Starting point is 00:00:00 Today is Tuesday, April 1st, 2025. Hopefully there won't be any April Fool's trickery going on. We hear that it's bad weather in Wisconsin, but we have reports from Wisconsin. Joining the program will be Scott Pressler, along with Randy Fine, who's running here in the state of Florida, Wisconsin and Florida, with special elections today. And we have very positive news coming out of both of those elections.
Starting point is 00:00:24 Mark Mitchell from Rasmussen Reports will be locked in telling us what's happening in the greater overall political landscape and how we can preserve the MAGA movement going forward. As you heard yesterday on the program, pretty obvious what happens if we lose in 2028, if we allow Democrats to take back control is that one, they will put President Trump in prison. Two, they will put all the rest of us in jail. They will not stop and they will open our borders. They will make sure that they do this thing permanently this time because the election landscape
Starting point is 00:00:56 for Democrats looks abysmal. So we gotta make sure that we are locked in. Election day in Wisconsin and Florida, locking in Donald Trump, locking in with Barack Obama. Say what again? Donald Trump saying he wants to run against Barack Obama in a rematch, effectively? Because it was Trump running against Obama's ghost in 2016. We'll check in on all of it. But this is Trump at the White House along with Bill Maher. Can you believe that? Dana White and Kid Rock. All of them had dinner at the White House last night.
Starting point is 00:01:29 We'll bring you updates from that. My name is Benny Johnson and this is The Benny Show. As we exercise the demons in the economy, as we get back to the actual bedrock, real economy, there's going to be a little bit of short-term pain, as they say. There's going to be a little bit of transience, as they say. Financial experts don't like that word. And certainly, as you've seen, probably in your retirement accounts or in the stock market or crypto market, there's ups and downs right now. Make sure, ladies and gentlemen, that you are on the upward side of the trajectory, that you are getting yourself out of debt, that you are climbing up and out of some of the bad things that happened to the economy over the last four years.
Starting point is 00:02:10 For instance, the highest spike in inflation in American history, the largest collapse in real incomes based on inflation in American history. Ladies and gentlemen, if you are in debt, frankly, it's not your fault. There's a lot of high expenses out there right now. A lot of people carrying credit card debt, including, well, a lot of people carrying credit card debts of plus 20% interest rates. This kind of stuff should be criminal, quite frankly, in my opinion. American financing can help you. It can help you in a 10-minute phone call save an average of $800 a month. That's exactly how homeowners across America are making sure that they get back on their feet. It's a simple no-obligation call, and it can change everything.
Starting point is 00:02:53 They have a team, salary-based mortgage consultants. There isn't any incentive to lock you into a loan that doesn't make sense. Call American Financing today to feel relief from the Biden economy. 888-528-1219, 888-528-1219, AmericanFinancing.net slash Benny. Every time I see these old clips of Joe Biden, I'm like, what have we gone through? It's like a bad dream. You can't really fathom how the country could have gone so sideways so quickly. You watch Joe Biden like doddering around this fake Oval Office. You see him like falling up the stairs or across a flat surface. Everyone's saying he fell up the stairs.
Starting point is 00:03:32 There's one time he was walking at the Air Force Academy. It was a flat stage and he just fell right on his face. It's like you watch these clips and you're like, what did we just go through? We can't ever let that happen again. But these people, they're desperate and they're going to try as hard as they possibly can to rig these elections. That's why the elections in Florida and in Wisconsin are so important. In Wisconsin, you have a situation where the Supreme Court may well redraw all of the districts in order to ensure that Republicans can't get seats in the House
Starting point is 00:04:05 of Representatives, lose seats in the House of Representatives. The districts across America are gerrymandered within an inch of their lives, mostly based actually on an evil organization founded by Barack Obama and Eric Holder that sue states based on civil rights grounds, a little trick that they learned. They could sue states that are trying to redistrict saying that you're disenfranchising a black person. You're disenfranchising some minority. And so you better carve districts out.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Show me the state of Illinois. State of Illinois is a great example. You better carve out congressional districts in these states that look like you took a pot of wet spaghetti and just chucked it up against your wall. These are like the they're atrocious districts all across America. It's often these is not the congressional districts climb. Those are the counties buddy. These are congressional these
Starting point is 00:04:57 like gerrymandered congressional districts they have robbed Republicans of seats, probably about 20 seats. I'm going to ask Mark, Mark Mitchell about this. How many Republican seats should we have in the house versus what we do have based on Democrat lawfare and based on their inability, uh, to actually draw correct and fair lines inside of these congressional districts. It's atrocious. And they're trying to do this in Wisconsin and they're going to do it if they win this Supreme Court seat tonight. And so it's why we're going to spend a lot of professional muscle on this, is how they rig the game.
Starting point is 00:05:31 And the other way that they rig the game is by counting criminal aliens in the census. If you have a criminal alien, there is no way to figure out if that person is an American citizen or not based on the current census information. Look at this congressional district. Look at that congressional district in Illinois. Look at these things. Look at that periwinkle blue one. Swipe over to the other map.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Thank you. What the hell is that? That, like, little line that shoots through the state like a tapeworm. What the hell is that? That like little line that shoots through the state like a tapeworm. What the F is that thing? Illinois is famous for this, right? What about the one on top of it, right? That like has all those little carvings there. What they're trying to do here is they take little towns that vote like lightly Democrat.
Starting point is 00:06:25 They don't want to give Republicans extra seats. So they chop the state up like this. Looks like a Jackson Pollock painting. They carve the state up in a way like those blue districts right there in the center of the state. Those should be Republican seats, but they grab little pockets of population. Then Barack Obama comes in with Eric Holder and they sue the state. They say, oh, there's a disenfranchised black person here. There's a disenfranchised little population here.
Starting point is 00:06:54 If you don't put them in a Democrat district, they'll be disenfranchised by a racist Republican. And that's how they do it. They sue on civil rights grounds and Republicans are so scared of being called racist that they actually allow this stuff to happen. This is what they're going to do in Wisconsin.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Wisconsin, geez. Is Wisconsin really that left? No, actually. Wisconsin has two population centers, Madison, Milwaukee, that do vote left, but the entire state of Wisconsin is a massive red state. Here's the apportionment. Look at these maps. Look at this map for Illinois. Look at this thing. Wisconsin is a giant red, is a massive red state. Here's the apportionment. Look at these maps.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Look at this map, Illinois. Look at this thing. This is a nightmare. How many Republican seats are there really? Because if you look at an actual map of America, you'll see we live in a red country with teeny little blue dots in it. It's literally sitting right on the wall, right there.
Starting point is 00:07:42 It's that giant red country. I love how it's blown out a little bit too. So you can't actually, so it's like kind of, it's fuzzy because of the aperture, right there. It's that giant red country. I love how it's blown out a little bit too. So you can't actually, so it's like kind of, it's fuzzy because the aperture of the camera. Look at this. It's a red country. You can see teeny blue dots, little bits on the coast. The entire country is actually red.
Starting point is 00:07:59 According to studies, there should be like 50 seats for Republicans if you got rid of criminal aliens in the census that gives apportionment to States that shouldn't have it. And if you got rid of all gerrymandering, if you just did a pure algorithmic based on population mapping, and I'd be totally okay with computers doing it. I would be, I'd be okay with AI doing it. Where you just map based on population centers. Okay, so here's a block of people. There's a square. Here's a block of people. Here's a square.
Starting point is 00:08:31 They should be your congressional districts should be as sharp of 90 degree angle lines as possible. And not look like this. Again, it's like a, there's like a Tetris abomination. Like bizarro world, berserker mode Tetris. This is what's at stake in Wisconsin. This is how Democrats, then look at the Chicago area.
Starting point is 00:08:53 Look at how many extra seats they get in Chicago. Of course, Chicago is a big population center. Look at how many extra Democrats come from Chicago because of this method. Look at all that. Just zoom in. Zoom in on Chicago, please. Look at all that. Just zoom in. Zoom in on Chicago, please. Look at all the layering that happens there. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. As many Democrats as they can possibly shove into that little node, they do. What is that?
Starting point is 00:09:16 An extra 10 Democrat seats? Definitely. An extra 10 Democrats? At least should be half that. This is the game. That's a foot, ladies and gentlemen. So ensure that this doesn't happen by winning these important races. And this is, again, what we are going to talk about today. I would be totally remiss, however, if I didn't explain that MAGA is going to win. MAGA is going to win for a couple of reasons. One, we have the actual structural systems now at place to turn out votes. You heard Turning Point Action's Tyler Boyer yesterday on the program talking about this.
Starting point is 00:09:57 We're going to talk with Scott Pressler live on this show about it. Two, there is just energy. There's a palpable energy on our side that is now cultural for the first time in our lives. I want to play this clip of Kid Rock at the White House last night. It's great, and we're going to totally miss it if we keep going into the show because we're going to talk about the election and the entire rest of the show. It's like Kid Rock at the White House wearing this baller outfit. I need as many photos of Kid Rock
Starting point is 00:10:25 in this outfit as possible. Okay, producers, go. ALX, go get them. Look at that outfit. This is what I voted for. We don't even need to play the clip, but we're going to. This is what I voted for.
Starting point is 00:10:38 This Kid Rock wearing a red, white, and blue American Eagle splattered outfit in custom American leather. Donald Trump sitting there with the Gulf of America behind him. Let's make this as big as possible, please. Gulf of America map behind him and a massive giant golden wheel that spins on an axis, which is like the golden wheel of time that's handed to Trump because of the World Cup. So here we go. Here's Donald Trump in the White House,
Starting point is 00:11:06 is flanked by Kid Rock, roasting reporters, and talking about our movie. Again, you've never seen, not Reagan, not Theodore Roosevelt, you've never seen anything like this. You've never seen, just really quickly before we play the clip, look at this closeup of Kid Rock. Look at this, it's perfect. You guys.
Starting point is 00:11:27 It's so good. This is real. This is not AI. I get it. There's plenty of AI images out. It's not AI. Kid Rock is going to perform at America's 250th birthday celebration and getting executive orders signed in the White House. What a timeline, man. What an incredible timeline. Okay, here we go. Here's Donald Trump with Kid Rock in the White House taking questions. Go.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Thanks, John. See you. He signed it. That was good. Okay, ready, everybody? Thank you, Peter. Good stuff. You better do well with this. He's going to do it, make sure everything is nice and clean. Make America funnier.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Because you're not in a clean industry. Hold that up. Okay? Thank you everybody. Thank you, press. Head it out this way., everybody. Thank you, Chris. Thank you, Chris. Head it out this way. Thanks, everybody. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:12:28 All right, all right. So that's the B-roll. We have Trump taking a couple questions. Let's go. Let's go to that one. It's Trump versus Peter Doocy. There you go. Did Biden do news conferences like this, Peter?
