Speaker 1 (00:07):
Well, no one altered investment banking, consumer advocate, analyst trader
Chris Markowski is the watchdog on Wall Street.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Do you want to answer exposing the lines and myths
that the big brokerage firms, the mainstream press, and the
government are pushing to keep Americans away from financial freedom.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
You can't handle the truth bringing America the truth about
what really happens in the financial world.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
We're not here to indulge in fantasy, but in political
and economic reality.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
This is the watchdog Wall Streets.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
All right, welcome back, everybody. I have to I'm gonna
address something. I'm gonna be honest you. I can't recall
whether or not I talked about this several weeks ago
here on the radio show. I knew, I know, I
hit it on the hit on the podcast. There's no
doubt about that. You gotta you gotta bear with me.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
People. I'm getting I'm getting a little longer in.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
The tooth, and I do a lot of a lot
of content over the course of the week with this show,
the podcast, and the guest appearances that I have. And
this had to do with this had to do with
blowing up boats in the Caribbean and the war on
drugs I have. I've talked about this for a long
(01:28):
time here on the program, and again it's it's how
our government likes to frame things, like the media like
to frame things. Everything is a war, war on poverty,
war on crime, war on drugs, war on.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Terror, war, war, war, war, war.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
We're we're in a pretty much here in the United States,
a perpetual state of war. That's that's how we are
addressed here in this country. It's fascinating because again, in
other places that I go to around the globe, they
don't they don't do that. Maybe I don't know, I
can't remember exactly what I said. I did get, you know,
(02:10):
several emails from people. Maybe I was being a bit
flippant when it came to the boats being blown up
in the Caribbean by the the US Navy, and and
I said, you know, I said, America really doesn't give
a darn about this right now. It's not a big
story to most Americans. So what's really important to Americans
(02:33):
is inflation, and you know, all of these things that
are affecting their pocketbooks and the layoffs and all this
other stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
And you got actually got a couple messages.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
And you know, sometimes when I get these messages, I said,
maybe I didn't frame something the right way, and I
kind of I do. I take things to heart. I
want to be perfectly clear here on the program. These
messages had to do with the fact that Chris, you know,
you know, I know more people, want to paraphrase, I
know more people that died you know, drug abuse over
(03:05):
the years than COVID. And you know, more Americans have
died due to opiate opiate abuse than in all of
our wars combined. And again I I know this because
we've talked about it here.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
On the program.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
We've talked about this for years here on the program. Now,
the boats, okay, the boats that are being blown up
in the Caribbean.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Listen, people, they're not carrying fannyl. They're not.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Okay, drug dealers, they're not stupid. Okay, they're not okay,
these cartel guys, they're not dumb. What's coming from that
area of the world. Colombia, Bolivia, maybe Venezuela. Maybe it's
not Venezuela. That's cocaine, man, that's cocaine. I mean, this
(04:09):
is part of the whole plate line of breaking bad
with crystal meth and the fact that they were thrilled
with crystal meth because guess what, they didn't need to
move the actual cocoa leaves from Venezuela, I mean from
Colombia all the way and refine it, do all that
(04:29):
stuff that you could.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
It was crystal meth, you could just do it right there.
It doesn't come there. Comes from Mexico, man, it comes
from Mexico.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
And you can take a look at the size, the
square footage of an area that it takes to produce
this illicit fentanyl. It's small. There's no business reason for
it to be done that. It doesn't make any sense.
It would drive the cost up of your product. Again,
as far as they build this models concerned, they're not
(05:01):
going to do that. What has gotten I mentioned this
here on the show. What has come back here in
the United States is cocaine. Cocaine is now a It's
now a hot drug once again.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
It is. And let's you know, be honest people.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Okay, you know I worked on Wall Street, Okay back
in the day, and let me tell you something. Yeah,
without doubt, saw my fair share of people doing cocaine.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I saw my fair share of people that got.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Addicted to cocaine and needed help because of cocaine. It's
like that Dave Chappelle skit there with Rick James. Cocaine
a hell of a drug. Yeah, can do un godly harm.
But at the height, at the height of the crack epidemic,
cocaine epidemic in this country was ten thousand deaths a year.
(05:59):
It's not nothing, Okay, it's not, but that was at
the height fentanyl, crank, these other things. That's what's been
doing the killing. And you know what's led that on. Okay,
bloody oxy cotton and the Sackler family who are billionaires
(06:20):
walking the streets.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Of this country.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Do I think what the administration is doing? Do I
think it's a bit of a show right now?
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Yeah? I do. I do convince me otherwise. Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
And you know, I know people make fun of Rand
Paul and you know again, I'm a huge Rand Paul fan,
huge Thomas Massey fan. I believe in the rule of law.
I believe in the United States Constitution. But Trump Trump
declared he declared the drug cartells as terrorist organizations, which
(06:59):
means what it falls under the authorization for use of
military force again effective September eighteen, two thousand and one,
under George W. Bush, which has basically given an enormous
amount of power to the President of the United States
to do whatever they want to do when it comes
(07:22):
to terrorism, attack whatever they want. If it's a terrorist
organization they see fit, they can do it. Oh sure,
it limits it. They can't use nukes for crying out loud,
but they can go nuts. And I'm sorry people, you
go back to Post nine to eleven and all of
(07:42):
the garbage Patriarch, all of the stuff that we passed
that quite frankly, would have our founders throwing up in
their mouths.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
All of this stuff needs to come back again.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Let's go back to Civics class, junior high beauty, American Constitution,
checks and balances?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Where's that? Where are these checks and balances nowadays? Again?
Speaker 4 (08:11):
You want to go after you want to go after
the drug guy's fine? Okay, fine, could be me calling
me crazy. I again again, people, You understand the politics
that are involved with this stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yeah, you understand. This is Mexico.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Wait, Mexico's about as corrupt as corrupt could be. The
cartels down there, I think I mean you actually see
the stories. Do you ever take a look at the
horror the things that take place down there? They find
bloody concentration camps type stuff going on. I won't go
(08:50):
to that country, refuse no way. Where do you think
they get their money from there? They have to deal
with cocaine anymore? God willing Trump again, We'll see what happens.
I hope, I hope that he gets the precursors for
(09:13):
fentanyl and these drugs that are shipped.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
From chemical factories in China to these places.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Let's hope that we cut off the supply of those precursors.
