- 2:23Speaker 1: Here is how the world is now reacting to the
- 2:26Speaker 1: NASDAC seeing the worst month since two thousand and eight.
- 2:29Speaker 1: When the housing crisis happened. Listen to this, and being
- 2:32Speaker 1: into the summer months now, the NAZDAC just had it's
- 2:34Speaker 1: worth worst month since October two thousand and eight, plunging
- 2:38Speaker 1: thirteen point three percent. Big tech earnings have fueled the bearishes,
- 2:42Speaker 1: most notably act disappointing quarter from Amazon. Julie, this was wow,
- 2:48Speaker 1: what a month for April, and of course you had
- 2:50Speaker 1: the Amazon earnings later in the month, really putting in
- 2:52Speaker 1: a button on this performance for the NAZAC. But it's
- 2:55Speaker 1: not just Amazon earnings. Really, this has been happening. It
- 2:57Speaker 1: happened throughout April, where disappointing tech earnings of course Netflix
- 3:01Speaker 1: as well, concerns about rising interest rates. You put all
- 3:04Speaker 1: these things together, you want to get a disastrous month,
- 3:06Speaker 1: like the Nazak just said. And it's not just the
- 3:09Speaker 1: Nazak that we should point out. It was actually pretty
- 3:12Speaker 1: broad based selling over the past month. Take a look
- 3:14Speaker 1: at theho Finance interactive here at the DAO off very
- 3:18Speaker 1: sharply over the past month. The S and P five
- 3:21Speaker 1: hundred town about ten percent on the month, and then
- 3:24Speaker 1: you had that disastrous performance for the Nazak, which to
- 3:27Speaker 1: be sure, was worse than the others, but it was
- 3:29Speaker 1: pretty bad for all three. Let's sit a little bit,
- 3:32Speaker 1: you know that they keep saying the word disaster, disaster.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Now Ben BURNANKI has also come out and he said
- 3:39Speaker 1: that Biden's economy right, Biden's America, Biden inflation is totally
- 3:44Speaker 1: out of control. Ben Bernanky, by the way, who helped
- 3:47Speaker 1: the US recover after the two thousand and eight crash,
- 3:50Speaker 1: now sees what he refers to his huge warning signs
- 3:54Speaker 1: on inflation, stagflation as well as student debt. Now, the
- 4:00Speaker 1: former Federal Reserve chairman has come out and warned of
- 4:03Speaker 1: what's coming in America if we stay on the same path.
- 4:07Speaker 1: He said, the US Central banks decision to delay its
- 4:09Speaker 1: response to the hyest inflation rate rates in four decades
- 4:13Speaker 1: quote was a mistake. Bernanke, who served two terms as
- 4:17Speaker 1: chair the Federal Reserve during the Bush and Obama administrations,
- 4:21Speaker 1: a non political guy, many would argue, help guide the
- 4:24Speaker 1: country through that O eight financial crash, another time in
- 4:27Speaker 1: which the Central Bank played an outsize role in trying
- 4:30Speaker 1: to help the economy recover. Speaking to CNBC, Bernanke said
- 4:35Speaker 1: that while he understands the reasons behind the Fed's delayed
- 4:39Speaker 1: response it was still a mistake, saying they should have
- 4:42Speaker 1: acted sooner to help bring down inflation rates that rose
- 4:45Speaker 1: as high as eight point five percent year over year
- 4:48Speaker 1: in April. Why did they delay the response? I think
- 4:52Speaker 1: in retrospect, yes, it was a mistake, Bernanke said, And
- 4:55Speaker 1: I think they agree it was a mistake. Brenik said.
- 4:58Speaker 1: The FED avoided taking more immediate action out of fears
- 5:01Speaker 1: that it would shock the market. Throughout twenty twenty one,
- 5:04Speaker 1: while inflation rates were steadily rising, Much of the public
- 5:08Speaker 1: response to the FED was based around a belief that
- 5:11Speaker 1: the rising rates were transitory. They were not. Powell got
- 5:15Speaker 1: it wrong, the White House got it wrong, and they
- 5:17Speaker 1: described it at the time as, Oh, don't worry about it.
- 5:21Speaker 1: It's not going to be a big issue, not enough
- 5:23Speaker 1: to leave a quote permanent mark in the form of
- 5:26Speaker 1: higher inflation. That's how wrong Poll and the White House were.
- 5:31Speaker 1: It wasn't until December of last year that Powe and
- 5:34Speaker 1: the Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, the same woman who last
- 5:38Speaker 1: week talking about the economy, said it's important we have abortion,
- 5:41Speaker 1: otherwise it could actually affect debt in this country and
- 5:46Speaker 1: inflation and the job market not a joke. That's what
- 5:49Speaker 1: Janet Yellen, the Treasury Secretary, said, as she advocated for
- 5:52Speaker 1: abortion on demand and for companies provide for travel for
- 5:56Speaker 1: you to get an abortion if rov Wait is struck down.
