Killed through bullets that went through stained glass windows.
And they know they're very focused on the guns, and they asked me to work on it.
But I also know from the work I've done on, as a former prosecutor, on violence on fentanyl and drugs, on porn and some of the things we're seeing online, that there is a better way here.
And that these companies that are the biggest companies the world has ever seen seem to resist any kind of rules put in place because that's how they were when they got started in a garage.
And right now, the fact that you have liability for a snowmobile manufacturer out of Minnesota, or you have liability if a washing machine.

We're going to break away here and bring you coverage of President Trump signing new executive orders at the White House.
As you know, we passed the continuing resolution in the Republican House today.
It was an amazing vote, actually.
It said we want to keep things going and going properly.
It was good for a lot of reasons.
The Republicans want to keep government open.
But in the Senate, we have 53 Republicans total.
And we need 60 votes.
That means we need Democrat vance.
I want to thank Senator John Solomon, who wants to keep the country open.
He does it so well as a country again.
And probably better than ever before.
If you look at the stock market and other indicators, we have tremendous investment coming in, record investment coming in.
Everything's going well, but the Democrats are unhappy about that because they don't want it to go well.
I think they actually dislike our country greatly.
So they want to shut down the country.
They want to have open borders.
They want to stop the fighting of crime where we've been very successful.
The D.C., as you know, Washington, D.C., is a hot place right now.
Everyone's having dinners.
They're going out all over.
There's very little time.
They haven't seen numbers like this in many, many years.
And other places, as you know, we're going into Methodists will soon be going into Chicago.
We've already had people out there and in the NFPI's been there and get the numbers down, but we'll be bringing them down a whole lot.
But I guess they want crime, and we fight crime, and it's a pretty big difference.
They want to have men play in women's sports.
They want transgender for everybody.
And if they don't get everything that they want, all these things that they want that are proven so badly, they want to close our government down.
We're not going to let have things happen to our country.
We're not going to approve things that we shouldn't be approving.
Just today, the House Democrats voted against condemning the political assassination of Charlie Clark.
Who could vote against that?
They could condemn the owner saying, please condemn the assassination of a human being.
And they said, no, no, we're not going to do that.
Remember this, we had an election brief a very short time ago.
Republicans won presidential.
We won the popular vote by a lot.
We won all seven swing states.
We won the Electoral College by a lot.
We won most U.S. counties in a total landslide.
So we won most.
It's a very big statistic.
We won the counties in a number that I don't believe has been hit before, 2,600 counties versus 525 counties for the Democrats.
So the Democrats really should start respecting what takes place at the voter booth.
In many cases, it's now a voter bootstrap mail-in voting, which is a very corrupt situation.
But despite that, we're won in a landslide.
And we have to remember when you win the election, elections have consequences.
So we'll continue to talk to the Democrats, but I think we could very well end up with a closed country for a period of time.
That means the Democrats have to vote in the Senate.
And I don't think they will be voting.
Now, what we are doing, we're really here today to talk about something else, which is the gold cart, which is going to bring a lot of money into our country, which is going to reduce taxes and lots of other good things.
But we'll save that for a little bit later.
Why don't we do this first?
And then we'll talk about the gold card.
Any questions?
Mr. President, I had a great call with President Xi, and as you know, he approved the TikTok deal.
And we're in the process.
We have some great investors, some of the biggest in the world, American investors, great people.
And we look forward to getting that deal closed.
unidentified
Is it fully approved that Chinese Statements didn't necessarily appear?
When you say fully approved, I don't know what that means.
We have to get it signed.
I guess there could be a formality.
I found his word to be very good.
President Xi and I had a long talk.
We talked for almost two hours.
And it started at 8 o'clock in the morning.
And I think it was a very good talk.
We talked about trade.
We talked about war.
We talked about a lot of things.
We talked about Russia-Ukraine, obviously, and Gaza.
Talked about a lot of subjects.
It was a long call.
It was a good call.
We have a very good relationship.
But the TikTok deal is well on its way, as you know, and the investors are getting ready.
And I think China wanted to see it stay open, too.
They wanted to see it.
And I can tell you the young people in our country wanted to see it stay open very badly because, and if you take a look at my numbers, no Republican has ever done anything like we got massive numbers of youth vote.
