| The report states that former federal prosecutor Mark Pomerantz, who at one time volunteered to serve as special assistant district attorney, to develop a case against Trump. | ||
| He was one of the main forces in pressuring Bragg to charge Trump. | ||
| Pomerantz, who donated to Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, resigned shortly after Bragg took office. | ||
| But according to the report, quote, when Bragg did not move quickly enough to file charges against President Trump, Pomerantz opted to go public, writing a book and orchestrating a pressure campaign to force Bragg into action, and it worked. | ||

If you jail me, I'll become stronger than you can possibly imagine. | |

Today is Monday, April 29th, 2024. | |
| Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and George W. Bush will all be jailed if the Supreme Court decides that there's no more presidential immunity. | ||
| That is the case that Donald Trump and his team are making right now, and they are dead right about it. | ||
| We'll be joined by Donald Trump's Attorney General, Matthew Whitaker, later on in the show to talk about it. | ||
| Biden bombs at the embarrassing, performative circle jerk that is the White House Correspondents Dinner. | ||
| And once again, as ever, with a Joe Biden event, there were more protesters outside than there were supporters of Joe Biden inside. | ||
| But this was the press. | ||
| And so there was very much a Joe Biden love fest going. | ||
| We keep our power up on this show. | ||
| The way we do so is obviously you in the brigade supporting us and Ladies and gentlemen, we drink our blackout coffee. | ||
| Our blackout coffee keeps us strong, keeps us going. | ||
| It's that sweet, dark juice that gets squeezed out of that coffee bean and gets put right into our veins. | ||
| We are not like Hunter Biden. | ||
| We do not need the extra stimulants from South America. | ||
| We just need our American coffee bean. | ||
| Blackout Coffee is made right here in America. | ||
| They're 100% committed to conservative values and American values, and they accept no compromise on taste and quality. | ||
| Family-owned, just like this company. | ||

| Stay awake, not woke. | ||
| All right, baby. | ||
| We got something very interesting from the archives today. | ||
| It's a reason why you tune in. | ||
| There are so few things that I think that like we have from a, from a like baseline level on a bunch of other programs. | ||
| And we have a lot of friends in this industry. | ||
| We've got a lot of people that we tune into. | ||
| We love Joe Rogan. | ||
| We are alive. | ||
| We are awake. | ||
| We are aware. | ||
| And we noticed patterns, and we were able to archive things in a way that I think really sets us apart. | ||
| And it's a huge credit to the production team on this program, but also a huge credit to, obviously, you, who I think, like, are able to also sort of see what's happening here. | ||
| Time is a flat circle, all right? | ||
| And there is a play that is going on right now that you've seen before. | ||
| You've seen it again and again and again, where they take the Republican... | ||
| Who either holds office right now or wishes to hold office and say that that Republican is particularly extreme, uniquely extreme, that the Republican Party is a great party, but it's just this one man that we must defeat that has really captured the party, holding it hostage as it were. | ||
| Now, that may sound exactly like what has been the drumbeat since the day Donald Trump left office or when Donald Trump was in office, before Donald Trump. | ||
| Gained office. | ||
| But this has been a playbook that has been used on Nixon. | ||
| We were able to go back to the archives. | ||
| This has been used on Nixon. | ||
| This has been used on Reagan. | ||
| This was used on Papa Bush. | ||
| And this was used on George W. Bush. | ||
| Arguably a Democrat by every measure. | ||
| George W. Bush would simply be a moderate Democrat today were he elected. | ||
| Given the policies and given the warmongering, given his love of blowing out budgets. | ||
| And given his love of the deep state, Joe Biden, like George W. Bush would effectively just be a Democrat operationally today. | ||
| But there was a time when Barack Obama, running from the left, decided to use a Alinsky-ite style playbook on George W. Bush. | ||
| And what he did was he cast George W. Bush as a particularly terrifying, radical, scary person who had captured the Republican Party. | ||
| Who had stolen what it means to actually be a Republican from the Republican Party and who was recklessly leading, effectively, a revolt, right? | ||
| And all we needed to do was rid ourselves of George W. Bush. | ||
| Again, it rings quite familiar. | ||
| Have a listen from this clip that is bordering on 20 years old to see how old this playbook is. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I do think there's a difference between the parties. | |
| But here's my belief, that I'm talking to voters. | ||
| And I think there are a lot of Republican voters out there, self-identified, who actually think that what the Bush administration has done has been damaging to the country. | ||
| And what I'm interested in is how do we build a working majority for change. | ||
| And if I start off with the premise that it's only self-identified Democrats who I'm speaking to. | ||
| Then I'm not going to get to where we need to go. | ||
| If I can describe it as not a blanket indictment of the Republican Party, but instead describe it as the Republican Party having been kidnapped by an incompetent, highly ideological subset of the Republican Party, then that means that I can still reach out to a whole bunch of Republican moderates who I think are hungry for change as well. | ||
| Now they do not. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, wow. | |
| Remember that kidnapped? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm trapped. | |
| Republican Party, the existential threat of George W. Bush and Tea Party Republicanism, it's the same playbook. | ||
| They're using the exact same playbook. | ||
| And when you take a step back and you look at what was argued in front of the Supreme Court, we were live last week for like four straight hours of the Supreme Court arguments, you realize that this is the same playbook now the DOJ is using. | ||
| Donald Trump. | ||
| We would never do this to another president. | ||
| We would never dare prosecute another president we disagree with. | ||
| It's just Donald Trump is a unique threat who's kidnapped through MAGA Republicanism, the Republican Party. | ||
| To show you how much blue shirt this all is and how they absolutely are using this type of language simply to weaponize power, how they don't believe any of it. | ||
| Why don't we go ahead and review how the Obamas treated George W. Bush, as soon as George W. Bush left office, acquiesced to every one of their requests to become a warmongering globalist, to just help destroy American hegemony abroad, to cuddle up to the Obamas, and to effectively help pass Obama's legislation. | ||
| Here's a good question. | ||
| Have you ever heard George W. Bush speak a word against Barack Obama? | ||
| Joe Biden? | ||
| Bill Clinton? | ||
| Like any of them? | ||
| You ever heard George W. Bush, like, come out and say, this is bad for the country? | ||
| Some of these horrific, immoral policies that we are passing, this is, like, terrible. | ||
| This is against conservatives. | ||
| You ever heard it? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| You ever heard nothing? | ||
| George W. Bush has sent multiple press releases against Donald Trump, and that should tell you everything. | ||
| The Uniparty is real. | ||
| watch the uniparty heal the moment that they get their result that they want, which is, of course, to strip Republicans of power. | ||
|

|
Glory, glory, hallelujah! | |
| She kind of likes my sense of humor, I guess. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, anybody who likes my sense of humor, I immediately like. | |
| I needle her a little bit, and we just took to each other. | ||
| I sat next to her at Nancy Reagan's memorial. | ||
| I can't remember where else I've sat next to her, but I probably have a few wisecracks. | ||
| And she seemed to like it okay. | ||
| And when I saw her, it was a genuine expression of affection. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Isn't that wonderful? | ||
| Isn't it remarkable to see? | ||
| To see the healing, the embrace, the cucked, dog-walking, ball gag, the leash that George W. Bush gets put on as soon as the left, the institutional left, the deep state, FBI, DOJ, police state left, get their result from George W. Bush, which is to get him down on all fours and walk him like a dog. | ||
| To make sure that George Bush never says a word against Barack Obama, never does another Republican campaign. | ||
| Did you ever see George Bush host a fundraiser for Donald Trump? | ||
| George Bush volunteered. | ||
| I mean, he's a living president, right? | ||
| Like typically living presidents go and speak at the conventions. | ||
| George Bush, did he volunteer to speak at a convention? | ||
| Has he ever held a fundraiser for Trump? | ||
| Has he ever even lifted a finger to help out the Republican Party? | ||
| No! | ||
| George Bush hasn't done anything! | ||
| For the Republican Party. | ||
| For the last 20 years, left office in 2008. | ||
| We are rolling on two decades. | ||
| And what was the tactic in order to ensure that George Bush is neutered forever? | ||
| And his legacy was destroyed? | ||
| Barack Obama trotting out the old, tired, but trusted playbook of, he's just a radical extremist. | ||
| The Republican Party is God. | ||
|
unidentified
|
George W. Bush is just a particularly radical extremist. | |
| We've got to stop it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We've got to stop it. | |
| And then we'll be good. | ||
| Are they good? | ||
| Now, it's the same thing. | ||
| MAGA Republicans, it's the same playbook. | ||
| Donald Trump's just a particularly scary person. | ||
| We're just going to prosecute and put in jail one president. | ||
| Don't worry. | ||
| It's just one guy. | ||
| Yeah, we did it to Nixon, and we did it to Reagan, and we did it to Daddy Bush, and we did it to George W. Bush, and we're doing it to Donald Trump, but we would never do it to another Republican. | ||
| Never! | ||
| Isn't that remarkable? | ||
| Isn't it remarkable, ladies and gentlemen, how this all works? | ||
| And it's always the same game, and so it's good to call that game out. | ||
| No, they will not stop with Donald Trump. | ||
| Yes, they will put more presidents in jail. | ||
| Yes, every single Republican that we want to be president in the future. | ||
