Music playing | |
| Music playing | ||
| Music playing Really incredible and you really just sort of lay it all out. | ||
| We tend to think of President Trump as a transactional president. | ||
| That's certainly been his reputation. | ||
| But I think the more you watch what's happening, not just here at the GCC summit, but throughout his presidency, it's only been 100 days here, in Trump 2.0, he's really trying to be a transformational president. | ||
| We're talking about someone who's, yes, trying to foment peace between Ukraine and Russia, between India and Pakistan. | ||
| And now he's talking about really changing the way things operate in the Middle East. | ||
| Of course, at the GCC today, he talked about the lifting of sanctions on Syria. | ||
| As I got in my readout, thanks to Harrison Fields and others, he was thanked by the president of Turkey and, of course, the crown prince himself. | ||
| This idea that Syria can stand on its own two feet and with help? | ||
| We're currently exploring normalizing relations with Syria's new government, as you know. | ||
| Beginning with my meeting with President Ahmed al-Shara, also ordering the cessation of sanctions against Syria to give them a fresh start. | ||
| It gives them a chance for greatness. | ||
| The sanctions were really crippling, very powerful. | ||
| The Crown Prince, by the way, called the President's decision to lift the sanctions courageous. | ||
| Meantime, the President also talked about some of the ideas of halting hostilities. | ||
| I mentioned Russia and Ukraine. | ||
| I mentioned, obviously, India and Pakistan, but also what's been happening over in Gaza, this idea that if Israel and the folks who are in Gaza can somehow come together and foment a peace, This will not only change the region, it could change the world. | ||
| In Gaza, my administration shares the hope of so many in this region for future of safety and dignity of the Palestinian people. | ||
| But that cannot happen as long as Gaza's leaders take delight in raping, torturing, and murdering innocent people. | ||
| Can't have it. | ||
| Ultimately, all hostages of all nationalities must be released as... | ||
| A stepping stone to peace, and I think it's going to be happening. | ||
| A lot of things are happening. | ||
| A lot of very positive things are happening on every front. | ||
| Now, as you mentioned, Carly, the president is now on the move, or shortly will be. | ||
| Next up, it's a trip to Qatar. | ||
| That's the next stop in this trip. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Although... | |
| There have been some rumblings that perhaps he could make a stop to see you down, Alexander, in Israel, which would certainly be apropos, given what has happened to that young man and the incredible work to bring him home safely. | ||
| An interesting time to say the least, guys. | ||
|

|
Guess what? | |
| Hey! | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Woo! | ||
| Woo! | ||
| What is that sound? | ||
| It's the sound of a landlouder. | ||
| What have we found? | ||
| It's our cut of brothers from another mother. | ||
| Ahoy, my brothers, your marvelous perfecto. | ||
| Welcome aboard. | ||
| Join us for more whiskey in the jar. | ||
| Oh! | ||
| And guess what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Guess what? | |
| Everything will be okay. | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Day, what day? | ||
| It is, it's hump day. | ||
| Get it off! | ||
| God heut, glad, glad, glad, glad Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| You got a legitimate howling belly laugh from me, Jerry. | ||
| Jerry, who also, I guess, works in Saudi Arabia because he was shouted out yesterday on the stream. | ||
| Everyone's like, Jerry, come here, Jerry! | ||
| Jerry, the meme maker. | ||
| On this program, the only stream with a full-time meme maker to bring you beautiful hump day imagery like that. | ||
| Today is hump day. | ||
| Today is Wednesday, May 14th, 2025. | ||
| We are live, so is President Trump. | ||
| We're going to get to that in just a second, but damn, Jerry! | ||
| Jerry was given a gift today. | ||
| President Trump has a camel motorcade. | ||
| We're going to get to all of this. | ||
| There have been big things happening since 6 a.m. Eastern Standard Time, and we're going to cover all of it. | ||
| Camel motor... | ||
| I'm sorry, did you hear that? | ||
| A camel motorcade with a Cybertruck in it. | ||
| Do you understand the levels of back in which we are? | ||
| We have never been so back. | ||
| Epic things are happening. | ||
| Incredible things are happening, and we're going to cover all of it live with aplomb, as they say. | ||
| But well done, Jerry. | ||
| Man, uh... | ||
| Holy smokes. | ||
| My Qatar... | ||
| What is it? | ||
| My Qatar brother from another mother? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is going on? | |
| There's actual camels in our hump day episode today. | ||
| Trump arrives in Qatar welcomed like a conquering hero king with a camel motorcade. | ||
| U.S. releases sanctions on Syria and President Trump meets with the Syrian leader, somebody who had a bounty on his head for $10 million, just a few... | ||
| Short months ago, now President Trump's meeting with him, the world is a-changing, and that's a good thing. | ||
| We're going to talk about all of that. | ||
| Senator Schmidt on our show today, one of the best senators, and Mike Benz is going to explain the tectonic shifts that are happening across the world in this region. | ||
| Mike Benz, somebody who's worked and traveled in this region, also worked for the State Department, really understands what's going on here, and we're going to dive deep with Mike on the show. | ||
| Today, my name is Benny Johnson, and this is The Benny Show. | ||
| Quick show note here before we cut to Trump Live right now, changing the entire dynamics of the globe. | ||
| Of course, no president has ever visited Qatar, and so we're going to tune in live to President Trump, plus a press conference that happened very early in the morning, like 2 a.m. our time, but we're going to bring it to you, ladies and gentlemen, aboard Air Force One. | ||
| Some incredible iconography and imagery here, and a big question that we have for you. | ||
| Pinned to the top of the chat. | ||
| Well, at least it should be. | ||
| ALX! | ||
| The poll for today. | ||
| Do you want our show to start at 10 a.m. Eastern Standard Time every single day? | ||
| This has been an exciting couple of days, and we've been starting early, between 9 and 10, in order to cover President Trump live, as we will be covering today. | ||
| Do you wish for our stream to start at 10 a.m.? | ||
| This might actually work out better for us because there's a lot of news that happens in this hour. | ||
| We want to take it live. | ||
| We have the best production team on the planet. | ||
| I'm not trying to be braggadocious here. | ||
| We've endeavored to build and invest in the best production team so that you never miss anything. | ||
| But there are things that happen all the time, and it's very dynamic. | ||
| And so let us know. | ||
| There's going to be a poll pinned. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| A poll pinned to the chat. | ||
| Would you like for us to change the official time of the stream? | ||
| Let us know. | ||
| We know that everybody has different schedules. | ||
| A lot of people watch in different time zones. | ||
| Every time we do Super Chat, somebody from New Zealand Super Chats us. | ||
| Australia, people from like Bangkok. | ||
| So I don't even know what time it is there. | ||
| But for here in the States, where the dominant majority of our audience... | ||
| What would you like to see happen? | ||
| We are a show that is built around you. | ||
| We are a show that's built because of you. | ||
| We will never take you for granted. | ||
| We will always listen to the chat, and we will respond, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| So let us know. | ||
| The question is live right now. | ||
| I'm going to vote myself. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| I just voted. | ||
| There it is, the chat. | ||

| We freaking love you. | ||
| We're going to have a rowdy time today. | ||
| Wait until you see the camel motorcade. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump is securing the financial, fiscal, and relationship future of the United States all across the Mideast right now, and it is a beautiful thing to see. | ||

Your Excellency, President Donald Trump, President of the United States of America, Representative of the media. | |
| Okay, it's going to be a rough translation there. | ||
| Now we will see the signing of the agreement of buying aircraft from Boeing. | ||
| His Excellency Badr bin Abdul Amir will sign. | ||
| from the Qatar side, and Kelly Ortberg will be signing on behalf of Boeing. | ||
| Between the state of Qatar and the United States of America. | ||
| Boeing purchase agreement signed on behalf of the state of Qatar by His Excellency Bedram Hamad El Meir, CEO of Qatar Airways Company, and behalf of the United States, Kelly Ortberg, President and CEO of the Boeing Company. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| So this is Trump and Boeing signing a decision to partner. | ||
| This is again Qatar. | ||
| That is a nation that gave President Trump this giant epic aircraft. | ||
| Here's some comments up on screen. | ||
| We always like putting up the comments on screen. | ||
| Do we got a glitchy feed here? | ||
| It's been freezing. | ||
| Yeah? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen, up on screen. | ||
| We got so much to cover here. | ||
| Obviously, we're not going to like, we're not going to, there's a lot of business that happens. | ||
| So in Saudi Arabia, President Trump sat inside of the palace and sort of did formalities for hours, right? | ||
| And he didn't speak. | ||
| He didn't really speak much during the formalities. | ||
| But you can see the signing of these agreements. | ||
| And there we go. | ||
| And then everybody applauds. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We will now witness the signing of a number of agreements in the field of defense between the state of Qatar and the United States of America. | |
| Signed on behalf of the state of Qatar by His Excellency Sheikh Saud bin Abdurrahman bin Hassan Althani, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of State for Defense Affairs. | ||

