The Dow was up 742 points. That's up about 2%. Also on Tuesday, President Biden said that he
was finalizing plans to endorse major changes to the Supreme Court
in the coming weeks, which has been overcome by right-wing extremism and rampant corruption.
President Biden's proposals include proposing legislation to establish term limits for the
justices and an enforceable ethics code. Also, President Biden is considering proposing a constitutional amendment to eliminate
the absolute presidential immunity provided to Donald Trump by the United States Supreme Court's
recent ruling. So with all of that happening, what is Donald Trump doing? Well, first,
Donald Trump is trying to take credit for the booming stock market under President Biden. Donald Trump
posted Dow Jones up 742 based on the fact that the market expects a Trump win in November.
Nice compliment. Thank you. I mean, do you get any more pathetic than that? As we posted on the
Midas Touch Network, going to say it's because the incoming Fed rate cuts,
interest rate cuts, low inflation, better than expected consumer spending reports,
and the report that retail sales are booming. But it's good to see that Donald Trump is a fan
of the Biden economy. What else is Donald Trump posting? He's posting the following. The radical left Democrats are desperately trying to
play the ref by calling for an illegal and unconstitutional attack on our sacred, he puts
that in caps, United States Supreme Court. The reason that these communists are so despondent
is that they're unlawful, and look how he spells that, witch hunts are failing
everywhere. The Democrats are attempting to interfere in the presidential election
and destroy our justice system by attacking their political opponent, me, and our honorable Supreme
Court. We have to fight for our fair and independent courts and protect our country.
MAGA 2024.
Nothing really independent when the justices you appoint overturn about 248 years involving the central premise of our country that no one is above the law. And the Supreme Court found that you should be entitled to absolute immunity
to allow you to order SEAL Team 6 to kill your political opponents
and that you can get away with whatever you want.
And also, a federal judge you appointed in the Southern District of Florida
named the corrupt Judge Eileen Cannon
ruled that the special counsel
is an unlawful position and therefore dismissed a case in which you stole nuclear secrets and war
plans and kept them in Mar-a-Lago. But notably, federal Judge Eileen Cannon was confining her
ruling only to the case in the Southern District of Florida
involving your crimes.
But apparently, when Republicans appoint special counsels to go after people like Hunter Biden,
then that is a permissible use of a special counsel.
And it is authorized.
But when it's against you, it is improper.
Also, you have people at the Republican National Convention wearing on their ears like
white post-its or like white sheets on their ears so that they can show solidarity with Donald Trump.
That's kind of one step, I think, slightly above where the MAGA Republicans were quite literally wearing diapers at the various Trump rallies,
by the way, fact check true by Snopes. But then of course you turn on your propaganda media and
folks, doesn't this literally look like the types of propaganda media you see in Russia
with Vladimir Putin or in North Korea with Kim Jong-un?
Aren't we so much better than this?
Does the corporate media just think that we are stupid?
That we the people don't get it?
Just take a look at this.
Here on Fox, you have Maria Bartiroma
attributing the massive economic boom
and stock market boom
to the fact that Donald Trump picked J.D. Vance as his VP pick.
Play the clip. Trump trade again today, Maria. Watching some of these sectors and these stocks
move has been absolutely fascinating. Wall Street is on this train. All right. We appreciate
everybody joining us here. And then you have Larry Kudlow, who's been wrong on just about everything, who worked in the Trump administration,
who now is a host on Fox Business, which is just more propaganda, says that the record highs in
the stock market, well, they are responding to Trump's economic platform, he says, that this is
responding to the Republican National Convention. I mean, come on, how pathetic can you get here? Play the clip. But you cannot have Trump's growthy
platform without Trump. And I think that's had a big impact on the stock market just in the last
two days. It's up over a thousand points, almost out of the blue. And so I think the the God's gift that Senator Britt talked about,
people of faith come to this easily, I think is having a major impact. It ripples throughout
the country. People are saying there's a sigh of relief. I mean, I think they're rooting for him
completely different from what might have been two, three, four years ago. Yeah. You know,
and Larry. Hey, Midas Mighty. So a little while ago, we had the idea that we wanted to sell the best

And by the way, we shouldn't judge our economy just on the stock market, but corporate media
sure did that when Donald Trump was in office. Every day, if the stock market was up, we would
hear the economy's booming because of Donald Trump, which it wasn't.
Let's be very clear.
