Watch With Me: President Trump’s Address To Congress
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So this is not—this was not what we had planned for this evening.
Obviously, we were going live tonight because we were going to cover Trump speaking, and we'll still get there, obviously, whatever he presents in front of the Joint Congress.
But then some news broke on X that Florida—and I actually—I thought it was a joke.
I thought, honestly, I thought I was being pranked—that Florida has decided to move to criminally investigate Andrew Tate.
Andrew Tate is joining us, and I just want to, at first, give you guys the background here because it's egregious what happened here.
I don't care about your opinions about Andrew Tate.
I don't care if you think he's a misogynist, if he's a sexist, if you think he's a racist.
None of that actually matters, okay?
Because you think about what would be the circumstance if Trump traveled to New York, ends the presidency, travels to New York, his plan lands, and...
And leftists just start freaking out, freaking out.
How?
Oh, I don't want him back in this state.
I don't want him here.
This is ridiculous.
And then the governor moves to host a press conference, which Ronna Sanders did in Florida, as soon as Tristan and Andrew Tate landed, and said, I'm going to have my attorney general look into him because we don't want him here.
He's not welcome here.
This is what Ronna Sanders did.
He's not welcome here.
What do you mean he's not welcome here?
He's a U.S. citizen.
He's a U.S. passport.
He's welcome here.
OK, he hasn't been charged of any crimes overseas, irrespective of what you think about him.
Of course, he's welcome here.
And so Ronna Sante says that.
And literally a couple of days later, the attorney general announces that, yes, in fact.
And can we pull that tweet up, Skylar, if you've got it?
He tweets this tonight.
He tweets last week.
So, yes, literally at the moment that neocons started freaking out in the state of Florida.
I directed my office to work with our law enforcement partners to conduct a preliminary inquiry into Andrew and Tristan Tate.
Now you're going, is this Stalin tweeting this, Candace?
Is this in America?
Or are we in Russia right now?
What's going on?
Nope.
Let's keep reading.
This is actually America.
This happened in Florida.
He then continues his tweet with, Oh, it's only been a couple of days.
They move quickly.
I've directed the Office of Statewide Prosecution to execute search warrants and issue subpoenas in the now active criminal investigation into the Tate brothers.
Love.
Find, show me the man, and I will show you the crime, Attorney General James Uthmeyer.
And then before we bring Andrew on, I also want to run the clip of what Ron DeSantis said, okay?
Again, Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate have not been convicted of any crimes.
So I don't care about investigations that are ongoing or videos that you saw on X. They are returning home, and they are responding to an outrage mob, okay?
Ron DeSantis is being texted by a bunch of his neocon lieutenants, and this is what he had to say at his press conference.
Governor, there's some reporting out there that controversial podcaster accused human trafficker Andrew Tate may be on his way to Florida.
Is he welcome here?
What could the state do to send him back to Romania or whatever?
Well, we have no involvement in that.
I read about it through the media.
Clearly, the federal government has jurisdiction whether they want to rebuff his entry into the United States, and I have confidence that whether it's Pam Bondi or Kristi Noem, that they will be looking at that.
I do know our attorney general.
James Uthmeyer is looking at what state hopes and jurisdiction we may have to be able to deal with this.
But the reality is, no, Florida is not a place where you're welcome with that type of conduct in the air.
And I don't know how it came to this.
We were not involved.
We were not notified.
I found out through the media that this was something that was happening.
So there you have it, you guys.
He just instantly said we're going to go after him and we will make something happen, and they did it in a couple of days.
Andrew, I want to bring you in right now to respond to this.
I'm shocked.
I can't even imagine how you're feeling right now.
You probably finally thought after three years of Romania just essentially saying you're not allowed to leave your house, took them forever to even bring charges against you, that when you land on American soil, okay, great, at least I'm in a place where there will be due process and there won't be these sorts of witch hunts.
Yeah, I believed it was the land of the free and the home of the brave.
And I was extremely disappointed when I landed.
I'm not intimidated by these people because I don't even know what jurisdiction they believe they have.
I think this is the second time I've been to Florida in my life.
Before this, I was here for three days.
So I don't know what they're intending, but I am extremely disappointed.
I am genuinely disappointed that after flying to my home nation, the country I was born in, The country my father served for, the country I hold the passport of, they've decided, because of media spin and slurs, to instantly attack me.
And very correctly, as you pointed out, this is not a matter of trying to solve a crime.
They can't even identify a crime.
They're just trying to pin something on me because they don't like me.
And what happened when I landed is that as I left the airport, my electronics were seized, which I'm assuming are...
The search warrants he's talking about.
So my phones and laptops were already seized before I even saw the media.
The second I landed, state police took all of my electronics, took everything and told me there was an open investigation into me.
I guess this is the search warrants he's talking about.
So if you pull back up his tweet, it's very interesting.
He says, based on preliminary investigations.
Well, the preliminary investigations.
There we go.
Last week, I directed my office to work with our law enforcement partners to conduct a preliminary inquiry into Andrew and Tristan Tate.
That's not true, but you didn't even know I was coming to Florida.
So that is a lie, sir.
What you did is you found old YouTube videos I made, which I have debunked 1,500 times, but of course the enemy always ignores the debunk and just continues to play them on repeat over and over.
Use them as an excuse to seize all of my electronics on landing.
I'm now in Florida.
They have all of my electronics.
And I guess they're going through it trying to find a crime.
I'm very confident they won't.
But we also know how ridiculous prosecutors can be.
So here I am expecting to be welcome in my host nation.
And it turns out they're the Stasi.
This is worse than Romania.
This is communism in and of itself.
I'm truly disgusted.
And if I be honest, there's a lot of rumors flying around.
I got a phone call from somebody very important who told me that the DeSantis crew.
Are extremely worried that I was going to support Byron against his wife in the Floridian governor elections.
I'm new to this.
I don't know anything about Floridian politics.
I didn't even know DeSantis and Trump didn't get along.
I didn't know any of this.
I'm just a man after three years who flew home and everyone's telling me that you're a political pawn and you can motivate and activate the masculine youth and you're going to get them all to vote against his wife.
And that's why they're trying to take you out politically because Trump supported the guy against his wife.
This is brand new to me.
So I'm just in the middle of this being told that I'm the one who's going to be deciding the next governor of Florida with no idea what's even going on.
It's truly, truly incredible.
It is incredible.
And it's interesting that you say that because I never supported DeSantis for president.
I just saw right through him.
It was very obvious to me that he was not his own man, which is to say that he moves according to what his donors want.
And because every single person that I don't respect, meaning the neocons who have never supported Trump, got behind DeSantis and were passionate about him or fighting for him made me go, you know what, that's a man that I can't trust.
You know, I don't know who's running that campaign or who's running his ideas, but it's not Ron DeSantis.
OK, and so what I think happened was as soon as you landed, because we saw it happening live on X.
I mean, neocons were saying crazy stuff.
They were saying deport him.
I'm like, what do you mean deport?
We don't even deport—we didn't even deport Jeffrey Epstein.
And he got, like, convicted of crimes, by the way, I should mention, in Florida when he just got house arrest for actually crimes against minors.
That all happened in the state of Florida.
And I have never seen that same group of neocons radically speaking about Jeffrey Epstein.
Nothing.
They're silent about all those matters, but they freak out about you.
I saw it happening live, and then now you're telling me that as soon as you landed— In the state of Florida, as an American citizen, the state rolled up and seized your electronics.
Under what pretext?
What do they say to you?
Well, exactly right.
It's very, very interesting.
They fear me so heavily.
They talk about me like I am the devil incarnate.
And I've never been convicted of any crime anywhere on the planet ever.
They fear me because of my political power.
They fear me because I can galvanize the masculine youth in any direction that I believe fit.
And I serve our commander-in-chief.
I believe in all of the prepositions of Donald Trump.
If Donald Trump believes Byron is going to be a better governor of Florida than DeSantis' wife, I'm likely going to agree with him.
And I guess that's why they decided to attack me.
When I landed, the customs officers sat there and said, we have to go through all of your phones and all of your laptops.
And I said, why?
And they said, we've been instructed from the absolute top level to search every single thing about your life.
And I said, well, I don't see a warrant.
This is very interesting.
They said, if you don't tell us the passwords, we're going to seize them.
I said, well, you're welcome to seize them, sir.
I don't talk to police.
I don't tell passwords.
Go break it with your little software.
Go bust in.
And from that second, the criminal investigation was opened before I even landed on Floridian soil.
So it turns out, from what I understand, I'm caught in some power struggle for Floridian politics.
They fear me for some reason.
And they're going to pretend I'm the worst person in the world.
And any of these people on Twitter who want to come and attack me over some video I made 10 years ago, they need to wake up.
The people who are in charge of this country are stealing your money.
They are sending it to foreign wars.
They are blowing little children to pieces.
They're the ones going to Epstein Island.
And they divert all of the negative attention for their heinous acts towards me.
And you believe it.
They say I'm the bad guy so often that you believe I'm the bad guy, not the people who are stealing your money and blowing people to pieces in foreign wars.
I have never been convicted of any crime in my life.
You can walk down to the mall and walk around the mall and you'll walk amongst people who have been convicted of crimes.
I've been investigated for five solid years by four different agencies and never convicted.
I'm one of the most innocent people on the planet.
And here I land in my host nation and they start again.
It's truly Truly saddening.
And I know that this AG is just trying to make a name for himself.
And he thinks he's a smartass.
But I hopefully, in fact, I have a strong suspicion once they find out that my phones and laptops are empty and I haven't even been in Florida for more than four days in my life, that they're going to look pretty dumb when they have absolutely nothing to get me on.
So then what happens, right?
But I don't know how far and how crazy these people are.
I don't know to what lengths they're going to make crap up to try and save themselves after this.
Complete clown show.
Why didn't they just investigate me in quiet?
Let's pretend this is about law and order, and they're truly concerned for the citizens of Florida.
Then follow me around with secret police and investigate me in quiet, and if you find something, arrest me.
Why the song?
Why the dance?
Why the press?
Why the public?
Why are you doing all of this if you're not trying to divert people away from the important things?
The important things, like all the actual crime and corruption that's happening.
I had no interest at all in Floridian politics.
I actually, truthfully, thought Ron DeSantis was a good governor.
And that's why I gave him the benefit of the doubt and didn't even destroy him yesterday on Patrick Bet-David.
I was very kind to him.
Yes, he failed a competency test.
Yes, he failed.
But I could have been far worse.
I could have completely destroyed him and made a clown of him.
him.
But I actually thought maybe he's a pretty good governor.
I don't know.
I knew he was good under COVID.
I thought he was a pretty good guy.
As far as I knew Ron DeSantis before I flew here, he was a good guy.
Turns out I was absolutely and utterly wrong.
You know, a couple of things frustrate me about this.
this.
The first thing is the amount of people that are weighing in on your Romanian case who have never read, they have no idea what the case is about.
And the first way that you know that they don't know what it's about is because they keep showing videos of you from before the time that they're even referring to on the case.
Like I, I actually took the time to read through that case and I came out and I explained everything to everyone slowly with, you know, names, details, everything.
And I said, here is why I do not think that this case is going to go through in Romania.
I think I, I made a prediction years ago that it was going to get dismissed because of a lack of okay?
And I got hammered for that.
Oh, Candace, look at this video of him here.
Guys, guys, I don't care about it.
If I'm the person doing the Harvey Weinstein series, I don't care about anything but the actual evidence that is in the case.
And I am telling you what I am looking at and it's not good.
Then that happens.
Then the courts agree with me.
Years later, and they say there's not enough evidence, so we're going to send it back down.
We're going to overturn this, and you're going to have to bring up new charges.
We're still going to keep this open, whatever it is that they say.
And there's no let.
There's no like, oh, okay, maybe there's something here that I'm missing.
Maybe I should actually, if I'm this passionate about Andrew Tate, and I hate him so much, maybe I should try to read and understand what it is they're prosecuting against in Romania.
No, they don't want to do work.
They want to pick a side, and they want pitchforks, and they want to go after people based on mob men.
And the thing is, I believe in due process.
And I am calling on people to understand that somebody landing who has not been convicted of a crime in their home country, who has the police swarm them and say, give us all of your technology because we're launching a preliminary investigation because neocons are upset on the Internet, is problematic for all of us.
It's problematic left and right for all of us.
It's scary for all Americans, and you made a fantastic point there, and I've kind of understood that the people who hate me, they need something to attack me with.
They can't call me stupid, and they can't call me unsuccessful, and they can't call me anything other than massively influential.
So they hate when I win my criminal cases.
So instead of addressing that, they ignore it.
I have beaten my cases.
They keep repeating it.
They know I've beaten my case.
They keep saying I haven't.
They keep pulling up little pieces of paper saying, oh, he beat the case.
It was sent back, but technically it's still open.
No, technically it has a file number, a dormant file number like every other closed case.
Or when I address old videos and I explain where they come from and I explain the context or I explain why it appeared on the Internet, they see the full explanation exonerating me.
They ignore it.
They ignore all the exonerations.
They ignore all of my victories.
