	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Today is Monday, March 10th, 2025, episode number 758. Please remember to like, share, follow, and hit the notification button so you know when we go live on this show.
	You are in the litter box with Jules and Cat Turd.
	Hey there, Cat.
	How are you?
	Hey, hey, hey.
	How goes it today?
	Twitter's been down.
	I know.
	I bet you haven't known what to do with yourself.
	I thought of you immediately.
	I've been fighting it all day because, you know, it's just like in and out.
	He did go down for me for a couple hours or three today.
	So, yeah, it's a cyber attack.
	They're coming after him.
	All these leftists, man.
	I'm glad everybody knows who the evil people in the world.
	It truly is.
	All this because Elon's trying to wipe government waste out.
	These are these people.
	They're told to do this because they're zombies.
	They're not only told to do it, they are paid to do it.
	They absolutely are.
	This is a coordinated effort, just like all of it is.
	And hey, money talks, and you have got some of the best, I hate to say it, but some of the best hackers are on the left, and they love stirring this kind of stuff up.
	They truly do.
	They're known for it.
	I mean, you don't have a whole bunch of conservative...
	Hackers out there, right?
	At your disposal.
	But you definitely do on the left.
	Yeah, so I don't think the left has the best tech people in the world.
	I think the right does now.
	It used to be the left.
	It's just that they're not criminals.
	This is the thing.
	I mean, it's really something.
	But I do know that just as far as hiring people, there was a long, there was definitely a dry spell.
	Where you couldn't find anybody because this whole entire environment was so hostile that people were having a hard time finding, you know, conservatives that would work on conservative platforms.
	They really were.
	I mean, my IT guy was loving life because he was like, huh, I'm a conservative.
	So, you know, I can go and work for all of these different platforms that have just started as a result.
	You've got a whole bunch of leftists that were running Twitter, that were running Instagram, that were running Facebook, that were running everything.
	Exactly.
	Also, if X goes down in the middle of this broadcast, if you listen to it on X, you can always go to Rumble.
	I've got it posted on my site.
	Excellent.
	Perfect.

	After the show, we can talk about the market and the volatility and all the different things that are going on.
	But he's a wealth of information and really looking forward to him today.
	Fun stuff.
	But goodness, they're going to do everything that they can to shut down freedom of speech, information.
	A lot of people, that's the only place they go is on X and Rumble and different platforms to find out what's going on.
	And it was down for the East Coast.
	I didn't have any issues with it, but I'm on the other side.
	It's been just since I got up this morning, it's just been...
	Off and on, but mainly off.
	Wow.
	Well, at least they identified who the hackers are.
	Has Elon said what happened?
	Well, they've claimed that.
	They don't mean it's them.
	You know, they do that all the time.
	Every time there's a hack, about 15 people come out and claim it's them.
	Mm.
	So...
	I mean, therefore I am, is saying that the hacking group, the name of them is Dark Storm Team.
	This is who's claiming it anyway.
	They claimed responsibility on Telegram for repeatedly taking down X today.
	Their history suggests geopolitical motives and they have expressed support for Hamas.
	Oh, sounds like a lovely group of people.
	Wonderful.
	Crazy.
	But that's the thing.
	I mean, they don't want you to have free speech.
	I don't know what leftists really expect to have happen, but apparently they're just all into, if you support the Democrat Party or anybody on the left right now, then that just means you're into communism, as far as I can tell.
	They take away your rights.
	They force you to wear masks.
	They put biological weapons on you.
	I mean, what exactly do you support at this point?
	Crazy, crazy stuff.
	Yeah, and the DOJ is going to have to get tough.
	If you're firebombing Tesla places, you're a domestic terrorist.
	If you're burning cyber trucks, you're a domestic terrorist.
	If you're hacking, you're a domestic terrorist.
	The DOJ is going to have to get tough.
	Now, I love what I've been watching Cash, and Cash ain't saying a lot, but he's doing a lot.
	He's been giving all those requests.
	That they stonewalled from Garland and Ray all the requests to getting all this information from the FBI. He is releasing it all to Congress right now as fast as he can.
	Fantastic.
	That is definitely what's needed.
	He's rested a few traitors.
	And I'm still willing to give Pam Bondi a little bit longer, but she's going to have to get tough, man.
	And I don't want to see her on Fox News one more time.
	I want to see her going to the microphone saying...
	These people, they're bombing them.
	We're going to find out who you are, and you're going to go down for 20, 25 years.
	Got to get tough.
	Got to go out and stay.
	But no cliché.
	These cliché talking points going on.
	Sean Handy every other day.
	We don't want to see that crap no more.
	No.
	That ain't going to work with us.
	We're way past that.
	We're trying to save the country from a bunch of commie rats.
	We don't want her to explain it.
	We want her to do it.
	Yeah.
	Don't tell us how it's done.
	We're not interested.
	Just get tough and start doing it.
	And start doing it hard.
	I mean, you have to, she really needs to understand because, honestly, she has not been in this fight.
	Like, we have been, in the sense of, we've been on social media, we have been attacked, we have been swatted.
	I would add swatting to that list.
	When you talk about how conservatives as a whole have been treated by the left and under the Biden regime, we are angry, we are frustrated, and we want this whole thing to be resolved immediately.
	Look who's been fighting every day, too.
	The hardest.
	I mean, Cash has been.
	He's on our podcast, on everybody's podcast.
	Fighting.
	That's why he knows.
	During the whole four years.
	Dan Bongino, the number one podcast.
	Fighting.
	Pete Headsets on Fox and Friends every morning.
	Fighting.
	Tulsi Gabbard.
	That's right.
	Everywhere that will listen to her talk in her own podcast.
	Fighting and fighting and fighting.
	RFK Jr. Fighting and fighting and fighting from anywhere he can talk about this crap.
	That's right.
	So that's the one I'm worried about a little bit.
	She's going to have to get tough and start making arrests.
	And I understand.
	Well, that's fine.
	These people need to be warned, not go on Fox.
	Oh, we're going to do Trump's agenda.
	We don't want to hear that shit.
	We want like right now.
	She should be hitting the microphones and saying, all right, all these people that are attacking Tesla for no reason.
	And all these groups, we're coming for you and we're coming for you hard.
	This is called domestic terrorism and you are going to be charged as a domestic.
	95 percent of it in its in its tracks.
	Right.
	You.
	But you have to come out and you have to be tough right now.
	That's what I want to see.
	But here's the deal.
	I mean, we should also let them know that, hey, you had Joe Biden who labeled conservatives domestic terrorists.
	And what domestic terrorism looks like from a January Sixers eyes is incredibly horrible.
	Okay?
	They take away your civil rights and your liberties.
	Once you're labeled that, it's the end.
	It's over.
	And you still have people that are behind bars as a result of all of this stuff.
	President Trump has issued a ton of pardons.
	But still, you've got a whole situation here.
	And just show them.
	This is what happens in a domestic terrorism...
	And look at what Joe Biden did.
	It shouldn't be off the table for President Trump and for his DOJ to do the exact same thing when you have people that are disrupting other people's lives.
	I mean, my gosh, the left can do it.
	They didn't even hesitate.
	They were throwing grandmothers into the clink for trespassing.
	They set the standard.
	Go ahead.
	I mean, you've been swatted three times.
	You've been on every single list.
	You even got a nice little invitation.
	Homeland Security's been listening to my phone calls for years.
	Yes, they have.
	Tulsi Gabbard was on a no-fly list.
	Well, she wasn't on no-fly, but they were watching her every single time she flew.
	They were calling her a traitor because she told the truth about viral labs in Ukraine.
	Yep.
	Mitt Romney called her a traitor.
	Yep.
	Yeah, because his kids over there getting a million dollars no-show jobs.
	All these people, they're all full of shit.
	Well, that's the whole thing.
	Here they were trying to turn January Sixers, who were just there to support President Trump, turning them into domestic terrorists.
	That's exactly what Joe Biden's FBI did when they were watching people who were buying flags or guns or anything else that was on the conservative side.
	A Bible, you would be flagged for that.
	I mean, the whole thing was completely rigged.
	That's what he was saying.
	Speaking of rigged, you know, that guy from Canada, he didn't get voted in by 85% of the vote, just so you're listening to the fake news.
	There was no election.
	No, there wasn't.
	They had an election of 100,000 people that are controlled leftists in the country, but they didn't have a...
	They're going to have that election in the fall.
	That's right.
	And they're just trying to do this.
	He's trying to step down and put another liberal in there.
	It's more liberal than him to try to fool everybody and to try to stay in power.
	Look at Romania right now.
	Ukraine, no elections.
	Romania, they arrested the guy that was going to win.
	He was going to win by 50 points.
	They said, oh, this is Russian disinformation.
	We're not going to have an election yet.
