So Pam Bondi and Cash Patel make a stunning announcement today. President Trump is refusing to back down from China. And Senator John Federman reacts to the smear campaign from his own party. Our children, if you harm our children, you will be given no sanctuary. There is no place we will not come to hunt you down. There is no place we will not look for you. And there is no cage we will not put you in should you do harm to our children. The prioritization of this administration and General Bondi,

has made it abundantly clear to child predators. You will be hunted down and you will be prosecuted. Okay, so let's give some credit to Cash Patel and Pan Boni. We'd love to hear that people are being arrested for committing crimes, especially when those crimes are against children. Now, before we go any further, I'm giving you the facts. This is Ground News that I'm using. If you guys want to check this off yourself,

just got to ground.com. Now, here's what happened. FBI-led Operation Restore Justice. This is a five-day nationwide effort that led to the, arrest of 205 alleged child sex predators. Also, during the operation, authorities saved 115 children and apprehended suspects, including law enforcement personnel, and civilians from multiple states who are now federally charged with offenses involving child exploitation. Now, here is what Pam Bondi had to say.

A hundred and 15 victims, victims, children, in five days, we were able to help. these depraved human beings, if convicted, will face the maximum penalty in prison, some life. We will find you, we will arrest you, and we will charge you. If you are online targeting a child, you will not escape us. The FBI and the Department of Justice will come after you, and we will prosecute you. So it's already sickening that people are doing this to children, right? God's children is what I would call them. What's also is a lot of also sickening is how the media is reporting on this story, which is why we're using ground news. Like I said, if you guys want to check this up yourself, just go to ground.com.

This tool shows you what both sides of the political spectrum is saying. And in this situation, only the right is reporting on these stories. That's called blind spot, ladies and gentlemen. The people on the left do not want to talk about this. So as an example here, as you can see, 66% of the articles lean right. And so it just begs the question, what is the left so afraid of when it comes to reporting on this story. This is why you have to have a tool that helps you do your own research like Ground News. So if you want to use this tool for yourself, all you have to do is go to ground.

This is so serious. Your child has no right to privacy on the internet. None. You have to monitor what your kids are doing, whether they're playing games on the internet, or on social media, any other websites that children, teenagers frequent, an online predator can find them. Now, as a person who has experienced sexual abuse when I was a kid, this is a soft spot for me. And so I really do applaud the FBI for doing their job. In fact, if all they did for the next four years was arrest child predators and members of the cartel, I would be one happy American citizen, okay? Because I think those are the most egregious crimes in our world.

And what's interesting about this announcement is the timing. Cash Patel had to make an appearance on Capitol Hill to talk about the budget cuts facing the FBI. What Democrats spent their time doing is claiming that Cash Patel is weaponizing the FBI. Take a listen. I was an impeachment manager for President Trump's second impeachment. It was a sad, solemn duty. And so I wanted to ask you about that. Mr. Patel, as you and the president continue to weaponize and investigate his perceived enemies as you follow this blueprint, when can I, a former impeachment manager, expect the FBI at my door?

Ma'am, you want to know who was targeted by a weaponized FBI? Me. You want to know how and why? You want to know what I'm doing to fix it? Let me move on. Well, you should read the book because there's no enemies list on that book. There are people that violated their constitutional. obligations and their duties to the American people, and they were rightly called out, and you should give that book to every one of your constituents so they can read about it. I won't be doing that. That's their loss. So this is just ridiculous.

They spent all this time crying about the FBI being weaponized all of a sudden, but they have forgotten what went on under Biden for four years. And to make matters worse, they don't even acknowledge or recognize that the FBI is now cracking down on child predators. I think we all can celebrate that no matter which side your own. on. But maybe that's just too much to ask. And now we move to our next story. This is about President Trump making a shocking update about the trade war with China. And of course, Democrats in all of these hearings today are demanding answers. Unfortunately, it didn't go well with them

when it came to Scott Besson. Let's start with what the president said. Take a listen. On the talks in Switzerland, what do you expect to do? What do you hope to come out of it? We'll see. I mean, look, we were losing a trillion dollars a year. Now we're not losing anything. That's the way I look at it. We were losing with China on trade a trillion dollars a year. More, actually. One point in one. But let's say a trillion.

