The Financial Guys are back with another packed roundtable, diving into today’s most pressing topics, from the awaited release of the Epstein list and the political fallout surrounding it, to the New York City mayoral race, Trump’s border strategy, and how tariffs are shaping today’s markets. As always, it’s an episode that mixes financial insight with no-nonsense political commentary, and with all four hosts in studio – you don’t want to miss this!
Trump’s Border Policies: Then vs. Now
In one of the most heated segments, the conversation turns to Trump’s border policies. They compare Biden’s largely open-border approach to the current administration’s stance. With Trump in office, there have been close to zero illegal border crossings, and the tides have turned so much so that there are accounts of people self-deporting! This is the change that America needed, strong borders are not only about national security but also about preserving resources, jobs, and safety for American citizens. The roundtable agrees: without border enforcement, everything from healthcare to public safety is at risk.
Tariffs and the Market: Who’s Paying the Price?
The roundtable closes with a discussion on tariffs and their ripple effect on global markets. The Financial Guys break down how tariffs — from China to Europe — are impacting consumer prices, supply chains, and investor confidence.
They note that while tariffs are often criticized as a hindrance to trade, they can also serve as a powerful tool for protecting domestic industries and promoting fair competition. The challenge, they say, lies in finding the balance between protection and prosperity.
Pam Bondi and the Epstein List: Accountability on Trial
The hosts call out former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi and her once outspoken stance on the long-awaited release of the Epstein list. The hosts highlight Bondi’s calls for transparency and justice, noting that her actions haven’t matched her words.
The team highlights the lack of media coverage and accountability, inquiring why specific names are overlooked while others dominate headlines. The takeaway? The American public deserves the full truth, no matter who it implicates.
NYC Mayoral Election: Chaos, Crime, and Voter Fatigue
The conversation then shifts to the upcoming New York City mayoral election, where Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani face off in what the roundtable describes as a lesser of two evils vote. The hosts examine how rising crime, a strained public transportation system, and the city’s soaring cost of living have eroded the city’s quality of life. They ask whether New Yorkers can handle the socialist reforms impending from this election and what that means for safety going forward.