	And then they arrested him and then said, well, we're charging him.
	He's crazy.
	He can't run now.
	Well, I mean, here's the thing, too.
	There are also photographs of him with Madam Maxwell and make sure that those came out.
	That's the Canadian guy, not the Romanian guy.
	Oh, that's the Canadian.
	Right.
	That's right.
	And his name, just so everybody knows, you've got this new installed prime minister to...
	To replace Trudeau.
	Installed.
	Installed.
	His name is Mark Carney.
	Same way as McCrone.
	Le Pen was going to win, and they got all the little factions together to join parties with the left wing and the green party and everything to get her out.
	She was going to win.
	That's right.
	And he made a deal with their party so he could keep power.
	To give them what they wanted.
	A backroom deal in France.
	In England.
	I mean, England has elections never hardly anymore, do they?
	They just keep appointing people.
	Well, this was the plan.
	I mean, this was the whole plan all along for America.
	I mean, this is why the left is so upset is because they wanted to be able to do all of these things here as well.
	I mean, look at what they did with Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton.
	He was beating Hillary Clinton and they stole that election.
	So then they said, okay, well, you know what?
	If we can do that with Hillary and we can get away with it, okay, we may have upset our base a little bit.
	You know, the Bernie bros were probably a little unhappy at the time and agitated.
	Hey, if we can get away with it there, then we'll just go ahead and steal another election.
	And that's exactly what they did with Biden and President Trump.
	So they're getting real used to that idea.
	So already on X, our show says broadcast is down.
	Content is not available.
	Oh, no.
	So I'm going to repost.
	Where's that?
	The Rumble.
	Link, that's good.
	Yeah.
	Gosh.
	Well, that's too bad.
	See, because I have us up.
	Isn't that wild?
	But see, I'm on a totally different coast.
	It's down here, so we're not good.
	Yeah, see, I'm good over here.
	We've got some people watching, but on your end of the world, I'm California.
	How many people are watching?
	13.6 thousand.
	Yeah, so it'd normally be 40 or 50 thousand, so.
	Yep.
	That kind of shows right there.
	What's happening on X. That's exactly right.
	Oh, that's a shame.
	Well, you know, this is the thing.
	You have to show them what happens.
	If you're going to be a domestic terrorist, if you're going to do things like this to platforms, then you're going to have to pay the price.
	I mean, that's what Gitmo is for.
	We're making all kinds of rules, room for all these people.
	There's plenty of room for criminals.
	We know where to put them.
	But that's exactly what this is.
	Okay, I just posted that, so it's on the front of my page, where to go.
	Okay, fantastic.
	Yeah, it's just, X is going to be squirrely all day, it looks like.
	Yep, looks like they really did.
	Gosh, you don't realize how addicted you are to it until it goes down for three hours.
	Like, what do I do?
	Oh my, well, you were the first person I thought about.
	I went, oh my gosh, you know, cat, this is his thing.
	So, yeah, what's he doing?
	Yeah, I was going to go.
	I told everybody last weekend I was going to spend this weekend going to eat some sushi and relax.
	I was going to go buy some new rod and reels and some stuff for surf fishing this year and kind of have a me day.
	But man, it stormed from Friday night all the way to this morning.
	And I mean, it didn't stop.
	It was just raining cats and dogs and storming and the wind blowing all weekend.
	It never let up.
	Goodness sakes.
	So there ain't no way I was going to get out in that crab.
	I was kind of stuck at the house just trying them.
	Get the dogs.
	Pedro don't like getting his hairdo, so I have to get a big umbrella and take him out there so he can take a dump every day.
	Now, Monkey, I don't know, Monkey Wiggles are the long-haired dogs, and they love to rain.
	Monkey loves it so much, I don't care how hard it's pouring, she'll just sit in the middle of the field and let it rain on her.
	Weirdest dog.
	Oh my gosh.
	They're all so funny, and they're all so different.
	I mean, mine are not used to rain at all, because Southern California.
	Well, my God, if it rains, you can just put them in your pocket.
	Exactly.
	Well, we have things, but we don't have parks.
	You probably have raincoats for them, don't you?
	I certainly do, and rain boots.
	She's serious, too.
	I'm not kidding.
	No, this is real.
	Do you have little galoshes?
	Well, we have sunglasses of every kind.
	I mean, everything that's out there.
	We have a wardrobe for it.
	We take this stuff very seriously, Kat.
	Y'all don't worry about the stock market going down a lot right now.
	Number one, it's way overpriced anyway.
	Number two, they like certainty.
	And with all these tariffs and all this doge and all, all this is, they're not going to like that.
	But these problems have to be fixed or the country's over.
	Well, they're trying to do this on purpose.
	I mean, this is the plan.
	It's going to turn around, trust me.
	It's going to turn around.
	Oh, it's true.
	Give it about four or five months, and when this ship starts turning around, it's going to be balls to the wall.
	I'm really glad you mentioned eggs because Trump's DOJ is already launching an investigation into soaring egg prices.
	And yes, it is true that Biden was murdering chickens.
	I mean, this is common knowledge.
	You remember all of those fires at all of those chicken plants?
	It wasn't so long ago where you had all of these different places that were being hit with arson.
	And they were going after chickens.
	Well, here we've got an issue, and this is why we've got eggs that are on the rise by more than 40% in 2025. The whole thing is just really happening quickly, and President Trump has been talking about eggs.
	He's been saying, what is going on with this?
	So now you've got all kinds of people that are asking that the DOJ... They have sent letters to the major egg producers demanding they preserve documents related to their pricing discussions with customers and competitors, as well as communications.
	And so they want to track the egg prices.
	They want to make sure that there isn't something happening in the back room at all when it comes to all of this.
	The Biden administration economic disaster, it's already led to the crippling increase in food prices.
	Biden took office in January 2021. The average cost of a dozen eggs was just $1.47.
	Just to show you where we are.
	$1.47.
	Now that same carton costs $4.15.
	That's nearly 200% increase.
	Those are big numbers.
	Big numbers.
	I mean, you've got an average price of eggs that are $6.85.
	I know I'm paying $7, $7 something.
	They're not here.
	Wow.
	Can I say, I bought the good, like, organic brown, Eglin's best eggs today for $3.99.
	That's a nice price.
	Yeah.
	Hmm.
	Mm-hmm.
	We got a lot of chickens down here inside.
	Certainly, too.
	Running around in every yard.
	I mean, I don't even see grass.
	If the door gets too high, you just go over to your neighbor's house and pluck some off the ground.
	Exactly.
	It's crazy.
	If I didn't have all these dogs running around my property, especially with my pole barn, it would make a perfect chicken coop.
	There's a lot of foxes and coyotes around, but I would definitely have egg-laying hens, man.
	No doubt about it.
	Vincent, that's something.
	But, of course, my dogs have them all dead in about five minutes.
	That wouldn't work.
	Nope.
	Uh-uh.
	And, you know, these coyotes, man, they'll come up and kill a lot of dogs.
	But I got pack dogs.
	I mean, they use hound dogs, man, to chase boars and bears and all kinds of things.
	There's not a coyote alive.
	It's a chance just against the twins.
	They eat them alive.
	Wow.
	Well, that makes sense, though.
	I don't play, man.
	I got that hunting in them.
	They're hunting dogs.
	And they're big.
	Yep.
	I mean, a chicken is bigger than mine.
	Yeah, your dog.
	I mean, they would see a chicken and they would go, oh my gosh, oh no, mom, help, please, help.
	That's like seeing the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man on Ghostbusters.
	That's exactly right.
	Oh my gosh.
	So between that, then you had, of course, we had supply chain issues.
	We had the bird flu outbreaks.
	I mean, you've seen places in Maine that has seen the stock price skyrocket by over 50% in last year as the profits surged.
	So this is a situation.
	I'm glad President Trump is working on it because my goodness.
	I mean, look at this.
	Wholesale price of grade A large white shell eggs surged from $0.50 to $1.30 per dozen in 2021 to $6 to $8 per dozen today.
	That's what we're dealing with.
	There's something definitely a little sus about that.
	Now, what's up with this, Kat?
	This is really scary.
	I mean, the fact that we've already had two assassination attempts on the president's life, so far, that we know of.
	You've got U.S. Air Force was forced to scramble F-16s again after two aircrafts violated airspace near Trump's Mar-a-Lago.
	We need to get to the bottom of this investigation and what happened with these assassins because we know it was an inside deal.
	But now...
	I don't know if that's anything.
	They'll have to tell me.
	I mean, there's a lot of, you know, these little aircraft that...
	People on private aircraft that are not necessarily looking to harm.
	They just say, hey, man, let's fly over and check out Mar-Lago.
	It's really scary, though.
	But, you know, they haven't given us any information, so who knows?