- 5:58Speaker 1: That's how unfocused the Treasury Secretary is right now, she said,
- 6:05Speaker 1: And again there was time to retire the transitory label
- 6:08Speaker 1: and began talking more impactfully about the measures that they
- 6:12Speaker 1: needed to take to limit the rise. It wasn't until
- 6:15Speaker 1: December of last year they even noticed it or admitted it. Now,
- 6:18Speaker 1: one other part about this that again I go back to,
- 6:21Speaker 1: this is what happens when you get a bunch of
- 6:23Speaker 1: activists and jobs where you shouldn't be an activist. Burnanki
- 6:26Speaker 1: was not an activist. The fact that you have the
- 6:29Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary testifying and talking about how important abortion is
- 6:34Speaker 1: in a time when we're dealing with out of control
- 6:36Speaker 1: inflation should really tell you a lot about the problems
- 6:40Speaker 1: we're having in this country. Which brings me to Secretary
- 6:44Speaker 1: of Transportation, the same guy that took that two months
- 6:48Speaker 1: maternity leave while we were having a crisis with transportation
- 6:51Speaker 1: in this country and a crisis at our ports. Well,
- 6:54Speaker 1: they've had enough of him at CNBC. CNBC, which is
- 6:58Speaker 1: pretty liberal day in and day out, finally had enough
- 7:01Speaker 1: of the propaganda coming for the Transportation Secretary, and CNBC
- 7:06Speaker 1: actually called out Secretary but a judge for talking about
- 7:09Speaker 1: the GOP saying, quote, that's not how we're going to
- 7:12Speaker 1: solve inflation, blaming somebody else who's not in charge. Take
- 7:17Speaker 1: a listen and look, I've talked about how you could
- 7:20Speaker 1: raise corporate taxes from where they are today, so we're
- 7:22Speaker 1: not so far off here. But do you not agree
- 7:27Speaker 1: that these are two different issues, Meaning if you change
- 7:29Speaker 1: corporate taxes, yes, in the immediate term, maybe we'll have
- 7:32Speaker 1: some impact on inflation, but it's a corporate tax is
- 7:36Speaker 1: a long term issue. You either deal with it because
- 7:37Speaker 1: you think it's the right thing to do, or it's
- 7:39Speaker 1: the wrong thing to do, not because you're trying to
- 7:41Speaker 1: deal with inflation. Right this second week, a lot of
- 7:44Speaker 1: is what you're going to do with the revenue. And
- 7:47Speaker 1: again we have an agenda to use tax revenue on
- 7:50Speaker 1: things that are going to ease inflationary pressures. But also
- 7:54Speaker 1: we have a very clear contrast right now, right you
- 7:56Speaker 1: have Senate Republican proposals that are about raising taxes on
- 7:59Speaker 1: the poor in the middle class, And you have the
- 8:01Speaker 1: president's worldview, which is shared by the majority of Americans,
- 8:04Speaker 1: that if anybody needs to be caring more the load
- 8:07Speaker 1: right now, it is the wealthiest and corporations that have
- 8:10Speaker 1: become extremely profitable, by the way often you well hold
- 8:15Speaker 1: on this is really important that have invoked inflation as
- 8:18Speaker 1: an excuse to keep prices high in ways that are
- 8:21Speaker 1: not just I love this. That's not how you're going
- 8:25Speaker 1: to solve inflation. Trying to talk about the other guys.
- 8:28Speaker 1: He's sitting there saying, well, you know, let's look at
- 8:30Speaker 1: the Republicans and then saying cent republicans proposals are about
- 8:35Speaker 1: raising taxes on the poor in the middle class, which
- 8:37Speaker 1: by the way, is not their proposal, And you have
- 8:41Speaker 1: the president's worldview. So now we're talking about world views
- 8:43Speaker 1: which is shared by the majority of Americans that if
- 8:47Speaker 1: anybody needs to be carrying more of the load right now,
- 8:49Speaker 1: it's so wealthy, it's incorporations that have become extremely profitable.
- 8:53Speaker 1: By the way, you hear CNBC say, but that's not
- 8:57Speaker 1: how you're going to solve inflation. This is how out
- 9:02Speaker 1: of touch with reality they are at this White House
- 9:05Speaker 1: when it comes to the economy. Right now, this is
- 9:08Speaker 1: how bad it is. I go back to the Treasury Secretary.
