In this episode, former Georgia Governor and current Georgia Governor Sarah Palin joins CNN's Jake Tapper to discuss human trafficking in the United States and her efforts to fight the issue. She is joined by former US Attorney General Chris Heacock, who is leading the fight against human trafficking, and former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.
00:01:27.000But when you have 14 to 17-year-old girls being bought and sold 5 to 10 times per day, this is an issue that I think we not just have a legal obligation, but a moral one as well.
00:03:00.000So when you go to the airport and the either TSA official or the airline official, you know, I have five daughters.
00:03:09.000And when they look at me and ask me a couple extra questions, or my daughter's a couple extra questions, you might think that they're harassing you.
00:03:29.000And if you see something that doesn't look right, go tell someone, I don't think this looks right, because they're masquerading as families.
00:03:37.000But they're really victimizing these kids.
00:03:59.000All of us together, collectively, all of you who support CPAC, we're the only group that ranks and rates every state legislator, every state senator, every state House member, every U.S. senator, every congressman, every governor.
00:04:25.000We're fighting all the same evil, satanic battles.
00:04:29.000But that's a good tool, and what we're using that tool for, including the money when you buy tickets and everything else, it's going towards these causes.
00:04:39.000One of them is hold these legislators accountable, and human trafficking is one of the ways we want to hold them accountable.
00:04:47.000Julio, the border, you spent a lot of time there.
00:05:21.000That's what always would surprise me, especially...
00:05:24.000When the border crisis was at its peak, because whenever Republicans would obviously criticize saying this is the wrong approach, they'd say, well, that's racist.
00:05:35.000I mean, you know, I always say they used to put me on CNN because I looked like Colonel Sanders or something.
00:05:40.000It's like when the black commentator knows that they call the white guy a racist, initially, five, six, seven years ago, the white guy's like, I've got to get out of this conversation.
00:05:52.000Today, that's all changed because people of color have had enough of everyone being called a racist because there's actual racism and they've ruined the term by making it a political term.
00:06:03.000Right, and so it would make me upset because obviously with the increase of illegal crossings and human trafficking, that became more profitable than drug smuggling because that became a cash cow.
00:06:21.000He said one of the most idiotic things, but it's because he was forced through by policy.
00:06:26.000It was at the very beginning of the Biden administration where he said, if any child comes to the border by themselves, we will take them in.
00:06:35.000And that was the worst thing to say because that was the dinner bell for these human smuggling organizations because not only is there a guarantee of a supply that they can provide for this demand, but it was...
00:06:53.000And then, of course, as the cartels got that influx of cash, the Mexicans became victimized even more from their activities.
00:07:03.000So by emboldening these very dangerous criminal organizations, not only is it a threat to us here in the United States, but it's also a threat to the everyday Mexicans.
00:07:12.000And so having a strong border and actually taking on these organizations...
00:07:18.000It's actually the best thing that we can do, not only for the United States, but also for our neighbors in Mexico.
00:07:23.000And I went to Oaxaca after the election to interview migrants to see what they were planning on doing now that Trump was going to be in office.
00:07:31.000And we were interviewing these group of Venezuelans.
00:07:35.000And as we were interviewing them, a small motorbike came up from behind.
00:08:01.000And I was very concerned because I didn't know who this guy was.
00:08:04.000I didn't know if he was affiliated with any local gang or the cartel.
00:08:07.000It turned out that he was actually concerned about us, outsiders, coming into this camp because he said...
00:08:15.000The reason why I'm doing this and trying to force you guys out is because there's always people coming into the camps and taking away the women and children.
00:08:24.000And so, as Sarah was saying, this is real.
00:08:27.000And it was the worst it's ever been with the destructive policies and the deliberate policies from the Biden-Harris administration.
00:08:35.000It is absolutely disgusting that this was not only allowed to happen, but it was made to happen.
00:08:42.000At the tune of over 500,000 children coming into our country unaccompanied.
00:08:57.000Over 300,000 were placed into homes we have no way of tracking, so we have no idea where they're at.
00:09:05.000Some of these places where they placed them, and I give Tara Rodas so much credit for this, because she's a hero whistleblower from HHS, right?
00:09:13.000Tara, for those of you who don't know, look her up.
00:09:16.000But some of these children were placed in strip clubs.
00:09:20.000Like, HHS literally turned over people who wrote down strip club addresses for these children and they can't find them.
