Taxes are bear panel because who doesnt love the tax cuts. No one wants to give up their darling deductions. The republican tax plan is a way of shifting the burden and bringing revenue from other streams. There are too many streams and not enough dams. Though it may seem like you are getting a hefty tax break on the corporate side on a simplified code. You will end up paying for it and maybe paying more by not expressing your tax avied voidans that encourage patriots to keep more of what is rightfully theirs. If the feds can stop gorging themselves on the trillion dollar budget, we cant cut costs and reduce the size of government, can we. These gestures will be meaningless when we are burdened with more debt than we were ever meant to handle. Many republicans voted no on todays budget, mostly from the high tax states. Speaker paul ryan says he will work with everyone so they can clear the next big hurdle. The ways and Means Committee will be putting out the specific plan very shortly, and they will work with awful our members to consider and address their concerns. I believe the ways and Means Committee will be working with these members to find a solution. Kennedy should republicans be worried they arent totally unified on this . Welcome to the show. So obviously i like cutting taxes, i like cutting spending. This congress, democrat and republican. They are not going to do that. What is the risk of raising spending and cutting taxes . You had a great opening and you saidt in aore colorful way tn im going to say. It temperatures not tax reform, its a tax cut. The budget was to have the deficit aloud under the continuing resolution. Can they do the tax cuts they are talking about to bring it within 1. 5 trillion . Today the answer is no. Kennedy cut spending too which is why its not reform. It is a tax cut that will add to the deficit. I dont think they will have the state and local issue on the stable when it comes to the senate to pass tax reform. I think they will try to figure out what type of model they can get to get groalt high enough to brir in more money. Kennedy i have no problem with that. I love supply side economics. Thats fantastic. I dont care who wins politically as long as people get more of their own money. But with the way republicans and democrats are both taxing, and this president , he has great ideas on deregulation. But when it comes to spending, he spends like a democrat on social program and like a republican on defense. Youve said it perfectly. If you are not going to cut social program and add military spending, where are you going to get money to pay for these tax cuts . What im surprised about is the republicans for the last decade have always been about paygo. Payasyougo. If you are going to cut taxes you have to pay for it. All of a sudden the fiscal hawks are no longer fiscal hawrks. Kennedy there are some. And they voted against this budget because they know it doesnt constrain spending enough. The liberty voices in can congress, and democrats are now the ones squawking about the deficit. But they have a big spending problem during the obama years. When i was an advisor to obama, he came out with a tax plan that didnt get passed. The reason that never went anywhere is the republicans rightfully or wrongfully so said it has to be revenue neutral. Now they are saying it doesnt have to be revenue neutral. Which i dont mind. But i dont see how they get the 51 votes. If its true there are some fiscal hawks left, they dont have much margin of error. Kennedy and they have areas that are problematic with the salt deductions and the 401ks. They are not going to be taken care of by government pensions or social security. People in their 40s and 50s are hosed if they cant make it. There noise incentive for them to save. My approach would have been very different. I would have just done Business Tax Reform many somewhere around 20 to 25 . Kennedy i think thats a great idea. And i think democrats would have gotten on board. Kennedy then when you have that victory, then you move on. Then you go to personal and you are having i different debate. Comprehensive tax reform has not been done since the mid 80s. There is a reason for it. Kennedy they are not doing this one for the gipper. Coming up ill talk to economist ben stein. Earlier the president tweeted, do not under estimate the unity within the republican party. Maybe he should have called Mitch Mcconnell first or jeff flake or bob corker. His establishment friends have declared war on steve bannon. According to the report mcconnell and company plan to launch personal attacks on bannon to protect vulnerable members during the election. Will bannon succeed in dynamiting the party from the insides out . Let me bring in my leather bounds party panel. Glenn ham is here. Hes joined by joe concha and reason. Com editor robby soave. You say its about time these republicans are fighting back because steve bannon declared war on them. Steve bannon said he hates the republican establishment an wants to reorients their policies around being more vocally against democrats, against the left, and especially about immigration. That was a problem for flake who only departs from mainstream other docky on immigration. Hes a little more moderate than where the gop is heading. This puts him on a collision course. So the far it seems voters like the bannon approach. They picked trump over so many other options. I dont agree with a lot of his policies, but the gop will have to find some way to fight back without losing the trump base. Kennedy there is something about his personality and message, so republicans are reaching into their war chest with this Mitch McconnellSenate Leadership fund and they are punching back at bannon. What do they have to do to win this fight . It looks like they cant get anything done, they are incredibly unpopular. We learned money doesnt mean a hell of a lot anymore. Kennedy citizens united, go eat it. There was grassroots and social media and trump on social media. Bannon is in a greats position. He descronlts to execute on anything because he was in the white house and didnt do anything there. He can just complain about stuff and say we need change. You can have all the open warfare you want. The scoreboard is bannon 3, mcconnell nothing. He has flake out, cork out, and luther strange. He doesnt have to do a heck of a lot and doesnt need a lot of money to do it. Kennedy the Mitch Mcconnell sides of this is personal for bannon. Question you are stalking about people having to fulfill some litmus test saying they are going to vote against Mitch Mcconnell as majority lead per because steve bannon hates him so much, thats one of the things where voters can say whats in it for me. The president himself has been supporting more of the bannon candidates. He wants that majority to be intact. Kennedy and he wants to back candidates who will win. If you look sat flake and corker, they didnt look to be in strong positions and the began noon candidates may have been disruptive. This may bring a more strong primary candidate. It opens the field a bit. Kennedy it wont be hard for them to tie bannon to charlottesville and message white supremacist and thats what some of these Establishment Republicans are going to do. The challenge they have on the other side is bannon can play into the continued unrest of a large swath of the American People. They are upset and they are still