Poll Shock: 51% of Millennials and Gen Z Favor Socialist White House · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: The majority of likely voters under the age of forty
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: say they want to see Democratic socialists when not the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: next local election, when the next presidential election. I have
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: warned about this for a long time that if you
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: want to change an entire generation, the way that you
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: do it is actually pretty easy. You just go after
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: the youngest generation. When you go after the youngest generation,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: this is what actually ends up happening. You end up
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: going after and changing the hearts and minds of one
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: generation that can change the entire future of a country,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: of a nation. A majority now of likely voters under
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: the age of forty, and think about where the forty
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: year olds have been. They've been in doctrinating in our
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: colleges and doctrinating in our public schools and our high
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: schools and our middle schools. It's a lot of schools
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: that democrats completely own. We know about the anti Semitism
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: on college campuses. We know about the anti conservative, anti
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: ffe family, anti traditional values, anti Jewish in general. But
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: this is part of the reason why you see countries
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: like China flooding our public universities with money, literally billions
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: and billions and billions of dollars. Why are so many
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: foreign nations, our adversaries funding our colleges so that they
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: can turn Americans against our democracy. I've been warning about
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: this and telling you that the Democratic Party and the
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Socialists and the communist and Marxists have been playing the
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: long game. Now they're seeing the fruits of their labor
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: pay off. They've got Mundani in New York. They just
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: elected another socialist in another major city, what a week ago,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: And now you have the majority of likely voters.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Now likely means people that are actually going to vote.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: So early on you may say, well, Ben like they
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: are right, they're pulling pep one or forty. How many
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: they're Mexal going to vote? Well, this is the reason
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: why this poll is really concerning. It is of likely
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: voters under the age of forty say they want to
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: see a quote democratic socialist.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: What does that mean? That means a socialist. Okay, it's
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: a socialist.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: When the next presidential election, and this is coming from
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: a legitimate poll ras Mussen polling, this should terrify every
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: one of you listening to me. The survey asked respondents
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: likely voters under the age of forty, quote, the next
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: presidential election is in twenty twenty eight, would you like
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: to see a democratic socialist can win? Not just be
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: on the ballot, but when, okay, when the twenty twenty
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: eight presidential election.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Across the board, fifty one percent.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Said yes that they would like to see a Democratic
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: socialist win the twenty eight presidential election. Only thirty two
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: percent of those forty and under said no, seventeen percent.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: This is also very concerning, remain quote unquote unsure. Now predictably,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: opinions are sharply divided on party lines. That's good news.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Eighty two percent of demoictocrats under forty said they would
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: like to see a Democratic socialist win the twenty twenty
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: eight presidential election. So I've been warning and saying this
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: for years. The Democratic Party is dead. The Democratic Party
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: is masquer rating as a Democratic Party, when really it's
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: filled with socialists, Communists, and Marxists. The socialists, the communists,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: and the Marxists have taken over the Democratic Party. They
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: understood that the American people weren't ready to just straight
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: up say yeah, I'm a socialist. Voters weren't at a
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: point where they were ready to say yeah, I'm a socialist,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: or yes, I'm a communist. Or yes, I'm a Marxist.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: So they lie and they say they're still democrats. We
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: all know that's not true. They are not democrats, and
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the polling now clearly shows that now in certain areas
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: of the country, you don't have to lie anymore. New
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: York City is a great example of this. Now they
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: still use the word democrat, right, because then it softens
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: what they actually are. Is Mandani a democrat or a socialist?