You know what we're losing now? Nothing. That's not bad. China said the U.S. initiated the trade talks this week, given that its position hasn't changed. Are you still confident you can reach a deal with China? They said we initiated it? Well, I think they ought to go back and study their files.

Okay? I do think that. Are you open to pulling back your tariffs in order to get China to the negotiation? shooting table? No. No, that last point was a studying admission from the president. He's unwilling to lower tariffs. And I think that's a great thing, because China is a bunch of cheaters in every sense of the word. Now, number two, he also acknowledged that it's not America who's been trying to initiate these trade talks. It's actually China. And of course, China has been pushing it back and saying, nope, it's not us either. So it's a lot of back and forth in the media. That's why that meeting

this weekend with Scott Besson and their trade representative is so important. But don't tell that to Democrats because they're more obsessed with trying to, I guess, find a gotcha moment with Scott Besson in his hearing earlier today. Take a listen. Specifically, which countries are you close to striking deal with? I'm sorry, Congresswoman, but that would not benefit the United States. No, no, no. I'm asking you a question based on the statement that you made on CNBC. And I am telling you that it would be definitely.

detrimental to the interest of the United States for me to answer that question. Why will that be detrimental? Because as the negotiations may still be in process as we speak, as we are not at the end of the week yet, I am sure that you, through your question, would not want to compromise the U.S. negotiating. Reclaiming my time. Yeah, so he's right. I mean, she's over there just trying to get a moment, right? Trying to go viral.

Instead of focusing on the important issues, like how she's. China has been ripping us off, right? I find it interesting that they're so obsessed with who we're actually talking to instead of being obsessed with the real enemy, which is China. All right. Now, here is Scott Jennings. I say actually explaining the mindset of the White House and why they act the way that they do in regards to China.

Take a listen. Scott Besson today under oath said we're currently negotiating with 16 of the 17 most important countries. And he'll be meeting with the Chinese this weekend when they all converge in Switzerland. I think dealing with, I'm sorry, with all due respect to all these other countries making deals, they're small and relatively unimportant. We're the big player in the field and everybody knows it, and people would rather do business with us than do business with China because of what Jim just said.

They have all these strategies to inflict pain upon you if you don't bend to their will or allow them to break the rules. And so I think when you're dealing with the United States, it's going to take a little bit of time to work out the best deal for us and the best deal for them. But I have a lot of confidence that when push comes to shove and people get right down to it. An alliance, a trading partnership, business dealings with the United States is a heck of a lot better than being reliant on the Chinese because they have seen what they have done to us and everybody else in the world. The decoupling and the isolation of China is a real thing.

And it may be a little painful, but it's necessary. Now, the pushback from Democrats with the support of mainstream media is they don't like the strategy that President Trump is using to fight against China. Now, you guys want to know what my pushback is? Where was your guys a strategy when Joe Biden was the president. Oh, yeah, that's right. You didn't have one. So, again, they criticize him for taking action when they refused to take action.

And here's an example that Congressman Goldman doing what he does best on CNN, which is trash President Trump. Take a listen. Any world where perhaps what President Trump is doing with the Chinese could help the American economy in the long run or not? I mean, not at this rate where it's clearly

just a sort of gut instinctive reactions, sort of an overly emotional reaction where he just continued to ratchet up tariffs because, you know, I'm tougher than you. That's essentially what his basis is. And that underscores, I think, what Jerome Powell said today about the uncertainty. There is no rhyme or reason. There is no strategy here that Donald Trump is implementing for our economy. And that was reflected by exactly what Jerome Powell said. We have no idea what the purpose or the point is. There are many different reasons. None of them explain these escalating tariffs and none of them are going to be successful. So we're all sitting here waiting, wondering what he's going to get. And I certainly hope it's a lot more than

just forcing foreign countries to take contracts from Elon Musk and Starlink, which was also reported today. And that's what they forget. President Trump is their president. And they should be rooting for him to be successful in all of this, not continuing to show up on mainstream media, criticizing the president at every step. And again, we're only 100 days into this administration. Let me remind you.

