Starting point is 00:00:00 This has been a very difficult last almost 24 hours at this point. My heart goes out to all the families who have lost their loved ones. We're going to get into all of that, including some of the president's comments and his dust up with the media surrounding that tragic event. But I'll tell you, this is also a time when you're going to see a lot of reckoning in a lot of change. in how things are done. They're in government and it's going to affect one Letitia James. Kosh Patel about to be confirmed there. We heard from him earlier today and I just want to show you. He's got, what, 94% chance? 94% chance. He's up 36%. Let me tell you, Polymarkets usually spot on on this.
Starting point is 00:00:51 They got the election before anyone. And I think this does suggest we get ourselves a new head of the FBI. And boy, oh boy, does Washington not like this. conscious promising to investigate fully when and where needed. And you know what? He doesn't want to have what happened to Donald Trump, happen to any other politician ever again. He's insisting that, you know what, we do the right thing by everyone. I want to go to an excerpt from him here on Capitol Hill today.
Starting point is 00:01:19 I am telling you, he means business. And Letitia James, watch out because he's coming for you. For sure. confirmed as the next FBI director, I will remain focused on the FBI's core mission. That is to investigate fully wherever there is a constitutional factual basis to do so, and to never make a prosecutorial decision that is solely the providence of the Department of Justice and the Attorney General. For the first eight years after law school, I served as a public defender, first for Miami-Dade County and later for the Southern District of Florida. During that time, I represented some pretty awful human beings, charged with some pretty
Starting point is 00:02:02 heinous crimes. But what I learned there was the core value that has been enshrined in me since. That due process must be provided without bias to all Americans. And if we cannot provide due process to the worst, then there can be no due process for anyone and our constitutional republic fails. But I battled on that hill for that due process. Yeah. And that means Tish James, I think that given where you went and everything you did and the enormous fees that you tried to impose on the president, we're going to have some problems. We're going to have a lot of problems. With other Democratic AGs across this country to make sure that we would be ready to respond to any attempt to roll back our rights. So here we are.
Starting point is 00:02:56 We've studied their platforms. We've identified certain possibilities, fact patterns. We've created contingency plans. So no matter what the next administration throws at us, we're ready. Yeah. Okay. Well, glad to hear that because you better be ready. Because I have a feeling, just a little feeling, just a little inkling,
Starting point is 00:03:19 judging from some of what I heard from Kosh Patel today, that he's actually going to be coming for you. And you know what? I'll go back to Polymarket. It's looking like this guy's going to get confirmed. So this is going to be the new head of the FBI. And I think you're going to have to answer a few questions. I mean, Eric Trump was asking these questions back in 2023 when you were going after his dad. He laid it out pretty well here. You have a corrupt attorney general who literally ran on the campaign promise to taking down my father. She goes, I'm going to go after Donald. I'm going to take down his family.
Starting point is 00:03:46 I'm going to go after his children. I'm going to get her exact quote. I'm going to get to the office of Attorney General every day. I'm going to sue Donald Trump and then I'm going to go home. I mean, she fundraise off of this nonsense. Like, this was her entire platform going out after Donald, right after my father. Then obviously she gets into office and she does exactly that, and you've got a crooked court and everything else. But actually, I think we're making a breakthrough with the judge.
Starting point is 00:04:06 I think they're trying to realize there are no victims. First of all, my father's statements are undervalued, not overvalued. Second of all, she's going after banks. She's trying to protect banks that made hundreds of millions of dollars with Trump, meaning there were no aggrieved party. There were no defaults. There were no mis-mone provenance. You guys made money.
Starting point is 00:04:23 That's why. We would borrow money, you know, go do a great project, you know, be very successful. Jobs and homes. Pay a tremendous amount of interest and then pay the banks back at full. Like, we never had so much as a default. No one, so we're saying they're saying, is there a victim in this? I mean, you're suing us and there's no victim, but Carly, it's nonsense. The DOJ has told Letitia James to make my father's life hell, to keep him tied up in a courtroom,
Starting point is 00:04:48 to cost him tens and tens of millions of dollars to distract him. Right. And that's exactly what she did. And this is what she campaigned on. He's absolutely right. I mean, what kind of world are we living in? When you campaign on one thing, you're just going to get someone because he's your political enemy and you think it's actually going to land you some campaign dollars. This is what she did. You know it. He's called me venomous. We will fight back to your attempt to bring Trumpism to New York City. He's called me disgraceful. He's called me radical.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Listen, we know he's crazy. He's called me a racist. We've got to stand up to an administration, which is two male, two pale, and two stale. Okay. So, you know the drill. All right, you know who she is, you know what she did. But what Kosh is going to try and get at, and this is what's going to unravel everything, and this is what everybody's so freaked out about, is just exactly what role Merrick Garland,
Starting point is 00:06:11 the DOJ, Biden, et cetera, played in all of this. because I have a feeling they played a pretty decent instrumental role. This is something that Matt Gates was trying to get at when he was in the House of Representatives. I want to show you this exchange he has with Garland, and he's pushing him and he's asking just exactly what kind of communications did you guys have. It has now come out that we know at least they were communicating with Fannie Willis's BF, who was running the case down in Georgia. That was all thrown out because of disqualification, of course.
Starting point is 00:06:44 really lousy attorneys right across the board that were involved in this. Anyway, you've got Merrick Garland who can't answer Matt Gates' question. This is really important. We've got to get back to this. And I know Kosh Will. I want to play it for you. Here we go. Communicating with these state and local prosecutions against Trump,
Starting point is 00:07:00 you can clear it all up for us right now. Will the Department of Justice provide to the committee all documents, all correspondence between the department and Alvin Bragg's office and Fannie Willis office and Leticia James' office. the offices you're referring to are independent offices of state. I get that. I get that. The question is whether or not you will provide all of your documents and correspondence. That's the question.
Starting point is 00:07:24 I don't need a history lesson. Well, I'm going to say again, we do not control those offices. They make their own decisions. The question is whether you communicate with them, not whether you control them. Do you communicate with them and will you provide those communications? You make a request, we'll refer it to our office of legislative affairs. But see, here's the thing. You come in here and you lodge this at.
Starting point is 00:07:43 attack that it's a conspiracy theory that there is coordinated law fair against Trump. And then when we say, fine, just give us the documents, give us the correspondence, and then if it's... But they couldn't. You see, or they wouldn't. And instead, they leveled a nearly $500 million. That's half a billion, guys. Like, this is a lot of money, right?
