00:02:34.140
comes out of this sir well what i hope it's funny what i hope comes out of this is what i hope comes
00:02:39.840
out of the you know the argument that is going on on market floors over the course of the day
00:02:43.880
um although i don't put much faith uh in those people who seem you know i think president trump
00:02:48.800
called them panicans this morning um the the idea that the the so-called wealthiest strongest
00:02:56.960
militarily nation in the world um cannot endure something like this where we actually have oh i don't
00:03:03.840
know maybe a little redistribution in the in the in towards the ordinary american and the idea that
00:03:10.600
america cannot go overseas like pete hexath is doing today and actually say hey we built this damn thing
00:03:16.440
you know and literally and we have we have you know given our blood and our treasure for this and you
00:03:22.080
want to hand it over to the chinese communist party the same thing with the chagos islands i actually
00:03:27.140
just published up on the national pulse.com steve an explainer over the chagos islands diego garcia
00:03:33.700
why it matters because this is going to become a thing again in the next couple of weeks as the
00:03:38.980
administration gets pushed and as the british government tries to give this away effectively
00:03:42.120
again to the chinese communist party but hey look if you have the strength if you have the temerity
00:03:47.520
if you have the audacity if you reach just a little bit higher look what happens the european
00:03:52.720
union turns around today goes actually we kind of do want to negotiate with you we will come to that
00:03:56.840
table hey you know get my message to the markets and to the republicans especially on capitol hill
00:04:02.320
is get your heads in the game and stop being those weaklings that you've built that you've been for so
00:04:07.280
very long that era of america is over i want to transition to finton because tom finton's here to
00:04:15.560
talk about personnel there's not a bigger defender of president trump or bigger defender of this
00:04:20.240
administration than tom finton tom finton i've known this guy now for 15 years one of the great
00:04:24.260
patriots in our country he's got some issues about personnel you've got some issues about personnel
00:04:29.660
lara loomer goes in last week and uh you know six guys the national security council get blown out
00:04:34.900
there's there's some issues not just getting your sea legs but who did the filtering process and
00:04:39.840
really what's going on here one more time raheem on the national security side you said hey they're
00:04:44.460
just starting to learn how to work together as a team what is your recommend recommendation to
00:04:49.560
president trump about personnel on the national security side as far as you see it because you're
00:04:55.180
right we haven't taken a big role in in the uh in the dia Garcia thing and we have to there's been
00:05:00.800
kind of crickets about brazil uh really not that aggressive so far until pete goes down about what's
00:05:06.400
happened in the caribbean a ccp takeover uh president trump came out the first time president
00:05:11.480
trump came out and had le pen's uh back but you've seen a note no comment at all on korea the coup d'etat
00:05:17.420
by the chinese communist party take the conservative out what is your recommendation
00:05:20.680
on the national security side raheem for president trump on personnel i got two number one you know
00:05:27.520
my directly uh president trump the people who have your back on domestic policy on tariff policy they
00:05:35.060
are also the people who have your back on foreign policy you do not need to go to the aeis of the
00:05:40.560
world you do not need to go to the neocon institutions of the world you do not need to listen to the
00:05:45.640
lindsey graham's of the world to get you over the line on foreign policy we have it within
00:05:50.140
the the hardcore og maga populist nationalist wheelhouse that that can work too and if you
00:05:56.920
need recommendations of people themselves i got a a list as long as my arm the second one is listen
00:06:04.160
this is what happens when when you when you try and i look i know this made me extremely unpopular
00:06:09.780
on capitol hill so good thing i'm getting out of town today this is what happens when you throw away
00:06:13.960
project 2025 you know that was that was a database and a list and a and a document that actually had
00:06:20.260
the best interest of maga at its core you didn't have to agree with everything but at the end of
00:06:24.740
the day what was project 2025 it wasn't the things that the media told you it was it was a database of
00:06:29.500
personnel who had been vetted who we knew were maga to their core who actually could uh get in there
00:06:35.380
day one hit the ground running and put together uh the policies of the trump 2 administration so i would i
00:06:40.920
would dig up the old project 2025 database call paul dans get him back in there frankly and um and get
00:06:48.080
rolling get the vetted people raheem we're gonna let you go to uh to andrews we'll be covering you
