Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stay right here for our final news round up and
information overload.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
All right, News Roundup and information overload. Our toll free
on numbers eight hundred and nine point one, Sean if
you want to be a part of the program. All right,
We've spent a lot of time today talking about the
economy and the Trump tariff effect, and there's a lot
that has happened. By the way, inflation has cooled off
(00:24):
dramatically under Donald Trump. Unemployment has come down, job creation
has gone up. Gasoline is down nearly seven percent, airline
fare is down five point three percent, hotels motels four
point three percent. Reynolds have gone down nearly three percent.
We've listed everything involving China, and we now have watched
(00:46):
the communist Chinese refer to American citizens as mere peasants.
Can't make that part up, but it is what it is.
And you know, they have ratcheted up their war with
the United States in terms of tariffs. Now, the list
of tariffs that I have that China impose on us
(01:07):
is massive.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
It is unprecedented.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
It is pretty much every product we have and sell
inside of China is subject to massive tariffs. You finally
have a president that is willing to stand up and
say we're not going to be ripped off anymore, and
so China wants to exert as much power as they
think that they have. And how this plays out ultimately,
(01:31):
I don't have the answer to. I believe the rest
of the world will make deals, and I think we're
going to see it in the days and weeks ahead,
deal after deal after deal that hasn't been accomplished in
fifty or sixty years. But you know that's not the
only thing related to the economy. Steve Moore, our friend,
has a message to Republicans, quote, stop talking about tariffs,
(01:52):
start talking about tax cuts. Congress has got to prioritize
making the Trump tax cuts permanent by Memorial Day to
ensure America's prosperity. Anyway that we know, Steve Moore, welcome
back to the program. We know that that policy is
in full effect. And now the motion to proceed has
gone forward, and now it's the nitty gritty details that
(02:13):
we're ultimately getting into.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Well, Sean, great to be with you, and I like
the way you summarize the economy. I think they're spot on.
You know, we hit a rough patch for about two
or three weeks there, but the economy is adjusted. I
think Americans have adjusted to the fact that we are
in a trade war with China, whether we like it
or not. I think we've probably been in a twenty
year trade war with China. We're just finally recognizing it.
(02:36):
And we have a president of striking back, and bravo
to him. And I'm not a huge tear fan, as
you know, but I do think. You know, we're dealing
with a with a wretched leadership in China, and presidency
has to go and if they want to, they want
to go titcat for us on trade war. I mean,
they're going to go into a great depression. So I
don't see how that works out for them.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Look on the tab, what what about this part in particular,
because there are certain rare earth exports that China has
ninety percent of the world's supply, and these are elements
that are vital and critical for example, for electric vehicles,
that would impact Tesla, that would impact Boeing, that would
(03:19):
impact the aircraft and defense sectors. All right, So then
the question becomes, all right, so they do have a
little bit of leverage and they're using it. However, how
long can their economy withstand separation from the rest of
the world.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Well, we're going to find out whether the rest of
the real world separates from China as we look to
be doing. And if they don't, I don't think they're
our allies. This was a declaration of economic war by China,
and we're going to really find out. You know, which
of these European countries, what about Japan, what about Korea?
What about Canada? Will they side with us or will
(03:57):
they side with the Chinese? I hope they don't choose wrongly.
But you raised this point about the critical minerals, and
this just infuriates me because I've been writing for ten
years about this Sean. You know what country in the
world has the most critical minerals?
Speaker 3 (04:11):
The US?
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yes, we have some.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Is it the minerals that were that ninety percent? Have
we've been importing from China? Do we have the exact
same ones that are necessary for the defense industry, electric
car industry, and other important industries.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
We have virtually all of them, and we have them
in the mountains of Montana, we have the mountains of Dakota's,
we have Colorado. You know, we are so resource rich,
just like we have a huge amount of energy. Now
you might ask the question, well, if we have them,
why haven't we mined for them. That's because the radical
left is basically shut down our mining industry in this
country for the last twenty five years. Sean, it is
(04:52):
almost criminally negligent that we are now dependent on China
for our minerals when we have them right in our
own backyard. Guarantee you, Donald Trump and his interior sector
and his energy sectory are wholly committed to reviving our
mining industry. Unfortunately, that's going to take a while because
we've been negligent for the last twenty five years. So
we're going to have to deal with the situation we
(05:15):
put ourselves in. But we need to be energy and
mineral self sufficient, and we have the resources to do it, all.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Right, What do we do in the interim during the transition,
if in fact that China digs in their heels.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Well, you know, it's not just China that has these resources.
There are a lot of other countries that do too,
and so we're gonna have to, you know, have to
persuade them to sell those critical minerals to us. But
I don't think we're in as big a buying as
China believes we are, and again they can't win this
fight that their economy is completely dependent on having access
(05:50):
to our twenty two trillion dollar consumer society and we're
the biggest shopping mall in the world in terms of
China and that like, can I say this to your listeners,
because you have so many dedicated patriotic Americans, just stop
buying their stuff. I mean, do you really have to pay,
you know, save two dollars to buy a T shirt
(06:11):
from China or three dollars on shoes lea shit as
a country as simply and we don't need the government
to tell us to do that. We can do that ourselves. Sean,
I do it. I don't buy chulse from China.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Well, I listen, I agree with you, and I do
prefer when I can buy American and knowingly can buy American.
I try to buy American too, And you know, look,
I have no fear. I think the rest of the
world fully understands the reality that for fifty to sixty years,
and this is where I think Donald Trump can get
(06:41):
a massive win if if we keep it very simple
and we will put aside issues like trade deficits and
currency manipulation, which I think maybe we're putting too much
on the table. And if you kept it very simple
to free and fair trade or reciprocal tariffs your choice.
