Starting point is 00:00:00 Today for Free For All Friday, April 4th, 2025, ladies and gentlemen, fresh off the plane from Washington, DC, we'll detail our day at the DOJ with Steve Bannon and Mike Davis and Julie Kelly and Miranda Devine and none of us were in handcuffs. That's right, as Donald Trump purged deep state actors from across the street at the White House, new job reports shatters expectations. Trump's economy is roaring.
Starting point is 00:00:31 Don't let the haters get you down. No, I mean it. Like, we're going to describe exactly what the resetting of the table looks like and the wealth transfer from the elites to the middle class and to the working class here in this country. It's the first president ever in our lifetime to actually follow through on that promise. Every president in my lifetime has said that they're going to bring back manufacturing jobs, said they're going to support the middle class, said that they're going to support working class and blue-collar Americans. And every single president has sold you out and robbed you blind
Starting point is 00:01:04 so that someone in Vietnam can get a factory job for 10 cents a day. And so that practice ends now. We're going to detail all of it. We've done a ton of research so that we can explain these things in a way that makes sense to us. And so hopefully it makes sense to you. Corey Lewandowski will be joining our program along with Tommy Tuberville and Congressman Jeff Crank. First time on the show. It's going to be a wild and rocking show. Let's go. My name is Benny Johnson, and this is The Benny Show.
Starting point is 00:01:32 We just redid our backyard. We don't have a big house, and we don't have a big backyard. We live here in Tampa. We live close to the studio. I want to be close to a studio and close to an airport so that we can do trips like we did yesterday. Just kind of like turn it around. Right. I wanted to live in a close where my wife would have lots of room to like walk with the kids and go to parks and things like that. And it just makes it easier to do business here. Someday, will we move out to the middle of a
Starting point is 00:01:59 mountainside? Yeah, definitely. For sure. Guaranteed. We will be getting like a farm in the middle of nowhere at some point. But right now, for the way that our lives are, this is where we live. And so the space that we have in our backyard, while I grew up like on a farm, like I think many people in this country like grow up kind of in the middle of nowhere on like a, you know, larger property is a glorious country. And having a yard is actually an American privilege. Go to other countries. They don't have yards, right? People don't have yards.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Well, ladies and gentlemen, we have a teeny little yard in our backyard, and now we have some beautiful trees in it thanks to Fast Growing Trees. Fast Growing Trees is an incredible company. It's an online nursery, and it helps thousands of Americans get trees and get plants. It's obviously good for the soul.

Starting point is 00:03:51 Offer, ladies and gentlemen, is valid for a limited time. Terms and conditions apply. Go to fastgrowingtrees.com for details. Okay. Yesterday we were at the DOJ. It was really fun. We had a panel on internet censorship. Panel looked like this. Had a lot of, this is us in, this is us in the, inside of the deep cell. You'll recognize some of the faces here. Let's just go through them. Actually, every photo you had up there is perfect, Klein.
Starting point is 00:04:19 So this is the panel. You have Miranda Devine, Julie Kelly, Steve Bannon. It's kind of like an episode of the Benny Show, honestly. This is like, this could be the entire, This could be like the full show, in fact, like lined up and they're on stage. We were talking internet censorship and we were talking about antitrust and how the left has used their corporatist power and their deep state power in order to censor and to kill our platforms, to demonetize, to silence. Here's Miranda Devine standing there in front of the Donald Trump and J.D. Vance portraits.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Miranda Devine, of course, the reporter at the New York Post who broke the Hunter Biden laptop story. The DOJ knew Hunter Biden's laptop was real. The FBI knew Hunter Biden's laptop was real and authenticated. Here we are in the building, and And well, they tried to cancel her. They they literally made it impossible to share her story. So it is a very much a barbarians at the gate moment, a conquest moment for us. Brennan Carr there as well, the director of the FCC. And here we are. Here we are, Steve Bannon and Mike Davis and I, and not a single one of us in handcuffs. Really remarkable that all of us are standing there as guests of the DOJ
Starting point is 00:05:36 and not as prisoners of the DOJ. Yeah. So that was the nature of the talk yesterday. MSNBC losing their damn minds. MSNBC is what was raging about this. Play this clip because it's fun. Know us by our enemies. And then we'll describe just one more little important note here. But she is a. Are they friends? Didn't seem like it. She's a crazy person. And anybody who doesn't believe it could just Google Laura Loom or crazy or just look at her X feed if they wanted to to get a sense for this. The fact that she is in the White House talking to the president fired a couple of people who are in his national
Starting point is 00:06:26 security council or support her support the national security advisor and that's how the country's being run you know and we do we have a fox and friends weekend host that is running the military so it shouldn't be that surprising but i i think that it is really just important to like marinate on that that the people with power in the white house or outside the white house are like these extreme fringe conspiracy theorists that have big followers online and that they can dictate they can dictate who is in charge of our country's security your family's security and just on this one other thing over the doj today they had a they had a briefing at the department of Justice, and it was like Bannon, Benny Johnson, and it was just a whole rogues gallery of loomer-esque weirdos that were like having a briefing at the DOJ about the politicization of our government.
Starting point is 00:07:16 So, you know, Justice Department, national security decisions are being decided by MAGA conspiracy bloggers. So this dude who crashed out working for Jeb Bush when he was running for president, remember Jeb with the exclamation point? Remember, please clap. This guy's name is Tim Miller. Not Tim Dillon in the script, ALX. You had me excited there.
Starting point is 00:07:38 I thought this would be a Tim Dillon clip. No, it's a Tim Miller clip, sadly. Tim Miller is a guy who's a complete sleazebag. He's regularly slinking and schlepping around turning point events and various MAGA rallies around the country. bug, rat, like crawling and scurrying around, begging to have people like myself or Laura Loomer or Steve Bannon take him around, right? He's regularly following me around at these events. These people are absolute cretins and they're in panic and they're in panic for a specific reason. One, he calls us a weirdo. Dude, I'm not on national TV wearing puka shell necklace, like wearing like your grandmother's pearls. So I don't, you know, whatever, whatever's wrong with this guy. I think it goes a lot deeper. Again, imagine, imagine tying your ship to Jeb Bush in 2016. Imagine that being like your big
Starting point is 00:08:40 thing that you did with your life. Obviously that's going to lead to mental issues. Obviously you're, that's going to like, that's gonna lead to mental issues. Obviously that's gonna like, that's gonna put you in a place where you're gonna wanna wear puka shell necklace on MSNBC and complain and bitch and moan and cry and whine and slink around our events trying to write hit pieces on us. The reason why I never engage with these people
Starting point is 00:09:02 and the reason why I'm laughing my ass off at that clip, and we're gonna talk about Laura Loomer and her work with the White House here in a moment. But what's happening here on two different fronts, but I guess on the entire global front, is a complete and total resetting of the world as we know it. MSNBC is sitting there on the outside complaining and screaming, raging at the sun, and they have no power. There was a time when an MSNBC segment could put your career down, but now they're the ones on the outside looking in, and it's us who are advising on policy, in fact. It's me and Bannon and Mike. Here we go. This is these are the people inside of the DOJ that are bringing forth the policy on what should happen
Starting point is 00:09:52 in antitrust with Google and Facebook. It used to be them dictating what was allowed. And it's a particularly glorious moment because you are beginning to see, whether it's on the economy with these trade tariffs and Donald Trump totally resetting the global order, or whether it's with us at the DOJ, you're beginning to see a total remaking of the world based on reality. And the reality is that we have an actual audience. MSNBC doesn't. Nobody knows who Tim Miller is. Nobody cares. Sure, maybe he gets an award from the Kennedy Center. Maybe he's invited to all the right cocktail parties after the White House Correspondents Association did it. Nobody cares. Show me your audience. Show me your real world effect that you are having. I can show you actual effects that Julie Kelly had. Let's look at this picture for just a second. I just want to
Starting point is 00:10:51 like not miss this point. Here's Julie Kelly. Julie Kelly, I can tell you this. She won't say it, but I can tell you Julie Kelly is personally responsible for thousands of pardons that were given to January 6th political prisoners. Julie Kelly was able to undo millions of hours of demonic man-hour work from inside of the DOJ, the building upon which we are standing right there. Julie Kelly personally did that. Mike Davis has sent, obviously, chills down the spines of many of these left-wing prosecutors and has personally advised on who to fire and where the rats are inside of the system. You see Mike Davis standing there, Miranda Devine,
Starting point is 00:11:32 one of the only journalists, in fact, dare I say, the most important investigative journalist in the country over the last five years because Miranda's work was so monumental, even though Joe Biden was able to rig himself into office in 2020. And we all know how nasty and awful that election was. Miranda Devine's work set the table for the destruction of the Biden family in office. Constant investigations, ongoing toil, horrors and embarrassments for the Bidens, ongoing lawsuits. It was like this pernicious, nipping, yapping dog that would have never been possible without Miranda Devine.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Miranda Devine and her reporting got us the 51 intel experts, and that put a mark on who President Trump should take out. He stripped these people of their national security clearances. He stripped these people of their ability to make money. He's made them anathema, a black spot, and now they're fleeing D.C. Of course, Steve Bannon, what else can you possibly say about Steve Bannon? The man actually literally took a bullet. All right, fine. Trump literally took a bullet. But Steve Bannon, in every way possible, took a bullet for the movement, was put on trial in New York. To my understanding, they're still trying to put the guy away he was held in contempt by nancy pelosi and because of steve
Starting point is 00:12:52 bannon's rock ribbed iron spine uh and the very building that we're standing in right there the doj you go back to the panel shot please because it's like so cool you have like the entire doj logo and everything behind us it's amazing look at this i mean it's like so cool. You have like the entire DOJ logo and everything behind us. It's amazing. Look at this. I mean, and the room was packed. It was really fun. Look at that. It's like, again, it's a conquest. We drink your milkshake. We storm the ramparts. We will take over your church and desecrate your idols, your pagan idols. Time to repent. Because of Steve Bannon and the work that Steve Bannon has done, where the building that we're in right now wanted to and did put Steve Bannon in handcuffs.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Steve Bannon was in handcuffs. The DOJ decided to prosecute him for refusing to comply with Nancy Pelosi's subpoena. Now, because of that bravery, there is an absolute, verified, ironclad path for Republicans to subpoena deep staters, the Biden family, and so on. And if they defy the subpoenas, we put them in prison. This is what they did to Bannon. And one more little word about Tim Miller and about MSNBC bitching and freaking out about us yesterday. You know, know us by our enemies. They have, what is this guy with, what is wrong with this guy in the puka shell necklace? Know us by our enemies. Like, seriously, what grown man? Dude, you're like pushing 50.
