00:00:01.600 --> 00:00:09.320
Take my beney like, can you just.
2
00:00:09.119 --> 00:00:15.400
Let me in my way? Welcome world to bladies, listeners.
3
00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:18.199
I'm back in action. I took a little bit of
4
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:21.760
time off, and I very much apologize to everybody who
5
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:27.760
listens to the show supports the show. Sorry. Look, I
6
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:30.120
want to make it very clear everybody. I love the
7
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:32.000
fact that you all listen to me and support me,
8
00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:33.799
but I also need you to know this isn't my
9
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:38.439
full time job. My other business took my attention. It
10
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:42.240
was a very busy period, and again I apologize for
11
00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:43.799
not getting this episode out. I know it's been a
12
00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:46.640
few weeks, but I will have to say in my defense,
13
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:48.240
those last few weeks I was off. There really wasn't
14
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:51.439
much going on. And here I am ready to go.
15
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:55.240
I am recording this Saturday, June seventh. It is four
16
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:57.920
forty five pm here on the West coast of the
17
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.640
United States of America, and I have to tell you
18
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:05.280
that I'm glad I waited because this past week has
19
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:08.280
man it made up for it, and there's a lot
20
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:10.040
to talk about, and I will not be able to
21
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:11.400
get to all of it, but I'm going to try
22
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:16.239
to hit some bullet points here, all right. Also, I
23
00:01:16.280 --> 00:01:19.920
want everybody to know that I have been retooling and
24
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:21.879
working with my brother on the other show that I
25
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:25.400
co host with him, Random Thoughts with Manuel and George.
26
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:28.040
Now we have taken that show and we have focused
27
00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:33.040
on video episodes primarily. We are on YouTube, We are
28
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:36.719
on Rumble, and we are now on pod Nation. So
29
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:40.519
pod Nation has their own Roku app and we're part
30
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:43.560
of that community. And so if you have a Roku player,
31
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:47.200
you could download the pod Nation TV app and you'll
32
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:49.000
see a picture of a big alien on there. When
33
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.040
you search for it, you'll see a pop up download
34
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:53.519
that you'll be able to see those Random Thoughts with
35
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.079
Manual and George episodes on the pod Nation TV app
36
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.280
on Roku, and you'll also be able to see other
37
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:03.680
podcasters that are a part of that community and that network.
38
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:07.120
So go ahead and give pod Nation some support. If
39
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:09.400
you have a big TV with Roku, you can go
40
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:12.319
ahead and use the pod Nation app to watch those episodes.
41
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:14.360
And as far as World the Blaze is concerned, I
42
00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:16.039
am not going anywhere, and I want to go ahead
43
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:18.840
and give people an update. Listen, I promise you video
44
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:22.240
it's coming. I'm not gonna do my solo episodes or
45
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:25.159
my solo hosted episodes on video, because I just don't
46
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:28.599
know if it works. I feel more comfortable doing the
47
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:33.159
solo episodes and audio. Now that being said, I promise
48
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:35.639
that I'll have more guests, and I do. They are booked,
49
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:39.360
they're coming up here. Actually this month I will start
50
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:43.159
recording those episodes. Those episodes, the guest episodes, I plan
51
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:47.360
on having those moving forward. Those will be released in video.
