Okay, so here we are. I will not fear Donald Trump. I have steel in my backbone. And the reality is I will not allow this person, Donald Trump, who unfortunately is a broken man, to get in the way of progress and to separate. Wow. Okay. Lots breaking at this hour. Thank you for all of you who have been tuning in and so patiently waiting.

This is really remarkable. Everything that's happening. This is, it's history in the making. We're on the front lines of this. and get ready, buckle up. This is why, this is why, if you had any doubt as to why Donald Trump wanted Matt Gates in the seat, this is about why you need it, ladies and gentlemen. Okay, for sure.

Okay, wow. Okay, Judge Mershon. Kind of punting, sort of, but not really. Didn't know what to do. I mean, the guy's completely panicked, completely panicked. And so he puts the ball back into Bragg's court, bag print, brag. bag, brag, whatever the guy's name is, Alvin, he's panicking as well. And now I'm going to just tell you this.

I'll tell you this right now. Leticia James, Alvin Bragg, and Fannie Willis ought to be damn careful. Because you heard what Mike Davis said the other day, hey, sweetheart, we'll put your fat right into prison. That could come to fruition because this is setting up a very nasty battle that I I predict right here, right now, the federal government, Donald Trump, and the Supreme Court will win. Welcome to the program, everyone. I'm Trish Regan's Trish Regan show.

Reminder, you've got Christmas coming up. You can get all your merch, as the kids say, at the Trishrigan. Dot shop. Trishrigan.com and help support the show, all that good stuff right over there. But this is just tremendous. I mean, I'm watching this going, you've got to be kidding me. These people, unbelievable stuff. So moments ago, we learned that Judge Mershon decided he would.

he'd hold off, if you would, right? He'd sort of wait, wait and see. He'd call that sentencing off for the now, newly president-elect Donald Trump. So this is in that so-called hush money case, which the whole thing is just absolutely positively ridiculous. It never should have been brought in the first place. Alvin Bragg knew it. He didn't want to do it.

But guess why? He had to run for office, and there was all this pressure among some voters in Manhattan that wanted him to do this. And don't forget, he's running again. So this is like survival. Letitia James, what is she going to do without Donald Trump? Alvin Brack, what does he do without Donald Trump? Judge Mershon, what is your daughter going to do without Donald Trump

from which she can raise money off of in all these email campaigns every time there's a new wrinkle in your case? Unbelievable. Well, this just crossed, as I said, Judge Juan Mershont, he adjourned the New York case there without actually delivering a sentence. So on the one hand, you're like, okay, woo-hoo, that's great. And it is. It is great that there was no sentence, obviously.

that would have been really kind of a bad spot to be in. But what he did in doing so was he put this back onto Alvin Bragg. And Alvin Bragg, who's the attorney in this case, the DA out of Manhattan, well, he's been seeking some kind of penalty for Donald Trump all along. Don't forget last summer what he had to say. Do you plan to request a prison sentence that Donald Trump's multiple violations of the God order that was in place to factor in to not request it all? The judge scheduled a sentencing for July 11th.

We will speak in court in that time. He also said a motion schedule. We will speak in our court filings as we've done throughout this proceeding. Yeah, and then it didn't happen. It didn't happen. And so now we're looking at a situation where this guy, Judge Mershon, is trying to save face. And he's trying to say, well, we can punt and wait four years. We'll sentence Donald Trump after the fact.

I mean, are these people nuts? I think they might actually just be. nuts. I think they really are. And I think they have no respect nor appreciation, really, for the rule of law, or the break between federal and state power. And so this is what you're getting in this moment. So he adjourns the thing. He turns it over to Alvin Bragg, who gets, you know, sort of next say on it. And Alvin Bragg, who's worried about his own political hide, is saying, well, I've got to run again, right? Where am I going to get my campaign money? I've got to have this thing live another day. And so now he's saying, okay, well, we'll wait in 2029 to deal with

this. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Here's the deal, guys. You throw it out. Okay, you throw it out. That's the right thing to do. Alina Haba making this point the other day on Fox. It's time to wrap this case up. Throw it out. If this judge wants any credibility back, that's what he should do. There should have been a directed verdict. There should have been a mis-trial. Yeah. Exactly. I mean, it shouldn't. be that hard. You didn't have the ability to go after him on the election stuff anyway. Moreover, once you get the Supreme Court involved, the Supreme Court said, you know what, he's protected, well, then he's protected. So what are we doing? Why are you having this thing

hang around? Because, oh, this is your get-out-of-jail-free card somehow, except that it won't be. It really won't be because now Alvin Bragg, Fannie Willis, Letitia James, you guys are in so much more trouble. Now the whole Matt Gate things. Matt Gates thing really does make sense. I'm going to get to Letitia in just a second, but first to shout out for one of our great sponsors here on the Trish Regan show. You know, if you're uncomfortable with the way things are going, maybe gold makes a logical investment in that environment. I encourage you right now to go over and check out my friends in American Heart for Gold. Go to Trish lovesgold.com. You can get up to $15,000 in free silver. Again, Trish lovesgold.com. You can text my name, Trish, to 65532, or call.

call them at 1844-495-1-1-1-5. Everything that's so crazy right now, hey, maybe you want some kind of protection against this Armageddon. I hate to say it that way, but you can get up to $15,000 in free silver. Listen, there's a lot of different reasons I like gold and we can get into some of those. I do talk about them actually in the Invest in MAGA guide that I just put out with my colleague at 76 Research, invest in MAGA.com. It's a free guide for how you invest. Gold is one the things that we look at in there, but there's plenty of other ways, and there's a lot of really, really strong, really good ways to be investing right now. So think about that. Leticia James, Latisha James, you might want to think about your future lady. Latisha James, increasingly

looking like she's going to have some. I will not fear Donald Trump. I have steel in my backbone. And the reality is I will not allow this person, Donald Trump, who unfortunately is a broken man, to get in the way of progress and to separate. Well, Letitia, I actually think you are a broken woman who has nothing but vengeance on your mind and career on your mind. And Leticia James, let me just kind of make something really clear. It's extremely important right now to the country

that someone like you get her legs cut out from under. The reason being, you are a threat to the system, you are a threat to the economy, you are a threat to the very foundation of capitalism that exists in the United States of America because you somehow thought you could come along, lady, and you thought that you could decide that you knew the valuation on various properties, you know, great real estate expert that you are. And in deciding these valuations, you would somehow be able to then go after Donald Trump because you didn't think it was worth as much as he and Deutsche Bank thought

Mar-Lago was worth. I mean, you've got to be kidding me. This woman is so far out over her skis. This is what's scary. I mean, this is what's scary. I'm going to let Trump say it. We're going to go back to Letitia because this is what needs to get dealt with. This is not vengeance.

This is not retribution. This is cleaning up the system for every single American so that they're not confronted with the likes of a rabid, Lettisha James in the future. Here's Trump talking on it this summer. I'm going to take you to lower Manhattan

and former President Trump. Are you a victim of extortion? The country is on fire. There are protests all over the country. I've never seen anything like this. Many graduations are monies of being canceled. They canceled, as you know, in Colombia that cancelling a lot of them. And we have a president that just refuses to talk, because you can't talk.

You know that. And it's as everyone else. Some of the statements made about this witch hunt on CNN, fake news CNN, Michael Moore said the proof of falsifying record. has not been accomplished. On Good Morning America, they said, we heard that expense payments to lawyers are legal expenses. You pay a lawyer expense payments.

We didn't put it down as construction costs, the purchase of sheeprock, the electrical cost. The legal expense that we paid was put down as legal expense. There's nothing else you could say. You don't have to put down anything. I guess, but we put down legal expense was legal expense.

Is that a very much? Mr. Attorney? And everyone's saying, oh, gee, that's the fraud. That's what they're trying to get us on. The fact that we call it a legal expense, a legal expense, they marked it down in the books. And forgive me, I was referring to a different case when we first went to that sound, but nonetheless, really, really important to hear

because that's referring to the case that we're talking about right now in the here and now. Donald Trump's saying this doesn't really make any sense. I didn't do anything illegal in terms of my funding, and in terms of my campaign, I had a personal expense, and then I had some legal expenses. And one would think that the Supreme Court, by the way, which has ruled on this already, would say, you know what, you're covered. You're covered in both cases. One, it was personal.

Two, then when the campaign had to get involved, then you were then, you know, going on to become president, et cetera. There's forgiveness there. And yet, you know, this is a situation where, again, we're looking at today. they're just going to try and like dangle this over his head. I don't think that's going to work. I think that you're going to see his team come back and appeal again, and this will eventually get tossed out altogether. It will be a major win.