00:09:28.000So now that we have Tom Homan in office, this is, yeah, as the boarders are.
00:09:36.000With President Trump, you know, this is a top priority for them to locate these children to ensure that if people are abusing them or if they're in the hands of abusers, that those people are prosecuted by the Department of Justice with Pam Bondi.
00:09:50.000So Chris, can I say something on this real fast?
00:09:52.000I want you to jump in, but like, there's a political side to this too, which is the Democrats cynically believed that they own the black vote.
00:10:03.000That they own the Hispanic vote, that they own the immigrant vote, that they own the gay vote.
00:10:10.000And so I believe they opened up the border not because they have compassion for kids.
00:10:14.000If they're giving them to owners of strip clubs and stuff, that shows that was crap.
00:10:18.000But the fact is, this was a cynical ploy to let millions of people, 15 million at a minimum, into this country to change it demographically.
00:10:27.000I think the irony is a lot of those people, when they realize who we are, And what America's all about, more and more of them are going to vote our way.
00:10:38.000And here's the other thing that I think this is important for conservatives to understand.
00:10:43.000You know, when I got into this eight years ago, we didn't have a lot of criminal jurisdiction, but now we have human trafficking and gangs and organized retail theft.
00:10:49.000And I was told by somebody on the other side, be careful dealing with some of these issues because, Matt, like you said, you're going to get criticized for who the criminals are.
00:10:57.000And I said, well, I don't care what the criminal looks like.
00:10:58.000I care about the act that they engage in.
00:11:01.000But if we're going to look at something, let's look at who the victims are.
00:11:04.000Who is most often vulnerable to human trafficking?
00:11:08.000Lower income, racially diverse immigrant populations.
00:11:12.000Who's most susceptible to violent crime and gangs?
00:11:15.000Racially diverse immigrant population.
00:11:17.000And when the woke DA won't prosecute property crimes and the CVS and the Walgreens and the Walmart has to close, which communities are most often Impacted.
00:12:02.000You would save the lives of millions of children if they will just engage us on the idea that if you don't secure your border, you're victimizing children.
00:12:22.000I always make sure whenever I'm talking about this issue, no one had heard of Tren de Aragua before 2021. It started in Venezuela when all the Venezuelans were starting to leave back in the 2010s.
00:12:36.000It then became a Latin American issue, and then when Biden opened the border...
00:12:40.000And then we had all these Venezuelans coming, Trende Aragua followed, and now we have cells all across the United States, and like, okay, it's great that we're really trying to make efforts to crack down on them, but it had to take cases like Lincoln Riley in order for people to actually take this seriously, and so many other victims as well, and that's why I have to laugh, because as we've all seen, there's been anti-ice protests by people who look like me.
00:13:05.000And they're saying, we have to stop deportations.
00:13:08.000You have to screw ICE and all this stuff.
00:13:10.000They're taking away hardened gang members right now.
00:15:36.000But this is what Matt's saying is absolutely essential.
00:15:40.000What we were up against the last four years was a weaponization of our bureaucracy in such a way that it was destroying the foundation of our nation.
00:15:49.000It was breaking and tearing our nation apart.
00:16:36.000Iran and others and they're seeing that border and they saw that border as the last four years as an open sieve to destroy our country and many times it comes across as a proxy war like they did with fentanyl coming from China.
00:16:51.000And so we have to be very aware and I'm just so grateful.
00:16:55.000So grateful to be living in this time, in this amazing time where I know, I know our country is on the right track.
00:17:09.000I know that sounds like a broad term, and I just want to say in conclusion, thanks for being here, of course, and keep up the good work, Chris.
00:17:23.000But I just want to say one thing in conclusion.
00:17:26.000When you see the videos throughout the next couple of years, when you read the false charges about how either Cash or Tom Homan or Kristi Noem or Donald Trump are filling the gap, are destroying the lives of these mostly Hispanic people who are here illegally as deportations occur.
00:17:49.000All the lies and slurs that will come out.
00:17:51.000Videos that will be true probably deepfakes, you know, instead of the ones when they said, well, Biden doesn't really have Alzheimer's.
00:18:01.000When you read all that, understand behind that what they're doing actually in securing the border is saving the lives of millions of kids who would have committed, you know, killed themselves with fentanyl, who would be victimized because...
00:20:08.000Ladies and gentlemen, blessed are the prosecuted fixing justice.