That doesn't mean that the bad guys are gonna find
some other way of obtaining them. Who knows? Who knows?
One of the things that is always held true. Okay,
if there's a demand for a certain product, somebody's gonna
find a way to supply it. Somebody's gonna find a
(09:42):
way to supply it. And what's the reality as well? Okay, up, jeez,
the supply, the supply gets small, or guess what, the
price is going to go up again. There's no the
same thing with anything that's illicit, exact same thing, but
you've seen it We've all seen it. We've seen you
(10:04):
know it was there was a Kensington Park in Philadelphia.
People can't even stand up if they're hungover. San Francisco,
all of these places, at some point in time. Can't
allow this on American streets. Okay, can't allow this. This
is this, you know, this.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Is again, this is a liberal mental disorder stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
This is you're somehow, you're somehow being compassionate with allowing
these people to do these drugs in plain sight in
the street.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Round this stuff up.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
You don't see this stuff on the streets in Japan,
you know, you don't see this in other places around
it all. Why does this have to happen here? At
some point in time we have to deal with it.
Do I think blowing up a few boats and the
Caribbean's gonna do much? No, no, no, And it'll make
(10:59):
the make the price of cocaine go up a little bit.
But the people that are doing cocaine can afford to
pay a little bit more for cocaine. So what's the point.
What's the point? Focus on the real problem anyway? Moving on, Okay,
have to talk about this again. This is it's gonna
go down as the greatest scam of all time.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
It really is.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
And you know, people, you should have saw, you know,
we should have seen this coming when Greta Thunberg decided
to move on from climate change to the Palestinian cause.
But Bill Gates, Bill Gates, Bill Gates, just what was
it twenty nineteen, six years ago on air with what's
(11:48):
his name there Zakaria basically saying we gotta put corks
and cows butts. You didn't say that, but he said, eh, yeah,
we gotta, we gotta make we gotta make those cow
emissions go to zero, no more furting than burping cows anymore,
because the planet's gonna die, it's gonna boil.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
He put on an essay, put on an essay this
past week.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
He's that, Yeah, you know, you know that whole climate
change thing, it's not gonna.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
End the world.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
See had a video sent to me. It was from
like nineteen eighty two. Nineteen eighty two. I was Dan
Rather and they're doing this big expose and they showed
a map, showed a map of what Florida was gonna
look like at this point in time. I should be
underwater right now, based upon what the news has been selling,
(12:44):
and they actually had a young al Algore back there
doing the same exact thing that he's doing.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Now, are you you kidding me? Isn't it a coincidence?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
As a matter of fact, because you know that Bill Gates
and these tech guys that we're all in. Is it
kind of a coincidence that now you know they need
so much power, so much power for all of their
their data centers and AI, that they're not as concerned
about all of this energy stuff anymore. One it's gonna
go down without a doubt as one of the biggest
(13:19):
financial scam fraud of all time. Maybe a lot of
people rich, though, man, a lot a lot of connected people,
really really wealthy. I remember, I remember after Obama got elected,
I say, you know, in the greatest again financial crisis,
one of the greatest investments you could have made that
period of time was to just give Obama money.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
To give Obama money and to start up your own
green company.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
And then just go to Obama and say, hey, Bri,
I gave you money for your campaign. You want to
help me fund help me fund my green tech company.
One loser after another, loser after another loser. The whole
carbon thing massive fraud, massive. I remember remember the concert
(14:08):
what here was that concert that Al Gore Live Earth concert.
They tried to they try to replicate live aid. They
try to replicate lot of Live Earth concert different locations
around the globe. And again all the rock stars flying
on private jets to all these various different places.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
And they had a website.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Now Al Gore had a website of Live Earth website
at the time, and I remember we talked.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
About this on a show. It made fun of this
on the show.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Go to the website and you basically it asked you
a whole series of questions about your living conditions, basically,
how how many square feet your house was, the cars
that you drove, a myriad of different things, and then
it proceeded to calculate something and congratulate you. Congratulations. Send out.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Then I'm parafuct Send Al Gore a.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
Check for X amount of dollars or pay this amount
every single month so you could exercise your carbon demons.
People sen Al Gore cash. People sent out Gore cash
(15:24):
because they thought that they were killing the planet with
carbon dioxide. How many times over the here's here on
the show we talk about Hey, kids, remember sixth grade
science with photosynthesis. Why don't you go back and review
that and see how that all works out.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Huh. It was all one big, fat, huge fraud.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
But again you got a lot of these quote end
quote scientists that get funding, grants and a myriad of
different things for the government to have of a certain opinion. Again,
another another science lesson. What is the scientific method? Scientific
method is not proving yourself right, it's proving yourself wrong.
(16:15):
That's what the scientific method was. These are not scientists.
They were there. They were there not trying to prove
their thesis wrong. They were there trying to prove their
thesis right. That doesn't make them a scientist. That makes
them a propagandist. Watchdog on Wallstreet dot com. Watchdog on

listening to the Watchdog on Wall Street with Chris Markowski.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
All right, welcome back, everybody.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Oh yes, talking talking tariffs, and Jay Powell's talking about
tariffs in regards to the CPI and how much it's
adding to the cost of things here in this country,
and without a doubt it has and tariff okay, is
(17:39):
attacks period. The end I saw there was some various
different people pointing out, look at who is General Electric
is kind of brand new We're gonna make an appliances
again here in the United States. I'm like, that's great,
that's great. They couldn't done this all because of the tariffs.
(17:59):
Maybe could be right, how many people they employed, how
many people they employed, how many other people have been
put out of work because of tariffs? Now various different
meetings this past week, and you know, Trump was all
(18:21):
smiles and he seems to be doing pretty well, seems
to be doing pretty well out there. But again, and
this is one thing I don't understand about the guy.
I don't understand why he just can't be just straightforward
and honest when it comes to things again, it's that's
(18:43):
a for me. It's it's like nails on a chalkboard
and it was three D chess man whatever, Okay, three
D chess. You know the idea that He mentioned ages
ago that he was going to get Japan to give
him a half a trillion dollars and he was going
to invest it in whatever he wanted. That's never going
(19:05):
to happen. Now he's there in Japan and they toat oh,
Toyota is going to be building some more factories here
in the United States. Yeah, yeah, good. Toyotas has built
factories here in the United States. Nissan has built factories
here in the United States. Honda has built factories in
the United States. Why wouldn't they build factories here in
(19:25):
the United States, big market here. That's not them giving
Trump money. We're not getting any sort of kickback from that.
