The silent majority is no longer silent.
This is The War Room with Owen Schroyer.
Please stand by for further details.
We return you now to your regularly scheduled program.
owen shroyer
Ladies and gentlemen, it is Wednesday, April 30th, 2025.
This is the InfoWars War Room, the fastest three hours on the internet.
Start now.
And we've got...
Multiple things from the White House.
Today, President Trump had a cabinet meeting.
I think everybody was there, the media included.
And so we've got a bunch of clips from that.
We'll hear from multiple members of the Trump cabinet today.
And then last night, ABC News with some hack journalist nobody's ever heard of, hack reporter.
Got access to the Oval Office to do a sit-down interview with Donald Trump.
And, well, things got a little spicy.
Mm-hmm.
We'll turn up the heat with those clips as well.
Then we've got a bunch of news developing today.
It barely gets covered.
And this broke early this morning.
And it's funny.
As I'm monitoring the corporate news, nobody mentioned it.
Even RFK Jr. kind of gave it a bit of a nod during the cabinet meeting, but no corporate news talked about the leaders of a global child exploitation ring getting arrested.
Don't even mention that.
The FBI brought the leaders in.
child sex trafficking network leaders arrested.
unidentified
I think that's kind of a big deal.
owen shroyer
Meanwhile, the Democrats, and maybe they were in on the gig, as the California Democrats were trying to protect individuals in California that might be looking for underage sex workers.
That's right.
The Democrats in California were trying to protect Individuals who were looking to purchase 16-year-olds for sex.
You can't even make this up.
Now, what was Newsom going to do about it?
We'll tell you what he was going to do about it and why.
You also have Alina Haba making an announcement when it comes to election integrity, a major issue that needs to get more momentum.
More court filings are now being discovered.
Dealing with Abrego Garcia, and this is going to come up with the interview Trump did with ABC News in the Oval Office.
They're denying it, folks.
They are denying that Garcia was involved in gang activity despite multiple court documents.
And then apparently the wife who was filing the protective orders, she didn't want to talk about it now, apparently the wife that was following the protective orders, apparently she, Had even made reference to him being involved in a gang.
And then people also discovered on her posts that she would put, she would basically censor in photos with Garcia, his hands.
So you see that?
Why is she putting these images over his hands so you can't see what's on the hands?
Oh, now we know.
But they just say it doesn't exist.
They say none of it exists.
And then they wonder why nobody trusts them.
And it doesn't matter that they get lectured at the White House Correspondents' Dinner by one of their own.
They cannot help themselves.
They just cannot help themselves.
We've got crazy stuff going on in Texas, folks.
I don't know how else to say it.
Just absolutely crazy stuff.
And then we're going to be joined by Representative Eric Burleson from Missouri at some point today to talk about a hearing yesterday he was at.
Rejuvenating American industry.
And then I'll probably pick his brain about one big, beautiful bill and then some other debates that are happening internally, including one that needs to get more attention, and that's the salt deduction that these blue states use to rob you in a red state.
It's insane stuff.
We're absolutely loaded.
Buckle up.
The fastest three hours on the Internet.
We're going to get right into it on the other side.
We're going to go to the Oval Office.
So, President Trump decided to give ABC News some access to the Oval Office.
And this individual, who apparently Trump picked, he said, he tells him, I picked you because I didn't know who you are.
Well, I think this will probably make him, well, I guess we'll see.
This could make him bigger than ever with the left that hates Trump, or this could be the end of his career.
Trump might have ended this guy's career.
I've already forgotten his name as Trump gave him the tongue lashing he deserved, but the guy completely embarrasses himself.
And I guess I would start it like this, because I don't want to do too much of an opening monologue or wax today, because I've got so much news.
But I will say this.
There is a fair criticism that the Trump administration is putting out a ton of propaganda.
Let's just put it like that.
And most of this is in the digital influence sphere.
If you really pay attention on social media, specifically X, you've noticed this.
I've talked about it before.
I don't want to get into length with it.
I don't blame the people that do it.
There's money involved with it.
It grows your account.
It gets you access.
Fine.
But it is definitely happening.
There is definitely Pro-Trump admin propaganda everywhere.
It's pretty intense, quite frankly.
But it's not that I have to justify it, but I understand it.
And it all ties into what happened at this Oval Office interview.
So to somebody tuned into this, or somebody who is very enlightened politically, really understands the complexities of American politics and the real issues we're dealing with, That stuff is like sour to you.
It's just like, ugh.
But most people aren't like you.
You're in like the 1% of Americans that's that politically informed and enlightened.
So it's not for you.
It's like eating dog food.
It's like, yeah, dog food's gross.
It's not for you.
It's for a dog.
So basically this stuff is dog food.
So you're not going to like it.
You're not going to want to taste it.
You're going to regurgitate it.
It's going to make you nauseous.
But I do have to say why I understand it and why they do it and why Trump did this yesterday to the ABC News reporter.
And I do think, in a way, it is strategic.
Not so much like...
It's like 50% cheerleading, 50% strategic.
The American people have been so propagandized, you almost have to do this.
There's so much anti-Trump propaganda, you're almost forced to engage in the pro-Trump propaganda.
Now, this is all on the battlefield of like the normies, the political agnostics or atheists, the people that are politically indifferent, that just kind of get whatever slop comes down the trough to them.
That's who this is for.
So I understand why they're doing it.
It's almost like they have to do it to deprogram the American people or they have to do it to counter all of the anti-Trump propaganda that's going on.
Now, let's go to the Oval Office where the interview happened.
Let's start with the nice stuff.
Let's start with the good stuff here.
President Trump talking about the decorations in the Oval Office.
The portraits of the president he has put up.
And then we'll get into some of the spicy stuff.
But first, here's President Trump talking about the new additions or the decorations he's put up in the Oval Office.
Clip 17. I see Ronald Reagan over there.
donald j trump
Yeah, Ronald Reagan.
unidentified
Right to your left.
donald j trump
Being in the Oval Office is...
They're very important.
Save Ronald Reagan here.
They put him a little bit larger.
Sort of seemed to fit very nicely.
You have Democrats a little bit.
unidentified
Franklin Roosevelt.
donald j trump
Franklin Roosevelt.
So you look at that picture and people say, well, what's he doing up there?
But look, he was a serious president, whether we like it or not.
He was a four-termer and, you know, went through a war.
You have Lincoln, you have Washington, but you look over here, that's Monroe, the Monroe Doctrine.
unidentified
Why is he up there?
donald j trump
I think the Monroe Doctrine was pretty important.
You know, that was his claim to fame.
Over here you have the original of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, and of course you have the Declaration of Independence.
unidentified
What does it mean to you?
donald j trump
Well, it means exactly what it says.
It's a declaration.
It's a declaration of unity and love.
And it means a lot.
And it's something very special to our country.
unidentified
Lincoln's portrait up there.
owen shroyer
Pause it real quick.
I think there's another...
That response needs a little...
A little response.
Because, quite frankly, it was pretty weak.
That's all Trump has to say about the Declaration of Independence.
Now...
They might have edited it out, so I don't want to jump to any conclusions.
But I always advise you when consuming politics, you're going to have to take the good with the bad.
And I think actually that response, or lack thereof, on the Declaration of Independence gives you more of an insight into what President Trump is, what he isn't, and why we're getting the results we're getting and what to expect moving forward.
I don't know.
I mean, I think Trump is a romantic to a certain degree about America.
There's no doubt about it.
And he has the track record to prove it.
I think he's more romantic about business and trade and negotiating.
I think that's what he really romanticizes.
So he's not really this romantic into...
The Declaration of Independence or the Constitution.
He doesn't really romanticize that.
And I think the lack of response there is telling of that.
And that's okay.
That's okay.
And I think maybe in the future, it's almost 100% certain, but let's say 99%, you will see a rise of a constitutional conservative.
You will see a true...
Somebody who loves it, romanticizes American history and the founding fathers, and uses that as a platform to run a campaign.
I do think you will see that in the near future.
Who knows?
Maybe after Trump.
Maybe right after Trump.
But that's not who President Trump is.
It's just not.
And again, I'm not leaping into conclusions.
They could have edited another response out.
But I think even the short response you get there kind of tells it.
What is Trump thinking about?
He's thinking about making America rich again.
He's thinking about getting trade deals that don't have us bent over a barrel and stabbed in the back at the same time.
That's what he's there to do.
And there'll be other issues, and he'll handle other things hopefully well.
But if you think you're getting some constitutional conservative, you're just not.
And that's fine.
He never claimed to be.
unidentified
And...
owen shroyer
I don't even know if now is the right time for that president.
I think Trump is the right president for this time.
Getting the trade deals, getting peace deals, getting American excellence back, and what we see from the Trump agenda when it comes to the economy, that's what he's here to do.
So there might be some other things you wish you got out of him.
That's what he's here to do.
That's what he's going to do.
And I think it's going to have great results for the country.
But this is...
This is not the constitutional conservative that a lot of people on the right are desperate for to rise to political prominence and power.
I think you will get that in the future.
It's just not President Trump.
And that's okay.
And he's got people around him that are more in that ilk.
But it's just not where his heart is at.
And that's okay.
But it was that response that really kind of stood out for me that made it clear.
It's like, okay, here's what Trump is.
Here's what Trump isn't.
Now you understand why you're seeing what you're seeing and why you're not seeing other things.
All right, let's go back as he's talking about Abraham Lincoln portrait.
unidentified
But I think when I'm looking at that famous line in the second inaugural with malice toward none, with charity toward all.
donald j trump
Well, he was...
A great president.
He went through a lot.
unidentified
And the Oval Office is always changing between presidents?
donald j trump
It changes you.
It does.
unidentified
What does this say about how you feel about the country and the office?
donald j trump
Well, I think it says I love the country.
I mean, I'm putting pictures of presidents up that have never been up.
Pictures that weren't largely used in many cases.
You know, great men.
In this case, men.
But great men.
Of great achievement.
unidentified
And you're every detail, it seems.
This is your office.
donald j trump
I'm a very detailed person.
I'm a very clean person.
I like cleanliness.
I like to see this space be treated properly.
I've added a lot to the space in terms of beautification, in terms of modernization.
unidentified
That's a gallery of presidents.
donald j trump
It really is.
It really is.
And it's an honor to have you people with us.
owen shroyer
I'd like to see the compare and contrast between the Biden Oval Office and the Trump Oval Office, like full scale.
Of course, we've seen the other decor as well.
Joe Biden's decor looks like a kindergarten classroom.
Melania Trump's looks like the wife of a prestigious billionaire.
So that's nice to class it up.
Melania, of course, also has to come in there with an exorcist when the Democrats leave, but I suppose that's a different story.
So Trump does romanticize the role as president.
And he does romanticize his role in American history.
But it's not a romantic relationship, I think, with the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution.
And that's okay.
And that's okay.
And in fact, it might actually end up being a good thing for what he needs to do to have success for four years.
But let's move aside from that.
Now, this is where they get into it on the border and Abrego Garcia.
Let's start with...
The journalist trying to shame Trump for his methods on closing the border.
Here's that, clip six.
unidentified
As you said, it is an undeniable fact that illegal crossings at the southern border have plummeted a staggering decline.
But there are questions about your methods.
And so I want to ask...
donald j trump
About my message?
Methods.
unidentified
About your methods.
How you're accomplishing this.
donald j trump
They seem to work.
owen shroyer
Yeah, well, they're definitely working.
Again, it almost gets tiresome, but how can you not mention it?
Where was anybody criticizing Joe Biden for letting in 10, 20 million illegal immigrants?
Where were the pressure sessions?
Where were the struggle sessions?
Where were the media questions about means and methods and results?
No, they just denied it.
They just said it wasn't happening, and then nobody asked a follow-up question.
It's a joke.
It's a joke.
Stopping the invasion of our border is a good thing for America.
Opening it up for 20 million illegal aliens is a bad thing for America.
That's it.
It's not complicated.
And then you see where the corporate media stands on the issue.
They protect Joe Biden.
They support the open border.
Trump comes in, does the right thing, and they attack him for it.
And then they say, but what about your methods?
unidentified
Oh.
owen shroyer
And then this one is just, I mean, this takes the cake.
Now, I can't tell whether...
These liberals really still don't get it that they put the MS-13 on the one image so that you could see the tattoos decoded?
Or if they think that the Trump administration is trying to sell that as a real image, I mean, it's hard to believe anybody could be that stupid, but these are liberals we're dealing with.
So this comes up, and this is where Trump, I understand why he does it, and it's right for him to do this.
Basically, the guy tries to breeze by the question, insinuate that the Trump administration photoshopped an image and then move on.
Trump doesn't let him.
donald j trump
Clip 7. He wasn't a member of a gang.
And then they looked, and on his knuckles, he had MS-13.
unidentified
There's a dispute over that.
donald j trump
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
He had MS-13 on his knuckles tattooed.
unidentified
He had some tattoos that are interpreted that way.
But let's move on.
donald j trump
Wait a minute.
Hey, Terry, Terry.
Terry.
unidentified
You did not have the letter MS-13.
donald j trump
It says MS-13.
unidentified
That was photoshopped.
donald j trump
That was photoshopped.
Terry, you can't do that.
Hey, they're giving you the big break of a lifetime.
You know, you're doing the interview.
I picked you because...
Frankly, I never heard of you, but that's okay.
I picked you.
Terry, but you're not being very nice.
He had MS-13 tattooed.
unidentified
We'll agree to disagree.
I want to move on to something else.
donald j trump
Terry, do you want me to show you the picture?
unidentified
I saw the picture.
donald j trump
Oh, and you think it was photoshopped?
unidentified
Here we go.
donald j trump
Don't photoshop it.
Go look at his hand.
He had MS-13.
unidentified
He did have tattoos that can be interpreted that way.
I'm not an expert on them.
I want to turn to Ukraine, sir.
I want to get to Ukraine.
donald j trump
No, no.
He had MS, as clear as you can be, not interpreted.
This is why people no longer believe the news, because it's fake news.
unidentified
When he was photographed in El Salvador, they aren't there.
But let's just go on.
They aren't there when he's in El Salvador.
donald j trump
Oh, they weren't there, but they're there now, right?
unidentified
No.
They're there in your picture.
donald j trump
Terry.
unidentified
Ukraine, sir.
donald j trump
He's got MS-13 on his knuckles.
unidentified
All right.
owen shroyer
Okay?
unidentified
We'll take a look.
donald j trump
It's such a disservice.
unidentified
We'll take a look at that, sir.
donald j trump
Why don't you just say it?
Yes, he does.
You know, go on to something else.
owen shroyer
It's contested.
So much to unpack there.
First of all, so first he says it's photoshopped.
Trump says, no, it's not.
Then he concedes, okay, well, the tattoo is there and it's not photoshopped.
Then he says...
Well, it's being interpreted as a gang tattoo, but he's not an expert.
So he goes from it's photoshopped to denying it's an MS-13 to saying, well, he's not an expert.
Wow.
That's pretty embarrassing.
So I don't even know.
So who knows what he really thinks?
Who knows what he really believes?
Now, what's interesting is he brings up these images that the media is trying to claim.
Prove it's photoshopped.
And they say when he was pictured in El Salvador, this is when he was sipping on martinis with the Democrat representatives.
By the way, I think more of them might actually head down there.
We need to check our tally here as we're getting towards the end of the month.
So let's say that there is truth to that.
Think about this.
So if he is in El Salvador for this Democrat photo op.
This fake news media propaganda photo op.
And the tattoos aren't there.
What does that mean?
Did they put makeup on his hand so that you couldn't see the tattoos?
Did they Photoshop images from El Salvador so that the tattoos can't be seen?
Which one is it?
If they're claiming he no longer has the tattoos in photos in El Salvador.
They are the ones that photoshopped.
Of course they are.
I should have bet on it.
Everything they accused Trump of doing, they're doing.
So they either photoshopped an image to remove the tattoos from his hand, or they put makeup on his hand so you couldn't see the tattoos.
Wow.
Do you see what scum we're dealing with in the media?
You can never underestimate this scum.
You can never underappreciate how committed they are to lying to you, deceiving you.
So I am now of the belief, if they're going to claim that their images of Abrego Garcia in El Salvador don't have gang tattoos, then they Photoshop the image.
Now the crew brings this image up right here and it shows a tattoo on his hand that they say doesn't exist.
So what is he talking about?
So he's now promoting their own propaganda and their own photoshopped image while he's saying Trump photoshopped images.
You can't make this stuff up.
This is how crazy these people are.
This is how committed they are to the lies.
It's really a stunning thing to witness.
And so Trump has to sit there and say, no, we're not going to move on.
This is the case.
This is who we're dealing with in the media.
What an absolute embarrassment.
And the one final takeaway, and we'll move on to the cabinet meeting next, this is the Trump I voted for.
This is the Trump that defeated the Republican establishment in the 2016 primaries.
The Trump that stands up to the holier-than-thou fake news media.
The Trump that doesn't back down from these propaganda agents.
I'm sick and damn tired.
Why do they always do this?
You are interviewing the President of the United States.
You are not in control here.
You are not the authority here.
You are lucky to get the access.
You are lucky to get the interview.
You're asking the questions.
The President of the United States is answering the questions.
And this guy's disrupting him?
This guy's trying to dictate the terms of the interview?
What an absolute arrogant punk!
This is the Trump we elected, and he doesn't let that little punk get away with it.
So you can imagine...
ABC requests the Oval Office interview.
The White House says, who are you going to send?
They send a list.
They say, here's who we can send.
They give the list to Trump.
There's a guy on there he's never heard of, and so you can understand why Trump would have it that way.
Because he's like, okay, well, I know all these other ABC news hacks, so we're not going to go with them.
I've never heard of this guy right here.
Why don't we give him a chance?
