Speaker 5 (01:38):
Thank you, Jimmy.

Speaker 6 (01:39):
It's five oh one on kg RH, our top story
this hour.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
He's going to campaign like it's twenty twenty four against.

Speaker 6 (01:46):
White House Chief of Staff Susie Wilds on the mom
View podcast. President Trump kicks off that push later today
in Pennsylvania to promote his economic agenda.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
It's gridlock in the Congress.

Speaker 7 (01:58):
You do only have sixty those of the Senate in
your march in the House is what three votes maybe
four on a good day, So he does need more
votes to help him get through his agenda.

Speaker 6 (02:07):
Gary Polling with the Texas Conservative Review warns that if
Republicans lose Congress, Trump will be a lame duck for
the rest of his term. Trump is threatened to five
percent tariff on Mexico over water treaty violations facing that
is problematic for Texas farmers. Will tell you what else
he did for farmers. At five thirty from Main Street

(02:27):
to Wall Street, the Fed begins its final meeting of
the year today. A decision on interest rates comes tomorrow.

Speaker 8 (02:35):
The economic data seems to indicate that the chances of
a rate cut are pretty good.

Speaker 9 (02:39):
The CME said, watch tools at eighty nine point six percent.
That's obviously pretty good, and that's why I think you've
seen some wind in the sales of the market.

Speaker 8 (02:47):
Certified financial planner Richard Rosso says recent employment data also
points to a December rate cut.

Speaker 9 (02:52):
You see the job freeze that's going on right now
for a multitude of reasons that could obviously push you
to a rate cut.

Speaker 8 (03:00):
Russo added that even if we do see a rate
cut this month, you can still expect even more aggressive
rate cuts next year. Ethan Buchanan News Radio seven forty
KTRH after a down day on Wall Street, futures trading
is up overnight. Oil is at about fifty nine seven
to eight barrel this morning. That is up some eighteen cents,
and Houston gasoline prices ticked down overnight to two forty

(03:21):
nine this morning.

Speaker 5 (03:22):
It's now five oh three.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
I'm a threat to the system that's been holding us
back from our full potential.

Speaker 6 (03:28):
As expected, Texas Democrat Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett enters the Texas
Senate race on the Democrat side of things, She of
course wants to replace John Cornyn, who's in a primary
fight of his zone, the incumbent US senator calling Crockett's
candidacy a quote gift to Republicans and with Crockett in
the race, Colin ol Red drops out, explaining his decision

(03:51):
on CNN.

Speaker 10 (03:51):
Three strong candidates running, though he would certainly have a runoff,
and I felt that that was not in the interests
of the posts.

Speaker 6 (03:58):
He was already pulling third behind Crockett and state Representative
James tall Rico. On the national front, conservatives like Carl
Rove say that Matt Van Epps winning the congressional race
in Nashville by only nine points last week means that
Republicans are headed for trouble next year. Political analyst Chris
Bagalap doesn't buy it.

Speaker 11 (04:19):
Most of the time, political pundits exaggerate and put too
much emphasis on one particular race that is inside of
a state, inside of a district.

Speaker 12 (04:28):
It does importand to the entire country.

Speaker 6 (04:30):
The gal's going to join Jimmy At seven twenty on
Houston's Morning News. On the Democrats side, ESPN, Stephen A.
Smith went toe to toe with the views that would
be Goldberg, saying the Dems need to change course.

Speaker 13 (04:45):
Their entire agendas focused on hating Trump and pushing radical
ideas Americans reject.

Speaker 14 (04:50):
Tell his commentary that Democrats need to focus on winnings
and go for what people care about.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
What's thought on.

Speaker 13 (04:57):
Jennifer Oliver O'Connell of The Red States says dem are
still living in a bubble. Americans really care about crime
and affordability, and they fail to grasp that.

Speaker 14 (05:05):
Obviously, she hasn't had to worry about it, and none
of the view audience has had to worry about it
at all for a long time, so they lose perspective.

Speaker 13 (05:14):
She says, they've become infected with the socialist disease and
there's no cure on right. Berrard News Radio seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 5 (05:21):
NOW five h five.

Speaker 6 (05:22):
The US Supreme Court heard arguments in a case that
could expand President Trump's powers to be able to fire
members of independent agencies. Box legal analyst Jonathan Turley says,
the law on this is clear.

