before you un-spool enough toilet paper to accurately represent the amount of total paper the average american uses year after year? 1,000 yards? 5,000? 10,000? you'd have to walk over 30 miles, un-spooling as you go. yes, i realize that would mean the role of toilet paper in question would be many times the size of your home. that's not the point. the point is we use and reuse an awful lot of paper in this country, which means there is an awful lot of opportunity in the paper industry. you can check those opportunities out at mikeroweworks.org/haw. something to consider next time you find yourself sitting there in the reading room, pondering the mysteries of how america works. see you next time. larry: hello, folks many welcome to "kudlow."

i'm larry kudlow. the new york times got it w completely wrong talking about donaldrog trump's inflation whh by the way was get this, 1.6% al an annual rate on average, over the entire firstfi term, 1.6. sandra smith and steve forbese will setfo the record straight. plus house oversight chair jamet comer will be here to unveil a new subpoena for merrick garland and senator mike lee will talk about joe biden's lawless student loans and oh, why is wendy's jacking up their hamburger prices? and finally, is mitch mcconnell about to endorse donald trump and mark simone and david chaffetz will weigh in later in the show and a aaron comb will e here as well.im

edward lawrencmie is in c washington, swimmingan as best e can. what's cooking down there today. >> reporter: sinking in the swamp in washington. the presiden pt is feelingg pressure over the economy, feeling pressure over ukraine funding. the president also feeling pressure with the wave of migrants illegally crossing the southern border. congressional leadership met with the president in the oval office. the president wanted t to talk about ukraine.esid the house speaker pressed the president over border funding. listen. >> we're hearing from ther pr american people of all partiesin and all persuasions and allit cities andie states who feel ths acutely, they understand the catastrophe at the border is affecting everyone and it is top of mind for all the americanu an people for that reason. so i brought that issue upn repeatedly today in that roomoo and again one on witm,h one with the president. i think that's our responsibility. to bring that up.. >> reporter: so the white house applying its own pressure, blaming the losses in theba battlefield on ukraine -- in ukraine on republicans.

>> we're already in some waysoo too late. they lost the town of antifka bb because of ammunition. so in some ways it's already having a dramatic effect on the battlefield. >> reporter: the speaker saying america's needs must come firstm other republicans saying president biden had three years to fix the situation at the border that hes broke through h unwinding the former president's policies and all of this isen wrapped intot' a deadline for a partial government shutdown on friday. here's the president. >>ment congress' responsibilito fund the government, we've gotmi to sit down. it will damage the economy significantly. we all agree with that. we need a bipartisan solution.tn >> reporter: the house minority leader in front of the west wing said that he could see a continuing resolution push this down the road to give more time for negotiations. back to you you, layer youly. larry: just a quick question,

onion, the border issue, wh hast been resolved, if i understand the four corners of the leadership wound up talkingrs abouhit the border even though e thought they were going to talk about a continuing resolution or government shutdown. is the white house leaking, putting out anything about the border story? >> reporter: no. meeting was not going to be about border, this meeting was abou avoiding a shun yaind funding. the -- and ukraine funding.s there iswh nothing out of the white house that there will beon any change on border policies or anything the president is going to do we heard he's considering executive action on the border, possibly limiting people coming across illegally cannot apply for asylum, that sounds familiar to those in the trumpde administration. nothing has beended. decided, nothing is happening yet. larry: edward lawrence, the best of the best.

thank you so much. the new york times writes a piece called trump and inflation. of course, the gist of it iscall trump policies are going to push prices higher. trouble is, there was no inflation numbers in the entireh piece, nato numbers. so let me help them. over the fouatror years of prest trump's first term, the consumee price index average, are you ready for this, 1.9%. at an annual rate for the wholea term, less than the fed's target of 2%. wait a minute. wait, wait. the fed likes to target something called thes personalc consumption deflater, pce that under mr. trump came in at 1.6% at an annual rate. if trump policies held inflatiog below the fed's target in the first term and he pursues similar policiesla to he rejuvenate the economy in thee secondhi term, somebody has to tell me why there will be higher inflation. isn't it joe bidenn't that hade