(07:02):
What what relationship do you want with the United States,
especially allied nations like Canada, like the European Union, that
both rely on US for their national security right, and
maybe we put on the table why don't you buy
your natural gas from US and energy from US. I
(07:24):
think it would be a win win win situation. But
I think you know what these countries eventually do.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
I think you're going to see some countries move very
quickly and I think others will be a little bit slower.
And you know, for whatever reason, they like the system
the way it is where they have the advantage over
US and abuse US.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
But you know, my point is, Sean, if they do that,
they're not our allies. I think they're not our ally
if they're siding with China over US. I want to
bring up one other quick.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Point if I make you, can you imagine any scenario
where the European Union, Canada, India, Taiwan, hands South Korea,
ever ever side with China over us.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
They're saying that some of these countries are saying to Trump, well, gee,
if you're going to put these terrorists on us, we're gonna,
you know, we're going to trade with China instead of you,
which I think is outrageous. I mean, given them what
have respect, that's a trillion dollars.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
What countries are saying.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
That, Well, I will get you the list, Sean. I
will get in a list of these countries whose leaders
say they have said, well, you know Trump is imposing
these terrorists, maybe we will h we'll start buying more
from China. And I think, and I don't have the
list in front of me, but I will get it
for you and you can read it to your readers.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
So they want to get into bed with the country
that charges the most tariffs in the world, that is
the country that's least reliable and least trustworthy. And as
soon as the minute they become dependent on China, and
China will just rip them off the way they've been
ripping off everybody else, of course, and by the way,
using sweatshop labor to get it all accomplished.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
And so so I don't think that's going to happen,
but they've been threatening some of our quote allies have
been threatening us after we spent almost a trillion dollars
over the last forty years on NATO, you know, protecting
their security in their own backyard. The other big issue
that's emerged just the last two days or so is
there is now increased talk of quote paying for him
(09:20):
using that in quotes. The tax cut, which is just
basically extending the tax tip that already exists from twenty
seventeen by raising the top income tax are eight on
millionaires to forty percent. That would be a higher tax
rate than we had under Bill Clinton, under Barack Obama,
under Joe Biden. We cannot allow that. To have a
great book by my buddy Art Laugher called the Taxes
(09:43):
have Consequences. He shows very clearly and every single time
we've tried to quote tax the rich like that, three
things have happened. It's hurt the economy because these are
small businessmen and women who pay that highest income tax rate.
The rich find ways around those because they hire tax accountants,
and the burden of the tax system has gone on
(10:05):
the middle class. It's a terrible idea. Please the guy
I know you're close to balance. We all have to
tell him, don't go for that deal. There's plenty of
ways we can get the revenue we need.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
By the way, who's pushing this idea on him?
Speaker 1 (10:18):
You know it's coming from some of the guys in
the White House, some of the And I guarantee you know,
you know my friend Grover Norquist. I'm sure you know
he is.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
I do pledge.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, two hundred of almost two hundred of the House
Republicans have taken a pledge not to raise tax rates.
If that bill is in there, they would have to
violate their pledge to their voters.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Well, I don't understand the fallacy as a supply sider,
and somebody that believes that can historically prove and I
can build out any chart that you wanted. Every time
we've lowered taxes in this country, from JFK to Reagan too,
Donald Trump in his first term, it has resulted in
massive revenue increases. The problem always becomes of every new
(11:02):
dollar Washington brings in, they'll spend a buck fifty or
more in some cases.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Well, you're exactly right on those statistics. And the last
two Republican presidents who raised tax rates were well, of
course George H. W. Bush remember read my lips, and
that didn't turn out so well for him. And before that,
you have to go all the way back to Herbert Hoover,
who raised taxes and up to sixty to seventy percent,
and he, you know that inflamed the Great Depression. So
(11:29):
we let's not go there again.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Quick break more with Steve Moore on the other side
than your calls coming up eight hundred and nine to
four one sewn. As we continue, I hope with Steve Moore,
as we talk about well the economy, tax cuts and
of course tariffs. Why do people falsely argue that Smoot
Hawley caused the Great Depression when that bill wasn't passed
(11:53):
until nine months after the crash in nineteen twenty nine.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Well, I mean that's some dispute. It is true that
every time the Smooth Holly moved through Congress the stock
market started to crash. But the bigger clause of the
Great dep I think it contributed to it. But the
bigger cause was the massive tax increases by Herbert Hoover,
who did all the wrong things and I think was
one of our worst presents. But the other point to
(12:20):
make is every you said it very well, but there's
repeating every time we've cut tax rates, like under Ronald
Reagan and Donald Trump, we got more taxes from the rich.
Did you you know this statistic, Sean, I've mentioned on
your show a couple of weeks ago on your TV show,
the top one percent pay almost happened the income tax.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, well we know that in the bottom fifty percent
pay what about two to three percent?
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Now, yeah, exactly so. And by the way, do you
think that if Trump does if the Republicans do this,
then the Democrats are still going to say it's a
tax cup for the rich, that's all what they always say.
This is not going to get him off their back.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I just think it's bad for the economy. On the
other hand, it seems to go against everything Donald Trump
has ever believed it. I mean, I think he's always
understood this, and I've been reading the same things you've
been reading. In frankly, I just haven't been believing it.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Well, I don't think it's going to happen, but it's
a threat. And we've got you know, Malpen Bob Novak.
You remember about Novak from Evans and Novak. He's say,
the only reason God put Republicans down there is to
cut our taxes. And if they're raising them, I don't.
I think it's going to split up party. I think
Republicans will lose the midterm elections. Don't go there. You
remember what happened in nineteen ninety two. Remember when Bush
(13:38):
raised taxes? We lost everything?
