Yesterday, I wanted a Minnesota version of the cold open, and Jerry delivered perfectly.
I really like the, what is it, Japanese anime style, Ilhan Omar?
Is it like Pixar?
Pixar Disney Lion King style in Omar.
Oh, man.
Yes, Studio Ghibli.
Okay.
Oh, we are dealing with a Jesse Somali yet.
That's what's happening now in the country.
These, these people, man, they're funny, man.
They're funny.
These Somalis, they're funny.
Ilhan Omar has quite, has had quite a night and quite a morning on the internet.
Ladies and gentlemen, we're going to talk about what we believe in our hearts to be a very curious, what looks like an extremely staged attack on Ilhan Omar.
And I want to just sort of begin, and you know, for everybody that's going to come after us for doing this episode, to say, one, shouldn't attack anyone.
We've never been in favor of people.
For the existence of this show, we have always been in favor of Americans living peaceful, nice lives.
Don't go spray things on members of Congress unless you're being paid or unless you like, unless, you know, you're part you're you're part of it, unless you're part of an op.
And we think that there might be a reason, just like with Jesse Smollett, that Ilhan Omar, well, may want to create a scenario here.
We don't know.
We don't know.
That's just what people are saying, including the president of the United States.
We're going to go through all the evidence on the program and we're not going to take things at face value.
We don't do that on this show.
We live in a post-truth reality where we're just not going to accept official narratives.
The whole like, this is what happened, move along.
Seems a little bit curious to us.
And so we're going to show you what happened with the Ilhan Omar syringe attack last night.
And I guess we'll let you decide, but we're going to jump to the internet and show you what the internet slews have uncovered because hot diggity dam, something hey, something right here.
This is MAGNA country.
This is MAGNA country.
That was the only thing that was missing from last night.
This is MAGA country.
Yeah, okay.
Ooh, boy.
You got some very, very good or very bad acting.
I guess it kind of depends on your perspective.
Today is Wednesday, January 28th, 2026.
Internet erupts after Ilhan Omar is sprayed with a liquid at a town hall.
Now, that absolutely did happen.
Some dude, some bumbling, doofus, fat slob did get up and spray a de minimis amount of liquid on Ilhan Omar last night.
Again, we're going to break it all down.
It's very interesting.
Trump sends dark final warning to Iran, but also says that Ilhan Omar staged her own fake hate crime.
Our president is an all-timer.
He's an all-timer.
He's just an all-timer.
He's just a straight-up first ballot Hall of Famer.
Like, we're going to break this down frame by frame.
This is a Bruder film, this thing.
I've already done my disclaimer.
Don't do this.
I disavow it.
Whatever it is, even if it's a staged, like, it's, it's, it's, don't do it.
Don't do it.
If the dud actually turned out to be real, I want to be on the record to say, like, I said, no matter what, don't jump up and start spraying people with stuff or running after members of Congress.
And, like, no.
Okay, no.
But now that that disclaimer is out of the way, some very strange things happen here.
And we're going to jump into, like, let's just do the top line: five strangest things that occur at this event.
One, this individual, were he actually intent on attacking Ilhan Omar with some type of dangerous liquid, like, why would you spray it directly at her torso?
Why would you run away then?
Immediately jump out of the way and into the arms of Ilhan Omar's security, which he does.
He literally runs right over to Ilhan Omar's security.
It's very odd behavior for an attacker, okay?
It's just strange.
That is what it is, right?
It is what it is.
You know, Matthew Thomas Crooks was aiming for Trump's head.
I'm just saying, like, for an attacker, this is odd behavior.
Then you have Ilhan Omar's behavior.
Look at Ilhan Omar in this clip.
She, instead of reacting like anyone would react, like any human being would react when you get sprayed with a strange liquid.
Dude, if I walked up to you, wherever you are right now, if you're sitting in a cubicle, if I walked up to you and you are in the toll booth that you're working in, or in a drive-through lane, or wherever, if you're just like your home on a couch watching this, and I hit you with a Windex bottle, like a from a Windex bottle, your first reaction, even if you see that it's Windex, is going to be what?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what's that?
Get that off me.
I got to change.
Get that off again.
What are you doing?
You know, like back up, back up, like revulsion that you've been sprayed with some strange liquid.
It's Windex.
Okay?
Ilhan Omar's reaction is not to recoil at all.
In fact, her reaction is to run toward what is allegedly a deranged lunatic man who wished to commit some type of horrible harm to her.
What?
Wait, what?
Ladies out there in the audience, are you serious?
Like, is this have anything to do?
Does this even remotely resemble human nature at all?
That Ilhan Omar just runs toward her attacker.
Then it gets insane, okay?
So even if like all of her initial reaction was all off and all of her instincts were like sideways, Ilhan Omar then goes to her security.
I'm going to play you what happens, okay?
I just broke that part down because it happens in a time span of like 10 seconds.
So now let's break this down just a little bit more, shall we?
I wanted to play that for you.
I'm sorry.
I feel the instinct to stop it.
Every other frame, like a Zapruder.
Take down, and I mustn't.
I must show you the full thing.
That's how it played out.
There are multiple angles of this, of course.
You can see it here.
This is how it played out on Fox's tape.
Let's go ahead and listen.
Here you can see some of the liquid sprayed at her.
Watch this.
See that?
Do you see some of the what looks like?
Kind of clear yellowish liquid that like?
Then she goes and runs after him.
Okay okay uh, this reaction defies all, all like, not only like human instinct, but also self-preservation logic, which is really like the major drivers of all of the human race.
And so let's dive into it.
Uh, Ilhan Omar, after being sprayed with what could have been the bubonic plague, what could have been?
You know, there's acid attacks in the Muslim world.
This happens all the time.
Climb, would you please, pull up, GROK.
The acid attacks in the Muslim world.
Uh oftentimes, women are sprayed with horrible acid that could kill them, that defy that, that scars their face for life.
These are, this is commonplace in the Muslim world.
Uh, who knows what this could have been?
Is this anthrax?
Is it Sars?
I don't know.
It could be.
It could be the worst type again, the worst type of acid that eats through your skin and kills you.
Look at that.
Thousands and thousands and thousands of acid attacks reported in the Muslim world, Bangladesh Pakistan Cambodia uh, India too.
We disavow this, we disavow it okay, but like what i'm saying is it could have Something very bad.
We live in the modern era.
People have access to horrible modern things, and it could have been terrible.
So instead of going to immediately change clothes and then go to the hospital, you know, obviously anyone with self-preservation instinct would say, I'm going to wash my eyes.
I'm going to wash my hands.
I'm going to wash my skin.
I'm going to get in the back of the van.
I'm going to go to the hospital.
I'm going to get these clothes off.
ALX, give me that Caitlin Collins.
Get me that little interview she did afterwards.
Dude, because I know it was like Caitlin Collins played on her show last night on CNN.
Ilhan Omar not only fights with her security in order to stay exactly where she is, she continues her speech for minutes for like 10 more minutes.
Then she does interviews wearing the exact same outfit.
Not only that, what if the guy had something that is like horribly transmissible?
What if it was something that was like really, really dangerous?
And it could have been passed on, some type of awful virus that could have been passed on to all of the people that are Ilhan Omar's supporters.