And by the way, helped very much by Charlie Kirk.
So Charlie was very much in favor of TikTok.
He liked TikTok.
And he said, you know, you should use it.
And other people said that too.
And I used it.
And I don't know if I have the all, I think I set records.
I looked at numbers that are phenomenal.
We'll pass them out to you.
And it had probably a pretty big effect on the election because we won the election by a lot.
So we are at a situation where in a little while, meaning a number of days, we'll probably, I don't know if you can make a deal with these people.
I think these people are crazy.
You know, again, anybody who wants open borders and don't want to fight, they don't want to fight crime.
They hate to fight crime.
And in Chicago, last weekend you had 11 people killed, murdered, and you had 28 shot.
And those numbers have been pretty consistent all throughout a period of time, whether it was four people, five people, six people, 11 people, 12 people killed, murdered.
And they don't want to spend money to fight crime.
And it's not even much money, relatively speaking.
It's very little.
But we're going there anyway.
It doesn't make any difference.
We're going to Chicago.
We're going to Memphis next.
And we're going to clean up the crime in the cities because we have to do that.
unidentified
Okay?
Dr. TikTok.
With this deal today, are you confident that the CCP won't be exerting control?
At the same time, when you have networks that where I won an election, like in counties, I guess it's 2,600 to 525.
That's called landslide times 2.
When you have that kind of level of popularity or voter support, as I did in the last election, and yet 97 and 94%, different numbers, you see different numbers with different stats, but 97, 94, 95, 96% of the people are against me in the sense of the newscasts are against me.
The stories are 90%, they said 97% bad.
So they gave me 97%.
They'll take a great story and they'll make it bad.
See, I think that's really illegal, personally.
You can't have a free airwave.
You're getting free airwaves from the United States government.
And you can't have that and say, and somebody that just won an election, and I had to go through this during the election, I think it's a miracle that I can win when 97% of the stories on the networks are bad, or whatever it may be, whether it's 89, doesn't matter.
It's a tremendous number.
You know it, you report it all the time, and it changes.
But when you have that kind of a negative reporting, fake negative reporting, when they take a great story and they make it into a bad story constantly, that's what they do.
Look, 60 Minutes took Kamala's answer and they threw it out and they gave her a different answer so that she sounded competent.
When things like that happen, George Slapadopoulos from your network, right?
George Slapadopoulos had to pay $16 million to me because of what he said.
And that's ABC.
You had to pay more than that.
Your network had to pay more than that.
So I think it's very sad.
But I think that reporting has to be at least accurate, at least accurate to an extent.
Again, when somebody is given 97% of the stories are bad about a person, that's no longer free speech.
It's no longer anything.
That's just cheating.
And they cheat.
And they become really members of the Democrat National Committee.
That's what they are, the networks, in my opinion.
They're just offshoots of the Democrat National Committee.
unidentified
Mr. President.
Mr. President, thank you.
Liam Conscript with Zero Hedge.
People are still anticipating who your pick for National Security Advisor will be.
They're worried Marco Rubio is a little overworked.
And one of the reported frontrunners is Michael Anton from the State Department.
He's just authored the National Security Strategy.
They had much less than a trillion, but they had less than a trillion for four years.
I have $17 trillion for eight months.
Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
And I think they're looking at that and they're saying when those plants open right now, they're being built, a lot of them, and some are starting over the next year.
It takes a while, but we're getting fast permits.
And when those plants get built, I don't think there'll be anything like what we're going to experience.
unidentified
Mr. President, if I can, on the tough subject of free speech, Ted Cruz compared Brendan Carr to a mob boss, the way he's threatening television stations and saying it's absolutely dangerous for the government to determine which speech is okay and which is not.
I think Brendan Carr is an incredible American patriot with courage.
You know, it used to be, I remember in the old days that networks would have to get licensed, relicensed, and it was always a big deal.
You know, they had to show honesty and integrity.
When you have a network, again, I'll use the same numbers, whether it's 90 or 94 and 97, all different numbers, but when you have networks that give somebody 97% bad publicity or 94% bad publicity, I think that's dishonesty.
And, you know, they're getting free airwaves, right?
I think Brendan Carr doesn't like to see the airwaves be used illegally and incorrectly and purposely horribly.