	It's scary, and you've got to be dumb to think like that, but there are some dumb people, and a lot of dumb people do have projects.
	Oh my gosh.
	Well, you've got, you know, the U.S. Air Force F-16s once again that had to intercept civilian aircrafts for violating restricted airspace near President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence this weekend.
	This is the second time it's happened in two days.
	It happened on Saturday and then it happened again.
	So everybody's going, well, you know, pretty scary stuff that they can even get that close.
	I mean, that's the first thing that I'm thinking is, okay, how is it even possible that they could even get that way twice in 48 hours?
	I've got some breaking news.
	Oh, go ahead.
	Game for it.
	Here we go.
	So, Tulsi Gabbard, in our official D&I account, just posted per POTUS's directive, I have revoked security clearances and barred access to classified I have revoked security clearances and barred access to classified information for Anthony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, Lisa Monaco, Mark Zayed, Norman Eason,
	Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, and Andrew Wiseman, along with the 51 signers of the Hunter Biden disinformation letter.
	The president's daily brief is no longer being provided to former President Biden.
	Oh, that.
	I love how he added Alan Bragg and Letitia James.
	Well, of course.
	I'm so glad that he did.
	And hopefully that long list continues to accumulate.
	I want him to get rid of the Clintons off there.
	There's no reason for them to have it.
	There's no reason for the Bushes to have it either.
	Just get rid of all those people.
	You know?
	I mean, really, why do they need that information now?
	They're not elected.
	They're not working.
	So, there's another one just in.
	Zelensky apologized to President Trump.
	Envoy Steve Wilkoff says, Zelensky sent a letter to the President.
	He apologized for the whole incident at the White House.
	Well, I mean, okay, so he says one thing, then he turns around, and he does another, and then he comes back, and then he does another.
	I mean, he has been the biggest flip-flop I've ever seen.
	I don't take anything...
	Not another dime to these people.
	They're the most ungrateful people I've ever seen in my life.
	We've given them all the weaponry for the war and $350 billion.
	And they're just, and it's just like, it's never, you know, if you don't give us any more, fuck you.
	That's what they are.
	Exactly.
	They're doing videos.
	Well, I mean, this is really getting to be obnoxious.
	He's wasting everybody's time because he's a flip-flop.
	I mean, one minute he is on board, then he's off, then he comes all the way over here.
	Then we send our people all the way to Ukraine to meet with him.
	And here we go again.
	Nothing has been done.
	But he's hurting now, now that he's not getting anything.
	And so he wants to, of course...
	Snuggle up to President Trump.
	And I think probably President Trump is pretty much sick of it.
	But you've got the Democrats that are trying to capitalize on it.
	You've got Democrat Senator Mark Kelly who visited Ukraine calling President Trump's pressure on Zelensky to help bring an end to Russia's war.
	Sickening.
	He wants peace.
	And you call that sickening?
	That's what I'm saying.
	I have absolutely nothing in common with Democrats anymore.
	I really do not.
	I don't even know what they're doing.
	Nobody can.
	I mean, you're either now a Republican by default, an independent, but if you're with the Democrats still, after they didn't even stand for a 13-year-old little kid with brain cancer, or people who had their daughters slaughtered and raped, if you can't stand for that, and if you're with them, that's who you are.
	I really...
	No respect for y'all.
	Look at all this violence they do when they get out of power.
	It's nothing but violence, violence, torching places, violence, violence, hacks.
	Well, they even did it against the American people.
	I mean, see, that's the whole thing.
	This is what I'm just not understanding.
	So you want to wear masks for the rest of your life?
	You want to have a country that is completely divided the way it is?
	I mean, they're not reaching out.
	The only reason why you're seeing Gavin Newsom and...
	I mean, that's the ticket.
	They planned on winning elections was with illegal aliens.
	And now that President Trump has nailed that one, and he's like, nope, deport, deport, they're self-deporting now.
	Even AOC's aide self-deported, right?
	So you know the message is loud and clear.
	They're worried about ever winning an election again.
	We are in a great spot, probably the best spot we've ever been in.
	We just have to keep going strong.
	So you're going to see all this stuff.
	You're going to see disruptors.
	You're going to see hackers.
	You're going to see all the stuff that we saw in 2016 trying to rev everybody up and divide us.
	Because that's all the Democrats know to do.
	And they don't care about war.
	They don't care about anything.
	They don't care about human life.
	I mean, the fact that he would say help bring in...
	You've got President Trump trying to pressure Zelensky for peace.
	And you've got Democrat Senator Mark Kelly who calls that effort sickening.
	What does that tell you?
	Yeah, I called him a damn traitor today.
	I don't care what he's done in his career.
	That's what he is.
	He's over there in Ukraine right now.
	Not on the border.
	Not trying to help homeless.
	Nothing.
	Over there in Ukraine.
	That's all they ever do, man.
	He's war pigs.
	Go to Ukraine.
	Get some photo ops.
	It's very important that we continue to fund this war.
	For who?
	What have we gotten for $350 billion and half our weaponry gone?
	Zero.
	Nothing.
	We ain't got nothing for it.
	We don't get any benefit from helping you.
	None.
	We just get snotty, snot replies from everybody in Ukraine.
	We don't get nothing.
	It is just something.
	I cannot believe that this is how bad it's gotten for the Democrats.
	And the thing is, like, you can already see it.
	This is going to be his money shot.
	I mean, this is what he's going to, if he decides Mark Kelly runs for office, this is what he wants people to see.
	This is a photo op.
	That's all it is.
	If he cared about people, he would be there, one of the first out there at the border saying, So many people in our country.
	I mean, more people than most wars.
	We've got to put a stop to that.
	Look at the human trafficking, the sex trafficking.
	Look at all of the things that are hurting the American people.
	He would care about those things.
	No, he's spending his time trying to continue on with a war that is killing Ukrainians, wiping out entire generations.
	I mean, you can't find anybody under 40 anymore to fight in this war in Ukraine.
	When we say it's a meat market, like a complete meat grinder where people are just losing their lives, it's true.
	President Trump has tried to tell everybody about how awful it is there.
	Kidnapping people?
	they're not having elections they're just anything to keep the war going These war pigs want the war going.
	Europe wants the war going.
	All the uniparty war pigs, they have to have war.
	There's never a time we've had peace, except for the last time Trump was in, ever since Vietnam.
	They have to be bombing some people, or these people ain't happy.
	We don't think like that anymore.
	I don't want to give money to anybody.
	Not one country.
	Zero.
	So if anybody wants to know, well, would you fund this country?
	I'm saying again, until our streets are paved with gold and our airports are like Dubai's and we have no homeless and our border is shut and our people are living the good life, then we have enough money.
	We pay taxes so we can have a better life around here and help people in this country.
	I do not pay taxes to pay the retirement of somebody in Ukraine.
	I don't do it.
	Well, that's even if it makes it there, because you know it's being picked apart.
	It never does.
	Right.
	I mean, some of these things, okay, they sound really great in theory, but the amount of help they actually see is a completely different number.
	This money is going into the pockets from everybody in between all of that.
	It's not going to the actual cause.
	But you can look at anything and you're seeing it.
	I mean, there is a trend.
	The bullet train that never came?
	Huh.
	Look at that.
	Look at some of these stations for electric cars.
	Okay, so they had all this money, right?
	They needed billions for this.
	Never even built them.
	They said, oh no, we have until 2028. They haven't done a thing with it.
	By the time the contractors and their friends get a hold of this money, it's gone.
	And then they say they need more.
	We're left with nothing.
	They get all of this stuff passed and then we don't see anything for our efforts.
	Nothing.
	And so you've got Europe.
	I mean, they see this as a moneymaker and this is why they don't want peace.
	I mean, they want endless wars so that they can continue to pocket this stuff.
	Europe increases defense spending but still are decades behind the U.S. and unprepared for war with Russia.
	So think about that.
	When we talk about human life and just...
	People in general, these are the people that are leading this charge, and it's scary because they're not going to win.
	They're sending their soldiers, their people, to death.
	Ramping it up to them.
	I mean, you see the figures?
	You see what America has spent on this war already, and nothing happened.
	Ukraine has 2,000 men die a day in that war.
	President Trump's trying to save everybody, and their own leaders lead them to the slaughter and just want some more money.
	Sick.
	Who's going to fight your war the next year, even if we did provide the money?
	You're going to keep kidnapping people off the street?
	That's exactly what they do.
	Who's going to fight it?
	Because you're going to run out of men.
	A lot of the men have fled the country.
	Yep.
	Hundreds of thousands of them.
	Terrified.
	They don't want to die?
	They can't even show up to mourn their loved ones at a gravesite for fear they will be kidnapped and put on the front line.
	Is this what you're for?
	Think about that.
	Really?
