fifteenth trial and his obvious unfair prejudice against mister Trump. That's the Stormy Daniels case and that's coming up on April the fifteenth.

investment tips. I've got a lot to cover this morning. Let's get started
once again. This is Gene Valeraani reporting the Democrats on ethical political war against Donald Trump to interfere with the twenty twenty four presidential election and help President Joe Biden's bid to remain in the White House is fast approaching, and Democrat prosecutors will begin exercising their plans to circumvent the decision of American voters by using false accusations within the US Justice Department to interfere with Donald Trump's presidential campaign against Biden.
That's what they're doing. They're interfering with a normal election. First up will be Manhattan's Democrat prosecutor, Alvin Bragg's attempt, I should say, to resurrect the twenty year old Stormy Daniels miss demeanor hush hush money payment case where Miss Daniels black had blackmailed a blackmail against Trump to collect money from Trump, and they're going to use that by the Democrat prosecution to frame mister Trump of
committing a crime. Now, the hush money payment was made to Miss Daniels by none other than Trump's former lawyer who himself is a convicted felon the infamous Michael Cohen. You hear these names all the time anymore, and when you
stop and you think about this one, Trump's the victim. But Alvin Bragg, the Democrat prosecutor, wants to put Trump on trial and in jail by an all Democrat Manhattan jury before a Trump hating Democrat judge Jan Marshan, whose daughter has also worked against Trump, and for which the judge has placed a gag order on Trump for complaining about it. But wait, there's even more.
Also in the weeks ahead, the US Supreme Court is going to rule whether whether or not, as president, mister Trump, like all other presidents before him, has immunity from prosecution for challenging the outcome of the twenty twenty four presidential election. Others who ran for president have done it but never prosecuted for it, such as Hillary Clinton for examples, who wasn't Hillary wasn't ever elected president and she was still complaining about it. But if Trump complains about
it, well, we got to put him on trial for that. That's what's happening to our justice system, Ladies and gentlemen. Also on the agendas the case in Georgia. We're Fonnie how she wants you to pronounce her name, not Fanny but Fannie willis a local prosecutor and Democrat controlled Fulton County.
After being found out to be squandering taxpayer funds on getaway weekends with her boyfriend, will still be allowed to prosecute mister Trump for question the outcome of the presidential election in Georgia, as if nobody ever challenged the outcome of an election
before. Then Beyond the cases that I just mentioned will be the prosecution of Trump emanating from the raid on marro Lago where the FBI confiscated presidential papers to return them to the archive, something which has never ever been done to any former president of the United States and for which President Trump will eventually face a jury under the prosecution of Special Counsel Jack Smith, and something for which current
President Joe Biden did as Vice president, and for which he was not prosecuted
because remember he's too old and seen. Now, remember that how we have come to this state of affairs in the United States remains beyond me and many other Americans as well, but which is actually happening, and something for which has never been seen before in American history, as the Democrat Party in the United States keeps morphing closer and closer with each passing day into something more akin to communism or socialism, as does most of the American news media, which
continues to ignore the double standard of justice now occurring here in the United States. Now, listen to me. Everything I just reported is accurate and something which we all believed could never occur here in the United States. That these privasties of justice could occur here in the good old USA would have been unthinkable in past decades. Beget we see. We see them occurring now, don't
we. Obviously this shows how fragile our society has become, that laws are so easily twisted, just twisted, and how quickly our society can begin to come unravel. Because if these events can't continue to occur and remain beyond the reach of hard working Americans, then it must be used as a wake up
call and use to bring all of us to our senses. If we the people allow such things to continue unchallenged, then it's going to be our own fault that we have allowed America's foundation of freedom and justice to slip away so quickly. Because if we believe it or not, that's what's happening, ladies and gentlemen, And as unpleasant as it may appear, that's truly the bottom
line as we begin this morning's report. Now listen, here's something else in case you haven't heard about it. Monday afternoon, around one thirty or thereabouts, there's going to be an eclipse of the Sun. And while Southeast Texas is not directly in the path of the moon shadow plotting out the Sun as it passes above isn't you know, We're just not directly in the path, but we may be able to see a dimming of the Sun as the moon
passes overhead. It's going to pass above Austin, Texas at one thirty six, it's going to cross Dallas at one forty one, and much of the impact is expected in Central Texas's hill country, and according to experts, there's going to be a large The crowds are going to be so large all along the way, well in Southeast Texas. It may be a little dimmer outside for a few minutes around one thirty on Monday. Keep that in mind.
