Starting point is 00:00:01 Welcome to the big show. We've got deportation talk, really ratcheting up. For one, Zohran Mamdani, and I'll tell you, they may be onto something here. So DOJ needs to get on it. And I will tell you why. We're going to talk about that. Plus, Leticia James, wow. Wow, she should be pretty darn embarrassed today if the woman has any shame whatsoever, which obviously is you and I both know is quite doubtful. but Letitia James just got her little $18 million evaluation on Mar-a-Lago, completely blown out of the water. Wait till you hear how much this thing is worth, according to Forbes. I can't wait to tie.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Oh, and we've got to talk about Mark Wynne Mullen. He got confirmed, and you know what? I get some videotape that nobody else is showing, in the mainstream media, of course, because, you know, God forbid they show this. It's like the hidden tape, but we're showing it right here on the Trish Rican show. So stay tuned for that. Quick shout out to the markets and my little company, 76 Research. We've got, you know, one of our stock picks up like 120 some odd percent.
Starting point is 00:01:07 It's in the last few weeks, so that's pretty great. And then you can see the other portfolios there. I encourage you to go check that out. 76research.com. Mamdami lied. That is the allegation coming from some top people in Congress right now. Zora and Mamdami, they're out for you. You know, and it wasn't just because of the prayer.
Starting point is 00:01:29 which was, you know, something, right? Really, really something. He's being accused of lying on his citizen. Going all the way back to 2018, and you see a couple members of Congress, specifically one Andy Olles and also another Randy Fine down in Florida want the DOJ to do something about this. So they're pressuring Pam Bondi,
Starting point is 00:01:59 right now. I know, I know Pam, Pam, Pam, Pam, Pam. You know, I'm going to show you some tape later on of Janine Piro, who's been completely unleashed. The president is actually saying, you know what, Jeannie, go for it. Judge Janine, she's like off to the races. She's going after Jerome Powell. And I would just say, you know, maybe we need to redirect some of that energy at one Zohan Mamdami, because this is a pretty serious allegation coming from Ogles. Now, it actually materialized over the summer, But now, in this moment in time, with him, you know, doing the prayer breakfast and we've got the strikes on Iran going on, it's kind of become a front and center issue. And so now the pressure is being put on Attorney General Pambandi to do something about this. Because according to Andy Ogles, and actually he cites a lot of public reports in this, Mr. Mamdami was expressing solidarity with individuals that do not support the United States of America.
Starting point is 00:02:53 specifically this little political group that he's part of, that's basically the Communist Party, and it's backed by China. We will talk about that. He also says that the guy in his little, I guess, music career that he had, because, you know, what is he, 30-some-odd years old, and he's had multiple careers as an actor, as a rapper, as a, as a politician. He rapped about Free the Holy Land Five, My Guys, and the Holy Land Foundation was convicted in 2008 for providing material support to Hamas, a designated, as you know, foreign terror organization.
Starting point is 00:03:28 So publicly praising the foundation's convicted leadership as, quote, My Guys, he writes, raises serious concerns about whether Mr. Memdami held affiliations or sympathies. He failed to disclose during the naturalization process back in 2018. So that would come with it, the penalty of denaturalization. And let me just tell you, by the way, Latisha James, as we said, is in more trouble today, in part because of the valuation that was just disclosed on Mar-a-Lago, which was so far. far off like multiples, many, many, many, many multiples. We're talking decimal places, okay, like multiple numbers off. Leticia James, she loves this ma'amie. He's on her team.
Starting point is 00:04:05 She was out there talking about his great rap music when she was trying to support his run for mayor. But he got his political career starting here. He was a student at Bronx Science. Yeah, science. Wait a minute. He was the vice president. of the Bronx science student body. So that qualifies him. In addition to that, Zoran, he had a brief hip-hop career. Yes. And although, and although I may,
Starting point is 00:04:41 Jamani and I may disagree, but hip-hop started in the Bronx. Okay, okay, all right. So she acknowledges his hip-hop career. Well, so does Andy Ogles in this letter. again, as I point out saying, his hip-hop career consisted of rapping favorably about an organization that has been convicted of providing material support to terror organizations. So can I ask you why we have a guy like that as the mayor of New York? Can I ask you why we ever allowed him citizenship in the first place? Well, maybe he didn't actually disclose everything because you see,
Starting point is 00:05:13 I've showed you the citizenship form. There's this little form on the N-400, a little question they ask where have you ever been involved in anything that would be considered, you know, at odds with what the United States is about, any possible groups? And you have to check yes or no. And if you check yes, then you have to provide them with information about this particular group that you're involved with. Well, his particular group happens to be this one right here, the Democrat Socialists of America. You can see, you go to their website right now.
Starting point is 00:05:48 No war with Iran. They're very proud of that, right? Like, of course. They're funded by China. We've done a lot of reports on this here on this show. Neville Singman is the guy, and the New York Times and the Daily Beast. So these are like super left-win publications. I only cite them because, you know, it's one thing for me to say it or for Fox News to say it, and it's another thing for the New York Times. I think collectively everybody knows what this guy is up to, and he's originally an American citizen who now lives in China and is a propaganda machine. So he pays effectively for influence all over the web and supports this Democrat Socialist of America. Now, Congress has been repeatedly trying to get him in for testimony.
Starting point is 00:06:29 There is now, I believe, a warrant out for his arrest. The last time we spoke with Anna Polina Luna, the representative from Florida, she said, he's going to be under arrest if he ever steps foot in this country because we want him for questioning. They want to ask him some questions, and he has not come forward. Again, this is the guy I'm talking about Neville Singman, and he's the big backer of Democrat Socialists of America, an organization that is primarily backed by, well, our enemies, okay? Our enemies. And so how is it the Mamdami is part of this group? And how is it that he was ever led into this country, given that he was part of this group?
Starting point is 00:07:02 Let's go to an interview that Newsmax did, my friend Rob Schmidt, with another than Andy Ogles, who wrote this letter. Here we go. 2018, when he was naturalized, he failed to disclose some of the things that he had been doing, one of which was joining the Democrat Socialists of America. That's a communist organization, which, quite frankly, at that time, would have disqualified him from becoming the United States citizen. So what we're encouraging to do is the Justice Department to look into the timing of his joining that organization. It would have been anti-American.
