Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm struggling with something here, Casey, I'm going to need
you to help me out because there's a lot of
things that are always going on in this brain of mine,
and sometimes I feel like maybe I misheard something, But
then I go and read various news articles that confirm
that I heard what I thought I heard, so that
(00:23):
I'm wondering maybe did all of humanity mishear something, because
there's no way like the President United States would just
lie about brazenly lie. And so this is where I
need you, as the voice of reason, to step in
and help me out here. Because I was told that
(00:45):
the tariffs, everybody should chill out about the tariffs because
the tariffs were going to come back to us in some.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Sort of rebate.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
I heard that too, and then I was told the
tariffs were going to be used to pay well. I
think first they said that tariffs are going to pay
down the debt. I think the order of this is,
tariffs are going to pay down debt.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Correct, tariffs are going to come to taxpayers, right.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
And I think at the time you and I had
had this conversation and I had said, first of all,
he's full of it. The tariff money is going to
be used to grow government or pay to continue government
at current levels. But if I had to choose, I
would much whether you pay off the debt because stop
printing money. Everything is unaffordable because you printed money. What
(01:31):
happened in twenty twenty, Casey.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
They printed money, right, things got expensive.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
They threw checks at the taxpayers.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Just stay home and not work.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
But I think we had said at the time, Bull
he's full of it. We won't see a dime of it.
None of it's going to go to pay down the debt.
It's going to go to legalized vote buying, because that's
what Republicans do.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
And now what are they proposing to do with the money, Casey.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Two different things. They're saying that the tariff revenue will
fund Wick during the shutdown, and they've also said that
it's going to go to farmers because Donald Trump told
reporters yesterday he plans to quote do some farm stuff
this week.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Oh so, what happened to us? Oh no, seriously, what
happened to us, mister president. I thought we were supposed
to get that money because we're being charged more for
everything because of your stupid tariff policy with no coherent
plan on what you're actually trying to accomplish or when
it's over.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I thought that was the deal.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Maybe it's like a prize wheel in the Oval office,
you know, you spin the wheel and see what it
lands on.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I thought you told us that you were going to
reduce the national debt with the tariff money.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Maybe there's so much tariff money coming in he can.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Do it all.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Oh, because he just announced another tariff. I don't know
if you caught this one. This one is for twenty
five percent tariff on medium and heavy duty trucks imported
to the US. Sure, that's supposed to go into effect
on November.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
First, So let me let me make sure I understand
this correctly. You make a promise to us that don't
worry about paying more for things because of terroists, which
everybody is, because you'll get that money back in a
rebate check. Then you spend all of your time as
president on domestic domestically, working on a bill that is
(03:21):
loathed by the American people because they see it for
what it is, it's a giant legalized vote buying operation,
instead of spending that time figuring out how to fully
fund and operate the government in a more efficient effective
manner so you don't need as much of our money.
And then because of the shutdown, because the Republicans are
doing a victory lap over Biden level spending in priorities.
(03:42):
You don't want people to be mad at you because
your policies aren't working. So instead of doing what you
promised us you were going to do, which is, hey,
we're all in this together, and I'll take care of
you by these checks, which will offset the increase of
price of goods and services, you're just gonna give it
to a bunch of people who are already getting government
freebies anyway. Oh and we'll call it quote unquote farming.
(04:02):
But let's just say what it is for the most part.
Let's just say what a lot of farming is in
this country anymore. It's mega corporations making bookoo dollars.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
It's not the.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Local farmer anymore that's doing getting the most benefit. It's
giant mega corporations that give to your campaigns.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Well, it's not the first time he's done it.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Like, I'm just like, you know what I hate most
about this casey, but that our country is so future
when it comes to politicians, that the only choices I
had were Donald Trump and Kamala Harrison. I had to
pick Trump because at least he would secure the border.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Yeah, yeah, that was it.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Like, that's it. That's the choices I had in this country.
That's what the two parties have given me, Donald Trump
or Kamala Harris. I hate everything about this.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
So during Trump's first administration, they did hand over twenty
billion dollars in farm relief. But the Department, I mean giveaways,
the mega corpse. Yeah, the Department of AG. They're expected
to unveil this new farm relief plan soon. Again, there's
no details about it, just that we're gonna give farmers money. Okay,
can you be specific?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
No, no, no, But I'm done saying we're gonna give farmers money.
We're giving mega corporations money, large corporations that make tons
of cash. They want you to think they're giving it
to the Pittsburgh family farmer, like they're keeping some guy
in James Town afloat and they may get a small
portion of this money.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
But too bad.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Why when I suffer do I never get a bail it?
Who's bailing out the radio industry? Who's helping us? The
answer is nobody. Why are we not all in this together,
which is, hey, farmers, you voted for this guy.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Tell him to knock the tariffs off.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
So back in September, Purdue University did a survey and
they found out that eighty three percent of US farmers
expect another bailout like the ones six years ago.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
They expect it.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
That's the thing everybody should be paying attention to. They
expect it. So Trump lied again. He's not you using
one damn dollar to pay down the debt. He's not
gonna help us. He's going to give it away to
special interest. But people will give to his campaign and
people he wants to keep voting for him. This is
exactly what happened during COVID. There are consequences for actions
of the government. There are the government cannot act and
(06:17):
there not be ramifications, both good and bad. When you
shut society down, people are going to pay. You can
print all the money to try to avoid it you want.
People are going to pay up eventually.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
They did.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
When you charge tariffs, when you make things more expensive
to come into the country in a global economy, people
are going to pay more for it.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
They are.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
You cannot avoid this, and I'm so sick of the
lying by this government making people think that they can
just play sim city all day long and think there's
no ramifications for it.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
So another thing they announced that the tariffs would go
to that is the Wick program, And the White House
Press Secretary said that the Trump administration will not allow
mothers and children to go hungry.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Who's going hungry? We have an O the East City
problem in this country. We talk about it all the time.
How many people are obese? Who's going hungry? Who are
the people that are going hungry? Show them to me,
Bring them to me.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
According to the Treasury Department, US tariff revenue hit thirty
one point three billion dollars in September. Wait a minute,
what is the debt?
Speaker 1 (07:21):
It's thirty seven and a half trillion. Well, let's check.
Let's check the debt clock real quick. I want to
give an accurate assessment. The way we're running up money,
it may be higher than that.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Now. The current US.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Debt thirty seven trillion, eight hundred and thirty nine billion,
five hundred and eleven million in rising by the second.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
So in April seventeen point four billion in tariff money.
In May twenty three point nine billion in June twenty
eight billion and July twenty nine billion, so all of
that tariff money is still not reaching.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
It's the trillions.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
It's a drop in the bucket. It's like doge. It's
irrelevant because they won't stop spending money. They won't stop
legalized vote buying, they won't stop printing money and giving
it to people and acting like they're doing something noble.
It never stops, no matter who's in power, and we
(08:14):
will just continue to pay until everything in this world
gets unaffordable, until you cannot afford living
I'm struggling with something here, Casey, I'm going to need
you to help me out because there's a lot of
things that are always going on in this brain of mine,
and sometimes I feel like maybe I misheard something, But
