Owen Shroyer and Justin Goodman expose the Trump administration’s 956 daily deportations (Jan 2025), targeting violent criminals like Lev Tahor cult leader Yoel Alter, while criticizing liberal misinformation and Hollywood’s glorification of cartels. Rand Paul’s 14 subpoenas on Wuhan lab research could force accountability after Trump’s early admission of its origins. Trump’s policies—federal hiring/regulation freezes, $500M WHO exit, cartel terror designations, and DEI purge—aim to slash bureaucracy, boost energy, and end "birthright citizenship" abuse, contrasting with Biden’s $20B animal testing revival, including fetal tissue experiments. Shroyer warns of government weaponization, from property access blocks in California to potential bird flu "pandemic" manipulation, urging resistance against policies he calls tyrannical.

How many people listening to this right now could have picked Margaret Brennan's face out of a crowd?
Well, after this, she gets exposed as fake news.
And she is like the quintessential fake news.
A hired actress to pretend like she's a member of the media.
A trusted, esteemed member of the press.
Meet the press.
Margaret Brennan.
Well, she's exposed now.
Now you can pick one of her many faces out.
Like it's on one of those headshot portfolios that they hand out in Los Angeles.
That's Margaret Brennan.
So now you know who she is because of this disastrous interview.
So we got some clips from that.
We also have, of course, some Trump clips from over the weekend laying the smack down on the California Democrats right to their face.
Tom Holman is embedded with a group of, well, it's really Dr. Phil and his media crew.
As they're going around doing deportations, we have the latest numbers.
They're starting to go up as far as the deportations, but they're in there showing the entire process and how they identify their suspects, the backgrounds that they're going after, everything else.
Fully transparent, they're explaining it.
And Dr. Phil and Tom Holman are just sitting there like, how can anyone be against this?
Well, clearly you haven't met the modern-day liberal Democrat.
They're against whatever you're for.
You could be for oxygen.
They're against it.
And by the way, that happened.
They put on a mask.
They cut their own oxygen supply off.
Some of them still wear the mask.
Hey, I'm pro-breathing.
I'm against breathing.
Okay, then.
You got me.
So you got that.
Now we do have the, maybe the most exciting confirmation hearings coming up.
Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr., and Kash Patel all this week.
And we'll get into all the other things Trump has been up to as well.
But as we predicted, as the deportations begin, the leftist protest groups are out in the streets waving a foreign nation's flag.
You know, I wish I could celebrate yesterday the ICE Enforcement Update.
They're doing a running tally every day.
I mean, this is about as transparent as a process as you can get with Dr. Phil embedded with Tom Holman and then showing the entire process.
And we'll show you some of these clips.
They're exposing the mainstream media lies and propaganda, Democrat Party propaganda.
And they're showing who it is that they are deporting.
It's the most wicked criminals, people with records of abusing children and rape and violent crimes.
So, you know, who would complain about that?
Well, it doesn't matter to the liberal Democrat.
It doesn't matter to the mainstream media.
It's all about political propaganda and information warfare.
And then they get their people to buy it.
Wholeheartedly.
So that's all you can do if you're Tom Holman, is embed yourself or embed a group of journalists with you so that they can expose the whole process.
And people want to ignore the truth, and I guess that's just on them.
But, okay, the numbers from yesterday, 956 arrests.
They'll all be deported.
956 arrests.
Folks, at a thousand a day, if they did a thousand a day, you can obviously do the math.
You're still nowhere near where you need to be.
You're nowhere near where you need to be.
And I'm not even mad at ICE. It's not about Trump or Tom Holman.
You have to understand the situation.
They had, and I've got some of these other numbers in front of me too.
They had just...
One organization alone was getting hundreds of billions of dollars to build an infrastructure of human trafficking and illegal immigration, a pipeline, a well-oiled machine into this country.
Now, it works with all the NGOs.
It works with the UN. But there's a motivation.
The individual is trying to come into the country and trying to live off of welfare.
And so they just get a little push.
They just get a little push on the way with all the money and all the infrastructure built up for this illegal immigration pipeline.
So they get that push, but they're making the effort.
And that's the difference.
You don't have that flow going the other way.
They can't just build this deportation infrastructure and then the people are going to deport themselves.
No, they got to gear up a team.
They got to load up a team.
They have to get all the background information.
Then they have to do a little bit of reconnaissance themselves to, okay, he's going to be here, he's going to be here, he's going to be there.
When do we want to bring him in?
We don't want to do it in a big public place.
We don't want to do it where it could get violent.
So they got to do this whole process just to get one person.
But this isn't a situation where you just have this infrastructure and then a natural organic flow of people who are trying to come into the country that just get that boost.
10 million, 20 million, whatever the number is under Joe Biden.
No, now the effort it takes for one person to come in, I would say really the effort it takes for a thousand people probably to come in is what it takes to deport one of these violent illegal immigrants.
Maybe 10,000.
So I get it.
It's frustrating.
We need to deport millions of people.
The whole thing is out of control.
It was broken by design.
But they're actually doing it.
And they're doing it the right way, and they're doing it the transparent way.
They know they have to go up against the propaganda.
They know they have to get all the American people to understand what's happening here.
With 20 million illegal immigrants, unless they're all going to turn themselves in and deport themselves, this is what you have to do.
And they're doing it.
And my guess is the operations only get ramped up.
They're going to be able to hire more people.
They're going to be able to divert more resources.
At some point in the very near future, you will see a thousand a day.
You will see a thousand deportations a day.
They're building up to it.
But they have to get on the ground and operating.
And get a little flow here.
It was week one.
Holman clearly knows what he's doing.
Now, let's go look at this.
Again, you have a media crew.
It looks like you have Dr. Phil and a media crew embedded with them.
I'm sure there's some other journalists embedded with them.
Well, and I do know the Trump administration is working with some other reporters and some other journalists to get them to report some of this other information.
Let's just take a look here, guys.
And let's just look at these operations.
Again, film crews going around.
Let's start with clip 12. It's kind of like the Cops TV show, how they're doing this in a way.
Cops is like a top-rated TV show, so okay.
Fight fire with fire.
So guys, give me clip 12 and clip 10. And then clip 11. So we'll just show you.
So it's Holman kind of doing like a promo shoot in the vehicle.
And then it's he and Dr. Phil in the ICE Command Center breaking down how they find these people and they choose the most violent criminals and they can find where they're at.
Nobody's even trying until them.
And then the actual arrest of a convicted sex offender on the street.
They have email data, text data, and just can hit a button and just send out information.
And they can send out a location for you to go protest.
Or they can send out their propaganda.
And so they send out a piece of propaganda, and it says...
ICE is coming into classrooms, and they get it to these teachers that are signed on to these info threads, and these teachers say, oh, not my classroom, and they do this tough guy thing.
They're literally not going into the classrooms.
And in fact, you'll see, he explains, they decide, based off the data they have available, of how they want to take these people in, they want to make sure to avoid public spaces or a place that could become violent.
So that's what they're doing.
They just say, oh, these dirty, rotten, these dirty, rotten liberals get into these message threads and they say, hey, let's just tell people they're going into classrooms.
Yeah, let's tell people they're targeting innocent children in the classrooms and let's warn teachers that they're doing it.
And then the teachers will go tell their kids and then the kids will get our propaganda and then the teachers will post videos on TikTok.
They're probably paying them to do it.
And then all the people on TikTok will see it and they'll think, oh my gosh, this Trump administration is so brutish.
And what's happening to me, it seems, that these politicians...
Are creating what they fear the most, and that is forcing ICE agents into the community where they pick up the target and wind up picking up collaterals that may be around them as opposed to going to the jail where they just get the target and leave.
I'm not going to say what they are right now, because even describing it could be tipping off who we're talking about.
And if they happen to be watching this or somebody they know is watching this, could pick up the phone and call them and put agents' lives in more danger than they already are.
That's why we're asking all of you in the control room to process these videos and blur the faces of the brave men and women that are doing what they're doing, because we don't want them harassed and targeted after the fact.
And that has and does happen.
So we're being very careful to protect everybody out there.
But just know, whether you're seeing this on Merit TV or Merit...
