America's Mayor Live (602): President Trump's Vision for a Golden Age of America
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Good evening.
This is Rudy Giuliani.
This is America's Mayor live from Palm Beach, where it is beautiful out.
And in a little while, we'll show you some pictures from Palm Beach, which is where the president spends weekends.
And then we're going to show you pictures from the swamp, where the president spends all week working 24 hours a day.
And you'll see why he likes to come back to Palm Beach.
I thought the president's breakthrough on Gaza was brilliant.
The statement the other day that I think even took my friend Bibi by surprise, which was that the president was willing to have America take over and run Gaza.
You see that sort of in a...
Just in a vacuum, you know, without the surrounding facts.
When you see it with the surrounding facts, it's the first creative thought on Israel in 30 years.
I mean, this two-state solution is like, what do they say?
If you make a mistake, if you do it a second time, you're really stupid, right?
A third time, you're probably out of your mind.
You make the mistake 40 or 50 times, well, then there's something really wrong with you.
Probably institutionally as demented as Biden.
The two-state solution cannot work, given the current Palestinian Authority, the current group of Palestinians who want to kill the Jewish people.
Oh, and by the way, you and me.
This is why they don't let them in Jordan, and this is why they don't let them in Egypt.
Because they killed many Jordanians.
And they want to kill Sisi because they're part of the Muslim Brotherhood.
So why would Israel, after all this time, agree to have people who are dedicated to their destruction on their doorstep?
Not even willing to agree to forego that.
So it never made any sense.
It made sense only from Arafat's point of view so that constantly he could steal money, and money would be flowing there from the USAID and all of our corrupt entities of the American government.
So the Gaza proposal has now created a great deal of stirring and a great deal of Conversation, and of course a great deal of phony criticism.
But the reality is that it's moving the conversation along to the point that Trump has made it clear that they're not going to be allowed back in Gaza.
Ever?
Or for a while?
Of course they shouldn't be allowed back in Gaza.
They are committed to killing their neighbors.
That means we just have another war.
So he's got to get people to agree to take the Palestinians.
And in a few minutes we'll show you how he did that.
Already made a very, very big step in that direction, which, of course, the press misses because they'll give him credit for nothing.
I think he has made clear that this piecemeal release of hostages is going to come to an end.
Now, it could be...
That he saw the images of the release of the three Israelis.
I guess it was on television on Sunday.
People say he saw this on the way to or back from the Super Bowl.
What am I talking about?
I'm talking about the release of Eli Sharabi.
Ohad Ben-Ami and Or Levi.
And they were taken on October 7, like many of the hostages were taken.
And Sharabi left behind his wife and daughters, who were hiding, as far as he knew, in their bomb shelter.
Ben-Ami was taken out of his home in his underwear, along with his wife.
Well, she was returned in the first round of hostage releases.
And Levy had arrived at the Nova Music Festival just minutes before the attack began with his wife, who was later killed by captives.
Now, I point this out because they were held for almost 500 days in horrible condition.
And the two men, Sharabi and Levy, Whose families had been killed didn't know that.
So when they were released in an extraordinarily inhumane way the other day, they thought they were going to be reunited in the case of Mr. Sharabi with his wife and children, children of the case of Mr. Levy with his wife, Enov.
And they found out that the animals had killed them.
Amen.
Thank you.
I am never told.
Now, President Trump saw this Holocaust scene, really.
He saw this as a Holocaust scene.
And he was on Air Force One on Sunday night.
And this was his quote.
I watched the hostages come back and they look like Holocaust survivors.
They were in horrible condition.
They were emaciated.
I don't know how much longer we can take it.
I guess we can take it until Saturday.
I'm sure this is what motivated him to say, they better all be released by Saturday or all hell is going to break loose.
Now, if you think he's posturing, there may not be a Gossett to govern.
I want to show you...
I have a picture of Gossett.
Well, why don't you show that picture and I'm going to show the comparison, the comparison picture.
Okay?
So those are the three men who were released, two of whom, oh, their names are Eli Sharabi, Ohad Ben-Ami, and Or Levy.
Those are the three that were returned.
But Mr. Sharabi, Mr. Sharabi, he's the one on my left.
I don't know where.
He'd be the man in the corner without the sunglasses on.
Well, now that, let's use this.
This is much better.
Let's use my screen.
Because I have it there for a purpose.
That is Eli Sharabi a short time before he was seized.
I want you to look at that face, okay?
Now I want you to look at his face the other day after spending time for almost 500 days in a Hamas concentration camp and tell me that we're not going through another Holocaust.
Well, now it won't move.
Well, we'll get it to move.
Don't worry.
Nope, wrong.
There we are.
That's Mr. Shirabi today.
Okay?
There he is, right there.
That's him today.
Those are the two animals that let him out with him not knowing that his family had been killed.
That's him then.
That's him now.
That's him then.
That's him now.
That's him then.
That's him now.
Tell me that's not the Holocaust.
You saw the other two.
I don't have pictures of them before.
You saw what they look like.
They look like the damn skeletons they were taken out of Auschwitz.
And we're standing by watching it?
The whole world?
No wonder President Trump had it.
I would not want to be a Palestinian on Sunday if these people aren't returned on Saturday.
Look, we're going to find out that of the 70 or so, 30 of them are already dead.
A lot of the people that are there probably don't know that the people at home are dead.
Like Mr. Sharabi and Mr. Levy didn't know that.
Why are we putting up with this?
Do you realize if we put up with it, we put up with more of it?
This should have been confronted 500 days ago.
We don't negotiate with hostages.
I am willing to debate anybody you want me to debate that there is no doubt we are to save more lives if we had gone and taken a very strong course.
This might have been a difficult one for extrication because of the tunnels.
I don't know.
I'd have to check with special forces that are remarkable.
They can do miracles in getting people out.
Their record is beyond 90%.
Now, we're talking when they're held in hostage camps or they're held in homes.
I don't know.
It would seem to me there'd be more difficulties when, like these people, they're held in dungeons with rats and all the way in the ground, in the middle of the ground.
You can see they didn't feed them.
They let them out.
When they let them out, they humiliate them.
And Netanyahu and his defense minister are being tried in the crooked terrorist international court of criminal justice.
I mean, they're kind of like the D.C. District Court.
So I don't know.
I don't think anybody is exaggerating when they say something like this, and this was a result of those images, that this, on a smaller scale, But my gosh, you know, if it's you, it's not a small scale.
