Speaker 3 After vacationing in Mar-a-Lago this weekend once again, Donald Trump went back to Washington, D.C.
Speaker 8 and said, you know what, I'm going to just further tank the markets in the United States of America.
Speaker 2 The Dow was down 1.48%, the SP 500 down 1.76%, NASDAQ down 2.64%,
Speaker 18 and it started crashing significantly when Donald Trump held a press conference talking about how he was going to impose the tariffs on Canada and Mexico and other places.
Speaker 2 He was a total mess during this press conference.
Speaker 21 And let me just show you a clip right here.
Speaker 22 Watch what's happening at the stock ticker as he's talking here.
Speaker 18 Play this clip.
Speaker 23 The United States has been taken advantage of for 40 years.
Speaker 23
The United States has been a laughing stock for years and years. That's why this gentleman is built in Taiwan instead of building here.
It would have been better if he built here.
Speaker 23 If we had a president that knew what they were doing, and we had a lot of them very bad on trade.
Speaker 23 For those listening listening on audio it literally just started going down at a rapid pace at one point it was down close to a thousand and ended up finishing really really uh poorly here donald trump uh talks about the tariffs on canada 25 25 on mexico here play this clip but so we're going april 2nd but very importantly tomorrow tariffs 25 percent on canada and 25 percent on mexico and that'll start so they're going to have to have a tariff so what they have to to do is build their car plants, frankly, and other things in the United States, in which case they have no tariffs.
Speaker 2 That's not what they're going to do.
Speaker 37 These factories are going to shut down.
Speaker 5 It's going to be devastating for our economy here.
Speaker 13 Although Donald Trump is making posts like this today to the great farmers of the United States, get ready to start making a lot of agricultural product to be sold inside the U.S.
Speaker 2 Tariffs will go on external product on April 2nd.
Speaker 42 Have fun.
Speaker 8 I guess Donald Trump just thinks this is all one big game.
Speaker 35 Meanwhile, the Atlanta Federal Reserve is now projecting a GDP contraction of about negative 2.8% in the first quarter.
Speaker 33 It was expected to grow.
Speaker 46 about two and a half, three percentage points, and now it's expected to contract.
Speaker 32 Many economists believe we are heading into a significant recession and perhaps something even worse right now.
Speaker 53 All of this follows, by the way, we've covered it a lot on our channel, of course.
Speaker 5 This horrific meeting between Donald Trump, J.D.
Speaker 4 Vance, and President Zelensky, where Trump and J.D.
Speaker 39 Vance humiliated the United States in front of all the world media by wagging his finger at a war hero, President Zelensky, attacking Zelensky,
Speaker 56 just doing Putin talking points over and over again.
Speaker 31 Dmitry Peskov, who's basically Vladimir Putin's Caroline Levitt.
Speaker 21 Peskov is Putin's press secretary, says the United States' foreign policy and Russia's policy are directly aligned right now, that the U.S. and Russia will vote together on everything, and the U.S.
Speaker 13 policy now matches Russia's policy.
Speaker 2 From that same press conference earlier today where Donald Trump was tanking our economy here in the United States, Donald Trump says that he thinks Zelensky just needs to be more appreciative and thankful.
Speaker 34 Here, play this clip. Mr.
Speaker 62 President, what do you need to see from President Zelensky to restart these negotiations?
Speaker 23 Well, I just think he should be more appreciative because this country has stuck with them through thick and thin.
Speaker 23 We've given them much more than Europe, and Europe should have given more than us, because, as you know, that's right there. That's the border.
Speaker 23 This country really was like the fence on the border.
Speaker 23 It was very important to Europe, and I'm not knocking Europe. I'm saying that just they were a lot smarter than Joe Biden because Joe Biden didn't have a clue.
Speaker 23
He just gave money hand over fist and they should have been able to equalize with us. In other words, if we gave a dollar, they should have given.
Well, we gave...
Speaker 32 Europe gave more money than the United States of America.
Speaker 50 Every single thing that Donald Trump says is false and is a lie and just utterly pathetic.
Speaker 32 We'll talk later in the show about some of these town halls and ruby red Republican areas where people are just so livid at Donald Trump supporting Vladimir Putin and bring the United States to join the access of evil with Putin and North Korea.
Speaker 58 And of course, people are pissed with Donald Trump taking away their Medicaid.
Speaker 43 You had Elon Musk over the weekend going on the Joe Rogan show to say that Social Security is a massive Ponzi scheme.
Speaker 47 They are gutting workers and the government and as you see, destroying our economy.
Speaker 63 But folks, Melania Trump was on Capitol Hill.
Speaker 32 She had an important message about
Speaker 50 wants to stop all of that bullying going on in digital spheres.
Speaker 33 Here, play this clip.
Speaker 62 Thank you so much, Senator Cruz.
Speaker 47 That should be on.
Speaker 64 Which is on?
Speaker 65 It's not very loud.
Speaker 62 Good afternoon.
Speaker 13 I'm here with you today with a common goal to protect our youth from online harm want to protect our youth from online harm donald trump during the campaign would post all of these ai like deep fake images of taylor swift having the swifties give him fake endorsements fake ai images of taylor swift swifties for trump donald trump also uh attacked there's some of the images there for those on audio i'm showing the ai images donald trump made of fake women and taylor swift endorsing him when she never endorsed him and then donald trump also attacked Ted Cruz's wife and said that she was a very ugly person.
Speaker 3 And
Speaker 19 that's why Ted Cruz was with her.
Speaker 43 But Ted Cruz was fine having Melania there.
Speaker 68 Let me show you how Fox is trying to spin this all.
Speaker 21 Larry Kudlaw, I mean, again, the Fox state regime media at this point would make North Korea's state regime media and Russia's state regime media blush.
Speaker 69 Here's Larry Kudlaw saying that the reason that it's all crashing is we're seeing what is left of the the Biden economy slumping so badly.
Speaker 71 Here, play this clip. Last one.
Speaker 72
What's left of the Biden economy is slumping so badly. It's just slumping.
This is the legacy of the Biden economy.
Speaker 14 Will we hear?
Speaker 72 I want you to tell me, Caroline Levitt. I want you to say, Larry, we're going to have lots of talk about.
Speaker 17 I mean, so utterly.
Speaker 40
I'm not going to even play the rest of it. It's so pathetic.
Let me bring on Brett and Jordy.
Speaker 56 Brothers.
Speaker 31 Welcome to the Midas Touch podcast.
Speaker 14
Welcome, everybody. Welcome, brothers, and welcome, everybody listening and watching.
It's just the whole thing. It's all beyond parody.
Speaker 14 And I remember, you know, when we would be hitting stock market record after record after record, and they'd cut to kud low on Fox, he would step in and say something hard. The economy in shambles.
Speaker 14 It really is state regime media. And not enough people realize that.
Speaker 14 Like, I under know this audience realizes that, but a lot of people watch Fox and think because they're on a set, because they have, you know, business shows and all this other sort of the iconography of news channels that it's actual news, but it's completely fake.
Speaker 14 The thing that really just bothers me the most right now is we could have been chilling right now, fellas. We could have been working, building on the success of the economy, working our way on up.
Speaker 14 GDP was predicted to be somewhere between 2% and 3%
Speaker 14 in 2025 with Biden's policies. We could have just, you know, been hanging out, not destroying our alliances overseas, not threatening to invade other countries.
Speaker 14 countries, just enjoying what we've built over the past few years and continuing to build on that progress in order to make things better for Americans.
Speaker 14 But instead, it's just Donald Trump and these just lunatics inflicting pain on everybody.
Speaker 14 But the good news, we see folks rising up across the country, including in deep red areas, as Ben was alluding to earlier.
Speaker 14
And you could tell they're afraid about this because of the lies that they are trying to come up with around this. They're fake protesters.
These aren't actually
Speaker 14
Republicans in these Republican districts. These are paid Soros protesters.
Man, that's Soros guy all over the map, according to these people.
Speaker 14 I like how the Democrats are also the most incompetent party on the planet that cannot put two and two together, cannot organize a single thing, yet they're able to brilliantly organize all these protests across these country, small districts, big districts, everywhere.
