Learn English with Donald Trump. President Donald Trump is sworn in as the 45th President of the United States. In his inaugural address, Trump outlines his vision for the future of the nation's foreign policy and speaks about his plans for his administration.
00:03:32.000World War III has never been closer than it is right now.
00:03:55.200We need to clean house of all of the warmongers and America's last globalists in the deep state, the Pentagon, the State Department, and the national security industrial complex.
00:04:07.520One of the reasons I was the only president in generations who didn't start a war is that I was the only president who rejected the catastrophic advice of many of Washington's generals, bureaucrats, and the so-called diplomats who only know how to get us into conflict, but they don't know how to get us out.
00:04:27.620For decades, we've had the very same people, such as Victoria Nuland and many others just like are obsessed with pushing Ukraine toward NATO, not to mention the State Department support for uprisings in Ukraine.
00:04:43.840These people have been seeking confrontation for a long time, much like the case in Iraq and other parts of the world.
00:04:51.620And now we're teetering on the brink of World War III, and a lot of people don't see it, but I see it, and I've been right about a lot of things.
00:05:00.360They all say Trump's been right about everything.
00:05:03.440None of this excuses in any way the outrageous and horrible invasion of Ukraine one year ago, which would have never happened if I was your president, not even a little chance.
00:05:15.660But it does mean that here in America, we need to get rid of the corrupt globalist establishment that has botched every major foreign policy decision for decades, and that includes President Biden, whose own people said he's never made a good decision when it comes to looking at other countries and looking at wars.
00:05:38.460We have to replace them with people who support American interests over our four years in the White House.
00:05:45.580We made incredible progress in putting the America last contingent aside and bringing the world to peace.
00:05:53.880And now we're going to complete the mission.
00:05:57.100The State Department, Pentagon and National Security Establishment will be a very different place by the end of my administration.
00:06:04.480In fact, just into my administration, it'll be a very different place, and it'll get things done, just like I did four years ago.
00:06:15.780We'll also stop the lobbyists and the big defense contractors from going in and pushing our senior military and national security officials toward conflict,
00:06:25.860only to reward them when they retire with lucrative jobs, getting paid millions and millions of dollars.
00:06:34.400Take a look at the globalist, warmonger donors backing our opponents.
00:06:39.780That's because they're candidates of war.
00:06:42.800I am the president who delivers peace, and it's peace through strength.
00:06:47.640There was a reason we had no conflict.
00:06:50.200There was a reason we didn't get into wars, because other countries respected us.
00:06:54.580I entirely built all right from the beginning, rebuilt our military.
00:09:48.600Warsaw, and he's tripling down on Kamala Harris.
00:09:51.580He called Putin and these guys war criminals and crimes against humanity.
00:09:56.140Note to self, even if you believe that, okay, if you believe that, the way things roll, right, the way things roll, the way that Abraham Lincoln ran it and the way that FDR ran it, is let's win first.
00:10:59.620Steve, honored to be with you, honored to be with the posse today.
00:11:03.240There's never been a starker contrast between President Trump standing up for America, standing up for America, fighting for every American as he goes to visit East Palestine tomorrow, and Joe Biden, who's taking 20-hour train rides to Kiev to participate more in the war porn that's been being pushed on the American people.
00:11:27.000This is absolutely disgusting, what is happening.
00:11:32.340We're in the one-year anniversary, right about the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine by Vladimir Putin.
00:11:38.780I said it was a mistake by Putin then, and I will say it again now.
00:11:41.800It was and continues to be a major mistake by Putin to take that action and invade Ukraine, full stop.
00:11:49.260It is also a catastrophic mistake by the American, quote-unquote, leaders who are illegitimate, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, to be sending billions and billions and billions and billions of American dollars, American weaponry, and let's be honest, those American, quote-unquote, instructors.
00:12:05.440We have boots on the ground in the Ukraine right now, and Joe Biden on President's Day, instead of supporting America, instead of going to East Palestine, instead of supporting Americans, where is he?
00:12:19.000I'm not going to say that Zelensky's got something on Biden, but it's pretty interesting.
00:12:23.080With all that Burisma information, with a Hunter Biden laughed out from hell, why is Joe Biden just so dead set on being buddy-buddy with Zelensky?
