	What's happening, guys?
	Welcome to another huge episode of Triggered.
	Like I've said, I've been on the road pretty much non-stop.
	It's been wild.
	I'm glad to be here during this jam-packed summer.
	It keeps getting busier, busier, crazier, etc.
	So, you know, a lot to cover, a lot going on.
	Amazing stuff regarding crypto.
	House just passed the Genius Act today.
	Next week, we'll have some guys from the space really talking about the details of that.
	Obviously, we're super long crypto and not because we were guys that were into it in 2012, but because of everything with debanking and all of the crap that happened to us once we got political, we saw that as a great opportunity to democratize finance, make things right.
	So I'll probably be talking with the guys from American Bitcoin, sort of a mining data center company my brother and I are working on heavily.
	We'll be talking eventually with the guys from World Liberty Financial on the stablecoins and the DeFi platform.
	For those of you who don't know anything about crypto, Monday we'll talk about it a lot and get into some of those details so you can kind of figure it out for yourself, how to start, how to build into it.
	For those of you who are experts, probably learn something too.
	So guys, remember to like, to share, and to subscribe so that you never miss one of these major episodes.

	And of course, don't forget about our brave sponsors, people who have the guts to support this program.
	Because honestly, after everything we've been through for the last few years, saying that we have trust issues with the so-called health experts is, I don't know, let's just say an understatement, okay?
	It's a serious, serious understatement.
	They used pressure, lies, and red tape to block access to medications that were once easy to get.
	Okay, they lied about a lot of those medications as well.
	That cannot happen again.
	And with all-family pharmacy, it won't.
	All-family pharmacy is redefining health care.
	No waiting rooms, no delays, no insurance games or gimmicks, none of that nonsense.
	Just direct access to over 200 trusted medications, including ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, antibiotics, emergency kits, and so much more.

	Remember to protect yourself for the future with the Birch Gold Group.

	One of the best ways is to look after your savings, and it's through diversification, like with gold, from my trusted friends at the Birch Gold Group.
	For the past 12 months, the value of gold has increased by 40%.
	Central banks continue to bolster demand for gold by buying in record quantities.
	Easily convert an existing IRA or 401 into a tax-sheltered IRA in actual physical gold, or even to store actual gold in your home safe.
	Just text my name, Don Jr., D-O-N-J-R, to the number 989898, and Birch Gold will send you a free info kit on gold.

	That's what we're here, and that's what we're all about.
	Educate yourself.
	So again, text Don Jr. to the number 989898.
	And now, with that, guys, let's take a look at some of the top headlines.
	For years and years, we had to listen to the Democrats and their cronies in the media tell us that an open border, it was compassionate, remember?
	Open border is wonderful.
	It's compassionate.
	They called us racist and everything else in the book for wanting to build a wall.
	They lectured us while millions of bad hombres poured into our country, bringing with them crime, chaos, death, and more.
	And now, now that we have a president who actually takes the border seriously, we're seeing just how much the swamp was lying to us all along.
	The border is being shut down.
	Illegal crosses have plummeted to historic lows.
	We're actually deporting criminals.
	And the media?
	No praise.
	No, wow, these new policies are working.
	Why?
	Because it proves how right all along we were.
	In June, there were zero, okay?
	Zero illegal crossings.
	Okay?
	I'll say that again, guys, just so we're clear.
	Zero.
	The border numbers are real and they're spectacular.
	And the huge part of this is the fight against The fentanyl crisis.
	It's taken far too many lives and is the number one cause of death among young Americans and even teenagers.
	It's a tragedy in the worst possible way.
	Under the last administration, this poison flooded our country.
	It was a chemical weapon being used to poison our people, and they did nothing about it.
	Nothing.
	And now, we finally said enough.
	Yesterday, my father signed into law the HALT Fentanyl Act, which will place all fentanyl-related substances on the Drug Enforcement Administration's list of the most dangerous drugs, classifying them as Schedule I under the Control Substances Act.
	We're closing the loopholes that criminals use to skirt around the law, and it will now be easier for law enforcement to prosecute those criminals and save countless lives.