It was all a.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Lot of bunk from the get go.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
And I don't quite Frankly, it's hard for me to
get myns because I don't really understand why you need
to do that. I don't understand what the negotiating tactic is.
It's like, you know, you're trying to look good to
the American people. You want to cut a great trade deal,
cut a great trade deal. The meaning with the Z
and again, I've still got to see all the defined
(19:59):
print when it comes to this first and foremost rare
earth minerals. Uh, they're going to continue to flow for
another year. It's gonna be some Obviously, we've talked about
fetanyl and hopefully that's going to be cut back, and
we're going to see where the tariffs end up. The
reality of the situation is you're starting to get blowback
within Congress, getting blow back in the Senate, getting blow
(20:20):
back in Congress because people are starting to recognize the
costs and small businesses are suffering. We'll see what's going
to happen. It hits the Supreme Court next week. Watchdog
on Wallstreet dot com. Watchdog on Wallstreet dot com.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
After. You're listening to the Watchdog on Wall Street taking
(21:00):
Wall Streets liars, crooks and cheets out behind the woodshed.
You're listening to the Watchdog on Wall Street.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
All right, welcome back.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
I guess to the Senate votes I had to do
with the tariffs on Brazil and Canada. And this is
where again Trump doesn't want to obviously have the Supreme
Court rule against him, but he doesn't help his cause.
(21:37):
He doesn't help his cause by getting angry over an
advertisement and then all of a sudden sticking a tariff
on Canada because he's angry with an advertisement that was
run by what was it, the Ontario government?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Here in the.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
United States, because he is justifying first and form, he's
justifying the terriff, which are attacks, and that all has
to go through Congress.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
He's saying it's an emergency. So what's the emergency?
Speaker 4 (22:10):
Canada ran an advertisement here attacking the tariffs that you
don't like. That's an emergency that allows you to circumnavigate
the constitution and tax the American people.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
And quite frankly, it was a dumb move on his part.
And you know the thing that aggravates me as well
is think he can also get all the ridiculous MAGA
influencers that are out there that you know, are paid
to put out various different statements say, oh, man, Reagan
never said that. Listen to the radio address he did
(22:50):
say all that. Did they take pieces of his speech
and put it in different Yeah they did. But if
you think that Reagan was a guy who loved tariffs,
you got.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Another thing coming. He didn't. And I don't know why.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
I don't know why Trump has to come out again.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
I don't get it. Trump was very much for tariffs.
You love terror, blah blah blah. He gets told.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
I'm like, well, you have a different belief system than
Reagan had.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
You can say that.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
Yeah, I come out I respectfully, you know, I think
Reagan was a great president, but I respectfully disagree with
Ronald Reagan on his stance on tariffs.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
You don't have to throw a hissy fit over the
entire thing. You really don't. And again I don't like
tariffs either.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
I just quite frankly, it just hurts your cause, man,
it really does. Anyway, Uh, this story here, the NBA
has a gambling problem. You know, the NBA doesn't have
a gang gamp. Well it does with the two. Gambling
problem is with this country. This country has a gambling problem.
(24:06):
So story and tell me you couldn't see this coming
a mile away with these prop bets, you know. And
the funny thing is, and this is just just how
driven by money this stuff is not not the well
being for the players.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It's all about the bottom line.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
And I guess you know it's going to help the
player's bottom line to some degree. But what as soon
as you allow for people to bet on the performance
of a single player you don't see how dangerous that
is with the bad actors that we have in this world.
(24:50):
I mean, you can talk about the evils of this
world with people that the human traffickers and children and
all of these things. You don't think that you know,
some bad actor, some mafioso type can't pick up the
phone and say, hey, so and so, you're a hell
of a player. Okay, you're supposed to score X amount
(25:11):
of points tonight. I know where your kids live, I
know where your kids go to school. I know your
wife is, I know what a routine is. Guess what
you're gonna have a bad game. I mean, sure NBA
has got security, various different things, but you don't think
that this is enormously dangerous. Again, I'm someone that I
(25:39):
don't gamble, not something I do. I don't like casinos.
None of this stuff is my ball of X. But
if you think that this is good for the sport,
it is good for the country, all these gambling apps
that are out there making it easy for people to
get wrapped up in all of this nonsense, it's not
(26:04):
it's not and it's you know, something that we would
people at some point in time.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Oh you live in a capitalist society. Capitalism doesn't mean.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
That you go to do whatever it takes just to
make money. You have to have some sort of moral
center you do. You have to avoid that temptation to
do what you.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Know is wrong, you know is wrong, and.
Speaker 4 (26:34):
That's again, that is what we're missing in our society.
And our founders knew that. They knew, and I've talked
about this here on the program. You have in order
to have a free society. For capitalism to work properly
in a free society, you need.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
To have a morally grounded people. You have to have.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
People are gonna say, you know, I could do that,
I could make a lot of money on doing that, but.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Is it good for the countries? It's good for my soul? Okay?
Is that something that you know?
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Is that something that you need to think God would want,
really want me to do.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
And people will find ways to justifying things that're like.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Well, look, you do this, we'll make all this money
that I'll donate to this charity, and I'll donate to
that charity.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I'll make it for No.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
No, it's a societal cancer that you've put into place,
and that's what it is. That's what it is. I
don't know how people do it. It's gonna warn people.
Because my son was listening to my podcast. He's like, Darren,
it was a gambling app commercial that popped up on
your podcast. I have no control over any of that stuff. Okay, none,

nothing on. Here's the resume might become. Well, he's got
(30:04):

venues that I've been to. It's in Forest Hills and
Queens and they had they had a communist rally there. Now,
(30:24):
you young people, you gonna understand something I grew up.
You know, you know bomb we had bomb drills hiding
underneath our desks in the nineteen seventies, which I never
seemed to understand. I said, Oh, really, hiding underneath our
desk is going to save us from a nuclear weapon.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I mean I knew that now in entry school. Anyway.
You know Red Dawn Rocky for communism is bad?