| Who's your favorite person beside Trump? | ||
| Whoever's next, right? | ||
| Vivek, a lot of people like Vivek. | ||
| I live in the state of Florida. | ||
| Rhonda Sances, the great governor down here, okay? | ||
| Like, when Donald Trump is done running for office, who's your next favorite Republican? | ||
| There are some rising stars. | ||
| Obviously, a lot of people like. | ||
| Byron Donald is one of those guys. | ||
| Virtually all of them are friends of the show. | ||
| Come on the show. | ||
| They'll do it to them. | ||
| The next, they're setting the groundwork for every Republican president going to jail forever, right? | ||
| And maybe every president going to jail forever. | ||
| Because if they can do it to us, then we can do it to them, right? | ||
| There are far more Republican districts in this country with Republican DAs, right, than there are Democrat districts. | ||
| So, like, presumably when Joe Biden goes and does work here in Florida, which he did. | ||
| Right? | ||
| So Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, they leave office in 2016, and Joe Biden immediately started meddling with some health insurance Medicare company in Florida. | ||
| Where the hell is the prosecution in that? | ||
| The company collapsed? | ||
| They funded it with dirty money? | ||
| Like, where's the drive to investigate, get a grand jury impaneled, and then charge Joe Biden? | ||
| With the crimes that happened here in the state of Florida, and every single Democrat is lined up like that. | ||
| Bill Clinton, the Clinton Foundation is based in Little Rock, Arkansas. | ||
| The district attorney in Little Rock, Arkansas, the Alvin Bragg of Little Rock, Arkansas, is a MAGA supporter. | ||
| Very close with Sarah Sanders. | ||
| There's no limiting principles anymore, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| And so it's good. | ||
| You're going to open up a can of worms. | ||
| That's exactly what Eric Trump was saying. | ||
| This weekend. | ||
| So Eric Trump was on Maria Bartiromo's show, which I think is must-watch TV. | ||
| Fox News got rid of, I think, in one of the most cowardly acts ever in broadcast TV history. | ||
| And there's a long list of those. | ||
| Got rid of, it's like some of their best hosts, right? | ||
| Dan Bongino, Tucker Carlson, Steve Hilton. | ||
| These guys are incredible voices. | ||
| But Maria, who is just wonderful, remains and her show is a much to watch and the Trump's love going on the show. | ||
| And Eric Trump was on this weekend saying there is no more limiting principle here. | ||
| If there is no presidential immunity, then every president goes directly to prison. | ||
| What did you take away from what you heard from the Supreme Court this week? | ||
| And when do you expect a decision? | ||
| Well, God help us if they get it wrong. | ||
| That's what I take away. | ||
| I know the system very, very well. | ||
| And the only people who are going to benefit are big law firms in Washington, D.C. because they are going to go after every single president. | ||
| They'll start with Obama. | ||
| Fast and furious, right? | ||
| Where he gives 2,000 weapons to cartel members. | ||
| And then they'll go to Obama where he weaponized the IRS against conservatives. | ||
| They'll probably go after Joe Biden for having cocaine in the White House. | ||
| They'll go after Biden then for raiding his opponent's home. | ||
| They'll probably go after him after that. | ||
| For literally two weeks before the 2022 primaries, literally depleting the Petroleum National Reserves so he could lower gas prices by four cents and hopefully help him actually in the polls. | ||
| I mean, where do you want to stop? | ||
| Are they going to go after George Bush for lying about weapons of mass destruction? | ||
| Where does this stop, Maria? | ||
| The only people that are going to win... | ||
| Are going to be the lawyers in Washington, D.C. The floodgates are going to open, and I guarantee you, Joe Biden will not have one foot outside of the White House doors before they start going after him legally, ruthlessly. | ||
| Presidents need immunity in this country. | ||
| If they don't, their entire tenure as president is literally going to be filled in depositions and subpoenas like they've tried to do to my father for the last eight years. | ||
| We can't have this legal lawfare in this country. | ||
| We need a president. | ||
| To actually be able to function and run the United States of America. | ||
| I'm a big fan of Eric Trump. | ||
| Eric Trump is pretty close with our team. | ||
| We dropped a new Trump Cribs episode this weekend where we went to Trump Doral. | ||
| It is really remarkable to be given sort of a back. | ||
| Backstage, golden key access to the empire that Donald Trump's built. | ||
| It is an incredible business that Donald Trump has built. | ||
| We're honored to just have the relationships with the Trump family. | ||
| Eric, of course, manages these businesses and allows us to go do these mini documentaries on these cool properties. | ||
| He's just a sharp guy. | ||
| I mean, he's just like a good, honest person. | ||
| I mean, what they're doing by going after the Trump family is going after the very heart and soul of American entrepreneurship, ingenuity, building this business, cutting skyscrapers across New York and Chicago, or having 800 acres in downtown Miami, which is what we just toured this past weekend at Trump's Rural. | ||
| It is a remarkable company. | ||
| But Eric Trump makes a remarkable point there, which is, why not charge Joe Biden for the Coke in the White House? | ||
| Like, cocaine's illegal, right? | ||
| There's no place where Coke is legal. | ||
| Cocaine's illegal. | ||
| So, like, what are the limiting principles for going after Joe Biden for that? | ||
| Barack Obama killed an American teenager. | ||
| Anwar al-Awlaki was his name. | ||
| Barack Obama straight up killed an American teenager. | ||
| With a drone strike, without a trial, murdered him, and Obama ordered that strike personally. | ||
| So what's the limiting principle for murder? | ||
| It's remarkable. | ||
| The DOJ was arguing. | ||
| The DOJ was arguing last week, and many tuned in while we were live. | ||
| We were live for all four and a half hours of the argument, put up a lot of funny memes, but there was no laughing matter what they were talking about. | ||
| The DOJ lawyer says, yes, the American president can murder. | ||
| A U.S. citizen, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen abroad, but know a president can't lead a peaceful protest? | ||
| So Donald Trump did, on January 6th, illegal what Barack Obama did in murdering a teenager American without a trial. | ||
| That was okay. | ||
| We looked into that. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| That's horrifying, actually. | ||
| So protest against us is legal, but it's legal for us to murder you and your children. | ||
| I mean, what kind of world are they trying to create here? | ||
| Of course, Eric Trump bringing up that George W. Bush could be charged for any number of crimes. | ||
| George W. Bush, of course, starting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. | ||
| How much does that cost the American treasury, the American future? | ||
| You probably know somebody who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. | ||
| I certainly do. | ||
| Those men and women who came back carry the scars forever. | ||
| If they did come back... | ||
| I believe that there is at least a 5,000-person poll for the number of Americans slaughtered in those fields of combat. | ||
| And again, we continue to ask, for what objective, right? | ||
| For what objective? | ||
| It's something that the older you get and the more I think about my kids being draft-aged, the more I am... | ||
| So anti-war and so anti- the bloodlust that is the only monetizable monopoly that D.C. owns, which is starting new wars. | ||
| And George W. Bush was, of course, somebody who carried forth that charge full speed, right? | ||
| Start as many wars as possible, get as many people around Washington, D.C., as rich as possible. | ||
| And that's why the richest counties in America are right around Washington, D.C. Also. | ||
| There is a great argument to be made for Joe Biden murdering Americans. | ||
| Because Joe Biden just decided, pretty much on a late night applesauce stumble down the stairs, that he's just going to end the war in Afghanistan. | ||
| The withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan got 13 Americans killed. | ||
| Do you remember this time period? | ||
| We all knew it was going to happen. | ||
| We all knew that there was something horrible about to happen. | ||
| The disaster. | ||
| That was slow motion, the train wreck that was slow motion unfolding in Afghanistan. | ||
| And lo and behold, boom! | ||
| Then it happens. | ||
| Suicide bomb attack and 13 dead Americans. | ||
| Could Joe Biden be charged for that? | ||
| Here's Eric Trump. | ||
| So are you expecting that in June, a decision from the Supreme Court? | ||
| What are you expecting? | ||
| Well, I certainly hope that presidents have absolute immunity. | ||
| And if they don't... | ||
| They're not going to be able to function as presidents of the United States. | ||
| You're going to have a president that literally every single day. | ||
| Biden, hey, when they withdrew from Afghanistan, 13 service members were killed. | ||
| Is that manslaughter because he was incompetent? | ||
| I mean, where do you draw the line, Maria? | ||
| You better have presidential immunity because that's an awfully tough job. | ||
| Tough decisions are made every single day. | ||
| Mistakes are made, and presidents can't be prosecuted. | ||
| What could you prosecute Joe Biden for? | ||
| Well, you could prosecute him for crimes against humanity, not just for the American lives. | ||
| Remember this. | ||
| It's amazing how cruel this administration is. | ||
| You almost forget about these things. | ||
| They droned a family that was like aid workers and said they killed the terrorists. | ||
| So the Obama regime... | ||
| After 13 American service members died at their hands on their incompetence, heaped insult to injury by sending a drone to go murder a bunch more Afghanis who had nothing to do with this attack. | ||
| And then they lied to us and said that we got the terrorists. | ||
| We got them. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Multiple independent reviews showed they just blew up an apartment with families and children living in it. | ||
| They straight up lied to us. | ||
| Charge them at the Hague. | ||
| Drag Joe Biden in. | ||
| Should we live in a country where every single president gets criminally charged? | ||
| Does every single president that's living today deserve criminal charges? | ||