This is another Holocaust.
They came in, they slaughtered people, they raped them, they beat them.
They killed children in front of their parents.
They killed parents in front of their children.
They focused their attack on civilians.
When you look at all the plans that have been taken, this was an attack where the military were collateral damage.
The civilians were the primary damage.
And then Israel.
Gets to blame for going after civilians when they do everything they can to avoid them.
Are we going to unravel this communist propaganda?
Are we going to unravel it?
Are we going to stop pretending that the Palestinian Authority and Israel are moral equivalents?
My God, they don't even belong in the same world.
The Israelis conduct war in order to defend themselves With an attempt to do the minimum amount of damage to civilians, almost in a way that makes themselves less effective and kills more of their own people.
So, let's take one more look at that man's face, please.
Let's take one more look at Mr. Sharabi's face.
That's his face there.
You know what that man went through?
Once again, that was his face.
Right there.
That was his face.
That's what they did to him.
That's what the animals that some of your children or who the hell, who the hell that they are, but these people from elite colleges and whatever, they're demonstrating for the people who did that to him.
I, I, um, I hope they're all released on Saturday.
Bye.
I think they will be.
So far, no one's really ignored Trump, which was smart.
Very, very smart.
But if they do, if they do, you're heading straight to hell.
The way you're taught to kill us and kill Jews, I mean, you've got no chance.
I mean, don't listen to that paradise crap.
You headed straight to hell, and there ain't going to be no virgins for you.
Virgins have been all used up.
They're gone.
So Trump today imposed a 25% tariff on steel, aluminum.
This is independent and for a totally different reason.
Then the tariffs that were imposed on Mexico and on Canada, which actually may be in abeyance right now, and the 10% tariff on China.
The 25% tariff on our two neighbors is to get them to cooperate with us and help us stop the invasion of the United States by hostiles.
Included among all those people who come in over the border, the 3.7 million that came in in one year, the 14 or 15 million that came in during the Biden administration.
Yes, okay, we'll grant there are probably some, but would you call them good people that violate the law?
I don't know.
Not as bad.
They all begin by showing they're not going to be good American citizens because they violate the law.
More people came in that way under Biden in the invasion than came in at Ellis Island.
Over 65 years, 12 million people came in at Ellis Island.
They were identified.
They were vetted.
They were kept out if they had illnesses.
Either permanently or temporarily.
And they became one of the greatest immigration flows in history.
They built...
I mean, you go back even further before Ellis Island, they built the railroads.
The Irish built the railroads.
The Germans built town after town after town.
The Italians...
Italians built everything!
And they were the second most lynched people in history, right behind the black people.
So it wasn't like an absolutely positive experience.
Now think about the Irish.
They came here during the Civil War, and then people were paying them to go fight for them and die.
And Irish need not apply.
Catholics need not apply.
Jews need not apply.
They're Jewish people.
Big migration also pretty much around the same time and overlapping with the Italian immigration.
Think of what they've done and what they've accomplished.
Think of how they're being treated now.
They're our fellow Americans.
Just think the way they're being treated.
You look at that man.
He's not a Jew.
He's not a Catholic.
I mean, that's not the only thing he is.
He's a human being.
And although he's Israeli, not American, he shares something with us.
He shares our basic religious beliefs.
That's really important.
And he shares the belief in liberty and freedom.
And boy, that's pretty damn precious, particularly in that part of the world.
And look what they did to him.
Look what they did to his family.
Gotta stop.
We've got a president finally who's going to stop it.
So the 25% tariff, the purpose of this tariff is to really preserve our steel industry, to preserve our aluminum industry.
We can't farm out everything so that we become a lazy, incompetent country.
Who, for example, may not have the necessary chips to do enough computers because we've let China dominate that area.
Yeah, yeah, we dominate with Taiwan.
We dominate the area for the complex chips.
And China needs us for that.
And we are, and we are, and credit one thing, for building up our share of that market.
Which I think he got up to about 13%.
It was way down.
And I'm sure Trump will get it way up.
But even though you've got to consider price, right, and the consumers and inflation and everything else, you've got to balance that with national security.
And for us to preserve our self-sufficiency, it's important.
That we maintain our capacity to make enough steel, to produce enough food, to produce enough medicines, so we don't have to count on...
Certainly, first objective, so we don't have to count on our enemies.
And China is our enemy.
And then number two, so we don't have to count on the people that...
Can sometimes be very difficult.
And third, I'm not sure we want to even completely count on our friends.
At least, you know, we can count on them more, but we should at least have the ability to function if we have to on our own.
After all, we're the biggest, richest nation in the history of the world.
We should be self-sufficient, even if then once we are basic self-sufficient, we can grow beyond that.
I think ultimately we're going to have lower prices and a better economy.
Now, I'm not an economist, but I ran maybe the fourth or fifth most complicated budget in the country, maybe in the world, and I ran it so that it had surpluses, and it almost never, ever had surpluses.
I ran it so it actually had tax deductions.
Never had tax deductions.
When I gave the first tax deduction, my deputy mayor and best friend Peter Powers walked in.
He said, congratulations, my first year I was in office with a 45 to 6 Democrat city council.
You want to know how I did it?
I'm not going to tell you.
Because I may have to do it again.
Who knows?
It's a secret.
Magic.
Republican magic.
I worked for Ronald Reagan, remember?
He did the same thing.
He got it through a Democratic Congress.
So, the reality is you have to have a balance.
And this whole nonsense with terrorists is a very simplistic view.
Trump uses them for different purposes in different ways.
Like, if you calculate all the tariffs, well, then it's ridiculous.
But a lot of these tariffs are tactical.
What did he get out of the two with Canada and Mexico?
He's got about 10,000 troops now from Mexico's side down on the border.
He's got an equivalent number up in Canada.
He's got them doing everything he wants to try to stop the flow of fentanyl.
And the flow of criminals, which is beyond ever before in our history.
He's got them cooperating with us rather than against us.
He's got Mexico deathly afraid that he is going to declare the cartels terrorist groups, in which case we can stop all funding for them.
And it may include our being able to figure out That they do business with the government of Mexico.
What do you think?
So, President Scheinbaum is quaking in her boots that we don't get too far into the cartels because they may be too far into her government.
But somebody's got to shake it out, and who better than the president that isn't afraid of anything?
When you hear tariff, put on my show at night and I'll tell you what it's for.
They're for different purposes.