| bass. | ||
| bass. | ||
| Okay, so I'll never talk over President Trump, obviously, right? | ||
| That's the rule of the show. | ||
| But I want to just wax a little poetic here. | ||
| President Trump is changing the world right now. | ||
| No president has ever visited Qatar. | ||
| No president has ever gone here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| The signing ceremony has now come to an end. | ||
| And now, a joint statement from His Highness the Enir and the President. | ||
| Oh, nice. | ||
| Okay, here we go. | ||
| They're going to speak. | ||
| Here comes the mics. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you very much. | |
| We had a couple of hours of great meeting with the President. | ||
| And we discussed many issues, our great bilateral relationship, and also the situation in the region. | ||
| Of course, I think after signing these documents, we are going to another level of relationship between Qatar and United States. | ||
| So I just wanted to thank you, Mr. President, again for this historic visit. | ||
| Thank you very much, sir. | ||
| Well, thank you very much. | ||
| And this has been a very interesting couple of hours. | ||
| We discussed... | ||
| The world. | ||
| We discussed Russia and Ukraine, where you've been a tremendous help in so many different ways. | ||
| We certainly discussed Iran, where it's been really an interesting situation. | ||
| I have a feeling it's going to work out. | ||
| I think it's going to work. | ||
| It's got to work out. | ||
| One way or the other, we know it's going to work out. | ||
| But you were of great help. | ||
| And other things, but in particular, the trade is the... | ||
| Kelly's telling me from Boeing, it's the largest order of jets in the history of Boeing. | ||
| That's pretty good. | ||
| And that's 140, was that a 140 or 160? | ||
| Well, yeah, but you're right, it's actually 200, including the 40, so it's over 200 billion dollars. | ||
| But 160 in terms of the jets, that's fantastic. | ||
| So that's a record, Kelly. | ||
| And congratulations to Boeing. | ||
| Get those planes out there. | ||
| Get them out there. | ||
| But I just want to thank you. | ||
| We've been friends for a long time, long before politics. | ||
| Well, for you it was politics. | ||
| For me it wasn't, right? | ||
| But we've been friends for a long time, and this is an outstanding man. | ||
| He's a great man, and we're going to help each other. | ||
| The United States is in a very strong position militarily. | ||
| We have the best equipment anywhere in the world. | ||
| You're buying a lot of that equipment, actually, and I think we're going to see some of it in action tomorrow at the, we won't call it an airfare, but it's going to be sort of an airfare. | ||
| We're going to be shown a display that's going to be incredible. | ||
| They have the latest and the greatest of our planes and just about everything else, so I think it's going to be a lot of fun and very interesting, but I just want to thank you for the friendship, for the long-time friendship, and again, long before any of this stuff. | ||
| We just liked each other. | ||
| That's not a bad thing. | ||
| That's a good thing. | ||
| But we always had a very special relationship. | ||
| And we came from Saudi Arabia, where we have another great man over there that's a friend of yours. | ||
| And you two guys get along so well and like each other. | ||
| You sort of remind me a little bit of each other, if you want to know the truth. | ||
| Both tall, handsome guys that happen to be very smart. | ||
| But he's also a very special guy, and it's good to see all the relationships forming in the Middle East. | ||
| Because the Middle East is really being talked about all over the world. | ||
| And we're having a lot to do with it. | ||
| We're helping a lot. | ||
| But they're doing a tremendous job. | ||
| So I just want to thank everybody very much for being here. | ||
| I want to thank the media. | ||
| The media has been very fair, actually. | ||
| And it's a great honor to be with you. | ||
| You take a look at this room. | ||
| This room is the real deal. | ||
| That's called white marble. | ||
| It's very hard to buy. | ||
| Believe me, I know very well. | ||
| Because you try to buy it, you can't buy it. | ||
| And you just take a look at what you have here. | ||
| It's been incredible what you've been able to build as a nation. | ||
| And we're with you all the way, and you know that. | ||
| Beautiful. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| The ceremony has now come to you. | ||
| Beautiful. | ||
| Look at Trump getting the chair pulled for him. | ||
| Commenting on the white marble. | ||
| Here comes the administration. | ||
| You can see Susie Wiles there. | ||
| Okay, well, there we go. | ||
| They cut away. | ||
| But you can see all the members of the administration. | ||
| I love seeing Pete. | ||
| I love seeing Pete get brought out signing the agreement to do a defense agreement with Qatar. | ||
| Do you understand how huge this is? | ||
| Again, let me explain something. | ||
| I went to community college. | ||
| I will never lie to you about my credentials. | ||
| I will never lie. | ||
| I will never try and be a snob or arrogant. | ||
| I only have one passport. | ||
| It's an American passport. | ||
| I'm an American. | ||
| I have American children. | ||
| I love this land. | ||
| This is my only country. | ||
| And I care the very most about the streets, cities, infrastructure, future of the children in my country. | ||
| My American children is what America First is all about, okay? | ||
| And yours, obviously, ours together. | ||
| So I'm not going to sit here and use this platform and this show to obsess, navel gaze, or flick off to some other country or some other nation. | ||
| Oh, I can name all the regions of South Korea or Ukraine or whatever. | ||
| It's not going to be my thing, okay? | ||
| I'm not going to be obsessed with other countries. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But... | |
| We will do our research, and we will go back and, like, understand, with Donald Trump's going to all these places, like, what exactly is the reformation of what's happening here? | ||
| And this is what's incredible about the Mideast. | ||
| What's happening right now, and it deserves explanation, okay? | ||
| And it deserves, like, simple explanation, right? | ||
| Oh, I'm gonna, like... | ||
| I'm not gonna go tell you, like, I'm not gonna go try and brag that I know the name of some sultan from... | ||
| The 1800s, right? | ||
| Who helped craft the Mideast with Franklin Roosevelt. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Let's talk about today. | ||
| Today, there is a nation that causes a lot of problems. | ||
| That nation is Iran. | ||
| I don't want war with Iran. | ||
| I want peace with Iran. | ||
| I want Iran... | ||
| To have a normalized relationship with America, I want them to stop bombing American soldiers. | ||
| I want them to stop funding terrorism throughout the Mideast. | ||
| I want them to stop being evil demonic goblins, okay? | ||
| Let me tell you something I won't do. | ||
| I won't ever advocate for war with Iran. | ||
| I won't ever advocate for a single American boot on the ground. | ||
| There are peaceful ways to stop the terrorism. | ||
| The Houthis shooting missiles at barges, destabilizing the region. | ||
| The terrorism that happens throughout the Mideast, virtually all of it is funded by Iran. | ||
| And it has to be stopped. | ||
| Now, there's a way to stop money from flowing into the Iranian coffers. | ||
| Clearly sanctions, shutting down their oil. | ||
| Barack Obama famously did the Iran deal and pallet, literal giant pallets of American cash were brought in. | ||
| You remember the photos, right? | ||
| Wait till you see the photos I'm about to show you about how Trump was welcomed to Qatar. | ||
| But I just want to explain what just happened there, especially with the military agreement. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| And can you please put up President Trump keeps the pen? | ||
| It's so awesome. | ||
| Look at how happy these guys are together. | ||
| Look at how great this is. | ||
| We just watched this live. | ||
| Look at how amazing this is. | ||
| Donald Trump keeps the pen. | ||
| Look at how happy Trump is with the pen. | ||
| Here's what's happening here. | ||
| Qatar was a proxy state for Iran. | ||
| Qatar helped funnel money and protect terrorists. | ||
| And they did do those things. | ||
| And what President Trump is doing is... | ||
| What he's been doing with Reid Hoffman, maybe you all saw me freak out yesterday, that Reid Hoffman, the man who funded all of the lawfare against Donald Trump, who tried to put Trump in jail, is now flying with Trump to all these meetings. | ||
| You watched our take on Bill Maher. | ||
| Donald Trump is in empire-building mode. | ||
| This has been explained to us by Trump's closest friends. | ||
| I'm telling you, people that, like, see and know Trump on a personal level that text with Trump. | ||
| Trump is empire-building. | ||
| How do you empire build? | ||
| Well, you can't just empire build by using your own assets and your own army, military, and weaponry. | ||
| You have to take from the enemy. | ||
| What Trump is doing is he's taking from his enemies right now. | ||
| He's stealing their greatest weapons, whether that's in the media ecosystem and cultural ecosystem like Bill Maher, whether that's in the financial and technological ecosystem like having Zuckerberg and Sunjarp Hashi from Google. | ||
| Jeff Bezos having Sam Altman, ChatGPT, Elon Musk, like bringing all those people into the fray. | ||
| The head of NVIDIA was there. | ||
| Black Larry Fink, BlackRock. | ||
| They were all traveling with Trump yesterday to Saudi Arabia to sign all these massive business partnerships. | ||
| Trump's stealing from the left. | ||
| Now let's see. | ||
| You know, the proof's going to be in the pudding, as they say. | ||
| Let's see if these people keep funding. | ||
| All the lawfare against Donald Trump and the destruction, obviously, of the conservative right here in this nation. | ||
| But what Trump is doing, he's building this massive, durable coalition by stealing from his enemies, by taking their biggest weapons. | ||
| And then, here's what you're seeing in Qatar. | ||
| Because what you're going to see today, let me explain what you're about to see. | ||
| What you're about to see today is from commentators that will remain unmentioned on this program, because we're not going to just try to be nice here. | ||
| I try very hard not to start flame wars among the right. | ||
| I really try. | ||
| I'll probably become Tucker in my older age, and I'll just be salty, and I'll start calling everyone out. | ||
| But for right now, I do my best. | ||
| I have an enemy, and that's the Marxist left, and I want to destroy them. | ||
| And then I'll catfight on my own side later. | ||
| I want to explain what you're going to see today. | ||
| You're going to see some of the usual suspects squealing about what President Trump is doing in Qatar. | ||
| How could he? | ||
| Qatar, they're bad, right? | ||
| You're going to see that. | ||
| They're shrieking and squealing. | ||
| That's what you're going to see. | ||
| The same people that would squeal that Donald Trump had Bill Maher at dinner or like his welcoming Elon Musk, who was a Barack Obama supporter, donor. | ||
| Elon Musk openly supported Democrats his entire life until President Trump was able to bring him into the fold. | ||
| And how great was that? | ||
| It is a good thing to take from your enemy. | ||
| The ultimate problem in the Mideast, a problem that has led to the death of I don't know, maybe somebody you know. | ||
| What do I mean by that? | ||
| Like, all of the terrorism that happened to our boys when they were wrongly, but it is what it is, passes prologue in Afghanistan and Iraq. | ||
| So all of those roadside bombs were made by Iran. | ||
| All, everyone who came back disfigured or broken or destroyed from those wars, it is Iran. | ||
| They are the chief evil. | ||
| The correct answer to that is not, let's start another war! | ||
| That is wrong! | ||
| The correct answer to that is let's neutralize them by taking all of their power and influence in the region, isolating them, and making them an absolute impoverished third world hellscape in North Korea, which is what President Trump is doing right now, and it will lead to actually great Western expansion from a peaceful sense and not bloodshed, war, and isolationism and radicalism. | ||
| It's an incredible thing what Trump's doing. | ||
| He met with the leader of Syria. | ||
| He's meeting with Qatar. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| I freaking endorse it. | ||
| Good! | ||
| This is how you win. | ||
| Being a puritanical little rage beta is how you lose. | ||
| And so I love what President Trump is doing. | ||
| He's taking Qatar and he's bringing them to our side instead of isolating them on the side of the enemies. | ||
| And he's resetting the table entirely in the medias against the actual enemy. | ||
| So well done. | ||
| I freaking love it. | ||
| And now let's get into how President Trump was welcomed to Qatar. | ||
| Because this is what I, this is how I like, this is what actual American, this is what America first worldview looks like. | ||
| And also, hot damn. | ||
| ALX, can you please grab me that commentary from Trump yesterday about neocons? | ||
| Gotta get it. | ||
| I want that Trump commentary about neocons yesterday in his speech in Saudi Arabia. | ||
| This beautiful thing, this reset of the world. | ||
| If you wouldn't mind, let's put up some of how President Trump was welcomed to Qatar on some of his iconography on screen. | ||
| As I described, just one final thing. | ||
| That I think is important. | ||
| In his speech yesterday in Saudi Arabia, Trump said the most important thing I think the president said in my lifetime. | ||
| Which is, we are done having our navel-gazing, credentialized, up-the-ass, flatulence-sniffing, Western liberal elites travel to the Middle East and lecture you. | ||
| Trump called out the neocons. | ||
| He called out the John Careys of the world, the Barack Obamas of the world. | ||
| He called out the people who are... | ||
| Who have been ubiquitous in our government for my entire life, at least for the last 70 years, who have decided that what American policy is going to be is we're going to travel around the world and lecture them and wag our fingers at them about how stupid they are and how smart we are and how if we just bombed their countries to rubble, we'd rebuild them and every single Middle Eastern country would be like Santa Barbara. | ||
| That's not how it works, jackasses. | ||
| That's literally not how God designed people to live, in fact, right? | ||
| It's never worked like that. | ||
| And every single nation that's tried to export empire and values beyond their region of influence, it breaks them. | ||
| It drains their treasury and they become like broken shells of nations. | ||
| Just go check in on England, right? | ||
| Go check in on England today versus England of 200 years ago. | ||
| It's such a wonderful thing that President Trump said. | ||
| It's such a respectful thing and it's something that's going to forge these... | ||
| We talk so much about manifest destiny, about self-determination. | ||
| And President Trump saying, like, we are done with an elitism, egalitarian class. | ||
| We are going to let you. | ||
| You are allowed to rule yourself in your own way, with your own customs, your own traditions. | ||
| And we're not going to lecture or scold you like a bunch of snobs. | ||
| We'd rather instead find partnership capacity and business capacity and open both our nations to cooperation. | ||
| Boy, that's how you actually bring peace throughout the world. | ||
| That's how you actually create a lasting peace. | ||
| It's a wonderful thing that President Trump said. | ||
| Do we have that clip? | ||
| All right. | ||
| Why don't we just go there? | ||
| I don't want to revisit everything because there's too much awesome stuff. | ||
| Klein's been cycling through some of the kick-ass stuff that's been happening, including the camel motorcade. | ||
| I will get to it. | ||
| But if you don't mind, just because we've studied this just for a little bit, right? | ||
| We're no experts, but we just studied it so that I could understand it and we could understand it together, right? | ||
| Just as... | ||
| Observers of the news. | ||
| Okay, that's all you really need. | ||
| You don't need the name of every tribal leader, all these dorks out there. | ||
| I know every tribal leader named. | ||
| Shut up! | ||
| Okay, we just need to understand, what are we getting out of it, right, as Americans? | ||
| Because we're America first, right? | ||
| Don't got another passport. | ||
| Not going to try and bankrupt and fleece this nation for all, strip mine this nation for all it's worth so I can go to my other nation, right, so I can go to my other country that I live in. | ||
| Like, that's not how it works for me! | ||
| And that's probably not how it works for you. | ||
| So this is the kind of stuff that I care about. | ||
| Security at home. | ||
| And here it is, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| President Trump, with his just the dominant part of his speech yesterday, it's so important to revisit. | ||
| It's the only time we're going to revisit something that Trump said yesterday, and then we're going to jump into what President Trump is doing right now. | ||
| Okay, here we go. | ||
| The transformations have been unbelievably remarkable. | ||
| Before our eyes, a new generation of leaders is transcending the ancient conflicts of tired divisions of the past and forging a future where the Middle East is defined by commerce, not chaos, where it exports technology, not terrorism, and where people of different nations, religions, and creeds are building cities together, not bombing each other. | ||
| Out of existence. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We don't want that. | |
| And it's crucial for the wider world to know this great transformation has not come from Western interventionalists or flying people in beautiful planes giving you lectures on how to live. | ||
| How to govern your own affairs? | ||
| No. | ||
| The gleaming marvels of Riyadh and Abu Dhabi were not created by the so-called nation-builders, neocons, or liberal non-profits like those who spent trillions and trillions of dollars failing to develop Kabbalah, Baghdad, so many other cities. | ||
| Instead, the birth of a modern Middle East has been brought by the people of the region themselves the people that are right here the people that have lived here all their lives developing your own sovereign countries pursuing your own unique visions and charting your own destinies in your own way it's really incredible what you've done in the end the so-called nation builders wrecked far more nations than they built and | ||
| the interventionalists were intervening in complex societies That they did not even understand themselves. | ||
| They told you how to do it, but they had no idea how to do it themselves. | ||
| Peace, prosperity, and progress ultimately came not from a radical rejection of your heritage, but rather from embracing your national traditions and embracing that same heritage that you love so dearly. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| The, the, the, okay, there's a meme going around right now on Saudi TikTok, actually. | ||
| Can you grab that still image? | ||
| It's Mohammed bin Salman going like this to Donald Trump. | ||
| It's going viral right now throughout the Mideast. | ||
| You've never seen anything like it. | ||
| Can you grab... | ||
| I got chills watching... | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| I apologize. | ||
| I'm not trying to crash out on stream here. | ||
| I'm just like... | ||
| I get chills watching that. | ||
| I'm literally... | ||
| I'm witnessing peace in our time. | ||
| Get Mohammed bin Salman going like this. | ||
| He goes like this. | ||
| Like, my heart goes out to you. | ||
| Like, I love you to Donald Trump. | ||
| And then the dude poses with the Trump thumbs up. | ||
| Can you grab those photos? | ||
| It's so epic. | ||
| This is the most powerful Arab in the world. | ||
| Like, there's no doubt about it. | ||
| You can't even make an argument. | ||
| It's the most powerful Muslim on earth is Mohammed bin Salman. | ||
| And he's sitting here with a thumbs up. | ||
| With Donald Trump. | ||
| Producers grab me that. | ||
| With a thumbs up! | ||
| He's doing the Trump thumbs up. | ||
| He played Lee Greenwood and then he played YMCA. | ||
| And he did the Trump thumbs up. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| And then he does my heart goes out to you. | ||
| He does a love Trump. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| It's wild. | ||
| What a special time to be alive, man. | ||
| What a remarkable time to be alive and to see it. | ||
| And this is what I'd like to say in sort of closing of all this before we jump into more of Qatar and what's happening there. | ||
| Isn't that what you want the message to be? | ||
| For your children and for you? | ||
| Isn't this what America First means? | ||
| Our traditions? | ||
| Our homeland? | ||
| We don't want a bunch of, like, smug European a-holes or, God forbid, Chinese communists running into our nation and telling us how we're supposed to live, looking down their noses at us. | ||
| We're Americans, dammit. | ||
| This is our homeland. | ||
| It's the only one we have. | ||
| Our great-great-great-great-grandfather hundreds of years ago In my case, probably in yours. | ||
| Built a cabin on this land. | ||
| Shed their blood for this land. | ||
| It's my land. | ||
| And it's your land. | ||
| And it's our country. | ||
| And it's our traditions. | ||
| We're the Native Americans here. | ||
| You want to know why? | ||
| Because we were born here. | ||
| Because our cultures, our tradition, that actually created the power of the greatest nation on earth. | ||
| Thanks be to God. | ||
| Isn't that a respectful message? | ||
| Wouldn't you, in any land that you're listening to, want to hear that message? | ||
| That we're not going to bomb you out of existence? | ||
| We're going to sit here and fly in for an afternoon and lecture you about how stupid you are? | ||
| That we're going to give homage to your ancestors and the people who built this place? | ||
| We're going to look around, Trump talks about looking around the gleaming buildings and the beautiful marble. | ||
| You just heard him talk about that in Qatar. | ||
| Man, that white marble, that's very expensive. | ||
| I would know. | ||
| Like Donald Trump, he like respects them. | ||
| And look what he gets back in return. | ||
| You ever seen anything like this? | ||
| This is the most powerful and richest Arab on earth. | ||
| Thumbs upping Trump yesterday. | ||
| Look at this guy. | ||
| Look at how happy he is. | ||
| He wouldn't even let Trump go. | ||
| Do you know that he rode in the Beast with Trump to the plane this morning? | ||
| And we're going to tie this all in. | ||
| I promise. | ||
| We'll get to the camelcade. | ||
| We're going to call it a camelcade. | ||
| I saw the comment in the section. | ||
| I saw the comment. | ||
| Thank you for the comment, camelcade. | ||
| I'm going to start using that. | ||
| I appreciate you. | ||
| I don't know which user, which commenter it was, but shout out to you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| If you can find that one, pin it to the top. | ||
| Okay, so get your camel emojis ready. | ||
| All right, we're going to go camel time. | ||
| Look at the guy. | ||
| Not that one, the other one. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| The one where he's doing the actual motion, please. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| This is going viral all across. | ||
| This is going viral all across social media because no Saudi, no Arab has ever seen their leader do this. | ||
| Do you have the clip? | ||
| He's literally like giving a hug, a like hug, a heart to President Trump. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| Don't you want that for your country? | ||
| Aren't you tired as Americans of hearing somebody come and lecture you about how backwards you are because you live in the South or because you live in West Virginia or because you like college football or you like to go hunt? | ||
| Aren't you sick of it? | ||
| What a beautiful thing. | ||
| It's called self-determination. | ||
| It's actually what our country was built on. | ||
| Boy, it's absolutely life-changing to hear it. | ||
| And this is why Donald Trump is being treated, greeted like a conquering hero. | ||
| Look at the, look at Mohammed bin Solomon in Trump's vehicle. | ||
| By the way, this is not allowed, okay? | ||
| Like, the king doesn't travel in foreign leaders' vehicles. | ||
| Not only that, the king doesn't go to the airport to meet people. | ||
| In his kingdom, people go to the king like Joe Biden had to in a humiliating way. | ||
| Joe Biden was met by interns at the airport with a fist bump. | ||
| Here's the king traveling around the car to Trump. | ||
| Not only traveling in Trump's car, but going around the vehicle. | ||
| Crossing behind Trump when he's leaving the country. | ||
| What love. | ||
| What respect. | ||
| Aren't you proud to be an American? | ||
| Isn't this what we want? | ||
| Do you really want a leader that goes to Saudi Arabia with a country, an economy that works for them and that was built in their traditions from thousands of years ago and like lectures them and sneers at them? | ||
| Or would you rather this? | ||
| Somebody who gets respect. | ||
| And oh, by the way, when the leader is standing there, thumbs-upping Trump, when the leader is standing there, man, that's a beautiful shot. | ||
| Boy, this was Trump leaving Saudi Arabia, by the way. | ||
| This happened very early. | ||
| This would be happening very early in the morning our time, about 3 a.m. our time. | ||
| This is President Trump leaving Saudi Arabia with the king, with the crown prince there. | ||
| Here's, I mean, look at this. | ||
| They're like, they're like bros. | ||
| This is like watching Dana White. | ||
| And Trump at UFC ringside. | ||
| They're bros. | ||
| By the way, when are we going to get... | ||
| When are we going to get UFC, Saudi Arabia, MBS ringside? | ||
| Let's do that. | ||
| We'll go to that one, Klein. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| All right. | ||
| We'll do that. | ||
| Look at Trump. | ||
| Look at him go. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| Thanks for playing this, guys. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| Look at him. | ||
| Look at him pointing at each other. | ||
| They just did an air fist. | ||
| They just... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look at... | |
| My heart goes out to you. | ||
| Beautiful. | ||
| Don't you want this? | ||
| Let me tell you what this means. | ||
| This means that they're going to kill less Americans in the Middle East. | ||
| This means more security for your sons and daughters. | ||
| This means more financial and economic security for your sons and daughters. | ||
| This means more investment in America. | ||
| Donald Trump's leaving with a trillion dollars investment in America. | ||
| Trump said it's a two million job trip. | ||
| He's creating two million jobs for Americans by doing this. | ||
| Do you know how good this is? | ||
| Yes, it looks great for Trump. | ||
| But this means something for you. | ||
| This means that you'll be able to travel that region if you'd like to someday. | ||
| If you want to go there, it means you're safer. | ||
| It means you may be able to play on their beaches or visit their cities someday if you wish, if that's something you'd like to do. | ||
| And you're not going to be killed. | ||
| You're not going to be targeted. | ||
| In fact, anyone that would dare harm a hair on an American's head, by proxy of what Trump has done in this relationship, they're going to get guillotined, all right? | ||
| Because there's different rules over there, right, for people that do bad things. | ||
| Isn't that good for us? | ||
| I mean, I just, I am going to go berserker mode on the sneering, sniveling little piggies in our country that somehow can hate on this. | ||
| I'm done. | ||
| I'm done with those people. | ||
| What President Trump is doing is magisterial. | ||
| It's so valuable for our nation. | ||
| We should be so proud of it as Americans. | ||
| This is what you want to see. | ||
| That's just such an awesome thing. | ||
| I'll move off from Saudi Arabia here. | ||
| Just put that one up, Klein, will you? | ||
| Boy, it's a beautiful thing. | ||
| This is the Emir of Qatar greeting President Trump in the suit, in the model of Saudi Arabia. | ||
| How special is it that our president gets treated with such respect? | ||
| These kings, please, let's move into the Qatar thing here. | ||
| These kings are... | ||
| Traveling in their kingdom to meet our president. | ||
| How special is it? | ||
| Does Trump speak here? | ||
| Is this a clip where they speak? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I want the clip where he says this is the first time I'm running. | |
| And ALX, I'm going to move into the bar. | ||
| For this freaking Oscar. | ||
| Let's not get ahead of ourselves. | ||
| All right, let's freaking go. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| That's why it's important. | ||
| That's why I care. | ||
| That's why you should care, too. | ||
| That's why you should be really, really proud here. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Qatar Jets Escort. | ||
| Okay, let's just go. | ||
| I'm going to use the script here. | ||
| Let's rock and roll. | ||
| And if there's not a full... | ||
| Jerry, if you don't have a full... | ||
| I want the camel parade with that music that was in the open here. | ||
| You're going to get the camel... | ||
| Guys, we're going to deliver on the camel motorcade. | ||
| The camelcade. | ||
| You're going to get me your music, and I want that under the camel motorcade. | ||
| Are you guys ready? | ||
| No other show will do this for you. | ||
| So freaking awesome. | ||
| Look at these jets. | ||
| Get the Scavino clip, will you? | ||
| Producers, you better be snappy, all right? | ||
| You better be snappy. | ||
| I'm going to start asking because I've been up very early oogling these clips, thinking about how important this stuff is. | ||
| Look at these jets. | ||
| Look at these jets traveling in, flanking Air Force One. | ||
| It's so cool. | ||
| Get me the Scavino clip. | ||
| Go, go, go. | ||
| Scavino from outside of his window looking at the jets flying, flanking Air Force One. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| There's another one, though, guys. | ||
| There's another one where it's actually out the window. | ||
| Or maybe Margot Martin. | ||
| Margot Martin, also a good one. | ||
| This is a cool one. | ||
| Here's Trump actually watching the jets. | ||
| Maybe Margot Martin. | ||
| There's one. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| This is so cool. | ||
| So when Air Force One enters the airspace... | ||
| And they don't do this for everyone. | ||
| They actually give them a military procession in the sky. | ||
| How awesome is this? | ||
| Donald Trump making, essentially saying that they're going to be doing a massive air show for him soon in Qatar. | ||
| Pretty freaking cool. | ||
| This is, they did this in Saudi Arabia. | ||
| These are F-16s. | ||
| And President Trump getting an honorary military escort down to the airport. | ||
| How cool is that? | ||
| Happening now from Dan Scavino, President Trump is looking out the window of Air Force One as we enter Qatar airspace with the fighter jet escort landing shortly in Hamad International Airport in Qatar. | ||
| Let's go ahead and watch this. | ||
| Here's the clip. | ||
| And that's President Trump watching himself. | ||
| How cool is that? | ||
| Look at that, man. | ||
| That's just badass. | ||
| It doesn't look real, right? | ||
| It just is so cool. | ||
| It just doesn't look real. | ||
| So, Donald Trump arrives. | ||
| Donald Trump, he lands. | ||
| And the emir, not the king, it's called the emir of Qatar, greets him. | ||
| And they are on the tarmac. | ||
| Let's go ahead. | ||
| Yeah, we're going to crank the audio down. | ||
| All you're going to hear is the jet engines roar. | ||
| The Amir's name is Sheikh Tamin bin Hamad al-Tani. | ||
| That's my best pronunciation. | ||
| Yeah, I know. | ||
| Clients sitting there going, you gotta go, you gotta ha. | ||
| Okay, yeah. | ||
| Throw some stank on. | ||
| Sheikh Hamid bin Hamad al-Tani. | ||
| Okay, all right. | ||
| Thankfully, I'm... | ||
| Suffering from a cold right now. | ||
| Here's President Trump, obviously, doing, like, greeting him. | ||
| They're having a great chat. | ||
| The guy said that we talked for hours. | ||
| Guy's got to be pretty freaking tall. | ||
| Donald Trump's every bit of, like, 6 '3". | ||
| This dude's, like, taller than Trump. | ||
| So here they are going to the car. | ||
| Obviously, there's no audio. | ||
| We can't hear any audio. | ||
| All you're going to hear is the jet engine. | ||
| But another, like, great honor that he, that President Trump has joined in the, well, he's not joining the motorcade here. | ||
| That was pretty special that the King of, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia joined Donald Trump in the motorcade. | ||
| That's not, that's not normal. | ||
| Having the Amirs meet President Trump at the airport, that's not normal. | ||
| This is just deep respect from these Arab nations. | ||
| And then get a load of this. | ||
| Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| The Cybertruck motorcade. | ||
| Now. | ||
| What a genius move. | ||
| Elon Musk is traveling with President Trump. | ||
| ALX, have we seen Elon Musk today? | ||
| Have we seen Elon today? | ||
| Nobody's a better Elon spotter than the great ALX, executive producer of this program. | ||
| But Elon Musk was spotted a lot yesterday. | ||
| Musk was on stage right before President Trump. | ||
| And Elon Musk was sort of ubiquitous in his Saudi Arabia trip. | ||
| And here is... | ||
| Cyber trucks? | ||
| What looks like red military or fire cyber trucks? | ||
| Dude, a fire cyber truck. | ||
| Leading the parade. | ||
| Let's make this as big as we possibly can. | ||
| Leading the military escort for Donald Trump. | ||
| The first American president to visit Qatar. | ||
| Think of that audio. | ||
| It's just kind of going to be white noise. | ||
| There's no music or anything to it, but like it adds something. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Magisterial. | |
| The streets are lined with American flags and Atari flags. | ||
| Do you understand the power of what's happening here? | ||
| Do you understand that Donald Trump is taking our enemy's greatest weapons? | ||
| Isolating our enemies? | ||
| Bringing peace and American hegemony and dominance to the region? | ||
| Bringing, but not dominance as in like we're going to conquer you, but dominance as in like we want to be your partners and respect you and your traditions. | ||
| How freaking awesome is that? | ||
| The red Cybertruck. | ||
| Cybertruck Motorcade. | ||
| Dude. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So Motorcade arrival. | ||
| Now, producers, I want to go hard in on these camels. | ||
| Get me as much camel content as possible. | ||
| We've been hyping this. | ||
| It's in the, I've never seen a camelcade. | ||
| Do you understand? | ||
| We've made a new word, and I want to just thank the chatter, all right? | ||
| There was someone in the chat that said camelcade, all right? | ||
| And whoever that is, big shout-out to you. | ||
| Get ready. | ||

