Speaker 1 (00:09):
And you're looking at the New York Stock Exchange, folks,
where the market is just closed. April tenth, another volleyble day,
another very very valli day where we seem to have
these extremely days lately. Market ending down down down one
thousand points, twenty four or so points, SMP down one
hundred and eighty nine, NASDAC down seven hundred and thirty seven.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
There is some big.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Moves on the downside today, and again after that massive
move up yesterday. So yesterday we were looking at that
and the down was up twenty nine hundred and sixty
four points, gave about a third of it back today,
So trying to figure that at one point is down
over twenty three hundred points day.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
So we're seeing.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Massive volatility because the market, the money people, the people
around the globe who all come to Wall Street to
bet on what's happening next, are trying to figure out
what's happening next.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
And you know, again, in one.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Day alone, one single day alone, yesterday, we had in
the morning we'll never move away from these these tariff's
positions that the Trump administration has put on the world.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
And at one eighteen yesterday we saw.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Them move to a ninety day pause with some caveats,
markets exploded three thousand points up. Today people are saying, well,
what does it mean? Are these deals in place? Volatility
is here and probably here to stay for the foreseeable future,
especially when China is trying to play hardball with the
United States. Now, the insane nature of this, I can't
(01:34):
explain it. I can tell you I've done this for
a long time. I was on Wall Street for fifteen
years before I ever started TV seventeen years ago, and
I'll tell you know all this stuff that's going on
Wall Street. What I don't know is when China thinks
that because they're providing us with cheap goods, we're the buyer,
that they can play hardball with us.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
The world could have like the world.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Could have said, you know what, Trump, go screw yourself,
We're going to play hardball with you. But they were
smart and they said, ah, let's make trade deals. Let's
make sure that our individual countries are going to be okay,
with the United States the largest consumer of every single
one of these countries.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
They were smart.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
China holding out alone has put themselves in a corner.
They painted themselves in the corner. I hope to think
that Trump and in the administration is playing forty chess
by saying, you know, we're going to raise all these tariffs.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
We're going to let them all down.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
If China doesn't play ball, we're going to keep it
on them, pointing the finger of China. It may be
a brilliant strategy, too soon to tell. Market's still weeding
out what they like what they don't like from this.
So that said, let's get some inside information nine inside
information tech in the trading world. It's inside baseball information
from Special Assistant to the President and Principal Deputy Press
(02:47):
Secretary Harrison Fields.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Harrison, really good to have you on, my friend.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Glad you're here, and I look at the White House
in the background, a lot going on. We saw the
cabinet meeting today. We'll get to the inflation number, which
is really good for you guys, fantastic, But you just
give us a sense inside the comm shop. You guys
are tasked with a very difficult job to put out
what the president's thinking and saying that's literally what your
job is, but also putting out in a way that
(03:12):
doesn't alarm people if it's something that could be concerning
and also doesn't give false hope to other folks. So
give us a sense of especially how is the tariff
situation going from inside sixteen hundred.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Well, the easy thing for us, Eric is that President
Trump has been consistent on this issue. Thirty plus years ago,
when he was just an ordinary citizen that was running
New York City as a business mogul, he was on
top of terriffs before tariffs became news on the street.
And you know who else was also on top of
the issue of tariffs, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, shared Brown,
(03:50):
all prominent Democrats who ten twenty thirty years ago sounded
like a maga Republican And then today they're making it
seem like we are out to destroy our country and
the world. So you really can't make this stuff up.
It was common practice, it was good politics to stand
for the American worker. I don't know when that ended,
but President Trump is bringing that back. Why have we
(04:12):
relinquished control of Detroit, of Milwaukee, of Buffalo, New York
to China, Vietnam, and Cambodia. President Trump is standing up
for the United States of America, And that's exactly what
this tariff policy is doing. And The good news is
we have north of seventy five countries who have been
begging down the doors of this White House ensuring that
we communicate and work on a better deal, not just
(04:34):
for America but for their countries. Again, only possible because
of the leadership of President Trump.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah, and Harrison, I agree with you. I think the
way this has played out, I didn't see it coming.
I'm always just be fully transparent here in my audience
with Talia. I'm a free market person. I don't like
government getting involved in the markets in any way, shape
or form. I like small government. I'm libertarian. When the
world came and said we don't want this fight and
(05:00):
China didn't come, it actually played exactly into Trump's hands.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Was that the plan all along?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Or did just happen to be just complete fortunate situation
a string of situations.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Well, the President understands she very well. He's dealt with
him for four years and here he is dealing with
him again. And I'll tell you this that President Trump
is always going to be playing chess when the Chinese
are playing checkers, and they unfortunately are in an ocean
and they're looking for a lifeline right now, and President
Trump will always be here to negotiate, but that deal
has to not just reflect the tariff situation. China's doing
(05:39):
so much more on the back end with currency manipulation,
devaluing a lot of our goods when it comes to
the theft of IP and a host of other things.
That is putting American companies at a disadvantage when they
do work in China. But we also realize that American
companies were tired of this, and this is why they
started moving to places like Korea and moving places to Vietnam, Cambodia.