They know her so well, they're all going, Ilhan, Ilhan, she doesn't have any like care for them.
What about them?
No, instead, she goes and does interviews afterwards talking about how brave she is.
You know, I'm gonna go figure if I am, but I feel okay.
But I feel that it is important for people, whether they are in elected office or not, to allow these people to intimidate us, to make us not fight for our constituents and for the country we love.
And as I said, you know, I've survived war and I'm definitely going to survive intimidation and whatever these people think that they can throw at me because I'm built that way.
She could have been giving the reporter bubonic plague.
What is wrong with these people?
Unless maybe they knew that there was nothing actually dangerous at all.
They're behaving insanely recklessly to the CNN reporter, to the constituents.
And they're also delivering what sure is held to me.
I don't know about you, Klein.
Sure seems like pre-rehearsed lines because she tweeted it at the exact same time.
Same time this was happening, Ilhan Omar goes up with the same lines on Twitter, literally the same thing she had said to the report, a microphone, and now here, I'm okay.
I'm a survivor.
This small agitator isn't going to intimidate me doing work.
I do not let Billies win.
Grateful for my constituents who rallied behind me.
Minnesota strong.
Notice she's gotten ratioed on her own post.
Her own Jesse Somaliette post.
And what does everyone say here?
Hi.
You walked towards the attacker and immediately went on with your speech after being sprayed with a foreign substance instead of a normal human reaction, like say panicking and calling 911 saying you've been poisoned.
No, I don't think, I don't, I don't think we're going to be here for your sob story.
Nobody cares about your victim propaganda.
Please contact the FBI, ASAP.
We need to make sure that we figure out what this substance was and what is your relation to the attack.
You got sprayed with a tablespoon of harmless liquid.
Calm down and drink a nice bottle of fake wine.
Now, people are saying fake wine because earlier this week, we exposed Ilhan Omar's fake winery.
Many people are noted.
That's what sends me.
Many people are saying that maybe this is Ilhan Omar trying to distract from multiple federal and congressional investigations into where the hell all of her money came from.
You know, Ilhan Omar did become the single fastest, richest person in the world.
In a short time span of like five years, she went from a negative $65,000 net worth.
That's because of car loan debt and student loan debt.
We've studied this extensively to being worth something like $30 or $40 million.
My goodness.
How did that happen?
Exactly.
How'd that happen?
We found something very curious when we investigated Ilhan Omar's fake winery.
We'll play you that in just a second.
But I'm not done breaking this clip down yet.
You thought we were going to like just go easy on this.
We ain't going to go easy on this.
Here we go.
Odd.
How did Ilhan Omar, why did Ilhan Omar look right at the guy and then give him a nod before the attack?
That happen?
Yeah, it sure did.
Here you go.
Ilhan Omar looks directly.
Here's a slowed down version, but she looks directly at the attacker and then gives him a nod.
Oh, hmm.
It's a little strange that.
Funniest thing I've seen him all the time, man.
Horribly planned and executed.
I like how she nodded at him before he sprayed the stuff, staged.
Also, he sprayed it directly on her torso instead of her eyes where an actual lunatic would spray it.
Why did Ilhan Omar continue her speech after getting sprayed by a foul-smelling substance?
Anybody else would immediately decontaminate, change clothes, and check into a hospital.
Unless, of course, you knew nothing was happening.
Just like we rehearsed in drama class, bravo.
Why was the camera?
Why were the cameras constantly zooming in on this guy?
Why was this guy behaving like an SNL character?
Sure, it's curious that Ilhan Omar immediately knew that the substance sprayed on her had zero rest to her and everybody else in the room.
I'm calling the I am calling the poison control center.
I'm not just going to continue about my day like nothing happened after some random person sprayed me with something, some crazy person at that.
Y'all, I might have been born, but I wasn't born yesterday.
I wasn't born last night.
I'm not boo-boo the foo foo.
Nobody, literally no one in this world would just allow some crazy person to spray something on the to spray them with something, and then they don't wash their face, they don't wash off their skin, they just continue about their day like nothing happened.
Why do I care more about Joe Biden than Joe Biden does?
Why do I care more about Ilhan Omar than Ilhan Omar does?
What do I mean by that?
Well, I've often called for Joe Biden to drop out of the race regularly because what they were doing to him was clearly elder abuse.
Joe Biden didn't care.
This audience cared more about Joe Biden and his health than Joe Biden did.
What a monster.
I'm the one who's sitting here going, Ilhan, get your butt to an ambulance and go to the hospital and ensure that you weren't sprayed with acid or bubonic plague or anthrax.
I'm the one saying that.
Why wasn't anybody else saying that?
Why didn't Ilhan Omar have that instinct?
She clearly loves herself a lot.
But she didn't have that instinct.
Ilhan Omar loves herself a lot more than I love Ilhan Omar.
Yet I'm sitting there saying this just makes a ton of sense.
And maybe it's because this was all a massive distraction play.
I'm so thankful for Ilhan Omar.
It might be the funniest thing I've ever witnessed in my entire life.
Absolute worst execution of anything attempted since I was born.
Not a conspiracy theorist, but the Ilhan Omar incident.
Why did he spray the torso?
Why did this teeny woman rush a much larger unknown attacker who wants to hurt her?
Why did she make eye contact with him and nod before he attacked her?
Why did she continue her speech?
Decline medical attention.
Why is a man not wearing a mask or trying to shield his identity?
Why does she barely flinch instead of withdrawing and creating distance between herself and somebody who wants to hurt her?
Marked safe today from staging an attack on myself so I can pretend to be tough and try and distract from the fraud investigation.
Here's a fraud investigation, ladies and gentlemen.
This is what we uncovered that has got now gone thermonuclear viral.
And everybody is saying that we had a hand in perhaps this attack on Ilhan Omar.
And what do I mean by that?
I would never advocate for anybody to ever attack anyone.
That's not what we do around here.
But we do do investigations, and we did find a skyrocketing net worth of Ilhan Omar tied to a fake winery.
Now, why are Muslims owning wineries?
It's not haram.
You're not allowed to drink wine.
You're not allowed to make wine.
You shouldn't be allowed to profit under wine, like in Muslim law, obviously.
So that's a little strange.
Why would Ilhan Omar be down with that?
I don't know.
But she got herself a fake winery.
We'll give you the short version here, but this is what's gone.
So thermonuclear viral, people say that what Ilhan Omar was doing here is trying to distract from not only this, but also multiple congressional and federal investigations into her skyrocketing net worth.
Here we go.
I just investigated Ilhan Omar's official financial disclosures, and what I found was so dark and criminal.
I don't know how she gets out of this without going to jail.
Have a look at this.
Here's Ilhan Omar's financial disclosure from the congressional record year 2023.
I want to bring your attention to this company right down here, Est Crew LLC.
This is a winery in Santa Rosa, California.
It's not doing that well.
The total value of the winery is listed at $15,000.
And Ilhan Omar is barely making any money off of it at all.
Hardly enough to pay a parking ticket.
Okay, that's fine.
Nothing really mysterious there.
Businesses fail all the time.
But go ahead and look at her filing for 2024 and you'll find that Est Crew Winery, the same company in the same location, is now worth $5 million.
That's incredible, up from $15,000.
And now Ilhan Omar is making enough to pay rent.
