This is an iHeart podcast. Ahead on American Sunrise. The ceasefire now in effect. Phase one of the Israel Hamas peace deal is done. The hostages set to be released within the next 72 hours. But what phase two and beyond looks like, well, that's going to be even harder. And we're going to head to the region for the latest. Plus, breaking news this morning. President Trump denied the Nobel Peace Prize. In moments, a look at who won and why. The president shouldn't take his eyes off the prize just yet. Also breaking this morning, the hunter becomes the hunted. New York Attorney General Letitia James, a longtime opponent of President Trump, indicted on charges of bank fraud, sending a clean, clear message that justice must be served for all. And swifties revolt. Taylor Swift having to shake off some criticism from her fans. Why are Swifties rebelling against her new record? The life of a showgirl. There's a MAGA tie in. We have those stories and more as American Sunrise starts on a Friday right now. Good morning, America. Welcome to American Sunrise. Whether it's culture, we have breaking news to share with you. 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. The American dream is still alive. I'm David Brody. I'm terrence. And I'm Dr. Gina. Good morning. I'm Dr. Gina. We are live with you this Freedom Friday from the Palm Beaches. Let's bring in David Brody and Washington, D.C. terrence Bates in our Denver newsroom. Good morning, gentlemen. No Nobel Peace Prize for Donald Trump. No, no, no. Somebody you never heard of got it instead. That makes complete sense, right, Terrence? Yeah, absolutely. Her name is Maria Karina Machado. She's a venezuelan Democracy campaigner. Dr. Gina, I'm just trying to give you the facts, doctor. Dr. Gina's like, oh, yeah, it ain't Trump. I don'. He is the winner. And basically all of this reportedly came down to the fact that the nominations were due in January. Of course, President Trump just being inaugurated in January, but there's always 20, 26 guys. It could very well happen. David. Oh, boy. I guess. But actually, I don't guess. Actually, I do guess. And my guess is no. Look, here's the deal, all right? Let me just say President Trump getting a Nobel Peace Prize is like President Trump winning a lifetime achievement award from the White House Correspondence Association. Okay? Let's just be clear. That's what we're talking about here. Clearly, President Trump, Gina, needs to up his game. Solving eight wars is not enough. He's gonna have to go for 20. He's gonna have to be a card carrying member of the globalist community and he's gonna probably have to give four pints of blood and that may get him on the short list. Dr. G. What's gonna be cute is watching all of the news, try to gaslight their audience, the mainstream news, whatever you want to call them, the old school news. Trying to gaslight their audiences into. Into believing that they is that. Got this. She's gorgeous. I have no clue who she is. Never heard of her in my entire life. Yeah. So anyway, let's get to the Bible verse. What do you say? Little forgiveness might be in order. Something, I don't know, God's justice. Right. Anyway, today's Bible verse is from Psalm 37, verses 3 through 6. Trust in the Lord and do good. Dwell in the land and feed on his faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the Lord, and he shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord. Trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light and your justice as the noonday. All right, there you go. There's the word justice. Don't we love that our Bible mentions that so often? All right. Reaction continues to pour in regarding Israel and Hamas agreeing to the first phase of the peace deal proposed by President Trump. Trump says he's heading to Egypt for the signing. Take a look. We ended the war in Gaza and really on a much bigger basis, created peace. And I think it's going to be a lasting peace, hopefully an everlasting peace, peace in the Middle East. We secured the release of all of the remaining hostages and they should be released on Monday or Tuesday. Getting them is a complicated process. I'd rather not tell you what they have to do to get them. They're places you don't want to be. But we are getting the hostages back on Tuesday, Monday or Tuesday. And that will be a day of joy. I'm going to try and make a trip over. We're going to try and get over there and we're working on the timing, the exact timing. We're going to go to Egypt where we'll have a signing, an additional signing. We've already had a signing representing me, but we're going to have an official signing. The president will be headed there on Sunday. For more, let's bring in Jerusalem Post writer, Chairman of Judaism 3.0 think tank and author of a great book, by the way. A must read. The Assault on Judaism. The existential. Existential, rather, threat is coming from the West. Gal. Kalev. Gal. You know, I was listening to local talk radio on my way into the studio this morning, and one of the questions that was asked was, what is President Trump's popularity in Israel? About 100% approval rating, I was gonna say. It was like that when I was there. What year was I there? You might know better than I do. And I remember people, you know, I was there with a bunch of liberal journalists, liberal women journalists, and they would come up to me and whisper in my ear that they love President Trump. And it was so confusing for me because these were people who were, you know, defending Palestine and all the things, and I was like, but you love President Trump. What? It was so strange. So 100%. Sounds about right to me. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. We love and grateful to President Trump for what's happening now. Yeah. So, Gaul, let's get to some news this morning. The United States is sending about 200 troops to Israel to help support and monitor this ceasefire deal in Gaza. Apparently, it's part of a team that includes other partner nations. So it's basically like this civil military coordination center, and it'll be in Israel. It'll help facilitate that flow of humanitarian aid and also logistical and security stuff into Gaza. I'm curious to get your reaction. Then I have another question, because my ego is saying, I need two questions in a row. I'll answer this one quickly. I mean, we are ecstatic here in Israel that the hostages are coming. There is some logistical aspects of that. Naturally, there's a very heavy price that we are paying for that, including the release of murderers and rapists that are going to join the Hamas command structure. We're withdrawing from territory that will be part of the Hamas territory. But this is a price that we deem worth paying, because we in Israel have a great deal of love, mutual assurance, camaraderie, and one of our core values is we never leave anybody behind. So this is a great day to be Israeli. We're getting our hostages back, and we look forward to that, gal. So the second part here is, let's look at Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying, this deal would never have happened if it weren't for the president. Take a look. But frankly, I don't know of any American president in the modern era that could have made this possible because of the actions you have taken unrelated to this and because of who you are and what you've done and how you're viewed. And this weekend, because of that at some point very soon, we are going to see 20 living human beings emerge from the darkness into the light for the first time in two years. And that is because not only were you used the credibility and the power and the prestige of this office and the relationships you created, and you committed yourself to making it happen. And I think it will go down to the historic moment. Goll, he's right. I want to quickly say this. Peace through strength. President Trump continued to say peace through strength. And it sounds like a great line, obviously, and it's more than a line. Reagan said it too. But in practice, that's exactly what happened here. We're getting some peace because of strength. And specifically, you had the Houthis, all of those strikes against the Houthis, what was it, 800 or so back in March? So he's wiping the Houthis out. And then you had the Iranian nuclear strikes in June. So there's the strength and now comes the peace. That is showing it actually in practice, rather than it just being a line. This deal does not happen without those two key events. I believe 100%. I completely agree with you and with Secretary Rubio. This deal would not have happened had not been for President Trump, I think for two reasons. One is because of his personal clout. We are very lucky to, just as it so happened, have a dealmaker in the White House at this time. And I was an investment banker. I did a lot of mergers and acquisitions deals that were very complicated. But this one is on a totally different level. And for President Trump to be able to put everybody together, countries, terrorist organizations, people with competing interests and get them all together and make this deal is phenomenal. So this is thanks to President Trump personal clout. But it's also exactly as you said, David, because over the last 10 months, there's been a transformation in America. And America have shifted from a posture of appeasement and weakness into a posture of strength. This is, you know, today is the day that MAGA has turned from a theory or some sort of an idea to practice. MAGA delivered peace here because we only are having peace here because of this astonishing strength that America displayed and the shift of the perception of what America is, you know, from now it's being respected. So when President Trump is leveraging that strength, that's what we have. Exactly as you said, David. We are having peace through strength thanks to the leadership of President Trump. Gaul, David opened the door. So my ego is going to join his and walk through that door and ask you a two parted question here. The first part is the victory, of course, will be the actual release of the hostages of I'm going to hold my applause until it actually happens, given that it's Hamas still in play here. But the question to that is, what happens beyond the release of those hostages? Will there be disarmament? Do you trust Hamas to actually follow through on the rest of phase one, which includes disarmament? That's the first part of the question. Second part of the question, I'd love to get your perspective on how important the other Arab nations are in making sure there is an everlasting. That's a quote from President Trump piece here. How important is Qatar, how important is Egypt, how important is Turkey to forcing Hamas hand and holding Hamas accountable? So there is the first part of the question about I absolutely do not trust Hamas and we, you know, we have to expect more for Hamas is not going to all of a sudden loving us. The only reason they're doing this is because of our soldiers and commanders and Prime Minister Netanyahu putting extreme pressure on them and winning the military battle. And now they're out of options. So they're doing this deal. But when it comes to the next phases of disarming and just coming in relevant, they may not be able to do that. Now, we got assurances from President Trump that if they don't do that, then we will not just have the green light, but we'll have the expectation to go in full force and destroy them militarily. And that might just be what will need to happen. But we're hoping that it's going to be the easy way that Hamas disarms. We'll have to see what happens afterwards. But now we're all focused on getting 20 hostages back home and everybody's excited about that. As far as the other Arab world, look, the biggest secret is that we really have no issue with them. We actually have peace with them. And sometimes in the past, we didn't really officially call it peace. We saw like it was peace under the table. Now it's official peace. I think everybody expects the Abraham's Accords to be expanded. That is the ultimate expression of the idea of peace through strength. Because, you know, in 1895, Theodore Herzl, the vision of Zionism, the father of Israel, had a revolutionary idea which is let's make Jews great again. Rather than be under the European persecution for 2000 years, let's re establish the Jewish state and make Jews great again. And he believed that because of our strength, Europe and other countries would want to do business with us because he says, once Jews are free and great, they will advance humanity in ways nobody can imagine. That is exactly what is happening here. The Arabs recognize that. The Arabs says, look, all these advances in science, technologies, we want to be partners with Israel. So all those other Arab countries that President Trump so craftily put together are going to be our friends. And everybody expect that. They have this little thing with, you know, the street, the incitement from the Western media that also penetrates the Arab world, Al Jazeera and others. But they need to deal with that and we need to deal with the reality on the ground, not just from Hamas, but also from the Palestinian Authority. We still have, this is not, you know, we're far away from, you know, we're going to have peace with the outer Arab world, but we're far away from having some sort of a peace with the Palestinians. Nobody is expecting that to happen, not in the west bank and not in Gaza. Well, it must be nice not to be woken by those sirens going off all the time. Gaul Kalev, thank you so much for your time.

