Alrighty, folks, four o'. Clock. There's your closing bell for the day. Be closing bell. Markets are closed. Take a look. A little bit of rough day across the board again. 480 lower in the Dow Jones S P down 50, 50. Nasdaq big loser of the day down 269 points. That thing was 400 lower at one point during the day. A little bounce back. Gold down, still hovering 4,000 over 4,000. 4, 40, 70 to be exact. Right now, oil up a little bit. 87 cents. Got back up of that 60 level. We want that a little bit lower. And jumping over to crypto, we saw Bitcoin 92. There's 92 and a half yesterday. I'll tell you, last night into early this morning, probably around three in the morning having to be watching the crypto markets. Bitcoin hit 89. The Bitcoin. So it took another hit late last night. Recovered a little bit. Ethereum was a little bit better on the day. Up 4%, 8% in salon and some of the other cryptos doing, doing okay. Do we have. Folks, I can tell you this, we have a good friend of mine, Alex Jones is coming on. I just did his show for about an hour from 3 to 4, 4 o' clock now. Alex is going to come on to the top of the show. As soon as we get him, you'll let me know. Alex is ready. I will introduce him then. My first CEO of Infowars where he hosts the Alex Jones Show. Always happy to bring back my good friend, Mr. Alex Jones. And Alex, we had a very spirited discussion on your show just moments ago about what's going on with mtg, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Trump. And you know, the Epstein surrounding drama, it really is becoming a drama. I gave you my two cents. I'm bringing you on to have my audience enlightened with your. You've had some great takes on this. In fact, the boss, Rob Sig of the Real America's Voice, he owns it, he said, you know, I saw Alex Jones the other night, had some great takes on what's going on with mtg, with Trump. What is it in your assessment, Alex? Who's right? Who's wrong? What do we, where are we in MAGA world right now?

Well, the Democrats know that populist conservative Christian voters are good people. We're not like Democrats that will accept, you know, any evil from our party. So Trump's never been involved with Epstein. He's the guy that first dropped the dime on him. You know, 18 years ago. All these emails are exculpatory that, you know, Congress has been releasing, but they spin it all like he's done something wrong. And then Trump kind of mishandles it and says, look, the Epstein thing's a hoax, instead of saying, no, it's real, but me being involved is a hoax. And he since clarified that. So that's really good. So they know there's grand juries and criminal trials and lawsuits and all this. And like Trump said today in a press conference with the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, he said, no matter what I release, it's never enough. It's all over the place. It's in Congress, it's in federal courts. We got Democrat judges. When he told the DOJ to release the grand jury stuff five months ago, they blocked it. So he's telling the truth. He's frustrated. It is the new Russia, Russia, Russia. It is the new distraction. But the way he's responded to it, I know he's busy. He says, look, I'm trying to get 20 trillion investment. I'm, I'm trying to, you know, secure the border. I don't have time for this. I'm the guy that dropped a dime on him. That's all true, but his messaging has been weak on it. Now it's getting a little bit better. But this is something that really caught the public's attention. That MTG the last few months says, hey, I've looked at all this. Trump's not even in it. It's a bunch of Democrats. We need to go ahead and release the stuff that Congress was given by, by the way, Epstein's brother. And then Trump tried to block it. Now last week, he says, go ahead and release it. And by the way, criminally investigate Larry Summers, you know, the head finance secretary for Clinton and the rest of them. This only implicates them, which is exactly what he should have done from the start. But we now know what I was told 10, 11 months ago when Trump first got in by inside sources. The CIA came to Trump and they said, listen, Epstein worked for the State Department, the CIA, and foreign intelligence. And that's all the news today. Now you've got Speaker Johnson saying he wants the Senate to have a bill that blocks a bunch of names for, quote, national security. And so that's why Trump said, okay, fine, it's an old case. The DOJ won't do anything. We won't make it to focus because he thought it would be bad for the economy. Then they still turned around and blamed him for it. Now he says, okay, release it all. By the way, prosecute them. That should have been his position to begin with. So here he is, totally innocent, not involved in any of it, but now involving himself obliquely, you know, in the COVID up, you know, not directly. And so all the inside baseball I got has been proven proven right. And then MTG says, last few months, listen, I'm with the victims, Release it all. Mr. President, you're not even in there. Congress has had it for months and he says, you're a traitor. But then he now agrees with her. In the last few days it says, release it. So I mean, I, you know, look, I'm not saying MTG is perfect, nobody is. But she's been consistent. She's been a stalwart supporter from the beginning. I think this infighting is bad. Like a lot of insider Republicans that didn't like Doge making too big a cuts and things. Elon thought the tariffs were too intense, which a lot of people agree with. I think you agree with. I mean, overall I agree with him being having the power to do it, but I think some of it is, you know, too intense. And, and so he's kicked Elon out. That really hurt him. Now he wants Elon back. So Trump is not God. We are big supporters, but we're not Democrat cult members where we don't question things when we think something's wrong. We might be wrong too, but we're going to speak out about it. So you have these white pillars that say, you said on sh. I totally agree with you. Don't ever question Trump. He's God. You're a traitor. If you do, then you have the black pillars that say, oh, he's a traitor, we're all screwed. No, he's the best shot we've got to save in this country in the world right now. So when I criticize Trump, it is from a place of love and he's our lifeboat here trying to get him back on track. So in the MAGA civil war, stop attacking Massie, stop attacking Rand Paul, stop attacking mtg. And because it doesn't help him in the end and it doesn't help them and it doesn't. Doesn't help America. So we're here, you know, trying to get Trump to course correct. It looks like he's starting to do it. Eric.