(06:00):
So there's a lot of different elements when it comes
to China. President Trump understands exactly how they operate, which
is why he increased the tariff burden on that nation.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
And we are not.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Afraid, Eric, you talked about it very well. They need
us more than we need them, and they will soon
come to the table because working with the United States
on this fight is the smart thing to do for
the people of China. And I think President she is
going to come around and realize that America is back
in the driver's seat. You don't have a president who
wasn't even in the car. When you look at Joe
(06:31):
Biden and I think this is all going to be
resolved very well.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Yeah, so China needs us more than we need them.
I'm just blown away at the left, these liberals who
are literally I'm looking at Tim Walls Chearing Tesla going down,
an American company completely domiciled in the state of Texas.
I'm watching various talking heads who are very liberal that
have always been Biden and Obama supporters, who are actually
(06:57):
were happy when the market was tanking because it was
President Trump's idea and it was his terrify idea. When
it went up three thousand points yesterday, they had the
long faces they were they were more concerned when the
market was going up and America was getting healthier again,
the economy was getting healthier, the markets were getting healthier.
And it strikes me is that these people are so
(07:18):
deranged hate Trump in the administration so much that they'll
have they'll put suffering on themselves and their constituents just
so President Trump isn't proven right on anything.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Literally.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Yeah, it's a devastating reality of today's Democratic Party, who
was led by a Jasmine Crockett of all people. The
reality is President Trump was elected because of a Democratic
Party that it completely ignored the concerns of everyday Americans.
They lied to the American people and said that inflation
was transitory. They lied and said we weren't in a
recession when we had two quarters of negative growth. They
(07:54):
said that the border was secure, They said that we
were entering a world of peace when war was raging
and we were on the brink of World War three.
So the Democrats really have no legitimacy. And right behind
them is the media that has zero credibility, and we
deal with them every single day. So the reality is
President Trump is here on an unprecedented mandate by seventy
seven million Americans. We have a House and a Senate
(08:15):
that is on the verge of passing historic tax cuts,
the regulation, border security, and a host of other great
things for this country to get our fiscal house back
in order. And this is only in three months. So
could you imagine what the next three and a half
years is going to look like. We are moving full
steam ahead, despite the lawsuits, despite the craziness, and President
Trump is committed to look great.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
So I'm going to qualify this Harrison. I don't know
if we've ever met personally, been doing this a long time.
I've been doing numbers. I've been doing statistics, and just
the guys will tell you, I crunch numbers like crazy.
Within a couple hours of the announcement of the tariffs,
and Howard letting it brought out that big board with
the numbers, and I was looking at it and it
just wasn't computing.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
It just wasn't working for me.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
And when it doesn't work up here for me, I
know it is something wrong with the numbers. I'd figure
out that the methodology to come up with the tariff
that we were going to slap on other countries had
nothing to do with the actual tariff or we're half
of what they're doing. It had to do with our
trade imbalanced number divided by the amount of exports that
country was putting into our country.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And for me, I was just like, can't Howard.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Just come up with It's like a real And I
literally called the White House and said, guys, I figured
this out. I need you guys to get in front
of it before the Left figures out and holds you
accountable to it. And they did, and I wished that
would have been clean. And I know they sent Trump
out there without him even really knowing what that know
how that number was calculated.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
That ticked me off. Here's my point.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
I have a really important idea for you guys, and again,
and I Steve Ban and I talk about it every day.
Lookified natural gas. We are an abundant producer of LNG
in this country. The Left doesn't want us to produce it,
doesn't want us to export it. Get the LNG deal
with China, Give China a deal of our with our LNG,
get them to drop their tariffs, and all of a sudden,
(09:58):
you want to see a stock market, equity market, a
labor market, a housing market, and everything market explode.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
In America. Will be in the top of the heap
of all that boom.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Cause yet you hold China accountable and they have to
play ball because they need gas, they need energy products.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Well, Eric, you're a big thinker, and I appreciate the
recommendations that I'm sure the people making those decisions are
watching your program right now and they'll take note of it.
But I'll tell you this, President Trump is in the
driver's seat. He understands how these numbers work, and they're
a reflection of not just the tariffs and the deficits,
but also the other aspects of trade that have completely
imbalanced the relationship, not just of recent history, but for
(10:41):
long history. So that's where those numbers came from. And
the reality is now we're back to ten percent baseline
for every trading country minus China, and then some of
the sectorial tariffs are still in pact. But the reality
is the American people are supportive of this action because
they are tired of being taken advantage of again, and
they also know that countries are coming to the table
and we're negotiating great trade deals. So that's where that
(11:04):
stands right now. When you talk about LNG, we have
a great secretary and secretary right who is now taking
off the shackles of that industry, and we are producing
LNG and exporting it once again at historic levels. So
we are making tremendous progress when it comes to LNG.
