We've got ties between Joe Biden and his Attorney general
are allegedly very fraid. We'll discuss whether I buy into

(00:32):
that or not. Bluss the negotiation to avoid a government shutdown.
Spoiler alert, Well, I guess I shouldn't give the spoiler
alert before I tell you what's going to happen, but
I'm doing it anyway. The Government's not going to shut down.
And then a bit of advice to the Wall Street Journal
on obsessing but having the perfect career plan. Those are

(00:53):
three things I want to dive into you today. Let's
start with this story. We talked about this on the
radio show today, but I want to follow up a
little more the attorney This is the story Wall Street
Journal ties between Joe Biden and Merrick Garland deteriorate from
distant to frigid. Attorney General's vaunted independence has put all
on relations between the White House and the Justice Department,

(01:13):
and it says the already frosty relationship between President Biden
and his Attorney General, Merrick Garland is now in a
deep freeze. So respect and admiration among White House aids
for Garland, a longtime federal court judge, chose to underscore
the independence of the Justice Department and has shifted for
some into resignation and distrust. They point to Garland having

(01:34):
appointed not just a special counsel to investigate former President
Donald Trump, but two others as well, one looking into
his son, Hunter Biden. So here's the situation, folks. You
could believe that these White House aides who are speaking
to the Wall Street Journal are just deciding to give
the Wall Street Journal information that could be useful politically

(01:58):
against the Biden White House. Why would they do that?
Or you could see this as I do, as a
disinformation operation, this information operation. How would that work? Well,
I think you see it right now. They tell everyone
via the Wall Street Journalist, the mouthpiece, remember a conservative paper.

(02:19):
They tell them, Oh, Biden is so angry, he's just
so upset at Merrick Garland, so that then there can
be talking points. Then people can go out there and say, see,
Merrick Garland is doing real justice. Biden so mad at
him for what's going on. Here, and it makes it
seem like to people who haven't really spent a lot
of time thinking about this, the fix isn't in the

(02:42):
justice system is serious, and this is something that everybody
should believe, Right, that's the idea. Oh yeah, no, it's fine.
It's they're being so rough on Hunter Biden. No one
can really believe this. No one can really believe us.
Think about it for a moment. They're being rough on
Hunter Biden. They assigned as the special counsel to look

(03:03):
into Hunter Biden stuff. They assigned a Weiss, a confidant
of the Biden family. Effectively, he's been in Delaware forever.
Who under doj regulations shouldn't even be a special counsel.
He's already within the department pervie. You're supposed to bring
somebody from outside the Department of Justice. So Merrick Garland
is putting someone in charge who will use every trick

(03:25):
and has used every trick so far as we know,
from the plea deal that fell apart in the summer,
to make sure that Joe Biden doesn't have to worry
about Hunter getting in real trouble. Right, charges are one thing,
it's convictions and prison sentences that are the real punishment,
that's the real problem for someone like Hunter Biden at least.

(03:47):
So I don't buy that this is a real sentiment
that the White House has, that their White House, that
the White House is upset at the Attorney General because
he's just being so strict, because he's such an honest man,
and Joe is upset with him for being so honest.
I don't think that that's a reflection of reality here.

(04:10):
Tre ask me what I think is going on, And
if you're listening to this, I suppose you are asking
in some way. I think that they're trying to convince
people that the system is not utterly corrupted in favor
of Democrats, especially going into a year where we'll see
multiple efforts to try Donald Trump in criminal courts. So
it doesn't that add up? Does that make a lot

(04:30):
more sense when you think about it. Oh, look at this,
this Merrick Garland Department of Justice is so strict and serious.
I guess that the Democrats are even upset at them
because of it. It reminds me a little bit of
what the Obama administration did. For those who remember this,
very few people do remember, but I do remember it.
There were these new stories about Obama as the deporter

(04:52):
in chief right going into the twenty twelve election. Obama
has deported so many people. Gosh, he's so strict on
the border, he's so strong on border security. He's the
deporter in chief, and there are these stories popping up.
You're saying, hold on a second, why would that be
something the Democrats are doing. Democrats want amnesty, they want

(05:14):
as many illegals coming into the country as possible. They
think their future Democrat votes. And so you look at
a little more. You said, oh, they change the definition
of what counts as a deportation to make the numbers
look bigger. That was one thing they did. So if
you were turned around immediately, that was counted as a deportation,
even though that's not really a deportation. And then beyond that,

(05:36):
this is where I think it gets even more interesting.
The point that they were trying to make was Obama
is so strong on the border, so you know you
can trust him in these negotiations with the Gang of
Eight in the Senate for an amnesty bill. Right. I mean,
he's so strong on the borders. So when he says
border security as part of comprehensive immigration reform is guaranteed.

