Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: Media Distraction | Allen Jackson Now | July 29, 2025

Well.
00:00:17.175 --> 00:00:17.609
Good evening.
00:00:17.609 --> 00:00:18.610
I'm alan jackson, and welcome to nashville.
00:00:18.610 --> 00:00:20.612
It's getting easier to figure out why
00:00:20.612 --> 00:00:22.581
There's so much confusion across the country,
00:00:22.581 --> 00:00:24.883
But i look at what's really going on versus
00:00:24.883 --> 00:00:26.852
How the national media puts it out.
00:00:26.852 --> 00:00:29.221
Well, here's an example.
00:00:29.221 --> 00:00:30.222
Jeffrey epstein
00:00:30.222 --> 00:00:31.456
Has been mentioned four times as often as the revelations
00:00:31.456 --> 00:00:34.726
About how former president obama and his cia and fbi chiefs
00:00:34.726 --> 00:00:38.563
Rewrote intelligence information to make it look like
00:00:38.563 --> 00:00:41.733
President elect trump was working with the russians.
00:00:41.733 --> 00:00:45.003
Cnn and msnbc mentioned epstein
00:00:45.003 --> 00:00:47.372
More than 8000 times in the same period.
00:00:47.372 --> 00:00:50.709
They only mention what obama did
00:00:50.709 --> 00:00:52.277
To try to take down trump less than 2000 times.
00:00:52.277 --> 00:00:56.214
But now, caught in the public
00:00:56.214 --> 00:00:57.449
Eye, obama is former fbi director andrew mccabe.
00:00:57.449 --> 00:01:00.318
He went on the offense. listen to what he said.
00:01:00.318 --> 00:01:02.821
I see gabbard as simply an opportunist in this play race.
00:01:02.821 --> 00:01:06.391
She her star is falling.
00:01:06.391 --> 00:01:08.894
Her analysis was thrown out the window on iran.
00:01:08.894 --> 00:01:11.930
She embarrassed herself with that, that in that somewhat
00:01:11.930 --> 00:01:15.600
Bizarre video about nuclear weapons and japan.
00:01:15.600 --> 00:01:20.038
And so she's using this as an opportunity
00:01:20.906 --> 00:01:22.974
To get herself back into favor with the white house.
00:01:22.974 --> 00:01:24.976
That's my personal assessment.
00:01:24.976 --> 00:01:27.412
But, you know, this is, this seems to be kind of,
00:01:27.412 --> 00:01:31.283
The state of the union for, and what we're in right now.
00:01:31.283 --> 00:01:34.319
With former senator and ambassador scott brown.
00:01:35.320 --> 00:01:37.856
It's been in politics for a long time.
00:01:37.856 --> 00:01:39.991
He's running for new hampshire senate seat now.
00:01:39.991 --> 00:01:42.360
Welcome back, scott allen.
00:01:42.360 --> 00:01:44.696
Good, good.
00:01:44.696 --> 00:01:45.664
Good evening to you and all your viewers.
00:01:45.664 --> 00:01:47.966
Well, former president
00:01:47.966 --> 00:01:49.034
Obama says the evidence that he, brennan and comey
00:01:49.034 --> 00:01:52.003
Weaponized intelligence is just a distraction.
00:01:52.003 --> 00:01:55.407
Well, it sure seems like more than a distraction to me.
00:01:55.407 --> 00:01:57.676
Does it to you?
00:01:57.676 --> 00:01:59.177
Yeah. listen, i'm not a big fan of andrew mccabe.
00:01:59.177 --> 00:02:01.279
Bottom line is,
00:02:01.279 --> 00:02:02.781
You know, we need to have full disclosure in these.
00:02:02.781 --> 00:02:05.083
I'm glad these things are coming out, for sure.
00:02:05.083 --> 00:02:07.185
These are the people that cried russia, russia, russia and
00:02:07.185 --> 00:02:09.487
And diminished the president's first administration.
00:02:09.487 --> 00:02:12.424
He was always on on defense and really didn't give
00:02:12.424 --> 00:02:16.027
Him the credit that he was due on all the things
00:02:16.027 --> 00:02:18.663
That he was doing.
00:02:18.663 --> 00:02:19.831
And, you know, i'm glad he's there now.
00:02:19.831 --> 00:02:21.066
Obviously, fighting back and then to try to belittle,
00:02:21.066 --> 00:02:24.269
What the, you know, what tulsi gabbard is doing
00:02:24.269 --> 00:02:27.038
Is just typical,
00:02:27.038 --> 00:02:28.173
You know,
00:02:28.173 --> 00:02:29.107
They try to criticize the source instead of
00:02:29.107 --> 00:02:30.575
Looking at the actual issue, which is did he or did he not?
00:02:30.575 --> 00:02:34.613
And it seems clear by the evidence
00:02:34.613 --> 00:02:36.248
That there was
00:02:36.248 --> 00:02:37.249
Something going on that shouldn't have been going
00:02:37.249 --> 00:02:38.950
On, and they need to stop that sort of thing.
00:02:38.950 --> 00:02:41.553
Now they're looking for anything new in the epstein story.
00:02:41.553 --> 00:02:44.422
The wall street journal put out what they called an exclusive
00:02:44.422 --> 00:02:47.859
About a happy birthday note that president trump
00:02:47.859 --> 00:02:49.861
Supposedly sent long before he was in politics.
00:02:49.861 --> 00:02:53.098
Is that significant enough to drive four times
00:02:53.098 --> 00:02:55.634
More coverage than a president in this case?
