Lauren Fix says the EV industry was in a bad spot before President Trump took office. She believes his tariff policy and revoking the EV mandate will accelerate deterioration. However, she believes Tesla (TSLA) leads the industry race. Ben Rose agrees when it comes to Tesla but is more optimistic on the future of EVs. He says adoption of electric vehicles will only grow year after year. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Incoming border czar Tom Homan says family detention will likely return under President-elect Donald Trump. ICE is planning to use tent facilities for illegal immigrant families. Homan says families can choose to leave together or face potential separation. However, local resistance could complicate Trump's stricter immigration enforcement. San Diego recently adopted a policy to prevent local jails from cooperating with federal immigration officials.

Lots of fun here.
Welcome to Thursday.
Let's go - 89 days til Election Day!
In the same week that Volkswagen announced a giant investment in electric-vehicle maker Rivian, the brand also reinforced its stance in conventional gasoline-powered vehicles with the unveiling of the newest Volkswagen Golf R and Golf R Variant. The fraternal twins redefine their class with 328 horsepower and the handling chops to leverage it. The new models are the most powerful Golf versions to date. They rocket 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 4.6 seconds (Golf R) and 4.8 seconds (Variant). With the Performance package, top speeds increase to a claimed 167 mph, making these the fastest Volkswagens alongside the Arteon R Shooting Brake that will never see the light of day in America. Both models feature a new front-end design, advanced light systems, 19-inch forged wheels, and an updated infotainment system. In Germany, they come standard with DCC adaptive damping to complement their impressive horsepower. The Golf R Black Edition, with darkened Volkswagen badges and a Performance package, adds more spice to the Golf R lineup. The Golf R Variant combines sports car performance with the practicality of a wagon. Since the debut of the legendary Golf R32 in 2002, the Golf R series has sold over 250,000 units. We'll have more details in the news this week. Also in the news, a global carmaker has delayed the launch of a new, affordable EV in the wake of the Biden Administration's new tariff on Chinese-built electric vehicles. We'll tell you the carmaker, the model and why the decision was made to scrub the launch in this episode, plus our comments. Another important news story concerns the potential ticking timebomb you have in your car. We'll tell you what the danger is and how you can defuse it in this episode. Our special guest is Lauren Fix. You might have seen her on TV or heard her on the radio as The Car Coach. She's terrifically knowledgeable about cars and, like host Jack Nerad, a member of the North American Car of the Year jury. The two share stories about Paul Brian, another jury member and a friend of ours who passed away recently. Brian was a larger-than-life guy, and we're sure you enjoy the tales Lauren has to tell about her longtime on-air partner. In this week's road test segment, Co-Host Chris Teague will evaluate the 2024 Mazda CX30. Its maker calls it a crossover SUV, but Teague and Nerad think another name might be just as appropriate. Both will share their views on the vibrant hatch. Nerad had a far more luxurious assignment this week. He put the 2024 Volvo XC90 Recharge through its paces. The plug-in hybrid happens to be the most performance-oriented version of the Swedish automaker's three-row crossover, bot Nerad and Teague will offer their opinions on it in this episode. America on the Road is brought to you by Driving Today.com, Mercury Insurance, and EMLandsea.com , the publisher of Nerad's latest book, Dance in the Dark, which is available HERE on Amazon.com

3 - Teasing who will be on the show today. The translation tool they were using for John Fetterman was pretty cool, but what he had to say on the Israel-Hamas situation may be even more fascinating. 320 - Running through the “top headlines” of the day. 330 - Mike Rowe, of Dirty Jobs fame among many other things, joins us to discuss his podcast, the rise of trade jobs, the suspicion of the 4-year degree among Gen-Z, and the scholarship program he has been overseeing for trade school attendees. Mike argues we have created a degree lunacy ever since we took shop class out of high school curriculums, and details how things may have to “go splat” in the job market before the giant shift back to trade jobs. And tell us about that whiskey you're selling! Mike Rowe, The Vice President?!? 350 - Rounding up the hour with what's ahead in the show. 4 - Tyler Voigt, Americans for Prosperity-North Carolina State Director, joins us to discuss Bidenomics and the “tailpipe rule.” Mike and Tyler discuss the rush to move to EVs, as Tyler discusses that it is purely a campaign goal to get this done rather than a practical one. Let the market dictate what people will drive! 410 - Have you heard of E-Fuel? 420 - A non-binary Canadian is seeking to add a woman's private parts to supplement his male body parts using taxpayer dollars. Do they have the real estate and funds to properly do this? 430 - Taking your calls. 445 - Today is the anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. Mike discusses where he was at the time of the announcement and displays his admiration for the late reverend. 450 - Taking more of your calls. 4:55 - Antony Blinken is overseas and made a statement about Ukraine and NATO that should be gathering bigger headlines. 