Dan Bondi, Cash Patel, they warned us. Things were about to get ugly. And indeed, they are. Unbelievable what is being discovered at this moment. I can't wait to bring all of this to you here on the Trish Regan show today. A very big day indeed, as we learn more and more and more about what was really going on, the violations, frankly, of individual rights that the Biden, FBI, and DOJ were willing to push forward. I mean, it's absolutely unbelievable. This is bigger than Watergate. No one's talking about it for some reason. No, no, no, no. Only to say that somehow we don't have it right,

that it wasn't really wiretapping of U.S. senators. No, no, no. It was just gathering of all kinds of metadata. Big metadata. Welcome to the program. Make sure you subscribe. We are all over that story as we see more and more FBI agents being purged, being fired, moved off the job because of concerns

that they didn't do things the right. way. And I'm not just talking about Timothy Teboldt, whom you're going to learn a lot more about in today's show, but many others as well. Meanwhile, Leticia James, whoa, she's struggling right now. Oh my goodness. She just did her first appearance, her very first appearance in a big rally crowd since the indictment. And who you can tell she's really, really worried. She didn't misquote scripture this time, but close to it. She's really coming unhinged. I can't wait to show you this one. Plus, more problems for her, as it is uncovered, that there is. documents suggesting this alleged mortgage fraud may be even worse than anticipated,

along with allegation she was somehow harboring a criminal, her niece? It's getting ugly. And the shutdown continues. Here we are, and we're still in it. And it's getting ugly. You got nearly 5,000 federal workers that are being laid off from agencies like HUD, from agencies like the IRS. I know you don't feel too bad.

And the agency, the EPA, okay? they're all getting tossed. And Mike Johnson isn't having it. Like, these guys don't want to negotiate seriously, to his point, look what they're asking for. In their legislation, their counterproposal on the CR to keep the lights open, this is what they want to do. They want to spend $24.6 million of your hard-earned dollars as a taxpayer for climate resilience in Honduras. They want to spend $13.4 million for civic engagement in Zimbabwe. They want to send $3.9 million for LGBTQ.

I-plus democracy grants and the Western Balkans. What is the I-plus? What has been 2.9 million? Is that a new? Do we just add another alphabet letter? I mean, I don't know what you guys are going to do. You're going to have to reinvent the alphabet because you're going to run out of letters at some point.

There's only, what, 26 letters in the alphabet, and now we get an I in there with the Q. It's news to me. Ooh. Okay, Donald Trump's reacting to his magazine cover. Apparently he's not too happy with it. We'll discuss. And Charlie Kirk, within the hour, is going to be, of course, after his death. unfortunately awarded the Medal of Freedom. It's actually his birthday today. Happy birthday, Charlie,

who would have been 32 years old, just one of a remarkable, remarkable guy. I miss him every day. Welcome, welcome to the Trish Riegan show. We begin on news out of the FBI. I'm telling you guys, I'm not kidding. Dan Bongino wasn't kidding. Cash Patel wasn't kidding. They warned us more stuff would be coming, and here we are looking at numerous agents having been fired, but also more and more stuff coming out every day. It's unlike anything I don't think we've ever seen in our generation. You can go back to sort of the co-intill times of the Hoover FBI, and you can go back to what the FBI did in terms of tracking and tracing and spying upon Martin Luther. or King, Jr., but I don't think we've ever quite in our lifetimes, or at least in my lifetime,

seen anything, anything like what the Biden administration, which, by the way, was a continuation of the Obama administration, did to Donald Trump and anyone associated with Donald Trump, including, by the way, Charlie Kirk, who's being honored today, post-humorously, obviously, but including to organizations that stood for conservative values. I want to go to Chuck Grassley, who's been speaking on this, and he's demanding a wider and wider investigation. He's come up with a lot of fascinating, fascinating documents, courtesy of whistleblowers.

It's both Grassley here and Santa Ron Johnson, who was spied upon his communications intercepted by the FBI under one Joe Biden, let's listen in. Solicitation of these telephone records, which I think emphasizes the political weaponization that was behind all this effort. And we're still getting more information, but we've released some records today,

and I'll let Senator Johnson take over from here, and then each one of you colleagues can join in when you want to, whatever you want to say. First of all, I want to thank Senator Grassley. It is because of his relentless advocacy for whistleblowers that a lot of this information is surfacing right now. We wouldn't know about the list of 100 Republican entities that were targeted by Jack Smith's Arctic Frost investigation.

I don't think we know about this as well. So we need whistleblowers. I think Dan Bongino and folks of the FBI, they don't know where all the records are hidden. They still don't. They're not necessarily getting 100% cooperative. But this is outrageous what has happened. I just want to give you a timeline of this.

I think you've already got the update sheet that shows the number of members of Congress that were targeted. Representative Kelly, Sanders Graham, Haggerty, Holly, Sullivan, Tuberville, myself, Senator Lummison, Blackburn. This memo was dated September of 2023. To put it all into context, the Marla... I mean, think about that. Like, a year before the election, they were going. Oh, and after all then, that's actually a really important sort of timeline to consider. And he's going to get into the timeline, which is just bonkers.

Watch. A parade occurred in August of 2022. Jack Smith announced the indictments against President Trump in August of 2023. So this is almost two months later, they're casting this net, this fishing expedition against members of the Senate in the House? Again, I've been investigating this with Senator Grassley. This doesn't surprise me, but it should shock every American. Yeah.

Socks me. The Biden administration has done. By the way, this is the first time I was targeted by the FBI. Under the Obama administration, the same thing happened to both Senator Grassley and I as part of the Foreign Influence Task Force. we were giving a briefing to try and convince us that the

Hunter Biden laptop was no big deal. Basically, they're trying to throw us off the track. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So this is major corruption. This being revealed inside the Obama and Biden, Department of Justice of the FBI. And I'll turn it over to, I guess, Senator Hagerty,

who's, you know, one of the individuals, again, none of us were subject to targets of this investigation. There's no predicate. There's no reason for this other than efficient expedition, which again should outrage and shock every American. It does. It outraged. It shocks me. It's why I keep saying, like, I'm a dog with a bone on this one. I'm not going to let it go. And you're going to know every little nook and cranny of this story. Together, we're going to solve this because this can't actually happen either on both sides.

You just can't do this stuff. Here's the memo that came from the FBI. So they've got eight senators and one House representative that we know of. I mean, and plus the near, 100 organizations, including Charlie Kirk's turning point, that they were also investigating under the pretense of, oh, well, they're going to steal the election. They're going to take it out from under. That's why we got to make sure that we go after those guys after J6. I mean, of course, you're relying on Nancy Pelosi's daughter's footage from J6. The CNN played in a loop and ABC played in a loop. I mean, she was the documentary filmmaker who conveniently got invited in that day. and they took that ball and they ran with it as fast and hard as they could.

So we know that they were collecting metadata. We can't say wiretapping because they're going to come after. That's what they've made this story. They're like, oh, there's no story there because it was not wiretapping. How dare Josh Hawley say it was wiretapping? It was the interception of private communications and wait until you see what we've got. But just to keep you up to speed in case you're just joining the Trish Riegan show, we got a guy, Jack Smith, who was the special prosecutor.

and who was trying to go after Donald Trump for everything and anything specifically trying to basically compromise our entire, quote, democracy. They don't want to say republic. They say democracy. Okay, I always get a bunch of comments from you guys saying, it's a republic, it's a republic, it's a republic, I know it's a republic, but, you know, this is their line. Okay, so Jack Smith thinks that Donald Trump and his cronies are going to take down democracy. So therefore, he is entitled to go after them with everything he's got.

Oh, except you can't actually, because there is actually a whole, like, about this, a whole bunch of laws. And so now you've got 18 senators, including Graham, including Grassley, including Johnson, including Blackburn. They all, including Cynthia Loomis, they are all out for blood and they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, this has never happened in our entire political career. You got Cynthia Loomis saying, I want to know like what my own rights are as an individual separate from the fact that I am a sitting U.S. senator. And so they are furious and they are mad, 18 of them coming forward and demanding a. massive investigation. They want criminal prosecutions into those that initiated this.

