Trump signs an executive order declaring that the war on women in sports is over. But what does this mean for the future of women's sports? And what does it mean for women's equality in the workplace and in the classroom?
00:03:15.100This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies, because we're going to
00:03:21.100medieval on these people. Here's what I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:03:28.100The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that.
00:03:31.100I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
00:03:34.100It's going to happen. And where do people like that go to share the big line?
00:03:39.100Mega media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:03:46.100Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:03:50.100If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:03:57.100War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Vance.
00:04:00.100It's Wednesday, 5 February, Year of Our Lord 2025.
00:04:07.100Welcome to the late afternoon, early evening edition of the War Room.
00:04:12.100We're going to get down. We've got a lot to go through this afternoon and early this evening.
00:04:17.100We're going to go to the White House in a while to our own Natalie Winters.
00:04:21.100I want to start the war on women is drawing to a close because of President Trump.
00:04:28.100I want to bring in Carrie Sheffield, Independent Women's Forum, Independent Women's Voice.
00:04:33.100Carrie, I think if memory serves me correctly, years ago, you're the very first person to come on War Room and highlight to our audience this situation with men playing women's sports.
00:04:46.100I remember talking beforehand. I go, is this actually a thing? And then you shocked the MAGA movement by telling us it actually was a thing.
00:04:55.100How big a day was this for you, ma'am?
00:04:57.100Steve, I am not tired of winning. This was an earthquake. This was the restoration of women's rights. This was the moment where the left was exposed.
00:05:12.100Even you heard the president in that clip you played. He said, keep doing this, please.
00:05:17.100Please, left, keep doing this because we're going to keep winning in elections because you don't care about women.
00:05:23.100You don't care about the bodily safety, the bodily autonomy of women. You don't care that women are beaten to pulps.
00:05:31.100She mentioned the boxer during the Olympics. She had to forfeit after just over 40 seconds because she knew she could die or get a concussion from a man.
00:05:40.100That is a party, the Democratic Party, the leftist Marxism. They do not care about women. That's what this is about.
00:05:48.100And so this was a phenomenal day. And thank you, Steve, and Captain Bannon and your whole team for years for supporting us in this cause.
00:05:57.100It was a momentous day. And I just it's it's truth wins.
00:06:03.100Carrie, I want to go back. I want to do two things. Number one, people would think that the Democratic Party was, you know, you had these feminists that came out of the 60s and 70s.
00:06:12.100It's always puts itself forward is that, you know, Republicans or the populist nationalists are heartless. Conservatives are heartless.
00:06:19.100They're they're nurturing and they're forgiving and they're, you know, they're they're the easy ones are always there to have someone lean on their shoulder.
00:06:27.100Why do you say that they're they're the ones driving the war on women? That would be that would be counterintuitive, wouldn't it?
00:06:34.100Well, when when someone can't even define what a woman is, they're unable to define defend who that person is.
00:06:42.100You can't define it. You can't defend it. And so the complete unmooring from reality, from biology, from truth, that's really what this is about.
00:06:52.100It is a fundamental unmooring from the truth. And the transgender stuff is just one issue.
00:06:57.100We see this everywhere else that, you know, darkness and disorder versus truth and order.
00:07:04.100That's really what this is about. And that's what I love about your work, Steve, and with War Room, that you understand that this is not just a superficial political fight.
00:07:12.100This is much deeper. This is a fight over what is right and wrong, evil and good, light and dark, truth and lies.
00:07:20.100And what was very telling the Washington Post news alert about this. I'll read the wording here.
00:07:27.100It says the new order threatens to deny federal funds for schools that allow transgender athletes to compete in K through 12 college and sports.
00:07:34.100It's the latest salvo in President Donald Trump's attack on transgender rights.
00:07:39.100Another that will ricochet through schools across the country as the president delivers on another contentious culture war promise.
00:07:47.100My goodness, Steve, like the language here, an attack on transgender rights to completely ignore what Joe Biden and the woke left did to women's rights, women's rights who are vulnerable.
00:08:04.100News flash, women are physically smaller. We're not as strong as men.
00:08:08.100That's what that's supposedly what the feminist left fought for, was to acknowledge we are different from men.
00:08:15.100That's what Title Nine was. Title Nine, which was signed by a Republican, by the way, Richard Nixon.
00:08:21.100But it was a bipartisan bill because it was a Democrat Congress. Title Nine was under threat by Joe Biden, who wanted to completely rewrite it.
