Rick Santelli has been known to call the baby ugly when needed. During an epic panel discussion around the motives and intentions of President Trump’s trade reset, Santelli gets passionate when describing the valid reasons for Trump’s tariffs.
The CNBC panel, mainly Steve Liesman, tries to downplay decades of the working-class being diminished by economic panel, and Santelli was having none of it. Video prompted, WATCH:

Rick Santelli was great during the Mortgage Backed Securities/Wall Street Bailout/Housing Bubble back in the 2000’s, too.
One of the Very. Few. who told the truth on the MSM.
Santelli was a RonPauler back 15 years ago…he’s won of us (misspell intended)!
Don’t worry, President Trump is implementing shock treatment, that’s exactly what a good economist would do. Just keep fighting inflation, don’t let corporate america raise prices.
Make corporate america work to keep prices down or lose their ass! – they won’t be getting subsidized this time!
They’re not going to be able to sustain monopoly prices in the environment President Trump is creating rapidly, this is our last big hurdle against the idiots.
This will be easier than the election and take less time, it will also come naturally to all of us – just only buy what’s necessary (that’s a good way to live your life anyway: “only what’s necessary”), and think out of the box to find better products at cheaper prices, and if you’re not satisfied with any of their crap use your imagination and do without.
This is a philosophical, theological, patriotic duty, – our last big fight – Hurrah!
He’s a gem
If there is a “father” of the Tea Party…
It is Mr. Santelli.
Some things…
We just don’t forget…
Great part is that there’s digital records of ALL of it…
Like SD producing the “receipts”… Of which there can be no dispute…
We all are on the same page…
Can anyone even comprehend what could be accomplished if someone of Rick Santelli’s intellect had access to, say, $1B…
Cash…
I don’t know how many times I have to repeat it…
“The works were finished from the foundation of the world.”
God

Fear not
A Santelli rant about taxes that went viral is widely attributed to be the spark that started the Tea Party movement.
I did not know that…thanks GE
The fake pandemic and subsequent installation of a fake President and fake war was manufactured by the same globalist cabal who are apoplectic over the tariffs.
Nothing is off the table.
You know he’s right on target, by how loudly they howl..
Total pro-Globalist pile on in the YT comments, too!
Absolutely correct. The commentators on YT are not dependent on domestic production or engage in services or money manipulation to make their living and don’t give a damn about America’s overall economic health. Their ego is wrapped in their own selfishness and not in the function of a healthy economy that spreads the wealth to all. They want to remain on top of the heap of others that are beneath them.
Notice how every MSM Fake News outlet has their lone “conservative” personality?
This is why the MSM is still relevant. Their funding does not come from the audience which they seek to mislead. NWO psyop targeting the mob they detest and seek to control. The Trump Admin would probably benefit more if they did not continue to appear on these MSM platforms which only exist to engineer a false narrative on behalf of a dystopian NWO agenda.
I always wonder who hates the Mockingbird media more me or you my friend? (Mark Dice is excellent on exposing the Fake News CIA media)
BRACE YOURSELVES!
(MAGA Mark Dice on President Donald Trump’s Tariffs to save America)
I dont hate the media, I hate Fake News pretending to be the media possibly even more then they hate me.
That’s exactly what the Mockingbird media is my friend.
Watch this its all about how the CIA runs the media (which the Council On Foreign Relations manages for the CIA)
Operation Mockingbird: CIA Control of Mainstream Media – The Full Story
WikiLeaks Expose: Council on Foreign Relations Controls Most Mainstream Media in USA
https://janataweekly.org/wikileaks-expose-council-on-foreign-relations-controls-most-mainstream-media-in-usa/
What about Reuters ?
I believe they are not an American news agency, but do have field offices in the U.S.
The only time I watch Democrat media is when it appears on the Treehouse and even then I rarely make it through an interview.
watch out for the Republican media. Much of it is hosted by Con Inc and they know what we want to hear..
