one what’s my go-to meal when I come home first thing I get usually is Monterey Mexico that’s usually my first thing and I get so excited about it and I had it on Sunday on the way into town still going to try to squeeze it in again 104% tariff starts on China tonight lots of back and forth coming out of China lots of back and forth coming out of the market uh we’ll talk about that some craziness in the swings let’s put up the uh news time banner i know your first question though it’s going to be on the bond side
i have one person that went into a meeting uh where are we at now checking the time 2 hours and 8 minutes ago i don’t have a response i got another one that was supposed to go into a meeting eight minutes ago i was hoping the five o’clock meeting would give me an update they were expecting when they went to their meeting they were expecting their final contracts and payment an initial uh 1% down is what they’re expecting to walk away with today i don’t have the results yet uh if I get them um you guys
want to come up with something for me to safely to post i don’t know so I probably shouldn’t mess i don’t want to risk them or me um but uh hopefully hopefully possibly possibly before we wrap in a few minutes we may have the results from the first bond meeting and we’ve got a couple more tomorrow to follow phoenix Squadron let me play China sad song with world’s smallest violin we got some more stuff on that one to get to i’m pretty exciting yeah now we’re up to 70 countries wanting to negotiate with Trump none of them wanted
to negotiate two weeks ago now suddenly they want to yes a safe word j go Steelers wait it’s exciting hopefully we will get cheeseburgers i like that Floyd all right let’s keep going we do have news we need to cover the speaker of the house of representatives Dr muhammad Al Mashidadani receives the charge day affairs at the US embassy in other words Mr rubenstein with an economic delegation from the American Chamber of Commerce uh and stresses the importance of expanding investment horizons in Iraq
they have descended we have a large-scale meeting that could bring billions of dollars in investment inside of the Iraqi borders uh positive stuff this is what we talk about international these are international business people conducting intern well looking for international business opportunities they wouldn’t be there if Iraq wasn’t on the rise guys they would not be there and that means the potential for new rates alattoani i love this one i got a kick out of this one but I got a kick out of it mostly for
them catching on i I I don’t even realize what they said alatuani Trump’s tariffs may cause significant economic damage to Iraq how so i don’t need to highlight that he’s referring to he’s saying look Iraq itself is pretty insulated because they don’t import or export much to the US so tariffs won’t affect them because oil and energy is exempt so they’re not too worried about that um what they’re worried about is Trump’s moves to reset the world and how they deal with America and the economy can greatly lower oil prices um could
drop 15 20 $25 a barrel which of course Trump would love because that means uh it would be cheaper to manufacture in the US cost of living would go down uh real real possible boom for uh US business US consumers he’s saying that would be the difficult part for Iraq because Iraq gets majority of their income 90% of it or so roughly presently they’re changing that they’re in the process but right now they get the overwhelming majority from oil sales so he’s saying it could affect indirectly it could affect Iraq but I’ll get a kick
out of this one he’s mad at Trump let’s see alatuani concluded by saying Trump’s decision reflects his arrogance as it does not take into account the interests of allied countries but focuses on ensuring the interests of his country only in an attempt to improve his image in front of his audience wait his audience he’s elected to be president of the United States to take care of the United State the American citizens the you and I the working class the people that live here citizens that vote here
work here raise families here of course that is what he’s doing he is putting their interests first it’s the whole notion it’s why he got elected he’s not pandering to his audience he’s keeping his campaign promises i am guessing guys now I could be wrong i’m not but I’m betting Alatwani wants to do things and put Iraq first in their decisions instead of putting American interests ahead of Iraqi citizens interests i am just blown away by how confusing this is to folks common sense all right so anyways I couldn’t
resist on that one just reading that one shows you the mindset of so many around the world of course guys he’s just he’s a spokesman so it’s kind of like listening to a talking head for the Democrats like James Carville or something doesn’t really affect policy or the actual opinion of the government but isn’t it stunning how some people just don’t get the idea of America first or UK first or Iraq first it is your job to take care of your and your family first iraqi government issues new decisions now this
one is just fantastic iraqi government issues new decisions this is a longer read they have made some massive new decisions and things that they are unloading in Iraq shows you a country that is building that is reforming that is ready to or preparing to launch on the world stage again uh according to statement by the Sudin media office received by Baghdad today the two sessions they had two sessions today they’ve been busy making up for they’ve been doing double time in parliament to make up for what they’ve