	This isn't just about putting out a press release.
	This is about taking tangible action to save American lives.
	And yesterday, the families who lost loved ones to Fennel delivered emotional remarks about their own story and turning their own pain into passion for saving future generations to come.
	Good afternoon, Mr. President and distinguished guests.
	My name is Anne Fendner.
	Thank you.
	And I'm an angel parent.
	One year ago today, on July 16th, I stood in front of America and told the story of my son Weston, the RNC.
	And about how he was a beautiful, loving, had a wonderful life.
	We did everything right.
	But one pill, one mistake, given by a friend under peer pressure took his life.
	In the last four years, fentanyl became the number one killer of Americans, ages 15 to 48.
	And children under 14 are the fastest growing demographic.
	President Trump, for four years we felt ignored.
	But you've changed that.
	And we appreciate that so much.
	You've closed the borders, sanctioned cartels, imposed tariffs, closed shipping loopholes.
	Most people don't know about that.
	That was a big one.
	Dealt with countries where it's coming from.
	You mobilized Treasury, Justice Department, Homeland Security, lawmakers, legislators.
	And today, the signing of the Fentanyl Act, bipartisan and overwhelmingly supported by everybody.
	Making fentanyl a schedule one drug to strengthen the criminalization and prosecution of people who peddle this.
	It is a lifeline for families across America, keeping our families safe.
	And that's all you always want to keep America safe.
	Thank you so much.
	Thank you for keeping America safe and for our children.
	And this is what we voted for, Mr. President.
	God bless you.
	God bless our angel families who are all here with us today and all of you sitting up here with us.
	And God bless America.
	Thank you so much.
	This was a big one for me.
	I met that lady, that mom who lost her son at the RNC.
	One of the co-sponsors of the bill, Addison McDowell, he's a congressman from North Carolina, a good friend of mine, one of, you know, brother of a really good friend of mine.
	I campaigned very hard for him in North Carolina to become a congressman there.
	His number one issue was that because Addison and his brother lost their third brother to fentanyl in an overdose.
	And so it was one of the passion things that he ran on.
	I saw that passion.
	I saw the lack of action.
	So it was awesome to be able to help someone out who actually co-sponsored and put this bill into action that my father signed into law to make this insanity stop.
	I mean, when you think about the numbers, I always remember, I think it was 100,000 deaths a year.
	I mean, think about that.
	100,000 American deaths a year is what I've read.
	It's two Vietnams.
	Two Vietnams.
	Vietnam's like a 12, 13-year war.
	Two of them.
	A year.
	And no one did anything.
	Nothing.
	So that has to stop.
	That has to change.
	And this is actual, real action, not talk, not nonsense, but action.
	This is powerful.
	It's profound.
	We've put up with it for far too long as evil cartels and rogue regimes have flooded our nation with terrorists, gang members, and drugs, CCP, SIOP operations, because fentanyl targets everyone equally, right?
	This isn't a drug that only hits, it hits everyone.
	Everyone watching right now, I'm sure, has one degree of separation from someone who lost a loved one or perhaps even a direct person who lost their lives to this insanity and this poison.
	And it's got to stop.
	And it's time we put an end to it.
	So this was huge.
	Something I'm super excited about.
	It was a huge issue for me.
	I mean, one of the biggest reasons to close the border.
	You have, obviously, you know, fentanyl, the insanity of all of this for that long was a big one.
	So I'm really excited to see that.
	And guys, it does not stop there, though, because today, Treasury Secretary Scott Besund sanctioned six leaders and key affiliates of the Maduro terrorist cartel, Trende LaRagua, because the Trump administration will not allow Trende LaRaga to continue to terrorize our communities and harm innocent Americans.
	So while this administration is cleaning up the border, we're also cleaning up the economic mess the Democrats left behind after four years of insanity.
	Remember Bidenomics?
	Bidenomics was working for you.
	I don't get it.
	Listen, I always remember, if Donald Trump Jr. has sticker shock at McDonald's or when he's buying eggs or whatever it may be, That's a serious problem for America.
	But Bidenomics was working.
	No one saw it.