...or all of our different social platforms, this narrative that they're out sweeping and picking up people indiscriminately is absolutely untrue.
Again, the downfall, the problem with the sanctuary city that people like us walk in the street rather than law enforcement working with federal agents, this is what we're dealing with.
They have to decide what they're going to publish and they have to go through the editing process of protecting all the agents involved and just other private stuff from getting out there.
Okay.
The one thing they could try to emphasize more And it's not even that I'm trying to Monday morning quarterback this because, I mean, I work in media.
I get it.
Especially when you're out live on the scene.
If you sit there and think about all the things you wish you would have done or could have done differently, you'll just go crazy.
But, so we'll emphasize it.
And you can tell Dr. Phil there is like trying to kind of hammer the point home briefly before they cut the camera feed.
But these are...
People that have been convicted or charged with sex crimes, many times against minors, and they're out walking the streets.
They're out walking the streets.
Not even citizens.
Not here legally.
Think about all the different implications here.
Who's paying for their lawyers?
Who are these judges, these district attorneys, letting them go?
Why aren't they in prisons?
Why aren't they waiting deportation?
But the answer here is obvious.
Because the Democrat Party wants them here and wants them on the streets.
So they get what they want.
Now ask yourself why.
Ask yourself why.
An entire political party that runs Chicago, pretty much all your major metropolitan areas, why would they want non-citizens, convicted sex offenders, gangbangers, the most violent types, why would they want them here and on the streets?
Now, Musk has taken notice to this, but the infrastructure here to get them into the country is mind-boggling, and we've done about as much work on this as anybody, but Data Republican went into the data and then published this flowchart that just makes it even crazier when you break down how all this money gets distributed.
307 billion plus dollars.
Let me repeat myself.
307 plus billion.
300 billion dollars in government funds flowing to a single address.
One company providing immigration-related services.
And then here's...
How the funds are distributed among the organizations at this location, which also reported 64 million in individual contributions.
This is an industry.
There is a whole entire economy, and the government did this intentionally.
They made an economy out of illegal immigration.
When you put hundreds of billions of dollars, I mean, what is that?
The GDP of probably most countries in the world.
It's an entire economy.
They created an entire economy out of illegal immigration.
Intentionally.
They knew exactly what they were doing.
Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service.
$221 million in government grants.
I mean, I can go down this list.
The flowchart's insane.
This is the CEO of a non-profit organization that was sent 300...
Million dollars of your tax dollars for immigration-related services seems like an excessive amount that Doge may want to look into.
Well, Elon Musk has taken attention to this now.
Krish.
Krish is the president and CEO of Global Refugee.
Ah.
She previously served in the Obama White House as policy director for First Lady Michelle Obama and the State Department as senior advisor.
Under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Secretary of State John Kerry.
So a dyed-in-the-wool leftist Democrat named Krish.
Wonder how many generations she's been in the country.
Running Global Refugee, making over $300 million a year and then distributing it to all these other groups that are making a nice chunk of change themselves.
All because the Biden administration wanted to turn this into an economy and make sure all of their friends are getting paid off and the invasion of the United States to lead to its collapse continues.
Well, we're shutting it down.
Cut all, cut all, not just all foreign aid, cut all aid to non-citizens.
I fight for D. I think she's just getting rid of the show wearing the sweats to school, too.
She might not have any other option, actually.
Oh, I'm tough.
I'm tough.
I'm standing up to ice.
Yeah, you're putting your hair up.
You're about to go eat a burrito in the teacher's lounge.
Then, though, this is the real stuff in clip 16. You guys could just play it here.
Go ahead and play it.
But this is the real stuff.
And we told you this was going to happen.
A group of a pretty strong-sized group.
It's definitely more than 100. Could be close to 1,000.
And they're blocking ICE in Chicago because they know where all the illegal immigrants are.
ICE was about to move in on an illegal immigrant stronghold.
So all these people took the streets and they got their signs.
Now they're all waving Mexican flags.
I just, you know, there's a mystery here to me.
And you can hear the F Donald Trump chant.
I don't get it.
I have no problem if you're...
First, second generation, whatever.
We'll use Mexico for the sake of the argument here since hundreds of Mexican flags are waving.
So I don't have any problem.
You're a Mexican-American and you still love Mexico and like wearing the colors or rooting for the soccer team or whatever.
Doesn't bother me.
You're a citizen.
You're not breaking the law.
You paid your dues and you got some pride from wherever your family came from originally.
Doesn't bother me at all.
What is this that you're going out in the streets waving a Mexican flag because what?
You don't want to see criminals deported?
Where is the disconnect here?
Where is the disconnect?
Well, it's not about logic or reasoning.
All of these people got the text from the Democrats.
All of these people got the email from the Democrats that said, meet at this location, at this time, on this date.
We're stopping ICE from going into this facility and deporting the illegal immigrants.
That's what happened here.
Now, again, trying to figure the motivation of I'm waving a Mexican flag.
If you don't love America, then what are you doing here?
If you think Mexico is better than America, then why are you?
I just don't understand these people's logic.
But it doesn't matter.
They're getting the orders.
The orders have gone out.
So what did I tell you?
You're not seeing the Black Lives Matter groups.
You're not seeing the Antifa groups.
It's going to be huge groups like this.
This is the big issue they got them motivated on.
They all wave Mexican flags.
It's like, I just don't get it.
And they're going to go out.
And they're going to go to these illegal immigrant strongholds, and they're going to get them out there by the hundreds, maybe the thousands, and they're going to try to block ICE from deporting people.
So that's how this is going to go.
Now, they're trying to motivate transviolence, but that's more of like an individual type thing.
They might be able to get some groups of protests every once in a while, but no.
This is their big move.
This is their big protest.
This is where all that liberal activism money is now being directed.
This is where everything is rolling downhill, everything going into this, getting these groups out by the hundreds, by the thousands, whatever, to block deportations.
And they say they're going into the classroom and they send out all their propaganda.
So get used to that.
Get used to that.
And they were out there for hours and they were harassing people.
That was in Dallas.
And they were harassing people driving by, slamming on their windows, because they love Mexico so much.
This is America, though.
So why are you waving the Mexican flag if these people are supposed to go back to Mexico, which isn't even the case?
Most of the illegal immigrants are not coming from Mexico.
So the whole thing is just clown world, really.
No point in even trying to break it down from a logical perspective.
These are people that now have the Democrat puppet operative hand up their butt.
And they're going to be going out and protesting wherever they're told, whenever they're told, to stop the deportations.
Now, a couple other stories revolving around this.
Remember about that big bust they did in Guatemala with all the sex trafficking and the minors involved in it?
Lev Tahor member arrested for human trafficking will be extradited to Mexico.
So that was Yoel Alter, who's a citizen of Israel.
And he was running this supposed cult with all the kids in it that was the subject of that massive bust.
Now he's being extradited to Mexico for trial.
Now I wonder, now this is all coming out of Guatemala.
And if you recall, we had the guest on from Guatemala, out of the Justice Department there, who said, Now that Trump's won, we're about to run all these operations.
We know where the trafficking is going on.
We know where the kids are being trafficked to.
We just haven't had the green light because the Biden administration is basically saying, if you move on these groups, then they're going to cut off the aid.
But they don't even care anymore.
Trump's president, they've got the green light.
And the guy came on this show and said, we're about to bust the child traffickers.
And then it was about a week or two later, they busted the Lev Tahor group.
And then this, I guess he was one of the leaders, Yoel Alter, who's now going to Mexico for his trial.
But I wonder if this wasn't part of a larger trafficking network.
In fact, I would bet that it was.
And that's why they want him extradited, and that's why they're investigating this guy.
Because they're coming from somewhere, and they're getting into Guatemala.
So they're coming from the south and then they're coming up through Panama and they're coming up through the forest.
And then some of them get caught up into this web and I guess they end up at this group or they end up being trafficked by this group or abused by this group.
So they're trying to get information out of this guy.
Cult members have staged protests and clashed with police in recent weeks over the separation of the minors.
A total of 148 minors have been separated from their parents, as confirmed by the Guatemalan Attorney General's office.