Starting point is 00:07:35 It would have fit the definition of what he would have been required to disclose. and quite frankly would have made him most likely ineligible to become a naturalized citizen. Okay. So how does a guy like that get citizenship? I mean, by the way, it was during the Trump administration, so there's sort of no excuses, unless, of course, he lied. And so that's the big question. If he lied, well, you see, that opens up the big legal avenue for them to pursue deportation. And so that's what they're pushing on Pambandie right now.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Like I said, maybe they'd be better off going to Janine Biro and seeing what she can do. I don't know if she can do anything because she's there in D.C. She wouldn't have the jurisdiction. But you understand the bottom line here is that he seems to have had an allegiance, given his rap lyrics, right, with an organization that supported Hamas. He seems to have had this allegiance. He wasn't shy about it. He's part of the Democrat Socialists of America,
Starting point is 00:08:31 which is a communist group, started by a bunch of communists. And they have a Marxist philosophy. And I'm sitting there going, how is this possible? in New York City. By the way, look at what's going on in the world right now. Okay, in New York City elected this guy mayor. It's pretty darn tragic, but there is something that can be done about it, should be done about it, and this is why we need the DOJ to step up and do its job. Not to mention, the guy wants to tax everyone to death. Believe it or not, he's not going to have anyone left to tax. I mean, already, anybody who can work anywhere else in the country is leaving New York City. You
Starting point is 00:09:08 understand what's going on. He's driving everybody out. This happens every time. It happened in Venezuela. Heck, it happened in France. And you remember when Alon came up with his, what was it, 80%? Something crazy tax on the wealthy. And they all just said, bye-bye. Or foe. Right? We're out of here. They're like, see you later. Out, out, out. And that's exactly what has happened in the city of New York, which is why now they really have no tax revenue. I mean, why the heck would you live there? You get nothing for your money. You can't send your kids to public school. You can't depend on the police because, you know, they're slashing the police budgets.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Every chance they get, and not to mention they don't want anybody getting arrested, for goodness sakes. And then he's like, well, you have a duty to pay more. This guy has got to go. He is a Marxist. He is at odds with who we are as Americans. And at a time like this, we don't need them. We really don't need them. So I'd say, Pam Bondi, get everyone on board and start doing your due diligence.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Go and pull those forms. I want to see the N-400 and see what he checked off. When it comes to that particular box, have you ever been involved with an organization that is at odds with America's interest? Here we go. He wants to tax, tax, tax. Listen.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Amidst being in the wealthiest city, in the wealthiest country, in the history of the world, we already see an exodus of working in middle-class New Yorkers. So I don't have a hesitation in asking those who make the most amount of money in this city or the most profits in the city to pay a little bit more so that everyone can actually stay in this city.
Starting point is 00:10:34 By the way, do you see everybody, like, standing around him? They all look like little Marxists. They really do. I mean, it looked like that was a scene right out of Venezuela, if you ask me. Unbelievable. He's got to go. Okay, so Pam, get on it. You know who else probably deep down when it's all said and done really wants her to get on it?
Starting point is 00:11:04 Our friend, Kathy Hokel. because Kathy Hokel has no money to do anything to the point where she's out begging, and now the billionaires are laughing in her face. I got a great clip. I've got to show you of John Casmetidis. He's the CEO of Gristadis. Big, big, big grocery store in New York. He's a big, big, big, big billionaire.
Starting point is 00:11:24 And he's like, I mean, for goodness sakes, the guy he wants to take over his own business, right? He wants to, like, create these communist free grocery stores because everything should be free. Well, nothing's free in this world. Let me tell you. including listening to this podcast because I have an ad I'm going to play for you right now. Actually, this is like, this is not entirely an ad. This is actually a passion of mine. A friend of mine told me about this company in all seriousness.
Starting point is 00:11:49 He lives in Florida and he got this tree from it. I'm like, what do you mean? He's talking to me one day and there was like all this construction going on at his house. And I'm like, what is going on, buddy? And he's like, oh, I got a tree. And I'm like, yeah, they're putting in a tree. And I'm like, yeah, they're putting in a tree. And I'm like, where did you get it?
Starting point is 00:12:06 He told me about fast growing trees. Fast growing trees.com. And I'm like, are you serious? I didn't know you could just buy a tree off the internet. Well, sure enough, you can buy a tree off the internet. And this is amazing. So like I lost a big chunk of my time today because I was staring at trees. Kid you not. And, you know, they've got all these flowering trees.
Starting point is 00:12:28 And I've actually doing some work on the yard. And so I'm like engrossed in this website. I actually really like hydrangees. We're going to get to those in a second. I have tons of hydrangees all over my yard because believe it or not, I'm a little teeny, itty, itty bit afraid of bees. And hydrangees do not attract bees. Who knew, right?
Starting point is 00:12:48 So anyway, they've got this great site and you can go and figure out, okay, well, I live here, so what actually works for this particular area? And so they have it geographically set up and they've got, I thought really, really good prices. So I'm psyched.

I mean, really scrambling.
Starting point is 00:14:24 She's just been flat out embarrassed. I'm telling you humiliated because she's begging, begging, begging billionaires to come back to New York. Please help me. Please help me. I got Mam Dami. And he wants to give free this, free that, free food, free health care, free child care. And John Casmetidis, who's a wonderful guy, by the way.
Starting point is 00:14:43 I've known him for a lot of years, and he's very practical. He's a great conservative, a great supporter of the president. And he runs all the grocery stores, well, the Gristadies brand in New York City. He actually also runs ABC Radio, for those of you that may listen to ABC Radio in New York. Anyway, John Casmetis went on to Fox, and he's like, are you kidding me? lady? No way. Like, nobody's coming back. She's like, please come back and please tell your friends to come back. They've all relocated to Florida, where the taxes and the weather are so much
Starting point is 00:15:17 better. Here's John. I mean, what do you say to her? This is a joke. I mean, nobody that's gone down to Florida is coming back. What was the old expression? Slim and none? I won't use the third word. Slim and none about People that went to Florida, went to Texas, they're not coming by. She's kind of saying the quiet part out loud, right? We just want you back so you can fund our far-left policies in the state. It won't happen. It won't never happen.