Here is the quote that Lindsay Graham gave to Fox the other night when Jack Smith was looking at phone records and that of other senators. I think he broke the law and I think it needs to be held accountable. And I think those who brought this about need to pay and pay big. And you know who that's going to mean? I think, I think it's going to mean team Biden. Yes, team Biden. By the way, we knew this was going to get ugly. Did we not? Because my friend Dan said, said so not too long ago. In fact, I want to take you back to what he said about eight, 10 weeks ago on Fox on my former colleague Sean Hannity's show and Bongino then tweeted this out with the words, bookmark this. Well, we bookmarked it and we're sitting back and watching it

all unfold. Let me ask you about, are you going to be looking into when Cash and Pam, any potential collusion between the DOJ, Letitia James, the novel legal theory of Alvin Bragg, or Nathan Wade or Fannie Willis, and the DOJ. Is that something? Has anything come up? Is there any way to determine whether or not evidence was destroyed in any of these cases? Well, there's always a way to determine that. I don't want to comment on that specific case right now for a reason.

I don't want to get ahead of the Department of Justice on that. But I want to say this. You know, the FBI obviously has the public corruption portfolio. And, yes, if you are a corrupt politician out there, if you are engaged in behavior, you know what you're doing, we're going to find you. I promise. No one is going to get off the days of selecting and putting your, you know, partisan bias on and taking care of your friends. Those days are over. You know what, Sean?

I don't have any friends. I don't want any friends. Well, maybe outside of you. I don't care. I didn't come here for the money. I didn't come here to make, I know. You don't go there for the money. I can tell people after sure.

I don't give a damn about friends. I don't have any friends. I don't want any friends. I got my wife. I got you and I got a small crew of people. So I don't need any friends. If you're a politician, get a dog.

We're coming for you. That'll help. The reason why this is so important, though, what he was saying there, aside from the friends thing, hey, Dan, I consider you a friend. I hope you consider me a friend too. But anyway,

Aside from that, what he was basically saying is we're coming for you. And it doesn't matter how many friends you have, they're protecting you. So that was sort of a direct shot, for example, at Comey. Remember Comey had his son-in-law working in the Eastern Virginia office? Right? And what happened? They got rid of the U.S. attorney. Eric Sieber, who was there?

They replaced Eric with none other than Lindsey Halligan. And Lindsay Halligan, for my sources, is actually cleaning house there. As we speak, she fired one prosecutor just within the last 36 hours who was believed to not be on board with the Comey indictment. So anyone not on board with the indictment of Letitia James or James Comey or perhaps the Bolton one that's coming down the pipe? By the way, Biden's team started that one. Or perhaps the Brennan one, we're going to get to that that's coming. I mean, there's a lot coming, okay? There's a lot coming.

And then we got to get back to just exactly how did they think that this was okay? I want to show you this. So there's a guy named Timothy Teeboldt, and he was at the FBI. He was actually in the Washington office, and he had, he had been, like, charged with, like, looking into dicey cases before. He was actually the guy who was looking into the Hunter Biden laptop. Yeah, he was the guy that was looking into the Hunter Biden laptop while the 51x spooks were telling us, no, the FBI isn't looking into this laptop. Well, he was. And I guess he, you know, he was a party man, right? Like, he was, per what I've read, and what I've read, and what I've, heard, he was kind of going along for the ride. And so he, he didn't step up to the plate and say,

hey, guys, your memo in Politico is wrong. They knew it was wrong. Well, the metadata on the document that was Arctic Frost, that document actually shows, because you can see who saves it, when they save it, that it was created by one Timothy T-bolt. And it had been saved by one Timothy T-Bull. Now, the reason this is important, you guys, is because you're sitting there going, wait a second. What is this Arctic Frost investigation and why were they out there getting the data intercepting the communications of eight sitting U.S. senators as well as a congressional representative as well as how many other people we don't know, right? Why were they doing that? They were doing this in the name of Arctic Frost. They said they had the authorization because they had opened this case.

it had been opened in August of 22. I believe it was August of 22, and it had been opened by one Timothy Teebolt. So he was the FBI agent in charge of this whole thing. He opens it up, right? He opens it up. And because he's opened it up, he's saying, okay, I get the right to do this, that and the other, except that he didn't, except that he didn't at all. Forgive me, it was November of 2022. So in November of 2022, now we're talking like a ways after J6, it dawns on them that, Donald Trump is running again. So we better get into high gear, right? And as soon as Donald Trump says he's running again, they start getting into high gear. And that's when they initiate Arctic Frost courtesy of this one agent who's no longer there, who has since resigned from the FBI.

So this is something that Grassley brought up, the fact that it had been saved repeatedly. Here we go. According to his testimony on February 3, 2025, he said the author of this document for Arctic Frost was Timothy Tebowl, and it also said it was last modified by Timothy Tebowl. And he said the document attached to the email list, the author and modifier, as you guessed it, Teabult. So the document itself is titled Arctic Frost. It adds President Trump as the criminal subject in the investigation and the problem.

The problem is you can't do that. You can't do that because there's this little thing called no self-approval rule. You know, you've got to like actually go to a judge and get a warrant if you're going to be gathering the metadata on somebody's phone, meaning you're getting their call logs, you know who they're talking to where they are when they're talking to them and how long they're talking to them for. So there's section 3523. This is the FBI's Domestic Investigations and Operations Guide, and it is the no self-approval. rule, which states an official who approves an investigation action, especially opening or closing of a case, may not approve their own work. Instead, independent review is required. So who did the

independent review? Apparently, there was no independent review. Apparently, this guy, Tim DeBolt, comes along and says, I'm going to do this. I'm going to do that. And I'm going to do this. And apparently, it all just comes into place. So this is a huge problem. And this is why they're saying, this is such a total violation of anything we've ever seen. I mean, again, you've got to go back to, it's known as the Coen-Tel sort of error, right, when you had the big FBI going after everyday American citizens. Here's the guy I'm talking about. So he's no longer there, but he is and has been facing a lot of scrutiny from Republicans, certainly going back to his role in suppressing, right, the FBI's Hunter Biden investigation. We wouldn't know a lot more about that if it hadn't been for

Tony Bulinsky, who was the partner right of Hunter Biden at the time. We wouldn't know a lot about that if it wasn't for the whistleblowers that came out and told us everything. But this guy, he was the one in charge of that investigation and we didn't know all the things that we should have. And then he's the guy that basically put forward Arctic Frost named Donald Trump as somebody who was the criminal subject of that. And then he's the one that allowed for, allegedly the spying on all of these different groups and all of these different senators all in the name of preserving the democracy, right? Like that, I mean, hey, if you can, if you can use that and they just kept going back to, we have to, we have to, we have to, because of J6, if we don't do this,

then there's the threat that he's going to take us down. So this is bad. This is like really, really, really bad. If they're out there spying without warrants, like, I mean, I don't even know what to tell you. I think that guy's going to go to jail. I think Christopher Ray, if he was involved in this, could find himself in jail. And I want to know how high up the food chain does it go. I mean, is this involving the lights of, I don't know, Tony Blinken or, you know, Brandon or, I don't know. I don't know who's involved. I think that's what we get to get to the bottom of. We know Teeboldt signed off on this. We know that the people that were involved in the spying, they have since been fired. Cash and Dan made that very clear the other day. But Dan Bongino

had to go in and brief all of these senators and say, hey, guess what? They've been spying on you for the last couple of years. I mean, it's totally wild. And Lindsey Graham, who was one of the ones affected, is livid. He's furious and he's demanding, demanding answers and a criminal investigation. Watch. crosses a line between the Justice Department being independent from the executive branch? I think our Justice Department, in the hands of Biden, crossed every line there is to cross. I think within three days of announcing he was going to run for president in 2024. He did that in 2020. But what about Trump?

He had 91 indictments. What about that? Now, I think the grand jury is going to take care of this. But you didn't care any about this. You didn't care that Lettisa James made up charges that. No one's ever faced. But Senator Biden never publicly called for Trump to be indicted. He had 90.

Biden regretted that they didn't do it before the election. Jack Smith surveilled my phone records that made other senators. Jack Smith introduced his brief against Trump, October the 24th, before the 2024 election, violating every protocol just to politicize the election. So this may bother you that people are being held accountable. It doesn't bother me one damn bit. Doesn't bother me one damn bit either. It doesn't bother you.