Alter, handcuffed and wearing long robes adopted by the cult, was taken to court and will be extradited to Mexico in the coming days.
Earlier this year, El Salvador announced the arrest of cult member Jonathan Emanuel Cardona Castillo, a 23-year-old from El Salvador who was wanted on an international arrest warrant.
And had fled El Salvador.
He is accused of severe child abuse.
Guatemalan authorities estimate that the group consists of 50 families hailing from Guatemala, the United States, and Canada.
But it's like shooting fish in a barrel.
You've got tens of thousands of these minors moving up the illegal immigrant pipeline.
The cartels are running a lot of it.
And then there's different wings of it.
There's different offshoots of it.
And so, okay, here's this latest train, a couple hundred thousand miners.
Overall, this one has a couple hundred.
Like, hey, a couple of them are going to end up in your compound.
You know what I'm saying?
You help us.
You facilitate us with this illegal immigrant pipeline.
And, you know, an unaccompanied miner or two gets left behind in your control.
But see, Trump's bad because he wants to stop that.
And you're xenophobic if you want to stop that.
And so we need to go out in the streets and wave Mexican flags.
And I'm a teacher.
I'm tough.
I'm standing up to ice.
No.
They're kidnapping children and putting them into sex trafficking rings.
I think this goes beyond just the illegal immigration thing.
But it is the human trafficking and everything else that's along with it.
And maybe they want to help Trump.
But the president of Honduras just called an emergency meeting of all Latin and Caribbean countries to figure out how to cope with President Trump after Colombia's tactics completely backfired.
Yeah, we'll show you Trump getting Colombia to take the knee.
An inside official told me that the meeting was called...
By instruction of the Colombian president using Honduras, Gustavo Petro is so scared of Trump that he doesn't even want his name to be seen.
One truth social post from President Trump is all it took.
I'll read that post for you.
The number one thing on the meeting agenda is migration, aka President Trump.
So they're rejecting their own citizens, but we're supposed to take them.
So.
Trump releases this statement.
I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States with a large number of illegal criminals were not allowed to land in Colombia.
This order was given by Colombia's socialist president Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people.
Petro's denial of these flights has jeopardized the national security and public safety of the United States.
So I've directed my administration to immediately take the following urgent and decisive retaliatory measures.
Emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States, and in one week the tariffs will be raised to 50%.
A travel ban and immediate visa revocations on the Colombian government officials and all allies and supporters.
Visa sanctions of all party members, family members, and supporters of the Colombian government.
Enhanced customs and border protection inspections of all Colombian nationals and cargo on national security grounds.
I wonder if that one scared him a little bit.
Other treasury, banking, financial sanctions opposed.
These measures are just the beginning.
We will not allow the Colombian government to violate its legal obligations with regards to the acceptance and return of these criminals they forced into the United States.
And then, what do we think this took, like hours, a couple hours later?
A couple hours later!
For immediate release, the government of Colombia has agreed to all of President Trump's terms, including the unrestricted acceptance of illegal aliens from Colombia returned from the United States, including on U.S. military aircraft without limitation or delay.
Colombia didn't want its own citizens back, but we're supposed to take them.
It would be catastrophic for them, but not for us.
Trump is standing up for America.
Trump is standing up for the American people.
And you've got these clowns crying on social media.
You have these cartoon characters that wear sweatpants to school because they're so fat.
This woman can't even fit in a pair of jeans, so she has to wear sweats with an elastic sweatband.
And she's gonna stand up to ice.
Bitch, you can barely stand up!
They don't even want their own citizens.
They say it's catastrophic.
Trump is standing up for us.
He's doing the right thing.
It's not going to be easy, but he's doing it.
And then he posted this image.
I wonder who sent this to us.
Generated by Grok.
Grok has its watermark on all of its images now.
The XAI. And it's Trump in, I guess, your stereotypical Italian mobster outfit, let's say, with the hat and the...
Jacket with the vest, and then behind it it says FAFO, which of course is F around and find out.
Trump posted that on his socials just after the Colombian government rescinded their rejection of their own citizens.
There you go.
It's nice to have a president that stands up for us.
So, if Trump wants to go have a round of golf after that victory, I'm okay.
Shoot him straight, President.
Shoot him straight.
Thank you for standing up for us.
Thank you for not allowing them to send criminals here and then reject them when we send them home.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Oh, and we'll cover this coming up next.
Thank you, Trump, for launching an investigation into January 6th and the January 6th political persecution.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Nice to have a president standing up for us, not standing against us like we've had for Joe Biden.
Very nice.
Very, very nice.
All right.
By the way, we do have some interesting information about January 6th.
We'll play a clip from Thomas Massey and Matt Gaetz talking about some of the latest intel that Massey just received.
So we got that coming up too.
All right.

They're trying to shut us down with the lawfare and the selling of the company.
By God's grace, we're still here.
And so we'll be here, hopefully, as long as it takes or forever.
But it's going to require your support.

I learned that backpack guy, January 6th backpack guy, not to be confused with January 5th backpack person, backpack guy was a non-uniform, plainclothes police officer in the employ of the Capitol Hill Police.
The person who found the pipe bomb, the person who, DeAntuano, who was leading the investigation, say, oh yeah, the person who found it, it'd be investigation 101 that they would be a suspect initially, until ruled out.
You're saying that person was an undercover, plainclothes, Capitol Police officer, and the Capitol Police confirmed that to you today?
It heightens some of my concerns and reduces some of the other concerns.
One of the concerns that's heightened was...
You know, trying to give the Secret Service and the Metro Police Department the benefit of the doubt when they took four minutes, you know, they finished their lunch before they went and dealt with this pipe bomb.
I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and think that, well, if it's just some random passerby and he said, hey, there's something shiny over there, could be a lawn sprinkler, you know, not sure, maybe want to check it out.
But that's not what it was.
It was a person who was, you know, they say.
Again, when I relate this to you, I'm relating what the Capitol Police have told me.
They say it was a Capitol Police officer who found this bomb and that he told them it was a bomb.
And he radioed it in, said, we've got the device.
We found another device.
Remember, here's the other just amazing timing.
The first pipe bomb, the one at the Capitol Hill Club, now they call it the RNC pipe bomb, but they really should be calling it the Capitol Hill pipe bomb.
The two buildings are next to each other, but it was like...
The reason I'm making that distinction is, Darren...
Beattie, who's done amazing work on this.
He's the guy who's said, hey, you should be asking some of these questions.
And I said, you know what?
You're right.
I will be asking those questions.
He points out that the RNC-DNC narrative was made up after the fact.
It was really the Capitol Hill Club-DNC narrative that they should be talking about.
But it just sounds a lot better that, oh, we knew to go look at the DNC once we found one at the RNC. Interesting.
Well, you thought somebody was going to blow up the RNC. Don't they hate Republicans?
Why would they also want to blow?
Anyways.
So, you know, they come down.
This plainclothes police officer who had been in the vicinity of that one, they had just found that.
The timing is remarkable because it was found five minutes before the breach of the bicycle racks at the perimeter of the Capitol.
Just a miraculous timing that, you know, would have provided.
Exactly the right timing to distract.
After sitting in an alley for 17 hours, found by somebody who says she was going to go do her laundry, they respond to that, they secure the area, and 15 minutes later they find this other bomb.
The assistant director in charge, he went on TV and said these were operable bombs and offered a reward, put out a message that they played on TV. In the beginning of my transcribed interview with him, he still maintained that they were operable.
Also, I see that you're cooperating with the FBI. So again, that's Massey and Gates talking about some of these latest revelations.
I think a lot is going to come out about this.
There's going to be a lot of intrigue here, but there's already some other news revolving around the January 6th investigations and political persecutions coming out of the Trump administration, including people being fired.
The ones that were persecuting Trump over January 6th have been fired.
fired and then maybe thrown in the jail.
But we'll have more on that information coming up.
Alright, government abuse is one of our biggest problems we face as Americans.
It's gone unchecked for so long.
That it's just become this overwhelming force.
Well, finally, there's a force against it, not just Donald J. Trump, the president, but hopefully Elon Musk, hopefully Doge, and some of the members of Congress involved as well.