| And then Trump... | ||
| And then we've played this. | ||
| He greets the emir. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen... | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| Producers, I think there's a moment where the emir like... | ||
| It says to Donald Trump, this is the first time a president's ever been here. | ||
| We're so thankful for you. | ||
| See if you can find that. | ||
| But before we get to that, the camelcade, okay? | ||
| Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| And producers, we better have, we better show it. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| This is the camelcade. | ||
| I know there's more clips of this. | ||
| I know there's more clips of this, so we better be hunting. | ||
| And Jerry, Jerry, if we don't have the camel music video, Guys, there's a clip of this that I sent to our breaking news chat that has more of the camel motorcade in it. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| Don't worry. | ||

| A lot happening here. | ||
| There we go. | ||

| Shame. | ||
| A crying shame. | ||
| Absolute L for the producers today. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| They'll try better next time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look at this. | |
| Freaking cool. | ||
| So Donald Trump says, we appreciate the camels after this. | ||
| And I think that this is... | ||
| Where the motorcade... | ||
| I think this is where the camelcade stops. | ||
|
unidentified

Alright. | |
| Okay, and then this is where it picks up. | ||
| Producers, you cut the camelcade! | ||

| Confirmed. | ||
| Now, President Trump really appreciated this. | ||
| President Trump actually, in his commentary this morning, said we appreciate the camels. | ||
| This is something you've never heard Trump say before. | ||
| The job you've done is second to none. | ||
| You look at this, it's so beautiful. | ||
| As a construction person, I'm seeing perfect marble. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is what they call perfecto. | |
| And just a great job you've done. | ||
| And what a beautiful place. | ||
| And we appreciate those camels. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I haven't seen camels like that in a long time. | |
| And with some greeting, we appreciate it very much. | ||
| We appreciate the camels. | ||
| And then the Amir of Qatar says, you are the first American president to visit Qatar. | ||
| We are so very honored. | ||
| Look at nothing but respect. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're extremely honored to have you here. | |
| We're very excited, very happy. | ||
| It's a historic visit. | ||
| And I don't know if you know that you are the first American president to officially visit Qatar. | ||
| So we're very honored. | ||
| We're very honored. | ||
| So, ladies and gentlemen, even though Jerry took a little too long to put the song under the camels, and the producer took a little too hard to find the camels, it's fine. | ||
| It's fine. | ||
| We endeavor always to deliver to you high quality live content as best as we possibly can. | ||
| So here, Jerry has delivered the camelcade, the full camelcade, the full, the, No, Jerry, you're going to have to go back through and get the actual camels in there. | ||
| No, no, no, Jerry. | ||
| No, no, no, Jerry. | ||
| Try it again. | ||
| Try it again. | ||
| No, we will deliver perfection. | ||
| No, Jerry, take the new camel footage and add, I want a full camelcade video. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| This was the Fox News coverage of it. | ||
| Did you load this one, Klein? | ||
| Yeah, I'm sorry, guys. | ||
| I'm just going to go off on the camelcade. | ||
| We're just going to go off on the camelcade. | ||
| I've been going on about it the entire show. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| Okay, so this is how Fox News covered the camelcade. | ||
| And then we'll move on. | ||
| I know that everyone's loving it. | ||
| Can I please get camels in the chat? | ||
| Is there a camel emoji? | ||
| Let's get as many camels in the chat as possible. | ||
| Here's how Fox News covered. | ||
| Let's go. | ||

|
It is 2:46 in the afternoon in Qatar. | |
| He just landed moments ago at the airport. | ||
| Apparently, they will have a state visit today. | ||
| Tonight, they will have a state dinner at Lucille Palace. | ||
| Right. | ||
| This is traditional from that culture. | ||
| They did this also in Saudi Arabia in the last trip. | ||
| I remember that. | ||
| And if you look closely on the overhead shot of the camels, you'll see those signs that say, please, you're responsible to clean up after your camel. | ||
| So if you're on that camel... | ||
|
unidentified
|
You have to get down off the camel and clean up. | |
| Get off the camel and clear up. | ||
| Just grab the hump, hop down. | ||
| This is all the pageantry that the president loves. | ||
| I mean, it's just a beautiful sight to see this happen. | ||
| Different cultures coming together. | ||
| And it's all for peace right now. | ||
| We talk a lot about the economic development, but I think the big headline is peace in the Middle East. | ||
| Will we finally... | ||
| We've actually obtained that under this administration. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Looks very developed. | |
| Looks beautiful. | ||
| It does. | ||
| It's very hot. | ||
| I mean, that is a place where the rich and the rich go, and you see a lot of sports development in the area. | ||
| And now you see the president of the United States. | ||
| This is one president that says, I love this stuff. | ||
| Yeah, he does. | ||
| He loves the pageantry because he understands, too. | ||
| That they're showing respect to the country. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| This isn't for Trump Tower. | ||
| This is about respect for America. | ||
| They're showing respect to the country. | ||
| And I think right now the Gulf states are very intrigued about what could be happening next. | ||
| They want to live a world in which they're not so dependent on their oil reserves because they know they're finite. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, the current leader of Qatar is Amir Taman bin Hamad Altoni. | |
| And he's been the Amir since 2013. | ||
| His father was the emir before him. | ||
| They rule the house of Tani, and their estimated family net worth is $335 billion. | ||
| This is one of the richest countries in the world because of the vast oil reserves. | ||
| We're not used to seeing the beast not surrounded by suburbans that are... | ||
| Blacked out. | ||
| But he's getting the escort by the camels as well as the horses as well. | ||
| As Brian noted, he loved the pageantry. | ||
| And it's right, because you see the American flags right there. | ||
| This is not about just Donald Trump. | ||
| This is about bringing peace to the world and America being the leader again. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's right. | |
| It's beautiful. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| So we have the official camel motorcade meme that Jerry has put together. | ||
| Jerry says he loves a job. | ||
| Where he has to make memes in real time for this wonderful audience. | ||
| This is our respect. | ||
| Yeah, that's right. | ||
| This is a first. | ||
| So we're just going to roll with it. | ||
| We also have President Trump doing a live press conference. | ||
| It was a live press conference from inside Air Force One that we're going to get to as well as our wonderful and esteemed guests. | ||
| Okay, so let's begin. | ||
| The Camel Motorcade. | ||
| Official meme for the program. | ||
| Jerry has put it together. | ||
| For you, especially, first time you're watching it, first time I'm watching it, this is the Jerry Camel Motorcade with music, Camelcade. | ||
| Let's go. | ||