Welcome back, everybody, to American Sunrise. All right, coming up, Benjamin Netanyahu. How is his political future going to be now that phase one seems to be complete? We'll let you know on Monday once the hostages are released. We're going to discuss that and a whole lot more. 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 America. President Trump is headed to Walter Reed National Military Medical center later this morning for what the White House is calling a routine annual exam. It's the 79 year old's second physical this year. I'm in great shape, but I'll let you know. But no, I have no difficulty thus far. Is there wood around here? Knockoff? No difficulty. Physically I feel very good. Mentally, I feel very good. Mr. Trump will also address military personnel during his visit to Walter to read today. Following the medical checkup, both the president and the first lady have separate announcements scheduled at the White House. We're working our sources right now to try to get a heads up about what those announcements will entail. The moment we know, you'll know. The commander in chief's physical comes as he says he is making plans to travel to the Middle east as soon as Sunday. 47 likely will be on the ground in Israel by the time the hostages are released by the Palestinian terror group Hamas. Hamas either Monday or Tuesday. In the meantime, the ceasefire should be in effect at this very moment. Just this morning, Israel's cabinet approved the Trump brokered plan. New reports this morning say that according to the agreement, the ceasefire should begin immediately now that it's approved by the highest levels of Israel's government. The first step in the first phase of the deal will be for Hamas to hand over the remaining Israeli hostages who were taken on October 7th two years ago. About 20 of the 47 people being held are believed to still be alive. In all, Hamas kidnapped 251 men, women and children on that fateful day. New York Attorney General Letitia James is on the wrong side of the law this morning after being indicted on mortgage fraud charges. A grand jury found there's enough evidence for prosecutors to pursue two felony charges against James. One one is for making false statements to a financial institution and one is for bank fraud. She's expected in federal court In Norfolk, Virginia, where the case is being brought on October 24, James is accusing President Trump of weaponizing the justice system against her. Her lawyer says, and I'm quoting here, we are deeply concerned that this case is driven by President Trump's desire for revenge. You probably remember James won a lawsuit against the president claiming to that he falsely stated the values of his real estate holdings in order to gain better terms on things like insurance. The president was ordered to pay $355 million in penalties. That's a quick check of your headlines. We'll, of course, have more headlines coming your way shortly. But now let's get a quick check of your national forecast. Meteorologist Tracy Anthony joining us. Tracy, so it's up and down here. I don't know about the rest of the country, but here in Denver, it's up and down. The other day I was like, okay, fall is here. Get ready for snow. And then it was 80 degrees the very next day. I don't know. I don't know to put whether to put away my sweaters or pull out the wool coat. I don't know what to do here. Tracy, you know what? I think a lot of the country is with you there. I mean, it's, this is fall. It's that transition season. So we get these air masses that, you know, we're kind of fighting over territory. And that's exactly what we're going to be dealing with here over the weekend. This weekend, you know, the Northeast starting off the morning with frost and freeze advisories. And then the sunshine's gonna get out and they're gonna have seasonable temperatures by the afternoon. But another cold front swings through. So we are battling some rain showers across the central parts of the country. The four corners, you're gonna have a good amount of moisture. Flooding going to be a big concern. And then we're also going to be tracking a low up the coast. So I'll have more details on that coastal low here next hour. But we're also bracing for snow in the Northwest. So, you know, Terrence, this time of year, you're exactly right. We've got a lot going on and it changes at the flip of a switch. All right, Tracy, thanks so much. We'll talk to you next hour. Up next, phase one of the Israel Hamas peace deal is underway. So how complicated could phase two get and when could we see further results? What was that? First, though, a quick look at this day in history. It was on this date in 1854 that the U.S. naval Academy was founded in Annapolis Maryland. The academy stated goal was to improve the then unsatisfactory methods of instructing midshipmen. It took the work of historian, educator, and secretary of the War of the Navy. Excuse me, George Bancroft. To make the Academy a reality. The move helped the US Navy become one of the most awesome fighting forces the world has ever seen.

It's Miami, Florida. I know Gina's gonna talk about the monsoons and all the rain. I'll listen to her later about that. But I'd like to see some sun, so if we could work on that. Oh, I guess I'm asking God to put the sun out. That's probably not very nice of me. Welcome back, everybody, to American Sunrise. All right, so we know that Israel and Hamas have agreed to phase one of the peace deal, and the hostages are getting home in a couple of days. But the big question is, what can we expect next? President Trump was actually asked about that. Have a look. The first thing we're doing is getting our hostages back, okay? And that's what people wanted more than anything else. They wanted these hostages back that have lived in hell like nobody has ever even dreamt possible. And after that, we'll see. But they've agreed to things, and I think it's going to move along pretty well. But what is phase two? When does. I'm going to talk about that because you sort of know what phase two is. But we will. There will be disarming, there will be pullbacks, There will be a lot of things that are happening. You know, I gave you a whole List of 22 different things that will have will take place. And I think it will take place. And I think you're going to end up with peace in the Middle East. All right. Well, joining us now with more is the director of policy for the U.S. israel Education Association. That would be E.J. kimball. E.J. great to have you with us. So I guess we should get through phase one first, obviously, is a truly remarkable achievement. But also, let's talk about phase two. I mean, the plan calls for Hamas to lay down their weapons, lol, and have no say in the governance of Gaza, and then comes how to keep the peace after that. Oh, and there's this other part about them getting lots of Palestinian prisoners, I'm sorry, air quote, prisoners back, which is basically rearming Hamas for the future. Lots of potholes ahead here. E.J. good morning. Good morning. Yes, there's definitely a lot of landmines potholes, a lot of unknowns as to phase two. I think, as the president said, the most important thing right now is to get those hostages home. And while we should be very jubilant about that possibility, knowing Hamas and what I've already seen, I'm staying cautiously optimistic that this will go through. I believe it will. But Hamas, you cannot trust them. They are a genocidal jihadist terrorist organization. They lie, they cheat, and they will take every advantage they can possibly get. We've actually already seen them start this with the talk about not knowing where all of the deceased hostages are and their bluff has been called. So I think the president's right. Let's get these living hostages home to begin with and hopefully all of the deceased hostages. The next part is going to be extremely, extremely, extremely difficult to get through because you're right, Hamas is not going to willingly disarm. From what I've heard, Hamas is willing to give up rocket launchers, those things, but not their actual weapons, you know, guns and stuff. But also we're going to see that playing out in Gaza because you've got other tribes that have asserted their authority, like Abu Shabaab in the Rafah area, Khan Younis area. There have been others that Israel's been working with. And, you know, they're not giving up their arms. So there's still going to be problems there in international force coming in there to try to stabilize the situation. I'm not sure how long something like that would even last. President Trump said that he is going to head to the Middle east this weekend, arriving by the beginning of the week and said he would address the Knesset if Israel government, if The Israeli government would want him to do that. What would that speech mean to further resolve this conflict? Do you think that's important, or if it doesn't happen, do you think that matters? I think it's a really important moment. If the president goes and speaks in front of the Knesset, not just for ending this war and bringing back the hostages, but also about the U S. Israel relationship, you know, even on the Republican side, support for Israel, it's not gone down the way that it has on the Democratic side, but there's schisms there, there's potential pitfalls, and that's something I know the president is very concerned about. A lot of people, myself included, are concerned about, and the Israelis are concerned about. So this provides an opportunity for President Trump to speak in front of all Israelis, the entire Knesset, which encompasses the majority and the opposition. So that shows America that all of Israel supports what President Trump's doing, which should help to provide a resurgence of support for that U S. Israel relationship, which is vital not just to Israel, but to the United States as well. EJ I'd like to get your reaction to this Jewish News Syndicate headline which reads, netanyahu Gaza deal is a national and moral victory for Israel. The larger question, however, is does this deal secure political stability for Benjamin Netanyahu or will that political stability be tied to the success moving forward of this peace deal and how Hamas reacts and whether it does in fact, see its side through? Good question. Well, yeah, that's a great question. You know, the. I've seen some of the polls already. Obviously, Prime Minister Netanyahu has gotten a bump in potential elections. If they were held today, I think you'll see a temporary bump. A lot of the movement opposing him calling for an end to the war, getting the hostages are not necessarily his supporters. So, yes, they will temporarily support him, but when elections come about, it's going to be about those that don't want the Prime Minister to continue. It'll go back to the same issues that Israel has faced, I do think, ending the war in a way where Hamas is not able to rearm and that Israel's posture changes. For example, if Israel is treating Gaza the way that Israel is currently treating Lebanon with Hezbollah, where if they see a threat starting to emerge, they're taking it out. If that's the case, I think you will see a coalescing around the Prime Minister's acceptance of this deal because it would actually show that Israel has turned the page and that they're not going back to an October 6th mindset. But they're in this post October 7th mindset where any threats will be taken out before they can metastasize. Yeah. E.J. kimball, great analysis. We really loved having you on this morning.

