All right.
Thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
Write down our toll-free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program.
It's 800-941 Sean, if you want to join us.
I'm I know based on reaction and people I talk to that there is trepidation, there is concern, there is worry, there is fear, there's the atmosphere of what's going to happen in the Senate, what's going to happen in the House.
Um, I've been down this road many, many times.
This is not our first rodeo.
And, and with Donald Trump, there's a certain extra layer of confidence that I have.
That in spite all of the posturing and all of the complaining and all of the imperfections, the one big beautiful bill, I don't know, somewhere tonight, I expect, maybe during my show, I'm not sure, uh, is likely going to pass.
I do support the passage of it for a lot well for a lot of reasons.
Let's start with the most fundamental, and that is the largest tax cut in American history versus what the Democrats will be fighting for, which is the largest tax increase in American history.
And it's not a it's no small deal if you work in the service industry, that you will not be paying taxes on tips.
And if you're a worker and you work some overtime, you're going to get some tax relief as it relates to taxing overtime work, uh, which is a big deal for people, lowering taxes for seniors and social security recipients.
You know, there's been a lot of uh demagoguery and just outright flat out lying, which is why we've had Dr. Oz on about this.
We knew this would be the area they demagogue the most.
And it's the same as what we hear every two years and four years, Republicans are racist and sexist and homophobic and xenophobic and Islamophobic, and they want dirty air and dirty water, and they want grandma and grandpa to eat dog food and cat food until some you know Trump lookalike throws him in a wheelchair and drops them off a cliff.
You know, they're cutting social security men.
No, they're not.
Now they're all headed forward towards insolvency and you know, improvements and reforms, and we shouldn't pay one you know, a dollar amount for one medical service versus one m if you're a Medicaid versus Medicare, and if you're able-bodied, uh, you shouldn't be getting recipients.
You you should be, you should be able, if able-bodied people ought to participate, do something.
And there's going to be some work mandate requirement, even volunteer work for people if they want to get any of this.
And anyway, extending the current policy baseline to keep taxes low and extending this tax relief.
If you look at the majority of tax cuts, they are for working men and women, women in this country.
Every time we cut taxes, every single time, it results in more revenue to the federal government, not less revenue to the federal government.
Um they did keep in the salt deduction.
If I and this is where I might have disagreements on the bill.
I mean, the salt deduction is gonna go from ten thousand dollars to forty thousand dollars that you know, state and local tax uh reductions and relief.
Uh to me, that only rewards blue states and blue cities and and around the country that continue to elect these high tax and spend uh liberal, you know, Democrats.
Why do they get to deduct high taxes in their state?
That's not a benefit that is afforded to responsible states that elect low tax and and low regulation, you know, Republicans.
Um, but it's neither here nor there.
That's why it's I I've said from the beginning when I went to do a town hall with senators and went to do a town hall with House members, uh, we had this discussion, and I said to all of them, you know, none of you are gonna get everything you want, but this is this is what the president's agenda is, and it takes away a big part of the president's agenda.
The most important part, important aspect of this is the president's tax cuts and relief for working men and women.
That is the most important.
The sex m second most important thing is going to be the president will have the monies necessary to not only build out the rest of the border wall to protect our country from open borders of Biden Harris Mayorcus, and that will then also provide money so that they can deport these criminal illegals that are in our country, known terrorists and murderers and rapists and other violent criminals and cartel members and gang members and drug dealers.
That's a big part of it.
Big part of the economic part of it is also the issue of opening up energy exploration and energy the policies of energy dominance, which is going to number one keep the keep what is the engine of our economy, and that is the engine of every economy,
and that is energy, and then we're going to now drill and get gas and frack and go mining for coal like never before, and then we will be a net energy exporter, and we'll be able to, you know, that's going to bring in a lot of revenue, especially over the long term for this country.
That's a big part of the president's economic agenda.
It also is going to help with national defense.
And we got to build out the next generation of weaponry for our military.
Has to happen.
You know, we got to get to energy dominance.
By the way, it's 1.6 trillion in savings, 4.1 trillion in economic growth from tax permanence, and their estimates have it at lowering the deficit not by enough.
And this is where I think Lindsey Graham has the right strategy.
This is about the biggest bill you could ever bite off this ambitious an agenda and actually get it through.