Speaker 15 (05:34):
The President, as the head of the executive Branch, has
Article two powers to conduct the business of the Executive Branch.

Speaker 6 (05:41):
This all started when Rebecca Slaughter sued after being canned
as the head of the Federal Trade Commission this year.
Late last week, the High Court agreed to hear the
birthright citizenship issue. The administration is responding to the video
posted by New York City Mayor elect zorroon mom Donnie
telling illegals how to resist the ice.

Speaker 16 (06:00):
The mayor, if he were mayor, could be violating the
Constitution by giving advice on how to evade law enforcement
and how to get away with breaking.

Speaker 6 (06:09):
The LAWDHS Secretary Christy No. Meantime, another border bus dozens
of gun sees at the southern border as they were
being brought into Mexico. They were found hidden in the
spare tire of a pickup truck crossing the border near McCallum.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Closer to home.

Speaker 6 (06:24):
The Houston Police Officers Union is calling out the Houston
Chronicle for its liberal biased reporting.

Speaker 17 (06:31):
They had a whole episode about this migrant child that
was ripped from his arms of his mother by a
horrible policeman, which just was not the case whatsoever.

Speaker 6 (06:40):
Union President Doug Griffith with ktrh's Michael Berry. The union
posted a me mom's social media last week depicting the
kron As birdcage liner.

Speaker 5 (06:49):
A fifty seven year old man was charged with a
sand finally following an incident with a snowblower.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
You can count Mattress Mac among the many who are
unhappy with the College Football Playoffs Action Committee leaving out
both Notre Dame and the Texas Longhorns.

Speaker 18 (07:03):
Although the College Football Championship is a giant money grab,
they missed the two most popular teams in the country.

Speaker 19 (07:10):
As far as I'm concerned.

Speaker 6 (07:11):

violent crime.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Every day is on news radio seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
Well, first of all, snowball fight not a likely problem
here in Houston, Texas, right, can we agree on that?
Five o eight. By the way, our time as we
get started this morning, Good morning.

Speaker 18 (07:38):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
This story is out of Canada, where you would expect
snow and where you would expect people are used to snow,
because after all, that snow's there probably six seven months
out of the year. Starts in November, runs all the
way through April, maybe in the May. Yeah, they don't
get a lot of summer in Canada. Fifty seven year

(08:00):
old Sue Saint Marie, Ontario man has been charged with
a salt following an incident involving a snowblower shortly after
nine am on December the seventh. Nine to one one
operators received a report of an assault that occurred the
previous afternoon. Oh wait a minute, they took all day
to think about it. The investigation revealed the accused got

(08:22):
into an argument with the victim before intentionally directing snow
from a snowblower at them. All right, so the guys
out there blowing snow might have been like a neighbor dispute.
These things happen over snow in these northern places where
you know you have a snowblower, because you get a
lot of snow, and you're blowing the snow off your driveway,

(08:42):
and you've got your snowblower pointed in the opposite direction
of your driveway, which might be your neighbor's driveway. So
you're blowing your snow onto your neighbor's driveway and the
neighbor comes out. The neighbor's upset because now the neighbor
has to blow your snow off his driveway. And an
argument ensues, and the guy decides to go ahead and
blow know on the guy who's arguing with him. He

(09:04):
has been accused of assault, arrested in fact for assault.
They took him into custody, They put him in handcuffs,
they took him to the local police department. They booked him,
they read him his rights. He's going to have to
go to trial charged with assualt. No physical injuries reported
from the incident. I realized that the definition of assaults

(09:28):
is pretty loose. You got to put your hands on
other people unprovoked. You can't corporal punish under other people's
kids without permission, those types of things. But have we
not gotten counted to the point now where everybody thinks
everything's as salt? I mean, how many stories have we

(09:48):
had of other people like who got angry at somebody
and picked up an apple and threw it at somebody
and hit him in the shoulder and they didn't really
hurt them, but they got arrested for assault. And it
kind of made me more where do you come off
the line of what real assault is versus somebody just
acting out in an angry fashion? Where's the dividing line

(10:11):
in your mind? And have you ever thrown anything really
unusual at somebody? Have been accused of assault for having
done so? What's the what's the strangest object you've ever
thrown at somebody in anger or to get their attention
that somebody could have either construed or misconstrued as assault.
You go to the iHeart radio app KTRH, hit the

(10:32):
talkback button first anime where you're calling from, and we'll
see what you come up with. Five ten time for
traffic and whether together fights? Yeah, have you ever thrown
an object at somebody?

