A reminder that the last time President Trump did this, it was rowdy. It was a raucous time with world leaders. Donald Trump, whenever he gets a chance to rip into the global press and global leaders, it is always exciting. And there are a lot of very interesting things that are happening right now dynamically,

Starting point is 00:03:46 Okay, ladies and gentlemen, again, we have the NATO meeting. All we have is we have a room full of press. Like this isn't a bunch of, this is the press and media of the world that are gathered here. There are like hundreds, if not thousands of reporters in this room right now is the camera,
Starting point is 00:04:04 the live camera angle that you're seeing of them just filming some of the doughy, infantilized, feminine, feline, estrogen pumping little activists in the room that President Trump will be taking on from that podium, from that dais in just a moment during a live press conference. Every person there is a reporter.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Ha ha ha, geez. Trump versus the world. It's gonna be awesome. Every time he gets a chance to do this, by the way, it is just a thing of beauty. He does this to the WEF where he just emasculates them, right? He just like, he goes up into the WEF right after getting inaugurated
Starting point is 00:04:43 for Donald Trump walks into the World Economic Forum and just rips their balls off. Ladies and gentlemen, this is going to be fun. These are all reporters and Donald Trump versus all of them. It's going to be wild. Things are happening at NATO that defy anything we've seen in our lifetime, all we've ever seen from NATO is of course a bunch of welfare queens, a bunch of elitist, egalitarian, European welfare parasites who have taken advantage of America and our might and our generosity in order to protect them. They spend nothing on the NATO partnership. Europeans spend zero dollars on their military or defense.
Starting point is 00:05:33 And then they expect big daddy America to come in and protect them anytime something goes wrong. You know, it's amazing. You can create these little socialist utopias. We're going to talk a little bit about socialism, communism today and exactly how exactly how does this, you know, how do these ideologies percolate? How do they, how do they bubble up? Like what's going on? I mean, like where the hell, you know, what happened in this country? Like where's our education system explaining what Marxism and socialism is? These should be banned ideologies in this country. We've seen what happens to them.
Starting point is 00:06:06 We've seen they should this these kind of ideologies should be the same. It should be treated the exact same way as like being a member of the KKK or a member of the Nazi party. It should be treated the same way. If we're going to talk about Europe, right, if we're going to talk about dead or decayed ideologies, this is the way it should be educated. That's how Marxism should be taught. But it's not. We're going to explain like why. But part of the reason why, and it's sitting here in this room today, is because the people who created socialism and Marxism there in Europe, the countries that adopt these systems of government
Starting point is 00:06:48 can do so off of the luxury of the NATO partnership. The NATO partnership effectively says, like we as Americans pay for the protection of the world and no other country has to pay a bloody effing cent. So they could spend lavishly on transgender ideology clinics. They can spend lavishly on socialized healthcare. You know, when you have all this extra cash that you should be spending on protecting yourself and defense, which is typically the top line for any nation throughout all history, that's what every nation has spent money on defending their borders. Because if you can't
Starting point is 00:07:22 defend your borders, you don't have a country that goes all the way back to, you know, of course, biblical times, Stone Age times, the Genesis, it goes back to that. You know, and quite frankly, it ties through directly into what happened in New York, which is you bring in infinity, third world foreigners and aliens, you're going to get what you bring in. Your elections are going to reflect the population. It's the great replacement theory in action. It's not a bug. It's the feature of the modern Democrat party. We didn't protect our borders and now look what's happening in this country. We're literally getting the population of New York. Do you. We're literally getting the population of New York. Do you know that 40% of the population of New York is foreign born? Not for, not for the second or third generation, foreign born. They weren't born in America. They pledged allegiance
Starting point is 00:08:19 to a different flag. What do you, what the hell are you think's going to happen? What do you, what the hell do you think is going to happen? The point is, is that NATO effectively and all of the wet dreams of the left exist because America has been a sucker and has been protecting these left wing European nations for all this time. And now president Trump is putting a stop to it. President Trump is literally called daddy moments ago inside of NATO. You want to talk about a change in tune? This is wild.
Starting point is 00:08:53 This is wild. Listen to this. President Trump called daddy by the secretary general of NATO. This is a this is going to be a marked difference. Get a load of this. I mean, we may do papers on it, Marco. Maybe we're going to do papers. I don't even know if you need them. They're not going to be fighting each difference. Get a load of this. I mean, we may do papers on it, Marco, maybe we're gonna do papers.
Starting point is 00:09:05 I don't even know if you need them. They're not gonna be fighting each other. They've had it. They've had a big fight, like two kids in a schoolyard. You know they fight like hell. You can't stop them. Let them fight for about two, three minutes, then it's easier to stop them.
Starting point is 00:09:18 And then daddy has to sometimes use strong language to do against them. Yeah, you have to use strong language. Every once in a while you have to use a certain word. I think they have to join the house. Okay. I'm, did I miss that? Did I miss it? This is daddy has to come in. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Oh, it's the thick accent. All right. Well, ladies and gentlemen, uh, you don't, you won't miss this one. The NATO secretary general straight up thanking Trump for the insane amount of generosity and ALX grabbed me the other, it looks like there's something happening, but Trump's not there yet. Grab me the other clip of him saying that NATO, I need this clip right now. NATO saying, the secretary general of NATO saying, we haven't been paying our fair share.
Starting point is 00:10:04 America has been footing the bill for all of Europe and that ends today. We're haven't been paying our fair share. America's been footing the bill for all of Europe and that ends today. We're all going to pay our fair share. This is like the Trump effect. Here we go. NATO secretary general thanking Trump. Go. It should be a massive achievement in making NATO fairer for decades. The United States sought to get Europe to truly step up. Now European allies and Canada will equalize their defence spending with the United States. So let me salute President Trump's long-standing leadership in calling for NATO to increase defence spending. Today, I am pleased to announce that NATO has already added an additional $1 trillion in defense spending over the past decade.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Mr. President, dear Donald, that is thanks to you pushing us. And tomorrow we will build on that foundation and add trillions more in defense spending because we need to do this. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Trump effect on NATO. Imagine if, you know, imagine in your household, if you just didn't, is that clip ready, Klein, thank you. Imagine in your household, the top line, most households, the most expensive thing is your mortgage. Most households, the most expensive thing is, I gotta pay my mortgage, whatever that happens to be. Mortgages can be, you know, extremely expensive
Starting point is 00:11:24 depending on the kind of, you of, the house that you have. So, and with rates right now, six and 7%, mortgages are obscene. So imagine if somebody just poof, your mortgage payment's gone. This is what America does to all these left-wing European countries. We take care of their most expensive payment
Starting point is 00:11:46 every single year, which would be the defense of their own borders. We get ripped off and it's ending now because of President Trump. Ladies and gentlemen, listen to this yesterday from the secretary general of NATO, announcing that all NATO countries will now finally pay their fair share.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Oh, ladies and gentlemen, hold on. President Trump is on live now. Here we go. Ladies and gentlemen, we are live. It's been a fairly long trip, but worth it. Tremendous things have been accomplished, as you probably noticed. Listened to a lot of wonderful speeches
Starting point is 00:12:16 from the heads of a lot of wonderful countries. But I wanna thank you for joining us at the conclusion of a highly productive NATO summit in the Netherlands. I want to thank them for the royal treatment they've given us. Couldn't have been nicer. And it's a beautiful country, really a beautiful country. Coming in, I saw the most beautiful trees.
Starting point is 00:12:41 In fact, I want to bring some back with me. I want to also thank I had I had breakfast this morning with the King and Queen and their incredible people. I called I said your central casting beautiful people, great people, big, beautiful heart. And I enjoyed that. And also, NATO Secretary General Mark Rota, who's been terrific. He's been a friend of mine. He used to be right here running this wonderful country. Now he's the NATO Secretary General.
Starting point is 00:13:15 He's doing a fantastic job. And the Prime Minister, we appreciate everything you've done. And as you know, last weekend, the United States successfully carried out a massive precision strike on Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities, and it was very, very successful. It was called obliteration. No other military on Earth could have done it. And now this incredible exercise of American strength has paved the way for peace with the historic
Starting point is 00:13:46 ceasefire agreement late Monday, and we call it the 12-day war. I spoke to a few people. I guess that just sounded like the right – the right name. It was a 12-day war. And we think it's over. I don't think they're going to be going back at each other. I don't think so. Not only have we dealt decisively with the critical threat of Iran's nuclear program,
Starting point is 00:14:08 which was what I wanted, I said Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I've said that for 15 years, long before I decided to do the political thing. But we've also reasserted the credibility of American deterrence, which is like no other. The people at NATO said this. Never been anything. You know, I rebuilt the entire military during my first term, and we have a great military. We have great generals. I got to know the good ones and the bad ones.
Starting point is 00:14:39 We kept the good ones. Over the past few days, I was honored to participate in the NATO Leaders Meeting and also had extremely good individual discussions with the King and the Queen, Secretary General Rutte, and the Prime Minister. Great discussions. Very knowledgeable people. Major focus of our conversations at the summit was the need for other NATO members to take up the burden of the defense of Europe. And that included the financial burden. As you know, it was 2 percent, and we got it up to 5 percent. And they said — a couple of them came up to me. One in particular said, sir, we've been trying to get it up to 3 percent for 20 years, and we haven't been able to
Starting point is 00:15:22 — and you got it up to 5 percent. So they're going to be, most of them, I guess almost all of them are going to be contributing now 5 percent, a number that people are surprised at, but you need it today. The United States accounts for two-thirds of all NATO defense spending. Since I began pushing for additional commitments in 2017, believe it or not, our allies have increased spending by $700 billion. I said to people, you don't have any money. And a lot of them weren't paying. And so I started the process, and I picked it up as soon as I got back, which is six
Starting point is 00:15:57 months ago. And following my election last November, almost all have accelerated plans to reach the 2 percent, 3 percent, 4 percent, and then ultimately, very quickly, 5 percent. And all of this is going to be done very quickly, almost immediately. You probably know this as well as I do. I'm sure they've been talking about it. It's really been a big focus. In a very historic milestone this week, the NATO allies committed to dramatically increase their defense spending to that 5 percent of GDP, something that no one really thought possible.
Starting point is 00:16:34 And they said, You did it, sir, you did it. Well, I don't know if I did it, but I think I did. This will be known as the Hague Defense Commitment, which is pretty good, pretty appropriate. When the allies reach this number, it will add more than $1 trillion a year. Think of that 1 trillion per year. So you've heard me talk about PatronMobil for a while now. You've probably already known that for years they've stood in the gap for every American
Starting point is 00:17:00 who believes that faith, family and freedom are worth fighting for. They are the real deal. But did you know that they've got cutting edge technology too?

To our common defense, and this is a monument really to victory, but it's a monumental win for the United States because we were carrying much more than our fair share.
Starting point is 00:18:10 It was quite unfair, actually. But this is a big win for Europe and for actually Western civilization. For years past, administrations failed to get most allies to contribute even the 2 percent. I remember when I came here, we had four countries that contribute even the 2 percent. I remember when I came here, we had four countries that were up to 2 percent. And I remember Poland was there. A couple of them were there. And but most of them were. We had 28 at the time, as you know, it's increased a little bit. And they've agreed now to more than double their budgets in all cases. And Europe stepping up to take more responsibility for its security will help prevent future
Starting point is 00:18:48 disasters like the horrible situation with Russia and Ukraine. And hopefully we're going to get that solved. Last week, they lost 7,000 soldiers, mostly soldiers, but they're also getting hit in Kiev. They're getting hit in some of the towns also. Uh, and that means life life is disappearing. Also in the cities and towns should have never happened would have never happened if I was president said it a thousand times and it never did happen. It's never even thought about. But it's vital that this additional money be spent on very serious military hardware,
Starting point is 00:19:27 not bureaucracy. And hopefully that hardware is going to be made in America because we have the best hardware in the world. You saw that, where 14 missiles were shot at us the other day. And they were very nice. They gave us warning. They said, we're going to shoot them. Is one o'clock okay?
Starting point is 00:19:44 They said,'re going to shoot him. Is one o'clock. Okay, they said it's fine and Everybody was emptied off the base so they couldn't get hurt except for the Gunners they call them the Gunners and At a 14 high-end missiles that were shot at the base in Qatar all 14 as you know We're shot down by our equipment Amazing stuff. Amazing that they can do. It's like shooting a bullet with a bullet.