So after talking, and by the way, undoing Biden's wasteful student loan debt scheme.
I mean, why should hard working men and women, you know, that go to community colleges or trade school, why should they be paying off the debt of these, you know, spoiled brats that are going to these Ivy League institutions to be indoctrinated into hating Israel and having to listen to pro Hamas chants.
It's insane.
So it is um, and it's getting rid of Biden era climate regulations.
I want to I want Republicans to be the party of freedom and the party of choice and the party of hardworking men and women.
And um I think this bill will do it.
So here's the bottom line after being on the phone pretty much all day.
I got to tell you something.
It is it is clear to me that this one big beautiful bill is going to pass.
That is my prediction.
Anything can happen.
I can't say with a hundred percent certainty.
And I think that overall it is one of the most conservative bills ever.
You know, I'll give you it's it included this salt deduction, which I don't support, but it is including you know, no tax on tip relief.
It is including no tax on overtime relief.
It is making the tax cuts permanent.
Child tax uh credit increases $2,500 in the in the House version, 2200 in the Senate version, so it'll probably be about 2200, 1,200 in new income tax cuts for uh for American households, um 500 to a 1,500 for the middle class for the congressional budget office.
That's that's real money in people's pockets.
The amount of border wall that we need to secure our country is 46 billion, 45 billion or 100,000 illegal immigrant detention facility beds.
Have you seen this alligator alley?
Some people are protesting it down here in Florida.
It's interesting to watch.
Uh 10,000 new ICE agents, $25 billion for the Golden Dome.
That may end up being, you know, everyone laughed at Ronald Reagan when he talked about strategic defense, and the media mocked it and called it Star Wars.
Well, if you look at the initial reporting of SDI back in the day, it looked an awful like a lot like the skies over Israel when Iran and Hamas and Hezbollah and the UT rebels have been firing missiles into densely Populated areas in Israel, and then whoops, take it right out of the sky.
It worked.
May end up one day when we're long dead and gone being Donald Trump's greatest legacy.
Anyway, the new work requirements are for adults on Medicaid and food stamps and tax credits for electric vehicles and green upgrades to each home.
It ends or restricts tax credits for companies making a green energy tech.
I I've not had time to read the Senate version.
I know it's been it's been read.
Um just giving you the summaries of it.
Um, but my understanding is there's a hundred percent depreciation if you build out manufacturing centers in year one.
That that is going to incentivize companies to invest that money, the 10 trillion that Donald Trump has in committed money's gonna cause them to do it really, really quickly.
You know, president pointed out that this is one point six trillion dollars in government spending over a decade that's going to be slashed.
But again, that's only a first step.
It doesn't get us to a balanced budget yet.
But as people like Lindsey Graham have said, yeah, we can come back for a second reconciliation bill, if not a third reconciliation bill.
Um and John Thune also backing to secure more cuts within the president sweeping tax and immigration legislation.
Uh anyway, uh that deficit reducing measure sponsored by Republican Senator Rick Scott.
And we we've got to get to all of this.
And that was kind of like the last minute negotiation that was going on last night with Senator Rick Scott and Mike Lee and Ron Johnson, Loomis and a couple of others, uh, which finally got their support.
And Trump notably thanked Senator Scott and Ron John and and Mike Lee and others for supporting the opening of debate on the bill.
The president said he would work with the group to reduce wasteful spending, ensure our Medicaid system helps those who are truly in need.
And that's why we've had, you know, we've had on this program so often explaining this because we knew this would be demagogue, you know, Dr. Oz.
Uh very strange.
I really can't put my finger on why, you know, Senator Tillis of North Carolina, you know, just I he seemed to kind of lose it, you know, and started this fight with the president over the weekend, saying he's not going to support the bill rather than working with his fellow senators to do to make it better.
And anyway, he voted even against advancing the bill, where you you then you know have you know an opportunity to make final changes to the bill and move it towards final passage.
And anyway, then the president went after him on, and then he finally just I can't handle, I'm resigning.
Uh very bizarre to me, but it's it gives an opportunity for maybe a more Trump supporting MAGA conservative to be elected in North Carolina.
In my view, it's an opportunity.
Well, this might put the Senate in play.
It's not going to put the Senate in play.
There are too many good people that are available to run in North Carolina.
By the way, top of the list in terms of names mentioned is Laura Trump.