inflation problem? that never entered into the new york times' story. sto so bidenflation measured by the cpi, 6% at an annual rate overe his three years. and the level of the consumer price index jumped 18% and ofd course individual prices like groceries, up 20, gasoline up 25, all that continues to plague middle class working folks today. even though the overall inflation rate has finally eased down from 9%, prices remain verk high. we'll talk about wendy's in a few moments. by the way, during president trump's term, consumer prices over, co the entire four-year pi increased only 7%. so the new york times is on pretty shaky ground for all this, here's another point. drill, baby, drill.l, th be average oil price during a barrel. under mr. biden it has beendi

nearly $ng $80 a barrel.o hi responding to high war prices, dash-high oil prices, production has gotten back to 13 million barrels a day, thek. pre-pandemic peak underd mr. trump. without the socialist green newm deal, oiill production should he gone up to 15 million barrels a day. the point is, trump's unlocking the oil spigots kepting in prices historically low and the low prices permeate the entire economy. in other words, the new york times, counter inflation. and there were trump's supplyy side tax cuttas for individualsa corporations and smallrpor businesses.ll those are inherently counter inflationary, providing new investment incentives.prod the increased productivity generated higher real wages for

the workforce, but at the same time held down prices. trump will likely extend and even expand his successful tax cut poll sunny a second term and ther ge was the trumpan deregulation, they cut nearly eight regulations for every new significant reg, burning the red tape helped unleash entrepreneurial production and new business formations. that's counter-inflationary, another supply side triumph. even the push for tough tradeto deals including the increase ina tariffs onls china had virtuallm no inflationary impact. despite the screaming from conventional economists, the reality is chinese companies hac to cut their margins in order to swallow tariff penalties on their ununfair trading

practices. other trade deals like usm ca, japan an south korea lowered tariffs for the most part.e trump's trade defense ofkers american workers did not lead to higher inflation as so manygu people getes wrong.d finally, look for a second administration to be much tougher on federal spending after watching joe biden's 6r tril$6 trillion assault, that'sr heading to 50 trill chron t dollarris in marketable federal debt. also, the trump administration is likely to push for executive budget impoundment authority another weapon to cut spending. the new york times never seems to understand that supply side policies that enhancenh production, add investment, yoau along with a shrinking role for government is inherently counter inflationary. as far as mr. trump is concerned, he did it once, he's raring to do it again.

alagail right, that's my loop. try to be helpful to the new york times. let's turn to sandra smith and steve forbes, forbes media chairman, editor in chief andsa author of inflation, what it is, why it's bad and how to next he it. well tom to o you. >> i -- welcome to you. >> i just came for the show. that was therapeutic. larry: you sent me the timesmo story this morningrn. maybe i should read the times more often, maybe not.e re but the reality is, it annoyedyu me. they didn't put in any numbers in. you know, if trump had such a low -- his inflation rate, 1.6% for the whole four year period.d an.d here's joe biden with biden inflation, you can't go toflat wendy's or mcdonald's and buy a hamburger without seeing the price jacked up. i don't know why this reporter didn't put any of that stuff inr >> ici hope you're not hungry from noon until 2:00. larry: that's it. >> you might want to change you

your lunch hour to 2:00. that's a fascinating story. y the morninorg post put it on the -- the new york post you put it on the cover to you day. larry:ry the wendy's story. >> int that's businesses havinl deal witinh an incredibly uncertain environment. what's thewhat worst thing for business? uncertainty, right? this is whatth we'reis living ug under this administration. larry, you're the one who's been saying the economy's not so bad but i am looking at right nowaf the average american family is spending the largest chunk of their disposable income on food, whether in a restaurant or thet grocery store than in over 30 of years. it's a great economy if you're not buying a house, baying awh car, going grocery shopping orus eating at restaurants. the new york times article, theo white housnte is not primarily r controlling inflation, no,e no they're responsible for runnings inflation up to levels thedo country has never seen. you if you want to know why

