understand the financial markets

02:01

understand that first of all when you

02:03

own a piece of a company you're locked

02:05

up right you are locked up after IPO for

02:08

months afterwards unable to sell your

02:10

02:12

done right because they're talking about

02:14

potentially This Is wealth transfer to

02:16

Trump to win the presidency um that even

02:19

after the lockup is done you just can't

02:21

sell your shares in the market then tank

02:23

the entire stock price but these people

know it they're in a financial show

02:27

they're talking about Finance they

02:29

understand this work but they don't care

02:30

because they want to obate the truth but

02:32

also what's so interesting is that they

02:34

were look here this is another example

02:37

of lawfare right another example of

02:40

going outside the Democratic process to

02:42

win an election right the Democratic

02:44

party the people upholding democracy

02:46

well they will do anything to get

02:48

somebody who will Who who they know they

02:50

will lose in the Democratic process to

02:53

get them knock out some other way we saw

02:55

it with Trump in terms of legal

02:57

operations against him uh across the

02:59

country and now we're seeing this MSNBC

03:01

crew essentially saying we want the SEC

03:06

to get involved and they want the SEC to

03:09

do their dirty work again they're trying

03:11

to find any non-democratic process to

03:14

get rid of trump they want to do an

03:16

investigation on Trump so that whatever

03:18

reason they obviously want him to lose

03:21

that's what we're looking at

03:23

here absolutely now the Biden White

03:26

House are demanding Israel come clean on

03:29

the killing of Aid workers in an Israeli

03:32

air strike in Gaza our own prime

03:35

minister Anthony albanesi has uh also

03:38

conveyed his outrage the death of an

03:40

Australian Aid worker um Israel has

03:43

admitted that the deaths of the seven

03:45

workers uh was a mistake that followed a

03:49

misidentification army how is this story

03:52

being treated in the US and what do you

03:55

make of the claims from uh Pro

03:58

Palestinian activists that this was

04:00

nothing out of the ordinary and Israel

04:02

is is reckless in selecting its

04:06

Targets this is so gross so disgusting

04:10

first of all this a organization which

04:11

is led by Jose Andreas a famous

04:13

celebrity chef um has been working hand

04:16

in glove with Israel in fact it's

04:18

another example of Israel trying to get

04:20

Aid into Gaza working with this

04:22

organization uh in order to do that they

04:25

work very closely with them the the

04:26

Israelis are heartbroken over what

04:28

happened but this was clear clearly

04:30

clearly a mistake Israel said it seems

04:33

like a mistake Israel's investigating it

04:35

Hamas doesn't investigate attack on

04:38

civilians because that's their entire

04:39

basis of operation that's their MO of

04:41

operandi when Israel doesn't they call

04:43

for investigations look understand

04:45

something one of all Israeli soldiers

04:49

have been killed by Friendly Fire one of

04:51

the most famous incidents Israel even

04:53

killed their own hostages because when

04:54

you're in war this is what happened this

04:57

is not a war that Israel started this

04:59

war that was put upon Israel by Hamas

05:02

they're reacting to Hamas barbarity and

05:05

atrocities and guess what happens when

05:07

that that when that occurs there is

05:09

examples of civilians being killed by

05:12

accident this is a perfect example of

05:14

that but Joe Biden knows that they are

05:17

he is deliberately trying to

05:19

misinterpret the truth because he's

05:21

using it as a cudle against Israel in

05:23

order to push his gross disgusting

05:26

ceasefire that calls on Israel to stop

05:29

prosec war against Hamas without the

05:32

hostages being released in total this is

05:35

what we're seeing here this is why the

05:37

foe outrage by the administration and

05:40

the fake outrage by the news media

05:42

outlets around America and around the

05:46

world now Joe Biden's climate agenda has

05:49

been dealt a big blow after a federal

05:52

district court overturned a rule that

05:54

required states to track and set

05:57

reduction goals for greenhouse gas

05:59

emissions from vehicles on highways Army

06:02

how big is this issue in the coming

06:05

presidential election is climate change

06:07

going to be a top tier issue or is a

06:11

rank relatively low when you're talking

06:13

about cost of living the Border crisis

06:15

and and inflation all the all the issues

06:18

that are uh US cities are grappling

06:22

with climate change oh come on nobody

06:25

cares about right now about climate

06:27

change considering all the things you

06:28

just listed look I'll tell you what's

06:30

two things that's really interesting

06:31

about this first of all it's it's the

06:33

okay yes there are there are issues

06:35

involved interesting issues involved in

06:38

terms of uh federalism and state rights

06:40

versus Federal rights we've been dealing

06:42

with this issue a lot now with this

06:43

administration because Administration is

06:44

trying to push Federal agendas onto

06:47

States we talked about the border with

06:48

Texas there another example of that so

06:50

that on itself is is an interesting

06:52

Dynamic um constitutional issue that I

06:55

think it's important to deal with but

06:57

frankly Rita it just shows you how tonee

07:00

this President is never mind that the

07:02

issue isn't climate change in terms of

07:04

what voters care about voters are

07:06

looking at inflation in particular the

07:09

rise in cost of gas prices yet what he's

07:13

is he doing he's trying to push a

07:15

legislation a regulation from the

07:17

federal government that will do nothing

07:19

but continue to push up gas prices at a

07:22

time where that's what people care about

07:24

climate change isn't the number one

07:26

issue but inflation certainly is but he

07:28

is so T this this is why he's he's so

07:31

bad really he's so bad at this this is

07:33

why he's losing to he's losing to Donald

07:36

Trump right he's getting killed because

07:38

he's pushing stupid things that people

07:40

don't care about the things they do care

07:42

about he's making it worse for