| You could argue yes. | ||
| We've done plenty of research on the Epstein docs with Bill Clinton. | ||
| Yes, you can actually have you absolutely charge that. | ||
| There's only one person who actually decided to begin exposing. | ||
| This universe. | ||
| Obviously, there's one man who decided to lock up Jeffrey Epstein. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein's been operating since the 90s. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein brought untold numbers of unidentified women into the Bill Clinton White House, something we never talk about. | ||
| Talk about him flying on the Lolita Express. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein was literally shuttling women into the White House under Bill Clinton. | ||
| We don't know what happened, but we have the White House records where it's Epstein and Mystery Woman. | ||
| Epstein, Mystery Woman. | ||
| Like, getting... | ||
| Pumped into the White House during the Clinton era. | ||
| So who knows? | ||
| But there was only one president that decided to lock the guy up. | ||
| In fact, Jeffrey Epstein was locked up during the Bush administration and was released. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Got a slap on the wrist for sex trafficking with minors. | ||
| That was his charges. | ||
| He should have been locked up forever. | ||
| But he got out. | ||
| How? | ||
| Why? | ||
| Oh, definitely not an intelligence asset honeypot. | ||
| The point is... | ||
| Is that the reason they want to put Trump in jail is because Trump was the first guy that jailed Epstein. | ||
| The reason they want to put Trump in prison is because Trump began ever so slightly to start peeling the onion layer back, to start like ripping back this awesome unchecked power that the super state has, the uniparty super state that cucks George W. Bush into being a little gimp dog for Michelle Obama to dog walk. | ||
| And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why Donald Trump is in court instead of campaigning. | ||
| Eric Trump says Donald Trump is campaigning from court. | ||
| And we'll cover recent polls in just a moment. | ||
| He's winning. | ||
| Watch. | ||
| I think this week there's a day off that the former president is expected to go campaign, but he has been unable to do the kind of campaigning that President Biden is doing. | ||
| But this week he will be going to what? | ||
| Michigan and Wisconsin? | ||
| On the one day off? | ||
| That's right. | ||
| He's going all over the place. | ||
| And his stamina, Maria, I've never seen anything like it in my life. | ||
| I mean, I've just never seen it. | ||
| He'll be in trial all day long, relentlessly being attacked by a corrupt judge, whose literally family is apparently profiting off of this whole thing. | ||
| Only to step out and go to events at bodegas and wake up and speak to union workers and go to Michigan and go to Pennsylvania and go to Ohio and go to all the other swing states. | ||
| The guy is really a remarkable human being and I love him to death and I'm proud of him and I think the whole world knows his backbone and his toughness and it's exactly who we need behind the Resolute desk in Washington, D.C. It's the exact person we need in the Oval Office. | ||
| Donald Trump posted a photo this weekend with a boxing phenom named Ryan Garcia. | ||
| And it does, in fact, look like Donald Trump is aging in reverse. | ||
| I mean, it is true. | ||
| It does seem like Donald Trump is absorbing this energy and then is, like, taking it. | ||
| Energy absorption and then maxing it. | ||
| He's maxing in the polls right now. | ||
| But let's go to the legal case just really quickly here. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz, who is without question one of the foremost leading prosecutors and wisest prosecutors in American history, you cannot argue that, is saying there is no case here against Trump. | ||
| This is backfiring. | ||
| This is not going to work out the way you think. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz. | ||
| I got to get your take on what's going on in this Manhattan DA's courtroom where Donald Trump has been spending all his days. | ||
| What is the crime? | ||
|
unidentified
|
There is no crime. | |
| That's why they're putting on people like Pecker talking about catch and kill. | ||
| They're putting on McDougal. | ||
| There's no crime. | ||
| And, you know, they ought to be very careful about this because the Supreme Court, the appellate court in Albany, just reversed Harvey Weinstein's conviction on the ground that they put in too much information that wasn't really relevant to the case. | ||
| And that's what's happening. | ||
| There is no crime in Manhattan. | ||
| You cannot figure out what the crime is. | ||
| That's why they're putting on all this evidence of non-crimes, trying to persuade the jury that catch and kill is a crime. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| Paying hush money is a crime. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| Putting a corporate statement is a misdemeanor barred by the statute of limitations. | ||
| You can't suddenly resurrect that and turn that into a crime by invoking a federal statute, which the federal government refused to invoke, and the federal election commission refused to invoke. | ||
| There is no crime. | ||
| That's why every American, whether you're a Democrat, should be opposed to what's going on in that Manhattan courtroom. | ||
| It's a scandal and it's a destruction of America's rule of law. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz is someone who is a Democrat. | ||
| He's not MAGA. | ||
| Alan Dershowitz, as far as I know, has never voted for Donald Trump and won't vote for Donald Trump. | ||
| He is just simply saying as a Harvard professor and as the guy who got OJ off, right? | ||
| There is no case. | ||
| There may be a case, again, for another Donald Trump raid to figure out if he has the fountain of youth. | ||
| This is the photo I was talking about. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| What is going on? | ||
| This is a photo took like a few hours ago. | ||
| What is going on with this man? | ||
| How is he doing this? | ||
| How is he aging in reverse? | ||
| He looks way better than I do. | ||
| I'm 37. Donald Trump's twice my age. | ||
| How is this possible? | ||
| Well, I got three kids under three. | ||
| Maybe that's how it's possible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look at this! | |
| Look at this guy! | ||
| You know what it looks like? | ||
| It looks like the wax statue of Donald Trump at Madame Tussauds. | ||
| That's what it looks like. | ||
| It looks like a really nicely done Hollywood prop of Donald Trump. | ||
| But that's the real thing. | ||
| This is the real photo. | ||
| Ryan Garcia posted these photos. | ||
| They are not. | ||
| Corrected or airbrushed. | ||
| And Donald Trump looks better than the boxer standing next to him that's maybe half his age or two-thirds younger than him. | ||
| Right? | ||
| 50 years younger than him. | ||
| Incredible. | ||
| Remarkable. | ||
| And this is in the midst of all of this. | ||
| In the midst of running for president. | ||
| In the midst of these people trying to destroy his business. | ||
| The cavalry over the hill. | ||
| We'll see, ladies and gentlemen, a friend of the show, Jim Jordan, saying there is no case. | ||
| There is no crime. | ||
| Well, Jim Jordan, we expect subpoenas for Fannie Willis. | ||
| We expect you to follow up with the subpoenas for Alvin Bragg and to use a little bit of the muscle, one seat, I guess, for Republicans, but you still are in charge of the Judiciary Committee. | ||
| This is all happening in the American judiciary. | ||
| So, chop, chop, let's go, Jordan. | ||
| There's no crime here, and when there's no crime there, there's no case. | ||
| That's why the Department of Justice didn't bring a case. | ||
| That's why the Federal Elections Committee didn't bring a case. | ||
| That's why Alvin Bragg's predecessor didn't bring the case. | ||
| And frankly, even Alvin Bragg, when he gets in office, although he campaigned on saying, oh, I went after Trump and I'm going to go after him, even he wouldn't bring the case because there's nothing there. | ||
| There's star witnesses, Michael Cohen, a convicted perjurer who came in front of Congress and lied six times in front of a congressional committee. | ||
| So, there's nothing there until... | ||
| Until two things happen, Maria. | ||
| One, President Trump announces he's running for president. | ||
| And then two, Mark Pomerantz, who had volunteered, who wasn't even paid. | ||
| He was so committed to going after President Trump, he didn't even take his salary. | ||
| He's working for Alvin Bragg. | ||
| He resigns, goes public, and writes a book. | ||
| That's what prompted Alvin Bragg to bring this case when there is no case and when there is no crime. | ||
| And our report lays all that out. | ||
| In fact, Pomerantz, we subpoenaed him and he fought it. | ||
| We went to court and the judge and the court says, no, you got to come testify. | ||
| So he comes and testifies and takes the fifth umpteen times. | ||
| But it's all political. | ||
| And again, as Eric Trump said earlier, I think the country sees it. | ||
| The country sees it. | ||
| We see you, Jim Jordan. | ||
| You are a friend of the show. | ||
| Make life uncomfortable for these people. | ||
| Make life uncomfortable. | ||
| Republicans have a congressional majority. | ||
| I don't care how thin it is. | ||
| You are still in charge of the judiciary. | ||
| You still hold the gavel. | ||
| Make life uncomfortable. | ||
| Jim Jordan mentions that Bragg, Jack Smith, and Fannie are interfering in the 2024 election. | ||
| Precisely correct. | ||
| We've never heard of the end of it. | ||
| We literally live inside of the psychotic Chardonnay-induced fever dream of Hillary Clinton losing in 2016, where Democrats screamed that James Comey interfered in the 2016 election by bringing forward investigations of Hillary Clinton and her use of email. | ||
| And they gave her, I mean, they obviously let her off every hook that they could possibly find. | ||
| There is no hook. | ||
| Hillary Clinton had dragged the seabed and she had every hook possible. | ||
| For a criminal case against her and for criminal charges against her, and they unhooked her from every single one of them. | ||
| Yet you never heard the end of the screaming about the interference in an election and, most importantly, about the Comey rule. | ||
| What was the Comey rule? | ||
| The Comey rule was we don't charge or investigate presidential candidates. | ||
| Where the hell did that go? | ||
| Endless amount. | ||
| We never stopped. | ||
| We've never heard the end of it. | ||
