State regime media, which calls itself Fox News is in full collapse after Don...

surrender to Iran. After Fox propaganda like Jesse Waters and Laura Ingraham had been telling

their viewers, Donald Trump's never going to back down. Donald Trump will never do a deal like

Obama's JCPOA. Now that Donald Trump is doing a much weaker deal than Obama's JCPOA, Jesse Waters and other Fox propagandists are trying to justify this to their viewers. And they're saying this is exactly what we want to do. Of course, we're going to have to just unfreeze funds and give it to the Iranians. That's very different than what Obama did. No, it isn't. And in fact, Donald Trump's going to unfreeze more funds and have less controls than former President Obama did.

Watch, Jesse Waters right here, as he completely loses it on live TV. Let's play this clip.

The only thing is is that you're going to have to unlock some money. Now, it's not like sending

Palatica show over there like Obama did. It's basically just unfreezing some of their accounts. But that's like peanuts compared to the hundreds of billions of dollars that they've lost, because the sanctions, the blockade, the war, it's absolutely crippled them. So I've got a lot of these guys. The unfreeze, the accounts, I bet they fly to Beijing or fly to Blads neighborhood and just hang out with the mistresses because it's not a safe place to be. It's not a good place to be in

Tehran after all this. Then state regime media, which calls itself Fox, brings in Donald Trump's

national economic advisor, Kevin Hassett, who says actually consumer sentiment has never been

better right now. People are so happy with the war. They're so happy with the way things are going at home. No consumer sentiment is at a historic low. Actually, the worst since the university of Michigan, consumer sentiment poll had been created in 1952. Watch, Kevin Hassett, patheticly lie, here play this clip. That is good to see where specifically the jobs and the

and the buildout is happening. But I mean, is that going to lead us to 6% growth in Kevin?

The last time you and I spoke, you told me that you were expecting GDP growth to go four or five. And then you said north of 6% later this year, once the one conflict wraps up, are you still expecting them? How do you get to north of 6%? Well, I can tell you that if you say, and right now, even the economist magazine, everybody's writing stories about the productivity miracles. And we're seeing productivity numbers unlike anything

we've seen before. That gets you about two and a half percent growth. That's probably under measured. Before you have more inputs, before you have more capital or more labor. And so then the question is how much extra growth you get from building factories? Well, that's actually really clearly in the data we just had March. It was one of the best months ever for capital business orders. And so if you get say one and a half percent of that, then you're

starting even before you get labor's contribution to growth at four. And I think there's been a

little bit of pent up demand because of uncertainty. You see that, for example, when people are worried about energy prices, what are the places that you see it is that they hold up buying a new car because they're not sure whether they want to get the truck that's their dream car, but has low miles per gallon or whether they need to get like the previous sort of hybrid that has high miles per gallon. They're really worried about the cost of gasoline. And what happens is the

purchases of automobiles drop a lot when that happens. And we're seeing that in the data right now. But imagine if this is resolved, people have clarity, they make the decision based on what's best for them. All that kind of pent-up demand is going to be layered on top of the numbers that I talked about. So I really do think you can see a quarter like that. And it's not unprecedented. The last time we saw an economy that looked like this was in the 90s, with all of a sudden the

internet was changing everything. And then Kevin has it says, "But look, I understand that people are worried about prices increasing as a result of refrigerant." That's the big issue that's making prices increase. Crazy policies regarding refrigerators. What are y'all talk? Crazy policies regarding refrigerators? No. It's a direct result of Donald Trump's tariffs against the world and his catastrophic war against Iran. People know where this is coming from and Trump promised that

on day one, you promised acid on day one that you were going to make things so cheap and in fact,

by quarter four during Trump's first year has it. I believe you said we would be booming.

We would be at 6% GDP growth. We barely have any GDP growth right now. Here play this clip. But are you worried about affordability right now? Kevin, I mean, when you look at the price of groceries and insurance and housing and all the rest, a couple months away from the midterms?

Yeah, I mean, absolutely.

like make sure that all the grocery stores aren't closing because of stupid rules about refrigerators.

We've got to do all the above to get prices back down. We are a hundred percent concerned about affordability. But we're doing micro things and macro things to make sure the inflation goes down.

