From me that was wanted for 23 deaths in Peru. | |
| So Trump should not only do that in Chicago, he should come to New York and clean house here because these sanctuary states are just terrible, Pedro. | ||
| And I don't care how much these Democrats try to polish the turd, it's still a turd. | ||
| They're a horrible, horrible bunch of people. | ||
| And I just can't believe that we're in a shape we are. | ||
| And this is why we need a revolution. | ||
| Okay, the recent statements about Chicago yesterday comes in light of action from federal courts on another matter. | ||
| This is by NBC saying that a federal judge in California ruling yesterday that the Trump administration violated a 19th century law barring the use of soldiers for civilian law enforcement activities when it mobilized 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines in Los Angeles in June. | ||
| Quote, the evidence at trial established that defendants systematically used armed soldiers whose identity was often obscured by protective armor in military vehicles to set up protective perimeters and traffic blockades, engaging in crowd control and otherwise demonstrate a military presence in and around Los Angeles. | ||
| That's U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer in San Francisco said in a 52-page filing. | ||
| He concludes in part by saying, in short, defendants violated the Posse Comitatus Act. | ||

And live now to the White House Oval Office, where President Trump is meeting with the Polish president. | |
| Poland, you did a good job with that, right? | ||
| Gave me a little different pronunciation. | ||
| I said, I want to get it perfect. | ||
| Did I get it right? | ||
| Yeah, good, good. | ||
| And the president's been amazing. | ||
| He had an incredible race. | ||
| He came from behind and he won very handily. | ||
| The people of Poland have taken to him immediately. | ||
| They really love him. | ||
| There's great love and respect. | ||
| He's a very successful man, but he went into a political hatchet, so to speak. | ||
| It was a pretty tough race, pretty nasty race. | ||
| And he beat them all, and he beat them all very easily. | ||
| And now he's become even more popular as they got to know him and know him better. | ||
| He's doing a really fantastic job, so it's an honor to, I also endorsed him, so I'm very proud of that. | ||
| I don't endorse too many people, but I endorsed him, and I was very proud of that. | ||
| The job he's done. | ||
| I want to thank Vince Haley for that recommendation. | ||
| Vince was fantastic, and I appreciate it. | ||
| And I can tell you who really appreciates it, Poland, because they're very happy with their president. | ||
| And I just want to say it's an honor to have you. | ||
| We'll be discussing trade and various other things, the things that you discuss. | ||
| We'll have a few questions from you, and then we'll get on to a discussion. | ||
| Then we'll have lunch, and then he goes and he meets with the Pope. | ||
| And that'll be very exciting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And say hello to the Pope for me. | |
| Thank you very much for that. | ||
| Thank you very much, Mr. President. | ||
| Mr. President, thank you very much. | ||
| And I would like to express my gratitude for your invitation only after one month from my swan in Sworn and from celebration for my inauguration. | ||
| It means that Polish-American relations are very important, very strong. | ||
| I think that we have so strong relations that we have never had. | ||
| And it's very important for me. | ||
| Our relations are based, of course, on the values. | ||
| Thank you very much for your support, for your endorsement during my very hard campaign. | ||
| I remember it, and I'm very grateful for your support. | ||
| It was the fight against others. | ||
| So your support was very important. | ||
| And the support of Polish people, Polish diaspora, in the United States of America, we have almost more than 10 million people here. | ||
| And they voted for Tom. | ||
| They voted for me. | ||
| And in the vast majority, they voted also for me. | ||
| So I would like to say hello to Polish diaspora in the United States of America. | ||
| Those relations for me, for Poland, for Poles are very important with the United States of America and they are based on values independence, sovereignty, democracy. | ||
| And I think, Mr. President, that those values are epitomized by our common heroes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Thank you very much. | ||
| And I hope it will be a very fruitful discussion around the energy, around the economy and military service. | ||
| And the flyover was very much in honor of your great pilot who just passed away recently, who was a legend in Poland. | ||
