, because, you know, the U.S. states cannot run a deficit. It's law. At the end of a year, if a U.S. state has a deficit, it's got to go to the federal government. It's got to go to bonds. It's got to figure it out. It's got to balance the books. It's law. If only the U.S. government was like that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Well, guess what? The things that states have trouble building is infrastructure. The things that states have trouble handling is widespread natural disasters. So when it came time for prisons and infrastructures, you take a look at the amount of private prisons in the United States. Do you know Montana has no prisons built by the people's money? They're all built privately.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Andrew, build me a prison. I'll send you guys to keep track of, and I'll pay you to keep track of those guys. But I don't want to build the prison, but we'll give you the 30, 40 grand a year so that you can operate it. I think this is no different. It's like, you know, we're trying to save money, not spend money. Tell you what. You buy it for $23 billion. That serves our interests. But...
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
If anything happens or goes wrong, you know the U.S. Navy is going to be there. We got your back. And I think it's that simple. And by the way, Lee Keshing is 96 years old. So if you want to talk about auto pen and see if he did it or his son did it, this is the time to do it. I got to pee real quick.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Absolutely. And I think there's something else here that we have to remember. During the height of inflation, there was a secondary inflation effect that was in Europe. And you know what it was called? It was called Yemeni guys in rubber boats that were interfering with all the boats. International trade getting to the Suez Canal. And they start down there at the Horn, right at Yemen.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So you had the Houthis, you had the Yemen pirates, you had all this stuff. And you have, there was a very average Tom Hanks movie way back when that talked about piracy.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But that's what was going on down there. And that was impacting inflation on food prices. coming into Europe, and it had a dramatic impact on inflation. And so the U.S. Navy said, all right, the hell with it. We got all these extra torpedoes. Let's play fun, shoot to kill, right? And all of a sudden, the pirates kind of stayed home.

I agree with that, but on Social Security, maybe get past the size and scope of the sensational headline, but there are two major areas of fraud that I, as a voter, and I think the rest of Americans want to see. How many recycled Social Security numbers are out there with checks that are going to people that never paid in payroll taxes? Right. So they never put it into the trust fund.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
It was never there. Number one. And then number two, there are there is truths that there are people that pass away. And then all they have to do is make an arrangement with the funeral home. And they guess what? Nothing gets filed. And so they still get the check from grandma. And that is fraud that's happened. And you can go and you can find that's for sure. Handbook that are out there.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
I want to know. I want to know those areas. So I think Doge opening the door that says, hey, there is fraud at Social Security. I think we need to keep looking at that. To your point, hey, let's get past the sensational headline.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
The sensational headline, if it turns out things are wrong, I don't want to give the liberal media an opportunity to say, hey, you're wrong, you're wrong, you're wrong, you're wrong, and knock on Doge when they are uncovering a lot of stuff that's really important. And I, as a taxpayer, would like a rebate. Absolutely.

DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Do you have any thoughts on that? I love it. A 20% dividend, so to speak, for the money that we're saving by going after the waste and fraud and abuse and all the other things that are happening. I think it's a great idea. Couldn't be a lot. I mean, if it's 20%, we'd give back a lot of money to the taxpayer.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
And also, it'd give an incentive for the taxpayer to go out and report things to us where we can save money.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Well, I think this is a great idea. And unlike the government that was sending us relief checks during COVID, and some people were getting checks that didn't really need them or deserve them, you notice what they said here. To all taxpaying units, married filing jointly, $5,000. Individual, $5,000. And they were very specific about it in the follow-up.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
And I think this is a great idea because it sends a message to America. This was your money. And it's coming back to you because we found out where it went and we're going to rebate you. It's a message to America. People say it's buying votes. No, it's not. He's in his second term. People say, oh, you're trying to stimulate the economy because.

You're not going to have double Social Security checks going out to people, and those double checks can't buy goods and services. So we're in a risk of recession if too much – because that's one of the arguments, right? We could have a recession if Doge finds a lot of money that we're flowing illicitly to citizens running scams, and all of a sudden that money stops buying plane tickets.

Disneyland, booze, all these things. That's a tricky argument. It's a very tricky argument, but it's an argument that's being made. Yeah. No, you could cause a recession. You know, let people commit fraud. And I look at it and say, wait a minute. I think this is a positive message for the American. The second part I look at is I'm ready for Chapter 2, and I don't think we can debate it.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
We can suppose. But Chapter 2 is going to be, okay, what are some long-term –

deficit to get closer to a balanced budget and what is the long-term now pay down that debt and we got an awful lot of oil and we're about to be the number one oil producer in the world if we aren't already we are based on a projected reserve basis and we could be just having extraction taxes on our own oil and that tax goes back to paying down our debt

I'll give you a period on the end of the sentence here. Over the weekend, Bloomberg measured 48% of America thinks it's going in the right direction.

I don't know. I think there's a time and a place for campaign finance reform. And when Byron Donalds was here a couple weeks ago, I made a comment. I said, if you want to find out why Elizabeth Warren is yelling and sounding a little weird at a hearing, find out who yelled at her an hour and a half before the hearing started. There you go. And Byron Donalds goes, that is so true. That's it.

Well, we have a situation where we haven't had elections in Ukraine, where we have martial law, essentially martial law in Ukraine, where the leader in Ukraine, I mean, I hate to say it, but he's down at 4% approval rating. and where our country has been blown to smithereens. You got most of the cities are laying on their sides. The buildings are collapsed. It looks like a massive demolition site.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
The whole — I mean, so many of the cities. I mean, they haven't done it in Kiev because I guess they don't want to shoot too many rockets in there. They've done it 20 percent, but they haven't done it 100 percent. If they wanted to do it 100 percent, it would probably happen very quickly. But you have cities that are absolutely decimated.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
And, yeah, I would say that, you know, when they want a seat at the table, you could say the people have to Wouldn't the people of Ukraine have to say, like, you know, it's been a long time since we've had an election? That's not a Russia thing. That's something coming from me and coming from many other countries also. You know, Ukraine is being just wiped out.
PBD Podcast

The question that you asked me, Pat, was about Americans and how they feel. Most Americans, so there's a survey that comes out done by the Financial Times, and I looked it up, and it's a fair survey. 60% of the people in the survey said that foreign aid is wasted. Wasted. My tax dollars are wasted. The only way.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Now, let's assume 10 percent of the Republicans that would be in the survey, which would be 46 percent. Let's take four points off. So only see 90 percent of Republicans because 4 percent are just war loving rhinos. OK, 44. That means to get to 60 percent, you've got to have 18 points coming from Democrats, which means a unified America is coming together.

So I did a bunch of reading, and the old warheads, even the ones that aren't found, the ones that are plutonium-based, which was most of them, apparently that requires a lot of maintenance. Like you have to maintain. So when we hear billions of dollars of government to maintain the nuclear arsenal, my understanding is like every 8 to 12 years with an average of like 9 to 11 –
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
You know, the warhead has to be serviced because the plutonium that's highly processed to get the full nuclear yield out of the out of the bomb. It has to be has to be maintained. And even the fuel load has to be replaced. And it was that Ukraine that like James, you know, James on the defense experts, James publications, even they talked about that, that Ukraine.

Apparently, Ukraine didn't have the technology to take care of all these.

So...

that any of them that is missing and escaped is basically dirty bomb grade at this time, that it's not like big nuke Hiroshima-type stuff capability, that in the hands of a bad actor, it would be a massive contamination dirty bomb.

So there's a few things. So let's go through them really, really fast. Go. If it's the U.S. government testing defense stuff, every now and then people see it, and you don't know what you see it, and then it kind of goes away.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Like Edwards Air Force Base, I'm telling you, it's a true story about all the weird planes people would see in the sky, reported UFOs, test is over, and they go back to their – to their hangar. Okay, number one, is it a test? Number two, are they really looking for something?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And they're really, and this is our government using drones that we have to go out and look for something exactly he's talking about. Number three, it's a Chinese weather balloon on steroids, but we're not doing anything about it, and we're trying to talk to them about it, and we're not getting anywhere, but they don't want to panic because if they... So there's never been a shot fired...
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Just remember, the Chinese weather balloon, if you think about it, Pat, that was, I was reading, the first shot fired in anger at a foreign adversary over the 48 U.S. in modern history. This goes, you know, because remember, the British sailed up and burned down the White House once, but this is modern times, right?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So if you're shooting things down over the East Coast, you're basically admitting to the American people that a foreign adversary can get across the two biggest natural barriers that any country in the world has, the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. You think about that, right?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And so second is if it's really a foreign actor and they're trying to negotiate and they're trying to figure this out and they don't want to shoot it down because you're basically having like hot, hot, hot engagement with, Over New York and New Jersey. That's going to make people a little bit squidgy, right? So that's the third choice.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So I think military test, you know, why would you go this long and risk this hysteria? I agree with this guy. Then you've got we're doing it because we're trying to figure something out. We just don't want to talk about it. And then third, it is a foreign adversary. It's a Chinese spy balloon on steroids. And we don't want to get in a hot conduct shooting down mosquitoes over the eastern seaboard.

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Well, there's a lot of people that argue that the dirty bomb is more of a problem than a full nuclear payload. And why is that? Well, because of the way it can contaminate. Everything, the water. By the way, and there's opinions that go back and forth on that. They say, well, it depends on what warhead you're launching. It depends on what you did with it.
PBD Podcast

Was it an atmospheric explosion or was it a ground explosion? Was it in water supply?

That hologram trading card. One of the rarest. The last one I needed for my set.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So I'm going to echo something that I said three podcasts ago. The liberals think capitalists and conservatives are evil, and it is acceptable for them and even laudable when one is killed or they die or have hardship. Whereas conservatives, especially faith-based conservatives, merely believe that the liberals are wrong and need, through reasoning, even if they're volatile and they're militant,
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
that need to come to understand truth and understand what's right. That's the difference. And you have now lived, going back into the Obama administration, this division of America for political and election purposes, this continual fueling and fostering of this hatred and vitriol, and it's come down. I said, you correctly pointed out, Pat, said, Tom, back up a little bit.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
I really want to know about the 90 days prior because it's like this open period. I'm with you on that. I'm with you on that. And I was not throwing Penn over the waterfall as the cause. But I was saying something happened to him at Penn. There was a step that was taken.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
It was a different guy that graduated Penn, then gave that valedictorian speech, talked about the disabled classmate, and talked about the classmate that didn't speak English when he started. Very reasoned. And there was a little step that was taken. And then he sits in San Francisco for a while. Then he goes to Hawaii for a while. And then he's back. And then what happened those 90 days?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
All we can say is we know there is a progression. And what is surrounding... him is this liberal and this angry vitriol where they think that this violence is acceptable. And if you think I'm wrong, go look at the poll. 41% of Americans age 18 to 29 at the Emerson College poll. Which was, you know, and by the way, they weren't very accurate during the election.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And I hope to God they're not accurate here because I hope it's really not 41 percent of people that have emerged in career 18 to 29 that deem it, you know, somewhat or completely acceptable. And praise God for the 33 percent of the people in that age group that said this is completely unacceptable. But you look at Taylor Lorenz.

And you look at her little smirk, and you look at how she reacted, and you look at what she said. She used the word joy, and Pierce Morgan, God bless him, called her ass out. But that's what I think is happening.

This guy, something happened those 90 days, but it was the culmination of little steps that had been taken since the man that gave the valedictorian speech at his high school and did not sound like this.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Eight years ago, I would have said there's probably a chance that it's going to unsettle them a little bit. I don't think so now because I think they see it coming. They ran a fabulous campaign. They were able to jujitsu, you know, the theory of jujitsu, use the other guy's energy and then move that energy to get your move accomplished and put the other man on the floor. So I think that...
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Any sensitivity there? They see this coming now. I think they see it coming. They know what's going on. Look, as soon as the nominations start coming out, the assassinations start coming out because they don't have. If you don't have an idea or you don't have a program, all you have is words and manipulation, right? Name-calling. Name-calling and manipulation, not just words.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Name-calling and manipulation, that's all you have. Hitler didn't work, so now you've got to move on to something else. Name-calling and manipulation. Oh, this is the dictator. He's going to be. He's going to retaliate. So there's two things I see right now. The retaliation angle. We're going to cover a story later today. I think the retaliation against the media, I got the odds at 50%.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
That he's going to retaliate. So here he comes. He's going to retaliate. We told you so. And then manipulation. How are they trying to manipulate? They're trying to get under his skin using this. It's concerted and I'm I have faith right now that it's not going to work because they see it coming.

And when Trump is sat there with Kristen a week ago and she tried some angles on him, he came right to her professionally, elegantly, but shut her down. And I hope that's what's going to happen here.

I have one simple follow-up. This election was too important for what has to happen for America. Specifically, we've got the debt thing going on right now. It was so important for America. And I would hate to see the opportunity squandered at the hands of a PSYOP.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Well, I would say that. I have a certain feeling for that, but I also have an eternal perspective on that. I still, and you know this, if people are lazy and things won't go as fast as they need to, that bothered me in my 20s, it bothers me now.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
because I want to get it done, and it bothers me as much today as it ever has, even more so today because now I have the benefit of my own history realizing that when you really go fast and you put it down, what you can really achieve, and I've seen it. So actually it probably bothers me more today.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
When I was in my 20s and I used to hear, well, you didn't go to this school, you didn't go to that school, that really bothered me. Now I look back on it and say, well, I think I did okay. So that's like whatever. Now I see it as I kind of poke back. Yeah, I went to a small school and then I had to put myself through to get my MBA. I guess that worked out.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Tom, thoughts? I love that. I absolutely love it. Because you know what it points out? That we've been living in a stage show. And the directors and the producers didn't want the media to really talk to the actors. And the actors are Biden and Harris. And instead...
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Trump, who is famous for being accessible, he's famous for being a quick text, not for everybody, but for the people that know him because he knows the game. You know, the art of the deal means you know who to call. The art of the deal means when you need a permit in New York, you call City Hall and say, you know, I got all these people working, got all these things going on here.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
What's up with my permit? Right. The art of the deal means that you work the phones and you influence. You don't influence. That's it. You don't influence from being behind 50 people and being a puppet. Right. And that is what Biden and Harris were. And Stephanie Ruhl has just pointed out, I would have to go through all this stuff to get to to know. Let me translate it for you.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Stephanie Rule says, my job is to interview people and to get segments and get them on my network. That's what I'm paid to do. I am a commentator. That's what I'm supposed to do. I try to do that with Biden and Harris. I can't do my job because there's 50 people in my way. But DJT picks up the phone. Guess what?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
When you're making deals and when you're out making things happen and you're leading, you're accessible enough to the right people so that you can get crap done. And we have just seen Biden and Harris are puppets behind the stage and the directors and producers. That's what we had.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
What this means is that Fannie Willis. by the organization in Georgia that manages their prosecuting attorneys, has basically said, Fannie, you... You have brought something here, and your conduct and how you've done this is so beyond the pale and outside the lines that you're off this case. They basically have removed her from the case.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
We had to go through the hearings with you, and did you give money to your boyfriend, and were you doing the horizontal bop on brakes and all those things that we were hearing about this, right? And the money, well, that's what it was. Horizontal what?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
You're laying down, Pat, while you're on top of the person? It's an old Bob Seger reference. Tom's doing the Mambo No. 5 over here. No, no, no. It's from a Bob Seger song. I thought it was a geometry reference. Anyway. Back to Fanny. Get back to Fanny's Fanny. No, no, no. A little bit of time in your life. So let's go back to the facts. Fact. She was not in the office a lot.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
She was having an affair. She directed money to a boyfriend. She ended up in a disciplinary hearing that barely went her way. Remember that?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And now... You know, they're all looking at January 20th, and they're looking at federal money, and they're looking at a lot of things. They're looking at judges being appointed. And so people in Georgia that I think are protecting their livelihoods are depoliticizing this, and they're saying, step one, Fannie, you're off the case.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Step two, a new prosecutor can look at it because they don't have the authority to dismiss the case. Only the prosecutor dismissed the case. So they said, we need to find a new prosecutor. And if the new prosecutor... you know, picks up the piece of paper and says, yeah, this thing is weak as hell. It never should have been brought. Toss this thing.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And I think that's what's about to happen in Georgia. But the disciplinary group over the state prosecutors has basically removed her from the case, which should have happened a long time ago. But everybody was scared because the Democrat machine had so much pressure. The same thing happened to Alvin Bragg. And this is what Eric Adams is on the flip side screaming about in New York.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And so there's a new sheriff in town, and January 20th is coming, and Fannie just got fired off that case, and the new prosecutor will either continue it or he'll drop it because a prosecutor has to be the one to drop it.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Nothing. I believe it will be ultimately, and I'll tell you why. Remember when we broke this down, I broke it down for everybody, I said, here's all the counts in the Alvin Bragg. Remember, we went count by count by count for our audience to say, this is basically what he did. Adam, you and a buddy were at your house. Don't bring me into this, Tom. No, no, no. I'll use an example.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And you're drinking, and you get upset, and you smash a bottle of Jack Daniels on his head, and you cut him. And so he goes to the authorities and says, I got assaulted, man. This is battery. And then the DA said, okay, count number one. Adam committed battery in an apartment in Miami. Count number two. Adam committed battery in Dade County. Tom, I don't know.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Count number three. Now the chat's going to go wild. Adam committed battery on the sixth floor of an apartment building. Remember, that's what Alvin Bragg did. He cut the thing. Remember all those checks? He cut it into little slices. So it was a loaf of bread, but he cut it into slices and acted like each slice was a case into itself. of the Justice Department. And that's what Fannie did.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And so 93 counts. They did that so the number would seem big.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
There are some people that appreciate in our audience that appreciate the explanation because they're going to go talk to their friends and say, listen, PBD podcast broke this thing down. They've got it under control. And this is what happened.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So remember, these are allegations.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Under an indictment. An indictment says the government believes there's enough evidence to bring against you to get rolling. What I thought was really odd here, I don't know these guys. By the way, Adam, when you read like that, you know you're about to get subpoenaed. What you just did, you and that girl are going to get subpoenaed. And sometimes you don't want to be part of that.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
No, I'm saying you are. I mean, you're in good shape, though. It's like you are. It's nothing what I'm saying. There's someone in Miami. Moving on, Tom. Typing it up right now. Technically, what you just did was section five, paragraph three. I got a text message on my phone from a witness. Let me read it to you.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
A woman who heard something from friends. Okay. Okay.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Now you brought her friends into it. So this is going to be the subpoena party at Adam's house. So what I was looking at is the judge here. I don't even know what to do with that right now.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
That was your friend that you hit with the Jack Daniels bottle. Get the facts straight. No, what I found odd about this, remember they went through on Diddy case, and Diddy was not given bail. And they said, we are concerned about his access to the witnesses, and we are concerned about his ability... And flight risk. That was the two things they said that these are indictments.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
You know, Mr. Combs is not guilty. And, you know, we're going to go to trial with this. But we're worried that he has all the capabilities that he would need to be a flight risk. And we don't want him to be out to intimidate witnesses because there's violence that had been involved in this. Remember that? So in this indictment, you're reading about.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
When you read false imprisonment, kidnapping and things like that, you're saying, you know, someone was holding you down. You were being restrained. That's what's in the indictment. The first judge that you saw him when he was wearing a I believe that's a bulletproof vest.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But it appears to be. And so he's in court with that, and that one judge is saying, this was dangerous and this was violent. What I'm reading here in my obligation is to deny bail. That's my obligation here. And so she says, but now a Miami judge comes back and says, oh, well, $2 million for you, $3 million for you, and we'll accept collateral as your dad's house.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
That just seemed to be odd to me that bail was granted in this case.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
I... I wonder. First of all, they've got the best of the best representing them, whoever that is. They've got the best criminal attorney that money can buy in Miami because they've got the money to get that person. And by the way, if you have the money, you want the best that there is because, hey, I'm under indictment. I'm not guilty until we go to court and the jury decides.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And so it's kind of weird that they get bail and Diddy doesn't. When they've got access to aircraft, they've got a lot of money. And the indictment contains multiple references to foreign countries where some of the stuff allegedly took place. Wow. So wouldn't you think, oh, they could just hop a plane to a foreign country. They have the ability to do that.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Well, everybody thought that it was going to be a party that went all the way back down to cheap money. And what the Fed is saying is it's going to be cheaper money at a responsible level. And that responsible is defined by the Fed. One man's responsible is another man's unreasonable.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So, OK, so what the Fed did is they came out and said, hey, look, we've given you a full one percent, a quarter, a half and a quarter. You know, this should really help out businesses. That's a full percentage point down on that. But the mortgages haven't responded because the bond market is following that. And that is because the demand for mortgages is not there.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And so there is no incentives for the banks to compete with each other, and there's nothing to push the bonds down at the moment. And so... Right now, I looked this morning for 750 credit on a 30-year fix. I was seeing 6875. So, again, just like the article said, almost 7%.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And, you know, me and many others were thinking that the end of this year we could be at 5.875, 6.8, but it's not happening because the – Number of homes that are available, the inventory is still down. So if there's not a lot of homes available for sale, then there's not a lot of demand for mortgages.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And if there's not a lot of demand for mortgages, why would the banks sort of compete against themselves and there's nothing to move the bonds? So for next year, what he's saying, we only see about two cuts. But remember, this year they were thinking that there could be up to six in the second half of the year, and there's only been four. So tomorrow's another year, and tomorrow's another day.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
We will see what the economy brings next. We will see what the Secretary of Treasury does when approved and get to put their policies and their tax package together in April. We will see about that. And as of right now, the market was looking forward to really cheap money next year. They are now been spooked. It's a buying signal right now, folks. It is a time this to me.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Talk to your RIA or read your articles and go to your Schwab account or your Robin Hood account. Make your own decision. But usually a drop like this is a buying signal because, you know, you've got the market is spooked. And we're also coming to year-end tax harvesting. So that's what's going on.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it had a trickle-down effect because you could only take – it hurt California because you could only take so much of your home interest because the federal government said, no, no, no, there's going to be a limit of how much interest deduction and property tax exemption you can take.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Well, remember you said we're going to have the year of investigation and all that. Q2 of next year, I agree with you, Pat, because I have flagged that. And I've just in my mind as you were sitting here, I've come up with a word for it. Q2 of next year, April 1st to June 30th, after everybody's been confirmed and the new tax plan, I think this is going to be the quarter of change.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And I think there's going to be massive changes in so many areas. Or it's going to be the quarter of coping. Right. It's going to be the quarter of coping because all the cabinet members are going to be in there pushing buttons, moving levers and doing things. But Q2 of next year, we're going to have a year of Washington, D.C. just in Q2 of next year.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Well, Adam just talked about You know, reality, and that is the reality, that porn doesn't help. So that's all I'll say about that. I think everybody knows where I stand. When it comes to enforcement, I mean, let's just say this is like a speed limit law, and they're only going to pull over people with Corvettes.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But the Ferraris and Lamborghinis and the Porsches are still, you know, doing 80 miles an hour in I-95. But if you're in a Corvette, we're going to pull you over. And so I do agree that if they're going to enforce this because minors are getting access to it, then they got to find a way to make it universal. But it's very hard to do that with the dark web and a VPN.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
You know, that's all there is to it. So you either have to play, you know, whack-a-mole where you're trying to shut down everyone, right? Or you've got to make a universal way to do it. And no one is going to like universal porn enforcement because it's going to give the government a tool. that they could use to say, well, that does it.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
We now need universal conservative religious enforcement and we need free speech enforcement. The pendulum swings when the wrong person is in the White House or in power someday and they will use that tool. So that makes me nervous. Right now, forget that it's Pornhub. Forget that all the stuff that's there. This is one company in an industry that is being pulled over for speeding.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And being told, now you have to put a rev limiter on your car, dot, dot, dot. Meanwhile, there's all these other companies freely operating out there. So what do you do about that? You really know your stats on this.
PBD Podcast