| The Kobe rule! | ||
| The Kobe rule! | ||
| We don't investigate presidential candidates! | ||
| Why'd you do that to Hillary? | ||
| Why'd you do that to Hillary? | ||
| And remember, they closed all the books as fast as possible. | ||
| Well, ladies and gentlemen, now Jim Jordan is saying that they've, of course, broken all of those rules, as Marxists always do. | ||
| What's Jim Jordan going to do about it? | ||
| They're interfering in the 2024 election. | ||
| When you look at what happened at the Supreme Court, and it looked like the arguments went very well for our side, when you look at what happened there, everyone's saying, oh, well, this is going to probably get sent back to a lower court, and they're going to sort through the facts, and that's going to take time, and there won't be a trial before the election. | ||
| All the mainstream media is talking about, oh, we're not going to have a trial before the election. | ||
| Well, why the heck does that matter? | ||
| I thought you should be focused on getting to the truth and getting to the facts. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| It just points out it's all political. | ||
| It's all political for these folks. | ||
| And here's the other thing, Maria. | ||
| The crime he's kind of trying to get to is, oh, President Trump was involved trying to, a conspiracy to obstruct the 2016 election. | ||
| And then Jack Smith is saying President Trump was involved in a conspiracy to interfere with the 2020 election. | ||
| Seems to me the truth really is Alvin Bragg and Jack Smith are in a conspiracy to impact the 2024 race. | ||
| And frankly, Fannie Willis is part of that effort as well. | ||
| That's what the American people see. | ||
| So the American people see it. | ||
| And, well, they are rewarding Donald Trump in the polls. | ||
| Donald Trump has never looked better in the polls. | ||
| Never. | ||
| We'll get to that in just a second. | ||
| But one final thing, because we had Julie Kelly on last week. | ||
| We'll get her on again this week. | ||
| Julie Kelly has done such incredible research on this specific subject. | ||
| She's an unbelievable reporter, but she is being proven correct in this. | ||
| New bombshell evidence emerges. | ||
| Was Trump set up in the classified document saga? | ||
| A new slew of documents have been unsealed. | ||
| This was late last night. | ||
| Late last night. | ||
| And so we'll bring Julie Kelly on to the program to talk about it. | ||
| We'll have Matt Whitaker, Trump's acting attorney general, on the program in just a moment to talk about this case against Trump. | ||
| But, ladies and gentlemen, Judge Eileen Cannon here in the classified documents case. | ||
| Remember, Joe Biden has too much dementia for his classified documents. | ||
| That was the argument. | ||
| Joe Biden, he puts his diaper on backwards in the morning. | ||
| He wanders around the White House at 2 a.m. in his diaper. | ||
| He eats his applesauce. | ||
| But we're going to... | ||
| because the guy doesn't have a functional brainstem. | ||
| That was the horror report. | ||
| That was wall to wall. | ||
| We did weeks on that. | ||
| Charge Donald Trump, who was president with documents? | ||
| Doesn't make any sense. | ||
| Something had to have happened. | ||
| And now we know what was happening. | ||
| Joe Biden's filthy administration was manipulating, negotiating, and corresponding with the National Archives in order to set Donald Trump up. | ||
| In a slew of new documents that have been released, brand new stuff, not the stuff we covered last week, which also show this. | ||
| You can see some really terrifying things. | ||
| The first thing is the testimony from an FBI agent who testifies that General Service Association had been in possession of Trump's boxes in Virginia before ordering Trump's team to come get them. | ||
| So there's an entire pallet full of boxes that have been held by the GSA somewhere outside of D.C. is dumped at Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| Apparently, these are the boxes that ended up containing the papers with classified markings. | ||
| I'll double-check the indictment, but I don't recall this event in the timeline, added the angry librarians. | ||
| Who ordered the FBI to raid Mar-a-Lago, but who was actually raiding Mar-a-Lago and what were they actually for? | ||
| What are the raids actually about? | ||
| A lot of smart people that we know are pointing to these classified CIA binders, the CIA binders that prove that they spied on Donald Trump, that they hacked into the phones and they hacked into the communications of the Trump team and they ordered that and that Barack Obama himself I personally sat in on that meeting along with Joe Biden and ordered the CIA to spy on his political enemy. | ||
| And that was the day that the Republic ended. | ||
| Because if you can spy, if you can, this is the Gestapo stuff, right? | ||
| This is the KGB stuff. | ||
| If you can spy on your political enemies, then of course you don't have a democracy. | ||
| We have something in this country. | ||
| It ain't a democracy, right? | ||
| So we're going to figure that out. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| What were they spying on? | ||
| They were spying on Donald Trump's cell phone. | ||
| I don't know if Patriot Mobile is spy-proof, but I can tell you this, it is certainly a company that does not fund the left and believes in free speech. | ||
| Now, there's bills to ban TikTok, and there's bills to try and curtail foreign influence. | ||
| At the same time, they're reauthorizing FISA, right, for warrantless spying on American citizens. | ||
| This is a big ball of wax to untangle, but here's what I know. | ||
| You have to have a cell phone. | ||
| You have to have a cell phone provider. | ||
| You should probably be using a VPN, to be quite honest. | ||
| But that cell phone provider should not be funding the left. | ||
| That is why I use Patriot Mobile. | ||
| And that is why our show is run by Patriot Mobile. | ||
| Patriot Mobile is a 100% based U.S. company that believes in free speech and can back you up when you need to stay connected, as we do all the time as we're traveling. | ||

| Okay, ladies and gentlemen, we do certainly have some very, very interesting news to get to, especially as it pertains to Donald Trump's polling. | ||
| Donald Trump has taken the biggest lead ever, the biggest lead ever on Joe Biden. | ||
| According to a new CNN poll, everyone has freaked. | ||
| Everyone is freaking out. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, on CNN about this. | ||
| But I did, since my producers just notified me that former Acting Attorney General Whitaker is ready to rock. | ||
| And he's a man who has appeared on CNN before, so maybe this would be something very fun to talk about. | ||
| Let's welcome Matthew Whitaker, former acting attorney general to the show. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's welcome Matthew Whitaker, former director of the show. | |
| Thank you so much for joining. | ||
| I didn't mean to throw the CNN barb in there for you, sir. | ||
| I just thought, why not? | ||
| You have plenty of friends over there. | ||
| They paid me pretty well for what I had to do, which was to be the only one Trump supporter in a panel of 16 people with Cooper. | ||
| It was tough, hard-earned money, but you know what? | ||
| Happy to do it. | ||
| That definitely, I mean, it definitely was a battle royale. | ||
| I remember those panels. | ||
| It really was. | ||
| It was you versus 16, I don't know, people that look like they're this close to starting an encampment at Columbia University. | ||
| You know what's different now with CNN? | ||
| They don't even have one. | ||
| Yes, that's right. | ||
| It is just a giant liberal sausage fest. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Anything. | ||
| I'll give anything to have you go on air one more time and just say that. | ||
| Just say that on air and see the reaction. | ||
| I would love to see Jake Tapper's reaction to that. | ||
| Anderson Cooper's reaction to that. | ||
| They would indeed have a meltdown for the ages. | ||
| There is a meltdown, though, happening for the ages across the left. | ||
| And that meltdown seems to be quite... | ||
| Quite basically threatening the cornerstones of the republic. | ||
| Obviously, as Donald Trump's former acting attorney general, you would know those cornerstones very, very well. | ||
| As a fellow Iowan, you know what made this country great, and that is a fair rule of law. | ||
| Donald Trump is not getting a fair, though, rule of law, is he? | ||
| No, and this is the real challenge. | ||
| If you think about all the touchstones of the American experiment, let's call it. | ||
| It's a republic. | ||
| But nonetheless, you know, we have the rule of law is foundational, equal protection under the law, equal application of the law. | ||
| All of those, the left has completely thrown out the window in the desire to get Donald Trump, and they will do whatever it takes, ignore. | ||
| And, you know, this is why, you know, sort of it's all related, but this is why the immunity case is in front of the Supreme Court right now, because the Department of Justice ignored. | ||
| Kind of our histories and traditions. | ||
| And they decided that, you know what, we're going to charge him with questionable crimes, but we're going to try it because we desperately want to get him. | ||
| So how do you prevent something like this from happening to every single president? | ||
| That seemed to be sort of the crux. | ||
| We were live for all four and a half hours of the Supreme Court arguments. | ||
| I found it unbelievably fascinating. | ||
| Yet, for someone in your position... | ||
| It's got to be really troubling because what I heard was the government argue that it's totally permissible for a president to drone strike a 16-year-old American without trial and kill him, but it's not permissible for a president to lead a peaceful protest. | ||
| And that seems like a horrifying precedent to be set and admission by our government. | ||
| Benny, can I put a footnote on that? | ||
| Please. | ||
| And they also said, just trust prosecutors. | ||
| They wear the white hat and can make these decisions best for you. | ||
| We've learned that lesson now, that prosecutors aren't like they used to be, wearing the white hat. | ||
| They're partisan. | ||
| And people like Jack Smith, for example, are willing to do whatever it takes to try to exercise their power. | ||
| I mean, look at how he was reversed 9-0 on the former governor of Virginia's case. | ||
| I mean, it's a very aggressive application of the law to people that they deem as their political enemies. | ||
| Can't do it. | ||