That'll be interesting, but I can name two people in particular that I think would be good candidates.
I'm going to hold fire on that for now.
Um, but the president's doctrine is now firing on all cylinders.
You know, American doctrine means peace through strength, no forever wars.
The president completely consistent with what he said on the campaign trail and his first term.
And that is, he took out the ISIS caliphate, Baghdadian associates.
He took out Salomani.
I mean, the he used the mother of all bombs on Afghanistan, and he never got us into a forever war.
You know, Trump is actually, there was a Fox News.com piece how he's doing the UN's job on the world stage and leading on the issue of peace while the Secretary General is, you know, notoriously they've been anti-American and anti-Semitic in that body.
Frankly, I I would like to save the billions of dollars we send every year on any globalist organization, especially the U.N. The president was right to pull out of the WHO, the WEF.
He was right to pull out of the Paris Climate Accords.
He was right to pull out of that stupid Iranian deal with Obama, you know, flying in cargo planes of cash and other currency and appeasing the Iranians.
I mean that's probably why they they couldn't believe when Trump took out the nuclear sites because they were so used to weak, feckless leadership in America.
Joe Biden helped them get rich to foment terror and advance their nuclear program by not enforcing the sanctions that Donald Trump put on them in his first term.
Linda, which nickname do you like?
Do you like Marxist mom dummy, or do you like Marxist Mondummy?
What do you prefer?
How about Mummy Dummy?
I like Mummy Dummy.
You like mummy dummy?
I like Marxist Mum Dummy.
It doesn't really flow though.
Yeah, Marx's mom don't need does to me.
Hmm.
Hmm.
I mean, no.
All right.
So this lunatic, and we're going to go over all this crazy pick and why is this important if you're not living in New York City?
It's important because as goes New York and California, pay attention.
This is the modern Democratic Party.
He's given three chances this weekend to condemn the calls for globalizing the anti-fada, and he wouldn't do it.
And you all these Democrats are supporting him.
He vows to fight back against ICE agents if he's elected.
He said, I don't think we should have billionaires.
He doubles down on a plan to tax richer and whiter Americans more.
What?
I mean, stuff you couldn't even imagine.
We're going to tax, he defends taxing whiter neighborhoods at higher rates.
Really?
We'll go through all of it when we come back.
news you'll never get from the media mob.
And I got to give a lot of credit and a shout out to the president for going there this weekend to defend Prime Minister Netanyahu.
This is the dumbest case ever.
A prime minister has to go on trial.
What for?
For gifts of like cigars and a doll and whatever dumb thing.
And Trump actually went so in deep.
We we just saved Israel from Iran, and BB was with us the entire way, and there's never been a greater military success.
And now you're going to do a witch hunt trial against your prime minister, a sitting prime minister, a wartime prime minister.
And then he said, fine, if Israel wants to do that and be stupid, then he will withhold billions of dollars in aid to Israel.
Let the Israeli people prioritize what matters here.
I mean, cigars and dolls and nonsense.
Uh promising to continue to rich enrich uranium, and you had Iranian ambassador to the UN making that call.
Top Iranian cleric has now issued a call to assassinate President Trump.
Not the first time.
And, you know, how much longer are we supposed to look the other way?
Never-ending threats, you know, over a thousand Americans over the last number of decades.
Top clerics chanting death to Israel, death to America during public prayers every Friday, dispatching multiple Iranian assassination teams that got inside our country thanks to Joe and Kamala and Mayorcis and company.
You know, they have a tough clerical leader put out a call now from Muslims around the world to help carry out the assassination.
The cleric issued a religious decree against Donald Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu.
It's called a fatwa.
I know because I have had one issued against me in my life, a real one.
Um, you know, that I I don't know if I've ever told the whole story on the air.
It was the it was the Mossad.
Israeli intelligence group.
They got wind of a genuine, real fatwa that was put out on me.
My kids were young at the time.
I told you the story.
At the time you knew the story.
I did, but fair's repeating.
And anyway, so they put a fat one, you know, I had to have private security 24-7.
And um I can't tell everyone how the story ended, but it's a great ending.
It's ironic and funny in some ways, but it's it's not a comfortable feeling.
Um, but these fatwas are real.
Massad contacted Fox Security and New NYPD and said, uh, this is real.
You might want to take this seriously, which I always appreciated.