52
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.840
I feel that the interaction between two people definitely has
53
00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:54.439
to be seen. It allows for better context as you're
54
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:58.159
able to see people's facial expressions and the reactions, and
55
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:03.280
those will absolutely be our Rumble YouTube and they will
56
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:05.319
be on pod Nation. I'll go a heading uploads on
57
00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:09.960
the pod Nation TV app as well. And I have
58
00:03:10.039 --> 00:03:12.240
to say that I have to give everyone who's supported
59
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:14.800
the show. There's countries that have stepped up and have
60
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:19.360
been listening to me and their percentages of downloads have
61
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:21.080
gone up, So thank you very much to the UK
62
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:27.840
as always, thank you Iceland for supporting and Australia has
63
00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:30.879
you know, they've been increasing their numbers. So Australia, thank
64
00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:33.120
you very much for listening to this show. And of
65
00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:35.520
course we have New Zealand who's always been a strong supporter,
66
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:38.919
and America is you know, the bulk of where everything
67
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:41.240
comes from in the USA. But I really have to
68
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:43.479
tip my hat to those nations out there who continue
69
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.039
to support, not just support, but seem to be growing
70
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:48.680
in size as far as the audience. So thank you
71
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:51.520
very much to all of you out there. Special shout
72
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:55.120
out to the Duchess of New Jersey. Duchess, thank you
73
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:58.000
very much for all your comments, your interactions, not just
74
00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.439
on the show here, not just worldplay, but I have
75
00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:05.479
seen your comments interactions on random Thoughts with Manuel George too,
76
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:08.840
So thank you very much, Duchess, and thanks to everybody
77
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.039
who has been leaving comments on Spotify. Now I'm going
78
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:13.800
to say this right now, I don't ask for much.
79
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:15.960
If you like the show and you support the show,
80
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:19.800
support me by spreading the word. Let everybody else know
81
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:23.959
about World of Blaze with George Fonts and by all means,
82
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:27.480
leave a five star review and whatever damn podcast app
83
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:30.360
you like to use. And outside of that, if you
84
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:32.720
have time, sure leave a commoner review and I do
85
00:04:32.839 --> 00:04:36.040
respond to those. Now with that out of the way,
86
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.160
and I'm sure you're all thinking George's been long enough.
87
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:41.480
Get to the damn episode. I'm getting there, and I'm
88
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:43.680
just going to pull the band aid off. Let's talk
89
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:46.720
about Trump versus Elon. What in the hell is going
90
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:51.240
on here? Listen this on the surface. A lot of
91
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:53.720
people are reading this on the surface. And I've always
92
00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:55.759
said a lot of people live on the surface of information.
93
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:59.920
Now these guys are airing their grievances out in public.
94
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:05.600
Elon's mad at Trump. Trump's mad at Elon. Why is
95
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:07.959
Elon mad at Trump? Well, it sounds like Elon was
96
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:12.519
really upset because of all the work he put into DOGE,
97
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:15.120
everything he did to uncover fraud and waste, all the
98
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:19.879
recommendations he made, and when it comes to this big,
99
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:23.920
beautiful bill, Elon is vehemently against it because there's not
100
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:26.040
enough cuts. A lot of the work that Elon did
101
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:29.600
isn't even included. A lot of the DOGE cuts aren't
102
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.639
even a part of it. And on the surface, you know,
103
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:35.240
this bill looks good. You know he look no tax
104
00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:40.120
on tips, more tax cuts, et cetera. But even those
105
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:44.160
provisions they expire in twenty twenty eight. And we all
106
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:48.399
know that every sitting president who gives an executive order
107
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.199
or you know, was able to pass things that they
108
00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:54.240
want to. Bill usually gets repealed when the new president
109
00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:56.439
comes in, especially if it's an opposing party. Now, we
110
00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:00.439
can hope that after the Trump administration, after this, after
111
00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:03.800
Trump's last presidential term here is over, we can only
112
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:06.959
hope that there might be another conservative or honestly, what
113
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:08.319
I would like to see is a centrist. I want
114
00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:10.560
someone down the middle. You know, I don't want another
115
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:13.319
far left far right type of situation. I want someone
116
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:15.120
down the middle. But I would hope that some of
117
00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:18.800
the executive orders and policies that were put into place continue,
118
00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:22.160
absolutely continue, because there are some good things that Trump
119
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:24.639
has done. There are some questionable things. There are definitely
120
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:26.480
a lot of things that Trump did that upset a
121
00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:29.240
lot of people. Of course we knew that would happen.