Starting point is 00:12:40 I don't think so. No. He was never standing next to somebody who looked like they were about to be shot out of a cannon. Wouldn't have worked out. He was never standing next to somebody who looked like they were about to be shot out of a cannon. That's great. Evil Knievel is awesome. Not since you've had Elvis in the White House, I think. Right, Elvis with Nixon? Have you seen anything like this? I believe that there's such deep and rich cultural energy for
Starting point is 00:13:06 the first time we've had power before the movements have the freedom movements had power before we just never had cultural energy look at the close-up of kid rock's rings oh this is great look at that he's got the kid rock ring in the detroit that's the det Tigers D, right? Yeah, there you go. Okay. It's great. This is why I think we're going to win. I mean, people are, especially as Americans, we're inborn. We're hard-coded with this attraction to grandiose and to the living large, to the risk-takers, and to the rule large, to the risk takers, and to the rule breakers. Here's Elvis in the White House, just for reference.
Starting point is 00:13:52 I think that Kid Rock actually outdid Elvis, to be quite honest with you. That's great. Okay. So President Trump, pivoting off of all of the news that we made yesterday, announcing that President Trump will be running for a third term. Very exciting and banger of a show yesterday. And we want to say hearts out to the chat. We love you. President Trump answering questions about this. Will I run against Barack Obama? He was doing this from the Oval Office desk. And he was asked, like, wait a second, if presidents can run for third terms,
Starting point is 00:14:31 clearly, clearly, maybe you and Obama could run against each other. And Trump's response is, again, rings like a bell. Let's go. If you are allowed for some reason to run for a third term, is there a thought that the Democrats could try to run Barack Obama against you? I'd love that. Or his third term. I'd love that. That would be a good one. I'd like that. No, people are asking me to run and there's a whole story about running for a third term. I don't know. I never looked into it. They do say there's a way you can do it, but I don't know about that. Well, certainly sounds like he's thinking about it, at least. OK, and we're going to see how durable the MAGA movement actually is in the special elections that will be happening today in Florida and in Wisconsin.
Starting point is 00:15:21 So let's go ahead and check in here. Florida early numbers looking great, looking spectacular. So we got overperformance in two Florida congressional districts. The reason why there are elections in these Florida congressional districts, Matt Gaetz's retirement. Matt Gaetz went on and said, I'm leaving Congress, right? Bowed out. He's going to be attorney general. He's going to potentially serve in Trump cabinet. He now has a show on One American News. So Matt Gaetz out. So this is his district, Florida 1. You can see here an absolute dominant performance by Republicans, plus 18 points. Florida 6, you have Mike Waltz. Mike Waltz, who's got a little bit of infamy behind him now for the
Starting point is 00:16:04 signal group chat situation. That's an officially dead story, right? They were going to try and do that as Russiagate 2.0. That story has got a bullet in the back of its head. It's done. Nobody's going to talk about it. We talked about it for two days just to do our very best to grind down the fake news.
Starting point is 00:16:22 And we won. We won. Nothing happened. It's not a bunch of hacks like filed a lawsuit and went to judge Boatsburg, whatever, man, whatever, nothing, nothing, nothing doing. So we beat, we beat the machine. What's the point? The point about kid rock wearing the outfit in the oval office. We have such large cultural momentum now. This was, by the way, Bill Maher. This was a meeting with Bill Maher, Dana White, and Kid Rock in the White House. Kid Rock speaking this morning on Fox News. Grab that clip. I love that clip. I'm shocked that isn't in the script. Kid Rock
Starting point is 00:17:01 talking about this meeting on Fox News this morning. Bill Maher is one of the most seething, visceral, venomous, angry, bitter, anti-Trump, deranged lunatics that exist. He's called Trump every single name in the book. This side of Hitler, Nazi, Mussolini, Stalin, dictators, left can't get it straight. They want to bring Stalinism and Maoism to this country, but they still see them as evil guys. Or do they? I'm not sure. Ask a leftist if Karl Marx is actually an evil person. Karl Marx, the single greatest butcher of all human history.
Starting point is 00:17:36 No one, no single man has killed more people than Karl Marx. And that makes Dr. Fauci incredibly jealous. So here we go, ladies and gentlemen. And that makes Dr. Fauci incredibly jealous. So here we go, ladies and gentlemen, Florida numbers looking great. This is the last hour of Florida numbers. We have three hours into the election in Florida. Florida six. Again, this is Randy Fine, who will be joining the program live here in just a just a just a few minutes, actually. Landy Fine is getting everything he could have dreamed of and more. Turnout is booming. Republicans are coming out en masse. 19,000 ballots were cast through 10 a.m. The composite of these ballots were a whopping plus Republican 36. This pushes
Starting point is 00:18:21 the overall electorate. I was reading that. This pushes the overall electorate to R plus 13, and we are likely going to sail upwards towards R plus 18 at the end of the day. Massive numbers from Republicans today in Florida six. So Florida doing its job. Florida locking in. Again, Florida 6 is now in the plus 13, plus 14 range. Randy Fine running there for Mike Waltz's seat. Going to be replacing Mike Waltz's seat, as they say. Randy Fine is definitely, I think, going to be fine in his current position. As is Jimmy Petronas, who was on the show yesterday. He's going to be running for Matt Gaetz's seat. He wants to join the Doge caucus, and we think that's dope. Wisconsin is where we're going to have some real trouble today.
Starting point is 00:19:12 I'm not saying that we're doomed or anything. I'm just saying that we're going to have—it's a much tighter race. The betting markets are favoring the liberal candidate, and Brad Schimel—Brad Schimel, Brad Schimel, Brad Schimel is who you should vote for if you're in Wisconsin, is the man running for the Supreme Court who has Trump's endorsement, who obviously has Elon Musk's endorsement, and who stands in the balance to flip the Supreme Court in Wisconsin in favor of either left or right. What's at stake here? Let's jump into the Wisconsin numbers. Wisconsin is a decentralized
Starting point is 00:19:49 election state, which means every county-level turnout data is just not available on election day. That sucks. The best that we can do is glue together precinct voter numbers to gauge whether or not the turnout is high, and it's a very terrible in exact science. So all we've got, if you voted today in Wisconsin and you know what the numbers were, feel free to post it here along with special award and precinct numbers. I hope to get a hold of the individual awards later in the day and give us some kind of direction, low, high, modest. The exact numbers we have in Florida are simply not available in Wisconsin. Let's hop on over to the new Trafalgar polls here for the Supreme Court in Wisconsin. You are looking at a dead heat, a direct tie, an absolute lock in here. So you have Brad Schimel, again, Republican Trump endorse candidate,
Starting point is 00:20:46 is down by less than a point here, or probably within the margin of error, let's just say. All right, margin of error three, you have a dead heat. 50-50, just call it what it is. 50-50. From Tafalgar, which is, along with our friends at Rasmussen, the single most accurate pollsters in the country. Crawford leads early absentee. Schimel leads those who say they are likely to vote on Election Day. This is a standard operating procedure for Republicans versus Democrats. Let's go to Atlas Intel here. Atlas Intel shows a bit more of a gap. Looking forward to having Mark Mitchell from Rasmussen on to sort of analyze this. Whom will you vote for in the upcoming election
Starting point is 00:21:31 for Wisconsin Supreme Court? You have 52 versus 46. Again, not insurmountable. And also, I've never seen the activation like we saw, like we've seen for this race. Republicans are finally getting their act together and are not going to get their asses handed to them by these machines that have been built, these turnout voter machines by the Soros Foundation, but has been built through all this dark money, Democrat NGOs over the course of the last 20, 30 years when they took elections and turnouts seriously. And Republicans just said, oh, shucks, you know, we sure hope that it happens for us this time. People get pissed off and off and a tea party just springs up out of nowhere. That's been the Republicans' hope.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Now it's become far more sophisticated. So we'll see, ladies and gentlemen. Trump is on the ballot. Future of the Republican Congress is on the ballot. Wanted to bring you Kid Rock this morning talking about the esprit de corps of meeting with President Trump and Bill Maher. I have a feeling that like we're going to get a lot more out of this. But here's Kid Rock making some news this morning about his dinner last night with Bill Maher. 100%. 100%. Me and Dana both said there was like, there's never been that's ever, ever met the president
Starting point is 00:22:48 in any scenario that's walked away without saying like, wow, what a great guy, so funny, so engaging, he's so smart. And absolutely, Bill even said to me, you know, after that, he goes, wow, that was, you know, everybody's mind was kind of blown. Even the president's, I think, as the president called me late night, last night, and you know, everyone was a little suspect about going into this and even the president kind
Starting point is 00:23:08 of alerted me a little bit like what do you got me doing right i go man we're just trying to show people that you know even though we've been pretty hard on each other that when you get face to face maybe we could have a little more civility in this country and try to bring people together. And that was my whole intention. You know, I really hope that there are more photos and more videos and that there was something perhaps filmed. There was maybe like a interview that happened with Bill Maher at the White House. Because this is an important cultural moment, I think it's probably the most valuable thing that President Trump is doing is it's not enough. I think it's probably the most valuable thing that President Trump is doing is,
Starting point is 00:23:47 it's not enough, it's not enough to just, if you're trying to win a battle, you can't just march forward with what you have. You have to take from the enemy. And whether you're in a cage match with somebody, whether you're on a, like, physically marching across a battlefield, whether it's a digital warfare,
Starting point is 00:24:06 you have to take resources from them. You have to starve them out. You have to wound them. You have to remove their capacity to attack you. By placating Bill Maher, they are taking, Donald Trump is taking an asset from the left. He's drinking their milkshake. I drink your milkshake. It's genius. It's genius to do so with Dana White and Kid Rock, who are also just cultural icons. We'll be going to the UFC next week in Miami, and we look forward to broadcasting from there and bringing you a ton of content with UFC in Miami next week,
Starting point is 00:24:41 a ton of patriotic fighters. It's a great, incredible vibe, and very special guests will be there. The point is that this is how winning is done. But if we lose these special elections, Republicans lose and take their eye off the ball and get like surprise Democrat victories in these special elections, then you're right back. You go right back to the loser Republican Party we've known for the last 30 years, who've sacrificed and given up all of the territory. So Trump meeting with Bill Maher, I love it. Some influencers don't love it, but I love it. Trump's taking back territory from the left. President Trump, I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:25:24 I don't know. There's a lot going on. But President Trump saying that he wants to run against Obama, is that what this was about? This? Is that what this was about? Like when they were both like sitting there laughing together, like chuckling, having a great time? Like, is this what was happening here? Wait, what are they talking about 2028 when they run against each other again i say that again they haven't technically run against each other remember george bush what an asshole that guy he didn't even shake trump's hand bush didn't shake his hand mike wasn't there they all look so nervous in fact it was only obama that seemed to chill like he was ready to joke and talk and the two of them had like a great time they were like laughing they all look so nervous. In fact, it was only Obama that seemed to chill,
Starting point is 00:26:08 like he was ready to joke and talk. And the two of them had like a great time. They were like laughing. What's this about? Now Trump's talking about how he'd love to run against Barack Obama in the White House for a third term. Very interesting. We're never going to get any of it unless Republicans lock in and create a durable majority. And the only way to do that is to win races, especially local races, special races, to keep the energy up. Oh, wow. Is that Barack Obama in D.C. this morning? Would you look at that? Barack Obama, the only president in history that never left D.C. Look at that. Is Obama just like wandering around with a Secret Service? Hmm. The only president in history that never left D.C.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Bought a house a mile from the White House. Bought himself a mansion a mile from the White House. A place called Colorama. The fanciest neighborhood in Washington. How do you afford all this? It really makes you wonder. How do you buy all these private properties and all these beaches, all these private islands? Yeah, it really just makes you wonder.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Where's the cash flow come from? Man, Michelle Obama saying that she's very suspicious of people who take more than they need in her DNC convention speech. Oh, man. Nobody's listening to Michelle Obama, take more than they need in our DNC convention. Oh man, nobody's listening to Michelle Obama, especially on her YouTube channel. Oh, that's an exciting, we don't have time.