5 - Drive @ 5 - “Capitalist Pig” Jonathan Hoenig joins us to discuss why the market fell off a cliff today. Inflation is not coming down, and the job market numbers are being inflated thanks to the sheer number of government jobs being created. Jonathan breaks down multiple facets on why all these economic numbers stay so high and hurt the American consumer. Why does the President continue to lie about the American economy being the best? 520 - Why will the bridge restructuring in Baltimore take so long? Did you know the crew of the ship is still on the vessel? Why do we not have more updates on the matter? 540 - Why are non-violent protesters from January 6th being prosecuted as harshly as the violent ones? 550 - More climate change madness, as NASA has an explanation for why things have been heating up recently and the answer is explosive. Coffee is now a problem as it gives the earth climate issues. 6 - Lauren Fix, The Car Coach kicks off the final hour today as her and Mike discuss just how many people Mike knows. But in other news, insurance companies have been jacking up rates thanks to newer cars collecting your driving data and feeding it back to them. Between this and paying for premiums like heated seats on a monthly basis, it is all a giant money grab by these companies. How old of a car do you need to avoid these pitfalls of technology? 630 - A crane has fallen on a bridge in Fort Lauderdale, what is happening with these bridges? A New Jersey hotel is in hot water for hosting a conference featuring disabled folk but not having any handicap accessible bathrooms. A man has been discharged from the hospital after being the first live human to receive a modified pig kidney in a transplant. 650 - Rounding up today's news stories.

In this interview, car and automotive industry expert Lauren Fix discusses various topics related to the auto industry, including electric vehicles, government control, affordability, extended warranties, and the impacts of the auto industry strike. Takeaways Electric vehicles have improved over the years, but charging infrastructure remains a challenge, and consumers are hesitant to invest in EVs due to limited charging options. Government mandates and pressure to push electric vehicles are driven by control rather than propulsion, and consumers should have the choice to opt for alternative options like hybrids or hydrogen-powered vehicles. Affordability is a significant concern, as the average cost of an electric vehicle is higher than that of a gasoline-powered car, and government incentives and subsidies may not be sustainable in the long run. When considering extended warranties, it is essential to do thorough research and understand the coverage, deductibles, and repair processes offered by different warranty providers. The auto industry strike had significant impacts on the industry, with dealerships struggling to sell electric vehicles and offering discounts to move inventory.

Hour 1 - Mike Opelka in for Rich. It is Mike's first show since having COVID and he details his bout with the illness. Mike runs through the topics of today's show including RFK barefoot on a plane. Has DeSantis shot himself in the foot one too many times? TikTok is being used to distract and indoctrinate by our adversarial countries that may or may not want to see us fail. With Thanksgiving a week away, is it too early for New Years shopping? Hour 2 - Welcome to Liberland! Wait, Mike is the ambassador to a micronation? Nikki Haley wants to end anonymity on the Internet, why would she suggest something as dumb as that? Responding to a caller who did not like the bashing of DeSantis. Oh, what's that? We don't need COVID vaccine to be in the military? Will there be restitution to everybody who were forced out of a position due to their vaccination status? Pink is giving away “banned books” in Florida, but they're not really banned. Taking more of your calls. RFK Jr. was seen barefoot on an airplane coming back from the bathroom. On a commercial flight! Mike happened to stumble into watching an episode of The Daily Show where he saw interim host Leslie Jones go in on him. Joe Biden was speaking at APEC off the Red Bull and Prevagen drip and sounding good… sometimes. The word “vermin” is driving left-wing media attention this week after Trump used it in a speech. Vivek Ramaswamy makes it clear why they do that. Hour 3 - We kick off the commercial-free half hour with Gerald Posner, who joins us to discuss Robert Kennedy, as well as what went down in Israel on October 7th, the spin the war is getting stateside, the hostage situation in Gaza, the JFK assassination, as well as people justifying 9/11 thanks to Osama Bin Laden's letter to America going viral again..They also discuss the moment Gerald's writing pivoted and took off. Lauren Fix, The Car Coach, joins the program to discuss this kill switch that will go into effect in our cars in 2026 and everything happening in the world of automotives. Lauren's interview has struck a nerve and the tweets and calls are flooding in over the car kill switch in 2026. Hour 4 - Dr. Michael Roizen kicks off the final hour to discuss Covid, maintaining mobility for health, cleaning up walkways, downsides of living alone, and the decriminalization of psychedelics and health benefits. Mike plays some audio from protests in Washington D.C. Gordon Chang drops in to give us an update on what actually happened at APEC. Turns out we got a lot of promises, just like last time! How'd that work out? They also discuss unemployment numbers in China and how there isn't an uprising from the youth over lack of work because they just come here to the U.S. to work instead. How many of those migrants are saboteurs? Wrapping up with some Biden corruption as James Comer gives us a save the date!
