bar records. And we're live, a lot going on today. Welcome to the Trish Rican show. I am Trish. It's wonderful to have you here. Cash Patel, he's not messing around. He just went in and secretly, secretly, everyone took all of those records in that one particular county in Arizona.

The FBI has decided that the history of Maricopa County is problematic. So, fireworks ahead. Plus, you know, Iran. is now saying it wants an end to this war. Of course it does, for goodness sakes. Of course it does. And so it's coming forward with some ideas, some reparations, some guarantees. I don't think the president's going to be there or down with any of it. However, he is saying a few things right now. He's telling the ships to go ahead and go through that straight of Hormuz. I'll tell you, if they get fired on, well, no, Iran's not serious, right?

Is it a president how has they laid any minds in the straight of Hormuz? We don't think so. Trump declaring victory? I don't know. Like, how do you interpret this? He's out in a rally today, just moments ago, in Kentucky saying this. We did an excursion. You know what an excursion is? We had to take a little trip to get rid of some evil, very evil people. It should have been done for 47 years they've been killing our people. 47 years. And good news. The president's soaring with very important, very key group. We're going to talk about that as well as the inflation report out today. I'll tell you, inflation's really tame. Just don't tell the media, right?

The media has a whole different idea on what inflation might be. But then again, the media says things like this as well. I would say we've had two terrorist attacks here in the last 10 days. And can we condemn those? Why are we? Of course. What does that have to do with Muslims? We're talking about serious bias. Welcome to the Trish Riegan show where, okay, in fairness, I have my bias. You know that, but I'm up front about it. I tell you, you know exactly where I stand. And I always try to at least show you the other side, even if we just have to explain why they're so darn wrong. Good to have you here. Big, big show. I want to remind you about my other company 76 research, because we've had enormous success over there, as well as right here at the Trish Riegan show.

just look at those portfolios, okay? That's what I'm talking about. Very, very good performance, indeed. If we can help you out by introducing you to those portfolios, we don't manage your money. We only give you our stock market recommendations, myself and my colleague who spent multiple decades on Wall Street, then we'd be thrilled and honored to do so. 76 Research.com. All right, Cash Patel's FBI secretly seizing all of those records in Maricopa County. I mean, this is just unbelievable. He got the warrant and then he went in. They've got all this stuff right now. And I'll tell you this is really important. It's the 2024 records, which is interesting, right? Because we'd already heard some stuff about the 2020 election, but they went in and got the 2024 records because

the concern is, is that if this isn't locked down, if this isn't safe, then heck, you know, what, what's going on? Let me go here to some sound we have from John Solomon, who did some of the initial reporting at just the news. The FBI has decided that the history of Maricopa County is problematic. Yeah. Well, the president actually just sent this out on true social. His story, John's story, there at Justin News, saying, yes, great, great with three exclamation points, right? There you go, right after that.

And, you know, just to back up for a second and sort of expose what's at stake, you have 60 non-citizens that voted. It is believed. to 137 non-citizens that had registered. So this is obviously enormously concerning, and you can't have a system where you get people that aren't actually citizens. I mean, I hate to state the obvious here, registering to vote, and let alone voting. So if you have so much as one or two or five or ten, it's a problem. 137 starts to become an even bigger problem.

You start asking yourself, how many more are there out there? Let's go to a report on CNN. The new Maricopa County recorder conducted a review of more than 60,000 registered voters in Arizona and say they found 137 registered voters who are not U.S. citizens. Of those 60 individuals have voted in prior elections, what can you tell us? Well, we can tell you, you shouldn't be voting. I mean, if you're not a citizen, for goodness sake, why are you registered to vote? You know, they didn't audit back in 2021 of this county, and this is kind of startling. I want to go to this footage.

2021, this is the Senate, the state Senate audit of those voter records, and things just didn't add up. Take a peek. For example, we have 74,243 mailing ballots where there is no clear record of them being sent. There should be more EV-32s, more sent out than the R that are that are received. Specifically with these, we also can tie them to a specific individual that was mailed to. And so we have 74,000 where we have them came back from individuals where we don't have a clear indication that they were ever sent out to them. Okay, so you get what he's saying there. In other words, they had all these absentee requests.

Normally they do. And then so you send the absentee requests out and then you get the absentee request back. But in this case, the numbers didn't match, right? So they hadn't sent all those absentee ballots out. And yet somehow they got all those absentee ballots. ballots back. So that leaves you asking some questions. A lot of questions. And, you know, I look at the media right now and I'm asking, why aren't they asking some questions? They're trying to bury this story like it doesn't even matter. And here's the reality. Okay, this is not going to change anything

for 2020. It's not going to change anything for 2024. All that's decided already. But what it could do is ensure that we're not going to be faced with even just the glimmer of any kind of problem. I mean, think about how Americans are so sick of our institutions. They don't have any faith in our institutions. I saw a poll today on the Supreme Court. They don't have faith in the Supreme Court. They don't have faith in our banks. They don't have faith in journalists.

Well, I get that. They don't have faith in anything anymore at all. And so how are they going to have faith in the whole beauty of this great republic and our entire voting system? If you have people that are here that are non-citizens, registering to vote or worse voting. Let's go to my former colleague Jesse Waters on Fox News, who had some interesting points to make on it.

Arizona, Joe Biden beat Donald Trump by 11,000 votes. An audit in Maricopa County, done by an outside firm, found 57,000 questionable ballots, just in that one county. The media wasn't interested in this. And the audit wasn't as thorough as it could have been because Arizona officials wouldn't fully cooperate, and some evidence was removed and destroyed.

So there's a dangerous pattern in the United States. Politicians, prosecutors, and the press are abusing their power to wage political warfare against innocent people. And even when the abuse is exposed... You know, I want to take that a step further in terms of the abuse of the people. The fact that you don't have journalists out there looking at this.

I mean, you had a local paper. That's good. They were the first to discover it. You have some people in the media, myself included, Jesse, obviously at Fox, but the majority of the media is just walking right on past this thing. Like, it doesn't matter. Or if they do decide to cover it like the New York Times did today, then they cover it from the perspective of, can you believe this guy?