Starting point is 00:20:10 It's the same thing, if you think about it. 14 out of 14, and they were — they weren't even that surprised. I said, Do you do that well often? They say, We pretty much do, sir. The Ukraine crisis has also highlighted the urgency of rebuilding our defense industrial base both in the United States and among the allied nations. We cannot afford to be dependent on foreign adversaries for critical minerals. And as you know, we made a deal with Ukraine to take a vast amount of the land they have
Starting point is 00:20:42 for minerals we needed. And once again, I want to thank all of the people they have for minerals we needed. And once again, I wanna thank all of the people in the Netherlands, incredible people, it's a great place. And all of the NATO allies for the tremendous summit that we just had, a letter just came in and the statement came in from the Atomic Energy Commission of Israel. And I just wondered, this is an official letter,
Starting point is 00:21:08 and they're very serious people, as you know. The devastating U.S. strike on Foro destroyed the site's critical infrastructure and rendered the enrichment facility totally inoperable. It was devastated. We assess that the American strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities has set back Iran's ability to develop nuclear weapons for many years to come. This achievement
Starting point is 00:21:33 can continue indefinitely if Iran does not get access to nuclear material, which it won't. It's so sad that that whole thing had to go. But I just want to thank our pilots. They were maligned and treated very bad, demeaned by fake new CNN, which is back there, believe it or not, wasting time, wasting it. Nobody's watching them. So they just wasted a lot of time, wasting my time. And the New York Times, they put out a story that, well, maybe they were hit, but it wasn't
Starting point is 00:22:05 bad. Well, it was so bad that they ended the war. It ended the war. Somebody said in a certain way that it was so devastating, actually. If you look at Hiroshima, if you look at Nagasaki, you know, that ended a war, too. This ended a war in a different way. But it was so devastating. Also, they have out of Dubai just came that Iran's foreign ministry spokesman. This is Iran's foreign
Starting point is 00:22:33 ministry says it's near its nuclear installations were very badly damaged by the American strike. So what bothered me about these reports with fake reports put out by the New York Times, failing. I call it the failing New York Times because it's doing terribly. Without me, it would be doing no business at all. And by fake news, CNN and MSDNC, all of these terrible people, you know, they have no credibility. You know, when I started, they were at 94 percent credibility. The media now it's at 16 percent.
Starting point is 00:23:09 And I'm very proud of it because I've exposed it for what it is. But when I when I saw them starting to question the caliber of the attack, was it bad? Well, it was really bad. It was deficit. They obliterated. Like you can't get into the tunnels. They just put that over. That just came out. They can't. There's nothing. There's no way you can even get down. The whole thing is collapsed in a disaster. And I think all of the nuclear stuff is down there because it's very hard to remove. And we did it very quickly when they heard we were coming. It was, you know,
Starting point is 00:23:43 you can't move it. Very hard, very dangerous very dangerous actually to move to. And they also knew we were coming. So I don't think too many people want to be down there knowing we're coming with the bunker busters, as we call them with the only ones that have with the best equipment, best nuclear equipment that we have the best equipment in the world. And by the way, we can't forget our submarine, which was out there submarines actually., which was out there — submarines, actually — but submarine was out there. We shot 30 rockets into an area, every single one of them.
Starting point is 00:24:14 I think it was almost 400 miles away, I think, Pete, right? Four hundred and long. It was in the ocean, long ways away. and long. It was in the ocean, long ways away. And we shot, we shot a total of 30. Every single one of them hit within nine inches from where it was supposed to be. It took it a lot. Cause we didn't do just Sporto,
Starting point is 00:24:36 we did two others in addition, which hadn't been completely destroyed. So we hit them with a submarine from hundreds of miles away. Amazing, just amazing equipment. Greatest submarines in the world. Nobody's even close. They're 20 years behind us when it comes to submarine technology.
Starting point is 00:24:58 So that's one. And the other was from the Atomic Energy Commission. And they have about three or four of them now coming in from Atomic Energy Commissions the Israeli nuclear power plant. The first one that we have was from the atomic energy commission. They have three or four of them coming in from atomic energy commissions from various places. The one that we have that just came out, we released it a little while ago, was from site has been demolished. And again, we had these brave patriots, these incredible flyers, these people that
Starting point is 00:25:32 can fly a plane better than anybody can fly a plane, going into very hostile territory, flying into the territory that has got more missiles and things pointed at it, but it was very stealth. They didn't get to see it. It was dark. That's the amazing thing about the shots. They hit the shots perfectly, and yet it was dead dark. There was no moon. There was no light. It was virtually moonless. It was very dark, and they hit.
Starting point is 00:25:58 The shots were hit perfectly, but when they get demeaned, and they were very upset about it because they knew how strong it would be. Back in Missouri. The pilots flew about 36 hours, two ways, far distance and in those incredible B-2s. And we then had the F-22s and we had the F-35s and we had other planes. And we had, I think, a total of 52 tankers. That means the big, the big tankers, because the refueling was a lot for all of the different planes that we sent. Incredible operation. And I have to say, General Raisen Gain was incredible. That's why he beat ISIS. And we beat ISIS in a matter of weeks. I was told it would take four to five years. We did it in a few weeks. And he was
Starting point is 00:26:41 great. That's why he's the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff right now because I had a very good experience where they knocked out ISIS in a period of literally a few weeks. Amazing. And it was supposed to take a few years, five years to be exact. So we had a great victory there, and we then came here, and I think we had a great victory here. But this is an ongoing project this is the safety of Europe the safety of the world and They've raised it from 2% to 5% something which nobody and you're talking about Over a trillion dollars a year
Starting point is 00:27:16 So we're talking about a lot of money from coming in from countries that we're not paying nearly enough to be effective So I have as you know Marco Rubio with me and Pete Hegs, Secretary of State and Secretary of War. Should we say Secretary of War? You know, it used to be called Secretary of War. Maybe for a couple of weeks we'll call it that because we feel like warriors. It used to be called Secretary of War. In fact, if you look at the old building next to the White House, you can see where of questions. We have a lot of questions.
Starting point is 00:27:46 We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions.
Starting point is 00:28:02 We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. We have a lot of questions. Uh Who's a nice person? Oh, you're not a nice person, but i'll let you ask one go ahead. What's he gonna ask? He is not nice at all During war in fact, you've looked at the old building Next to the white house. You can see where it used to be secretary of war then we became politically correct And they called it secretary of defense. I don't know. Maybe we'll have to start thinking about changing it But we feel that way. Do we have any questions, please?
Starting point is 00:28:30 Wow. That's a lot of questions. Uh, who's a nice person? Oh, you're not a nice person, but I'll let you ask one. Go ahead. What's he gonna ask? He is not nice at all. I know him well. Thank you, Mr. President.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Thank you for taking the time before flying home. You just said you believe the conflict between Israel and Iran is over. What makes you so confident it is? And what do you do if it isn't? Because I dealt with both, and they're both tired, exhausted. They fought very, very hard and very viciously, very violently. And they were both satisfied to go home and get out.
Starting point is 00:29:13 And can it start again? I guess someday it can. It could maybe start soon. I think a big telltale sign was when, as you know, Iran somewhat, by not much, violated the ceasefire. And Israel had the planes going out that morning, and there were a lot of them, 52 of them. And I said, you got to get them back. And they brought them back.
Starting point is 00:29:37 They didn't do anything. They brought them back. It was very good. I thought it was amazing, actually. They have fought a hell of a war. They fought very hard. I think the war ended, actually, when we hit the various nuclear sites with the planes.
Starting point is 00:29:52 And I just hope you people can give these pilots these are the best pilots in the world. They're the best shots in the world. They call them shots. That's what they are. And wait a minute. And I just hope you can give them the respect they deserve, because they came home to fake news and like, oh, gee, there was hardly any damage. The things
Starting point is 00:30:09 are decimated. So but I think no, I think they're very much finished. I think Israel is going to get back to doing what they do. And I think that Iran is going to get back. You know, Iran has a huge advantage of great oil and they can do things. I don't see them getting back involved in the nuclear business anymore. I think they've had it. They've been at it for 20 years. And I don't see that happening either. Now, if it does, we're always there.
Starting point is 00:30:35 It won't be me. It'll be somebody else. But we're there. We'll have to do something about it. Yes, please. Go ahead. Go ahead. Oh, fake news, CNN? Oh, yeah, yeah, here we go. When did you hear this question? You should really say how great our soldiers and our warriors are.
Starting point is 00:30:57 I think everyone appreciates our soldiers and our warriors. I do have two questions for you, Mr. President. You just cited Israeli intelligence on these attacks. Earlier, you said U.S. intelligence was inconclusive. Are you relying on Israeli intelligence for your assessment of the impact of the strikes? No, this is also Iran made the statement. And it's also, if you read the document
Starting point is 00:31:18 that was given that Pete can talk about, if you'd like, the document said it could be very severe damage, but they didn't take that. They said it could The document said it could be very severe damage, but they didn't take that. They said it could be limited or it could be very severe. They really didn't know other than to say it could be limited or it could be very, very severe. And you didn't choose to put that because it was very early after.
Starting point is 00:31:38 Since then, we've collected additional intelligence. We've also spoken to people who have seen the site and the site is obliterated. And we think everything nuclear is down there. They didn't take it out. Okay. Question? Please go ahead. Go ahead. Yeah. Blue dress. Thank you so much, Mr. President. Yesterday, you said China can now continue to purchase oil from Iran. Are you giving up on your maximum pressure campaign? Because there's sanctions right now on Iran.
Starting point is 00:32:11 No, look, they just had a war. The war was fought. They fought it bravely. I'm not giving up. They're in the oil business. I mean, I could stop it if I wanted. I could sell China the oil myself. I don't want to do that.
Starting point is 00:32:24 They're going to need money to put that country back into shape. We want to see that happen. Would it? No, if they're going to sell oil, they're going to sell oil. We're not taking over the oil. We could have, you know. I used to say, with Iraq, keep the oil. I could say it here, too.
Starting point is 00:32:37 We could have kept the oil. No, China is going to want to buy oil. They can buy it from us. They can buy it from other people, but you're gonna have to put that country back into shape. It desperately needs money. Yeah. Yeah, please.
Starting point is 00:32:55 Here we go. I'm picking the beauties today. Go ahead. Mr. President, Secretary General Ruta has described President Putin as an adversary, a threat, an enemy. Do you view him the same way? And in addition to that, you mentioned General Kaine, your chief of staff, the chairman of
Starting point is 00:33:17 the Joint Chiefs of Staff. General Kaine. Yes. He has said that Mr. Putin has territorial ambitions beyond Ukraine. Do you view that in the same way? It's possible. I mean, it's possible. I know one thing he'd like to settle.
Starting point is 00:33:31 He'd like to get out of this thing. It's a mess for him. He called the other day. He said, can I help you with Iran? I said, no, you can help me with Russia. Because you know, in the last few weeks, we took care of India and Pakistan, Kosovo, Serbia. I think on Friday we have coming in, the Congo is coming in and Rwanda is coming in. That was a vicious war that went on, a machete war, heads chopped off all over Africa.
Starting point is 00:34:01 They're coming in. We did two others. In addition to that, nobody's ever done anything like this. No, I consider him a person that's, I think, been misguided. I'm very surprised, actually. I thought we would have had that settled easier. I've settled four of them in the meantime. But he did call up, but he said, you know, he's close to Iran. He'd like to help us get a settlement. I said, no, no, you help me get a settlement with you, with Russia. And I think we're going to be doing that too. Yeah, please.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Go ahead, please. Thank you, Mr. President. You've made clear your position on what impact the strikes had. I wanted to ask you what is next with Iran. For instance, is there any indication from U.S. intelligence that Iran was able to move any material, including uranium? No, we're just the opposite.
Starting point is 00:34:52 We think we hit them so hard and so fast, they didn't get to move. And if you knew about that material, it's very hard and very dangerous to move. It's called — it's called — in many people, they call it dust. But it's very, very heavy. It's very, very hard to move. And they were way down, you know, they're 30 stories down. They're literally 30, 35 stories down underground. Oh yeah, we think we got, we think it's, it's covered with
Starting point is 00:35:19 granite, concrete and steel. Can I ask you, are you interested in restarting negotiations with Iran? And if so have they were so our people Marco could answer is but our people are Not I'm not the way I look at it They fought the wars done and you know, I could get a statement that they're not gonna go nuclear We're probably gonna ask for that, but they're not gonna be doing it. But they're not gonna be doing it anyway. They've had it. They've had it. Now, maybe someday in the future we'll want that.
Starting point is 00:35:52 But I've asked Marco, do you want to draw a... I just asked him the question as we're walking on the stage. You want to draw up a little agreement for them to sign? Because I think we can get them to sign it. I don't think it's necessary. Marco, do you want to talk about that, please? Well, Mr. President, I think you — President Trump has shown a willingness to meet
Starting point is 00:36:11 and talk to anybody in the world who's interested in peace. I don't know of any president that's been as willing as he has to meet with anyone and talk about peace. We'd love to have peaceful relations with any country in the world. And so, obviously, that'll depend on Iran's willingness not just to engage in peace, but to negotiate directly with the United States,
Starting point is 00:36:28 not through some third country or fourth country process. But I know of no president, probably in our modern history, that's sought peace more than President Trump has. It sounds like the door is open, but you're in no rush. Is that right? It sounds like the door is open. I'll tell you what, look, we're going to talk to them next week with Iran.