	You know the training?
	Because I went through it.
	I was in the army.
	You know the training?
	The months and months of hardcore training?
	You do before they even consider putting you in any kind of combat situation?
	Just unreal.
	These people are kidnapped out of vans, civilians, and given a gun.
	They don't even know if they know how to shoot it.
	Thrown to the front lines of the meat grinder in the last five minutes because they have no training.
	I mean, this is really...
	It is just really awful.
	It's awful to watch what is happening over there and the fact that they would say, oh, we're just going to ramp it up.
	So far, the United States has put in $350 billion in this war.
	Europe has only put $150 billion.
	So now they're like, okay, well, we're going to loosen our belt and we're going to introduce $160 billion joint debt finance credit instrument.
	We're going to go ahead and ramp it up.
	Because they want this thing to continue.
	I mean, not by much, but they're willing to put their people out there, money out there, so it keeps going.
	That's unreal to me.
	Brussels estimates that the rearmament strategy could mobilize up to $850 billion by loosening the EU deficit and debt rules and introducing a new $160 billion joint debt finance credit instrument.
	Anything for war.
	Can you imagine if they were working this hard for their own people to make sure that those that were on the street had food their veterans were taken care of?
	I mean...
	That's what we're focused on here in America, and that's actually what we voted for.
	And we have a president that listened to us.
	And that's why, after all of these attacks, we even support him more.
	Promise is kept.
	Yeah, there's going to be a price to pay in the stock market.
	It's a recession!
	We've been in a recession now for almost three years, so...
	Two quarters of GDP negative growth is a recession.
	It always has been a recession since they've ever defined a recession, since the history of recessions.
	And it happened during the Biden regime.
	Oh, we're not going to go by that now, remember?
	The worst press secretary in history.
	Well, there's other things that you've got to consider, not just that now.
	No.
	And so now they're just going to blame you after a month and a half.
	That's Trump's recession!
	Hey, there's going to be pain.
	There's going to be pain to fix this stuff.
	I'm just telling you.
	Well, here's the other thing.
	We've been lied to.
	Can't keep printing money.
	Well, exactly.
	And that's what happened with Biden.
	We knew we were in a recession.
	We knew that they were covering up for it.
	They just wanted to get him back into office.
	And we also knew that when President Trump came back, as soon as we elected him in, that he was going to be handed the worst situation one could even imagine.
	We talked about it on this show.
	They were doing everything that they could just so they could set it up so it would be that way.
	I mean, that's just what it is.
	I mean, this is something.
	When you look at man's inhumanity to man, I mean, you've got things happening on this border.
	A shocking discovery of CJNG extermination camp.
	Not a single mention from Mexico cartels allied government over it.
	I mean, it was just a chilling discovery.
	They found all of these farewell letters, backpacks, clothing, pairs of shoes, 400 pairs of shoes to be exact.
	I mean, it contained three ovens, charred human remains.
	This is what's going on there.
	Authorities estimate that at least 200 people may have been the victims in this gruesome setting.
	A stark reflection of rampant violence plaguing the country.
	Not one peep.
	Not one mention.
	Nothing apiece.
	No.
	Uh-uh.
	Tweeted it yesterday.
	Not one thing.
	The National Guard.
	I want to thank this person for giving us money.
	He'll say demand a lot.
	He says the word.
	We demand weaponry from this country.
	We insist on more from this.
	The Europeans need to step up and give us more.
	There's never a mention of peace with that guy, man.
	You're going to have nothing of a country and no men left, and all your countrymen are going to be like, we'd rather have peace and be Russian.
	Then this, I mean, what is your endgame here, man?
	They don't have one and they don't care because the endgame is money.
	And without money, they're not interested in it.
	I mean, here's the biggest tell.
	It's the fact that the lamestream media never reports about the war.
	You don't see the videos of people getting kidnapped.
	They don't show nothing.
	Not a word.
	There's no war footage for the first time.
	Go back to the History Channel and go back to the 60s when there was no internet and no iPhones.
	And look how much war footage you can pull up.
	I mean, you can pull up thousands and thousands of hours of war footage from just journalists with cameras from the 60s.
	And now we have all this technology?
	I mean, just go to the Gulf War after 9-11.
	Go to the Gulf War.
	Or go to when they blew up all the...
	The oil rigs, right?
	And they're all smoking.
	And all that footage is just like, there was a journalist on every tank, it seemed like, doing stories.
	And then all of a sudden, this war, it's the biggest war going on for years, and there's no footage.
	The only footage I see is from state-sponsored people who get the footage they want.
	It's just unreal.
	There's nothing.
	There's nothing from journalists over there.
	No, they're not going to show any of this.
	Of course not.
	I mean, it is so gruesome, you can't even believe that it's actually happening.
	You're not going to hear about this from the lamestream.
	You're not going to hear about the fact that Ukraine is actually even taking people that have Down syndrome and throwing them in the front lines of the war.
	Just they're throwing bodies.
	They don't care who it is.
	They honestly do not.
	You bring up the training that's required.
	Oh, they're not getting anything like that.
	No, they're just being sent.
	To the front lines.
	They are just throwing bodies there.
	And they think that America is just going to do the exact same thing and put our men and women in danger over there.
	For what?
	No.
	This is how it is.
	You're either going to figure out how you can come together and get peace, or you get nothing at all.
	Until there's nothing left.
	And there won't be anything left.
	If this is how bad it is now, I can guarantee it's not going to be there.
	Nothing.
	No part of it.
	Can you imagine living your life out as Zelensky, being the guy that did all of this to your own people?
	Being the face of the Ukrainian war and what that represents?
	Oh my gosh.
	He'll be talking to somebody.
	I mean, at the very end game, there is somebody we always talk to.
	He'll be judged by that.
	But my gosh.
	I mean, here you've got the Abbey Gate bomber who murdered 13 Americans, was released from prison after Joe Biden abandoned the air base in Burgram and in the middle of the night.
	Bagram.
	That?
	I mean, he left Americans there in Afghanistan.
	Our weaponry is coming and showing up in the black market.
	$82 billion.
	Right?
	$82 billion.
	It's the wildest thing ever.
	I mean, the equipment...
	They have no respect for your money that you make and you give these people.
	They steal from your paycheck.
	You have no choice or they'll arrest you.
	People with guns will come to your house.
	It's not like you volunteer.
	Steal it from your paycheck.
	And they do whatever the hell they want to with it.
	And none of it's good.
	You've learned over the...
	One thing Doge has uncovered is that every bit of the Washington, D.C., every agency, every bit of it's a money laundering scheme to get all them people in D.C. rich.
	None of it's to help you.
	None of it.
	That's right.
	So they fill a pothole every now and then.
	Our bridges are crumbling.
	They don't do nothing for you.
	Nothing.
	It's all for them.
	Well, and that's why this has got to change, and this is why they're so upset about Doge.
	This is truly why they're upset about it.
	It's because this is being, all of this is being revealed.
	I mean, the fact that we have got cartels that have our guns and our ammo from Afghanistan tells a story in and of itself.
	How in the world?
	Well, because they're selling it.
	Everything that we have been so nice about giving to help fund these wars so that these people can protect themselves, including weapons in Ukraine, are ending up back somehow at our border in the hands of terrorists or cartels.
	I'm sorry.
	No.
	It's all coming out.
	I mean, all of it's coming out.
	You've got the DOJ that's identifying Chinese nationals and companies directly aiding the Mexican drug cartels and supplying fentanyl precursors to Mexico.
	We've been funding our own demise.
	So President Trump is saying, no, we're stopping this.
	No more of this.
	We're going to start focusing on peace and healing.
	Lord.
	It's something.
	Every single minute.
	I mean, it really is.
	Yeah, these globalist pigs aren't going down without a fight.
	This is sick stuff.
	It truly is.
	And they wanted the worst of the worst in our country so that they would just completely wreak havoc on our country.
	This is why we have the criminals that got in through the border and all of these things.
	Well, let's face it.
	Let's not call it a border because there wasn't one.
	When Joe Biden was sitting up there in the Oval Office, it was just a free-for-all.
	And he did not care who came across because it would just add to more instability.
	This was the plan.
	These people are really the worst of the worst.
	And the good news is, is that we're on it, and President's team is, his team is on it.
	Marco Rubio declares USAID, the audit complete, vast majority of foreign aid programs will now be axed.
	It's gotta happen!
	We've been throwing good money after bad, and people have been getting rich, not the right ones.
	After a six-week review, we are officially canceling 83% of the programs at USAID. The 5,200 contracts that are now canceled spent tens of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve and in some cases even harmed the core national interests of the United States.
	Marco Rubio put this whole thing out on X.
	Elon Musk responded to him, tough but necessary.
	Good working with you.
