This is the Joe Pag Show to talk to Joe, called 888-941 Pags, and now it's Joe Pags. Great radio stations across the lane along with Sam and Polo. It is the Joe Pag Show. Glad to have you along for the ride. There's a lot going on. We've got Senator Roger Marshall on today, a former doctor, OB-GY, and also a former Army Reserve guy. He's retired now from both. He's in the U.S. Senate. He's speaking the truth when it comes to the Save America Act. Now, again, people are saying, Save Act. People are saying Save America Act. The Save Act was the first thing they passed quite a while ago in the House. Senator got to it. So, they revamped it, and the president wanted it renamed the Save America Act, which is what it is. And that got out of the House again, and it's still sitting in the Senate.

We talk about whether a leader of Thune is going to be able to get anything done. He's talking about taking a vote on the Save America Act to put people on record. He says he's got 51 Republicans that will vote for it. But he's not talking about putting to a vote, getting rid of the filibuster the way that it is, and doing the talking filibuster, which would make them have to actually debate and argue the entire time until they're done, and then you bring it to cloture, and the president would get the bill on his desk. He needs to make them vote on that by he, I mean Thune. We talked to Senator Roger Marshall about that coming up also. We got Daniel Turner on from Save America. What is it? Energy? What is it? Sam? Yes. Let me add the energy guy. Yes, he is. I want to say Save the Energy. I don't think it's called Save the Energy. It might be. Because I've got Save America Act on my brain right now. But we got Daniel Turner back then. How are the future? Save the energy? Yes. About the same. Yes. Yeah, pretty much. I think about it. The translation power, the future equals Save the Energy.

So bottom line is he comes on to talk about exactly what's going on with the straight of her moves. It is, I know a lot of us say the straights of her moves. It's the straight. It's the one straight. This is the vital waterway that Iran has control over that it was threatening to shut down, and the president said, okay, you shut down the straight of her moves, and we're going to bring 20 times more on your head than we've already brought in the past month. So they seem to be letting some tankers go through now. The price of oil went up to what $121 a barrel, something like that. It went down to 80 something a barrel, something like that. So it plummeted the next day. My question is, why did I pay $319 today? You know what I'm saying? Why didn't I pay like, you know, $230, which is what I was paying about a week ago or two weeks ago, but I procrastinated and waited and got the gas today. It's $319 a gallon. Tomorrow it's going to be like $250, something like that. So the price should drop very quickly as basically we guaranteed the safety by we, the United States guaranteed the safety of other ships from other countries going through the

straight of her moves. Again, for some reason, it's a vital waterway. Daniel Turner comes on from Power the Future, and he's going to talk about why that's such a vital waterway. And I ask him very simple questions because I'm kind of simple. The one question is, we keep talking about how we can be oil independent here if we wanted to be. Let's do that. And then I said, well, can we refine it all? The answer is no. I remember Bill Clinton saying you can't build a refineries, going to take 30 years. Well, it's been more than 30 years since he said that, and we still don't have it. Can the president get rid of regulations and just start building some refineries? We've got all the oil. We've got all the fossil fuels. We just can't refine it. And also, will we restart the Keystone XL? I ask him about that as well. So stick around for all of that. But I want to start with what is important. And there's a lot that's important it's going on right now. But what I find to be vital is that we keep you up to date, oh, it's going on with this military operation. For some reason, some are calling it a war. By definition, is there a war going on while both sides are fighting?

So you could say that there was no declaration of war. There was no announced war. This, I would say, is the same thing. It's comparable to what Obama did with his 26,000 missiles that he dropped. And that was just a military operation. So that's what I'm going to keep on calling it, although our friends over at News Nation are calling it war. But then again, are they really calling it a war? Are they using it as a verb? It is a war that's going on over there. I mean, it could be that. This is what they have to say. Here's the latest. Live updates. Roughly 140 US service members injured in the Iran war. 140. We know that seven died. But they're saying the numbers are 140 now of those who have been injured. Around 140 US service members have been injured during the fight. With Iran, the Pentagon confirmed Iran has rejected the idea that its missile capabilities have been destroyed by ongoing US-Israeli strikes as it strangles oil supplies and expands its war across them at least. On Tuesday today, Iran launched new attacks on Israel, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain,

Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, according to officials from those countries. Iran's parliament speaker, Mohamed Baghar, Kalimadjib, said the country is definitely not looking for a ceasefire to end the war, which kicked off after joint US-Israel strikes on Iran on the final day of February. The US military has struck more than 5,000 Iranian sites since its so-called Operation Epic Fury began, including downing over 50 Iranian ships, according to US Central Command. Hours after President Donald Trump said on Monday, said the war could end soon. It's written to hit Iran 20 times harder, 20 times harder if the flow of oil through the street of Ramuz remains blocked. Now I saw other reports that said, although 140 had been injured, 107 went back to active duty. I'm not sure what the injuries are. They could be, you know, you stubbed your toe. They could be, you know, some sort of a cut in your arm, but they're going, they're back. Again, we know that 7 died of the 140 injured. It sounds like about 30 some odd are not going back to active duty.

I think that's an important thing to mention, because when you say injured, okay, they're off the battlefield, or they're out of the operation, or they're on the battlefield, they're not, they're no active boots of the ground. But they're back in active duty. I think that's an important delineation. That said, we also have other news from that area, including Iranian sleepers cells. We'll keep saying, are we going to have those who are led in by Obama and Harris, no, by Biden and Harris. Obama certainly was running the joint, but those led in by Biden and Harris, are they here? Are they from Iran? Could they be sponsored by Iran? Are there sleepers cells? Well, the answer is a definitive yes. We've been looking into this since I had Sarah Adams on probably a year ago about who's here and who's not here. Damn, we should bring it Sarah Adams back on. Oh, yeah, we said. Yeah, she's good people. This is the headline from news nation as well sleepers cells bringing war to America is a reality, according to security experts. This is from Diana Falzone over at news nation. Sleepers cells have been long time concerned for the United States, particularly last summer

when President Donald Trump was weighing his next move against Iran and ABC report this week claimed the U.S. intercepted transmissions that could be triggers for potential sleepers cells. The Atlantic reported communications and farce broadcast on a shortwave radio frequency similar to the Cold War era, number of stations, portrayed in movies and TV shows. While news nation has not been able to independently verify those reports, security experts say it is highly likely that Iran would attempt to activate sleepers cells and retaliation to U.S. is really strikes on the nation. Yeah, I mean, I don't disagree. I definitely think that's a possibility. Of course it is because Biden, Harris, they'd everybody in gave them, yeah, let's have temporary protected status. Let's have a temporary asylum where you get to stay into your asylum hearing that could be seven years away. I mean, as you were watching, actively watching these violent gangs from Venezuela taking over apartment complexes and places like Aurora, Colorado, they were really doing it. You had the left continue to say they're not really doing it.

So the left today probably would say there are no sleepers cells here. Okay. What? They probably will say that or they'll say if there are sleepers cells here, Trump let them in. And we know that didn't happen. So it's important to note, the answer is yes. Those of you writing me, those of you engaging on social, I love you all love. Even those of you who write me really dumb things, like on Facebook and such, still love you. Still glad that you're listening. Even the lady that I blocked in Minnesota on X, I know you're listening today. I know you aren't. I love you. Sam, I had a block that as I had to. So the answer is yes. Of course, there are sleepers cells here. Of course, bad guys and gals got in. Of course, they came in for nefarious reasons. They want to do harm to us. And I trust and I hope that the administration and the government at large will do its primary job and that is to protect American citizens.