people are sour on the economy when there are metrics pointing to some positive development, i it's becauset people just areni taking homnge as much cash. larry: look, gdp is strong. it's being driven a lot by gov government but people can'tor afford to lived in the bideno economy. that's ali problem. b gdidp numbers are coming in strong. tremendous consumer stimulus from government spending. but you're right, all the things you say is right which i repeated a millions tiles,h affordability is low, real wages are falling. u.s. stock market is priced in dollars.. if you have less buying power, even though the 401-k is going up, the dollar is not going as far. larry: why do tax cuts and deregulation cause higher inflation? if trump win ders i would expeco see him -- he said it a millionx times, hece will make the tax cs permanent, build on the tax cuts, he's going to continue deregulation, how could drill, baby, drill putting more oil in

pbe inflationary. how is that going to raise inflation? the guy didn't have inflation in his s term. >> it raised inflation because trump would be president. larry: oh., okay. >> anything hg hee does is bad. larry: all right.>> a i got it. >> we're being to have plagues, parasites and the fact of the matter it is, you hit it in the introduction, if the you have ad stableol dollar, we used to call king dollar, if you have lower prices which is a price on productive work, risk taking an, success, you lower that burden,u guess what happens? the economy prospers. one ofom the things that's killo the economy today with this modern socialism is the unending avalanche of new regulations, where do they get theio congressional approval tnao ba the internal combustion engine in they didn't. but they're doing it anyway. anything that makes life good they're against. larry: i remember what you said a couple years ago with biden,

regulatory inflation,. > modern socialism. ma.larry: you don't have to buy the steel mills. you do it through governmentyork regulation. that's what the new york times and so many people do not understand that.ny you nailed this actually probably three years ago.ob and abi want to add one other thing. trump was always keen -- this is something people didn't understand. dollar to remain the world's reserve currency.e he lookscu at that in terms ofmi making america great. he doesn't want -- people are saying trump wants a -- we never had this problem with him. i know he was critical of the fed. he wanted the dollar. he's going to go pack to deregulation, drill, baby, drill and the tax cuts. how can that be inflationary? >> the new york times almost ignores the trump pitch to a address regulation and deregulate. it finally brings it up in onenn of the final paragraphs.

if there's one way trump could reduce inflation, it could bece through deregulation, , a few republican economists tell the writer of the piece. they may pass the cost savings a along to consumers. that's someone who may need a an economics 101. larry: what's your favorite thinnog on the wendy's menu. >> i haven't been there since n rouge. larry: how was the congestion pricing? >> i hear they have good chili on the menu. larry: it wouldn't occur to me to buy the chili. someone is saying it's good. >> they have a good ice cream cone. larry: play the quote fromes yesterday'tes show, the editor n chief from national review. >> is it true you were sighted at mcdonald's over the weekend and your whole cash wad was

blown. >> mcdonald's drive-through, tws ofo orders of large fries, a large shake, $17.s. i love mcdon at.ve it's the per first time i've goo mcdonald's and felt ripped as no off. >> there's not in way he ate t> large fries. larry:i $17. how come that's not in the new york times story. you know what that's called, bidenfl a tion. >> i was surprised, dave's single, $5.99. here in times square -- who is paying $10 for a burger from wendy's. >> modern socialism will take r toll. california they're raising the minimum wage to $22. what do you think that will do to food for people who can'tou afford the fancy restaurants. it will raise their cost of living. larry: david malpass was here a

week or 10 days ago saying the same thing. t bidens, they'rooe spending way o much but the regulatoryis inflation is massive. among other things, it stops the flow of goods production. so you havse too much money chasing too few goods. so the gdp is strong. g thdpe inflation continues. you can't afford to live in the biden economy.t that's why it's -- >> it will be interesting where gas prices are on memorial day. >> the slogan should be bring back the dishwasher. larry: bring back the d dishwasher, the wood stove. pizza -- i don't eat much pizza either. you can watch sandra every day with john roberts on america reports, wednesday -- no, weekdays at 1:00 p.m. eastern. i almost made the cut today but i lost out to fani willis. coming up on "kudlow," tonight,e housrse oversight chair james comer will be on set. he's unveiled his subpoena for

house oversight chairr james comejar unveiling a brand-new subpoena for attorney general merrick garland regarding joe biden's illegal