And they continue to repeat over and over things that they know are not true because they have illogical blind hatred and fear for my influence.
It doesn't matter how many times I win in court.
It doesn't matter how many times I bust case.
It doesn't matter how many times I explain myself.
Doesn't matter how many times they are wrong, they're going to continue to repeat this over and over.
And then we have the AG of this once great state talking about how he's concerned for Floridians and nobody abuses girls in Florida.
Oh, except Epstein, I guess.
And let's talk about human trafficking.
If you want to go down to a club in Miami and count how many girls have OnlyFans and OnlyFans managers, or if you want to talk about rape, let's go count the girls walking out of clubs drunk out of their mind and high on Percocet.
Walking home with men they barely know in this state.
You can walk around and see girls doing porn, having sex, running all over Florida, doing all these things.
And I turn up here, and what have I done since I've arrived?
I did Patrick Bet-David and sat on my laptop.
That's all I've done.
I've been Patrick Bet-David, I sat on my laptop, and I had Taco Bell, and I've got a criminal investigation?
Yeah.
Where the fuck?
It doesn't even make any fucking sense.
And I also want to be clear, and I would like to express this, everyone in the conservative movement is a liar with this new, well, if you're this or you're that, then you're not a conservative.
I want to be very clear.
I ran every conservative circle that you can think of.
You name a conservative influencer.
I have been at that dinner party.
I have been in that conversation.
I have been on that network, whether it is as a guest.
Nobody had an issue with you.
Okay?
Despite your case going on, until you hopped onto Piers Morgan on October 9th and said that you were pro-Palestine and called it a genocide.
I watched overnight.
Overnight.
They went from, okay, he's fine.
You can talk to Andrew Tate.
Everyone wanted to know Andrew Tate, figure out his platform, to a complete 180 and trying to say, well, it's not Christian, it's not this, he's a bad guy.
And suddenly everybody wanted to look into Andrew Tate.
I watched that happen live, okay?
So any person who would like to debate me on that, who is a neocon, who is pretending that they've held these perspectives about Andrew Tate forever since the investigations began, please, I invite you to have that conversation with me because you're all...
Okay, let's not dress this up as something that it isn't.
This is about Andrew Tate saying something that you don't want him to say because he's too influential.
If he took a Likud party position and he said, kill every last Palestinian, he would be governor of Florida.
You know, it's very interesting because I felt it myself.
When I had these accusations, everybody understood, well, they've done this to Donald Trump and they did it in New York.
And this is happening in Romania and it's all very old and the judicial system there can't be trusted.
And they haven't even managed to have an election because it's so corrupt.
And this doesn't really make sense.
And why did they attack him when he got big online?
Everyone was on my side until that exact day.
And after that day, they all instantly turned on me.
The second I said we shouldn't be blowing children to pieces, the second I criticized Israel, that was the day where I lost all of the support from the conservative side.
Was that not me as well?
Have we not seen this trend happening over and over and over again?
Candace Owens was totally fine.
She was never considered anti-Semitic in Adolf Hitler.
All of a sudden she speaks up about a human right violation and says, too many Palestinian children are dying.
And what happened to me?
Overnight.
They gave me anti-Semite of the year.
Every friend.
Oh my God, something's happened.
This is happening too much.
It's too obvious at this point.
It's too obvious.
It's not even casual.
You assassinate, you go after, and you attack people.
And the reason that I believe they're doing this to you is because they're losing, okay?
The neocon influence, it's waning.
Everybody can see that.
They can see that in the numbers.
Organizations that were big and used to have influence don't anymore.
And so when people lose influence, they essentially go, I don't want to do the free markets anymore.
anymore.
I can't win in the free markets.
Okay.
So how do we just get rid of the competition?
These people that purport to love the battle of ideas.
Oh, it's about the bet.
Let the best idea win.
They're the ones that call for censorship.
They were the ones that were telling you to, to censor my new, uh, my new platform, get rid of Candace, demonetize her, do all these things.
I've lived it, Andrew.
And that is why I'm very aware of what's happening to you.
And I'm sick of people trying to dress it up as something else.
Even sicker as I'm trying to pretend that it's like, we're doing it because of our Christianity.
No, you can no longer win in the free markets of ideas.
So you are going after every person who does not hold your personal perspectives about war because it's no longer favorable.
OK, it's no longer favorable left and right.
Completely right.
And you know what?
That's one more thing I want to say.
I don't know all these people who keep saying that my case in Romania, they pretend they give a shit about it.
How much blood am I supposed to give to a foreign, questionable judicial system?
When I've never even had a trial, they've had three years of my life.
I've been to jail.
I was locked in my house for two years.
I haven't seen my children.
I missed my grandmother's funeral.
My mother had a heart attack.
I was stuck in Romania with no money, no cars, no access to my passport or my cryptocurrency.
All of it was taken away from me.
And in the end, they say there's not enough evidence for a trial.
And they send it back to be dormant.
And people are sitting there saying I should give them more than three years of respecting their judicial system and just sit there for the next five years having my life wasted by some prosecutor who's funded by George Soros anyway?
What kind of clown world are we living in?
These people hate me so viscerally that they throw all due process out the window.
The people who hate me are going to sit here and pretend that what Florida's doing is a fine, perfectly normal thing.
When we all know it's communistic and it is dystopian, this is the Stasi themselves.
And it's amazing.
I actually love that you said that yourself, Candace, because when I've said that everything changed on October 9th after I criticized Israel's actions, I got called conspiracy theorists.
But you felt it.
You've seen it.
I was told it.
You became persona non grata overnight.
Literally overnight, it was just, Andrew Tate now is this, and totally everybody was pretending that they were invested in what was happening in Romania, but it had already been happening.
It was already happening, and no one cared.
And now all of a sudden they're making these strong statements, no one should speak to him.
I mean, this is America, what do you mean no one should speak to him?
I've been speaking to Harvey Weinstein for two years, I believe he was wrongly convicted.
He's a left-leaning, ADL-supporting, it doesn't matter to me, because this is not the way due process should work, okay?
And people...
People should not be prosecuted because you don't like their ideas or you want something for them.
We have to make sure we protect our judicial system.
And so when I hear this, they took your technology as soon as you landed.
What should be happening right now is left and right pressure should be put on Ron DeSantis and this attorney general to make a statement as to why that was done, under what grounds a preliminary investigation is done.
I want to know what is the legal route to getting Ron DeSantis' text messages that day.
I want to know who was texting Ron DeSantis.
Is it a FOIA request?
Who was emailing Ron DeSantis and texting him?
I don't want your phone.
I want his.
Okay?
Your phone makes no sense to me.
I want Ron DeSantis' phone.
I want the Attorney General's phone.
I want Utmeier's phone.
I want to know what donors texted you and told you to move.
Because you were moving for donors and money and corruption no different than a George Soros DA was doing.
And I don't care if it's left or right.
Wrong is wrong.
You nailed it.
And you know what's interesting?
This word, preliminary.
You know I went to jail.
Preliminarily.
You know I was locked in my house.
Preliminarily.
You know they stole all my money.
Preliminarily.
Then I fly to America, a supposedly free country.
Let's remember, Romania was communist until 1989. I thought that was a communist nation.
I fly to a free nation.
Preliminarily, they steal my electronics to preliminarily try and nail a crime on me.
My whole life has been preliminarily being destroyed and no one's managed to come up with any kind of solid case against me ever.
And it doesn't matter because I am being wrecked by the process.
That's all they want to do.
They want to endlessly process me and destroy my reputation, destroy my name.
Take my money away and make it incapable.
What they're trying to do is make it impossible for anybody to stand next to me because they know if I endorse somebody, I have power.
So they want everybody afraid to affiliate their name with mine because of these stupid garbage charges that they keep preliminarily pulling out of their ass.
They never have any evidence for anything.
It's all preliminary.
And it's truly, I'll be honest, Candace, if I was a slightly more sentimental man, part of me wants to cry.
Because this is so fucking ridiculous.
This is so heartbreaking and so sad.
For four solid years, every single day, I have protected my reputation.
I've protected my freedom.
I've tried to financially provide for my family and protect my children for four solid years.
And for the first time in four years, I finally had a genuine smile on my face.
That private plane to Florida, I land to another preliminary investigation.
Why?
Why?
I haven't done anything to anybody.
You want to find a criminal, there's plenty of them out there.
They don't have a victim.
They don't have a witness statement.
They don't have anyone complaining about me.
They don't have a medical record.
They have nothing.
They have me who they don't like.
That's it.
And he said there's plenty of evidence.
I'm like, oh, okay, so I'm supposed to believe that legal process took place within minutes, is what he wants us to believe, because he made a statement on the day that you landed that they were opening that preliminary investigation.
Now you're telling us they moved to collect your electronics, and we're supposed to believe that it took him—what, did you land on Thursday?
Like, did you land on Thursday?
Has it been—has it even been one week?
So they have their—it's so together.
It takes years for them to bring about Jeffrey Epstein any charges, but they were able to do this in the state of Florida.
They were able to preliminary and then move to a criminal investigation after five days.
It took them five days.
Well, if they had the warrant to take my electronics when I landed, it turns out their preliminary investigation into a criminal investigation took less than that.
It took my flight.
Which is 11 hours.
Because they already had.
I don't think they would announce search warrants before they search.
If they were going to raid the house I'm currently in, I guess they would do it before they tell me their search warrants.
So I think the search warrants and the subpoenas they're talking about are the ones they've already executed when I landed.
And they took all of my electronics.
That's what I'm assuming.
Perhaps tomorrow morning I'll have guests.
But I've had my house raided six times.
Six!
Six times I woke up to guns.
Six!
And I've never been to jail.
So I guess I'm used to it by now.
So I'm just gonna say yes, sir, no, sir, and comply, like I did every other time, to keep my life.
But it's absolutely incredible.
So I'm assuming these subpoenas were actually dragged up in the 11-hour flight.
And what I understand from my preliminary investigations is that they were based on the old videos, which I've debunked a thousand times, which every single girl involved has also debunked, which didn't even take place in Florida.
They took place in Romania in 2013. Is there no other crime in Florida?
I mean, this is crazy.
If you're going to say that a man said something on YouTube, so let's launch a preliminary investigation and take all of his phones and laptops, then let's go get 50 Cent for saying he's a PIMP. I can find a PIMP video of him on YouTube right now.
Let's take his shit.
What kind of world is this?
It's kind of incredible.
And part of it is humbling.
But truthfully, the way they talk about me, the feminine frame of fear in which my name is used, these people talk about me like I can melt minds.
I'm a full-grown man who had just been stuck in Romania for three years for absolutely no reason, who finally got freedom back and thought, you know what?
To show respect to our commander-in-chief and this new administration, why don't I go home for the first time in nearly seven years?
I could have chosen anywhere.
I could have gone Thailand.
I could have gone Dubai.
I thought, you know what?
Let me go home.
And this is the welcome I get.
Let me tell you, I am grateful that this, if you can just think of things to be grateful for, I am so grateful that Ron DeSantis never became president.
My instincts were always right about him.
He is a person that has no real power.
He's just tailing between his legs, does whatever his donors want.
I mean, if he wanted to make this look authentic, he could have waited a month.
You know, he could have been like, well, you know, we saw him here and he said some stuff.
I mean, he literally, it was like they took what was on my X feed from neocons.
Just said, OK, we're moving on that.
You can't tell me you launched an entire investigation.
He didn't even sound like he knew what he was talking about at the press conference.
He just said he's not welcome here.
Who's not welcome here?
What are you talking about?
Speak at length here.
It seemed like he wanted to get off the topic very quickly because he didn't know anything about it.
Do you think Ron DeSantis read through your Romanian case?
Do you think Ron DeSantis or James or the AG read through your case?
And did any of that stop?
Did any work?
No.
No, they had videos that were being sent and texted to them, and that's why I think we have to have access to those messages.
And I am a person that truly believes that left and right there is so much corruption.
It truly is a swamp, you know?
And I'm not shocked by this because I, like I said, never for a single day was I behind Ron DeSantis because I saw that he was easily moved.
Easily moved by money and influence.
And you can see that even in the laws.
He's one of the governors that's squeezing speech, like creating extra laws for anti-Semitism in Florida, as if it's a special kind of hatred.
It's not.
Okay, hate is hate.
It doesn't matter if it's happening to a black person, a white person, or a Jewish person.
And I don't like him.
And this just further put that nail in the DeSantis coffin for me.
He's not a leader.
He's pathetic.
He's weak.
And he can't express himself as a man and stand on principle.
This is my opinion.
And he should be replaced.
He should be replaced.
Unless he can tomorrow stand before in a press conference and explain his logic on sending people to take your technology and explain why he had to launch a preliminary investigation as opposed to of doing it years ago.
If he can offer a valuable explanation, then I will go, okay, maybe.
But I'm doubting that, okay?
This is reactive, and this is show me the man and I will find the crime.
Yeah, absolutely.
And, you know, as heartbroken as I am and as sad as I am about what's happening, I guess I have one gift from God.
And that gift from God is that I've never really known battle fatigue.