And the horizontal mambo. Pornhub. I thought I was saying whack-a-ho.

Wow. So the gangs that didn't exist, that weren't squatting in apartments, that was overblown and was a fake story like people eating cats in Ohio, turns out to be real. Oh, my goodness. And during the election season, they said this was overblown and this was this was this was B.S. And this is conservative. Guess what?

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
How many times do we need to see things coming true to to to to to really, you know, lose your mind over this? This is disgusting. You know, this is the police chief saying, I called the White House to talk about it, and they said, well, all we wanted them is over the border. You know what? This is what they want. They want to get rid of the electoral...

And they have $250 million houses.

Where Newsom is talking about calling Josh Green. The Maui fires, okay? They exposed the same stuff that's happening right now. Government failure, delayed response, ignored warnings, and all these priorities. He says something about reimagining California where he calls the Maui guy. And this is what bothers me, Tom. Those people that you're talking about now that have nothing, okay?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
That the house worth, let's say, $10 million in regard to insurance. Now if somebody comes and wants to buy up the land, Tom, they can offer them... way less, and say, listen, everything's gone. You didn't have the right insurance. We're going to give you this much money cash, Tom. Go about your business. Am I right?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Yeah, and then they talk about us like we're bullying him.

He just put a border here so I can't pass.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So I would say five to ten years. And, Peck, can I ask you a question? So let's say you had that – how much was that guy's house? $15 million? The one in the Palisades that burned down?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So now here's my question to you. Now you have that $3 million. You have to rebuild. You're not going to have the $20 million. So now that property, you're going to build a... Let's say you're not going to build a $20 million house. You're going to what? Build a $3 million house now? You can't afford... That's not possible. But that's what I'm saying. So now... That's going to my point.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So now you're going to take that money, that land. What are you going to do with that land? You're just going to sell it? Is that what you're going to do? You just sell the land that I have.

You're talking about the older white guy? Ingus King. He was in a heart attack. Senator from Maine.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
He's one of the worst. He's in the top five of the worst, and he knows what's coming, too. He knows. Is there another one, Rob?

Okay, and since we haven't been in actual fighting war, we haven't invaded, we haven't done anything in how many, what, 20 years? Afghanistan. What? I mean, come on. I'm talking about combat, full combat? I'm talking about Iraq and invading? That was like when we were watching the tanks and the Hummers going in. I'm not a fan.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Listen, I'm a fan of women joining and if they could play key roles in, like, comms, or they could assist in the combat. But ground troops running in on the ground, boots on the ground, and war? I'm not a fan. Why not? Because what if they do have to get to a situation where it is hand-to-hand combat with another man?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
What are the odds, you think, the percentage of that guy winning that hand-to-hand combat? Because at the end of the day, he just nailed it. There's standards, Pat. You have to pass on all different standards. Every soldier has to have the same qualifications. Because let's be honest. We're talking about... All war breaks out, and it's her against another guy one-on-one.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
He's going to win 95% of the time. I'm not for boots on the ground fighting, but any other supporting roles, you know what I mean? Like drones or all that stuff. If she's lethal in that sense, that's fine. But on the ground, I'm not a fan of it.

I can't wait for this. It's hilarious.
PBD Podcast

Everybody should.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Well, So we're going to find out. I want to put in a question, bro. 20 years, combat veteran, has medals to prove it. And my thing is this. With him and with Trump, I want both of these people to be America first. Pete Hexeth is America first. Donald Trump is America first. They're not DEI. They're not woke bullshit. They're not trans in the military.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Listen, at the end of the day, guys, we want killers to be in the military. I'm sorry to be so freaking blunt. We want killers. Everybody else, all these terrorists, Hamas, all these China, they have killers. They have people that are ready to fight, and that's what we need. And Pete is a G. His predecessor, Lloyd Austin, did you guys know this? Kind of like a dereliction of duty, he had surgery.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
He had prostate cancer. I'm happy he's okay. He had prostate cancer, underwent surgery. So from December to like January, a couple of days, he didn't report it. He basically went MIA, Tom, which is... It's not illegal, but you're breaking protocol. You can't just disappear and then all of a sudden be like, oh, yeah, by the way, I was having surgery.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Okay, so if you want to talk about professionalism and stepping up to the job, I think Pete has it. And it's not like he's just standing in there by himself. He's going to be surrounded by other people that know the job. They're going to fill him in. I'm completely happy with him and that his boss being Trump.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I can shoot. Have you ever seen him shoot? Aha! Very good shot. Oh, I mean, we're good. No, no, no. I'm not good. Don't say I'm good. I'm a trained... I know what I'm doing. This guy forgets his gun in half the meetings. What are you talking about? I'm a killer. Anyway, but at the end of the day, the Secretary of Defense, what's his job? What's his job?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
He advises the president on military policy, oversees the entire armed forces that Tom said, and ensures civilian control of the military and manages defense. If you think about it, veteran experience, leadership. Okay, he was an officer at the veteran forward...
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
a foreign wars leader he understands operations he knows what he's saying and here's my question the department of defense are you guys happy with the state of the department of defense right now the way that it is right now okay zero this is going to be a breath of fresh air and i can't wait to see and by the way job pat this is a job you can get fired donald trump could easily if you're not doing well you're out guess what it's one of the questions on vt news that oh is it oh

12,000, I'm sorry. 25 lives lost. 40,000 acres burned, and they're still burning. And there's more fires being set as we speak. I saw one last night. They got another guy for starting another fire. And that's a great job. I mean, how much more would have to have been destroyed for you to say it was a failure, okay? And your house didn't burn down, Bill. He's excited. Yeah, my house didn't.

inadequate resources the governor's full of shit everybody knows he's full of shit no matter how much he tries to fact check and be his thing we just fact checked him uh right here but that's not the point the issue is years years of poor decisions mismanagement and the neglect that set the stage uh for disaster and let's let's let's go back to who Bill Burr really is.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
During the pandemic, he criticized those. I don't know if you have, Rob, do you have those where he criticized anyone who opposed masks and vaccines? This guy, in 2021, he criticized anybody refusing, and he said... It's so effing dumb, this I don't trust it, you're all full of shit and you don't trust it, highlighting everybody's reasoning. This is who Bill Burr is.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And then in 2020 on Rogan, he defended wearing masks. When Rogan questioned the necessity, he responded, I'm not going to sit here with no medical degree, listening to you all with no medical degrees, acting like we know what's up better than the CDC. Okay, this guy's probably...
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
quadruple vax and has taken every vaccine and then in 2021 he criticized uh desantis for banning mass mandates in the state referring to such politicians as effing pieces of you know what and then i tried to realize it like how does somebody who's to me one of the top 10 comedians of all time what where's this shift where does this you believe in the internet and to say that it was a great job then i realized think about the household his what you guys remember his wife

PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
It's a very liberal college. Oh, okay. So it's one of those. Okay. And then back in 2018, she got upset for being mistaking the internet that he's talking about for mistaking her for Regina King. And she called it a racial stereotyping. She blamed white media creators for not being able to tell black people apart. But here's the kicker. You're married to a white guy. Okay.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
It's like the Don Lemon thing. They always preach that white people are evil and that they're the biggest problems, but you're all married to white people. So is Don Lemon.

What do you think? I'm being dead. Well, first and foremost, your husband was the president of the United States for eight years. And again, we're the most racist. This is the worst country ever. I just I think I think personally, it's something deeper. Let's not forget. Well, first of all, she doesn't show up to the funeral. This has nothing to do with Trump.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
This is the funeral of a past president. You have to go unless God forbid there's something wrong with you. She was on vacation. In Hawaii, okay? On a vacation. And this, to me, it feels like... And she's not coming to this one. This feels like an episode of House of Cards where Frank Underwood's wife wants to leave him for crazy... It kind of makes sense in this sense.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
She wants to leave him, but they're all acting as if it's something else. She was visiting her sick mother and all that stuff. But let's not forget, Michelle... has been open about her tough marriage with Barack. And she even said that there was a decade where she couldn't stand him. She couldn't stand him. And that's marriage. You guys get the picture. But I think this might be something deeper.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
You could play the whole, I hate Trump and I don't want to be there. I feel this is my opinion. And I've heard rumors about this online too, that there might be something deeper. Deeper, they might not be happy with each other. She said she couldn't stand him for 10 years. Maybe she can't stand him right now, and maybe this might be the end, which I think that's where I'm at.
PBD Podcast

If you believe, Pat, and you knew, and you had proof in your heart of hearts that they cheated, the Biden administration cheated, the deep state cheated, all the voting, all the regulators...

PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I want to know what Pat, cause I know you want to move on, but what do you, what do you think?

So a 53-year-old French woman, her name is just Anne, was deceived by a scammer impersonating Brad Pitt, leading to her divorce from her husband, and she lost approximately $850,000. The scam began in February 2023 when someone posing as Brad Pitt's mother contacted Anne via social media, and she said that her son... Really needed someone like Ann.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Okay, this was followed by a message from the scammer pretending to be Brad Pitt. The impersonator used AI-generated images and videos to convince Ann of his identity, even lying a story about needing funds for kidney cancer treatment.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And I love you. So believing she is in a romantic relationship with the actor, she divorces her husband, transfers all this money to the scammer. And this continued to 2024, mid-2024. Guess how she realized she was duped? Oh, when he didn't show up? No, no. Ready for this? She saw reports of Brad Pitt's real life relationship with Ines de Ramon. So this girl's like on TMZ.

She's like, who the hell is that? Do we have a picture of this woman? No, no, no. Trust me. You don't want to see her. I want to see her. They don't have her. But look at this one. I love you so much, my wife.

I'm not joking. Guys, this dumb broad gets everything she deserves. But you're ready for this? I agree. The emotional and financial toll led. I mean, this isn't funny. She was hospitalized for severe depression, and she filed a complaint and investigation. And she divorced her husband.

Like, who's taking a photo in there? The odds are there's some Indian guy out there that's bragging to his friends like, Raj, Brad Pitt. Brad Pitt. Almost a million dollars. I had to do one million rupees. I had to fact check. It's 100% real. And then they had to take a story offline because people were going after her and trying to find out who she is. You know what?

Well, I think he's going around the world and he's doing these trade deals. and he's also trying to improve relationships with people. And America has always had this weird relationship with Saudi Arabia, where on one level, you know, we have this detente, and on another level, they do things behind the scenes. Well...

What was interesting is they announced that they were going to put all this money, $600 billion in the U.S., and they're spending $142 billion of it. So Trump came back, $102 billion, and guess what they wanted? They wanted state-of-the-art Air Force missile defense and maritime security. Because remember, they got the Gulf there, and they got the same problems.

Believe it or not, the Somali pirates bother the shipping for Saudi as well. So... He comes over and he gets an arms deal. So that's money going to some of, you know, our defense, military defense, industrial defense complex that raises their revenue and it helps the stock market. But now it's like, OK, how are they going to use these things? Because Saudi's always been kind of two sided on it.

But I think he's out there trying to be trying to. get a better position. So whenever people see these things and they think, oh, I can't believe he's doing this and that, he's trying to get us a toe up. Every one of these things. He's trying to get us a toe up. And I'm not buying off on that he's caving on this or that.

They... Arms tend—not all of these regimes are altruistic. There's a little corruption all over the Middle East, and stuff goes out the back door. The French have been selling missiles and exosave fighters for decades, and all of a sudden they go over here, and then they go over here. How did you get those? Oh, we got them from the French. It's a trade deal.
PBD Podcast
Diddy Trial BOMBSHELLS, Trump DESTROYS Neocons, Putin BAILS On Peace Talks | PBD Podcast | Ep. 587
So to me, whenever it's a big arms deal, one day they're going to do something. Someone's going to do something with the arms in the Middle East. they rarely build up big missile stockpiles like the U.S. and Russia did, stalemate and never use them. Weapons tend to get used in the Middle East. And so I worry about that in the future.

They want to keep pushing it. They want the war. War is profitable. And there's other things going on with – On the corruption scoreboard, Ukraine was listed five years ago as the most corrupt country in Europe. Weird. In terms of everything from trade deals to industry kickbacks. Ukraine is? Yeah.

Good point. Correct. And so now you've got the two most corrupt countries. guys going together, and Putin calls this off, but he gets Crimea, he gets the Russian-speaking occupation, and Ukraine doesn't go to NATO. And if that happens, this is over tomorrow. Is that the right answer? I don't know. But if that happens tomorrow, then you have this. And Zelensky, I just don't think...

Well, Powell... Just told us a week ago that, hey, interest rates weren't going to come down. I'm going to stay right where I am. And I think the economy is OK. So there's nothing in the economy like crazy unemployment or crazy inflation that would lead him to say, wow, let me just drop these prices down. Not happening. And what's interesting is this guy said pressures in the U.S.