Speaker 14 They're actually brilliant geniuses, right? That was the strategy they use with Biden, right, too. He was both senile and a mastermind who masterminded.
Speaker 14
every single criminal prosecution against Donald Trump, no matter the state, no matter the district. These people are utter clowns.
We're going to break it all down.
Speaker 14 First, I got to toss it over to Jordy. Jordy, what's new?
Speaker 75
I am super excited to get into the show. What's up, everybody? Yeah, Brett, these fake protesters, this is their new Antifa.
It was Antifa January 6th.
Speaker 77 That's what they're doing there.
Speaker 75 And it's even worse than you remember, Brett and Ben, about the economy.
Speaker 75 As the economy was soaring under Biden and we were hitting record stock market highs day in and day out, remember what they also said? Oh, this is because Donald Trump is getting ready to take office.
Speaker 75 So, how can it be that the Biden economy,
Speaker 75 the legacy of it, is what is happening right now under Trump's leadership?
Speaker 75 However, when Biden was actually in office and the stock market was hitting record highs, and you could actually look at your 401ks without wanting to vomit,
Speaker 75 it's unbelievable what's happening.
Speaker 14
Let me draw a flow chart for you, Jordy. Stock market good.
Yeah.
Speaker 80
Line goes to Trump. Trump's fault.
Oh, okay.
Speaker 14 Got it. Stock market bad to Biden.
Speaker 71 To Biden?
Speaker 14 Okay.
Speaker 14 I think Fox has that chart in their bathrooms, actually.
Speaker 81 Without any money.
Speaker 36 I think what you have to look at sometime are any of the corporate media's predictions and just say the exact opposite is going to happen, right?
Speaker 8 Under former President Biden, what were the headlines?
Speaker 19 They literally said 100% chance of recession under Biden. That's what they said.
Speaker 1 You remember the headlines when Trump took office?
Speaker 6 They were basically saying the headlines literally said 0% chance of recovery.
Speaker 46 That's true.
Speaker 27 That's actually what the headlines said.
Speaker 53 And I was saying, well, that's interesting because if he imposes the tariffs like he says he's going to do, if he implements Project 2025, if he does what he and Elon Musk said they were going to do, which was literally, this was their words, inflict severe economic hardship on the American people to break the country down and then rebuild rebuild it in the image of Elon Musk.
Speaker 85 Like Musk said that.
Speaker 86 I said, well, I'm going to tell you what the outcome of that's going to be.
Speaker 87 The outcome's going to be recession or more likely even depression, because that's what happens when you do these things.
Speaker 44 And then even right now, while you're seeing a lot of headlines
Speaker 22 predicting really bad things now happening in the economy, because they're actually now happening, they still try to like normalize it.
Speaker 67 They go, yeah but with all of this we still see potential for no no no no no no okay donald trump is a freaking madman like he's literally a crazy person like he was at mar-a-lago like golfing and like doing weird ymca dances over the weekend while europe held an emergency summit of presidents and prime ministers throughout europe
Speaker 37 The leader of Turkey show up, the leader of the prime minister of Canada showed up because
Speaker 9 they recognize that the United States has now become an ally of Vladimir Putin and that they need to join together and create a strong security apparatus because they've already recognized, although they're not going to say it out loud yet, that NATO is basically done.
Speaker 56 So Trump's destroyed NATO right away. He's destroyed all of our alliances.
Speaker 9 He's destroying our economy.
Speaker 92 He's destroying our federal government.
Speaker 31 He attacks our closest allies and neighbors.
Speaker 93 He attacks Taiwan.
Speaker 38 Whether Donald Trump is actually
Speaker 40 an agent of Russia, a useful idiot of Russia, whether Russia has something over Donald Trump, or for something else that is not one of those three, I don't know.
Speaker 1 But what I do know is everything he's doing seems to be directly benefiting Russia the way Russia would want to script it for them.
Speaker 82 So in many ways, even if you don't have the paperwork to be an official agent, if you're out there promoting Putin over and over again and attacking Zelensky and attacking NATO, does it even matter if you're an official agent?
Speaker 93 You are doing the work of one.
Speaker 18 That's who all of these things seem to benefit.
Speaker 14 Russia is overjoyed right now, and they can't even contain their excitement on their propaganda networks and in the statements coming out of the Kremlin. And we have Donald Trump, J.D.
Speaker 14 Vance, Elon Musk, all these people.
Speaker 14 And Elon Musk, by the way, throughout the weekend, kept tweeting all these bad things about NATO, along with these Republican Congress people saying that we need to get out of NATO.
Speaker 14 NATO has been a tremendous success, an incredible defensive alliance that has resulted in the longest era of peace amongst these European nations in the history of the world.
Speaker 14 And they want to get rid of this because why? Because it's Vladimir Putin's wet dream that he has had now for decades and decades and decades. And Elon Musk wants to make that a reality for him.
Speaker 14
And it's just dangerous. Like the stuff they're doing is just reckless and dangerous.
And I guess that's the point of it. But real people are getting hurt.
Speaker 14 And as I've said on the show, and I'll say it again, I'll say it every single episode
Speaker 14 that they could only outrun reality for so long. And reality is quickly catching up to them.
Speaker 14 Then, as we see the stock markets collapse the way they're collapsing, as these Trump supporters are going to look in their bank accounts, as they're going to see their 401ks every single day, just the money just pouring on out of their accounts, as these farmers are going to wake up and they're going to realize that they're not able to export their goods anymore.
Speaker 14 They're not going to import any goods that they need anymore. As these factories are going to close down, especially the auto industry is going to be hit super hard.
Speaker 14
And these tariffs, he moved the China tariff up to 20% now. That's going to be devastating for Americans.
The 25% in Canada and in Mexico is going to be devastating for Americans.
Speaker 14 Whole industries may be wiped out. And you know what? Elon Musk did say before the election that he was going to inflict pain on the American people.
Speaker 14 So I guess in that regard, a promise is made, a promise is kept from this administration because people are feeling the pain.
Speaker 14 And whether they want to try to claim these people are fake protesters and aren't really angry or not, the reality is that they are. And this is going to come back to haunt them.
Speaker 14 The American people are going to continue to rise up. And Ben, just going back, because I don't want anybody to think like, oh, there's no way the media predicted a 100% recession under Biden.
Speaker 14 Who would make such a bold prediction of not even couching it in like 99%, 99.9%?
Speaker 14 100% means that sounds pretty definitive, if you ask me.
Speaker 95 Literally,
Speaker 14
Bloomberg, here's the forecast. This was October 2022.
On the left, for those listening, I have an article up from Bloomberg. Forecast for U.S.
recession within year hits 100%
Speaker 14 in blow to Biden.
Speaker 32 Hits 100%
Speaker 93 in blow to Biden.
Speaker 14 100%.
Speaker 14 They were very confident of that. And it was articles like this.
Speaker 14 This, by the way, is kind of around the exact same time that Biden's approval rating started to fall, actually, kind of August, September
Speaker 75 17th, 2022. That is.
Speaker 14 Yeah, October 2022. So this kind of coincides with around that time.
Speaker 14 So think about that now and think about the narrative that was set with the Biden economy as the Biden economy was growing and ended up growing significantly throughout those four years. 100%
Speaker 14 chance of recession never ended up happening. In fact, the economy ended up having a great deal of growth over those next few years.
Speaker 14
We had some months of 4% growth, 3% growth, hitting stock market record after record. Now, here's the article on the right.
This one's from Business Insider. This is an article from December 2024.
Speaker 14 The probability of a U.S. recession in 2025 is 0%.
Speaker 14 Once again, not couching it in 2.5%, 5%, not even giving them any bit of room for error here. They said it was 0%.
Speaker 14
Here's what to worry about instead. Well, here we are.
It didn't take a rocket scientist. It didn't take a genius.
Speaker 14 Three months later, and we are in a place now where economists are predicting a full-blown recession later this year. We're looking at these, the Dow Jones having absolute collapse.
