Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: Iran Conflict | Allen Jackson Now | July 15, 2026
  • Well, good evening and welcome to nashville.
  • 00:00:23.081 --> 00:00:25.383
  • I'm alan jackson.
  • 00:00:25.383 --> 00:00:26.918
  • Less than a month after the united states
  • 00:00:26.918 --> 00:00:28.753
  • And iran reached what many hoped would be a temporary truce,
  • 00:00:28.753 --> 00:00:31.857
  • The conflict has flared up again.
  • 00:00:31.857 --> 00:00:33.792
  • Iran has resumed attacks
  • 00:00:33.792 --> 00:00:35.227
  • On commercial shipping in the persian gulf.
  • 00:00:35.227 --> 00:00:37.529
  • They're targeting supertankers
  • 00:00:37.529 --> 00:00:38.930
  • And threatening one of the world's
  • 00:00:38.930 --> 00:00:40.031
  • Most critical maritime trade routes.
  • 00:00:40.031 --> 00:00:42.734
  • Well, president trump responded by announcing the restart
  • 00:00:42.734 --> 00:00:45.504
  • Of a u.s.
  • 00:00:45.504 --> 00:00:46.738
  • Naval blockade of iranian ports, declaring that american forces
  • 00:00:46.738 --> 00:00:49.808
  • Had severely degraded iran's navy,
  • 00:00:49.808 --> 00:00:52.077
  • Their missile
  • 00:00:52.077 --> 00:00:53.211
  • Program, their drone production, and their air defenses.
  • 00:00:53.211 --> 00:00:55.814
  • And while the military developments
  • 00:00:55.814 --> 00:00:57.115
  • Remain central to this story,
  • 00:00:57.115 --> 00:00:59.050
  • Their consequences are beginning to reach
  • 00:00:59.050 --> 00:01:01.086
  • Well beyond the battlefield,
  • 00:01:01.086 --> 00:01:02.821
  • Into energy markets and to global trade
  • 00:01:02.821 --> 00:01:04.923
  • And the broader economy.
  • 00:01:04.923 --> 00:01:06.791
  • President trump has now proposed not only securing
  • 00:01:06.791 --> 00:01:09.494
  • The strait of hormuz,
  • 00:01:09.494 --> 00:01:10.762
  • It's a narrow passage through which nearly one
  • 00:01:10.762 --> 00:01:12.597
  • Fifth of the world's oil supply moves every day,
  • 00:01:12.597 --> 00:01:15.233
  • But requiring ships that transit those waters
  • 00:01:15.233 --> 00:01:17.435
  • To pay for the protection.
  • 00:01:17.435 --> 00:01:18.803
  • The united states provides.
  • 00:01:18.803 --> 00:01:20.839
  • Well, after making that announcement,
  • 00:01:20.839 --> 00:01:22.407
  • The gulf nations took notice.
  • 00:01:22.407 --> 00:01:24.109
  • They promptly called president trump and committed
  • 00:01:24.109 --> 00:01:26.311
  • To making trade and investment deals and requested the trump
  • 00:01:26.311 --> 00:01:29.447
  • Not follow through on charging the transit fee.
  • 00:01:29.447 --> 00:01:32.217
  • Trump has agreed.
  • 00:01:32.217 --> 00:01:33.818
  • And while these events are happening
  • 00:01:33.818 --> 00:01:35.120
  • Thousands of miles
  • 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:36.388
  • Away, americans may soon feel the effects much closer to home.
  • 00:01:36.388 --> 00:01:40.358
  • Oil prices
  • 00:01:40.659 --> 00:01:41.860
  • Have already moved higher on fears of escalating conflict
  • 00:01:41.860 --> 00:01:44.829
  • If shipping through the strait is disrupted.
  • 00:01:44.829 --> 00:01:46.598
  • The consequences could ripple through the broader u.s.
  • 00:01:46.598 --> 00:01:49.334
  • Economy.
  • 00:01:49.334 --> 00:01:50.769
  • Well, is this simply another chapter
  • 00:01:50.769 --> 00:01:52.370
  • In the long confrontation with iran, or are we witnessing
  • 00:01:52.370 --> 00:01:55.473
  • The emergence of a new american strategy,
  • 00:01:55.473 --> 00:01:58.510
  • One that combines military strength with economic leverage?
  • 00:01:58.510 --> 00:02:01.880
  • It'll reshape global trade and energy security.
  • 00:02:01.880 --> 00:02:04.783
  • And what should americans be watching over the weeks ahead
  • 00:02:04.783 --> 00:02:07.185
  • To understand
  • 00:02:07.185 --> 00:02:08.220
  • Not only what's happening in the middle east,
  • 00:02:08.220 --> 00:02:09.788
  • But what it could mean for them financially?
  • 00:02:09.788 --> 00:02:12.424
  • We live in a turbulent world.
  • 00:02:13.058 --> 00:02:14.826
  • Any place to put your finger on the globe?
  • 00:02:14.826 --> 00:02:16.494
  • There's been a conflict.
  • 00:02:16.494 --> 00:02:17.929
  • It's not an easy time to be peaceful.
  • 00:02:17.929 --> 00:02:20.565
  • Iran has demonstrated that their word is simply
  • 00:02:20.565 --> 00:02:23.001
  • No good, that they're
  • 00:02:23.001 --> 00:02:24.169
  • Going to be a rogue player in the community of nations,
  • 00:02:24.169 --> 00:02:27.739
  • Whether they're attacking vessels
  • 00:02:27.739 --> 00:02:29.074
  • Going through the strait of hormuz
  • 00:02:29.074 --> 00:02:30.642
  • Or they're threatening the annihilation
  • 00:02:30.642 --> 00:02:32.277
  • Of whole groups of people, or they're sponsoring
  • 00:02:32.277 --> 00:02:34.779
  • Terror groups like hamas, hezbollah and the houthis.
  • 00:02:34.779 --> 00:02:38.617
  • In reality,
  • 00:02:38.950 --> 00:02:40.185
  • We have a 47 year track record of what their intentions are.
  • 00:02:40.185 --> 00:02:43.688
  • Iran has terrorized the whole persian gulf.
  • 00:02:43.688 --> 00:02:46.324
  • They simply have to be addressed.
