Rumble.com Vince, the live chat already spitting fire this morning. Great to have you with us always. And coming up, I am so thoroughly excited about this topic that we're going to jump into. We've got a lot of great topics to jump into, but we have news right now out of this trade war between China and the United States that is starting to definitely go our way. I will break down all of the latest developments there and how the President of the United States does have the Chinese Communist Party in a headlock right now. Pretty good stuff including some things that your media, our media not talking about at all. I will get into that. Also, Tom Homan, have you seen what he's up to? He was asked a really important question and the look on his face gave us some really amazing answers. This week we've got that.

Hey let's, let's talk about what's going on in the world with China right now, fellas, because China there's, there's an amazing piece of information coming out overnight that China is now ready to start talking. China is ready to start talking. Here's what we have from China. China says that they want to make a deal as of this morning. They say that they're assessing US Talks now and they're hinting at a possible thaw. Look at this from Bloomberg this morning. China says it's assessing US Talks, hinting at possible thought. China said it is now assessing the possibility of trade talks with the United States. The first sign since Donald Trump hiked tariffs last month that negotiations could begin between the two sides. China's Commerce Ministry said in a Friday statement that it is noted senior U.S. officials have repeatedly expressed their willingness to talk to Beijing about tariffs and they're now urging officials in Washington to show sincerity towards China. The ministry saying, quote, the U.S. has recently sent messages to China through relevant parties hoping to start talks with China. China is currently evaluating this. Now you can tell by the way they've written this statement, they're making it seem like that it's America who is desperate to come to the table here. We are desperate to get a deal going with China. That is not the case. It is China who has so much more to lose here in this relationship so dependent on access to the US Market and now China is begging to get to the negotiating table while trying to save face in a statement like that. They want relief and here is why. We are watching the economic indicators this week leading to massive, massive upset in China. China is having trouble. I told you earlier this week that China's factory activity has slowed down to 16 month lows. Take a look at this CNBC report. China's factory activity has dropped to nearly two year lows in April in the midst of these trade tariffs that the President has imposed on them has reciprocated on them as a result of China's war on the United States. China's manufacturing activity has fallen more than expected to a 16 month low, sliding into contractionary territory in April as the escalating trade war with the United States hurts bilateral trade. China's factory activity has contracted beyond even expectations, meaning right now things are slowing to a dramatic halt inside of China which has a massive, massive population of people who work for ungodly low wages at these factories inside of Communist run China. And they've got nothing to work on and they're not getting paid, the money's not coming in and Nothing is being built. Something really, really big is happening right now in China. So big that it includes angry Chinese workers now taking to the streets of China. China Daily Caller headline, china Erupts Furious workers riot as factories collapse under Trump's tariffs. So. So listen here. What is going on in my head? Fellas, hold up a second, okay? I don't know what the hell's going on in my ears. Can the audience. Audience is not hearing feedback here, right? I don't think they are. It was just me. Okay. Sorry about that. I just need to apologize. I'm getting weird feedback loops today. Here we have. Workers throughout China are flooding the streets in revolt as US President Donald Trump's tariffs slam the fragile Chinese export economy. From the cramped streets of Sichuan in the southwest to the cold outskirts of Inner Mongolia in the northeast. Furious workers are demanding back pay and protesting mass layoffs as factories shudder under pressure from Trump's tariffs. Outside an LED light manufacturing plant near Shanghai, thousands of unpaid workers shouted furiously at company managers over wages that have not been paid since January. In central China's Dow County, a similar scene has unfolded outside of a sporting goods store after the company abruptly shut down last week without paying its employees. And that continues to other sectors of China where you have construction workers climbing onto rooftops and threatening to jump if their wages are not paid. This comes after a huge drop in China's exports, now at their lowest since the COVID lockdowns. Goldman Sachs is estimating up to 16 million Chinese jobs could vanish like that as Trump's tariffs bite deeper into the regime's weak underbelly. The tariffs placed on China are having their intended effects in President Trump. So you're watching now as the workers are beginning to revolt, threatening suicide in China. You think this is good for Xi Jinping? You think this is good for the Chinese