And then what does he do with the chance?
I guess he does what his corporate news media masters want him to do.
Act like an arrogant punk, a holier-than-thou liberal fake news propaganda agent, and tries to dictate the terms of the interview and pretend like he has more authority than the president.
You're an embarrassment.
And so that's what you get.
And more just continues to come out on this guy.
Abrego Garcia accused of being a gangbanger in 2018 court documents.
Another, another court case with the documents now being published where he was a known gang member.
You can't make this stuff up.
And then you have more judges trying to get in the way.
No surprise here.
Blue state judge attempts to stop border patrol from arresting suspected illegal immigrants without a warrant.
Folks, this is just nuts.
And the whole presentation here is fictional.
Judge restricts Border Patrol in California.
You can't just walk up to people with brown skin.
That's not what's going on.
They know who the illegal immigrants are.
They're targeting people that they already know are illegal immigrants and have committed a violent crime.
That's who they're going after.
And they say, oh, well, they don't have a warrant.
What does that even mean?
If I go down the street and rob a convenience store and the cops arrest me, am I going to say, oh, you don't have a warrant?
Are the judges, are you going to put me in front of a judge?
And the judge is going to say, well, what do you mean you arrested this man for burglarizing a convenience store?
Where's your warrant?
A warrant?
He committed a crime.
What are you talking about?
It's just nuts, man.
So U.S. District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston, Reasonable suspicion.
I mean, they have them on record.
They're non-citizens, they're here illegally, and they've committed a violent crime.
And a Democrat judge says, that's not reasonable suspicion.
And then they go with the whole, they're just arresting anyone with brown skin.
It's just all lies.
So whether it's a Democrat judge, whether it's a Democrat member of the media, they're all liars.
All right, Trump assembled the cabinet and let the media in.
So we're going to go through some of the clips from that.
Let's start here.
Trump and Elon.
By the way, there were rumors that Elon was no longer in the White House, so I guess those are now put to rest.
Elon with the double hat.
So Elon wearing a hat on a hat.
He's certainly goofy like that.
And so Trump talks about the double hat.
unidentified
Clip 8. Elon, I love the double hat.
He's the only one that can do that.
Well, Mr. President, they say I wear a lot of hats.
Even my hat has a hat.
owen shroyer
Now, He didn't show up that way for all the members of the cabinet that were there for the meeting.
The Trump White House had new hats stacked up.
So one of them was the Gulf of America red hat that you saw on Musk's hat.
And then the other one, I don't know what the other one was.
It was a black hat.
Oh, it was the same thing, just a different color?
Okay.
So he just had two Golf of America hats sitting on the desk for all the people that arrived.
Musk just decided to pop both of them on his head.
So they'll probably run some fake news story like, Musk wears two hats to the White House.
What a weirdo.
No, he was gifted the hats and he put them on.
So then they talk about the work Doge has done and the savings in clip nine.
unidentified
Thank you.
donald j trump
You've done an incredible job.
$150 billion.
unidentified
Think of that.
Yeah, $160 billion.
donald j trump
Yeah, $160 billion.
And a lot of stuff is being worked on.
That number could be doubled and even tripled.
A lot of things are being worked on that we don't count yet because it's not quite there.
But you've done a fantastic job, and we appreciate it very much.
owen shroyer
So $160 billion and counting, and the number needs to be at least five times that, I would say.
When it's all said and done, we'll see what the final results are.
Musk then talks about securing the borders and what the people voted for, clip 10. You know, the American people voted for secure borders, safe cities, and sensible spending.
unidentified
And that's what they've gotten.
A tremendous amount has been accomplished in the first hundred days.
As everyone has said, it's more than has been accomplished in any administration before ever.
Period.
So this portends very well for what will happen for the rest of the administration.
I think this could be the greatest of administrations out of your country.
donald j trump
Well, we all want to thank you for your help.
unidentified
You really have sacrificed a lot.
donald j trump
You've been treated very unfairly.
unidentified
Well, they did like to rent my cars, which is not great.
You know, it would be better.
donald j trump
But you have been treated unfairly.
But the vast majority of people in this country really respect and appreciate you.
unidentified
And this whole room can say that very strongly, really.
donald j trump
Been a tremendous help.
You opened up a lot of eyes as to what could be done.
And we just want to thank you very much.
And, you know, you're invited to stay as long as you want.
unidentified
At some point, he wants to get back home to his car.
Thank you.
donald j trump
He's done an incredible job.
$150 billion.
thinking that you know a lot of stuff is being worked on that number could be doubled in the
Aw, isn't that sweet?
owen shroyer
Very sweet.
Sweeten on one another.
You know, one of the things about Trump, too, worth mentioning before we move on, he's really into...
I don't know if it's nostalgia is the word, but, like, he wants everyone around him to enjoy the moment and have something physical to remember the moment by.
And that's why he gives out the hats.
That's why he gives out the pens.
That's why you've seen it before in some of the Oval Office clips when he brings some of these guests in.
He's got this little wooden box on the side of his desk where he has these coins, and you've seen it before.
He's got one that's like a silver-black coin, and then he's got one that's a gold and blue coin.
But they're these presidential coins, and he invites people in.
He gives everybody a coin.
That's the kind of guy Trump is.
He likes fancy stuff.
He likes his name on stuff.
They just announced there's going to be a Trump International Hotel and Tower in Dubai, by the way, that the renderings of that look very sleek, I must say.
This is what Trump is into.
He's the billionaire.
He's the blue-collar billionaire.
He likes seeing success.
He likes being around hard-working, successful people.
He doesn't care if you're rich or not.
He just wants everybody to enjoy the ride.
He wants the rising tide to lift all ships.
That's what he's into.
And he's kind of got the grandpa energy too.
You know, hey kids, have a coin.
Hey, have a hat.
It's fun for him.
He's having fun.
He wants everybody else to have fun too.
You can save the country and have fun at the same time.
That is okay.
Marco Rubio getting into...
The situation about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, clip 11. Mr. President, can I ask Secretary Rubio, can I ask you a question?
unidentified
You've brought up El Salvador in your remarks.
Have you been in touch with El Salvador about returning Abrego Garcia?
Has a formal request from this administration been made?
marco rubio
Well, I would never tell you that.
And you know who else I'll never tell?
A judge.
Because the conduct of our foreign policy belongs to the President of the United States and the executive branch, not some judge.
So we will conduct foreign policy appropriately if we need to.
But I'll never discuss it.
And no one will ever make us discuss it because that's how foreign policy works.
owen shroyer
At what point do we start crediting Donald Trump with the rise of Marco Rubio?
That's the sign of leadership, folks.
That's the sign of leadership.
He took little Marco, the bubble boy, from 2016 and turned him into a serious geopolitical representative for the United States of America.
And I think Rubio's done a fantastic job.
That's all Trump's leadership right there.
Credit Donald Trump where the credit is due.
Bringing along Marco Rubio, turning Marco Rubio into a net positive for the country.
Who saw that coming?
He then talks about some things the Biden administration was up to in clip 12. Something else we got out of the business of.
marco rubio
It wasn't widely reported, or maybe it was.
We had an office in the Department of State whose job it was to censor Americans.
owen shroyer
Pause it again real quick.
I'm sorry.
He's wearing the exact same thing Trump is wearing.
I tell you, this is the Trump influence, man.
That's just the leadership of Trump.
That's the influence of Trump.
He's dressing exactly like Trump.
I like it.
It's feel good.
It's okay.
Enjoy it.
All right, start it over.
Go ahead.
marco rubio
Something else we got out of the business of.
It wasn't widely reported, or maybe it was.
We had an office in the Department of State whose job it was to censor Americans.
And by the way, I'm not going to say who it is.
I'll leave it up to them.
There's at least one person at this table today who had a dossier in that building of social media posts to identify them as purveyors of disinformation.
We have these dossiers.
We are going to be turning those over to these individuals.
jd vance
We can follow up with the media.
marco rubio
Well, we are going to turn over these dossiers to the individuals and they'll decide whether they want to disclose it or not.
But just think about the Department of State of the United States had set up an office to monitor the social media posts and commentary of American citizens to identify them as vectors of disinformation.
When we know that the best way to combat disinformation is freedom of speech and transparency.
And so that's what we're going to be in the business of doing.
We're not going to have an office that does that.
owen shroyer
Now, I couldn't tell if that was Vance that said that, who said it was either me or Musk.
And then I think if you kind of hear Musk in the back, I think Musk was confirming it was him.
And that would make sense since he owns X, formerly Twitter.
So I don't know if that was necessarily a shot at Elon as much as it was just a, hey, you know, the Biden administration was censoring people using social media.
But either way, you can see there the tension, the full contact policy negotiations happening internally, and then, you know what, it goes right in front of the media and they have a little laugh about it.
This is all healthy activity to me.
I look at all of this as healthy activity happening inside of the Trump administration.
And Trump is actually trying to be the president.
It's not a puppet.
It's not a controlled individual.
He's trying to be the president.
He might be the only one in our lives that, maybe since Ronald Reagan, that's been actually trying to be the president and trying to lead a nation.
And maybe that's why he has the Ronald Reagan portrait so big in the Oval Office, as he mentioned.
Labor Secretary Lori Chavez Talks about, listen to this $250 million grant that she cut.
unidentified
Listen to this, clip 14. We saved $250 million by canceling America last, is what I call it, foreign handouts, including funding for things like transparency and accountability for Uzbekistan cotton industry.
It doesn't make sense that we're funding, you know, these foreign thank you to Doge and to the government efficiency of what we have found with the fraud that we're seeing.
I mean, some of these things are so ridiculous, you can't believe it.
No, I write them down and I read them more than once.
Cotton polish.
Yeah, it doesn't make sense.
It sounds like a comedy sketch.
That's right.
And so, again, with the executive order preparing Americans for high-paying skilled trade jobs of the future, that's our goal.
owen shroyer
$250 million for Uzbekistan.
Cotton farmers.
How many of you could find Uzbekistan on a map?
I'm not even sure.
You guys think I could do it?
unidentified
I think I could do it.
owen shroyer
I'd bet on myself that I could do it.
But even the people that signed it, even the people that said, hey, yeah, $250 billion for Uzbekistan cotton farmers, I bet you they couldn't even find it on a map.
Who's negotiating these things?
Where does this...
Who's calling...
The White House, who's calling any of these administrations and saying, hey, can we get $250 million for Uzbekistan cotton farmers?
It's like Musk said, it sounds like a comedy sketch.
Are there even cotton farmers in Uzbekistan?
What the hell is going on?
It's crazy.
jd vance
J.D. Vance addresses the fake news in clip 16. Why is it that the press is so focused on the fake BS rather than what's really going on in the country?
I think that what we've shown, sir, is that you can do a lot.
You can do a lot in 100 days, but you've also unfortunately revealed that too much of the American media hasn't learned the lessons of the past 40 years.
owen shroyer
I mean, we're already up against it now, the threshold.
I think, and I've talked about this before, but I think it's pretty clear at this point.
Social media now has more of an influence on election results, definitely presidential election results, than corporate media, cable news media, network media.
That's been proven.
Now, I will say midterms, I'm not so sure.
Midterms might still be more in the hands of the traditional media.
And then outside of an election year, the traditional media still has way more influence over politics than social media.
But these days are coming to an end.
These things are shifting fast.
And I don't think we're too far away.
Maybe two or three election cycles.
Probably two or three presidential election cycles, for sure.
Where the corporate news media, the traditional...
Political media will be completely irrelevant.
Completely irrelevant.
So irrelevant that they might still exist.
I don't know if I would say they won't exist.
But it'll be like watching one of those old televisions that had a knob with like 10 channels.
It'll just be like some sort of a...
View into the past, some relic of the past that's still there.
But it's not relevant.
Nobody wants it.
But it's still there.
I'd say you're two, three presidential election cycles away from normal corporate traditional media being completely irrelevant in American politics.
Now Trump was asked about the Insurrection Act.
Here's what he said in clip 13. We have a country that's under siege.
donald j trump
We have a country that really is under...
I think it's under attack.
In many ways, worse than under attack, because there are no uniforms.
You don't know who the attacker is, so you really don't...
It's not like you're fighting an army.
You're fighting people you don't even know who they are.
But 11,888 murderers, many of them murdered far more than one person, are roaming.
Now, some of them have already been caught.
A lot of them have already been caught and taken out.
But we're being impeded by judges from doing our job.
And hopefully that situation is going to be solved.
Because I think nobody wants to have murderers and people from jail.
And I mean for serious, serious crime.
owen shroyer
So now, I think the Trump administration needs to start thinking strategically.
And I'm sure they're having these conversations.
And as lawyers and other members of the cabinet are saying, their ideas for how to deal with these judges.
But I really don't think it's that complicated.
Now, you have to look at every angle, and you have to go through all your options, but I think the situation is clear.
I think the solution is clear.
You have to ignore the judges.
That's it.
And it's not that you're ignoring the judges because you want to set some precedent where you're nullifying the judicial branch or you're trying to turn the judicial branch into some...
You know, vestigial situation that has no impact or authority anymore.
I think you ignore the judges so that you make a national case out of it.
And then when they take it to the public, then the public can say, okay, well, what's going on here?
The Trump administration is trying to deport an illegal alien that raped somebody.
And the judge is saying you can't do it.
Hmm, that's interesting.
Let's see that.
Go national.
Let's see the people understand that.
And then you repeat it how many times?
20 times?
30 times?
40 times?
50 times?
And just every single judge, like, hey, we're trying to deport a violent, illegal, alien criminal.
This judge won't let us deport it.
Well, what's the deal with this individual that you're trying to deport?
Well, you know, raped a minor, murdered somebody in a gang.
The judge wants to keep him here.
Okay, let's do it.
Let's have it out.
Because anything else you try to do is just going to get messy and you're going to go back and forth with interpretations of the Constitution and everything else.
So I would just ignore them.
And it's not a constitutional crisis.
The constitutional crisis is the activist judges.
That's the constitutional crisis.
Don't let them rewrite the narrative here.
When you have judges that are acting as executives and you have judges that are protecting criminals, that's a constitutional crisis.
Not the President of the United States doing the job of the executive branch.
Alright, now RFK Jr. says something shocking here.
I don't know if he's directly referencing this story from the FBI today or just a larger issue at the border.
Leaders of 764 arrested and charged for operating Global Child Exploitation Enterprise.
And they arrested two of these leaders today.
The FBI did.
Court hearings in D.C. pending for both of the individuals arrested.
FBI arrests ringleaders of International Sadistic Child Sex Trade Network.
To graphic abuse and violence involving minors.
And I don't want to get too much into this.
unidentified
You get the idea.
owen shroyer
Ed Martin was part of this announcement, by the way.
You know, the one they're trying to stop from replacing Matthew Graves, who locked up thousands of Americans for their speech.
Including myself, and then beyond that, he was even involved in making sure their situation while in prison wasn't very comfortable either.
But that's a different story.
So then RFK Jr., HHS involved in this stuff?
robert f kennedy-jr
Listen to what he says here in clip 15. In the Biden administration, HHS became a collaborator in child trafficking and for sex and for slavery.
owen shroyer
They are looking to find the 300,000
missing children lost by the Biden administration.
He says the Biden administration was actively complicit in this child trafficking.
Now, obviously he's right.
So, the question remains, when are there going to be mass arrests?
When?
Everybody knows it's true.
Pam Bondi was sitting in the room.
She was back on Fox News last night, by the way.
She had a double appearance yesterday.
It's good for her.
So, 300,000 missing children.
The invasion of the country and who has been held responsible for this?
And now you're in a political trench warfare fight against Democrat judges?
You can't even deport violent criminal illegal aliens?
unidentified
Hmm.
owen shroyer
Now, look, I don't like it.
The deportation numbers certainly need to be up.
But I understand why they're having issues with that.
It's not me excusing the low numbers.
It's just I understand why there's the issue there.
What I don't understand is why we don't have members of the Biden administration that were actively involved in human trafficking, child trafficking.
I don't know why they're not being walked in front of a congressional hearing under oath.
I don't know why they're not being arrested and charged grand juries, criminal referrals.
That I don't understand.
That I have no excuse for.
Well, maybe we get a better idea.
Look at what they're doing in California, folks.
You can't even believe this.
California Democrats to block effort to make it a felony to buy 16 and 17-year-olds for sex.
What?
So, in other words...
They are attempting to lower the punishment for anyone in California that attempts to solicit a minor for sex.
Of course, the Republicans are the ones trying to up the charges and make it a felony.
The Democrats are shooting it down.
Tell me why.
Tell me why Democrats are trying to protect people that exploit minors for sex.
Can somebody explain that to me?
Well, Newsom is stopping it.
Newsom overrides Dem on sex trafficking.
Newsom supports harsher penalties for purchasing 16- and 17-year-olds for sex.
Well, thank God.
Now, I would say, hey, Gavin Newsom, look, he's got some common sense.
Look, he's doing the right thing.
That's not what this is about, folks.
He's running for president.
That's what this is about.
And Newsom doesn't want to be on a presidential debate stage.
When somebody brings up the fact that he was protecting criminals who purchased minors for sex.
That's why he's blocking this.
Either way, the result is good.
So it's a good thing Newsom is planning on running for president so that we can make felons out of people that solicit minors for sex, which the Democrats are against in California.
Go figure.
That's crazy.
All right.
First hour in the books.
We did good.
We covered all the news out of the White House that we wanted to.
We're going to get into some of these headlines on the other side of this break.