Speaker 14
We saw it in real time. I think Donald Trump today was actually trying to pump up the markets because the markets started out not so good.
So he held this kind of press conference.
Speaker 14
He started speaking about some investments in Arizona. He saw the markets kind of coming up a little bit.
You know, they were still down, but they were rising just a little bit.
Speaker 14 Then he got to the tariffs and in real time, they just started tanking and tanking so hard that we showed you that Fox clip earlier.
Speaker 14 Fox put up a Dow watch, the Dow watch to show people, and I'm surprised that they even did that, to be honest, to show people how it was collapsing.
Speaker 14 And so now we're dealing with the real realities of this, of of these tariffs, of the stock market, of people losing their jobs, of these government jobs going away.
Speaker 14
People are filing jobless claims every week. They're going up.
We're in a really bad place as a country, and they're not going to be able to outrun this reality for long.
Speaker 14 I think we're already at that point.
Speaker 69 I'm really glad you showed the receipts there, too.
Speaker 35 So people know I do a painstaking job to bring you the actual facts and the evidence.
Speaker 86 And I really try to avoid hyperbolic rhetoric.
Speaker 41 And it may seem sometimes, whoa, they said 100% or 0%.
Speaker 39 I wanted, Brett, I'm really glad that you showed people those actual articles because they were shocking to me.
Speaker 50 And when
Speaker 48 former President Biden was in office, despite there being like record GDP growth, energy independence at the end of the Biden administration, the lowest border crossings really in a very, very
Speaker 44 long time,
Speaker 82 the largest job growth ever, the constant barrage of disinformation made people who were actually living in a time where a lot of the economic data was trending in the right direction feel like they were in a recession or a depression.
Speaker 87 And I understand, I don't want to undermine the fact that prices were up, but we have to also be real about who kind of lit the match that started that fire with the higher prices.
Speaker 22 And it was caused by the first Trump administration. And again, I don't do hyperbolic rhetoric.
Speaker 2 You can go back and watch a lot of the videos that I do where Ron DeSantis, governor of Florida, MAGA guy, said that that's what caused higher prices.
Speaker 25 Nikki Haley, former governor of South Carolina, she said that in the Republican debate because Trump added $8 trillion in debt.
Speaker 3 That's inflationary.
Speaker 50 Trump printed money recklessly after handling, or I would say not handling at all, COVID.
Speaker 100 And then you have to fix it.
Speaker 77 So when you fix it, that causes a shock in your economy, and you have to deal with it the way Biden dealt with it.
Speaker 18 And that was inflation, that was inflationary.
Speaker 69 And so, right now, Brett, you had all the corporate media, they were doing all they can to help Trump with all of this
Speaker 45 propaganda about how great his policies are.
Speaker 89 And I'm like, what are you talking about?
Speaker 14 And you have all like the, you have them pushing also this idea, like, oh, you know, whatever happens to Trump, though, you know, the stock market's going to go crazy.
Speaker 14
And you know, who's really excited also? Crypto people. Crypto people are super psyched.
Well, how excited are they now? I think Bitcoin is down below where it was when Trump took office.
Speaker 14 All these markets are crashing. And we're going to get into his Bitcoin scam in a little bit that he tried to pull where he was pumping all these
Speaker 14 meme coins and these coins.
Speaker 14 Crazy as that.
Speaker 75 It's the fallacy, once again, of this Trump is a businessman, and that's why I'm going to vote for him argument.
Speaker 75 Those folks, those voters, so much more disingenuous than the voters that would just tell you straight up, no, I like Trump's racist rhetoric and I like his awful policies.
Speaker 75 Like, if that's why you voted for him, it's disgusting and I don't agree with it, obviously, but at least I could begin to understand, okay, you're just a shitty person.
Speaker 75
But Trump is a good businessman and he's going to do great things for the economy. I mean, you're lying to yourself.
You are lying to yourself. And now you get to reap the benefits.
Speaker 75 And I'm not spiking the football.
Speaker 93 I'm an American.
Speaker 75 I have to reap the consequences of this alongside with you. So thanks a lot.
Speaker 81 Here's what I want to do.
Speaker 49 Sorry, guys, sorry, I was just going to say, when we come back after our first break i i want to pull out some receipts to that point jordy i want to look at donald trump's filing that he made recently with the sec because he has a publicly traded company called trump media that runs truth social that lost $400 million last year and only made about 3.7 million in total revenue, not profit, in total revenue.
Speaker 19 So your local boba shop, your local coffee shop is probably doing more revenue than Donald Trump's Trump media company that controls Truth Social.
Speaker 68 But I'll show you.
Speaker 11 I'll show you the amount of bankruptcies that he's had.
Speaker 96 Okay.
Speaker 101 So you can see it.
Speaker 71 Like it's like almost difficult.
Speaker 1 Like it's difficult to do so many bankruptcies.
Speaker 102 I'll show it to you in his own words.
Speaker 71 So if you have someone in your life like, but he's a good businessman, I'm going to say.
Speaker 12 Show him this right here.
Speaker 42 I want to talk about that.
Speaker 10 I want to talk about the reaction that we're seeing in Europe to Donald Trump's support of Vladimir Putin.
Speaker 53 I want to show you, Brett, to your point, I want to talk about all of these scams that they're doing now, the Trump gold card, sell to Russian oligarchs $5 million for visas and citizenship.
Speaker 89 And if you spend $10 million out of $5 million,
Speaker 98 you will get $50 trillion.
Speaker 94 Hey, you know, and they just keep doing these ridiculous scams because...
Speaker 31 They realize they're about to add $20 trillion to $50 trillion to the deficit.
Speaker 104 So they're going to act like, but we're going to to make it up in Trump gold cards, like literally snake oil crap.
Speaker 24 Talk about that and more.
Speaker 18 I want to remind everybody about a few things.

Speaker 3 So since my daughter was born a few months back, I've been really focused on my fitness and doing what I can to stay healthy.
Speaker 39 And so I recently discovered Armra Colostrum.
Speaker 3 And it's been a way I strengthen my immunity and gut health.
Speaker 79 And it's been great.
Speaker 7 Armra colostrum can help you optimize your whole body microbiome, strengthen your immune barriers along the mouth, sinuses, gut, urinary, and reproductive tract, and guard against unwelcome particles for your strongest immune health.
Speaker 8 Armra colostrum can help combat bloating.
Speaker 49 It helps you feel lighter.
Speaker 77 Probiotics are touted as a gut health solution, but they only address one part of the four-part gut wall, and most products on the market are dead before they even reach your gut.

Speaker 48 Let's talk about the things that we know about Donald Trump, right?
Speaker 32 He bankrupts a lot of things. He hates paying contractors.
Speaker 9 He hates Ukraine.
Speaker 57 He loves Vladimir Putin.
Speaker 79 And he loves talking about himself.
Speaker 2 And he does a lot of scams.
Speaker 101 So he's kind of acting consistent with the way he's acted.
Speaker 11 his entire life.
Speaker 89 Like this shouldn't be like, oh my God, he's doing a Trump card scam.
Speaker 18 That's like all he knows how to do.
Speaker 104 It's like, you know, if you
Speaker 87 the basketball players out there, right, there's some players when you're growing up who only know how to dribble with their right hand.
Speaker 89 So you go, there's going right. That's all they know how to do is go right.
Speaker 94 Trump only knows to do one direction and he's just doing the same routine that he knows how to do over and over again, which is to like destroy things.
Speaker 76 I mean, look, this is from his own 10K.
Speaker 19 I just want you to see it.
Speaker 33 I'm not going to read the whole thing.
Speaker 69 You could take a screenshot of this so you can see.
Speaker 95 This is Trump's disclosure that says a number of companies that were associated with Trump have filed for bankruptcy.
Speaker 68 So there are no
Speaker 48 assurances that the Trump media will not also become bankrupt.
Speaker 83 So it talks about all the companies that went bankrupt, like the Trump Taj Mahal filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1991.
Speaker 112 The Trump Plaza.
Speaker 83 the Trump Castle and the Plaza Hotel, all owned by Donald Trump, filed for Chapter 11 in 1992. Then another company called THCR, which was founded by Trump in 1995, that filed for bankruptcy in 2004.