	The important parts of USAID should always have been with the Department of State.
	Yep.
	Explains so much.
	It explains the protest.
	It explains everything.
	I mean, they've been funding all of this in order to win elections.
	These are the same agitators, folks.
	If you want to know, these are people that are either paid or they just love to bitch and moan about everything.
	These are the blue hairs and the purple hairs.
	And, you know, it used to be Occupy Wall Street.
	Then it's Antifa.
	Then it's Black Lives Matter.
	Then it's Save the Wells.
	Then it's the Pussyhat Crowd.
	Now it's the anti- Tesla people.
	It's just, they're the same people.
	The Me Too movement with Kavanaugh.
	If you'll go to one of these and there's a thousand people there, at each one of these, it's the same exact thousand people.
	It's not different.
	It's the same people, pro-agitators.
	They are openly admitting that they are being paid to be there and do that stuff.
	It isn't a secret anymore.
	It doesn't work anymore either.
	It's not working.
	They were beat soundly because people were tired of the same old fake news propagandists, just the fakeness of it, just the way they are.
	And what are they doing now?
	They're doing the same exact things that they've always done.
	It's amazing.
	No, it's really...
	It just doesn't work.
	Oh, let's do more of the same.
	We have no power.
	We're laughingstocks.
	You literally have a 20% approval rating Democrats in Congress now.
	20%.
	And let's just keep doing more of the same.
	Let's send out Crockett to fake talk ghetto, even though she's a little rich trust fund baby.
	Let's get her to fake talk ghetto.
	Let's hold up some paddles.
	Let's say faults on them.
	Let's boo and cheer a 13-year-old with brain cancer.
	Let's get out on the microphone and scream and yell and sing lame-ass songs by lame-ass people to lame-ass people.
	And let's amplify everything.
	And let's go to violence.
	Let's start firebombing stuff.
	You're just doubling down on your stupidity and nobody's buying it.
	Nope.
	No one is.
	And especially when you've got all of this out there.
	There will be protests in Washington for three days in a row starting today.
	And protesters are being paid $40 per hour.
	Ask yourself who is willing to spend over $32,000 in a few days and who is benefiting from these left-wing protests.
	At iMemo put together this post.
	Here you've got the compensation.
	You've got the map where you need to be in order to partake.
	And here it all is.
	Only serious inquiries.
	I will provide more details when we talk.
	I will only respond to text messages.
	Thank you.
	This is it.
	The whole letter.
	40 hours.
	People needed for peaceful protest in Washington, D.C. 40 bucks an hour.
	Monday.
	The 10th.
	Tuesday, the 11th.
	Wednesday, the 12th.
	Hunter's going to be out there protesting for 40 an hour for some crack rocks.
	He's going to need to do it.
	He's going to be like, I need some crack rocks!
	It's bad!
	It's going to have to do it.
	I mean, you've even got people here.
	Okay, the Tesla situation, that's another group that's doing it as well, but really leftist, so it's basically the same.
	Doge Designer says, breaking Doge Protester outside the Tesla store admits he was paid to protest.
	I get paid to be out here, of course.
	I mean, it's almost kind of a joke when you see one of these characters holding a sign.
	He looks out of place.
	He's not really that passionate about it, right?
	He's there.
	He's like the guy from Liberty Tax that spins a sign, right?
	Get your taxes done here.
	It's like a sign spinner.
	It's the same gig.
	Watch.
	Yeah, I get paid to be out here.
	You get paid to be out here?
	Yeah.
	Amazing.
	So some pack.
	You really are getting paid for this?
	Yeah.
	Absolutely.
	Oh, definitely.
	100% I'm getting paid for this.
	Yeah.
	I mean, come on.
	He's a science spinner.
	That's what he is.
	Yeah, man.
	At least he's honest.
	Well, it's embarrassing at this point.
	I need a hit like Madonna needs a hit.
	I gotta do that.
	I mean, it's true.
	I mean, at least the Liberty Tax guys, they sit there and they dance and they put on a show.
	This guy's just standing there going, okay, look, I'm getting paid more than that clown.
	I don't have to do the whole thing with the whole Liberty dressing up as a statue of Liberty and dancing around trying to get people's attention at a stoplight.
	No, I look like I'm part of this whole operation and I'm getting paid more.
	Like Badger from Breaking Bad.
	You won't understand that, but some people will.
	I don't.
	He was out there.
	He was a sign spinner trying to make money.
	It was hilarious.
	He was spinning signs.
	Get your dollar bill, Joe!
	At a bank.
	We need memers on this stuff.
	You need to start making fun of these people.
	Seriously, there's enough material out there to keep you busy forever.
	Because it's just craziness.
	I mean, it really is.
	But I'm just glad to see that you've got Marco Rubio that's on it.
	Of course, they tried to act like there was this big beef between Elon Musk and Marco Rubio that turned out to be false.
	They're doing everything to try to divide and conquer.
	It's not working.
	It's really not.
	I mean, we know who these people are.
	They have no credibility.
	it's the same exact plan as they had in 2016.
	I mean, there's no originality to it.
	They're not coming up with new things.
	They're doing exactly what they did before and they think that the American people are going to buy it.
	I mean, try to have a conversation with people and then start asking themselves.
	So you're really for this?
	I mean, you really want endless wars?
	You really want people, your money to go for people to be slaughtered?
	I mean, that's...
	What do you see?
	You don't think that we should have any peace talks?
	At all?
	All these people in Congress...
	And America that wants to bomb people and all these people around the globalists that always want to take over everything and regime change, they should be required to send all their sons and daughters over there to fight first, and then they can have a say-so.
	But if they vote for this shit, just like the Democrats who all voted for open borders, they should be required to have at least 20 illegals, man, and you don't get to pick them.
	They just random live in their home for the rest of their lives.
	True.
	If you're going to do these dangerous policies that are just killing people on the streets, literally sometimes, and then just making their neighborhoods, you should have to live under the circumstances that you voted on, instead of from your ivory tower.
	And Lord, is there any politician, a congressman, especially Democrats, that are not worth a minimum of $10 million on a $174,000 a year salary?
	All of them!
	All of them!
	That's why you attack this, border closed, well, it kind of sucks, but what are they complaining about worse than anything?
	Elon Musk, USAID. Well, and that's another reason why they tried to shut down everybody's...
	That's their money laundering scheme.
	Yep, and that's why...
	They don't care about...
	I mean, they're just bringing in people for votes, and that didn't work, so who cares?
	That's right.
	Well, I mean, that's the whole thing, though.
	I mean, this is another reason why they attack our free speech, because we're the ones talking truth, and they cannot stand the truth.

	And that is one thing that we had with Rumble when we didn't have anything at all.
	We were getting kicked off of every single platform.
	In fact, I will let you know, I don't know how long we're going to be on Megaphone and Spotify because it looks like the left have been reporting our show because we got all kinds of some of our shows taken down.
	And they have been complaining about us.
	But just so you know, Rumble has never done that to us before.
	Rumble takes care of us.
	Spotify has never done anything to us.
	Exactly.
	So that's why we're down today for all I give a crap.
	We just really it's just something always but just so everybody knows those that watch our podcast after the show that could be on the horizon.
	We really rather you watch it if you want to help us out on Rumble and then if not that then on X. That's right.
	The two platforms that stand for free speech.
	And always have.
	But we've been through it.
	We're here to actually tell the story about how all of that happened.
	It's wild.
	But when you start talking about, you know, the gravy trains and you've got people like Elon Musk that is talking out about it.
	I mean, is the Democrats' ActBlue gravy train finally coming to an end?
	I mean, ActBlue is under serious spotlight right now.
	Because there have been so many people that have been digging into all of these contributions, and they're starting to figure out that a whole bunch of foreigners have been donating to this fund, and it's illegal.
	Everything in USAID was the same way.
	It's just been one big money laundering scheme to themselves.
	I mean, Democrat Funding Powerhouse Act Blue faces internal chaos.
	You had seven senior officials that just resigned?
	Hello!
	Seven!
	There's only one lawyer left in that office.
	So all kinds of people that are distancing themselves.
	Now, you remember when Project Veritas, they were really good about going door-to-door.
	Well, it wasn't Project Veritas.
	It was OMG, I believe, at that time.
	He had moved over to OMG. And all of a sudden, he was just knocking on people's doors saying, hey, did you know that you donated $100,000 last year?
	And they're like, no.
	And he said, here's your name.
	Yeah, here's your name.
	Did you know you've made 2,500 donations to Act Blue for $364,000 last year?
	That's the way it was.
	It wasn't just one.
	It was just thousands of donations in your name.
	Criminals!
	And like I say, all these people that they got for federal tax evasion crimes and Bernie Madoff and Ponzi schemes, these people should be out of jail to make room for everybody in D.C. who's been stealing trillions for 30 years.