Alright.
There's a new rift in this swatting situation, which of course includes the fake food deliveries, pizza deliveries.
And it's happened to some other people.
They haven't gone public.
I've been told things behind the scenes.
I'm not going to make a big fuss of it right now, because I do know there's some other internal issues happening.
And I think that the FBI agents handling my case are good people.
I've obviously had meetings with them.
But I was told that there were going to be some developments.
They didn't happen.
But that aside, now this is happening to judges.
The fake food deliveries are happening to judges.
So now the corporate media on the left is picking it up.
And, of course, they're trying to tie it into Trump extremism.
These could all be the same groups.
Who knows?
But this is pretty strange.
Or maybe there's something else going on.
Other people are thinking this might have to do with the symbolism or the coded language of pizza and cheese pizza and some of the other things that we know is related to sex crimes against children.
But listen to this report in clip four.
unidentified
...about pizzas being delivered to various judges.
These pizzas were being delivered to judges' homes.
And so that first line of intimidation is, we know where you live.
Then it escalated.
And it escalated to pizzas being delivered to judges' children's homes.
owen shroyer
So same pattern with the families.
unidentified
And that was an escalation of these acts of intimidation.
Well, just this week, I was contacted by a judge.
And I was told that the second pizza that arrived at this judge's house, he had already received one before, the second pizza that arrived at this judge's house was sent by my son, Daniel Anderle.
The name that they used on the pizza was Daniel Anderle, my baby boy, who we lost on July 19, 2020.
And if it would have stopped there, it would have been bad enough, but it's not stopping Nicole.
Just last night, another pizza.
There's four now.
Four pizzas that are being sent to judges as threats.
And who's the sender?
Daniel Anderle.
Let me tell you why this is significant.
You send a pizza to a judge's house, that's the message.
I know where you met.
You send a pizza to a judge's child's house.
I know where your child lives.
But now you're sending pizzas to a judge and their child with Daniel Andrewl as the sender.
And that says you want to end up like Judge Salas's child.
You want to end up like Judge Salas.
This escalating, these escalating threats.
owen shroyer
You know, isn't it ironic?
Of course, MSNBC did not mention a single case with the swattings against conservatives.
They didn't mention a single case of the pizza deliveries to conservatives.
Yes, myself included.
They never covered it then.
Not a single mention.
But now that it's the judges in this political street fight against Trump...
Now they're covering it.
And notice all the patterns are the same.
Putting deceased individuals' names in a very personal way to the people they're sending it to, sending it to their families.
It's all the same patterns of what's been happening to people like myself.
Could be the same group.
So maybe now they'll apply pressure to the FBI.
Maybe now we'll get some results here that it's happening against judges.
Still nothing on my end.
But, you know...
And let me be clear.
I obviously am completely against the judge.
I don't even care if this is a judge, quite frankly, remaining principled.
I don't even care if it's a judge that threw me in jail.
They don't deserve this treatment and torture.
They'll have to deal with that either, you know, acting illegally and taking somebody's rights or maybe when they meet their maker.
Not my problem.
But isn't it funny?
Oh, now, now it's threats to them.
Now it's threats against their safety.
Now it's the escalation.
But when it was dozens of conservative commentators and getting swatted, they didn't care.
They didn't have any issues.
All right, we're hoping to be connecting with Eric Burleson any moment now.
He's got a vote coming up, so we're going to have to reschedule.
Originally, it was going to be later on in the show, but I just figured let's just get him on while we can get him because you never know what's going to happen in D.C. So I've got some stuff I want to talk about with him, some important developments, and then something that...
Really didn't get much attention.
And I don't understand why.
Well, I guess I do understand why, because this is a unifying factor.
When we talk about American industry, American excellence, the American economy, it's something that, when everybody understands, will bring us together.
A booming economy will be great for all Americans, no matter where they vote.
So, of course, they don't cover it, and he was part of a hearing.
So we're going to have that coming up.
We're going to go ahead and just...
Move that interview up and just get any time with him that we can.
Meanwhile, some interesting things coming out of Michelle Obama.
First of all, I guess she's thinking a lot about Donald Trump, apparently dreaming about Donald Trump, having nightmares.
Michelle Obama is most fearful of the Trump administration.
She says she has nightmares about it, keeps her up at night.
So, I, you know, I gotta say, I don't know if I've ever, has Trump, have you ever had a dream about Trump?
I don't think so.
Can't recall having a dream about Trump.
Apparently Michelle Obama does a lot.
Of course, this is ironic, considering that her husband deported more illegal aliens than Donald Trump did.
So she's upset at Trump's deportations, but her husband Barack deported, what, like three times as many illegal aliens as Trump did?
I bet you she doesn't even know that, actually.
She probably doesn't even know that.
But she can't help herself.
It's just, she just leans into everything race.
So sick of the race crap.
But I guess since nobody's watching her podcast, there's no buzz, there's no numbers, it'll probably be canceled soon.
She just figures, let me lean into this stuff that might get me clips, might get me viral.
Maybe we can keep the thing going even though no one's listening.
So she just goes all about race here on Clip 21. Couldn't be.
michelle obama
We couldn't walk around saying valedictorian, straight-A student, you know, speaks excellent, has excellent diction if you give them a chance.
You know, we knew very early on that no one was going to see.
owen shroyer
Okay, quiet you.
Pull her down.
All right, we've got Trump live.
We're going to go ahead and get her off the screen.
And as we're getting connected with Representative Burleson, let's chime, pipe in here, Donald Trump giving remarks on investing in America.
Guys, go ahead.
donald j trump
I think there's never been anything like it.
So now we're at the lowest scale for a large country, by far at the lowest scale.
Our pro-jobs, pro-American economic policies are a major reason that businesses around the world have announced $5 trillion of investment since November 5th, and now we think it's up to plus $8 trillion.
And they're really coming in.
They're really coming in fast.
Some of them don't bother calling us.
Some of them don't even want meetings.
They don't want to just start their plants and start their factories.
I want to express my tremendous appreciation to the business leaders here.
You are really an amazing group.
This is a who's who.
I don't want to say, you know, there's an expression of something ever went off.
The entire industry would be wiped out, but I won't say that.
I want to think very positively, and that could never happen here, could it?
But I want to congratulate you all on your incredible success and accomplishments.
You've been amazing.
You're the biggest and the best.
So I'd like to introduce some of you, President and CEO of Hyundai, Jose Munoz.
Jose, thank you very much.
Fantastic.
Jose is investing.
$21 billion, including $5.8 billion for a new steel plant in Louisiana, which is a beauty.