No, I want them held accountable every single step of the way. And I'm sick of what about Trump. What about Trump? What about Trump? Oh, this is somehow payback because Trump is going on. I mean, what the heck went on? We're supposed to roll over and play dead and say, oh, we don't care? Oh, it just matter that, you know, people had their phone records tapped.

It doesn't matter that nearly 100 organizations, including my latest. friend Charlie Kirk who was gunned down because of this radicalism on the left. I'm sorry. No, it all matters. And we're going to get to the bottom of it. So Jack Smith be damned. It's all coming out. Jackie Boy, you're going to be in trouble too, okay? You cannot be out there doing this. Again, collecting the phone records on eight sitting U.S. senators that we know about. I mean, how much more? Because, you know, remember when Dan went on Fox and Friends, Bonino and he said, hey, there was this room. They told us about this room and there were all these documents. they're still finding it. They're relying on whistleblowers to come forward and tell them everything,

which is, by the way, how the Cointel program was also disclosed. You had, none other than brave whistleblowers coming forward and admitting all of this stuff. Because you see, you can't do this. You've got the wiretap act. You've got the computer fraud act. You've got state privacy and eavesdropping laws. You can't do this. In the name of democracy, you're going to have to actually get something like a court order or subpoena, a Patriot Act letter, or a FISA warrant, and they didn't have any of this stuff. But you know, know, they don't care. They have a whole different way of playing. It's a whole new ballgame, right? With them, they just figure they can do whatever they want. And, oh, maybe Donald Trump is stupid and he won't

catch on to it. But he's smarter than he looks, okay? Listen, Comey, he started it all with the Russia, Russia, Russia. I mean, well, if you really want to go back in time, Hillary Clinton started it all. Because Hillary Clinton was the one who bought and paid for the opposition research, courtesy of her law firm, Perkins Coy, that decided to hire Fusion GPS. You know, they figure, you know, you can just whittle it down. You get layer after layer after layer, make it more and more opaque so nobody really knows where it's coming from. Fusion GPS goes out and hires Christopher Steele. You know the Joe, right? The ex-British spy who was hanging out in the UK, he calls some of his ex-spy friends in Russia, and they were probably like, ha-ha-ha, you know, let's cook up

something good. And so they did. They cooked up something really good. And then they used that you see, to then get a FISA warrant to spy on Carter Page. They also did these quote unquote bumps. We've talked about this, George Papadopoulos, remember him, he's been on the show. George kept getting quote unquote bumped, which enabled them to then tap and wiretapped, like actually wiretap the conversations of George Papadopoulos, who was working on two campaigns. He actually had worked on the Ben Carson campaign and they were tapping him then, which leads George to believe that they just wanted more intel into the whole

Republican circuit at the time. And then when he went to work for Donald Trump, they tapped him there again. And, you know, the whole time, you know, Comey had one objective and one objective only, and that was to get basically a special investigator, a special prosecutor to look into these quote-unquote allegations about Russia, Russia, Russia, even though they knew that they were fake. I mean, that's the killer here. Like, they knew that they were fake. They had that meeting. Tulsi told us all about it, right? With Obama. and Obama said, okay, here's a deal. We're going to try and figure out how the Russians interfered in this election

and we're going to pin it on the Russians. And Donald Trump is not going to be a legitimate president. To quote Jimmy Carter, right? This is how it all went down. And so Comey, the whole time, he knew what he was doing, for goodness sakes. I mean, here, this is a great example of it. Comey talking out of both sides of his mouth. Now indicted, by the way.

Wow, there's this little thing called tape. Director Comey, have you ever been an anonymous source in news reports about matters relating to the Trump investigation or the Clinton investigation? Never. Have you ever authorized someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports about the Trump investigation or the Clinton investigation? No, I needed to get that out into the public square. And so I asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo. with a reporter. Didn't do it myself for a variety of reasons, but I asked him to because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel. And there we have it. Yeah, there we have it.

So take a look at this, you guys. This is from some of the records, okay, newly released records that show us just exactly what Comey's interaction was with the media. He wanted, basically, he wanted this information to get out there. So what did he do? He allowed for, the hiring. It wasn't just his friend. He wasn't just calling up his friend from Columbia University, but rather his friend was on the payroll. Okay?

This guy, Professor Richmond at Columbia University, a law professor, a close friend of Comey, they met while they were working in the Southern District of New York together. And the New York Times article contained several quotes attributed to one professor Daniel Richmond, which defended Comey's decisions to make a unilateral public statement. about the mid-year exam investigation, et cetera. But basically, fast forward here,

let's go to the part in yellow here, if we could. And what you see is that Comey hired him because he wanted basically a media liaison. Okay, the investigation revealed Comey also hired Richmond so Comey could discuss sensitive matters, including classified information with someone outside of the FBI's regular leadership. Comey also used Richmond as a liaison

to the media. So he hired a flack to try to get his version of the story out in the media. You understand how messed up this is. Considering that his version of the story was that Donald Trump was some kind of pervert who was over there in Russia doing all. I mean, it's a wild story, right? I read that thing before it was out in the media because it had circulated among some journalists. I saw it. And I was like, well, this is a bunch of trash. Like you can tell that this is opposition research. How is it our own FBI director? James Comey can't tell that it's opposition research. Oh, because he knows its opposition research. He knew it the entire time and he did not care. Just like, just like they knew that that was Hunter Biden's laptop being investigated by

Timothy Teevold. But they didn't care because there are a whole bunch of scumbags that just wanted to keep on winning and winning and winning and winning. And they were clinging to power however they could. Illegally, perhaps. And this is what they're going to be going down for. I mean, consider, you know, Brennan, for example, consider Anthony Blinken, who was our former Secretary of State. Oh, boy, he must be loving this Israel deal, right? You know, oh my gosh, they tried and yet they couldn't get to first base and then Donald Trump comes in and what do you know? Anyway, Brennan right now, I think he's getting nervous because, you see, if you go back and again, these documents have come out, I want you to see this email. This is from John Brennan.

and it says, okay, Michael, add my name to the list. Mike Morrell, the deputy director of the CIA at the time. Good initiative. Thanks for asking me to sign on. The question from Mike Morrell, deputy director of the CIA. I mean, the CIA is doing this because they want to help the Biden campaign. He writes, John, can I add your name to this list? We'll be adding Leon Panetta, Sue Gordon, Jay Johnson, George, Lisa Monaco,

Mike Rogers today and working on adding Dan Coates, Mike Rogers and Tom Bossert and lots of other I see career folk trying to give the campaign, particularly during the debate on Thursday, a talking point to push back on Trump on this issue. Woo! Okay, that's like really, really, really messy stuff. So this exists. We now know this was all politically motivated. Okay.

So they made up this idea that somehow it was misinformation to talk about Hunter Biden's laptop, that that was just brought to you courtesy of Rudy Giuliani and the Russians. But in fact, what did they know? They knew that it was actually under investigation. That guy Timothy Teebald, I was just telling you about he was doing the investigation, although they had kicked gloves during the entire time. It was under investigation. And yet they chose to lie about it so directly, so flagrantly to the American people.

And then if you dared to talk about it, you were the one who. who was in trouble. You were the one who was going to lose your Twitter account. You were the one who was spreading misinformation and disinformation because, you know, they said it was the way it was. And yet Brennan, John Brennan, he thinks he's not in trouble. Are you kidding me? Former head of the CIA, I think he's freaking out in real time as we speak. Here he is a couple days ago trying to say, I'm innocent. I didn't do anything wrong on MSNBC. He doth protest too much, I think. I don't see any case against me.

I have looked back on all of my actions and decisions, and with John Durham, the special counsel, and others that have looked at what we did, it was certainly consistent with our legal authorities and with the laws. So I don't know what they're referring to there. Individuals who used to work in the government, even if their security clearances were revoked,

they could be subpoenaed. They could be called to provide testimony in support of whatever allegations they have. I just, I don't see a case there. You don't see a case there? I mean, what do you guys think? Do you see a case there? I mean, because I see a case there.

I mean, if you're just like knowingly lying like that, I mean, is that considered freedom of speech? You just like decide to perpetuate a whole bunch of lies and you're like, ahead of the CIA? You get the deputy CIA director. Apparently it was Anthony Blinken's idea. who then went on to be Secretary of State. I mean, I think like blatantly lying to the American people, like, that's kind of a problem. And then you think about the fallout that came from under that, right? Or out of that.