	Yep.
	Because that's child's play.
	Oh my gosh, it truly is.
	I mean, the whole thing has just gotten to be crazy.
	I mean, I just sit here every single day and go, okay, what else is going to happen?
	But they're nervous and they're getting edgy about the whole thing.
	And that's why I am so glad that we are going to have Paul Stone join us.
	And he is going to talk about what's going on with the market and everything else.
	And I believe that he is here.
	Hello, Mr. Stone.
	Hello, how are you?
	Good.
	How goes it in your neck of the woods?
	It goes well.
	We're in the solutions business and there's lots of reasons for the solution we offer.
	My goodness.
	So you're back from New York.
	Yes, back from New York.
	I'm in our Los Angeles office.
	Los Angeles location here.
	We're bi-coastal.
	Not bipolar, but bi-coastal.
	That's good.
	That's really good.
	I mean, unless you live in Ukraine, and then it really doesn't matter because they're just sending whoever they want to to the front lines.
	So none of those excuses would ever work.
	My goodness, what's happening there is really something.
	And I really want to get your take about the markets.
	This whole thing has been so nuts.
	What's going on with it?
	Well, it's...
	So if you just think like any move, anything, any vehicle, any machinery, anything that's underway, and it's all messed up inside, the guts, the engines running on fumes, you need to do repairs.
	You're going to have to take it offline.
	You know, an aircraft carrier that needs repairs can't be out on the open ocean.
	It has to come into port and get upgraded and do some maintenance work to it.
	The U.S. economy, I've been saying forever, is just running off printed dollars.
	It's running off of a falsehood.
	It literally can't exist without the printed money.
	Because the printed money is being spent here, even if it's being wasted, even if you'd say the government doesn't need to spend those hundreds of billions.
	Aside from U.S. aid, which is, you know.
	A couple billion bucks a year.
	The money is being spent in our economy, within our walls.
	It's all happening here.
	And without our economy receiving that money, it will struggle.
	It will struggle mightily, depending on how much you crimp the flow.
	And if you're also going to say, we're going to retrofit the economic engine with some other parts, you're going to...
	Not get what you used to get.
	But if nothing changes, nothing will change.
	And so Trump is showing crazy courage because, yeah, he doesn't have to get reelected, so he doesn't need the people to love him.
	He can take this thing offline, take away the punch bowl, the stock market gets upset, your 401k and IRA savings gets upset.
	But to try to shove some brick and mortar behind these...
	Airborne numbers, you're going to have to break eggs to make an omelet.
	It's really.
	So before this thing can come back online for maybe a 50-year or 100-year run, with a ton more fundamentals in it, like making stuff in America, is a fundamental.
	You know, when I make dinner, there's a benefit I get than if I just ordered it on Uber Eats and served it.
	And so when you look at the way an economy kind of has to be to be healthy, he's retrofitting the economy with some old parts that our stupid government before him just threw to China, for example.
	So, yeah, the market's coming down.
	It is, really.
	I've been telling everybody there's going to be some pain in this because he's trying to do things right, and the stock market doesn't like uncertainty.
	And it's going to take a while to turn this ship around, but if you don't do this at some point, we're going to lose everything.
	It's got to stop.
	You're exactly right, and I'm not glad this is happening, but I'm glad some things are happening that show and illustrate what I've been talking about.
	I'm not a financial advisor or a trained economist, but I understand one thing, and everyone seems to agree, that the printed money ends up in 401ks and IRAs, and it ends up in real estate.
	Not all of it, but it's flowing through paychecks, which flow into the investment or the real estate world.
	If they didn't print any money since 2008, what do you think the economy would look like today?
	Would the market be way, way up and everyone's kind of happy or most people are kind of happy with how things are going?
	Or do you think we'd still be shooting each other in the streets for food?
	But I can tell you right now, from what I've read, the government had to print, if we're a $20 trillion economy in 2019, and the economy gets shut down to stop the spread of the flu, and the government has to print $9 trillion because the economy only produced $11 trillion of the $20 it got last year, if the government didn't print the $9 trillion, How many jobs are there in 2020, 2021, 2022?
	How many companies literally died permanently?
	Do you get that?
	Without the printed money, you're shooting each other in the streets for food.
	There aren't any cops because they're wondering what their family's going to eat.
	There's no National Guard.
	Same situation.
	I don't even know who's going to Washington to vote and argue on stuff.
	Because they're wondering what they're going to eat.
	The supply chain would have stopped.
	Literally stopped.
	The diesel truck drivers stopped.
	If no one's going to pay for the groceries, why am I getting in the rig to deliver them?
	Well, and they have been lying about the true numbers this entire time, especially for elections and during elections, and they hold things over and they wait.
	And so we expected this pain.
	We truly did.
	We knew it was going to happen.
	President Trump has also been warning people about it.
	I mean, he's not making it a secret.
	He says it's going to be real tight here.
	Get ready.
	It's going to be a little rough.
	He's not yelling fire in the theater, but he's kind of, you know.
	There's some lines he's drawn that you have to read between.
	Well, and we need money.
	And that's why it's great that we've got Doge out there exposing the rampant waste and other political events.
	I mean, how do you think this hampers short-term economic responses to China's advances, like advancing budget, energy, and tech bills?
	Long-term, this could be internal focus on Doge locking us into a cycle of delay and inefficiency that permanently weakens our economic stance against China's focus strategy.
	Do you think that?
	That's a possibility?
	Or will this get resolved rapidly?
	Oh, no.
	So here's the distinction, right?
	Just in 1990, how long ago was that?
	30-some years, right?
	Yesterday.
	Yeah, yesterday, right?
	I was 20. So I guess it was 30, almost 35 years ago.
	82%, and I've said this before, but 82% of 100 transactions, 82 transactions out of 100, of all the transactions that happen in America, 82% of those bought something made in America.
	And today, only 11%.
	That...
	Is the heartbeat of any country.
	It's why the Dominican Republic can't have an economy because all they can export is cold water lobster, not Maine lobster and avocados.
	You know, so if your country doesn't have the luxury of exporting and making stuff, then it's a rough place to live.
	America is a hostile, rough place to live.
	It is.
	Right.
	And when you look at how the tech world has had the ultimate cover thrown over it.
	Come on.
	Automation creates some new jobs, but it replaces tons more jobs than it creates.
	Please, can't that make sense?
	Can we really?
	Like, really?
	Because if you look at true unemployment, it's 27.6%.
	I'm not making this up.
	This is from an 80-year-old economist who's been doing this his entire life.
	His name's John Williams.
	If you count unemployment the old-fashioned way, not the archaic, obsolete way, Like, one plus one will always equal two.
	That's never going to be obsolete.
	Call it old-fashioned.
	Wish it could equal three.
	But it's just going to equal two.
	So the old-fashioned way, counting unemployment, since Windows 95, unemployment's 27%.
	That's why the money printing, that's why the government really doesn't have, it aggravates the reason why the government doesn't have the tax revenue, because it has 27% less workers in the economy.
	So if you said, At however many workers we have.
	And that would generate $5 trillion in taxes.
	What's 25% of $5 trillion?
	Was that one and a quarter, right?
	So you'd be at $6 and a quarter trillion in tax revenue.
	That's pretty close to $7.
	That's what Biden's last budget was.
	That's what Trump's budget's going to be.
	Because he's asking for the debt ceiling to raise by $4 trillion over the next two years, which means he already understands.
	The deficit will stay the same, which is $2 trillion, meaning the Treasury gets $7 trillion in bills put in front of it, and it has $5 trillion to pay it.
	So when you look at how everything has been aggravated, there's so much behind the scenes, but it's simple to get once you actually pay attention to it.
	Technology automates processes which removes humans from jobs.
	AI will remove the rest of them.
	I'm not trying to bang alarm bells.
	I'm just speaking plainly.
	And Elon Musk even said recently, AI can do most of the government jobs for them.
	Great.
	So now you've unemployed millions and millions of workers, and they have to go find jobs where in the economy?
	When you're already dealing with a workforce that is 27% permanently unemployed due to automation.
	And, you know, my buddy on another show said earlier, he said, well, this will be like a revolution, like when we found the combustion engine.
	The combustion engine retired horses.
	We would now be the horses.
	It's really going to be interesting to see what happens.
	AI can build robots, and it can write computer code, and make your websites, and it can literally deliver goods, and it can do all the assembly line work, and do all the customer service.
	It can make dope means of J.D. Vance, too.
	That, too.
	Yes, it can.
	I think people really should brace for...
	Difficulty.
	And I don't think anyone can articulate how difficult it can come.
	I mean, it can become.
	The AI technology, this is a real interesting market, and it's been very strategic thus far.
	You've got a whole bunch of players.
