These GOP Primary Numbers Are Not Favorable...
"Worth watching. And it's But the hard reality is this primary, the numbers right now are not favorable. And they're not favorable because Karl as Rove, who would love him or hate him, wrote the Wall Street Journal this week, you know, Rove has an interest in not getting Trump elected. Rove doesn't like Trump. He just doesn't. It's obvious. I read his stuff in The Wall Street Journal because I want to see what everybody's saying, not just people I agree with. And Rove brought up the point that I I think think it was Rove, but they got to get to Amano Amano. There's got to be like a one on one. If any of these men or women, Nikki Haley, Vivek or DeSantis, who are really the only three contenders seriously left, if any of them are to have a chance, they got to get to a one on one. And there's no reason for any of them to drop out. Folks, put yourself in their shoes. The donor wants one guy or woman. And they think that in a one on one, they've got a shot against Trump. I don't agree. I think Trump right now is kind of running away with it to the point where pluralities and majorities are going to be there in pretty much every state. However, I don't think primaries are a bad thing. And I think a one on one, obviously, math pure would give that person or man a better shot. No diggity, no doubt. The problem is, put yourself in their shoes. If you're Nikki Haley, why are you going to drop out? You're currently running number two in New Hampshire. If you're Nikki Haley, you're in the back room in a smoke filled room with a bunch of donors going, screw that, let that guy drop out, DeSantis. But if you're DeSantis, you're looking at the Haley donors going, well, why would I drop out? I'm number two in Iowa. Right? Well, why not Vivek? Folks, Vivek is worth 100 plus million dollars. Vivek's probably like, you know what? This is an investment in my future. I like politics. I like the Republican brand. I could run again in the future. Why the hell would I drop out? I can finance You gotta remember, man, the

"This is the circle that the IDF has been trying to square now for the last month and a half, and the key question here is political. The driver here is essentially and rather obviously US politics and its interface with the Israeli war cabinet. Now I've no doubt at all that without the constraints that are going to imposed be upon it, and I think they are going to be imposed by that combination, the IDF would succeed in its aim of eliminating the military capacity of Hamas, and put aside for the moment the idea that you can't eliminate, and of course which is to some extent driven on by excessive casualties. But the question is look with the constraints that are going to be imposed which seem to be safe zones for a start, and various then other movements of populations. This is going to be really tricky for the Israelis, and if they are going to ease the, or rather firm up, let's say the rules of engagement to reduce the civilian casualties, the implication now, is absolutely which direct, is that they're going to have to take more on the ground military casualties. And let's see if they have the appetite for that. Were you surprised that the truce wasn't extended further and that we did see it end this morning? No, for two reasons. First of all, it's fragile anyway. Let's not forget that I think it was on Tuesday that three Israelis were murdered in Israel, which didn't go down terribly well, of course. There were attacks on Israeli soldiers in Gaza. And there was a feeling, which I'm sure many listeners may share, that it seems to me that Hamas are finding it difficult to find hostages to exchange. Now, that's speculation on my part. clearly, But also to some extent, this is driven by Israeli politics. The government had to strike a balance between the real pressure from the hostages' families and the pressure to get on with that campaign. In terms of your around expectations US constraints, I mean, if this is so dependent, as you say, simply on US politics, what sort of constraints do you think that the US will impose on Benjamin and Netanyahu the war cabinet? And does it go as far as, I mean, obviously, is the US the largest supplier of weapons to Israel. So their constraints could be very significant. How far do you think the US would go? Optics, I think, of restricting supply of ammunition and other material would be very poor. I think that the US will continue to use the political questions but would continue to rely on the pressure. political On the ground, what they're trying to put in place is safe zones. Now, safe zones have a really bad name in this kind of, or any kind of, contemporary warfare. We don't have to think very far back into the Balkans to see that. And of course, safe zones for civilians, the direct implication which the IDF will be pressing and pressing will also mean, given that the civilian population of the key defensive weapon of the terrorist organisation, Hamas, will imply safe zones for Hamas fighters too. So that's a real dilemma for them. ISIS, look, I haven't got my crystal ball, but I would suspect that we will see a reduction in the rate of civilian casualties, again, blasted really away by putting a horrible thing and an increase in Israeli military casualties. Safe zones, I've got my doubts about that. Would there be a need for some sort of policing of safe zones from a force outside of the Middle East to be able to operate them? understand I your scepticism about the concept. I can't see that happening either. Who would put their forces in the middle of that? You know, the flag was flown over the last month or so of UK, French and US or other Arab nations acting as peacekeeping forces after the conflict. And that flag's been pulled down pretty quickly. We'll see if it goes up again. But the idea of putting any kind of enforcement teams into these areas seems to me a non occur obvious for reasons in the middle of a war. What will Hamas have done during the last few weeks? How much do you think that Israel has managed to destroy tunnels and hit Hamas fighters? What's your expectation around Hamas? Yeah, I think Hamas is seriously damaged in the north operations of Gaza up and there of course are their not complete. Israel's found and destroyed at least 400, well this was the assessment on Monday, 400 tunnel entrances. There are plenty more to be found. The IDF now occupies about a third, I think the last map I saw, of northern Gaza. They're going to into have to go the Jabalia so -called camp or township and there'll be a lot more serious fighting in that area. They're treating that mean grinding down Hamas. Nobody knows what their numbers or strength are. I suspect that's reducing and clearly Hamas was interested in continuing this. To answer the question what Hamas has been doing is, look they've been preparing their booby traps, they've been planning an ambush, has been trying to put together communications again which have been shattered. They will have been trying to cohere some units, also probably many of them shattered, and retain some form of effectiveness as a military force which I think they probably still have. That was Frank Ledwidge, former military intelligence officer and lecturer in strategy now at Portsmouth University, speaking to us earlier this morning about that resumption and violence between Israel and Hamas after the truce of the past week. Now let's check in on some of the stories that our colleagues on the market today live page are following. I Samonstead's think in the studio with us now. It's our favorite subject. Sam, the UK property market, what's the latest? Yeah, house prices up again month on month in the latest nationwide report, third on time in a a monthly basis. Could have a little bit of caution to this. It is good news. I mean, it obviously slightly depends on whether you're buying or selling a house as to whether that's good news or not that property prices are starting to edge back up again. Andrew And yet Bailey tells us no rate cuts are coming. Yes, indeed. And actually, that's probably what's going to keep the market in kind a kind of stasis for a little while, I think any kind of real recovery will take rate cuts to emerge. And until of rapid rapid recovery, but the sort of gloomiest predictions probably aren't going to come true. Meanwhile, we've been following the story about promises from the Prime Minister Ishi Sonak to spend more on climate projects. This announcement coming, of course, is exact COP28. Yeah, and I and I think mostly being with treated a degree of skepticism because of the changes that were made to green policy earlier in the year in the UK, when when you have an industry like this, which is new and needs that kind of predictability in and regulations in government policy, you know, the industry, I don't think is totally convinced by this. But you know, it's certainly a step in the right direction. Can I ask you actually on that point, that what's going on with Sarah's power?