Hey, hey, hey. | |
| Hey, hey, hey. | ||
| Hey, hey, hey, hey. | ||
| Hey, hey, hey, hey. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Guess what day? | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Woo, woo. | ||
| What is that sound? | ||
| It's the sound of a landlord. | ||
| What have we found? | ||
| It's our Cutter Brothers from the world. | ||
| I'm another mother. | ||
| Ahoy, my brothers, your marvelous perfecto. | ||
| Welcome aboard. | ||
| Join us for more whiskey in the jar-o. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Everything will be okay. | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| Day, what day? | ||
| It is, it's hump day. | ||
| Get it off. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| No other show will give you that style of... | ||
| A shout-out in the chat. | ||
| Big shout-outs in the chat for Jerry. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Well done, Jerry. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Fantastic. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So that's our official coverage of the Camelcade. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| I know there's other things going on, but we had to take a moment. | ||
| The official coverage of the Camelcade. | ||
| Can we make that normal in motorcade processions? | ||
| Can we make more horses and camels in the motorcades? | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Qatar signed a multi-billion dollar deal with President Trump and CEO of Boeing. | ||
| Qatar Airways will buy over 150 aircrafts from America's largest aircraft manufacturer, the largest order ever. | ||
| This is just delivering value for money. | ||
| This is just delivering jobs for Americans. | ||
| Boeing is an operation in South Carolina. | ||
| I know that they still have some operations in Seattle. | ||
| They also have a location in Wichita, Kansas. | ||
| But big time South Carolina. | ||
| Big time like red state jobs kind of thing right here. | ||
| Good job. | ||
| Major American manufacturing jobs locked in by President Trump in Qatar. | ||
| So well done. | ||
| And we played you President Trump live. | ||
| He hasn't been live yet. | ||
| But we also want to salt the libs. | ||
| I know we just put a bunch of camels up on screen, and I know we've got other things to get to today, but we have one final little Qatar clip. | ||
| And I think there's going to be more that rolls throughout the day, but like one final little clip here. | ||
| On CNN, for the first time ever in American history, a CNN anchor has been called out to her face for having Trump derangement syndrome. | ||
| Let me set the table. | ||
| Qatar gave President Trump a very nice gift. | ||
| It's a... | ||
| Big airplane. | ||
| This airplane is called the Flying Palace. | ||
| Maybe we can get some photos of it up. | ||
| This airplane is being streaked and screamed at about by libs because they don't like it, I guess. | ||
| They just want Americans to be demoralized and depressed. | ||
| By the way, I'm depressed. | ||
| Do you see what the streets in Qatar look like? | ||
| Do you still have the Cybertruck clip or some of the motorcade clips? | ||
| Like, I'm depressed. | ||
| Why can't our streets look like this? | ||
| Aren't we the most powerful country on Earth? | ||
| Why don't our streets, do your streets look like that? | ||
| My streets don't look like that. | ||
| Qatar's streets look like that because Qatar spends money on their own people. | ||
| You understand the difference? | ||
| Qatar wishes to spend money on Qataris, right? | ||
| They wish to build up their own infrastructure and make their, to make the places in which they all live a nice place. | ||
| That's what moral leaders would do in this country. | ||
| Were we to have more leaders? | ||
| Instead, our streets look like literal war zones. | ||
| Detroit, some of the collapsed, truly impoverished and sad cities across the Midwest. | ||
| Our streets, our cities look like they were on the front line of World War II or Ukraine. | ||
| Look like they've been bombed to smithereens. | ||
| America's never been invaded. | ||
| But we have had invaders from the inside. | ||
| We have had treasonous activities from the inside, which has been a globalist, cucked American political electorate who's decided to sell out our country, make us live in third world conditions so that Qatar can look like this. | ||
| This is what it looks like when you spend your money on your people. | ||
| This is sort of what it looks like when your leaders, just like, One example, but you could find pretty much any street in America, including mine, that's just filled with potholes, rot, and decay. | ||
| This is what it looks like when your leaders spend all their money and treasure on other countries and foreign wars. | ||
| Do you have potholes on your street? | ||
| What are your streets like? | ||
| Do your streets look like the streets of Qatar? | ||
| Huh? | ||
| Would you even want a camel to go down your street? | ||
| Would you want a camelcade in your street? | ||
| This is what every American street looks like. | ||
| Prove me wrong. | ||
| This is what every street in America looks like. | ||
| So the streets in Qatar can look, you know, like you can eat off them. | ||
| This is what it looks like when your leaders sell out your nation, and this is why we're for America first. | ||
| This is why I go on and on and on about, like, just look at your parks, look at your streets. | ||
| That's like just a prima facie. | ||
| Do your leaders care about you? | ||
| Or do they want you to break an axle every time you drive down the road? | ||
| Could they not give an F about you? | ||
| And if you have a street that looks like this, there's no doubt that you live in some type of rat-infested hellscape where your leader has a Ukrainian flag pin on their chest, right? | ||
| This is Ashley Street. | ||
| The amazing Ashley manages our meta platforms and is a wonderful producer on this program. | ||
| This is her street in Philadelphia. | ||
| This is what her street looks like in the founding city of the American Constitutional Republic. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There you go. | |
| Thanks! | ||
| Thanks for all the billions you sent. | ||
| Thanks for $200 billion to Ukraine and Israel and everywhere else so that your streets look like that, so that Qatar's streets can look like this. | ||
| Yeah, we have a despicable rat bastard political class here in this country. | ||
| Doesn't that make you a little angry? | ||
| Are there any streets in America that look this nice? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| There should be. | ||
| If we just spent a scintilla... | ||
| Of our foreign policy USAID budget on Americans? | ||
| Then that's what this country would look like. | ||
| Anyway, here's what the plane looks like that Qatar gave Trump. | ||
| It is a flying palace by every measure. | ||
| It's one of the most beautiful, nicest planes I've ever seen in my life. | ||
| So President Trump says he's going to swap out Air Force One for this. | ||
| I mean, what the hell is this? | ||
| Are those skulls on the wall? | ||
| Wait, are they really? | ||
| No way. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Badass. | |
| Bro, that is very dope. | ||
| This plane has what the kids would call aura. | ||
| This looks like it's in some type of nightclub scene in a James Bond movie, right? | ||
| This looks like some Casino Royale activity. | ||
| Well, no way. | ||
| They gave Trump a skull-filled... | ||
| So the skulls of Trump's enemies are pinned to the wall. | ||
| Well done. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Well, there you go. | ||
| There's no way. | ||
| Is this the actual plane? | ||
| It's incredible. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| We're living in a movie, man. | ||
| We're living in a movie. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| Those are thrones. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Those aren't seats. | ||
| Those are thrones. | ||
| All right? | ||
| All right. | ||
| So, Libs are losing their minds over this. | ||
| Here's a matter of fact. | ||
| When Barack Obama opens up his library, there'll be a wing called American Treasures. | ||
| And this is a wing that is in every presidential library. | ||
| Where the president displays gifts that were given to him from abroad. | ||
| Some of those gifts include bejeweled swords and crowns and golden ornaments. | ||
| Some of those gifts include love letters from Kim Jong-un and so on. | ||
| This is something that's normal. | ||
| The presidents don't get to keep these gifts. | ||
| That would be profiting off the presidency. | ||
| Because some of these gifts are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. | ||
| And so... | ||
| What this is, is a gift from a foreign nation. | ||
| It happens to be a very expensive gift, but it is a gift nonetheless. | ||
| It's permissible and legal. | ||
| It's not normal. | ||
| It's what's been happening since the presidency existed and was created 250 years ago. | ||
| Foreign nations have given honorary gifts to the president. | ||
| They don't keep them. | ||
| They put them in their libraries. | ||
| You can go travel to the... | ||
| What was the last presidential library I went to? | ||
| Richard Nixon Library. | ||
| And there were bejeweled, crowned, ornamented... | ||
| Gifts of very, very high value that were handed to Richard Nixon. | ||
| Probably millions, tens of, if not hundreds of millions of dollars worth of treasures from abroad that Richard Nixon was given. | ||
| This is the same thing. | ||
| Can Donald Trump sell this plane and make all the money? | ||
| No. | ||
| Can Donald Trump use this plane after his presidency? | ||
| I think no. | ||
| Unless maybe he could buy it for fair market value. | ||
| Did Donald Trump say that this plane is going to be... | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Which is why he said that. | ||
| Because this is considered a gift. | ||
| Again, an obscenely expensive gift, but a gift nonetheless that's been totally permissible throughout all time. | ||
| And when Barack Obama opens up, probably not in my lifetime, because he used DEI construction companies, but when Barack Obama opens up his hideous, brutalist, cement blob of a presidential library, There will be a wing that are treasures that were given to Barack Obama while he was president. | ||
| And they'll be very expensive because this is normal. | ||
| But don't expect that to be something that people on CNN understand. | ||
| This is what happened on CNN. | ||
| A girl named Abby Phillips, who actually has a highly rated show on CNN, highly rated for CNN, obviously. | ||
| It's still being beaten by Fox News at 2 a.m. and by our stream. | ||
| But Abby Phillips is on CNN and she's talking about this plane. | ||
| And she's squeaking and squealing about it. | ||
| And she gets called out by Mr. Wonderful to her face for having Trump derangement syndrome. | ||
| It's beautiful. | ||
| It's the saltiest salt I've ever seen. | ||
| Please get out your salt shakers if you're new here. | ||
| We do a segment called Salt That Lib where we salt our libs because they're crying and they need the extra sodium. | ||
| Please, salt shakers in the chat. | ||
| For Abby Phillips of CNN, officials salt that lib of the day. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's go. | |
| The United States Constitution would like to have a word. | ||
| That's why people care. | ||
| Because the reason that that's in the Constitution is to prevent the President of the United States from accepting things that are being Perceived as bribes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is the national interest of this trip? | |
| The goal of the trip is not to get a giant gift that he can say belongs to him as president, but then he takes with him when he leaves the office. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Abby, you have to distance yourself from Trump derangement syndrome. | |
| It's irrelevant to policy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It doesn't matter. | |
| What matters is, why are all these AI guys on this trip? | ||
| Have you heard of the emoluments clause? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wait, wait, wait. | |
| Why do you have all the leaders? | ||
| It's a serious question. | ||
| Have you heard of the emoluments clause? | ||
| Do you understand that that is in the Constitution? | ||
|
unidentified
|
He doesn't. | |
| No. | ||
| And do you understand that even if you think that maybe it might be okay, it's still legally... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| All right. | ||
| You have Trump derangement syndrome. | ||
| That's what he said. | ||
| Oh, mic drop. | ||
| You have Trump derangement syndrome, he said. | ||
| She's not going to like this. | ||
| She's not going to like our Trump press conference. | ||
| We have Trump's press conference. | ||
| He hadn't done a press conference since starting the trip. | ||
| Trump started the trip three days ago. | ||
| He hasn't done a press conference. | ||
| He did a press conference and took questions. | ||
| Donald Trump did aboard his plane, aboard Air Force One. | ||
| Not the new one, not the Flying Palace, although that'll be fun. | ||
| So we're going to bring you that, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| We always let the president speak for himself, and we always carry fully if he... | ||
| You know, asks and answers questions. | ||
| This was en route from Qatar, from Saudi Arabia to Qatar. | ||
| And so we're going to bring you that next, along with some of our excellent guests, Senator Eric Schmidt from the great state of Missouri and Mike Benz. | ||
| But first, ladies and gentlemen, please consider Patriot Mobile as your cell phone provider. | ||
| Please consider making the change today. | ||
| The reason why is that, well, if you're flying on a plane... | ||
| From Saudi Arabia to Qatar with Donald Trump, your Patriot mobile device will work because they're available on all major carriers. | ||
| They're also a Christian conservative wireless provider. | ||
| Based on our notes and our deep research, they're the only Christian conservative wireless provider in this country. | ||
| There are a lot of woke wireless providers that will immediately turn on a dime to destroy our movement and our rights, and we've seen that, obviously. | ||
| But there is only one that stands with the First Amendment, Second Amendment. | ||
| Isn't that important to have a cell phone provider that stands with the First Amendment? | ||
| I know Patriot Mobile personally. | ||
| I know their owners. | ||
| I know, Glenn, there are deep patriots who deeply love this country. | ||
| Make the switch today. | ||
| Right now, go to PatriotMobile.com slash Benny or call 972Patriot for a free month of service with the promo code Benny. | ||
| Make the switch. | ||
| Defend freedom with every call or text you make. | ||
| PatriotMobile.com slash Benny. | ||
| Call 972Patriot. | ||
| All right, ladies and gentlemen, let's rock and roll. | ||
| Here's President Trump emerging and doing a press conference from Saudi Arabia to Qatar. | ||
| It's not a long press conference, but it's really rich in what the president has to say, and we always let the president speak for himself. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hello, everybody. | |
| The jet fighters will be surrounding the plane in about seven minutes. | ||
| I heard they threw you out at the press conference. | ||
| They tried, but Caroline stopped them. | ||
| Caroline saved you. | ||
| You're lucky. | ||
| How's the trip going so far? | ||
| I think it's going going well. | ||
| Great relationships. | ||
| And now we're meeting with a group that's fantastic. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Amir is a great guy. | |
| I know them all very well. | ||
| Who are you? | ||
| I do. | ||
| You're going to be surrounded by eight fighters you're known about. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Seven minutes. | |
| Then you say, do we need them? | ||
| And when they say yes, that doesn't make me feel good, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's the threat? | |
| Can they tell you what the threat is? | ||
| No, it is. | ||
| Let's assume there's no threat. | ||
| We have to assume that. | ||
| How did you find the Syrian president? | ||
| Great. | ||
| Great. | ||
| I think very good. | ||
| Young, attractive guy. | ||
| Tough guy. | ||
| Strong pass. | ||
| Very strong pass fighter. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Does that worry you at all? | |
| He's got a real shot at holding it together. | ||
| I spoke with President Erdogan, who I'm very friendly with him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He feels he's got a shot at it. | |
| It's a sort of country. | ||
| Do you think Syria can join them? | ||
| What is this? | ||
| Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, that's in the video. | ||
| It's not us. | ||
| We apologize. | ||
| That was in the video. | ||
| We apologize. | ||
| We'll interview him sometime, Michel. | ||
| He's a great guy, but he's approved or almost approved. | ||
| You know, there's a danger there for a very successful man to go and do that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I said, you sure you know what? | |
| You do it. | ||
| It's like Doug taking pictures, right? | ||
| So you got some good shots, I guess. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's a beautiful scene. | |
| The last scene at the airport I thought was beautiful. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We rode out together. | |
| They generally don't do that. | ||
| They don't generally meet presidents. | ||
| There have been some reports of the Syrian president wanting a Trump Tower in Damascus. | ||
| Did that come up at all? | ||
| No, I have to wait a little while. | ||
| Things got down a little while with the country. | ||
| I think he's going to do it. | ||
| He's got the potential. | ||
| He's a real leader. | ||
| He led a charge, and he's pretty amazing. | ||
| Did you see him? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Did you get to see him? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| He was there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He was with us at the event. | |
| Did the PGA Tour or the golf come up at all in your conversations with the Brown Prince? | ||
| No, no. | ||
| You mean he lived? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, we didn't. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What about that Saudi intelligence agent? | |
| The 9 /11 family has run the Saudi intelligence agent to be extradited to the United States to face charges. | ||
| Did that come up in conversation? | ||
| On Israel, you're not going to Israel. | ||
| Does this trip sideline Israel at all? | ||
| No, not at all. | ||
| This is good for Israel. | ||
| Having a relationship like I have with these countries, at least some countries, essentially all of them, I think it's very good for Israel. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can I ask you again on Israel, on the hostage deal, did any of your people speak with Israel about the release of the American hostage, I'm sorry, and the sanctions lifting in Syria? | |
| What credit does Israel deserve, if any, for that release of the hostage? | ||
| Well, they've been fighting a long time. | ||
| They're warring. | ||
| And I think they deserve a lot of credit. | ||
| I think white people deserve a lot of credit, maybe. | ||
| The most credit. | ||
| Karazi wouldn't be living right now. | ||
| Probably none of the hostages would be living right now. | ||
| We probably have 20 that are living. | ||
| And we'll be getting out step by step. | ||
| You know, we've gotten a lot of them out. | ||
| Last time, a couple of weeks ago, 10 people walked into my office, the Oval Office, and they said they had a 59 on their shirt in front. | ||
| And I said, "What does that represent, the number of hostages?" I said, "Wow, that's a lot." He said, "Well, 24 are living." And now it's 20. The number is 20 of living. | ||
| The poor have died, and the young people. | ||
| Young people don't die. | ||
| Young people are killed, they don't die. | ||
| So then the 24 living of the 59, the 24 living is now down to 20. And we're good. | ||
| He done out. | ||
| His family was so thankful. | ||
| We did a good job with him. | ||
| We'll continue to do it. | ||
| What happens on Thursday if President Putin doesn't show up in Turkey for the talks with Ukraine? | ||
| What will you do? | ||
| Well, I don't know if he's showing up. | ||
| I know he would like me to be there. | ||
| Yeah, that's a possibility. | ||
| If he could end the war, I'd be thinking about that. | ||
| Now, tomorrow we're all booked down. | ||
| You understand that? | ||
| We're all set. | ||
| But you'd go if he goes? | ||
| We're gonna go to UAE tomorrow. | ||
| And so we have a very full situation now. | ||
| That doesn't mean I wouldn't do it to save a lot of lives and come back. | ||
| But, yeah, I think they're thinking about something. | ||
| I don't know that he would be there if I'm not there. | ||
| We're going to find out Parker's going. | ||
| And Parker's been very effective. | ||
| How are you feeling about how Poop is handling this? | ||
| I know you had said a few weeks ago you thought maybe how Poop is handling this. | ||
| You said a few weeks ago you thought maybe it was tapping you along. | ||
| I'll let you know in a few days. | ||
| Mr. President, on Brazil again, has any of your team been in touch with Israel and you, your team, about lifting the sanctions on Syria? | ||
| What's there with some reaction? | ||
| Well, in touch. | ||
| I mean, we told them we're doing it. | ||
| The reason I did it, and I think it's been very popular, actually, certainly in the Middle East, it's been popular for virtually everybody. | ||
| But the reason I did it is because I spoke with President Erdogan, who I get along with very well, and I spoke to Mohammed. | ||
| As you know, and they thought it was very important to do. | ||
| It gives them a much better chance of survival as a country. | ||
| I think what's happened is Turkey feels we should do it in other countries. | ||
| If you looked at my speech last night, which I assume most of you were at, I think the biggest applause was when I said that they're lifting these sanctions on Syria. | ||
| And that's because they want to give Syria a chance to live. | ||
| It could be great. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Mr. President, an Emirati government backed for a $2 billion deal using the Trump digital coins. | ||
| How did that deal come about? | ||
| I don't know anything about it. | ||
| I really don't know anything about it. | ||
| I'm a big crypto fan, I will tell you. | ||
| I've been that from the beginning, right from the campaign. | ||
| I'm a believer in crypto. | ||
| And if we're not going to do it, China's going to do it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's like AI. | |
| I'm a believer in AI because we have to have it. | ||
| We're leading China by a lot. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And in crypto, we're leading China by a lot. | |
| So I'm a big crypto fan. | ||
| You need to know about that. | ||
| Senator Schumer said he wants to block your Justice Department political appointees until he gets answers about questions about the Qatari plane. | ||
| What's your response? | ||
| Schumer, you know, he's become a Palestinian. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's something wrong with him. | |
| I don't know. | ||
| I've known him a long time, and there's something wrong. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's lost his confidence, totally. | |
| And there's just something wrong with him. | ||
| I don't know what it is with Schumer. | ||
| Yeah, did you have a question? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Go ahead. | |
| Well, there have been two questions on Iran and Russia. | ||
| Are you still considering secondary sanctions on Iran's oil exports? | ||
| Let's see what happens over the next week. | ||
| I don't really want to answer it because I want to see what happens over the next week. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then on Iran and Russia, are you considering sanctions on Russia for supporting Iran and for the continued war in Ukraine? | |
| Well, again, I don't want to talk about it, but I'm always considering the secondary sanctions. | ||
| I had the secondary sanctions on Iran and drove them into bankruptcy and there would have been no October 7th. | ||
| There would have been no money for Hamas or Hezbollah or anybody else. | ||
| So I'm always, as you know, I put secondary sanctions on Iran again. | ||
| And hopefully they're going to make the right decision because something's going to happen one way or the other. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Very simple. | |
| It's going to happen one way or the other. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Is that where the clip ends? | ||
| Oh, alright. | ||
| Strange. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, I know that the volume on this stuff is hard. | ||
| We effort to bring you the very, very best. | ||
| They only played like 10 and 15 second clips from this on cable news. | ||
| Again, it happened early this morning, 3 and 4 a.m. our time. | ||
| So this is the best that our producers were able to find as far as the freezing. | ||
| That happened and, like, the strange jump cuts. | ||
| That's just, I think, them trying to upload something from the plane. | ||
| And I think they have problems with the actual plane. | ||
| So it is what it is. | ||
| It's the best that we can possibly bring you. | ||
| And, you know, we're doing it live, right? | ||
| We are doing it live. | ||
| Speaking of live, this was just posted just to bring sort of home this value, the value of these relationships and the value of America, like, being dominant again on the Earth. | ||
| This is posted. | ||
| By Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia, the crown prince. | ||
| And he just posted the American flag and the Saudi flag together to his millions of followers and a photo of him waving at Donald Trump as President Trump boards the plane. | ||
| What an epic shot. | ||
| What an epic moment for our country and for the rule of law and for the return to that rule. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, that brings us along nicely to our next topic of discussion here, heading back domestically to this country. | ||
| As our producers pay attention to President Trump's schedule, do we have anything else on the schedule for President Trump? | ||
| I know he talked about going to an air show and having the Qataris do an air show with him. | ||
| We do have an AI of Donald Trump on a camel. | ||
| This isn't actually real. | ||
| We are sad to report this to you. | ||
| We do have an AI of Trump on a camel. | ||
| But sadly, it has been confirmed that this isn't a real photo of Donald Trump on a camel. | ||
| That's the Elon one. | ||
| You need to get the Trump one, please. | ||
| But ladies and gentlemen, that looks like a real photo of Elon Musk on a camel. | ||
| This is the photo of Donald Trump on a camel, happening soon, right here. | ||
| Thanks, producers, faster. | ||
| All right, here we go. | ||
| Yeah, ALX saying that he's in the dark. | ||
| We're in the dark right now as far as the Trump schedule. | ||
| We got the Trump schedule. | ||
| I mean, we can put it up on screen, but it's just Trump going to various palaces and there's no description, right? | ||
| Trump will go to St. Regis in Doha, the Lucille Palace, St. Regis, Doha. | ||
| Trump will go to all these palaces and there's no explanation of what's going on. | ||
| So we're just going to keep watch, right? | ||
| We're just going to keep our eyes open and we'll bring you what happens when it happens. | ||
| Something that we've been keeping our eyes open on here domestically is Hannah Dugan, you may recall. | ||
| Woke judge Hannah Dugan who masks even the statues inside of her courthouse. | ||
| Hannah Dugan was arrested two weeks ago for the assistance. | ||
| And the evasion of an arrest by ICE in her own courthouse. | ||
| Hannah Dugan was put in handcuffs. | ||
| That's a very special photo that Cash Patel posted. | ||
| It's a photo of Hannah Dugan in handcuffs, and you'll see that they had to actually... | ||
| Hannah Dugan is of such a stature, a portly stature, that they had to use multiple handcuffs, actually, to get her arms behind her back. | ||
| Which is really special. | ||
| Let's go ahead and zoom in here. | ||
| It's just the little details that we notice around here that I think really separate us from the rest. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Hannah Dugan, they had to use three sets of handcuffs in order to get her pudgy little fingers behind her back. | ||
| Well, well done, Kash Patel, FBI. | ||
| Kash Patel posted this. | ||
| Let's go ahead and check in on the numbers here. | ||
| Nearly 40 million views, 250,000 likes. | ||
| 34,000 reposts. | ||
| This is Cash Patel's most viral post on X, the arrest of a Democrat judge. | ||
| What did the Democrat judge do exactly? | ||
| Well, according to the now unsealed arrest warrant, we know that Hannah Dugan had a criminal alien in her courthouse. | ||
| Put up the photo of the criminal alien. | ||
| It's right in that article client. | ||
| If you just scroll down, thank you. | ||
| This criminal alien was in Hannah Dugan's courthouse. | ||
| Hannah Dugan is an extreme left-wing activist, this upstanding member of society that's obviously totally assimilated to the American culture and way of life. | ||
| This individual is a domestic abuser. | ||
| He is someone who beats women. | ||
| He is someone who is a monster and who clearly doesn't belong in this country. | ||
| He needs to go home. | ||
| And ICE was about to send him home by arresting him and deporting him. | ||
| But Hannah Dugan, in her masked courthouse with the Ukrainian trident, notice there's a Ukraine trident there on her desk. | ||
| Hannah Dugan, who's happy to simp for Ukraine in her courthouse but cares little about America or American women being abused by the criminal aliens that are before her, Hannah Dugan decided to not only scream at ICE, | ||
| And to direct them out of the courthouse, essentially impeding an arrest, but then took the criminal alien, let's put his face back up, shall we? | ||
| This upstanding member of society, not a member of society, not an American, not somebody that we want here, has to go home. | ||
| Put him inside of her private judge's quarters and then smuggled him out of the courthouse. | ||
| To evade ICE. | ||
| This is what Hannah Dugan did. | ||
| Hannah Dugan was arrested. | ||
| The arrest doesn't mean anything unless she gets charged. | ||
| And she's now been indicted and charged. | ||
| That is the breaking news from last night. | ||
| Hannah Dugan charged in assisting criminal alien to evade ICE after he was accused of pummeling a victim, a woman. | ||
| Woke Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan. | ||
| Helped a criminal alien of eight ICE authorities. | ||
| Milwaukee County Judge was led away in handcuffs. | ||
| Multiple handcuffs, okay, as we've noted. | ||
| While still in her black judicial robe. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| You can only get so excited around here. | ||
| And being accused of obstruction of justice, concealing Mexican national Eduardo Flores Ruiz from federal law enforcement. | ||
| Pre-trial hearing. | ||
| The high-profile arrest led to outcry from Democrats. | ||
| As the Department of Justice defended the action. | ||
| The indictment on Tuesday came at the end of the day. | ||
| Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, I had a little pop-up ad there. | ||
| The worst, aren't they? | ||
| At the end of the day, day-long hearing, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported, she is initially charged with concealing an individual to prevent arrest and obstruction. | ||
| The grand jury determined that there was enough probable cause to continue the case. | ||
| She was temporarily relieved of her duties in the aftermath of the arrest. | ||
| Her defense team only had a terse statement for the most recent development, stressing Dugan maintains her innocence! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hmm. | |
| Ice capades, it says. | ||
| She's expected to enter a plea deal. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| So how can you maintain your innocence if you're going to do a plea deal and cop to this? | ||
| She was in court. | ||
| This criminal alien, who doesn't belong here, Was in court in front of Dugan on April 18th on three misdemeanor charges for battery. | ||
| She escorted the criminal alien and his lawyer out the back jury door of her courtroom after she became aware that ICE was in the courthouse looking for him. | ||
| She then raged and confronted ICE and started screaming at them. | ||
| Very controversial according to the filings here of the DOJ. | ||
| And she instructed them to speak to the Chief Justice. | ||
| She returned to her courthouse and she led the criminal alien out an exit used by staff and jurors and defendants only. | ||
| So she human smuggled. | ||
| They should add, they should accelerate this. | ||
| They should add accelerant human smuggling charges to this wonderful judge. | ||
| I want to bring attention to judges like this just very quickly here. | ||
| Can we scroll up in the article, Klein? | ||
| Zoom in on her photo here with the Ukrainian flag behind her. | ||
| I want to talk about the specific style of left-wing, aging, childless, left-wing boomer wretch. | ||
| I want to really pin this down. | ||
| You've got to understand something. | ||
| You've got a biological nature that has been hard-coded into you. | ||
| That's why I preach so often that men must start families. | ||
| You have to get married and start a family. | ||
| You have to unlock and activate. | ||
| That biological agent that is woven deep into your bones. | ||
| The reason that you exist today, young men, is because for thousands of years, men in your family lineage have had the guts and the balls and the fire to provide for and to protect their families. | ||
| And to bring you, bring forward your progeny, your family tree into the world. | ||
| And that's in you. | ||
| That's woven into your DNA. | ||
| Once you become a father, once you become a husband, once you become a protector, it will unlock incredible potential in your life. | ||
| But it's something you must do. | ||
| You must have that motivation. | ||
| Smoking weed, sitting on the couch, playing video games will not give you that motivation. | ||
| Pornography, OnlyFans, that will not give you that motivation. | ||
| You must actually do it physically in real life because we live in a real and physical world where you can actually build things and do things. | ||
| You can just do things. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Level up your life. | |
| Unhappy, miserable wenches like this have denied purpose, denied motherhood, denied the calling to have a life that is grounded in the raising and upbringing and flourishing of her own family. | ||
| And instead, because that desire doesn't go away, has then projected that desire onto someone else's children. | ||
| In a very sick and strange Stockholm Syndrome kind of thing that libs do all the time. | ||
| So Hannah Dugan then sees, if you would please scroll, Klein, Hannah Dugan sees this criminal alien as her child. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because it is innate in human nature that you must bring forward your value system. | ||
| Not just like your genetics or anything, but like your actual value, like your worldview. | ||
| Can't die with you. | ||
| You must create more of you, right? | ||
| And that is the spark that brings forward the human race. | ||
| You have to create more of your culture. | ||
| Hannah Dugan and left-wingers see the 30 million. | ||
| Most of these people are sterile. | ||
| They don't have happy lives. | ||
| They're obsessed with sex, but they don't have sex lives at all. | ||
| Nobody wants, of course, to... | ||
| Have sex with them. | ||
| You ever met these people? | ||
| They have yellow teeth. | ||
| They smell. | ||
| They have hairy armpits. | ||
| They have little mustaches. | ||
| Hannah Dugan is one of these people who doesn't have it in her to actually go and create and make life. | ||
| She needs to import it. | ||
| She needs to import her worldview and then impress upon them through fealty to the state the hopes that the criminal aliens will vote. | ||
| For the kind of culture that she wishes to create. | ||
| But it's a vanishing dream. | ||
| Because left-wingers aren't pronatalist. | ||
| In fact, it is the cultural, dominant cultural messaging, and conservatives don't listen to dominant cultural messaging, but left-wingers do, that you shouldn't have children, that you should cut off your family tree, that you should be dead limbs. | ||
| We are the only pronatalist movement. | ||
| And that is why we are actually procreating. | ||
| That's why we are passing on our value system. | ||
| That's why so many young people are right-wing! | ||
| Also, because obviously for young people, you want to be punk rock. | ||
| And there's nothing more punk rock than a freaking president who survives an assassin's bullet, sits ringside with Joe Rogan, Dana White, watches warriors battle, gets treated like a king. | ||
| Trump is the punk rock presidency. | ||
| Young people have always been attracted to that style of energy, that conquering energy, that revolution energy. | ||
| Always. | ||
| And what is a revolution about? | ||
| The finding of truth. | ||
| That's also what we do. | ||
| You wonder why so many people are tuning in now to independent media is because they're getting truth. | ||
| And this is a hard truth. | ||
| Scroll up, please. | ||
| In conclusion here, I'm not trying to do a big lecture, but I want to establish. | ||
| These miserable cat ladies, these wretches, they view the 30 million criminal gang members and aliens that were brought into this country as their only hope to continue their sick third-world progressive ideals, and that's why they'll protect them like this. | ||
| What she's doing in smuggling this criminal alien through her courthouse and screaming at eyes, she's acting like a mother to protect her own children, right? | ||
| And that's the sick and demented psychology that's going on inside of their little bird brains. | ||
| That's what's going on here. | ||
| They've chosen not to have kids. | ||
| They've chosen not to live lives where they're able to pass on their value system. | ||
| This is why, of course, they create little propaganda centers in our universities and education system because no kid would ever come across. | ||
| There's 792 genders. | ||
| No kid would ever come up with that. | ||
| They have to try and imprint that in you. | ||
| It's antithetical, right, to God's design, the designs of nature. | ||
| And so they have to create these systems in order to corrupt our children. | ||
| And the opening of the borders to 30 million strangers and criminals in our country was the Democrat, the feral, sterile Democrat way of trying to create a progeny. | ||
| Trying to continue their worldview. | ||
| It's despicable. | ||
| It's sickening. | ||
| The early returns are very bad. | ||
| Americans are dying, obviously. | ||
| And we're going to deport your children. | ||
| That's what's going to happen. | ||
| Because that's not actually how you build a flourishing country. | ||
| The way you do it is the way that we're doing it. | ||
| By actually manning up, marrying up, having children. | ||
| Being fathers, being mothers, raising Americans in our culture, on our land, that our ancestors conquered and settled and created. | ||
| This is the greatest country on earth. | ||
| And that's how you actually create and continue a culture. | ||
| Kind of ties nicely into Trump's speech in Saudi Arabia and his, like, mad respect for the people that built that country. | ||
| And so this, ladies and gentlemen, is what we're fighting. | ||
| This is why wretched, repulsive cat ladies like this, left-wing boomer cat ladies like this, this is why the only people you see at these rallies, these Tesla rallies, are all like aging decrepits. | ||
| We went to one. | ||
| Klein and I went to like a Tesla protest. | ||
| It was hilarious. | ||
| Was there a single person there who wasn't on Social Security? | ||
| And this isn't an ageist thing. | ||
| What I'm trying to say here is, like, the reason why there's this phenomenon of older people, like, in their walk... | ||
| There's, like, a funny meme of actually, like, people with walkers, like, holding up anti-Elon signs in walkers. | ||
| The reason that's happening is because these people have no children. | ||
| They have no future. | ||
| They're biological dead limbs. | ||
| And the reason why these left-wing protests have become so... | ||
| Look like a nursing home activity hour is because they're realizing their only hope at having a future for their worldview is to import that worldview and to addict them to the government dole. | ||
| To addict them to welfare and then make them bend their knee before fealty to the Democrat Party and Democrat rule. | ||
| To rig our census, to rig our elections, and that's it. | ||
| That's the only way that they maintain power. | ||
| Without the criminal alien element, Democrats lose 30 seats in the House of Representatives. | ||
| They probably lose five to seven senators. | ||
| They're in a permanent minority. | ||
| You understand this is life or death for these people from a political perspective. | ||
| That's why they fight like that. | ||
| That's why they fight like such rabid animals to keep rabid animals in our country. | ||
| And it's why it's really important. | ||
| It's why we must win this battle. | ||
| Here we go, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| This is the news on The Judge. | ||
| Okay, and then we have one more big W before we get to our spectacular senator here. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
|