The sanitary of war, Pete Hegseth stepped up to the microphone today. And so did Raising Kane. I think I've got to do the echo for Raising Kane, don't I? I definitely think you need to. That was perfect. It's funny is the left is calling him Daniel or Dan Kane or something like, no, the guy is raising him. Raising Kane. Come on. Raising Kane. Yeah. So he steps up to the microphone. I'll get you an update from them. They know a whole lot more than the media does. They know a whole lot more than I do. They know a whole lot more than the left does when they complain about everything that Trump does is wrong. We'll get an update. What is the status of this military operation in Iran? And I want your thoughts on the ongoing operation. It's been because they said a month. This has not been a month. This has been what? Not even two weeks has it been? It was the last day of February. Wasn't it when this thing started? That's got 11 days. Yes. So we're watching very closely exactly what's going down. We will absolutely give you the update and exactly what's happening. And that will do so in such a way that it'll be understandable. And we get some of those updates from of course, experts like Dr. Senator Roger Marshall.

We call him Senator. Dr. Roger Marshall. Dr. Senator. I call him Dr. Roger Marshall. Who's the senator? That's kind of the way. There you go. Boom. A three three Joe Pags. A three three five six three seven two four seven. Joe Pags. Come. Listen, at the end of the day, this is going to keep going until the president feels like it's a safe time for the Iranians to take their country back. And I hope that the son of the Shaw will go in there running for a while. Get free and fair elections. If he gets reelected, whatever. He can be the president. He can be the prime minister wherever you want to call him. He's not going to go there and be the king. He's not going to go there and be a monarch. That would be bad. And also, you're not going to leave the bureaucracy in place either a three three Joe Pags. Joe Pags. I'm going to tell you about Webroot Webroot.com slash Pags will get you 60% off Webroot.com slash Pags. If you're sick of dealing with the slow computer, I get it. The slow computer blues. It bothers me too. That's why I've got Webroot to make sure I don't have that anymore. Most people blame their device. The real slowdown comes from heavy traditional antivirus programs that hog storage and they drag everything down.

When that's scanning, that heavy, you know, takes up all sorts of space, it slows everything down. The whole computer feels very gummed up. And then when it's done, suddenly the computer feels like it's back again. Why have that? Why don't get Webroot? It's cloud-based. It's an antivirus engineer to stay out of your way. Takes up to 33 times less space. And as I said, six times faster, instead of waiting around, you're getting instant powerful protection without the lag. And whether you're working, browsing, streaming, playing, whatever you're doing, your kids are on there, the elderly is on there, you're on there. Why not get a safety net in Webroot Total Protection or Webroot Essentials? And again, you're saving a lot of money right now. Go inside and apply what I did, Webroot.com slash Pags, Webroot.com slash Pags, save 60 percent or back after this. Yo-katsha.

Hi, great to have you. Thanks for preaching. You're stopping by. We got soundbites from Secretary of War. He'd head south, or we also have some soundbites or a soundbite from Raisin Kane. Do I just have to, you know what I mean, do I just do it for everybody now? Yeah, you do. Yeah, you started it. I guess I did.

Yes Knowing that this man is doing all he can put his stuff on the line to save all our Buzakis that in the world. Yes, and you're gonna sit around that like a bunch of girls in the Whoa, I'm gonna be nice because that don't make sense I mean What does this and every turn we make oil gas the media they end on it with them

Yes, we're just gonna be just fine We got to do what we got to do and now we're quick is up to the raining people get out there Yes, get them dirty rats that's left so they all can be free guys come on Thousand percent and then we ate and the republic has got to get tell the rain is get out there Just look to open up to dig the plug gates. Oh, they lied about the what that the oil shipment area. Yeah, the straight of her moves Yeah, it's close. It's close. It's not close. No, it is not You know Media makes me sick, but hey, all right. That's okay good versus evil. Yes, we're always going to win Well, he love pushing it brother line

November love you man. I love you too. That's AJ from Houston I think he was in a place where he couldn't get loud and he was like I gotta make this real quick But but we love here from AJ didn't hear from yesterday. I was like what the hell's going on with hell's AJ So I'm glad that he was able to calling today Yeah, the straight of her moves is not close and again, there are guarantees for the insular guarantees insurance guarantees being put on the on the ships And into the countries by President Trump in the administration That's the right thing to do because suddenly the straight wasn't closed Was it and Iran is going to talk a good game like Iraq did Baghdad Bob remember him saying they're not here as the tanks were rolling it over his shoulder Let me go to the Secretary of War Pete Hague South he stepped up to the mic today given update on what's going on in Iran today will be yet again Our most intense day of strikes inside Iran the most fighters the most bombers the most strikes Intelligence more refined and better than ever