classified documents he shares that with judiciary chair jim jordan. here he is right on set. mr. chairman, thank you for this. you want to know for the robert hur investigation, let me maket sure we lay this out for our viewers, what the documentswh were, you're interesteetd whethr there were video interview asth well. can you tell us abouist this. >> we want to see the transcript for the robert hur interview with joe biden because we have questions about joe biden's mishandling of classifiedcu documents. we'vmes,e been very transparet and a public about our concerns about the documents. we have some e-mails from hunter biden to various people aroundu the globe that he was receiving money from, that in these e-mails are attachments that yoe apeer to be government documents. we want to know were those part of the classified documents that were mishandled by joe biden. in the hur report they listedn the countries that were involved and some of the countries where

the bidens have received millions of dollars. larry: china. >> well, ukraine, russia, some of those places were in there, china. exactly whichknow documents they were and we alsok want to know if robert hur asked certain questions about hunter biden. we know from a transcribedom interview we did months and months ago with kathy chung that we believe there are some discrepancies in what she testified about joe biden's knowledge and involvement in mishandling the classified documents versus what the media reports have been about robert hur's interview with joe biden so we want to put everythingo pu together and make sure it's honest. look, everybody's been on me ann the media about releasing theev transcripts, every time weer hae a deposition. normally in a major investigation, you don't release the transcripts until you deposed everyone but the media's on us every day, when are you going to release the transcripts. we ask for transcripts on joe t biden, they're silent.

larry: some place, roberts hur had to have asked joe biden whye he thought -- why he, biden, thought, it was legal for a senator or a vice president to take these classified documents away they're supposed to go into the national archives under the presidential record act a. everybody knows it. whether he has a faulty memory or not, he broke the law. it's got to in there. hur must have asked biden what doing as an ex senator taking stuff away. >> you would think. we don't know what hur asked. we need to know.cent a central theme they in the biden influence peddling investigation is the fact that the biden family, specifically the son and brother of the president of the united states,e were selling access to joe biden. and one of these e-mails wasin a dated at a time when hunterr biden wabis trying to prove hiss worth through a certain foreign

national after joe biden left t thhee presidency. we know that hunter biden was receiving a huge salary from a ukrainian business. the day joe biden left office they cut his salary in half. the e-mail went out at a time w when hhee was trying to prove hs worth. that's what the biden brand did. any time they were pitching themselves to a foreign government, a foreign national, they would putfo joe on the pho see, we're close with joe. larry: do you think robert huro asked joe biden who else saww these classified documents? for example, i'm just going tolp pick a name randomly, hunter 00. 00. hunterbiden. do you think hunter biden walked into the garage with the classified documents strewnan about, there were no secret service agents, and a he lookedi at them and maybe communicated with his clients in china and ukraine and kazhakstan, do you

think he did that? >> if robert hur didn't ask that question, that's medical practice. the documente ins that joe bidet mishandled are in at least four different locations. how did they get in four different locations in one of the locations we know hunter biden lived there for two years. a lot of the ad addresses for te wires from china were sent to joe biden's house. that's where hunter biden was living. larry: one last one.bi the fbi and justice department are lockinowg up this guy, smirnoff, who was supposedly ond of the fbi's top most respected informants, i guess not. they're saying mr. biden, president biden is saying your v investigation is now overov because this guy, smirnoff, is no good., i wanted to give you a chance to respond to that. >>ot th not true. smirnoff was a tip we received from chuck grassley. we couldn't determine whether it was accurate. we don't know who the informant was. we knew from what christopherst

wray tolopd us, he was one of t highest paid, more trusted in4 informants in fewer row. most of the people -- bureau. most of thnfore people involvedn that allegation were in ukraine. i can' tt go to ukraine. i can't send my staff. larry: we talked about this many times. >> this has nothing to do with the tens of millions of dollars the bidens took from china, romania, russia. larry: each family member had llc company. >> 170 suspicious activity reports, tens of millions of dollars from foreign nationals that they can't explain whatis they did to receive the money. the investigation is abouthe interviewing the former biden a associates and thessy say they were selling, th access to joe d joe was a willing participant. that's what th e investigation is over. this fbi informant wasn't a part of the investigation something we looked into but couldn'tt verifywa because we didn't know who he was. larry: i must have asked that a half dozen times in the last year and you always said that,