And I think that when you watch how steady core has been, then you see that our efforts are

being successful. Like we could do better going forward, especially we get gas prices down. But inflation is coming down. It's lower than it was with President Trump's office. So that's in the right trajectory. Once we get out of cheap prices, it's going in the right way. And then even Maria Barterone was like, so you think we're going to still head 6% Jane Dain Payne is still going to guarantee that. And then Kevin has to say, yeah, absolutely.

I just think that if you take 2% and you multiply it by 0.22 and you do a 3% and you're going to do it against 6%. Okay. These people are the biggest damn wires that there is. You're playing this clip. That is good to see where specifically the jobs and the and the build out is happening. But I mean, is that going to lead us to 6% growth in Kevin? The last time you and I spoke, you told me that you were expecting GDP growth to go 4.5.

And then you said, north of 6% later this year, once you were on conflict wraps up, are you still expecting them? How do you get to north of 6%. Well, I can tell you that if you say, and right now even the Economist magazine, everybody's writing stories about the productivity miracle. And we're seeing productivity numbers unlike anything we've seen before. And then randomly they start showing photos of like Hassan Piker, like the

Distremor, Hassan Piker, and they're like, we hate this guy. Wow, why do we keep looking at him?

We don't like him. Okay. Why you keep showing images of him then? Like, why do you even talking? You're talking about things that are so disconnected from what the actual experience of the American people right now are who just want their healthcare. They just want to be able to afford a home. They just want to job with dignity. They just want normal sea dammit. You're watching what they say about Hassan Piker, here play this clip.

And am I the only one who, I mean, I'm sick of looking at Hassan Piker, but I can never tell if

it's really him because he just looks like a generic leftist. Every, every leftist dude with a beard, a baseball cap online, I said, is this that guy? Again, I can never tell if it's him. Yeah, they do have a look. I will give you half of her. So then they bring on Democratic Michigan Senate candidate. I'm dual L side who's been on the minus touch network before. And he goes on the cane show, the will cane show. And I guess they

thought, okay, well, here's what we're going to do. We're going to bring up dual L side on and,

you know, will cane's going to do a great interview. Well, no, L side like destroyed will cane, like basically hijacked the show, took over the show and made it his own. This was incredible. Here, watch this. Let's play it. A living wage. I want to make sure that they got a union. I want to make sure I understand those. But you're not asking me that. And when I ask you about whether or not you have the, you actually pump your own gas. You didn't answer the question.

Because you are, I pump my own gas. We don't have any other way to do it in Texas. We don't have any other way to do it in Texas. How would you pay for the last time? How much would you pay for the last time? How much would you pay for your gas last time? I paid a lot. Gas prices are up right now and every mayor has concerned about more. And you, you are not asking me about that. The question is whether or not Americans believe that. Okay. That you keep defending.

You keep talking over each other. We're talking over each other. We're talking over each other consistently. And the reason is is because we're having two separate conversations. Now, listen, you and I both know and I'll tell the audience, I know your positions and I've helped you forward in some of those positions. I know you're opposed to the worn around. I know you're from Medicare for all. And then we'll gain realize very quickly that he was outmatched here

play this clip. So if we want to talk about law enforcement, I would do want to bring up the question about the $1.8 billion Department of Justice piggy bank that Donald Trump wants to hand out to people who clearly broke our laws on January 6. But I asked the question about gas prices because I happened to pump my gas just on Memorial Day. The worst part of my day was having to pay $82.89. Well, I thought about the fact that we lost more than a dozen service members in a

war. We never should have been fighting to raise those gas prices in the first place. You won't

talk about the rule of law. There are missions like opportunities. I appreciate your position. And that was so much of the audience you were opposed to the one around. And you do not like the current. But Mr. Sayon, we have very friendly change last week. No, no, you're not answering my questions. The entire point I would like to ask you. Let me finish my answer. Let me finish my answer. Let me finish my answer. Let me finish my answer. A hundred and eighty five billion dollars for

ice. That's a hundred and eighty five billion dollars that are not being spent to improve anything from your infrastructure to your kid's school or to help you afford your health care.

Gas is just the tip of the iceberg.

opportunity cost of paying a hundred and eighty five billion dollars into an agency that is currently

selling unrest in New Jersey. What is the cost to deny citizenship? More on that right here, Wilcane, not a good idea to bring an else side here. Let's play this clip. She would like to abolish ice. Now what I would like to ask you is, ice is simply the enforcement mechanism for democratically elected laws of the people. Now, for a party who has talked about the threat to democracy, is it your position that you do not

want to see the will of the people, the democratically elected laws enforced?