So this must be one of the most successful companies ever.
Let's go ahead and check in on this winery.
You know, maybe we could buy some wine.
I like wine.
Why not?
Let's see if we can buy some Est Crew winery.
Here's Est Crew's social media Facebook page.
You'll see here that the last post, oh no, was in 2023.
Wasn't this the year that they were supposed to, you know, go really big and make Ilhan Omar millions of dollars?
Same thing on their Instagram, and they don't have an ex.
So let's go ahead and check their official website.
What is Est Crew?
We are winemakers and memory curators, okay?
West Crew.
Est Crew Winery has a bunch of brands that's led by these people, creators of eye-catching labels.
So I'm sure I can go and get some of their wine, right?
Well, they don't have any activities here.
So maybe I could just go to their location and buy some of their wines or maybe give them a call.
Let's try and go to their location here.
This is the Google Street View of Est Crew Winery.
And what you'll find here is an empty parking lot.
Doesn't actually look like an operational business.
It certainly isn't the same name.
So, okay, let's go ahead and give them a call.
See if maybe they pick up.
Let's go ahead and call the number on the webpage.
Because I see like stuff about events, but like, what is this exactly?
Aren't you supposed to sell wine at your wine company?
Where are your wines?
Oh, there are no wines.
You want to know why?
Because this is a fake company.
Rip Ilhan Omer's husband accused of swindling investors in their California winery.
They stole millions from cannabis growers.
You can see here, here's a lawsuit right here saying that Tim Minette, who's Ilhan Omar's third husband, no relation, swindled his investors and defrauded them.
How did Minette get this relationship?
Well, the current Attorney General of Minnesota, Keith Ellison, used to work for him.
Isn't that curious?
Keith Ellison, the same guy who refuses to look into any of the Somali fraud.
So this company was sued for being a fraudulent company.
And the New York Post says the exact same thing as the House is now probing the mystery of Ilhan Omar's skyrocketing wealth.
They said that Ilhan Omar went from being one of the most, one of the poorest members of Congress and worth negative $65,000 to being one of the richest, worth $30 million.
Here's a rare photo of one of their wines that they allegedly made, The Devil's Lie.
But the entire company is actually a lie.
It's not a lie to Ilhan Omar, though, because she's able to list an enormous amount of her income and an enormous amount of her net worth to this fake winery.
This winery is not worth $5 million.
The winery doesn't even exist.
It's fake.
It's fraudulent.
They need to investigate this right now.
This is a lie.
And maybe, just maybe, it's the devil's lie.
Come on.
That's fun.
That's been seen by tens of millions of people.
And we, well, we're being credited in some part with causing quite a bit of stress in the Ilhan Omar camp, something that we're quite proud of.
There are legal ways to do this.
Again, Ilhan Omar is under multiple congressional investigations.
President Trump said she's under federal investigation yesterday.
Something that you don't need to investigate because you know that gold is a great investment.
If you invest in physical gold and silver, then it is going to carry you in through the golden era.
We've been telling you this for, well, now more than a year, for years actually, on this program.
And, well, what happened to gold prices exactly?
What happened to gold prices?
I mean, look at this image up on Klein's screen right now.
This is a this is a solid gold, solid gold image right there.
I don't know.
Are the Oscars actually gold?
Are these called the Juicies?
The Juicies?
The Juicies?
The Juicy Smellier?
Ladies and gentlemen, invest in gold.
It's rocketing to new highs.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have texted our friend, Senator Tommy Tuberville, and I hear that he is locked and loaded and ready to go.
let's go to the senator senator welcome back to the program uh Yeah, look at this.
Well, yeah, I mean, I think that really is ultimately the question here.
And I can think of 30 million reasons why Ilhan Omar would want a distraction right now, Senator, because there are multiple investigations into her skyrocketing wealth.
Now, you certainly didn't cut your teeth or start your life in politics.
You're rather new to this game.
Do you have any explanation as to how Ilhan Omar could become so fabulously rich, especially given her penchant for starting fake wineries?
The people of Alabama, they want their money back that was stolen up there.
How in the world did they get that much money to begin with for all these so-called welfare systems that they're stealing from?
It's just absolutely amazing to me, but it's not just Ilian Omar now.
It's the rest of the state officials and the county officials, the city officials.
That's what all this protest is about, obviously.
They don't care anything about illegal immigrants.
They could care less.
They want to protect the sovereignty of what they're doing to be able to continue to steal and elect people that are absolutely ill-prepared to do anything.
So it's just, that's our country.
We're living in a country now, Benny, that's out of control.
Thank God for President Trump taking all of them on at one time.
And it's just amazing what he's done in the first year.
I'd love to see her tax forms, how much taxes she's paying on all this.
I put my money in a trust and I did make a little money coaching.
People know coaches make pretty good money nowadays.
Not a whole lot, but what I was able to save up over the years, I put it in a trust and I have professionals invest in that money.
I have nothing to do with it.
And that's what everybody up here should do at the end of the day, because everybody gets accused of insider trading.
I'm on the Ag Committee.
I'm on the Veterans Committee, Armed Services.
I deal with people all the time.
But I can see how some people could twist it and try to make money out of this.
But again, at the end of the day, if you just look what is going on in Minneapolis, there's a lot of crooks up there, and it's just not her.
And it's just not in Minneapolis.
Look at California.
We're going at the end of the day, end of the day, Benny, you're going to find California is the most corrupt place in the world, not just in the country, in the world.
When I first got here, we had a lady that was nominated for a position here.
She was over during COVID, the workman's conversation or workman's insurance.
And she was defrauded.
And she even told me this, defrauded $30 billion during COVID because of cartels.
Have we seen any investigation of that?
She admitted it.
And by the way, the Democrats voted and nominated her and confirmed her in her position on President Biden's cabinet.
That's the type of people we were dealing with when I first got here.
So, yeah, I mean, we have an investigation that's, we're just Right at the finish line, the one-yard line, we're going to be dropping this California investigation.
The fraud is just wild there.
We uncovered so much of it, and it has such a large and profound effect on the entire rest of the country.
It's very easy to sort of like balkanize this and say it's just a California liberal problem.
They can light their own money on fire in their own burn barrel, but it's not like that.
They're lighting our money on fire, and every American should care about this.
It'd be nice to see Congress do something about it.
What do you recommend gets done?
I mean, I think that the SAVE Act is a good starting point.
No, we can't get that passed because you even have some Republicans that won't vote for it.
We have to get this done.
We will not win any more elections in terms of majorities if we don't pass the SAVE Act because they bring in all these illegals and they're going to try to get as many of them to vote as they can.
Then they have all these voting machines that are all crooked out of Venezuela, by the way.
They have a system that they can win elections.
We probably have a dozen or so people up here in the House and the Senate that were elected illegally.
They shouldn't be here because things were crooked in the elections.
Just look at Nevada and Arizona and all these places that, you know, it's been proven, but nobody does anything about it.
But I'll go back to the money that is being stolen.
If you go back to the first six months I was here back in 2000, the Democrats had the majority, House, Senate, and the White House.
And they did this first, what, CARES Act.
You know, we need money for COVID, $2 trillion.
Well, what did they do with that money?
They sent it to all the blue states to pay off their debts because they had stolen so much money they could not function.