missed uh and implementation of government programs paragraphs that agenda taking decisions on them some of the things they have done I really like this one I think this is a great one and we should take a little lesson from it for here in the US proceed proceeding with the procedures for distributing land plots for educational staff in Baghdad and the provinces forming a higher committee to implement the letter of prime minister office the high commission for coordination okay that’s that’s a little
wordy let’s get down to what it means lifelong career educators government owns a lot of land a lot of land that was abandoned when they fled during the Gulf Wars um left over from when their government worked very differently so what they’re doing there a lot of private plots private individuals can own property but a lot of it after everything they’ve been through is owned by the government government is giving free land plats now you can’t just be an educator for a year and get one so they’re
setting it up for teacher i love this idea uh government owns land uh property let’s say something’s been foreclosed upon or they didn’t pay property taxes they’re going to make it available to teachers first i love that idea that’s putting education where it belongs and prioritize i I personally I like that one don’t know what you guys’s thoughts are but I love that one there’s a lot more in here teacher protection laws and that’s only part of what they’re doing loans for education education uh loan of
course loans for teachers to buy houses build houses you name it ministry of Oil working on um updating their infrastructure we’re also talking about um new gas lines so that they can replace Iranian gas um irrigation projects i mean just massive this thing is a who’s who of everything they’ve done including Escotta updating the port system uh customs that really is just a wealth and one of the things I found interesting in here is issuing a treasury bond worth 5 trillion in 10% interest to cover the
advances the completed project works for the investment plan in the 2025 budget in other words to turbocharge it the shot of nitrous to get these projects done they are offering them as bonds construction bonds this is something the rest of the world does that Iraq really hasn’t done hadn’t had the power to do it until recently so this one is just this one should get any of the folks that are out looking for those white paper and white paper reforms this one is just awesome just awesome all the
moves they are making in Iraq to meet those uh obligations so that they can as Sudani put it lift the purchasing power of all Iraqis make the dinar the father of the dollar again all right I didn’t even put up the news ban all right just consider it all news a give me for you Ripple XRP folks Ripple acquires prime broker Hidden Road for 1.25 25 billion this company does many more times that i don’t know about many more times but trillions of dollars um in assets they move this one’s important because they’re going to be
able to broker and move um billions and billions of dollars worth of assets this is going to be important as they start tokenizing a lot of the assets they now have a mechanism for moving it if anybody understands the mechanisms of what Ripple is trying to do with XRP they’ll get really excited about this one because they’ll be able to expand they’ll be able to expand into legacy finance to digital assets they’ll be able to take out some of these um tokenized uh assets they’ll be able to turn them into liquid dollars and
movement this one’s really big this is one of the bridges we’ve been looking for uh between a digital and the old school system or the fiat system we’ve been using really excited about this one hopefully Zester will do a deep dive on this one tomorrow for you guys what did Michael say Mark i don’t think the US avoids a recession without the RV the tariffs are the trigger not the cause of the market crash all right we can argue that one Michael but I I understand where you’re going they’re only the cause of it because
they were a large reason of why we’re here financially but I get where you’re going uh they will trigger what should have already happened they’ll trigger a correction so on that one dead on buffett indicator shows over 200% over there you go so they’re moving and working on that one we’ve already been in a recession for over two years according to the classic definition they just kept changing the definition so I guess for me I’m kind of a stickler for that one we’re already in a recession this one I
think is just going to hasten it so we don’t stay in the skewflation stagflation portion as long or the sideways side of it but you’re right the Buffett indicators show us way overvalued our stock market should be half of what it is right now half it’s exciting to watch it this is truly history in the making of course history can also go off the rails so uh keep your eyes focused on the goals supreme Court blocks a reinstatement of fire federal workers for now i love this one guys another huge court
win as the Supreme Court pulls back the reinss on activist judges and jurisdiction or judge shopping where they go find one from a district whoever’s got some liberal wants his moment in the sunshot wants to be loved on X by liberals or something i don’t know why they do this but they go court shopping and here we have yet another one this is like the third big win for the Trump administration in uh probably as many days uh definitely over the past week so Supreme Court blocks the reinstatement of fired workers where a