In the meantime, you're going to look at more and more problems for the likes of Leticia James. Leticia James, who's just so hellbent on going after this president because she doesn't, frankly, have a career without it. This is a state case. last week he perfected his appeal and we are confident that in the state of new york that we will recover over 450 million dollars for the residents of the great state of new york he's engaged in name calling but unfortunately the reality is is that i will not dignify his comments and two i will not amplify his racism and or sexism we've got to focus on issues

americans are struggling right now inflation has gone down again under the leadership of president Biden. Right now, we are experienced one of the lowest unemployment rates in. Oh my God. She's like a spokesperson for Kamala and Biden. History. And it's really critically important that the number of illegal border crossings has come to one of the lowest points again because of pathways that President Biden and Vice President Harris have come. I'm sorry, but this lady, one of the funny things about her is that it just encapsulates, if you would, how bad. their entire campaign and their entire argument was because on the one hand, they're, oh, we need to focus on important things. Well, you're the team that's supposed to be in charge and focusing on

those important things, things like inflation. Oh, inflation's coming down. She says, well, simultaneously saying it's out of control. I mean, that is just classic. That is classic. So that's Leticia James this summer over on MSNBC trying to say, you know what, I'm strong, I'm strong. He's not going to be able to bring me down. No, no, no. I got like iron in my I will not fear Donald Trump. I have steel in my backbone. And the reality is I will not allow this person, Donald Trump, who unfortunately is a broken man to get in the way of progress.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so Letitia, honey, I think you're going to have some problems. I'm just saying, because you are so far out over your skis. I mean, it's one thing in the Alvin Bragg thing, which never should have been brought. That thing will eventually get thrown out. But here we are still with Leticia James out there. We're waiting on that appeal. That appeal, I believe very strongly, the Court of Appeals is going to say this case is D-O-A.

I mean, you know, you know, we've seen the judges, we've seen the judges. I've showed you this before, but you saw it, like, the minute she approached the bench, they shut her down. They shut her down immediately because you know what? She has no case. There's no victim. There's no victim other than maybe society because, oh my gosh, Donald Trump is in charge. Leticia, the American people just.

picked Donald Trump like overwhelmingly. He won the popular vote. In 2016, he didn't. Now he did. So get over it. Okay, she can't, you guys, because like Alvin Bragg and Judge Mershon, in the first case with the hush money nonsense, this lady doesn't exist without Donald Trump. So as you can see, we know their playbook. We know Project 2025 before it was even published. and we have been working both in my office and 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.

Okay, ready, willing and able, right? Because she's all geared up for a fight. Except you're picking some weird fights. You're picking fights that don't have any legal ground on which to sand. And so, lady, it's over. He won. Judge Mershon.

Elvenberg, it's over. He won. And this is exactly why you want someone. Like, you know, I mean, the appointment caught me by surprise. And I don't know if Gates will eventually get it because, you know, there's baggage there, et cetera. I've got to be very forthcoming on that. We need a really strong lawyer, a really strong attack dog in there as AG. Gosh, you know, Mike Davis is looking better and better.

Did you see him on Benny's show? If you haven't, priceless, priceless. And if you've seen it, humor me. because I could watch this thing all day long. Let me just say this to Big Tish James, the New York Attorney General. I dare you. I dare you to try to continue your lawfare against President Trump in his second term. Because listen here, sweetheart, we're not messing around this time.

And we will put your fat ass in prison for conspiracy against rights. And I promise you that. So think long and hard before you want to violate President Trump's constitution. rights or any other Americans constitutional rights, it's not going to happen again. It's not. It's not going to happen again, all right? He won. Americans overwhelmingly chose him. You tried to come up with everything. For goodness sakes at least Jack Smith went home. Jack Smith went home. His entire team went home. You know who else is going to have to go home? Not just Leticia James and Alvin Bragg, but won Fanny Willis. Fanny Willis is going to be sent packing

because you see in her particular case, she was way out over her skis having a little thing that she shouldn't have had with the guy that she was employing. Uh-huh. Are you aware that Fulton County requires you to disclose any relationship or someone that you're doing business with? I'm not aware, and I know often that things are confused

with state constitutional officers in county, but I'm not aware. You're not aware, so that's not a... An excuse. As a result of her indiscretion, shall we call it, which all came out because the guy's in the middle of a divorce and, you know, his scorned ex-wife comes forward with all the documentation, the cell phone records and this, that, and the other,

it turns out Fannie and Wade were having a little thing majig on the side, which actually would be in violation of everything, which would mean her entire team would have to be dissolved, which means they'd have to go out and get a new one. So while that case is going on, everything stalled down there in Georgia. But let me remind you, someone won this and they won it big. And so in this particular case, I'm pretty darn sure that you know what, the federal government triumphs over everything. This is why Jack Smith was sent packing.

This is why he went home. This is why Americans, by the way, have gotten so sick of it all, right? Nobody wants to deal with any of this. I mean, the cleanup that has to happen right now in the federal government and at the state level is pretty massive. I would just say that this is perhaps why Donald Trump wanted Matt Gates in there, because he knew that this was going to be one nasty, ugly job. Now, on the one hand, it's not nice to have retribution. And he's actually not really about retribution.

Howie Kurtz asked him this a few weeks ago on his father. show and he said, look, I don't want retribution. That's what they did against me. And I asked him, specifically myself, when he was in office, why he didn't go after Hillary Clinton. And again, he made the point that that's not really who we are. That's not what we want to be. We're not a Latin American dictatorship, et cetera. But in this particular case, guys, in this particular case, as we look at it, what about making sure, ensuring that we are safe for the future, okay? Because this doesn't need about, be about vengeance for Donald Trump, but actually about making sure that they don't do this kind of stuff in the future. I mean, how can you have an AG that is so out of control in the

state of New York, for example, Letitia James, that she could be out there doing what she's doing. I mean, this is something that the judges talked about when they listened to her case. The appeals court, the court of appeals is like, whoa, why does she have this much power? Like, how is this actually happening because this is actually sort of scary. And what we need is to protect against this in the future. We don't need rabid prosecutors trying to destroy political opponents. That's not what the United States of America does. Absolutely not. And so this issue came up on Fox. Trey Gowdy was responding, and clearly he did not hear the question. We're going to give him the bad for the doubt and say, okay, Trey, it didn't hear the question. I want to hear what Bill Hammer said to him,

and how Trey responds, because it's not the right response. This is not about vindication. This is not about, okay, I'm going to put you in the slammer because you were trying to do the same thing to me. This is about making sure that whoever's in power doesn't get drunk with power, for goodness sakes, like the left did, trying to slam every single lawsuit against an opponent. Trey, what do you think about during this campaign,

Trump kept talking about lawfare, and a lot of his allies did as well. And you've watched his various court cases. And I don't know how you felt about the documents case in Florida or the Jack Smith thing in Washington, D.C. coming after January 6th. But when you look at all of them and think that there's a possibility they could all be now dissolved, 0 for 4. I mean, you're a man of the law. That's your profession.

And what do you think of how this went? Do not use the justice system as a weapon. And the message for Republicans is don't do it on the other side either with this absurd AG pick that you just made. Justice is different. It is a combination of policy, law, and also morality. You do not use our justice system as a political weapon. Voters rejected it in November, and they're going to reject it if Republicans try to do it also. Some things rise above the den.

The justice system is one of those things. Okay. Trey Gowdy, it's always good to see you. There's going to be a lot. So he's not wrong in that. But what has happened to our Justice Department when this kind of chaos can actually go on when you can bring four different state lawsuits like this

that don't have any kind of merit and they keep getting turned down at every corner? Or, for example, the federal cases, two of them, two federal cases against Donald Trump and those two were getting turned down at every corner. I mean, wow, I mean, let me just say like he's pretty squeaky clean because, you know, they're digging up anything they can get and they still can't get anything to stick. When you're using the law against an opponent like that, I actually think it kind of corrupts and perverts the law itself. So that's what we need to actually get back to.

Donald Trump's team, considering this very much a win, what has just happened, ladies and gentlemen, Alvin Bragg is reserving the right to come forward with this case. in 2029, but the judge in that case, Judge Mershon has said that they're going to adjourn. They're going to adjourn and the prosecutor is making the decision that he wants to come back in 29. I guess he wants to have a reason for still having a career. Anyway, let's go over to what the Trump team is saying in reaction. Reelected President Trump with an overwhelming mandate to make America great again. It is now abundantly clear that Americans want an immediate end to the weaponization of our justice system, including this case, which should never have been filed so we can, as President Trump said,

in his historic victory speech, unify our country and work together for the betterment of our nation. Fox's contributor and law professor at George Washington University, John Turley. Jonathan, we were talking last hour, and now a little bit more time has passed. Any fresh thoughts on November 19th than what we could see? Well, the Trump administration, I think, could take some solid. us that they'll have a chance now to argue that the case should be dismissed. But I don't think expectations can be particularly high given this judge's track record. He has not shown any great balance at the trial.