And we're talking about 30, 40 billion for California, 30, 40 billion for New York.
Same thing for Chicago, the cities.
I mean, it is a disaster.
Folks, you are being stolen blind.
Open your eyes.
Don't listen to these people that are wanting to bring this country to a communist country because that's where we're headed.
If we don't get to the bottom of this nonsense of being able to steal something and nothing happened to them.
You know, you brought up Venezuela and you brought up the election theft.
That's my love language, Senator.
It's a bit of a passion project for us here.
And we think that the Maduro blackbagging into the back of a chopper in the middle of the night, that that had something to do with potentially uncovering the election fraud.
And President Trump's been posting a lot about Venezuelan election theft technology after blackbagging Nicolas Maduro.
Do you think that he's going to sing like a canary?
Do you think that he's the man who knows where all the bodies are buried when it comes to this topic?
It started under Hugo Chavez, the president before that, because he got recalled in an election and he came up with this system of machines that he was able to put out within his country and got himself elected.
And then when that happened, he said, heck, we'll just do this internationally.
So they started selling them all over the world.
And that's how we ended up with them here.
And now they're all controlled by a tech group in Venezuela.
But I would hope that he would be singing, as you said, like a canary and telling people what's really going on.
I would think that this is a lot of why President Trump went in there because he knows the world cannot survive with crooks running the voting systems, not just in our country, but all over the world.
And we cannot allow these machines to continue on.
Most of the research will be done in Huntsville, but we make rockets.
We make all kinds of systems.
And we're proud of what happens all over the state.
You know, one big, beautiful bill we also put in of shipbuilding.
I mean, we got to get back to building ships.
We are so far behind because of that 20-year war we spent over in the Middle East that we haven't not, we're behind Russia, we're behind China.
And so we've got a lot of money in the one big, beautiful bill that's going west of Huntsville on one of the rivers there to build ships and submarines.
And it goes to show you that money was directed just for that reason, just to get back into the shipbuilding business.
Roger Wicker in Mississippi, they build ships there.
We have shipbuilding all over the world, but we haven't put any money in it.
We haven't kept it going like we should have.
So we've got a lot of work to do.
I'm proud of what we do in Huntsville in terms of the military.
I think Alabama is one of those states that's sort of right on the border.
A lot of people are moving in.
A lot of people, I mean, you're looking at the congressional maps for the 2030 census, and the South is gaining a ton of seats.
Every blue state seems to be losing Illinois, New York, California.
How much of the criminal alien, illegal immigrant play is in order to try and stave off, here's the map right here, what would be a massive shift, an almost unwinnable map for Democrats after the 2030 census.
Yeah, I'll tell you, the big news that people, we kind of jumped over because all this other stuff going on, Benny, was the federal judge in Texas and the map can stay as Texas wants it.
And it's going to have a lot more Republican congressmen in Texas.
And that will just go over to our states.
I think we're probably getting ready to redistrict in Alabama.
And we should, because it was changed under the Democrats a few years ago.
It was a disaster.
You know, it was really unfair.
And we want to make sure it's fair, but we don't want to do it to the point all over the country where we get pointed fingers at.
Because again, this is about our country.
We're all in this together.
And, you know, you saw Florida, you saw Texas.
They're going to pick up seats.
California is trying to change theirs or run out any Republicans in their state, New York.
I mean, just look at the Northeast.
There is almost zero people north of Pennsylvania that are Republican.
And they have a lot of Republicans in those states.
So it's not fair.
But at the end of the day, we're going to have to do something because if we don't get to keep the House next year, I won't be here.
I'll be hopefully as governor of Alabama.
But they will be impeaching President Trump about every week up here, and they won't get anything done.
And that's what they're looking for.
They're looking for an opportunity to slow it down, get him out of office, and for them to take over the power back in, what, 2028.
Well, this person sat on the front seat on the front row, right in front of Omar, and then took off running to the right.
I mean, if you're going to have somebody that's going to go after somebody, they're not going to run away from them.
You know, and that you could tell that was pretty much all stage.
Now, again, I'm just saying that because you look at what the Democrats have done and how they act and the things that they say that they're supposedly for our country.
And then, of course, she is under big time investigation.
She's trying to get the heat off of her.
I would hope nobody, especially a Republican, would do something like this or somebody that's conservative, a good American.
That's not how you do things.
But it's all awful fishy.
And President Trump is exactly right.
She's been a phony on everything she's done.
So I wouldn't doubt that this would just match up with all that.
You can still have members of Congress like that that are so sound and are so well spoken and that just speak the truth and aren't scared of the truth and don't use weasel words and political words.
Scrape.
That's what freedom of speech was built for.
Patriot Mobile keeps freedom of speech, keeps us speaking freely, I think would be the right way to say it.
Every single day, Americans make a choice in shaping our country's future, right down to which cell phone provider they use.
But most people don't realize that Patriot Mobile isn't just a wireless provider.
They're a Christian conservative organization that sells top-tier cell phone service.
Get yourself some today.
That premium service backs up our show everywhere we go.
We'll be traveling tomorrow, God willing.
We'll see.
There's a lot going on in the world right now.
We'll be traveling tomorrow.
I'm going to go to hang out with Melania Trump.
More on that, ladies and gentlemen, in just a moment.
Go to patriotmobile.com/slash Benny.
Call 972 Patriot and use the promo code Benny for free month of service.
When you see our photo with Melania, I don't know if we're going to get a photo with Melania tomorrow.
It'll be from our Patriot mobile device that we take this photo.
PatriotMobile.com slash Benny.
Call 972 Patriot and make the switch today.
Okay.
Well, it looks like we're waiting on potentially Corey Lewandowski, but also he might not be able to make it today.
We'll see, ladies and gentlemen, we'll see.
Producers are working with them right now.
Obviously, being at DHS is a pretty, you know, DHS is a pretty busy job, pretty busy these days.
So let's go ahead and check in on one other interesting fake news hoax.
And I want to like begin by saying just like what we said with Ilhan Omar, don't attack people.
I don't want any American to die.
Alex Predty is somebody whose death is a tragedy because I don't want Americans to die.
This dude died when he brought a loaded firearm, Sig Sauer P320, to a physical altercation with federal forces.
Now, what you heard in the media was that Alex Predi was simply a legal observer, a bystander who just, you know, got maybe caught up in the melee.
An innocent man in the wrong spot.
But that's turned out to not be true.
And just like the photo they keep using of him is also fake.
And I don't know why they're doing this because I wouldn't do this.
You know, I lost somebody that I cared about a lot this year.
Charlie Kirk was killed and he was killed and it was on video.
And it's also, you know, they're not the same.
It's not, you know, apples and oranges.
And I won't be lectured to by the people who celebrated Charlie Kirk's murder over this.
I'm exhausted by it, by the way.
But I will say that we weren't photoshopping Charlie.
Like, I don't get like, I don't get this.
Like, what brings you to take the man's actual photo, which is here on the left, that's your screen, and then AI Photoshop it into like a fake human being.
The photo on the right is a fake.
So you see the original and the edit.
The media is using the edited photo.
Why are they lying to you?
If they don't even feel like they can use the real photo of the man, what else are they lying about?
Well, it turns out that they are lying about some other things.