The stock market under President Biden is double what it was under Donald Trump.
Remember when Donald Trump said that if Biden was in office, the stock market was going
to crash?
Here, play this clip.
They said the stock market will boom if I'm elected.
If he's elected, the stock market will crash.
12 seconds later. so this just happened
during the commercial break the dow 30 broke 40 000 for the first time in history it hit 40 000.56
and then retreated just a couple of points uh we closed above 30 000 never closed above 40 000
before maybe it happens today maybe it doesn't we'll see. Dow closed above 30,000 for the first time
on November 24th, 2020.
That was only three and a half years ago.
Dana, I can remember 10 years ago, 15 years ago,
we're putting people on the air,
talking about the books they've written about Dow 40,000.
I thought they were nuts.
And yet here it is today.
And now when the stock market's booming,
Donald Trump says it's because of him.
I mean, it's just absolutely pathetic. But by the way, the stock market's booming, Donald Trump says it's because of him. I mean, it's just absolutely pathetic.
But by the way, the stock market isn't how we should be judging our economy.
We should be judging our economy also by our wages increasing.
Yes, they are.
Do we have other economic metrics that are important?
Low unemployment.
Unemployment's been at its longest stretch, basically, in American history.
Is the GDP increasing?
Yes, our GDP is increasing at record highs because of actual policy that President Biden
has engaged in, like the Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure Act and the CHIPS
Act and reducing health care costs and doing things like that.
He's gotten inflation under control to meet the targets of the Fed.
And also, don't let the media gaslight us.
Inflation didn't just pop up like some storm. The reason that there was inflation is because Donald Trump added record debt
to the United States. Trillion, seven, eight, nine trillion dollars in debt was added by Donald
Trump. Trump recklessly printed money and tried to print money as a way to get out of COVID.
And then he totally mishandled the PPP program, prioritizing millionaires, deca-millionaires, and billionaires with benefits over regular people.
That's why MAGA Republicans frequently were getting their debt forgiven under the PPP.
But when you inject that much money into the economy like that so recklessly, that's the result.
When you give tax cuts for billionaires and aren't able to pay for it. That's the result. When you give tax cuts for billionaires
and aren't able to pay for it, that's the result. By the way, don't believe me. Why don't you
believe a Republican? Here, this is a Republican talking about it. Here, play this clip. I think
you know who this is. Let's play it. And you know who else is missing in action?
Donald Trump is missing in action. He should be on this stage tonight. He owes it to you to defend his record
where they added 7.8 trillion to the debt.
That set the stage for the inflation that we have now.
Now compare that to President Biden's speech
before the NAACP.
Here's what President Biden said.
I know what a black job is
because remember Donald Trump said
that there are black jobs.
And he says there are black jobs and the immigrants are coming for the black jobs.
Black jobs.
What are you talking about?
What President Biden had to say.
Well, I'm serious.
Go figure.
From a guy who spread the birth of the lie against Barack Obama,
saying he wasn't born in America and he wasn't a U.S. citizen.
Of course, here's what he thinks of black jobs.
I love this phrase, black jobs.
It tells a lot about the man and about his character.
Folks, I know what a black job is.
It's a vice president of the United States. I know what a black job is.
The first black president of the American nation, Barack Obama.
Here's what President Biden had to say about medical debt. Play the clip.
We're going to end medical debt. We've already made sure medical debt can no longer be put on
a credit report. Well, I'm working with states to wipe out medical debt for pennies on the dollar
so it's not hanging over you the rest of your life.
Here's what President Biden had to say about the real statistics, not Trump's fraud, the real statistics about black unemployment hitting a record low under the Biden administration.
Play the clip.
COVID no longer controls our lives. Our economy is not figuring to be literally
the strongest economy in the world.
Historic low black unemployment.
Record growth of black small businesses.
Let me say this again, because Trump is lying like hell about it.
The black unemployment hit a record low under Biden-Harris administration.
The first bill I passed was $1,400 checks plus $300 checks per child, per family, per month in the pockets of people in this country.
To get them through the pandemic.
Not Trump's administration.
Kamala and I did that.
And here's President Biden talking about shootings that are taking place,
mass shootings in the United States.
Here, play the clip.
You understand if you're going to talk about standing against violence,
you must stand against all violence.
You must stand against violence perpetrated against presidential candidates in Pennsylvania.
You must stand against all violence.
The violence perpetrated against George Floyd of Minnesota.
