Welcome, everyone to the big show. We have quite a situation unfolding at this hour in Minneapolis. As we go into the next few hours, it is expected that the President of the United States will, in fact, invoke the Insurrection Act. And the reason is because this is a state that cannot keep things under control. Just all the video that we've seen coming in, some of which I'll show you, has everyone coming to the same conclusion that there is neither of the, the will nor the desire nor the ability to keep things under control in Minneapolis right now. And as a result of that, they're going to have to look at invoking what's called the 1807 Insurrection Act. Very rarely invoked. It's been done so by the Bush administration in 1992.

Again, you can go back to Arkansas because of civil rights integration issues and challenges that Dwight Eisenhower had to invoke the Insurrection Act back in 1957. And then if you go back, to the days of Lincoln, well, you know, this is kind of where it all started. So it leaves a lot of people asking the question, like, what exactly is the Democrats' goal in all of this? Because this doesn't feel right, obviously, in light of what we are seeing there on the ground. I want to go to Greg Bevino. He just spoke moments ago. This is the Border Patrol chief. And he was talking on Fox News about how lawless it is indeed has become. Sure, Sandra, the situation there at the federal building, the Whipple building, quite active protests out front at the building, and there have been some recent arrest made some of those protesters and rioters.

They want to block the road, make it difficult for federal law enforcement to do its job. So they're being pushed out of the road, and if they don't move, they're being arrested. Greg, it's John here. We know that it's been an awfully busy couple of weeks for you there in Minneapolis. We see the resist flag in the footage that we were looking at, although our camera has just gone down. Don't know why. It could simply be a battery and we'll probably be back up again. But that's echoing the words of the governor of Minnesota last night who said that people should go out and resist ice. They should take their cameras out with them and film everything that they're doing. This idea, though, of holding protests right in front of the federal building. right where ICE is, the confrontation between the protesters and ICE, is in your mind, is that the way the people should be protesting ICE's presence, or should they have an area where protesters make their voices heard, but avoid direct confrontation? Sure, no one wants direct confrontation, John.

We respect the First Amendment rights of anyone to air their grievances. We just ask those grievances to be aired civilly. and not with violence. And that's where it seems a lot of these individuals cross the line, whether they're at the Whipple Federal Building or otherwise, is because they're encouraged, and we've said this many times Sandra and John, they're encouraged to step over that line. And as you say, resist. And that is far and apart from exercising the First Amendment right to freedom of speech, freedom of assembly. Wow. So again, the important thing here is the distinction where they're being encouraged, if you would,

to step over the line across the line as he described it to the point of creating this anarchist-like environment. And by the way, he's not wrong when he says that because I want to go to a clip that I saw on CNN last night that I think is really important to see in light of the context of everything. Okay. We've got a Democrat lawmaker from the state of Minnesota that is encouraging. Bobby Champion, I believe it was his name, he's a state lawmaker, and you have to hear it for yourself here. The anchor specifically asked, specifically asked, would you say that they should continue to engage this way if they were to be armed and listen to his answer, guys, listen to this? If there were neighbors and others who came out to help this person, that is just an example of Minnesota being a place where we help our neighbors. And we are clear that the ICE agents have been coming here, and there's over 2,000 of them.

And they've been attacking and terrorizing our state. So, yes, neighbors will come out and be helpful. I'm not certain if they had brooms or shovel. That is to be further investigated. If they did, in fact, have some sort of weapons to use to attack the ICE officer, would that change your opinion? opinion of whatever unfolded next. This is important. Actually, no, right? Because from our vantage point, we wanted to make sure, and always

wanted to make sure that Minnesotans are being dealt with properly. No? Actually, no, that's not going to change things because you still think that that's the best way to handle it and that Minnesotans will be dealt with properly if the people take up arms. Are you kidding me? I mean, this is getting, you know, we're going to listen to it again, just so we're absolutely doubly sure this is what he said. Listen. If they did, in fact, have some sort of weapons to use to attack the ICE officer, would that change your opinion of whatever unfolded next? Actually, no, right?

No, right? Because we're going to do what we can to make sure that people are protecting themselves. I mean, whoa! You know, no, I guess they love this. Second Amendment at a time like this. For goodness sakes, this is getting wild and I want to show you why. So there is a reporter, a local citizen journalist, not local, I actually think he's in Minneapolis named Nick Sorter, and he went on the ground, he filmed something. I'm going to share with you, just, just bear with me because some people actually went into a federal vehicle, and they pulled out, yanked out a locker, a locked locker metal,

filled with weapons. And they tried to open it. So here we go. I want to show you this video. And you tell me, do we need the military there on the ground, courtesy of the 1807 Insurrection Act or what? Because clearly Minneapolis can't and won't handle this. Take a peek.

So this is the locker in the car. You can see they're running towards it. They're excited. They got it pulled out of the vehicle. that's a federal vehicle, I should point out, we have since confirmed that. So they've got a federal vehicle with a locker inside that is filled with weaponry, guns, et cetera. And now they are trying to open it. And this is one of the reasons we now have the President of the United States meeting with lawyers

looking at calling for the Insurrection Act because the concern is that things are just going to spiral out of control. And Minneapolis, dare I even say, it seems like the lawmakers kind of want that. So here they are. They're trying to get this open. Thank goodness, apparently the lock was too tight. They couldn't do so. But I think this is an example really of what our ice agents, the federal government is up against in Minneapolis. And it's being encouraged. Don't forget, this is the place of the George Floyd BLM riots of 2020. They are in some ways well orchestrated and situated for this kind of stuff because they had some experience not just six years ago. There were five and a half years ago. Again, they're trying desperately to open. open this locker filled with guns and weaponry.