And one important influence here, which has been doing great work, is the White Coat Waste Project.
And joining me now from the White Coat Waste Project is Justin Goodman.
And so, Justin, you know...
I don't even know where to start with you because there's so many things I think that would shock the American people if they knew where our government money was going, including some recent discoveries you guys have made and some, let's say, suggestions for Doge.
But I guess I just want to kind of start with the origin here.
White Coast Waste Project.
Why does it exist?
And I guess I would say, was it worse than you thought when you got involved with cleaning up the government?
Yeah, and I think COVID really was worse than anyone had possibly imagined and uncovered some really dark corners of the government in terms of reckless spending, both at home and abroad, that caused a pandemic and killed 20 million people.
But we got started because...
We were concerned that the U.S. government is the single largest funder of animal testing in the world, wasting about $20 billion a year on animal testing, both in the United States and foreign countries, China, Russia, Iran, other places, where there's unaccountable shady labs doing scary experiments.
And our founder and president actually worked in an animal laboratory.
And was so horrified by what he saw, he went and spent over a decade in Republican politics working on big defund campaigns, defund Planned Parenthood, defund Obamacare, and saw, oh, this is the way to get at the animal testing problem.
These establishment liberal groups have failed for decades.
The problem got worse because they haven't attacked the root of it, which is reckless government spending.
So he started White Coat Waste Project to attack the root of the problem.
Which is National Institutes of Health, people like Anthony Fauci doling out billions of dollars a year for sadistic, stupid, and in some cases deadly and very treacherous experiments like what we saw in Wuhan.
So we got our start about a decade ago.
And, you know, you and Roger and Infowars were actually very early adopters.
You know, we were on the show back in 2017 talking about one of our earlier campaigns to shut down government testing on dogs at the VA where they were giving puppies heart attacks by injecting latex into their arteries and forcing them to run on treadmills.
And actually, during the Trump administration, we made historic progress.
To cut reckless spending on animal testing, shut down a lab at the USDA where they were literally flying to wet markets in China, buying dog and cat meat, flying back to the United States in their carry-on luggage, and force-feeding dog and cat meat to kittens in a USDA lab in Washington, D.C., in cannibalism experiments.
The Trump administration shut that down.
They shut down nicotine testing on baby monkeys, all kinds of stupid and sick stuff that was happening at taxpayers' expense.
So we made great progress.
The Biden administration, unfortunately, rolled back some of that progress.
So we're hoping, you know, we have a four-point plan for the new administration to pick up where Trump left off when he left the White House in 2021 and start saving some animals and taxpayer dollars.
But what we're probably best known for now is our work to expose Fauci's funding for the Wuhan lab and for Beagle testing.
Early 2020, we were the first group to expose Fauci's funding for gain-of-function at the Wuhan lab and have been investigating that since and working with Congress, Rand Paul, other folks to defund not only that lab, but all gain-of-function, cut off laboratories in foreign countries and make sure we're not paying for our own demise and what happened in Wuhan doesn't happen again.
I also want to focus on maybe the compare and contrast from Biden.
to Trump, but I'd really like to hone in on this animal testing phenomenon, and the number is staggering.
I mean, $20 billion, it's like, how can, and maybe you can kind of shed some light on, how can it even reach such a massive number?
But I would go into more of the motivational factors here.
Now, I'll get a little conspiratorial, and then maybe you can kind of bring us back down to earth on this, but there was a couple moments of my life that I never Because it's very impactful on me.
And somebody I grew up listening to, he's considered a godfather of conservative talk radio, Michael Savage.
He talked about when he was younger, and he thinks it's part of kind of a program to see how far they can push you.
But basically, when he was younger, and he was studying to get his doctorate, they started to push him into animal labs and animal testing.
And he kept refusing and refusing.
And then eventually they came to him and they said, look, if you don't do this, you know.
You're cut off from this scientific community.
You're never going to get any upward growth.
We're going to bury you.
If you're not willing to come in here and do the animal testing, you're done.
And eventually he switched to talk radio, ironically enough.
But he kind of told it like he thought that that was them testing him to see what they could get him to do.
It's like if you can go into a lab and then get you to torture an animal or whatever and remove part of your soul, part of your humanity, then yeah, you'll do some gain of function and release it on the public, I guess.
And so that was kind of his conspiratorial take.
And the other moment, because it just kind of all goes back to this, because I just think it's true.
I remember I was a kid, probably like four or five years old, going to a small Catholic preschool.
I climbed onto this playground and I jumped off the top of it and I landed on this anthill because I wanted to smash a bunch of ants.
And the sister sees me do that and she comes and grabs me by the scruff of my neck and gives me a reaming.
Like, I'd never had at school before basically saying, you don't do this to innocent animals.
You never do.
Like, you know, teaching me a little lesson.
And it always stuck with me because I was like, you know, she's right.
Do you think there's something to that?
Or what is the motivation for $20 billion in animal testing?
You know, that $20 billion is paying people to import and breed monkeys.
To breed tens of thousands of puppies and kittens every year just to be tortured in laboratories, millions of other animals to breed them, to transport them, to build the cages, to build the torture devices, to build the laboratories.
There's a lot of people lying in their pockets.
And ultimately, the only people benefiting from that $20 billion are the people getting paid to do experiments.
It's not improving public health.
So it's a fraud on the American public.
But to what you were saying about Michael Savage, I've had the pleasure and honor of being on his show to talk about this stuff before.
And that's similar to the kind of origin story of our organization, is our president thought he was going to go into medical, in the medical field, to be a doctor.
His dad's a dentist, and he thought, I'm going to go to medical school.
And his dad got him this internship with a friend.
He had no idea what the internship was going to be.
Turns out he shows up and they're torturing pigs in cardiac and heart attack experiments.
And he was just horrified by what he saw and thought, this isn't the field for me.
You know, if this is what it's about, this isn't what I'm going to spend my life doing.
This isn't the type of person I am.
But I think there is this process of desensitization that starts.
Where they do test you.
You know, when it kind of starts, you know, you can think about classroom dissection, and if you can get past that, then you might end up as an undergrad working in an animal lab.
Decapitating mice all weekend is your kind of part-time job, which is actually a common thing that students do.
And then you end up at some point, like Anthony Fauci, giving chimps HIV and AIDS with his own hands.
You know, I think people don't realize, you know, Fauci wasn't just a paper pusher who sent money to laboratories.
I mean, he was personally involved in infecting animals with deadly diseases until the day he left the NIH. And he created a culture there where that was just so normalized and there was so much money for it.
That he had these little kind of, you know, he had this little fiefdom where there were laboratories all around the world that relied on him for funding and support and endorsements.
And that's how he became, you know, who he was.
And, you know, he really exploited 9-11.
That's really where his big money came from is after the, you know, when the war on terror started, he started with the defense department fear mongering about.
Anthrax attacks and that we had to do all this research to preempt those things.
And that's really where the gain-of-function problem started.
That's wild.
I think these people are created.
I don't think people are born thinking I'm going to give mice coronaviruses, humanize mice coronaviruses, and inject fetal tissue into them.
I think that that's something that people get desensitized to do.
And then you end up with folks who are pretty sociopathic.
Well, and I think when you look at Fauci's record, going back to the AIDS pandemic and forcing them to take the medicine that didn't work and would ultimately lead to their demise instead of the stuff that they knew worked.
They did a whole movie about it called the Dallas Buyers Club.
And then the anthrax thing and then the gain of function and the COVID. I mean, this guy's track record.
It's about as bad as it gets when it comes to individuals involved in medicine, and I suppose that's why Biden gave him the preemptive pardon.
Maybe he thought the American people or the presidential administration would do something about him, finally.
But do they even try to justify this stuff?
I guess that's what I'm asking here.
Do they even have any justification at all?
Do they say it's for trying to discover this or trying to research that?
I mean, do they even try justification for this stuff?
Well, of course they do, and it's all based on fear-mongering.
It's that you're going to die, your family's going to die, people around the world are going to die if we don't torture animals.
But, you know, if you look at what the, you know, so these agencies are in front of Congress, people like Fauci are in front of Congress begging for money to expand animal labs and do more animal testing.
