Speaker 1 (00:02):
Ahead on American Sunrise early edition. President Trump's patience with
ladiber Putin continues to wear thin. This time, he's saying
Putin has gone completely crazy. The Kremlin is responding by
saying that President Trump is overly emotional. President Trump is
also losing patients with Harvard. He's now threatening to yank
(00:23):
three billion in funding from the university and use that
money to fund and expand trade schools across America. Hey,
that's one way to spread well from the richest entities
in America back to the lower and middle classes. But
we do have more patients. On the tariffront, President Trump
is delaying until at least July the fifty percent tariff
(00:46):
he was set to place on EU goods coming in
to this country. The markets are cheering this morning, and
a new poll shows that the highest ranking Democrat in
America is woefully behind in the polls among Democrats in
his home state of New York. But will Chuck Schumer
really fall to the millennial progressive AOC? And what the
(01:12):
heck is happening here? President Emmanuel Macarona France shoved in
the face by his wife on camera. Well, at least
we know they have a spicy relationship. American Sunrise Early
Edition begins now.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, freedom,
and the values that built this nation takes centers to.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Your good deeths and bad deaths. That's how we're gonna
judge you.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Join host Jake Novak because he breaks down the stories
that matter.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
He will be letting the public know regularly what we
have found.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Nobak, starts now.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Good morning, and welcome to this Tuesday. It's a Tuesday
in American Sunrise Early Edition. I want to be honest
with you. I wanted to get someone to shove me
in the face, like President Macron and then turn to
the camera and pretend like nothing had happened. But I
couldn't get anyone willing to wake up early enough to
do that. So we'll have to do that next time.
But I feel for you, Emmanuel. It has been a
little while longer since we've last spoken because we had
(02:22):
that wonderful Memorial Day holiday weekend. I hope you enjoyed
the time. I hope you had a chance to spend
some time at least to remember our fallen troops as well,
in addition to having a good time. I think they
would want that. But of course there's a lot of
news to get to, including some stuff on the warfront,
on the warfronts around the world. Welcoming now also Don
Bramer from the Bramer Group, and Don, you used to
(02:45):
be a top Senate staffer, So let's talk about a
war as far as money is concerned, because that's a
big part of what's going on in Washington right now.
Now that the Senate has the big, beautiful bill on
its court, and you have a number of enitors who
are making a big point about how they can hold
this whole thing up if they don't get some of
the things they want. How do you think this is
(03:05):
going to play out? What should we be looking for
because I guess it's about a little bit more than
a month before we expect this thing to kind of,
you know, hit this deadline, the July fourth weekend deadline.
So I'd love to get your thoughts on what we
can expect in the coming weeks.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Good morning, Jake.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
You know the Reconciliation Act, you know, it has a
very long road ahead of it. You know, coming now
we have both the House and Senate and recess, and
part of that recess is the staff will be going
through dissecting the bill. Unfortunately, under we have a rule
called the Bird Bill, and the Bird Bill allows members
to go through each part of the bill and they
(03:41):
can raise emotion if they are opposed. So there's a
lot in that bill and it's got a long path
ahead of it. If the two bills don't align when
they're finished, then it'll go back to the House for
another vote, and then after that, if they still don't agree,
then it'll go to conference. So whether we get this
done by July, I'm highly doubtful. Many of the Senators
(04:02):
that I talked to expect us to take this into
early September.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
All right, So you're in other words, you're saying, if
I own a pizza delivery company in DC over the
next few weeks, I might make some money with some
of the late night Conference Committee Seve Well, it won't
be the conference committee of the committee stuff. I think
that there may be there's an opportunity here for all
of us and Coffee. I want to invest in offering
late night pizza drivli in DC.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
You can deliver at three am to the Capitol. I
think you're all.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Set, all right, that's all right.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Listen.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
We need business opportunities in America, and I like that,
all right. Listen. While the budget bill is really becoming
a minefield for intramural wars between Republicans, I think that
a lot of Republicans and even Democrats can identify with
President Trump's increasing pushback on Harvard. I mean, this is
something I think the whole country can get around. I guess,
(04:53):
I guess, except for some of the elected Democrats and
some of the outrage folks I saw on MSNBC last night,
very upset the President Trump wants to take money away
from Harvard. Don I know you're not necessarily a professional pollster.
I know you keep a close eye on those kinds
of things. I can't believe this is a big winner,
I think for President Trump. I don't think Harvard has
(05:14):
that many people. Even people who went there, even people
who are proud to have gone there, they're shocked at
how much federal money it's getting. So there's that group
that's even watered down. And then everybody else in America
who feels like Harvard hates them. I mean, they don't
really care that much. About Harvard one way or the
other until they find out they're teaching courses about how
Americans are bad people and how America is a bad
(05:34):
country and things like that. To me, this is a
big winner for President Trump and yet another we've talked
about this before, Don, yet another crazy hill for elected
Democrats to die on. They're really going to go to
the mats the mattresses over billions and dollars of federal
funding for a rich university like Harvard. That doesn't sound
like good politics to me.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Don. Well, you know, let's look at first.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
You know, Harvard receives about fifty two to fifty three
billion a year and a m so at bottom line, really,
what is three billion dollars to them? Not a big deal.
But what it is a big deal too, is to
trade schools. And we have demonized you know, hard working
jobs for years and told our children that you had
to get a degree. Well, now you've got PhDs in
(06:16):
social economic literary, literary serving a large vente and you've
got on field jobs that are six figure jobs doing
you know, skilled great labor with Allstol Shipyards and mobile
Ford Motor in Louisville and Contanies, all across the.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
World that are great jobs, but.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
We have told children that you can't get your hands dirty.
Let's teach our children what it means to work, put
in a hard day's work, and not serve lattes the
rest of their life.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, you mean thanks for bringing it back,
because I of course didn't ask you in the question
about the trade school aspect of this. We really need
this in this country. And it wasn't just a question
of our culture telling every kid they needed a four
year college degree. It was also a lot of corporate
Amo America and a lot of unions in America working
against as you'd think that unions would want more people
(07:04):
to join them, but they have been a big roadblock
in apprenticeship programs. They've been a big, big road block
in getting new members because the unions eventually, usually after
just a few years, become all about their senior leadership,
all about their retired members. Ask the folks in the
UAW that big contract they signed after that strike, and
they're still losing those entry level positions because of the
(07:26):
benefits were backloaded, backloaded into the older members and the
retired members. We could do an entire program on that
don let's get back to Congress because this I think
that might be one of the most intriguing congressional stories
of the week. A new poll in New York shows
that the highest ranking elected Democrat in America, that would
be Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. He is badly trailing
(07:47):
Congresswoman Alexandria Acasio Cortez in a hypothetical I should say
hypothetical New York Senate primary battle next year, because of
course she hasn't declared that she's going to primary him.
A lot of people believe it's a better than fifty
to fifty chance. But don I mean, look, Chuck Schumer.
We know is unpopular for a lot of reasons. But man,
these are the kinds of polls that get people to
(08:07):
drop out right and retire early, aren't they.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
Well, you know, I look at these polls. You got
to look at what was the audience that they pulled.
And Alc is on a high right now. She's been
traveling around the country with Bernie Sanders. But if you
look at the people in her district, they're asking where's Alc?
So you know, bottom line is, let's wait till we
get closer. Chuck Schumer is an institution and liking or hating,
(08:32):
you know, New York needs to understand that you go
to a freshman in the Senate, They're.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Going to lose a lot of pool.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
They're going to lose a lot of the power that
they have in the US by having a freshman center
as opposed to a leader like Chuck Schumer.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Is there any chance for a Republican to break in
in New York? Or is that two or three election
cycles away? I mean, because right now, if I see
that Schumer is this week, sure the first people who
are going to be interested in that are other ambitious Democrats.
But is there a chance that the two there could
be a massive fight in a primary between two Democrats
and a Republican could slip into I mean, any chance
(09:06):
of that or a wee years away from that?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Don I think we've had a long way to go.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
But what could happen is you talk about two Democrats
in the primary. If we were to get to a
point where you had more than two, like several Democrats
in the primary, where it's so waters down the vote
that you tear down the party, where it turns against itself,
then you have a slight chant to increase those odds.
I think for a few years away. You know, AOC
(09:31):
she's riding on a high right now, but if you
really look at her politics, I think if she had
to go into a debate against Chuck Schumer, she would
probably go home and start shaking Martiniz again.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah, well, listen to New York. Maybe they should run
Aaron Judge as a Republican for something while he's still playing.
That's a mistake that I think people make when they
keep nominating these athletes for political positions. I don't see
why they can't do both, And that's the key. Maybe
don't wait till they retire. But I'm half kidding there.
Don There's another senator who I think has become kind
of a rising star, slowly but surely in the American
(10:04):
news media, and that Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana. He's
a Republican from Louisiana, and he I think first made
his name because he's pretty smart on legal issues. It's
a pretty smart lawyer. So when judges go up for confirmation,
they all know he's going to ask them a very
basic question about the Constitution and if they get it wrong.
That video is going to go viral. But now he's
doing something He's expanded I think a little bit of
(10:25):
his area of discussion, because in the last couple of
weeks he's made a big point of going after this
ninety three billion dollars in energy green energy grants and
loans that went out the door in between President Trump's
reelection in November and his taking of the oath of
office in January. The Biden administration just shoved a lot
(10:46):
of money out the door. And it rea is like
a list of Democrat donors and insiders. I mean, it
wasn't just oh, major companies that we've all heard of
got a bunch of green energy loans and grants. It's
people like people who were connected to the former Michigan
governor who was at the secretary of a grand Home
and people like that. Do you think you can get
anywhere with this? I mean it feels like, between Doge
(11:07):
and other things, maybe the American public's getting a little
bit numb to all the numbers and all the crazy spending.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Well, first, I love Senri Kennedy.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
I mean he takes constitucial law and breaks it down
into a point of view that everyone can understand, and
he's his one liners are absolutely amazing. I was trying
to think of one real quick to add in here,
but I just can't deliver it in the way that
he can.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
But if you look at it, I don't think American
is getting numb at all. The dodge.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
I think they're getting and I hate your door woke up,
but they're a shock and they're alarmed. But how much
has been wasted if you look at what we're seeing
with this ninety three billion sounds a whole lot like
the last few weeks of the Obama administration when they
shove money out the door to support all their cronies.