  • 00:02:46.324 --> 00:02:48.660
  • Iran even launched drone attacks on oman.
  • 00:02:48.660 --> 00:02:51.930
  • Now, while the attack on oman is noteworthy.
  • 00:02:51.930 --> 00:02:54.132
  • They have served as the middleman
  • 00:02:54.132 --> 00:02:55.567
  • In recent negotiations between the u.s.
  • 00:02:55.567 --> 00:02:57.702
  • And iran,
  • 00:02:57.702 --> 00:02:58.770
  • Hoping to be the peacemaker to help bridge the gap
  • 00:02:58.770 --> 00:03:01.473
  • Toward a peaceful resolution.
  • 00:03:01.473 --> 00:03:03.041
  • I believe what the trump administration
  • 00:03:03.908 --> 00:03:05.243
  • Has done in confronting
  • 00:03:05.243 --> 00:03:06.378
  • Iran has been enormously helpful for global stability.
  • 00:03:06.378 --> 00:03:10.615
  • Previous administrations acted like they didn't notice.
  • 00:03:10.615 --> 00:03:13.618
  • They didn't notice the islamic regime.
  • 00:03:13.618 --> 00:03:15.220
  • They didn't notice
  • 00:03:15.220 --> 00:03:15.987
  • The expanded terrorist influence
  • 00:03:15.987 --> 00:03:17.689
  • That they were projecting into our world.
  • 00:03:17.689 --> 00:03:19.991
  • We have to understand
  • 00:03:19.991 --> 00:03:21.026
  • The nature of governments, and by the authority
  • 00:03:21.026 --> 00:03:23.328
  • Of these governments have over the people.
  • 00:03:23.328 --> 00:03:25.530
  • We must maintain in our imagination
  • 00:03:25.530 --> 00:03:27.699
  • That good and evil exist,
  • 00:03:27.699 --> 00:03:29.901
  • And nations represent expressions of good and evil.
  • 00:03:29.901 --> 00:03:33.071
  • The iranian regime and this calendar year alone
  • 00:03:33.071 --> 00:03:36.107
  • Have killed over 50,000 of their own people.
  • 00:03:36.107 --> 00:03:39.477
  • That simply shouldn't be okay with us.
  • 00:03:39.477 --> 00:03:41.813
  • I would suggest that we're going to have
  • 00:03:41.813 --> 00:03:43.148
  • To become more astute consumers of information.
  • 00:03:43.148 --> 00:03:45.684
  • Pay attention to the world we're living in.
  • 00:03:45.684 --> 00:03:47.919
  • There are loud voices saying the economy is going to crater.
  • 00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:51.356
  • All sorts of dire predictions.
  • 00:03:51.356 --> 00:03:53.291
  • Fear broadcasted over the airwaves.
  • 00:03:53.291 --> 00:03:56.294
  • Here are a few predictions that were said at the beginning
  • 00:03:56.294 --> 00:03:58.763
  • Of this conflict.
  • 00:03:58.763 --> 00:04:00.265
  • Rising energy costs will push up prices for foods,
  • 00:04:00.265 --> 00:04:03.034
  • Goods and daily essentials, straining household budgets.
  • 00:04:03.034 --> 00:04:06.371
  • Disruptions to fuel supply
  • 00:04:06.938 --> 00:04:08.340
  • Could lead to potential food shortages.
  • 00:04:08.340 --> 00:04:11.142
  • The united nations warned that more than 32 million
  • 00:04:11.142 --> 00:04:13.778
  • People worldwide
  • 00:04:13.778 --> 00:04:15.013
  • Could be plunged
  • 00:04:15.013 --> 00:04:16.181
  • Into poverty by the economic fallout from the iran war.
  • 00:04:16.181 --> 00:04:19.517
  • Now, let's go back and look at some of
  • 00:04:19.517 --> 00:04:20.685
  • The predictions from a year ago when president trump
  • 00:04:20.685 --> 00:04:23.355
  • First unveiled the reciprocal tariff plan.
  • 00:04:23.355 --> 00:04:25.790
  • The ceo of the largest financial institution in the u.s.
  • 00:04:25.790 --> 00:04:28.860
  • Said the recession was the likely outcome.
  • 00:04:28.860 --> 00:04:32.230
  • Famous commentators on cnbc
  • 00:04:32.230 --> 00:04:34.599
  • Were saying that the market would crash,
  • 00:04:34.599 --> 00:04:36.267
  • That retirement savings would significantly diminish.
  • 00:04:36.267 --> 00:04:38.903
  • Well, now, fast forward to today.
  • 00:04:39.671 --> 00:04:41.740
  • And those same experts, they're singing a very different tune.
  • 00:04:41.740 --> 00:04:45.610
  • The messages from the media are conflicting.
  • 00:04:45.610 --> 00:04:48.813
  • Just because we see fearful headlines doesn't
  • 00:04:48.813 --> 00:04:52.250
  • Mean we have to lead our lives dominated by fear.
  • 00:04:52.250 --> 00:04:55.520
  • Fear will paralyze you.
  • 00:04:55.520 --> 00:04:56.654
  • Fear will freeze you and make you immobile.
  • 00:04:56.654 --> 00:04:59.691
  • Well, some of us are world class worriers.
  • 00:04:59.691 --> 00:05:02.427
  • Some of us have allowed our personalities
  • 00:05:02.427 --> 00:05:04.396
  • To be formed around worry that quite literally defines us.
  • 00:05:04.396 --> 00:05:08.566
  • But here's the reality.
  • 00:05:08.566 --> 00:05:09.634
  • Worrying doesn't help.
  • 00:05:09.634 --> 00:05:11.536
  • The old english word for worry.
  • 00:05:11.536 --> 00:05:13.238
  • It means to choke in the way a wolf would worry a lamb
  • 00:05:13.238 --> 00:05:16.641
  • When it grabbed the lamb by the throat.
  • 00:05:16.641 --> 00:05:18.510
  • Worry will choke you.
  • 00:05:18.510 --> 00:05:20.378
  • And jesus said, worrying about tomorrow is simply not fruitful.
  • 00:05:20.378 --> 00:05:24.082
  • We forfeit our peace.