so the investigation continues. >>ely, the investigation contii tomorrow we depose hunter biden and we'll have the big public hearing that hunter biden claims he desperately wants to have ann we'll go from there. we want to issue a report, telll the american people th te truth and hold people accountable for wrong doing. larry: oversight chair, james comer. thank you, sir. we appreciate it.g coming up, senator mike lee will talk butt biden's y lawless student loans and other things. later on, the rumor out there, u mitch mcconnell ready to endorse donald trump this is awe believe it or not. we have mark simone and jasonin chaffetz to weig,h in. i'm kudlow.in thuee investigations continue, s they must. ments) at fisher investments we may look like other money managers, but we're different. (other money manager) you can't be that different. (fisher investments) we are. we have a team of specialists not only in investing, but also also in financial and estate planning and more.

(other money manager) your clients rely on you for all that? (fisher investments) yes. and as a fiduciary, we always put their interests first.

(other money manager) huh, we're more different than i thought! (fisher investments) at fisher investments, we're clearly different.

>> tens of millions of people in debt were literally about to be canceled, their debts.

my maga republican friends sued usnd the supreme court blocked it.op that didn't stop me. larry: the supreme courtla blocked it.ha that didn't stop me.p i don't know what biden doesn't understanddo about legal or the supremupree court.in joining us maybe tino help us ok utah senator mike lee. welcome back to the show. can you explain to me, i mean, his is i a direct quote. he's out in california, raising money. the supreme court blocked it but that didn't stop me. talking about student loans. huh? does the supreme court stop you or the law stop me? i don't get it. you've got to help me, sir. >> yeah, larry. the statement might have been morebe accurate had he said thew law prohibited it and the supreme court acknowledged that the law didn't a allow him to di what he did. that's what he's papering over.e he's papering over the fact that once that happened he came up w withit another also really skety basis for just changing an c

entire ohaf government program. keep in mind, this isn't just about forgiving a few loans, what he's saying basically is that he's going to make otherot taxpayers pahey for everybody else's higher education debtut without congress making that decision. if we decided in this country te socialize the cost ocif higher education, to give everyone a free higher education experience paid for by u.s. taxpayerdo dollars,ll that would be onethin thing. we're not in that universe. soan you can't just utilize vast powers as president of the united states tohi decree this. this is taking money away from the american people at a timet when they can't afford it, when the average american household has to sh shell out an additionl $1,000 everyt ro month to put rs over their heads, groceries on i the table and gas in the car.

larry: a somewhat different subject, a generic issue of breaking the law, senator lee. we know the president has plenty of ex executive authority. h took away the trump policies of remain in mexico and title 42 and other things. o he could putth it back. but we also know, in fact we heard this from vivek ramaswamy lastla night, we know that the president or any executive has a decision to deport, right, to deport criminals, for example. we even have the mayor of new york, eric adams now, who is saying maybe we shouldn't have sanctuary cities least for convicted felons. you're a lawyer. do we have -- does the united states have,e does the president have the authority to deport criminals or to deport illegals, is it already on the books? >> larry, not only does he have that authority. he ah has that obligation, that duty. it requires us to deport people who have violated our laws, who

for one reason or another arehe nsuited for being in the united states -- are not suited fore being in the united states, if theyy came here illegally, if they have aggravated circumstances, a felony conviction or something like that. once they're deported they need to actually be deported.when that's an obligation. when he fails to carry that out, that's how we end up with a mess, in a circumstance we'vemu gordt murders being committed, h tragicat murder of the bright young nursing student at the university of subcontractoeorgr gentleman, recent -- juster ofn in georgia. we learned oviduf a shooting by. individual against police in washington, d.c. who had an valid order of deportation and it wasn't beingf implemented. to enforcehooseor not the law over and over again they're violating the law,he allowing the law to be circumvented and they are enriching the international drug cartels to the tune of tens of billions of dollars every year