How dare he? How dare he? How dare he? But of course, you know, you think about Russia, Russia, Russia, and they went on and on to us about how Donald Trump stole the election. I mean, you'd think he was right there breaking into the Debald voting machines, the way they carried on. He stole the election with the help of Vladimir Putin.

Well, you know, if they were so concerned about that, why don't they want to get to the bottom of it? Why shouldn't everybody want to get to the bottom of this? I mean, how does this have to actually be a partisan thing? I would ask you, I don't see it as a partisan issue in any way, shape, or form only because it is the sanctity of our entire system. We need a system that we can all trust that's transparent that we know is secure. For goodness sakes over in Somalia. Yeah. You know, Somalia, Ilhan Omar's homeland in Somalia.

They just insisted you have to have an ID when you go to vote. All right? So if Somalia can do it, why not us? I mean, listen, every other country, everywhere. I mean, this is nutty. They're all on Jim Crow, Jim Crow stuff. You know, we don't want to have any ID because that's somehow racist. Give me a break.

There is nothing racist about it. And by the way, just look at all the polls. The majority of Americans want this, guys. The majority of black Americans want this, guys. So why don't you? It makes us really wonder about it. Yeah, it makes us really wonder if there's something, some reason why you want to keep up the charade. Is this your, you know, idea of how you secure things for yourself?

Back to John Solomon right now, John Solomon, at Just the News with some really, really good reporting on this. Take a peek. The FBI has decided that the history of Maricopa County is problematic and that under federal law, a county, or a state must administer the election the way their state laws do, If they don't, it is a federal legal violation. This is why they raided Fulton County, another place with a long history of irregularities and misconduct and, quite frankly, just incompetent election counting. And so the focus in this grand jury subpoena that went in the last few days to Maricopa County seized many gigabytes of election data is the 2024 election, which is interesting because

President Trump won there. But there is a discovery that was made by congressional observers. Every year the House administration committee sends observers, one Democrat, one Republican, to various voting centers. One of the teams, the Republican Democrat team that went to Maricopa County observed something very disturbing. They took pictures. They wrote a long report. Congressman Abe Hamaday hinted at this in an oversight letter recently, the information in that report was so troubling to the FBI.

and when coupled to the things that the Arizona Senate found in 2020 that were raised as concerns and the things that Homiday and Kerry Lake raised in 2022, they were able to get a grand jury subpoena from a federal grand jury and execute the transmission of a large amount of voter data. They're going to go through that data looking for some of the telltale signs that were in this congressional report. Wow. All right. So we're going to get some answers soon. And what's wrong with answers, guys. Like, what's wrong with it? Oh, the Democrats don't want it because maybe they're going to look bad. I mean, it comes on the heels of Georgia. You've got Fulton County, Georgia, where they were freaking out because what happened? Oh, a few weeks ago, the FBI went in and

rated the place, and they walked out with 700 boxes, 700 boxes of voter ballots. And as it happened, I got a kick out of this Moe Ivory. She's the commissioner there in Fulton County, Georgia, and she's flipping out, freaking out. And in real time, you see her just say, I can't believe this is happening. This is what's going down. Watch. Hey, everybody. So here's an update. We're at the elections hub right here off Fairwin Road. And they did correct the warrant and they are now in there getting the documents. 700 boxes of 2020 ballots and accompanying things that go with it. You know, absentee ballots, all the things, right? So our clerk of superior court, Alexander is in there making a log of everything that they're taking. But this is like all wrong.

So we're trying to figure out a legal plan and we should have one, whether that's an injunction, whether a motion to quash. I mean, whatever it is, we're trying to figure it out right now because this is an attack on our elections. Okay, that was January 29th. She's still working on that legal plan because guess what? She doesn't have one. This is completely lawful for them to do. They got the warrant. They're going in there and they're basically making this a criminal case looking for people who may have committed criminal wrongdoing.

So here she is all breathless. You can hear the hysteria in her voice. She walks off and then... meant to keep you from trying to go to the polls in November, being too afraid to change what's going on in our nation. So instead of worrying about people dying in Minnesota, here we are at the Fulton County Elections Hub. So let me go find out what the legal plan is.

Okay, I spoke too soon. Hi, everybody. Listen, I know you're watching the news. You're saying a lot of stuff about this FBI raid at the Fulton County Elections and Registrations. I'm on the inside right now. So I just want you to be like real dissoning. about all that you're hearing from people who are on the outside of what's going on.

I'm going to give you the truth about what's happening. So they served a warrant, the FBI, this is Trump, serving a warrant to go pick up the 2020 ballots, which are in a secure location inside of here, 700 boxes. The first warrant that they gave was incorrect legally, like they didn't follow the right procedure. They went back and they fixed it and they came back and now they aren't actually collecting the boxes. They are in the command, the chain of command in Fulton County is that once they are archived, they become the possession of the clerk of super. Court, which is Shea Alexander. She is here and she is with them inventorying everything that they're taking.

We, the commissioners, the chairman, the county attorney are trying to figure out a legal plan as to maybe an injunction. You keep working on that, though. You keep working. We're trying to figure it out. We're getting all kinds of legal. Like I said, you keep working. But, you know, if you actually cared about the integrity of our elections, wouldn't you just be welcoming of every single little last bit of information you could get? How do we have a system if the system is corrupt? And even if it's not, okay, let's give them the benefit of the doubt here. We're going to ignore the 137 registered non-citizens, okay, out in Arizona. Let's give them the benefit of the doubt. Let's assume everything is squeaky clean. Wouldn't you feel better knowing that? Wouldn't you feel better knowing that your

vote is secure? By the way, we haven't even gotten into the same. America Act, which just is obvious at this point. And the idea that they somehow don't want that to happen, what does that tell you? I want to know. I mean, really, what does it tell you? Because it tells me, and I hate to say this, but it tells me, you know, I don't know. I mean, do you need to cheat? Is that why? Is that the reason why you don't want people to have an ID? That's really messed up, because you ought to be able to have an audit trail. And this is what the president is asking for, And I'll tell you, Americans are behind him. Just check out the new polls.

