ARABIA AND NO RESULTS OUT OF
THIS TRIP.
>> GOOD MORNING, MARIA.
I DON’T THINK ANYBODY SHOULD BE
SURPRISED HOW THE TRIP WENT.
IT WAS ILL ADVISED.
I DON’T KNOW WHO IS COMING UP
WITH THIS STUFF AT THE WHITE
HOUSE.
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING, TO GO
TO SAUDI ARABIA TO BEG THEM FOR
OIL AND YOU’RE DEALING WITH A
CARTEL.
THEY’RE NOT GOING TO DEAL WITH
YOU.
WHAT THE PRESIDENT SHOULD HAVE
DONE IS GONE TO TEXAS, GONE TO
LOUISIANA, MAYBE PENNSYLVANIA OR
NORTH DAKOTA, MAYBE EVEN GO TO
ALASKA AND DEAL WITH AMERICAN
PRODUCERS WHERE WE CAN INCREASE
SUPPLY.
THE ADMINISTRATION’S ON THE
RIGHT TRACK.
THEY REALIZE THERE’S A SUPPLY
SHORTAGE.
BUT THAT SUPPLY SHOULD BE COMING
DOMESTICALLY, NOT COMING FROM
OPEC OR ANY OF THESE OTHER
COUNTRIES.
OPEC PLUS THAT THIS
ADMINISTRATION SEEMS TO WANT TO
DEAL WITH, OTHER THAN DEALING
WITH AMERICAN PRODUCERS.
JACKIE: YOU BRING UP A GREAT
POINT.
THE CONVERSATION SHOULD BE HAD
HERE AT HOME, YET THE PRESIDENT
GOES THERE TO A COUNTRY THAT HE
OPENLY SAID HE WANTED TO MAKE A
PAPARIAH ON THE GLOBAL STAGE.
HE A TALKS TALKS TO THE CROWN PR
BRINGS UP THE HORRIFIC SLAYING
OF JAMAL CAY KHASHOGGI AND HE AS
IF HE’S RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS AND
HE SMIRKS AND I THINK THAT KIND
OF SAYS IT ALL.
>> YOU DON’T FIST BUMP PARIAHS.
I DON’T KNOW WHAT KIND OF IMAGE
THEY WERE TRYING TO PORTRAY FOR.
FOR WHAT PRESIDENT BIDEN SAID ON
THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL ABOUT WHAT HE
WAS GOING TO DO WITH SAUDI
ARABIA AND THEN WE’VE GOT A
VISION IN EVERYBODY’S MIND OF
HIM FIST BUMPING THE PRINCE
THERE AND IT’S JUST -- IT’S A
BAD IMAGE, IT’S SOMETHING THAT
SHOULDN’T HAVE HAPPENED.
IT’S LIKE A JUNIOR HIGH MISTAKE.
THIS ADMINISTRATION IS ON THE
WRONG TRACK AND WHAT ON EARTH
POSSESSED HIM TO THINK IT WAS
GOING TO BE A GOOD THING TO GO
TO SAUDI ARABIA TO NEGOTIATE
WITH THE SAUDIS WHEN ALL
AMERICANS -- I SAW A POLL THAT
SAID OVER 90% OF AMERICANS
BELIEVE THAT OR HAVE CONCERNS
WITH FOOD PRICES, HAVE CONCERNS
WITH ENERGY PRICES.
WE REALIZE WE HAVE THE ENERGY
HERE, WE JUST NEED TO DEVELOP
IT.
BUT ALL THIS ADMINISTRATION
WANTS TO DO AND THE LEFT IS THEY
WANT TO PUT ROADBLOCKS IN THE
DOMESTIC PRODUCTION AND THEN GO
NEGOTIATE WITH PEOPLE WE
SHOULDN’T BE NEGOTIATING WITH.
YOU DON’T NEGOTIATE WITH A
CARTEL.
JACKIE: CONGRESSMAN, A LOT OF
THIS IS ABOUT THE GREEN ENERGY
PUSH.
SENATOR MARCO RUBIO WAS ON HAND
ATHANNITY LAST NIGHT AND HE TALK
ABOUT IT.
>> YOU DON’T PUT OIL IN YOUR
CAR, YOU PUT GASOLINE.
THOSE HAVE TO BE REFINED.
THOSE REFINERIES ARE CLOSED IN
AMERICA BECAUSE WE HAVE AN
ADMINISTRATION THAT SAYS WE
DON’T WANT MORE FOSSIL FUELS.
WHO WILL INVEST MORE MONEY IN AN
INDUSTRY THAT THE PRESIDENT AND
A HIS PARTY IS TRYING TO PUT OUT
OF BUSINESS.