That’s why the Council On Foreign Relations membership list is so important to look at because it exposes the Uniparty Hegelian Dialectic having top Republican & democrat members, as well as Corporate CEO’s and Media members and executives. Big business, government and media together, isn’t that the definition of Fascism?
Yes it is. So what do you think the Trump strategy is for continuing to appear solely on these fake news psyop channels to spread his message?
To me it is a double edge sword;
-On one hand Trump can take advantage of the MSM expansive reach to send a clear message in his own words to the dumbed down masses. Emphasis on dumb.
-On the other hand not only does it continue to assist in keeping these outlets relevant, it allows the professional narrative engineers to manipulate, twist Trumps words, and lie to whoever is watching. And we have to realize whoever is watching is probably already stupid as it is.
President Trump does not exclusively appear on these mockingbird networks, he will go wherever invited.
Blogs, news shows, CPAC events, anywhere he can to get his message out.
When I say Trump, I am referring to his administration which is all who speak on his behalf. Just look at every post on CTH and virtually all are presented through official MSM channels which comes with the unavoidable narrative engineering.
The message being sent is that these networks are where to go to get the news so they remain relevant.
There doesnt appear to be much of a un-biased main stream alternative to go to.
OAN? I cant remember the last time I saw a OAN sourced news video on CTH.
There are a number of White House sourced videos here which I like the best.
I believe he’s using their own CIA media against them to show how they lie as part of his campaign to destroy the Fake News . Here’s why.
I had to stop watching.
I refuse to watch the MSM even on CTH. They can go pee up a rope.
Kybeagle: You said it, so I don’t have to, although I’ve said it many times before.
There are a lot of anti-Trumpers in the alternative media concealing themselves as “conservative” when in fact they are anti-populists and working to undermine and demoralize MAGA.
But the Babylon Bee says tariffs are dumb!!
Honestly, alt media can’t help itself. Their anti-Trump underpants always end up in full view.
And CNNs talking heads have hotter mics so Santelli’s got to shout just to come close to their speaking volume. Nice trick.
Good point!
The director may be ‘potting down’ Santelli’s mic 🎙
Thus, it looks like he’s ‘losing his cool’ when he has to answer loudly.
Yes – a neat trick, ain’t it???
Make the loony leftist look like the calm, sober one…
While making the fact/truth-based conservative look
Loud, and mad.
CNBC
They really hates us, don’t they.
A lot of major milestones were fake before Trumps first term. I want the subprime mortgage file, the 9/11 file and the Clinton file.
I would say O’s BC but everyone knows where to find that.
Many years ago I used to watch CNBC, Santelli was the only tolerable member. I’m surprised they didn’t fire him a long time ago.
Joe Kernan is MAGA
Without the injection of 5 trillion dollars during president auto pen, this would have happened years ago.
Now it’s time for Main Street to thrive.
If you are in top 10% and too stupid to sell into bonds, cash or gold, then you are too stupid to have such wealth in the first place.
Those who are not wealthy, and never interact with those who are, think the wealthy MUST inherently be smart,…but they forget about Madoff.
Many have inherited wealth, and advisors that protect them from their stupidity, and use their wealth to minimise the damage…and many, like a one trick pony are only smart when it comes to making money.
President Trump, Lutkin, Musk and the other BILLIONAIRES PDJT has gathered to him, are not one truck ponies.
Mark Cuban, got lucky, is really a dummy.
Exactly. And, many of them just figured out how to game the system, thats there one and only talent.
There’s a big difference between cunning and smart.
Plenty of rich people are cunning, ruthless, manipulative. Only some are actually smart enough to look ahead of the immediate situation. Even fewer are wise enough to do what is right instead of what is most lucrative.
I agree with his points. I wish he were more skilled at articulating them. His points belong together but his presentation seems disjointed. All in all not bad.
The thing is, all of the gaslighting in the world, can’t overcome the fact that “thevproof is in the pudding”.
The naysayers can scream at the sky, and chicken little all they want, but events are going to show, fairly quickly that President Trumps policies with taruffs, lowering energy costs, etc. are going to turbo boost the economy and lead us into a golden age,…or not.