I was very happy on the flight over here after four long years, and I was prepared to finally put all of this garbage behind me and enjoy my life.
But it turns out that God himself has another plan, and I will fight.
Tooth and nail to the absolute end to expose every piece of shit, corrupt actor, no matter where they work, in whatever level of office that they're in, who is currently trying to suppress due process in this country.
Things have changed.
Kamala lost.
Trump is back.
This is a new America.
You're not going to be allowed to do the stupid things you were doing before.
This is the same idiots who went after Trump.
Latita James has now got a new name.
He's had a sex change, and he works in Florida, and these people are trying to do it all over again.
And I am telling you that this will not end well for them.
It will not end well for Ron.
I have no interest in stopping his wife from becoming governor, but suddenly I do.
You should not be trying to put innocent men in jail to score political points who have been through enough in foreign nations that do not respect due process.
And it doesn't matter if you like me.
It doesn't matter if you like what I say.
It doesn't matter if you agree with me.
I deserve a fair trial.
You deserve a fair trial.
Everybody deserves a fair trial.
That is the basis of democracy.
That is the American way.
And as soon as that is impeded, even against your enemies, sitting at home and saying, well, I don't like Andrew Tate, so it's fine for his rights to be impeded and sampled all over, is the biggest mistake you can make.
Because after they're done with me, they're going to come for you.
Luckily, whether you like me or not, I'm going to fight for all of us.
I totally agree.
And so what is your lawyer saying the next steps are in terms of just dealing with this?
I mean, he must just be completely confused, especially given the fact that you guys had brought a case, for those of us who read it, had brought a case against the girl who launched everything in Romania.
I mean, I read her messages, I read the WhatsApp text messages, and that is why I said this case is not going to go through in Romania.
What is your lawyer saying about this insanity?
Yeah, absolutely.
We currently have a civil case against a woman who lives in Florida who lied to Romanian police, who started that whole saga.
And it's going very well and we're winning and they've been delaying as much as they can.
It's very interesting that her legal team is a liberally funded George Soros NGO. Wonder where they came from and where they get their money from.
But, you know, she has endless lawyers somehow.
So they've been trying to delay the case as long as possible because she's banged to rights guilty.
And we looked like that they may have been involved in this whole mess, trying to use it as an excuse to once again delay the civil proceedings against her.
I would actually, if you could take the time, if you could talk to my lawyer directly, I would love for you to have him on because he knows even more than I do about this.
But he's as flabbergasted as I am.
Everybody is just expressing shock and absolute disappointment that this is the welcome home I get after all this long, long period of time in foreign incarceration.
This is insane.
And I mean, I guess you probably don't want to be in Florida anymore.
No, I don't.
It has become a hot hub for neocons.
I will say that.
The thing is, if I leave now, they're going to think I'm guilty of something.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to stay right here.
I'm going to stay right here.
I am right here.
You know what's funny?
I'm such a reasonable man.
I am truly not a hardhead like people think.
If Ron would have called me privately and said, please just go to another state, you know what I would have said?
No problem.
I would have just left.
I'm not a hard guy to deal with.
If I'm really not welcome, I won't stay.
I don't want to overstay a welcome.
But you want to play these games?
I'm right here in Miami.
I'm right here in Miami.
Come get me.
Arrest me.
Perp walk me.
Put me on the news.
Tell everyone I'm a human trafficker.
You think I'm not versed?
You think I'm not ready?
I'm a baby seal in this shit.
Fucking come get me.
Raid my house.
Take my stuff.
You think I sleep with a phone full of evidence?
You think I don't wipe my phone every night?
You think I'm dumb?
Come get me.
Arrest me.
Let's do this all over again.
I've been here for four years in Romania.
You think I'm scared of your state jail after an Eastern European Gulag?
I'm staying right here until the case is concluded.
Because when I beat it here, then what are they going to say?
I beat it in England, I beat it in Romania, and I beat it in Florida.
I beat it everywhere because I haven't done anything to anyone.
And if they think they have evidence to arrest me, I'm sure that's exactly what they're going to do.
I'm waiting.
I will turn on the kettle at 5 a.m.
every morning.
Hot coffee for every officer.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Come do it.
Let's go.
I'm not going anywhere.
That's the way to do it.
I mean, the only way—you just have to go through it, you know what I mean?
And that's the reality that we live in.
There's corruption everywhere, whether it's in Europe.
We've been speaking about that with the Emmanuel Macron case, whether it's happening in Romania, whether it's happening here.
And for whatever reason, people think that you have to like someone in order to stand up and say what is happening here is wrong.
And that is not the case.
I do not agree with everything Andrew Tate has done in his past.
I have spoken to you on air about those disagreements and your past.
We have different faiths.
I am Christian.
You are Muslim.
You have perspectives.
I got through part of— We're good to go.
You know, why men like you.
It's just interesting, you know?
I think it's the it factor that drives them crazy.
It's the influence.
And I'm sitting here, I'm going, I don't agree with this.
I don't agree with that.
They don't have the courage to disagree with you, Andrew.
They don't even have the courage to sit down and have the debate and say, I disagree with you on that.
They just want you wiped from the influence map because they have wiped themselves from the map of influence.
That is my take on this.
I truly believe that.
And if you wanted me to have a different take, like I said, you could have waited two months to go after him.
Made it seem organic, you know?
This doesn't seem organic to me.
It feels like chicken filled with antibiotics.
So you might get a stop and shop.
You know what I mean?
This is just not organic.
This entire process is not organic.
And it's so obvious to the public.
And so I'm just calling on people to, if you...
Think you passionately hate Andrew Tate.
Take the time like I did to go through the case in Romania, not what the news and the media told you about it, not what your Twitter told you about it, not what videos of Andrew looking 15 years younger tells you about it or about him and his personality.
Look at the actual criminal case, understand why it was overturned and sent back down to its starting phase, and then come back and ask yourself why Ron DeSantis did what he did.
Truly ask yourself that question.
Just look at all of the evidence before you that the public opinion in America changed on Andrew Tate after he made statements about the children of Palestine.
That's it.
That's my opinion on it, Andrew.
I totally respect you for taking this fight to them.
There's no other way but through it, like I said.
Is there anything else that you want to say to the public that they're watching this?
This will really be your first statement since this has all happened.
I guess I feel like I have a lot to say, but to keep it short and succinct, I'm not hoping for any kind of special treatment from anybody.
I certainly do not want any kind of advantages from anybody because I'm well known in any way.
But I also don't want any detractions because of that.
All I want is a fair trial and fair treatment under the law like every other citizen of the United States.
And that's something we should all be championing for each other.
The Democrats have lost.
Trump is back.
This is a new America.
We're making America great again.
The reason you live in this country, the reason all of us are Americans are for this exact reason.
We all believe in law and order.
We all believe in due process.
We all believe in innocent until proven guilty.
You can stop pretending I'm guilty of something I've never been accused of, I've never been charged with, I've never been convicted of in a foreign country, a foreign country where even a conviction would be highly questionable.
I wasn't even convicted.
It's innocent until proven guilty.
This is due process.
This is democracy.
This is Trump's America.
And throwing that out the window simply because you have personal opinions on somebody is exactly how the left win.
That's how the liberals managed to hijack our entire system.
Because they would simply insult you in the media long enough for people to accept your rights being violated.
It's a very simple tactic.
They insult you in the media, then they violate your rights, and there's always some idiot at home with three brain cells who goes, well, I don't like him anyway.
It doesn't matter.
That doesn't matter.
What matters is that our rights are respected, and we all have an essential proof of guilty, and we all have due process.
And you should expect it of me just like I expect it for you.
I completely agree with that statement, especially regarding due process, you guys.
I hope you hear that.
I'll be reading your comments in a bit.
We have to hop off to join.
Trump, or listen to Trump rather, his joint address to Congress, to a joint Congress pardon.
And Andrew, I'll be wishing you luck.
And I'm angry about it.
I just think it's wrong the way that this went down.
I think you're saying that you're going to investigate someone and then you're going to find a crime is sleazy business.
And I've got a lot of questions for Ron DeSantis.
I always have.
I just don't trust the guy.
Okay.
Thank you so much for joining and we'll be in touch.
Thank you.
Thank you very much, Kenneth.
Thank you.

Should we get into Trump's speech?
Has he begun yet?
Oh, he's walking in.
Wow, guys, we could not have had better timing in terms of this.
So that's amazing.
So what we'll do while he's jumping in before we cut to that stream, actually, if you want to bring the stream in and put it on silent, Mark, that's totally fine.
We can start reading through some of these super chats here.
Let's see if Candace can figure out how to use super chats.
Okay, they have to put it in the script for me because I've told you guys I'm a grandma, and it's a grandma.
It's past my bedtime.
Regarding this, Marla Egger was just speaking to Andrew Tate.
As a student in the real world, I assure you this man is nowhere near as bad as the media or as haters claim.
20 years ago, no one would have blinked an eye at anything he says.
This is crazy.
Stay strong, Tate's.
Jane Ferris writes, thank you both for everything you do.
Fadwa writes, I respect that man.
He doesn't give up.
Zyra writes, I was waiting for this conversation.
When will you have a Christian on?
Come back, Andrew.
Cis Holiday writes, Can't ask for a better Tuesday night than Candace and Tate live together.
Dr. Deeb writes, Candace, thank you.
You're absolutely right.
ADL attacks.
That's correct.
I do believe the ADL has something to do with this.
Ali writes, anyone hating on Andrew Tate, he does not deserve his treatment.
It's terrifying that this is happening to him.
It doesn't matter if you like him or not.
Get over yourself and stand up for American rights.
I wish we could do that left and right.
Defend someone on the left if the due process, if you feel it's being violated, defend someone on the right.
And lastly, Netsi writes, What a blessed day.
Twice in one day.
Can never have enough of your show.
Netsi from Sydney.
Okay, guys, here we have Trump.
It looks like he's about to make the address.
So, again, our timing was perfect here.
Obviously, you can see that J.D. Vance and Mike Johnson are behind him.
And, yeah, let's just jump right into what he has to say to a joint Congress.
Melania, my favorite.
Oh, he just gives her a point.
That's it, a point.
I feel like I need a hug.
I love her.
I stan Melania.
Forever.
To me and her forever.
Besties.
I don't know if she knows I exist.
Doesn't matter.
You should see.
Thank you.
18 minutes late.
I'll allow it.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
It's a great honor.
Thank you very much.
Speaker Johnson, Vice President Vance, the First Lady of the United States.
Members of the United States, Congress, thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
And to my fellow citizens, America is back.
Not in Florida, but okay.
USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
Six weeks ago, I stood beneath the dome of this Capitol and proclaimed the dawn of the Golden Age of America.
From that moment on, it has been nothing but swift and unrelenting action to usher in the greatest and most successful era in the history of our country.
We have accomplished more in 43 days than most administrations accomplished in four years or eight years, and we are just getting started.
I feel like it's hot with Elon Musk, right?
Like, he's got to just like, I don't know, chill a little bit.
He's everywhere with Trump all the time.
I return to this chamber tonight to report.
that America's momentum is back, our spirit is back, our pride is back, our confidence is back, and the American dream is surging bigger and better than ever before.
The American dream is unstoppable, and our country is on the verge of a comeback the likes of which the world has never witnessed and perhaps will never witness again.
There's never been anything like it.
The presidential election of November 5th was a mandate like has not been seen in many decades.
we won all seven swing states giving us an electoral college victory of 312 votes.
Mark, what's on the...
We won the popular vote by big numbers and won counties in our country.
What's going on here?
USA! USA! USA!
What's going on here?
What's the canyon?
USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
What is it, Scott?
We won counties in our country, 2,700 to 525, on a map that reads almost completely red for Republican.
Now, for the first time in modern history, more Americans believe that our country is headed in the right direction than the wrong direction.
I kind of love J.D. Vance, like about to play the security guard.
27-point swing, the most ever.
Look at Jadie Fibbs.
He's ready to take someone out.
Thank you.
It's our guy, Tom Homan, at the border.
Likewise, small business optimism, so its single largest one-month gain ever recorded, a 41-point...
I just can't believe these are people that we elect to go.
These are just not an adult situation.
Yeah.
Why is everybody being ghetto?
Sit down.
You're acting ghetto.
Then get out.
Somebody just get him out.
I'm so disappointed.
Yes, just take him out.
We gotta get a bouncer in here.
You guys know I did not stay up late past my bedtime to watch anything ghetto on TV right now.
I'm not doing it.
I'm not doing it.
I'll go to bed.
I'll go to bed right now.
This is ghetto.
He's got to get out.
What happened to this country?
It's an iteration of respect.
Take your seat, sir.
Take your seat.
Get out.
Okay, he's got to go.
He's got to go.
Our members continue to engage in willful and concerted disruption of proper decorum.
The chair now directs the sergeant at arms to restore order.
Guys, this is our government.
I just want to let you know.
I just want to let you know.
If you're like, am I at a club right now on a Thursday night, someone had too many drinks?
No, this is our government.
This is reality now.
Everyone's got to get kicked out.
Delency's got to get kicked out.