I'm Dr. Gina. Thank you for joining us. It is time now for today's health news, sponsored by the wellness company under the Microscope today. Could there be risks associated with bottled water? I've been reading about this. Researchers in Canada found people consume between 39,000 to 52,000 microplastic particles per year. And people who drink bottled water regularly take that number up to 90,000 or more of those particles each each year. Researchers highlighted the concerns of these nanoplastics in these plastic water bottles. They cite the issues they can bring with them. Respiratory problems, reproductive issues. Also, there is a cancer risk. These particles can cause inflammation and that's why glass water bottles have become quite popular. But if you're clumsy like me, glass bottles are kind of scary to have. Anyway, I drop everything I do. Everybody who knows me knows there's a new administration in Washington, D.C. brought a lot of positive changes when it comes to fixing our broken health care system.

Boy, you listen to me, you will walk again. Who is that guy? John o'. Leary. He's kind of a legend around here. Why didn't you ask me out the night we met? Figured you wouldn't want me to. Welcome to the first projects of o' Leary and Bright's Construction. Yeah. Everybody grab a hard hat. Ladies first. No. Why would a man who you can't hold a hammer choose to be a contractor? I guess I like to just see houses for what they can be, not what they are. May have an idea for a way that we could work together. Public speaking. I hope you got better at it. I know what it feels like to think you've probably thrown your life away. To move through the adversities of life, we must have a reason to thrive that is bigger than all the challenges that we face. I'm not playing around. I'm literally getting chills watching that. Let's bring the film's director, Sean McNamara, into the show here. Wow, Sean, it's an amazing story. I understand doctors gave John, like, this 1% chance of survival. Tell us about bringing his story to the big screen. We are honored to have you on this morning. Thanks for being here. Oh, thank you. I'm honored to be on. I read the script, and I laughed, I cried, I got mad, and it was funny. I met John o' Leary in Burbank, California, where I was raised. And we both, like, broke into tears at some point, having a coffee of just the life that he went through and me wanting to bring his story to life. But it's an amazing story. My favorite part of it was when he's being wheeled down the corridor to surgery, his mom just grabs his hand, and she goes, you know, John, do you want to die? And he goes, no, I don't want to die. I want to live. And she goes, will you take God's hand? And we're going to fight for you every day. And it was just the people around him. I mean, the story's about John o', Leary, but the inspirational part is all the people who joined in to kind of help him recover. And then not just recover, just excel. And I just love inspirational movies like that. Yeah. Wow. I have to tell you, Sean, our. Our producer, Kimber Lee is a huge, huge fan of your work and told us about this, and I was excited to have you, but I didn't realize how much it would personally touch me. I have a son. I spent time in a burn unit with my son. He already has down syndrome. And then he had these burns, and it was horrible. We spent weeks there. It was insane and awful. So, as the mother of a burn victim, I can tell you that those burns and the scars and all of the skin that they put in new places, the grafting, all that is extremely painful for life. And things that are normal to the rest of us aren't normal to them. Sunshine and things like that. How has John received the film? I can't wait to take my son Sam to see it. I am so excited about this. What was it like working with John himself and seeing your movie through his eyes? Well, what's amazing is John is an extraordinary man. He's like my mentor now, is just a human. Nothing to do with just filmmaking. And he was there every single day on the set. And since he's a motivational speaker, he motivated us all. He would just. Just cheer everybody up every morning. We were shooting in St. Louis. We were, like, at the university, and he was getting the troops, all the. The crowd, you know, cheering and everything. He let us shoot at his house, where he grew up, where the fire actually happened. So that was amazing. And I got to meet his parents, and they were just. They're a big Irish Catholic family, and they just open their hearts, open their homes, and let us film there. So he's an extraordinary human being. Great thing, just wonderful. Tell us more about. I guess it's in theaters nationwide, but what do people need to know about the movie? Maybe bring a Kleenex or two. Well, that's the idea. Yes. It opens today nationwide, and it's. Look, I like to make inspirational movies. I made Soul Surfer. I made Reagan last year. It's about going in. And I used to grow up on reading those Chicken Soup for the Soul books. And this is kind of like what that is. No matter how tough our lives are, when you see what happens to John o', Leary, you go, look, I can get out of bed. I can fight it. I can make something happen. And that's what he does every day. And it's what we all have to do every day. But it's great to have an allegory to look at, to see somebody who was hurt much more breakthrough and excel at life. By the way, I love Soul Surfer and Reagan. My goodness, are you kidding me? Oh, my gosh. Yeah. You're not playing, Sean. We can't wait to see it. It's very important, I want to say, to our audience, to go see it when it opens. It gives the movie a lot more credibility, lets it open in more places. So do your part, and let's all go see it this weekend. Sean McNamara, thank you. God bless you. God bless your work and give everybody involved with the movie our love. Thank you so much. Thank you. God bless you, too. Okay, thanks, Sean. All right, coming up, the Swifties are in revolt. How are some fans receiving Taylor Swift's latest album? Let's say Taylor might need to shake it off. Oh, my gosh. I just made a David Brody joke. The reviews are next. Meanwhile, we managed to get that video of David Brody falling. We want to thank his family for this. This is when he was getting on Air Force One. I'm sure to do one of his very many interviews with Donald Trump that he tells us about. But there he is, David Brody. Oh, and there he is on his bike going to interview Donald Trump, but he fell. Yeah. Anyway, happy Friday to you, David Brody. Thanks to his family for giving us those videos right back.

