| 0:00.0 | Hello, everybody. I'm John Fawson with this Great America show, Midday Update for Monday, February 3rd. |
| 0:05.7 | Hope you folks all had a great weekend. Your week's off to a great start. Promises made, promises kept. |
| 0:11.6 | The trade wars are underway. Oh, it's not really a trade war, but that's what the Marxist Dems want you to think when they |
| 0:17.6 | broadcasts on their mainstream Marxist networks, we're in a trade war, |

| 1:29.0 | succeed against President Trump, it would be the first person, at least in my lifetime, to |