Starting point is 00:27:35 We don't have time to go there. We don't have time to go there. We went there with Megyn Kelly, but ladies and gentlemen, we do have time to go to Mark Mitchell, our favorite pollster, the man who is the most correct man. Go to the cas go to Mark Mitchell, our favorite pollster, the man who is the most correct man. Go to the casinos with Mark Mitchell. Do it. There's plenty of casinos in New Jersey
Starting point is 00:27:50 where he lives. Go to the casinos with Mark Mitchell. He's the most correct and accurate predictor in all of America. He's the head pollster for Rasmussen. he joins the show live now. Go to the casinos with Mark. I wish it worked. I wish it worked. I lost 20 bucks on the slots at the Bellagio once and that's it. That's all I did. No more.
Starting point is 00:28:20 I'm no good at gambling, man, anyway. My entire life is a gamble, right? This everything, this show's a gamble. The company's a gamble. I did my entire life. I have four kids at gambling, man. Anyway, my entire life is a gamble, right? This shows a gamble. The company is a gamble. I have four kids, four and under. That's a gamble. And my entire life is just full up on risk, okay? I'm full up on risk.
Starting point is 00:28:35 All right? I just buy gold. That's it. That's it. Okay. Buried in my backyard. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Well, you are the gold standard for pollsters. And there has been some very high. There's been some very, see that we call it the weave, Mark. There's been some very good polls that have come out for Brad Schimmel. If you look at the betting markets, you'd think that this was a totally lost cause. And then Trafalgar comes out over the top yesterday and says, actually, dead heat uh what are your thoughts on this Mark what are you seeing yeah I don't know I really have no idea how this is going to go there were so few polls I didn't get a chance to go into the field I applaud Trafalgar for putting this out shows Schimmel down to I think the margin of error is three points so it is a statistical dead heat. The problem is it's like
Starting point is 00:29:25 the reason the betting market's showing Schimel losing is because, hey, a bluish state, a special election, a must win. It's a pretty safe bet to bet against the Republican. It just is. And the other polling showed him down farther. So I really don't know. I know. I think that the right actually brought money into this fight. Unlike, you know, the normal, atypical. That's my understanding is that some people came in. There was some national money that got put to bear. So maybe and then on top of that, we have like a huge get out the vote effort. So I think it'll be a squeaker if the Republicans win.
Starting point is 00:29:59 But again, it's like looking at these races. Also, the one in Pennsylvania, a big embarrassment. But again, not that big a deal of a race. But the question is, the reason we're all talking about this now is that Donald Trump built a really great machine for getting Donald Trump elected. And what I'm talking with candidates all over the country, like MAGA candidates that want to get involved, that say they're establishment Republican people are just rhinos, they're not running on principle, they have a hard time breaking into it because the money, the national Republican money goes to establishment candidates because they get the consulting package, everybody gets their palms greased. And that problem has not been fully corrected.
Starting point is 00:30:43 So you're saying that it is non-transferable and that's been a problem. That's been a problem that we've seen in these elections, uh, that, that the Trump, that the Trump glitter, right. The, the, the Trump golden touch is non-transferable. Now we have only ever seen a president Trump badly battered and wounded after a January 6th psyops and after a 2020 election shenanigans. And so like, when you look at like a Carrie Lake race, which seems like some of one of the large kind of beacons of like, wow, why didn't she win? You know, maybe, maybe the Trump endorsement isn't transferable. I think there's so many other things happening in the landscape here.
Starting point is 00:31:28 What I'd like to ask you about- He has a great endorsement record, but the problem is, is that they're not flooding the zone with a pipeline of America first principled candidates in a way that is changing the Republican establishment
Starting point is 00:31:43 all over the country. Because I can tell you from the polling, J.D. Vance does well, but he trails Trump. And that's a problem. Yeah. I mean, right. So this election in 2024, it seemed like the table was reset to a degree, winning all the swing states, very dominant performance. You're the only man in America that predicted the popular vote.
Starting point is 00:32:05 You were dead on. You worked completely correct. And I mean, I think that you can you can effectively based on that, based on modern elections, call that a landslide, certainly in the Electoral College, definitely with a Republican winning the popular vote. I mean, when the hell was the last time that even happened? I'm not sure. I agree. One hundred percent. Yeah. So is this a new Trump, I guess, right? Is there going to be
Starting point is 00:32:29 more durability in the MAGA movement and votes? Is there going to be more transferability of that movement versus the Trump 2016, which according to Donald Trump himself, like we weren't even planning on winning, right? Yeah. I don't want to be a doomer. I don't want to be a doomer. The Wisconsin race is important because of the implications for redistricting in the House. OK. And also, you know, Donald Trump is running a very different administration than he did in the past. And so I think the sky's the limit here with what they're uncovering and the things that they could do to the economy. You know, we'll all have to wait and see. But then there are also very structural reasons why the Republicans are going to have an advantage going forward. I'm just talking about, well, I don't know if America first policies are going to be the ones at the in the driver's seat. You know, they will as long as Trump's in the Oval Office.
Starting point is 00:33:20 But, you know, 2026, like, look at the Democrats right now. They're lost in the woods. There's like an internal rift between sort of this establishment like Schumer type that's been in politics and knows the game and wants to win. And then there's this other very vocal thing like that new influencer Congresswoman candidate that's running that they think winning is symbolic losses. And so, you know, they would rather lose, but saying we need to tax billionaires, they would rather lose by saying, well, like all the stuff, right. And that's not, that's not a viable path forward for them. There's a huge rift, and none of the candidates are polling very well. There's no heir apparent on the Democrat side whatsoever. And then on top of that, you have all the things that might come out of the Trump administration that we haven't seen yet.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Like we already suspect that Act Blue is under incredible problems. Like they brought the left in federal elections, according to Grok, brought as much as nine or or $10 billion to bear across all the different funding sources and in all the different races in the 2024 election. Are they going to lose some of that? That's important. That could be a really big thing, and we haven't seen what the FEC is going to do, what the FCC is going to do. We haven't seen what election integrity investigations are going to do. I think all that can have a huge impact, and then the maps look good in 2026 as well. So glad you brought it back blue. And I want to get to Trump's overall approval numbers and great, you know, jump down into what people approve of inside of
Starting point is 00:34:58 this administration, because actually the most positive numbers in America, we've never seen anything. We've never seen an administration this popular and this withstanding of new attacks. But since you brought up ActBlue, can you just, because you know this profession, Mark, and this does get into the weeds a little bit, ActBlue, WinRed, the consultancies and how the actual campaign operations,
Starting point is 00:35:23 gears and sausages are all made. Can you explain what would happen to congressional Democrats and Democrats wishing to run for office at scale if Act Blue went under and or or was what it's looking like was found to be a criminal organization that must be shut down? Well, I'll say in the 2016 cycle, my understanding is they raised about $800 million for the Democrats. In the 2018 cycle, which was one of our biggest misses, we really under-emphasized the Dem performance there. They raised $1.6 billion in a midterm cycle. And so they've been ramping up really fast and pumping a lot of money into Democrats. And you hear over and over again that the Democrats have this vast superiority with small dollar donations. Well, it turns out that it's probably all laundered money
Starting point is 00:36:16 smurfed through one of 300 different organizations. And I think the right does this well, only to a lesser extent. And ActBlue is the big one they're the 800 pound gorilla and they've been plugged into every one of these organizations and essentially act as like a little money fairy that comes around and sprinkles massive amounts of dollars into campaigns and ngos and stuff like that and then i think it raises a bigger question like where is all of this money coming from if it's not from all of the fake small dollar donations the people in like west virginia in a trailer that donated 15 000 times the democrats so my understanding from people i've talked to is there are multiple state investigations already ongoing into act blue
Starting point is 00:36:56 however that potentially the massive resignation of seven people including their general counsel was probably triggered by some type of like federal look into the company. So we'll see. But that's going to be a big one that could cut off billions, just completely cut it off. Yeah, I mean, money like the money that's probably getting dumped into Wisconsin right now. Yes, that's right. Exactly right. All the USAID money meant for trans newts in Somalia. And it's gone right into the Supreme Court race. OK, there's a there's a there's a.
Starting point is 00:37:35 There are some really bright, regardless of what happens in Wisconsin today. There's some really bright spots for the administration. President Trump, especially after this sole signal gate debacle, it seems like they threw everything they possibly could. I mean, that was like a layup to really damage the administration, to scalp a number of like high level targets. Hey, we got rid of Vance. We damaged Vance forever and we got rid of Head Seth and we got rid of the NSC advisor. What was the result after all of that donald trump's approval went up a point it's like uh i mean really to be honest with you i was 51 today but you're right if you look at google trends there was a massive spike in searches for the term signal that's not organic that doesn't just rapidly uh randomly
Starting point is 00:38:26 happen like they were it was everywhere in the media i even went to reddit the politics subreddit and back on wednesday 18 out of the top 20 stories were about signal gate so they really thought they had trump this this time it's like the meme uh it's like honey bring your boyfriend they finally got trump and it's his approval rating was was the bold wojack meme yes exactly yeah i mean you know you got this vanity fair article out saying poll americans disapprove of trump's handling of pretty much everything but it's a fake narrative listen his his approval rating is not high by historical standards but it's not going to be in this kind of environment he came in about where biden came in and he's sitting at 51%.