I mean, tons of fallout. So what have we been through? I mean, we've been through Russia, Russia, Russia. Then we went through the, well, the Wuhan virus that wasn't from that lab in Wuhan, right? Except that it was. So that was something. And then we went through the Hunter Biden laptop. top that wasn't, except, oh yeah, it was. And then we went through Trump, and we've been going through

this, Trump is evil, he's a dictator, he's just awful. And that's continued to go on with TDS on steroids. But we also went through a time where they tried to actually shut down anyone and everyone who thought differently than them. And that's actually the really dangerous part. I mean, that was the really scary part if you think about it, guys, because if you were a Trump supporter, you were fair game. You were fair game for cancel culture. Look, I went through it, right? I mean, I'm living, breathing proof. And believe me, it's way better over here on the other side where I don't have to go through middle management or have my, my editorials looked at. I just get to say exactly what I think in real time with no scripts and no teleprompters. You know it, baby, right?

it's much more exciting and a whole lot more fun over here. But, you know, look, I can take it. Like, this is my job, right? Like, I need to have an opinion. It's part of, it's, it's, it's, it's my livelihood. But what about if you were just some poor, innocent guy or gal who voiced an opinion, they were going to cancel you? And by the way, people did get canceled. I mean, you know how many, I'm sorry, but like Nike was on a tear at one point. I mean, if you were a white man over the age of 40, forget about it, like after Black Lives Matter, it was cancel culture on steroids, and it was Trump combined with everything that they were like running the ball with. And that was a dangerous time for everyone. I mean, I think about it even, and I've told you guys the stories about my bank.

And yes, I've diversified into other banks, but I have one bank in particular that I've had a long time. And I'd never gotten so many calls from my bank. Like all of a sudden, I was the most popular person. They were calling me every other week, you know, with questions about my banking. And I'm like, this is sort of strange. This is really strange. And miraculously, all those calls stopped in November of this past year after Donald Trump was elected. So go figure. But this happened to a lot of people. I mean, my friend Dinesh DeSuzzo was actually debanked. He wasn't able to get a bank account. His wife had to open one in her name for them. Fine. But like, what the heck? Right. Like we've heard about some of the Trump family members not being able to get bank accounts. It was

nuts. It was absolutely positively. nuts. And why were they doing this? I'd like to know. I mean, I think we do know. I think we do know. I think that it was all about cancel culture. If you had shopped at Dick Sporting Goods, for goodness sakes, they were on to you. Oh, yeah. I mean, Bank of America, they reportedly were one of the ones that were turning over this data. Jamie Diamond got up at some CNBC thing and he's like, okay, enough is enough. This is getting a little bit crazy. You better believe it was crazy. But this is what they were doing. Okay. So we've got new legislation that's coming about. And I just want to tell you about it briefly. Four free markets. I encourage you to go there and check that out. The folks that

for free markets are thanking together with me, President Trump, for doing something about this because you can't live in a world where you can't even get a lousy bank account, okay? I'm sorry. Like, you know, just because you're a conservative, what? You're not allowed access to anything, not even the bank account, not even a checking account. Come on, give me a break. So we need this legislation to improve. We need this legislation to be real. We need this legislation to be helping and protecting every single American so that they have a path to prosperity. You're not going to cut off somebody's bank account just because of their politics, thank you very much, or their religion or anything else. I mean, we get certain freedoms here thanks to our U.S. Constitution, but it's going to

get written into the code, shall we, with some of these banks. So go check them out for free markets.com. They are dedicated to this. They're working with the president to make sure that we have more. We need more in terms of legislation. It is so incredibly important. Meanwhile, oh, did I tell you what's going on in Illinois today? Oh, it seems that the Illinois governor is looking for, oh, I don't know, a civil war. I mean, how else would you guys describe this? I mean, we've heard repeatedly how they're not going to go along with the Constitution. Brandon Johnson actually told us that.

The mayor of Chicago was like, I don't care. I don't care what the Constitution says. We're not going to allow ICE to actually arrest anyone. We're not going to participate in that. And they're not participating in it. In fact, when ICE officers were, under fire a couple of weekends ago, guess what? They got a call the new, the, the, the Chicago Police Department to go in and help. Brandon Johnson won't allow it. So you got that going on, which seems

kind of criminal in and in and of itself, you know, some person in need and the police can't even come and help because it's a nice officer, because it's a, you know, Homeland Security and that's a federal agency and that belongs to Donald Trump. And we hate Trump. So because we hate Trump, we can't actually help an officer in need. You got to be killing, kidding me. It is killing me. You've got to be kidding me. So the Chicago police, they don't like it very much, and they've been warning everybody, hey, listen, this is not going to be tolerated. And don't forget, these DHS officers, they're armed. And if you come after that, they're going to consider that a threat on their life and they would be right to do so. So you get all kinds of chaos going on in Chicago right now.

Donald Trump said, okay, I'm going to send the National Guard. You got Pritzker, who is the governor and has presidential aspirations. Let me just say. He doesn't really look the part, but who am I? To complain. Little, little big Pritzker, who Donald Trump likes to fondly say

was not smart enough for the family business, so they put him into politics. His family owns the Hyatt Hotels. Very wealthy, billionaire, Governor Pritzker. And he's saying something in this particular clip that I want to play for you that I find pretty darn disturbing

because it sounds like he thinks he has the right, to go after federal officers. And he's just going to wait until there's a change in leadership. And he's coming in for the kill. Watch. I have to say it is abominable, the unconstitutional actions that are taking place. I don't trust at all that the Trump administration is going to hold any of these people responsible.

We will. We're going to call for accountability. And indeed, you know, the tables will turn someday. These people should recognize that maybe they're not going to get prosecuted today, although we're looking at doing that. But they may get prosecuted after the Trump administration for the things that they did because the statute of limitations won't have run.

Okay, so because the statute of limitations will not have run, it's a tip for tap. And he's saying, if you're going to do your job in law enforcement, because, by the way, the federal government is supposed to carry out Congress's request, which is to make sure that everybody's in the country legally, and if you're here illegally, then yes, ICE, DHS has the right to arrest you, but they're going after the criminals,

okay? So they're not even just going after every Tom Dick and Harry or Susan, Sally, and Jill. Whatever the Spanish equivalent is, right, for that? They're actually going after anyone who has committed a crime and is here illegally. And I don't know what to say, but Pritzker, you're kind of inviting a far larger, dangerous scenario with rhetoric like that. On top of which, you get Brandon Johnson saying, we're going to have ice-free zones all over Chicago, which I'm like, can you really have an ice-free zone?

Because isn't that sort of like, you know, federal versus state, and there's this little thing called the Supremacy Clause, and I hate to bring you back to 1963, Alabama, but I will think George Wallace, who wouldn't allow for the integration into the University of Mississippi and was barring federal. officers are trying to from doing their jobs. So what they do? They sent in the National Guard, and then they all had to make peace. So Pritzker, Brandon Johnson. You guys are like, you know,

I realize there's some confusion over this because Brandon Johnson is black and George Wallace was white, but it's the same kind of deal. Okay, we're talking about federal versus state power. And the feds, they get the jurisdiction on this one. So good luck with your ice-free zones. And good luck, Pritzker, trying to go back after these federal officers, after they're trying to enforce the law as they have been charged by Congress to do. Wow. Wow. I mean, give me a break, ice-free zones. Today, we are signing an executive order aimed at reigning in this out-of-control administration. The order establishes ice-free zones. That means that city property and unwilling private businesses will no longer serve as staging grounds for these raids.

Yeah. Well, good luck. Good luck with that. I don't know why you want to tear this country so badly apart, but it seems to be your mission. You and Letitia James, right? Oh, wow. This lady's coming apart at the seams.

We're going to get to that momentarily. But first, balance in nature, 35% off. Code word Trish.

Not with balance of nature. With balance of nature, they get 31 ingredients and you're going to be able to understand them all, promise. So that's a

Go to balance of nature.com, use code word Trish 35% off today. We are really looking at a doozy here with one Letitia James. I mean, she's just coming apart. She doesn't know what to think about everything. She's indicted. And according to new documents, it's even worse than we thought because it's not just one

house where she was claiming to have a primary residence. There's a second house in Virginia where she's claiming it was her secondary residence, but it seems that that's actually just a rental property, which means it's an income property, which means she should have applied for a different kind of mortgage, but she managed somehow to get herself 8 tenths of a better percent by saying it was her secondary home. So the first was the primary home. She says, in the second one's the secondary home. I don't know what she's saying on that.