We've got the best stuff in the business. Of course,
China would want to leverage that relationship and take some
of our leg and we'll see what happens. These negotiations
(11:26):
are ongoing, and I'll let the leaders of those negotiations
play with what trading aspects we're going to use.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
And one this topic that we started here and is
very very important. You guys are this super super success
story right here. Inflation. You guys are bringing inflation down
and legitimately, none of this games with statistics. Legitimately, inflation
is down. The two point thirty nine percent that was
announced a CPI today fantastic, more than a point lower
(11:56):
than it was a year ago under Joe Biden's last
few months before he went way a third almost a
quarter of it was at the peak of Joe Biden's
nonsense Bidenomics. Egg price is coming down. Gas price and
by the way, folks, with this new latest round of
tariff in market reaction, oil prices are down. Gasoline prices
are going to go down a dollar a gallon in
(12:17):
the next forty five days. Mark my words, this is
great news for your congratulations. Take a victory lap on
that one, Harrison.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Oh definitely.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
I mean my home state of Florida is seeing thirty
to forty cent decreases from last year. We're seeing across
the board decreases when it comes to gas prices, which
is impacting every single day Americans. You know this as
an economic wizard that when gas prices, when fuel prices.
When energy prices are low, that is going to have
a positive effect throughout the entire economy because our economy
(12:48):
runs on energy. Inflation is coming down and America is rising,
which is a great thing.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
You know.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
It's a bad thing for the Democratic Party when all
they can focus on is that eggs had a slight
increase in price is days before Easter, in which eggs
are being bought at an observed amount. A third level,
that would be like them talking about how the price
of Hershey's are going up days before Halloween. This is
just how this stuff works. When you look at wholesale prices,
those prices are staying low, they're going even lower. Retail
(13:17):
usually catches up, as you know very well. But the
good news is and inflation is on a decline, and
what's going up jobs. We are creating more jobs, beating expectations.
The economy is on a firm fitting and we haven't
even got into tax cuts yet, which is on the
way right.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yep, you just passed the budget and you got that
on the way as well. Harrison, Harrison Fields, you're a
great spokesperson for this administration. We'd love to get you
back again real soon. Because I like having these kind
of these little bit more number focused discussions. Most people
can't handle it, and I love having you on. You're
doing a great job, Harrison Fields, Special Assistant to the
President and Principal Deputy Press Secretary.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Doing a great job, my friend, my pleasure.

So two days ago we did an interview with Gordon
Chang about China. He's an expert on all things China.
We got blown out by the President that day. He
had some announcements. Yesterday we got blown out by the
President again. We were unable to air that interview. I
(16:13):
want to air it now and I just want you
to know it's still it still lives. It's two days later,
but everything Gordon and I spoke about are still in play,
especially with the tariffs. They've moved around a little bit
with the numbers of the tariffs, but nothing has changed.
China is still our number one adversary and there's still
the world's bad guy. Take a look, all right, folks,
welcome back my next guest and attorney, expert and author
(16:35):
on none other than China. His latest book is called
Plan Read China's Project to Destroy America.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Welcome Gordon Chang.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Gordon, really good to have you back on the show,
my friend, and what important person to be on right
now with this trade war that seems to be sparking up.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Gordon one hundred and four percent.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
So we started with the Trump says that his tariffs
are in response to the tariffs on other countries are
putting on US. So Trump puts a thirty two percent
import tariff on China. They respond with a fifty percent
on America. Trump turns around and says, you want to
play games with us, here's a one hundred and four
percent tariff on all Chinese imports on Gordon I'm looking
(17:17):
at we have a massive trade imbalance at China three
hundred billion dollars the last reportable year. We import electrical machinery, toys, plastics,
furniture vehicles, articles of iron and steel, optic, the list
goes on and on.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
How dangerous is this trade war?
Speaker 7 (17:33):
Well, the trade war is dangerous in this sense that
I think the Chinese regime is going to get desperate.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
They have no way out of this.
Speaker 7 (17:42):
When President Trump promised fifty percent tariffs on China, he
was basically saying to the Chinese regime, look, you cannot
intimidate me. China has no ammunition in this trade war.
The only way they can win is if they force
President Trump to back down. Even though Trump holds the
high cards, as I mentioned, with this fifty percent tariff announcement,
(18:06):
basically Trump was saying, no, you are not forcing us
into submission. And that means China right now probably getting
a little bit desperate, and we don't know what they'll do.
Speaker 8 (18:16):
Eric.
Speaker 7 (18:17):
So, yeah, this is a very precarious and very fragile
time for us.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Courton, you know China, you know Chinese people take us
inside the mind of she sheeshing ping right now, and
the Chinese people for that matter, where I look at
it like this, America's the biggest buyer of stuff around
the world.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
We're the biggest consumer.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
You walk into a mall and you have a massive
amount on your credit card that you can spend. And
then for China say well, we're going to raise your prices.
That's not the way to go. But somehow they're thinking
raising our prices is going to make Trump back down.
Do they not know Trump doesn't back down to anyone?
Speaker 7 (18:54):
Yeah, well they First of all, I don't think they
understand President Trump. But second of all, the Chinese desperately
need access to the US market.
Speaker 6 (19:02):
They need to maintain it.
Speaker 7 (19:04):
If we go back to twenty eighteen for context, when
Trump put on his twenty five percent tariffs, China picked
up somewhere between seventy five to eighty one percent of
the cost of that in order to maintain their share
of the US market. Well, today, for various reasons, China
has even greater motivation to maintain its access to America,
which means we now know they already are trying to
(19:26):
absorb some of those tariffs through weakening their currency. Plus
also increasing their subsidies to Chinese exporters, but they can't
do that for very long and I think they're running
out of cash, so this doesn't leave them with many options.