Well, it'll be the Swifties. Taylor Swift dropped her new album which is called the Life of a Showgirl. It's now a number one hit, but some of her own fans just aren't happy with it. They're calling the lyrics too traditional, too white and wait for it too maga. That's coming from Swifties. The media is gushing over the album though. Rolling Stone gave it a five stars. Now the left is eating its own though, because apparently singing about love and marriage isn't woke enough anymore. When even Taylor Swift is too conservative for her own fans. You know, that wokeness has gone way off the deep end. End. Let's bring in David and Dr. Gina to talk a bit more about that one. David, I think you are the resident swifty or you're probably the closest to a Swifty on this panel. So we'll give you first shot at this. Oh, say it ain't. Well, that would be, that, that would be the insult of all insults. Thank you. My bad. You know more Swift, you know more Taylor Swift songs then I think. Dr. G. Normie. Definitely me. Because for sure when Shake it Off. When you guys said shake it off, I was like, oh yeah, okay. I know of that song and that's Taylor Swift. They will get my prompter. I don't know that. I mean, I know this. Okay, see, so to my point then we have no idea about Taylor Swift. Dr. Don't care. Yeah, I've got a few songs I could name for sure. Okay, but. And I'm going to now delete my Spotify searches in case any of you, you know, you never know. If you guys. Oh, your family sent that list to us. We're playing that at the end of this commercial. Great. Just great. You're welcome. Gosh, they're on it. Surprise Friday here on American Sunrise. Oh, my goodness. I don't know what to say about this. This Justin, she's liberal. So the whole idea that any of these I don't know, lyrics would be maga infused. Yeah, okay, just calm down. I do not understand the Taylor Swift thing. I don't understand. I don't. She doesn't. She looks as ordinary, and I don't mean this in an ugly way, but there's just nothing spectacular. Her music is ordinary. I don't know. Whenever I've listened to her. My husband and I are going to see Donny Iris this weekend. And you know what? Our chat is full of people who know what it is. And they are the ones who've gotten me back into kind of 80s music, which, you guys know was always like, my, no, I was not gonna do it. I like country, only country. And now I'm back into 80s music. And I can tell you, like, I think people like her, they're for a certain thrill of the moment when you're like 12, but then I think as you're an adult, you kind of move into, like, remembering what matters about music, like quality. I got a record player and I've been listening to record player music. I don't care about Taylor Swift at all. I thought you were gonna say Donny Osmond instead of Donny Iris. Donny Iris Alaia. He does a lot more than that, but Donnie Iris too. Yeah. Been following around the country like a groupie. I don't know what has happened to me, you guys. This audience did this to me. It was this audience. Yes. You were living your best life, Dr. Gina. I'm not mad at you. You keep on living your best life. She says something. I got an attic girl from him. Yeah, absolutely.

Time now for a moment of faith. It's brought to us by Lee Greenwood and the God Bless the USA Bible. Alright, so in focus today, the feast of Tabernacles and the historical meaning behind it. Joining us now with biblical insight is one of our favorite guests, Jim Mosley. He's got a lot of books, by the way. He's smart. He's the author of the Duke of D.C. he's also author of the appropriately titled Discovering Jesus Disciples. Oh, and did we bury the lead? He also co wrote a new book with our own Dr. G called the Days of Creation by Teaching Children How God Made the World. You've got to check it out on Amazon. I highly recommend it. All of that said, we here just call him the Bible history guy and that's who he is. Actually, we actually call him Jim. Hey, Jim. So tell us more about the Feast of Tabernacles. Good morning to you. Good morning. Well, it's a joyful feast. It just is finishing up right now in real time and is one of the happiest festivals in the Bible. It's when families build little outdoor shelters. You may have done that growing up to remember how God cared for Israel during the wilderness years. And so they eat and they sleep in those booths rejoicing that God tabernacled or dwelt with his people. Well, Jesus began his ministry during Sukkot in John chapter one. It's around mid October of AD 29, John the Baptist saw Jesus coming and said, behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Well, that was during the Feast of Tabernacles. Now the next day, two of John's disciples, Andrew and John, followed Jesus and they asked him, rabbi, where are you staying? Well, that wasn't just small talk because then everyone during Sukkah was camping out somewhere. So they were literally asking Jesus, hey, where's your booth? It was the ninth day of the feast. Now John begins his gospel saying the word became flesh and dwelt among us. And in Greek that dwelt means tabernacle. And there was Jesus, God in human flesh dwelling among them. And the next day he called Philip and Nathaniel the last great Day of the feast. And Nathaniel said, rabbi, you're the Son of God, King of Israel. And Jesus said, you're going to see heaven opened. You're going to see the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man. That was a picture of Jacob's ladder. Jesus himself is the bridge between heaven and earth. So after the feast ended, Jesus and his disciples walked north to Cana, to the Galilee, in Galilee for the wedding. And he turned water into wine. His first miracle. So the abundance of that miracle echoed the joy of Sukkot when Israel celebrated the harvest and God's overwhelming provision. The feast of Tabernacles is about God's presence and joy Tells says that God has come to dwell with us again. So we see Jesus by the Jordan, as John says, we behold his glory. That's the message of Sukkot today, Emmanuel. God dwelling with us then, now forever. Jim, that was fantastic. And you know what it made me think of? This idea that Judaism and Christianity are linked. They'll be linked forever. This just in. Jesus was Jewish, so there's that. Oh, by the way, and there's so much more. So can you kind of maybe give us 30 seconds about that link between Judaism and Christianity? Because, you know, we hear so much about Judeo Christian principles that is said for a reason. Sorry, Candace Owens. Sorry, other people, but Judeo Christian principles mean something based on the Old and New Testament. Well, yeah, because it's continuous promise of the Messiah. It's a golden thread of promise from Eden all the way to Jesus. And Paul makes it very clear in Romans chapter 11 where he tells us that the. The family of faith is a root that is Jewish and branches that are gentile that have been grafted in. But remember, nobody gets into heaven just because they belong to a club. They get there because they put their faith in Jesus. In Galatians, Paul said, those who are found in Christ are the true descendants of Abraham. And so we all need to be found in Christ. Everyone needs Christ. But what you're saying is exactly correct. It's one river. It's one tree leading all the way to the river of life in the new New Jerusalem, in the new heaven and the new Earth. Oh, that's just beautifully put. I couldn't put it better myself. Thank you, Jim. Jim Mosley, the Bible history guy. Now we know why they call you that. No, I. We knew. We knew. Thank you, Jim. Thank you. You too. We are back with the second hour of American Sunrise and Dos Minutos. Stick around, run a business and not thinking about podcasting, Think again.

Coming up on the second hour of American Sunrise, a major diplomatic victory for President Trump is Hamas agreeing to the first phase of the president's peace plan in the region? The president plans to leave this weekend to visit the Middle east as the hostages are set to be released as well. We're going to have the latest from the White House plus still shut down. Democrats continue to keep the government closed, but pressure is mounting as the deadline to pay military service members quickly approach. And justice karma or both. An amazing turn of events for New York Attorney General Letitia James, indicted by a federal grand jury on bank fraud charges. The same prosecutor who went after President Trump now facing serious legal trouble of her own. Second hour of American Sunrise, starting on a Friday right now. Good morning, America. Welcome to American Sunrise. Whether it's culture, we have breaking news to share with you. 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. The American dream is still alive. I'm David Brody. I'm terrence. And I'm Dr. Gina Foreign. Welcome back, everybody. The second hour of American Sunrise on a Friday TGIF, all caps. I'm David Brody coming to you from D.C. let's bring in Dr. G in West Palm T. Bates in our Denver newsroom. Good morning, guys. So, you know, I was thinking about this Israel, Hamas phase one situation. And we really got to this point. There are a lot of reasons why we got here. But what I love Gina, about what Trump, Trump did. And when I say Trump, we're talking also about Jared Kushner and Steve Woodkoff and all these guys and David Friedman The US Ambassador to Israel back in Trump won with the Abraham Accords. What they did was remarkable because, you know, okay, so like, the whole world hates Israel. Okay, Right, I got it. The UN There are a bunch of bozos over there. But what Kushner and these guys did was remarkable because they said, hey, you know what? Forget the world. We need Turkey, we need Qatar, we need Saudi Arabia, we need Egypt, we need some of these key players. So you can hate on Israel all you want, but if we get buy in from four or five key countries in the Middle east, that's game, set, match. And they're doing it. And it's amazing. Really is amazing. I mean, it's the quintessential, as you said earlier in the show, peace through strength. And this is proof once and for all that that that works. And I hope that presidents for generations, forever will remember that this is what works. And also, I think you have to go back to the historic fact that unless America is strong, no place in the world is safe. And the rest of the world really needs to catch on to that basic historic truth. And Americans, starting with Americans, need to start teaching in schools again that if you really are a humanitarian, if you really do care about world peace, the thing you need to know the most is that America needs a strong president, a strong military, and a strong sense of patriotism. T. Yeah, President Trump definitely has shown that peace through strength does work. But excuse me for being a pessimist, and this has nothing to do with President Trump. It has everything to