I was surprised in watching the trial to see some of his rulings, which frankly didn't make a lot of sense to me. I thought that he had left layers of reversible error. But none of that can be reviewed until this is finalized. Now, some have suggested that the judge could just freeze this for the upcoming term, to leave it in pendency. I just don't see that type of suspension as a likely or good option. You would have the president's critics saying that he's awaiting sentencing after a jury found him guilty of felonies. They need to have a status where they can appeal this case, including the decisions made by this judge. Now, it is possible in a week that he could yield to calls for dismissal.

You know, many have, including myself, felt that this case should never have been brought, that the judge made an unholy mess of it. In my view, it would be good to send the attractions back to their cages and call this circus over. But I wouldn't necessarily bet the farm on that. Wow. So, again, just if you're joining us right now, some breaking news, the judge has called the sentencing off and Alvin Bragg has now come forward requesting the Manhattan DA that that sentencing happened in 29.

Woohoo! Like crazy town, okay? Crazy town. And this is why you need a desperate cleanup of this because otherwise this really does threaten the entire, why would anybody want to go into Baltics for goodness sakes? I mean, you know what? He's kind of a glutton for punishment. He loves this country enough, and he's so determined as an individual.

Just, you know, he's got the fight in him. Remember, fight, fight. I mean, he's got it more than anyone, so he's willing to put up with this stuff. But most people wouldn't, okay? And that's a shame. It's a shame because we need to be better as a nation. We need to be more fair as a nation. You can't just go after political opponents.

It happens way too much. If it happens once, it's way too much. So shame on this judge, shame on Alvin Bragg, shame on Latisha James and Fannie Willis and her BF, whatever that she's got down there and Jack Smith and the rest of them. We need this fixed. He won. Americans told you, we need it fixed. We got so much more to get to because you get some grifters over at MSNBC, proven how much of the grifter mentality they really have. But first, another shout-out to one of our great sponsors, and that would be balance in nature. I take my first, and veggies every single day, every single day, which is really important. This time of years, we're going into the holidays, and everything's crazy, and everything's busy, and there's not as much sunlight, and I don't get enough as it is living in the Northeast. So balance and nature.com

is where I get my vitamins. I make sure I take my fruits and veggies, both are gummies every single day. You know, we're talking about health a lot lately, right, with RFK Jr. and HSS, this stuff is good. There's no gluten, there's no junk in it. You can be assured of that. So I encourage you to go over, Take a look at balance in nature. They have the best deal. The best deal that I think I've ever been able to present to you. So that's nice at your end. 50% off. 50% off with my name, Code Word Trish. 1-800-24-6-8-75-1. 1-800-24-6-8-75-1. And don't forget your help in the show, you're helping yourself. So win, win, win. But these folks, I mean, it's just sort of unbelievable. And I know, I think people are saying, thank goodness, thank goodness, Donald Trump, one. I mean, when you look at what's going on internationally, the insanity there, you know, just horrible stuff with the conflict heating up between Ukraine and Russia and Biden seemingly lost in the Amazon. You know, there was that picture, that photo op opportunity that they had just the other day. Did you see this, guys? If not, it's worth a little look-sy because

Biden really seems lost, dazed, and confused. And you know what's crazy? No one even, seems to care. I mean, that's what's wild about it. No one seems to care that the leader of the free world is not making it into the big photo op there for G20. Here we go. If you're just joining us, we're looking at the G20 photo op. And you see Modi there. You see everybody, okay? Like, everyone's there. And somehow Biden is off, lost in the Amazon. They're saying, wait for Biden. Okay, Biden's not here yet. We've got to wait for him. So do they?

Guess what? Nope, let's fast forward. They don't. They had their picture taken and they completely walk off. No, Biden. Doesn't that tell you exactly where we are in the world? Kind of sad. Kind of sad indeed.

But you know what? You get what you pay for, so to speak. And on this one, America has gotten exactly what it probably bought and paid for. Speaking of being bought and paid for, you know, over at MSNBC, they're suffering with declining ratings, like the worst they've ever seen. Same thing at CNN, actually, but at MSNBC, they're down like 51% from the day the election happened. I want you to see a before and after with Joan Mika, because this is their signature morning

show over on MSNBC, hosted by Joe Scarborough and his wife. Yeah, his wife. She wasn't his wife, but apparently they had a little thingy too. I mean, it's all like, you know, you hate Trump and all of a sudden, romance in the air. So Joan Mika went down to Marlago to try to grovel, shall we say, with the president, to president-elect, and say, oh, we didn't really mean all that bad stuff that we said, even though we said a lot of bad stuff. And I was going to say, you know what, these people are about the bottom line and the

caching, like they're no different than Megan Thee Stallion. Megan Thee Stallion was for sale, Joan Mika. are for sale, a case in point. Take a look at this. And then he says that the news network that... This is incidentally, just a few weeks before the election, Joe and Mika going on and on about how terrible Trump is. That is most critical of him should be taken off the air. This is not a reach. I could go back and talk about Nazi Germany and I do it,

I do it without any concerns whatsoever. And if people can't start drawing the parallels, well, you're just stupid or you have your head in the sand, or you're one of them. Whoa! Okay. So if you like Trump, if you voted for Trump, you're stupid, you have your head in the sand or you're one of them. For the past week. Huh. That was before they decided to go down. There was this little number, too. Grifter in chief, Joe Scarborough, just weeks ahead of the election, speaking to another grifter over on MSNBC, one Al Sharpton, Reverend Al Sharpton, who allegedly got $500,000 for his organization just weeks before. before he sat down with Kamala Harris for an MSNBC interview. Unbelievable. She gets sick and tired of me trying to understand other people

and being so pragmatic and trying to be like, I'm okay, you're okay. Now, where can we meet in the middle? La, la, la. On this question, we're past that. You can't meet. Listen, if they voted for Trump in 16, whatever. They voted for Trump in 20.

They knew exactly what they were doing. If they vote for Donald Trump in 2024, and I've said it on my show, I'll say it here. They're knowingly voting for a fascist. They're voting for a racist. They're voting for somebody that wants to put this country 200 years in the back. And so I'm not trying to figure them out. I'm trying to figure out how we get people out who love democracy, who love freedom, who love the rights of all Americans, how to get them to

the voting booth, because that's how we save our country. Joe, you're the man. What a journalist you are. Wow. Okay. So he's making the case that Donald Trump is all that bad. And you know what? If you voted for him, we can't forgive you for it, you know, because there's no way. There's no They're there. They're like you're, it's all or nothing. And yet then we saw Joe and Mika their hat in hand going to Mara Lapo. And then he says that the news now, this is the old one. Let's show you the new one. There is to regular citizens deeply dismayed by several of President-elect Trump's cabinet selections, and they are scared. Last Thursday, we expressed our own concerns on this

broadcast and even said we would appreciate the opportunity to speak with the president-elect himself. On Friday, we were given the opportunity to do just that. Joe and I went to Marilago to meet personally with President-elect Trump. It was the first time we have seen him in seven years. Now, we talked about a lot of issues, including abortion, mass deportation, threats of political retribution against political opponents and media outlets. We talked about that a good bit. And it's going to come as no surprise to anybody who watches this show, has watched it over the past year or over the past decade, that we didn't see eye to eye on a lot of issues, and we told him so. What we did agree on was to restart communications. My father often spoke with world leaders,

with whom he and the United States profoundly disagreed. That's a task shared by reporters and commentators. I mean, honestly, it's like they think they're negotiating with North Korea or something. I mean, they were so unbelievably

full of themselves. She's going to go to the enemy lines. Like, she's some kind of, you know, Secretary of State. I'm sorry. This is all about one thing and one thing.

only, okay? This is about Mika and Joe knowing that, bump-p-da, MSNBC is about to be sold. It happened October 31st. Go back to the earnings call. Mike Kavanaugh who runs the place said, guess what, we want to sell our cable networks. We want to spin them off after the election. Here we are, after the election. So he just revealed this days before, of course, the big day. And then it turned out that they want to not only sell off MSNBC, but also Oprah's network oxygen as well. The only thing they're going to keep is the streaming network because streaming's where it's at. Remember, subscribe, like, share all that good stuff. I'm going to go to your comments momentarily.