Doesn't like to see a person that won the election in a landslide get 97% bad publicity before the election.
I mean, it's amazing that I won the election with that.
But here's what happened.
The people have given your networks no credibility.
They don't give them any credibility, John.
If they did, they wouldn't vote for me.
They wouldn't have voted for me.
When you look at, I mean, you could also say the liberal media, the liberal left, when you look at these stories and papers, but we're not talking about that.
We're talking about, I assume you're talking mostly about the networks, but they have a licensing procedure, and you can read it as well.
They have to show honesty and integrity.
And when they take a good, well, I think the people decide, that's why I'm president.
When they take a great success, like you often do, and you make it into like it's a loser, or you put a negative spin on it, I don't think that's right.
So I think Brendan Carr is a great American patriot.
We have a long time to go before I get up and speak at the UN because every day is a long time when it comes to Gaza, when it comes to Israel and the Middle East.
So we have a long time to go.
But you know a lot of my opinions.
And remember this, you can't forget October 7th either.
People are forgetting October 7th.
They forget it too quickly.
That was one of the worst days in world history.
It was the most evil attack that I think you could really say babies were involved, little babies were involved, and having their heads chopped off and all of the things that took place.
It looks to me like she's very guilty of something, but I really don't know.
I know that the U.S. Attorney from the Eastern District or from that district in Virginia, that he was approved by two Democrat senators who, in my opinion, are among the worst.
And when I learned that two senators, Democrats, because as you know, it's very hard with the blue slip, it's very hard for a Republican to get somebody approved if you have one senator that's a Democrat because of an old custom.
It's not a law, it's a custom.
It's a ridiculous custom.
But if you have a Democrat senator, you have to get that senator to approve.
Well, in this case, we had two.
When I saw that he got two senators, two gentlemen that are bad news as far as I'm concerned, When I saw that he got approved by those two men, I said pull it because he can't be any good.
When I learned that he was blue-slipped through by two Democrat senators in Virginia, people that would never vote for it, people that haven't voted for us for probably years, okay, probably years.
In my opinion, two bad guys.
You know, they are Warner and Kane.
Two bad guys, bad senators, too.
They do a terrible job for the people of Virginia.
But when I saw that he got approved by these two terrible people that haven't voted, they just don't vote no matter what it is, we could give them the greatest deal ever, and they still wouldn't vote.
And they voted for this guy.
And I have other people, judges, and I have U.S. attorneys from other states who have the same situation, and they can't get approved.
So when I learned that they voted for him, I said, I don't really want him.
Have you seen the polling, the Gallup poll out of Ukraine that shows 23% less than a quarter of Ukrainians actually support continuing the war against Putin?
We saw the European leaders come here and try to say the world is united for the war effort, but Ukrainians have war fatigued themselves.
Yeah, well what we're doing is they're building plants all over the United States and frankly because of tariffs we're taking in trillions of dollars, trillions of dollars.
And countries that have ripped us off for years, and everyone knows this, countries that have ripped us off for years, like nobody's ever been ripped off before, they're now having to pay up.
They're paying a lot of, they're paying a lot of money to America and we're reducing taxes with that money and we're doing things that we were never able to do before.
So you're going to have a lot of jobs.
The jobs are being created right now and the tariffs, the tariffs are protecting our country and we used, you know, tariffs were used against us, but we didn't use them against others.
But we're really better at it than anybody else.
And we've taken in, we will have taken in trillions of dollars.
Nobody has ever seen anything like that.
Even people that were against the tariffs, now they see the way they're working.
And by the way, with no inflation, with no problem, we're just building up cash and we're using that cash to reduce taxes, reduce debt, and other things.
It's a great thing to watch.
And your honest reporters are saying they've never seen anything like what's happening.
Our country is becoming very rich again only because of tariffs.
If we didn't have it, if we didn't have, if I didn't get elected, this country would be, it was a dead country.
Look, we were a dead country a year ago, and now we're the most successful, most vibrant country anywhere in the world.
And I want, you know, I want the facts, but I also look at facts from Pfizer, where they spent a lot of money and the other drug companies, they spent a lot of money on finding out the results after the fact.
The results were amazingly good.
unidentified
I'm wondering if you've seen the video put out by former Israeli hostages.