First of all, will you and I both know that an election law to me. Immigration law is not criminal law. Immigration law is civil law. It's like getting a parker ticket. So the idea that we should have a paramilitary force that is weaponized on our streets to enforce civil law seems to me to be a bit over the top, particularly considering the fact that current president is weaponizing ice against the idea of the rule of law itself. The idea that they should just be covered simply by student

Miller and Donald Trump without any enforcement around basic work law or the constitution itself. That to me is frustrating. Now, I want to pivot just quickly because I do want to ask you, do you pump your own gas? Well, before we start talking about when I pump my own gas, I don't know how long it's important. It's important. I appreciate the interesting having a conversation, but what I suggest is I'm conducting this interview and I want to ask you

about your positions. My interest today is you are running for Senate no excuse me. You are running for Senate in the state of Michigan. What I am curious about as you come down to tour targeted at counties that voted for both Joe Biden and President Donald Trump is exactly how extreme or moderate your positions might be. I'm not running for elected office. So my position on current gas prices is of immaterial to the audience. Your positions as seeking elected office are what's

important. And what I would like to figure out is whether or not you believe in the rule of law

is simply not true that I've always been picky when it comes to seafood. You spend a good

money at the grocery store, bring home some fish, and half the time it just doesn't live up to expectations. So I was really excited to try a wild Alaska company. Wild Alaska company offers

So then they got to bring in another culture war issue, right? And will Kane's like, you know, the giant's quarterback Jackson Dart? Why are we given him so much grief? Why are the people angry that he introduced Donald Trump at a political rally? There's nothing political

about that. So what, we don't get to do that. Only the left gets to do political round. I don't even know what the left gets to do political rallies. You're all canceled. My former client, my business partner Colin Kaepernick because he took a damn knee back

in 2016-2017. You'll remember that. You're a play this clip of a wild Kane saying play this clip.

Okay. Peter newsy. Thank you so much. Coming up, New York Giant's quarterback Jackson Dart is catching heat for introducing the president, proving once again, mixing politics and sports is fine, but only if you do it in one direction from the left. And then wildcane starts reporting about the protests, peaceful protest outside the Delaney Hall concentration camp in New Jersey, where the ice and border patrol Gestapo are keeping immigrants and subhuman

conditions. The immigrants are getting sick. They don't have access to health care. I mean, it is deplorable conditions. Members of Congress are not allowed to enter against the law. We saw the, we saw ice attacking people outside. And so wildcane, though, goes, this is the best health care immigrants have ever received. They should feel blessed and lucky

By what's going on.

detainees are receiving three meals a day, clean water, clothing, bedding, showers, soap,

and toiletries. For many illegal immigrants, this is the best health care they've ever received. It includes medical, dental, mental health services, 24-hour emergency care. This fist. And then the distraction on top of distraction on top of distractions when it comes to this regime, right. They went to war and Iran to distract from the Epstein files. Now they want to distract from the war and Iran. And the Epstein files buy more ice and border patrol invasions. They're back

everybody, Mark Wayne, Mullin, the Department of Homeland Security Secretary who took over that job from Christy Knome says, quote, "We are drawing up the plans right now to shut down international

flights into blue states that we deem quotes sanctuary states or sanctuary cities. We will be blocking

international travel." I mean, I just wanted to stride the economy even more. Are you idiots?

You're playing this clip. We are currently, which we're not an issue yet, but we're currently drawing up plans to say listen to these sanctuary cities where the local radical left Democrats aren't allowing us to do our job and force federal laws. Then we shouldn't be processing international flights into their cities either because they don't want to enforce immigration, but they want us to process immigration at their facilities. Nothing about that makes sense to me.

Let me tell you something, they're eating in a bedding wall breaking. And then he said, the extreme radical Democrats, they were out protesting on Memorial Day. They should be celebrating dammit. Okay. You're playing this clip. It shows where these, you know, extreme radical Democrats

priorities are when they choose Memorial Day of all the days to go out and protest the fact that

we took criminals off the streets. There are priorities lie more with protecting these criminals, which are the worst than it is actually, well, I would say celebrating the sacrifice that men and women across this nation have paid for the freedoms that they have to go out there and

practice their first amendment rights. But why Memorial Day? Then you had James Comer head of the

House oversight committee or soon to be ex head of the House oversight committee and James Comer says, you know, look, everybody, well, we're all real angry about right now is is in California, Newsom. He's given, he's given them prisoners, a tablet. He's given him tablets. That's fraud and abuse. You can't give prisoners tablets. You want to talk about ways to fraud and abuse. Why don't you look at your own dam party and what Donald Trump is doing every single day. You're playing this clip.