Speaker 56 And then you had a new name that was given to it, declared bankruptcy in 2009, Trump Hotels and Casino.
Speaker 29 So bankruptcy, bankruptcy, bankruptcy, bankruptcy, bankruptcy, bankruptcy.
Speaker 51 It's right there.
Speaker 38 Did the deep state go back in time using a time machine to achieve this?
Speaker 71 Is that what happened?
Speaker 18 And then it it goes a number of companies that do licensing deals with Trump also failed.
Speaker 31 So there are no assurances that Trump Media will also not fail the way these companies failed.
Speaker 76 So it talks about Trump Shuttle, Trump University, Trump Vodka, Trump Stakes, Trump Mortgage, Gotrump.com, and so on and so forth.
Speaker 18 ceased operations and failed over time. So between the bankruptcies and the business failures, look, I get, you know, sometimes things don't always succeed.
Speaker 95 But this whole idea that this guy had like good business acumen, I mean, you see right there that he didn't.
Speaker 32 So he brings in this guy, Howard Luttnick, as his commerce secretary.
Speaker 47 Howard Luttnick, a billionaire guy, Wall Street guy.
Speaker 10 and is treating our economy, in my opinion, like a pump and dump scheme.
Speaker 48 Now, I just want you to, I'll show you this clip clip of Howard Luttnick, the commerce secretary, as he kind of goes on TV, and it looks like he's selling, no offense to like a sham wow,
Speaker 76 yes offense to my pillow.
Speaker 113 But he's out there like, it's like an infomercial.
Speaker 89 All right, so here's what we're going to do, everybody. Okay, we got the Trump.
Speaker 96 I know the economy may be in the tank right now.
Speaker 38 I know that everything's going in the wrong direction. Okay, but I got a secret for you.
Speaker 93 If you order a Trump card right now, Russian oligarchs, here's what we're going to do here.
Speaker 38 Watch, like, I'm not really exaggerating that much here at PlayStation.
Speaker 62 There are a lot of questions about that, and he wants to get rid of the IRS.
Speaker 116 Of course, if we could have the outside, I mean, that's a big objective, right? The big objective would be to have enough money come in from the outside sources, selling
Speaker 116
visas, the ability to have a green card to come to America. Imagine if you sold a million of them, you'd pay off our deficit and have 15 trillion to spare.
And that's only 3% of America. It's nothing.
Speaker 116 So the concept of replacing us paying, we're like we have Stockholm syndrome.
Speaker 116 We just are so happy to pay, we forgot that maybe other people should pay and we should have the benefit of living in the great America.
Speaker 114 Let me tell you how we make America great for the simple price, $5 million.
Speaker 103 If you are a Russian oligarch and you are watching this, Chinese oligarchs, welcome as well.
Speaker 45 If you would like to purchase your citizenship here, buy a Trump gold card.
Speaker 118 Now, a Trump gold card comes with a very fancy picture of Donald Trump, and you could even get a picture of Donald Trump golfing everybody or Donald Trump doing the YMCA dance.
Speaker 118 Nothing says America like an oligarch purchasing a Trump YMCA Trump gold card, Brett.
Speaker 94 I mean,
Speaker 41 it's the stupidest shit. Excuse me, it's the stupidest stuff that we're watching play out.
Speaker 14 Like, it's just dumb. It's just dumb.
Speaker 14 When you watch that, too, like, I know everyone doesn't have street smarts per se, but I don't think you need a lot of street smarts to listen to that and go, oh, I'm being scammed.
Speaker 14 I'm being scammed right now. Like, and it's all these people in the Trump administration.
Speaker 14 Every time they open their mouth, I'm like, it's so obvious a scam that how isn't 95% of the country catching on to what is going on? Like, I'm thinking even about the Kudlow clip.
Speaker 14 And by the way, Kudlow was in the Trump, the previous Trump administration. He's on the Fox host who covers like the economy and has been been wrong literally about everything.
Speaker 14
Like, I think if you go back to Kudlow during the 2008, 2009 market crash, he's like, things are about to be great. Everything's about to be awesome.
Get ready for prosperity, folks. Economy crashes.
Speaker 14 Like, you could definitely make like a supercut of Larry Kudlow throughout the past like four decades, and he will say the wrong thing right before a major economic catastrophe, like every single time.
Speaker 14
These guys are fraudsters. They're scammers.
And they're all built in the image of Donald Trump. And it's just so disturbing that people aren't catching on to these scams.
But,
Speaker 14
you know, like I keep saying, though, they're not going to be able to outrun this reality for long. Trump's approval ratings are plummeting quickly.
His handling of the economy is a disaster.
Speaker 14
His approval rating amongst independents is an absolute disaster. Like, people are pissed off.
And you're also taking away people's jobs,
Speaker 14
a lot of Republicans' jobs. Like, there have been programming.
programs and I feel like a lot of people forget this.
Speaker 14 There have been so many programs throughout the past few decades in order order to help veterans that have prioritized veterans getting jobs in the federal government.
Speaker 14
Some may call it part of DEI initiatives. Oh, yeah, they don't like those.
Guess what? The I stands for inclusion, and including veterans in our government is part of that.
Speaker 14 Including disabled people in our government is all part of that. These are the policies that they got rid of.
Speaker 14 And now they are firing the federal workforce, which contains a large number of veterans, a lot of them who are Republicans. So we're seeing this play out over and over and over again right now.
Speaker 14 Just the ruthlessness in which they are handling our economy, the callousness in which they are treating the people.
Speaker 14 And I just cannot even imagine if even the fringiest of fringe Democrats, I don't even know who that would be, went on TV and said that their constituents, the things that they are saying, that they're fake, that they're imposters, ignoring the will of the people.
Speaker 14 I saw one of these
Speaker 14 Republicans, I think it was in Tennessee. I think it was posted by Tennessee Holler, who does incredible work.
Speaker 14 The people in the crowd in this deep red district were pissed off because they were giving all these giveaways to billionaires and making Elon Musk richer and doing all these things.
Speaker 14 And instead of leveling with the people and saying, you know what, you're right, we need to be doing more things for working class Americans.
Speaker 14 The woman went on a rant defending the rich, saying, Well, the 1% actually are responsible for the growth in our country, and the 1% actually pay the most in tax.
Speaker 14 Like, how could you possibly say that to your own constituents?
Speaker 14 They never go full trickle.
Speaker 14 They really just do not care about their people.
Speaker 14 And there's just such incredible brainwashing that has happened thanks to outlets like Fox and thanks to social media outlets that are controlled by these same billionaires that are putting their thumb on the scale of these algorithms in order to control people, in order to push them to support policies that screw them, but help the billionaires who are controlling them.
Speaker 14
It's just, it's obvious. And I just urge everybody to constantly be on guard anytime you hear these people speak because I just feel it.
Like I feel it in my bones when I hear a Luttnick speak.
Speaker 75
Absolutely. And what do we say about Donald Trump? He's a WMD, a weapon of mass distraction.
That might work early on. It might be cute for your, you know, most loyal of loyalists, Donald, right?
Speaker 114 Oh, what are we going to do? We're going to rename it Gulf of America. Look over here, everyone.
Speaker 114 We're going to take over Greenland.
Speaker 98
We're going to make Canada the 51st state. Everyone, look over there.
Keep looking over there.
Speaker 75 Sooner or later, people are going to stop looking over there and start looking back at their 401ks and realize that they're also out of a job at the same time.
Speaker 75 The chickens are going to come home to roofs sooner rather than later. And we are seeing that play out.
Speaker 81 And we're seeing too well.
Speaker 10 Such a great point, Jordy, because people have been living in their rage algorithms instead of their actual real life.
Speaker 91 Right.
Speaker 21 The manufactured rage and the propaganda was so powerful.
Speaker 20 And you've talked about it, Jordy, that to some extent you feel bad for some of the people who have fallen prey to it because it's tens of billions of dollars or even trillions of dollars being used by corporate media and right-wing media to infect their minds and get them pissed off about things that frankly really aren't impacting them directly.