(05:57):
You can trust him, right. You see how the propaganda works.
They create a false belief in somebody on an issue
so that they can leverage that to get something they
want on another issue. Oh, we can trust Obama on
the border because he's so strict with deportations, so you
know that he will do what he says when it

(06:20):
comes to enforcement. It's all a scam, folks, It's all
this honest. I think that's what they're doing with Merrick Garland.
I don't believe that Biden thinks that Merrick Garland has
done anything other than his level best to protect the
Biden regime and to go after enemies. Remember it's the
Merrick Garland is the one who's appointed the special counsels

(06:40):
looking too Trump, who's doj has brought two felony criminal
in diatments against Donald Trump. How much better does Joe
Biden think he's gonna get as an attorney general who
is a weapon of his regime than when he has
the Merrick Ireland. I think Merrick Garland is even more
of a partisan than Eric Holder was before him, or

(07:02):
Loretta Lynch. I think Merrick Garland has been willing to
absolutely go after Biden enemies and doesn't care what it
has done to the law in the process. You know,
being healthy and feeling strong. Who doesn't want that. Our
friends at Chalk Sulfoman company based in Texas want to

(08:11):
gonna be a lot of reporting on oh gosh, the
debt ceiling and a government shutdown and all this stuff.
Here's where the Fox News story Rebel uprising threatens to
derail House GOP deal to avoid shutdown. See, our deal
would last for thirty one days and effectively cut spending
by one percent from current levels. So continuing resolution, friends,

(08:34):
Both parties spend too much, and it's not going to stop.
We say we wanted to stop, but we don't actually
want it to stop it because we elect people that will
continue to do it. And then when we think we're
doing something about it, we think when people are standing
up and saying enough, they're doing so little that it
won't make a difference in terms of the overall numbers
in the debt. So it doesn't make a difference. And

(08:57):
so how does anyone believe that this would stop? How
does anyone believe that this would go in a direction
other than what we've seen? Right, That's the part of
this that I think everybody has to understand. This is
just on autopilot. Now. Some people are trying to do
something about it, but they can't do enough to really
stop it, at least not realistically politically anytime soon. So

(09:18):
you're going to see all this reporting about the dead
ceiling and we spend too much money, We're going to
get a continuing resolution. We're going to spend way too
much money, and if anything, we'll get some insignificant reduction
in the increase in the amount of spending, and we'll
be told that that's something we should all be excited about. Now.
Thing's going to change until things change, meaning the spending

(09:40):
will continue until we have real economic pain that people
feel and take seriously. And at that point it could
be too late. I don't want to be dooming gloom
on this, but I'm being doom and gloom because that's
what's going to happen. If you look at the history
of Fiat currencies, the history of Fiat currencies will show
very clearly, or shows very clearly that over time they

(10:02):
all eventually get debased into nothingness. It's just a question
of when how long it takes. So yeah, that's that's
the challenge, folks. Until people feel the pain, the Santa
Claus situation continues. Free stuff for everybody, nobody's got, nobody
has to pay for it, right right, it's not how

(10:22):
it happens. But we talked about it all day long.
The majority of the American people do not want this
situation to change. They want the printing presses to keep
just worrying, you know, going on as fast as they can.
That's that's what's going to continue to happen. I don't
see any change here. My pillows team has a great

just kind of some thoughts I have on this. It's

(11:29):
a piece in the Wall Street Journal. Stop obsessing about
having the perfect career plan. The paths we thought we
knew were crumbling fast. Maybe it's time to think differently
about getting aheads by Rachel find SiGe And I would
just say, in the basics of this, she's right, showing
up at a company and working there for thirty years
and just getting better all the time, making more money,
advancing if you do the you know, you have a

(11:51):
great work ethic and all that. That's just not going
to be the reality for a lot of people. Hasn't
been the reality for me. I've I'll be moving again
in a week, and I have to say I have
lived in as an adult, I think twelve different places, homes,
twelve different homes at this point, moving mostly for job

(12:13):
in financial reasons, you know, move here, move there, get
closer to work, less expensive apartment, whatever it may be.
And that's been the reality for a lot of people
I think who like me grew up in large cities
in this country and found work opportunities in those cities.
Now that's changing, obviously. I live in Florida now, and
people that can work remotely are working remotely, and so

(12:34):
there's some flexibility with regard to that. But the career
path a crew that's day to day life stuff, that's
work life balance, whatever you want to call it, a
career trajectory is going to be very different for people.
Companies are much more volatile than they previously were. You know,
there's not the equivalent really. I think of an IBM

(12:55):
where you go there, you work there, you know, for
thirty years, and it's a great, steady company that makes
great products, and you know, maybe that's a simplification. Maybe
that never you know, Ford Motor Company, right, Obviously that
ran into problems eventually too. Nothing lasts forever. But a
career path that's going to be study for twenty or
thirty years, unless you work in government, which I looked

(13:16):
at as a possibility at one point. I mean, I
was working government. I left, and I left in large
part because I wanted more I wanted more option options
in my life day to day. I wanted more freedom
and I didn't want to just be at the whim
of a massive bureaucracy that really just doesn't care about
anything day to day. Right, the bureaucracy exists there, So

(13:40):
I do think people should think more about that going
forward and think about how their careers will be require
a lot more flexibility, a little more creativity, and also durability,
meaning you're going to go in and out of career fields,
you're going to go in and out of different companies,
and accepting those changes and embracing that reality is going

(14:01):
to be to the benefit of those who are still
building and making careers. I think that's very valid, think
that's very real. All right, that's the Bucks X and
show for today. Tukian more tomorrow, She'll tigh