Starting point is 00:36:49 We may sign an agreement. I don't know. To me, I don't think it's that necessary. I mean, they had a war, they fought, now they're going back to their world. I don't care if I have an agreement or not. The only thing we'd be asking for is what we were asking for before about we want no nuclear, but we destroyed the nuclear.
Starting point is 00:37:06 In other words, it's destroyed. I said Iran will not have nuclear. Well, we blew it up. It's blown up. The kingdom come. And so I don't feel very strongly about it. If we got a document, it wouldn't be bad. We're going to meet with them, actually.
Starting point is 00:37:21 We're going to meet with them. Yeah. Yeah, go ahead, please. Yes. Mr. President, Netherlands TV, thank you for visiting our country. As they understood, I, of course, like to know how you slept last night at the House of the King. Oh, I slept beautifully.
Starting point is 00:37:37 But probably a more serious question. I think you just had a meeting with President Zelensky. Did you discuss any ceasefire in this Russo-Ukrainian meeting? No, no, I just wanted to know how he's doing. It was very nice, actually. You know, we had little rough times, but sometimes. He was — couldn't have been nicer. I think he'd like to see an end to this.
Starting point is 00:37:56 I do. I think what I took from the meeting — couldn't have been nicer, actually — but I took from the meeting that he'd like to see it end. I think it's a great time to end it. I'm going to speak to Vladimir Putin, see if we can get it ended. But look, these are brave people. They're fighting these wars all over the place. You know, last week, they had, I guess, close, I told you, close to 7,000 young soldiers.
Starting point is 00:38:24 Russian and Ukrainian soldiers were killed. Seven thousand in one week. It's crazy. It's crazy. So I'll be speaking to Putin. No, I had a good meeting with with Zelensky and I had a lot of good meetings. We had a lot of good meetings with a lot of people, a lot of great leaders.
Starting point is 00:38:39 But he's he's fighting a brave battle. It's a tough battle. Yeah. Go ahead, White dress. Thank you. Ida Halle-Kainen from Finland. You have played golf with President Alexandros Stubb. How do you see Finland as a NATO ally and partner? And how would you describe your relationship with our president? Well, he's a very good golfer. Okay. In fact, he was on his college golf team. He went to a good
Starting point is 00:39:11 college in the south, as you know, a very good college, and he was a good golfer. We had a good time. I think my relationship's great. I want to buy icebreakers. You know, you're very good at icebreakers. And I actually made them an offer. I didn't go to Congress. They'll try and impeach me for this. But there's an old — it's not old, it's fairly new, but it's used — icebreaker. And I offered them about one-third of what he asked for. But we're negotiating.
Starting point is 00:39:40 We need icebreakers in the U.S. And if we can get some inexpensively, I'd like to do that, actually. They'll fix it up, make it good. Also, we may buy some icebreakers in the U.S. And if we can get some inexpensively, I'd like to do that, actually. They'll fix it up, make it good. Also, we may buy some icebreakers. You know, you make — you're the king of icebreakers that particular country. They make them good. They make them really good. And they know what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:39:58 And so we're negotiating with them for about 15 different icebreakers. But one of them is available now. It's old, and it's — them is available now. It's old and it's, you know, old. It's like five, six years old. And we're trying to buy it. I'm trying to make a good deal. It's all I do my whole life. My whole life. That's all I do is make deals. Yeah, please. Go ahead, sir. Go ahead. Yeah. Question for a news hour. Dutch TV. First of all, on Article 5, on your way here, you spoke about the commitment of the U.S.
Starting point is 00:40:29 to Article 5, saying, I'll give you my definition once we're here. What is your definition, and may the U.S. commitment to Article 5 change in case some of the NATO members do not reach the threshold that was discussed today? My second question is following up on a colleague on Iran, what intel reports do say that everything over there was obliterated? Yeah, well, there are numerous of those reports and they're coming out fast and furious,
Starting point is 00:40:57 but the most respected ones we've already seen. And I will say that on a very confidential basis, they're looking at the reports, like numerous reports, and including people going to the site and checking the site. And they're going to be having — I guess you're going to be having, over the next couple of days, a full — you're going to encapsulate it. But no, the site was obliterated, just like I said it was, and just like the pilots should be given credit for.
Starting point is 00:41:25 As far as Article 5, look, when I came here, I came here because it was something I'm supposed to be doing, but I left here a little bit differently. I said I watched the heads of these countries get up, and the love and the passion that they showed for their country was unbelievable. I've never seen quite anything like it. They want to protect their country, and they need the United States. And without the United States, it's not going to be the same. And you can ask Mark or you can ask any of the people that were there. It was really moving to see it.
Starting point is 00:42:04 They love their country. They were so respectful of me because I'm the head of the people that were there. It was really moving to see it. They loved their country. They were so respectful of me because I'm the head of the United States. And I made, you know, the King of Saudi Arabia, when I was in the Middle East, so I was in Qatar for a different reason, not a reason to get shot at. We were in there for economic development reasons,
Starting point is 00:42:24 Qatar, UAE and Saudi Arabia all three leaders of those countries. And we took back five point one trillion dollars into the United States. All three leaders said you know you're presiding over the hottest country in the world. The United States right now is the hottest. Everybody wants to be there. Everybody. Everybody wants a piece of it. He said, a year ago, your country was dead. You had a deadhead running it. You had a country that was dead, and it was dead. You had people pouring through the borders.
Starting point is 00:42:52 You had inflation. You had everything. He said, you've made it in five months at that time. You've made it the hottest country. This is the hottest country in the world. The United States right now is the hottest country in the world. And when I was around that table, it was a nice group of people,
Starting point is 00:43:10 many of whom I knew from previous. When I saw the passion they had for the country, almost everyone, and you probably have the tapes, it was very public, but almost every one of them said, thank God for the United States. Without the United States, we couldn't — they couldn't really have NATO. It wouldn't work. It wouldn't work. It will in the future, because now they're paying much more money. But it wouldn't work.
Starting point is 00:43:34 It was great. And I left here differently. I left here saying that these people really love their countries. It's not a ripoff. And we're here to help them protect their country. Okay, we'll do one or two more. Thank you, Mr. President. A question on Spain.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Are you satisfied with today's... Oh, I think Spain's terrible what they've done. No, I do. They're the only country that won't pay the full up. They want to stay at 2 percent. I think it's terrible. And, you know, they're doing very well. The economy is very well. And that economy could be blown right out of the water with something bad happening. You know, Spain is the only country that are
Starting point is 00:44:11 you from Spain? Good. Congratulations. You're the only country that is not paying. I don't know what the problem is. I think it's too bad. So we'll make it up. You know what we're going to do when negotiating with Spain on a trade deal. We're going to make them pay twice as much. And I'm actually serious about that. We're going to make Spain. I like Spain. I have so many people from Spain that it's a great place and they're great people. But Spain is is the only country out of all of the countries that refuses to pay. And, you know, so they want a little bit of a free ride, but they'll have to pay it back to us on trade because I'm not going to let that happen.
Starting point is 00:44:52 It's unfair. It's unfair to them. All right, sir, please. Go ahead, right in the back. Yeah, you tall one. The tall man. Mr. President, Johannes Paterer from Austrian National Television. How are you? You once said that you would end the Ukraine war in 24 hours.
Starting point is 00:45:10 You later said you said that sort of time, sort of cast a clean. Of course it was sarcastic. But you've now been in office for five months and five days. Why have you not been able to end the Ukraine war? Because it's more difficult than people would have any idea. Vladimir Putin has been more difficult. Frankly, I had some problems with Zelensky. You may have read about him.
Starting point is 00:45:33 And it's been more difficult than other wars. I mean, look, we just ended a war in 12 days that was simmering for 30 years, frankly. We ended Rwanda and the Congo. It's coming to sign the documents. We've Rwanda and the Congo. It's coming to sign the documents. We've already signed basic documents, but they're coming, I think, to the White House on Friday. We ended Serbia.
Starting point is 00:45:54 Was going to go at it. But maybe the most important of all, India and Pakistan. And that wasn't whether or not they may someday have nukes, like we're talking about in the Middle East, like we're talking about with Israel and Iran. This is the half nuclear weapons. I ended that with a series of phone calls on trade. I said, look, if you're going to go fighting each other, it's going to — it was getting very bad.
Starting point is 00:46:22 You know how bad that last attack was. It was really bad. If you're going to go fighting each other, we're not doing any trade deal. No, no, no, you have to do a trade deal. They said, we're not doing any trade deal. And in fact, I had the general who was very impressive. The general from Pakistan was in my office last week. You know, Prime Minister Modi is a great friend of mine. He's a great gentleman. He's a great man. And I got them to reason. I said, we're not doing a trade deal if you're going to fight. And if you're going to fight each other, we're
Starting point is 00:46:53 not doing a trade deal. And you know what? He said, no, I want to do the trade deal. We stopped the nuclear war. Go ahead. Go ahead, Jeff. Here's another beauty, Jeff. He's a beauty, all right. Go ahead. Mr. President, a follow-up on Ukraine. Will the United States contribute any more money to Ukraine's defense this year, to the $5 billion that allies are giving? And one question, you had another meeting with the Dutch opposition leader, Mr. Wilders.
Starting point is 00:47:21 Can you tell us about that meeting? And are you upset about his anti-Muslim stance? I'm not upset about it. It's just his view. He's unhappy with the way things are going in this country, in various countries. He was an opposition leader. And I was asked to meet with the opposition leader by the people that are running. I think they have some deal where if you have a meeting, you're supposed to meet with an opposition leader. I said, that's strange.
Starting point is 00:47:45 We don't do that. But I met with the — I didn't know him. He seemed like a very nice guy, but he's in opposition to the current people, and that was set up by the current people. So I assume, when I met with the prime minister, you're supposed to meet with the opposition. We'll have to try that sometime in our country. Let's not do it. But he was — he was — I thought he was very good. We will have to try that sometime in our country. Let's not do it.
Starting point is 00:48:05 But he was — he was — I thought he was very good. As far as money going, we will see what happens. There is a lot of spirit. Look, Vladimir Putin really has to end that war. People are dying at levels that people haven't seen before for a long time. Go ahead. Go ahead. White shirt.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Oh, she is all excited. before for a long time. Go ahead. Go ahead. White shirt. Oh, she's all excited. So, BBC News, Ukrainian. Where are you from? I'm from Ukraine. So my question to you is whether or not the US is ready to sell anti-air missile systems
Starting point is 00:48:44 patriot to Ukraine. We know that Russia has been pounding Ukraine really heavily right now. Are you living yourself now in Ukraine? My husband is there. Wow. I can see you're very — you know, it's amazing. And me with the kids. I'm in Warsaw, actually, because he wanted me to be —
Starting point is 00:49:01 Is your husband a soldier now? He is. He's there now? Yeah. Wow. That's rough stuff, right? That's tough. And you're living here?
Starting point is 00:49:10 In Warsaw. And you're a reporter? I am. Good. So let me just tell you, they do want to have the anti-missile missiles, OK, as they call them, the Patriots. And we're going to see if we can make some available. You know, they're very hard to get.
Starting point is 00:49:26 We need them, too. We were supplying them to Israel, and they're very effective, 100 percent effective. Hard to believe how effective. And they do want that more than any other thing, as you probably know. That's a very good question. And I wish you a lot of luck.
Starting point is 00:49:39 I mean, I can see it's very upsetting to you. So, say hello to your husband. Okay? Thank you. Go ahead. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. You were criticizing — Where are you from? Bloomberg News. Oh, Bloomberg. That's wonderful.
Starting point is 00:50:01 You were criticizing the Federal Reserve Chair before coming to this summit. Yeah, I think he's terrible. I was wondering if you've begun interviewing different candidates for the Fed pick. Yeah, I know within three or four people who are all going to pick. I mean, he goes out pretty soon, fortunately,
Starting point is 00:50:17 because I think he's terrible. We have no inflation. We have a tremendous economy. Hundreds of billions of dollars of tariff money is pouring in. Factories are being built because they don't want to pay the tariff, so they're building them all over the country. I think we're close to $15 trillion. I told you, $5.1 trillion from the Middle East alone,
Starting point is 00:50:36 but of investment money coming in. There's never been anything like that in the history of our country. But we have no inflation. And we have borrowing because because Biden, stupidly, they did short-term debt. So we have borrowing coming up. And, you know, we'll go 10 years, maybe longer, maybe shorter, but we'll go a long period of time
Starting point is 00:50:55 when we do the debt. And because of him, because of this guy, we will have to pay for years. Hey, man, we're live streamers. We are live multiple hours per day, sometimes multiple times a day, oftentimes on the weekend. They grind never stops in the Trump era. It is a high stress, high pressure job.