Alex Predty broke ribs in fighting with federal forces a week before.
Turns out that Alex Predty was part of a signal chat group.
It's according to multiple reports on X that was targeting federal officials.
What does this show?
It just shows the behavior.
I'm not saying that the man deserved to die, although you did engage in behavior that almost but surely guarantees a bad outcome.
Much like you shouldn't spray members of Congress with unidentifiable liquid, as curious as all of that is, you also shouldn't bring loaded firearms to fighting federal agents.
You can be all but assured that something terrible is going to happen.
And that not just federal agents, cops or anyone.
Do you know people who can steal carry?
I sure as hell do because I look in the mirror every single day.
Let me tell you what happens when I'm going to steal.
I avoid fights.
I avoid confrontations.
Most people who are acting in a logical, insane way, especially when they got one in the chamber, although you shouldn't travel like that, most people step away as far away as they possibly can from getting pulled into some type of horrible confrontation where your firearm could get dislodged, where you could have a bad shoot, where somebody could misinterpret.
You know, you want to be using lethality and lethal weapons extremely carefully and in a locked down way.
Obviously, you're talking about life and death.
Take this stuff seriously.
But Alex Predi didn't.
And he also, after fighting with the cop, this is according to CNN, they broke the story.
After fighting with cops and breaking a rib, Alex Predty returned a week later to fight with cops again.
And he was armed this time.
I don't know if he was armed last time.
This is bad behavior.
It certainly isn't the behavior of an innocent bystander.
This is the behavior of somebody who's quite militant, like a soldier, for instance.
This is what CNN says.
Here we go, ladies and gentlemen.
Alex Predi broke ribs fighting federal agents right before he brought a firearm to go fight with federal agents.
Dana, we're learning more details along with my colleague Jeff Winter about what exactly transpired a week before Alex Predi was shot in Minneapolis and died this past weekend.
Now, in this earlier incident, he stopped his car after observing ICE agents chasing what he described as a family on foot and began shouting and blowing his whistle.
Predty later told one of these sources that five agents tackled him and one leaned on his pat on his back, appearing to leave him with a broken rib.
According to this source, and I'm quoting here, that sort said, quote, that day he thought he was going to die.
Now, Predty was later given medication that is consistent with treating a broken rib, according to records reviewed by CNN.
Sources also say that he was known to federal law enforcement, though it's unclear whether it was this incident or another with federal agents that they knew him, they knew of him.
It's also unclear whether the officers who tackled him on Saturday knew who he was.
What we do know, however, is that federal immigration officers have been collecting personal information of protesters and agitators.
And that's why we say, like, don't spray members of Congress with weird liquid or whatever the hell that was with Ilhan Omar.
And don't bring firearms and go fight a bunch of cops.
That's like a guaranteed way to get yourself killed or to have a terrible outcome.
Anyway, I just like want to paint a more full picture here of what's actually happening.
That's what the show is all about.
Ladies and gentlemen, we were expecting a scorched earth, burn your face off take from Corey Lewandowski today, but his travel arrangement got completely foobar because that's what's happening to planes all across the country.
And so airports are shutting down.
He has a big old storm, and it is what it is.
So, unfortunately, Corey Lewandowski will not be able to join us today, but we can still make sure that you have a face scorcher with Bond Charge.
It is a red light mask, though, for your face, or a sauna blanket.
It's good for you, ladies and gentlemen.
You could face mask or sauna blanket.
I like the sauna blanket myself personally because I live inside of this little black box.
And especially in these months, I don't get any sunlight.
We get no daylight.
Klein and I are like working in the mines all day.
Vampires, man.
And so you leave, we leave here, right?
I try and leave 5 or 5:30 at the latest in order to get home for dinner with my family.
And it's dark outside already.
You get no sunlight, right?
So the red sauna blanket is great.
It's good for you.
It's got amazing effects.
I feel euphoric after using it.
It's good for your skin.
It's good for your brain.

Okay, that'll be the show for the day.
It's been an exciting one.
I mean, I guess we could do an in the chat.
I mean, why not, right?
Let's just do a couple of chats, okay?
And then we have our verse of the day.
But ladies and gentlemen, since we don't have Corey, let's jump in the chat.
We want to be the number one.
We want to have the channel that is the most centered on the audience in the whole wide internet.
So here we go.
Okay, here we go.
We are jumping in.
If y'all think Benny is late, try waiting 20 minutes every day for popcorn to plan it during the death herd trial.
Okay, well, yes.
We will not be 20 minutes late.
I mean, listen, if we're going to be that late, we'll like send out a notice or something.
This is something that I've been brailling at with Klein.
It's like, we need to be more on time for the show.
And I apologize.
Sometimes we come in here.
Let me tell you what it always is.
It's not us like Billy Dallying, you know, or like drawing or whatever.
It's often there's breaking news and we're like reformatting a few things.
I want to grab a couple tweets.
I want to grab this or that.
It's often something like that.
It's just like typical for the show because we do a breaking news show and we want to be fast and first.
So that is what it is.
So we're often just like grabbing elements.
Sometimes, and this leads to major consternation and rage with some people at the company, we are changing the lead of the show up until like the minute we go live.
And so that is sometimes what causes us to be a few minutes late, but we will endeavor in this new year.
It's still January.
We'll endeavor in this new year to be right on time.
On occasion, I have little arguments, but generally, I would say really good.
And who's doing, and start off with a man who's doing a phenomenal job, Treasury Secretary Scott Besson.
Scott, thank you very much, Scott.
And he loved this right from the beginning, Scott, right?
He saw this and he said, wow, what a great idea that is.
This is, you know, hundreds of thousands of dollars by the time they reach 18, but we can go 21.
They can keep it in longer.
But he saw this right from the beginning.
He said, wow, this is great.
And we have some other ideas that will be great, but this was one that just hit everybody.
This was an easy one to think about.
And again, that bill allowed us to do this.
Otherwise, can you imagine trying to get this approved by Democrats and Republicans?
Let's get together.
We got it done.
Also, a man who's made your life much easier because those of you that are building plants and equipment so you can give your money, ultimately, you're giving your money away anyway, no matter how much you make.
But he's made it a lot easier.
You know, approvals for big plants used to take 20 years, 25 years, and then you'd get rejected, actually.
You'd go 20 years environmentally and they'd reject you.
You finally, if I think of it, a guy starts young, he starts an approval process.
By the time he's middle-aged, they take a vote and he loses.
It's not worth it.
But we have a man that's getting these things done in a matter of weeks.
And the biggest plants in the world are being built right now, and he's getting them done fast.
He's getting electric plants built so that we can buy them.
They're paying for them.
They want to pay for them.
So they can open up their AI plants and they can open up their automobile plants and lesser so the automobiles, believe it or not, take much less electricity.
You're gonna have to tell me why you need so much electricity to create information.
I said, what's your primary product?
Information.
Oh, I say, information.
It better be damn good information for the kind of money.
But Lee Zeldon is a star, and he has been incredible.
Thank you, Lee.
And, you know, I have to say this, Scott and I were talking about it.
So Lee went out to California after the fire, which should have never happened if they would have let the water flow from the Pacific Northwest, which everybody's been telling them.
It clearly now I just opened it up.
We literally sent in the military to open it up.