Thank you very much, Jose.
Beautiful.

Thank you, Rodolf.

Oh, Brian.
Thank you, Brian.
He's investing $1 billion for a new manufacturing facility in Ohio and display.
Next to me is their 125-pound Roadrunner drone.
Where is that little sucker?
Where is it?
Which is that?
Whoa.
That's a nasty-looking thing.
That's nasty.
I look up there when I'm having dinner outside.
I used to look up and see the moon.
Isn't it beautiful?
Now you see the moon, but you see drones all over the place.
And I say, let's get the hell out of here.
That's a good one, isn't it, huh?
I can see it.
CEO of Worldwide Amazon Stores, Doug Harrington.
Thank you very much.
Thank you, Doug, very much.
Investing $4 billion this year alone.
And I know they said they're going to be investing a lot over the next two years.
We appreciate it very much.
Thank you.

Thank you, Anthony.
I read a report that he's the richest man in Australia, but who the hell knows?
Do you think you're the richest man in Australia?
Close.
I don't like to put you on the spot like that, Anthony, but that's pretty good.
Thank you very much.
That's great.

My hair looks so beautiful because of your product.
Joaquin Duato, $55 billion manufacturing plant and research and development and technology.
Thank you very much, $55 billion.
That's a lot.
But you've got to catch up with Apple and so many others.
We've got to get you to make a little...
You're one of the few companies that could do that, right?
Chair and CEO of Eli Lilly, a great guy.
Every time I talk to him about drug prices, he sweet-talks me.
He tells me about the middleman, the middleman, keeps telling me about the middleman.
By the time I leave the meetings, I was telling my people, I say, gee, he's giving us a great bargain.
But David, you have done some job.
David Ricks, you have done some job.
I'll see you later, too.
$27 billion, doubling its manufacturing investment in the U.S., and he's got a very hot topic right now going.
This stuff is doing really well as a really hot company.
Thank you very much, David.

And with us is we have the model of their F110 engine, which I hear is like...
I must tell you, I hear it's the hottest engine there is.
You've got a...
You've got a goldmine over there, Larry, which powers our nation's finest fighter jets and other jets.
And your big engine is really something that I hear is beyond anything that has been produced yet.
So good luck with it.
And, Larry, I think we're going to ask you to say a few words, actually.
So come on up.
Thank you.
unidentified
Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. President.
It's an honor to be here representing.
All of my colleagues at GE Aerospace.
We are today 125 years old, but we are inventing the future of flight.
Today, we power three-quarters of the world's commercial airlines and nearly two-thirds of the U.S. military combat jets and helicopters.
So what you see here with the F-110 powers 70% of the newest Air Force F-15s and the F-16s.
I know you were in Michigan just yesterday.
This is the engine that will be under wing on the F-15EX Eagle II.
owen shroyer
That's hilarious.
unidentified
That the Michigan Air National Guard will soon be flying.

By the way, Trump called Bezos.
Pull this down real quick.
I don't think Bezos has...
I mean, his role at Amazon now is, I think, quite limited.
And he called Bezos.
Trump called Bezos and said, hey, this notification that you have on Prime...
It's against our policy on tariffs.
You know, we don't like that.
Can you get that taken down?
Bezos got it taken down immediately.
Immediately.
One call from Trump.
So I wonder now, are you going to start getting your Amazon packages and it'll have a Made in America on it or an American flag on it like they have in the background there?
I guess time will tell.
All right, let's go back to Trump.
donald j trump
And he has done a really great job.
You are...
You took over a slightly troubled company, and now you've made it out as a business.
owen shroyer
It looks like some of the representatives are departing the meeting there.
They have to go to the floor for a vote.
donald j trump
Also with us is chairman and CEO of SoftBank.
Massa, where's Massa?
Massa, come on up here, Massa.
owen shroyer
By the way, Eric Burleson, interviewer, is going to be delayed here.
He's also heading to the floor for a vote, so that's why you see some of those individuals getting up there.
They've got to get to the floor to vote.
donald j trump
$500 billion with Oracle and OpenAI.
For a total of $700 billion.
Thank you, Maastricht.
Come on up, please.
unidentified
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Please. Thank you.
Well, first time of Trump's administration, we made an announcement, commitment, $50 billion.
We delivered $70 billion over four years last time.
This time...
I tried to commit $100 billion, and President Trump said, oh, Martha, go for more.
So we did that $200 billion commitment, and then right after that, we, SoftBank, OpenAI, Oracle, and MGX together, we announced $500 billion investment.
This is the largest investment for infrastructure in the United States.
This is the largest infrastructure for the AI, which is the future of mankind, I believe.
It's going to change every industry, every way of how our mankind's lifestyle of the future.
I am committed.
U.S. is the center of innovation.
U.S. must continue the leadership of AI.
Thank you very much.
donald j trump
Thank you very much, Masa.
Been a friend of mine for a long time.
These guys are a mover.
We've got to say, you are really something.
That's great.
We appreciate it, too.
Great spirit.
Great genius.
Tim Cook from Apple is pledging...
Not only pledging, it's committed to $500 billion.
They're going to build plants all over the country, seven or eight different states.
They've already started.
And so I want to thank Tim.
That's such a big investment for somebody that, you know, had them pretty much in one location, as you know.
Now they're coming into the United States, I believe, because of the spirit and the tariffs and the incentives.
That's Apple for $500 billion.
And one of the most brilliant men that you'll ever meet, the man that's done in a short period of time something that is incredible.
He's the founder, CEO, and president of NVIDIA.
Jensen Wang, he's producing up to $500 billion over the next four years to manufacture the most powerful AI chips entirely in the USA for the first time ever.
Jensen, would you come up and say a few words?
This is a smart cookie.
unidentified
Thank you, Mr. President.
It's a great honor to be here.
NVIDIA reinvented computing for the first time after 60 years.
In fact, Ervin at IBM knows quite well that the computer has largely been the same since the 60s.
The IBM System 360 described really quite perfectly the computer that we use today.
Central processing units, operating systems, the separation of hardware and software, IO subsystems, multitasking.
All of the words that we use to describe computers today were really invented in 1964, the year after my birth.
Well, after all this time, we've reinvented computers again.
This is what a processor looks like.
It's on the right there.
People say it's a GPU.
That's one GPU unit, and it's 70 pounds, 60,000 parts, 10,000 watts.
In order to manufacture it requires probably a couple of hundred companies in the supply chain.
It is so heavy that it requires robotics to do.
It's so precise.
And just to test a supercomputer requires a supercomputer.
And we're going to build...
NVIDIA's technology, the next generation of that, all here in the United States.
Without the President's leadership, his policies, his support, and very importantly, his strong encouragement.
And I mean his strong encouragement.
Frankly, manufacturing in the United States wouldn't have accelerated to this pace.
Manufacturing...
Manufacturing isn't about low-cost labor anymore.
Manufacturing is about technology.
And most of the factories that build these systems today are the most advanced factories in the future.
And we're going to use artificial intelligence and robotics and omniverse digital twin technology to make it possible for us to create the factories of the future.
And we ought to build it right here.
The real amazing thing is that this computer is the engine Of a whole new industry.
And this new industry is called artificial intelligence.
And this new industry is a manufacturing industry in itself.
That's a factory machine.
Just as several hundred years ago, the dynamo was invented.
Water would come in and electricity would come out.
Now electricity goes into this machine and incredible tokens come out.
Artificial intelligence.
In order for this industry to thrive...
We need to build these systems, of course, but we also need a progressive growth and industry-oriented energy policy, which this president has really put his weight behind.
I really appreciate that.
Without energy, we can't possibly have new growth industries.
And we now have the backing of the administration, the backing of President Trump to support the creation of a whole new industry.
This industry is going to enable a whole bunch of other industries.
What we now call the AI infrastructure is going to revolutionize every industry that we know.
All of the many CEOs in the room today are great partners of ours for that reason.
We're working on artificial intelligence for many industries, from healthcare to drug discovery to life sciences, financial services, education, so many different industries.
And that's going to be possible because we have the fundamental infrastructure here in the United States.
And so I want to thank you, sir, for everything that you've done and the strong encouragement and the great policies that make it possible for us.
Thank you, sir.
owen shroyer
And by the way, there's going to be a side effect of this.
It's going to force America to go nuclear, folks.
I mean, there'll be no other option.
donald j trump
We have brilliant people here.
And we like brilliant people, actually.
But we have a lot of brilliant people in this group.
And it's an honor to be with you.
100 days have been fighting to reclaim our jobs and bring our country back to a level that it's never seen before.
And again, renew the American dream, which is what we're doing.
We have tremendous spirit.
I don't know if you've heard, but it's become really quite a story.
I see Pete's right over here, Secretary of Defense.
We have the largest number of new enlistees or people enlisting in the military forces that we've ever had.
And if you remember six months ago, we couldn't get anybody to sign up.
That's a big turn in a very short period of time.
November 5th had a lot to do with that.
And our secretary of defense and a lot of the people that you see sitting here really had a lot to do
We're having a hard time filling them up.
It's a dangerous job, but now we have waiting lists at almost every place.
And that's an amazing accomplishment when you think it's amazing.
unidentified
Thank you.
donald j trump
And when I first came here, you remember just three months ago, I came in and they started screaming.
The fake news was screaming.
They were going crazy about eggs.
I don't know about eggs.
What's with eggs?
unidentified
Tell me.
donald j trump
They said, their cost is up 50%, and you won't have them for Easter.
They said, well, I'll have to get on to it, but this isn't my problem.
This is Biden's problem.
I've only been here for four days.
They're screaming at me about it.
owen shroyer
By the way, as we head to break, and we'll pick this up on the other side, isn't it funny?
You know, the American left, the Democrats, the liberals, the progressives, they always come out against Wall Street.
You know, Trump's only in it for Wall Street.
He's working for Wall Street.
And then the markets collapse, which hurts Wall Street.
And they say, look, Trump's collapsing the markets.
It's so bad.
It's like, what the hell?
It's the same thing with the economy.
Biden gets in.
Prices skyrocket.
And then what do they do?
They blame Trump.
And they say, oh, it's the inflation because of Trump.
It's the price increase because of Trump.
So it's just like, you know.
But then...
Trump gets in, and then they blame all the economic issues on him and not Biden.
That's, you know, that's all they can do.
All right, Trump still speaking at the White House, talking about all the investments incoming, displaying some products, hearing from the investors.
Let's go back to the White House.
donald j trump
A lot of different companies.
We're all set to really grow.
Groceries are down.
The grocery prices are down.
Gasoline prices are down.
We had some gasoline selling for $1.98 a gallon just recently in three different states over the last two days.
It was at $4, and it was higher than that in some place.
It was over $5.
We have it way down.
Energy prices are down all over the country.
Mortgage rates are actually down slightly, even though I have a guy in the Fed that I'm...
Not a huge fan of, but that's all right.
These are minor details.
Don't tell him I said that, please.
As the cameras rock and roll back there.
No, I'm just...
I mean, he should reduce interest rates.
I think I understand interest a lot better than him because I've had to really use interest rates.
But we should have interest rates go down.
It would be positive.
But it's not going to matter that much because ultimately...
What we're creating has much more to do with other things than it does just pure interest rates.
But it would be nice for people wanting to buy homes and things.
The prescription drug prices just saw the largest monthly decline ever recorded.
So, David, I'm having a little bit of an impact, at least on you, as I just browbeat.
I browbeat this guy.
He's got the nice...
He looks like he's 25 years old.
He has this massive company, Eli Lilly.
And it has no impact on them whatsoever.
But I just see this number just came out.
It's the largest monthly decline ever recorded.
Yeah, but it's probably about 2%.
You know, they did that to make me feel a little bit better.
But I appreciate it.
We have achieved the lowest number of illegal border crossings in U.S. history.
And we're at a level that nobody thought we could get to in two years, let alone.
A couple of months.
And I think Kristi Noem is here someplace.
Where is Kristi?
She's here.
Stand up, Kristi.
And Tom Holman.
And I see Linda.
Stand up, Linda.
You're doing so good.
Education.
We're bringing education back to the States.
Where it belongs.
And she's been incredible.
She's very upset with Harvard.
They have $53 billion in a fund, and yet they want more grants.
And it looks like we're not going to be giving them any more grants, right, Linda?
And, you know, a grant is at our discretion, and they're really not behaving well, so it's too bad.
But our country is roaring like never before nobody's ever really seen anything like this.
And again, the big thing is whether it's $8 trillion or even more than that.
By the end of the year, it could be a number that would be...
I think it's already...
There's never been anything like it, but this is in a period of a couple of months.
I think by the end of the year, the numbers will be just staggering.
It's really going to be something very special, and I'm very honored to be with you.
And I'd ask if anybody has any questions, please.
This is your time.
This is your time.
You'll be live on television, all the fake news back there.
No, that'll keep them down, right?
That's the way to keep them down, unless they're bad people, in which case, unless they want to make some news.
Would anybody have any questions?
Anybody?
Business leaders?
You want to know anything about depreciation?
unidentified
No?
donald j trump
I love it.
We've done such a good job, we don't have to take...
Howard, would you like to say a couple of words, please?
unidentified
Thank you.
howard lutnick
The president talks about $8 trillion coming into America.
And there's only one reason it's coming in.
It's because he's finally set an industrial policy for the United States of America.
We are the greatest economy in the world.
We finally have a president who understands that we need to re-industrialize.
We need to be made in America, made in the USA.
And you feel it.
You feel it with these leaders.
You feel it across all your peers.
Everyone feels it.
It's coming back to America.
And we are going to be rocking.
So thank you, sir.
donald j trump
So thank you very much, everybody.
And for the business leaders, if any of you would like to come down to the Oval and say hello, if you've never seen it, if you have seen it, just go home and enjoy your lives, count your money.
But if you'd like to come down, I'm heading down there now.
And again, thank you very much.
Everybody.
Pam, you're doing a fantastic job.
You're doing a fantastic job.
Thank you very much.
Thank you, everybody.
owen shroyer
All right.
If anything else comes out of the Oval Office, we'll let you know, but likely just some handshakes, photo ops, and Trump presidential coin giveaways.
But if anything else develops there, we will let you know.
All right.
We're back live in the Infowars.
We are hoping to have Representative Eric Burleson joining us in the third hour of today's transmission.
If they can get the vote done in time, he's going to head our way to talk about some congressional issues.
So we got that coming up.
Not to mention, still a bunch of news on the desk to cover.
All right.
Now, we did get some good news as far as the life extension here at InfoWars.
Alex Jones talking about that earlier.
He posted a report on X as well, updating the audience where that stands.
He briefly made an announcement yesterday at the end of this show, then posted on X, talked about it briefly on his show today as well.
We do still have the sale happening right now at thealexjonesstore.com on the InfoWars apparel, which is still limited, but you can still get the InfoWars gym towel and...

