Starting point is 00:06:09 from some homeless guy that you wanted to be. They're probably a homeless criminal alien, ladies and gentlemen. Getting what you deserve. Well, I've got to tell you what we deserve as a country is the truth. And there was another document dump in the JFK archives. Here's the archives where you can find them.

All right, so Jerry's saying he's gonna do some magic here. So we'll see what happens. We'll keep up with the FAFO for the Fatso in New York. All right, here we go, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Speaking of truth for the American people and some entertainment for sure, here are the newest document dumps for the JFK documents. Annapolina Luna, friend of the program, saying, well, you know what? We got 13,000 new pages released and what do we find in them? This document confirms that the CIA
Starting point is 00:08:34 rejected the lone gun theory in the weeks after the JFK assassination. It's called the Donald Keith memo. It's a little strange. Okay. Somebody clearly didn't Donald Keith memo. It's a little strange. Okay. Somebody clearly didn't get the memo at the CIA. You can read here on this secret document dated 1977 about how impossible it would be from the CIA's perspective for the murderer to be a lone gunman.
Starting point is 00:09:12 That's a little strange, right? So let's see here. At the time of the Kennedy murder, I was on suspension from active duty. I had left my financial economy. Let's see here. Talking about Cuban involvement, potentially in the Kennedy murder. You never know what kind of what kind of stuff you have never you never know what kind of stuff is just like, put out there to also be a lie how much of this is deception where they're trying to send
Starting point is 00:09:49 the public on a different path this is all about cuban agents and all about cuban information and potential cuban exiles that are angry about about president kennedy and how it went down with cuba so what was it exactly? Yeah. It was the forever war department. Kennedy was going to end the wars. This is what we're going to hear about from Pete Hegseth today. Please don't go to war.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Please don't announce war with Iran, no matter what we do. But, yeah, I mean, very interesting. Also, you know, just so happened to confirm that there is a break-in at the Watergate and that they were setting up Nixon for a fall. Tucker Carlson, right again. Here we go. The 2025 release under the President John F. Kennedy assassination record, Act of 1992. Just in, the new JFK files is an entry into Watergate. Why is this significant? Buckle up.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Tucker Carlson explains. Nixon met with then CIA Director Richard Helms at the White House. During the conversation he recorded, Nixon suggested he wants to know who shot John, meaning President John F. Kennedy. Nixon further implied that the CIA was indirectly involved in Kennedy's assassination, which we now know that it was. It really makes you think. Oh boy, here we go. For eyes only, the entry into the Democrat National Headquarters, it's incredible, this entire thing, all of the people who broke into the Watergate were connected to the CIA, some of them directly, some of them indirectly.
Starting point is 00:11:29 The entire thing was an op in order to trap Nixon. And Nixon was – Nixon insisted on knowing who shot John in a recorded tape. We have the audio, but we'd like to play you a little bit of what Tucker said at the time, because, well, we're massive Tucker fans, and we like proving Tucker right, even if it's from 18 months ago. Ladies and gentlemen, Tucker Carlson, with this reporting, remember, he was getting so, Tucker was sort of like kind of twisting around the axle of this JFK assassination. He was hitting up CIA sources. He was asking all the right questions. And then suddenly Tucker goes bye-bye at Fox News.
Starting point is 00:12:14 It really makes you wonder. These were like – these were the times – this was the final reporting of Tucker Carlson before he got fired. It really makes you wonder, right, exactly who's in control. Here's Tucker Carlson explaining that this, ladies and gentlemen, is a CIA operation against Richard Nixon, the second in a decade where the CIA took out a sitting American president. Let's go. So if you want to understand, if you really want to understand how the American government actually works at the highest levels, and if you want to know why they don't teach history anymore, one thing you should know is that the most popular president in American history was Richard Nixon.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Richard Nixon. Yet somehow, without a single vote being cast by a single American voter, Richard Nixon was kicked out of office and replaced by...

Terms and conditions apply. Visit bmo.com slash VI Porter to learn more. We're the only unelected president in American history. So we went from the most popular president to a president nobody voted for. Wait a minute, you may ask. Why didn't I know that? Wasn't Richard Nixon a
Starting point is 00:13:45 criminal? Wasn't he despised by all decent people? No, he wasn't. In fact, if any president could claim to be the people's choice, it was Richard Nixon. Richard Nixon was reelected in 1972 by the largest margin of the popular vote ever recorded before or since. Nixon got 17 million more votes than his opponent. Less than two years later, he was gone. He was forced to resign. And in his place, an obedient servant of the federal agencies called Gerald Ford took over the White House. How did that happen? Well, it's a long story, but here are the highlights, and they tell you a lot. Richard Nixon believed that elements in the federal bureaucracy were working to undermine the American system of government and had been doing that for a long time.
Starting point is 00:14:29 He often said that. He was absolutely right. On June 23, 1972, Nixon met with the then CIA director Richard Helms at the White House. During the conversation, which thankfully was tape recorded, Nixon suggested he knew, quote, who shot John, meaning President John F. Kennedy. Nixon further implied that the CIA was directly involved in Kennedy's assassination, which we now know it was. Helms' telling response? Total silence.
Starting point is 00:14:58 But for Nixon, it didn't matter because it was already over. Four days before, on June 19th, the Washington Post had published the first of many stories about a break-in at the Watergate office building. Unbeknownst to Nixon and unreported by the Washington Post, four of the five burglars worked for the CIA. The first of many dishonest Watergate stories was written by a 29-year-old Metro reporter called Bob Woodward.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Who exactly was Bob Woodward? Well, he wasn't a journalist. Bob Woodward had no background whatsoever in the news business. Instead, Bob Woodward came directly from the classified areas of the federal government. Shortly before Watergate, Woodward was a naval officer at the Pentagon. He had a top secret clearance. He worked regularly with the intel agencies. At times, Woodward was even detailed to the Nixon White House, where he interacted with Richard Nixon's top aides. Soon after leaving the Navy, for reasons that have never been clear, Woodward was hired by the most powerful news outlet in Washington and assigned the biggest story in the country. And just to
Starting point is 00:16:00 make it crystal clear what was actually happening, Woodward's main source for his Watergate series was the deputy director of the FBI, Mark Felt. And Mark Felt ran, and we're not making this up, the FBI's COINTELPRO program, which was designed to secretly discredit political actors the federal agencies wanted to destroy, people like Richard Nixon. And at the same time, those same agencies were also working to take down Nixon's elected vice president, Spiro Agnew. In the fall of 1973, Agnew was indicted for tax evasion and forced to resign. His replacement was a colorless congressman from Grand Rapids called Gerald Ford. What was Ford's qualification for the job?
Starting point is 00:16:41 Well, he had served on the Warren Commission, which absolved the CIA of responsibility for President Kennedy's murder. Nixon was strong-armed into accepting Gerald Ford by Democrats in Congress. Quote, we gave Nixon no choice but Ford, Speaker of the House Carl Albert later boasted. Eight months later, Gerald Ford of the Warren Commission was the President of the United States. See how that works? So those are the facts, not speculation. All of that actually happened. None of it's secret.
Starting point is 00:17:10 Most of it actually is on Wikipedia. But no mainstream news organization has ever told that story. It's so obvious, yet it's intentionally ignored. And as a result, permanent Washington remains in charge of our political system. Unelected lifers in the federal agencies make the biggest decisions in American government and crush anyone who tries to rein them in. And in the process, our democracy becomes a joke. So longer clip. So three minute clip. We hate doing that.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Meaning it's important for us to keep the show chop chop but it's so crystallized perfectly by tucker we just gotta let her go it's just lay it all out explain watergate in a way that had blew my mind back when Tucker did this show, what, in 2022? Changed forever the way that I saw American history. It's not just me. Look at this from last week, Bill Murray. Of course, you know Bill Murray, one of the most legendary comedians and actors of our time.
Starting point is 00:18:23 He's still kicking. He's a ghostbuster. And, well, he's destroying ghosts. The fabrication that Bob Woodward is anything other than a wretched little servant of the deep state. Bill Murray quips that Bob Woodward framed Richard Nixon. What?
Starting point is 00:18:41 Oh, yeah. Framed Richard Nixon with the help of the FBI and the CIA because he was asking about John F. Kennedy and the murder of John. They were friends, by the way. Roger Stone was on the show earlier this week talking about the deep bond between Nixon and Kennedy. And so now we see here,
Starting point is 00:19:04 inside of the Kennedy assassination documents, this backgrounder note on the break-in at Watergate. Five men were arrested at the Watergate at 2 a.m. after having been discovered breaking into the Democrat National Convention headquarters. Nixon had already won re-election by a landslide. Why did they need to break into the DNC? The entire thing was an op. The whole thing was a setup. And we don't have enough time to get into it right now, but it's clear that Nixon was asking all of the wrong questions. It's amazing. This is exactly what President Trump is up against right now. And it is a military weight nexus that runs these operations. So we're very interested to hear what Pete Hegseth says from his seat at the Pentagon in what we assume to be just a moment, because now we have the holding screen here. We will begin shortly is what the Pentagon screen says. So we look forward to hearing from Trump and Pete Hegseth
Starting point is 00:20:11 inside of the White House right now. A lot of news out of the White House right now. Elon Musk to hunt down Pentagon leakers as Trump and Pete Hegseth reveal new top gun jet. Freaking awesome. Come on. Donald Trump, by the way, I don't know if we have this truth, but you've gotta get it for me. Saying that the Tesla terrorists
Starting point is 00:20:32 are going to be sent to El Salvador. Do we have that? Yeah, let's grab that. Come on! There's perfect! So the counterterrorism detention center, that famous prison in El Salvador where we're now sending criminal aliens,
Starting point is 00:20:48 there are three people that we know of right now. I think there's more, but three people who are being charged with terrorism charges. And here's their beautiful photos. Wow, I wonder what they all have in common. It really makes you wonder. they all have in common. It really makes you wonder here. They have been charged. They've faced 20 years, but they have a minimum of five years in federal prison.