Starting point is 00:15:47 And right now, I'm worried about New York because they want to lower the estate tax. And I'm over a certain age. I'm eligible for estate tax. My kids will hate me if I don't move to Florida because they want, But they're punishing not only the rich. They're not only punishing the billionaires and the millionaires. They want to reduce the estate tax from $7 million down to $750,000. Everybody's house in New York is worth $750,000.
Starting point is 00:16:18 So they want to punish everybody. It just doesn't work. They don't realize that. I should come back so I could feed the migrants. Do you hear that? His point on the estate tax is a good one, too, because they want to hit everybody who's $750,000. So listen, I mean, it's kind of the reality. You have a little tiny, little place in Queens. Your place is probably worth anywhere from, you know, $600 to $800,000. So you are going to get the
Starting point is 00:16:49 middle class, the working class in there when you say we're going to tax everyone on the way out with an estate tax of 50%. I mean, this is nuts. This is totally nuts. But we go back to the Democrat Socialists of America, funded by China. Okay. So we've got a total commie who's not. now running New York. And now Kathy Hokel's like, what do I do? What do I do? So she's gotten like flat out leveled by Casamatidis and she'll continue to get leveled by everyone because nobody wants to be there. And yet she groveled. She's given it a shot. Please, please, please, won't you come home? Isn't there a song like this? Kathy, I think you need to start singing.
Starting point is 00:17:28 I know New Yorkers are exasperated. They feel that everything's stacked against them. They're not getting ahead. Their rents are too damn high. Their child care costs are high. Their utility bills. And thank you to Washington. We're going to have higher prices at the pump we already do.
Starting point is 00:17:46 Everything just seems so hard for people. So I understand that frustration. You should join me in the North Country yesterday in Ogdensburg in Watertown. And people are so upset about the tariffs, raising the cost of everything. So there is this anxiety, which is real, and we're continuing to address the affordability crisis, which I believe should be the number one priority
Starting point is 00:18:06 of this legislative session. What can we do to take off some of that pain that New Yorkers are feeling that I hear about literally every day? What I want to make sure we are smart about is having a system in place where it's not just taxing for the sake of taxing and being conscious of the facts
Starting point is 00:18:25 that I need people, who are high net worth to support the generous social programs that we want to have in our state. Right? Now, there are some patriotic millionaires who stepped up. Okay, cut me the checks. I mean, just if you want to be supportive, but maybe the first step should be go down to Palm Beach and see who you can bring back home because our tax base has been eroded. So I philosophically don't have a problem.
Starting point is 00:18:52 It is like I have to look at the fact that we are in competition with other states who have less of a tax burden on their corporations and their individuals. And I would say remote work changed everything. There were people who could only work in an office in Manhattan and work in New York State. And they were captives to our state. They were going to stay. We saw that that's not the case.
Starting point is 00:19:12 I mean, Wall Street businesses looking at Texas, they're not going there because they have a nicer governor. I know that for sure. But they're going there because of the tax rate. We have to be smart about this. But we can fund what we want. to fund with what we already are taking it. Guys, I think she's like going to become a conservative on us.
Starting point is 00:19:32 I mean, she's like, what do I do? Taxes are too high and they're going to make them worse in New York. And it's one thing, like she can say, okay, I'm not going to restate taxes, and she shouldn't, okay, she can't. She will not get reelected. She probably won't get reelected right now. I think that the handwriting's on the wall because she can't pay the bills because all the billionaires have left.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Like, think about what have been. resource that was, not just for New York City. It's 4% in New York City, but somewhere around 11% in New York State. Boy, am I glad I don't live there anymore? Getting hit with the four and the 11 plus the federal. Anyway, everybody's like, I'm out of here. See ya. See you later, New York. And so she's stuck saying, I have no way to pay for anything. Mam Dami's demanding this, that, and the other. I mean, he's talking about putting in all kinds of taxes himself, like the New York. York City, you know, we're going to up the estate tax. I don't think he can do it. I think legally he's going to have a huge problem. I know the president has threatened to intervene on a
Starting point is 00:20:33 legal basis if needed, but he's gotten so crazy. I mean, you can do what he wants for, I guess, if he gets city council involved and they decide that they're going to raise the tax from 4% on income in New York City to 10%, but what's going to happen? Everybody's going to leave, okay? Like, everybody's going to leave. At some point, you're not even going to have like J.P. you Morgan Chase and Jamie Diamond, who ought to be your best friend, Mamdami, right, because he's still keeping workers there, financial workers, they're all going to leave. If you get a job offer at another firm in Florida, you're taking it, right? Because your family's going to have a better life. You're not going to have to deal with miserable winters where Mamdami's begging people
Starting point is 00:21:15 to shovel snow. And he wants two forms of ID, not to vote, just to shovel the snow. It's over. It's over. needs to get its act together. Maybe it'll figure its way out, but the damage has been done. Listen, you go to Miami, I was just in Miami. My little boy said to me, Mom, it feels just like New York. And I said, yeah, it feels like New York because everybody's coming here. New York with better weather. You remember this lady, right? Latisha James is getting a reality check. Ooh, yeah, that's going to come back to haunt her because they're still going after her. in New York courts on civil rights charges. They've got some other charges that just emerged.
Starting point is 00:22:11 I'm going to tell you about this in a second. But first of all, let's go back to that original snafu over the Mar-a-Lago valuation. Remember, the President of the United States estimated it somewhere around a half a billion dollars. And she said, no, no, no, it's only worth $18 million. Well, last I checked, she's a politician. She's a bad lawyer and a politician. She is not an investor. She is not a real estate mogul.
Starting point is 00:22:45 She is not even a real estate agent. So why is she trying to sit there and tell the president, know your home is only worth $18 million? I mean, we've looked at it, right? That's worth, I told you at the time, hey, we're all going to get together, right? We're going to buy it because if it's 18, we're going to make a pretty penny. and it was not, you know what ensued. We had an entire lawsuit.