The changes he is making, to “the new world order” are so stark that they really can’t be spun into something other than what they are.
President Donald J Trump is also on a campaign to expose and hopefully destroy the Langley run and Council On Foreign Relations managed Fake News media. They are responsible for a large part of helping to try and destroy our country.
That’s why they want to replace us with people who are illiterate in their native language, so the gaslighting will work.
ha!
In the vid, same people who were for the Wall Street Bailouts last time around, are for the pro- Globalists this time around.
Whocoodanode?!
Liesman…lol
His face said it all, as did every one else’s.
“None so blind as those who refuse to see”
I think the day will come when they’ll be forced to admit President Trump was right, if only to themselves.
“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.” – Upton Sinclair
Macron told/suggested French corporations stop selling to the U.S., and was told to stuff it, lol.
Let them sell their overhyped wine to Quatar or the UAE…..ooops. Ok, Senegal and The Congo.
What the screamers pretend to not understand is that a company can have operations in France and sell to France, the EU, and anywhere else in the world that makes financial sense.
But if it doesn’t make financial sense to eat the cost of the tariffs to get your products into the USA or the company knows that their product won’t sell with the tariff added to the price of the product, then that company can open up shop in the USA (and still keep their French HQ), hire Americans, and sell to Americans. Unless, they have are in a monogamous relationship with France then they are free to set up shop in the USA.
I believe he was primarily telling them not to INVEST in the US! Re: large multimillion $ projects that were being planned.
“Santelli was having none of it.”
Things went way to far as it is. The Uniparty had us fighting each other (R) vs. (D) for decades while they laughed to make “campaign contribution” deposits in the bank
Santelli’s rant on air in early 2009 is credited with giving the Tea Party the boost it needed to coalesce.
Of course, the Tea Party was reviled by the GOP Establishment and especially Mitch McConnell who did all he could to kill it.
Market is not based upon fundamentals anymore…it based upon politics…
It is manipulated by leftist Wall Street firms tied to the Democratic party…and amplified to their buddies in the Media who are in on the scam…
Covid…a prime example…millions and maybe Billions made on short positions spreading rumors about how C-Vid was the death of all…Johns Hopkins study…millions will die as a result. These clowns were all in on it and once a bottom was attained…rode it up in long positions.
Recently Look at Tesla…lefty’s create a topic…bad man Musk… and short the stock…leak it to their lefty’s in the media crating a firestorm and ride it down. Look for them to ride it up on Long positions soon.
This downdraft is all political…look for a rally up of at least 5,000 points in a day within the coming weeks…
Markets have always been based on emotions.
There are those who use fundamentals…..those who use charts (technical analysis)….and those who just react to “the news”.
This past week’s crash has been 90% emotion influenced by politics.
Market will go back up sooner or later. Nice buying opportunities right now 😎
In another lifetime, I worked as a statistical clerk for an investment advisory firm that had chartists – oh my gosh, that was 49 years ago.
We had a Dow Jones wire and a ‘Quotron’ – you could tap in the NYSE alpha code (3-letter) for any publicly-traded company, and get the latest stock price on a small calculator-size screen.
High-tech stuff for 1976!
Yep! Bulls make money, Bears make money, pigs get slaughtered. Don’t be a pig.
People whose portfolio went up 200% in the last 5-7 years howling about a 7% drop. Screw ‘em.
Its a 30% drop.
dow 45k down to dow 38k is a 7k drop = about 15% down or about the same as it was in March 2024. Sky has not fallen, this is a market manipulation to create panic and drive out the weak hands.
Nike was one of the first Corporations to go to Chima. Steve Prefontaine’s (from Oregon) coach came up with the running shoe using a waffle iron for the mold of the sole. Had that Company stayed in the US then they wouldn’t be taking a digger on the stock market today. Nike made billions on slave labor in China, as has hundreds of Businesses founded in the US. The workers lost their jobs and livelihoods.