Starting point is 00:39:05 I think that's where it's going to stay because they've thrown everything at him. This isn't first term where people actually thought, oh man, like Trump might be a Russian asset. And his approval rating got in the thirties. I don't think that's going to happen at all. And then of course, Biden has his Afghanistan problem. And so it's like, unless something of that magnitude happens to Trump, he's kind of just going to stay. Maybe he'll go into the high 40s. That's what I kind of predict. But that's really good because Obama spent a lot of time in the low 40s and high 30s even. So he's doing great.
Starting point is 00:39:35 And even on the issues, everybody's saying, oh, he's pulling horrible on the economy. Well, not according to us. We have him 30% excellent, 18% good. So that's 48% excellent or good on the economy, only 40% poor. And they're even trying to say that he's doing bad on immigration. I have him at 53% excellent or good, 40% excellent, only 33% poor. Like Biden, I don't think Biden even got into the 40s on anything. And so Trump's coming in and executing. And as we've said on your show before, you know, right track is still 45 percent, super high, higher than like ninety nine, ninety eight percent of all of our other polling. And that's it. People are
Starting point is 00:40:14 getting what they want. They're going to run. I think they're going to run PSYOP after PSYOP. Like every Tuesday, you're going to see a new one coming, you know, hitting and they're going to try again. And it's just not going to work. From March, I mean, I can't believe it, man. You are aligned. CBS is more right-wing than you, Mark. What have you done wrong, Mark? CBS saying 58% approve of Donald Trump immigration policies.
Starting point is 00:40:40 Yeah, we're not always the highest Trump number, and all it really takes is for a mainstream media outlet to have a $20 billion lawsuit, and then all of a sudden they're honest. I'm sick of having these fake news liberal pollsters on my show, okay? and all it really takes is for a mainstream media outlet to have a 20 billion dollar lawsuit and then all of a sudden they're honest i'm sick of having these fake news liberal pollsters on my show okay let's bring on someone from cbs quick okay quick get me cbs mark look i mean just showing like you're in line i mean obviously like this is a really like people love people do like what's happening now we gotta like actually lock it in and claim the victories right take on the battlefield mark is one of the people that actually shows us what the battlefield is you must know thy enemy you must know the real numbers mark's never ever
Starting point is 00:41:18 lied to this show and his numbers ring like a bell man again take the man to the casino if you're in atlantic city mark mitchell of last musin reports follow him and make sure that you're getting a lot of good information look at this we're getting you to 100k i'm doing we're doing it today we're doing it today let's get ready send tweet we're getting mark to 100k today send a tweet mark mitchell it's like my birthday thank you is it awesome no it's not it's like my birthday. Thank you. Is it awesome? No, it's not. It's like my birthday. You know, once you get over 40, you don't care about your birthday.
Starting point is 00:41:49 So this will this will just, you know, this will be this year's birthday. I'm staring down the barrel right now, man. I'm staring down the barrel. And I'm like, I was like, and I had these two little boys now. And it's like, I must extend the event horizon to where my boys can kick my ass. OK, I'm going to, I will be in shape. I will not let my boys tackle me to the ground.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Like I won't let it happen. Okay. It changes you, you know? So. Yeah. I still have, you know,
Starting point is 00:42:17 my oldest is 12 and I still have, I think, uh, eight or 10 years before that happened. So every big five lifting program, and then you're fine. Every father's struggle. That's right. God bless you, Mark. Thank you, man. Thank you. Thank you. Godspeed. Ladies and gentlemen, we got to hop right on over to
Starting point is 00:42:41 Scott Pressler, who is joining us from Wisconsin. Let's freaking go. Scott, no introduction needed. Everybody knows who you are. I'm somewhat upset that we don't have like the full Legolas hair today, but that's something that I'm not really gonna worry about. Okay? We're're like, we'll go full Legolas when we win the battle for Helms deep, which is where we're at right now. So the odds are against you, Scott, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:43:14 Well, this is wartime, Scott, Benny wartime. Scott doesn't have time to do his hair. We will do our hair after victory. After the polls close today at 8 p.m. Wisconsin Standard Time. But really, I want to tell you what is at stake in this election and why I drove eight hours to Wisconsin and why I've spent nearly two weeks here doing everything I can to get out the vote. I want to be clear to every Trump supporter out there in all 50 states, you should be talking about this election today. Our candidate is conservative Brad Schimel running for the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Now I want to remind the listener at home, two years ago, I went to Wisconsin and the
Starting point is 00:44:01 court flipped from conservative to liberal. Wisconsin elected leftist Janet Protasewicz to the court, which flipped the court to liberal. And then what did they do? They redrew state maps and Republicans lost seats in the house, in the state house. They reinstated drop boxes and we lost Eric Hovde, who should be a 54th senator in the United States Senate right now. So these Supreme Court elections, Benny, have statewide and they have national implications. Now, even worse than Janet Protasewicz, what is at stake in this election? Hear me, MAGA. Hear me, America First.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Hear me, Trump supporters. If we don't elect Brad Schimel today by the close of the polls at 8 p.m. standard Wisconsin time, then the leftist court is going to redraw congressional maps, you will likely lose Republican Derek Van Orden and Brian Steele over in Janestown, Janesville. He is also at risk of being redistricted by the leftist liberal court. So make this election not just about Brad Schimel. Make this election about President Donald Trump, that he should not just have two years to govern, like in his first administration, but he deserves all four years. And that means that we must protect his ability to keep a Republican majority in the House of Representatives so he can govern, so he can legislate, so he can have the power of the purse, so he can do investigations. All of that is on the line. And I humbly ask for every
Starting point is 00:45:53 Wisconsinite, you talk to every person you know, and you get them out to vote for Brad Schimel, for Brittany Kinzer, so we can have school choice, Benny, and yes to voter ID. And we will enshrine voter ID into the Wisconsin state constitution. Mic drop. Mic drop. So there was a mic drop on election night in 2024. You helped facilitate the victory in Pennsylvania, but Wisconsin was also very important. Yeah, Wisconsin.
Starting point is 00:46:23 This was a, this was a key to unlock the entire Midwest. And the results were razor thin. Trump did win, but we lost a Senate seat that should have gone again to Eric Hovday. And we have the map here. I mean, it's crazy. The results. I mean, it's it's not. I mean, it's not the kind of margins that you want to see.
Starting point is 00:46:43 So it's 40. It's like put it up. Forty nine to to 48. It's like less than a point. Scott was the Donald Trump versus Kam I can tell you that earlyvoteaction.com, we have texted 450,000 voters across Wisconsin, peer-to-peer texting. Thank you at home, the volunteer that has been texting every single day. And we aren't just focusing on places like Milwaukee or Madison. No, Benny, this is base turnout. What does that mean? That means we need high margins in the WOW counties, which are Waukesha, Ozaukee, and Washington.
Starting point is 00:47:36 That also means that we need high turnout in the BOW counties. Those are Brown, aka Green Bay, and Outagamme, which is Appleton, and Winnebago. Now, Benny, there was a little rally that happened the other day with this guy named Elon Musk. He happened to come to Green Bay. Why did he come there? That's the Fox Valley. We need those cities to come out, which is why, bow, we just finished a list of 150,000
Starting point is 00:48:04 voters within the last 12 hours. And as soon as I'm done with you, we are going to be uploading more names to early vote action. So you at home can help. I don't care if you're in Cali, Texas, wherever you are. If you're in Florida, you need to go vote today. But download the free early vote action application. It's on iPhone. It's on Android. And I ask you to send 20 text messages. If 7,500 volunteers each send 20 text messages, that's 150,000 more names that we can get done before the close of the polls today. And I need your help.
Starting point is 00:48:41 We need Brad Schimel. We need Brittany Kinzer. We need voter ID. And we need this win in Wisconsin today, Benny. Is it overstating it to say that President Trump's ability to actually govern is at stake here? Because if they redraw these maps, then Democrats will simply impeach him on day one. If they have a one seat majority in the House, Democrats will just impeach Trump every week.
Starting point is 00:49:02 Guys, if you like Trump, this election should speak to you. Benny just said it to you. So here's what will happen. Let me put the, let me make this crystal clear. We don't win today. They will redraw the maps. We will likely lose the House. And on day one of 2027, they will impeach President Trump. And you are going to see the impeachment circus that started in 2019 rev up again. You are going to see our ability to have a good budget. All of those cuts that you like to see from Doge Etc all those cuts are going to be reinstated you're going to see funding of Ukraine you're going to see funding of our enemies that despise everything of what it means to be an American citizen you're not going to see money
Starting point is 00:49:56 to secure the border you're not going to see money for Border Patrol or border security all of your dreams and hopes and visions everything everything that we worked tirelessly to achieve on November 5th, 2024 is gone. You lose this election. We likely lose the house. They're going to impeach the president or at least try to, and he will be a lame duck president. President Trump deserves to have all four years. And that's why, Benny, I dropped everything. I should be in Pennsylvania. I should be in New Jersey right now. But no, I'm in Wisconsin because this is the single most important election this year. Wartime Scott is telling you, you must come out and vote for Brad
Starting point is 00:50:38 Schimel today. Please, please. You're in the great white north. You're standing on the wall. We have a photo, actually, of Scott in the field right now. This is Scott door knocking. And we just want to say thank you for manning the wall against the Canadians that wish to – the white walkers up in Canada that wish to storm our great land here. Scott, very quickly, very quickly, talk us through your work in New Jersey and what can happen in that state. I know there's a lot of buzz there. Everybody was amazed at what happened in Pennsylvania. You told the truth. You did the work. Where are your targets?
Starting point is 00:51:17 Wisconsin today. What's tomorrow? Well, after hopefully we have victory today, April 1st, Brad Schimel, Wisconsin, then I will be returning to Pennsylvania and New Jersey. And we just got data. I'm not even posting about the data today. Today's Wisconsin Day. But apparently the Democrats added like 500 voters in the last month and Republicans added like 5,000 voters. Now, I want to remind the listener at home that the election- Where? In New Jersey? Where?