Starting point is 00:21:15 They have a mandatory minimums for these charges. So these, these they're effed. All right. President Trump saying this morning, why not send them down to El Salvador? I'm sure these three will get along beautifully inside of that prison with all the gang members with the teardrops tattooed on their faces. I look forward to watching the sick terrorist thugs get 20 years jail sentences for what they're doing to Elon Musk and Tesla.
Starting point is 00:21:44 Perhaps they could serve them in the prisons of El Salvador, which has become recently famous for such lovely conditions. Come on, man. Oh, that's beautiful. Give me some of the fun footage of those prisons. There's been quite a bit published recently. Anyway, leaking is a big no-no. Apparently, individuals at the Pentagon, which is just an absolute rat's nest, have been leaking about what's going on. Elon Musk walking into the Pentagon early this morning. Elon Musk promised to hunt down the leakers at the Pentagon that allegedly leaked false news
Starting point is 00:22:32 about why he was there. Billionaire Doge head Elon Musk says he's going to find the Defense Department leakers. It comes as President Donald Trump vehemently denied a New York Times report citing sources that claim first buddy Elon Musk was going to the Pentagon Friday for a briefing from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on preparations of war with China. We're going to do this again. We're really going to do this again. You know, I can get an unnamed source to tell me anything I want. I can get an unnamed source right now to tell me that Jill Biden actually plays Joe Biden as a human sock puppy, that there's a Joe Biden skin suit that Jill Biden puts on. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:23:13 Hold on. Here we go. Live from the White House, President Trump and Pete Hagseth live. This is live. Let's go. We're going to educate the children in their states where they can get a proper education. The numbers are horrible the way it is. And we're going to make a move that's very big. I don't think it's even risky a little bit. I think it's going to be amazing. Should have been done years ago.
Starting point is 00:23:36 They've been talking about doing it for many years, but nobody ever got it off. But we did. And there was great excitement and great acceptance of it by almost everybody, including a lot of Democrats, actually. I do want to say that I've decided that the SBA, the Small Business Administration, headed by Kelly Loeffler, this terrific person, will handle all of the student loan portfolio. We have a portfolio that's very large, lots of loans, tens of thousands of loans, pretty complicated deal. And that's coming out of the Department of Education
Starting point is 00:24:16 immediately and it's gonna be headed up by Kelly Loeffler, SBA, and they're all set for it. They're waiting for it, it'll be serviced much better than it has in the past. It's been a mess. And also Bobby Kennedy, the Health and Human Services will be handling special needs and all of the nutrition programs and Human Services. So I think that'll work out very well. Those two elements will be taken out of the Department of Education. And then all we have to do is get the students to get guidance from the people that love them
Starting point is 00:24:55 and cherish them, including their parents, by the way, who will be totally involved in their education along with the boards and the governors and the states. And it's going to be a great situation. I guarantee that in a few years from now, I hope, I'm going to be around to see it, but I think we're going to see a lot of it. I think that you're going to have tremendous results. You're going to have results like Norway, Sweden, Denmark, a
Starting point is 00:25:20 lot of the countries that do so well. I think you're going to have a lot of those results. If you look at Iowa and Indiana and Idaho, so many places that run so well, Florida, Texas, big ones. You're going to have great education, much better than it is now at half the cost. And we're not even doing it as a cost item, although you will save probably half, maybe more than that. And you're not going to be at the bottom of the list. You're going to be much higher. And maybe you'll be, I will guarantee some of the states will be at the top of the list.
Starting point is 00:25:53 They'll be comparable or better than these number one, two, three, four, five countries, the countries that are in the top five positions. So that's, to me, it's very exciting. And it's been received very well. So I just wanted to tell you about the student loans and special needs. But we're here for a reason today that is very exciting. And I'm thrilled to announce that at my direction, the United States Air Force is moving forward with the world's first sixth generation fighter jet number six sixth generation nothing in the world comes even close to it and it'll be known as the f-47 the generals picked a title and uh it's a beautiful number f-47 it's something the likes of which nobody has seen before in terms of all of the attributes
Starting point is 00:26:47 of a fighter jet. There's never been anything even close to it from speed to maneuverability to what it can have to payload. And this has been in the works for a long period of time. After a rigorous and thorough competition between some of America's top aerospace companies, the Air Force is going to be awarding the contract for the next generation air dominance platform to Boeing. As you know, it was highly competed for. There was a lot of competition, generals,
Starting point is 00:27:18 and it's been going on for a long time. Very, very tough competition, but this plane has produced numbers that nobody's ever seen before. The F-47 will be the most advanced, most capable, most lethal aircraft ever built. An experimental version of the plane has secretly been flying for almost five years, and we're confident that it massively overpowers the capabilities of any other nation there's no other nation we know every other plane I've seen every one of them and it's not even close this is a next level you know level five is good this is level six they say the F-47
Starting point is 00:27:59 is equipped with state-of-the-art stealth technology. It's virtually unseeable and unprecedented power. It's got the most power of any jet of its kind ever made. Maneuverability, likewise, is the...there's never been anything like it, despite the power and speed. Its speed is top, over two, which is something that you don't hear very often. America's enemies will never see it coming. Hopefully, we won't have to use it for that purpose, but you have to have it. And if it ever happens, they won't know what the hell hit them. A new fleet of these magnificent planes will be built in the and in the air during my administration for the next couple of years it's ready to go they've already built much of what has
Starting point is 00:28:52 to be built in terms of production including the sheds will ensure that the usa continues to dominate the skies we're given an order for a lot We can't tell you the price because it would give it would give way to some of the technology and some of the size of the plant, good size plant. This contract also represents a historic investment in our defense industrial base, helping to keep America at the cutting edge of aerospace and technology. Our allies are calling constantly. They want to buy them also. And we'll certain allies will be selling them perhaps toned down versions. We'd like to tone them down about 10%, which probably makes sense because someday maybe they're not our allies. Right. But I would like to ask Secretary Hegseth, who's doing a fantastic job. He's really, really been very inspiring in so many ways.
Starting point is 00:29:48 And I must say that before he speaks, we have had record people wanting to join our military in the last two and a half months, literally since this, I think probably since the election, November 5th, but especially since we came to office and since I announced Pete. He's young, he's smart, he's strong, he loves it. And they love him. But we've had record numbers of people wanting to join our military.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Now, if you go back six months, it was the exact opposite. You had record numbers of people not wanting to join the military. Now you have record numbers of people wanting to be in our military. And that's a really, that's a great honor. That shows you we're really on the right track. So Pete, maybe say a few words. Sure.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Well, Mr. President, this is a big day. This is a big day for our war fighters. This is a big day for our country, a big day in the world. The name of this program is the next generation of air dominance mr president because of your leadership your clarity uh we are going to america is going to have a gen generations in the future of air dominance because of this sixth generation fighter we've had the f-15, we had the F-16, the F-18, the F-22, the F-35. Now we have the F-47, which sends a very direct, clear message to our allies that we're not going
Starting point is 00:31:17 anywhere and to our enemies that we will be able to project power around the globe unimpeded for generations to come. Mr. President, this is a gift to my kids and your kids, to my grandkids and your grandkids. This is a historic investment in the American military, in the American industrial base, in American industry that will help revive the warrior ethos inside our military, which we're doing, rebuild our military, which the previous administration did not do, by the way, Mr. President. They paused this program and were prepared to potentially scrap it. We know this is cheaper, longer range and more stealthy. President Trump said we're reviving it and we're doing it. And then we are also going to reestablish
Starting point is 00:32:00 deterrence. Under the previous administration, we looked like fools. Not anymore. President Trump has reestablished American leadership. The F-47 is part of it. And Mr. President, thank you for having the courage to do it and leading the way for all our war fighters. Thank you very much, Pete. One of the things I will say, but the generals are going to speak in just a couple of seconds. But this plane flies with drones. It flies with many, many drones, as many as you want. And it's a technology that's new, but it doesn't fly by itself. It flies with many drones, as many as we want.