| They are doing it, and that's why we, again, why we're in the Supreme Court with the immunity question, because everyone understood what it was until Jack Smith came along. | ||
| So let's say, for sake of argument, that you served as Attorney General again. | ||
| How would you prevent this from happening? | ||
| Because quite frankly, the reality is that even though I know that Hillary Clinton deserves to go to prison, I... | ||
| I'm on the general side that maybe that's not the best thing, that every single time there's a churn of power, we put everybody else in prison. | ||
| Everyone that stood across from us, we put them in jail. | ||
| That's probably not best for the Republic, as much as it pains me to say so, because I was a big fan of the Locker Up chants. | ||
| But how would you prevent this vicious... | ||
| Horrific cycle that we're starting to descend into. | ||
| Benny, first of all, I think this is the best question anybody's asked me. | ||
| You know, I do a lot of media, as you know, and nobody's ever got to the crux of the question. | ||
| It's like, what does the future hold? | ||
| Because I see it as going down two paths. | ||
| There's either this kind of each party, to your point, goes after the other party when they're done serving and they've won an election, or we respect that the rule of law does matter. | ||
| That you can only charge people with crimes that the facts support. | ||
| And we also have to acknowledge that we have over-criminalized many things in the United States. | ||
| Let's take one of these President Trump cases. | ||
| He's being charged with crimes, you know, that came out of the Ku Klux Klan Act, coupled with a statute that was passed after and in the wake of Enron in order to prevent people from shredding documents. | ||
| That's how far afield these prosecutors have become. | ||
| And, you know, I just think... | ||
| And I've said before, I think prosecutors need to go down the well-worn path of the law. | ||
| That is, the statutes that have been applied to certain types of behavior. | ||
| There's case law on it. | ||
| We all agree that those are crimes. | ||
| We just can't go down this road of novel legal theories hoping that an appeals court or a Supreme Court will agree with our interpretation of it. | ||
| And we cannot have, we have to have people, statesmen and stateswomen, I think this is so important, that stand up. | ||
| And stand for something and stand up to their own parties, if necessary, and explain. | ||
| And I think Merrick Garland has done a terrible job of explaining why. | ||
| And the reason why he can't explain why he is going after Donald Trump is because he knows he is out way beyond where the natural extension of these laws should be. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And with every waking day, we find more and more overt or covert coordination between the Biden White House and the DOJ. | ||
| Now, this documents case, it seems like the fingerprints are all over it. | ||
| I mean, you could rewind the clock back to The New York Times literally publishing an article saying Biden wants Merrick Garland to charge Trump because he's a threat to democracy. | ||
| Someone's going to have to show me that in the criminal code. | ||
| But, you know, our founders, I think, would. | ||
| We'd be quite curious about that charge, considering that they staged a revolution. | ||
| But let's go to the documents case itself. | ||
| There is now, because of Judge Eileen Cannon revealing all these documents to the screaming, raging of Jack Smith, there is a preponderance of evidence of the DOJ having their fingerprints all over this prosecution. | ||
| Something that keeps coming up is this CIA binder about the operation to spy on Donald Trump, how it's gone missing. | ||
| Many people have come on our show saying that this might be what they wanted. | ||
| Have you seen anything like that? | ||
| In your role, obviously, you'd have a classified clearance. | ||
| Have you seen anything like that? | ||
| What's your make of this case? | ||
| Well, anything that I know that was classified, I can't talk about. | ||
| But what we do know is, to your point, is really this documents case came out of the White House calling the National Archives and saying... | ||
| It's been three or four months since Trump left, and don't you think that they kept documents that they shouldn't have? | ||
| I mean, and I'm paraphrasing, but that's some of the information we now have, that the White House was the one that has been driving this. | ||
| And remember, the number three person at the Department of Justice gave the opening statement at the Manhattan... | ||
| And so that should tell you everything you know. | ||
| This is all centrally coordinated. | ||
| This is all being run out of the White House. | ||
| And, you know, the thing that the left does very well is they all know how to dance to the music. | ||
| They all understand kind of what their charge is. | ||
| And so when, for example, to your point, when President Biden expressed frustration with Merrick Garland not doing cases against Trump, guess what happened? | ||
| Merrick Garland did two cases against Donald Trump. | ||
| You know, it's just, it's really, it's extraordinary. | ||
| And these are the things that the American people should care about. | ||
| I hope that they take this calculation as to sort of who started this food fight in the first place and as the left in their weaponization of the Department of Justice and really are institutions that require good people, not partisan hacks at their helm in order to make these difficult decisions that Continue the republic another 250 years and don't end it in a giant car wreck because they don't like one person. | ||
| There was one thing that I absolutely had to get to with you, Matt. | ||
| It's really, really important for us on this program because speaking of car wrecks, we have been live for every second of the Fannie Willis disqualification trials. | ||
| We have seen her wear her dress backwards, her American flag pin upside down. | ||
| We've seen her throw temper tantrums, literally throw papers at the prosecutor, get dismissed by the judge, get Nathan's hot dog taken off the case, and Big Fanny is left, you know, again, to freeze out in the open, but she's pressing forward, and I gotta get your take on Big Fanny's big spanking down in Georgia. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, two things. | ||
| I think she should have easily been disqualified, so I disagree with the judge's decision on that front. | ||
| But I also, if you read his opinion, it suggests a real avenue for reversal if it is appealed, because he essentially lays out all the factual basis for why she should be recused and why the entire office should be recused. | ||
| He just didn't do it himself. | ||
| And I think that, unfortunately, has to do with political pressure. | ||
| Right before he issued that opinion, he got an opponent, a Democrat, in his potential re-election. | ||
| They have retention and judicial elections in... | ||
| Georgia. | ||
| And so I think that, you know, I think at the end of the day, he bleaked. | ||
| He made a political calculation that maybe he could hang on to his, you know, cushy state court job, which I kind of say tongue-in-cheek because those state court judges have it very hard and, you know, do not have the resources of federal judges. | ||
| But all that being said is I think he really... | ||
| I think he tried to do a salamic resolution to cut the baby in half. | ||
| I don't think that's what was called for, especially based, you know, as you said, you watched those hearings, it was pretty obvious that she was wildly conflicted, had not only an appearance of conflict, but actual conflicts, and should have been disqualified from the case. | ||
| Final question I have for you is, given the fact that you have served as the acting attorney general for Donald Trump and based on all available polling evidence, I know that we are six months out from an election, but wow, Donald Trump is doing great right now and better than he has against Joe Biden in the last four years of polling. | ||
| So let's say that you were attorney general again. | ||
| Would you prosecute Joe Biden for the amount of cocaine in his White House? | ||
| Well, I saw what my friend Eric Trump said over the weekend, and I think you would have to, again, I go back to what I said, you have to follow the law and the evidence. | ||
| And, you know, I don't have access to any of that evidence. | ||
| Obviously, I wouldn't want to... | ||
| Pre-judge a case, we would go. | ||
| I think two things a prosecutor has to do. | ||
| A prosecutor has to take the law and apply the evidence, and according to the Department of Justice guidelines, and I agree with them, is you have to take a case that you are likely to win. | ||
| I also say that you have to prioritize the needs of the community, which therefore would be the needs of the United States. | ||
| And as our cities are burning down and violent crime is ravaging and people are getting murdered and all of the things that we're seeing, I think a lot of the priorities of the Department of Justice should be focused on helping our friends and our citizens that are under a complete violent crime surge. | ||
| I think you'd also have to address the fentanyl. | ||
| I think you'd have to address... | ||
| Fentanyl importation, which means you'd have to address the southern border and going after cartels and actually dismantling cartels that are killing over 100,000 of our fellow citizens. | ||
| I think there's a lot of priorities, and I think that's how I would do the job. | ||
| Again, President Trump is going to pick whoever he wants in those roles. | ||
| I supported him in the Iowa caucuses. | ||
| I was a very... | ||
| I'm a vocal supporter of him. | ||
| I know him personally. | ||
| And I think, you know, we just got to win in November. | ||
| And a lot of these things will ultimately just take care of themselves. | ||
| Since you brought it up, could Joe Biden be charged for human trafficking? | ||
| Well, again, you'd have to go to the facts and the evidence. | ||
| We have a lot of statutes, as I mentioned, I think 20,000 federal crimes, and you'd have to run any valuation of a case through the rubric of whether or not the evidence and the facts line up. | ||
| It's just, it's that simple. | ||
| And, you know, right now, I don't have access to the investigation information that would be necessary to make a charging call. | ||
| And the other thing is, you know, I think one of the things I would criticize the FBI for is a lot of their mistakes is when they brought these cases up to the headquarters and had leadership weigh in on them. | ||