Speaker 4 (30:48):
Okay, Uh yeah, it was bad then, it's bad now,
but it's all of age. They had a Communist rally
in New York City and they filled up the Forest
Hills Center and.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
Again, free stuff, universal childcare, no rent, freezes, rents can't
go up, free buses for everyone.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Did DSSA These this, These these guys are communists for
crying out and they canna win in New York.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
I ain't going there. I'm done.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
Don't even ask, don't even ask. I'm not going, not
going to visit. Sorry, Yankees, They're gonna see you on
the road.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Gotta take a break.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Watchdog on Wallstreet dot com, Watchdog Wallstreet dot Com.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
The only man who is taking on the Wall Street establishment.
You're listening to the Watchdog in Wall Street with Chris Markowski.
Speaker 4 (32:09):
Yeah, clocks back when Coldplay was great. I haven't done
much of their new stuff real, yeah, but anyway, hopefully
they get back to their roots. Anyway, welcome back to
the Watchdog on a Wall Street show talking about Ma'm
Donnie in New York. And you know the funny thing is,
(32:30):
this is how wimpy the Republicans are. This is their
response to Mam Dommy House. Republicans want to strip Zorn
Mamdami of citizenship, possibly deport the New York City mayoral
front runner from omissions. I guess on his paperwork. Can
(32:51):
you guys try this stupid crap before with Obama and
his birth certificate? How'd that turn out? You know, the
problem isn't ma'am Dommy. The problem is his ideas are
resonating with people. That's the problem. And we've been talking
about this for a long time. You take a look
(33:14):
at how expensive it is to buy a home here
in this country.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
What's happened, what you've.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
Allowed private equity and the blackstones of the world, all
this crap, the price of food. When people get desperate,
they start listening to people that are promising them things
that I can give you this and I can fix
this problem. And they're saying to themselves, well, yeah, these
other fools have said that they were going to fix
(33:42):
this stuff and they haven't done a damn thing. That's
the problem. The reason why man Dommy is winning is
because everybody else sucks. Courtes Lee what Guardian Angel guy
God bless us soul it?
Speaker 3 (33:57):
Dude.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Come on, man, that's the best republic looking candidate you
can run. You had Juliani turn that city around. It
wasn't that long ago. I lived there. And then Bloomberg
ran as a Republican, but he was very much a
moderate Democrat, great city manager, did wonders.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
For the city.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Then you went nuts left wing with their Doblasio Adams
and now you're going this far left again.
Speaker 3 (34:28):
Whose fault is that?
Speaker 4 (34:31):
It's the fact that you're not serving the people properly,
You're not dealing with problems.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
So your answers were gonna deport the guy. You don't
think just just throwing us out there.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
You don't think that's gonna make him more popular, more
of a an urban hero. The man is trying to
get him. I mean, this is how dumb the Elephant
Party has become. I mean, they're just vapid, that stupid anyway,
speak of socialism, okay, make socialism great.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
Trump has to stop doing this, I'm sorry. Okay.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
He continues continues to shift this country away from our
capitalistic roots. And what do I mean by this? And
I've been talking about this from some time. This again,
I am a free market guy, public private partnerships, government
(35:33):
having a stake in the private country. It is to
me it's it's sacrilegious, it's blasphemous for crying out loud.
We do not need a centrally planned economy. The president
should not be taking taxpayer money to invest in businesses.
Now it's quantum computing. No, No, that's gonna hurt quantum computing.
(35:59):
How is it gonna this is a new technology. Okay,
I will explain everybody out there. Okay, Oh I just
hate Trump. You got Trump de arrangement syndrome. No, I
don't have Trump derangement syndrome. I have socialism derangement syndrome.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Is what I have.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
I give credit for credits due Trump is doing something great.
I gotta let you know. And Trump is doing something great.
You've got a new technology that's out there, got a
new technology that's out there, and oh, we got to
make sure there were the leaders in this. So the
government's going to invest in this company. What if that
company sucks?
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Me? Serious?
Speaker 4 (36:34):
What if that company is no good doesn't have the goods,
and there's somebody else out there that's got a better company.
But that better company guess what is now competing against
Uncle Sam?
Speaker 3 (36:50):
How do you compete against Uncle Sam?
Speaker 4 (36:52):
How do you compete against Uncle Sam, who can print
as much money as they want in fund whatever they
want to whatever.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
Extent that they want. You can't.
Speaker 4 (37:04):
Well, you know, I'll put it this way. Let's let's
go back to the early days of the internet. Go
back to the other what if? What if Bill Clinton
declared back in the late nineteen nineties.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
That the Internet and internet.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Access was a national security concern. The United States needed
to invest in it, and he decided to go all
in on AOL screw you got mail.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
We would still have freaking dial up in this country.
Do you understand?
Speaker 4 (37:37):
We would still have dial up. That's the problem. The
free market does it better one hundred percent of the time.
The government should not be investing in.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
Any of these things. Anyway. Here's I saw this story
today and again I'm just.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Like, who thinks that this is a good idea?
Speaker 3 (38:07):
Remember that movie.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Outbreak that was the Dustin Hoffman Dustin Hoffman and Morgan
Freeman there, Remember the monkey got loose?
Speaker 3 (38:21):
The monkey got but then they also.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
Had to find a monkey to get the cure for
the airborne disease and everybody. These movies became popular again
during COVID. This this actually happened in Mississippi. An aggressive
monkey infected with COVID nineteen and other diseases was on
the loose in Jasper County, Mississippi after a semi truck
(38:45):
carrying twenty nine primates overturned. Yeah, all of these monkeys
were infected with all of these different diseases.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
I'm not kidding you. This is this is like how
horror movies start. Wasn't this the original thing with COVID
back in the day, except in a wet market.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
So you just put a bunch of diseased filled monkeys
on a flatbed truck and you just just.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Let it go. Let it go again. Sometimes you know,
we're just stupid? Is the stupid?
Speaker 4 (39:20):
Does watchdog a Maallstreet dot com? God bless everyone, We'll
see it.
