Speaker 1 (00:02):
Ahead on an American Sunrise early edition.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
California Governor Gavin Newsom can't stop doubling and tripling down
on a fite for illegal aliens. Now he's even bashing
Vice President Vance and his young family while they visit Disneyland.
Is there anything Newsome won't do to protect this cheap
illegal labor scam for him and his shady donors. Is
(00:27):
Team Trump still warring over the Epstein case mess or
is there more infighting to go? FBI Director Cash Betel,
for one, wants everyone to stop speculating. Hey, I thought
the tyrifts were going to crash the economy and blow
up the deficit. Nope, wait until you hear what the
final financial numbers for June look like. The probe into
(00:51):
that terrible Air India jet crash last month has a
damning preliminary conclusion, but it does seem to leave one
key American company off the hook. And what did President
Trump do on the one year anniversary of the assassination
attempt against him? He went right out in front of
the public, end, this time acting as a major host
(01:12):
for a major World Cup soccer championship and proving that
America welcomes legal foreigners all the time.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
American Sunrise Early Edition begins now.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, freedom,
and the values that built this nation takes centers to.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Your good, thieves and bad deeds. That's how we're gonna
judge you.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Join host Jake Novak because he breaks down the stories
that matter.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
He will be letting the public know regularly what we
have found.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Novak starts now.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
It's a Monday here. Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition.
I'm Jay Novec.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Thank you so much for joining us.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I am here with you all the way through ten
am today, so get yourself ready's passing your seatbelts. It's
gonna be fun because I'm also going to be joining
the American Sunrise crew is starting at eight, but first
we have American Sunrise Early Edition. We do things a
little bit differently here. Joining me now to help me
do all that this morning is Veronica Kennedy. She is
the host of Veronica Live. She's also an Air Force
veterans who do not mess with her. Hey, Veronica, I'd
(02:24):
like your thoughts on I'd like your thoughts on how
President Trump marked that one year anniversary of the assassination
attempting Butler. Did he stay at home in his basement?
Did he go to some kind of did he say quietly? No,
He went to this event with eighty six thousand people.
I mean he went more out in front and center
than he even did at some of his rallies. At
(02:45):
this event, the FIFA, a championship event in New Jersey,
a state which isn't exactly one hundred percent pro Trump.
Actually we might flip that state. The Republicans might in
November for governor. So you know, keep your fingers crossed
for those of you who want to see that happen.
But Veronica, this is not This is not a withering wallflower,
is it.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
No. Trump has always been our energizer bunny for years, Jake.
You know that. And you know we marked the one
year anniversary yesterday and he's out in front. You know,
everybody was hooting and hollering USA Milania Trump with their
Christian do your glasses looked spectacular, you know. And I
can't believe it's been a year. And you know that
a year ago, when that assassination happened, I had a
(03:27):
lot of friends that were on the fence when it
came to voting for Trump, and that assassination attempt actually
converted them to Trumper. So I'm so proud that he
has not stopped and he continues to fight for America.
And he loves sports, Jake, he loves sports.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
He does.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
And I think, you know, one of the things I
made a point yesterday because we did some live coverage
of this event right when we weren't allowed to show
the soccer match. God forbid, we infringe on those sports
writs and copyrights and things like that. But we were
able to go live with Brian Glenn right in the
middle of the stadium as the match ended. We showed
the trophy ceremony and all that kind of stuff. And
one of the things that I wanted to make a
(04:05):
point about was, you know, in the United States, we
don't have a prime minister and a president or a
king or something who would do does the ribbon cuttings,
does the head of state stuff, you know, showing up
to these big events, so our president has to do
them if the president just so chooses, and President Trump
did that. I mean, soccer isn't the craziest thing. I'm
sure that soccer isn't the number one sport choice of
(04:26):
most of the Trump voters out there, but this is
a huge event for the United States. We have the
real World Cup, the regular World Cup tournament coming here
next year, and the President is trying to promote American business,
American hospitality, all the things that will help our economy
next year.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
We also have the Olympics coming up in three years.
This is his job.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
And the idea that this country isn't welcoming and this
is our next topic, Veronica.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
The idea of this country is not welcoming.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
To legal foreigners and legal tourists is just ludicrous. But
I still think the number one issue in America is
illegal immigration. And the nastiness in California and the hardiness
in la specifically seemed to know no bounds of Veronica.
In addition to Governor Gavin Newsom attacking Vice President Vance
and his young children online yesterday as they visited Disneyland,
(05:10):
Newsom made a comment about how Disneyland couldn't stay open
without illegal aliens, which I don't see how that's necessarily true.
But even if it were true, that's not christ Vice
President Vance's fault. That's Disneyland's fault. But anyway, on top
of that, now, Veronica, you have Mayor Karen Bass of
LA pledging to deliver deliver cash payments to illegal aliens
(05:31):
because you know they might be afraid to go out
now because they might get nabbed by ice. So I
guess she's gonna do curbside service and give these people cash.
Is there no end, Veronica, to the to the insanity
of these politicians.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
This makes no sense.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
She's like the number one cheerleader for Angelean she calls them,
and these are illegal aliens. I mean, California is a mess,
you know, especially LA has about fifty eight thousand homeless
to boot, so they're not doing well. And of course
Gavin Newson News when we had the pot bust last week,
you know, he was in California or not California, excuse me,
(06:05):
South Carolina running for president because he's the you know,
the candidate that will never go away and wants to
be president. He's not qualified, mister Hairgel. He needs to
concentrate on his state. And it's been a mess from
fires to now this, you know, arresting three hundred illegals
at this legal pot farm. And I learned a lot
(06:25):
about pot. Jane Jake. There's thirty thirty eight percent of
people buy legal pot in California, but the rest are
buying it from like Chinese cartels and Mexican cartels selling
it in California. And they've got twenty percent potheads out
in California. So that state is a is a complete cluster.
And Newsome, you know, he just wants to be president,
(06:47):
thinks he's somebody, but his state's falling apart. And of
course on X he put. You know, he's still mad
that Trump's got five thousand National Guard out there, and
so he's trolling Vance and Trump to get rid of
the Guard. But why are they out there? You know,
here we had this farm bust and people knew that
they were coming. You know, they arrested the three hundred folks.
There was children, ten underage children that were on site.
(07:12):
I mean, this is an embarrassment to California. And you know,
I say this all the time. I've said it for years.
I want legal immigrants that are vetted and then they
could come work with worker visas. That's how I roll
and California could lead the way. If Newsom, you know,
had some manhood.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah, well, I think he's also getting paid off at Veronica.
That's really the only explanation. The polls all show tremendous
support for deporting all illegal aliens. Even the New York
Times poll showed a more than ten percentage point lead
in a poll for all Americans saying they completely want
every illegal deported, and on top of that, for them
to be working children in plotforms. And one thing he
(07:52):
didn't mention Veronica these platforms have been found to be
using an overwhelming amount of pesticide, more than they're legally
allowed to. It was actually not legal pot for those
who think it is. And that's the La Times that
reported that, not some right wing newspaper. All right, let's
talk about another controversy of Verron. Could count me among
the many Americans who really are not satisfied with what
(08:14):
still looks like some kind of cover up or at
least a very badly handled situation with this Jeffrey Epstein case.
But this weekend was full of rumors about big time
defections in the administration. First they said Cash Bettel, the
FBI director, was going to leave. They're still saying that
Dan Bongino, one of his top aids that the FBI
is going to leave. Look Like I said, I'm not
(08:34):
satisfied with where this controversy is shaking out, But are
you willing to give the Trump administration a little bit
more slack or latitude before people start saying, hey, you know,
the whole thing is falling apart.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I am.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I would like to hear more about this Epstein case,
but with the caveat that, I know that we're probably
not going to get real punishment on any of the
people responsible, not because of President Trump or any president beforehim,
but just because these people can easily leave the jurisdiction,
fly off to another crazy island somewhere.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Well, you know, there's definitely something going on. And you know,
I'm maga and I talked to a bunch of my
mega influencers this weekend and they are all mega. We
are in this. This is a marriage. You know. I
worked for the Trump campaign in twenty fifteen for more
than a year to get him elected, and I'm still
gonna be maga. I don't care if Elon Musk starts
an America's Party. I'm not jumping ship. Everything's not going
(09:27):
to be perfect in this administration, but and so far
it's gone pretty well. I am concerned because all weekend
long we heard that bon Bongino potentially was gonna want
to resign. Cash Ptel came out and said that he's
sticking with Trump, and then of course Trump came out
and said that Bondi's doing a great job. I think
she overshot with all of her media appearances, and that
(09:50):
was one of the things. Americans want to close borders,
and then we want we want to know what's happened.
Who's on the Epstein list, And you know, when you're
talking a thousand children that were hurt and and all
these terrible things that happened to that there's got to
be some accountability. So you got to throw us a bone. Jake.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Yeah, I agree, and I think that there might be
something coming. But you're right.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I mean, look, this doesn't you know there are two
things can be true at the same time. There can
be a misstep by people in this administration, and you
can still support the administration overall because you're able to
look at it because you understand math and you know
that when things work out or the things that you
like happening, nine times out of ten, the tenth thing
is not something worth bolting over. But Veronica, there are
some people who definitely are leaving the administration. That would
(10:35):
be the thirteen hundred workers at the State Department who
got laid off all product really, and I don't mean
to laugh. I don't need to laugh with people losing
their jobs, but you know what you make. There's a
couple of points to make here. First of all, the
State Department's staff size since the beginning of the Obama
administration has ballooned by tens of thousands, so this is
really just a drop in the bucket. That's one thing
(10:56):
for people who say, oh, the State Department won't be
able to function anymore. And second of all, in the
private sector, just the last month alone, we had tens
of thousands of layoffs at major companies, nine thousand at Microsoft.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
A loan, Welcome to the world. The rest of us
live in. Federal workers, you.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Don't deserve a lower bar than the rest of us,
But they seem to demand it, don't.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
They, Veronica.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
They do. You know. I was in the military for
twenty years and I often found that federal workers it
was a welfare system because when they were bad, you
couldn't fire them. Of course, there's great workers, and you know,
Secretary of Rubio said, this is a cost saving initiative.