Speaker 18 (10:41):
No?

Speaker 4 (10:41):
I've had food thrown at me, A full plate of stuff.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
That's assault. Evidently you think it was one of my wives.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
And you know you gave me an idea there for
gladiator stuff though. You know you could have like snow
blower fights, and you know we could have like weed
eater clashes, maybe some crash up derby with lawnmowers. Let's
do uh. Let's get on the tip line here, all right.

of the week. Now today, excuse me, I think today's
just going to be like a normal December day.

Speaker 5 (12:30):
But we've got sunshine and no rain.

Speaker 21 (12:32):
In fact, there's no rain until maybe Saturday. So with

I would just reroute, yet I'm going to go ahead

Speaker 2 (15:04):
I live a Katie.

Speaker 22 (15:05):
Your best ways are round Houston. Next on the ten
on seven k t RH five twenty two. Now Here
in Houston's warning News. I don't know how much hate
your average farmer's making right now. That's part of the
problem is where all is consumers, you know, blaming high
prices in some cases on the wrong people. I don't

(15:28):
blame the American farmer for what's going on. They have
they have high overhead, they have you know, fuel prices
thankfully have come down, but they have fertilizer prices, they're
through the roof many of the other things that they
use to you know, to run their farms, to run
their agriculture. It costs money, and in order to be
able to make a profit, you have to be able
to pass that along. President Trump, evidently realizing that the

(15:52):
American family farm is in trouble in some cases they're
on the brink. So he has come up with a
twelve billion dollars eight package ad. The Secretary, Brooke Rowlins,
was on with Larry Kudlow yesterday talking about it.

Speaker 23 (16:06):
We just finished the most incredible hour or so with
the President. We had some of our greatest farmers, not
trade associations or lobbyists, these.

Speaker 19 (16:15):
Are real life farmers.

Speaker 23 (16:17):
Merrill from Louisiana, a second generation rice farmer, Brian from Texas,
a fifth generation corn soybean Gary from West Texas cotton.
I mean, it was really incredible Tyler from Indiana corn.
And the idea was for the President to hear from
those who produce our food every day.

Speaker 24 (16:34):
The mess that we in hiredd from Joe Biden.

Speaker 23 (16:37):
You just talked about that, but in the farming community
it is real. The cost of labor, the cost of
interest rates for their loans which they have to have,
the cost of fertilizer, the cost of seed, and what
the President is doing to completely change the trajectory of
agriculture in America, which ultimately, to your riff, goes directly
to affordability and whether every man, woman and child can

(17:00):
achieve the American dream. So the bridge we talked about,
the bridge to get from the Biden ag economy to
the Trump ag economy is what we were rolling out today.

Speaker 24 (17:09):
But it's so much bigger than that.

Speaker 23 (17:11):
It's how we fundamentally change the economic forward American dream
infrastructure that we inherited to one.

Speaker 24 (17:19):
Of the Golden Age.

Speaker 23 (17:19):
And I just couldn't be prouder to be next to
President Trump and all those farmers today here at the
White House.

Speaker 25 (17:25):
Meanwhile, wages are running well ahead of prices, wages are
beating inflation, even though the little lefty mediaites don't want
to talk about that. Brooke, I mean people, I understand
people are worried. Okay, that's maybe a Biden inherents, but
the fact remains, they really, their actions don't really support

(17:45):
this so called affordability crisis.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
Just saying just so no.

Speaker 5 (17:49):
And Larry, I remember so well.

Speaker 23 (17:51):
It seems like yesterday you here talking about the growthier.

Speaker 19 (17:54):
Economy and growth, growth, growth, and.

Speaker 23 (17:56):
I'm telling you this President he's taken the best of
Larry Cudlow, marrying it to a new America, first energy
that we've.

Speaker 24 (18:05):
Got and the sky's the limit.

Speaker 23 (18:08):
I mean, you haven't mentioned the two and a half
million new jobs that have been created since the President
was torn in all going to American born citizens. This
is amazing, the fastest wage growth in sixty years. Gas
is down, lumber is down, eggs are down. Larry Cudlow,
really everything is coming down. But we believe so sincerely, listen,

(18:29):
we're not tone deaf. We know that America, or a
lot of Americans at least, are like, well, we're still
not feeling the relief. The relief is coming, the structure
is there, the one big beautiful bill, tax cuts go
into effect, Costs are coming down.