We really appreciate the continued support of our audience.
It's your support that keeps us on the air.
And we are grateful.
All right.
What do we want to do here to finish off?
The second hour.
Let's look at some, you want to see some leftist craziness?
Boy, oh boy.
You know, the Democrats, when you get into a deep policy debate with the Democrats, eventually you're going to reach the bottom.
And when you reach that bottom, you will force the Democrat you're debating with, the liberal, progressive, whatever, they all wear the same hat.
You will eventually force that individual to defend death.
Support death.
That's right.
Whether it's the open border policies, pro-abortion, transgenderism, they always eventually, when you reach the bottom line, have to defend death.
Here's an example.
College Democrats are asked about abortion and the baby.
Because, you know, it's the mom's right.
And then the question gets to the second level.
Watch how it goes in clip two.
kaitlin bennett
If it's an abortion, if you support it, every time for the life of the mother, what are you supporting?
unidentified
Whatever the mother wants to do with her body, she should be able to do.
kaitlin bennett
Should she be able to do cocaine and fentanyl while she's pregnant?
unidentified
She should be able to.
kaitlin bennett
Should she be able to do that?
unidentified
While she's pregnant?
It is her body, it's her choice.
kaitlin bennett
She should be able to do cocaine and fentanyl while she's pregnant at nine months?
unidentified
If it's her choice, then yes.
kaitlin bennett
You support that?
unidentified
I'm laughing.
I don't support that.
We don't know how she got pregnant.
We don't know what situations she's in that she's taking these hard drugs that you're talking about.
Maybe she's dealing with some shit and she has to take these drugs.
Maybe she's on the street.
You don't know what's going on with somebody.
And if we're saying, oh, we're going to start criminalizing people that are doing hard drugs like that, which is already happening.
kaitlin bennett
While pregnant.
unidentified
But putting the while pregnant is like, you're not addressing the real issue.
The real issue is why is this mother on?
No, that's not the issue.
I don't think people do cocaine because they want to relieve stress.
kaitlin bennett
I think that they are addicted to cocaine and they have no ability to control themselves.
unidentified
So what has just happened here?
owen shroyer
Is you've just exposed the liberal propaganda.
All right, let her finish.
I'll explain.
unidentified
The baby is in her body, so the baby and her are being affected, but the baby is part of her at that point.
kaitlin bennett
Does that baby deserve any justice for being abused in that way?
unidentified
I think if we're going to talk about babies being abused, we need to address how...
kaitlin bennett
Let's talk about that after you answer my question.
Does that baby deserve justice for their mom abusing them while they were in the womb and making them addicted to cocaine and fentanyl out of the womb?
And now they have so many conditions messed up.
owen shroyer
I'll tell you how we got here.
kaitlin bennett
Does that baby deserve justice or is that baby deserved to be given whatever that mom deserves, the mom decides to do to her body?
Is it truly just her body if that baby is going to be born addicted to cocaine?
unidentified
Can you give me an example of when this has happened?
kaitlin bennett
You've never seen a baby go through withdrawal?
unidentified
No.
I've never even heard about that on the news.
owen shroyer
So the girl behind says, how did we get here?
Why is this happening?
This is the perfect example of if it can't be applied universally, it's not logic.
It's propaganda.
Now, this leftist college girl here, she doesn't mean that.
She doesn't think it's okay for a pregnant mom to do hardcore drugs and harm the baby like that.
There's no...
I do not believe she actually believes that.
Maybe she does, and she's truly that sick and deranged.
I don't believe that's the case.
She knows she got put into a corner, and now she has to defend that case.
My body, my choice.
Okay.
So can you do drugs with the baby?
Of course not!
You can't make a baby do drugs.
If you're a parent and you give your child drugs, you're going to lose your child.
So of course not.
But what's the logic?
The logic is supposedly my body, my choice.
So ultimately, where does that logic go?
Well then, if you want to do hardcore drugs while pregnant, then your body, your choice, right?
So she was forced to defend it, but of course that's propaganda.
Because it's not.
Your body.
It's a separate body.
And while it still might be your choice to do drugs or not, that should be a crime and you will lose that child.
So you always have a choice to commit a crime.
It's like, you have a choice to abuse your child or not.
We hope you don't do it.
But see, there it is.
If it can't be applied universally, it's not logic, it's propaganda.
So it's not my body, my choice.
It never was my body, my choice.
Because it's a different body.
So the girl says, well, how did we get here?
Because you can't actually defend abortion.
You can't do it.
Not with my body, my choice.
That's not a defense of abortion.
And it shows how ill-prepared...
But it's not even about being ill-prepared.
It's just parroting talking points.
The leftist propaganda that they probably get at their university...
Puts that thought in their head, my body, my choice.
They don't do any research.
They don't know how to actually debate abortion.
They just parrot what they're told.
It's indefensible.
So whenever you get into these debates, the left is progressive.
When you get to the bottom, when you get to the entire depth of the policy debate, they will have to defend death.
They will have to defend death every single time.
It is unavoidable.
It's the bottom of the barrel.
And it will always be the case.
Open borders.
Illegal immigrants come in here and kill people.
Yeah, well, so do Americans.
Abortion.
It's killing a baby.
unidentified
It's my body, my choice.
owen shroyer
Transgender kids.
Hey, a lot of them, the majority grow up to commit suicide.
Well, it's their right.
It's because they don't get the treatment.
You're defending death is what you're doing.
Incredible stuff.
Absolutely stunning.
I think we had some more Democrat madness on our list today, guys, didn't we?
Let me see here.
Oh!
unidentified
Ha!
owen shroyer
Oh my gosh.
Okay, hold on.
I got the headline for this one somewhere on my desk.
Where is it?
Where is the headline of the lady?
Who goes to Africa and discovers it's not exactly what she was hoping.
I got so many stories on my desk, I can't even find it now.
Well, I'll tell you what.
Let's play her report.
This black lady.
Oh, here it is.
Africa isn't poor because of colonization.
It's time to stop making excuses.
And then it's this lady who moved to Africa.
Because she didn't want to deal with the racism in America.
And, well, it didn't really go the way she anticipated in clip 26. But, y 'all, I'd rather go back to America and deal with the racism in America.
The racism.
unidentified
Before I sit here in Africa and deal with the bullshit robbery, the bullshit...
owen shroyer
The robbery?
unidentified
The bullshit scams, the bullshit...
Scam. Too expensive.
The boy's not having no snacks.
The boy's not having no food.
The boy's electricity.
The boy's hot water.
The boy's, uh, um, what's that shit called?
They'll be coming down.
The boy's animals.
It's scorpions outside the house.
It's big-ass spiders.
It's big-ass lizards.
Colorful lizards you ain't never seen before.
All in the room with you.
Sleeping with you.
All the bullshit people trying to scam you when you go outside thinking you rich, so they trying to get more money off of you.
I'm really trying to wrap my head around this shit.
I'm really trying to wrap my head around how...
Are Americans coming to Africa and being happy?
Please comment down below.
Because for me, I'm ready to go.
And I always used to say, if it's up to me, it will be.
And I'm going to go out to Africa and make it happen.
No, I don't want to.
I want to take my businesses back to America.
I want to open up a shop back in America, open up my dentist's office and all the stuff that I was going to do out here in America.
Steady electricity.
owen shroyer
Well, you know, sometimes you gotta learn the hard way.
unidentified
And the only time our electricity in cut off is when we don't pay the bill.
And we got it so good now, we got prepaid electricity, so if we forget to pay the bill, we put some money on their prepaid thing, and it comes right back on in two minutes.
In less than two minutes.
This right here didn't come on for 14 hours yesterday.
I can't deal.
I love the people.
Don't get me wrong.
When I'm outside, I'm having fun.
In other words, she doesn't like white people, she only likes blacks, okay?
Home is where the heart is, right?
When you come back home, you're supposed to feel comfortable, you're supposed to be happy.
I'm not happy.
To live in a house where you look outside and all you see is turkeys and ducks and chickens and sheeps and old malnourished cows.
Hmm.
owen shroyer
Well, sometimes you learn the hard way, is the story there.
But, you know, it's...
Oh, the racism.
Oh, my gosh.
The systemic racism.
unidentified
The systemic racism.
I had to leave the United States because it was so racist.
So I wanted to go to Africa with my fellow blacks.
I've never been before.
But I wanted to go.
I was sick of the whites.
I was sick of the colonization.
I was sick of the racism, the discrimination.
I didn't want to be around the whites anymore.
I wanted to be around the blacks.
So I moved to Africa to start a business, but I can't afford it.
My electricity gets shut off.
There's bugs and lizards all over the place and spiders and scorpions falling out of the sky.
I can't even do business here.
I couldn't find a Kentucky Fried Chicken.
I need to come back.
I'll deal with it.
I'll deal with the country the white folks created.
I guess I'll just have to deal with it.
I'm so excited.
I hate to admit it, but it's better than Africa.
That's not what I thought.
I was lied to.
Take me back!
Wow.
owen shroyer
Must be tough.
We'll let you back.
You can come back.
But what about the racism, huh?
Merrick Garland considers race in sentencing recommendations.
Remember that?
He said white people should get bigger sentences than blacks.
Yeah, of course.
By the way, the FBI reassigned the agents.
Remember that iconic photo where they were all white, by the way?
All the white FBI agents kneeling for St. King George Floyd?
You know, the drug addict, lifetime criminal, put a gun on a pregnant woman's belly.
The hero to the left.
Democrat hero St. George Floyd.
By the way, he probably would have voted Trump.
He was very anti-trans.
So if they really knew who he was, they probably wouldn't like him.
But that's neither here nor there.
So those FBI agents that took the knee, they're being moved and shuffled around.
Let's see.
Racism.
Wanda Sykes.
When was the last time she was relevant?
I guess now.
Wanda Sykes says white people should be embarrassed.
Y 'all need to do something about Trump.
unidentified
Hmm.
owen shroyer
Well, Trump actually got more votes from black Americans than any Republican in modern American history.
And actually, I think that white people, it shouldn't be about skin color.
I think it's all Americans should be proud of what Donald Trump is doing as president.
But you just can't help it.
It's all about race for you.
Maybe you are the one that has the problem with white people.
Maybe she should move to Africa.
She'd probably have a better time than our other friend there previously mentioned.
By the way, the left was spinning up this story.
They got it totally wrong.
Whites only, colored only signs posted in Rockdale Elementary School.
Now, the original response was, look at the white racists!
They're having segregation at the water fountains again!
My God!
Well, it turns out it was actually a liberal that posted them because they wanted their students to know what it was like.
Which, of course, is historically accurate because it was the left that originally segregated the water fountains in the first place.
Thank you for that.