  • 00:05:24.082 --> 00:05:26.384
  • So let's determined to offload our worry and let go of anxiety
  • 00:05:26.384 --> 00:05:30.588
  • In the midst of contradictory messaging and fear.
  • 00:05:30.588 --> 00:05:33.892
  • Let's be willing and available to hear god's voice.
  • 00:05:33.892 --> 00:05:37.595
  • Let's begin the habit of meditating on the things of god
  • 00:05:37.595 --> 00:05:40.298
  • And opening our hearts and minds to the holy spirit.
  • 00:05:40.298 --> 00:05:43.635
  • Give him our worry and our fear.
  • 00:05:43.635 --> 00:05:46.538
  • When we learn to receive from the lord in these ways,
  • 00:05:46.538 --> 00:05:48.807
  • We'll be filled with his presence and his peace.
  • 00:05:48.807 --> 00:05:52.377
  • Well, in a
  • 00:05:52.677 --> 00:05:53.711
  • Moment, joining us will be george c, the chairman
  • 00:05:53.711 --> 00:05:56.014
  • Of annandale capital, coming to us from dallas.
  • 00:05:56.014 --> 00:05:59.584
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:05:59.584 --> 00:06:08.009
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:06:08.009 --> 00:06:15.334
  • Well, tonight
  • 00:06:15.701 --> 00:06:16.936
  • We're joined by the chairman of annandale capital, george c.
  • 00:06:16.936 --> 00:06:20.072
  • Welcome back to the show, george.
  • 00:06:20.072 --> 00:06:23.142
  • Always great to be here, alan.
  • 00:06:23.142 --> 00:06:24.410
  • Thanks for having me.
  • 00:06:24.410 --> 00:06:25.511
  • I want to start with a soundbite from president trump
  • 00:06:25.511 --> 00:06:28.080
  • And his comment on iran and their leadership.
  • 00:06:28.080 --> 00:06:30.683
  • Listen to what he said.
  • 00:06:30.683 --> 00:06:32.284
  • We had to deal with them two days ago.
  • 00:06:32.284 --> 00:06:34.620
  • And then they said, oh, we can't make that deal.
  • 00:06:34.620 --> 00:06:36.722
  • We have to negotiate it further.
  • 00:06:36.722 --> 00:06:38.691
  • And this is what they've done for 47 years.
  • 00:06:38.691 --> 00:06:41.827
  • The difference is nobody negotiated like i do.
  • 00:06:41.827 --> 00:06:45.764
  • And this should have been done by bush and obama.
  • 00:06:45.764 --> 00:06:49.034
  • And biden and people before them.
  • 00:06:49.034 --> 00:06:52.137
  • Frankly, it's 47 years they've been ripping off
  • 00:06:52.137 --> 00:06:55.107
  • Everybody and really hurting and killing thousands of people.
  • 00:06:55.107 --> 00:06:58.177
  • Well, the cease fire is over, and trump is saying
  • 00:06:59.178 --> 00:07:01.747
  • That america will ensure
  • 00:07:01.747 --> 00:07:03.382
  • We'll be the guardian of the strait of hormuz.
  • 00:07:03.382 --> 00:07:06.685
  • What are your thoughts on this ongoing conflict?
  • 00:07:06.685 --> 00:07:10.489
  • Well, it's been a very highly complex and difficult operation.
  • 00:07:10.489 --> 00:07:15.194
  • And we've we vacillated wildly between,
  • 00:07:15.194 --> 00:07:18.597
  • You know, a couple of weeks ago,
  • 00:07:18.597 --> 00:07:19.798
  • He said, these are great people.
  • 00:07:19.798 --> 00:07:21.300
  • And i really enjoyed talking to them.
  • 00:07:21.300 --> 00:07:22.902
  • And they're rational and they can be reasonable.
  • 00:07:22.902 --> 00:07:25.137
  • Now he's he's gone back to their crazy,
  • 00:07:25.137 --> 00:07:27.573
  • Which they've been pretty crazy for decades now.
  • 00:07:27.573 --> 00:07:30.109
  • So that's not surprising.
  • 00:07:30.109 --> 00:07:32.011
  • I just think, you know, you want to be sober minded
  • 00:07:32.011 --> 00:07:34.547
  • About war and combat and the loss of life
  • 00:07:34.547 --> 00:07:36.882
  • That has to result from that, both on our side
  • 00:07:36.882 --> 00:07:39.685
  • And on the iranian side, because there's there's a lot of
  • 00:07:39.685 --> 00:07:42.421
  • Innocent iranians.
  • 00:07:42.421 --> 00:07:43.422
  • You're going to suffer from this, too.
  • 00:07:43.422 --> 00:07:44.690
  • But i'm very, very pleased that he's gone back to
  • 00:07:44.690 --> 00:07:47.793
  • Raking them with
  • 00:07:48.193 --> 00:07:49.328
  • With new bombing campaigns and new nautical campaigns
  • 00:07:49.328 --> 00:07:52.464
  • From the navy.
  • 00:07:52.464 --> 00:07:53.399
  • And i think we really the only language
  • 00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:56.068
  • They understand is, is being brought to heel
  • 00:07:56.068 --> 00:07:58.571
  • And being punished severely by the u.s. military.
  • 00:07:58.571 --> 00:08:01.440
  • And so i'm very pleased we're doing that
  • 00:08:01.440 --> 00:08:03.042
  • Instead of trying to negotiate with them. it just never works.
  • 00:08:03.042 --> 00:08:06.111
  • Well, president trump has threatened
  • 00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:08.480
  • Not to sign the housing bill when it comes to his desk
  • 00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:11.350
  • Until congress passes the save america act.
  • 00:08:11.350 --> 00:08:14.987
  • There were some republicans that didn't vote for it as well.
  • 00:08:14.987 --> 00:08:17.957
  • There's the housing bill.
  • 00:08:17.957 --> 00:08:19.191
  • Really solve any problems for americans?
  • 00:08:19.191 --> 00:08:22.595
  • You know, i think that
  • 00:08:23.062 --> 00:08:24.496
  • He's going to basically just not not veto the housing bill.