The market is nothing but a Ponzi scheme anyway. The market always drops faster than it rises. This enables the insider traders to sell (high) before the crash, then buy cheap after the retirees and small investors are washed out.
In the 90’s, GH Bass, preppie penny loafers and loafers with tassles…quality leather…offshored to somewhere in the Caribbean.
And, those long-wearing Bass leather shoes began to fall apart -literally!
BASS BEGAN GLUEING THE SOLES ON, INSTEAD OF STITCHING THEM!
I LITERALLY HAD BASS SHOES DISINTEGRATE AS I WAS WEARING THEM! FELL APART AS I WAS WALKING! THE SOLES JUST SEPARATED FROM THE REST OF THE SHOES, AND I WAS WALKING BAREFOOT!
As if on a timer, all the Bass shoes I had bought did the same thing!!!
AND, the Bass shoes with soft, synthetic soles (even the ones I had never worn – still in the boxes in my closet), literally had the soles “MELT” and turn to sticky GOO!
Texas Rancher: Same thing has happened to me, multiple times, even with “quality” US boots, such as Carolina Brand work boots. I did my own repair and glued the soles with Shoo Goo. It works for a while, but, eventually, my glue job will fail. Once, I literally “walked out” of the soles on a pair of fairly expensive hiking boots. A few days ago, I glued the soles on a pair of Magnum military-style desert boots (made in China, dang it; one day, they will simply fall apart).
My best-made boots are Wolverine 1000 Mile Boots, which are Made in USA, with Goodyear welts and stitched the soles.
Check out Danner Boots, too. The still make some models in the USA.
Redwing still carries some American-made boots, have to search for them.
Two store chains in the Midwest that carry a lot of boots are Blain’s Farm and Fleet and Theisen’s Home Farm and Auto.
I bought a pair of Army Surplus (Viet Nam era) jump boots in 1978. Green Canvas uppers, black leather lowers. The 3/4″ soles have been replaced twice. I stepped on 16d many times and bent the nails. Made in the USA…Built to last.
Aggiegirl,
In High School and college all us preppies were wearing Bass!, (1966-1974 for me!)
Now preppies are all about Sperry boat shoes and have been for very long time now.
Bass did what they did and reaped what they sowed! I didn’t even know they were relevant in the 90’s?
My kids were all into LLBean and Sperry.
No sympathy for Bass.
God Bless you and All Treepers friends.
Same timeframe for me. Bass was the shoe we all wore. Loved it when they started coming out with colors. I still have an old pair of my husband’s. We half soled them when needed.
All the well-to-do/preppy girls at my high school in the early 80s wore Bass clogs.
I cracked up when he used Nike as an example.
Your observation about Nike and other businesses and ‘slave labor’ has never been fully presented to the public by the bought-and-sold msm.
How many chinese companies have ‘suicide nets’ outside upper-story windows… so that desperate workers won’t die, when they fling themselves to what they hope is a final escape from their hellish lives??
Our President may not only be helping America – but perhaps also throwing a monkey wrench 🔧 into the horrible working conditions found in some other countries.
Great point BB.
Bamboo was used as high rise scaffolding through the eighties and early nineties in China. Lots of fatalities. The value of human life was meaningless in China then. I imagine things haven’t improved that much.
Rick, great job!
That guy sure is excitable. No matter his substance, it’s knocked out by his sounding so hair-on-fire unhinged. Not a good spokesman at all.
Not everyone can be as gifted as Stephen Miller. I am just thankful for anyone on MSM standing for the truth and eviscerating Globalism.
Which is why they have him, representing “the other side” so they can SAY they are giving balanced coverage.
Did you ever notuce how they will have a spokesperson for the conservative side, not in studio, but “joining us” from a remote location?
And, did you ever notice how they invariably have problems with their ear piece?
Thats cause the technician wipes it with a rag, sprayed with silicon spray, just before he hands it to them.
He invariably looks like an idiot, as the damn thing won’t stay in his ear, and he can’t really respond to the discussion. But it looks like they were fair and balanced.