Starting point is 00:53:18 Here's, we'll be paying for him. And I said to him, listen, there's no inflation. He says, but maybe there'll be some. That's true. I said, if there is some, what you do is raise the rate. I'm okay with that. You raise the rate in two years from now or a year from now. But because the rate's high, we have to pay more for debt.
Starting point is 00:53:36 It's pretty equal. In other words, if it's 4 percent, it's 4 percent. If you drop it a point, you'll pay 3 percent. So it's fairly equal. Not necessarily, but fairly equal. So we're going to end up paying maybe two points or three points more. Three points would be about $900 billion a year because of this very average mentally person. He's an average mentally person. I'd say low in terms of what he does. Low. Low IQ for what he does, okay? Right. So, instead of paying $900 billion.
Starting point is 00:54:14 We don't want to pay $900 billion just because he doesn't want to lower the rate. I said, if there's inflation in two years or three years or one year from now, you raise the rate and you take care of the inflation among other things but he's Probably a very political guy. I guess I don't know. I think he's a very stupid person actually. All right one more. Let's go How about you go ahead?
Starting point is 00:54:38 She looks so happy and everything thank you. I'm saying to I'm on a book from La Vanguardia I wanted to know if you're aware from Spain. I wanted to know if you're where from Spain I wanted to know if you want to that's the Spain corner right there shouldn't have said that. That's okay I do like Spain by the way, I think it's unfair that they're not paying but go ahead Are you going to negotiate directly with Spain about I'm gonna negotiate directly with Spain. I'm gonna do it myself They're gonna pay they'll pay more money this way I'm going to do it myself. They're going to pay. They'll pay more money this way.
Starting point is 00:55:05 You should tell them to go back and pay. You're a reporter? You tell them to go back, they ought to join all of those countries that are paying 5 percent. Spain's going to be just about the only one that's not. They were the most hostile toward doing it. It just doesn't make sense to me. Okay. All right, Kelly, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Here we go. Here's another one. We got them all today. Okay. So, Mr. President, you talked about expecting some on-the-ground assessments at Fordow and other sites. Is that really in U.S.? It's been obliterated, Kelly. It's been obliterated. What is your message then, sir,
Starting point is 00:55:46 to the intelligence community when they present reports? You're not disputing the DIA report. They presented a report that wasn't finished. We're talking about something that took place three days ago. I understand that. The report was done three days ago. Wait a minute. Yes. They didn't see it. All they can do is take a guess. Now, if you take a look at the pictures, if you take a look how it's all blackened, do you know the fire in Brimstone is all underground because it's granite and it's all underground? You don't show it. But even there, with all of that being said, the whole area for 75 yards around the hole
Starting point is 00:56:21 where it hit is black with fire. The group that's run by this gentleman, in fact, you may want to talk about it for a second because we're going to issue a report. And I think it's not even a very exciting report at this point. It's been obliterated, totally obliterated. And they did a report, but it was like, if you look at the dates, it's just a few days after it happened. So they didn't see it. They said it may be very severe.
Starting point is 00:56:50 Go ahead. Do you have a message for the intelligence community, though, in terms of unvarnished information getting to you? That it's not? I don't really have a message. I would say issue the report when you know what happened. I wouldn't say that it could be severe or maybe not. They use the word severe. It could be severe or maybe it's not. So people like you picked
Starting point is 00:57:10 up and said, oh, it's not severe. No, the report was not a complete report. Yeah, the message was probably wait till you know the answer before you answer. Did you not have a public component to your Zelensky meeting for a tactical reason with President Putin? Let him answer this. Hello, Mr. Secretary. I have a public component to your Zelensky meeting for a tactical reason with President Putin. Let him answer this one. Hello, Mr. Secretary. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:29 There's a reason the president calls out fake news for what it is. These pilots, these refuelers, these fighters, these air defenders, the skill and the courage it took to go into enemy territory, flying 36 hours on behalf of the American people in the world to take out a nuclear program is beyond what anyone in this audience can fathom. And then the instinct, the instinct of CNN, the instinct of the New York Times is to try to find a way to spin it for their own political reasons to try to hurt President
Starting point is 00:58:02 Trump or our country. They don't care what the troops think. They don't care what the world thinks. They want to spin it to try to make him look bad based on a leak. Of course, we've all seen plenty of leakers. And what do leakers do? They have agendas. And what do they do? Do they share the whole information or just the part that they want to introduce?
Starting point is 00:58:20 And when they introduce that preliminary, a preliminary report that's deemed to be a low assessment, you know what a low assessment means? Low confidence in the data in that report. And why is there low confidence? Because all of the evidence of what was just bombed by 12, 30,000 pound bombs is buried under a mountain, devastated and obliterated. So if you wanna make an assessment
Starting point is 00:58:45 of what happened at Fordow, you better get a big shovel and go really deep because Iran's nuclear program is obliterated. And somebody, somewhere is trying to leak something to say, oh, with low confidence, we think maybe it's moderate. Those that dropped the bombs precisely in the right place know exactly what happened when that exploded. And you know who else knows? Iran. That's why they
Starting point is 00:59:10 came to the table right away, because their nuclear capabilities have been set back beyond what they thought were possible because of the courage of a commander-in-chief who led our troops, despite what the fake news wants to say. But you're not disputing the report said what it said, even though it was initial. The report said what it said, and it was fine. It was severe, they think, but they had no idea. They shouldn't have issued a report until they did,
Starting point is 00:59:35 but we've gotten the information. I think Pete said it better than you can say it. And, you know, you should be proud. You, especially you, should be proud of those pilots and you shouldn't be trying to demean them. Those pilots flew at great risk. Big chance that they'd never come back home and see their husbands or their wives. Let me just tell you, you and NBC, fake news, which is one of the worst, and CNN, New York Times, they're all bad. They're sick. There's something wrong with them. But you know what?
Starting point is 01:00:05 You should be praising those people, instead of trying to find some. By getting me, by trying to go and get me, you're hurting those people. They were devastated. You know, I got a call from Missouri, great state, that I won three times by a lot. And I got a call that the pilots and the people on the
Starting point is 01:00:22 plane were devastated because they were trying to minimize the attack. And they all said it was hit. But, oh, but we don't think it was really maybe hit that badly. And they were devastated. They put their lives on the line. And then they have — and I'm not referring to you, but real scum, real scum come out and write reports that are as negative as they could possibly be. It should be the opposite.
Starting point is 01:00:46 You should make them heroes and heroines. You should make them really people that they were so devastated when they heard this news. And you know what they said? One of them, I spoke to one of them, said, sir, we hit the site. It was perfect. It was dead on because they don't understand fake news because they have a normal life except they have to fly very big, very fast planes. But it's a shame. You should be making them heroes. All right. In the back. Go ahead. Back, white. Yeah. White jacket.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Yeah. Go ahead, give my mic. Hello. Deborah Haynes from Sky News. Mark Ritter, the NATO chief, who is your friend, he called you daddy earlier. Do you regard your NATO allies as kind of children? No, he likes me. I think he likes me. If he doesn't, I'll let you know.
Starting point is 01:01:44 I'll come back and I'll hit him hard, okay? He did. He did it very affectionately. Daddy, you're my daddy. Do you regard your NATO allies though as kind of like children and they're obviously listening to you and they're spending more and you're obviously appreciative of that. But do you hope that actually they're going to be able to defend themselves, defend Europe on their own. Without... I think they need help a little bit at the beginning, and I think they'll be able to. And I think they're going to remember this day. And this was a big day for NATO.
Starting point is 01:02:13 This was a very big day. They took it. One of the gentlemen said, you know what? We've been trying to raise money for, raise the rate for 30 years, he said, 20 years, from almost the beginning. And he's been there for a long time. He said, until you came along, it never happened. What you did is amazing.
Starting point is 01:02:29 It's been sort of an amazing day for a lot of reasons, but also for that. Yeah, go ahead. Do you think they can do it without you though, in the future? Can they do it without you? Well, ask Mark. I mean, you have to ask Mark, okay?
Starting point is 01:02:40 So we're heading back. We're heading back. I want to thank these two gentlemen behind me. They're incredible people, both of them. They really have done a fantastic job. And Suzy is in the front, and she's done great. And Monica, thank you very much. It was quite an exciting time.
Starting point is 01:02:58 And we're going to be heading back. We'll be back sooner. We'll see you in Washington, D.C. Remember this, we have the hottest country anywhere in the world. Thank you very much everybody. Thank you. We have the hottest country in the world. President Trump wrapping up at the NATO summit. The guy's pure co it's just pure comedy. the NATO summit, the guy's pure co it's just pure comedy. Every single question is hysterical.
Starting point is 01:03:33 Donald Trump roasting people to their faces, like jumping and bouncing between these left-wing reporters, making them look like fools, very strong performance and calling out the leakers within his administration, calling them treasonous. Donald Trump cracking jokes about being daddy to NATO. My all-time favorite. You got to understand President Trump has changed the dynamic forever. These countries are freeloaders. They're freeloader, left-wing, socialist egalitarian experiments that can only subsist when America pays their top line bill, their top line home expense.
Starting point is 01:04:13 We pay the mortgage for all of Europe and Trump is changing that forever. And they're thanking them for it. It's wild. The sheer power of this one man and this movement. And it's an American first movement. It's changing the world forever. Democrats are obviously have their own response to it.
Starting point is 01:04:31 You can see what's happening in New York city today. That is the Democrat response to it. The Democrat response to what President Trump is doing is infinity immigration from third world health holes in order to change our population forever. It's called the great replacement. President Trump issuing a very, very different view on the planet, which is an America first view and a view that says we will be strong.
Starting point is 01:04:56 We will protect our own people and we will win. Ladies and gentlemen, Trump has been winning. I just want to wrap up this block very quickly. Click that we were just about to play before President Trump went live is the NATO secretary general bowing his head at a round table with Trump and saying, you win, we lose.
Starting point is 01:05:16 Every single country here will now pay our fair share. We will pay our obligations. We will no longer let America shoulder us and apologizing to him. You ever heard anything like this? Elitist Europeans on their knees, apologizing to American strength for taking advantage of us. Do you understand what President Trump has done for our nation?
Starting point is 01:05:40 The sheer amount of respect that is now commanded around the world. If you need further evidence, here you go. For too long, one ally, the United States, carried too much of the burden of that commitment. Yes. And that changes today. Yes. President Trump, dear Donald, you made this change possible. Your leadership on this has already produced one trillion dollars in extra spending from
Starting point is 01:06:07 European allies since 2016. And the decisions today will produce trillions more for our common defense to make a stronger and fairer by equalizing spending between America and America's allies. Incredible. The seat of honor. They're thanking Trump for making them pay more. I just, it's just wild. Ladies and gentlemen, God has a plan.
Starting point is 01:06:36 It's a beautiful thing. President Trump only got testy one time in that back and forth raconteur with the world's media. You heard a Ukrainian reporter there, you heard Spanish reporters, Trump roasting Spain to their face. It was pure comedy. But only one time did Trump get pissed and then brought in Pete Hegseth, who went on a scorched earth tirade against leakers in the administration.
Starting point is 01:07:04 Trump's Middle East envoy calls for investigation into treasonous Iran bombing Intel leak. Here's what's happened. It's pretty simple According to Intel experts all like dropping a hundred thousand hundred thirty thousand I don't know how many bombs they dropped. There's sixteen thirty thousand pound bomb On a mountainside forever changing the face of the mountain itself. That didn't harm the delicate, fragile nuclear program hidden within.
Starting point is 01:07:34 That's what the intel leakers are saying. Of course, there's the same deep state that leaked that Donald Trump was a Russian asset and that J6 was a violent insurrection and that Gretchen Whitmer was about to be kidnapped by MAGA. It's the same people. Oh yeah, also these are the same people that said COVID just came from zoonotic transmission.
Starting point is 01:07:58 Okay, don't worry about it. Just double mask and quit your job. These people cannot be trusted, but this is sort of the last dying, screaming edifice of the same people that, remember they listened in on Trump's phone call and got him impeached. These are the same people.
Starting point is 01:08:18 Trump was impeached for a phone call or is asking about the Biden crime family in Ukraine. What a prescient question. The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that these leakers still exist. And now instead of the Trump administration going through the torturous path of special councils and impeachment investigations and the circus, the media circus of all this, they are shutting it down. They're saying you're a criminal, we're going to hunt you down, we're going to find you, your treasonous, we'll put you in Guantanamo Bay.
Starting point is 01:08:51 Okay? Here's just a series, ladies and gentlemen, of the administration refusing to take this any longer from the deep state. Steve, this leaked intel assessment, it's an early look at what was actually accomplished on the ground, and I underline early, but it was leaked. Somebody decided to leak this from the DIA. And it's being used in the media, and it's all over today, that, aha, Trump said it was obliterated, but it's not obliterated. It's set back months, but not—it's not over from Iran's nuclear program's perspective.