But she does want you to know she's not going anywhere because she's like a freaking rock. This is her last night at a rally, her first speaking event, big rally event with lots and lots of people since the indictment came down and she's a rock. See, I know what it feels like to be attacked for just doing your job. But I also know what it feels like to overcome adversity. And so I stand on solid rock. You see, I've learned to stand on the shoulders of my ancestors who've been before, who came before me and weathered the storm. And despite being seared with scars, they survive.

And if they can survive, so over the last few days, I've summoned their strength and their courage. And I will keep fighting for justice. I will keep fighting for New Yorkers. I will keep fighting the aggressive policies of Washington, D.C., and I will not stop. Letitia, baby, I'm telling you, you need a chill pill. Listen, they put her up.

We talked about at the very beginning of this show, right, all the things that Arctic Frost was doing. Now we need to figure out what kind of coordination was going on between the White House and one Leticia James, because they used her to go. go after him. They thought that she could bankrupt him. Four days after a judge ordered Donald Trump to pay $355 million for a decade of fraud. New York Attorney General Leticia James says she's prepared to do everything she can to make sure the former president pays his fine,

including she told us, seizing the buildings that bear his name. If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment, then we will seek, you know, judgment enforcement, mechanisms in court. And we will ask the judge to seize his assets. Woo! Okay, Letitia, baby, that didn't work out. So, well, I know you were just chomping a bit. You wanted to get your hands on Trump Tower, right? And, oh, Bedminster, she had a golf course or two that she was looking at. She wanted to get her hands on. Well, it didn't happen because, you know, the judge was an idiot. And the judge was politically, completely partisan and bias. And the judge comes up with somewhat 500,

million dollar that's with interest, et cetera. Fine on Donald Trump that got thrown out by the appeals court. The appeals court's like, well, where's your victim? Right. But the irony of it all is, right? They've turned it right back on her and in a different and more acute way, because this is a criminal case as opposed to a civil case. And we just learned this week, tantana, you're looking at it, the second home mortgage rider, okay? And in the second home mortgage rider, and in the second home mortgage rider, she was actually saying that she was going to occupy it. Barrow will occupy and use the property as borrower's second home. Barrow will maintain exclusive control over the occupancy of the property,

including short-term rentals and will not subject the property to any time sharing or other shared ownership management or any rental pool or agreement that requires an entity with any control over the occupancy, et cetera. In other words, it could have been like, okay, we're going to use it as an Airbnb, you can have like a weekend house here, but you can't, you can't treat it as an income property, which is effectively, if we are to believe some of the reporting that was done by the Daily Collars investigative unit, what it turned out to be? Because she doesn't live there.

Now, the primary residence alleged primary residence, oh no, that's just, just a clerical mistake. You know, I'm an attorney, but, you know, my power of attorney made this clerical mistake. I'm an attorney, but apparently I signed on to this second home rider thing, promising that it really was my second home rather than an income property. All of that, all of that guys, is going to count against her, not to mention the mortgage she signed onto a dad saying that she was down's wife. You know, we're getting into Ilhan Omar territory, as I've said before, when we start going down that path, all right? So, she's got this problem on her hands, on top. top of which she's just, she ought to be just embarrassed about her niece. We're going to get into it.

But keep in mind, again, as I said, borrow will maintain exclusive control over the occupancy of the property, including short-term rentals and will not subject the property to time sharing or other shared ownership arrangements. Barrow will keep the property available primarily as a residence for borrower's personal use and enjoyment for at least a year after the date of the second home rider. However, there's no indication as the Daily Mail reports that James has ever use the property as a second home. So guess what? Tishy, baby, you're going down.

And even Michael Cohen knows it. Michael Cohen said a first-year law student would be successful in this. They're going to have to kick them off MSNBC. He's not saying what they need and want to hear. He does want to see accountability. There's no doubt about that. Do I believe, for example, that Tish James will be held accountable? Absolutely.

I said it on your show last time. Do I think James Comey will be held accountable? Absolutely. And I know everybody attacks Lindsay Halligan. Oh, she's a former beauty queen and she doesn't have prosecutorial experience. Careful on the beauty queen thing. We're fierce. It doesn't matter.

She has the power of government. You see, remember something. But she doesn't even seem to have the backing of career prosecutors who are still working alongside her. Is it not a little concerning to you that they don't want to appear with her, put their names next to this stuff? Not in the slightest. The documents will speak for themselves, and I'm certain that they have the documents that they need. I said it on a different show and a different program that I believe a first-year law student can actually take these cases to full trial and be successful. Just think about Tish James for a second when you guys had asked me why I believe Tish James is next and why I believe she'll be held accountable.

She's the chief law enforcement agent here in the state of New York. And what did she do? She went after Trump for what? For misstatements to a bank and banking fraud. Well, isn't that exactly what they're charging her now with? The same exact. Not really. No, no, not really.

Isn't it exactly the same facts? No, it's actually worse. She had evidence. I mean, they're like, oh, did you hear that? That MSNBC person like, but she had evidence. He's got evidence too. I mean, he's got evidence that she signed on to a mortgage document for a primary home saying that this was going to be her primary home, except that it wasn't her primary home. It couldn't possibly be her primary home because guess what? She lived in New York

as the Attorney General of New York. And now she's like, huh, but of course. Like, it was just a mistake. Okay, so let's give her the benefit of the doubt. Let's assume that one was a mistake. How do we explain the second home, the second one? Again, with this rider, how do you expect that. You signed up for a secondary property mortgage, even though it really wasn't your secondary home. So that one's not really well explained. And then on top of it all, here's the home, by the way, one of the homes in question, on top of it all, it turns out, now there's allegations she was actually harboring a criminal in her home. So, you know, it's sad. Apparently she's got kind of, you know, a niece with a dick.

difficult past, who apparently was sought by authorities in North Carolina for failing to finish her probation, she escaped to the Letitia's house. And Letitia's admitted this, by the way. Lettia said, well, I just wanted to do the right thing as a good aunt for my niece and her three kids. And so she gave her the house to live in. And now it's coming out that. I don't know, maybe she was like harboring a fugitive, so are they going to slap that on her? two. Here's the article first reported by The Daily Mail. The tenant living in the Virginia house at the center of the New York Attorney General, Letitia James' federal indictment is a, quote, fugitive from justice. The Daily Mail can exclusively reveal. James has reportedly

allowed her grandniece, Nakia Thompson, along with Thompson's three children, to live in the three bedroom property in Norfolk since 2020. Now, in an embarrassing twist for Donald Trump's nemesis, Daily Mail has uncovered that Tomp's. is officially listed as an absconder who is sought by authorities in North Carolina for failing to finish her probation. I mean, you can't make it up. This woman's the attorney general. Okay, she's in charge of enforcing the law and her own grandniece is living out of her home, like hiding out in her home in Virginia that maybe is, maybe isn't the primary residence, right, according to the mortgage documentation. I mean, you really can't make it up. It's just

unbelievable to me how bad this all is. So again, bombshell records show that Letitia James was wrong, that Donald Trump was right. That is the headline in the Daily Mail, the staggering sum of money that she was, quote, swindling. That is an aggressive headline. A very, let me just tell you, isn't a journalist, like there's no alleged swindling there. Daily Mail is coming right out and saying that Latisha James was swindling taxpayers effectively. And the bank. banking system. She's being indicted criminally. That's another big distinction. Remember civil case that she had against Trump versus criminal case that he has against her? Being indicted criminally for bank fraud and for lying to Congress. It's unbelievable. And here is her response. Nothing to see here,

folks. Nothing to see. This is nothing more than a continuation of the president's desperate weaponization of our justice system. He is forcing federal law enforcement agencies to do his bidding, all because I did my job as the New York State Attorney General. These charges are baseless, and the president's own public statements make clear that his only goal is political retribution at any cost. Really? I mean, I do recall a time, don't you, when it seemed that you, the time. Tisha, we're out for blood in an actually far more aggressive way, shall we say, than won Donald Trump. Okay, this is when she was running for office, just to jog your memory, okay? This is 2018.