Starting point is 00:14:28 And you're dressed like you are trying to be a player in Tony Hawk Skater. It's really embarrassing. Like, grow up, man. Become an adult. But they don't have to, actually, because they live in a non-real world. They live in a totally astroturf,
Starting point is 00:14:44 inauthentic, fake world that's collapsing. MSNBC, which platforms this guy, is being sold for pennies. It's being stripped away. It has no viewers, no ratings. They've been proven total frauds. They're firing hosts left and right, cutting their, slashing their salaries. Why? Because they're not real. We're building something real right here. We're building something real on this program. And they hate it. And that's what I was there at the DOJ yesterday. I thank you. We took the day off, obviously, that we've taken some territory, we have to defend it. And so we're going to be doing a lot of this and a lot of fighting to ensure that we can have independent voices in this country. Now, I found it particularly upsetting and irritating that as we were sitting there talking about the censorship industrial complex, Elvis Chan, upon which we did our entire show on Wednesday, is still employed across the
Starting point is 00:15:46 street at the FBI. He's the guy responsible for censoring all of us. You know, these mongoloids, these people like Tim Miller and MSNBC, you know, these guys, they can't exist without censors on social media doing their dirty work for them. Because in a fair fight, we win every single time. Our audiences are real and authentic our movement is actually strong powerful and culturally relevant they are irrelevant and so they must have referees that rig the game in their favor to stay in business whether that's forking over millions of dollars of USAID money to our competitors like Politico. Or whether that's stripping our show of monetization and reach and the capacity to grow online, which is what they did.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Or just straight up taking ALX offline, which I talked about yesterday. ALX shared the wrong meme. And so they took our beloved executive producer, ALX. All which I talked about yesterday. ALX shared the wrong meme, and so they took our beloved executive producer, ALX, all the chat knows, the great ALX, they took them all, they completely, they deleted them from the internet. That's the power of these people and their evil monopolistic tyrannies.
Starting point is 00:17:01 And so this is what we were doing yesterday. This is what we were fighting yesterday. One final note, and then we'll move on. This is as American as apple pie. It's as American as tariffs. It's as American as having zero income tax, which is something that I'm also going to start pushing for. Oh, you got to put that up. Look at Brendan Carr. This is your FCC director here with his golden Trump pin. It's a golden Trump. Look at the pin he was wearing yesterday. Come on, man. All right. Golden era.
Starting point is 00:17:35 You know, over half the founders were publishers. They had their own independent media outlets. Half the founding fathers of this country, were either directly publishers or owned portions of newspapers, pamphlets, and so on. It was all independent and fractured. There wasn't some big corporate conglomerate. It was knit together by the freedom of speech and the freedom of press. That's, of course, in our First Amendment. It's first for a reason. The reason it's all the way up there was because king george tried to stop them tried to stop them from meaning tried to stop them from political cartoons tried to stop them from
Starting point is 00:18:11 like printing the free press and from being able to like you know start up a a youtube channel back in the day right obviously it's the same principles just accelerated through by technology it's the exact same and we had by technology. It's the exact same. And we had this woven into our society. This is like very, very American for us to have independent audiences and for us to be able to like speak, meme, ridicule our leaders. That is deeply and richly American. And we don't – if we don't practice it, we'll lose it. That's what this show is all about. That's what this show is all about.
Starting point is 00:18:47 That's what the founders were all about. And there's this incredible resetting of the table where guys like Joe Rogan are more powerful than MSNBC, Fox News, and CNN combined. It's just a matter of fact. He just gets more views. And that President Trump, instead of going and groveling on C-SPAN, President Trump went to Theo Vaughn and Andrew Schultz's podcast and like NFL podcasts, totally apolitical podcasts actually, cultural.
Starting point is 00:19:15 And President Trump won in all of those arenas. And then he won the presidency. And then they realized like we've totally lost the plot. We've totally lost control. And that's how important this very, it is fragile right now, very fragile but robustly growing movement is. Go to a college campus, touch grass, ask a young person like where they get their news.
Starting point is 00:19:37 They'll tell you YouTube or they'll tell you TikTok or they'll tell you like they will not say MSNBC. I promise you, you can go to UC Boulder, you can go to Berkeley and even those libs will not say MSNBC. I promise you. You can go to UC Boulder. You can go to Berkeley. And even those libs won't say MSNBC. They'll say independent creators. And so that's what they're trying to destroy. They're trying to destroy that lack of control because they can't do it. So they send Puka Shell Necklace Dude, you know, on MSNBC to try and, like, slander us. But it doesn't work. All it does is validate that we are over the target. All right. That's, uh, that's what we were doing yesterday. Thank you for, uh, allowing me sort of talk
Starting point is 00:20:12 through why it was so important to go to DC and why it's such an honor. We're going to keep working, uh, obviously with the DOJ on this. I want to talk about these tariffs because I think that they're, you know, obviously the stock market is taking a big, you know, a big dunk and a big dive right now. I have actually a really important, I have actually a really important graphic I'm going to send to you, Klein, I want to put up. And that bothers people, right? It's like something that has upset quite a few people and is leading to bad headlines. And so I want to like – first off, I want to put it in perspective, okay? So here, pop that up as fast as possible. Here we go. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Sorry, I didn't send this to Klein beforehand. Let's just put this in perspective, please. Here's your stock market crash, okay? This is what your crash looks like. Yeah, please, let's just have, can we please have some reality? Can we please have a reality check here? Like going down 2% or 3% in your portfolio,
Starting point is 00:21:22 calm down, okay? Like everyone calm down. Do you know that 96% of 3% in your portfolio, calm down. Okay? Like, everyone calm down. Do you know that 96% of the stocks in America are owned by only 8% of the population? The vast majority of this chart is making the 1% of the 1% filthy rich. Most people are being left behind. I'm not arguing for a crash in the stock market. I'm saying let's put this in perspective. And I am going to be a very muscular advocate for the reinvigoration of the working class in America and ensuring that my children and your children have a future to actually have jobs, careers, and life in this country.
Starting point is 00:22:05 If you travel through the middle of the country, the Rust Belt or the Midwest, you'll see how hollowed out it all is. You'll see how there is just nothing being built. You'll see how it's just a just a figment of days gone by. And it'll break your heart actually. And what we've done is we've traded this chart for towns in West Virginia and in Iowa and in Indiana and the prosperity of those towns. We've shipped everything overseas so that this chart can tick up just a little bit. Remember, 8% of the country owns 96% of the stocks. This is not something that is making the vast majority of Americans wealthy. In fact, it is actually hollowing out and becoming a massive – us having total free and open trade in this country and having no barriers to entry and having, in fact, massive incentives to offshore all of our industry and manufacturing. A total and complete fire sale by our globalist,
Starting point is 00:23:12 by our sickening globalist leaders post-World War II has led to abject and complete destruction. And you should unfollow, I never do this, but you should unfollow creators on the right who claim to be, you know, for freedom, who are sitting there advocating against this right now. Every president in our lifetime told us that they would fight for the working class, and not a single one of them did. They continued to pump our money, our treasure, our capital, and more importantly, like our socioeconomic fabric, the little quaint American town of Norman Rockwell painting, that doesn't exist anymore. You know where it does exist?
Starting point is 00:23:52 China and Vietnam. So that peasants there can make a dollar a day. And where does that dollar go to? Buying American debt. And American debt is atrocious, $38 trillion. It is the biggest threat to our nation and it happens because we don't build anything and because we don't have any,
Starting point is 00:24:16 no, no, you're fine, because we don't have any capacity to manufacture, create, or build here. And so President Trump, and while I'm not, don't let me do your taxes, you'll go to prison. I'm not an economic expert. What President Trump is doing with these tariffs, with the announcement of these tariffs when we were live for it,
Starting point is 00:24:39 what President Trump is doing is he's redoing the mortgage on the home. And this is the best way that I've been able, like, as I've been trying to synthesize this information, this is the best way that I can explain it. Most people have a mortgage and the vast majority of people have the cons, even the concept of a mortgage. We have very young companies. Some people at this company don't have homes, right? Some people at this company are buying homes right now, right? Everybody who works at this company generally is like in their 20s, right? They're trying to get their start in the American dream. This is like refinancing your house.
Starting point is 00:25:11 You can think about it that way. Let's say you locked in a mortgage at like an atrocious 20% mortgage rate. So you're spending double the price of the home just to pay off the mortgage, right? Because you don't have the money. We do this every single year as a country. What President Trump is trying to do is get that mortgage rate down. Now, this gets a little complicated because it has to do with 10-year treasury bonds and the cost of the interest on those bonds for the federal government. But this is one way that companies and countries actually invest in America is by buying American bonds, by betting on American futures.
Starting point is 00:25:50 The lower the cost of that debt, the faster America can actually begin to pay off its debt. It's like lowering the mortgage on your home. You owe all this money on your home. It costs you this amount of money to borrow that money, right? That's your mortgage rate. My mortgage rate, because I bought a house in 2021, is like 3%. But a lot of people buying houses right now, it's like 7% or 8%. And back in the 1980s, the mortgage rates were like 20%.
Starting point is 00:26:21 So it's like buying in an atrocious mortgage rate and being able to negotiate down. And this is ultimately the play that President Trump is making. These tariffs incentivize investment in this country, incentivize products being made here. They incentivize balanced trade with partners who don't completely F us over. Good example is there's a 15% tariff on every American car sold in Europe. There's a 2% tariff on every European car sold in America. That's why when you go to
Starting point is 00:27:03 Europe, you will literally see zero American cars being sold there. Zero. You'll see there's no such thing as American car dealership in Europe. It doesn't exist. But there's unlimited numbers of Japanese and Korean and European car dealerships here in this country. Why is that?
Starting point is 00:27:22 That seems very bad, actually actually for us and our people. That doesn't make any sense. We have great car companies here, what's going on? That's just a perfect example of the imbalance there. So is Trump resetting the mortgage on our house, balancing out our national debt, making our national debt much easier to pay off? Trump, if he actually, and now I'll ask for you to put this chart back
Starting point is 00:27:47 up, if he actually is able, if he's actually able to pull this off, there's going to be a hit in the stock market, but eventually the thing's going to actually roar. What's happening is the greatest redistribution of wealth from the elites to the middle class in American history. And people are going to have to start making their products here and engaging in fair trade here in this country. This is, of course, offset by massive news this morning that there is a monster jobs number here in the United States of America. I just want to set the table here. President Trump is making it very clear that he's not about to back off on this. You're going to build here in this country.
Starting point is 00:28:45 You're not going to use workarounds like going to Canada or going to Mexico to try and build your cars and then importing them free into America. No, you're going to do the business in America. You're going to have to make jobs here in this country. When was the last time you saw a jobs report like this? U.S. adds surprise 228,000 jobs in March. This is, by the way, beating the expectations of 150,000 jobs. Here's the news. Yeah, 228,000 jobs added in the month of March. That is better than an estimated 228,000. What's up, guys? You know I got a growing young family, four little kiddos, and the favorite activity is climbing trees right now. Luckily, I live in a neighborhood with lots of trees and parks, but we were doing our yard and we needed some trees, now.