All of the workers that are being let go are
in America. So we've got eleven hundred civil service workers
(11:41):
and about two hundred and fifty Foreign service workers. And
you know, the Foreign service officers are going to get
one hundred twenty days of pay and the Federal service
workers are going to get sixty days of pay. So
it's not like they're kicked to the curb with no
you know, money, they're getting some money. And what did
pre Trump promise that we were going to clean up
(12:03):
and make things leaner, and that wasn't just the Department
of Defense, that's the Department of State as well, so
that they're more efficient. So I'm okay with this, Jake,
This is fine. You know, of course, I never want
anybody to lose their jobs, but you know, they're going
to have some money on the way out, and of
course if they're retirement age, to let them retire. So
you know, let's make it a better place. And we've
(12:24):
learned too that this agency wasn't always like pro American
some of their initiatives, so so this is good we
got a clean house. I'm okay with it.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Yeah, I mean, honestly, the infiltration in the State Department
among anti American groups is pretty high.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Veronica Kemedi thanks so much for joining us. Have a
great rest of your week, and thank you so much
for waking up crazy early for this show.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
I really appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Thanks Jake. Bye.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
All right, coming up Russias.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Vladimir Putin has some harsh realities he wants Iran's leaders
to accept. He's also going to have to swallow some
horse realities himself, by the way, I'll have the latest
on that. And the publisher of the Washington Post is
really really trying to save that newspaper. It would be
nice if the people working there did too.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
They don't seem to want to.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
That story and more when American Sunrise Early edition comes
right back.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
The flag is moving. Repeat, the flag is moving. I
think it is the first time in this program we've
shown you this live shot from the White House with
the new flag poles.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
And there's been enough of a breeze in DC to
actually get that flag to move. Thank goodness for the
people living there, it maybe won't be so terribly hot
and humid there today some kind of a breeze. Welcome
back to American Sunrise Early edition. I'm Jake Novac. Thank
you so much for joining us. Thank you to the
folks on Getter and Rumble who are already up and
commenting this morning. A lot of Russia news to tell
(13:56):
you about this morning. First, I want to tell you
a little bit ad living this just a little bit,
a little bit of breaking news.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
We're getting reports.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
That President Trump will announce today that he is going
to send Patriot missile batteries to Ukraine to protect that
nation from more missile attacks from Russia. That's a very
big development and certainly indicative of President Trump's frustration with
Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, who seems to be
doing absolutely nothing, in fact, doing less than nothing to
(14:22):
try to stop that war like President Trump wants. So
clearly he's getting frustrated. And we'll get more details on
that in a second. But here's another Russia story. Russia
certainly likes to interfere in the Middle East, and it's
the perfect scenario for them because they can go into
the Middle East, cause chaos, and then get out just
when it feels like it.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
It's been doing this for hundreds of years.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Well, it feels like President Putin in Russia is doing
that again because he's telling Iran, that country that Russia
has been supporting and having a real romance with the
last few years. He is reportedly telling Iran that they
should accept a zero enriched uranium demand from the United States.
Now Iran is furious about this, because you know, they
want their nuclear weapons, and they're trying to push back
(15:04):
on that report. But from what I've seen in the
regular news media over there and from my own sources,
this is true. Russia basically wants to tell Iran to
go away for a while. That's what you get when
you make deals with Russia. Folks, especially in the Middle East,
they come in to cause chaos, and when they get
their chaos jolly's filled, they move out.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Iran's learning that the hard way, all right. Spoiler alert.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
The attempts by top management at the Washington Post to
make that paper's content more balanced and sane, they're not working.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
The publisher, will Lewis is his name.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
He is now just getting as blunt as possible with
the reporters and associate editors who just don't get it.
He just sent them a letter saying, hey, your readership
has been cut in half just in the last couple
of years.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
People don't like this paper.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Look, folks, The Washington Post, believe it or not, especially
during the Obama years, was much more fair and much
more broad based in its cover. It certainly was still
liberal leaning, don't get me wrong, But when Obama was
president and I was running television news shows, I looked
at the Washington Posts a lot more than other newspapers
because I knew I would get some balance there. When
(16:11):
President Trump was elected and Jeff Bezos bought that paper,
it went crazy anti Trump, even more than any other paper.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
And now they are paying the price.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
It is over the top, and any attempt to make
it fair now by Bezos's new guy, will Lewis is
being pushed back upon by the crazed reporters and associate
editors who are at that paper, who are angry about
the paper trying to make some good on some things
like retractions telling people the truth about the Russia Gate hoax.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
They're not buying it. People are really really angry. This
paper's own reporters, unless they replace them all tomorrow, are
going to bring this newspaper down, and it's a shame
because it could be a good newspaper. It is in
the nation's capital.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
If they have their ears open to all the stories
and they are a little bit more fair, it can
be a great newspaper. I used to love it also
because it used to have the most comics of any
newspaper in America when I was a kid. He used
to look to pick it up. But I'd be sorry
to see it go. But I guess they deserve it.
If their own reporters don't want to save it, what
can I do to it?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Help it all? Right?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
If you are stressed out about back taxes, maybe you
miss the April deadline, or your books are a mess,
do not wait. The IRS is cracking down. Penalties add
up fast five percent per month, up to twenty five
percent just for not filing.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
But there is help.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Tax Network USA can take the burden off your shoulders
and stop the spiral before it gets worse. They've helped
thousands of Americans, whether you're an employee, a small business owner,
or haven't filed in years. Messy books, no problem. They've

it up with direct access to powerful IRS programs and
(17:46):
expert negotiators on your side. Tax Network USA knows how
to win. You'll get a free consultation, and if you qualify,
they may even be able to reduce or eliminate what
you owe. More importantly, they'll help protect you from wage
guard nishments or bank levies.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
So don't wait for the next IRS letter.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Call eight hundred nine O five eight thousand, or visit
TNUSA dot com slash rab to talk to a real
expert at Tax Network USA.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Take the pressure off.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Let Tax Network USA handle your tax issues coming up.
They told us the tariffs would bankrupt America and have
us all out on the streets killing each other for
spare cans of potted meat. Okay, I'm overstating it a
little bit, but they did try to scare us. Well,
those doomsayers will they be embarrassed when they check out
how the US Treasury made out last month. Well, I'll
(18:36):
tell you how it did. American Sunrise early edition is
coming right back. That's the last shot of the Capitol Dome. Hey,
(19:05):
they're gonna be busy this week. They're voting on codifying
making it permanent the Doge cuts. That's going to be
a big vote this week. So Washington actually doing stuff
in July that's not very common. And there you see
we showed you the White House a few minutes ago.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Now that's the Capitol Dome. Welcome back to American Sunrise
Early Edition. I'm Jake Novick.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Now let's look at where the markets are going to
open in New York or on your day trading desk,
wherever you are in the world. You don't need to
be in New York anymore. And as you can see,
the futures are lower. They were much lower about twelve
hours ago, three hundred points down of the down.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Now are only down one hundred and twenty two points
in the down.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
That's because traders understand that when President Trump puts new
tariffs in and announces them like he did, it isn't
the end of the world anymore. They didn't realize that
two months ago, but now they get it. You're also
seeing crude oil up almost a dollar. We're getting back
towards that seventy dollars a barrel mark again, and that
has a lot to do with what I talked about.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Just a few minutes ago.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
President Trump expected to announce that the United States will
send Patriot missile batteries to Ukraine, and that makes people
believe there'll be some disruption in.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Russian oil deliveries all over the world.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
So that's putting that up a little bit, not again
below seventy dollars a barrel, which is by the way,
really really historically low, especially when you price in inflation. Now,
let's take a look at bitcoin, because we have a
new all time record. Just as I expected, we are
at the one hundred and twenty one and twenty one
thousand level and change. This is what I told you
on Friday and Thursday. I expected it to get to
(20:33):
one hundred and twenty five in the coming days. There
we are, We're almost there, and we certainly are at
an all time high. Just when they're going to get
back to taris for a second, just when the experts
told us that Trump's tarifs would boost inflation, kill the economy,
and definitely balloon the deficit. That was something they've really
promised us. Well, let's just say those experts.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Are wrong on all counts. They're zero for three.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
We just learned that, in addition to inflation cooling more
than expected the last few months, that's been happening. The
economy is looking good in the April through June quarter.
We're gonna get our first reading on that pretty soon.
They're expecting big growth for that quarter. But the actually,
we also learned that the June budget for the United
States showed a budget surplus. The treasury took in twenty
(21:16):
seven billion dollars in the black. Now that's the second
budget surplus in just the last few months.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
We had a big one in April when.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
The tarris first went into place, And of course a
big reason for those added revenues is the money that
the government's taking in from tarras. Now, look, folks, it
may not continue this way. I understand the misgivings that
a number of trade experts have about the tarifs over
the long term, but that's just it.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
We may not see long term tariffs. It's clear that
these tariffs are getting our foreign trade partners to come
to the table with more favorable terms than they would
have without them, and in the meantime, we're taking in
some money. Period.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
By the way, June is usually not a very good
month for government revenues. It's a couple of months after
taxes are collected, it's usually not a good one. We
haven't had a June in the black, a positive month
of June since twenty seventeen, so eight years.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
This is working at least for now. Let's see what happens.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
I'd love to see some trade deals made so you
don't need to keep the tariffs in place forever. But
as long as they're in place and we're making money
and the economy strong.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Why the heck not? All right?
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Now to the Air India crash probe findings and why
this isn't a business story for us. Listen, Obviously, the
lives that were lost in that crash are the most
important thing. But when that crash happened, you might remember
it was a Boeing seven eighty seven Dreamliner, and people
were worried that Boeing had another mechanical problem to deal
with like they did with the seven thirty seven Max
Jets that had a system that was just too complicated
(22:40):
for a lot of pilots who weren't properly trained.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Well, this is a little bit more scary for the world,
but certainly good news for Boeing. It's looking more and more.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Now from the preliminary report we got over the weekend
that the pilot on the Air India plane either deliberately
or incredibly accidentally shut off the fuel to the jets
engines just after takeoff. This is looking more and more
like it was deliberate. This could be something like the
Egypt air crash you might remember from almost thirty years ago,
when a pilot was apparently committing suicide with a jet
(23:11):
full of passengers and a crash into the Atlantic Ocean.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
This is not definitive.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
We don't know this for sure, but we do know
that those fuel supply buttons switches were switched down, and
Boeing has shown over the weekend that that isn't something
that happens on its own. That either has to be
somebody brushing against it by accident, which would be the
most incredibly insane, incompetent thing I've ever heard over Someone
did it on purpose. So Boeing shares the people with
skin in the game. Remember I always tell you that
(23:36):
people with money in a story are the ones that
you want.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
To watch to see what they say. They bid.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Boeing shares up over the weekend and after market trading
up two percent. That's a lot for Boeing in one day,
they believe this is good news for Boeing because it
looks like it's a pilot situation and not a mechanical thing.