The steel tariff is so that we maintain our ability to be independent, not completely, let's say emergency independent, for steel or for aluminum.
Eventually we're going to have to do this with food.
We've got to look at what do we need to survive.
If everybody cuts us off.
Not what do we need to prosper.
That we can do by trading with the whole world.
And remember, all these idiots, including the Wall Street Journal, who are pontificating about tariffs and free trade.
We haven't had free trade.
It isn't free trade.
You can't do free trade with China.
They cheat like hell.
Free trade presupposes fair trade.
The concept of a market is a concept that all men are angels.
And that's why we have to have laws against insider trading.
That's why we have to have laws against fraud that preserves a free market, a fair market.
Thank you.
a partner who brought him in, he come step outside of me.
Throw the fucker out.
Throw him out.
Throw him out.
He said, you're going to say goodbye to him?
I'm not going to say goodbye to him.
Just get him out and tell him the next time he comes here, maybe the FBI will be.
Did the same thing in Brazil.
I walked out.
Walked out on the governor.
Because all of a sudden it sounded to me like they were trying to insert people in that were looking for kickbacks.
Wasn't going to let it get that far.
I walked out.
And then there were plenty I never applied for because I know how crooked they are.
So I guess I never felt disadvantaged by it because at the time, like Donald Trump was and Musk was, I was very, very popular.
Everybody loved me, even the Democrats.
Then I represented Donald Trump and a certain part of them decided they want to put me in jail for the rest of my life.
But this Foreign Corrupt Practices Act has to be reined in, and there's got to be a lot of discretion in applying it.
Maybe the first time civil penalties and maybe some understanding for the conditions.
How about a distinction between extortion and bribery?
There are places in which American businesses are extorted to have to pay this money.
There are places in which American businesses are extorted to have to pay for the rent.
There are places in which American businesses are extorted to have to pay for the rent.
There are places in which American businesses are extorted to have to pay for the rent.
The Justice Department is way ahead of anyone in getting rid of the bums.
I mean, they've gotten rid of a lot of the lawyers, a lot of the J6 lawyers, a lot of the lawfare lawyers, and a lot of the Weissman-type crazy nuts who, my God, will destroy you if you're not careful.
I mean, they really are a problem.
This is...
That's Emil.
If you want to see what he looks like, guys.
Shall we put that up?
There is Emil.
Taken a couple days ago.
And I would think...
I would think that...
I would think that...
Exercise of discretion in this team that they have in the Justice Department, I would say, I think they would exercise discretion to make sure that this statute, this Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, is done with common sense.
Emil, by the way, comes from Seneca Falls, New York.
Graduated from the university at Albany.
And he spent two years of paralegal in the Southern District of New York.
In the best attorney's office in the world.
So, Emil, congratulations.
You've done a great, great job.
A great job.
I don't know who's doing the best job, but...
Nobody could be doing better than Tom Holman.
So how about this?
The numbers are down.
The numbers of people coming...
300 or...
From 8,000 on a typical day to 300. 300!
I mean...
It's going to be zero pretty soon.
I know it.
Pretty soon, if not now, already.
We already have people returning and coming in.
That is possible.
We have large numbers now coming to the border and turning around.
Now, unless we get more operators on the other side of the border, we've turned around.
But right now, we can count them because some of them are still...
I think that...
I think it'd be interesting to sort of keep watch on that I'd be able
to do it.
I think it'd be interesting to see if I could do it.
I think it'd be interesting to see if I could do it.
I think it'd be interesting to see if I could do it.
And a lot of very interesting things coming up.
Well, the case, as you know, was brought under very, very strange circumstances.
He had, I mean, he had, of course, made some terrible mistakes.
In inviting so many illegal aliens to come to New York and making it so almost like a vacation experience.
They were being promised luxurious accommodations.
Like some of the money right now is being held up for luxury hotels.
They were being promised much better treatment than our homeless and veterans.
They were actually given cash, and they were given welfare, and they were given education.
And then eventually he gave them a credit card.
And so I guess when he turned on Biden and started attacking him for an open border, which was the cause of New York,
and of course on Governor Abbott calling him a racist, For sending people to New York, you can imagine that the Biden people probably figured, hey, this is the last guy that should be complaining about us because he helped to create his own problem.
And then given the ways of the Biden administration, that meant they were going to target him for criminal prosecution, which is what they do.
That's what they did to Menendez.
That's what they did way back to Trump, to me.
To Peter Navarro, to Steve Bannon, and you go on and on, Professor Eastman.
So, I have no doubt that he would not have been prosecuted had he kept his mouth shut, the way Hochul isn't prosecuted.
And boy, if she's not screwing around with that deal for...
COVID tests where hundreds of thousands more were spent in California and then hundreds of thousands were given to her campaign or what she's been doing for a decade now with that stadium in Buffalo, which is costing more than it needs to cost, let's put it that way.
And where a husband is going to benefit mightily from the building of it because of his position with the concession company.
But in any event, they looked at him because he opened his big mouth and went after Biden.
God bless him that he did that.
So the Justice Department taking a look at the case.
And the case is...
I can tell you absolutely it's not a case I would have brought.
God would have thought it was chicken shit.
I'm just not going to prosecute a mayor, a sitting mayor.
It would be the first time in history a sitting mayor was prosecuted in New York for upgrades on plane tickets.
And his only action for the so-called bribe giver was asking that a building situation be expedited.
It's a little bit too close to what he should be doing anyway.
And upgrades, It seemed like a lot of those things happened without the public official.
That's done at the secretary level, even when you're a borough president.
That's what he was at the time.
He wasn't mayor at the time.
He was a borough president.
And he spent a lot of time going back and forth to Turkey.
Look, it could be criminal or it could not.
But you don't bring cases that could be criminal or could not.
Against a sitting mayor with all the damage that that does to the confidence that people have in a just system.
Here's the old saying, and of course it doesn't mean it exactly this way.
If you're going to go after the king, you better kill him.
So, I mean, that's the problem they have with the cases against Trump.
First of all, Trump was innocent.
I mean, they were just made up.
But even the way they were made up...
What they made up was bullshit.
You know, falsely describing a non-disclosure payment as a legal fee.
I mean, Hillary Clinton did that.
I'm not going to say everybody does it, but everybody that gets an opportunity to do it does it.
And it was a legal fee.
It was paid to a lawyer.
Yeah, to be somewhat delicate about what it was for.
But no one's the worst for it.
It was a legal fee.