00:06:54.640

00:07:10.320
well the national pulse.com everything we do is a hundred percent reader funded and you can follow
00:07:15.660
us at the nat pulse on all social media and i am at raheem kassam thank you steve thank you brother
00:07:23.320
a good trip and we'll stay in touch closely uh tom fitness on now i will tell you my dad that passed
00:07:28.900
away over 100 years old we revered him in the family a great guy just the common man he would
00:07:35.220
tell me every time i went back to richmond and i've tried to go back every week or every couple of
00:07:39.720
weeks the thing he loved giving money to most was tom finton he would hit tom finton with the 50s
00:07:47.360
or every now and again a 25 and he'd say he'd get that monthly magazine he goes he'd watch tom on tv
00:07:52.360
he goes this guy does exactly what he says he's going to do this guy's a fighter tom finton
00:07:57.600
you have been the biggest supporter of president trump you've been a huge supporter of cash patel
00:08:03.040
you're a close friend a huge supporter of dan bongino pam bondy everybody so when people see you up on
00:08:09.920
twitter and you're questioning some of the personnel decisions here i tell people people got to listen
00:08:15.680
because finton doesn't chase rabbits when tom finton's saying something it's important and it has
00:08:20.960
meaning and something's and something's going to happen about it over the weekend there's another
00:08:25.680
personnel issue like we've had to the national security council and other places on the national
00:08:29.620
security side with president trump what is going on what are your tweets about and quite frankly what's
00:08:36.060
your beef sir what struck me steve is how mild my issue was i mean the new i read this new york times
00:08:43.460
piece and i know why cash and dan didn't like it because it suggested that they were being swampy with
00:08:49.720
the fbi and there was a detail in there which was surprising to me was that they had elevated
00:08:54.880
to a significant position the head of the washington field office of the fbi is steve jensen
00:09:00.080
who many believe to be you know one of the worst in terms of pursuing the january sixers
00:09:07.220
being involved in the targeting of parents over daring to try to figure out what their kids are being
00:09:15.420
taught and uh turns out he gets elevated the new york times clearly noted this and i said what
00:09:23.800
and then we start getting the pushback it's fake news it's fake news what wasn't fake news
00:09:29.420
which was the implication was that the hire had taken place that was true and i guess the concern is from
00:09:36.200
from the fbi folks is that he's really a good guy not to worry about it and it's frustrating
00:09:42.020
because i don't know about you but i'm i'm still waiting for prosecutions now i know there's not
00:09:48.040
going to be an immediate prosecution but i want evidence that there's a serious criminal investigation
00:09:51.920
going on into these very people and i guess my big point would be it's not so much the personnel
00:09:58.060
it's the well personnel makes policy but i don't understand why marco rubio has been more aggressive
00:10:05.420
with usa id than cash and pam have been with the fbi i think they should be treated
00:10:11.720
similarly whether or not the you know it's not a question of who runs the washington field office
00:10:17.540
it's question is whether we have a washington field office
00:10:20.220
let's let's go back to jensen just for a moment i just want to make because this thing
00:10:26.960
calls controversy and i think tom that you under you're too self-effacing and i would tell you folks
00:10:33.600
tom finton does not promote himself he's not a self-promoter he's a man of few words but he gets
00:10:39.460
stuff done and that's why he's been considered a basic a linchpin of this movement for for a couple
00:10:45.760
of decades uh what is it about jensen because a lot of the audience may not know this what is about
00:10:51.620
jensen that you specifically have a concern about of him even being in the orbit of getting a job
00:10:58.040
particularly as big people should understand the washington field office of the fbi is i think even
00:11:03.480
more powerful than the new york fbi and those are the two the two major field offices what what is it
00:11:09.340
about jensen that concerns you that is even on the list of possibilities of having this immensely
00:11:15.220
powerful role he was a key figure in this domestic terror push against january sixers according to
00:11:22.960
testimony before the house uh he treated them all as terrorists and was one of the key instigators
00:11:29.820
in pushing the narrative within the bureaucracy uh that these folks needed to be jailed and ferreted
00:11:36.260
out and he also was instrumental in implicate and implementing uh to the degree it was implemented
00:11:43.460
the um the targeting of parents for going to their school boards and and remember um attorney general
00:11:52.340
garland uh suggested they should be treated as terrorists and domestic threats as well