The labor force participation rate ticking up as well to 62.5%. Average hourly earnings coming in bang in line with estimates on a month-over-month
Starting point is 00:31:06 basis, 0.3%. On a year-over-year basis, a little bit lower than estimated at 3.8%. Also want to point out the $228,000 that we got for the month of March compares with a revised number of $117,000 for the month of February. That is a downward revision for the February number here. Manufacturing payrolls at $1,000, private payrolls overall at $209,000. So, Maddie, all told here, it does look like unbound. President Trump is already winning. There's going to be short-term pain on what is a total and complete global reset. Perfectly explained here by White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. All of that manufacturing, all of that industry was ripped apart by our elites,
Starting point is 00:31:57 shipped to foreign countries, and then they sent us the bill. They said, you have to protect Korea, you have to protect Europe, you have to protect Canada. You have to protect Japan. We won't take your cars. We won't take your agriculture. We'll take away your steel industry, your aluminum industry, your copper industry, your electronics industry. All of the national industries that you need to be secure and successful as a country. So what President Trump is saying is, these are the injustices you have to remedy. This isn't just about moving around some lines on a ledger. This is about remedying the systemic injustice that says the streets of America are filled with
Starting point is 00:32:29 European cars and Japanese cars, but the streets of Europe and Japan have no American cars. This is about saying that the American steel industry, which once built and sustained the modern world, it is now a former husk of itself coming back now thanks to Trump's tariff. We have a massive crisis in this nation. And you can see it when you just look at the absolute data. Something needs to break. It's unsustainable where we're heading.
Starting point is 00:33:14 In order to control an empire, you have to be able to control your vassals. And America is an empire, and everybody wants to do business with us. is actually the vassal states extract as much wealth and as much treasure as they can from the super state. This has happened in the Roman Empire. This happened in the British Empire, led to the collapse of the British Empire, where the vassal states begin to squeeze the actual homeland. And after World War I and World War II, the reality is, and I don't like this reality, but the reality is, and I think this has been bad for our country, but the reality is that America became an empire, a global empire. And the Soviet Union couldn't really even compete. It's an American empire. It's unipolar. And as America begins to falter and weaken, as we begin to be incapable of making our own products, making our own pharmaceuticals,
Starting point is 00:34:12 growing our own food, treating our own people, paying for our own welfare state, going into debt, we become sick. And those countries that have taken the jobs and the treasure of this nation begin to squeeze us. They do that through tariffs. They begin to take advantage of us. What President Trump is doing is a total and complete resetting of the table. Listen to Marco Rubio explain. We're the largest consumer market in the world, and yet the only thing we export is services. And we need to stop that.
Starting point is 00:34:44 We need to get back to a time where we're a country that can make things and to do that we have to reset the global order of trade well the worst thing is to leave it the way it is forever i mean this is just can't continue we can't continue to be a country that doesn't make things we have to be able to make things to provide jobs for americans we that that's it it's that simple china is an example i mean it, it's outrageous. I mean, they don't consume anything. All they do is export and flood and distort markets in addition to all the tariffs and barriers they put in place. So the president rightly has concluded that the current status of global trade is bad for America and good for a bunch of other people. And he's going to reset it and he's absolutely right to do it is specifically china it is a
Starting point is 00:35:30 astonishing how much we import from china china has the toughest tariffs in the world china china has the most closed economy on earth the idea from the globalist twats who ran this country for the better part of the last 40 years for my entire life, was that if we just forked over all of our treasure to China, then they would modernize, become a first world country, and that they wouldn't become a dictatorship. Well, that's not true. They'd be an open and free trade society. Nope, they don't free trade with anyone. It is impossible to sell American goods inside of China. China is a total and complete export nation and an importer of other nations' wealth. That's their model. They're the only
Starting point is 00:36:14 competitor to America, and they were a third world, third world, backwater nation just 60 years ago. China didn't even exist. It was just a civil war, like a caveman, effectively, ancient civil war time. This is really like Nixon and a bunch of like globalists, kind of octopus tentacle intertwining, trying to like open up China because they thought they could control the world. They should have just left it at backwater. But they destroyed America in the process. And that was wrong. I was trying to actually have somebody to say that. It's beautiful to see people like Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett on CNN.
Starting point is 00:37:02 It's explaining this calmly and coolly and to describe like, what does America first actually look like in policy? Here we go. Bring your factory to the U.S. Yeah. And obviously with the cars, all foreign made cars imports are getting a 25 percent tariff starting at midnight. If half the cars coming into the United States are foreign made, that's hard to turn around overnight, as you know. So what would you say to people in the auto industry who are worried about that timeline and how quickly that could shift? Buy American. And what about American-made cars and produced cars that are being made using foreign-made parts?
Starting point is 00:37:35 Well, I believe the USMCA is exempt. Yeah, those that are compliant with this. Obviously, Canada and Mexico are not on here. A lot of these are not on here. A lot of these are our closest allies. They're exempt. So what else? What else you got?
Starting point is 00:38:04 If you look through the actual data on this, you'll realize that the country is very near fiscal insolvency. How are you ever going to pay $38 trillion in debt? That guy Scott Bessett, he's on there, he's Treasury Secretary. You have to understand like the 4D chess that's being played here. What these tariffs are going to do is they are going to weaken the dollar. They are going to lower rates.
Starting point is 00:38:22 There is going to be a massive, the dollar is insanely overpriced. That comes because of our open market and because of the tariffs on other countries. There's a swap that happens in currency when you pay a tariff. It strengthens or weakens, and a weak dollar can actually be a valuable asset
Starting point is 00:38:41 if you're looking to pay off debt. This is the 4D chess that President Trump posted this morning. And we take this very seriously when President Trump posts a piece of media that sort of explains where he's going. It's very interesting. President Trump posting like lip readers who are saying what, who are describing his conversations with Barack Obama. And he just sort of casually posts these things, right? As though like, yep, you got it right.
Starting point is 00:39:09 And this happened this morning, where it's kind of like a random account that isn't particularly popular. President Trump grabbed their content and popped it up. And it's describing what is 4D chess here. What does that actually look like to save America? Well, to save America, much like if you were to save your household
Starting point is 00:39:24 that has a 20% mortgage rate on it and you're never going to be able to pay off that mortgage, you're drowning in it, it's a bad deal. Donald Trump has a household to save here. This is about the national debt, and this is about our ability to actually reset the table and the landscape in a healthy manner to create economic health for the country. And so President Trump posts this. Let's let's go ahead and watch. And you know, I think this is Trump winking and nodding and saying, yeah, you nailed it here. Trump is crashing the stock market by 20 percent this month, but he's doing it on purpose. And this is why Warren Buffett just said Trump is making the best economic moves he's seen in over
Starting point is 00:40:11 50 years. Now here's the secret game he's playing and it could make you rich. So why is he doing this? To push cash into treasuries, which forces the Fed to slash interest rates in May. And those lower rates give the Fed the ability to refinance Trillions of debt very inexpensively. It also weakens the dollar and drops mortgage rates now It's a wild chess move, but it's working now. You're probably wondering what about his tariffs? Well, I'll tell you it's a genius play It actually forces companies to build here to dodge them It also forces farmers to sell more of their products here in the US to bring grocery prices way down.
Starting point is 00:40:49 We've already seen this with eggs. Now remember, 94% of all stocks are owned only by 8% of Americans. So Trump, he's taking from the rich short term and handing it to the middle class through lower prices. Want to know what America First policies look like? Here's the price of oil today. Check this out.
Starting point is 00:41:16 The price of oil has gone through the center of the earth. 2021 is the last time oil prices were this cheap. Expect gas to go to a dollar a gallon. Gasoline has already plummeted below $3, and that's the first time I've seen it that low here in Tampa. What does that do for all the cost of goods and commodities? Well, the price of gas is baked into all of that. The price of borrowing money is baked into all of that. The price of how much it costs to deliver the good to the United States is baked into all of that. In the near term, I think there's going to be some higher
Starting point is 00:41:55 prices on some things. I think in the long term, this is going to be the single greatest play for the American economy in our lifetimes. And the final thing I'll say on this before bringing in the great Corey Lewandowski is the trade. The trade is that I experience and you experience and we all experience some short-term pain in a 401k or in the market. Money's liquid. Man, losing money costs you absolutely nothing. Losing your country costs you everything. Option B is to preserve this country and to strengthen it and to put up walls around this nation to make sure that my children have a future and are not tax chattel for a globalist elite that view them as less worthy of a job and dignity than a Vietnamese
Starting point is 00:42:48 peasant, yeah, man, I'm going to take the second option any day. Please, I will gladly pay more for my iPhone. That is a very simple choice for me. There's plenty of plastic, pointless luxuries that we have in this country that ain't worth it. So I'm here for it, ladies and gentlemen. And I love, get me on the record, I love this wealth redistribution. That is actually what's happening right now. Joining us now, ladies and gentlemen, Corey Lewandowski, who is just one of the perfect guys to talk about this with because, well, he's locked and loaded at the Department of Homeland Security. He's a special advisor to the administration. And he's also somebody meant to be like a small American town.
Starting point is 00:43:55 I come from Iowa. It's the same thing. You spent tons of time in Iowa. Like you just you start you're starting to see like the American dream just sort of slip away. And this seems like the first time in my lifetime that president has gone out and said, no, damn it. We're going to, we're going to claw that back. And I love it. Look, Benny, we're at an inflection point. Let's not kid ourselves. For four years, our country has been destroyed. And I had the chance just two weeks ago to sit down with President Bukele of El Salvador. And here's what he told me. He said he came to the United States five years ago before he was the president,
Starting point is 00:44:27 and he couldn't believe the fact that when he went into Target, people could self-checkout. Because in his country, if you went to a store five years ago, there were armed guards standing out front, and the militia and the terrorists and the gangs would come in and shoot those armed guards
Starting point is 00:44:42 and then steal all of the products. So all the products were behind glass. Five years later, Benny, where are we in the United States? Our products are behind glass because people are going in and stealing them. The toothpaste is locked up. What a difference five short years makes in our country. So if we don't think we're at an inflection point right now and that leadership matters. We are sorely mistaken. You look at what President Bukele has done in El Salvador and made sure that that country is saving the lowest murder rate in the world now because of his tough policies.
Starting point is 00:45:13 And you look at what the four devastating years of the Biden administration did to this country. We have a long way back and it's going to be a tough road, but Donald Trump's going to get us there. Yeah. So there's short-term pain in the market right now, but there's also a jobs report that's booming. That's 50% more than the expected rate. And there's, I guess, mixed messages right now from an economic standpoint. I hate this style of reporting because it's all about macro trends and not micro trends. And I think that this is going to eventually be one of the most genius economic moves in the history of this country. But I, you know, the floor is yours. I just want to see a revitalization of the American dream, man.
Starting point is 00:45:56 Look, I had the chance and the privilege, and I say that to be with the president just prior to the Rose Garden. I was at the Rose Garden event when he signed these tariffs. This is something he's been working on for probably 40 years. And I don't understand if you are an American citizen and you're a patriot, why we think it's okay to be taken advantage of by every other country in the world. Why is it we don't use our might, our political might, our economic might to have parity and equality? And what Donald Trump has said is if you produce your products here in our country, there is no tariff. And he went through a litany of them. You saw it at the Rose Garden. He said, this country, boy, they're tough. China, they're tough. I respect them. Vietnam, they're tough.