122
00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:36.120
But let's get back to this disagreement between Elon and Trump,
123
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:40.600
which really comes down to this big, beautiful bill. Now, again,
124
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:44.680
this looks nice and tasty, It looks delicious. You want
125
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:46.800
to sink your teeth into it. The damn thing is
126
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:49.879
wrapped in crispy bacon. But the problem is is that
127
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:54.279
damn bacon is wrapped around a big chunk of fat,
128
00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:57.560
a big stick of lard. And that's the issue that
129
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:01.000
Elon has. There's a lot in there that actually may
130
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:04.040
add to the debt. The other thing that is ridiculous
131
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:08.600
is the debt ceiling is all proposed to be raised
132
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:11.720
even more so instead of really addressing the budget and
133
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:14.839
taking care of the spending, there's gonna be more spending,
134
00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:18.480
and not just spending. We're also gonna raise the debt
135
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:21.519
ceiling to about five trillion, because you know, the best
136
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:26.120
way to budget you're spending right, to rain you're spending
137
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:28.120
in is to make it look like you're not even
138
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:34.680
hitting your budget limit anyway, right, Like, hey, look, my
139
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:37.240
budget's five thousand, I'm spending ten thousand. While I know
140
00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:39.120
how to fix that. I'm gonna make the new budget
141
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:42.439
limit twenty thousand, so now I can spend my ten thousand.
142
00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:44.800
You know what happens they spend the twenty. In fact,
143
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:46.519
they'll go ahead and spend the fifty and they'll be like, well,
144
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:48.839
you know what, I know this looks bad, but next year,
145
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:51.199
next year, our spending limit is now one hundred thousand.
146
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:54.120
And that's the game the government has been playing for many,
147
00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:59.160
many years. So Elon is upset at Trump. Elon feels used,
148
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:05.000
Elon feels unappreciated, And this whole thing is being played
149
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:08.879
up in real time on social media, primarily X and
150
00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:13.279
True social Now, let's get a little more insight into
151
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:13.560
the bill.
152
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:13.759
I have.
153
00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:19.560
I have a Congressman Chip Roy here of Texas. Here's
154
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.399
a little bit about what he thinks of this bill.
155
00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:25.839
Now, the big beautiful bill, let's go through it. The
156
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:27.759
bill is what I would call the good, the bad,
157
00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:32.519
and the ugly, because that's the truth. And I'm not
158
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:35.519
going to get into personalities and squabbles and back and forth.
159
00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:38.600
The President is right that we need to move a
160
00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:41.480
bill through here with tax cuts and spending restraint so
161
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:43.639
that he can get the agenda done that he campaigned on.
162
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:45.519
He's one hundred percent right, and we should do that.
163
00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:50.960
Elon is right that this bill doesn't cut enough. That's
164
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:54.440
the truth. Two things can be true at the same time.
165
00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:58.879
And the barriers actually achieving the greatness of moving the
166
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.639
big beautiful bill through that would achieve the President's agenda
167
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:05.240
and achieving what Elon is rightly saying, which is that
168
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:07.759
we should cut more. The barrier is right here in
169
00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:11.200
this chamber. It's right over there in the Senate. People
170
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:14.879
unwilling to face their constituents and tell them the truth. Well,
171
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:16.360
I'm going to try to sit here on the floor
172
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:19.679
and tell the truth. I had to hold my nose
173
00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:21.600
to vote for this bill two weeks ago, off the
174
00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:24.799
House floor to the Senate. Why it does not cut
175
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.720
enough and it's not even close to cutting enough. My
176
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:32.320
colleagues say, oh, but Chip, it's the biggest spending decrease
177
00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:35.600
in history. Let's be very clear. It is a reduction
178
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:41.039
in future increases of about one point six trillion dollars. Yes,
179
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:44.960
that is the biggest amount ever. But guess what. We
180
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:48.480
have sizeably more debt and sizeably more spending than ever,
181
00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:51.960
So of course it should be, but it should be more.