Well, no one altered investment banking, consumer advocate, analyst trader
Chris Markowski is the watchdog on Wall Street.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Do you want to answer exposing the lines and myths
that the big brokerage firms, the mainstream press, and the
government are pushing to keep Americans away from financial freedom.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
You can't handle the truth bringing America the truth about
what really happens in the financial world.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
We're not here to indulge in fantasy, but in political
and economic reality.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
This is the watchdog Wall Streets.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
All right, welcome back, everybody. I have to I'm gonna
address something. I'm gonna be honest you. I can't recall
whether or not I talked about this several weeks ago
here on the radio show. I knew, I know, I
hit it on the hit on the podcast. There's no
doubt about that. You gotta you gotta bear with me.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
People. I'm getting I'm getting a little longer in.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
The tooth, and I do a lot of a lot
of content over the course of the week with this show,
the podcast, and the guest appearances that I have. And
this had to do with this had to do with
blowing up boats in the Caribbean and the war on
drugs I have. I've talked about this for a long
(01:28):
time here on the program, and again it's it's how
our government likes to frame things, like the media like
to frame things. Everything is a war, war on poverty,
war on crime, war on drugs, war on.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Terror, war, war, war, war, war.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
We're we're in a pretty much here in the United States,
a perpetual state of war. That's that's how we are
addressed here in this country. It's fascinating because again, in
other places that I go to around the globe, they
don't they don't do that. Maybe I don't know, I
can't remember exactly what I said. I did get, you know,
(02:10):
several emails from people. Maybe I was being a bit
flippant when it came to the boats being blown up
in the Caribbean by the the US Navy, and and
I said, you know, I said, America really doesn't give
a darn about this right now. It's not a big
story to most Americans. So what's really important to Americans
(02:33):
is inflation, and you know, all of these things that
are affecting their pocketbooks and the layoffs and all this
other stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
And you got actually got a couple messages.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
And you know, sometimes when I get these messages, I said,
maybe I didn't frame something the right way, and I
kind of I do. I take things to heart. I
want to be perfectly clear here on the program. These
messages had to do with the fact that Chris, you know,
you know, I know more people, want to paraphrase, I
know more people that died you know, drug abuse over
(03:05):
the years than COVID. And you know, more Americans have
died due to opiate opiate abuse than in all of
our wars combined. And again I I know this because
we've talked about it here.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
On the program.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
We've talked about this for years here on the program. Now,
the boats, okay, the boats that are being blown up
in the Caribbean.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Listen, people, they're not carrying fannyl. They're not.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Okay, drug dealers, they're not stupid. Okay, they're not okay,
these cartel guys, they're not dumb. What's coming from that
area of the world. Colombia, Bolivia, maybe Venezuela. Maybe it's
not Venezuela. That's cocaine, man, that's cocaine. I mean, this
(04:09):
is part of the whole plate line of breaking bad
with crystal meth and the fact that they were thrilled
with crystal meth because guess what, they didn't need to
move the actual cocoa leaves from Venezuela, I mean from
Colombia all the way and refine it, do all that
(04:29):
stuff that you could.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
It was crystal meth, you could just do it right there.
It doesn't come there. Comes from Mexico, man, it comes
from Mexico.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
And you can take a look at the size, the
square footage of an area that it takes to produce
this illicit fentanyl. It's small. There's no business reason for
it to be done that. It doesn't make any sense.
It would drive the cost up of your product. Again,
as far as they build this models concerned, they're not
(05:01):
going to do that. What has gotten I mentioned this
here on the show. What has come back here in
the United States is cocaine. Cocaine is now a It's
now a hot drug once again.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
It is. And let's you know, be honest people.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Okay, you know I worked on Wall Street, Okay back
in the day, and let me tell you something. Yeah,
without doubt, saw my fair share of people doing cocaine.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I saw my fair share of people that got.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Addicted to cocaine and needed help because of cocaine. It's
like that Dave Chappelle skit there with Rick James. Cocaine
a hell of a drug. Yeah, can do un godly harm.
But at the height, at the height of the crack epidemic,
cocaine epidemic in this country was ten thousand deaths a year.
(05:59):
It's not nothing, Okay, it's not, but that was at
the height fentanyl, crank, these other things. That's what's been
doing the killing. And you know what's led that on. Okay,
bloody oxy cotton and the Sackler family who are billionaires
(06:20):
walking the streets.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Of this country.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Do I think what the administration is doing? Do I
think it's a bit of a show right now?
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Yeah? I do. I do convince me otherwise. Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
And you know, I know people make fun of Rand
Paul and you know again, I'm a huge Rand Paul fan,
huge Thomas Massey fan. I believe in the rule of law.
I believe in the United States Constitution. But Trump Trump
declared he declared the drug cartells as terrorist organizations, which
(06:59):
means what it falls under the authorization for use of
military force again effective September eighteen, two thousand and one,
under George W. Bush, which has basically given an enormous
amount of power to the President of the United States
to do whatever they want to do when it comes
(07:22):
to terrorism, attack whatever they want. If it's a terrorist
organization they see fit, they can do it. Oh sure,
it limits it. They can't use nukes for crying out loud,
but they can go nuts. And I'm sorry people, you
go back to Post nine to eleven and all of
(07:42):
the garbage Patriarch, all of the stuff that we passed
that quite frankly, would have our founders throwing up in
their mouths.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
All of this stuff needs to come back again.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Let's go back to Civics class, junior high beauty, American Constitution,
checks and balances?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Where's that? Where are these checks and balances nowadays? Again?
Speaker 4 (08:11):
You want to go after you want to go after
the drug guy's fine? Okay, fine, could be me calling
me crazy. I again again, people, You understand the politics
that are involved with this stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yeah, you understand. This is Mexico.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Wait, Mexico's about as corrupt as corrupt could be. The
cartels down there, I think I mean you actually see
the stories. Do you ever take a look at the
horror the things that take place down there? They find
bloody concentration camps type stuff going on. I won't go
(08:50):
to that country, refuse no way. Where do you think
they get their money from there? They have to deal
with cocaine anymore? God willing Trump again, We'll see what happens.
I hope, I hope that he gets the precursors for
(09:13):
fentanyl and these drugs that are shipped.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
From chemical factories in China to these places.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Let's hope that we cut off the supply of those precursors.
That doesn't mean that the bad guys are gonna find
some other way of obtaining them. Who knows? Who knows?
One of the things that is always held true. Okay,
if there's a demand for a certain product, somebody's gonna
find a way to supply it. Somebody's gonna find a
(09:42):
way to supply it. And what's the reality as well? Okay, up, jeez,
the supply, the supply gets small, or guess what, the
price is going to go up again. There's no the
same thing with anything that's illicit, exact same thing, but
you've seen it We've all seen it. We've seen you
(10:04):
know it was there was a Kensington Park in Philadelphia.
