State regime media, which calls itself Fox News, was crashing on live TV as the Epstein file vote passed in both the House and then by unanimous consent in the Senate when Maga Mike and Trump were not expecting it. Also, there was horrible jobs data that was released yesterday showing more job losses. The Trump economy is an absolute disaster and Trump's approval is like the work. in modern presidential history. So how is Fox trying to cope? What brainwashing tactics are they using against their viewers?

I want you to watch Fox in freak out mode right now. You have one of their hosts on the five say, you know, consumer confidence is down so much, but things are going so great and prices are down. Why is it that consumers are struggling or saying that they're struggling? Well, it's because prices are up and you're lying and your propaganda isn't working. Here, play this clip.

But what is down to your, both your points is consumer confidence. It's down 10% since Trump took office. And so you have to ask why that is why people feel that way, even though prices are down, gas is down, oil is down, some food prices are down. Why do they feel that way? And Republicans would be very smart not to ignore that. Then you have Greg Gutfeld trying to cope with why Donald Trump is so angry about the release of the Epstein files. And he goes, or the vote to release the Epstein files and Gutfeld's like, you know, Donald Trump, he's so, he's so pissed off because he always wants to extract dirt on people.

So I think he's upset that he wasn't able to make a deal to maybe hold the files over the head of people like Prince Andrew. Dude, what are you talking about here, play this? this clip. Now, Trump's pissed off, I think, because he looks at everything as leverage. And it's like, oh, we're going to give this away, this big treasure trope of stuff. At least let me look through it to see if we got any stuff on the guy in Columbia or if we got any more stuff on Prince Andrew. Maybe we can get something out of England. I don't know. You might look at it that way. And also, he also knows that the media will weaponize any kind of distraction away from the work that he's doing with this with this story which they chose not to do under

Biden and then you have larry kudlaw bring in brook rollins when they're on together on fox it's always like a really weird back and forth so i'll give you that warning right there and brook rollins is like you know one of the untold stories right now is how cheap things are Prices across the board are going down. We've made everything cheaper and the American people love us. This is actually the propaganda. They're spewing on Fox. And I feel like the more they go down this path and just treat their viewer as just absolutely stupid,

you're seeing a massive backlash here. Let's play this clip. Apart from solving eggs, and by the way, grocery prices are being solved too. Tell me about this SNAP program, the need for reform, waste, fraud, and abuse. Why is it we have still 42 million people up there? What's you going after over at USDA? Well, hello, my best friend Larry. It's so great to be on.

Beautiful, chilly night here at the White House. But, yeah, first, the president on eggs, that conversation I was in, should we do plastic eggs? Should we not? He said, Brooke, we're not going to have plastic eggs at the Easter Egg roll at the White House. Go get the price of eggs down. And really, in almost 10 months, it's down 86% the price of eggs. But to your question, this president has been, as you know, because you know him so well, resolutely focused on making America more affordable again.

And Larry, one of the great untold stories is in just 10 months, almost everything does cost less. But Fox continues the propaganda line right here. And then you have one of the Fox hosts say, you know, one of the big things to come out of this meeting between Donald Trump and the Saudi crown prince is that they've agreed to invest another $1.1 trillion in the United States economy. Do you all realize that the entire GDP of Saudi Arabia is like $1 trillion? So they're not giving their entire GDP to the United States. This is quite literally all made up. This is all a scam. They're not giving a trillion dollars. They're not giving $500 billion.

They are doing business with Donald Trump's family company and the Trump organization, where they're doing billions of dollars in real estate deals and the like. And Trump's getting rich. But yeah, they're not investing a trillion dollars in the United States. Here to play this clip.

It's set the tone for some very generous announcements from the Saudi side. The Saudis now say their investment pledge in the United States will be increased to one trillion. million dollars over the next several years. The first part of that investment in infrastructure projects like the 14.2 billion the Saudi spent with G.E. Varnova, the project will build heavy-duty gas turbines and create 1,800 jobs in Greenville, South Carolina. By the way, they also claim Qatar

has invested a trillion dollars, and the entire GDP of Qatar is like $144 billion. Then you have Lindsey Graham on Fox. He's on The Hannity Show. And Lindsey Graham's like, ooh, I'm a can't wait to sue the government and get that taxpayer money because I've been emotionally damaged when special counsel Jack Smith issued a subpoena and got the digits to my phone in connection with a lawfully authorized subpoena that federal court said were okay in connection with a grant in connection with the criminal investigation into January 6th I'm going to sue for tens of millions of dollars. Lindsay Graham and the Republicans literally gave themselves a cause of action and then removed in the legislation any defenses that the government has against their lawsuits

so that they can make tens of millions of dollars because their phone numbers showed up in subpoenas related to the January 6th insurrection because they were involved in in speaking with Donald Trump around that time. Here's what Lindsay Graham says play this clip. And come after people like me. I'm not going to put up with this crap anymore. I'm going to sue. I'm going to sue the hell out of these people. How much you're going to sue them for? Tens of millions of dollars because I went to Fannie Willis in Atlanta, spent $1.2 million with that bullshit in Atlanta. Now I find out they tap, they spy on my phone records as a senator and

a private citizen, chairman of the Judiciary Committee in 2023. I'm going to sue. If you don't sue, they'll keep doing it. Don't run away from this, Republicans. Fight back. And then Fox sends one of its hosts to Charlotte, where there are protests, peaceful protests taking place in Charlotte based on Donald Trump, sending his Gestapo, the Border Patrol and ICE agents to terrorize and harass the communities there. It's like 20% of students are not going to school right now because they're terrified of the ICE Gestapo attacking them on the streets and raiding the stores. And so this reporter's like, the protest is getting dangerous right now. And it's like, you'll see like a frog dancing in the background, like a frog costume person dancing in the background. Here, play this clip.