It's addressed to you.
One is a widow of one that died, and these are people who are freed thanks to you.
But they're actually encouraging you to force a ceasefire, force that Nahu ceasefire.
And they didn't address it to him because they think you're the one who might actually listen to them and get it done.
They're worried that the hostages who are still there are more at risk if the war continues.
Who would ever think that we'd be sitting here talking about saving Chicago?
Chicago's a great city.
They have a terrible mayor.
Terrible.
He's at like a 5% approval rating.
He's an incompetent person.
They have an incompetent governor, in my opinion.
He's incompetent.
11 people get shot, and he says crime isn't a good shot.
I mean, they're losing four, five, six people a week getting killed by bullets, by knives.
And then he says how wonderful it is, Chicago.
Well, it might be wonderful for him.
I think they're afraid.
Look, he's not a stupid guy.
I really believe they're afraid to say that politically, I guess, from an ideology standpoint, from a Democratic standpoint, he's afraid.
He is afraid to say the fact that they have a very unsafe, very dangerous city.
He should say, I'm going to call President Donald Trump, and I'm going to ask him to send in the troops, to send in the National Guard and clean this hellhole up.
Because Chicago can be a great city again.
I'll tell you what, Washington, D.C. is a great place again.
It's booming.
And the restaurants are booming.
And six months ago, seven months ago, nobody could go outside.
And even just walking around the White House, people here are thanking me for what I've done.
They're thanking me.
They're saying thank you.
I almost know what they mean because they can walk to work.
And even when they took Uber and they took other forms of transportation, they felt unsafe because the car was hijacked while they're in there.
They take a car and it's being hijacked as they get into the car.
And they did that for safety.
And now we have a safe place.
You know, we've taken 1,500 people out of career criminals have been taken out of Washington, D.C.
And we were very nice about it.
unidentified
Do you know what are you doing?
Mr. President, you got a railroad, or did you discuss it with the Union Pacific?
I don't want to make a comment on it, but Union Pacific is a great railroad, and they want to add a railroad that had a mistake out of a place very close to my heart.
A lot of people say that that was a place where I got off to a very good start.
It was a rough thing that happened.
Well, they're trying to buy that railroad that had the problem.
And it sounds good to me, to be honest with you.
Sounds good to me.
I'm a very big fan of the head of the railroad, the head of the Union Pacific.
He started as a very low on the totem pole, started his job very low and became the chairman of the company over a 45-year period.
But I asked him about different cities.
He said St. Louis is tough.
You know, he sort of stops at many of them.
unidentified
Mr. President, when there's many around New Orleans, we have to save New Orleans.
New York.
Mr. President, when are you going to get to the city?
Even I can't believe zero, but the numbers are put out by very impartial people or people that have a tendency to be on the left.
And they actually said for the last three months, nobody came in.
We have a very strong border.
It's a closed border.
People are coming into our country, but they're coming in legally.
It's a beautiful thing to watch.
We are doing something where rather than coming into the border, 25 million people came into our country during Biden.
One of the saddest things, the worst thing, look, he was horrible in inflation.
He was horrible in just about everything you could be.
I don't think he was good on.
He wasn't even fair on anything.
It was a horrible administration.
He was the worst president in the history of our country.
And we have to mop it up.
The hardest thing that we have to do is to get rid of the criminals that he allowed into our country from prisons, from mental institutions, gang members, drug dealers.
And we're getting them out.
And we're getting them out fast.
And we're making America safe and get great again, but we're making America safe again.
And it's an honor to do it.
But this is something, this was an unforced era, what they've done.
This is just an unforced era.
So I'm going to ask Howard to speak.
Howard's done a fantastic job, as you know, Secretary of Commerce.
And I'm going to ask Howard and Will, Will, could you just give a quick description of what we're doing and what we're signing, etc.
A major focus of your administration has been shifting the conversation and shifting the policy dynamics around the issue of immigration, closing the border, preventing illegal immigration, but also, as is the case with the executive order in front of you, opening new pathways for truly extraordinary people to come contribute to America instead of taking away from it.
So this executive order is entitled the Gold Card.