00:12:39.020Our, and America is doing right now, under failed leadership of hopeless, pathetic Joe Biden, America is doing nothing but making it worse by feeding into the conflict, by funding the conflict.
00:12:51.960What needs to happen is a solution has got to be figured out, and we have to stop this fire that's festering around a cluster of nuclear reactors in Eastern Europe.
00:13:03.380And again, to anybody who needs to figure out why this has to end, all I want to do is point you to 1913 in Eastern Europe, the beginning of World War I, then point you to the 1930s and 40s in Eastern Europe, World War II.
00:13:18.500And the fact that the bloodiest, most destructive wars in world history have been fought on the very soil that this issue, this war is happening in right now, and it's got to be put to an end.
00:13:30.580Otherwise, as President Trump said, we're at the precipice of World War III.
00:13:34.420Biden was there a day in Warsaw, Sarajevo and Warsaw, the two big conflicts of the 20th century that kind of all merged into one, of which the United States bailed everybody out.
00:13:46.100Hadn't been for our troops in 1918, nobody, in 17 and 18, no end of war.
00:13:53.820Boris, I've got to ask you to hang up a second, because you bring up something very important, and I can't figure it out.
00:13:59.100You know, Biden, they're talking about when Biden, you know, with the classified documents, one of the things his office was running around, and he took a trip to Ukraine.
00:14:06.440He went to Ukraine on like the 16th of January of 2021.
00:14:09.660What guy has got the last couple of days in the White House, what are you going to Ukraine for?
00:14:13.780This whole Ukraine thing has just never made sense to me.
00:14:16.760I don't, there's something that, and you don't want to get into conspiracy theory, but there's something just not right.
00:14:23.000It doesn't make any sense, this obsession, this maniacal obsession by our political elites that Trump called out, and he called him out by name, Victoria Nuland in this crowd.
00:15:17.400To dig our country out of this mountain of debt, every single taxpayer in America would have to write a check for $247,000, and it's only going to get worse.
00:15:29.360Now would be a great time to diversify into gold with birch gold.

00:26:19.760The governor of neighboring Pennsylvania announced his state made a criminal referral to investigate
00:26:25.100Norfolk Southern's handling of the derailment.
00:26:27.620This, as the EPA announced it is ordering Norfolk Southern to complete all of the cleanup, or the
00:26:33.920agency will immediately take over and seek to compel the company to pay triple the cost.
00:26:39.640I expect within the next 48 hours, Norfolk Southern will begin working with the agency on the contents of the work plan.
00:26:48.580They have to put together a work plan that's going to be very prescriptive.
00:26:52.300We're going to be here tomorrow, we're going to be here a year from now, and we're going to be here five years from now.
00:26:57.800And the CEO of the railroad says he is already committed to doing what's right.
00:27:02.600We're going to invest in this community, and we're going to do it in the right way, and we're going to do it at the right time.
00:27:08.600Presidents be pointed in this direction.
00:27:11.420At a church across town, a new medical clinic opening up today to help people concerned about getting sick from the chemicals spilled in the derailment and controlled burn.
00:27:20.100We want to help get people on the right track and navigate them through this health care system.
00:30:08.520Leahy, is it not their fault that we're here today, and now they're trying to throw the fire chief for the town under the bus?
00:30:16.680Steve, when Donald Trump announced on Friday, when it was announced on Friday that Donald Trump was visiting East Palestine tomorrow, Wednesday,
00:30:28.520the EPA administrator, Michael Regan, was planning to go to Africa.
00:30:33.520And as you pointed out, Governor Michael DeWine had only been there for like a 45-minute visit and then helicoptered out of it.
00:30:41.520So subsequently, they show up today in East Palestine, Ohio, for a press event.
00:30:48.860And if you listen to that event at the very beginning, all DeWine and Regan said was how wonderful the cooperation with everyone had been.
00:30:57.080The only one with real serious political chops in this was Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania,
00:31:04.380who threw a roundhouse at Norfolk Southern and said that he'd made a criminal referral.
00:31:11.520Now, that's a punch that perhaps Norfolk Southern deserves, but I don't think they're the only ones who deserve to get smacked around here, as you point out.
00:32:11.820And look, you referred to President Trump as the action-forcing president.
00:32:16.160Well, your show is an action-forcing show.
