Fallout is continuing as J.D. Vance's remarks surrounding the Nazi texts and racist texts, and his support of them has made its way through Republican circles. We now have a Republican who is literally slamming J.D. Vance and CNN. The White House has now admitted that they have been having ongoing discussions with Putin. Absolutely insane. I have that coming up. And the new Federal Reserve governor has admitted on Fox that what Donald Trump is doing is, raising prices. Of course it is, but he's now admitting it. This guy does not have any juice. Here's that. But before we get to that, if you could hit like and subscribe, I promise I'll stop

saying it when we had a million subscribers, but let's just get to that number. It's so important. And we're going to get there so much faster if you do the thing that's free and helps us out so much is by hitting subscribe. Okay, let's get to this. Yesterday discussed tariffs. And what do you think the takeaway was in terms of tariffs from the beige book? Yeah. So obviously there are a lot of people. people who there are a lot of people who ascribe inflationary moves to tariffs. You know, I'm not among them. You know, my perspective is that tariffs always had the possibility of raising inflation.

It may yet happen, but I don't see it in the data thus far. Yeah, tariffs raise price. I mean, hello, hello, it doesn't take a genius to realize tariffs, raves prices on all of us. It's the largest tax in American history on Americans, point blank. And we don't talk about enough to be quite honest. We don't. And one thing Republicans would like us to stop talking about is the fact that J.D. Vance and many Republicans in their 30s and 40s were sending racist vile Nazi-approving text messages to each other. J.D. Vance backed it, but one MAGA senator went against it, which I'm grateful for. We need more of this. There's zero, and everybody's been perfectly clear. There's zero room for this kind of behavior in politics as a whole, regardless of Republican or Democrat.

But we hold our own accountable inside the Republican Party. We won't allow that to happen. The vice president said essentially that these were kids making jokes and they shouldn't be canceled for it. Do you think that that's right? Well, I didn't hear what the president's remarks is. The vice president's remarks. But I would never let my kids joke like that. That's zero.

There's a solid note. My grandfather fought in World War II. He went over on Omaha Beach. he saw the despicable things that the Nazis did to not just the Jewish people, but to other countries and other races along the way. He went into a concentration camp. He was a gentleman that you never ate Hershey's chocolate around because of the story that he tells about going inside a concentration camp. And so it's not room to joke for me. It's a hard stop.

All right. Yeah. Not the biggest point. back in the entire world. He definitely heard J.D. Vance's comments. These people are so online. They hear everything. That is a lie. Regardless, he is saying that for the reason that he feels like the right person is not actually leading in this moment. That's why he's saying it because he did hear what J.D. Vance had to say. And he wanted to put something else out there. And I think it's really telling it. And it's true. We wouldn't want our kids talking like that. Really good point.

I'm going to call it balls and strikes. Mark Wayne Mullen, who has two first names in his name, made a good point and we'll just leave it at that we'll leave it at that now Donald Trump is kind of in crisis mode because Caroline levitt dropped a bomb that they are engaging with Putin right now and so I'm going to have her comments and then Donald Trump has fallout that he's taking questions from reporters sure he just put out a truth statement if you haven't seen it yet I encourage you to look at it But I was just talking with the president and the Secretary of State and the vice president. And it was a very good and productive call. It lasted more than two hours.

There were various issues that were discussed. President, he congratulated President Trump for solving the conflict of Israel and Gaza and bringing peace back to the Middle East. He also thanked the First Lady for her efforts to bring back children and save children in this brutal conflict. Yeah, Donald Trump did make that announcement. Here's that. He said, President Putin thanked the first lady for the involvement with children. He was very appreciative and said this will continue. And he also said, here I've just concluded conversation with Putin. And it was a productive one. Really? I mean, this man knows how to, he has him wrapped around his finger. I don't know what he has on him, but he obviously has something.

There's something up. Now, Caroline Levin didn't stop there. She was also asked about the, these are literally it's literally just state sanctioned murder they're killing these Venezuelans who are on these boats they say they're narco-terrorist there's no proof and they're just killing them she was asked about it we know that the Trump administration is trafficking drugs illegally to the United States but who we're in a moment and the president's been very clear and he's been very transparent about these strikes releasing classified video unclassifying that video classifying it rather for all of you to see and to let the public and lawmakers know with each of

these strikes and you know there should be no surprise for this the president campaigned on using every lever of power to go after the drug cartels who have been trafficking illicit poison into our country proof i want proof in the united states of america we have a little thing called proof if you are going to murder someone you better have a pretty good reason and generally speaking what what we do in this country is we put people on trial instead of just murdering them. Remember that? Now, Donald Trump is in the middle of a press conference and he is, I don't know, let's just say he's taking a lot of Tylenol. Can we say it like that?

And he said this about ending wars. He's talking about the whole president's election tomorrow. It just seems to me that, you know, look, it's only a field. That's all I've done in my whole life. I've made deals. I know about deals. I do it well. I don't think any presidents ever ended a war, frankly.

They won war. I did eight of them, Maria, right? And, but I don't know, did Bush ever end? Do you think Biden ended a war? Biden started wars because he was stupid. But do you think Biden ended any wars? No. I don't think, I don't know if anybody that ended worse. Oh, my God.

This guy's an idiot. Someone writes here, I feel like we are all living at a giant mental hospital with him. It does feel like that, doesn't it? It does. RFC Jr. said to Trump, I saw on an airplane, day you said you did not believe that you're getting to heaven you're doing God's work here. I don't know about that. I don't know about that. Also, back on this war thing, I don't think you can really claim you've ended a war when you've created, now you've created multiple wars at home.

And by the way, the ceasefire deal that you created in the Middle East that was really Biden's ceasefire deal. You just decided to put your name on it may have been blown up. So what have you ended really? I mean, there's still a Russian war, the Ukraine war? I don't know. I don't know if you're really the peace president, Donald Trump. Now, Donald Trump is going to meet with Putin again. And it did absolutely nothing, but he's doing it again, this time, I guess, in Hungary. Talk parties, but this is a terrible relationship the two of them have. And it's one of those things. I've seen things that nobody would believe, but this is one of them. So I'll be meeting. We're going to be meeting in Hungary. Victor Orban is going to be hosting. And it's,

That's really something that's time. Last week, over 7,000 people were killed. That's ridiculous. And, you know, it doesn't affect our country. We're not losing people. We're not losing Bobby. We're not losing Americans. But they're losing Russians, Ukrainians, mostly soldiers for the most.

Anyone knows he's like slurring his words? He's really slurring today, isn't he? Something that's time. All right, well, I don't know, another insane day. The insane president. Hooray for us.