I think what we have now with this administration, they're
going to look at every one of these programs. They're
(11:56):
gonna vet them.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
The checks haven't benched cash yet, and we're going to
revisit those and a lot of guys who know for
banking all that money may not find it in the bank.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Well, that's good to know. That's good to know that
a lot of the checks haven't been cashed yet. You
would hope that when a new administration comes in, I
think that it should be just basic rules that they
look at anything that was done during their transition period
and take an extra review. I mean, that really should
be what's going on. I assume that's sort of what
happened here. But still it's you know, they talk about
all this stuff with President Trump and people who are
(12:27):
donating to him and buying his big, his mean coins,
and how terrible it is. I mean, that's nothing. We're
talking about ninety three billion dollars out to a particular
party of particular president's cronies. That's nothing. I mean again,
all we ask for is fair and balance coverage, and
they're not giving it. When it comes to these kinds
of money going out the door. It's kind of money
going out the door. Don Bramer from the Bramer Group,
(12:48):
thank you so much for joining us, and enjoy this
shorter week.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Thanks so much, Jake, have a great weekend and stay blessed.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Thank you so much. All Right, coming up, the Democrats
reportedly area to get back mail voters in their corner. Well,
if that's the case, those mail voters won't want me
to report or find out about what's going on in
Colorado right now. It is not going to turn on
your average American mail voter. Let me just tell you that,
and did you miss President Trump's speech at the West
(13:17):
Point graduation ceremonies Friday. Don't worry. I have a couple
of highlights for you with my analysis. When American Sunrise
Early Edition comes right back. It's a live shot of
(13:51):
the Florida Everglades. Beautiful Tuesday morning in Florida. Remember it
is Tuesday. I know it feels like Monday, but we
had that extra day for Memorial Day. Welcome back to
America Sunrise Early Edition. I'm Jake Novak. A special welcome
to those of you who are watching and commenting on
Getter and Rumble. Hey, President Trump's speech to the West
Point graduates on Friday is something I know you might
have missed. You might have been out on the road
(14:13):
getting to your destination for a Memorial Day weekend. You
may have been getting your barbecue stuff at the store.
I really don't want you to miss it because it
included a lot of memorable moments. So I wanted to highlight,
in my opinion, what were I think the two most
important parts of the speech, at least to me, and
I think you might agree. Let's listen first to the
high regard President Trump said the cadets should have for themselves.
(14:37):
Listen to this an amazing team.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
Each of you on the field today is among the
most talented members of your generation. You could have done
anything you wanted. You could have gone anywhere, You could
have gone to any school. This is one of the
hardest schools to get into. And writing your own ticket
to top jobs on Wall Street or Silicon Valley wouldn't
be bad. But I think what you're doing is better.
(15:04):
Instead of sports teams and spreadsheets and software, you chose
a life of service, very important service, instead of stock options.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
And I do that stuff.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
It's sort of boring, honestly, compared to what you're doing.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
It's real boring.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
You chose honor, and you chose sacrifice, and instead of
business suits and dress shoes, you chose money, boots and
fatigues keeping yourself in shape. Because West Point Cadets don't
just have the brightest mind, you also have the bravest
hearts and the noblest souls. You're amazing people.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
You know.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
There was a lot of media coverage of how President
Trump supposedly during the speech, boasted about how Richie was
and how famous he was, and wasn't paying attention to
what the troops are all about. I honest see how
they could have heard the whole speech, because that was
really the cornerstone. So that's first. Second though, I want
to make a point. Pushing self esteem may sound silly
for men and women about to go into active duty,
(16:06):
potentially even into war, but don't be fooled. The morale
of our troops is vital and the history of this country.
We have had a number of periods in our history
where troops were made to feel bad about themselves, not
necessarily for anything they may have done or not done
in a war, but just because they were in the
military in the first place. Read Steven Ambrose's books about
D Day and Band of Brothers. Those are two important
(16:29):
books to read. I think every American should read those books.
And in both of those books, especially in D Day,
he talks about how in the nineteen thirties, before WLD
War II, being in the military was very much looked
down upon in this country. It was considered to be
a loser profession, a loser career. And it's amazing how
weak that made our country overall. And so it's important
(16:49):
that we have good morale and good respect for our troops,
both living and debt. Now, speaking of pride, the second
message from the speech that I wanted to share with
you is connected to the first. The esteem is not
a zero sum game. Boosting the values and the history
and the heritage of one cultural group in America does
(17:09):
not take away from others, which is why a lot
of the de rhetoric which does just that. By the way,
don't be fool DI rhetoric is not about uplifting just
uplifting some minorities. I wish that's all it were. It's
also about really bashing frankly, white people, white men, straight people.
They don't seem to be able to understand that everyone
(17:30):
can enjoy being uplifted. They demonize a huge part of America.
And so President Trump had this to say about where
DEI programs are going at West Point in the military overall,
listen to this.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
We've liberated our troops from divisive and demeaning political trainings.
There will be no more critical race theory or transgender
for everybody forced onto our brave men and women in uniform,
or on anybody else for that matter, in this country.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
And we will not have men.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
Playing in women's sports.
Speaker 6 (18:04):
If that's okay, you know, getting back to the DA
I think imagine telling our troops while they're either in
training West Point or in a barracks that some of
them are born needing to apologize to their fellow.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Soldiers just from the moment of birth. It's insane in
any setting. It's insane in a classroom, but in the military,
where these men and women have to serve each together
potentially under fire, that's more than insane. It's absolutely suicidal,
and we need to get rid of these programs. There
are other ways to help minority groups and other disadvantage
(18:41):
groups in this country besides demonizing everyone else who may
or may not have had better opportunities. We don't even
know if they had better opportunities. But looking at the
color of one's skin and deciding that once one group
should apologize to the other just for existing, is insane,
especially in the military. All right, tax Day may have passed,
but for millions of Americains, the real trouble is just beginning.
(19:03):
If you miss the April fifteenth deadline or still owe
back taxes, the IRS is ramping up enforcement. Every day
you wait only makes things worse. With over five thousand
new tax liens filed daily and tools like property taxes,
see bank levies and wage garnishments. The IRS is applying
pressure at levels we haven't seen in years. Increased administrative
(19:23):
scrutiny means collections are moving fast. The good news there's
still time for Tax Network USA to help self employed
or a business owner. Even if your books are a mess,
They've got it cover. Tax Network USA specializes in cleaning
up financial chaos and getting you back on track fast
even after the deadline. It's not too late to regain control.
Your consultation is completely free, and acting now could stop penalties,
(19:47):
threatening letters, and surprise levies before they escalate. Call one
eight hundred nine oh five eight thousand, or visit TNUSA
dot com slash rav. You may have missed April fifteenth,
but you haven't run out of op Let tax Network
USA help before the IRS makes the next move. Coming up,
the big beautiful tax bill or budget bill, I should say,
(20:10):
has a special tax break on car loans. But with
one caveat that, I bet you can guess what it is.
American Sunrise early edition will.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Be right back.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
We're back to the everglaze. I guess we really want
to see an alligator this morning, so we're back to
the everglaze of lives shot. It's actually a very beautiful shot.
I could look at that all day, and those air
boats or whatever they call them, there's awesome. I'm Jake Novak.
Welcome back to American Sunriser early edition. Let's take a
look at where the markets are going to open up today,
because I think that's that's going to be a beautiful
sight too, and yes it is. Look at that of
five hundred and thirty seven points on the Dow futures
(21:07):
right now. This is because President Trump over the weekend
said he's going to delay at least until July, those
extra tariffs he had threatened to slap on EU goods,
And so we have some nice jumps on about more
than a percentage point on all the major indices. Gold
is down because these trade wars help gold go up
and vice versa. But still, look, let's not get greedy.
(21:28):
Gold's still way over the three thousand dollars per ounce mark.
It's really near those all time highs. Crude oil flat
at sixty one dollars a barrow. We like that. And
let's take a look at bitcoin, because bitcoin also looking
strong one hundred and nine thousand dollars really right, just
at that all time high as well. So bigcoin and
just about all the cryptocurrency is doing well as well.
(21:48):
Now another reason why the markets are up this morning,
and a story that's not getting reported in enough places,
but that's why you come to this program. Japanese Prime
Minister Eshiba that's his name, that's last name. He now
says he aims to advance the tariff talks with the
United States to get a real new, stronger trade deal
with the United States, and he's got an interesting timeline.
(22:10):
This is what I like about his statement, because everyone's
kind of saying, hey, we want to make a trade deal.
He's saying he wants to make a solid deal done
by the G seven, the Group of Seven Economic meeting
that's next month, and we're getting towards the end of May,
so that's pretty soon. The market's like that too. Japan's
top tariff negotiator, a guy named Yosi Akazawa, held a
third round. They've had three rounds now of Japanese US
(22:30):
talks in Washington. That was on Friday. Apparently it went well,
so we could get a US Japanese deal and you
know what that means for those of you who buy
Toyota and Lexus and Honda and some of the other
products from Japan. That is going to be a big,
big relief on some of the prices coming into this country.
So let's keep an eye out for that. You're not
seeing a lot of people talk about this Japanese thing.
(22:51):
They're still talking about the US India trade deal, which
would be a nice thing too. They're talking about China.
I get it, but guys, don't forget Japan's still a
big player in this game. Take a look at the
energy front here because another story you may have missed,
and something else you won't see on just about anywhere
else in the news media today is remember President Trump
signed just before Memorial Day weekend an important executive series
(23:12):
of executive orders to really boost nuclear energy in America,
something people like me have been banging the table for
for something like thirty years. We need more nuclear energy.
It is still the cleanest and safest, and now it
has become the safest form of energy in this country.