00:08:29.100He put out ridiculous regulations toward that effect. We challenged it in the courts at IWF.
00:08:36.100And credit to my colleague, May Melman, who wrote that executive order also that President Trump issued on day one as well.
00:08:42.100So this is if this is the tack that the language that I just read from The Washington Post, if that's the language they want to take to say that this is an attack on transgender rights instead of the restoration of women's rights.
00:08:54.100Steve, we're going to keep winning. So, Kerry, I want to go back from when you first started coming on the show and the guys started to have the march and Captain Bannon would go and the march was huge.
00:09:06.100And you guys kicking up a storm. I thought certain things were being done.
00:09:10.100I knew in the courts, but I thought even at the state level, the House was passing stuff.
00:09:15.100I'm trying to put stuff out there. Did did none of that work?
00:09:19.100And that's why you had to have the order the other day in the executive order today.
00:09:23.100Did did all those things we worked at the state level where they just not powerful enough to kind of punch through this because these folks kept rolling?
00:09:33.100And that's why you needed President Trump to sign an executive order.
00:09:36.100Well, we took it as a full court press. We took it as our strategy was let's flood the zone.
00:09:42.100We do state, local, federal. We do all of the above. And that's I think that's partially what's worked is because it's raised the issue.
00:09:49.100And, yes, we won state fights. But, Steve, we didn't win state fights in every state.
00:09:54.100We only won it in some states. I mean, our goal is to win it in every state.
00:09:58.100But we wanted the federal protections as well because this is about federal money going to these schools.
00:10:04.100And so whether you're talking about state or federal dollars, state or federal enforcement, we need an all of the above approach.
00:10:11.100And again, I think one of the most powerful ads that we saw last cycle was when the Trump campaign released the ad saying Biden or I guess it was by that point, Kamala.
00:10:23.100Kamala is for they them. Donald Trump is for you. And this is something that is it's far reaching beyond just sports.
00:10:32.100You know, some people on the left like to say, oh, well, these are a bunch of whiny suburban rich girls crying about their lacrosse team.
00:10:38.100No, this is far beyond just sports. We're talking also about prison.
00:10:45.100So at Independent Women's Forum, we've put out a documentary series about prisons, women's prisons.
00:10:52.100This is this affects not only prisons. It affects battered domestic violence shelters.
00:10:57.100It affects, you know, anywhere where a woman's bodily safety and vulnerability is exposed to a man.
00:11:05.100This is the new left. This is what the left wants. And it is so it is so it's the twilight zone.
00:11:13.100This is this is like I can't believe that we're at this point.
00:11:17.100But again, it's because our culture has fallen so far from our Judeo Christian roots that the idea that there is an objective truth has been thrown by the wayside.
00:11:27.100And that what is it's so beautiful that President Trump is reminding us that the truth does exist.
00:11:34.100And we're not crazy, Steve. We're not crazy. We will not be gaslit anymore.
00:11:37.100Terry Schilling, Kerry, hang on, because I want to hold you through the break and into the next block.
00:11:47.100Terry Schilling, I remember we first came to me about this, like with Kerry, and it was like, are you kidding me?
00:11:52.100Is this a real thing? Go back in that time. I mean, this kind of came out of I think it came out of nowhere.
00:11:57.100I know as we get more experts on here, the brain and shoulders other they said, no, no, no, this has been years in the building.
00:12:04.100What building what shocks me is how the party supposedly of feminism came up and really drove this thing, sir.
00:12:14.100Well, Steve, this is something that, you know, took a lot of work, a lot of blood, sweat and tears, a lot of getting made fun of and laughed at.
00:12:24.100But, you know, today was a great day is a great day of victory.
00:12:28.100The real reason why the feminists on the left have been so egregious and terrible and absent at best on this issue of gender and transgenderism is because they seek to eliminate all differences between men and women.
00:12:44.100They want to destroy gender by using gender. Right. And that's not, you know, something I came up with.
00:12:50.100They told us that Judith Butler has written multiple times and said in multiple interviews that on the issue of transgenderism, their goal is to use gender to destroy gender.
00:13:01.100So what they want to do is overload the system, introduce all this stuff that doesn't make any sense, confuse children at the youngest grades.
00:13:07.100Their goal is this like disgusting, unappealing, androgynous world where there are no more men. There are no more women. It's just androgyny and reproduction is controlled by the state because we can't handle it.