do with Hamas. While I am cautiously optimistic that Hamas will follow through with releasing the hostages until I see it, until I see them cross the border, get in a van and be whisked away back home to Israel, I'm going to hold my applause. I'm just so cautiously optimistic, David, because let's just be honest, right now, those hostages are the only leverage Hamas has. And I'm just not so sure they're going to that easily give up their leverage after that. I think it really is game, set, match. That's just my opinion. Go ahead. Dr. Jeannie, you were going to say, I mean, if they're releasing the hostages first, then I guess they still have the bodies of the dead hostages that those families want home as well. That's some degree of leverage. And I hate to say it, but they have their horrible activities that they tend to engage in as leverage as well. So I'm hoping. I just don't think President Trump would be out there talking about this like he is unless he Were particularly confident. David, I'm curious, your take? Well, let me just say this. Hamas is playing the long game here, okay? And the game is this. We give back the hostages. But guess what we're getting back. We're getting all these comrades in arms, right? The horrible people in the Israeli jails. So they're coming back into the fold. So it's kind of like, okay, we'll put them in the minor leagues and we'll get them to the major leagues here in about three, five years, whatever it is, and we'll refuel and rearm. Remember, they're supposed to lay down their arms. Okay, we'll see if that even happens. But they're also getting free passage out of Hamas, or, excuse me, out of Hamas out of Gaza. So they're gonna rearm. I mean, this is just temporary. I mean, unless you can get the buy in from the Arab nations all the way through in terms of the governance of Gaza. We'll see. But I tell you what, all they're doing is biding their time. That's all they're doing here, okay? All fair points, guys. We're gonna be talking about this not just throughout the rest of this show. We'll be talking about this, this for months, maybe even years to come. In the meantime, President Trump headed over to Walter Reed National Military Medical center later this morning for what the White House is calling a routine annual exam. It's the 79 year old second physical of this year. I'm in great shape, but I'll let you know. But I know I have no difficulty thus far. Is there wood around here? Knockoff? No difficulty. Finish. Physically, I feel very good. Mentally, I feel very good. Mr. Trump will also address military personnel during his visit to Walter Reed today. Following the medical checkup, both the President and the first lady have separate announcements scheduled at the White House. We're working our sources right now to try to get a heads up about what those announcements might entail. The commander in Chief's physical comes as he says he is making plans to to travel to the Middle east to sign off on the peace deal between Israel and Hamas. 47 could make that trip as soon as this weekend, potentially even as soon as Sunday, in advance of the release of the hostages held by the Palestinian terror group Monday or Tuesday. Meantime, the ceasefire should be in effect as we speak. Just this morning, Israel's cabinet approved the Trump brokered plan. New reports this morning say that according to the agreement, the ceasefire should begin immediately now that it's approved at the highest levels of the Israeli government. The first step in the first phase of the deal will be for Hamas to hand over the remaining Israeli hostages who were taken on October 7, two years ago. About 20 of the 47 people being held are believed to still be alive. In all, Hamas kidnapped 251 men, women and children. On that feed. New York Attorney General Letitia James is on the wrong side of the law this morning after being indicted on mortgage fraud charges. A grand jury found there is enough evidence for prosecutors to pursue two felony charges against James, one for making false statements to a financial institution, the second for bank fraud. She's expected in federal court in Norfolk, Virginia, where the case is being brought on October 20th, 24th. James is accusing President Trump of weaponizing the justice system against her. Her lawyer says, and I'm quoting here, we are deeply concerned that this case is driven by President Trump's desire for revenge. You may remember James won a lawsuit against the president claiming that he falsely stated the values of his real estate holdings in order to gain better rates on things like insurance. The president was ordered to pay $355 million in penalties. That's a quick check of your headlines. Now let's get a quick check of your forecast with meteorologist Tracy Anthony. Tracy, good morning. Hey, good morning. You know, want to talk about the big stories as we head into the weekend? We're going to be tracking a coastal low across the East Coast. And as this low kind of scoots up the coast, it's going to bring heavy rain for areas right along the coast, kind of right along that i95 corridor with a sharp cutoff inland. It's also going to have strong gusty winds, high surf and coastal flooding possible. Now this system is expected to remain non tropical but still going to have big impacts. Now we're also tracking a good amount of moisture out across the Southwest, very abnormal for this time of year. We're talking 300% of the normal moisture available in the environment. And that's going to lead to flash flooding very quickly in this drought stricken area. So we're talking rainfall rates 1 to 2 inches per hour. That's almost tropical rainfall rates for the desert Southwest. So, Terrence, we have some big, major weather stories this weekend. All right, Tracy, thank you so much for the report and a great weekend to you. Tracy, we'll talk to you next week. You as well. Thank you, ma'. Am. All right. Let's get you over to David Brody. David, in advance of whatever you're going to do, thank you as well. Well, thank you. T Bates, we're so nice on the show. All right, let's get more on the Israel Hamas situation from the White House. Let's go straight there. Enough footing around. That's an old word. We've got Brian Glenn at the White House. Brian, good to see you this morning. What do you know? What's going down? When's President Trump leaving? I've got lots of questions. No, I don't really have any questions. I just want to talk more. What's up? Yeah. Hey, what's going on? Good morning. I don't, unfortunately, have all the answers to your questions. We'll start with when will President Trump make his way over there? As of a few minutes ago, I could not get a confirmation on what that day would be. Speculation is on Sunday, possibly in Monday morning, but we have not got clarification on that. But what we can clarify clarify is the first stage of this is complete. Witkoff announcing that the first phase of Israeli troop withdrawal is complete. So you've got thousands of people going back to what they would hope would be their home would still be standing. I was just reading an article a few minutes ago about some of the Palestinians going back and being surprised that their home was still standing. But you're going to see that ceasefire there. You can basically see some Israeli troops in an area to secure, to make sure there is no Hamas, I guess people, some extremities still out in that area to secure the return of everyone back to their homes. But it's underway. And so it's one of those things where we saw the Nobel Peace Prize earlier was announced and everybody was completely shocked, as was I. But we need to be reminded that, that President Trump is doing this, and he did this because he wants to see this war end. It was not to get a Nobel Peace Prize, even though I think he deserves it, but he genuinely wants to end this conflict. David, and you and I have been talking about this for eight months now. Peace in this region of the world is a necessity to all of us, and we're so very thankful that that's happening right now. But we'll find out how these next phases unfold here in the next coming days. Hey, Brian, to your point. Yeah. He may not be getting. And when I say he, President Trump may not be getting the recognition from the Nobel Committee, but he's definitely getting recognition from the other side of the aisle. Washington Post columnist David Ignatius on MSNBC yesterday basically praising the president for this Israel Hamas peace deal. The deal that President Trump is announcing played a key part in negotiating is a significant change. This war was blocked for two years. President Biden, who preceded him, was unable to find a way to stop it. President Trump found that, found that way by being tough on both sides. And you'll take a victory lap for sure over the next few days, but it's deserved. There's no way that I can see that this would have been done without Trump's pressure in the final hours. Brian, I asked a similar question of another one of our guests earlier. While the deal itself is seen wide and far as a victory, is it still going to be a victory if Hamas reneges? And that question is somewhat of a loaded question for me just because I don't trust Hamas. And I think anybody with any common sense doesn't necessarily trust Hamas. Yeah, I don't think any of us trust Hamas, and that's a great way to put it. But, you know, it's at least something that. And I think that's one of the reasons why the Israeli forces is going to remain on guard to make sure that some of these lone wolves don't, you know, erupt. Now, I did see Mike Huckleby say earlier that no U.S. troops would be on the ground there. They will provide backup in a certain extent, but now not physically on the ground, which I think is a good thing because you and I both know all it would take would be one crazy person to injure or, God forbid, kill a US Soldier. And then that erupts into a completely different conversation. But I like to see that he is getting praise for this. And across all legacy media, I watched another montage this morning of just various shows praising President Trump for doing this. So. So it's a good thing that it's happened. I'm glad the media is recognizing. But once again, I think that President Trump come this time next year will get that peace Nobel Peace Prize because The deadline was January 31st. Although they said they made the decision on Monday, they could have very well done that. I understand that, but I think he's a shoo in definitely for this time next year. Yeah, I'm glad you pointed out January 31st. That's important to understand. So, Brian, great to have have you here. Have a great weekend. We appreciate you as always. Thanks. Yes, sir. Thank you. All right, coming up, a day of truth, action and resolve. A look at the upcoming boot camp for patriots. We're going to show you how you can get involved. That is next on American Sunrise.