Didn't used to be, but now it is. The executive
orders of President Trump's signed require the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(23:35):
to decide on reactor licenses within eighteen months. Get him
out the door. Let's go. Eighteen months is plenty of
time to look at these applications and also to open
the way for the Departments of Energy into Defense to
build reactors on federal land that will reduce regulations even more. Hey,
by the way, the stock markets cheered this news. A
nuclear power company called Oaklow rose twenty three percent it
(23:56):
shares on Friday. New Scale went up nineteen percent on Friday,
and a more traditional energy company, Constellation Energy, which has
some nuclear assets, that went up two percent. Energy companies
don't go up that much, especially utilities, in a day,
unless there's really good news. So look at this. This
is important. I'm happy to see this finally happening. And
now it's time for one of our occasional Jake Novac
(24:19):
Journalism professor at large classes. I used to be a
journalism professor at NYU while I was working in TV
at the same time, so I have some credentials here
to back me up. I want you to take a
look at this headline from CNBC dot Com, a place
I used to work at. CNBC. Look at this how
the US clean energy boom could go bust if Trump's
big beautiful bill becomes law. This is an incredibly, incredibly
(24:42):
misleading headline. First of all, there is no such thing
as a clean energy boom. All the clean energy companies
out there that have supposedly done well, they do well
because of government funding, government subsidies. There is no There
are no people clamoring for all these purely green energy
to achnologies if it weren't for tax breaks and other subsidies.
(25:04):
So there's really no boom. You can't call it a boom.
You can call it a clean energy government spending spree,
and I can believe that's going to end. But frankly,
also note what I with that headline was all about.
Just after I talked about the nuclear energy executive orders
of President Trumps signed. Now that's real clean energy, real
clean energy that people want. How is President Trump and
(25:24):
the bill and the things he's doing a threat to
clean energy when he's just signed a bill that will
bring us potentially the most clean energy that the public wants,
that the markets want more importantly than what the government wants. Folks,
you just can't trust the people who write in the
mainstream media either. They don't know what they're talking about
or they're spinning it in such a way. Look, there's
(25:45):
a lot of things I don't like that Republicans do,
the Conservatives do. It's fine to put that in a headline,
but when you hide what's going on for the whole country,
like for something is vital as energy, that gets me
angry as not only an American but also someone who
used to teach journalism. All right, ladies and general start
your engines, all right, Moving America. Sponsored by Artillery Tea Company. Sorry,

tea for twenty five percent off your first order. Used cars,
folks are getting to be less of a bargain. A
brand new report Friends says the average transaction price for
used cars three years old or less so these are
lightly used used cars jumped above thirty thousand dollars for
the first time since twenty twenty three, back when we
(26:59):
were still dealing with all those COVID supply problems. The
price of those again lightly used vehicles closed in on
the average sales price of a brand new car. Now
the average used car is only seventeen thousand dollars less
than the average new car, or seventy thousand dollars is
a lot of money, but still you would hope to
get a bigger discount for a three year old car.
That is the narrowest difference by the way between the
(27:21):
new and used car prices that we've seen since twenty
twenty two, when we had an even bigger supply chain
issue with the COVID slowdown from the year before and
the year before that. All right, here's a part of
the big, beautiful House budget bill that was passed that
you may have missed as it stands now, and again
this may not survive the Senate, but as it stands now,
that bill will give you a tax deduction on your
(27:42):
car loan interest payments if, of course, if you buy
an American made car. I'm sure you guys, guess that
that would be a caveat. It's a little bit funky
some of the rules here, But I want to give
you a little bit of an idea. But what you
would get if for every two thousand dollars that you
pay in car loan interest in a year, you'll save
four hundred dollars. It'll be a tax credit off of
your tax bill. In other words, it's a tax deduction.
(28:03):
But you can get about four hundred bucks off your bill.
That's not bad for those who don't have the hugest
tax bill to pay on April fifteenth, not bad. But
that may again, it may not survive the Senate. We'll see.
Here's an aspect of the need for some kind of tariffs,
some kind of block on what comes into this country
that you may not have heard. It's not just about
job loss, it's not just about economy. It's also about safety.
(28:25):
The Automotive Anti Counterfeiting Council, which is something that US
automakers put together so that this is from all the
US auto companies, they say the number of counterfeit replacement
vehicle parts in circulation in America right now is at
an all time high. Okay, now, This is no joke, folks.
We're not just talking about a replacement tire here. That's counterfeit,
(28:46):
and you know that can be dangerous. But there's some
things that are really dangerous, like there are little explosives
in your steering wheel to set off your and get
that so you don't die. If those aren't write or
if they're working too powerfully, that's a little scary. Apparently,
those are some of the parts that are very likely
to be counterfeit in a replacement vehicle. So that's a
(29:08):
huge problem. And of course there's other things like brake
pads and things like that. This is a big problem,
and tariffs indirectly stop it by stopping those shipping containers
filled with those counterfeit parts at the ports. We have
to do something about this, even when the tariffs are relaxing,
when the trade wars aren't raging. But the automotive companies
in this country are getting really worried about those faulty
(29:31):
and phony Really, they're phony parts that are in the
system right now. It might even be in your car
right now. All right, and now for the most important
auto race news of the last few days. No, not
the winner of the NDY five hundred. Who cares about that.
I'm talking about the winner of that Oscar Meyer Wiener
Mobile race that I have previewed right here on this
program late last week. You thought I was kidding, right, Yeah,
this is about as fast as they can go, but
(29:52):
still the tension was high. And by the way, the
winner was slaw Dog beating Shy Dog in the final second.
All six. There are six of these wienermobiles they participated.
Of course, now the hard training begins for next year's race.
And I don't care what anyone says. These wienermobile drivers
are truly the greatest athletes of our time. God bless them. Okay,
(30:14):
coming up, President Trump says, Harvard has it coming when
it comes to pulling billions of dollars of taxpayer money.
But what does America say? And big tech companies know
all the tricks to get the lower salary form workers
in the door. I'll talk about one way you might
not have heard about. When American Sunrise Early edition comes
right back. It's Tuesday, Tuesday, May twenty seventh. Here of
(30:48):
some of today's top stories. President Trump's patience with Vladimir
Putin continues to wear thin. This time. President Trump's saying
Putin has gone completely crazy. The Kremlin is responding by
say President Trump is over emotional, but we do have
more patients. On the tariffront, President Trump is delaying until
July at least the fifty percent tariff he was set
(31:11):
to place on EU goods. The markets are cheering this morning.
They like that news. President Trump is now threatening to
yank three billion dollars in funding from the Harvard University
and giving that money to fund trade schools and expand
them across America. That's a that's one way to spread
the wealth from the richest entities in America back to
(31:32):
the lower middle classes. I thought Democrats were for them.
And a new poll shows that the highest ranking Democrat
in America is woefully behind in the polls among Democrats
in his home state of New York. But will Chuck
Schumer really fall to the millennial progressive AOC. American Sunrise
Early Edition continues now. Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition.
(32:00):
I'm Jake Novak. Thank you so much for joining me
on this Tuesday. Remember we have a short week this week.
It might have been tougher to wake up this morning
after the long weekend but at least you have a
short week ahead of you, and I want to say
as special thank you and welcome to those of you
who are watching and commenting on Getter and Rumble. I
am reading your comments again. You know, I don't like
the news being a passive enterprise anymore. I got into
(32:21):
this business so I get talk with people, not talk
at people. From afar Scott Pelly, listen up, he doesn't
agree with my philosophy about news anyway. Welcome back. Joining
me now is the CEO of Overqualified dot Com, doctor
Isaiah Hankel. Doctor Hankel, of course you knew I was
gonna come talk to you about this Harvard day because
President Trub's thrown down the gauntlet again. Because now I
(32:44):
think he's done something really smart. It's more important to say, Hey,
it's one thing to say I'm gonna take away money
from Harvard. I think that that's relatively popular in America.
Even there's Harvard graduates who even support that, frankly because
they don't like government money going to the institution. But
he took I think a very intelligent step further, not
only from the point of view of pr but also policies,
(33:04):
saying he might want to take that money and give
it to trade schools in this country, you know, I mean,
don't we need more plumbers? I mean, I like the
idea that he wants to punish Harvard for its blatant antisemitism.
It's blatant two tiered justice system. Everyone stop stop telling me.
You know it's it's, it's it's it's a sunny day.
When I know that you're doing these kinds of things
to the Jewish students and professors at the university, but
(33:29):
giving it to the trade schools, Now, that's something to
make it even more popular, because that really sounds to
me like what the Democrats always want. Don't they want
to see a share the wealth transfer the wealth program?
Sounds like that's what we're talking about now. I'd love
to see the progressives get angry about this. Of course
they are, but I'd like to let's let's let's pillory them, please,
doctor Hankel.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
I mean, I've been very impressed with the overall strategy here,
and the hits just keep on coming. Harvard doesn't have
many good off ramps, and this has just been another
great chance for Trump to expose the hypocrisy. So, like
you just said, we can take the money from Harvard
give it to the trade schools, which is common sense anyway.
With AI taking over a lot of the white collar jobs,
a lot of white collar people are moving into the
(34:10):
blue collar industry, even if it's just managing your local
HVAC or local electrician store. And so I think this
is a really good plan, and it has great optics,
and it doesn't leave them much room to argue nothing does.
Everybody's a fan of Harvard losing their funding after what
they've seen on these campuses, so I hope that they
just keep doing it. Seems like every week there's two
(34:31):
three different things, three other ways that the government can
take money away from Harvard, and it's just it's amazing
to watch. I think it was even the New York
Times that said that the Harvard is losing its opportunity
to find any good off ramps. It is going to
have to concede the hits are landing. So I'm hoping
that I hope that this actually happens as well, because
(34:51):
I do think there's a lot that America can do
to really increase the number of jobs just by putting
more funding into the blue collar sector, which like you said,
the Democrats should be a fan of but I'm sure
they'll find a way to fight against it.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
You know. It's also another great example of how suicidal
anti Semitic people really are and anti Semitic institutions really are.
I mean, think about some of the great empires of
the world, some of the great entities of the world,
or just big celebrities who've decided to die on that hill.
I mean, whether it's Kanye West or something, that's what
they're doing that that's what they're doing. I mean, they're
literally deciding, you know what, we could do a couple
(35:27):
of things here to level the playing field, have a
fair justice system within our university, affair admissions programs within
our university. It would be the easiest thing in the
world for them to do from a structural point of view.