If he/she is in the studio, they will leave them alone in the green room, with booze, in case they are a closet alkie and take a few shots to steady their nerves,..
Good observation!
Going waaay back -Kennedy-Nixon debates:
“Nixon looks sick – focus on him sweating – and that
5 o’clock shadow!”
“Pull back and show him shifting his feet”
(Nixon was suffering from phlebitis in his leg at the time of that first debate)
Meanwhile, Kennedy – who truly was not a well man (no matter how much the msm talked about his ‘youth’ and ‘vigah’)
Looked good, visually.
Viewers of the televised debate said JFK ‘won’… listeners on radio said RMN ‘won’.
Initially JFK was to be the Dem candidate in ’64, and Goldwater the Rep candidate.
They discussed renting a train, and going across the U.S. by train, stopping at various big cities and having debates.
Having both been in the Senate, they knew and respected each other, and neither intended to escalate in Viet Nam.
After JFK was physically assasinated, and Goldwater was politically destroyed, they had Barry sit in on the Warren Commission, just to insure his silence…
“From Lincoln to William McKinley to Theodore Roosevelt, and from Warren Harding through Calvin Coolidge, the Republican Party erected the most awesome manufacturing machine the world had ever seen.
And, as the party of high tariffs through those seven decades, the GOP was rewarded by becoming America’s Party.
Thirteen Republican presidents served from 1860 to 1930, and only two Democrats. And Grover Cleveland and Woodrow Wilson were elected only because the Republicans had split.” Pat Buchanan
Why Is the GOP Terrified of Tariffs?
https://buchanan.org/blog/gop-terrified-tariffs-128840
Pat Buchanan – a prophet without honor in his own country.
Miss his columns.
Maybe he wasn’t always right – but he was ‘right from the beginning’
Ty BB. He was on getting us out of NATO early on and his insights on Putin and Orthodox Christian Russia, and the wars against the Serbian people where he was literally the only one telling the truth was courageous to say the least. We know how right he was on Free Trade, immigration, and the cultural war. I really wish he was writing now as he was always a huge PDJT & MAGA supporter with excellent insight and knowledge.
The United States can now be the low cost producer.
With low energy costs, low shipping costs, low taxes, and robots.
Plus new work for workers for repairing the robots, building the factories, building the energy infrastructure to support the factories, shipping and trucking the goods from the factories.
We can even be the low cost producer for clothing manufacture.
Carnegie Mellon has a new robotic loom. It can sew all our clothes, instead of desperately poor people in overseas factories who are being exploited.
Bring all the factories home.
The tariffs should stay high until they all come home, and even after they come home, to keep them here.
It’s a new world of global trade.
MAGA
There is not one thing on Temu that cannot be made here by American industry, from velvety area rugs to tin signs to silicone oven liners, from embroidered dog collars to mini chainsaws to siphons, from ceramic candleholders to fishing reels to sweaters to playing cards and folding stepstools—-because we designed all of that stuff to begin with and continue to create the things that are then copied cheaply offshore to sell back to us.
These pathetic libs worrying about foreigners losing jobs. No one cared about our rust belt and our farmers. These people make me furious.
We SPEND more than any other country world.
Spending does not equate to wealth.
However, when the gov’t spends its called an investment. Yeah right, see USAID for more info.
Santelli is arguing with ignorant squawking chickens who are just happy to be fed and sheltered every day without having to worry about where their food comes from, or what it costs and they are oblivious to the foxes circling their henhouse.
And that the slaughterhouse is right next door.
Liesman. What a troll.
“Let people buy things made in America. Period.”
Amen

You actually have some great info in your posts I always wondered what country you are from and this is not in a negative light. Many of the Orthodox Christian countries have great insight and real news that never reaches us because of the London-Langley control over most of the cucked “Western World” which they are intent on destroying with economic, cultural,demographic, military warfare.
Just a guess, dianwong is from the east,..you recall for some time we had a commenter posting from behind the bamboo curtain?
A2 was her screen name, IIRC.