But listen, that's the reality of where we are. So they're going to keep the network. They want to get rid of everything else and they want to package it and they want to be able to spin it off. So Brian Roberts, who runs Comcast. Comcast owns NBC Universal. NBC Universal owns MSNBC. Brian's like, why are the inmates running the asylum? I mean, I get crazy Joy Reed.

I got these grifters, Joe and Mika. Can we not clean this thing up so that we can actually make a sale and maybe I can get some profit? Good luck, buddy. I don't think you're going to get very much. You know why? Disney can't sell ABC. I mean, Bob Iger would love to sell that pup. Like, he's dying to get rid of the view and ABC News.

And he can't. So what makes you think anybody really wants MSNBC? I don't think anybody wants it. But you know what I will tell you? Joe and Mika are very mindful of where their paycheck comes from. And Joe is a politician after all. Because you say to yourself, how could they say all those horrible things about Donald Trump and then show up, hat and hand at Mar-a-Lago and say, oh, you know, let's mend things.

Let's have a dialogue. Let's find places where we can actually agree on stuff. Well, it's for one reason and one reason only. Their ratings are tanking, so one, they're losing viewers, two, they're going to get sold. and what is the new buyer going to do? I think this happens regardless of whether they patched up with Trump or not. I mean, Trump may actually help their ratings. Just tad, just tad, but I think this happens.

The new buyer is going to fire them. Same as the new buyer is going to fire Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar at the View. You know, who else is going to get fired? It may actually get fired before the sale of MSNBC. Joy Behar. The other joy. Forgive me. I'm getting my joys mixed up.

The other joy, the really not so, neither one of them have much joy in them, right? But the other not so nice joy who's just been rabidly out there ever since Donald Trump win. In fact, she's even saying that you shouldn't bother having Thanksgiving holidays with your family members if, in fact, they voted for Trump. Because, you know, we can't forgive those people. That's exactly who Brian Roberts and Mike Kavanaugh, who runs. NBC wants to fire right now because they're not going to be able to sell this sucker. Nope, not with that kind of legacy going on. So they got to get rid of joy.

And Mika and Joe are desperately trying to hang onto their jobs. Because, you know, people are losing their jobs these days. Lots of people are losing their jobs these days, specifically over at one network in particular. Let me see if I can see this for you. Huh. CNN. It would be one CNN, which really seems to be up against it. Yep, lots of people losing their jobs, not just MSNBC in jeopardy,

but they're actually like shedding jobs as we speak at CNN, which is hemorrhaging. New article actually coming out, exposing some of this. First of all, you get ratings that are in the toilet. Okay, so they are down, actually not as bad as MSNBC, but actually pretty intense. They're down about 21%. So the CEO who came from the New York Times and doesn't really understand television. you know, God bless them, but he just does not understand television. And maybe that's okay right about now because TV doesn't really exist in the way it used to.

So he walks in, he's like, oh my God, all these talents, they're making so much money. Like they've never seen this much money over on the print side of the business. He came from the New York Times, as I said. So Mark Thompson's sitting down and looking at the books going, gosh, can't we do this more cheaply, more cheaply, more cheaply? Jake Tapper, reportedly, if you trust the Daily Mail, is making $3 million. bucks. You got other anchors if you trust the Daily Mail, like Wolf Blitzer, that may be making about $7 million. And then the word on the street per the Daily Mail. We like the Daily Mail, is that Anderson Cooper is making around $20 million. So they're looking at that, the bean counters

at CNN, and they're like, whoa, like this can't actually sustain itself because the industry's changing massively, right? Massively changing. And they're not going to have the right kind of ad support, especially in light of what just went down. So he had this secret meeting that he held. And according to Puck, which is a new online media publication, according to Puck, he basically was like, would you stop? Would you stop hating on Trump all the time? Like, what is the point of this?

Like, we actually have to represent more than just, we are the network that hates Trump. Of course, I think, I think MSNBC pretty much had that filled. They had you cornered on that one. I don't think you could compete enough. Not with Joy, Reed and, you know,

Rachel Maddo who shows up once a week. You guys were no match for that. So they had that covered, and you're suddenly realizing, wait a second, we've got to be something else, something different, except nobody wants you. No one.

Look, the first victim of the layoffs over there at CNN, that would be one Chris Wallace, who was paid somewhere around $5 million, I guess, to host that streaming show, which never took off because they got rid of their streaming network, I guess, before that could even happen. So they're challenged, their challenge.

And more are expected to go. But what I think you need to remember is how fearful they are now because they did some really bad stuff. It's almost as though during this election, I was like, why do they keep getting worse and worse? Like the TDS is crazy. It's absolutely on steroids. And they're just going so.

far out on that curve, like they're right there on the ledge, ready to jump off, and one wondered why they were doing this. And I think it had a lot to do, believe it or not, with the fear of this moment in time, right? If Donald Trump wins, well, what's going to happen to them? Because the further and further out they went, well, the more likely it becomes that Donald Trump's going to do exactly what you're seeing him doing. He's actually out there saying, okay, it's time to sue. It's time to actually, you know, make some. changes. It's time to actually get my FCC chairman in there, who by the way is one strong badass of a guy. Like he's going to come in. He's going to say, well, this isn't fair. I mean,

CBS, what are you doing? Re-editing stuff to make somebody seem great and somebody else not so great. This is going to get called into question. One of the things he pointed out, Brendan Carr, who's going to be head of the FCC just yesterday, was that the FCC, forgive me, FCC, made it their number two mission to make sure that there was more diversity, equity, inclusion. So, like, you know, when you're watching TV, you see the commercials come on, and everybody's, like, you know, interracial couples, and, you know, you make sure you see lots of people that look this way and lots of people like that, and, you know, blue hair and piercings and everything.

I don't know. I'm making that up. But, like, the point is, is, like, you need representation, representation, representation. If you didn't have enough representation, you were going to get threatened with losing your license as a broadcaster. So that's what that's been about, from the shows to the commercials themselves. And I think now things are about to change in a pretty massive way, as they should, right? Like, as they should. I mean, look, this is partly why I started 76 research with Rob, because the DEI, ESG stuff had gotten so out of hand. And I'm like, well, there's bargains out there.

There's ways to invest appropriately without all this nonsense. And even if the big guys can't, because they have all those stupid, stupid rules, you know what? My rule. is profits profits count profits matter and rob is brilliant he's been doing this for decades and run billions of dollars on wall street for decades and he's been a dear friend for a very long time and i said you know what if we could actually give really good quality research that doesn't have to be beholden to the dei and the esg nonsense and we give that on a big scale to the public cheaply right because hedge funds they pay like thousands of dollars for this stuff and so we we partnered to up to create 76 research. We have a brand new guide out right now. It's called Invest in MAGA. You can get it for

free. Just sign up over at investin MAGA.com. We have model portfolios, 10 to 15 stocks in each one of those model portfolios. You can become a founders club that's the best deal because you get the most in terms of the portfolios, including any new ones we add. So go take a look at that. Again, it's invest in maga.com, because there's a lot of change coming, not just within the media sector, but also in the financial sector, Bitcoin, by the way, that's exploding. We got news today. Howard Lutnik is going to be, it seems, I don't know if it's been made totally, totally official. Sometimes I hear things back channel, and I need to make sure before I come out and report it, that it's actually been out there. But Howard Lucknick is expected to be, expected to be the new Treasury Secretary of the United States of

America. So he had a good one last time around in Steve Mnuchin, Steve Mnuchin, the former Goldman Sacks banker. Howard Lutnik. is CEO of Canterford's Gerald. You may have heard of them because of the tragedy they experienced on 9-11. He is very pro-Bitcoin for whatever that's worth. I think Scott Bessent was too. But nonetheless, that seems to be where the direction is heading right now. Again, I'll see if it's been confirmed officially.

Perhaps not officially. It looks like this is what is anticipated. Donald Trump, the Wall Street Journal, now reporting Donald Trump to pick Howard Lutnik as forgive me. Oh, wow. Okay, I get corrected in real time. This is very interesting. I got to put this headline up for you.