Starting point is 00:08:06 It makes no sense. Against Donald Trump, in the case of Leticia James. and Judge Erdogan there, who, Arthur, who somehow thought that Mar-a-Lago was worth only $18 million? I mean, this was bonkers. Remember this is part of the case, actually. Just after he won the presidency, his lawyers came out, and they tried to get her to drop this in the interest of the country. And they're like, you know, this doesn't really make any sense, because Mar-a-Lago, you were trying to say was somewhere around $18 million, $18 million, it makes more than $56 a year. Like, why would it be worth? Usually things trade on a multiple, right? You might say it's going to trade it 10 times earnings. Well, if the earnings are 56, how are you valuing it at 18? I'm sorry, Letitia. Like, you're not even a good lawyer, but forget about, forget about valuing any kind of assets. And yet, they come up with this $500, nearly $500 million fine, and she's out ready to seize his assets, just waiting so she can take over Trump Tower and take over his golf courses. It's nuts, you guys.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Four days after a judge ordered Donald Trump to pay $355 million for a decade of fraud. New York Attorney General Leticia James says she's prepared to do everything she can to make sure the former president pays his fine, including she told us, seizing the buildings that bear his name. If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment, then we will seek judgment enforcement mechanisms in court. and we will ask the judge to seize his assets. That's what she was waiting for. She just wanted to seize those. I mean, it's bonkers.
Starting point is 00:09:50 So now it's in the appellate court, right? And we're waiting on the Court of Appeals, who really can't get off there, you know what, is, and they're sitting there, and they haven't done a damn thing yet. Even though we know how they feel, I mean, they wouldn't even let Judith Vale, who was representing New York and Letitia James.
Starting point is 00:10:08 She's at the appellate court, right? So she's supposed to be a little bit smarter, the judges are supposed to be a little bit smarter at the appellate court. Here's the New York Court of Appeals. They wouldn't let her get a word out. 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
Starting point is 00:10:25 which the Attorney General sued under Executive Law, 63212, 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 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
Starting point is 00:11:01 of properties and businesses. Yes. And where the victim never complained about any fraud of the transactional losses from, because I've gone through the cases which you've cited, and all of them always involved the consumer protection aspect. It involved protection of the market. And I want to add to his question, and little to no impact on the public marketplace.
Starting point is 00:11:26 Boom, okay, so no impact on the public markets. You have no victim. It sounds, as the judge said, like a private case. And yet, Letitia brought it anyway. And now we're in a situation where she's promising, to double down. She's doubling down, but yet, you know, you got one Kosh Patel who's coming in and said the FBI, and I think he's going to be wanting to do some of his due diligence to figure out just exactly how this all came about, which is why people like Dick Durbin are so freaked out.
Starting point is 00:11:55 And he goes on CNN, he's trying to talk down cash and say, oh, he's not qualified. Let me tell you, the guy's qualified. It is such a loss. Are you aware the hearing is still going on as planned today in less than an hour, frankly. Yes, at 930, we're going to start the hearing on the person the President has chosen to lead the Federal Bureau of Investigation. I can tell you, I have some questions, serious questions about his competence for that responsibility. Remember, we're talking about 38,000 criminal and civil investigators in the premier law enforcement
Starting point is 00:12:32 agency, not just in the United States, but in the world. We want a person there who is responsible, experienced, and can't. can handle this awesome responsibility. Senator, you have general questions, as you just said, about his ability to handle an agency of that size. But you also have very specific questions about a specific moment during the end of the Trump administration. Explain.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Well, I can tell you that there was... You don't have to go searching for a playbook when it comes to Mr. Cash Patel. He has published a book called Government Gangsters, which goes into... excursiating detail about his theories on political conspiracies and retribution against those who did not treat him properly over the years. To give this man the authority of leading the Federal Bureau of Investigation, I think is questionable. We need someone with sound judgment
Starting point is 00:13:26 who is not driven by politics, and Mr. Patel does not fit that description. Understood. And I was referring to the hostage rescue and his... Okay, yeah, like... Biden's people were not driven by politics? Are you kidding me? I mean, he says this, right, with a straight face. So they hate him because they're terrified of what he is going to find out. Alvin Bragg, Letitia James, Fannie Willis, and Jack Smith. They're so freaked out about what is about to be uncovered if Kosh gets the gig and Kash is going to get the gig because, well, you know, I'm basing this on polymarket, which tends to have a pretty good instinct on these things.
Starting point is 00:14:11 94% chance at this point in time. He's going to get confirmed. Pete Hagseth got confirmed. RFK is going to get confirmed. I'm telling you, the whole world is going to change as you know it. Maybe Tulsi, we'll talk about that in a little bit. But Joy Reed, you know, she's the one who was just, oh, thank goodness, you know, all these people like Letitia and Fannie and Alvin, they're bringing it home for me in prison. But for me, there is something wonderfully poetic about the fact that despite the fact that even if convicted, he's not going to go to prison, the first person to actually criminally prosecute Donald Trump is a black Harvard grad, the very kind of person that his former staff, the people who worked for him, Stephen Miller, et cetera, want to never be at Harvard law school.
Starting point is 00:15:03 But he was. And he came out and graduated, and he's prosecuting you, Donald. And a black woman is doing that same exact thing in Georgia. And a black woman forced you to pay $175 million fine. That's now also in question because the people who put it up, that might not be legit. Donald Trump is being held to account by the very multicultural, multiracial democracy that he's trying to dismantle. And for me, there's something poetic and actually wonderful about that. It says something good about our country that we're still capable of having that happen.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Go DEI. If my DEIs are bringing it home on today. Her DEIs are bringing it home? A bunch of lawsuits that, by the way, you know, I guess they got Alvin Bragg, and they can brag that they got the felony conviction there. But that's eventually going to get tossed out in the appellate court. Latisha James has got nothing. In fact, if anything, if you listen to what those appellate judges were saying, they were like, wait a second. We need to make sure that like this kind of stuff doesn't happen before because again,
Starting point is 00:16:05 because if it happened here, it could happen again and we need to rein in these very politically motivated prosecutors. And the DEIs, I'm sorry, but like Ben there done that. Like that's not working. It's not working for this country. You know, we are a meritocracy and we were founded on that. In the United States of America, we don't care what color you are. We don't care what sex you are. We only care that you can get the job done. Let me tell you. That's all Donald Trump care. about for sure. I mean, for goodness sakes, we saw that today. Did we not? We saw that on display. He said over and over and over again, we can't be relying on DEI. We're going to get into that coming up. It's one of the reasons I started 76 research, by the way, my financial firm, 76 research.com,
Starting point is 00:16:50 use code word dollar. You can get the 76 report for just a dollar a month. I encourage you to do that. But this was in part because I saw Wall Street doing this. And I'm like, this makes no sense. I talked to my buddy Rob who'd run billions of dollars for decades on Wall Street. And I'm like, what is going on? We both have the same reaction. So that's partly why we started that. I'll get into more of that later. But I just want to say, like, DEI is not, like, that is not a reason to be doing things.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Really? I mean, if you want diversity because it actually gets you to a better place and you want other perspectives, great. but if you're just trying to check a box because you want to make other people feel better about themselves no no no no look and i'm just going to point this this out you know letitia's going after him now because of well this i'm also signing an executive order to instruct the departments of defense and homeland security to begin preparing the 30 000 person migrant facility at guantanamo bay most people don't even know about it we have 30,000 beds in Guantanamo, to detain the worst criminal illegal aliens threatening the American people.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them because we don't want them coming back, so we're going to send them out to Guantanamo. This will double our capacity immediately, right, and tough. That's a tough place to get out of. Today's signings bring us one step closer to eradicating the scourge of migrant crime in our communities once and for all. And it was just a purely, it's just an unforced error that we even have to be doing this. Now we need Congress to provide full funding for the complete and total restoration of our sovereign borders, as well as financial support to remove record numbers of illegal aliens.
