BECAUSE SHE LOVES BEING ON
TRIBAL LAND SO MUCH.
TAKE A LOOK.
>> IN FACT, LAST YEAR, JILL, MY
WIFE, TRAVELED WITH DEB TO THE
CHEROKEE IMMERSION SCHOOL IN
OKLAHOMA.
THE CHEROKEE NATION USED PART OF
ITS FUNDING TO START BUILDING A
SECOND SCHOOL, AND REVITALIZE
THE USE OF THE CHEROKEE
LANGUAGE.
BY THE WAY, SHE SPENT A LOT OF
TIME IN OTHER RESERVATIONS,
OTHER NATIONS, AS WELL.
I’M WORRIED SHE’S NOT GOING TO
COME HOME ONE OF THESE DAYS WHEN
SHE GOES.
[LAUGHTER]
YOU THINK I’M JOKING.
I’M TELLING YOU, IF I HEAR MORE
ABOUT THE NAVAJOS THEN I HEAR
ABOUT ME.
[LAUGHTER]
Y’ALL THINK I’M KIDDING.
>> Sean: WE DON’T THINK YOU’RE
KIDDING.
MEANWHILE, CALLING ON CONGRESS
TO PASS LEGISLATION TO AVERT A
MAJOR RAIL STRIKE THAT WOULD
FURTHER CRIPPLE THE ECONOMY.
THE HOUSE EARLIER TODAY PASSED A
BILL TO FORCE THE REAL WORKERS
BACK TO WORK, BUT IT IS STILL
FACING MAJOR HURDLES IN THE U.S.
SENATE.
JOINING US NOW, ECONOMIST STEVE
MOORE, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR
CHARLIE HURT.
WE HAVE GONE OVER THESE NUMBERS.
BIDEN INFLATION IS COSTING THE
AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD $7200 A YEAR.
GOING BACK TO RECORD HIGH GAS
PRICES.
WE WILL HAVE RECORD HEATING
PRICES THIS WINTER.
HE SAYS HE’S NOT GOING TO CHANGE
A THING, AND HE IS ADHERING TO
THIS POLICY OF NO DOMESTIC
ENERGY PRODUCTION, BUT HE IS
WILLING TO GO TO A MURDERING
DICTATOR THUG, MADURO, IN
VENEZUELA, AND MAKE THAT COUNTRY
RICH.
IT’S NOT EVEN A LEADER THIS
COUNTRY RECOGNIZES AS A
LEGITIMATE LEADER.
CAN YOU EXPLAIN THAT TO MAKE
HIM?
>> NO.
[LAUGHS]
I CAN’T EXPLAIN IT.
>> Sean: HELP ME OUT HERE.
>> I DON’T THINK ANYONE CAN
EXPLAIN THE LOGIC OF THIS ONE.
WE HAVE MORE OIL, GAS, AND COAL
THAN ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.
UNDER DONALD TRUMP, AS HE TALKED
ABOUT, WE CREATED SAUDI AMERICA.
DON’T FORGET, WHEN HE LEFT
OFFICE, SEAN, THE UNITED STATES
WAS THE TOP PRODUCER OF ENERGY
IN THE WORLD.
WE DIDN’T HAVE TO BREAK DOWN MY QUERY ABOUT OPEC
OR SAUDI ARABIA OR RUSSIA OR
COUNTRIES LIKE VENEZUELA.
I’VE GOT A PRESIDENT WHO -- WHAT
WAS IT, A COUPLE WEEKS AGO, HE
SAID WE ARE GOING TO STOP THE
DRILLING IN AMERICA.
AND YET, THEN, TWO WEEKS LATER,
SEAN, HE SAYS, BUT WE ARE GOING
TO ALLOW DRILLING IN VENEZUELA.
SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT, WE
ARE GOING TO GET OUR OIL AND GAS
AND COAL FROM CHINA?
FROM RUSSIA?
FROM VENEZUELA? FROM
IRAQ?
IRAQ? BUT WE
CAN’T GET HER IN TEXAS,
NORTH DAKOTA, ALASKA,
WEST VIRGINIA?
NO, I CAN’T EXPLAIN THAT.
IT’S NOT PUTTING AMERICAN FIRST,
IS TEMPTED.
IT’S PRETTY AMERICA LAST.
>> Sean: I THOUGHT THE
RAILROAD STRIKE HAD BEEN AVERTED
BECAUSE OF JOE’S INVOLVEMENT,
AND THAT WE ARE BACK TO IT, AND
NOW HE’S ASKING CONGRESS TO FIX
IT.
BUT HE WAS CLAIMING THAT HE WAS
THE MOST PRO-UNION PRESIDENT
EVER.
HOW DO YOU RECONCILE THAT?
>> IT’S A GIANT LIVE.
OF COURSE THE ONLY REASON WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT IT RIGHT NOW IS
BECAUSE THE MEDIA WAS ALL TOO
HAPPY TO COVER UP THE FACT THAT
JOE BIDEN HAD DONE NOTHING TO
RESOLVE THE SITUATION WITH THE
RAIL WORKERS BEFORE THE
ELECTION.
BUT THEY JUST HAD TO KEEP IT
UNDER WRAPS LONG ENOUGH TO GET
US THROUGH THE ELECTION.
NOW THAT THE ELECTION IS OVER,
SUDDENLY THE MEDIA IS WILLING TO
STATE AND TALK ABOUT THE
OBVIOUS, WHICH IS THAT WE STILL
HAVE A PENDING STRIKE.