	No one could feel it.
	They felt the opposite.
	But trust me, guys, that was the media narrative.
	Remember Bidenomics?
	I mean, that was one of the dumbest things I ever.
	I was like, wow, I can't believe they're actually doing this, but they did.
	That was code for massive inflation, guys.
	That Bidenomics.
	Massive inflation, runaway spending, and a war on American energy.
	Your grocery bills went through the roof.
	Your gas prices were insane.
	And for what?
	So they could pour your money into green new scam far-left fantasies.
	Probably funding transgender surgeries and awareness in third world nations.
	Billions and billions wasted.
	We've changed that now, guys.
	It's called investing in America and Build Back Better.
	Remember when they tried doing that one too?
	Build Back Better.
	Huh, really?
	I don't know what they were building back better.
	We built back broke.
	Remember Build Back Better?
	That was a good one too.
	They're good at marketing.
	They're good with these little catchy titles, but none of it ever seems to pan out.
	But nothing came back.
	Nothing was better.
	And not much was really built.
	Remember when they spent like $7 billion to get like one charging station or zero for EV mandates?
	Because what they were doing was simply wasting your money on an epic scale.
	Probably de facto funding their friends and other NGOs, whatever it was, all kickbacks to the Democrat fundraising apparatus.
	There is no better example of this than the disaster, though, known as the California Bullet Train.
	The California, I don't know, the EV one was pretty bad.
	What was the number, guys?
	It was like $7 billion, and they built like...
	You're right.
	But it was like, I'm like, seven.
	And that's a lot of money for seven charging stations.
	And I don't think it was like seven major charging stations in like a major city.
	It was like seven plugs.
	Like they plugged seven things into a wall and seven billion dollars.
	What incredible use of funds.
	But the California Bullet Train was another big one.
	But now my father and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy finally pulled the plug, clawing back billions of your money from this train to nowhere.
	Literally, it was actually a train literally to nowhere, billion dollar projects.
	After 16 years and $15 billion spent, they hadn't laid a single piece of high-speed track.
	You know how hard it is to spend $15 billion and do nothing?
	I mean, think, not a single piece of track.
	The train was going to like a town that no one went to, a place that wasn't populated.
	$15 billion, 16 years.
	The project cost an estimated $135 billion, right?
	So the cost balloons to $135 billion.
	What's $135 billion between friends?
	For a train to go nowhere.
	This isn't a train.
	It's a giant slush fund for Democrat cronies.
	And we just turned off the spigot.
	Check this out.
	The estimated costs that have shot up from $33 billion to $43 billion.
	The project is estimated to cost $68 billion.
	A new report shows California's high-speed braille project is costing taxpayers more than $3 million a day.
	The LA Times reports the budget has grown to $77 billion.
	The cost for the project, though, has jumped to nearly $128 billion, much higher than the $33 billion voters approved in 2008.
	The project is no longer a $33 billion project.
	The project's years and years behind.
	The project's wildly over budget.
	That doesn't mean it's a bad idea, but it is a bad idea not to be truthful about things.
	Gavin Newsom is a bad idea.
	And so is California's high-speed rail boondago.
	It's now projected to cost $135 billion.
	For that price tag, we could give every single resident of LA and San Francisco almost 200 free flights.
	This is the definition of government incompetence and possibly corruption.
	That's why we're pulling the plug.
	No more federal funds for this high-speed train to nowhere.
	President Trump and I won't help Gavin Newsom waste your money.
	You see, it was costing $3 million a day, like in 2021.
	Like, I'm sure that's a lot more now.
	What was it for a train that goes nowhere?
	I mean, that stat that Sean Duffy brought up was incredible.
	They could get every resident of Los Angeles, every resident, like these millions of people, 200 and San Francisco.
	My team's like, yeah, and San Francisco.
	That's a good city of a couple million.
	200 free flights to wherever they want to go.
	I mean, think about how insane that is.
	That's how much they were spending.
	And what's the alternative to their waste?
	Guys, what's the alternative?
	There's actually things that we could do that would probably better use of those funds.
	How about like an actual America-first economic agenda?
