- [03:56]
B
Good morning America.
- [03:58]
A
Welcome to American Sunrise. Whether it's culture, we have breaking news to share with you.
- [04:04]
B
Politics. President Trump is joining us live now from Florida. We've got you covered. This is what it looks like to be a patriot. We have to protect the American family.
- [04:16]
A
The American dream is still alive.
- [04:19]
B
I'm David Brody. I'm terrence.
- [04:21]
A
And I'm Dr. Gina. Good morning, everybody. I'm Dr. Gina. We are live with you from the Palm Beaches. Let's bring in David Brody. He's in Washington, D.C. and Terrence Bates in our Denver newsroom. Good morning, gentlemen.
- [04:38]
B
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Good morning to both of you. So, look, let's just get right to our top story. Dr. Gina, you alluded to it at the very top. There is a feud happening between President Trump and Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. Morning. The president has now withdrawn his support for Greene. He's even calling her a traitor. Here is her response. I stood with President Trump when virtually.
- [05:03]
A
No one else did, campaigned all over the country, spent millions of my own.
- [05:07]
B
Dollars helping him get elected. And I think that's incredibly important. And I do support him and his administration, and I support them in delivering.
- [05:17]
A
The campaign promises we made to the American people.
- [05:21]
B
His remarks, of course, have been hurtful.
- [05:24]
A
However, I have something in my heart.
- [05:26]
B
That I think is incredibly important for our country, and that is to end the toxic fighting in politics. And this has been going on for years. And it has divided our country, split.
- [05:39]
A
Up friends and families, neighbors.
- [05:42]
B
And it's not solving our problems. For more, let's bring in Rav chief White House correspondent Brian Glenn to discuss. Brian, good morning to you. Good morning Terrence. So look, let's start here. What's the mood at the White House this morning after what was by most intense purposes a pretty contentious weekend? Yeah, it was President Trump pushing out that true social there over the weekend, really kind of officially denouncing his support for Marjorie Taylor Greene. Now, they have been in different camps as far as early on the Epstein files, she was signed on to the discharge petition with Thomas Massie and a few other Democrats. And obviously that was one thing that the Republican Party, President Trump, was absolutely against. But now President Trump, as of last night, has kind of reversed his stance on that and now is encouraging Republicans to vote on that release in the files that happens tomorrow night. It's a Tuesday night vote, Terrence, but it's been kind of a interesting weekend, as you can imagine. I'm kind of like the kid in the middle between two divorced parents going through their conflict. But as you just heard, Marjorie has been very strong and very supportive of President Trump's America first agenda. And Terrence, you know, for someone who's been on the campaign trail with President Trump for multiple campaigns, I've seen the support of the American people that they have for him. I've seen the support that Marjorie has personally invested in supporting the president on both campaigns. That's one of the reasons why Terrence, she even got into politics was to push the America first agenda and support President Trump. But obviously the big breakup that's sending shockwaves across all of the world, if you will. We'll see how this plays out. But I am thankful that President Trump now sees the support of the American people wanting to get these Epstein files released. I think he's recognizing that now, and we'll see if that happens tomorrow night. Brian, you mentioned, excuse me, that discharge petition vote which is set to happen tomorrow, is the White House actively engaged in, if you will, lobbying lawmakers either way, particularly after the president's post in which he said release all of the documents that are legally available. Are they talking to lawmakers? Are they lobbying to try to help with that vote? Yeah, I can't confirm whether or not they're individually reaching out to Republicans other than that statement from President Trump that he released on Truth Social. So to answer your question, I don't know if he's making individual phone calls to Republicans about that, but we'll see what that vote looks like tomorrow night. I imagine the world will be watching. And I will say this. You know, with the political Marjorie went on and talked about the political industrial complex and all of the all of the visceral that happens in politics, and we've all seen it throughout the years, but it's, it's escalating to kind of a now a more of a violent tone. Just here last night, we were what's called pizza doxing. And what that is is someone orders a pizza to your residence, and it's a way to show intimidation, that they, in fact, know where you live, they know that you're. And this happened here, it happened at another family's residence. And there was also a bomb threat, a pipe bomb threat at their business, which is not here in Rome. It's in another city outside of Atlanta. That was confirmed by police yesterday at the same time that the pizza doxing was happening here. So some of the rhetoric that you see online, not particularly from President Trump, but from what I call paid social media activists that have really fueled the flames between the two individuals. So that's elevating to a now a point of violence or potential violence. And I think there's no place for that in politics. We can just disagree on policy. Terrence and Dr. Gina, I like, we can all disagree on policies. That's what we do. We discuss our differences. But when people take it to another level, there's no excuse for that. No, absolutely. There's a way to do that in a way that is humane and in a way that is civil. Brian Glenn reporting for us this morning. We'll be, of course, getting more from you from the White House later on this week. Brian, always good to see you, my friend. Thank you so much. Thank you, guys. Good morning. Thank you. Absolutely. All right, folks, let's send things over to Dr. Gina for our Bible verse. Dr. G. Good morning.
- [10:07]
A
Good morning. Today's Bible verse is from Isaiah 30, verse 21. Your ears shall hear a word behind you saying, this is the way, walk in it. Whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left, God will always guide us. So isn't that a good message to start our Monday? Now over to the Epstein files, where the House is slated to vote this week. As Terrence and Brian just discussed on whether to release all of them, President Trump is calling on the House Republicans to release these files Trump posted on Truth Social. As I said, on Friday night aboard Air Force One, House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files. Nothing to hide. Time to move on from this Democrat hoax, etc. Including our recent victory in the Democrat shutdown. For more, let's bring in GOP strategist retired Navy Captain Armin Kurdian. Armin, would you vote for this and will it go anywhere? And by the way, if they're released, are they just going to be all redactions? Because that's pretty much, I feel like what we get when things are released these days.
- [11:09]
B
Good morning, Dr. Gina. You know, this is the one thing that I was, I've been concerned about regarding the Epstein files is I'm concerned there could be a lot of names in there, just, you know, ancillary names like somebody's dry cleaner, somebody's banker or whatever who simply had nothing to do with this and the name could be dragged through the mud or they're going to get a lot of attention or press. That's my biggest concern. Or honestly I think if there was anything that was juicy that was left in these files, I could be wrong on this, but I think it would have already been leaked by now. You know, the media, the left wing media is talking about Trump, Trump, Trump, the Epstein files. Yet there's a litany of high profile Democrat names from Bill Clinton on down who are also quote unquote, associated with, with Jeffrey Epstein. So, you know, if they want to go ahead and release them, you know, go ahead. I'm just concerned that some people may just get damaged ancillary in this release and I really don't know if there's going to be anything in there that the American people are gonna see. If they don't see anything juicy, they're gonna think that something's been left out.
- [12:03]
A
Armin, Armin, you're not saying though that Americans shouldn't have full transparency on all things just in case someone innocent is named? Cuz I mean, doesn't the transparency, can't we just take that one more step and investigate that and then we'll know the truth on that. Wouldn't you rather see that than someone who did something criminal, especially to a young girl go unmentioned or unreleased?
- [12:29]
B
Well, let's put it this way, you know, I'll meet you on that. In terms of anybody who's done anything terrible or anything has, who's committed awful crimes, I mean we've got folks who are openly doing some of that here in our Sacramento legislature and absolutely these kinds of crimes need to be brought to justice. Look what we're doing in terms of deporting and expelling a lot of these, you know, child sex traffickers here who are here illegally. I'm, I'm all absolutely 100% for that, for that kind of transparency. Sometimes transparency can go a little bit too far. Because the media loves to make, you know, a lot more of certain things that are, that are out there, that are really there. I just don't want anybody innocent or anybody who hasn't, hasn't done anything wrong also maybe going to the spotlight if they, if they haven't done anything wrong. And this is, you know, not conducive to their lives. Armin, we've got about a minute left. It's kind of tight this morning, but the feud between President Trump and Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene obviously making heads headlines, especially over the weekend. How do you see it exactly? You know, my son quoted a Bible verse to me last night, said nobody in this world is perfect except for God. Regarded to the, to the feud, the one thing that I always had a big criticism of the President on is he, he keeps a lot of these feuds in public and he keeps feeding the fire to his detriment and takes away from his agenda and the success that he actually has. You know, Marjorie Taylor Greene is concerned about affordability, rightfully she should be. There's something the President has control over and there's some things he simply doesn't have control over. The amount of damage that was caused under the Biden administration, which is massive and extensive, you know, insurance rates, you know, food, you know, all these other things that have happened within our economy that Trump is trying to write the ship on. So certainly maybe there's some room for improvement. He's doing, I think, a pretty good job of actually trying to make this happen. So, you know, this feud, I think a lot of folks are trying to play it up because, you know, they don't like Donald Trump and they, they're just focusing on the next big thing to go after him. And look what they were saying, that the Republicans were about ready to come apart on the, on the shutdown, when in fact they actually weren't. So, you know, this will event go away like the Trump Musk view did or like Trump fused with everybody else, with Liz Cheney and everyone else. It eventually goes out of the mainstream media cycle and Trump can get back to the business of actually leading the country and making life better for Americans.
- [14:43]
A
This is a massive distraction. Buried in the news this weekend was the fact that we are on pace to have 85,000 fewer drug related deaths in America right now. This is what Republicans and President Trump, I wish were focused on because this is the kind of thing that wins midterms. Armin Kurdian, thank you so much for your time.
- [15:03]
B
Thanks, Dr. Gina and David, have a great day.
- [15:05]
A
You too.
- [15:05]
B
You too.