Okay, so this is, here I am. You guys probably caught me. Maybe you did. It just broke 32 minutes ago. Here we go. I want you to see this. Howard Lutnik is expected to be the next commerce secretary of the United States of America. So that's kind of a big deal.

because it means that treasury is still open. So everything that I was saying yesterday about treasury still holds. My sources say that Howard was making quite a stink and I really, really wanted it. And believe me, Howard is a very, you know, he's the kid from Queens. So he's very much getting, you know, willing to get very noisy. He apparently had the likes of Elon Musk in his corner. and I think even Michael Saylor, actually, Michael's been on this show, and Michael is somebody I believe who tweeted out or retweeted something

that was in the pro-Haward-Lutnik camp. Michael Seller is the largest holder of Bitcoin. Now, he's being named Commerce Secretary. I would not be surprised. And this is just, you know, I'm rambling. This is real-time show. I'm going to give you my intel as I see it, knowing Donald Trump, he might be a little reluctant for somebody like Howard Lutnik

because Howard has a very large stack. of Bitcoin personally. And given that he was being pushed by the Bitcoin community, he, Donald Trump, may have been sensitive to that. I would not be surprised. And, of course, you don't want the appearance of people profiting personally, right? On any of this? So it looks like the game is still on for Treasury Secretary.

It looks like in sort of from what I'm hearing, Scott Besson could still be in the running, although Kevin Warsh, Kevin Warsh, who's sort of, you know, and a Fed guy, institutional guy for a long time, is also very much in the running. But I think that this is quite telling. Howard ran the whole transition team. He apparently wanted Treasury Secretary. Commerce is great.

Commerce is absolutely great. It looks like he's going with Howard Lutnik as Commerce Secretary. We'll see. It's not been made official official. But again, the intel I was getting earlier today that he might actually have Treasury seems to have been wrong. So we'll see. We'll see.

Exciting, huh? All happening right here in real time. So anyway, we were talking about just the mess that the media is. Really, really just lousy. You know what? No one listens to the mainstream media anymore. I mean, that's what they can't figure out. I mean, they're sitting here going, but wait a second.

You know, we told you he was a bad guy. We told you he was a this and that. I don't even want to repeat the stuff that they were saying about Donald Trump. and yet America overwhelmingly voted for Donald Trump anyway. He won the popular vote. Okay, that tells you what you need to know. And so now they're sitting there going, well, what do we do now? I mean, Joe and Mika made the pilgrimage to Mara Lago to try and figure out if they could mend fences in some way, shape, or form

because, you know, they're scared out of their minds. They're going to be out having to do a podcast soon. Let me just, let me tell them. Rest assured, life is actually better. here on the other side. Make sure you subscribe, share, like all that good stuff. But here they are trying to figure out, you know, why are they so irrelevant? They just can't figure out why they're not relevant. Listen to this. New research shows one in five adults regularly get their news from influencers on social media. The number is even higher among younger Americans with almost

40% under the age of 30 getting their news from those sources. According to the Pew Research Center, the social media site X remains the most widely accessed platform, followed by Instagram and YouTube. I mean, that comes obviously for political news. And Mike, that's the challenge. You grew up in a newsroom like Jean grew up in a newsroom. I mean, that's a lot of challenge. That's a challenge for a lot of mainstream media sources is do they make themselves relevant again to hear 20% of adults who actually get. influencers on social media.

I don't know how they... Maybe somebody who makes baskets, and while they're making baskets, they look up and say vote for candidate acts. I don't know how they make themselves. You see how arrogant they are? Make ourselves relevant again because... They don't know how to make themselves relevant again.

Can't compete with 20-second snippets. Or basket weavers. An iPhone walking up... Morseals. Getting your entire news digest of the day in less than a minute on your phone as you're walking in the crowd with... coffee in one hand and your phone on the other. I don't know how we catch up to that.

Yeah, so Jane Robinson. You can't. And this is actually what some people are starting to realize. So remember how X was like persona non grata? And you just heard the guy who, well, I guess got fired for plagiarism from the Boston Globe, Mike Barnacle. Well, he's like now one of the cool kids on Morning Joe, if you can call them that. That's a big if. That's a big if. All right, anyway, so they all hate Twitter. And yeah, the kids are watching the 20-second clips on Twitter. We show you a lot of the 20-second clips, and we digest them, and we talk about them here. But the reality is that all those corporate elites and snobby elites with all their arrogance,

they just suddenly realize that actually, maybe they actually need to be back on Twitter. X. They need to be back on X. they can't actually just take their ball and go home like they tried to do. I don't know what that was about. They're like, okay, well, Elon has it now. So we're just not going to participate. Well, now they're participating, believe me, because that's where the action is at.

Now I know that there's some influencers like, oh, the woman who's about to get fired from Disney's Snow White. You know, Rachel, Rachel Zegler, that cute little ingenue that seems some. sweet when she was in West Side Story. She had kind of a pretty voice. I liked her, and then she turned it to something else. Oh my goodness. Even got Gina Carano fired from Disney because Gina wouldn't put up her pronouns on her Twitter account. You know, funny how this all sort of comes full circle, especially considering that there is one little lady. That would be AOC, who actually also is not putting her pronouns up on Twitter anymore. you know what, it doesn't really matter, now does it? No, it doesn't really matter. And so all of this

is, of course, I mean, this little one here she is, this is Rachel Zegler who likes to wear a mask when she is greeting and speaking with any of her fans outside the Broadway play that she's doing right now. So she got Gina fired. She's saying, I'm off X, I'm done. I don't want to participate in anymore, you know, because I'm going to take my ball and go home. the reality just is this, and that's that everybody else is there. I'm there, by the way, follow me there. We're live there right now, by the way. And that's sort of the way the world is.

And so the faster the mainstream media catches up with where we all are, the better. I mean, that's better for society. I criticize Mika and Joe as being grifters and just caring about their bottom line and making sure they don't get fired. But in reality, I do hope that there is more of an exchange of ideas. I hope we can go back to a place in America where we can all speak and we can all be heard and we can all be respectful of one another because let's face it, there's one team that's not respectful at all. Like, you could get fired for being a Donald Trump supporter. There were kids that were freaking out on college campuses if they saw so much as a Trump side on the street.

And they still have this TDS over at The View, right? Owned by Disney's ABC News. And by the way, this idea that Trump won with some kind of mandate is not true. I mean, we have information there. He beat Kamala Harris by 1.6%. Joe Biden beat Trump by 4.5%. And nobody said it was a mandate. So get that out of your lips, out of your mouth.

It actually is a mandate. It is a mandate. Should we pull up the maps? I mean, it's all red. And then a couple little blue sparkles here and there because you all think your stars. Okay, you go on with your little sparkling, little blue stars that you all. on the coast in New York City and in L.A., but the rest of the country, we're somewhere else, you know what?

Because we actually believe that you do need law and order. We actually do believe that you need the police. You cannot defund the police. Have you seen for goodness sakes what happened in New York City? Tragic. Tragic. An insane person who had been let out of jail because, you know, why would you keep them in jail?

I mean, not unless they want a transgender surgery. Would you keep them in jail? Then you could give it to them. for free, right, if Kamala were in charge, for goodness sakes. Anyway, you know, these, these networks are flipping out because they're getting hit with potentially billions of dollars in lawsuits. Donald Trump is filing lawsuits against all of them, from the Daily Beast to Penguin House publishing, to the New York Times, to ABC News and George Stephanopoulos, personally there, to CBS news. In fact, in CBS, he's filing for $10 billion, which actually,

is more than the parent company, Paramount, is actually worth. So, you put them all out of business together. The view's kind of panicked about this. I mean, hey, at least over at MSNBC, they get Mika and Joe that are willing to suck up to anybody who they need to suck up to. I don't know if you get the same thing going on there at the View. They're getting nervous. They want to actually now see if they can find a conservative, some conservative voices

to just join their little table and round things out. Good luck. Good luck. I mean, you'd have to be some kind of. masochistic idiot to go on that show. I never understood it. I've had friends that do have done that show and conservatives that have done that show. And I'm like, really? Like, do you hate yourself that much? It is so not worth it to have to face the likes of Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar every day. I mean, my gosh, just looking at them, right? Okay, now I'm getting

a little mean, but let's see where they've been and what they have done. moments ago the trump camp coming out with a statement based on what just transpired of course as you know we learned that judge mershoun judge mershawne has made the decision to adjourn the case and elven brag the district attorney in manhattan who is desperate to run and when again still wants to find some kind of way to get a prison sentence for the man who will then be, by the time they go after him, quite elderly, and will have been the 47th president of the United States. I mean, this is bonkers. This is Alvin Bragg, just to jog your memory over the summer. Do you plan to request a prison sentence that Donald Trump's multiple violations of the gag order that was in place to factor in to

not request at all? The judge scheduled a sentencing for July 11th. We will speak to in court in that time. He also said a motion schedule. We will speak in our court filings as we've done throughout this proceeding. Yeah. All right. So basically, Mershon was like, you know, I'm going to just adjourn this thing, which means he calls it off. The ball then goes back to the district attorney. And the district attorney, Alvin Brague, whom you just saw, said that he actually is going to delay the sentencing till 2009. I mean, the problem. is like they don't really have a case here. Like none of this really makes a tremendous amount of sense, as the Trump team has noted.