Starting point is 00:23:08 And the next thing you know, she's hitting him with a $500 million fine for his $500 plus million property. That's the punchline I've got to get to. I'm saving it, right? Because Forbes just did evaluation on this thing. And oh my goodness, remember? I mean, the whole thing went to the appeals court. The appeals court was like, yeah, you don't have the right to do this,
Starting point is 00:23:31 Letitia. They actually wouldn't even like the woman who was representing Latisha because they have to get a smarter lawyer for that because, you know, it's the appeals court. They can't just have a politician in there. So this woman was supposed to be the smart cookie coming in. And she could barely get her name out. And they were like, see ya. May it please the court, Judith Vail for the New York Attorney General's office. All of the defendants repeatedly violated. Ms. Vail, can you identify any previous case which the Attorney General sued under Executive Law, 6312, to upset a private business transaction that was between equally sophisticated partners, with the supposed victim had the ability and legal obligation to discover the allegedly misrepresented
Starting point is 00:24:15 matters by conducting its own due diligence, where the supposed wrongdoer advised the supposed victim through written disclaimers to conduct its own due diligence and to draw its own conclusions, where the alleged misrepresentation almost entirely concerned inherently subjective valuations of properties and businesses. Yes. And where the victim never complained about any fraud of the transactional losses from it. Because I've gone through the cases which you've cited,
Starting point is 00:24:44 and all of them always involved the consumer protection aspect. It involved protection of the market. Several responses. And I want to add to his question, and little to no impact on the public marketplace. I loved that part, okay? I loved that part. So she's got this big case, Leticia James. It consumes her, right? She promised the voters. What was she going to do? She was going to go after Donald Trump all day long. And that's all she did was go after Donald Trump saying, well, he shouldn't have said that his house was worth this because it was really only worth $18 million. Well, guess what? Dun-da-da-da-da-dram wall, please. Forbes came out with its list of all the world's billionaires and Donald Trump is on there, and they factored what his worth might be, and guess what took a big, big front and center stage.
Starting point is 00:25:39 How much is Mar-a-Lago worth? Forbes did the calculation, and they're pretty good. I mean, I know this because the Forbes Billioners List is like the real deal. When I worked at Bloomberg, we came out with a billionaires list as well, and Bloomberg was trying to compete with Forbes, and like, there's, like, very stringent requirements that go into this, they're actually quite involved and they have enormous research that goes into the determination of people's overall status and their wealth. And they spent a lot of time looking at Mar-a-Lago and guess what they figured out. This thing is not worth $18 million.
Starting point is 00:26:19 I mean, wow, Letitia, you know, you need to get out more, I guess. They found that it was worth $560 million. $560 million. It's up nearly $370 million from a year ago and more than triple its 2018 value. What did I tell you way back when the real estate is kind of in the eye of the beholder and you really can't actually fully, totally, really assess something until it sells, but you have comps and all the comps suggested that it was worth way more than $18 million. I mean, it was preposterous that she came up with that. But think of that. So she was like, how dare you?
Starting point is 00:27:01 How dare you put this massive valuation on it? He's like, oh, how dare you tell me my brother is only worth $18 million? And then you had the audacity to sue me and then try and charge me $500 million for it all. I mean, that has to be fixed because think about what it sets as a precedent in New York. You'll wonder why everybody's leaving. You got a commie mayor. You got a poor governor who's begging. and everybody can come home and they're laughing in her face saying,
Starting point is 00:27:26 I don't think so. And you have an attorney general who, if you are on the wrong side of the political aisle, is well able, apparently, because they haven't stopped her yet, to go after you. And to say, no, your property that you bought in Florida, not even in my state, that your banker agreed to give you the money on, is worth a teeny, teeny, teeny, teeny, teeny, tiny fraction of what, or I think it's worth a teeny, teeny, teeny, tiny fraction of what it's actually worth.
Starting point is 00:28:05 I mean, this woman was bunkers. Bunkers. But of course we knew that. I mean, it's unbelievable remember. Here, I want to go back to an ABC report. For those of you just joining us, ooh, Leticia, she's like a thorn in my side. That woman, if she gets away with this, I can tell you, like my faith in government. will be destroyed, totally destroyed. Listen to this.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Trump was held liable for exaggerating his wealth and inflating the value of his real estate, so banks would give him low interest loans. Trump insisted the banks like doing business with him. They said no victim, no one got harmed, the banks got paid back. So no harm, no foul. Why is that not the case in your view? So financial frauds are not victimless crimes. He engaged in this massive amount of fraud. It wasn't just a simple mistake, a slight oversight. The variations were wildly exaggerated, and the extent of the fraud was staggering. Trump said the penalty against him would drive other businesses out of New York.
Starting point is 00:29:08 We'll appeal, we'll be successful, I think, because, frankly, if we're not successful, New York State is gone. But the state's attorney general told us she's not worried. And last I checked, tourism is up, and Wall Street is doing just fine. Well, you know, last I checked, your governor was begging every billionaire to talk to their billionaire friends and try and get them to come back from Palm Beach. You know, Letitia, you might have single-handedly helped drive the valuation on that thing up. I mean, that's the irony of it when you really think about it because they're all like, get me the H-E-D-E-Double L out of here.
Starting point is 00:29:44 I don't want to deal with an attorney general like that. I don't want to deal with a commie mayor like that. And I don't want to deal with a governor who has no backbone and thinks that everybody should just pay more because they can. You know, pay more. Just come home and, like, pay more. Wouldn't that be great? Because then we can have, you know, free daycare centers.
Starting point is 00:30:05 Because, you know, the Somalis, they need to stay employed. You know, we all got our thing, right? You know, the Irish became cops. I've seen a lot of nail salons dominated by certain ethnic groups. And apparently when it comes to daycare centers that aren't really daycare centers, You also have a very specific ethnic group. I mean, who knew? You didn't even have to work.
Starting point is 00:30:27 You could just file a bunch of paperwork and hopefully know a few people. Like Ilhan? I don't know. Those allegations are something else, I'll tell you. But Leticia, let's just say, we're all on to you now. He's called me venomous. We will fight back to your attempt to bring Trumpism to New York City.
Starting point is 00:30:50 He's called me disgraceful. A concept that they stole the Supreme Court. He's called me radical. Listen. Yes. We know he's called. He's called me a racist. We've got to stand up to an administration,
Starting point is 00:31:28 which is two male, too pale, and too stale. Wow. Too pale and too stale. Two male. Thank you. She's a bad lady.