Starting point is 00:32:37 And that's something that no other plane can do. So I'd like to introduce, if I might, Air Force Chief of Staff General David Alvin and also General Dale White, two incredible people that I've known over the years, but I got to know really well over the last few months. And would you say a few words, please, General? Thank you very much, Mr. President. Mr. President, Mr. Secretary, thank you so much for your unwavering commitment to our military. I will say that this is a big day. This is a big day for our United States Air Force as well. You know, air dominance is not a birthright,
Starting point is 00:33:11 but it's become synonymous with American air power. But air dominance needs to be earned every single day. And since the earliest days of aerial warfare, brave American airmen have jumped into their machines, taken to the air, and they've cleared the skies. And whether that be clearing the sky so we can rain down destruction on our enemies from above or we can clear the path to the ground forces below that's been our commitment to the fight that's really been our promise to america and with this at 47 as the crown jewel in the next generation air dominance family of systems we're going to
Starting point is 00:33:46 be able to keep that promise well into the future i also want to thank everyone from industry and with the government our engineers who have put worked tirelessly on this program to bring it where we are right now today this shows that american talent american skill and american determination are second to none because this platform is second to none. So we believe that this provides more lethality. It provides more capability, more modernized capability in a way that is built to adapt. This, along with our collaborative combat aircraft the president talked about with drones. This is allowing us to look into the future and unlock the magic that is human machine teaming. And as we do that, we're going to write the next generation of modern aerial warfare with
Starting point is 00:34:34 this. This enables us to do this. The manner in which we put this program together puts more control in the hands of the government so we can update and adapt at the speed of relevance, at the speed of technology, not at the speed of your honors. This is more Air Force. This is more options for the President. We say as our mission in the United States Air Force is to fly, fight, and win air power anytime, anywhere. If you want to go anywhere, you have to have a platform that gets you anywhere. This provides the President options from the very one end, which is
Starting point is 00:35:05 a quick response, and then we can get right back into fighting stance without having to deploy troops that are going to take maybe months and cost more lives. We can be back in fighting stance, and maybe we restore that deterrence all the way to decisive victory as part of a joint force that is the most lethal and capable military ever in our history. That's what we provide now, and this allows us to provide it into the history. That's what we provide now. And this allows us to provide it into the future. It's more deterrence, more capability. It's what peace through strength looks like
Starting point is 00:35:32 in the future, Mr. President. And so we're very proud of that. And all we can say is, on behalf of the United States Air Force, let's deliver. Thank you very much. Thank you, Chairman. You'd like to say something? No, sir, I'll just don't know what the chief said.
Starting point is 00:35:45 He knows what to do. He knows who the boss is. That's exactly right. Your security is what it's all about. That's great. Thank you very much. Great job. We've worked together long and hard on this and this was a big secret. In fact, we don't show too much of the plane for that reason. See what we show? You see how beautiful that is, but that's just a very small part of it i wasn't surprised i was wondering how much even a show if they came in with that
Starting point is 00:36:13 you see a wheel in the front that's about it uh any questions president trump 80 000 pages of documents is a lot to sit through can. Can you just tell us who killed Kennedy? Well, you know, I was given the task of releasing that because many presidents have gone through it and they haven't released. And I said, release. We even released Social Security numbers. I didn't want anything deleted. They said, so what about Social Security?
Starting point is 00:36:43 People long gone, but they're long gone. So I can't imagine. But I said, if you don't delete it, if you do delete it, we have people are going to say, why did you delete it? There's something in there. So we gave Social Security, we gave everything. And the rest is for you to look at, Peter, you're going to see whether or not you see anything. But we've given it, we're doing it with Dr. Martin Luther King, too. They're preparing all of that. They're going to release everything and whoever else they want. I mean, you know, we have nothing, we really have nothing to hide. We shouldn't have, you know, when a lot of time goes by, but with the Kennedy files in particular, they were going crazy on. I don't think there's anything that's earth shattering, but you'll have to make that determination in those. You know, it's 80,000. It's actually 88,000. And we have some additional things, as you know, come out today. And for that, you can go to the offices and you can see whatever you want to see everything is out there totally open the additional stuff is available later on today you go over to the offices and you can have it immediately and you'll make a determination and on something else these trend day guys because of your executive order they are designated as foreign terrorists if isis or al-qaeda foreign terrorists were operating here in the united
Starting point is 00:38:06 states cops would probably be shooting first and asking questions later and so what is the difference between terrorists between somebody like an isis or an al-qaeda operative versus a ms-13 or trend aragwa, these are people that focus on destroying people in their homes. They're not as international in that sense. They're a group of thugs. They come from Venezuela. They come from the prisons of Venezuela.
Starting point is 00:38:36 They're very, very dangerous people, but they didn't look so dangerous when the guards took care of the situation from El Salvador. And I want to thank the president. He's a friend of mine. He's done a great job. But I just can't imagine that the Democrats are taking this issue where they want to have them back. You know, so now they have men playing in women's sports.
Starting point is 00:39:00 They have transgender for everyone. They have open borders. They have all of their crazy policies that are, I think, 95-5, not 90-10. Okay. And their new policy is, let's bring Fendi, Aragua back into our country. Let's bring the worst. These are the worst gang members there are.
Starting point is 00:39:17 They looked amazingly frail, though, by the way they were handled. It's very amazing. You know, they weren't when they were in Colorado cutting the fingers off a man because he made a phone call to the police, they seemed a lot tougher then than they did when they were having
Starting point is 00:39:32 their heads shaved and they were in shackles. They're tough people. They're bad people. We don't want them in our country. We can't let a judge say that he wants them. You know, he didn't run
Starting point is 00:39:42 for president. He didn't get much more than 80 million votes. And we just can't let that happen. It'd be so bad for our country. I won on the basis of getting criminals out of our country that were let in, it was called unforced error. They were let in by Biden, incompetently let in,
Starting point is 00:40:01 and let in by the millions, actually. 21 million people, I believe it's 21 million. And that's not even including the gotaways, but these are rough people. We want them out of our country. And I won the election based at least partly on that. And that's a big part. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:17 Can I ask you something? There's something totally different. I don't know if you saw this. Tim Walz is now saying about Trump supporters, and forgive me, I'm just reading a quote from Tim Walls. I think I could kick most of their ass. Oh, boy. He'd be in trouble. Is there any way to know?
Starting point is 00:40:34 Well, he's a loser. Yeah, I mean, he lost an election. He played a part. You know, usually a vice president doesn't play a part, they say. I think Tim played a part. I think he was so bad that he hurt her, but she hurt herself, and Joe hurt them both. They didn't have a great group,
Starting point is 00:40:52 but I would probably put him at the bottom of the group. Have you heard that Biden wants to get back involved for Democratic politicians fundraising and campaigning against your policies? What do you think of that? I hope so. Mr. President, there's several families. Mr. President, there are families from some of the people. and campaigning against your policies what do you think of that their families from some of the people that were on those flights to el salvador that claim that they're not criminals they're not members of prenderagua of ms-13 what can you tell them and what guarantees can you give them that everyone in those planes
Starting point is 00:41:27 were actual criminals, terrorists, as you said? Well, I was told that they went through a very strong vetting process and that that will also be continuing in El Salvador. And if there's anything like that, we would certainly want to find out. But these were a bad group. This was a bad group this was a bad group and they were in bad areas and they were with a lot of other people that were absolutely killers murderers uh and people that were really bad with the worst records you've ever seen
Starting point is 00:41:56 and uh but we will continue that process absolutely we don't want to make that kind of a mistake is the u.s planning to give up the position of NATO's Supreme Allied Commander? And if so, why? NATO is something that I say. NATO was gone until I came along. In fact, the previous Secretary General, very good man. Both of them are good. The current man is fantastic.
Starting point is 00:42:20 But both of them said if it wasn't for Trump, you wouldn't even have a NATO because we were paying the cost of almost all of the countries. And now they're paying. I said, we're not going to do this. We're not going to continue. You heard us on trade. You do bad things on trade. And then on top of it, we're supposed to pay for your military. And because of what I did, hundreds of billions of dollars flowed into NATO by countries that just weren't paying. They were delinquent. They weren't paying their bills. So NATO is solid. They're strong. But they have to treat us fairly.
Starting point is 00:42:54 Because, look, without us, NATO is not the same. And I can tell you I've been having very good discussions, as you know, with President Zelensky and with President Putin. And President Putin will tell you that without the United States, he wouldn't be worried. But he is worried when the United States is involved. And I have to tell you, I've dealt very well with both gentlemen, and we have, I think we have the confines of a deal. I hope we have the confines of a deal i hope we have the confines of a deal i'm doing it for two reasons number one and by far most importantly thousands of young people and they're not american people they're russian and the ukrainian are being killed every week thousands a week
Starting point is 00:43:38 and also the united states has paid because of biden 350 billion on a war that should have never happened. If we had a competent president in this great city right here, that war would have never happened. It would have absolutely never happened with me. And it didn't happen for four years. It didn't happen. Mr. President, do you think you have the authority, the power to round up people, deport them, and then you're under no obligation to a court to show the evidence against them. Well, that's what the law says, and that's what our country needs, because we were unfortunate. There are very few things that you can be certain of in life. But you can always be sure the sun will rise each morning.