- 9:11Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. This is a woman that's been
- 9:15Speaker 1: around for a long time doing this. She is now
- 9:19Speaker 1: more focused on abortion than anything else. In fact, Jennet
- 9:24Speaker 1: Yellen also said we need to be careful about complete
- 9:27Speaker 1: euban on Russian oil, saying we got to be careful
- 9:31Speaker 1: because she knows that in America we're not producing enough
- 9:33Speaker 1: oil to protect ourselves. Europe clearly needs to reduce its
- 9:39Speaker 1: dependence on Russia with respect to energy, but we need
- 9:44Speaker 1: to be careful when we think about a complete European
- 9:49Speaker 1: ban on sea oil imports. That would clearly raise global
- 9:55Speaker 1: oil prices. It would have a damaging impact on Europe
- 10:00Speaker 1: and on other parts of the world, and counterintuitively, it
- 10:05Speaker 1: could actually have very little negative impact on Russia's little
- 10:11Speaker 1: impact on Russian Now, why she's saying that because she
- 10:13Speaker 1: understands that America is not energy independent. We're not doing
- 10:16Speaker 1: anything to make us more energy independent, even though we
- 10:20Speaker 1: know exactly what's going on right now. You know, Janet
- 10:24Speaker 1: Yellen comes out and she's sitting there, She's talking about, Hey,
- 10:27Speaker 1: I know we're likely to see another year in which
- 10:29Speaker 1: twelve month inflation numbers remain high. She also dropped that
- 10:33Speaker 1: bomb this week about this from the White House. I
- 10:35Speaker 1: don't want to make a prediction exactly as to what's
- 10:40Speaker 1: going to happen in the second half of the year.
- 10:43Speaker 1: You know, we're likely to see another year in which
- 10:46Speaker 1: twelve month inflation numbers remain very, uncomfortably high. So, in
- 10:52Speaker 1: other words, Janet Yellen's telling you we got a disaster
- 10:54Speaker 1: on our hands. We weren't paying attention. Right, there's the
- 10:59Speaker 1: and yet when she says we have all these problems,
- 11:02Speaker 1: she also says that there is no change in Biden's
- 11:06Speaker 1: anti energy policies. So we're gonna stick with us indoctrination
- 11:10Speaker 1: that if you do not stand with us, we will
- 11:14Speaker 1: punish you. You better get on a bus, you better
- 11:17Speaker 1: get a bike, you better get a hybrid, You better
- 11:20Speaker 1: become energy independent or from oil and gas. Right, you
- 11:24Speaker 1: gotta have solar, you gotta have all these other things.
- 11:27Speaker 1: And we are not changing our stance on our anti
- 11:30Speaker 1: energy policies, is what the Treasury Secretary said. Oh, by
- 11:33Speaker 1: the way, she's had enough time. While all this is happening,
- 11:37Speaker 1: and they were asleep at the wheel literally on inflation,
- 11:40Speaker 1: as Bernanke put it, to advocate for abortion on demand,
- 11:44Speaker 1: because that's what the Treasury Secretary should be talking about
- 11:47Speaker 1: while we are in the midst of a major crisis
- 11:51Speaker 1: of inflation, Biden inflation in the United States of America.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Secretary Janet Yellen also had to take commands from the
- 11:59Speaker 1: propagandist at the White House. This is who she works for,
- 12:03Speaker 1: and the Treasury Secretary understands those commands to the point
- 12:06Speaker 1: where she actually after warning not to shut off buying
- 12:10Speaker 1: oil would have catastrophic consequences of countries like Hungry and
- 12:13Speaker 1: others if you just shut down all the oil coming
- 12:16Speaker 1: out of Russia, because they haven't prepared for energy independence either.
- 12:21Speaker 1: She also says, in this country, knowing how big of
- 12:24Speaker 1: a problem of energy independence is, that the Biden administration
- 12:28Speaker 1: has no change in their anti energy policies, and I
- 12:32Speaker 1: guess she's proud of it. Energy is the big topic,
- 12:35Speaker 1: and I want to understand from you how you reconcile
- 12:39Speaker 1: with what clearly is a shift in posture around energy
- 12:44Speaker 1: and fossil fuels. By the way, I want to say this,
- 12:47Speaker 1: I understand I'm okay with protecting our environment, I really am.
- 12:52Speaker 1: I'm okay with people with new innovations. I got a
- 12:56Speaker 1: neighbor that just got a new electric truck. The thing
- 12:58Speaker 1: is awesome. Now we have no idea how it's going
- 13:00Speaker 1: to work down the road, but at least right now,
- 13:03Speaker 1: it is genuinely pretty cool, all right, And I really
- 13:06Speaker 1: do I believe that it is cool. I like it.