00:13:24.100We produce too many people. We cause climate change. We create all types of social problems.
00:13:30.100They want all of this to be controlled and mandated by the state. That is the real goal of at least the third or second wave feminists.
00:13:39.100They want to destroy gender. They don't like that men exist. They don't like that women exist.
00:13:43.100They want something in between to where they can control it.
00:13:46.100And now you've got this insane gender industry now, Steve, that's mutilating adults and children. It's four and a half billion dollars right now. Most of that comes from our tax dollars, Medicaid and state funding.
00:14:01.100It's it's forced to be covered by our health insurance premiums now. President Trump's erasing all that, though.
00:14:07.100So I think that Trump's right. This whole gender madness is going to go go away very quickly.
00:14:12.100He's instructed DOJ, for example, to investigate doctors and clinics who perform these surgeries on children.
00:14:18.100It's a beautiful day in America, and it wouldn't be here without War Room and President Trump's enormous victory this past fall.
00:14:25.100Well, it was President Trump, but it's here because of War Room Posse and Carrie Sheffield and Terry Schelling and others.
00:14:32.100So many others. Dozens and dozens we had in the show, but the work, the labor in the in the in the vineyards.
00:14:38.100We're going to take a short commercial break and return to this topic. Another victory today in days of thunder.
00:14:45.100President Trump is coming in hot in the Oval Office.
00:14:50.100Johnny Kahn takes us out. Johnny Kahn from Breitbart. Short commercial break. Back in the morning.
00:14:55.100Have you seen the news from economists forecasting a depression? I'm not talking recession.
00:17:09.100Man, I didn't know anything about this.
00:17:11.100As I told Terry at the time, this is not my line of country.
00:17:13.100I told Brandon Showalter, but it was darker and more bizarre the more you get into it.
00:17:21.100Schilling, what's exactly in the executive order?
00:17:24.100President Trump signed this and it didn't come first day because they had been working on this one.
00:17:28.100What is in this executive order and why is that important?
00:17:32.100So this executive order is very similar to the anti-DEI executive orders, which is essentially saying that allowing males to compete against women by identifying that is a violation of civil rights law.
00:17:46.100So it's changed. It's basically going back to the original definition of sex under Title IX and all of civil rights law.
00:17:53.100So if you interpret that to mean men who claim to be women, you are now violating the law.
00:18:00.100And now you're at risk of losing federal funding for any of your education programs.
00:18:04.100Title IX is all about educational opportunities for women.
00:18:07.100And so it instructs DOJ and the Department of Education to interpret Title IX as only regarding biological sex and none of these made up categories in between.
00:18:21.100So, Kerry Sheffield, what does that mean practically from what you've been focused on?
00:18:54.100This is the power of denying funding by designating people who violate this executive order as a violator of civil rights.
00:19:04.100And practically, as in that clip you played earlier, this has affected more than 11,000 competitions designed for women and 3,500 victories where men and boys stole prizes, scholarships, victories that should have gone to women and girls.
00:19:25.100And so you're talking about tens of thousands of events already just in the last few years.
00:19:33.100We're talking generations forward of millions of women and girls as long as this is made permanent.
00:19:41.100And the question I know we were talking earlier about this, what he signed today as an executive order, and we know those are here today, gone tomorrow.
00:19:50.100The silver lining, though, is that President Trump also signed into law a piece of legislation, which is H.R. 28.
00:19:58.100And that was signed into law last month.
00:20:00.100I was there for the press conference with Speaker Mike Johnson right after the House had passed that bill.
00:20:07.100And you know what was fascinating was that only two House Democrats passed or supported that bill.
00:20:16.100One of them was Cuellar from Texas, who is the only pro-life Democrat left in Congress.
00:20:22.100And the fact that only two, and they were both men, that no Democrat woman stood up for women's rights in the entire United States House of Representatives is a sad commentary on the state of women's rights in this country.
00:20:41.100Terry Schilling, what are currently the politics of this?
00:20:43.100You guys have changed the arc of this.
00:20:45.100President Trump has changed the arc of it.
00:20:47.100But where do we stand right now, given there's no doubt on the cultural side, this is one of the more important of the cultural issues, because I think it woke people up to how radical these people are.
00:20:58.100As Kerry just said, when you had the bill, only two Democrats and one, I don't think the Democrats consider Cuellar even a Democrat given a stance on immigration.
00:21:07.100What is the politics of this right now, sir?