And the allegations were it was to cover up either a truthful allegation of an affair or sex or a false allegation of sex.
Of course you want to cover it up.
You have a right to.
If you pay, you have a right to.
Nobody else is gonna get hurt.
And it's like the fraud case against Trump.
Nobody lost any money.
Where's the fraud?
Fraud is about losing money.
So I think Adams, you know, was rolled up in that.
And I think the Justice Department dropping the case is absolutely right.
The way it was done, I guess, by Pam, or maybe by Bove, who I mentioned, was to drop it without prejudice.
What that means is it can be brought again by the new U.S. attorney, who they would have confidence in.
Because he's their appointment, and therefore he'll make the decision based on, is there a case?
Not based on, oh gee, he said bad things about Joe Biden.
And I think he'll make the decision to not go with the case.
I think the real question, and I had this conversation with a lawyer close to the situation over the weekend.
The real question is, what else is involved?
And what are they investigating?
The thing that troubles me about the whole Adams situation are the very, very large amounts of money being paid for illegal alien services, like the luxury payment that Musk just stopped.
It's been going on from the beginning.
And then, Adams, an emergency has been declared, and there's no bidding.
Now, you go back a little, Adams had some of these situations as a borough president with homeless contracts that also seemed to be pretty damn expensive, which means maybe they had room in them for kickbacks, right?
And I'm not sure whether they went through competitive bids or not.
I don't know.
But by decurring an emergency, you don't have to do competitive bids, which, by the way, is why the Democratic governors and mayors love to hang on to the pandemic and wanted the emergency long after it was over, because they wouldn't be subject to all the rules that protect you against fraud.
And then go pick their friends, be making money.
Or they get kicked back to themselves.
Now, in Adams' case, it's a question, I always say, of is he Ed Koch or not?
Had that going on?
He had the big crooks, like Donald Matthews and Stanley Friedman, who I put in jail.
And then down further along the line, I mean, they were kicking around for all kinds of things.
judgeships and violation contracts, other contracts.
Although a majority of people didn't believe this, he didn't know about it.
Thank you.
I would tell you that he did.
He didn't know about it.
He proved it.
But it wasn't to prove it.
In this case, I was rather sure that he never did it.
He would go up my temper tantrums and attack me and call me vicious.
At one point, I didn't appoint three of his judges.
I didn't appoint them because they were involved in shit with Donald Manus.
That's why I didn't appoint them.
But he didn't know.
He knew that.
He was just gone ahead and done it.
And instead, he attacked me.
And I was doing the right thing.
But I guess it made him look bad or whatever.
And then he became friends again.
And he's a strange guy.
But an interesting mayor.
And not all bad.
Not great.
Because it's impossible in New York City the way it's structured.
For a Democrat to be a great mayor.
Because a whole system will be working around him that's corrupt.
It's like what Musk is taking apart right now.
Donald Trump could be a wonderful president, but right below him there's all kinds of corruption because he doesn't get rid of the people that are corrupt.
And the reason they're yelling and screaming so much, the Democrats, is because he's breaking up their game.
And it isn't a game.
This is billions and trillions we're talking about.
I mean, Fauci?
You know, USAID put money into Fauci.
They put money into the Wuhan Virology Laboratory, and the Democrats want to maintain it.
What kind of scoundrel are you that you want to maintain?
They give money to a run by a child.
Are they fighting to keep it?
No.
I can't tell.
And I'd rather not know.
So in the UK, I don't know if they've passed this law or they want to pass this law.
Let me take a look here.
Oh, actually, no.
No, the UK has just ordered Apple to build a backdoor that would allow the British government to download and read encrypted data.
Right now, it's encrypted end to end if you use it right.
FBI originally.
Originally opposed to it because they want that back door so they can get in, actually has now come out in favor of it because of the vast amount of theft that goes on, identity theft and other forms of theft, including government secrets.
And England wants what they like to call in England as a snoopers charter.
And other countries have attempted to do it.
U.S. technical companies have refused.
So the suggestion is that we pass a law that requires the companies that operate in the United States to have a backdoor and never to remove it, irrespective of what England tells them or anybody else.
And if they want to have an American market, they just can't have a U.K. market.
And I think we win.
I have no idea what is possessing the UK to want to do that.
I know they figure you can pick up a couple of crimes that way, but you're just helping China take away the last little bit of privacy we have if they haven't taken it all away anyway.
As you know, the president has put out all the or is going to put out all the files on the Kennedy Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy assassination.
Yesterday it was revealed that 2,400 records have been found that have never been looked at before with 14,000 pages of material.
That a disclosure board was supposed to review but never has.
So no one knows what's in them.
How could that be?
How could that be?
After all these years and all the...
2,400 files.
14,000 pages.
This thing was the most investigated except for the J6. It's the most investigated thing in the history of the world, I think.
And it turns out that this happened before the FBI became the Biden secret police.
The Gestapo with the guns and the machine guns and the military uniform.
I don't know where the FBI got those military uniforms.
Well, we're going to take a short break.
And then we will be right back and we will have with us.
Thank you.
I'm back with America's Mayor Live, and I apologize for the technical difficulties.
There's been a problem with the Wi-Fi.
So we're using alternative Wi-Fi on Palm Beach Island, or at least our section of it.
I think it's probably the whole island.
Lucky the president isn't here, but I'm sure he's got a special system for Mar-a-Lago.
So if you can, can you show the board for a moment?
So that is just an example from last Sunday.
I just want you to see the difference in performance so far without legislation, right?
No law has been passed that changes immigration into the United States.
This is all a question of whether you take seriously the sovereignty and security of the United States or you're a traitor like Joe Biden and you don't.
So if we take a good look, We see that on Sunday, 303 people came in.
Okay?
Number of migrant encounters in Texas, 303. Typical day in December, 8,000.
That's ridiculous, right?
And that's just completely, absolutely ridiculous.
No change in the law.
Not a single change yet.
No change in the law.
Migrants released into the United States after border encounter, 6% under the Trump administration.
Each day under the Biden administration, 70% or average of 5,000 a day.
I don't know.
What the hell is 6% of 303, 6, 12, about 20 people as opposed to 5,000?
So I don't know.
I don't know how you can more graphically or dramatically illustrate the difference between these two administrations.
So now we can take that off.
Unbelievable.
Unbelievable.
So today, the president met with the King of Jordan.