00:11:56.740
and so it's this approach that uh presumably was rejected last year and yet he gets elevated to
00:12:04.500
this key position and again you know for all i know maybe he's a good guy and we're all misinterpreting
00:12:10.980
it but what i am not seeing out of the fbi yet and what i'm not seeing in the justice department yet
00:12:16.200
is a radical remaking or even talking about it that we've seen with usa id that we've seen with the
00:12:24.400
department of education and uh there's nothing the fbi is doing that another federal agency or local
00:12:31.000
or state of law enforcement can't do there's really nothing and these folks were behind an effort to
00:12:36.440
destroy our constitutional system the last four to ten years and the idea that we're just moving seats
00:12:44.360
around and moving people in and out and that will solve it to me is naive and and i just want more
00:12:51.160
done in a more timely way i mean for instance foia there's been no change of foia from any federal
00:12:57.680
agency justice department is still stolen stonewalling us on information a court asked hey what's your
00:13:04.360
position on releasing this tape of joe biden being interviewed by her and the justice department said
00:13:10.480
give us three months we'll figure it out not acceptable
00:13:14.100
this isn't what we paid for do you do you think because these uh these folks are uh are i tell you
00:13:24.980
what can you hang on i'll hold you through break because you're both we couldn't have picked a better
00:13:30.440
dream team than pam cash patel uh dan bongino these are all guys people that are friends of yours
00:13:38.620
colleagues of yours you've known them for years you work with them for years and the question is
00:13:43.120
do we need a massive restructuring of what's happening over there or just trying to work on
00:13:48.120
the margins and what's the direction of this we know what president trump wants that's quite evident

parliament you can't do it but i understand your feelings she's going they're all compromised they all
00:17:16.960
hate trump they're all corrupt they're all on the take i got it we just got to clean out the
00:17:21.440
rat's nest let's go back to tom finton so tom what are you proposing what would you like what would
00:17:26.360
you like to see because you're you kind of speak for millions in the mega movement and the reason
00:17:32.300
i wanted to have you on today i've been bombarded by people saying we're the rest we're the
00:17:36.340
investigations we're the grand jurors they kind of look at ed martin over at the u.s attorney's
00:17:41.220
office in dc and they say hey that's kind of uh that looks like our guy right now but what's
00:17:47.020
happening overall so what's your recommendations what what would you specifically like to see
00:17:51.420
well the president's got to be the president uh and i would if i were president trump i'd be
00:17:57.780
reminding everyone around him that hey i'm the president we what that's what bugged me about
00:18:02.360
that signal chat escapade it wasn't so much that it took place it was what the substance was which
00:18:08.420
was they were second guessing decision second guessing a decision the president already made
00:18:13.040
and pam bondi isn't going to do it cash patel isn't going to remake the justice department or the
00:18:18.160
fbi they're going to be running it and it's not a criticism of them this is where the president
00:18:23.800
should step in and say this is what the fbi needs to look like or needs this is how it needs to be
00:18:28.580
changed i i can't be around anymore to do to others what they did to me and i tell you if after four
00:18:36.260
years nothing's been done other than they've reoriented the fbi or doj to focus on arresting
00:18:44.580
ms-13 then whoever comes in next time republican or democrat trump's going to be investigated again
00:18:51.880
people around trump are going to be subject to criminal investigation again and so what president
00:18:57.160
trump needs to do is to hire a special counsel run it out of the white house cash the fbi they can't
00:19:05.920
investigate themselves doj can't investigate themselves let's stop pretending that we that
00:19:11.880
these agencies are going to investigate their friends and colleagues it's not going to happen
00:19:16.980
and it's really not fair even to expect the leadership to to spend all their time investigating
00:19:23.600
their own people it's it's it's not going to happen organizationally it's why you need outsiders and
00:19:29.760
and for and cash patel should be told you know to follow marco rubio's lead on usa id shut it down
00:19:35.840
the reason i love this uh and as you know i'm close i love cash love dan love pan but the
00:19:44.400
reason i love this structurally is that we talk about that it's not about them it's not what
00:19:48.080
they're happening as a government the structure yeah this is it gets back to the unit unitary
00:19:54.180
executive theory i love the fact you're saying announce a special counsel that special counsel
00:19:59.380
reports directly to the president united states and is run out of the west wing okay this this puts