"I've been feeling a bit fatigued over the course of the last couple of weeks. I think it's seasonal allergies, it's catching that cold, it's been traveling a little bit too much, and I just don't bounce back as well as I used to. It's getting older. But the other day, I thought I was around in the corner with a cold. I woke up on Monday not feeling bad, but decided to work from home feeling good, like, okay, I'm going to work on Tuesday. By the time I got up yesterday morning, that fatigue hit me again. No, I didn't sleep well Monday night, Tuesday morning. So I decided to call the doc in the box and see if they could help me out, give me some medication because this cold has turned into a sinus infection, which I normally do. It's the way they've always worked out. Of course, she was telling me I had COVID, or at least she thought I had COVID because I mentioned the word fatigue. Like, seriously? Now, we automatically think just because a person's fatigued, it's COVID. This doctor doesn't know my life. They just think it checks the box. If you're fatigued, you got COVID. But I waited too long, so no need to take a test now. If I plow through it, I plow through it. I just kind of shook my head. You can't just simply have a cold or the flu or even a sinus infection. We've got to blow it up in something more.

"977 information your station. I'm Jeff Potula. You're listening to Northwest News Radio, the nation's largest publisher, suing over Iowa's new law that bans public school libraries and classrooms from having practically any book that depicts sexual activity. Thursday's lawsuit is the second in the past week to challenge the law, which bans books with sexual content all the way through 12th grade. Oddly enough, an exception is allowed for religious texts such as the Bible. Also part of the lawsuit, our Iowa teachers union and best -selling novelist Jody Picolton, John Green. They all say the law violates the U .S. Constitution's free speech rights law went into effect this fall after Republican Governor Kim Reynolds signed it in May. Now here's Kim Shepard. Known as the doomsday cult mom, Lori Vallow Daybell has been moved out of Idaho, transferred to a jail in Phoenix, where she's expected to face more murder charges. She's already serving out three life sentence for murdering her children. ABC's Alex Stone's joining us on the Northwest Newsline with the latest on this one and what are the implications? Yeah, so I mean just to bring you back a little bit, you remember her kids had gone missing, 16 -year -old Haley and 7 -year -old JJ, there was that search for them. She and her new husband Chad, they went on vacation to Hawaii while the kids were missing and then the bodies of the two children were found on Chad Daybell's property in Idaho and prosecutors said that this had all been around that their kids were zombies. So Lori Daybell went on trial. Chad has his trial next year. It is upcoming and Lori was convicted in Idaho and you remember she told the court this? Jesus knows me and Jesus understands me. I mourn with all of you who mourn my children and Tammy. Tammy was Chad Daybell's ex -wife who was murdered also and Lori Daybell was convicted of taking part in that murder as well and in court she didn't apologize for any of it. So those three consecutive life sentences she has been in Idaho, then comes Arizona and in Arizona she's accused of conspiring to kill her fourth husband who was murdered and her niece's ex -husband who was murdered and so now they want to try her in the Phoenix area and today Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone saying his deputies drove to Idaho. They typically would fly in an Arizona state plane but the weather wasn't great so they drove on a very long road trip and they I went don't know if she gave any specific statements related to the investigation but I just know that they Harry Chatty for 18 hours on that road trip with the deputies who drove her back to Arizona and he said they you know kind of planned it like you would any road trip to go and get her playing an extensive road trip that just happens to include bringing back a dangerous fugitive.

