It is just coming in right now. The federal reserve announced half a point. That was not the most expected. 48 days to the election, great news for the economy. Critics said it could not happen, but our policies a little policies are lowering costs and creating jobs. As a republican nominee plans to raise your grocery prices. How can a family of four that, like cheerios? i haven t seen cheerios in a long time. And nancy pelosi on the state of the race and the maga threats in the house. And growing calls for center in the senate as a hate crime hearing flies off the rails. You do not support hamas. I oppose you should hide your head in a bag. When all in starts right now.

President has laid out. And therefor, we should use all the tools tools that are at our disposal. So i m going to look at it. That is all in on this wednesday night. Good evening alex. Thank you my friend as always. Great show. Today started with what should have been bomb shell news. From the wall street journal. Last monday, jd vance s team contacted officials in springfield, ohio to fact check claims about haitian immigrants eating pets. The springfield city manager told vance s people pointblank there was no verifiable evidence or reports about immigrants eating pets. The city manager told vance s team that the claims were baseless.

Claims his campaign knew were lies. This new reporting from the wall street journal should be devastating to the trump campaign. But the stunning thing is they probably won t care

Is that no one has tried to kill Kamala Harris in the last couple of months and two people now have tried to kill Donald Trump in the last couple of months. I would say that is strong evidence that the left needs to tone down the rhetoric. Two Assassination Attempts, attempts in as many months. I think it is time to say to the democrats, to the media, to everybody that has been attacking this man and trying to censure this man going on 10 years, cut it out or you are going to get somebody killed. J. D. Vance wants people to believe it is the Lefts Rhetoric that motivated these attacks. Donald trump has taken it a step further directly blaming Kamala