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Right?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Uh, pretty unbelievable to me, honest, I'm just I'm at
this point because of reconciliation. I mean, what Republicans would
go forward with the tax increase when they should be
making the the Trump tax cuts permanent and eliminating tax
on tips, social Security, and overtime because that's what the
(14:04):
President promised. Why would they go in any of the direction.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Because they're worried that Democrats are going to say what
they always say, tax cuts for the rich, when in fact,
after the Trump tax cut of twenty seventeen, the share
of taxes and the amount of taxes paid by the
rich went up, it didn't go down.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
All right, We really appreciate you, Steven Moore, and we'll
be watching Congress very closely. I agree with you that
it needs to happen by Memorial Day and if it does,
that also gives the economy time to recover, it begins
the process of recovering, because we've still been living under
the Biden Harris economy all this time.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Anyway, Steve Moore, thanks.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
For being with us eight hundred nine four one show
notes on number if you want to be a part
of the program. So on Fake News CNN they run
Taylor Lorenz and Taylor Lorenz, former Washington Post New York
Times reporter, and her comments praising Luigi Mangioni, which is
about as sick as it can be, the accused assassin
(15:07):
of this United Healthcare CEO. And here's what she said.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
You're going to see women especially that feel like, oh
my god, right, like, here's this man who who's revolutionary,
who's famous, who's handsome, who's young, who's smart, He's a
person that seems as like this morally good man, which
is hard to find.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
All Right.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
As a follow up, our friend Pierre's Morgan had Taylor
on his show, and here's how that went down.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
I just didn't like the whole ton of you know,
Donny replied one stage. You Yeah, I just realized women
will literally dating assassin before this swipe, right, on me,
that's where we are we're at and you both laughed.
What I didn't see, particularly from you'd say that was direct,
unequivocal condemnation of this. You kind of just went, yeah,
isn't it's weird? Isn't it rather than saying, isn't it
(15:58):
disgusting that these women are viewing him in this light?
Isn't it? Because it reminds me. It reminds me. It
reminds me of when we had the Boston marathon bombing
and you have the Zanaia of Brothers. I was on
air at CNN at the time. Who can me see
one of the most heinous acts of modern times in America?
And what was their reward for this? Rather than everyone
(16:20):
hating these people? And that ended up with have been
the cover of Rolling Stone magazine.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Pretty unbelievable. I mean, really, it is the New York
Times and Washington Post proud of their former employee employer. Anyway,
eight hundred ninety four to one, Shawn is a number
you want to be a part of the program. Liz
is in Colorado, Rocky Mountain High. Liz, how are you
glad you called hi?
Speaker 7 (16:41):
Sean. It's so great to speak with you today, and
I thank you for taking my call. I'm a regular
listener to your radio show and I do try to
watch at night when I can thank you. I just
wanted you to Yeah, I just want you to know.
I've learned so much from you, and I thank you
for just being a true patriot for our country. And
(17:03):
I think we need more people like you to just
teach all of us the things that we need to
know about what's going on with our country right now.
So I thank you and your team, and Linda appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Why do you want to thank Linda? I don't know why.
Everyone thanks Linda.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Linda is awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
She awesome. No, you got to say it the right way.
Linda is awesome.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
And if somebody wants to say I'm awesome, they can
say in any accent they want.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I'll take it, Eddie, I say that they want. No listen.
We're all very grateful to all of you. It's our
honor to be here every day.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
We don't take it for granted, and we appreciate the
fact that that you give us this microphone. You know,
we have a mission every day, Liz, and we work
hard at it, and that's to bring news information opinion,
a little bit of fun to the news of the
day that we know the state run legacy media mob
will never bring you. And we work very hard on
(17:57):
getting everything right. And you know, every day we work
to build trust with you our audience and tell you
the truth. And we really love this country and we
want it to be better. And I love the fact
that we have the opportunity of a lifetime to be transformational,
consequential and leave this country better than we found it.
(18:19):
And up until Donald Trump got back in office, I
was worried that our best days were behind us.
Speaker 7 (18:26):
To be honest, yeah I was a little worried too,
But I totally trust you and I just appreciate everything
you do for our country. And I, like I said,
I've learned so much. But the reason for my call
today is to thank you for inspiring me to make
a recent important decision. And on your show, you know,
(18:49):
when I listen, you talk a lot about the importance
of taking personal responsibility for our own safety. You know,
you talk about your mixed martial arts that you do,
the or a launcher for shooting or for non lethal force,
you know, and then the manti sex for shooting accuracy
So anyway, all of this prompted me to start taking
(19:11):
gun safety and shooting lessons with a local retired police officer,
and I've shot several of his handguns. And I had
it narrowed down to two manufacturers, but after listening and
really hearing your sig Sour commercials last week, I decided
to go with the Sig Hour and I purchased one
(19:34):
over the weekend. I get to pick it up tonight.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
And which one did you get? The P three twenty
or the P three? Which one did you get?
Speaker 7 (19:44):
I got the P three sixty five XL Rose and
I have not heard you about the Rose. It's a
I think it's like a It was helped developed in
collaboration with a world champion female shooter. It comes in
a packet. It's got a locking gun little case they
(20:05):
called a safe, the case safe, couple clips. It's really pretty.
It's got some Rose accents on it, and of training manual.
I can't wait to get it. I pick it up
tonight so I'll see everything that's inside. But I'm super exciting.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Are you Are you familiar with firearms? Is this the
first gun you've owned?
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Or no?
Speaker 7 (20:27):
Actually, so back in two thousand and eight due to
the political climate back then, I was worried about gun
confiscation and things like that. So I got my concealed
carry permit and I got a revolver, and it's just
not really fun to shoot. So I carried it for
a bit and then I just kind of put it
(20:48):
away and haven't done anything until I just keep hearing
you hammer away at all the personal safety stuff and
I thought, darn it, I need to get back into this.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Listen.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I think everybody needs a firearm in their house. My
only gentle recommendation is go to a range. One of
the great things about people that are firearm enthusiasts is
they're always so willing to help people that are starting
out or people that maybe you know, purchase the new
(21:21):
firearm and get familiar with that firearm, learn firearm safety.