But you know, President Trump has I think sculped this
out pretty well, as Treasury Secretary of Scott said a
(19:48):
few hours ago. Look, the Chinese are playing cards with
only a pair of twos, and that's actually being quite
generous to the Chinese because I'm not even sure they've
got a pair of anything.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah, well Trump has a pair of something and it
doesn't seem like he's going to back down.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
With that pair.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
And I just I wonder how this plays out because
clearly the equity markets don't like the fighting going on.
So Chijing Ping says, so I'm going to retaliate by
telling you f around and find out Trump, We're going
to raise your import fees what we export into China
to one hundred and formercent with I mean, this is
(20:25):
a game of who can pee further, so to speak,
and guess what we're We're holding the cards because we're
the buyer, they're the seller. I just don't understand the rationale.
I mean, do they believe that the American people are
going to push back on Donald Trump, and they're going
to get some sort of relief that way.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
That's what they're trying to do. And they're trying to
work through the American political system to put pressure on
the White House. So for instance, just you know, just
a few hours ago, they said, well, look we might
are all us movies in China. Well that's an attempt
to get Hollywood on board, to get them to get
the fund and call sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue and say
(21:03):
you got to stop this. But I don't think that
Trump is going to be really susceptible to that, because
he understands that China has been ripping us off for decades.
This is unsustainable. You know, the United States just in general, Eric,
we account for almost half of the world's trade deficits,
and that means we can't sustain that for much longer. So,
(21:25):
you know, one of the things we can say, well
we don't like the way Trump handling this. Well maybe
that's the case.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
But the point I just.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Don't understand why the White House doesn't get this message out.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
We're doing this just so.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
That you lower your tariffs, your your obstructions into your
markets so we can lower ours back down. They've lost
that messaging, Gordon, and instead we're going to ours.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
We're gonna build all this way. Well we'll build it
this way.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Well that's insanity. That's mutual destruction for two major v
two major economies on the globe. I think the Trump
administration needs to say them, calm down, we're going to
lower these When you guys do, and then guess what happens.
You unleash the power of a twenty seven trillion dollar
economy that's seventy percent consumer spending buying all these idiots crap.
(22:15):
They don't realize, but the messaging is being lost by
the White House is losing the messaging battle. I got it,
just a couple of minutes. You want to wait on that,
and I want to talk oil real quick, Gordon.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
Well, Trump is negotiating deals with other countries. More than
seventy countries have a tome contacted the White House to
try to stitch up a trade arrangement. That's good because
it means that we're going to be buying our stuff
from other countries, you know, and there are friends instead
of China, which is an enemy. So I think that
This is going to go in the right direction, but
it's going to take a little time to sort itself out,
(22:46):
and in the meantime it's going to look pretty ugly.
But I think it'll work bet because Trump's grand strategy
is ultimately the right one.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Oil.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
My other big concern here. China needs oil. They don't
produce a lot. They use a lot.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Russia produces a lot of oil.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
They're using some of their war but they can't sell
it because we've embargoed, essentially embargoed their oil, and anyone
else that wants to buy their oil is going to
get embargoed by Trump. So Russia's looking for a home
to sell oil. Perfect match here. The concern is that
both of them tell us to go jump the United States,
and oil goes from Russia to China, money goes from
China to Rush, which they desperately need.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
They leave us out of the picture.
Speaker 7 (23:26):
Yes, Well, one of the good things about Trump is
that he understands that oil and LNG gives the US leverage,
and we're going to be selling a lot more of
that around the world to Europe, so it's not as
dependent on Moscow, but also to our friends in Asia,
especially Japan, South Korea. So Trump's got the right idea
about LNG and oil and we're going to drill and
(23:46):
we're going to sell.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
It'd be amazing if somehow Trump created a deal that
we'll sell you oil.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
You lower your trade.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Barriers, you lower down to where we are, and we'll
bring them down to twenty percent across the board unilaterally,
and we'll tell you some oil and Lerg will ship
some lerg right to you.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
What a deal that would be.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
You want to see a want to see a stock
market in equity markets take offf and want to see
the American economy take off. That's how you do it.
Gordon Shang, really good having you on, my friend. Will
get you back again real.
Speaker 7 (24:13):
Soon, and congratulations on last night in the Gators Chop Chop.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Thank the hard rock bet people for paying off that
bet right away. Gordon, really good talking to talk to
you against soon my friend. But hi, folks, will moving
back in. Always good talking to Gordon. But before I
had to break, I just want to remind you all
about my podcast and YouTube page, which are both updated
daily and let you hear the show, this show and
tons of other new unique content anytime anywhere, be sure
(24:40):
to subscribe now, don't forget to subscribe so.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
You never miss a minute. You're back in two minutes.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
All right, welcome back with the Hello skycam. With a
recent reciprocal tariffs being implemented, folks are concerned their medications
are going to be become more expensive.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Legitimate concern, folks, to give us some insight.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Chief medical board member of the Wellness Company, doctor Drew Pinski,
joins us, doctor.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Drew, Really, really good to have you.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
By the way, a long time man. We've been doing
TV for quite a while. Really good to have you
on for this.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
It's been a minute though. Thank you for having me
and other things.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
So Trump administration this these tariffs on important pharmaceuticals have
raised concerns about rising prescription drug prices.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
What do impact do you think then?