Coming up, we check out the hottest headlines from the RAP newsroom with tbates. And later, President Trump hints he's made a decision on potential action against Venezuela. What options are on the table and what will this mean for the US in terms of the world stage? We're going to analyze all that soon here at American Sunrise.
- [15:35]
B
This news break is brought to you by amac, association of Mature American Citizens. That is Kansas City. They're not happy this morning out there with those Broncos winning at the last second yesterday. Welcome back, everybody, to American Sunrise. I'm David Brody. Coming up, what's going on in Venezuela? You know who might not be happy? Nicholas Maduro. He is about to figure out what the Trump administration plans are for his country because President Trump says he's kind of probably decided as to what's going to happen in Venezuela. Only President Trump can say it quite that way. We'll have more in a moment. First, though, T. Bates standing by with the latest headlines from the real America's Voice newsroom sponsored by amac. The association of Mature American Citizens is the conservative voice for Americans 50 and older. AMAC is fighting for the values that you hold dear. Join today. Together we can right the course of a America. The Trump administration's illegal immigration crackdown shifts to Charlotte, North Carolina with dozens of arrests over the weekend. The commander of the operation, Greg Bovino is out with this video which documents the work that's being done. We'll show it to you momentarily. There it is. Hundreds of U.S. customs and Border Protection agents are in the so called Queen City for an operation that's meant to combat crime and defense, deport people who are in this country illegally. Operation Charlotte's Web netted more than 80 arrests just this weekend. In his ex post, Bavino writing, wherever the wind takes us, high, low, near far east, west, north, south, we take to the breeze. We go as we please. This time the breeze hit Charlotte like a storm. He writes. From border towns to the Queen City, our agents go where the mission calls. Meantime, the Trump administration is continuing its deadly attacks on suspected drug boats. The latest drone attack came over the weekend in the eastern Pacific. At least three people were killed. A statement from the US Southern Command which initiated the attack says quote, intelligence confirmed that the vessel was involved in illicit narcotics smuggling, transiting along a known narco trafficking route and carrying narcotics. The announcement goes on to say the boat was in international waters when it was hit. This latest operation is the 21st known attack on a suspected drug boat in an effort to disrupt the flow of narcotics into the United states. More than 80 people have been killed. Air traffic is getting back to normal leading up to next week's Thanksgiving travel rush. On Sunday, the Federal Aviation Administration lifted all restrictions on commercial flights that were imposed at 40 major airports nationwide due to the government shutdown. As many as 2,900 flights were canceled in one day as a result of the FAA's order. The idea was to ensure air safety due to the shortages of air traffic controllers during the 43 day long shutdown. In the meantime, the FAA says it is looking into reports of non compliance by airlines during that emergency order. Quote, the agency is reviewing and assessing enforcement options. We'll of course, continue to update you on that developing story. Now let's get to your forecast. Meteorologist Tracy Anthony standing by with a look at what's happening from coast to coast. And the west coast is really reeling from all that rain that it got over the weekend.
- [19:14]
A
Yeah, they have had a ton of rain, a ton of moisture, a ton of snow in the higher elevations. And they're still dealing with some rain showers and storms so far this morning. But this was a look from Kirkwood. This was some of the high country snow. You can tell it's that heavy, wet snow as those trees are starting to stack up with the weight of that snow.
- [19:35]
B
But also areas like San Diego picking.
- [19:38]
A
Up a significant amount of rain. This is typically rain. They usually have 4 inches of rain between November and January. And over the weekend, we had 3 to 5 inches of rain across the region. So there was a lot of slides and landslides across parts of California and we had a handful of reports. So just kind of want to show you how many flooding reports we've had. You can see here those green dots up and down the coastal areas. I'm going to take the warnings off here for a minute just so we can see them. But there you go, all the way through the Bay Area. And Terrence, they're going to be dealing with all this. This rained still today, so it's just going to be insult to injury. So we're going to be watching this part of the country very, very closely.
- [20:24]

Absolutely. All right, Tracy, we appreciate it. By the way, folks, you see that QR screen at the bottom of your screen? Go ahead, scan that right now. Join our friends over at Weather Nation.

So let us know where you're hanging out this morning and you might actually get one of our hometown forecasts. Up next, Israel stands firm on the principle of not allowing a Palestinian state. But what does that mean for further peace talks? We'll have expert analysis. Right now, though, a quick look at this day in history. And I want to say this to the television audience. I made my mistakes, but in all of my years of public life, I have never profited, never profited from public service. I've earned every cent. And in all of my years of public life, I have never obstructed justice. And I think too that I can say that in my years of public life that I welcome this kind of examination because people have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I'm not a crook. I've earned everything I've got. You heard it yourself. It was on this date in 1973 that President Richard Nixon implemented, infamously said, I am not a crook. You just heard it. Nixon continued to deny the Watergate scandal before ultimately resigning in disgrace. It tainted Nixon's legacy, even tainted President Gerald Ford's legacy.

I'm Rodney Williams. And I'm Travis Holloway. Welcome to the Wealth Break. Let's be honest, building wealth doesn't look the same for everyone. It's not just about saving. It's about investing.

We're breaking down the realities, like what it means to take risk, how to navigate failure, and why resilience matters. Because wealth isn't about money.

Cincinnati, Ohio Blue skies ahead, everybody, on a Monday, November 17, 2025. Welcome back folks to the show. That would be American Sunrise. By the way, did you know that's the name of the show? You know, it appears President Trump may have made up his mind on action against Venezuela. The president told reporters Friday evening that he has, quote, sort of decided. He has reviewed options ranging from airstrikes on narco trafficking routes to a potential push to oust Nicolas Maduro. Pentagon has moved more than a dozen warships and 15,000 troops to carry out what they call Operation Southern Spear. All right, for more, let's bring in retired Navy SEAL officer Mike Sorelli, a good friend of the show. Mike, what do you think here? Any predictions as to what President Trump likely will do here? Good morning to you. Good morning, David. You know, similar to the Iranian strikes, you know, Trump didn't telegraph his moves there. I don't think he's going to telegraph it here. What he's doing is he's keeping Maduro in Venezuela off balance. But here's what I see and what I think Trump understands is that we cannot ignore a narco state backed by Beijing and Moscow. We've been arguably so focused on foreign wars in different hemispheres that we've ignored our own backyard. You know, not only border security, but narco terrorism and foreign influence are all connected. And Trump understands that if the US Is our house, the western hemisphere is our backyard. So, you know, we can ill afford to allow that to seep into our house. And arguably that's already happened. He's cleaning it up. At the end of the day, what I would love to see is a measured legal response tied to very clear objectives. And I would. For a guy who's ended so many wars, I don't think he's going to easily enter into one. I would like to see him use the full arsenal of our economic, diplomatic, information and intelligence assets before going to overt military operations.