But they are so emotionally tied towards anti Semitism, towards
being angry at anyone who they believe is coming from
a more privileged history in this country, supporting the basically
(35:52):
people who have resentment in society, and that's really where
they're they're deciding to go. It's just incredible. Yeah, Now
let's talk a little bit about this, because this of
course bleeds into our justice system. You know, doctor Hankel,
I haven't really reported over the last several weeks about
this teen non teen murder case in Texas because very
often when you have racial incidents like this, even though
(36:13):
I think there are some important things to say about it,
I'm wondering if I wasn't there, and if I'm not
in the living in the state, maybe I shouldn't talk
about it. It doesn't really help. But now you really
have to have this discussion because Texas has decided that
seventeen year old Carmelo Anthony, the young African American who
murdered a fellow teenager, Austin Metcalf for no reason whatsoever.
(36:34):
It was like, you know, I gues he said he
dissed him or something very small event, nothing serious. He's
going to be tried Carmelo Anthony as an adult. So
again I don't want to talk about this, actually about
on racial hatred grounds. I don't want to talk about
that right now because I don't think that I can
really advance that discussion. But what I can advance is
a discussion about DEI and our justice system. If we
(36:55):
tell people We're going to get people different punishments based
on the color of their skin. That's really really dangerous.
Now Texas seems to be bucking that trend, at least
in this case. But DEI isn't just a university problem,
is it, doctor Angele. It's in our justice system in
a lot of places, isn't it.
Speaker 7 (37:12):
We've seen this for years now, and I think people
are tired of any class of citizens in the US
being treated differently than any other class. And it's beyond obvious.
You have people who are multiple repeat criminals, doesn't matter
what their other characteristics are. They're being let out immediately
after doing some very violent things, whether it's you know,
(37:36):
sucker punching somebody in the face that's just walking down
the street, whether it's killing somebody by stabbing them in
the chest like this case, and to see people rewarded
for that with lesser sentences, no sentences, a GoFundMe page
that makes hundreds of thousands of dollars. This is what
people want to have stopped. Doesn't matter who you are,
(37:58):
what your characteristics are, if you kill somebody, you need
to have the full extent of the law punishing you
for that. And it can't be something where it's like,
you know what, we feel bad for this person, so
we're going to let them out again even though there's
all of these signs that they're going to repeat offend.
And then if this needs to be the example that
has to happen, or if this needs to be the
(38:20):
end of that movement at least in the justice system,
I hope that it is, because it takes something, It
takes something big with lots of visibility like this to
happen where finally DEI can go away. And it's worse
in the justice system than at schools and universities, as
you brought up. Because of the universities. Sure you might
have people getting in at a higher rate, but in
(38:42):
the justice system, you have people getting out at a
higher rate, and they're repeat offending and people are dying,
and that's what needs to stop.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
Yeah, and I want to make two points about this. Look,
I'm aware of. This is two white guys talking about
a racial situation in Texas, and I get it, and
I also understand something that everyone should also stand. While
we are talking about this case here where an African
American teen killed or again is accused of killing a
white American teen. Let's make it clear this is something
(39:11):
that absolutely mostly threatens the minority groups. African American criminals
who are being let out of prison early or being
given some kind of lenience in the justice system are
ten times more likely to kill other African Americans or
to commit crimes against them. The idea that this is
some kind of compassionate policy towards minorities is exactly backward.
(39:33):
And I do want to make it clear that I'm
not just bringing up this case because it was a
white teen who was killed. I'm bringing up this case
because there was a push to give this guy a
complete pass, this young seventeen year old, a complete pass,
no matter who he killed. And that's the huge problem here,
another huge problem in America. Lastly, doctor Hankle, I was
intrigued by a post that you put up on X
about a different way that foreign workers that I should say,
(39:55):
big tech companies get foreign workers in the door something
with something like volunteer your programs. Can you explain this?
Speaker 7 (40:03):
Certain visas like the stemopt visa allows these foreign workers
to not have to get into a full time job.
They can just volunteer and still stay in the country
and they have to have, you know, some paperwork saying
that they're volunteering. But volunteering is working for free, and
everybody ignores this fact because an employer can let somebody
volunteer at their company, one of these foreign people working
(40:26):
on a visa that finished a graduate program, for example,
at a university, and because they get that volunteer, maybe
they don't do the internship, maybe they don't do the
paid internship for the American born worker, maybe they don't
have to open up that new job posting for that
American born worker. And so a lot of people have
been hearing about the H one B visa process, which
(40:47):
for sure needs to be revamped. But higher education has
all kinds of options, whether it's a J one, an
F one, and then a STEM opt different types of opts.
These things are being used to really un cut American jobs,
not just because they have to pay an H one
B worker around eighty thousand dollars or whatever the requirement is,
(41:07):
but because they have options like this where they can
volunteer and then bring on a volunteer foreign worker who
can stay in the country for three years after graduating
by volunteering, rather than hire an American worker.
Speaker 1 (41:21):
Yeah, it's a rough situation. Don't have time to get
to it, but I do want to let everyone know
to check out and I'll talk about it in the
coming days. You know, the Democratic Party, we learned over
the weekend, is spending a lot of money trying to
get young mail voters to associate with the party. But
they should talk to Colorado Governor Jayropolis, who just signed
into law a law that will basically make the taxpayers
of Colorado pay for transgender surgeries and other types of
(41:44):
medical procedures like that. That's not going to get young
mail voters and regular mail voters who are older into
the party. Doctor Isaiah Hankel, thank you so much for
joining us. Have a great short week. Thanks Jack. All right,
coming up, one of the legends of Congress in my lifetime,
Charlie Wrangle, has died at the age of ninety four.
David Brody and I will look at the good, the bad,
(42:06):
and the ugly of his career when American Sunrise Early
edition continues. That is the roof Cam Real America's voice
(42:36):
roof Cam over the West Bombast Studios, And no, the
roof is not on fire. Welcome back to American Sunrise
early edition. I'm Jake Novak. We had a very interesting
moment in American history over the weekend. Congressman Charlie Wrangle,
who served in the House for forty six no not
a typo forty six years, passed away at the age
of ninety four. There's good, bad, and ugly to talk
(42:57):
about with Charlie Wrangle. I will start with the ugly
because no one else is no one else is talking
about it at all. I don't really see it anywhere.
Speaker 3 (43:04):
You know.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
He was censured by his fellow Democrats in the House
for tons of ethics violations. I think he was. That
was very much a result of his so many years
in office. He was, before he passed away, a living
poster boy for the need for term limits. The good look.
He was a Korean War veteran, he received the Purple Heart,
and there were some very good things he did. Now
I'll talk about the best thing before I get to
(43:26):
David Brodie's comments to me, at least in my own
personal interactions with Charlie Wrangle. Some of you may not
know that Charlie Wrangle had a very strong personal relationship
with some he met in Congress. Then Congressman Jack Kemp,
and some of you may also know that when Jack
Kemp was working in the Reagan administration as the Housing
at Urban Development Secretary, he helped put together what we
(43:48):
call those enterprise zones, those special tax breaks, and those
special federal regulations dropped to get private investment into urban areas,
very often African American urban areas. The rebuilding of Harm,
the Harlem Renaissance, the fact that you can go to
Harlem today and then see fancy stores and what lovely
restaurants and a really nice situation going on in Harlem.
(44:09):
Jack Camp has a lot to do with it. Into
Charlie Wrangle's credit, he never shied away from saying. So
when Jack Camp passed away several years ago, I had
Charlie Wrangle on one of my programs back then, and
Wrangle had nothing but good things and proper gratitude for
Jack Camp. So I'm grateful for him for at least
for that. But it was a checkered career for the
most part. I mean, I think he did some good stuff.
How about you, David, what did you what did you
(44:30):
take away from his career?
Speaker 8 (44:32):
I think you pretty much hit all the sailient points.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
You know, he dropped out of.
Speaker 8 (44:35):
High school, which I thought was interesting. You know, he
went draw joined World War two and Korean War you mentioned,
so all, all of that is just quite a remarkable
life that he lived. And you know, let's let's be honest.
I mean, he was how do we say that, I'll
just say the words flaming liberal.
Speaker 3 (44:53):
I mean, he just was.
Speaker 8 (44:54):
I mean that's you know, you look at the lifetime score,
I think is American Conservative Union rating score was less
than four percent. And that's being kind. I think we
were round they were rounding up at the time. So look,
I mean, he's your typical true and true liberal, progressive,
whatever you want to call him. It was I thought
when you mentioned the censure part of this, which the
(45:16):
liberal media really isn't putting anywhere near him, and definitely
not in the first couple of paragraphs of his oh bit,
but it was significant. I mean it was significant at
the time.
Speaker 1 (45:26):
It was.
Speaker 8 (45:26):
I mean, he's one of I think thirty plus people
ever to be censured by the House and it was
the first time in like thirty years or something like
that had happened, and Nancy Pelosi had to actually read
the vote there in the well of the Chambers, So
you know that that was a very tough thing. But look,
bottom line is, you know who was he? He wasn't
Congressman Wrangle. He wasn't Representative Wrangle. He was Charlie from Harlem.
(45:48):
And I think if you kind of see it that way,
let's remember that ethics scandal and the censer. Let's remember
he won reelection after that. So he's got a little
bit of a Trump in him, not to compare Trump
and Wrangle. And I'm not suggesting guilt or innocence. I'm
just simply saying he's got resilience, is my point. And
and you got to give him that.
Speaker 1 (46:07):
Jake, Yeah, and that voice he had the voice of
its own voice.
Speaker 8 (46:13):
I'm Charlie Range.
Speaker 1 (46:14):
I mean, I'm Charlie Wrangle. If you didn't, you know,
I mean he sounded like he had a cigar in
his mouth, even though he didn't. And it was a
it's a New York that's really it's it's a New
York gone by David. I don't see people like Charlie Wrangle,
love them or hate them in New York politics anymore.
And that's something I miss. I missed the characters. You know,
AOC just doesn't even have a personality. In my opinion,
(46:36):
it's retainly not one that isn't grading. Charlie Wrangle wasn't
grading on me as much as he definitely annoyed me politically.
But you know what won't be annoying the next two
hours here in Real America's voice, because the big show,
American Sunrise is coming up a lot of news to cover. Remember,
you've already missed the day of this week of news,
so you need to get back on track. American Sonrise
coming up next. I'll see you tomorrow.