Remember this one?
White farmers sue Biden administration alleging racial discrimination in stimulus package.
Biden's racial equity efforts for farmers of color hit legal roadblocks.
Now, this all went through, and so they had all these earmarked dollars for farmers, but it was for non-white farmers.
You may remember these stories back in 2021 when they first hit and the lawsuit started flying.
Well, these decisions actually ended up getting through.
And now the Department of Agriculture, what was called at the time the American Rescue Plan, it still has these same mandates as far as the funding.
You still, if you're a white farmer, are not getting any access to this.
So the same legal group that sued Biden is actually going to sue the Trump administration.
Now, they don't want to.
And they just came out and made some public statements today.
I forget the name of the law firm.
But one of the legal representatives came out and made public statements today and said, hey, we have these lawsuits.
We're about to sue the Trump administration.
We don't want to.
But it's the same racial discrimination these white farmers faced in the Biden years.
They're now facing the same thing in the Trump years.
So they're assuming the Trump administration is going to do the right thing.
I assume the Trump administration will do the right thing.
Maybe they just don't know about it yet.
It's not on their desk yet.
And they talked about, I forget.
I forget the guy's name or the gal's name that's in charge of it right now.
She was at the cabinet meeting today.
But they said this has been sent to her desk.
So Rollins, I think, was the one that got it.
It was Rollins.
I'm sorry, what was that?
Brooke Rollins.
Yeah, that's right, guys.
So I'm guessing they'll have an answer on that probably by the end of the week.
Maybe it might take a couple weeks.
discrimination against whites that the Trump administration might get sued for, but it was all Biden-Poller.
Now, there was another individual that was targeted by the Biden administration in the farming industry that the Trump administration just did right by.
We'll have that update for you on the other side of this short break.
All right, cutting into the liner for the sake of time, we will be going to that video, the Trump administration riding a wrong from the Biden administration against farmers.
Then we have breaking news, the U.S. and Ukraine announcing they have signed an agreement on access to natural resources.
But we've got Eric Burleson, representative from the great state of Missouri, joining us now.
So while we've got him, I don't want to waste his time.
We'll keep him as long as he's available.
Eric, let's start on the original reason why I wanted to get you on.
You were part of a hearing yesterday on American industry.
This is so key to me, and we hear Trump talk about it a lot.
Obviously, Lutnik and Bessent weigh in constantly as well.
Why isn't this being celebrated more?
Why don't Americans understand how Trump is trying to bring the American Industrial Revolution 2.0 back to the United States?
eric burlison
Owen, I am so glad that you're asking because most people are not paying attention to this.
But this is a critical issue.
And when you study the history of countries, you realize that if we don't return to being the manufacturing, mega-powerful country that we once were, we're going to lose the dollar.
We're going to lose the world reserve currency.
And China will be the one dictating to us how things go.
You know, you look at throughout time when Great Britain was the strongest, had the most GDP production, they were the world reserve currency.
And then it moved to the United States.
And we've been able to hold on to that for a long time.
But after World War II, we produced 60 percent of the goods made in the world was made in the United States.
Today, that number is 11 percent.
And China...
It's producing 40% or more of the world's goods.
So we've got to turn things around.
And that hearing, what gave me hope is that we can't...
Because we've all recognized we can't beat China when it comes to reducing costs.
We just can't.
We can't beat them when it comes to labor costs and other things.
But what we can do is leapfrog them with technology.
And that's what that hearing was about, was about this new kind of...
New revolution in manufacturing that is really exciting.
And so to think about it, for people that might be familiar with Amazon Web Services, they basically created a centralized platform for any small business owner to have some of the most advanced IT functions, core functions possible,
and you're just paying for a limited space on a server and sharing those costs with the...
With the millions of other small business owners around the country, right?
The manufacturing sector is looking to do that with manufacturing.
So you have these manufacturing centers that are going to be popping up around the country where individuals can lease time in those centers and these machines can make anything.
They're basically super advanced 3D printed machines that print metal and different alloys.
And so you can have entire missiles that are being printed today.
You've got parts right now that are already being ordered by Maserati and Ferrari and a lot of Italian car makers that have these very advanced parts.
They're coming to the United States and they're coming to this form of manufacturing in order to make it happen.
And so this is really the opportunity.
That we've been looking for.
Because if you can imagine, this will unleash people from all over the United States to be able to take that idea that you once had or that you've got and be able to put it into fruition because the cost will be so cheap.
And then people can scale up if their products become successful.
owen shroyer
Well, you know, talking about trade and tariffs...
You know, deficits.
It might be a little complex for the average American that's not into that, doesn't do business.
And I don't know how many people are still left.
You talk about what the industrial age of America was like post-World War II.
You know, not everybody was around for that.
But it's pretty easy for Americans to see when you go through some of these old main streets that used to be manufacturing hubs, when you go to some of these major metropolitan areas that used to be manufacturing hubs.
I mean, anybody can see the boarded up buildings.
Anybody can see the rot and decay where there was once a booming economy.
This is what we're trying to bring back.
This is what's been stolen from America.
Eric Burleson is my guest.
We've got a short break right here.
We can talk more about this.
I know there's some other congressional activity happening right now.
He just took a vote.
We'll get his opinion on some of that coming up shortly as well.
Our guest here is Eric Burleson, representative from Missouri.
Busy day on the Hill.
I was just very encouraged when I saw him promoting and attending the hearing on American industry and bringing it back.
It's such a key thing.
It doesn't get enough attention.
And all Americans should be behind it.
Left, right, center, indifferent, totally involved in politics.
Every American should be behind that.
So it was just great to hear Eric involved in that and then talking about it today.
You've been a busy man running around like wild.
I hear the Democrats were up to some shenanigans today during the committee process.
What was the Democrats' behavior like today?
Do we need to get the dunce hat out?
Do we need to bring the nun around to scold them in the corner?
What's going on?
eric burlison
Yeah, they really are throwing a complete tantrum about this reconciliation bill.
I was in two markup committees today.
So I was bouncing back and forth.
I had to put on my tennis shoes, basically, to make it to all these votes.
But the Democrats made it difficult for everybody.
In one committee, T&I, Transportation Infrastructure, I think they dropped over 100 amendments.
Thank goodness they didn't roll call all of them.
But it really stretched out the amount of time.
I think that they were essentially trying to use...
The mechanisms of that to filibuster and slow down these bills.
But at the end of the day, I think that they experienced the pain just as much as we do.
And I think they had to give up eventually.
But in the oversight committee, that got really toxic.
And I think everybody's, not only did they throw in a lot of amendments on there, the oversight individuals, because Jerry Connolly is stepping down as the ranking member, there's a lot of members that are trying out.
For the position of ranking member on that committee.
And as a result, they were absolutely over the top today.
owen shroyer
Well, I get the feeling, and I was talking about this earlier, and it looks like you said something kind of similar to where my intuition was taking me.
Guys, if you put that statement that Eric made earlier today, basically you're saying, hey, you know, we do have conservatives in the House.
We do want responsible spending bills.
There's going to be some fights over this.
But what I see developing, and it sounds like this is why the Democrats are engaging in these stalling tactics, the Democrats know there's going to be pressure on you guys in the House and the Republican Party to get the big, beautiful bill passed.
And we may, as conservatives, fiscal conservatives, may have to take a hit and a sacrifice because we've got to get this bill passed in order to put the fuel into the economy.
It's going to be one of the steps to put the fuel into the economy.
So I kind of understand that.
But with that, I feel like the Democrats are going to stall, and they're going to try to shove as much pork into this bad boy until it reaches the floor.
Do you think that's going to happen?
eric burlison
They're going to try, but they're going to fail.
And so I think that, especially in the House, with the way that the rules operate, then I think that we'll be able to overcome a lot of their objections.
I think that...
If anything, we may have to deal with some of the more moderate members of the Republican conference that don't want to make some serious cuts.
But I think that, look, we have a once-in-a generational opportunity here to right-size government.
We're not going to get another shot at this.
This is it.
This is the one chance we have.
And so that's why I think that when the Democrats were in power, they...
They're willing to risk it all in order to get their big wins, right, to score their big touchdowns.
And they did that whenever they passed Obamacare, through reconciliation.
And they took political heat for it, but they were willing to do it because they knew it would last.
And unfortunately, it did.
Same thing with the Inflation Reduction Act under Biden.
They used reconciliation to jam that through, and they got a big win.
Republicans need to demonstrate...
That we can win, that we can score touchdowns for the American people and for our party.
And that's what...
They're expecting a lot out of us, and that's why I don't think...
I think we can't let them down.
We have got to be bold.
And I'll end on this.
Donald Trump has demonstrated more political courage than I've ever seen.
I mean, his bold vision, he came in, and he came in like a whirlwind with a lot of amazing policies and big wins early on, but...
But Congress has not reciprocated that bold vision.
We've not reciprocated that courage that he's demonstrated.
He's willing to make cuts.
The Doge effort is very bold, and they're willing to do that.
Congress has to step up and make the Doge cuts permanent.
owen shroyer
Well, I think this is going to be the most important thing for Republicans to maintain the House in the midterms, is delivering on these things.
You know, you've got a good approval rating right now.
You're in a strong red district.
Some of these other Republicans might be kind of thinking, what do I need to do to stay popular?
I think the more conservative you go, the more you lean into what the Republican voters are looking for out of the Trump administration in general, I think the better we're going to have a chance to maintain the House in the midterms.
One more question for you today.
This is another one that's not getting much attention, but I think it's very important.
Mike Johnson dealing with this.
Pro-salt Republicans to debate deduction increase on Wednesday.
House Republicans debate state and local tax deduction.
So I guess these are the Republicans that are in the blue states.
A lot of people don't know about the SALT deduction.
To me, it's criminal.
It's another way Democrats steal our money, steal from red states, and give it to blue states.
It's basically these blue states that have the highest state taxes.
They get to deduct it on their federal taxes.
How are they getting away with this?
Are we going to stop this once and for all?
Can we get rid of the SALT deduction?
eric burlison
You know, unfortunately, I don't think that that's where the political headwinds are going.
It looks like the dynamic is that they're going to raise the SALT tax cap.
So the question is, how much are they going to raise it?
And so I think that there's quite a few members that are from our more moderate districts that are from New York and California.
And unfortunately, they're dug in on this topic.
The question is...
My question to them is, how are you going to pay for it?
Because it does have a fiscal impact.
And it's not exactly an item that Donald Trump campaigned on.
He campaigned on no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security.
He didn't campaign on this.
So where are you going to get the money?
And this very same group of people is the very same group that doesn't want to find savings in Medicaid.
They don't want to find savings in the Green New Deal tax credits.
Those are the big areas where we can identify some spending cuts that will pay for these tax cuts.
And look, I think that my attitude is if you want your SALT tax, you're going to have to find the place to pay for it.
owen shroyer
Well, the one thing Trump can do is threaten to cut the federal aid, the federal funding to those states.
And of course, they'd have to buckle at that point.
They have no choice.
I mean, like California relies on federal funding.
Without it, their economy will...
Really take a major hit.
Same with New York, Illinois.
So that's kind of the final trump card, if you will.
All right, my last question for you.
When can we expect to see the one big, beautiful bill, and when do you anticipate you'll be voting on it?
eric burlison
I think that the final deadline is going to be the August recess.
I think that they, my guess, I know they're going to try to do it sooner than that, but my guess is that they will do it leading up to the August recess, and they'll probably build a lot of pressure so that...
Members that want to go home, you know, and that they'll have that kind of pressure put on them during that time.
That's just the way this town works.
owen shroyer
They do it every time.
You know, they do it every time.
Summer vacation, you know, Christmas vacation, Thanksgiving.
Anytime they can put you guys up against the wall and just to say, hey, don't you want to see your family?
They always seem to do it.
But I do think, would you say, though, there's a bit of a culture change in D.C. now that Trump's president?
eric burlison
Oh, absolutely.
As I've said before, he's demonstrated a lot of courage.
A lot of those things that he's done through Doge, like the cutting of USAID, Freedom Caucus members, myself, Eli Crane, others, we were sponsoring those amendments to cut those funds, and we were laughed at by our Republican conference.
We couldn't get it passed.
But now, because of Elon and Donald Trump, it's fashionable.
I think Donald Trump has totally changed this town.
owen shroyer
Yeah, and the Republican Party, I think, is going to have to reform itself in the image of Donald Trump and what the people voted for.
I think it's inevitable, especially if they want to continue to maintain the House and the Senate in the coming midterms.
Eric Burleson, you're one of the good guys, and keep up the great work.
Thank you for coming on today.
eric burlison
Thank you, Owen.
owen shroyer
All right, there he goes, giving us a bit of an update on some congressional activity today.
But there you heard it, thinking August is when we may get a better idea of the big, beautiful bill and when they may finally get to vote on it.
Going to be a lot of back and forth before we get there.
Speaking of political developments, there is just crazy stuff happening in Texas.
Just madness, really.
They've passed a bill, and there's a lot of debate about what it actually means.
But they've passed a bill in Texas to make political memes illegal.
Now, before you get too shocked, because it's pretty jarring, by the way, just so you understand why this happens, the Texas Republicans are Democrats.
You've got the Democrats, and you've got the Republicans, and then you've got the Republicans, and half of them are Democrats.
So it's like, even inside the Republican Party in Texas, it's like they have to...
Fight within the Republican Party to get a majority of the Republicans that aren't Democrats.
It's crazy.
It's totally crazy.
Hard to believe this is what's happening in Texas, but here we are.
Now, they say their work around this is, well, you know, it's kind of like with the Hillary Clinton meme, Douglas Mackey situation where they threw him in jail for a meme.
It's kind of like that.
So they basically want to take that precedent with Mackey.
Douglas Mackey being put in jail for a meme, and they want to now make it a law in Texas.
And then if you are going to do some political meme like that, you have to make it abundantly clear that it's a parody or comedy or something else, which of course takes away the meme value.
So listen to this on the floor.
Brian Harrison is one of the actual Republicans, one of the good guys here in Texas.
unidentified
Listen to this, clip 18. Trying to get my head around this bill, and I appreciate your clarifying remarks, Representative Schatzlein.
I read the bill correctly.
Are you reading the bill to also create a Class A misdemeanor?
And is your understanding that a Class A misdemeanor is actually a crime that's punishable by up to a year in jail?
That is correct.
Okay.
Do you believe that Americans should risk jail time?
For engaging in political speech.
I do not believe that jail time should even be on the table for political speech.
Yeah, I agree.
And I can't remember if it was you who was engaging in the questions with the bill author, but did you hear the bill author just a minute ago say that he, and I quote, I wrote it down.
I don't care about memes.
Did you hear the bill authors say that?
I did.
So I found that very interesting because, well, first of all, wouldn't you agree that memes are sort of a type, a subcategory of satire?
Absolutely.
And I would also say that memes absolutely do play a role in elections.
They do have an effect.
Right.
And a necessary role.
And isn't it also true that political satire has a very long tradition in not just our state but in our country dating back to prior to our founding.
Is that your understanding?
owen shroyer
Even before our founding in other countries as well.
unidentified
Right, and since the bill author says he doesn't care about any memes, I went through and looked through the bill again briefly.
It's a short bill.
I was unable to find any exception in the bill for satire, for memes, for parody, for obvious jokes.
I'm really curious why it wasn't in the bill, but maybe I missed it.
Do you find any exceptions for memes which the bill author says he doesn't care about in the bill?
I have read this bill fully, and I do not find that.
Yeah.
Is it your understanding that this bill, instead of leaving a consequential decision like, for example, what the disclaimer should say, what it should look like, are you aware that this bill hands the full authority to issue regulations which carry the forced and effective law to unelected bureaucrats at the TEC to determine the type and the manner and the size and the way in which these disclaimers are to be?
Are you aware of that?
Is that correct?
marco rubio
That is my understanding.
unidentified
Should we be leaving decisions like that to unelected bureaucrats?
marco rubio
Absolutely not.
unidentified
Yeah, I agree with that.
I'm very concerned about that.
A couple final questions then.
If we have to choose, because in government we can never find...
Perfect equilibrium on most issues.
But if we have to decide here, shouldn't the default presumption in America to be to err on the side of protecting speech, not on the side of restricting speech?
owen shroyer
Absolutely.
unidentified
Do you believe this bill is a restriction on free speech?
I absolutely believe that.
Don't you think that it should be the voters, not politicians and bureaucrats, that should be the ultimate judge on what is protected, free speech or not?
Absolutely, I do.
And wouldn't you agree that regulating political speech based on whether a government bureaucrat determines something...
To be true or false is a hallmark of a totalitarian regime, not of a free people.
I completely agree.
Can you think of anything more important than protecting in the state of Texas than our First Amendment protections?
I cannot.
And in closing, are you aware that this bill, the fact that we are even debating this bill, has made national headlines from coast to coast?
Do you agree with me that it is a disgrace that we bring shame upon our body that we are even deliberating such a measure in the state of Texas today?
marco rubio
I am aware and I do agree with you.
unidentified
I agree.
Thank you for the answers.
owen shroyer
Folks, something stinks in Texas.
Something stinks rotten in Texas.
And now you've got the Governor Abbott here.
I mean, it's like every week he's making statements.
And passing laws against speech.
So you have this meme thing, and now you have, they're trying to criminalize any free speech against Israel.
It's insane what's happening in Texas.
Texas is desperate.
And, you know, Ken Paxton, who is one of the great attorney generals, he's decided to shift to run for Senate, and I believe he'll beat Cornyn.
Because the way the system is set up now, it's totally backwards, but you have more influence and power as a senator than you even do when you're actually a state representative or the attorney general.
But Texas is desperate.
Texas is desperate for a leader.
Texas is desperate for a conservative movement.
unidentified
It is bad.
owen shroyer
I mean bad.
And now I'm looking at Brian Harrison here, and he seems to be...
unidentified
Choosing...
owen shroyer
I don't know if this was a role he anticipated finding himself in, but now here he is.
He seems to be the man of the moment.
And he seems to be a voice now, rising in Texas, that is starting to explain to the people here in Texas, and I guess the United States of America, hey, something stinks in Texas, y 'all, and it's coming from the Republican Party!
It might be a red state, but Republicans don't run it.
It's getting wild.
It is getting wild down here.
Who will rise and save Texas?
We gotta get a new governor badly.
We gotta get Republicans in the Texas state body that are actually Republicans and not liberals and not Democrats.
It's getting bad.
It's getting bad, folks.
And I feel like, you know, I've only lived here almost 10 years now, but it feels like there's something, something is brewing here, and either the Democrats are going to get total control of this state,
and it might still go red, generally speaking, but Democrats are running it.
And this meme bill is just an example.
Abbott, who I don't think is really that bad, but he is not that great either.
World Economic Forum connected.
Bought and paid for by the Israeli lobby.
It's not good.
This is Texas.
We're talking about Texas here.
Texas is supposed to be a shining beacon of conservatism.
Of freedom.
And it's far from it now.
And by the way, this is Greg Abbott's statement.
He says, being anti-Israel is being anti-Texas.
I can't even imagine.
Again, I'm not trying to put on a 10-gallon hat and walk around in cowboy boots like I'm a fifth-generation Texan or something, but I've lived here for almost 10 years.
My dad did live in Texas for some time, too.
And there is a deep connection between Texas and Missouri in American history.
But again, I'm not walking around in cowboy hat and cowboy boots and, you know, get the southern drawl.
But anti-Israel is anti-Texas?
No, that actually does offend me as a Texan.
So I don't really care.
If you're pro-Israel and that's your policy deal, fine.
But don't sit here and act like it's not my freedom of speech to criticize decisions Israel is making.
Or to have geopolitical conversations and debate about Israel's influence on our foreign policy, and now apparently with Texas, with my governor.
Why is the state of Texas' governor talking about Israel all the time?
This is Texas.
You run the state of Texas.
So he releases this whole statement.
You're not allowed to boycott Israel, and if you're critical of Israel, you're critical of Texas, and if you're anti-Israel, you're anti-Texas.
Now, let me tell you where all this is going, which we've been ahead of the curve every step of the way.
And this is another warning.
It's not like it's going to make any difference, but just watch it all happen.
Three arrested for suspicion of arson as Israel battles wildfires.
Arson suspect arrested as authorities probe whether massive fires were started on purpose.
So these big fires in Israel, they're arresting somebody.
They think it was terrorism against Israel.
We'll find out as the time is coming.
And then, of course, you have all the people getting arrested for their anti-Israel speech at the college campuses.
One of them just got released.
Columbia student Mohsen Madawi freed after ICE detention fumbled in court.
He is a permanent resident.
He was originally a refugee from the West Bank.
Now he's out on bail.
The federal agents claimed he was a foreign policy threat.
They made claims about him in court that the judge didn't believe.
And then he said that this was payback and an attack on free speech, a payback for being anti-Israel.
And then his arrest was against his free speech.
And so now there's a movement to release all the other people the Trump administration is arresting for their anti-Israel speech.
Columbia student Moshen Madawi is free on bail after judge orders his release from federal custody.
I am not afraid of you.
Columbia student Moshen Madawi's message to Trump.
Folks, we have to be very careful with this.
And I get it.
This is a contested issue.
It's a hot issue.
The whole deal with Israel.
And I don't care where you stand on this issue.
I'm all for political debate.
Bring it on.
But the Trump administration and Trump supporters better be very careful here, folks.
They better be very careful because you're losing this debate badly.
And you are now, this is totally against free speech.
This is not principled free speech to arrest people for things you disagree with.
Now, you might have a legal path here.
With some of them that aren't American citizens and some other different things you can use against them to take them off the streets and out of the colleges or deport them.
But that doesn't change the fact.
You are now losing this issue when it comes to free speech, and you're losing it badly.
And it's a bad look for me when I see conservatives celebrating people getting locked up for their speech and arrested for their speech.
Now again, you commit a crime on a college campus?
You illegally occupy a building.
You illegally stop people from moving about freely.
That's a crime.
You should be arrested.
The local police, the campus police can deal with you.
But folks, I'm telling you, this is going to create a massive movement.
And where conservatives have now owned the entire field on free speech, we're losing ground fast on this issue.
But I'm going to tell you this right now.
As you see all these massive Muslim demonstrations happening across the country, including in Texas, and these groups are getting bigger and more powerful, They're now going to get louder against Israel's influence, and now all of this is coming to our country, folks.
All of it.
So the United States and the Ukraine have reached an agreement on the rare earth's natural resources deal.
We're going to hear from the White House Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
Here are some of the headlines as the story breaks.
U.S. and Ukraine signed agreement on access to natural resources.
A move that Kiev sought to solidify President Donald Trump's backing in ceasefire talks with Russia.
The deal will grant the United States privileged access to new investment projects to develop Ukraine's natural resources, including aluminum, graphite, oil, and natural gas.
Treasury announces agreement to establish United States Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund.
From the Treasury.
On April 30th, the United States and Ukraine signed an agreement to establish the United States-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund in recognition of the significant financial and material support that the people of the United States have provided to the defense of Ukraine since Russia's invasion.
This economic partnership positions our two countries to work collaboratively and invest together to ensure that our mutual assets, talents and capabilities can accelerate Ukraine's economic recovery.
Under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump, the Treasury Department and the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation will work together with the government of Ukraine to finalize program governance and advance this important partnership.