  • 00:08:24.496 --> 00:08:27.800
  • So i think it's eventually going to go
  • 00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:29.034
  • Through, irrespective
  • 00:08:29.034 --> 00:08:30.069
  • Of the save america act, which the republicans
  • 00:08:30.069 --> 00:08:32.504
  • Just are going to throw over the filibuster.
  • 00:08:32.504 --> 00:08:34.540
  • There's very good reasons to keep the filibuster.
  • 00:08:34.540 --> 00:08:37.409
  • And so i don't think that's really a negative thing
  • 00:08:37.409 --> 00:08:40.145
  • That we're that we're not going to do away the filibuster.
  • 00:08:40.145 --> 00:08:42.314
  • The democrats would use that to do all sorts
  • 00:08:42.314 --> 00:08:44.016
  • Of horrible things if they got back into power
  • 00:08:44.016 --> 00:08:46.418
  • In the senate and control the presidency as well.
  • 00:08:46.418 --> 00:08:48.887
  • So the housing bill's got a few good things in it.
  • 00:08:48.887 --> 00:08:51.557
  • I'm really not excited
  • 00:08:51.557 --> 00:08:52.925
  • About the part of it, though, where it says that you certain
  • 00:08:52.925 --> 00:08:56.228
  • Corporations can't buy numerous amounts of housing.
  • 00:08:56.228 --> 00:09:00.299
  • I think that's kind of a restraint on trade,
  • 00:09:00.299 --> 00:09:02.901
  • A restraint on capitalism,
  • 00:09:02.901 --> 00:09:04.470
  • And i'm not really pleased with that.
  • 00:09:04.470 --> 00:09:05.904
  • I think that's a bad provision. so it's a mixed bag.
  • 00:09:05.904 --> 00:09:08.073
  • Well, the commerce department recently announced that the us
  • 00:09:09.241 --> 00:09:11.543
  • Economy grew
  • 00:09:11.543 --> 00:09:12.645
  • At a faster pace than expected in the first quarter.
  • 00:09:12.645 --> 00:09:15.514
  • I suppose that's good news, but what does it mean
  • 00:09:15.514 --> 00:09:17.716
  • For the economy, for the balance of our year?
  • 00:09:17.716 --> 00:09:21.220
  • Yeah, the economy remains on fire.
  • 00:09:21.220 --> 00:09:23.322
  • I feel like that it's underestimated
  • 00:09:23.322 --> 00:09:25.557
  • How having a president that is so pro-business as
  • 00:09:25.557 --> 00:09:28.594
  • President trump, it really gives kind of almost say
  • 00:09:28.594 --> 00:09:31.930
  • Psychic or esoteric boost to the economy
  • 00:09:31.930 --> 00:09:35.034
  • Beyond all the data and the hard numbers.
  • 00:09:35.034 --> 00:09:36.969
  • People just feel more confident about growth when you've got
  • 00:09:36.969 --> 00:09:40.205
  • A very pro growth, pro-business american president in office.
  • 00:09:40.205 --> 00:09:44.043
  • I think that's helped a lot.
  • 00:09:44.043 --> 00:09:45.310
  • And i think the ai and the data center, economic development,
  • 00:09:45.310 --> 00:09:49.214
  • The capital expenditures are hard to wrap your mind around.
  • 00:09:49.214 --> 00:09:52.317
  • I mean, it's
  • 00:09:52.317 --> 00:09:53.285
  • Hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars
  • 00:09:53.285 --> 00:09:54.687
  • This year, last year and next year.
  • 00:09:54.687 --> 00:09:57.056
  • And that's contributed.
  • 00:09:57.056 --> 00:09:58.424
  • I think most people estimate
  • 00:09:58.424 --> 00:09:59.625
  • At least half of the growth we've had in the country so far.
  • 00:09:59.625 --> 00:10:02.027
  • The other sectors of the economy are a little more sluggish.
  • 00:10:02.027 --> 00:10:05.097
  • But the american juggernaut,
  • 00:10:05.097 --> 00:10:07.066
  • The private sector, is still as strong
  • 00:10:07.066 --> 00:10:08.600
  • As ever and flies in the face of all these doomsayers
  • 00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:11.770
  • Who've been predicting
  • 00:10:11.770 --> 00:10:12.838
  • A recession for five, six, seven years now.
  • 00:10:12.838 --> 00:10:14.807
  • It just hadn't happened.
  • 00:10:14.807 --> 00:10:16.141
  • You know, when you see the impact of somebody
  • 00:10:17.009 --> 00:10:18.510
  • That leads with a pro-business mindset and attitude,
  • 00:10:18.510 --> 00:10:21.580
  • How do you reconcile
  • 00:10:22.047 --> 00:10:23.215
  • People being elected to office are selected as candidates
  • 00:10:23.215 --> 00:10:26.285
  • That are promoting socialism, if not just outright communism?
  • 00:10:26.285 --> 00:10:29.521
  • It seems to be so contradictory in the face of the strength.
  • 00:10:29.521 --> 00:10:33.292
  • How do we how is that happening?
  • 00:10:33.292 --> 00:10:36.795
  • I think you've you've really got the most divided country.
  • 00:10:36.795 --> 00:10:39.932
  • It's almost a cliche now, but it's probably the most
  • 00:10:39.932 --> 00:10:42.267
  • Divided country since the civil war.
  • 00:10:42.267 --> 00:10:44.870
  • And it's really broken down on the 30 or so states
  • 00:10:44.870 --> 00:10:47.372
  • That are red states
  • 00:10:47.372 --> 00:10:48.340
  • Of the 20 or so states that are blue states.
  • 00:10:48.340 --> 00:10:50.609
  • And the blue states seem to embrace this
  • 00:10:50.609 --> 00:10:53.979
  • Perspective that that democratic socialism,
  • 00:10:53.979 --> 00:10:56.615
  • Whatever the heck that means, which is probably a buzzword
  • 00:10:56.615 --> 00:10:58.751
  • For at least half communist, if not two thirds
  • 00:10:58.751 --> 00:11:01.553
  • Communist, is a good thing for the working man
  • 00:11:01.553 --> 00:11:04.356
  • And woman in the the lower class, and it's just not.
