Most of these countries are low interest rate paying cash machines, thought of as elegant, solid, and prime, only because the U.S.A. allows them to be. The Tariffs being charged to them, while bringing in $BILLIONS to us, still allows most of them to have a significant trade surplus, though much smaller, with our beautiful, formerly abused Country. In other words, I have been very nice, kind, and gentle to countries all over the World. With a mere flip of the pen, $BILLIONS more would come into the U.S.A., and these countries would have to go back to making money the old fashioned way, not on the back of America. I hope they all appreciate, although many don't, what our great Country has done for them. The Fed should substantially lower interest rates, NOW! Tariffs have made America strong and powerful again, far stronger and more powerful than any other Nation. Commensurate with this strength, both financial and otherwise, WE SHOULD BE PAYING LOWER INTEREST RATES THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP https://twitter.com/JoeLang51440671/status/2016559031574311138?s=20 https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/2016890828925313192?s=20  TRIPLED since Q4 2019, driven by aggressive purchases by central banks and rising prices. Over this period, central banks have added ~4,500 tonnes of gold, including unreported purchases. At the same time, foreign Treasury holdings have remained unchanged. Gold is redefining the global monetary system. Central banks maintain FX reserves—typically a mix of currencies, bonds, and assets like gold—to stabilize their currencies, manage liquidity, and hedge against economic shocks. U.S. Treasuries have long been the go-to asset because they’re considered ultra-safe, highly liquid, and backed by the world’s dominant reserve currency (the U.S. dollar, which still accounts for about 57% of global reserves). Gold, on the other hand, is a “neutral” asset: it’s not tied to any single government’s policies, can’t be printed at will, and serves as a hedge against inflation, currency debasement, and geopolitical risks.This crossover isn’t just a blip—it’s a structural change driven by several factors: Key Driver Explanation Impact Geopolitical Tensions and Sanctions Events like the Russia-Ukraine war (leading to frozen Russian assets) and U.S. actions (e.g., tariffs, interventions in Venezuela) have eroded trust in dollar-denominated assets. Countries fear their reserves could be seized or devalued overnight. theguardian.com Accelerates “de-dollarization” efforts, especially among BRICS nations (e.g., China, Russia, India), which now buy gold at 3–5 times pre-2022 levels, averaging 60 tons per month. finance.yahoo.com Gold’s share in reserves has doubled to over 25% in the past decade. newsmax.com Rising Gold Prices and Diversification Gold’s price surge (up 70% in 2025 alone) mechanically boosts its reserve value, but central banks are actively adding to holdings rather than selling Treasuries outright. mining.com This reflects a pivot away from U.S. debt amid concerns over America’s $35+ trillion national debt, persistent inflation, and fiscal policies under the Trump administration. fundssociety.com Gold is now the second-largest reserve asset after the dollar (overtaking the euro in 2024), signaling a re-regionalization of global finance where gold absorbs outflows from U.S. bonds. lfde.com The gold and U.S. debt markets are similarly sized (~$25–30 trillion each), making this shift feasible without massive disruptions. Central Bank Strategy Emerging market central banks (e.g., People’s Bank of China, Central Bank of Russia) are prioritizing gold for stability in a multipolar world, while developed banks hold steady. americanhartfordgold.com Net purchases hit 1,000+ tonnes in 2025, with forecasts for similar levels in 2026. gold.org Could push gold prices higher—analysts at Goldman Sachs see $5,400/oz by end-2026, while extreme scenarios (full USD reserve loss) speculate $39,000–$184,000/oz if gold backs global money supply. vaneck.com This isn’t about ditching the dollar entirely but reducing over-reliance.   If trends continue, it could lead to sustained gold demand, higher prices, and a more fragmented international financial landscape.