00:20:05.240
to rest the third part as he you know he's a chief executive officer we're in court fighting can he
00:20:10.440
can he cut personnel can he cut budgets can he can he impound money the the commander in chief they're
00:20:16.320
in court right now with bozberg uh trying to interfere with him being commander chief this is the third
00:20:20.980
leg of the stool which is being chief magistrate and chief law enforcement officer you you you take care
00:20:27.340
of all that by setting up a special counsel having directly report to the office of the president
00:20:32.880
and set it up in the west wing and what would you what would be the mandate for that special counsel
00:20:37.540
tom finton start running a grand jury in fort pierce
00:20:42.020
investigating the deprivation the the you know the deprivation of his civil rights the civil rights of
00:20:49.240
other americans under color of law the seeming conspiracy with the justice department and
00:20:55.200
uh the state actors in fulton county new york etc uh to target trump not because they violated law to
00:21:02.600
target party leaders in the republican party activists not because they violated the law but
00:21:07.960
retaliation for their first amendment protected rights that's a crime potentially and people need
00:21:14.040
to be at least ask questions about what went on i'm not even you know this is not a question of a
00:21:18.980
prosecution yesterday this is a question are they even asking anyone questions president trump's a
00:21:25.220
crime victim are they investigating their crimes against him i'm not seeing any indication that
00:21:30.500
there is and you know dan's been putting out some tweets talking about how there are things that are
00:21:34.800
happening behind the scenes he can't talk about just because it's not readily apparent doesn't mean
00:21:39.080
it's not happening well that may be true on certain law enforcement areas certainly on national security
00:21:44.180
but it's not true on these types of crimes you know if there was a serious criminal investigation
00:21:49.560
into what happened against trump we'd know all about it and the fact that we're not hearing anything
00:21:54.800
about it is a is a good indication as dc gets nothing's happening
00:21:58.860
tom fenton where do people go to follow this because i anticipate this is going to get a little
00:22:06.320
momentum after this morning's chat with you where do people go to follow up
00:22:10.040
they can go to judicial watch.org and of course we're all over rumble youtube twitter
00:22:18.800
you know all all i'm doing is falling and as i see it you know go ahead dan and cash and pam they
00:22:26.620
know me well enough to know it's like don't don't piss down my leg and tell me it's raining
00:22:31.580
you know and i've seen this party before i've been i've been doing this work for 2017
00:22:40.900
don't tell me to wait tom fenton it's yeah tom tom fenton is the people's during the during the
00:22:51.180
nuclear winter of the holder years we refer to tom fenton as the people's justice department if we
00:22:57.200
didn't have judicial watch and tom fenton we wouldn't even have been around how you held the
00:23:02.240
line during those those dark years so people know this during 45 if we weren't out there
00:23:09.400
yelling about what they were doing i've no doubt trump would have been removed from office in 45
00:23:14.340
and i think he would have been put a little flesh in the bones i love last four years if we weren't out
00:23:20.900
there pushing back give me that again give me that that's very important i agree with you 100%
00:23:28.140
i think trump would have been his first term in his first term he would have been impeached and
00:23:33.440
removed and prosecuted but for judicial watch blowing the whistle from the get-go similarly
00:23:39.280
during the last four years if we didn't start pushing back immediately on the justice department's
00:23:45.000
law fair because remember everyone was in a panic about january 6 and we saw it for what it was i'm
00:23:53.040
convinced trump would have been in jail and worse but for the work of judicial watch in large measure
00:23:58.080
um tom one more time uh give me your uh give me your um your uh where do people go to get you
00:24:07.500
uh go to judicial watch.org uh go to twitter at tom fenton uh of course at judicial watch we're all over
00:24:18.400
uh tom fantastic i'll be in touch after the show love you brother thanks steve
00:24:27.100
tom fenton an absolute hammer right now there's a uh president trump uh he's uh president trump's
00:24:35.500
got a true social can we get we're also going to cut directly to the white house and we will blow the
00:24:39.520
break as soon as the president comes out our own brian glenn is there but as soon as the president
00:24:44.100
comes out uh we we will jump there i want to read uh let's put it up yesterday china issued
00:24:50.060
retaliatory tariffs of 34 on top of their already record-setting tariffs non-monetary tariffs illegal
00:24:55.480
subsidization of companies and massive long-term currency manipulation despite my warning that any