And thank goodness they were not successful in that attempt. But what does that tell you about where we are right now in the streets of Minneapolis? What is this saying about Minneapolis police and their ability to keep this under control? All while they're being told, don't help ice. Don't help ice. So what happens if these people get a hold of these weapons and then are pointing these weapons at ice? Again, if we go back and listen to the local Democrat lawmaker from Minnesota, that's perfectly fine. As you saw him say, the anchor specifically asked him, what if they actually

were to take up weapons? Would that change your answer to encourage them to go out and riot like this? And he said, no, it would not change his answer. So that gives you an understanding of the tonality that we're seeing on the ground there in terms of the response from lawmakers, the lack of response from lawmakers. It's really clear they have their agenda. And I fear, unfortunately, that this agenda is combined with trying to make sure that they can create as much havoc and make as much disturbances for ice in hopes that ice goes home. But you know what? They have not met President Trump, clearly. I want to show you, Nick Sotter or a citizen journalist in just a moment that was also attacked by these guys. But first, let's go back to Mr. Bovino. He is, again,

the acting head of ICE right now. And he's talking about the danger that all of these people are faced with all of these ICE agents, DHS agents, anybody in federal law enforcement right now is encountering. And he confirms, in fact, as we told you, that that locker belonged to federal agents. And here he is referencing what you're seeing on the ground. Without getting too much into the investigation, it was a federal vehicle. But just to the point, that is not peaceful protesting. That's not what the governor. That's not what the mayor is calling for. That's call it. That's an anarchy, plain and simple. That's impediment. And unfortunately, that's what ICE agents are encountering every day.

What we really need is elected officials to say, you know, you can peacefully protest, but not like that, not throwing fireworks, not break it into vehicles, not putting your hands on ICE agents. But instead, they just keep increasing the rhetoric. And that's why you keep seeing this night after night, what the men and women of ICE and our other federal partners, and to effect, local law enforcement are encountering daily. Unbelievable.

I mean, again, that was Greg. Bovino, who's acting head of DHS, talking about what these agents are up against daily. And this is the latest example of this. You know, I don't know what choice the president is really going to have at this point because it's going to come down on him if the people are not safe. And so if you've got to ensure the safety of the people there in Minneapolis, you're going to have to take action. And it does mean invoking 1807 Insurrection Act.

It's happened before. We've done it as recently as 1992 because of the... Rodney King trial and the outcome that came out of that one and the riots. And in order to keep people safe, in order for federal law enforcement to be able to do its job in this particular case, in order to protect the constitutional rights of the Minnesotans, they're going to have to look at this. And so, indeed, this is what's being discussed as we speak. I want to point to, you know, people walking right into harm's way, this citizen journalist

who taped that video, he was encountering a moment. mob just the other night. Nick Sordor and it's unthinkable. I mean, here they are, gathered around his car, trying to take him out. I mean, this is, he's, he's in Minnesota. He's protected by his constitutional rights. If there's no police officer that's willing to break this up and stop this, then it tells you something's got to be done. And yet, you know, here you've got this city completely effectively burning, right? Minneapolis is burning. And yet don't tell the legacy media, The media is not reporting on this. The media is only reporting on what happened with Renee Good.

What happened with the Venezuelan illegal that was a criminal they were tracking down. And the guy goes after, think about that, two ICE agents just last night and is attacking them. And they're not entitled to have any kind of self-defense. That's the mentality of the left right now. That's what they're thinking in the mainstream media. Again, if you go to citizen journalists, like Nick, again, he's out there and he came across this video, this may have been VG on the scene, where they found ICE, the people of Minneapolis believed that ICE was staying inside this hotel, and so they gathered outside the hotel, and were trying to stampede this hotel with commentary like F-E-E-E-E-S, Somali flags,

trying to taunt the police. They're trying to basically get the situation heated up more and more and more. of course to try and bring this on to a bigger and bigger problem. It's being encouraged, not discouraged. Walsh is not working with the president of the United States. Jacob Fry is not working with the president of the United States. Jacob Fry is like bringing on, ICE get the F out. Or we're just going to keep on doing this?

No, you're not. No, you are not, mister. Get the fuck out of Minneapolis. Your stated reason for being in this city is to create some kind of safety and you are doing exactly the opposite. Somebody is dead. That's on you. This was... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

It is not on the federal government. It is on you, you turd. Okay? Give it clean. I mean, that is a bad dude. Bad dude. They want this. They want this. They want to invoke a kind of civil war. So here's where you can see this going, okay?

Next thing that's going to happen is the president of the United States is going to invoke the Insurrection Act. He really doesn't have a choice in light of what's going on. So as he said this morning on his truth social, if the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionist from attacking the patriots of ICE who are just doing their job. I will institute the Insurrection Act, which many presidents have done before me and quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place in that once great state. Thank you for your attention to this matter of president, D.J.T. Listen, he's got every right at this point to do this. The authority does exist. The legal authority. It's pretty plain and simple. You're going to need

the military in there keeping things under control because clearly Wals has no intention of doing so. the way, he also pointed out a highly respected judge, declined to block ICE operations. You know why? Because guess what? Hey, hey, guys, I got news for you, idiots. They do not understand the Constitution of the United States of America. I'm telling you, we need better social studies programs in our schools, okay? Here's the deal. The Constitution guarantees certain rights, and if a state thinks that they can give us the middle finger and not actually enforce that, then you know what's going to happen? The Insurrection Act. Because guess what ISIS job? Isis job is to make sure that they enforce the law for God's sakes. All right?