Speaker 1 (25:28):
What do you foresee these having on medication costs and
availability to regular Americans like us?
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Well, you just tucked in the most important thing I suspect,
which is availability. I there could of course be impact
on costs, but I don't think we're going to see
so much cost issues. But these sorts of crises are
just reminders of why were you got the emergency kits
up there in the screen. I see as to why
we created the Wellness Company, why we put together these
(25:55):
emergency kits so patients could be in control of their
healthcare and prepared for these sorts of things. It was
really COVID that sort of woke us all up.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
It's funny.
Speaker 6 (26:05):
Doctor Kelly Victory is on the committee with me, said
at one point, she goes, you know, if we were
doing this five years ago, I would have thought something,
you know, what's wrong?
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Well, I couldn't do.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
This now, she said, this is her quote. Now, I
think you're crazy if you don't do this, And I thought, boy,
she is right. Being ready is the name of the game.
I personally reach into these kids not infrequently, so I'm
glad I have them around. And I thought to myself,
with the recent tariff issues, thank goodness that I am
also stocked up. So should these supply chain issues kick
(26:35):
in or should the price go way up? I have
nothing to worry about for me and my fan.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Interesting, and there are a whole bunch of questions that
you know, we could be talking about.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
I want to ask you.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Stuff just from me because I think this is fascinating.
So I can get prescription drugs in these kits too,
or and how does.
Speaker 6 (26:51):
All that fortion medicine? It's it's done with a telehealth.
We have a national telehealth network. You sign up, you
do an evaluation by telehalth. That particular kit is just
the general emergency kit. We also have the field kit,
which has everything in it. We have pediatrics, we have
radiation kits, anything that you might need, and they come
with manuals. You see the guidebook there in that image
(27:14):
and telehealth backup. Look, these are not well, you have
the supplements in there right now, but these are all
prescription medication and emergency kits for the most part. And
these are not medication you never heard of. These are
the things you go to the doctor to get, you know,
as a patient. We've come to the point now where
the physician patient relationship has been so adulterated by regulators
(27:35):
and insurance companies and lockdowns and crazy pronouncements on high
that we got during COVID. I've given up on that
and I want the patients to have access at all
times with proper guidance.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Doctor Drew talk to us a little bit about China,
and there's concerns with supply chains. There was concerns that,
you know, when COVID came over and all of a
sudden they had all the ppe, the personal protective equipment.
Are we prepared if there were to be another pandemic?
Speaker 2 (28:03):
God forbid?
Speaker 6 (28:05):
Well, look, the one thing that I was preaching about
when this one hit was pleased don't panic. And of
course you got canceled for saying something as outrageous as
keeper wits about you so you can make good decisions.
That's how you knew it was a psyop. By the way,
when they're canceling people with reasonable medical opinions. Jay Bodicharia,
(28:27):
for instance, for me, is the poster child for the excesses,
and the fact that he's now the head, the director
of the NIH National Institute of Health is nothing less
than Shakespearean poetic. It's one of the greatest days when
I heard that he was being considered for that. But yes,
of course we've been very intermingled with China for our
sources for generic medication. We've been very much trusting of
(28:50):
what they were doing in terms of some dangerous research.
I mean, just look what they did with crisper technology.
I heard Joe Rogan today was surprised to hear that
crisper had been used to genetically change twins in China. Yes,
this was a major, major scandal in science, and China
perpetrated it. They claim to take action against the scientists.
(29:10):
I'm not so sure. So. Yes, the fact that we're
bringing it all home is exquisitely important.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Very important, very important.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Okay, I like you take off the wellness company had
often put it on doctor Drew and Bowling who's gone
way back and talk about So you're you're a relationship
expert for a very long time, doctor Drew. If I'm
not mistaken, can you give these two people some relationship advice?
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Ready? Alight, Hijingping and Donald Trump?
Speaker 6 (29:38):
Ah? Well, you know it's interesting that it's a great question,
and because the stage on which this relationship is occurring
I don't mean the evolutionary stage, I mean the world stage.
The implications of this relationship are such that the usual
(29:59):
to rules don't apply. Okay, And we have two people
with very specific personality styles that in reality probably wouldn't
get along, yet would have deep respect for one other.
They would they would admire each other, and if they
can stay in that zone of admiration, and do the
(30:20):
digging without individually insulting each other. See where this is
going to go off the rail is if they get
if they make this personal. Of course it is personal
for both of them on some level, but if they
can maintain their admiration and civility for each other, I
think this will go.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
So here we are.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
The rest of the world is said, Okay, we don't
want to play. We don't want this game. China said, no,
you want to fight. You want to make your walls
this big. Mine's this big? You're you know what is
this big? My cohonis are this big. The two of
them are facing each other right now, and neither one
of them want to have their constituents look at him
say you back down. So how do you de escalate
(30:59):
when the two of them are, you know, basically pointing out,
you know, mutual destructive guns at each other.
Speaker 6 (31:05):
And I think I heard Scott be sent saying that
this ultimately was a was a trap for China that
they stepped into. That Trump was fully prepared to go
ballistic on his end to the point where China is
in trouble economic that they're they're in trouble in terms
(31:27):
of their debt, their trouble in terms of their demographics.
And Trump knows this, and she is dealing with a
master negotiator. I mean she is not. That's not his thing.