lower court judge was telling them they had to supreme Court’s like “No he doesn’t.” Big guys these are huge rulings i told you when Trump first started that he was forcing constitutional crisises so that they could qualify the powers of the different branches this is just historic watching him work on this one see gone fishing yesterday Trump said the tariffs and currency have both been unbalanced and need to be more fair what is your take on that comment i love it because it’s going to force revaluations just like we’re talking
about leveling the playing field he’s telling you what he’s doing he’s telling you talked about some of the currencies that have been devaluing their currencies so that they could get an unfair trade balance he’s saying no they need to fix it needs to reflect their actual value i’m loving it you totally gone fishing you got what he’s putting down uh CCP definitely interferes with these uh negotiations well I mean the mainstream stuff and the tariffs yes they are the reason DRA uh pulling it the question is is whether or not many
of the conspiracy theorist folks out there that think that Xiinping is working with Trump to unseat the old system in a positive way i am not convinced i still think he’s a puppet of the CCP but that’s me uh Jerry well good for you we’re going to start working on just a short clip of dinar news i know many of you folks don’t like the politics unfortunately right wrong indifferent it’s part of it i know I get in real trouble with uh liberals when I tell them that they just don’t want to hear it and it’s the same
way with uh Rhino Republicans they’re the same way too no difference one of them wears red one wears blue legal status revoked for 985,000 migrants who entered US under Biden era CBP1 app they entered illegal they gave them an app to try to give them some semblance legality was still illegal department of Homeland Security working with the court system has ended it which is going to mean larger deportations uh another big court win for uh well I shouldn’t say court win another big legal change or win for the
Trump administration there will be a lot of judges and judge shopping for this one too expect it to go the same way you don’t get to willy-nilly just decide you don’t like a law and change it it has to go through the right procedures it goes to a Congress they vote on it they decide that’s how it works it’s how the Constitution was designed that’s how our government was designed just Yeah suck it up deal with it all right recordbreaking $1 trillion defense budget for me I think we spend too much this one uh watching the
meltdown from the left um hey guys you don’t know jerry could be conservative as heck he just may just not have enough time for everything else he may just want the bullet points guys don’t beat on poor poor Jerry all right one trillion defense budget we weren’t supposed to cross over the one trillion based on projections until next year we were at 951 billion problem is some things got in the way and boy have I had a kick today watching mainstream media go “Oh my god they’re going to spend a trillion.” They
had no problem spending hundreds of billions of dollars and sending our military equipment to other countries they had no problem with it problem is we were only going to spend 950 billion or 951 billion and we sent a couple hundred billion dollars worth of our ammunition equipment trucks tanks planes bombs bullets guns we sent them somewhere else so now we got to replace them i am just guessing that these same liberals are forgetting what has happened for four years how they were like “No we need to give more of our
arms we need to give more of our guns we need to give more of them.” So they did now we got to replace them it’s craziest thing i know like if my friend let’s let’s say I’ve got a landscaping business and my friend has a landscaping business and somebody decides that because I don’t have enough tractors I get to take four or five of his tractors well what’s he going to mow his yards with right this is kind of simple i know it’s not yards but it’s military equipment we still have to protect ourselves but we don’t have the
equipment out so it’s got to be replaced so the left is really upset over the size of this budget but they’re the ones that gave it all away so we got to replace it i do like the fact and they talk about how much more effective that trillion dollars is because of Doge instead of $10,000 for a small bag of bolts it’ll be you know 10 bucks for a bag so they’re going to get a lot more bang for the buck as they restructure our military also it’s how it um acquires products that whole procurement system give our to soldiers the tools
they need at the same time guys we have to have a strong have to have a strong military it’s our best defense i get it i do i just hate that we live in a world where we make military decisions well decisions with our soldiers that just don’t make sense i I I wish we lived in a world where we didn’t need a military that size i do and do I think over time with sanity and running things with common sense we can scale that back i do uh I think it’s really important that we get to the point where we can scale it back
but we gave a couple hundred billion dollars away in the last few years under the Biden administration now it’s got to be replaced or we can’t protect ourselves yep billions of dollars in Afghan i mean they really did i mean what within a month or two they started giving away all of our military assets in the last administration yeah it’s ah all right i did have another question or two so I can hit a couple more things um somebody had asked me some of the reasons why bonds are important um getting historic bonds done