Always have to look at the markets if you can,
to find out what the truth of a story is.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
So that is what happened over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
And now for another speaking of airlines, another reminder of
my Delta decoy role.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
I told you the.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Other day I am naming companies who say that the
tariffs are going to make them completely not profitable. They
don't know what to say about how things are going.
That they were using the tariffs to lower the bar,
to lower the expectations for their earnings reports, so that
when they came out with their quarterly reports they could say, Wow,
we did much better than expected. Go us invest in
(24:24):
our stock.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Now. Delta got away with this last week.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
That's exactly what they did when the tariffs came out,
and last week when they announced better than expected profits
and revenues, their shares one of twelve percent in one day.
That's a tremendous amount for any stock, but especially an
established airline like Delta. So I'm calling it the Delta decoy,
and I'm reminding you of this now because we are
starting a very big earnings week this week tomorrow. All
the big banks JP, Morgan, Chase, Goldman, Stacks, City Group,
(24:51):
they all played that tariff. We don't know how we're
going to make money anymore. A game a couple of
months ago. I'm predicting here now they're all gonna beat expectations.
And let's see if investors pour huge money into those
stocks tomorrow, giving it a little bit of a preview
on that. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, start your engines. It

Speaker 1 (25:49):
A few few.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Weeks ago, I told you here on American Sunrise Early
Edition that Nissan in our Moving America segment that Nissan
may use some of this basically almost down factories in
places like Mississippi to help Honda, because Honda wanted to
get around the tariffs and wants to build more of
their cars and in this case, trucks in the United States.
(26:12):
So Nissan said, hey, we've got some factories, especially the
one in Canton, Mississippi, that's not too busy right now.
How can we work this out? Now we know more
details of this possible deal. It's not one hundred percent
finalized yet, but we do know that Honda, if they
do make this deal, will have Nissan help them build
their ridgeline pickup trucks in that Canton, Mississippi factory. So
(26:33):
this is a case where not only will taris help
get more jobs for Americans working in a truck that
was not made in the United States until now if
this deal goes through, but also it is getting a
chance for Nissan a little bit of a lifeline if
they can make it a Honda's not going to ask
Nissa to do this for free. Nissan's going to provide
this factory and some of its workers and more workers
(26:55):
to Honda for a nice fee.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
This might keep hon a Nissan alive. Lisa and Honda.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Aren't completely merging. The tariffs are bringing them together. And
I told you if folks Taris are all.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
About love, Honda Nissan are going to get together at
least in a little way.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
All right, Elon Musk's Groc. That Groc Xai chap program
had a pretty bad week last week, to say the least,
including somebody found some way to gain that system and
make it post some pro hitler stuff. I kid you not,
it's pretty ugly stuff. But despite that, the folks at
Tesla feel good about getting that bug out of the
system enough to put Xai grock into Tesla cars this week.
(27:32):
It will now be available in your software, So now
you can ask Groc if you should either push your
backseat driver out the window while the car is moving.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Or at a red light.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
Okay, I'm only kidding, but having an AI chatbot, I
guess will help during driving.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Maybe if you get lonely, especially.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
When I say the words loan refinance, you probably think
only about mortgages or maybe a big corporation that has
like a multi billion dollar loan and they want to
refinance it. Well, you may not know this actually a
big market for refinancing auto loans. You can refinance your
auto loan, by the way, if you want to, if
you're eligible. And Chase Bank is getting back into that business.
(28:09):
For years, they got out of it, but who can
blame them. They just decided to get back into the
business and why because of another story we talked about
here last week on Moving America. The number of Americans
with ten year long car loans I call that a
car mortgage is growing. So are the number of Americans
with payments of at least one thousand.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Dollars a month for their car loans.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
So refinancing now is becoming something almost as possible for
car loans as it is with home mortgages, and Chase Bank,
which is a big player, is getting back into it.
I don't love this trend, folks. If you can't afford
to buy your car and with anything less than ten
or seven years to pay it off, it's probably not
a great buy for you.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
But hey, I'm not your grandmother. I'm not scolding you.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
But makes me a little bit nervous, but hey, maybe
you can refinance and save some money. Okay, enough with
the tariffs, enough with software and all that other stuff.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Let's see. So car is burning rubber. Let's look at
some cool stuff.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Here is some video we're seeing now for the first
time of a series of drag races pitting the new
Corvette ZR one against the Lamborghini Revelto in Orlando last week.
The Corvette didn't win every one of these races, but
it won a number of them, and thus it matches
up very favorably with a much more expensive that much
more expensive Lamborghini. That Lamborghini goes for well over six
(29:24):
hundred thousand dollars, the Corvette is going the new Corvette's
going to be between two hundred and I think two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, so it's a bargain. By
the way, there are going to be more drag races
in the coming days pitting that Corvette against the poorchut
nine to eleven Turbo, a Tesla Model s Platt and
a McLaren seven to twenty s. So keep it up, Corvette,
not doing a bad job there at all.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Coming up.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
The Man of the People hoax has been blown up
several times already when it comes to New York maryl
candidate Zara Mamdani. But now we know the reality is
even worse, I'll explain.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
And the Air.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
India crash that I told you about could have been
a total disaster for Boeing, But it's still looking like
yet another example of another prob problem in all of aviation,
pilot mental health care. What are we doing about that?
We'll talk about that when.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
America's Sunrise Early edition comes right back.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
It's Monday, July fourteenth. Here this morning's top stories. California
Governor Gavin Newsom can't stop doubling and tripling down on
his fight.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
For illegal aliens.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Now he's even bashing Vice President Advance and his young
family while they visit Disneyland. Is there anything Newsome won't
do to protect this cheap illegal labor scam for him
and his shady donors? Hey, I thought the tarrifs we're
gonna crash the economy and blow up the deficit. Nope,
wait until you hear what the final financial numbers for
(30:58):
June look like.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Not so bad.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
The probe into that terrible Air India jet crash last
month has a damning preliminary conclusion, but it does seem
to leave one key American company off the hook, but
not passengers.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
And what did President Trump do.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
On the one year anniversary of the assassination attempt against him,
he went right out in front of the public and in
Jersey no less, this time acting as a host for
a major World Cup soccer championship and proving that America
does welcome legal foreigners all the time. American Sunrise Early
Edition continues. Now, welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition.
(31:40):
It is Monday, but we're going to get through it together.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
I'm Jake Novak. Thank you so much for joining me.
Thank you so much to those of.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
You in the Ghetter and the rumblechats you are often
running on Monday. You are not having a slow Monday
morning on those platforms, checking out all of your comments there.
Helping me get through this Monday situation is pilot and
CEO of Hopscotch Air Andrew Schmurt. And Andrew, you know,
I gotta say this, This preliminary report about the Air
India crash seems to me a lot like that Egypt
(32:09):
Air crash. And I think we both covered back when
we were working in local news in New York when
you had that Egypt Air pilot who basically committed suicide
and put that jet into the Atlantic Ocean. It's it's
looking like this, or at the very least, andrew a
very incompetent pilot who somehow switched down the fuel the
fuel gauge buttons and cut off fuel to the engine.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
That's what the preliminary report looks like.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Listen, you're the pilot, what does it look like to you?
Speaker 5 (32:36):
You know, First, I want to start by saying, this
is a reason why we should never listen to these
so cold YouTube investigators who look at some grainy video
of the flight and make conclusions about what happened, because
those comments are almost always wrong. Now, this is just
a preliminary report that's out by the Indian investigators that
(32:56):
say these fuel switches, which are located below the throttle
on the Dreamer were switched off prior to the plane
crashing and confusion in the cockpit about what happened. It
does not appear that this could be done accidentally. However,
Boeing and the FAA did issue an advisory a number
of years ago that aircraft operators should check these fields
(33:17):
cut off switches. So this leads to the questions about
what the pilots did, why they did this, and how
they did this. And obviously it is leading to us
going into a dark space that maybe possibly this was
pilot's suicide. Though we should not throw the pilots and
the crew under the bus just yet. The investigation is complicated,
(33:38):
will take a long time to look at. But that
is leading some people to that conclusion, which raises the
issue of mental illness. And the FA has been dealing
with this issue for a number of decades, but the
last few years the FA has started to make some progress.
I think it's slow progress in addressing mental illness.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
Yeah, I mean, first of all, Andrew, I appreciate your caution.
You're absolutely right to remind me and everyone else. And
again I listen. I'm trying to be as cautious as possible, but.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
I also like to get to the bottom of things,
and I do again I repeat my disclaimer that this
is what it looks like for now, could change. And
I'm certainly not the aviation expert. But what I do
know and what is not project you know, what is
not really guesswork is the idea that we do probably
need some better mental health care screening for pilots. I
(34:28):
don't know what the regular procedures are in any given country.
I assume there's we know that there's fitness tests for
our pilots here in the United States, and I'm sure
that most countries do something along those lines. But I
would guess that there may be need to be a
little bit more mental health screening as well. Probably not
a bad idea to add it, even though still things
could slip through the cracks. Any thoughts andrew on maybe
(34:50):
what you would like to see or what already? What's
what's already in place for some of these pilots. Do
they have like a mental health care screening regularly?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Do you know about that?
Speaker 5 (34:59):
Yes, the un States, the FA has been moving to
make changes. You know, mental illness is not like a
typical disease where it's either one or zero, so you
have to kind of evaluate further. In the past, pilots
who sought commercial pilots who sought psychiatric help went to
see a psychiatrist, maybe got some medication, were grounded, so
that led people to either a not seek help, which
(35:21):
is not good, or lie about it to the government,
which is also not good. The FA has made changes,
slow changes in this process that if you do need
help and seek help, maybe use some antidepressants, they will
clear you to continue flying after a number of protocols. However,
that message has been slow to get out to a
pilot community that has typically been very reticent of any
(35:45):
interaction with the government because they fear for their livelihoods.