00:32:18.920As you know, your motto of action, action, action.
00:32:22.560And I think that this announcement by Shapiro is a direct outcome of you hammering this and then you having Mr. Leahy and myself on repeatedly about this.
00:32:36.860This is an earth-shattering thing, actually, for a criminal investigation to begin so early.
00:32:43.480And I do think that, look, the attorney general in Ohio should be looking at the same kind of activity.
00:32:51.020And if he needs authority from Governor DeWine, he should be calling on Governor DeWine to give it to him.
00:32:58.080But he doesn't – by the way, it doesn't – he has the ability – correct me if I'm wrong.
00:33:05.040Can he designate a special counsel or special prosecutor to go into the thing without getting the governor's sign-off?
00:33:13.400Or does the governor have to approve all of that?
00:33:16.480So I'm not an expert in Ohio law either, so I want to make that clear.
00:33:20.680But when I took a quick look at the statutes, it looks like ordinarily at the trial court and intermediate appellate level,
00:33:28.100the local prosecutor's control, and the state AG advises.
00:33:33.680When a case goes to the state Supreme Court, then the state AG takes over.
00:33:37.980But the governor can direct the state AG to get involved in any phase.
00:33:43.060And there is, as you noted, independent special counsel appointment authority.
00:33:47.260But if Yost wanted to retain full control over this, right, I would think that he would do best to ask Governor DeWine for the authority to take over, you know, the whole kit and caboodle.
00:34:00.340OK. Note to self, DeWine's going to be called in his staff, so I don't think that's going to happen.
00:34:12.400But I like the thought, I like the thought, that's what he's going to have to have, independent authority.
00:34:18.360Leahy, for the people that missed it this morning, right there, Shapiro, they're giving a litany, you know, and Michael Regan stands up and he says, hey, DOT, you know, Buttigieg has been working.
00:34:59.940How phony are these guys now that it's a forcing function?
00:35:02.580And by the way, how are they trying to dump it on the poor fire chief?
00:35:05.540Steve, what I noticed about this press conference today is that EPA Administrator Michael Regan did not address the key issue, which was this.
00:35:18.100Why did the EPA abdicate its legal responsibility to take control and make the decision up or down on a controlled burn?
00:35:26.680And as we mentioned, as we broke the story earlier this morning, EPA Region 5 spokesperson told us that, oh, no, it wasn't the EPA that made this decision.
00:35:39.040It was the fire chief of this, you know, 5,000-person village, East Palestine.
00:35:46.900And everyone at EPA, including the administrator, Michael Regan, knows that the fire chief does not have that authority and that it's, in fact, to allow them to do that as a violation of the law.
00:36:19.580He says we're going to force them to remediate immediately, and they're going to move everything, and we're going to charge them three times as much.
00:36:25.880Dude, we don't care about remediation.
00:36:27.580You can't get any company in the world to do it, okay?
00:37:30.100Steve, he's totally botched this, Regan, the EPA administrator.
00:37:36.640He issued an order through Region 5 today to Norfolk Southern under the CIRCLA statute, the Superfund statute that I've been talking to you about.
00:37:46.780This is of a press release summarizing it.
00:37:49.540EPA's order marks the transition of the multi-agency response from its emergency phase to a longer-term remediation phase.
00:37:57.660To help implement the order, EPA will establish a unified command structure to coordinate the cleanup efforts of FEMA, HHS, Ohio EPA, Ohio EMA, PA, DEP, as well as Norfolk Southern.
00:38:12.640This approach is frequently used in situations where multiple agencies need to work together.
00:38:17.380In this case, the response includes federal, state, and local agencies across multiple states.
00:38:21.940Well, what's remarkable about that, Steve, is that the unified command is being established now, which is what, like 18 days after this incident happened?
00:38:32.200The unified command under EPA control should have happened immediately.
00:38:37.500It should have happened at the very latest the next day.
00:38:40.300We were told by Governor DeWine, and this is the effort you're talking about to throw the fire chief under the bus, that he was made the head of the unified command until EPA finally woke up, I think in part as a result of this show and in part result of President Trump saying he's going to go there.
00:38:57.460So to have a unified command appointed now, it reveals that they know that they botched this.
00:39:02.720They should have had a unified command far, far earlier than this, Steve.