Speaker 24 (18:42):
It really is a golden age just right around the corner.
And I am so excited and.

Speaker 23 (18:47):
So grateful as the President now moves out across the
country next year to talk about it, as we continue
the work here in Washington to make sure it happens.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
You'll start that today. By the way, that's what Cliffs
talking about his tripp to Pennsylvania talk about affordability and
some of the things that Trump administration is doing to
try to, if not bring down prices at I think
it's it's kind of ridiculous to say we're going to
bring down prices. The reality is is that the only
thing that brings down prices is deflation. Better off sticking

(19:15):
with the idea that we're going to hold prices steady
and your wages are going to grow, so things become
more affordable again. Five twenty six. Time to take a
look at your money.

Speaker 26 (19:25):
Good morning, ping slips are coming to Pepsi. The drinks
and snacks giants is planning job cuts and instructed a
number of employees, including those in Texas, to work remotely
this week. Companies in recent years have frequently requested staff
to work from home ahead of layoff announcements. Pepsi is
also looking to reduce its product line up by twenty percent,
but didn't specify which items it will stop selling. Checking

(19:48):
in on the markets this morning, stock futures are holding steady.
The Federal Reserve kicking off its two day meeting today.
An interest rate cut is expected tomorrow. Yesterday stock slid
to start the week. The Dow dropped two hundred and
sixteen points, and Ohio based fifty third Bank plans to
invest a total of one point nine billion dollars to

News good. MORNING i assume you got your tree up,
right trees, up trees decorated or is that trees as in?
Plural how Many christmas. Trees do you have a fall

(27:56):
is found that fourteen Percent, americans one out of every,
seven have at least at least Two christmas trees in
their home this. Year, huh isn't that. Interesting we've never
had Two christmas trees before this. Year and the reason
why we have Two christmas trees this year is this

(28:18):
is a perfect example of the RELATIONSHIP i have with
my lovely Wife, elizabeth is That i'm the, spender she's the.
Saver and anytime we buy, something the discussion goes something,
like that's, OUTRAGEOUS i won't pay, that and my response usually, is,
yeah but it's a good quality, piece you're going to
be happy with. It and, then you, know we go

(28:40):
back and. Forth so last year we needed a new artificial.
Tree we went artificial years. Ago they're just easier to
deal with as far As i'm. Concerned no needles dropping
on the floor and all that. Stuff and so we
bought one and we put it at the front window
And elizabeth she ordered it online And elizabeth, said, oh
that's awfully small. TREE i, said that's what happens sometimes

(29:03):
when you order this stuff, Online, honey you, know you
look at the price we, paid you got a cheap.
Tree here's your cheap. Tree so this year we went
out and we, looked and we picked one out where
we could see. It we could see how big it,
was how full it, was how many lights it. Had
but she didn't want to waste the tree that we
bought last. Year so now there's a tree in the

(29:23):
front window that's part of The christmas date core for the.
Neighborhood and then there's the tree in the family room
where we, are which size wise is. Fine it's it's
a smaller tree and it fits in that corner of
the family room and it looks looks. Good so that's
how we got two. TREES i don't know how many
trees you have at your, house but evidently more and
more of us are getting more than one. Tree seventy

(29:45):
one percent say they've put the tree up by. Now
twenty percent won't limit themselves to just. One when when
do you decorate your? Tree by the, WAY i know

Five fifty. Two now you're In houston's morning. News all.
Right the question, is with The december meeting coming, up
will THE fed cut interest rates? Again Richard rosso JOINS
us financial planner with what he thinks is likely to
happen to what it. Means good morning, Sir good Morning.

Speaker 41 (35:46):
Jimmy you know The fed's presence is an assault on
all of.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
US i don't disagree with you on.

Speaker 41 (35:53):
That, Unfortunately, well there's an eighty nine point six percent
chance that THE fed will cut, rate.

Speaker 12 (36:02):
So that looks pretty.

Speaker 41 (36:03):
Clear but realize THE fed is going into this situation
after an extended government, shutdown so we have The Labor
department will release some reports this, week it'll be after
the said, meeting so you, know they're sort of flying.
Blind and the dual mandate for the song is really

(36:24):
shuffling them back and forth in a state of.

Speaker 3 (36:28):
Confusion, okay for, sure would they be better off just
maybe leaving everything the way it is until they can
kind of see what's going on.