We'll be back with much more right after we send these important messagic your ways, So don't go away, be right back. We're just trying to turn a nickel into a dive. That's the bottom line. If you owe the I R S five thousand dollars or more, don't call an unknown eight hundred number. Instead personally meet with us to review your IRS problem. And if you want to pay the I R S nothing or less than you owe, we can set up a fresh start agreement with the I R S. We
can help you. Ladies and gentlemen can call us whole free at one eight six six seven two eight three six nine seven. We're just trying to turn a nickel into a dime. That's the bottom line. We will move now from them. We will move. People can't even boat that. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen you're listening to. That's the bottom line. You're weekly broadcast on k l THEI that tells it like it is. Hey, don't leave money laying on the table. You know, we also do tax returns
at our offices here in Beaumont, Texas. And if you could not work due to the COVID nineteen related circumstances such as illness or the need to care for a dependent or relative. You can claim those lost days of business for a tax credit and potentially get a refund for taxes that you paid way back in twenty twenty. Now that's all going to expire on April the fifteenth of
this year. So if you think you can, you want to refile, call us at four to oh nine eighty four sixty nine hundred, discuss your situation. We can file an amended tax return at our offices here in Beaumont to claim any tax credit that may be do you, and this is the self employed tax credit from the COVID pandemic. Keep that in mind, Special Prosecutor. Here's something else in the news. Special Prosecutor Jack Smith. Remember
him. He's the lawyer that Attorney General Mary Garland picked to prosecute former President Trump for storing classified records from his presidency at his home in mar A Lago, Florida. As all past presidents have done whenever they build their libraries, they can hold on to the documents from their administrations. Not Donald Trump, right, they want to prosecute him for doing that. This double standard of the law is just out of control. It's all part of the conspiracy the
Democrats have undertaken to prevent Trump from retaking the presidency. Anyhow, Prosecutor Smith is all upset because Judge Eileen Cannon in Florida, she's going to be the presiding judge in this case, is questioning how prosecutors are planning to present the case to a future Florida jury and has told Smith she's working on two scenarios as how it will be allowed to be presented as they try to convict Trump. Well, the courts went through the same argument about classified documents when former
President Bill Clinton left the presidency. I know they don't talk about that much, right, Well, Bill Clinton had classified documents, and the in Clinton's case, the judge said that Clinton or any other former president could retain classified records after leaving the presidency, so that decision has already been had way back when. And also a president, any president, has the authority to declassify records, which Trump said he did regarding the ones he had at Mara Lago.