- 13:09Speaker 1: But the odd that we should be sacrificing our energy
- 13:13Speaker 1: independence and putting money in the hands of those in Russia,
- 13:17Speaker 1: and putting money in the hands of those in the
- 13:19Speaker 1: Middle East, and putting the world at risk and the
- 13:21Speaker 1: EU at risk and other smaller countries at risk from
- 13:24Speaker 1: being attacked over by Russia right now for the sake
- 13:29Speaker 1: of green and alternative agenda is insanity. And the majority
- 13:33Speaker 1: of Americans, by the way, agree with me. This doesn't
- 13:36Speaker 1: make good sense. And that's what CNBC has asked you,
- 13:39Speaker 1: Like Cook, we understand it in general and principle, clearly
- 13:42Speaker 1: moving in a direction of being energy and responsible. Right
- 13:47Speaker 1: I'm I don't want to trash the world or the environment,
- 13:50Speaker 1: But at the same time, I'm not going to shoot
- 13:52Speaker 1: myself in the foot to accomplish something that is in
- 13:55Speaker 1: fact destroying the world and destroying vibes with what we're
- 13:59Speaker 1: witness thing and U craate in other parts around the world,
- 14:02Speaker 1: and also making our enemies richer like China. Well, the
- 14:06Speaker 1: climate goals are very important and there's no change in
- 14:10Speaker 1: that if anything. Okay, So you have inflation, you have
- 14:15Speaker 1: the highest price of gas we've ever seen the history
- 14:17Speaker 1: of anyone's lifetime in the United States of America. You
- 14:21Speaker 1: have world superpowers that are gaining on America. You have
- 14:24Speaker 1: US in trillions and trillions of dollars. You have Americans
- 14:29Speaker 1: that are suffering that need relief. You have a financial
- 14:33Speaker 1: crisis that is clearly growing with inflation that you just
- 14:37Speaker 1: told us is going to be around for well over
- 14:39Speaker 1: the next twelve months. And when you're asked about the
- 14:42Speaker 1: US announcing sanctions, and you're asked about what's happening in Europe,
- 14:47Speaker 1: and when you're asked about what Americans relief is coming,
- 14:51Speaker 1: you say that your top priority now is steel, your
- 14:54Speaker 1: green alternative energy, and that that has not changed. So
- 14:58Speaker 1: in the face of all I just mentioned, you guys
- 15:02Speaker 1: are refusing to change because you're a bunch of psychopaths.
- 15:05Speaker 1: That are obsessed with I would argue destroying the United
- 15:07Speaker 1: it's of American turning us into a communist country. And
- 15:10Speaker 1: the only way to accomplish that is that the majority
- 15:12Speaker 1: of the American population is in fact suffering and weak,
- 15:15Speaker 1: and you say, we are the government, we are here
- 15:18Speaker 1: to save you. You got to understand there was no
- 15:21Speaker 1: chance that communism was looked at or this type of
- 15:25Speaker 1: government action was looked at, when Donald Trump was present.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Why because when Americans, when families black, white, liberal, conservative, rich,
- 15:37Speaker 1: middle class and even poor, are actually able to pay
- 15:40Speaker 1: their bills and they are making a decent living and
- 15:44Speaker 1: the costs of goods and services are low and the
- 15:47Speaker 1: interest rates are low, people can actually experience independence from
- 15:53Speaker 1: the government. They can experience success of being able to
- 15:57Speaker 1: stand on their own two feet. And that was the
- 15:59Speaker 1: biggest threat to the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party has
- 16:04Speaker 1: to have people that they look like, look at as
- 16:06Speaker 1: modern day slaves where they cannot survive without them. They
- 16:14Speaker 1: desperately need tens of millions of American families to be
- 16:18Speaker 1: reliant on them for food and water and shelter and
- 16:21Speaker 1: gas and the internet and cell phones, right basic necessities.
- 16:26Speaker 1: They desperately need Americans to be dependent on them. That's
- 16:32Speaker 1: one of the reasons why they were so afraid of
- 16:34Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Donald Trump had the lowest unemployment rate ever
- 16:38Speaker 1: in history for African Americans, for Asian Americans, for Hispanic Americans.
- 16:43Speaker 1: That meant that the Democratic Party lost power because they
- 16:47Speaker 1: couldn't hold people, They couldn't hold them hostage in living
- 16:53Speaker 1: in poverty. You know, I'll give you another example of
- 16:57Speaker 1: just the disaster that is this administration. The GOP representative
- 17:02Speaker 1: who showed the baby formula stocked at the border for
- 17:07Speaker 1: illegal immigrants has now been attacked by all of those
- 17:12Speaker 1: on the left, and now they've said she is a liar.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Guess what. She's now been backed up by the facts.
- 17:21Speaker 1: In fact, Representative camac a Republican who called the Transportation
- 17:26Speaker 1: Transportation Secretary Mayor Pete a liar for claiming the Biden
- 17:30Speaker 1: administration had acted from day one after the recall a
- 17:33Speaker 1: baby formula. On Sunday, Mayor Pete lyed on Face the Nation, saying, quote,
- 17:39Speaker 1: the administration acted from day one after the recall, taking
- 17:42Speaker 1: steps like creating more flexibility for the WIG program to
- 17:45Speaker 1: help rebalance the availability of formula in the States. Now,
- 17:49Speaker 1: if you go to Mexico right now, and you can
- 17:52Speaker 1: if you're down there. The pictures have been going viral.
- 17:54Speaker 1: They have the shelf stocked with baby formula. As I
- 18:00Speaker 1: was talking about him, you know, going to speak at
- 18:02Speaker 1: this conference. It's so important in Budapest and hungry on freedom.