| I think the same problem permeates the Department of Justice when you have leadership and not U.S. attorneys and AUSAs doing cases. | ||
| I think that's, you know, when you don't run cases, unlike Merrick Garland, you don't run cases out of the fifth floor at the Department of Justice and the AG's office. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Just since you brought it up, an addendum, a follow-up to what you just said. | ||
| You're very close with Donald Trump. | ||
| You speak with him regularly. | ||
| You've been a big endorser and worker with Donald Trump on all these legal cases and obviously served as his acting attorney general. | ||
| His state. | ||
| Right now, his mental state. | ||
| We put up pictures before you came on saying the guy's aging in reverse. | ||
| We can't believe the amount of energy he's got. | ||
| We cover all the times he does campaign rallies in the streets of New York. | ||
| Can you fill us in on sort of a behind-the-scenes with Trump? | ||
| How is he doing? | ||
| Well, and you forgot sometimes golf partner, but otherwise, you know, President Trump, obviously, he eats a lot of this like an energy bar. | ||
| I mean, you know, I've been up close and spent a lot of time with him. | ||
| He is tireless in his, and you're right, you know, maybe his diet and exercise routine are not. | ||
| What doctors would recommend. | ||
| But all that is he is energetic. | ||
| And he doesn't let this get him down. | ||
| I think most human beings would be in the corner sucking their thumbs. | ||
| Donald Trump is quite opposite. | ||
| He sees this fight for what it is, and he's willing to take it up. | ||
| And he'll just keep fighting until he wins. | ||
| Because at the end of the day, I do believe when he says that he's doing this for all of us Americans and not just himself, I believe that's the case. | ||
| Because he is just standing in the way. | ||
| The left... | ||
| Is desperate to get us into a socialist style, kind of a European Democrat socialist style of, you know, kind of where the big government provides lots of benefits to the politically advantaged and the politically connected, and the rest of Americans suffer. | ||
| They want to strangle off innovation. | ||
| They want to strangle off entrepreneurship. | ||
| They want big businesses to be in charge because they're easier to regulate. | ||
| And, you know, I just disagree with all of what the left stands for, and Donald Trump is the one to fight back against all of it. | ||
| Well, you speak to an Iowan, proud Iowan, and you yourself are an Iowan, and Donald Trump wins Iowa by 10 points over the last two elections, and I think he'll do just fine in 2024 in our home state. | ||
| Godspeed, Matt. | ||
| Thank you so much for being on the program. | ||
| It's good to finally join you, Benny. | ||
| Wishing you all the success, my friend. | ||
| All right, man. | ||

|
Rock and roll. | |
| Matthew Whitaker, the acting attorney general for Donald Trump, talking about how Donald Trump eats it all like an energy bar. | ||
| That was my favorite line. | ||
| Eats it like an energy bar. | ||
| Isn't that exactly what he's doing? | ||
| Precisely what he's doing. | ||
| Somebody who didn't have an energy bar was Joe Biden at the cretinous White House Correspondents Dinner this past weekend. | ||
| Now, if you're not familiar with the White House Correspondents Dinner, it is a performative, pedantic, humiliating ritual. | ||
| Where people who have ushered in the destruction of media and the corporate media sit around in a giant circle jerk and talk about how great they are even in the midst of mass layoffs, mass firing, and the destruction of their industry in the republic writ large, which they are tasked to protect. | ||
| And of course, they are the fourth estate in order to speak power for the people. | ||
| But instead, now the corporate media are protectorates of power, and you can see that fully on display in the White House Correspondents' Dinner. | ||
| The only people that would ever dare criticize Joe Biden at this dinner were found outside, where there were thousands of protesters leading FJB chants, not a MAGA hat in sight! | ||
| Interesting! | ||
| Let's watch. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's watch. | |
| Oh, my. | ||
| We actually went to a Joe Biden speech last week. | ||
| We have more interesting content coming up on all that. | ||
| But I got to tell you, like, we couldn't find any Biden supporters. | ||
| We found thousands of people protesting Joe Biden, some on the right, some on the left. | ||
| But we found no Joe Biden supporters. | ||
| That is for certain. | ||
| Now, saying F Joe Biden was something that happened outside. | ||
| Saying F Joe Biden is also something that happened inside of the White House correspondence dinner. | ||
| But it happened. | ||
| Ten years ago, in 2014, a comedian named Joel McHale, who I really like, I think he's pretty funny, stood up and mocked Joe Biden back when he was vice president. | ||
| The joke he told was, could you imagine there being a Joe Biden? | ||
| Could you imagine there being a Joe Biden presidency? | ||
| Now, ladies and gentlemen, Joel McHale made this joke again. | ||
| Now, who is the guy laughing at this joke? | ||
| Who is the person cracking up? | ||
| Barack Obama, which you will see in this clip. | ||
| Barack Obama is the man who was, you will see, like, wiping tears away at the joke about how Joe Biden is sitting at an Applebee's talking to a construction cone because he has dementia, and how, what a nightmare a Joe Biden presidency would be, Barack Obama agreeing in this remarkable clip. | ||

The Vice President isn't here tonight, not for security reasons. | |
| He just thought this event was being held at the Dulles Airport Applebee's. | ||
| Yes, right now, Joe is elbow deep in jalapeno poppers and talking to a construction cone he thinks is John Boehner. | ||
| Also true. | ||
| It's crazy to think that Joe Biden is only one heartbeat away from no one taking him seriously as president. | ||
| Sorry for that one. | ||
| Is Barack Obama being like, my God, could you imagine a Joe Biden presidency? | ||
| Fast forward. | ||
| Oh, my God. | ||
| Whatever to get Barack Obama as third term, right? | ||
| Guy never cared about America anyway. | ||
| So Joe Biden got a chance to stand up and make his own jokes. | ||
| And, well, they went like this. | ||
| Joe Biden making a joke about falling off a bike. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| It's been a year since I delivered this speech and my wife, Jill, was with me tonight, was worried how I do. | ||
| I told her, don't worry. | ||
| Just like riding a bike. | ||
| She's, that's what I'm worried about. | ||
|

|
Ah, ha, ha, ha. | |
| Here's Joe Biden talking about Bibles and how much he loves the Bible because he's definitely the one who's living out his Christian faith by calling Easter transit of visibility and then saying that abortion is a blessing abortion as a sacrament. | ||
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| I had a great stretch since the State of the Union. | ||
| But Donald has had a few tough days lately. | ||
| You might call it stormy weather. | ||
| What the hell? | ||
| Ah, okay. | ||
| The joke goes on, actually. | ||
| The joke goes on. | ||
| The full clip has him talking about Trump's trying to read the Bible that he's selling. | ||
| Got it? | ||
| And he said that this book's not for me, says Joe Biden. | ||
| Stormy weather! | ||
| Pretty embarrassing. | ||
| Actually, the only time that it was funny at all during the White House Correspondents was a guy that they got to do a Trump impersonation, which I thought was personally hilarious and was the only time that anybody was like, yeah, actually, this would be fun. | ||
| If Donald Trump stood up and said exactly this, it would be hilarious. | ||
| This had me in stitches. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| There's a Trump impersonator. | ||
| I'll get you his name here in just a second. | ||
| But he did a great job. | ||
| Have a listen. | ||

I will tell you, it is really a tremendous opportunity to be at the most failed dinner anybody's ever seen. | |
| Great to see you losers. | ||
| A lot of people say that. | ||
| Hello, everybody. | ||
| Why is it so quiet? | ||
| What's happening? | ||
| It's quieter than Sleepy Joe. | ||
| Hello, Joe. | ||
| How are you? | ||
| Great to see you. | ||
| We're going to debate, right? | ||
| That's what they're saying. | ||

There's a lot of great people. | |

| You have a lot of people that could potentially be a vice president. | ||
| You have Laura Trump, who's a lot better than Ronna McDonald. | ||
| Who doesn't love Ronna McDonald, right? | ||
| I'm loving it. | ||
| You like a Happy Meal, right? | ||
| You like that? | ||
| But I will tell you, this dinner... | ||
| You're so tight. | ||

We have to post our David Peckers on Snapchat now. | |
| That's what they're saying. | ||
| Let's face it, folks. | ||
| I'm on fire right now like the guy outside the courthouse, right? | ||
| Not soon enough. | ||
| Not soon enough. | ||
| But I will tell you, I am killing this dinner harder than Kristi Noem kills the puppies. | ||
| Moving on, please. | ||
| Yeah, producer Danny says they're terrified of laughing and offending their masters. | ||
| That's exactly correct. | ||
| Were their masters awake? | ||
| Were their masters? | ||
| Presumably they were all there to impress Joe Biden. | ||
| What was Joe Biden doing when he wasn't giving a speech? | ||
| Well, this is actually what Joe Biden was doing. | ||
| Here is a close-up. | ||
| There's no audio on this clip, but this is a close-up of Joe Biden versus Salad. | ||
| So this is the man who's supposed to debate with Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin. | ||
| Joe Biden can barely crack the dinner roll. | ||
| Here he is struggling to crack the dinner roll. | ||
| And then you'll see Joe Biden uses the dinner roll to scoop up his salad. | ||
| Look. | ||
| Look. | ||
| He can barely get the... | ||
| There he goes. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He can barely get the salad. | |
| Joe Biden versus salad. | ||
| He can't chew. | ||
| He's speaking with his mouth full, and he's not able to, he doesn't have the strength to actually pull apart the role. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| The funniest thing, actually, was just the live shot of Joe Biden during the dinner. | ||
| Joe Biden was very, very sleepy. | ||
| I am often very sleepy, and that's obviously why I need my caffeine in the morning. | ||
| I'm sleepy because we got three kids under the age of three, as you know, and they are up all night long, and that is why I use beam. | ||
| Dream, sleep. | ||
| As a father of young children, gotta tell you, don't get a lot of sleep. | ||