Thanks to President Trump's tireless efforts to secure a lasting peace, I am glad to announce the signing of today's historic economic partnership agreement between the United States and Ukraine, establishing the United States-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund.
This partnership allows the United States to invest alongside Ukraine to unlock Ukraine's growth assets, mobilize American talent, capital and governance standards that will improve Ukraine's investment climate and
accelerate Ukraine's economic recovery.
The Development Finance Corporation will participate and help to establish this fund in collaboration with the government of Ukraine.

owen shroyer
folks, this is going to benefit all three parties.
The only people that suffer from this are the American deep state and the Ukrainian oligarchs.
Here's how this is going to go.
This is such great news.
It should be celebrated.
But most people, they don't understand geopolitics and the deeper complexities of the deep state, the international deep state.
This is masterclass from the Trump administration.
Masterclass.
And yes.
Trump probably got the final say in Rome during the Pope's funeral in those famous pictures of Zelensky.
This is master class.
Let me explain.
Russia will officially be recognized, or rather Crimea will be officially recognized as part of Russia.
Very important.
Russia has wanted it.
It's very meaningful to Russia.
Very important real estate.
Russia benefits from that.
Now, the United States that's just been robbed for $300 billion by Ukraine and their oligarchs and the deep state money laundering operation, we are going to get that money back because we're going to move into those regions with the rare earths and the minerals,
and then we are going to get access to it.
And these areas happen to be right along and in.