I really miss her posts,and agree its great to have commenters from around the world.
Just cause we oppose globullism, doesn’t mean we don’t want a global perspective, lol.
Yes. It was A2
I remember A2’s posts. Her comments were very insightful and added depth to the conversation.
TY and I agree Dutch. I was just thinking of the old days when there were many Rhodesians,South Africans, Serbians,Russians etc around, at least in my circles
Sum ting up … Engrish much this century?
How many languages do you read and write in?
About five. Why do you ask? Also, do you lack a sense of humor, or not? Also – are you a simple thinker, or can you consider something 2, 3 or 4 different ways or on the same number of different levels? I’m just curious here, having met ‘all kinds’ in my life here on earth.
I did not think it was respectful to the other commenter here.
Your comment gave no indication of humor.
Jim is an arrogant A-hole in 5 languages.
He said “ABOUT” 5.
Let’s stick to the facts here 😂
Not being sure makes me wonder, especially since we have 8 fingers and 2 thumbs to count on.
IMO that was a poor comment from someone that purports to think so deeply at so many levels.
Oh well.
I have had my share of being misunderstood while texting.
Santelli makes the point I made in the other thread. Trump’s saying that the tariffs are for the federal government to get revenue is just a negotiation tactic and he would be happy if things were made here and therefore no tariff revenue generated.
Yes. Scott Bessent said that recently. The tariffs are incentive to move businesses to the USA. Combine that with cheap energy, reduced regulations, 15% corporate tax rate, and easy access to the biggest consumer market on the planet make a very compelling reason to set up a business in the USA.
Bessent said that as tariffs fall because businesses choose to open up in the USA then the business taxes will increase to compensate for the reduction in tariff revenue. Plus, Americans have great paying jobs and are happy, healthy and spending money while not paying income taxes.
Yes and no. In the short term, its to drive manufactuerers here, for jobs and economic growth.
But, its also to break up the EU, and encouragecregime change thru elections, of the individual countries of the EU, with generous trade deals with the new N/P Govts
Long term, he recently confirmed what I have been saying for some time.
For leverage in negotiations with other countries, on a variety of issues having nothing to do with trade.
For instance, to “sweeten the pot” he tells Iran if they give up nukes, they can have a good trade relationship, with low tariffs…
See the whole board, ..
Meditations on Tariffs and Health care…
I am wondering about the health care industry as many hospitals utilize products from a company called “Medline” (headquartered in Northfield, IL). Most of the syringes and other plastic products with their name, are made in China by Chinese manufacturers. And have reported quality issues that even the FDA is aware.
So if made for Medline, in China by a Chinese company…and sent to the US, are they tariffed?
If so…and other products…?
Will we see the price of health care go up (again)? Not to mention our medicines…China could shrug their shoulders and say “Ok”…? Just a tad concerned for our medication supply in the hear and now plus early future until things settle…I could see a hold up, using and depleting our “national stockpile” or not being able to update it when medications within it, expire.
I think that some enterprising business can probably open up a syringe/plastic company fairly easily in the USA. PDJT has mentioned many times that ALL of our medical supplies and medications need to be made in the USA.
The company has 43,000 employees globally according to its website.
Made in China, by Chinese company for medline, yes they are tariffed.
Plastic injection moulding companies are plentiful in the U.S.
Medline isn’t going to China because there is no one in the U.S. that can make the products, they are going to China because its CHEAPER.
Once the tariffs raise the price, they will shop around and begin purchasing in the U.S. to avoid the tariff
The mark up on medical supplies is outrageous!
Have known/know several people in the business of selling …and every one of them is VERY wealthy.
There is much room to to cut costs to consumers if manufactured in the USA.
Their contempt is contemptible. Reminds me of the picture Sundance posts where they look at the picture.
Another person who sees the big picture clearly — someone who has been treated horribly and who I admire greatly for standing his ground on behalf of all of us — is the former Apostolic Nuncio to the United States of America, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò.