Like that's what they're there to do. DHS to enforce the law. Okay, the Department of Homeland Security. You got immigrations and custom enforcement. They're just doing their job. And by the way, you guys were totally fine when Barack Obama was doing it. In fact, I saw a video. I won't bore you with it, but a video of very predictable CNN doing a little ride-alon with Barack Obama's ICE DHS team. And how great that was, they glorified the whole thing. Think about that. And yet look at what they're doing here and they're trying to encourage this bedlam and this disrespect for law and order because they want.

I'm just going to freaking say it. They want a freaking civil war. That's what they want. So ICE operations in the very politically corrupt state of Minnesota, he said a highly respected judge declined to block those operations. I will therefore be allowed to continue its highly successful operation of removing some of the most violent and vicious criminals anywhere in the world. Many of the murderers from the state, the great patriots of law enforcement,

will continue to make our country safe, record low crime numbers. Yeah, you saw what they were able to do in Washington, D.C. That was pretty damn great, right? Well, listen, they're going to do it in Minneapolis, whether Ilhan Omar and Timmy Wals and Jacob Frye like it or not. It's common. Okay, we've got all kinds of reasons why we can do this. Christine Nome admitting today that the president of the United States and she have been

discussing the importance of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minneapolis in light of all that has happened. In other words, this cannot be allowed. Let's go to Department of Homeland Security. Christy Noon. A violation of the law in many places. I discussed with the president this morning, several things that we are dealing with

under the department in different operations. We did discuss the Insurrection Act. He certainly has the constitutional authority to utilize that. My hope is that this leadership team in Minnesota will start to work with us to get criminals off the streets. Remember, we are there in surged operations because of the largest fraud scheme in American history.

Boom. Do you hear that, Ilhan? She's nervous now. We're going to get to that because Ilhan Omar is freaking out. I mean freaking out. They get key provisions here. For example, 252 of the Insurrection Act. This is Insurrection Act 10 U.S.C. 251-255, expressly authorizing for the President of the United States

to deploy federal troops inside a state under specific circumstances, which, if you ask me, this one meets the criteria. if you ask anybody, it meets the criteria. 252. When unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, there would be all those rioters, right, make it impractical to enforce federal law through ordinary judicial proceedings.

Or 253, when domestic violence or conspiracies deprive people of constitutional rights and the state is unwilling to accept or to protect, those rights. Another words, this can be done, and you don't need the consent of the state. No, no, no, no, no, no.

The federal government can jump in. In fact, that's what's happened before. I mean, in the case of putting in the National Guard, think 1962 Alabama and George Wallace, not wanting to integrate the schools, and so guess what? They sent the National Guard.

Think about Dwight Eisenhower, 1957, right? They didn't want in Arkansas to integrate there. So what happened? You don't need the consent of the state. The federal government can make the decision, as Eisenhower did, to send in the military and say, you're going to do this or else because we are protecting the constitutional rights of every single American.

And state consent, as I said, just look at 252 to 253, not required. And I'll tell you, there is, as I said, precedent for all of this. You've got the disorder, the riots in L.A. back in 1992, Rodney King stuff. You had Detroit riots back in 1967 with Lyndon B. Johnson, large-scale property destruction, breakdown of local control. National Guard being overwhelmed. Minneapolis fits squarely within that realm. In other words, when you look at that chaos on the streets, when you see them attacking federal vehicles and trying to remove weapons from federal vehicles. Guess what? This qualifies as large-scale property destruction. It's federal property. Breakdown of local control, National Guard, clearly

nowhere. Where is the National Guard? We haven't seen them. And this is like day after day after day, we're coming up on the weekend. We're going into the weekend, something has got to give. So you're failing here to protect the constitutional rights of every single American. And under 253 of the Insurrection Act, the President may act if citizens are deprived of equal protection or due process. The state cannot or will not enforce the law. And in this case, given the baddlem that's happening, they cannot or will not force the law. Again, 1957, Little Rock, Arkansas, Eisenhower, finding out that they had to go in there because the federal intervention was needed because the state governor had different intentions.

And so DHS's role is constitutionally coherent right now. And this is why you see them looking at how they're going to basically put this into action. Christy Noem saying she's spoken with the president about this this morning. You have the president putting out a note on true social about what is next. You even have now, despite, you know, the media, the media wants you to think that somehow none of this is going on. that, you know, just poor women like Renee Good, who are just out for a morning stroll. Yeah, right. You know, that's a whole other thing.

And we've talked about that. Even Joy Reed, the former fired ex-MSNBC host who's so liberal, she's just a total nut job, right? And kind of like speaks in a rather violent way. I'd say, well, she admitted that they've been honing in on these white liberal women to try and use them as pawns effectively. and try to get their agenda through. And I got news for them. You know what? The police are the police, whether it's the police or DHS or ICE,

and you know what, you're threatening them and maybe going to take their life? You decide to put the gas pedal on and head straight towards them. You're going to get exactly, sadly, I mean, it's a tragedy, right? Because nobody should have goosed her in the way that they did. The wife as well, like that is unnecessary for us to ever have to get to that point. But that's where we are. Again, the citizen journalist has been surrounded. We saw that. So Insurrection Act, it is. They're not going to have a choice. They're going to have to go to this. And state authorities basically can sometimes request the help, right? Because they cannot control

violence or unrest. But that's not needed. Again, as I said, go to 252 through 253. You do not need the state asking for help. Federal law cannot be enforced. If federal law can't be enforced. If federal law cannot be enforced due to insurrection, rebellion, or widespread obstruction. You can invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807. Constitutional rights are being denied. States refuse or fail to protect those rights. That's exactly what's happened to Minneapolis because you're putting so many people that are American citizens in harm's way.