Starting point is 00:44:16 You can bet your bottom dollar that you'll always need air to breathe and water to drink. And, of course, you can rest assured that with Public Mobile's 5G subscription phone plans, you'll pay the same thing every month. With all of the mysteries that life has to offer, a few certainties can really go a long way. Subscribe today for the peace of mind you've been searching for. Public Mobile. Different is calling. They allowed millions of people to come into our country, totally unvetted, totally unchecked. So you want to ask, did he have the authority to allow millions of people? Did Biden have the authority to do something that's unthinkable? Have open borders where millions of people poured into our country, totally unvetted and totally unchecked, just as you would say.
Starting point is 00:45:00 And many of those people were criminals. Many of them were from jails and prisons and mental institutions and gang members and drug dealers and very dangerous people many were murderers we have 11 088 that we know of murders they murdered of that number at least half killed more than one person they're in our country they're they're in a location near you. Biden allowed that to happen to our country. And his people that really ran the country. And the person that operated the auto pen.
Starting point is 00:45:37 I think we ought to find out who that was because I guess that was the real president. So when you ask me if we have the authority, did Biden have the authority to allow millions of people to come into our country? Many of these people hardened criminals at the top of the line who have caused tremendous damage in our country. You see them in New York City fighting with our police. I mean, literally having fistfights in the street with our police. These are tough, hard criminals. Many of them came out of jails and not just South America, from all over the world. They came out of from Africa, from the Congo. They came out from Asia, not just South America, but many from South America. These are hard, tough criminals and we have to get them out. And a judge sitting behind a bench someplace got a nice appointment. You can't take that away from the people that are responsible now in this case marco
Starting point is 00:46:25 rubio has a lot of big decisions to make and he's a fantastic person a great man i think he'll be our best i think he has a chance to be our best secretary of state he's been doing incredible he works so hard he stopped he's gone to so many different countries already, and he's got the authority to get bad people out of our country. And you can't stop that with a judge sitting behind a bench that has no idea what goes on Musk was going to be shown a 20 to 30 page presentation about a theoretical war plan against China. Why not just show it to Elon? Because I don't want to show it to anybody. You know, you're talking about a potential war with China. Now, I deal with these people all the time and I'm dealing with Pete.
Starting point is 00:47:24 I'm dealing with these gentlemen on numerous different airplane purchases. And I think they're all going to be great. But I don't want other people seeing anybody seeing potential war with China. We don't want to have a potential war with China. But I can tell you, if we did, we're very well equipped to handle it. But I don't want to show that to anybody. But certainly you wouldn't show it to a businessman who is helping us so much he's a great patriot he's taking he's paying a big price for helping us cut costs and he's doing a great job he's finding tremendous waste fraud and abuse
Starting point is 00:47:56 but i certainly wouldn't want you know elon has businesses in china and he would be susceptible perhaps to that but it was such a fake story. The New York Times is just as fake as CNN and MSDNC. And anybody read that story, people laughed at that story. Who would do such a thing? And the first thing I did is I called Susie and I called Pete. I said, is there any truth to that? And they said, it ridiculous now he's over there to talk about cost you might want to address that but uh elon was over there today to address cost doge thing called doge which you've heard about that's exactly right mr president you you pointed out it was a fake story we we pointed out it was uh it was meant to sort of undermine whatever relationship the pentagon has with Elon Musk.
Starting point is 00:48:45 Elon Musk is a patriot. Elon Musk is an innovator. Elon Musk provides a lot of capabilities our government and our military rely on, and I'm grateful for that. We welcomed him today to the Pentagon to talk about Doge, to talk about efficiencies, to talk about innovations. It was a great informal conversation. The rest of that reporting was fake. There was no war plans. There was no Chinese war plans. There was no secret plans. That's not what we were doing in the Pentagon. I might add that I think Elon, if they ever wanted to do that, I think Elon wouldn't do it.
Starting point is 00:49:14 I think he wouldn't do it. He wouldn't want to put himself in that position. But if you read what's out of the New York Times, it's such a dishonest newspaper. It's such garbage. It used to be called all the news that's fit to print. Well, it's all the newsest newspaper. It's such garbage. It's, you know, it used to be called all the news that's fit to print. Well, it's all the news that's not fit to print. They have fake sources, or they don't have sources. I think I make most of it up. But this was a made up story by the New York
Starting point is 00:49:35 Times. I call it the failing. It's a failing newspaper. It's failing. And they shouldn't do that. They really are the enemy of the people. And We do need honest journalism. We've made such big strides over the last two months, but we just need honest journalism, and we don't have it. When you have a CNN, you have to watch these people every once in a while just to see where they're coming from, and it's so dishonest. MSNBC is, I think, probably probably worse and they're both doing horribly in
Starting point is 00:50:05 the ratings i think they're going to be turned off i don't think they're not doing any ratings you're doing well on the ratings is meeting their chinese counterpart next week is there anything that they can do to uh to stop april 2nd or to to roll back the tariffs that you put on China already? Well, we can talk, but basically I call April 2nd. I would have made it April 1st, but I didn't want to be April Fool's Day because then nobody would believe what I said. And they do believe me. April 2nd is going to be Liberation Day for America. We've been ripped off by every country in the world, friend and foe. We've been ripped off on trade. We've been ripped off by every country in the world friend and foe we've been
Starting point is 00:50:45 ripped off on trade we've been ripped off on military we protect people and they don't do anything for us we it's just so unfair for years and years and now some of that money is going to be coming back to us in the form of tariffs there i mean tens of. It's going to be numbers like nobody's ever seen. So NVIDIA announced today, you saw that, hundreds of billions of dollars of investment. The biggest chipmaker in the world announced hundreds of billions of dollars of investment. Hundreds of billions, not millions, but billions.
Starting point is 00:51:21 They're all coming here. Apple just announced $500 billion worth. They're going to build plants here. You know, they built their plants in China. They're going to build them here. And they're starting immediately. We have investment, the likes of which this country has never seen, already announced. And they all want to have news conferences. I don't have enough time to have that many news conferences but uh i would say so far at least four trillion dollars four trillion dollars is coming in car companies very importantly a lot of the car companies that we're going to build in mexico or canada are now
Starting point is 00:51:54 building here because i don't want cars from canada i don't want cars from mexico they want to do it it's fine but i want the car companies to build here not you know they were building in mexico three plants big plants really big you know they were building in mexico three plants big plans really big plans and they were going to sell the cars right across the border we wouldn't have the jobs we wouldn't have the profits we wouldn't get the taxes we get nothing all we get is unemployment and empty factories those days are over so now uh those three places are going to build here but many more than than that. We have a big one. Honda is building just announced a really big plant in Indiana. Great state, smart place to build. And we have many car companies coming here. The steel mills are going to be booming,
Starting point is 00:52:36 going to be booming. And many other things come with that, but we need that for defense. You know, there are certain things you have to have. You have to have steel. We would have had, if I didn't do in my first term tariffs to stop the onslaught, because they were dumping steel in order to destroy our steel plants. If I didn't do 50 percent and even 100 percent in certain cases tariffs on steel, you wouldn't have a steel plant in the United States. And Biden was unable to get rid of those tariffs because they threw off so much money that his numbers, which didn't work anyway, because his numbers were terrible. What he did, the way he spent money was so horrible. And what he allowed to happen to energy. That's the other thing. Energy is going to be like it's never been before uh mr vice president is here
Starting point is 00:53:25 if you have it do you have anything to say while you're here no sir i'm good vice president i'm just here to watch the show sir i think airplanes are pretty cool so i wanted to check this out it is cool china can do to take off the trade war at this point though well i'll be speaking to presidency i have a great relationship with him We're going to have a very good relationship. But we have a trillion dollar deficit because of Biden with President Xi. More than that. I mean, killing. I think the number is much higher than 125, 115. I think it's closer to 300,000 people a year. And so that's a problem. But they have a tremendous surplus against the United States, and we don't want that. Mr. President, why do you want to control the rates how a number of industries have come to you asking for exceptions on tariffs?
Starting point is 00:54:26 Is that something that is under consideration by you? Well, people are coming to me and talking about tariffs, and a lot of people are asking me if they could have exceptions. And once you do that for one, you have to do that for all. So, I mean, generally, I did something interestingly during two weeks ago. I gave the American car companies a break because it would have been unfair if I didn't.
Starting point is 00:54:51 And everybody said, oh, he changed his mind. I didn't change my mind. I helped our sort of big three, big four. I helped some of the American companies. And instead of taking it properly, they said, oh, he changed it. I don't change. But the word flexibility is an important word. Sometimes there's flexibility. So there'll be flexibility. But basically, it's reciprocal. So that if China is charging us 50 percent or 30 percent or 20 percent, and I don't mean China, I mean anybody, any country, Canada. Nobody knows that Canada is charging our dairy farmers.
Starting point is 00:55:27 They have 270% tariffs. Nobody knows that. Nobody knows that. They have up to 400%. They have a couple of tariffs at 400%. Nobody knows that. Nobody talks about that. And remember with Canada, we don't need their cars. We don't need their lumber. We don't need their energy. We don't need anything from Canada. And yet it costs us $200 billion a year in subsidy to keep Canada afloat. If we were elected to carry a country that is right next to us on our border, it would be a great state. It would be a cherished state. The taxes for Canadian citizens would go down in less than half. They don't spend money on military because they think we're going to protect them.