He's an executive administrator. Trump is the negotiator. He has
the upper hand now. And it seems to me it's
(31:47):
not going to be a de escalation. It's going to
be a working through process that's going to take a
long time.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
I don't know that.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
Well, we'll know we're close to the resolution when nobody's happy,
because we're not going to get to a place where
everybody's happy with China.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
That is it.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
That's you know you've done a great job negotiating when
you're kind of happy, but no one's really happy to
either seeither side happy, Doctor Drew Love, Yeah, I'm sorry,
made you play a little relationship game with us.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
It's all good.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
We'll do it again. Good talking to your friend. All
feel We will be back in two and a half minutes.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Honey, Okay, okay, beautiful bleach sir.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
All right, folks, you've heard me talk about my Patriots
supply because I trust them when it comes to my
family as well being. And I just got word they're
doing something they've never done before. Right now, you can
get the best selling Mega three month emergency food supply
for the same price as the standard kit. That's more
than three hundred and sixty dollars of real beef, real chicken,
plus farm fresh fruits and vegetables.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Included at no extra charge.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Even better, this kit now gives you twenty five hundred
calories per day, more than any other emergency food supply
I've ever seen. And let's be honest, when things go sideways,
you're gonna need more than just survival.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
You need strength, you need energy, you need real food.
This kit will be there when you need.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
It stays fresh for up to twenty five years, and
it ships fast and discreetly. If you've been waiting for
the right time, this is it. Go to Mypatriotsupply dot
com and claim your Mega Kit.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Wow, this offer lasts. That's my Patriot Supply dot Com.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Alrighty friends, I think we finally found something the liberal
left lunatics love more than Venezuelan and violent gang members
who are in our country illegally. They like the Chinese
Communist Party even better.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
The trade.
Speaker 5 (33:48):
Honestly, the trade is asymmetrical, and we voted for Donald
Trump precisely, trade is asymmetrical with China. We imported over
four hundred and thirty nine billion products from China, we
export it over one hundred and forty billion from China.
Their own foreign ministry has said, we will not flinch,
We will not genuflect to Abullian government. I respect even.
Speaker 3 (34:07):
Tiffany that we rely so much on an adversary to
make most of our goods.
Speaker 5 (34:11):
Listen, whether it bothers me or not is irrelevant. It
is important because that is why it is.
Speaker 9 (34:16):
You're okay if we continue to put our own economic
and national security future in the hands of our biggest enemy,
because effectively they use slave labor to build stuff, and
that makes.
Speaker 2 (34:28):
A love hating America so much. So, is this what
it is? We should continue with the.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Status quo with our adversary, our biggest advertisary. That woman says, so,
they love violence with the most, They love gang bangers
the most, they love terrorists the most, they love Ukraine
the most, the left, and they also now love Chinese
communists the most. Well, if we're giving out prizes, then
this guy right here might love the Chinese more than most. Oh,
(35:00):
who loves a Chinese spy has something to say about
tariffs too, Specifically, the walking embarrassment to this country named
Eric Swallwell has a message for President Trump.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
And you don't know what you're doing. You don't have
a clue what you're doing. And by the way, you
look weak. You put these tariffs in place, you say
they're non negotiable, you don't get anything in return, and
then you put a pause on them.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
You just lie.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Call me crazy if it maybe, just maybe the guy
who bedded a Chinese spy, Feng Fang, should just keep
his trap shut about being weak, just saying.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
But I digress on purpose. So are we just steps.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
Away from seeing CCP flags replacing Ukrainian flags in democrats
social media bios? Are we about to see pro CCP
marches down our busiest blue streets, main streets across Democrat cities.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Let's find out, Let's get into it.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Part of the showdown on tariffs has been about identifying
who our friends are and who our enemies are.
Speaker 2 (36:03):
I think it's pretty clear.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
While some countries momentarily mold over retribution, most of them,
if not all of them, either decided against it or
changed their minds regardless of whether or not it was
President Trump's full intention to do so, and I believe
it was giving his negotiations skills out of the deal.
This much is clearer. China has been and remains our
(36:25):
major adversary. But you see, this whole thing also exposes
the Left and their true love of China. And while
that may not have always been the case.
Speaker 10 (36:35):
We're bringing a new trade case against China, and we're
being joined by Japan and some of our European allies.
Speaker 7 (36:41):
I tend to more agree with President Trump than I
did with President Obama on Bush on trade.
Speaker 11 (36:47):
How far does China have to go, how much more repression,
how big a trade deficit and loss of jobs for
the American worker, and how much more dangerous proliferation has
to exist before members of this House of Representatives will
say I will not endorse the status quo.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Pretty much sounds like those liberal Democrats, Obama and Pelosi
were all four slapping tariffs on China when they hit
the ball. So you see, well it may not always
have been the case that the Left has a love
affair with China, it seems very true now.
Speaker 10 (37:23):
And that's why I want to say again, the United
States welcomes the rise of a China that is peaceful, stable, prosperous,
and a responsible player in global affairs.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
He welcomes China's rise.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Oh, I'll bet you do, Barak, you good little globalist soldier.
