Welcome to the news and why it matters. I am Sarah Gonzalez. Happy Monday, Glenn.

Happy Monday to you, Sarah. Thank you. Top story, socialism, I think, and AOC.

All right, still. Yeah, I noticed I didn't get a pleasant, uh, no, greeting. Yeah, you did.

Um, I would go with a hardcore, uh, conservative Republican, uh, Howard Schultz.

Oh, yeah, big time. Good old conservative Howard Schultz. All right, Jason.

It's an absolute horror movie in the most literal sense right now in Venezuela. And what just happened over this weekend, actually Thursday, Friday,

either we did something or we didn't, but either way, it shows a very, very disturbing future.

All right, obviously a lot to get into, but first we want to thank our sponsor, American financing, Glenn.

American financing is a company that I've trusted for a very, very long time, uh, right after the O8 crash.

Um, they called me back and said, Hey, where's stable? Now will you voice our commercials?

And because I knew, because I knew them before going in and they, they pointed, they were the only banking people that I could talk to that would say,

I know trouble is coming. It's right around the corner. And we're not involved in it.

And I was like, yeah, I'll believe that when I see it. And they weren't. They were totally fine.

Um, I think that's happening again. What's important here is they weren't just totally fine.

All of the people who did loans with them are fine because they didn't build a house of cards.

They didn't buy into all of the, the, the nonsense that we were doing in the O8.

And those times are coming back. You need to refinance your home. You want a new loan for your home.

This is the company that I trust. And it is the number at the bottom of the screen. It's their American financing, American financing dot net.

Glenn, the Democrats and socialism.

So I just, um, you know, Jason and I spoke this weekend about something that Jason found that I wasn't unaware of.

Um, and I'm surprised because do you remember our investigative arm when we were at Fox?

I was putting a million dollars a year just in research of my own money when we were at Fox.