Anyhow, this is another issue Democrats are upset about as slowly but surely the prosecution attempts to being thrown at Trump. See everything they're throwing it in seems to be falling apart. I guess well, I hope everyone knows these charges against Trump are all part of a coordinated conspiracy being carried out from within the Biden administration and is just dirty politics. And one would think, because most of them are all in for destroying Trump and supporting Crooked Joe Biden,
right, that's why they're doing it. If you've listened to this report in the past, you've probably heard me admit my confusion as to why most of the news media sides with the left instead of always seeking the truth. It would certainly be a bigger story if the media would fight for truth and justice,
but they don't, and that's just the way it is. Meantime, all the polls show Trump ahead and most of the battleground states, so it's obvious most of the public and a majority of the American public are aware of what's going on and is the reason many are supporting Trump. The primary reason. It is what it has always been, Ladies and gentlemen, and it it's the lyrics of an old country tune that used to be popular, and the lyrics that say there's too much month at the end of the money remember
that song. Plus, besides the economy we have this open border policy where the Biden administration is seeking to fill the country up with illegals and doing it on purpose to destroy the American middle class. That's why he's doing it. It's the Democrat's answer to building a two class society of the haves and the have nots. They literally want a dependent class majority easier to control, as
communists and socialists do in third world countries. Part of the plan is also designed to destroy the family structures we've known it since God created mankind, and
they do that. They do that by attacking morality in the family unit and encouraging lifestyles that would have shocked most Americans in decades gone by, like the Devil told Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden when he told them, the only reason God doesn't want you to eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil is because we humans would become as gods ourselves and be as smart as God. Well we see where that got us, don't
we. On the economic front, stocks continue to be depressed because investors have doubted that that is bringing inflation under control, and many believe the only reason the Fed has been slowing down raising interest rates recently is simply a political move to help Biden the Democrats hold onto the White House come November. Of course,
that's why Democrats are trying to put Crump in jail. And just like the Communists zoo in third world countries and in places like China and Russia, the goal of the Democrat Party in the United States is to put everyone in public housing and to eliminate the middle class and recreate American society into a two class system of the haves and the have nots. To be a have you've got to be a rich Democrat. And if you're just a regular middle class
American, well, they want to put you in public housing. And that's their plan. And you don't have to be a political scientist to figure that one out. I'm telling you, little by little, they're moving in on taking away your freedom. And we better wake up and smell the coffee, ladies and gentlemen. I'll tell you right now, if we don't wake up, they're going to take freedom away from us. I can assure you that.
Now here's something else to recently published news articles. The IRS is mostly focused on coming after middle class Americans with incomes below two hundred thousand dollars a year. That's the people they're selecting to audit. Remember Biden said they were only going to go after the rich, but IRS audits are only going to be after They're just going to go after the middle class. That's what I'm trying to say. All Right, I wish I had more time in this
segment, but trust me, things are not as they've seen. And they're coming after your money. And that's another thing that you have to worry about because your lob and spend too much time and having your taxes audited and they find little little items that come after you. That's what's going on. They're not going after the rich, They're going after middle class tax payers. Back right after this, we're just trying to turn ankel into a dime. That's
the bottom line. I want to invite our listeners to find out what a risk number can do for them. Visit what is My Risk Number? Dot com?

You're listening to that's the bottom line. You're weekly broadcast on k LBI. That tells it like it is. And you can listen to this report on Saturday mornings at six am and then again on Sunday mornings at eleven am on kl the Eye at any time you want by logging on on the disc on the internet and log onto.
That's the bottom line radio show. You'll find us there at this junction in the Democrat war against freedom and justice. The New York judge overseeing the April fifteenth upcoming trial wherein Trump is going to be prosecuted for allegedly making hush money payments to Stormy Daniels for her silence in an alleged affair with him, and we find the presiding Judge, Juan Marshand being anything but fair by putting
on more gag orders against mister Trump. This thing is just going on and on and on, and it's exposing Marshan to be a partisan, a judge, not a not someone who's looking for justice. Marshan did this in retaliation against Trump for making critical statements or complaining about the judge's daughter criticizing Trump in published articles, so they can do anything they want to do. Trump can't say anything back now. According to well known attorney Jonathan Turley, the judge
is going too far. For example, Turley pointed out that one time Trump attorney Michael Cowen goes on television every night attacking Trump, basically campaigning against mister Trump, and who, despite being a convicted felon, is going to be allowed to a prosecution witness against Trump. And yet the judge keeps piling on more and more gag orders against Trump for speaking publicly about the unfair pre trial
publicity prosecutors and the judge continue to display against him. Turley pointed out that prosecutors are pushing hard publicizing negative commentary against Donald Trump right before the upcoming election, and the judge is assisting them by continuing to issue gag orders against President
Trump. And they're, you know, they don't want him to talk about the issues in the election, and Turley said, whether they like it or not, the election is going to turn on the weaponization of the legal system against Donald Trump. Trump lawyers are appealing this April fifty upcoming trial date.