	It's common sense.
	We're cutting the regulations that kill businesses.
	We're unleashing American energy.
	We are an energy superpower and we're finally acting like it again.
	And yes, we're using tariffs to protect our workers and our industries from countries that cheat.
	Our loyalty is to the American worker.
	We're bringing jobs back.
	We're making things in America again.
	And that's how you build real, lasting prosperity for everyone.
	Just look at your screen for a second.
	Major companies continue to roll out one investment announcement after another.
	The list gets longer and longer every day in states across the country.
	You saw it earlier this week in Pennsylvania.
	But it's in state after state after state.
	Companies like Brookfield, Samsung, Rolls-Royce, Amgen, Honda, Faraday Future, Westinghouse, Kraft, Heinz, they're All going in and all in on the Trump agenda.
	Maybe tariffs actually work, guys.
	Maybe they actually do it with Americans and American workers because there's incentive to do so.
	Okay?
	I'd love them to do it on their own, but if everyone's going to give them the freebies, we might as well make sure we take advantage of it and bring it back home.
	I could literally do a whole show just going through the lists.
	I mean, look at all these things.
	These are major businesses.
	What?
	$3 billion, $1.7 billion, $1.4 billion, billion, billion, billion, $900 million.
	I mean, it goes on and on.
	Stuff that literally did not exist.
	It's like we brought in a trillion dollars of investment.
	This looks like more based on just doing the basic math, but just by having common sense.
	Okay?
	Again, here's just another small sample on why the Trump economic agenda is working.
	Check this out.
	Tariffs are now luring at least a couple of foreign companies to manufacture their products stateside.
	This includes South Korea's Samsung.
	They are now going to produce their washing machines out of Newberry, South Carolina.
	Steve Harrigan has those details for us.
	Hey, Steve.
	Billy, those washing machines are actually rolling off the assembly lines right behind me.
	There's been a whole lot of debate in Newberry, South Carolina about whether or not President Trump's tariffs helped or hurt the economy here.
	They say it helped.
	Putting in 20 to 50% tariffs on foreign-made washing machines back in 2018 motivated Samsung to build a $500 million washing machine manufacturing plant here, making them instantly the county's largest taxpayer.
	I think tariffs are a really important topic in our current environment.
	Even before tariffs became a really hot topic, we're trying to strike that American dream, right?
	Made an America for Americans.
	That factory also created more than 1,600 jobs here, starting salary of $17 an hour.
	That's a lot higher than the local minimum wage here of just $7.50 an hour.
	Family, we just run over to the electronic area.
	I get a really proud feeling when I see those customers walking out of the store with product that was built here.
	Man, it's almost like all we needed was a new president.
	It's working.
	And as I mentioned, we saw something incredible this week in the Keystone State.
	Here's Senator Dave McCormick on the Pennsylvania Investment Summit and what it matters and why it matters more than ever before.
	Check this out.
	And I had talked right after the election, and he had agreed to come to Pennsylvania to talk about really the energy revolution and the AI revolution.
	And the crossroads for the two is Pennsylvania.
	And the reason is we have abundant energy.
	We're the second largest energy producer in the United States, the fourth largest natural gas reserves in the world, an incredible skilled workforce, incredible technology.
	We had this at CMU, this summit at Carnegie Mellon University, which is one of the leading AI producers.
	And so I asked the president to come, and the fact that he came was an opportunity to reinforce his policies and what they're doing for America.
	We had 60 major CEOs, $90 billion of investments in data centers, in energy transmission, energy infrastructure, energy distribution, nuclear reactors.
	And then beyond that, we had 150 members of the media so we could tell Pennsylvania's story.
	And finally, the thing I think clinched it for the president, he and I could both say, and this is what he campaigned on and I campaigned on, we're bringing jobs and opportunity to working families across Pennsylvania.
	So it was really a great day, and the president brought many key members of his cabinet, Secretary Bessant, Secretary Luttnick, Secretary Bergham, Secretary Wright, David Sachs, Lee Zeldon.
	We really had the A-team and it was a great day for Pennsylvania.