- 18:08Speaker 1: Their grocery shelves. One of my friends that just got
- 18:10Speaker 1: there sent me a picture stacked, not a single thing
- 18:14Speaker 1: missing from their shelves. They're next to Ukraine with all
- 18:17Speaker 1: this going on, They've got baby formula. How is it
- 18:21Speaker 1: that we only have a problem in the US, because again,
- 18:26Speaker 1: you guys are sleep at the wheel. You're the same
- 18:27Speaker 1: people that were sleeping the wheel when we had the
- 18:29Speaker 1: problems in reports before Christmas because you were on maternity
- 18:32Speaker 1: leave for two months as a dude, because of our
- 18:38Speaker 1: woke kigenia in this country. You're the same guy that's
- 18:42Speaker 1: asleep with the wheel on baby formula, the same guy
- 18:44Speaker 1: that's asleep at the wheel on oil and gas. And
- 18:49Speaker 1: as this congresswoman said, she said, quote to the Secretary
- 18:52Speaker 1: of Transportation, remarks that they have been on top of
- 18:54Speaker 1: this from day one. That is a lie. She pointed
- 18:57Speaker 1: out that she'd been criticized after She posted text messages
- 19:00Speaker 1: photos she said, we're sent from the border patrol agents
- 19:03Speaker 1: showing a stockpile of baby formula intended for illegal immigrants.
- 19:07Speaker 1: She said, yesterday I was on the border myself, and
- 19:09Speaker 1: the facts on the border exactly how you that you've
- 19:12Speaker 1: been stating them. I decided to go down myself to
- 19:15Speaker 1: film it in low Behold. Not only were there stocked warehouses,
- 19:18Speaker 1: but there were multiple stocked warehouses that have not only
- 19:22Speaker 1: been filled with baby formula as well as diapers and
- 19:26Speaker 1: wipes and clothing, but they have been doing this for months,
- 19:30Speaker 1: and there's more baby formula en route to the border
- 19:33Speaker 1: to illegal immigrants that are crossing. Now. Remember the Biden
- 19:38Speaker 1: administration says you should be proud of them because they've
- 19:41Speaker 1: taken your tax dollars and they are providing food, they're
- 19:46Speaker 1: providing self providing airline tickets, they're providing bus transfers, they're
- 19:51Speaker 1: providing hotel rooms at the border, and the next day
- 19:53Speaker 1: they go to they're providing baby formula for illegal immigrants
- 19:57Speaker 1: who are coming across the border. Right Mayor pet Transportation Secretary.
- 20:03Speaker 1: The administration had acted from day one. She said, they
- 20:06Speaker 1: canceled forty per three percent of this manufacturer's production with
- 20:12Speaker 1: no plan to backfill the market share that they to
- 20:15Speaker 1: make that up. So they've not been on top of
- 20:18Speaker 1: this since they knew what they were canceling. When they
- 20:21Speaker 1: canceled forty three percent of the baby formula manufacturing in America.
- 20:27Speaker 1: She went on to say, this isn't a problem happened yesterday.
- 20:29Speaker 1: Moms for months have been saying it was getting harder
- 20:32Speaker 1: and harder to find formula because the stockpile was dissipating,
- 20:38Speaker 1: right it was, it was disappearing. She said, this is
- 20:42Speaker 1: just another example of the broken administration that doesn't know
- 20:45Speaker 1: how to govern and certainly doesn't know how to take
- 20:47Speaker 1: care of the American people. She went on to show
- 20:51Speaker 1: videos from her trip to the facility at the border.
- 20:53Speaker 1: One image showed mounds of infant formula featuring handwritten dates
- 20:58Speaker 1: likely to denote expert ration. Of June twenty twenty three,
- 21:03Speaker 1: Mayor Pete had blamed Abbot Nutrition for the formulas, complaining, fundamentally,
- 21:09Speaker 1: we are here because a company was not able to
- 21:11Speaker 1: guarantee that its plant was safe, and that plant has
- 21:15Speaker 1: been shut down. So like you're supposed to praise him
- 21:17Speaker 1: for this, he said, let's be very clear. This is
- 21:20Speaker 1: a capitalistic country. The government does not baby formula, nor
- 21:24Speaker 1: should it. Companies make baby formula. And one of those companies,
- 21:28Speaker 1: a company which, by the way, it seemed to have
- 21:29Speaker 1: forty percent market share, messed up and is unable to
- 21:33Speaker 1: confirm that a plant, a major plant, is safe and
- 21:36Speaker 1: free of contamination. But if you're gonna shut down forty
- 21:39Speaker 1: three percent of the market share of something, that it's
- 21:42Speaker 1: probably time for you to have a plan on how
- 21:45Speaker 1: you're going to backfill it. And they didn't. Can you
- 21:48Speaker 1: imagine if this happened under Donald Trump's leadership? Holy cow,
- 21:51Speaker 1: that freaking out twenty four to seven, putting crying mothers
- 21:56Speaker 1: saying that babies are dying all over the place on
- 21:59Speaker 1: this story. Worry, what's the media doing? Not a damn thing.