|
This is a Fox News update. | |
| I'm Griff Jenkins in Washington. | ||
| A federal judge indicting Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan on charges she tried to help an undocumented immigrant escape arrest. | ||
| The two-page indictment accuses Dugan of obstructing a U.S. agency and concealing an individual to prevent an arrest. | ||
| The two charges carry a maximum penalty of six years in prison. | ||
| Dugan's attorneys say she maintains her innocence. | ||
| She maintains her innocence, but she's going to take a plea deal? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Got it. | ||
| Release the tapes, please. | ||
| That's what I'm going to say. | ||
| There's videotapes. | ||
| There's cameras all over these courthouses, right? | ||
| There's cameras everywhere in these courthouses for legal reasons. | ||
| Release the tapes of her smuggling the criminal alien. | ||
| She's facing up to 10 years in prison. | ||
| I say, like, throw the book at her. | ||
| Don't offer her a plea deal. | ||
| Throw the book. | ||
| Put her in jail. | ||
| I need a jumpsuit. | ||
| I need the jumpsuit photos. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And then release the videos. | ||
| Judge upholds Trump's authority to deport criminal aliens under the Criminal Alien Enemies Act. | ||
| Very good. | ||
| This is a wonderful thing. | ||
| A federal judge on Tuesday said the Trump administration can invoke the Alien Enemies Act to deport criminal aliens and members of the Venezuelan Trendy Aragua gang, but does not give an adequate prior notice to those subjects to removal before the deportations can take place, which would allow possible due process and habeas legal challenges. | ||
| Just suspend habeas corpus at this point. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| And a 43-page ruling, U.S. District Judge Stephanie Haynes, a Trump appointee, conflicts with other rulings challenging the administration's deportation efforts. | ||
| Having done its job, the court now leaves it to the political branches of the government and ultimately to the people who elect those individuals to decide whether the laws those executing continue to reflect their will, Haynes wrote. | ||
| Yeah, well, what the will of the American people are is to... | ||
| Rid ourselves of the element, foreign criminal element in this country that was brought here illegally, that remains here illegally, and will be going home legally because it is legal to rid the country of those who wish to invade. | ||
| And that's what the Alien Enemies Act is all about. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, as I've watched some of these rulings out of the court, I've gotten high blood pressure. | ||
| This is obviously something that I've struggled with. | ||
| It's what makes the show entertaining, right? | ||
| As we, like, scream for camel memes, right? | ||
| And this is what we do here, and we want... | ||
| I want it because I know that you want it, and I saw all the camel emojis, and it's the first camelcade. | ||
| I look forward to talking with our senator about that. | ||
| But anyway, the point is that in this environment, it is a high-pressure environment. | ||
| I naturally do have high blood pressure. | ||
| You check with my nurse wife. | ||
| This is something that has been a major struggle in my entire family. | ||
| I am constantly looking for ways to remain healthy. | ||