Starting point is 00:51:49 Statewide in New Jersey. Statewide in New Jersey. Yeah. So the listener at home that 2021 was decided in New Jersey by 80,000 votes. So think about it. In one month, you have already carved out 5,000 of those 80,000 that a statewide election was decided by. And since 2021, in the last four years, Republicans have gained 145,000 voters. Democrats have lost 40,000 voters. What I'm telling you is that with the state voting
Starting point is 00:52:20 double digits for Joe Biden, New Jersey, and coming within six percentage points for President Trump against Kamala in the 2024 election, New Jersey is in play. And so my organization, Early Vote Action, we will be courting 21, this is a 21-county strategy. I've already been to 10 of them. As soon as we're done with Wisconsin, I'm going to do the other 10. And we're going to spend the entire summer at the shore. We are going to be courting every Guido, every Jim Tan Laundry, every mom and dad. No, we're going to have a great time getting out the vote. And I promise you, New Jersey is in play this November.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Guidos for Trump bumper stickers, man, would fly. I got to say, it would fly. Scott. Okay, here's Scott's organization, early vote action. Get in there, ladies and gentlemen. It's not too late. Get in there and help download the app. Follow Scott online. Scott has millions of followers, 2.2 million followers. His content is excellent and informative, and there's nobody who grinds harder than Scott to ensure that we have a freedom future and not a future of dirty communists that they want in Wisconsin.
Starting point is 00:53:30 So everybody get out and vote for Brad Schimel, Scott Pressler. Godspeed. Thank you, Benny. Go vote. Go vote. Ladies and gentlemen, it's an important moment to take pause and recognize that like Kid Rocks in the White House, RFK Jr. is in charge of America's health. We don't want to give up these victories. Giving the Democrats the House will give up these victories. It will be the impeachment circus all over again.
Starting point is 00:54:03 So don't give them up. Ensure that we are locked in. We're locked in in the new year. Maha is a big deal in my family. My nurse wife, Nurse Kate, loves Maha. And also she loves it when I'm healthy because I'm, well, not as grumpy and not as much of a jerk. You got to make sure that we are protecting ourselves. Health is wealth.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are rocking here as we await, one, a press conference from the press secretary at the White House, and two, as we await results in the great state of Florida,
Starting point is 00:55:45 where we call home and broadcast from, and we are honored to have somebody who's doing excellent work in this state and who will be, who will be the next great MAGA member of Congress in Washington, D.C., representing this fine state. Randy Fine joins us live. This is great. I was looking at the shot. I was like, this is great, Randy. Fantastic. There's a big MAGA hat.
Starting point is 00:56:17 You get in the car, you're planting yard signs. How's it going, sir? It's going great. We're actually just going from precinct to precinct. So sorry you're getting the in-car studio. Please. We're we're working hard through the tape. We just need conservatives to get out, go to my website, VoteRandyFine.com, find out where to vote and go and vote. Turnout's been very promising today, but we got to run through the tape, put up a big number for President Trump. Yeah, that's exactly right. I mean, like we can do it. We can do a
Starting point is 00:56:42 little touchdown dance because we're thrilled with these numbers. You've got to be you've got to be pretty excited. I mean, obviously, you have the Trump endorsement there. You're rocking the solid MAGA hat. I mean, it's not that that's like the MAGA hat you can see from like two thousand yards away. Right. I respect that. It's not the small letters, the big letters. So so you are seeing these early numbers and you can see those from far away, sir. It seems like turnout is roaring right now for Republicans in your district. Well, Republicans always told us they were going to turn out on Election Day and they're and they're proving that right now. You know, that's when they want to vote, particularly in a special election. So the ones that are voting are getting out. We're extremely excited by the first few
Starting point is 00:57:25 hours, but there's still a whole lot more left to vote. And so if they go to my website, voterandyfine.com, they can find their precinct. This election is in six counties. So each county has its own rules, its own precincts. They need to find their precinct and they need to go. And by the way, it only takes about two minutes to vote because there's only one thing to vote for. So you go in, you bubble next to my name and you leave. It's not a long ballot. So talk to me about Washington, D.C. You are heading up there. I know it's not polite for candidates to act cocky, but the numbers look great for you. You get to Washington, D.C. What's agenda number one
Starting point is 00:58:06 with President Trump? Well, look, I've got to be honest with you. I will answer the question, but I prefer not to count my chickens before they hatch. So we're very, very focused on just getting through seven o'clock. What I will say is this. Should I win tonight, I will go up there and there will be no more loyal soldier for President Trump's agenda. He's why I'm doing this. I believe that God saved his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, so that he could save the world. I think that was divine intervention. And I'm not going to get in the way of making that happen. You got to support the team captain.
Starting point is 00:58:37 We've learned that in Florida. The reason Florida went from a swing state to a red state is because we worked together as a team. And we need to do that with President Trump to show the country we can govern. And when we do that, we're going to end up taking over and increasing our majority and doing even better long term. And that's what I'm going to do. The state of Florida looked great for President Trump. Here was election night just a couple months ago, an absolutely dominant performance, Trump winning by 14 points in the state and
Starting point is 00:59:07 rolling in the counties where you are today. Currently, I'm not exactly sure where you are, Randy. Where are you broadcasting from right now? I'm in Volusia County right now. Volusia. Okay. All right. I wanted to be able to zero in here. This is something, obviously, that happens, as you just said, when the Republican Party has its own back and its supporters have its own back. If Democrats get a majority in Congress,
Starting point is 00:59:32 they'll impeach Trump. Like, instantly. They've proven this. They'll take Trump. They'll impeach him, right? Like, if we lose seats like yours, if we are asleep at the wheel, like, instantly,
Starting point is 00:59:47 you get an impeachment process like day one. The guy I'm running against, that's what he promises. That's how he markets. Wow. He says, elect me. We'll take control of Congress. We'll stop the Trump agenda and we'll impeach him. They don't hide what they want. That's the one thing you can count on on the left.
Starting point is 01:00:03 They tell you exactly what they're going to do. What amazes me is sometimes we don't believe them. But that's why our side's got to turn out today. They're angry because every time President Trump wins, they lose. They want open borders. See, we think we all want the same thing. We don't. We want to protect kids from boys going to the girls' bathroom or boys playing women's sports. They don't. So every time Trump wins, they lose. And that's why we've got to work hard, which is why conservatives need to go vote right now. They may not think they need to because, oh, President Trump's in charge, everything's great.
Starting point is 01:00:38 But that's not true. The majority in the House is super narrow. They need to go to my website, voterandyfine.com, find their polling place and go vote right now. They might even meet me at the polling place. I'm wandering around, going and talking to people. So in your personal experience with President Trump, tell me about it. Are you guys close friends? He's giving some amazing endorsements of you here here's uh here we're going to pop it up right here president trump said about you on true social yes and i don't want to overstate it but he has been an incredible supporter and i've been an incredible
Starting point is 01:01:16 supporter of him i was the second legislator in the florida legislature to endorse him against another florida person running for, which I took a lot of grief for. And I believe in what he does. I believe that not only does America need Donald Trump, but the world needs Donald Trump. I mean, many people know this. I'm Jewish, and I don't believe October 7th would have happened if Donald Trump was president. We need safety and security in the world, and that is what he brings. So I'm all in and I'm incredibly grateful. He tweeted it out yesterday. We did a teletown hall on Thursday. And I am super appreciative for what President Trump is doing for me. I won't ever forget it. And he does it. And he asked me to run because he knows that I'm not afraid to grab the sword, run up the hill and cut the head off
Starting point is 01:02:00 the dragon. And I've done it in the Florida legislature for eight years. And I'm going to do it for him when I get to Washington. You have two sons right is this correct you have two boys you do i do yes and there's there's been a bit of a resurgence they're texting me constantly yes a bit of a resurgence how are you doing dad how you doing dad yeah oh yeah um i don't have a problem with that with i don't have a problem with that with my kids. No. Yeah. They're they're boys, boys. Yes. And it's a good it's incredibly important to preserve masculinity for our boys and to preserve a society and culture that doesn't degrade them. And that doesn't view them as lesser than right or try and steal their masculinity from them. I think father of boys is such an important thing. And also because our party is embracing masculinity because Kid Rock's at the White House and Dana White at the White House last night, you're seeing young men actually
Starting point is 01:02:57 shift hard to the right. In fact, like harder than even their grandfathers. They're more right wing than their grandfathers, which I think is one of the best trends in america right now uh can you speak to that trend as a father boys should also apologize for being boys yeah sorry i didn't mean to cut yeah no i mean please the floor is yours can you speak to that trend and also are young people showing up and voting for you randy so what I would say is boys should not have to apologize for being boys. You know, I made a decision when my kids were born to take them to every national park. They love to get dirty. They want to swim in the lakes. They just want to get out there and go and be boys. We need to embrace that and tell them they have nothing to be ashamed
Starting point is 01:03:40 of. And so I'm really proud of my sons and all the support they've given me throughout this campaign. And yes, conservatives are turning out. We're so excited about the young people who've gotten involved in this because they know the Democratic plan is terrible. I mean, it's going to basically send us down a path we don't want to be on. Yes, it's true. Another parent right now speaking live from the White House press dais. Randy, you'll be up in D.C. soon. Godspeed, sir. Proud of you. And we're proud of you representing Florida. Godspeed. Thanks. Just everybody needs to vote. Thanks, buddy. Go vote. Go vote for Randy Fine. Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. At our southern border, there is more massive news. Southwest border crossings in March fell
Starting point is 01:04:20 to the lowest level in American history, down 94% from March of last year under President Biden, when 137,000 illegal aliens poured across our wide-open southern border. Thanks to President Trump's leadership, Border Patrol agents are now back to doing the jobs they signed up for, securing the border, rather than serving as travel agents for illegal aliens. The Los Angeles Times captured the Trump effect on the border with a recent article. Their headline read, California-Mexico border, once overwhelmed, is now nearly empty. With so
Starting point is 01:04:59 few migrants coming into the U.S., they wrote, shelters that once served migrants have completely closed. Deportations of illegal aliens who threaten the safety of the American people are also continuing at a rapid pace. Over the weekend, the United States military transferred a group of 17 violent criminals from the Tren de Aragua and MS-13 terrorist organizations to El Salvador. And an illegal alien who was released by the Biden administration into our country was just arrested in Georgia and charged with the horrific killing of Camelia Williams, a mother of five and grandmother. The suspect has now been indicted on charges of malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, rape, aggravated sexual battery, and necrophilia, which for those who don't know, necrophilia is a sexual obsession with a corpse. This sub-suspect was ordered to be
Starting point is 01:05:54 removed in July 2023, but the Biden administration allowed him to stay. This case represents the ruthless murderers, rapists, and pedophiles who Joe Biden and Democrats let into our country over the past four years through our southern border. They should have never been here in the first place. Keep this in mind the next time you see Democrats protesting future illegal alien removals from our country. President Trump is focused on fulfilling his greatest obligation to keep the American people safe and to defend our country from violent invaders. Looking ahead to tomorrow, April 2nd, 2025, will go down as one of the most important days in modern American history. Our country has been one of the most open economies in the world, and we have the consumer base hands down, the best
Starting point is 01:06:46 consumer base. But too many foreign countries have their markets closed to our exports. This is fundamentally unfair. The lack of reciprocity contributes to our large and persistent annual trade deficit that's gutted our industries and hollowed out key workforces. But those days of America, beginning tomorrow, being ripped off are over. American workers and businesses will be put first under President Trump, just as he promised on the campaign trail. The President's historic action tomorrow will improve American competitiveness in every area of industry, reduce our massive trade deficits, and ultimately protect our economic and national security. President Trump's economic vision is rooted in common sense.