The NIH has a $50 billion budget.
It spends almost half of it on animal testing.
So it's begging for this money.
On one hand, not the other side of its mouth.
On the other hand, it's admitting constantly that this stuff doesn't work.
It's actually not improving human health.
It's a huge waste.
But a lot of people have built their careers on it.
People like Anthony Fauci.
I mean, he got his start in the 80s literally caging chimps and infecting them with HIV and saying, if we give enough chimps HIV, they're going to get AIDS and we're going to have an AIDS vaccine in a few years.
We still don't have an AIDS vaccine 40 years later.
It was a lie.
Animal testing is a lie.
It's just a big business now.
And unfortunately, taxpayers are footing the bill.
Two-thirds of all animal testing in this country is paid for by taxpayers.
And that's how you get things like the infamous beagle testing that Fauci funded in Tunisia, where that iconic photo that we exposed in 2021, where you have those beagles with their heads locked in those mesh cages being eaten alive by sand flies for vaccine experiments.
And worse things that are still happening.
Fauci's gone from government, but hundreds of millions of dollars that he put into play when he was still at the NIH is currently being spent on torturing dogs and cats and other animals in the federal government.
I mean, listen, regardless of what people think about him, he demonstrably violated the law a number of times by lying to Rand Paul and other members of Congress in these congressional hearings under oath about facts that are easily verifiable.
right?
So he repeatedly said to Rand Paul at different times during different hearings under oath, we never funded gain-of-function in Wuhan.
Our organization not only knew that from the beginning that he funded gain-of-function in Wuhan, but we got the emails where Peter Daszak and EcoHealth conspired with the NIH during the federal gain-of-function ban in 2016 in email.
He conspired to violate the ban and say, how can we redefine what we're doing so it doesn't fall under this gain-of-function ban?
Then they sent the money to him, and that's the experimentation where they took these bat coronaviruses and souped them up and put them in humanized mice and created COVID. So he lied about not funding gain-of-function.
The NIH actually ultimately admitted that they funded gain-of-function at Wuhan, so he repeatedly lied about that.
And then he also lied about not using his personal emails.
For government business.
And there's extensive evidence of that.
His deputy, David Morens, has all these now notorious emails where he talks about coordinating with the FOIA lady at NIH to violate FOIA and hide emails and delete emails.
But we actually got a copy of an email that Fauci personally sent to a Washington Post reporter who was trying to help him cover up the Beagle testing.
And in this email, he literally said, Please contact me at my personal Gmail to discuss this.
Obviously, the CIA just a couple days ago finally admitted.
Obviously, a few days after Trump took office, they finally came out and said, we do think that the coronavirus pandemic started in the Wuhan lab.
So I think we're going to get more and more clarity and pretty quickly because people want to get answers and they want accountability and they want people like Fauci to pay for what happened.
Yeah, I mean, I think Trump definitely doesn't get enough credit for all the good he did to end animal testing.
I mean, I would say there's more progress made under the Trump administration to get animals out of laboratories than in any other administration in history.
He shut down the federal government's largest cat lab, that cat lab I was talking about, shut it down, adopted out the cats.
That's something that had never been done before.
Two of them went to live with our president, Delilah and Petit.
He shut down this FDA nicotine lab, sent those monkeys to a sanctuary in Florida where they're all still living.
He ended VA dog testing and signed legislation to defund that program.
You know, people need to understand the Wuhan lab.
We all know what that is.
That's an animal testing lab where they were taking bats from the wild, bringing them into the lab, getting coronaviruses from those animals, and then infecting humanized mice with those viruses.
And that's how they created the coronavirus that caused the pandemic.
And he did that just a couple days after we exposed that funding with Congressman Matt Gaetz and Tucker Carlson.
Trump went on TV famously during the coronavirus briefing and said, we're cutting that.
That's tremendous waste.
We're going to be ending that grant.
And he did.
And one other thing he did, and then I'll get to what happened during Biden, is Trump's EPA director, Andrew Wheeler, who's a good friend of ours on our advisory board, he put in place the first ever plan at a federal agency to eliminate all animal testing.
He put a plan in 2019. He said, by 2035, the EPA is going to be out of the animal testing business.
A couple months after Biden takes office, after Biden's EPA director told Congress that during his confirmation hearings he would continue that work to end animal testing, they completely killed Trump's plan to phase out animal testing by 2035. They tried to restart the kitten tests that we shut down at the USDA. They tried to increase funding for testing on primates.
They tried to restart.
Dog and cat testing in the Department of Veterans Affairs.
And we were able to successfully fight back in a number of those cases.
But, yeah, the problem was getting worse, not better under Biden.
I think people were, for whatever reason, were on the impression things were going to get better because he's a Democrat.
He's supposed to care about these things.
But the problem got worse.
The NIH budget went up.
Spending went up.
Obviously, Fauci wasn't held accountable all these years.
It's taken us five years to find out what happened with COVID. The Biden administration, despite federal law being signed by the president, refused to release classified documents about what happened in Wuhan and the origin of COVID. So things were looking pretty bleak.
So we're thrilled now that Trump's back.
We're working with Roger Stone again.
I was just on his show last night talking about some of the work we're going to do together.
But we have a four-point plan for the Trump administration where they can save $20 billion.
It's real simple.
Cut dog and cat labs.
Again, you're talking about things everyone can agree on.
We shouldn't be funding the torture of puppies and kittens in laboratories in the U.S. and abroad.
Cut off labs in China.
There's still 26 animal labs in China that the NIH is funding and other agencies are funding.
We're funding gain-of-function.
And working with the Wuhan lab to do that, or experimenters associated with the Wuhan lab to do gain-of-function research on bird flu.
Now we're doing that.
We shouldn't be doing that either.
So defund dog and cat labs, cut off Chinese animal labs, reinstate the EPA's animal test and phase-out plan from the Trump administration.
And lastly, abolish NIAID, completely abolish Anthony Fauci's NIH division.
And that's the way to remove his fingerprints from the government and kill this.
Disgusting legacy of his is just to abolish that agency altogether.
It has a $6.5 billion budget.
Just his subdivision of the NIH has a $6.5 billion annual budget.
And that's what's funding, you know, transgender animal experiments, gain of function.
A lot of these nasty dog and cat labs are all being funded by Fauci's division.
So that's our four recommendations.
Where they could easily save billions of dollars and millions of animals.
It's got widespread support.
unidentified
We're working, you know, Roger Stone, Senator Joni Ernst, MTG. Well, and it sounds like, have you guys already done the legwork on this?
You've covered a lot of it here in a 25-minute segment, and I'd like to bring you back.
We're up against a break here.
If you could do five more minutes on the other side of this break to kind of just focus on the Doge aspect of this, because obviously Joni Ernst, Rand Paul, people that the White Coast Waste Project has worked with in the past.
I want to know what your take on Doge is and how much fervor they have to really make this thing work, if it's like the fervor that you guys have had to eliminate some of this animal testing.
But this should be, I mean, really, I look at this story and I say, what's taking so long?
This should be done within a month, and I'm being gracious.
I think we're giving more than enough time to say $20 billion cut, and all you do is save a bunch of animals from being tortured?
I mean, where's the downside there?
$20 billion.
We've done enough animal testing, it's led to absolutely nothing, except a bunch of sick freaks like Anthony Fauci getting more power and enriching themselves.
So that's something I'd say needs to be done ASAP. But I want to ask my guest, Justin Goodman, from the White Coast Waste Project, just where he thinks Doge is going and how much confidence he has in the people he's working with to actually do the job.
We'll be right back.
unidentified
Trigger warning.
This broadcast contains subject matter that might trigger liberal snowflakes.
All right, I just wanted to follow up here with Justin Goodman from the White Coast Waste Project about his thoughts on DOGE. And in a way, I mean, the White Coast Waste Project was kind of DOGE before DOGE, but I guess now it would be maybe considered like a wing of DOGE, just getting into lab waste and wasting the...
The medical bureaucracies.
Doge, obviously, a much bigger umbrella than that.