00:20:14.000Please welcome Attorney General of Pennsylvania, Dave Sunday, Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, Glenn Jacobs, CPAC's Nolan Center for Justice Senior Fellow, Savannah Chrisley, and your moderator, Director of CPAC's Prosecutors and Law Enforcement Advisory Council, Frank Russo.
00:22:22.000That's when I learned to fight and to uncover the injustices that happened with us.
00:22:27.000There were huge Fourth Amendment violations, and the government even went to accuse us of money laundering and terrorism just so that they could access certain financial documents.
00:22:37.000And when you have things like that happen, it taints the entire case.
00:22:43.000And I tell people all the time, if you want to convict them, convict them.
00:24:24.000Mayor Jacobs, can you talk a little bit about accountability and redemption?
00:24:28.000Because we still want to hold the actual criminals accountable.
00:24:32.000And then we want to ensure those who come home have the resources to stop that cycle of crime.
00:24:37.000I know you've been doing that work in Tennessee.
00:24:38.000As conservatives, we believe in public safety.
00:24:42.000We also believe in fiscal responsibility.
00:24:44.000On the left, what they've done with the criminal justice system has undermined both.
00:24:49.000They've used the criminal justice system for weaponization against political opponents while allowing violent criminals to literally go free.
00:24:56.000And it's been done at a huge cost, not only to public safety, but also fiscally.
00:25:01.000First of all, law enforcement's an extremely difficult job.
00:25:05.000We lost an officer that was killed in line of action a couple years ago.
00:25:09.000He was a young man named Tucker Blakely.
00:25:11.000So my hat's off to everyone in law enforcement as well as in the criminal justice system at large.
00:25:19.000As you say, when you think about the criminal justice system, obviously some folks have to go to jail.
00:25:29.000They've committed crimes that necessitate that they have to be removed from society.
00:25:33.000We also have to realize that 97% of these people will come back out of jail at some point, and what happens then?
00:25:41.000So in Tennessee, we're very invested in reentry programs that...
00:26:36.000I agree completely and I think the faith element is so vital to this process.
00:26:40.000These are people we are restoring to our communities to make sure that we stay safe.
00:26:44.000Well now we have a president that is bringing Jesus back to the center and I think when you have that at the center everything else falls into place.
00:26:57.000And the question I think a lot of people ask is, can you win on this message?
00:27:01.000We saw last fall, and I think one of the great successes of that cycle was the only Attorney General's race that flipped Republican.
00:27:08.000The only place in general that flipped it all was Dave Sunday in Pennsylvania, who ensured that we pushed out progressive prosecutors and brought in a conservative leader.
00:27:17.000Dave, can you talk about how this message...
00:27:20.000Resonated with voters and got rid of that progressive prosecutor movement that has made so many people, so many of us here, you're in Washington, D.C., or close to it, unsafe.
00:27:29.000I'll say that the best policies, I think, all come from your own personal life experience.
00:27:34.000And, you know, I was a little bit of a knucklehead when I was a kid, and so I joined the Navy right out of high school.
00:27:39.000I came home and I worked at UPS for eight years, all through college and all through law school.
00:27:45.000And when I worked at UPS, I mean, I'll tell you, I worked with people that worked so unbelievably hard, that fought every day to put food on their table and take care of their families.
00:27:55.000I then went on after law school and became a prosecutor, prosecuted, you know, everything from gang murders to domestic violence killings, drug traffickers.
00:28:05.000And what I realized all those years of prosecuting and putting people in jail, that the reality was if our community is not safe, nothing else matters.
00:28:14.000And the only way we could get to that place was by not only holding people accountable, but by embracing redemption for those that have already served their time.
00:28:24.000When people come out of prison, what I want to see is them work.
00:28:27.000I want to see people have career jobs.
00:28:30.000I want to see people take care of their families and pay their taxes and pay restitution.
00:28:35.000And more importantly, recognize that they have the power within themselves to change their lives.
00:28:44.000And when you apply that to the criminal justice system and work with the business community, the manufacturers associations, when you work with the faith-based community, with substance use counselors, mental health counselors, you get everybody together, then what happens is magic.
00:29:56.000Well, I think when you speak about mental health within the prison system, there was a hearing, and the former director, Colette Peters, which I say former, thank God, she was probably the worst thing to happen to the Bureau of Prisons, and I'm saying that as a woman.