"Oh, this past week is America's gathered around their own kitchen tables for Thanksgiving dinner. That was our goal to get them a little more breathing room and together we made progress, you know, from Turkey to air travel, to tank of gas costs went down and went down out of people making a lot of money. That doesn't matter a whole lot because the costs are relatively small compared to wealthy incomes. In fact, as a share of earnings, this Thanksgiving, dinner was the fourth cheapest ever on record. I want you all know that. I look at all the press. Press is particularly excited about that. I can see. Wow. Wow. Oh man. I didn't, uh. The body language is just crazy. He's like, this is the cheapest it's ever been. Yes. It's the cheapest. Like they're literally laughing at us in our faces. Incredible. Yeah. Guys, I did clip one together, but apparently I put the wrong one up here. Let me pull this up real quick and you guys can see the meme at the end of this because I think this is the most important aspect of this is that the mainstream media is not, is literally not even following the party line anymore. And here I have the numbers here. This is the official CPI numbers from the Bureau of labor statistics. As you guys can see, all items allegedly is 3.2% inflation. Food is 3.3% inflation. Energy is down at negative 4.5 inflation and all items minus food and energy is an up 4.7 or 4 point percent inflation. But check this out guys. Here's this little clip here. That is a meme that I guess I put the wrong one up here, but look at this. Even the mainstream media is saying the complete opposite of what the federal government is saying. Even all day season, families are seeing lower prices on everyday items from gas to groceries. Since 2019, that'd be just before the pandemic. The price of Thanksgiving dinner has shot up 25%. In fact, as a share of earnings, this Thanksgiving dinner was the fourth cheapest ever on record. I want you all know that. At the grocery store, shoppers continue to grapple with stubborn inflation. Canned cranberries cost 60% more canned. Pumpkin prices have spiked 30% and russet potatoes are up 14%. Incredible. Sophie, you were going to say something before I cut you off. Yeah, sorry. My bad. Um, even the Bureau of labor statistics debunks this. When a Korean jump here went on and did this press release and they tweeted about it, she actually got community noted with the Bureau of labor statistics.gov statistics. Like you can't make this up. They may, they fund their own statistics and then they tell you something completely different. It's incredible. And look at here, guys, we've got this Bloomberg article here. And again, I think the crazy part is the divide between the corporate press and the federal government. And this headline here is just how bad is the U S cost of living squeeze. We did the math. Here's Bloomberg dropped last night and it goes after years of inflation. U S consumers are shouldering a burden unlike anything seen in decades, even as the pace of prices increases has slowed. It now requires 119.27 cents to buy the same goods and services a family could afford with a hundred dollars before the pandemic. Since early 2020, prices have risen about as much as they had in a full 10 years proceeding the health emergency. It's hard to find an area of a household budget that's been spared. Groceries are up 25% since January, 2020 same with electricity. Used car prices have climbed 35% auto insurance, 33% and rents roughly 20% those figures help explain why America continues to register strong dissatisfaction with the economy. Consumers daily routines have largely returned to their pre pandemic normal, but the cost of living has not. And the government data reports that show easing inflation or cold comfort because they simply indicate prices are growing at a slower pace. Not that they are returning to early 2020 levels. As we always say here, you know, just because you're getting fat at a slower pace, doesn't neglect the fact that you are getting fatter. And this is what the numbers are being shown in regards to inflation. And the federal government keeps coming out and saying like, Hey guys, don't worry about it. You're not getting poor. I'm telling you you're getting poor at a slower pace than you were last year. And, and everyone's like, it doesn't matter. I'm still getting poor. And here I am, I'm using shadow stats.com and you can see at least from shadow stats numbers, the true inflation. And this is a top chart here is based on the 1990 metrics. And you can see, you know, technically the CPI numbers around like 4%, well, based on 1990 metrics, it is double that at 8% or roughly around there. And going further back based on 1980 metrics, it's even higher. It's close to what, like 12, maybe 15%. So I think it's something we say here constantly on the show is you cannot hide the sticker shock of inflation. And again, as Sophie mentioned, Jean-Pierre being community noted by their own metrics. Well, look, I'm over here on Fred, you know, stlouisfed.org. And one of my favorite charts and it just goes to show, and I was going to use price in Bitcoin 21.com, but apparently the site's down this morning. They're having some issues. So even better, I will use the Fed's own numbers to show that life is cheaper on a Bitcoin standard. And for those audio listeners, I'm over here on average price for eggs, but price in Bitcoin. And even if we zoom in here, we'll, we'll zoom in, we'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Let's zoom into a 2020 ish. And life is cheaper on a Bitcoin standard. Hence why we always tell you the only way you can protect yourself is by getting on a Bitcoin standard. If you are saving in Fiat terms, you are getting poorer. This is the facts of the matter. And if you've been saving in Bitcoin for a long-term strategy, life gets significantly cheaper. And this is what we try to tell everyone on the show constantly is that you cannot save in Fiat. You cannot hold dollars. You cannot survive on dollars because they are constantly debasing your money. They're going to continue to print money that can continue to inflate the money supply. The only way to protect yourself is getting on the Bitcoin standard. Guys, it's just, it's very simple. Again, this is not a debate of left versus right. It is orange versus green and inflation is so bad that even mainstream media cannot continue to gaslight and lie to their audience. Yes, the federal government is completely lost in their sauce, completely detached from reality. And they're going to say whatever they want to say to gaslight, the average individual that doesn't have enough time to look into the numbers. But this is why we do what we do on the show is so that we can constantly rebuttal the lies, constantly rebuttal the propaganda. You are getting poorer. And this is what most people don't understand living day to day. My friends and my family don't understand it because you know, $1 seems to be $1. A dollar seems to be stable. But until you get on the Bitcoin standard, you don't see that there is cracks in the system. You can't see behind the veil. And once you see it, you can't unsee it anyway. So you were chiming in, what's your thoughts on all this? My thoughts are that these people are slowly losing the plot and people are waking up. People are finally realizing that they cannot control and contain this narrative. People are starting to finally believe their eyes and ears. They're starting to believe their life, their lived experience. And they're starting to say, Hey, maybe it's not me. There was also another chart that they, the Biden administration released where this is the administration that has created the most amount of jobs. Gee, I wonder why, because you need one, two jobs, maybe a side hustle to survive in this economy. There has literally been no worst time except for maybe the great depression. And even that's debatable because I've seen content creators debunked how like this is, you know, the, the great depression that you, you were in, in, in better times. You, if you do the inflation calculation of how much it used to cost to buy a house versus, you know, how, and how much, uh, your income was compared to today, you will see that these numbers are, are completely different. We really are in dire, dire economic times. And the only way to have some hope for the future is to store your wealth in the hardest money that has ever lived. And this is why this is our mission. This is why we talk about Bitcoin. This is why we advocate for self custody, because it's not just an investment and number go up technology. It's not just going to make you wealthy in the process. You are also going to protest the biggest schemers and theft thieves in the world right now. And that's what we all have to do. We all have to work together to work against them.