The bloc’s top diplomat Kaja Kallas said EU foreign ministers took the “decisive step” because “repression cannot go unanswered”. She said ahead of the decision that the move would put the IRGC – a major military, economic and political force in Iran – on the same level as jihadist groups like al-Qaeda and the Islamic State group.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they weigh in on EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin blasting Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for their incompetence concerning the California wildfires, housing officials repeating the mistakes that led to the 2008 financial crisis, and Michigan's “Mamdani” trying to erase his radical record.First, they applaud Zeldin for imploring Newsom and Bass to get to work to help people rebuild after the wildfires. Jim notes that less than one percent of those who lost homes or businesses have received permits to rebuild, even after nearly a year. They also consider how this glaring failure could hurt Newsom's presidential ambitions.Next, they facepalm as Fannie Mae removes a minimum credit score needed to be approved for housing loans. Yes, buying a home is really tough for a lot of people right now, but Jim and Greg recall how giving mortgages to people who clearly could not afford them led to economic disaster just 17 years ago.Finally, they highlight Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abu El-Sayed deleting past anti-police and anti-border agent posts in an attempt to hide his radical views. El-Sayed once called police “standing armies we deploy against our own people” and smeared border agents as “white supremacists.” El-Sayed is very competitive in a three-candidate race for the party's nomination.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 10% off your first month of BetterHelp by visiting https://BetterHelp.com/3ML today!OneSkin uses the patented OS-01 Peptide™ designed to keep skin healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has once again turned the truth on its head. In a stunning move, she’s calling for an investigation into ICE agents. She is accusing them of detaining American citizens. But here’s the reality, Bass refuses to admit these so-called “citizens” were obstructing lawful ICE operations and breaking federal law. Instead of standing with law enforcement, Bass is siding with the very people undermining our immigration system. Plus, in a Stinchfield Exclusive, Grant reveals shocking intelligence that Mexican drug cartel boats are landing along the Southern California coast. Stinchfield is calling on President Trump to expand his strategy of targeting cartel vessels in the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific. The drug boats being run by the cartels need to be targeted the same way as the drug boats from Venezuela and Columbia.