| Okay. | ||
| Rocking and rolling, somebody who always calms us around here, somebody who always lowers our blood pressure, is the great senator now from the state of Missouri, Eric Schmidt, joining us live. | ||
| you you you you you you I say senator because you were an attorney general, and, you know, I just know that if Hannah Dugan was acting the fool, Like, judges acted the fool while you were Attorney General in Missouri. | ||
| That'd be a very different, very hard road for her. | ||
| I know, but I do love how you promoted me as, like, a soothing agent. | ||
| That was very nice of you. | ||
| I like how you're working on your studio here. | ||
| You got the Dr. Pepper. | ||
| You got the Diet Dr. Pepper. | ||
| What's up? | ||
| There's no sponsorship deal. | ||
| There's no NIL. | ||
| It's just what I'm drinking to stay caffeinated. | ||
| But I do have my Cardinals. | ||
| I got my Mizzou Tigers in the background here. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Okay, well, please stop kicking Iowa's ass every single time. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| I'd appreciate that. | ||
| Speaking of kicking ass, now we're looking at actual indictments for judges who behave criminally and illegally, and I think this is such a powerful and good thing. | ||
| I would like to see a lot more of it. | ||
| Your take, Senator? | ||
| I mean, look, the actions of that judge in her courtroom... | ||
| We're egregious and we're criminal. | ||
| And that's exactly why Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice is moving forward to try to subvert the efforts to deport someone who is here illegally. | ||
| By the way, in the face of the victims who were there gathered, why he was brought in there was a domestic violence issue. | ||
| It sort of added insult to injury that this judge was trying to whisk away someone here illegally. | ||
| Who had come back and committed more crimes is just beyond the pale. | ||
| So this is what happens. | ||
| And so I think it's part and parcel of an effort that President Trump ran on, which is we had mass migration, and now we're going to have mass deportations. | ||
| And you also referenced, while I was in the holding room there, a recent ruling by a judge that President Trump can move forward on the Alien Enemies Act. | ||
| That was also true under the Boatsburg decision before it got transferred to Texas. | ||
| Um, the judge said, yeah, absolutely. | ||
| The president is the commander in chief. | ||
| This is core article two powers in the constitution. | ||
| He can make this determination. | ||
| It's a political question. | ||
| The court doesn't have jurisdiction in that regard. | ||
| And I think as these things make to, I guess, to calm the blood pressure, um, and be the soothing agent, I think as these cases make their way through. | ||
| From this kind of patchwork district court level, as they make their way to the appellate level, there's going to be more good news. | ||
| And ultimately with the Supreme Court, that President Trump on the domestic side can actually absolutely with like USAID handle programming and personnel that's within his authority. | ||
| And then also on deportation. | ||
| I mean, the immigration laws are very clear. | ||
| They're abiding by the immigration laws and they're deporting people some more swiftly than others. | ||
| But I think all this is going to be good news at the end of the day and they should move. | ||
| Forward, full steam ahead. | ||
| So moving forward, full steam ahead, something that was very depressing that we saw out of the Senate. | ||
| I know that you like coming on here and claiming victories, but Senator, what happened to Ed Martin was so embarrassing and sad for us. | ||
| I know that you were a big-time backer of his and that we're proud, we're glad that Judge Jeanine's allegedly going to get it, according to the whip numbers that we've seen. | ||
| Give us a status report on Judge Jeanine and then... | ||
| What happened with Ed Martin? | ||
| Yeah, I mean, actually, Ed and I go back years. | ||
| Ed's actually from Missouri. | ||
| And so I've known Ed when he was back in Missouri before he was here and then appointed to this really important position. | ||
| And I think he would have done a great job. | ||
| He was doing a great job. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| You know, you can only lose a few people with the majorities that we have. | ||
| And I guess a few senators came out and said they weren't supporting him. | ||
| I disagree with that. | ||
| I think that you'd already seen the track record of taking on violent crime. | ||
| It's somebody that President Trump... | ||
| And I think you give the benefit of the doubt to President Trump for these key people in these key positions. | ||
| And U.S. Attorney in the District of Columbia, where you've seen violent crime run rampant, along with a lot of other corruption, is a very important role to play. | ||
| So I think Judge Jeanine, that'll move forward as these U.S. Attorneys kind of make their way to the Judiciary Committee that I'm on. | ||
| And I think you're already also seeing, Benny, it's probably a little bit under the radar, but maybe worth mentioning. | ||
| President Trump's now already starting to move towards appointing more federal judges. | ||
| So last week he announced the first batch of four. | ||
| I'm proud to say we had four vacancies. | ||
| Senator Hawley and I kind of held the line during the Biden administration. | ||
| There are four vacancies now. | ||
| President Trump, of the eight, appointed three in his first term. | ||
| He's getting another four. | ||
| So seven of the eight of the Eastern District of Missouri are going to be rule of law judges that rule, you know, as the law is written, not how they want it to be. | ||
| And then an Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals that has all Republican appointees minus one. | ||
| So I think you're going to start to see more of these pieces in place with not just the U.S. attorneys being put in, but federal district court judges and appellate court judges. | ||
| President Trump had set a record for that in his first term, and they're full steam ahead already on that, and that's good news too. | ||
| Okay, so you are on the Judiciary Committee. | ||
| You throw around quite a bit of weight there, you and Senator Hawley. | ||
| And so, Judge Jeanine, is she going to be a lock for becoming one of the most powerful attorneys in all of the country? | ||
| Obviously, in the District of Columbia, this is where we saw so much rot with January 6th. | ||
| This is where we saw so much targeting of Trump voters. | ||
| And it would be just sweet justice to see Judge Jeanine in that position. | ||
| Agreed. | ||
| I don't think she's going to have any issues. | ||
| Now, look, the Democrats are going to whine and they're going to squeal on everything. | ||
| And we shouldn't care. | ||
| We've just got to move full steam ahead. | ||
| I'll give you an example. | ||
| Yesterday, I was on the Senate floor. | ||
| They're trying to create a backlog here of ambassadorships. | ||
| I mean, we've never seen this level of obstruction since the Ford administration where they filibuster every single one. | ||
| Now, the good news is we're going to get through them all. | ||
| It's just going to take a little bit more time. | ||
| But try to move on an expedited basis the ambassador to the Vatican. | ||
| In order for that ambassador to be there for the installation of the Pope this weekend, they blocked that too. | ||
| So they're going to block everything because they're in this mode. | ||
| They're lost. | ||
| They're in the wilderness. | ||
| They got no message. | ||
| They got no leader. | ||
| They're swinging at every pitch. | ||
| They look ridiculous. | ||
| So we're going to see more and more of this stuff. | ||
| I'm sure they're going to object to Judge Jeanine, but who cares? | ||
| We've got the numbers. | ||
| We need to plow forward. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So what's the math here, just very quickly? | ||
| Can you talk us through this? | ||
| Because, frankly, I thought that Ed Martin would be a lock, and Ed will be on the program tomorrow, and so we're going to ask him about it. | ||
| But is there a chance that there's going to be, like, limp-wristed Republicans who are still, like, living inside of some type of ghost house, haunted mansion of January 6th? | ||
| That's what we heard on this program. | ||
| You know, there are Republican senators who cry themselves to sleep in fetal positions, thinking about... | ||
| The guy with the bison horns, right? | ||
| Like yodeling at night. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| No, I've not heard any of that, but in fairness, I guess her name really hasn't, it's not been in front of the committee yet. | ||
| The numbers essentially, when you have a, think of it this way, it's 53 Republican senators. | ||
| So the margins on all these committees are either a one-vote majority or a two-vote majority, depending on the committee composition. | ||
| On the Judiciary Committee, You can't lose anybody because if you lose one member, it's a tie, and then it doesn't move forward. | ||
| So on the Judiciary Committee, it's a pretty tight margin. | ||
| We've got to hold everybody in line to move forward. | ||
| So I would expect that this one will get a lot of attention. | ||
| It should because it's an important one, and I think she'll do a good job. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, good. | ||
| We're doing our very best to stiffen the spines and to just say, well, listen, Democrats would never do this to a Democrat president. | ||
| In fact, some wild numbers yesterday were brought on the show that at this point, after 100 days, Nancy Pelosi had already brought 11 bills to the desk of Joe Biden, codifying what Joe Biden's vision for the country was, God help us, and then also a continuing resolution for the funding of the government. | ||
| And there's been less than half of those numbers of bills have been delivered to Donald Trump's desk, and very little on major weighty issues. | ||
| So can you please talk us through what is the logjam going on inside of the House and the Senate, please? | ||
| Yeah, to give context in the Senate, we've actually moved forward more nominees than any president since, I think, the Reagan administration. | ||
| So on the Senate side, The Democrats are being obstructionist, but we're making them earn it. | ||
| I mean, sometimes we're voting at one, two in the morning. | ||
| And we should continue to do that. | ||
| And frankly, we should do more of that. | ||
| I grew up in a working class family, saw my dad work seven days a week in the midnight shift. | ||
| So I'm not afraid of a little hard work here in the Senate. | ||
| And that's not even hard work. | ||
| It just means staying awake and voting. | ||
| We can do more of that. | ||
| But to your point about what's actually happening, I think the way to look at this, though, is... | ||
| Because of the fact that we have the trifecta, because we have the House, because we have the Senate, because we have the White House, we shouldn't rely exclusively on executive action because effectively what President Trump's doing is undoing a lot of the damage. | ||
| We need to do it. | ||
| But the good news is we have the reconciliation process. | ||
| I think what you're seeing is a lot of the ideas, whether it's on regulatory reform or other tax ideas or kind of like a pro-family, pro-worker agenda, that is getting wrapped up into this one big, beautiful bill, right? | ||
| And so I think a better way to look at it is we need to make sure that when we get this bill done and there can be no excuses for failure here. | ||
| Otherwise, it'd be a $4 trillion tax increase. | ||
| All the things that President Trump ran on, including, by the way, funding border operations and deporting people is all part of this, too. | ||
| The defense, you know, the Golden Dome and the things of having kind of an America first foreign policy is included in this. | ||
| So I think that's a good way to look at it because we're taking into account all those priorities and they're probably going to be in this one bill. | ||
| And the hope is that the House moves by. | ||
| Memorial Day on that, and that the Senate uses that June working period then to get this thing done. | ||
| That's the hope, and that's what we're working towards. | ||
| So then there's going to be a very curious note from Klein here in the studio. | ||
| It has nothing to do with this interview. | ||
| So then there's going to be potentially a bill signing in October. | ||
| In the fall? | ||
| So we're looking at the summer to lock this in, and then we're going to be able to see President Trump's agenda codified in the early fall. | ||
| Yeah, or summer, the heat of the summer. | ||
| I mean, our hope is by the 4th of July that we'd be completely done with all of this. | ||
| And by the way... | ||
| Another thing no one's talking about. | ||
| We actually, if we did it in one bill, we would have the opportunity to use the reconciliation process. | ||
| Because essentially, in the 1970s, under the Budget Reconciliation Act, you can use this procedure that's only a simple majority in the Senate. | ||
| Normally, you need 60 votes. | ||
| We can use it a couple more times. | ||
| So if we do the work and get it done in a reasonable amount of time, we can get back at it. | ||
| Now, you know, it can't be... | ||
| Heavily policy. | ||
| It has to be tax and budget savings related. | ||
| But it means that we can get back to work on another package and continue to ride that momentum. | ||
| And I think that deliver on the things that President Trump talked about. | ||
| And that's going to be so important. | ||
| I think, I've only been here a couple years, and I don't know how long I'll be in the Senate, but it could be, and this is how I look at it, it could be that these are the most consequential two years of any of the time that I'll serve, or anybody that's here altogether, right? | ||
| In this historic comeback, I mean, no one alive has seen something like this where he was in office and out of office and back in office. | ||
| Won, you know, in a landslide electorally, won the popular vote. | ||
| All the battleground states was very clear about the things that he wanted to accomplish. | ||
| Border security, bringing down prices, being, you know, energy dominant and respected on the world stage. | ||
| We can do all those things. | ||
| And if we do those things, now that we have this broad working, you know, Multi-ethnic, working-class party. | ||
| It's a bigger base than we've ever had before. | ||
| We've got to make sure people turn out. | ||
| That's one of the challenges. | ||
| But if we can deliver, and the economy is going well, and we've secured the border, and we're respected, and we're not everywhere all at once all the time like neoliberals and neoconservatives want to be, and we actually have a restrained foreign policy that puts America first, that's what the American people want. | ||
| And we can build on the majorities. | ||
| If you don't do that... | ||
| People get upset. | ||
| And, you know, that's probably a recipe for losing the House and maybe eventually the Senate. | ||
| So there's a lot on the line. | ||
| I think everybody understands the stakes. | ||
| I certainly do. | ||
| And there's a sense of urgency associated with that. | ||
| Well, you know, you talk about you're on the Judiciary Committee. | ||
| And his last question here, just because it's been bubbling up right across the Internet, you're on the Judiciary Committee. | ||
| Famously, Dick Durbin halted the release of the Epstein client list on the Judiciary Committee. | ||
| Has there been any motion for that? | ||
| That would just be I just. | ||
| People almost make fun of this show for how often we ask this question, but it's just a simple, basic, like, is my federal government covering up for the world's largest predator ring? | ||
| And we learned from Pambani and Kash Patel that, yes, they have tens of thousands of videos that they're going through. | ||
| Yes, there is an obscene amount of evidence that... | ||
| Nobody's ever seen from Jeffrey Epstein. | ||
| And we just want clarity on this, and we want to know that our tax dollars weren't going to protect these pederasts. | ||
| And I think this is kind of a basic, simple trust episode, right? | ||
| Like exercise for us with our government. | ||
| Well, you've got to remember. | ||
| Yeah, no, no. | ||
| That's my perspective. | ||
| Look, you've got to remember the job I had before this. | ||
| As you mentioned at the beginning of the show, I was Attorney General, and so there wasn't anybody more aggressive in the country in taking on The excesses of government, whether it's the vaccine mandates or the Missouri versus Biden censorship case where we uncovered a lot of things that people labeled a conspiracy theory before Elon Musk had even bought Twitter. | ||
| So that's where my focus is. | ||
| I do think that Cash Patel and Pam Bondi, who I have faith in, they're very serious about this. | ||
| I think they understand that people, that not only is it about the information. | ||
| That will be gleaned from it. | ||
| But to your point, it is about restoring trust in these agencies that have lied to people for too long when they said, oh, we're not targeting Catholics. | ||
| And it turns out there's a memo saying we're actually targeting traditional Catholics who attend Latin mass and we're seeking people who will be spies in churches. | ||
| So that's where they're coming from. | ||
| I think they understand how important it is to have full disclosure here. | ||
| I mean, there's obviously some privacy issues related to minors. | ||
| That's everything I've been told. | ||
| Nobody's asking for that. | ||
| We're just asking for the list. | ||
| We're just asking for the list of presidents, prime ministers, billionaires, and bankers. | ||
| Yeah, there's no reason any of that stuff should be secret. | ||
| And you would vote to release that information on your committee? | ||
| 100%. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, that's cool. | ||
| Senator, one final thing. | ||
| We think it's very cool that you have the fighter jet, the F-16 behind you, and that those were the same planes that were flanking President Trump when he entered Qatari airspace here. | ||
| And I'm not sure if you did that on purpose, but it's freaking awesome. | ||
| Well, I would tell you, working with President Trump, St. Louis is going to be building the new F-47. | ||
| So the next generation fighter will be built in St. Louis. | ||
| Buy Missourians for the next generation aircraft that'll go faster, further, see further. | ||
| It's just, it's an exciting time. | ||
| And by the way, this is about peace through strength. | ||
| You have to have that level of deterrence. | ||
| So yeah, those were cool images to see. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, yeah, by the way, those are F-15s that were built in St. Louis too. | ||
| So we're very proud of that. | ||
| We want more of that in this country. | ||
| A lot of massive Ws. | ||
| Thank you for being on the program, Senator. | ||
| Everybody go follow the great Senator and his Cardinals. | ||
| Here he is on the field, it looks like. | ||
| First pitch. | ||
| That was the first pitch. | ||
| And I'll tell you, I really don't get nervous about anything anymore. | ||
| But walking up there, the last thought that crossed my mind was the downside here is much bigger than the upside. | ||
| But I did throw a strike. | ||
| I did throw a strike, so it came through. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Our producers will be finding that footage, and we will play it next time you are on the program. | ||
| We'll prove it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nice. | |
| We might provide that for you. | ||
| Well, please. | ||
| Please. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| We'll do it, and then we're entering high season. | ||
| High baseball season, and so we're very excited about that. | ||
| The great senator from the state of Missouri showing up for you. | ||
| The Show Me State. | ||
| You should show up for him and follow him. | ||
| 222,000 Americans. | ||
| Can't be wrong. | ||
| Get in there. | ||
| Thank you, senator. | ||
| Thanks, brother. | ||
| Take care. | ||
| you you Ladies and gentlemen, who do we bring on to talk about these... | ||
| Fascinating plays that Donald Trump is making on the world stage. | ||
| Well, probably a man who understands the world stage and the powers and forces underneath it. | ||
| Tectonic plates shifting right now. | ||
| The great Mike Benz joins the program. | ||
| Bye now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bye now. | |
| you you you you Mike, what's up, dude? | ||
| Everything's good. | ||
| You know, if you end up cutting that reel with Senator Schmidt, you should... | ||
| You should juxtapose it against the Tony Fauci attempt to throw out the first pitch. | ||
| I've seen Senator Smith on the congressional baseball field for the Republican versus Democrat game, and I have to imagine, I've seen him in action. | ||
| He's a pretty good baseball player, and when you put that against Tony Fauci and the knuckleball gone wrong, I watch that sometimes for fun. | ||
| Put it up. | ||
| Just put it up. | ||
| It's right there. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
| We got it. | ||
| We got it. | ||
| Just give us a 30-second turnaround here. | ||
| Okay, here we go. | ||
| Here it comes. | ||
| Dr. Fauci in what is the worst vaccine ad ever. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| And this guy was on the baseball field. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Tony Fauci, even during COVID, he was going to baseball games. | |
| Okay. | ||
| They're so impressive. | ||
| These are the people that tried to run the world. | ||
| They're so impressive. | ||
| It's like he put the mask over his eyes. | ||
| They're so smart. | ||
| These people ran the world, Mike. | ||
| And now their days are over. | ||
| They ran it in the same direction. | ||
| They threw the ball. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| They just threw it completely sideways. | ||
| Donald Trump resetting everything. | ||
| We just hammered the table this morning on President Trump saying in Saudi Arabia, Yesterday that the neocons and the globalist world builders build nothing. | ||
| They just destroy. | ||
| And it is time for you to have self-determination. | ||
| And we respect your history. | ||
| We respect what this country is. | ||
| And we want to simply partner with you in ways that we can be harmonious. | ||
| It's like just music to our ears. | ||
| Like the angels singing. | ||
| And now Trump, the first president in Qatar. | ||
| And that seems to be going really well. | ||
| Mike, the floor is yours. | ||
| What is the president doing right now? | ||
| I thought that speech that you referenced is one of the most beautiful speeches I've heard Trump give since the Mount Rushmore speech at the end of 2020. | ||
| It was shocking. | ||
| I mean, it really showed a level of being dialed in to the tone of the base of this country. | ||
| And I have to imagine, if you're sitting in Saudi Arabia, or if you are a member of really any part of the That you are listening to that speech and thinking, my God, there's a president of the United States who actually understands me and respects me and dignifies me. | ||
| And it was absolutely incredible. | ||
| I mean, it really was. | ||
| I don't remember the last time I've heard anything like that, even from Trump. | ||
| So I thought it was very impressive. | ||
| Trump certainly has a way with connecting with folks, especially I think the alliance between him and Saudi Arabia has been such a fascinating one to follow. | ||
| You've had this real beef between the Biden foreign policy establishment and Saudi Arabia. | ||
| The Atlantic Council white papers would refer to Mohammed, I'm sorry, yeah, MBS bin Salman as, you know, a... | ||
| As Putin adjacent, we very nearly labeled him an attempted dictator that we should overthrow on par with Putin. | ||
| There was a strange affair with the Khashoggi, the tragic case where Khashoggi was killed in the embassy there, and although Snowden... | ||
| I believe came out and said that Khashoggi was actually plotting a coup and attempting to potentially overthrow the government of Saudi Arabia and there's a lot of weird spy versus spy stuff in the background there but the fact is that Saudi Arabia was massively threatened by the Iran deal under Barack Obama and Israel was threatened on the security side at least as the Tone of the diplomatic posturing was that Saudi Arabia was | ||
| scared it was going to be economically cut out of the oil and gas in the region, and Israel was scared that it was going to be threatened on security grounds because the Iran deal would allow Iran to become wealthy and therefore fund Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis at the time. | ||
| And so this drew Saudi Arabia and Israel into a budding alliance for the first time. | ||
| Really, in the two nations' history in an overt way, that has undergone some rockiness. | ||
| But the fact is, Trump is trying to have his Saudi Arabia and Israel, too, with Qatar in the mix. | ||
| So we've got $600 billion of investment now committed to from Saudi Arabia to the U.S. This adds to something like $200 billion from Japan. | ||
| And we've seen, I think, must be north of a trillion dollars of foreign investment in the U.S. that Trump has secured. | ||
| This is, of course, in tandem with the tariff and trade policies, the idea of if we're going to compete with China, we should be having foreign countries manufacturing their goods and investing in infrastructure here rather than in China. | ||
| So you've seen strings of successes. | ||
| The Qatar development has been surprising to me. | ||
| Very interesting in terms of the, you know, 40 chests of it all. | ||
| Qatar is obviously renowned as the leading ally of Iran. | ||
| Trump was a pressure-on-Iran maximalist during his first term, got out of the Iran deal, put maximum sanctions on Iran, decimated, completely decimated their economy, forbade foreign countries from being able to buy their oil and gas. | ||
| He fought off China's ability to get oil and gas from Iran. | ||
| But then when Biden won, two months into his term, China signed a $400 billion oil and gas deal with Iran, which is one of those things that they got bargain basement discount prices for the world's second largest supply of oil. | ||
| And it was another one of those foreign policy fumbles. | ||
| From Biden world, it's almost like they want China to win in Iran. | ||
| They want China to win in Brazil. | ||
| They want China to win in Europe. | ||
| And Trump is slowly turning the tide on about 50% of that. | ||
| We're hearing that Trump has also negotiated a tariff ceasefire, a tariff deal with China as well. | ||
| But the Qatar development is... | ||
| Interesting as well because obviously there are rumblings about discord with Netanyahu and Qatar being such a close ally of Iran has sparked this kind of diplomatic and culture war spillover into the underlying issues around Israel-Palestine and a potential war with Iran. | ||
| So it's fascinating to watch it all unfold. | ||
| I don't know how much of it is real because Trump does so much signaling. | ||
| It's hard to tell how much of it is symbolic, how much of it is, I don't want to say scripted, but how much of it is, you know, could be a phone call saying, okay, I'm going to say this publicly, but just so you're aware, we'll continue the backchannel conversations. | ||
| The thing that most concerns me, because I know a lot of people are talking about the Qatar plane in this $400 million We pay for Qatar's defense in the sense that we have one of our largest military facilities in the entire Middle East right there in Qatar. | ||
| Qatar is not some hostile foreign adversary. | ||
| They work with us. | ||
| They're partners in the region. | ||
| The thing that concerned me, though, is maybe if he had stopped there, I would have said, okay, I see the logic of it. | ||
| The issue is, to me, is that he said it would be serving as a temporary Air Force One. | ||
| Benny, you and I have talked a lot about the plots against, for example, from Ryan Routh, and he's also reported other plots using surface-to-air missiles and RPGs to shoot down Trump's plane. | ||
| Ryan Routh, of course, was working, we're told, with Iranian networks and Mexican human smugglers to get these RPGs or ballistic folks. | ||
| And then you saw the same thing. | ||
| There was a plot reported. | ||
| The FBI said they thwarted a Mexican smuggling attempt with surface-to-air missiles. | ||
| Actually, I'm not sure if that came from the FBI. | ||
| It was reported in media. | ||
| And so we're seeing all these. | ||
| They've already prescripted the idea of an Iranian attack on Air Force One. | ||
| And given that Qatar is seen as indistinguishable from Iran by so many on the world stage, if something were to happen to that plane, God forbid, or if it gives a bad incentive to tamper with that plane, because if something happens to that plane while it's serving as Air Force One, Then we definitely get war with Iran. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Well, I mean, that's obviously would be a massive downside. | ||
| I think it would be a downside. | ||
| I think it would benefit very few. | ||
| It'd benefit, obviously, very evil people. | ||
| And I'm not sure that I'd see the rationale in, like, Qatar sabotaging the plane itself. | ||
| I mean, that would mean probably instant war, right, with the entire region. | ||
| But yeah, I mean, I can, like, I guess I can understand it. | ||
| There is a wall of skulls in the plane that we discovered, which is very interesting. | ||
| I'm not sure if you've seen this. | ||
| It leads into my next question about, obviously, the bounty on heads of people. | ||
| Donald Trump meeting with somebody, a Syrian leader, who had a $10 million bounty on his head from the State Department. | ||
| Now Donald Trump's shaking hands with him. | ||
| This is an easy way for Trump to make, like, for Trump to make $10 million. | ||
| I mean, you know, if I were Trump, obviously. | ||
| The guy's right in front of you. | ||
| But here... | ||
| Okay, first off, Mike, here's the skulls. | ||
| Okay, let's stay on track. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Skulls! | |
| Let's go! | ||
| Here's the skulls on the plane. | ||
| This is real. | ||
| This is from the... | ||
| You're gonna have to go up, please, to the actual original photo. | ||
| And so here's the photo. | ||
| There's like a dining hall or what looks like a club room on the plane. | ||
| And it does have skulls on the wall. | ||
| Which, I don't know, Mike, maybe to your point, this might be a bad omen if the walls are made of skulls. | ||
| I think I've seen this one in Indiana Jones. | ||
| Is this real? | ||
| Yes, this is real. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Where are these coming from? | |
| Here's the zoom in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Get out of here. | |
| What am I looking at? | ||
| You know, it's just a skull wall. | ||
| Doesn't your plane have a skull wall, Mike? | ||
| Like, obviously. | ||
| Or are you poor? | ||
| Like, okay, you know. | ||
| Are they golden skulls? | ||
| Yeah, your plane didn't come with a golden skull wall, idiot. | ||
| All right. | ||
| You know, okay, well, you know, this is me for flying in coach. | ||
| I never realized first class had... | ||
| Well, okay, so in my head I'm trying to think... | ||
| I mean, this is straight out of Spectre, right? | ||
| This is straight out of James Bond. | ||
| Like, this is a set piece from James Bond. | ||
| Like, I've actually seen this before. | ||
| Mike, there is a question here. | ||
| The question is, a guy who also has a skull wall, the leader of Syria, meeting with President Trump, and I know you're sounding off on this. | ||
| This man had a $10 million bounty on his head, and here he is with the president. | ||
| Interesting times. | ||
| Maybe a skull wall in his future. | ||
| Well, I was trying to find a way to transmute it into something potentially optimistic, and I was thinking, you know, in Mexican culture, these skull ceremonies and holidays signify life. | ||
| But then that made me think about the Mexican surface-to-air plot missiles, the FBI. | ||
| I'm thinking, oh, that's not where I'm going with this is Mexico, and then we're hearing about Mexican surface-to-air missiles against Trump's plane. | ||
| That doesn't exactly give me confidence. | ||
| But look, I'll say this. | ||
| I think you're right. | ||
| It is oddly beautiful as a set piece. | ||
| But on the topic of Syria, well, it's fascinating. | ||
| There's a lot going on there. | ||
| Obviously, the CIA ran its... | ||
| What we're told is the most expensive CIA operation in CIA history, called Operation Timber Sycamore, to fund and train the jihadi terrorist groups during the Obama era. | ||
| Trump got in power, vowed to eliminate ISIS. | ||
| His State Department, I believe it was in May, June 2017, put a $10 million bounty directly on Muhammad al-Jolani's head. | ||
| He no longer goes by Mohammed al-Jelani. | ||
| He changed his name to Ahmed al-Sharah. | ||
| So, I didn't realize this, by the way. | ||
| You can evidently get out of a CIA predator drone strike simply by changing the name that you refer to yourself in the database. | ||
| This is a great life hack, by the way. | ||
| Benny, you and I might need this. | ||
| He should try and change his pronouns. | ||
| Then he'd really be set free. | ||
| I'm no longer Mike Benz. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm Mohammed Al-Benza. | |
| Okay? | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right? | |
| Don't drone strike me, bro. | ||
| Mohammed Ben-Gazi. | ||
| Ben-Gazi. | ||
| Yes, Ben-Gazi. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| And I'll change it to a skull wall. | ||
| What's fascinating is, what would you do if you were Trump in this situation? | ||
| Because I've thought about this a lot. | ||
| Trump was very, very harsh on... | ||
| Mohammed al-Jelani and the Syrian terrorist groups with his own military who wanted to back the... | ||
| Because, you know, I mean, for folks who have not heard this yet, al-Jelani here, shaking President Trump's hand, was literally an ISIS commander from, I think, 2006 to 2013, and also a relatively high-ranking member of al-Qaeda. | ||
| That was the reason that Trump put a bounty on his head in 2017. | ||
| And then, because of backing from our own deep state, who effectively lied to President Trump about our own activities in Syria, after Trump lost in 2020, the generals came out and said, We were constantly playing shell games with the numbers, that's a direct quote, in order to mislead the president about our military presence there and who we were backing and how we were doing it. | ||
| This was a major Biden foreign policy plank to topple Bashar al-Assad. | ||
| There were false flag terrorism attacks on our own soil in 2015 under Obama in order to justify this war. | ||
| The famous Garland, Texas, First homegrown domestic ISIS terrorist incident came out two years after the fact that the FBI had actually paid an informant $125,000 to become that person's best friend and tell him to, quote, tear up Texas, and was so explicit that even the ISIS guy said, hey, buddy, chill out. | ||
| And then the FBI was actually tailing the ISIS attacker in Garland, Texas. | ||
| On his way, they followed him in an unmarked car from his drive to the apartment to the place that he would later shoot up, taking pictures and videos the whole time. | ||
| Then they hid that evidence from defense counsel during the attempted murder trial, and it only came out because of leaks from the FBI field office in Arizona. | ||
| So the whole thing has been afoot with mischief. | ||
| But the fact is, is now Al Jelani is promising That if the U.S. lifts sanctions, that they will use AT&T for their IT infrastructure rather than Chinese Huawei, that they will allow ExxonMobil and Chevron to have partnerships with the Syrian oil. | ||
| And if you remember, Trump is very explicit. | ||
| The only reason we continue to be in Syria is for the oil. | ||
| We're taking the oil, famously, he said. | ||
| So essentially, Al Jelani now... | ||
| Trump inherited this. | ||
| This was the last month of the Biden administration. | ||
| They gave everything they could to help ISIS take over Syria. | ||
| But now that ISIS occupies Syria, Trump has inherited this deck. | ||
| And you've got two choices. | ||
| You can sort of continue this war on ISIS, which in a lot of ways is a war on ourselves. | ||
| It's a war on our own creation and something that we've been paying for and subsidizing through USAID. | ||
| Through the Central Intelligence Agency. | ||
| Or you can kind of settle for the wins that you can achieve, such as getting them to promise that they'll wear suits and that they will adopt certain Western liberal internationalist aesthetics and functionally turn over the country's economy to the U.S. Rather than to China, | ||
| as China is attempting to broker and further its own influence in the Middle East. | ||
| So, you know, there's a kind of deal with the devil aspect of this. | ||
| And Trump is, you know, Trump's a dealmaker. | ||
| I mean, I guess it makes a lot of sense. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| We go from stop this terrorist, $10 million reward, to the guy wearing a suit, changed his name. | ||
| Now he's shaking hands with Trump. | ||
| I don't mind it, man. | ||
| I think I see the pragmatic value in all of it, and I also would much rather this nation be in the craw and influence vectors of us through our Saudi partnerships than Chinese or Russian or Iranian influence. | ||
| I mean, the world is a nasty and brutal place, and there are realities to it, and those realities shouldn't be covered up. | ||
| When you cover them up, you get the Epstein situation. | ||
| You posted this last week. | ||
| Last thing I want to talk to you about, Mike. | ||
| You posted this last week with Pam Bondi, who had to come out, and finally, because James Comer came on our show and just went score-shirt. | ||
| He's like, they have nothing. | ||
| They have no Epstein evidence. | ||
| Nobody held on to any of that Epstein evidence. | ||
| It's gone. | ||
| There were shredders in front of the DOJ and FBI. | ||
| It's all gone, right? | ||
| And Pam Bondi was asked about that, and she comes out, and she says, no, no, no, we have tens of thousands of videos. | ||
| Mike Benton's over the top. | ||
| New messaging by the FBI-DOJ. | ||
| Epstein delay is due to... | ||
| Parsing of so many predatorial pornographic videos, this messaging is off. | ||
| The central question needing no vids at all. | ||
| A very quick answer. | ||
| If they want to tell us, why was the prior DOJ told to back off because Epstein belonged to intelligence? | ||
| You're, of course, referencing Alex Acosta there when Epstein was caught dead to rights in underage prostitution activities here in the state of Florida. | ||
| And please expound, Mike. | ||
| What's happening with this S-Saga? | ||
| I've gotten a chilling response, quite frankly, from people that were gung-ho about releasing everything. | ||
| And I can't quite put my finger on it. | ||
| So please expound for us. | ||
| Well, I was told by folks at the FBI that the FBI is likely not in possession. | ||
| of files relating to Epstein and intelligence. | ||
| I believe that those would be held either at the, well certainly at the Justice Department layer, but then either at the CIA layer as well, or then there's the question of whether or not intelligence meant just domestic, or if it meant just international, or if it meant both. | ||
| And I believe that the answer to this is both. | ||
| there's, there's almost no way to look at Jeffrey Epstein's life history and see, non involvement with the central intelligence agency. | ||
| The fact is, is when, uh, Les Wexner's a tax attorney, Arthur Shapiro was murdered the day before he was set to testify to the IRS while he was the, uh, tax accountant for the, uh, Wexner financial empire. | ||
| And then Jeffrey Epstein, who was partnered with the Saudi Khashoggi Network during Iran-Contra, running the arms to the Iran part of Iran-Contra. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein then goes and negotiates the transfer of Southern Air Transport, the CI proprietary airline. | ||
| That was used in Miami and in Mena, Arkansas, where Bill Clinton was the governor. | ||
| From Miami straight to Rickenbacker Air Force Base in Columbus, Ohio. | ||
| How does one get to negotiate the transfer of a CI proprietary airline? | ||
| That was a literal CI proprietary airline without being in the business. | ||
| How did Jeffrey Epstein get a... | ||
| Leased directly from the U.S. State Department for the second largest residential building in New York City. | ||
| In the 1990s, Jeffrey Epstein, as part of the diplomatic showdown with Iran in the 1990s, the U.S. seized this vast presidential semi-palace in New York owned by the government of Iran. | ||
| And then promptly leased it to none other than Jeffrey Epstein. | ||
| And then, I mean, how does the State Department become your personal landlord after seizing it from another country? | ||
| And then Jeffrey Epstein got in a kerfuffle with the State Department over this because Jeffrey Epstein deceived the State Department and subleased it out to the defense lawyer for the French Connection and Pizza Connection cases, the famous two cases of CIA drug running. | ||
| Through the Italian mafia on the eastern seaboard of the U.S., through pizza shops and on the banks of the Merseilles in France. | ||
| And so you have this network that goes back a very long time with U.S. intelligence with Epstein. | ||
| But the fact is, is there seems to be pretty obvious connections to Israeli intelligence, potentially British intelligence, potentially Saudi intelligence. | ||
| But all of this could be asked and answered. | ||
| I think at the Justice Department layer. | ||
| I mean, at least tell us if it's true or false. | ||
| If the official story is Alex Acosta lied, because remember, Alex Acosta was the Secretary of Labor. | ||
| Now, the Department of Labor is the union department in the United States. | ||
| And I don't think I need to tell the audience, if you've seen enough Godfather movies, about the links between organized... | ||
| Labor and organized crime. | ||
| That is, the unions are the principal means of control for organized crime to be able to run transport lanes, to be able to smuggle things, to be able to control the import and export on docks, to be able to transport them on railways, also to serve as muscle. | ||
| I can talk at length about all of that. | ||
| And Alex Acosta was also the dean of the law school of FIU, Florida International University. | ||
| Which is a major hotbed for CIA activity. | ||
| For example, Juan Guaido, who was the CIA-backed candidate to topple the government of Maduro, was actually announced to be the president of Venezuela, I think despite only receiving something like 7% of the vote, at the State of the Union address, standing ovation from both sides of the aisle in 2020. | ||
| What I'm saying is Alex Acosta is a guy who would probably know that. | ||
| Given that he was the dean at FIU, given that he was the secretary of the Department of Labor, and given that he was Jeffrey Epstein's first prosecutor. | ||
| And if he comes out and says, I was told to back off Epstein because he belonged to intelligence and to leave it alone, I don't think that he would throw that out haphazardly. | ||
| He was fighting for his political life at the time when he made this statement. | ||
| He was forced effectively because of this treatment over Epstein to step down as secretary of labor. | ||
| In 2019. | ||
| So I wonder, what is Alex Acosta doing now? | ||
| What are the Alex Acosta files like at the Justice Department? | ||
| Now, the Justice Department is above the FBI. | ||
| So I don't fault Cash or Dan Bongino or these folks. | ||
| I believe what I'm hearing from various sources that the FBI may not be in possession of this. | ||
| I believe that would be at the Justice Department layer. | ||
| The question is, Is Pam Bondi... | ||
| I mean, here's the thing. | ||
| They can either come out and tell us, listen, Alex Acosta lied. | ||
| He didn't really belong to intelligence. | ||
| That was a smokescreen to protect his own political life. | ||
| There is nothing there. | ||
| Or they can say, here are the files. | ||
| Here's what Alex Acosta was referring to. | ||
| Or we spoke with Alex Acosta as part of our... | ||
| You know, we put him under oath and we got him in a transcribed interview to tell us everything that he meant. | ||
| Who told him that he belonged to intelligence? | ||
| What was the name of the person or individual inside or outside the U.S. government who told Alex Acosta, the prosecutor, that he belonged to intelligence? | ||
| Who told him to back off? | ||
| They can tell us that information. | ||
| They have to say something at this point, is what I'm driving at. | ||
| You can't just stay mum on this, because that looks the worst. | ||
| I mean, that looks like you're protecting someone, and that looks like there's something so corrupt inside the Justice Department that it corrupts many of the other attempts to clean up the Justice Department, because no matter how many people you fire, and I think they've done great work. | ||
| I think Harmeet Dillon's done fantastic work. | ||
| I think Pam Bondi has done great work in firing a bunch of the 15 of these J6 prosecutors and a number of other actions. | ||
| Wouldn't it then be Tulsi Gabbard or John Ratcliffe then who answers for this? | ||
| Well, that's a good point. | ||
| My understanding is the Justice Department is holding on to this. | ||
| And I don't... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Strange grenade to hold on to if the actual answers are across the Potomac at the CIA. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| In fact, this is one of these things where I feel that there should be some sort of... | ||
| I was joking and calling it Fridays with the FBI, but there should be a sort of beer with the Justice Department. | ||
| Because that would be a great question to ask Pam Bondi directly. | ||
| That, you know, is following up about Alex Acosta and his statements about intelligence, and then following up with the CIA. | ||
| And we should, the problem is, is everything else begins to look a little bit like, you know, dressing up, I was going to say, you know, putting silk on a pig, but that's a little too, I think, extreme. | ||
| But basically... | ||
| It looks like you're beating around the big problem. | ||
| If there's this big issue that you ran on, you campaigned on, that everybody seemed to be in the know about it. | ||
| We heard Cash testify in Congress a few days ago that he believed that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself in prison, which maybe that is Cash's genuine belief. | ||
| And again, I think Cash is doing, on the whole, a fantastic job. | ||
| But I would say probably 80-90% of the country at this point does not believe that story, thinks that there's something very strange about both of the security cameras malfunctioning, the visitor log pages being torn out of the prison book, both of the security guards either falling asleep or walking off while that happened. | ||
| So there's a big fart under the blanket here, and the refusal to at least waft the blanket. | ||
| It's just not a good smell. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We were pretty shocked about that with Cash. | ||
| We were like, wait a second. | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| Because you've been on the show saying that he didn't kill himself. | ||
| So what do you now know? | ||
| And if you've come across new information, then by all means, please share it. | ||
| That's owed an explanation. | ||
| I think we're all... | ||
| And at this point, Mike, it's weird because what's happening here is such – what's happening here is it's almost like people who were not part of these crimes, right? | ||
| So it's like cash didn't cover for Epstein. | ||
| Pam Bondi is not on the Epstein list. | ||
| Donald Trump has an immaculate record with Jeffrey Epstein. | ||
| Put that on trial because we have the clips of the lawyers that tried to lock up Epstein in Palm Beach saying Trump's our only friend. | ||
| He's the only person in this community that testified against Epstein. | ||
| We have James Patterson on camera being like, listen, I'm the most respected author in America. | ||
| I physically watched Donald Trump escort Epstein out of his club and kick him out permanently for life, right? | ||
| Like, Trump has an immaculate record here. | ||
| What's the point of protecting this operation? | ||
| Like, it's not these people. | ||
| You know, this isn't going to blow back on anyone. | ||
| Alex Acosta isn't part of the administration anymore. | ||
| So just, like, out with it. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Like, it actually strangely does. | ||
| Logistical and strategic damage to the Trump administration by not just being, by not being out with it, or if the evidence was destroyed, say that. | ||
| You know, hey, listen, like, seriously, these files are empty. | ||
| And there's criminal, like, we're going to have to, like, go log in and figure out who emptied them, but we got nothing, right? | ||
| Like, I just don't understand the strategy here. | ||
| That's what I don't get. | ||
| Why protect anyone in this operation? | ||
| Well, it's worth, and again, I think just because I've had conversations with folks at FBI, but I haven't at DOJ, my understanding is the FBI genuinely does not have, at least this is what sources are telling me, does not have files on this, which makes me look upward to DOJ and CIA. | ||
| But the fact is, look, Pam Bondi was the attorney general for the state of Florida. | ||
| And that was exactly where Epstein was tried. | ||
| That was where Alex Acosta was the prosecutor in Florida. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein was all over Florida. | ||
| Jeffrey Epstein, as I mentioned, had all those involvements in South Florida and in Miami. | ||
| And I mentioned the transfer of Southern Air Transport, the CIA airliner from Florida. | ||
| So I would think that... | ||
| Pam Bondi would know a fair amount about this network just through that alone coming into it. | ||
| And I don't know. | ||
| I could see a lot of shrapnel getting on Trump World over this, actually, from strange directions. | ||
| Not on Trump himself, but that could be it. | ||
| There could be something more benign. | ||
| But the fact is, the longer time goes by... | ||
| The more they're throwing up things like having to sift through CP files and things like that. | ||
| That's not what anybody really has been interested about this. | ||
| I think it's been... | ||
| Never once called for that. | ||
| Never. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| It's been stipulated that this guy was involved in these things. | ||
| It's presumably why he's invited... | ||
| We say blur the entire image and just show us Bill Clinton's face, right? | ||
| You can just give us the list. | ||
| That's actually what people would like is some accountability here. | ||
| And then ultimately, the longer that they hold out, the worse it gets. | ||
| And the more it looks like this thing goes deeper than we ever thought. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Well, that may be a question for Tulsi, right? | ||
| Maybe a question for John Ratcliffe, if that's where the actual smoking guns, if that's where the actual evidence... | ||
| But it should really be zeroed into that intelligence question, in my view, because... | ||
| At least give us the answer on that, because that gives us the answer to whether he was protected. | ||
| And I could see there being a bifurcation. | ||
| This happened in the run to 9-11, where the CIA was hiding things from the FBI. | ||
| The FBI was complaining that they didn't have the intelligence they were supposed to be getting from the CIA. | ||
| I could see it being genuinely true that the FBI does not have information on this, that it was above that layer. | ||
| But the fact is... | ||
| The Justice Department would be the keeper of that information. | ||
| And I've just never seen Pam Bondi straight asked, was Alex Acosta being truthful or was he lying? | ||
| What files have you found? | ||
| What can you tell us? | ||
| Can you commit that you will disclose all Justice Department files around the negotiation of the plea deal? | ||
| I mean, presumably, if the lead prosecutor was told to back off, Because he belonged to intelligence. | ||
| Federal prosecutor. | ||
| Federal prosecutor. | ||
| That there's going to be, if not a paper trail, emails, communications. | ||
| I mean, every email, every text message. | ||
| And frankly, every person that Alex Acosta was talking to at that time, in and around the DOJ and beyond, should be part of this inquiry so that we can know, not if he was a... | ||
| child sex trafficker if he was a protected one by US or foreign intelligence. | ||
| Did our tax dollars pay for these heinous crimes? | ||
| I think that's important, and it's something that we have a right to know as the people footing the bill for this kind of stuff, and this is what actual accountability looks like. | ||
| Mike Benz, I know that you texted me right before the show, and you said that you're getting a skull wall installed in your apartment right behind you there. | ||
| So you can do, so it's going to be like a, you know, more live, you know, your lives and your hits are going to have like that extra punch to them, right? | ||
| And so I know you have to go and let the installers go in and put all the skulls in there. | ||
| Not going to ask where the skulls come from, right? | ||
| I mean, that's just like a personal question for you. | ||
| It's a personal decoration question, so it's none of my business, quite frankly. | ||
| But I respect it, you know? | ||
| I respect it, and I know you're taking a cue from President Trump's new plane, so. | ||
| Thanks, Benny. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| You've inspired me. | ||
| I actually might. | ||
| I'm going to go to Timu now or Amazon and see if I can find my best. | ||
| And then look, maybe I'll get a deal with AT&T. | ||
| Ryan Rouse is not too far from you. | ||
| Just text him. | ||
| I'm sure he'll be able to smuggle some in for you. | ||
| I'll hit up my Ukrainian contact. | ||
| It's getting dark. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to see the light, go to Mike Benz's X page. | ||
| He's got a million. | ||
| Followers. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| He's a millionaire. | ||
| He's got a million followers on X. He's even got the light shining there in his cover image. | ||
| And you'll get quite a bit of light there from Mike Benz. | ||
| And in a world of darkness, make sure that you're seeking out people who tell the truth. | ||
| Godspeed, Mike. | ||
| Thanks, Benny. | ||

