Starting point is 00:00:00 State regime media known as Fox News was collapsing live on air last night as Donald Trump is crashing everything in the United States and literally desecrating the White House. With zero self-awareness, the Fox hosts were talking about how hamburger helper is making a comeback as Americans can't afford groceries. I wonder why Americans can't afford groceries. Could it be because of Donald Trump? Watch what they were talking about here, play this clip. And last but not least, one trend and true brand is making a big comeback as consumers tighten their wallets. And here it is, hamburger helper. The mix of mac and cheese and ground beef is seeing a surge in sales. Then state regime media tried to normalize Donald Trump bulldozing the entire
Starting point is 00:00:46 east wing of the White House. And they would have these segments where it was like, and Obama built a basketball court. I think there's a difference between Obama drawing lines on the tennis court and turning it into a basketball court and Donald Trump literally bulldozing the east wing of the White House. You don't see the difference there. Here, play this clip. Liberals are waltzing themselves into peak derangement over the construction of Trump's big, beautiful ballroom. Hillary Clinton said, quote, it's not his house, it's your house, and he's destroying it. Gavin Newsom twirled in next, saying, quote, ripping apart the White House just like he's ripping apart the Constitution.
Starting point is 00:01:28 and Elizabeth Warren sent up a smoke signal. Nevermind that Barack Obama built his basketball court, Richard Nixon rolled in a bowling alley, and plenty of other presidents did a little home renovation of their own. But President Trump adds a taxpayer-free ballroom and suddenly the left's doing the meltdown mongo. Then you have Jesse Waters on state regime media saying, look, it's perfectly normal that Donald Trump keeps posting AI videos of himself,
Starting point is 00:01:55 making poops on people and dropping his feces on people and peaceful protesters. Jesse Waters and state regime media goes, Trump's a meme lord. That's what meme lords do. They post images of taking shits on people, I guess. Here, play this clip. Trump's a meme lord. He's strafing feces over everybody. And Democrats are like, ah, wasn't like a day ago.
Starting point is 00:02:21 They were like, we need to up our social media game. And they were like, Gavin's the man. He's crushing it on social media. I mean, I just, the president, I don't even know how to articulate this. The president of the United States is literally bulldozing the East Wing while posting AI videos of himself, taking craps on peaceful protesters' faces while we're in a government shutdown and while he's ordered the MAGA Republicans in the House not to even speak with Democrats, yet alone negotiate with them.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Going back to state regime media's North Korea style propaganda, Here you have the hosts talking about J.D. Vance potentially having sex with couches. Here, play this clip. Do you remember when he was running? It was like, ah, J.D. Vance, he's weird. He's weird. And actually, because I covered politics for Fox this past election, I was on the trail, and I got to interview J.D. Vance when they had started with this whole J.D. Vance is weird.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Yeah, they said he had sex with a couch. Yeah, that too, which was totally wrong. If you read the book, not what happened. But they were really on this weird thing. And this is just that all over again. listen to the noise. He is not weird. Does he have it? I think he's got right. He's got it. He's got it. All right. Time to bring on Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who now continues to move back the goalposts. And he's like, can I tell you when things are really going to be good?
Starting point is 00:03:39 Like maybe 2026 or actually 2027. 2027. Oh, didn't Donald Trump say on day one, groceries were going to be more affordable, everything was going to be cheaper, inflation was going to be removed. Wasn't that the promise? Oh, now you're saying 2027. Oh, God, it just then when's it going to be? 2032, 2040. When? When is it, folks?
Starting point is 00:04:04 Here, play this clip. Things look pretty good at home, huh? Larry, Larry, things look great. And they're good now. I think 2026, 27 are going to be great years because, you know, as you know, part of what's happening with the tax bill is the president's campaign. campaign promises, which he kept on no tax on tips, no tax in overtime, no tax in Social Security, and deductibility of auto loans for American cars. On the first three, working Americans have
Starting point is 00:04:36 kept their withholding the same. And you might recall, I'm also the IRS commissioner, so I can see what's going on at the IRS. And I can tell you that in the first quarter of the year, we are going to see substantial tax refunds for working Americans. That's the thing. They're all such con artist. But it's good that they have Jessica Tarlov on Fox, the only good host on Fox. And I think she really puts everything into the appropriate context. She's like, look, we're in the midst of a government shutdown. You even have Republicans in the House in the Jersey caucus saying, what the hell are you doing, Maga Mike? You're completely destroying our governor's race here in New Jersey. You're destroying our reelection chances in New Jersey. Like, what are you doing, Maga Mike? Our
Starting point is 00:05:22 farmers are losing their businesses our cattle ranchers are livid at donald trump for saying that he wants to get beef from argentina now and he built in a ballroom like what are you doing watch tarlov say it perfectly here play this clip okay so i'm going to do this part quickly because i don't want to end up in a reel that you're showing tomorrow and i'm not actually having a meltdown about the ballroom but i will say that it is nothing like any of the other renovations i mean his ballroom is almost double the size of the White House itself. And he's not using taxpayer dollars. He's using his own dollars, maybe, or the dollars of companies that want favorable treatment, like Google, Palantir, all with big contracts with him. But Trump and Caroline Levitt and the whole administration would rather that this
Starting point is 00:06:11 is what we're focused on. And it's really getting away from the real stories of the moment. We are in the midst of a government shutdown. The Republican caucus from New Jersey wrote to Mike Johnson saying, you've got to make a short-term deal. Our constituents cannot handle these ACA premium hikes. Our farmers are losing their businesses. No soybeans coming out of America. We bail out Argentina, and then Argentina gets the contract. That's what those texts.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Remember what Scott Besson and Brooke Rollins? And just before we came on air, the National Cattlemen's Beef Association said, Cattlemen and women cannot stand behind President Trump while he undercuts the future of family farmers and ranchers by importing Argentinian beef. Those are the stories of what, is happening in America today.
