exhaustive, got into a lot of detail about this, including the former president going over there and striking this very lucrative deal with a man who ended up donating tens of millions of dollars to the clinton foundation. so that i think, to make later on i should add, there was some jeopardy in one of these deals involving uranium one with the government of kazakhstan. there was a request for intervention from the u.s. government and right away the u.s. state department and the embassy got involved and, wouldn t you know it, the issue got resolved. hillary clinton was running the state department at that time. tucker: exactly. after lots of money had exchanged hands. there are, to me, some questions about this that not just people like me were asking them. at the new york times and other journalists have been asking them for years, that look like influence peddling and money trading. that may not get up to the hyperpartisan level of hyperventilation that we ve seen

not come into the white house making a ton of money trading off his name, that s not draining the swamp. but when you have somebody like price, it s not only what the president promised in the campaign, it s what a guy named congressman tom price once raised against. i think we ve made it halfway. that is cut it from eight to four jets. now we need to cut it from four jets to zero jets. this is another example of fiscal irresponsibility run amok in congress right now. i want to say to the speaker, don t you fly over our country in your luxury jet. and lecture us on what it means to be an american. don t you tell us about america. that was hip talking about nancy pelosi back when she was speaker of the house. who bey coined the phrase drain the swamp. mr. secretary, we record things and keep the tapes. sorry. look, this is why the irony here is this is why is president trump won.
at something that s not work? eric: more money at that problem. go ahead, wayne. well, i said i ve been suspicious of this market and in a choppy market, i look for steady things. biotech, i like very much. xbi. eric: not worried about this rally? no. eric: jonathan? bonds are getting crushed. it feels very much like financial stocks did back in 2007. very weak price performance and everyone kind of scratching their head. tbx goes up with intermediate term trends. i own it and i think bonds go much lower. rates higher from here. eric: tracy, couple of seconds, the vix, cheap right now, no? yeah. i don t know many people that make money trading off the vix. we know uncle ben s play book is more money, more money. get in the market. eric: more money. that s it for us. thank you for joining us. remember, we work hard. we pay our taxes. and lawmakers continue cashing in on our hard work. while the obama administration is embroiled in three scandals,
clinton did it in 2000, it happened, for a specific situation in 2004. when george w. bush did in 2005, because of katrina. when obama did it, a year ago, it was because of libya. and in each case, price the went down significantly. i don t think the obama administration will do it now because it will look too political and might actually be political if they were to do it, but i would note that gas prices are starting to come down from where they had been and romney, who is blaming obama for the increase in gas prices is not giving obama any credit for the gas prices actually going down. all right. jonas? i think that the government could make money trading this thing, and in charge of the spr. and sell at $100 a barrel and announce you re going to drill in the public lands and i m saying that s not the job of government and moreover a political thing wouldn t become a thing it make money, it d be to drive prices down before the election. and for the iran situation,