So this Saturday, we're getting ready for very something very special. It's a max. Boot Camp for Patriots is a day of truth, action and resolve. Here's a quick preview. Take a look. This Saturday, from 2 to 5pm Eastern, Real America's Voice brings you an exclusive special event. AMAC presents Boot Camp for Patriots. Give me liberty or give me death. You're invited to a pivotal gathering of leaders, experts and patriots coming together at a time when America stands at a crossroads. But be out there fighting in that realm. Education and indoctrination, election, integrity, and more of the urgent issues that matter most to your family, your community and your country. More than a conference, it's a call to action. Whether you're a citizen, a community leader or a grassroots activist, your voice is needed. Now, join us as we unite around faith, family and freedom and take the fight for America's future to the next level. Don't miss it. AMAC presents Boot Camp for Patriots this Saturday from 2 to 5pm Eastern only on Real America's Voice. And I'm going to be joined, by the way, by Dr. G, Ben Berkwam, John Solomon, so many other great featured speakers. It really is more than a conference. It's a rallying call for grassroots engagement and civic action nationwide for sure. So joining me now on what we can expect is chief digital officer for any Mac, Charles Stuckland. Charles, good morning. Tell us more about this great event because I tell you what people need to get involved and get involved quick to see Save Our Country. Absolutely, David. And again, thank you and Gina for coming to our event. You know, we had some great panels going on. It's going to be airing this Saturday. So at amac, our boot camp for Patriots are really to energize, educate, you know, the AMAC generation to get involved as constituents, you know, especially in Virginia. This one's in Virginia, but we focus on both federal issues and local ones. So at this particular boot camp for Patriots, we're covering immigration. Immigration at the breaking point, the woke mind virus in women's sports. Protecting the ballot box. We have a specific panel for Virginians on election integrity. We have some great speakers with that. Jason Sneed, Lynn Taylor, Phil Klein, and our own Andy Mangione. And then we close out with an imac action panel, how you can get involved in our grassroots, how you can participate in our calls to action. So we're really trying to roll these out in a larger way, focus individually, state by state, and, you know, tune in this Saturday at 2pm to get a sense of where we're at. And you know, what AMAC is interested in, what our members are interested in, what we can do moving forward, especially in Virginia. Yeah, And I love the fact that you give tangible action points. You know, here's what you do. Because a lot of people are like, okay, I really am frustrated, but I don't know where to start or what to do. And that's where you guys come in. Tell. Tell us more about that. Yeah. So AMAC Action is our advocacy arm of amac, obviously. And we pride ourselves on being, I guess what we could call a quick reaction force. When there's a piece of legislation, you know, in D.C. or even locally, we have millions of AMEC members. So what we do is we rally our members to engage in a call to action that allows them to make phone calls, send emails, get in touch with their representatives to let them know their feedback on any particular issue. We do hundreds of them a year. We get thousands, tens of thousands, often responses to these CTAs. And it really lets our, you know, legislators know in Washington, hey, AMAC is a large force. We care. We are your constituents. You should listen to us. And it's really widely known when we go to dc, we do have some of our AMAC action staff in D.C. we meet with congressional members. They take us seriously. You know, every member that joins AMAC grows that voice. And by becoming an AMAC member, you're growing your own voice in Washington. So we Try to really reiterate that to our members and we consistently update them, get them involved and then do events like this. You know, in Virginia in particular, there's many issues, immigration effects, you know, Virginians, election integrity as well. There's some significant actions going on there. So yeah, that, that's what we like to do. We like to be involved. We lead with what our members tell us that they're concerned about out, you know, and that's, that's what's most important to us here at AMAC. Yeah, big time. Credibility. I got five, 10 seconds at the most. Where do people go to get more information about AMAC specifically? They can go to AMAC us. They can get their news at AMAC us. Sign up for our newsletter, subscribe, join and become a member. And if they want to get involved Today, go to amecaction.org you can become an ambassador, a delegate. Get there now. Get involved in your state, get on our state calls, you know, take control and ownership of the future of America. All right, Charles Stuckling, great to have you.

Sounds like a hip hop recital right there. A live look at the White House here as a busy day is ahead for President Trump. He's of course going to be heading over to Walter Reed Hospital here later this morning. Then he and the first lady both have a couple of announcement planned for later on today. We'll of course have live coverage throughout the day here on Real America's Voice. In the meantime, getting ready for the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange. I can tell you that so far, the Dow Jones S P 500 and the NASDAQ stack all looking pretty good. You can see our board here. The only blemish right now is crude oil. It is down in the red. But we'll keep you updated throughout the day. Specifically, once the opening bell rings, we'll take you there to the New York Stock Exchange for that. In the meantime, let's get you over to David Brody. David, I saw you waving your head there, kind of swaying side to side. You like the little hip hop recital, too, huh? Oh, I like that music. Thank you, thank you. I'm liking. I'm coming in hot. I feel like Andy Minneo. Drop it like it's hot. Oh. Oh. Joining us now is Lecrae. Let's go. All right, now, maybe not. Never mind. T. Bates. Thank you. It's not Lecrae. It's actually Jake Novak. Wamp, wamp. Just kidding, Jake. Jake. Just kidding. It's our daily dose of dollars and common sense. And there he is. No tie. Friday. Don't dress up for our show. Trust me, it's, you know, it's fine. It's casual. We're just winging it anyhow. Jake. All right, so our national debt isn't getting any smaller, but apparently Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant's pointing to one ray of sunshine on that front. So what, did he, like, find $37 trillion in a drawer or something? And if he did, I'd like to be his best friend. Yeah, you know, that. That would be great. So I'm just like. We're announcing. We just. No, I'm just kidding. No, Scott Bessant. It sounds really technical, but it's actually not that hard to understand. Scott Bessant is trumpeting something called the deficit to GDP ratio, which very simply means gains. How much do you still owe this year compared to what you're bringing in? Okay, that's pretty easy to understand. And despite the fact that the economy has been growing really strongly and we had almost 4% growth in the second quarter, that's very robust. The deficit to gdp. The deficit to the economy ratio also shrank. So in other words, we're not losing as much money as we are compared to what's coming in so far this year. So he's very excited about that. That's how you can get. Get some of these deficits down. As far as cutting into the. The principal the big debt, that's another story and obviously a very alarming one. But everyone who's pointing to, for example, the big beautiful bill or other things like that and saying, oh, this just makes things worse. Look, the. We can grow in a way as an economy to reduce our deficit. We can't grow completely out of it, but we can grow to a point where it becomes less of a burden every day. And that's what Besson's talking about. And we should pay attention to, to that. No, Absolutely. All right. A truly green day on the markets for cannabis grower Tilray. Tell us about that. I don't know anything about this company, nor do I know anything about that stuff on the screen, by the way. Yeah, Tilray is a very volatile cannabis growing stock. When they first started legalizing marijuana in parts of this country, it had a big burst and then it was up and down. It's. It's very much like riding a roller coaster. Well, it was a strong day for Tilray. 22% gain on the stock alone in one day. Because it reported that over the summer months. I know what you did last summer, stoners. You bought a lot of extra pot. Look, I don't love this trend necessarily. We can have a cultural discussion about it, but just to let you know from the market point, and this is like, I like to make sure everyone gets this warning. Tilray is incredibly volatile. They had this huge day yesterday. Do not go and sell your house and put all your money into Tilray stock. You want to put a few hundred bucks, maybe a few thousand in, that's fine, go for it. But just understand this is a very volatile stock and you know, you can really lose your shirt on it. But it had a good day yesterday and apparently this summer was a good summer for pot buying. Well, you realize this is the corny dad portion of the show where I say so the stock was higher is what I like to say. You knew I was going to, but it's too easy. It's too easy. It's easy stuff. I'm literally turning into the corny dad in the suburbs. Hey, I got 30 seconds. The taxes and news from the Trump administration. Some information here. Once again, really helping the lower middle class and blue collar Americans. You got 27 seconds. What's going on? Yeah, the standard deduction for people who don't itemize their taxes has been upped to $16,000. This is a very big tax break for the lower ends of the taxpayers in this country as far as income is concerned. President Trump, the first first president to successfully have a trickle up tax cut. He did that in his first term. Doing it again. Very nice. You did it in 23 seconds. I was timing you. Jake Novak. Have a great weekend. Are the jets going to win this weekend? I know the answer. Never mind. Absolutely not. Absolutely great. We're going for Owen 17. Everybody. Let's get after it. All right. Thank you, sir. Appreciate it. Did Jake just do a dance there? Time for teammates in Denver. The opening bell. The New York Stock Exchange, sponsored by AmEx, 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 America. We're less than a minute away from the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange. You're going to hear the applause here in short order and then we'll wait for the bell to ring to give us an idea of where the markets are standing. See, look at this. That right on cue. There you have the applause. Ladies and gentlemen. Phoenix, it looks like is at the podium once the bell opens. Once the bell rings, excuse me. The markets will be open and we'll get an idea of where things stand at this moment. Pre market trading was looking pretty good for all of the major US indices. Hopefully it will stay that way once the markets are officially open. Well, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. The markets are now open on this final day of trading for the week. Week. And as you can see, the dow and S P500 are up. The NASDAQ is also up. Really the only blemish remains crude oil, which hopefully will be a good thing for our gas prices. We shall see. But in general, if you're investing, things are off to a pretty good start and hopefully they will end even better. All right, folks, let's talk a bit about gold because it's up around 40% this year. Now that's not speculation, it's reality. Reality. And if a portion of your savings isn't diversified into gold, well, you're really missing the boat. Here are the facts. Inflation is still way too high. The US Dollar is still too weak and the government debt is insurmountable. That's why central banks are flocking to gold these days. And they are the ones who are driving the prices up to record highs. It has surpassed $4,000. It's not too late to buy gold from the Birch Gold Group, though. You can also get in the door right now.