	And just today, we saw another legislative win for the Trump administration as the House, it's a big one, overwhelmingly passed the Genius Act, which now heads to the president's desk.
	Now, the Genius Act is the first major crypto legislation ever passed by Congress.
	It establishes clear, actionable rules for stable coins and digital assets and also sends a clear message that the U.S. will lead the world in common sense crypto regulation.
	The bill also prohibits the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency.
	Okay, that's a big one, guys.
	All the things that crypto was designed to do, you have a CBDC and all of a sudden you lose all those benefits.
	Again, we got into crypto not because we were on the leading edge.
	We're all in now, but we got into crypto out of necessity because we saw how broken so many of the regular financial institution, traditional finance, TradFi, was broken.
	It was biased.
	It was biased certainly once we got political.
	I always say it.
	I didn't realize for my years as a real estate guy in New York City when I could call any banker in the world and have him pick up the phone and get a loan in five minutes that, you know what, not everyone else can do that.
	Now it's going to be based on the merits we created, the guardrails, the foundation for how to do that to ensure that the future of finance, which I believe crypto is going to be, stays in America, that we don't force this likely trillion dollar industry to be sent abroad, to be in other countries.
	We're going to lead the world in crypto.
	That's a big deal.
	This legislation divides regulatory jurisdiction for digital assets between the Commodity Future Trading Commission, the CFTC, and the Securities Exchange Commission, establishing definitions of three types of digital assets.
	Securities, commodities, and stablecoins.
	Of course, it's not only about the economy.
	We're in a fight for the soul of this country.
	A fight against the radical woke ideology that has infected every major institution, from our schools To our corporations.
	They want to tell you that men can be women, that math is somehow magically racist, and that America is an evil country.
	We're fighting back to protect our kids, to protect women's sports, and to restore basic common sense.
	Guys, that's what it's really all about, right?
	It's about common sense.
	It's about reality.
	It's about truth, and the left cannot handle the truth.
	And who is the chief purveyor of the woke propaganda?
	Who pushes these lies more than anyone?
	The taxpayer-funded regime media like NPR, National Public Radio.
	For years, I remember when I lived out in Colorado, right?
	I graduated from college.
	I moved out west.
	I was a bartender for, you know, almost two years living in the mountains.
	Sometimes NPR was the only thing I could get on the radio.
	This is like when you had like CDs still, like it was, it was a little different.
	This was the, you know, year 2000.
	I was listening to this garbage and back then it was really woke and it's gotten much, much worse.
	Entirely left-wing propaganda paid for by you, even if you're not even remotely left-wing.
	For years, we've had to pay for this.
	Your tax dollars funding a media organization that despises you, that looks down on you, that thinks half the country is deplorable and probably worse.
	Thankfully, today, the Senate slashed NPR and PBS public broadcasting stations funding, which is long overdue.
	Because honestly, why should we be subsidizing our own destruction?
	Why should we be subsidizing one political party and their ridiculous and failed ideas?
	They call it national public radio, but it's simply state-sponsored media for the DNC.
	They're not journalists.
	They're activists.
	They're propagandists with a press pass.
	We're ending the handout.
	If they want to push their radical agenda, they can do it on their own dime.
	It is a free country, after all.
	It's just got to be free both ways.
	They can do it on their own dime and not yours.
	We believe in a free press, not a taxpayer-funded press, not a press that only does the bidding of one political party.
	But again, guys, according to CEO of NPR, Catherine Maher, NPR just calls balls and strikes.
	Wink, wink, wink.
	I mean, I can't even say it with a straight face.
	I mean, but again, just sort of clear, you know, just calls balls and strikes, folks.
	But let me remind you, this is the same woman who claimed that America is addicted to white supremacy.
	Here's what she said this week, this week on cable news.
	Remember, she was called out a couple months ago.
	We talked about it on the show.
	But this week, this is what she said.
	As far as the accusations that were biased, I would stand up and say, please show me a story that concerns you because we want to know and we want to bring that conversation back to our newsroom.
	Okay.
	Again, Wink, sure.
	Good job, Catherine.
	It's amazing, man.