00:02:55.634 --> 00:02:57.836
Barack obama, who weaponized intelligence
00:02:57.836 --> 00:03:00.572
Seems a little out of balance to me.
00:03:00.572 --> 00:03:02.540
Yeah, it was.
00:03:02.907 --> 00:03:04.109
And once again, these people the russia, russia, russia,
00:03:04.109 --> 00:03:06.211
You know, that hoax,
00:03:06.211 --> 00:03:07.612
They're pushing that narrative
00:03:07.612 --> 00:03:08.780
Because president trump's on a roll.
00:03:08.780 --> 00:03:10.682
Bottom line is, you know, look what
00:03:10.682 --> 00:03:12.651
What he's doing now with doing trade deals.
00:03:12.651 --> 00:03:15.153
Obviously, what he did with iran,
00:03:15.153 --> 00:03:16.521
Bombing it and getting rid of that
00:03:16.521 --> 00:03:18.123
Bully and, you know, bringing
00:03:18.123 --> 00:03:19.557
A whole host of countries to the table,
00:03:19.557 --> 00:03:21.693
To basically put america first, which is a good thing.
00:03:21.693 --> 00:03:24.996
So they're the ones
00:03:24.996 --> 00:03:26.197
That don't want to talk about all the great things,
00:03:26.197 --> 00:03:29.134
That president trump is doing.
00:03:29.134 --> 00:03:30.535
So they're going to continue
00:03:30.535 --> 00:03:31.636
With a kind of a new russia, russia, russia thing.
00:03:31.636 --> 00:03:34.606
I want to ask you about another example
00:03:35.473 --> 00:03:37.375
Of how the media tries to set the agenda.
00:03:37.375 --> 00:03:39.944
This morning, nbc said the epstein story
00:03:39.944 --> 00:03:42.681
Was following the president everywhere.
00:03:42.681 --> 00:03:45.417
Well, the truth is, epstein
00:03:45.417 --> 00:03:46.685
Had nothing to do with the big economic deal
00:03:46.685 --> 00:03:48.820
The president struck with the european union.
00:03:48.820 --> 00:03:51.222
But reporters
00:03:51.222 --> 00:03:52.324
Shouted out a question about epstein instead.
00:03:52.324 --> 00:03:55.093
So did it
00:03:55.093 --> 00:03:56.328
Follow him, or did the network keep it going by bringing it up?
00:03:56.328 --> 00:03:59.130
Is that how they do it?
00:03:59.631 --> 00:04:01.833
Yeah.
00:04:02.067 --> 00:04:02.734
Let's just throw it out there,
00:04:02.734 --> 00:04:04.269
See what sticks, and then do the soundbites.
00:04:04.269 --> 00:04:06.204
I mean, everyone's kind of used to it.
00:04:06.204 --> 00:04:07.439
Bottom line in what he did yesterday with the e.u.
00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:10.942
Deal is is amazing.
00:04:10.942 --> 00:04:13.244
I mean, now you have obviously you have
00:04:13.244 --> 00:04:15.213
Japan, you know, vietnam, the philippines,
00:04:15.213 --> 00:04:18.216
You know, now the e.u..
00:04:18.216 --> 00:04:19.884
I'll tell you what,
00:04:19.884 --> 00:04:20.852
China better come to the table very quickly.
00:04:20.852 --> 00:04:22.387
They're going to be left outside cold.
00:04:22.387 --> 00:04:24.723
This is a very big deal.
00:04:24.723 --> 00:04:26.124
The fact that they're buying our weapons.
00:04:26.124 --> 00:04:27.859
They're buying our natural gas. so we don't.
00:04:27.859 --> 00:04:29.761
They don't depend on russia.
00:04:29.761 --> 00:04:31.229
And remember, president trump told him when he was out,
00:04:31.229 --> 00:04:34.065
I think it was at the e.u.
00:04:34.065 --> 00:04:35.367
Or wherever he was talking.
00:04:35.367 --> 00:04:37.502
You know, in his first term,
00:04:37.502 --> 00:04:38.636
By the way,
00:04:38.636 --> 00:04:39.170
You got to step back
00:04:39.170 --> 00:04:40.271
From your dependance on russian oil and gas because,
00:04:40.271 --> 00:04:42.474
You know, they're going to basically control.
00:04:42.474 --> 00:04:44.042
And he was absolutely right.
00:04:44.042 --> 00:04:45.009
I agree with them.
00:04:45.009 --> 00:04:45.744
Then i agree with them now.
00:04:45.744 --> 00:04:48.113
But this is about access.
00:04:48.113 --> 00:04:49.681
We've talked about this before.
00:04:49.681 --> 00:04:50.915
This is
00:04:50.915 --> 00:04:51.816
This is obviously about trade imbalance,
00:04:51.816 --> 00:04:53.284
But it's about access into markets
00:04:53.284 --> 00:04:55.120
That we have not been able to get our, into.
00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:57.922
And i commend them for doing it.
00:04:57.922 --> 00:04:59.524
I think it's huge. it's huge.
00:04:59.524 --> 00:05:01.126
Well, the deal with the european union was big news.
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:05.163
Know people have been skeptical about
00:05:05.163 --> 00:05:06.464
What's going on with the economy,
00:05:06.464 --> 00:05:08.600
But it sure looks like the president
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:09.901
Is getting his way with just about everyone
00:05:09.901 --> 00:05:12.036
Except for the chinese so far.