Against black veterans like police officers Eugene Goodman on January 6th, and black election workers like Ruby
Freeman and Shane Moss in Atlanta.
You have to stand against the violence and intimidation of white supremacy that murdered
innocent lives in that grocery store in Buffalo, New York,
when I went up there. Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina,
was standing against the violence of murdered children in Sandy Hook and Uvalde.
Concert goers in Las Vegas, innocents on the street all across America that never make the news,
there's Uvalde every day in the communities across the country.
If you're going to be outspoken on one, don't be silent on others.
We're going to speak about violence.
We're going to speak about guns.
More children in America die of a gunshot wound than any other reason that's stunning and that is sick.
And it's sheer cowardice if we do nothing about it. So, if you want to stand against violence in America,
then join me in getting these weapons of war off the streets of America.
So you have that taking place, and on the other hand,
you've got MAGA leaders like Marjorie Taylor Greene
yelling at reporters at the RNC like this.
Here, play this clip.
Let's talk about people like you. Where's your play this clip. Let's talk about people like you.
Let's talk about people like you
that demonize people like me, President Trump.
You know, I have some of the most highest amount
of death threats because of people like you,
because you choose to only take certain words from people
and then that's what you want to report.
Shame on you.
Shame on you.
Because you're the problem. And where no, no, no, no.
You're the problem.
And where's this woman from?
The Times.
You're from the Times.
Okay.
You're ridiculous.
And you're the problem in our country.
You lie about people like me.
This is the first time you've ever talked to me.
I want you to know, I'm a regular person like you.
I'm also a mom.
I have three kids.
And we have to put up with the most unreal amount of bullshit because of little liars like you. I'm also a mom. I have three kids. And we have to put up with the most unreal amount of bullshit because of little liars like you that take your job and turn it into political activism.
Your job is the press. You should report the news. Not lie about you don't get to ask any
more questions. I'm done with you because you're the cause. You're the cause of our country.
No, no, no. You're the cause of our country being divided. you're the cause of our country. No, no, no, you're the cause of our country being divided.
You're the cause of our country being divided.
You're the cause of President Trump almost being assassinated.
You're the cause of everything wrong in America.
No, no, you're done.
You're done.
Yeah, go back.
Thank you.
And then, by the way, you have Donald Trump sending unhinged emails like this.
This was the email that Trump sent yesterday.
Ben, Ben, Ben, I'll be looking for your response.
My question for you, I'm pretty sure I know the answer.
Now that J.D. Vance is my VP nominee,
will you pledge to vote for us?
And then Donald Trump goes, my plan for J.D. Vance.
Hey, but that's the subject.
My plan for J.D. Vance.
J.D. Vance, I need you to stop the invasion
at the Southern border.
Let's be clear,
border crossings right now are down and are less than when Trump was in office. I need you to
deport every illegal and make America safe again. One of the things Donald Trump says he'll do on
day one is he's going to round up people who he believes are not here legally, round them up and
have the biggest mass deportation.
Just want you to think about what that's going to look like as law enforcement starts knocking
on your doors, searching for people on day one. It says, J.D. Vance, I need you to help rebuild
our economy from Crooked Joe's destruction. Again, so much for the tone change and end inflation and make America wealthy again.
I mean, do you mean prioritize wealthy Americans in?
Because all I see is these billionaires
saying that because of Trump's promised tax cuts,
they're willing to sell out our democracy again.
And President Biden has got inflation under control now
thanks to actually doing things
and not waking up and whining every
day with all caps posts like a little freaking child. And then he goes, J.D. Vance, I need you
to help end our humiliation overseas. I need your help to make America strong again. NATO has never
been stronger than it is right now. The 75th annual NATO conference, the anniversary of NATO
was held here in the United States. New members were welcomed into NATO. Our alliances abroad
have never been stronger. Do not want America that has alliances with freaking Putin and Kim
Jong-un. And if you think that's not what they're going to do,
that's what they are saying.
So we have a corporate media billionaire,
deca-millionaire class who are trying to sell us out.
They're trying to sell you out.
And I'm not trying to use hyperbolic rhetoric.
That's what is happening.
And the good news is, is that collectively you,
we, we've created this network together to call them out and expose them. This is a mask off
moment for what they are trying to do. And it's right before our eyes. We, the people want law
and order. We, the people don't want the drama. We don't want the infantile wannabe fascism.
We don't want that.
We want normalcy.