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: He's a socialist? Is he a democratic socialist? No, that's
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: a way to blend the two together, so it doesn't
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: seem as harsh. Okay, it's like saying, you know, bless
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: their heart before you then rip somebody a new one.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: It's it's, you know, God, bless them, but that person's
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: an idiot. It's a way to just chill out and
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: kind of soften the blow of just straight up socialism.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: You look at these numbers.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Eighty two percent of Democrats under the age of forty
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: say that they are in favor of not just a socialist,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: but want them to win the presidential election. That is
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: a number that's going to rise. It will not go down,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: it's going to go up. Now, how did we get
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: here This is all about making people believe first and
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: foremost of America is somehow not a great country, that
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: somehow America is evil, that somehow America like stole something
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: from somebody, and that the system is rigged. This is
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: class warfare, where the rich get richer and the poor poor,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: and therefore you should be against you know, people making
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: great money and incredible success in America. You turn anyone
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: that's successful into a person, and that's why you get
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: to where we are right now. Now, let's talk about
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: the Republican side of this. Sixty five percent of Republicans
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: under forty said they do not want to see that,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: compared to twenty four percent who actually do an eleven
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: percent who remain quote unquote unsure. Okay, that scares me
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: more than the Democratic side, because what that means is
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: is that the plan to indoctrinate conservative kids on college
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: campuses has had an effect. They may come out and say, hey,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not a liberal Democrat, all right, but I'm not
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: a hardcore gop MAGA conservative either. And if you have
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: twenty four percent of those under the age of forty
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: who identify as a Republican who say they're in favor
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: of having a Democratic socialist win the twenty twenty eight
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: presidential election, an eleven percent that remain unsure and only
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: forty percent excuse me only a rephrase it, only sixty
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: five percent of Republicans under forty say they do not
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: want to see a socialist in the White House in
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight. That should scare you. Now I'm going
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: to break it down even further. Why if you are
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a Republican and you're under forty and twenty four percent
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: of Republicans say they're fine with a Democratic socialist winning
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the White House, what that really means is they're probably
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: not going to vote for a Republican candidate. They're probably
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: going to vote for a Democrat. As this voting block
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: gets older and it's and gets the older voting block
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: gets more participation you have on election day. There has
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: been a lot of conservatives for years, and I warned
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: about this on the Bush campaign back in two thousand
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: and four. There was this thing called MTV Voter Die
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Rock the Vote. You had John Kerry that was really
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: using celebrities and young people to win the election and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: to try to give him the victory there, and it
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: was concerning for us, but there were some that diskind
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: of like, look, young people don't vote. I'm not worried
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: about it, so we don't have to worry about this
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: rock to vote.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: They're going to vote.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: The ones that do vote are going to vote three
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: to one liberal over conservative. We know that, but there's
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: not enough of them to really make a difference now.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: And here's what I'm saying that is changing and changing quickly.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: It also tells you about a real trend by Democrats,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: by the socialists, Communists and Marxists to recruit young minds,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: and they're changing those minds. What's also interesting is independent
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: voters are usually the way of the presidency goes right.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: So if they feel like the countries on the right track,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: independent voters will usually stick with you. And if the
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: majority of Americans or i should say independence, believe that
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: the economy is stagnant, or they're not being listened to,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: or prices are getting too high, there's a long list
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: of different things, they will usually independence will go the
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: opposite of the.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: Party that is in power. Well, let me tell you.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Where independence are in this breakdown, Independents are pre divided.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Thirty seven percent say they would like a democratic, Socialist
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: to win the twenty eight presidential election, followed by thirty
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: two percent who remain unsure and thirty one percent who
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: said no.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: What is the takeaway from that?
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: What worries me is we just had Donald Trump win
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: a presidential election, and the majority of people under the
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: age of forty are now saying we don't even want
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: a Democrat, right, which is normally what it is that
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: you would say you'd want to go to if you
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: don't like the guy that's currently in office that is
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: a Republican, you'd be like, oh, I want a Democrat.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: No.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: No, they're saying, we'd like to skip over that. We
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: don't care about democrats. We want a socialist. Among democrats
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: that are independents, they're saying the same thing. Now, let's
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: talk about influence. Asked who has influenced them the most
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: to support democratic socialism, which is socialism, over a quarter
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: of respond it's twenty seven percent said something that scares
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: me even more. They said it was quote a parent.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: So twenty seven percent of under forty you say, why
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: are you supporting a democratic socialis states coming from their parents?