- 22:05Speaker 1: So let me go back to Secretary of Treasury Janet Yellen,
- 22:11Speaker 1: who is very proud to say, while you are suffering,
- 22:16Speaker 1: that there is no change in Biden's anti energy policies
- 22:20Speaker 1: and that the green climate change agenda is alive and well,
- 22:24Speaker 1: regardless of what you end up paying at the pump,
- 22:27Speaker 1: regardless of how much you're suffering. I go back to
- 22:31Speaker 1: the premise of liberalism of communism, socialism. People have to
- 22:36Speaker 1: be weak for those things to flourish. You have to
- 22:41Speaker 1: be desperate for any help, which is when the government
- 22:44Speaker 1: steps in and gets you addicted to government aid. If
- 22:48Speaker 1: you are an independent and strong population, communism and socialism
- 22:57Speaker 1: doesn't work, because then you know you'd be going backwards.
- 23:00Speaker 1: Why would you do that. That's why I said earlier.
- 23:03Speaker 1: Donald Trump is such a threat and his economy was
- 23:05Speaker 1: such a threat to the Democratic Party. They need a
- 23:09Speaker 1: week America. Don't forget. This isn't the first time they've
- 23:13Speaker 1: tried this. Jimmy Carter did it, and then after that
- 23:17Speaker 1: Barack Obama really did it. Remember when they said it
- 23:20Speaker 1: was an honor to be a food stamp president. It's
- 23:23Speaker 1: a privilege to be a food stamp president. Remember when
- 23:26Speaker 1: Jesse Jackson said that an African American church and people
- 23:29Speaker 1: cheered on. They said, let's show some love and admiration
- 23:32Speaker 1: for Barack Obama at the time when more Americans won
- 23:35Speaker 1: food stamps and any other time in American history modern history.
- 23:38Speaker 1: I should say, since we've been keeping track of it
- 23:41Speaker 1: since the Great Depression, they understood that if you could
- 23:46Speaker 1: get people in poverty living in poverty, and then you
- 23:48Speaker 1: could be the sugar daddy, the sugar mama for those
- 23:51Speaker 1: living in poverty. The Democratic Party could keep getting reelected,
- 23:55Speaker 1: which is why they're doing what they're doing right now,
- 23:58Speaker 1: which is exactly why the Treasury said, Terry is not
- 24:01Speaker 1: going to say anything but about the socialists ridiculous idea
- 24:05Speaker 1: right now that we need to have green alternative energy
- 24:08Speaker 1: above all else, regardless of how much you are hurting.
- 24:11Speaker 1: I want to understand from you how you reconcile the
- 24:15Speaker 1: administration's climate goals right now with what clearly is a
- 24:19Speaker 1: shift in posture around energy and fossil fuels. Well, the
- 24:25Speaker 1: climate goals are very important and there's no change in that,
- 24:29Speaker 1: if anything. Seeing what's happening because of our dependence on
- 24:35Speaker 1: global markets for oil and to some extent, natural gas,
- 24:40Speaker 1: just emphasizes the importance of making the transition that will
- 24:45Speaker 1: shield us from events in Russia, global developments that can
- 24:51Speaker 1: negatively impact oil markets. You really want to move and
- 24:57Speaker 1: see the need all of us, the United States, it's
- 25:00Speaker 1: n our allies to move quickly to renewables that will
- 25:04Speaker 1: give us a safer and more independent energy picture. Okay,
- 25:10Speaker 1: so translation, we created this problem on purpose. We're smart,
- 25:16Speaker 1: we know what we're doing here. This is being used
- 25:19Speaker 1: a catalyst to force you into submission to buy that
- 25:22Speaker 1: green car. Right, it's going to force you into submission
- 25:26Speaker 1: on solar and when we're punishing you until you get
- 25:30Speaker 1: on board, and eventually, at some point you will get
- 25:34Speaker 1: on board. Senator Tim Scott delivered a scathing rebuked by
- 25:42Speaker 1: the way of the Treasury Secretary for number one even
- 25:45Speaker 1: talking about abortion as she did this last week when
- 25:48Speaker 1: she should have been focused on the economy and saying
- 25:52Speaker 1: it's important that we have abortions on demand to help
- 25:55Speaker 1: our economy. Her words and the app an American. Senator
- 26:02Speaker 1: Tim Scott delivered a stunning rebuke to Janet Yell and claiming,
- 26:06Speaker 1: how dare you talk about black women and women of
- 26:08Speaker 1: color the way that you did, implying that we need
- 26:11Speaker 1: abortions to be successful. To take a listen, I'm just
- 26:15Speaker 1: surprised that we find ways to weave into every facet
- 26:22Speaker 1: of our lives such such an importance and painful reality
- 26:26Speaker 1: for so many people, to make it sound like it's
- 26:31Speaker 1: just another point four percent added to our labor force
- 26:36Speaker 1: participation as a result of the issue of abortion. Just
- 26:40Speaker 1: to me seems harsh. Well, I certainly don't mean to
- 26:48Speaker 1: see what I think the effects are in a manner
- 26:50Speaker 1: that's harsh. What we're talking about is whether or not
- 26:55Speaker 1: women will have the ability to regulate their reproductive situation
- 27:06Speaker 1: in ways that will enable them to plan lives that
- 27:10Speaker 1: are fulfilling and satisfying for them. And one aspect of
- 27:16Speaker 1: a satisfying life is being able to feel that you
- 27:20Speaker 1: have the financial resources to raise a child, that the
- 27:25Speaker 1: children you bring into the world are wanted, and that
- 27:30Speaker 1: you have the ability to take care of them. In
- 27:33Speaker 1: many cases, abortions are of teenage women, particularly low income
- 27:39Speaker 1: and often black, who aren't in a position to be
- 27:44Speaker 1: able to care for children, have unexpected pregnancies, and it
- 27:51Speaker 1: deprives them of the ability, often to continue their education
- 27:56Speaker 1: to later participate in the workforce. So there there is
- 28:00Speaker 1: a spillover into labor force participation. But and it means
- 28:06Speaker 1: the children will grow up in poverty and do worse themselves.