Communist Party? This is not good for them. Their tenuous hold on power is made all the more tenuous by the people in their country now revolting, at least at their places of business over their circumstances, all of a sudden drying up. China has to figure out a way out of this. They've got to navigate out here. And this is an area where the United States has immense leverage. Understand how these purchases work. I just want to give you a sense of this. I'm going to play some Scott Besson audio for you in a moment to help you here. The Christmas season in China in terms of American purchases starts right now. All of the goods that are purchased in the United States, that are manufactured in China, in order for them to get to us by November and December, those goods need to be purchased, manufactured and shipped right now because that process can take anywhere between four to five months to occur. That is the pivotal season for manufacturing in terms of American imports from China. And right now, those factories are dormant. Right now, those factories are getting crushed. In fact, here's the New York Times this week, they're already talking about China. Now pay attention to this story, because what's happening right now is the media is representing this as Trump's war on Christmas. No, this is Trump defending us in a trade war. And this is how you get the media to talk about it at all, because they think they can use this as a cudgel against President Trump. Retailers fear toy shortages as Christmas tariffs at Christmas. Rather as tariffs freeze supply chain. The New York Times reports toy makers and stores are freezing their holiday orders, predicting shortages and higher prices. Some are consulting bankruptcy lawyers, fearing their firms won't survive. See, what the New York Times is playing with here is they're trying to make this a story about how Trump is screwing over toy sellers here in the United States, when in fact it's about President Trump sticking it to China. That's been sticking it to us and our economy for far too long. President Trump's China tariffs are threatening Christmas. The New York Times ludicrously says, look, just once again, to reiterate, Christmas, which is the recognition of the birth of Christ, is not threatened by holding China accountable for its wrongdoing. Obviously, toy makers, children's shops, specialty retailers are pausing orders for the winter holidays as the import taxes cascade through supply chains. Factories in China produce nearly 80% of all toys and 90% of Christmas goods sold in America. The production of toys and Christmas trees and decorations, usually in full swing by now. This takes four to five months to manufacture, package and ship products to the United States. Mr. Trump's 145% tariffs have caused a drastic markup in costs for American companies. Look at the game they're playing. They're not on our side. The New York Times is not on your side. This is supposed to be an American newspaper. And they are on the side of rooting for the CCP here, attacking Trump and saying this is hurting Americans. Most of the entrepreneurs that have shared their plans with the New York Times have not yet canceled their orders. They hope the President will back away from the tariff brinksmanship. But the alarm in the industry is palpable with the companies predicting product shortages and higher prices. Some business owners citing how crucial holiday sales are to their bottom lines are now consulting bankruptcy lawyers. Bankruptcy lawyers. So this is hitting China right between the eyes, this particular move. So the president having some early success here in obtaining some leverage over the Chinese Communist Party in order to force them to the table. And I cited, I began here talking about how all of a sudden China is now begging for negotiations. Please talk to us. We'd like to make a deal. Please, please, please. Scott Bessant, the treasury secretary, was on the Fox Business Network this morning and he was talking about this very thing. What is China up to? What do they have to lose? Take a look here from Scott Bessen of weeks, a couple of months. What's your timing, Mr. Secretary? Well, again, Maria, as I said, the Chinese need to de escalate these high tariffs because there is the equivalent of an embargo. And the Chinese business model is built on selling cheap goods to the U.S. they sell us about five times more than we sell them. So you know, their factories are closing down as we speak. We're going into the holiday season. Orders are placed for that now. So if those orders aren't placed, it could be devastating for the Chinese. It could be devastating for the Chinese. These orders are placed right now. Right now. And we've got another announcement from the president yesterday that our media are not detecting, are not detecting at all as being super consequential for China. The president is about to pull off one of the most amazing triangulations I've ever seen him pursue. Take a look. This post from Truth Social yesterday, President Trump saying the following alert all purchases of Iranian oil. Pay attention to this. This is Iranian oil or petrochemical products must stop now. Any country or person who buys any amount of oil or petrochemicals from Iran will be subject to immediately secondary sanctions. They will not be allowed to do business with the United States of America in any way, shape or form. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President Donald J. Trump, who buys oil from Iran for the chat, who is the biggest single purchaser of of oil from Iran right now? Does anyone know anyone know the answer to that question? There it is. Vincent laguardia Gambini first in China, China, China, China, China, China, China, China, China, China, China, China, China. Now, the president of the United States is not saying China. Did you notice that in this Truth Social post, the word China does not appear once in it. It just says anybody who purchases Iranian oil, anybody who purchases petrochemical products from Iran must stop now. And if you keep buying that product, you will not be able to do business in the United States of America. Let me put a number on this for you. 90% of all of Iran's oil exports are to China. 90%. What does China. What is. What does Iran do with the money that China sends them? What does Iran do with that money? They commit acts of terrorism. They pay all of their terror proxies to continue to wage war all across the planet and certainly in the Middle East. That's what Iran is doing, harassing our ships, harassing the shipping lanes, attacking Israel, attacking Americans who are out there. This. Iran is doing all of this funding, all of this terror funded by China's oil imports from them. And so what can be achieved here? What is the President saying in this message, this deeply consequential message? He's saying, one, China, you want to keep doing business with the United States, Stop buying Iranian oil. Two, if you're going to stop buying Iranian oil, guess where you might have to go to purchase energy from now on? How about the United States of America? How about you come to us? How about you start importing a lot of energy from the United States? And if you do that, then maybe I could drop some of these tariffs on you. Maybe we can come to a deal. Maybe we can figure out a way this works out for everybody. This is the President working, I think, very smartly right now to give China a path out. He's not saying their name. He's letting them. He's almost letting them leave with their dignity here. He's not threatening them directly by name. But China gets the message. 90% of all exports from Iran go right to China. So what is China gonna do with this information? Well, if they're smart, they're gonna look at it and go, okay, let's stop buying energy from Iran. Let's start buying it from the United States. Let's make this. Let's structure this as a part of a deal so that these tariffs that Trump has imposed on us drop so that we can have some sort of relationship restored that works to our benefit and to the benefit of the United States. President Trump is triangulating multiple events all at once. He's convincing China to come to the table. He's allowing them to keep their dignity in the process. And he's. He's cutting off Iran from their chief financier, which is China. And he's going to slow down the terror attacks and bring about a peace in the Middle east if he can pull off what is clearly built into this true social message. Are you seeing this, too? Yeah. Isn't this good. This is. This is precisely what I want. This is precisely what I want. And that brings us to the breaking news. This morning I mentioned that overnight, China wants to negotiate. They'd like a conversation, please. And now they've moved beyond merely wanting a conversation. Now they have quietly gotten rid of 25% of all of their tariffs on American imports. This is Bloomberg this morning. China's stealth exemptions may amount to a quarter of all US Imports. China, as of today, Friday, has quietly started to exempt some U.S. goods from tariffs that likely cover around $40 billion worth of imports. In what looks like an effort to soften the blow of the trade war on its own economy. A list of exempted US products covering 131 items like pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, has been circulating among traders and businesses over the past week. Some of these products had been previously reported by Bloomberg. It's unclear where the list came from, and it hasn't been officially confirmed, but at least half a dozen companies in China have been able to bring in goods from the list without paying tariffs, according to people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing confidential information. So we're already looking. I mean, that's a massive number. 25% of the tariffs of their imports from the United States. Amazing. Something fascinating is happening right now. And the president of the United States has forced China to come to the table. Chinese factories are slowing to a halt. Chinese workers are taking to the streets. The Christmas season here in the United States, absolutely pivotal. And the president saying it's time to stop buying Iranian oil and, of course, start buying American energy. Something really big is happening, and I'm very excited for it. I can't wait to see. Literally, I can't wait to see what the next few hours hold. That's how quickly all of this is moving. Okay, in a moment. I've got a lot to get to. Tom Holman being asked a question about, hey, when are you gonna start arresting sanctuary city officials? Wait until you see this guy's answer. I can't wait to share this with you. It's coming up. Hey, I've been noticing, as we all do, as you get older, you try to figure out ways to stay younger and healthier.