Starting point is 01:07:33 America will offer companies the lowest taxes, energy costs, regulations, if they make their products right here in the United States and hire American workers for the job. It's simple. If you make your product in America, you will pay no tariffs. We have already seen a number of the largest companies in the world respond to this economic approach. For example, Project Stargate, led by Japan-based SoftBank and U.S.-based OpenAI, and Oracle announced a $500 billion private investment in the United States-based artificial intelligence infrastructure. Apple announced a $500 billion investment in U.S. manufacturing and training. Nvidia announced it will invest hundreds of billions of dollars over the next four years in U.S.-based manufacturing. And the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, TSMC, announced a $100
Starting point is 01:08:27 billion investment in U.S.-based chips and manufacturing. These are just a few of the investment announcements that have already been made, and it is clear that President Trump's America First approach is already working. In our new media seat today is Mark Halprin, the co-founder and editor-in-chief of Two-Way, a new live video platform that builds communities around interactive conversations with leaders and content creators from every subject area. Mark and his colleagues welcome all voices into discussions that are spirited but they highly in watch time hours since the platform began just last year. This is new media in its truest sense, allowing the people to ask questions, make comments, and be an active part of engagement on the most important issues facing the country and our world. With that, Mark, please kick us off and welcome to the briefing
Starting point is 01:09:16 room. Thank you, Caroline. Appreciate it. I would ask you a question about tariffs and then one from our members of our community about education. It's perceived by some that companies or countries, if they change their policies either before tomorrow or after tomorrow, can have the president alter what he's planning for that country or that sector. Is that a possibility? And if so, what factors does the president consider in making those changes? Well, the ultimate change for these companies in these countries, Mark, will happen when they decide to do business in the United States of America. And as I just laid out, they will face no tariffs at all if these companies choose to invest here in the United States and to move their production and their manufacturing
Starting point is 01:09:54 here to the United States as well. As for tomorrow, the President will be addressing the decades of unfair trade practices that have ripped our country off and American workers off. It has hollowed out our middle class. It has destroyed our heartland. And the president is focused on reshifting our global economy to ensure that America is once again the manufacturing superpower of the world.
Starting point is 01:10:13 But they do something today or later in the week that's a pledge for future activity. Would that be good enough potentially to alter the policy? Again, the president has been looking at the very unfair trade practices of the past. Certainly the president is always up to take a phone call, always up for a good negotiation, but he is very much focused on fixing the wrongs of the past and showing that American workers have a fair shake. So if someone calls after tomorrow and says, hey, I'm ready to make a change, he'd be open to that?
Starting point is 01:10:39 The president is always open to taking calls. A question from one of our community members. Katie Reeds is a school teacher in Wisconsin. She's taught K-3 in public, independent, private, and private schools. Here's what she wanted me to ask you. She says, I see the elimination of the Department of Education as an excellent first step in the improvement of our school
Starting point is 01:10:58 system. Do you see any further role the federal government can take beyond this, possibly in promoting the expansion of voucher programs or reducing the influence that teachers unions hold over our schools? Well, first of all, I want to thank Katie for her service to our country and our nation's children. Being a teacher is the most noble profession that we believe one can have. And the president said in his remarks when he signed the executive order to dismantle the Department of Education that he loves our teachers. And in part, this order is to empower our teachers to have greater decision making in the classroom. Nobody knows our nation's
Starting point is 01:11:36 children and our students better than our teachers who are with them every single day. As for the federal government's role to get to the heart of Katie's question, the president has made it clear to Linda McMahon that we need to find other places within our federal government for critical programs regarding education. Pell Grants, Title IX, lawsuits, et cetera, civil rights lawsuits, all of that are critical functions, special needs programs, nutrition programs. But there are other places throughout the federal bureaucracy where those things can happen and work. The Department of Education has been a very bloated bureaucracy. We spent trillions of dollars on this department. And for what? Our children are worse off as far as education goes today than they were when this department originated. And that's very concerning to the president. So two issues she cited are those of priorities for the president. School education choice vouchers and diminishing the role of teachers.
Starting point is 01:12:28 The president is very supportive of both of those things, particularly when it comes to school choice. He has said that school choice is the civil rights issue of our time. And he wants every child, regardless of zip code, socioeconomic status, how much money their parents have to be able to go to the school of their choosing that best suits their educational needs. And he is going to empower state and local leaders to make those decisions on behalf of our nation's children. Thanks for being here, Mark. Jeff. Just changing subjects for one second. The administration has expressed a complete confidence in how all the deportation flights to El Salvador were conducted. But now that the administration has conceded that there was an error of one Salvadoran national, will there be any reviews conducted?
Starting point is 01:13:12 And does the president express any thoughts on the one error that was disclosed in court last night? Well, first of all, the error that you are referring to was a clerical error. It was an administrative error. The administration maintains the position that this individual who was deported to El Salvador and will not be returning to our country was a member of the brutal and vicious MS-13 gang. That is fact number one. Fact number two, we also have credible intelligence proving that this individual was involved in human trafficking.
Starting point is 01:13:44 And fact number three, this individual was a member, actually a leader of the brutal MS-13 gang, which this president has designated as a foreign terrorist organization. Fact number four is that foreign terrorists do not have legal protections in the United States of America anymore. And it is within the president's executive authority and power to deport these heinous individuals from American communities. It is a promise he campaigned on. It is a promise he is keeping. And every single person in this room should be grateful for that, considering especially MS-13 is very prevalent and prominent here in the District of Columbia, in Maryland and in Virginia, and the president, the attorney general, everyone who has been involved in these operations is
Starting point is 01:14:23 focused on eradicating these criminals and terrorists from our communities. The Vice President said he was a convicted member of MS-13. What evidence is there to back that up? There's a lot of evidence, and the Department of Homeland Security and ICE have that evidence, and I saw it this morning. Steve. Has the President fully made up his mind on the level of tariffs to impose tomorrow. We keep hearing about a 20 percent flat rate. The president said last night he has made a decision and a determination. I was with him in the Oval Office earlier, and he is going to announce that decision tomorrow. I don't want to get ahead of the president. This is obviously a very big day.
Starting point is 01:14:57 He is with his trade and tariff team right now, perfecting it to make sure this is a perfect deal for the American people and the American worker. And you will all find out in about 24 hours from now. And are the car tariffs going to go into effect on April 3rd as scheduled? Correct. Yes, they will. And last thing, would you like to respond to the Chinese military drills around Taiwan? Yes, I would. As a matter of fact, the National Security Council briefed me on this this morning, and they said that the president is emphasizing the importance of maintaining peace in the Taiwan Strait, encouraging the peaceful resolution of these cross-strait issues, reiterating our opposition to any unilateral attempts to change the status quo by force or coercion. That is
Starting point is 01:15:40 directly from the National Security Advisor. Just for you, Steve Holland of Reuters. Monica. Thank you so much, Caroline. Elon Musk this week revealed that Doge found that the Biden administration issued over 2 million social security numbers to illegal aliens, found 20 million dead people marked as alive in the social security system. Has the White House confirmed these numbers with Elon, and is the White House looking into correcting this? I'm not sure about those specific numbers that Mr. Musk cited.
Starting point is 01:16:07 I can tell you what the Social Security Administration has said themselves, according to an inspector general's report that was conducted last year, showing there was nearly $80 billion worth of fraud in this program. We know for a fact there are individuals who should not be receiving benefits on the Social Security roles. And this administration is focused on cleaning out the waste, fraud, and abuse in every agency, but particularly in Social Security, to make it stronger for our taxpaying, law-abiding citizens who deserve these entitlements and programs. Because you did bring up DOGE, I do want to tout the incredible efforts that have been made at the Environmental Protection Agency. And Administrator Lee Zeldin is just doing a tremendous job. Just yesterday and today, it will be going into effect. He announced that taxpayers will be saved $8 million in annual
Starting point is 01:16:54 lease costs by moving staff out of the 323,000 square feet of space that the EPA currently occupies, which is completely unnecessary. Yesterday, Administrator Zeldin also announced he will be shutting down a museum that the Biden administration built to tell a selective story about the EPA's history and climate change. It was a real pat on the back to President Biden. And guess how much American taxpayers paid for it? $4 million for this museum that I think only 1,000 visitors saw last year alone. And it would cost American taxpayers $600,000 per year to operate this museum. Well, it's not going to exist anymore. We're going to save taxpayers those critical funds.
Starting point is 01:17:39 And Administrator Zeldin is very proud to announce that. And just at EPA alone and the cuts that they have made, they've saved taxpayers more than $22 billion in wasteful grants and spending. Peter. Thank you, Caroline. When the president goes down to Florida on the weekends, does he ever hear from – there are so many retired folks down in Florida. Does he ever hear from any retired Americans who are stressed about these wild swings in the stock market because of the tariff uncertainty and they're sitting there on fixed income or living off of 401K and they don't know how much money is going to be left? Well, certainly, they are legitimate concerns and the president
Starting point is 01:18:22 takes those concerns very seriously and he's addressing them every single day. And tomorrow's announcement is to protect future generations of the senior citizens you mentioned. It's for their kids and their grandkids to ensure that there are jobs here in the United States of America for their children to live the American dream, just like they presumably did. And as for their worries about their 401ks, their Social Security, I just addressed Social security. This president is always going to protect it for our taxpaying senior citizens. As for their 401ks, look at what President Trump did for you in his first term. He is working on implementing that economic formula every single day by lowering inflation, lowering energy prices, massive deregulatory efforts, while simultaneously effectively implementing tariffs.
