oh, let's welcome jeff charles political analyst and contributor for red state dot com onto the program. good to see you. jeff. is the american flag dated devices and the need of replacing? no, that's absurd. i mean, i'm, you know, i'm not into saying that the whole set up in thing thing, but when people do it, this is the reason why they, they don't really know their history. they don't really understand what the flag is supposed to mean. the. she took issue in her office that she wrote about this with the fact that one of the stripe is white and that's supposed to signify purity and she wants to make that off. why? because america is not here. she is right about that american does have a troubled history when it concerns race. however, what she's missing is that these are the values upon which the nation was founded in these were never meant to describe a nation as it is. these are values that we must continually ascribe to, so we have to always push forward to attain those values. america was founded on values that were essentially impossible for any nation to reach. but the idea is

jeff? >> i tell you, charles, the term perfect storm gets overused these days.a hack at jbs, it's kind of a perfect storm. that is not necessarily a bad things for the guys. >> yeah, how resilient the supply chain is. you go from where we were, disaster to this time really good demand and we're able to meet that demand at a price that is profitable, which is a nice thing for a change. >> which we haven't had for years. charles, these pigs are inquisitive. if we eat them, it's only fair that they try to eat me. we asked what are the prices in terms of pork right now. they're up 3%. but things like bacon, even higher than that. where are the prices going? >> bacon is a bargain at twice the price. that is a good thing. again, you use the term perfect storm. good demand, perfect supply. it will level out. look at lumber. once the demand was met, it pulled back. other commodities will follow the same track. >> yeah, they need to day profitable. if you've been in the middle of pigs, they could eat you if you're going to eat them. >> charles: jeff flock, you're the epi

charles. and pleased that representatives jeff for then berry and adrian smith are joining me in this effort to recognize a nebraska hero. today i call on the navy, congress, and the white house to recognize the service and sacrifice of petty officer first class french so that all americans, especially our nation's future leaders and service members, can be inspired by charles' display of patriotism and sacrifice. but also so that family of charles can be comforted by the eternal gratitude of the nation that petty officer first class french so dutifully served. the three decade veteran salutes him. i yield back the remainder of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from north carolina, mr. rouzer, for five minutes. mr. rouzer: mr. speaker, i rise today in recognition of the north carolina sweet potato commission's 60th anniversary. in 1961, six sweet potato producers chartered the commission to support growers and to maintain north carolina standing as a leading sweet potato producing state. there are n.o.w. now more than 400 sweet potato growers strong, as well a

i look as far as i can see charles: all right now the same week we get jeff bezos, he's officially nown rival elon musk continues to turn his celebrity famous, and people are starting hating on him because of his stuff with the cryptocurrency so there's a song that i love called "rocket love" by stevie wonder and there's a line in there that says"you took me riding in a rocket, you gave me a star and dropped me back to earth." you know, aaron, are there stock s that you love or like a lot mostly in part because of the ceo, the way people looked up to him as a professional investor, are there ceos that you admire enough that influences you investing in their stock? >> there are a few, i probably have a little less than some of the others, but i think marry ba ra for gm and again, she, you know, stellar record. charles: she's done extraordinarily well. we got to leave it there. thank you, both very much. ashley, over to you. >> take care. ashley: any time you can get stevie wonder into market coverage, that is a good day, charles payne. i know, you did it! superstition, one of the greate

day as i needed things and that is not going to change because jeff bezos decided go into space so i would stick with the name for now. charlesgary, talk about oil. it touched 70 bucks this morning. you talked about it a lot. talking about demand for 100-dollar options. west texas intermediate going to 100 bucks is that too farfetched? >> i'm wary after a run we're hearing about big numbers. i don't know about hundred but we're going higher. administration shutting a pipe loin down doesn't help things either. i think we're going higher. oil stocks extended in the near term. i'm bullish on them right now. i see no reason to change that stance just yet. if you looked at the new yearly high list late last week it, was energy after energy after energy stock. i think that will held steady for now. charles: real quick, victoria, the big deal of the morning was in the material space. vulcan buying u.s. concrete. negotiations of infrastructure really seem like they're getting close. maybe there could be a deal. if so, what is the best way to take advantage? >> i think there is multiple ways you condition play along the infrastructure

jeff, love talking to you, my man. you always make me feel a lot better. see you real soon. >> okay. charlesa workers paradise, but four million americans voluntarily punched out. that is key positive. i'll tell you why. reddit revolution making headlines again as pool of names swept up are larger. wendy's got a wall street downgrade this morning. the trey's trades is back with the hottest names. maybe the sec gave the reddit investor what they always said they always wanted. we'll explain when we come back. stay restless, with the icon that does the same. the rx crafted by lexus. get 1.9% apr financing on the 2021 rx 350. experience amazing at your lexus dealer. some say this is my greatest challenge ever. on the 2021 rx 350. but i've seen centuries of this. with a companion that powers a digital world, traded with a touch. the gold standard, so to speak ;) [typing sounds] [music fades in] [voice of female] my husband ben and i opened ben's chili bowl the very same year that we were married. that's 1958. [voice of male] the chili bowl really has never closed in our history. when the pandemi

particularly among progressives to see how far they can go with this , jeff flock in illinois on that. i want to go to robert charless on what's going on with russia, and a tense relationship i think that's probably an under statement, robert, but they have warned already that we should be prepared for uncomfortable signals ahead of this summit between president biden and president putin, what do you think they mean by uncomfortable signals? >> i think honestly what we're looking at, neil, is they meet on june 16, and i think that russia is testing biden, testing all of us. i think that's transparent and i think biden needs to show a little less chamberlin and a little more winston churchill which isn't just firmness. it's also just understanding what's really in front of him. russia and china are coordinat ing closely. when the senior leadership of russia and china met on march 23 within hours after that, you had the ukraine, the buildup of russian troops on the ukraine border and you had tense fly- buys and intensive exercises around taiwan by china. they're going to meet this week, by the way again, prior to the

jeff seeings to testify, even warning subpoenas could be issued. democrats on the senate judiciary committee would need at least one republican to make that happen and we did hear from one republican today? >> reporter: charles grassley did weigh in saying he supports the investigation, but noted any talk of subpoenas is premature. >> pierre, thank you. >>> we have news from the current attorney general, merrick garland revealing new action to protect voter rights in this country, calling it the central pillar of american democracy, committing the justice department to examining current law at the federal and state levels to lack for discrimination against black voters and other voter of color. the attorney general vowing to double the civil rights division staff within 30 days. >>> now the remarkable honor, the pulitzer prize board awarding a special citation to the teenager who recorded the minneapolis police and george floyd. tonight, terry moran on the image to bring justice and change. >> reporter: she was 17 years old, out for a walk with her young cousin, when she came upon something awful. in the face of an unfolding act of police terror, darnella frazier took out her phone and turned on her camera.

charles: i'm going to get to you on that, however they got this information, but something you said about attacking billionaires, right? the facade is always, help us go after jeffg i'm seeing they want to -- if you do a transaction over $10 grand a light goes off and they delve into your personal business and they want to do it with bitcoin and everybody else and that's not billionaires. >> that's right. when they're on the political stump they talk about billionaires and big corporations, but if you look at the plan biden introduced to increase funding at the irs nearly doubling the size of the agency, the most money they find to close the tax gap is small and independent businesses underreporting their earnings or things like the child tax credit or the american opportunity tax credit that helps middle income and lower income americans send their kids to school. there are high reporting problems, high error rates in these programs. is that who we're going to crack down with the 87,000 new irs agents? i sure hope not. we need to fix the problems that are auditing single working mothers trying to send their kids to school i don't think is a great source of taxp