	I mean, the AI technology, it's transformational, as you just described.
	It's a megaforce.
	It will shape the market dominance in multiple spaces in coming years, and we're already seeing it, trade shows everywhere.
	It's in everything we are doing right now.
	Well, while China lacks the advanced semiconductor technology needed for a competitive edge, The U.S. possesses this capability through its silicon, and it's primarily fabricated by TSMC in Taiwan.
	So how likely do you think it is that China will face a growing AI technology gap and desperate to secure advanced semiconductors, that they might invade Taiwan or control TSMC, and what short- and long-term economic consequences could this unleash for us?
	Personally, if you deleted the internet and all computing power, you would have to employ a ton more people to get your stuff done.
	So you would, perhaps, if automation has unemployed 27% of the workforce, or, alright, let's say half of that.
	Let's say unemployment's just 12%, and 15% of it's from automation.
	So do those people go back to work?
	Because now companies can't use computer power to replace their job.
	So if we don't have the chips, that would mean bad stuff for AI. But it might mean great stuff for the worker.
	Because now they're invited back to the companies to do the jobs computers can't do.
	Because they can't do them anymore.
	This is what I'm trying to point out.
	As this technological advancement continues to mature, it replaces jobs permanently.
	And you guys got to realize that AI doesn't have to eat.
	It eats electricity.
	We eat meals that cost money to grow.
	If you don't pay the farmers, then the world starves.
	Or you're eating whatever you can grow in your backyard.
	A lot of people have moved to cities over the last 50 years.
	So there's 255 million people living in cities in this country.
	50 years ago, there were 255 million people living in the countryside.
	It's rough.
	I don't think China lets Taiwan.
	I mean, you say China doesn't have access to chips.
	They own Taiwan in a way.
	So if they want to seize upon that, 90% or so of the chips are made in Taiwan currently, and it takes years to put a factory together.
	And you have highly specialized, trained people that work inside the core of a chip-making facility.
	It's a very specialized environment.
	It's just absolutely sterile.
	I mean, there's parts to a chip making facility that I've studied that are just extremely tough to just slap together.
	Couldn't slap it together.
	But you're right.
	And what we're really talking about here is aren't wars fought over resources and access to resources?
	You really think China is going to let all of its dreams of communist global domination slip away because Taiwan set up its factories in America?
	I don't think so.
	That's what's so interesting.
	I mean, if you were to pose a hypothetical of China retaliating with AI-driven drone warfare, I mean, how might the U.S. economy cope short-term with a sudden spike in defense spending and trade disruptions?
	In the long term, do you think this could force an orientation of economic priorities away from consumer goods and more towards...
	Military tech.
	And what would that mean for growth?
	You've got a couple of different scenarios here and how they could actually play out.
	And that's why the markets are reacting the way they are because they're unsure.
	They don't know where this is headed.
	There just seems to be a lot of air in those numbers.
	If payroll is only up 80% since 2010, where's all the money coming from for the market to be so...
	Hi, and I'm not giving any financial advice or criticism, really.
	I'm just asking questions.
	But you also might want to read about leverage.
	You know, my guy at a bank that I'm with told me that they lever the money up.
	So if you look at fractional lending in the real estate world, you guys have, you know, a million bucks sitting with your bank.
	They can loan 10 million.
	Where's that 9 million come from?
	Thin air.
	Oh, wait.
	So there's.
	10 times the amount of money in reality that's chasing after real estate opportunities?
	Doesn't that aggravate the price of real estate and push it out of reach for most people?
	Uh-huh.
	But it makes the people who get to play the real estate game do well.
	Wait, you're saying the same thing happens in the market?
	That's what I've read.
	10, 20, 30x?
	So it's not just cash, extra profits that finds its way into markets.
	Not from what I've read.
	So if you cut the flow of that off, can't that be painful?
	If we don't, if we stay wanting to drink out of this Kool-Aid bowl, the dollar continues to get printed aggressively more and more faster and faster.
	So you lose that resource.
	So you're making a great distinction.
	Well, if we don't have chips, we can't, you know, our world will suffer.
	The military world will suffer.
	A lot of the world will suffer, right?
	No new computers.
	Yeah.
	And so would that have a negative, positive impact?
	Negative.
	Would there be a war, perhaps, over China stopping to seize the Taiwan resources, the chip-making resources?
	Probably.
	Hell yeah.
	And then there's the resource of the dollar that actually supports our ability to send the military to fight China.
	They're just printing the money.
	And that resource is 97% gone.
	So now you can kind of really start to see the real-world scenarios I've been just humbly painting a picture about with stick figures over many, many years.
	And certainly since I've been coming on your show, I'm saying $3.97, 97% of that resource has been eviscerated.
	So if you were down to getting 3% of the chip supply you needed to get for your economy to be whatever it was tomorrow, yesterday, from yesterday, and you got 3% of that chip capacity.
	And what if that decoupled our ability to pursue AI to a mature position in China?
	Was the only one with ultra-mature AI capabilities and supercomputing.
	You've got to realize, their idea, I've got to believe, for enslaving the rest of the developed world is through their AI capabilities and quantum supercomputer power.
	Microsoft just came out with a hell of a chip that seems to answer a riddle of how the supercomputers, quantum computers, generate errors.
	In their calculation process, and now they won't.
	So just think of a quantum computer like if you and I said time and distance, we can have an axis and measure things on the axis of time and distance.
	So two-dimensional.
	Imagine one-dimensional.
	Imagine three-dimensional calculations.
	Goodness sakes.
	You get into some crazy, powerful stuff.
	The ability to churn through petabytes of data in a second.
	It's just mind-blowing.
	That's what I'm worried about.
	I'm worried about how these resources are generally what wars are fought over.
	And I've been mentioning since the good, good, great victory of Donald Trump came to Washington that you got to watch out for as he makes course corrections.
	What are the retaliations against that?
	Because you look at any sport, right?
	You end up with two competitors at the very end of the season fighting like hell for the trophy.
	And it's China and America.
	This is the new Soviet Union.
	This is what they made all the 80s movies about.
	This is wild.
	I mean, and when you start talking about access to rare...
	And how critical it is for U.S. manufacturing success.
	President Trump wants to bring all the jobs here.
	And now you've got in retaliation China that has banned exports of gallium, geranium, and antimony to the U.S. It's to counter all of this.
	And the U.S. is pursuing rare earth deals with alternate suppliers like Ukraine.
	So now people are starting to understand why we're going after the minerals deal as a result of it.
	And the more you read, the deeper that foxhole gets.
	And potentially Russia and Iran while tapping on its own untapped domestic deposits.
	I mean, this is a really, this is a huge shift in the environment that a lot of people are used to dealing in.
	And we're all having to get a whole education on this whole manufacturing success and what you're going to need in order to be successful.
	How do you assess the short and long term economic impact on China from losing nearly half a billion dollars in some of these minerals, especially considering that 85 percent dominance in rare earth processing, that it's got a broader leverage over especially considering that 85 percent dominance in rare earth processing, that it's got So from what I've studied,
	China has 50-60% of rare earth mineral production, but they have 90% of the refinement capabilities.
	Right.
	That's why they've been the manufacturing.
	You still have to send your stuff to China for refinement.
	You know, a smartphone has half of the elements of the periodic table within it.
	Half.
	It's insane.
	It costs like a million dollars for the paint to paint a stealth bomber.
	Because it's full of these crazy metals that absorb radar, if you can think about it.
	So not only does the shape of the plane's exterior deflect radar signature, the paint absorbs it, like drinks it in.
	So, you know, we already have a lot of planes and aircraft carriers and stuff, but you're talking about an economy that must continue to consume more money tomorrow from thin air than it did today, or it can't grow, and as soon as growth stalls...
	Fear sets in.
	Panic sets in.
	And typically that's when things fall apart, financially speaking, because the strength is a perception that the money printing won't stop tomorrow.
	So I'm OK where my money is now.
	But if the money printing slows or stops tomorrow or a ton of it is redirected or it can't be developed, the money printing literally can't happen in ways that it has been happening.
	Then you'll be wondering why you waited to look at precious metals.
	That's my question.
	How do we hedge against inflation?
	Move your money out of harm's way.
	Just like if the meteor was going to hit the left side of the street and it would leave the right side of the street alone, then you would just walk your money across the street until the meteor hits and the coast is clear and the rebuilding process is done and then you'd move your money back.
	That's all it is.
	That's all gold and silver could be.
	Again, not financial advice, but in my opinion, that's what it is.
	It's a location for money.
	It takes a new shape, a whole new paradigm, a new set of fundamentals.
	It can't be made in a lab.
	It's really hard to find.
	The government doesn't seem to care.
	No government seems to care about it, although central banks scour it up as soon as it comes out of the ground.
	If central banks...