Now Russia, which is sick of NATO, obviously, and sick of NATO's aggression using Ukraine against Russia, now they're going to get a little bit of peace here because the United States is going to be right there in that region as kind of a stopgap between NATO and Russia,
and more importantly, anything that might be coming from Ukraine against Russia.
So now the United States is directly involved in keeping peace in that region because we'll have a presence there.
Now this is where the final line comes in, and if they can accomplish this, then it's truly masterclass work.
Zelensky can no longer be the president of Ukraine.
And if you can have a free and fair election in Ukraine, Where you have a president of Ukraine that actually represents the Ukrainian people and the interests of the Ukrainian people, not the oligarchs in Kiev, not a CIA puppet, not the deep state in the West that uses Ukraine for all kinds of criminal operations,
but a true president of Ukraine, then you can actually sustain peace.
Ukraine can continue to exist as a country, but have good relations with Russia.
Stop the NATO aggression, find peace in the region, and the United States gets our investments back that were stolen in Ukraine.
Brilliant masterclass work.
Should be celebrated by the entire world, specifically the entire Western world.
And let's hope the killing stops.
Masterclass from President Trump.
All right, folks.

Okay, we had mentioned this video earlier.
I also will play the Michelle Obama clip as we've just got about 15 minutes left here.
The Biden administration was trying to steal land from cattle ranchers, targeting cattle ranchers.
Very dastardly moves from the Biden administration.
It was actually kind of like a softcore South African stealing farmland from whites situation.
Literally, it's crazy that that's what was going on, but it is.
Well, the Trump administration just dropped the charges against these innocent farmers.
They spoke in front of the press earlier today, clip 19. My name is Heather Mott.
unidentified
I am the officially elected spokesman by these three.
We would like to thank you all for being here.
We would like to thank the people behind us for being here.
Secretary Rollins, Secretary Noem, Dusty Johnson, Larry Roden, and Mike Brown from the state of South Dakota and Harriet Hageman.
We are incredibly grateful to the Trump administration and all of these key players that have done so much so quickly relative to what we were facing before to get us where we are today.
And I would just like to take a moment to briefly reiterate a bit of what Brooke said.
We are both fifth-generation farmers and ranchers.
Our families have a combined 250-plus years in production agriculture.
We paused briefly in that pursuit in our grandfather's generation when both of my grandfathers fought in World War II.
And Charles' great-grandmother is a four-star war mom, meaning that four of her sons went to war and all four went home.
But before and after fighting for the freedoms of this nation, we have...
Pursued our primary passion that led Charles and I to find each other, which is production agriculture.
And when this hit, it hit at the heart and soul of our place that has been in Charles' family since 1910.
They came to the area in 1907 and purchased the adrenant property in 1910 and have managed it without issue and with great care since.
owen shroyer
And when this unnecessary grievance came to our family, So the land grabbers at the Bureau of Land Management and the authoritarians inside the Biden administration take a big L here.
And I can't wait, really, for these nonpolitical things.
And everything gets politicized.
But the truth is, you know, economic issues should not be political.
Agricultural issues should not be political.
Energy issues, I guess maybe you could argue those are political with the Green News scam and climate change garbage.
Maybe there's room to call those things more political.
But when these things start to align, Trump's economic agenda, Trump's agriculture agenda, and Trump's energy agenda, this is non-political stuff, folks.
This is going to be so great for the country.
We're all going to benefit.
You will see grocery bills, energy bills go down.
You will see an industrial revolution hitting the United States of America.
This is non-political stuff.
This is just great for the country stuff.
It should be celebrated nationwide, and I'm just really glad it's happening.
It really is just fantastic.
Now, Michelle Obama.
All right, we played the clip where she's crying about racism all day, and then she's saying that she has nightmares about Trump.
That's strange.
Now, this clip is being highly contested.
What do you think she means here in clip 22?
michelle obama
I wanted to talk, Marlon, a bit about, you know, just so proud of how you are being a role model for dealing with a child that's transgender.
Absolutely.
And that's, you know, that warms my heart, particularly as a black man.
You know, would you...
Care to share that journey of...
howard lutnick
Well, I learned...
owen shroyer
First of all, why are there so many celebrities with trans kids?
What's up with that?
unidentified
Like...
owen shroyer
Robert De Niro's son just came out as a trans woman?
Which is totally acceptable to the left, by the way.
You can be transgender.
Why can't you...
But I'm just curious, because I'm looking for logical consistency here.
If it can't be applied...
Universally, it's not logic, it's propaganda.
Why can't you be transracial?
I'm waiting to hear an argument.
If you can be transgender, why can't you be transracial?
You're born with your gender just like you're born with your race.
So why can't you be transracial if you can be transgender?
Why?
Of course, I know the reasons why.
It's all political.
It's all about political leverage.
There's way too much political capital in...
Racial identity.
So they can't disturb that.
Whereas they're now inventing new political capital in this LGBTQ plus community.
So that's what's really going on.
But back to the issue.
So did Michelle Obama just admit to being a man or was she referencing the fact that Marlon Wayans is a black man with a trans kid?
That's obviously what's being debated here.
And it's really just so silly.
unidentified
Michelle Obama, Big Mike, I don't know.
owen shroyer
The question is irrelevant to the issue.
Why?
Why are we dealing with this phenomenon of transgender?
And why are all these celebrity children having trans kids?
Isn't it obvious?
Isn't it so obvious?
You know what I've seen?
Every single celebrity that gets a trans kid goes from being washed up or irrelevant to immediately getting a million dollar deal.
An advertising deal, a TV deal, a book deal, a movie deal.
You want to talk about A satanic cult?
You want to talk about sacrificing your bloodline for fame and fortune?
Mm-hmm.
Starting to get it?
Starting to understand how sick they are?
And maybe there's something more.
Maybe there's something more going on.
Maybe they're addicted to something that they need access to.
That's being cut off.
Like, I don't know, adrenochrome?
But hey, we don't want to go full tinfoil hat here now, do we?
Certainly is worthy of conversation.
Certainly is a legitimate question.
Why do all these celebrities have trans kids?
Why is there even such a thing as a trans kid?
If you really want to figure out what the hell's going on, none of it's real.
There is no such thing as a trans kid.
But hey, I say we use the logic against them.
In fact, you know what?
Here's what's going to happen.
I'm going to tell you what's going to happen right now.
If you can be transgender, then you can be transracial.
There's no difference.
Except it's all about political capital and just controlling different identity groups.
But here's what's going to happen if this stuff doesn't stop.
We'll see.
You know, the Trump administration is kind of curtailing it a little bit, but really it's like...
It's just like a seesaw.
And so it's more like if the Trump administration goes after the trans community or the trans issues more, then the more trans people are going to pop up and get louder.
It's just going to become this political seesaw, this political football.
But here's where it's going to happen.
And maybe it's already happening, we just don't know it.
It's going to be like, it's kind of like a dark night situation.
Somebody is going to step up.
It's going to be a man.
And a man is basically going to step up and say he's a woman and is just going to get into these different women's fields, probably in athletics, and just crush the competition.
I mean, just dominate and crush and destroy, rewrite record books, and then there might be some copycats, and then eventually they're going to come out and they'll say, I did this all to prove a point.
I'm not really transgender.
I never was.
I never meant it.
But somebody had to do it and prove this point, and then that's how they're going to go out.
And then maybe you can have a rational conversation.
Or, and or, eventually somebody, it's going to be a white person, maybe an Asian person, but probably a white person.
They're going to file to get into college or to get a job.
Any of these sectors that Give the leverage and the advantage to non-whites or black people, whether it's in the name of diversity or social justice and inclusion, and eventually a white person or somebody that's not black is going to fill out a college application or a job application and say they're black,
say they're African American, and they'll get accepted to college or they'll get the job and then they'll show up and they'll be white or whatever and they'll say, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Says you were black.
You say, I am black.
No, you're not.
What do you mean I'm not?
Transracial.
And then it's going to create this conversation.
There's going to be a giant legal battle.
There'll be a lawsuit.
I only wonder, you know, because you don't even technically have to be, if there is such a thing as a trans person, you do have to have...
The surgeries, you have to have the procedures.
So if you did want to identify, if you did want to be transracial, if you wanted to be black, do you have to do the blackface?
Or is that, how do we...
This is where it all goes, folks.
This is where it all goes.
This is obviously the logical conclusion to where all of this goes.
I don't think the Trump administration is going to be able to stop it.
There's way too much momentum behind it.
There's too much cultural capital, political capital behind it.
So it's not going anywhere.
You might be able to kind of curtail it and stop it from getting too much access, but it'll be back.
It's not going anywhere.
But that's eventually where this is going to go.
You're going to have a dude just step up and just say, okay, I'll just pretend to be a woman for 10 years, whatever, and then I'll eventually come out and say the whole thing was a scam.
Or you're going to have somebody be transracial and basically get all these hand-ups and hand-outs claiming they're black when they're not, and then that'll create a legal fight, and they'll say, what do you mean I can't be transracial?
You're a bigot.
It's where it's all going to go.
That's obviously the logical conclusion to this.
Unless we can just stop the madness now, which would be preferable, but I don't know.
Now, this is a funny admission from Tim Walls.
Tim Walls says Kamala Harris picked him for vice president to code talk to white guys.
Now, listen to what he says here in this clip, but let me explain what's actually being admitted.
It's a lot deeper than what he says here, but here he is admitting it, clip 20. I'm a team player.
unidentified
I'm with it.
And there's folks that I recognize are smarter than me.
They analyze this.
What team do you play for?
You put your input in.
Running a campaign that had never been run before, 100 days, in the situation we were at, running against a very unusual opponent on the other side.
And, look, my job was to do it.
Look, I knew I was on the ticket.
I would argue because we did a lot of amazing progressive things in Minnesota that improved people's lives.
But I also was on the ticket, quite honestly, you know, because I...
I could code talk to white guys watching football, fixing their truck, doing that, that I could put them at ease.
I was the permission structure to say, look, you can do this and vote for this.
Okay, that's good.
owen shroyer
Let me explain to you what this phenomenon actually is.
Because it's beyond what he's admitting to, saying, yeah, I was on the ticket because, you know, I'm supposed to code talk to white guys or tell white guys it's still okay to vote for Kamala Harris.
Do you understand what is actually happening here?
Do you understand that the Democrat Party is now making decisions, maybe not solely based yet, but we're close.
But for the sake of understanding, the Democrats are making political decisions solely based on identity politics.
That's it.
You say...
Well, why would they pick Kamala Harris?
She was a complete travesty as a candidate.
They picked her because she's a black woman.
That's it!
unidentified
That's literally it!
owen shroyer
Same for Tim Walz.
They say, we need a white guy.
So they picked a white guy.
Why didn't they pick Shapiro?
Because he's Jewish.
It's all identity politics for them now.
That's what they're admitting here.
Why did Joe Biden put Brown Jackson on the Supreme Court?
Because she's black!
They're done, folks.
They're done.
They're done with merit.
They're done with attributes.
They're done with experience.
They're done with accomplishments.
It's over.
All they care about now is identity politics.
That's it.
This is the ground they've laid.
This is the field they've sowed.
And they went all in in the 2024 election.
Now, I don't know where they go from here.
They've got an identity crisis, no pun intended, on their own hands.
But that's what it is.
Under the four years of Joe Biden, every decision the Democrats made was based almost entirely on identity politics.
And obviously, you see how...
Lunatic fringe, that is, not to mention dangerous.
Look at Katenji Brown-Jackson on the Supreme Court.
That is almost a crime against our country.
But that's it.
They can't help themselves.
They're obsessed with identity politics.
It's their new religion.
They don't know what to do.
They've put so much political capital in it, they have to go forward.
Even in a losing effort.
But now what do they do?
By the way, as we predicted this...
Can anybody tell me where Karine Jean-Pierre is?
Anybody seen or heard from Karine Jean-Pierre?
I think she did get a book deal, and that's nice.
You know, they get a little book deal.
What did I tell you?
I said Jen Psaki quit the job as the White House press secretary because she knew it was going to kill her career.
Now Jen Psaki has a network news show and her...
Profile is growing in the media.
And look, I obviously don't like her politics, but she's actually not bad.
She actually does a decent job.
She'll probably be around for a long time.
Karine Jean-Pierre?
unidentified
No.
owen shroyer
She destroyed her career.
Lying for the Biden administration every day for three years.
Psaki saw it coming, folks.
She got out.
She got out.
By the way, other...
Media commentary we got right.
Guess who is on the rise in the ratings?
CNN!
MSNBC tanking.
CNN on the rise.
Specifically Abby Phillips because she has the panel with Scott Jennings.
I told you CNN was making a little comeback here.
I'm not telling you they're not fake news.
They're obviously fake news.
Well, now Jennings says he's mulling running for Senate in Kentucky.
If he gets Trump's nod, he'll do it.
I think it'd be a good thing.
Look, I love Thomas Massey, but he's not going to win the Senate race.
They'll make sure of it.
We need him in the House.
But I like Jennings to replace McConnell, better than the guy that just lost the governor's race, Bashir.
So I think this might be happening.
All right, that does it for the show.
21-hour break.
We'll see you tomorrow.

I can hear my talking and going, wow.

I agree.
It's almost like an out-of-body experience.
I didn't tell you that.
It's like you're behind yourself.
roseanne barr
That is what it feels like.
But my brain's going really fast.
You know, because my brain, sometimes it goes so fast that I can't get it out on people.

All it does is increase electrochemical activity in the mitochondria, but that's a big deal.
roseanne barr
No, I really like it.
I'm going to have to get on this stuff.