Mike. The Trump administration has launched an immigration crackdown in Charlotte. Assistant DHS Secretary Trisha McLaughlin said Americans should be able to live without fear of violent, criminal, illegal aliens hurting their families. Federal agents have arrested at least 81 people in Charlotte so far. Charlotte's mayor slammed the move. Mike, what do you think happens next?
- [30:28]
B
What I still fail to understand is that the American public doesn't see that we have immigration laws. Enforcing those immigration laws is not extreme. That's basic governance. What's extreme is what happened under the Biden administration letting millions of people in. So I support this move. In fact, I think the biggest shortfall right now is the Manning for ice. They are spending millions right now to recruit young men and women into their forces in order to conduct more of these operations. But Dr. Gina, if I asked all of you, do you feel more safe than 10 years ago? I guarantee the answer is going to be no. I've got a 13 month old daughter and I still have this sense of fear. I came from a pretty strong background. I don't fear many men, especially with the peers that have stand by my side. But I don't feel safe anymore. And we've got to police up the people that are illegally here and get them out of our nation in order to address and take care of our U.S. citizens. And that is strong leadership. And whatever the Charlotte mayor says she is just or he is just wrong in this circumstance. Mike, I want to bring your attention to this Bloomberg Headline which reads, israel vows no Palestinian State Is UN Set to vote on a Gaza Plan. Benjamin Netanyahu said that there will be no Palestinian state and that Hamas will, will disarm. There's so many questions I have about this, but let me start here. Are there too many cooks in the kitchen here? You've got the U.N. you've got President Trump's plan, which is already in place and seems to at least be the guiding post as it relates to this. Are there too many people trying to intercede in terms of trying to bring peace to the region, not just between Israel and Hamas, but really to the entire Middle East? Too many cooks in the kitchen, too many people with opinion, with no interaction in that arena whatsoever? Here's what I'll say. This is the typical UN Globalist mafia inserting themselves and putting the cart before the horse. We haven't even disarmed Hamas yet. That's phase one. Get an international stabilization force in there and we could talk about Palestinian statehood down the road. I can tell you where I stand. The answer is absolutely not. We're not going to reward somebody for what they did on October 7th. That sets a bad precedence. But I will say this. You know, Clinton went through this with Prime Minister Barak and PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat. The Palestinians don't want statehood. They want the destruction of Israel. So don't support a group, a terrorist group, that wants statehood and wants credibility and validity when they're just going to continue to attack Israel. I think the answer is clear here in anyone with a view other than that. I just can't quite understand what ground, moral ground, they're coming from. Yeah, I hear you on that, Mike. How concerned are you? How queasy are you about the United States dabbling over there in terms of this international stabilization force and all of that? I mean, should America pretty much say, hey, good luck to all of you, we're out, or how do you see it? The US Always needs to lead the influence of what's going on. But it is time. It's well overdue that the Arab League, the Gulf Cooperation Council states get involved and provide those forces. This is their backyard. It only benefits them to bring peace and stability to the Middle east, to drive their economic plans, and they need to step up. They usually talk a big game, but they're slow in moving. And if they move at all, they're ineffective. So we really do. I'll finish with this. As Lawrence of Arabia said, Arab problems are best dealt with Arab hands. The Arab states need to step up here and take care of their own backyard, much like we're doing in the Western hemisphere. Great point. Mike Sorelli, great to have you on the show as always. Thanks. Thanks, Mike. Thanks, y'. All. All right, coming up, have you ever been stressed out about taxes and money? Join the crowd. We have some expert tips on how to alleviate some of that stress. Next on American Settlements.

A healthy 47 year old man in New Jersey has become the first documented fatality from a red meat allergy triggered by a tick bite known as Alpha gal syndrome. Researchers say he ate a hamburger at a barbecue, experienced severe symptoms hours later and collapsed. The allergy is spread by the Lone Star tick and causes immune reaction to red meat. Doctors warn that as ticks spread across the country, so does the risk.

For more, let's bring in the vice president of community affairs for Engineered Tax Services and the author of Duke Got A Boxer's Fight for Freedom and One Last Shot at Redemption, Charles Duke Tanner. Thank you so much for being on the show with us this morning. So, Duke, what more can you tell us about the grants and tax saving ways over at Engineered Tax Services? That looks pretty exciting.
- [43:42]
B
Oh, yeah, listen, man, you know, you know, I'm always give my Lord and savior Jesus Christ all the praise and glory because I'm so thankful for being here based off of that, that one last chance in that fight that I had. But Julio is making, he's paving the way for not just the Fortune 500 companies and the big businesses that's taken over in this world, but he's also open the doors for the small businesses. And you know, he has, he had put like people like myself and many others. We got a new grant writer named Whitney Fagan. So this coming just, just came to the team and he's making a way to where we help every class in the US to where they benefit from, you know, the taxes and grants and things of that nature to strive and live in America.
- [44:30]
A
Yeah. Well, I will forever love Julio because when I first moved to Palm beach, he told me, explained to me how if my dogs were the mascot of my business that they could be a tax deduction. And do you know how much money I spend on dogs, Duke? But anyway, President Trump pardoned you. You have great story after being sentenced to two life sentences for various drug crimes. What do you want people to take away from your story and how President Trump helped you, how Julio has helped you and how God has really blessed you?
- [45:03]
B
Well, you know, like I said, first and foremost, we're going to give it to God. But then I feel that the president is not getting his flowers in America the way they said today. The bill that he passed with the First Step act has helped over 40,000 plus men and women come Home early. And they're only giving him credit for saying that he helped, that he's helping his friends and rich people. But I was a guy from Gary, Indiana that had did 16 plus years and only thing that I had was my hope and my faith and my prayers and he heard those. And by him letting me go, it has led to me working for Julio, who has also led me to help so many small businesses, help so many families, you know, reconnect with their families in the inside and out to where all of that is a domino effect to the President and it's all for the good and glory of God. So with that being said, that's what I would want the world to know. He's not just helping his friends, he's helping, he's helping America.
- [46:06]
A
That's amazing to hear you say and really refreshing because I don't think a lot of people actually understand that perspective. You know, I do. But we only have a couple minutes left with you. But before we let you go, I want to ask you about the origins of your faith. That's how we started this segment. You continue to mention how important important your faith is. How did you become so close to God?
- [46:24]
B
I had to get a relationship. They gave me two life sentences and I had a two year old son at the time and I refused to be just a picture on the wall. And you guys gotta go to Amazon to get Duke, got life and really get the basics of my struggle. But actually my pastor at New Direction Church in Indianapolis, Indiana called me two days ago and said hey, God have led me to talk about your story. And he talked about my story yesterday out of the book of John. And I'm gonna make this short, but everybody know a quote where they say what John said, Jesus wept in the, in the Lazarus situation when they, when Lazarus died and he woke and they, they had faith, little faith that he wasn't going to be there to do it. And the reason why Jesus wept was because the lack of faith of Mary and the rest of the disciples. And that's the same thing goes on with us in America. When we, we have lack of faith. It makes Jesus cry because we supposed to have all the faith in the world that he can do it. It's just going to be upon his timing. And I got faith that's working with Julio and working with many others. And thanks to the President, we're going to stop letting small businesses close. We're going to stop letting different people have to think they be on different health insurances and everything throughout the country. We're going to get people not only self sustainability through these grants and through these tax breaks, but we're going to lead them home on and we're going to lead them to be real proud men and women of the United States of America. That's man Julio goes. That's tax equality and grant equality and I'm going to be the head of it.

Spike Lee, Cate Blanchett, Judd Apatow. All there but noticeably not there. Conservatives like Mel Gibson, Clint Eastwood, Jon Voight and Jane woods. Yeah, they were absent. The Vatican calls it cultural outreach, but the guest List says a whole lot about that outreach in a new papacy. It's still defining itself this. As the industry struggles and leadership shifts in Rome, this event actually raised one big question. Whose values are shaping the future of cinema and the church? Let's bring in Dr. Gina and David to discuss a little bit more. Dr. Gina, how do you see all of this? And the reality is the people who weren't necessarily invited or weren't there, it does speak volumes, I'll tell you.

I grew up in Catholic churches, went all the way through Catholic schools, even Catholic university. My heart just breaks for the good people I know who are Catholics who have had to endure. Now, two popes in a row, I've lost count. Is it three popes in a row? All the popes since Pope John Paul essentially, have been just not what the average Catholic that I know. And I just feel bad for them. That's all I can think about when I see things like this. What in the heck is this guy doing? What a mockery of God's faithful in the Catholic Church to be worried about getting to rub elbows with Hollywood elite. It sickens me, to be honest. TERRENCE David?
- [56:49]
B
Well, 100%, I agree with everything you said and why? Just because he's the Pope. I mean, all of a sudden there has to be this reverence because he's the Pope. I mean, if he's doing stuff that. That's just not biblical in many ways. And we can go down the list if you want to talk about the LGBT aspect of it. Or how about blessing a block of ice the other. You remember that from a month ago when he was blessing, literally, he was standing over a block of ice, blessing it at an environmentalism conference. Anyhow, just go down the list. I don't know.
- [57:21]
A
Open borders.
- [57:23]
B
Open borders. I mean, their list is so long. But the point is, you know, I do. I agree with you. I feel bad for the Catholics that are just like, you know, would like to see a Pope actually speak out on the traditional biblical values that are not only time honored and cherished, but are actually factual and accurate and biblical. Yeah. And let's not forget that the Pope is a man who is also fallible. And so don't put him on a pedestal above where he should be. Well, but a lot of people do. But a lot of people do. That's the thing. And that's the reality. And. And that's my warning. That's my warning. We shouldn't. Yes, you know, he is a man. Yes, he's a man. That's just it.