Dear Chiefs Podcast
A Young Fire Spouse's Journey With Her Husband's Cancer Diagnosis
"A few episodes back we sat down with Diane Carter and she shared her story of her husband's line of duty, panther diagnosis, and her relentless pursuit of making turnouts safe and just exploring PFAS and all that fun stuff about exposure in the workplace. If you haven't listened to that podcast, we definitely recommend it. And today we actually have another first responder spouse, Brittany San Pedro with us to share her story about her husband's line of duty cancer diagnosis. Brittany, welcome. Thank you for having me. Brittany San Pedro is a speech therapist assistant, wife to a firefighter and a mom. She has been with her husband for 10 years and has an 18 month old and another one on the way. In late October of 2019, Brittany's husband at the age of 30 and 10 years into his career noticed a small lump on his collarbone. After several tests, he was diagnosed with stage two Hodgkin's lymphoma. He was the first line of duty cancer diagnosis in the history of Greeley fire department. Since then, many changes to screening and early detection have been made as a department. As a result, several malignant polyps, skin samples and ultrasound readings have potentially saved the lives of other firefighters within the department. Today, Brittany is sharing her story to help anyone who may feel alone or scared, especially after a health diagnosis. She also wants to encourage change and promote the importance of regular screenings and early detection. Okay. So tell us your story a little bit, the whole thing. We want to hear it. My husband came home one day and just kind of mentioned like, Hey, I got out of the shower at work and I just noticed I had a bump on my collarbone. And he's like, you know, I haven't had my yearly physical. I'm going to go in, have it checked out. And you know, none of us, we weren't really worried. And we were just kind of like, okay, he has a bump. We're going to go check it out. And his general practitioner ran blood work and then started him on antibiotics thinking it was just an infection. His body was fighting something and blood work came back fine. It didn't go down with the antibiotics. At that point, they did an X -ray. Everything looked fine. The blood work looks fine. And his general practitioner asked him what he did for a living. And you know, you fill out that survey, you tell him what you do. And he's like, you know what? We're going to, we're going to keep going. We're going to keep looking. If you're fine with that. You're a firefighter. It just makes me sit better if I, if I keep digging a little bit. And he kept going in for appointments. He then got an ultrasound done. After the ultrasound, he scheduled an appointment for a biopsy to have it looked at. And at this point we hadn't even heard the word cancer yet. I at the time was a special education teacher at a school across the street from the hospital where he was having the biopsy done. He texted me and let me know he was going in. He was super nervous. I let my co -teacher know, Hey, my husband doesn't usually have his feelings out like that. And lets me know that he's there. He's like, that's fine. Go. I ran across the street and he went back. Everything was fine. He came back out and then he just had this look on his face that I'll never forget his eyes started welling up with tears. And I guess the doctor who performed the doctor tech who performed the biopsy, you know, before his doctor had a chance to say anything told him, yeah, this is pretty typical for lymphoma. And both of us were just kind of like, what is happening? What's going on? We were hit by a bus. We didn't even know that this is something that they were looking for. And we called our closest friends, our little mini fire family. And we were like, Hey, we need support tonight. And in a minute, everybody was together at one of our friends house and everybody was just talking trash about the guy who stepped out of his scope of practice and said some things he maybe shouldn't have. And we were like, it's not going to happen. He's too young. He's healthy. There's no way. So a couple of days went by, we got a phone call saying that the doctor wanted us to come in, even though it was his day off and usually not a great sign. So we were a little nervous going in. And then when we sat down, he let us know that they, they did find it to be Hodgkin's lymphoma and that they needed to start figuring out what stage he was at coming up with a plan, trying to figure out everything. And we were both strong until they asked us, you know, are you guys, you guys are young. You guys just got married, just bought a house. Like you, are you guys wanting to start a family at some point? And I just started bawling because I already knew what was coming. And he said, I recommend that you reach out to a fertility specialist, if that's something that you would want to do. And you start reaching out to all your resources. And we did, after that, he started chemo in like less than a week. It was probably like four or five days. And he had chemo, he had it on Christmas. He had it, like he started in November, had it for about six months and then took a little bit of a break and then started radiation. And then after he went through radiation, his end date was March 14th, 2020. And then right after that, the next day the world shut down, but it was just, you know, for us, it was just amazing because he never, we never went to an appointment alone. It was just such a somber time. We were just had this dark cloud of stress and not knowing and anything. And at the same time when it was so dark, such a beautiful thing, because we had the department bringing rigs and down we packed that cancer center and, you know, we had some of his best friends, like his best man and another Lieutenant was there at every single one of his chemo appointments. And, you know, everybody kind of band together for him. It was kind of, it was a beautiful thing to see everybody supporting each other and making sure that he was never alone. You know, the Terry Farrell Fund reached out right away. You know, they did a cut it for cancer for him. It was just something that they hadn't ever experienced before at the, this department. And we were, we were just kind of overwhelmed with all the support that we had,

How Dan Found Himself in the Middle of the Global War or Truth
"You kind of got a you got to kind of creep in early on this story so let me give you little something background happened had to me why are you telling us a personal story because it's about me but it's not really about me it's about this global war on the truth and censorship and how i found myself in the middle of it is almost totally by chance so last was it last week or another week before the week before I traveled to Texas to do a book signing and while I was there my friend Steven Crowder who's got a show Louder with Crowder he was actually on the radio show some of you heard it he's the guy who broke the Nashville Manifesto story he's been around for he's been streaming you know longer than I've been on the air uh so he's been at this a long time he's got a very popular show called Louder with Crowder and we developed sort of a business kind of relationship because I'm investor an in Rumble and he's one of Rumble's most popular talents if not the most he gets a ton of streams he does ton a of content so we struck up a friendship I promised his story as an ending so I said today when I'm out there you know I he'd asked me to come on the show I'd asked him to go on the show was it a perfect kind of symbiotic thing I said while I'm out in Dallas where his studio was I said why don't we do a show together and his team who couldn't have been more gracious about it they were like yeah matter of fact let's do a two