She's running for office. She hasn't got squat. She hasn't got anything. She hasn't even opened the file. She doesn't even know what she's looking at, but she's going to sue him. She's going to sue them and she's going to sue them every single day from morning, noon, until night. Congressman Donald, she said this is nothing to see here. It's just retribution, but that sounds like retribution.

Yeah. 100% her entire campaign for Attorney General of New York was to go after one man and that one man was Donald Trump. She was letting real criminals go. She was letting him go scot-free in New York, but she ran just to go after President Trump and it's wrong. It's a misuse of power, abuse of power. And now we find out that she was not on the up and up with her personal documents and now she wants to feign outrage. Well look, this is very simple. If you live in a glass house, don't throw stones.

It's pretty is real simple. But unfortunately, Letitia James, she's indicted because it appears that, yes, she was defrauding mortgage companies to get a favorable down payment and a favorable interest rate. And she thought nobody was going to check. You know, except she decided to use mortgage fraud to go after the president. Now he's in office and he's like, oh, yeah, honey, bunny, guess what? We're coming for you. When powerful people cheat, she wrote back in 2024, February of 2020. 24. Remember, this was also coordinated. It seems, it seems Arctic Frost. I mean, was she in on it?

When powerful people cheat to get better loans, it comes at the expense of hardworking people. You don't say, Letitia, you don't say, everyday Americans cannot lie to a bank to get a mortgage. And if they did, our government would throw the book at them. You don't say, do you? Latisha, there simply cannot be different rules for different people. Oh, thank you. You know what? I arrest my case. Couldn't have said it better myself. Latisha James, you're in a whole lot of trouble and you may be going to jail for 30 years. 30 years, bank fraud, making false statements to financial institutions facing 30 years in federal prison because you lied. And by the way, you way overplayed your hand, you overplayed it. And now

no one watch it in New York. The voters just look at the poll number. She was already underwater as of May. It's gotten even worse now that all of this has come out. I like this videotape because she's dancing there in the Labor Day parade. And there's a certain irony because like hardly anybody's clapping, nobody cares, except for maybe the porta-potties that she's dancing alongside. I mean, that's kind of an unfortunate picture. An unfortunate look for one, Leticia. Make some noise, Roy. You're a journey general. Tish James. I don't hear any noise. Not much noise. No, I don't think they're that into her there. But this has been proven out, by the way, in all of the polling data that we've most recently seen.

The polling data suggests she's doing worse than Chuck She's. Schumer, which is a big deal, okay? She's doing worse than Chuck Schumer. She should be way higher right now at this point in the cycle. As Attorney General, she is trying to raise money off of all this. She's got a hat and hand. She's got no money, right? And she's got Abby Loll who cost a fortune. He's the guy that represented Hunter Biden. Funny enough, right? On that laptop, amazing. What goes around comes around, right? But there are a lot of questions on this lady right about now. and it's all coming out. Okay, I just get to say, you know what?

Doge was there for a reason. The president wanted to make the government smaller. And for whatever reason, the Democrats are very happy to oblige. News today, that over 4,700 employees, 4,700, nearly 5,000 employees at the IRS, employees at the Environmental Protection Association and employees at HUD, they are out of jobs. Apparently seven agencies altogether have been affected. And yet there's no apparent plan for the Democrats to get back on board. No, they keep coming up with crazy stuff as Mike Johnson so well articulated earlier today.

I want to go to the floor where Mike Johnson is saying, you know what? These people are wasting our time and they are wasting our money, our tax. taxpayer dollars. And they would send a half a billion dollars to liberal news outlets by refunding the corporation for public broadcasting. It would also restore up to $5 billion of American taxpayer funds for wasteful spending for international projects. Here's a couple of examples.

This is in their legislation, their counterproposal on the CR to keep the lights open. This is what they want to do. They want to spend $24.6 million of your hard-earned dollars as a taxpayer for climate resilience in Honduras. They want to spend $13.4 million for civic engagement in Zimbabwe. They want to send $3.9 million for LGBTI-plus democracy grants and the Western Balkans. They want to spend $2.9 million of your dollars for desert locust risk reduction in the Horn of Africa. And $2 million for, quote, organizing for feminist democratic principles in Africa. We are not doing that. These are unsurious proposals from

unsurious people and they are playing games while real Americans are being harmed adversely by the shutdown. I mean, you can't make it up. They had a good thing going for a while, did they not? I mean, they had all kinds of ways of paying off their journalist friends in the name of, oh, State Department marketing, I guess. Global Aid, U.S. Global Aid. unbelievable what has been uncovered by Doge. And now we're in an environment where guess what,

they just handed Donald Trump a blank slate. And Russ vote. He's been chomping at the bid for a while. He was a heritage. He was part of Project 2025. He's like, we need to slim down the government. And by the way we do. And this has been his passion. And he wants to do it. And now they just gave him the opportunity to do it. And for some reason, they still don't get it. They don't get it. No, no, they have to fight for the $1.5 trillion that they want for health care spending. They would go primarily to illegals that they invited into this country, carte blanche, right, to put up in hotels, to give free vouchers to, and free health care. It's honestly nuts. Well, that's...

Well, that's... But that's... It depends on who the they are. There are enough Republicans on a piece of legislation if all the Democrats supported it that, that would extend those Obamacare subsidies for one year. Just on the policy, would you support that? I think I've been very clear, which is that that is not a proposal that I'm prepared to support at this particular point in time.

Well, it's very simple, because working class Americans, everyday Americans and middle class Americans deserve the same level of certainty and assurance as to their health care costs in an environment that the cost of living is already out of control, electricity prices through the roof, housing costs through the roof, grocery costs through the roof, now tens of millions of Americans about to experience dramatically increased premiums, co-pays, and deductibles. We should provide these everyday Americans with the same type of certainty.

Yeah, and that makes sense. I understand that. What about supporting that, along with reopening the government, because the Republicans don't feel that they are, feeling any political pain now. You saw the White House, the O&B director put out something about that they're battening down the hatches because they're paying troops, law enforcement, and they're making permanent cuts to the federal workforce while this shutdown is happening. Republicans have been engaging in mass firings and attacking hardworking federal employees

since the very beginning of Donald Trump's presidency. And so to the extent that this is continuing, it's more of the same. Cruelty for them is the point. We've been very very very much. We've been very clear, as Democrats, again, we'll find a bipartisan path forward. We want to reopen the government. We want to make sure that our hardworking federal employees and civil servants get paid. But we also have to address the Republican health care crisis. And the American people clearly know who shut the government down. Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the presidency. They are blaming them because it's their responsibility. And they've adopted of my way or the highway approach from the very beginning of this presidency. And that, unfortunately,

unfortunately has continued through this shutdown. I want to play something that the New York City Democratic mayoral candidate is or. They're not blaming them, okay? Even the New York Times took a poll. And Chuck Schumer can hardly believe it. He's like, he's calling the New York Times bias right now because of their poll. The poll which says, Americans blame. Don't-da-na, wait for it.

Hakeem Jeffries, you and the Democrats, and Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and AOC and Bernie Sanders, and all of them. I'll throw Elizabeth Warren in there too while you're at it. By the way, it was Columbus Day yesterday. Not Indigenous People's Day. Columbus Day by executive order. Columbus, great man. We wouldn't actually have this country.

Without him, I digress. The point being, we don't have the money to spend on all these ridiculous pet projects. I got a kick out of the trans frogs. I'm looking at Don Backa's comment. We don't have the money. And even if we did, we don't want to spend it on crazy projects to nothing. We actually have to be judicious with our money. Why not have the government act more like a false?

family. And you know what kind of family? I realize, I'm going to give you a quick, quick little story growing up, small town in New Hampshire, live free or die country. We had some wonderful neighbors live next door. Really, really, really like hardcore conservatives, really like wonderful, live for your die conservatives. The wife was from Mississippi, actually originally. The husband was from Maine. They had three daughters, all of whom used to babysit me at one point or another. And just a terrific family. And one of the things that I later in life grew to admire that I learned about this family is that the husband, he was an airline pilot. Every time he got a raise, it didn't matter. It just went into the bank. He never actually, I mean, his poor wife,

right? She was like making the kids clothes and everything. But he never would spend more. It's like the family, just because you're making more money doesn't mean you need to necessarily spend more. Okay, so this is the theory, right, with Gene Spurling, who was head of the economic council, I got into a big to do with him one day. Management was actually kind of mad at Bloomberg over this, because Gene kept telling me, well, you're not spending more as a percentage of GDP. You've got to keep spending more and more and more. And I'm like, but wait, why? Just because GDP or our economy is growing, why do we have to spend more? I'm thinking about the family next door to us in New Hampshire. Their GDP was growing. They were making more as a family, but they didn't

spend more. No, they saved it or they invested it. And, you know, why can't we actually think more logically about things? But you can't because Democrats want to spend their money. They want your money. They want to take it and they want to take it for themselves and reallocate it to the voters that they want to vote for them. You see, there was a method to the madness with bringing everybody here right across the border illegally. Was there not? Oh, and now you get to pay for their health care. Listen to Hakim Jeffrey is getting called out on CNN. I love this. clip. I mean, I do realize that Jake Tapper's probably looking for a job at Fox, but nonetheless, I'll take it. Donald Trump blessed it as well.