Starting point is 01:09:33 Your reaction to that, and I assume you know what we're talking about with this leaked intel report. Well, it goes without saying that leaking that type of information, whatever the information, whatever side it comes out on is outrageous. It's it's treasonous. So it ought to be investigated and whoever did it, whoever is responsible for it should have been held, should be held accountable. It could hurt lives in the future.
Starting point is 01:10:01 This leaking is a completely unacceptable thing. It's unacceptable, it's treasonous, but then we can really get started. Marco Rubio saying these are professional backstabbers. Go. First of all, on the stuff about the intelligence, this is what a leaker is telling you the intelligence says. That's the game these people play. They read it and then they go out and characterize it the way they want to characterize it. And they're leakers. This is the game they play. So that's number one. Number two, here's a fact. The conversion facility, which you can't do with nuclear weapons without a conversion facility, we can't even find where it is, where it used to be on the map.
Starting point is 01:10:37 You can't even find where it used to be because the whole thing is just blackened out. It's gone. It's wiped out. It's wiped out. Then we drop 12 of the strongest bombs on the planet right down the hole in two places. Everything underneath that mountain is in bad shape. And I refer you to the statement of the IAEA, Mr. Grossi. You know what he said? He said there was Iran the way it looked the day before the attack and what their nuclear program looks like now. Two very different things. They are way behind where they were just seven days ago. Now anything in the world can be rebuilt, but now we know where it is, and if they try to rebuild it,
Starting point is 01:11:08 we'll have options there as well. But all this leaker stuff, these leakers are professional stabbers. That's what they are. They go out and they read this stuff and then they tell you what it says against the law, but they characterize it for you in a way that's absolutely false. There's no way Iran comes to the table. Somehow nothing had happened. This was complete and total obliteration. They're in bad shape. They are way behind today compared to where they were just seven days ago because of what the president did.
Starting point is 01:11:36 So the Trump administration, I just, I love it. I, you know, you remember the first, yes, like you see one cockroach, right? You see one cockroach. If you don't eliminate them ruthlessly and slaughter them, then you're just going to see a lot more cockroaches and you'll see them in your bed and you'll see them everywhere. You got to get rid of it. This is what happened in the first Trump administration. One leak led to 50 leaks led to 500,000 leaks led to Trump's impeachment and special counsel. So ruthlessly hunt it down and then prosecute. This has been happening by the way Tulsi Gabbard is in the middle of a number of prosecutions but ladies and gentlemen a lot of those prosecutions
Starting point is 01:12:18 would probably roll through the Senate obviously the Senate and their judiciary committees would have the capacity to look into these agencies through oversight. This is where a lot of this starts and stops. Josh Hawley, who himself has a number of whistleblowers that he's working with constantly, was on last night and went scorched earth against the leakers. This is exactly how you fight and win battles go president of the United States either party Have to call Crockett for permission to drop eight bombs on our enemy No, they don't whoever the president is the president has the authority to order strikes has the authority to do exactly what Donald Trump
Starting point is 01:13:02 Did and by the way, what are they going to impeach him for, Jesse, peace in the Middle East? Right. I mean, is that how the impeachment articles are going to read, that the guy brought peace to 1,000 year conflict in record time, and therefore we want him out of office? Sounds more to me like a citation for a Nobel Peace
Starting point is 01:13:17 Prize. I mean, this is just ridiculous. So you're seeing CNN say that the bombs didn't really blow up the nuclear facility and you know, didn't really set them back at all. Does that sound like common sense? No, it doesn't sound like common sense. It sounds like CNN trying to be relevant.
Starting point is 01:13:34 It also sounds frankly like maybe some disgruntled intelligence officials trying to stay relevant. I mean, Donald Trump just went in, solved the problem. He's got to ceasefire. He's bringing peace. All of a sudden these folks are worried they're going to be out of a job. They need something to say. So they're trying to stir up controversy. All right. Ladies and gentlemen, I love to see this energy. President Trump on top of the world right now, dictating policy the way that America should through strength and not weakness and capitulation. Oh, it is a beautiful thing to see. We have a member of the Senate and also soon to be governor of a beautiful red state who
Starting point is 01:14:17 will be joining us momentarily, ladies and gentlemen. But first, I want to talk quickly about strength. The strength to do this program every single day comes from us having a healthy ticker. I do have extremely high blood pressure and in this news environment, that is not fun. It doesn't help the fact that I have high blood pressure when, I don't know, you know, things are popping off around the world. We're doing lives on Saturday night after America bombs Iran and so on and so forth. The communists are getting elected mayor of New York City. 120 Life helps

Starting point is 01:16:02 Okay, ladies and gentlemen, very quickly, because we need to talk about this with the Senator. This is New York City, Googling what is socialism after voting for a communist, foreign born, Ugandan Muslim who wants to defund the police and is a trans activist, and who also wants to socialize policing and healthcare and grocery stores and housing in New York. This individual won and then
Starting point is 01:16:37 promised to defy ICE. I wonder how that's going to work out for him. We have this clip, I know. Let's play it, please. This is the Democrat victor, not by a little, by a landslide in New York. Zohran Mamdani is his name. He's literally just became an American citizen and now he's about to become mayor of New York. What's he going to do to the Trump administration? Let's listen. We have won because New Yorkers have stood up for a city they can afford. A city where they can do more than just struggle. One where those who toil in the night can enjoy the fruits of their labor in the day.
Starting point is 01:17:29 Where hard work is repaid with a stable life. Where eight hours on the factory floor or behind the wheel of a cab is enough to pay the mortgage. It is enough to keep the lights on. It is enough to send your kid to school. Where rent stabilized apartments are actually stabilized. Where buses are fast and free. Where childcare doesn't cost more than CUNY.
Starting point is 01:18:05 And where public safety keeps us truly safe. And it's where the mayor will use their power to reject Donald Trump's fascism. To stop mass ICE agents from deporting our neighbors. And to govern our city as a model for the Democratic Party. So we're going to stop ICE agents from deporting people. Very interesting thing because he's talking about all of this like low income working class Marxist pablum. Yet it is literally the richest areas of New York
Starting point is 01:18:51 that voted for this guy, as suicidal. You can see here, Wall Street voted for him, right there. That's Wall Street. The blue, by the way, is Cuomo. The yellow is the guy who just became an American citizen like last week. New York City certainly did forget, ladies and gentlemen, after September 11th,
Starting point is 01:19:15 here we are now. And Stephen Miller's take on the new Democrat nominee for the mayor of America's largest city. The commentary about the New York city Democrats nominating an anarchist socialist for mayor omits one point. How unchecked migration fundamentally remade New York city's electorate. Democrats change politics by changing voters. That's how you turn a city that defined U S dominance into what it is now. And what is it now?
Starting point is 01:19:43 Very unique here. Some interesting data from Matt Walsh. 40% of New York City's population is foreign born, not just second or third generation immigrants, foreign born, meaning pledged allegiance to a different nation before coming here and maybe are perhaps dual citizens, which of course should be illegal.
Starting point is 01:20:01 In our citizenship oath, it says that we reject any other nation. I don't know why this is even remotely controversial. We need to get rid of dual citizenship. If you're rejecting other nations in the oath to become an American, then how are you then allowed to hold other nations within your citizenship status?
Starting point is 01:20:24 other nations within your citizenship status. Prima facie, that's antithetical, right? Almost half of the city wasn't born in this country. New York city isn't an American city anymore by any reasonable definition of the term. It's a tragedy and a disgrace. Stephen Miller also on this point. To understand the pace and scope of migration in America in the past few years, one-third of New York City is a foreign-born, two-thirds of New York City children live in
Starting point is 01:20:51 foreign-born households. So if you wonder how the city went from Rudy Giuliani leading it, and sort of like that classic archetype Italian, tough on crime, central casting New Yorker to this, it's pretty simple. New York City is the clearest warning yet of what happens when a society fails to control migration. It's made really clear, ladies and gentlemen, right here, this is effectively my take on it, because 50 years ago,
Starting point is 01:21:23 the young bright leader of the Democrat party was a World War II veteran war hero. He was a anti-communist crusader. He was a devoted Catholic and father, family man. His name's John F. Kennedy and he brought America into the space age. How the hell did the Democrat party descend so quickly into madness? In fact, like if you were looking for a polar opposite of everything that JFK represented in life, then here it is. It's very simple. You change the Democrat voting base by importing masses from foreign third world nations and appealing to their foreign ideologies and extremist ideologies.
Starting point is 01:22:14 That's it. This is precisely what's happened. It's a rabid pursuit of power operation. And it's also an operation that has effectively killed what your grandparents or parents knew of the Democrat Party. Now, ladies and gentlemen, a New York City will be left to suffer.
Starting point is 01:22:33 And I guess we'll see what happens next. Eric Adams is gonna be running as an independent. I suppose we'll see if they can try and pull off a miracle. The betting markets say that New York City will be led by a radical Muslim immigrant from Uganda, who's a communist, avowed Marxist, defund the police, trans activist. So good luck, Democrats,
Starting point is 01:22:59 in selling that to the rest of America. It's happening all around the country. Somebody who's here to stop it, especially in the great state of Alabama, is the candidate for the next governor of Alabama. Current Senator Tommy Tuberfil joins the show. Senator, every single time I think that the Democrat party can't just sort of, uh, you know, sit back and let there be infighting or something happened, you know, like, like every time there's, there's a victory potentially for them.
Starting point is 01:23:34 They like, they snatch it out of the jaws and hand themselves a big fat L and this is what they've done. I think it's indefensible. This mayoral candidate in New York city, but he's the new bright, young, fresh face of the party. Many of my favorite hero of my, my era, John Wayne's favorite saying was life's tough. It's a hell of a lot tougher when you're stupid. Well, they just match that. Uh, I can't believe it. I cannot believe that the New Yorkers,
Starting point is 01:24:01 the people in New York that love, supposedly love this country voted for this, this Marxist, uh, communist it's, it's a shame. It really is. And again, our great cities of LA and New York, they have to be the spotlight for our country, but they're gone. And like you said, it's going to be, it's going to be unbelievable. What's going to happen to both of those cities.
Starting point is 01:24:25 If they continue this same leadership is so that they don't know anything about discipline, they don't need to know anything about work ethic. They don't know, know anything about teamwork, any of those things that help make a society great, they could care less. Does seem like if you have infinity criminal migration into a city and you have no voter ID, and then you have permanent vote by into a city and you have no voter ID and then you have permanent vote by mail, you're just guaranteeing this outcome. Oh yeah. You know,
Starting point is 01:24:51 they all voted four or five times. Uh, this is the, uh, city of Chuck Schumer and AOC. Uh, they gotta be proud of it today. Uh, it is, uh, and they're going to get labeled for it and they should, all the Democrats should get labeled for this. It's a disaster. It really isn't. And this is exactly what happened to Europe. Europe is gone.
Starting point is 01:25:11 Mass migration overrun by Muslims and given leadership to the mayors of all these European cities, uh, you know, it's coming from the Muslim faith. And again, there's a lot of good Muslim, but not this radical Islamic terrorism plot that they're pushing towards globalism in United States of America. I mean, it's, it's coming. We all know it and we better stop. I mean, we've seen it in LA, LA is led by a Marxist. People don't understand the history of Karen Bass. Karen Bass is a committed communist. She traveled to Cuba a bunch of times. She was part of a little Cuban brigade to push Marxism. And now she's in charge of America's second first and second largest cities are presumably going to be run by communist Senator.
Starting point is 01:25:58 It's like a very alarming. Yeah, we better wake up. And if alarm bells don't go off after this, then we're in trouble as a country. Now, it's not going to happen in the South, obviously. It's going to happen in the blue states first. And they'll tear down their cities and they'll let all this mass migration come in. They won't have any laws or rules. There won't be any police. It'll turn into a complete disaster. But that's what they won't. What if the dollar is no longer the world's reserve currency? According to former IMF chief economist, Kenneth Rogoff, the future may be coming faster than you think.
Starting point is 01:26:35 And it's not going to be good for us.

Well, you're running for one of the, for governor of one of the reddest states in the country. And I want to get to that really quickly. But since you brought it up, we have a very interesting thing that our producer pulled up here, which is to become an American citizen in the citizenship test right here. Yeah, thank you. You have to declare whether for your naturalization application.