00:25:01.420
country that retaliates against the u.s by issuing additional tariffs above and beyond their already
00:25:06.560
existing long-term tariff abuse of our nation will be immediately met with new and substantially higher
00:25:12.140
tariffs over and above these initially said therefore if china does not withdraw its 34
00:25:18.540
increase above their already long-term trading abuses by tomorrow april 8th 2025 the united states will
00:25:27.260
impose additional tariffs on china of 50 effective april 9th additionally all talks with china concerning
00:25:35.560
their requested meetings with us will be terminated negotiation with other countries which
00:25:40.860
so requests of means will begin taking place immediately thank you for your attention in this
00:25:45.780
matter um folks that's called economic warfare president trump just took a massive punch of she
00:25:54.240
right in the chops they tried to get cute last night and put up some additional tariffs and president
00:25:59.160
trump said hey you've abused this long enough uh you've abused it for currency manipulation non-tariff
00:26:04.840
barriers all of it uh and stealing our intellectual property i might add 600 billion dollars a year i think
00:26:10.260
we talk about a trade deficit of 25 trillion i think our deficit on stolen intellectual property
00:26:16.940
that came out of universities that you paid for it that came out of companies that you help finance
00:26:22.160
that came out of the government that you pay taxes for is at least 25 or 30 trillion dollars
00:26:28.020
that deficit on top of the trade deficit shows you how much the chinese communist party with their
00:26:34.600
partners here in the united states of america the lords of easy money the sociopathic overlords
00:26:39.480
that run uh wall street of course the globalist corporatist and the apartheid state of silicon valley
00:26:46.220
all of them combined are the partners of the chinese communist party and if there was ever a question
00:26:51.840
or a president trump was going to do well i think we've seen in the last four or five days what he's
00:26:55.820
going to do this is outright economic warfare he's told him flat out you don't you put tariffs on here
00:27:01.520
if you don't take him off by tomorrow i'm gonna add a 50 percent she's country economically cannot exist like that
00:27:08.980
that means essentially there'll be nothing shipped into the united states of america so the stakes
00:27:14.280
couldn't be higher i think the markets are going to kind of react to that short commercial break we got
00:27:19.960
the white house we're ready to go to see the president talk momentarily i think it's going to be in the east room
00:27:25.840

00:27:32.760

okay monumental news on the economic war uh with china a president's going to talk momentarily in
00:31:06.460
the east room of the white house we're going to go there but chris kobeck's here with breaking news
00:31:09.860
coming out of kansas uh chris i i'm kind of confused here you guys right now don't elect judges we just
00:31:16.520
had this huge donny brook up in uh up in wisconsin about this we've had this issue in north carolina it
00:31:21.840
most think it's going to go our way there are judges elected in kansas right now no they're not
00:31:28.060
since 1958 uh they have been selected using the so-called missouri model when the kansas uh legislature
00:31:35.560
proposed an amendment that should have been our first clue by the way it was a bad idea it was
00:31:38.600
called the missouri model uh but anyway the missouri model is where you have a commission
00:31:42.720
you have a commission of people select the choices and then the governor has to click pick from one of
00:31:49.860
three choices the special commission creates but we back in 1958 took it the missouri model and made
00:31:55.460
it even worse and we gave lawyers the control of the commission the majority of the commissioners
00:31:59.560
have to be lawyers picked by other lawyers so it's a system of the lawyers by the lawyers and for the
00:32:04.460
lawyers and as a result kansas a red state has one of the most liberal left-leaning activist supreme
00:32:09.880
courts in the country i've argued in front of multiple state supreme courts i'd say the only one
00:32:14.280
that's worse than ours is california and so we have a constitutional amendment the legislature just
00:32:19.700
passed in kansas uh two-thirds vote it goes now to the people for ratification uh to go to electing
00:32:25.560
judges which is what uh kansas did from statehood until 1958 and that is that's a political earthquake
00:32:32.160
in our state if if this is uh adopted by the people it will be such a positive transformation
00:32:36.900
um and it goes to the whole problem we see in the federal judiciary as well as judges who are not
00:32:43.220
accountable to anyone uh what what do our audience have to do is this something something for the
00:32:50.160
legislature are they trying is this something that needs to go to a vote uh the war and posse wants
00:32:54.580
to be all over this because we understand the judges are everything uh what are folks supposed to do