00:30:11.000When she was sworn in, she gave me hope.
00:30:13.000I was like, finally, there's a woman in power.
00:30:17.000She testified, and over half the deaths in the system were due to suicide.
00:30:21.000Over half of the deaths in the system.
00:30:24.000So it shows that there is a mental health crisis, and we have to take care of that first.
00:30:29.000And I have, I like to tout myself as kind of the James O'Keefe of the prison system, because it has been my mission the past two years to absolutely deconstruct them.
00:30:39.000And the things that I have uncovered are extremely damning.
00:30:44.000I mean, the corruption that goes on within these facilities, these officials should be the ones in prison.
00:30:51.000Until we hold them accountable, we're going to continue that same rat race over and over and over again.
00:30:58.000We continue to allow I don't think there's a single cop in this room that's protecting us that wants to harass parishioners at their churches or that wants to go into communities and harass parents at school boards, and yet that's what we had for four years.
00:31:31.000And back to the mental health aspect, we've done a great disservice to law enforcement with essentially making them The mental health experts and the caretakers of folks who have severe mental illness.
00:31:45.000In Knox County, we estimate that about 35% of our daily census at our jail suffers from mental illness.
00:31:51.000And the reason is there's no place else for these folks.
00:31:53.000So you have law enforcement people who are trained to be cops, or in this case, corrections officers, and they're forced to be mental health professionals, which they're not.
00:32:10.000But basically, folks that qualify, that have mental illness, stand in front of a judge, but instead of going to jail, the judge oversees their sentence, and they have to go to counseling, they have to be on their meds, and all those sort of things.
00:32:25.000But yes, that frees up police resources because then they're no longer acting as mental health professionals.
00:32:31.000They can do the job that they're trained to do, and it makes things safer for everybody.
00:32:48.000With the First Step Act, my biggest issue, I am a huge advocate for the First Step Act, but what the last administration failed to do was implement the First Step Act.
00:32:57.000And because they failed to implement it, you have the Bureau of Prisons that's asking for more money.
00:33:02.000Well, instead of asking for more money, why don't you actually implement the First Step Act, the Second Chance Act, and it could reduce, they are wasting upwards of a billion dollars.
00:33:12.000Because they're not concerned with public safety or fiscal responsibility.
00:33:16.000They just want to make sure that bureaucrats get more money, more power.
00:33:21.000And I think, too, taking the Bureau...
00:33:23.000I have heard, and let's hope this is right, but taking the Bureau of Prisons away from the DOJ and giving it to DHS is going to be the most brilliant move, in my opinion, because I do not believe the DOJ should be able to...
00:33:41.000Charge you, sentence you, and house you too.
00:33:44.000We spent four years with the Biden administration acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
00:33:49.000And in that pace, I think what we don't talk enough about is what did that actually do to law enforcement.
00:33:54.000In my hometown of Roswell, Georgia, we lost an officer two weeks ago.
00:34:06.000And that solution was delivered by all of you in November.
00:34:09.000And I'm excited, Dave, for you to talk a little about how we're going to keep communities safe now that you have a federal government that supports law enforcement, supports the rule of law, and thanks to Kash Patel, Pam Bondi, Kristi Noem, and others, is going to actually start solving these problems.
00:34:29.000I mean, I ran on if our communities aren't safe, nothing else matters.
00:34:32.000And it's something that I believe in my heart.
00:34:35.000I mean, when you look at the challenges facing us right now, if you think about, I mean, millions of times a day, someone online is trying to get to our children every single day, all day long.
00:34:45.000We have an aging population in America.
00:34:47.000And every single day, millions of times a day, people are trying to steal our seniors.
00:34:54.000You know, the money that they saved up throughout the course of their life.
00:34:56.000And I don't care if it's one dollar or a billion dollars.
00:35:12.000And so what I look forward to doing is collaborating with all of our partners, from local law enforcement to state law enforcement to federal law enforcement.
00:35:21.000And really bring everyone together with a common goal, which is to make our community safer.
00:35:26.000That's to get fentanyl off of our streets.
00:35:29.000I mean, that's to go after the organized crime, these gangs that are shooting up our cities, and hold them accountable and put them in prison.
00:35:39.000The data shows that when you get the right people in prison, the right people, okay, Crime goes down astronomically.
00:35:48.000And so you have to use precision policing, targeted prosecutions, and you have to do it in a manner that's fair and that's safe and that's constitutional.