So that's on one hand on the other hand The last 24 hours have seen Iran fire the lowest number of missiles. They've been capable of firing yet Just the bifurcation just the trend lines that we talked about on our first briefing You see this is not 2003 This is not endless nation building Under those types of quagmires we saw under Bush or Obama It's not even close Our generation of soldier will not let that happen again and nor will this president who very clearly ran against those kinds of Never ending nebulously scoped missions those days are dead Instead We're winning decisively with brutal efficiency total air dominance and an unbreakable will to accomplish the president's objectives On our timeline Secretary of War Pete Hague South you know he's out there getting it done. I like the updates that we're getting

I like hearing from him directly in fact he continued where we are in a very strong place Giving the president united states maximum options and from the beginning from this podium We haven't stated how long it will take our will is endless ultimately the president gets to determine the End state of those objectives, right? But but what he's said Continually and I want the American people to understand is this is not endless. It's not protracted We're not allowing mission creep the president has set a very specific mission to accomplish And our job is to unrelentingly deliver that now he gets to control the thought He's the one deciding he's the one elected on behalf of the American people when we're achieving those particular objectives And so it's not for me to pause it whether it's the beginning the middle or the end That's his and he'll continue to communicate that what we what we serve him as is give him updates on a daily basis of exactly where we are So he can make that determination on the thought Pete heads at the secretary of war

What I what I like about how the administration's handling this is They put the Democrats in the liberals in a place in a corner where they can't really react the way they want to They want to come out and say this is horrible how dare he But they can't because they're on his really bad It's the largest state sponsor of terrorism on the globe They've killed thousands of Americans over the past 47 years They declared war on the United States of America a long time ago And the president now is responding in kind How can the Democrats possibly get behind anything that says this is bad Especially when the administration keeps sending up people like Pete Hegseth and raising canes Sorry, raising canes And anybody and everybody have got Caroline Levin commenting on it today This is extremely transparent now. They're going to not going to take you out through the next operation It's going to be and how many bombs are going to drop But they are keeping us completely updated and by and large as with most issues today

The American people are are behind this administration doing this now any boots in the ground that's going to change things Any sort of nation building that's going to change things But what they're doing they're doing very very smartly a three three Joe Pags want to hear from you This is the Joe Pags show You I'm not pleasure to have you thanks. I appreciate you stopping by. There's a lot going on There's a lot to get to it's the Joe Pags show for your Tuesday I know you just heard AJ and you're like was it Monday? No, no, no, it's Tuesday And it's also a day that we're watching close to what's happening in Iran and again it seems to be nothing but successful So far I understand seven people have lost their lives military members, but the overarching Goals of this campaign seem to be very very successful

Doesn't take away from the loss of life certainly. I didn't want one drop of American blood. I don't like it I want this to be done quickly. I want the people of Iran to get their country back And then I want the world to be safer From here on out into the never ending future So that those who lost their lives did not sacrifice that for nothing It should the sacrifice should mean peace in the Middle East no more, you know declaring war in the United States somebody because you can And the Iranian regime gone That's what I want to see happen here your thoughts a three three Joe Pags a three three five six three seven two four seven Joe Pags.com via the the chairman of joint chiefs raising cane sorry raising cane Steps as a micro today to talk about the operation in or in Iran as well I like hearing it from me. He's just a military dude. He's like I'm here. I'm a military dude And if we get an operation order from the executive for the chief commander in chief We're gonna do it. We're gonna do it right could do it the best anybody else can since our last update St. Com continues to make progress across the southern flank