00:32:59.240
so it's already passed the legislature by the required two-thirds majority for a constitutional
00:33:04.420
amendment and now it goes to the people where it needs 50 plus one it'll be on the august 2026 ballot
00:33:10.280
you know definitely next summer war room could definitely help by getting people uh informed
00:33:15.760
about the need to vote yes on electing judges i mean steve let me put it this way just to frame this
00:33:20.900
issue in a bigger uh picture and that is you know in a constitutional republic we rely on judges to
00:33:27.420
protect our constitution and protect the rule of law but there's always the possibility that the judges
00:33:33.040
may not be doing so well and as the famous robert bork the late great judge put it in 1990 he said well
00:33:38.860
who will guard the guardians who will guard the judges when they go off the rails and his answer
00:33:43.880
back then was well we need to have judges we need to appoint judges who are originalists and who stick
00:33:48.680
to the text of the law well that has sometimes worked but sometimes judges say they're originalists
00:33:54.900
and say in front of congress they are one thing but they are actually something else in kansas uh we
00:34:00.360
have had judges legislating from the bench and so there's an even the best way to make judges
00:34:06.020
accountable is to make them face elections make them face another would-be judge every six years
00:34:11.920
who can point out the flaws in their decision making and so when you have judges who are not
00:34:16.940
accountable and this is true to a certain extent in the federal judiciary just like it is in kansas
00:34:21.380
you can see judges start legislating from the bench becoming activists rewriting the law by
00:34:26.320
reinterpreting it and uh one of the solutions i believe the best solution and one that's achievable
00:34:31.800
here in kansas is electing judges and by the way 22 states already elect judges but it's a very
00:34:37.320
interesting insight into the problem of a judiciary that that is not you know following the the text
00:34:42.920
of the constitution uh chris you're one of the smartest guys uh legally in the entire trump mega
00:34:49.920
movement uh just real quickly uh because they're saying today that they're going to go into court
00:34:54.000
conservatives are going to go into court and challenge president trump on his tariffs what's your
00:34:57.900
whole take on the use of the federal judiciary here to try to block president trump's uh efforts to to
00:35:04.860
effectuate the unitary executive theory sir well i mean obviously we have the courts they are there for
00:35:13.920
uh you know when there's a gray area when there's an unclear area of the law absolutely that's that's
00:35:19.100
what courts should do they should say well the law is written this way the words must be interpreted the
00:35:23.380
way they were understood by the the drafters of the constitution if you're a constitution that you're
00:35:27.280
interpreting interpreting or or a statute so going to the courts in and of itself isn't is not
00:35:32.940
necessarily wrong if they have a legitimate argument but going to the courts with a bogus
00:35:37.640
argument or with an obviously weak argument solely with the intention of getting a preliminary
00:35:42.560
injunction to gum up the works and put a hold on things until the higher courts can overturn that
00:35:47.800
preliminary injunction that is an abuse of the system uh real quickly chris you're the number one
00:35:54.180
guy to publicly intellectual about our borders trump's president trump's uh report card so far
00:36:01.380
how do you grade him oh i i absolutely give him an a i mean this has been amazing uh using all of
00:36:08.700
these resources uh everything from the u.s military to uh state national guards to uh giving ice taking
00:36:15.240
the handcuffs off ice letting them do their job in border patrol morale is at an all-time high uh i at least
00:36:21.120

addison mcdowell new to the congress but doing a great job thank you addison a real good baseball
00:39:22.560
player and a friend of mine roger williams great job
00:39:25.640
and another new congressman but he's been there a long time in a in a mental sense because he has
00:39:32.960
really done a job and he knows congress very well he was with me for seven years
00:39:38.560
brian jack brian congratulations brian and others we have a couple of senators here i just
00:39:46.760
don't particularly like him so i won't introduce
00:39:49.160
over the course of this amazing season the members of this team
00:39:55.460
i didn't think it was that big a deal actually washington over the course of this amazing season
00:40:12.120
the members of this team gave us some of the most incredible performances ever seen in the baseball
00:40:17.280
diamond in all of baseball history only six players have ever hit 40 home runs and stolen 40 bases in a
00:40:24.780
single season and an elite group known as the 40 40 club it's a 40 40 club and very few people make it
00:40:31.600
but unanimous national league mvp shohei ohtani
00:40:51.340