Meanwhile, there he is. Getting a very warm welcome in the state of Kentucky. I mean, he was everywhere today. We saw him. Thank you very much. Thank you. We saw him. Hello, Kentucky.

I love Kentucky. We saw him in Kentucky. We saw him in Ohio touring a pharmaceutical plant. We saw him in Washington, D.C. And guess what he talked to everybody? Everywhere he went. New poll out today, Trump's approval rating hits a near three-month high with independence. Not exactly the group that you would think would be so welcoming of him, especially on the heels of what's going on with Iran, but here you go. Surprise, surprise. A new

economist UGov poll showing that he's pulling ahead with independence. According to the poll, Trump's overall approval rating is 40%. His disapproval rating is 55%. It's found to happen when oil prices go up. But that may not be for long. We'll explain in a second. Anyway, his disapproval rating is 55% among independents. The president has an approval rating of 31%. So that's the highest he's seen in about 12 weeks. So amazing, considering all that's going on again with Iran.

Specifically, when it comes to Iran, the majority of Americans say that Trump should have sought congressional authorization before striking Iran. This tells me, you know what this tells me? The media has done their job on behalf of the Democrat, party because what person in their right mind actually thinks, gee, it would be a good idea to go out and tell Ilhan Omar and Rashida Talib that I'm going to strike Iran and try and take out the Ayatollah tonight. Like, seriously. So, you know, apparently 56% of Americans think that

he should have consulted Rashida Talib and Ilhan Omar. And he should have gotten congressional approval from these 500-somehani-jahus who, you know, can't wait to talk to anyone, would be tweeting the thing out all over the place. And you know what? Would ultimately be putting our troops at risk? So I'm sorry. Like, I'm in the minority there, I guess, because I'm in the absolutely not. I'm never going to tell Congress before I strike.

I retain, as President of the United States, the ability to assess whether there is an imminent threat. And if there's an imminent threat, and I can go and take that strike first, I'm going to do that all day long, and you better believe I'm not going to go asking for permission from these little hoodlums, right? Like, you think I'm going to ask them? No. I'm going to go ask, you know, the bartender, AOC, gee, what do you think? Should we take out the Ayatollah tonight?

I mean, this is idiotic, but it tells you that the media has communicated this narrative to the point where people are brainwashed. It's why I'm so glad you're here. Please make sure you subscribe, share, like, all that good stuff. It's important that you do because we have a different kind of dialogue. here, don't we? Here's another one. Again, UGov economist poll. 52% of Americans disapprove of Donald Trump's handling of Iran, 39% approve. I'd say that's interesting. We've seen a lot of half and half right down the, you know, right down the middle of the fairway for a lot of these

polls. This is one that suggests Americans are not happy with it, but I'll tell you this, guys, I think they're going to be happy in short time. I think they're going to be happy because the president does not want this to be a long, drawn out, or deal. And he said that from the beginning. And yet the media doesn't trust him on that. The Democrats don't trust him on that. And, you know, it's to be expected, right? But I'll tell you, knowing him as I do, I do trust him on that because I know he doesn't want to be committing a ton of resources, a ton of effort, and the risk of lost lives for nothing. So the idea is you go in, you win. Hopefully you win big. And then you find your exit plan. And that may be happening in real time as

we speak. Again, I want to point out the success he's seeing with independence. Another person seeing some success right now, Marco Rubio, Kaliman. Climman in the betting markets, what do you know? But it makes sense because he's been out in front of this situation with Iran all along. And it kind of is, well, it makes sense to me, but it's a little bit perplexing in that you see overall the sentiment for the country is much more divided. But, you know, if you look at how Americans at a Republican feel right now. And if you look at MAGA, they are all in on this and they support the president, 98%. Overwhelmingly, the Republican Party supports him right now. And so in that sense, it makes sense that this guy is no longer going to be Little Marco.

Bye-bye, little Marco. I think there's something else in store for him. But I want everyone to know your military is getting the job done. And every single day, this regime in Iran has less missiles, has less launchers, their factories work less, and their Navy is being eviscerated. And the world is going to be a safer and a better place when this mission is accomplished. There you go. That was Little Marco, not so little anymore, speaking on Saturday. Here is the latest out of Polly Market. You can see the Republican presidential nominee pick is still J.D. Vance. But boy, oh, boy, is he's slipping. Okay, he's slipping. Who do you see coming up in the ranks? None of the other.

than Marco Rubio, he is the bright blue, the periwinkle blue, would be J.D. Vance. So that's rather significant and worth keeping an eye on right now because J.D. might be more in line with sort of, oh, I don't know, the Tucker Carlson School of Thought on this, and Marco Rubio is more in line with more, I hate to call myself traditional. I wouldn't necessarily say I'm a traditional conservative in any way, shape, or form, but maybe sort of, you know, the not crazy people on this, all right? So that perhaps is why he's seeing this success. Lots going on, as I said, make sure you subscribe, share, like, make a comment, tell me what you think. Is it Marco? Is it J.D.? Maybe Pete Hegseth. Hey, was Pete Hegseth in there? We'll go back and check. No, he's not in there.

So, you know, there could be more names before it's all said and done. I will say this. We got some good news on the economy. Inflation is tame. Inflation is big. basically a nothing burger. Inflation is, so far anyway, exactly what you want to see. 2.4%. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. Right? I mean, we held steady. And the idea is, because we have low inflation, then the Fed's going to have some room to be able to cut rates. And the president knows this. The president's excited by this. And he's making the point out in Kentucky now that, you know, we've done some really good things for the economy. We saw, as well, Caroline Levitt, recently speaking on that. I'm going to get to that in a second,

But first, here we go to the President. Perhaps most importantly to the workers here today, I'm pleased to report that the great big, beautiful bill also delivers no tax on overtime. Whoever thought that was going to happen. That means every extra hour you work, your overtime pay is now 100% tax-free. You have no tax.