00:05:12.036 --> 00:05:13.405
But how's that playing with the people of new hampshire?
00:05:13.405 --> 00:05:16.741
Well, it's a big deal.
00:05:16.741 --> 00:05:17.842
Obviously i just paid, what, 252 with my my bj's guy.
00:05:17.842 --> 00:05:21.813
It was just like costco or sam's down your way.
00:05:21.813 --> 00:05:24.649
And that's per gallon.
00:05:24.649 --> 00:05:26.217
And it's obviously a major savings.
00:05:26.217 --> 00:05:29.053
Down from what?
00:05:29.053 --> 00:05:30.021
When i first got home,
00:05:30.021 --> 00:05:31.856
You know, it was upside down 5 to $7 a gallon.
00:05:31.856 --> 00:05:34.993
Obviously, the border secure.
00:05:34.993 --> 00:05:36.161
That affects your northern border.
00:05:36.161 --> 00:05:38.163
But the things that he's doing
00:05:38.163 --> 00:05:39.264
When men and boys and women and girls sports
00:05:39.264 --> 00:05:41.199
Crushing the dreams of young ladies
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:42.834
That that press conference when he did that was was
00:05:42.834 --> 00:05:45.703
Fantastic.
00:05:45.703 --> 00:05:46.805
It just really showed how important, young ladies
00:05:46.805 --> 00:05:50.542
And young women are in today's society, especially in sports.
00:05:50.542 --> 00:05:54.546
There's so many things that he's doing, what he did with iran.
00:05:54.546 --> 00:05:57.282
People get it in new hampshire.
00:05:57.282 --> 00:05:59.284
I'm running against a guy that
00:05:59.284 --> 00:06:00.652
Basically is upside down on all those issues, boys
00:06:00.652 --> 00:06:03.121
And men and boys and women's sports didn't get the president
00:06:03.121 --> 00:06:05.557
Or the airman that flew the mission any credit whatsoever.
00:06:05.557 --> 00:06:08.726
So you need to go to congress for approval.
00:06:08.726 --> 00:06:10.795
Now, obama didn't do that when he went after bin laden.
00:06:10.795 --> 00:06:13.631
He didn't. he dropped 26,000 bombs.
00:06:13.631 --> 00:06:15.867
Kennedy didn't do it in the bay of pigs.
00:06:15.867 --> 00:06:17.535
No, he does, and he's doing exactly what he should be doing.
00:06:17.535 --> 00:06:20.371
And that's protecting our country's
00:06:20.371 --> 00:06:21.739
Interests and protecting israel, quite honestly.
00:06:21.739 --> 00:06:24.609
Well, scott, i'm in nashville.
00:06:25.210 --> 00:06:26.444
But what's the biggest issue in new hampshire these days?
00:06:26.444 --> 00:06:28.646
The economy, the border.
00:06:28.646 --> 00:06:30.181
What do the people care the most about?
00:06:30.181 --> 00:06:31.783
Well, the border obviously is important.
00:06:31.783 --> 00:06:34.152
What they want to make sure.
00:06:34.152 --> 00:06:35.286
And with those bedford and amherst moms,
00:06:35.286 --> 00:06:37.889
It is about the men and boys and women and girls
00:06:37.889 --> 00:06:39.924
Sport protecting our young women and young athletes,
00:06:39.924 --> 00:06:43.394
To be able to do their, their jobs
00:06:43.394 --> 00:06:45.964
And fulfill their dreams and get their scholarships.
00:06:45.964 --> 00:06:48.399
That's a big deal.
00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:49.534
Obviously, the economic issues is there.
00:06:49.534 --> 00:06:52.403
Just for reference to the price of gas,
00:06:52.403 --> 00:06:53.872
I just went shopping again today. i do a holiday shopping.
00:06:53.872 --> 00:06:56.241
You know,
00:06:56.241 --> 00:06:57.342
I have forever because my life buys junk all the time.
00:06:57.342 --> 00:07:00.144
But, you know, eggs are down, beef is down.
00:07:00.144 --> 00:07:02.814
There's a there's a lot of great signs.
00:07:02.814 --> 00:07:04.682
Is it going to take a little bit of time? yeah.
00:07:04.682 --> 00:07:06.451
They said all the tariffs are going to make everything go up.
00:07:06.451 --> 00:07:08.786
Well basically we hear that the lot of the foreign
00:07:08.786 --> 00:07:11.723
Goods, the tariffs on those foreign goods, it's
00:07:11.723 --> 00:07:13.691
Actually down us goods on us made products is going up.
00:07:13.691 --> 00:07:17.428
So is there going to be an adjustment period.
00:07:17.428 --> 00:07:19.364
A little bit.
00:07:19.364 --> 00:07:20.398
But we're seeing that it's kind of flatlining.
00:07:20.398 --> 00:07:21.966
And if the fed would reduce interest rates
00:07:21.966 --> 00:07:23.801
We would have a, you know, all engines,
00:07:23.801 --> 00:07:25.503
All cylinders going on that big engine.
00:07:25.503 --> 00:07:28.473
Well scott, please stay with us for another segment.
00:07:28.473 --> 00:07:30.475
I've got some other issues we'd like to cover.
00:07:30.475 --> 00:07:32.944
In the meantime, if you'd like to send
00:07:32.944 --> 00:07:34.512
In your thoughts or opinion of what we're discussing.
00:07:34.512 --> 00:07:36.848
I'd love to hear from you.
00:07:36.848 --> 00:07:38.116
Just go to aj now.com and hit the button to send me an email.