People can't even stand up if they're hungover. San Francisco,
all of these places, at some point in time. Can't
allow this on American streets. Okay, can't allow this. This
is this, you know, this.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Is again, this is a liberal mental disorder stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
This is you're somehow, you're somehow being compassionate with allowing
these people to do these drugs in plain sight in
the street.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Round this stuff up.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
You don't see this stuff on the streets in Japan,
you know, you don't see this in other places around
it all. Why does this have to happen here? At
some point in time we have to deal with it.
Do I think blowing up a few boats and the
Caribbean's gonna do much? No, no, no, And it'll make
(10:59):
the make the price of cocaine go up a little bit.
But the people that are doing cocaine can afford to
pay a little bit more for cocaine. So what's the point.
What's the point? Focus on the real problem anyway? Moving on, Okay,
have to talk about this again. This is it's gonna
go down as the greatest scam of all time.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
It really is.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
And you know, people, you should have saw, you know,
we should have seen this coming when Greta Thunberg decided
to move on from climate change to the Palestinian cause.
But Bill Gates, Bill Gates, Bill Gates, just what was
it twenty nineteen, six years ago on air with what's
(11:48):
his name there Zakaria basically saying we gotta put corks
and cows butts. You didn't say that, but he said, eh, yeah,
we gotta, we gotta make we gotta make those cow
emissions go to zero, no more furting than burping cows anymore,
because the planet's gonna die, it's gonna boil.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
He put on an essay, put on an essay this
past week.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
He's that, Yeah, you know, you know that whole climate
change thing, it's not gonna.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
End the world.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
See had a video sent to me. It was from
like nineteen eighty two. Nineteen eighty two. I was Dan
Rather and they're doing this big expose and they showed
a map, showed a map of what Florida was gonna
look like at this point in time. I should be
underwater right now, based upon what the news has been selling,
(12:44):
and they actually had a young al Algore back there
doing the same exact thing that he's doing.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Now, are you you kidding me? Isn't it a coincidence?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
As a matter of fact, because you know that Bill Gates
and these tech guys that we're all in. Is it
kind of a coincidence that now you know they need
so much power, so much power for all of their
their data centers and AI, that they're not as concerned
about all of this energy stuff anymore. One it's gonna
go down without a doubt as one of the biggest
(13:19):
financial scam fraud of all time. Maybe a lot of
people rich, though, man, a lot a lot of connected people,
really really wealthy. I remember, I remember after Obama got elected,
I say, you know, in the greatest again financial crisis,
one of the greatest investments you could have made that
period of time was to just give Obama money.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
To give Obama money and to start up your own
green company.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
And then just go to Obama and say, hey, Bri,
I gave you money for your campaign. You want to
help me fund help me fund my green tech company.
One loser after another, loser after another loser. The whole
carbon thing massive fraud, massive. I remember remember the concert
(14:08):
what here was that concert that Al Gore Live Earth concert.
They tried to they try to replicate live aid. They
try to replicate lot of Live Earth concert different locations
around the globe. And again all the rock stars flying
on private jets to all these various different places.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
And they had a website.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
Now Al Gore had a website of Live Earth website
at the time, and I remember we talked.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
About this on a show. It made fun of this
on the show.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Go to the website and you basically it asked you
a whole series of questions about your living conditions, basically,
how how many square feet your house was, the cars
that you drove, a myriad of different things, and then
it proceeded to calculate something and congratulate you. Congratulations. Send out.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Then I'm parafuct Send Al Gore a.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
Check for X amount of dollars or pay this amount
every single month so you could exercise your carbon demons.
People sen Al Gore cash. People sent out Gore cash
(15:24):
because they thought that they were killing the planet with
carbon dioxide. How many times over the here's here on
the show we talk about Hey, kids, remember sixth grade
science with photosynthesis. Why don't you go back and review
that and see how that all works out.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
Huh. It was all one big, fat, huge fraud.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
But again you got a lot of these quote end
quote scientists that get funding, grants and a myriad of
different things for the government to have of a certain opinion. Again,
another another science lesson. What is the scientific method? Scientific
method is not proving yourself right, it's proving yourself wrong.
(16:15):
That's what the scientific method was. These are not scientists.
They were there. They were there not trying to prove
their thesis wrong. They were there trying to prove their
thesis right. That doesn't make them a scientist. That makes
them a propagandist. Watchdog on Wallstreet dot com. Watchdog on

listening to the Watchdog on Wall Street with Chris Markowski.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
All right, welcome back, everybody.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Oh yes, talking talking tariffs, and Jay Powell's talking about
tariffs in regards to the CPI and how much it's
adding to the cost of things here in this country,
and without a doubt it has and tariff okay, is
(17:39):
attacks period. The end I saw there was some various
different people pointing out, look at who is General Electric
is kind of brand new We're gonna make an appliances
again here in the United States. I'm like, that's great,
that's great. They couldn't done this all because of the tariffs.
(17:59):
Maybe could be right, how many people they employed, how
many people they employed, how many other people have been
put out of work because of tariffs? Now various different
meetings this past week, and you know, Trump was all
(18:21):
smiles and he seems to be doing pretty well, seems
to be doing pretty well out there. But again, and
this is one thing I don't understand about the guy.
I don't understand why he just can't be just straightforward
and honest when it comes to things again, it's that's
(18:43):
a for me. It's it's like nails on a chalkboard
and it was three D chess man whatever, Okay, three
D chess. You know the idea that He mentioned ages
ago that he was going to get Japan to give
him a half a trillion dollars and he was going
to invest it in whatever he wanted. That's never going
(19:05):
to happen. Now he's there in Japan and they toat oh,
Toyota is going to be building some more factories here
in the United States. Yeah, yeah, good. Toyotas has built
factories here in the United States. Nissan has built factories
here in the United States. Honda has built factories in
the United States. Why wouldn't they build factories here in
(19:25):
the United States, big market here. That's not them giving
Trump money. We're not getting any sort of kickback from that.
It was all a.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Lot of bunk from the get go.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
And I don't quite Frankly, it's hard for me to
get myns because I don't really understand why you need
to do that. I don't understand what the negotiating tactic is.