Starting point is 00:31:50 She's a bad. I feel I sound like him now. This is a dirty jazz. General, Leticia, that went out and campaigned on, I will get Trump. I will get Trump, no matter what I'll get Trump. I promise I'll get Trump. We have two tapes on her now that I've come out since the trial because people took tapes of her because they couldn't believe her ranting and raving like a lunatic.
Starting point is 00:32:16 But this is the Attorney General of New York State, Patricia James, and she shouldn't be allowed to be Attorney General. She's defrauded the public with this trial. She said that Mar-a-Lago, she convinced the judge at Mar-a-Lago, was worth in Papua, Florida, the most expensive land in the world, I guess, and the most expensive houses, definitely in the world, that Mar-Alauga, the biggest house, the most spectacular place in Polo, Florida, was worth $18 million when it's worth approximately,
Starting point is 00:32:45 could be close to 100 times that amount. And based on that testimony, and based on her convincing the judge in Mar-Lago was worth $18 million, million dollars instead of a billion to a billion five which we sell very easily which we've already proven but we'll have people come up and say that and prove it the most important people the brokers that make the sales but based on that he ruled against me he ruled fraud i mean he said fraud they are the fraudulent people because they ruled a house that was worth 18 they put down is worth 18 million and it's worth maybe close to a hundred times that amount
Starting point is 00:33:23 Well, I don't know if it's 100 times that amount, but let's face it, it's definitely, definitely, definitely. That was a weird thing with the camera, right? Whoa. Did you see that? Like little inverse? If you're listening on Spotify, thank you. You can watch on Spotify too.
Starting point is 00:33:40 And if you're watching on YouTube, I so appreciate it. I see so many familiar faces here. Ian, you made it tonight. Or a little bit later than normal tonight. I was actually recording earlier my 76 research show, and that'll come up. out probably tomorrow on the 76 research channel on YouTube. So that was the holdup here today. But anyway, yeah. Letitia, it's over, honey, bunny. It's over. You know why? It's not just that the Mar-Lago valuation came out, proving you so utterly dead wrong. It's that you may actually have
Starting point is 00:34:14 to pay a legal price here via, gosh, funny how these things come around like a little boomerang. Michael Cohen, we were just talking about this the other day. He recently appeared on Lara Trump's show, a friend, Lara Trump. She's wonderful, wonderful woman, and I've actually gone on that show myself quite a bit. And he had some interesting things to say to her. Don't forget, remember what Michael Cohen said just about maybe five, six weeks ago. He came out with a substack, and he said, from the time I began meeting with lawyers from the Manhattan DA's office
Starting point is 00:34:48 and the New York Attorney General's office in connection with their investigations of President Trump and through the trials themselves. He went on to say, I felt pressured and coerced, he said, and testimony that would, to give testimony that would satisfy the government's desire to build these cases against and secure judgment and convictions against President Trump. Well, there's a very interesting choice of language in there. Coerced is a very important legal term. He goes on to knock both Letitia and Alvin Bragg is saying,
Starting point is 00:35:17 you know, they basically had the same playbook, and they were both competing to see who. who could take down Trump the fastest. And so as he fit into this, he was being forced, he said, coerced, coerced into giving negative information in order to kind of save himself. And he went on with Lara Trump recently on her podcast and talked about that and then had a few other things to say, including about the media. In other words, he was in a pretty thankless position.
Starting point is 00:35:44 And, you know, not that I fully trust the guy because let's be honest. I mean, I think he may have had to lie. sort of what he's coming out with right now. And if that's the case, I do want to point out that she could face up to 20 years. Coorsion is very, very, very serious things, and there's very different kinds of levels of it, and there are different meanings under the law, but basically you could be looking at five years, you could be looking at 20 years, you could be looking at more. This is very serious stuff, and they're asking that they make sure they get all the communications between Michael Cohen and Letitia James, because they want the text messages, they
Starting point is 00:36:20 want the letters, they want any phone calls, et cetera, so that they know what she specifically may have said to him that would be defined as a form of coercion. Here is Michael with Lara. You kind of, I imagine at this point, must feel with all the pressure you've gotten from the Democrats, I assume from the media, that you've kind of been used as a tool to some extent just to simply attack Donald Trump, but also to just promote a political viewpoint. Do you feel like that? I do. In fact, something that I think both of us understand all too well that with public life,
Starting point is 00:37:03 there are expectations placed upon you. And it's sad because political groups and these media outlets, these independent outlets as well, it's not just that they hope. They demand that your voice reinforces the narrative that they already believe. You see, once your words are shaped by, you know, what one side wants to hear, the problem is you lose credibility. And the responsibility of anyone, like someone like yourself, who has a television show, you have this podcast, you have a loud voice, the responsibility of someone speaking to. publicly is to remain independent of those pressures. And my approach to this is simple. I will always say what I believe. I will always say what I know to be accurate and truthful,
Starting point is 00:38:01 even if it doesn't perfectly align with the expectations of either political party or the media outlet itself. I mean, basically CNN, MS Now, they've both basically blacklisted me because They don't like the narrative that I'm portraying. Hmm. Yeah, well, they have a narrative. They blacklist me, too. Just saying. You know, they begrudgingly bring Lara Trump on,
Starting point is 00:38:31 and then Jake Tapper screams at her about how dare she say that Biden doesn't really seem like he's quite himself, and she wonders if he's ever going to get his words out. And Jake Tapper says, how dare you? Don't you have any empathy for kids that stutter? And she's like, I don't know, he had a stuttering per. I mean, the only point is, is like, those media organizations, I'm so done with them, you should be done with them, nobody can watch them because they're so nauseating in their point of view.
Starting point is 00:38:56 And of course, they're not going to put Michael Cohen on anymore because Michael Cohen came on. And he's like, yeah, you know, Trump, you know, isn't as bad as you all think. And as soon as he said that, well, woo, things turned around fast, right? Really, really, really fast. I'm looking at the comments and Don, did you say something about gold and silver that you're buying gold and silver right now? Because you fit in perfectly with my next, my next advertiser. I'm so thrilled to welcome to the show. Our new sponsor, Kirk Elliott, Precious Metals, KEPM.com, forward slash Trish, Dr. Kirk Elliott, Ph.D.
Starting point is 00:39:34 You might have seen him the other day. He was on Monday's show. We had a couple clips from him. Great guy. It's a wonderful business. It's a very attentive business, right? So if you're going to be buying gold, and this is the real gold, okay, this is the real stuff, this is not some synthetic, this is actual, actual gold.
