D.C., WE WILL SEE YOU IN A BIT.
>> YES, SIR.
>> Mike: SO MUCH NEWS COMING
OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE IT TIME
TO DEBATE WHAT HAPPENED AND WHAT
MESSAGE PRESIDENT BIDEN INCENSE
TO THE WORLD WITH HIS ADDRESS AT
THE UNITED NATIONS.
LET’S BRING IN THE COFOUNDER OF
THE RURAL VOTER INSTITUTE ISAAC
WRIGHT AND VICE CHAIRMAN OF THE
AMERICAN FIRST POLICY INSTITUTE
FRAG FLIGHTS, GENTLEMEN,
WELCOME.
>> GREAT TO BE HERE.
>> Mike: HE SPENT A LOT OF
TIME AT THE U.N. GOING AFTER
RUSSIA AND VLADIMIR PUTIN BY
NAME.
>> PERMANENT MEMBER OF THE
SECURITY COUNCIL INVADED ITS
NEIGHBOR AND ATTEMPTED TO RAISE
THE SOVEREIGN STATE FROM THE
MAP, RUSSIA HAS SHAMELESSLY
VIOLATED THE COURT TENANT OF THE
CHARTER.
PRESIDENT PUTIN HAS MADE OVER
NUCLEAR THREATS.
>> Mike: FRED, WAS THAT
EFFECTIVE?
>> NO, I DON’T THINK IT WAS
EFFECTIVE.
I DON’T DISAGREE WITH WHAT
JOE BIDEN SAID, BUT THE
CHALLENGE IS TO END THE WAR AND
TO GET PUTIN TO DE-ESCALATE AND
PULL OUT, AND GET A SETTLEMENT,
THIS WILL PUT THEM IN THE OTHER
DIRECTION.
THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR
JOE BIDEN TO PUSH FOR A MASSIVE
INTERNATIONAL EFFORT TO BRING
ABOUT AN NEGOTIATED SETTLEMENT,
I THINK THAT JOE BIDEN THINKS
THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF
MILITARY AID WE ARE PROVIDING TO
UKRAINE WILL CONTINUE
INDEFINITELY OR MAYBE HE IS
GOING TO LOSE.
MAYBE HE WILL LOSE, BUT I AM
WORRIED THIS WILL BE AN EXTENDED
WAR WHICH WILL RESULT IN UKRAINE
BEING DESTROYED FOR ATTRITION
AND RUSSIAN MISSILES, AND I
THINK THAT IT WAS AT A MISSED
OPPORTUNITY.
>> Mike: ASKING LIKE A
DESPERATE GUY, WHAT YOU MAKE OF
THE PRESIDENT’S EFFORT AT THE
U.N. TODAY?
>> HE DID WHAT THE WORLD NEEDED
WHICH WAS TO RALLY SUPPORT AND
STEADFASTNESS AGAINST A MADMAN
IN THE KREMLIN WHO HAS HIS BACK
AGAINST THE WALL BECAUSE OF HIS
OWN MILITARY FAILURES AND IS NOW
THREATENING THE WORLD WITH
TACTICAL NUCLEAR ARMS OR WORSE,
THIS IS A TIME WHEN WE HAVE TO
STAND UP.
WE CAN’T SIMPLY STEP IN AND
NEGOTIATE AWAY PARTS OF A
SOVEREIGN NATION INVADED BY A
MADMAN IN ORDER TO REACH A FALSE
PEACE.
WE HAVE TO STAND UP AND STAND
WITH THE UKRAINE TO STOP THIS
INVASION.
TO STAND UP FOR DEMOCRACY AND
FREEDOM ACROSS THE WORLD.
BECAUSE IF VLADIMIR PUTIN CAN
THREATEN FREEDOM IN UKRAINE, HE
CAN THREATEN IT ANYWHERE AROUND
THE WORLD.
JOE BIDEN STOOD UP FOR AMERICAN
VALUES TODAY ON THE WORLD STAGE.
>> Mike: THE PRESIDENT ALSO
SPENT SOME TIME ON THE U.S.
RIVALRY WITH CHINA, LET’S PLAY
IT.
>> LET ME BE DIRECT ABOUT THE
COMPETITION BETWEEN THE
UNITED STATES AND CHINA, AS WE
MANAGE SHIFTING GEOPOLITICAL
TRENDS, THE UNITED STATES WILL
CONDUCT ITSELF AS A REASONABLE
LEADER, WE DO NOT SEEK CONFLICT.
WE DO NOT SEEK A COLD WAR.
WE DO NOT ASK ANY NATION TO
CHOOSE BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES
OR ANY OTHER PARTNER.
>> Mike: SHOULD HE HAVE BEEN
TOUGHER WITH BEIJING, FRED?
>> CHINA IS NOT A COMPETITOR, IT
IS AN ADVERSARY.