Not to mention, I mean, the fraud alone. The fraud is insane. Insane. And I want to get to that because, listen. This is out of control and it's got to be managed. We're talking $700 million in the span of two years that left in cash in suitcases out of the Minneapolis airport for Dubai. Wow.

More than any other airport. More cash out of there and that's actually what they declare. Just imagine what they didn't declare. They're talking about $9 billion worth of fraud in the state of Minnesota. And it's expected to be much, much larger than that. I'm just going to go out of limb, okay? I think it's very suspicious that Ilhan Omar is trying to pretend like this is nothing. And believe me, she is.

She's actually telling reporters they're crazy for even talking about the $9 billion worth of fraud, which is a story that was reported by ABC News, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, okay? Everybody has reported this. This is not going out on a limb. I do realize that they're kind of burying it and they don't want it to be the lead, but they have on their websites actually reported that it is, $9 billion in fraud. We're going to go to Ilhan's reaction to that next, but first a quick word from one of our sponsors as we talk about the Insurrection Act, right? Being used in 1992,

1957, Arkansas. I mean, you can go all the way back to the Civil War, right? When you needed to invoke the Insurrection Act. And I really say these people have something up their sleeves and it's absolutely positively disgusting and should just make you shudder. We're talking bad. Okay? All right. On a happier note, on a much happier note, I am trying to take very good care of myself this year. And you know what? Part of that means getting a little extra collagen, the collagen peptides, which are so good for you. And I mean really good for you because, you know what they do? They support joints.

They support mobility. They promote healthy skin and healthy, you know, I love that, right? And healthy hair, muscle recovery and strength. All of this is really important. Guess what? especially as we age, which, you know, happens to all of us, unfortunately. And so I really this year have said, you know what, I'm going to do better. I'm going to do better. I'm actually taking more vitamins. I always take balance in nature, of course, but this, this is collagen peptide. And this natural

collagen peptide is really, to me anyway, going to be one of my key health goals in 2026. And I thought I'd tell you about it. And I'm thrilled that they joined us on the show here as a sponsor. They have no junk, zero sugars, sweeteners or fillers. They're third party tested. They have NSF certified certification for sport and Whole 30 approved. So, you know, it's clean. It's trustworthy. It's sustainably sourced.

It mixes seamlessly. You just dissolve it. I put in my coffee actually in the morning. That's the easiest way for me. You can dissolve it, though, into water, smoothies without all the clumps. I've tried some others, by the way. They can get kind of clumpy. So this is one of the reasons why I like Bubbs.

Also, it was voted 2024's Best Collagen by Health.com. The other thing I like is that Bub's natural is actually a tribute to former Navy SEAL Glenn Bubb Doherty. He was a real national hero. He laid down his life, saving Americans in Benghazi in Libya. And Glenn was a friend to many, many people, including the founder, Sean Lake of Bubbs. And Glenn is basically, Glenn's call sign in in the Navy was Bub. So Glenn Bub, Doherty stood for self-improvement, was always helping others. and that DNA is really woven into the Bubbs brand.

And so it's one of the things that we like about this company as well. I want to encourage you right now to live better, longer with Bubbs Natural for a limited time. Let me put it right here on the screen. If I can, for a limited time, you can go to bubsnatural.com, use Code Regan. Please make sure to use the code Regan, right? That's how we get credit. And I want you to do something that's healthy for you. and we want to take good care of the show too. So do me a favor. Make sure that you do use Code

Regan when you go to bubsnatural.com because for a limited time you can get 20% off. How did I bury the lead? The discount. Okay. Love discounts. You know me. Clarence, right? Ilhan Omar is freaking scared and you know what she should be. If I were her, I would be talking to my lawyers, I would be talking to my accounts and I'd try to make sure that everything was kind of buttoned up because they have a lot. going to be looking. I am so glad this all came out. Aren't you? Aren't you? Oh, man, is she terrified? She tries to say, like, I don't get it. I don't understand. This is not a story. You better believe it is, honey. I'm so exhausted in trying to ask what any of this, you know, information has led to you finding any criminals that you have indicted that explains why you are wasting

so much of our taxpayer resources and also terrorizing our communities in the amount of federal law enforcement agents that you have in the streets of our city and our state. There needs to be some sort of justification. It's kind of up-close and personal. How do you like that for a shot? A little wider would work. She's in trouble. She's in a serious, serious. serious amount of trouble. And the reason we know she's in trouble is because now she's all of a sudden like going wild. When people confront her about this, she starts hurling accusations at them. You know, it's totally trying to change the narrative, not answering any questions and like, it's the worst way to argue, right? Like, you know, somebody like says, hey, you know, ask you to answer

a question and you come back with a cheap shot. That's what she did to a reporter just yesterday. Meanwhile, she's threatening ice with all kinds of stuff. But first to the reporter, because Ilhan Omar is so scared that now she can't answer a simple question. Again, the headline is $9 billion in fraud. This has been reported by every major news outlet. $9 billion in fraud in the state of Minnesota, many linked to these Somali groups, many of whom, the majority of whom already they get majority of convictions are from Ilhan Omar. district. So this is her answer.

Yesterday you told me to please read when I asked you about the $9 billion fraud that you denied is happening, but I have it right here. I read. Look, Chairman Comer opens here on massive fraud scandal, $9 billion. That's what Comer believes because he's as smart as you are. It's not just Comer. It's Scott Besson, it's federal prosecutors, its house oversight, and it's Minnesota state rap. You can have that. Man, I think you need to get examined because your brain has been fried in some way and it's not okay. I really hope you get some help.