And you should know that the breakthrough that he made is much more important than you think because Jordan has a long history with the Palestinians going back to this king's grandfather who was killed by a Palestinian.
That's the king, the present king of Jordan.
His wife is half Palestinian, by the way.
Do we have a picture of her?
Yeah.
During the course of my conversation, you can show that.
So that man's grandfather killed by a Palestinian terrorist, his father,
and and his father was almost assassinated two or three times by the Palestinians.
And then it led to the expulsion of the Palestinians from Jordan.
And the fact that no matter what they say, I mean, they'll say, well, they accept some Palestinians.
They do not take Palestinians.
As you know, just a few days ago, when the president called them first before making his announcement, and then in the wake of his announcement, both...
Palestine and both Jordan and Egypt said, as they often said, as they said to Biden, we will take no Palestinians.
And you know the reason now in Jordan.
The reason is that the royal family of Jordan has been, one of them killed, and numerous attempts made against the second.
And I don't think they tell us about the attempts made against this particular king.
But he's quite convinced if he lets enough Palestinians in, they'll overtake him and kill him.
Which is why he expelled at least a million, probably a lot more than that.
Interesting thing.
The king's wife is half Palestinian.
I don't know why that bothers me, but I just don't understand.
It doesn't take any Palestinians.
And Egypt does not, for a different reason.
Well, not really.
A different reason is they're terrorists.
The Palestinians are terrorists.
They really developed from the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.
That's where Arafat came from.
And the Muslim Brotherhood, of course, is a deadly enemy of President Sisi.
So you're letting in the Palestinians, and he's gone too.
And we're supposed to take him.
Or you're supposed to plant them right next to Israel where they are going to do the same thing as soon as they can again.
No, it doesn't work.
I mean, this is like making the same mistake for 30 years.
And the one thing Trump isn't is stupid.
So his suggestion that we would take over and regularize the place in the absence of another one is a pretty damn good suggestion.
But I think it'll result in another damn good suggestion because the king made a little...
Dent today, but a big one?
He's going to take 2,000 Palestinian children.
I know, doesn't sound like a lot, but it's a dent.
So we had a chance to talk to Kara Kastrid over today, our correspondent at the White House, about that and the day at the White House and Elon Musk.
So let's listen to that.
And now we're going to go to Eric Atherova, who's at the White House.
She was at the White House today and covered the Elon Musk conference, but also covered the whole day.
So give us a little breakdown of what happened today.
Well, it was an exciting day.
You know, this is new to me, too, so being here has been exciting.
And I got to witness a really awesome thing today.
The King of Jordan came in, and he, you know, came in a motorcade down the driveway.
I met President Trump right at the door.
And, you know, the military was there from all four branches.
Each one was holding a flag of each of the 50 states.
So to see that for the first time was pretty special.
And then to see President Trump greet him at the door, the press was there obviously taking photos and throwing out questions.
Then they went inside for their bilateral meeting, which in my opinion went really well.
I think that it was really, you know, it was better than expected.
A lot of people...
Going into this thing, it was going to be a lot of contention.
It was going to be horrible and uncomfortable.
But in my opinion, I think that it went really well.
Yeah, it sure did.
I mean, it's quite a breakthrough that the King of Jordan accepted Palestinians.
Now, I know it doesn't seem like a lot, 2,000 Palestinian children.
But if you think of Trump's negotiating style, the best thing to do was to have a meeting where they could come out with something they can agree with instead of fighting.
And then they can move on.
They haven't taken Palestinians since, the Jordanians haven't taken Palestinians since 1970. So, President Trump is the first president since, hush, Nixon, I guess.
Right.
He gets them to do this.
Right, and like President Trump said during that meeting, why wasn't the Biden administration doing this the whole time?
You know, the King of Jordan agreed to take 2036. Palestinian children.
Why wasn't Joe Biden making these type of deals?
Obviously, because they respect President Trump.
I think that was very obvious today.
And I was actually really pleasantly surprised to see that.
I feel like the king showed him a lot of respect and really wanted to make a deal.
He said he would get a lot of the Arab leaders together and try to come up with something that everybody could agree to for the fate of the Palestinian people, which I think is important to a lot of people.
So I think it went well, and I'm interested in seeing what happens.
I mean, three, four decades, the big problem has been, although it's always been put on Israel, Jordan, Egypt will take no Palestinians.
A Palestinian killed that king's grandson in 1915. His father was at war for a year with Arafat, in which a lot of people got killed.
So from then on, no more Palestinians in Jordan.
And Egypt...
The Palestinians want to overthrow Sisi.
They're part of the Muslim Brotherhood.
They don't want Palestinians.
No one's been able to capture them today.
So this is a much bigger day than people realize.
I think so, too.
And I think President Trump showed a lot of concern for the faith of the Palestinians, saying that a lot of them are being killed.
They're suffering.
There's no suffering anywhere in the world like there is in Palestine.
So, you know, he said all these things and he said he really wants to be able to find a place where they could go, where they could be safe, you know, where they're going to be out of harm's way.
And, you know, if there's a leader in the world that has a better idea what to do with this, you know, something that's been going on, obviously, for a very long time now than to come forward.
But it doesn't seem like anyone has a better solution.
So I think this is really opening doors, I think, to many more conversations.
And hopefully everybody can come together and finally come up with a solution.
We're watching somebody who wants to solve problems.
Right.
I don't know, sit there and enjoy having people wait on you, bow to you, make you feel important and cover up your crimes, which is with the last president.
You know, the question I would have liked to ask, but I don't think I'd have the courage to ask it, and that would have been of the King of Jordan.
He has never let any Palestinians in until now.
Do you know his wife, the King of Jordan's wife, is half Palestinian?
I didn't know that.
What did you do on holidays?
Your family can't come to Jordan.
Maybe this will break that down and maybe he'll be able to work something out with Cece.
And then you'd see the wisdom of one.
I mean, we have to say there's more.
So there's kind of a breakthrough.
In this case, there is this little hook in it that the next, the permanent U S attorney can reinstate it.
If he determines that it's a correct prosecution and not as the justice department has to determine a political prosecution, Look, I'm not going to second guess.
I'm not going to second guess the decision hasn't even been made yet.
Here's the interesting thing.
Mayor Adams is not meant to be unfair to you at all.
But we don't know, right?
It's kind of stupid, right?
Taking upgrades of tickets constitutes a bribe.
Which in return for that, which he might not even know what was going on, he called the buildings department and told them to expedite a building they should expedite anyway.