To date they've struck more than 5,000 targets US strategic command bombers recently dropped dozens of 2,000 pound GPS penetrating weapons on deeply buried missile launchers across the southern flank We also have struck several one-way drone factories to get at the heart of their autonomous capability And of course alongside our regional partners along the southern flank continue to execute intercepts Against one-way attack drones using fighters and and attack helicopters Our strikes mean we've made significant progress in reducing the number of missile and drone attacks Out of Iran ballistic missile attacks continue to trend downward Listen, I'm willing to be wrong about this But when Obama was bombing Syria and bombing Libyan bombing everybody else and their mother When he was pushing the air up spring that that almost ruined Egypt and thank God the Muslim brotherhood was pushed out by the military there. I don't remember them putting up maps like this

But I don't remember them them showing us where the strikes were I don't remember them saying we we own the the lower flank. I mean Obviously, there's showing details after the fact that I'm showing you before it happens But I just I just feel like and yes, I'm certainly biased because I like Trump. I like the administration So I'm gonna be I'm gonna be predestined pre My my preconception for what they do is going to be in a positive light glass half full But they screwed it up or they're giving away, you know military secrets before they they happen I'm going to call them out this appears to be Unbelievable transparency for the American people 90% from where they've started and one-way attack drone has have a decreased 83% Since the part beginning of the operation a testament to our air defenders and our air defense systems And as I said our partners in the region continue to do great work as well Second, we're making substantial progress towards destroying the Navy In the first 10 days of the conflict were more than 50

Iranian naval ships into the campaign using a combination of artillery fighter spommers and sea-launch missiles As Admiral Cooper noted last Thursday We struck in sank and Iranian drone carrier ship and US sent comp continues today to hunt and strike mine laying vessels in mine storage facilities This this work will continue Third we've against our objectives. We begin to target arounds military and industrial complex Again focusing on centers of gravity to get upstream of the shooters out in the field in order to deny them the ability to continue to generate those Those one-way attack drones I mean what a great update incredible update we now understand What they're trying to do if you want to find out what's going on in Iran? You have to pay attention to ptexeth and the reason can you you've got to pay attention to these guys Because at the end of the day you can either cloak it in in secrecy

And we never find out what's going on with our military that we fund Our weaponry our armory that we fund or you can find out And then make a decision about whether you feel good about it. I feel good about it I want I want this 47-year-old garbage to end now And by garbage I mean when you go into a country you take over the country and you force everybody to not have any freedom of movement Any freedom of religion any freedom of of just Living your life and breathing the air without worrying about whether your hair is coming out of the the headdress too much I mean that's not okay And the people there didn't want it There was a radical group of people that rose up in Jimmy Carter paved the way for them to go in there and take over that once very very rooted in in history Entire culture the Persian culture was taken over by a bunch of nut jobs that decided that They felt God told them To go and do this and I think it's disgusting

So enough is enough and by the way if you want to live like that and the people want it whatever I'm fine with that Just don't threaten us don't threaten Israel don't threaten I mean you'll notice that they're they're lobbying missiles into places that are also Islamic countries The UAE Bahrain Kuwait They're just they're bombing everybody around them Which is kind of crazy. So don't tell me this is a war against the religion because it's not These people are attacking those who believe generally speaking the same religious beliefs as they do and they're just doing it because they can Caroline Levin walked out to the podium today, and I don't play a ton of Caroline Levin I'll be honest with you. I like Caroline Levin a ton And I think that she is the right choice for for press secretary But she's nowhere near as fun as it was to play the Kareen Jean-Pierre you know, you know, I mean the KJP fights every day, so we were to laugh We would high five we would cry We left the more we said these we'd like we had to play this. This is crazy. Yeah, Caroline's too good

She's really good. Yeah, like I said the other day. I miss Biden Did you notice that I lost a bunch of followers because they only watch for a second? Right, I came and I said I'm what the heck I don't know how you're gonna take this I really miss Joe Biden But they don't like leaving me nasty notes and you should die how dare you and then I lost like a hundred followers I'm like, what's wrong with you? You stupid you must be stupid, right? So Caroline Levin walks out and says this as president Trump shared with the American people last night The United States military is making tremendous strides towards achieving our military objectives for operation epic fury 10 days in this campaign has been a resounding success thus far and America's warriors are winning this important fight at an even faster pace than we anticipated More than 5,000 enemy targets have been struck so far Iran's ballistic missile attacks are down more than 90 percent and their drone attacks are down by approximately 85 percent Since the start of operation epic fury the United States is also annihilating the Iranian regime's navy