	I know, you know, of course, that's going to be on CNN and these kind of places, so there will be no pushback.
	But in response to that, Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana decided to put together some of NPR's greatest hits.
	She asked for a list, and she got it.
	Guys, this is not parody.
	These are real headlines from NPR, an organization that is taxpayer-funded.
	That's supposed to be unbiased, but I'd say probably is not.
	But I'll let you judge for yourselves.
	Check it out.
	There's more.
	I could do this all night, but I'm not.
	Here's some more headlines from NPR.
	There is no neutral.
	Nice white people can still be complicit in a racist society.
	That's what your tax dollars paid for.
	Another one.
	Ibram X. Kendi says no one is not racist.
	So what should we do?
	Another one.
	How artificial intelligence could perpetuate racism, sexism, and other biases in society.
	Another, scientists debunk lab accident theory of pandemic emergence.
	Here's another one.
	As Trump pushes theory of virus origins, some see parallels to lead up and lead up to Iraq war.
	Your tax dollars at work.
	As U.S. confronts Russia, Trump's admiration of Putin is consistent.
	Another headline from NPR.
	The history of policing and race in the United States are deeply intertwined.
	Another.
	After Biden's debate performance, the presidential race is unchanged.
	This was the debate performance that President Biden gave after which he got out of the race.
	If you believe that headline, you believe in the tooth fairy and the Easter money and that Jimmy Hoffa died of natural causes.
	But that's what NPR reported with your tax dollars.
	Guys, I mean, the lab origins theory.
	I mean, remember, like, I think I got canceled for this one back in the day because I was like, you mean to tell me that it's not even plausible?
	I mean, of course it was the most plausible, but that maybe the Wuhan virus, named because it started in Wuhan, where we had the lab that we were funding with NIH dollars, that it may have come from the lab that was ground zero for the virus, from the lab that studied the exact virus.
	I mean, remember when you were canceled for saying that?
	Don, you're not an immunologist.
	How could you say anything?
	It's like, you don't have to be an immunologist.
	You just have to not be a freaking imbecile.
	It's not that hard.
	I wish Senator Kennedy would have gone over to the other side of him, my right, his left, and seen Michael Avenati, a profile and a media savvy attorney.
	Remember Michael Avenatti?
	That's the guy that shook down, I guess, Nike.
	He was the guy that the Democrats were thinking about running as a frontrunner against Trump in 2020.
	He was the Stormy Daniels attorney.
	He was the guy, I think he shook down, didn't he shake down like a paraplegic client or like stole his money for like millions of dollars?
	I think he's in jail still, serving like a seven-year sentence.
	I don't remember the exact sentence, but I think it's a seven-year sentence.
	He was the guy that predicted that I was going to go to jail for, I'm not sure exactly what, I guess, you know, Russia, Russia, Russia.
	I mean, that's NPR.
	Those are their heroes.
	Lab leak theory.
	I mean, how dare you question that?
	These people are nuts.
	Okay.
	They're insane.
	You think they've ever had anything that's even remotely pro-Republican?
	Because I bet you that list would be a lot harder to compile.
	And as crazy as the DC Democrats get, there's a communist running for mayor in New York City named Zorhan Mandani.
	And no matter how extreme the Democrats go, Mandani seems to just say, you know what?
	Hold my beer.
	It never ends.
	Every time.
	And by the way, and he keeps getting their backing.
	There's nothing that he can say that's too radical for these wild radical Democrats.
	Because newly surfaced footage shows him floating the idea of abolishing private property altogether.
	Meaning, like you just get rid of private property.
	You can't own anything.
	But remember, guys, I think I tweeted about this earlier today.
	Like, yeah, definitely not a communist.
	I mean, you can't have any private property.
	If you did, you're a communist.
	Check this out.
	Every single person should have housing.
	And I think based with these two options, the system has hundreds of thousands of people unhoused, right?
	For what?
	And if there was any system that could guarantee each person housing, whether you call it the abolition of private property or you call it just a statewide housing guarantee, it is preferable to what is going on right now.
	And I think that people try and play like gotcha games about these kinds of things.
	And it's like, look, I care more about whether somebody has a home.