Now, let's assume for a moment that he did that.
Let's also further assume that Neville would have been prosecuted.
But for the fact that he spoke up against Biden.
Just assume both facts to be true.
He is guilty of the crime, however serious you want to.
Obviously, it isn't murder and obviously it isn't like straight out bribery that's going to be nice and clear like Biden, like the Bidens, which were thrown right in your face.
And they were ignoring and would have ignored forever.
Had he not spoken up against Biden?
So I'm going to ask you guys now, Steve and Ted, and you're not prosecutors, but still, it's a matter of fairness more than anything else.
Do you think a case like that should be brought?
The person is guilty of the crime, but the crime is brought...
To politically punish them when it would not have been brought, you know, had they played along.
Now, how certain are we that the crimes that we know about are the only crimes?
Well, let's assume that just for purposes of this, let's assume these are the only crimes.
That's a tough one because you do want to enforce the laws as they're written, and he shouldn't break the laws.
But it was purely a political decision to prosecute him.
I don't think there's a right answer to it.
Yeah.
See, you don't want to revolt.
It's just tough.
It's just tough.
So I'll tell you how I would have resolved that.
I'd have resolved that, that if you go after the king, you have to win, and it has to be something big.
You can't go after the king, the mayor, the governor, the president, with chicken shit.
Yes.
And this is...
Criminal, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, but chicken shit.
Now, here's what else he's theoretically being investigated for, and that would be in the contracts, the very, very luxury contracts for illegal aliens, which is ridiculous, right?
Enormously inflated contracts where a lot of his people are being investigated for, you know, Kickbacks, right?
One, did that happen?
And number two, did he know about it?
And number three, did he share in it?
So, and I assume if he knew about it, the circumstantial evidence then would almost demand that you're prosecuting him.
It would be hard to think that a mayor would know about it and not share in it because if he knew about it, You stop it, right?
Or you're sharing it.
Or you're sharing it.
I don't know.
I guess it is possible you know about it and you just say, I don't care.
I imagine that happens.
They know about it and they just say, I don't care.
But that would still constitute some kind of violation of the law.
Now, I don't know the status of those.
For example, one...
I mean, those cases don't pass the smell test.
They seem pretty bad.
On the other hand, if the Justice Department had that case, why did they bring it against them?
I mean, are they not getting cooperation?
I mean, they've got all the power in the world to get it.
If you don't have it by now, they may never get it.
I mean, there are some cases in which you think the person is guilty.
But you can't get the people to cooperate.
Then you just got to give up at some point.
Otherwise, you're going to spend all your time, you know, for 10 years on a case that can't go anywhere.
So this lawyer, who is a very, very good lawyer and knows the cases a bit, not a prosecutor, defense lawyer, so he knows them from gossip, says that he really doesn't think they have that case.
He doesn't think they have him in that case, even though there may be some people that did things wrong.
That's not unusual.
I mean, there isn't an administration in history.
It doesn't have some people that did things wrong.
I had people that did things wrong in my administration.
Of course, I prosecuted them.
But, I mean, I told you about the building contractors.
When I was a U.S. attorney, I prosecuted building contractors twice, whole groups of them.
I thought when I was mayor, they were so scared of me, they wouldn't do anything.
And then two years into it, I had to arrest 35 building contractors, taking bribes, with me as the mayor.
I think it matters, too, if he actually sought out the different treatments and things like that, and the trips to Turkey.
And this is all assuming that he didn't do any other weird business in Turkey.
But if he actually sought out these things and kind of was playing on the office a little bit...
Oh, and by the way, these happened when he was borough president, not when he was mayor.
This happened before he became mayor.
So what business would Turkey, I mean, besides the expediting of a building, why would Turkey want to kiss up to a borough president?
Because he was always seen as a guy that would go further.
He had been a state representative before.
And I would say, you want to make the case against him, you'd say, it's a little like the Chinese.
I mean, the Chinese invest.
I mean, why do they invest in Swalwell?
He was a little jackass.
In Walls.
Right?
Yeah.
And it turned out he is.
It's a long game.
And it turns out he never did go anywhere.
So that was a bad investment.
Yeah, and anyone in the influence business understands this.
Anyone in the influence business.
I mean, the Chinese do it much more than the Turks.
I mean, the Chinese will try to turn anybody.
I mean, they tried to turn my partner and I when we were in China with a beautiful girl and we threw her out.
Bummer.
You should have did the old double agent thing, Captain Girl, and said, now I'm using you for intel.
I don't even know if they were trying.
I think they were just trying to get a little information.
Look, they know my history.
My God, I've been involved in law enforcement forever, and they know I'm honest, unlike the Biden people who pretend that I'm not.
I don't think the Chinese would waste their money on me.
So you can smell it, though, when they're trying to do something.
God, yeah.
Every time we were there, hey, Chinese.
We would put little things in our luggage to see if you guys were going through, and you did every night.
Yep.
Yep.
John Uvain, you know, I get him on the show sometime.
He can tell you exactly how he did it.
Plus, we used burner phones.
I was just going to say, burner phones.
I never brought my...
I left this at home.
There is not a Faraday cage good enough to bring my cell phone to China.
Which is why the UK should not allow a backdoor.
These things should be...
Even more secure than they are.
And it's not just your privacy.
I mean, gosh, I don't even have any privacy anymore.
It's national secrets that are important.
And corporate secrets.
Even more.
I mean, China would be nowhere if they didn't steal from us.
They'd be nowhere on any of these things.
They'd be a second-rate bunch of lulus because they have no creativity.
And you're never going to have creativity in a dominated dictatorship like that.
People are not allowed to think for themselves.
Conformity is more prized.
Yeah.
Creativity.
Conformity makes you really good at imitating.
So, man, they can steal it from you and imitate beautifully.
But they're not going to take it much further.
They're not going to take it too much further.
There's a limit where they're going to take it.
Whereas, if we have to catch up on that, as long as we discipline ourselves, we can catch up real fast.
And that's why I think we, with the right discipline, which we have now, we win this race.
I don't think they do.
Plus, we have a lot more foreigners that are willing to cooperate with us than with them.
They've become well-known now as a semi-organized crime operation.
Way back in the first Trump administration, I had presidents from African countries and foreign ministers complaining to me that they made a mistake tying in with China.
Yeah, I think.
And they wanted to be extricated.
They said, we didn't realize, you know, and I used to tell them how the mafia did it.