But you know, we don't know what's going to happen. So we don't have to be lawyers, though, do we We don't have to be lawyers ourselves to see how far the Democrat Party has swayed from its roots and as morphed into a party of wealthy socialists intent on squeezing out the American middle class that's most of us, and creating a society of the haves and the have
not. At this juncture in time, we see an anti American political party working hard to limit freedom and opportunities for middle class, hard working American tax payers. What's playing out now is an important chapter in the history of the United States as to whether or not we remain a free and independent people or
begin to decline into oblivion. How can any of us live to pursue our goals of achieving a better standard of living for ourselves and our families when the very government we are currently living under works to betray us from ever being able to achieve these goals, because that's what's happening. That is the truth, ladies and gentlemen, that's what's happening. Whether anyone wants to believe it or not. The Biden administration is working hard to change the United States into a
two class system of the haves and the have nots. Where do you stand within this phenomenon now occurring? It's a classic fight between good and evil within a country that operates under a two tier system of justice. That's where we have fallen at this point, one for the rich and powerful in or another for the rest of us. And that's just the way it is. And the sooner we wake up and recognize this, the better our odds for survival
will increase. But right now our odds for surviving or decreasing. Aside from standards of living and getting ahead, we see our society coming apart from within. How can a political party, for example, like happened last week, hold an Easter egg hunt on the capital grounds and insist on eliminating any religious symbols on the colored eggs they were hiding around the White House. We have freedom of religion in the United States, that doesn't mean we have no religious
beliefs. It means we have the freedom to choose how we worship God. It doesn't mean we can turn the country into a lawless society where immorality has equal standing with morality, But that seems to be the way we're going. Where would you choose to live in a good and just society or in a lawless and immoral society? Where do you want to live? Ladies and gentlemen,
No one really has the freedom to be lawless. But when the government itself is lawless and corrupt, then what chance is there for you and your family to live freely and to prosper. Evil flourishes where good men do nothing to prevent it. And this is why we have to have boundaries in life and have to respect one another. If we neglect that, we will no longer exist. It will be taken from us. And if they take it from us, I'm afraid it's going to be our own fault for not stopping
them sooner. And while there's still time to save our way of life here in the United States, we better do so, because if they can do what they're doing to a former president Donald Trump, you can imagine what they can do to a little guy like you or me, And if they want to come after us, what chances do we have to and up against it? All right, ladies and gentlemen, here's something in case you haven't heard
this little report yet. You know, Donald Trump forked over one hundred and seventy five million dollars to the state of New York after an appeals court lowered New York Securior Court judge and Goren remember him, he's the guy that ruled Trump owed taxes of almost half a billion for lowering his net worth on loan applications during his construction days. Trump paid off the loans, as you know, and the banks who made the loans were happy about it. They were
happy to lend him the money. But Democrat judges and the New York Attorney General, Letitia James, a Democrat, wanted to seize Trump's properties. But now she can't, well at least not for nowt So you see what's happening here right all that, even what they did on that matter was unconstitutional.
That's why the Superior Court in New York lowered the loaded from half a billion dollars down to a mere one hundred and seventy five million generous of them right, Investing money now for future use makes sense if you've already grown a nest egg and hope to retire with your nest egg intact and still keep growing those funds for the future. Now's the time to call us at Asset Growth Associates because when we're not on the radio, that's what we do for a living.