You know, things are there. Now, the tariffs are in place and we have to get and I'll speak first and foremost on this, Pat. China, jobs for America, less reliant on China, long term progress. That's what we need.
PBD Podcast
Diddy Trial BOMBSHELLS, Trump DESTROYS Neocons, Putin BAILS On Peace Talks | PBD Podcast | Ep. 587
We don't just need to have all the tariff talk and then the market gets back to normal and then we're all happy. The long term thing is jobs and manufacturing in America and lower our reliance on China. Don't take our eye off the ball. And there still may be some pain to come. But right now. The inflation is under control. And by the way, going into the summer, airfare and hotels coming down.
PBD Podcast
Diddy Trial BOMBSHELLS, Trump DESTROYS Neocons, Putin BAILS On Peace Talks | PBD Podcast | Ep. 587
Airfare is being helped, Vinny, by fuel. So if oil is down, then fuel is down. And then the airline can give you a little bit better deal on your trip to wherever you want to go. You know, hop on Southwest and... Go to some place and enjoy yourself. And so that's what's going on right now. And it also means that interest rates are probably not going to go down.
PBD Podcast
Diddy Trial BOMBSHELLS, Trump DESTROYS Neocons, Putin BAILS On Peace Talks | PBD Podcast | Ep. 587
So the housing market on the buyer's side is probably not going to get any help on interest rates soon. But it's good news that the rest of the economy, that inflation came in lower than they thought. And by the way, lowest since 2021. Weird.

So that $800 is like a car payment. That's huge. And what's very interesting to me is I dug into this and the administrative law judge, Carl Frederick Seligman, he said, well, this is because of weather events. Another devastating extreme weather event would nearly eliminate State Farm surplus. Their surplus was $2.24 billion. This is what an insurance surplus is.

So, I... I agree with you, and there's a lot of Democrat politicians, and I said it. I said it last Tuesday, and I said it one week ago, not Thursday, but Tuesday prior. I said they are running to the center to portray themselves as edible to a hungry voter. But there's two people in there that I think I'm hearing emotion in their voice, and I'm hearing them say this. You're doing it wrong.
PBD Podcast
Diddy Trial BOMBSHELLS, Trump DESTROYS Neocons, Putin BAILS On Peace Talks | PBD Podcast | Ep. 587
And that's what I'm hearing. And you know who I hear that from? I hear that from Stephen A. and I hear it from James Carville. Those are the two. Says, is that the way you're going to say it? Is that the way you're going to do? Then just get out of the gosh darn country. Go.
PBD Podcast
Diddy Trial BOMBSHELLS, Trump DESTROYS Neocons, Putin BAILS On Peace Talks | PBD Podcast | Ep. 587
So now Carville and Stephen A. probably don't have a ton in common, but they're both saying the same thing in a slightly different way. They're saying, you're doing it wrong and this isn't going to do. And Stephen A. is encouraging them to try and work with them, work to the middle and get what you want. Now, does that mean underneath that Stephen A. is about to become MAGA? No.

But I think both him and Carville are out there. Hey, you guys, you're doing it wrong.

An insurance surplus is the money they have to set aside because someone's car is going to get stolen, someone's car is going to be in an accident, or you're going to have a fire in your kitchen, no one gets hurt, but you've got to rebuild part of your house. That is what insurance is for.

And so State Farm, when they sell X number of policies, they have to keep putting money in a savings account to cover all this stuff. They had $2.6 billion in it until Palisades burned down. And all the fires in California led by the Palisade. There was also other ones that were just horrifying. And now they're down to $620 million. So they put $1.6 billion, whoosh, out into people's hands.
PBD Podcast
Diddy Trial BOMBSHELLS, Trump DESTROYS Neocons, Putin BAILS On Peace Talks | PBD Podcast | Ep. 587
Now, those people deserve it because they paid for a policy with State Farm, and they suffered a terrible loss. Mm-hmm. Well, now the judge says, hey, they're down to $620 million, and if there's another weather-related event, boy, that would eliminate their surplus. What's he blaming, Vinny? He's blaming weather. Weather event.

He's not looking at the empty reservoirs, the fire department equipment that wasn't in working order, hydrants that weren't working, and also decisions that they made about not asking PG&E to clear brush and things. No one's looking at that. Oh, it's just the weather.

It's pitting medical doctors and engineers on one side against political scientists and humanities scholars over how to handle the Palestinian demonstrations that have disrupted campus life.

Well, I think Doge has the authority. And a lot of people say, well, Federal Reserve is really the fourth branch of government and they're somewhat autonomous. I mean, we've heard that dating back forever. Well, when Jerome Powell says, I think we run a very efficient operation, I think people are working very hard. OK, maybe that's true. That's OK. Let's say it's true.

But the best run public companies still by law have to have an audit every year. If you're on the stock market, you have to have an audit. You have to publish your quarterly reports.

PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
I think Doge has the ability to audit, and I think they should audit. Even the most best-run companies have an audit every year, so why shouldn't the Federal Reserve, especially with 23,000 employees? And by the way, I'd like to say something about what Powell said. Did you hear him at the end? He said, well, it's not easy to identify with any accuracy where costs in the economy come from.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
You hear that? Yet there's headlines out there saying Trump is causing inflation. So maybe Jen Psaki should go work for the Fed. Apparently she's figured it out. Whereas the Fed themselves are saying, man, it's not easy to identify with any accuracy where these costs are coming from. It's a little early. So, A, I think Doge has the authority, and I think they should.

Absolutely. And as a matter of fact, there's something that impresses me here, and I'm going to throw a golden thank you in your direction.

But the year before, you had a comptroller general of the United States.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
David Walker came and talked. And so you've tried to educate this. But the way I read this is David Walker is appointed by the president. So in other words, the GAO may report to Congress, but the comptroller is appointed by the president. That's what it just said there, right? So there's how – there's like the check and balance of our government, right?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
That, okay, Congress will – is the power of the purse and – The GAO reports to Congress. But over here, the president will report, will appoint the comptroller general who leads it. And that's part of our checks and balances. So I think when you peel this back, there is purview for Doge.

billion-dollar bailout, guess where it's going to come from? It's going to come via FEMA, and it's going to come back to California because the states don't run permanent deficits.

The second billion, he approved a $1 billion assessment in insurance companies. When the state of California puts an assessment on the insurance companies, Vinny, you know what that means they can do? What?

It's hard to disagree with Ken Griffin's argument the way he's putting it. But I think also he's getting out in front. And what he's getting out in front on is about the disruption. The market jumps up, the market jumps down. The market jumps up, the market jumps down.

But the market hasn't had permanent change related to tariffs, nor have we had economic statistics that we can point to related to tariffs.

PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
A long-term predictable market so they can make their hedge bets. So he's in the business of doing that. So you could translate it this way. hey, my business needs a little bit of stability and long-term point of view. That helps me run my business. My business is pretty effing big, and I touch a lot of this economy, so I would imagine you all want me to have a long view and some predictability.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
That's part one. And then part two, along with the long run and predictability, what Griffin is saying is, hey, you don't want any of this temporary stuff to cause someone to make a spontaneous decision about a trade partner. You don't want them to think, oh, gosh, this stuff's going to be bouncing around for a while. They're going to make different decisions.

What he's really saying there, I don't think he's being completely altruistic about the United States. I think what he's saying there, hey, I'm making hedge bets, and I know who the bets I make, who they're depending on for suppliers. I know who they're depending on for partners. And if you mess that up, It's like suddenly telling me there's 61 cards in the deck rather than 52. Oh, crap.

What are the other 11? Is there more aces, more jacks? It's a bunch of twos and threes. I think that's what it is. So I don't disagree with Ken Griffin at the core. However, I think when you break it down, what he's really saying is that in the short run, you're bumping things up and you're saying a bunch of things. I don't want people to make long-run decisions based on short-run chaos.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547

Thomas. So here's what happened. Three things happened. And then there's a solution and there's a way out. The first thing is the number of listings are down historically. Why is that? Because a lot of people have... Those two to four percent mortgages and they don't want to sell their houses. So the actual supply of houses is down. Then we printed money.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
Biden printed money, which artificially increased the price of assets. Because there was more money and price of assets went up artificially, but it stayed there because of its money supply. And then you have demand. People moving to Florida. Listen to those names. They're not in New York. Ken Griffin, the Beckhams, all those folks. Bezos. Bezos moved from California down here.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
So you have incredible demand. So you have inventory is down. Demand is up. People moving here for the inventory that is available and the money you printed money. So the price went up. So what do we need? We need more building in the outlying areas so they have more family areas. Except on the east side of Miami, there's this thing that prevents building called the Atlantic Ocean.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
And on the west side of Miami, there's a thing that prevents building called the Everglades. So Miami is kind of out of space. So it's kind of part of urban planning as industrial areas and things get repurposed to encourage developers – to give them incentives to build maybe more condos and low-income housing so that the workers have a place to live. That's a good thing.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
And if you build enough of them, then you're going to have some price moderation. And if the interest rates on mortgages come down, you're going to have people want to sell existing houses. But Miami's price has gone up, and the overall net price of the area is probably not going to go down anytime soon.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547

The Department of Education was off that. Did they control certain things to standardize testing?

You're letting Alex Jones buy it from himself out of bankruptcy, and he's still going to have a big mouth on the media. Well, so what? If that company is capable of buying it, then are they a bona fide bidder or not? Maybe they are.

So Ruby kills Oswald. It's a quick trial. He's guilty. He goes to prison. Yes. This guy connected to the CIA. Dr. Jolly West. Jolly West goes to review him hour or two, whatever it was. Several, several hours.

Several hours. And you're saying when that guy leaves the prison, He was bonkers. Lost his mind. Okay.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
Yep. I agree, and I'll tell you why. Okay. There was deep investigations. You can go look at the London subway bombings. What's that, 12 years ago now? Something like that? The London subway bombings. And you can go find out what they found out about the radical Muslim clerics. And people said, oh, 20 years ago now. It's now 20 years ago, 2005. That...

People said, yes, I'm a Muslim, but we're peaceful Muslims. This is what we care about. But my son was with these clerics, and it didn't take long. To your point, Pat, what happens is 90 days. That's what I'm interested in. And people said that there were confused Muslim parents that when you listen to them speak, they didn't seem like... you know, out there.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
It sounded like that Muslim was their faith, but they were not radicalized, and they were shocked at what had happened at the hands of these clerics in such a short time with their kids. So there are precedents we have out there to say, wow, something can happen pretty quick if people that know what they're doing get to your kid and get to a person and turn them into a pawn.

There's a couple of things going on here. So let's just for one moment. step away from the fact that it was health insurance industry and all the gooey grime and disgust that we're talking about.

PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
He's on the cover of Rolling Stone as the hot terrorism being glamorized. Let's remember what happened there that a week prior, he ran over his brother, killing him in the police chase. Do you remember that? He ran over his brother. The two of them that had made the pressure cooker crockpot bombs with nails and everything in there designed to go off like a grenade. More than that, isn't it?

I want to say it was 2013. There it was. Remember the romantic moment they had with him. It's the same. Forget about health care just for a second. It's the same romantic response from certain members of the left, socialist Marxists that like it when they think they think of these guys as freedom fighters. They think of these guys as soldiers in their cause. Don't mistake that.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
That's why they're like, I've never been prouder. Oh, this guy. And so I don't know what 50 Cent is saying and what he's meaning or what he's not meaning, but there's a lot of voices go out there like, oh, this is joy from a reporter who's She's clearly a socialist Marxist. She absolutely is. She hates capitalism. She hates Trump. She hates all that it stands for. She's there.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
There is a romantic love when one of their guys breaks through because it's simple. They think he's a soldier.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
The left Marxist thinks they're soldiers. I've never been more proud to be at University of Penn because we helped educate and this guy is a soldier in the cause. And look at the people that are showing up.

That's exactly right. The fact that the victim, unfortunately, this guy that was deranged and it was threatening people, was African-American, reminds me of the T-shirt in Almost Famous.

New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And so now you go on CNN and you sit here and you say race played a part. Yeah, the part it plays is it gives you something to talk about. It gives you something. The United States is not a perfect country yet. We've still got growth and things we have to do. But you know what?
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
When you sit there and you refuse to look at the facts of what's happened and you use – so you refuse the facts and you use – things to make your point and to bend it the other way, you are disingenuous, you are wrong-headed, and you are the racist that's inciting the violence going in the other direction. I'm looking at you, MSNBC. Adam. Yeah, there's... Shoot, Tom's pissed.

New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
Yep, and I'm going to help you. Have it. Watch this. Okay, Rob, can you find us the chart for SIAD, which is the S&P 500 Aerospace and Defense... Index ETF. Yep. It's an ETF. Yeah. SIAD or maybe dollar sign SIAD. Dollar sign SIAD ETF chart. Yep. Yep. There you go. What you can look at is over, and that's like the day. You need to find it for like the year. But you'll notice these little spikes.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And these little spikes happen right after we give money to Ukraine. You want to know why? Because the investors in this know exactly what's going on, and part of that money makes a U-turn back to Boeing, General Dynamics, Honeywell, and people make shit that blows up. Wow. And it comes, makes a U-turn, and that's what's going on. And when you go take SIAD, there you go.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And it's an ETF and it's an ETF that tracks the these stocks. And so every time we give money to Ukraine, you can watch it make a little pop up. It's Nancy Pelosi on steroids, ladies and gentlemen. And so who is unfreezing them? Lobbyists. This isn't Biden. Biden is drooling in the back somewhere, wondering what's in the eggnog. That's where Biden is.

Start with the big expenses, not the little Netflix thing. I'm not supposed to interrupt anymore, but I'm going to push in a little bit here. And I hear Vinny saying, we have an urgent incremental problem with all of these people that are still trying to recover from the hurricane in North Carolina.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
In the middle of that urgent incremental problem, why do we have urgent incremental money going to Ukraine in a war? But you are right. If you step back to the U.S. budget—he's right, Vinny—you step back to it and you look at it as an annual budget thing, the unfunded, committed, you know, future promises in Medicare and Social Security—
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
is a freaking Mount Everest compared to some of this other stuff. That's what he's saying, but you're right. I'm going to side with Vinny on this. When I see an incremental issue with Americans at home that still haven't been able to get full relief from the hurricane, why can't the government be putting the incremental dollars there than sending it across the ocean to a war?
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
That's what you're saying. And you're getting emotional about it because you see the hardship on the people, and I'm with you. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
I wish that happened. Continue your rant, but let me say the people of Minneapolis and Portland two years later said they wanted their cops back. Yeah, I remember that. Defund the police, and they're like, no, we want you back. No, how about refund the police? Exactly. You know what you've got to—conservatism justifies violence.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
This is really—they are living in the coping and in the angst and in the anger and in the frustration and just the emotional, you know, Trump derangement system stress of post-election reality because they hate that it happened. They hate it. I will say what I've said before. It says, look— I, as a conservative, I just think they're wrong. I don't want anything bad to happen to Joy Reid.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
I wish that something good could happen, that we could actually talk. I just think she's wrong. She thinks I'm evil and that it is justified to use violence to shut me down. That is the reality. That is what's going on. Conservatism justifies violence. If you go the other way and you could say... Well, liberalism is stealing with me through taxes.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And you start going down those rabbit holes, it's bad. You end up in a place where people say, let's take up arms against our oppressor because they're stealing with us in tax. No, we have to come to moderated viewpoints in a civil society and move people's minds to a new level of understanding. And what they say is you're evil and you should die. That's what Joy Reid is saying.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
That's what MSNBC is allowing her to say. If it was going the other way, that person would be off the air in five minutes. And that's their point. Me, I don't hate Rachel Maddow. I think she's wrong. I don't hate Joy Reid. I think she's wrong. I actually like her hairdo.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
Well, she lives very economically. Doesn't spend a lot on hair. And you know what? There's people that are on CNN. I think they're wrong and they annoy me. Do they annoy me? Yeah. Do they frustrate me? Yeah. But I don't want them dead. I don't want something bad to happen to them. I want them to come to understand why I understand what I understand. But they yell. They name call.

I'll take you one more. What is LeBron James' salary this year?
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
Exactly. So think of the WNBA. They run the whole thing all year long, and they end up with a $40 million loss. Let's just call it what it is, a cost. For the cost of less than one LeBron James, they can run this massive, diverse DEI program The NBA can, called the WNBA. And that's the point. They're trying to elevate women's sports. They're trying to do it.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And they see it as a marketing cost, Adam. It's a marketing cost. Because net-net, you guys, we're going to lose 40, 50 million bucks on this. You know what? Guess what? We'll keep trying. We'll keep doing it.

New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
So it's like there's something going on where somebody is giving a wink and letting it do it. The next thing is, if this is Iran, why are you testing, why are you using your drones over New Jersey? Why wouldn't you be like over Quantico or places that you want to check out? Or is this just a test? And if it is a test, why haven't we responded to it? Pat and I grew up in California.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And there's these four cities, Lancaster, Barstow, Mojave, and California City. You know what they have in common? A lot of sightings that they think are...

PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And people would talk about seeing bat like planes that didn't show up on civil radar. You know what they were? They were F-22 stealths. So we were testing stuff five years before we even saw it. So I know that we do test and do things like this. But what bothered me, the same thing that bothered you, a congressman is coming out and saying, hey, I'm part of aerospace and transportation committees.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And I'm telling you, it's not us testing. They say it's something else. That bothers me because we do test.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
And we do confuse our own citizens. California citizens used to report it, and it turned out it was our own test. But now they're coming out saying, nope, this is somebody else. Well, then why haven't we shot it down like the balloon? Why did we take our time?

Absolutely. If you want to talk about cars, EU got caught with its pants down because it was kissing up and being nice to BYD because that's the Chinese EVs. And guess what they found out? that they were putting a factory in Hungary and they were hyper-subsidizing it and getting ready to destroy Renault and Nissan, which are partners, in EU with the pricing of their EVs.
PBD Podcast

At that moment, she was not bought into the globalist agenda. And when she bought into the globalist agenda, she bought into China. And when she bought into China, she bought into defending China in the name of the globalist agenda. And that's when she became not a Democrat of history, supporting unions, you know, public school teachers and all of that, where she started. That's when she changed.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
And she became actually not pro-America, pro-globalist, and supporting the militarized weaponry. And I love the way that you just described this as the working lab and the test. It was their atomic bomb that was being built over there to detonate and destroy Western civilization. And now you see what happened to Nancy Pelosi. She's a hypocrite. She's not a hypocrite.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
She changed her mind and selected a globalist future. It's the same thing that, you know, people who come to grips with their alcoholism say, you know, you know, I've now, you know, rekindled the Judaism, Christianity, Catholicism of my youth and my family. And this faith is going to help get me through my alcoholism. She had a religious conversion to globalism. That's what happened.

Well, this chart moves because of the S&L crisis that was in America that started in the 80s. The savings and loan crisis? Yeah, there was 1,000 banks. 16. A thousand banks failed in less than three years when it started because they took more riskier positions on lending, you know, out of greed to get more business. And then the interest rates move and things change. And there it is. S&L crisis.

