The liberal media is railing on President Trump but there is some good news on the economy front and the Administration has not been hiding the fact that the economy needed "a little medicine."  The economy will grow!

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Thanks to all of you for me.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Whether those write down are toll free telephone number if
you want to be a part of the program, it's
eight hundred and ninety four one Sean if you'd like
to join US.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
America has two choices.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
And for years I have said on this program that
Wall Street is not my barometer for whether or not
the economy is healthy. Explain a great detail the comments
about the economy. Austin Goolsby not somebody I've always agreed
with economically about the fundamentals of the economy being very,

(00:32):
very strong. And I know, oh my stock market, just watch,
wait and see. I guarantee you there will be a turnaround.
What the problem you have? Whenever whenever you do something
out of the box, something that is new, and whenever

(00:57):
you break with the old order of doing things things
and you are an iconoclast and you shake things up,
there is generally speaking among institutionalists or establishment types, a
freak out period. And that's what we're living through. And
Donald Trump warned, this is what happened on Wednesday, and

(01:19):
I could have predicted it myself. As a matter of fact,
I did predict it, and I told a number of
people I think I said it on the show, don't remember.
We could always go back and find the tape that
this is the predictable response. Now we have two choices
as Americans. We can stick with the last fifty years
of doing things, and that is America being taken advantage

(01:43):
of America being ripped off by friend and foe alike,
America being a sucker nation, allowing a people to abuse
us and basically tax us. And these are in many
cases of our allies. These are the very countries that
we're paying the bulk of money to the tune of

(02:04):
almost a trillion dollars a year in building the weaponry
and the defense systems that they need for their survival
and security, and then the fact that they turn around
and treat us like this. I don't care if it's
the European Union, I don't care if it's Canada. I
don't care if it's Japan, I don't care if it's
South Korea or Taiwan or any of these countries that

(02:26):
have been unfairly putting tariffs on American products. Or we
can think out of the box. We can break things
temporarily and then we can re establish a new order,
a new way of doing things that will be beneficial
for the American people. You know what the media is
not focusing in on is that even the threat of

(02:50):
tariffs resulted had very very positive results. When you get
nearly five trillion dollars in moneies committed, but manufacturing and
building and products uh.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
And and and.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Manufacturing centers and auto plans being built in the US. UH.
Guess what that's called winning. The fact that Wall Street
can't can't break through the prism of their old guard thinking,
their institutionalist type of thinking. You know, those that are
are are it's just impossible. They can't accept, you know,

(03:30):
they they would rather surrender unilaterally. They want America to surrender.
And Democrats that are all on record, and we've been
playing them all week, from Nancy Pelosi to Janet Yellen,
to Chuck Schumer to Barack Obama, you know, all on
record repeatedly talking about the need to put tariffs on
on these countries to take advantage of US. China in particular,

(03:54):
I'm glad China came out with a terriff war against
the US raising prices because let me tell you about
the communist Chinese. They need access to your money. They
need access to our markets. They need it, they need
it desperately. And in the end, do I think there's
going to be a negotiated settlement. It's already happening in

(04:15):
ways that I'll tell you about throughout the show today.
I don't want to spend all day on this because
I'm not I'm not really I'm sort of nonplussed about it.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
This is very predictable.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
If you're an institutionalist, if you believe in the old order,
if you are incapable of thinking outside of the box,
if you're a Rhino Republican and you want America to
just maintain the old way of doing things, then this
is the result you're gonna get. You're gonna you're gonna
be taking advantage of. I personally don't want the United

(04:49):
States of America, the Land of the Free and the
Home of the brave, taken advantage of anymore. And for
whatever short term minor pain that may be inflicted on us,
it is, the long term benefits are going to be massive.
All of these critics, I promise you, will have egg
on their face.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
And it's only a matter of time. Now.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
There's a lot of good news economically out there, not
that Wall Street would pay attention to it. You know,
oil prices have now dropped to their lowest level since
twenty twenty one. That's pretty good news because it's the
lifeblood of every economy. Couldn't come at a better time
for this country anyway. Oil prices today lowest level of
nearly four years. A plan to increase supply by OPEC

(05:36):
and allied countries, recent crude global benchmarks slid nearly eight
percent to under sixty five bucks a barrel, which, if
it holds, would be the lowest end of day settlement
price since August of twenty twe twenty twenty one, West
Texas Intermediate the US equivalent drop more than eight percent
to around sixty one bucks. If that holds true, that'll