Just call 844-844, iheart and get radio work working for you. Welcome back to American Sunrise. I'm Terence Bates. As always, we appreciate you joining us. We also want to invite you to join the conversation on Getter Rumble YouTube. I've been in the YouTube chat all morning long. It's really boisterous. So, so jump on in. Let us know what you think about all of the things that we're talking about here on the show. It's time now to take the political pulse of America and taking the beat today. Well, it would be New York Attorney General Letitia James who led an investigation against President Trump. And she's now been indicted herself by a federal grand jury in Virginia on a bank fraud charge. The charges stem from a Justice Department investigation into Alleged mortgage fraud, including claims that James made false or misleading statements on loan applications and property records. The indictment comes after James led a civil case against President Trump and his organization, accusing them of fraudulent business practices. Yeah, you probably remember that. New York Governor Kathy Hochul weighing in now, calling the indictment against James a weaponization of the Justice Department. That's a direct quote. Latisha James alleged actions hit a breaking point and finally caught the attention of investigators. Fortunately for us, we are joined now by someone who knows all about hitting breaking points, and that would be my main man, David Zier. He, of course, is the host of Breaking Point right here on Real America's Voice. David, good morning to you. This whole idea of weaponization, okay, probably falling on deaf ears for many New York voters, particularly the Upper east side crowd who support Donald Trump. Yeah. Terrence, good morning. This is crazy. You know, The New York AG Letitia James mounted at last least 100 legal challenges against both Trump administrations. And added after Trump's second win that she was going to go after him. Right. And, like, never sleep until she gets him. And everything Letitia James has done is politically motivated. She has a history of targeting the church and conservative Christians in New York State. She went after a pastor who wanted to host the Reawaken tour from Clay Clark with Don Jr. And Eric Trump and Gen. Flynn and Mike Lindell calling it a racist event. And then she went after a guy who ran a church over $1,000 in campaign contributions, persecuting him along with the progressive left in New York State. You know, and what goes around comes around, Terence. Right, yeah, absolutely. And I think that's what a lot of people there in New York are saying. Okay, well, you went after President Trump so hard. So now, you know, what do they say? You shouldn't throw rocks at glass houses. Seems like it's the case of that. Well, she might have done this twice in 2020 with the home purchase on a secondary residence, wasn't allowed to use it for rental income, skirting about $19,000 in interest payments, claiming rental investment income on our Schedule e with the IRS, which conflicted. And then in 2023, she might have done it again, saying she had a principal residence purchase in Norfolk, Virginia, to help her niece out. And you can't be the attorney General in New York State if your primary residence is in Virginia. Yeah. And I think it's interesting to point out the case against Donald Trump was a civil case. This is a criminal case. Felony charges that Letitia James is is facing here. All right, let's Talk a bit about the New York mayoral election. It's obviously coming up. Eric Adams out, Andrew Cuomo picking up in the polls, but there is still that guy, Zoran Mamdani. He is a factor, and he is, at this point, probably the front runner. Yeah, he's on a public bus the other day saying, take mass transit. The bus only averages 5 miles an hour on the way to work. It was one of those, like, you know, that was easy Hillary Clinton, you know, bloopers. But the city campaign finance board just gave Cuomo more money. Another $2 million in public matching funds as he's climbing in the polls against Zara and Mamdani. Sleep was still polling at 15%. Mayor Giuliani is 100% behind Curtis Sliwa. There's a lot of loyal New Yorkers who wanted Giuliani. So, you know, if Sliwa doesn't back out, I don't see Cuomo being able to mount the difference, even though his lead shrunk to 16% about against Mamdani. But, you know, is there really a big difference between Mandani and Cuomo, who passed all the bail reform laws that killed and maimed and injured so many New Yorkers and all those deaths in the nursing home? So I think people are bitter about this. It looks like Mamdani is going to get it at this point. 24 days to go, right? Yeah, it's coming up. Hey, David, quickly, 20 seconds. What do you have coming up on the show this weekend? I know you got some interesting guests. Yeah, I got almost my whole show dedicated to the funding sources for Antifa, both globally and stateside, making the connections, the NGOs involved and how the money trickles down to the paid agitators. And then I got Lieutenant Goober, gubernatorial candidate John Reed. Great State Commonwealth of Virginia in a close race for that seat. Next week, I'm hoping to have winsome Earl Sears on David Z. Always good to see you, my friend. Have a great weekend. Have a great show. Thank you, Terrence. Thank you. All right, let's go to the other David of the show. That would be David Brody. I'm just surrounded by David's this morning. I feel like Goliath, though. Ah, aren't you lucky you're surrounded by David. Okay, well, actually, I guess that's really not a good thing because he didn't. It didn't go too well for Goliath. I guess that's not a good thing. No, it's called a TKO in the first round with the first stone. Yeah. For sure. Okay. TVATES thanks. So the United States Marine Corps turns 250 this year. Rav is going to be celebrating this incredible milestone this weekend at America's Marine 250. It's a historic tribute honoring generations of courage and sacrifice. That and service. Take a look at this. Two and a half centuries of honor, courage and commitment. This Saturday, Real America's Voice presents America's Marine 250 Uncommon Valor, a 250th anniversary salute. From the founding Aton Tavern to today's Marines defending freedom worldwide witness a historic tribute to their service and sacrifice. Coverage begins at 5pm Eastern hosted by Steve Bannon, Benny Harmony, Brian Glenn and Jack Posobic join us for this once in a generation salute only on Real America's Voice. Okay, my adrenaline now pumping. The ceremony will feature also powerful historical tributes and appearances from top military leaders. You've got Secretary of War Pete Hegseth will be there among many others. Joining us now to talk about this is RAV congressional correspondent Betty Ray. Harmony, Benny, good morning and welcome to welcome by the way to the RAV team. Great to have you. Good morning, David. And I don't know about you, but doesn't that, that video just get you pumped up? Doesn't does. I'm ready to like literally on a Friday night at a high school game run through a banner. But of course at my age I'd probably trip and fall and it'd be a viral video for sure. Hey, so Benny Ray, historic celebration. What can more can you tell us about it? You're going to be part of the coverage, obviously. Big deal. No, David, I think it's going to be incredible. You know, we, we see this new renewed sense of pride for America in 2025. And Pete Hegseth specifically. I want, I want to draw attention though real quick. You know, for the past four years under the Biden regime, they did not pay attention to our military from the horrific withdrawal from Afghanistan, the awful things and the awful ways that they have treated our servicemen and women. And just to see the importance of our military to the Trump administration and Secretary of War Hegseth we'll also be seeing at this event tomorrow. We're going to see Secretary of the Navy John Phelan as well as the commandant of the Marine Corps who is Eric Smith. So I think it's going to be very powerful. I think we're going to hear amazing tributes from historians moments and hopefully they'll tell some stories and really make these men and women that are in the audience really realize how important and how indebted we are to them. Yeah, for sure. And Benny Ray, I tell you what, this comes at a historic time in our country. You know, of course we know about what the phase one of Israel and Hamas and that deal specifically. And that peace through strength mentality is just key. We talked about it at the top of the show. I mean, the truth of the matter is you would not have peace in this phase one at all if you didn't have the strength first. I mean, the Houthis were wiped out, quite a few of them in March with the Trump administration. Then you had the Iranian nuclear sites blown to smithereens in June. So that's really what it is in practice. You know, everybody talks about peace through strength, but you've got to have the military do its job and not just threaten it, but actually do it if it's called upon to do. And specifically the Marines, you know, they are the rapid response. They are the first ones on the ground. They are the ones that sleep in the dirt. They are our real infantry men and women. And so in a time where we are finally seeing peace in the Middle east and the Trump administration is really bringing that to America, it's just truly incredible that we get to celebrate this and highlight the incredible, incredible things that they've done. Yeah, there's no doubt about that. So I guess it'll be on. I guess I should know this, right? Tell us more about the coverage. It's gonna be what you Steve Ban and tell us. Tell us more. I'd love to know more about it and I probably should know more about it. Darn it. Go ahead, tell us more. We can blame that on Parker David. So it's gonna be great. It'll be. It'll be Brian and I and Jack Posobic on the ground. We'll be with Steve Bannon and as well. It's really going to be a surprise to all of us. I think. We don't really know exactly what is going to happen and what these tributes are going to look like. But as you can see there on your screen, I believe it's from 5 to 8pm tomorrow night. So just make sure you have real America's Voice on. We will be streaming it the entire time. We'll be talking to people. We'll be getting some great interviews with some of these top officials. So. So it's going to be phenomenal. And I guess just stay tuned to see, to see what we get 100%. And by the way, wouldn't be surprised, I Wouldn't be surprised if President Trump, who knows? The guy never sleeps. He's always working. If he maybe stopped by for a little impromptu, you know, rah rah to the Marines. Who knows if he'll do that? We'll see. We sure hope. All right, Benny Ray, Harmony, great to have you. And once again, welcome to the Rav family. Thank you so much, David. Happy Friday. Yeah, Happy Friday to you. And it is Puppy Friday, everybody. And Gina would want me to get that in there for sure. Coming up, what's the most patriotic way to enjoy a nice cup of tea? Oh, that's a good tease. You know what? I'm gonna stick around.