Let's spend $1,200 and let's save the rest of it. This is not fiction. These are the decisions that a populist that looks at all this, because most Americans are not in the stock market and they think the stock market's the economy because that's what comes screaming out of the news at them. The stock market is not the economy.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
The economy is Costco yesterday said it had a really good first quarter. That's the economy. The American consumer is shopping at Costco. And so – and by the way, the market for an hour and a half is going to love the Costco earnings report. It's going to go up. And so – You know, that's that's what it is. So what is a recession? Two quarters of negative GDP growth.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
That doesn't mean we're in the shitter. That means excuse me. That means that the growth stops. Why does the growth stop? The sentiment stops. And then if corporate sentiment, which was mentioned by Jamie Dimon and consumer sentiment or more conservative. Hey, let's let all this tariff stuff. sort out, then they buy less. That's what a recession is.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
It's not a depression and a collapse of all the mechanisms. It's merely two quarters or six and a half quarters, if it's the Biden math, of negative GDP growth. And so I think Jamie Dimon could be correct, but I... believe he's correct about one thing at the end.

I'm saying it's a bad visual, but I'm saying it's the tariffs. Think of it. Think of the tariffs as having a really bad cold and you're off work for a couple of days because it's a bad cold. And now guess what? And you're going to be back. That's what the tariffs are.

We're waiting for that to come up. The VIX today, the measure of volatility, did not jump back up as people thought. It went up a little bit today, but it didn't jump back up. It's staying at 37, which is to Adam's point about the fear and greed index. That's a sentiment. So the sentiment is actually calming on the market today.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
And people say that what's going on today is some profit taking because it's not America buying it.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
Take a guess. Where do you think it is today? Minus 800. We saw it. S&P 135 down. It's like a yo-yo. Well, no, no, but today they say it's profit-taking pressure, and the VIX only moved four points.

I think the pollsters are just... After the election, all the pollsters went to a B&B, but it's not what you think. Some of them became bored. The others became bankrupt because they can no longer fleece. That's what happened to the pollsters. And I think it's ridiculous that these polls are going up.

It's like I just had a flashback, speaking of DeLorean, went back 20 years to Saturday Night Live when all the drunk guys were talking about Ditka. It says, remember this?
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
Ditka versus all the angels in heaven. Ditka. But it's a field goal late. And it's like, that's what I feel like the polls are. It's like, what's this? To me, it seemed a little bit crazy. But also, you know what it showed me? I backed off on that. I said, why are they doing this? It's crazy. Because it's desperate. It's desperate.

Somebody had the poll do it because they want something and they got nothing. And so what did they go do? They did what Joe Biden did. He didn't have the dollars, so he went and printed some. And they're out there and they're floating this. See, our guy, one of our guys could beat Trump. Well, he didn't. And Trump's in power. Dad's home. What are you doing?

And you know something else? Pat and I will understand that. Oh, no, Adam will understand it, too, because where we come from. You know what we were seeing there? It says, I thought I was looking at the underwriting model for the average life insurance policy. Because the healthier you are, the better price you get.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575

Well, you know what's really interesting about this when you dive into it? You know who the penalty is for? Who? It's for aircraft operators. Weird. So we're going to fine $100,000, $5,000, and five years in prison for aircraft operators. So guess who you're not talking about?

Aluminum oxide, too. Correct. And there's things that they put up there to prevent global warming and reflect the sun. But there's other things they put up there because they want to create cloud seeding and they want it to rain. And so why would this be an issue in the state of Florida? Well, because we have a big agricultural problem.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
industry here and you've got companies that's like hey i like to help the agricultural industry you pay me this and you know i'll fly around see if i can make it rain well they can't so i don't know why this doesn't attempt to make the chemicals illegal because what they go after says it's a third degree felony so in other words it's the guy that flew the dope but the dope's legal

Panama's getting a phone call.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
So... Panama's Comptroller General, so this is a government official. This is like the guy in their, you know, congressional budget office equivalent in Panama, is saying that a criminal complaint by the government has been filed against Panama Ports Company, which is subsidiary of Hong Kong-based Hutchinson Port Holdings, which is the... W.K. Hutch and the guy Lee Cashing.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
And so what people are speculating, and I am, and I don't think this is a conspiracy, it seems kind of weird that a deal with BlackRock was almost done for the two key ports, because there's many ports, but there's the key ones, Balboa and whatever the other one is, Diego, whatever it is.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
Yep. No, no, that's in the Indian Ocean. That's the base. Anyway, there's two key ports there that BlackRock had this big deal to buy from Lee Cashin. And all of a sudden, he gets a phone call, apparently, from Beijing that says, maybe slow roll your purchase here. And he said, well, I'm still upset with you. And they said, I told you to slow roll your purchase.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
Then Panama comes out because the U.S. government was the ones that wanted BlackRock to buy this thing. The administration thought it was a really good idea for BlackRock to do this. So I feel like the CIA or somebody has called Panama and says, excuse me, it is a really good idea for BlackRock to do this. Yeah, well, China is stopping the Hutch guy, Lee Kashin. He said...

Are they behind on their rent payments? Have they paid their taxes? Do you have any outstanding parking tickets?
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
And it turns out they're behind on more than a parking ticket. That's right. A lot. $300 million. That's right. And then we said, perfect. Start the process to seize it. And that's what this is. This is the government starting the process basically to foreclose. This is basically what you have here, which is exactly what the U.S. would want.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
And it says, you know, because we can have a little auction. And, oh, BlackRock will show up and win the auction. And they get the ports anyway. So I feel like what we're watching here is a 3D chess game with the ports in Panama being played because it is strategically important to do what needs to be done here. And I think it's going to get done one way or another.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575

Yeah, there she is. Now, the prime ministers and the presidents in Europe, they want to go out with populist anti-Trump messaging and they want to go scream and pound their fist. So they send her out, who's the president of the EU Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and she's the mouthpiece for the economic Europe. And so she comes out at 7.05 today. We are pausing on our retaliatory tariffs.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
And it's because Europe was looking over at China and seeing Trump says, I'll see your 75 and I'll raise you 100. And they don't want to play that poker game. And so Europe has come back and said, we'd like to negotiate and we're going to pause our retaliatory tariffs. She was the one also said three days ago, Europe recognizes a good deal when we see it and we want a good deal.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
If anybody saw her comments. So that's what's going on with her. Why is everyone so surprised? Why is everyone so surprised? Trump ran on tariffs and said two things. I'm going to get fairness back for America. There's tariffs out there that we don't know about. And I want fairness. And I want to bring jobs and manufacturing back to America. I'm running on tariffs. It's the most beautiful word.
PBD Podcast
China vs Trump: 90-Day Tariff Pause TRIGGERS Retaliation w/ Benny Johnson | PBD Podcast | Ep. 575
So why is everybody so surprised? Why is the timeline here from The New York Times? Why is this timeline? Because it's a negotiation. Negotiations go back and forth, back and forth. Want to learn about negotiation? Come to the vault. Come see us. PBD talks about negotiation. Negotiation is not, hi, how are you doing? How about six? Yeah, okay, all right, bye. That's not how negotiation works.

And then the gap, then you get down to downtown Malibu where the city hall is, and then you go further and you're all the way down to Gladstones and Sunset. And I saw this, and it was driving, and it's like, I've driven that so many times, and it's all gone. You could see from PCH to the ocean for a mile and a half, and there's just what's left of foam poles, chimneys, and that was shocking.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Then I saw, you know, you have the alphabet streets, and you have the—that are up in— Palisades. I remember going up there to see friends and stuff that had done well and bought a place up there. And I'm looking at these streets and I'm like, I can't believe this. This is all gone.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Everything above the Brentwood curve, you know, you would take sunset down and there's like this big curve through Brentwood. And then I look up there and I'm like, wow. And then you start to see things about hydrants running dry. And then you would see things about the insurance, these side stories that were on there.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
I would take my eyes last night off of the fire stories for a little bit and look at these stories that were accompanying. And then seeing Karen Bass was coming back and not talking to the media and seeing that the budget cuts that had come for the fire department. And I started to get really angry. And I see five people died. And I said, that's tragedy.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
But oh, my gosh, I'm so glad neighbors are getting people out. And that number is not higher. When you see all that up there and you see how the wildfires have affected San Diego and the Telegraph fire and all the things that have happened over the last six years. I was really overcome because I remember all of it.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And then I see, and that's just Malibu, and that's what I know about, but the Altadena fire above Pasadena is actually, I think, going to be worse in terms of number of homes destroyed.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Keep going. That's the right two. Stop. Look at that Malibu fire. Now look above Pasadena. That's the Eaton fire, but that's Altadena above Pasadena. Those neighborhoods up there, Pat, the houses are close together. They're not giant, you know, multimillion dollar things that you have in Malibu. Those houses are close together. So the number of residents... Look at the size of that.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
That's three times the size of the city of Pasadena up there. It's horrifying. And the 101.

California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
There's a very famous street called Topanga Canyon, and you can see it right there on the left side of the map. It goes all the way down, and then you can see it at the top. It wiggles, and it goes out to the— Woodland Hills, West Hills, Calabasas area. This fire has crossed Topanga Canyon.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And if you go in that area, Malibu, the next stop there is Pepperdine University and literally the downtown Malibu, core Malibu. This is so horrifying.

Silicon Valley. And it's not even close. Not even close. There's a little bit in Austin, a little bit in Boston, a little bit in New York, California.

Let's talk about what was that, what was that, reporter doing? That reporter was politicizing the point. Who is she trying to protect? Protecting leadership. There are two things. There's just two things in California that are issues here. Number one is power management, and number two is forced remanagement. Forced remanagement, cutting the lines.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
You fly on an airplane, and you see those power lines up there with those large, look like robots standing in you know, that are carrying power lines. And you look at the way that there would be almost like little valleys cut. That is done intentionally to provide fire breaks and to provide access there. The second thing that Rick Caruso brings up is right, is there is proper brush management.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And with all of the loss in California and the budget that's been used for everything but, right, we're going to, you lose it. Now, let's go, water. Here's the impact. What you didn't hear there, let me translate it for you, America. When it snows in the mountains and it melts in the spring, all the water comes down, becomes a creek, becomes a river. And where does the river ultimately go?
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Out to the ocean. And long ago they said, maybe we should put reservoirs here because that's fresh water. And we could collect the water so it doesn't just go into the ocean and collect it in reservoirs. And then we could pump it for people. We could use it for fire. We could use it for a lot of things because there's a lot of people moving to California, a lot of people here.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
That's what that Governor Newsom, in the name of some fish, said, we're removing these dams. And when they remove the dams, the dams create the reservoirs. So now go to L.A. and there's management of dams and reservoirs weren't refilled. And if you fly into L.A. or Burbank, you look down and you'll see these great big – what are those lakes on top of the mountains?
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Those are reservoirs there to feed and protect the people of Los Angeles. And it is irresponsible management. I take you back to the election. Forget that it was about Trump. Go look at the red versus blue. It was bigger than just Trump. The people of California are screaming for leadership. Orange County went red. Outside San Diego went red. California got this huge squeeze in red.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
If that election was held today, this isn't about whether Trump carries California or not. It's about whether the people are screaming for new leadership or not. And they had an opportunity under Larry Elder, but it just didn't get done. But now we've had two more seasons of Wildflower and this. And you see that? That red there, forget what it stands for.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Just say from 2020, 2024, people are getting increasingly unhappy and increasingly discontent with leadership. They want something different.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And I'll put some stats behind it. So I'm not going to mention any. Everything that we talked about Dudley, I'm not talking about any companies that he mentioned. I'm just looking at facts. Facts. State Farm and Allstate stopped selling insurance because of the California Fair Plan and Governor Newsom. Fact.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
State Farm announced last year they would non-renew 30,000 policies and what they called, ready for this, wildfire risk areas. And you're thinking middle of nowhere, big bear up in a forest. Nope. Guess what? They non-renewed. Here's the stat, Pat. State Farm non-renewed 69% of the policies it had in Pacific Palisades. Data point this morning confirmed.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
State Farm said last year, we're non-renewing 69% of the homes we insure currently today in Palisades. Why? Long-term brush risk and poor management of the common area. You can't blame them.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Correct. Now I'm going to the punchline. Why did they do that? Because the county of L.A. and the city of L.A. had suspended brush removal in Palisades. This comes down to the county. Are you joking? Yeah, you can find it. You can find it was suspended here. Casual brush removal suspended here. Limited brush removal suspended here. This is all going to come out because exactly.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
That's exactly right. And who did, by the way, to his credit, what do you say? You said get smarter people in the room with you. Who did he praise? You know, the people in Finland have had policies and they've been doing this for a while. So he's not saying, hey, I'll fix it. He's saying, you know, this problem has been solved.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And so I'm not down on the insurance companies. I'm saying the insurance companies are at the bottom of the waterfall, and at the top of the waterfall is the state with their policies and budget cuts on fire and brush suppression and all the things that they've done, despite the level of taxes they're collecting. And now they collect the tax. They have the money.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Prices of homes are way up, so property tax is up. But what are they doing with the money? homeless programs, sanctuary city programs are wasting the money on non-citizen spends. Citizen spends, you're keeping the valleys and the areas clear of brush and you're working on that. Non-citizen spend, you have all these pet DEI projects. That's the upstream problem. The money was spent on other stuff.
PBD Podcast

Let me give you a different perspective. Well, I think date night with Sonny and her husband are being a little interested. How'd it go today? Oh, it was terrible. I had to read this legal statement into a camera, and I'd do what they told me. And her husband's like, so did I. I had the same day. Yeah.

Now, he's just accused, and this accused in a lawsuit after some time of investigation could ultimately become a federal indictment. That's the apparent path this is on. We'll wait and see. But it does not look well when your name ends up with 200 people in a RICO investigation. This is the biggest investigation since Giuliani. Yeah. Shook the tree and a bunch of mobsters fell out.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
This is this is big stuff. And so and thank you for bringing that video. It sure is ironic that she's up there. So but. If she didn't really know what was going on, right, which is what she's probably going to say later, oh, I had no idea what my husband and his associates were doing. We'll wait and see what that is. But I think it's pretty freaking ironic.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
I think she felt she had to run to the microphone and say something. But I think she's a little tone deaf because the guy that's on the other side has got a whole set of programs and levers that he's going to pull levers and initiate programs. And she needs to be playing nice with him. I think she knows exactly what Trump was saying.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
He was drawing a parallel to what Biden had been giving up assets and doing things. And he's talking about strengthening America and makes a comment about renaming the Gulf of Mexico. That is not something I think she should run to the microphone and be talking about. I think it's.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
I think it's really a misguided reaction on her part because you're about to sit at the negotiating table with this guy.

Yep. So there's a couple of things going on in Greenland and let's let's talk about them right now. Greenland is a people look at the map and it looks giant. It's actually only about three times the size of Texas and it's about 20 percent the size of the continental United States. That's how big it is. And it has, you're correct, that's the population.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And by the way, game one of the World Series was 53,300. So Greenland's population was roughly game one of the World Series. You always got to bring up the World Series. No, no, no.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
No, I'm saying that. What would it look like, though? Let me get to it. Let me get to it. Why all this discussion on it? Because our president-elect is crazy like a fox. China has been attempting to get mineral extraction rights in Greenland. Greenland has massive quantities of the elements and minerals that are necessary for EVs and future battery production.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And what percent of light earth elements and heavy earth elements does the EU need? From China? 81% of light minerals and elements and 90% of heavy elements. That's the EU. They need that stuff to make batteries and stuff. They're getting 81% of one and 90% of the other from China.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
China is looking to corner the world market on the things that make batteries for EVs and other precious metals that are needed in the future. Greenland is rich and full of this stuff, but the 56,000 people and their... And their government, they don't want what is estimated to be, ready for this? 75,000 immigrants over 10 years to come work in the mines and industrialize all this.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And the people of Greenland are like, wait, wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. They don't basically want to be overrun with workers and to have the countryside, you know, you know, turned into open mining. So Greenland doesn't want that. then the Dutch don't have the full bankroll to help all that because you're going to need, what are you going to need?
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
More fire stations, more police, more roads built, more infrastructure. If you have that many people building, it's going to be building boom. So Trump is up there because of three reasons of strategic importance. And here they are. Take a look at this map today in the Wall Street Journal. You have Greenland up there, and now it's shown it is its actual size because on maps, they get distorted.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Greenland looks big. That's the actual size of Greenland. You can see it.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
So now take care. It's massive. We have a space base. There are rare earth deposits on the tip south of Nook, which is their capital, which is where Don Jr. was filming from. And take a look at all the Northeast Passage and all the discussion we've had about, have we not heard about defense and the strategic Arctic submarine routes? Yes.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And that we want to make sure we have a presence there because the Russians just run around there without any. So there is a military issue to it. There is the mineral issue to it. And there is national security because we don't want to be reliant on China. Now, China has been rebuffed a couple of times by the government up there to start the big mining projects. But.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
But Trump is crazy like a fox. He knows that this has strategic importance for the military and for the minerals. And what Trump wants is a situation similar to Puerto Rico. Denmark, if you can't afford this, you're a little light this week. We've got all the money we need. We'll take care of it. Right. So this is Adam. Right. We'll do it. And that's what Trump is talking about.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
So he is rationally talking about protecting something that would be really important. But who else would it be important? It would also be important to the EU that is 81 and 90 percent reliant on these heavy minerals and lighter minerals to China.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And so China may have a troubled economy here as we talk on Tuesday, Pat, but they're still playing the long game on this and they are desperate to control Greenland. Trump wants to get there first and also not let the EU and Denmark sit around for 10 years. What are we going to do? I don't know. What do you want to do? He wants to say, no, no, no. Let's make a decision. Let's do this now.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And this is what's going on. This is a very smart, strategic move. And today, as I was putting this together today, the last thing I pulled up, June 9th, 4.30 a.m. So I pulled everything. I'm ready for today. Article from the information. The electric. China wants to block the West from catching up in battery technology. And I'm like, well, there you have it. And how do you do that?
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
You cut off the supply of all the minerals it takes to make those batteries, or you control where all the minerals are in the world.