Starting point is 00:46:32 I respect them. We've been getting ripped off for years. So let's stop that. And look, when we have a level playing field, the United States can compete with anybody. But the field has not been level. And we've heard from all these neocons for a long time. Oh, free trade, free trade. It's never been free. It's been good for everybody else. So let's have what we call fair trade. And what Donald Trump has done and the world is recognizing is we're stopping the ability
Starting point is 00:46:57 to take advantage of the American consumer. We're bringing those opportunities back home. Sure, maybe people are concerned because for the last two days, the market's been down. I get it. And listen, I'm a guy who's got four kids. We're going to pay for college and all those other things, Benny.
Starting point is 00:47:11 But here's the reality. And you said it just leading into the segment. I want to have a wall. I want to protect our country first. And my kids, as much as I love them and I do, they're going to have the opportunity to create their own path going forward, to make their own success going forward.
Starting point is 00:47:24 And what we do right now at this point in time is going to reflect for generations, not just days, weeks or months, but generations of this country in the future. What was it like going to that prison in El Salvador? I just it was amazing. See, it's amazing seeing some of the footage from in there. And obviously the secretary caught it like she always does, right? Because she does these incredible videos and the video in front of the gangland members there incarcerated was iconic.
Starting point is 00:48:00 It was like quite, it was quite a message, man. It was a very clear message, which is this is one of the tools in our tool belt. If you are Trende Aragua, you're 18th Street Gang, you're MS-13, and you're in our country illegally, we will find you. We will send you to El Salvador. That prison, it's incredible. It was built in six months.
Starting point is 00:48:18 It can hold 40,000 people. They're building another one behind it to hold another 40,000 people. And I asked the warden, how many flights have you had here? None, sir. How many escapes? Sir, nobody escapes here. Hey, when are these guys getting out? They're never getting out. We met an individual in that prison. He had a 458 year jail sentence for being a mass murderer. In the country of El Salvador, if you've got a face tattoo that says MS-13, they just assume you're a bad guy and you end up there because you are a terrorist. So let me be clear. If you're in the United States illegally and the president
Starting point is 00:48:54 has designated you as a terrorist organization, MS-13, Trend de Aragua, 18th Street Gang, you will go to El Salvador. You'll spend the rest of your life there. There is no path out. There is no path forward. And if you think you're a tough guy, wait till you show up down there because you'll be crying like a little girl. There's a judge named Judge Boasberg who's crying like a little girl, Corey. And he's crying today saying that he might hold members of the Trump administration in contempt for shipping out rapists and murderers to El Salvador, to this prison that you were at. Can you unpack that for me and your message to Judge Boasberger? You know, Benny, under a law passed many years ago, the Aliens Enemies Act is a law that Congress passed and a president signed. And as a matter of fact, when this was
Starting point is 00:49:44 implemented many, many, many years ago, the Supreme Court came in and said, this law is actually not even judicially reviewable. But what has happened is we've got these activist judges who determined that they would prefer that we keep terrorists in this country as opposed to send them out of the country. And so what we have been able to do is under Title VIII authority, we've been able to ship these bad guys, these dirt bags, as we call them,
Starting point is 00:50:10 out of our country to protect American citizens. Now we've had the opportunity, the converse of that is to bring some of the really bad guys back. Look, the killer of Sarah Root from Iowa, as you know that story, was in Honduras and we brought him back. We extradited him back to hold him accountable. We brought in some 29 guys from Mexico who we needed to bring back to hold
Starting point is 00:50:30 accountable here in the U.S. But these terrorist organizations, these designated terrorist individuals are either being sent to Gitmo or they're being sent to El Salvador to pay for the crimes that they have committed. And we've got a federal judge, one federal judge who thinks he has more authority than the president, more authority than Congress, more authority than every legal government organization out there. And it's really, really disappointing because I don't understand what the value proposition is of keeping terrorists in this organization. Look, Benny, I'm in Boston, Massachusetts, and many of your viewers know this, but my family was very close to the 9-11 victims because two of those planes came out of Boston. And so we lost friends that day.
Starting point is 00:51:15 To think that we couldn't scoop up and deport the masterminds of 9-11, the al-Qaeda terrorists, because some federal judge would have stepped in, would never have been heard of following the 9-11 terrorist attacks. But that's exactly what's going on here. We are being invaded from within, from people who want to do us harm. And this president has said, I will do everything in my legal authority to get those terrorists out of here. And I don't understand how the left think that it's OK to keep these terrorists in our country to continue to destroy our communities. Yeah, I mean, this is the same judge that was willing and excited to lock up thousands of
Starting point is 00:51:51 J6ers, of his own countrymen, and to treat them as terrorists, and now he's protecting foreign terrorists. It's a wild time, Corey. I don't know what they're drinking, dude. I don't know what they're smoking. The American people are too smart for this. OK, they are with us on this. Look, we have almost 100 percent operational control of the border. I don't know if you've seen the numbers, but we've deported more than 800 members of the Tren de Aragua, found almost 200 members on the known terrorist watch list have been in this country.
Starting point is 00:52:20 The border is all but completely sealed now. And that's an accomplishment because Donald Trump, without congressional action needed, said, go close the border. Pete Hagseth, Kristi Noem got together. We've got troops on the border. We've repositioned our naval resources. So they're in the Gulf of America now. They're over in San Diego now. We've got Coast Guard over there. We're working holistically. FBI, DEA, all the government agencies are working together. And instead, what we're seeing is that these activist judges are saying, oh, no, you have to give them the opportunity to make their case and prove they're members of MS-13. When you've got a face tattoo that says MS-13, that doesn't mean, you know, mom and dad love each other on the 13th day of the month. That means you're a bad
Starting point is 00:53:01 hombre and you got to go. Bad hombre. Oh, that means you're a bad hombre and you gotta go. Bad hombre. Oh, that's a classic. That's a classic, Corey. Just real quickly, since you were at this prison, President Trump said, maybe this would be a good place to send the terrorists domestically who are terrorizing Tesla dealerships,
Starting point is 00:53:20 firebombing them and trying to get people killed. I mean, when you blow up an electric car, it's really damaging. There was a Tesla that exploded not too far from here and firebombing them and trying to get people killed. I mean, when you blow up an electric car, it's really damaging. There was a Tesla that exploded not too far from here during a hurricane, actually, and the fire burnt down the entire building. So these people could really kill and could cause major damage.
Starting point is 00:53:36 And Trump's saying, yo, maybe El Salvador, this prison is a great place to send them. Do left-wing terrorists want to go to this prison? I mean, you've seen it for yourself, Corey. Let me tell you something, Benny. I've been to a lot of places around the world. This is the toughest, baddest, most vicious place I've ever seen in my life. Every person there is just completely covering tattoos. There's 100 people in the cell and there's 80 bunks. OK, you do the math. That means 20 people aren't sleeping in a bunk that night. There's no pillows,
Starting point is 00:54:04 there's no blankets. There's no blankets There's no extra desserts. This isn't like an American prison where they get to you know, smuggle in cell phones and say hey I'm gonna call mommy and keep running the gangs from inside. Okay, you get there Is no escape. It doesn't matter. These guys were all the toughest people in their communities in their neighborhood Was and they're all broken. And when I asked them, what did you do? One word, discipline. We walked into the prison.
Starting point is 00:54:32 The warden said, good morning. I said, good morning. You would think you're at a military installation the way they hop to. There are no games at this place. So these guys in America want to light Teslas on fire, and they want to be domestic terrorists. What you don't want to do, and I know many of your viewers have seen the videos of these individuals arriving at this facility. By the way, they got nothing on Michael Bay, right?
Starting point is 00:54:53 Michael Bay's got nothing on these guys, the videos they make. It's incredible. You see the buses coming in, the shave heads going, and the police and the helicopters and the C-130s opening. They say, not the place I want. Nice to visit. I don't want to stay. Okay. Well, I think there's a great deterrent. And actually, can we all agree? Domestic terrorism, we should have a good deterrent on that. We should have deterrents on foreign terrorism as well.
Starting point is 00:55:15 And we should have deterrents on people taking advantage of our country and stealing the future for our children, whether it's an MS-13 gang member killing that young man in North Carolina just a day ago, or whether it's a country's ripping us off. And so Corey Lewandowski has been fighting for America first longer than some people have been alive. And he's great. You got to follow him.

Starting point is 00:55:59 Ladies and gentlemen, we talk about how President Trump is simply trying to make our economy and the way that we manage our home stable. He's trying to renegotiate the cost of debt on our home, right? He's renegotiating our mortgage. He's setting the table correctly so that we're not getting ripped off. So people aren't coming in and stealing our doors, our windows, our treasure from inside of our house, which is what's happened.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, let's jump in here very quickly because we have an excellent senator on hand and somebody who has brought, well, a bit of a, what's that? Okay. All right. Somebody who's brought a bit of a, that's the right way to say this, a muscular coach-like be on the same team mentality to his governance here in the country and the way that he carries himself in the Senate. His name's Tommy Telferville.
Starting point is 00:58:50 I want to talk with him about being on the same team because there's massive news, the number one trending news in the country right now, that the NSA director, National Security Administration director, Cyber Command chief, Timothy Haw, and Wendy Noble were fired in a major shakeup at the wiretapping agency. They were fired after President Trump met with Laura Loomer, and Laura Loomer brought her copious notes into the meeting and talking about making some policy shifts and changes. Obviously, President Trump has had some major issues with loyalty,
Starting point is 00:59:30 with people being on the same team in his administration. And so let's go talk to the coach about this. Coach Tommy Telberville joining us live now to chat being good team members. Let's go. Would you rather coach Tommy Tuberville or Senator Tommy Tuberville? Coach, please. Please call me coach. It means so much more to me because you can get a lot more done. And really, that's what President Trump has turned into. If you just look at it, I call it the great reset. But it's also just changing the game plan of what this country's
Starting point is 01:00:10 been doing for the last 40, 50 years. And we're going in the wrong direction. So it's time to reset new game plan. And that's exactly what he's doing. And he's got a lot of people really, really mad. So he's doing it on a number of different fronts. But, you know, obviously the economic front is front and center. And many people are either concerned or extremely happy about all of this. I happen to be somebody who's very happy about it, but he's also doing it from a personnel front. So just from your coaching experience, Senator, like how, you know, you can't have players on the team who are acting against the better interest of the team or worse yet, just like not performing. This is going to make for a non-championship team.
Starting point is 01:00:52 Yeah. Everybody's got to be on the same page at the end of the day. I used to have, what, 50 or 60 coaches and administrators and strength coaches and trainers. Everybody's got to be on the same page of what you do, how you do it, when you do it. And if you're not, you're not going to be as successful as you can be. And that's what President Trump has taken over. He's taken over a city here in Washington, D.C. that has basically destroyed the American dream of the American people. And it's not just what goes on, it's the people
Starting point is 01:01:26 that are involved. And they're on both sides now. It's not just one side. It's also bureaucrats. It's also politicians. And it's become a game of what I would call just outlast the other president, so to speak. And so President Trump four years benny and he's come out of the shoot and again he has to reset everything because if we continue the same path that we're on we're not going to make it everybody's going well these tariffs are taken away from my stocks or my or my business or whatever folks if these don't work you're really in for trouble because there's nothing else we can do to help the American people without taxing the hell out of them. How do you, yeah, how do you package that to
Starting point is 01:02:11 your constituents? Because there are going to be people who say, wow, this is a, you know, this is a short-term pain. And my 401k took a hit. We've spent an entire show talking about the economics of it and how it's actually genius 4D chess. And somebody was going to have to do it. President Trump's going to talk about it his entire life. How do you communicate this to your constituents? Well, you just hit the word, keyword, communicate. President Trump has got to be out there along with all the people that are around him.