Starting point is 00:06:53 That is how Donald Trump's administration is hurting everyday Americans, most of whom voted for him. So the ballroom, it is a monstrosity, but I am choosing to talk about the shutdown and what's happening to our ranchers and our farmers. Yeah, and Jesse, so too are Americans and Trump himself, actually, who is also talking about the shutdown and the Democrats' refusal, he's just building on the site. He can actually do multiple things at one time. And they bring on Mark Wayne Mullen, this Mago Republican from Oklahoma.
Starting point is 00:07:21 And he tries to compare the military invasions by National Guard forces into Democratic cities. He's like, it's like the Civil Rights Act. When the National Guard needed to protect people's civil rights, that's just like why you need the National Guard now to protect ICE agents, disappearing Americans, citizens and non-citizens, but citizens also off the street and sending them to concentration. It's like ICE is involved in a civil rights movement. is what the MAG Republicans are going.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Here, play this clip. Look, I'm looking at the people who are gathered around in this video and in many others that we see. You know, they're willing to get physical with these agents. And you want to know why it looks like they set down with so many people. Tom Homan has told me. And from DHS, their representatives have told me that they have to have larger numbers now
Starting point is 00:08:15 because of the physicality that's pressed upon them. Your last quick word. Which, once again, this makes us. the point why President Trump needs to deploy these National Guard members, even though I hate it for disrupting the National Guard members themselves, there is a federal role, and we have seen this to the Civil Rights movements all the way with JFK, LBJ. We've seen it repeat in history before. National Guard has been used to protect federal agents and federal property in time of disturbance. This is why there probably has to be a larger deployment of National Guard to protect
Starting point is 00:08:49 federal agents from doing their job or to be able to let them do their job. Let me ask you something. Do you struggle with focus, productivity, or efficiency like I do sometimes? Maybe you have ADHD and are looking for tools to help you.

It's just going to make it such a grand place.
Starting point is 00:10:47 We needed a golden ballroom. And this is always so normal. The history of the White House. It's presidents demolishing it and building ballrooms. Okay, that's never happened before. The only things that have happened is someone added a tennis court. Somebody added a swimming pool. They changed the air conditioning unit.
Starting point is 00:11:09 By the way, when all of that took place, guess what? Congress was involved. The preservation and historic commission of capital planning was involved. It went through a process. It wasn't just a president behaving as a dictator, sending bulldozers. By the way, not using union workers either and just demolishing the White House with zero transparency and then what private businesses are paying for this as part of a quid pro quo. Now, this has never happened before and stop treating the American people like we're stupid.
Starting point is 00:11:43 That's the thing with these MAGA Republicans. I guess they're used to a lot of their constituents. You know, I don't know. Like maybe they all have MAGA-Mush brains. But most Americans, we know that, no, we know that the White House doesn't get demolished in prior presidencies. Just stop the bullshit. Just stop it. Behave like grownups.
Starting point is 00:12:01 I mean, all these sociopathic human beings, like vile sociopath. I don't know how to describe it. Dumb people. Here, play this clip. FDR installed a screen. swimming pool, Obama adds a basketball court, etc., etc., etc. What's your opinion of the renovation and all the fuss about it? Right. Well, first of all, look at where the fuss is coming from. I mean, you just showed the view for good to say. I mean, those women show up every day. And if President
Starting point is 00:12:29 Trump wakes up with a pulse, they're angry. They're always angry. And they've always shown hatred towards Donald Trump, no matter what he does when he solves world peace in the Middle East, they're angry because Trump did it. And so that's no surprise. Look, I was sure. you pointed out, previous presidents added the Oval Office. The West Wing itself was an add-on to the original building, and nobody's complaining about that. And look at what Trump is adding on. He's adding on a ballroom for things like state dinners. Stuart, I've been to state dinners before under presidents going back to President Obama, President Trump, President Biden. And when you go to a state dinner, this is when a president or a prime minister from one of our great allies
Starting point is 00:13:07 around the world comes to Washington, and you hold a grand event for them. It's done outside. the White House in a tent right now, Stewart. That's how it gets done because there's not enough room in the White House to host that event. So imagine the head of a, you know, some maybe foreign country. They're coming from a presidential palace in their country. And they come to the Grand White House and they walk outside in the rain and go to a tent. That's what President Trump is renovating, adding a ballroom. That's going to be a grand place that only for maybe two years he gets to enjoy.
