KRATZ AND HIS LAST POINT IS.
MEANWHILE REPUBLICANS IN
CONGRESS ARE EXTREME KIND OF
CONTRADICTORY WELL, BUT I MEAN
, THAT’S THAT’S PUT OUT BY HIS
PEOPLE. JOE BIDEN IS THIS WEEK
THIS WEEKEND IN A SPRAWLING $20
MILLION HOUSE, OWNED BY A
BILLIONAIRE PAL OF HIS AS HE
LOOKS AT THE FUTURE WHEN YOU’RE
LIVING IN A $20 MILLION HOUSE,
THE FUTURE LOOKS REALLY GREAT.
AND SO YOU KNOW, HE IS SO
INSULATED. AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
AS YOU KNOW, IT’S A BUBBLE, BUT
IT WAS JUST EARLIER THIS YEAR
WHERE JOE BIDEN WAS TALKING
ABOUT, YOU KNOW, I WAS TALKING
TO MY NEIGHBOR MARIANNE. WHEN I
WAS OUT ON THE PORCH IN
DELAWARE, WE WERE IN THE
SUNROOM. AND SHE SAID, JOE, DID
YOU KNOW THAT HAMBURGER IS $5 A
POUND? WELL OF COURSE HE DIDN’T
KNOW. AND HE CERTAINLY DOESN’T
KNOW THE RIGHT NOW. MY
HAMBURGER AND MY GROCERY STORE
IN NEW JERSEY IS $8 A POUND AND
SO HE DOESN’T SEE WHAT WE SEE
BECAUSE HE’S INSULATED. AND SO
AS THE FAMILY GATHERS IN THE
$20 MILLION FABULOUS HOUSE UP
IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF
MASSACHUSETTS, THEY’RE GOING.
YOU KNOW, JOE, YOU’RE DOING A
HECK OF A JOB BECAUSE THEY’RE
READING THE SAME LIST. YOU JUST
PUT UP AND THEY’RE GOING TO THE
GREATEST PRESIDENT EVER. GO JOE
GO. THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT’S
HAPPENING. DOCTOR SAPPHIRE, AND
THAT’S A GREAT POINT. YOU KNOW
HIS NEIGHBOR TELLING HIM THAT
COSTS ARE HIGH. YOU KNOW, I
TWEETED OUT ONE OF THE POINTS,
WHICH WAS TACKLING INFLATION
AND LOWERING COSTS IS AN
ACCOMPLISHMENT. AND ONE PERSON
WROTE BACK TO ME. I MEAN,
THAT’S WORTH WORSE THAN THE
JULY 4TH TWEET IF I LOWERED HOT
DOG PRICES BY WHAT WAS IT 17
CENTS SAYING THAT YOU’VE
TACKLED IT WHEN WE’RE ALL
FEELING IT RIGHT. IT’S A LITTLE
BIT OF A SLAP IN THE FACE, AND
IT’S KIND OF LIKE SOMEONE
WRITING THEIR OWN EULOGY BEFORE
THEY DIED. JUST HOPING THAT AT
THEIR FUNERAL PEOPLE SAY
SOMETHING NICE ABOUT THEM, BUT
SO OBVIOUSLY THE FIRST ONE OF
SNARLING THE HIGH PRICES
EVERYONE CAN LAUGH AT THAT, BUT
I REALLY WAS STRUCK BY THE
SECOND ONE WHERE HE TOOK ON BIG
PHARMA, AND HE WON. OKAY HOLD
ON. LET’S TALK ABOUT THAT FOR A
SECOND. HE’S REFERRING TO THE
INFLATION REDUCTION ACT, WHERE
THEY HAVE BUT MEDICARE OUT OF
POCKET SPENDING, AND THEY HAVE
ALSO SAID IN 2026 ABOUT 10
DRUGS, THEY’LL BE ABLE TO
NEGOTIATE WITH THE
PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES YEARS . MAYBE YOU’LL SEE SOME OF
. MAYBE YOU’LL SEE SOME OF
THAT. BUT HOW
>> Kayleigh: I WANT TO PLAY
FOR YOU, AND I’M SURE THAT YOU
CAUGHT UP TO THIS PIER THE
PRESIDENT SAYING THAT HE IS NOT
DIRECTLY ENGAGED WITH HIS TALKS
AND MAY BE A STRIKE SITUATION
GOING ON WITH A DEADLINE AND
SAID THE UNION NEGOTIATES WITHIN
LEADERSHIP, HOWEVER,
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE SAID
SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
>> INDEED INVOLVED DIRECTLY.
BUT I DON’T WANT TO GET INTO
DETAILS AT THIS TIME, BUT HE HAS
BEEN INVOLVED.
THE PRESIDENT, I JUST SAID THE
PRESIDENT HAS BEEN DIRECTLY
INVOLVED.
HE’S BEEN IN TOUCH.
I SAID THIS IS THE THIRD TIME
DIRECTLY INVOLVED.
>> CAN YOU TALK ABOUT IT
MR. PRESIDENT?
>> I CAN’T BECAUSE ITS
NEGOTIATIONS.
>> HAVE YOU BEEN IN TOUCH WITH
ALL OF THESE?
>> WE HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH
ALL OF THE PARTIES.
I HAVE NOT DIRECTLY ENGAGED YET
WE ARE STILL TALKING.
>> Kat: THIS IS PAR FOR THE
COURSE FOR THE BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION.
YOU HAVE THE SECRETARY CLEANING
UP FOREIGN POLICY AND SO MANY
THINGS.
OH, WE ARE DISAVOWING EVERYTHING
THAT CAME OUT OF BIDEN’S MOUTH.
THEY ARE IN FOR A RUDE
AWAKENING.
ELON MUSK ON TWITTER BASICALLY
FACT-CHECKED THE WHITE HOUSE
TWEET THAT SAID SOCIAL SECURITY
CHECKS ARE RISING FOR THE FIRST
TIME IN TEN YEARS.
A LONG MUSK ON TWITTER SAID
ACTUALLY BECAUSE THE
COST-OF-LIVING ADJUSTMENTS.
WITH THE NEW CONGRESS AND
OVERSIGHT THAT WILL BE GREAT SO
GREAT IDEOLOGICAL NEW TECH
PLATFORM WITH FREE SPEECH AND
CONGRESS COMING IN READY TO CALL
HIM ON IT.
SO SOME OF THESE MIGHT BE ON THE
HORIZON.
>> Kayleigh: STEVE, WHAT DO
YOU MAKE OF THE 2024 TALK OVER
THANKSGIVING DAY DINNER?
>> Steve: LIKE I SAID,
OBVIOUSLY THEY WILL GO RUN, JOE,
RUN.
SO TO THE POINT HE SAID I WAS
NOT INVOLVED IN
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE SAID HE WAS
INVOLVED.
I HATE TO SAY THIS BUT MAYBE HE
WAS INVOLVED?
BUT HE FORGOT.