Starting point is 00:18:44 Yeah, well, Latisha apparently doesn't like that very much. Steve Frisch saying, Trump should sign an order, an executive order operation, I'm in part against these people. Look, it's happening, Steve, it's happening, you guys. They are not, this is not the same Trump administration. They have been through hell, okay, for four years. They were trying to bankrupt him. They were trying to put him in his family in jail. They know what the Democrats are capable of, and they want to make sure that that doesn't ever happen again. In the meantime, in the meantime, guess what? He also wants to make sure that the country's in a better position.
Starting point is 00:19:24 So that means, yeah, getting rid of some of the DEI stuff. It means, yeah, arresting criminals. Because, by the way, Letitia, whether you like it or not, the federal government does have jurisdiction over things like who is in the country. You don't have jurisdiction over that. And for the most part, most people don't want criminals in the country. I mean, even Whoopi Goldberg admitted so much on the view just yesterday. This must have taken a lot out of her.
Starting point is 00:19:49 I'm telling me, the contract's on the line. She must be in like renegotiation right now because she's actually, sounding normal. It's just for a couple. But 87% support deporting criminal undocumented virus. Yes. I don't know anybody in the world. Yeah, I don't know anybody in the world who wants to keep the criminals. I don't know anybody. That's why you should be focused.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Can I say something because, you know, the people? No one in the world actually wants to keep the criminals. It's like 87% the polls are overwhelming showing no one actually wants criminals in the country. although ICE tells us we have 650,000 of them. 650,000. And the administration would say, you know what, you're a criminal if you're in this country, illegally, period.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Well, here's Leticia saying, guess what, we got laws. We got laws that protect our immigrants in limit cooperation with federal immigration enforcement efforts. Those laws should be followed by law enforcement and officials in our state. I'll always uphold our laws and protect immigrant New Yorkers. So she's like, you know, going. Owen AWOL. Like she's, she's kind of like left the reservation here. Latisha thinks that New York is its own little country and can do its own little thing. And we hate to remind her, I mean,
Starting point is 00:21:04 she's a lawyer, after all, maybe not a very good one, not a very bright one, just a very political one. Leticia, the federal government, like if they have any power at all, it's the power over who is in our country. It is the power over our borders, lady. Understood? No, she doesn't understand. Here she is just this week talking about how she's going to take on Trump. Not only does this administration's new policy put people at risk, but it is plainly unconstitutional. The president does not get to decide which laws to enforce and for whom. When Congress dedicates funding for a program, the president cannot pull that funding on a whim.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Later today, I am leading and joining with my colleagues, my fellow Democratic Attorney General, and suing this administration to stop this illegal freeze. Okay, so you know where she's going. You're hearing the same thing out of California, and you're going to have these little annexes of places that are all going to try and do this. And I'm just going to remind you that there's a new team in charge. You got Pam Bondi coming in as Attorney General.
Starting point is 00:22:14 You're going to have Kosh Patel running the FBI. So I'm just going to say, Latisha, you know what? He's got some top people. right now who are not going to put up with your BS. And this is one fight. I'm sorry lady, you're just not going to win. She says she's ready though. She's been preparing for this day forever. With other Democratic AGs across this country to make sure that we would be ready to respond to any attempt to roll back our rights. So here we are.
Starting point is 00:22:48 We've studied their platforms. We've identified certain possibilities, fact patterns. We've created contingency plans. So no matter what the next administration throws at us, we're ready. We're ready to respond to their attacks. Okay, yeah, she's been fundraising for a while on this. She's all ready to throw a few more lawsuits out there. She's got one already. She brags about how she got 100 in during the last go-around.
Starting point is 00:23:20 So give her money because she'll sue Trump for it. Listen, this shouldn't be that controversial, okay? Getting rid of DEI should not be controversial. I mean, Martin Luther King is the one who didn't want to see people by color. Now, did he? And yet all they can see is color. Obama, he actually led the charge on getting illegals out of the country. He was right out in front of this.
Starting point is 00:23:42 And by the way, Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton, they all said the same thing. But it's funny how it changes when it's Trump, right? I mean, look, I played this for you guys. I'm going to play it again. If you're a criminal, you'll be deported. If you plan to enter the U.S. illegally, your chances of getting caught and sent back just went up. Oops see, I didn't want to come off. If you're a criminal, you'll be deported.
Starting point is 00:24:07 If you plan to enter the U.S. illegally, your chances of getting caught and sent back just went up. The actions I'm taking are not only lawful, they're the kinds of actions taken by every single Republican president and every single Democratic president for the past half century. And to those members of Congress who question my authority to make our immigration system work better or question the wisdom of me acting where Congress has failed, I have one answer. Pass a bill. Okay. So here's the upshot. Guess what?
Starting point is 00:24:42 Mr. Obama, President Obama sent them all out. He sent out more illegals than any other president. So how does that quite work? Letitia, apparently New York was fine with it then, right? New York was totally fine with it then. It just changes once it's Trump. But you know, Caroline Leavitt made something pretty clear the other day in her press conference. She said, this is how we view it.
Starting point is 00:25:04 We realized Biden didn't see it this way, but this is how we see. 500 arrests ICE has made so far since President Trump came back into office. Can you just tell us the numbers? How many have a criminal record versus those who are just in the country illegally? All of them, because they illegally broke our nation's laws and therefore they are criminals as far as this administration goes. I know the last administration didn't see it that way. So it's a big culture shift in our nation to view someone who breaks our immigration laws as a criminal,
Starting point is 00:25:28 but that's exactly what they are. So there you go. Apparently it had to be said, even though Obama was very out front about sending back people who were here illegally. So this is what you have to conclude is this is about Trump. This is about hating Trump. And they're continuing to make their political careers all about hating Trump. they just want to get in the way. And it's, as Joy said, her favorite DEI is bringing it home.