I mean, that's what my parents did to me when
I was very young, and I became a pistol market
marksman at a young age. And only because my mom
being a prison guard, she had a revolver on, you know,
on her nightstand a lot of times, and they knew
they had a curious, you know, child in the house
(21:42):
that was rampunctious, and that was me. So it took
me down and I learned firearms safety and it became
an enthusiast at a pretty young age. I'd hang out
at that range. You know, I was probably annoying to
all the people that were there because I'd be there
so often. And then they spent the time and they
they taught me not only safety, but how to be,
(22:03):
you know, a marksman at that point, and I'm glad
that I learned. I've had to carry permit my entire
adult life, believe it or not. I had a carry
permit when I lived in New York City or New
York State. But I had one for New York City.
I had one because I worked there. I had one
when I lived in California. I had one in Alabama,
I had one in Georgia, and I have one here
(22:24):
in Florida. And I just as long as you take
safety and make safety a top priority, you're going to
be fine. The beauty of SIG Sour is they have
more engineers that work on the precision of those firearms
than any single company. As a matter of fact, I
would argue probably more engineers than every other company combined.
(22:46):
They keep building out the next generation of superior weaponry.
That's why our military the official side arm is a
sig Sour And I think that in terms of quality,
you can't get any better. And you made a really
good choice. Now, the Rose I haven't talked about because
I don't know if I would look very masculine with
(23:08):
a Rose version.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Sig Sour.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
Yeah, you need to definitely look into it. You can
buy the handgun separately. You can buy it in the
nine millimeter or the three eighty, but you can also
buy the kit and it comes with a I think
it comes with a video where she explains how to
assemble and disassemble your gun. And I will continue with
my instructor. He's going to show me all that stuff
(23:33):
because I want to be super comfortable with it.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, listen, then if you do that, that means you're
a responsible firearm owner. I've had many people over the
years call this show Hannay, I'm thinking about getting a gun.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
What should I get?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
An ak and ar And I'm like, okay, so just
take a deep breath, I said, I really, you can't
go wrong with a firearm for most families, probably if
it's just for home protection. Not for carry, which I
believe you should carry. I think for most people, a
shotgun is probably the answer for home security, and they're
(24:13):
very easy to use, and you can learn how to
use it very quickly, and you can get one that
you can handle, and it would take care of any
emergency if somebody invaded your house. I also believe in
the non lethal option, which is burner, and I actually
have both options available to me. But I applaud you
(24:33):
and your approach to this is frankly textbook, and I
hope that anybody that's considering it will consider that. Now
six hour they have the best academies ever in the
entire country for people that really want to take their
firearms level even higher. That's available to you as well,
(24:56):
and about a third of their employees they have nearly
four thousand employees military guys, and they're wonderful people. And
I'm just telling you from my own experience that I've
been at ranges where people maybe their gun jams or
maybe you know they're there. They have a new firearm
that they've never dealt with before, and they're afraid anybody
(25:17):
will stop what they're doing and spend all the time
that you need to help you and if you want
to get a lesson that they have people there that
will will spend spend the time to just give you
the individualized attention that willk you, you know, very comfortable
with the firearm and and I look, unfortunately, in this
day and age, I think everyone needs one, and I
wish it wasn't the case. But I'm giving you the
(25:38):
reality the way. You know, there's a violent crime every
twenty six seconds in this country. That tells you everything
you need to know.
Speaker 7 (25:47):
Well, I just thank you so much for inspiring me
to be on this journey. And I know that you've
probably inspired other women as well. You know, people just
don't always call in, but I just felt like I
needed to call in and tell you this and thank you.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Yeah, I appreciate it. Thanks Liz, glad you're out there.
Thanks for checking in with us today. I hope you'll
call back. All right, we have a minute. We'll give
it to Brian in North Carolina. Brian, how are you?
The minute is all yours? Make it count my friend.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Hey, Sean, it's a great pleasure to speak with you today.
I'm a big fan because of my late mother, so
she loved you absolutely loved you.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Thank you. I'm sorry you lost your mom.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Yeah, thank you. The reason I'm calling Isander Terri's a
really interesting standpoint as I listened to your show every day, Mike.
I work for a company that has a little less
than four hundred people, and we actually have a main
product that we ship in for manufacturing, and we've been
getting from China forever, and we actually just need the
(26:55):
move and we spend about four to five million dollars
and I'm sorry, I gotta be vague about it, but
we spit about forty five million dollars in this product.
We are in the process right now of changing where
we ship that from, and we're actually going to start
doing it from Korea.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Look, I read an article in the New York Post
today that small companies are being worried about the impact
that this short term pain will cause them, especially because
China has gotten so aggressive. I'm expecting the President will
sign deal after deal after deal after deal, and things
are going to settle down for most of with the
US and most of the world. China might be more protracted.
(27:35):
I think ultimately they come to the table. I think
ultimately they need access to our markets. That's my prediction,
that's my hope. I can't say for sure, but that's
what I believe will ultimately happen. In the meantime, people
like you are coming up with creative ways to find
alternative sources for goods and services that you need.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
That's being a good businessperson.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Anyway, my friend, I wish I had more time on
the clock here, but that's going to wrap things up
at today Hannity Tonight, nine eastern on the Fox News Channel,
Please set you dbr. Patty morn Rachel Morin's mother will
join us. She was the mother of five that was murdered. Well,
that murderer was convicted yesterday. We'll get her first reaction. Also,
(28:22):
Stephen A. Smith says, well, because of the mess of
the Democratic Party, I must leave open the door to run.