- 28:10Speaker 1: Thank you let me. I'll just simply say that, as
- 28:14Speaker 1: a guy raised by a black woman in abject poverty,
- 28:17Speaker 1: I'm thankful to be here as a United States senator.
- 28:21Speaker 1: Amen to him, by the way, for saying that, and
- 28:23Speaker 1: by the way, what she just said there's incredibly racist. Well,
- 28:26Speaker 1: I'm just trying to make sure we get enough black
- 28:27Speaker 1: kids aborted so they don't grow up in poverty. That's
- 28:31Speaker 1: what she just said. As Treasury secretary. Just said that.
- 28:33Speaker 1: She also said, you should be thankful that a bunch
- 28:35Speaker 1: of black women are having abortions and a bunch of
- 28:38Speaker 1: women are having abortion because it's going to help you
- 28:40Speaker 1: find a job. So when you're alive, just know you're
- 28:43Speaker 1: not having to compete against the millions of kids that
- 28:45Speaker 1: we are aboarding right in the labor force. It's gonna
- 28:48Speaker 1: get it's gonna be a positive impact on your life.
- 28:51Speaker 1: If everybody around you starts aboarding people, it's gonna be
- 28:54Speaker 1: better for your kids that are alive if we advocate
- 28:57Speaker 1: for abortion. That is the argument she just made as
- 28:59Speaker 1: a Treasure secretary, because if they are aborted, then you
- 29:05Speaker 1: do the averages on this and it's gonna be an
- 29:07Speaker 1: easier place for you to get a job. Now, what
- 29:10Speaker 1: is this really that they're talking about. They're talking talking
- 29:12Speaker 1: about population control. You understand that, right, And it's also
- 29:17Speaker 1: extremely racist what Jennet Ellen just said. And we should
- 29:20Speaker 1: all be honest about that. When she's like, well, it's
- 29:24Speaker 1: you know, we're just trying to get rid of a
- 29:25Speaker 1: bunch of black kids, right because they're gonna grow up
- 29:28Speaker 1: in poverty anyway, that's straight up racism. It's a white
- 29:31Speaker 1: woman saying, Wow, let's be honest. All the black kids
- 29:34Speaker 1: are growing up in poverty, and all those black kids
- 29:37Speaker 1: are you know, they're they're gonna they're gonna have a
- 29:38Speaker 1: worse life if we don't let their parents just abort them.
- 29:42Speaker 1: And this idea that the majority of people having abortions
- 29:45Speaker 1: are like fifteen years old is absurd. It's not true.
- 29:49Speaker 1: These Democrats are just filled with pure sick evil. This
- 29:56Speaker 1: is communism and social them. They're no longer the Democratic Party.
- 30:01Speaker 1: You know, I could deal with a Bill Clinton. I've
- 30:03Speaker 1: said that before. I really could. I could deal with
- 30:05Speaker 1: a guy like Bill Clinton. I could deal even with
- 30:08Speaker 1: a guy liked Caucus or Jimmy Carter. But what you're
- 30:12Speaker 1: witnessing right now is what Democrats have really been wanting
- 30:15Speaker 1: for years. They were just too afraid to say it.
- 30:17Speaker 1: Now they're not right. That's what this really is. When
- 30:23Speaker 1: you have a Treasury secretary telling you that we need
- 30:25Speaker 1: abortions on demand because it's gonna help you find a job.
- 30:29Speaker 1: And a Treasury secretary that tells you, what's just a
- 30:31Speaker 1: bunch of black kids that write that are gonna have
- 30:32Speaker 1: a lot of these abortions, They're gonna grow up in poverty.