You you see, it all started with Barack Obama. When
the New World Order found their willing American soldier in
Barack Obama, useful idiot. China's rise became celebrated, supported so
long as it's you know, peaceful. The leftist pr machine
was hard at work framing China's rise is a good thing,
(37:58):
good for American, good for the world, the left is said,
and the love affair with one of the world's worst
human rights abusers was born, and now the left.
Speaker 2 (38:07):
I love China.
Speaker 11 (38:09):
I was a little girl. I was told at the beach,
if I dug a hole deep enough, we would reach China.
So we've always felt a connection there.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
Whatever.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
Yeah, that's right, China is just the best, says their
eager former Canadian employee.
Speaker 12 (38:27):
A level of admiration I actually have for China because
their you know, basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually
turn their economy.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
Around on it. Oh yeah, so admirable.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Justin wass he a left is just a door as
a dictatorship, don't they? All of them explains a whole
heck of a lot, and to a democrat dictatorship as well.
Speaker 11 (38:54):
Freeing China is one of the freest societies in the world.
Speaker 13 (39:00):
We don't take it from me.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
That's from freedom house them.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Leftist loves them some China and hates them some America,
don't they. The left loves a country that sends the
gift of a killer virus to the world. They love
how they made it, China spread it and then China
covered it all up. The left loves the ways, the
communism ways, their total control. The left loves China, and
(39:23):
this is what we've come to. And now they're freaking
out because President Trump is holding China's feet to the fire,
something left once believed in. He's holding them accountable. After
Barack Obama and Joe Biden let China have their way
with our economy with lopside to trade, after China spent
years adjusting their currency to make it worse for us
more advantageous for them, stealing our technology left and right,
(39:48):
and our patents in intellectual property. President Trump is always
known and understood that truth that China has dreams of
dominating the world.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
They do.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
They want to take us over. Barack Obama and then
Joe Biden were in.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
Full support of that, two useful idiots. But it wasn't
just that. That's not all.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
It turns out that it wasn't just our leftist politicians
who were in bed with the Chinese Communist Party Furora
really speaking, well, not really swallowll but I digress again.
On purpose, it turns out that Mark Zuckerberg's Meta Facebook
at the time actively helped China in the race get
this to develop AI artificial intelligence faster than us in America.
(40:29):
Former Meta executive turned whistleblower Sarah Wynn Williams said as
much in a bombshell Senate hearing yesterday.
Speaker 13 (40:36):
So I want to just be clear about this here
in this document, Facebook is talking about making Chinese user
data available to the Chinese government because they're going to
store that data in China.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Is that correct?
Speaker 13 (40:47):
Core, But when you store that data in China Americans
who exchanged messages or other information with Chinese Facebook users,
that would mean the Chinese government could get access to
the American data as well.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Is that correct?
Speaker 14 (41:00):
Through the pop servers potentially, Yes.
Speaker 13 (41:02):
And Facebook was willing to take that risk.
Speaker 14 (41:06):
Yes, there was a lot of discussion about this, and
ultimately yes, I.
Speaker 13 (41:10):
Mean this is this is extraordinary. This is exactly contrary
to what Facebook has represented for years. Here they're willing
to build data centers store data in China. They are
willing explicitly to give the Chinese government access to it,
and if that means that American user data is also compromised,
they're willing to do that.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
So Zuckerberg, Facebook Meta gave access to our data to China.
Speaker 2 (41:33):
Seriously, this is pure treason.
Speaker 14 (41:36):
I saw Meta executives repeatedly undermine US national security and
betray American values.
Speaker 6 (41:44):
They did these.
Speaker 14 (41:45):
Things in secret to win favor with Beijing and build
an eighteen billion dollar business in.
Speaker 1 (41:52):
China, repeatedly undermining our national security, betraying American values. Wwinn
Williams was Facebook's former director of Global Public Policy, and
she says that Meta gave briefings to the Chinese Communist Party,
gave the CCP access to our data, not hacked, not stolen,
hand it over on a silver platter.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
Given that is treason. This and it's betrayals.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Not just forget that China is our adversary. The left
wants us to forget that. The globalist and New World
Order soldiers want us to forget that.
Speaker 2 (42:24):
But don't forget it.
Speaker 15 (42:27):
I filed a bill yesterday to deny now student visas
to Chinese students because China has just passed a law
that now requires every national to gather intelligence, including Chinese
students here studying gather intelligence, and.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Chinese police stations in the US cities spying on us
from their own police stations within our cities. Chinese buying
up our farm land, buying data and secrets from our
own companies, telling students to collect data and report back
to Beijing.
Speaker 2 (42:57):
The left can admire China all they want.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
President Trump understands and remembers exactly who our enemies are
and how to deal with them after years and years
of Democrats bending the knee.
Speaker 2 (43:09):
And that's exactly what Maggot is all about. And that, folks,
is exactly what I voted for.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
Before we go, I just want to remind you about
my podcast and YouTube page, both updated daily. Let you
watch and hear this show, but also tons of other
new content anywhere anytime. Be sure to subscribe now, don't
miss out subscribe right there back into and alflute. That's
(43:47):
a little bit of a tease that we're going to
talk to mister Bannon about. First we have a little
bit the Seinfeld Show music, and then we bump in
with By the way, macouch China is it competes with
Las Vegas as the gaming capital of the world.
Speaker 2 (44:03):
Vegas is clearly number one.