AND YOU HAVE THE OCCUPANT OF THE
WHITE HOUSE WHO NOW CLAIMS TO BE
THE MOST PRO-WORKER, PRO-UNION
PRESIDENT WE’VE EVER HAD, AND
YET HE’S GETTING READY TO FORCE
THESE WORKERS TO GO BACK TO
WORK.
I’M NOT DISPUTING WHAT IS THE
RIGHT APPROACH HERE, BUT HE
CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS THE WAY
THE MEDIA IS ALL TOO HAPPY TO
ALLOW HIM.
YOU KNOW, THE ONE THING I’VE GOT
TO GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR, HE IS
CORRECT.
NO PRESIDENT HAS DONE MORE THAN
JOE BIDEN HAS DONE IN THE FIRST
TWO YEARS OF HIS ADMINISTRATION.
HE OPENED A SOUTHERN BORDER, HE
DESTROYED OUR ENERGY
INDEPENDENCE, HE DOUBLED THE
PRICE OF GASOLINE IN THIS
COUNTRY, HE HAD A DISASTROUS
WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN, HE
ALLOWED VLADIMIR PUTIN TO INVADE
UKRAINE, AND HE HAS USHERED IN
8% INFLATION.
SO, YEAH, MAYBE HE SAID THE ONE
TRUE THING.
NOBODY HAS DONE ANYTHING LIKE
THIS IN HISTORY.
>> Sean: LET ME ASK,
STEVE -- IF YOU LOOK AT THE DEAL
ON THE TABLE FOR THE REAL
WORKERS, THEY’RE GOING TO GET A
24% PAY INCREASE.
ON AVERAGE, MOST WORKERS WILL
GET ABOUT AN $11,000 BONUS.
THAT DOESN’T SOUND LIKE A
HORRIBLE DEAL TO ME.
>> WELL, THIS IS A FIASCO.
THIS IS A TOTAL FIASCO.
AND EGG ON THE FACE OF THIS
WHITE HOUSE.
WE HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE
FOR SIX MONTHS, THAT THIS STRIKE
MIGHT OCCUR.
WE CAN’T HAVE OUR REAL WORKERS
GOING ON STRIKE.
IT WOULD CAUSE ALL SORTS OF
PROBLEMS FOR THE AMERICAN
ECONOMY.
YET, REMEMBER, TWO OR THREE
WEEKS BEFORE THE ELECTION -- I
DON’T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER THIS,
SEAN -- THE PRESIDENT HAD A
PRESS CONFERENCE IN THE
ROSE GARDEN AT THE WHITE HOUSE
DECLARING VICTORY ON THIS.
"I’VE SOLVED THE PROBLEM!
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!"
HE TOOK A VICTORY LAP.
OF COURSE IT WAS ONLY TO PUNT
THE THING PASSED THE ELECTION.
THEN WE GET PAST THE ELECTION,
HE CAN’T SOLVE THE PROBLEM, AND
NOW HE’S PUNTING IT TO CONGRESS.
THAT’S NOT PRESIDENTIAL
LEADERSHIP.
THAT’S NOT WHAT PRESIDENT DOES.
THE REASON THESE WORKERS ARE SO
ANGRY, FRANKLY, WHEN YOU HAVE
15% INFLATION SINCE BIDEN CAME
INTO OFFICE, WORKERS ARE
AGITATED BECAUSE THEIR PAYCHECKS
ARE SHRINKING, SEAN.
>> Sean: WELL, CHARLIE, WHAT
HAPPENS IF WE GET A SITUATION
WHERE THEY PASS A LAW, AND THE
RAIL WORKERS DECIDE NOT TO GO
BACK TO WORK?
WILL THEY DO WHAT RONALD REAGAN
DID WITH THE AIR TRAFFIC
CONTROLLERS?
WITH A FIRE THEM?
WILL JOE BIDEN FIRE THE UNION
WORKERS?
WHAT WOULD THAT DO TO THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY’S RELATIONSHIP
WITH UNIONS?
>> THAT’S A GREAT QUESTION.
ON THE FACE OF IT, I WOULD SAY
THAT I DON’T THINK JOE BIDEN
WOULD DO ANYTHING THAT WOULD PUT
AMERICA FIRST, SO THAT’S THE
FIRST QUESTION.
BUT WOULD HE DO ANYTHING TO
PROTECT HIS POWER, TO PROTECT
DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS?
YEAH, I THINK HE WOULD DO
ANYTHING.
THE OTHER THING I THINK IT’S
IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER WITH THESE
RAIL WORKERS IS, THESE RAIL
WORKERS, WHO MAKE OVER -- ON
AVERAGE, OVER $100,000 A YEAR,
THEY ARE IN SUCH PAIN BECAUSE OF
THIS INFLATION THAT THEY ARE
TALKING ABOUT DOING A LOCKOUT
AND SHUTTING DOWN OUR RAILWAYS.
IMAGINE WHAT ALL THE OTHER
WORKERS IN THIS COUNTRY, MOST OF
WHOM MAKE IT BELOW $1,000 A
YEAR --
>> Sean: WAY BELOW.
>> IMAGINE HOW MUCH AGONY THEY
ARE IN RIGHT NOW.
THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THEY
DON’T HAVE THE POWER TO GET THE
ATTENTION.
>> Sean: AT THE END OF THE
DAY, THOUGH, PROBABLY WE THE
TAXPAYERS WILL KICK IN EVERY
TIME SOMEONE GETS ON AMTRAK.