And the congressman was referencing the announcement from Jerome Powell. who is the Fed chair, who, again, he's doing what annoys President Trump so much, refusing to lower interest rates. Here's that announcement. My colleagues and I remain squarely focused on achieving our dual mandate goals of maximum employment and stable prices for the benefit of the American people. Despite heightened uncertainty, the economy is still in a solid position. The unemployment rate remains low, and the labor market is at or near maximum employment. Inflation has come down a great deal, but has been running.

somewhat above our 2% longer-run objective. In support of our goals, today the Federal Open Market Committee decided to leave our policy interest rate unchanged. The risks of higher unemployment and higher inflation appear to have risen, and we believe that the current stance of monetary policy leaves us well positioned to respond in a timely way to potential economic developments. Okay, so you have to understand why this matters to you, and also why President Trump is annoyed by this. Number one, by him refusing to cut interest rates, it keeps borrowing costs

painfully high for Americans. Think about this. Home mortgage rates are 7% plus. Okay, that's high. It also chokes the economy at a terrible time when GDP decreased. Also, it punishes Trump's momentum when it comes to his economic policies. And I think the last thing here is it reveals that this is politically motivated. Because he wasn't scared to cut rates. under Joe Biden when the inflation was significantly higher. Now all of a sudden, he's scared to do it now. Come on, man. Give me a break.

Now, here is Senator John Kennedy reminding everybody the reality of China and the serious threat that they pose. Take a listen. China is our enemy, unquestionably. China, and when I say China, I'm talking about their government, China is also on a bad way. Their economy is weak as rainwater. Their economy right now looks like somebody chewed them up and spit them out and stepped on them.

Their unemployment is way up, particularly among young people. Their property market has imploded. Their debt is sky high, particularly at the local level. Their numbers, their GDP numbers are inflated. The other point I'd make about China, how can I put this, trusting China to do anything other than what is in their best interest is naive and inconsistent with history and common sense. The Chinese government cheats, they do. They can steal your socks without taking your shoes off. Now, but they need America.

they buy from us or they sell us about four to five times more than we sell them. And that's why ultimately we will win in a trade war. And from the perspective of the president, this is why it's a national emergency that China has been ripping us off, still in our manufacturing jobs, and we're continuing to experience a growing trade deficit. Yeah, so as I told you guys, Scott Bessent was testifying this morning, and Democrats continue to show why they're out of touch. They're questioning, number one, President Trump's authority in regards to terrorists, and number two, that this trade deficit with China is not an actual emergency.

They're downplaying all of this. Take a list. Four decades, we've had trade deficits in the United States of America, and nobody said it was an emergency, Democratic and Republican presidents. You know what that says to me? That is not an emergency, because it hasn't been for four decades. It says to me that we should bring tariffs back to the United States Congress so that we can make that determination, as the Constitution has said, and not trying to go around Congress.

That's just unbelievable to me. Yeah. Now, in case you guys didn't know this, it is true that tariffs is to, you know, usually used by Congress, not by the president, but because an emergency was issued from the executive branch that is President Trump. And granted by Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, he now has the authority to use tariffs in an emergency fashion to respond to the trade deficits around the world, because that's how he has categorized all this. And Democrats are really upset because it seems to me that President Trump knows what he's doing, even though they'd have

you believe he doesn't know what he's doing and all he does is golf all day, right? I'm sure you guys have heard of that. Now, to prove my point that Democrats are the ones who don't know what they're doing, here is his follow-up question to Scott Besson, the Treasury Secretary. Listen to this. Let me ask this question. Maybe I'm... They missed it.

Who was the president? And who has been the president since January 20th, 2025? Donald J. Trump. Okay. And who was the president in 2024? One believes President Biden. One believes? You one of those non-believers that the election, the American people, didn't vote?

I am not. You're not? You said one believes? Do you believe in the Constitution of the United States? I believe in the Constitution of the United States. So you believe in it without any second thought. You don't have to think about it. You believe in it, and you would abide by it.