while flooding our country not only with 10 million illegal aliens but enough fentanyl every year that does in fact kill 110,000 americans and if administered in the right doses would be enough to r kill every single american. okay.n. of course i agree with you. i guess what i'm asking is, can you or maybe you have and other conservatives in the senate actually stepped up and put out therthe a deportation bill or let's just say a resolution that includes current law on deportation, because president trump is going tbeo go there. you know that. he should go there.at you know, that too. i think that's what you're telling me right today. nobody elst e wants to talk abot that but i thinkl trump is dead right. particularly when you seige thhe horror shows, this beautiful young woman who was killed. >> larry, that's one of the reasons -- g to have toe goin deport a lot of the 8 million illegals that comelo across. i'll give you the last word on

r lee.senato i'm waiting for the senators to step up, the good senators, conservative senators, maybe they in thrme form of a resolutn and underscore trump's point abouout deportation. >> look, we had an opportunity ago.ple weeks unfortunately it was squandered with the ukraine deal. 17 republicans decided to bringg thethe debate to a close. wewe have another opportunity wh the spending bill that's teed up. it's being brought forward, considered a must pass vehicle as they say. we could insist right here,, right now, that in order for us to pass this measure, we'res, going to demand that they pass hr2, border enforcement mechanism passed by the house. we should do t that. w if we don't do that, we're t lowing this thing perpetuated. even thougugh the president has the authority, hr2 would give add additional tools that would

make it harder for the president to allow this to go on. larry: senator mike lee, thank you.th y switching gearous on the fly, we're going to ask is mitch mcconnell ready to endorse dodonald trump. my favorite rumor of the day. we're going to the talk to mark simone and jason chaffetz. mr. chaffetz was once upon a time chair of the house oversight committee. so lot os of rumors that mitch's guy and trump's guy are talking and we're going to get an endorsement from mitch mcconnell. what do you sunshine. >> i think it'seing. good -- wo you think? >>u th i think it's good. good news. larry: do you think it'sis plausible? >> i think it's necessary. the fact there wasn't an endorsemen t causes a riff. is mitch mcconnell going push donald trump over the top? no. it's going to show unity. the messagleade a, i think it'se

importan it one. he's no fan of donald trump's. the fact he's getting behind, uniting behind the party to defeat joe biden is a good j thing. larry: oei believe he'll do it he's aitn old veteran. he will do it for the sake, heen wants toat win the senate. larry hogan is a liberal a republican in maryland on most issue but who cares. >>es b need his vote. larry: thank you. mark simone, i had a question for you. how many people watch seth meyer and how many people watch the super bowl and why did joe biden decide to go to seth meyer, he blocked traffic here across the street which annoyed me which is secondary. >> he has the dumbest communications department in the world. they turned down the last placem remaining on earth whereun you n reach 120 million people. larry:rt 120 million people. >> seth meyers on a good night 700,000 people0.a the i think they think it was

younger voters. i happened to be there in rockefeller center for anotherle evenr t and i noticed, i've nevr seen this with an american president, there was no crowd waiting for him.r ithi was announced all day on te news. ay other president, hundreds of people would be lined up waiting to see him. larry: where was he having the ice cream cone? >> it's called von louins ice cream, real cool, hip, all. larry: he would rather do thato nobody watching, 120 millione people. what doemas does that tell you? >>ers, if you want to impress wd leaders, don't hold an ice cream cone in your hand. >> who orders an ice cream inam february in new york? who does that? larry: whoever goes to wendy's for congestion pricing. >> he looked like he was getting more done. larry: michigan primary

tonight. not a lot of discussion about -- there's a whole group of progressives, arab americans,ns what's her, name, tlaib. >> rashida tlaib. larry: they want to vote for uncommitted not for joe biden which could embarrass joe biden quite a bit. what do you make of that? >> iha think that's where a lotf democrats are, uncommitted to the idea that he will be their leader to put him over the top in november. i think michigan is really inn play in donaldpl trump's favor. i thin k those union workerss understand that joe biden isde trying tn o shut down the combustable engine and wants to put them out of work and i think donald trump is going to thrivef in michigan which will probably be in the democratic camp no longer many i think trump isk th going to win michigan. w because they'vine got that manyr problems. larry: he hasn'oblemst been tha much, it's sort of interesting. but i bet gets a good turnout. we've talked about this last night. the alignment, there's tremendous, re realignment in