Remember that when you go and vote. The Democrats want to end it. So you take, home 20 or 30% more to those beautiful children or whoever the hell you bring it at home to. I don't know who you bring it home to. I don't want to know. That's not my business, although it could be interesting. After so many years of politicians who sold out the working men and women of our country,

we finally have a president who puts American workers. Nice, nice, nice. So again, the president getting a very warm reception there in Kentucky, making the point that he puts American workers first. You know, this is not a story that you're going to hear in the mainstream media at all. I want to go back to a great broadcaster and a wonderful woman who I've worked many, many years with Maria Bardo Romo. We were at CNBC together and then at Fox Business together. And I really say, you know, in this business, you can count on one hand the good guys from the bad guys. She's one of the good ones.

I want to go to her speaking with Caroline Levitt over the weekend about the good stuff that the president is doing. The president inherited the worst affordability crisis in our nation's. history from Joe Biden and look at the progress he has made in the course of the past year. Enormous progress. Enormous progress. Like I said, don't tell the media. But I think about wages going up. I think about inflation coming down.

Inflation now staying steady at 2.4%. This is what I'm talking about. Okay, we need that. We need that sensibility. Where do you think we would have been? Can you imagine if you had Kamala in there? I can't even like, that's like the stuff of nightmares, right? Like we don't even want to like even go there.

We don't want to think about that. it would have been a really, really bad set of facts. And yet I'm sure the media would have spun everything however they could for her, just like they were doing with Joey Boy. With Joey Boy, it was like inflation would, you know, come down from, say, I don't know, 9.6% to 8.7% and they're like, woohoo! And it's like, guys, it's still 8.7%. And it was up 9.6%.

So now we're up 8.7%. You know, that's not a woohoo moment. And here we are at 2.4%, which is, right in range with what the Federal Reserve loves to see, and yet you get the headline like the one over my left shoulder from the AP this morning. I couldn't believe this. I'm like, come on. I mean, I know you hate them, but for goodness sakes, this is just numbers. This is economics. Get your act together, for goodness sakes. Inflation was elevated. They write last month, even before the Iran War sent energy costs soaring. You see, it couldn't say. They

just couldn't say it, that inflation is tame. I mean, you can go on about, you know, what's going to come. You know, we're all debating that. Right. Now, it depends on how long this whole thing goes on. You know, the oil prices are up and gas prices as a result are up about 20% right now. People can handle that. The question is what happens down the road? All right, that's a fair. That's a fair conversation to have.

But for you to print this on a day when we get a stellar inflation report, come on, AP, we get it. We know what you're up to and we're a little bit, just a little bit sick of it. Oh, did I forget the New York Times? Let me not forget the New York Times. they couldn't do a nice, you know, inflation is tame report. No, they had to say U.S. inflation has steadied. Oh, I guess that's charitable of them before war with Iran.

They don't have the latest numbers. We'll see where it goes. I actually don't think it's going to be out of sight. What was out of sight was Joe Biden's economy. And believe me, it would have continued on. For goodness sakes, can you imagine if we had Kamala? Donald Trump wants you to remember that. The first group of opponents, it's the first group of the Democrats,

They're always saying, we're going to raise your taxes. Historically, a politician has to. Ideally, you're going to follow through. But you have to say we're cutting taxes. They say, we're going to raise that. They were going to give you if they won Kamala and Joe, sleepy Joe. But they were going to raise your taxes more than any. It was the biggest tax increase in the history of our country.

And I kept saying, are they really saying this? I don't know. What do I know about politics? I haven't been doing it that long. But they were going to give you the biggest tax cut. And now, again, the midterms are coming. They want to raise your taxes higher than you've ever had before. We have to win.

The midterms are going to be very, very important to keep it going. No, he's right. I mean, that's just a given, right? It's super, super important. And I think he makes a pretty valid and funny point. Like, most politicians you'd think they're going to come forward and say, hey, we're going to cut your taxes. We're going to give you more money.

But nope, nope, nope, nope. Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, they want you to know they're going to raise your taxes. Yeah. They're, you know, they are a special breed onto themselves. Now, aren't they? Again, a reminder, we're seeing a lot of volatility in the markets right now. But I'd say the markets are hanging on just fine, just fine. And this has been the point that we've been making.

If you get our newsletter at 76 Research, go to 76research.com. You can get the 76 report for a dollar a month. code word dollar DOLLAR, my gift to you. Hey, we got some good news on the oil front. I'll tell you, it didn't show up necessarily in prices today, but this is a big deal. You got the largest, largest, largest global release of oil that we've ever had in history. The IEA, that's the International Energy Association, announcing that they're going to get 32 countries together.

They've all signed off on this. They've all agreed, and they're going to release 400 million barrels of oil. so that should help alleviate some of the pricing pressure. So that's big news. Again, another plus for this administration, another plus for the American consumer. Plus, not to mention, we got a ton of oil. We got a ton of this stuff.

I mean, it's coming out the wazoo, and Donald Trump is going to make sure that we're going to get even more of it. I want to share with you some news that just crossed this afternoon. Do we have it for you? This is about more oil drilling in the U.S., actually off the course.

coast of California. Forgive me, I don't have the article to show you, but I'll just tell you what's going on. He's planning to use a kind of novel legal strategy saying that this is, you know, a time of stress, a time of war, et cetera, and thus we should be able to drill off the coast of California. Well, you know the Gavin and company, they're going to go absolutely bonkers when they hear this, but we'll see where it goes. He's certainly making the effort. He wants to get all the resources he can right here at home. Meanwhile, does he even need to, because I'm looking at this going, wait a second, did Donald Trump just end the war? Did he just up and say, you know, enough already? This is interesting. I want to play for you some

sound from earlier today. He was touring a factory in Ohio and he was asked about the war and he basically said it's an excursion. And then later on doubled down on this whole idea of it was just an excursion. So don't call it a war. I mean, it was a war for them, but not for us. Watch. But 47 bad years we suffered with them, not only us. the rest of the world. We're doing our jobs. So we had to take an excursion, but it's doing well. The market's holding up well. I figured it would be hit a little bit, but we were hit probably less than I thought, and we'll be back on track in a pretty short while. Prices are coming down

very substantially. Oil will be coming down. That's just a matter of war that happens. You can almost predicted. I would say it went up a little bit less than we thought. It's going to come down more than we, than anybody understands. Do you have any questions, Peter? Yes. You just said it is a little excursion and you said it's a war. So which one is it? Well, it's both. It's both. It's a an excursion that will keep us out of a war. And the war is going to be, I mean, for them, it's a war. For us, it's turned out to be easier that we thought. But think of it. They had thousands of missiles, seven, eight thousand missiles. We got many of them before they got to launch.

