Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it we'll have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Donald Trump hitting the ground running. Yeah, we're talking about
destroying the deep state. This is the details that we've
got going here. First and foremost, it tends to reissue
an executive order from twenty twenty which would restore the
president's authority to remove federal employees, allowing for the aggressive

(00:38):
management or dismissal of federal workers. Yeah, and I sa'd
be great. Like I said, I keep getting that Entourage
scene there with Ari Emanuel going around with a paintball gun.
You're fired, you fired, you fire. Just just get rid
of them all. Overhauling national security and intelligence. Trump's plan

(00:59):
includes moving individuals from national security and intelligence agencies who
have engaged in corrupt practices or have used these agencies
against political adversaries. I hope again, I hope he's able
to do this. God bless him. I hope he has

(01:19):
great security. I'm going to take everybody back in time
to when Donald Trump first took office and Chuck Schumer,
Chuck Schumer with his Freudian slip on Rachel Maddow's program,
and he wasn't wrong when Trump was saying the same
thing and going after the intelligence agencies, Chuck Schumer and

(01:40):
I quote, the intelligence agencies have six ways past Sunday
at getting back at you. He's going after the FISA
courts to address where judges have ignored misleading information in
warrant applications. A Truth Reconciliation Commission plans to establish commission

(02:03):
to declassify and make public all documents related to alleged
deep state activities like spying, censorship, and corruption. Here's another one.
Here's another one that again, I'm gonna start opening up
some files there in DC. It's going to look like
that graveyard in Queens. There's so many skeletons that are

(02:27):
in there. I was actually thinking about this, and again
I was thinking about, you know, different major events that
I experienced throughout my life and my history, and for
whatever reason, it took me back to September eleventh. September eleventh,
two thousand and one. On that day, on that day,

(02:49):
my wife was in the city. I was supposed to
go into the city. We were living in Queens at
the time. I ended up having to do an interview
that morning and we went in later, so I didn't
end up going in. My sister in law was in
the city after what happened. I think it was late morning.
Late morning, I got a call from Alex Jones. Alex Jones, Yeah,

(03:12):
the Alex Jones Show. He was also one of the
networks I was on again. This is my infancy my
second year. My radio show was this small radio network
called Genesis, and he was on it as well, and
he called me. Well, his people called me wanted me
to come on the show because they knew I was
in New York about information. This was on September eleventh,

(03:34):
that there was inceniary devices that were in the Twin Towers.
I almost in my mind, I moved Gaskett. I was angry,
and I was like, I don't know what you're talking about.
That can't be. I'm not being a conspiracy theor so.
I don't know. But let me ask you a question,
be honest, things that you would never actually think could

(04:00):
possibly occur, maybe ten, fifteen, twenty years ago, would it
surprise you? Yeah, Like if there was a new game
show called would you be surprised if someone came out
today and they said, yes, the intelligence agencies had something
to do with September eleventh, Would you be surprised? I wouldn't.

(04:25):
I wouldn't. Again, maybe I'm just getting old and jaded.
So's let's open up all those files. This country really
needs some troops and we need I mean, we got
we gotta let it go. Man, it would be a
cathartic for this country. Crackdown on leaks. Plans to pursue
legal actions against individuals involved in unauthorized leaks that contribute

(04:47):
to misleading media narratives. No problem with that at all.
And again I've cautioned people here on the program, do
not when you see a story sources tell us where
is these sources? Who? What sources? As soon as I
start saying, wow, sources inside the way, No, no, no,

(05:08):
I don't paying attentions. I don't trust it. Sources have agendas,
and you know, quite frankly, you don't want to put
your your name to what you're you know, giving up,
then don't say anything, quite frankly. Independence of Inspectors General,
this is great, and sure that Inspector General offices are
physically separate from the departments they oversee to maintain objectivity

(05:33):
and prevent them from becoming part of the entrenched bureaucracy.
And fantastic independent auditing system. Establishment of a system to
continually monitor intelligence agencies to prevent unauthorized surveillance of citizens
or disinformation campaigns. Great, yes, fantastic. You know, you think

(05:56):
about some of the things I was just again, I'm
just going back to September Patriot Act and Julian Assange,
and you know when we learned in twenty ten that
the government's looking at our emails and our search history
and all of these things that they're doing again, this
is fantastic. Geographic redistribution of bureaucracy. Continue the initiative of

(06:18):
relocating federal offices outside of Washington, d C. To other
parts of the country, reducing the concentration of bureaucracy in
the capital. Super I don't know if he saw, I
don't know. I don't even know if he saw. What
was it? Washington, d C? Was ninety six percent for Harris.
I think about that he were running the country. That bureaucracy. Yes,

(06:41):
spread it around the country. Ban on post government employment,
these are things that we've talked about. We pushed for
here on the program. Prohibit federal bureaucrats from taking positions
at companies they previously regulated or dealt with to prevent
conflicts of interest. That was like a joke, but it

(07:04):
was true. They put in Michael Lewis's book, The The
The Big Short, and it was also in the movie
as well, where they you know, they're finding out that
you know, all these people working for the SEC, all
they were trying to do is get jobs working for
the other side. I couldn't agree more. And you know what,
I'd also add to that, and I put a ban

(07:25):
on any sort of lobbying for anybody who has worked
as a bureaucrat or has been a politician, can't do it.
And a last, but certainly not least, term limits for Congress.
I'm going to push for a constitutional amendment to impose
term limits on members of Congress, aiming to reduce the

(07:47):
influence of long term incumbents and refresh the political landscape.
Tell me what is not to like here? This is
you know, Donald Trump is talking about this, but these
are things that we have been calling on here for
a long time. My concern I'm gonna be honest with you.

(08:09):
It's for his wellbeing at this point in time, it's
for his wellbeing. This is a massive, massive threat to
the people that are running the show. This is a
huge threat to members of the Watchdog on Wall Street