182
00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:56.600
One point six trillion dollars in cuts or future reductions
183
00:09:57.159 --> 00:09:59.519
is really about one hundred and sixty billion dollars a
184
00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:04.720
year ten years. That's the truth. The truth is our
185
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:08.320
whole budget has grown from about three point six trillion
186
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:12.120
a decade ago to seven point two trillion. Now it's doubled,
187
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:15.639
and everybody wants to applaud themselves for one hundred and
188
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:18.759
sixty billion dollars of reductions and increases.
189
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:24.519
Well, that doesn't sound like a very good budget. Doesn't
190
00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:27.799
sound like a very good proposal or proposals that are
191
00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:32.480
included in this bill. Seems like increased spending is yet
192
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:36.000
again the aim of the government and the debt ceiling
193
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:39.039
is to be kicked down the road and raised once again.
194
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:41.960
And you know, Triperway is not the only one. Here's
195
00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:45.759
Ran Paul. Here's a little clip of what he thinks.
196
00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:46.000
Here.
197
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:48.639
The House bill is going to add about four trillion
198
00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:52.039
to the debt ceiling. The Senate bill adds five trillion.
199
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:57.879
There's nothing fiscally conservative about expanding the debt ceiling more
200
00:10:57.919 --> 00:10:58.759
than we've ever done.
201
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:02.519
It, right, there is nothing fiscally conservative about expanding or
202
00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:05.679
raising the debts something whatsoever. I mean, if we're adding
203
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:08.679
about four to five trillion and we're gonna move the
204
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:11.440
goalpost of the debts thing too about five in fact,
205
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:15.600
may even be seven, how is that fiscally responsible for
206
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:18.559
the United States of America. Now, Trump's gonna claim, Look,
207
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:21.799
we're bringing in a lot of money, regardless, these tariffs
208
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:25.279
are are bringing in billions, billions, maybe even trillions of dollars.
209
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:28.240
But is it enough to keep up with the spending,
210
00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:31.559
is it? And now you got a little bit of
211
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:35.399
insight as to why Elon Musk is pissed off. So
212
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.320
they've been arguing, and I'm gonna go through a couple
213
00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:42.399
this is ridiculous, but we're gonna go through a few
214
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:45.080
tweets that we're going back and forth between Donald Trump
215
00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:47.320
and Elon Musk. I'm gonna do my best to kind
216
00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:50.799
of keep these in chronological order. They may not be
217
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:54.279
in exact order, but they're pretty much in order. So
218
00:11:55.679 --> 00:11:58.480
Elon said a lot, and Donald Trump responded on truth
219
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:00.519
Social with a couple of I don't know what you
220
00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:03.679
call him truths whatever, And here's what he had to say.
221
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:06.440
Here's here's the first one. Donald says, the easiest way
222
00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:09.320
to save money in our budget, billions and billions of dollars,
223
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:14.120
is to terminate Elon's governmental subsidies and contracts. I was
224
00:12:14.159 --> 00:12:16.840
always surprised that Biden didn't do it. All right, Well,
225
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:20.039
there's there's shot fired number one. And then Trump goes
226
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:25.639
on in another truth or post saying Elon was wearing thin.
227
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:28.679
I asked him to leave. I took away his ev
228
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:32.039
mandate that forced everyone to buy electric cars and nobody
229
00:12:32.039 --> 00:12:35.000
else wanted that he knew for months I was going
230
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:39.080
to do, and he just went crazy. Well that that
231
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:44.279
may be Donald President Trump, excuse me, that may be,
232
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:47.600
but Elon has said many times that he doesn't even
233
00:12:47.639 --> 00:12:49.759
care about the EV mandate. He doesn't even care about
234
00:12:49.799 --> 00:12:54.159
the EV subsidies or the the kickbacks or the cuts whatever.
235
00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:57.919
He didn't care about that. See, Elon's a guy that
236
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:02.240
I take for wanting to innovate. Push the envelope really
237
00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:05.720
changed society through technology. Now, I'm not naive to the
238
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:08.399
fact that he absolutely wants his pat on the back
239
00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:10.639
and he wants to be recognized. But Elon's in a