Starting point is 01:19:07 And they'll hear more about that announcement tomorrow. And you said that the president right now is with the trade and tariff team. They are very confident that this is all going to work. But what if they're wrong? They're not going to be wrong. It is going to work. And the president has a brilliant team of advisors
Starting point is 01:19:22 who have been studying these issues for decades. And we are focused on restoring the golden age of America and making America a manufacturing superpower. And again, Peter, I would point you to the investments that have already trickled into this country. And the president hasn't even made his tariff announcement yet tomorrow. There have been billions of dollars in private investments from around the world pouring into American communities. What does that look like for those watching at home, for the people you mentioned worried about their own economic circumstances? It means more jobs in your communities, which means more money, more investments, more money in your pocket. That's what the president is committed to. And I would be remiss if I didn't mention the president's commitment to tax cuts,
Starting point is 01:20:02 which we are counting on Congress to do, especially on social security. And one more. Sure. Are the special elections today a referendum on the president? I think the, first of all, as you know, I'm a government employee now, so I'm not very much allowed to comment on elections that are taking place. That's something to get used to having just been on the campaign trail for quite some time. But the president is the leader of the America First movement and the MAGA movement. And that was made very clear on November the 5th when he received nearly 80 million votes. I could also say that it is the constitutional right of every law abiding American in these places where these elections are being held to vote. And every American should exercise their constitutional rights. Sure. Thank you. A few questions about this deportation case. First,
Starting point is 01:20:52 I wanted to clarify something that you said to Jeff a few minutes ago. You said you'd seen evidence that this man was a convicted gang member. In what court was he convicted and for what? This individual was an MS-13 ringleader. This individual was also engaged in human trafficking. And I'm glad you brought up this point again, because I would like to point out that if you just saw the headline from the insane failing Atlantic Magazine this morning, you would think this individual was father of the year, living in Maryland, living a peaceful life when that couldn't be further from the truth. They didn't even mention in the title of that article, or even in the first paragraph that this individual is an illegal criminal who broke
Starting point is 01:21:34 our nation's immigration laws. He is a leader in the brutal MS-13 gang, and he is involved in human trafficking. And now MS-13 is a designated foreign terrorist organization. Foreign terrorists have no legal protections in the United States of America. And this administration is going to continue to deport foreign terrorists and illegal criminals from our nation's interior. But a judge ordered that he should remain in this country. So are you saying that it is okay to ignore a judge's ruling if you don't like it? Who does that judge work for? He's an immigration judge who works for the Department of Justice
Starting point is 01:22:08 at the direction of the Attorney General of the United States, whose name is Pam Bondi, who has committed to eradicating MS-13 from our nation's interior. And let me tell you why we've made this commitment. MS-13, may I remind each and every one of you, is a brutal and vicious gang. They raped and strangled a 20-year-old
Starting point is 01:22:25 autistic woman to death in Maryland. They hacked four people to death with machetes in a park on Long Island. They have kidnapped, sexually tortured, and shot a teenage girl in Texas after she insulted them, allegedly. Killed and mutilated a 17-year-old girl in Virginia, stabbing him 16 times and cutting off his hands. They beheaded and cut out the heart of a man in Washington, D.C. They raped and murdered a 13-year-old girl in California. They sex trafficked a slew of young girls, including one who was just 12 years old, raped an 11-year-old girl in Brooklyn while her brother was in the room, sex trafficked a 13-year-old in Maryland and Virginia, miles away from this White House,
Starting point is 01:23:05 even beating her 26 times on her backside with a baseball bat. Pressure to homeless New Yorkers to undergo unnecessary surgeries such as spinal fusion in order to bolster their fraudulent lawsuits. These are vicious criminals. This is a vicious gang. And I wish that the media would spend just a second of the same time you have spent trying to litigate each and every individual of this gang who has been deported from our country as the innocent Americans whose lives have been lost at the hands of these brutal criminals. We maintain our position and very strongly so. Jennifer. Can you say what the latest thinking is on the start date? I know you were just in the Oval. Are they all going to take effect this week on the reciprocal tariffs? And whenever they start, is that enough time for companies and everyone involved to adjust to that start date? My understanding is that the tariff announcement will come tomorrow. They will be effective immediately.
Starting point is 01:23:59 And the president has been teasing this for quite some time, as you know. He's talked a lot about April 2nd as Liberation Day in Americaica it would be taking place today if not for april fool's day but tomorrow will be the day and he's been talking about it for a while and as a result you've seen these companies make commitments to investing right here in the united states jasmine thank you so much i wonder back on tariffs um if any market indicators is the White House looking forward to see if this tariffs plan is successful down the line? Well, look, the president has been asked to answer this question about the stock market and whether he's watching it. And I've said and he has said the market is a snapshot in time. Yesterday, Dow futures were up and there's been a lot of talk about the market and it was up yesterday.
Starting point is 01:24:42 So, look, the president wants to ensure that all Americans make out well, particularly Main Street. That's the focus of these tariffs. But as I've said repeatedly, just like they did in their deaths, like they were in his first term, Wall Street will be just fine. Shelby. Thanks. A bipartisan pair of senators sent a letter to the president today arguing that the recent strikes in Yemen are emboldening the Houthis and saying that Congress has not authorized war against them. Is the administration planning to consult with Congress at some point or going forward
Starting point is 01:25:11 regarding the strikes? And any response on the letter? MS. Well, I would absolutely reject Congress's claims. Who made those claims in Congress? MS. Senator Jeff Merkley and Rand Paul. MS.
Starting point is 01:25:23 Okay. Well, I would absolutely reject those claims. These Houthi strikes have been incredibly successful. Last time I was at this podium, there were more than 100 successful strikes. There have now been over 200 successful strikes against the Houthis. Iran is incredibly weakened as a result of these attacks. And we have seen they've taken out Houthi leaders. They've taken out critical members who were launching strikes on naval ships and on commercial vessels. And this operation will not stop until the freedom of navigation in this region is restored, which is a critical principle. And this president stands behind our Defense
Starting point is 01:25:54 Department, who's doing a tremendous job. Is the White House going to confer with Congress going forward on this? I would have to ask our team here at the White House, but the president is well within his authority, as is the Secretary of Defense. Again, these are defensive strikes. The Houthis have been launching attacks on U.S. naval vessels and commercial ships for quite some time. Go ahead. Caroline, the pause on the Canadian and Mexican tariffs, the fentanyl tariffs, that's set to expire tomorrow. Is the president considering extending that pause? Look, I will let the president speak on the specifics of the tariffs tomorrow. But as for fentanyl, we have seen this has certainly caused a national security crisis here in the United States. Fentanyl continues to be the number one killer of young people in
Starting point is 01:26:37 this country, and the president is very much focused on that. Deanna. Thank you, Caroline. The president really salute me, signed an executive order on making D.C. safe and beautiful on the campaign trail. He talked about making New York great again. Does he have any plans on establishing a similar task force? Has he been pressuring Governor Hochul in any way in his conversations about New York and lowering crime? Well, he has been in correspondence with Governor Hochul quite a bit on the issue of crime, also on the issue of congestion pricing and so many other issues that are facing New Yorkers. And he wants New York to clean up their streets just as he does here in Washington, D.C. He also speaks to Mayor Adams as well. So he's engaged with state and
Starting point is 01:27:20 local leaders across the entire country to ensure they're doing their part to help American citizens in each and every state, regardless of if it's a red state or a blue state. A question on Russia. Yesterday, the Russian government said that their new goal is 160,000 conscripts for the war. Has the president seen that number? And does he have any response given his recent conversations on peace talks? Well, I can tell you what the President said last night, and that is he is frustrated with leaders on both sides of this war. He wants this war to end. There are men that are dying on both sides, and it's been going on for far too long.
Starting point is 01:27:57 Our team continues to be engaged with the Russians as we are with the Ukrainians, and the President continues to be very, very much engaged on this topic every single day. Caroline. Caroline. Caroline. Caroline. The President said over the weekend that he couldn't care less if prices went up on foreign cars because people buy more American cars. There's been consensus from a lot of economists that these tariffs could raise prices on other goods as well. Is the president comfortable with Americans on Main Street paying more because of these tariffs? The president is doing everything he can, and this entire administration is doing everything we can to bring down the cost of living in this country. An inflation mess that was fueled by the previous administration's reckless spending overburdened some regulations that this
Starting point is 01:28:44 administration is focused on slashing every single day. I just read you a statistic just from the Environmental Protective Agency alone. We're saving taxpayers money that's ultimately going to drive down inflation. We're unleashing the might of our energy industry, which will bring down prices as well. To the heart of your question, because this is very important to the American people, you should trust what this president did for you in his first term. He effectively utilized tariffs while driving down inflation. It was a record low, 1.4 percent when he left office, and he's focused on getting back to that. It's unfortunate the previous administration left us in this mess. Sure. Representative Anna Paulina Luna left the Freedom Caucus over there,
Starting point is 01:29:24 left support for her bill that would allow new parents to proxy vote around 12 weeks around the birth of their baby. Does the president support that bill? I'm not sure. I haven't actually talked to the president about that bill, but I certainly can and can get a take on if he supports it or not. Thank you. And one more. The D.C. Circuit ruled last week that the President can fire holdover Biden appointees of independent agencies. Will this ruling empower President Trump to dismiss more federal employees?
Starting point is 01:29:53 Well, the President has given the responsibility to his cabinet secretaries to hire and fire at their respective agencies, and they reserve that right. You saw the Secretary of Health and Human Services announced more layoffs today. This is all part of the administration's effort for a mass reduction in force in the federal bureaucracy here in Washington DC to save American taxpayers money. As for agencies within the president's executive authority, the president retains that right and we've seen there have been bureaucrats at some of these agencies that have been trying to act independent. They need to remember who they work for. It's the executive of the executive branch. You look at the United States Institute
Starting point is 01:30:34 of Peace, for example. There was a little bit of a standoff with bureaucrats over there who didn't want to realize who they work for, and that is Donald Trump. And President Trump is focused on streamlining these agencies to save American taxpayers money, and he has every right to do that. Caroline. Caroline. Caroline. Sure.