(05:57):
be the lowest since April of twenty twenty one. You know,
eight OPEC countries said that they will increase their output
by four hundred and eleven thousand barrels a day by
next month. These two factors the previously limited downside risk
to prices, that is, low recession risk OPEC's preference for

(06:18):
low production no longer in place. According to Goldman Sachs,
one of their now analysts, you're not hearing today the
news that retail sales, you know, expected to grow despite
the media fear mongering over tariffs and then NonStop hysteria
and melt down. It's like Alco salts are in water.
It's like if Donald Trump announces we found a cure

(06:39):
because of my investment and my plan to cure cancer,
and we now have the cure. I could hear the
liberal media, you know, they find a way to hate
him for that. They can't give him credit for anything. Now,
if you look at the National Retail Federation, they reported

(07:00):
two days ago that they expect this year twenty twenty five,
retail sales will grow between two point seven and three
point seven percent. That's a significant increase. Online sales they
believe can rise as much as nine percent. E commerce
sales or forecasts to grow between seven and nine percent,
and the CEO, Matthew Shea, said that the twenty twenty

(07:23):
five annual forecast aligns with the ten year average annual
sales growth the three point six percent before the pandemic.
That would be called good economic news. We I'm gonna
keep going because I've got more US economy added jobs
at a faster pace in March Labor Department releasing their
closely watched March report. Anyway, the four point two percent,

(07:47):
they anticipated only one hundred and thirty five thousand jobs.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Sorry, I went up way higher.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
Private sector payrolls added two hundred and nine thousand jobs
in March, well above the one hundred and twenty seven
thousand that OR projected. Oh sorry, sorry to give you
bad news on the economy. You know, what you're witnessing
is establishment, an establishment temper tantre.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
That's what it is.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
And it includes some Republicans too, So they're in the
camp that they want America to be weak. They want
America to be suckers, they want America to be taken
advantage of.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
And they don't care that you pay the price for
all of this. You know.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
By the way, Bill Ackman, I like to read what
this guy writes. I find him to be really, really bright.
He's a billionaire. I'd like to get him on the
show one day. And he pointed out that the announcement
of reciprocal tariffs may have put the world on edge,
with foreign leaders now forming their responses, some threatening retaliation
like China, others looking to negotiate. My advice to foreign leaders.

(08:50):
Is that you, if you have not already reached out
to President Trump, to do so immediately. Trump is, at
his core a deal maker, sound familiar, who tells you
this all the time, who sees the world as a
series of transactions. He wrote on x and he characterized
the President as a tough but fair negotiator. How do
you get any tougher? How do you get any more

(09:13):
fair than the president offering every country in the world
to have free and fair trade, no tariffs either way.
That's fair. If they want tariffs, they're going to get
tariffs back. You can't be any more fair than that.
And we see other stories about the economy that you know,

(09:33):
in spite of the hysteria, General Motors Nissan are going
to boost production at US plants. You know, I keep
hearing reports for Americans are going to pay more for cars,
not for American cars. Ford is offering employee prices the
consumers now and looking at this is the biggest opportunity
they ever had.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
And guess who that helps. That helps the.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Auto workers unions, That helps our fellow Americans that work
in the auto industry, and a lot of other the
industries are going to be impacted in positive ways as well.
At the end of the day, you know, Camera Motors
is expanding production into Indiana. Plant remember Nissan and Hondo,
We're going to build plants in Mexico until the threat

(10:14):
of tariffs came up and they said no, never mind.
You think it's an accident that five hundred billion dollars
was committed to the US by Apple to expand their
facilities and build a new facility in Texas, other facilities
around the country.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
That wasn't.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
That wasn't either Jeep's parent a company to offer more
buyers the same discount as their employees. You know, I
can go back and play Nancy Pelosi, Bernie Sanders and
O wait, he wanted tariffs twenty eighteen, Obama call for
reciprocal tariffs. We even have Donald Trump in nineteen nine
eighty eight saying it. But anyway, so to get the howls,

(10:53):
the outrage, the feigned outrage, the stock market, that's all
going to settle down. This is this is the establishment
temper tantrum reaction to something new out of the box
that in the end is gonna pay massive dividends for
the country. Or we could just stay with the old
established way of doing things, and that means America remains

(11:14):
a sucker nation. That's your choice here and there really isn't.
There is no other alternative. Either we stay strong, united
together and understand that we're being taken advantage of and
say we're not gonna take it anymore, or you just
get the crap kicked out of you every day and
get taken advantage of by people every day. Now, I
don't live my life that way. If somebody wants to