00:07:38.116 --> 00:07:41.686
We'll be right back.
00:07:41.686 --> 00:07:49.009
We'll be right back.
00:07:49.009 --> 00:07:53.134
We're back
00:07:53.434 --> 00:07:54.669
Now with candidate scott brown, the former senator and u.s.
00:07:54.669 --> 00:07:57.104
Ambassador.
00:07:57.104 --> 00:07:58.706
I'd like to go through some of the other priorities
00:07:58.706 --> 00:08:00.975
And what you're hearing from the folks
00:08:00.975 --> 00:08:02.376
You speak with as you're campaigning.
00:08:02.376 --> 00:08:04.579
Illegal immigration was a big issue in new england last year,
00:08:04.579 --> 00:08:07.882
Along with the fentanyl that came with it.
00:08:07.882 --> 00:08:10.251
What are you hearing about
00:08:10.251 --> 00:08:11.252
The ice efforts to stop the bad guys out there?
00:08:11.252 --> 00:08:14.388
Well, it depends where you live in new hampshire.
00:08:14.388 --> 00:08:16.724
Here.
00:08:16.724 --> 00:08:17.658
Governor, i, in the legislature, basically
00:08:17.658 --> 00:08:20.661
Signed legislation to allow them to work with ice.
00:08:20.661 --> 00:08:23.631
We don't have any sanctuary cities
00:08:23.631 --> 00:08:25.066
In new hampshire, but in bordering states.
00:08:25.066 --> 00:08:26.934
You know, it's a big deal.
00:08:26.934 --> 00:08:28.069
Massachusetts is just,
00:08:28.069 --> 00:08:29.904
Like, upside down on that is just spending billions
00:08:29.904 --> 00:08:32.039
To formerly house people
00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:33.841
That are here illegally, but not working with our
00:08:33.841 --> 00:08:36.077
Our ice agents and federal law enforcement
00:08:36.077 --> 00:08:38.212
Officials to basically get even the ones in jail.
00:08:38.212 --> 00:08:41.215
I mean, they're in jail.
00:08:41.215 --> 00:08:42.850
And so you're going to make the citizens pay for them in
00:08:42.850 --> 00:08:44.952
Jail, not just get them the heck out of the country,
00:08:44.952 --> 00:08:46.721
Give it ice, get them out of the country.
00:08:46.721 --> 00:08:48.723
And, you know, we'll talk later,
00:08:48.723 --> 00:08:50.157
Like the president said
00:08:50.157 --> 00:08:51.025
About certain sectors
00:08:51.025 --> 00:08:52.226
That may, you know, have earned an opportunity, but
00:08:52.226 --> 00:08:55.630
What they're doing is upside down.
00:08:55.630 --> 00:08:56.998
But in new hampshire,
00:08:56.998 --> 00:08:58.099
People are deeply concerned about
00:08:58.099 --> 00:09:00.368
Getting those criminal illegals out of here.
00:09:00.368 --> 00:09:02.503
We're blessed that in our cities
00:09:02.503 --> 00:09:03.938
We have a strong mayors who would do it.
00:09:03.938 --> 00:09:05.673
Jay ruiz in manchester is doing a great job.
00:09:05.673 --> 00:09:08.075
A lot of the crime
00:09:08.075 --> 00:09:09.176
And veterans are now housed who are on the streets.
00:09:09.176 --> 00:09:12.713
A lot of the crime is gone.
00:09:12.713 --> 00:09:14.215
The fentanyl and drug use
00:09:14.215 --> 00:09:16.217
Police have full authority and full cooperation
00:09:16.217 --> 00:09:19.720
With the mayor and the governor, and that matters.
00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:22.556
And i don't understand why the american citizens
00:09:22.556 --> 00:09:27.028
And the politicians,
00:09:27.028 --> 00:09:28.062
Especially the
00:09:28.062 --> 00:09:29.163
Democrats, period, are fighting with our ice agents
00:09:29.163 --> 00:09:32.933
Instead of fighting to get these criminal illegals out of here.
00:09:32.933 --> 00:09:36.504
Am i on a different planet or something?
00:09:36.504 --> 00:09:38.873
It's just crazy.
00:09:38.873 --> 00:09:40.741
Well, scott, i always appreciate the common sense
00:09:40.741 --> 00:09:42.743
You bring to the political discussion.
00:09:42.743 --> 00:09:44.645
The boston
00:09:44.645 --> 00:09:45.312
Mayor has made a point
00:09:45.312 --> 00:09:46.247
Of pushing back on the efforts
00:09:46.247 --> 00:09:47.748
To arrest the immigrants involved in crimes.
00:09:47.748 --> 00:09:50.217
She's even gone so far as to compare ice agents
00:09:50.217 --> 00:09:52.486
Who wear a mask to neo-nazi groups.
00:09:52.486 --> 00:09:55.389
Listen to this.
00:09:55.389 --> 00:09:57.625
I don't know of
00:09:57.625 --> 00:09:59.393
Any police department that routinely wears masks.
00:09:59.393 --> 00:10:04.031
We know that there are other groups that routinely wear
00:10:05.066 --> 00:10:07.301
Masks, and ac 131 routinely wears masks.
00:10:07.301 --> 00:10:11.105
Well, she's clearly in the same political club as the la
00:10:11.105 --> 00:10:13.841
Mayor and the socialist nominee for new york's mayor.