Fourteen hundred years prove it, Sharia does not knock, it takes.   Post Bob @Shariakill Everywhere Islam gain power, Civilization collapse   Reactionary, Neo-Confederate Portland 16 Comments / October 6, 2025 Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness In blue cities across America—Portland, Oregon, especially—often violent protesters now seek to surround ICE facilities to stop federal officers from fulfilling their assigned and legal duties of arresting illegal aliens. Some 10 million or more illegal aliens were allowed to enter the U.S. during the Biden years—illegally and thus without criminal or health checks. Neither Antifa nor liberal urban America objected to such a flagrant disregard for the law. But both are now as intent on obstructing the legal enforcement of the law as they were earlier in favor of its illegal non-enforcement. Much less did they care about the consequences of sending millions of foreign nationals into cities and counties where they swamped social services, spiked crime, and flooded emergency rooms and schools. ICE has repeatedly presented data that show in its first rounds of deportations, it is concentrating on removing either criminal illegal aliens or those who have already been processed with deportation orders, somewhere between 70 and 90 percent of all current apprehensions. No matter. Left-wing protesters are swarming ICE headquarters in Portland to violently oppose all deportations, even those of known criminals and those who have already exhausted efforts to remain here illegally. Why? The Democratic Party apparat knows that the public wants both secure borders and deportations of illegal aliens. Indeed, in part, it lost an election by its open-borders advocacy. But Democrat officials feel that if street thugs like Antifa can surround and besiege ICE facilities in Portland, Oregon, then deportations will stop. Then, a de facto amnesty will follow for millions who entered the U.S. illegally—and will soon become Democratic constituents. As a result, they do not fully enforce the law when thugs attack federal law enforcement. Antifa and its spin-off groups favor the night, when they try to block all entries and exits of ICE vehicles and personnel, and can commit their violence with greater anonymity. The masked rioters assault anyone in their way. They count on exemption from punishment for committing violence against federal officers through the goodwill or indifference of kindred local and state officials who hate the Trump administration more than they respect the law. An Orwellian scenario follows in which federal officers are attacked by Antifa, which in turn counts on the non-intervention of local police. Summed up: the city of Portland's armed officers are in a de facto proxy war with their federal counterparts—in our version of something out of 1860, on the eve of a real civil war. Portland Mayor Keith Wilson and Oregon Governor Tina Kotek feel their constituents want open borders and thus should have the right in their own city and state to do as they please—and federal law be damned. But by doing so, both the Democrat Party officialdom and the street armies of Antifa are on the proverbial wrong side of history. America for almost 200 years has already decided, in formal law and court rulings, that no local or state entity can disrupt the enforcement of federal laws or usurp Washington's powers. To do so with impunity would unravel the American nation in short order. We know that from our own violent history. Andrew Jackson, in 1832, like Trump, threatened to send troops to stop South Carolina's nullification of federal tariff laws. America fought a Civil War over Confederate states' efforts to ignore federal law and confiscate or occupy federal property within their state jurisdictions. As late as 1963, Alabama Governor George Wallace thought he could nullify federal law by using his state guard to deny black students' enrollment in the University of Alabama—until the Kennedy administration federalized all state troopers and sent in additional federal troops. So what we are witnessing in Portland—and elsewhere—is a neo-Confederate attempt to supersede federal law and, in reactionary fashion, invoke states' and cities' rights. Oregon and Portland believe that they are more moral than the federal government and thus have a natural right to side with street mobs by both not enforcing their own laws against Antifa violence and ignoring the innate civil rights of ICE personnel. The latter are denied freedom of movement, association, and the ability to fulfill their job duties by what has turned out to be a near city-sanctioned siege of their facilities. The Democrats are fine with all this. They think the violence against ICE will be portrayed daily as general chaos by their allied media. Thus, the proverbial people who keep clear of the siege and its detritus will simply want all the bother to go away—and supposedly blame those enforcing, not breaking, the law. In sum, the Democratic Party is the official face of the left. Antifa provides the street shock troops, and the media serves as its propaganda arm. So, the left-wing logic is to allow the violence and siege to continue in a “safe space” for Antifa. A strapped ICE will supposedly eventually shut down operations and move on. And any violence that occurs can be chalked up to Trump's federal government “baiting” Portlanders. The reigning moralistic assumption is that ceding territory to terrorists, not enforcing local and state laws, and nullifying federal statutes are all small prices to pay for the larger projection of chaos and violence that can be blamed on Trump. Such thinking entails utter indifference to any Portlanders who live near the siege and are nightly subjected to constant disruptions, harassment, and occasional violence. Do these law-abiding residents have fewer civil rights than the lawbreaking armies of the night? In contrast, the use of federal troops to stop the siege of ICE facilities will remind the violent protesters of the left that their neo-Confederate tactics will not work, but instead subject them to arrest and federal indictments. Bringing in federal forces to uphold the law will also protect the rights of ICE personnel and neighborhood residents to live in peace and security and have their constitutional protections secured. Not all American citizens are Portlanders, but all Portland citizens are Americans. In other words, both Antifa and the appeasing Oregon officials are our new neo-Confederate secessionists. They feel that their states are now autonomous entities that are still entitled to federal money but not obligated to follow federal laws. Portland also reminds us of the recent utter incoherence of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. On the one hand, she pleads for federal dollars to restore her city's burned-out neighborhoods due to her own incompetence and neglect, while on the other hand actively obstructs the federal government from enforcing immigration laws in her own city. For a party that has been quick to shout “insurrection,” it is ironic that Democrats and their useful, though violent, Antifa insurrectionists are in rebellion against the federal government and its agents. It is hard to know which is worse—the Antifa thug who nightly tries to injure a federal officer, or the sanctimonious neo-Confederate official who empowers him to keep trying?