Starting point is 01:02:38 Scott Bessett, Treasury Secretary. Howard Ludnick of Commerce. You've got to get the energy people involved. What people don't really realize, they're talking about prices and things are going on. Hey, folks, by the way, gas has gone down at the pump a dollar a gallon since President Trump took over a little over two months ago. You know how much money that saves you when you fill up your car with gas? Other things have gone down. It's going to work out but you you don't get that uh instant feedback most of the time especially when it comes to tariffs i just talked with some very
Starting point is 01:03:12 important people here in my office a few minutes ago they're big business people not just in our country over the world they said we've never seen this before i mean this has never been tried exactly but this is the only way we can reset our country to the fact that the American people can eventually start getting money and things back from the countries that have taken advantage of. We built the Middle East and Asia and India and Europe. We built it all on the backs of American taxpayers. Now is the time for these people to come back to the party and bring gifts and things to us to where our people don't have to put everything up for grabs and really put everything on the line. Yeah, that's exactly right.
Starting point is 01:03:55 I was shocked looking at that list of the number of nations who practically wouldn't exist. The vast majority of countries in the world wouldn't exist without American might and protection. That's just a matter of fact. The entire global order rests upon having a strong and powerful America. And they're so ungrateful, these bastards. I couldn't believe the tariffs that existed on our nation and the trade deficits that existed with our nation in some of these backwaters that truly wouldn't even, like're they're fake countries right they they totally exist because of America and they take advantage of us it's very insulting yeah one example is Vietnam uh in my state of Alabama we we raise catfish and of course we we're shrimpers in the Gulf and my farmers have
Starting point is 01:04:42 been telling a coach we're gonna go under we absolutely going to go under if you don't do something about Vietnam. Now, we lost 50,000 lives in Vietnam back in the 60s and 70s, 50,000 trying to help them. And they turn around and we're tariffed and they're not. And so President Trump put a 46 percent tax on their catfish coming in because they were dumping billions of pounds of catfish in our country that were, number one, they're bad for you. They're raised in sewers and bad water. Same thing with shrimp. India is just dumping shrimp in here. He put a 26 percent tariff on them. We have to do that or we have no chance.
Starting point is 01:05:15 Our farmers, Joe Biden cared nothing about our farmers. And I hear these Democrats just disputing out about tariffs. Wait a minute. You put our farmers out of business for the last four years. 150,000 farmers gone out of business. You could care less about farmers in this country. You care about getting reelected in power. So President Trump is going out on a limb.
Starting point is 01:05:38 He's doing everything he possibly can to help the American people. This is such a great real-world example. Another excellent example that I've been seeing is that I spent some time in Europe as a young man, and some of my first jobs was actually in Germany for a year and a half. And you never saw an American car. There's nothing but German cars all over American streets, right? There are multiple, they have very popular Mercedes and BMW dealerships in every American city, right? Major American city. And you never saw an American car dealership across any, nowhere in Europe. And I traveled extensively for my first job. And that's because of tariffs. And that's because these
Starting point is 01:06:21 people, like Europe's entire, entire i mean their entire land language and existence depends on the united states of america and they completely insult us and flip us off we created the automobile it should be just american cars all across the world and um it's an insult man well there's one thing that people don't really realize too benny is it's not just tariffs there's countries across the world that will not buy our chicken. They will not buy our beef. Okay. They buy it from other countries. They won't buy it from us. Again, I'm going to go back to our farmers. We are going to end up buying everything from other countries. If we don't save our farmers in this country they are going out of out of business as fast as you can as you
Starting point is 01:07:06 can think and so uh it's just these other countries have to understand we have supported everybody for years and years and years now it's a time for us to take care of ourselves pay your own way and uh like this usa all this fraud that we have here it have here, it'll make you sick at your stomach. If you've seen the things that I've seen, and it's not out yet, you're going to see more and more of it. It's mind-boggling, the money that's going out of this country that the American taxpayers have no clue. And it's been doing that for years and years. Are you alluding to what President Trump said yesterday when he said that Doge has uncovered something monumental and atrocious and horrifying and the American people will be sickened when they find out? Can you give us some insight or elucidation into that?
Starting point is 01:07:55 No, I better go back on that one. But all I can tell you is we meet weekly. I'm on the HELP Committee. I'm on the Ag Committee. I'm on the HELP Committee, I'm on the Ag Committee, I'm on the Armed Service Committee. And, of course, DOGE is going through all those. Right now, they're getting ready to start with Dr. Oz. He was confirmed yesterday with CMS, Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, where we are absolutely.
Starting point is 01:08:18 Everybody's saying President Trump's going to cut those. He's not cutting them. He's going to reform them. Because if we don't reform it and make sure that only people get it that put in that deserve it, it's not going to be, it's not going to last much longer. But yeah, there's a lot of things out there that's coming. If they threw it all out there at one time, it would, it would probably, it needs to, everybody needs to let it soak in a little at a time of really what the politicians, the bureaucrats and the Democrats have done to
Starting point is 01:08:46 this country over years and years. And again, not just Democrats, Republicans that have been in on all this. And again, sometimes it's not intentional. It's just they don't know how to do business up here. They're not business people. They're lawyers and they're people that come up here to hopefully move up the ladder in some other position. But at the end of the day, President Trump is turning this country into a big business and that's exactly what we have to do. Yeah. There's reporting out this morning about Mitch McConnell and the fortune that his family made in China and how Mitch McConnell has been like, he's been voting against, he's voting against these tariffs. He values have been pro China and pro bringing Chinese photos with Xi Jinping. It's like, um, it seems like a massive conflict of interest to me.
Starting point is 01:09:35 I'd love to see rules set up for senators to stop them from being influenced by outside foreign powers and getting filthy rich off of foreign powers? Well, what happens up here is the longer people stay, they get more of a mindset of what they believe and not what the people back in their state believe. Again, I represent the people of Alabama. Like they call me, my catfish farmers call me, Coach, you got to do something. So we went to the White House.
Starting point is 01:10:00 We talked to them. Same thing with our shrimpers. Same thing with our rowcroppers of cotton and soybeans who basically are about gone. And so it's the regulations that these people put in. But but we don't fight against that enough. But as President Trump said, the regulations are really coming from the bureaucrats and other countries. If, as I just said, Japan, they won't eat eat our chicken. You've got to be kidding me. I mean, we have some of the best chicken and meat. Australia, we don't eat meat from the United States. Really?
Starting point is 01:10:32 I mean, anything that they sell, we'll eventually buy. We're the richest country, and if it wasn't for us buying things, we're the biggest buyer of products all over the world. And so they expect us, if we put a little bit of tariff on them, that they're going to cry and complain about it. No. Hey, free tickets over. It's time for everybody to pay their fair share. Good. Senator, I had a passion project very quickly to ask you about.
Starting point is 01:11:00 And I know time is short here. So this will be the last question. But something that I think is near and dear to everyone's heart. You talk about waste, fraud, and abuse. I flew out of Washington yesterday, and there were seven TSA agents with zero line with just the normal boarding. And then there was one TSA agent doing the pre-check, and it was like 100 people in the line. And everyone was waiting, and everyone was getting late for their flight. It's one of the most mismanaged organizations in the country. Many argue that
Starting point is 01:11:29 it should be illegal based on search and seizure and fourth amendment, third amendment, fourth amendment laws. You now are bringing forth an idea to potentially abolish the TSA. I know that you're in favor of this. I'd like to chat with you about that and how you think that would work out, abolishing the TSA. Well, first of all, we need security at the airport. We know 9-11. The problem is that George W. Bush put in the TSA and it's a bloated government agency. And so government agencies don't work. We found that out. Now we've gone from one of no employees 20 years ago to 60,000 union employees working all over the country. Now let's think about this. We have a lot of small airports across the country that they don't have TSA. They do,
Starting point is 01:12:17 they privatize. That's what we have to do. Get it out of federal government. These people that work in there, they can work for a privatized company, let them buy it, let the airlines and the airports run it, but get the federal government out of it. We can't run anything. We're broke. We got to get out of this and give it to a capitalist group that wants to make money that will do it right, that will hold people accountable. We got more DEI employees with the TSA than you can stir with a stick. And again, I go through airports twice a week and it's a catastrophe. And I know a lot of people have the same problems, but again, we need security, but it's time that we understand that they did a little program not too long ago with TSA.
Starting point is 01:13:08 They hid fake guns, plastic guns, and explosives. They found 5% out of 100% of those explosives and guns going through TSA. It's a failure, okay? If it's 100%, we got a good chance, but it's not working. So if it's not working, what do you do? You reset it, just like President Trump's resetting the country. And we've got to make sure that we keep people safe on airplanes. Senator, I hope that we keep people safe by not having catfish raised in sewers in Vietnam.
Starting point is 01:13:40 I'm all for Alabama catfish. I'd love nothing more. I'm not sure I've ever had Alabama catfish. I think I've had Alabama shrimp. It's not too far off the Florida coast here. That great Gulf of America, just a beautiful place. And I hope that you'll take me up someday on a plate of Alabama catfish. Now you have my appetite going. That'd be awesome. Thank you, Benny. Thank you, Senator. Everybody follow the Senator here at Tommy Talberville. 115 115 000 people already follow godspeed center coach all right ladies and gentlemen the senator himself is quite a brick house he's uh coached quite a few brick houses coached many championship teams and is uh yeah, just a legend. And we love having people that don't come from the political world, right?
Starting point is 01:14:28 There are these urchins that live inside of the underbelly of politics, like Mitch McConnell is one of them, that are so corrupt, so corrupt. He kind of took the Mitch McConnell bait, didn't he? Yeah, we got problems up here. Ladies and gentlemen, we got it. We got ourselves a brick house. The Rock, for instance, is somebody that Tommy Tuberville has coached. We also use brick house at this show. I'm doing my best to stay in shape.
Starting point is 01:15:01 We do spend a lot of time in the studio. This is a little black box. And while I'm at a standing desk right now, I stand during the show.