And what was with that poll yesterday. I think he
was being set up and being sent a message. We'll
find out his take. Laura Trump tonight, John Solomon tonight,
Dave Ramsey and don't forget. In our other news segment,
we'll check in with Clay Travis and we'll have our
(28:42):
viral videos of the day all coming up tonight, nine
Eastern Hannity on Fox. We'll see you then back here tomorrow.
Thank you for making this show possible.
Stay right here for our final news round up and
information overload.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
All right, News Roundup and information overload. Our toll free
on numbers eight hundred and nine point one, Sean if
you want to be a part of the program. All right,
We've spent a lot of time today talking about the
economy and the Trump tariff effect, and there's a lot
that has happened. By the way, inflation has cooled off
(00:24):
dramatically under Donald Trump. Unemployment has come down, job creation
has gone up. Gasoline is down nearly seven percent, airline
fare is down five point three percent, hotels motels four
point three percent. Reynolds have gone down nearly three percent.
We've listed everything involving China, and we now have watched
(00:46):
the communist Chinese refer to American citizens as mere peasants.
Can't make that part up, but it is what it is.
And you know, they have ratcheted up their war with
the United States in terms of tariffs. Now, the list
of tariffs that I have that China impose on us
(01:07):
is massive.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
It is unprecedented.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
It is pretty much every product we have and sell
inside of China is subject to massive tariffs. You finally
have a president that is willing to stand up and
say we're not going to be ripped off anymore, and
so China wants to exert as much power as they
think that they have. And how this plays out ultimately,
(01:31):
I don't have the answer to. I believe the rest
of the world will make deals, and I think we're
going to see it in the days and weeks ahead,
deal after deal after deal that hasn't been accomplished in
fifty or sixty years. But you know that's not the
only thing related to the economy. Steve Moore, our friend,
has a message to Republicans, quote, stop talking about tariffs,
(01:52):
start talking about tax cuts. Congress has got to prioritize
making the Trump tax cuts permanent by Memorial Day to
ensure America's prosperity. Anyway that we know, Steve Moore, welcome
back to the program. We know that that policy is
in full effect. And now the motion to proceed has
gone forward, and now it's the nitty gritty details that
(02:13):
we're ultimately getting into.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Well, Sean, great to be with you, and I like
the way you summarize the economy. I think they're spot on.
You know, we hit a rough patch for about two
or three weeks there, but the economy is adjusted. I
think Americans have adjusted to the fact that we are
in a trade war with China, whether we like it
or not. I think we've probably been in a twenty
year trade war with China. We're just finally recognizing it.
(02:36):
And we have a president of striking back, and bravo
to him. And I'm not a huge tear fan, as
you know, but I do think. You know, we're dealing
with a with a wretched leadership in China, and presidency
has to go and if they want to, they want
to go titcat for us on trade war. I mean,
they're going to go into a great depression. So I
don't see how that works out for them.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Look on the tab, what what about this part in particular,
because there are certain rare earth exports that China has
ninety percent of the world's supply, and these are elements
that are vital and critical for example, for electric vehicles,
that would impact Tesla, that would impact Boeing, that would
(03:19):
impact the aircraft and defense sectors. All right, So then
the question becomes, all right, so they do have a
little bit of leverage and they're using it. However, how
long can their economy withstand separation from the rest of
the world.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Well, we're going to find out whether the rest of
the real world separates from China as we look to
be doing. And if they don't, I don't think they're
our allies. This was a declaration of economic war by China,
and we're going to really find out. You know, which
of these European countries, what about Japan, what about Korea?
What about Canada? Will they side with us or will
(03:57):
they side with the Chinese? I hope they don't choose wrongly.
But you raised this point about the critical minerals, and
this just infuriates me because I've been writing for ten
years about this Sean. You know what country in the
world has the most critical minerals?
Speaker 3 (04:11):
The US?
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yes, we have some.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Is it the minerals that were that ninety percent? Have
we've been importing from China? Do we have the exact
same ones that are necessary for the defense industry, electric
car industry, and other important industries.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
We have virtually all of them, and we have them
in the mountains of Montana, we have the mountains of Dakota's,
we have Colorado. You know, we are so resource rich,
just like we have a huge amount of energy. Now
you might ask the question, well, if we have them,
why haven't we mined for them. That's because the radical
left is basically shut down our mining industry in this
country for the last twenty five years. Sean, it is
(04:52):
almost criminally negligent that we are now dependent on China
for our minerals when we have them right in our
own backyard. Guarantee you, Donald Trump and his interior sector
and his energy sectory are wholly committed to reviving our
mining industry. Unfortunately, that's going to take a while because
we've been negligent for the last twenty five years. So
we're going to have to deal with the situation we
(05:15):
put ourselves in. But we need to be energy and
mineral self sufficient, and we have the resources to do it, all.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Right, What do we do in the interim during the transition,
if in fact that China digs in their heels.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Well, you know, it's not just China that has these resources.
There are a lot of other countries that do too,
and so we're gonna have to, you know, have to
persuade them to sell those critical minerals to us. But
I don't think we're in as big a buying as
China believes we are, and again they can't win this
fight that their economy is completely dependent on having access
(05:50):
to our twenty two trillion dollar consumer society and we're
the biggest shopping mall in the world in terms of
China and that like, can I say this to your listeners,
because you have so many dedicated patriotic Americans, just stop
buying their stuff. I mean, do you really have to pay,
you know, save two dollars to buy a T shirt
(06:11):
from China or three dollars on shoes lea shit as
a country as simply and we don't need the government
to tell us to do that. We can do that ourselves. Sean,
I do it. I don't buy chulse from China.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Well, I listen, I agree with you, and I do
prefer when I can buy American and knowingly can buy American.