Ahead on American Sunrise early edition. President Trump's patience with
ladiber Putin continues to wear thin. This time, he's saying
Putin has gone completely crazy. The Kremlin is responding by
saying that President Trump is overly emotional. President Trump is
also losing patients with Harvard. He's now threatening to yank
(00:23):
three billion in funding from the university and use that
money to fund and expand trade schools across America. Hey,
that's one way to spread well from the richest entities
in America back to the lower and middle classes. But
we do have more patients. On the tariffront, President Trump
is delaying until at least July the fifty percent tariff
(00:46):
he was set to place on EU goods coming in
to this country. The markets are cheering this morning, and
a new poll shows that the highest ranking Democrat in
America is woefully behind in the polls among Democrats in
his home state of New York. But will Chuck Schumer
really fall to the millennial progressive AOC? And what the
(01:12):
heck is happening here? President Emmanuel Macarona France shoved in
the face by his wife on camera. Well, at least
we know they have a spicy relationship. American Sunrise Early
Edition begins now.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, freedom,
and the values that built this nation takes centers to.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Your good deeths and bad deaths. That's how we're gonna
judge you.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Join host Jake Novak because he breaks down the stories
that matter.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
He will be letting the public know regularly what we
have found.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Nobak, starts now.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Good morning, and welcome to this Tuesday. It's a Tuesday
in American Sunrise Early Edition. I want to be honest
with you. I wanted to get someone to shove me
in the face, like President Macron and then turn to
the camera and pretend like nothing had happened. But I
couldn't get anyone willing to wake up early enough to
do that. So we'll have to do that next time.
But I feel for you, Emmanuel. It has been a
little while longer since we've last spoken because we had
(02:22):
that wonderful Memorial Day holiday weekend. I hope you enjoyed
the time. I hope you had a chance to spend
some time at least to remember our fallen troops as well,
in addition to having a good time. I think they
would want that. But of course there's a lot of
news to get to, including some stuff on the warfront,
on the warfronts around the world. Welcoming now also Don
Bramer from the Bramer Group, and Don, you used to
(02:45):
be a top Senate staffer, So let's talk about a
war as far as money is concerned, because that's a
big part of what's going on in Washington right now.
Now that the Senate has the big, beautiful bill on
its court, and you have a number of enitors who
are making a big point about how they can hold
this whole thing up if they don't get some of
the things they want. How do you think this is
(03:05):
going to play out? What should we be looking for
because I guess it's about a little bit more than
a month before we expect this thing to kind of,
you know, hit this deadline, the July fourth weekend deadline.
So I'd love to get your thoughts on what we
can expect in the coming weeks.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Good morning, Jake.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
You know the Reconciliation Act, you know, it has a
very long road ahead of it. You know, coming now
we have both the House and Senate and recess, and
part of that recess is the staff will be going
through dissecting the bill. Unfortunately, under we have a rule
called the Bird Bill, and the Bird Bill allows members
to go through each part of the bill and they
(03:41):
can raise emotion if they are opposed. So there's a
lot in that bill and it's got a long path
ahead of it. If the two bills don't align when
they're finished, then it'll go back to the House for
another vote, and then after that, if they still don't agree,
then it'll go to conference. So whether we get this
done by July, I'm highly doubtful. Many of the Senators
(04:02):
that I talked to expect us to take this into
early September.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
All right, So you're in other words, you're saying, if
I own a pizza delivery company in DC over the
next few weeks, I might make some money with some
of the late night Conference Committee Seve Well, it won't
be the conference committee of the committee stuff. I think
that there may be there's an opportunity here for all
of us and Coffee. I want to invest in offering
late night pizza drivli in DC.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
You can deliver at three am to the Capitol. I
think you're all.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Set, all right, that's all right.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Listen.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
We need business opportunities in America, and I like that,
all right. Listen. While the budget bill is really becoming
a minefield for intramural wars between Republicans, I think that
a lot of Republicans and even Democrats can identify with
President Trump's increasing pushback on Harvard. I mean, this is
something I think the whole country can get around. I guess,
(04:53):
I guess, except for some of the elected Democrats and
some of the outrage folks I saw on MSNBC last night,
very upset the President Trump wants to take money away
from Harvard. Don I know you're not necessarily a professional pollster.
I know you keep a close eye on those kinds
of things. I can't believe this is a big winner,
I think for President Trump. I don't think Harvard has
(05:14):
that many people. Even people who went there, even people
who are proud to have gone there, they're shocked at
how much federal money it's getting. So there's that group
that's even watered down. And then everybody else in America
who feels like Harvard hates them. I mean, they don't
really care that much. About Harvard one way or the
other until they find out they're teaching courses about how
Americans are bad people and how America is a bad
(05:34):
country and things like that. To me, this is a
big winner for President Trump and yet another we've talked
about this before, Don, yet another crazy hill for elected
Democrats to die on. They're really going to go to
the mats the mattresses over billions and dollars of federal
funding for a rich university like Harvard. That doesn't sound
like good politics to me.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Don. Well, you know, let's look at first.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
You know, Harvard receives about fifty two to fifty three
billion a year and a m so at bottom line, really,
what is three billion dollars to them? Not a big deal.
But what it is a big deal too, is to
trade schools. And we have demonized you know, hard working
jobs for years and told our children that you had
to get a degree. Well, now you've got PhDs in
(06:16):
social economic literary, literary serving a large vente and you've
got on field jobs that are six figure jobs doing
you know, skilled great labor with Allstol Shipyards and mobile
Ford Motor in Louisville and Contanies, all across the.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
World that are great jobs, but.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
We have told children that you can't get your hands dirty.
Let's teach our children what it means to work, put
in a hard day's work, and not serve lattes the
rest of their life.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, you mean thanks for bringing it back,
because I of course didn't ask you in the question
about the trade school aspect of this. We really need
this in this country. And it wasn't just a question
of our culture telling every kid they needed a four
year college degree. It was also a lot of corporate
Amo America and a lot of unions in America working
against as you'd think that unions would want more people
(07:04):
to join them, but they have been a big roadblock
in apprenticeship programs. They've been a big, big road block
in getting new members because the unions eventually, usually after
just a few years, become all about their senior leadership,
all about their retired members. Ask the folks in the
UAW that big contract they signed after that strike, and
they're still losing those entry level positions because of the
(07:26):
benefits were backloaded, backloaded into the older members and the
retired members. We could do an entire program on that
don let's get back to Congress because this I think
that might be one of the most intriguing congressional stories
of the week. A new poll in New York shows
that the highest ranking elected Democrat in America, that would
be Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. He is badly trailing
(07:47):
Congresswoman Alexandria Acasio Cortez in a hypothetical I should say
hypothetical New York Senate primary battle next year, because of
course she hasn't declared that she's going to primary him.
A lot of people believe it's a better than fifty
to fifty chance. But don I mean, look, Chuck Schumer.
We know is unpopular for a lot of reasons. But man,
these are the kinds of polls that get people to
(08:07):
drop out right and retire early, aren't they.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
Well, you know, I look at these polls. You got
to look at what was the audience that they pulled.
And Alc is on a high right now. She's been
traveling around the country with Bernie Sanders. But if you
look at the people in her district, they're asking where's Alc?
So you know, bottom line is, let's wait till we
get closer. Chuck Schumer is an institution and liking or hating,
(08:32):
you know, New York needs to understand that you go
to a freshman in the Senate, They're.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Going to lose a lot of pool.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
They're going to lose a lot of the power that
they have in the US by having a freshman center
as opposed to a leader like Chuck Schumer.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Is there any chance for a Republican to break in
in New York? Or is that two or three election
cycles away? I mean, because right now, if I see
that Schumer is this week, sure the first people who
are going to be interested in that are other ambitious Democrats.
But is there a chance that the two there could
be a massive fight in a primary between two Democrats
and a Republican could slip into I mean, any chance
(09:06):
of that or a wee years away from that?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Don I think we've had a long way to go.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
But what could happen is you talk about two Democrats
in the primary. If we were to get to a
point where you had more than two, like several Democrats
in the primary, where it's so waters down the vote
that you tear down the party, where it turns against itself,
then you have a slight chant to increase those odds.
I think for a few years away. You know, AOC
(09:31):
she's riding on a high right now, but if you
really look at her politics, I think if she had
to go into a debate against Chuck Schumer, she would
probably go home and start shaking Martiniz again.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah, well, listen to New York. Maybe they should run
Aaron Judge as a Republican for something while he's still playing.
That's a mistake that I think people make when they
keep nominating these athletes for political positions. I don't see
why they can't do both, And that's the key. Maybe
don't wait till they retire. But I'm half kidding there.
Don There's another senator who I think has become kind
of a rising star, slowly but surely in the American
(10:04):
news media, and that Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana. He's
a Republican from Louisiana, and he I think first made
his name because he's pretty smart on legal issues. It's
a pretty smart lawyer. So when judges go up for confirmation,
they all know he's going to ask them a very
basic question about the Constitution and if they get it wrong.
That video is going to go viral. But now he's
doing something He's expanded I think a little bit of
(10:25):
his area of discussion, because in the last couple of
weeks he's made a big point of going after this
ninety three billion dollars in energy green energy grants and
loans that went out the door in between President Trump's
reelection in November and his taking of the oath of
office in January. The Biden administration just shoved a lot
(10:46):
of money out the door. And it rea is like
a list of Democrat donors and insiders. I mean, it
wasn't just oh, major companies that we've all heard of
got a bunch of green energy loans and grants. It's
people like people who were connected to the former Michigan
governor who was at the secretary of a grand Home
and people like that. Do you think you can get
anywhere with this? I mean it feels like, between Doge
(11:07):
and other things, maybe the American public's getting a little
bit numb to all the numbers and all the crazy spending.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Well, first, I love Senri Kennedy.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
I mean he takes constitucial law and breaks it down
into a point of view that everyone can understand, and
he's his one liners are absolutely amazing. I was trying
to think of one real quick to add in here,
but I just can't deliver it in the way that
he can.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
But if you look at it, I don't think American
is getting numb at all. The dodge.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
I think they're getting and I hate your door woke up,
but they're a shock and they're alarmed. But how much
has been wasted if you look at what we're seeing
with this ninety three billion sounds a whole lot like
the last few weeks of the Obama administration when they
shove money out the door to support all their cronies.