They have drones all over the place. We got many. Now we're knocking out the drone plants as, you know, going fast. They started talking about mines. So we hit 28 mine chips as of this moment, 28, like using the same weapon, the exact same weapon that we use against the drug dealers in the order. Yeah. So we got some experience in this field.

shall we say. We've got some experience and we're taking out the minds, we're taking out the bad actors there that were throwing these, you know, well, throwing these missiles, not throwing, but you get what I mean. At the warships, the warships for Iran, we've taken them all out, okay? Like we've decimated their navy and that's important. That is absolutely massive. He, you know, he's making this point that their navy is now non-existent. I'm going to let him say it because He's got his military terminology down a little bit better than Trish Riegan. But think of it. They had thousands of missiles, seven, eight thousand missiles.

We got many of them before they got to launch. They have drones all over the place. We've got many. Now we're knocking out the drone plants as, you know, going fast. They started talking about mines. So we hit 28 mine ships as of this moment, 28, like using the same weapon, the exact same weapon that we use against the. drug dealers in the order in the

Okay, we talked about that. I think this is a big deal though. So now we're sitting here going, wait a second. Is this war still like really going on? What exactly does he mean? Because he says we've decimated the Navy, we've taken out two rounds of leadership. I know he doesn't want the Ayatollah son in there, but if we could get that straight of Hormuz, open back up, hey, maybe we're off and running. And Iran, meanwhile, is begging for the whole thing to end. We get it. You have to take them with a grain of salt, and we have to see whether or not we can trust them.

But I think a big part of this is going to be that straight of her moves. The president saying earlier today, the oil companies, you know what, they should just go for it. You should just start sending the ships through. They're obviously nervous because they don't want to lose any of those ships. They don't want to lose any of their personnel. He said before that our Navy could escort them. It doesn't look like that's happening. But he's like, hey, it's fine.

which tells me he thinks this whole thing is over. Watch. Are you talking to the CEOs of various oil companies, encouraging them to use this straight-up form? Yeah, I think they should. I think they should use it. Mr. President, how do you respond? Look, we took out just about all of their mindships in one night. We're up to boat number 60.

I didn't realize that that bigger Navy. I would say it was big and ineffective. But every one of their ships, just about all of their Navy is gone at the bottom of this day. Is it a breath of hope? Does they laid any minds in the Strait of Hormuz? We don't think so. Okay, so he said go for it. Again, we've got a lot of things going on.

We've got oil coming back on market from the IEA with the largest release ever. We've got the potential for that Strait of Hormuz to open up sooner than you thought. We've got potential for this whole thing to end sooner than we've got potential. we thought. So all of that sounds good, which is why, you know what, the reaction that you're seeing in the market is really muted, like I told you it would be, and like the president told you it would be. But again, we can't tell CNN. You can't tell CNN anything. They're going to report something different, or they're just going to, you know, make up falsehoods along the way. Whoops, she did it again, or CNN did anyway. Abby Phillips, you guys know

this woman, she kind of gets into it a little bit with our friend Scott Jennings and he's like, boop, boop, and she's gone, right? Actually, it's like boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, because there's like seven or eight of them on set and he's got to like tackle them all. It's really entertaining. It's their best rated show. I've looked at this because I'm like, oh, that news is so boring and everybody says the same thing over and over again, but you know, that show that she hosts actually does pretty well. And it's all thanks to our friend Scott Jennings, but. But, you know, she didn't have Scott Jennings to help correct her recently. And so she said this.

Once again, reflecting her bias, or at least the bias of the people that write her scripts. Watch. Up next, two Republicans say Muslims don't belong here. After an attempted terror attack against New York's mayor, Zohanam Dhani, and the House Speaker, Mike Johnson, says nothing really to condemn those comments. Another special guest is going to be with us at the table when we come back. So did you hear that? It was an attack on Mamdami.

Because, of course, in CNN's mind, it's always an attack on Mamdami or somebody of color or somebody, you know, they have their own preconceived biases, shall we say. So she did put out an apology, a rare thing for a CNN anchor today because people are kind of annoyed, right? Like we're sick and tired of this. It's just constant. And, you know, it comes on the heels of what they did. yesterday, which I'll remind you about, but her tweet said, I want to correct something I said last night. The bombs thrown in New York City over the weekend by ISIS-inspired attackers was thrown into a crowd of anti-Muslim protesters and not specifically targeting Mayor Mamdami.

That wording was inaccurate and I didn't catch it ahead of time. I apologize for the error. Okay, okay. So probably, I'm guessing, she doesn't take the time to read her scripts before she goes on the air. and she obviously probably doesn't write her scripts. I actually always wrote mine. Except the teases. In fairness, I can understand it might happen because you're reading something in the prompter

and you're like, you try to focus so that you're not out to lunch saying something wrong that somebody writes. But the reality is a good anchor should be able to write their own intros, should be able to ad-lib their own intros, but unfortunately the business has become nothing about a bunch of talking heads that read these little prompters and have their own biases

reflected by their little team of producers, all of whom think that, well, of course, of course they would be going after Mamdami. Of course, you know, he's the victim. He's always the victim. And so I think, you know, in fairness to her, sure. Maybe it was just her not doing her job and reading her teases ahead of going on air and allowing some little minion in the newsroom to write for her. It's a problem in the industry in general.