It will set up a new pathway, a new visa pathway for foreigners of extraordinary ability who are committed to supporting the United States for a payment of $1 million to the U.S. Treasury or if a corporation is sponsoring them, $2 million by that corporation.
And that will give them access to expedited visa treatment as part of this new gold card program.
And one of the biggest problems we have is that people, they go to the best schools and they do great and they get great marks and then they're thrown out of the country.
You're not allowed to stay.
This way a corporation will be able, sort of like a signing bonus in baseball or football, a corporation will be able to get them to stay in the country.
And I think it's going to be tremendously successful.
Howard, would you say a few words about it, please?
So historically, the employment-based green card program let in 281,000 people a year and those people on average earned $66,000 a year on average and they were five times more likely to go on assistance programs of the government.
So we were taking in the bottom quartile below the average American.
It was illogical, the only country in the world that was taking in the bottom quartile.
So what we are doing now is we are going to stop doing that.
We're going to only take extraordinary people at the very top.
Instead of people trying to take the jobs from Americans, they're going to create businesses and create jobs for Americans.
And this program will raise more than $100 billion for the Treasury of the United States of America.
Which we'll use for cutting taxes and paying down debt.
We think it's going to be very successful.
Essentially, we're having people come in, people that in many cases, I guess, are very successful or whatever.
And they're coming in.
They're going to spend a lot of money to come in.
They're going to pay, as opposed to walking over the borders.
And they may come from jails, prisons, and everything else.
These people don't.
They're very productive people.
And they're going to pay a million dollars.
The corporation is going to pay $2 million.
And it's going to raise billions of dollars, billions and billions of dollars, which is going to go to reduce taxes, pay off debt, and other good things.
Companies are having a hard time getting people to be able to stay in the country.
It's very difficult.
Now, if you want to walk through the border, you can have no problem.
People say, well, the best way to come in is walk right through the border.
But they can't do that anymore.
Because under our administration, the border is totally closed.
You can only come in if you come in legally.
And that's the way it's been, and that's the way it should be.
And we're taking a lot of people out of the country that are here from prisons, from jails, from mental institutions, and even insane asylums, people that are crazy.
We're taking them out of the country.
We're getting them out of the country because you can't have a country like that.
And I tell you, Christy and Tom Holman and all of the people that have worked so hard on this, they've done an unbelievable job.
And I think we're getting great marks for it.
People feel safe.
Washington, D.C. is just the beginning.
You know, we brought the numbers down in Chicago a little bit by having the FBI in there for the last five months.
We brought the numbers down in Memphis a little bit, but now we're going for the big one.
Now we're going to go for the big one.
But we set ourselves up very well in Chicago, Memphis, New Orleans a little bit, going in early just to see what was happening.
We study it.
We're studying the site.
It's sort of like war.
I mean, I hate to tell you, it's like war.
Some of these people are really bad.
They're really, really sick people.
They're dangerous people.
They're killers.
They're murderers.
Drug dealers.
And you can't have it.
You can't have a country like that.
It's so beautiful to see at Washington, D.C., that people are walking down the middle of the street and they're going to restaurants, and you are too.
And half of you were mugged.
I mean, I don't know if she's here now.
I don't see her.
But, you know, some people were badly mugged that were reporters.
Two of the people right standing in the back of the room were mugged.
One, Secretary Luttnick's, the gold card and EV5 that create jobs, add investment, and then there's other ones that seem to take, you know, whether it's a J-1 and O or an H-1B that take U.S. jobs.
But the main thing is we're going to have great people coming in and they're going to be paying.
I mean, it's it's it's wonderful to say, oh, gee, this is we took in 25 million people that.
Look, many criminals, jails were open from Venezuela, from many other countries, and they were let out of jail and poured into our country.
Our poor country, how it suffered with this stupid president that we had and the stupid people that surrounded him right around his desk, these liberal, crazy people that have destroyed, they could have destroyed.
If we didn't win this election, our country would have been dead.
Our country was dead.
Think of it.
And I've said this, man.
The king of Saudi Arabia said, your country was dead one year.
They thought it was dead.
This country couldn't have survived another year of those people running it.
And now we have the hottest country anywhere in the world.
Think of that.
And this is going to help.
And we're taking in hundreds of billions of dollars.
This will be taking in, the gold card will be taking in hundreds of billions of dollars.