This guy's got to get kicked out.
What's his name?
What's his name, guys?
It's Al Green.
Who?
Al Green, the representative.
Oh yeah, that's right.
Al Green's getting bounced.
This is crazy.
What a cane!
What is this?
Al, Al, this is ghetto.
You're not serving your district.
You're not tough.
Okay, now we can read their little paddles.
It says save Medicaid.
This is just not what it's supposed to be, guys.
This is not what it's supposed to be.
Over the past six weeks, I have signed nearly 100 executive orders and taken more than 400 executive actions, a record, to restore common sense, safety, optimism, and wealth all across our wonderful land.
The people elected me to do the job, and I'm doing it.
That was wild.
It's just crazy.
How old is Al Green?
Isn't he?
I don't think of his age.
I don't know.
Al Green age.
I don't have to go like that.
In fact, In fact, it has been stated by many that the first month of our presidency, it's our presidency, is the most successful in the history of our nation.
By many.
Thank you.
And what makes it even more impressive is that, do you know who number two is?
George Washington.
How about that?
I don't know about that list, but we'll take it.
Within hours of taking the oath of office, I declared a national emergency on our southern border, and I deployed the U.S. military and border patrol to repel the invasion of our country.
And what a job they've done.
As a result, illegal border crossings last month were by far the lowest ever recorded.
Ever.
That is something.
you gotta respect that they heard my words and they chose not to come Much easier that way.
In comparison under Joe Biden, the worst president in American history, there were hundreds of thousands of illegal crossings a month, and virtually all of them, including murderers, drug dealers, gang members, and people from mental institutions and insane asylums, were released into our country.
Who would want to do that?
This is my fifth such speech to Congress.
And once again, I look at the Democrats in front of me and I realize there is absolutely nothing I can say to make them happy or to make them stand or smile or applaud.
Nothing I can do.
I could find a cure to the most devastating disease, a disease that would wipe out entire nations or announce the answers to the greatest economy in history.
Or the stoppage of crime to the lowest levels ever recorded.
And these people sitting right here will not clap, will not stand, and certainly will not cheer for these astronomical achievements.
They won't do it.
No matter what.
Five times I've been up here.
It's very sad.
And it just shouldn't be this way.
I kind of respect women for owning that.
She's like, yeah, we're partisan.
We're never going to say give you credit for anything.
It's just so ridiculous.
And all of them, both sides, by the way, take money from lobbyists.
So you guys are united in some ways.
So Democrats sitting before me for just this one night...
Why not join us in celebrating so many incredible wins for America?
He's trolling now.
For the good of our nation, let's work together and let's truly make America great again.
He's like, come on, we got this.
Just one applaud.
Come on, y'all are all taking big pharma money.
You know you want to...
Oh, Nancy almost did it.
Look at that.
She was like, all right, come on.
There's corruption on both sides.
Every day my administration is fighting to deliver the change America needs to bring a future that America deserves.
And we're doing it.
This is a time for big dreams and bold action.
Upon taking office, I imposed an immediate freeze on all federal hiring, a freeze on all new federal regulations, and a freeze on all foreign aid.
I terminated the ridiculous Green News scam.
I withdrew from the unfair Paris Climate Accord, which was costing us trillions of dollars that other countries were not paying.
I withdrew from the corrupt World Health Organization.
That's amazing.
But we've got to talk about RFK because that MNR stuff is sliding.
And it also withdrew from the Anti-American U.N. Human Rights Council.
No, that's a boo.
That was completely at the instruction of the Ku Klux party in Israel.
We ended all of Biden's environmental restrictions that were making our country far less safe and totally unaffordable.
And importantly, we ended the last administration's insane electric vehicle mandate, saving our auto workers and companies from economic destruction.
But see, Elon Musk is there and he was like, the whole future is electric.
So I have questions about that.
Like, I know Trump disagrees with that, and I just wonder how him and Elon discuss that topic.
To unshackle our economy, I have directed that for every one new regulation, ten old regulations must be eliminated, just like I did in my very successful first day.
Fantastic.
And in that first term, we set records on ending unnecessary rules and regulations, like no other president had done before.
We ordered all federal workers to return to the office.
they will either show up for work in person or be removed from their job.
Marjorie Taylor Greene, Pat that says Trump is right about everything.
And we've ended weaponized government where, as an example, a sitting president is allowed to viciously prosecute his political opponent.
Ron DeSantis.
How did that work out?
Not too good.
Not too good.
For the record, I don't think it ever works out to be corrupt.
So on one side of their paddles, it says save Medicaid.
On the other side of their paddle, it says, Musk steals.
And I have stopped all government censorship and brought back free speech in America.
- Yeah, it's back.
Yeah.
We've got that, guys.
Free speech is back.
There's not speech about Israel.
And two days ago, I signed an order making English the official language of the United States of America.
What was it before?
I'm so scared.
I renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.
Let's make a note of that Skylar when he comes out.
I renamed for a great president, William McKinley, Mount McKinley again.
Beautiful Alaska.
We love Alaska.
We've ended the tyranny of so-called diversity, equity, and inclusion policies all across the entire federal government and, indeed, the private sector and our military.
That's great.
And our country will be woke no longer.
We believe that whether you are a doctor, an accountant, a lawyer, or an air traffic controller, you should be hired and promoted based on skill you should be hired and promoted based on skill and competence, not race or gender.
Very important.
It's crazy how basic we become as a nation, that, like, things that should just be common sense, we have to, like, sign laws for, you know?
You should be hired.
We signed in a law that men and women are different.
And the Supreme Court, in a brave and very powerful decision, has allowed us to do so.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
We have removed the poison of critical race theory from our public schools, and I signed an order making it the...
Official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female.
That's great, but also as a nation that we are at this point is very sad.
It's just very sad that we have to have a president sign these things so they can be recognized.
I also signed an executive order to ban...
Men from playing in women's sports.
We're clapping.
We should be clapping.
I don't know.
But it's like, we very quickly, idiocracy.
Just, I mean, a lot going on.
Three years ago, Peyton McNabb was an all-star high school athlete, one of the best, preparing for a future in college sports.
But when her girls' volleyball match was invaded by a male, He smashed the ball so hard in Peyton's face, causing traumatic brain injury, partially paralyzing her right side, and ending her athletic career.
It was a shot like she's never seen before.
She's never seen anything like it.
Peyton is here tonight in the gallery, and Peyton, from now on, schools will kick the men off the girls' team, or they will lose all federal funding.
I mean, that's just sad that she had to live through that.
Poor girl.
Poor girl.
Also, Usha looks lovely.
I think she always looks very lovely.
She's always very well dressed.
Matt Walsh!
The homie Matt Walsh is in the building.
And if you really want to see numbers, Just take a look at what happened in the women's boxing, weightlifting, track and field, swimming, or cycling, where a male recently finished a long-distance race five hours and 14 minutes ahead of a woman for a new record by five hours.
Broke the record by five hours.
It's demeaning for women, and it's very bad for our country.
We're not going to put up with it any longer.
Also, just what a weenie you have to be to do that as a man.
And to, like, cross the finish line five hours early and be like, I won!
I'm amazing!
Like, just like a weenie.
What a weenie.
Marley Gaines?
What I have just described is only a small fraction of the common sense revolution that is now, because of us, sweeping the entire world.
Common sense has become a common theme, and we will never...
Go back.
Never.
Never going to let that happen.
Among my very highest priorities is to rescue our economy and get dramatic and immediate relief to working families.
As you know, we inherited from the last administration an economic catastrophe and an inflation nightmare.
Their policies drove up energy prices, pushed up Grocery costs and drove the necessities of life out of reach for millions and millions of Americans.
They've never had anything like it.
We suffered the worst inflation in 48 years, but perhaps even in the history of our country.
They're not sure.
As president, I'm fighting every day to reverse this damage and make America affordable again.
Gosh, I would be so stressed out if this pregnant having to stand up and clap after every sentence.
That's how I know I'm super pregnant, because I've never even thought about that until just now.
Joe Biden especially let the price of eggs get out of control.
The egg price is out of control.
And we're working hard to get it back.
Down, Secretary.
Do a good job on that.
You inherited a total mess from the previous administration.
Do a good job.
They destroy all the eggs.
Oh, my gosh.
I think there's another protest happening.
A major focus of our fight to defeat inflation is rapidly reducing the cost of energy.
The previous administration cut the number of new oil and gas leases by 95 percent.
Slowed pipeline construction to a halt and closed more than 100 power plants.
We are opening up many of those power plants right now.
How does that conflict with Elon Musk's vision for, like, everyone should be driving an electric car in the future?
That's the kind of stuff that I'm really interested in.
Frankly, we have never seen anything like it.
That's why on my first day in office, I declared a national energy...
Emergency.
As you've heard me say many times, we have more liquid gold under our feet than any nation on Earth and by far.
And now I fully authorize the most talented team ever assembled to go and get it.
It's called Drill Baby Drill.
My administration is also working on a gigantic natural gas pipeline in Alaska, among the largest in the world, where Japan, South Korea, and other nations want to be our partner with investments of trillions of dollars each.
There's never been anything like that one.
It will be truly spectacular.
It's all set to go.
The permitting is gotten.
And later this week, I will also take historic action to dramatically expand production of critical minerals and rare earths here in the USA.
Yeah, but who's that deal with?
with.
Is that with Ukraine?
To further combat inflation, we will not only be reducing the cost of energy, but we'll be ending the flagrant waste of taxpayer dollars.
And to that end.
I have created the brand new Department of Government Efficiency.
Cut to Elon.
Perhaps you've heard of it.
Perhaps.
I don't know.
I've got Elon fatigue.
It's like Taylor Swift at the Super Bowl.
Football games, you know.
She's just there too much.
Which is headed by Elon Musk, who is in the gallery tonight.
He's always in the gallery.
That's the problem.
It's like, you know how Taylor Swift sometimes just goes away and then comes back and drops an album?
I need Elon to do that.
I need him to, like, work on an album and then come back.
I have Elon fatigue.
Thank you, Elon.
He's working very hard.
He didn't need this.
He didn't need this.
Thank you very much.
We appreciate it.
Everybody here, even this side, appreciates it, I believe.
Someone in the chat said at least he's wearing a suit.
That's true.
Just listen to some of the appalling waste.
We have already identified $22 billion from HHS to provide free housing and cars for illegal aliens.
$45 million for diversity, equity, and inclusion scholarships in Burma.
$40 million to improve the social and economic inclusion of sedentary migrants.
Nobody knows what that is.
$8 million to promote LGBTQI +, in the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of.
$60 million for indigenous peoples and Afro-Colombian empowerment in Central America.
$60 million.
$8 million for making mice transgender.
That's very scary.
This is real.
$32 million for a left-wing propaganda operation in Moldova.
$10 million for male circumcision in Mozambique.
$20 million for the Arab Sesame Street in the Middle East.
It's a program.
$20 million for a program.
$1.9 billion to recently created...
Decarbonization of Homes Committee headed up, and we know she's involved.
Just at the last moment, the money was passed over by a woman named Stacey Abrams.
Have you ever heard of her?
A $3.5 million consulting contract for lavish fish monitoring.
$1.5 million for voter confidence in Liberia.
$14 million for social cohesion in Mali.
$59 million for illegal alien hotel rooms in New York City.
This is just money laundering.
He's a real estate developer.
He's done very well.
$250,000 to increase vegan local climate action innovation in Zambia.
$42 million for social and behavior change in Uganda.
$14 million for improving public procurement in Serbia.
$47 million for improving learning outcomes in Asia.
Asia's doing very well with learning.
We don't know what we're doing.
We should use it ourselves.
$101 million for DEI contracts at the Department of Education.
The most ever paid.
Nothing even like it.
Under the Trump administration, all of these scams, and they're far worse, but I didn't think it was appropriate to talk about them.
They're so bad.
Many more have been found out and exposed and swiftly terminated by a group of very intelligent, mostly young people, headed up by Elon, and we appreciate it.
We found hundreds of billions of dollars.
I'm grateful, guys.
I just...
Elon fatigue is not a shot.
Elon's just like, we're just seeing him a lot, you know?
We're just seeing him a lot, that's all.
And I'm pregnant, and I feel like he's just everywhere.
And I just need a little mystery, you know?
I need Jeff Bezos in there for like a little bit or something.
I don't know.
Something bad.
I'm glad he's getting rid of all of this stuff.
It's great.
We get back a lot of that money.
We got it just in time.
This is just the beginning.
The government accountability office, federal government office, has estimated annual fraud of over $500 billion in our nation.
And we are working very hard to stop it.
We're going to.
We're also identifying shocking levels of incompetence and probable fraud in the social security program for our seniors, and that our seniors and people that we love rely on.
Believe it or not, government databases list 4.7 million Social Security members from people aged 100 to 109 years old.
It lists 3.6 million people from ages 110 to 119. I don't know any of them.
I know some people that are rather elderly, but not quite that elderly.
3.47 million people from ages 120 to 129. 3.9 million people from ages 130 to 139. 3.5 million people from ages 140 to 149. And money is being paid to many of them And we're searching right
now.