In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. He did create the heaven and the earth. Welcome back everybody to American Sunrise. All right, Time now for our moment of faith. It's brought to us by Lee Greenwood and the God Bless the USA Bible and also the guy with the great voice in focus today. The deeper meaning behind Scripture's small details. The connections that link the Old and New Testaments, the prophecies, patterns, symbols that reveal the Messiah's story in a way really most of us never see. To help us unpack all of that, we're joined by a special guest, a friend. Excuse me, I'm all choked up emotionally. He's a friend to Rav Rabbi Jason Sobel. He is a New York Times best selling author and the author of that new book, Go Get It Now. Transformed by the Messiah. Rabbi Sobel, thanks for being here. Well, tell us more about these connections and small details because they really are the fabric of our Judeo Christian history. Good morning to you. Hey, good morning. It's great to be back with you. Yeah. Listen, I think when we see these connections, we see the Bible in high definition. But think about it for a moment. The symbol of Christianity is the cross. But most people don't even ask the question, why did Jesus have to die on a cross? Well, think about it for a moment. Moment. How did sin enter the world? The first man and woman took from the tree. So God put Jesus back on the tree for you and me. Why were his hands pierced? Because our hands took from the tree. Why was his side pierced? Because Eve, who led him in temptation, was taken from the side. So he's making atonement for Eve. Why were his feet pierced? Because the first messianic prophecy is the seed of the woman would crush the head of the serpent. And so he's actually fulfilling that prophecy. A crown of thorns on his head. Why? Why? Because what's the curse on creation? The ground reproduced, thorns and thistles. He's literally taking the curse on his head to break it and restore God's blessing over our life. Okay, let me just say straight up, that was phenomenal. Oh my gosh. I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be honest with you. I've been a believer for what, almost 40 years? I'm trying to think, well, about 37 years. I've never heard it said that way. I love that. All right, alright. So which makes me think about the Bible and the connection between Old Testament prophecy and the fact that all of that comes alive in the New Testament. And if folks would just open their heart, they would see that. And I understand people hear prophecy and they go, oh gosh, okay, Isaiah, what? And how does that work? But talk to us a little bit about the connection in prophecy because it's there throughout the Bible. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, the Old Testament contains the job description of the Messiah. Messiah. And what we're doing and transformed by the Messiah is we're beginning with his birth, with his life and ministry, with his death and resurrection. And we're showing how all the promises and prophecies of the old point to winter fulfilled in Jesus. For example, Jesus is put in a garden tomb. Well, why in a garden tomb? Because Isaiah 53 says he was pierced for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities by his stripes were healed and he had to be buried in a rich man's tomb. A garden tomb was considered a rich man's tomb. And think about it for a moment. Why in a garden tomb? Because where did sin enter the world? In a garden. It all went wrong in a garden. He had to correct it in a garden. And we're going to return to a garden one day. And so all of these things are connected. Or when he's on the cross, he says, my God, my God, why have you forsaken me? He's actually quoting a psalm that goes on to say, say that his hands were pierced. They. They pierced my hands and my feet. So when the people are hearing this, that psalm is running through their mind where it says, they pierce his hands and his feet, they cast lots for his garment. And they're literally seeing these things spoken of long ago being fulfilled right before their eyes. Rabbi Soul. I'll tell you what, guys in the control room, I won't be here the next hour of the show. I'm going to talk to Rabbi Sobel. Great stuff. Phenomenal all right. I'll ping you offline, as they like to say. I appreciate you so much. Thanks, Rabbi Sobel. Thank you. Shalom. All right. Shalom, Al Q. Shalom. I like it. Go get the book, everybody.

Coming up on the second hour of American Sunrise, President Trump's feud with Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene escalating over the weekend. MTG says the president has deviated from his America first promises 47, formally withdrawing all support for her. We'll have latest on this throughout the show. Plus, the House is set to vote on releasing the highly anticipated Jeffrey Epstein files this week. We'll have analysis on that straight ahead. Also later, former first lady Michelle Obama broke her silence on speculation over a potential White House run. Will she or won't she? You can find out these stories so much more as the second hour of American Sunrise starts right now.
- [74:10]
B
Good morning, America.
- [74:13]
A
Welcome to American Sunrise. Whether it's culture, we have breaking news to share with you.
- [74:19]
B
Politics. President Trump is joining us live now from Florida. We've got you covered. This is what it looks like to be a patriot. We have to protect the American family.
- [74:31]
A
The American dream is still alive.
- [74:33]
B
David. I'm David Brody. I'm terrence.
- [74:36]
A
And I'm Dr. Gina.
- [74:43]
B
Welcome back, everybody, to the second hour of American Sunrise. I'm David Brody coming to you from D.C. let's bring in Dr. G in Wes Palm T Bates in our Denver newsroom. Good morning to both of you. You know, on the MTG Trump situation, Look, I mean, MTG loves America. President Trump loves America. Two things can be true at the same time. It's too bad that it's come to this, but that's the reality. And look, if you have policy disagreements, that's okay. That's called America.
- [75:10]
A
Dr. G. Yeah, yeah. I couldn't agree more. I, for one, am not willing to cede America first or MAGA or any of that. We've all worked too hard for too long. Look, we are one America. We are conservative, conservative, Christian Americans. And I think we need to focus on the things that we're all doing. Well, the things that we all agree on. I think it's okay to have disagreements. I'm not saying anybody shouldn't say the things they want to say. President Trump should be perfectly allowed to put up on X anything that he wants. And I'm never going to be one of those people saying President Trump needs to stop tweeting. No, he doesn't. It's apparently working out pretty well for him. And I will say that MTG has made it to where she is acting the way she does. So people don't need to be criticizing her either. Until you've walked a mile in someone's shoes, you really don't know their position or their heart. So let's give a little grace right now and let's talk about the things we agree on. And let's focus on the midterms. T. Yeah.
- [76:14]
B
Focus on the big picture, making sure that we continue to move this country forward and making sure that America and American, America's values and what's best for America is always put first. And speaking of what's best for America, Operation Charlotte's Web taking over Charlotte, North Carolina, as hundreds of U.S. customs and Border Patrol agents are in that city right now. It's the latest Trump administration crackdown on illegal immigration and crime over the weekend. More than 80 people were arrested as a result. Meantime, the Trump administration is targeting or the Trump administration's targeting of drug boats with narcotics headed for the United States continues. At least three people were killed when this boat, which the U.S. southern Command says was carrying drugs, was blown up. It is the 21st vehicle that's been targeted under this ongoing operation. And flights at the nation's 40 busiest airports are back to normal this morning after the SAFAA dropped its 10% flight restriction goal due to the government shutdown. The administration says safety isn't a concern anymore now that air traffic controllers are once again getting paychecks and staffing is back to normal. It's a welcome reprieve with the Thanksgiving holiday travel season set to start in the coming days. That's a quick check of your headlines. Now let's get a quick check of your forecast with Weather Nation meteorologist Tracey Anthony. By the way, don't forget to click the QR code. We're going to show you at the bottom of your screen. Scan that and join our friends over at Weather Nation. Tracy, one of the bigger stories weather wise this morning, though, is what's happening in Southern California and all the rain that has inundated that particular region of the country.
- [77:55]
A
Yeah, we've had a ton of records broke across the state and scenes like this with landslides and mudslides, especially in some of those burn scarred areas continue to be at risk today as moraine moves on through. But you can see this is the last 72 hours. The green dots, those are the storm reports where flooding has been reported. And we also had a handful of landslides and debris flows. So it can be a very dangerous situation. Water rescues going ongoing across the state. And today it's going to be Southern California that is really still at risk for the potential for some flooding. So it's the burn scarred areas where we could have rivers, creeks and streams also running on the swollen side. So we are starting the day off with more rain and that's definitely going to be insult to injury for the west coast and pretty quiet for the rest of the nation. A few systems we're watching across the northern tier of the country, but it's record here, potential down across the south central plains where we could be talking records broke all week. So, Terrence, I know we have a lot of viewers that chime in for that hometown forecast from areas like Texas. We don't have too many out west. So if you're watching from California, we'd love to give you a hometown forecast here, show you tomorrow how the week's going to shape up.
- [79:16]
B
All right, Tracy, thank you so much. And again, folks, you see that QR code down there at the bottom of your screen? Make sure you scan it and join our friends over at Weather Nation. That way you've got your local forecast at your fingertips, quite literally at any moment. All right, let's get back to the big story of the day. David, would you do the honor, sir? I would love to. Thank you very much. I appreciate that. All right, T. Bates, we're following the latest in the ongoing. What do you want to call it? You want to call it a feud, a spat? Fill in the blank between President Trump and Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. MTG has, of course, been one of the president's strongest supporters in Congress, but she says he's too focused on foreign policy, not promoting America first policies here at home. President Trump has withdrawn his support, called her Marjorie Traitor Greene. Joining us now with reaction is Florida Congressman Jimmy Petronas. Congressman Jimmy, good to see you. I guess you're Jimmy on this program, but you are Congressman, and you are a wonderful congressman at that. I'm channeling Gina, who loves you, to death. And we do, too. Look, this, this is tough to watch. I mean, that doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out. What are your thoughts here? Good morning to you, sir. Good morning. Great to be with you all. Look, look, families are allowed to have fights, and this is exactly what we've got. We've got a family squabble. You know, we're going to get back to work. We're going to vote out the discharge petition probably tomorrow. And you know what? Hopefully, you know, things will simmer and we get folks, focus. We don't have the margins to be at each other's throats right now. We've got so much we need to accomplish, so much we've got to do. And we can't allow these issues to keep us from doing the people's work. All right, you opened the discharge Petition door. So I'm going to walk through it. What is your expectation in terms of what will ultimately happen? I suspect that at this point, you've had conversations with fellow Congress members. Where do you think this thing is ultimately going to go? How do you plan to vote? Have you made your mind up already? Yeah. So, look, it's, it's going to pass out of the House. There's no guarantee anything's going to happen in the Senate. This thing can be dead on arrival when we get to the Senate. But I remind people the Democrats had all of the rights and abilities to do anything they wanted with these documents for the entirety of the Biden administration. They didn't use a single thing out of the, this set of documents they were sitting on to try to derail President Trump's successful, historic election bid back in November. So I really kind of questioned, you know, what was the value of this whole exercise other than to consume precious bandwidth that the president needs to use in order to get our country back on track? So, yeah, so we, we spun up some, some conspiracy theorists. We are going now vote this document. Now I'm just more focused about grinding, getting back to work. This week was supposed to be a little more of an abbreviated week. We're staying until Friday. We're going to, we're. I'm going to get up there this, later this morning. We're going to be there through the end of Friday evening, and we've got to catch up because the government was shut down due to the Democrats for almost 50 days. Yeah.
- [82:23]