You and the Republicans here. Take care, okay, ma'am? I'm sorry, I can't go to the learning centers that you're running over in Minnesota, but I think you should perhaps read what's actually. I need one of those learning centers. I need one of those learning centers. Yeah, see it.

Whoa. Whoa. Oh, that sounds like a guilty woman to me. Ilan Omar being asked about the $9 billion in Minnesota fraud, and she basically tells the woman that she needs help and that she's really dumb and that clearly her brain is fried. That's the best you got? Wow. And that that reporter needs one of the learning centers.

And she's so upset by all of it. this, by the investigation that's going on, that she's now demanding an end to any kind of ICE funding. Good luck with that, Ilhan. Has adopted an official position to hold ICE accountable. Our caucus members will oppose all funding for immigration enforcement in any appropriation bills until meaningful reforms are enacted to end militarized policing practices. Guess what? It's not ending. In fact, the Insurrection Act is actually coming in, probably by tonight, if things get that bad. So, Ilhan, I'm sorry, but you know, I realize you're trying

to squeeze every stinking last dime out of everyone. I mean, Joni Ernst filled us in on your little plot to get another $1.031 million to some of your little pals that run smally restaurants in Minneapolis. Covered the other day, and one of our spending bills making a little bit of the money. its way through Congress was an $1 million earmark from Representative Ilan Omar of Minnesota, which was an earmark that was supposedly going to a substance abuse clinic, which actually happened to be housed in a restaurant and run by three individuals that share the same residential address according to their IRS paperwork. Tons of red flags. So this is what we saw.

with the fraud involving the daycare centers, now we see other earmarks coming directly from members of Congress where it seems fraud is being perpetrated as well. So I raised the issue, and fortunately, the House has now stripped that earmark out of that spending bill. But again, this is how easy money has been flowing to bad actors in Minnesota. I'm glad we got some good people there really and truly, but I'll tell you this. Scott Besson, he's out for blood. He's investigating Ellison. He's investigating Alasynne Omar.

And he's saying this is just the tip of the iceberg. Guess what? 9 billion in Minnesota, which is probably much larger. There's probably a whole bunch more elsewhere because the estimate from the general accounting office, this is a nonpartisan group. They're talking about $600 billion in actual fraud. 600 billion. So yeah, Ilhan, you're going to be in here. You got ice. You've got the agriculture department. You got the IRS. Look at them. They're carrying out bundles and bundles and bundles of

stuff out of those restaurants, out of those daycares. They're getting all the evidence together. And they're going to nail you. I'm telling you, they're going to nail you. You were the dumb idiot that decided maybe it would be okay. I conjecture. Okay, right? Everybody's innocent until proven guilty. But things like this, I don't like. What Ernst uncovered, is really suspicious, another million bucks to an addiction group operating above a Minneapolis-Somali restaurant? That's what she was trying to push through to. Anybody think it was really weird that the day she decided to marry Timmy Wynett, and she put it out as a press release was also the same exact day that she asked for the $250 million in feeding the nation fraud thing that was about to

happen? I mean, I kind of wonder about that. And we're trying to get an extra million bucks on the way out the door for goodness sakes with Generation Hope. She's in trouble. And by the way, this guy, Mynet is in trouble too. He's already getting an accusation of fraud against his winery. I mean, like, that's not good, right? Really, really not good. I mean, she's going down. I think it's going to be pretty epic. Just think about all the money, right? That they're talking about taking out of the country. $700 million. They went out of the country. This is being reported by our friends first over at Just the News had the story and it's unbelievable.

Scott Besson saying this is a big issue in Minnesota. 3,000. And we're also targeting the two counties here. And we're going to do enhanced surveillance. And from now on, anyone who wires money out from one of these money service businesses has to check a box. saying whether they are on public assistance. And if you were on public assistance, we are going to start pushing

that you cannot wire money out of the country. Oh, gosh. What if they lie and they don't tell us for public assistance? Well, then... That's a crime lying on a federal form. We're going to follow it up, and we are going to push that you can no longer do that.

The American people, our generosity, has been taken advantage of. Our generosity is funding El Shabab, and Iranian interests, it could be. Well, the money... I mean, this is really bad. The money is supposed to go for alleged asylum seekers and their families and children. And if you were wiring the money out of the country, one of two things must be true.

You are getting too much money and your benefits should be cut or you are part of this conspiracy. Where did that money come from? We're going to find it out. That's what Treasury does. IRS has a group called Criminal Investigations. Criminal Investigations was the group... Okay, so it's over. First of all, the temporary protection status, no more for the Somalis that are in the country. They're saying, you know what, you're perfectly fine to go back to your

country right now. It is no longer in the interest of the United States of America to be offering you this security, not to mention the president has actually cut off visas for 75 countries because of what's going on right now in Iran. Russia is included in that as well, but this is a big freaking deal. Topping it off, again, what I said about the story that was first brought to us by just the news, $700,700 million in the span of two years. I think I have it right here. I mean, he's just saying if the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't get this under control, we're going to put in place the Insurrection Act.

I would think that you could actually put in the Insurrection Act, not just because of the violence in the street and the total bedlam in the city of Minneapolis, but also the money that's being stolen, right? So if nobody cares, if Walsh is looking the other way, and Ellison's looking that way, And Ilhan Omar is the one introducing all the legislation that's going to get all the fancy packages with the federal money so that people can carry it out in suitcases to the tune of $700 million in the span of two years. Well then, well then you understand. Again, you're looking at the Insurrection Act because you can't keep control over any.