Speaker 41 (36:35):
Here that's been talked, about AND i think that is
part of the problem that The fed and The committee
is having right, now especially with the lack of. Data
the problem is the market wouldn't.

Speaker 12 (36:49):
Like it very.

Speaker 41 (36:49):
Much and we all know since financial, crisis THE fed
really spends a lot more attention looking at the market
than probably even The president. Does so the odds are
with the labor market weakening or job freeze going, on
and inflation is sort of. Stable when you look at
all the metrics from The Atlanta, fed you'll see that

(37:11):
for the most, part you, know they're two and a
half to three. Percent The Atlanta fed STICKY cpi WHICH i,
follow is down to three point three.

Speaker 42 (37:19):
Percent but again these.

Speaker 41 (37:21):
Are all you, know these are all not part of
The fed's, target the two percent, target which they're way,
above and that's what's really troubling. Them and they don't
really understand what's going on with unemployment and the job.
Market you, know is it just because immigration is where
it is today or are people losing jobs with? It

(37:41):
it's really a tough you, know the flying demand of
labor is really nebulous for them right?

Speaker 42 (37:45):
Now?

Speaker 3 (37:47):
Right does THE fed take a look at housing or?
Not does that matter to The fed what's going on
in real, estate whether holmes are selling or not, selling not.

Speaker 41 (37:55):
Really if they're looking at an equivalent to a price
that they. Use in other, words they don't even include
property taxes into their homeowner's insurance into their.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
Equation and we know where that.

Speaker 41 (38:08):
Inflation has, been, Right oh, yeah, okay so they're not
to be counting, that so you, know most likely you're
going to get.

Speaker 20 (38:15):
It here's the.

Speaker 41 (38:15):
Problem going Into. January we're going into this misty. Period
but you also have a time now when we Know
powell is gone next, year and we know Whoever President
trump puts in is going to be very accommodative on
every inch of that yield, curve lowering rates on the short,
end probably bringing back quantitative, evening lowering rates on the

(38:37):
intermedia and long term, end which would help mortgage. Rates
so we know there's going to be a point where
the market's not paying attention To powell. Anymore AND i
think it's already happening because Of may twenty six And
powell is out all.

Speaker 3 (38:49):
Right always good to get your. Insight thank, You, richard appreciate.

forty percent of six figure earners admitted to deliberately not
scanning an item at the. Store, well that's not, stealing
yes it. Is you have an, item you're not scanning,

(47:17):
It you're putting it in your, cart you're taking off
without paying for. It that's. Stealing forty percent of people
making six figures admit to not paying for everything at self. Checkout,
meanwhile only twenty seven percent of people in households earning
between fifty and ninety nine thousand reported that they had

(47:38):
purposely taken, something and the numbers even lower for people
making thirty thousand dollars a year or, less less likely to.
Steal so what is what is going? On obviously it's
not poor, income it's poor. Behavior so are these people
who are entitled who think, that, well the steak is awfully,
expensive BUT i deserve, steak so Therefore i'm going to

(48:02):
just take this without paying for. It the problem seems to,
be at least to a certain, extent that these people
believe that these stores are making a lot of. Money
they're they're they're overcharging, Me they're making a big. Profit
it doesn't matter IF i take. Something they don't seem
to understand that most, retailers especially in the grocery, industry

(48:24):
are making maybe two two and a half percent as
far as the profit. Goes, stealing you, know stealing from
them is cutting into that very slim profit, margin and
somehow people seem to think it's okay six' ten time,

Speaker 3 (53:05):
Time Here In, houston's warning news right Doctors. Cost money
in obamacare doctors cost a lot of money Because it
turns out obamacare Was Not Really. The affordable care act
It's The Now, the unaffordable care act which is why
there's talks of, getting rid of it which is. Not
going to happen how often do we get rid of
government programs. Once, they get. Started never Virtually never so

(53:28):
now republicans are. Talking About Reforming It Ed heislameyer Health
Policy research and, Heritage foundation joins us i'm sure you
can come up with a long list ed Of. What's
wrong with obamacare is there anything? That's, right about it.

Speaker 42 (53:42):
Well it has provided assistance in the form of some
subsidies to lower income people who previously. Had trouble buying
insurance the problem is it's done it in, a very
inefficient way and it doesn't and it's also made health
insurance more, expensive for middle income self employed people who

(54:06):
have to. Buy their own coverage.