But if they would have let, you wouldn't have had the fires because you would have had a little thing called old-fashioned way, water in the fire hydrants, as opposed to empty fire hydrants.
You would have had water and most of the houses had the sprinklers on top.
There was no water in their sprinkler in their living room.
All those fires wouldn't have started.
But they did start.
And I will say that Lee, the most difficult permit was Lee.
I went there a couple of days after the fire, met so many people on the streets.
In many cases, fairly wealthy people, some very rich people.
Some of the best houses in California burned down.
And I said to them, so what do you want to do?
They said, sir, we want to start immediately immediately.
Well, we'll get your permits.
Now, the hardest permit, Lee, was the federal permit.
Is that right?
He got everything done in 20 days, right?
The whole thing.
Is that a correct statement or less?
20 days.
So he got everything done 100% ready to go.
And I went for a meeting, and this mayor, who's a grossly incompetent person, she said, we're going to try and have the permits done within two years.
Remember that?
I got into an argument.
I said, you mean within two days, right?
She said, no.
And I'm meeting all these people as I'm walking along the streets with the fire departments and the policemen, and they're all devastated.
You know, they're still smoldering.
But they weren't even allowed to go in their property.
The Environmental Protection Agency, local, said, don't go on your property, okay?
We said, okay, don't worry about it.
Any problem is gone.
Any problem is burned.
Any germs are burned.
They're burned.
They were burned.
Nobody's ever seen anything like it, but all so unnecessary that it happened.
But we got it all done in 20 days, the whole place.
And yet now, still, more than a year later, they don't have permits.
Almost nobody is building.
So I haven't told this to Lee Zeldon yet, but I'm going to put you in charge of getting permits.
I think we're going to override the local authorities because they're never going to have it.
And when I was told that there's a provision where you can override the local authority to get things done, case of, because it's really, to me, it's a national emergency.
What they've done to these people is horrible.
It's just horrible.
And they'll still vote Democrat.
Can you believe it?
After all, it's just, they get used to it.
Although I must say we converted many.
We'll probably convert a lot more.
But I just want them to get into their houses.
And I don't want a big section of the area built into low-income housing.
They want to put low-income housing right smack in the middle of it.
And that's not the American dream.
You know, you didn't do that.
And low-income housing is great.
I built a lot of low-income housing, but you don't put it there.
This is one of the richest neighborhoods in the world.
And we're going to let those people, and I recommend it strongly that everybody gets the approval, immediate approval to build a house, and you give them a 10% bonus so they can build a house 10% larger than they had before if they want for all the suffering they've been caused so they can build a little bit bigger house.
Between the mayor and the governor, they're incompetent.
They'll never get approved.
They'll never get approved.
So do whatever you can, Lee.
There's a provision that you're allowed to do it.
And we will, I'll sign it in two seconds, frankly.
They'll never, ever, it'll never happen.
I also want to introduce a man, Frank Pasigno.
Now, if you met Frank and if you knew Frank, he's quiet, but he's actually a stone-cold killer.
He was one of the biggest people in business.
He would have been sitting with you.
In fact, now he's got a better seat because he's working for the government.
He's the head of a lot of things.
But the job he's done in this country is great.
And he's working on Social Security and a thing called the IRS.
He's working with Scott on both of them, really, but the IRS in particular.
And he is a fantastic man.
Where are you, Frank?
Took the biggest pay cut in history.
He went from being paid $35 million a year to being paid about $35 a year.
I think you may have taken the biggest pay cut in history.
He'd be close.
He'd be one of the top five because a few people have done that.
A few billionaires have sort of left.
But Frank has gone from one of the most successful people.
He worked with Jamie Diamond.
I don't think Jamie likes me too much nowadays, but that's okay.
I never minded that.
But Frank, you are fantastic and you're doing a great job.
We appreciate it.
Thank you.
And thank you to the family.
The director of National Economic Council, a man who's in the news a lot.
You know, my only problem is I don't want to lose him.
I will tell you that he's working from a big deficit because I don't want to lose him.
He's so good.
Kevin has it.
Thank you, Kevin.
Thank you, Kevin.
A friend of mine, a senator who has been unbelievable.
She's a tremendous woman, a tremendous, married to a great football player.
Her husband is a massive man.
This guy, he played in the NFL, I guess, for 11 years.
He was top of the line player.
I met him.
I said, that's not a normal situation.
Look at this guy.
This guy was seriously powerful, big, and he's as nice as he is big.
And she is one of our best senators, Senator Katie Britt.
Thank you, Darling.
From Alabama, I love Alabama.
We love Alabama.
Marsha Blackburn is an incredible person.
Unfortunately, she's running for governor.
She's running for governor of Tennessee.
I'd love her not to.
I begged her.
I said, Marcia, we don't want to lose you in the Senate.
But I have to say they're lucky.
They're lucky to get you because you are a talent and a great person.
And you've been with me all the way, and I appreciate it.
And you're a very special person.
Marcia, stand up, please.
And a senator who's a friend of mine, you wouldn't believe that because we went through a rough campaign together.
It was nasty.
We got along so well.
And everybody, we actually did joint rallies.
Can you believe it?
He wanted to get somebody action, so he's smart.
He said, would you do a rally with me?
But we did joint rallies.
And the press used to say, will you ever?
you know, start fighting.
I said, don't worry, it'll come.
He said the same thing.
Don't worry, it'll come.
He's a very tough guy, very brilliant guy.
In fact, when I said, you know, because I had never gone into a debate before officially, my whole life was a debate, but I'd never debated before officially.
And I said, let me find out about my competition.
Who are these people?
Because many of them, you know, they were senators and mostly senators and governors.
And I said, well, why don't we start with this guy named Ted Cruz?
Let me, you know, give me, well, he was the best student at Harvard, number one in his class.
He was the best student at Princeton or something.
And he was the national debate champion for three years.
And I said, well, I don't like that.
I didn't know that.
I don't like that.
And he was a very good debater.
I will tell you that.
He's a smart guy.
But I'll never forget, because he was the first one I looked at.
You know, I just joined the ranks of politics.
And the first famous, it was the Rosie O'Donnell.
Remember that?
Only Rosie O'Donnell?
Ireland, you can keep her.
Ireland is not a tremendous.
The head of Ireland said, are all you people this way?
We don't want that.
But Ted Cruz has one thing that I love.
If I ever have problems, because it's hard to get people to prove, he's a brilliant legal mind.
He's a brilliant man.
If I nominate him for the United States Supreme Court, I will get 100% of the vote.
The Democrats will vote for him because they want to get him the hell out.
And the Republicans will vote for him because they want to get him the hell out too.
Where's Ted?
Where are you, Ted?
And with all of that being said, he's a great guy, too.
He's a great guy.
We've become friends and he's a very effective person too.
Thank you, Ted, very much.
The man knows more about tax than anybody that I know.
Jason Smith, congressman, wonderful person.
Thanks, Jace.
Thank you, Jason.
Great job.
Idaho Governor Brad Little, terrific guy.
Thank you, Brad.
Georgia Lieutenant Governor Bert Jones, who hopefully will be the governor of Georgia very shortly.
They have a big race.
He's leading by a lot in the polls.
He was outstanding as a lieutenant governor.
He's great everywhere.