	Guys, there's a famous quote from longtime NFL coach Dennis Green that reads, they are who we thought they were.
	Okay?
	They are.
	That's exactly how we should sum up the Democrat Party.
	They're exactly who we thought they were.
	And actually, probably worse.
	Because most of them probably believe the same thing.
	They're just smart enough to not say it out loud.
	They'll just get elected, they'll take office, and then they'll do all of those things, pretending they're not doing them, while having the cover of mainstream media, of big tech, of social, of all of it, and they get away with it.
	Because today, there's yet another meltdown because the biggest gender-affirming care center, I mean, you know what I mean?
	Gender-affirming care because your three-year-old should be able to switch genders and, you know, destroy their body, mutilate their genitals, you know, because their rainbow-haired teacher convinced them that they were something other than what they were.
	But this was a huge meltdown because, again, the biggest gender-affirming care center for kids at Los Angeles Children's Hospital is closing down.
	Guys, this is a reason to celebrate.
	Okay, it's closing down.
	We're not funding it.
	We're saying enough is enough.
	The insanity has to stop.
	But guys, according to the AP, the Associated Press, it's a sign of, quote, bigotry.
	Really?
	Is it?
	I don't know.
	It seems like a sign of common sense.
	Okay?
	Is it really bigotry for holding hospitals accountable?
	For pushing drugs and sterilization on young kids, guilting their parents, or allowing insane liberal parents to do this to their children?
	I don't know.
	These people are nuts.
	If they're adults and they want to do it, I don't want to pay for it.
	I don't want to hear about it and stay the hell away from my kids.
	Otherwise, have at it.
	That's not what they want.
	They want to do that.
	And there's a reason, the recidivism rate of children who go through these things, even older people who do that, even the ones who do it voluntarily, perhaps, and I imagine they've been brainwashed or put on so many meds they can't actually think straight.
	But there's a reason that recidivism rate where they're like, I really regret that.
	I wish I wouldn't have done it.
	Now I've destroyed my body and I'm on these drugs forever and I can't have kids and yada, yada, yada, yada, yada, is in like the 90% range.
	Okay?
	Again, this should be a 100 to zero issue or at least a 90-10.
	I mean, it's hard to believe that, okay, if we're saying the country's 50-50 and 10% of Democrats want to do it, 20% of Democrats perhaps actually still believe that, but like at least a 90-10 issue.
	But Democrats and the media just can't bring themselves to admit the obvious, that this amounts to medical malpractice and probably worse.
	And we're not stopping at just one hospital.
	Others around the country, including Cincinnati Children's Hospital, is also under FBI investigation for allegedly violating federal statutes relating to bans on female genital mutilation.
	Honestly, is it just me or is it like hard to believe that we're even having this conversation in 2025 in America?
	Like we're going to have to really talk about, I mean, we really want to be able to do genital mutilation on females.
	I mean, we're going to make sure we do that.
	It's nuts.
	And remember, guys, we've covered Cincinnati Children's Hospital on this show before with the so-called butcher of Pakistan, a spinal surgeon who deformed and destroyed the bodies of hundreds of patients and then fled the country, allegedly with the help of a Berkshire Hathaway insurance company who was refusing to pay the victims.
	Remember that one?
	We spoke about the lawyer.
	We spoke on this show with the lawyer actually handling that case, which sounds a whole lot like another investigation that's also on its way.
	Because for too long, sick medical experimentation has gone unpunished.
	And that's all changing now.
	Look, all of this is connected.
	The disastrous open border, the left's equity economy, the insane cultural war, the corrupt media, it was all part of the same managed decline, okay, to ensure our DELF, our full commitment to communism, insanity, and whatever disastrous dystopian utopia the Democrats are really looking for.
	It's all about power.
	It was the swamp's agenda to make America weaker, poorer, and more divided.
	That gives them control.
	The good news is that's over now.
	And there are more and more signs that we are, in fact, winning the culture war.
	Common sense is making a comeback.
	And so is comedy.
	Because it's okay to laugh again.
	I know.
	Remember the attack?
	Remember?