Speaker 41 So what you kind of see, and look, I think there'll be 20, 25% people who will be MAGA until the very end.
Speaker 101 But for another group of people, it seems that the spell is like wearing off like a little bit.
Speaker 14 And when you see some of these town halls, when you see what's happening in Ruby Red districts, districts, like you don't get more ruby red than Texas's third congressional district.
Speaker 63 I mean, Keith Self, like this, this guy, I think, won by like plus 30.
Speaker 54 Like, this is a massive Republican district.
Speaker 58 And I'll show you what went down when he held his town hall recently.
Speaker 69 Let's play this clip.
Speaker 119 The other one is the Dodge program.
Speaker 119 Listen very closely again,
Speaker 119 listen very closely again what Bill Benton did in between 93
Speaker 87 And then there's another clip where they were yelling, do your job.
Speaker 59 Do your job. Here, watch this.
Speaker 81
Do your job. Do your job.
Do your job. Do your job.
Do your job.
Speaker 1 Let's take a look, too, at New York's third congressional district at Hofstra University, which is a plus five Trump congressional district.
Speaker 56 It's actually represented by a Democratic congress member.
Speaker 59 The Democratic Congress member won the district, but then Trump beat Kamala in this district in a plus five, you know, Trump district.
Speaker 41 Tom Swazi, he held a town hall in this area.
Speaker 2 And when Swazi talked about, he goes, look, you know,
Speaker 74 I'm in a reddish district.
Speaker 48 I'm a Democrat, so you know that I'm someone who tries to bring everyone together.
Speaker 49 He goes, what I saw in the Oval Office with what Trump and J.D.
Speaker 47 Vance did to Putin, I'm not ever going to try to find common ground with that.
Speaker 45 And then the crowd gave him a standing ovation.
Speaker 12 Watch this.
Speaker 120 Listen, everybody's freaking out.
Speaker 121 Everybody's like, you know, I'm Mr.
Speaker 120
Lee. Let's work together.
Let's try and find common ground. And what happened in the White House yesterday, I was so pissed off.
Speaker 120 I wanted you to get that out of your system.
Speaker 5 You know, and now the line that's coming from the White House, from Trump, from J.D.
Speaker 10 Vance,
Speaker 21 from, you know, anybody from the NSA director is Zelensky needs to apologize.
Speaker 35 Zelensky needs to say thank you.
Speaker 101 Have you said thank you? Have you said thank you here?
Speaker 13 We got this photo of JD Vance that you made, Brett, as the economy is crashing.
Speaker 61 You know, I think this kind of perfectly sums it up, this meme that you created of JD saying, have you said thank you once?
Speaker 101 Have you said thank you?
Speaker 91 You know, you just need to, you need to apologize.
Speaker 102 You need to go on TV, Zelinski, and you need to say how thankful you are to dear leader Donald.
Speaker 48 And
Speaker 13 you need to just say how great he is and how important he is to you and your life.
Speaker 41 And Zelensky's like, look, I've said thank you a hundred times.
Speaker 40 I mean, by the way, Trump's given Zelensky like no money at all.
Speaker 18 Like he's basically cut off all of the money.
Speaker 22 So let's be clear.
Speaker 12 Former President Biden gave Zelensky, you know, and the American people and our government.
Speaker 40 And frankly, before Trump made this a pro-Putin government, it was a bipartisan largely bipartisan.
Speaker 83 A lot of the MAGA Republican Congress members and about a dozen or so MAGA Republican senators were not, were very pro-Putin.
Speaker 6 But this whole idea of like Zelensky always says, I'm thankful, I'm grateful, thank you, I'm grateful.
Speaker 45 Like, what else do you want the guy to like?
Speaker 13 What else do you want the guy to do or say?
Speaker 19 And all they want is that it's a protein way to beat down on an ally, the same way Trump wants to beat down on Canada and Greenland and Denmark and Europe and Mexico.
Speaker 82 And Trump never says anything negative about our allies.
Speaker 6 I mean, this is Pete Doocy from Fox. Here's what he's hearing from senior White House aides, and that
Speaker 1 Trump won't even start any type of discussions at all until Zelensky goes on TV and says how sorry he is here.
Speaker 122 Play this quick.
Speaker 122 I have been told by a senior official here that nothing's going to happen with this minerals deal until Zelensky goes in front of cameras and makes an explicit public apology for the way that he behaved himself,
Speaker 122 behaved in the Oval Office with that meeting.
Speaker 6 First off, he behaved himself exactly as he should.
Speaker 38 He should apologize for nothing.
Speaker 9 Also, what are you?
Speaker 35 Five years old?
Speaker 55 You need to apologize to me.
Speaker 88 These dispositions are so good.
Speaker 97 And then also, what the hell are we even talking about?
Speaker 104 A minerals deal?
Speaker 2 The United States wants to steal their mint.
Speaker 78 That's what this is about.
Speaker 44 They want to give.
Speaker 78 most of Ukraine to Russia, and then the rest of it, United States, wants to steal the minerals of an ally that's under invasion from a invading force in Russia.
Speaker 87 What Trump said on day one is that prices would go down and that there would be a peace deal in 24 hours.
Speaker 76 And in this weirdo, demented, sicko, wannabe fascist mind of his, he's warped this whole thing into, if you want the deal where America steals your minerals, you need to say you're sorry to daddy.
Speaker 93 You need to like, the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 11 And Zelensky's like, I'm not going to say that Putin is good.
Speaker 101 Like, he's killed like tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people and lawfully invaded.
Speaker 58 I'm not saying Putin's a good guy.
Speaker 89 Like, but don't you want the minerals deal?
Speaker 117 No, I don't want this mineral. You said you were going to figure, you said you were a great negotiator.
Speaker 71 I don't want the minerals deal.
Speaker 113 Why would I want you to steal our minerals for?
Speaker 70 What are you doing?
Speaker 14 It's, it's, it's all.
Speaker 14 It all makes more sense when you view it through the lens of it's basically it's, I mean, it is, it's Russian propaganda.
Speaker 14
Um, and, and it's, it's the Trump administration's version of Russia propaganda. I mean, it's the same way that they operate.
They invent these new narratives that don't actually reflect reality.
Speaker 14 Like this reality,
Speaker 14 this narrative that Zelensky was the one who misbehaved during that meeting is just so preposterous. It doesn't even deserve like a fact check.
Speaker 14 But you all know how ridiculous it is that they're turning it into that Zelensky was the one who was acting up and not Donald Trump screaming like a madman at this war hero who's here just asking for help and has expressed his gratitude numerous times, just coming for a normal meeting.
Speaker 14 Zelensky has went, visited all the world leaders, as we've been reporting on in this episode, just had a summit in Europe with the world leaders as well. Guess what?
Speaker 14 This has never happened before because none of these other leaders are maniacs like Donald Trump are maniacs. I mean, it just, it's absurd that we have to watch this clown show.
Speaker 14 every single day as our alliances just get completely destroyed. And like all Russian propaganda, these lies just get repeated over and over and over again.
Speaker 14 One of the lies that I frequently see on social media, anytime you show any bit of support for Ukraine now on social media, the comments that you get are, okay, so I guess you're going to sign up and you're going to go over there and you're going to fight for Ukraine, right?
Speaker 14 Then pack your bags, get on over there, sign up. This is actually the reason why we actually give aid to Ukraine is so that Americans don't have to ever risk their lives in a war in Europe.
Speaker 14 That's the whole purpose of the aid. You think we're just doing this out of the goodness of our hearts?
Speaker 14 I mean, yes, it's a good thing that we are helping our ally Ukraine in this fight against Russian aggression, but do you think that's the reason?
Speaker 14 Or do you think the reason is because once Putin, if he were to take Ukraine, he would go and he would try to take Poland. He would try to take other nations throughout Europe.
Speaker 14 That would embroil the United States in a world war. What we are doing are taking preventative measures against a war.
Speaker 14 We're taking preventative measures against your sons and your daughters having to go overseas and fight against Russia as they try to do what Hitler did back in the 30s and expand their territory.