I love what you said about family fights, because that is how this feels like. I know that, like, if anyone in my family is in a disagreement with anyone else in my family, it always just, it's sort of just a heartbreak. It just feels heavy in my heart. That's kind of how this feels. I think we need to realize that we don't battle against flesh and blood. I think we need to keep that in our heads and our hearts and continue to pray about situations on our own side of things while we look forward to midterms. Knowing what you said, Congressman Petronas, we don't have the margins to be focused on anything other than touting our many, many victories that we've all worked for for decades. Right. And looking forward to midterms and communicating with the American people about why they want to elect conservatives. But I was thinking about what David said at the top of the show. He said, you know, Gina just adores you. The reason I adore you is because of the maverick fighter positions you took as CEO of the state of Florida. You set records. You did things no one had ever dared to do. They were gutsy. My husband was always texting me just as I was going on air. You won't believe what Petronas did today, and I love that. And then I was thinking about you and your capacity as Congress. I know you love serving there. I know you love serving the great people in Florida. But it must be very different to go from an executive position to a congressional position. And just because there are so many people in our audience thinking of running for. For office, thinking of what offices to support, that they can be the most effective. I wanted to give you a chance to comment on that. Sure.
- [84:00]
B
And thank you for all those kind words. I tell people if you don't engage the elections process, you get the government you deserve. And I tell people all the time they're a little disarmed. They say, well, Jimmy, how's Washington? I said, it's actually full of a lot of nice people. There's a lot of good people that love this country. They care. They want to make a difference. Yeah. And look, every once in a while, we have a terrorist in the country group. But for the most part, the good outweighs the bad. But when you've got these razor thin margins, we've got to put our differences aside. You know, sometimes there'll be some coloring outside of the lines. But, guys, the big picture is we've got a country to save. You know, we've got a president who's a once in a lifetime president who is holding the administration together. And we've got to seize this opportunity of bringing back some sanity to how this country is governed. But there's a lot of good people up there. And you know what? I still have a boy that's 15 and 1, that's 17 that gets starstruck just like their daddy does every time we go to Washington, D.C. very nice. Well, a congressman struck now with you being here. Go ahead, David. I was going to ask you. Listen, before we let you go, 30 seconds or so back to the Epstein thing, so this thing gets voted out. I mean, who knows what the Senate will do and all that. But we understand it's going to be maybe over 100,000 documents here. Do you think we're actually going to get any sort of. When I say answers, are we going to get some names of people that might be up to some stuff that might be no good? I mean, do you have any sense of what's really even in these documents.
- [85:31]
A
And how heavily redacted they'll be when we get them.
- [85:33]
B
Exactly. Yeah. So I mean, that's the other question. So over 30,000 pages have already been released. The oversight committee is doing their job and pushing these documents out. The oversight committee has subpoenaed the Department of Justice for these documents commits. So there are things that the oversight committee that they were charged to do that they are doing that the administration is cooperating with. But you know, I do kind of get worried. I know we say victims, victims, victims. Don't forget about. There's also those victims out there that don't want to be traumatized again by being brought into the public light because of whatever may be exposed because of whatever involvement they have had with this terrible, you know, dead pedophile. Yeah. Congressman Petronas, great to have you. Or as we like to say, Jimmy from Florida. Hey, Jimmy. All right. Thank you. We love you, Congressman.
- [86:26]
A
Thanks, Jimmy.

Welcome back to American Sunrise. I'm American Sunrise contributor Emily Finn. It's great to have you with us this morning. Time now to drain the swamp. And this morning we are flushing out wasteful government spending. A new federal report reveals multiple states have made improper Medicaid payments to managed care organizations for enrollees who had already died, exposing ongoing oversight failures. The audit by the HHS inspector general found nearly 250 million in erroneous pay payments between 2009 and 2019, with about 42 million still unrecovered. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins also revealed similar issues with SNAP benefits, including payments going to deceased recipients, promoting plans for reform and reapplication requirements. For more, let's bring In David Brody, Dr. Gina and Terrence Bates. Terrence must admit, I don't know if this is really surprising. There's a whole lot of waste and ability abuse in our federal government.
- [92:27]
B
Oh, there absolutely is. And I think that's part of the reason that things you're chuckling. Dr. Gina I will yield to you momentarily. But I think that's part of the reason that Doge was so popular and that all of us here on this panel were so enthusiastic about Doge because it was finally being addressed, it was finally coming to light, and we felt like our tax dollars were actually being protected. And so I think now we're continuing to see that. And I think that's also. Dr. Gina part of the reason so many of us want Doge and those efforts to continue to be pushed and continue to be forefront. Go ahead. What were you going to say, though?
- [93:01]
A
Dr. Gina I was just laughing about Emily's joke waste in government. You know how shocked we all are. But David Brody with dogecoin, I don't think I'm clear on this. And I'm asking this as a serious question right now that I have a feeling you're going to know the answer to Somehow, I think because you're in the swamp, that you kind of know their minds or something. But what did happen with the whole Doge thing? Now that Elon is out, we can't use that word anymore. Tell me, what was the transition there? I'm trying to understand.
- [93:30]
B
I don't think it's much of a transition as it is. It's just less of a kind of an outward PR effort, if you will. You know, Elon was the big, you know, kind of eye candy, if you will. But that doesn't mean the geek squad isn't still there and they're doing their job. I just think it's been, if you will, routed. I think that's the best word, routed through a lot of these agencies. You know, Marco Rubio with Secretary of State and Hegseth at Defense. I mean, remember when Elon Musk came in, there was a controversy. And it was, and I pointed it out at the time, there was controversy because Elon Musk, many of the cabinet agencies, or, excuse me, cabinet members, felt that he was kind of going rogue and having all this kind of power, if you will. And then that changed. They said, hey, we need not rein in Elon Musk, but we need to rein in kind of our territory here. I mean, this is. This is our agency that we're talking about. Why is Elon Musk have all this power? And I think at that point it just got more in certain lanes within each agency. And I think that's really what's going on now. So you don't get the big headlines, but it's still there, but it's just going to be slower and more methodical. Right. DOGE is absolutely still active and the efforts are still underway, as I understand it. It's just, you know, you don't have the face of Elon Musk that there. Which of course brought even more headlines to it. And to some degree, David, I think it's probably not a bad idea. I'm glad the work is still going on. It doesn't necessarily have to be fully publicized, but the main thing is that the work is being going on, that savings are happening and that our tax dollars are being protected with the same zeal. That would be my position. I'd love to hear your thoughts. With the same zeal, different tactic. Maybe not the same zeal, but the same tactics. But they're. Excuse me, different tactics. So let me. Let me tell you what I'm trying to. Here's what I'm trying to say. The same zeal is There, there. But it's a different tactic. And what I mean by that is Russ Vote specifically at omb. I mean, he's doing a lot of the behind the scenes dirty work. Remember, Russ Vote and Elon Musk were kind of tag teaming this together. Elon Musk got all the headlines. Russ Vote was just kind of like the wonky guy with the calculator in the pocket behind the scenes. But Russ Vote is still there with his calculator doing the dirty work.
- [95:38]
A
I would love to see, I know we have to go. I would love to see an accountability of what we've saved, where money has gone and how it benefits the American people. I think that PR is really important. That's what I love that Musk was doing.
- [95:50]
B
And just so you know, that's where you're going to see the rescission packages coming down from Trump, from this White House and Congress. You'll see Doge show up in those rescission packages. That's how it'll work. And it'll work through OMB and Russ.
- [96:01]
A
Good. Yeah, I think the PR stuff is really important, especially ahead of the midterms. But I have to ask you guys, I mean, do you remember the young man that went to work for Doge that they nicknamed Big Balls? He got assaulted and I hope that he's recovered because I think he needs to be the new face of this. He is. He's been speaking around at different events that I go to and speak at. So yeah, he's around. All right. Well, hope that Doge is still, still doing well. All right, coming up, we're headed down to Wall street for the opening bell and a bold new plan from billionaire Bill Ackman to lower mortgage costs in America.