Well, Sean, as the night goes on, this protest is growing. Things are getting more chaotic, more intense. And I gotta say, it's turned into an arguably dangerous situation. As you can see behind me right now, people have been going around hanging out of their cars. I mean, we're in the middle of the road right now. People are burning rubber. So if you guys see smoke at any point, that's what that is. And yeah, there are children here.

So we will see how it goes if the night goes on. Do you struggle with focus, productivity, or efficiency like I do? Maybe you have ADHD and are looking for tools to help you.

and Brett Baer interviews him. So Brett Baer actually asked a decent question here. So what's the timetable for the investment that like Saudi Arabia talks about? Like so when you say that they're bringing in a trillion dollars, assume it's true, what's the timetable when this money arrives? And even Treasury Secretary Bessent is like, well, I think we'd like to see it happen during his term. Like to see it happen during, when is this going to happen? What? It just made up. It just made up your play of this clip.

You talk about the other investments and the AI and the nuclear. What's the timetable for investments like that? When you hear one trillion, what are we thinking timetable? Well, I can tell you, the president's very keen for it to happen during his term. And we're already seeing a lot of it start to flow in. So when we talk about the investments, some of it's going to be for in buying the chips. We had someone in the Oval today who's a direct beneficiary of Saudi orders for power turbines. So I think the president is always in a hurry to help the American people, and he has conveyed that to the Saudis.

And then Brett Baer says, well, what do you say to people who want to know what the real number is? What's the real amount of investment that's being made in the United States? Can you tell us the real number? Decent question. Not a great question, but decent question. Treasury Secretary Scott Besson says, well, Donald Trump uses the number 20 trillion in terms of total investment. And I think those commitments are real.

Just think about that. The Treasury Secretary says, I think those commitments, commitments are real. Newsflash, narrator, they're not real. But you're just making stuff up. I think those commitments are real. Oh, because Donald Trump tells the truth about all of these things. If it was real, wouldn't we see a massive reduction in our deficit? But why is our deficit increasing year over year now more than it was under former President Biden?

If all of this investment money was flowing in, why does Trump say we have a liquidity issue when it comes to paying people's staff benefits? Oh, wait a minute, because Donald Trump's a liar. Here to play this clip. What do you say to folks who want to know a total number of all these investments that the president's bringing in, the tariffs that have been implemented and bringing in, do you have a big figure? Do you have a total number? Well, the president uses the number 20 trillion in terms of total investments. And I think that those commitments are real. And whether it's corporate investment, whether it's the Japanese trade deal, or they're going to put in $550 billion, whether it's the Korean trade deal with $350 billion,

whether it's, you know, Apple saying that they're going to reshore, I believe that they may be up to $500 billion. So it's investments like we've never seen. And just to put that in perspective, just to put in perspective, the entire Biden administration was $1 trillion, $1 trillion over four years, $250 billion the final year. And we've got many single investments that are bigger than the Biden administration took in in one year. So this is America's back.

The president's done that are great tax policy. So we're deregulating. We've got tax certainty and we're working on energy certainties. And you have Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent as part of his Kim Jong-un-esque propagandist approach goes, Oh, I think that Donald Trump would make a great Fed chair. He has such an exquisite understanding of monetary and macro and microeconomic policy. No, he does it. Donald Trump literally is bankrupted most of his companies in his life.

Casino after casino, bankrupt, bankrupt, bankrupt, this business. I think if there was a Guinness Book of Records for the most bankrupts, Donald Trump would win here play this clip. You're not taking that job. Brett, there are I think 340 million Americans now. I think I can safely say that I will not be the Fed chair. I think President Trump will make a great Fed chair. He has an open mind. He understands monetary policy better than a lot of people.

And then Brett Baer says, okay, but these 2,000 dividend checks, which are not coming this year, you claim you're going to give $2,000, I guess, of relief to the American people. Wouldn't that inherently be inflationary? And then Treasury Secretary Scott Besson is like, if we give people $2,000, I think they're going to save it. I don't think they're going to spend it. They'll say, you think they're going to save it while people are quite literally starving to death

in the United States, while people are psychologically tortured, living paycheck to paycheck right now, while people can't afford health care, while people can't afford anything. You think if you give them a $2,000 check, they're going to save it? You definitely, there's a reason why Trump's picked you. Here, play this clip.

And my prediction is the first quarter second quarter what we're going to see is we have brought the inflation down it is curving down and real income the other side of that equation is real income growth and we are going to see this from all this investment would a two thousand dollar tariff dividend check going to people be inflationary well there are a lot of things that are going to happen next year is that one of them and that could be one of them. And again, maybe we could persuade Americans to save that because a couple, one of the things that's going to happen next year is the Trump accounts. Every child who was born from January 1st for the next three years is going to get a government account that goes into

the stock market. So every American child born for the next three years starting January 1st is going to have that. They can take it out when they're 18. They're going to learn the power of pounding. And there's going to be a lot of financial literacy around that. And I think the reason that we saw kind of the disastrous election in New York is young people don't feel like they have a stake in the economy. So we want to go with stake in the economy. And then finally, you have Donald Trump's son randomly showing up on Fox saying that he's a very sane human being. Okay, sane. That's normally what sane human beings say. They go, I'm sane. I'm like a sane guy. Here, play this clip. Yeah, I was the first.

person. I'm no conspiracy theorist, right? I'm not the guy that's walking around with a tinfoil hat. In fact, I'm a very sane human being. You've known me for what, 25 years now, Martha?