Speaker 14
That is the whole reason for these alliances. That is the whole reason for these AIDS.
And once again, like the good little Russian propagandists they are, they try to take
Speaker 14
the concept, which is we are trying to prevent these wars. We are trying to prevent further aggression.
We are trying to prevent Americans from having to go overseas and fight these battles.
Speaker 14 And they go, oh, so you want to go to war.
Speaker 14 And then they try to pretend like they are somehow the peace candidates and the party of peace when actually President Biden was the one who actually kept us out of entering any new wars.
Speaker 14 President Biden was the one who actually removed us from the war in Afghanistan. Even if it was a little sloppy, he removed us from the war in Afghanistan,
Speaker 14 which no president has been able to do in decades and decades and decades. And so those are just like the facts.
Speaker 14 They could twist them all they want, but that is actually the reality of what is going on. And they just continue to twist reality.
Speaker 75 And let's be clear, there's nothing that Zelensky could have done in that meeting that would have actually appeached Trump or Vance because they were full-on Russian propaganda talking points from jump.
Speaker 75 You know, they wanted Zelensky to go in there and to use a Trump verbiage here, like beg like a dog.
Speaker 71 That's what they wanted him to do.
Speaker 75 And even then, because we all know this, when you give the guy an inch, he takes your life, it still wouldn't have been good enough. But at least for them, they would have had documentation of it.
Speaker 75 So that would have helped flatter their egos a little bit more and a little bit better. Going back really quick, because I just want to address these two clips that we played earlier.
Speaker 75 The Keith Self clip from Texas. Brothers, please explain to me.
Speaker 114 Those talking points, they play so well over X.
Speaker 98 For Keith, they do so well over X.
Speaker 118 Why, when he's talking to real people in real life,
Speaker 76
they don't work as well. That's so befuddling to me.
I just truly don't understand it.
Speaker 75 But they do understand it.
Speaker 75 When you look at a guy like Swazi in New York talking to his people and just standing up for democracy, standing up for normalcy, and how the people of New York's third actually love that and how they stand up and they say, yeah, that's our guy.
Speaker 75 You know why? Because he's not kissing the ring of some oligarch because he's actually standing up against that nonsense. And we don't stand for that here.
Speaker 78 You know, a few things.
Speaker 9 The way that Zelensky would have done what Trump and J.D.
Speaker 1 Vance wanted would have been to give up and just said, I'll give up Ukraine to Russia and I'll give you the mineral deal.
Speaker 32 That's what they wanted.
Speaker 40 Anything short of America steals the minerals, Russia steals the land, would be insufficient for Trump and J.D. Vance and Putin because that's what the access of evil wants.
Speaker 2 That's why Zelensky says there needs to be security guarantees.
Speaker 9 That's why they held an emergency meeting in London.
Speaker 37 Shout out to the UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer for arranging this.
Speaker 21 I think he's shown to be a statesman of the highest caliber in history, bringing all of these countries together, prime ministers and presidents, to stand with Ukraine.
Speaker 32 I think it sent a really powerful message that you ain't cutting Europe out of this.
Speaker 89 Europe has Zelensky's back.
Speaker 65 Brett, to address something you said, the only reason why the Afghan withdrawal is sloppy is Trump cut the deal with the Taliban and then didn't do it himself.
Speaker 10 He cut a deal with the enemy.
Speaker 49 He cut out the actual Afghan government at the time, released 5,000 Taliban soldiers, and then they conquered and took over Afghanistan.
Speaker 9 And then Trump was too big of a coward to make the move to move American troops out after essentially getting the troops surrounded because Trump shut down all the other bases and basically had the United States troops surrounded on all sides.
Speaker 63 And former President Biden was left to hold the bag and try to figure out a solution.
Speaker 52 Finally,
Speaker 60 what Donald Trump is also doing as well is threatening to send your kids to go to war against Canada.
Speaker 11 against the European Union, against our allies, against Mexico.
Speaker 91 When Donald Trump and J.D.
Speaker 56 Vance and Pete Hegseth make these threats about sending military into Mexico or making Canada the 51st state, these are war words.
Speaker 2 These are things that are being taken seriously.
Speaker 63 This is the language of Vladimir Putin.
Speaker 11 And what that means is that when Trump's saying Canada is going to be the 51st state, what Trump's saying is he's going to take your kids, anyone of fighting age, and he's going to send them to fight Canadians in a war, and people are going to die.
Speaker 29 What we're seeing in Ukraine and Russia from Russia's unlawful invasion.
Speaker 77 So spare me.
Speaker 73 This is someone who's trying to do peace while talking about annexing countries.
Speaker 76 No, Donald Trump is a wannabe dictator.
Speaker 37 His corruption is matched by his cowardice and his incompetence as well.
Speaker 25 That's what we're seeing.
Speaker 29 When we come back, I want to show you a few things.
Speaker 1 You have the agriculture secretary announced the plan to bring the prices down.
Speaker 83 You need to buy chickens and harvest your own crops, and you need to get your own eggs.
Speaker 38 But you got to do chickens in your backyard.
Speaker 29 I'm not making this up. That's what they're saying.
Speaker 43 Elon Musk says that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme and more.

Speaker 75 I'm not kidding about these, you know, Roganites or these people with Trump fanatics who are leaving these bad comments on our stuff. It's a little bit frustrating if I have to, you know, be honest.
Speaker 75
And I appreciate y'all coming and having our backs and leaving that five-star review and comment thing. So thank you.
It means a lot.
Speaker 36 No, absolutely, Jordy.
Speaker 15 Let me show you a few things.
Speaker 29 Because look,
Speaker 13 it's just so funny that
Speaker 37 these people, like the Roganites or whatever these people are, it's like you have Elon Musk.
Speaker 75 You guys like my branding on that?
Speaker 88 I like that. Well, maybe.
Speaker 81 You have Elon Musk show up on Rogan
Speaker 36 and he calls social social security a Ponzi scheme.
Speaker 27 And we know Elon Musk, right, objectively is someone who's running our government now, whether he's a co-president, pulling Donald Trump's strings as a puppet, whatever it is, right?
Speaker 48 Like this language needs to be taken seriously.
Speaker 79 It's like what I said at the outset of the show.
Speaker 33 When he said he was going to inflict economic hardship, he's doing it, right?
Speaker 70 So when he says that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme and it's a fraud, you know, then Then, where do you think they're going next after they got your Medicaid?
Speaker 29 Where do you think they're going?
Speaker 105 I mean, he's he's telling you.
Speaker 108 So, so then to have like Roganites go, yeah, man, get rid of social security.
Speaker 48 It's like, okay, like, are you that brainwashed that now you're going to get rid of you?
Speaker 78 Like, like you're going to take everything from you.
Speaker 44 Like, like, literally, you're just going to kind of be there, like, all, all alone.
Speaker 45 You're going to be like, but,
Speaker 98 but, but there's no transgender volleyball player in San Jose State.
Speaker 71 Well, yeah.
Speaker 87 And it's like, that's your motivating factor. That's kind of weird.
Speaker 24 You know, that's kind of a weird thing that that's what's your energizing focus, that you're going to now go on to our comment section and write negative reviews.
Speaker 33 I mean, look, it was a three-hour and 11-minute incredibly boring interview, but I'll just show you the portion where Elon Musk refers to Social Security as a Ponzi scheme here.
Speaker 34 Let's play it.
Speaker 123 Well, I mean, the government's one big permit scheme, if you ask me.
Speaker 55 Yeah, well, you could talk about that.
Speaker 123 Social Security is
Speaker 123 the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.
Speaker 55 Well, explain that.
Speaker 123 Oh, so
Speaker 123 well, people pay into Social Security
Speaker 123 and the money goes out of Social Security immediately, but the obligation for Social Security is your entire retirement career.
Speaker 16 All right. So you heard him.
Speaker 10 I mean, I don't need to hear him go, but
Speaker 40 tell me about it. Tell me about it.
Speaker 14 I got to say, for an allegedly very smart person,
Speaker 14 he's not very good at explaining things because that was not.