american politics today. yo, u haveyo working class whit, blacks, hispanics, asians, thosa people aresi going to vote for trump. i mean, pollsters can't pickio that up.n it's no like just democrats,no republicans and independents. you'veemoc got a working class revolt against joe biden and the progressives and the wokesters. >>e bi with reagan, they calley them reagaoun democrats, workin class undewir the radar. that ires trump's -- one of his greatest accomplishments. he returned the gop to becoming e working class party. democrats hahad a lock on that r years. it will be the end of nikki haley when that happens. who? the republican hillary clinton. la the republican hillary clinton. >> she did a good job wasting $78 million of donor money. larry: it's like it's a free country, that's the way i look at it, it's utterly irrelevant. you love wendy's?

larry: the question still is why does the u.s. seem to with be betraying its greatal ellie,s israel, let's brinrag in aaron cone, special ops veteran. we're going to give you a quote fropresident biden on the subje. take a listen, please. >> range of motion dan's coming up -- ramadan's coming up. there's an agreement by the israelis they would not engage in activities during ramadan as well in order to give us time ta get all the hostages out. larry:ages he's saying that n some goofy evening talk show,ho late nightw. talk show.sr has israelae agreed to this? secondly, the united statesin apparently is bringing t a resolution in the u.n. thatd would stopna israel from taking out hamas in the south and sop forth, so on. what is going on here? what can you tell us? >> so here's where i'm at with this, larry. i thinthatk it's obvious biden n

catering to the younger voters. he's feeling the v heat. he's disliked by every side. him and blinken haven't done an effective job of maintaining the relations in that region and negotiating and navigating the complexities of israel. it's not black and white, that's number one. it's i complex. as far as be put being continuous pressure at this stage almost fiv se months in after israel dismantled from what i understand 18 or 19 of the battalion size cells of terrorists of the 26 throughout gaza over the last five months, i think biden feels that israel can handle it, even if thesefi there's a cease fire, even if israel has the brakes put on them again, let's lean back inte the hostages and give the arabs 30 days to have ramadan. goo israel is good with that. israel's got 2 million arabs inside of israel who serve in the idf, it's a big part ofse

society. they don't want to shake up ramadan. they know how important that is to israeli and palestinian arabs. biden thier thinks israel will l with this and they can pick upus the heat again afterwards. this gives hamas more time.g it's aboutth understanding the middle east. hamas go t their win on october 7. thoctober 7. the truth is rail is crushingpo hamas.li it's got -- israel is crushing hamas. netanyahu and benny gantz and his team will keep doing whatt they have toth do. they may tone it down a bit during d ramadan. larry: so ramadan, i haven't heard hamas say they agree to a cease fire or releasing any prisoners or hostages. but the point is, what about annihilation?

raffa city its important, south gaza is very important.im israel'spo there. it's close to getting the job done but it's got to get the job done and you know what? kna couple of electoral votes around dearborn, michigan, seems awfully short-sighted to he me with respect to the existential threat tmio israel. the only democracy in the middle east and supposedly america'sis greatet ally. >> larroy are, you're 100% correct. rafah is the final terroristol stronghold in gaza.he it's wherere that pressure cookr or the campaign forced all of thos te terrorists through tunns into that one last corner and i believe from some of the people i've been chatting with quietly that there are a significantsi numbergn of hostages in rafah. i just don't think that biden- really -he- he doesn't a clue as to what he's doing here. it will affect him in the election. israel will keep doing what it

those do next time we talk itra will bele the same conversationi but israelst will have killed me terrorists. larry: all right. larry: all right. thank you, i i aaron straight out of my torso! one for you, one for you. oh, you're a messy one. cool, right? so cool. anyone can become an agent of innovation with invesco qqq, a fund that gives you access to nasdaq-100 innovations. hot dogs! fresh, warm hot dogs! before investing carefully read and consider fund investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and more in prospectus at invesco.com.