	Like, there hasn't been a lot funny said in like the last decade.
	People refused to do it.
	Comedians didn't want to get canceled.
	And so they dumbed down their acts and couldn't do it.
	And you sit there and be like, is that comedy or is that just a lecture?
	I didn't get it.
	Just look at this clip from Shane Gillis last night at the Espys.
	Four-time WNBA All-Star Brittany Hicks is here.
	Give it up for Brittany, everybody.
	I'm joking around.
	That's my friend's wife.
	I knew none of you knew.
	WNBA players.
	That's crazy and clap for the.
	Four-time WNBA All-Star Brittany Hicks is here.
	Give it up for Brittany, everybody.
	I'm joking around.
	That's my friend's wife.
	I knew none of you knew WNBA players.
	That's crazy and clap for the.
	You just can't make it up.
	And we also found more of NPR's greatest hits from Senator Kennedy, which we just have to play.
	Literally, my team's pulling up.
	By the way, there was more.
	There's a longer clip.
	They read what I was saying.
	I'm like, it's sort of amazing, but let's play it, okay?
	Let's see what we got.
	I want to give you a few examples of stories that NPR has published using taxpayer money.
	I'll just read the headlines.
	First headline, NPR News Service.
	Michael Avenati, quote, a profile of the media savvy attorney.
	They love Michael Avenatti.
	You know where Michael Avenatti is today?
	He's in jail.
	You know why?
	He's a crook.
	But for a while, he was a media darling on NPR.
	Here's another headline from NPR.
	How racism became a marketing tool for country music.
	I kid you not.
	The American taxpayers are spending half a billion dollars a year to pay a local station to buy content that says country music is racist.
	Here's another headline from NPR.
	Donald Trump's long embrace of Vladimir Putin.
	Remember the Russiagate?
	Steele dossier?
	NPR was right in there promoting it.
	A couple more headlines that NPR is putting out there using your tax dollars.
	This headline, monuments and teams have changed names.
	Let me say it again.
	Monuments and teams, presumably sports teams, have changed names as America with racism.
	Birds are next.
	I don't know any birds that are racist.
	Here's another headline.
	Eating less beef is a climate solution.
	Eating less beef is a climate solution.
	I don't have anything against vegetarians.
	I'm a semi-vegetarian myself.
	I eat beef and beef and cows eat grass.
	So that makes me a semi-vegetarian.
	But that's my choice.
	Not on NPR.
	Eating less beef is a climate solution.
	Here's why that's hard for some American men.
	Here's a final headline.
	I could go on the rest of the evening.
	How the Taliban adds to Afghanistan's woes when it comes to climate-fueled disasters.
	Boy, I can tell you that's on the mind of every person in Afghanistan today.
	It's climate change.
	And the Taliban.
	I can guarantee you.
	I don't have a problem with these headlines.
	This is America.
	I'm not sure, guys.
	I can probably come up with a couple other ways that the Taliban adds woes to Afghanistan.
	It has nothing to do with climate.
	That's where billions of dollars have been funneled for decades.
	But the American people have woken up.
	We saw what was happening and we put a stop to it.
	The work we've done in the last six months is just the beginning.
	We're turning the ship around.
	We're putting America first in everything that we do.
	We're restoring common sense.
	But we can't get complacent.
	The swamp never sleeps.
	The media will keep lying.
	The radical left will keep pushing their nonsense.
	They are relentless, and that means we have to be too.
	This is more than just politics.
	This is our future.
	This is Western civilization.
	This is our children.
	This is a movement to restore this country to the principles that made it great all along.
	It's a fight for freedom, for prosperity, and for our future.
	So I need you to stay in the fight with us.
	Don't let them demoralize you.
	Don't ever bend the knee.
	We have them on the run.
	Or, in Jerry Nadler's case, a very slow, penguin-like walk.
	They are panicked because we are undoing all of the Democrats' destructive work.
	We're actually winning.
	Stay engaged, stay focused, and even stay a little bit triggered and never, ever stop fighting to make America great again.
	Thank you all.
	You're the heartbeat of this movement.
	I really appreciate it.