Starting point is 01:27:58 You have to determine whether you are a member of the Communist Party, a totalitarian party or a terrorist organization. That's still right there inside. Please over. Thank you. Okay. Uh, and, and so I, you know, this is still part of the process here. Should, do you think that the administration should perhaps look at it? Like if we have communists running our greatest cities, um, or in our
Starting point is 01:28:21 largest, our largest cities, you know, should we take a harder look at this question on a naturalization process? Oh, there's no doubt. I mean, that shouldn't even be on the application. That is ridiculous. We fought that. My dad fought more too against that oppression and we lost what 500,000 young men and women
Starting point is 01:28:41 in war over this. And now we're gonna let them come to this country. That's BS. I'm telling you right now. And people, I'll tell you, of course, we live in a different area down here and we live in a different area. But at the end of the day, I think even the good people of New York and California
Starting point is 01:28:56 are gonna stand up. Yeah. Well, I hope so. What's your message to them? Let's talk about this gubernatorial race. And what's your message to them if they wish to flee New York and come to Alabama, Alabama's beautiful state. Um, you know,
Starting point is 01:29:10 what's your message to somebody from California or New York that says, Oh, maybe, you know, maybe I'll move on down to mobile. Well, don't be expecting a free lunch. I promise you, uh, bring your lunch with you because you're not going to be welcome if you're going to bring, uh, you know, that, uh, that, uh, communist Islamic, uh, atmosphere with you. We're not going to bring out and deal. We're not going to deal with it. I'm telling you right now, it's not going to happen in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee. It's not going to happen. Uh, but they're going to
Starting point is 01:29:37 try to make it happen. They're going to try to overwhelm us. And you know, if you just go back and look what Biden did, he brought in 200,000 people from Afghanistan. Now they said they were interpreters and stuff. I saw a bunch of these people. They were flown to Brussels. I asked the commander in Brussels, who are these people? We don't know, but we're going to identify them, put their name down and send them to the United States of America and make citizens out of them. That's what your past government did here in the Joe Biden administration. And of course, Obama did the same thing. So we have got to fight back
Starting point is 01:30:08 and we can't wait till it's past due. Well, yeah, I mean, it seems like the time's already here, right? It seems like they've already executed on the plan. The plan is of course, infinity criminal alien migrations, get rid of all election security. And then you can fundamentally change forever,
Starting point is 01:30:28 the makeup of the American electorate and get your Marxist agenda here in the country. And we're seeing it play out. It's not a conspiracy theory. It's not even a theory anymore. The great replacement is real. And it's actively happening in America's largest cities at scale.
Starting point is 01:30:44 And so it just seems like, yeah, it just seems like an alarming moment. Well, that's the easiest place to do it, many in the big cities where they have all these government handouts, where they can hang out on the streets, steal whatever they want to steal. Chicago, Detroit, they're all next. It'll happen in the big cities. It'll sweep across the country. And then they'll try to start going into the medium sized cities.
Starting point is 01:31:05 But we can't wait to that point. You know, we've got to call it out. Let it be known what it is. President Trump, I promise you, will fight back against it. Thank God he's in office. But again, it's all of our problem. It's all of America's problem. It's not just the president's.
Starting point is 01:31:19 He can't do it by himself. But the leadership in these inner cities are just God awful and they're getting worse. Would you, I know that you're very close with President Trump. Would you recommend that he potentially cut off funding to these cities? The candidate has promised to defy ICE and to fight ICE in New York. Of course, this is like neoonfederatism, right? Like this is, you know, we already fought a war over this question 150 years ago as to where the powers of the federal government lie. I don't know why blue cities and sanctuary cities are allowed to even exist.
Starting point is 01:31:56 But given the fact that he's promising to do this, I mean, should the Trump administration prepare for some severe penalties for New York? New York, of course, couldn't exist without federal funding. Yeah. You know, I've spoken several times with Tom Homan, who is basically running the inner city ice programs. And, uh, you know, he told me, he said, he's been pushed at every corner when he goes these big, big cities. I'm sure if you get a mayor like this, uh, that takes over,
Starting point is 01:32:23 it'll even be worse. And that's when you can, you can stop the federal funding. You can do anything. President Trump can do anything he wants when it comes to the federal. Again, these, these, uh, inner city rats, they live off the federal government. And that's one reason we're $37 trillion in debt. And it's time that we find these rats and we send them back home. They're living off the American taxpayers that working very hard every week to pay taxes. Yeah. I mean, it's a very much a wake-up call. I just, I think the entire country was sort of shocked.
Starting point is 01:32:53 The New York that we, the New York that we thought we knew is gone. And then that's a sad thing because you know, there, you can't rebuild in New York. It's like an Amer, it's an American city. I thought it was out, you know, I thought it was an American city. Um, uh, but that's, that city's gone, right? This New York we grew up with is gone. Uh, the red, the, the American dream is alive and well in Alabama. Congratulations.
Starting point is 01:33:12 Is it the first time on the show? Senator, uh, since your announcement, uh, tell me how's the race going? It's going well. Uh, we haven't got an opponent yet, but, uh, we, we will eventually have that. We still got a year and a half. As I told the president, I said, listen, I want to, he said, why do you want to do that? I said, because you're going to send the power
Starting point is 01:33:28 and the money back to the States, which he has promised. And he's doing that. I think that me being a builder, you know, ex football coach, put a team together and you get to make the decisions. So I'm looking forward to it. It'll be a different gig, so to speak. I'm one of 100 up here.
Starting point is 01:33:43 I'll be one of one in the state of Alabama with a lot of other good people working around us, but we're not gonna have a lot of these socialist communists around, I promise you that. And we're gonna have law enforcement. And those of you that live in New York that wanna get out, that wanna come to a great state, that wanna live in a free country,
Starting point is 01:34:00 that wanna do things right and get a good education, come on down. We want you to come down and be part of it. And, uh, and there are no, it won't be a lot of handouts, but there's going to be a lot of jobs that you're going to be able to, to get your hands on because manufacturing is coming back to the red States, not the blue States, because we have workers that want to do the right thing. That's right. Uh, sir, could you please explain how the golden dome will be built in Alabama?
Starting point is 01:34:26 Well, we built a lot of things in Huntsville, Alabama. You know, we, of course, we have NASA, SpaceX, Blue Origin. We have 500 defense contractors. We, we do a lot of things when it comes to the missile defense agency. So a lot of that will originate and be built in the, in Huntsville, Alabama, which we're very proud of. Now there's other parts of the country that will be able to do that. Huntsville is the biggest conglomerate of engineers in United States. We have very smart people there.
Starting point is 01:34:56 They do a lot of great work. And again, the future is space, okay? And a lot of this golden dome will be from space. It won't just be missiles. It'll be a high energy lasers that we're starting to roll out as we speak on a smaller scale. It'll be a larger scale in the future that will actually be lasers coming from space that will knock down missiles. There's a lot of things coming this AI and the future generations are going to have a really have a good time of putting things together to protect, not just us, but all of our allies.
Starting point is 01:35:29 There is a, you know, you're talking about economics and economic questions, something that affects not just Alabama, but the entire nation is the interest rates. You're one of the few senators who has actually been straight out the gate and said, you got to fire Jerome Powell right now. Can you talk me through your logic there? Sunder? Well, I call it FJP fire Jerome Powell. Uh, you know, I've known him since I got up here. And when I first get here five years ago, he came in office.
Starting point is 01:35:57 I said, what are you doing? How come you're not raising rates? And it was really slow and raising rates, uh, back when Joe Biden came in. And then of course he gets them so high. Now nobody's selling a home because of interest rates. They're going to keep their 3% loan and not sell a house. We don't have enough houses for people in, I know in our area, uh, there's not any building going on going on.
Starting point is 01:36:17 We have got to help the middle class. Your own pal is not helping the middle class. He's destroying the middle class. He's not given more jobs. Uh, we're sitting around looking at each other, wondering when is this interest is not helping the middle class. He's destroying the middle class. He's not giving more jobs. We're sitting around looking at each other, wondering when is this interest rate going to go down? He's killing our farmers.
Starting point is 01:36:31 Our farmers are absolutely going under. And I think this was a whole plan. Jerome Powell is a political guy. He is not an economist. And you know, you've talked to Scott Bessett of Secretary of Treasure. He says he talks to him all the time. They're letting him run his own show.
Starting point is 01:36:47 Uh, there's only one person on that, uh, fed board and Mickey Bowen, who is now as a vice chair that I would trust. She's the only one that voted against. The, uh, uh, raisin, uh, or drop in the interest rate right before the election for, uh, obviously Kamala Harris when, when inflation was sky high. So you can tell it's politics, but we got to get away from politics and help American people.
Starting point is 01:37:09 That's what this big, beautiful bill is going to do, by the way. And how is that going in the Senate? I know that there is quite a bit of ruckus over the parliamentarian striking brick by brick, some of the major accomplishments inside of that bill, at least from the house side.
Starting point is 01:37:26 How's it looking Senate? Well, it's going fine. People asked me about it. And two thirds of it is absolutely great for the American people, the making the tax cuts permanent. I mean, that's the main goal of this entire bill. Now then you have one third of it that everybody over here is kind of playing each other off and hey, I don't want to cut this from my state or do this or that. Sometimes you just got to bite the bullet and go on
Starting point is 01:37:48 down the road. Now the parliamentarian, uh, she gets in the, in the Senate gets to strike out some things. She did some about probably about 10, 15%, but at the end of the day, most of it is pretty good. And, uh, people ask me, is it going to pass? I said, it's going to be a photo finish exactly, it's going to be a photo finish. Exactly what it's going to be. Okay. Just really quickly looping back to the Senate here, since you will remain in the Senate for the next 18 months, yes? Right, right.
Starting point is 01:38:16 So Lisa Murkowski made a lot of news this last 24 hours by saying that she's interested in leaving the Republican party. Yeah, have you heard anything about that? Do you think that that's going to happen? Senator? I read where she said she was going to want to be an independent and, uh, uh, there was possibly if they won the majority, she would caucus with them.
Starting point is 01:38:37 When she came back. Uh, I don't know. That's how you represent your state. And again, you got to leave it up to each individual. But she hasn't voted Republican as much as she's voted Democrat since I've been here in five years. Again, you got to vote for your people. And that's what I do. People ask me all the time, why did you vote that way? Because that's the way the people of Alabama want me to vote. That's the reason you're here. You don't represent yourself. We've got some different personalities here on the Republican side, and it's going to
Starting point is 01:39:06 be interesting with this vote. I know President Trump gets back here tonight, and I'm sure he's got a list of people that he's going to make phone calls to that say, can I see you in the Oval Office tonight about 11 o'clock? He gets very involved, and thank God he does, because he's going to have to be the one to get this over the finish line. Right now, I don't know whether we to have to be the one to get this over the finish line right now. I don't know whether we have the votes Benny to get this bill passed and it's a crying shame because this is a great bill if we just look at the overall bill for the American
Starting point is 01:39:36 people. So yeah I mean we're pulling up the Alaska 2024 election map right now it's uh you know Donald Trump won it walking away. Donald Trump wins it in a demonstrable landslide. You can see here on the map and it's like, well, are you completely fraudulent? Did you just lie to everybody that you were a Republican? It seems an insane thing to do. Why would you do that?
Starting point is 01:40:01 It just seems like, just on its face, a betrayal of every resident of Alaska, Lisa Murkowski doing this. Well, if you look at their voting system, and I don't really understand it or know why people do this, they did this in the mayor's race yesterday in New York that ranked Shor's voting.
Starting point is 01:40:18 You don't have to get a majority, you just have to get the most votes out of a group of people. And that's how she's won the last couple of times. Now, again, as you said, President Trump won going away. So it is a Republican-rich state that is very important to the United States of America, the defense that we have protecting our Northern border. Dan Sullivan, the other Senator from up there,
Starting point is 01:40:40 I mean, he's a military guy, he is all in. So totally different perspective when you look at those two senators and that's usually not the way it, uh, it lines up. Uh, you know, when you have two senators, usually they're pretty close to voting, uh, the same, but we'll, we'll have to wait and see what she does. She's got to make her own decision. Wild. Yeah. You can see not, not a common one. And when a single county in all of Alaska, I don't pretend to know Alaska very well. I've never been there.
Starting point is 01:41:06 But yeah, I just see it just seems like on it. It just seems like the worst tile backstabbing to your voters and fraudulence. And we don't like that. OK, so speaking of there is a rescission package that defunds NPR and PBS and codify some of the Doge cuts by DC standard senators. Not really that much money. It's about $10 billion. And yet we hear that this is really struggling in the Senate. Can you give us any insight into what's happening there?