(11:35):
punch me in the face, I'm gonna punch them back.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
That's just the way I'm wired. I don't want to
punch anybody. I don't have to punch really hard.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
I can take a punch, and if you can't take
a punch, you better not get in a fight. But
I don't want to punch anybody. I'm actually a very
peaceful person. I will do everything humanly possible to avoid
any confrontation with anybody. Even if I knew I was
on camera and would look cowardly, I would still I'd
rather have that outcome than having to hurt somebody.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
I don't want to hurt anybody.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
And speaking of hurting people, looks like John Fetterman because
he's been very pro Israel and anti Hamas, the terrorist
group that wants to wipe Israel off the map. Anyway,
he's been condemning vandalism that took place at his wife's
story yesterday. Do you hear about this, Linda, this is
in your state. Vandalism was a sign that referred to

(12:29):
him and his wife as genocide John and genocide Giselle.
Blood on your hands. It red Since ten seven, twenty three,
I'm used to the vandalism at my home, my office,
Fetterman wrote in an online social media post, referring to
the date that Hamas militants attacked. And again, what part
of murder, rape, torture, kidnapping beheading to these people on

(12:51):
the left not understand? I don't know, but he said
he's this has been happening ever since October seventh, when
Hamas Milton's militant attacked and kidnapped and murdered festival goers
in Israel. Giselle volunteers to distribute food, clothing, formula at

(13:12):
no cost to our community, then they shouldn't have to
put up with this. I mean, his wife opened the
free store in Braddock, Pennsylvania in twenty twelve, along with
nonprofits and volunteers, according to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette, and
the stores to eradicate food and clothing and security by
accepting donations and redistributing the items to those in need.

(13:35):
By the way, I think I should donate London. Don't
you think, what are you gonna do money? If everyone
needs money? You want me to go send can goods? No?

Speaker 1 (13:47):
I mean I don't know if you should donate your
time via video lessons and conservatism and maybe they'll snap
out of it.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
I think if anybody's on the verge of snapping out
of it, the only one that speaks any common sense
in that party now.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
An equal opportunity hater, which is what we love about him.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
He doesn't care about you. You love. You love anybody
that has a hateless like you. So let's be anybody
that is issue based, anybody that does everything that you want. No,
we have plenty of idiots on the right, just like
we knew on the left.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
I love when the left is fighting each other. Did
you see and by the way, this is so revealing.
Did you see the story about little Georgie Clooney. I'm
not a fan of George clue you a fan. We
don't like George.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
I am not a fan.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
No, no, not a fan. Well, apparently there was a
dramatic confrontation after a liberal Joe producer apparently linked former
President Obama to the now infamous New York Times editorial
that called on former President Joe Biden.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Step aside.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Now all these stories, ron Klaan, this new book comes out,
all these stories. They had plans for Joe to die
in office and Commala to replace them. They had a
list of judges on speed dial to swear her in
at a moment's notice. So everybody knew this guy was
a cognitive mess. And then Ron Klaine explains, Yeah, when

(15:19):
we were prepping him for that debate with Trump, it
was awful, and he gets tired and he wanted to
go take a little nappy. And the people were making
fun of me, remember when I used to say, oh,
little sippy cup wore milky night night time bedtime stories
and people got all worked up linto I got the
crap beat out of me, as usual, And it turns
out I was right, and just like we'll be proven

(15:41):
right on this Twerff deal too. Anyway, So Clooney, I
would bet pretty much up to my last dollar, just
my guess. I can't say for sure. One thing I
do know is Obama and Clooney are close friends. It
seems like it a coordinated effort to me, in my opinion.

(16:03):
Can I prove it?

Speaker 1 (16:04):
No? Do I have any evidence to prove it? No?
I do not.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Does my gut tell me this is true, Yes it does.
I don't think he wrote that by accident. Now, remember
he had only seen Biden, you know, not that long
before he wrote this editorial. He's very different than the
person that I saw recently. Blah blah blah. He was
not any different. His cognitive decline was evident before the
twenty twenty election. They're all full of crap. And then

(16:30):
it turns out that Obama didn't want Kamala Harris to
get the anointment, shows how much influence he has, which
is pretty interesting. He wanted to have a mini open
primary because he didn't have faith in Kamala. So all
this dirty laundry is now coming out here. Anyway, there
was a feature I guess on Liberal Joe Show with