Speaker 14 what he described was not a Ponzi scheme either I don't even know what he's talking about still and I've heard the extended clip as well it's
Speaker 55 so you have Rogan who launders the oligarchs he's not beating the allegations
Speaker 71 under the subterfuge of comedy and there's nothing funny about that I mean you're going to lose your social security because of because of you know because of that guy because of those those billionaires I mean their their new line as they're tanking the economy is the American people need to buy chickens, and that's how you can get your eggs.
Speaker 3 You need to do chickens in your backyard.
Speaker 71 Like,
Speaker 61 that's their plan.
Speaker 9 I mean, here's Donald Trump's Secretary of Agriculture, Brooke Rollins, saying the solution to high egg prices is for Americans to get some chickens and raise them in your backyard.
Speaker 53 Here, play it.
Speaker 124 I think the silver lining in all of this is how do we, in our backyards, we've got chickens too in our backyard. How do we solve for something like this?
Speaker 124
And people are sort of looking around thinking, wow, well, maybe I could get a chicken in my backyard. And it's awesome.
I agree with you.
Speaker 124 Yeah, I think everyone who isn't a farmer right now wants to be. So you're in the right department, Brooke.
Speaker 41 Yeah, I mean, these people are actually crazy.
Speaker 29 You know, I don't say that light, like this is loony tunes, idiocracy.
Speaker 19 You thought, oh, Ben, you're just saying that, right?
Speaker 10 No, no,
Speaker 29 they're saying that the solution to the fact that inflation is going to be soaring again in egg prices, you can even find eggs, which i can't anymore maybe you can find them i couldn't
Speaker 15 you couldn't find them this weekend yeah i couldn't find them out here
Speaker 75 is is that you an anecdote one of the crazy things i've been seeing too the local shops around me real quick thing um the local you know breakfast shops because i try and go you know weekly with a with my son and my wife empty and like so much more empty because they rely so heavily on an egg first menu that folks just aren't showing up because they've had to increase the prices so now imagine at a scale what that's doing you know to to local shops and restaurants.
Speaker 29 And take a look at what these MAGA Republicans are doing.
Speaker 14 I mean, you have Darrell Issa, MAGA Republican.
Speaker 87 Today I will nominate Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 57 No one deserves it more.
Speaker 56 You've got Congressmember Brandon Gill.
Speaker 86 I'm introducing the Golden Age Act to put Donald Trump on the $100 bill.
Speaker 8 America is experiencing an historic rebirth under Donald Trump.
Speaker 47 His legacy deserves to be immortalized.
Speaker 15 Washington, Lincoln, Reagan, Trump. It's time to make history.
Speaker 16 And by the way, I wonder what Ronald Reagan would think of Donald Trump
Speaker 53 doing whatever Vladimir Putin and Russia wants.
Speaker 3 I think Reagan was atrocious in most respects.
Speaker 2 There's one thing that he did was he said.
Speaker 21 He stood up to Gorbachev, at least in a public speech, tear down that wall.
Speaker 17 So Trump's like
Speaker 2 the exact opposite.
Speaker 32 And by the way, if you got deja vu and you're like, come on, guys i thought you reported on this last week no last week we reported on one of the republican congress members joe wilson who introduced the 250 bill with donald trump's face on it and that post said that uh you need to have the most valuable bill with the most valuable uh president uh on it i think we have this i mean that's what they're doing and then you have maga mike johnson who was on Meet the Press this weekend.
Speaker 47 And MAGA Mike Johnson with a straight face said, here's Here's what we're doing, everybody.
Speaker 53 We've got Elon Musk, who's crawling through the Social Security information with his algorithms.
Speaker 12 I think we've got this clip.
Speaker 112 Let's play it.
Speaker 115 You say there won't be any cuts to entitlements, but on Friday, Elon Musk, who President Trump has, of course, put in charge of making cuts all across the government, called Social Security, quote, the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.
Speaker 115 Mr. Speaker, is that a sign that Social Security is Elon Musk's next target?
Speaker 64 No, well, I've met with Elon about this multiple times. We meet late into the night in his office, and we've looked at that.
Speaker 64 What he's finding with his algorithms crawling through the data of the Social Security system is enormous amounts of fraud, waste, and abuse.
Speaker 71 So it's a target.
Speaker 64 We need to do that. The American people want us to.
Speaker 64 No, no, Kristen, do not,
Speaker 64 don't put words in my mouth. What I am saying is we have a moral responsibility to ensure that those programs are conducted in a way that does not allow for this massive fraud and abuse.
Speaker 64 And that's what he is finding.
Speaker 50 Don't put that fraud in my mouth.
Speaker 13 Don't put that, don't put those words in my mouth that came out of my mouth.
Speaker 97 You said those words.
Speaker 42 Let me try to make this very simple.
Speaker 46 Okay,
Speaker 52 we all agree that fraud
Speaker 2 is a crime, right?
Speaker 40 So, where are all of the arrests?
Speaker 55 Right? I mean,
Speaker 58 the tough guy, FBI, DOJ,
Speaker 53 with all of this fraud that Elon has found,
Speaker 73 where are the fraud arrests
Speaker 106 happening since Doge found all this fraud?
Speaker 7 Oh, wait a minute, there are literally zero,
Speaker 37 zero fraud-related arrests.
Speaker 10 And if you look at the types of people who've in the past been investigated and who invoke the fifth when it comes to things like Medicaid fraud and other fraud like that.
Speaker 10 I mean, you want to, you want to know the biggest one in history, pretty much?
Speaker 2 The MAGA Republican senator from Florida, Rick Scott, invoked the Fifth Amendment close to a hundred times.
Speaker 15 Biggest Medicaid fraud, I think, in like American history.
Speaker 3 He then like left that company, got a massive golden parachute, hundreds of millions of dollars.
Speaker 42 What he got paid and he invoked the fifth.
Speaker 18 And I think the company settled a criminal case
Speaker 50 and
Speaker 29 for the biggest Medicaid fraud scam in history.
Speaker 95 So that's who's actually doing it.
Speaker 29 And so when you start to look a little bit deeper, you know, what's one of their scams, Brett, that you talked about?
Speaker 19 The crypto, this crypto scam? Yeah.
Speaker 85 Where they're talking about, you want to talk about that, Brett?
Speaker 29 That it's just coincidentally is the crypto czar's portfolio of crypto
Speaker 87 of coins that are being bought?
Speaker 14 Yeah, I mean, there's not much more to it than that. But Donald Trump, Donald Trump announced that crypto is going to be great again, and that we're going to have these crypto reserves.
Speaker 14 And America's crypto reserves is going to be the first of its kind. And we're going to start with these five crypto coins.
Speaker 14 And the five crypto coins that Donald Trump picked just so happen to be the exact five crypto coins that make up the portfolio of a company that David Sachs is a major investor in.
Speaker 14 David Sachs being the Donald Trump's crypto czar who's big into crypto. He hosts a podcast and he's definitely been a big Trump propagandist over these past few years.
Speaker 14 But now I even see a lot of these crypto people kind of freaking out because all the value of, you know, every time he does this, it might like pump like Bitcoin and might pump some of these other coins that Donald Trump is kind of picking.
Speaker 14 and choosing, kind of picking and choosing winners. They might pump up for a little bit, but then they end up crashing.
Speaker 14 It's like just another pump and dump scheme that we're seeing from the administration. It's just scam on top of scam on top of scam.
Speaker 14 And, you know, I think you know that it's getting bad when you start seeing the language of the propaganda shift.
Speaker 14 And we pointed out a few weeks ago when we noticed how bad prices were getting under Trump and that we started seeing all those propagandists kind of in unison say stuff like,
Speaker 14
It's patriotic. Patriotic to pay more, folks.
Patriotic, pay more. It's more, it's patriotic.
Get those tariffs. It's like, y'all are the same people who complained when eggs were $2.99.
Speaker 14
Now they're like $12, $15 in some cases. And you're saying it's patriotic? Like, at least show some consistency.
Geez, have some dignity.
Speaker 14 Well, now I'm seeing a lot of people going out there and they're saying, so what if the housing market crashes?