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Code Switching Clay and Buck dive into the political and cultural landscape shaping the first fall of the Trump 2.0 presidency, highlighting the ongoing resistance from federal judges against the administration’s policies. The hosts criticize what they describe as partisan judicial activism, particularly rulings that attempt to block President Trump’s constitutional authority—such as deploying the National Guard in Los Angeles during immigration-related unrest. They emphasize how these decisions are often overturned by higher courts, including the Supreme Court, reinforcing Trump’s legal standing. The show also covers a controversial case involving 76 unaccompanied Guatemalan children who were blocked from being reunited with their families in Guatemala by a federal judge. Clay and Buck frame this as an example of how judicial overreach is obstructing humanitarian efforts and immigration reform under Trump 2.0. Call in the Guard! A deep dive into the escalating crisis of urban crime in America, with a sharp focus on cities like Chicago, Washington D.C., and Memphis. They highlight the Trump administration’s proactive stance on law and order, praising President Trump’s efforts to reduce violent crime and carjackings while exposing the political resistance from Democrat leaders who, they argue, are failing to protect their constituents. The conversation centers around the staggering statistic that 50 people were shot in Chicago over Labor Day weekend, prompting Clay and Buck to question why Democratic officials like Mayor Brandon Johnson oppose federal assistance, including National Guard deployment, to restore safety. They contrast Johnson’s slogan-heavy rhetoric with more pragmatic voices like Morning Joe’s Joe Scarborough, who surprisingly called for bipartisan cooperation with Trump to address crime in Illinois. The hosts also revisit the controversial remarks of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, who suggested that increased policing would lead to too many arrests of black and brown individuals. Clay and Buck challenge this logic, emphasizing that the real victims of unchecked crime are often minorities living in high-crime neighborhoods. They argue that the true measure of safety is whether women and children can walk or jog freely in their communities without fear. Commie Mamdani The New York City mayoral race, scrutinizing the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani, a self-described democratic socialist. They dissect the New York Times’ attempt to downplay his ideology and warn that his proposed policies—like government-run grocery stores—could devastate the city’s economy and infrastructure. The hosts debate whether Mamdani is a true ideologue or simply an inexperienced politician who may struggle to implement his radical agenda. The segment also includes reflections on past NYC mayors like Rudy Giuliani, Michael Bloomberg, and Bill de Blasio, comparing their leadership styles and impact on crime. Clay and Buck argue that Bloomberg’s business acumen and Giuliani’s law enforcement background made them effective leaders, while de Blasio’s progressive policies contributed to the city’s decline. Doesn't Have to be This Way Clay and Buck scrutinize Chicago’s violent crime epidemic, where Governor JB Pritzker dodges questions about the city’s safety following a weekend of 54 shootings and 7 deaths. Clay and Buck argue that President Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Washington D.C. has proven effective, and they challenge Democrats to explain their resistance to similar measures in cities like Memphis, St. Louis, and New Orleans. The hosts dissect Mayor Brandon Johnson’s inflammatory rhetoric, including his call for citizens to “defend the land” against Trump’s law enforcement efforts. Clay and Buck criticize this as dangerous and historically inaccurate, noting that Chicago was not built by slaves or indigenous people, and that invoking such narratives undermines real solutions to crime. They emphasize the psychological deterrent effect of visible law enforcement and the success of plainclothes policing units in cities like New York. The conversation shifts to the broader political implications of Trump’s crime-fighting strategy, highlighting how Democrats are increasingly boxed into defending the indefensible. Clay and Buck argue that Trump’s actions are saving lives, even if those lives can’t be individually identified, and they call out the hypocrisy of Democrats who welcomed National Guard troops during COVID but now oppose them for public safety.

The host discusses a dramatic confrontation in Los Angeles where ICE agents conducted a law enforcement operation just outside a press conference held by California Governor Gavin Newsom. The host argues this was a deliberate and symbolic act to challenge the "dual justice system" and the notion that laws do not apply to Democrats and those they protect, specifically undocumented immigrants. The segment includes audio clips from Governor Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, and a DHS spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin, who confirms the arrests of violent criminals, including pedophiles and gang members. The host highlights the hypocrisy of Democratic officials who express outrage over the arrests of these criminals, and the segment concludes by celebrating the Trump administration's efforts to end sanctuary city policies and enforce federal law, much to the dismay of the "outraged" Democratic leadership

On this episode of ABL Live, we covered a variety of topics, including the dispute over crime in Washington DC as President Trump has initiated a federal takeover of DC police, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass blames ICE for the economic downturn in the city, the Kanas City city-funded grocery store (akin to what Zohran Mamdani wants for New York City if he becomes Mayor) finally closing after consistent underperformance, and much more!