But, you know, you've met with some of the same people that are going to be paramount in making sure that Doge can do what we want it to do, like Joni Ernst and Rand Paul.
So I just wanted to kind of get your take here on Doge, what you think about it, and, I mean, how much confidence do you have that it's going to be successful?
I mean, is Joni Ernst peddled to the metal on this?
Or is it kind of politics as usual?
Say one thing and then leave town and forget about it?
So yeah, to your point, Doge is in our DNA as an organization.
We've been cutting wasteful spending for a decade, wasteful government spending for a decade on animal testing.
And one of the big impediments is bureaucracy, red tape.
And a lack of political will, particularly at these federal agencies that are full of, you know, these career scientists and career officials who just, no matter who's in the White House, they're there, you know, pushing paper and keeping the machine chugging along.
Now, that's why I'm excited to see Trump getting in here in his first week slashing and burning everywhere because we've got to get rid of some of these folks who have been impediments to progress.
Now, what Doge does...
I think, and again, we'll see, I think it remains to be seen exactly what they'll accomplish, but it does give a framework and legitimacy and kind of a home base for these efforts that, you know, Rand Paul puts out his Festivus Waste Report every year right before Christmas, and we work with him every year to put in examples of wasteful spending on animal testing.
We've had, you know, this year we had a bunch of examples of cat testing, Fauci-funded COVID experiments on cats, a $10 million DOD project where they're Shoving marbles up cats' butts and then electroshocking them for constipation experiments.
An NIH project where they're putting cats on these hydraulic tables and repeatedly spinning them around to make them nauseous and motion sickness tests.
So Rand Paul's been doing his thing for a long time.
Senator Joni Ernst also.
We've been really proud to work with her.
We've exposed and stopped a lot of waste by Fauci, even when he was still at the NIH. And she, you know, her famous platformer, she came to Washington to make them squeal and cut government waste.
And she's been doing that on her own as well.
Now, what Doge is, again, it's kind of like an umbrella for all these people to gather under.
White Coat Waste, Senator Joni Ernst, Rand Paul, people like Nancy Mace, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Nicole Naliatakis, all these other folks we work with, gives us a place to all kind of coordinate those efforts.
And gives the government a stake in doing it if they want this program, Doge, to be successful.
So I'm cautiously optimistic.
Doge, again, I don't know what's going to happen with it, but that's kind of a dream agency for our organization to have people in the government who are actually looking to make things more efficient and cut waste.
It's kind of been an afterthought until now by any government.
It's been a talking point.
Hopefully it becomes more than a talking point now.
I mean, I think he maybe has scaled back a little bit, but his promise that it was that he would cut $2 trillion.
I forget how long over, maybe the first year or something like that, they were going to try to cut $2 trillion.
But we'll see, you know, and a lot of the programs we're targeting and have been targeting are things that other organizations and other kind of interest groups.
I've also been looking at, not necessarily for the animal testing part of it, but gain-of-function is something that unites people who are interested in biosafety and just virus engineering and the kind of perils of that, transgender animal experiments, human fetal tissue experiments.
I mean, most of the stuff being done with aborted human fetus parts, 90% of those experiments involve animal testing, taking fetal scalps or organs.
We exposed one.
They were taking baby fetus fingers and implanting them into mice.
Fully behind you here, Justin Goodman, White Coat Waste Project.
Appreciate that.
And it's just good to have people like that applying the pressure internally.
You can kind of tag team it, get some of the media pressure, and then hopefully we can get a lot of this stuff done.
Really.
I mean, $20 million just to stop testing on animals.
Shouldn't be that hard, really.
Shouldn't be that hard.
Just a matter of getting Trump's ear.
Applying the pressure?
I'm sure it'll get done.
But we'll continue to monitor that.
All right, when I come back here, we're going to talk about some more success from the first week of Trump's administration and some of the announcements that they've made.
The final battle is coming up towards the end of next month.
Federal courts are going to decide whether we get sold to the Bloomberg Group or whether they let Patriots buy InfoWars and we continue on.
But regardless, the final run, potentially, of X2 that is so incredible, the purest, best atomic iodine out there has just come in at InfoWarsStore.com for 25% off.
This could be your last chance to get X2, but regardless, fans love it.
It's back in, so you can get it.
And for those that haven't tried it, Get your X2 now, right now, at Infowarsstore.com.
Every order that comes in will be shipped out regardless.
We're not getting shut down for at least a month, so this is your last chance to get X2 at Infowarsstore.com.
X2 is one of the most amazing products, if not the most amazing, we've ever had at Infowars.
I terminated the ridiculous and incredibly wasteful Green News scam, one of the great scams in history.
Actually, isn't it 12 years up?
They gave us 12 years to live, right?
I think that we passed it, right?
It's still around.
Can you believe it?
You know, the person that really came up with it is a person that never even took a course on the environment.
He's a poor student, not a good student, didn't understand a lot.
And she came up with this idea, and everybody all of a sudden started going.
And then mainstream, you know, important Democrat leaders were starting, you know, they got sucked into it.
And we've spent trillions of dollars on just, like, throwing it out the window.
You could throw it out the window, you would have been better off.
I withdrew from the one-sided Paris Climate Accord, and I canceled.
It was so one-sided.
You know, we had obligations, but Russia didn't.
China didn't.
Other countries didn't.
We paid everything.
We're going to lose a trillion dollars over a short period of time on that.
And we had to do everything.
They didn't have to do anything.
Ridiculous.
And I canceled the insane and very costly electric vehicle mandate.
So you can buy a car of your choice.
If you like gasoline, go have it.
And if you like hybrids, hybrids are doing well.
We can have it.
Or you can buy an electric car.
We like electric.
We like everything, but you have to have a right to buy everything.
I withdrew from the World Health Organization, where we paid $500 million a year, and China paid just $39 million a year, despite a much larger population.
How about that?
So we're paying $500 million a year.
China's paying $39 million a year.
They have 1.4 billion people.
We have nobody knows what we have.
So many people came across the border.
Nobody has any idea.
I used to say like 325, but we really don't know.
But we're going to know soon.
We're going to know.
And I tell you, our people are doing it.
Tom Holman and his staff are doing an incredible job getting the bad ones out.
I declared a national energy emergency to unlock the liquid gold that's right under our feet because we will drill, baby, drill.
We're going to drill, baby, drill.
It's going to bring down prices.
Your energy costs are going to go way down, and that'll happen, I think, relatively quickly.
I'm going to give fast environmental approval for anybody building a plant for electric generation, and anybody that invests more than $1 billion will get super rapid approval.
Not that they have to wait for 9 years, 14 years, like I approved LNG plants in Louisiana.
They were waiting for so many years.
It wasn't Louisiana's fault.
It was some people, they just wouldn't get them done.
You've got a snail here, a tiny tree here.
And I got it done in a matter of a few days.
I actually got it done.
It took them 14 years.
I got it done in about three days.
The people, as we called them, I'll never forget, I called them and I said, congratulations, you got your permit.
And they spent about $16 billion on each plant, and they've been roaring since then.
But we got them done in a matter of a few days.
Over the past week, we've begun the largest deregulation campaign in history, far exceeding even the record-setting efforts.
That was record-setting deregulation.
And that was just as big as tax cuts as far as business and jobs were concerned, I'll tell you.
I actually asked, you know, it's interesting because I actually asked some of the biggest businessmen in the country.
I said, let me ask you, would you, have you had the choice between the big tax cuts?
You know, we cut it from 40% to 21%.
We're going to cut it further.
But we cut it down to 20. Everybody said that would be impossible.
The people on the stage helped us with that one a lot.
But I said, have you had your choice of that or the big deregulation cuts?
What would you take?
These are the guys that run the big companies, the big oil companies, the big companies of every kind.
I said, would you take the big tax cut or the big cut in regulations?
And I've never had anybody said they'll take the tax cut.
They took the regulation cut.
I'll bet I asked that question a hundred times to a hundred of the biggest people.
They always, Tom, they always said, sir, we'll take the regulation cut.
You opened us up.
You let us create all these jobs that we've...
All seen happen.
So it was even bigger than the big tax cut.
I also signed an order to end the weaponization of our government against the American people and investigate all abuses of power.