I mean, this is a violation of our constitutional rights. It's our taxpayer money that they are stealing. So you got to do it. It's not safe in Minneapolis. It's not economically safe for the rest of the country. And it is time to tell them who's boss. All right? And it's not you, Timmy Waltz.

It's not you, Ilhan Omar. And it's not you Keith Ellison. And it's not you Jacob Fry. In this case, in the interest of protection, the entire country, the United States of America, you've got to do what's right. And what's right is to invoke. The Insurrection Act. As I said, it's happened before plenty of times. I mean, go back to what, 1992, as we discussed Bush and Rodney King, 1957, okay, Arkansas. Look, I mean, it's not every day

that they do this, but when you have to do it, you do it. Because we've got organized violence. We've got interstate coordination. You've got people from other states that are coming there to protest, right? The professional protesters. We've got attacks on federal. officers and possibly their families like, that's not okay. You saw the attack last night. And they're all freaking out. Oh my gosh, the guy got shot in the leg, you know, lucky for him. It wasn't worse. And you've got the administration saying we completely, totally back our law enforcement officers, which is why we're going to have to escalate it here to this. State consent not required. So Timmy Waltz, you know, it might be a good idea if you do the right thing and you actually

try to step up to the plate. I want to go to Caroline Leavitt moments ago in the press briefing room where you had another liberal hack journalist. She called him out. It was good. It was epic. We need people standing up to this nonsense. Let's go to Caroline right now. Caroline Levitt, speaking on behalf of the White House, getting into it with the liberal media. Thanks, Caroline. Earlier you were just defending ICE agents generally. And earlier on, Secretary Nome spoke to the media, and she said, among other things, that they are doing everything correctly. 32 people died in ICE custody last year. 170 US citizens were detained by ICE, and Renee Good was shot in the head and killed by an

ice agent. How does that equate to them doing everything correctly? Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed? Are you asking me, my opinion? Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed it unjustified. Oh, okay. So you're a nice agent. a biased reporter with a left-wing opinion. What do you want me to do? Yeah, because you're a left-wing hack, you're not a reporter, you're posing in this room as a journalist,

and it's so clear by the premise of your question, and you and the people in the media who have such biases, but fake, like you're a journalist, you shouldn't even be sitting in that seat, but you're pretending like you're a journalist, but you're a left-wing activist, and the question that you just raised and your answer proves your bias.

You should be reporting on the facts, you should be reporting on the cases. Do you have the numbers of how many American citizens were killed at the hands of illegal aliens who ICE is trying to remove from this country? I bet you don't. I bet you didn't even read up on those stories. I bet you never even read about Lake and Riley or Jocelyn Nungray or all of the innocent Americans who were killed at the hands of illegal aliens in this country. And the brave men and women of ICE are doing everything in their power to remove those heinous individuals and make our communities safer. And shame on

people like you in the media who have a crooked view and have a biased view and pretend like you're a real honest journalist. Yeah. Well, you know, we know all about those journalists. Quote unquote, journalists. Given journalists a bad name, I'd say, over at all those liberal places, liberal ragsheets and liberal networks.

The Insurrection Act, we mentioned, it was used in 1992 by President Bush. It was used in 1957 by Dwight Eisenhower, and it was used in 18th, 1861. 1861, Abraham Lincoln relied on the Insurrection Act. It was a core legal part of why he was exerting authority then in the American Civil War. Lincoln called up state militias, federalized forces to suppress what was a rebellion from

the southern states in 1861. He deployed federal troops domestically without waiting for Congress. In other words, no need for Congress to sign off on this and used the Insurrection Act authority to enforce federal law in states where it had collapsed, i.e. Minnesota. But I get back to how this is so disgusting when you think about it, really at its core. It's disgusting what they're trying to do because of where they're trying to take us. We've set this all along. They're like trying to go us into some kind of civil war. So, all right, deep breath, right? My Irish gets up a little now and then. You know, this is why I'm better off over here, right? Because you just get to unleash me.

and I have to deal with prompters and middle management and all that good stuff. Remember, subscribe, share, like, all that, make a comment. I will tell you that this is where they seem to want to be taking us. And if they want to take us in that direction, yes, cool heads should prevail, but at the same time, we're now risking, either we leave, right? Like either you take federal law enforcement out and ICE is not able to do its job there in the streets and is not able to enforce federal law. If that's the case, then you really do have bedlam.

because they don't want this enforced in any way, shape, or form. They have told us over and over and over again, and I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but you saw Ilhan Omar, as recently as yesterday, saying that they want no ice. They want no immigration enforcement whatsoever. I mean, are you people stupid? I'm going back to her line of attack, right? She's telling the reporter she's stupid. This is how angry I'm getting.

You know, it's, I should be more eloquent than that. I mean, she is stupid, but, you know, anybody who allegedly married their brother so that somebody could get citizenship. Well, well, you know, if the shoe fits, there you go. I would say that this talk of, this talk of ending ice altogether by her is not smart because what kind of country do we have if there's no law enforcement, for our borders. The Congressional Progressive Caucus has adopted an official position to hold ICE accountable.

Our caucus members will oppose all funding for immigration enforcement in any appropriation bills until meaningful reforms are enacted to end militarized policing practices. Okay. So she wants no enforcement of our borders. Does this mean that, you know, more money is going to come out for her friends that are taking it all the way to Dubai? Federal probe of hundreds of millions of dollars in suspected Somali cash in luggage, leaving the Minneapolis airport. Again, this story, we first talked about this yesterday because it blew me away, like literally knocked me off my seat when I'm like $700 million in cash. Like, who carries cash anymore? Like, I don't even ever carry, okay?