And we have destroyed more than 50 Iranian naval vessels including a major drone carrier ship None of the regime's vessels are operating in major regional waterways and the Iranian navy has been assessed as combat ineffective The trend is clear U.S. combat capabilities are increasing and growing more lethal and dominant by the day While the Iranian terrorist regime's ability to respond has rapidly declined Now the US military is moving to dismantle Iran's missile production infrastructure Our incredible B2 bombers recently dropped dozens of 2,000 pound penetrator bombs on deeply buried missile sites Just I just don't see the downside To taking care of this problem once and for all I don't I don't see it Again, I don't earn any loss of life on our side But I don't know how long you could have people you know telling you We want you to die We were at war with you We're going to continue this until your blood is rolling in the streets

I mean, I don't know how long that has to go before you finally say it We probably should do something about this Then Levitt talks about the state of her moves the guarantees given the energy possible energy disruptions I think this is vitally important especially for those of you who are like Hey man, why is it 390 gallon like I said a little while ago President Trump fully expected the rogue Iranian regime to try and disrupt the global markets That's why President Trump and his energy team have been planning for this long before the strike And have moved quickly to address these temporary disruptions Thus far the Trump administration has offered political risk insurance to tankers operating in the Gulf The treasury temporarily waived certain oil related sanctions And the commander in chief has offered the US Navy to escort tankers when necessary I mean think about that the biggest baddest military on the planet According to the leader of the free world is going to guarantee your safe passage to the straight of her moves Of course the gas price is plummeted. It's a pretty damn good guarantee

I like it the president and his energy team are closely watching the markets speaking with industry leaders And the US military is drawing up additional options Following the president's directive to continue keeping the straight of her moves open I will not broadcast what those options look like, but just know The president is not afraid to use them Rest assured to the American people There a recent increase in oil and gas prices is temporary and this operation will result in lower gas prices in the long term Once the national security objectives of Operation Epic Fury are fully achieved Americans will see oil and gas prices drop rapidly Potentially even lower than they were prior to the start of the operation And we will live in a world where Iran can no longer threaten the United States or our allies with a nuclear bomb I mean boom And again, we saw it one day a dollar a hundred twenty one dollars something like that down down what 80 Um, like the next day because the guarantees were made by the biggest and baddest on the planet

She finishes with this also about the street of her moves. I believe last night President Trump reiterated his commitment toward keeping oil flowing through the straight of her moves So the United States and all of our allies can receive their energy needs President Trump will not allow rogue Iranian terrorists to stop the freedom of navigation and the free flow of energy Let me be clear It is a good thing to wipe out terrorists who indiscriminately target civilians and attempt to hold the global economy hostage And President Trump could be commended should be commended for doing so As the president made unequivocally clear to the remaining elements of this terrorist regime in his statement yesterday If they do anything to stop the flow of oil or goods within the straight of her moves They will be hit by the world's most powerful military 20 times harder than they have been hit thus far Moving forward the stated objectives for operation epic fury remain the same Destroy the terrorist regime's ballistic missiles raise their Iranian missile industry to the ground

Ensure their terrorist proxies can no longer destabilize the region and ensure that Iran never obtains a nuclear weapon President Trump remains confident these goals will be accomplished in swift fashion. I mean I just think they're doing just about everything right so far in this operation What I didn't like earlier is one of the stories that I read to you Said um what they're calling the so-called epic fury with their calling epic fury That's what it's called when you have an operation like this you call it something Remember operation desert shield remember operation desert storm Nobody was like the so-called. No, it just was Usually military operations. This one's called epic fury. It's a great name Is the media mad that they're calling it that? I saw something earlier where the media I think it was a FCC chairman Brandon car who we're gonna have on this on this program soon. Hopefully, but I'll play that sound by coming up He said 9% Is what is what the belief is in the the legacy media the people watching you listening