00:35:57.000And at the end of the day, that's how we'll make our community safer.
00:36:04.000Mayor, you have now the keys to solving a lot of these problems within your own city.
00:36:10.000You've actually seen the successes and talked about it.
00:36:13.000What should people here know and take back to their communities?
00:36:16.000What should this audience be telling their local officials when they go to town halls?
00:36:20.000And yes, that's me asking you to take a challenge.
00:37:03.000All the horrible things that happened under the Biden administration, and there's a lot of them, right?
00:37:08.000I think that was the worst thing, because a politicized, weaponized justice system, that is literally the definition of a banana republic, and we were this close to slipping into that.
00:37:22.000Savannah, I'll ask a similar question.
00:37:24.000What can people know about your story?
00:37:25.000How can they make a difference and impact, and how can we get your family out of this nightmare and back to the rule of law in our society?
00:37:31.000Yeah, for me, I believed bad people go to prison.
00:37:35.000That's just what I think as a kid is ingrained in you.
00:37:47.000Put us on this earth to love people and love people well.
00:37:50.000And let's not forget about those men and women that are incarcerated who maybe need an additional hand, who need a little help, who need people to believe in them, because right now we have a very hopeless system and there's nothing more dangerous than a hopeless person.
00:38:06.000And right now, with all the issues that we're working on and restoring hope within these individuals, I think Alice Marie Johnson is a prime example of what happens when someone...
00:39:14.000So to start with, we have to have the courage to fight tough battles.
00:39:19.000And what I mean by that is, a lot of the things we're talking about up here, severe behavioral health problems, the opioid epidemic, issues with regard to trauma on children, these aren't things that we can solve in a day.
00:39:33.000These are things that will take time and courage.
00:39:37.000To be able to work through them, they're greater than the political cycle.
00:39:40.000And when we come together as a community and we work on this, and these are all conservative values, and we come together and we do this, our community will begin to get better.
00:39:50.000You have to have the courage to do it.
00:39:52.000The second thing is we have to support police.
00:39:54.000You said something earlier that was so fantastic.
00:39:57.000We expect our police to be domestic violence counselors, mental health counselors, substance abuse counselors.
00:40:05.000We expect police to have the answer to every single problem within a split second, oftentimes 10 to 15 times a day.
00:40:12.000And we have to get them the support so that they can do their core function of patrolling, keeping communities safe, and investigating very serious crimes, and putting the bad guys in jail.
00:42:03.000I think Moms for America is exactly on track and is doing the right thing for the future of our country and our children.
00:42:10.000Like, Moms for America is going at the heart of the issue.
00:42:14.000I want to go on the record and say, I'm for moms, I'm for America, and I'm especially for Moms for America.
00:42:21.000But I am honored to join Moms for America today as we speak out against the horrific mandates.
00:42:27.000With a national network of over a half a million mothers, Moms for America is one of the fastest growing movements of women in the country.
00:42:36.000The most dangerous place in all of nature is between a mama bear and her baby cub.
00:42:45.000No matter what, no matter where, and no matter how difficult the obstacles are that are facing us and our families, we will not give up and we will not give in.
00:44:13.000It's a community of creators building a new future together.
00:44:17.000Your freedom starts when you press play.
00:44:22.000The conservative movement has come a long way.
00:44:26.000Back in the 1990s, there were so few college women who were interested in conservative ideas that we all fit in a very small boardroom table.
00:47:32.000President Trump oftentimes behind the scenes will say, you are so lucky I took you on this journey.
00:47:40.000And Team Trump that is out there will know exactly what I'm saying, whether it's subpoenas, grand jury testimonies, indictments, out on the campaign trail, big victories.
00:47:53.000Out on the golf course, state dinners, championship games, World Series, Super Bowl, on the plane, in the Oval Office, good times and bad times, no matter what the news cycle is out there, he would sit and say, you are so lucky I took you on this journey.
00:48:10.000It's been the journey of a lifetime for me.
00:48:12.000I've been with President Trump for 32 years.
00:48:21.000I started caddying for him back when I was 15 years old.
00:48:50.000And here we are 32 years later, and Mr. President, if you're watching, this has been one hell of a journey, the greatest journey of my lifetime.
00:49:21.000Literally, the campaign run out of the courthouse.