I try to buy American too, And you know, look,
I have no fear. I think the rest of the
world fully understands the reality that for fifty to sixty years,
and this is where I think Donald Trump can get
(06:41):
a massive win if if we keep it very simple
and we will put aside issues like trade deficits and
currency manipulation, which I think maybe we're putting too much
on the table. And if you kept it very simple
to free and fair trade or reciprocal tariffs your choice.
(07:02):
What what relationship do you want with the United States,
especially allied nations like Canada, like the European Union, that
both rely on US for their national security right, and
maybe we put on the table why don't you buy
your natural gas from US and energy from US. I
(07:24):
think it would be a win win win situation. But
I think you know what these countries eventually do.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
I think you're going to see some countries move very
quickly and I think others will be a little bit slower.
And you know, for whatever reason, they like the system
the way it is where they have the advantage over
US and abuse US.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
But you know, my point is, Sean, if they do that,
they're not our allies. I think they're not our ally
if they're siding with China over US. I want to
bring up one other quick.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Point if I make you, can you imagine any scenario
where the European Union, Canada, India, Taiwan, hands South Korea,
ever ever side with China over us.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
They're saying that some of these countries are saying to Trump, well, gee,
if you're going to put these terrorists on us, we're gonna,
you know, we're going to trade with China instead of you,
which I think is outrageous. I mean, given them what
have respect, that's a trillion dollars.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
What countries are saying.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
That, Well, I will get you the list, Sean. I
will get in a list of these countries whose leaders
say they have said, well, you know Trump is imposing
these terrorists, maybe we will h we'll start buying more
from China. And I think, and I don't have the
list in front of me, but I will get it
for you and you can read it to your readers.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
So they want to get into bed with the country
that charges the most tariffs in the world, that is
the country that's least reliable and least trustworthy. And as
soon as the minute they become dependent on China, and
China will just rip them off the way they've been
ripping off everybody else, of course, and by the way,
using sweatshop labor to get it all accomplished.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
And so so I don't think that's going to happen,
but they've been threatening some of our quote allies have
been threatening us after we spent almost a trillion dollars
over the last forty years on NATO, you know, protecting
their security in their own backyard. The other big issue
that's emerged just the last two days or so is
there is now increased talk of quote paying for him
(09:20):
using that in quotes. The tax cut, which is just
basically extending the tax tip that already exists from twenty
seventeen by raising the top income tax are eight on
millionaires to forty percent. That would be a higher tax
rate than we had under Bill Clinton, under Barack Obama,
under Joe Biden. We cannot allow that. To have a
great book by my buddy Art Laugher called the Taxes
(09:43):
have Consequences. He shows very clearly and every single time
we've tried to quote tax the rich like that, three
things have happened. It's hurt the economy because these are
small businessmen and women who pay that highest income tax rate.
The rich find ways around those because they hire tax accountants,
and the burden of the tax system has gone on
(10:05):
the middle class. It's a terrible idea. Please the guy
I know you're close to balance. We all have to
tell him, don't go for that deal. There's plenty of
ways we can get the revenue we need.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
By the way, who's pushing this idea on him?
Speaker 1 (10:18):
You know it's coming from some of the guys in
the White House, some of the And I guarantee you know,
you know my friend Grover Norquist. I'm sure you know
he is.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
I do pledge.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, two hundred of almost two hundred of the House
Republicans have taken a pledge not to raise tax rates.
If that bill is in there, they would have to
violate their pledge to their voters.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Well, I don't understand the fallacy as a supply sider,
and somebody that believes that can historically prove and I
can build out any chart that you wanted. Every time
we've lowered taxes in this country, from JFK to Reagan too,
Donald Trump in his first term, it has resulted in
massive revenue increases. The problem always becomes of every new
(11:02):
dollar Washington brings in, they'll spend a buck fifty or
more in some cases.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Well, you're exactly right on those statistics. And the last
two Republican presidents who raised tax rates were well, of
course George H. W. Bush remember read my lips, and
that didn't turn out so well for him. And before that,
you have to go all the way back to Herbert Hoover,
who raised taxes and up to sixty to seventy percent,
and he, you know that inflamed the Great Depression. So
(11:29):
we let's not go there again.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Quick break more with Steve Moore on the other side
than your calls coming up eight hundred and nine to
four one sewn. As we continue, I hope with Steve Moore,
as we talk about well the economy, tax cuts and
of course tariffs. Why do people falsely argue that Smoot
Hawley caused the Great Depression when that bill wasn't passed
(11:53):
until nine months after the crash in nineteen twenty nine.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Well, I mean that's some dispute. It is true that
every time the Smooth Holly moved through Congress the stock
market started to crash. But the bigger clause of the
Great dep I think it contributed to it. But the
bigger cause was the massive tax increases by Herbert Hoover,
who did all the wrong things and I think was
one of our worst presents. But the other point to
(12:20):
make is every you said it very well, but there's
repeating every time we've cut tax rates, like under Ronald
Reagan and Donald Trump, we got more taxes from the rich.
Did you you know this statistic, Sean, I've mentioned on
your show a couple of weeks ago on your TV show,
the top one percent pay almost happened the income tax.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, well we know that in the bottom fifty percent
pay what about two to three percent?
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Now, yeah, exactly so. And by the way, do you
think that if Trump does if the Republicans do this,
then the Democrats are still going to say it's a
tax cup for the rich, that's all what they always say.
This is not going to get him off their back.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I just think it's bad for the economy. On the
other hand, it seems to go against everything Donald Trump
has ever believed it. I mean, I think he's always
understood this, and I've been reading the same things you've
been reading. In frankly, I just haven't been believing it.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Well, I don't think it's going to happen, but it's
a threat. And we've got you know, Malpen Bob Novak.
You remember about Novak from Evans and Novak. He's say,
the only reason God put Republicans down there is to
cut our taxes. And if they're raising them, I don't.