I think what we have now with this administration, they're
going to look at every one of these programs. They're
(11:56):
gonna vet them.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
The checks haven't benched cash yet, and we're going to
revisit those and a lot of guys who know for
banking all that money may not find it in the bank.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Well, that's good to know. That's good to know that
a lot of the checks haven't been cashed yet. You
would hope that when a new administration comes in, I
think that it should be just basic rules that they
look at anything that was done during their transition period
and take an extra review. I mean, that really should
be what's going on. I assume that's sort of what
happened here. But still it's you know, they talk about
all this stuff with President Trump and people who are
(12:27):
donating to him and buying his big, his mean coins,
and how terrible it is. I mean, that's nothing. We're
talking about ninety three billion dollars out to a particular
party of particular president's cronies. That's nothing. I mean again,
all we ask for is fair and balance coverage, and
they're not giving it. When it comes to these kinds
of money going out the door. It's kind of money
going out the door. Don Bramer from the Bramer Group,
(12:48):
thank you so much for joining us, and enjoy this
shorter week.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Thanks so much, Jake, have a great weekend and stay blessed.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Thank you so much. All Right, coming up, the Democrats
reportedly area to get back mail voters in their corner. Well,
if that's the case, those mail voters won't want me
to report or find out about what's going on in
Colorado right now. It is not going to turn on
your average American mail voter. Let me just tell you that,
and did you miss President Trump's speech at the West
(13:17):
Point graduation ceremonies Friday. Don't worry. I have a couple
of highlights for you with my analysis. When American Sunrise
Early Edition comes right back. It's a live shot of
(13:51):
the Florida Everglades. Beautiful Tuesday morning in Florida. Remember it
is Tuesday. I know it feels like Monday, but we
had that extra day for Memorial Day. Welcome back to
America Sunrise Early Edition. I'm Jake Novak. A special welcome
to those of you who are watching and commenting on
Getter and Rumble. Hey, President Trump's speech to the West
Point graduates on Friday is something I know you might
have missed. You might have been out on the road
(14:13):
getting to your destination for a Memorial Day weekend. You
may have been getting your barbecue stuff at the store.
I really don't want you to miss it because it
included a lot of memorable moments. So I wanted to highlight,
in my opinion, what were I think the two most
important parts of the speech, at least to me, and
I think you might agree. Let's listen first to the
high regard President Trump said the cadets should have for themselves.
(14:37):
Listen to this an amazing team.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
Each of you on the field today is among the
most talented members of your generation. You could have done
anything you wanted. You could have gone anywhere, You could
have gone to any school. This is one of the
hardest schools to get into. And writing your own ticket
to top jobs on Wall Street or Silicon Valley wouldn't
be bad. But I think what you're doing is better.
(15:04):
Instead of sports teams and spreadsheets and software, you chose
a life of service, very important service, instead of stock options.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
And I do that stuff.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
It's sort of boring, honestly, compared to what you're doing.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
It's real boring.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
You chose honor, and you chose sacrifice, and instead of
business suits and dress shoes, you chose money, boots and
fatigues keeping yourself in shape. Because West Point Cadets don't
just have the brightest mind, you also have the bravest
hearts and the noblest souls. You're amazing people.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
You know.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
There was a lot of media coverage of how President
Trump supposedly during the speech, boasted about how Richie was
and how famous he was, and wasn't paying attention to
what the troops are all about. I honest see how
they could have heard the whole speech, because that was
really the cornerstone. So that's first. Second though, I want
to make a point. Pushing self esteem may sound silly
for men and women about to go into active duty,
(16:06):
potentially even into war, but don't be fooled. The morale
of our troops is vital and the history of this country.
We have had a number of periods in our history
where troops were made to feel bad about themselves, not
necessarily for anything they may have done or not done
in a war, but just because they were in the
military in the first place. Read Steven Ambrose's books about
D Day and Band of Brothers. Those are two important
(16:29):
books to read. I think every American should read those books.
And in both of those books, especially in D Day,
he talks about how in the nineteen thirties, before WLD
War II, being in the military was very much looked
down upon in this country. It was considered to be
a loser profession, a loser career. And it's amazing how
weak that made our country overall. And so it's important
(16:49):
that we have good morale and good respect for our troops,
both living and debt. Now, speaking of pride, the second
message from the speech that I wanted to share with
you is connected to the first. The esteem is not
a zero sum game. Boosting the values and the history
and the heritage of one cultural group in America does
(17:09):
not take away from others, which is why a lot
of the de rhetoric which does just that. By the way,
don't be fool DI rhetoric is not about uplifting just
uplifting some minorities. I wish that's all it were. It's
also about really bashing frankly, white people, white men, straight people.
They don't seem to be able to understand that everyone
(17:30):
can enjoy being uplifted. They demonize a huge part of America.
And so President Trump had this to say about where
DEI programs are going at West Point in the military overall,
listen to this.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
We've liberated our troops from divisive and demeaning political trainings.
There will be no more critical race theory or transgender
for everybody forced onto our brave men and women in uniform,
or on anybody else for that matter, in this country.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
And we will not have men.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
Playing in women's sports.
Speaker 6 (18:04):
If that's okay, you know, getting back to the DA
I think imagine telling our troops while they're either in
training West Point or in a barracks that some of
them are born needing to apologize to their fellow.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Soldiers just from the moment of birth. It's insane in
any setting. It's insane in a classroom, but in the military,
where these men and women have to serve each together
potentially under fire, that's more than insane. It's absolutely suicidal,
and we need to get rid of these programs. There
are other ways to help minority groups and other disadvantage
(18:41):
groups in this country besides demonizing everyone else who may
or may not have had better opportunities. We don't even
know if they had better opportunities. But looking at the
color of one's skin and deciding that once one group
should apologize to the other just for existing, is insane,
especially in the military. All right, tax Day may have passed,
but for millions of Americains, the real trouble is just beginning.
(19:03):
If you miss the April fifteenth deadline or still owe
back taxes, the IRS is ramping up enforcement. Every day
you wait only makes things worse. With over five thousand
new tax liens filed daily and tools like property taxes,
see bank levies and wage garnishments. The IRS is applying
pressure at levels we haven't seen in years. Increased administrative
(19:23):
scrutiny means collections are moving fast. The good news there's
still time for Tax Network USA to help self employed
or a business owner. Even if your books are a mess,
They've got it cover. Tax Network USA specializes in cleaning
up financial chaos and getting you back on track fast
even after the deadline. It's not too late to regain control.
Your consultation is completely free, and acting now could stop penalties,
(19:47):
threatening letters, and surprise levies before they escalate. Call one
eight hundred nine oh five eight thousand, or visit TNUSA
dot com slash rav. You may have missed April fifteenth,
but you haven't run out of op Let tax Network
USA help before the IRS makes the next move. Coming up,
the big beautiful tax bill or budget bill, I should say,
(20:10):
has a special tax break on car loans. But with
one caveat that, I bet you can guess what it is.
American Sunrise early edition will.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Be right back.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
We're back to the everglaze. I guess we really want
to see an alligator this morning, so we're back to
the everglaze of lives shot. It's actually a very beautiful shot.
I could look at that all day, and those air
boats or whatever they call them, there's awesome. I'm Jake Novak.
Welcome back to American Sunriser early edition. Let's take a
look at where the markets are going to open up today,
because I think that's that's going to be a beautiful
sight too, and yes it is. Look at that of
five hundred and thirty seven points on the Dow futures
(21:07):
right now. This is because President Trump over the weekend
said he's going to delay at least until July, those
extra tariffs he had threatened to slap on EU goods,
And so we have some nice jumps on about more
than a percentage point on all the major indices. Gold
is down because these trade wars help gold go up
and vice versa. But still, look, let's not get greedy.
(21:28):
Gold's still way over the three thousand dollars per ounce mark.
It's really near those all time highs. Crude oil flat
at sixty one dollars a barrow. We like that. And
let's take a look at bitcoin, because bitcoin also looking
strong one hundred and nine thousand dollars really right, just
at that all time high as well. So bigcoin and
just about all the cryptocurrency is doing well as well.
(21:48):
Now another reason why the markets are up this morning,
and a story that's not getting reported in enough places,
but that's why you come to this program. Japanese Prime
Minister Eshiba that's his name, that's last name. He now
says he aims to advance the tariff talks with the
United States to get a real new, stronger trade deal
with the United States, and he's got an interesting timeline.
(22:10):
This is what I like about his statement, because everyone's
kind of saying, hey, we want to make a trade deal.
He's saying he wants to make a solid deal done
by the G seven, the Group of Seven Economic meeting
that's next month, and we're getting towards the end of May,
so that's pretty soon. The market's like that too. Japan's
top tariff negotiator, a guy named Yosi Akazawa, held a
third round. They've had three rounds now of Japanese US
(22:30):
talks in Washington. That was on Friday. Apparently it went well,
so we could get a US Japanese deal and you
know what that means for those of you who buy
Toyota and Lexus and Honda and some of the other
products from Japan. That is going to be a big,
big relief on some of the prices coming into this country.
So let's keep an eye out for that. You're not
seeing a lot of people talk about this Japanese thing.
(22:51):
They're still talking about the US India trade deal, which
would be a nice thing too. They're talking about China.
I get it, but guys, don't forget Japan's still a
big player in this game. Take a look at the
energy front here because another story you may have missed,
and something else you won't see on just about anywhere
else in the news media today is remember President Trump
signed just before Memorial Day weekend an important executive series
(23:12):
of executive orders to really boost nuclear energy in America,
something people like me have been banging the table for
for something like thirty years. We need more nuclear energy.
It is still the cleanest and safest, and now it
has become the safest form of energy in this country.
Didn't used to be, but now it is. The executive
orders of President Trump's signed require the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(23:35):
to decide on reactor licenses within eighteen months. Get him
out the door. Let's go. Eighteen months is plenty of
time to look at these applications and also to open
the way for the Departments of Energy into Defense to
build reactors on federal land that will reduce regulations even more. Hey,
by the way, the stock markets cheered this news. A
nuclear power company called Oaklow rose twenty three percent it
(23:56):
shares on Friday. New Scale went up nineteen percent on Friday,
and a more traditional energy company, Constellation Energy, which has
some nuclear assets, that went up two percent. Energy companies
don't go up that much, especially utilities, in a day,
unless there's really good news. So look at this. This
is important. I'm happy to see this finally happening. And
now it's time for one of our occasional Jake Novac
(24:19):
Journalism professor at large classes. I used to be a
journalism professor at NYU while I was working in TV
at the same time, so I have some credentials here
to back me up. I want you to take a
look at this headline from CNBC dot Com, a place
I used to work at. CNBC. Look at this how
the US clean energy boom could go bust if Trump's
big beautiful bill becomes law. This is an incredibly, incredibly
(24:42):
misleading headline. First of all, there is no such thing
as a clean energy boom. All the clean energy companies
out there that have supposedly done well, they do well
because of government funding, government subsidies. There is no There
are no people clamoring for all these purely green energy
to achnologies if it weren't for tax breaks and other subsidies.