Starting point is 00:56:20 There are many things that they do, like icebreakers. They want us to provide icebreakers for them oh that's wonderful so uh the canada they're very tough traders too okay i want to just tell you all the people they're tough traders they trade very tough and you know the expression i use is some people don't have the cards i used that expression about a week and a half ago right somebody was negotiating who didn't have the cards. I used that expression about a week and a half ago, right? Somebody was negotiating who didn't have the cards, who's now, I think, saying that he wants to do it. And I think we're gonna have a big deal
Starting point is 00:56:52 on that very special something. We've gotta make a deal on that. But Canada has been a very nasty negotiator against the United States, took advantage of the United States for a long time, but nobody knows that they were getting 270% tariffs on dairy products. I don't think I've heard you say this in all of the talk about Canada becoming the 51st state. Are you concerned that if they became the 51st state,
Starting point is 00:57:18 they would be a very, very blue state? Very, very big and very, very blue. No, they might be, uh it would you know you have that artificial line that goes that straight part of it that looked like it was drawn by a ruler somebody with a i don't mean a ruler like a king i mean like a ruler like a ruler this way and uh it's just an artificial line that was drawn in the sand or in the ice. You add that to this country? What a beautiful landmass,
Starting point is 00:57:52 the most beautiful landmass anywhere in the world. And it was just cut off for whatever reason. It would be great. Now, is it liberal? Maybe, but you know, a conservative, until I got involved, because I don't care who wins up there. Frankly, probably would do better with the liberal than the conservative if you want another truth but um just a little
Starting point is 00:58:10 while ago before I got involved and totally changed the election which I don't care about probably it's our advantage actually but the conservative was leading against I call him Governor Trudeau uh the conservative was leading by 35 points. So, you know, so I don't know about that. I think Canada is a place like a lot of other places. If you have a good candidate, the candidate's going to win. And the two astronauts that you just helped save from space, they didn't get any overtime pay for all that extra time. They got $5 a day per diem for 286 days. That is $1,430 in extra pay. Is there anything the administration can do to get them, to make them whole?
Starting point is 00:58:57 Well, nobody's ever mentioned this to me. If I have to, I'll pay it out of my own pocket, okay? I'll get it for them. Mr. President, I like that. I'll buy it right out of my, is, okay? I'll get it for you. Mr. President, I like that. I'll buy it right out of my... Is that all? That's not a lot. But what they had to go through.
Starting point is 00:59:11 And I want to thank Elon Musk, by the way, because think if we don't have him. You know, there's only so long, even though they're in the capsule up there, that the body starts to deteriorate after nine or 10 months and gets really bad after 14, 15 months with the bones and the blood and all the things that you've been reporting on very well. And if
Starting point is 00:59:33 we don't have Elon, they could be up there a long time. Who else is going to get him? And I just want to thank him. He's going through a lot, what they're doing to him. And these people are going to be caught and they're going to be caught and they're going to be prosecuted and from what they tell me i see this just by watching your programs and reading the news but from what they tell me they could get 20 years in jail and they'll get it i'll tell you there's going to be no leniency and there'll be no pardons i can tell you that right and you said this morning 20 years in jail, and then maybe they'll go to one of these prisons in El Salvador. Do you think with the way that the judges have been issuing injunctions, it would be easier or harder to send these Tesla domestic terrorists to a jail in El Salvador than these MS-13 or Trende Aragua guys?
Starting point is 01:00:22 Well, I view these people as terrorists just like others. These are, when I looked at those showrooms burning and those cars, not one or two, like seven, eight, 10 burning, exploding all over the place. These are terrorists. You didn't have that on January 6th, I can tell you. You didn't have anything like that on January 6th, which is sort of amazing because on January 6th the uh democrats were talking nobody was killed other than a very beautiful young woman ashley ashley babbitt uh nobody was
Starting point is 01:00:56 killed and you look at what's going on now with these terrorists he's a terrorist so that's an organized event you know take a look at their signs. Take a look. They're all made by the same sign company. A nice, expensive job. Now, these are the people that finance it are, in my opinion, in just as big a trouble as the people that are setting the match and setting the fires. So we'll see. It's under very serious investigation by the FBI
Starting point is 01:01:22 and by the Justice Department. These people are terrorists. The Press- Mr. President, you mentioned a deal with Ukraine. Mr. President, what do you say to American military families who are seeing Elon Musk at the Pentagon today, are hearing about Defense Department cuts, and their thoughts are immediately going to the safety of their loved ones who are currently deployed? Well, we're making our country strong. And when they see a thing like that and they hear that story about Elon and China,
Starting point is 01:01:49 what they should do is realize that the New York Times is a corrupt institution because I think they're the ones, they knew that story wasn't true. Nobody believed that story. People that, when I first called, they laughed when they heard this story. Nobody believed it,
Starting point is 01:02:02 that the Pentagon was giving him a briefing on what war with China would look like. And he has businesses. No, they made that up because it's a good story to make up. They're very dishonest people. Look, I have it with the Times and you'll see more and more of it. To me, it's a very, very, very dishonest organization. But a story like that is made up, it's total fiction. And I just wanted to make sure. I called up chief of staff and I called up Pete, and I said, is there any truth to that? Absolutely not.
Starting point is 01:02:37 He's there for Doge, not there for China. And if you ever mentioned China, I think he'd walk out of the room. He wouldn't take it anyway. So it's just a made-up story. Nobody's taking better care of the military. One of the things that I know that Pete's doing is he's talking about a lot of the civilian staff, and we're going to get them other jobs. You know, we're going to have a lot of jobs in this country, but we don't want to have wasteful jobs.
Starting point is 01:03:02 We want to have meaningful jobs. And those are all wasteful jobs we want to have meaningful jobs and those were wasteful jobs those are jobs that not only military but jobs where people don't show up we had you take a look at department of education i've never seen so many buildings with the names on it you go past one after another department of education and they're empty the people don't show up you know why why? Because they have other jobs, because they're playing golf or they're playing something, they're doing something. And we have a lot of great people, but we have to move that back to the States. We're going to make our country strong and we're going to get people much better jobs because we have companies moving into our country, the likes of which we've never seen before. Nothing like this has happened. And it's automatic.
Starting point is 01:03:45 They don't want to pay the tariffs. How do you avoid paying the tariffs? You build your plant in the United States. And it's a beautiful thing to see. I see it. So far, I would say $4 trillion. Nobody's ever heard of them. No country's ever heard of numbers like that.
Starting point is 01:04:03 $4 trillion. And those are the best ones. The the biggest best chip maker in the world i don't i'm not a fan of the chip act where you give billions away to billions of dollars away to companies that don't need it and it won't bring them here uh i'm giving nothing away all they're doing is coming here they're building because they want to avoid. Remember this on the tariffs, too, because that's going to be, you know, Liberation Day, April 2nd. It's reciprocal. If they charge us, we charge them. So somebody said, well, how much are the tariffs?
Starting point is 01:04:35 Very fair. If India, as an example, has been very bad to us on tariffs, they 100 200 whatever they charge now europe uh just announced they're lowering the tariffs on cars you know we charge like a joke two and a half percent that's what this country charges europe just announced that they're reducing their tariffs on cars to two and a half percent it's nice but they also have non-monetary tariffs where they make it impossible for the cars to get in even without the dollars on them and the dollar signs. It's called a
Starting point is 01:05:11 non-monetary tariff where they put on controls where no matter what happens, because they don't want cars. They don't want the American car in their market. And yet they send us millions of cars. They send us big agriculture. They don't want our agriculture. They don't want anything from us. European Union is very tough.
Starting point is 01:05:28 But now it's fair. So whatever they do to us, we do to them. The Press. The Press. Russia continues to attack Ukraine. Are you planning to impose any sort of sanctions? The President. Secretary Mnuchin.
Starting point is 01:05:43 Secretary Mnuchin. The Press. Secretary Mnuchin. Are you planning to impose any sort of safety? Well, they're fighting against each other. Yeah, I think we're going to have a ceasefire on a lot of areas, and so far that's all held very well. And getting that ceasefire, you know, they had a lot of guns pointing at each other. Some soldiers, unfortunately, surrounded by other soldiers. And they are going to be, I believe, we're going to pretty soon have a full ceasefire, and then we're going to have a contract. And the contract's being negotiated, the contract in terms of dividing up the lands, et cetera, et cetera.