Speaker 71 So
Speaker 14
what if the U.S. economy collapses? That'd be a good thing.
We could use a correction. We could use a big economic collapse right now, guys.
Speaker 14 This actually, let me explain to you why this is good.
Speaker 14 And I'm like already seeing that start to percolate on these MAGA propaganda accounts. And
Speaker 14 it's just so obvious the direction things are heading when you see them start to kind of plant their flags in those regards. But hey, this was Elon Musk's.
Speaker 18 This is what he said, right?
Speaker 14
He said pain. He said he's going to inflict pain.
And that's exactly what's happening right now.
Speaker 14 And, you know, I think we tweeted out like right after the election, things are going to get a whole lot worse. That was the evergreen post of the century.
Speaker 14 Every single day, things just continue to get worse.
Speaker 57 Yeah, I'll talk about this as well.
Speaker 39 Two things to focus on as we head into tomorrow, where these tariffs on Canada and Mexico will be in place.
Speaker 9 The Premier of Ontario, Premier Ford, says he will be cutting off electricity exports to border states if Trump's tariffs go through tomorrow.
Speaker 7 If they want to try to annihilate Ontario, I will do everything, including cutting off their energy with a smile on my face.
Speaker 2 And that's just on the electric grid.
Speaker 4 We're not even talking about auto manufacturing lumber.
Speaker 5 Right now, the futures markets for lumber is at a record high, which means homes aren't going to be built.
Speaker 57 So remember, Trump promised housing would be more affordable.
Speaker 49 Remember, Trump promised prices would go down on day one, and that he had such a great relationship with Zelensky and Putin that peace was going to happen in 24 hours.
Speaker 2 The guy's a con artist.
Speaker 40 He just is. He is a con artist.
Speaker 42 So snap the hell out of it if you're still under this trance.
Speaker 88 He is a con artist, okay?
Speaker 13 And everything he does is a lie.
Speaker 33 We're learning tonight as well, of course, that he's ordered, and obviously this was coming, the pause in all further military aid to Ukraine, with a senior administration official telling Fox News that the aid will be halted until the Ukrainians show a commitment to good faith peace negotiations.
Speaker 59 The Ukrainians were invaded by a hostile, invading foreign force by the Russians who are the bad guys.
Speaker 14 This isn't a hard equation to figure out.
Speaker 38 Russia was the bad guys who invaded our allies, Ukraine.
Speaker 57 And you're attacking Ukraine and saying that they're not involved in good faith negotiations because they're not saying they like Vladimir Putin in Donald Trump's infantile, hostile,
Speaker 52 vile
Speaker 102 mind.
Speaker 50 Again, that's why all of these people were meeting in Europe, all these world leaders to stand up for Ukraine.
Speaker 48 They know where this is headed.
Speaker 49 They're not the United States corporate media, which tries to sugarcoat this.
Speaker 15 They know that Trump is allied with Russia, that Trump has put the United States in a group with North Korea, Russia, Belarus, and Hungary.
Speaker 108 I mean,
Speaker 108 it's the most despicable thing imaginable.
Speaker 79 And you want to know who knew this as well?
Speaker 37 Let me show you who knew this as well.
Speaker 56 Let me show you a montage of, first I'll show you J.D.
Speaker 46 Vance.
Speaker 27 I think this is a good way to kind of sum this up nicely.
Speaker 49 This is what J.D. Vance, by the way, not like 20 years ago, J.D.
Speaker 2 Vance said these things like five or six years ago before changing his identity to run for the Senate seat in Ohio and then be Donald Trump's VP pick.
Speaker 32 This is what J.D.
Speaker 12 Vance had to say about Trump during the first administration and thereafter until he ran for the Senate seat.
Speaker 34 Let's play it.
Speaker 125 I'm a never-Trump guy. I never liked him.
Speaker 121 It makes you think that at a fundamental level, this is sort of a he said, she said, right. And at the end of the day, do you believe Donald Trump, who always tells the truth?
Speaker 121 Just kidding, or do you believe that woman on that tape?
Speaker 27 I cannot stand Trump because I think he's a fraud.
Speaker 88 Well, I think he's a total fraud that is exploiting these people who is a total fraud.
Speaker 126 Like you said, I agree with you on Trump because I don't think that he's the person.
Speaker 126 I don't think he actually cares about folks.
Speaker 125 Definitely, there is definitely an element of Donald Trump support that has its basis in racism or xenophobia.
Speaker 100 I think there's a chance, if I feel like Trump has a really good chance of winning that I might have to hold my nose and vote for Hillary Clinton. I think that
Speaker 100 I'm going to vote third party because I can't stomach Trump. I think that he's noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place.
Speaker 32 I'll show you Marco Rubio, Secretary of State.
Speaker 56 Here's how he once compared Donald Trump to a third world strongman.
Speaker 99 And I'll just let you hear it it in his own words.
Speaker 127 Donald Trump to a third world dictator yesterday in an interview with the New York Times. How so?
Speaker 127 Well, I don't know about a dictator. I said a third world strongman.
Speaker 127 You know, he's running for president, so no matter what, he won't be a dictator unless our republic completely crumbles, which I don't anticipate it will.
Speaker 127 But yeah, here's what happens in many countries around the world.
Speaker 127 You have a leader that emerges and basically says, forget, don't put your faith in yourselves, don't put your faith in society, put your faith in me.
Speaker 127
I'm a strong leader, and I'm going to make things better all by myself. This is very typical.
You see it in the third world. You see it a lot in Latin America for decades.
Speaker 127
It's basically the argument he's making that he single-handedly is going to turn the country around. We've never been that kind of country.
We have a president.
Speaker 127 The president is an American citizen who serves for a period of time, constrained by the constitutions and the powers vested in that office.
Speaker 127 The president works for the people, not the people for the president.
Speaker 35 I think that sums it up where we're at and how cowardly and spineless those individuals are when you go back and you look at history and you wonder, how did someone like Hitler rise?
Speaker 9 How did someone like Mussolini rise?
Speaker 1 Where were the people standing up?
Speaker 5 How could human beings just sacrifice their own free will and their own logic to a strong man or want to be strong man?
Speaker 13 I think you see the psychology play out right there.
Speaker 58 And
Speaker 35 I don't want history to repeat itself.
Speaker 35 And I don't know or don't think there is any analog to what we're trying to build in independent media during the times of the past to what we're trying to do now.
Speaker 49 I want us to be that other variable that didn't exist then.
Speaker 59 Because if you look historically, corporate media is one of the first to fall and kiss the ring. It followed that pattern here.
Speaker 49 when they all went to all the corporate media leaders went to Mar-a-Lago, kissed the ring, entered into their deals or settlements or pacts with Donald Trump or whatever, and gave away the game.
Speaker 39 But here we stand, the Midas mighty together, stronger than ever, growing, educating the American people about what's up, coming with the receipts, and letting you see for yourself.
Speaker 9 That's what we're going to do here each and every day, Brett, unless you want to say anything else.
Speaker 14 No, I think that sounds great. Well said.
Speaker 14 And, you know, I'm thinking back to the town hall, that Keith Self Town Hall in that Texas district where the people were shouting at him, do your job, do your job. I love seeing that energy.
Speaker 14 I want to see it all over the country. But I'm also going to put it back on you, the listeners, and I'm going to put it back on all the Republicans and Independents.
Speaker 14 And if there are Democrats in those districts as well, in those red districts, you also, people, we all have to be doing our job as well, which is to Ben's point, informing the public, making our voices heard, never letting anybody gaslight us into pretending that this is normal, pushing back against that garbage.
Speaker 14 And when the time comes, making sure that everybody shows up at the polls and does their thing.
Speaker 14
I love seeing the reckonings in these town halls. It's going to mean nothing if people don't actually show up and take action.
And so we need to convert this into action.
Speaker 14 We need to look inward at ourselves rather than just looking at all the spineless politicians we see out there and demanding action from them.
Speaker 14
Let's also demand action from ourselves and from our friends and from our family. And let's keep this fight alive.
That's all I wanted to say.