he's got a good future i'm telling you he shattered all of those records last year think of it all of
00:40:59.480
them and he did something even more because he became the first ever member of the 50 50 club so 40 40 is
00:41:07.120
hitting 54 home runs and 59 steals and accomplished an accomplishment unparalleled in 149 years of major
00:41:17.380
league baseball think of that that's just incredible even more incredibly shohei clinched that
00:41:23.400
achievement in what some have called the greatest game ever was it that good of a game
00:41:28.340
that's scary for a lot of people huh even more incredibly shohei clinched the achievement i mean
00:41:43.000
it really was and in a time that at an age that nobody ever thought was possible on september 19th
00:41:50.060
2024 he did the unthinkable by going six for six this is a pretty amazing i didn't realize it was that
00:41:56.440
good i saw that game six for six against the marlins with three homers 10 rbis and a pair of stolen bases
00:42:06.040
how many people have gone six for six just period right not very much maybe a dozen maybe a dozen
00:42:15.820
amazing as you know the dodges were down a lot of talent on the mound last season due to injury
00:42:22.720
the resilient group used 40 different pitchers the most ever by an eventual world series championship
00:42:29.040
team they had to go and get them i don't know how they got them and where they got them but they
00:42:33.520
got them because they won i know you especially missed the heart and soul of the pitching staff
00:42:43.500
these are the best looking people i've ever seen it's incredible but uh clayton has been
00:42:58.880
unbelievable and uh if you look uh you look at his records and you look at the stamina the endurance
00:43:05.900
that he's had and we're really happy to have him i'm glad to meet him i've watched him for a long time
00:43:10.460
he's a young guy yet but i've watched you are a young guy but i've watched you for a long time
00:43:14.800
so congratulations amazing all year the dodgers facedown adversity you entered the playoffs battered
00:43:21.560
and bruised but not broken when you ran out the healthy arms you ran out of really healthy they had
00:43:28.840
great arms but they ran out it's uh it's called sports it's called baseball in particular
00:43:33.960
and pitchers i guess you could say in really particular but the starting rotation during the
00:43:39.840
national league division series this scrappy dodges bullpen shut out the padres saved the season and
00:43:45.660
forced game five then key players battled back from mid-season injuries to help deliver the national
00:43:52.140
league pennant including superstars mookie betts oh is he good
00:43:56.340
that guy can play can't he i mean unbelievable uh you really uh mookie is i've been watching it i don't want to say i watched him when he was on boston
00:44:23.340
but i did i didn't think i didn't think that was a particularly good trade when they made it and
00:44:29.160
i happen to be right and max muncie i want to congratulate max
00:44:44.820
i'm used to shaking politicians and hitting their armor it's like jello and now it's like
00:44:51.540
now it's like steel all these guys but max that's great and uh also yoshi yamamoto yoshi
00:45:00.640
wow what great athletes and of course series mvp tommy edmund that was an mpvp series
00:45:19.640
that's pretty good that's a lot of talent you had to beat out there for the mvp but
00:45:35.280
they all had uh an incredible tommy was 407 with 11 rbis in six games that's not bad right
00:45:42.720
that's not bad when when it counted too next game the blockbuster world series against another iconic
00:45:51.540
team team known as the new york yankees i love the yankees i george was a great friend of mine
00:45:59.440
and if you want to spend work sit for nine innings with a game watching the yankees play with george
00:46:08.160
you were exhausted by the end of the game it was very it was actually hard work but we love george
00:46:13.600
and they're doing a good job and they're doing well this season and you're already nine and two
00:46:18.640
and so you're doing a good job maybe you see the same thing over again
00:46:22.240
in game one of the world series freddie freeman on a sprained ankle
00:46:26.800
he's a great player with a broken finger and a broken rib channel kirk gibson's legendary walk-off
00:46:33.980
home run in game one of the 1988 world series that was a very that was a game that pretty much
00:46:40.620
everybody remembers he could hardly swing the bat but he did he swung at one time it was a it was a shot
00:46:46.780
on the first pitch freddie saw in the bottom of the 10th he hit an unforgettable walk-off grand slam
00:46:53.100
home run the first in world series history it's amazing the dodges rode the momentum to win
00:46:59.100
two of their next three games placing them on the verge of baseball immortality in the dramatic
00:47:04.140
game five down five runs on the top of the fifth
00:47:07.940
that was a strange for those yankee fans but i'm not saying i was a yankee fan because i have
00:47:17.580
i love these people behind me but down five runs in the top of the fifth with two outs and the bases