California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
I think the evolution is being led by advanced intelligence. Rob, I just sent you that. Just go down to the chart. So take a look at this chart. This is the number of lobbyists and what they spend of all the social media networks. Take a look at the big blue at the bottom. Guess what? That's Facebook. Look at what Facebook is spending compared to other people on Lobbyist Pat. Look at that.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
The big blue at the bottom is Facebook spending. Then there's ByteDance and there's X and then there's Snap and Discord. There you go. So they have been very strategic about their lobbying, number one. Number two... Facebook has learned an important lesson on two things. One was Cambridge Analytics.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And the second was the changing face of Washington, that it doesn't matter how many lobbyists you have, that public opinion pushes hard. And so he sends a letter to the Honorable Jim Jordan. I think he's really trying to reinvent himself, but he is trying to be a CEO that saves his company. There are many people out there that have had problems with underage girls.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Zuckerberg's problem with underage girls has nothing to do with any actions by him. He's got a problem because all of this data has come out, and the hearings are going to restart as soon as everybody is sworn in in Washington, Pat. The hearings are going to restart on the impact of social media and what's called the constant comparison. How many likes? Am I cute enough? All this.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And the impact it has on 11... to 16-year-old girls during puberty and their development psychologically, and that they cut themselves and they're committing suicide, and that Facebook knew about this and was feeding into it and forcing it. So he's about to be in front of Congress because those are going to restart as soon as the new Congress is in and people are sworn in.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And so I think Facebook as an organization has been getting smarter and reacting. And I think he's trying to save his company. Is he reinventing himself? Do I think there's a change of heart or do I think there is a change of strategy? And he's brought Dana White in and other people to be close to him as all of this activity is going to tune.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
I think it's probably 80 percent change of strategy and 20 percent change of heart.

Let's unify this country. Tom, your thoughts. So the tradition and the way it would have been set up here is that Biden and his wife and Kamala Harris, President, Vice President, be in the front row. And the prior presidents would be immediately behind. So that's how the seating is set up. I think it's been kind of funny. I remember when Obama—Rob, you made me find this.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Remember when Obama was sitting next to, like, the Danish prime minister? He's mugging for pictures. I think they were at Nelson Mandela's funeral. And he was sitting there with the Danish prime minister. And she's kind of—she's very attractive. And he's up there, took a selfie with her. And Michelle—there it is. Look at Michelle. Michelle is not having any of this. She's not liking it.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Obama's the guy that gets distracted in class and starts talking to friends in the same row. That's kind of the way I see this. By the way, that's also Prime Minister of Britain. Isn't that David? David Cameron?

California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Yeah, so this all starts and people saw headlines. This is the behind the scenes. This is the deep dive and that's really helpful. So it all started with TikTok is allowing China to get the data and they are sharing the data on U.S. consumers with people that we don't want it shared with and are violating U.S. privacy laws. That's it.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
So the government working together from April 20th to 24th, I don't think there was a single bill during the Biden administration that went that quick, that in four days it went from vote To vote to desk, not something that was this divisive. I'm not talking about a negotiated resolution that been going on for six months. I'm saying from incidents, boom, boom, boom, that quick.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
So now Trump is asking the Supreme Court, hang on a minute. But the Department of Justice is telling the Supreme Court, no, hang on a minute. This appeal was brought forth by ByteDance. So you go tell those guys the law is the law and you need to sell it. So what's happening is Kevin O'Leary is saying, hey, right now the law is on the books.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
They say it's going to be that they have to divest and they've got timelines to do it. So I've got another wealthy buyer, Frank McCourt, who wants to own the Dodgers until MLB told him he couldn't own them anymore and they conducted an auction. So What is going on?
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
TikTok is in play because someone's going to get to buy it in the U S B to be in compliant with the law and bite dance is going to have to let go of it. And then in the U S you're going to have to figure about data and everything else and then find out, okay, now that you own it, can you confirm there's no data leaking out the back from all of our users?
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
That's going to be a lot of rebuild and a lot of things. I happen to think that Kevin O'Leary is not the last name you're going to hear here. I believe my gut, and there's been no announcement, but this is how I read the tea leaves. I think. Trump is saying, I want to figure something out. Who right next to Trump is a very large owner of social media? Elon Musk. Big time.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
If Elon Musk then made the move and said, well, maybe I'll buy this and then I'll own both. Then the ad cost will go up and they'll probably both be profitable. But now you got one guy owning both. And that kind of makes me kind of nervous. I like the idea that Kevin O'Leary and a neutral U.S. partner fulfill the law. But Kevin O'Leary and Frank McCourt do not have experience with social media.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And the real issue with this is all the tentacles and all the leaking of U.S. user data out the back. They would have to shut all that down because that was the point of the law. The servers are in China. The data is going to China. There's surveillance of U.S. citizens in China now. That's why in four days in April, people went so quick.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
But I think there could be another name, and that's Elon Musk.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
I'm going to think in terms of Federal Trade Commission, and I'm going to say no. Because you have too much power in one space, and the ad cost—I am a capitalist, but I'm against monopolies that then corner. Just like I'm against China cornering the world market on minerals and using that leverage, I also am against monopolies cornering the market and extending leverage.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
At the moment, I think he might. I think longer term, I'm not sure if he would. Because I think the longer term, you got to see where this is all going to go. Right now, there's a lot of people that found ways to use TikTok and to make it work for them. To make it work in terms of getting out your message, grassroots, campaigning in the election, also commerce.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
A lot of people have made TikTok work for them. And guess what? The Trump campaign was one of them. They very strategically and very smartly made TikTok work for them during the election as part as a campaign tool. And they used it straight up. And by the way, Trump's campaign had to do all this with people hiding in the background trying to push levers the other way against them.

This is insane. That looks like a movie. For people who have never seen it, this is what a California wildfire looks like with the wind. If you've ever started a campfire and you blow on a few embers to start a campfire, 70 mile an hour winds and dry, dry January, that's what you get.

California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Well, I think what has happened is we... Parents, aunts, uncles have allowed these kids to grow up in a digital generation without human interactions or not without human interaction, but with more limited interaction. And they're sitting there with their head in the phone and they're texting. That's their form of communication.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And when they have to have a human to human discussion and this course really isn't about I'm looking at it. It's kind of funny when I talk about call a restaurant, ask them what hours are open. Why would I do that? I can just go on Google Maps, click on reviews, and see the hours. See? See, they don't have interaction with people, and they don't have to solve it.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And so this is the fault of parents that have allowed that phone to be a digital pacifier. And rather than have your kid having great social skills, you know, I used to – we would go to the airport and I gave Bailey her passport. She had a passport early soon as, so she could travel. And I would say, okay, go walk up and tell them where you're going.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
And she had to have a printed out boarding pass. I remember she walks up to the thing. She goes, hi, I'm Bailey Ellsworth and I'm going to mammoth. And she hands him the boarding path and I'm standing back deliberately. Cause I wanted her to do it and be confident and talk to people. And I remember the TSA guy go, who are you going with? And she says, my dad. But that's my boarding pass.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
She didn't even look back and say, my dad over here. She said, that's my boarding pass. Because I told her, this is what you're going to say.
PBD Podcast
California Wildfires, Gulf of America, Zuckerberg Kills Meta Fact-Checking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 530
Because I wanted her to be comfortable. And guess what? With the digital pacifier, you lose interaction. So you're losing early the ability to coach people, the ability to have a job where you're going to be, oh my gosh, not texting, sitting next to a human being.

Well, I always get worried when war hawks in the United States are not... like aghast at this, which you have to remember, the Pakistan Air Force is the Chinese Air Force. China sells aircraft to Pakistan. We cooperate with India on defense things. So when India and Pakistan go at it, there are people in the U.S., specifically military industrial complex and the war hawks,
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
They don't mind it because guess what we get to do? We get to test our stuff against China's stuff because Pakistan's flying the China stuff. India's got basically U.S. stuff and stuff that they've built derivatively. And so we get to have a little test match. Do you see that? So in the mountains of Pakistan, Chinese jets fly over. Any aircraft shoots them down. And we say, hey, that worked.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
That's a great test. So there's that going on, which sickens me when war hawks in the United States really see proxy wars as nothing more than test beds and economic opportunity for the U.S. military-industrial complex. That's my first point. That sickens me. The second point is... I believe that China has irritated Pakistan and started this and got some rebels going just like the Chinese CIA.

You know, I believe they instigated. I believe China helped instigate this because. There's cards being played. Remember, J.D.

Vance went over there and sat down and talked about a trade agreement.

Lutnick said that, and everybody said, we think he's talking about India. And he says, is it India? And he said, no, no, the president will make the announcement at the right time. But you could tell they're enthusiastic. So India's getting momentum with not just Apple, but with U.S. on trade deal.

They are the one big chess piece that can play on the chessboard with China when it comes to manufacturing. And it would be China's strategic advantage to instigate something with Pakistan and to get them going. And by the way, this doesn't stop here because Pakistan's going to get support from countries that regard, because of its Muslim faith, as brothers in arms.

He just said never, never, never. So, Tom, your thoughts on this? First of all, Carney is here because he has to be, because the campaigning is over. All the picking on Trump and all the picking on things is over. Suddenly he's over here.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
Something he also said in an interview later yesterday where he said he's a transformational president focused on the economy with a relentless focus on the American workers, securing your borders, ending the scourge of fentanyl and other opioids and securing the world. So suddenly Carney becomes the PR guy for President Trump. That's what that sounds like. But why is he doing that?
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
Because the election is over and now it's time to do deals. And Carney needs a trade deal and Carney needs cooperation and Carney needs President Trump to take his foot off the tariff pedal because it's working. And so now he's coming down here trying the best he can to say, well, we're not for sale. But meantime, calling Trump a transformational president. That's what we're seeing here.
PBD Podcast

Well, first of all, you know, the Department of Energy is not a sexy department. It's not like Secretary of State going out there on these trade deals and things like that. But you know what? Doug Burgum is doing a job for America right now, and both sides know it, but only one side will admit it. Because what has happened with EVs and with data centers is he's right.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
We have an energy shortage in America. Despite solar panels and wind farms and things that have done, we have an energy shortage in America. This is why Google is trying to get permits for its own micro nukes to supply data centers. It's why Oracle is trying to do the same thing to get permits. And Doug is out there just absolutely. I think he gets he could be. You know what?
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
He could be like the MVP runner up in the administration this year. I say that because the MVP is going to be whoever figures out all the trade deals and all the tariffs and things coming back. And of course, the market's already back up from where it was on April 1st. So we're on our way back in a big way for people that lost, not lost, but saw their 401ks go down. Now they're back up.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
See, that didn't take long. But right now I want to show you something. I sent this to the. The World Nuclear Association put out their report for Q1 on March 25th. So this is fresh data. Scroll down to the bottom of that, all the way down, and you will see in the world, so the world right now, there are... 66 nuclear reactors under construction, 85 planned, and 344 proposed.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
So just remember that. Okay. China has 30 under construction, 36 planned, and 158 proposed. 45% of the nuclear power coming in the world is coming out of China. Now, let's go down there. We're fighting with China. Scroll down and find the United States, Rob. That's embarrassing. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Zero, zero, zero, zero, 13 proposed.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
That's why Google and Oracle are trying to get permits for micro reactors because they're not getting help from the infrastructure power grid and the Department of Energy. So do you remember... Vinny, too. Here's an easy one. Okay. A great, great question. Tom, don't go crazy numbers, but go ahead.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
But do you remember when everybody was upset about TikTok in China? Why was that? Where were the servers and where do they think the data was going? You did it again, Tom. I don't know. Did you know? People thought the data from TikTok was going back to China. Okay. So if you thought that was a problem, what about if we can't build the big data centers here?
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
And the data centers are built around the world where we can't really exert control and secure them. That means America is using cloud services and the data centers might be elsewhere. It is a national security imperative that big data services are built here. Just like we're trying to help Taiwan Semi build those plants in Arizona. So the chips can be here.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
And if China makes a move on Taiwan, we saw the chart, that there's a bunch of that here. And right now we're in a position where all we need is about two and a half years. All we need is about two and a half years for those chip plants.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
So at the end of Trump's second term, if those chip plants are built, one of the things that Donald Trump can put a big W on the scoreboard is he moved so much chip manufacturing to the U.S. from Taiwan to neutralize that China threat. Well, Doug Burgum, God bless you. I'm a big fan for real reasons, and he's out there talking about this, saying we have an energy crisis, and he's right.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
We need to get permits. This is not Three Mile Island nukes. These are new technology, smaller footprint nukes, but this is what we need. And look at this. Thanks to the Greens and thanks to other lobbying, we have 13 proposed in the United States. And China... Watch out, gang, is building 40% of the nuclear power currently being built and proposed in the world is being built in China.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
Well, I think that's exactly what's happening. They got to get Congress behind them. But Doug Burgum is out there banging the drum saying, hey, we got to get going. Better than the drums and the cheerleader, Tom. That's the Fed.
PBD Podcast

PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
Well, it's a dirty word, and I looked up something else. Can we go back to that chart that we just talked about by year? This one? Yes. What year was the Arab oil embargo? 1979 under Jimmy Carter. Reagan was elected in 80, reelected in 84, Bush in 88. And they made alternative energy a priority after the Arab oil embargo in 1979. And take a look at that.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
So when there was a crisis, America did turn to nuclear as an alternative power source. And now... We're coming on another crisis, and I think the crisis is bigger. I think it's data security, and I think it's having data centers in the U.S. where we have enough power and bringing all of that home.

Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
The other type is you simply create a candidate who is going to work against the state, the country for which you get elected. And behind the scenes, that person is a very bad person. But out in front, they're groomed for it without brainwashing. So you're right. There's two couple ways. Create a Manchurian candidate.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
One is basically a spy that you groom all the way up so that they could get elected somewhere, and then they're working on things not in the favor of the country or the city that they're elected to.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
No, this is Nicole Sanahan used the term mentoring candidates.

Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
No big spike, but we're... The market's all green today. It's all green, but we're not a giant spike. So therefore, the market is either likes it or... Let's put it this way. The market doesn't dislike it because the market didn't drop and everything's up green.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
I think so. By itself, dollar value, it's not as big as, say, India would be. But it's a big announcement to say, I got a deal done, and now we're going to paper it, and that there's enough in there that they're speaking about. Also, you heard in there between the lines, he said, and we're going to take down some blocks on industry so that U.S.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
products can be sold over there, and they can price it, and if the people of the of the UK like it, then folks in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can buy stuff. So I would say on a one to 10 impact, this is about a seven or eight, but on influence, this is an 11. Because it's a done deal. It's a trade deal that's done.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
It says that the team has got it, and it's going to influence the completion of other trade deals, and it's good news. And I think the market kind of expected it. The market didn't drop on it. The market didn't spike, so the market likes what it heard. And I think when you look at all these things, it is – look, we're flirting with 5,700, and we're above where we were on April 1st.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
So now we're at the next tier. The next tier is to get back to 6,000 in the market, and we're really close. So I think this is really good. This is – the influence of this announcement is really big. Look, we've got the deal done with the U.K. Let's get the deal done with you.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
But now we're taking off the tariffs we put in place.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
My closing point is let's take a look at the market for the last week. The market's been damn stable last week. And just sitting there like 56.20, 56.30, nice and stable. Look at it for the last week. By the way, I'm quoting the S&P.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
You're working for a corporation. Except the one on your paycheck, dude.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
Well, I think CNN should become DNN, the disingenuous news network, because I think that's completely disingenuous. She exposed herself. She took all the credibility out of herself, you know, as a host with her statements. And I'm not picking on her personally. What she said was completely disingenuous. Oh, and now you care about the corporations. Well, let me tell you something, madam.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
There are... Union contracts that control wages for the workers. So the people that are hurt are, in fact, the shareholders. They're the ones that will be hurt because without the profits there, Jim's it. But guess what? This is going to be a short term thing because it's up to Mary Barra did not say I'm making my quarterly announcement and I have 14 versus 10 versus 14 billion.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
That's all she said. She said potentially. But we're not raising the prices to the consumer because you know why she had to do it? You know why Mary Barra had to do that? Because of a guy named Jim Farley, the CEO of Ford, who's in a better position than GM is on helping more people in America work in America because Ford makes more in America than GM.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
So capitalism works because a guy named Farley doing the right thing at Ford just forced Mary Mary Barrett to move on the chessboard and say, I'm not raising prices to the American consumer. And guess who wins? The American consumer wins. And guess what? This whole program that we're trying to get leveling and more fairness around the world that wins. And then who loses?
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
CNN looking for bad news headlines, trying to find a way to pick on Trump, trying to find a way to do it, and basically stepping over their own feet here. That's what I think. Welcome, DNN, the Disingenuous News Network.

These are words from our promised Allah. All of the infidels, Americans. We, the Hezbollah, will defeat you.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
I think it's absolutely correct. Whenever you – so anytime – I once read that anytime you bring a third person or a third entity into a marriage in such a way that it majorly – interrupts things is a form of adultery. And for some people, it could be hobbies. The guy that all he does all the weekends is play golf with his buddies rather than spending time with his wife. It's a form of adultery.
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
I know that you went and insert something like that into your marriage. It's that. And these words insert this permanent comparison in there. And it's a breaking. It's like adultery. It's like now there's this third thing in the room. Your wife says, I love you. You supposedly love me, but you love this remembrance of this other person more. And so now you're saying, why can't I be more like that?
PBD Podcast
Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan | PBD Podcast | 584
It's like that other person's in the room. And what I've read is those are the kind of words that have just dramatic destructive power. And so this aligns with things that I've read and seen about how to have positive, enduring, loving, committed marriages.

I'm taking a bong hit, so that'll make sense.

Du kannst nicht sprechen. Was es mir sagt, ist, dass sie nicht Demokraten sind. Sie sind Globalisten. Sie sind nicht pro Amerika. Sie sind Globalisten. Sie sind mit der Seite der UN und sie sind Anti-Amerikaner und sie sind Sozialisten. I don't see any modicum of just appreciation for the country and to applaud a few things that are applaudable. You can't do that.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So what does that say that you really are deep down inside? They're not in favor of this country. They're in favor of turning it into something else.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Well, what's the famous phrase? If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything. That's basically the current state of the Democratic Party. Men play in women's sports. Endless spending, just open borders, Trump derangement syndrome. They don't stand for anything. By the way, a little fun fact. Al Green, the guy with the cane who basically had to be escorted out,
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
One year younger than Trump walking with a cane. Just a little perspective for you. But you know what? I got a little secret for you guys. So, I feel like the Democrats are completely lost. And I have proof to show it. So don't ask me how, but in the mail I got something from the DNC.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay. Democratic National Committee basically saying this is the official 2025 Democratic Survey. Right. And the premise is help us figure out what the hell to do. Are you serious?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
The Democrats are the last line of defense between Trump's destructive agenda and the survival of our democracy. They're still doing that.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Every Democrat, each and every one of us, is a leader in the fight to stop Trump. He's taking office and Project 2025 will be unleashed to the full extent. And we must stop him and the MAGA extremists. Okay? So then, that's sort of the cover letter. Then they ask you a series of questions. What should we do? What do you find the most troubling? Register as a Republican. Walk away.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Take a look, Pat. What do you find the most troubling? The mass deportations, the gutting of abortion access, the rolling back clean energy, the LGBTQ rights. Same old hits, same old hits, same old hits. What this basically shows me, and I'll give it to you, Pat, Sie sind einfach so, was machen wir von hier? Ist das wirklich, was sie sagen?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ja, schau mal. Sie fragen. Sie sagen einfach nur, wo sollen wir von hier gehen? Hilf uns, unsere Agenda zu finden.
PBD Podcast

Und, und ja. Schick uns ein bisschen Geld, bitte.