|
Bye. | |
| you you you you All right, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| What a show! | ||
| Again, a three-hour show. | ||
| We just let her rip. | ||
| We're going to show up for you. | ||
| Thank you for showing up for us. | ||
| You won't find anyone, any show on this, on any platform that loves the audience more and loves the chat more. | ||
| We build the show around you. | ||
| We have a couple of big phone calls that I'm about to make. | ||
| I promise you, some really exciting things are happening. | ||
| Let me give you a quick insight into what the future holds for us and how obsessed we are with you, okay? | ||
| With you. | ||
| And would you please put some chats on screen here? | ||
| Here's what the future is going to hold. | ||
| And we've been working so hard on this, and it's tough because there's a lot of dynamic elements here. | ||
| The future is going to go like this. | ||
| We're going to be sitting inside of the White House, inside of the DOJ, inside of the CIA. | ||
| I'm going to have an iPad with me, right? | ||
| I don't have one with me, but for lack of a better asset, I'm going to have an iPad with me. | ||
| And we're going to have before us, Tulsi or RFK or the president or the vice president? | ||
| Cash or Bongino? | ||
| And that iPad is going to show your comments. | ||
| There they are. | ||
| Those are your comments. | ||
| And we're going to literally just do the entire interview. | ||
| You are going to do the interview. | ||
| You. | ||
| And we're going to take these comments. | ||
| We're going to have producers with us and we're going to ask questions live from the chat. | ||
| You're going to listen to your questions get answered. | ||
| We do get a lot of chats. | ||
| And so maybe we won't be able to get to all of them. | ||
| The reality is we might not be able to get to all of them. | ||
| But we freaking love you. | ||
| And there's no other show on Earth. | ||
| I'm just going to go there. | ||
| I'll just go there. | ||
| I'm so sick and tired of hearing the pedantic written talking points from a phalanx army of producers for various talking heads on big corporate media channels. | ||
| And those questions have nothing to do with what the base cares about, with what you care about. | ||
| They don't have anything to do with what we want to discuss and where we want to go as a country. | ||
| And these questions are important because the questions actually instill within the powerful people what the policies should be because they're getting asked questions about it. | ||
| It makes you think, right? | ||
| Wow, wow. | ||
| Getting a lot of Epstein questions. | ||
| Maybe we should release the Epstein list, right? | ||
| So maybe we should find out more about who tried to kill Trump. | ||
| That's why we keep asking stuff like that. | ||
| Like, that we want to know. | ||
| Anyway, that's what we're building. | ||
| And it's gonna be really fun. | ||
| It's gonna be very exciting. | ||
| We got some big phone calls today on that issue, on that topic. | ||
| And so we just thank you all. | ||
| We love you. | ||
| We love you back. | ||
| Here's the, you know, here's, pointing the wrong way. | ||
| Here's the comments. | ||
| And wouldn't that be fun? | ||
| Like, that would be really neat, right? | ||
| So I'm live with Cash, and I got an iPad in front of me, and it's just the chat. | ||
| And we're just taking questions from the chat. | ||
| And you run the interview. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And so we're working on ways to deliver that. | ||
| And we'll do it live, obviously. | ||
| And that'll be the first time in history anyone will be able to do that. | ||
| Really neat. | ||
| Really cool stuff. | ||
| So that's how much we care about you. | ||
| It's how much we freaking love you. | ||
| We thank you for being part of the Benny Brigade. | ||