  • 00:11:04.356 --> 00:11:08.193
  • We've proven for years that having the highest gdp
  • 00:11:08.193 --> 00:11:11.764
  • In the world of a developed country
  • 00:11:11.764 --> 00:11:14.399
  • Like the united states does per capita,
  • 00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:16.902
  • Lifts all boats and helps all people.
  • 00:11:16.902 --> 00:11:19.138
  • We brought so many people out of poverty
  • 00:11:19.138 --> 00:11:20.973
  • Through the capitalistic democratic system over the last
  • 00:11:20.973 --> 00:11:24.610
  • Many decades of the last century in this century.
  • 00:11:24.610 --> 00:11:27.780
  • And to go against that
  • 00:11:27.780 --> 00:11:28.647
  • And start trying to redistribute based on
  • 00:11:28.647 --> 00:11:31.750
  • Who has and who has not,
  • 00:11:31.750 --> 00:11:33.318
  • As opposed to merit, just goes against
  • 00:11:33.318 --> 00:11:35.053
  • Every american value i've stood for and believed in
  • 00:11:35.053 --> 00:11:37.756
  • All my life.
  • 00:11:37.756 --> 00:11:39.458
  • Well, the new fed
  • 00:11:39.892 --> 00:11:40.993
  • Chair, kevin walsh, recently held his first meeting.
  • 00:11:40.993 --> 00:11:43.796
  • He didn't cut rates, but nine of the 18 voting members
  • 00:11:43.796 --> 00:11:46.832
  • Projected a rate hike before the end of this year.
  • 00:11:46.832 --> 00:11:50.269
  • What are your thoughts
  • 00:11:50.269 --> 00:11:51.236
  • As you're monitoring the rates in our economy?
  • 00:11:51.236 --> 00:11:54.439
  • I would love to see behind closed doors
  • 00:11:54.439 --> 00:11:57.075
  • Walsh's interaction with president trump,
  • 00:11:57.075 --> 00:11:58.977
  • Because president trump
  • 00:11:58.977 --> 00:12:00.012
  • Just flayed his predecessor, chairman powell,
  • 00:12:00.012 --> 00:12:03.649
  • For not cutting rates aggressively last year.
  • 00:12:03.649 --> 00:12:06.285
  • And this year, both.
  • 00:12:06.285 --> 00:12:07.920
  • And now the president seems to be giving chairman
  • 00:12:07.920 --> 00:12:10.889
  • Warsh a long runway in terms of how he determines
  • 00:12:10.889 --> 00:12:13.892
  • What to do with interest rates.
  • 00:12:13.892 --> 00:12:15.027
  • So there's clearly more personal trust there.
  • 00:12:15.027 --> 00:12:17.830
  • And he may have to raise interest rates
  • 00:12:17.830 --> 00:12:19.631
  • A time or two to to bat back inflation, especially if we shut
  • 00:12:19.631 --> 00:12:23.569
  • The straight
  • 00:12:23.569 --> 00:12:24.403
  • And shut down iranian oil and gas
  • 00:12:24.403 --> 00:12:26.371
  • And the price of commodities goes way up again.
  • 00:12:26.371 --> 00:12:28.207
  • So i think the president's
  • 00:12:28.207 --> 00:12:29.708
  • Doing him a big favor to not rattle the saber him,
  • 00:12:29.708 --> 00:12:32.077
  • Even though the fed should remain independent.
  • 00:12:32.077 --> 00:12:33.912
  • And i think chairman warsh will be very independent.
  • 00:12:33.912 --> 00:12:36.181
  • But rates are not going to
  • 00:12:36.181 --> 00:12:37.649
  • Differ too dramatically from where they are now.
  • 00:12:37.649 --> 00:12:39.718
  • They'll probably go up a little or down a little eventually.
  • 00:12:39.718 --> 00:12:42.588
  • But, george, we need to take a short break.
  • 00:12:42.588 --> 00:12:44.089
  • I hope you'll stay with us for another segment.
  • 00:12:44.089 --> 00:12:46.592
  • And for those of you watching, if you got your phone
  • 00:12:47.626 --> 00:12:49.394
  • Nearby, you can try logging on to aj now.com.
  • 00:12:49.394 --> 00:12:52.631
  • We'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions on these topics.
  • 00:12:52.631 --> 00:12:56.101
  • We'll be right back. you.
  • 00:12:56.101 --> 00:13:05.003
  • We'll be right back. you.
  • 00:13:05.003 --> 00:13:10.983
  • And we're back now with the chairman of annandale
  • 00:13:11.950 --> 00:13:13.886
  • Capital, george c, at the recent nato summit.
  • 00:13:13.886 --> 00:13:17.990
  • President trump secured
  • 00:13:17.990 --> 00:13:19.157
  • Several deals involving allies investing in the u.s., us
  • 00:13:19.157 --> 00:13:23.395
  • Defense companies moving, moving to expand production
  • 00:13:23.395 --> 00:13:26.298
  • In europe, some estimating
  • 00:13:26.298 --> 00:13:28.400
  • Its roughly $3 billion in deals and joint ventures.
  • 00:13:28.400 --> 00:13:32.237
  • Somehow that seems to have gotten buried in the news cycle.
  • 00:13:32.237 --> 00:13:35.274
  • Should we consider that a success?
  • 00:13:35.274 --> 00:13:38.043
  • Most definitely.
  • 00:13:38.043 --> 00:13:38.977
  • And i would point to one other thing, too.
  • 00:13:38.977 --> 00:13:41.046
  • That's a really compelling back to capitalism
  • 00:13:41.046 --> 00:13:44.249
  • And what
  • 00:13:44.249 --> 00:13:45.050
  • It's the best system on the planet,
  • 00:13:45.050 --> 00:13:46.652
  • Even though it's got flaws for sure.
  • 00:13:46.652 --> 00:13:48.620
  • And democracy is that we basically have created
  • 00:13:48.620 --> 00:13:51.523
  • A whole new cottage industry in the last
  • 00:13:51.523 --> 00:13:53.325
  • 10 to 20 years in the defense area,
  • 00:13:53.325 --> 00:13:55.394
  • Because there have been
  • 00:13:55.394 --> 00:13:56.495
  • A handful of juggernauts, whether it's lockheed
  • 00:13:56.495 --> 00:13:59.364
  • Or raytheon or some of these companies
  • 00:13:59.364 --> 00:14:01.099
  • That kind of have control.