11-9 podcast with Lauren Fix on GOV'T mandated kill switches in cars by Mike Opelka
Mike hits the headlines, teases tomorrow night's liven show and Lauren Fix the Car Coach pops in to update us on the auto strike and the failure of EVs.
Hour 2: Sue has your Sue's News on National Bologna Day, White Castle's "Flippy II" being rolled out to more stores, and the random fact of the day on college intermural tackle football! Then, Lauren Fix, the Car Coach, joins Joe Beamer, for Mark Reardon, to discuss the ongoing UAW strike.
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: Rich is co-hosting a comedy show at Parx Casino Club 360 tonight—so, Mike Opelka hosts the final hour of the show! At 8pm on Thursday, President Joe Biden will deliver a televised address from the Oval Office. He is expected to discuss the ongoing Israel-Hamas and Russia-Ukraine wars and request additional funding—an estimated $100 billion—be appropriated to support American allies. While polling indicates a vast majority of Americans support funding Israel's attempt to eliminate Hamas, the war in Ukraine isn't viewed quite as favorably—largely due to the Biden Administration's inability to articulate a planned end to the warfare. Lauren Fix—automotive expert and analyst—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the ongoing United Auto Workers (UAW) strike. You can find her work here: https://carcoachreports.com
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (10/19/2023): 3:05pm- The Wall Street Journal reports, “Israel, the U.S. government and independent security experts cast doubt Wednesday on Palestinian claims that an Israeli airstrike was responsible for a deadly explosion at a Gaza hospital compound, saying the preliminary evidence pointed to a local militant group. Independent analysts poring over publicly available images of Tuesday's explosion at Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza and its aftermath say the blast site doesn't bear the hallmarks of a strike with a bomb or missile of the types usually used by Israel….The U.S. has collected ‘high confidence' signals intelligence indicating that the blast at the hospital in Gaza was caused by the militant group Palestinian Islamic Jihad, U.S. officials said, buttressing Israel's contention that it wasn't responsible for the blast.” You can read more from the report from journalists Margherita Stancati, Yaroslav Trofimov, Nancy A. Youssef, and Stephen Kalin here: https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/israel-tries-to-back-up-claims-it-didnt-attack-gaza-hospital-a8cc3405 3:10pm- David Averre of The Daily Mail writes: “Israel's Defence Forces have released a slew of evidence they claim proves an overnight explosion at a Gaza hospital that killed hundreds of people was caused by a misfiring rocket launched by Palestinian Islamic Jihad. In an audio clip procured by Israeli military intelligence, two alleged Hamas terrorists can be heard discussing the explosion and confirming the rocket came from Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) - an independent jihadist group. 'They are saying (the rocket) belongs to Palestinian Islamic Jihad. It's from us?' one alleged Hamas member asks in the clip provided by Israel's military intelligence.” You can read Averre's article here: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12643229/Israel-blast-Gaza-hospital-Palestine-video-rocket-misfire.html 3:20pm- After initially promoting false claims that Israel was responsible for bombing a hospital in Gaza, Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is now walking-back her assertions. In a post on the social media platform X, Omar wrote: “Our office cited an AP report yesterday that the IDF had hit a Baptist hospital in Gaza. Since then, the IDF denied responsibility and the US intelligence assessment is that this was not done by Israel.” 3:30pm- On Thursday, the House of Representatives decided to hold off on a vote to fill the speakership position left vacant following the removal of Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). The Republican nominee for speaker, Rep.
