• 0:01
  Speaker 1: One year ago, our country was dead. We had a
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: dead country because of an incompetent president and incompetent Democrats.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: All they know how to do is talk and think
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: about conspiracy theories and nonsense. We were a dead country
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: and now we have the hottest country anywhere in the world.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: If you're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Ben ferguson.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: Good Monday morning, nice to have you with us on
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: the forty seven Morning Update. And here the two big
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: stories we're covering this morning. Senor ram Paul coming out
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: signaling that there's big trouble coming down the pipe for
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: former first Betty, Joe Biden and Anthony Falci. Why well,
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: they're being looked at now in the auto pen probe.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: Also call it the Art of the Deal. The USA
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: has the biggest ever trade agreement with the European Union,
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump getting it done, and the EU will also
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: buy seven hundred and fifty billion in US energy.
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: I'll have all the details on that deal for you
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: in a moment.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: All right, I want to take a moment talk about
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: the economy. You've been seeing what's happening on Wall Street.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: You've seen what's been happening with interest rates and you've
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: probably seen gold prices hitting all time record highs. Why
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: because there is uncertainty all over the world right now,
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: and when there is uncertain times, you want real answers
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: about your financial stability. Well, at Kurt Elliott Precious Metals,
• 1:21

• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Morning Update and it starts right now.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Story number one.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: There's another major story that is happening and the media
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: is not covering it. Senator Rand Paul is now signaling
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: very clearly that Jill Biden, the former First Lady of
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: the United States of America, the wife of former President
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Joe Biden, as well as Anthony Fauci, you remember the
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: COVID guy, they could be looked at in the Auto
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: pen probe. Senator Paul, saying that the former First Lady,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Joe Biden, and Anthony Fauci absolutely could be examined during
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: the Congress's auto pen examination. President Trump has railed against
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: his predecessor, the former President Biden, for using the art
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: autopen to pardon individuals during his last few months in office.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: The President ordered a probe into the signatures on various
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: pardons in June, while GOP lawmakers requested interviews now with
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: several former White House staffers, including the former First Ladies
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: and the President's doctor who pled the fifth. They've now
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: also gone to staffers to testify and guess what they
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: pleaded the fifth as well. All of this playing out
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. Even though
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: Anthony Fauci has been pardoned, there is some question whether
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: it's a legitimate pardon. His pardon was not signed by
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: President Biden. That's what Senator Paul said in a statement.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: It's unclear quote whether President Biden is mentally cognitive enough
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: of the situation to know even who he pardoned. Hundreds
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: and hundreds of people were pardoned in a day by
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: a mechanical signature from a machine. We do know there's
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: been testimony from the people running the machine that they
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: never talked to the president and that they talked to
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: an assistant that works for the president's wife.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: That is where the first lady comes in. Now.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: Biden had previously argued that past administrations have used the
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: autopendicign government paperwork, proving its legality. However, Republicans have well
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: refused to let go of the criticism regarding his signature
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: on multiple pardons that he may not have known about,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: meaning they would be in theory no and void. Who
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: knew we weren't being led by Joe Biden, but were
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: being run by some kind of chief of staff, some
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: chief of staff that worked for his wife. That's something
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: to a lot of Americans to know. They want to
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: know who was the person that was granting power of pardons,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: who was the person that could have taken the country
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: to war, who was the person that was never elected?
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Senator Paul went on to say, adding quote, so I
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: think the way the best way to sort this out
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: is you have to go to court. And I think
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: the easiest way to get this into court is they
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: should indicate what's going to happen next. They should, for example,
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Anthony Fauci for line to Congress, and he will make
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: a defense that he's been pardon That's what again, the
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Senator said today. Senator Paul also pointed out that the
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: autopen was not used to sign the pardon for Hunter Biden.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: We know that Hunter Biden's pardon was signed directly by
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: the President of the United States of America. He went
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: on to say, quote, I think there is a question
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: whether these pardons are even valid. When he had to
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: pardon his son, he didn't take any chances by running
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: it through the auto pen. The pardon Frontter Biden for
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: any crimes committed over the last decade, any crimes was
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: done by personal hand signature by Joe Biden himself and
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: not by the auto pen. So if you look at
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: this story, there's two major questions that everyone should be asking.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Number one, why not indict a guy like Anthony Fauci
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: for lying to Congress and see if he uses the
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: I've been pardoned in court argument? And then it brings
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: up the big question does an auto pen signature that
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: the President may not have known about does it actually count?