  • 00:14:01.099 --> 00:14:02.200
  • But general dynamics have controlled
  • 00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:03.769
  • Most of the defense spending in the country.
  • 00:14:03.769 --> 00:14:05.938
  • And there's been a huge revolution
  • 00:14:05.938 --> 00:14:07.639
  • In silicon valley where they've suddenly become
  • 00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:10.175
  • Pro-military pro-america, as opposed to anti-military
  • 00:14:10.175 --> 00:14:13.211
  • Like they had been for decades.
  • 00:14:13.211 --> 00:14:14.846
  • You have all these startup
  • 00:14:14.846 --> 00:14:16.181
  • Companies in the drone area, in the satellite area,
  • 00:14:16.181 --> 00:14:19.217
  • In the missile area, and the missile defense area
  • 00:14:19.217 --> 00:14:22.020
  • That are making america stronger
  • 00:14:22.020 --> 00:14:23.355
  • By giving the government more options
  • 00:14:23.355 --> 00:14:25.090
  • Of great defense companies to do business with and
  • 00:14:25.090 --> 00:14:28.360
  • And by much more modern,
  • 00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:30.529
  • Much more effective, much more life
  • 00:14:30.529 --> 00:14:31.997
  • Protecting military weaponry that the major contractors
  • 00:14:31.997 --> 00:14:35.500
  • Have gotten lazy on and haven't been able to do.
  • 00:14:35.500 --> 00:14:37.235
  • So that's that's a very exciting thing.
  • 00:14:37.235 --> 00:14:39.304
  • And these companies will be able to sell
  • 00:14:39.304 --> 00:14:40.605
  • To our allies around the world as well.
  • 00:14:40.605 --> 00:14:43.041
  • Well, you know, you mentioned silicon valley
  • 00:14:43.041 --> 00:14:44.609
  • Becoming more pro-american.
  • 00:14:44.609 --> 00:14:46.378
  • When we celebrated the 4th of july,
  • 00:14:46.378 --> 00:14:48.113
  • We heard big segments
  • 00:14:48.113 --> 00:14:49.348
  • Of america, major cities, governors, people in industry
  • 00:14:49.348 --> 00:14:53.118
  • Refusing to participate in the 4th of july celebration.
  • 00:14:53.118 --> 00:14:57.356
  • Have we arrived at a place we can disagree with policies,
  • 00:14:57.356 --> 00:14:59.791
  • But surely we can have a respect for the nation we live in.
  • 00:14:59.791 --> 00:15:03.095
  • It is unique in the world, and to argue anything
  • 00:15:03.095 --> 00:15:05.197
  • Other is is either ignorance or stubbornness,
  • 00:15:05.197 --> 00:15:08.300
  • I don't understand.
  • 00:15:08.300 --> 00:15:10.068
  • Yeah, i think it's back to the red state.
  • 00:15:10.969 --> 00:15:12.571
  • Blue state divide.
  • 00:15:12.571 --> 00:15:13.572
  • You saw an awful lot more of that
  • 00:15:13.572 --> 00:15:14.840
  • In blue states than red states.
  • 00:15:14.840 --> 00:15:16.575
  • I have to salute new york city, though,
  • 00:15:16.575 --> 00:15:18.310
  • Because i watch their fireworks
  • 00:15:18.310 --> 00:15:19.544
  • Celebration and their performance.
  • 00:15:19.544 --> 00:15:21.480
  • And that was exceptional.
  • 00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:22.547
  • And it was very patriotic
  • 00:15:22.547 --> 00:15:23.915
  • And had great imagery, and it was really fun to see.
  • 00:15:23.915 --> 00:15:26.785
  • And i want to tip my hat, too, to lake city, colorado,
  • 00:15:26.785 --> 00:15:29.054
  • Where my family spent the 4th of july
  • 00:15:29.054 --> 00:15:30.589
  • And had one of the most patriotic parades
  • 00:15:30.589 --> 00:15:33.258
  • You'll ever see in your life.
  • 00:15:33.258 --> 00:15:34.426
  • And lots of kudos to america.
  • 00:15:34.426 --> 00:15:36.395
  • So patriotism is alive and well.
  • 00:15:36.395 --> 00:15:38.630
  • You just have to look forward a little harder these days.
  • 00:15:38.630 --> 00:15:40.966
  • So after i watched the fireworks in washington, d.c.,
  • 00:15:40.966 --> 00:15:44.002
  • My backyard felt a little bit paltry.
  • 00:15:44.002 --> 00:15:46.238
  • But i'm going to celebrate nonetheless.
  • 00:15:46.238 --> 00:15:48.473
  • The trumpet to celebrate our ways.
  • 00:15:49.207 --> 00:15:52.144
  • The trump accounts officially launched last week with an a.
  • 00:15:52.144 --> 00:15:55.247
  • It's an unprecedented program to give the next generation
  • 00:15:55.247 --> 00:15:58.483
  • Kind of a head start at investing in america.
  • 00:15:58.483 --> 00:16:01.486
  • What's your advice to the parents of young children?
  • 00:16:01.486 --> 00:16:04.990
  • Yeah, that's an easy one.
  • 00:16:04.990 --> 00:16:06.058
  • And i want to salute the president
  • 00:16:06.058 --> 00:16:07.659
  • For a wonderful policy choice he's made there.
  • 00:16:07.659 --> 00:16:10.128
  • He's investing in his children, his grandchildren
  • 00:16:10.128 --> 00:16:13.432
  • And his great grandchildren, which is a wonderful thing.
  • 00:16:13.432 --> 00:16:15.667
  • And i want to tip my hat to michael delta,
  • 00:16:15.667 --> 00:16:17.469
  • Who put up $6 billion to support this program
  • 00:16:17.469 --> 00:16:20.839
  • And give young people a head start.
  • 00:16:20.839 --> 00:16:22.707
  • Parents should just put the money
  • 00:16:22.707 --> 00:16:24.109
  • Into a stock market index fund
  • 00:16:24.109 --> 00:16:25.977
  • And bet on america and never, never look back at it
  • 00:16:25.977 --> 00:16:28.413
  • And just let it grow for the next 50, 60, 70 years.