So the FAA has made progress in this, I don't
think the progress has been significant enough because mental health
issues have been a problem for years. They have, as
we have seen, brought down number of planes, not many,
it's very rare, but over the last decade. I think
(36:06):
we still need to make more progress in this. But
I think the FAS Flight Surgeon Federal Flight Surgeon or
recent appointee over the past I think five or six
years she's been in the job, has done a number
of good things in this area, but more needs to
be done, you know. Again, and their wines, of course,
have their own standards.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Yeah, really heartbreaking for people if this is what turned out. Andrew,
let's talk about something on the brighter side. Delta Airlines
now I call it the Delta decoy. I think they
were deliberately underpromising and over delivering when they were talking
about the tariffs and saying, oh, he's gotta go terrible
and then, of course they had these great results last week.
I'm not talking about the Wall Street stuff.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Now, let's talk about this from a point of view
of the health of the aviation industry. Does Delta's report
make you feel confident about airline demand even through these
still somewhat uncertain times.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
It makes me feel confident about Delta. Delta is one
of the best run airlines in the United States. They've
done a terrific job of managing the softness in travel demand.
We've seen it at Hopscotch by the way. There is
a softness, but that softness is starting to resolve itself.
I think as people are feeling more confident about the economy.
People were spooked in the spring. They didn't travel. They
(37:20):
didn't travel there for leisure, and the airlines make most
of their money from leisure travel. But I think that
is starting to turn around. What a Delta has certainly
reported is significant and good news for the airline industry.
But it goes back to my basic point. You could
be to either be up market in the business or
down market in the business. You can either be Delta
or you could be frontier airlines. When you're stuck in
(37:42):
the muddy middle. That's where the problems occur when people
don't know what your product is.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
All right, Andrew, The viewers may not be aware that
before you took to the skies, you were down here
on earth, on the gritty New York City streets as
a reporter doing local news.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
You saw it all. We got to ask you about
the New York City situation. What's your take on this
mayor's race? Zorah on Mamdannie, the Communist Democrat nominee for mayor,
the scramble to try to get Eric Adams enough money
in support or find one candidate to everyone unite around.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
To defeat Mom Donnie? Is this a shock to you?
Speaker 2 (38:18):
I mean it's a different New York than the one
that we covered together when we were doing local news,
isn't it?
Speaker 1 (38:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (38:24):
You know, New York politics never fails to surprise me.
There is a huge enthusiasm gap. No one is enthusiastic
or was enthusiastic about Andrew Bombol. You did not see
rallies and thousands of people show up. Eric Adams probably
less enthusiastic, though now there's some momentum getting behind Eric.
And you know, you and I when we work back
(38:45):
in New York one. I know, I spoke to an
interview Curtis Sliwa a number of times. He's a great
interview He's a lot of fun to talk to. But
he really doesn't have a shot here. So the candidates
do need to come together and figure out what to
do about Mandani. I've heard I'm called a progressive, and
I don't like that because I have some progressive ideas.
I think progressive ideas sometimes have a legitimate place, certainly
(39:07):
in New York City. But he is far beyond the
pale of any progressive policies, and he's radical, and he
does not have the background to deliver any of these promises.
He's promising everything the whole world to everybody. He will fail,
and that's outside of his non political views, his anti
(39:29):
Israel views, his anti police views. He has a lot
of cleaning up to do, and I fear that the
media is going to kind of accept said that cleaning
up and not really give him the hard look that
he needs.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Yeah, you know, I think he can also back me
up on this statement.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
A lot of people have asked me, and they probably
have asked you as well, how can a city that
went through nine to eleven. Elect the guy who says
globalized the Antifada and seems friendly to loss. And I
tell them, you know, nine to eleven was almost twenty
four years ago. I would venture to say that maybe
thirty to forty percent the population of New York today,
the voting population, wasn't even living here on September eleventh, nine,
(40:06):
at two thousand and one.
Speaker 5 (40:07):
I wonder, if you see I do I do they
weren't living here, or they weren't born at the time.
It's hard to imagine. We're kind of old guys now
we remember that, and I think that we need to
figure out a way to remind people, or to educate
people about the dangers of that rhetoric. You could accept
progress of policies wherever they take, you give it a shot.
(40:29):
But this individual, in particular, I think is a danger
to the city. Unfortunately, we have failed candidates or flawed
candidates all around him, not able to coalesce and come
up with somebody who could possibly beat them.
Speaker 1 (40:42):
Yeah. Well, again, it's an interesting situation.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
I got to tell you, I'm looking at the chessboard, Andrew,
and it just doesn't look like they're going to be
able to beat this guy, Mom, Donnie, not because he's
so great, but just because these candidates running against are
not strong. And I don't think again you can see
why people wouldn't like them. Just don't see how even
with all of them drop out except for one, I
still think it's going to be a heavy lift. Andrew Schmertz,
thank you so much for joining us. Stay safe in
(41:07):
the skies.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
Have a great rest of your week, you two, Jake,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Okay, coming up, President Trump marked the one year anniversary
of the attempted assassination against him by being even more out.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
In front with the public than usual.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
David Brody and I will talk about the dual importance
of that event yesterday when American Sunrise Early Edition continues.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
Washington, d C.
Speaker 5 (41:59):
What a Oh.
Speaker 6 (42:00):
By the way, I'm not Jake Novak, I'm David Brody.
I'm just a poor man's Jake Novak.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
And that's actually accurate. He should be with us in
just a little bit. I don't know. Maybe he's gone
a wall. I don't know.
Speaker 6 (42:13):
We're looking into it as we speak. One of the things,
by the way, that he mentioned one of the things,
this is what we were going to talk about, and
he was going to talk about it with me, but
why not just more airtime for me, I'll talk about it.
How about President Trump yesterday at the FIFA World Cup
there out in Jersey, and there he is, and Jake,
I believe we have you back.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
You want to take it from here? Hello?
Speaker 2 (42:35):
Oh yeah, no, thank you so much, David. Sorry about
that little bit of audio problems for me, not you. Look,
you know, I wanted to talk about the dual importance
of this.
Speaker 1 (42:44):
Look.
Speaker 2 (42:45):
Obviously, him going out in front of public, in front
of eighty six thousand plus on the one year anniversary
of an assassination attempt at a.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
Rally, shows he's not going to be hide.
Speaker 2 (42:54):
He's not gonna hide, He's not going to be just
a shrinking flower. But there's another part of this, David
that I think people need to remember. The President of
the United States acts as also the head of state.
We don't have a king in this country. We don't
have It's not like we have a separate position. It's
not like we have the I think it's called the
Governor General or something like that in Canada. We don't
have that. It has to be done by the president.
(43:17):
He has to do the ribbon cuttings. He has to
do things like that. And we are here a year
before the major World Cup, the real World Cup tournament
coming to the United States. We have the Olympics coming
up in three years. This president has to show foreign investors,
foreign tourists, foreign countries that as long as you do
things legally, we welcome you in this country. There's this
whole lie that I think the rest of the world's
(43:37):
being told that we don't like foreigners and we want
to close our It's not true. As long as you're legal,
and especially if you're here to buy a ticket and
pay twelve bucks for a beer, please join us, Please
join us in America.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
And it's important for President Trump to show up at
these kinds of things.
Speaker 6 (43:51):
I mean, such a stute observation. I feel like a
broken record with you, Jake, I'm always going such in
a stute observation. I mean, you say it all the time.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
It's true.
Speaker 6 (43:58):
I mean, you're absolutely right. And listen, Let's remember Trump
knows visuals and it's important. Visuals are important. So for
him to be on stage, which by the way, I
have some few things to say about that, which is hilarious.
But him being on stage hilarious, not me saying it
is hilarious, but for him being on stage there in
(44:18):
an international surrounding where he's taking all that criticism, we
should not be lost. It should not be lost on
us that the visuals matter here. And by the way,
let me just say something about President Trump on stage
like that. First of all, I mean talk about hutzba.
I mean this guy right A year later and all
of a sudden he's in an open air stadium, eighty.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
Thousand whatever it is people there. Let me guess, Jake.
Speaker 6 (44:41):
I haven't done a survey, but my guess is not
everybody in that open air stadium was a big fan
of President Trump, if you know what I'm saying, as
it relates to international soccer audiences. Okay, so that's a risk,
and it's a big risk. And he didn't just do
it in an arena. He did in an open air stadium.
Beyond all of that, to me, what's interesting seed also
here is that Trump loves to be associated with winners.
Speaker 1 (45:04):
He is a winner himself.
Speaker 6 (45:06):
He saw the moment too, and you know what for
him to be on stage with Chelsea there and kind
of raising you know, and he didn't raise the trophy.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
But the point is he was part of that moment.
Speaker 6 (45:16):
It was kind of it was kind of funny. Actually,
it was like President Trump like was the president of
the club, you know, and he was. He was taking
part in the victory celebration, which of course, obviously he
didn't want to upstage anybody, even though the liberal media
would love.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
To say he did, but he didn't.
Speaker 6 (45:29):
The point is is that he knows moments, and he
understood that was not only a moment visually, but also
a moment significantly, like you said, as it relates to
the economic impact of what that visual would mean, because
everything ultimately is kind of like a six degrees of
separation regarding Kevin Bacon, except this time, Kevin Bacon is
the actual Bacon, the money.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
You know, Listen, the economic thing is important. Let's not forget.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
The United States did host the World Cup in nineteen
ninety four, and I have to tell you, right, there
were a lot of empty stadiums for a lot of
those matches, not for the final, not for the final
at the Rose Bowl that they sold out. Yes, there
were a number of well attended events, but for there
were a lot of empty stadiums. And President Trump doesn't
want that. He wants to show the world that we
have the fans, and more importantly, the fans from the
(46:17):
foreign countries who are going to come and watch these
matches will be welcome here. They're going to have a
good time here, and we're going to fill up these
stadiums these times. This time, this wasn't even an event
that I even knew existed. I didn't know FIFA had
a World Cup for clubs, you know, for actual professional teams.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
I think this is a new thing.
Speaker 2 (46:32):
But hey, we filled an eighty six thousand seat stadium,
which I called the Trail of Tears because I'm a
Jet season ticket holder.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
But hey, they filled it up and it was a
good moment.
Speaker 2 (46:41):
And look President Trump in that suit in the red
tie with all those guys in the socker jersey. It
was a funny picture, I thought for a second, but
you know what, You're right, he didn't upstage them. He
went to the back as soon as he got that
one picture. To David Brody, I'm going to be joining
you for the next two hours. Thanks for joining me
on early edition.
Speaker 1 (46:56):
You got more of me coming up. Stay with us.