00:10:13.841 --> 00:10:17.645
But i'd like to know whether you think
00:10:17.645 --> 00:10:19.080
She has any following outside
00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:20.715
Of the most liberal sections of boston.
00:10:20.715 --> 00:10:23.184
Does she?
00:10:23.184 --> 00:10:24.485
Yeah.
00:10:24.485 --> 00:10:24.885
Listen,
00:10:24.885 --> 00:10:25.853
It's okay, though, for the criminals
00:10:25.853 --> 00:10:27.288
And the protesters and all the people
00:10:27.288 --> 00:10:28.756
That are trying to hurt the east asians to wear masks.
00:10:28.756 --> 00:10:31.492
But god forbid we protect the families
00:10:31.492 --> 00:10:33.494
And the livelihood of these
00:10:33.494 --> 00:10:34.829
Heroes who are doing their jobs,
00:10:34.829 --> 00:10:36.797
Protecting our country and fulfilling their oath
00:10:36.797 --> 00:10:39.767
And basically following the laws.
00:10:39.767 --> 00:10:41.802
If you don't like the laws, then go and elect somebody
00:10:41.802 --> 00:10:44.805
You know who's going to change them.
00:10:44.805 --> 00:10:45.940
They're following the laws.
00:10:45.940 --> 00:10:47.174
They have the authority to do exactly what they're doing.
00:10:47.174 --> 00:10:50.411
And a lot of these, these criminal illegals
00:10:50.411 --> 00:10:52.480
Basically already have removal orders.
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:54.348
They've already been adjudicated.
00:10:54.348 --> 00:10:55.583
They've already had their due process.
00:10:55.583 --> 00:10:57.017
They've had their hearings.
00:10:57.017 --> 00:10:58.119
Let's get them the heck out of here.
00:10:58.119 --> 00:11:00.321
So i think it's very important to protect the identity
00:11:00.321 --> 00:11:03.023
Of our men and women who are doing their jobs
00:11:03.023 --> 00:11:05.226
Because the the doxing and the threats to them
00:11:05.226 --> 00:11:08.729
And their families is very real, as you seen by the ambush
00:11:08.729 --> 00:11:11.699
In texas and, you know, a police officer just just killed,
00:11:11.699 --> 00:11:15.703
You know, a few days ago. yeah.
00:11:15.703 --> 00:11:18.439
She's she's, she's just i can't imagine who would vote for her.
00:11:18.439 --> 00:11:23.844
I hope i hope josh kraft wins.
00:11:23.844 --> 00:11:26.046
Bob kraft, son, because you need change in that city.
00:11:26.046 --> 00:11:29.583
Well, let's move to the economy.
00:11:30.217 --> 00:11:32.019
Well, there are a lot of signs that things are getting better.
00:11:32.019 --> 00:11:34.588
Some parts of the country still seem to be in kind
00:11:34.588 --> 00:11:36.624
Of a holding pattern
00:11:36.624 --> 00:11:37.725
About spending money or trying to buy a new house.
00:11:37.725 --> 00:11:40.995
You saw president trump trying to push the fed chief
00:11:40.995 --> 00:11:43.197
To lower interest rates when he took that
00:11:43.197 --> 00:11:44.765
Tour of the construction going on there.
00:11:44.765 --> 00:11:47.301
There's now some chatter on wall street
00:11:47.301 --> 00:11:49.170
That the fed might start lowering rates
00:11:49.170 --> 00:11:51.105
At least a quarter of a point,
00:11:51.105 --> 00:11:52.606
Perhaps even a half a point by the fall.
00:11:52.606 --> 00:11:55.075
How would that be received?
00:11:55.075 --> 00:11:56.644
Where you're at?
00:11:56.644 --> 00:11:58.312
Well, if you look at all the other central banks
00:11:58.312 --> 00:12:01.448
Throughout the world, we are the highest interest rates still.
00:12:01.448 --> 00:12:04.885
They've already lowered them.
00:12:04.885 --> 00:12:06.620
So what's the problem?
00:12:06.620 --> 00:12:07.888
You know,
00:12:07.888 --> 00:12:08.155
When i
00:12:08.155 --> 00:12:09.390
Think about that situation, i think it's clearly political.
00:12:09.390 --> 00:12:11.959
He doesn't like being bullied.
00:12:11.959 --> 00:12:13.627
That's obviously
00:12:13.627 --> 00:12:14.695
He doesn't like the, you know, the name calling.
00:12:14.695 --> 00:12:16.030
He doesn't like, you know, being called knucklehead.
00:12:16.030 --> 00:12:19.066
But you know what he's doing in terms of this issue.
00:12:19.066 --> 00:12:21.836
Even some of his board members say, yeah,
00:12:21.836 --> 00:12:23.737
We should be doing this
00:12:23.737 --> 00:12:24.605
Because that directly affects
00:12:24.605 --> 00:12:26.273
The ability for people to take out mortgages.
00:12:26.273 --> 00:12:28.709
And that's a good thing.
00:12:28.709 --> 00:12:30.110
And if we can just lower the rates to a proper number,
00:12:30.110 --> 00:12:33.247
I'm not saying go down to, you know, 0 or 4.
00:12:33.247 --> 00:12:35.816
You know, i'm talking about
00:12:35.816 --> 00:12:37.084
Let's get it competitive with the rest of the world, at least.
00:12:37.084 --> 00:12:40.054
And then because of all the money that's coming in
00:12:40.054 --> 00:12:42.056
And all the good things that are happening,
00:12:42.056 --> 00:12:43.524
Do you think we could maybe,
00:12:43.524 --> 00:12:44.758
You know, be a little creative and not keep following?