In fact, Pam, good luck.
Good luck.
You're going to find it.
But a lot of money is paid out to people because it just keeps getting paid and paid and nobody does.
And it really hurts Social Security and hurts our country.
1.3 million people from ages 150 to 159 and over 130,000 people.
According to the social security databases, our age over 160 years old.
We have a healthier country than I thought, Bobby.
That was funny.
We are living to the age of 200, guys.
Including, to finish, 1,039 people between the ages of 220 and 229. One person between the age of 240 and 249. And one person is listed at 360 years of age.
That's amazing.
More than 100 years.
More than 100 years older than our country.
We've got to respect that fraud.
But we're going to find out where that money's going, and it's not going to be pretty.
by slashing all of the fraud, waste, and theft we can find.
We will defeat inflation, bring down mortgage rates, lower car payments and grocery prices, protect our seniors, and put more money in the pockets of American families.
And today, interest rates took a beautiful drop.
Big, beautiful drop.
It's about time.
And in the near future, I want to do what has not been done in 24 years.
Balance the federal budget.
We're going to balance it.
With that goal in mind, we have developed in great detail what we are calling the gold card, which goes on sale very, very soon.
For $5 million, we will allow the most successful job creating people from all over the world to buy a path to U.S. citizenship.
It's like the green card, but better and more sophisticated.
And these people will have to pay tax in our country.
They won't have to pay tax from where they came.
The money that they've made, you wouldn't want to do that, but they have to pay tax, create jobs.
They'll also be taking people out of colleges and paying for them so that we can keep them in our country instead of having them being forced out.
Number one, at the top school, as an example, being forced out and not being allowed to stay and create tremendous numbers of jobs and great success for a company out there.
So while we take out...
The criminals, killers, traffickers, and child predators who are allowed to enter our country under the open-border policy of these people, the Democrats, the Biden administration, the open-border insane policies that you've allowed to destroy our country.
We will now bring in brilliant, hard-working job-creating people.
They're going to pay a lot of money, and we're going to reduce our debt with that money.
Americans have given us a mandate for bold and profound change.
For nearly 100 years, the federal bureaucracy has grown until it has crushed our freedoms, ballooned our deficits, and held back America's potential in every possible way.
The nation founded by pioneers and risk-takers now drowns under millions and millions of pages of regulations and debt.
Approvals that should take 10 days to get instead take 10 years, 15 years, and even 20 years before you're rejected.
Meanwhile, we have hundreds of thousands of federal workers who have not been showing up to work.
my administration will reclaim power from this unaccountable bureaucracy and we will restore true democracy to America again.
The fact that I'm so much younger than Trump and he literally stays up later than me is just amazing.
Any federal bureaucrat who resists this change will be removed from office immediately.
Because we are draining the swamp.
It's very simple.
and the days of rule by unelected bureaucrats are over.
Black people always acting up.
Thank you.
He's probably just tired like me.
That's okay.
And the next phase of our plan to deliver the greatest economy in history is for this Congress to pass tax cuts for everybody.
They're in there.
They're waiting for you to vote.
And I'm sure that the people on my right, I don't mean the Republican right, but my right right here, I'm sure you're going to vote for those tax cuts because otherwise I don't believe.
The people will ever vote you into office, so I'm doing you a big favor by telling you that.
But I know this group is going to be voting for the tax cuts.
We're all here for tax cuts.
Thank you.
It's a very, very big part of our plan.
I'm loving the chat.
I can't wait to get to your comments.
You guys are hilarious.
A very big part of our plan.
We're seeking permanent income tax cuts all across the board.
and to get urgently needed relief to Americans hit especially hard by inflation.
I'm calling for no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and no tax on Social Security benefits for our great seniors.
Thank you.
I like that.
Thank you.
Start by paying your taxes.
And I also want to make interest payments on car loans tax deductible, but only if the car is made in America.
Oh, come on.
I love Toyotas.
I want a Japanese exception.
I want a Japanese exception.
I will be holding my applause.
And by the way, we're going to have growth in the auto industry like nobody's ever seen.
Plants are opening up all over the place.
Deals are being made.
Never seen.
That's a combination of the election win and tariffs.
It's a beautiful word, isn't it?
That, along with our other policies, will allow our auto industry to absolutely boom.
It's going to boom.
Spoke to the majors today, all three.
The top people, and they're so excited.
In fact, already numerous car companies have announced that they will be building massive automobile plants in America, with Honda just announcing a new plant in Indiana, one of the largest anywhere in the world.
The problem with American cars is that they don't run as well as foreign cars.
I bought one last year.
It's been in the shop forever.
The President: Great victory on November 5th, a date which will hopefully go down as one of the most important in the history of our country.
In addition, as part of our tax cuts, we want to cut taxes on domestic production and all manufacturing.
And just as we did before, we will provide 100% expensing.
It will be retroactive to January 20th, 2025. And it was one of the main reasons why our tax cuts were so successful in our first term, giving us the most successful economy in the history of our country.
First term.
We had a great first term.
People are gang-gang Toyota in the chat.
I'm glad to see that.
If you don't make your product in America, however, under the Trump administration, you will pay a tariff, and in some cases, a rather large one.
Other countries have used tariffs against us for decades, and now it's our turn to start using them against those other countries.
On average, the European Union, China, Brazil, India, Mexico, and Canada.
Have you heard of them?
And countless other nations charge us tremendously higher tariffs than we charge them.
It's very unfair.
India charges us auto tariffs higher than 100%.
China's average tariff on our products is twice what we charge them.
And South Korea's average tariff is four times higher.
Think of that four times higher.
And we give so much help militarily and in so many other ways to South Korea.
But that's what happens.
This is happening by friend and foe.
This system is not fair to the United States and never was.
And so on April 2nd, I wanted to make it April 1st, but I didn't want to be accused of April Fool's Day.
That's not...
Just one day would cost us a lot of money.
But we're going to do it in April.
I'm a very superstitious person.
April 2nd, reciprocal tariffs kick in.
And whatever they tariff us, other countries, we will tariff them.
That's reciprocal, back and forth.
Whatever they tax us, we will tariff them.
Seems fair.
It's perfectly fair.
I don't understand why the Dems can't clap to that.
Okay, well, we got some.
It's like just basic, yeah.
To keep us out of their market, then we will do non-monetary barriers to keep them out of our market.
There's a lot of that, too.
They don't even allow us in their market.
We will take in trillions and trillions of dollars and create jobs like we have never seen before.
I did it with China, and I did it with others, and the Biden administration couldn't do anything about it because there was so much money they couldn't do anything about it.
We have been ripped off for decades by nearly every country on Earth, and we will not let that happen any longer.
I dig it.
I dig it.
The tariff thing makes sense.
Nothing here to be disappointed in.
Much has been said over the last...
Three months about Mexico and Canada.
But we have very large deficits with both of them.
But even more importantly, they've allowed fentanyl to come into our country at levels never seen before, killing hundreds of thousands of our citizens and many very young, beautiful people destroying families.
Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
They are, in effect, receiving subsidies of hundreds of billions of dollars.
We pay subsidies to Canada.
And to Mexico of hundreds of billions of dollars.
And the United States will not be doing that any longer.
We're not going to do it any longer.
Thanks to our America First policies we're putting into place, we have had $1.7 trillion of new investment in America in just the past few weeks.
The combination of the election...
And our economic policies that people of SoftBank, one of the most brilliant anywhere in the world, announced a $200 billion investment.
OpenAI and Oracle, Larry Ellison, announced $500 billion investment, which they wouldn't have done if Kamala had won.
Apple announced $500 billion investment.
Called me.
He said, I cannot spend it fast enough.
It's going to be much higher than that, I believe.
They'll be building their plants here instead of in China.
Yeah, but Apple's such a scam now.
And just yesterday, Taiwan, semiconductor, the biggest in the world, most powerful in the world, has a tremendous amount, 97% of the market, announced a $165 billion investment to build the most powerful chips on Earth right here in the USA. We're not
giving them any money.
Your CHIPS Act is a horrible, horrible thing.
We give hundreds of billions of dollars, and it doesn't mean a thing.
They take our money and they don't spend it.
Chat is calling Apple Crapple.
To them, we're giving them no money.
You guys are so mature.
All that was important to them was they didn't want to pay the tariffs, so they came and they're building, and many other companies are coming.
Crapple.
We have to give them money.
We just want to protect our businesses and our people.
And they will come because they won't have to pay tariffs if they build in America.
So it's very amazing.
You should get rid of the CHIP Act.
And whatever's left over, Mr. Speaker, you should use it to reduce debt.
or any other reason you want to.
Our new trade policy will also be great for the American farmer.
I love the farmer.
Who will now be selling into our home market, the USA, because nobody is going to be able to compete with you.
Because those goods that come in from other countries and companies, they're really, really in a bad position in so many different ways.
Uninspected.
They may be very dirty and disgusting, and they come in and they pour in, and they hurt our American farmers.
The tariffs will go on agricultural product coming into America, and our farmers starting on April 2nd.
It may be a little bit of an adjustment period.
We had that before when I made the deal with China.
$50 billion of purchases, and I said, just bear with me.
And they did.
They did.
Probably have to bear with me.
Yeah, but Thomas Massey should have been the agricultural secretary.
The problem with it was that Biden didn't enforce it.
He didn't enforce it.
$50 billion of purchases.
And we were doing great, but Biden did not enforce it.
And it hurt our farmers.
But our farmers are going to have a field day right now.
So to our farmers, have a lot of fun.
I love you, too.
No one said I love you.
I love that.
I love you, too.
I love you, too.
And I have also imposed a 25% tariff on foreign aluminum, copper, lumber, and steel because if we don't have, as an example, steel and lots of other things, we don't have a military and, frankly, we just won't have a country very long.
Here today is a proud American steelworker, fantastic person from Decatur, Alabama, Jeff Denard.
Has been working at the same steel plant for 27 years in a job that has allowed him to serve as the captain of his local volunteer fire department, raise seven children with his beautiful wife, Nicole, and over the years provide a loving home for more than 40 foster children.
So great, Jeff.
Thank you, Jeff.
Thank you, Jeff.
Stories like Jeff's remind us that tariffs are not just about protecting American jobs.
They're about protecting the soul of our country.
Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again.
And it's happening, and it will happen rather quickly.
There'll be a little disturbance.
We're okay with that.
It won't be much.
No, you're not.
And look where Biden took us.
Very low.
The lowest we've ever been.
Jeff, I want to thank you very much.
And I also want to recognize another person who has devoted herself to foster care community.
She worked so hard on it.
A very loving person.
our magnificent First Lady of the United States.
Woo!
I just love her forever.
She's going to need a restraining order on me.
I'm not going to lie.
If she sends one, I deserve it.
Melania's work has yielded incredible results, helping prepare our nation's future leaders as they enter the workforce.
Our First Lady is joined by two impressive young women, very impressive.
Haley Ferguson, who benefited from the First Lady's Fostering the Future initiative.
And is poised to complete her education and become a teacher.
And Elliston Berry, who became a victim of an illicit deepfake image produced by a peer.
Gosh, it's horrible.
With Elliston's help, the Senate just passed the Take It Down Act.
And this is so important.
Thank you very much, John.
John Thune.
Thank you.
Stand up, John.
The stuff we didn't have to contend with in high school, you know?
Just people being able to create, like, AI images of you nude and passing it around is terrible.
Thank you all very much.
Trump looks great, by the way.
Thank you.
And thank you to John Thune and the Senate.
Great job.
To criminalize the publication of such images online is a terrible, terrible thing.
And once it passes the House, I look forward to signing that bill.
Into law.
Thank you.
And I'm going to use that bill for myself, too, if you don't mind.
Because nobody gets treated worse than I do online.
Nobody.
That's great.
Thank you very much to the Senate.
Thank you.
But if we truly care about protecting Americans' children, no step is more crucial than securing America's borders.
Over the past four years, 21 million people poured into the United States.
Many of them were murderers.
Human traffickers, gang members and other criminals from the streets of dangerous cities all throughout the world.
Because of Joe Biden's insane and very dangerous open border policies, they are now strongly embedded in our country.
but we are getting them out and getting them out fast.
And I want to thank Tom Homan and Christelle.
I want to thank you and Paul of Border Patrol.
I want to thank you.
What a job they've all done, everybody.
Border Patrol, ICE. Law enforcement in general is incredible.
We have to take care of our law enforcement.
after last year -- A brilliant 22-year-old nursing student named Lakin Riley, the best in her class, admired by everybody, went out for a jog on the campus of the University of Georgia.
That morning, Lakin was viciously attacked, assaulted, beaten, brutalized, and horrifically murdered.
Lakin was stolen from us by a savage illegal alien gang member.
Who was arrested while trespassing across Biden's open southern border and then set loose into the United States under the heartless policies of that failed administration.
It was indeed a failed administration.
He had then been arrested and released in a Democrat-run sanctuary city, a disaster, before ending the life of this beautiful young angel.
With us this evening are Lakin's beloved mother, Allison, and her sister, Lauren.
Thank you.