Ahead on an American Sunrise early edition.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
California Governor Gavin Newsom can't stop doubling and tripling down
on a fite for illegal aliens. Now he's even bashing
Vice President Vance and his young family while they visit Disneyland.
Is there anything Newsome won't do to protect this cheap
illegal labor scam for him and his shady donors. Is
(00:27):
Team Trump still warring over the Epstein case mess or
is there more infighting to go? FBI Director Cash Betel,
for one, wants everyone to stop speculating. Hey, I thought
the tyrifts were going to crash the economy and blow
up the deficit. Nope, wait until you hear what the
final financial numbers for June look like. The probe into
(00:51):
that terrible Air India jet crash last month has a
damning preliminary conclusion, but it does seem to leave one
key American company off the hook. And what did President
Trump do on the one year anniversary of the assassination
attempt against him? He went right out in front of
the public, end, this time acting as a major host
(01:12):
for a major World Cup soccer championship and proving that
America welcomes legal foreigners all the time.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
American Sunrise Early Edition begins now.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, freedom,
and the values that built this nation takes centers to.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Your good, thieves and bad deeds. That's how we're gonna
judge you.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Join host Jake Novak because he breaks down the stories
that matter.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
He will be letting the public know regularly what we
have found.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Novak starts now.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
It's a Monday here. Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition.
I'm Jay Novec.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Thank you so much for joining us.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I am here with you all the way through ten
am today, so get yourself ready's passing your seatbelts. It's
gonna be fun because I'm also going to be joining
the American Sunrise crew is starting at eight, but first
we have American Sunrise Early Edition. We do things a
little bit differently here. Joining me now to help me
do all that this morning is Veronica Kennedy. She is
the host of Veronica Live. She's also an Air Force
veterans who do not mess with her. Hey, Veronica, I'd
(02:24):
like your thoughts on I'd like your thoughts on how
President Trump marked that one year anniversary of the assassination
attempting Butler. Did he stay at home in his basement?
Did he go to some kind of did he say quietly? No,
He went to this event with eighty six thousand people.
I mean he went more out in front and center
than he even did at some of his rallies. At
(02:45):
this event, the FIFA, a championship event in New Jersey,
a state which isn't exactly one hundred percent pro Trump.
Actually we might flip that state. The Republicans might in
November for governor. So you know, keep your fingers crossed
for those of you who want to see that happen.
But Veronica, this is not This is not a withering wallflower,
is it.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
No. Trump has always been our energizer bunny for years, Jake.
You know that. And you know we marked the one
year anniversary yesterday and he's out in front. You know,
everybody was hooting and hollering USA Milania Trump with their
Christian do your glasses looked spectacular, you know. And I
can't believe it's been a year. And you know that
a year ago, when that assassination happened, I had a
(03:27):
lot of friends that were on the fence when it
came to voting for Trump, and that assassination attempt actually
converted them to Trumper. So I'm so proud that he
has not stopped and he continues to fight for America.
And he loves sports, Jake, he loves sports.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
He does.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
And I think, you know, one of the things I
made a point yesterday because we did some live coverage
of this event right when we weren't allowed to show
the soccer match. God forbid, we infringe on those sports
writs and copyrights and things like that. But we were
able to go live with Brian Glenn right in the
middle of the stadium as the match ended. We showed
the trophy ceremony and all that kind of stuff. And
one of the things that I wanted to make a
(04:05):
point about was, you know, in the United States, we
don't have a prime minister and a president or a
king or something who would do does the ribbon cuttings,
does the head of state stuff, you know, showing up
to these big events, so our president has to do
them if the president just so chooses, and President Trump
did that. I mean, soccer isn't the craziest thing. I'm
sure that soccer isn't the number one sport choice of
(04:26):
most of the Trump voters out there, but this is
a huge event for the United States. We have the
real World Cup, the regular World Cup tournament coming here
next year, and the President is trying to promote American business,
American hospitality, all the things that will help our economy
next year.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
We also have the Olympics coming up in three years.
This is his job.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
And the idea that this country isn't welcoming and this
is our next topic, Veronica.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
The idea of this country is not welcoming.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
To legal foreigners and legal tourists is just ludicrous. But
I still think the number one issue in America is
illegal immigration. And the nastiness in California and the hardiness
in la specifically seemed to know no bounds of Veronica.
In addition to Governor Gavin Newsom attacking Vice President Vance
and his young children online yesterday as they visited Disneyland,
(05:10):
Newsom made a comment about how Disneyland couldn't stay open
without illegal aliens, which I don't see how that's necessarily true.
But even if it were true, that's not christ Vice
President Vance's fault. That's Disneyland's fault. But anyway, on top
of that, now, Veronica, you have Mayor Karen Bass of
LA pledging to deliver deliver cash payments to illegal aliens
(05:31):
because you know they might be afraid to go out
now because they might get nabbed by ice. So I
guess she's gonna do curbside service and give these people cash.
Is there no end, Veronica, to the to the insanity
of these politicians.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
This makes no sense.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
She's like the number one cheerleader for Angelean she calls them,
and these are illegal aliens. I mean, California is a mess,
you know, especially LA has about fifty eight thousand homeless
to boot, so they're not doing well. And of course
Gavin Newson News when we had the pot bust last week,
you know, he was in California or not California, excuse me,
(06:05):
South Carolina running for president because he's the you know,
the candidate that will never go away and wants to
be president. He's not qualified, mister Hairgel. He needs to
concentrate on his state. And it's been a mess from
fires to now this, you know, arresting three hundred illegals
at this legal pot farm. And I learned a lot
(06:25):
about pot. Jane Jake. There's thirty thirty eight percent of
people buy legal pot in California, but the rest are
buying it from like Chinese cartels and Mexican cartels selling
it in California. And they've got twenty percent potheads out
in California. So that state is a is a complete cluster.
And Newsome, you know, he just wants to be president,
(06:47):
thinks he's somebody, but his state's falling apart. And of
course on X he put. You know, he's still mad
that Trump's got five thousand National Guard out there, and
so he's trolling Vance and Trump to get rid of
the Guard. But why are they out there? You know,
here we had this farm bust and people knew that
they were coming. You know, they arrested the three hundred folks.
There was children, ten underage children that were on site.
(07:12):
I mean, this is an embarrassment to California. And you know,
I say this all the time. I've said it for years.
I want legal immigrants that are vetted and then they
could come work with worker visas. That's how I roll
and California could lead the way. If Newsom, you know,
had some manhood.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah, well, I think he's also getting paid off at Veronica.
That's really the only explanation. The polls all show tremendous
support for deporting all illegal aliens. Even the New York
Times poll showed a more than ten percentage point lead
in a poll for all Americans saying they completely want
every illegal deported, and on top of that, for them
to be working children in plotforms. And one thing he
(07:52):
didn't mention Veronica these platforms have been found to be
using an overwhelming amount of pesticide, more than they're legally
allowed to. It was actually not legal pot for those
who think it is. And that's the La Times that
reported that, not some right wing newspaper. All right, let's
talk about another controversy of Verron. Could count me among
the many Americans who really are not satisfied with what
(08:14):
still looks like some kind of cover up or at
least a very badly handled situation with this Jeffrey Epstein case.
But this weekend was full of rumors about big time
defections in the administration. First they said Cash Bettel, the
FBI director, was going to leave. They're still saying that
Dan Bongino, one of his top aids that the FBI
is going to leave. Look Like I said, I'm not
(08:34):
satisfied with where this controversy is shaking out, But are
you willing to give the Trump administration a little bit
more slack or latitude before people start saying, hey, you know,
the whole thing is falling apart.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I am.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I would like to hear more about this Epstein case,
but with the caveat that, I know that we're probably
not going to get real punishment on any of the
people responsible, not because of President Trump or any president beforehim,
but just because these people can easily leave the jurisdiction,
fly off to another crazy island somewhere.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Well, you know, there's definitely something going on. And you know,
I'm maga and I talked to a bunch of my
mega influencers this weekend and they are all mega. We
are in this. This is a marriage. You know. I
worked for the Trump campaign in twenty fifteen for more
than a year to get him elected, and I'm still
gonna be maga. I don't care if Elon Musk starts
an America's Party. I'm not jumping ship. Everything's not going
(09:27):
to be perfect in this administration, but and so far
it's gone pretty well. I am concerned because all weekend
long we heard that bon Bongino potentially was gonna want
to resign. Cash Ptel came out and said that he's
sticking with Trump, and then of course Trump came out
and said that Bondi's doing a great job. I think
she overshot with all of her media appearances, and that
(09:50):
was one of the things. Americans want to close borders,
and then we want we want to know what's happened.
Who's on the Epstein list, And you know, when you're
talking a thousand children that were hurt and and all
these terrible things that happened to that there's got to
be some accountability. So you got to throw us a bone. Jake.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Yeah, I agree, and I think that there might be
something coming. But you're right.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I mean, look, this doesn't you know there are two
things can be true at the same time. There can
be a misstep by people in this administration, and you
can still support the administration overall because you're able to
look at it because you understand math and you know
that when things work out or the things that you
like happening, nine times out of ten, the tenth thing
is not something worth bolting over. But Veronica, there are
some people who definitely are leaving the administration. That would
(10:35):
be the thirteen hundred workers at the State Department who
got laid off all product really, and I don't mean
to laugh. I don't need to laugh with people losing
their jobs, but you know what you make. There's a
couple of points to make here. First of all, the
State Department's staff size since the beginning of the Obama
administration has ballooned by tens of thousands, so this is
really just a drop in the bucket. That's one thing
(10:56):
for people who say, oh, the State Department won't be
able to function anymore. And second of all, in the
private sector, just the last month alone, we had tens
of thousands of layoffs at major companies, nine thousand at Microsoft.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
A loan, Welcome to the world. The rest of us
live in. Federal workers, you.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Don't deserve a lower bar than the rest of us,
But they seem to demand it, don't.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
They, Veronica.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
They do. You know. I was in the military for
twenty years and I often found that federal workers it
was a welfare system because when they were bad, you
couldn't fire them. Of course, there's great workers, and you know,
Secretary of Rubio said, this is a cost saving initiative.