Starting point is 00:25:59 In prison. But for me, there is something wonderfully poetic about the fact that despite the fact that even if convicted, he's not going to go to prison, the first person to actually criminally prosecute Donald Trump is a black Harvard grad, the very kind of person that his former staff, the people who worked for him, Stephen Miller, et cetera, want to never be at Harvard Law School. But he was. And he came out and graduated.
Starting point is 00:26:29 He's prosecuting you, Donald. And a black woman is doing that same exact thing in Georgia. And a black woman forced you to pay $175 million fine. That's now also in question because the people who put it up, that might not be legit. Donald Trump is being held to account by the very multicultural, multiracial democracy that he's trying to dismantle. And for me, there's something poetic and actually wonderful about that. It says something good about our country that we're still capable of having that happen. Go DEI.
Starting point is 00:27:01 If my DEIs are bringing it home. I mean, that is just sort of pathetic, right? She's saying that. Steve Fischman, he's very much into having some kind of operation, right? You've got to go after Letitia. Maybe she's going to do time. I don't know. I think that there's a lot of people that you have to go after.
Starting point is 00:27:20 I think that this was a very, very sort of wide spanning op. I think that Garland, you know, I want to know, like, how much were they coordinating with all of these people? Also, thank you, Steve, for your generosity. You did watch some of the Tulsi hearing. That's good. We're going to get to the Tulsi hearing because I saw some of that, too. And there's some quotes that are really, really important and significant.
Starting point is 00:27:42 And it relates to what's going on. Like, Cash needs to look into this. Tulsi needs to look into this. And for all those that are trying to say that Kash Patel doesn't have the qualifications, give me a break, well-educated, worked there as a public defender, and Miami-Dade County believes in the justice of our system, right? And if you believe really in what we are as a nation, everybody deserves due process. And this was his point. And this is not what they gave Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:28:09 They didn't offer that to him in any way. He was like automatically guilty just because he was Donald Trump. And now you have to go appeal, appeal, appeal. Well, you know, he's lucky he has the ability to do that. but what about somebody who's just sort of starting out in politics and suddenly they're on the wrong side of things because they're on the wrong side of the guile? It's really bad. Donald Trump, meanwhile, almost responding here, like that that bit from Joy Reid that I just played you talking about go-D-EIs, that's from a while back. I'll tell you, Donald Trump has no use for DEI. Donald
Starting point is 00:28:38 Trump came out right away as soon as he took office, signed an executive order, we're getting rid of DEI, he is done with it. And as it relates to this horrible tragedy, horrible, just, just, just awful, right? Like anytime something like this happens, I just can't stop thinking about the families. And it was a tough night last night as I was watching this news come in and hearing everything. But I will say this, it was very interesting. Donald Trump was all over. He was asking the right questions, actually, like at midnight, saying, why the heck was the helicopter flying so low, what was going on, why didn't they maneuver and get out of the way. And you had Sean Duffy right on the scene, went straight down there. This is our new
Starting point is 00:29:24 transportation secretary. I mean, he had just been sworn in. You think Pete Buttigieg would have done that? Heck, remember when the trains derailed? Where was Pete? Beat didn't show up for months. And Biden didn't show up. Like nobody, nobody gave any information. Instead, last night, you had this very transparent approach. You had Caroline Levitt go right on Fox News, and as she was getting information in in real time, she had just learned that the president had been briefed on it. She was telling the viewers that it was actually really remarkable to see.
Starting point is 00:29:57 And then, of course, Donald Trump sending out a truth last night, asking the right questions, like, why would this helicopter be flying so low? Like, that doesn't make sense. And why didn't they try and get out of the way? What is going on? And of course you had a situation where immediately CNN and others were trying to blame him, which is crazy. But nonetheless, he's frustrated and part of what he wants to change is this diversity, equity,
Starting point is 00:30:25 inclusion thing, because in his view, and by the way, I agree with this wholeheartedly, you know that, we need to get back to being a meritocracy, where people are rewarded because they are actually good at the job. And so today he came out swinging really hard against DEI in the military, in the FAA, and anywhere else in government. I want you to hear it. And then when I left office and Biden took over, he changed them back to lower than ever before. I put safety first. Obama, Biden, and the Democrats put policy first.
Starting point is 00:31:02 And they put politics at a level that nobody's. ever seen because this was the lowest level. Their policy was horrible and their politics was even worse. So as you know, last week long before the crash, I signed an executive order restoring our highest standards for air traffic controllers and other important jobs throughout the country. So it was very interesting. About a week ago, almost upon entering office, I signed something last week that was an executive order very powerful on restoring the highest standards of air traffic controller. So he got heavily criticized for that today. It was like, how dare you bring this up? How dare you suggest that there was any issue with competency, whatever, it's too soon,
Starting point is 00:31:59 and like, you know, in a transparent environment, obviously we're all devastated, devastated, But you also want some answers, right? You want to understand why this happened. And so he did bring this issue up. He did criticize the last administration, specifically the former head of the Department of Transportation, the guy who couldn't show up when the train derailment happened. One Pete Buttigieg, he had some choice words for the former mayor out there in Indiana. The FAA website shows that the agency's guidance on diversity hiring were last updated on March 23rd of 22. They wanted to make it even more so. And then I came in, and I assume maybe this is the reason, the FAA, which is overseen by Secretary Pete Buttigieg, a real winner. That's the guy's a real winner. Do you know how badly everything's run since he's run the Department of Transportation? He's a disaster.