And I've endorsed him fully, so I don't want to, you know, do anything that you don't know about.
I have given him my complete and total endorsement.
Bert Jones, where are you, Bert?
Thank you, Bert.
Great guy.
Chief Design Officer of the United States, Joe Gebia.
I know I wish he wanted to buy TikTok so much, and I would have done it, but his price was slightly lower.
Slightly.
He's fantastic.
What a good, you're an entertainer businessman.
You had the whole quality.
So I appreciate it.
I know what you do.
Having done the apprentice, I see you on television.
You have what it takes, right?
So I appreciate it.
And thanks for all the nice things you do.
And Cheryl Hines, where's Cheryl?
Wow.
Married to a very, very powerful, important man.
And I said, I'll tell you, Bobby, she's strong.
I watched her in an interview.
I said, Bobby, you keep him in line, don't you?
She said, yes, I do.
She's got no choice.
He's doing a great job, and so are you.
Yeah, he's doing a great job.
He's doing a very different kind of a job, too, and he's doing things that people have wanted to do for a long time.
And they didn't have the courage.
So say hello to Bobby, okay?
We're also pleased.
My daughter, she went crazy when she heard that this was, I want to go.
You know, she happens to be in the wrong state right now for that, but when she heard that there's a certain person that's here who's the greatest and most successful female rapper in history, Nikki Minaj.
Come on.
And, you know?
And Nikki makes a lot of cash.
Not as much as Michael Dell.
Not quite.
Not as much.
But that's okay.
But Nikki makes a lot of money and she's generously stepping up.
She's investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in Trump accounts to support the children and really the children of her incredible fans.
That's great.
Focus on that.
Why should you give to somebody else's fans?
Give to your fans.
I like that.
But, and I just think she's great.
You know, I've been hearing so much over the years because I didn't know Nikki.
And I've been hearing over the years she's a big Trump supporter and a Trump fan.
And she took a little heat on occasion.
Her community isn't necessarily, I tell you, we did pretty damn well with that, with your community, as we say.
But Nikki has been an unbelievable supporter.
She gets more, she gets almost as much as Mr. Wonderful over here.
He's been another one.
It's been so good.
But I'd like to ask you to come up, Nikki.
Come on up.
Come on.
She's been such a great supporter and a great supporter of Trump accounts.
And I said, I'm going to let my nails grow because I love those nails.
When Trump accounts officially launch on July 4th of this year, every parent will be able to activate their accounts and access the funds at the trumpaccounts.gov.
So it's all set up, all ready to go.
It's beautiful.
The site is beautiful.
On that glorious day, we also expect to have commitments from generous private individuals in all 50 states, and they'll be making additional contributions for children in their own states.
And already, legendary investor Ray Dalio has pledged to adopt the entire state of Connecticut.
That's pretty good, Michael.
And thank you very much, Ray.
Great legend.
And today, one of the original advocates of this program has agreed to adopt his home state of Indiana, Brad Gerstner.
Brad's here, someplace.
Where's Brad?
Come on.
I think, Michael and Brad, would you come up here, please?
Come up here.
I mean, this isn't exactly Mr. Wonderful and Nikki, but I think they might be worth more money than Mr. Wonderful.
These guys are worth a lot of money.
But Brad is donating, listen to this, $250 to Trump accounts for all children under five in Indiana.
So every children, all the children under five, 250.
And he'll be donating tens of millions of dollars more and matching contributions to millions of children all across the country.
He's going to make a massive donation already.
We know what it is.
Brad is not only one of the most successful business people, he's the founder of the Invest America Foundation, and he's been working on this idea for years.
And he was the one who went over to see Michael.
Michael loved it.
And those two were a hell of a team, along with Mrs. Dell, who's been so great, Susan.
I also delighted to report that dozens of major employers have signed up to add the Trump account contributions to the employee benefit packages, including Uber, Schwab, Charter Communications, and many, many others.
And just today it was announced that Intel, NVIDIA Broadcom, IBM, Stake and Shake, Coinbase, Continental Resources, and Comcast have all signed up for really big contributions.
So I want to thank them.
I want to have you two guys come on up.
Would you say a couple of words?
Brad and Michael, would you say a couple of words?
That's a fantastic scene.
Only Indiana.
You can't do bigger.
We love Indiana, but you know, how about Indiana, Iowa?
Well, four years ago, we set off on a journey to reconnect every child in America with the American dream.
This president ran on a mainstreet agenda that too many people had been left out and left behind.
And his articulation of no tax on tips doesn't help rich folks.
That helps those left out and left behind.
No tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime.
And when Ted Cruz authored the Invest America Act in the Senate, and Michael Dell partnered with me to bring the private sector to bear on this, we had the opportunity that this president was willing to sign.
He immediately understood the impact that this wasn't about the wealthy folks in America.
This was about the 50 million American families who will be lifted up and reconnected to the American dream because this is now the law of the land for every more forevermore.
Every child in America, from rural Missouri to rural Indiana, from Trenton to Compton, is going to start off life with an investment account at birth, seated with $1,000 where they privately own NVIDIA and Microsoft, all the greatest companies in this country, right?
Not dependent on government, independent from government, not more socialism.
The answer to more socialism is more capitalism.
This makes every child in America a capitalist from birth, and it would not have happened without the leadership of our Treasury Secretary, Scott Besant, without the leadership of the Speaker and Ted Cruz in the Senate.
But most importantly, and every business leader in America will tell you this: for too long, they had no access in Washington to the White House.
People didn't want to hear their ideas.
This president is voracious in his desire to hear from America's leaders about how to make America better.
This is citizen democracy at its best.
An idea that started around a kitchen table in Silicon Valley makes its way to this day.
I'm humbled and honored to be here, and I'm grateful for your leadership.
And it creates a platform for communities, for families, for corporations, for philanthropists to add to these accounts.
And in not too many years, essentially every child in America will have savings invested in the greatest companies in this country.
And that will change the face of this country over the next 10, 20, 30 years.
And we couldn't be more excited about this and the opportunity to make a difference.
You know, the best investment a country can make is in its people, especially in its children.
And this creates an incredible platform for that to occur at enormous scale.
And we're excited to see it all come together.
Thank you all so much.
Those are two fantastic people.
I can tell you that.
I want to give a very special thanks to some of the CEOs here this morning.
Vlad Tedev of Robinhood, what a job he's done.
Where's Vlad?
What a job you've done.
Young guy.
Nice young guy, too.
Arjun Seti of Kraken.
Arjun, thank you very much, wherever you are.
Thank you.
Anthony Noto of SoFi Technologies.
SoFi.
Thank you very much, Anthony.
These are the ones you read about.
And Bill Ackman is here, Pershing Square, and Hawk Tan of Broadcom and so many others that if I name them, we'll be up here all day.
But I just want to say that what a job you've all done.
Incredible job.
Everybody, just about everybody in this room.
Not everybody.
I'm not in love with everybody.
A couple of them I don't like very much.
But if they're here, I'm starting to like them a lot better because they're here for a very good reason.
I'm officially calling on all employers all across America to follow the lead of many of these amazing companies and make matching Trump account contributions to benefit for the American worker, and they're going to benefit the American worker so much.
This morning, I'm also pleased to announce that Visa is creating a brand new platform which will allow credit card holders to deposit their cashback rewards directly into Trump accounts.