All of the workers that are being let go are
in America. So we've got eleven hundred civil service workers
(11:41):
and about two hundred and fifty Foreign service workers. And
you know, the Foreign service officers are going to get
one hundred twenty days of pay and the Federal service
workers are going to get sixty days of pay. So
it's not like they're kicked to the curb with no
you know, money, they're getting some money. And what did
pre Trump promise that we were going to clean up
(12:03):
and make things leaner, and that wasn't just the Department
of Defense, that's the Department of State as well, so
that they're more efficient. So I'm okay with this, Jake,
This is fine. You know, of course, I never want
anybody to lose their jobs, but you know, they're going
to have some money on the way out, and of
course if they're retirement age, to let them retire. So
you know, let's make it a better place. And we've
(12:24):
learned too that this agency wasn't always like pro American
some of their initiatives, so so this is good we
got a clean house. I'm okay with it.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Yeah, I mean, honestly, the infiltration in the State Department
among anti American groups is pretty high.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Veronica Kemedi thanks so much for joining us. Have a
great rest of your week, and thank you so much
for waking up crazy early for this show.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
I really appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Thanks Jake. Bye.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
All right, coming up Russias.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Vladimir Putin has some harsh realities he wants Iran's leaders
to accept. He's also going to have to swallow some
horse realities himself, by the way, I'll have the latest
on that. And the publisher of the Washington Post is
really really trying to save that newspaper. It would be
nice if the people working there did too.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
They don't seem to want to.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
That story and more when American Sunrise Early edition comes
right back.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
The flag is moving. Repeat, the flag is moving. I
think it is the first time in this program we've
shown you this live shot from the White House with
the new flag poles.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
And there's been enough of a breeze in DC to
actually get that flag to move. Thank goodness for the
people living there, it maybe won't be so terribly hot
and humid there today some kind of a breeze. Welcome
back to American Sunrise Early edition. I'm Jake Novac. Thank
you so much for joining us. Thank you to the
folks on Getter and Rumble who are already up and
commenting this morning. A lot of Russia news to tell
(13:56):
you about this morning. First, I want to tell you
a little bit ad living this just a little bit,
a little bit of breaking news.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
We're getting reports.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
That President Trump will announce today that he is going
to send Patriot missile batteries to Ukraine to protect that
nation from more missile attacks from Russia. That's a very
big development and certainly indicative of President Trump's frustration with
Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, who seems to be
doing absolutely nothing, in fact, doing less than nothing to
(14:22):
try to stop that war like President Trump wants. So
clearly he's getting frustrated. And we'll get more details on
that in a second. But here's another Russia story. Russia
certainly likes to interfere in the Middle East, and it's
the perfect scenario for them because they can go into
the Middle East, cause chaos, and then get out just
when it feels like it.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
It's been doing this for hundreds of years.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Well, it feels like President Putin in Russia is doing
that again because he's telling Iran, that country that Russia
has been supporting and having a real romance with the
last few years. He is reportedly telling Iran that they
should accept a zero enriched uranium demand from the United States.
Now Iran is furious about this, because you know, they
want their nuclear weapons, and they're trying to push back
(15:04):
on that report. But from what I've seen in the
regular news media over there and from my own sources,
this is true. Russia basically wants to tell Iran to
go away for a while. That's what you get when
you make deals with Russia. Folks, especially in the Middle East,
they come in to cause chaos, and when they get
their chaos jolly's filled, they move out.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Iran's learning that the hard way, all right. Spoiler alert.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
The attempts by top management at the Washington Post to
make that paper's content more balanced and sane, they're not working.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
The publisher, will Lewis is his name.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
He is now just getting as blunt as possible with
the reporters and associate editors who just don't get it.
He just sent them a letter saying, hey, your readership
has been cut in half just in the last couple
of years.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
People don't like this paper.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Look, folks, The Washington Post, believe it or not, especially
during the Obama years, was much more fair and much
more broad based in its cover. It certainly was still
liberal leaning, don't get me wrong, But when Obama was
president and I was running television news shows, I looked
at the Washington Posts a lot more than other newspapers
because I knew I would get some balance there. When
(16:11):
President Trump was elected and Jeff Bezos bought that paper,
it went crazy anti Trump, even more than any other paper.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
And now they are paying the price.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
It is over the top, and any attempt to make
it fair now by Bezos's new guy, will Lewis is
being pushed back upon by the crazed reporters and associate
editors who are at that paper, who are angry about
the paper trying to make some good on some things
like retractions telling people the truth about the Russia Gate hoax.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
They're not buying it. People are really really angry. This
paper's own reporters, unless they replace them all tomorrow, are
going to bring this newspaper down, and it's a shame
because it could be a good newspaper. It is in
the nation's capital.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
If they have their ears open to all the stories
and they are a little bit more fair, it can
be a great newspaper. I used to love it also
because it used to have the most comics of any
newspaper in America when I was a kid. He used
to look to pick it up. But I'd be sorry
to see it go. But I guess they deserve it.
If their own reporters don't want to save it, what
can I do to it?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Help it all? Right?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
If you are stressed out about back taxes, maybe you
miss the April deadline, or your books are a mess,
do not wait. The IRS is cracking down. Penalties add
up fast five percent per month, up to twenty five
percent just for not filing.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
But there is help.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Tax Network USA can take the burden off your shoulders
and stop the spiral before it gets worse. They've helped
thousands of Americans, whether you're an employee, a small business owner,
or haven't filed in years. Messy books, no problem. They've

it up with direct access to powerful IRS programs and
(17:46):

to win. You'll get a free consultation, and if you qualify,
they may even be able to reduce or eliminate what
you owe. More importantly, they'll help protect you from wage
guard nishments or bank levies.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
So don't wait for the next IRS letter.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Call eight hundred nine O five eight thousand, or visit
TNUSA dot com slash rab to talk to a real
expert at Tax Network USA.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Take the pressure off.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Let Tax Network USA handle your tax issues coming up.
They told us the tariffs would bankrupt America and have
us all out on the streets killing each other for
spare cans of potted meat. Okay, I'm overstating it a
little bit, but they did try to scare us. Well,
those doomsayers will they be embarrassed when they check out
how the US Treasury made out last month. Well, I'll
(18:36):
tell you how it did. American Sunrise early edition is
coming right back. That's the last shot of the Capitol Dome. Hey,
(19:05):
they're gonna be busy this week. They're voting on codifying
making it permanent the Doge cuts. That's going to be
a big vote this week. So Washington actually doing stuff
in July that's not very common. And there you see
we showed you the White House a few minutes ago.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Now that's the Capitol Dome. Welcome back to American Sunrise
Early Edition. I'm Jake Novick.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Now let's look at where the markets are going to
open in New York or on your day trading desk,
wherever you are in the world. You don't need to
be in New York anymore. And as you can see,
the futures are lower. They were much lower about twelve
hours ago, three hundred points down of the down.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Now are only down one hundred and twenty two points
in the down.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
That's because traders understand that when President Trump puts new
tariffs in and announces them like he did, it isn't
the end of the world anymore. They didn't realize that
two months ago, but now they get it. You're also
seeing crude oil up almost a dollar. We're getting back
towards that seventy dollars a barrel mark again, and that
has a lot to do with what I talked about.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Just a few minutes ago.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
President Trump expected to announce that the United States will
send Patriot missile batteries to Ukraine, and that makes people
believe there'll be some disruption in.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Russian oil deliveries all over the world.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
So that's putting that up a little bit, not again
below seventy dollars a barrel, which is by the way,
really really historically low, especially when you price in inflation. Now,
let's take a look at bitcoin, because we have a
new all time record. Just as I expected, we are
at the one hundred and twenty one and twenty one
thousand level and change. This is what I told you
on Friday and Thursday. I expected it to get to
(20:33):
one hundred and twenty five in the coming days. There
we are, We're almost there, and we certainly are at
an all time high. Just when they're going to get
back to taris for a second, just when the experts
told us that Trump's tarifs would boost inflation, kill the economy,
and definitely balloon the deficit. That was something they've really
promised us. Well, let's just say those experts.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Are wrong on all counts. They're zero for three.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
We just learned that, in addition to inflation cooling more
than expected the last few months, that's been happening. The
economy is looking good in the April through June quarter.
We're gonna get our first reading on that pretty soon.
They're expecting big growth for that quarter. But the actually,
we also learned that the June budget for the United
States showed a budget surplus. The treasury took in twenty
(21:16):
seven billion dollars in the black. Now that's the second
budget surplus in just the last few months.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
We had a big one in April when.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
The tarris first went into place, And of course a
big reason for those added revenues is the money that
the government's taking in from tarras. Now, look, folks, it
may not continue this way. I understand the misgivings that
a number of trade experts have about the tarifs over
the long term, but that's just it.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
We may not see long term tariffs. It's clear that
these tariffs are getting our foreign trade partners to come
to the table with more favorable terms than they would
have without them, and in the meantime, we're taking in
some money. Period.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
By the way, June is usually not a very good
month for government revenues. It's a couple of months after
taxes are collected, it's usually not a good one. We
haven't had a June in the black, a positive month
of June since twenty seventeen, so eight years.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
This is working at least for now. Let's see what happens.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
I'd love to see some trade deals made so you
don't need to keep the tariffs in place forever. But
as long as they're in place and we're making money
and the economy strong.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Why the heck not? All right?
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Now to the Air India crash probe findings and why
this isn't a business story for us. Listen, Obviously, the
lives that were lost in that crash are the most
important thing. But when that crash happened, you might remember
it was a Boeing seven eighty seven Dreamliner, and people
were worried that Boeing had another mechanical problem to deal
with like they did with the seven thirty seven Max
Jets that had a system that was just too complicated
(22:40):
for a lot of pilots who weren't properly trained.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Well, this is a little bit more scary for the world,
but certainly good news for Boeing. It's looking more and more.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Now from the preliminary report we got over the weekend
that the pilot on the Air India plane either deliberately
or incredibly accidentally shut off the fuel to the jets
engines just after takeoff. This is looking more and more
like it was deliberate. This could be something like the
Egypt air crash you might remember from almost thirty years ago,
when a pilot was apparently committing suicide with a jet
(23:11):
full of passengers and a crash into the Atlantic Ocean.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
This is not definitive.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
We don't know this for sure, but we do know
that those fuel supply buttons switches were switched down, and
Boeing has shown over the weekend that that isn't something
that happens on its own. That either has to be
somebody brushing against it by accident, which would be the
most incredibly insane, incompetent thing I've ever heard over Someone
did it on purpose. So Boeing shares the people with
skin in the game. Remember I always tell you that
(23:36):
people with money in a story are the ones that
you want.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
To watch to see what they say. They bid.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Boeing shares up over the weekend and after market trading
up two percent. That's a lot for Boeing in one day,
they believe this is good news for Boeing because it
looks like it's a pilot situation and not a mechanical thing.