Starting point is 01:41:35 I don't understand why a Doge did all this work. Uh, you know, you've got people that, again, you got people that don't want to cut. And it's just unfortunate that we just didn't the first day of doing this do what Senator Ron Johnson said, listen, we over bloated everything when COVID started in 2019. Let's go back to 2019, start over, go with population growth and inflation,
Starting point is 01:41:59 add a little bit to all the agencies and start over. But we didn't do that. We kept on going the same direction. And, you know, it just, if you cut anything up here, you, you, it's a, it's a great day, but I haven't seen many of those great days up here. Nobody wants to cut anything. If we don't do it, many of our kids and grandkids, they're not going to have the same country that we've had. Might not have it for us. And just the next few years away, these votes are going in New York. Senator, like, I just have to ask one final follow-up here. I've given the Senate the breaking news and obviously you're a triumphant,
Starting point is 01:42:38 hopefully return to the state of Alabama, which I'm sure will be very welcome for you based on your appearance on this show. Chuck Schumer is in a tough situation here. I'm sure you know Chuck Schumer. And I'm sure, you know, it's, I'm not trying to malign you. I'm just, I'm, you know, you brush shoulders, right? Is he a socialist? Like what's going on here? Is he going to be primaried by this new, very radical, psychotic wing of what I guess used to be the empty husk of the Democrat party. Um, uh, you know, what's the dynamic there?
Starting point is 01:43:11 A lot of people are talking about it. Chuck Schumer, I don't know what he is. Uh, he, he's whatever he needs to be to get elected. And now that the far left is second over the party, he's going to go farther left himself. Uh, he's got obviously a lot of donors up there that he's brought a lot of money back to New York. He'll have to lean on them.
Starting point is 01:43:30 But I'll tell you right now, after he went along with the Buzzard resolution last year, I tell you what, they have turned upside down on him and he's enemy. He might be almost as big an enemy as Donald Trump, just for the fact that he voted on the Republican for the, to kick the can down the road and fund the government. So it's a bad situation for the Democrats.
Starting point is 01:43:55 They don't have anything to lay their head on. They don't know what they want to do. They want to go as far left as they can be a communist socialist country. They know they can't do it all at once. So they got to ease into it, but they got to have people like Chuck Schumer to get on board. And I would imagine to just to get elected, he'd jump on board with that. Wow.
Starting point is 01:44:16 So you think he'd be just going to straight up? Yeah, he's going to straight up go completely left-wing radical. I think, I think what you could do, Senator, we have a photo here of Chuck Schumer. I think what you could do is you could invite them down to Alabama, teach them how to grill a burger. Right? I'm sure you know how to grill a burger in Alabama, uh, and do some, you know, you don't put the cheese on the raw meat and maybe you could educate them a little bit in your fine state. Well, like I said, it's, you know, it's life's tough. It's a lot tougher
Starting point is 01:44:41 when you're stupid. Easy way to put it. Godspeed Senator. Uh, everybody follow the gray center. The next governor of Alabama, uh, the great coach, Tommy Tuberville, ladies and gentlemen, a hundred thousand Americans already follow, make sure that we're fighting with the people who fight for us. Godspeed center.
Starting point is 01:44:59 Thank you, Benny. Oh, ladies and gentlemen, we got some interesting times here in this country. And we got another interesting guest joining our show in just a moment. And Emily Jushinsky, who just launched a brand new show with Megyn Kelly's podcast network. I'm not sure if that show is out of New York. I know that Megyn Kelly's show is out of New York. I know that Megan Kelly's show is out of New York and the only man that could potentially save New York was on Fox news this morning. He's a current mayor. His name's Eric Adams and he's the last remaining hope for the city. And he talks through what's happening inside of America's largest city and what we can expect next. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:45:45 For your first response to that stunning news, Mayor Cuomo, Governor Cuomo is not going to be Mayor Cuomo. Well, first, it's not stunning to me. And I was very clear. And I'm still a Democrat. I'm running on an independent line, which the policy and the law allows me to do. You had one candidate that was running away from his record. You had another candidate with no record and you have Eric Adams with a record. I delivered for this city and we're not going backwards. We're not going into a place where we want to defend the police, don't invest in jobs, where we believe we can make broken promises that we can't deliver. I delivered on every promise I gave to this city.
Starting point is 01:46:32 Mr. Mayor, it's not just defend the police. This candidate, democratic socialist, he wants to freeze the rent. He wants city-run grocery stores, social workers to replace the police because that's going to help. He wants $60 billion of debt fund for affordable housing. He wants free buses, no cost for childcare, baby baskets for newborn, and a $30 minimum wage. How can someone vote for this? It's, he's a snake oil salesman. He would say and do anything to get elected.
Starting point is 01:47:03 Think about this for a moment. He wants to raise 1 percent. He wants to raise tax on 1 percent of New Yorkers high income earners. As the mayor, you don't have the authority to do that. You know who has the authority to do that? An assemblyman, which he is. He wants to do free buses. He could have done it at an assemblyman.
Starting point is 01:47:23 He doesn't understand the power of government and how you must make sure you improve your economy, raise the standard of living. And this is what we've done in the city. And I'm looking forward to being on the campaign trail and showing New Yorkers we can't go backwards. And New Yorkers never surrender or quit. I'm never going to quit for the city that I love. That is. Okay. Well, let's see. Let's see what happens. Obviously Fox News is located right downtown.
Starting point is 01:47:55 Got a big old building on Fifth Avenue. They'd probably be the first place shut down by the new Marxist mayor of New York or soon to be perhaps. We'll see the betting markets are often right on these things. And they say he has a 77% chance of becoming mayor. Someone who's actually interviewed Zohran, somebody who just launched a brand new show on Megyn Kelly's podcast network
Starting point is 01:48:22 is the great reporter and journalist, I think out of Washington, DC. We. We'll check here in just a second. Emily Jeszynski joins the program right now. Emily, what's up? Congratulations. Thanks, it's good to see you. It's been a while. Okay, so your show's called After Party.
Starting point is 01:48:39 Is the Democrat Party dead? They done? Yeah, after the Democratic Party. After, so your show is called After Party. Is the Democrat Party dead? Is it done? Yeah. After the Democratic Party is the real... Yeah. No, I mean, listen, I think for Zoran Mondani, one of the interesting things that he did on the campaign trail
Starting point is 01:48:57 is try to go from his previous record. Like, some people have seen some of the tweets circulating where he talks about how, like like queer feminism is the only feminism and you know the NYPD is intolerably racist and fascist and all of that. He was pretty careful even running in the Democratic primary in New York City to run away from that. So what's being set up here is a really interesting juxtaposition between NYPD Eric Adams that people just heard from right there and Zeram Mamdani who is from the DSA, the Democratic Socialist of America movement and carries a lot of that cultural culture war far left baggage now into a race where Eric Adams is already ready to go in on him. So it's a big test. I mean, Adams there said he's running as a Democrat.
Starting point is 01:49:47 He, this is a big test actually for where the party goes in the next couple of years right in New York City. But I don't get it. Like, you know, I know you interviewed the guy. I think we have here the, where was it? Was it on the Hill? Was it breaking points? Okay. Breaking points.
Starting point is 01:50:01 So it was like, yeah. So like you interviewed the guy first off, like I haven't watched the interview, but you know, what was, what was his angle there? Because you can't run away from things that you posted when somebody tells you who they are, believe them, right? Like he hasn't apologized for saying that the NYPD
Starting point is 01:50:19 isn't pro queer enough. So we should defund them and replace them with social workers. I mean, he did say that. And he ran on nationalizing grocery stores, which is like, you know, bold strategy has been tried. Not going to do, not going to go great for you. How does he run away from these things?
Starting point is 01:50:40 Yeah. I mean, he's going to, I actually put that question to his communications director last night Because we were doing a breaking points live stream actually from one of his watch parties and said basically now He has to run for all of New York City And I think they were caught off guard a little bit by the win and when I interviewed him back in November You know, he was basically a no-name state assemblyman and was this long shot. Nobody was taking him seriously. And even when I was interviewing him, I was like, this guy's DSA, Democratic Socialist of America, so far left.
Starting point is 01:51:16 Like, it just, you can't really picture that going so mainstream, but it just happened. And a lot of it happened, first of all, because Cuomo is such a, Andrew Cuomo is such a horrible candidate. Elderly people in New York, people with elderly relatives who were impacted by Cuomo COVID policies. Maybe they didn't go out and vote for Zoran Mamdani, but maybe they just didn't go out and vote because the option was just so offensive to people.
Starting point is 01:51:43 So now, Zoran, I asked his communications director, running for everybody, what do you do? They said they're just going to focus on affordability, affordability, affordability. But you can bet that Eric Adams is not just going to focus on affordability when Zeron Nandani comes with those years of posting things and talking very openly. I mean, that's his very, he's obviously a dyed in the wool cultural leftist. He believes in those things. And now they're gonna be pressed on him every single day until November.
Starting point is 01:52:15 This election map's amazing. So obviously the blue is Cuomo and the yellow is Mamdani. Like Wall Street voted for him. That's wild. Wall Street voted for him. That's wild. Wall Street voted for him. The richer higher income areas really turned out by double percentage points. What's, can you explain that exactly?
Starting point is 01:52:36 I mean, is it like cultural suicide? Is it self-loathing? Is it like daddy did love me? What exactly is that? What is this pathology, I guess? Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, cause he was in polling. Cuomo was ahead with, you know, people who,
Starting point is 01:52:55 without a four year college degree by 60, 40, a 60, 40 margin right before the election was actually held. Now on this, I think you can see Cuomo won like upper West side, upper east side, and that may have something to do with the charges of anti-Semitism that were thrown at Zoran Mamdani. It may have played differently in certain places. Obviously, he denied that very stridently.
Starting point is 01:53:21 But at the same time, we are now looking at a map that's like, I wonder if Zoram Mbamdani was able to flip the narrative going in because Andrew Cuomo was so hated that he was actually going to lose the rich votes. And people were just like, Andrew Cuomo is so freaking awful. He's so terrible. We're going to vote against him. And maybe people didn't actually think that Saram Vandani would win. That can happen in elections like this. People sort of do an F-U vote and things get exploded in ways that nobody anticipates. And that may be what we're looking at right now. I just love the modern Democrat Party because the moment that they think they have something on Trump, they just punch themselves directly in the nuts and you know, burn down LA or burn down New York and just show everyone who they are and they can't help it. And it's
Starting point is 01:54:14 really fun. And it's totally idiotic. And it's just it's really fun. It's exciting to watch, right? So now the entire instead of just putting in Like sort of your run-of-the-mill like like boring Democrat to run, New York You have like I don't again. I don't understand the pathology like I don't understand why they have to choose the single most extreme radicalized like caricature Fox News caricature of Modern-day leftist radical. Like they just plucked them straight out of the Columbia protests in New York.
Starting point is 01:54:48 That's a good way to put it. Except the two, Zeram and Donnie's credit. One thing that he did actually do was talk all of the time about economics, kitchen table stuff. And so while you and I would look at that and be like, well, this is actually gonna bring prices down or help the economy of New York City. If you are somebody who is living paycheck to paycheck
Starting point is 01:55:09 in the city and you're furious about the cost of housing, yeah, you look at an Eric Adams, you look at an Andrew Cuomo, people who have had power for a while and say, whatever, I'm going with this guy because he at least seems to understand how bad things are. Now, again, you and I would disagree with that, but he was obviously aware of how poorly
Starting point is 01:55:27 the culture war stuff plays and was trying very hard to only talk about kitchen table issues. And I imagine that's what he's going to try to do going forward, but you just brought up an interesting point about ICE deportations, all of that. This was a problem for Eric Adams, by the way, during the Biden administration, when New York City was a sanctuary city and was the residence of New York City, people who are Democrats,
Starting point is 01:55:50 lifelong Democrats, were furious with the sanctuary city policies, with the Biden administration, with the Adams administration at the time. And Adams basically pivoted and said, yeah, this is wrong. This is not good for the city. This is hurting my constituents. Mamdani is about as far left as you can get on those questions and has leaned into it. He was talking last night in his victory speech about how he's fighting Trump's fascism and going to stop Trump from deporting, I think he said quote, our neighbors. Now that is a kitchen table issue for a lot of working class voters in New York City who see it as a labor question, not just a New York City who see it as a labor question,
Starting point is 01:56:25 not just a culture war immigration thing, but as a labor question, as a question of jobs, as a question of the economy. And so that I think is going to be one of the biggest obstacles for Mamdani in the months ahead. People don't like the criminal aliens in New York. No, like I get, like I get that. I get it. It's like an easy pantomime caricature of like a left-winger, but you go into New York, as you just said, and you talked to working classes, you know, the people that are actually like naturalized citizens there and they hate it.