Here is the statement that just came out. Trump fans releasing this, the transition team saying, quote, this is a total and definitive victory for President Trump with the American people who elected him in a landslide. The DA in Manhattan has conceded that this witch hunt cannot continue. The lawless case is now. stayed and President Trump's legal team is moving to get it dismissed once and for all. That's from Stephen Chung, the Trump Communications Director. So I suspect it's a little bit more

nuanced than that. I love the glass half full. But my worry, because I worry about these people, is still that they're going to try and hold this over his head. What they need to do right now is get it dismissed once and for all, okay? The DA knows he can't move forward. with this. Okay, so he recognizes that. And that's Stephen Chang making that point. Okay, that is good. But why are we punting until 2029? It needs to be gone, gone, gone. And so that's sort of the next stage in this. And I think the Trump legal team is going to have to go back and demand that this thing be thrown out. You're not going to sit there, what, for the next however many years and just wait and see and see whether or not they come to any kind of

plan for 20-29. He's got to govern. He's got to move on. Why do they do this? Why? I think we know the answer. Again, they want to have something to campaign on. They want to have something to run on. They want to have a reason, a reason for being. And that's pretty darn sad. You know, I'll tell you, it's not getting them anything. I mean, the stupidity of things like defund the police. And then let's go after Trump. Let's go after Trump. The stupidity of, oh, we've got to stand up for transgender's everywhere, and suddenly Leah Thomas wins the big athlete of the year, women, female athlete of the year. I mean, that doesn't sit well with people, right? It doesn't sit well with anyone. And I think that a lot of people are looking at it. And from young people

to Hispanics, to women, I mean, they're like, this doesn't add up. And then, you know, you get the real cool kids, not the MSNBC freaks, but the real cool kids having a really good time over it, things like, I don't know, the UFC things. How strong that team is making his way into the pitchmars, a large stance. So why is it that all the predictable groups, right, from African Americans to Hispanics, to young men,

like why is it that they all decided they were against Kamala Harris. Well, Hispanic one, I think, comes down to culture. Really and truly, I think that the left just got it all wrong. I sat down moments ago with Jose Mayer about this. He runs Libre de org. Let's listen in. Here was more on why Hispanics came out in droves. Somebody who was on the ground working the doors, working the phones,

making sure he was getting folks registered himself. That would be Jose Mayer. He is head of B-L-L-L-I-B-R-E. be free, obviously. Good to see you, Jose. Great to be here, Trish. Thank you for having me. So, wow. I mean, like, you guys had a huge part in this. I know. Like, what was the ground game? Because everybody was worried that not enough people were going to show up. It was remarkable, by the way, what we saw, because, look, I mean, a lot of Hispanics might not have intuitively gone for Trump. And they sure did in record numbers. I mean, look at Arizona. I'm just

blown away. One, why? Why did they vote for Donald Trump? And two, to how did you get them like, how did you organize this in such a way? Yeah, look, I think, you know, the Liban initiative has been on the ground for 12 years, right? Actually, 13 years. Technically, we started in 2011. So over those 13 years, we've expanded across the country into communities that people wouldn't even expect this to be in. So you mentioned Arizona. That's obviously an important large Latino population, same with Nevada, Florida, and Texas.

But then we also have operations in North Carolina. We have operations in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin. And in all those states, those are all battleground states that, you know, the margins are razor thin. So our emphasis was heavy on engaging with people, and we've been doing it for 12 years. So we engage with folks. We build trust in the community. Once we build this trust and they know that we are not just coming in and leaving with the election, that we're there to stay to provide, you know, whatever support we can from England.

classes to getting your driver's license to becoming a U.S. citizen, we then talk to them about policy, and we show them that our ideas are better, that free market principles, that educational choice, those are better ideas. And then when election seasons come around, we have an arm that's Libre Action where I serve as an advisor that endorses candidates. So we endorse a number of Senate candidates, right? So McCormick in Pennsylvania, Bernie Moreno in Ohio, Sam Brown, and Nevada, and we go knock on their doors and we tell them, listen, this is a consequential election. If you don't like the direction that this country is going in, if you're upset about the economic situation of the Biden administration, you need to come out and vote. And when you cast that ballot against those policies, against those ideas, don't forget that there's a Senate candidate on the ballot.

And so we were able to get them to come out to vote for the top of the ticket. But then we were able to get them to connect with those Senate candidates and say, yes, I need to vote for these policy makers who are going to represent what I believe. One of the things I think the left really got wrong and is somebody who is not Spanish, but certainly has been exposed to a lot of Spanish culture. My first job was actually covering Latin American sovereign debt markets at Goldman and Venezuela, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, actually. And I speak Spanish. And so I'm very familiar with some of the challenges of the immigrant community here. I am familiar with the challenges that certainly we've seen from a political and economic perspective

throughout the Western Hemisphere, specifically when it pertains to Latin and South America. But one of the things I guess that surprised me this go-around was how dense the left was on it because, like, basic things, right? Like, you're going to come out with Latinx. And I'm like, guys, like, what do you think the entire language is, right? Like, the entire language, you've got masculine and feminine nouns. And, like, you're going to remake Spanish? Yeah.

With this Latino, you're a Latina, you're Latino. No, like, you can't be Latinx. I mean, nobody, nobody's going to, that's not going to fly. That's not going to play in Peoria. So as they say. And it was this kind of like blunder, one after another. Like, they just didn't seem to get the values that I think the Hispanic community actually holds pretty dear. Yeah, and that's a great point, Trish.

I think something that the left has done for a long time, and they've been effective at it, is use identity politics to divide people against each other, right? To divide one group of Latinos against another one. the divide people of means, right? People who've had success and have had wealth against those who are trying to make it and kind of blame someone, sort of the victim mentality. Hey, it's their fault. And this is all part of that narrative of identity politics.

And unfortunately, you're absolutely right. In this climate right now where people were literally paying double or triple what their basic goods cost, right? Four years ago. Yeah. You couldn't, you could talk to them of whatever you want. They weren't going to listen to any of that. They were going to vote based on what was in the best interest of their family. And it was the economic issues that drove out.

Well, the economic issues, but also something else, because I think the left was relying on this idea that somehow Hispanics everywhere just wanted, you know, the floodgates open and more and more people to come here. And that's not actually what we've seen at all. I want to bring you to some of Tom Homan, who's not going to be running, the border's testimony where he was making the point that you can't have this lawless. and I want to get your perspective on what the Hispanic community really thinks of this. First of all, your comments are disgusting.

I've served my country as well, sir, I've served my country in 34 years. I find your comments disgusting as well. I've served my country for 34 years and yes, I held a five-year-old boy in my arms and back that tractor trailer, I knelt down beside him and said a prayer for him because I knew what his last 30 minutes his life were like. And I had a five-year-old son at the time. What I've been trying to do, my 34 years serving my nation, it's just a little bit of my save lives. So if you just sit there and insult my integrity and my love from my

country and for the and for children, that's why this whole thing needs to be fixed. And you're the member we agree on that fix it. We agree on that but I disagree but I also disagree with your characterization of the chairman gentleman, gentlemen, gentlemen, gentlemen, look you want to know there's 50,000 people in detention, you why and why we have a million one million of the entries in the United States, you want to know I have these issues because you have failed to secure the border. You have failed to work with this president

to close the three loopholes. We've asked for two years to close. So if you want to know why this issue exists, you need to look in the mirror. You have failed American people who are not secure in the border and closing loopholes. Mr. Holman, please respect the chair and the authority of the chair.

The time of the gentleman has expired. I've asked you to let me go beyond my time, and you let other people go beyond their time, but not to Tom Holman. He don't get me to go beyond his time. Mr. Holman, We have approved an agreement between the Republicans and the Democrats with the ranking member. We increased the time of one witness, one member of Congress who was interrupted by a protest.

That is done with the approval of the ranking member. Please respect the chair's authority. I respect the chair's authority, but the chair. Mr. Holman. You work for me. I'm a taxpayer. I'm a taxpayer. You work for me.

So the recommendation of the many that you recommend. recommended, you recommended family separation. I recommend a zero tolerance. Which includes family separation. The same as is, whatever you a citizen parent gets arrested when they're with a child. Zero tolerance was interpreted as the policy that separated children from their parents. If I get arrested for DUI and I have a young child in a car, I'm going to be separated. When I was a police officer in New York and I arrested a father for domestic violence, I separated that father from his family.