JACKIE: THAT’S THE PROBLEM,
RIGHT.
THERE’S BEEN A LACK OF
INVESTMENT IN THE INSTRUMENT
WHEN IT COMES TO HE REFINING,
FOR EXAMPLE, SIR, WE NEEDED MORE
REFINERIES IN THE COUNTRY FOR
QUITE SOME TIME AND THAT’S ONE
OF THE REASONS THAT WE’RE IN THE
CRUNCH THAT WE’RE IN.
BUT AS HE SAID, NO BIG OIL
COMPANY WANTS TO INVEST IN
BUILDING REFINERIES AT THIS
POINT.
IT WOULD BE BILLIONS AND
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS, FLUSHED
DOWN THE TOILET.
>> AND YOU’VE GOT WALL STREET
PUTTING PRESSURE ON THESE
COMPANIES NOT TO INVEST IN
REFINERIES.
IF YOU COULD GET PAST THE
REGULATORY HURDLES, THEN YOU’VE
GOT THE INVESTMENT SIDE OF IT.
I SAW AN AMAZING STATISTIC A
COUPLE WEEKS AGO WHERE U.S.
REFINERIES WERE OPERATING AT 94%
CAPACITY.
THAT’S TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ALL
OF THE MAINTENANCE OUTAGES AND
EVERYTHING.
THAT’S A PHENOMENAL NUMBER.
WE NEED MORE REFINING CAPACITY.
THIS ADMINISTRATION IS ATTACKING
ENERGY AT EVERY LABEL.
THEY’RE AIDED BY WALL STREET
WHICH IS SAYING FOSSIL FUELS ARE
BAD SO IT’S A BARRIER THAT’S
BEING PUT UP EVERWHERE YOU TURN.
I WAS VISITING WITH A COMPANY
THAT’S BUILDING A NATURAL --
YEAH, NATURAL GAS EXPORT
FACILITY.
THEY NEEDED TO PUT ABOUT 3,000
MORE WORKERS ON THEIR SITE.
THIS ADMINISTRATION WHILE
BLAMING THE INDUSTRY SAID THEY
COULDN’T PUT MORE WORKERS ON
THEIR SITE BECAUSE OF TAIL PIPE
EXHAUST FROM THEIR CARS WHEN
THEY COME INTO THE PARKING LOT.
YOU CAN’T EVEN MAKE SOME OF THIS
STUFF, MARIA AND THEY JUST KEEP
DOUBLING DOWN ON STUPIDITY.
JACKIE: YEAH, LET ME JUST ASK
YOU ONE MORE QUESTION, SIR.
HOUSE SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI
DENYINGAL LEE -- ALLEGATIONS OF
INSIDER TRADING AFTER FINANCIAL
DISCLOSURES SHOW HER HUSBAND
BOUGHT $5 MILLION IN CHIP STOCKS
AHEAD OF THE SENATE VOTE TO
SUBSIDIZE THE INDUSTRY.
PELOSI’S OFFICE SAYING THE
SPEAKER DOESN’T OWN ANY STOCKS,
THE TRANSACTIONS ARE MARKED FOR
SPOUSE, THE SPEAKER HAS NO PRIOR
KNOWLEDGE OR SUBSEQUENT
INVOLVEMENT IN ANY TRANSACTIONS.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT’S BEEN
GOING ON FOR YEARS AND IT
CONTINUES TO GO ON AS A MATTER
OF FACT.
>> WE SAW THIS WITH THE PELOSIS
WITH THE TECH STOCKS.
WE KNOW THAT AMERICANS, 70% OF
AMERICANS BELIEVE THAT MEMBERS
OF CONGRESS OR THEIR SPOUSES
SHOULD NOT BE PURCHASING STOCKS
BUT THIS IS A PATTERN THAT IS
CONTINUALLY REPEATED.
I NEVER MET PAUL PELOSI.
I KNOW NANCY PELOSI.
I KNOW JUST LAST NIGHT I WAS
SPEAKING AT THE RULES COMMITTEE,
TRYING TO AMEND OUT A
$90 MILLION EARMARK THAT SHE PUT
IN, AN A APPROPRIATIONS BILL FOR
A PARK IN A LUSH PART OF SAN
FRANCISCO.
SO SHE’S NOT BEYOND TRYING TO
PLAY THE SYSTEM TO BENEFIT HER
AND HER NEIGHBORHOOD THERE.
THIS IS A PLACE WHERE THE
CHEAPEST HOUSE IS $13 MILLION.
BUT APPARENTLY SPEAKER PELOSI
THINKS 90 MILLION SHOULD GO TO
FIX UP THE GOLF COURSE.
JACKIE: IT’S A GOOD POINT.