00:12:44.758 --> 00:12:48.062
You know, everybody else.
00:12:48.062 --> 00:12:49.296
Let's be leaders in this regard.
00:12:49.296 --> 00:12:51.432
And i think it'll jumpstart the housing market and enable
00:12:51.432 --> 00:12:54.134
Young people,
00:12:54.134 --> 00:12:55.302
Especially who want to buy homes, the ability to do so
00:12:55.302 --> 00:12:57.838
At a very good rate.
00:12:57.838 --> 00:12:59.106
And ultimately, my, my,
00:12:59.106 --> 00:13:00.641
If people say, well, what about the debt and deficit?
00:13:00.641 --> 00:13:02.509
Yeah, that's my number one issue is our national debt.
00:13:02.509 --> 00:13:05.179
I'm hoping that interest rates
00:13:05.179 --> 00:13:06.580
All around
00:13:06.580 --> 00:13:07.448
The board will ultimately go lower,
00:13:07.448 --> 00:13:08.816
And then we can refinance that debt
00:13:08.816 --> 00:13:10.584
And get a better rate to help save money there as well.
00:13:10.584 --> 00:13:13.187
Well, the people of new york city are trying to figure out
00:13:14.355 --> 00:13:16.657
If they really want a socialist for mayor.
00:13:16.657 --> 00:13:19.193
The media certainly put a spotlight on him,
00:13:19.193 --> 00:13:21.262
But i think a lot of that is because he's
00:13:21.262 --> 00:13:22.963
Stirring the pot, which creates a lot of clicks.
00:13:22.963 --> 00:13:26.100
I want to ask you,
00:13:26.100 --> 00:13:27.134
Do you see any real movement towards socialism?
00:13:27.134 --> 00:13:29.570
I apologize yeah.
00:13:29.570 --> 00:13:30.838
You know, there are people listening.
00:13:30.838 --> 00:13:33.941
Free, free free free. who doesn't want free?
00:13:33.941 --> 00:13:36.143
Yeah, i'll sign up right now, but it comes with a price.
00:13:36.143 --> 00:13:39.613
And that price is basically at the, at the jeopardy
00:13:39.613 --> 00:13:42.850
Of people who are more affluent, obviously, in new york city,
00:13:42.850 --> 00:13:46.787
But who say, let's tax the white neighborhoods
00:13:46.787 --> 00:13:48.822
Free, free, free, free busses, free this.
00:13:48.822 --> 00:13:50.891
How are you going to do
00:13:50.891 --> 00:13:51.725
A free grocery store as we've seen
00:13:51.725 --> 00:13:52.960
Those happen already in our country
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:55.329
And they're basically going bankrupt.
00:13:55.329 --> 00:13:57.097
We've seen them happen in other countries.
00:13:57.097 --> 00:13:59.466
The problem, i mean, he's overseas right now for the long.
00:13:59.466 --> 00:14:02.603
He was married a couple of months ago,
00:14:02.603 --> 00:14:03.771
And now he's on his honeymoon.
00:14:03.771 --> 00:14:05.139
He's got security guards with guns protecting him, yet
00:14:05.139 --> 00:14:07.975
He wants to basically get rid of the police and have the,
00:14:07.975 --> 00:14:10.678
You know,
00:14:10.678 --> 00:14:11.612
Community organizers or whatever counselors
00:14:11.612 --> 00:14:13.480
There be in charge of responding.
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:15.115
You imagine if that happened yesterday
00:14:15.115 --> 00:14:16.884
In new york city, you know.
00:14:16.884 --> 00:14:17.985
Oh, excuse me, sir, can you put down your gun?
00:14:17.985 --> 00:14:20.854
You know, come on. for the.
00:14:20.854 --> 00:14:22.256
This officer lost his life trying to protect other people.
00:14:22.256 --> 00:14:24.992
And others lost their lives.
00:14:24.992 --> 00:14:26.327
So, yeah,
00:14:26.327 --> 00:14:27.561
The problem is that there's basically four people in there.
00:14:27.561 --> 00:14:30.431
You know, someone ultimately, i think should drop out.
00:14:30.431 --> 00:14:33.600
I'm not sure who at this point.
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:35.035
I think it's still a little early,
00:14:35.035 --> 00:14:36.570
But i think the varnish and the tarnish is there.
00:14:36.570 --> 00:14:39.673
And we're going to
00:14:39.673 --> 00:14:40.708
Kind of peel back the potato, peel back
00:14:40.708 --> 00:14:42.776
The onion and see what's under there.
00:14:42.776 --> 00:14:44.144
And i think people are going to say,
00:14:44.144 --> 00:14:45.379
Yeah, the guy's a flimflam.
00:14:45.379 --> 00:14:47.648
Well, before we go,
00:14:48.115 --> 00:14:49.350
You're trying to flip a blue seat to a red in new hampshire.
00:14:49.350 --> 00:14:52.953
And you did that one successfully in massachusetts.
00:14:52.953 --> 00:14:55.255
And that wasn't just a blue sheet.
00:14:55.255 --> 00:14:56.857
It was a kennedy held seat
00:14:56.857 --> 00:14:58.225
That had been blue for nearly 50 years.
00:14:58.225 --> 00:15:00.494
Give us a quick update.
00:15:00.494 --> 00:15:01.428
How are you doing so far?
00:15:01.428 --> 00:15:02.830
Yeah.