Starting point is 01:06:13 It's being negotiated as we speak. What do you say to critics who say that your actions towards law firms are amount to coercion? Well, the law firms all want to make deals. You mean the law firms that we're going after that went after me for four years ruthlessly violently illegally i mean are those the law firms you're talking about they're not babies they're very sophisticated people uh those law firms did bad things bad things they went after me for years
Starting point is 01:06:42 uh russia russia russia hoax Russia hoax. All a hoax. It was a hoax. It was Hunter Biden's laptop. It didn't come out of Russia, by the way. It came out of his bedroom. It was all a hoax developed by Democrats. Hillary. I don't think Biden did because I don't think Biden knows what the hell he's doing, based on everything i see i've seen since being here that is so sad what he's done to this country what what he and they did to this country those
Starting point is 01:07:11 people that surrounded him who by the way are radical left but smart he's not smart he was never smart but these are radical left smart people they totally controlled him he did whatever they told him to do and it's a a shame. It's so sad to see what happened, what they've done to this country, both not only the inflation, the inflation you saw, but allowing millions of criminals, millions and millions of criminals into our country. That's an inexcusable act. And many other things besides that. Thank you very much. Mr. President, we talked to one more question on the grave. Thank you. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:07:59 We're gonna... Okay. Alright. We can stop now. Okay. So we've tried our hardest to incorporate sound effects into the stream. Now, we sometimes cover very serious topics like Donald Trump talking about hostages and wars and new fighter jets and leaked memos and jfk assassinations so it's not exactly the right time to do a sound effect right okay yeah i know but you can do it we can do it we got it we got our uh you know we got our donald trump is your president sound effect the future of mega is here this is my first time on a rap album but not last stay tuned come on okay so that's the point you know this is the this is this is what we're trying to do
Starting point is 01:09:00 here is make this as entertaining as possible for everyone. President Trump on a rampage, rampage there. And we're speaking of being as entertaining as possible, just checking in to make sure that our next guest who's been very, very patient is ready to go. And the man who is possibly one of the most entertaining politicians in America right now, this side of President Trump, a man who has entertained tens of millions, hundreds of millions throughout his exceptional career as a WWE wrestler, lovingly known as Kane, now known as Mr. Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee. Glenn Jacobs joins the show live now. Mr. Mayor, I just want to start off by saying
Starting point is 01:10:00 welcome to the program, and this is pretty kick-ass. Thank you for being so patient with us and president trump here's the new fighter that was uh just revealed by the white house i mean it looks awesome and so you've always been picky about your produce but now you find yourself checking every label to make sure it's canadian so be it at sobees we always pick guaranteed fresh Canadian produce first. Restrictions apply. See in-store or online for details.
Starting point is 01:10:31 And I think as a, you know, as a man's man, you love these press conferences because, well, every boy grows up wanting to want to fly in one of these, right? Yeah, that is pretty cool. It's very sleek. It looks very stealthy, actually. It looks awesome. We have a very masculine administration, and it's been a really refreshing change of pace. New data out this morning showing that young men are actually more right-wing than their 70-year-old grandfathers, that young men are actually more right wing than their 70 year old grandfathers, that young white men specifically are like, I'm completely done with wokeness and are the most red pilled of any generation ever. The Republican Party has a total and complete
Starting point is 01:11:19 monopoly on masculinity. How did that happen, Mr. Mayor? It's a pendulum swing. The Democrats for many years now have concentrated on promoting a narrative of effeminate men and very weak women, and that's just been rejected. Ultimately, it doesn't work. I mean, you get someone like Donald Trump in the White House, and you realize he's doing all this stuff. I mean, that guy is literally kicking butt right now with everything that he's doing. It's been amazing. And people see that and they realize, where has this been the past four years? Unfortunately, you had someone in the White House, sadly, who's we haven't heard anything about Joe Biden since he left office. It was pretty amazing to me because normally the president stays in the public's eye.
Starting point is 01:11:59 But unfortunately, you know, he he was suffering from severe cognitive decline while he was there and it was just terrible weak leadership. And then literally, you know, literally this term toxic masculinity and just attacking men and really at the same time also attacking strong women, because what the Democrats want is they want weak people who are dependent on the government, who will do anything that they say. And that is completely contrary to what Americans are and what we should be, frankly. Yes, they do. They want weakness. They want smooth brain. They want sheep. They want people that are easy to control. And for everybody else, they'll put them in the covid concentration camp. And, you know, we got got a system for you. It's running right. There you go. That's exactly right. That's right. OK, so, Mr. Mayor, you have made quite a few headlines this week.
Starting point is 01:12:51 Speaking of effeminate men. Yeah, there's a feminine man right here who was talking some smack. Now, this is something that you know how to do professionally. So I'm not sure it's even fair. But this is what Tim Walls said. He said that he could kick MAGA's ass. I'm going to jump to the clip here. Let's have a listen. I think we're wrong not to understand more deeply and fully that people think we are deeply full of ourselves and we're talking down to people and past people. People want to be protected. They want to be respected and they want to be connected. And I think this notion of respect is something that keeps coming back to me. People
Starting point is 01:13:29 that just feel like we don't respect this notion. I think I could kick most of their ass. I do. But I don't know if we're going to fall into that place where we want to, okay, we challenge you to a, you you to a WWE fight here type of thing. So do you think that Tim Walls could kick most of your ass? No, I don't. And I think one of the most interesting parts of that interview is Gavin Newsom's reaction. You can immediately tell he's like that nervous laugh.
Starting point is 01:14:04 He's like, oh my gosh, what did he just say? And of course, now we've seen what has happened. It's just gone all over the place. But that was, first of all, it's completely inappropriate. Could you imagine if Donald Trump had said something like that, or if I'd said something like that, I would be excoriating for threatening people. But it's funny when Tim Walz does it, right? But it also shows that, again, I think this memo went out among the Democrats that, hey, guys, we have to act tough now. But they don't know how to act tough because they're not tough people. And I don't even mean tough guy. I just mean, I think about my dad who grew up in the Great Depression. And he was not a bully or anything like that. but he was, he's a masculine
Starting point is 01:14:46 guy. That's what he had to do to survive. I even think about my mom, same thing, grew up in the Great Depression. She is a rock. She's a very stoic person. So it's completely different than these guys. You feel that they have to, the way you act tough is you literally threaten people. And that's not being tough that's just being juvenile so i wanted to play you some of tim wallace's greatest moves here uh these these are really something special maybe you could break them down for us mr mayor so this is um i'm not sure what you'd call i'm not sure what you'd call this the flamboyant jazz hands the uh uh too high of an estrogen level for any man to ever live with happy fingers yes happy fingers fingers these are very threatening moves you know you can really see these in the ring and i'm in i am intimidated yes that's right. I mean, consider the distraction of the jazz hands.
Starting point is 01:15:47 It's real quite a tactic here. So this, you know, and then then definitely the I mean, he can get he can get a real ballet kick in there, too. Yeah, I mean, hey, he's going right above his head. Yeah, he's a showman. Oh, he's going to tear something uh he's a showman i'll give you that uh but i i don't know how much of a combat arts practitioner he necessarily is but uh he certainly can't put on a good show for the crowd i think in this case though he might have written a check uh his mouth might have written a check that his body can't cash so you want to write a check to charity and fight him here we we go. Yes. Yes. You put your money where your mouth is as you've done your entire career. Yep. And you've posted right here on social media. Hey man, we're going to raise tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of
Starting point is 01:16:36 thousands of dollars for this fight. Gladly. I'll gladly pledge money to charity for this. I'll add it. We'll add another 10 grand. How about that? There you go. Okay. So we'll put in more. We're at over $50,000 in pledges at this point. Great.
Starting point is 01:16:52 Great. So let's make it happen, right? You versus Tim Walls. You're serious about this? Yeah. No, I am serious about this. Because as you just said, you're going to pledge money. I've pledged money uh so far
Starting point is 01:17:06 on on twitter these are these are legitimate sources on twitter that have pledged up to 50 000 uh and we also have a potential corporate title sponsor so this could raise a lot of money for charity we'll split the gate 50 50 between between our chosen charities. So his charity gets half, my charity gets half, and it's all for a good cause. And look, I mean, seriously, no one's going to get hurt. I promise you that. My entire career in wrestling, I was very good at taking care of people. But nevertheless, man, if you want to get in the ring with me, there we do. There it is.
Starting point is 01:17:42 And let's just do it for charity. Let's do it for good cause so we we're not in the business of helping out tim walls and we do think he's a complete asshat but we have decided our graphic designers have decided to go and assist tim walls today and i hope you don't judge us and we're certainly not trying to give aid to the enemy but we've come up with we've come up with outfits that he could win we've come up with you know we're going to start with this so we come up with what he could wear in the ring and you know to to really make himself stand out right got something you know something else what do you call that one benny well this we this we call this we call we uh the the tan i mean you just got to call this the tampon tim right you just got tampon tinkerbell tim
Starting point is 01:18:32 is this i like that this is the tampon trans tinkerbell tim so the ttt and then we'll go and that's probably his taunt. and you got to be careful on this one right you get some yeah some spot in your eyes yep and I love how in the background the marquee says Elon Musk is weird let's do let's do one more yeah here we go let's do let's do one more we can do the Madame butterflyfly. There we go. Oh, yeah. I think that's the winner, actually. Okay. And seriously, you know, Batman needed Joku.
Starting point is 01:19:31 Superman needed Lex Luger. Lex Luthor. Lex Luger's actually a great wrestler. Ali needed Frasier. Frasier needed Foreman. So, yeah. I mean, Jacobs needs Tinkerbell Tim. Tinkerbell trans tampon Tim, you see, and that's going to be pretty, pretty terrifying in the ring.
Starting point is 01:19:53 When you get those jazz hands and that glitter, it's going to be distracting. What would be your move, Kane? What's the move? Please put Tinkerbell tampon Tim back up. What's the move? How do you defeat this? Unfortunately, what might happen is I might start laughing so hard that I fall down and he just pins me and wins by default. It's true.