00:21:09.100So now that we've won with this executive order, we've got to drive this home through the House and through the Senate.
00:21:17.100And here's where I'm concerned, Steve, is that McConnell, when he was in the Senate, he didn't want to bring up any votes that weren't going to pass.
00:21:25.100And that is not how things should be done.
00:21:27.100We need to hold these guys accountable, get them on the record, force every single Democrat in the Senate to vote yes or no.
00:21:34.100Do you think that men who claim to be women should be allowed to play in girls' sports?
00:21:38.100And C, what I'll tell you is, and you know this better than most, we're going to be spending $5 million in the Virginia governor's race this year.
00:21:45.100We just got out of the field with two of our focus groups testing this issue in Virginia.
00:21:51.100And what we found, this is with swing voters, what we found is that this issue isn't going away.
00:21:56.100It's actually much more powerful and stronger than it was before the election because now it's much more real in the minds of voters.
00:22:03.100When this issue wasn't that real and when people still dismissed it saying that this isn't happening, but it's good that it is, it wasn't as powerful, but it was still powerful.
00:22:13.100Now that voters see that it's actually happening and President Trump has shined a spotlight on this for the whole country to see, now it's even more powerful and effective.
00:22:22.100So we've really got to drive this home in campaigns and elections from now up until we get this law passed, because if we don't, we will lose momentum and it will run out and they'll eventually sneak this thing through.
00:22:33.100But we've got to get votes in the Senate.
00:23:00.100This was the number one issue for swing voters in the election for swing voters, not talking about motivating the base, not talking about motivating the Democratic base.
00:23:07.100This is the number one issue for people that were having a tough time to open up, tough time deciding who to vote for.
00:24:11.100And there is a high school, Washington and Liberty High School, not too far from where I live.
00:24:17.100And they just removed an individual who had a sex crime history who was claiming to be a female and was exposing himself in the girls' locker room.
00:24:30.100So it's a shared, it's a high school pool, but it's open to the community.
00:24:33.100They have a separate entrance for the general public.
00:24:37.100And so this dude was going in and exposing himself to young girls and women.
00:24:43.100And it's been this scandal here in Arlington.
00:24:46.100And the guy tried to claim the defense that, well, I'm, you know, I'm transgender, so I can go in here if I want to.
00:24:53.100Well, you can't if you are a pedophile.
00:24:56.100Basically, as I understand it, he has a criminal record for something involving underage girls.
00:25:03.100And the same thing happened with Loudoun County where you had a father, you know, you saw that video, just angry because his daughter was assaulted by a boy wearing a skirt and allowed in the girls' bathroom.
00:31:52.100Next hour in the war, we'll be going through a lot of specifics that have been put up all afternoon on MSNBC about the resistance and about their meltdown over things like USAID.
00:32:03.100But Natalie Winters, you've been ahead of the curve from the beginning.
00:32:08.100Well, look, I think we've been really right in terms of triaging and sort of, I think, reverse engineering the resistance's response to what is going on at USAID.
00:32:21.100And why it's so critical, why it's such a linchpin in all of their sort of resistance 2.0 efforts.
00:32:27.100And I will say, Steve, it's quite interesting.
00:32:29.100Obviously, one of the, I think, most important reasons that we're here in the press briefing room is because the idea that civil society, the media, is how they're going to push back.
00:32:37.100So we have, you know, the insight, the ability to report on basically, I guess we can watch the watchers, but all up and down media row, every legacy media outlet in the same way that you know they would be pointing to every example when they can undermine President Trump on any narrative on any issue.
00:32:52.100It's not like they're putting a bunch of USAID contractors up or recipients of grants, you know, doing the sort of sad fear porn propaganda about how wonderful all of these USAID grants have been.
00:33:04.100And you know why? It's because they're not wonderful. It's because they're not about, you know, helping foreign countries, which even I reject that premise.
00:33:12.100It's about, frankly, destroying this country. And someone like Samantha Power has understood the weaponization of apparatuses like the USAID for so long, right, the weaponization against the American people, the destruction.
00:33:24.940Frankly, you talk about de-dollarization. I think USAID is a prime example of that.
00:33:29.100But to that point, I think this whole exercise has been really interesting because some of the staunchest defenders now of USAID, that being institutions like the Brookings Institution and basically all of the think tanks here in Washington, D.C.,
00:33:42.540well, despite coming out with all the hit pieces, all the articles about how USAID is so critical and so important and we must defend them,
00:33:49.980it's quite curious, Steve, because they never disclose in any of their stories that they've actually been multimillion-dollar grant recipients from USAID themselves.