Starting point is 01:16:38 So we didn't get a chance to really build this out, but let's do things I don't want to miss. I want to get the take from J.D. Vance on these tariffs. I think he talked through this. J.D. Vance, obviously, hillbilly. The panacea of the working class. Guys like got... Clearly comes from a place where everybody had grease under their fingernails coal under their collars have you ever been to west virginia i certainly have i've gone inside
Starting point is 01:17:12 of these coal mines man these people are the hardest working just best hearted best hearted americans that we have and we're abandoning them. We're destroying these communities. I saw it myself, just entire towns, just ghost towns now. J.D. Vance comes from that world, and it's very famous. He wrote Hillbilly Elegy to describe what happens when a little town in Vietnam, like peasant slave labor,
Starting point is 01:17:42 takes the jobs from the middle of America. A good example of this is East Palestine, for instance. East Palestine, obviously. That was a big ceramics and manufacturing area, and they shut all those factories down and moved them to India. So they stole, and you go to East Palestine, man,
Starting point is 01:17:58 it's like a, it's tough, man. That town is barely getting by, and then Biden explodes a train right in the middle of it and pours toxic chemicals on all the children who live there. It's just total insult. Anyway, the point is that these are the places that J.D. Vance is from. So I want to get J.D. Vance on the tariffs. Let's lock in. Explain to us how you get manufacturing here, but also get the cost down for the American people. Well, if you go back a little bit, Lawrence, remember during the first Trump administration,
Starting point is 01:18:28 everybody said that Trump's tariffs were going to be inflationary back then. What actually happened? We had 1.5 percent inflation. We had the fastest growing economy in a generation. And we had the beginning of a manufacturing renaissance in the United States of America. Then, of course, we had four terrible years of the Biden administration. But I think it's useful for all of us to step back and ask us, ask ourselves, what has the globalist economy gotten the United States of America? And the answer is, fundamentally, it's based on two principles, incurring a huge amount of debt to buy things that other countries make for us. And to make it a little bit more crystal clear, we borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture. That is not a recipe for economic
Starting point is 01:19:10 prosperity. It's not a recipe for low prices, and it's not a recipe for good jobs in the United States of America. For 40 years, we have gone down that pathway. We've seen closing factories. We've seen rising inflation. We've seen the cost of housing so high that most Americans can't afford to buy a home right now. President Trump is taking this economy in a different direction. He ran on that. He promised it. And now he's delivering. And yes, this is a big change. I'm not going to shy away from it, but we needed a big change. Lawrence, we cannot keep going down the Joe Biden globalist pathway where we have two trillion dollars of peacetime debt, debt and deficits. We have
Starting point is 01:19:45 manufacturing disappearing. That is not working for Americans. We've got to take this country in a different direction. Let them cook, man. Let them cook. I see these black pillars on my timeline. They're like, oh, I lost a little bit of money in the stock market. First off, you lost no money. It's just numbers on a balance sheet. It's not real unless you panic sell. It's not real unless you don't believe in what you actually invested in in the first place. And if you're investing in American companies and you're investing in the companies that make this country great and that hold up this country, well, then, yeah. I mean, listen, when you print a bunch of fake money, maybe that's going to inflate the stock market a little bit and maybe we're going to see a little bit of a return to normalcy.
Starting point is 01:20:35 We already showed you the stock market chart. Please don't freak out on these things. But more importantly, like, can we please, like, establish? And I'll tell you, you know, if you want to come for me in the comment sections, don't care. Losing money costs you nothing. This is just the reality of life. Were you young and dumb? How much money did you lose?
Starting point is 01:20:58 Everyone loses money. Everyone loses money. It costs you nothing. In fact, it builds quite a bit of character. In fact, you learn a lot of lessons actually by losing money. Losing your character costs you everything. Losing your country costs you nothing in fact it builds quite a bit of character in fact you learn a lot of lessons actually by losing money losing your character costs you everything losing your country costs you everything there are things you can't get back you can the government can print more money and it will sadly that's just the reality it's fugazis fugazi it's just so there's a there's a there's a boom and a bust every 10 years, and it's been that way since the invention of modern markets in the 1600s.
Starting point is 01:21:28 The Dutch crash of 1649. You ever heard of it? It's just the way that it works. It's the way that monetary policy has always worked. There's going to be ups and downs, especially as the table gets reset if you lose the character of your country if your town gets hollowed out give me that photo that town man the photo that I gave me a photo that town in West Virginia your town gets hollowed out and your entire neighborhood gets addicted to opioids and your steel mill shuts down and your farmers can't
Starting point is 01:22:08 grow crops and there's no more cattle ranchers there's no more cowboys there's no more fishers there's no more workers and we're completely and totally dependent upon slave labor peasants across Asia to make every good and service and pharmaceutical, then you've actually lost your country. And then we are the slaves. There you go. This is West Virginia. And it's so sad that this was a factory that provided thousands of honest, good-hearted, steel-working jobs for our fellow countrymen.
Starting point is 01:22:53 And it was ripped. The guts of it got ripped out and shipped by people like Mitch McConnell so that they could make a couple extra points in their portfolio to get stock swaps with Pan-Asian countries. And they sold out their countrymen, and I call that traderism, actually. I think that's the definition of a trader. You can lose money. You can lose points in your portfolio. It costs you absolutely nothing. You won't miss them when you're dead.
Starting point is 01:23:26 Nobody ever had their net worth carved onto their tombstone. It doesn't even matter when you're on your deathbed. Who cares? It's just digits on a ledger. What will matter is did you preserve your nation for your children? Did you view your country as something more than just an economic zone and tax cattle and slaves to China? Put that up, President Trump. No crying in the casino.
Starting point is 01:23:57 Is it really? I don't care. It's too good. The final point I'll make on this is who's the slave and who's the master? You know, if you're pharmaceutical and automobile and phone, all the wires in your home, every electronic in your home, if everything that you use in your life is wholly and totally built by a foreign power that hates you, then you're the slave.
Starting point is 01:24:28 You've always thought of America as the master of the world or as like an empire. It's not. Not if we are totally dependent and on our knees before these third world goblin dictatorships. So it's time for a total reset. It's time for them to know who's boss, and it's time for us to be the master once again.
Starting point is 01:24:51 That's the point of this country, actually, to be the master of our own destinies. Ladies and gentlemen, it's our honor to welcome to the program for the very first time Jeff Crank from Colorado. He's on the House Armed Services Committee. And man, that's a state that we'd sure like to turn red again. Welcome, Congressman Crank.
Starting point is 01:25:33 Congressman, how are you? Hey, Benny. how are you, man? Thanks for having me. Yeah, man, we're good, man. We're locked in and excited about potentially reinvigorating the American dream in this country. Something that is really tough when you walk the streets of Denver. I know I see here in the script that this is something that you're fighting yourself. But when you walk the streets of Denver, man, I've, I would travel like a kid raised in Iowa. So you'd like do this horrific drive across Nebraska to go to Colorado, right? And to go skiing maybe, or just to see the big city. And that was a, it was a gorgeous, like almost like country Western, like gateway town. I've returned there in the last couple of years. And that is, it is a third world hellscape Denver. It is so awful to see, and I'm so sad about it. How do we fix that, Congressman? Well, yeah, you're right. And, you know, I'm from Colorado Springs, which is,
Starting point is 01:26:16 you know, an hour south of Denver, and it's really a tale of two cities. And frankly, Colorado Springs is still governed by conservatives. Denver, of course, is governed by liberals. Unfortunately, we have a very liberal governor and a very liberal state legislature, and they just keep passing more stupid laws. And they do it on guns. They pass stupid laws on drugs. They decriminalize crime every chance they get. And it's turning it's really Denver is turning into Seattle. I think it's a few years behind Seattle or Portland only because they started before Denver did. But, you know, we're working hard to try and turn that around.
Starting point is 01:26:58 But it's it's difficult when you've got a governor in a state legislature that, you know, they're just hell bent on doubling down on stupid. What happened to Colorado, man? It was a red state like not too long ago. Something something something terrible happened. Are you going to blame it on California? Well, we can blame some of it on California. Now, look, I mean, we certainly had a lot of people move to Colorado. It's been a state that has seen a lot of in-migration over the last 10 years. A lot of people moving here because of the beauty of Colorado and people getting very tired of the terrible policies in places like California moved to Colorado. They moved to Montana. They're moving to a lot of Western states. I think COVID accelerated it. People wanting to get out of the big cities and move to a better life in the West, if you will.
Starting point is 01:27:52 So there's been some of that. But at the same time, I mean, we saw, if you've read the book, The Blueprint, it's really about how the left set out 15, 20 years ago to change Colorado and to invest the money into it and into infrastructure to change it. And they've done it. And they started, you know, they wanted to get control of the secretary of state's office here. And they did that. All of the statewide offices, they put effort, time and effort into winning those. And obviously, state legislative seat by legislative seat. And so I think that's been part of it. The other part of it is, I think our own party, the Republican Party, has destroyed itself as well from within by constantly bickering and fighting over power instead of trying to fight to elect conservatives. We've kind of turned that around here. I think in the last year we saw us increase. We went from having three of the eight
Starting point is 01:28:53 congressional seats. We picked up one. So we're four out of our four seats are Republicans. So we're making some progress, but it's been slow. So you brought up the secretary of state, Jenna Griswold, and she's been, well, not a friend of this show. She's tried to rip President Trump off the ballot and done everything in her power to do her own sort of January 6th arrests of Colorado citizens who are just trying to blow the whistle on rigged, stolen, or just flatly insecure elections. This is the same Secretary of State who I guess left all of the key cards for all of the electronic voting machines open and available on her website. I mean, was that on purpose? What's going on? Should there be a criminal investigation into your secretary of state? Well, there should be. She should have resigned from that alone. I mean, first of all, when you get smacked down nine to nothing by the
Starting point is 01:29:56 United States Supreme Court, there are few people that have that high honor, right, to be smacked down nine nothing by the U.S. Supreme Court on her removal of President Trump from the ballot. You know, that's, as I say, a high honor and distinction. But not only that, this putting the passcodes on the Internet, you know, whether it was intentional or whether it was her just, you know, doing it out of incompetence. Either way, she should resign. I called on her to resign. And if she won't resign, yeah, the state legislature, the governor ought to force an investigation into her. Unfortunately, she's going to be done because term limits will force her to not be the secretary of state in two years. But guess what? She's planning on running for Attorney
Starting point is 01:30:46 General of the state of Colorado. So we're probably not going to be done with General Griswold unless we work hard to keep her out. So what does working hard to keep her out mean? Well, we've got to find a good candidate. I mean, we don't have good candidates right now. I mean, honestly, I think the left in Colorado knocked out our bench, our farm team, if you will, for Republicans in a lot of ways. I mean, we're down to such a, I mean, we barely avoided a super majority in the Senate and the House. They used to have a super majority in the House. We took it away this last year by one vote. So by one vote, they can't just run anything they want through the
Starting point is 01:31:25 legislature and not even have to worry about the governor's support. So we're slowly crawling back, but we just don't have a bench right now of good candidates who can run for many of these seats. So we need to build that. It's going to take some time. But the good news is I think there are people, and I've met with them over the last several months, who really are interested in trying to figure out a way to claw back in Colorado. It's a beautiful state. It's something that we can't see. We can't just say we're going to fall off. I mean, there's cities like Pueblo, which is south of me by about an hour south. It's steadily gone from the time of JFK, where it voted overwhelmingly Democrat. Every year, it's got more and more Republican. It voted for Trump in 2016 and 2024. He won that
Starting point is 01:32:19 county. He was the first president in 2016 to win Pueblo County, and it's flipped. So there is hope. We just need to continue to help those red parts of the state. You're supporting a bill that would defund sanctuary cities. I think that would help, frankly. I'm all in favor because the pain that these cities have cost innocent Americans. I mean, we just find out again and again and again. Just yesterday, a valedictorian D1 athlete that was going to go play college football
Starting point is 01:32:49 was killed by an illegal alien drunk driving in North Carolina. It happened here in Tampa a year ago with a mother and a daughter. And I'm sick of it. And I want pain. And Democrats are Sanctuary City. I'm sorry, Democrats.