That's a big deal.
Visa, thank you.
Where's Visa?
Thank you very much, Visa.
These initiatives could not come at a better moment because there's never been a better time to invest in the United States of America than right now.
Who knew it would have happened this fast?
I inherited a mess.
We were a country that was laughed at a year and a half ago.
We were laughed at.
Now we're the hottest country anywhere in the world.
Nobody even close.
So, you know, who knew this was going to take place this quickly?
Right, Michael?
I didn't think it was going to go that fast.
I knew we were going to do it, but I thought it would take a couple of years at least.
Just a couple of days longer than the first year.
So it's really amazing.
And just this morning, as I'm running out, I see the SP 500 hit 7,000 for the first time ever, ever.
So I say America is back.
America is back.
Since the election, the stock market has set 52 all-time record highs, adding $9 trillion in value.
And $18 trillion of investment is pouring into the country.
It's going to be higher than that.
Just over one year ago, we were a country that lost its way.
We were mocked and scorned.
And every American child will now be and have access to something that is really incredible.
And they can watch directly the economic boom that's taken place.
This is a boom that's taken place, the likes of which we've really never seen.
I don't think people get it yet.
Not a lot of people.
They don't get it.
They don't see the thousands of businesses being built, the hundreds and hundreds of massive factories that are going up all over.
But they're going to start to see it.
They're starting to see it.
I mean, if they're modestly intelligent, if they're very intelligent, they saw it about a year ago.
With us today is Craig Smith, a fourth generation family farmer and volunteer firefighter from Culpeper, Virginia, along with his wonderful wife, Heather.
Craig and Heather of an 18-month-old son and a one-month-old that they also welcomed just recently, twin boys.
And they can't wait to activate Trump accounts for all three of their children this July 4th.
Craig and Heather.
Do you want to come up here, Craig and Heather?
Where are you, Craig and Heather?
Come on up.
Craig and Heather, come on up.
Come on up.
It meant so much to them.
You know, people write letters.
Every once in a while, you got a letter.
It just hits you.
Craig and Heather, come on up.
Thank you.
That's great.
Wow, look at this family, huh?
They're a rich family now.
The kids are richer than the parents.
This is the way we want it.
unidentified
Thank you very much.
We just want to thank President Trump for all of his hard work and dedication to American families and farm families like ours.
Farming is not always easy, and sometimes margins are tight.
So, investments like this into our children really help us to buy diapers and formula and not have to worry about making financial decisions for them this early on.
Also, joining us today is the Gowens family from Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Charlie works in manufacturing and he's here with his wife, Savannah, his high school sweetheart.
In 2022, Charlie and Savannah opened their home to foster care, expecting, really expecting to take in one child, but soon they were taking in a family of three siblings and formally adopting them.
A short time later, Charlie and Savannah also welcomed a biological daughter.
Trump accounts will give each of these children a much better start in life.
And Charlie and Savannah, where are you?
Are you down there?
Do you want to come up?
Come on up here, Charlie, real fast.
We're holding up a lot of big business people.
We can't hold them up.
Michael will take back his donation.
Say what?
I want my money back.
Come on up here.
These are great families, but there's millions and millions of families that are going to be so amazed and so happy at what's taking place.
Sort of a miracle, I think.
Nice to see you.
How are you?
Look at that.
unidentified
Thank you, President Trump, for having my family and me here today.
And it was our faith that first led us to open our home to foster care.
And it was God's plan that allowed us, absolutely.
And it was God's plan that allowed us to adopt three amazing children out of foster care to welcome so many more.
And of course, this past year, welcome our youngest daughter, Florence, into the world.
It's through our experience that we've seen how opportunity or the lack thereof can really impact a child at the very beginning stages of their life before they even get a chance themselves.
And that's why my wife and I, along with some of the work that the First Lady is doing, we are working to help foster families, foster and adopted families, and personally in our state with protections and support in our home state of Arkansas.
Every child deserves hope, stability, and a strong chance at a future, a strong future.
And for young families, especially like ours, that your first priorities are, of course, your diapers and your wife's and your car seats and all that stuff.
And so starting and investing into an investment account is not necessarily on the top of the priority list.
And we're so thankful to have this.
And I think this sends a powerful message that this administration believes that financial opportunity can start early, that it is intentional, and that it can impact every single family.
And my wife and I are so excited that this administration has placed families and children like ours at the forefront of economic policy.
And we're so excited for the future of children and for this country.
But you could see a loving father there, couldn't you?
The way he did that, right?
Wasn't that a loving father?
I watched that.
He was grabbing.
That's a great family.
Thank you very much, both.
Beautiful.
So, in conclusion, the ultimate success of the Trump accounts will be measured not just in the wealth created, it will be seen in young people buying houses that they could never have even dreamed of buying.
It'll be seen in diplomas earned, companies founded, families formed, and more babies born.
It'll really be seen in something where you're given a chance.
You're given a chance at life, a very good chance.
Above all, Trump accounts will help bring the hope and prosperity to every community that every community wants to see, and it'll bring back the American dream.
The American dream is so beautiful.
I would mention it all the time when I'm running.
Whenever I run, I talk about the American dream because that's what we want to create.
Others don't talk about it, but we have the American dream back, I think, now better than maybe better than ever before.
For generations, Washington politicians have done nothing to take from the hardworking people of our country.
They take and take.
They do nothing but take.
They've made workers' lives harder, sent prices higher, pushed your dreams out of reach.
And both parties, I mean, they didn't do the job that they were supposed to do.
Some were fighting, and sometimes we fight against some of the great politicians we have here.
They fight with me, most of them, and we fight to make things better.
But we run into walls of other politicians that either don't want to do something or they almost feel like it's a destruction of our country.
But now we're doing something much better than giving the next generation a handout.
We're giving them ownership of America's future so that they can grow up, chart their own destiny, and make our nation greater and stronger and better than ever before.
So, I just want to thank all of the people that participated today, the great business leaders, the great celebrities, and all of the people that are in this room.
You've done so much.
And I just want to also give a little bit of a shout out to a lot of great politicians that are right now voting on some very important measures, plus the politicians in this room.
They have really worked hard on this.
This is something that it's amazing that it got done.
If you knew the political process, it was very complex, very hard to get done to get all of those votes together.
But we did it, and it's going to be great for America.
And Brad and Michael, thank you both very much.
Special, special people.
Thank you very much.
And God bless everybody in the room and God bless America.
I have a kid who was born in the Trump era, born on Inauguration Day.
Gets a Trump account.
Pretty cool.
Great job, Whitaker.
And a great reason to keep fighting.
So is the verse of the day.
A great reason to keep fighting from Ephesians 4:32.
Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, in God, in Christ, as Christ forgave you.
Yes.
Make sure, remember that you needed an enormous amount of forgiveness and grace in your life, and so do others.
Something that we imperfectly practice every single day, but something that you should use as a core anchor in your life, that you are undeserving of all of this, and that you got to forgive because you first were forgiven, and you got to love because you first were loved.
And you got to lock in because Christ locked in, and that's a great way to end the day.
Or at least our show.
Now back to work.
Here we go, ladies and gentlemen.
March with us on to victory.
That is Assured.
It's your boy Benny.