Let's spill some tea. Let's spill some Tea is fueled by Artillery Tea Company. It's the only America first veteran owned tea brand out there on the market. Their mission is to maximize flavor with whole leaf blends and chemical free tea bags. Bags. There's no junk here, just real tea. And the tactical advantage is that each bag brews not just once but twice. So go over to artillerytco.com and use the code LIBERTY for 20% off of your first order. That's artillerytco.com that's the website. This is premium tea that's mission driven and brewed for the brave. All right, let's get right into what's in the cup today. And that would be the co founder of Artillery Tea Company, Mike Brittany. Mike, welcome. Good to see you My friend. Morning, Terrence. So, look, last time we talked, one of your deals was that for people who bought your tea, you guys were also going to send them a guide on how to properly brew that tea, which leads me to my first question. And it's my understanding that some people don't necessarily experience the full flavor of whole leaf tea. Why is that? Is it the way they brew it? What's going on there? Yeah, there's a little bit of nuance with brewing the whole leaf tea. When you get stuff from the store, you can get away with doing the same temperature, the state, the same steeping time, especially because those bags are only good for one cup, really. But with whole leaves, depending on the type of tea we offer black tea, green tea, and herbals, depending on what kind of tea it is, it. It dictates a certain temperature and a certain steeping time. And we have these precision brewing cheat sheets. We're going to do that offer again today for. And those sheets lay out for the first cup. How long to brew each kind of tea and at what temperature and to get two tea bags or to get two cups. Excuse me, out of each tea bag. And so we're. We're trying to help folks maximize the flavor, maximize the amount of cups they're getting from each one. And before I learned this terence, I was brewing, like green tea, for example, at boiling temperatures, 212. And switching to the directions on the precision brewing cheat sheet completely changed the flavor for me. It made it a lot more. More natural, made a lot more smooth and way less bitter, really. So the amount of. Or I guess the heat of the water, how long you brew your tea can really have an impact on taste. Who knew? Well, I sure didn't. Yeah. For each different kind of tea, it's kind of oxidized differently. And so for higher temperature with. With green tea, you're extracting, like, different compounds from the green tea at the higher temperatures than you are at the black tea. Black tea, you're supposed to go203,212. But for green tea in particular, you're going to extract a lot more bitter compounds from it if you brew at a higher temperature or if you brew at the right temperature but brew too long. Right. All right, Mike, unfortunately, I'm not hearing you, but I heard you talking, so it might be on my end, but always good to see you, Mike. Mike Britton, of course, there from Artillery T. Always great insight on making sure that you get the best, best cup of tea when you buy their product. We're Going to take a quick break. When we come back, it is Puppy Friday.

It's so wonderful to be here. I love Puppy Friday and to get to see your sweet pup up, it means so much to us out here. But so we have the to the Rescue dog adoptable dog of the week. And this week is Marla. And she's such a sweet. She's nine months old, nine month old female. She weighs approximately 46 pounds. She's smart, fun, cuddly. She also loves squeaky toys, hikes and treats. Marla will come to you. Oh, yes. You know, if you'll adopt her today, she'll come to you fully vaccinated and fixed. And to the Rescue will pay for all the adoption fees and the travel fees no matter where in the country you are. Wow. So please, if you, if you want to adopt Marla, go to that QR code right there and we'll make sure that you can get sweet Marla home with you. She's only nine months old. And later, if we have time, I'm just going to tell you about when you adopt a new pup, although she's part potty trained, but how you potty train your dog. I've gotten so many emails this week asking me, Tommy, how do I do this at Potty Train? Yeah, yeah, no, that's such an important thing, you know, and it makes the pets so much more amenable to families. Right. Once they're all potty trained, Tommy, you know, I told you I just had. And we all go through this. You know, my producer wrote me last night, I got a bad diagnosis. Not on Colby, thank God, but on my pit bull Great Dane who's a rescue from Big Dog Ranch Rescue. And I was telling my producer and he said they burn so bright, but only for a short time. That's our executive producer, Dave Brown said that to me and it's so true. And I just went through this with my Frenchie. Now this is my Great Dane Pitbull. As I told you, insurance is a big thing because this, now they want to do chemo and radiation. I'm not doing that. That. But that can cost $10,000 plus. Tommy, tell us about it. Yes, it really can. And I want to make sure all of you really understand. The most common reason families take their pets to the vet is because they've swallowed something. Now cancer, it does happen and I'm so sorry for you in that diagnosis. But yes, they swallow a sock, a ball, a toy, and the average visit is $3,500 dollars. It's just, it's just too expensive. And that's why I created to the Rescue pet care. You know, we are the only mission focused pet insurance company in America. And I want to make sure that that single parent, single family, parents that cost isn't a problem. And it, and so, so we make sure and we, we help out single parents as part of our mission and also rescues and shelters all across the United States. We're the only pet insurance company that does that. So you want to make sure and protect your pet with to the rescue pet insurance. It's so important for you. And right there, I think at the bottom of the screen is another QR code for to the rescue pet care because we truly do care and we're there to help you too as well, Dr. Gina and that sweet. Thank you. Thank you. I can't get enough. I can't get enough rescue dogs. And I love your work, Tommy, and we appreciate you so much here at Real America's voice. Everybody get the QR code. Ensure your pet before they swallow something. Right. Or before they get some diagnosis and you're put in that horrible position. So, Tommy, thank you so much. God bless you and your work. Anything I can do to help. You know, I am always here. My whole heart is in on what you guys do. Thank you. And any questions anybody has, email me. I'll talk to you about how you potty train that pup, or at least train that pup. We'll help you out. And maybe next time on the show, I'll give a little more information on some training tips. I love that. Let's do it next Friday. It's a date. Tommy, have a great weekend. Thank you so much. Let's bring in David and Terrence to say goodbye. Colby's giving kisses and. Yeah. So. Aw. Kobe liked that segment. Kobe liked that segment. Yeah. I wonder what Colby got into this evening. He likes to eat an occasional iguana or fish that floats up in my yard in the morning, so I'm always a little nervous about when he's kissing me. But, you guys, you've got a great weekend in store. We got the big AMAC broadcast coming up this weekend, and I'm off to Pennsylvania to see Donnie Irish and do a couple book signings. I have Club 47 tonight if anybody's around in Florida. So. Yeah. Yeah. So you guys, everybody have a great weekend. Thanks for a great week, you guys. David, you're clumsy. Yeah. How do you get that in? Yes. Yes, I am. And I'll be clumsy over the weekend as well. Thank you, Gina. I appreciate that. It's wonderful. All right, you guys. Oh, my gosh. Stay tuned, because I'm going to be on with Steve Bannon. Top of the show there. So I'll see you guys just around the corner here. Go boldly now. Don't walk into doors. Ouch. Ouch. This is an I Heart podcast.