Schick uns ein bisschen Geld. Ja. Hier ist es. Geld, gut. Die DNC sucht deine sofortigen Fähigkeiten. Ich lese verboten mit keinem Verhalten. Hey, Tom. Deine sofortigen Fähigkeiten. Ich habe es schon gelesen.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I already read that. I don't think that's what you read. I'm just looking at seeking your immediate feedback as we determine the strategies that we needed to block agenda.

Childless women and gays, I don't disagree. Who else?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
But it's just not big enough. But the base isn't big enough. Rob, what are they intentionally doing to expand it?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So, I'm trying to find like the closest metaphor to what this is. And this is what I have. So, Zelensky is like a petulant child. And basically he's like ungrateful. That was J.D. Vance's entire message. It's like you didn't even say thank you one time. So, it's almost like Trump is the new stepdad that married the mom who's the EU. And Biden is the old dad. He's out. He's gone.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Now Trump's in there. He's like, listen... I'm taking care of mom now. I'm taking care of everything. I'm taking care of the kid. I'm paying all the fricking bills here. And you're going to be ungrateful. And then his boy JD is like, yeah, yeah, I don't like that. And just basically like that. Meanwhile, Putin's the town bully in the playground.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And he's like, no, no, no, no, I'm not going to give you any more toys. I'm not going to give you anything. You get back out there and you deal with the bully. And he's like, well, okay. And he gets back on the playground and he realizes, yeah, I'm sorry, stepdad. I'll write an apology letter. I'll do my homework. I'll make my bet. I'll do whatever I gotta do. Cause you were right.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Cause now I don't have daddy Biden there to save me. I have this new mean stepdad that basically stepped in. He's like, no, no, no, no, no. You've been taking advantage of mom and dad way too long. So new stepdaddy trap stepping in. Und du solltest tun, was du tun musst. Oder du gehst da raus und dealst mit dem Bulli.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I'll tell you what I see. I see all of this stuff happen and there is 48 hours of devastating PR for Trump. All the European leaders, we stand with you and they all stood on these stairs and made a big group of them and included Trudeau. Did you see that photo? All the European leaders. But let's remember something. Those European leaders are talking about defending Ukraine with something.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And that is called NATO armaments. That's what's there. This is US arms. And when Trump came up and said, all right, then I'm stopping all aid. Everything stops. And I'm also stopping the intelligence. Everything stops. That's what happened the night before this letter. Remember, Trump came out and said nothing. Okay, dann kriegst du nichts. Und das andere war, er wurde manipuliert.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Zelenskyy wurde manipuliert, willens manipuliert, und er hörte zu, was diese Leute sagten. Geh da rein und instigiere und verweichle und mach diese Sachen. Okay, was gesagt wurde, wurde gesagt, aber er kam da rein und hat sich verletzt, weil es Leute gibt, die Krieg wollen, die nicht um sein Land kümmern.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Die kümmern sich um den ökonomischen Vorteil, den sie von der Krieg in ihrem Land erzeugen können. And those people, you know, manipulated the situation. And so he came in and acted like a petulant little child. Trump said, okay, nothing. He went over and got all the European leaders to talk to each other. But you know what I read?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
What I read was, when all of the war supply is exhausted, that is currently warehoused, that Europe can't support the Ukraine war more than six or seven weeks without turning to US NATO supplies. So guess who's going to need help from us? All the NATO partners. And so they got to be careful with what they're all talking about here.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And I think what happened is all of that went down and then Zelensky came back and blinked.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Yeah, when you're going to feel it soon.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I have a different perspective on this, because anyone who thinks that there's six... Und es gibt drei Liberale auf der Supreme Court. Und die ganze Narrative ist, dass es einen ideologischen Monolith gibt, dass die Konservativen immer wählen werden. Die Konservativen und die Liberalen werden immer mit den Liberalen wählen. Und das ist so, wie es ist.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Und wenn das der Fall ist, dann wird es immer 6-3 sein. Und das ist, was es ist. Und die Demokraten werden das Gericht packen. Das war die ganze Diskussion, die in 2020 stattfand. Aber ich habe ein bisschen eine andere Perspektive. Weil wer sind die drei Liberalen? Who are they? Ketanji Jackson. Yeah, that's one. Sotomayor. Sotomayor. And Alina Kagan. And those are three women.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Who are the conservatives? Clarence Thomas, Chief Justice Roberts, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and now Amy Comey Barrett. So she is the one female conservative. So, who do you think she has more in common with? The ideological, political conservatives? Or the ladies? So, she's the most swayable. Because, you know, when you go to the bathroom, you're with the ladies.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I assume that the men aren't allowed to go to the women's bathroom. When you have lunch, you know, maybe... This is the craziest thing, which I found out recently, and I've known this, but women, they sink their periods. I don't even know if these ladies still get their periods, probably not. But that whole thing...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Aber das Wichtigste ist, dass sie viel mehr bereit ist, auf der linken Seite zu gehen, weil ihre Mädchen da draußen hängen. Das ist meine Perspektive. Warum sonst würde sie Trump mit so viel Verzweiflung anschauen?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Das ist, wo ihre Mädchen da draußen hängen.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. There is something there. There was something on her mind. You could see the very rigid body language and you could see the facial expression. There was something there. And that something is very real. But it's interesting in this picture. Do you know who she is closest ideologically to? Who? The man directly in front of her and the man directly on her left.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Clarence Thomas and Gorsuch. That's where, if you look at her history, the history of her appellate writings and the things that she's done, that's where she's closest ideologically. So I don't know about this, what Adam just said, that she's going to align with... die Frauen. Es ist sehr interessant, dass Katonji Jackson nicht wirklich mit jemandem verabschiedet ist.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Und als Faktum sind sie und Elena Kagan nicht genau nahe. Man kann über all das lesen. All das ist da draußen vorhanden. Aber wenn es um das kommt, willst du schauen, was sie schreiben und was sie unterstützen. Richtig. Und was sie schreiben in einer dezenten Sicht. Also denke ich, dass es etwas sehr Reales mit Trump gibt. Aber ich schaue auf ihr Wahlrechner.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ich schaue einfach zurück und schaue auf das Wahlrechner. And I look at it before she was on the court, and I look at it since she was on the court. And until I see her suddenly broke, as we say in the military, broken arrow, and she flies off, and I see three rulings in a row that are like, whoa, that's really weird. Because remember what happened with David Souter?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
They told Bush Sr., it's a slam dunk. Wow. Tom, you are half right.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Because she does align very closely to Neil Gorsuch, but she ain't nowhere near silent Judge Clarence Thomas. He is literally the most conservative guy on the bench next to Samuel Alito, where she is very center right. So if she did align with Clarence Thomas, she'd be all the way to the right.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I'm not going to ignore the Alito line because it's right there. Oh please, stop playing. If you take a look there, Alito's not on the court. That was like Tom's version of a sassy black girl. Stop playing with me, boy.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
No, I think you're impersonating that yourself. But you take a look at where Gorsuch is and then you look at what's remaining over there on the right. And you look at where everything else is.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ja, Tom, I don't know what you're trying to do. You got caught with your pants down, buddy. She's not as conservative as Clarence Thomas. He's all the way to the right. Take your pants off. She's just somewhere center right. That's all it is.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Sie ist viel älter als 70 Jahre alt und die Dems haben ihr tatsächlich über das Verabschieden gesprochen.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You're saying that Joe Biden is old? You're saying that 92-year-old Chuck Grassley? You're saying that Mitch... Mitch McConnell, who's always having a fall.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
52? No, in general. Ever put on the court?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Adam. After this message, is there... Hat jemand mehr Klarheit, auf welcher Seite Trump auf diesem Thema steht? Spielt Trump überhaupt mit diesem Thema? Interessant ist, dass Shalom Hallo und Tschüss bedeutet. Es bedeutet tatsächlich ein drittes Wort. Shalom bedeutet Hallo, Tschüss und Frieden.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Also Trump, ob es die Ukraine und Russland ist, ob es Israel und Palästina ist, Trump ist, da ist er, Trump ist ein Wort, das Frieden bedeutet und es bedeutet auch Hallo und Tschüss. Trump ist sehr klar, was er will. He's done with this. He's going to take over Gaza. He doesn't even care. Meanwhile, you have the Egyptian president. Al-Sisi is basically saying, all right, cool. Yeah, I'm in.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Well, whatever you got to do. So we're going to see what happened with Jordan. Jordan, basically the King of Jordan, came in about two, three weeks ago. And he basically said, we'll take over sick babies. We'll see if they're going to actually do that or not. But here's the most interesting thing. After the Holocaust... Wisst ihr, wie viele Länder und wie viele Juden betroffen wurden?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Es gab etwa 30-40 Länder, die durch den 2. Weltkrieg betroffen wurden. Israel hat alle Immigranten aus der ganzen Welt besorgnisiert. Sie sagten, wenn du Jüdisch bist und du Teil der Lande Israel willst, dann komm her. Wenn der Mittleren Osten und die arabischen Länder, die muslimischen Länder, wirklich um die Palästinenser kümmern, warum würden sie sie nicht besorgen?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Warum würde Ägypten sie nicht einsetzen? Habt ihr jemals die Grenze von Ägypten gesehen? They're not letting anybody in. They're not letting a cockroach from Gaza in. Jordan is basically, Transjordan was basically what Palestine would have been. I think 70% of Jordan is Palestinians. Why don't they take them in? Why doesn't Saudi take them in? Why doesn't Syria take them in?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Why doesn't Lebanon take them in? Do you know that in Syria, in Lebanon, Palestinians are literally treated as second class citizens? Did you know that? Whereas in Israel... In Israel gibt es Supreme Court-Mitglieder, die Palästinenser sind. Es gibt Polizei, die Palästinenser sind. Es gibt alle Mitglieder der Gesellschaft, die Palästinenser sind.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Es ist sehr interessant für mich, die Dichotomie von dem, was in Israel passiert, versus dem, was im Mittleren Osten passiert. Sie sprechen ein großes Spiel. But at the end of the day, they just hate, quote unquote, Israel having their own peace and prosperity. They don't care about the Palestinians. They're using it as a cudgel to basically try to take down Israel.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
But if Trump's there, none of that's happening.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Tom, thoughts? I think Trump, as he has spoken on tariffs, and I'm not comparing the human life and the situation started on October 7th, with tariffs. I'm looking at the way Trump speaks and what he puts on the table and he is not screwing around.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
He gave them, they have blown through a deadline where they only released about half of what they were supposed to release and they were given a deadline and they didn't They didn't do everything that they were supposed to do on that deadline. And now Trump is speaking up and saying, look, you know, I have just spoken.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
The key thing for me of the post was I have just spoken to some released hostages and I did not like what I heard. How far do you think he's willing to go?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
What is being said when the cameras are off? What is being said beyond the post?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
No, but they're being treated great.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I look at one thing. People are saying that. The Hamas supporters are saying they love being there in Gaza. They're being treated so great.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
It's what's being said behind closed doors and then I'll shut up. What did Mexico just do? They talk tough and all of a sudden they're walking a bunch of guys to the border. The guys that we wanted. The bad guys we wanted. Suddenly they're all shown up. Suddenly they're rounded up. And they don't look happy.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I think what you see behind closed doors, whatever Mexico was saying, but whatever... And what is he willing to do?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I think you're going to see some strategic strikes and some guys are going to disappear in the middle of the night. And how soon will that happen? I think we're hours, not days.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
There is a technicality here. 30 seconds. When he made that first threat and he said, listen, I want these hostages, you know they gave the hostages back. A lot of them. They gave two dead babies back, the Bebus kids, these little redhead kids. The redhead babies. Redhead kids. And they wanted their bodies. Who kills babies and keeps them hostage?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Und die Mutter dieser beiden Kinder, sie wollten ihren Körper zurück. Und es scheint, sie haben einfach die Körper gewechselt und einige andere Personen in sie gelegt. Und Israel hat etwas, was DNA-Testung heißt. Und sie sind so, ja, das ist nicht mal sie, Alter. What are you guys doing over here? So the point is, Trump made this threat.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You don't think that Trump and Netanyahu and the IDF are having conversations? You don't think that Assad and the military is having conversations? And Pete Hegseth and the military structure within IDF are having conversations? And they're like, yeah, dude, the whole hostage thing?
PBD Podcast

If I came and I said, hey Pat, I have this gift for you, and it's supposed to be a cigar cutter, and it just turns out it's a box of hay, are you going to be like, dude, no, the deal's off.

Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558

Nun, hat jemand mehr Kredibilität auf diesem Thema als Stephen A. Smith? Warum? Weil er Trump nicht gewählt hat. Das erste, was er gesagt hat, er sagt, ich bin kein Fan von Trump. Lass mich dir die Wahrheit erzählen. Und Fake Bette Midler da drüben, was auch immer ihr Name ist, weiß es nicht. Das bedeutet nichts. Es ist ein Mann, der... Hör auf mit deiner Stimme. Keine Ahnung, was er sagt.

Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Sie ist nur witzig. Wow, es ist nicht eine Bette. Sie haben keine Antwort. Sie haben nichts. Aber hier ist, was ich sagen will. Die Sicht, und ich weiß, dass Vinny die Sicht immer anschaut, weil du dein Lieblingsshow bist, richtig? Es ist so viel besser, wenn es einen Jungen auf dem Podcast gibt. Because women will just like, they won't say what they really want to say.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
They'll say the things that's like, I don't know, I disagree. It's like, listen, think Bette Midler. And they will serve him the truth. By the way, you see on CNN, who's the guy that disrupts everything?

He's on a panel full of women or female men. And then you go on, you know, the Fox has a show, The Five. A man will tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. So Stephen A. Smith showed up. He didn't tell them what they want to hear. He told her what they needed to hear. And he dropped the mic and she had no response.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I don't think anything more needs to be said about Stephen A. I mean, he said, I'm on the side of truth and this is how I feel. And then he correctly pointed out the authentic results of the election as looked through the lens of history. How is it different now versus what it was? And let me tell you what you saw.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
What you saw is coping and denial having a head-on collision in the middle of a synapse in her brain. Sie ist einfach so, vielleicht ist es eine andere Definition von Mandat. Und es ist einfach so, sie können es nicht. Weil wenn du mit Gefühlen beginnst, führen dich Gefühle zu Verleumdung. Gefühle führen dich zur Behandlung. Ich kann nicht mit dem, was ich fühle, und wir haben verloren.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Und ich kann nicht, ich kann nicht auf die Fakten schauen und sagen, warum haben wir verloren? Wir können nicht verloren haben. Das passiert nicht. I'm not here. This isn't happening. She's having an out-of-body experience. And it's Trump-Durangement-Syndrom. So it's like a triangle.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
On one side you have Trump-Durangement-Syndrom, on one side you have coping disorder, and on the other side you have raw denial. And that's where she was. And that's what you're seeing there. And you're seeing Stephen A. very calmly just turn to her and say, well, if all these things happened in this way... What do you call it? And she can't handle it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And this is why the Dems usually start positions with feelings and victimhood and the Republicans usually start with facts. And when you get down to a core conservative like me, I don't think liberals are evil, I just think they're wrong. But they think I'm evil and they want me to die.

Schau, ich bin eigentlich sehr enttäuscht bei der Florida-Gewerkschaft. Ich meine, die Florida... Wenn du mir gesagt hättest, dass so etwas in New York passiert, wenn du mir gesagt hättest, dass so etwas in Kalifornien passiert, wenn du mir gesagt hättest, dass so etwas in Chicago oder in Blue State passiert, dann wäre ich so, okay, ich könnte das sehen.

Aber Florida, wo Woke umgeht, der freie Staat von Florida... These guys haven't been charged or convicted of anything. It's all allegations and I'm not making any apologies for what they may or may have done. I'm just stating the facts here. But Florida, as a lifelong Floridian, my entire life.

I'm actually like, I don't even feel comfortable saying how I truly feel for the first time in my life, because maybe the Attorney General is going to open up an investigation on something he hears on the Internet. And I get that the Tates say some things that are incredibly shocking.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
But like I made the analogy the other day, it's like when Hulk Hogan or The Rock or Macho Man Randy Savages say some ridiculous stuff, they're playing a character. And in many components, Tate, when he does his online persona, is playing a character. Can we at least admit that? How many times has Tate put on the sunglasses to play the character?

And then he goes, let me take these off to make my point. Like, it's almost like Superman's cape, those are his glasses. So... You know, Governor DeSantis, who we've been very congratulatory towards and, you know, say great things. He comes and says, you're not welcome. Why? Are there any crimes? It's almost like they want to find the man and then find the crime.

As someone who has a heart, someone who has eyes, if you turn on the media and the only thing you see is, it happened again today, they got another one. Black people are going to get upset.

Because PBD had the guy, the Harvard professor Roland Fryer, was that his name, Pat? He came on, black guy by the way, and I'll never forget the story that he told. He came up with this conclusion. And he came up with a report. I think he said he hired eight data researchers, attorneys to find out what was actually going on in the black communities with police. And the answer was nothing.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
The people at Harvard, the people of the professional elite, what did they tell them, Pat? They're like, do not put this out there.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
They said, do not put this out there. This is going to go against our entire narrative. And he's like, no, I'm going to do it. And the findings were this. Maybe there was a little bit of like... Ja, genau. fraudulently and the media lied to us.

I'm just saying, if this were a year ago, I can understand this. At this point, DeSantis is literally irrelevant.

You're saying that DeSantis is even in Trump's league at this point?

Okay, he maybe would have preferred a DeSantis, sure. But at this point, the conversation is over. Trump's the president.