And I stopped government censorship once and for all, and we brought back free speech to America.
That's what happened.
We're gonna burn it back.
We didn't have free speech.
We didn't have free speech.
I mean, I was investigated more than any human being in history.
Alphonse Capone was a baby.
Now, this was a serious killer, Scarface.
You've all heard of Scarface.
He had a scar for a reason.
He didn't play games, but he was Scarface.
Of course, nobody ever called him Scarface to his face.
They said, Al, you look great today.
I had a scar that was like two inches thick that ran from here to here.
They said, Al, you look fantastic.
But Scarface was not investigated as much as your president was investigated.
And it turned out to be a positive thing for me.
Can you believe it?
It turned out to be...
We got a lot of votes.
I think we got a lot of votes because they saw it was weaponization.
It was a fight against a political opponent.
I ordered the end to all of the lawless diversity, equity, and inclusion nonsense policies across the government and all across the private sector and the military.
We got it.
We're getting it out, and we've gotten it out pretty much.
And who would have thought that was going to happen?
We didn't even talk about that one because I figured that one was going to be toughest to get.
And so we are now, if you do a meritorious job, if you do something where you've done just...
You're just outstanding.
You advance.
And that's what it's about.
It's about competition, and it's about a lot of things.
And the other becomes a very dangerous plateau.
We were on that plateau too long, and it's one of the reasons that you saw very bad things happening with our country.
I made it the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female.
Gee, that was a tough one.
That was a tough one.
Some of these people say, like, seven genders.
I'm trying to say, go and name them.
I got some weird stuff going on.
No, we got two genders.
I renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America, and we are restoring the name of a great president, William McKinley, to Mount McKinley in Alaska in honor of the incredible people of the state of Ohio who loved their governor and loved the man that became president.
He was the big tariff sheriff, they used to call him, and made a lot of money.
Our country became very rich.
And when he was assassinated, Teddy Roosevelt became president.
And he spent all of that money that was made from tariffs.
The money was so enormous.
And they built a thing called the Panama Canal.
You might have read about this lately.
It's become a hot subject because China essentially has taken it over.
And we're not going to let that happen.
We're not going to let that happen.
It was the biggest investment.
To this day, ever made by the country.
In other words, if you bring it up to modern day numbers, we spent money that we've never spent anything so much.
We've never had so many people die.
38,000 people died building the Panama Canal 110 years ago.
And they gave it away for $1.
It's also one of the most profitable things ever built.
You know, ships are lined up back to Florida trying to get through.
We're not going to let that happen.
It wasn't the deal.
We didn't give it to China.
We gave it to Panama, sort of, I guess.
But they haven't behaved properly.
Perhaps most importantly, I declared a national emergency to stop the invasion of our southern border.
That they could do this to our country is so horrible.
But he said there's nobody there.
And then they actually put it on television.
I got to see it.
And there was literally not one person in this vast area where people stay there all day long and they just walk right into our country.
It's just unchecked.
No way.
No.
Check in for ideas like voter ID. They don't want voter ID because they want to cheat.
They wanted these people to come in because they want to cheat too.
But who could allow this to happen?
But there wasn't one person standing in this mess of an area that's like five football fields that was packed for years under these horrible people that wanted to kill our country.
We halted all illegal entry.
We have successfully ended catch and release.
And we're deporting 100% of all new trespassers apprehended at the border.
And nobody's coming in.
And nobody's coming now because they know they're not going to be able to come in.
So we've really stopped something that was very, very serious.
But we have to get the bad ones out.
We have many murderers, many very bad people in our country that they've allowed because of a ridiculous, actually stupid, open border policy.
I've also deployed troops to the border, and for the first time in history, we're locating and loading illegal aliens into military aircraft and flying them back to the places from which they came.
And very importantly, America is respected again.
We're respected again.
Isn't that nice?
After years of laughing at us like we're stupid people.
And as you saw yesterday, we've made it clear to every country that they will be taking back our people that we're sending out, the criminals, the illegal aliens coming from their countries.
We're taking them back, and they're going to take them back fast.
And if they don't, they'll pay a very high economic price, and we're going to immediately install massive tariffs.
It will be placed on them and other sanctions, but the tariffs, I told you, most beautiful word in the dictionary.
I also told you that I said that the first time, and I got just absolutely decimated by the fake news, you know?
I said, it's the most beautiful word, and the fake news said, what about religion?
So now I say it's the fourth most favorite word in the dictionary.
It's God, love.
It's all these other things, but I say number four, but God, love, religion, power, fourth.
Another couple of weeks, it'll be like 10. Hopefully, it's going to stay in the top 10. But the fake news went after me, Tom, because I didn't say the first three.
Throughout the week, the heroes of ICE have been hunting down and arresting hundreds of illegal alien criminals per day, including those with charges.
And convictions for rape, child sexual assault, terrorism, and even murder.
Many murders in the crowd, and many, many of these murderers have committed far more than one murder.
This is not going to work out, and we're going to get them the hell out of here.
Members of the savage Venezuelan prison gang known as Tren de Agua and MS-13, including 50 violent individuals who were rounded up in Aurora, Colorado, which...
The Venezuelan gang took over.
The governor, who's a radical left governor, was petro.
He didn't know what to do.
He said, no, it's not that bad.
They've only taken over a couple of apartment houses.
See, they went into the real estate business.
They did it unconventionally.
They did it with guns.
We have to go out and borrow or use cash to buy.
They just did it with guns.
They took over.
He said, no, it's not that bad.
They only took over a couple of buildings.
We're tracking down the illegal alien criminals.
We're detaining them and we are throwing them the hell out of our country.
We have no apologies and we're moving forward very fast.
They're very dangerous people.
They're very dangerous people.
They're violent people.
I used to say these are more violent than our criminals.
In fact, the best part about them is they make our criminals look quite nice, actually, by comparison.
They're very violent people.
We also have many violent criminals in our country, however, that did not necessarily come here illegally, but have been arrested 30 times, 35 times, 41, 42 times in a couple of cases, 25 times, 18 times, many for murder and other heinous charges, such as pushing people into subways.
As the train's coming along at 45 miles an hour, boom, you get pushed into the subway.
They had it last week.
Hitting them in the head with baseball bats while they're not looking.
Punching old ladies in the face, knocking them unconscious and stealing their purse.
They even break into apartments and rape elderly women and beat up elderly men, beat them to hell.
But if that would have happened, you would have had a lot less fentanyl deaths, I can tell you.
You would have had very little fentanyl coming into the southern border.
Last week, I also signed an order that will designate the cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
That's a very big designation.
And as we are fighting hard to get birthright citizenship or automatic citizenship for the children of illegal aliens, that's another way.
It's automatic citizenship for children of illegal aliens.
That's the other term that they use, which is actually more accurate, more understandable.
And it's ridiculous.
We're the only country that has it, and certainly the only country that has it to that extent.
And it wasn't meant, if you look.
It was really meant for children of slaves.
This is when it happened, the children of slaves.
It was not meant for everyone to come into our country by airplane or charging across the borders from all over the world and think they're going to become citizens.
It's not meant for that.
It wasn't meant for that.
And hopefully at some point the courts will understand that without having to go through a whole big deal.
This was meant for the children of slaves.
And look at the timing of it and you'll see.
And I hope judges will understand that.
And it has to stop because it's really hurting our country very badly.
In the coming weeks, I'm looking forward to working with Congress on a reconciliation bill that financially takes care of our plans to totally and permanently restore the sovereign borders of the United States once and for all.
This should include full funding for a record increase in border security personnel and retention bonuses for ICE and Border Patrol.
These people are incredible people.
I got to know them so well.
I was on the phone with them all the time when I was president.
When she was the border czar, she never called them.
Remember?
We went like four years and they started asking her, did you ever speak to her?
No.
We asked the Border Patrol, did you ever speak to the head of the Border Patrol?
Did you ever speak to the vice president who is your border czar?
No, I never got to speak to her.
This was a terrible thing that was going on.
This was a con job.
We also need a massive increase in the number of detention beds and funding for all border security, infrastructure, and barriers, including the completion of the border wall.