It's one of those things. Like I'm like lucky to have 20 bucks on me. I, uh, you know, I, you know, cash is, cash is, uh, cash is king, but reality is most of us don't carry it out of the country. And, and we don't carry $700 million out of the country. I mean, what is going on? Again, this story being brought to us by just the news, TSA flagging nearly $700 million dollars detected in passengers' luggage, leaving the Minneapolis airport in the last two years. money. Don't catch yourself. I mean, if they had $9 billion in fraud, 700 is small. That's peanuts, right? We're not even talking about, you know, I guess it's not even, what, 10% of what's going on. They get $700 million and it's all apparently like Ben really ratcheted up since Timmy Wals came

into office, I guess because they knew everybody was going to look the other way. This is amazing. So Customs is reporting that some of these suitcases contained as much as $1 million in a single trip. And it raised suspicions among TSA agents, you think? I mean, how did this ever, how was this allowed? Officials said that most of the dollars detected in luggage involved a small number of money, careers of Somali descent. Okay, so this is that Hawala system I told you, all about, right? They're going on routine routes to Dubai via Amsterdam, usually from

Minneapolis, but sometimes from Seattle, Dallas, Columbus, and Atlanta. Minneapolis. Minneapolis travelers alone had $342 million in their luggage in 2024 and $349 million in 2025. The totals nationwide, likely to be much higher. This is super. sickening, okay? It's sickening. And this has to stop. I mean, it is not okay. You got to get with the program. As Scott Besson said, you come to our country, you get to learn you cannot steal. Heck, even Tim U. Walsh said that. He said, maybe we should do a better job at teaching people not to steal. I think that ship has sailed, buddy. The pirates, they sailed away with it, okay? They sailed right away with it. I mean, and it was all kinds of things. It was,

the daycare. It was housing fraud too. We've got new reports of wild amounts of money being stolen for the housing sector. Listen to our HUD Secretary Scott Turner. We have found that there is likely over $84 million in eligible assistance that was given to the state of Minnesota during the Biden administration included almost $500,000 in improper assistance to over 500 dead tenants. 84 million dollars of hard work and taxpayer money that was shelled out during the Biden administration in improper assistance and serving over 500 dead people with almost 500,000 dollars. This is a lack of stewardship, it's gross negligence. You better believe it. So again, this leads me back to

the Insurrection Act in that if there's so much negligence and inability, inability to actually enforce the law, then I don't think you really have a choice. And we're talking both from a violence standpoint and we're talking from an economic standpoint. People are being swindled. American taxpayers are being swindled out of all of their money and you're not going to do anything about it. You're just going to look the other way. I don't think that's okay. And I think that that actually escalates this in ways that perhaps Ilhan Omar and others simply could not have anticipated. And now we're at a stage where, yeah, you know, I want to go to Scott Jennings, who said this rather well. I'll play it for you because he made the point that, you know, when you have three on one, and forgive me, I said two on one earlier in the show.

But this is three on one with those guys going and trying to hurt a man with a shovel. What is that ICE officer supposed to do is his point that he is making? Let's listen here to Scott Jennings there on CNN. Isn't the point of using very careful policing tactics and making sure that the use of force is documented and justified, doesn't it protect agents in the situation that you're describing, right? Where an agent does find himself in a situation and he does something, he uses force in a justified way?

Doesn't an environment that encourages the community to support that agent? Big picture? I agree with you. If the community were being encouraged to support the agents, that would be good. They're being encouraged to confront the agents, to blow whistles in their faces, to agitate them. These police officers were being expected to exhibit superhuman patience that I would suspect none of us would be able to do. But the federal government. If we were being confronted this way, and again, I just go back to the story in question. Three illegal aliens beating a man with a shovel, what is he supposed to do?

The Minnesota fraud faucet keeps on dripping, and we're not talking daycares anymore. When a Somali goes to the doctor, magically, they forgot how to speak English, so they needed interpreter there. So the county brings in an interpreter at $100 an hour, minimum eight hours, to interpret what the doctor is telling the patient. Then remember, the interpreter has to get to the doctor's office or the hospital. How are they getting there? the transportation company, and then they got to get back home, and that patient had to get to the doctor's office. How? Transportation.

Oh, so how much are we paying the interpreters and their drivers? Almost 900 of them are Somali owned. So in the second video, Nick Sherlin and I went to 16 of them. I've actually been to about 70 of them. They don't exist. So transportation companies that transport no one. Sounds like something we should be looking into. Yeah.

So you see, you know, I realize the Treasury Secretary is promising this vindication, and I have no doubt that he's going to get it. They're putting a separate person outside of Pambandi in charge of looking into all of this, reporting to the president of the United States. So yes, there is going to be a lot that comes of this. But simultaneously, I would also say in the middle of it all, You know what? You've got such corruption there that you can no longer, you can no longer actually protect American taxpayers, American citizens, from both the predatory economic situation that's

going on there in the ground in Minnesota, nor from the actual violence that we're seeing unfold in the streets, leaving you with one option and one option only. I'm going to go back to it again. You know what? Insurrection Act, baby. 2007 and 2026. It's happening. All right, another good thing that's happening. I should point out, you know what? We're going to start to see some change on the health care front. The president making the announcement today that he is very proud to unveil his health care agenda. And I'm going to tell you, this is really important, all right? Because midterms are coming up. And we need to make sure that the president doesn't get an entire Congress full of Democrats or Senate full of