Speaker 1 (44:05):
Macou China is probably very close to them as far
as dollars won and lost city mccou china, I've never
been there of a big gambler and into Vegas gazillion times.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
I'd like to see macaw. Let's bring in Steve Bann
and Steve good have you my friend? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (44:20):
Now took a bit of a hit today, but a
nice rally off the bottom too. His twenty three hundred
lower ended up a thousand lower. Kind of crazy. I
guess people are just digesting what's going on.
Speaker 2 (44:31):
But something we talked.
Speaker 1 (44:32):
About yesterday, did they play forty chess and paint she
jing ching chesing ping into a corner by having the
rest of the world say we'll play ball China, You're
not gonna play ball. We're going at you. Mono a
mono that that seems like a brilliant strategy. I don't
think Howard Lutink smart enough to come up with that, though.
Speaker 8 (44:53):
Ah, we're gonna find out we're in a We're now
engaged in the economic war. The CCP has been running
against us for you know, twenty years, but particularly since
Mayo twenty nineteen.
Speaker 6 (45:04):
You mentioned Macau.
Speaker 8 (45:06):
I think it's the top two or three casinos in
Las Vegas. The American domoicile casinos make essentially all their
cash flow in Macau.
Speaker 6 (45:16):
The ones in Vegas will break even.
Speaker 8 (45:18):
So Macaumcau, Macau?
Speaker 6 (45:21):
Await you brother of bowling?
Speaker 2 (45:23):
It waits my us greenback? Is what it waits? Hey?
Mad dog? Play it sound by? We just played to
see if.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
I'm sure you've heard a bunch today, But I'd love
to hear your thoughts on Meta. You know, senior executive
at Meta telling the world that they were giving our information,
important information about Americans, handing it over to the CCP.
Speaker 14 (45:40):
Listen, I saw Meta executives repeatedly undermine US national security
and betray American values.
Speaker 2 (45:49):
They did these.
Speaker 14 (45:50):
Things in secret to win favor with Beijing and build
an eighteen billion dollar business.
Speaker 2 (45:58):
Definition of treason, though.
Speaker 6 (46:03):
Pretty close.
Speaker 8 (46:04):
This is why I believe, given all the pressure Eric
that the head of the head of a Meta Zuckerbucks
is put on President Trump. I think the trial in
list of anything's broken since I've gotten into the get
Ready for the world. I think the trial starts Monday
in Washington, d C. I think it's the FTC taking
(46:24):
them to court. It'll be first of many. But they
have put tremendous pressure on President Trump in his administration
to basically get rid of this. But that whistleblower is brutal.
We had her on the show and she just goes
through list after list after list of how they've lied
to people, how they worked the Chinese Commis Party. I mean,
Zuckerberg's a thoroughly big guy. I say it all the time.
I think he's a criminal. I think he's a criminal
(46:45):
loan for what he did in twenty twenty. You add
this on top of it. I agree with you, sir,
I think it is treason ectomy.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
I'm handing over our vital information, not even selling it.
I'm either handing it over for I think favor with
the Chinese National Park already for what reason you want
to tap into the Chinese consumer. Fine, but why are
you handing it over to Beijing?
Speaker 8 (47:10):
Well, to calto, That's that's what they do. Remember all
if you want to have and they're talking about delisting
the Chinese companies. Here, we're gonna talk about the show
day the sec This is a major strategic move. But
if you actually go into China, you have to form
a joint venture where they basically take your intellectual property.
And so Meta and companies like this go out of
their way to basically kowtao to the Chinese Communist Party.
(47:31):
Remember the tranest commiss Party is just another dynasty. It's
just like the emperors of old, and Zuckerberg would go
and just calto to them and give them everything. I
mean her book and her eyewitness accounts of this, and
you can tell something's up, Eric, because they went out
of their way to try to crush her. They went
out a way to try to suppress They went to
the publisher I think it's McMillan, one of the oldest
(47:52):
publishers in the world, very prestigious, and they went to
McMillan put preussure in.
Speaker 2 (47:56):
Them not to release the book.
Speaker 8 (47:57):
So that tells you right there. How Radio act of
this material is and kind of how these big tech
companies behind your back are really cow telling to h
to communists.
Speaker 2 (48:08):
Crazy great, how does this end? Steve?
Speaker 1 (48:09):
You know you got to Shijing Ping. I had doctor
Drew in a little while ago, talked about the relationship.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
Guru. I was like, I got two folks.
Speaker 1 (48:17):
I'm trying to figure out how they're going to fix
this relationship, Shijing Ping and Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
They got two big egos. How does it? How does
this How does this fix itself? I don't think it
does fix itself.
Speaker 8 (48:31):
I think they've been they've been an unrestricted warfare against
the United States for twenty twenty five years. They when
they didn't sign the deal President Trump for two years
the first few years administration had Lightheiser Navara full time
on this huge deal with Lee Hood, the like number.
Speaker 6 (48:45):
Three guy in the in the regime, and in May.
Speaker 8 (48:48):
After me with putin in One Belt, one Road, they
said no, whyn She Sean said told she, if you
signed this up, you're always going to be subservient to
the Americans, to the foreign devils.
Speaker 2 (48:57):
And they didn't do it.
Speaker 8 (48:58):
And since then they had cleared to People's war and
