Tucker Carlson said Ray Dalio is one of the world's smartest investors, but more important, he's likely the wisest. Make yourself read this book. That book is how countries go broke, the big cycle. In it, Dalio explains the mechanics behind big debt cycles, and what they mean for countries with big and increasing debts like the U.S. and what you should do to protect yourself. You can find it wherever books are sold,

or read a five-minute summary of the book at economic principles.org. Gotcha. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Just leave your room keys at the door. Happy Thursday, everyone. So on a recent podcast, former First Lady Michelle Obama complained about the time Ellen DeGeneres challenged her to a push-up contest. Michelle founded oddly uncomfortable since Ellen insisted on laying underneath her. Because she's a lesbian. Speaking of, Michelle also admitted on the podcast that she fights with her husband over the thermostat. She wants it at 70 degrees while he wants it up his butt. According to a new book, Joe Biden brought in famed director Stephen Spielberg to help with his campaign.

They called the Operation Saviolberg. Dying Biden. According to the same book, Kamala Harris's campaign team held a fake cocktail party without alcohol so she could work on her social skills without a drink in her hand. But she showed them and brought her trusty beer helmet. Good for her. Don't let him change you, Kamala. While arguing about a deported illegal criminal, Eric Swalwell warned Christy

that he has a . Which he obviously hadn't purchased until after he banged that Chinese spy. Speaking of, according to a new report, Chinese spies have infiltrated Stanford University. This became very apparent when all the graduation gowns showed up neatly folded and pressed. Oscar-winning actress Hallie Barry says she doesn't know if a woman should ever play James Bond.

After all, women already have a license to kill. It's called a driver's license. Gutfeld. Yeah. I don't want you to be alone. Thank you. The first great white shark of the season was spotted off Montauk in New York. Officials warned swimmers to beware of the shark and warn sharks to beware of Joy Behar. And finally, did you see President Trump's visit to the Middle East? I know. Holy cow. I haven't seen that many men in dresses since the WNBA draft. All right. That was a good little run there.

We'll be back with more Gutfeld. If you're thirsting for asphalt's melting your work boots, tape measure has anger issues, nail guns talking smack again, and hard hat baked onto head-level refreshments, we definitely have that. Cool off with Gatorade summer blaze. Available only at Circle K. When you're feeling the heat, Circle K makes your day. All right. So did you hear? egg prices have dropped big time. And not just eggs, but groceries overall. It's the biggest drop in five years if you don't count Joe Biden's testicles. But you want to see how CNN reports it? Here's their headline, quote, Trump's egg price fiction has suddenly become reality. Yeah, Trump's fiction, now reality. Meaning when Trump turns out to be right,

it's only because reality caught up to his lies. In CNN's, that headline translates. He says, he may be right, but he's still evil. Next, they'll say egg prices have dropped, but that's bad for trans chickens. You know they're trans because they tuck their McNuggets. So remember the I-word, inflation? Yeah, neither does the media, because it no longer works for them. And what about the stock market? The media had investors stepping out on a ledge.

and not just to drop a water balloon on the homeless guy below. Tariffs were supposed to cause such an economic collapse that it convinced me to stop paying my riders. And what of the assertion that Trump would be a laughing stock on the global stage? Have you seen what's going on in the Middle East? They're giving him jets as a housewarming gift. Biden wasn't even worth a barf bag

and an extra bag of sun chips. You know, it's weird how we're always right and the media is always wrong. If this were a marriage, they'd be the husband. But Americans are sick of it. A recent poll found that 49% of voters think media bias is getting worse compared to just 11% who see it getting better. Meanwhile, 44% of voters agree with this statement. No matter how much.

You know how much you hate the media, it's not enough. You know, I have that same feeling, but it's for sharing an elevator with Britt Hume after he's had his sardine smoothie. No nugget, Greg. It's good for the prostate. We got to get it really good for the prostate. Put it down. My throat comes out. Great. But that's not just losing trust. That's burning down an entire industry and peeing on the ashes. This hatred is bipartisan, not just Trump bros and monster trucks playing kid rock at max volume. We're talking independence, centrist, even bored libs who keep getting let down because they're being led down the path of defeat.

So it raises a new question. If we're tired of the media's lies, why aren't they tired of it, too? I mean, I can understand a liar continuing to lie if it pays off. That's how I talk my way past the height restrictions on most roller coasters. But what if the filter you use keeps predicting the wrong outcome? Wouldn't you get tired of that? Wouldn't you go back to the drawing board? When you see that it doesn't work anymore?

It's like when I realized I can't keep firing my secretaries when they won't date me. Again, it's one thing to make millions selling swamp land in Florida, but it's another thing to try to sell swamp land, and it's you who ends up in the moss and the mud. The grift isn't just not working out on us. It's not working for them either. And surely by now the media and Dems have heard enough of the criticism.

They're out of ideas. They're too woke, too disconnected from voters. But it's clear they still ignore it because they haven't changed. But what they can't ignore is that the filter they're using to perceive reality predicts nothing except defeat in misery. Think of the mindset that led them to embrace the Maryland dad. That led them to think men could play in women's sports. That led them to think this corpse was constantly.

Or this clown could win. Their mindset led them to think parents would accept tampons in boys' bathrooms and drag queens in school libraries. I could go on, but then I would be late for my pole dancing class. Thank you. Reduces stress. I mean, imagine if you were a gambler and you had this system that picked horses, but every single time you lost. Wouldn't you dump your betting strategy? strategy or at the very least pick up a healthier habit like meth.

When your frame of reference leads you defeat at every turn, shouldn't you lose that frame of reference? You think they would, but so far they won't. When it comes to self-reflection, the media is less curious than Elton John around a stack of playboys. Listen to head free with a Fox News podcast plus subscription on Apple Podcasts.