| You might want to say something about him. | ||
| Yes, of course, it was a terrific accident in Poland. | ||
| Thank you for this gesture that F-35 opened our meeting. | ||
| Mayor Krakovian was one of the best Polish pilots, well-honed Polish pilots, and he died. | ||
| He lost two children. | ||
| So it was a great tragedy. | ||
| He was a legend in Poland, actually. | ||
| He was a legend as a pilot. | ||
| He was an incredible pilot. | ||
| And I think he went to the Air Force Academy, actually. | ||
| But he was a fantastic pilot, and it was a big setback. | ||
| The people of Poland are very, very sad. | ||
| So we thought we'd do that. | ||
| That was the single plane that swooped up. | ||
| And machines, American machines opened our meeting. | ||
| It was great. | ||
| And we are waiting for 32 F-35s in Poland. | ||
| So it also shows that we have great relations according to the best military equipment on the world, American equipment, which build Polish security too. | ||
| Well, Poland, we've had a tremendous relationship. | ||
| I think now it's better than ever because of this relationship. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a little special because we fought together. | |
| But we've always been very good. | ||
| And we have some wonderful people, as you know. | ||
| Duda, my friend, he's a good man and still a big fan of yours, very much so. | ||
| So it's a great honor. | ||
| And we're going to talk about trade. | ||
| We'll talk about some other things. | ||
| We'll take a couple of questions from the media. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Will American soldiers remain in Poland? | |
| Will American soldiers remain in Poland? | ||
| Yeah, I think so. | ||
| I mean, do you know something I don't? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| Yeah, but we're very happy. | ||
| If anything, we'll put more there if they want. | ||
| But they've long wanted to have a larger presence. | ||
| We have some countries that have more, not too many, but no, they'll be staying in Poland. | ||
| We're very much aligned with Poland. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We saw the dramatic picture where we saw the leaders of Russia and North Korea and China together the first time the leaders of those three countries have been together in this sort of show of solidarity. | |
| You said that they're conspiring against the United States. | ||
| What do you think they're conspiring to do? | ||
| And given this, is it reason why you should slap or would consider slapping secondary sanctions on Russia if they're conspiring against the U.S. now? | ||
| Well, I've already done that with regard to India and we're doing it with regard to other things. | ||
| And I put out a truth last night. | ||
| You saw that. | ||
| And I was the one that brought it up. | ||
| I said they're only doing this. | ||
| Really, they're looking to, when they did what they did, I thought it was a beautiful ceremony. | ||
| I thought it was very, very impressive. | ||
| But I understood the reason they were doing it and they were hoping I was watching and I was watching. | ||
| My relationship with all of them is very good. | ||
| We're going to find out how good it is over the next week or two. | ||
| I think that we helped China very much, as you know, when they talk about freedom. | ||
| And I don't believe that, and maybe I'm wrong, I hope I'm wrong, but I don't believe that America, that the United States was acknowledged for helping China to gain its freedom. | ||
| But perhaps that was just a sleight of hand. | ||
| I mean, I was very surprised. | ||
| I watched the speech last night. | ||
| President Xi is a friend of mine, but I thought that the United States should have been mentioned last night during that speech because we helped China very, very much. | ||
|

|
You've expressed many times your frustration and disappointment with Putin, but there's no action since you took your office. | |
| Don't you worry that... | ||
| How do you know there's no action? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Don't you worry. | |
| Wait, wait. | ||
| Who are you with? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Who is police radio? | |
| Okay. | ||
| How do you know there's no action? | ||
| Would you say that putting secondary sanctions on India, the largest purchaser outside of China, they're almost equal, would you say there was no action? | ||
| That costs hundreds of billions of dollars to Russia. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You call that no action? | |
| And I haven't done phase two yet or phase three. | ||
| But when you say there's no action, I think you ought to get yourself a new job. | ||
| Because if you remember, two weeks ago I did, I said, if India buys, India's got big problems, and that's what happened. | ||