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass talks about immigration raids, homelessness, the Olympics and more, while Elex make an announcement about The Issue Is.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they react to President Trump's firm opposition to a Palestinian state, a deeply disappointing July jobs report, and more glaring incompetence from Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and former Vice President Kamala Harris.First, they applaud Trump for refusing to follow France, Great Britain, and Canada in announcing their support for a Palestinian state. Trump says would be rewarding Hamas for its atrocities against Israel and beyond. Jim and Greg also explain why calls for establishing a Palestinian state with Mahmoud Abbas and Palestinian Authority is a horrible idea.Next, they shake their heads at the July jobs report, which shows just 73,000 jobs added, a number far below expectations. Making matters worse, numbers from May and June were revised down by more than 250,000. Jim suggests tariffs may be hurting job creation, and both he and Greg warn against using tariff revenues to send us all checks.Finally, they roll their eyes as Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass says the withdrawal of more National Guard personnel means they are in "retreat." Bass also cluelessly says he wants all military out of LA. Jim and Greg remind you that Bass was on Joe Biden's short list for vice president in 2020. Ultimately, that not went to Kamala Harris, who proved again on national television Thursday night, that she has no business being anywhere near the Oval Office.Please visit our great sponsors:No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass faced tough questions on ABC's This Week about whether all illegal immigrants in LA should be allowed to stay. With federal troops and ICE raids sparking outrage across the city, Mayor Bass avoided giving a clear "yes or no" answer—highlighting the vital role undocumented immigrants play in LA's economy and the need for federal immigration reform.

This week on Face the Nation, the clock ticks as tariff deadlines loom. The Trump administration promised 90 deals in 90 days, but that didn't happen and if the goalposts move again, will Americans face a summer price hike as steep tariffs kick in? We ask one of the key negotiators, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Plus, we take a look at the unfolding battle over interest rates with Democratic Congressman Jim Himes, who sits on the House Financial Services Committee. Then, as ICE ramps up deportation efforts, we sit down with Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons to discuss the latest at the agency and the criticisms of its enforcement policies. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass also weighs in and discusses the impact of those ICE arrests in her city. Finally, as the administration crosses a key milestone, we check in with CBS News Executive Director of Elections and Surveys Anthony Salvanto on what Americans think of President Trump's first six months in office.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has launched an emergency cash assistance program for immigrant families impacted by recent ICE raids. The initiative, funded entirely by private donors, provides direct financial relief through prepaid cash cards distributed by local immigrant-rights groups.

The National Security Hour with Col. John Mills Ret. – Somewhere along the line, emergency response became weaponized by the Blue Government. DEI crept in and poisoned the emergency management culture.

On this episode of ABL Live, we covered a variety of topics, including ICE agents raiding a weed farm in California, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass offering migrants affected by ICE raids cash payments better known as reparations, Trump's battle with the courts over the issue of birthright citizenship, and much more!