00:33:58.920It's quite interesting. Obviously, the Politico story, in addition to BBC, the New York Times, I think really is sort of a mask-off moment.
00:34:06.220Caroline Levitt today during her press briefing saying, yeah, about that $8 million grant, that's canceled, that's done.
00:34:11.960We love to see action being taken from that podium right then and there.
00:34:15.600But this really shows you, and Steve, I think to sort of contextualize this, just to wrap it all up, people may recall in 2023, it was October, the Biden White House started leaking to Politico.
00:34:27.260They were weaponizing in local media outlets saying that the way we're going to get the American people to support aid for Ukraine, despite faltering, cratering support for it, wasn't by doing audits,
00:34:37.360wasn't by showing us where our, I guess, just $77 billion in taxpayer dollars were going, but what they were going to do was lie and deceive the American people
00:34:45.500and say that Ukraine aid was actually really, really wonderful for the American industrial base, actually was great for American taxpayers and certainly great for military defense contractors.
00:34:55.480That's the same exact playbook that you're seeing come from the mainstream media right now.
00:35:00.100They don't want to audit it because they know it's a deep, dark, depraved underbelly.
00:35:04.720All they want to do is try to euphemize and whitewash the legacy of USAID.
00:35:09.240That's what you saw the presser going on outside the steps tomorrow.
00:35:11.880But I will say, Steve, today there was another press gaggle of a bunch of Democratic senators outside of the Capitol, not on the steps of USAID.
00:35:19.600And if you look at the reporting, the coverage of it, they were getting booed and heckled, shouted down.
00:35:48.720It's metastasizing just about an hour ago.
00:35:51.420Democracy Forward, who's CEO and met with Chuck Schumer this morning to talk about how they were going to use litigation to, you know, defeat President Trump.
00:36:01.760But they're now suing the Department of Labor, saying that, oh, you know, Doge is trying to do what they're doing there.
00:36:06.660So it's really, I think, an interesting sort of reframe back and forth over the idea that what they're trying to do with Doge is some, like, authoritarian, as Jen Psaki says, hostile takeover of the United States.
00:36:19.100It's what President Trump was elected for.
00:36:21.300And it's not just the cutesy waste, rotten abuse about the musicals.
00:36:24.860It's about the full-blown, full-scale weaponization of government agencies to destroy this country from within.
00:36:31.440Yeah, I want to go back to that for a second and have you explain that one more time for the audience, because there's a lot of stuff on the Internet.
00:36:38.700And today, I think, particularly with USAID, I would strongly recommend don't go into the heading, it's too good to check.
00:36:46.080Some of the things that are coming up are when they sound too good to check, you better check them because there's some crazy stuff coming out.
00:36:51.780But traditionally, conservatives, Republicans, ourselves have gone, you know, they've got the drag queen story hour or they're funding, you know, a gay, you know, wicked in sub-Saharan Africa, things like that, right?
00:37:11.640You're saying, I want you to make the case why that is not what we're talking about here.
00:37:16.720The USAID is much deeper and, quite frankly, even deeper than, I think, being a CIA cutout overseas.
00:37:24.420There's deeper stuff on the suppression of information, the suppression of conservative voices here.
00:37:30.760Also, the funding with the NGOs for the invasion of the country.
00:37:36.240I mean, this is an incredibly well-organized, incredibly smart people that essentially had a kitty every year of $50 billion.
00:37:43.360And it shows you you can go a long way in destroying America, ma'am.
00:37:49.640Look, the musicals, I think, are sort of the limited hangout version of it.
00:37:53.560But to that point, it is curious to me that even the mainstream media is not trying to, you know, have those people, right, on their programs pumping the airwaves saying, look, what we're doing is so great.
00:38:04.000I've yet to see a bunch of USAID contractors or grant recipients, right?
00:38:07.500That would be interesting messaging that I would think they'd be wanting to push.
00:38:12.220As someone who has spent hours of my life, days of my life in the USAspending.gov database, in the Farrah filings, looking at how sort of all this funding works, the problem is systemic in the sense that all the American people get to understand about the billions, if not trillions, of taxpayer dollars that we are hemorrhaging to these foreign countries or these U.S.-based NGOs.
00:38:35.360It's like the start date, the end date, and maybe 50-word summary, and who it's going to.