And that was very nice that they didn't have to do it.
It was real intelligence, actionable intelligence.
And I'll never forget, I shouldn't really tell this.
My poor son.
My little my daughter who's very young at the time goes, Daddy, why aren't you talking to all your friends that are just they're just sitting there?
And an older brother by three years goes, are you are you really serious?
You don't know who they are.
You don't know why they're here.
They all have guns.
They're trying to kill dad.
They're here to protect dad.
I'm like, did you really have to go there?
Remember I told you that story?
I mean, the funny part is is that I think people don't realize that you have a family.
You know, like you you had little ones, and you know, here they are trying to kill you, and you have to create this sort of this, you know, environment of, oh, these are daddy's friends.
Meanwhile, it's like, oh, yeah, well, they're trying to kill the whole family.
So my son was younger you know, he he was not trying to be, he just was three years older and just had a little more understanding of what was going on.
Of course, but it's just scary that he even had to have that.
Do you know what I mean?
Like now we all sit around and joke about it, and you know, we can all as a family laugh about it.
You know, there's a reason it's natural for hosts to talk a lot about their families.
There's a reason I don't.
And this is part of it.
And uh, you know, and I know people would would want me to talk more about I just I want to leave that they're they choose to be private citizens, and trust me, that nobody's happier about that part than me.
Because it's you definitely there's a there's a I I there's so much up more.
This is my chosen profession.
They have they have their chosen, you know, they're adults now and they're doing great.
I'm very proud of them, but that they're you know, they don't have to get dragged into my stuff.
And that part always bothered me when innocent people get dragged into my stuff.
Left wing Democrats claiming Israel's committing genocide, they ignored the Islamic slaughter Christians in Nigeria.
You notice this on Friday, June 13th, over 500 Christians murdered by Islamic terrorists in Nigeria.
By the way, new satellite imagery showing, yeah, that these nuclear sites were just absolutely obliterated, but nobody seems to want to say anything about it.
Israeli Prime Minister praising President Trump for backing him against this political witch hunt aimed at weakening Israel's leadership.
I mean, and then you have John Cusak, the actor, Iran will rush to get a nuclear weapon and they should get one.
And everyone wonders why no one it's like that idiot George Clooney and his wife.
I mean, the stupidity of of both of them is beyond words, you know, supporting the IEC.
What part of I have a question for Clooney?
Come on my program.
George, you're so tough.
You like to write op-eds, you want to get political, come on this show.
Come on my TV show.
And maybe you can explain why Israel doesn't have a right to defend itself after the equivalent based on their population size of 40,000 Americans being slaughtered in a day.
What part of that murder and that rape?
We have it on video, George.
You want to watch it?
Greta Thunberg decided not to watch it.
Would you watch it, George?
Would you get your wife to watch it?
You know, and watch the murder, rape, torture, kidnapping, and beheadings.
George Clooney, you can watch it.
I'll get I'll make sure I'll I'll set up a private viewing for you.
And maybe you can educate yourself before you open your big fat liberal mouth.
And I educate yourself.
By the way, fresh evidence showing Iran's nuclear program just devastated, according to John Ratcliffe, our CIA director, the Masada said the same thing.
Israel has said the same thing.
Um, but there's just a lot going on in the world.
Now let me get to this Marxist Mandami.
Mandami's this is getting very, very interesting over the weekend in particular.
You know, first he said that white neighborhoods should be paying higher property taxes.
Linda, let me ask you a question.
If a Republican ever isolated a race or gender or any, you know, the ethnicity for higher taxes, what would we call that?
Racist.
It's not a tough, it's not a tough question question.
We're going to shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer, whiter neighborhoods.
Let's go after the white people.
Okay.
We're going to treat people differently.
I thought we were supposed to, we're all God's children, treat everybody equally.
Funny, uh, New York Post uh headline today, Boca Raton, which is in South Florida, north of Miami, on the east coast of Florida.
The mayor down there is luring businesses to escape, but they're already escaping.
We'll get into this later with Mark Simone.
Escape to Florida, New York.
They're going to get out in the biggest way.
They already are half out the door because of the madness.
It is, you know, and you know, if you look at I went over all his older positions.
He was given three chances this weekend.
Three.
And I'll play it later in the program to condemn the calls to globalize the antifada.
He refused to do it every time.