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: What does that mean? It means that this is also
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: paying dividends in this country with a grand divide over
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: what we see is the best path for our future.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of parents who are lazy, who
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: want government handout and government cheese and government everything to
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: take care of all their problems, and they're indoctrining their
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: kids to believe the same thing. That should concern you
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: even more than any of the other data I've given
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: you so far tonight. That also that twenty seven percent
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: of response said it was a parent who.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Inspired them to be a socialist.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Seventeen percent said online videos or podcasts are why they
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: are now democratic socialists, ten percent said it was books,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: and seven percent who said a grandparent. So what are
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: we learning from that? Democrats doing a better job controlling
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: the classrooms. They're doing a better job of controlling the
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: algorithms and what you see online. They're doing a better
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: job of getting this out on podcasts. In other words,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: they're doing a better job of going to where the
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: under forty crowd is to then indoctrinate them to believe
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: that capitalism is a good thing and capitalism is somehow evil.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: They're doing a better job of saying to these individuals
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: that are forty and under that you need a government
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: to be your baby's daddy.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: You need the government to be your parent.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: You want to know how insignificant digital news publications and
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: print publications like magazines and newspapers have become. Only six
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: percent of respondents attributed their support for socialism to print
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: or digital news publications, five percent even lower for television shows,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: five percent to a church leader, and four percent to
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: a teacher in college or high school. So democrats have
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: done a great job and socialists and communists and Marxists
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: of finding the under forty crowd where they are. It's
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: clearly not in church, it's not necessarily in higher education.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: It is in the schools below that, and it is
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: on social media online, videos, podcasts, And then the most
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: influential where they're getting it from is the parents of
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: the under forty crowd, who they say are socialists. Twenty
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: seven percent of those saying they want to be a
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: socialist leader because of their parents. Now, plurality of Democrats
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: and Republicans who support Democrats socialism also attribute the influence
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: not only to their parents. The highest percentage of independence
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: eighteen percent, said it was books. Voters that read a
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: little bit more, they may seek a little more information
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: or knowledge before they quote make a decision. Now you
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: may ask yourself this question, Well, was this a bad poll?
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I will tell you based on the polling data, it's not.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: The survey was about fifteen hundred US likely voters between
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: the ages of eighteen and thirty nine and was conducted
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: October thirty first and remember the second and as a
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: margin of era plus or mist three percent.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: The survey follows the rise of Muslim socialists. Mundani, the mayor.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Elect of New York City, who has pushed radical ideas,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: including city owned grocery stores, on the people there. He's
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: also suggested that mental health experts should respond to crimes
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: rather than police. In fact, he's been in favor of
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: abolishing the police. This also comes as democratic infighting has
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: become more prominent, where Democrats are not okay with their
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: leaders Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and they want socialists,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: they want communists, they want Marxist to lead their party.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: So this is a massive fight that we are witnessing
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: right now. It is a fight that is one that
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: we should all be concerned and it's one where we're
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: gonna have to decide at some point when are we
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: going to start fighting for the hearts and minds of
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: young people. We used to dismiss them. We have dismissed
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: them for way too long. When you don't give them attention,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: when you don't talk to the younger generation, they grow up,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: they become voters, and those voters can destroy everything you built.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: You have to understand, this is just what ten months,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: eleven months removed, twelve months removed from people voting for
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump, basically a year now since election day. It
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: has been eleven months since he was sworn into office.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: And now this red wave of socialists and communism are
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: coming at us at a rate.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: I've been saying it.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: I warned you over and over and over and over again.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: This was coming, this was happening, It was real, It
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: is significant, and we are witnessing it right here. And
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: it is something that I mean this when I say this,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Wake up, pay attention. You better start fighting to protect
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: your kids in public schools, in private schools. You better
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: start having conversations about what they're learning at college, if
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: you're paying for it, if they're living under your roof,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: you better get involved. Because the Democratic Party is coming
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: after the hearts and the minds of Democrats let me
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: just say that one more time, because I think it's important.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: The Democratic Party is coming after the hearts and the
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: minds of young people and they're playing the game to
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: win long term. Did you see that gold just hit
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: an all time new high of over four thousand dollars
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: an ounce?
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: And if you hear that and you're like, are you
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: kidding me?