They come from God. With AMAC and Real America's Voice. Go ahead. Scan the QR Code now. Welcome back everyone. We're getting you ready for the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange. It's set to ring here, here. And let Me look at my clock here. Of course, my phone is old. And about six minutes from right now, we of course will take you there. Here's a look at pre market trading not starting off on such a positive note, really only one positive spot at the very bottom of our screen. But we'll continue to monitor all of this for you. And again, we'll take you to the New York Stock Exchange for the opening bell here in just a few minutes. First, though, let's get you over to David Brody. David sir, good morning. Good morning to you, T. Bates. All right. Time now for our daily dose of dollars and common center sense. It's Jake Novak time. He's the American Sunrise EARLY Edition host. He's also the guy behind Jake's Takes substack. All right, Jake, good to see you. So there's billionaire Bill Ackman has long been hinting that he's got a plan to reduce mortgage costs in America. So now apparently is it time for the big reveal. What's going on? Yeah. Tomorrow he's going to do an X spaces and explain what he's been hinting at for a long time, which is consolidating Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, which are the federally backed basically mortgage clearinghouse banks into one. And he thinks that that will really consolidate costs as well and lower costs. Look, I'm all for new ideas, David. And the fact that when anyone proposes a new idea, they get these crazy pushbacks like President Trump did with the 50 year mortgage, that's very suspect to me. Doing what we've been doing all along, the old stuff isn't going to work. We know it isn't going to work work. And I really dislike when people don't even give a new idea a chance. So I'm going to give it a chance. I'm going to watch it and I'll see if I think it makes sense. And hopefully it'll help. Anything to help. This is my biggest, as you know, this is my biggest concern about the economy, the affordability of housing. We've, I have some ideas of my own as well, but I'm certainly not going to turn a deaf ear to someone else's ideas. And so I'm looking forward to it. I hope, I hope it makes sense. All right. You're going to give peace a chance, as John Lennon would say, or at least give this a chance. All right. President Trump also trying to reduce costs. So this time apparently at the groc restore what's his latest move on that front? This is important. I mean, they need to work on this. Yeah. You know, David, this is one of my most biggest pet peeves now. And this is one of the stupidest things that people are saying all the time. The Democrats and lefties and other people who are ill informed. Have you heard this thing where they say taco? Trump always chickens out. You know, if you know someone who's saying that, tell them, tell them that it makes them sound stupid. I mean, it makes them sound like they don't understand business. Business. What Trump does is offer and counteroffer. He bobs and weaves. That's what business people do. And don't embarrass yourself by saying taco. Yes, President Trump imposed tariffs on El Salvador, Guatemala and Argentina, and now he's going to rescind some of them. He's going to cut some of them because he wants to get grocery prices lower, but he's not getting rid of them entirely. This is about give and take. Just because you have a policy. It's not like Trump is a career diplomat or bureaucracy Democrat who's never gonna change a policy. So if you know anyone who says Taco over this tariff thing, tell them that it make, it's making them sound stupid and they shouldn't do it. This is what we do in business. And I like this. He's gonna go back and forth and maybe he'll bring the tariffs higher again. I don't know. But this is about business. It's a living, moving thing. Well, yeah, it's called flexibility. It's called the art of the deal. This is what you do. I mean, it's obvious. It's ridiculous. And by the way, anytime I hear Trump and Taco, I think of that Cinco de Mayo, Ohio spot he cut in the first campaign. That was hilarious. Yeah. With that classic, oh, gosh. All right, less than a minute left. You got Ford's CEO. He's echoing a concern about the American workforce that we've heard for years from other voices. But he might be in a position to do something about it. So tell us here, sir. Yeah, I'll tell you real quickly. Jim Farley saying he can't get enough mechanics. We know that this, we know about the blue collar, skilled blue collar worker crisis in America. That's nothing new. But when Jim Farley talks about it at Ford, he can do something about it. He can tell the UAW to go pound sand and that they're going to start their own training problem programs and apprentice programs and the unions again because they don't care about new workers at the unions, they just want Viagra and other retirement benefits for their older and retired workers. That the UAW is just a retirement Ponzi scheme. That's all it is. And it's not bringing new workers in. So Farley needs to team up with President Trump and people like me who will say this is the right way to go. Start your own apprentice programs. You've got the money. You have the room and the space. Do it. And forget the uaw. Jake Novak, always appreciate your time. Thank you, sir. My pleasure. All right. Oh, and a salute. I love the salute at the end. It feels so official. It's like it's over. That's it. We're done. All right. Time for teammates at this New York Stock Exchange. It's sponsored by AMAC Teammates. The association of Mature American Citizens is the conservative voice for American Americans 50 and older. AMAC is fighting for the values that you hold dear. Join today. Together we can write the course of America. We're less than a minute away from the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange. You're going to hear applause momentarily. And that will be our countdown for the bell. You hear the applause right there. And we showed you the pre market trading numbers just a little while ago. Not starting this week of trading off on such a hot note. But hopefully all of that will change once the runners get moving there and on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange and once this day of trading gets underway. Webster bank is at the podium. The bell is now ringing, which means the markets are officially open. And just like that, we're seeing a bit of a change. The Dow and The S&P 500 are still down, but it looks like the NASDAQ. Well, for a second it was up and now it just went back down. Really only one bright spot earlier when we showed you this board, crude oil was up, but it is back down in the red as well. So a topsy turvy day already starting there at the New York Stock Exchange as the markets are up and down, up and down, up and down. Hopefully they will close up, particularly if you're going to be one of the people investing. Still to come here on American Sunrise, the feud between Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene and President Trump continued continues to escalate. We'll have the very latest for you after the break. First, though, here's a word from David Brody about what you need to know about crypto.com. you know, Trump Media just signed a massive 6.4 billion dollar deal with Yorkville Acquisition Corps and crypto.com which is the crypto platform trusted by millions of users worldwide. They're teaming up to acquire up to $6.4 billion in Croatia to establish America's first publicly traded CRO treasury. The Trump media group CRO strategy once complete, this new company is going to be the largest publicly traded CRO holder out there. Well, if you're ready to join the crypto revolution, here's what you do. You head to crypto.com today and be part of this historic move. Once again, crypto.com do not wait.