hour live stream we'll do an hour your show an hour an Steve show and the only difference between Steve show and mine is I'm exclusively on Rumble I I quit YouTube a long time ago after I quit YouTube they tried to say they fired me which was hilarious because my last video on YouTube was literally titled why I'm leaving YouTube so whatever but you do is that you can't leave we we terminated you okay whatever guys if you need to tell yourself that you go right ahead but I'm either either way I'm not on YouTube but but Steve is he does some content on YouTube so because I was banned from YouTube you were banned from YouTube Dan how is that what did you do I did something really horrible do you remember what it was Jim it was bad I deserved it folks yeah yeah I did that but come on it's Jim does remember so I did this thing listen folks get ready if you got kids around you you might want to turn the radio down this is gonna be it's definitely not appropriate for children so I went on on YouTube and I proceeded to tell people that those surgical masks people were wearing when COVID was peeking out and everybody was freaking out I told people on my YouTube channel that they don't stop COVID and that's what happened this is exactly how you were there we didn't even know he said so crazy Jim had a report that was the response in YouTube wait Jim Jim can you play it out again this was the actual was Jim's got this on tape he was actually had a reporter on the ground got this all on tape I went on a show and I said folks bad news for you those surgical masks are not gonna stop the transmission of COVID and then this happened okay that's checkers that's okay reject that's not the actual although it probably was the actual footage I'm okay not by joking the way that's really why I was banned from YouTube now that's not the real reason I was banned from I am HO in my opinion the real reason I was banned from YouTube is because was I an investor and a rather large one in their competitor which is rumble where my podcast and Steven Crowder's is hosted so the strange thing happened this weekend that yesterday I see account tweets out that he's got another strike from YouTube two strikes for having me on he tweeted out YouTube wants is dead they just hit us with two strikes one on the main channel one on Crowder bits just for having Dan Bongino on we're one strike away from being permanently banned he notes this is why we have mug club and rumble it's the only way to support support the mission can you imagine being a trillion dollar company alphabet google that owns YouTube finding a little old Dan Bongino so scary that he goes on Steven Crowder show which makes its way onto YouTube and you threatened to ban him permanently from the platform and issue them two strikes for doing it folks listen there's a serious uh there's kind of a serious off ramp to this highway I'm on here the reason I'm telling you this story is can if happen it to me it can happen to you I had an option when YouTube started relentlessly attacking my channel for telling you the truth about COVID I had prepared myself by going over to not only investing in rumble but to bringing my audience over to rumble we had 800 ,000 subscribers on youtube we now have 2 almost .97 3 million subscribers on rumble so it's not even close so I had a backup what I'm trying to tell you is if we lose this next election and they know they've got the censors and the Biden regime and the been in charge for the next four

The Surprising Divide Within Jewish Community
"If you're not a faithful Jew if you don't really believe that and you just believe that it's an ethnicity then you fit in with the left -wing Democrat Party just as certain Catholics would or certain Protestants would or certain other people do and the reason is if you don't get real faith out of Judaism or real faith out of Catholicism or real faith out of Judaism then the faith you hold is the faith in government that in the Democrat Party and this is why Mises was talking everybody about talks like Marxists now you listen to the left whether they're Jews or otherwise they all sound like Marxists and so the secularization of the solely ethnic Jewish people as opposed to the Jewish people who are recognize themselves as both an ethnicity and a faith has led to a great divide within the which Jewish community is why you have a guy like Thomas Friedman over writing here in the United States in the New York Times trashing Netanyahu and his unity government over and over and over again for the right -wing extremist religious parties quote unquote you'll get that from the Democrat Party you'll get that from the American media you'll get that from the Biden administration these extremist religious Jews that's what they call them there's never an extremist Marxist whether they're Americans whatever their faith that no no no and here's the piece in Axios by Andrew Solynder little over a week ago scoop Jewish Democrats lead push for Gaza fuel shipments now why would Jewish Democrats be leading the fuel the

Aunt Retells the Tragic Story of J6 Defendant Matthew Perna
"Rest of your holiday weekend and please enjoy the show. Well if you listen to my show before I don't know if you just tuned in or when you tuned in but I was telling a story about these new January 6 videos which now clearly tell an entirely different side of the story I said a lot of stuff happened on that day we've talked about it candidly fairly on this show for a very long time what bothers me is the left was looking to hide an entirely different side of what happened that day not us it was them doing because they don't want you to see the entire story they want you to see what just died and one of the stories is about a really tragic case of a gentleman named Matthew Perna and here to discuss that is a good friend and a real warrior his aunt Jerry thanks a lot for taking the time we really appreciate you coming on today thank you for having me on well we met through police tapes this movie we did and I remember seeing you on the Dinesh had sent me kind of a screener rough cut of the movie and I'm watching you talk about Matthew and what happened to Matthew and my wife I looked over and she couldn't take it neither could I it was such a horrible story if you could tell the audience what happened with Matthew let's and yeah just just tell them what happened your your version of it is really kind of tough to listen to but everyone needs to hear it well Matt went to the Capitol on January 6th he thought going he to was be part of a celebration that day the crowd was big and he got you know into the crowd and it was announced that Mike Pence had certified the election results it wasn't exactly what what he had planned and as the crowd moved forward they went to the Capitol and he was in a huge crowd of people people and he did go in he went inside a door that had been previously opened he walked around inside the building filming from his phone and he walked out he went back to his hotel he made a live Facebook video talking about the day the video is still visible on our website he was very calm and cool just talking about the day and he he made a comment that he said Mike Pence proved himself to be a traitor today and he said but don't worry don't worry this isn't over yet and that was basically the way he said it and about a week or so later I'm sitting on my couch in Florida maps up in Pennsylvania and I saw a post Facebook that said the FBI had posted pictures of people from January 6 so I clicked on the link and I was scrolling through the photos and lo and behold there's Matt's picture and I was speechless I didn't know what to do so I called one of my brothers up in Pennsylvania and I said you need to go to Matt's house first thing in the morning his picture is on the FBI website so six o 'clock in the morning