  • 00:16:28.413 --> 00:16:32.050
  • They'll be able to ensure their descendants
  • 00:16:32.050 --> 00:16:34.453
  • Have a have a nice pile of money to protect them in retirement.
  • 00:16:34.453 --> 00:16:37.556
  • One day. that's what they should do.
  • 00:16:37.556 --> 00:16:39.858
  • It's encouraging to see somebody looking forward.
  • 00:16:39.858 --> 00:16:42.561
  • They're not just taking what they can.
  • 00:16:42.561 --> 00:16:44.596
  • I saw a new fed draft paper indicated that illegal
  • 00:16:44.596 --> 00:16:46.865
  • Immigration accounted for roughly 30% of growth
  • 00:16:46.865 --> 00:16:49.468
  • In home and rent prices between 2021 and 2024,
  • 00:16:49.468 --> 00:16:54.106
  • All under the biden administration.
  • 00:16:54.106 --> 00:16:55.974
  • It seemed like more tangible proof that that open border
  • 00:16:55.974 --> 00:16:59.811
  • Was draining resources and opportunities away from us.
  • 00:16:59.811 --> 00:17:03.381
  • Do you think the general public
  • 00:17:03.381 --> 00:17:04.316
  • Are ever going to acknowledge that?
  • 00:17:04.316 --> 00:17:07.252
  • Yeah, i think the general public has come along
  • 00:17:07.252 --> 00:17:10.188
  • Primarily 70 and 80% of the country
  • 00:17:10.188 --> 00:17:12.257
  • That opening the floodgates
  • 00:17:12.257 --> 00:17:14.159
  • Of illegal
  • 00:17:14.159 --> 00:17:15.327
  • Immigration in our borders is a terrible policy choice
  • 00:17:15.327 --> 00:17:18.163
  • And will make life more miserable for most americans.
  • 00:17:18.163 --> 00:17:20.899
  • So i think that that door, maybe
  • 00:17:20.899 --> 00:17:23.435
  • Hopefully, is permanently shut.
  • 00:17:23.435 --> 00:17:24.736
  • We'll have to wait and see.
  • 00:17:24.736 --> 00:17:26.037
  • But i i'm a little suspicious
  • 00:17:26.037 --> 00:17:27.506
  • Of blaming increase in housing on on illegal immigrants.
  • 00:17:27.506 --> 00:17:30.876
  • I'm sure the feds got good data to back that up,
  • 00:17:30.876 --> 00:17:33.078
  • But i think it was much more
  • 00:17:33.078 --> 00:17:34.379
  • President biden's spending policies in the fed
  • 00:17:34.379 --> 00:17:36.648
  • Being to too late to raise rates and the inflationary pressure
  • 00:17:36.648 --> 00:17:39.918
  • We saw during the biden administration.
  • 00:17:39.918 --> 00:17:41.419
  • I bet that's where most of the housing inflation came from.
  • 00:17:41.419 --> 00:17:44.389
  • You know, i know the objectives and the way the system is
  • 00:17:44.389 --> 00:17:46.424
  • Put together is that it isn't politicized.
  • 00:17:46.424 --> 00:17:49.194
  • But in recent years, we've watched the fed
  • 00:17:49.194 --> 00:17:51.496
  • And the economic activity.
  • 00:17:51.496 --> 00:17:52.697
  • It seems to me it's been pulled way
  • 00:17:52.697 --> 00:17:54.266
  • Into the political machinations of d.c..
  • 00:17:54.266 --> 00:17:58.270
  • Do you have any hope that they can separate
  • 00:17:58.270 --> 00:17:59.804
  • Those enough to make choices that are really
  • 00:17:59.804 --> 00:18:01.173
  • Best for the american people?
  • 00:18:01.173 --> 00:18:02.807
  • Yeah, you're you're seeing a
  • 00:18:03.408 --> 00:18:04.609
  • Very countervailing influence on that.
  • 00:18:04.609 --> 00:18:06.545
  • You had dei and esg and political correctness
  • 00:18:06.545 --> 00:18:09.981
  • Kind of infect all our great american institutions, right?
  • 00:18:09.981 --> 00:18:13.485
  • The military, academia, the government,
  • 00:18:13.485 --> 00:18:16.788
  • All these
  • 00:18:16.788 --> 00:18:17.989
  • Pillars of american society were infected by this terrible
  • 00:18:17.989 --> 00:18:21.092
  • Groupthink, a very unwise and foolish
  • 00:18:21.092 --> 00:18:25.030
  • Thought process processes in terms of making policy.
  • 00:18:25.030 --> 00:18:27.899
  • And i think there's a real counter trend against that.
  • 00:18:27.899 --> 00:18:29.701
  • I think warsh will not let that run rampant in the fed.
  • 00:18:29.701 --> 00:18:33.438
  • The fed is really basically to keep prices low
  • 00:18:33.438 --> 00:18:35.941
  • And to get us to full employment and do both at the same time.
  • 00:18:35.941 --> 00:18:39.344
  • And i think he'll be laser focused on that.
  • 00:18:39.344 --> 00:18:42.047
  • Secretary hegseth, whatever you think of his performance
  • 00:18:42.047 --> 00:18:44.549
  • Is definitely going after the military
  • 00:18:44.549 --> 00:18:46.985
  • And trying to eliminate all esg and ai.
  • 00:18:46.985 --> 00:18:49.554
  • And you're seeing a counter trend in academia, too.
  • 00:18:49.554 --> 00:18:51.590
  • So i think there's a lot of hope for the silly,
  • 00:18:51.590 --> 00:18:54.559
  • Politically correct notions going by the wayside.
  • 00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:57.495
  • Amen.
  • 00:18:57.495 --> 00:18:58.496
  • Well, george, i thank you for your time today.

  • 00:19:00.498 --> 00:19:01.733
  • You kind of help cut through the clutter.
  • 00:19:01.733 --> 00:19:03.501

  • And thank you for your emails.
  • 00:19:30.029 --> 00:19:31.364
  • We always enjoy hearing your perspectives and thoughts.