| So don't tell me about that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is your message to Putin? | |
| Mr. President, right now, there have been survivors of Jeffrey Epstein speaking at a press conference on Capitol Hill, and they're calling for these case files, these documents to be released. | ||
| And Thomas Massey, who is sponsoring a discharge position to get the House to vote on release of his documents, says he hasn't been here implicated in these files, but many of your friends and donors maybe. | ||
| And he says that's why the Justice Department is redacting them and slow walking the release. | ||
| Is the Justice Department protecting any friends or donors, sir? | ||
| So this is a Democrat hoax that never ends. | ||
| You know, it reminds me a little of the Kennedy situation. | ||
| We gave him everything over and over again, more and more and more, and nobody's ever satisfied. | ||
| From what I understand, I could check, but from what I understand, thousands of pages of documents have been given. | ||
| But it's really a Democrat hoax because they're trying to get people to talk about something that's totally irrelevant to the success that we've had as a nation since I've been president. | ||
| Even if you look at D.C. right now, D.C., it's a totally safe zone. | ||
| It's called a safe zone. | ||
| That's a term. | ||
| It's a term of art. | ||
| It's a safe zone because it's very safe. | ||
| You could walk down the street now and nothing's going to happen. | ||
| No crime, no murders, no nothing, because we had a lot of problems with certain places, and we still do. | ||
| All run by Democrats, or for the most part, run by Democrats. | ||
| So what they're trying to do with the Epstein hoax is get people to talk about that instead of speaking about the tremendous success like ending seven wars. | ||
| I ended seven wars. | ||
| Nobody's going to talk about because they're going to talk about the Epstein, whatever. | ||
| I understand that we were subpoenaed to give files, and I understand we've given thousands of pages of files. | ||
| And I know that no matter what you do, it's going to keep going. | ||
| And I think it's, I think, really, I think it's enough because I think we should talk about the greatness of our country and the success that we're having. | ||
| I think we're probably having, according to what I read, even from two people in this room, we're having the most successful eight months of any president ever. | ||
| And that's what I want to talk about. | ||
| That's what we should be talking about, not the Epstein hoax. | ||
|
unidentified
|
When's going to bring us to president? | |
| I have no message to President Putin. | ||
| He knows where I stand, and he'll make a decision one way or the other. | ||
| Whatever his decision is, we'll either be happy about it or unhappy. | ||
| And if we're unhappy about it, you'll see things happen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| Can you give us a sense of what the U.S. policy or what you're trying to achieve with the aircraft carriers or the boats, I should say, near Venezuela. | ||
| And also the vote that you mentioned yesterday where 11 people were killed. | ||
| What was found on that boat and why were the men killed instead of taking it? | ||
| On the vote, you had massive amounts of drugs. | ||
| We have tapes of them speaking. | ||
| It was massive amounts of drugs coming into our country to kill a lot of people. | ||
| And everybody fully understands that. | ||
| In fact, you see it. | ||
| You see the bags of drugs all over the boat. | ||
| And they were hit. | ||
| Obviously, they won't be doing it again. | ||
| And I think a lot of other people won't be doing it again when they watch that tape. | ||
| They're going to say, let's not do this. | ||
| We have to protect our country, and we're going to. | ||
| Venezuela's been a very bad actor. | ||
| They've been, as you know, they've been sending millions of people into our country, many of them trendua, some of the worst gangs, some of the worst people anywhere in the world in terms of gangs. | ||
| And we had some in Washington, D.C. | ||
| We took care of them very quickly, but they're out of here. | ||
| They've gone. | ||
| But Venezuela has been very bad both in terms of drugs and sending some of the worst criminals anywhere in the world into our country. | ||
| They emptied out, you don't know this, but they emptied out their prisons in Venezuela and they emptied them out into the United States of America. | ||
| And that's part of the problem we have. | ||
| We're getting them out. | ||
| We're getting them out rapidly, but it's caused a tremendous problem. | ||
| And Pete and all of the people that are working very hard to rectify the stupidity of the Biden administration, allowing these people to pour into our country with open borders. | ||