(16:51):
Joe and Mika suggesting, oh, by the way, there's some.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Media eyed headline. There's no way you can run. You
could be a congressman from the most conservative district Pensacola,
the Panhandle in Florida and then become a raging left
wing radical lunatic like Liberal Joe and not make me
think that you just wanted a job and to be
on TV and a paycheck. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
I can somebody have a transformation that dramatic. I guess
how does Nicole Wallace go from you know, working for
George W. Bush running the McCain and Sarah Palin campaign
to you know, now being you know, Rachel Maddow, you know,
on HGH and and testosterone.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
It's unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
It's this crazy left wing lunacy that they pedal on
the Conspiracy Theory channel. Anyway, so there's this new book
out and it talks about this feature with Liberal Joe
and Mika suggesting that Obama probably or may have authorized
Colony to publish the op ed about Biden stepping down.

(17:58):
I told you this was a coordinator effort. You know,
this wasn't George Clooney, Mika Brazinski said during the debate,
before adding, I think that Barack Obama has a lot
of influence now we do know for a fact. I
know for a fact that they're friends, So I kind
of agree with Mika. Here, write that down. This is

(18:19):
a historic day on the show. According to this guy
Whipple's account, and apparently he's got pretty good sources. He's
the one that quotes ron Klain and how bad debate
prep went. Why if somebody's doing that poorly in a
debate prep and the stakes of that high, you don't

(18:39):
let that person debate if you want them to win.
And then the act all shocked that the guy gets
his ass kicked. Anyway, According to whipples account, Clooney went ballistic,
how the f could you let her link me with
Barack Obama, saying he made me write the op ed.
Cloney reportedly shouted during a phone call with The Morning
Liberal Joe Purdue, Sir. When the producer denied involvement in

(19:02):
cloney screen, you f me. You're my friend, you should
have stood up for me. According to Whipple, the producer replied, George,
this is not an f big movie. There's no script.
It's just not a movie where you go script page
the script page. Colony returns fire F you, and the
producer fires back F yourself.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Believe this.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
The exchange apparently devolved in a profanity lace back and forth.
I'm telling you, it's the only thing that makes sense
to me.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Now.

Speaker 2 (19:37):
I did see for the next starting last weekend, and
this weekend the chosen the new episode season five. I
went to see the first. This is one of the
greatest series of all time. If you haven't watched it,
you said to me, it's on Prime, not on Apple.
I don't know why I get mine on Apple, but
I think Apple is kind of intertwined with Prime the
way my TV's configured. So what do I know. I

(19:58):
don't know anything. But apparently he became their largest grossing
theatrical event in the history of the series. That chosen
which is pretty cool and snow white from Disney, DEI
woke Disney, Jimmy Kimmel, Bob Eiger, DEI woke Disney apparently bombed.

(20:20):
They're gonna lose you know, a fortune, an absolute fortune.
Whoopy Goldberg signing off the View with an anti Trump resistance.
Remember the resistance is real.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Want each and every one of you to have a
great day. Everyone, take a little time.

Speaker 3 (20:35):
To enjoy the View, and remember the resistance is real.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
You're not alone. Let's lead him off.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Back to Clooney for a minute. Clooney, he's met at
ms DNC. You're supposed to be my friend, So what
you're not supposed to call He's not supposed to be
called out for his role I might have been, or
if they think he might have been involved in the
Biden coup that backfired and failed spectacularly, and dragging up
his comments and his you know the crap that him

(21:03):
and his wife of his said.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
He's just a jackass. He is a jackass. These actors
and actresses they think they they think they're smoking man.
They think they are the greatest, best people on earth.
I don't know why people want to be friends with
those people. I really don't. I have no desire to
hang out with George Clooney. I bet he has no
desire to hang out with me. Well, I actually think
Mika probably is onto something. That's my guess, George Clooney.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
But but well, what do you mean it just buzn't
Come on, who do you think it was? It was
not Matt Damon, it wasn't Julia Roberts.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
Do you think it was You can say the name.
It's not Boltimo, work. Are you saying you think Barack
Obama put him up to this?

Speaker 3 (21:47):
I think that Barack Obama has a lot of influence,
and I think that there's there's a lot there.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
There's a lot there, There's a lot there, There's a
lot there.