We did 500 miles of wall, and that's one of the reasons we had the lowest number.
You remember the famous chart that I looked to my right, bring down the chart, and I looked to my right, and something went right by he.
But that chart, I don't know if they have it now, frankly.
I didn't tell them to bring it.
But they're very competent people.
They might.
If you have the chart, put it up.
If you don't, that's okay, too.
But that chart showed that we had the lowest number of illegals coming into our country in history.
And I loved the chart.
Even if it didn't show that, I would have loved that chart.
Because that chart, I wouldn't be here right now without that particular chart.
But it was pretty amazing.
It was pretty, really amazing.
And we did a great job.
The week I left office, we had the lowest number of illegal immigrants coming into our country that we ever had.
Simultaneously, we must make a record investment in interior enforcement, including deportation flights and aircraft, as well as funding for our new task force to eradicate the presence of foreign gangs.
We have some of the worst foreign gangs.
Not even believable.
And criminal networks that have brought devastating crime to American soil.
We're getting them all out.
We're getting them all out.
I won on that, you know.
It's like some people explain it very well.
They say, gee whiz, you know, they look at the people.
As you know, in Colombia, they agreed with us almost immediately after I got involved.
And Marco Rubio and I worked together.
He did a great job.
And we really did.
And Mike Waltz, we have a great group of people.
Being scolded because we had them in shackles in an airplane.
And he said, this is no way to treat people.
Now, you've got to say, these are murderers, drug lords, gang members, just the toughest people you've ever met or seen.
How would you like to be the pilot of a plane?
You've got two pilots up there, and you've got 300 people sitting in a plane.
Every one of them, either a murderer, a drug lord, a kingpin of some kind, a head of the mob.
You're not going to see diversity, equity, and inclusion in those documents.
In fact, equity comes up once in the Constitution, once talking about justice in the judicial system.
That's it.
One time.
So no, diversity, equity, and inclusion are not American values.
They are simply not.
They are not.
American values are freedom, independence, liberty, sovereignty, prosperity, even equality.
These are American values.
These are words you'll find in our founding documents.
Not diversity, equity, and inclusion.
So that's what the Democrats are trying to do.
They want to replace actual American values, freedom, prosperity, and equality, and they want to replace it with diversity, equity, and inclusion, which has zero...
Zero bearing in the founding of this country and are not American values.
Those are liberal progressive Democrat values that they will use to destroy this country and they already have.
No, you're a free American.
You're a citizen of this republic.
You have a right and a duty to self-government.
And they just want you to forget about it and they want you to lay down while the clown mayor says you're not even allowed to go look at your own property.
I got too much news to cover in this final segment to stay on that topic so much, but let me explain why I'm so passionate about this in conclusion here.
I know that the power actually Lies within you, the American citizen.
But unless you actually take it back from the system, then you will never have it.
And so that's this whole concept of the bureaucracy dominating over you and the local officials and the power of the badge and the mayor's podium and the seal and everything else.
Trash it.
It's garbage.
You're in control.
This is a republic under God.
And just because some mayor says you can't go to your house, that's bullcrap.
And so this fear that we have of the illegitimate power, this fear that we have of these bureaucracies, it's time to just do away with it for good.
Get rid of it, flush it down the toilet, throw it in the trash bin.
And that's it.
You're free again.
And it's just, there's no better example of it to me than what you're seeing in Los Angeles.
And I promise you, whatever little pain you have to go through in that moment of resistance, that moment of, dare I say, rebellion, whatever little pain, whatever process you have to go through, it will be much worse if they conquer you.
It will be much worse if you're turned into an actual slave with no rights.
It just drives me nuts.
To see these poor people who have lost everything.
Because of government incompetence, by the way.
Because of that damn mayor, you lost everything.
Because of that damn mayor, your house burned down.
And now she's going to tell you you can't go into the area?
But my primary concern as the Vice President, Margaret, is to look after the American people.
And now that we know that we have vetting problems with a lot of these refugee programs, we absolutely cannot unleash thousands of unvetted people into our country.
Of course, China's denying it, but that's not going to work this go-around.
They had blackmail on the Bidens.
They had blackmail on Anthony Fauci.
The Ukrainian bio labs, Fauci's direct involvement in Wuhan.
So the last administration couldn't really move on this.
China had blackmail on all of them so they could come out and say, nope, not us, not our lab leak.
And then behind closed doors, by the way, you know, if you say anything about this, Biden, maybe we'll make sure that you taking all the millions of dollars from us makes it out there.
Maybe we'll make sure Hunter Biden's little bio labs in Ukraine gets out there, too.
So but now this is a bark with no bite.
So, no, it did come from a Wuhan lab, and now there's going to be major court cases and court decisions, and China may pay for it.
Maybe Fauci goes to prison for it.
Even with his little pardon.
No, this, you want to know why eggs are expensive?
Bird flu kills 20 million chickens in the United States, driving egg prices sky high.
No, it's not the bird flu.
It's the U.S. government.
That's what it is.
The U.S. government has been moving in.
The USDA, the Department of Agriculture, has been moving into these things.
And I mean, look, I'd like to know how they're doing it.
Could it be like a COVID test?
How many people remember this?
For those that don't, you could COVID test a cantaloupe.
It would test positive for COVID. You could test a can of Coke.
It would test positive for COVID. Because they rigged the tests.
So that they could drive the test results up and drive the fear-mongering up.
Now, is that the same thing they're doing on these farms with bird flu?
I don't know.
Maybe a farmer knows that.
Maybe somebody that works at the USDA knows that.
But they'll test one.
If they get a positive result from one bird, then they just kill the entire thing.
And they just say, oh, well, we've got to kill millions of birds now.
That's why eggs are up.
That's why chicken is up.
U.S. egg industry sees record chicken deaths from bird flu outbreak.
And then, so where does the bird flu come from?
Who's testing for this?
How many chickens have been forced to be put down by the government mandate?
And then here's the feds paying millions of dollars back to these farms where they had all the chickens killed.
This is from the official government data right here.
So there's a bigger story behind this, and this is why the egg prices are up.
Not because of Trump, but because of federal policy.
I mean, it's not even really because of Biden.
It's just federal policy.
But I don't know.
I could see them doing a pandemic this year or next year.
Bird flu outbreak.
All of England and Scotland placed under mandatory biosecurity zone as cases surge.
So they've been building this up.
Bill Gates just came out and said we're going to have a pandemic.
So I could see them doing this all again to scuttle Trump, cause fear, bring back the next mRNA injections.
So we'll be here for you to make the best.
Decisions you can with the information.
Like we warned people about the last vaccines.
And you know, there's all this debate online about what's in the vaccines, what's not in the vaccines, what they're supposed to do or what they might do and all this stuff.
And you know, it's just nice because I don't have to worry about any of that.
They're terrified because Trump is either going to make them work for the American people or fire them if they don't.
It must be tough.
They might have to actually get a job in the private sector that requires them to perform like the rest of us.
But if you've got a problem, just quit.
Nobody will complain, believe me.
Nobody would complain.
And then we would hire nobody to replace you either, by the way.
Goya Cares partners with Borders are Tom Homan to help traffic migrant children.
No one can stop it alone.
CEO of Goya, Bob UNU, and Fox News contributor Sharon Carter discuss Goya Cares initiative teaming up with Tom Homan to locate missing migrant children, and they've already done it.
By the way, Goya, which is America's largest Hispanic-owned food company, remember, they came out and supported Trump in his first administration.
The liberals tried to boycott it and get it shut down.
That failed.
So, good for Goya.
A good American business trying to do the right thing here.
No woke tards over there.
Trump Justice Department fires officials who investigated Trump and launched special project into January 6th cases.
The ball is rolling here.
House Republicans create new panel aimed at January 6th committee corruption from the Democrats, the leftovers, and Liz Cheney as well.
So hopefully we'll get down to the bottom of what happened.
I think some information is already coming out behind the scenes.
That's what Thomas Massey...
Was alluding to earlier.
House Oversight opens investigation into sanctuary cities for their failure to comply with enforcement of federal immigration law.
So, called to the stand.
This is going to be fun.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston, New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