Again, clapping for that, at the very least.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
Last year, I told Lakin's grieving parents that we would ensure their daughter would not have died in vain.
That's why the very first bill I signed into law as your 47th president mandates the detention of all dangerous criminal aliens who threaten public safety.
It's a very strong, powerful act.
It's called the Lakin-Riley Act.
So Allison and Lauren, America will never, ever forget our beautiful Laken-Hope-Riley.
I think I hear bipartisan support for that, so that's great.
I do saw that I have to look for that.
Oh, look, full...
Oh, no, they're not standing.
That's just the Republican side, I think.
They're not showing the Democrat side.
They might be standing, too.
Thank you very much.
Since taking office, my administration has launched the most sweeping border and immigration crackdown in American history, and we quickly achieved the lowest numbers of illegal border crossers ever recorded.
Thank you.
Adios, amigos.
Adios.
The media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation We must have legislation to secure the border.
But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president.
That was like a...
That was a very exciting cheer.
Oh, wow.
Do you see her purple hair?
Joe Biden didn't just open our borders.
He flew illegal aliens over them to overwhelm our schools, hospitals, and communities throughout the country.
Entire towns like Aurora, Colorado, and Springfield, Ohio, buckled under the weight of the migrant occupation and corruption like nobody's ever seen before.
Beautiful towns destroyed.
Now, just as I promised in my inaugural address, we are achieving the great liberation of America.
But there still is much work to be done.
Here tonight is a woman I have gotten to know, Alexis Nengarry from Houston.
Wonderful woman.
Last June, Alexis' 12-year-old daughter, her precious Jocelyn, walked to a nearby convenience store.
She was kidnapped, tied up, assaulted for two hours under a bridge and horrifically murdered.
Arrested and charged with this heinous crime are two illegal alien monsters from Venezuela, released into America by the last administration through their ridiculous open border.
The death of this beautiful 12-year-old girl and the agony of her mother and family touched our entire nation greatly.
Alexis, I promised that we would always remember your daughter, your magnificent daughter.
And earlier tonight, I signed an order keeping my word to you.
One thing I have learned about Jocelyn is that she loved animals so much.
She loved nature.
Across Galveston Bay from where Jocelyn lived in Houston, you'll find a magnificent national wildlife refuge.
A pristine, peaceful, 34,000-acre sanctuary for all of God's creatures on the edge of the Gulf of America.
Alexis, moments ago, I formally renamed that refuge.
Gosh, Alexis' emotion right now is making me sound like I just see her pain.
Beautiful daughter, Jocelyn.
So, Mr. Vice President, if you would, may I have the order?
Good.
Is that like...
Am I very pregnant?
Or is everybody about to cry looking at her face?
I was at the end of tears.
It's just unimaginable.
At the end of the day, what Trump is obviously doing is such a kind gesture, but nothing will bring her daughter back.
It's just so sad.
My daughter should be alive.
Thank you very much.
All three savages charged with Jocelyn and Lakin's murders were members of the Venezuelan prison gang, the toughest gang they say in the world, known as Trendy Aragua.
Two weeks ago, I officially designated this gang along with MS-13 and the bloodthirsty Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
It just looks like he's just...
I wouldn't play with him at the border, I would.
I'm just saying.
Category as ISIS, and that's not good for them.
Countless thousands of these terrorists were welcomed into the U.S. by the Biden administration.
But now every last one will be rounded up and forcibly removed from our country, or, if they're too dangerous, put in jails, standing trial in this country, because we don't want them to come back ever.
With us this evening is a warrior on the front lines of that battle.
Border Patrol agent, Roberto Ortiz.
Great guy.
Roberto.
Their job is so hard, man.
You guys, I mean, if you haven't visited the border, it's insane.
It's just insane what they have to do.
And they're dealing with, like, very, you know, they're just dealing with criminals.
So it's just, they really do put their lives on the line.
So much respect for them.
In January, Roberto and another agent were patrolling by the Rio Grande near an area known as Cartel Island.
Doesn't sound too nice to me.
When heavily armed gunmen started shooting at them, Roberto saw that his partner was totally exposed at great danger and he leapt into action, returning fire and providing crucial seconds for his fellow agent to Seek safety, and just barely.
I have some of the prints of that event, and it was not good.
Agent Ortiz, we salute you for your great courage and for your line of fire that you took and for the bravery that you showed.
We honor you, and we will always honor you.
Thank you, Roberto, very much.
That's amazing.
Alania, Roberto, Alexis.
This is a good lineup.
Thank you, Roberta.
And I actually got to know him on my many calls to the border.
He's a great, great gentleman.
The territory to the immediate south of our border is now dominated entirely by criminal cartels that murder, rape, torture and exercise total control.
They have total control over a whole nation, posing a grave threat to our national security.
The cartels are waging war on America, and it's time for America to wage war on the cartels, which we are doing.
Five nights ago, Mexican authorities, because of our tariff policies being imposed on because of our tariff policies being imposed on them, handed over to us 29 of the biggest cartel leaders in their country.
That has never happened before.
They want to make us happy.
First time ever.
But we need Mexico and Canada.
To do much more than they've done, and they have to stop the fentanyl and drugs pouring into the USA. They're going to stop it.
I have sent Congress a detailed funding request laying out exactly how we will eliminate these threats to protect our homeland and complete the largest deportation operation in American history, larger even than Current record holder, President Dwight D. Eisenhower, a moderate man, but someone who believed very strongly in borders.
Americans expect Congress to send me this funding without delay so I can sign it into law.
So, Mr. Speaker, John Thune, both of you, I hope you're going to be able to do that, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you.
Mr. Leader, thank you.
Thank you very much.
And let's get it to me.
I'll sign it so fast you won't even believe it.
All right, Trump.
Ten more minutes.
You're past everybody's bedtime now.
Namely mine.
And as we reclaim our sovereignty, we must also bring back law and order to our cities and towns.
In recent years, our justice system has been turned upside down by radical left lunatics.
Many jurisdictions virtually seized enforcing the law against dangerous repeat offenders while weaponizing law enforcement against political opponents like me.
Unexpectedly hilarious.
I'm gonna need that as a gift.
Please.
To restore fair, equal, and impartial justice under the constitutional rule of law, starting at the FBI and the DOJ. Pam, good luck.
He's just being himself.
He's not even trying to be funny.
Good luck.
Pam Bond.
Pam, we need the Epstein files, girl.
He's going to do a great job.
Cash, thank you.
Thank you, Cash.
We're with you, but we need them.
I've seen files, man.
We need them, okay?
Otherwise, you're all a bunch of lunatics.
They've already started very strong.
They're going to do a fantastic job.
You're going to be very proud of them.
We're also once again giving our police officers the support, protection, and respect they so dearly deserve.
They have to get it.
They have such a hard, dangerous job, but we're going to make it less dangerous.
The problem is the bad guys don't respect the law, but they're starting to respect it, and they soon will respect it.
This also includes our great fire departments throughout the country.
Our firemen and women are unbelievable people, and I will never forget them.
And besides that, they voted for me in record numbers.
Skyler, while he's rapping, can you also look up, I just feel like today I saw there was something else that Pam Bondi was delaying the release of.
This month, 31-year-old New York police officer Jonathan Diller, unbelievably wonderful person and a great officer, was gunned down at a traffic stop on Long Island.
I went to his funeral.
The vicious criminal charged with his murder had 21 prior arrests, and they were rough arrests.
He was a real bad one.
The thug in the seat next to him...
Had 14 prior arrests and went by the name of Killer.
He was Killer.
He killed other people, they say, a lot of them.
I attended Officer Diller's service, and when I met his wife and one-year-old son, Ryan, it was very inspirational, actually.
His widow's name is Stephanie, and she is here tonight.
Stephanie, thank you very much, Stephanie.
Thank you very much.
Stephanie, we're going to make sure that Ryan knows his dad was a true hero. we're going to make sure that Ryan knows his dad And we're going to get these cold-blooded killers and repeat offenders off our streets, and we're going to do it fast.
Got to stop it.
They get out with 28 arrests.
They push people into subway trains.
They hit people over the head, back of the head with baseball bats.
We got to get them out of here.
I've already signed an executive order requiring a mandatory death penalty for anyone who murders a police officer.
And tonight I'm asking Congress to pass that policy into permanent law.
Yeah, I'm going to have that.
Oh, thank you.
People think it's a watermelon for Palestine.
For a new crime bill getting tough on repeat offenders.
It's the best flavor.
Enhancing protections for America's police officers so they can do their jobs without fear of their lives being totally destroyed.
They don't want to be killed.
We're not going to let them be killed.
Joining us in the gallery tonight is a young man.
Who truly loves our police.
His name is DJ Daniel.
He is 13 years old, and he has always dreamed of becoming a police officer.
Uh-oh.
He looks serious, too.
Charity is not the best one.
Water bottle is better.
Do your thanks.
But in 2018, DJ was diagnosed with brain cancer.
The doctors gave him five months at most to live.
That was more than six years ago. - - Amazing. - - I wish you knew people were still alive.
You know what I mean?
Since that time, DJ and his dad have been on a quest to make...
His dream come true, and DJ has been sworn in as an honorary law enforcement officer actually a number of times.
The police love him.
The police departments love him.
And tonight, DJ, we're going to do you the biggest honor of them all.
I am asking our new Secret Service director, Sean Curran, to officially make you an agent of the United States Secret Service.
Best reaction.
His eyes.
Using the sequence service.
I trust him.
I trust this guy.
Put him in the DOJ. Wow.
Oh, so sweet.
That was actually heartwarming.
That hug was so heartwarming.
Don't abuse the power.
That was sweet.
Thank you, DJ.
DJ's doctors believe his cancer Wow, the Dems didn't even stand for DJ. Since 1975, rates of child cancer have increased by more than 40%.
Reversing this trend is one of the top priorities for our new presidential commission to make America healthy again, chaired by our new Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. I was with you, QRK, but this recent MMR scam.
We'll talk about it.
We'll talk about it, okay.
With the name Kennedy, you would have thought everybody over here would have been cheering.
How quickly they forget.
Our goal is to get toxins out of our environment, poisons out of our food supply, and keep our children healthy and strong.
As an example, not long ago...
And you can't even believe these numbers.
One in 10,000 children had autism.
One in 10,000.
And now it's one in 36. There's something wrong.
One in 36. Think of that.
So we're going to find out what it is, and there's nobody better than Bobby and all of the people that are working with you.
You have the best to figure out what is going on.
Okay, Bobby?
Good luck.
It's a very important job.
Thank you.
Not putting mercury in my baby's arm.
My kids are un-vaxxed.
I am anti-vaxx.
Thank you.
My administration is also working to protect our children from toxic ideologies in our schools.
A few years ago, January, little John and her husband discovered that their daughter's school had secretly socially transitioned their 13-year-old little girl.
Teachers and administrators conspired to deceive January and her husband while encouraging her daughter to use a new name and pronouns.
They, them pronoun, actually.
All without telling January, who is here tonight and is now a courageous advocate against this form of child abuse.
January.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You can't even send your kids to school anymore.
It's crazy.
Where's her kid?
Thank you.
Stories like this are why shortly after taking office, I signed an executive order banning public schools from indoctrinating our children with transgender ideology.
I also signed an order to cut off all taxpayer funding to any institution that engages in the sexual mutilation of our youth. .
This is crazy that this has to even be done in this country, right?
Like, I mean, that he had to sign an order to do that as opposed to us just not doing that because it's immoral.
...
permanently banning and criminalizing sex changes on children and forever ending the lie that any child is trapped in the wrong body.
This is a big lie.
And our message to every child in America is that you are perfect exactly the way God made you.
Thank you.
Because we're getting wokeness out of our schools and out of our military, and it's already out, and it's out of our society.
We don't want it.
Wokeness is trouble.
Wokeness is bad.
It's gone.
It's gone.
And we feel so much better for it, don't we?
Don't we feel better?
Our service members won't be activists and...
Ideologues, they will be fighters and warriors.
They will fight for our country.
And Pete, congratulations.
Secretary of Defense, congratulations.
I've known Pete for years.
He's a good guy.
He's a solid dude.
He plays people very well behind the scenes.
You guys know, I'll tell you the T. I actually like Pete.
And he's not big into the woke movement, I can tell you.
I know him well.
Just always been so kind.
I am pleased to report that in January, the U.S. Army had its single best recruiting month in 15 years and that all armed services are having among the best recruiting results ever in the history of our services.
What a difference.
And you know, it was just a few months ago, Where the results were exactly the opposite.
We couldn't recruit anywhere.
We couldn't recruit.
Now we're having the best results just about that we've ever had.
What a tremendous turnaround.
It's really a beautiful thing to see.
People love our country again.
It's very simple.
They love our country and they love being in our military again.
So it's a great thing.
And thank you very much.
Thank you so much.
Great job.
Thank you.
We're joined tonight by a young man, Jason Hartley, who knows the weight of that call of duty.
Jason's father, grandfather, and great-grandfather all wore the uniform.
Jason tragically lost his dad, who was also a Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy when he was just a boy, and now he wants to carry on the family legacy of service.