So let me ask you about a provision that the Republicans are talking about quite a bit. I know you want to talk about, and Democrats want to talk about extending the Obamacare subsidies, which expire at the end of 2025. But they talk about the provisions, and it's right here, subtitle E, and this has to do with the repeal of health care subtitle changes, and specifically what it is. They're, how they characterize it is, you want to give health caretive. insurance to undocumented immigrants. I understand that. I like that.

How you want to characterize as or they want to characterize it is you want to give health care to undocumented immigrants. Watch what Hakeem says next. Not really an accurate depiction, but what it does do is... It's a lie. It's a lie. But what you support... Not really.

Does bring back funding for emergency Medicaid to hospitals, some of which does pay for undocumented immigrants. and people who don't have health insurance. And also, there is this provision, and it's not about undocumented immigrants. It's about people with asylum seekers and people with temporary protected status, et cetera, et cetera, but about their ability to get Medicaid. So they're non-citizens. They're not undocumented.

They're not illegal. Why even include that in a bill, knowing that they're going to seize right upon that and use that to message? I understand that. He's got no answer. He's got no answer. So they refuse to take blame. and now we've got thousands laid off from government jobs because of the shutdown and because of

the Democrats. And don't sit there and tell me that the Republicans should fold here. They're actually sticking up for something. Listen, you could get a clean CR through. That would be the thing to do. Okay, I'm not going to walk out on you too much today. Don't worry. But you could do a clean CR and then you could continue to negotiate, but they don't want to do

that. they want that $1.5 trillion in there that was put in a special provision back during 2020 when the whole country shut down. I said it shouldn't, but they did it anyway, right? They shut down the country because of 2020. And you know what they did with that in terms of making a political, et cetera. You knew at the time. I mean, I was trying to warn everybody, but I just got myself in a whole lot of trouble. That's okay. Again, it all worked out for the best because I'm here and I'm having way more fun and you know what, I'll take that trade any day of the week. Any day. I mean that. Make sure you subscribe, share, like. It's very, very important. Boy, Donald Trump does not like

this Time Magazine cover. Have you seen it? You see, Trump got a wonderful article in Time Magazine. Actually, the journalist that wrote this tends to be far more fair. I mean, if there is such a thing as a fair journalist at Time Magazine, this journalist, Eric Cortellessa, I think, is how much you say his last name. Anyway, Eric does a very good job writing about Donald Trump. But the picture is, well, the picture's not great. By the way, Eric didn't pick that. The journalist doesn't, the way this kind of goes down. And I know, having worked in the print media, and I used to be a columnist at USA Today, you don't actually pick the artwork. So you may write the article, but you don't have anything to do with the artwork. Here on this show, guess what, I do it all. Graphics, artwork, you name it.

So I have a lot more control. But in this particular case, or at least I overest, see it. In this case, the reporter, I bet you anything didn't have anything to do it. So it's a beautiful piece. It's a wonderful piece. It praises Donald Trump because, listen, nobody else could have gotten this done. I promise you in a zillion years. This was a, this was, it's like an act from God. I mean, the fact that he managed to stay alive during that horrific, two horrific attempts to take his life, but one in particular, right, of course, in Butler, Pennsylvania, the fact that he's here with us and what he was able to accomplish. And I realize there's some skirmishes now and, you the sides are going to take some time to work it all out. I get it. Don't get me wrong,

but I'm just going to make this statement that no one other than Donald Trump could have gotten this far. And this is what Time Magazine is recognizing, but he doesn't like the picture. And I don't blame him. It doesn't actually really look like him at all. I mean, the difference is in the past, they used to try and put like the devil ears. And now it looks like he's got like a holy crown, right? The sun. It's like a halo. The halo. The halo. over his head. So he noticed that. He wrote on truth social at 1.30 in the morning. Of course, he's coming back from Israel. I don't know how the guy does it. Listen, I'm not good with jet lag. I'm really not, but he's a wonderkin. We know that. Time Magazine wrote a relatively good story

about me. But the picture may be the worst of all time, he writes. They disappeared my hair. And then they had something floating on the top of my head that looked like a floating crown, but an extremely small one. I mean, hey, if you're going to give him a crime, might as well give him a big one, right? He wants a big old crown. Anyway, really weird exclamation point, he writes. I never liked taking pictures from underneath angles.

I'm with him on that. Donald Trump, you and I are in agreement. But this is a super bad picture and deserves to be called out. What are they doing and why? We're trying to undermine you. They're like, gosh, darn it. We got Eric writing this really nice puff piece on President Trump and his big piece deal

and he's probably going to get the Nobel. prize next time around. Heck, Maria Gorana Majada, she dedicated her Nobel Prize to him. So what can we do? The artists in the art department decided they would get clever and they thought, oh, well, there's a halo on him, so everybody will be okay with that. But then they kind of basically made him look like he didn't have any hair and he didn't really appreciate it. Inside baseball, he likes to be photographed from one side. Most people on television, believe it or not, have a side. They like to be photographed. I like to be photographed from this side as opposed to that side. I tend to cheat everything I'm right-handed, right? So like, I'll look to the right. He, on the other hand,

uh, likes to be photographed from the other side. So I remember once when I was doing an interview in person with him, getting a call and, you know, thinking, okay, you know, like we're going to talk about big picture stuff. And the call was actually about which side we were going to sit on. And I thought that was the funniest thing in the world. And I was like, listen, we got it all wrapped up because his good side is his good side and my good side is my good side. So it's actually a perfection. We both get the sides we want. Anyway, he's very concerned with image. I don't blame him for not being thrilled with that picture.

I wouldn't be happy with it either. It doesn't really look like him. But I will say this. It doesn't matter because, you know, he has done an amazing job. And because he's done such an amazing job, everybody's taking note. Even Time Magazine, you cannot ignore this. Even Hillary Clinton has come out and said, wow, Donald Trump,

I commend him and his administration. Bill Clinton said this. I mean, the only one with sour grapes is Barry, good old Barack Obama, who can't bring it on himself to say congratulations to Donald Trump. He really couldn't. In fact, he went on to a podcast yesterday. I won't bore you with the sound. We played it yesterday.

But he said, well, you know, Trump and I, we see things very differently. Michelle and Trump and I, like, these are not our kind of people, is effectively what he was trying to say. On the day that the guy gets an amazing piece of court. I mean, it's incredible what he's been able to accomplish. And yet, oh, Barack Obama, he still can't take it. And he's, by the way, the source of everything that started, okay? Bad team player.

The View is going to have to take some of its own medicine, I think. Yeah, the View is going to have to wear some MAGA hats on set, or at least one of the hosts on the View is going to have to wear her MAGA hat. We're waiting. We're waiting. It didn't happen today. I was looking. Not that I watched that show. No one can watch that show. I look for clips from the show so I can show you. But it's a pretty abominable show. Anyway, let me go back in time to over the

winter. In December, I think it was, when one of the, she's sort of a rhino in the group said that if Donald Trump could get this deal done, any kind of, you know, he could get the hostages out. Gosh darn it, she'd wear a maga hat. Watch. My point when I say, I'm not going to be apocalyptic. It's not changing a tune. It's not making every single thing a five alarm fire. If he does good, if he gets the Israeli hostages out, I promise I will wear a MAGA hat for one day on the show and say, thank you for doing it. She'll knock it right off my head.