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: And you're thinking, gosh, I missed my opportunity, Well, I
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: don't know if you missed your opportunity, but my friends
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: at Kurt Elliott Precious Medals they can answer that question
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: for you.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: You also may not be.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Paying attention to the incredible gains with silver that are
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: happening right now as well, And that's why I trust
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: the guidance of the team at kirk Elliott. In fact,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I literally just got a hundred ounce bar of silver
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: the other day. And the reason why is because after
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I talked to the team at kirk Elliott Precious Medals,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: they let me understand exactly where I could have a
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: big upside in investing in silver.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: The other part that I love about them is this
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: they have transparent pricing. There are a lot of gold
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: companies that you'll hear about if you listen to talk
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: radio or podcasts or watched, but do they tell you
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: how the pricing actually works well. At kirk Elliott they're
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: real simple, just eight percent when you buy and zero
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: commissions when you sell, with no hidden fees. Ever, that
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: is the other reason why I recommend them to all
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: of you. They also don't sell you quote rare coins
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: or precious coins that you pay insane markups on and
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: then when you go to sell them you find out
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: they're really not worth that much.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: They are a bullyon only approach.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: They focus on investment grade metals, no overpriced collectibles, no gimmicks.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: That means you get more gold or silver for.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Your money at fair value when it's time for you
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: to sell. So if you're ready to find out if
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: gold and silver is right for you and your portfolio,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: then call them and get a plan.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: You can visit them.

  Speaker 1: it's moral victories, victories that are really important, and one
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: of those big victories was a gift for Thanksgiving. A
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Georgia judge has dismissed the election interference case against President
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump and his allies. In a simple one page order,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: the Superior Court Judge mccaffee dismissed the racketeering case first
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: brought by the Fulton County District Attorney. You'll remember her name,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: that activist radical Fanny Willis. More than two years ago.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Will had already been disqualified from prosecuting Trump and fourteen
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: of his allies for attempting she claimed to interfere with
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election in Georgia. Willis was removed over
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: an appearance of impropriety created by a romantic relationship with
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: a special prosecutor that she chose to lead the case.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Judge mccaffee agreed to kill the probe after the executive
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: director of the Prosecuting Attorney's Council of Georgia took over
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: the case from Willis last month filed a petition saying
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: the alleged criminal conduct amount to more of a federal,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: not a state case. It was unlikely that legal action
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: against Trump could have moved forward while he was the president,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: but fourteen other defendants still faced charges, including former New
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: York mayor and Trump attorney Rue Giuliani and former White
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. Steve set out Trump's
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: leaded tottorney in Georgia applied the case's dismissal, saying this,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: the political persecution of President Trump by disqualified DA Fanny
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Willis is finally over. This case should never have been brought.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: A fair and impartial prosecutor has put an end to
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: this law fair now. After the Georgia Supreme Court in
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: September declined to hear Willis's appeal of her disqualification, it
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: fell to the Prosecuting Attorney's Council to find a new prosecutor.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: That is when they appointed the new person, and last
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: month he reached out to several prosecutors, but they all
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: declined to take on the case. Mcaffee set a November
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: fourteenth deadline for the appointment of a new prosecutor, so
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: the man in charge chose to appoint himself rather than
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: allow the case to be dismissed right away. Now this
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: new prosecutor, said Willis's office, had only recently delivered the
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: case file one hundred and one boxes.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: And an eight terrible fight hard drive.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: That's a lot of data and he hadn't had a
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: chance to review everything yet. Citing the public's legitimate interest
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: in the outcome of this case, he said he wanted
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: to assess the evidence and decide on the appropriate next steps.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: He also is an individual who has led the small
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: non parson Council since twenty eighteen, and said in a
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: court filing last month that he got no extra pay
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: for the case, but the Fulton County will reimburse expenses now.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: He previously spent about twenty five years as the elected
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Republican district attorney for a Calata judicial circuit southwest of Atlanta. Willis,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: as you may remember, announced a sprawling indictment against Trump
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: and eighteen others in August of twenty twenty three, using
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: the state's anti racketeering law to allege a wide ranging
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: conspiracy to illegally overturn Trump's narrow loss to Democrat Joe
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Biden in Georgia. Now, defense attorneys sought Willis's removal after
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: one revealed in January of twenty twenty four that Willis
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: in fact, had a romantic relationship with Nathan Wade, the
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: special prosecutor who she hired to lead the case. The
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: defense attorneys alleged the conflict of interest and said Willis