Mr. Hohman, with all to respect, legal assailies are not charged. charge with any crime. When you're under the country illegally is violation 8, United States Code 1325. Seeking asylum is legal. If you want to seek asylum and go through the port of entry, do it the legal way. The attorney general of the United States has made that clear. So, Jose, all right. This is the guy who's in charge of the border now.

And a lot of people are saying, well, why would Hispanics have voted for him? And, you know, by voting for Trump, you're effectively voting for him. And I'll let you answer that question. Yeah. Look, Hispanics believe in the rule of law, right? Like so many Americans, we want law and order. We want a society that's civil. Now, one thing about those clips that you see is a lot of the rhetoric and a lot of the language that's used that sometimes is very charged and can be clipped into even smaller sound bites than those, right?

You did a good job of playing the whole clip so you don't just pick and choose. But that's what's happened with this immigration debate. it's become a fight over sound bites and who could score points against the other side. But one thing Mr. Holman said when he pointed at the member of Congress and said, you're responsible for this. You need to fix it. You've let the American people down. I think we could say that about Congress.

And he also mentioned 30 years without anything happening. I think Latino communities, what they want is they want civility. Like communities are on the border. They're living through the nightmare that is this crisis. Like it's affecting their quality of life. And they're also having a witness, like he mentioned, some really awful things that as Americans, we should not be willing to accept. So that border crisis, you know, sometimes people talk about the humanitarian issues and so on.

Well, there's nothing more humanitarian than securing the border. Because what happens in the journey here, what those cartels, the organized crime organizations that are bringing people due to these folks is awful. So as Americans, I think it's the right thing to do. Latinos believe that. And most Latinos, listen, we understand the difficulties that people have to go. go through and so on. But a lot of folks that came here came here the legal way, right? And they want to respect that. So what we need to do is improve that legal system, make it better because it is broken. And that's what Mr. Holman was mentioning. The legal system is broken. We haven't had any

policy in 30 years. The border is a disaster. We haven't had any enforcement of the law and the rule of law. And so if we get there, I think that's what Latino wants. And frankly, at the end of the day, look, we are prouder than anyone else when it comes to the values that make America exceptional. I think anyone who is a naturalized citizen has to take an oath that those of us that were born here, I was born here, don't have to take. And in that oath, you commit yourself to protecting and defending the Constitution of the United States. That's something that all Americans should aspire to want. It's long order like anything else. That's what they believe in. And, you know, I look at this horrible situation that's been unfolding in New York with the four people

that were stabbed, it's awful, but this whole defund the police, like, and that's not, that's not something that's specific to Hispanic people in New York. This guy, it doesn't seem like there's any rhyme or reason to his victims, but the fact that he had been in prison and was let out, you understand what's going down here. I mean, people just say, look, I want to be safe. I don't want to have to fear for my life, and I think in these border communities, but in these also very urban communities as well, it doesn't matter what color you are, what you're ethnicity is, all that matters is that you know you're an American and you want to be safe and you need a little law and order in order for all that to happen. Listen, I know you guys had a big

hand in getting the vote out with B Libre. I want to encourage everybody to go over and look at what you guys are doing because I know you're going to have your work cut out for you just over the next couple of years. It's not about every four years or every two years. It's about the day to day and making sure that, you know, we embrace everyone in this country. it's really, it's the American way. So thank you for all you do. Jose, very, very, very good to see you. Jose, my idea from bilibre.org.

Thank you. All right. So our thanks to Jose, there's another story developing right now. Mike Johnson, who is, of course, Speaker of the House, was just asked a short time ago about this story that some of you may have been following, may not have been following, I guess, somebody that's coming into the house is originally a man and this has become kind of an issue

specifically for one Nancy Mace who is saying that she does not want to use the same restroom as the person that is transgender who is coming in and this is kind of heating up so much so that just a short moment ago we heard from Mike Johnson and we also heard from Nancy. Mace. So Nancy Mace, really attacking the issue straight on. Let me bring you her sound because this just appeared. And I actually haven't even seen this myself. So how do you like that? But we'll watch it together here in real time. This effort in response to Congresswoman with bribes coming to Congress? Yes, and absolutely and then some. I'm not going to stand for a man. You know, if someone with a penis is in the women's locker room, that's not okay. And I'm a victim of abuse. My

I'm a rape survivor. I have PTSD from the abuse I've suffered at the hands of a man. And I know how vulnerable women and girls are in private spaces. So I'm absolutely a hundred percent going to stand in the way of any man who wants to be in a women's restroom in our locker rooms and our changing rooms. I will be there fighting you every step of the way. Wow. Okay. So again, the wrap on this is this is somehow just Congresswoman Mace being

mean. The reality is the issue is a whole lot bigger than that, right? We know that and we get into that. But before we do, I just want you to see. Mike Johnson, of course, was asked, Speaker, Speaker Mike Johnson being asked about this moments ago, and I want to show you his reaction. Mr. Speaker, is freshman elect Sarah McBride, a man or a woman? Look, I'm not going to get into this. We welcome all new members with open arms. who are duly elected representatives of the people. I believe it's a command that we treat all persons with dignity and respect, and we will. And I'm not going to engage in silly debates about this.

There's a concern about the uses of restroom facilities and locker rooms and all that. This is an issue that Congress has never had to address before. We're going to do that in deliberate fashion with member consensus on it, and we will accommodate the needs of every single person. That's all I'm going to say about that. You plan on bringing Nancy Mesa's transgender bill and putting that into the rules package? I'm not going to address the plans on any of that. I just told you what I'm going to say about the issue. I'm not going to engage in this. We don't look down upon anyone. We treat everybody with dignity and respect.

That's a principle that I pursued my whole life. And we will take care of this issue of first impression for Congress, as we will any other thing. We'll provide appropriate accommodation for every member of Congress. Okay. So that means probably providing some accommodation. than for Nancy Mace, who's not very comfortable sharing the restroom. Look, here's the deal. I don't think anybody is mean-spirited. But when you run into situations where you don't get the same opportunity because somebody who's a naturally born male decides to change into becoming a female,

I'm thinking one Leah Thomas, and suddenly you come in second in the relay race, and you miss out on a major opportunity, just as Riley Gaines did, you know what, that's not fair, okay? That's really and truly not fair. Part of me wants to say, okay, you know, well, who cares, the stupid restroom, whatever, but you see, it's the bigger issue, I think, that keeps coming up. The bigger issue of women getting shortchanged over and over and over again.

I go to the mall now, and everything is, you know, one come all, right? They have individual restrooms, but everyone can use them. I'm sorry, they're not as clean. They're just not. You know, the ladies' room was a better place to be than the men's room. I'm just saying. So I'd also add to this, you know, women, often you'll see a line for the ladies' room that's like a whole lot longer than the men's room, okay? And now, maybe more. But nobody's trying to be mean. I think that's what's getting misinterpreted. But you know what is sad? I commend Mike Johnson for trying to deflect on

this issue, but what's sad is that it's young girls that wind up paying the price. And like somebody's going to stand up and say, you know what, this is not going to fly. Because what the left is trying to do is again make this into a political hot potato to try and back

us conservatives into a corner where we seem like we're the mean guys and gals because we don't want communal restrooms and we don't want communal sports. Well, I think America made it really clear how they feel, but apparently they're not getting the message over there on MSNBC.

Jen Saki leading her show that airs, I don't even know when or where, but somehow I saw a clip. I guess I'm one of those guilty of seeing clips on Twitter. I saw this clip and I wanted to show it to you because she's trying to double down on this issue, an issue which one could argue did indeed help cost Kamala Harris and the rest of the Dems, their spots. There's obviously a lot of soul searching right now

going on within the Democratic Party, and that's a good thing. But what I worry about is that in the course of all that soul searching, some Democrats might reach the wrong sweeping conclusions. And there are a lot of issues that fall into that bucket. But one in particular that stuck out to me is transgender rights.

Republicans spend hundreds of millions of dollars on anti-trans ads this election cycle, including one that showed Vice President Harris talking about government funding for gender reaffirming care for prisoners and det. That was true. She did. If that sounds like a particularly obscure issue, it is because it applies to a tiny group of people. And it's also a policy that, by the way, was in place during the first Trump presidency.

Another one of the lines that ran over and over again in those ads and throughout right-wing media is this idea that America is faced with a crisis of boys playing in girls' sports. Now, these ads created this perception that the issues of trans kids playing sports was dominating schools across the country, which is completely false. Some people got pulled into that argument. I mean, immediately after the election, Congressman Seth Moulton told the New York Times that, quote, Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face.

