Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Friday, so fake news you can trust from the
Babylon Bee. Obama declares he can't be charged with treason
because he wasn't born in this country, and Trump to
balance the budget by introducing a swear jar for Democrats.
Now for the real thing. Nobody is closer to a
(00:21):
president than his chief of staff by his side every
day in the Oval Office, the situation room on Air
Force One. Joe Biden's was longtime deep state liberal political
bully Ron Klain. He was in front of the House
Oversight Committee answering questions about his president's health, mind, energy,
Did he know what he was doing and running the country?
(00:43):
Admits Biden's energy lagged, was more forgetful, confused, but certainly
up to the job. Clain says others, namely Hillary Clinton
and Biden's own National security boss Jake Sullivan, had greater doubts.
Per the infamous auto pen, the high tech device presidents
use to sign things from letters to pardons. Klaan disputes
(01:04):
the common belief that other people in the White House
were using it, but unlike other Biden Pullet Bureau members,
at least Klaan didn't wear out the fifth Amendment. Terry
Jean Bullyau died yesterday in Clearwater, Florida, at seventy one.
We know him as the pro wrestler pop culture icon
Hulk Hogan. How big was the hulkster Well? He was
(01:28):
the most requested celebrity for Make a Wish, Cancer Kids
Grace the covers of Sports, Illustrated, TV Guide, People Magazine,
Made Movies, had his own Saturday Morning cartoon hosted Saturday
Night Live. Painful video yesterday when the President and FED
Chair J Powell toured the billion dollar redo of the
FED Building together, openly bickering over the project, which is
(01:51):
thirty two percent over budget price tag today two point
six billion. It's a palace, rooftop gardens, skylights, ornate water features,
private elevators, Italian marble floors, bee hives installed on the roof,
climate controlled lower level art gallery hosting the Fed's private
art collection. The Federal Reserve is the government's bank. Supposed
(02:13):
to be self sufficient. In the last two years it
has lost two hundred billion dollars. First red ink in
its one hundred year history. You know, the French monarchy
of King Louis the sixteenth collapsed right about the time
they opened the Palace at Versailles. The daytime TV talk
show The View Is On Hiatus, produced hosted and syndicated
(02:35):
by the late Barbara Walters. The original content was strictly
about professional, social and cultural issues for women, devolved into
five angry liberal women who became national punchlines railing on
conservative politics and in particular Donald Trump. Hiatus usually means
gone for good. President Trump's daughter in law Lara will
(02:56):
not run for the Senate seat from her home state
of North Carolina. Popular Democrat Governor Roy Cooper has all
been announced he's in. This will be a tough hold
for the GOP. The Happy Gilmour sequel is out. Netflix
released it this morning. A lot of the movie is
honoring dead characters from Happy Gilmour I Fetching. Julie Bowen,
(03:17):
who played love interest Virginia, killed by one of Happy's
errant drives after they had four kids, is a ghost.
Happy visits Bob Barker's grave. That's a funny scene. You'll
probably like it. James Moss, the Cornell professor who coined
the phrase power nap, dies at eighty three, twenty minutes
in the afternoon. Makes you a better not Lazier employee,
(03:37):
one of the fifteen hundred on one of the fifteen
hundred pages of Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. As an IR
for newborns starting in twenty twenty six, every newborn from
January twenty twenty five to December twenty twenty eight gets
one thousand in seed money from Uncle Sam. You can
add to it and it grows tax free. Wait until
(03:59):
fifty nine and a half, no penalty, but you can
take it out for college and just pay the tax.
They do restrict you on investment options. Must use low
cost mutual funds and US equities. Probably a better deal
to just let Grandpa and grandma do a custodial ira,
but at least Washington is trying to take the load
off Social Security. One more Sign of the Times memes
(04:22):
sent in by listener Randy. Say what you want about
the South, but nobody retires and moves north.