  • 00:19:31.364 --> 00:19:34.734
  • Becky in kansas city wrote, you instruct us
  • 00:19:34.734 --> 00:19:37.837
  • That we are called to lead with a biblical worldview.
  • 00:19:37.837 --> 00:19:40.906
  • In doing so, we do encounter individuals
  • 00:19:40.906 --> 00:19:43.309
  • Or groups of individuals who believe in god and jesus.
  • 00:19:43.309 --> 00:19:46.679
  • However, somehow, probably in keeping with the deception
  • 00:19:46.679 --> 00:19:49.382
  • Which is thrown
  • 00:19:49.382 --> 00:19:50.449
  • About the question and even believe that the bible
  • 00:19:50.449 --> 00:19:51.984
  • Is not actually the word of god,
  • 00:19:51.984 --> 00:19:54.487
  • We need to be able to lead and communicate this in language
  • 00:19:54.487 --> 00:19:56.856
  • And vernacular, which they will understand
  • 00:19:56.856 --> 00:19:58.691
  • So that they can we can lead them to question
  • 00:19:58.691 --> 00:20:01.727
  • And discern the correct truth of god's word.
  • 00:20:01.727 --> 00:20:04.463
  • Can you give us some tools to use in this?
  • 00:20:04.463 --> 00:20:07.933
  • Yeah, i think so.
  • 00:20:08.367 --> 00:20:09.835
  • You know, the people who don't accept any authority
  • 00:20:09.835 --> 00:20:12.605
  • Of scripture that that usually can't be your beginning point.
  • 00:20:12.605 --> 00:20:15.708
  • But we do have a resource in revelation
  • 00:20:15.708 --> 00:20:17.743
  • That says that we overcome satan,
  • 00:20:17.743 --> 00:20:19.145
  • The believers on earth, overcome satan
  • 00:20:19.145 --> 00:20:21.414
  • By the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony.
  • 00:20:21.414 --> 00:20:24.684
  • Your god's story is irrefutable.
  • 00:20:24.684 --> 00:20:27.753
  • It's not subject to opinion.
  • 00:20:27.753 --> 00:20:29.488
  • It's your god story. what god has done in your life.
  • 00:20:29.488 --> 00:20:32.224
  • When i was a young boy, my mom was healed of cancer.
  • 00:20:32.224 --> 00:20:36.429
  • The doctors had given her a death sentence
  • 00:20:36.429 --> 00:20:39.098
  • And in response to a prayer, we weren't even christians yet.
  • 00:20:39.098 --> 00:20:41.567
  • God healed her without medical treatment.
  • 00:20:41.567 --> 00:20:44.136
  • So when i meet somebody who says they don't believe god heals,
  • 00:20:44.136 --> 00:20:46.939
  • I don't argue with them.
  • 00:20:46.939 --> 00:20:48.207
  • I just tell them that
  • 00:20:48.207 --> 00:20:49.442
  • I got to enjoy my mom for 50 plus years after god intervened
  • 00:20:49.442 --> 00:20:53.079
  • In our family. your god story is irrefutable.
  • 00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:55.981
  • Share it with people. it's a powerful tool.
  • 00:20:55.981 --> 00:20:58.484

  • Not only for the guest you have on,
  • 00:21:02.521 --> 00:21:04.357
  • But for your no nonsense reporting of each day's events,
  • 00:21:04.357 --> 00:21:06.959
  • Good or bad.
  • 00:21:06.959 --> 00:21:07.927
  • God bless you and your team.
  • 00:21:07.927 --> 00:21:10.363
  • Well, thank you susan, and i'll join you
  • 00:21:10.363 --> 00:21:12.131
  • In inviting god's blessings on our team,
  • 00:21:12.131 --> 00:21:13.999
  • Because i can't sit here
  • 00:21:13.999 --> 00:21:15.534
  • And share
  • 00:21:15.534 --> 00:21:16.535
  • This little bit with you without the help of
  • 00:21:16.535 --> 00:21:17.503
  • A lot of really clever people.
  • 00:21:17.503 --> 00:21:19.538
  • Thanks for your prayers.

  • David a from washington wrote, the place
  • 00:21:21.574 --> 00:21:24.577
  • Where we worship
  • 00:21:24.577 --> 00:21:25.611
  • The privacy of our home a hiking trail
  • 00:21:25.611 --> 00:21:27.680
  • Or a crowded church service.
  • 00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:29.415
  • Matters little to god.
  • 00:21:29.415 --> 00:21:31.550
  • He can never be limited to one place or confined to a building.
  • 00:21:31.550 --> 00:21:35.121
  • What does matter is how we worship publicly or privately.
  • 00:21:35.121 --> 00:21:38.624
  • Your thoughts?
  • 00:21:38.624 --> 00:21:40.192
  • Well, david, i agree in part.
  • 00:21:40.192 --> 00:21:41.627
  • I don't think you have to sit
  • 00:21:41.627 --> 00:21:42.728
  • In church to be a christ follower,
  • 00:21:42.728 --> 00:21:44.797
  • But i do believe you have to be in community in order to mature
  • 00:21:44.797 --> 00:21:48.200
  • As a christ follower.
  • 00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:49.735
  • There is a sharpening that takes place as we are in community.
  • 00:21:49.735 --> 00:21:53.005
  • We serve together.
  • 00:21:53.005 --> 00:21:54.373
  • We give generously.
  • 00:21:54.373 --> 00:21:55.708
  • There's something that happens in that way
  • 00:21:55.708 --> 00:21:57.610
  • That doesn't simply happen.
  • 00:21:57.610 --> 00:21:58.911
  • When i'm alone, communing with nature.
  • 00:21:58.911 --> 00:22:01.147
  • So it's not the building where we sit,
  • 00:22:01.147 --> 00:22:02.648
  • But it's one another we need in order to grow up in christ.
  • 00:22:02.648 --> 00:22:05.985
  • Thanks for your thoughts and for spending
  • 00:22:05.985 --> 00:22:07.486
  • A few moments of your day with us.
  • 00:22:07.486 --> 00:22:09.021
  • God's moving in the earth. let's be a part.
  • 00:22:09.021 --> 00:22:09.021