Is that correct? I have, and I do, sir. Okay. Do you know that a president has said he may or may not? He don't know? Yeah, this is just a joke. I mean, listen, when they do these hearings, it's a dog and pony show is what I call it. Okay? Some of these people serving in Congress, they can't wait for a hearing because this is the only time they're ever going to get attention.

Now, that's my own personal opinion. I wonder if you guys think the same because I'd never heard of that congressman until now. And quite frankly, you could see the composure of Scott Besson and why he has the utmost respect for most people. And I think if I recall correctly, nobody voted against his confirmation. Now you see why. And now we go to our next story. That is about Senator John Federman. and he is the next individual to be axed by the Democrat Party, okay? So they are now leaking information about his health and his journey from when he had a stroke to the media. It's actually disgusting. But let's first hear from Congressman Mullen, who's a Republican because he works with them

and what he says about all this. Take a listen. Let me ask you something about, you probably read the story of New York Magazine on Fetterman, it's like an expose on his health. from what you've seen i mean you're one of his colleagues in the senate does he seem okay to you yeah i i came in with new john right and i've traveled with john i think he seems to be cognitively better today than he was when he first came in as a freshman uh so i don't i can't speak to his health as far as you know i'm not a doctor and i'm definitely not going to break any

hipper rules but it is kind of funny because the way the democrats act is if you don't agree them on all their points they want to wipe you off the face of the earth and it was just you know a few short years ago that fetterman was like this god sent in pennsylvania and he came here and they realized that fetterman's his own man he's going to speak his mind and he's going to he's going to say it the way that it is or the way that he feels like it is anyways and they can't control him and the democrats all about controlling their party and so if you're speaking away from him it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's sure seems like that. This is more of a planted story, but like I said, I can't. I'm not a doctor and I'm definitely

don't know his medical history. All right, so that hit piece was published in New York Times titled former federal aid expressed concern to doctor about senator's mental health. Now, the former chief of staff, the senator John Federman last year, wrote to a doctor who had treated him, pointing to, quote, warning signs that suggested the senator could be backsliding on his recovery from a mental health crisis. So let's get this straight. John Fetterman, who clearly had a stroke, was not mentally all there in the beginning of that, was still elected, by the way, even though, you know, there were some things that happened during that election that should have disqualified him. However, today he's in a place that is leaps and bounds where he was back then, and now you're

releasing this story under the anonymous sources name. You don't even have the gall to release your own name. It's so interesting. into me. Now, here's what Senator John Federman had to say in response. No one's ever seen that. It's a one source, it's a one source story with a couple anonymous sources, hit piece from a very left publication. There's really nothing more to say about that. He said he was worried that you're not taking your medications. Are you taking your medications, sir? Again, the hit piece, anonymous sources, disgruntled staffers. Yeah. So that's exactly what you would expect this senator to say. And to continue to show you the hypocrisy here and how the media just switches up on a person quickly. Take a look at this example. New York Magazine posted this October 2022. Now, in the final weeks of the race, Federman is banking on the hope that voters will see in his vulnerability a new way to appreciate his strength. That sounds nice. And just five days ago, they posted this. John Federman assists he's in good health. But staff,

Pass and present say they no longer recognize the man they once knew. Interesting. You see how they just switch up the tone? And here is CNN asking him about his reaction to this entire smear campaign. Take a listen. Individual is a former chief of staff who has said that he's concerned about your well-being, which is why he went public. What do you say to someone like him is concerned about?

He says he's concerned about your personal level. It's like now he's had a weird grudge. and he has threatened to do this for quite a while. And if you're really concerned about someone, you could say, hey, let's sit down. Can we talk? It's not like going to the media. And that's why somebody that has an agenda, it's like a hit piece. Yep, that's exactly what it looks like to me, and that's my own personal viewpoint.

But let me get yours in the comments section. How do you see this as it pertains to John Fetterman? Do you believe it's a hit piece? Also, let me get your reaction to FBI director, Cashmettella, the announcement they made about a cracking down on child predators. Now, yesterday, SCOTUS issued a shocking ruling in favor of the president, where they ban transgenders from serving in the military. But you got to hear the reaction.

It's pretty crazy. So if you missed out on that story and more from yesterday, all you have to do is click on that video because it's coming up right now. You know,