| We are working a lot on this program, and we are sleeping very, very little. | ||
| So when I do have time to sleep, I want to make sure that I fall asleep and stay asleep, and that is why I use Beam. | ||
| It's a delicious, easy part of my nighttime routine. | ||
| I mix it up with milk or hot water and get ready for bed, and it puts me out like Joe Biden. | ||

| Okay, ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump taking biggest lead ever. | ||
| We've been teasing this story for the entire show. | ||
| Donald Trump in a massive lead now for the presidency. | ||
| The biggest lead he has ever had. | ||
| President Donald Trump opened up his biggest lead ever. | ||
| Captured in the CNN poll for the American electorate. | ||
| This is, of course, a fake poll that over-indexes leftists. | ||
| The reason why is because the way polling is done is they call people. | ||
| These are live calls. | ||
| And they say, hi, it's CNN. | ||
| We want to ask you a question. | ||
| If CNN called you, if a pollster from CNN called your phone, would you answer honestly? | ||
| This is why we say it's fake polls. | ||
| This is why we say they're fake polls. | ||
| Because Republicans wouldn't answer honestly. | ||
| Because the corporate press, they do not trust. | ||
| And so they over-index leftists and under-index Republicans, and that's why this poll is actually worse for Joe Biden than it actually shows. | ||
| But here's what it shows. | ||
| Trump, at 49%, is six points ahead of Biden's 43% when the two are polled head-to-head. | ||
| Get a load of this. | ||
| There are third-party candidates all across the country that are getting into the race, either have gotten into the race or getting onto the ballot. | ||
| It's very important to get them on the ballot, right? | ||
| Robert F. Kennedy, obviously, is a big one, but also Jill Stein, Cornel West. | ||
| And they are all running from the far left of Joe Biden and are taking away the Hamas whole vote and the psychotic environmentalist vote, right, that believes that Joe Biden should, like, ban all oil. | ||
| That everyone, you know, that the only people that really love the country are Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Barack Obama. | ||
| The only people that really take the climate change seriously are all the guys with the beach houses right on the water. | ||
| They're the only ones who take climate change seriously. | ||
| John Kerry, beach house on the water. | ||
| Leonardo DiCaprio, multiple beach houses on the water. | ||
| Barack Obama, multiple beach houses on the water, including one where he's like destroying half of a Hawaiian island to build himself a little palatial mansion. | ||
| Those are the only people that take global warming and rising sea levels seriously, okay? | ||
| So remember that, kids. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| When you have third party, the polling gets far worse for Joe Biden. | ||
| In a multiple candidate scenario, Trump is at 42%. | ||
| Biden is down to 33%. | ||
| Trump is up 10 points on Joe Biden. | ||
| Goodness gracious. | ||
| It's an astounding nine-point lead for Trump nationally. | ||
| Astonishing number. | ||
| That if it were true, would signal the former president on track for an Electoral College romp. | ||
| Now, here's what the Electoral College would look like. | ||
| We have the map up, ladies and gentlemen, of what the Electoral College would effectively look like. | ||
| Here it is, 312. | ||
| So given the CNN polling, this is a CNN polling. | ||
| This isn't like, you know, I don't know, Daily Wire, Fox News, Breitbart poll. | ||
| This is a CNN poll. | ||
| This is what the election looks like. | ||
| In a CNN poll, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, obviously Florida, all going Trump and Trump winning by nearly 100 electoral votes. | ||
| So from our screen, please, to God's ears, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| So here is the most recent CNN poll reaction on air. | ||
| You heard Matthew Whitaker call CNN a leftist sausage fest. | ||
| Here are some very spicy sausages coming off the grill at CNN when they read these polls live on air. | ||
|

|
Our new poll, which was conducted by SSRS, finds Trump is leading Biden, who has ample work to do with his base and with independent voters who are breaking to his GOP rival. | |
| In a head-to-head race, 49% of voters say they'd pick Trump for president. | ||
| Compared to 43% for Biden. | ||
| That's a nine-point Trump advantage with independent voters. | ||
| Add in third-party candidates and Trump's lead jumps even more. | ||
| He has 42% to Biden's 33% and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. gets 16% of the vote. | ||
| Our poll also underscores the challenges of incumbency and that voters, four years later, have a better view of Trump's presidency compared to Biden's. | ||
| 55% say Trump's time in office was a success, with only 39% saying the same about Biden's presidency. | ||
| This is one of the most amazing things that happens. | ||
| You know, maybe it's happened to you. | ||
| You ever had, like, a relationship, got destroyed, right? | ||
| You know, an ex-girlfriend, and you're like, ah, man, I don't know, man. | ||
| Maybe that was the one, right? | ||
| That's what every rom-com is written about, right? | ||
| Every rom-com in Hollywood history is written about that kind of dynamic inside the human soul. | ||
| This is what's happening with Donald Trump. | ||
| Donald Trump is the hot ex-girlfriend, ex-boyfriend of this country. | ||
| And you knew you had it better. | ||
| You knew! | ||
| You lost the one. | ||
| You knew it. | ||
| That's what the polling is showing. | ||
| The polling is showing, and this is dynamic and we've been predicting this for a very long time, that Donald Trump will look so much better. | ||
| The farther you get away from the Trump presidency, the better it's going to look. | ||
| And that is proving out in every single poll. | ||
| But especially like a New York Times poll that was released on CNN poll showing that. | ||
| But a New York Times poll, talk about a rigged poll. | ||
| They're showing that a predominant 20 point Donald Trump wins by 20 points on did you have it better? | ||
| Which means it should be a landslide romp for Donald Trump in the Electoral College. | ||
| So please let it happen. | ||
| Please let it happen. | ||
| All the more reason. | ||
| For Donald Trump to pick a correct vice president. | ||
| Now, ladies and gentlemen, we have multiple reports out this morning about sort of Donald Trump testing VPs. | ||
| And there's a name in here that, quite frankly, shocked us. | ||
| There's a guy named Doug Burgum, ladies and gentlemen, who's the governor of North Dakota, ran against Donald Trump in the 2024 election, got... | ||
| Funny giant calipiter eyes, but he's a former executive and tech CEO, governor of North Dakota. | ||
| And it says that Doug Burgum is quickly moving up Trump's list of possible vice presidential picks. | ||
| Trump tends to sort of like these... | ||
| That's the right way to say this. | ||
| Trump knows that he's got all the spice and pizzazz, and he picks these Mike Pence-style guys to like... | ||
| Be the very, like, muddled center stabilizing forces. | ||
| And Doug Burgum would certainly be that. | ||
| So if that's what they're looking for, it'd be hard to find somebody better than Doug Burgum. | ||
| He's very, very wealthy. | ||
| He's independent. | ||
| He's been a very successful governor of a very dark red state. | ||
| I don't know much about him. | ||
| Never met him. | ||
| But I'm not, like, repulsed at that. | ||
| I'm not excited by it. | ||
| I hope it doesn't happen. | ||
| Personally, I'd say go for broke instead. | ||
| You'd have, like, the left would have no answer for, like, a, don't come for me here, okay? | ||
| Don't come for me. | ||
| I know there's a lot of people that don't like Marco Rubio, but, like, the left would have no answer for, like, a Marco Rubio on the campaign trail speaking Spanish, like, versus Kamala Harris. | ||
| I mean, could you imagine? | ||
| Left would have no answer for a Vivek Rod Swamy or a Byron Donalds on the campaign trail. | ||
| What would they say? | ||
| What race card would Kamala Harris use against Vivek or Byron? | ||
| Tell me, please, all ears. | ||
| So it's like very, very interesting and quite critical, the play here. | ||
| Because I do believe that if Donald Trump picks the wrong vice president, that they'll immediately impeach him and go for the vice president. | ||
| They'll immediately try and put him in jail and go for the vice president, right? | ||
| If he picks the wrong guy, you got to have an insurance policy. | ||
| That vice president, you don't want President Vivek, do you? | ||
| Right? | ||
| Like, right? | ||
| I mean, we certainly do. | ||
| But if you're talking about the left, so you've got to be thoughtful here. | ||
| Now, why then is Donald Trump meeting with Ron DeSantis? | ||
| This is super curious. | ||
| This is breaking news from yesterday, late yesterday, report DeSantis and Trump met in Miami. | ||
| Uh-oh, what's this about? | ||
| Former President Donald Trump and Republican Governor Iranisatis reportedly met in Miami on Sunday when they settled their political differences and discussed fundraising. | ||
| Former President and Florida Governor crossed swords over the past primary. | ||
| When the two were competing for the coveted GOP presidential nomination, leading some to strain, leading some strain between the two campaigns and supporters. | ||
| That's understated, obviously. | ||
| The massive civil war was really not against Nikki Haley and Donald Trump. | ||
| It was against DeSantis and Donald Trump. | ||
| And DeSantis obviously landed some blows. | ||
| Donald Trump trumped and trounced everybody in all these primaries. | ||
| DeSantis dropped out before New Hampshire, right? | ||
| Before New Hampshire. | ||
| DeSantis drops out before New Hampshire, endorses Donald Trump, says this is the right thing to do. | ||
| He's our party's nominee. | ||
| And then there's been like this very slow mend, right, that's been going on. | ||
| And now it looks like it's mended completely. | ||
| The hours-long meeting brokered by political allies, hoping to chill what was a hot rivalry, resulted in DeSantis agreeing to help Trump. | ||
| DeSantis' network of donors and influence among notable conservatives wary of Trump could prove a major boon for the presumptive nominee's campaign. | ||
| Trump has consistently fallen behind Joe Biden in fundraising. | ||
| The men have reportedly not spoken since DeSantis dropped out of the GOP presidential race in January. | ||
| DeSantis failed to capitalize on high expectations and a lot of money. | ||