Starting point is 01:33:03 The Democrat Sanctuary City of Denver is just one of the worst, I mean, frankly. Again, it was just disgusting walking the streets. It was so sad. Lean-tos and tents and drugs everywhere. It's just like entire shanty towns being built throughout Denver. And it was very dangerous. I mean, we got our camera smashed actually, because some hobo just like came up and smashed it. Yep. It was terrible. So I hope that you're successful here.
Starting point is 01:33:33 Yeah. And it's, look, it's Denver for sure, but it's our state legislature that is forcing these policies. And our governor continues to try and say that we're not a sanctuary state, but he signed bills into law that made us a sanctuary state. And so those laws should be repealed. Denver wrote a manual. They put a manual up on the internet explaining to other cities how to be a sanctuary city. I got after the mayor of Denver in a hearing a few weeks back because when they transfer someone to ICE, they won't actually do the transfer in the jail. They'll walk out, release them, essentially take the handcuffs off and release them out of their jail. And if ICE is there, ICE can chase them down. I mean, that's unbelievable. We've had, we had an ICE agent that got bit by an illegal immigrant who, who was being released from the jail. The mayor frankly lied
Starting point is 01:34:34 about it. And he said, no, it didn't happen. There was, there was six people in there. There were not six people in the yard. There was one ICE agent in the yard, one. And you know, they released this criminal and i asked the mayor would you feel safe if you were the only person in a yard with a trend aragwa gang member you know of course he didn't you don't want to answer that question so it's it's out of control and it's not only the illegal immigrant stuff it's also the drug culture, the drug culture of Denver and of Colorado is, is again, it's they're, they're doing what Portland did. Only Portland's now kind of pulling some of that stuff back because they know how bad it is. Yeah. It's grotesque. And it's, it's atrocious
Starting point is 01:35:16 how they do this to some of America's greatest cities. Like Chicago is just a great city. You won't get another one. Denver's a great city. They actually targeted, it's almost like a humiliation ritual. They target some of our most beautiful and treasured places in this country to to destroy them, I think, to break the American spirit. So we're thankful for you fighting, Congressman, and keeping Colorado alive and keeping hope alive there in that state. Obviously, we are happy to have you on the show for the first time and uh hope to do a hope to see you in colorado springs that itself is a very beautiful uh that itself is a very beautiful city that has not been lost uh the great jeff crank uh everyone go follow here on social
Starting point is 01:35:57 media colorado's fifth district um and fighting for us thank you you, sir. Thanks, Benny. Appreciate you. Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. Ask Benny anything and we'll do some super chats. Let's go. All right. We're building a new one. We're building a new one. All right.
Starting point is 01:36:24 Klein tells me he's kind of, okay, okay, all right. We got a lot of work to do. Okay, okay. Well, it's a perfect question. First off, Megan Henderson, how do we make Colorado red again? So there's no such thing as a permanent red state or a permanent blue state. That's been proven time and time again. Watch New Jersey flip in the next presidential election.
Starting point is 01:36:43 Watch states. Watch states like the blue wall flip. Like watch Pennsylvania become Florida, meaning Florida was like a purple state 20 years ago. Oh boy, is it going to be the Republican? Is it going to be the Democrat? Nope. Florida is now like rock red, rock red Republican. I was talking with Byron Donalds this morning. We have some exciting work we're going to be doing with Byron here in the state. The state is gone red and it's going to stay red. Watch the same thing happen in Pennsylvania. And you can do it all across the country. The problem with Colorado is that Republicans don't need Colorado to win on a map, on a congressional map.
Starting point is 01:37:24 That's the major issue. And the way that Colorado is going, you just kind of, I mean, you can see here, look at the, you know, it's very interesting in the state, all of the counties that are like farmland and ranchers, those are all like deep red. And then all of the elitist ski chalet towns for all of the elitists, globalist elitists who come in from California, like the Aspen sort of the mountain range there. That's the blue, the big streak of blue through the state. Those are all the extremely expensive and elite ski towns. That's what actually flips the state. It's very interesting we'd love to see like the voter rolls there to see exactly how many fraudulent votes are being cast by people who don't actually live
Starting point is 01:38:09 in colorado because they own a place in aspen where the beer flows like wine juice to griffin let's go baby should spacex build a new air force one boeing has pushed it back to 2027 or 2028 absolutely there's no reason why air force like there's no reason why with the advent of AI and with the American manufacturing might that still does exist, that we can't get a new Air Force One, like built within the year. It is so dumb.
Starting point is 01:38:36 It is so stupid. Elon Musk is literally saving astronauts in space. SpaceX could totally build this thing. It'd be very cool to send the president to space every time he turned, like that's actually the fastest way to get across the country to go into orbit. So maybe you just make it a SpaceX vehicle. You're exactly right, Juice. Crystal Marie Dobbins, Benny, I saw you in Tom McDonald's new song. How does it feel knowing that you were part of the number one song, Ultimate FU to the left? Much love, Benny Cho, for being real. What up? Crystal,
Starting point is 01:39:01 it feels awesome. And just just like yesterday um this every every victory and everything that we do in this program is for you it's for our like it's it's it i'm you i went to community college okay i i'm not some harvard guy right i'm not some ivy league guy uh i'm a working class dad. I am a dad who is like building a little company. Uh, my chosen profession is not auto detailing or construction, uh, or finance. My chosen profession is streaming and news. And so we just have a little humble company here. I'm a simple Christian and we're we're like, we're blown away by the support for the show, support for what we're doing. And we're never going to quit.
Starting point is 01:39:52 We're going to keep on rolling and we're going to keep on muscling through into spaces that we shouldn't be allowed. And we're going to bulldoze the people that are trying to gatekeep us. It's great. It's an exciting time. And our victories are your victories. We're pretty honest about who we are. we're going to bulldoze the people that are trying to gatekeep us. It's great. It's an exciting time. And we, our victories are your victories. We're pretty honest about who we are and what we do. I share photos of my family,
Starting point is 01:40:16 our humble little home and our humble little lives all the time. It is a joy to be able to build all this together with you. And it is a profound joy to say that this country is, this company is 100 percent made in America. We employ only Americans. Our entire store is made in America. Our Christmas ornament this year was all made in America. I went to the factory with the Americans making all of them.
Starting point is 01:40:37 Here in Florida, like right up the street. So like we do everything here. We put our money where our mouth is and we straight up invest. I guess Klein only liked the cameras. I i guess the camera is thinking cameras like you know come from korea sucks you know sucks what do we have to do get reds like to be built in america are reds even made in america that's a good question all right so that's so you know what can what can you do that's fine show me the great some of the good cameras that are made in here in the states and i will go we'll go that direction but thank you crystal yes all right let's jump on over here ladies and gentlemen some super chats um and uh rock and roll
Starting point is 01:41:18 uh Benny? Okay, so here we go. Aesop's fan. Benny, are your little girls being like little mommies with their brothers? Yes. Yes. 100%. Yes. Here, I'll show you. Why not?
Starting point is 01:41:44 I'll show you. I'll show you a video from this morning. There you go Pop it up this is this is our newborn and You'll see in this clip. I think I think there's I think this is an appropriate. I think this is an appropriate clip to play. Yeah. Why won't it roll? Okay.
Starting point is 01:42:19 You'll see here the... Yeah. Okay, you just play it. Like, it's... You can hear the... You can hear my girls, like, constantly. This is our newborn this morning. You can hear our girls just constantly running over
Starting point is 01:42:38 and wanting to, like, be mommy with the newborn. So there we go. Dad, I'm here for mommy, mom. Dad, I'm here for mommy, mom. like be mommy with the newborn. There we go. They want to be mommy. This is my morning. These are our mornings. I actually profoundly feel bad for men who don't get to experience this
Starting point is 01:43:06 it is the greatest it is the greatest thing in life right there seeing that that is the greatest that is the single greatest motivator in the morning you want to know why i'm for the terrorists you want to know why i'm for protectionist policies to preserve america for americans that's why there it is uh okay when are you guys coming to liberate canada be happy to one of my biggest regrets was we weren't able we weren't able to get to canada before the election to show you uh to go interview people at the mcdonald's that kamala harris supposedly worked out uh thank you for the question, Nick Glock. Who here would vote for Trump for a third term? Marissa says, everybody who says I trust Trump.
Starting point is 01:44:03 What if he's wrong? Because here we are, the global economy, and we get Amazon packages the next day for a while. I'm not saying that there's going to be zero pain as you exercise the demons. There's always a little pain as you exercise the demons from these places. But the end results and the unwinding of these policies is going to be worth it for our country. It's true.
Starting point is 01:44:29 And no amount of cheap plastic crap or points in your portfolio today can take the place of a future for your children tomorrow. Last one, y'all. Austin Metcalf. Prayers for Austin Metcalf. That's exactly right. I'm not sure if we had a block actually built in here for Austin Metcalf prayers for Austin Metcalf that's exactly right I'm not sure if we had a block actually built in here for Austin Metcalf
Starting point is 01:44:49 guess not there was a lot going on there's a lot going on this morning we covered it in another video we covered it yesterday in a video that I recorded from my hotel room I was so upset about this but yes I said this morning, death sentence.
Starting point is 01:45:06 Austin Metcalf, just if you're unfamiliar with the story, I'm sure you're not, but if you're unfamiliar with the story, Austin Metcalf is a 4.0 student who's a promising young athlete who was at a track meet, got stabbed in the heart by this individual. His name's Carmelo Anthony, I believe. So Carmelo Anthony here commits cold-blooded homicide and should face the death sentence. He should die for this.
Starting point is 01:45:38 This is how you actually send a message that you're not allowed to engage in just blind, rage-filled, evil hatred. I think it should be charged as a civil rights. Also, this should be charged by the feds as a civil rights violation. There should be a full investigation to see if race played any factor here. But of course, it did play a factor. There's just absolute, total, fundamental, data-based realities about young black males and tendencies towards violence. Something like, what are the numbers? Something like Matt Walsh was going off on this. Something like 4% of black males will commit homicide in their lives? That seems like one of the largest existential problems in our entire society.
Starting point is 01:46:27 The numbers, and I want to be accurate here, but it's like clearly the single most violent subsection of our entire society. Jason Whitlock going off about disculture and how if any perceived insult entitles you to behave like in rage-filled, deadly violence, well, the reality of this is that, one, this individual, Comrade Law Anthony, should be put to death, death sentence, we looked, death sentence. You can be put to death actually quite easily in the state of Texas. And more importantly, there needs to be, yeah, that's the data right there. There needs to be absolute and total consequences in a larger cultural conversation about this. This is so much worse than George Floyd. This is worse in every conceivable manner.