Jason is a senior in high school.
A six-letter varsity athlete, a really good athlete, they say.
a brilliant student with a 4.46, that's good, GPA.
And his greatest dream is to attend the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
And Jason, that's a very big deal getting in.
That's a hard one to get into.
But I'm pleased to inform you that your application has been accepted.
You will soon be joining the Corps of Kidders.
Oh, they're doing college acceptance letters.
Thank you.
Jason, you're going to be on the long gray line, Jason.
As commander-in-chief, my focus is on building the most powerful military of the future.
As a first step, I'm asking Congress to fund a state-of-the-art Golden Dome Missile Defense Shield to protect our homeland, all made in the USA. And Ronald Reagan wanted to do it long ago, but the technology just wasn't there, not even close.
But now we have the technology.
It's incredible, actually.
And other places, they have it.
Israel has it.
Other places have it.
And the United States should have it, too.
Right, Tim?
Right?
They should have it, too.
So I want to thank you.
But it's very important.
This is a very dangerous world.
We should have it.
We want to be protected, and we're going to protect our citizens like never before.
To boost our defense industrial base, we are also going to resurrect the American.
shipbuilding industry, including commercial shipbuilding and military shipbuilding.
And for that purpose, And for that purpose, I am announcing tonight that we will create a new office of shipbuilding in the White House and offer special tax incentives to bring this industry home to America where it belongs.
We used to make so many ships.
We don't make them anymore very much.
But we're going to make them very fast, very soon.
It will have a huge impact.
To further enhance our national security, my administration will be reclaiming the Panama Canal.
and we've already started doing it.
Just today, a large American company announced they are buying both ports Around the Panama Canal and lots of other things having to do with the Panama Canal and a couple of other canals.
The Panama Canal was built by Americans for Americans, not for others.
But others could use it.
But it was built at tremendous cost of American blood and treasure.
38,000 workers died building the Panama Canal.
They died of malaria.
They died of snake bites and mosquitoes.
Not a nice...
Place to work.
They paid them very highly to go there, knowing there was a 25% chance that they would die.
The most expensive project, also, that was ever built in our country's history, if you bring it up to modern-day costs.
It was given away by the Carter administration for $1, but that agreement has been violated very severely.
We didn't give it to China.
We gave it to Panama, and we're taking it back.
I love that.
It's like random and actually the right thing to do.
Who's that?
And we have Marco Rubio in charge.
Good luck, Marco.
Now, we know who to blame if anything goes wrong.
Marco's been amazing, and he's going to do a great job.
Think of it.
He got 100 votes.
You know, he was approved with actually 99, but the 100th was this gentleman, and I feel very certain.
So let's assume he got 100 votes.
And I'm either very, very happy about that or I'm very concerned about it.
But he's already approved.
I mean, he's a great gentleman.
He's respected by everybody, and we appreciate you voting for Marco.
He's going to do a fantastic job.
Thank you.
Thank you.
He's doing a great job.
I'm still upset that he was called little Marco Rubio, but they're going to let bygones be bygones.
And I also have a message tonight for the incredible people of Greenland.
We strongly support your right to determine your own future.
And if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America.
We need Greenland for...
National security and even international security.
And we're working with everybody involved to try and get it.
But we need it really for international world security.
The Caribbean Canal does sound good.
I think we're going to get it.
One way or the other, we're going to get it.
We will keep you safe.
We will make you rich and together.
We will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before.
It's a very small population, but very, very...
Large piece of land and very, very important for military security.
America is once again standing strong against the forces of radical Islamic terrorism.
Three and a half years ago, ISIS terrorists killed 13 American service members and countless others in the Abbey Gate bombing during the disastrous and incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Not that they were withdrawing.
It was the way they withdrew.
Perhaps the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country.
Tonight, I am pleased to announce that we have just apprehended the top terrorist responsible for that atrocity.
And he is right now on his way here to face the swift sword of American justice.
And I want to thank especially the government of Pakistan for helping arrest this monster. - Yeah.
This was a very momentous day for those 13 families, who I actually got to know very well, most of them, whose children were murdered and the many people that were so badly, over 42 people, so badly injured on that fateful day in Afghanistan.
What a horrible day.
Such incompetence was shown.
That when Putin saw what happened, I guess he said, wow, maybe this is my chance.
That's how bad it was.
Should have never happened.
Grossly incompetent people.
I spoke to many of the parents and loved ones, and they're all in our hearts tonight.
I spoke to them on the phone.
We had a big call.
Every one of them called, and everybody was on the line.
They did nothing but cry with happiness.
They were very happy, as happy as you can be under those circumstances.
Their child, brother, sister, son, daughter was killed for no reason whatsoever.
In the Middle East, we're bringing back our hostages from Gaza.
In my first term, we achieved one of the most groundbreaking peace agreements in generations, the Abraham Accords.
And now we're going to build on that foundation to create a more peaceful and prosperous future for the entire region.
A lot of things are happening in the Middle East.
People haven't been talking about that so much lately with everything going on with Ukraine and Russia.
But a lot of things are happening in the Middle East.
It's a rough neighborhood, actually.
I'm also working tirelessly to end the savage conflict in Ukraine.
Millions of Ukrainians and Russians have been needlessly killed.
We're wounded in this horrific and brutal conflict.
With no end in sight, the United States has sent hundreds of billions of dollars to support Ukraine's defense.
With no security, with no anything.
Ukraine and Israel, they both need to be cut off, Mr. President.
OK, those are like the welfare claims.
Do you want to keep it going for another five years?
Tonight?
You would say Pocahontas says yes.
2,000 people are being killed every single week.
More than that.
They're Russian young people.
They're Ukrainian young people.
They're not Americans.
But I want it to stop.
Meanwhile, Europe has sadly spent more money buying Russian oil and gas than they have spent on defending Ukraine, by far.
Think of that.
They've spent more buying Russian oil and gas than they have defending.
And we've spent perhaps $350 billion, like taking candy from a baby.
That's what happened.
And they've spent...
$100 billion.
What a difference that is.
And we have an ocean separating us, and they don't.
But we're getting along very well with them, and lots of good things are happening.
Biden has authorized more money in this fight than Europe has spent by billions and billions of dollars.
It's hard to believe that they wouldn't have stopped it and said, at some point, come on, let's equalize.
You've got to be equal to us.
But that didn't happen.
Elizabeth Warren's having a meltdown.
Earlier today I received an important letter from President Zelensky of Ukraine.
The letter reads, Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible.
Are you going to wear a suit?
To bring lasting peace closer.
Nobody wants peace more than the Ukrainians, he said.
My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump's strong leadership to get a peace that lasts.
We do really value how much America has done to help Ukraine maintain its sovereignty and independence.
Regarding the agreement on minerals and security, Ukraine is ready to sign it at any time that is convenient for you.
I appreciate that he sent this letter.
Just got it a little while ago.
There's no sorry in that.
Simultaneously, we've had serious discussions with Russia.
And have received strong signals that they are ready for peace.
Wouldn't that be beautiful?
Wouldn't that be beautiful?
Well, I mean, the ethnic cleansing of Ukraine is done and the money laundering operation is done.
So that's usually about the time that our politicians start talking peace.
And I'm not putting that on Trump, but like this entire thing was just a show.
It's just ridiculous to pretend it isn't.
Who are they going to move into the Ukrainian region is what the question is now.
It was just the Bolsheviks doing what they do best.
Murdering a bunch of Christians.
It's time to stop this madness.
It's time to halt the killing.
It's time to end this senseless war.
If you want to end wars, you have to talk to both sides.
Nearly four years ago, amid rising tensions, a history teacher named Mark Fogle was detained in Russia and sentenced to 14 years in a penal colony.
Rough stuff.
The previous administration barely lifted her finger to help him.
They knew he was innocent, but they had no idea where to begin.
But last summer I promised his 95-year-old mother, Malphine, that we would bring her boy safely back home.
After 22 days in office, I did just that.
And they are here tonight.
She cannot be 95. Come on.
She looks good.
Look at her skin.
She's like black don't crack, but she's not even black.
Who is this woman?
Drop the products.
Drop the routine.
Malfine.
She looks fantastic.
Brian Mass is a traitor.
To Mark and his great mom, we are delighted to have you safe and sound and with us.
As fate would have it, Mark Fogle was born in a small rural town in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Have you heard of it?
Where his mother has lived for the past 78 years.
I just happened to go there last July 13th for a rally.
That was not pleasant.
And that is where I met his beautiful mom right before I walked onto that stage.
Wow.
And I told her I would not forget what she said about her son.
And I never did, did I? Never forgot.
That's wild.
Less than 10 minutes later, at that same rally, gunfire rang out and a sick and deranged assassin unloaded eight bullets from his sniper's perch into a crowd of many thousands of people.
My life was saved by a fraction of an inch, but some were not so lucky.
Corey Comparator was a firefighter, a veteran, a Christian, a husband, a devoted father and above all, a protector.
When the sound of gunshots pierced, the air was a horrible sound.
Corey knew instantly what it was and what to do.
He threw himself on top of his wife and daughters and shielded them from the bullets with his own body.
Corey was hit really hard.
You know the story from there.
He sacrificed his life to save theirs.
Two others very fine people were also seriously hit.
But thankfully, with the help of two great country doctors, We thought they were gone and they were saved, so those doctors had great talent.
We're joined by Corey's wife, Helen, who was his high school sweetheart, and their two beloved daughters, Allison and Kaylee.
High school sweetheart.
I also, like, think it's crazy that we still have no answers about what happened.
If you ever need to know that the deep state is involved in something, it just goes away in the news and nobody's interested.
The things that we launch investigations on, Trump, what he did 15 years ago, but someone shooting a presidential candidate, a former president, just gets locked down.
We know nothing.
We know nothing about the shooter.
Think about how crazy that is.
He's three beautiful ladies right now, and he is cheering you on.
He loves you.
He is cheering you on.
Cory was taken from us much too soon, but his destiny was to leave us all with a shining example of the selfless devotion of a true American patriot.
It was love like Cory's that built our country, and it's love like Cory's that is going to make our country more majestic than ever before.
I believe that my life was saved that day in Butler for a very good reason.
I was saved by God to make America great again.
again, I believe that.
Thank you.
It's just crazy to think about that.
We know nothing about that shooter.
They just locked it all down.
Who called for Trump to be shot at?
Who could have the power to just, you know, disappear that?
Thank you very much.
From the patriots of Lexington and Concord to the heroes of Gettysburg and Normandy, from the warriors who crossed the Delaware to the trailblazers who climbed the Rockies, and from the legends who soared at Kitty Hawk to the astronauts who touched the moon, Americans have always been the people who defied all arts, transcended.
All dangers made the most extraordinary sacrifices and did whatever it took to defend our children, our country, and our freedom.
And as we have seen in this chamber tonight, that same strength, faith, love, and spirit is still alive and thriving in the hearts of the American people.
Despite the best efforts of those who would try to censor us, silence us, break us, destroy us, Americans are today a proud, free, sovereign, and independent nation that will always be free, and we will fight for it till death.
We will never let anything happen to our beloved country, because we are a country of doers, dreamers, fighters, and survivors.
Our ancestors crossed the vast ocean.
Strowed into the unknown wilderness and carved their fortunes from the rock and soil of a perilous and very dangerous frontier.
They chased our destiny across a boundless continent.
They built the railroads, laid the highways, and graced the world with American marvels like the Empire State Building, the mighty Hoover Dam, and the towering Golden Gate Bridge.
They lit the world with electricity, broke free of the force of gravity, fired up the engines of American industry, vanquished the communists, fascists and Marxists all over the world, and gave us countless modern wonders sculptured out of iron, glass and steel.
We stand on the shoulders of these pioneers who won and built the modern age.
These workers who poured their sweat into the skylines of our cities.
These warriors who shed their blood on fields of battle and gave everything they had for our rights and for our freedom.
Now it is our time to take up the righteous cause of American liberty.
And it is our turn to take America's destiny into our own hands and begin the most thrilling days in the history of our country.
This will be our greatest era.
With God's help over the next four years, we are going to lead this nation even higher, and we are going to forge the freest, most advanced, most dynamic, and most dominant civilization ever to exist on the face of this earth.
We are going to create the highest quality of life, build the safest and wealthiest and healthiest and most vital.
Communities anywhere in the world.
We are going to conquer the vast frontiers of science, and we are going to lead humanity into space and plant the American flag on the planet Mars and even far beyond.
She's trying to set a world record here.
Is this like a Guinness Book of World Record thing?
...of the American spirit.
And we are going to renew unlimited promise of the American dream.
Every single day we will stand up and we will fight, fight, fight for the country our citizens believe in and for the country our people in the world.
I'm trying.
I am trying.
Who did?
Wow, fun fact.
How long did he go?
Wait, but this is longer.
So he broke the record for the longest.
My fellow Americans, get ready for an incredible future because...
The golden age of America has only just begun.
It will be like nothing that has ever been seen before.
Thank you.
God bless you.
And God bless America.
Oh, my gosh.
We did it.
We did it.
Okay.