I think it's going to split up party. I think
Republicans will lose the midterm elections. Don't go there. You
remember what happened in nineteen ninety two. Remember when Bush
(13:38):
raised taxes? We lost everything?
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Right?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Uh, pretty unbelievable to me, honest, I'm just I'm at
this point because of reconciliation. I mean, what Republicans would
go forward with the tax increase when they should be
making the the Trump tax cuts permanent and eliminating tax
on tips, social Security, and overtime because that's what the
(14:04):
President promised. Why would they go in any of the direction.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Because they're worried that Democrats are going to say what
they always say, tax cuts for the rich, when in fact,
after the Trump tax cut of twenty seventeen, the share
of taxes and the amount of taxes paid by the
rich went up, it didn't go down.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
All right, We really appreciate you, Steven Moore, and we'll
be watching Congress very closely. I agree with you that
it needs to happen by Memorial Day and if it does,
that also gives the economy time to recover, it begins
the process of recovering, because we've still been living under
the Biden Harris economy all this time.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Anyway, Steve Moore, thanks.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
For being with us eight hundred nine four one show
notes on number if you want to be a part
of the program. So on Fake News CNN they run
Taylor Lorenz and Taylor Lorenz, former Washington Post New York
Times reporter, and her comments praising Luigi Mangioni, which is
about as sick as it can be, the accused assassin
(15:07):
of this United Healthcare CEO. And here's what she said.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
You're going to see women especially that feel like, oh
my god, right, like, here's this man who who's revolutionary,
who's famous, who's handsome, who's young, who's smart, He's a
person that seems as like this morally good man, which
is hard to find.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
All Right.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
As a follow up, our friend Pierre's Morgan had Taylor
on his show, and here's how that went down.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
I just didn't like the whole ton of you know,
Donny replied one stage. You Yeah, I just realized women
will literally dating assassin before this swipe, right, on me,
that's where we are we're at and you both laughed.
What I didn't see, particularly from you'd say that was direct,
unequivocal condemnation of this. You kind of just went, yeah,
isn't it's weird? Isn't it rather than saying, isn't it
(15:58):
disgusting that these women are viewing him in this light?
Isn't it? Because it reminds me. It reminds me. It
reminds me of when we had the Boston marathon bombing
and you have the Zanaia of Brothers. I was on
air at CNN at the time. Who can me see
one of the most heinous acts of modern times in America?
And what was their reward for this? Rather than everyone
(16:20):
hating these people? And that ended up with have been
the cover of Rolling Stone magazine.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Pretty unbelievable. I mean, really, it is the New York
Times and Washington Post proud of their former employee employer. Anyway,
eight hundred ninety four to one, Shawn is a number
you want to be a part of the program. Liz
is in Colorado, Rocky Mountain High. Liz, how are you
glad you called hi?
Speaker 7 (16:41):
Sean. It's so great to speak with you today, and
I thank you for taking my call. I'm a regular
listener to your radio show and I do try to
watch at night when I can thank you. I just
wanted you to Yeah, I just want you to know.
I've learned so much from you, and I thank you
for just being a true patriot for our country. And
(17:03):
I think we need more people like you to just
teach all of us the things that we need to
know about what's going on with our country right now.
So I thank you and your team, and Linda appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Why do you want to thank Linda? I don't know why.
Everyone thanks Linda.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Linda is awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
She awesome. No, you got to say it the right way.
Linda is awesome.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
And if somebody wants to say I'm awesome, they can
say in any accent they want.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I'll take it, Eddie, I say that they want. No listen.
We're all very grateful to all of you. It's our
honor to be here every day.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
We don't take it for granted, and we appreciate the
fact that that you give us this microphone. You know,
we have a mission every day, Liz, and we work
hard at it, and that's to bring news information opinion,
a little bit of fun to the news of the
day that we know the state run legacy media mob
will never bring you. And we work very hard on
(17:57):
getting everything right. And you know, every day we work
to build trust with you our audience and tell you
the truth. And we really love this country and we
want it to be better. And I love the fact
that we have the opportunity of a lifetime to be transformational,
consequential and leave this country better than we found it.
(18:19):
And up until Donald Trump got back in office, I
was worried that our best days were behind us.
Speaker 7 (18:26):
To be honest, yeah I was a little worried too,
But I totally trust you and I just appreciate everything
you do for our country. And I, like I said,
I've learned so much. But the reason for my call
today is to thank you for inspiring me to make
a recent important decision. And on your show, you know,
(18:49):
when I listen, you talk a lot about the importance
of taking personal responsibility for our own safety. You know,
you talk about your mixed martial arts that you do,
the or a launcher for shooting or for non lethal force,
you know, and then the manti sex for shooting accuracy
So anyway, all of this prompted me to start taking
(19:11):
gun safety and shooting lessons with a local retired police officer,
and I've shot several of his handguns. And I had
it narrowed down to two manufacturers, but after listening and
really hearing your sig Sour commercials last week, I decided
to go with the Sig Hour and I purchased one
(19:34):
over the weekend. I get to pick it up tonight.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
And which one did you get? The P three twenty
or the P three? Which one did you get?
Speaker 7 (19:44):
I got the P three sixty five XL Rose and
I have not heard you about the Rose. It's a
I think it's like a It was helped developed in
collaboration with a world champion female shooter. It comes in
a packet. It's got a locking gun little case they
(20:05):
called a safe, the case safe, couple clips. It's really pretty.
It's got some Rose accents on it, and of training manual.
I can't wait to get it. I pick it up
tonight so I'll see everything that's inside. But I'm super exciting.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Are you Are you familiar with firearms? Is this the
first gun you've owned?
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Or no?