00:15:02.830 --> 00:15:03.964
Listen, the it feels like 2010 and that magical moment.
00:15:03.964 --> 00:15:06.333
And i'm looking to make history again.
00:15:06.333 --> 00:15:08.035
You can go to scott brown.com and get involved.
00:15:08.035 --> 00:15:10.371
One dollars a bumper sticker.
00:15:10.371 --> 00:15:11.839
You can go up to whatever amount you want basically.
00:15:11.839 --> 00:15:14.508
But this is a real issue.
00:15:14.508 --> 00:15:15.743
And listen if we
00:15:15.743 --> 00:15:16.877
If north carolina, georgia and michigan don't pan out
00:15:16.877 --> 00:15:19.680
And we lose the house, this could determine
00:15:19.680 --> 00:15:21.348
Who's going to basically control the senate.
00:15:21.348 --> 00:15:23.183
And i think
00:15:23.183 --> 00:15:23.751
That's very important
00:15:23.751 --> 00:15:24.485
To protect
00:15:24.485 --> 00:15:25.519
The things that have been accomplished to date
00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:26.954
And the things that we can accomplish. moving forward.
00:15:26.954 --> 00:15:29.656
And, that's why i'm running, you know, there's a guy
00:15:29.656 --> 00:15:32.359
Running who's basically makes aoc look like rush limbaugh,
00:15:32.359 --> 00:15:35.596
And i don't want him to be the senator for 30 or 40 years.
00:15:35.596 --> 00:15:39.233
Well, scott, as always, great to have you on.
00:15:40.134 --> 00:15:41.935
I look forward to talking again soon. stay in touch.
00:15:41.935 --> 00:15:44.104
Thank you.
00:15:44.104 --> 00:15:45.205
Thank you. god bless you and your viewers. thanks.
00:15:45.205 --> 00:15:47.374
Well, in a moment, my thoughts on the hope ahead.
00:15:47.374 --> 00:15:50.244
And later you get the stage
00:15:50.244 --> 00:15:51.545
And we read out the emails you've sent us.
00:15:51.545 --> 00:15:53.514
I'll be right back.
00:15:53.514 --> 00:16:02.005
I'll be right back.
00:16:02.005 --> 00:16:05.530
Hey. we are living through a time
00:16:06.230 --> 00:16:07.732
Of confusion, manipulation and even deception.
00:16:07.732 --> 00:16:11.002
We saw congressmen and senators stand in front of cameras
00:16:11.002 --> 00:16:13.905
On a daily basis and say trump is a russian agent.
00:16:13.905 --> 00:16:17.708
We saw obama's
00:16:18.042 --> 00:16:18.976
Secretary of state, hillary clinton,
00:16:18.976 --> 00:16:20.812
And the
00:16:20.812 --> 00:16:22.013
Former director of the cia, john brennan, repeatedly say
00:16:22.013 --> 00:16:25.016
That the russians helped donald trump win in the 2016 election,
00:16:25.016 --> 00:16:29.153
And the legacy media happily ran with that narrative, with wall
00:16:29.153 --> 00:16:32.223
To wall coverage.
00:16:32.223 --> 00:16:34.292
Well, now, the director of national intelligence, tulsi
00:16:34.292 --> 00:16:36.627
Gabbard, has released classified documents
00:16:36.627 --> 00:16:39.130
Revealing that the obama era fbi and cia officials
00:16:39.130 --> 00:16:42.667
Were directed
00:16:42.667 --> 00:16:43.668
To take on verified intelligence
00:16:43.668 --> 00:16:45.603
And shape it into a false storyline.
00:16:45.603 --> 00:16:48.139
And the legacy media has largely ignored the truth.
00:16:48.139 --> 00:16:51.676
I was recently asked if the media tells lies for so long
00:16:51.676 --> 00:16:54.979
That they don't even know they're lying anymore.
00:16:54.979 --> 00:16:57.515
There could be a legitimate explanation,
00:16:57.515 --> 00:16:59.484
But it's more likely that their moral compass
00:16:59.484 --> 00:17:01.619
Was to become broken by either
00:17:01.619 --> 00:17:02.987
Living their lives in the absence of god,
00:17:02.987 --> 00:17:05.356
Or by walking too far into the darkness.
00:17:05.356 --> 00:17:08.159
If a person has no moral compass,
00:17:08.159 --> 00:17:09.794
They'll say whatever they need to say. that's self-serving.
00:17:09.794 --> 00:17:12.697
They think of life in terms of how do i get what i want?
00:17:12.697 --> 00:17:14.899
How do i get my objective?
00:17:14.899 --> 00:17:16.134
How do i get my agenda accomplished?
00:17:16.134 --> 00:17:18.503
I don't even think in terms of whether it's true or false.
00:17:18.503 --> 00:17:21.139
You just want to get what you want.
00:17:21.139 --> 00:17:23.007
Well, i would suggest to you that deception lies in a refusal
00:17:23.007 --> 00:17:25.910
To acknowledge the truth.
00:17:25.910 --> 00:17:27.445
Is a spiritual conflict more than a political one.
00:17:27.445 --> 00:17:30.515
Our goal for this program is to serve you
00:17:30.515 --> 00:17:32.416
By presenting you with the truth,
00:17:32.416 --> 00:17:34.152
Providing a biblical worldview
00:17:34.152 --> 00:17:35.720
Which doesn't shift based on the whims of culture.
00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:38.356
Tell a friend. spread the word.
00:17:38.356 --> 00:17:39.924
If we'll do that, i promise.