Starting point is 01:20:30 It might happen. So this is what he's up against. Here's the cover of your book, for instance. It would be Tinkerbell Tampon Trans Tim versus Mayor Kane. I'm not going to put the mask on. I'm not going to put the outfit on, you know, because that, that would just be too much. And I wouldn't expect an amateur to, uh, to accept that challenge, but it's just me. I mean, I'm just, just sitting here, man, Glenn Jacobs. I'm not that bad a dude. Come on, come on governor. We can do it. We're going to have a ton of fans that are going to demand though,
Starting point is 01:21:03 that I really do for lack of a better term pin you down what move would you use how would you what is your strategy how would you defeat him other than your la you laughing we understand laughing by default and losing by default yeah what would what would what strategy would you deploy here sir so ultimately it would be i would borrow a page from my alter ego and it would be the high boot followed by a choke slam and then tombstone trial pile driver. I think that's a good strategy. There you go.
Starting point is 01:21:31 There you go. Bam. Yeah. I hope nothing flies off. I got a tampon in the eye. Come on. Stop the match. That was that. This would be great. I just it'd be over, I think it'd be over.
Starting point is 01:21:51 I think it'd be over for- Yeah, imagine him as the Undertaker here, and golly, this match could be as big as anything at WrestleMania. It could. It'd be awesome. We gotta raise our number up. We'll do anything to make this possible. Anything, we'll live stream it.
Starting point is 01:22:17 We'll go there, we'll run the production. I'm happy to run the production. Anything, our graphic designer has one more option for Tim Walls as an as you know if he wants to get more intimidating he can go with Gimp Walls so there you go so many options
Starting point is 01:22:35 I'm actually scorned now so many options Mr. Mayor and we're just thrilled please, sir. Oh, I just didn't want to talk over you. We're just thrilled that somebody puts their money where their mouth is and like, and like, this is very entertaining for us. Well, thank you, Benny. I appreciate it.
Starting point is 01:23:05 Hopefully it could be entertaining for everybody. Hopefully the match comes on. Well, thank you, Benny. I appreciate it. Hopefully it could be entertaining for everybody. Hopefully the match comes on. Yes, that's right. Please follow somebody with a very, very, you could say a very promising career, but he's already had an absolutely legendary career, but now he's saving his country. You can follow him on his personal and official
Starting point is 01:23:26 accounts here. We got, we got Glenn Jacobs for Tennessee there. It looks like blowing up some Tannerite pretty kick-ass. Yes, sir. And then of course, and then of course the Kane account with 500 plus thousand subs, follow both and, uh, anything we can do uh anything we can do anything we can do mayor i'll be in touch as soon as governor walls gets back to me i'll be in touch as soon as governor walls gets back to me okay we'll do we'll do outfit design for him man i can't believe it i'm giving there you go i love it it's turnkey that's right right. We thank you, sir. Please come back soon. Godspeed. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:24:08 Appreciate it. Bye-bye. Whoo, man. Ladies and gentlemen, moving quickly here on the program. You never know. President Trump lets a rip, right? Says we're going live. You just got to go to the White House inside the Oval Office and listen.
Starting point is 01:24:28 Somebody who's been listening very closely to President Trump and to the American people, more importantly, and what they think about President Trump. much not surprised at what's happening right now, but has some brand new information for us about where President Trump stands with the population. The head pollster at Rasmussen, Mark Mitchell, our dear friend, back from the abyss. He was on every single show before the election. And now let's find out how the golden era is rolling with Mark. It's like driving an old Chevrolet, man. It's like driving an old Chevy truck. Mark, it's just so great to be back. Some of the guests that we had on before the election, you know, it's like polling doesn't polling doesn't exactly comport itself to the intermediary times, right?
Starting point is 01:25:26 When Biden's just roaming around the White House in a mustard-stained bathrobe. And so now we have two months, two solid months of Trump administration. Where are we at, Mark? Well, there was a bit of a respite, I'll be honest with you. But here we are are two months into trump's second term and there's our already like psyops flying left and right it's unbelievable they gave him like about a month until they decided well it's time to start convincing the american public that all of a sudden for the first time in eight years donald trump is massively
Starting point is 01:26:00 unpopular and i don't see it again i mean because everybody was polling like me about a month and a half ago. And I still show that Donald Trump has a 51% approval rating today. That's only down a couple of points from when he first came into office. And there's other pollsters like Emerson that show the same thing. Like, yeah, every president comes in, has a honeymoon.
Starting point is 01:26:19 It fades a little bit, three, four points. But then you have Quinnipiac and Reuters out there who've shown that their approval has gone down like 15 points. And that's fake, I think. And of course, all the mainstream media is running with it. And it's because that's all they have. The Democrats have found themselves in a horrible catch-22. They can't decide whether they want to moderate or burn the country down. And so they're left with the media trying to run cover for them. It's really sick.
Starting point is 01:26:46 So we don't care about them. I mean, it's been so awesome this last election cycle to establish relationships with people like yourself and Rasmussen where we get the real numbers and hot damn, man, were you right? You were right and everyone else was wrong.
Starting point is 01:27:04 And you just like did two straight middle fingers to the rest of the polling industry God damn, man, were you right. You were right and everyone else was wrong. And you just like did two straight middle fingers to the rest of the polling industry and lit them on fire. And it was so awesome to see. And you were on this show so regularly, Mark, saying they're lying to you. Yeah. I'm plus two, baby. That's what it was. That's right. You said it you you said it you said it from
Starting point is 01:27:26 3 000 yards away and you nailed that sucker man right dead bullseye well they were trying to do a psyop then you know it was listen she has the dnc this is our chance we can puff her up she's going to go into a debate and we're just going to give her everything she had you know reuters is going to come out and show her up plus seven and that's the best we can give her. And it's her job to take it from there. And obviously it didn't work out for them. But our numbers were just flat the entire time. And it's basically the same thing now. Imagine thinking that Donald Trump's like gathered support for almost a decade now. And all of a sudden he's starting to give people what they want and then they abandon him.
Starting point is 01:28:06 It makes no sense. It makes no sense. So what do you say to these other pollsters? Are they just going to go until broke? I know that some pollsters are actually going out of business. Yeah, it's beautiful to watch. You know, we've had Ann Seltzer implode,
Starting point is 01:28:19 FiveThirtyEight who kicked us out. It's no longer dead website. All of the poor people trying to get new jobs out there, new propaganda jobs. I mean, it's crazy. Quinnipiac folded. Everybody's consolidating. Here's another story you're not hearing about. A lot of these people aren't doing their own polling anymore. They're all referring it to Reuters and YouGov. And those are really small, incapable panels, in my opinion. So by 2028, there might not be very many real pollsters at all it's like maybe
Starting point is 01:28:46 us and a couple other people and of course nothing morning console can do will kill them for some reason but whatever i mean it's uh turns out that you can like three cycles of lying i guess it's just one too many so the american people are they're at 50. So Trump's at 51%, according to recipes. And yeah, we've had him at net plus two to net plus four. I think he's going to be there because that's what his numbers were before the election. But the number I've been referring people to is right direction. We ask people every night, Hey, is the country headed in the right direction? We actually hit 48%, which was a record for our polling for 19 years, the first time in all of our polling history, where right direction exceeded wrong track. That was two or three weeks
Starting point is 01:29:30 ago. And the number is still at 45% right now, which puts it at higher than any point in Obama's two terms. So people are really happy as measured by everything's getting cleaned up. And so all of the pearl clutching and chaos, you know, and war shipping and all of the Elon Musk virtue signaling about burning things down, it's not working. It's not going to work. So the right direction would be probably the brightest polling point for the president right now. Is that what you would say? Oh, a hundred percent. Yeah. You throw the word Trump into a question and it automatically takes a five point hit. But again, 45% right track today, higher than 98% of all data points are our entire polling history.
Starting point is 01:30:12 Wow. We do we do on occasion there, there comes across our feed, right? A, you know, Harry Enten clip on CNN. And he's gasping about how the American people actually really like what's going on in the country. And so you have the data to reflect that. It's not just CNN clickbait. Yeah, well, it turns out all the questions we asked help us understand the political context. That's one of the reasons that I wasn't that worried at the end of the day showing that Donald Trump was going to win, because I knew this wasn't, again, about Trump versus Harris. This was about overreach of the federal government, the weaponization of the DOJ, the inflation situation, the way the middle class has been squeezed. We had questions backing all
Starting point is 01:30:57 of that up. And so I've been saying Trump's had a mandate, not necessarily because of his popular vote win, which I do think was bigger than the final reported numbers but because every single one of his platform items is overwhelmingly overwhelmingly positive the idea of doge auditing things that's almost a two-to-one favor favorability among americans uh 70 of u.s likely voters are angry at the level of waste, fraud, and abuse in the government. And so it's nice of Harry to finally come along and understand the context that Joe Biden's presidency has given us. And I watch him and I actually feel kind of happy for him because I feel like he had a pretty strong set of marching orders for a while. It feels like maybe that veil has been lifted and he's able to just get get out there and tell the truth he really seems to enjoy himself when he does but you know thanks for
Starting point is 01:31:48 joining us harry yes people want illegal aliens deported people do not want the government you know uh living in largesse in washington dc creating like an entire cast of people milking the taxpayers like a bipartisan kleptocracy. Yeah, they don't want that. Imagine that. People don't want any more Democrat Party, man. Republicans at record high ratings. So that's interesting that you say take Trump out of it. So you take Trump out of it and just do two parties. Republicans record high, Democrats lowest in a generation. Democrat Party's favorability drops to record low. These are some of the headlines from across the industry. And the leader of the Democrat Party is AOC.