I have two little girls. I don't want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat, I'm supposed to be afraid to say that. And then last week in Congressman Moulton came on this network to discuss those comments. I was just speaking authentically as a dad about one of many issues where I think we're just out of touch with the majority of voters. And I stand by my position. You know, maybe I didn't get all the words exactly right. But the point is that the backlash I've perceived proves my point that we can't even have these discussions as a party.

Look, reflection is good. But if that were actually an issue at thousands of schools across the country, it would be worthy. of a debate, but there are just incredibly few examples of transgender girls playing in youth sports. And when we see those examples, there isn't evidence that these kids are a threat to safety or fairness. It comes obviously for political news. And Mike, that's the challenge.

You grew up in a newsroom, like Jean grew up in a newsroom. I mean, that's a lot of challenge. He's upset because everybody gets their news from Twitter. But Jen Saki, back to what she's trying to say, like, okay, it doesn't matter. because it's just 0.01% of the population, except what if you're the young woman that doesn't make the team? Because somebody who was originally a man and is now a woman, is there instead.

I mean, this is actually happening all over the country, and you can talk to women who have been victims of this. They're not too happy. They're not too happy at all. And, you know, it's very interesting. It's very interesting because this woman works for MSNBC, and I do believe that one Joe Scarborough, who's suddenly kissing up to Donald Trump, was just on air the next morning saying, you know what?

We miss this because of all this garbage on all this trans stuff, right? And people are afraid to speak. So it looks like they're having a little bit of an upset within their own party, and she's trying to warn people, et cetera. I would say this. You know what, Hillary Clinton, I know we're not big fans of her here, but she actually warned the Democrat Party a couple of years ago. Like, don't dig in too hard on this because that's just not where America is.

And then the trans community came on and attacked her and everybody was all over her. So they have a problem, shall we say, with their base. And until they fix their base, they're not really going to be able to fix who they are. They don't know who they are. They have become irrelevant. as the former Boston reporter started to set. A lot of mainstream media sources do they make themselves relevant again to hear 20% of adults

who actually get influencers on social media? I don't know how they... Maybe somebody who makes baskets, and while they're making baskets, they look up and say vote for candidate acts. I don't know how they make themselves, how we make ourselves relevant again because we can't compete with 20-second snippets.

on an iPhone walking up with morals getting, you can't compete with anything because you know what, guys, you've actually just completely lost who you are. Forget about whether it's 20 seconds. Hey, you know, we get thousands of people tuning in. Ian, good to see you. Mike Costa, good to see you. I know, cat crazy, good to see you.

You've been here a while. Listen, we're here. We're talking about all these issues, and we've been going like almost an hour and a half, okay? So it's not just that. It's the fact that you guys are so arrogant and you're so out of touch, and you think to hell with the young women that aren't going to get the gold medal, or to hell with the young women that feel uncomfortable in that restroom.

I mean, I realize that Nancy Mace is making a very big deal about one particular case. But can't we come up with a solution for that? Like, can't there be an individual restroom for that particular person? Like, you know, when the worldwide governing body of the Swimming Association said, hey, you can swim in your lane and your lane only. After all, you're not allowed to take certain kinds of drugs and medications to improve your muscles. Now, are you? You can't have testosterone supplements in the Olympics. So why would you have somebody who had testosterone in their system for that many years during those?

crucial years when they're building their muscular capacity, then able to compete against women. I mean, like, why am I, why am I the mean one for saying, you know, okay, Nancy has a point. Like, can we not be civil as a society and say, okay, we feel bad for that person, but it's not really all the women's problem to deal with, you know, maybe give them another bathroom and give them her, him, whatever, like, whatever gender they are on that particular day, they get their own lane in the swimming pool and their own lane on the track. And you know what? Fine. But don't cost our girls. Our naturally born females, anything. We need to look out for them. A reminder, if I haven't told you already, we're sponsored in part by our friends over at American Heart for Gold.

We're going to market that, again, I think, well, let me give you real numbers in real time as we get word that the treasury pick is not going to be Howard Lutnik. He is going to commerce. Howard Lutnik going over as Commerce Secretary. That's very, very interesting to me because it tells me Scott Bessent is back in play. And I think Scott would be very good. I think Kevin Warsh would be good too. But I think Scott, you know, he's been an investor for so many years. He's thinking about things in very, very important ways.

So here's the passage from the Wall Street Journal article. In a statement announcing his pick, Trump called Lutnik, a, quote, dynamic force on Wall Street. That is absolutely true. And he praised him for building a, quote, sophisticated process and system to staff the incoming administration. True as well, because Lutnik was running the whole transition team. Trump considered Lutnik to lead the Treasury Department, but he fell out of favor for the job amid mounting tension with another leading contender, investor Scott Bessent. Lutnik's allies, including Elon Musk, signaled their support for Lutnik for Treasury.

I got to tell you guys, I thought this one might be over. When I saw that Musk was out tweeting for Lutnik, I was like, oh, well, you know, what Elon Musk wants, Elon Musk gets. But this is a very interesting example of Elon Musk maybe not carrying all this way, of Trump pushing back and saying, wait a second, this is the guy I originally picked. And so I think that's important. I'm not going to read too much into that other than remember Donald Trump is his own man. And he's not going to be forced to do anything, whether it be by Elon Musk or the kids or anyone else. He's there following his instincts on what he thinks is right. And I know he likes Scott a lot. I think, as I said, Kevin's also in the mix. I think this is a really important

appointment. Don't forget, he wants to use tariffs and use them all day, right, to fight all these international battles. You've got to have a really good Treasury Secretary to do that. So this person is going to be working very, very closely with him. And again, as we have just learned, it seems that Scott is back in the running and Howard is going over to commerce. Interesting, interesting moment. There's a lot that's going to be very interesting in the coming weeks and days. I do encourage you if you haven't already, go get the free invest in maga.com guide that Rob and I worked tirelessly to put out. A lot of information there for you on how to think about these markets because I think, I really do think, that there are good times ahead. Look, anything can happen, right? Anything can happen. And I'm not your

financial advisor, although I do have a lot of really good ideas. And Rob has been doing this forever for 20 years and he's a phenomenal stock picker. I mean, just look at, let me see if I can show you, just some of our portfolio holdings, because they've been up significantly. I don't have it right in front of me, I guess, at this moment, but I love showing you because we have done so well with these model portfolios. We look at a lot more just in the 76 report. The model portfolios have 10 to 15 stocks in each one of them. The 76 report looks at a lot of trends. For example, what do we say? We're going to see where Bitcoin is right now. I told you guys when it was 65,000. Remember I had Michael Saylor on the show and at 65,000 per coin, we published a note saying you really ought to

look hard at this. I mean, it's wild. It's the Wild West. It's going to be all over the place. You know that. But it's kind of the, you know, schmuck insurance type thing. Like you might just want to have it anyway, just a little bit with money that you can spare. Wow, okay, 93,541. I bet it would have been 100 if they had gotten Howard there at Treasury. So 93,541, we said get it at 65. I mean, I've been falling in it since it was 10, so there you go. I know everybody, you know, gets nervous with it, and I think you've got to take that into account, and you've got to remember it is extraordinarily volatile, and, you know, you could be up 30 and down 30 all within the span of a day. So it's one of the reasons why some people, like Michael Seller, actually,

kind of love it. They love the volatility of it. It's good to see you all here. Chris, great to have you here on the show. It is just, I'm seeing so many, Billy Lynn, welcome back, sir. I saw some of your comments, Billy, I'm trying to put this up, I saw some of Billy's comments on some of the other chapters that we put out, because, you know, we've got content coming all the time. My team is wonderful. They'll take this show and they'll divvy it up into little spots for you guys to be able to watch this in smaller chunks because, you know, an hour and a half is a lot. Oh, thank you so much.

Michael Parks, 84 in the UK. Welcome to the show. We love having you here. Great to see everyone. Listen, I want to remind you that we are live here every day, around one-ish, around one-ish. And I look forward to seeing you back here again on the program again tomorrow. There's so much going on.

There's so much to be excited about. Maybe we'll have. maybe we will have a pick for treasury by that time. In the meantime, I do encourage you. Go over to invest in maga.com. Go there, learn, learn, learn, because there's a lot of opportunity ahead and I look forward to being here with you

every step of the way. History is in the making. Minute by minute, it's changing quickly. I'm here to help guide you through all of it and make sense of it. I'll see you tomorrow.