warning my brother shows up at Matt's house and Matt already knew that his picture was there and he and he had contacted a retired police officer and asked him what he should do he told him to call the local office saw the FBI in Newcastle Pennsylvania so at nine o 'clock in the morning that's exactly what Matt did and Matt seriously thought this was all a huge misunderstanding he just needed to explain that he didn't hurt anybody he didn't break anything and he thought this would be resolved and so the FBI came out to talk to him and I had a couple of my brothers there present as witnesses and they listened to Matt's story and they made it seem like yeah I was just a misunderstanding and they left and Matt called me and I said you know I don't like the sound of this I said I'm coming home so I a got on plane and I flew home that week and I said we need to get you a lawyer and we did we got him a lo lawyer and and behold the FBI showed up and arrested Matt that week while I was there and they took him in and they processed him and they may let him go he was not placed in custody he was told he had to report to somebody if he were to leave the was charged with four misdemeanors the regular ones the rating disorderly and conduct and we met with his attorney his attorney said oh this is nothing this is just a slap on the wrist you've never been arrested for anything before don't worry about it I've got this well then they slapped 220 of the J sixers with the felony charge of obstruction of an official proceeding and that's when it got serious but his attorney was still saying don't worry this is this is nothing so somebody sent me video that they had of matt outside of the capitol at 2 55 in the afternoon and I says well that's almost 45 minutes after congress adjourned you hadn't even gone inside yet he said no so I thought well there's your evidence right there it's right there on video you didn't go inside you didn't obstruct anything so I sent it to his attorney and his attorney said it nope doesn't matter they said he was there so it was an obstruction and and that video isn't going to help so this was a start of a nightmare a nightmare watching matt worry and deteriorate because the newspaper facebook social media everybody was brutal they were showing the video from january six that everybody has seen countless times and calling it an insurrection and matt's community turned against him his business which he ran through social media was taken away from him all of the accounts were he disabled and didn't want to leave his house anymore and he would have meetings with his attorney that were you would have to go into the attorney's office and they would meet with the judge via zoom because of the whole covid mess and they would cancel those meetings at the very last minute every and postpone them and it would just wear on him because he would prepare himself mentally what he was going to say and they would say up it's been canceled and this went on for quite some time and um that was deteriorating something awful he no longer ran he was a runner he gave away his television because he couldn't stand to see the news anymore with his picture on his dad was who is my oldest brother has parkinson's disease and it was affecting him something awful and matt felt very guilty about the effect it had on his dad and as the year was coming to a close it was almost christmas matt had lost a ton of wait he was vomiting blood at this point and he told his attorney just i just need this to be over what's the best way for this to be over his attorney said plead guilty you're looking at six to twelve months in a federal prison camp minimum security and matt says okay what then i'll that's do and matt was going to he told me i'll turn it into a positive he said i'll teach my fellow inmates help them get their geds i'll work on another degree for myself at the time matt was very intelligent and very giving so that was settled and the hearing was scheduled for march the third and a week before the hearing matt called his attorney and he said i just have a bad feeling it's just a counseling came over me so that's the day my mother died march the third his attorney says well matt i have bad case they've postponed your your hearing again to april fool's day and the prosecution is looking to add a sentencing enhancement of terrorism and this could have taken matt's sentence to nine years in jail matt called me on the phone sobbing that day uncontrollably sobbing sobbing i could not hardly understand him he kept telling me he he loved me kept apologizing to me for losing all of my friends because i lost every friend i almost almost everyone i ever had over this and i told him don't worry we're going to get through this together don't worry god's not going to let you go to jail i promise you this and he told me he loved me i told him i loved

Finding Your Source of Confidence, Strength and Security
"Extremely important to be confident. You know, they say the difference between a confident person and an arrogant person is that a confident person has nothing to prove, but an arrogant person appears to have to prove that they're confident. Isn't that funny? Now you got to know who you are. You got to know what you want to do and you got to figure out how to do it, but you got to be confident. And it's not that kind of confidence where you fake it till you make it. I mean, you've got to be confident. You know, you've got to be confident and I can make this thing work. When my phone didn't ring for two weeks, I was still confident I could make this thing work. At the time, all I had to do was just go out and work harder and meet more people and make my phone ring and that's what I did. So I also had, I had personally, my strength came from my faith in Jesus Christ. That's where I get my strength today from my faith in my Lord and Savior. And that's not for everyone and that's okay, but you've got to get your strength from something or someone in order to make it through the obstacles and the failures you're going to have. So, you've also got to be secure in being who you are at any time in your growth. You know, when I started joining some groups and I was just doing somewhere around 400 ,000 a year and I was joining groups sitting at tables with guys that were doing 4 million a year or 2 million, 3 million, 4 million, some higher than that, I still had to be confident sitting at that table. You know why? Because I realized everybody at that table started somewhere and I was okay with where I was. Now, I wanted to be larger for sure, but I was okay. I was a sponge around that table. I was learning and they learned a few things from me, but I was learning. And if you take a quick look at some very, very successful companies and the owners and founders of the company, you'll find they started with very little too. So let's take a look at them right now. Put them up on the screen. Let's take a look at Steve Jobs. I mean, Steve Jobs started in his dad's garage, as you know, if you've watched any of the Steve Jobs movies. How about Elon Musk? Take a look at that guy. He started in a small office in his house. And then there's Jeff Bezos. Jeff Bezos started... Look at that office. I mean, he started somewhere. I mean, Amazon wasn't an existence. It wasn't around. It wasn't... He started it. See, he started small and started selling books. You know why he started selling books? Because he figured it out that books could be shipped for about the same price. So it was an easy shipping. And then he went to CDs and DVDs, which was actually easier shipping. So that's what he started with and why. Isn't that kind of funny? And then of course, you know where Amazon's at today. Okay. So everybody starts somewhere and normally it's pretty small. So long story short, you got to be secure where you're at in your growth.

