SOUNDING OFF

SOUNDING OFF September 11, 2025

Covered by Gary Kaltbaum on Investors Edge today. Will get back to the strong markets tomorrow.

Today is the anniversary of 9/11. Like most of you, we know exactly where we were at the time. We know exactly where we were standing or sitting. We know exactly what we said. We know exactly how we spent our day. We are stunned that it has been 24 years since. 24 years have gone by and we are still trying to fight the good fight against evil that is still obviously out there and unfortunately out there in droves. When you have time, go read the stories of firefighters going up as everyone was coming down. What heroism! Go read the stories like what Howard Lutnick did for the families of Cantor Fitzgerald.

We did not know Charlie Kirk. We never met him. But over the past few months, only because they showed up on an Instagram feed, we would watch videos of him. Just like most that are out in the public eye, we agreed with him on some things and disagreed with him on other things. This is what we saw in the videos.

We saw a man sitting in a chair at colleges, bringing people up to the microphone who dislike him, who hated him, who berated him and cursed him out. Some of them cursed him out viciously. He sat there and took it. He would then ask questions and then would debate them on his beliefs versus their beliefs. He did it calmly and quietly without shouting. Imagine…healthy debate on some vital subjects of the day.

Unfortunately, we are quickly seeing the downside of certain people who are again praising cold blooded murder. Unfortunately, we are seeing the downside from some in the media that just can’t help themselves. Tic-tac-toe. You can never win so why even play the game. They will have to live with themselves.