And companies will be able to keep some people that they need.
You know, they need people of expertise, great expertise.
And I think it's going to be a fantastic thing.
And we're going to take that money and we're going to reduce taxes.
We're going to reduce debt.
We have a very, very strong country.
Assuming everything works out great with the lawsuit that we have, we have a lawsuit that's inspired by foreign countries that ripped us off for 25 years.
But assuming we win that, we hopefully win it in the Supreme Court of the United States.
We have a country that no stopping us.
We're rich, we'll be rich.
We can take care of poor people.
We can take care of our military.
We can take care of everything.
We can take care of beyond the country.
We can help take care of the world.
That we don't just be the same struggle that we've had for years where other countries charged us tariffs and they ripped us off.
Our country has been ripped off more than any country in the history of the world.
And now we are doing what we have to do.
We're taking in billions and billions of dollars at levels that nobody has ever seen, trillions of dollars.
And we're using it to reduce debt.
We're using it to reduce taxes.
The Great Big Beautiful Bill is a big tax reduction.
It's being paid for by the tariffs, and people are paying a lot less money in taxes.
They're being, think of it, no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime.
It's an unbelievable phenomenon.
It really is.
It's the golden age.
We're making it the golden age.
Without the tariffs, it would be impossible.
And China, for years, charged us tariffs, and they continue to do it.
And so do other countries.
Most countries, they charge us, they were ripping.
Look, the European Union, as you know, I get along very well with them.
But they ripped us off so badly.
Nobody's ever seen anything now.
The European Union is paying us $950 billion, and they're paying us $750 billion to buy our energy.
And they're okay with it.
They signed the agreement.
You know, it's not like anybody forced them to do it.
They're okay with us.
Tariffs are making our country very rich again.
And we'll be able to take care of our debt.
We'll be able to take care of our taxes, lower taxes.
We'll be able to take care of Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security.
We're going to be a rich country again.
Without tariffs, we'd be in very big trouble.
unidentified
I still want Europe to pay 100% tariffs in China.
Excuse me, if you're sometimes used by people already in the country legally on other visas or student visas.
Does this apply to them or to renewals, or does it only apply to people applying for the first time from abroad?
The company needs to decide: do they want, is the person valuable enough to have a $100,000 a year payment to the government, or they should head home and they should go hire an American.
The whole idea, it's annual, and it's for total.
It can be a total of six years.
So $100,000 a year.
So either the person is very valuable to the company and America, or they're going to depart and the company's going to hire an American.
And that's the point of immigration.
Hire Americans and make sure the people coming in are the top, top people.
Stop the nonsense of letting people just come into this country on these visas that were given away for free.
The country would rather not have to pay $100,000.
But they'd rather, how do you do that?
You hire Americans.
So there's an incentive to hire American.
But there may be instances where it's better off doing it, through expertise or whatever it may be.
But they're both unbelievable, whether it's a gold card or anything else that we talked about today.
And that includes talking about freedom of speech, because our country has been decimated by bad people, very bad people, people that love crime.
They love crime.
Explain it to me.
They don't want to have our military go in and save lives.
But when you go and ask the people, do you mind having the National Guard come in if it meant safety?
They look at the question like, what's wrong?
What kind of a stupid question is that?
Of course they do.
We're going to have a safe country again.
We're not going to have people shot.
11 people shot.
Think of it.
In Chicago, over a period of six or seven weeks, 55 people were murdered.
And then you have a governor saying how wonderful it is.
It's not wonderful.
It's very unsafe.
There's not a place in the world.
You go outside, you go to Afghanistan, you go to different places all over the world that you hear about.
It's 20% of what's happening in places like Chicago.
And you think of them as unsafe.
Mexico City and Mexico City is a tough place, dangerous place.
The crime rate is lower.
Think of it.
What's happening to our country?
We're not going to let it happen.
And I think I got elected largely for that reason.
So we're going to have a safe country again.
We're going to have a great country again.
We're doing unbelievably.
We have the highest stock market in history.
We have the most investment we've ever had ever as a country coming in.
And we're very simple.
You know, they said, how'd you get elected?
I got elected because I'm going to make America great again.
That's what we're doing.
We're making America great again.
Thank you very much, everybody.