You know, but it comes on the heels of something else, where another little minion, apparently at CNN, decided to put this out. This is like, you know, just hours before, and I quote, two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning for what could have been a normal day enjoying the city during abnormally warm weather. I said yesterday. It feels like a Norman Rockwell scene, right? Oh, just out for an afternoon stroll, going to the big city.

But in less than an hour, they, right? Their lives would be drastically changed. the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs during an anti-Muslim protest outside, Mayor Zohan Mamdami's home. Here's what we know so far. Oh, are you kidding me? I mean, tell us your bias without telling us your bias. I mean, that's just so overt and people were annoyed. I played you yesterday, even the FCC chair. If you want to go watch it, go check yesterday's live show. Branding Carr was like, are you kidding me? And that's a problem for them. I saw one of you guys saying, hey, I thought they got bought. They did. They got bought by Paramount, but the

deal hasn't closed yet. And Paramount, of course, owns CBS. So you don't want the FCC all annoyed about your tweet at your cable station because that might affect your broadcast station. Just saying, okay, just saying. And, you know, if you're smart, and David Ellison is, he's going to be running the place. They're not going to be having a little moment like that too often. It goes on. Here, they issued the corrections. So they have two corrections in two days. G. CNN, a post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of New York City, Mayor Zohan Memdami's home failed to reflect the gravity of the incident. Thereby breaching the editorial standards we require for all our reporting. It has therefore been deleted.

I should hope so. You know, delete it pretty fast, but, you know, this anchor, she wasn't done. She wasn't done. No, she had to go back for more. And if you have any doubt of the bias that she clearly has, you need to see this. want. So I can't speak for Mike Johnson, but I would say we've had two terrorist attacks here in the last 10 days. And can we condemn those?

Why are we... Of course. What does that have to do with Muslims? There is a radical strain of Islam that's led to these terrorist attacks. Obviously, the vast majority of Muslims are peaceful. What does that have to do with Muslims? The fact that we've had two terror attacks? from Muslim extremists and this woman who has an anchor job on CNN wants you to think that

there's no connection? I mean, do you feel gaslit? Well, hopefully you're not watching that channel, so you don't feel gaslit, but you might have some friends that are a little bit gaslit, or you may have some friends that actually believe this crappola, okay? And I'm sorry they're your friends, but, you know, we're trying to help them. Tell them to come over here and watch the Trish Riegan show. Let's continue on listening to Ms. Phillips with the lovely Lydia Moynihan.

I believe she works for the New York Post, I think. Don't quote me on it. ...ideologies here and all around the world. What does that have to do with whether Muslims belong in American society as a group? Yeah, let's be clear. I'd like to hear the answer. I'm talking... Let's go back one more time.

All right, I want to hear that again. Because you can see Lydia is saying she's just talking about what Mike Johnson was saying, And then somehow this Abby lady takes it to a whole other level that clearly Lydia is not even talking about. Here we go. Yeah, let's be clear. Let's look. All around the world. What does that have to do with whether Muslims belong in American society as a group?

That's not what she was talking about. And that's not what Mike Johnson was talking about. Here we go. Yeah, let's be clear. She's like, I don't know what you're talking about. Like, that's not at all what I said. I was simply making the point that there is a connection. between the terror attacks and extremeists that believe in the Muslim religion, period.

Okay? That's an obvious fact, and you can state that. And you don't need to challenge her on it, Abby, because it's a fact. To hear the answer. I'm talking about what Mike Johnson was saying. That's what I'm talking about. I'm talking about what he didn't say. What I'm talking about is what he didn't say.

He can be tough on Islamian extremism without compromising our commitment to religious liberty. He was he chiding those two members of Congress. And by the way, as a Republican, as a Republican, I believe that the same, I believe that the same amendment. There are strong language that's being thrown around. The same amendment that gives those two members of Congress. Is it bigotry, Joe? The same amendment that gives those two members of Congress the right to say things that are offensive, that I find actually offensive as well, is the same amendment that permits Muslim people to be here proudly and practice their faith.

That said that Mike Johnson should. I mean, it's just, it's, it's annoying, okay? It's annoying. And, you know, she does this all the time. I want to go back to a clip that this might have happened when the war first broke out. We first saw those strikes happening. And this woman is on the set basically saying we should just sit back and, like, take it. Like, it doesn't matter. So what? They go after our NBC's all the time. And like, why are we striking now? We, you know, really doubting any intelligence that the president may have been presented with. and actively sort of saying, well, who cares? And Scott Jennings, who he takes her on? It's pretty darn good.

He's been talking to the press. He has not suggested that there was an imminent. He absolutely has said that there is an imminent threat of them having ballistic missiles that they were, A, possibly planning to shoot at U.S. military installations, B, and in the short and medium term, continuing to manufacture ballistic missiles that would allow them to shield a nuclear program

that they would not give up. This is a pretty clear rationale. Let me play. The bottom line is they don't want them to have ballistic missiles. They don't want them to have a nuclear program. They don't like that their Navy makes trouble for everybody in the Gulf. And that is the stated rationale. You could throw on other things for the last 47

years. They have killed American troops. They've maimed American personnel. They've exported and funded terror around the world and around the region. And you seem to be suggesting we have no allies in this. I watch the president with the Chancellor of Germany today. He strongly supports what we're doing. The U.K. is feckless. Spain is feckless, but we have plenty of allies in the region and around the world

who know we have done the right thing. So to be clear, I just want to just read you just listed a bunch of things. None of them were an imminent attack. But Rena's question is actually about. Ballistic missiles, Abby. No, there are imminent attack weapons. What proof is there that there were ballistic missiles, that they actually had ballistic missiles that could reach the United States? Reach U.S. bases. Look at your television. They're falling right now. Iran has, Iran has been attacking through their proxies. U.S. military. basis for some time now, okay? You want to keep that going or the argument that the administration may be making sometimes

is that they might have had capabilities to attack the United States? What about that is imminent? Are you all arguing that they are not, were not prepared and are not currently firing missiles and drones into things that, of course. It's not that. I mean, everybody understands the threat of Iran. It's been there, to quote Tom Cotton. for 47 years.