If you've been watching recent news, a few banks have had a run where customers panic and withdraw all their money at once, causing the banks to fail. If that isn't worrying enough. On January first, twenty twenty three, the Federal Reserve set a new low reserve trunch for net transaction accounts to six hundred and ninety one point seven million dollars, meaning that banks with net transaction account balances up to this amount are subject to a reserve requirement ratio of zero
percent. You heard me right, zero reserve requirements. Forget fractional reserve banking. How about z zero reserve banking? Why would the federal reserve create this environment of uncertainty? If this is a concern to you, and it should be, we can show you how to protect yourself and how to locate and utilize financial institutions with very real reserves, not zero reserves. Give us a call an Asset Growth Associates one eight six six seven two eight three six nine
seven. That's eight six six seven two eight three six ninety seven. You can also reach us locally in Beaumont, Texas by dialing four oh nine eight four oh sixty nine hundred. Give us a call. You'll be glad that you did. We're just trying to turn a nickel into a dime. That's the bottom line. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen you're listening to. That's
the bottom line. You're weekly broadcast on kl the I that tells it like it is, and this segment that we do each week is called the segment, and we offer ideas for you to listen to and consider on how to set money aside for future use in an investment program. And one solution going forward financially is to consider adding a measure of principal protection to your portfolio.
Now listen to me very carefully, ladies and gentlemen. The stock market goes up, the stock market goes down and spins its wheel, and you think you're getting ahead one day, but then you'll lose it the next day. But you don't if you open a principal protection account. Through our efforts and work at Asset Growth Associates, money in a principal protection account is protected from
loss by a market downturn. It's as simple as that. As we peer into the future, we might consider the old phrase to always prepare for the worst, but hope for the best. And a good way to prepare for the future financially is to be able to earn money without being exposed to losses caused by a market downturn or by government malfeasance. We all know over time nothing outperforms the stock market, but time is not a known quantity because there's
no guarantee as to how much time we have as individuals. When a person is young, times on their side. As we age, times running out and to suffer a financial setback at an older age means we have less time to make up for financial losses. But for those with money in principal protection, money is never lost to a market downturn, and when earnings are made, they're retained and added to the existing principle, where gains become part of
the protected principle going forward. When a person has money in a principal protection account, they are contractually guaranteed not to lose money, and when the account earns money, they get to keep the money without fear of losing it caused by a market decline. In today's political chaos environment, the stock market is one of the few places where money can experience an acceptable rate of return. But a stock market brings you risk. There's risk in investing directly in the
market. You know that at asset growth Associates you can earn market link returns without being exposed to market linked and losses. That's what we do here. We offer those types of account asset growth associates. When appropriate, we offer to incorporate principal protection into an overall plan as both a defensive measure as well as an opportunity to gather and gains and keep them. Now listen to me.
There is no perfect plan when it comes to investing, but depending on individual objectives and protection against risk, well, some are just better than others. A perfect financial plan offering security, liquidity, potential, generous yields with tax advantages are certainly worth taking a look at. Take the time to call us at Asset Growth Associates by dialing four oh nine eight four oh sixty nine
hundred. If you live in far away places, call us whole free one eight six six seven two eight three six nine seven, or go online go to Save my Retirement dot com, where you can schedule the time to visit us or learn more about the work we do by logging on to Savemyretirement dot com and why not also on to what is my Risk Number dot com?
What is my Risk Number dot Com? There you can answer a brief a series of questions and the computerized program we'll assign you a risk number regarding how to invest money, and then when you call us, we can use the formula in that risk number to put a plan together for you. That fits whether or not how much risk you're willing to take when you invest money. Maybe you don't want to take any risk at all, and you want to
be able to keep accumulating money and most importantly not lose that money. And don't forget with interest rates on the rise, they're creeping up a little bit these days. We can offer clients opening new accounts a guaranteed ten percent pickup in the first year. Because we can. You can get it. When you open a new account, the money you put in automatically gets a six
percent bonus coupled with the guaranteed current rate of interest in four percent. That means ten percent the first year, and then we can manage that account year to year as things change. It's worth taking a look at it. Ladies and gentlemen. These accounts are designed to grow over time and they're immune from market downturns.

within an overall portfolio. Principal protection accounts earn market link returns and they also offer fixed interest also in these accounts that to help you build nice, fat nest eggs without exposure to losses during market downturns.