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, there are reports in the media about divisions among President Trump's supporters over topics such as policy toward Iran, amnesty for farmers (which did not occur), a Jeffrey Epstein list, and aid to Ukraine. Commentators and influencers exaggerate controversies for attention, views, or subscriptions, including unsubstantiated assertions about an Epstein list, involvement of Mossad, or the nature of Epstein's death, officially ruled a suicide by two Attorneys General. They are opportunistic, lacking character, and ignoring broader threats like actions by China, Russia, North Korea, domestic unrest, and antisemitism.  Those of us who support President Trump are not going to abandon him on his mission to save this country and his policies. Also, there's a battle for America's future taking place right now in New York City and Los Angeles. Democrats in LA are demonizing ICE agents, promoting sanctuary cities as a new confederacy defying federal immigration law, and pursuing open borders to flood the U.S. with illegal immigrants, ignoring crimes, human trafficking, and the disappearance of women and unaccompanied minors. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass a new Confederate for leading a sanctuary city that nullifies federal immigration laws. Federal ICE agents raided a marijuana farm, where agents, armed with a warrant based on probable cause of crimes, discovered 10 children engaged in illegal labor.  Democrats, including Bass, are now defending criminal child labor violations. In NYC, they might install a Marxist Islamist as mayor to dismantle capitalism. If Andrew Cuomo, Eric Adams and Curtis Sliwa stay in the race – Mamdani wins. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we're wrapping up our eight-part series by exploring how labor and economic justice nonprofits can advance their missions through advocacy. We'll cover recent developments and examine both lobbying and non-lobbying strategies that advocates are using to improve economic justice for all.   Attorneys for this episode   Tim Mooney Susan Finkle Sourlis Sarah Efthymiou   Shownotes Current Events / Executive Orders ·      Trump Administration Directives Impacting Workers o   In March, President Trump issued an executive order exempting national security agencies from the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978. The EO revokes collective bargaining rights for over a million federal workers, hindering their ability to organize and improve working conditions. o   In January 2025, an executive order paused the planned increase of the minimum wage for federal contract workers to $17/hour, reversing wage gains for thousands of low-wage employees. o   In March 2025, another executive order directed the Department of Labor to halt enforcement of protections against misclassification for independent contractors, adopting a worker-unfriendly test that limits employee eligibility for wage and hour protections. ·      Illegal ICE & DHS workplace raids: ICE, racing to fulfill the Trump Administration's goal to increase deportations, is increasingly targeting work sites for immigration sweeps in LA and other major cities. In addition to loss of essential income for workers who are afraid to show up for work, this escalation is a chilling effect on businesses and local communities. Non-lobbying Advocacy Advocacy can take many forms, and lobbying is just one form. Your organization can engage in non-lobbying activities like: Organizing, educating the public, conducting research, executive branch and regulatory activities, training and litigation are just a few examples.   ·      Educating the Public o   Nonprofits that support immigrant workers, such as The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA), are sharing "know your rights” info, so workers are better prepared if stopped by immigration officials. Other groups provide information for employers, such as the National Employment Law Project's What to do if Immigration Comes to Your Workplace. ·      Identify & advocate to supportive government officials: o   Find your allies in government and encourage them to continue to defend their communities. Many nonprofits have lauded Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass' and California Governor Gavin Newsom's public criticism of the federal government's actions in LA, describing the deployment of military forces to the city as an overreach and a violation of state sovereignty. ·      Holding a Rally o   In February, federal workers organized coordinated “Save Our Services Day of Action” events in multiple cities to build a broader network of support and to put pressure on the administration and Congress to block the illegal firing of fed workers ·      Litigation as Advocacy o   A multi-state coalition of nonprofits, unions, and local governments sued the Trump Administration over mass layoffs of federal workers without approval of Congress. Lobbying ·      Pro-Worker Legislation o   Nevada's state legislature is currently considering expanding their existing Paid Family & Medical Leave program beyond state employees ·      Ballot Initiatives Coming on the heels of several key wins in 2024 (Alaska, Missouri, and AZ), already seeing upcoming ballot measures o   A potential Ohio Nov 2025 ballot initiative to increase minimum wage to $15/hour; and Oklahoma qualified June 2026 ballot measure to increase the state's minimum wage to $15/hour Resources ·      Power & Equity: The Advocacy Playbook for Labor and Economic Justice ·      Practical Guidance: What your nonprofit needs to know about lobbying in your state ·      Investing in Change: A Funder's Guide to Supporting Advocacy ·      What is Advocacy? 2.0 ·      Seize the Initiative