Starting point is 01:56:55 I mean, they hate it like a lot. How does it work? Right? Like, so what's going to happen next? Like, do you think Eric Adams can win? Yes. I think Eric Adams can absolutely win. I think Zeron Mdani can win because if you're a Democrat in New York City, you come in with a massive advantage just because you have D next to
Starting point is 01:57:13 your name. And Benny, you and I follow politics so closely that we sort of forget the average voter probably heads to the polls on Election Day. And a lot of times just says, well, I'm a Democrat, I'm going with D. I've heard a little bit about this person, a little bit about that person. So you already do have a significant built-in advantage. You're the Democratic candidate for mayor, so it's definitely not impossible that Zeram Mamdani wins this. But Eric Adams, for all of the scandals that are plaguing him, now has the built-in advantage of looking like a calm and steady hand relative
Starting point is 01:57:44 to such uncertainty in the form of Zoram Namdani. So he absolutely could win this. So zooming out, this is one of my favorite maps on the show, the 2030 apportionment forecast. Like they're cooked, man. Like listen, there's, you know, Emily, after 2028, Republicans don't even have to win the Rust Belt anymore. You don't even have to win Pennsylvania in order to win a national election. I mean, this is truly like a survival moment for the left. And we've often speculated, not like I'm into,
Starting point is 01:58:19 not like I'm into giving left-wingers free advice, but the only way to fix this is obviously to like come to the middle and to not like burn your cities down, not to do what's happening in LLA and New York, but they're incapable of that. And these trends are like really bad. Obviously you see New York and California,
Starting point is 01:58:40 the two states that are burning their major cities to the ground, you see them losing piles of electoral votes. And this is what's already been done. I mean, this die is cast. This is finished. It's over, right? Texas and Florida are going to gain a pun, uh, going to gain over 10 electoral votes. New York and California are going to lose, um, because of this.
Starting point is 01:59:01 So like, I just, I get, you know, I guess from, selfishly I'm like continue the trend. Like it's bad for our great American cities. It sucks because we should all feel like America, like we should wanna go visit New York or Chicago or LA, but it's gonna play out really, really badly as they continue to hemorrhage electoral votes, right? Like this is very bad for the party image. Well, yeah, and it also shows,
Starting point is 01:59:26 that's one of the interesting things about this map, how we are increasingly being sort of, like Charles Murray wrote the book, Coming Apart in 2012. We can see that happening like physically, geographically. Right now we are concentrating in pockets based on politics. And in the longterm, that's not good that you're pushing all of the normal people out of New York
Starting point is 01:59:48 because it basically creates Gotham. You have really wealthy people who are able to be protected by their private security and then really poor people who are just trying to survive and who work for the really wealthy people. And Benny, I know you've talked about this, but I think you left DC during COVID and you went to Florida. And one of the reasons that sanctuary cities like DC during COVID were such a disaster was because of immigration policies, it was because of crime, it was because the cities were filthy. And those were all downstream of
Starting point is 02:00:23 deep blue policies, of unchecked democratic progressive culture or policies in the cities. And so that's where I think you're gonna see the Mumdani campaign try really hard to look like they've got nothing to do with that, but it's really hard when you're also talking about stopping ICE deportations. Like I think it's going to be a very, very interesting race
Starting point is 02:00:43 to watch actually, because they're trying to do the kitchen table economics thing at the same time as doing the Trump is a fascist culture war type thing. I mean, fascism is obviously locking people into their homes, telling them they can't breathe air because of some mysterious virus that the CIA created, right? And then released upon us during an election and then locked everyone out. And then let, but by the way, turned every park in DC into a homeless encampment
Starting point is 02:01:11 that I have to walk my newborn baby past, defund the DC police. I'm like, I've lived this, you know, I've lived it. It's looking like, like, I feel like Emily, I got the last chopper out of NOM is what I feel like in 2020, like leaving right at the beginning of that, you know, seeing where it was going and then leaving and not being there through the Biden era. I think you're still in DC, right? Yeah. Yeah. Not too far from where you were,
Starting point is 02:01:34 but it's actually, this is an interesting point. It's an interesting point because Muriel Bowser is an Eric Adams type figure who kind of put all the chips in on the progressive leftism During the Trump era and that really part of the Biden era when they thought that's where the country was because they were listening Disproportionately to Twitter and left-wing media outlets and so they went all in and they thought this was smart This was a clever strategy, but she's pivoted. And it's so noticeable in DC when they change the crime policies and they change. I mean, it's just like you see it, a textbook example of what happens when you change the policies back
Starting point is 02:02:15 into a conservative direction and you realize the city gets better. You can see it before your eyes. It just played out perfectly. So it's not as bad as it was. Now, it's still a blue city. So you're still probably better off in Florida, Penny. But it's
Starting point is 02:02:29 amazing to watch it happen. And that's an advantage for Eric Adams on the question of immigration and crime going forward. Yeah. Well, I mean, when you're like when your home's getting set on fire and people are throwing bricks and you're trying to like walk your kid,
Starting point is 02:02:44 your newborn in a stroller, it's not great. It's not. There's like a roving antifa mob on every corner. Yeah, not a good place to raise a family. So again, last chopper out of NOM. I'm glad you survived. I'm glad that obviously Trump has given the left license to do what they have to do for their survival,
Starting point is 02:03:07 which is to try and move at the very least away from cultural suicide. But I think it looks really bad. I think your show looks really good. The Tucker clip went thermonuclear viral is great. It's very interesting. It's an awesome new show. Can you tell us a little bit about it after party?
Starting point is 02:03:24 Yeah, no, thanks, Benny. It was so kind of Tucker to come on, especially in that news cycle. But what we're doing on Mondays and Wednesdays at 10pm is a live streaming late night show where we go in after the news cycle. It's where the kind of after party comes in. It's a little bit of double entendre, but we come in after the news cycle, try to be a little bit relaxed and think about what happened in, try to be a little bit relaxed and think about what happened in that day, have a little bit of fun with it. And we love that it's live.
Starting point is 02:03:50 Benny, you know, there's just a special energy to doing things live. So we're super excited about it. It's 10 PM Mondays and Wednesdays. You can find it on YouTube. 10 PM? Holy moly. I know.
Starting point is 02:04:03 My entire team knows. We had guests last night and I was up past 10 PM and now I'm suffering. I didn't drink anything. It was so bad. I didn't drink anything but that was past my bedtime and now I'm hurting. It's horrible. I'm on the wrong side of 30, Emily. I was going to say. This is not the Benny that I remember. I got a million kids. I got a million kids now, you know, on the raw. I got tea, I like to drink at night. Wow. I got slippers, I got a night cap.
Starting point is 02:04:34 Night cap literally means a little cap I wear, okay? Instead of an alcohol, yeah. But Emily, if there is a reason to stay up past 9 p.m., then your show is it. Everybody follow Emily for more interesting and very insightful takes. And I look forward to seeing your new show be a massive smashing success, Emily.
Starting point is 02:04:55 Godspeed. Thank you, Ben. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Starting point is 02:05:01 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Ooh baby, we got such, such a good lineup here of JD clips. I went thermonuclear last night. JD Vance just holding it down. Probably should have led with this, but we had the president Trump hour long press conferences to kick us off.

I gotta get to these JD clips. JD Vance, so while President Trump dropped
Starting point is 02:07:18 a hard FF bomb yesterday at the White House, JD Vance decided to, should I do it? I just, I have to do it. The Vice President did it, okay? I'm sorry, I'm not flipping you off. I'm just saying White House. JD Vance decided to, should I do it? I just, I have to do it. The vice president did it, okay? I'm sorry, I'm not flipping you off. I'm just saying this is what JD Vance did. He flipped out, he just did the hard middle finger to the audience, and what's that about?
Starting point is 02:07:35 What's that about? What's JD doing? This is what went so viral. Here you go. Trust me, in Washington, DC, they have this thing where I think it means we're number one in Washington, DC.C., but all the pink-haired people throw up this sign, and I think, you know, that means we're number one, right? I choose to take that as that symbol in Washington, but all kidding aside...
Starting point is 02:08:01 Give me a photo of that. Give me the photo. Cause the style of this is like the hard finger straight up in the air. I'm going to try not to do it. We try not to curse on this program. I try not to flip off everyone on this program. Alright, there it is. Yeah, the hard, the hard like straight up middle finger. Okay, this is a very special style of flipping the bird. Yes, very aggressive.
Starting point is 02:08:22 That's very aggressive. This is very, very aggressive. This is very, very aggressive. This is Fred Durst style. Like, yeah, this is run DMC, like early nineties rap style, rap rock, kid rock style, uh, energy here, which is of course is the Appalachia energy of JD Vance. There it is, ladies and gentlemen, goodness gracious. So JD Vance is making a joke about how libs flip him off as he drives through DC. And he thinks that's very funny. And he was cracking jokes also about President Trump launching a
Starting point is 02:08:53 nuclear weapon. Oh, no, somebody call CNN. JD Vance told a joke humor is illegal. Listen, and the president looks over at me puts the foreign leader on mute and says, this is not going very well, and he presses the red button. And my eyes get really big, and I'm like, Mr. President, what just happened? And he looks at me and he goes, nuclear. Nuclear. And two minutes later, a guy walks in with a Diet Coke and he looks back at me and he
Starting point is 02:09:27 says, it wasn't nuclear, it's just the Diet Coke button. And that's... So that's the kind of guy, my fellow Republicans, that we have as the President of the United States. Okay. It is a beautiful thing. Ladies and gentlemen, JD Vance, one more time. You hear the American media say all the time that Donald Trump is a threat to democracy.
Starting point is 02:09:52 JD Vance, doing his best to, you know how when they pave a street, you gotta grind everything down, make it nice and even? He's doing his best, he's like the earth grinder right now. He's paving the way, okay? He's smoothing out the road for a 2028 run. You can see it. You can sense it. We're getting way ahead of ourselves here.
Starting point is 02:10:15 We got so much work to do, but you can see what JD is doing right now. He is the clearly the heir apparent. And ladies and gentlemen, here's JD Vance being quite the disciplinarian and the final and most important thing and I think this is the most important issue confronting this country and it was certainly the most important issue that was destroying this country for over the past four years and that is the issue of illegal immigration. Now, if I had stood here in October of 2024 and you
Starting point is 02:10:46 had told me that after 45 days of the Trump administration we would have illegal border crossings down between 95 to 99 percent, I would have said, whoa, whoa, whoa. I believe the president is very serious about this and I believe the president is very effective. But there is no way that we're going have a legal border crossings down that much. And I'm happy to report that one and a half months into the Trump administration, we had a legal border crossings down 99%. It was a radical success and it happened very quickly.
Starting point is 02:11:16 And I believe ladies and gentlemen, that that saved the United States of America, because we know exactly what the Democrats, not because we had to read their minds, but because Democrats would go out and say that what they wanted to do with those 20, 25 million illegal aliens is give every single one of them the right to vote, and turn them into permanent wards of the Democratic Party. And if we allowed that to happen, if we allowed the Democratic Party to import voters instead of persuade voters, that would have been the end of American democracy.
Starting point is 02:11:53 You hear the American media say all the time that Donald Trump is a threat to democracy. The threat to the democracy is Democrats importing voters instead of persuading their fellow citizens. Freaking sharp, dude. It's amazing. And you're blackpilling? No, don't blackpill. Don't blackpill. We're finally able to call out the problem. You can't fix the problem, you can't talk about, right? There's no such thing as a great replacement theory. There's just the great replacement in action and it's happening and it's already happened in fact,
Starting point is 02:12:31 in some of these places that are totally lost, that are completely lost. I mean, I guess we'll see. I guess we'll see what happens in New York, but it's gonna be a wild one. We may be heading to New York. We're gonna talk about that. I've just, I've gotta be in my bonnet
Starting point is 02:12:45 about the Bronx girl AOC. Just a story I really wanna do about where does she actually come from? Was Jenny from the block actually from the block? Ladies and gentlemen, we may have a little trip. Later in the week, we may have to go to New York and find out what's actually happening. We'll see, we'll decide on that today.
Starting point is 02:13:06 But what we will decide on every single day and as guaranteed is our verse of the day. Ladies and gentlemen, from Proverbs 16, 21. The wise in heart are called discerning and gracious words promote instruction. The wise in heart are called discerning. Gracious words promote instruction. Make sure today that you are locked in with your scriptures.
Starting point is 02:13:29 Make sure on every day, but especially in these times when clearly the forces of darkness are being rolled back, they're getting very aggressive, right? But light is winning. Victory is winning. Donald Trump is like out there purely promoting peace right now. And as far as I know,
Starting point is 02:13:47 ALX correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know, there's been no breaking of the ceasefire. There's been actual peace brought upon that region. I hear that a Gaza and Ukraine deal are around the corner and may well have just been signed in fact with President Trump and Zelensky. There's more to come on that.
Starting point is 02:14:10 That's all the rumblings right now. So peace in our time, but also you gotta understand that the global peace is one thing. Peace in our country is the next thing. And we gotta actually focus entirely on that as the main thing. Keep the main thing the main thing.
Starting point is 02:14:30 So we take care of our house and we'll do that by fighting darkness, fighting back against darkness. Spreading salt and light is what we do on this program. It's always an honor to have you join us. In the end, we win. It's the best thing you could possibly say. It's your boy Benny. See ya.