Starting point is 00:33:02 He was a disaster as a mayor. He ran his city into the ground, and he's a disaster now. He's just got a good line of bullshit. The Department of Transportation, his government agency charged with regulating civil aviation. Well, he runs it, 45,000 people, and he's run it right into the ground with his diversity. So he's changing that. Well, he was fired up. I mean, you heard it. We had to bleep it out. You know, Pete Buttigieg in his BS. He decided today he was going to appoint a 22-year veteran of the FAA to run the place.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Listen to this. They are working tirelessly to figure out exactly what happened. We will state certain opinions, however. I'm also immediately appointing an acting commissioner to the FAA, Christopher Rochaloo, a 22-year. year veteran of the agency highly respected. Christopher, thank you very much. Appreciate it. So he's got a new head of the FAA, or at least an interim head of the FAA. He says he's getting rid of DEI. The DEI is the problem. All caused by this wokeness. Oh gosh, don't tell whoopee that. Don't, don't, don't, right? Like she was just saying, gosh, none of you guys, you wouldn't be anywhere if it wasn't for wokeness. Yeah. I would like this young lady who's, this is her
Starting point is 00:34:26 first job. I would like her to do a little homework because she said something yesterday that really pissed me off. This is Caroline Levitt, the wonderful Caroline Levitt, who happens to be from my home state of New Hampshire, young woman, young mother out there working tirelessly. By the way, giving information very transparently late last night. I mean, wow, blowing everybody away, didn't even need a notebook when she did her first press conference, just took questions and spoke directly to those reporters. Anyway, here is Whoopi really just going on and on
Starting point is 00:35:00 about how much she dislikes her because, you know, she doesn't respect wokeness and DEI enough. And that was, she said there will be no wokeness here. Oh, yeah. Let me explain something to you because without that wokeness, you might
Starting point is 00:35:17 not have that job. Yeah. Because because women were not invited to that table. Women were not invited to many tables in this nation. The reason we fought and
Starting point is 00:35:34 busted our behinds to make sure that you didn't have to worry about this. And now to hear you talk about it and to hear anybody talk about the wokenness. The wokeness was put in place for a reason because black people couldn't get into colleges.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Because women could not get into the colleges they wanted to go to. This is all women. See, this is not. black, Asian, this is all women. Women were not invited to this party. It was a man's world, and we busted our asses to make sure that this was a person's world. So please stop using that phrase to talk about
Starting point is 00:36:11 because you don't understand what you're saying. You're saying about yourself that, you know, hey, that's a terrible thing to be. It's not a terrible thing to be. That's why we fought. That's what we were fighting for, so that you could stand in that podium so that Catherine Jean-Pier could stand at that podium. So women of all kinds of colors and ilks, wherever they came from, whatever their belief system was,
Starting point is 00:36:38 they had the opportunity to bust down that door. Okay. The thing is, it's 2025. All right? So we're not living in that world anymore. Guess what? Women can do anything. Heck.
Starting point is 00:36:51 They're doing it all. They're doing it all, whoopi. All right? So you don't need to rely on DEI anymore. Don't you think that we ought to be actually thinking about getting back to actually having women or anyone else in positions because they deserve to be there? I mean, Pete Hegseth had something interesting to say on this, speaking on Fox News with Jesse Waters. I'm. I mean, Pete Hegseth had something interesting to say on this, speaking on Fox News with Jesse Waters. I'm. I mean, Pete Hegs. I mean, Pete Hegs I want to play you this clip because he's our new defense secretary, by the way, talking about how we should think about diversity and how that actually really isn't the strength. The strength is actually unity. Listen. What's happening with DEI? How's that going at the Defense Department? Well, DEI is not going well at the Defense Department because it's dead.
Starting point is 00:37:46 The President said it is inaugural. We will be merit-based and colorblind, and that is the case at the Defense Department. DEI is going to be ripped out root and branch because we want everyone treated equally with high standards and held accountable with war fighting, lethality, and readiness front and center. We don't have time for emphasizing differences. Jesse, one of the dumbest phrases in military history is our diversity is our strengths. Our diversity is not our strength. Our unity and our shared purpose is our strength.
Starting point is 00:38:18 The Pentagon is excited to get back to that core mission. It's happening rapidly. The services are responding, and those that don't want to respond can work somewhere else. So diversity, equity, inclusion will not be a part of the Defense Department, not a minute long. All right. So that's where we are. I mean, think about it, though. I mean, if you're an organization, if you're an organization and you say, all right, we need to follow this DEI prescription.
Starting point is 00:38:42 So we're going to go out and we're going to get everybody with the last name that begins with the letter D. and we're going to say, we're going to hire you and make you into something because your last name begins with the letter D. Well, obviously, you're limiting your pool of the people that would really be talented in the job because you're only looking at the people with the last name that begins with the letter D. And so because it's so important to get these special, special people, all of a sudden, you start overlooking things like deficiencies and maybe, you know, the reality that they're not the best at that particular job. You're probably, you're probably pretending that they're better than they are. You're doing all these things to bump them up within
Starting point is 00:39:22 the organization instead of actually focusing on, wait a second, we just need the best person. Man, woman, black, white, purple, we just need the best person for the job. And that's all we care about. And isn't that truly what you want to be as a society? Isn't that what America is known for? Isn't that why people all over the world from all kinds of different backgrounds want to come here for the American dreams so that they have a shot at achieving something in a society that believes in the power of the individual, believes in the power of creativity and rewards hard work? This DEI stuff is actually the antithesis of all of that. But you can't say it. You just can't say it these days. I mean, the media is going after Donald Trump. How dare you say this? I mean, obviously, yes, we're dealing with the tragedy.
Starting point is 00:40:16 He's looking for answers. He's asking questions, but nope, you can't bring up DEI. Gosh darn it, how dare you? I mean, you can't bring up DEI. By the way, you get CNN blaming them literally last night saying, well, it's because he's been firing all these people, and because he's been firing these people, that's why we have a problem. So this punded over at CNN, he put out this kind of nasty tweet
Starting point is 00:40:39 talking about this effort that's being made to get rid of DEI and how they're, you know, slicing the government down because of it. And he had to almost immediately retract it because, you know, they were still, unfortunately, you know, trying to figure out what was going on. We didn't know how many people were dead. It was just a terrible night, right? Really, really terrible night. And this guy's out there playing the blame game.
Starting point is 00:41:02 And then you get Jim Acosta, who used to be over at CNN until he got fired. Oh, I should say, till he got sort of pushed aside. They offered him the midnight shift. Burning the midnight oil. I didn't want to work that hard, so Jim Acosta left. And now he's doing something else. I guess he's got a newsletter or something. He's reigniting his war with Donald Trump in a desperate effort to try to stay relevant. I'm sorry, Jim, I just don't think that that many people are going to look at your newsletter. But, you know, the reality I should also point out, and the New York Post
Starting point is 00:41:32 had a story on this, is that the actual hiring freeze didn't actually affect a lot of these people. Granted, you do have the FAA saying we didn't have enough people on. Like there was only one guy. Why wasn't there more people? And again, what's going on? How is government that messed up that they don't have the proper number of people that are in charge of where the planes are flying? How could you not?
Starting point is 00:41:57 I mean, that's pretty bad. And then how could you have a pilot who didn't have the ability to sort of respond and act quickly when you see the plane, right? the helicopter should be getting out of the plane's way. So there's a lot of questions that are being asked and that should be asked. But Donald Trump is in trouble, and he's getting mad at the media again. So CNN is blaming him for having said that it was DEI that's responsible for the midair collision. And because he said that, they've started this whole thing.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Chuck Schumer joining in on the X, Senator Schumer today. Watch. Mr. President, this morning, our hearts go out to everyone impacted by the horrible, heartbreaking incident at Reagan, Washington National Airport last night. I've been briefed on the horrific incident at DCA and have continued to monitor the situation. My heart goes out to everyone who is impacted by this incident. I'm praying for the victims, their families, and our brave first responders as we monitor the situation. But I have to tell you, I just watched President Trump's news conference. Listen, it's one thing for internet pundits to spew off conspiracies. It's another for the President of the United States to throw out idle speculation
Starting point is 00:43:24 as bodies are still being recovered and families are still notified. It just turns your stomach. So that's the party line. Got it. Chuck Schumer said it. AOC followed it. I represent LaGuardia Airport as well as workers for JFK. She writes, Trump got it the Aviation Safety Committee last week.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Air traffic controllers already understaffed, got Trump's buyout this week. And within a week, they have an ultimatum to decide. It's not DEI. It's him. It's Elon 2. So this came up at the press conference. and Caitlin Collins, who seems to be making a run for Jim Acosta's job there at CNN, got into it with the president.
