First, you may have noticed that the stock markets took a giant dive earlier this week and then it sort of climbed back up into reasonable area later this week because there's an awful lot of uncertainty regarding the economy. When there's a lot of uncertainty, you might want to take at least a portion of your savings and put it into something that has never been worth zero. I'm talking about precious metals. Right now, you've seen another month of record inflation. That could go up. Or maybe we'll just get stagflation. Or maybe we won't get inflation. We'll just get economic stagnation. In any case, a good store of value has always been and will continue to be gold. My insurance plan remains gold and silver from Birch Gold Group.

So Joe Biden continues to flounder about. I was off for a couple of days. I came back and Joe Biden continues to be in the low 40s in approval rating. He has no public events scheduled today, which makes sense since nothing's happening, apparently. Like nothing. We still have hundreds of Americans trapped behind enemy lines in Afghanistan. We have a giant crisis over at the border. We have unemployment rate ticking up, |
| 1:50.1 | at least more jobless claims this month. We've seen a lot of not great headlines from this |
| 1:55.3 | administration. But listen, Joe Biden needs his nap. He needs his rest. And unlike yours truly, where I take religiously |
| 2:02.1 | designated days of rest typically, Joe Biden just needs a day of rest like once every couple of days. |
| 2:06.8 | God worked for six days and on the seventh he rested. Joe Biden works for six hours and for the rest |
| 2:11.0 | of the week, he rests. That's essentially what he does. And in those six hours, he creates whole |
| 2:15.3 | universes of problems. The problem that the southern border continues to fester, according to Politico, the mass of thousands of Haitians at the U.S. Southern border has put the Biden administration in the exact place it's tried to avoid knee-deep in immigration politics. Well, that's the true tragedy, is that things might be bad for Joe Biden. That's the true problem here. In the past 24 hours, the White House has |
| 2:34.4 | responded to images and videos of aggressive tactics used by Border Patrol agents to corral those migrants |
| 2:38.8 | by supporting an internal investigation into the matter. What it hasn't done yet is figure out a |
| 2:43.6 | solution to the crowding and sanitary issues arising in what's become a makeshift encampment or stop |
| 2:48.3 | its policy of deporting migrants upon arrival. That's left the president and his team with few supporters and allies that is according to Politico. A coalition of more than 38 civil rights and immigrant advocacy leaders sent the White House a letter on Tuesday evening calling on Biden to immediately stop expulsions of all Haitians, some of whom arrived at the border community of Del Rio,, after fleeing violence and natural disaster in their home country. |
| 3:12.1 | Well, here's one problem with that particular narrative. A huge percentage of the Haitians who are now arriving, |
| 3:20.8 | are not arriving directly from Haiti. I mean, they're showing up in Del Rio, Texas, which suggests that they are not, in fact, taking a boat from Haiti to the border of the United States. |
| 3:44.2 | Many of them have been in Latin Central America for years. And then now they are figuring it's a good time to come because Joe Biden is president. The letter first provided to Politico marks a final straw, said Nana Guiamfi executive director of the Black Alliance for Just Immigration and Presidents of the National Conference of Black Lawyers. The coalition includes the ACLU, Human Rights Watch, and the leadership conference on civil and human rights and described the moment as a quote-unquote inflection point for Biden's commitment to a humane immigration policy. The letter says responsibility for the suffering and deaths |
| 3:48.6 | resulting from summary expulsions and removals now falls squarely on your administration |
| 3:52.4 | will be part of your enduring legacy. Deportation flights to Haiti must stop, though seeking |