00:39:06.560EPA should have taken control of this whole action.
00:39:10.300Do you believe, Jeff Clark, as you look at this, that there's criminal negligence on the part of the state governments here?
00:39:22.860But there's criminal liability by individuals and agencies of the U.S. government and the local governments in Pennsylvania and in Ohio, sir?
00:39:32.880I think that needs to be explored, Steve.
00:39:35.760And whenever you're talking about government officials becoming liable, you're talking about all kinds of immunity defenses.
00:39:43.080You're talking about if EPA, you know, is not telling the full truth and they actually did approve or give a wink and nod to what the fire chief was doing or what the state of Ohio was doing, that would also add defenses.
00:39:56.720So the first thing, though, is they can clearly be witnesses.
00:39:59.940And I think they need to be called into PA and Ohio grand jury processes.
00:40:05.160And then we can assess, once we know all the facts and once we see people testifying against one another, exactly where the liability criminally might lie.
00:40:16.420Michael Patrick Leahy, where's the reporting of the Ohio Star going on this story, sir?
00:40:20.700Well, we've got to follow up with I can only describe it as the performative nature of the conduct of the EPA administrator here.
00:40:31.700He's got he's got to answer the questions, as you point out, that the mainstream media is not asking him.
00:40:39.380Why did you give up your legal authority to control the situation from the very beginning?
00:40:47.920Were you thinking about your trip to Africa?
00:40:49.920These are important questions that we want to we're going to get right right in the grill, if you will, of the EPA and of Michael Regan and ask the questions that the mainstream media will not ask.
00:41:05.360Michael Patrick, how do they get to the Ohio Star Star News Network, your social media?
00:41:10.960The Ohio Star dot com, the Star News Network dot com.
00:41:14.880And you can reach me on Twitter, Getter and Truth Social at Michael P. Leahy.
00:41:34.700This should just should have been paint by numbers with the unified command.
00:41:37.740And now they've let us know they never had it in the first place.
00:41:40.780And this is why it's spun out of control, because it wasn't important enough to them.
00:41:44.620How what what would you recommend the next step be in driving that process wise?
00:41:49.420So, you know, we're going to see President Trump speak to this.
00:41:54.760I hope that, you know, he watches this or gets wind of it.
00:41:58.160I think he needs to complain about this bitterly as a betrayal of the people of East Palestine.
00:42:05.120They deserved much better than they got from our federal administrative agencies.
00:42:09.880Their budgets continue to to mount up to the sky, you know, including for Regan to fly on a junket to Africa with Idris Elba.
00:42:19.380But, you know, it's not focused on the things you should be focused on.
00:42:22.440We know about how incompetent Buttigieg is with his little bicycle helmet riding around D.C. and the like.
00:42:28.680But I also think, Steve, that to really penetrate into what EPA knew and when they knew it and how they proceeded,
00:42:36.060that there should be some kind of congressional hearing about this, you know, from the committees of jurisdiction in both the House and the Senate.
00:48:45.180By the way, one of the people in the engine room just sent me, Norfolk Southern notified EPA at 2253 on that first night, that Friday night.
00:48:53.440By law, they got to immediately designate, the National Response Center is going to immediately designate on-scene coordinator.
00:48:59.660They got to designate on-scene coordinator and one of the EPA guys who will get to all this tomorrow.
00:49:05.440All you're seeing is spending, by the way, Trump going was the forcing function, just like Trump coming out against this war is a forcing function.
00:49:14.800And that action is going to be in the best interest, in the vital national security interest of the United States of America and her citizens.
00:49:30.160And I'll walk you through the details tomorrow.
00:49:31.940This is why President Trump was all over them to pay the 2% of GDP so they could defend themselves, of which they've never done, except for, wait for it, the polls.
00:49:40.380Okay, by the way, next hour we've got Christian Ziegler.
00:49:44.780We had Karamo on this morning, this blow-away grassroots win in Michigan.
00:49:48.820We've got Christian Ziegler, the chairman of Florida.
00:51:14.100We have a lot of people who report that their blood pressure has improved, and that's great, but our science is about managing cholesterol.
00:51:22.280And in my personal case, I started taking our product 18 years ago, and I reduced my bad cholesterol from 130 to 89.