Starting point is 00:44:14 You've even yet know the names of the 67 people who were killed, and you are blaming Democrats and DEI policies and air traffic control, and seemingly the member of the U.S. military who was flying that Black Hawk helicopter. Don't you think you're getting ahead of the investigation right now? No, I don't think so at all. I don't think were the names of the people. You mean the names of the people that are on the plane? You think that's going to make a difference?
Starting point is 00:44:37 Does it comfort their families? They are a group of people that have lost their lives. If you want a list of the names, we can give you that. We'll be giving that very soon. We're in coordination with American Airlines. We're in coordination very strongly, obviously, with the military. But I think that's not a very smart question. I'm surprised coming from you.
Starting point is 00:44:57 I'm surprised coming from you. So I think he has a soft spot for her, but that may not last long. That may not last long. Another reporter asking a similar question. On DEI in the claims that you've made, are you saying this crash was somehow caused and the result of diversity hiring? And what evidence have you seen to support these claims?
Starting point is 00:45:19 It just could have been. We have a high standard. We've had a much higher standard than anybody else. And there are things where you have to go by brain power. You have to go by psychological quality. And psychological quality is a very important element of it. These are various, very powerful tests that we put to use, and they were terminated by Biden, and Biden went by a standard that's the exact opposite.
Starting point is 00:45:45 So we don't know, but we do know that you had two planes at the same level. You had an helicopter in a plane. That shouldn't have happened, and we'll see. We're going to look into that and we're going to see. But certainly for an air traffic controller, we want the brightest, the smartest, the sharpest. We want somebody that's psychologically superior. that's what we're going to have. Yeah, please, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:46:11 So he wants the best. What's wrong with wanting the best? Apparently he can't say that right now because this came up yet again as he was signing a bill. They still were going back to this. Mr. President, if you have 64 people lost their lives last night,
Starting point is 00:46:29 if you aren't confident that DEI had any role, why bring it up? Well, all I'm talking about is competence. And we want in that particular position, we have to have the most competent people in our country because we're talking about lives. Now, it may or may not have had to do, but I don't like the fact that the helicopter was at the exact same level as the airplane. The helicopter should have been 1,000 feet or 500 feet above it or something. something below it. The plane was at three to four hundred feet or the plane should have been stopped because the helicopter could have stopped. The plane can't be stopped, but the plane was
Starting point is 00:47:15 on a schedule that was, you know, it was a long track. They call it a track. And it's the same track that every other plane's used for many years. It was going down and landing. And the helicopter got in its way. And if the helicopter was higher or lower or stopped or turning left or turning right at a quicker time. I mean, it turned, but it turned when it was too late. A tragic, a tragic story. So, I don't know, do you blame it on the air traffic controller, too, in addition to the pilots? Maybe the pilot's fault. They should have seen it. I would have thought they should have seen it. Because it was a plane that was loaded up with lights and everybody, you can see it from Kennedy Center. You can see it very easily. So all I want is the most competent people in
Starting point is 00:48:01 our country to be air traffic controllers. It's a very important position. And other positions, too, by the way. We're not only talking about that. We're talking, but air traffic controllers may be in particular. They have to be brilliant with computers, brilliant with graphics. They have to be psychologically really, really smart. And, you know, there are a lot of people that wouldn't be able to do that. Really sad stuff. But he says he wants the best. He wants only the best people. And, you know, maybe in determining who's the best, you should be focused on the qualities and the tests, right, that would make them the best as opposed to other things that might be
Starting point is 00:48:42 serving as kind of a distraction. I don't think it's that controversial to say that, but clearly, other people really, really do. I want to get to Tulsi Gabbard because she had her hearing today, and we have a lot to talk about there. Before I do, just wanted to give a quick shout out to our friends at Grand... forgive me, at Herzog Foundation, because this is a foundation we can talk about Grand Canyon University, too, because they do wonderful, wonderful things there. But I did want to flag that this year I developed a partnership with the Herzog Foundation,
Starting point is 00:49:16 which I'm really, really proud of because, you know, there's so much DEI that's been taught in our schools that's really crazy. I mean, and I agree with the president's wholeheartedly on this, that we need to get back to our core values and be that. meritocracy. And what we're seeing in the public school system really doesn't embrace that. If anything, it's all about the diversity, equity, and inclusion. And it's a direct contradiction, if you would, was sort of our American value system. And so I think a lot of people, especially Christians in this country, feel like they are very much at odds with the ideologue that's coming
Starting point is 00:49:50 out of these schools. And so for that reason, I just wanted to mention this to you guys, if you have children, or if you have grandchildren, or if you have friends that have children, and you're looking for a school, and you're thinking about perhaps a Christian school. I myself went to a Catholic school when I was a little kid. It was great. I mean, it really, really was. It was a firm foundation, and I have just really fond memories of it. It's something that you should take a look at.
Starting point is 00:50:15 It really is, and the folks over at Herzog can help you do this. It's called Herzog Foundation.com. They have all kinds of information. I mean, they're really a trusted source, if you would, on American education, K through 12. they can guide you through it. They've, again, just wealth of resources. They've an online publication. They've got The Lion, their new podcast.
Starting point is 00:50:34 They've got Making the Leap, the New Podcast. And it's basically just all of this advice and information for Christian parents who are looking to make this switch. And so take a look. Take a look. I'm very, very proud of this partnership. I mean, you want to think about how your family can really flourish with its faith and its community.
Starting point is 00:50:51 And school's a big part of that. So in light of all the DEI stuff, we're talking about. I thought it was worth mention. this, Herzog Foundation.com. I'll try and put that in the show notes so that you can see it. Herzog, H-E-R-Z-O-G, Foundation.com. Tulsi Gabbard in the hot seat, but you know what, she can handle it. This woman is tough. And again, she's bad news for Letitia and anybody else who was doing some funny stuff. I'm thinking Hillary Clinton, who, by the way, I want you to think she's a Russian spy. I mean, this woman's been put through H-E-D-L-L and back as well. Here she is.