| Okay, all right, all right. | ||
| We'll go back to the camelcade. | ||
| You ever seen a camelcade? | ||
| A camel motorcade? | ||
| Most important thing ever. | ||
| It's awesome. | ||
| I think we might actually also get some Easter egg skulls in the motorcade. | ||
| Okay, all right. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Nick's getting shout-outs. | ||

ALX. | |
| The whole freaking squad, man. | ||
| Shout-out. | ||
| You'll meet Colton. | ||
| Colton's brand new video editor and videographer here on the team. | ||
| There's just a stacked team of young creatives and professionals. | ||
| And you support that. | ||
| Again, we're not corporately owned. | ||
| Nobody pays the bills around here. | ||
| We do, actually, by just building a show that is profitable, that we can build out this team. | ||
| We're doing that together, okay? | ||
| And we're doing that because we connect with the audience. | ||
| I'm done talking. | ||
| Sorry for the monologue here. | ||
| Just, I cannot express, it's hard to find words to express our appreciation for this audience. | ||
| We love you all. | ||
| We love you all and we will serve you. | ||
| We will serve you. | ||
| You're not here to serve us. | ||
| We're here to serve you. | ||
| Our verse of the day from James 1, verse 12. Blessed is the one who preserves under trial. | ||
| He stood the test. | ||
| That person will receive the crown of life. | ||
| The Lord has promised those who love him. | ||
| The Bible always promises trials. | ||
| That's what's most important. | ||
| The Bible says life is tough, man. | ||
| Life is just the reality of life. | ||
| You're going to have hardships in life. | ||
| You might get shot in the head, right? | ||
| President Trump, you're going to face... | ||
| You're going to face, if you seek to do great things, you're going to face great trials. | ||
| And I know everybody in this audience seeks to do great things. | ||
| They love their country. | ||
| And this verse says you must withstand those trials. | ||
| You must withstand these tests. | ||
| And you will receive a crown at the end of all of it. | ||
| A real crown. | ||
| Not any of the fake stuff. | ||
| The stuff in Saudi Arabia, Donald Trump, Qatar. | ||
| Like, it's all fake. | ||
| That's all created by man. | ||
| These crowns are created by God. | ||
| Who set the universe and the laws of physics and the dynamics of the Earth in order. | ||
| Who set all the planets on rotation. | ||
| Who created the mathematical and thermodynamic harmony of all creation and life. | ||
| That God's going to give you a crown if you just stay faithful and keep going. | ||
| And so that's what we're going to do with you. | ||
| All right? | ||
| We're going to march on and we're going to win. | ||
| It's your boy Benny. | ||
| See ya. | ||

See ya. | |
| Of a landlouder. | ||
| What have we found? | ||
| It's a cut of brothers from another mother. | ||
| Ahoy, my brothers, your marble is perfecto. |