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: profited from the case when Wade uses earnings to pay
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: for lavish vacations that the pair took together. Now during
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: an extraordinary hearing the following month, Willis and Wade testified
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: about the intimate details.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: Of their relationship.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: They said the romance didn't begin until after Wade was hired,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: and that they split the costs for vacations and other
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: outings if you actually believe them. The judge rebuked Willis
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: for a tremendous lapse in judgment, but found no disqualifying
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: conflict of interest rulings she could stay on the case
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: if Wade resigned, which he did hours later. Defense attorneys appealed,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: and the Georgia Court of Appeals removed us from the
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: case in December of last year, citing an appearance of impropriety.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: The State Supreme Court declined to hear Willis's appeal, which
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: brought us to where we are today. The question now
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: is what will happen next to others that have been
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: attacked politically by this case, and what will the President
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: do from the White House. I say that to say,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: pay attention and watch closely. It could be very, very
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: interesting moving forward. There's a word that a lot of
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: you may have heard, affordability. That is the obsession word
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party right now, something they never mentioned
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: when Joe Biden was President of the United States of America. Instead,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: they lied to you and said that there was no
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: such thing as inflation, that it was transitory, and that
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: things were quote getting better, and gas prices really weren't
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: that bad.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: Well, now they're wanting.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Americans to believe that the economy is a disaster and
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: they're trying to blame Donald trum for everything. So let's
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: talk about the facts of where we were a year
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: ago compared to now, specifically around Black Friday and holiday
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: travel for Thanksgiving travelers.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: There's a bit of good news.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Let me say that again, a bit of good news
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: for you at the pump. Gas prices are holding steady,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: a far crime from the sticker shock of recent years.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Gas Buddy is now forecasting a national average three dollars
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: and two cents per gallon over the holiday, matching yes,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: a low price that we needed desperately to help Americans,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: and we also now know that there's other things that
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: are really exciting thanksgiving. Gas prices this is the lowest
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: we've had since the pandemic, when the national average hit
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: three dollars and thirty nine cents a gallon in twenty
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: twenty one and three dollars and fifty six cents a
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: gallon in twenty twenty two. Gas prices are coming down
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: and for many drivers, and national stability is showing up
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: locally as well. Nearly thirty states now boast average prices
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: of under three dollars a gallon, from Colorado to New
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Hampshire to Georgia. According to Triple A, Oklahoma tops the
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: list with an average of just two dollars and fifty
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: cents a gallon. That is a welcome number on many
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: gas station signs for consumers. Now at the other end
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: of the spectrum, where liberals are in charge, you've still
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: got paint at the pump with overregulation and taxation. Let
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: me give you an example of that. California is now
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: topping the list as the most expensive state when it
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: comes to buying a gallon of gasoline. When you look
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: at Oklahoma, a conservative state with not a lot of
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: regulation to make prices skyrocket and certain blends a demand
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: to protect the environment right because of global warming. Well,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: compare it to what they're paying in California. It is
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: four dollars and sixty three cents per gallon compared to
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: just two fifty a gallon in Oklahoma. Hawaii is actually cheaper,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: and that's not something you hear about very often, as
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Hawaii is one of the most expensive places to just
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: get gasoline. Two, it is now less expensive to buy
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: a gallon of gas in Hawaii than it is with
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: all the regulations on gasoline in California. Hawaii at four
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: dollars and forty seven cents a gallon compared to four
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: to sixty three in California. Washington state, another liberal bastion
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: of Wele socialism, they now are at four dollars and
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: eighteen cents a gallon, and rounding out the top ten
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: are Nevada at three eighty four a gallon, Alaska at
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: three seventy five a gallon, Arizona at three thirty seven
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: a gallon, and three states tied at three twenty nine Pennsylvania.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: Idaho, and Illinois.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, The most affordable gas can be found in conservative
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: states Oklahoma at two dollars and fifty seven cents a gallon,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Mississippi at two sixty one a gallon, and Louisiana two
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: sixty five a gallon. Those states then follow other conservative
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: states Tennessee at two sixty six a gallon, Arkansas at
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: two sixty seven a gallen, Texas at two seventy a gallon,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: Kansas at two seventy one, Missouri at two seventy three,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Alabama two seventy three, in Kentucky at two seventy four
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: a gallon. You notice the trend here. Where there are
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: conservative states, there are lower prices. And when you have
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: the most radical liberals at what are their prices almost