And they tried just pretty much the same thing.
They come in, they help you, they give you a loan.
And then all of a sudden, they own you.
They walk in and say, gee, now you owe us more than you're worth.
And now we take the country or the business.
Or the bridge or the oil thing.
Or the Panama Canal.
Any of the investments.
Or the Panama Canal.
I thought the article yesterday by Mary Anastasia O'Grady in the Wall Street Journal, who is, I think, the best expert on South America we have.
I never will take that away from her.
I think she's got to learn what red China is all about.
She basically says that it's kind of benign China being there.
There's nothing benign about China.
When I say China, the CCP, they're China.
They run China.
They run every business in China.
Every business in China is under their thumb.
If it's a really official business like that, it really is under their thumb.
It may have been a Hong Kong business before.
It may or may not have been under their thumb when it was a Hong Kong business.
It still could have been.
But once they brought Hong Kong in and crushed it, they'd be even more certain that it's a CCP business.
And do you think they're going to let a Chinese business operate in the Panama Canal and not control it?
Come on, Mary.
What's your common sense?
Don't you know what communism is?
I mean, you do know it for the countries there.
It is not possible that that is being operated illegally.
It's also not possible they didn't bribe.
Don't tell me the Panama Canal organization is straight.
It's made up of a lot of Panamanians, and Panama is one of the crookedest countries in the world.
And you got, on the other side, the richest crookedest country.
Because we're not crooked like they are.
We're crooked internally.
We're just the Democrats.
But I mean, the reality is that that presence of the Chinese in the Panama Canal controlling the locks, or two main locks, It's extraordinarily dangerous and completely inconsistent with our national security.
That is one where if we have to use the military, what are we having for?
Not the kind of jerky stuff that Biden thought.
I mean, I don't know.
What would it take for us to clean that out?
Not as much as you'd probably think.
Yeah.
I don't think China wants to go to war over the Panama Canal.
The toughest opponent would actually be probably the heat and the mosquitoes.
Yeah.
Not any sort of military.
By the way, we also should kick them the hell out of Cuba.
Speaking of heat and mosquitoes, is that what?
No, we should kick them out of Cuba.
Yeah.
We should kick the Chinese out of Cuba like Kennedy did.
Kennedy wouldn't let them get in, but Biden let them get in.
Of course, they paid Biden a lot of money to get in.
So I want people to see that not every one of my old city is bad.
This is a statement from the woman who is in charge of New York City Sports and Recreation for Mayor Adams.
And I want you to read that.
To those asking about my position as director of NYC Sports and Recreation, I stand with the recent executive order, that would be of President Donald J. Trump, reinforcing the importance of fairness in women's sports.
That means keep men out of women's sports.
Keep men out of the ladies' room.
Hmm?
And this is...
That's a young lady, very nice young lady, who is in charge.
And I think that was an extremely helpful support for President Trump.
And it gives you an idea of the bipartisan nature of the support for keep men out of women's sports, Keep men out of women's rooms.
I think over 60% of Democrats support that.
But the very loud Democrats don't.
Yeah, and they also support closing the border.
I don't know about USAID, but once they get to see what USAID does, how could you support that?
I mean, they're taking money and giving it to Hamas?
They're giving money to Hezbollah?
Hamas.
I mean, the things they've given money to, it's impossible to support them.
So I don't know if we mentioned on this show, but it certainly is worth mentioning, that Mark Fogel, who was...
Arrested for what he said was medical marijuana, and the Russian said was criminal marijuana, I guess, that was found in his luggage.
He was arrested in August 2021. And he was a forgotten man.
Even other negotiations that Biden had.
With them, they just let this poor guy rot in jail.
President Trump, his mother, Malphine Fogel, 95 years old, who lives in Pennsylvania, kept raising this with President Trump.
I guess she thought it was useless to raise it with the demented one.
And Ann Fogel, who is the sister of Mark Fogel.
Said that her mother spoke to the president shortly before he was shot at Butler.
And the president told her then that he would get selected.
I'll get your brother out.
Or in his case, he said, you know, I'll get your son out.
But it's his sister telling it.
And the sister says, I give him great credit.
Well, of course they do.
and should.
I mean, that's family right there.
you Thank you.
I mean, that's when they were young, but you can see a happy family.
And I think right now, it's going to be a lot to get over for Mark, but a happy family again.
And all due to the fact that we have a president.
And I think President Trump gets great credit for this.
But again, you could say this is what a president is supposed to do.
Now, getting out hostages is hard.
And according to Steve Witkoff and the others in the administration, there was no quid pro quo involved in this.
Now, I would say, I mean, there are times when there are quid pro quos and they're just not mentioned because you don't want to be negotiating for hostages.
And you don't want to be seen to do it like Israel does.
And I think that's why they're afflicted by it so much.
And we're not as afflicted by it.
But I have a hunch about this.
And the hunch is because I know what a good negotiator Putin is.
If I were Putin, which I'm not, but I think I can think like him as a negotiator.
You've got to be able to think like criminals if you want to catch them.
You know that, right?
I would have done this, what we call, on the arm.
As a sign of good faith.
I'm going into negotiations where, although he doesn't want to say it, he's got to get out of this war.
The war is killing Russia.
It's killing economically.
It's killing it internationally.
Even China is beginning to back away from them because China's in a bad economic situation itself now.
So they don't want to get dragged down by Russia.
I think the only way in which this war has helped is it convinced China.
That taking Taiwan might not be the kind of easy situation they thought it would be.
But in any event, the continuation of this war is doing no good for Russia.
It's not doing any good for Ukraine either.
People are getting killed.
And there's no outcome.
There's no feasible outcome.
Because the only outcome that could happen is...
Russia could try to take the rest of Ukraine, or Ukraine would have to attack Russia to try to convince Russia to get out.
And I think that the Western world, much more than the United States, isn't ready for that.
They're not ready to take the risk of nuclear war.
That's probably right.
If you were going to prevent this, it had to be done at the very beginning.
You had to prevent Putin from coming in.
And if you wanted to put boots on the ground, that's when it would have to have been done, or not at all.
What Biden did was he invited Putin to come in by not creating the risk that maybe there would be boots on the ground.
I think Putin might have been dissuaded if there was a reasonable possibility that he'd be met by boots on the ground.
Think of how difficult it was for him anyway with a fairly, you know, ragtag Ukrainian army.
And as we look back in retrospect now, not that well armed by us.
We held back.