Starting point is 01:32:34 Oh, no. Is the Democrat Party a functional party anymore, Mark? I don't think so. I really don't um there's a huge leadership vacuum and they're in a really tough catch-22 now i will say that my democrat party favorability numbers are higher than the cnn poll so believe it you know believe me i think over them they're like 43 which makes sense right kamala harris just got 48 49 and republican party is six points better we actually just released that today. And so that's actually really astounding for the country. But the problem is, is that they have no path forward. And so they're in a situation where they know if they double down on crazy and stupid,
Starting point is 01:33:15 they're going to lose. AOC, Bernie Sanders out there on the stump with her, that's going to fail. Jasmine Crockett's not going to be able to dig them out of this. And you got Tim Waltz out there talking, I loved your previous set. It's absolutely ridiculous. The idea that he's out there like kick your ass, like violence signaling. That's not going to work, dude. People don't want that out of you guys. And then you have Gavin Newsom, who's a very astute political player. I mean, you could say what you want about his track record, but he's doing probably the right thing for the Democrats at great personal cost. They're going to tear him down.
Starting point is 01:33:48 You can see the people on Reddit talking about how they'll never let Gavin Newsom win because of what he's perpetrated on the trans community. But he's doing like objectively something good for America, talking to the other side and trying to understand their viewpoints. And so who's going to come in and fill that leadership vacuum and say, you guys are crazy because where they have to get to if they want to win is they have to have somebody who's a good enough leader to plausibly convince a majority of Americans that they have a platform that's better than America first and that they will actually enact it. And that seems like a bridge pretty far away right now. And so they might have to lose a couple cycles until they get to that situation. Yeah, like how do you un-F this party?
Starting point is 01:34:34 Here's the apportionment for the 2030 forecast. And I don't see here, Mark, how a Democrat wins nationally in a popular vote. And I sure as hell don't see how they win in an electoral college vote. Now, I want to like, I want to preface all this by saying, and Mark, I'm your freaking biggest hype man. You can't hire someone who's a better hype man than me. You came on this program and you made huge national news declaring that Donald Trump would win the popular vote. Bro, you said it in like April of last year,
Starting point is 01:35:14 we're like marking the one year anniversary where you said this, I had my producers pull it up. Like you came on the program and you'd said it like a year ago and everyone made everyone just towards you for that and lo and behold here we are with these maps saying Democrats may never win the popular vote again what's your take on that well we don't have to wait till 2030. I think we'll see how this is going to go in 2026 and ultimately the big thing I'm looking at is listen seven people left act blue they're under multiple state investigations.
Starting point is 01:35:46 They're under federal investigation, in my understanding. And so that's going to be a problem for them because they ubiquitously win on small dollar donations. Turns out it's probably recycled George Soros and NGO money going back into their coffers just miraculously exactly where they need it. And so I really question because I went back and looked at Act Blue fundraising and they raised 800 million in the 2016 cycle which was a presidential cycle and then in 2018 they raised like 1.6 billion dollars and incidentally incidentally
Starting point is 01:36:17 2018 was one of our biggest misses and so I'm really sore about that because uh you know we had the Democrats doing better than we predicted in our polling. And it could be just magical unicorn dollars dumped into those coffers that might just evaporate. And so I don't think Trump plans to run the last two years of his term without both houses of Congress. And we know how they've been sort of like sneaking out those House votes, those swing state Senate races, and that's got to stop. I don't think the map's very good for them for 2026 either. And what are they running on other than literally just burning the country to the ground? So you're obviously 26 and 28, massive, and 28.
Starting point is 01:37:00 I want to talk to you about the landscape for a Republican because clearly J.D. Vance is the number one most improved player, like MVP, like first rookie of the year, really. But before we get there, Mark, this map, dude. This is bad. This is terrible. I mean, the future looks horrible. If you are a Democrat and this won't be long. I mean, this is 2030. So this won't be a very long time before Florida and Texas become the dominant electoral vote centers of the country,
Starting point is 01:37:32 effectively making the blue wall, as we know it, unnecessary for a Republican to win the presidency. Am I reading this map correct? I mean, do Democrats have a catastrophe, an electoral college apocalypse that they're staring down? No, I think that's really fair. They wouldn't be importing millions of people a year if they weren't in this situation for sure. They got to a situation where their values don't reflect the American people and you have to do something. And so that's what they picked. They picked that and oppression. And those obviously didn't play too well. And I think things are probably worse than this map
Starting point is 01:38:09 says, because listen, there's a lot of people here that vote in federal elections that shouldn't be, that probably might self-deport between now and 2030. Now, I know that the Republicans are somewhat against this, but I'll tell you what, every time we've pulled on E-Verify, voters overwhelmingly love it and want it implemented. And that's something that a Republican Congress could do today. I know there'd be some special interests against it, but I think this map some things in there that Trump would have liked to have seen that got stripped out. And, you know, when you talk about maybe 10, 15, 20 million illegal aliens here shifting these numbers one way or the other, like that all has to get fixed. Yes. So without the criminal aliens and without criminal alien votes and apportionment and the census didn't ask your nation of origin or citizenship status, which is crazy, which is criminal.
Starting point is 01:39:11 Yeah. But without that, I mean, what would the map look like? Better than this. Yeah. Okay. All right. Yeah. So J.D. Vance coming through in recent polling.
Starting point is 01:39:24 Let's check. Whose poll is this? It's just the political polls. OK. All right. Well, Echelon. All right. Yeah, not bad. 450. What? 450 live voters. J.D. Vance, though, coming out as a as a dominant, dominant, in charge, in control. Twenty twenty eight primary. You see these numbers? numbers uh no i didn't they make total sense we haven't run a 2028 for republicans yet we're in the field right now for democrats and i think we're going to see the exact same thing other people have seen which is like once a person gets into office and is a name and a face on a national stage there's this level of name recognition that just can't be bought with a campaign so kamala harris is still the democrat
Starting point is 01:40:03 front runner by far. I don't think she wants it. I don't think she's going to go back and do it. But she has similar numbers. Yeah, okay, there it is. I've seen higher. I've seen 45, 50, 60 even, depending on the pollster. And Buttigieg with 10%, Eshle, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:40:20 I'm scratching my head on that one. I don't know what happened. If you let it be Buttigieg, tampon tim i'll give i'd do anything i'll oh man pain for him you know yeah i'm wondering where they must have pulled heavy in indiana on this one but yeah jd vance is the person he's the front runner by far even without me going into the field and it makes sense he's an extension of the maga um platform i'm surprised to see rubio you know down there Cruz territory, but maybe it's early. People haven't had a chance to figure out where he lies. Yeah, this makes sense.
Starting point is 01:40:53 Final question for you, Mark. Elon Musk, obviously, without question, the most controversial member of the administration. Doge doesn't ever get a good news day in the corporate press, at least. They do around here. What do people say about Doge and cutting waste get a good news day in the corporate press, at least they do around here. What do people say about Doge and cutting waste, fraud and abuse? I mean, that's a psychological op for sure, because right now Elon Musk has a higher favorability rating than the Democrat party by all measures. We actually had Doge outperforming Trump with a plus 11 net favorability rating. And Elon Musk was only a point or two behind Trump,
Starting point is 01:41:25 but that slipped a few points since they started torching dealerships. But who knows, maybe the dolphins coming to meet his spaceship as it came in, maybe that'll give him a bump. It doesn't matter. Trump's not going to care that Elon Musk has a 47 versus a 51% favorability rating. And Elon Musk isn't going to stop because he thinks this is existential. So this comes back to the Democrats. How high are you going to escalate things? Are you going to take this national Tesla ownership database and turn it into an enemies list? Are you going to literally call for violence? And I think there's a lot of them who might actually do it. So that's one of the things we're trying to get at, I think, this year is unpacking, A, how angry are voters going to get at the level of fraud? Because what we uncovered, I think you and me could say just in the first two weeks of January, hasn't been socialized to the vast majority of people in this country.
Starting point is 01:42:17 And it's all kind of like gone away a little bit. People aren't focusing on the fact that, yeah, they're probably stealing between $500 billion and $1 trillion a year. So I want to see the voters come to terms with that and what that does with people's opinion. And I want to see how far the Democrats are going to push crazy because right now, like Reddit, it's a pretty sick place. And they have a choice. They could lick their wounds, try and find a new leadership and moderate and hopefully eventually earn voters on the merits. Or, you know, like somebody said on my Twitter feed, they're basically bleeding Kansas right now with Tesla dealerships. They're acting like the Confederates did before the Civil War. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:58 Hot damn. That's exactly right. I think that's the direction that the party's headed. We'll see. We'll see. Democrats always very on the losing end of civil wars. And who's going to pick the crops? Always a big question for Democrats.