| Man, DeSantis raised $100 million, I think. | ||
| I think. | ||
| I don't think he spent $100 million. | ||
| I'm not sure. | ||
| But he raised a lot of money. | ||
| DeSantis can raise money. | ||
| Could DeSantis be the vice presidential candidate? | ||
| I'm just asking questions. | ||
| Okay, I'm just asking questions. | ||
| My take on all this was let them fight, obviously, right? | ||
| My take on all this from the get was the battle will be won, okay? | ||
| And then it's time to unite and win. | ||
| And so this is the take. | ||
| And most importantly, Donald Trump's the one who said that DeSantis was on his short list. | ||
| Donald Trump in an interview with Laura Trump said, I'm sorry, correction, Laura Ingram on Fox. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Not going to weigh in here. | ||
| You know, you know me. | ||
| Muscling. | ||
| Come on, Vibank. | ||
| I'm starting to like kind of maybe see like the kind of see like the Marco Rubio maybe value on the trail. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I can't imagine DeSantis being picked as VP because the two of them were really at each other's throats. | ||
| However, Donald Trump didn't pick Ted Cruz. | ||
| To be his attorney general, which I think was possibly the biggest mistake of the first term. | ||
| And people who know have told me that. | ||
| Yeah, DeSantis raised $154 million for his race. | ||
| $154 million. | ||
| DeSantis raised a lot of money for his race in 2024. | ||
| So maybe the biggest mistake. | ||
| Maybe the biggest mistake was Donald Trump. | ||
| Sort of bringing the primary into his personnel decisions and choosing Jeff Sessions, who is just one of, like, the, again, one of the gimp crew, Republican, like, gimp boy crews, like, you've never seen a weaker attorney general than Jeff Sessions. | ||
| Oh, Russiagate, Russiagate, Jeff Sessions! | ||
| Remember, Jeff, you once had a Russian vodka martini. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, I gotta recuse myself, recuse, recuse, recuse! | |
| Yeah. | ||
| So, Ted Cruz would have never done that. | ||
| Donald Trump, I think not, again, Donald Trump running a perfect campaign. | ||
| He's running a perfect campaign. | ||
| Not making the same mistakes, bringing in guys like DeSantis, I think uniting and winning is the best strategy, quite frankly. | ||
| Here's Fox, who's of course very close with DeSantis, talking about what DeSantis would bring to Team Trump, vice versa. | ||
| The Republican part, as you see with Ron DeSantis, who is the most popular Republican governor in the country right now, him and Greg Abbott, as they start to come together, this is why the Democrats are focusing so much on prosecuting the former president. | ||
| Because if you can paint him as the criminal in the battle, look at all the numbers. | ||
| Joe Biden is losing on every single issue when it comes to the economy, the border, inflation, every single thing. | ||
| But the one thing that they think that can change this for them is making They're making Donald Trump a convicted felon. | ||
| That's why they're using the court system to usurp democracy right now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What I find unbelievable is they keep saying that Joe Biden has nothing to do with this. | |
| What do you mean he has nothing to do with it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Politico reported a year ago that he's upset at Merrick Garland for not picking up on the prosecution. | |
| And that was Politico that reported that. | ||
| And Matt Colangelo was running this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He left the president's justice department to go lead this prosecution and resurrect it all. | |
| So, I mean, there's direct links between the Biden administration. | ||
| And he referred to it last night. | ||
| Defani, as well as Wade, at the White House, that they were coordinating about that case in Atlanta. | ||
| So, I mean, you can go down the list to find the coordination from this White House and the administration. | ||
| And the Democratic Party, what they said... | ||
| Letitia James on the campaign trail of going after Donald Trump as a campaign promise. | ||
| Well, ultimately, Trump does need money, so it'll be interesting to see if the donors who had supported Ron DeSantis to the tune of, I think, $200 million he had in his war chest, if they're going to open their wallets for Donald Trump. | ||
| I think on this program I'm going to ban people saying Fonny. | ||
| Fonny wants us to say Fonny. | ||
| We shall not say Fonny. | ||
| They're saying Fonny. | ||
| It is not Fonny. | ||
| It is not French. | ||
| It's Big Fanny Willis, okay? | ||
| And they're saying, much like Big Fanny Willis had piles of cash everywhere, that Ron DeSantis could muscle in piles of cash into Donald Trump's war chest. | ||
| Now, Ron DeSantis is, we've done some phone calls down here, Ron DeSantis is term limited. | ||
| So, Ron DeSantis is two years into his last term here. | ||
| Could Ron DeSantis effectively go into the Trump administration and serve? | ||
| As, I don't know, Department of Defense, Department of Education. | ||
| I've said it before and I'll say it again. | ||
| Ron DeSantis is the most effective Republican governor in my lifetime. | ||
| It's hard to really argue that. | ||
| I moved my family down here based on that, like, based on that sort of protection arc. | ||
| And I have no complaints about, I think he made possibly one of the worst presidential candidates of all time, given the amount of hype versus the delivery. | ||
| That's separate. | ||
| He's one of the best governors of all time. | ||
| And down here in Tampa, he got rid of the Soros prosecutor. | ||
| So I'm, like, deeply thankful for that. | ||
| My kids can play at the local parks without, like, druggies, junkies, or all manner of criminals and refuse and the kind of garbage that, like, we saw in San Francisco. | ||
| He was robbed in San Francisco last week. | ||
| My kids can play at the parks. | ||
| We have a good, clean, safe city. | ||
| Because Ron DeSantis is like, nope, actually, all power comes from the governor in the state, and you're out of here, to the Soros prosecutor. | ||
| What if they did it to every Soros prosecutor? | ||
| Well, then, there'd be no Trump, no Donald Trump prosecutions would be going on right now. | ||
| Alan Bragg, Soros prosecutor. | ||
| Fannie Willis, Soros prosecutor. | ||
| Like, what's happening in Arizona? | ||
| The fraudulence and embarrassment that's happening in Arizona? | ||
| These are all Soros prosecutors. | ||
| What if that happened everywhere? | ||
| What if you had Robert Barron? | ||
| There'd be no such thing as a Soros prosecutor across the country. | ||
| So it'd be very, very interesting to see. | ||
| I look forward to, obviously, people uniting and winning. | ||
| That is all we care about. | ||
| Unite and win on this program. | ||
| Okay, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Monday! | ||
| Gunday! | ||
| Here we go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here we go. | |
| So, ladies and gentlemen, Monday Gunday, brought to you by Spikes Tactical, the AR-15 of the Johnson household. | ||
| A federal judge finds a Pennsylvania law barring 18 to 20-year-olds from concealed carry unconstitutional. | ||
| All gun laws are unconstitutional, but especially for those young men that could serve in the armed forces, I don't really understand this. | ||
| So a draft happens, they're going to draft you at 18, they're going to put a firearm in your hands, yet if you're free to go fight some globalist war... | ||
| In some godforsaken, go die in some godforsaken desert, yet at home, the home of the free, young men or young women would not be able to have a right to a firearm when they're legal age? | ||
| When they're of legal age? | ||
| Don't make no sense. | ||
| If you read the Constitution and you read the way the Second Amendment is written, well, yeah, that's unconstitutional. | ||
| And a judge, a U.S. district judge, by the way, So that's a pretty high-up ruling there, has found that. | ||
| U.S. District Judge William S. Stickman decided this week against Pennsylvania's prohibition of 18 to 20-year-olds, securing a concealed carry permit in order to be armed for their persons and for self-defense. | ||
| The lawsuit, Laura v. | ||
| Vanek, was brought to the Second Amendment Foundation Firearm Carry Coalition and three private citizens. | ||
| The part of the Pennsylvania Section Code that permits persons 21 and older may apply for a carry license. | ||
| I said that the police commissioner and active enforcement for permanent issuance is unconstitutional, limiting them by age. | ||
| And the judge agreed. | ||
| And so another win for the Second Amendment. | ||
| Another massive win for the Second Amendment, something that you should find incredibly encouraging, is that the Second Amendment is romping right now. | ||
| I think we have something like 30 states. | ||
| That have concealed carry or constitutional carry. | ||
| Like, 40 states have concealed carry or some type of constitutional carry. | ||
| Second Amendment and gun rights are expanding. | ||
| It's one of those fascinating issues that because of a couple key rulings in the Supreme Court and because of the Second Amendment and because of the genius of our founders, it's like expanding across the country. | ||
| Every freedom seems to be contracting right now. | ||
| The right to a firearm is expanding. | ||
| And that's why we are thankful for Spikes Tactical. | ||
| You see our sweet gun wall behind me. | ||
| That is the Spikes Tactical gun wall, the AR-15, the official AR-15 of the Johnson family. | ||
| You know, don't come a-knocking, right? | ||
| If you want to stay walking. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay? | |
| Everyone on my block is armed. | ||
| It's like, I'm amazing. | ||
| I love living in Florida. | ||
| Everyone on the block is armed and everyone is ready to go. | ||
| We wish to be armed, obviously. | ||
| Well. | ||
| For physical battles, if something is visited upon us, if violence is visited upon us, we wish violence on no man. | ||
| But be prepared, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| You live in a sunken world, but you also want to be spiritually prepared. | ||
| And that is why we have a verse of the day every single show. | ||
| For the Lord your God is living among you. | ||
| He's a mighty Savior. | ||
| He'll take delight in your gladness. | ||
| This is love. | ||
| He will calm all fears. | ||
| He'll rejoice with joyful songs from Zephaniah 317. | ||
| He's living, God is living among you, and he's going to calm your fears. | ||
| Fear not is found 365 times in the Bible. | ||
| Well, that's one for every day. | ||