Starting point is 01:47:26 Let's reset the table here. George Floyd was killed by fentanyl. China and Mexico are far more responsible for George Floyd's murder than a cop in Minneapolis. George Floyd died of an overdose while being arrested for a crime that he was committing. He was using fake currency. So George Floyd's a career criminal. He died because of drugs from China and Mexico. And that's just a matter of fact. Now, where are the, where, where's the national conversation about Austin Metcalf? Where's the national conversation about the most violent section, subsection of our society and why are they so violent. I mean, I think there's too many factors to really name here, but fatherlessness,
Starting point is 01:48:13 crippling fatherlessness, no zero consequences, rage issues that come from broken homes, a culture of absolute toxicity that glorifies death and gangbanging. And if you go back and you really look through the files of where gangster rap comes from, it was designed in order to corrupt young men. And that entire culture was designed in order to kneecap that entire subsection of the population. It's demonic in its origins, as is the entire welfare state that rat trapped these people. Go back and look. I mean, I can't repeat the, there are too many N words to repeat LBJ's commentary on black Americans, the guy who created the modern welfare state. So I can't repeat his exact quotes on the stream here. We'll get the stream taken down.
Starting point is 01:49:10 But let me just tell you, these people didn't like black Americans. Black Americans were doing great before the Great Society of the 1960s was implemented. That incentivized fatherlessness. That incentivized no work, that incentivized government housing. If you want to talk about total and complete subsistency and lack of life or options, you want to know where like deep-seated rage comes from inside of a man? Hopelessness. Hopelessness. So Carmelo Anthony ain't the victim here. I'm talking about the greater overall problem. How do we get statistics like this? Put up that chart one more time. Put up the chart. Here we go. Black on black or black on white crime?
Starting point is 01:50:06 You've got to scroll over, please. Okay, so white, this is homicide. This is homicide rates, correct? Okay. So homicide rates in America, I think black is like 10% of the population. 10, 13, 13% of the population. So with...
Starting point is 01:50:37 14% of the population. With this absolutely atrociously outsized number of murders. You have a country that's 60% white Americans, 3,000 murders. 14% of the population doing 3,000 murders, killing others. This is also like you could say Black Lives Matter because it's actually 2,500 of those 3,000 are black Americans. So what's going on, right, with this population? Like, can we actually have an honest, like, data-based conversation about this?
Starting point is 01:51:17 How many more people need to die before we can actually talk about these numbers and then talk about, like, how do you fix this? The answer is obviously going to be spiritual, actually, in nature. So much of what's happened here has been demonic. But that's for another live. But that's the data. And that's the real problem.
Starting point is 01:51:40 And I think part of the, you know, as a parent, the easiest way to fix a real, you know, a real violence issue. There are violence issues in my family in the sense that like kids hit each other and bite each other and stuff. Right. This is how kids behave. You fix that with harsher penalties. Actually. Bring back the Joe Biden of the 1990s. Right. Yeah. OK. Bring back those speeches. You fix that with like putting Carmelo Anthony to death. That's what you do. You like start putting,
Starting point is 01:52:11 and you make that a big public deal. You start saying like, you're not allowed to just, this isn't trap. This isn't, you know, this isn't a flex. Like your life's over. State of Texas can do good here,
Starting point is 01:52:27 but also immediately the Department of Justice run by her mate Dylan and the Civil Rights Division needs to investigate this as a hate crime, a hate murder where a young black man stabbed a young white man out of like vengeful hatred. And that needs to be done immediately.
Starting point is 01:52:48 Ladies and gentlemen. That will begin to send a message that this is not permissible. And then maybe we can start having an actual honest conversation about why this subsection of society is so atrociously violent and broken. And I think that'll be good.
Starting point is 01:53:05 Okay. In case you're wondering if, if I want to, if I'm going to shy away from this topic, I apologize. We had three guests today. There's only so much you can get to. And I didn't want to not talk about this.
Starting point is 01:53:15 I do want to talk about this. I think it's incredibly important conversation. Okay. Let's, let's go. I apologize for the, I apologize for the rant there, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for the update, Benny.
Starting point is 01:53:28 Don't forget Austin Metcalf. That's right. People talking about Austin Metcalf in the Super Chats. And so I want there to be, you know, I want there to be, I want you guys to know that this is something that I really care about and that I'm going to be pushing for the death penalty. Yeah. We do a segment on the corruption of family court systems that causes issues
Starting point is 01:53:48 like fatherless homes. Yeah, absolutely. The entire American penal system is set. There is no more anti-man and anti-father institution on earth than the court systems here in this country. And it's horrible to men. And it's an awful incentive to become a father. Because the system is then so set against you,
Starting point is 01:54:13 it's a terrible incentive to actually create fathers and good fathers because it's almost like everything is set for you to fail from the start. I'm not blackpilling here. I'm just saying these are things that can be fixed. Okay, beautiful family. Are you going to have more babies? We have the Donald Trump.
Starting point is 01:54:31 Speaking of why I care so much about this, I just showed you a photo of my son. Could you imagine? I'm a father. I cannot imagine some degenerate loser, scumbag, thug, stabs my son or daughter and kills him? It's beyond the realm of fathomable. I'm going to need the actual asset to play, so please grab it. But yeah, I mean, it's just, it's what makes me,
Starting point is 01:55:05 tell you what, man, you ain't no man if you don't got land, as my grandfather would say. Like having children, having land, digs your heels into the soil, and it makes you wanna fight in a very, very different way. Because it could have been my, when I came home, me coming home yesterday, yeah, me coming home yesterday yesterday i'll show you my the way my kids treat me when i come home from dc um and answer this question sorry i'm not sorry stephanie wilson not trying to like blend
Starting point is 01:55:37 two things but uh the answer is yes i would love to the answer is yes i would love to have more kids um this is how i'm greeted when I come home. My kids ask me, why am I dressed like Donald Trump? Because I'm wearing a suit and a tie, and I rarely do that. Here we go. Why are you in a Donald Trump shirt? Why are you in a Donald Trump shirt? Why are you in a Donald Trump shirt?
Starting point is 01:56:03 Is this what Donald Trump wears? Is this a Donald Trump shirt. Is this what Donald Trump wears? Is this a Donald Trump shirt? This is life, and I'm here for it, and this is what I fight for, and I'm pretty honest about that. And yes, I'm wearing a Donald Trump shirt. And yes, I'd love to have more babies. Don't tell my wife. But yes, I'd love to have more babies I just want
Starting point is 01:56:26 to say thank you for joining the Benny Brigade the one and only Ron the Don Smith thank you ladies and gentlemen it is one o'clock and we try and we have to we have to jump to a ton of other work get ready for for the weekend, make sure we have a bunch of coverage. But I want to do this. We're working on an actual segment where we just do super chats all day. And so not super chats all day, but like where we do super chats because I want to make this far more interactive. And so we're going to be doing this with regularity. We have like stingers and a whole new segment.
Starting point is 01:57:06 Maybe we'll do it earlier in the show. I'm not exactly sure. We're going to work on it, but I just want to say thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. Let me grab one or two more of the urgent message. The Maud case out of South Dakota needs to be blown up.
Starting point is 01:57:22 It's the agricultural equivalent of Kyle Rittenhouse case. You need to have the Lonesome Lands podcast guys on your show well we have our executive producers on and we'll be looking
Starting point is 01:57:32 at that thank you very much John Kilbaugh the mods case out of South Dakota sounds like some really Yellowstone Western
Starting point is 01:57:39 sounds like some Yellowstone Western stuff but that's cool by me Lady Trucker says, there are companies here in Colorado already using this AI identity verification.
Starting point is 01:57:51 I was able to verify it yesterday. I'm worried that I may have to quit my job. Someone please help me. Oh, no. AI identity verification. Is this like a voter rule kind of thing? I'm not sure. Lady Trucker is a regular on the channel.
Starting point is 01:58:06 We're a big fan of her. I assume it's her, Lady Trucker. Right? Okay. Good morning, Benny Brigade. I'm a truck driver of 13 years. Oh, here we go. Here's the exclamation. It's requiring all truck drivers, the FMCSA, requiring all truck drivers and independent drivers to perform an AI
Starting point is 01:58:21 identity verification through facial recognition. Can somebody please tell me who authorized this? help? Yeah, I mean, it's, I can't. We can look into it. I can tell you everything is going that direction. I mean, when your phone, when you open up your phone and it takes your face, right? Your face is getting mapped on everything. Now, you soon won't be able to fly without having a real ID, which is a full face map and retinal scan. That's coming like in the next two years. So, Lady Trucker, this is just gonna be the way,
Starting point is 01:58:57 this is gonna be the way that it goes. And the country has, I mean, the country has decided that full facial scans, I mean, it's scary stuff, right? If you're a Bible-believing Christian, then you're like, well, this is a couple steps away from having the mark of the beast. And you'll have to have something printed on you in order to buy and sell. That is coming, right? We are simple Christians and we do believe in the Bible. And so it, like,
Starting point is 01:59:26 you know, makes your skin crawl. But ultimately, what's the point? The point isn't to, like, be scared or worried throughout life. The point is that we already have the victory. We've already won as Christians. We will win. And the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives within us every single day. So we have nothing to fear, actually. We are the powerful ones. We are the masters, and Satan loses in the end. So we just keep fighting.
Starting point is 01:59:59 We can't defeat an army of happy warriors, especially when they're armed correctly with our verse of the day. He grants a treasure of common sense. To be honest, he is a shield to those who walk with integrity, from Proverbs 2.7. We always ask this. You can ask for gifts. You can ask for gifts, and you're silly if you don't ask. You should ask. You can ask for common sense. You can ask for wisdom. What does Mel Gibson ask for in The Patriot? Lord, make me fast and accurate. Lord, make me fast and accurate, right? He's saying, that's right. Yep. Stand there in the tree. And oh, he was fast and accurate. That's right. Took out an entire brigade
Starting point is 02:00:43 in that, i think this documentary actually uh i think i think it was a documentary i think it was filmed yes that was ken burn that was filmed during the revolutionary war uh either way don't care that's my lore all right that's our lore you're never going to take it away from us we love mel gibson uh you can you can ask for gifts you can ask for these things god wants you to. My children ask me constantly for these things. And your relationship as a parent with a child is the same relationship that God has with all of us. That's why God says, let the little children come unto me. Do not stop them.
Starting point is 02:01:18 Because you've got to be like these little children to enter the kingdom of heaven. You can ask for gifts, and you should ask. It's going to be different because everyone needs different things in life. But God's got us, and that's all you need to know. Ladies and gentlemen, we hope that you have a wonderful weekend in this greatest country on earth, the United States of America. Prouder, stronger than ever. We will win. It's your boy Benny. See ya.

He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but i think huey has a far more bitter cynical sense of humor it's also a personal statement about the band itself hey paul try getting a reservation at george The biggest ships in the sea Are owned by the oldest kings