they do two things you got to close out old books if you’re going to reset so that you can open your new books it’s just part of settling old accounts and responsibilities or actual responsibilities um but also does something else by getting the historic bond holders in as I understand it it brings liquidity to the system uh you’re like wait a minute system’s going to be instant what we have represents assets in other countries so it takes time to move those from one point point A to point B all
around the world in the regular economy i don’t think most people understand how banks work they have a pool of money so when you go put in your deposit it still hasn’t come from everywhere else but you can go ahead and cash a lot of checks because well they’ve got the money on hand they’re going to get it they know it’s good so it’s a liquidity issue as well if they did not go before us we would go in and we would not get access to our money for a while they would have to wait for it to clear or in the case of oil for dinar
if it’s as we understand it that money is not going to exist until it gets traded for the oil or the oil is purchased could be three years four years so the historic bonds offer a a way or a mechanism to have liquidity so that when we show up to do exchanges that we can walk away with our dollars otherwise we would have a heck of a wait period as it trickled in that’s a short one i know it’s much more detailed than that but I’m trying to keep it very simple and layman terms so people understand why it’s important that the
process works the way it’s designed rw my resident philosopher I appreciate you it’s good to have you in here yeah I still haven’t found out what the Fed was talking about my guess is it’s what we saw this morning with the brief well-intentioned rally rally went a bit sideways how do I even put this one some of the reasons why every comment today was put under a microscope the rally started and then there was a comment from China hey no we’re going to go to the very bitter end and then it split the other way then it went up then
it went down the market is reacting similar to how it did in 1929 right now guys just keep that in mind it is very uh volatile right now focus on the fundamentals of it focus on the fundamentals try not to to ride the roller coaster i love that one peach Keen I’m on the radar i’m no pushover no quitting me i don’t know how to quit haven’t heard anything fresh on the new USN other than just the rumors to expect it uh as soon as uh they start paying bonds we’ll start seeing in circulation all right probably a good
place to uh call it a wrap Anthony the only ones that I feel pretty confident in are well the most confident in are going to be uh the the the dinar the Vietnamese dong Indonesian rupia uh I still feel very good about Zim i’m pretty uncertain as to whether we can expect uh Iranian currency or Venezuelan currency in the first one i wish I knew what to tell you i just don’t cmkm I keep being told they’re positioned they’re ready they’re waiting for permission to release i was told probably 10 days ago that they did
another update on fines and penalties i tried to find out if they would tell me what that number is they won’t they said that my predictions were probably pretty close i’ve been predicting about 8 to10 per share lord is my shepherd what do you think about Trump going 104 tariff on China it’s a back and forth bluff until somebody sits down at the table the question is who’s going to blink first who’s going to play chicken um for the US it’ll be uncomfortable if if we go to the end and China doesn’t uh if China
goes to the end and doesn’t cave or negotiate then it’s going to obliterate them financially i mean it’ll be back to rice patties in a year or two uh the number of homes being lost manufacturing being shut down because if the US cuts it out then that is a massive portion of their economy and they suffer that loss then Europe falls because Europe is so heavily invested in China the present financial system is hanging on by a thread and China’s over there with scissors cutting threads it would force things to come to
a completion very quickly though yeah all stage ghost cities i’m I’m watching a lot of you guys’s comments and like Merryill said we’re China’s best customers and we should be our own best customers i I I guess that whole made in America from the 80s that that Reagan really tried and pushed went really really out of uh vogue with uh Bush Senior and Bill Clinton and then it didn’t get much better sue me it’s a good amount of uh knowledge get a little more so you’re safe having fun reading some of you
comments some of you all’s comments this evening mouse that sounds good some chili over rice i used to make chili spaghetti i’d make chili and put it on some noodles have chili spaghetti i like that one just reading some of you guys’ comments before we call it a wrap remnant gonna hurt Dollar General and other dollar stores you are right because of where they get most of their um goods from uh I do I’m expecting I’m still hearing the aggro checks and everything are going in the first round that’s what
I’m still hearing i’m praying that is accurate all right I’m going to get out of here see you all in the morning bye guys it’s been a long day looking forward to some downtime see you guys in the morning 10:00 a.m again no Andy tomorrow he is traveling back stateates side he gets in about midnight tomorrow so he won’t make it but he’s 100% in for the following Wednesday all right guys thank you Mods thank you uh all you birthday folks enjoy it and I will see you in the morning