	Who seem to make all their money in the man-made financial world, if they're hoarding gold, why would you ignore that?
	Why would they need a plan B? Aren't they the plan?
	So you got to look at what are you waiting for?
	Are you waiting for the collapse?
	I know we think Trump's coming to save the day, saving the day he might.
	But 60 miles lost down the wrong road, how many miles back?
	Just to get back on the right course.
	60 miles.
	You can't have something for nothing.
	And he could chopper in with those big choppers with two blades, a bunch of bulldozers and graders and make a new path over and cut through the woods to the path we were supposed to be on.
	How much time does that take?
	60 miles the wrong way.
	I'll use this number.
	54 years since Nixon, the wrong way, 54 years back.
	This really- I'm not saying it'll take 54 years, but I'm just saying it's pain.
	You aren't progressing.
	You aren't moving forward when you have to retrace your steps.
	Whereas- Us guys certainly know when we're finally, finally, finally caught that we didn't need directions and your suggestions weren't very helpful and we got it figured out and we understand how to, and we have to make that painful U-turn.
	Don't talk to us for a while.
	It must have happened recently.
	We're in our feelings.
	So that's what it's like.
	It is.
	It's so frustrating.
	Go down the wrong road, it's very damn frustrating to admit it, and then you make that U-turn, and it's a long ways back just to get on the part of the road where you were supposed to be headed.
	Well, and here's the thing.
	When it comes to gold, it has been around for a long time, and especially in situations like this, a lot of people feel a lot more comfortable putting their, you know, Putting their investment in that, and you're not an investment advice counselor,
	but that is just something that people have done over the years, and they've always been very successful in it, and they don't feel like that is something that, you know, is going to hurt them when it comes time, like what we're dealing with now, with inflation and something that's, you know.
	Unpredictable, like these stock markets.
	I mean, you see what's happening with Bitcoin.
	Oh my gosh.
	I mean, from one day to the next, you've got these huge drops.
	You talk about energy.
	You talk about all the things that it needs in order to continue on.
	Whereas with gold, you don't have those issues at all.
	So it's a great way to protect your money.
	And great results.
	You're right.
	Here's one more idea.
	If you said, all right, so since 2008, we've recovered.
	Is that a general, is that something okay to say?
	You think we've recovered?
	But if debt was $10 trillion in 2010, and it's $36 trillion today, can you understand that $26 trillion out of thin air has been created since 2010?
	$26 trillion.
	Is it okay then to think that the recovery you think you're experiencing was printed?
	Doesn't sound like a conspiracy.
	Can you understand what I mean when I say there's no brick and mortar behind those numbers?
	That's right.
	And then so any little disruption, that's fragility.
	And that's eggshell.
	That's as thick as an eggshell.
	That's fragility.
	And now there's a fly in the ointment?
	You try to fix that?
	Brace.
	We're going to have some really interesting times ahead and that's why...
	When we talk about gold and we talk about Colonial Metals Group, I've had a wonderful experience dealing with people there.
	And I know that a lot of people, when it comes to their IRA and their 401 savings, they're shielding their savings with gold.
	Now, there are a couple of different things that you all are offering right now, and that is that you can get a home safe.
	So those that want to have it in their possession, And you're also offering $7,500 in free silver.
	That's a big deal.
	Yeah, up to, right.
	Yeah, you know, people like incentives.
	So we're trying to put every good foot forward that we can to help you understand.
	We know that, you know, this is challenging for most people.
	They just haven't done it before.
	It's weird.
	They think their finances are in an electronic device.
	How do you get physical gold and silver in an electronic device, right?
	How do you get this in a computer?
	No, this goes in a safe at home or it goes in your depository account.
	And you say, well, explain to me the depository.
	Well, look at where your money's now.
	It's in a database, right?
	Where's your money?
	You think it's around the corner from you?
	Where is it?
	Can you point it out?
	Can you really go grab it out of the computer?
	Don't you need permission to get it in physical form?
	So if you transfer funds into physical gold and silver and that's in a depository and some of your wealth and savings is in a safe at home, It exists.
	It now exists.
	Yes, it has to be safeguarded.
	So if you're ever going to have gold and silver at the home, have two safes.
	Have a small one, what I call the throwaway safe, and the one where your real loot is stored and secured under a pile of clothes bolted down in the closet floor.
	And if someone comes by and they want that, they heard you had that loot, that gold and silver, you have that throwaway safe.
	And you just say, well, you know, I'm not going to tell you.
	And they go, we'll shoot you in the knee.
	All right, fine.
	It's over there.
	And they run out the door with a couple thousand bucks of gold and silver in the throwaway safe.
	But at the depository, you literally have armed guards and security measures that would happily shoot anyone coming through the doors they didn't invite in.
	And all the high-tech security measures, they're insured by Lloyd's of London, which has survived everything Mother Nature and mankind has thrown against it for over 150 years.
	So when you just look at the ingredients in the arrangement, database money, printed money versus real metal, Secured by real people.
	No one's standing between you and your money anymore.
	They're just standing over it.
	That's the proposal.
	Consider what form you want your money to take before things perhaps get worse.
	And you get to come out of it the same way you got in.
	You're like, hey, the coast is clear.
	I want out of gold and silver.
	Great.
	We liquidated it.
	Where do you want the money sent?
	This is a really great option for everybody to explore.
	And I really do implore people to call today and find out what they can.
	I mean, any of your questions, I've asked some pretty wild questions too.
	I've thrown them off with some of my...
	You have to ask them all.
	You're right.
	You've got to ask them all.
	I mean, I've learned a lot.
	Because any other question is going to keep you stuck.
	Exactly.
	And I've learned a lot by talking to your people over there.
	They're just awesome.
	They truly are.
	And I've had, like I said, some pretty wild questions and then nothing was off the table.
	But definitely give them a call.
	Everyone needs to just give them a shot.
	Go over to freegoldguide.com slash LB or you can call 1-800-889-8087.
	You'll get a free Gold Guide kit and they will talk about how you can bulletproof your wealth with Gold, tax-free.
	And you can see if you can qualify for free home safe and $7,500 up to in free silver.
	Right.
	You know, here's a concept, just a weird concept, just to help try to give more illuminationists, and I don't want to keep you past how long you've set aside for me.
	I'm humbly grateful for that.
	Imagine if every retiree could call Donald Trump and say, hey, go ahead and pull the plug.
	All of our money is safe.
	It's protected.
	We're out.
	What if we moved it to safety, everyone, all 70 million retirees that had a retirement savings?
	Hey, go ahead.
	We're good.
	Do what you need to do.
	Aren't we the reason there's a country?
	Aren't we the reason there's a government?
	Aren't we the reason that America needs to be made great again?
	I don't think it needs to be made great again for the corporations.
	I didn't think he said, make corporations great again.
	Aren't we what America is, the individuals, the 350 million of us living here?
	Isn't that what he's making America great again for?
	So if there's some financial setbacks, difficulty, and maybe things aren't as lush going forward.
	If you're cutting off the printed money and that's what's made things lush and that isn't going to return because preserving the dollar is something Trump's all about instead of having us slip onto a federally issued crypto dollar to replace the dollar someday.
	If he's against that and preserving the dollar is what he's for, 3% remains in the dollar to be protected.
	And we don't want to print that anymore.
	What did all that printed money support?
	So if we're out of the printed money world before the damage comes, that's what gold and silver hopefully offers.
	That's what it historically has offered.
	I think that's a great note.
	Because it's something that everybody really needs to take into consideration.
	And again, I mean, you want to make sure that you leverage in this environment.
	It's pretty wild.
	And you need to be able to protect your money.
	And you certainly don't want to get into a situation where you're seeing all these highs and lows.
	I'm not seeing that with Colonial Metals groups.
	So it's a great group.
	Definitely give them a shout today.
	Because honestly, with unexpected times, and we've been warned.
	By President Trump himself, we're going to have to buckle down a little bit here.
	It's going to be a little rougher than a lot of people anticipated.
	All right.
	Well, thank you for joining us.
	We always enjoy having you on the show.
	Do you enjoy that steak?
	Thanks for coming.
	Oh, we love having you here.
	But did you enjoy that steak that you had over there?

	I know you were looking forward to that.
	There's got to be rewards to everything we do.
	I'm telling you something.
	Life is way too short.
	Yeah.
	And, you know, eating is a general human celebration of time together with others and breaking bread and, you know, chefing up something you don't have all the time is special.
	Yeah.
	Well, that's what Cat's been doing.
	He has this thing for sushi, and whenever he goes out, he has this amazing ability to make everybody hungry with his pictures of what he's having that day for lunch.
	I love sushi, man.
	I love sushi.
	Imagine that, a cat liking fish.
	Raw fish.
	Raw fish.