Here’s a link to the transcript of his recent address to the “Eurasia and Traditional Values: The Challenge to Globalism” conference.
Viganò knows what’s really going on. He speaks the unvarnished truth. God help us in this critical period of humanity’s war against the globalists.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/04/archbishop-carlo-maria-vigano-address-eurasia-traditional-values/
The Vatican has excommunicated him.
If Vigano was the pope, I would seriously consider converting…
Ranger Rick!
Hilarious listening to them complain on behalf of foreign companies and foreign consumers.
If it weren’t for the lopsided tariffs, the rest of the world’s consumers could be buying more American made products.
And the way they all blow off slave labor in China and elsewhere is appalling.
I remember a previous Santelli break-down of things, using the phrase the people are ‘taxed enough already’ a few years back; from which the tea party emerged.
I believe it was Santelli rant that launched the TEA party back in 2010.
yes!
Jaguar Land Rover pauses US shipments while it figures out a plan for Trump’s tariffs-
UK-based Jaguar Land Rover says it’s pausing shipments to the US after President Donald Trump imposed a 25 percent tariff on passenger vehicles and other auto imports. The pause will be in effect this month, the Associated Press reports. While the full impact of the tariffs remains to be seen, analysts have said the move could ultimately drive up the cost of new and even used cars.
“The USA is an important market for JLR’s luxury brands,” Jaguar Land Rover said in a statement to AP. “As we work to address the new trading terms with our business partners, we are taking some short-term actions including a shipment pause in April, as we develop our mid- to longer-term plans.” JLR has 340 dealerships in the United States with an estimated 30,000 employees.

Sorry, but the whole article is a damned lie. ( Yes I am steamed today) Jaguar is not building anything to send. They have shut down their entire production. I thought it was already ended, even earlier than expected, but I will leave it to someone else to fact check that.

OK. Land Rover still builds. To late to edit.
No problem! It’s kind of a cult brand. Here’s a short video of a 2025 V8 525hp.
Land Rover sold 94,000 vehicles last year.
My son bought a new Land Rover Defender in December. There are 30 dealership in California. The one in Newport Beach is huge and has 200 employees. He loves the vehicle, CET. 😎

Tell him that it’s a lot like loving a woman.
It’s going to cost more a looooot more.
Dang! Now I’ll have to decide between Rolls or Bentley!
Anyone who can afford a Land Rover isn’t in the 50% Scott Bessent is talking about, and can probably afford the price hike anyway.
Those reporters taking Santelli on are a perfect lesson exercise into how to observe people pretending to not know things.
Pretty sure the only reason Santelli hasn’t walked out on these jokers is because he really does care and wants to make sure his viewpoints can still be heard, by those who are starved for hearing the truth of things.
4:20 mark : The info babe says 41% of S&P 500 firms revenue comes from a broad….. Couldn’t tell what she actually meant, 41% comes from her? Whatever.
But she acts like that money goes away. If we rebalance trade, should it not go up? Good grief, I can’t watch this garbage.
The main take away from this segment is that the media doesn’t give a ***** what happens to you or me. They have to take care of the hand that rubs their hind end while the rest of us go under.
To hell with everyone of these creeps. They are all Adam Shitfff, every last one of them.
Rick Santelli reminds me to read or listen to the article (and later book) by Angelo Codevilla.
“The Ruling Class: How They Corrupted America and What We CanbDo About It” was also read out loud on Rush Limbaugh’s show. I remember that and knew Rush was serious about it.
Santelli is a very noticeable breath of fresh air wafting through the stench that is CNBC. The only reason to watch CNBC or go to CNBC.com is to see what losers like Liesman, Sorkin or Quickie are spouting off about so one can get a good sense for the lies being told to mom-and-pop investors. Those three in this segment showed how they’ve completely sold out to corporatist interests like cheap whores.
Joe Kernan is MAGA and a patriot. Good old boy from Cincinnati. Been at CNBC since the early 90s when he and Mark Haines did Marketwatch

That means he’ll get a hero’s welcome from St. Peter.