Always have to look at the markets if you can,
to find out what the truth of a story is.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
So that is what happened over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
And now for another speaking of airlines, another reminder of
my Delta decoy role.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
I told you the.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Other day I am naming companies who say that the
tariffs are going to make them completely not profitable. They
don't know what to say about how things are going.
That they were using the tariffs to lower the bar,
to lower the expectations for their earnings reports, so that
when they came out with their quarterly reports they could say, Wow,
we did much better than expected. Go us invest in
(24:24):
our stock.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Now. Delta got away with this last week.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
That's exactly what they did when the tariffs came out,
and last week when they announced better than expected profits
and revenues, their shares one of twelve percent in one day.
That's a tremendous amount for any stock, but especially an
established airline like Delta. So I'm calling it the Delta decoy,
and I'm reminding you of this now because we are
starting a very big earnings week this week tomorrow. All
the big banks JP, Morgan, Chase, Goldman, Stacks, City Group,
(24:51):
they all played that tariff. We don't know how we're
going to make money anymore. A game a couple of
months ago. I'm predicting here now they're all gonna beat expectations.
And let's see if investors pour huge money into those
stocks tomorrow, giving it a little bit of a preview
on that. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, start your engines. It

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Weeks ago, I told you here on American Sunrise Early
Edition that Nissan in our Moving America segment that Nissan
may use some of this basically almost down factories in
places like Mississippi to help Honda, because Honda wanted to
get around the tariffs and wants to build more of
their cars and in this case, trucks in the United States.
(26:12):
So Nissan said, hey, we've got some factories, especially the
one in Canton, Mississippi, that's not too busy right now.
How can we work this out? Now we know more
details of this possible deal. It's not one hundred percent
finalized yet, but we do know that Honda, if they
do make this deal, will have Nissan help them build
their ridgeline pickup trucks in that Canton, Mississippi factory. So
(26:33):
this is a case where not only will taris help
get more jobs for Americans working in a truck that
was not made in the United States until now if
this deal goes through, but also it is getting a
chance for Nissan a little bit of a lifeline if
they can make it a Honda's not going to ask
Nissa to do this for free. Nissan's going to provide
this factory and some of its workers and more workers
(26:55):
to Honda for a nice fee.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
This might keep hon a Nissan alive. Lisa and Honda.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Aren't completely merging. The tariffs are bringing them together. And
I told you if folks Taris are all.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
About love, Honda Nissan are going to get together at
least in a little way.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
All right, Elon Musk's Groc. That Groc Xai chap program
had a pretty bad week last week, to say the least,
including somebody found some way to gain that system and
make it post some pro hitler stuff. I kid you not,
it's pretty ugly stuff. But despite that, the folks at
Tesla feel good about getting that bug out of the
system enough to put Xai grock into Tesla cars this week.
(27:32):
It will now be available in your software, So now
you can ask Groc if you should either push your
backseat driver out the window while the car is moving.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Or at a red light.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
Okay, I'm only kidding, but having an AI chatbot, I
guess will help during driving.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Maybe if you get lonely, especially.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
When I say the words loan refinance, you probably think
only about mortgages or maybe a big corporation that has
like a multi billion dollar loan and they want to
refinance it. Well, you may not know this actually a
big market for refinancing auto loans. You can refinance your
auto loan, by the way, if you want to, if
you're eligible. And Chase Bank is getting back into that business.
(28:09):
For years, they got out of it, but who can
blame them. They just decided to get back into the
business and why because of another story we talked about
here last week on Moving America. The number of Americans
with ten year long car loans I call that a
car mortgage is growing. So are the number of Americans
with payments of at least one thousand.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Dollars a month for their car loans.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
So refinancing now is becoming something almost as possible for
car loans as it is with home mortgages, and Chase Bank,
which is a big player, is getting back into it.
I don't love this trend, folks. If you can't afford
to buy your car and with anything less than ten
or seven years to pay it off, it's probably not
a great buy for you.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
But hey, I'm not your grandmother. I'm not scolding you.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
But makes me a little bit nervous, but hey, maybe
you can refinance and save some money. Okay, enough with
the tariffs, enough with software and all that other stuff.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Let's see. So car is burning rubber. Let's look at
some cool stuff.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Here is some video we're seeing now for the first
time of a series of drag races pitting the new
Corvette ZR one against the Lamborghini Revelto in Orlando last week.
The Corvette didn't win every one of these races, but
it won a number of them, and thus it matches
up very favorably with a much more expensive that much
more expensive Lamborghini. That Lamborghini goes for well over six
(29:24):
hundred thousand dollars, the Corvette is going the new Corvette's
going to be between two hundred and I think two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, so it's a bargain. By
the way, there are going to be more drag races
in the coming days pitting that Corvette against the poorchut
nine to eleven Turbo, a Tesla Model s Platt and
a McLaren seven to twenty s. So keep it up, Corvette,
not doing a bad job there at all.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Coming up.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
The Man of the People hoax has been blown up
several times already when it comes to New York maryl
candidate Zara Mamdani. But now we know the reality is
even worse, I'll explain.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
And the Air.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
India crash that I told you about could have been
a total disaster for Boeing, But it's still looking like
yet another example of another prob problem in all of aviation,
pilot mental health care. What are we doing about that?
We'll talk about that when.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
America's Sunrise Early edition comes right back.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
It's Monday, July fourteenth. Here this morning's top stories. California
Governor Gavin Newsom can't stop doubling and tripling down on
his fight.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
For illegal aliens.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Now he's even bashing Vice President Advance and his young
family while they visit Disneyland. Is there anything Newsome won't
do to protect this cheap illegal labor scam for him
and his shady donors? Hey, I thought the tarrifs we're
gonna crash the economy and blow up the deficit. Nope,
wait until you hear what the final financial numbers for
(30:58):
June look like.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Not so bad.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
The probe into that terrible Air India jet crash last
month has a damning preliminary conclusion, but it does seem
to leave one key American company off the hook, but
not passengers.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
And what did President Trump do.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
On the one year anniversary of the assassination attempt against him,
he went right out in front of the public and in
Jersey no less, this time acting as a host for
a major World Cup soccer championship and proving that America
does welcome legal foreigners all the time. American Sunrise Early
Edition continues. Now, welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition.
(31:40):
It is Monday, but we're going to get through it together.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
I'm Jake Novak. Thank you so much for joining me.
Thank you so much to those of.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
You in the Ghetter and the rumblechats you are often
running on Monday. You are not having a slow Monday
morning on those platforms, checking out all of your comments there.
Helping me get through this Monday situation is pilot and
CEO of Hopscotch Air Andrew Schmurt. And Andrew, you know,
I gotta say this, This preliminary report about the Air
India crash seems to me a lot like that Egypt
(32:09):
Air crash. And I think we both covered back when
we were working in local news in New York when
you had that Egypt Air pilot who basically committed suicide
and put that jet into the Atlantic Ocean. It's it's
looking like this, or at the very least, andrew a
very incompetent pilot who somehow switched down the fuel the
fuel gauge buttons and cut off fuel to the engine.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
That's what the preliminary report looks like.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Listen, you're the pilot, what does it look like to you?
Speaker 5 (32:36):
You know, First, I want to start by saying, this
is a reason why we should never listen to these
so cold YouTube investigators who look at some grainy video
of the flight and make conclusions about what happened, because
those comments are almost always wrong. Now, this is just
a preliminary report that's out by the Indian investigators that
(32:56):
say these fuel switches, which are located below the throttle
on the Dreamer were switched off prior to the plane
crashing and confusion in the cockpit about what happened. It
does not appear that this could be done accidentally. However,
Boeing and the FAA did issue an advisory a number
of years ago that aircraft operators should check these fields
(33:17):
cut off switches. So this leads to the questions about
what the pilots did, why they did this, and how
they did this. And obviously it is leading to us
going into a dark space that maybe possibly this was
pilot's suicide. Though we should not throw the pilots and
the crew under the bus just yet. The investigation is complicated,
(33:38):
will take a long time to look at. But that
is leading some people to that conclusion, which raises the
issue of mental illness. And the FA has been dealing
with this issue for a number of decades, but the
last few years the FA has started to make some progress.
I think it's slow progress in addressing mental illness.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
Yeah, I mean, first of all, Andrew, I appreciate your caution.
You're absolutely right to remind me and everyone else. And
again I listen. I'm trying to be as cautious as possible, but.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
I also like to get to the bottom of things,
and I do again I repeat my disclaimer that this
is what it looks like for now, could change. And
I'm certainly not the aviation expert. But what I do
know and what is not project you know, what is
not really guesswork is the idea that we do probably
need some better mental health care screening for pilots. I
(34:28):
don't know what the regular procedures are in any given country.
I assume there's we know that there's fitness tests for
our pilots here in the United States, and I'm sure
that most countries do something along those lines. But I
would guess that there may be need to be a
little bit more mental health screening as well. Probably not
a bad idea to add it, even though still things
could slip through the cracks. Any thoughts andrew on maybe
(34:50):
what you would like to see or what already? What's
what's already in place for some of these pilots. Do
they have like a mental health care screening regularly?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Do you know about that?
Speaker 5 (34:59):
Yes, the un States, the FA has been moving to
make changes. You know, mental illness is not like a
typical disease where it's either one or zero, so you
have to kind of evaluate further. In the past, pilots
who sought commercial pilots who sought psychiatric help went to
see a psychiatrist, maybe got some medication, were grounded, so
that led people to either a not seek help, which
(35:21):
is not good, or lie about it to the government,
which is also not good. The FA has made changes,
slow changes in this process that if you do need
help and seek help, maybe use some antidepressants, they will
clear you to continue flying after a number of protocols. However,
that message has been slow to get out to a
pilot community that has typically been very reticent of any
(35:45):
interaction with the government because they fear for their livelihoods.