Yeah. The question is, what changed in the last 30 days? Abby, can I get a president that had the ball to take care of it? I guess. That's the question that everybody. Because we have a president who had the Cajonis to get care of it. 47 years. By the way, he made that really clear in the speech in Kentucky today saying, you know what?

47 years. But then we decided to have, oh, how shall we say, a little incursion, right? That little incursion that just changed the world. changed the world in a pretty epic way for a generation, let's hope. I mean, I don't know if it's naivete. I don't know if she's just, obviously, she must be sort of on the side of Palestine, if I can even say the word Palestine. She's on the side of the Gaza people, and by, you know, by inference,

I guess she's on the side of Iran. But yeah, it's been that way for 47 years. you want to continue on while technology gets better and better, and the Iranians get more and more access to nuclear weaponry and then have the opportunity to take out the whole Middle East? No, Trump was not going to let that happen. Didn't he say that? On my watch, it's not happening. We did an excursion.

You know what an excursion is? We had to take a little trip to get rid of some evil, very evil people. It should have been done for 47 years they've been killing our people. 47 years. 47 years. And I can only say this. They were all prepared. They're very strong.

You know, they were going to try and take over the whole Middle East. They were going to knock out Israel. They don't know what the hell hit them, right? They don't know what they got hit by the American military. They don't know. They say, what the hell is happening? They didn't expect anything like this. Oh, they sure didn't.

But you know what? We have the greatest military on earth. And sometimes you may not want to, but sometimes you have to use it. Because sometimes some people do not take you seriously. And you look at what happened with Iran over the years. You look at what happened with Barack Obama. He was scared. He just kept giving them more money thinking, oh, you know, if they join the world economy,

they're going to be better. Well, no, they're not going to be better because, you see, they're led by an Ayatollah who has a religious extremism bent. They can't join the world economy. They're never going to be able to play on the world stage until they get, rid of that nonsense. Thank you very much. Quick shout out to one of our great sponsors here on the Trish Vegan show. We love these guys, Balance of Nature. You hear me talk about them all the time, but I'm going to talk about them again some more because if you haven't gone to balance of nature.com, please do. And use my code word Trish, so you get a great discount. And you know what? You can be

taking your fruits and veggies too, just like I do. And then you're going to be as healthy as you can imagine possibly being, you know, I mean, I drink my water, I try to eat right, I go to the gym, I take walks and I take my balance in nature. So not bad for a routine. And I like knowing that I'm getting all of these vitamins. They have a very specific scientific process where they basically freeze this before they grind it up and put it into this balance in nature formula, which you can put on your food, you can put into your drink. And so you're preserving, the science enables them to preserve the actual real stuff, the real ingredients that matter. Those are the vitamins that are so crucial for all of us. So you get all kinds of different things. I mean, I can't even name all the

different vegetables and fruits off the top of my head, but I know that you get blueberry and you get ginger and you get, I have to have the list in front of me and I don't want to screw it up, but there's a lot of them. There's definitely a lot of them. And I would say that, you know, just don't take my word for it. You can go to the website and look at everybody's wonderful comments about it. Or you can talk to one of your friends because you'd be amazed how many people take this stuff. I mean, I got people coming up to me saying, hey, Trish, I didn't realize Balance of Nature was a sponsor on your show. I've been taking it for years, so I can't get them as a new customer, but I'm glad

that they're taking it. And so it's a very, very popular product and deservingly so. All right, I got to get to this story because I can't stand Seattle. Do we have anybody from Seattle watching right now before I diss Seattle? Seattle is one of those places that I really. Seattle is one of those places that I can't stand because it's so darn woke. Well, somebody else is making a decision. I mean, I don't know if he can't stand it. He probably actually likes it. But the problem with it being so darn woke is it also comes with higher taxes, including a higher estate tax, including a higher capital gains tax, a capital gains tax, period, unlike Florida. And so, you know, if you got any money, you certainly don't want to be living in the likes of Seattle. And now

the Starbucks founder and former CEO. Howard Schultz is saying, Sayanara, bye-bye, Seattle. It's been nice. I'm going to Florida, Red State, Florida, and I'm heading to Miami. That's where all the cool kids are hanging out. I got to be there too.

He released this in a post on LinkedIn. It's a really long post, so I'm not going to bore you with it. But basically, he's been in Seattle for 47 years, 44 years, forgive me, 47's on my mind because of what's going on in Iran. 44 years ago, he and his wife made this trip across the country. You know, he's actually got a great story, a wonderful story. I am trying to think where I heard it, maybe on a podcast, about how he started this business, and it's just tremendous.

It's really, I encourage you to kind of dig around and find it because it's a great success story, regardless of what you think of him, he is at least smart enough to know he's got to get out of Seattle, Washington, and head to Miami, Florida, where it's at. So he's been there a long time. His wife was the main breadwinner back then when he started this company and, you know, the rest is history. Starbucks is not my taste for coffee. I actually much prefer McDonald's or Dunkin' Donuts, believe it or not. See, I'm really not that fancy. I'm really not. I'm just a simple girl from New Hampshire when it's all said and done.

I do not need my mochiato. I do not need my cafe au lait or cafe latte. I'm perfectly happy with just a good cup of coffee from McDonald's or Dunkin' Donuts. What about you guys? Do you like Starbucks? You know I learned early on, I'm going to tell you some more about him relocating, but I learned early on when I was first working that that was really damaging to my weekly budget. And so if I wanted to get a cup of coffee, first of all, it would never be the latte because I couldn't swing the however many dollars that it was way back then, even, you know, 20 years ago, whatever it was, I think it was still like three or four bucks. Now it's like seven, right?