00:47:23.940
loaded the dodges gave us one of the grittiest half-inning world series events showings that
00:47:31.140
anybody's ever seen mookie started the rally by beating out a routine ground ball to first which
00:47:38.340
he's fast as hell i don't know how the hell you can
00:47:42.740
having that speed is not a great thing i played baseball but it was sort of slow
00:47:46.740
slow i wasn't fast driving in the phenomenal kike hernandez where's kike
00:48:08.420
then freddie drove in two more runs and teoscar hernandez drove in another couple of runs
00:48:16.740
that's a group uh teoscar so you're doing well this season too a little bit yes that's what i
00:48:31.860
that's what i heard after a few dominant innings from blake training yeah where's blake
00:48:48.580
great job blake and the team was crowned the world series champion against a great team the yankees are
00:48:53.220
a great team and always a great franchise and i guess i don't know like 28 or something they've won
00:48:58.900
a lot probably maybe more than any team in history overall and uh you might be catching them pretty soon
00:49:06.500
if you keep going you've got a little ways to go i guess the scouting report at the start of the
00:49:11.780
series said that the dodgers could win by focusing on the fundamentals and that's exactly what they
00:49:17.940
did you showed america that it's not about individual glory it's about the team digging deep and
00:49:24.100
sprinting right through first base and you did that all the time i watch i watch some games i love
00:49:29.620
baseball i don't get to watch as much as i'd like but you always see a spirit on this team i think
00:49:34.420
a lot of that has to do with the ownership and the management frankly but you uh you see a spirit
00:49:40.180
on the dodgers that you don't see with a lot of teams a lot of teams i turn on i say oh let's forget
00:49:45.460
it when i turn on the dodgers i like to watch the team and now that i've gotten to meet these guys
00:49:50.660
personally uh i like it even more i'm going to like it even more and you're off to a great start
00:49:56.020
after seeing how successfully you've begun this season i can tell you that you can plan on being back
00:50:01.700

00:50:07.380

00:50:12.820

00:55:14.180
The president, Team Jersey, the world champion, Los Angeles Dodgers,
00:55:51.120
The president's going to lead them to the Oval Office right now.
00:55:53.780
I think the Dodgers are going to go on a very special trip to the Oval Office.
00:55:59.360
What we're going to do is toss to, we're going to carry this through, I think, all the way through to Charlie Kirk.
00:56:06.720
Now, the president's promised the Dodgers a special trip down to the, over to the Oval Office.
00:56:13.480
The Dodgers are in town to play Washington tonight.
00:56:22.680
Very special occasion for the president of the United States.
00:56:25.620
As you know, President Trump is a longtime Yankees fan.
00:56:31.280
He just had some great comments about his experiences in baseball.
00:56:34.080
President Trump played baseball at the New York Military Academy when he was in prep school.
00:56:38.460
President Trump also was a good friend of George Steinbrenner.
00:56:44.700
And when Steinbrenner bought the club and started turning around the Yankees after CBS had owned it,
00:56:49.300
the big rivalry was obviously between the Dodgers and the Yankees there in the 70s and the 80s,
00:56:56.400
when the Dodgers had those great teams and Steinbrenner was rebuilding it.
00:57:07.180
Once again, I want to thank Brian Glenn and the Real America's Voice team for being live there.
00:57:11.060
There goes the Dodgers right there as they funnel off the stage.
00:57:19.680
President Trump was reminiscing about George Steinbrenner.
00:57:23.460
Sitting next to George Steinbrenner for a nine-inny game up in the owner's box.
00:57:28.420
Because Steinbrenner would be calling down to the bullpen.
00:57:31.680
He'd be yelling at his coaches, his managers, and plus giving play-by-play commentary.
00:57:37.840
Okay, we're going to toss to Charlie Kirk in a moment.
00:57:49.720
The April 15th tax deadline is coming, and it's coming fast.
00:57:58.340
The IRS is more than aggressive and the more aggressive than ever.
00:58:04.460
Wage garnishments, bank levies, even property seizures are all on the table.
00:58:14.340
But going up against the IRS alone is a big-time mistake.
00:58:23.080
They have an edge, a preferred direct line to the IRS.
00:58:26.020
They know which agents to deal with and which ones to avoid.
00:58:30.640

00:58:48.240
They've already resolved over $1 billion in tax debt.
00:58:56.760
You need to move fast because April 15th is already here.
00:59:00.200
Remember, if you get that letter, don't put it in the drawer.
00:59:32.040
I'm really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements.
00:59:36.820

For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as
00:59:49.480
And because it is 100% grass-fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients
00:59:55.300
far better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general.