(25:04):
So there's really no boom. You can't call it a boom.
You can call it a clean energy government spending spree,
and I can believe that's going to end. But frankly,
also note what I with that headline was all about.
Just after I talked about the nuclear energy executive orders
of President Trumps signed. Now that's real clean energy, real
clean energy that people want. How is President Trump and
(25:24):
the bill and the things he's doing a threat to
clean energy when he's just signed a bill that will
bring us potentially the most clean energy that the public wants,
that the markets want more importantly than what the government wants. Folks,
you just can't trust the people who write in the
mainstream media either. They don't know what they're talking about
or they're spinning it in such a way. Look, there's
(25:45):
a lot of things I don't like that Republicans do,
the Conservatives do. It's fine to put that in a headline,
but when you hide what's going on for the whole country,
like for something is vital as energy, that gets me
angry as not only an American but also someone who
used to teach journalism. All right, ladies and general start
your engines, all right, Moving America. Sponsored by Artillery Tea Company. Sorry,
(26:16):
jump the gun there, Artillerytecode dot com use promo code
America's tea for twenty five percent off of your first order.
Artillery t is all natural, whole leaf, The tea bags
are chemical free and each TA bag can be used twice.
Artillery Tea Company is family and veteran owned and operated,
and a portion of your purchase goes to help veteran
and first responder charities. Artillerytco dot Com Promo code America's
(26:39):
tea for twenty five percent off your first order. Used cars,
folks are getting to be less of a bargain. A
brand new report Friends says the average transaction price for
used cars three years old or less so these are
lightly used used cars jumped above thirty thousand dollars for
the first time since twenty twenty three, back when we
(26:59):
were still dealing with all those COVID supply problems. The
price of those again lightly used vehicles closed in on
the average sales price of a brand new car. Now
the average used car is only seventeen thousand dollars less
than the average new car, or seventy thousand dollars is
a lot of money, but still you would hope to
get a bigger discount for a three year old car.
That is the narrowest difference by the way between the
(27:21):
new and used car prices that we've seen since twenty
twenty two, when we had an even bigger supply chain
issue with the COVID slowdown from the year before and
the year before that. All right, here's a part of
the big, beautiful House budget bill that was passed that
you may have missed as it stands now, and again
this may not survive the Senate, but as it stands now,
that bill will give you a tax deduction on your
(27:42):
car loan interest payments if, of course, if you buy
an American made car. I'm sure you guys, guess that
that would be a caveat. It's a little bit funky
some of the rules here, But I want to give
you a little bit of an idea. But what you
would get if for every two thousand dollars that you
pay in car loan interest in a year, you'll save
four hundred dollars. It'll be a tax credit off of
your tax bill. In other words, it's a tax deduction.
(28:03):
But you can get about four hundred bucks off your bill.
That's not bad for those who don't have the hugest
tax bill to pay on April fifteenth, not bad. But
that may again, it may not survive the Senate. We'll see.
Here's an aspect of the need for some kind of tariffs,
some kind of block on what comes into this country
that you may not have heard. It's not just about
job loss, it's not just about economy. It's also about safety.
(28:25):
The Automotive Anti Counterfeiting Council, which is something that US
automakers put together so that this is from all the
US auto companies, they say the number of counterfeit replacement
vehicle parts in circulation in America right now is at
an all time high. Okay, now, This is no joke, folks.
We're not just talking about a replacement tire here. That's counterfeit,
(28:46):
and you know that can be dangerous. But there's some
things that are really dangerous, like there are little explosives
in your steering wheel to set off your and get
that so you don't die. If those aren't write or
if they're working too powerfully, that's a little scary. Apparently,
those are some of the parts that are very likely
to be counterfeit in a replacement vehicle. So that's a
(29:08):
huge problem. And of course there's other things like brake
pads and things like that. This is a big problem,
and tariffs indirectly stop it by stopping those shipping containers
filled with those counterfeit parts at the ports. We have
to do something about this, even when the tariffs are relaxing,
when the trade wars aren't raging. But the automotive companies
in this country are getting really worried about those faulty
(29:31):
and phony Really, they're phony parts that are in the
system right now. It might even be in your car
right now. All right, and now for the most important
auto race news of the last few days. No, not
the winner of the NDY five hundred. Who cares about that.
I'm talking about the winner of that Oscar Meyer Wiener
Mobile race that I have previewed right here on this
program late last week. You thought I was kidding, right, Yeah,
this is about as fast as they can go, but
(29:52):
still the tension was high. And by the way, the
winner was slaw Dog beating Shy Dog in the final second.
All six. There are six of these wienermobiles they participated.
Of course, now the hard training begins for next year's race.
And I don't care what anyone says. These wienermobile drivers
are truly the greatest athletes of our time. God bless them. Okay,
(30:14):
coming up, President Trump says, Harvard has it coming when
it comes to pulling billions of dollars of taxpayer money.
But what does America say? And big tech companies know
all the tricks to get the lower salary form workers
in the door. I'll talk about one way you might
not have heard about. When American Sunrise Early edition comes
right back. It's Tuesday, Tuesday, May twenty seventh. Here of
(30:48):
some of today's top stories. President Trump's patience with Vladimir
Putin continues to wear thin. This time. President Trump's saying
Putin has gone completely crazy. The Kremlin is responding by
say President Trump is over emotional, but we do have
more patients. On the tariffront, President Trump is delaying until
July at least the fifty percent tariff he was set
(31:11):
to place on EU goods. The markets are cheering this morning.
They like that news. President Trump is now threatening to
yank three billion dollars in funding from the Harvard University
and giving that money to fund trade schools and expand
them across America. That's a that's one way to spread
the wealth from the richest entities in America back to
(31:32):
the lower middle classes. I thought Democrats were for them.
And a new poll shows that the highest ranking Democrat
in America is woefully behind in the polls among Democrats
in his home state of New York. But will Chuck
Schumer really fall to the millennial progressive AOC. American Sunrise
Early Edition continues now. Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition.
(32:00):
I'm Jake Novak. Thank you so much for joining me
on this Tuesday. Remember we have a short week this week.
It might have been tougher to wake up this morning
after the long weekend but at least you have a
short week ahead of you, and I want to say
as special thank you and welcome to those of you
who are watching and commenting on Getter and Rumble. I
am reading your comments again. You know, I don't like
the news being a passive enterprise anymore. I got into
(32:21):
this business so I get talk with people, not talk
at people. From afar Scott Pelly, listen up, he doesn't
agree with my philosophy about news anyway. Welcome back. Joining
me now is the CEO of Overqualified dot Com, doctor
Isaiah Hankel. Doctor Hankel, of course you knew I was
gonna come talk to you about this Harvard day because
President Trub's thrown down the gauntlet again. Because now I
(32:44):
think he's done something really smart. It's more important to say, Hey,
it's one thing to say I'm gonna take away money
from Harvard. I think that that's relatively popular in America.
Even there's Harvard graduates who even support that, frankly because
they don't like government money going to the institution. But
he took I think a very intelligent step further, not
only from the point of view of pr but also policies,
(33:04):
saying he might want to take that money and give
it to trade schools in this country, you know, I mean,
don't we need more plumbers? I mean, I like the
idea that he wants to punish Harvard for its blatant antisemitism.
It's blatant two tiered justice system. Everyone stop stop telling me.
You know it's it's, it's it's it's a sunny day.
When I know that you're doing these kinds of things
to the Jewish students and professors at the university, but
(33:29):
giving it to the trade schools, Now, that's something to
make it even more popular, because that really sounds to
me like what the Democrats always want. Don't they want
to see a share the wealth transfer the wealth program?
Sounds like that's what we're talking about now. I'd love
to see the progressives get angry about this. Of course
they are, but I'd like to let's let's let's pillory them, please,
doctor Hankel.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
I mean, I've been very impressed with the overall strategy here,
and the hits just keep on coming. Harvard doesn't have
many good off ramps, and this has just been another
great chance for Trump to expose the hypocrisy. So, like
you just said, we can take the money from Harvard
give it to the trade schools, which is common sense anyway.
With AI taking over a lot of the white collar jobs,
a lot of white collar people are moving into the
(34:10):
blue collar industry, even if it's just managing your local
HVAC or local electrician store. And so I think this
is a really good plan, and it has great optics,
and it doesn't leave them much room to argue nothing does.
Everybody's a fan of Harvard losing their funding after what
they've seen on these campuses, so I hope that they
just keep doing it. Seems like every week there's two
(34:31):
three different things, three other ways that the government can
take money away from Harvard, and it's just it's amazing
to watch. I think it was even the New York
Times that said that the Harvard is losing its opportunity
to find any good off ramps. It is going to
have to concede the hits are landing. So I'm hoping
that I hope that this actually happens as well, because
(34:51):
I do think there's a lot that America can do
to really increase the number of jobs just by putting
more funding into the blue collar sector, which like you said,
the Democrats should be a fan of but I'm sure
they'll find a way to fight against it.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
You know. It's also another great example of how suicidal
anti Semitic people really are and anti Semitic institutions really are.
I mean, think about some of the great empires of
the world, some of the great entities of the world,
or just big celebrities who've decided to die on that hill.
I mean, whether it's Kanye West or something, that's what
they're doing that that's what they're doing. I mean, they're
literally deciding, you know what, we could do a couple
(35:27):
of things here to level the playing field, have a
fair justice system within our university, affair admissions programs within
our university. It would be the easiest thing in the
world for them to do from a structural point of view.
