[English]

Trump threatens 100% tariffs on

foreignade movies. Okay. Foreignmade

movies. Here's CNN talking about the

story. Go ahead, Rob.

Now taking on the film industry in a new

way. In a social media post just moments

ago, he wrote that he will be imposing a

100% tariff on, as he put it, any and

all movies made outside of the US. He

also said California has been hit hard

by movie productions moving outside the

United States. And you, this may sound

familiar. He did start threatening this

back in May. It seems that he's now

moving towards it and for years

filmmakers have been leaving Hollywood

for destinations outside the US

including UK and Canada in order to

lower costs. Several big movies of

recent were produc produced by US

studios shot outside of America

including Deadpool and Wolverine,

Wicked, Gladiator 2. Thing about it is

the president did not say when or how

the tariffs would happen. So stand by to

stand by on that.

Stand by standby to stand by on standby.

Uh, President Donald Trump said in the

truth social post on Mike Brown, okay,

good idea, bad idea, Tom, what's going

on here? You look happier, but what a

good or a bad idea about what happened

with some movies.

So, I think this is a good idea because

I think what Trump is saying, hey,

multiple states are giving tax

incentive. Georgia gives you them,

Florida gives you them, um, Texas will

give you them, uh, Washington's got a

lot of editing in, uh, um, Vancouver

area. So Trump is like, "Hey, make the

movies here in the US. Make them here in

the US." There's all these places to

make in the US. Even if they're trying

to get out of California because of the

unions and things that are happening

that you've seen, Vinnie, you've

personally seen it. Everything from

comedy shows, and I don't mean like on

location comedy shows where you're, you

know, you're in New York at at some

classic comedy place. So you're filming

it there, of course. I'm talking about

just doing, you know, live HBO comedy

jam or doing it live, getting out. And

what Trump is saying, look, American

jobs, American manufacturing, make

movies in America just like washing

machines.

I think that is the angle. That is the

real message here. Now then, here's

where I feel weird about this. I love

the fact that like the Last Bond movie

was shot on location and you can see

that it's Croatia and it's not CGI and

it's beautiful. There's places all over

the place to go. And so I feel kind of

weird. I'm kind of weird about that way,

but I understand what he's trying to do.

They're kind of treating it, you know,

like, hey, make make your washing

machines, make your appliances, make

electronics here in America American

jobs. I get that part, but there's a

part of the creative side I think you

got to give him grace.

Yeah, I think Trump is just throwing

this out there to make waves to kind of

make a point. I don't I don't know if

Trump truly on his list of, you know,

you talk about his top agenda, 20

things. If American Movies is on this, I

think this is the first time that he's

implemented a proposed tariff on a

service rather than a good. Everything

is goods, goods, goods, goods.

Everything the manufacturing, this is a

service now. Uh I don't know. I think

that maybe he throws this out there just

like many other tariffs in many other

countries. It's a negotiation tactic and

then you meet somewhere in the middle. I

think it'd be great if all movies were

made in America, you know, made in

America, but that's not the reality of

it. Like you gave the James Bond

example, like certain places they're

going to we're going to need for the

movie to have actual uh like the proper

scene, the proper vibe. You might need

to go to New Zealand or you might need

to go to Italy, whatever it is. Uh I

think

Lord of the Rings was shot all in New

Zealand.

Exactly. So I think this is a threat

that he'll eventually tamper down and

meet in the middle. But if we know

anything about Trump, he throws a

grenade out there, see who reacts, and

then he kind of takes it from there. But

uh

but I think I think they should they

should do something like at least a

50/50. Like if you're going to shoot

five of them there,

we want you to shoot five of them here.

Like because the the the job market in

Los Angeles for all the people that are

working on movies and everything, bro,

on sets and drivers and everything, it

is it is bad, bro. It is really, really,

really bad.

I'd love to know what Gavin Newsome

thinks about something like this. Does

he want to keep jobs in California?

Gavin Newsome is becoming pro oil

because he wants to run for office.

Kevin's got a bigger problem to deal

with. But

when it comes down to creative,

I am a little bit more

uh uh you you got to you got to Yeah.

You got to let you got to creative go do

do where they want to produce the movie

and then encourage some states in

America that want more movies to be shot

there. Give better benefits.

Period. By the way, some people may not

want that. Some states are like, I don't

want Hollywood to come to my state. No

problem. You pick and choose what values

you want to build on.

Last night was a great night. The

Yankees beat the Reds out. Okay, notice

one person not clapping. Okay, and that

is none other than Tom Ellsworth. So,

here's what we want to do with you.

Here's what Look at that. Look at that.

Look at the look. Zoom in on his face.

By the way, I want people Can you zoom

in on his face? Zoom in on his face and

tell me everybody in the group text last

night was texting back except for one

guy. And the one guy who didn't respond

back was this guy. He says he doesn't

have hate towards the Yankees.

I believe he does. Having said that, the

pitcher of the Yankees yesterday pitched

a

lights out

12 strike. You know, he hasn't pitched a

12 strikeout. Not in a minor leagues.

Not this is the first time he does it.

Lights out. Great stuff.

But here's what we like to see. For some

of you guys that are Dodger fans, you're

from LA and you're on Tom's side. We got

the Dodger blue future. Looks

brighthead. Check this out. Look at the

timing of it.

What a sick hat that is. By the way,

whether you're a Dodgers fan or not,

that is legit one of the sickest blue

colored Future Looks Bright hat we have.

But if you're a Yankees fan, folks, we

also got the Yankees hat.

The navy blue future looks bright hat.

So, here's a contest we're going to be

playing.

We're going to be watching to see which

of these two is going to get more love.

Now, Yankees Tom was upset cuz Tom said

people in LA are sleeping, Pat. Yankees

fans are up.

Yeah, we are.

But but listen, California is one of the

biggest viewers of the podcast. So Rob,

we have to find a way to put the links

of both hats there. Folks, if you're

searching it, you could put navy hat.

It'll come up. And what's the other

hat's title? If somebody is searching

this or they want to find it, it's royal

royal hat. You type in royal, but both

hats are colors. Maybe you're somebody

that's kind of like, you know, you're

you're neither the Yankees or the

Dodgers. Some of you guys may be

watching this. You're pirates. You're

ready to go after the ump.

Some of you guys are like, "Where's

that? Give me the I want to go find that

man. I want to go chase that man. I

don't know if you guys saw it or not.

They were chasing. Did you see that

afterward? Oh my god.

They chased the

They're holding the Pirates players back

from destroying this ump

because of couple bad pitches that that

Cubs obviously.

Yeah, it's done, guys. Next year is a

robot.

Yeah. Yeah, it's true.

Well, we're going to see what's going to

happen. If you enjoy this video, you