Speaker 3 (54:09):
So do you think the intent was ever really to
make healthcare more affordable or was it just really about
covering people who didn't? Have health care before what do
you think that the beginning goal, Was, supposed to be.

Speaker 42 (54:23):
Yeah that's the point it was really more about trying
to find a way to provide insurance to people, who
didn't have insurance and those were. Particularly lower income people
but the thing that's important to remember about, this is
while people, particularly low income people, didn't have an insurance they. Did,

(54:44):
get medical care, now it, wasn't necessarily you Know what they,
should in other words it was often people would wait
until something happened and then they go to the emergency
room and, they wouldn't, pay somebody you know it would
be PICKED up or from i. Did free for them
now we'd be better off to go to a doctor

(55:06):
and get checked out first and avoid having to go.
To the emergency, room so in theory. Insurance would help
people it's just how you. GO about doing it i don't.

Speaker 3 (55:18):
Think it WAS ever there's certainly i would, think for
any conservatives it was ever any intention that we'd have
people making seventy thousand dollars, a year or more maybe,
even more than that who Were. Eligible to get obamacare
how did we get to the point of providing Middle. Income,
people with obamacare.

Speaker 42 (55:34):
Well the problem was and this is one OF the,
points that i made is they folded together. Really two
different markets one is trying to reach those people who
were low income, who didn't have insurance who were relying
on charity or free care. At hospitals and clinics the
other group were these people who were the old or.

(55:54):
The traditional individual market these are people, who were middle income,
usually self, employed people business, owners things like that people
who are freelancers who were just buying in the individual
market because they weren't working for an employer that offered
coverage in the, traditional employer group coverage which most other.

(56:16):
MIDDLE income, people have, i mean you know it's important
to remember this is a relatively small. Piece of the
market we're talking total maybe, about twenty million people of
whom seven million are the folks who are buying their
own coverage. And are self employed the market for traditional

(56:37):
employer group coverage is one hundred. And sixty million people
that's the. Workers and their dependents so this is not
and this is. The other problem here people. Talk about the,
affordability the affordability, issue it hits everybody and that's something
That we really think congress needs to work on some

(57:00):
good bipartisan legislation to, make prices more transparent to require
disclosure so that people know who's getting paid, what in
the system because if you, actually dig into this what
people get charged for healthcare is, all over the map
even within the same, health system or organization. Say. A,

(57:21):
hospital system.

Speaker 3 (57:22):
Yeah well we've been complaining about this for the. Last
thirty forty years why have we been unsuccessful so far being?
Able to reform healthcare is? It, really that HARD.

Speaker 42 (57:32):
Well because, as i just said a lot of people
in the, SYSTEM are making money. I mean, somebody else
you know your high expenses are somebody else's income, right to,
the hospital the insurers. The third party, administrators you know
again if you know something is basic, as GETTING a

(57:54):
scan an mri or backspray. Or something like that and,
with these hospital systems they have multiple sites where you,
can get it right each one of them is called.
Charging a different amount.

Speaker 3 (58:06):
Well in the case and all of them. Are charging,
too much quite frankly well.

Speaker 48 (58:11):
That's that's, that's right that's right because because, they're, looking
at it say they're not looking, at, it to say
well how as you would in the, normal, market to
SAY well how can i provide the customer with better
for less and. Therefore get more, business they're JUST saying how?

Speaker 3 (58:26):
Can, i charge MORE exactly how can i make? That much?
More money all right easier easier said than done when it.

Well A few more of those blue Nashville cats showed.
Up for that tennessee special election republicans. Won by a
relatively narrow margin actually didn't tro out to be quite
as narrow as, the fundits we're saying it was but
They got everybody's attention, because the democrat running. She's Boy
she's pretty far left chris bagala joins us political analyst

(01:31:26):
to talk about This Before we. GET to the. JASMINE
crockett story i hate putting i hate how we put
so much stock, in, things like, this to say well
this boat this does. Not bode well for the midterms.
The midterms are long ways away when. You get right
down to it what's going on with the economy is
going to count for a whole lot. More what happens
TO the? Midterms DON'T you.