But they are so emotionally tied towards anti Semitism, towards
being angry at anyone who they believe is coming from
a more privileged history in this country, supporting the basically
(35:52):
people who have resentment in society, and that's really where
they're they're deciding to go. It's just incredible. Yeah, Now
let's talk a little bit about this, because this of
course bleeds into our justice system. You know, doctor Hankel,
I haven't really reported over the last several weeks about
this teen non teen murder case in Texas because very
often when you have racial incidents like this, even though
(36:13):
I think there are some important things to say about it,
I'm wondering if I wasn't there, and if I'm not
in the living in the state, maybe I shouldn't talk
about it. It doesn't really help. But now you really
have to have this discussion because Texas has decided that
seventeen year old Carmelo Anthony, the young African American who
murdered a fellow teenager, Austin Metcalf for no reason whatsoever.
(36:34):
It was like, you know, I gues he said he
dissed him or something very small event, nothing serious. He's
going to be tried Carmelo Anthony as an adult. So
again I don't want to talk about this, actually about
on racial hatred grounds. I don't want to talk about
that right now because I don't think that I can
really advance that discussion. But what I can advance is
a discussion about DEI and our justice system. If we
(36:55):
tell people We're going to get people different punishments based
on the color of their skin. That's really really dangerous.
Now Texas seems to be bucking that trend, at least
in this case. But DEI isn't just a university problem,
is it, doctor Angele. It's in our justice system in
a lot of places, isn't it.
Speaker 7 (37:12):
We've seen this for years now, and I think people
are tired of any class of citizens in the US
being treated differently than any other class. And it's beyond obvious.
You have people who are multiple repeat criminals, doesn't matter
what their other characteristics are. They're being let out immediately
after doing some very violent things, whether it's you know,
(37:36):
sucker punching somebody in the face that's just walking down
the street, whether it's killing somebody by stabbing them in
the chest like this case, and to see people rewarded
for that with lesser sentences, no sentences, a GoFundMe page
that makes hundreds of thousands of dollars. This is what
people want to have stopped. Doesn't matter who you are,
(37:58):
what your characteristics are, if you kill somebody, you need
to have the full extent of the law punishing you
for that. And it can't be something where it's like,
you know what, we feel bad for this person, so
we're going to let them out again even though there's
all of these signs that they're going to repeat offend.
And then if this needs to be the example that
has to happen, or if this needs to be the
(38:20):
end of that movement at least in the justice system,
I hope that it is, because it takes something, It
takes something big with lots of visibility like this to
happen where finally DEI can go away. And it's worse
in the justice system than at schools and universities, as
you brought up. Because of the universities. Sure you might
have people getting in at a higher rate, but in
(38:42):
the justice system, you have people getting out at a
higher rate, and they're repeat offending and people are dying,
and that's what needs to stop.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
Yeah, and I want to make two points about this. Look,
I'm aware of. This is two white guys talking about
a racial situation in Texas, and I get it, and
I also understand something that everyone should also stand. While
we are talking about this case here where an African
American teen killed or again is accused of killing a
white American teen. Let's make it clear this is something
(39:11):
that absolutely mostly threatens the minority groups. African American criminals
who are being let out of prison early or being
given some kind of lenience in the justice system are
ten times more likely to kill other African Americans or
to commit crimes against them. The idea that this is
some kind of compassionate policy towards minorities is exactly backward.
(39:33):
And I do want to make it clear that I'm
not just bringing up this case because it was a
white teen who was killed. I'm bringing up this case
because there was a push to give this guy a
complete pass, this young seventeen year old, a complete pass,
no matter who he killed. And that's the huge problem here,
another huge problem in America. Lastly, doctor Hankle, I was
intrigued by a post that you put up on X
about a different way that foreign workers that I should say,
(39:55):
big tech companies get foreign workers in the door something
with something like volunteer your programs. Can you explain this?
Speaker 7 (40:03):
Certain visas like the stemopt visa allows these foreign workers
to not have to get into a full time job.
They can just volunteer and still stay in the country
and they have to have, you know, some paperwork saying
that they're volunteering. But volunteering is working for free, and
everybody ignores this fact because an employer can let somebody
volunteer at their company, one of these foreign people working
(40:26):
on a visa that finished a graduate program, for example,
at a university, and because they get that volunteer, maybe
they don't do the internship, maybe they don't do the
paid internship for the American born worker, maybe they don't
have to open up that new job posting for that
American born worker. And so a lot of people have
been hearing about the H one B visa process, which
(40:47):
for sure needs to be revamped. But higher education has
all kinds of options, whether it's a J one, an
F one, and then a STEM opt different types of opts.
These things are being used to really un cut American jobs,
not just because they have to pay an H one
B worker around eighty thousand dollars or whatever the requirement is,
(41:07):
but because they have options like this where they can
volunteer and then bring on a volunteer foreign worker who
can stay in the country for three years after graduating
by volunteering, rather than hire an American worker.
Speaker 1 (41:21):
Yeah, it's a rough situation. Don't have time to get
to it, but I do want to let everyone know
to check out and I'll talk about it in the
coming days. You know, the Democratic Party, we learned over
the weekend, is spending a lot of money trying to
get young mail voters to associate with the party. But
they should talk to Colorado Governor Jayropolis, who just signed
into law a law that will basically make the taxpayers
of Colorado pay for transgender surgeries and other types of
(41:44):
medical procedures like that. That's not going to get young
mail voters and regular mail voters who are older into
the party. Doctor Isaiah Hankel, thank you so much for
joining us. Have a great short week. Thanks Jack. All right,
coming up, one of the legends of Congress in my lifetime,
Charlie Wrangle, has died at the age of ninety four.
David Brody and I will look at the good, the bad,
(42:06):
and the ugly of his career when American Sunrise Early
edition continues. That is the roof Cam Real America's voice
(42:36):
roof Cam over the West Bombast Studios, And no, the
roof is not on fire. Welcome back to American Sunrise
early edition. I'm Jake Novak. We had a very interesting
moment in American history over the weekend. Congressman Charlie Wrangle,
who served in the House for forty six no not
a typo forty six years, passed away at the age
of ninety four. There's good, bad, and ugly to talk
(42:57):
about with Charlie Wrangle. I will start with the ugly
because no one else is no one else is talking
about it at all. I don't really see it anywhere.
Speaker 3 (43:04):
You know.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
He was censured by his fellow Democrats in the House
for tons of ethics violations. I think he was. That
was very much a result of his so many years
in office. He was, before he passed away, a living
poster boy for the need for term limits. The good look.
He was a Korean War veteran, he received the Purple Heart,
and there were some very good things he did. Now
I'll talk about the best thing before I get to
(43:26):
David Brodie's comments to me, at least in my own
personal interactions with Charlie Wrangle. Some of you may not
know that Charlie Wrangle had a very strong personal relationship
with some he met in Congress. Then Congressman Jack Kemp,
and some of you may also know that when Jack
Kemp was working in the Reagan administration as the Housing
at Urban Development Secretary, he helped put together what we
(43:48):
call those enterprise zones, those special tax breaks, and those
special federal regulations dropped to get private investment into urban areas,
very often African American urban areas. The rebuilding of Harm,
the Harlem Renaissance, the fact that you can go to
Harlem today and then see fancy stores and what lovely
restaurants and a really nice situation going on in Harlem.
(44:09):
Jack Camp has a lot to do with it. Into
Charlie Wrangle's credit, he never shied away from saying. So
when Jack Camp passed away several years ago, I had
Charlie Wrangle on one of my programs back then, and
Wrangle had nothing but good things and proper gratitude for
Jack Camp. So I'm grateful for him for at least
for that. But it was a checkered career for the
most part. I mean, I think he did some good stuff.
How about you, David, what did you what did you
(44:30):
take away from his career?
Speaker 8 (44:32):
I think you pretty much hit all the sailient points.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
You know, he dropped out of.
Speaker 8 (44:35):
High school, which I thought was interesting. You know, he
went draw joined World War two and Korean War you mentioned,
so all, all of that is just quite a remarkable
life that he lived. And you know, let's let's be honest.
I mean, he was how do we say that, I'll
just say the words flaming liberal.
Speaker 3 (44:53):
I mean, he just was.
Speaker 8 (44:54):
I mean that's you know, you look at the lifetime score,
I think is American Conservative Union rating score was less
than four percent. And that's being kind. I think we
were round they were rounding up at the time. So look,
I mean, he's your typical true and true liberal, progressive,
whatever you want to call him. It was I thought
when you mentioned the censure part of this, which the
(45:16):
liberal media really isn't putting anywhere near him, and definitely
not in the first couple of paragraphs of his oh bit,
but it was significant. I mean it was significant at
the time.
Speaker 1 (45:26):
It was.
Speaker 8 (45:26):
I mean, he's one of I think thirty plus people
ever to be censured by the House and it was
the first time in like thirty years or something like
that had happened, and Nancy Pelosi had to actually read
the vote there in the well of the Chambers, So
you know that that was a very tough thing. But look,
bottom line is, you know who was he? He wasn't
Congressman Wrangle. He wasn't Representative Wrangle. He was Charlie from Harlem.
(45:48):
And I think if you kind of see it that way,
let's remember that ethics scandal and the censer. Let's remember
he won reelection after that. So he's got a little
bit of a Trump in him, not to compare Trump
and Wrangle. And I'm not suggesting guilt or innocence. I'm
just simply saying he's got resilience, is my point. And
and you got to give him that.
Speaker 1 (46:07):
Jake, Yeah, and that voice he had the voice of
its own voice.
Speaker 8 (46:13):
I'm Charlie Range.
Speaker 1 (46:14):
I mean, I'm Charlie Wrangle. If you didn't, you know,
I mean he sounded like he had a cigar in
his mouth, even though he didn't. And it was a
it's a New York that's really it's it's a New
York gone by David. I don't see people like Charlie Wrangle,
love them or hate them in New York politics anymore.
And that's something I miss. I missed the characters. You know,
AOC just doesn't even have a personality. In my opinion,
(46:36):
it's retainly not one that isn't grading. Charlie Wrangle wasn't
grading on me as much as he definitely annoyed me politically.
But you know what won't be annoying the next two
hours here in Real America's voice, because the big show,
American Sunrise is coming up a lot of news to cover. Remember,
you've already missed the day of this week of news,
so you need to get back on track. American Sonrise
coming up next. I'll see you tomorrow.