00:49:24.000Not only the courthouse, but we would be running around the country, barnstorming every country, every state, rather, seeing all of you out there campaigning.
00:49:34.000So much fake news out there, all of the leaks, all the defamation, all the BS that went on out there.
00:49:41.000He went out there, the indictments, everything, the lawfare.
00:49:45.000He went out there, and as he raised his hand in Butler, Pennsylvania, During that assassination attempt and raised that fist and said, fight, fight, fight.
00:49:56.000That's exactly what he does behind the scenes every day.
00:49:59.000He could be out at Mar-a-Lago every day golfing in Palm Beach, Florida, California, New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia.
00:50:06.000but he'd rather choose to be out there and fight for putting America first and making America great again.
00:50:12.000His behind-the-scenes moments in the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, in the hospital, just to show you his mindset, the guy just got shot in the damn head.
00:50:28.000Somebody attempted to assassinate him.
00:50:30.000He's in the hospital, and I show him that iconic picture of him raising his fist.
00:51:27.000Truly, I call him like America's greatest host because he's a great man and everybody in the administration, the cabinet, and the people that spend those moments with him behind the scenes will understand and they get what I'm saying.
00:51:45.000He's just a happy-go-lucky guy, and the guy works his ass off from 5 in the morning till midnight.
00:51:50.000The guy barely sleeps, and trust me, I know from the phone calls and the messaging and things that we would put out on social media and platforms.
00:51:58.000But to be in the hospital with everything shot in the head, and he's worried about everybody else.
00:53:00.000And sure enough, you all saw in those viral videos and on the news, he was at McDonald's having a good time with that French friar and the people driving through.
00:53:10.000I'll never forget that moment when we pulled in with thousands of people lining the streets.
00:53:14.000That was the night he also went to the Pittsburgh Steelers game.
00:53:19.000But the guy couldn't wait to get to McDonald's, and he knew that it was a big moment for us.
00:53:25.000And it was pretty damn awesome, was it not?
00:55:53.000There's so many times that the president is just so grateful for the support he sees out there on social media.
00:56:00.000I mean, we won the election in an electoral landslide, swept all seven swing states.
00:56:07.000And we not only have the 45th president and the 47th president of the United States, we've got a great president who's going to put all of you first.
00:56:17.000He's going to fight, fight, fight, and he's going to continue.
00:56:21.000And his legacy will go down as one of the greatest presidents of all time.
00:56:26.000And together, everybody in this room, with your support, we're going to make America great again.
00:56:36.000God bless each and every one of you and thank you for having me.
00:57:34.000Greetings from the great state of Wyoming.
00:57:38.000Home of an abundance of affordable and reliable energy, wildlife galore, wide open spaces, gorgeous rivers and streams, magnificent mountains, beautiful blue skies, and not one Liz Cheney anywhere to be found.
00:58:01.000In 2024, Wyoming provided President Trump with his largest margin of victory of any state in the nation, and we are so proud of the job that he is doing.
00:58:13.000We are ecstatic that he is exposing and eradicating the massive government waste, fraud, and abuse that we have known for decades has been happening, and yet no one before would do anything about it.
00:58:26.000We are overjoyed that he has tasked Elon Musk and his team with overseeing Doge.
00:58:31.000Using their skills to implement what may be the closest thing to zero-based budgeting that we will ever see in the federal government.
00:58:41.000We are thrilled that he recognizes that we are a government of, by, and for the people, and that its primary purpose is to protect the homeland and secure our God-given rights and freedoms.
00:58:56.000It is quite apparent that the Democrats long ago stopped caring about the concerns of working-class people.
00:59:03.000The truck drivers, farmers, airline employees, miners, custodians, and construction workers, among others.
00:59:10.000And they paid for such neglect by being shellacked in the last election.
00:59:16.000But far be it for them to undertake a legitimate self-assessment of their policies and ideas, they are instead engaging in kabuki theater while standing in front of government agencies, screaming their opposition to everything good and just generally making fools of themselves.
00:59:33.000The agencies that they have chosen for their performance art are telling, are they not?
00:59:39.000The Department of Education, a $270 billion woke monstrosity, That has presided over the steady and unrelenting decline of public education.
00:59:50.000And USAID, a $50 billion anti-American purveyor of ideology so toxic that even the bureaucrats who worked there knew they had to hide their programs so that they could continue to fund such things as transgender comic books in Peru, so-called sex change operations in Guatemala, and anti-Israeli rappers.