00:17:39.924 --> 00:17:41.492
There's more reasons for hope than despair.
00:17:41.492 --> 00:17:44.028
We'll be right back with your emails.
00:17:44.028 --> 00:17:53.010
We'll be right back with your emails.
00:17:53.010 --> 00:17:56.913
Thank you for spending a few minutes with us this evening.
00:17:58.080 --> 00:18:00.216
If you ever miss a live broadcast.
00:18:00.216 --> 00:18:02.084
Remember, you can always go to aj now.com.
00:18:02.084 --> 00:18:04.520
They're archived there.
00:18:04.520 --> 00:18:05.788
There's even a link
00:18:05.788 --> 00:18:06.722
Where you can send us an email if you'd like.
00:18:06.722 --> 00:18:07.757
Do there a highlight of the program.
00:18:07.757 --> 00:18:09.692
Janice w from florida emailed 600,000 children
00:18:09.692 --> 00:18:13.062
Lost on this side of the border.
00:18:13.062 --> 00:18:14.730
It's almost unbelievable.
00:18:14.730 --> 00:18:16.499
Now, can we pray in a helpful way for these lost ones?
00:18:16.499 --> 00:18:19.902
Well, janice, i do what i've been doing.
00:18:19.902 --> 00:18:21.304
I've been asking for god's grace and mercy for those children.
00:18:21.304 --> 00:18:24.207
I've been praying that the truth will be told
00:18:24.207 --> 00:18:27.076
So that they can be discovered, and that what's been hidden in
00:18:27.076 --> 00:18:30.146
The darkness will be brought to the light.
00:18:30.146 --> 00:18:31.914
We didn't lose 600,000 children
00:18:31.914 --> 00:18:33.549
Without a lot of adults being involved in that process.
00:18:33.549 --> 00:18:36.552
I want to do more than find the children.
00:18:36.552 --> 00:18:38.454
I want to find the perpetrators that who think who
00:18:38.454 --> 00:18:40.456
Trafficking in children is okay.
00:18:40.456 --> 00:18:42.592
It's not. and it's got to be stopped.
00:18:42.592 --> 00:18:45.361
Randy from california said,
00:18:45.962 --> 00:18:47.597
I watched your show with your guest, nelson toledo.
00:18:47.597 --> 00:18:50.600
Since i live in a sanctuary state.
00:18:50.600 --> 00:18:52.168
He mentioned writing to your representatives.
00:18:52.168 --> 00:18:53.970
How can we hold the governor and mayor accountable
00:18:53.970 --> 00:18:55.838
For trying to keep illegal immigrants here in our country?
00:18:55.838 --> 00:18:58.541
I appreciate all you do, and may god bless you.
00:18:58.541 --> 00:19:00.943
Well, randy, ultimately, i know it's the ballot box,
00:19:00.943 --> 00:19:03.012
Which in california can be a bit intimidating,
00:19:03.012 --> 00:19:05.147
But i think every time you use your voice, write a letter,
00:19:05.147 --> 00:19:07.416
Make a phone call.
00:19:07.416 --> 00:19:08.584
It adds to the momentum for the truth.
00:19:08.584 --> 00:19:11.120
You know, i'm reminded of daniel,
00:19:11.120 --> 00:19:12.955
The book in the old testament that bears his name.
00:19:12.955 --> 00:19:14.924
He's a slave in a foreign country.
00:19:14.924 --> 00:19:16.792
You make such a commitment to prayer
00:19:16.792 --> 00:19:18.394
That it causes him to be condemned to the lion's den.
00:19:18.394 --> 00:19:21.364
And when he's thrown into the lion's den,
00:19:21.364 --> 00:19:22.698
The lions are what happened to.
00:19:22.698 --> 00:19:23.766
Don't happen to be hungry that day.
00:19:23.766 --> 00:19:25.735
And the result is the sultan writes an edict
00:19:25.735 --> 00:19:28.671
That the god of daniel be worshiped across the empire.
00:19:28.671 --> 00:19:32.575
You may think your voice is small.
00:19:32.575 --> 00:19:34.110
That will even result in some persecution.
00:19:34.110 --> 00:19:36.312
But if you will use it for what's right.
00:19:36.312 --> 00:19:38.180
God gets engaged and that changes the equation.
00:19:38.180 --> 00:19:41.083
Kathy from arizona said, i'm always amazed when traveling
00:19:42.184 --> 00:19:44.887
That few if any, hotels, motels or resorts i use offer tbn.
00:19:44.887 --> 00:19:49.825
Therefore, i'm so grateful for your weekly reviews.
00:19:49.825 --> 00:19:51.961
All the episodes
00:19:51.961 --> 00:19:53.062
Are recorded at home, but a challenge to catch up
00:19:53.062 --> 00:19:55.865
On the ones i miss while i'm on a trip.
00:19:55.865 --> 00:19:58.701
Well, i can make a suggestion.
00:19:58.701 --> 00:19:59.835
You can get our app for alan jackson ministries
00:19:59.835 --> 00:20:02.405
Or a youtube app, and you can see the programs there.
00:20:02.405 --> 00:20:06.175
It's available even if the hotels aren't cooperating.
00:20:06.175 --> 00:20:08.878
Thank god for technology.
00:20:08.878 --> 00:20:11.447
I appreciate your time with us this evening.
00:20:11.447 --> 00:20:14.050
I'm alan jackson, and you have a wonderful evening.
00:20:14.050 --> 00:20:14.050