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Supply and Demand is a Real Thing President Trump's cabinet meeting addresses a range of topics, including the devastating Texas floods, economic developments, and border security. The hosts highlight the Trump administration’s claim that tariffs have generated over $100 billion in revenue, with projections of $300 billion more, challenging mainstream narratives about inflation and price hikes. The discussion transitions into immigration enforcement, spotlighting Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass’s opposition to ICE operations in MacArthur Park. Clay and Buck critique sanctuary city policies and explore the broader economic impact of illegal immigration on housing costs, emergency room usage, and labor markets. They argue that removing illegal immigrants could lower rent prices and reduce strain on public services, reinforcing conservative immigration stances. Salena Zito Recalls Butler Journalist Salena Zito joins the show to discuss her new book, "Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America’s Heartland." Zito recounts her firsthand experience at the rally where Trump was shot in the ear, describing the chaos, the president’s resolve, and the symbolic power of his raised fist. She reflects on how the event transformed Trump’s sense of purpose and galvanized support across the political spectrum. The hosts predict that Trump’s reaction in Butler will become an iconic moment in American history, likening it to Lincoln at Gettysburg. Energy Secretary Chris Wright Fresh out of President Trump's cabinet meeting, Energy Secretary Chris Wright joins the show to outline the Trump administration’s “Make Energy Great Again” (MEGA) strategy. This includes ending half a trillion dollars in federal subsidies for wind, solar, and electric vehicles, which Wright argues have destabilized the power grid and driven up electricity costs. He emphasizes a return to fossil fuel production on federal lands, streamlined permitting, and targeted tax credits for next-generation nuclear, geothermal, and hydroelectric technologies. The conversation shifts to the affordability of gasoline, with Wright noting a 25–30 cent per gallon drop in prices over the past year despite global instability. He attributes this to increased domestic production and a shift in Middle East dynamics, particularly regarding Iran. The hosts and Wright also explore the urgent need for massive energy infrastructure expansion to meet the exponential power demands of AI technologies, warning of a looming 200-gigawatt shortfall if current coal plant closures proceed without adequate replacement.

Vice President JD Vance attacked California's top Democrats during a visit to Los Angeles on Friday, accusing them of encouraging violent protesters, and even misnaming California Sen. Alex Padilla, calling him “Jose." made a whirlwind visit and left behind a political firestorm. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass joins The Weekend to discuss the impact of the military's presence and the ICE raids being conducted throughout the city. California Congressman Ro Khanna also joins The Weekend to talk about how lawmakers from both sides of the aisle are working to limit Trump's authority to unilaterally involve the U.S. in the Middle-East conflict between Iran and Israel.

A federal appeals court will decide if President Donald Trump's deployment of National Guard troops to Los Angeles in response to anti-immigration raid protests will continue.

Join Jim and Greg for this Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they examine President Trump's intensifying pressure on Iran, the curious absence of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard from a key national security meeting prior to recent Israeli military action, and what Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass inadvertently revealed during her comments about immigrants in LA.First, they discuss President Trump's choice to cut his visit to the G7 summit unexpectedly short. Afterward, he issued several social media posts putting Iran's feet to the fire. They discuss Trump's consistency on refusing to allow Iran to have nuclear weapons and consider precisely what assistance he's willing to provide to Israel.Next, they wonder why Tulsi Gabbard did not attend the recent national security meeting at Camp David just days before Israel launched pre-emptive strikes inside Iran. Was she not invited? Did she choose not to come? And does this explain her cryptic video about being on the brink of nuclear annihilation just days later?Finally, they shake their heads again as Mayor Bass says much of the city's economy would suffer without immigrants. Of course, she won't distinguish between legal and illegal immigrants. She reveals the stark truth that California's economy functions on the backs of exploited illegal immigrants, leaving Jim and Greg to wonder how anyone could support her as mayor.Please visit our great sponsors. No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

On this episode, I spend the entire time talking about the anti-I.C.E. riots in California.  I talk about why they are happening, who's at fault and what's being done about it.  I also have to correct the lies that the Democrats are saying as they blame President Trump when in actuality it is the fault of California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.  The Trump Administration is stepping in to make sure we don't have a repeat of 2020.  -Thanks for listening!- 