All right. Welcome back to American Sunrise. I have Colin serenading me in my ifb. So that's the reason why I'm laughing as I come into the same week. Best crew, big hand for them. American Sunrise here with you this Monday. I'm Dr. Gina. Thanks for joining us this morning. We invite you to join our conversation on Getter and Rumble. It is time now to take the political pulse of America the beat. Today, President Trump officially says he's cutting ties with one of his biggest longtime supporters. Most recognizable MAGA allies, Georgia Congress Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. In a sharp social media post, he said he's withdrawing his support and endorsement. Stunning break after years of very close alignment between the two. The split comes just weeks after public tension. Greene has been openly criticizing some of MAGA priorities, saying President Trump is too focused on foreign policy, not Enough on America First Agenda. Here's what she told CNN's Dana Bash.
- [115:03]
B
Yes, his remarks, of course, have been hurtful. However, I have something in my heart that I think is incredibly important for.
- [115:12]
A
Our country and that is to end the toxic fighting in politics.
- [115:18]
B
And this has been going on for years and it has divided our country, split up friends and families, neighbors, and it's not solving our problems. The most hurtful thing he said, which is absolutely untrue, is he called me a traitor. And that isthat is so extremely wrong. And those are the types of words used that can radicalize people against me and put my life in danger.
- [115:46]
A
Mm. And she talked even more online about the things that she's been going through since those comments. Joining us now with analysis, the host of the Steve Gruber Show. That would be Steve Gruber. Just in case you guys were wondering who hosted the Steve Gruber Show, I know it was a big mystery right up until I announced it. Steve, this is disheartening to me. Love them both. President Trump is a friend. MTG is a friend. I know of every single one of us. Two biggest icons of the America first movement, two of the people who motivated many of us to get out and vote in several of the last election. Personally, my feeling, Steve, is I just don't want to let this take root. I don't want to let it take root. I don't even want to acknowledge it. I want to be talking about all the stupid things the Democrats have done, starting with the fact that they actually voted God out of their platform years ago and have never come back to him. Good point, Steve, what's your thought?
- [116:43]
B
One of the things she talked about in that CNN interview that was not in that clip was reconciliation, saying she hopes that her and Donald Trump, the president, can put this behind them to bury the hatchet, if you will. I'm paraphrasing a little, but that's important. Reconciliation here is important and the reason is pretty simple. Look, Democrats walk together all the time. Republicans, as we know, tend to splinter more often than Democrats. That's part of the problem we have getting legislation done in this country. But reconciliation, incredibly important. Focus on the achievements of this administration so far, which I think she has. She's been a big supporter of the president, as you mentioned. And I hope this fallout is shortly. I hope that we can get past this because the midterms are on the horizon now. One of the things that she said that I think resonates with people is affordability. It's true in Georgia. It's true in Michigan, where I live. I'm sure it's true in Florida. Affordability is front and center certainly for Gen Z. And we have to get on board with that or we're going to have a real painful midterm election. So working together, putting America first, has to continue to be at the forefront of what this movement is and what this movement believes, because without it, we're going to get a Mamdani type election in 2026. Nobody wants that. Donald Trump doesn't want that. Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want that. I don't want that. And I don't think most people watching this program want that. So I'm hopeful that her words about bearing toxic conversations resonates some. I hope that Donald Trump will remember that she's an ally, not an enemy. And I think that we'll move forward. That's my hope here. And focus on the midterms, not these distractions, because this is a big distraction that of course, Democrats are gleeful about. Of course they want to talk about anything except their disastrous shutdown and their open borders and all the policies that hurt America. So they're more than happy to talk about this because they have nothing to offer anybody except that they hate Marjorie Taylor Greene until now and now she's a hero to them or some silly thing. They hate Donald Trump anything he does. We know that. So again, reconciliation of working together and focusing on the achievements thus far and the achievements still to come before the meeting, midterms, I think that's where the energy needs to be spent. Yeah, yeah. I mean, the libs are salivating over all of this for sure. Steve, we want to get your reaction. Yeah. To the latest Epstein news. So first, let's start with this Friday. You had Attorney General Pam Bondi, who ordered the Department of Justice to investigate prominent Democrats who have allegedly been linked to the disgraced sex offender, including former President Clinton. And then of course, you have the vote that we're expecting tomorrow. Over 100 Republicans, Republicans going to vote on these release of all of these Epstein files by the DOJ, at least 100, probably a whole lot more. And then President Trump finally now saying, yeah, go ahead, you know what, House Republicans, you vote for it. Knock yourself out. What do you make of all of that? I think that the vote for the release of these documents, whatever there are, will happen. Look, I played a clip earlier on my program here on Real America's Voice of Donald Trump in 2015, right after he announced announced his bid for the presidency the first time. And he talked about not just the connection to Jeffrey Epstein of Bill Clinton, but also of Prince Andrew. He was pointing this out back in 2015 and said that Bill Clinton had a big problem with that island. And he was right. And we saw what happened to Prince Andrew, who's not a prince anymore. He's just Mr. Windsor. I guess the fact of the matter is Donald Trump was calling this out in 2015. That does not sound like a man who's connected in any way to this Epstein nonsense. We know that he Democrats cherry picked three emails. That's it. And Virginia Giphry was one of those emails, but there's nothing there. She wrote it in her book that Donald Trump always was polite and pleasant and professional. It's another big nothing burger, I think, from the Democrats. Careful what you wish for, Democrats. There might be things in here you didn't want to see in public. And here it comes because you pushed it so hard. And so there it is. I warn Democrats, careful, but you're going to get what you want.
- [120:37]
A
Yeah, it almost, you know, listening to you, Steve, speak so ominously about what might transpire with Democrats, makes me wonder if President Trump wasn't playing chess this whole time and opposing it so that he could ultimately get them to push back, thinking there was something in there about him when it was really all about them. That would be such a Trumpian thing to do. Ooh, Steve Gruber, you got my wheels turning. All right. Well, we appreciate you. Thanks for being with us as always. Always.

Thank you. Thanks, Steve.

All right, guys, we all have two ages, the number of years we've been alive, and our biological age, which measures how fast our cells and organs are actually aging. The problem, though, for most Americans is that biological age is 8 to 16 years older than their chronological age. And that gap can mean a higher risk of serious health issues and a shorter life. But there's good news. A new study out of Auburn University in Alabama says you can lower your biological age and it may take just one simple addition to your normal routine. Today, we're breaking down what exactly that means and how this one change could help turn your body's clock right back and maybe make your biological age even younger than your chronological age. Joining us now with more is the CEO of Brickhouse Nutrition, Miles Vomard. Miles, tell us about this Auburn University Field of Green study. And I'm going to, as an Alabama fan, forgive that it is an Auburn study and go ahead and listen because it's you guys.
- [123:16]
B
Yeah, well, you guys have a better football team this year, so no worries there. But yes, the study is extremely exciting because there's so many fruit and vegetable products on the market today and many of them sound healthy, but they're just common products with no real science behind them. And field of greens is different. And so we wanted to prove that with a university study because field of greens, each fruit and vegetable inside of it was medically selected for their studied health benefits. There's a heart health group group, a cell Health Group 1 for liver, kidney, lungs. There's even some for metabolism and healthy weight management. And so we wanted to really put field of Greens to the test because your biological age is determined by the health of those vital organs and your cells. So we brought on Auburn University to do health and biological age study. And the results were remarkable. In the study, the participants, they changed nothing. They kept the same diet. They would eat fast food, they didn't exercise more or quit drinking. The only difference they made was adding field of Greens daily. And so after substantial medical testing and studies, the Auburn University study did show that field of Greens, it was what we said, it does. It, it helps everything and lowers that biological age. It actually, it slowed the aging of the participants and lowered their biological age, which means that just by taking field of Greens, the participants involved in this study, their cells were younger, and that means more active years on their life just by taking field of greens. And this is something that none of our competitors can say. And there's, you know, a university and clinical studies backing this up that says, add field of greens to your diet and you can get some extra active years out of your life.
- [125:01]
A
That's so cool.
- [125:02]
B
But, yeah, that's.
- [125:03]
A
I mean, that's huge. That's huge, as somebody might say. But what I love about field of Greens is the time savings. You know, taking all those supplements, making sure you didn't forget any, keeping them all out on the count, it can be excruciating. What I love about field of Greens is you guys consolidate. And I saw on the website that you just launched a new whey protein. Give us a sneak preview of that.
- [125:27]
B
Yeah, I mean, Brick House, with all of our products, if we can't, I mean, we have a team of doctors and we have them on staff for a purpose. If we can't make a product that's either better or different than what's currently on the market, we don't sell. So we're a nutrition company that just finally launched a protein because, I mean, there's competitors out there that have always had great protein. But the difference, difference of the Brick House whey, our newest protein, is that it's a fermented protein, and so it's biologically similar to your typical whey protein. But the difference is the fermentation product, it doesn't come from cows, where you have to worry about, you know, what they've been injected with and the hormones and stuff like that. And it's also lactose free, so it's easier on the stomach for the clients. It tastes great. And yeah, you get all the benefits of the whey without having to worry about the stomach issues and, and that kind of thing. And it's very exciting. And also, I mean, tomorrow is our huge launch of our holiday, our holiday sale, the Black Friday sale, Thanksgiving sale. But I just talked to the team before this. If you use code BFCM30, it's 30% off everything. It won't show up on our website just yet. But if you use the code, you, everyone listening can get 30% off. And also for your audience, BFCM 30.