Starting point is 00:13:38 But every president after President Trump will be able to enjoy and host event. appropriately in this new ballroom and paid for by private funds as well paid for privately let's see if any of those hosts go to any events at the new ballroom because it's going to be beautiful they will the White House is going to look even more beautiful after it's completed and they'll still hate President Trump even though they'll say how nice it is speaking of which you then have Magger Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville who goes Obamacare the Affordable Care Act wrecked health care. There's been nothing worse than our health care system than the Affordable Care Act.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Affordable Care Act's popular. Does it have its problems? Yes. Do I personally prefer universal health care? But Maga Republicans, you don't support universal health care. ObamaCare and the Affordable Care Act with the subsidies have at least made health care accessible. But all y'all want to do is rip health care away from people and kill them. That's your plan. Your plan is pre-Oabomacare, which is people die. Insurance companies can discriminate and pre-existent. in conditions, prescription drug prices are so high, they're not affordable. So like, and you're not putting forward a plan. And so you attack people's health care, ObamaCare wrecked everything.
Starting point is 00:14:54 No, it didn't. Y'all wrecked everything. Y'all wrecked everything. Here, play this clip. A lot of this is about Obamacare. It's been a disaster for 12 years. We have a really health care system that's, that's on the verge of collapse because of the expense of the high cost.
Starting point is 00:15:09 And why is that? Because the government has subsidized all this for, years and now the chickens are coming home to roost we have no money and so uh they own this they pass this obamacare nonsense they said it's affordable it could be done it can't be done we've got to get some kind of health care system that's going to work in this country and the parent american taxpayers don't need to be paying uh for health care for illegal aliens uh but they've just destroyed it from inside out liz it's a disaster let me be very clear we should have universal health care the The Republicans don't support that.
Starting point is 00:15:41 That's socialism, every other country. Argentina is universal health care. We're giving $40 billion to Argentina, what, the bolster their health care? Canada, I mean, across the world, America is the only country where health care is not a right. Like, what the hell are we doing here? And how do we pay for it? Tax billionaires more.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Tax billionaires more. Just think about how much billionaires have made recently while American people are something. Tax them more, tax rich people more. I'm fine with that to say it. I mean, it's, well, that shouldn't be a controversial proposition. They'll still have 10 private jets. They need 11. They need 11 private jets while you can't afford your rent.
Starting point is 00:16:18 No, F that. F that. Then you have Maga Republican Congresswoman Claudia Tenney also saying, Obamacare's been the worst. Play this clip. It has failed more triumphantly than Obamacare and especially in the state of New York where we're spending over 230 million taxpayer dollars on the so-called essential plan. And that's laundering federal.
Starting point is 00:16:39 money in to make sure that we cover people who aren't eligible. We're hurting our seniors. We're hurting our veterans. We're hurting our own taxpayers. We're looking at the horrible potential of a Marxist, communist anti-Semite who's talking about government roaring grocery stores, government taking over the means of production, huge tax increases to one of the, actually, the highest tax state right now in the nation and pulling and really just causing a greater demise in New York. You know, this is a real serious issue. I know Kevin faces redistricting. He also has a tough situation in California. But right now is not the time to let the Democrats cause even more harm to the American people.
Starting point is 00:17:18 And then just so you can see just the audacity, like the brazeness of these MAGA Republicans. So you have MAGA Republican Rick Scott, the senator from Florida, who was involved in the biggest Medicare fraud, criminal fraud in U.S. history, $1.7 billion Medicare fraud. invoke the fifth, 75 times 100, refused to answer questions to avoid criminal responsibility. The company pled guilty. This is how this guy got rich, a criminal company that pled guilty, essentially, to the largest Medicare fraud in American history. And he got a golden parachute, made hundreds of millions of dollars off that company. And then went into politics. And he's like, I'm going to be the one to fix it. Dude, you're literally waste fraud and abuse. When they talk about waste, fraud, and abuse. It's you. Here, play this clip. We can fix this, but the fix is fixing
Starting point is 00:18:15 Obamacare. Democrats don't want to fix Obamacare. I want to fix Obamacare. I've built the largest hospital company in the country.