We're still, right to the end, Biden was holding back arms.
So Ukraine did quite a job in keeping them from taking all Ukraine.
They took about 20%.
And they've been stalemated at that.
And they took big losses.
Much more than they're going to admit.
It may not be a million, like Ukraine says.
It may be about 700,000.
But that's a big number.
And they exposed themselves.
This wasn't a blitzkrieg.
It's not like the Nazi army just marched in and took over.
This looks like, this Russia looks like, looks like, and you never want to, you know, you never want to be too confident, but it looks like it has a, not a particularly fearsome army.
And if anything, beaten down since this.
So you go into it with a sign of good faith with Trump, hoping you get, I mean, I think.
Putin knows he's going to have to give something up.
Zelensky knows he's got to give something up.
It's a question of who has to give up more or who gets pushed harder.
And this is one way to get a little favorite with Trump to show you're not the monster that they say you are.
Except Ukraine released today some pretty strong evidence that their people were being tortured in the Russian prisons.
It doesn't look to me like propaganda.
It looks to me like real, real stuff.
Similar to the pictures we showed you earlier of the people held in the Hamas concentration camps that came out looking like Holocaust survivors.
And also the absolute utter animalistic cruelty of not letting these people know until they were released that their families are dead, killed by them.
And not even telling us who's alive and dead.
I mean, what are there, 70 people?
30 are dead?
You don't know?
I mean, you know some, but you don't.
There's no assurance.
They haven't really identified all of the dead.
So there are 70 people.
I don't know, maybe 8 or 10 of the dead are known.
So for everyone there, unless you heard from them recently, Your person could be alive or dead.
I don't know.
It's a torture anyway, but I do not understand even the confusion and the propaganda and the brainwashing that leads to support for Hamas and Hezbollah and Iran and the Islamic maniacs.
I mean, look.
Obama gave him money.
So all the best to Mark and his family.
And God, I hope you have a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful life.
And thank you, President Trump.
And Steve and all the people who accomplished that.
And I do think there was no quid pro quo.
And if there was, it's between you and God.
And that's a lot better because it doesn't necessarily create a precedent.
I know you find that a little complicated, but I was in the intelligence business for a long time.
So I know when they do and when they don't.
And this is one where I don't think they did.
I also want to congratulate Elon Musk.
He's doing a job nobody has done.
In uncovering what we've known for years, waste, fraud, and abuse.
It's not a slogan.
It's for real.
Just add corruption to it, and you get the picture.
But I think before, when I went over the Treasury Department problems, where the payments aren't categorized with a code, the payments don't have an explanation attached.
And nobody checks the do not pay list.
I think you get the picture.
And as the person who wrote the report said, at the level at which it takes place, which we don't know yet, it's almost consistent with its being the product of corruption and not mismanagement.
The mismanagement would have to be colossal.
And the motive of corruption is so strong and so obvious in a lot of these agencies.
So tomorrow, maybe we find out.
Maybe we find out if...
Well, tomorrow's Wednesday.
I think Thursday is RFK Jr. Tulsi got through the Senate.
They basically have gotten over the last hurdle with a positive vote for her.
I think a three, four vote margin so that it'll be voted on on the floor.
So the next vote on Tulsi is the actual vote.
I don't know if Kennedy has gotten past that.
They've all gotten through the—well, no, I'm sorry.
Cash hasn't been through the committee yet.
But Tulsi and Kennedy, by a one-vote margin, have both gone through the committee.
Tulsi has gone through the four, and on the four, they've basically ended debate by a three-vote margin.
Fed him in not voting, which is like a vote, right?
Half a vote.
And maybe he'll vote for her.
Maybe he'll vote for her.
This was a procedural vote, but more likely than not, your procedural vote is going to follow your vote.
So I don't know when Tulsi will be voted on.
I assume real quick.
And I think Kennedy comes to the floor on Thursday.
And we're going to take a look overnight and find out what's going on with our favorite, Cash.
Now, he's our favorite because I think it's the single most important appointment that Donald Trump is going to make, including Attorney General, because Attorney General doesn't have the hands right on the FBI. Now, Attorney General's important because the Attorney General can support or interfere with.
And there's no question Pam will not only support it, she'll be...
I'm enthusiastic about it.
But the guy on the scene, running the FBI, really means, do we end up within a very short period of time going back to the kind of country we've always been, with a law enforcement system and a justice system that's the glory of the world?
Or do we remain a banana republic, which is what we were under Biden?
A lot of people have to contribute to it, and it's probably unfair to say that one is more important than the other.
Because if the others fail, well...
But this is the critical one.
And it's the one that I think will set the tone.
And he is absolutely the right guy.
You couldn't do better.
And I have no idea why they're holding it up and why our majority doesn't push harder.
But I'm not a senator, and maybe that's why I'm not a senator.
Well, let's pray for the people of Israel, and we'll pray for the people of Ukraine, as we've talked about.
We always pray for the people of Iran because I think they're on the verge of something wonderful happening.
I really do.
God, please make that happen.
Pray for the hostages, huh?
Those pictures were awful.
Pray for the health of our president and all of the people that are doing this great work for him, including Elon Musk and whoever it is that becomes their target of the week.
And of course, we just pray thanksgiving for our country that you delivered us, God.
You delivered us.
Well, we cooperate with you.
And we did.
And enough of us did so that we're going to make this place greater than it ever was before.
God bless America.
We'll see you tomorrow night at 7. It's our purpose to bring to bear the principle of common sense and rational discussion to the issues of our day.
America was created at a time of great turmoil, tremendous disagreements, anger, hatred.
It was a book written in 1776 that guided much of the discipline of thinking that brought to us the discovery of our freedoms.
of our God-given freedoms.
It was Thomas Paine's Common Sense, written in 1776, one of the first American bestsellers in which Thomas Paine explained by rational principles the reason why these small colonies felt the necessity to separate from the Kingdom of Great Britain and the King of England.
He explained their inherent desire for liberty, for freedom, freedom of religion.
Freedom of speech.
The ability to select the people who govern them.
And he explained it in ways that were understandable to all the people, not just the elite.
Because the desire for freedom is universal.
The desire for freedom adheres in the human mind and it is part of the human soul.
This is exactly the time we should consult our history.
Look at what we've done in the past.
And see if we can't use it to help us now.
We understand that our founders created the greatest country in the history of the world.
The greatest democracy, the freest country.
A country that has taken more people out of poverty than any country ever.