I'm pumped about this China thing. I love how this is going. I saw that report from CNBC earlier this week and I go, ooh, something interesting is happening here. All these factories are slowing up to nothing. Something really, really big is happening here. And the second Trump posted that Truth Social item on blocking any country that continues to buy oil from Iran, I said it on the radio show yesterday. We were live when that came out. That Truth Social post came out yesterday, 12 to 3 Eastern Time, by the way, nationwide. You can get that on rumble.com vince as well. We do the show with the video camera on. I'm still here. I'm still doing the shows. We're live on it. Yesterday, the second I saw that, I said, that's China. He's talking about China. 90% of all of Iran's oil exports go right to China. It's a really big deal. So we'll see. I don't think China, China doesn't want any more heat. They've had enough. They're crying uncle right now. They're throwing in the towel. Please, no mask. They said they've got a lot more to lose than we do. A lot more to lose than we do. Kind of cool. Kind of cool. What's going on here? So yeah, the, the chat wants more, more, more. I don't blame it at all. I really want more as well. I'm looking forward to it. I really do think we're talking minute by minute developments Here China is asshole. Thank you, Zoidborg. One of the great. One of the great posts. Let me see if I can find that. I love that clip so much. Let's see. Let's see. This clip has to exist somewhere. I know if I can. Well, whatever. I'll find it. I'll find it, fellas. If you find it, text it to me. I'll pull it up on the screen. Okay, let me go to what's going on with Tom Holman right now because that's. That story has me just absolutely riveted at the moment. Listen. Listen to this. So you've got Tom Holman standing outside of the White House this week. Yesterday, the borders are. And he was asked a really fun question. I'm glad somebody in the media asked this. I don't know. I don't even know who asked this question. They asked, why not just arrest all of the leaders who are harboring illegal aliens and shielding them from deportation, these sanctuary cities. Please watch Tom Homan's face as he gives this answer. Take a look. Here's Tom Holman. So the president signed an executive order just this week threatening to defund sanctuary cities for their policies. Why not just arrest leaders who are harboring and shielding illegal aliens, actually terrorists from deportation? Wait until you see what's coming, is the answer. Let me. I'm just gonna. Look, look at this. Look at this. First of all, there's Tom Holman, the bulldog. And all of a sudden, the question starts coming. Why not just arrest the leaders who are harboring and shielding illegal aliens from deportation? Watch his little smile. Look at that. You see the mouth? It's subtle. It's a very subtle. Look at that. Look at the smile. This. Homan. It's hard to get home in a smile. Look at this fella. All of a sudden, little smile, little smile. He's got something on his mind. He knows something that he's not sharing. Here we go. Defund San for their policies. Why not just arrest leaders who are harboring and shielding illegal aliens, actually terrorists from deportation? Wait until you see what's coming. Holy cow. Yeah, somebody said his eyes are smiling as well. Yeah, his whole. His whole demeanor. That's the happiest I've ever seen Tom Oman. At one. At one time, there was. He was overjoyed with the secret that he can't share. Boy, oh, boy. Now, in case you're wondering that they wouldn't arrest people, would they? Well, hell, yeah, they would. They've already been doing it. They've already. They've already been arresting these judges who have been out of control, who've been harboring illegal aliens. They've been all over this already. So, so I don't know what comes next, but this is one of the few times, you know, you've heard from a lot of government officials, members of Congress do this a lot, where congressional hearings, consequences are coming. And then you're like, yeah, yeah, whatever. You say that all the time. Tom Oman's one of the few people, when he does something like that, he smiles and he says, wait until you see what's coming. Forget waiting four to five months for Chinese deliveries for Christmas. Christmas is coming now. This is Christmas. Christmas. Christmas is arriving early. Tom Holman, we got Holman Clause. He's, he's got the bag slung over his back bringing arrests for us. I cannot wait for this. Tom Holman, baby. The smile that spoke a thousand words can't wait. So we'll keep, we'll keep track of that one, too. That one's going to be a lot of fun. And I've got, if I can even get to it today. I've got a million updates. Some of this will have to be on the radio show, but I've got updates on Kilmar Abrego, Garcia, Ms. 13, these lunatic Democrats efforts to impeach Trump. I mean, tell you what, the Christmas did come early. My cup runneth over. I've got too much to get to today. But up next, I'm going to bring in a great guest. We got to talk about what's going on with NPR and pbs. President Trump is defunding by executive order, NPR and pbs. Massive, massive news and long sought by, like human beings with a pulse who don't think it's a good idea. Look here. Who don't think it's a good idea for the government to continue to fund all of this craziness, this propaganda breaking overnight from the White House. POTUS just signed an executive order ending the taxpayer subsidization of NPR and pbs, which have received millions from taxpayers to spread radical woke propaganda disguised as news. Wonderful update. Wonderful update. Yes. Somebody in the chat said pbr. I keep calling it pbr, which makes me chuckle every time I accidentally say it because it's not actually Pabst Blue Ribbon, it's NPR and pbs, which are lower quality products than pbr. President Trump announcing we're defunding them. My next guest knows all about these guys and the way that they've been smuggling taxpayer dollars into their operations and then using that money to propagandize the public. We're gonna get into that in just a moment. Looking forward to that conversation. Before we get there, I've gotta thank our sponsors for keeping this all going.