So the FAA has made progress in this, I don't
think the progress has been significant enough because mental health
issues have been a problem for years. They have, as
we have seen, brought down number of planes, not many,
it's very rare, but over the last decade. I think
(36:06):
we still need to make more progress in this. But
I think the FAS Flight Surgeon Federal Flight Surgeon or
recent appointee over the past I think five or six
years she's been in the job, has done a number
of good things in this area, but more needs to
be done, you know. Again, and their wines, of course,
have their own standards.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Yeah, really heartbreaking for people if this is what turned out. Andrew,
let's talk about something on the brighter side. Delta Airlines
now I call it the Delta decoy. I think they
were deliberately underpromising and over delivering when they were talking
about the tariffs and saying, oh, he's gotta go terrible
and then, of course they had these great results last week.
I'm not talking about the Wall Street stuff.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Now, let's talk about this from a point of view
of the health of the aviation industry. Does Delta's report
make you feel confident about airline demand even through these
still somewhat uncertain times.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
It makes me feel confident about Delta. Delta is one
of the best run airlines in the United States. They've
done a terrific job of managing the softness in travel demand.
We've seen it at Hopscotch by the way. There is
a softness, but that softness is starting to resolve itself.
I think as people are feeling more confident about the economy.
People were spooked in the spring. They didn't travel. They
(37:20):
didn't travel there for leisure, and the airlines make most
of their money from leisure travel. But I think that
is starting to turn around. What a Delta has certainly
reported is significant and good news for the airline industry.
But it goes back to my basic point. You could
be to either be up market in the business or
down market in the business. You can either be Delta
or you could be frontier airlines. When you're stuck in
(37:42):
the muddy middle. That's where the problems occur when people
don't know what your product is.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
All right, Andrew, The viewers may not be aware that
before you took to the skies, you were down here
on earth, on the gritty New York City streets as
a reporter doing local news.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
You saw it all. We got to ask you about
the New York City situation. What's your take on this
mayor's race? Zorah on Mamdannie, the Communist Democrat nominee for mayor,
the scramble to try to get Eric Adams enough money
in support or find one candidate to everyone unite around.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
To defeat Mom Donnie? Is this a shock to you?
Speaker 2 (38:18):
I mean it's a different New York than the one
that we covered together when we were doing local news,
isn't it?
Speaker 1 (38:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (38:24):
You know, New York politics never fails to surprise me.
There is a huge enthusiasm gap. No one is enthusiastic
or was enthusiastic about Andrew Bombol. You did not see
rallies and thousands of people show up. Eric Adams probably
less enthusiastic, though now there's some momentum getting behind Eric.
And you know, you and I when we work back
(38:45):
in New York one. I know, I spoke to an
interview Curtis Sliwa a number of times. He's a great
interview He's a lot of fun to talk to. But
he really doesn't have a shot here. So the candidates
do need to come together and figure out what to
do about Mandani. I've heard I'm called a progressive, and
I don't like that because I have some progressive ideas.
I think progressive ideas sometimes have a legitimate place, certainly
(39:07):
in New York City. But he is far beyond the
pale of any progressive policies, and he's radical, and he
does not have the background to deliver any of these promises.
He's promising everything the whole world to everybody. He will fail,
and that's outside of his non political views, his anti
(39:29):
Israel views, his anti police views. He has a lot
of cleaning up to do, and I fear that the
media is going to kind of accept said that cleaning
up and not really give him the hard look that
he needs.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Yeah, you know, I think he can also back me
up on this statement.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
A lot of people have asked me, and they probably
have asked you as well, how can a city that
went through nine to eleven. Elect the guy who says
globalized the Antifada and seems friendly to loss. And I
tell them, you know, nine to eleven was almost twenty
four years ago. I would venture to say that maybe
thirty to forty percent the population of New York today,
the voting population, wasn't even living here on September eleventh, nine,
(40:06):
at two thousand and one.
Speaker 5 (40:07):
I wonder, if you see I do I do they
weren't living here, or they weren't born at the time.
It's hard to imagine. We're kind of old guys now
we remember that, and I think that we need to
figure out a way to remind people, or to educate
people about the dangers of that rhetoric. You could accept
progress of policies wherever they take, you give it a shot.
(40:29):
But this individual, in particular, I think is a danger
to the city. Unfortunately, we have failed candidates or flawed
candidates all around him, not able to coalesce and come
up with somebody who could possibly beat them.
Speaker 1 (40:42):
Yeah. Well, again, it's an interesting situation.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
I got to tell you, I'm looking at the chessboard, Andrew,
and it just doesn't look like they're going to be
able to beat this guy, Mom, Donnie, not because he's
so great, but just because these candidates running against are
not strong. And I don't think again you can see
why people wouldn't like them. Just don't see how even
with all of them drop out except for one, I
still think it's going to be a heavy lift. Andrew Schmertz,
thank you so much for joining us. Stay safe in
(41:07):
the skies.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
Have a great rest of your week, you two, Jake,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Okay, coming up, President Trump marked the one year anniversary
of the attempted assassination against him by being even more out.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
In front with the public than usual.
Speaker 2 (41:22):
David Brody and I will talk about the dual importance
of that event yesterday when American Sunrise Early Edition continues.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
Washington, d C.
Speaker 5 (41:59):
What a Oh.
Speaker 6 (42:00):
By the way, I'm not Jake Novak, I'm David Brody.
I'm just a poor man's Jake Novak.
Speaker 1 (42:06):
And that's actually accurate. He should be with us in
just a little bit. I don't know. Maybe he's gone
a wall. I don't know.
Speaker 6 (42:13):
We're looking into it as we speak. One of the things,
by the way, that he mentioned one of the things,
this is what we were going to talk about, and
he was going to talk about it with me, but
why not just more airtime for me, I'll talk about it.
How about President Trump yesterday at the FIFA World Cup
there out in Jersey, and there he is, and Jake,
I believe we have you back.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
You want to take it from here? Hello?
Speaker 2 (42:35):
Oh yeah, no, thank you so much, David. Sorry about
that little bit of audio problems for me, not you. Look,
you know, I wanted to talk about the dual importance
of this.
Speaker 1 (42:44):
Look.
Speaker 2 (42:45):
Obviously, him going out in front of public, in front
of eighty six thousand plus on the one year anniversary
of an assassination attempt at a.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
Rally, shows he's not going to be hide.
Speaker 2 (42:54):
He's not gonna hide, He's not going to be just
a shrinking flower. But there's another part of this, David
that I think people need to remember. The President of
the United States acts as also the head of state.
We don't have a king in this country. We don't
have It's not like we have a separate position. It's
not like we have the I think it's called the
Governor General or something like that in Canada. We don't
have that. It has to be done by the president.
(43:17):
He has to do the ribbon cuttings. He has to
do things like that. And we are here a year
before the major World Cup, the real World Cup tournament
coming to the United States. We have the Olympics coming
up in three years. This president has to show foreign investors,
foreign tourists, foreign countries that as long as you do
things legally, we welcome you in this country. There's this
whole lie that I think the rest of the world's
(43:37):
being told that we don't like foreigners and we want
to close our It's not true. As long as you're legal,
and especially if you're here to buy a ticket and
pay twelve bucks for a beer, please join us, Please
join us in America.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
And it's important for President Trump to show up at
these kinds of things.
Speaker 6 (43:51):
I mean, such a stute observation. I feel like a
broken record with you, Jake, I'm always going such in
a stute observation. I mean, you say it all the time.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
It's true.
Speaker 6 (43:58):
I mean, you're absolutely right. And listen, Let's remember Trump
knows visuals and it's important. Visuals are important. So for
him to be on stage, which by the way, I
have some few things to say about that, which is hilarious.
But him being on stage hilarious, not me saying it
is hilarious, but for him being on stage there in
(44:18):
an international surrounding where he's taking all that criticism, we
should not be lost. It should not be lost on
us that the visuals matter here. And by the way,
let me just say something about President Trump on stage
like that. First of all, I mean talk about hutzba.
I mean this guy right A year later and all
of a sudden he's in an open air stadium, eighty.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
Thousand whatever it is people there. Let me guess, Jake.
Speaker 6 (44:41):
I haven't done a survey, but my guess is not
everybody in that open air stadium was a big fan
of President Trump, if you know what I'm saying, as
it relates to international soccer audiences. Okay, so that's a risk,
and it's a big risk. And he didn't just do
it in an arena. He did in an open air stadium.
Beyond all of that, to me, what's interesting seed also
here is that Trump loves to be associated with winners.
Speaker 1 (45:04):
He is a winner himself.
Speaker 6 (45:06):
He saw the moment too, and you know what for
him to be on stage with Chelsea there and kind
of raising you know, and he didn't raise the trophy.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
But the point is he was part of that moment.
Speaker 6 (45:16):
It was kind of it was kind of funny. Actually,
it was like President Trump like was the president of
the club, you know, and he was. He was taking
part in the victory celebration, which of course, obviously he
didn't want to upstage anybody, even though the liberal media
would love.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
To say he did, but he didn't.
Speaker 6 (45:29):
The point is is that he knows moments, and he
understood that was not only a moment visually, but also
a moment significantly, like you said, as it relates to
the economic impact of what that visual would mean, because
everything ultimately is kind of like a six degrees of
separation regarding Kevin Bacon, except this time, Kevin Bacon is
the actual Bacon, the money.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
You know, Listen, the economic thing is important. Let's not forget.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
The United States did host the World Cup in nineteen
ninety four, and I have to tell you, right, there
were a lot of empty stadiums for a lot of
those matches, not for the final, not for the final
at the Rose Bowl that they sold out. Yes, there
were a number of well attended events, but for there
were a lot of empty stadiums. And President Trump doesn't
want that. He wants to show the world that we
have the fans, and more importantly, the fans from the
(46:17):
foreign countries who are going to come and watch these
matches will be welcome here. They're going to have a
good time here, and we're going to fill up these
stadiums these times. This time, this wasn't even an event
that I even knew existed. I didn't know FIFA had
a World Cup for clubs, you know, for actual professional teams.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
I think this is a new thing.
Speaker 2 (46:32):
But hey, we filled an eighty six thousand seat stadium,
which I called the Trail of Tears because I'm a
Jet season ticket holder.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
But hey, they filled it up and it was a
good moment.
Speaker 2 (46:41):
And look President Trump in that suit in the red
tie with all those guys in the socker jersey. It
was a funny picture, I thought for a second, but
you know what, You're right, he didn't upstage them. He
went to the back as soon as he got that
one picture. To David Brody, I'm going to be joining
you for the next two hours. Thanks for joining me
on early edition.
Speaker 1 (46:56):
You got more of me coming up. Stay with us.