IT IS AN EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO
FREEDOM AROUND THE WORLD TO OUR
SECURITY AND ECONOMY AND
JOE BIDEN IS PLAYING DOWN THE
THREAT FROM CHINA NOT FACING UP
TO THE SEVERE HUMAN RIGHTS
VIOLATIONS IN CHINA.
I THINK THAT TO THE LEADERS IN
BEIJING MUST HAVE BEEN LAUGHING
THEMSELVES SILLY THAT THEY WERE
GETTING AWAY WITH SUCH A SOFT
TREATMENT BY THE PRESENT AND IN
THE UNITED STATES AFTER WHAT
THEY ARE DOING IN THE SOUTH
CHINA SEA, FLYING PLANES OVER
TAIWAN LANNING TO INVADE.
I WAS STUNNED AT THE SOFT
TREATMENT JOE BIDEN GAVE TO
CHINA.
>> Mike: WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF
RUSSIA AND CHINA SKIPPING THE
SPEECH?
>> I THINK THEY SKIPPED THIS
SPEECH BECAUSE YOU HAVE SEEN
RUSSIA STEP AWAY FROM THESE
SECURITY COUNCILS AND ITS ROLE
TO BRING PEACE AND INSTEAD
ENGAGE IN THESE AWFUL TACTICS IN
THE UKRAINE THAT INCLUDE HUMAN
RIGHTS VIOLATIONS AND
VLADIMIR PUTIN VLADIMIR PUTIN IS
A WAR CRIMINAL.
CHINA HAS EXPRESSED THEIR
DISAPPROVAL RECENTLY OF RUSSIA’S
INVASION OF UKRAINE AND WHERE
THE WORLD AS AN RIGHT NOW WE
NEED THEM AS AN ALLY TO HELP
RAIN IN RUSSIA, AND I THINK THAT
THE U.S. GOVERNMENT AND THIS
ADMINISTRATION HAS TO STRONGLY
LOOK AT A SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE
IN TAIWAN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN
DECADES AND I THINK THAT THE
CHINESE GOVERNMENT KNOWS WHERE
WE STAND ON THE ISSUES IN THE
SOUTH CHINA SEA AND I THINK THAT
JOE BIDEN DID AN EXCELLENT JOB
OF TRYING TO BRING CHINA ALONG
AS PART OF A COALITION TO REIGN
IN WHICH RUSSIA IS DOING RIGHT
NOW.
>> Mike: TO INFLATION HERE IS
CHASE CEO JAMIE DIMON ON
CAPITOL HILL.
>> BUT SINCE THEN WE HAVE SPENT
A TOTAL FISCAL SPENDING HAS BEEN
$6 TRILLION, 30% OF THE GDP
WHICH IS BIGGER THAN ANY TIME IN
HISTORY OTHER THAN WORLD WAR II.
THEY ARE TAKING THE RIGHT ACTION
TO REVERSE IT, BUT I DON’T THINK
YOU CAN SPEND $6 TRILLION AND
NOT EXPECT INFLATION.
>> Mike: RAISING RATES AGAIN
BY ANOTHER .75 PERCENTAGE
POINTS, NEARLY OUT OF TIME BUT I
WANT TO GET BOTH OF YOU GUYS A
CHANCE HERE.
FRED, YOU FIRST.
>> REDUCING THE MONEY SUPPLY
THIS WAY WILL HELP WITH THE REAL
FOCUS, IT IS REDUCING GOVERNMENT
SPENDING AND ENDING THE BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION’S WAR ON FOSSIL
FUEL AND GAS ELATION CARS, AS
LONG AS WE HAVE THIS PROBLEM WE
ARE NOT QUEEN TO BE ABLE TO STOP
INFLATION AND STOP THE LIKELY
BEGINNINGS OF A VERY SERIOUS
RECESSION.
>> Mike: ISAAC, FINAL WORD TO
YOU.
>> VLADIMIR PUTIN’S AND INVASION
OF THE UKRAINE UPSET GLOBAL
ENERGY SUPPLIES, THIS IS A
PROBLEM AT HIS DOORSTEP.
THIS IS PART OF THE REASON WHY
WE HAVE TO STAND STRONG AS A
COUNTRY WITH UKRAINE AND RESOLVE
IT.
THE FED MAY BE DOSING NOW IT
SEEMS LIKE PAINFUL MEDICINE NOW,
BUT I’VE BEEN ON THIS PROGRAM
BEFORE WHERE WE ALL DO CRIME THE
THREAT THAT INFLATION WAS TO
AMERICA, WE SHOULD STAND UP WITH
THE ECONOMIST AT THE FED WHO ARE
HELPING TO TRY TO USE EVERY TOOL
IN THE TOOLBOX TO FIGHT
INFLATION AND MAKE OUR ECONOMY