| We are paying a big price as a country for the incompetence of the Biden administration. | ||
| But think of it. | ||
| Opened up prisons, drug dealers, drug lords, everything coming out of Venezuela, they said, and we said, we're not going to put up with it anymore. | ||
| So Venezuela has been one of the worst actors in the whole group, and we have a group of pretty bad actors. | ||
|

|
Are you wanting to force the car out? | |
| Yeah, thank you, Mr. President. | ||
| At the end of this month, the government or Congress has to pass a budget. | ||
| Do you think we can avoid a government shutdown? | ||
| Yeah, I do. | ||
| I think the Republicans will vote for an extension. | ||
| We won't have any Democrat votes. | ||
| We could give the greatest budget ever. | ||
| A tax cut of 50%, everybody taken care of, perfect for women, perfect for men, perfect for minorities, perfect for everything, and we wouldn't get one vote for the Democrats because they've lost their mind. | ||
| They are so deranged. | ||
| They have Trump derangement syndrome. | ||
| And I don't want to burden the Republican Party with it, but they really are. | ||
| They've become almost sick. | ||
| You know, they actually think there is a disease. | ||
| It's called Trump derangement syndrome. | ||
| They've got it. | ||
| No matter what we did, no matter how good, you could give them everything that they've ever dreamed of, and you wouldn't get one vote. | ||
| These are sick people, and I think we're going to have a tremendous midterm. | ||
| We just approved the largest tax decrease in the history of our country. | ||
| We have things when you think of it. | ||
| No tax on tips, no tax on Social Security for our seniors, no tax on overtime, deductions when you buy a car and you borrow money to buy a car. | ||
| First time they've ever seen anything like this, middle-income people get deductions. | ||
| You get a deduction when you buy a car. | ||
| Nobody's ever seen it. | ||
| And by the way, they're selling cars like crazy. | ||
| Cars are pouring back because of the fact that we have tariffs. | ||
| Cars are pouring back into our car plants, are pouring back into our nation. | ||
| They're coming from all over the world. | ||
| They're coming back. | ||
| You know, we lost about 54% of automobile manufacturing over a 30-year period, 35-year period. | ||
| They're all coming back. | ||
| I think they're coming back higher than ever before. | ||
| We have AI going up. | ||
| What we've done is amazing, and what we've passed is amazing. | ||
| But the Democrats, I don't believe, will get one vote. | ||
| It's very anti-crime. | ||
| We want anti-crime. | ||
| They're in favor of crime. | ||
| We're against crime. | ||
| You know, they gave us things like men playing in women's sports, open borders for everybody, transgender for everybody. | ||
| I mean, they want a transgender for all of the crazy things that they were saying. | ||
| And, you know, people would say there are 80-20 issues. | ||
| I say there were 97 to 3. | ||
| I would say 97 to 1. | ||
| Nobody knows who the three are. | ||
| This is the best issue of all. | ||
| They are against preventing crime. | ||
| They are fighting us. | ||
| I want to go into Chicago, and I have this incompetent governor that doesn't want us. | ||
| Do you know that this weekend, 72 people were shot in Chicago? | ||
| I'm embarrassed to say it in front of the president of Poland. | ||
| 11 people were killed. | ||
| 72 people were shot. | ||
| Last week, seven people were killed in Chicago, a place which is probably your number one place. | ||
| I hate to say it. | ||
| But we've got to keep it safe. | ||
| But seven people were killed. | ||
| The week before that, five people were killed, and 21 people were shot. | ||
| This is in three weeks. | ||
| So in three weeks, they lost almost 35 people were killed. | ||
| It could have been stopped. | ||
| If you look at Washington, D.C. three weeks ago, it was the same or worse. | ||
| And now it's considered a totally safe zone. | ||
| Restaurants are open. | ||
| They're bustling. | ||
| Restaurants. | ||
| You have to see. | ||
| Restaurants were dying. | ||
| Nobody wanted to go out. | ||
| They didn't want to be attacked. | ||
| They didn't want to be mugged. | ||
| They didn't want to be attacked even in the restaurant. | ||
| And you take a look at what's happened. | ||
| Friends of mine that haven't gone to a restaurant in four years, one of them went out five times in the last two weeks to a restaurant with his family. | ||
| They feel totally safe. | ||
| Washington, D.C. is a totally safe city. | ||
| You're not reporting any crime because there is none. | ||
| They said crime is down 80%. | ||