Anyway, I never wanted to pay that because that adds up over time, right? I didn't need to go and get my morning jolt of coffee and stand in line with a zillion other people for them to call out my name. No thank you, no thank you. Overpriced, very strong, not so good coffee in my estimation. But I'm not taken away from Howard everything that he's done because he built quite a company. But he's like, yeah, I'm out of here. Why am I out of here? Because.

sucks. He's not saying that. Okay, he loves it, I'm sure. I'm sure if they had a better tax situation, he might still be there. But here's the reality. I mean, there's no income tax. Actually, there's no income tax in Seattle. I don't believe either, which is amazing. But no income tax in Florida, and importantly no capital gains tax. So all that money he has in Starbucks stock, he can go to Florida, he can cash it all in, Kaching, and not have to pay any tax on it. So that's a big deal. I mean, they've got long-term capital gains at 7% out. You've got to play long-term capital gains to the federal government plus whatever you're going to pay there in Washington and Seattle. So they also have much better estate planning. He's getting older in his life. He's probably thinking about,

what am I going to leave my kids? And, well, I don't want to leave it all to Seattle, right? Now, I think I'm heading to Florida. Like I said, where all the cool kids are. And there's quite a swanky little enclave there where Ivanka Trump lives and Tom Brady and Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg. It's called Indian Creek. Indian Creek Island. You have to get like on a special bridge. There's only one bridge in and out so it's very secure and everybody likes to have their home there. So this has become very popular. I mean Miami, I was just down there recently. It is just growing and growing and growing and growing. It's amazing and that's almost become the New York, right? because everybody's like, let me get the AT&L out of New York City and head to some nicer weather

and some nicer people and some better government, right? Who the heck wants Mamdami? I'd be the heck out of New York City. Thank God I don't live there anymore for goodness sakes. Anyway, Indian Creek, 41 island properties, 41 lots. It's in Biscayne Bay. And like I said, you know, all the cool kids are there. So maybe he's taking a look at that.

You have Mark Zuckerberg, who's recently bought there too. He loves Miami, probably for not just the weather, but the taxes. Okay, so everybody is thinking about this in different ways. I guess for Florida, you just have to hope that you don't get so many liberals in there that they change the place. Because what is special about it is its belief in limited government. You know, you think about, I was just talking about this with somebody the other day, you think about what they did to us during COVID, right?

And how they just locked everything down and how it was at least, like a reign of terror, if you would. I live in the Northeast, and in the Northeast, it was like everybody was just crazy. I mean, like, they're all wearing three masks. You go outside for a walk. I'd go to the beach, I'd go for a walk, and someone, like, would start yelling at me for not having a mask on.

I'm like, it's a windy day. We're outside, for goodness sakes, give me a break. But that was the hysteria you had in the Northeast. And in contrast, in contrast, in Florida, everybody was, like, out, having a steak dinner, like, enjoying themselves. It was a far more normal setup, if you would. And I think, you know, if the Democrats had had their way, they would have kept that lockdown going.

I mean, look at how much fun. That woman, oh, what's her name? The sort of witchy one, you know, out in the Midwest in Michigan. She was going to be their next big star until everybody figured out there was not a whole lot upstairs. I mean, did you see her try and talk about international relations at the Munich thing recently? That was a disaster.

and a half, let me just say, but she had no problem locking everything down. You couldn't even go to your vacation house that was one or two towns away. You know, all while apparently her husband could go and take out his boat anytime he wanted there, any which time you want Michigan, okay? You guys will help me out. I'm having a Joe Biden kind of moment if you would. I keep a lot stored up in this head. There are no scripts on this show because I don't like scripts.

And I actually, when I first started, I thought, oh, well, you know, I'll put a little script together. And I was like, this is not any fun. Like, I just want to have fun. Like, I'm in a different point in my career. And, like, I do this because I love it. And I love you guys. And I love that you're here. We do have a good time.

And I look at your comments and we, you know, we're going back and forth in real time. And so as a result, Gretchen, thank you. Cat Crazy Sam, 65, Nogrom. You guys, you got me, you got my back. That would be actually what a producer would do in. in a, you know, they'd sense you kind of floundering in television, and you have a little earpiece in, and they'd be like, Gretchen, it's Gretchen Whitmore. Anyway, so Gretchen was like really into this Gestapo kind of, we're going to control where

you go, et cetera. And so that was the mentality in all the Democrat states. And then you go to the Republican ones, and it was like, woo-hoo, party time. I mean, if you're older, I get it, right? If you were older and you were therefore more in danger than they advised you. I think the, I don't know if it was a lot of it was. over 60 or if it was over 65, but they encouraged people to stay home. Everybody else, it was like just live your life, which was a far better way of approaching all of this. And given where I grew up in live free or die in New Hampshire, listen, I don't want big government telling me I have to wear a mask and I have to stay home and I can't go about my life. And so you know how passionately I feel

about all of that. We've been through it together. Heck, I sort of lost my job over it because I dared to speak up. I mean, even in a conservative network, you just, there were things that you could do or not do. And I'm so delighted that we're now at a point where the president is in charge and we've kind of gotten through that hurdle, but I hope and pray that he hangs on to this power because I really don't want to be looking at the Democrats going after him and indicting him all over again. We don't need a 2.0 situation there, do we? It's great to see you guys. If you haven't joined the Trish Regan membership. It's like Team Trish. I welcome you to join that. I want to again thank the last Boy Scout who actually, in yesterday's show, bought you guys a whole bunch of

free memberships, which is very, very nice to do. So we appreciate that. I'm glad to see Leslie back in the house. I know the show was a little bit later today. I had some stuff with my kids earlier, and then, you know, I put all this together myself and I get so excited with every single little element that comes in. I'm like, oh, I have to get that and I have to get that and I have to get that. to get that and I have to get that. So sometimes I get a lot and it means I'm on a little bit later, but I appreciate you being here. And maybe we have some new people too because it's a different time. We'll probably be back on schedule tomorrow. But I thank you again for being here and subscribing to the Trish Regan show and I'll see you live tomorrow.