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: In fact?
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: How many different and this is an even bigger question.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: Pardons came through the White House that the President had
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: no clue even happened. These are the real questions that
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: the American people deserve answers to, and the President obviously
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: making it clear that he's willing to get to the
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: bottom of it to make sure it was done the
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: right way. Now, Story number two, Donald Trump reaches a
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: historic trade deal with the European Union. Europe is going
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: to buy seven hundred and fifty billion, we're now being
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: told in US energy.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: This is massive.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: President Trump announcing the sweeping trade agreement with the European
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: Union on Sunday, setting a baseline fifteen percent tariff on
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: European imports, including automobiles, while keeping existing fifty percent duty
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: on steel and aluminum in place. Now it's part of
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: the deal, the EU committed to purchasing seven hundred and
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: fifty billion US energy production. Trump announcing the agreement during
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: a press conference with the European Commission president after a
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: private meeting at the Trump Turnberry golf Course in Scotland.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Here is part of what was said by the President
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: of United States of America at that event, where they say,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: we've reached a deal, so.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: We're going to do the following The European Union is
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: going to agree to purchase from the United States seven
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty billion dollars worth of energy, seven hundred
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: and fifty billion dollars worth of energy. They are going
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: to agree to invest into the United States six hundred
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: billion dollars more than they're investing already. So they're investing
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: a large amount of money. You know what that amount
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: of money is. It's very substantial, but they're going to
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: invest an additional six hundred billion dollars. They're agreeing to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: open up their countries to trade at zero tariff, so
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: that's a very big factor opening up their countries. All
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: of the countries will be opened up to trade with
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: the United States at zero tariff. And they're agreeing to
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: purchase a vast amount of military equipment. We don't know
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: what that number is, but it's the good news is
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: we make the best military equipment in the world, so
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: sort of you have to do that. I mean until
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: somebody tops us, which is not going to happen. We're
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: way ahead of every other country in terms of the
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: quality of the military equipment. You saw that recently in Iran,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: and you see that unfortunately, you see that often for
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: all the wrong reasons, right. So those things are seven
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty billion, six hundred billion, opening up the country.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: We are agreeing that the tariff straight across for automobiles
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: and everything else will be a straight across tariff of
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: fifteen percent, So we have a t para for fifteen percent.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: We have the opening up of all of the European countries,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: which I think I could say we're essentially closed. I mean,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: you weren't exactly taking our orders, you weren't exactly taking
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: our agriculture, and then you would have smaller things. But
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: for the most part, it was closed. And now it's open.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: It's open for our companies to go in and do
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: a good job with it. I think you'll like them.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I think you'll like it, and we will. Very importantly.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: They'll be investing a lot of money. But the military
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: is a big number. But that's one number we're not
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: determining it's going to be whatever it is, but they're
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: going to be purchasing hundreds of billions of dollars worth
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: of military equipment. They're very important that they're going to
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: purchase seven hundred and fifty seven hundred and fifty billion
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: dollars worth of energy, so that's going to be great.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: And six hundred billion dollars worth of investments into the
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: United States over and above.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: What they have so and.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: I think that basically concludes the deal. I mean, those
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: are the main factors. I don't think there are too
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: many other factors other then we're going to get along great.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: And we have a great relationship now with NATO, which
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: is largely the same I mean not exactly but pretty
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: pretty close, right largely and with NATO, as you know,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: they're going up to five percent from two percent, and
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the relationship is very strong with NATO. So I just
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: want to congratulate you. I think it's I think it's
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: great that we made a deal today instead of playing
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: games and maybe not making a deal at all. I
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: think it's I'm going to let you say, but I
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: think it's the biggest deal ever made. Thank you very much.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Yet again, another massive promise the President kept in a
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: victory for American workers and American manufacturers as well, the
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: President saying he was going to bring back fairness to
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: the marketplace, especially in places that we're taking advantage of
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: us where our markets were virtually shut down completely in
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: Europe from our automobiles and agriculture, just to name two
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: different categories. So if you're an American manufacturer, the President
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: is your best friend. If you're an American company that
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: needed access to Europe farmers, president should be your best friend.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: And yet again the President putting America first as he promised.