You’ve seen the headlines, the news footage, and the online outrage about the ICE raids in LA, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass joins Sophia to give a real-time report on the State of the City.How did a small pocket of unruly protesters in one of the largest populations in America lead to military movement on city streets? Should law-abiding Angelinos be living in fear?Mayor Bass sounds the alarm on the daily departure from due process, and what could be next in the immigration sweeps happening across the country.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join Jim and Greg for Thursday's 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the money trail that might explain Gov. Newsom's reluctance to confront the LA rioters, whether the evacuation of some U.S. personnel and their families means we're on the brink of major conflict in the Middle East, and the staggering incompetence of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.First, they dig into reports suggesting California Gov. Gavin Newsom was uninterested in maintaining order during the recent LA riots because the group sponsoring the protest, the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, contributed nearly half a million dollars and a lot of manpower to help him survive the 2021 recall.Next, they wonder how to interpret the State Department's decision to remove some U.S. personnel and their dependents from Iraq, Kuwait, and Bahrain. Are we on the brink of conflict over Iran's nuclear program or is this simply a move to pressure Iran to accept the U.S. nuclear deal?Finally, they head back to Los Angeles as Mayor Karen Bass continues to ooze incompetence. And she is still blaming the rioting, the looting, and the property destruction on President Trump and his followers. Jim explains how Bass has now badly failed two big tests over the past six months and reminds us that Bass was on Joe Biden's short list for a running mate in 2020.Please visit our great sponsors:Talk it out with Betterhelp.

Things are getting absolutely insane in the LA Riots, troops are sent in Become A Member http://youtube.com/timcastnews/join In response to escalating unrest and riots in Los Angeles following recent ICE immigration enforcement operations, the Trump administration has deployed 700 active-duty Marines from Camp Pendleton to assist in restoring order. This federal intervention supplements the approximately 2,000 National Guard troops already mobilized in the city amid ongoing protests and incidents of violence.  Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass have criticized the deployment. Nevertheless, the Trump administration maintains that decisive federal action is necessary to prevent further disorder and uphold the rule of law.

A full U.S. Marine battalion, comprised of more than 700 Marines, is now mobilized to respond to the deportation protests in Los Angeles. Though Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass have both called for Trump not to use the California National Guard, some of 4000 guardsmen have also been activated. In order for members of the military to make arrests, Trump would need to invoke the Insurrection Act. So far, the military members may be an intimidating show of force against protesters, but they cannot take on law-enforcement duties. Why is Trump crossing this line? We will ask Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist and the author David Cay Johnston.Author Kyra Davis Lurie will stop by. She is a New York Times best selling author and screenwriter.

Join Jim and Greg for this Monday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch where they discuss the riots in Los Angeles, the media's spin on the riots as well as President Trump ordering the National Guard to help, and New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand's hypocritical new plan for putting Democrats back in the majority. First, they are aghast at the general unrest in Los Angeles as ICE agents seek to round up criminal illegal immigrants. Although being just an eight-minute walk from the LAPD, it took two hours for police to respond to the attacks on the Roybal Federal Building. California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, and former VP Kamala Harris all claim overreach by President Trump for sending in the National Guard, but Jim and Greg note how the LAPD initially seemed disinterested in ending the violence. Now the LAPD itself is claiming to be overwhelmed. Next, Jim and Greg disdain the comical media coverage of the ‘mostly peaceful' LA riots. Local and federal sources say people are merely enjoying themselves as they watch fires burn, yet Jim has yet to see them enjoying chocolate and marshmallows around the burning cars. For some reason, Democrats are so afraid of appearing to be Trump supporters that they cannot stand by simple expectations of peace, law, and order. Last, they scoff at Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand's plans to bring Democrats back to power by urging moderate Senate candidates in 2026. She's a strange person to deliver that message after her history of pretending to be a moderate in the House and then immediately becoming a far left U.S. Senator. Jim blithely recalls Gillibrand's pitiful and long forgotten attempt at running for president in 2020. Please visit our great sponsors:Talk it out with Betterhelp.