Okay.
We did it.
My baby is kicking.
I got a lot going on right now, okay?
There's a lot happening here.
I mean, I was going to do a really long recap of everything he said.
But, you know, by that time, you guys are definitely going to want to go to sleep.
Look, the foreign aid thing, I asked him to live fact check, saying that he suspended all foreign aid.
He did freeze.
He did do a U.S. freeze on foreign aid, but it does not apply to weapons support for countries like Israel and Egypt.
So, okay, fair enough.
I think he's talking about dollars.
And they said that he is giving weapons in 2023, the last year for which the full data is available.
Obviously, we know that Ukraine has taken $16.6 billion from us.
The bulk of that went to economic development.
And then it disappeared.
And then second place was Israel.
They received the second highest amount of U.S. assistance, $3.3 billion in 2023, mainly for security.
My thing is, like, even when we say we're not giving it directly to countries, I always wonder if they're finding a way around it.
that like Ukraine randomly took credit for things in Israel and said that they gave them money.
And I'm like, how are you taking money and giving money at the same time?
That means you're taking our money and you're passing it through and our money is being laundered a thousand different ways.
I was kind of keen.
Obviously, this is a speech you're supposed to kind of brag and rah, rah, rah, do your thing.
Trump looks fantastic.
He has a ton of energy, obviously.
I mean, look, for his age, it's unbelievable.
It really is.
I am more tired than Donald Trump.
There's no...
I can't even...
I'm not as tired as Donald Trump, more tired than Donald Trump is.
But I will say that in terms of the things I'd like to hear him address, and this would not have been the right venue for it, obviously there's been a lot of blowback on Pam Bondi since the non-Epstein release Phase 1. Some people were saying it's not fair.
She's dealing with the corruption over in the Southern District of New York who are not releasing the files.
There were some people that had to resign because of that reason.
All of that's fine.
It's just that she made a big stink about it.
Like, she actually went on Fox News and said, we're going to release the files in the first phase, and you're going to see some information.
And then that didn't happen.
And it felt like it was a photo op, even though I understand from Mike Stanovich that it wasn't a photo op, and it just happened to be that cameras were there when they walked out.
But that's going to now, you know, hang over Republicans here.
You said you're going to get it done.
Why are we not able to get it done?
How quickly can we get it done?
And then there is the question of Seth Rich.
Now, I'm going to actually read my producer notes here because I saw that on Twitter and I had forgotten to look into it, but I was hearing that that was going to be another promise, Seth Rich being the DNC staffer who, it was speculated, had something to do with the release of DNC emails.
He winds up dead.
And for whatever reason...
The records regarding his death, suspicious death, have been locked down.
Everyone was called a conspiracy theorist.
Well, there was an attorney who stayed on this named Ty Klavenger.
He had submitted an FOIA request to the Department of Justice and the FBI for records concerning Seth Rich, and he started a thread.
And I think this thread was from today.
The DOJ told me this afternoon that we will not be getting any Seth Rich records on March 10th.
The FBI only intends to produce a Vaughn index, which gives a brief description of what they are withholding and why.
That means that the feds are not even willing to produce the metadata from Seth's electronic devices.
I'm not thrilled about this, but we're playing the long game.
In the same case, I can already prove that the FBI improperly withheld pages from the CrowdStrike reports about the 2016 DNC hack that was published by WikiLeaks, so this probably won't play well with the court.
More importantly, Kash Patel and Pam Bondi will learn about this, and I suspect some heads will roll.
That's long overdue because the FOIA office at the FBI has systematically corrupt the bureaucrats.
Can run, but they can't hide.
So that is something that I've been tremendously interested in.
Again, something that people were called conspiracy theorists for.
Stopped talking about Seth Rich.
Long speculated that he had something to do with the DNC being hacked and the files that were given to WikiLeaks, which allowed us to read some rather odd emails, which led to a lot of scandals.
And some people thought that he was murdered by the state.
And it would make us feel...
Like conspiracy theorists, if you released all the information and we saw that he wasn't, but when you don't release the information, you just call us conspiracy theorists, it just makes us think that you're lying, right?
The JFK files, the Epstein files, and now the Seth Rich files do not make us trust our government.
Our government tends to sit on what they're involved in.
So yeah, there are some questions about...
How much they are doing now that they are in office and that we have power.
And, you know, I think in terms of his speech, his speech is very good.
I think Trump did a good job.
Like I said, his energy is great.
Do we all kind of recognize that there seems to be this never ending Israel exception?
Like it's America first, but like actually it's kind of Israel first.
And so when we say like we're restoring free speech, obviously we're all thinking about the fact that.
Actually, there's a carve-out for Israel, always, for whatever reason.
Even the censorship on campuses.
I'd like to know more about that.
I only saw the tweets that he sent and said, you know, we'll be stopping illegal protesting.
Okay, fine.
Everything illegal should be stopped.
Things that are illegal are already illegal, so why do we need to make them more illegal?
We're making it illegal-er.
What exactly do we mean when we say illegal protesting on college campuses are not going to receive federal funding anymore?
I'd like to read the details because that's when I realized that Ron Asandas was a sellout because he was making special laws for anti-Semitism.
RFK Jr. is talking about making anti-Semitism a health crisis.
So I don't trust the Trump administration thus far on the topic of issue.
I don't trust that they put American values ahead of their concern for this foreign country, which seems to have our nation occupied, because there's always an exception.
And that's just the reality of how I feel.
And I'm taking that back.
So...
Now, by the way, before I read some of your questions and we jump off here because we've been streaming for two hours, I do want to throw it to our last sponsor, which is American Financing.
I know that so many of you work hard to support yourself and your family, but it may seem as though you are taking a step back every month instead of moving forward because when the bills are higher than what you bring in every month, you have to swipe that credit card to cover the difference and the debt keeps adding up.
But if you own a home, my friends in American Financing can help you break free from that cycle.
American Financing is saving people just like you an average of $800 a month.
You can think about what you could do with that extra $800 every month.
And even better, it costs nothing to find out how much you can save.
All it takes is a quick call to American Financing.
And if you start today, you may be able to delay two mortgage payments.
So call American Financing today and start your journey towards being credit card debt-free.
You just call 800-795-1210.
Again, that's 800-795-1210.
Or visit AmericanFinancing.net slash Owens.
That's AmericanFinancing.net slash Owens.
Okay, going to read a few of your...
By the way, Al Green getting taken out for being ghetto.
I had to look up his age.
I think it says he's 77. I'm going to allow it.
He's a cantankerous old man with his cane.
So I'm going to allow it when I get 77. Look how I am pregnant.
You know how I'm going to be when I'm 77?
I'm doing this too.
Actually, I look forward to doing this.
Obviously, I kid.
I wish there was more decorum, but old people and toddlers, man, they just don't know how to act.
What are you going to do?
You know, he's a bit older now.
And so he was just wiling out.
And unfortunately, I wish he had known that we couldn't hear a word that he said.
So it was all for naught, Mr. Al Green.
It was all for naught.
This person writes, I don't usually think women are funny, but Candice, you crack me up.
You're legit.
Keep up the good work.
My husband has a theory on that.
We agree that most women aren't funny.
If I ask men, I'm like, do you guys think women are funny?
They're like, no, women aren't funny.
But then the women that are funny, because there are some, it's usually women that come from the school of hard knocks, women that have seen a few things in their life and they tend to have a good sense of humor.
But if you're a woman that just comes from a lap of luxury or just had an uneventful childhood, then usually you don't have a good sense of humor.
I'm saying way too much right now.
I should hop off air because it's getting...
My producers are probably like, should we just cut the feed?
He's going to say something crazy.
Clips are going to be going viral.
I'm going to be explaining.
It was 11 p.m.
Hair by Janiya writes, embarrassing.
This man deserves respect if you voted for him or not.
WTF? Yes, I agree.
But he's 77, so I'm going to allow it.
Stephanie writes, there's a Toyota plant in Indiana.
Yes, I was loving that there were so many Toyota stands because it's just a good car.
And so I just, I wasn't sure what he was saying.
I thought he was saying we can't have Toyotas anymore.
And apparently we can.
And there was a kind of a problem that the value of American cars is not great.
Like we purchased a Cadillac a couple of years ago.
And I'm telling you that car has spent more time in the shop than it's been outside of it.
It's just a fact.
I'm sorry.
We've been very unhappy with that car, and we should probably sell it.
Intelligent Observer writes, there is nothing united about the United States of America anymore.
Just egotistical babies in the room.
Lives with their fake, we are tolerant ones.
The facade and the billionaire is in charge of us.
Yeah, speaking of the Elon things, you guys, some of you guys are laughing and being like, yeah, Elon fatigue.
I don't know.
I just feel like it's, you know what I mean.
Like, it's Taylor Swift at every football game.
And you just kind of get annoyed after a while.
It's not like saying her music isn't good or you're not going to bop to London Boy.
It's just like, I've seen you too much.
I need a little mystery for a little bit.
I don't want to know this much about him.
I know about his baby mamas.
I'm reading his text messages to the New York Post.
He's got another kid, more kids than I can count.
I just feel like I know him.
And I don't want to know him.
I kind of want to keep the mystery of the billionaire.
I want Doge to just be like a program.
And we just don't know what he's doing, you know, or like he's just like, oh, Elon's working on it.
Like, where's Elon?
Nobody knows.
But he's like moving into the White House.
It's just it feels too personal to me.
I don't I don't I don't want to know him this well.
Is that fair to say?
Like, I just feel like I just he's tweeting every second.
You know, I just I know him too well.
I feel I feel too close to Elon.
And I just I just want him to go on vacation.
That's all I'm saying.
I want him to he deserves it.
He's worked very hard.
And I want Elon Musk to go on vacation.
I have Elon fatigue.
Passerby writes, President Donald Trump, as an Asian Muslim American, I pray for your success.
This is a Christian land, and as a Muslim, I'm just a guest.
Thank you for allowing me to be here.
Thanks to Americans.
What a sweet comment.
This guy, whoever you are, you do well when you're tired at night.
You're like a kind person.
Passerby.
Ben George writes, Matt Walsh wore a tie for this occasion.
I would have liked to see him troll in his Olenski shirt with foamy shoulder pads.
That would have been great.
It was very nice to see Matt Walsh there unexpectedly.
And it would have been great if he was just wearing military fatigues.
That would have been very funny.
Honestly, that would have made sense.
He's very chill.
Still Raven writes, you get them, girl.
Thank you.
Reborn writes, the Tate should be free to travel all around the U.S. I'm a member of TRW. Without them, I would still just be working a nine-to-five, but since I started following them, my life has only improved.
Hashtag free Tate.
Yeah, you know, I mentioned that I had hired someone on my team who learned a lot from Tate's online university, someone who couldn't afford to go to university, and honestly, that person has been amazing.
And so, yeah, I get it.
I get that there are people who've gotten a lot out of their school or whatever they're teaching about, what's it called?
Hustlers University.
I should know more about that, but I do think their content is geared towards men.
And I just think plainly what they're doing in Florida is wrong.
I believe in due process, and so I can't support Ron DeSantis in that effort, irrespective of the many disagreements that I have with the Tate brothers.
Like I said, I'm a Christian.
My job is not to judge people.
When we're talking about the due process and letter of the law, about whether or not I think their actions are Christian.
So, there's that.
Dre Monzi writes, Candice, I really love your honest journalism.
Shot Madark made me a fan forever.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Thank you, guys.
And we've had some great sign-ups to Shot Madark.
You know, we released that MMR episode for free because of the fear-mongering that was going on, which RFK Jr. contributed to.
Wasn't totally shocked about the RFK Jr. thing, to be honest.
Like, he hangs out with Rabbi Shmuley.
I don't know, guys.
Right?
Like, he's, like, scared of Rabbi Shmuley.
He takes pictures.
I'm just like, they got something on him.
Like, everybody objectively acknowledges that Rabbi Shmuley is a mental case, and yet he will do bidding for Rabbi Shmuley.
And so I just, I don't know, I just kind of said, just take what we can with him, but also know that at the end of the day, someone maybe has a little bit dirt on RFK Jr. I don't know, I'm just guessing here, just throwing things at the wall, seeing what sticks.
You know, in conclusion, everything is in fact fake and gay.
And we will probably take tomorrow off because you know what?
I was going to take Friday off, but now I'm thinking tomorrow is a good day because it's Ash Wednesday.
And I'm obviously, I wasn't going to remove that from my forehead anyways.
And so maybe it's just a good day to take off.
Spend a day in prayer.
Pray for this country.
Pray for my homies that are locked down in the struggle.
Pour some out for my fallen homies.
You know what I'm saying?
You have no idea what I'm saying.
I have no idea what I'm saying.
I'm exhausted.
I don't know who my fallen homies are.
Can you guys give me some ideas?
What's the point of being a producer if you can't even tell me, do I have a fallen homie somewhere?
Everybody's falling asleep in their control room.
My fallen homies in the control room.
Okay?
We are really effing tired and we are going to bed and I hope to not see you guys tomorrow.
Love you forever, but we will definitely see you on Thursday.