Speaker 7 (20:27):
Actually, so back in two thousand and eight due to
the political climate back then, I was worried about gun
confiscation and things like that. So I got my concealed
carry permit and I got a revolver, and it's just
not really fun to shoot. So I carried it for
a bit and then I just kind of put it
(20:48):
away and haven't done anything until I just keep hearing
you hammer away at all the personal safety stuff and
I thought, darn it, I need to get back into this.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Listen.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I think everybody needs a firearm in their house. My
only gentle recommendation is go to a range. One of
the great things about people that are firearm enthusiasts is
they're always so willing to help people that are starting
out or people that maybe you know, purchase the new
(21:21):
firearm and get familiar with that firearm, learn firearm safety.
I mean, that's what my parents did to me when
I was very young, and I became a pistol market
marksman at a young age. And only because my mom
being a prison guard, she had a revolver on, you know,
on her nightstand a lot of times, and they knew
they had a curious, you know, child in the house
(21:42):
that was rampunctious, and that was me. So it took
me down and I learned firearms safety and it became
an enthusiast at a pretty young age. I'd hang out
at that range. You know, I was probably annoying to
all the people that were there because I'd be there
so often. And then they spent the time and they
they taught me not only safety, but how to be,
(22:03):
you know, a marksman at that point, and I'm glad
that I learned. I've had to carry permit my entire
adult life, believe it or not. I had a carry
permit when I lived in New York City or New
York State. But I had one for New York City.
I had one because I worked there. I had one
when I lived in California. I had one in Alabama,
I had one in Georgia, and I have one here
(22:24):
in Florida. And I just as long as you take
safety and make safety a top priority, you're going to
be fine. The beauty of SIG Sour is they have
more engineers that work on the precision of those firearms
than any single company. As a matter of fact, I
would argue probably more engineers than every other company combined.
(22:46):
They keep building out the next generation of superior weaponry.
That's why our military the official side arm is a
sig Sour And I think that in terms of quality,
you can't get any better. And you made a really
good choice. Now, the Rose I haven't talked about because
I don't know if I would look very masculine with
(23:08):
a Rose version.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Sig Sour.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
Yeah, you need to definitely look into it. You can
buy the handgun separately. You can buy it in the
nine millimeter or the three eighty, but you can also
buy the kit and it comes with a I think
it comes with a video where she explains how to
assemble and disassemble your gun. And I will continue with
my instructor. He's going to show me all that stuff
(23:33):
because I want to be super comfortable with it.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, listen, then if you do that, that means you're
a responsible firearm owner. I've had many people over the
years call this show Hannay, I'm thinking about getting a gun.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
What should I get?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
An ak and ar And I'm like, okay, so just
take a deep breath, I said, I really, you can't
go wrong with a firearm for most families, probably if
it's just for home protection. Not for carry, which I
believe you should carry. I think for most people, a
shotgun is probably the answer for home security, and they're
(24:13):
very easy to use, and you can learn how to
use it very quickly, and you can get one that
you can handle, and it would take care of any
emergency if somebody invaded your house. I also believe in
the non lethal option, which is burner, and I actually
have both options available to me. But I applaud you
(24:33):
and your approach to this is frankly textbook, and I
hope that anybody that's considering it will consider that. Now
six hour they have the best academies ever in the
entire country for people that really want to take their
firearms level even higher. That's available to you as well,
(24:56):
and about a third of their employees they have nearly
four thousand employees military guys, and they're wonderful people. And
I'm just telling you from my own experience that I've
been at ranges where people maybe their gun jams or
maybe you know they're there. They have a new firearm
that they've never dealt with before, and they're afraid anybody
(25:17):
will stop what they're doing and spend all the time
that you need to help you and if you want
to get a lesson that they have people there that
will will spend spend the time to just give you
the individualized attention that willk you, you know, very comfortable
with the firearm and and I look, unfortunately, in this
day and age, I think everyone needs one, and I
wish it wasn't the case. But I'm giving you the
(25:38):
reality the way. You know, there's a violent crime every
twenty six seconds in this country. That tells you everything
you need to know.
Speaker 7 (25:47):
Well, I just thank you so much for inspiring me
to be on this journey. And I know that you've
probably inspired other women as well. You know, people just
don't always call in, but I just felt like I
needed to call in and tell you this and thank you.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Yeah, I appreciate it. Thanks Liz, glad you're out there.
Thanks for checking in with us today. I hope you'll
call back. All right, we have a minute. We'll give
it to Brian in North Carolina. Brian, how are you?
The minute is all yours? Make it count my friend.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Hey, Sean, it's a great pleasure to speak with you today.
I'm a big fan because of my late mother, so
she loved you absolutely loved you.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Thank you. I'm sorry you lost your mom.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Yeah, thank you. The reason I'm calling Isander Terri's a
really interesting standpoint as I listened to your show every day, Mike.
I work for a company that has a little less
than four hundred people, and we actually have a main
product that we ship in for manufacturing, and we've been
getting from China forever, and we actually just need the
(26:55):
move and we spend about four to five million dollars
and I'm sorry, I gotta be vague about it, but
we spit about forty five million dollars in this product.
We are in the process right now of changing where
we ship that from, and we're actually going to start
doing it from Korea.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Look, I read an article in the New York Post
today that small companies are being worried about the impact
that this short term pain will cause them, especially because
China has gotten so aggressive. I'm expecting the President will
sign deal after deal after deal after deal, and things
are going to settle down for most of with the
US and most of the world. China might be more protracted.
(27:35):
I think ultimately they come to the table. I think
ultimately they need access to our markets. That's my prediction,
that's my hope. I can't say for sure, but that's
what I believe will ultimately happen. In the meantime, people
like you are coming up with creative ways to find
alternative sources for goods and services that you need.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
That's being a good businessperson.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Anyway, my friend, I wish I had more time on
the clock here, but that's going to wrap things up
at today Hannity Tonight, nine eastern on the Fox News Channel,