Starting point is 00:39:48 If you're going to buy physical gold or physical silver bullion, you know, historically all proven to be good hedges against inflation, you know, and I'm talking about the real stuff, real stuff that you can actually physically own, they're really helpful as a partner with you. And I say that they're very customer service-oriented, and I spent a lot of time talking to Dr. Kirk at Ph.D. about all of this. You know, we actually have been talking for the last couple of months because it was important to me that whatever I advised you guys to do, and it's not advice, I should be careful about it because I'm not a financial advisor, et cetera, but you know I do like gold a lot, right? You have only to look at my 76 research to know how much I like gold.
Starting point is 00:40:31 But what I liked about his platform is that it's very transparent. So it's an 8% upfront fee, zero percent to liquidate. I was like, really? Zero percent? He was like, yeah, zero percent to liquidate because he said, look, we believe that the wealth belongs to your family. So there's a charge going in, but if you liquidate it, he said it's zero percent. So that's actually great. You can head to K-E, Kirk Elliott, precious metals, kEPM.com forward slash Trish. Please try to use that because I told him I was really going to talk to you guys about it and they'll give you a free consultation there. and I do think you'll get extra, extra, extra good attention because we've spent a lot of time talking.
Starting point is 00:41:14 I've spent a lot of time getting to know him and his business. He's going to be a regular on this show. He's actually sponsoring an entire marketmaker segment. So we'll hear from market makers once a week. So go check that out. KEPM.com forward slash Trish. It's just a really neat company. And I'm going to go back to see if Don is listening and paying attention,
Starting point is 00:41:34 if he messaged back about gold and silver, because it said something about gold and silver today, which have gotten, you know, a little bit beaten up in today's session. I did notice that, but that's when you actually probably do want to go in, especially for long-term holders. One person that I really, really respect, said to me recently, never sell your gold. Maybe that's what Kirk's betting on, right? He's got zero percent on your way out, because the thinking is you never really want to actually exit that gold. You really want to make sure that you keep that for always. I mean, I just, I think it's kind of an important asset diversification.
Starting point is 00:42:12 I use it myself. Donald Trump giving the green light to one Janine Piro. Go get him, Gene. Go get him, go get him, go get them. And she's going after one. Jerome Powell. Oof, she is like a dog with a bone. You won't believe what he said today.
Starting point is 00:42:26 I was really surprised at this, because this is actually threatening the entire appointment of Kevin Warsh at the Fed. but he's like, you go, you go, Judge Janine. I am in a legal lane. All of the rest is white noise. I don't care what they say. I have a job. I have the ability to go into a grand jury.
Starting point is 00:42:51 There are questions that the American public and people in D.C. are entitled to know where a billion dollars has gone. And that's my focus. right? So she kind of got in this dust up with a reporter. And this reporter said to her, well, what about Kevin Worson? She's like, who the heck do you think I am? I don't care about any of this. I don't care about politics. I don't care about appointments. You can have any senator out there threatened this, that, and the other. It's not going to phase me. And so the president, I'm going to get to him in a second. He came out today in the meeting with the Japanese prime minister, and he said,
Starting point is 00:43:26 yeah, you know what? She should pursue that because it doesn't make any sense that we lost a billion dollars. And so here she is with the reporter. She's like, do you not understand English? Did you not hear me? Let me repeat myself. Here she is. But he is asking for an assurance that the investigation in DePaul has, this has ended it. Are you willing to concede? Did you hear what I just said? I just said that this decision will be appealed by the United States Department of Justice. That's the answer to your question. We're looking at 1,0001, and we're also looking at a statute having to do with fraud, but it's up to the grand jury to make that decision.
Starting point is 00:44:10 We're a billion dollars in cost overruns. Are you kidding? A billion dollars? We're not talking about huge buildings here. Go ahead. How many more is Trump's pick, though, President Trump? I don't even know who he is. So isn't this just essentially holding up President Trump's pick or any,
Starting point is 00:44:30 upcoming picks since Senator Coutel has said he will not vote. Okay. I don't know how to explain this, but I'm going to try. I've been a prosecutor, a judge, a DA, and now a United States attorney for well over three decades. Politics is not the lane I'm in right now. And I have a charge and an oath to the Constitution. And my job is to present evidence, and I can do. And I can do so when I can merely on the suspicion that the law is being violated or even just because I want assurance that it's not. Okay. So Gene Pira, I mean, she is a pistol, okay?
Starting point is 00:45:16 A total pistol. I'm kind of thinking if it doesn't work out with Pam, we got a darn good replacement, guys, darn good replacement because she's, I think, phenomenal at this job. I think she's better at this job. And she was great on TV and great on the five. everything. But I think she's really, I mean, this is her lane, right? Like she's been a lawyer her entire life. And she's like, I have a case. I have a case. I don't understand where a billion dollars went. And so Donald Trump was asked in the press conference today with the Japanese
Starting point is 00:45:46 prime minister, which we'll get to. He had some funny, funny, interesting things to say in front of the Japanese prime minister, which we will talk about. But let me first just show you what he said about Powell. And he's like, look, Judge Janine, well, Janine, She's no longer a judge. She's now an attorney at the DOJ. She has a case and she is bringing it. He's not slowing her down. Well, he's under investigation because he's building a building for hundreds of billions of dollars more than it's supposed to cost. The building you see over there is under budget and ahead of schedule. That's the ballroom. The ballroom is a much bigger building. It's a much more complex building than what he's doing and it's at a fraction of the cost.
Starting point is 00:46:30 something is going on, whether it's contractors, that's what I do. Best in the world, I build. I build great buildings. I've always done it, and I build them under budget and ahead of schedule. They could have $4 billion. This is a renovation job for $4 billion. And if you look at the building, it's not even, I don't know if Kevin Warsh is ever going to be able to move into it. It's been under construction for years.
Starting point is 00:46:56 It's the most expensive building ever built. Now, I know it's gross incompetent, because I happen to think he's grossly incompetent. Today, certainly, you should be lowering interest rates, all right? Certainly, who would not lower him? But he's stubborn, and he's got Trump derangement syndrome. But a lot of people have that, you know?