Math, but at the end of the day, you think about all the school kids in public school with all of all across America that need tablets. They need material. And in California, Governor Newsom is using tax dollars to provide these tablets for inmates who were communicating and harassing people on the outside. That's a terrible use to tax for their dollars. The inmates aren't even supposed to be communicating with people on the outside. But again, this is another example of liberal leadership

in California about Gavin Newsom and an utter disregard for the American taxpayer. And then state regime media has to go to its next war. The neocons, the war mongers. They crave it. Okay. Donald Trump surrendered to Iran. So who can we go after next Cuba? Let's set up a pretext to invade Cuba. All right. Well, exit Iran. Then we'll invade Cuba. Maybe that'll be

easier than Iran. That's what the Trump regime is thinking and Fox wants to help out. So Fox

invites the Cuban foreign minister on to Fox. And by the way, the Cuban foreign minister just completely outmatches this Fox host. And the Fox host thought there was going to be gotchas with the Cuban foreign minister. But the Fox host is like, so Marco Rubio told me that you possess a national security threat. And the Cuban foreign minister is like, you really think that we done like you think we're going to launch drones in the United States. Like why would we we just

want to exist? Why would we throw drones in the United States? Play this clip. Secretary of State Marco Rubio told me sir on Thursday that the Cuban regime poses a direct national security threat to the United States of America. He mentioned an arsenal of military drones provided to the regime by the Russians by the Chinese. He alluded to reporting in the United States last week

That the Cuban government has even discussed internal and potential plans to ...

targets. Is any of that true? Well, well, just imagine Cuba is a small island 100,000 square kilometers

in 10 million inhabitants. Based on what logic, what would be the common sense behind the idea

that Cuba could threaten nuclear superpower? We will have to ask the Secretary of State if he has any evidence. And then the Fox host is like, all right, all right, I hear you. But let's talk

about Raul Castro. What do you think about the fact that Donald Trump just indicted him?

Pretty powerful move. Pretty good, huh? And then the Cuban fire minister is like, okay, why do you wait third? If this was really a big issue to you, you knew the underlying incident 30 years ago. So why are you doing this right now? Oh, it's just a pretext for war. Watch this. Let's play this clip. Last week, as you know, sort of the Trump administration indicted Raul Castro. This is the same type of decision that was made about Venezuela and leader Nicholas Maduro before the United

States captured him or moved him from the country. Do you have concerns about the United States plotting potential regime change in Cuba? Are you prepared to defend against that militarily? We will have to ask the US government why did it wait for 30 years to do this? We will have to ask what is the ethical of value? What is the legal value behind these allegations right now? Or if this is part of the political narrative in at manipulating the US public opinion to justify a military aggression

against Cuba, Secretary Rubio. And then Fox goes the Fox host goes to the Cuban fire minister. But you're a failing nation. Donald Trump, our fearer, our dear leader says you're a failing nation to which the Cuban fire minister is like, well, right now we're struggling because you're doing a blockade and you're starving our people to death. But if we were really failing, then why would

you need to do a blockade? Wouldn't you just let us fail and just blow up? Wouldn't we not be able

to run the country? So why even do the blockade then? Oh, maybe because the purpose of the blockade is to starve the people to death. Is that why? Watch as the tables are turned to your play, this clip. President Trump over the last week said that Cuba is a failing nation multiple times. What's your response to those comments? If the Cuban state would be an inefficient state and the Cuban economy would not be viable. What would be the use for an executive order

by the President of the United States issued on January 29 declaring a complete energy blockade against

Cuba? What would be the need? Executive order of May the first is establishing secondary

sanctions against all the economic counterparts of Cuba in the world. They have also resorted to military threat, no political difference, no difference between two states, no consideration about the political system or the government of another country could be the reason for a provoking a war or to cause a bloodbath or a humanitarian catastrophe. So not a very good day for state regime media, which calls itself Fox. But you know, when they

have to constantly justify Donald Trump surrender here, surrender there, surrender, surrender,

that's what happens. Let me know what you all think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to seven

million subscribers. We're so close to seven million. Let's get there together. Thanks for watching.