00:38:43.380And the summary is typically something along the lines of countering disinformation.
00:38:47.940And the group that it's going to, sometimes it's an undisclosed foreign recipient or undisclosed domestic recipient, and there's nothing we can do to understand who that money's going to.
00:38:58.540But more precisely, and this was reporting that Raheem Kassam and I had sent over at the National Pulse years ago, we had looked up on Google Maps dozens of the addresses of the so-called fact-checking grant recipients or the misinformation grant recipients.
00:39:15.100They're shacks on the side of the road.
00:39:18.880It is clean and simple, pure and simple money laundering.
00:39:24.160Moreover, Steve, when you talk about the misinformation, kind of censorship industrial complex angle to it, the grants to combat misinformation, if you itemize them, which I had done, they all start, I'm talking upwards of 95% of them, post-2016.
00:39:42.080Now, this idea that misinformation has always been an existential threat, that's not true.
00:39:45.920The government only started responding to it after President Trump won, but more acutely and more precisely, there was a populist wave surging.
00:39:55.320And if you look, there were grants that specifically talked about debunking and pre-bunking populist sentiment, but they've always used misinformation as a tool, right, to suppress our movement.
00:40:07.300And when you see them funding to the tune of millions of dollars combating misinformation initiatives in Bangladesh or in Uzbekistan or in Kazakhstan or in Armenia, and the only thing you get is a 50-word synopsis that we're going to empower journalists to counter misinformation in this third-world country that I don't even think has, you know, Wi-Fi we can barely reach.
00:40:28.640It really begs the question of what's actually going on there, and like you said, Steve, the media wants to look at this issue through the paradigm of autocratic hostile takeover of the United States foreign government.
00:40:40.240How about the fact that it's actually just giving radical transparency to the American people?
00:40:47.060But the issue is that radical transparency would expose the fact that USAID is, and frankly always has been, probably the agency that is most responsible for building those beautiful mansions along the Potomac, developing all of K Street, all of this town that I'm standing in right now.
00:41:05.140Because there's no auditing going on, but it's not a mistake, it's by design, and they're melting down.
00:41:13.400Frankly, it's probably their donors calling them saying, run to the steps of USAID because I'm about to be exposed for what I am, and that's a grifter, a liar, and a fraud, all at the expense of U.S. taxpayer dollars.
00:41:25.120Natalie, the White House, I know they're full, they've got the no men and women's sports, he's dealing with the tariff situation, Gaza was a big thing today of talking about his idea, but the redevelopment of Gaza.
00:41:39.980It seems to me that the White House and the comm shop has taken a real kind of hand, I know Caroline mentioned it today, but it doesn't look like they're all in on pushing this, they're letting outside groups and people that really know the math here drill down on it.
00:41:54.960What is their strategy? Because tonight, bringing Samantha Powers back from the beach to go on Rachel Maddow and Primetime MSNBC specifically talk about this and to push it all afternoon shows you what a big pushback they're going to get.
00:42:10.740Well, look, I would take the doge brainiacs and the twittered researchers, independent researchers over Samantha Power any day, and I think the American people would co-sign on that, that's a bet, I would definitely bet on the former.
00:42:25.360But no, I mean, I think Elon Musk and his team of just general influencers really has been doing a wonderful job of exposing the waste, fraud and abuse and also nefarious activities that are going on at USAID.
00:42:40.480I think the White House, when I got here, it's so busy, I will say it was really a feeling of jubilation.
00:42:45.400I think there are so many cute young girls walking around who are just really, really excited about what President Trump had done with his executive order, bringing in a bunch of influencers to sort of cover it.
00:42:55.220So they're obviously firing on all verticals.
00:42:57.760And I think it's nice that, you know, even our audience, I think, is sort of chipping in to the whole investigative reporting aspect here and just exposing USAID for the fraud that it is.
00:43:06.340Obviously, they're taking action on it, right?
00:43:09.080She was asked about the $8 million to Politico, yes, sort of in the form of subscriptions.
00:43:13.540But from the podium, she said, canceling that, that's done.
00:43:17.420I'd also cross-apply that to the BBC and the New York Times.
00:43:21.100But they're responding to the evidence that the American people are putting forward, which I think is truly revolutionary and a testament that this is the people's president, right?
00:43:31.240We can create a whole news cycle and a whole really takeover of a just absolutely backwards government institution that's called USAID just from a couple of tweets.