Starting point is 00:47:15 It's not a curable disease. But he's also building, he should be lowering rates immediately, but he won't do that because he's a stubborn, incompetent person, and that's a bad thing. You know, when you're stubborn and incompetent, I think it's the worst combination. And he's also not a smart person. But he's building a complex over there that's under his jurisdiction. He started it, and it's out of control.
Starting point is 00:47:44 It's billions of dollars for a little building. I could have done that building and made it beautiful for $25 million. $25 million, and it would have been beautiful. Look what I've done at the White House fixing it up. I mean, the place was in bad shape. You see the floors and everything. It was in bad shape. I could have made that building beautiful for $25 million.
Starting point is 00:48:09 They're spending $4 billion? He's man. All right. So it's, there is criminality. Maybe it's with the contractor. Interesting. Because I know more about contractors than any human being maybe that's ever lived. But that contractor is a friend.
Starting point is 00:48:28 very rich man. Whoever the contractor is, and we know, but whoever the contractor is, is an extremely rich man. He's going to make, I mean, he could make millions of dollars. I don't, I'm hearing numbers from three to four billion dollars. That would make it the most expensive building on a square foot basis ever built in history. And you're not even building a building. It's a renovation. The exterior skin is staying, the steel is staying, the structure. So all I want to do is bring out to the public that this guy is an incompetent. He's a very incompetent guy. And he may be a dishonest guy, but somebody's dishonest because there's no way that...
Starting point is 00:49:11 Wow. I mean, that was a takedown if I ever heard one. I think he's like personally insulted over this because, as he said, he could have built the building for $25 million and it would have been great. So why are they spending a billion dollars? like that's serious leakage and he's really, really angry about it, like personally offended. It's like it's his money, right? But I like that, right? I think that we all appreciate that and like that.
Starting point is 00:49:39 We don't want like crazy amounts of money being spent on crazy things. And so he's like, that's not right. It's just not right. And by the way, he should lower rates. He got that one in there too. Listen, he also tweeted something out or put it on true social last night that I thought was super cool. and I just want to show it to you. This is like an AI video of the White House.
Starting point is 00:50:02 Watch it. There's a little bit of music there. And this is through the years. So if you're listening, hopefully you can hear me. I'll turn the music down a little bit. But this is basically an AI version of the White House through the years, starting in the 1800s going, we're now looking at 1929.
Starting point is 00:50:23 Apparently there was a fire. They cleaned with a fire. Fast forward to the 1934. And there was more construction that went on. I think he's trying to make the point that like, Renovations happen, they've always happened, and people should just calm down about the ballroom because this isn't really that big a deal.
Starting point is 00:50:37 And he's showing what's going on right now with the current renovations in 2026 and oh my goodness, is that a stadium they're putting underneath there? Anyway, 2029, he's going forward into the future and it's going to be magnificent. Take a look at that and it's just kind of a cool video that I wanted to show you. And I think part of his point is like, look,
Starting point is 00:50:57 this is what happens, right? We do these things. It started in 1808, and things happen, right? There's been fires. There have been problems. We've had to rebuild. And the place is kind of a dump. Actually, it is kind of a dump.
Starting point is 00:51:14 So when I visited, he actually, he's like, can you believe this? He's like, there's like a little room off of the main Oval Office, which is kind of like a set. People don't realize that. He doesn't actually, like, do all his work there. He has meetings and stuff in there. But the place that he actually does all his work, It's just this little, it looks like a dining room. There's a dining room table with these rickety old chairs and a bunch of TVs on the wall
Starting point is 00:51:37 and his laptop computer. And it's like the floors, he's right. Like at one point he was talking about the floors. The floors were a mess. Everything about it was a mess at the White House. And it actually really did surprise me because it was like one of these old rickety places like nobody had kept up. And I think he was personally offended at that too.
Starting point is 00:51:56 But you'd get it, right? Like if you're a builder, if you create hotels, you're like, this is the White House? Come on. All right. So, big things ahead. For Jerome Powell, perhaps. Maybe for the contractor that Jerome Powell worked with. Because Jerome, you know, he's kind of an egghead. He focuses on interest rates. Maybe he's not that good at it, but something odd in the president's view went down for that thing that cost so much money. Donald Trump met with the Prime Minister of Japan, our great ally Japan today, and he kind of gave it to NATO. Well, and he kind of gave it to Japan, too.
Starting point is 00:52:37 Inadvertently, I don't think he meant to say what he said, but he kind of went to the place of no return, shall we say. We'll get to that. But first, he's like, what's going on with NATO? I mean, nobody wants to help us at NATO? What am I doing, having all these relationships at NATO? I mean, at least Japan is offering to work with us. On Iran strikes, take a listen.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Why didn't you tell U.S. allies in Europe and Asia like Japan about the war before attacking Iran? So we are very confused about Japanese citizens. Well, one thing you don't want to signal too much, you know, when we go in, we went in very hard, and we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Oopssy, daisy, oopsie, oopsie, I actually played you that before I played you the other. But, well, we might as well, we might as well finish that one out, right? We might as well hear the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Who knows better about surprising? Why didn't you tell U.S. allies in Europe and Asia like Japan about the war before attacking Iran? Okay, so he's like, why did you not say anything to your allies about, what you're intending to do in Iran. I mean, we know why he didn't do it, right? It's the same reason he didn't go to Congress because you don't want to tell the entire world and telegraph it because the entire world
Starting point is 00:54:06 doesn't really have, you know, the ability to keep things quiet just like Rashida Tili, wouldn't it kept things quiet or Ilhan Omar or anyone else. So anyway, he answers it and he says... Something you don't want to signal too much, you know? When we go in, we went in very hard and we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise.
Starting point is 00:54:24 Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Okay, why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor? Oh my goodness. Look at her face. She's like, so that was just one of his sort of, you know, when you say, okay, my uncle at Thanksgiving moments. He just kind of lets it all out, right? And it was kind of awkward. Everybody's like, oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:54:51 And she's just sitting there like, I can't believe he just said that. I cannot believe he just said. that, oh, you better believe he did. And he also was hitting hard at NATO. Like, what do you do in NATO? Well, I don't need you. Why? I mean, for goodness sakes, you don't ever offer to help. You've made it very clear that you're not on our side. I mean, we heard a little bit something different from the head of NATO yesterday. I played you that sound. It's like they're kind of groveling. They're trying to put something together. But for the most part, all these individual leaders are very proud of saying we want nothing to do with this. This is Trump's war.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Not even America's war, it's Trump's war. So here he is. You're doing a great job again. Congratulations on the biggest win in the history of Japan. That's not bad. That's a pretty long history. That's a large nation with a lot, really with a great reputation, but it's a tremendous victory.