Speaker 3 (21:59):
Really, there are two people in this picture, and one
has had a presidency that was absolutely, undeniably historic. Well,
I think you have two people that had extraordinarily historic
in terms of it.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
I can't take it anymore. I don't know how people
I can't take it. I don't think anybody in the
right mind could watch that show after a doze audit.
The Social Security Administration has removed nearly ten million social
Security accounts listed for retirees that are over one hundred
and twenty years old. Checkmate Elon Musk right again. Now,

(22:37):
Trump does want Musk to stay on. Is is outside
the government appointment as only supposed to laugh last one
hundred and thirty eight days. He said, Elon's fantastic, He's
a patriot. He wants them to stay at the White
House as long as he like, and that he personally
wants him to stay on as long as possible. I
like smart people. He's smart I like him personally, We're

(22:58):
in no rush and at some point, I mean, he
does have to get back to his businesses. And then
people are trying to say, ah see, people are getting
sick of Elon Musk. He's become a liability. Not to me,
I think he's doing the American people a favor. I'm
grateful and thanks if a lot of thanks he gets.
He gets bullets in his dealerships, he gets firebombed dealerships,
he gets his cars burned up, he gets his charging

(23:20):
stations burned up, and he gets death threats. Gee, the
thanks you get for helping your country and making the
world a better place. Let's just hate him.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
We told you yesterday about Russia warning on Iran. Iran
is getting very interesting right now. The reigning UN officials
now have abandoned the hoodie allies after relentless bombardment were
ordered by Trump. I'm telling you right now that there
is a coming to Jesus moment coming.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
It's gotta happen.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
I don't want war, but I but you have to
understand the mindset of people that believe in convert or die,
that threaten to wipe busines, rail off the map in
White for America off the map. And if you have
that converter die insane ideology guiding you, then, as far
as I'm concerned, if you think God's telling you to

(24:12):
do all this crap and to strap bombs on kids
and tell them to go kill themselves and promising them
seventy two virgins in heaven, You're not in a really
good position to negotiate with these people, because by virtue
of their very ideology, they're going to lie to you anyway.
Pam Bondi wants the death penalty for a homicidal illegal

(24:35):
alien gang member who stabbed his victim one hundred times
before shooting him in the head. Ice has deported one
hundred and seventy four Biden illegals who had a combined
total of six hundred criminal convictions, including homicide and rape.
Remember what I would say during the campaign, Kamala, Joe
may Orchis, they all have blood.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
On their hands.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
I blame them for Americans murdered, raped, victims of island crime,
of people that die of drug overdoses.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
I blame them. They did nothing but lie to us
for three straight years. A federal judge has found that
Trump's American first slogan is racist towards immigrants. Can't make
this up. Meanwhile, Trump continues to be successful, with border
apprehensions down ninety five percent from last year, a whopping

(25:25):
ninety five percent. New York Times even put out Trump
the deportations will raise wages. One US attorney Massachusetts blasting
a Suffolk County DA and a judge who held an
ICE agent in contempt as tensions continue. The guy, the
ICE agent was doing his job, which he's legally authorized

(25:46):
to do. And by the way, under the Constitution and
the Supremacy Clause, sorry, the federal government has jurisdiction and
authority over a state and over a local municips. And
the fact that they arrested this guy during a trial, well,
whenever you get a chance to arrest somebody on your
arrest list, you arrest them. That's called doing your job.

(26:09):
Thank you for doing your job. The alleged Vegas MS
thirteen gang leader linked to eleven murders as was arrested
in Long Island. I think I brought that one up yesterday,
And you know, I don't know how we find all
these people and make this country safe again. Lindsey Graham
has very successfully led this effort to bypass the Senate

(26:34):
Parliamentarian so that the presidents no tax on tips, no
tax on social security, no tax on overtime, making the
Trump tax cuts permanent, providing the money needed to secure
our border into poor criminals, and the monies to get
our energy dominance program up and running is working. Last
night the motion to proceed went through. They're going to

(26:57):
have a voter rama late into the morning tonight, and
then the real votes will take place next week. I
have plans that I will announce on Monday on this program.
Let's put it this way. I'm going back to our
nation's capital. Why Because I want to do the best
shows I can possibly do for you, my beloved audience.
That's what we do.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
It is funny, by the way, with Obama and Kamala
only coming out now they're attacking. By the way, well,
first of all, AOC is leading Schumer by nineteen points
and a head to head pole that just came out,
which I love nineteen points. But Obama and Kamala they're
only coming out against Trump. It doesn't mean a thing

(27:38):
what they say. If they had any impact, Kamala would
be president and I'd be pretty miserable, and so would
most of you