Successful People Don't Get Stuck on Failure
"Second year in my business, second year, not first year, not first month, second year in business, my phone didn't ring for two weeks. And a lot of people were saying, what are you going to do? I mean, you know, how are you going to make this work? Your phone's not ringing. What are you going to do? I could have easily quit. I could have easily tapped out right there. And then a few years later, I didn't tap out. It's gradually started growing. And my sixth year in business, I was applying for a building loan because we had plans to build a new building to get out of the garage that we had built the second year in business. And I went to five banks, five banks. They said, no way, no way, no way, no way, no way. And I could have easily thrown in the towel, tapped out right there. But I didn't. The sixth, the bank said, yes. And we were in business. I mean, we were building a building. And I got, you know, I got all the walls built on that building and I hired a contractor and we had to do a lot of, remove a lot of trees and do all the foundational work and all that kind of stuff. But they were putting the walls up and got all four walls up and they didn't have them supported well. And one Saturday they collapsed. Yeah, that's, a lot of people would have thrown in a towel right there because it's just, I don't give up easily. The contractor, it was his fault. He didn't have them supported properly. He fixed it, ended up building the building, blah, blah, blah. So you know, things happen. The list, my list of obstacles and failures go on and on and on and on and on. And successful people, they don't get stuck on failure. Failure is just part of the process to succeeding. And that's what you got to know.

Dessert (MM #4627)
"The Minute Mason with Kevin Mason. Like many, we'll be hitting the road for Thanksgiving. And our big concern, which isn't really a concern, but it's something that we've been talking about now for days, what are we doing for dessert? My wife has long been in charge of the desserts for the family. Sometimes it's an apple crisp, sometimes it's pumpkin pie, it's been chocolate pie, it's been Hoosier cream pie, and lots of things in between. But for tradition's sake, usually a pumpkin pie. That's cool. The nieces and nephews like apple crisp. That's great too, that works. They also like cookies, and she does great cookies. You know what? It doesn't matter. I will be satisfied with any dessert, because I've found very few desserts that have ever been a little disappointing. But whatever we get, that's good by me. But it's kind of funny how we're concerned with this. How this is a topic of conversation, not just one night, not just two, but over the course of weeks. My wife cares because she wants everybody to be happy. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter. Whatever's there on my plate, I'll fill it up and I'll eat it. And if it's pumpkin pie or apple crisp or cookies or whatever, I'll be very happy. I guess life is very good. We have lots to be thankful for. If the biggest concern we have right now is what's for dessert.

Media Matters Tries to Destroy Elon Musk's X
"Linda Yaccarino said, if you know me, you know I'm committed to truth and fairness. Here's the truth. Not a single authentic user on X saw IBM, Comcast or Oracle ads next to content in the Media Matters article. Only two users saw an Apple ad next to the content, at least one of which was Media Matters. Data wins over manipulation or allegations don't mean manipulated stand with X. Yeah, this is a multidimensional hit job. And they're trying to go after Elon personally and criminally. They're trying to go after his liberation of the platform, all because Elon has now become a serious threat to the regime, to the unit party and the left by allowing us to speak, by allowing us to challenge preexisting orthodoxies, allowing us to incubate elite opinion in a way that the bad guys don't like. And so, you know, Michael, talk a little bit more about Media Matters. I don't know if they've targeted you. You know, they come after us quite a lot. Who funds these guys? It's it's it's a great question. You know, we see Rumble, we see X, you know, they're they're suing intensely. What else do we know about it? Well, we know that their executives make a whole lot of money in order to stifle your freedom of speech. In fact, the CEO, a woman named Angelo Caruso, Caruso makes four hundred fifty three thousand dollars a year. The person who's been in the news all week is actually David Brock. And he's arguably the most ideologically weaponized. He's the chairman of Media Matters, making two hundred ninety two thousand dollars a year in order to stifle your speech. But what's interesting is that you highlighted earlier Media Matters doesn't just not like Elon. They don't like you having the right to speak freely. Their donors and funders rely on them keeping the truth hidden and behind the curtain. The reality is X has been a platform that has provided for millions of Americans to learn the truth of what's happening in society in a way that never would have happened had X been under its formal leadership under Twitter. So we never would have learned about all that happened with the laptop and Hunter Biden. We never would have learned about the malfeasance in Ukraine. We never would have learned even recently about the January six tapes because so much of the effort for releasing the tapes, which I'm glad Speaker Johnson did, happened on X. So Media Matters can't lose their grip on power. Their grip on power relies on you not knowing the truth. And so we're seeing, as you described, this very coordinated hit job from people who are paid very, very highly in order to stifle your freedom of speech. One other thing that I will note is that some of the executives that Media Matters has tried to pull to drop their ads are people like NBC. NBC is a really interesting case because just last week NBC had a journalist of theirs that was defending somebody, an editor in chief of a progressive news site that ended up being outed as a pedophile, is now being charged with child pornography counts in one of the most egregious cases that law enforcement has ever seen in that area. So we're seeing that this virtue signaling is really just meant to target you. They don't want you to speak freely. And even these advertisers are backing people that are corrupt and dysfunctional. And yet Media Matters is silent on it. So Media Matters hasn't called out NBC about that, but they'll gladly call out NBC on a fake story that is not rooted in real data. And I'm glad that X ultimately is calling it

"this past week" Discussed on Bloomberg Radio New York
