3w ago01:16:05Tap to summarizePresident Trump rolled out a new nickname for the Democrats. He’s also talking up a possible name change for ICE to NICE, which he’s apparently a big fan of. Mark breaks down how little gas stations actually make from selling gas, pointing out that most of what we pay goes straight to taxes or other fees, not to the stations themselves. And if you thought sporting events were expensive, Mark shares how much tickets are going for at the World Cup at MetLife Stadium this July. Mark interviews John Carney from Breitbart Business News. John digs into the latest inflation numbers—up 3.8 percent over last year, the biggest jump in three years. It’s not just gas getting pricier; things like clothes and other everyday items are rising, too. California’s got a mess with oil prices, mostly because it’s tough to get oil shipped into the state. Mark and John wrap up by wondering if the U.S. might be able to work out a deal with China. Mark shares a story highlighting President Trump’s construction skills and how a skating rink renovation at Madison Square Garden may be completed much faster than expected. He also addresses recent reports that the Hantavirus is not considered a threat by officials, including those in Washington, D.C. He also covers news that Gavin Newsom has secured a major donor for his rumored 2028 presidential campaign. Mark interviews streaming host Bill O’Reilly. Bill emphasizes the importance of thoroughly briefing the president ahead of diplomatic trips, such as Trump’s current visit to China. O’Reilly offers advice on effective negotiation strategies with the Chinese and predicts that Iran will likely be the primary topic of discussion at the U.S.-China meeting. Both Bill and Mark express confidence in President Trump’s safety during his trip, believing the likelihood of any incidents is low.