It's like, you know, you're trying to look good to
the American people. You want to cut a great trade deal,
cut a great trade deal. The meaning with the Z
and again, I've still got to see all the defined
(19:59):
print when it comes to this first and foremost rare
earth minerals. Uh, they're going to continue to flow for
another year. It's gonna be some Obviously, we've talked about
fetanyl and hopefully that's going to be cut back, and
we're going to see where the tariffs end up. The
reality of the situation is you're starting to get blowback
within Congress, getting blow back in the Senate, getting blow
(20:20):
back in Congress because people are starting to recognize the
costs and small businesses are suffering. We'll see what's going
to happen. It hits the Supreme Court next week. Watchdog
on Wallstreet dot com. Watchdog on Wallstreet dot com.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
After. You're listening to the Watchdog on Wall Street taking
(21:00):
Wall Streets liars, crooks and cheets out behind the woodshed.
You're listening to the Watchdog on Wall Street.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
All right, welcome back.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
I guess to the Senate votes I had to do
with the tariffs on Brazil and Canada. And this is
where again Trump doesn't want to obviously have the Supreme
Court rule against him, but he doesn't help his cause.
(21:37):
He doesn't help his cause by getting angry over an
advertisement and then all of a sudden sticking a tariff
on Canada because he's angry with an advertisement that was
run by what was it, the Ontario government?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Here in the.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
United States, because he is justifying first and form, he's
justifying the terriff, which are attacks, and that all has
to go through Congress.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
He's saying it's an emergency. So what's the emergency?
Speaker 4 (22:10):
Canada ran an advertisement here attacking the tariffs that you
don't like. That's an emergency that allows you to circumnavigate
the constitution and tax the American people.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
And quite frankly, it was a dumb move on his part.
And you know the thing that aggravates me as well
is think he can also get all the ridiculous MAGA
influencers that are out there that you know, are paid
to put out various different statements say, oh, man, Reagan
never said that. Listen to the radio address he did
(22:50):
say all that. Did they take pieces of his speech
and put it in different Yeah they did. But if
you think that Reagan was a guy who loved tariffs,
you got.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Another thing coming. He didn't. And I don't know why.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
I don't know why Trump has to come out again.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
I don't get it. Trump was very much for tariffs.
You love terror, blah blah blah. He gets told.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
I'm like, well, you have a different belief system than
Reagan had.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
You can say that.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
Yeah, I come out I respectfully, you know, I think
Reagan was a great president, but I respectfully disagree with
Ronald Reagan on his stance on tariffs.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
You don't have to throw a hissy fit over the
entire thing. You really don't. And again I don't like
tariffs either.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
I just quite frankly, it just hurts your cause, man,
it really does. Anyway, Uh, this story here, the NBA
has a gambling problem. You know, the NBA doesn't have
a gang gamp. Well it does with the two. Gambling
problem is with this country. This country has a gambling problem.
(24:06):
So story and tell me you couldn't see this coming
a mile away with these prop bets, you know. And
the funny thing is, and this is just just how
driven by money this stuff is not not the well
being for the players.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It's all about the bottom line.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
And I guess you know it's going to help the
player's bottom line to some degree. But what as soon
as you allow for people to bet on the performance
of a single player you don't see how dangerous that
is with the bad actors that we have in this world.
(24:50):
I mean, you can talk about the evils of this
world with people that the human traffickers and children and
all of these things. You don't think that you know,
some bad actor, some mafioso type can't pick up the
phone and say, hey, so and so, you're a hell
of a player. Okay, you're supposed to score X amount
(25:11):
of points tonight. I know where your kids live, I
know where your kids go to school. I know your
wife is, I know what a routine is. Guess what
you're gonna have a bad game. I mean, sure NBA
has got security, various different things, but you don't think
that this is enormously dangerous. Again, I'm someone that I
(25:39):
don't gamble, not something I do. I don't like casinos.
None of this stuff is my ball of X. But
if you think that this is good for the sport,
it is good for the country, all these gambling apps
that are out there making it easy for people to
get wrapped up in all of this nonsense, it's not
(26:04):
it's not and it's you know, something that we would
people at some point in time.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Oh you live in a capitalist society. Capitalism doesn't mean.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
That you go to do whatever it takes just to
make money. You have to have some sort of moral
center you do. You have to avoid that temptation to
do what you.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Know is wrong, you know is wrong, and.
Speaker 4 (26:34):
That's again, that is what we're missing in our society.
And our founders knew that. They knew, and I've talked
about this here on the program. You have in order
to have a free society. For capitalism to work properly
in a free society, you need.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
To have a morally grounded people. You have to have.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
People are gonna say, you know, I could do that,
I could make a lot of money on doing that, but.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Is it good for the countries? It's good for my soul? Okay?
Is that something that you know?
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Is that something that you need to think God would want,
really want me to do.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
And people will find ways to justifying things that're like.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Well, look, you do this, we'll make all this money
that I'll donate to this charity, and I'll donate to
that charity.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I'll make it for No.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
No, it's a societal cancer that you've put into place,
and that's what it is. That's what it is. I
don't know how people do it. It's gonna warn people.
Because my son was listening to my podcast. He's like, Darren,
it was a gambling app commercial that popped up on
your podcast. I have no control over any of that stuff. Okay, none,
(27:45):

dollars zero on advertise. I won't take a dime, I
won't take a time, make nothing, gotta take a Watchdog

Welcome back.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
So uh, yeah, it's a it's election week, selection week,
yeah can.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
Uh? And I people get upset with me when I
say this.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
I don't care. I'm gonna comment on certain things. I mean,
would it be great? Would it be great to see? Uh?
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Did Rally win in New Jersey? Short? Would it be great?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Great to see, in my opinion, to see maybe some
Republicans win in state of Virginia.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
Sure, I think it's gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
No, No, I don't, but everybody, but it's too it
must it's must.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
See TV in New York City.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
Zoron Mom, Donnie. Yeah, you gotta think about the country
that we live in. That a guy that has done nothing, nothing,
he has no resume, he's got no CV, he has
nothing on. Here's the resume might become. Well, he's got
(30:04):
it looks like he's going to become the mayor of
New York. And you know, if you saw last week,
my jaw dropped. It's actually one of the cooler concert
venues that I've been to. It's in Forest Hills and
Queens and they had they had a communist rally there. Now,
(30:24):
you young people, you gonna understand something I grew up.