looking for the action promised them in the last election. Kennedy by steve bannon. He has a lot of power in his court. Kennedy you told me to vote for the guy who is looking out for me, and he hasnt done anything yet. Thats because of the establishment not playing along in congress. Kennedy the president talked about the steps hes taking to fight americas Opioid Crisis. President trump my administration is declaring the Opioid Crisis a National Federal emergency. Im directing our agencies to fight the Opioid Crisis. Kennedy ox i codont and commentandfentanyl has killed o0 people last year. 60,000 americans think marijuana should be 64 of americans think marijuana should be legalized. Robby, you have done some reporting on this. What is the correlation between opioid overdoses and death and states where there is Legal Marijuana. States where there is Legal Marijuana they have seen a decrease in opioid overdoses. People can use marijuana to treat their pain and anxiety its a goodal earn tough to its a good alternative. Kennedy if they if they irresponsibly use it, the chances of them dying are clothes to zero. Its not addictist way opioids are its not addictive the way oa the way opioids are. Treatment is smart and stopping supply. My wife is an e. R. Doctor. New jersey passed a great law. You have to have a fiveday supply only prescribed to people. If they still have the pain they have to go back to the doctor and get the prescription filled again. Kennedy the opposite happens. Because when you have prohibition on stuff like opioids for people who are truly in pain and need it as medicine and you limit that supply, what gets bigger . The black market. Drug seekers come in saying i have got stomach pain, can you give me oxycontin . We dont want to take away medicine from people who are in pain. Kennedy thats whats happening with this hysterical push to stem the tide. You dont want kids to get addicted. But we also have to treat the demand. There is definitely a demand problem. Thats related to how the economy is going. The most of hardhit parts of the country are suffering the most of with the Opioid Crisis. Some of these underlying factors driving people into depression. This order is kennedy lowincome states where there is a direct correlation between the number of people on medicaid who become addicted to this. Economic prosperity will go a long way in helping people out of this pain. And thats the stuff we have to focus on. It goes back to less government, less restriction. Stop with the prohibition. The evidence is so clear. Young people, marijuana is their drug of choice. It actually stops them from getting into harder drugs. They are using alcohol less. Marijuana is a saferral earn tough. We have to be realistic. And we wouldnt have kit kat quesadillas. A new development in Hillary Clintons pesk ski uranium deal. Could she be in real legal trouble . Trouble . Katie stare with me into the abyss chevy, chevy, chevy trucks. S we think its because chevrolets are the most dependable dependable dependable trucks. Built to last a long long time.

Chevrolet can i kick it . Yes you can can i kick it . Yes you can can i kick it . Yes you can well im gone by listening to an thiaudiobook on audible. Ame and this guy is just trying to get through the day. This guy feels like he can take on anything. This guy isnt sure he can take it anymore. Unwavering selfconfidence.

Eight priceless corvettes had plunged into it. Chubb was there within hours. They helped make sure it was safe. We had everyone we needed to get our museum back up and running, and we opened the next day. Kennedy Hillary Clintons uranium problem is getting so radioactive she may want to carry a geiger counter. The Justice Department lifted the gag order on the informant. When Hillary Clinton was secretary of state her state department helped approve a deal to sell 20 of our uranium to russia. They apparently bribed anybody they could find to get the deal done. There are rumors some of that money ended up at the clinton foundation. Joining me now, town hall. Com editor, fox news contributor, katie pavlich. Oneonone, just like haulin oats. Katie the details on what the president asked for are still a little bit unclear. However, i do like the idea that the Justice Department was willing to allow this informant to testify before congress. Just because we had an election doesnt mean the corruption of the past goes away. There is a crisis of confidence regarding our institutions. And its important for the Justice Department and congress to clear air. And when there is allegations of corruption as we have seen through the blockbuster reporting the last couple weeks with the clintons, its important to pursue those investigations. Kennedy you have got the clintons, you have got russia. You have got people who have taken pleas. In this case Chuck Grassley who chairs the Senate Judiciary committee has called for a special counsel. As has the informants lawyer. Katie he tried to bring this out during the 2016 election and was told he could not. Kennedy i think a nda is weird. Ron desantis said this was not an fbi agent. Katie its an informant, but its within the fbis investigan spread all over the place. He or she we have the russians breathing down your backs, and the children tons, you dont want them to know who you are. If hes willing to try to come forward and still after the election is saying there is more to this story the American People need to know, not directly from me, but through congress, he must have some interesting stuff if hes willing to put this much on the line because they are going to suffer the consequences if their name were to ever get out. Kennedy there are staggering ramifications if there are so many levels of government possibly involved. Evened the washington post, and the reporting from the hill. It goes beyond the children tons. There is a structure of power within the fbi. Katie there are serious questions about this deal now. The thing that people arent talking about, is it a Counter Intelligence investigation . That means there were National Security implications at stake here. The main question again which Hillary Clinton has a habit of doing, what did she put on the line, what did she put at risk in terms of american National Security in order to line bill clintons pockets with big speaking fees and get 145 million funneled into the children on foundation into the clinton foundation. She talks about how horrible russia is. Kennedy it cost her the election but she was directly benefiting from russian extortion and kickbacks. Katie the question is were spies close to her, and what do they know . Kennedy so many more questions, you are absolutely right. Thank you very much. The russians are flexing their military muscle with boasts that they have the most of powerful army in the world. Its easy to think that all Money Managers are pretty much the same. But while some push High Commission investment products, Fisher Investments avoids them. Some advisers have hidden and layered fees. Fisher investments never does. And while some advisers are happy to earn commissions from you whether you do well or not, Fisher Investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. Maybe thats why most of our clients come from other Money Managers. Fisher investments. Clearly better money management. With some big news about type 2 diabetes. You have type 2 diabetes, right .