Starting point is 00:51:26 today on the weaponization of the FBI, the CIA, our intelligence community against so many individuals, primarily President Trump, but also her. American people elected Donald Trump as their president not once but twice. And yet the FBI and intelligence agencies were politicized by his opponents to undermine his presidency and falsely portray him as a puppet of Putin. Title I of FISA was used illegally to obtain a warrant to spy on Trump campaign advisor, Carter page, using a Clinton campaign-funded false dossier as their so-called evidence. Biden campaign advisor, Tony Blinken, was the impetus for the 51 former senior intelligence
Starting point is 00:52:09 officials letter dismissing Hunter Biden's laptop as disinformation specifically to help Biden win the election. Former DNI, James Clapper, lied to this committee in 2013, denying the existence of programs that facilitated the mass collection of millions of Americans. phone and internet records, yet was never held accountable. Under John Brennan's leadership, the CIA abused its power to spy on Congress, to dodge oversight, lied about doing it until he was caught, and yet has never been held responsible. Under Biden, the FBI abused its power for political reasons to try to surveil Catholics who attend traditional Latin Mass,
Starting point is 00:52:50 labeling them as quote-unquote radical traditionalist Catholics. Personally, just 24 hours after I criticized Kamala Harris and her nomination, I was placed on a secret domestic terror watch list called Quiet Skies. Sadly, there are more examples. The bottom line is this. This must end. Yeah, it's got to end. But they're terrified of her.
Starting point is 00:53:16 For some reason, she is a trigger point for them. I mean, hey, she used to be on their team, right? She was a Democrat. And now all of a sudden, she's crossed to the other side, and she dares to come out swinging as she should against the 51 ex-spooks. Think about that. Who literally lied to you? And caused, by the way, so much chaos.
Starting point is 00:53:36 I mean, you could not say, guys, like, I told you I went through this. I mean, over on Meadow, which just settled for $25 million. That's like a dinner right from Mark Zuckerberg. They just settled. They gave Donald Trump 22 to put towards his library and another three to pay his legal bills. So that's a $25 million cost, a hit for them. But think of what it costs Donald Trump to not have access to all of his people on Facebook. I mean, again, I went through this because I dared to share a story about Hunter Biden.
Starting point is 00:54:10 And then it was game over. You're in jail for a whole year. Like, I couldn't see you guys. But the good news is I came over here to YouTube, which is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. And it's been great. And we've been able to make sure you subscribe if you haven't, by the way. It's really important because I want to make sure that we do have this constant connection. And it's really scary.
Starting point is 00:54:30 What went down? You could not share information. And they blocked it all, literally blocked it all. So I had a couple hundred thousand people over there on Facebook. I couldn't actually access them. But the president went through this. And it was because, oh, I shared a story about Hunter Biden's laptop. Well, Biden was president then.
Starting point is 00:54:51 So like it didn't actually affect the outcome of the election. But you see, he was president then. And as soon as he was president, he put in a whole bunch of things. In fact, his biggest regret is that he didn't do more to control, quote-unquote, misinformation. Guess what? Does not misinformation?
Starting point is 00:55:05 That Hunter buttoned laptop belonged to Hunter. You just tried to tell us it was, you know, Russian misinformation, disinformation, fed to all of us courtesy of one Rudy Giuliani. That's the narrative that they spun and that they put together and that they should be ashamed of and someone should be going after them and heads should roll, and you know what, this should never, ever happen again.
Starting point is 00:55:25 One of the things that I liked, as hard as it is, in light of what has happened there at Reagan National, I mean, gosh, at least you had the administration coming out and asking the right question, demanding answers. You had Duffy on the scene immediately. This is a whole different ballgame, right? This is a team that actually is willing to tell you the truth, and that goes a long way, because if you can't trust your government to tell you the truth, then what kind of government do you have? Our belief in our institutions has been rattled.
Starting point is 00:55:58 And that's why Trump is changing things. He's firing all the people that were involved in the Jack Smith case. He's getting rid of DEI. He's making big changes. Tulsi, I'll tell you it's going to be harder for her. I think she's great. And I've said to some people, oh, well, you know, she's possibly, she's a risk. And I'm like, what do you got on her?
Starting point is 00:56:21 Like, the woman, like, is actually pretty darn incredible. Like, what exactly do you have on her? Well, you know, she wasn't with us on this, that, and the other. And I'm like, well, we haven't always been right. What makes you think that we're all, you can't have some diversity of opinion? You people who are all into diversity suddenly don't want the diversity of an opinion of somebody maybe who disagrees with you. Maybe it's valuable to have more people at the table with more perspectives.
Starting point is 00:56:51 I mean, they tell you they're into diversity. They're not really into diversity of thought. No, you've got to think just like them. Just physical diversity. That's all they care about. I'll tell you, I got no use for any of it, any of it. I do have use for my balance in nature. Fruits and gummies, though.
Starting point is 00:57:06 I have three kids homesick from school today. I do. I'm like, guys, you know what, I got to start feeding them balance in nature. Fruits and veggies, because again, knock on wood. So far, so good for Trish Regan this winter. again, you know, we're just going into February, so we'll see. But I credit fruits and veggies. There's

They're in Polly Market. I think they get impegged around 75% chance at confirmation, but woo, Bernie Sanders sure doesn't want the guy having the gig to just see this. I got to play it for
Starting point is 00:58:18 because this was some real fireworks there on display there on Capitol Hill. I'm going to make America healthier than other countries in the world right now. Will you guarantee do what every other major country does? It's a simple question. And by the way, Bernie, the problem of corruption is not just in the federal agency. It's in Congress, too. Almost all the members of this panel are accepting, including yourself, are accepting millions of dollars from the pharmaceutical industry.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Oh, no, no, no, no, no. And protecting their interests. Oh, I thought that that would come. No, but I ran for president like you. I got millions and millions of contributions. They did not come from the executives, not one nickel of pack money from the pharmaceutical industry. They came to workers.
Starting point is 00:59:09 In 2020, in 2020, you were the single largest because I had a full contribution money. from workers all over this country. Workers, not a nickel from corporate tax. Bernie was a single largest except for pharmaceutical dollars. No, from workers in the industry. 1.5 million.
Starting point is 00:59:30 Yeah, out of 200 million. All right, but you have not answered. Last question. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But, maybe you got me there. Maybe I took some money. Oh, and then there was this little dust up, you see, with Elizabeth.
Starting point is 00:59:46 Warren. Like, it just didn't stop with Bernie. You had to have the whole socialist brigade, I guess, against him. Elizabeth Warren versus, forgive me, not Bernie. RFK. This is something, guys. So, Mr. Kennedy, will you also agree that you won't take any compensation from any lawsuits
Starting point is 01:00:06 against drug companies while you are secretary and for four years afterwards? Well, I'll certainly commit that while I'm secretary. I do want to clarify something because you're making me
Starting point is 01:00:22 sound like a shill. I put together that case. I did the Science Day presentation of the judge on that case to get it into court the doubt for the hearing. Mr. Kennedy, it's just a really simple question.