9% trust the media 9 So why continue to do things that are that are running people off I saw something else where talk radio as important as I believe it still is and I'm so glad that a lot of you are listening and and tune into this great station It's being surpassed by podcasts People decide what they trust what they believe and how long they'll believe it good news for you I'm doing both radio and podcast. I'll continue doing this for as long as they'll let me but um When you're losing trust you have to change something When you're losing the ability to hold an audience you have to change something for some reason the legacy media Continues to be like dad 9% were good If I had a 9% approval rating and what I do for a living I would have been off this show a long time ago The fact is whether you like me or don't and most of you do thank you Love You know that I'm going to bring you the facts I'm going to back it up with with how I attribute it and where I got it And then I'll give you my opinion after that The legacy media doesn't do that and one stark example is how they're covering this

This is an outrageous how landish in a good way success And you should be starting every newscast with the success stories, but they're not I'm sure they're starting the newscast with How many died and and how this is a unprovoked attack and blah blah blah and how much it's costing and all this and Pnex has no good If I hope they don't wake up it literally gives me a larger swath of audience the more they keep screwing up like this I hope they keep on acting like people like James Talleriko are normal and not lying every day I hope they do because then people are going to turn to me so I can tell you exactly what he's lying about So I can tell you exactly what's going on in this in this operation this military effort that's going on in Iran A33 Joe Pags A33563 7247 Joe Pags.com your thoughts about this military operation so far now that it's 11 days in Are you good with it? Do you like the amount of transparency? Are you agreeing or disagreeing with with the legacy media saying A33 Joe Pags A33563 7247 Joe Pags.com by the way

We won't get into the save America act with Senator Roger Marshall and again, he's a doctor senator doctor Senator Roger Marshall we talk about that at length But yesterday Mike Davis came on this program from the article free project and lit up the GOP lit up John Thun You got to go and check that out. It's you're up right now on YouTube Joe Pags.com Slash YouTube Joe Pags.com slash YouTube will take you right there or back after this You're listening to Joe Pags I Great to have you thanks. I appreciate you stopping by you saw the jump in oil prices and gas prices And it past couple of days. There should be going down and it makes me think Because I had a pretty long drive today, so I probably couldn't have not gotten gas today

Right, but it makes me think maybe maybe you put in $10 today and then see what's going to happen tomorrow Because I'm almost guaranteeing tomorrow or the next day you're going to see a a massive drop in gas prices now I do ask Daniel Turner from Power the Future some call that fun fun with energy. What did I call it earlier? And he called power the future. Hey, look at the energy. I think hey, look at the energy.com. No power the future.com When I had them on I said listen, why is it okay? That the oil with the gasoline they put in the ground have my local gas station is It would cost X amount when they put it in the ground It literally was the station bought or the company bought that gasoline from the distributor And they paid a certain amount of money. Why can they raise or lower the price once it's in the ground Said is you know, it's like if I had a car to sell Not that I'm ever going to sell a car. I keep talking about it. I never do Um, I had a car to sell and I posted on Craigslist and I posted for what the price could be in 2036

And the guy or gal buying it would be like why would you possibly think you could price it at what it could be Well, I'm just speculating. I'm speculating about what the future looks like. It's a futures market. It's a commodity It's a car and they mean no, I'll give you $500 But but you go to the gas station and believe me the gas that I put in my car today Probably was in the ground when it was 250 the other day But yet I paid 319 today I find that to be patty unfair at the same time. I want more regulation. So What I like about what this president did was immediately he said Look at how high the oil prices when he didn't say to himself like Biden did Let's release the strategic petroleum reserves And let's deplete that so we can artificially lower the price Trump said let me make some guarantees Let me give some assurances and insurance to those who are using the straight of her moves And let's see the gas price plummet again, which is exactly what it did It did it because he took that action Very very smart move by him

And again, you're gonna go and get some gas maybe pop five or ten dollars in today and wait a day or two and see what's gonna happen I'm helping out your economy. Listen. Listen to her brother because the gas price of the oil prices dumped very quickly a33 Joe Pags a335637247 Joe Pags.com. Stay right here Joe Pags