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: double what is being paid in conservative states. TRIPAA anticipates
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: at nearly eighty two million Americans will journey at least
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: fifty miles from home over the Thanksgiving holiday, one point
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: six million more than last year, marking a record high
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: for Thanksgiving travel. Now the revelation comes to the Trump
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: administration is pushing ahead on energy, dominance independence. It's a
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: key pillar President Donald Trump's economic and national security agenda,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: and while Thanksgiving marks the year's busiest travel stretch. It
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: isn't the only time drivers have caught a break. This
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: Labor Day, motors saw the lowest gas prices in a
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: half a decade. So this is not just one blip
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: on the map. It's a clear trend because of the
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: President of the United States America putting Americans first, which
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: also brings us to what's about to happen with US
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: holiday spending. How do Americans actually feel about the economy
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: and where we are right now? US holidays spending, we're
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: now being told is expected to top one trillion dollars
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: for the first time ever. I want you to take
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: a listen to what they had to say about the
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: holidays and shopping patterns this year on Fox Business Channel.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Despite concerns about the economy, people are still looking to spend.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: Jerry Willis has the numbers. She joins us now, Hey, Jerry.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's interesting everybody asking just how generous
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: American consumers will be this holiday season. It's the question
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: still under debate. Both Price Waterhouse and Deloitte surveys of
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: consumers showing Americans tightening their purse strings with declines of
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: anywhere from five to ten percent. Gen Z the most cautious,
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: saying they plan to spend twenty three percent less than
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: last year, but the National Retail Federation sees sales rising
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: two point nine to three point four percent, breaking through
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: the one trillion mark for the first time.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Matter now.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: Meanwhile, the big discounters like Walmart, TJ Max showing strong
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: early results. But what can consumers expect is they hit
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: them all. Some fire up their web browsers this holiday season.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: One retail consultant says potential price hikes loom with the
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: elimination of the Dominimu's tariff, which allowed goods under one
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: thousand from offshore to enter the US duty free. She
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: says it could cost sticker shock for some consumers. Listen,
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: you need to buy now, because we don't know what's
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: going to happen. Tariffs could go up at any point,
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: in which case those prices will get passed on. The
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: price increase we will immediately get passed on to the
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: consumer now. Travel snaffoos could also make it difficult to
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: get your presence delivered on time, so Herzog is also
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: recommending shipping presents early by December seventeenth at the least.
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: Plus the big the best prices that is on big
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: ticket electronics will be available after the holiday season January
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: fifth and later. Bottom line, if you want to save
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: money this holiday season, make a list, stick to it,
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: and start early.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: No, this is what also happening, as we're seeing something
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: else that's going to make you very happy, and that
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: is Thanksgiving meal costs have declined to the lowest level
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: in four years. Another example of affordability the Democrats are
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: trying to say is terrible, and actually it's running yet
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: again in the right direction. The costs of a traditional
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: Thanksgiving meal down sharply, falling to the lowest price since
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, according to the American Farm Bureau. The
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Farm Bureau's fortieth Anniel survey found that a classic Thanksgiving
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: dinner for ten people will cost fifty five to eighteen
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: that is down five percent from last year. Since nineteen
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: eighty six, volunteers across all fifty states in Puerto Rico
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: have been organized by the American Farm Bureau to record
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: local prices for turkey, cube stuffing, sweet potatoes, dinner rolls,
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: frozen peas, fresh cranberry, salery, carrots, pumpkin pie mix, and
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: crust whipping cream and whole milk price is soared during
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: the presidency of Joe Biden, with inflation rising to.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: The worst pace in forty years.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: The price of a classic Thanksgiving meal searched fourteen percent
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one alone, Biden's first year in office,
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: then hitting a record high of fifty three to thirty one,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: despite the administration's insistence that the price increases were transitory
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: or the result of a temporary supply shock. The following year,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: what came to be called Biden inflation was even worse.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: The price of a Thanksgiving meal jumped another twenty percent
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: to a skyrocketing sixty four oh five. By Biden's final Thanksgiving,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: the price of a traditional family holiday meal was twenty
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: four percent higher than it was when he took office, Yes,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: almost a twenty five percent increase. This year's decline was
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: driven by a sharp fall in the price of turkey.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: A sixteen pound turkey will cost an average of twenty
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: one to fifty That is down sixteen percent from Joe
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Biden's final year in office.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: So is the economy getting better?
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, it's pricing getting better for you, yes? And
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: is this something we should all be excited? About you