Ty for your excellent posts to me during one of our recent discussions on the War against the Orthodox Christian Serbian people.
And that link to that Fleming essay was gold. Napper Tandy is a hero of mine. He was a friend of one of my ancestors.
Colkitto: have you read anything by James G. Jatras?
This article is from several years ago.

NO but I tagged it for later. Ty friend. You have some really great sources and insight

Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying of DarkHorse podcast, have a new video today discussing the tariffs. I’m still watching but it is interesting.

I support Rick on this one. I’d have been more impressed with the panel (any panel) and their concerns with government intrusion in the market if they’d voiced that same amount of hand wringing when it was other governments doing the intruding, to our detriment. But as long as we can get our designer clothes cheap, and have cheap access to all the gadgets and do dads other countries make, who cares if the American worker has to “learn to code” just to feed his or her family…some of these people sicken me.
The post-war Bretton Woods structure could only end in one of two ways: with the collapse of the U.S. and the rise of global governance, or with a massive correction and reassertion of U.S. dynamism. And Trump has decided that Old Glory has a few good years left in her yet, and I say good for him!

Here is the joke of these elites. Across the local, state, and federal governments – the people of the US collectively pay almost 10 trillion dollars. Not only do we almost pay 10 trillion in taxes collectively, we also suffer massive inflation annually which increases the cost of living regularly. All of these elites screaming “free markets” and classical economic theory can absolutely shut their mouths. 600 billion isn’t going to hurt anyone. In addition, this is an obvious gambit to renegotiate and get to a better place for the United States. These idiots want the US to immediately turn and run and seem to be cheering on our adversaries to retaliate back. I don’t give one iota about the several 100K I have lost in funny money. My country is too important. I am not selling and I am in this for the long haul. Weak hands won’t win this war.
“decades of the working-class being diminished”
EXACTLY.
Their ultimate goal?
Get RID of the working/middle class and end up with 1% uberwealthy and 99% serfs.
WEF 101. There kind must not rise again!
True to the name “Lies man.” The US political game is making us terminally ill. These partisans are binary: nothing an R does is good and nothing a D does is bad. Are we stuck in this zero sum cycle forever?
Wake up world,Bye bye globalism and all the accompanying nonsense.Individual countries will now have to adapt,innovate and be responsible for their own backyards.
Impoverishing the US and others by empowering,growing and enriching a
communist giant to the decline and detriment of your own country and people has been a disaster.
Best thing I ever did was stop watching CNBC…but I always check out Santelli clips. Lefty Leisman is disgustingly predictable and just about always gets properly schooled by Rick.
He would be more effective if he would stop screaming…
Gotta love his last line! “Let people buy things made in America, period!”
Steve Lies man has been a hardcore globalist shill playing his role on television since before the global financial crisis. I bumped into Steve at a concert in Brooklyn about 20 years ago and he’s a small slob in person. It all fits.
Oops, replied before seeing your response… 😉
Gotta give Santelli kudos for not just calling Liesman (He Lies Man) a dumb SOB! 😉
None of these people know what the heck they’re talking about. Let Trump cook. Everyone else watch the master and learn. Experts are experts at nothing. Only the wise know what to do because the rest are a bunch of fools.
The definition of an expert: former drip under pressure.
I had a teacher who used to say “an expert is anyone who’s 30 miles from home”.
Yes!
Trump doesn’t work by himself he has a loyal team, and they are getting it done to his specifications.
Right. Read last night that most of these “experts” were in their early 20s when Donald Trump first began describing the trade imbalance and what needed to be done. He’s been planning this for a long time. Deep State Crooks kept him too occupied during the first term to implement the MAGA plan.
Theu have not taught economics properly since the 1970s. Nothing about the gold standard, Bretton woods or special drawing rights let alone plung protection team, what Bernanke really did to save the banks or the monopolistic way global trade really works for the big corporations. we had a trust buster POTUS once before. that is what Trump is doing busting the global corporations, some affectionately call them globohomocorps.
