Trump Says He'll Choose Fed Chair Who Wants to Cut Rates
CC-Transcript 00:00Love them to resign if he wanted to. Agent done lousy job. Look, if you were there, you'd say, well, you know, the United States is doing well. They have no inflation. And if they do get inflation in a year or two, we'll put we'll start raising the rates. We get rid of the inflation, you know, do other things. Biden had the worst inflation in the history of our country. 19%, but I think it was much higher than that. Frankly, they say 19%. I said I think it's a lot higher than that. And we have almost no inflation now. We've done a great job in a short period of time. Energy prices are way down. Gasoline now is down to close to $2 in a lot of places. A couple of places I see it even broke. It's like 198 a gallon. We've done a great job on inflation and honestly, pretty much everything else. I think that I think it's very sad the way people act. You know, you have a guy in there that with the stroke of a pen, could lower interest rates and save us hundreds of billions of dollars a year. But he's a stupid person. You know, it's very interesting. He. I'm not sure if he doesn't understand it, because you should be able to understand it. It's sort of one on one economics, but I'm not sure of that. But think of it with the stroke of a pen, he talks about costs we can save. $600 billion. Maybe even these are nice numbers for you, right? $900,000,000,950 billion by lowering interest rates. And it's really just more of a paper movement. It's not like you're not cutting anything. You're not cutting jobs. It's just interest rates. And we're number 40 or 44, number 45, some places that you wouldn't believe that. You know, I don't want to be disparaging, but they pay a lower interest rate than the United States of America. And without us, everything blows up. You know, we sort of control the world in that sense. But we have a guy that's just a stubborn mule. And the stupid person that is making a big mistake is making a mistake. And it lasts for years. Because when you do the debt now, I've instructed my people not to do any debt beyond nine months or so. Get this guy out and whoever is in there, it will lower rates. If I don't if I think somebody is going to keep the rates where they are or whatever, I'm not going to put them in. I'm going to put somebody that wants to cut rates. There are a lot of them out there. And I said this morning, a lot of the business shows today were saying, you know, Trump is right. He should be cutting rates. Think of it. We have a great country. We're making a lot of money, would take it in billions of dollars in tariffs. We have one we have $15 trillion of money that wants to be invested here, which is a record in two months. It breaks any record that we've ever had for a whole year and not even close 15 trillion. And it's going to be much higher than that. That's after essentially two months because, you know, we've been doing it for about two months, two and a half months, $15 trillion breaks, every record in the book. There's never been anything like this. We have factories moving in, we have car plants moving in. We have everyone wants to be part of the United States. And as I told you and I said to everybody when I was in the Middle East, the king of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, all great leaders, they've all great leaders, all three of them said, you got the hottest country in the world and you did it. And at that time, I was there for four months. We got back a little while ago, but everybody says not only them, but we have the hottest country in the world right now. The only thing is we have a Fed chairman that is he doesn't get it. And you could have substantially lower like if we cut him two points would save more than 600. Think of it, more than $600 billion just because you cut. But you can't go out to the market and say, well, we have a guy that's got us at 4% or four and a half percent and we want to pay 2% or 1%. I think we should be paying 1% right now. And we're paying more because we have a guy who's suffering from, I think, Trump derangement syndrome, if you want to know the truth. But he's not good for our country.

Bhagyashri Borse Replaces Sreeleela In Akhil Akkineni's Lenin

5 Rockstar games that got canceled before release
Image Via SynthPotato's X Rockstar Games boasts a legacy of developing some of the most groundbreaking and immersive games of all time. But not all of its in-house projects did make it to store shelves. Rockstar quietly canceled some of its more ambitious games over the years, some almost finished. Here are five Rockstar games that were canceled prior to release, including a zombie survival game and a canceled GTA 5 expansion. 1. Bully 2 Development of Bully 2 was supposedly started immediately after the success of the first. A playable prototype with around 8 hours of content was developed, and the world was estimated to be close to three times as large as Bully. Years of development later, Rockstar quietly dropped the project. It is still one of the most-wanted sequels of all time among fans. — SynthPotato (@SynthPotato) 2. Project Z Well before zombies became a gaming phenomenon, Rockstar had an internal project titled Project Z. Based on a Scottish island shrouded in fog, the title included fuel scavenging and constant zombie fending. The idea was innovative for its time but never made it beyond the early development phases. 3. Agent Originally unveiled in 2009 as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, Agent was being developed as a Cold War-era stealth-action game. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed!

GTA 5 Expansions Rockstar initially conceived of having five single-player expansions for GTA 5, such as a zombie-themed "Norman Episode," an alien invasion sci-fi, and a Liberty City crossover game titled LibertyV. The most advanced among them, the Trevor-based "Clifford Episode," later became GTA Online's Doomsday Heist. The others were canceled as priorities went entirely to online games. 5.

Based on 1960s England, it dealt with street battles between Mods and Rockers. Originally scheduled for PS2 before being shifted to Xbox 360, the game was ultimately canceled before it could take complete form. Hidden behind Rockstar's high-gloss blockbuster franchises are a number of intriguing games that never reached the public. Whether in the form of a zombie survival idea or overdue sequels, these axed projects are part of Rockstar's forgotten development history, and fuel interest in fans to this day.

Lenin: Akhil Akkineni's next with Sreeleela delves into the dark space of honour killings
Akhil Akkineni recently made headlines as he married his long-time girlfriend Zainab at a private ceremony in Hyderabad. He is currently on a break and will soon resume the shooting of his new film Lenin, which is being directed by Murali Kishore Abburu and also stars Sreeleela. A fan of Sreeleela? Stream her films, Pelli SandaD and Skanda on OTTplay Premium Post the debacle of Agent, Akhil Akkineni has chosen a rustic action drama. Two schedules of the film have been wrapped up, and we have come to know that Lenin is based on the subject of honour killings. The film is a period drama and is set in the Rayalaseema region. It is about a specific temple in a small town in the Rayalaseema region, and Akhil plays the role of a man from a backward community, according to sources. Though the story sounds a bit dated, the makers say that Murali Kishore has given a different spin to the screenplay. Akhil has undergone a makeover for the film and has taken classes to learn the Rayalaseema dialect. He will be seen in a mass avatar for the first time in his career and has pinned a lot of hopes on making a comeback. Akhil's dad and star hero Nagarjuna Akkineni and noted Tollywood producer of films like DJ Tillu and Jersey, Naga Vamsi, are co-producing the film on a moderate budget. SS Thaman is composing the music, and his background score for the teaser impressed one and all. Lenin is director Murali Kishore Abburu's debut film, and he is under a lot of pressure to deliver. But Nagarjuna and Naga Vamsi have shown faith in him and are fully backing him. This is the first time that Sreeleela is playing a village belle, and she too is excited about the film as it gives her a lot of scope to perform. The makers will soon announce the release date of the film at a special event.