Democrats, right? So that would actually be a really bad, bad. That's the Ilhan Omar's dream. So one of the issues that's going to be so important in all of this is going to be health care. And we had John McLaughlin, who is the president's pollster on the show the other day. I thought he really spelled it out well, just how important this all is. And our friends over at conservatives for lower health care were just thrilled to team up with them on this. One of the sponsors of the Trish Regan show, because look, this is. is actually going to be what matters in this election cycle. Consider this. And this was one of the most important things I thought anyway that John said in that interview. I encourage you to go

back and watch it. 73 percent, ladies and gentlemen, 73 percent of American voters. And we're not talking conservatives. These are all American voters. 73 percent blame big pharma for high prescription costs. All right. That's really remarkable. And And it shows you that this is an issue. I'm just going to put it over on the side here. So you can still see me, right? This is an issue that people really do care about. And they're not going to stop caring. And they care about it across both party aisles. So 73% of voters blame big farmer for high prescription drug prices. 85% are concerned that pharma-backed government intervention. Thank you, John McLaughlin, the president's pollster. He's the most accurate,

by the way, 85% concerned that farmer-backed government intervention would increase costs. 80% believe Big Pharma is behind the proposals. And by the way, we've been telling you, yeah, yeah, you're not wrong to think that. Who do you think is buying up all the lobbyists and spending all that money advertising? They single-handedly are keeping the CBS Evening News, ABC Evening News, and World News tonight. Oh, I guess it's World News said out on ABC. What do they call NBC? I should know I used to work for them.

NBC Nightly News, okay? They're keeping them in business, these big pharma companies. So that's got to stop. Join me in this effort. I'm going to put here below where you can go. Actually, I think I have it. Do we have it? Do we have it?

Yes, pharma windfall.com. Go to pharma windfall.com. Join the effort with Conservatives for Lower Healthcare. See if we can get this address because it's really important. Again, the president coming out with his brand new plan. We can talk about a little bit more on tomorrow's show. But today, of course, the big story continues to be Minneapolis Insurrection Act. My prediction, and I tend to be right, is that it's going to happen.

He's going to have to actually invoke this. I'm curious to know what you guys think, as I'm looking at some of your comments here, and thank you for so much generosity, so many of you. I do think that they're not really going to have a choice other than to put this forward, and it's probably the right call at this moment in time because things are so out of control, both financially and from the physical standpoint. state rights over big government, somebody's saying, okay, I hear you hazy, 9, 263, I get, I get that we don't like big government and state rights are super important.

But when you see what's going on on the ground there and you see that chaos and everything that's unfolded, you can't tell me that that state is protecting the people of Minnesota. I mean, maybe they're protecting people that are there illegally. Maybe they are just so spiteful and hateful of the federal government at this point that they don't feel that the federal government has any rights to actually enforce the law. Let me remind you. Let me remind you, Barack Obama deported more people than any president in the history of the United States. And this used to be a Democrat talking point. This was part of their agenda.

It wasn't until Donald Trump came down the escalator in 2015. maybe it was 16 by that point. You know, with this beautiful wife, Melania, I'll never forget it. In the white dress, strapless, I was like, thank goodness. We're going to get rid of those ridiculous dresses that Michelle Obama wore where she really looked like she had some muscle up there going on, right? It was the worst cut ever. I say this as a woman, right?

You never want to cut the arm, like right there because it just makes you look like a football player. You want to actually have that indented or you want to have exactly what Melania had where you're showing off the collarbones, et cetera. I digress. The point being, it's fun, you know, I get to do that here. The point being that this was their baby up until Donald Trump. He stole it right out from under them. So I'm just saying that this is their platform.

And yet for them to act so crazed, it tells you everything, okay? They are just anti-Republican. They get the media right there in their back pocket acting all anti-Republican with them. And so this, ladies and gentlemen, is what needs to. to happen in the here and now as much as I believe in state rights. And I come from a little tiny state, born and raised in the great state of New Hampshire. Peace of my mind. I agree. Too much lawlessness. Way too much and you can't have them. I don't want to go back to 2020, BLM riots like we saw with property getting looted, with property getting destroyed. And we're on the verge of some bad

stuff happening. So let's change that. Please make sure I told you this guys yesterday. day and I'm going to remind you. I don't know what's going on with the algorithm, but so many have you been unfortunately desubscribed, my own producer, my own producer. Sal, Sal, what, you know, Sal's like, this is the third time it's happened to me, Trish, and I watch your show every single day. He's watching live as this is all going on. And he sent me a screenshot. It's not exactly the most attractive screenshot of yours truly, but I'll play it for you anyway. Okay, whoa, So take a look at that. Look at that little bell right next to the join thing.

It looks like he's still subscribed or maybe not. They wanted him to join. So what the heck is that about? And then he didn't even have his bell. So, you know, he had to turn that back on. So I'm going to remind all you guys. If you're watching on Spotify, thank you. Hey, if you're not watching on Spotify, I did put that in the show links.

It would mean the world to me if you could go over and subscribe. By the way, we don't have that many subscribers over there. So, you know, I definitely read all the comments for sure. We only get like 30 a day. So I see every single one of them. Here I try to make sure I do see them. So please make a comment there below. It helps the algorithm as well.

But we got to do something to fix this, okay? Really important. We have to fix this. So do me the favor of subscribing and turning that bell on for all notifications. That way you know exactly when I'm live here every single day on the Trish Regan show. Thank you for all you guys. do really. As I said, I'm so thrilled to be here. I'm so thrilled to be out of the mainstream media. I mean it. Like, I love my job. And there are days when it's, you know, harder than others.

But bottom line, I would not trade this for the world. And I promise you, one thing, I will always be here with you together. We are on the front lines of history. And we are not to be taken advantage of again. We have a voice collectively. It's important that you subscribe. So you're part of the that community. Thank you for being here and I will see you again live tomorrow.