You know, you know bomb we had bomb drills hiding
underneath our desks in the nineteen seventies, which I never
seemed to understand. I said, Oh, really, hiding underneath our
desk is going to save us from a nuclear weapon.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I mean I knew that now in entry school. Anyway.
You know Red Dawn Rocky for communism is bad?
Speaker 4 (30:48):
Okay, Uh yeah, it was bad then, it's bad now,
but it's all of age. They had a Communist rally
in New York City and they filled up the Forest
Hills Center and.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
Again, free stuff, universal childcare, no rent, freezes, rents can't
go up, free buses for everyone.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Did DSSA These this, These these guys are communists for
crying out and they canna win in New York.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
I ain't going there. I'm done.
Speaker 4 (31:33):
Don't even ask, don't even ask. I'm not going, not
going to visit. Sorry, Yankees, They're gonna see you on
the road.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Gotta take a break.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Watchdog on Wallstreet dot com, Watchdog Wallstreet dot Com.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
The only man who is taking on the Wall Street establishment.
You're listening to the Watchdog in Wall Street with Chris Markowski.
Speaker 4 (32:09):
Yeah, clocks back when Coldplay was great. I haven't done
much of their new stuff real, yeah, but anyway, hopefully
they get back to their roots. Anyway, welcome back to
the Watchdog on a Wall Street show talking about Ma'm
Donnie in New York. And you know the funny thing is,
(32:30):
this is how wimpy the Republicans are. This is their
response to Mam Dommy House. Republicans want to strip Zorn
Mamdami of citizenship, possibly deport the New York City mayoral
front runner from omissions. I guess on his paperwork. Can
(32:51):
you guys try this stupid crap before with Obama and
his birth certificate? How'd that turn out? You know, the
problem isn't ma'am Dommy. The problem is his ideas are
resonating with people. That's the problem. And we've been talking
about this for a long time. You take a look
(33:14):
at how expensive it is to buy a home here
in this country.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
What's happened, what you've.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
Allowed private equity and the blackstones of the world, all
this crap, the price of food. When people get desperate,
they start listening to people that are promising them things
that I can give you this and I can fix
this problem. And they're saying to themselves, well, yeah, these
other fools have said that they were going to fix
(33:42):
this stuff and they haven't done a damn thing. That's
the problem. The reason why man Dommy is winning is
because everybody else sucks. Courtes Lee what Guardian Angel guy
God bless us soul it?
Speaker 3 (33:57):
Dude.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Come on, man, that's the best republic looking candidate you
can run. You had Juliani turn that city around. It
wasn't that long ago. I lived there. And then Bloomberg
ran as a Republican, but he was very much a
moderate Democrat, great city manager, did wonders.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
For the city.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Then you went nuts left wing with their Doblasio Adams
and now you're going this far left again.
Speaker 3 (34:28):
Whose fault is that?
Speaker 4 (34:31):
It's the fact that you're not serving the people properly,
You're not dealing with problems.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
So your answers were gonna deport the guy. You don't
think just just throwing us out there.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
You don't think that's gonna make him more popular, more
of a an urban hero. The man is trying to
get him. I mean, this is how dumb the Elephant
Party has become. I mean, they're just vapid, that stupid anyway,
speak of socialism, okay, make socialism great.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
Trump has to stop doing this, I'm sorry. Okay.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
He continues continues to shift this country away from our
capitalistic roots. And what do I mean by this? And
I've been talking about this from some time. This again,
I am a free market guy, public private partnerships, government
(35:33):
having a stake in the private country. It is to
me it's it's sacrilegious, it's blasphemous for crying out loud.
We do not need a centrally planned economy. The president
should not be taking taxpayer money to invest in businesses.
Now it's quantum computing. No, No, that's gonna hurt quantum computing.
(35:59):
How is it gonna this is a new technology. Okay,
I will explain everybody out there. Okay, Oh I just
hate Trump. You got Trump de arrangement syndrome. No, I
don't have Trump derangement syndrome. I have socialism derangement syndrome.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Is what I have.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
I give credit for credits due Trump is doing something great.
I gotta let you know. And Trump is doing something great.
You've got a new technology that's out there, got a
new technology that's out there, and oh, we got to
make sure there were the leaders in this. So the
government's going to invest in this company. What if that
company sucks?
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Me? Serious?
Speaker 4 (36:34):
What if that company is no good doesn't have the goods,
and there's somebody else out there that's got a better company.
But that better company guess what is now competing against
Uncle Sam?
Speaker 3 (36:50):
How do you compete against Uncle Sam?
Speaker 4 (36:52):
How do you compete against Uncle Sam, who can print
as much money as they want in fund whatever they
want to whatever.
Speaker 3 (37:00):
Extent that they want. You can't.
Speaker 4 (37:04):
Well, you know, I'll put it this way. Let's let's
go back to the early days of the internet. Go
back to the other what if? What if Bill Clinton
declared back in the late nineteen nineties.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
That the Internet and internet.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Access was a national security concern. The United States needed
to invest in it, and he decided to go all
in on AOL screw you got mail.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
We would still have freaking dial up in this country.
Do you understand?
Speaker 4 (37:37):
We would still have dial up. That's the problem. The
free market does it better one hundred percent of the time.
The government should not be investing in.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
Any of these things. Anyway. Here's I saw this story
today and again I'm just.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Like, who thinks that this is a good idea?
Speaker 3 (38:07):
Remember that movie.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Outbreak that was the Dustin Hoffman Dustin Hoffman and Morgan
Freeman there, Remember the monkey got loose?
Speaker 3 (38:21):
The monkey got but then they also.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
Had to find a monkey to get the cure for
the airborne disease and everybody. These movies became popular again
during COVID. This this actually happened in Mississippi. An aggressive
monkey infected with COVID nineteen and other diseases was on
the loose in Jasper County, Mississippi after a semi truck
(38:45):
carrying twenty nine primates overturned. Yeah, all of these monkeys
were infected with all of these different diseases.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
I'm not kidding you. This is this is like how
horror movies start. Wasn't this the original thing with COVID
back in the day, except in a wet market.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
So you just put a bunch of diseased filled monkeys
on a flatbed truck and you just just.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Let it go. Let it go again. Sometimes you know,
we're just stupid? Is the stupid?
Speaker 4 (39:20):
Does watchdog a Maallstreet dot com? God bless everyone, We'll
see it.