Starting point is 00:55:46 Congratulations to everybody. I'm very proud of you. Very proud of you. We become friends, and I'm very proud of the, got you've done. It's not easy. Any questions, please? Mr. President, are you fully satisfied with the level of support that you're getting from
Starting point is 00:56:04 Japan on Iran, including around the minesweepers? Well, we're going to be speaking about it today. Go ahead, you can go. We're doing, we're going to be doing, we're going to be speaking about it today. We've had tremendous support and relationship with Japan and everything. And I believe that based on statements that were given to us yesterday, the day before yesterday,
Starting point is 00:56:36 having to do with Japan, they are really stepping up to the plate. Yes. Mr. President, to you make a lot of support. Unlike NATO. Oh, you had to wait for that one, right? You had to wait for it. Unlike NATO, he really, he's just kind of had it up to here with NATO. He's like, look, you know, they need all this help in Ukraine. We're there.
Starting point is 00:57:06 We help them in Ukraine. You think that they might want to actually offer some reciprocity, but no can do. So at what point does push come to shove and we say, hey, you know, okay, this is this little arrangement is not really working out for us. Because when we need you, you're not there. When you need us, it's expected that we're just going to show. shell out billions and billions and billions of dollars. So that's not really like a two-way relationship, is it? NATO. Mark Mullen confirmed as head of DHS. And you know, there was a
Starting point is 00:57:39 clip from those hearings that you're not going to see anywhere because the mainstream media doesn't actually want to show you this. But I do because this blew me away. Mark Wayne, we've got to get his whole name on this lower third right here, right? Mark Wayne Mullen confirmed. This just, I actually was reduced to tears as I was listening to this earlier today. And I was like, I got to show you guys this because this is not really anywhere to be seen. And it is such a special moment. And it shows you what the president is capable of, and the humanity that he has. And I've heard so many stories like this.
Starting point is 00:58:15 I have a similar one myself. I mean, when I was toast at Fox, who was the first call? The president. At my home. the next morning. I mean, just, you know, really, really thoughtful. And so here he is with Mark Wayne Mullen, or rather Mark Wayne Mullen, is talking to the congressional body there. And he's being asked, you know, do you have a story about Trump you want to share? And it takes him a minute, because you can tell how emotional this is. It takes him a minute to get it out. But you've got to see this.
Starting point is 00:58:46 It's well worth it. And like I said, you're not going to see this anywhere else. Yeah, he's going to take a glass of water and his eyes are tearing up. It's not about President Trump, it's about my son. So my son was a really world-class athlete in January 17th of 2020, which, mind you, was an election year. He had a really serious brain injury. Woke up 26 hours later, he's a different kid. We almost lost him.
Starting point is 00:59:18 For 26 hours, he had an extremely low pulse. There was a time they thought that they lost his pulse altogether. And when he woke up, he was just different. I mean, here he had a world-class athlete that wrestled all over the world since he was 12 years old, and he couldn't touch his nose. He couldn't walk without shelf on his feet. He had short-term memory loss. He couldn't control his muscles. Couldn't add five plus three.
Starting point is 00:59:44 He was in high school at that time. Had to learn how to read, walk, everything. The president found out about it, and he gave me a call immediately. And one thing that the president joked about was, he said, let me get this straight. He doesn't know who you and Christy are, but he knew I was because the only question you got right is who the president was. And he said, Trump with his cocky grin on his face. But the president didn't understand the severity of it, but he heard it in my voice and immediately he went to work. I told him we had to get to Bakersville, California, to the center for neural skills, which is one of the best neural rehabilitation places in the world.
Starting point is 01:00:18 And the president offered us in his plane, his personal plane. This president of the United States. And I said, sir, we can't fly. We've got to drive. we get there and he called almost every day for two weeks checking on Jim and then he says i'm going to come see and now this is the middle of the election this is beggarsville california really not an area he's got to go campaign he took the time to come up there and and see and see Jim and the the center told us that the the short-term memory loss would something would trigger it some big event would eventually trigger
Starting point is 01:00:48 where he would start retaining stuff until then he was still having issues and uh the president And of course, there was cameras and everybody around. And, of course, no other media ever talked about it, which was funny, because the president called him on stage and talked to him. And then we went to the back, and the president didn't talk to me. He didn't know I was in. I mean, he didn't care if I was in the room. Here's a guy that's been over in his ties about as long as my son,
Starting point is 01:01:11 because my son's at stunned his growth. And so he's five foot three the rest of his life. And his team came to him twice and said, sir, we got to go. We got to go. On the third time they came over to him, he looked at him. He says, hey, I guarantee you that plane won't leave without. me. And for the next 15 minutes, he did nothing but love on my son. Oh, he's going to cry. He's about to cry. That one incident jogged his memory. And from then on, he started retaining
Starting point is 01:01:45 things. And Jim's attitude went from this, you know, we're going to get through it to this. I'm going to get through it. And every week, if not most days, the president would call and ask how he could help. Ask how's his buddy doing. How's Jim doing? He didn't do it for publicity. He didn't do it for any show. He was running in one of the toughest elections he had been in, and the guy was still that concerned about my son. When we got released for a little bit, we had to go back. When we got released a little bit, the president said, come to Mar-Lago and see me. We go down there, and it's amazing. And when we're leaving, dang it. I hate getting emotional. See, if I talk about my kids, I get emotional.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Other than that, you can't make me cry. But my kids didn't make me much. That's actually a good thing. So anyways, he grabbed my son and he said, do you know why I love your dad? Do you know why I love your dad? Chrissy tells the story better than I do. And he goes, no, sir.
Starting point is 01:02:45 He goes, because he loves you, because of you, because of you. Man, he didn't do it for any other reason. I mean, here's the President of the United States, and he did it just because he cared. And so when he want to say why he's a friend, Yeah, we were acquaintances before that. We've been friends ever since. The American people need to hear that.