And Democratic leaders, they are they are scared to death to take him on.
Hakim Jefferson, I don't really know him that well, but he needs he needs more clarification on that one issue.
Clarification.
He clarified it this weekend.
He didn't condemn it.
And guess what?
That answers your question.
Marxist Mondami vowing to fight against ICE agents if elected, fight back.
Well, that would be against the law.
And I'm pretty confident that Pam Bondi would enforce the law because there is something called the Constitution and the Supremacy Clause, and that's not his decision.
Then he actually went on to say the dumbest thing I've ever heard is I don't think we should have billionaires.
What do you think all these rich people in New York, millionaires and billionaires are going to do when he says he's going to soak the rich, tax the rich, and that some of them shouldn't even exist, and he wants to confiscate things.
What is it when you call, you know, to each New Yorker according to their need and from each according to their ability, and we shouldn't have billionaires.
By the way, he comes from a wealthy family, and they shouldn't exist.
Oh, he's going to empower the government to take over, take people's money so that he can build out a base and buy his votes for future races.
That's Marxism.
To each call it whatever you want.
Marxism, socialism, communism, statism.
It's all of it.
Not even socialism.
This is Marxism.
This is to each according to his need, from each according to his ability, and we'll take well if if you have too much that we deem you up too much, we're going to take it.
And by the way, if you're in the whiter neighborhoods, you're going to pay a higher tax rate than other people of other races.
He did this rap once.
This was in the New York Post 2017 rap video.
And he praised five men known as the Holy Land Five from the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development, convicted in 2008 of donating more than 12 million dollars to Hamas.
My love to the Holy Land Five.
You better look them up, Mom Donnie sang in a song called Salam.
I assume it's Asalamalaikum.
I don't know.
Another post out there.
The end goal of seizing the means of production.
Well, that would be the absolute purest definition.
And I don't know what's going to happen.
Cuomo stayed in the race.
He needed to get his name off by the end of last week.
He didn't do it, so he's still on the ballot.
Got another leftist on the ballot.
Got current mayor Eric Adams on the ballot.
You got my friend Curtis Leewa, who I'd love to see win on the ballot.
I mean, this guy, this guy is everything you'd expect in a left-wing lunatic.
Rent freezes, seizing buildings from landlords, you know, raising property taxes, taxing the rich, taxing corporations.
He wants to replace police with social workers.
you know, people will be threatening to murder innocent people on a subway or in the streets of New York.
You send a social worker unarmed, uh, persons whacked out of their mind, mentally deranged on, you know, shooting up heroin, fentanyl, coke, or maybe all three.
Um, sir, can you would you like to talk about your childhood?
What caused you to get to this moment in your life?
How's that gonna work?
Government operated grocery stores, free buses, free childcare.
That's what I want.
Indoctrination from the moment that kids are born.
Free gifts for every new parent, New York, diapers, essential goods, baby wipes.
Why don't parents raise their own children?
Here's the thought.
Um, he's gonna green the kids can't read, write, do math, they don't know science, they don't know computers, and he's gonna have a degree new deal for 500 public schools and replace five hundred asphalt schoolyards with vibrant green spaces.
I mean, how about you teach him how to read first and do basic math and learn computers first?
He's promoting the trans agenda, sixty-five million dollars is he's gonna spend on that.
I mean, i i uh it is going to be the end of New York.
Now, if my prediction is right that so goes New York, so goes the rest of the country.
If the radical left, because the they're no longer the party of that they used to be, but if the radical left takes over, this is this is what their future is.
This is what they believe.
They've been a little more coy and subtle, but deep down, this is it.
This is where the radicals have taken over.
AOC, the squad, this is you know, Grandpa Bernie, Pocahontas, Jasmine Crockett, all of them.
Now Mom Donnie.
This is where they would take the country.
And now you can't have a clearer choice.
This is where the Republican Party is now the party of the biggest tax cuts in American history, cutting taxes on tips and overtime for working men and women that deserve it.
Biggest chunk of tax cuts go to working men and women, middle class Americans, low-income Americans, preserving social security, Medicare, Medicaid.
That's a and they're the party of coastal woke elites and want to champion the the rights of men to play women's sports and put the rights of the illegals, including criminal illegals, over the safety of of American citizens.
I don't know.
Can't be more of a distinction in my view.