Speaker 51 (01:31:45):
Think i do and i think you Know, we're in,
this non Stomp jimmy you know election. Campaign watch or
what Have you but The facts are trump won that,
tennessee district By, twenty two points and the republican running
against what most people Thought was a darn farr left

(01:32:07):
democrat who had a, lot Of negativity on her. Resume
that Republican won by nine so the republican Wins by
nine in a district. Trump by one by twenty two
that does not portend what's going. To Happen across the
entire nation but, i'm here to say the midterms it's

(01:32:27):
almost a guarantee that every sitting.

Speaker 2 (01:32:30):
President loses seats in.

Speaker 51 (01:32:32):
The midterm out of the last nineteen we can, go
back to nineteen forty six out, of the last nineteen
midterm elections presidents have lost, seats every single time except
once and that was Back IN. Two thousand and two
george w bush was strong and had a lot of
support because that. Was right after nine. To, eleven that's,

(01:32:55):
THE only time so you, know i hate to say this.
But it's just going, To happen trump will Lose.

Speaker 2 (01:33:00):
Seats he will, lose the, house that's my.

Speaker 51 (01:33:03):
Estimation you know given unforeseen circumstances, If everything somewhat stays
the same trump's, gonna lose some seats next year Even
With the redistrict because the supreme court is Upheld.

Speaker 3 (01:33:14):
What we did here in texas so there's the possibility.
We pick. Up, FIVE seats here.

Speaker 51 (01:33:19):
It's possible yes i think That. Is going to happen in,
texas but across. The country again we shall see the,
economy will make a big statement and let's see where,
things are, in another. You KNOW eight nine ten months but,
i think, Even with those seats you know California, added

(01:33:42):
a few for the d's it's kind. OF kind Of mesh,
out THERE i Hope i'm wrong but i Think trump's going.

Speaker 3 (01:33:48):
To lose, The House, next year all right chris bagalif
what do You Make of the candidacy OF Jasmine crockett
running For the. Us senate for the democrat nomination. She's
leading in ALL the polls the only thing i can
figure out she's, done is, gone crazy and run you
know And Gotten a big reaction from donald trump and
maybe for her supporters that's the. Only thing she needs
to do, She, hasn't actually proposed. Any programs.

Speaker 51 (01:34:12):
No She never has i'd like jasmine crockett.

Speaker 2 (01:34:14):
To meet A gentleman.

Speaker 51 (01:34:15):
By the name of betto O'Rourke that's who she might
want to talk with about how it's like To run
as a Far. Left, democrat and lose in texas look.

Speaker 2 (01:34:25):
She's doing this because she's going.

Speaker 51 (01:34:27):
To even get more name id she Is another example
of how this democratic party has lost its center base and.
The far left have taken, Over no matter what. You
Think i'm not being disrespectful jasmine. CROCKETT is out of
her mind i Mean, she ACCUSED all Kinds Of, republicans

(01:34:49):
including epa director Lee Zelden. Of taking money, From jeffrey,
epstein Not, the pedophile I'm. Sorry missus crockett it's doctor,
jeffrey it was a different person and.

Speaker 46 (01:35:02):
She muddled her.

Speaker 51 (01:35:03):
Way around That that was embarrassing. She called ice, agents
slave patriots every other minute, every time Her mouth.

Speaker 2 (01:35:12):
IS moving, she's calling trump.

Speaker 19 (01:35:14):
Hitler i mean.

Speaker 48 (01:35:15):

Speaker 51 (01:35:16):
Far left she's gonna raise money i'd like to see
on election day how much money that.

Speaker 2 (01:35:23):
She's raised that she has spent she's going, to.

Speaker 51 (01:35:25):
Keep a few million bucks and therefore her war chests
will be a. Little bigger than it is now. Her
name ideal will be bigger, it's Another Example, of this party,
the democratic party being taken over. Hijacked by the far far,
left she's looney to it.

Speaker 3 (01:35:41):
Well and The template is very. Clear for democrats at
this point be, as outrageous as you can get, as
much attention as you can make, as much money as
you can, and who. Cares about anything else no doubt
her GOAL. Is to raise her. Name id she will
do that she's going to open Doors and talk To
very rich democratic donors. Around texas and around the country.

(01:36:02):
She's going to benefit from. That she's going to raise
money she's not going to, spend all the. Money she
raises mark my words. That is a victory.

Speaker 17 (01:36:10):
For.

Speaker 51 (01:36:10):
Her She's going to lose now the republican who's Going,
to be, there could be cornying You Know.

Contentious race on the r, side that's. A long ways
off let's see. But this is not about.