Well, first of all, Karen Bass and Deputy Mayor Seidel, Zach Seidel, have been caught here. And this recall effort, you're going to see more ads and more things that are showing that, oh, I was never informed. They're playing this ticky-tack game. You know, it's like, Dad, you didn't tell me I had to go to bed at 8.30 tonight.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Wait a minute, you go to bed at 8.15, you have to read books, lights out at 8.30 every night. But you didn't say it tonight. That is the kind of game that is getting played here. But guess what's coming out? What's coming out is e-mails saying, whoops. There was emails from the emergency management department, EMD, that were warning him.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And then Seidel gets caught because he said, well, I saw a tentative. The tentative was in the time for the phone call to take place. It said tentative 830. Und so he's saying, well, I thought the whole thing was tentative. No, it wasn't a tentative warning. The time was tentative. So they are trying to play games with everything and it got deeper over the last week and a half.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
It's gotten much deeper. Where people can see, two things happened. Number one, the mayor's office, Deputy Mayor Seidel and Karen Bass knew about it. They knew it was coming and warnings had been received by them. The warnings got worse only 20 hours into her trip. So 20 hours into the trip, it's like, hey man, they just escalated this. And so that's coming out.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
The last part that's coming out is that it turns out that the fire chief worked really hard to do this and that, and there was previous policies. Now, was the fire chief innocent? No. But was the fire chief made the fall girl here? Absolutely. And that's what's worse. So now... Part of the recall effort is going to be the previously employed fire chief and you're going to see her interviewed.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So if, here's my if, if the Angelenos will look at everything that's in front of them and ignore their political biases and listen to people like Sun, who owns the LA Times, And be objective about this, Karen Bass should get recalled. They need about 315,000, they need 15% of registered voters on a petition, basically a recommendation petition. And they've got 6,000 so far.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
They need 315, but it just started. So as soon as they have that, then it will go to recall. But will the voters of L.A. come out and step aside from their political viewpoints and look at this objectively?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I remember he had 60 something percent.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I believe it is, and I still say, if the voters will look around and look at this evidence, this should be a fairly straightforward recall.

My thoughts is, when I looked around the chamber, I was really disgusted. This is a moment where our president comes together and you don't have to agree with everything.

But they do it on particular points.

She's still making testosterone. He. He just changed his mind. And they're like, this is a terrible injustice. I get it. This isn't protecting Renee Richards. And by the way, Martina Navratilova and Renee Richards came of age and came out of the closet at a time when it was really hard to do so. And we can talk about bravery and guts on something different. But this was a terrible injustice.

you know run the entire country without governors is because each state needs its leadership to act local so you can think global act local so but the department of education has has presided over this i mean by definition just look at the test scores look at what he said about international okay who's been in charge department of education okay inherently you're fired

This is of the funding. Now, you want to talk about that's the funding. Now, let's talk about the influence and CRT and DEI and the SEL and the things that are going in there that the government is invoking. So the government's, you know, if you take a look at the influence and control, it's not 7.7 percent. It's greater than that.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And I think that what Ro Khanna is doing is he's standing up there, and it's a little bit of grandstanding. He was just here. Respect him. Thank you for being here. But to stand up there and saying this is terrible, this is public. I was a public school kid.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And what he's saying now, he picks out a program that is doing some good, IDEA, and says without IDEA, then these kids, that's a very political thing. That's a very populist thing you can say. OK, Roe. But now let's go back to it and let's look at all the other things that aren't working. And we want to release the states to not be under the thumb of the DEA. The DEA, they need that.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
The schools actually need DEA, unfortunately. The DOE. And so to give the local, you know... magistrators, you know, and the governors and the mayors and everything to do it.

It's in dealing with all the issues, and rather than IDEA coming from the federal government, Roe, we don't want it to go away.

And I think everybody jumped on. I agree with you on a couple very key points there. And one of the things that people jumped on, he said, we're going to own Gaza. That's not what he said. Listen to what he said in full context. We're doing a very good job there. We're going to do a good job and we'll own it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
What he's talking about is when somebody says, you know what, I'm going to clean up that mess. I'm going to own it. I'll take care of it. It doesn't mean that you're taking possession and like physical, legal, tacit ownership of it. That's not what he was saying. He was in the middle of a rift.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
But even in the middle of the rift, saying we're going to own it didn't mean that we're going to make it like Puerto Rico or Guam or a 51st state. No, that's not what he said, but it was a riff, and everybody jumped on those angles. But guess what? You know what? It's because they have no other news, and they have no other position.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Well, it's very interesting that came out of this. And, of course, the Internet is abuzz with a bunch of elements. There is... Matt Taibbi, Glenn Greenwald, and CBS apparently asked Politico directly, says, hey, here's where the money went. Here's the reference point. Is that you? So giving them an opportunity to say, this is what's showing up in the audit. There's the money here. Is that you?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Pat, you were going to say something? I think it's a little bit of that, to be honest with you. I think it's a little bit more than a little bit the art of the deal. I think Trump knows exactly what he's doing. He may have been riffing a little bit. I think he's got underlying thoughts. And to Chris's point, you know, hours, not days, hours after the election when it was time to pay or play.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
What did Qatar what did Qatar say? Qatar. It's like. Yeah. Congratulations on your victory. And then they turn around, look over their shoulder and say, all of you Arab Brotherhood that are here, your visas are expired in 14 days. Get out. Because Qatar is like, OK, Mr. President, Mr. New President, congratulations. We're good. And we don't have any of those guys. Yeah. But meanwhile, guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Those people were legal immigrants that were living in Qatar. But when it was time to pay or play, what did they do?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And they did not answer Matt. They didn't answer Glenn. And they didn't answer CBS as of this morning, supposedly.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Got you. And so everyone is looking at it, making the natural comment, saying, why on earth is our government, through USAID, sending money to a news outlet? Why are they doing that? This is not like, hey, we're all going to go over to Vietnam for this commemoration of this, and we'll help you with travel. A couple of you extra people can be on Air Force One. Those things happen.

We're getting too technical. It's, did Shapiro help a couple boyhood friends and their wealthy, influential father who had been supporting him? Did he, as DA, allow it to flip to suicide? Or his fingerprints on pushing or his thumb on the scale pushing that? That's what it was, Adam. That's it. Not about the judge. It's like, did Shapiro help this out? How are you getting the wealthy thing?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
They donate 250 bucks. No, but he knows the whole... No, no, you look at the position of him. It's not what he gave. You look at the position of the father in the community and the people that are there around him. It's like, hey, you're boyhood friends. This is now a family of some repute here. You know, we need a hand.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
It's the best question. It doesn't look good. I like that.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
But this is, why are you giving them the money for this? Then there was a... Indication is my favorite. Apparently Politico by a couple hours was the first breaker of the Russian interference story during the election. And so it's like, wow. So now the question is, was the government not only sending money, but was the government also sending narratives?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Yeah, so there's a couple things going on here. The first is, should a radio station be saying, hey, you on 3rd Street where there is a crack house, you got the cops coming up the alley right now. Do you really want that to put the... Put the authorities in danger so that they don't have the surprise on their side.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Instead, you have a criminal element or people that don't want to be caught pre-reacting. Do you want that? And obviously, the FCC, no. But the greater thing is this is all part of... Is this now a tactic that's being used? Because September 26th of last year, everybody got very upset. Like, not everybody.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Half of Congress got upset because the FCC fast-tracked George Soros buying 200 or so radio stations that were assimilated under a group, says Odyssey, A-U-D-A-C-Y, Odyssey, I think, if you say it that way. And he went and bought it. Not that he bought it. That's not unusual. You know, billionaires buy Time magazine, billionaires buy The Washington Post.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And then they put their thumbprint and their influence on coverage. That happens all the time. But this was fast-tracked. in September ahead of the election. And so people are saying, hey, is Soros getting an unfair advantage here to fast-track this? Because the people that were currently at the FCC were giving him the ability to get this so he could put his influence on the coverage.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And now people talk about, well, you know, he was supporting BLM and he was supporting DAs that were catch and release. Is his radio stations now, are they out there? telling people where law enforcement are going to be to interfere with law enforcement's job and potentially even put law enforcement at risk. And that's the story, and that's what's going on. It certainly looks like it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Four o'clock, the story will be Russian interference. And here's what we got. It doesn't look good. It looks very, very gooey is the word I'm coming up with.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
You don't want a radio station to tell the criminals, hey, here they come, because they could prepare themselves. What a shit.

They're on the field, I think, more than they really forecasted or wanted to be. And so they haven't been just shutting people off the field. And neither one of the offenses are these long grinders. And I think that the Phillies got a lot of balance. So I'm like 31-28 Kansas City because I just think that, you know, you can't get away from those game-winning drives where Patrick Mahomes has had –

But the converts sit in the back and study for years and years and years to make sure you understand the faith and you understand the nuances of the faith and understand how you can internalize the faith. Don't come up and go to the pulpit in your first week here and start lecturing people about the way things are going to be.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
If you're going to do that, we're going to get and we're going to rip your face off. Because you can't beat us. We're not beatable. This army of the awakened is not beatable because we're relentless and we will never surrender and we will never slow down. And yes, if you go low, we'll go to the center of the earth. Because we're fighting for something that means something.

We have meaning in this. This is why people watch this show. This is why people come to this show and all this great content people provide us. And Ben Berkham's down now putting his life in danger again. Why do people do this? Why have they done this for years? Why did they do it for years at Breitbart? When Trump started appearing in 13 and 14, we said, that's the guy.

Can I ask you a question? What's the percentage of the people that... But mind you, I'm America first. I know Steve Bannon. What he's been through, just got out of freaking federal prison for January 6th, which he didn't even do anything.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
But what's the percentage of Americans, do you think, that are America first, pro-America, the hell with H-1B, the hell with that, that would be willing to pay the money? Yeah, it's not. It's not about... That's what I'm saying. What's the percentage?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
And now he's gone. He's going 80 miles an hour down a narrow... And now they all know that.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
The most credible, meaning that the government's telling us? Well, government, there's independent analysts out there. 10 million, which I think it's double that, but I'm just saying.

In those illegals?

What did you say? $85,000 in one year?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Yeah, which to me is $20 million. So I went low.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
It was like, wow. Wait a minute.

They think it's a virus.

Of course.

I'm with you 100%. When he says no one can stop China, that one is us. He's talking directly to us. Who else is even interested in that situation? Stop it. You know what I mean? He's talking shit to us.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
It's all one big distraction. But you guys brought up a good point. What a dumb... What a dumbass move. You didn't do nothing for these four years. China has been eating our, like, flying spy balloons. They built 17, they bought land next to 17 of our military bases. A dumb move by who? Like, on him.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
He owns, the Biden, you saw those photos that came out with Biden and Hunter and all them with China and all their guys. Like, they have, Biden is in their back pocket. He's been in their back pocket. Why are you waiting? Why did you wait? Now you're talking shit. Wait for what, though?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
If you want to take over Taiwan and do all this shit talking and do it, you should have done it in the first year. China should have been. What part aren't you getting that I'm saying?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Joe Biden, to me, has been compromised by China. They could do whatever they want. They fly the balloons. They're buying a land near our bases. They unleashed COVID and nothing, no consequences. So why are they waiting for 19 days left? to make moves.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
This is him saying, I've never met any business partners. This is the National Archives released this, Pat. They released photos showing then-Vice President Biden meeting with his first son Hunter's Chinese government-linked business partners, again, proving that he lied.

New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
This is the shootout.
PBD Podcast

Saturday, December 28th.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
So my point, Adam, is being this. Follow me. If you're China and you know you own Biden, you have all this information, you have dirt, you have everything on Hunter, why are you waiting for 19 days to be like, yo, nobody's going to stop us? It's like, what a dumbass move from a leader. You obviously own Biden. You can do whatever you want in our country. Why would you wait? That's my point.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
I would have done it a long-ass time ago. Okay. But the point is this.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
So he's getting out? Yeah. Those are him because he got out. He had a gun. He had two guns and he had devices on him. But as soon as he got out, they just started shooting at him.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Potato, potato.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Yeah, exactly.

I just feel bad for them because you're going to be able to spot which one of those kids went to that Jersey school when you ask them, what's five plus five? And they go, chicken. You're like, okay, you went to Jersey, bro. Rob, that's Rob right there. That's Rob's mathematics. You have thoughts on this or no?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Like actual... I don't know if they let them post that.
PBD Podcast

I want to ask you one question, though. Did any of your students ever call you a gay Jew? Tell me the truth.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
What's your point?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
I just told you that I was a teacher. I don't want to know if the students were talking shit like that.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Not this show, though. Nice, nice.
PBD Podcast

You know, Andy and I had a tour. We did like 3,000 seats. Yes.

I saw a reading of a teleprompter.

New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Let's see if CNN can take the joke that they signed up for. Adam, you saw Anderson Cooper. He knew it was coming. He didn't want to even look at the camera because he knows that they're full of you-know-what.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Well, apparently she was getting ready for a roast, Rob. If you could check this out, she was getting ready for a roast. So she was practicing them here, which is kind of weird.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
$200 million?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
They won't let him? No, he doesn't have the what?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
But here's my question, though.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
He didn't hold back. He didn't hold back. That's what America needs.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
I was right here.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
The president of the United States, who's obviously asleep behind the wheel, said on camera, the FBI knew about this guy hours before ISIS and all that stuff. Where was the manhunt? Where was the, you know, letting everybody know, giving everybody a heads up? It's like... How many times are we going to have a conversation, Tom, where we're like the FBI or all these people keep dropping the ball?
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
The only thing that sucks for us, though, come January 20th, we're going to have four years of Trump. And that's all Colbert. That's all Kimmel. All Bill Maher. That's all they're going to do. It's not going to work, though. I think the ratings are going to go up because that's all they're going to talk about.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
If it's not about DEI seminars or Donald Trump, it seems as if nobody's working. That's my opinion. And then you're going to see the FBI chick in New Orleans talking about this isn't a terror attack. Did you see this? And look what's right underneath her. New Orleans dealing with the terrorist attack. And this is what the FBI says.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
And they went... The audience bursts. The laughter is one of those laughters where you're like... It was so cool. Yes, yes.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
And be relevant, Pat, and on it all the time.
PBD Podcast
New Orleans Bourbon Street Attack, Cybertruck Explosion, Whitney Cummings ROASTS CNN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 527
Yeah.

All sorts of gang. There's symbols everywhere that mean sentences, right? You know, there's one of my favorite T-shirts. I love country music, but we probably shouldn't show the symbols. But people can Google it and they'll know exactly what I'm talking about. I love country music. But people see it all the time. Symbols make sentences.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
No, no, no, no, no. But the symbols. There are symbols and tattoos all the way.

It didn't say... MS-13 in Spanish? Come on, ABC. And that guy, you said you were given the opportunity of a lifetime. This is where reporters get into trouble.

This interview is probably worth two percentage points on approval rating. Because this is... You know they keep saying on Twitter... Did you vote for this? Is this who you vote for? Like two certain brothers who are complete tools keep sending these out? Yeah, well, guess what? If you put this out there, you're going to get half a million people say, yes, that guy is what I voted for.

time. Hey, coming up later, ABC World News Tonight and an interview with Trump.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Welcome to Her Take, where real conversation happens. Let me just take a step back and ask a broader question. I'm actually with Trump on this. It's one of the reasons why I left the Democratic Party. Let's talk about the mistake, though. Lindy, let's talk about the mistake for a second, okay? He had a legitimate asylum claim. Intersex, pansexual, true spirit. What the heck is a true spirit?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Give it to me in English and then dumb it down to sixth grade level. I wake up in the morning and I have no spirit, so I'm like, are they really marginalized? Can I borrow one? I will be the first one to say that birth control destroyed my life.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
The goal is to create lifelong medical patients because that is passive residual income for them every week, every month till the end of that person's life. You've got real conversations that happen here.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Well, I love this because the markets are going to love this. The markets are going to see this as a sign. Also, China is going to see this as a sign. This is very, very big. And if Greenland was posturing – remember, Greenland has an opportunity to get U.S. dollars too with their agreements. And what we want to do in Greenland is prevent China from having a similar deal there.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
But now Greenland – you know what? You better play ball here because if you want –
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
big dollars for your your rare earth minerals you got to take a look at this and see that you you got to you got to sign up but what this does this this takes it one step closer to peace and it now allows us to get the rare earth minerals that we want and by the way you'll notice this is a joint investment fund so there's opportunities apparently for u.s large investors like the banking community or corporate investors no one will like this this word but people like halliburton
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
who build large projects. They build power. They build dams. They build all kinds of things like this. And so this is going to allow the rebuild of Ukraine, which means Ukraine can return to full economic status at some point in the future. It's going to take a lot of rebuilding, but it's going to get there. This is a good thing. This is a win.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
This is a win on the 100 days, and this should calm the markets who have been concerned about this. Most of all, it should settle the nerves of people that were worried about China flanking, on rare earth minerals.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
I don't know if the dollar figure to the United States, but the rare earth minerals, there's hundreds of billions of dollars of rare earth minerals there. Lithium, cobalt, things like this that are necessary for modern technology.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
We shouldn't leave him alone, but I'd like to add he lost his own seat, which is really embarrassing. That's embarrassing.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Well, I'll tell you. Got a fact check there. CNBC guy saying and a couple million people watching. So in the morning, they don't get that kind of rating. So the second part is that this is good. This is another win. And I'll reflect it in this way. You know where the S&P is right now, Pat, at this second?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Okay. So guess what? What? We're now, I believe, at 6.9% where we were. So in other words, the markets are continuing to recover. And why are they recovering? They're recovering with Ws. This is a W. Because what he's allowing to happen, so Trump squeezed hard, and then what did the American automakers say? You know what? We'll try to get more domestic parts. We'll try to source from other things.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
We'll try to do less China. That's exactly what the art of the deal wanted. And guess what? That's good for America. That's good for American workers in certain sectors. And so this doesn't do everything, but they're also talking about this is the first foreign trade deal and now a deal they're doing. So this is, you know, we also saw it. This is the emergence of India, and this is U.S.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
companies diversifying their supply chain, all of which is calming things down.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Good for you, Ford. And by the way, can I add something? Please. Alan Mulally. Does anybody remember who Alan Mulally was? When it was time for TARP, the CEO of Ford was Alan Mulally. And, by the way, I spoke to him for about five minutes at the famous Jobs and Gates event.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And he was there talking to Microsoft about putting Microsoft Sync in Ford cars. Remember when the dashboard was Microsoft Sync? And here's what he said there. I didn't take a private jet to the hearings. Remember when the automakers were summoned to the hearings on Capitol Hill at the time of TARP? I didn't take a private jet, number one. Number two, Ford paid it back.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
the part that they took, but they didn't take the big part. So if you look back at times of economic crisis, like 2008, 2009 with Ford, and now you look now, there's been something with Ford as a company that has not taken from America and has tried to, and I think this is legacy of vision and leadership because it goes all the way back then.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And I give credit to them and I give credit to CEO Farley, well done. And I also go back to Alan Mulally and what they did back at that time.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
I don't have the receipts on it, but my memory is exactly what yours. We're watching. GM took it as a permanent government grant.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
I love it. I love it. Yeah, absolutely. Tom, thoughts? Well, first of all, absolutely right, and it's having an effect. Because guess what China also did? China has caved on the 125% tariff for ethene. Now, you don't think about it. What's ethene? Sounds like a makeup, doesn't it? Ethene is a gas that when you process it, it makes ethylene.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And polyethylene, also known as PE, is pronounced plastic. We send... and China blinked on a tariff on exports so they could get the Athene. And guess what? They did that yesterday. So they're starting to blink, and they're starting to have issues. The president is right. They can't survive at certain things, but they don't care about their people, and they will go long on pain.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
They will go long on pain on certain things. China absolutely will. But the president's absolutely right. And he's also right to... The reporter, once again, is trying to put a statement out and let the statement indict the president. And he's like, you don't know that. You don't know what the tariffs are going to work on or off or what they're going to do.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
But he says, I think they're going to eat the tariffs. In other words, eating the tariff means, crap, we're going to wait this thing out. That's what we're going to do. And we're going to win this thing on time. We're going to take the long game. We're going to eat it. In other ways, like on Athene, they need the Athene because they can't make plastic without it.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And so they caved on the 125 on that.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
So first of all, UPS made a bad deal with Amazon. They wanted all that Amazon volume, and they made a bad deal. It's an unprofitable deal. Wall Street Journal, UPS will fire 20,000 workers, and the Wall Street Journal tells the truth. It isn't why you think, right there in the headline. See that, Vinny? It isn't why you think. And they go on to say it's not the tariffs.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
It was the fact they made a... crappy deal with Amazon, and guess what? Now they have to back off of it. And then they made a crappier deal with the Teamsters for $100,000 truck drivers. Now, I'm not saying the UPS drivers are out there taking risks, wind, sleet, snow, all that, and delivering. They don't deserve a livelihood. That's not what I'm saying.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
I'm not saying they don't deserve a living wage. That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that UPS got backed into it where the Teamsters determine who keeps the job and who doesn't. And Sean O'Brien, Teamsters president, came to the microphone and said, may I remind everyone that UPS is obligated to create 30,000 jobs under the current contract.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
I do not object if you want to downsize management, but you're in for a hell of a fight if you move on any Teamsters jobs. So now you're handcuffed. You can't run your company the way you should. So UPS made a bad deal with Amazon. They made a bad deal with the Teamsters. And now they've got these issues, and now they've got to cut these things.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
So the non-union people working in a warehouse or non-union warehouse worker, the warehouse is getting closed. Guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Guess what? Bad policies have consequences. And New York's bad policies, even people that do not want to move from the New York area, they move to Westchester. They move to Long Island. So they're outside of New York City. The issue here is New York City. It's not New Yorkers. It's not people in the Northeast. It's not businesses in the Northeast. It's NYC, New York City's management.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And this is what they get. All of these folks have left, whether they left locally, 138,000 going to Long Island. We know a few people out there. And then 60,000 going to Westchester County, which is up Pound Ridge area, Armonk, bordering Connecticut. And or you had the 50,000 people with 190 and 266 average salaries. It's bad policies in New York. Move them all down here. And you know what?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Whoever is the next mayor is going to be looking for EBT cards to give city employees because this is deadly on the city budget. New York City is about to become a welfare recipient of New York State and the federal government worse than it has been. Mark my words. And I don't mean that to sound harsh, Pat, but New York City is about to turn itself into
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
into a welfare queen looking for money from other people because bad policies have consequences, and whether it's local or Florida, its own residents are leaving.