"Bloomberg quick takes Tim Steven from Bloomberg radio. This past week, the company best known for tax prep, H and R block reported a beat raising guidance for fiscal 2023 and approved a new share buyback of one and a quarter $1 billion. Jeff Jones is president and CEO of the company, and we like to remind everyone that Jeff has spent his career at a host of well-known companies that includes as chief marketing officer at the gap in target and also president of ride sharing over at Uber. Now he is shepherding H and R block to its next era. Bloomberg's Mike Reagan and I asked him how he's doing it. Well, let's start with our bread and butter. The core consumer tax business, you know, we continue to make improvements in revenue and client volume in market share and our assisted business. Really demonstrating just how strong that industry is. We talked about going into the pandemic in 19 coming out in 22, up in revenue, up in market share, up and earnings, reducing shares outstanding. So the core consumer tax business has been very strong. We had a record year in small business. And so that means more and more small business owners are recognizing our expertise and turning dust for tax. And then we had a really successful initial launch of spruce, which is our new challenger bank. You know, Jeff, the big news in politics this week, obviously, is that inflation reduction act. Part of that is they want to add thousands and thousands of IRS agents. I've got to think that's very big opportunity opportunity for you, but also potentially a challenge. I'm just curious how you're thinking about the ramp up of the IRS enforcement. Well, we've been very vocal in support of the IRS receiving more funding. They touch more American consumers than any other agency and they have not had the resources to be equipped to do that. So we absolutely support that. And what we've seen, I guess, over history is when the IRS steps up enforcement, the consumer looks for expertise more

"Were the story of this past week with Russia's invasion of Ukraine now a full scale war The death toll rising on both sides and the financial fallout rippling through the global economy That's the subject of our cover story and we're going to get to that in just a moment And a riveting and stirring cover image as well We will also hear from the CEOs of hewlet Packard enterprise and app harvest on earnings and the head of plug power on how Russia's war on Ukraine is affecting the supply of key raw materials Plus the return of the so called razor blade trade on Wall Street all of that to come we begin though with a special report on the war in Ukraine the magazine with a deep dive into the tactic of using finance as a weapon Bloomberg news financial investigation senior writer Stephanie baker part of the team covering all the battle raging on Russia's financial front she joins us from London Stephanie take us inside the issue here and your personal experience watching this unfold over the last few years Right So I went to Ukraine three times in 2019 reporting on the whole controversy surrounding Rudy Giuliani the former New York bear and his efforts on behalf of Donald Trump To pressure Ukrainian officials into announcing an investigation into Joe Biden and his son and Ukraine So and I had gone and done reporting on Paul Manafort and his work in Ukraine prior to that Lived in Russia for a few years and interviewed and profiled some of these oligarchs that are now being sanctioned So this struck me as the end of an era this 30 year period after the collapse of the Soviet Union the fall of the Berlin Wall the opening up of Eastern Europe and Russia to the global economy inward investment from western companies building up and it just struck me as this is the end of that era Russia is completely isolated It has now been declared a pariah state And it's hard to see how it comes back Unless Putin is removed from the picture Well let's talk a little bit about that because we have covered through throughout the week all the different companies that have ceased operations in Russia or pot them on pause or pulled out of Russia completely But for this piece you spoke to Bill browder who many of our audience is familiar with perhaps having read his book or followed his career over the last few decades He says the key to cutting off Putin at his Achilles heel is the oligarchs Talk about that a little bit Right yeah I've known Bill ever since I was a reporter in Moscow in the 90s So and have charted how he was banned by Putin from entering Russia when he was once the biggest portfolio investor in the country And his argument is the way to hit Putin where it hurts is to sanction the olive gardens some of whom he believes are close to Putin and hold his well Putin has amassed wealth We don't know the full extent of it We believe the intelligence agencies know much more And the way to make him feel the pain is to isolate Russia and the oligarchs from every angle to make him realize that the cost of this war is too great to continue Stephanie you've spent part of your career in Russia You also witnessed the collapse of the Soviet Union when you were in Prague in 1991 When you had just graduated from college I'm wondering where the Russian people fall into this not the oligarchs but every day Russians who have seen their currency collapse who are no longer able to get products from western companies that have announced that they will stop selling those products there Who perhaps will have their travel industry absolutely crippled us Boeing and Airbus refused to service planes that are on Russian airlines Do they have any power in bringing an end to Putin I'm so glad you asked that because it's an absolutely crucial question The problem is that Putin has shut down independent sources of information For instance there was a famous radio station called echo masquerade Which he has just closed down I think there's one surviving independent newspaper He controls the television stations And he is still calling this a special operation and not a war So there is an incredible degree of propaganda reminiscent of the Soviet Union happening right now that it's very hard to see how Russians can rise up or understand what's really going on until of course some of the casualties become clear and it was very very significant that Russia announced that almost 500 soldiers had died They don't generally do that And for Russia to admit that is a huge huge deal So when that starts to filter through to the Russian population you could see some movement but the price of protesting either hosting things online or going out onto the streets to protest is incredibly high And I think it's sad that not only on that level the level of protest is so difficult But there are tons of Russians and I know many of them who are just ordinary Russians of all levels working for normal companies Russian companies just trying to do their best trying to do business in an efficient and a westernized way And that has all been destroyed All that work building up these companies over the past 30 years has been destroyed and it will be very hard to recover Well it is a must read and we really appreciate your time and we know what's been a really busy week Stephanie thank you so much Our thanks to Bloomberg news financial investigation senior writer Stephanie baker and her work included in special report in this week's issue on the war in Ukraine It is the global cover story Coming up we're going to turn our attention to the world