Starting point is 01:00:38 You've taken in two and a half million dollars. I want to know if you will commit right now that not only will you not go to work for drug company, You won't go to work, suing the drug companies and taking your rake out of that while you're a secretary and for four years after. I'll commit it to not take any fees from drug companies while I'm secretary. I'm asking about fees from suing drug companies. Will you agree not to do that?
Starting point is 01:01:08 You're asking me to not sue drug companies. No, you can sue drug companies as much as you want. I'm not going to agree to not sue drug companies or anybody. So let's do a quick count here of how as Secretary of HHS, if you get confirmed, you could influence every one of those lawsuits. Well, let me start the list. You can publish your anti-vaccine conspiracies, but this time on U.S. government letterhead, something a jury might be impressed by.
Starting point is 01:01:42 You could appoint a people to this VC vaccine panel. who share your anti-vax views and let them do your dirty work. You could tell the CDC vaccine panel to remove a particular vaccine from the vaccine schedule. You could remove vaccines from special compensation programs, which would open up manufacturers to mass torts. You could make more injuries eligible for compensation, even if there is no causal evidence. You could change vaccine court processes to make it easier to bring junk lawsuits. You could turn over FDA data to your friends at the law firm, and they could use it however it benefited them. You could change vaccine labeling.
Starting point is 01:02:22 You could change vaccine information. I'm just going to say, I think she's figured this all up because I think it's going through her head. Let's take a little look here. Nancy Mace, she put this one out. Speaking of Schill, Senator Warren, ranked in over $5.2 million from Big Pharma and the Medical Industrial Complex. Wow. Okay. And then she brought receipts. Let me show you the receipts. This is great, you guys,
Starting point is 01:02:46 because I'm telling you, Elizabeth Warren just kind of, ugh. Me and Elizabeth Warren, not so much. Me and Bernie Sanders, uh, not so much. Anyway, look at this. Hospitals and nursing home. She got $1.6 million. Miscellaneous health, $600, is that right? $644,49. Pharmaceuticals health products, $600,000, $25,580. This is all according to. to open secrets like it's all there. You know, you ought to be careful, a little more careful. Okay, here we get another one. Top Industries, federal election data for Elizabeth Warren 2020 cycle. She got, dun-t-na, from health professionals, $2.366 million. I mean, this is a lot of money, okay? She sits there and says, well, I want to, you know, unbelievable. So this was kind of a circus act,
Starting point is 01:03:40 but they're threatened by him because you know what he's threatening he's threatening transparency something we kind of need my approach to administration hHS will be radical transparency if members of this committee or other members of congress want information the doors are open I've spent radical transparency part of what we've been seeing right but they don't want that no no I mean I'll tell you there's there's stuff going on. There's stuff going on that shouldn't be going on. I mean, here we are trying to make America great again, trying to make America healthy again. We're excited about all these big changes. There's so much that can be done. But you look at those numbers, right? You look at how much money,
Starting point is 01:04:23 the pharmaceutical, the drug industry, the health industry is giving to all these politicians, and it means that we are vulnerable. I want to tell you about something, and I want you to go to this website because Big Pharma is setting the prices of drugs. I mean, this is part of what he's trying to get at. We can't have this anymore. Already this year, they've raised the price on more than 575 drugs. They've got all kinds of anti-competition practices. They're blocking any kind of competition that you could see so that they can keep their prices artificially high on all these drugs.
Starting point is 01:04:54 And they spend billions of dollars on stupid ads. I mean, you want to talk stupid ads. I can't even watch the news with my family anymore, for goodness sakes, because of their dumb, I won't say it, ads. All right? They got really dumb ads. So billions of dollars marketing these high price, brand name drugs that are super, you know, they're like regulating the price on this stuff.
Starting point is 01:05:18 So you need competition, right? That's what we need. That's what we're about in America, meritocracy and competition. And now they're out there urging Congress to undermine the incentives, if you would, in the private health care market that help American workers and the help American families get more money for savings on prescription drugs. So there's a group called conservative for lower healthcare costs, and they're out there and they're warning this. And I think this is important. So I want to tell you about it, especially in light of
Starting point is 01:05:47 RFK, they're warning that big farmer is no friend to the Trump agenda or to the pocketbooks of the American people. Now, I don't think that's like, that shouldn't stun you. Like, I don't think that's a news bulletin, but you should at least know where they're coming from, right? So they oppose solutions to lower drug prices in President Trump's first time. And what are they doing now? I mean, they're definitely not even, they don't want this guy through. They get Bernie and Liz Warren in their back pocket, trying to do everything they can to derail this. So you can learn more.
Starting point is 01:06:20 I mean, I think it's important, like if you can let your congress member know that they need to be on the right side of the American people for this. Go check this out at pharmawindfall.com. Pharmawindfall.com. You can go check that out today and learn more information. But, you know, let's keep our fingers crossed for our. because I think like this could be amazing. I told you guys, I was just overseas and in Europe, they actually don't allow all these crazy things into the food. I'm like, why does everything taste so good? It's like everything is good no matter where you go. You can't have a bad
Starting point is 01:06:53 item of food anywhere and it's because they don't have all the preservatives that we have here, right? They're much tougher on that stuff. So anyway, check it out. Pharmawindfall.com today. Meanwhile, Quick note on the crypto front, did you see yesterday? Federal Reserve actually coming out and saying, yeah, banks can own crypto. Don't tell Liz Warren that. Oh, she's just going to really get mad. So everything's changing. Cryptos at banks. It's kind of incredible. I know that a lot of you all don't like it, but I've been a big fan of this for some time. I mean, going back to the days when Bitcoin was trading at 10. I've been kind of into it. So we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, write about it quite a bit over at 76 research. 76 research and get the 76 report, just a dollar
Starting point is 01:07:43 a month, learn a little bit about crypto, learn about what's going on in the macro environment, learn about a couple of stocks that we like. If you really like stocks, guess what? You should get the model portfolios. We have three of them, and you get 10 to 15 names, and we tell you exactly what we're investing, how we're investing, all that kind of intel for you. That's easy to understand, easy to digest. And so I encourage you to do that. But if you just want to get started and learn a few things. Guess what? 76 research, Code Word Dollar. It's my company that I started with Rob Horton, very dear friend from a very long time, who, by the way, shares our views, shall we say? It's important to know where people are coming from.

But I'm here every day live, and I'm going to keep doing it because it's an exciting time. And there's going to be a lot of change. And this is going to have consequences that I believe are going to be significant and tremendous. I am so optimistic. I don't think I've ever been this optimistic. Lots of good stuff ahead. Cosh is getting in. Fingers crossed on Tulsi. I think R.K is going to get it too. We have change on the way. I'll see you tomorrow.