State and local taxes.

But what you're not is honest. You're not honest about it. You're not saying, look, I voted for this, and this is not what I wanted, and this is not the New York that I grew up in. This is not the New York that I want to live in. I said that about Los Angeles. I said, but you know what? I'm going to stick it out, and I'm going to stay here, and I've got the resources to do it.

Well, if you take a look at grand theft, you've heard of this. What's grand theft? You stole more than $5,000. Depending on the state, some states have minor grand theft at 750. Florida's got a third-degree grand theft. You enter the super bonus round at 100,000, which is big penalties and big prison time. But grand theft is a limit that is set by law so that you're no longer misdemeanor.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
You've entered—you've gone to the collegiate level— of penalties, grand theft. So what they're saying, I think car thefts are going to go down in California because it's still $5,000 for grand theft auto. That's not a video game. That's actually a crime, grand theft auto.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Vinny, go. $2,000 a month times 12 months, one year would be $24,000. So if I made a fake ID to get that fake ID, welfare every month... for a year, $24,000. No problem, Tom. Keep the money. We won't charge you. Get it? That's what they're doing. So instead of... I think this is going to cause car thefts to go down because you can go to jail for a long time for car theft, but...

25,000 grand theft. Let me go to the next one.

They were chaining up because San Francisco made under 900 a non-punishable offense. So people would shoplift. So they made the shampoo $901. I got to tell you, remember when our friend Ricky used to be on the podcast?

And by the way, did you see the quote there? It came from Governor Newsom's office. It didn't come from actual Gavin Newsom. It didn't say, said the governor. It came from his office. Because his office has two parts. He has the Office of Public Policy and Office of Legislative Affairs. So it came from Governor Newsom's office.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
So Gavin Newsom can say, well, it came from my office, and there's people looking into that. I didn't. I personally didn't. You have to catch these nuances that are coming out. But the strategy in California is decriminalize everything. It's not your fault.

Like, where are the kids? So what you're saying is sex trafficking is a big business. I heard you say it's a big business. Sex trafficking is a big business. Sex trafficking minors is a big business. And if this is true and this comes down, we'd like to see indictments. If, in fact, you know, the Department of Government was acting as a criminal enterprise, some heads have got to roll.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
That's a factual statement based on the way the laws work.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And you want to reflect it, bring it around full circle? Go ahead. Who is the state of California going after? Who are they suing as of two weeks ago? Who? Who did Gavin Newsom say he's suing? The Trump administration. Exactly. So they're suing the Trump administration. By the way, what was the S&P on April 1st where we were all worried about Liberation Day? Did it go up? It was 56-33.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
You know what the S&P is as of this moment? What? 56-39. Oh, weird. So the entire loss from Liberation Day has been eliminated a little at a time as these little wins and big wins are piling up. But the state of California lets all this stuff go on, yet they're suing the president under the things for the tariffs. And guess what the markets are saying? California, you're wrong.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
I said it on a previous podcast, and I will say it again. This guy is not a loser. He's their king. It was amazing what he did. All he had to do when Trump said, you know, Governor Trudeau came down to visit me. He said Governor Trudeau. He didn't say Governor Polivet. He said Governor Trudeau. And then he said 51st State. To me, I would have walked through that open door and saying Canada.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Do you want Trudeau's Canada? Because Trudeau's Canada is a wimpy little Canada that should be the 51st state. But I'm here to tell you that I am with sovereign Canada, and I am with the Canada of tomorrow. And the Canada of tomorrow is the United States' best partner, and the United States is our best partner. That's the Canada tomorrow. Do we want to go there? Is this where we want to go?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Do we want to affect the taxation that's here? Do we want to embrace the spirit of the truckers that Trudeau froze their bank accounts and stopped them on the road? Do we want that spirit? I am with Trump because we will be his best partner. He will be our best partner. And he's talking about Trudeau, and he's talking about failed policies.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
That's who he's talking about when he calls him Governor Trudeau. But we are sovereign Canada, and I want to take Canada to tomorrow. That is a leader and a vision statement. That's all he had to do.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Bingo. Bingo. Tom, thoughts? Well, I'll tell you what's going on here. Rob, if you could pull this up so people could see a chart. Search for CNBC, two charts, TMSC. And you'll find it. It goes back... There it is. You see that? That blue part, Taiwan, that's what China wants. That is the world market share of critical chips, Pat. And that's what the risk of China is. And guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Part of that's going to be red, white and blue because part of that is now going to go to the USA because one third of TSMC supposedly is going to be built in the USA. But that's the risk of China taking that market share on chips and holding the world there. And what we've done here is
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
is they already had a grant, and they already had an economic incentive, but now they're talking about a third chip plant in Arizona. So not only have we got a couple, just in the last two days, look at the win on India, look at the win that's happening here, and this announcement here, this is long-term U.S. jobs, and this is de-risking China. And so you said it on the last podcast, hey, folks,
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
It would only take 30 days and a set of announcements to suddenly win, win, win, win, win, and the whole grade is an A+. And you know what? I feel it coming. I feel it coming.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
This is so critical. This is a three-sided win here. It's a win for workers in Arizona. It's a win to help get ahead of China and market share and move a bunch of chips over to the U.S. We will have more chip manufacturing opportunities. five years from now here than South Korea does. So that protects our destiny because technology is a destiny, and the destiny of technology is chips.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And so this is great on that second line. And then the third line is it takes away some of the threat of the sudden disruption if China makes a move on Taiwan.

I can't speculate on that, but what the American people are about to find out is Secretary Gabbard is – is on the cusp of an announcement that she says, and we're going to, I think, see truth. And we're going to see truth-connected things that I think a lot of people have already been talking about, already been speculating. She was very well-spoken, very carefully spoken.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582

Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Knowing what happened and cutting it off for next time and not having these things happen and not having our government operate like this is what's important.

Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Well, mens rea is how it goes, is you had the cognizant awareness and ability to reason when you committed the crime.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
So... This is where they use the insanity of defense or where you have certain killings and they say moment of insanity, moment of blackout, you know, a horrible thing like that horrible thing we talked about in China.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
this man is forced to bury his son alive, and they said he gets up incredibly angry, completely freaks out, and leaps on a guard with a piece of rope and just chokes him there, and you're unable to get him off and do it like that.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
At that moment, he does not have mens rea, because he is operating completely outside of himself because of his sheer grief and the horror that he was just subjected to, that his mind has snapped, and he's not responsible at that moment for having the kind of logic you would have. Make sense? And they're saying,
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Basically, because of drugs, Diddy was so out of his mind, apparently for a number of years, over 64,000 victims by some counts, right? Allegedly, right? That he wasn't able to do it. This... Pat's right. You know what this is? This is a Hollywood script they're trying to write. You know what this is, Pat? This is a Hail Mary against the wind in a snowstorm in Buffalo. That's what this is.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And it's being called out by newspapers that are like, And really, the headline should be this, Pat. Is that the best you got? Yeah. That's your alibi? Yeah. That for a period of years, apparently, he had no marbles.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
You want us to believe that. Well, he had some marbles, but they weren't his. Look, even the best lawyers, best defense lawyers in the world have a hard time putting a defense up when the evidence becomes so compelling and the stack gets higher. And I think that's what I suspect that's what's happening here.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
When they have to go to the point that say, oh, he was completely out of his mind doing drugs. Really? Which ones? The ones he supposedly committed in New York? The ones he supposedly committed at the VMA Awards? The ones he supposedly committed in L.A.? Which ones are we talking about? So you're telling me he was on drugs for a matter of years and was just so completely blotto?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
It's over. And I'd love to hear from a lawyer like a Megyn Kelly or people who are lawyers because I think this is just a Hail Mary, and it is like the last item in the box.

Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
First of all, ABC got caught because ABC didn't think there was any referrals. And so they were going with the statement to start the assertive part of the interview with not looking like you're attacking the president. Make a statement that attacks the president. Do you see what I mean? Let the fact attack them. There have been no referrals to the Justice Department.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Does the inflammatory statement surprise me with JB Pritzker? It's not a dog whistle. When you hear him speak, the position is so easy to see. Like on Google satellite maps of Chicago, Governor Pritzker is easy to see. So I think you've got opportunities here to either be upset at this or to respect your opponent and how they might be drafting. I never, never, never... pick on a last-place team.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And I'll tell you why. Because they're about to get draft picks that can change the game. And I think that Van Jones is not just screaming at microphones. He's being very methodical. And people on his side are going to start listening to him. Yeah. He's saying we need to find a measure. We have not found the angle. We have not found. So you know what he's doing?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
He's not screaming like Whoopi Goldberg. He's not just repeating, you know, pablum to the masses on their side the way, you know, Rachel Maddow is. He is trying to find a strategy. And I respect Van Jones for doing that, even as I disagree with Van Jones on his principles and foundations. And now you've got J.B. Pritzker is up there. Where was he? Where was he speaking? In New Hampshire.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
In New Hampshire. Why is he speaking in New Hampshire?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
He's up there starting. And so I respect the fact that they're out there trying to put it together. And the slogans aren't going to do it. We're going to stand on the soapbox and we're going to punish them at the ballot box. Oh, that's very nice. That's a political. So that's a red meat line and everybody cheers. And I said, but wait, what do we what do we say when we're on the soapbox?
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
What do we do? He left that out. There's two pieces of bread and no meat. That's when you talk to political strategists, they say that's what it is. And it gets everybody to cheer and clap. So you don't have to go police crap like Jeb Bush. It just goes. And so that's what I think. I respect what they're trying to do.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
He's like, you don't know that. And see, what they don't know and don't understand is there are closed hearings. That's not what a grand jury is about. You'll hear a grand jury has been convened in Miami to look into this, and those are closed. We don't know who's in there as witnesses. We don't know what the DA is looking at. Sometimes you hear what the topics are.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
I think Pritzker is a more formidable candidate that people think on the on the core.

one angle because i happen to think she's smarter than people think i don't think some of the things she says i agree with and i think sometimes she's missed the mark and what she wants to do but she went she went to boston university she graduated with honors and was a double major and people try to portray her as this this this silly bartender that's not who she is i don't agree with her positions but i respect what she's doing and i respect which one of us is the
PBD Podcast

And so they come out and make that statement, and he slapped them. He absolutely bitch slapped them. You don't know that. Excuse me. What are you talking about? You don't know that. It says there have been referrals. And now the guy's like, I'm asking you, sir. That's the recovery. Oh, I'm asking you, sir. You know you screwed up. That wasn't his angle.

So point, point one, um, My daughters are not allowed to buy in into this. And I shouldn't say not allowed. My daughters don't buy into this because I give them the facts and the rationale for why we have families and what we do going forward. And so and I point out the pitfalls and all the headwinds and everything you're going to face. Point one. Point two.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
For people to say, you know, my daughters aren't going to have kids, I understand the logic. They look at this world. They look at everything that's going on. They look at themselves as having to go, you know, raise a family and the complexities and what that's going to cost. And they see that. And they don't have someone like me sitting next to them with an alternative point of view.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
Because the guy you're talking about is a smart guy with smart daughters. But I'm telling my daughters, listen, you can have your career and you can grow this. Let me tell you about Jennifer. I sat side by side with Jennifer. She had kids. And we work together with a very fast-moving and very complicated company, and it's still there.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And I'll tell you, you know, I see how it worked, and that's how I feel. Now, the other side here, I don't think the ultimate solution is, oh, the government swoops in and says we have to have forced parental leave, companies have to have this expense, and then – Well, we have to have guaranteed health care the rest of the world. That's a whole different. She's inserting a sentence there.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
And that's a program I'd like to debate her on because guaranteed health care like the rest of the world. Let's pull that out. She's talking about affordable child care and paid parental leave. So she's saying that the government is the solution. And I just don't disagree with that. I just don't disagree that just keep dipping into the ladle and handing it out from what? Taxing everybody else.
PBD Podcast
Trump OWNS Reporter & RFK EXPOSES Child Trafficking | PBD Podcast | Ep. 582
You create this circle where people conclude, man, this is so complex. I'm not going to have kids. So I think she's rational from her own point of view, but I disagree with it. I think it creates unintended consequences the other way.

China ATTACKS U.S., FSU Campus HORROR & Kilmar Abrego-Garcia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 578 | LIVE @ The Boardroom
So Trump, so this is one of the things where you have to remember, our president is showing leadership here. He was trying to get out in front of this. He knew China is going to play this card. And he's trying to get out in front of it and saying, hey, we're giving all this money to Ukraine. They've got rare earth minerals. You know, it's like they say, PayPal now accepts Bitcoin.

And by the way, Greenland only has 54,000 people, which is basically a sold-out baseball game at larger stadiums. That's it. And so Trump has been trying to get out in front of these things, because he knows the chess game he's going to play. And I think people need to... Hey, it's in a pinch right now, and he's still got to negotiate it. But this is playing out in front of our very eyes.

All of them at one moment have been like, what do I do with this guy? I can't executive order the guy? No, you can't. And then Jay Powell calmly says, well, our independence is a matter of law, and I'm not going anywhere. That's it. And that's the truth about it. And so what Trump wants him to do is to cut interest rates. But inflation has not popped back up.

China ATTACKS U.S., FSU Campus HORROR & Kilmar Abrego-Garcia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 578 | LIVE @ The Boardroom
It's like a tenth of a percent, two tenths of a percent. It hasn't gone crazy. Unemployment hasn't gone crazy. We haven't had 100,000 people laid off from GM. So Jay Powell says, look, I move interest rates to help businesses when macro things, when numbers move. Vielen Dank. And Trump desperately wants Jay Powell to cut interest rates at the upcoming May.
PBD Podcast
China ATTACKS U.S., FSU Campus HORROR & Kilmar Abrego-Garcia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 578 | LIVE @ The Boardroom
He wants a quarter point cut at the upcoming May. Why? Because it loosens up credit for companies to invest and to do things. That's what every president wants, is lower interest rates for housing stimulation and for loans for businesses. And Powell is like, he's not a cantankerous guy. He's a hard guy to hate, you know, right? He's like your kind grandfather, Jay Powell. You can't hate the guy.

Because what will happen is crime statistics are going to go up. We're going to have problems with that. And so we need this. We need this so that it is a noble profession to be in law enforcement.

Tom. I'm with Vinny. Somewhere along the way, there's a sign that somebody ignored. And you hear later about these things. They suppressed information from the public on the horrible shooting that was in Tennessee at the school. And you later found out about the manifesto. And you later found out about the signs that were there ahead. And nobody did anything about it.

Or they didn't do enough about it. Or they knew about it, but it wasn't, oh, it's really not my place. And now you have this two problems here. If you have a weapon, you have the responsibility to secure it so that only you have access to it. That's it. Simple as that. And then second, what were the signs with this kid?

My point is, when we peel back the onion and we finally are given all, when the public is finally given all the news, as there was with the Tennessee shooter, there are signs and there are things that people saw. And I just go to the first point. It's your responsibility to secure your weapons so you are the only one that has access to them. That's it. That's point one.

So the mom was invited to the White House and it, you know, this is Holy Week. And I think it's only the grace of God that she was able to hold herself together and to describe her.

Yes. And so you're looking at... What level of criminal is capable, not just of a crime, but of that level of a crime? And the MS-13 gang members have been indoctrinated into this culture of extreme dark criminality, extreme. And so now...