You have to be able to cheer for wins when they happen and then call out relentlessly the wrongdoing. Okay, then we're waiting. Are you going to celebrate? Are you going to wear the hat? You know who wants to know? Don Jr. Don Jr. actually tweeted that little clip out last night. And he said, okay, where is it?

Where is it? Are we going to see it? I don't know. Big news happening right now. I want to bring you live to the White House. We're looking at, first of all, the crowd gathering for the Charlie Kirk ceremony, Charlie Kirk, it's his birthday today. Charlie Kirk would have been getting the Medal of Freedom.

while they are awarding the Medal of Freedom to him today on what would have been his 32nd birthday, Charlie Kirk, as you well know, recently gunned down by a complete animal while speaking out in Utah, it's still pretty fragile for me. Like, I get to tell you, like, it still doesn't feel real. It still does not feel real. Just a little inside baseball for you, and some of you have heard this before. I first saw Charlie on the air when he came on my show. One of my producers had booked him. This is like years ago. We're going back like 10 years. And I remember just saying, wow, that kid is good. He's really, really, really good. Make sure you bring him back. And so we did. We brought him back all the time. And he had a regular spot actually on my primetime show that I had on Fox Business. And I love the way Charlie thought about things because it was innovative. Like it was different. It was not predictable. So many people in this business, they have their political talking points that are like handed down from the Republican Party. But, Charlie had such a breath of knowledge about history, about civics, about politics, about world matters,

that he could approach things from so many different angles, and he could think on his feet like nobody's business. And I really, I just was so impressed, so impressed, and I liked him. I just liked him. He's also tall and handsome and wonderful. Just you could see Charlie being one day president in the United States, no joke. Had he made it through this, I think he actually would have been. But Charlie, you know, he was willing to take chances. Let's just say that others were not willing to take, and he continued to be out there fighting the good cause. Let me show you Erica Kirk, his widow, and Donald Trump walking to the podium.

Thank you very much, everybody. Please, this is such an honor. This is the, please, be seated. this is the first time we've been at the new and improved Rose Garden and people are loving. Oh, people are loving it. People are loving it indeed. He's been kind of a rock for Erica in this really challenged time.

And, you know, I want to show you another angle of the two of them walking out as we continue to bring in new sound here. here is a clip that was from the president's assistant margot martin that she just put out let me let me bring this your way as well okay let's see if we get this one can we get this one we'll get it we'll get it we'll get it so again this is his 32nd birthday and um just a young guy you know he never went to college you just went and schooled all those college because i'm going to tear up you guys again you know the other day driving to school they were playing the song bye-bye miss america pie and I'm driving my kids to school and they're like, there you go again, mom, there you go again.

But Charlie was really just remarkable. And the whole thing is, I think, still very fresh and very raw for so many of us. I was live with you on the air as that happened as we got that news. And the tragedy is one that I will never forget. You know, I think about the power he had over young people, which was truly incredible. I consider my own children part of that because it's one thing. It's one thing when you hear it from mom that, you know, capitalism is good. And, you know, freedom of opportunity is what we need to guarantee everyone in this country.

But when you heard it from Charlie, it was a different thing entirely. Different thing entirely. Here's the president speaking about the wonder that was Charlie Kirk. He was assassinated in the prime of his life for boldly speaking the truth, for living his faith and relentlessly fighting for a better and stronger America. I love this country. And that's why this afternoon it's my privilege to posthumously award Charles James Kirk, our nation's highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Thank you. As you know, only hours ago, I returned from a very historic trip to secure peace in the Middle East. People said that couldn't be done. Charlie felt it could be done. Charlie felt it could be done. Thank you. Thank you very much. But I raced back halfway around the globe. I was going to call Erica and say, Erica, could you maybe move it to Friday? And I didn't have the courage to call. But you know why I didn't call? Because I heard today was Charlie's birthday. And I said, you know, now we that was a definite. And I said, we're going to have to forget about it.

some of those very big, very rich countries that expected me to be there. And I can tell you, based on the length of that flight, I wouldn't want to go back tomorrow. But I would not have missed this moment for anything in the world. Nothing. And it's a very important time. Very important time, indeed. An incredible time. And Charlie would be so happy to see all of this right now.

I am telling you this would be, you know, I realize there's been all this gossip and this and that, and we don't traffic in that here on the Trish Regan show. But I guarantee you this would be a very proud moment for him. Today we're here to honor and remember a fearless warrior for liberty, beloved leader who galvanized the next generation like nobody I've ever seen before and an American patriot of the deepest conviction, the finest quality and the highest, caliber, the late great Charlie Kirk.

Great, great, great guy. You know, this is a wonderful honor, of course, to get that Medal of Freedom, just an incredible, incredible honor. But it shouldn't be like this, right? Like, no one should have to go through what Charlie and his family are going through. Erica Kirk is clearly a woman on a mission. she is working to keep her husband's legacy alive. And believe me, they get thousands of hours of tape,

and it will be alive. And they continue to release that. Erica Kirk, and we'll go to her speaking momentarily, accepting the award for her husband on his 32nd birthday. I can tell you that the House has approved making this National Day of Remembrance. And I kind of feel like every kid in school, see, I told you I get emotional on this,

needs a civics class in Charlie's honor. Because for someone who never went and did all the fancy college stuff, he went out to school the college kids himself. You don't need a fancy degree for any of this. But it would be nice if more of our population understood their duty and felt a sense of purpose and had a higher calling, like Charlie clearly did. Just an amazing guy, an amazing person who we miss every day.

We really do. We miss every day. You heard they're going to have the turning point halftime show. The halftime show during the NFL game. We all going to go over there and watch it, right, in support of Charlie because, you know, Bad Bunny, who hates America. For goodness sakes they were playing God bless America the other day at the Yankees game. And Bad Bunny wouldn't even stand.

Just sat there with this. head down. He doesn't care. He doesn't love this country. I'm sorry, Puerto Rico is part of America, buddy. You know, you'd think that he might have a little more, especially given that he's doing the Super Bowl. I mean, how much more Americana can you get? Anyway, I digress. The point being that we need more patriots in this country, and we need to honor our patriots, and we need to appreciate our patriots. And whatever this virus is that's infecting our youth, that infected the guy who killed Charlie that's going to stop because we got to be one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. It's right there, right there in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Think about why our country was started, you guys. Our country was started to make sure that everybody had an opportunity to prosper. I mean, we did some wild stuff like guaranteeing property rights. Imagine that. That didn't happen back in Europe. Back in the day, 250 years ago, we're, we're going to do. looking at a big birthday, I wish Charlie could have been here for it. 250 years, we have survived, we have become the greatest nation on earth because of the

principles that Charlie so well understood our constitution that has led us to such greatness. And when we lose sight of that, or we try and tear it down, or we try and, you're going to say, well, those founding fathers, they were no good because, gosh, Thomas Jefferson had slaves. I'm sorry, you're looking through the, you've got to look at everything, and I say this as an American historian who studied this. That was my area of study. You've got to look through the lens of history. You cannot judge based on today. You judge through the lens of history. And these were some great and talented and gifted men who came up with the United States Constitution, who had the bravery to separate themselves from great. Britain. Think about what that took. Think about what they were up against. And they did it. Because they were willing to take a step towards something new, something different. I've partnered actually with AFP on this campaign for all of us to take small steps. It makes me think of Charlie because he was taking a lot of big steps, but you know, small steps,

any step, right? To just take a step towards remembering the greatness that is this nation. they're actually calling it, take one small step.com. I'm going to put it in the show notes so that you have the link and just go check it out. I mean, it could be just, you know, inviting a neighbor over for tea and talking about the greatness of this country or maybe talking about Charlie. I mean, remembering the importance of your civic duty as an American. And part of that includes educating your children and helping your neighbors and believing in your community and not allowing politics. to divide us. Because that's not who we are.

And that's not who we ever will be. Charlie, rest in peace, still doesn't feel real. The company that actually represents the advertising side of my show also represented him. I was on a call just hours before this all happened with some salespeople,

and then there was, Charlie's name came up. It's all so surreal. and so weird because I knew him as a colleague, as a friend, and I'm devastated for what's happened to his life that was so young and full of so much promise, and to his wife and to his children. Anyway, we move on. We move forward, and we are thankful that we're here together and are able to communicate, right?