It includes a reformulated toothpaste, an innovative toothbrush, and a refreshing antibacterial mouthwash that all support a healthy mouth.

However, the Colgate Total Active Prevention System is extremely effective at fighting the root cause of these oral health issues. In fact, the three products were designed to work together to be 15 times more effective at reducing bacteria buildup in six weeks starting from week one compared to a non antibacterial fluoride toothpaste and flat trim toothbrush.

In a recent interview, Michelle Obama once again shut down speculation that she might run for president. Appearing on stage with actress Tracee Ellis Ross at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Obama said the US Is still not ready for a woman to lead. Let's take a look at this.
- [132:36]
B
Well, as we saw in this past.
- [132:39]
A
Election, sadly we ain't ready. That's why I'm like, don't even look at me about running because you all are lying. You're not ready for a woman. You are not. So don't waste my time.
- [132:53]
B
You know, we got a lot of.
- [132:54]
A
Growing up to do. Obama went on to stress she's never wanted to be a politician and believes there are other ways to make an impact outside elected office. For more, let's bring In David Brody, Dr. Gina and Terrence Bates. You know Gina, I have to go to you first on this one. I don't know if I'm more upset about the fashion choices that she made or the egregious things that she said about women. I mean, that was horrible. What in the heck is she wearing? Whoever is dressing her needs to be banned from styling forever and ever. It's her shoes melt into her tights, then there's a butt cape. I don't know man, it's just weird. But let me say this. She insulted the entire American people. Did you hear that America? You have a lot of growing up. Who the heck do you think you Are I really. I really, I know the Bible, you know, it does, it does say hate with a perfect hatred when it's against unrighteousness. So I guess I'm okay there. But, you know, my grandma told me if I don't have something nice to say, don't say anything. And I've already said too much, so I don't know. Terrence, you talk fast before I say something awful.
- [134:07]
B
Quite honestly, Emily, I'm curious about your thoughts. You obviously feel that she's attacking women. I'm curious.
- [134:13]
A
Well, honestly, I think that she probably had lunch with Hillary Clinton before she went on stage and had a conversation about how this doesn't work out for Democrat first ladies. But the key is it's Democrat first ladies on the Republican side. We totally embrace women, and we support women to reach their higher calling and be able to do whatever they want to do. And I just really think that this is a difference between how the two parties view femininity in this country. Anne Amerito and we could tell the whole country to grow up. I mean, who do you think you are, right? Brody?
- [134:42]
B
I don't know about that. I think there's a lot of people out there that don't want to vote for a woman for president, and I still think that's prevalent out there.
- [134:50]
A
I do, really, if it's the right woman.
- [134:53]
B
And let me just finish, I think it's in the conservative atmosphere as well, for sure, not in the liberal one as much, but definitely the conservative atmosphere. I've experienced it, not because I'm a woman, but because I've actually seen and heard stories from people, not in my necessarily neck of the woods, but when I cover politics and I'm out there on the campaign trail and I see it, trust me, they'll come up to me and say, no, not, not in a million years, we'll do it.
- [135:18]
A
Respectfully, David Brody, I know we disagree on a lot of things, but even internationally, we're seeing conservative women really rise to positions of power. Georgia Maloney in Italy is a prime example of. Of that.
- [135:28]
B
Yeah, but I'm not talking about George Maloney. I'm talking about people in certain states in this country that won't say it out loud, but I'm telling you, there is an underbelly of that. You need to trust me on this because I cover this stuff for a living. And I'm telling you, it's out there.
- [135:45]
A
David, just one more thing. I know they're ringing the bell on us, but. David, just one more thing. Even if that's true, that's not the reason Michelle Obama will never be elected president. That's an excuse and it's a lame one. Michelle. And you just have to stage and take your cape with you 100%.
- [135:59]
B
Let me say a couple things about how she's dressed. No, I have nothing to say about how she's dressed.
- [136:03]
A
I don't know. This was very girl power. Gina, I love this segment. A great discussion. Still to come on American Sunrise, a golfer in the UK owes his life to a friend who sprang into action during a video call. What she saw on her screen and the race to save him.

All right. Welcome back to American sunrise. I'm Dr. Gina. Thanks so much for joining us today. The time now for our sunny side up and in the pan. Today it was supposed to be just another weekend round of golf, but a video call between two friends turned into a life or death emergency. When Shannon Jeffries saw her friend Darren Oliver suddenly go gray and drop out of frame, she knew something was terribly wrong. With only seconds to spare, she raced to his home, found him slumped over the steering wheel and began life saving actions until paramedics arrived months later. He has lost over £100. He's back on the golf course carrying the golf ball ball that Shannon placed in his hand as he fought to stay alive. It's a great story about turning your life around at the most critical moment. But, David, the thing about it is you can't wait until that critical moment to make the healthy changes. Right.
- [142:00]
B
Well, okay, that's true. I guess we bury the lead there.
- [142:04]
A
I didn't mean that to you, David.
- [142:09]
B
No, I know, Terrence. You're just a muckraker. You're just trying to, you know, I got you trying to rake them up. Oh, my gosh. That's funny. Did I? Thank you, Dr. Dina. I needed that laugh after today. I needed that. Thank you. That's funny. Did I miss something about Back away from the cake, David? Yeah, yeah. Do they have any sort of. Are they just friends? I missed that. Were they related at all?
- [142:32]
A
I don't think so. I think they're just friends.
- [142:35]
B
Well, that's awesome. I mean, it's awesome either way. Don't get me wrong. But I just like it when it's friend helping friend, neighbor helping neighbor. I feel like I want to sing a song about a neighbor helping a neighbor. Neighbor. What am I saying? I don't know. Go ahead, Terrence. You know what? We often talk about God intervening in these situations. And this is another situation. I think that it's clear. God intervened. The fact that they happened to be kind of talking, happened to be in communication, and she noticed something that's not just by happenstance. God was sending a warning, and God helped to protect him by putting him in this situation. And so I think sometimes you have to look past kind of the awe of the situation and really give God the credit. That's. That's my takeaway.
- [143:19]
A
That's it. You know, this Weekend had a great sermon from a pastor. I'm trying to think of the name of the church I went to with my son this weekend. It was Jupiter Calvary. Jupiter Calvary. And the pastor there, his first name is Dan, made a great point. You guys have probably heard this before, but for some reason, this really struck me and I've been thinking about it ever since. Since I was thinking about it regarding the MTG and Trump situation right now and so on. He said, misery becomes ministry. So whatever it is you're going through right now, I even put an excerpt in my new book about it that's a devotional for Christians, for patriot warriors, for this audience. You know, whatever you're going through right now, whatever misery you're suffering right now, God will turn that into your ministry. And that's exactly what happened in this situation. You have this man who went through this misery, and look, now he's on nationwide TV shows being highlighted for it. So that's how God works. It's hard to keep that in perspective when you're in the midst of the misery, though.
- [144:13]
B
Yeah. You know, I'm really on the show this weekend, and when I'm reading through the book of Philippians, it's all about Paul. Right? Talking about how his misery has turned into a ministry right there in jail. No, absolutely. Don't worry. Worship. My pastor always says that. And that's something. Something that sticks in my mind.
- [144:30]
A
I like that a lot better than don't worry, be happy. But now I'm gonna be stuck on that stupid song all day, Terrence. And I'm gonna be mad at you about it. And I'm gonna get on the show tomorrow in a bad mood. I'm teasing. War Room is up next. You guys help your children. Love God. Go boldly now. Live the truth.

Have a good one, everybody. I'm Rodney Williams. And I'm Travis. Welcome to the Wealth Break podcast, a real conversation about finance. Let's be honest. Building wealth doesn't look the same for everyone.

A
I feel like sometimes being broke is a cycle and that we might have to revisit that.
- [145:09]
B
And we're not stopping at success stories.
- [145:11]
A
What happens when it doesn't go right? How do you cope with it?