- 30:35Speaker 1: That is racism from the Democratic Party. But you notice
- 30:38Speaker 1: on a single article was written about that Jennis Jenny
- 30:41Speaker 1: Jellen goes full blown racist, older white woman goes full
- 30:44Speaker 1: blown racists, right, I mean, I mean, this is straight
- 30:49Speaker 1: up racism from the Treasury secretary. And why is she
- 30:55Speaker 1: even testifying a Congress on the issue of abortion and
- 30:57Speaker 1: how it's gonna give you a perk of finding a
- 31:00Speaker 1: job if we can abort a bunch of people. I mean,
- 31:02Speaker 1: what's next? Are going to advocate for killing off people
- 31:04Speaker 1: so to make the country an easier place for you
- 31:07Speaker 1: to be able to survive. And she says, we refuse,
- 31:12Speaker 1: with the highest oil and gas prices that we have
- 31:14Speaker 1: ever had in history, to change our policy even temporarily. Okay,
- 31:22Speaker 1: even temporarily. We are not going to change our policies
- 31:27Speaker 1: even temporarily on what we are demanding with green and
- 31:32Speaker 1: alternative energy. And they want me to believe that they
- 31:36Speaker 1: are in favor of protecting and defending us in this country,
- 31:40Speaker 1: that they're acting in the best interests of us in
- 31:45Speaker 1: this economy where we are. There's no change on our
- 31:49Speaker 1: Biden anti energy policy, So just know that no changes whatsoever.
- 31:56Speaker 1: She says. The war in Ukraine underscores a need to
- 31:59Speaker 1: for clean and for care energy. Wouldn't that mean that
- 32:03Speaker 1: in the United States of America that we would actually
- 32:06Speaker 1: do more to get energy independence. No, that's not what
- 32:09Speaker 1: she's saying. She says, your energy independence only comes from
- 32:12Speaker 1: things that they approve. Second, energy security. The invasion of
- 32:17Speaker 1: Ukraine has also underscored the need for sustainable, affordable, clean,
- 32:23Speaker 1: and secure energy for economic growth and security for the
- 32:27Speaker 1: United States, as well as for governments that partner with
- 32:31Speaker 1: the fees. The MDB's promotion of energy efficiency and capital
- 32:37Speaker 1: investment toward diverse energy sources like solar, wind and other
- 32:43Speaker 1: non fossil fuel based energy sources and away from suppliers
- 32:48Speaker 1: such as Russia that strengthens energy security and reduces short
- 32:53Speaker 1: term fossil fuel price risks, all while addressing the long
- 32:58Speaker 1: term threat of climate change. Public finance alone cannot meet
- 33:03Speaker 1: this challenge, so Treasury is encouraging the MDBs to undertake
- 33:08Speaker 1: reforms and adopt more ambitious targets for mobilizing private capital,
- 33:14Speaker 1: particularly through their private sector windows. Many low income countries
- 33:20Speaker 1: are facing growing debt burdens as the pandemic continues into
- 33:24Speaker 1: a third year. If there it is, there's your closing argument,
- 33:30Speaker 1: we will stay the course. We will destroy this country,
- 33:34Speaker 1: and we will do it until you submit. And if
- 33:38Speaker 1: we have to get rid of people through abortion to
- 33:40Speaker 1: make our economy work, we will do it. If it
- 33:43Speaker 1: takes you paying five to fifty six dollars seven dollars
- 33:47Speaker 1: a gallon to accomplish our agenda, even if you're against it,
- 33:51Speaker 1: we will do it. We will undermine every institution this country,
- 33:55Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, if that's what it takes for us
- 33:57Speaker 1: to implement what we want to do. We will come
- 33:59Speaker 1: after your kids, by the way, and mask mandates and
- 34:02Speaker 1: vaccine mandates, which I want to remind you right now,
- 34:05Speaker 1: they're trying to make it where you have to wear
- 34:06Speaker 1: a mask again when you get on an airplane, even
- 34:08Speaker 1: though there was no spike in COVID after the mask
- 34:11Speaker 1: mandate expirer after I should say that Judge struck it down.
- 34:16Speaker 1: These people are not listening to you. They're not working
- 34:18Speaker 1: for you. If there's any one thing that they're trying
- 34:22Speaker 1: to do right now, it's trying to make you weak,
- 34:25Speaker 1: trying to make you poor, because the weaker you are
- 34:29Speaker 1: and the poorer you are, the better off they are
- 34:32Speaker 1: as a party. They are then more independent and more
- 34:37Speaker 1: powerful because then you will need them because you can't
- 34:40Speaker 1: pay your bills. Never forget what communism is, because that
- 34:45Speaker 1: is what they're trying to do right now, and they
- 34:47Speaker 1: keep saying it without using the word, and we need
- 34:50Speaker 1: to be using the word. Don't forget. Subscribe to our