Starting point is 01:30:53 Go ahead. Thanks, Caroline. Yeah. The – in Gaza, the bodies of 15 rescuers have been found in their sort of ambulances where they were apparently killed by Israeli forces. Just wondering if the White House is going to be calling on Israel to investigate that and to try and avoid similar casualties involving the rest of the workers in the future. Well, as for the specific situation you just mentioned, I'll talk to the president about it and our national security team. What I can tell you is what I've spoken with the president
Starting point is 01:31:19 on. He very much remains committed to backing Israel. And it was only because of this president and his team's leadership that we had a temporary ceasefire in Gaza, that we were able to bring many hostages home. And the president made it very clear to Hamas, you get the hostages out, all of them, or there will be hell to pay. And Hamas is certainly witnessing what it feels like for all hell to be paid. And the president supports Israel's right to defend itself. Is progress at all on a ceasefire at the moment as far as the president's concerned the president and his team continue to be engaged on this every single day sure go ahead so um i'm just wondering uh related to that if you have an approximate date for the president's first foreign trip i think there was a little confusion
Starting point is 01:32:00 yesterday about what month he was talking about. And then will he need a ceasefire to be in place or closer either in Gaza or in Ukraine before that takes place? The president will be heading to Saudi Arabia in May. As for specific dates and details, we will be reading those out to you as soon as we possibly can. I know our teams are working on the details of that trip. And then again, as for for ceasefire, the president's made it clear that's what he wants to see in Russia and Ukraine, and his team continues to be engaged on it every day. Kelly. Signal, you said case closed yesterday.
Starting point is 01:32:34 Do you, as that case was closed, do you have anything that you can share about what was learned, how this can be avoided in the future, any sort of findings from that investigation? The case is closed and the president continues to have confidence in his national security advisor. Yes, Kelly. Thanks, Caroline. Sorry, Ed. Ed, I'll come to you after. I'm glad you're so eager to ask a question.
Starting point is 01:32:58 It's Liberation Day. Yes, it is. Caroline, the president has said foreign countries and companies will eat the cost of tariffs. In his speech on inauguration day, he said, quote, instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will tariff and tax foreign countries to enrich our citizens. Right. So then why did he have to tell the domestic automakers
Starting point is 01:33:16 not to raise prices? Well, that was a private conversation that was had. I'm not sure if that comment was made or was not made, but as for what the president said in his inauguration day speech, he's absolutely correct. A tariff will be a tax on these foreign nations, these foreign companies. And if they want to be absolved of that tariff, then they can come here to the United States of America to do business, bring their jobs here. Edward, go ahead. Thank you. So Canadians have been negotiating with the Commerce Secretary over the trade, the tariffs. How many companies are mutually talking with the U.S. to – or countries are mutually
Starting point is 01:33:52 talking with the U.S. to lower tariffs? MS. I don't have a specific number, but I can tell you there have been quite a few countries that have called the President and have called his team in discussion about these tariffs. But again, there's one country the President cares most about, and it's the United States of America, and doing what's best for the people who elected him to this office to restore their jobs, their wealth, and their prosperity. I'm looking at the clock. I have a hard out today. Excuse me. I have a hard out today,
Starting point is 01:34:16 because I'm actually heading over to the State Department with the First Lady of the United States. She will be delivering remarks at 1 o'clock this afternoon at the 19th International Women of Courage Award Ceremony with our great Secretary of State Marco Rubio. It starts at 1. This is the fifth year Mrs. Trump is participating and standing with brave women leaders who embody American values abroad. And the First Lady in her remarks today will highlight the profound connection between the love and courage that will be shown by this year's honorees. I encourage everybody to tune in at one o'clock and then we'll see you all tomorrow for Liberation Day.
Starting point is 01:34:48 Thanks guys. Thanks Caroline. All right. Everdoll moment. Always an exciting time to do the program and there's always gonna be some type of tie-in, right? Let's like, I would have given anything to stream Kid Rock and bill maher and dana white at the white house last night having dinner with donald trump bill maher didn't even make an appearance like at all like i don't think
Starting point is 01:35:13 there's even any photos of him there at the white house but it is a raucous good time here in the golden era it is a golden era for a reason carolyn levitt wears a shirt that says blonde supremacy right make america blonde again she proved that she is the supreme white house press secretary with this epic takedown of ms-13 from the press corps these people is is there like a terrorist murderer rapist they won't defend they protected protected Jeffrey Epstein for all these years. They protected Harvey Weinstein. They protect legitimately any monster they possibly can as long as it means that they were able to dunk on the cons. And here's a perfect example of that today from the White House press briefing room.
Starting point is 01:36:01 Here we go. So you've seen evidence that this man was a convicted gang member. In what court was he convicted and for what? The, this individual was an MS-13 ring leader. This individual was also engaged in human trafficking. And I'm glad you brought up this point again, because I would like to point out that if you just saw the headline from the insane failing Atlantic magazine this morning, you would think this individual was father of the year living in Maryland, living a peaceful life when that couldn't be further from the truth. They didn't even mention in the title of that article or even in the first paragraph that
Starting point is 01:36:39 this individual is an illegal criminal who broke our nation's immigration laws. He is a leader in the brutal MS-13 gang, and he is involved in human trafficking. And now MS-13 is a designated foreign terrorist organization. Foreign terrorists have no legal protections in the United States of America. And this administration is going to continue to deport foreign terrorists and illegal criminals from our nation's interior. But a judge ordered that he should remain in this country. So are you saying that it is okay to ignore a judge's ruling if you don't like it? Who does that judge work for? He's an immigration judge. It was an immigration judge who works for
Starting point is 01:37:14 the Department of Justice at the direction of the Attorney General of the United States, whose name is Pam Bondi, who has committed to eradicating MS-13 from our nation's interior. And let me tell you why we've made this commitment. MS-13, may I remind each and every one of you, is a brutal and vicious gang. They raped and strangled a 20-year-old autistic woman to death in Maryland. They hacked four people to death with machetes in a park on Long Island. They have kidnapped, sexually tortured, and shot a teenage girl in Texas after she insulted them, allegedly. Killed and mutilated a 17-year-old girl in Virginia, stabbing him 16 times and cutting off his hands. They beheaded
Starting point is 01:37:52 and cut out the heart of a man in Washington, D.C. They raped and murdered a 13-year-old girl in California. They sex trafficked a slew of young girls, including one who was just 12 years old. Raped an 11-year-old girl in Brooklyn while her brother was in the room. Sex trafficked a 13w of young girls, including one who was just 12 years old, raped an 11-year-old girl in Brooklyn while her brother was in the room, sex trafficked a 13-year-old in Maryland and Virginia, miles away from this White House, even beating her 26 times on her backside with a baseball bat, pressured homeless New Yorkers to undergo unnecessary surgeries such as spinal fusion in order to bolster their fraudulent lawsuits. These are vicious criminals.
Starting point is 01:38:28 This is a vicious gang. And I wish that the media would spend just a second of the same time you have spent trying to litigate each and every individual of this gang who has been deported from our country as the innocent Americans whose lives have been lost at the hands of these brutal criminals. Yeah. They don't care. It's not a single judge that stopped the invasion of our country by tens of millions of criminal aliens. Many of them admitted terrorists. Not a single judge stopped it. Nothing. Not a single nationwide injunction to say you have to shut down the border. Nothing. They did it on purpose.
Starting point is 01:39:11 And this is now the great undoing of this curse on our nation. And it's going to be ugly because the process from the beginning was ugly. Undoing it is going to be ugly. The process of the beginning was ugly. Undoing it is going to be ugly. The process of allowing hundreds of millions, hundreds of millions is an exaggeration, but tens of millions of criminal aliens
Starting point is 01:39:33 to pour into our nation, to turn us into a third world refuse, is ugly. It looked ugly at the time. It was heinous. It has clearly been very ugly for our communities. A criminal alien went and killed somebody in a car accident just a few miles from where we broadcast.
Starting point is 01:39:51 I'm sure there are stories like this where you live, no matter where you live. Smashed right into a car. Mom was driving with her daughter. Criminal alien was drunk, completely blitzed out of his mind, and should have never been here. So it's ugly.
Starting point is 01:40:11 That process is ugly. Getting rid of that element, which, by the way, it really, you know, worth saying, your due process is deportation. We need due process in this country. If you're a criminal alien, your due process is deportation. That's your process in this country. If you're a criminal alien, your due process is deportation. That's your due process. You're here. You're not legal.
Starting point is 01:40:31 So you're deported. I don't, that doesn't matter. You know what's going to happen. So the first op failed with Signal. The next op is going to be, but they have families. And look,
Starting point is 01:40:43 they're such happy people and they're so nice. They're trying to do this right now with this single case out of Maryland. But he had a family. If you're here illegally, then your due process is deportation. That's it. It really, everything else doesn't matter.
Starting point is 01:41:01 And you have to set your heart like flint against this because they're going to try and manipulate emotions. Manipulating the emotions of good and moral people is how he got into this position. Tolerance is not a Christian virtue, but let's talk Christian virtues. Our verse of the day from Psalms 62.7.
Starting point is 01:41:21 My victory and honor come from God alone. He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me. Make sure that our nation is a rock where no enemy can reach us. Make sure that where we live, where your children are being raised, that you have in your own mortal capacity, the ability to protect and provide and to put a roof over your head and protections around you and your family and what you hold dear. That locks in with the elections that are happening tonight.
Starting point is 01:41:52 Please, get out and vote. Jimmy Patronus and Randy Fine here in the state of Florida. Get out and vote in the state of Wisconsin, Brad Schimel. And it's very simple. It's a very simple equation as to why you must do this.
Starting point is 01:42:07 If you don't, then what's going to happen is President Trump's going to be put in prison. I mark my words. Donald Trump, if Democrats get a single one-seat majority in the House, they will impeach him the first day.
Starting point is 01:42:19 They will hunt that man and throw so much sand in the gears of this movement that there will be no operability for President Trump to get anything done. What will happen next is whatever laws they can possibly
Starting point is 01:42:38 pass in order to ensure that criminal aliens can vote in elections, they've already tried to do this in New York, that elections are as loose and as rigable as possible. They will do. If they can get power back, then the next thing that happens is the lawfare against Trump starts. The ticker starts all over again. The clock starts then. It'll be impeachments all over again. You'll see Fannie Willis back. You'll see Alvin Bragg back. Make sure that we are doing our best to protect our home, to reinforce the walls right now, starting in Wisconsin and Florida today and carrying on through. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what we do as best as we possibly can do,
Starting point is 01:43:24 bringing on all the experts today from the field, the candidates themselves, and making sure that we are creating a golden era for our children, which is our motivation here on the show, and we're pretty honest about it. That's all that matters to us, making a country for our children that we're leaving better for them instead of worse. We don't want to be one of those cursed generation that leaves a worse country. And I think we're on the precipice right here. No hate on the boomers, but like, unfortunately, we're on a precipice right now.
Starting point is 01:43:53 There's been, bad things have been happening and we're having to pull back from the brink. It's a puff job. But we're going to do it here in your front seat to the golden era. My name is Benny. This is The Benny Show. March with us on to victory.