01:00:13.000By now, everyone has heard about the crazy things USAID and other bloated and unnecessary bureaucracies have spent our money on, and we are rightly infuriated.
01:00:24.000But there is more to this story than bureaucrats and leftists attempting to out-crazy each other, and it is critical that we understand the full picture, in part to ensure accountability, but to also understand how these actions, this overwhelming misdirection of assets, this radical anti-humanist agenda, has weakened us here at home and allowed our so-called political leaders to ignore their primary responsibility to our citizens.
01:00:51.000In short, this obsession with pushing the woke agenda has real-world consequences and has caused real-life suffering.
01:00:58.000The way that I often describe it is that a government that does things that it should not be doing becomes incapable of doing those things that it should.
01:01:06.000What we can describe as the social and economic reality of opportunity costs.
01:01:12.000And it is this phenomenon that I, as the chairwoman of the House Anti-Woke Caucus, want to make sure people understand.
01:01:22.000We are not just dealing with stupid comic books and radical anti-American leftist policies.
01:01:28.000We are also dealing with an obsession that has become so all-consuming to those on the other side that the toll in human suffering and property destruction cannot be ignored.
01:01:39.000As a devastating example, let's look at the recent California wildfires.
01:01:44.000The cause and magnitude of those fires cannot be written off as an act of nature because that is not what happened.
01:01:51.000Rather, a substantial number of fires in California are started by arsonists and homeless encampments, and that appears to be the case in terms of this recent conflagration.
01:02:01.000Even setting aside the cause of the fires, however, this catastrophe was years in the making, with resource management, over-regulation, and failed water policies all finding their roots in a fixation on climate change and global warming.
01:02:18.000With Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass deciding that the threat of a two-degree change in temperatures 100 years from now warrants whatever suffering we may come about today.
01:02:30.000Let's start with the radical environmentalist decisions for the last several decades to fight every effort to undertake proper, effective, and safe forest and range management practices and to implement better fire protection policies.
01:02:44.000In fact, one such organization fought to block a wildfire prevention project near the Pacific Palisades to protect a shrub called the Broughton's milk vetch.
01:02:54.000We can thank this group for their efforts to protect this shrub.
01:02:58.000Although such protections were clearly only transitory since they also burned in the November fires.
01:03:05.000But this is not an isolated situation, and we have watched it play out year after year in Western states, as the so-called experts and environmentalists would rather our forests, our prairies, and our homes burn to the ground than allow us to implement common sense and much-needed treatment techniques to prevent these catastrophes from happening in the first place.
01:03:26.000Did you know that in 2020, Gavin Newsom vetoed a fire mitigation bill that had been passed by both houses of the Democrat-controlled California legislature?
01:03:37.000That bill provided funding for vegetation management to maintain defensible space around structures, reduce flammable material, reduce fire risk, and harden evacuation routes.
01:03:48.000In his veto message, Governor Newsom exposed his moral corruption by stating that any efforts to fireproof California could not take precedence over his plan to replace single-family homes with affordable housing and multifamily units.
01:04:04.000I could spend hours regaling you with the many ways in which radical environmentalism and the fear-mongering surrounding our ever-changing and healthy climate has destroyed our natural and human environment, but I think you get the gist.
01:04:18.000In short, in the name of climate change, in the name of our environment, in an effort to burnish their elitist bona fides, these people have largely destroyed the very things that they claim to hold dear, with their policies and actions being responsible for spewing more carbon and pollutants into the atmosphere than our collective humanity could in hundreds of years.
01:04:41.000And that is why we must expose them for the frauds that they are.
01:04:46.000Charlatans who prove time and time again that they know nothing about the environment, climate, resource management, how to build strong, vibrant, and resilient communities, or human nature.
01:04:57.000But like so many dictators before them, believe that they are the experts who are entitled to micromanage our lives, mandate and restrict our mode of travel, control our food supply, and shove us into 15-minute cities and multifamily homes.
01:05:14.000Now, it is often easy to make fun of people like Gavin Newsom, Karen Bass, Kamala Harris, Al Gore, John Kerry, and others.
01:05:21.000But these people have caused and will continue to cause real human suffering unless we stop them.
01:05:27.000And one tool that we have is to expose the true cost of their woke ideology.
01:05:33.000But it isn't just failed environmental policies that are to blame.
01:05:37.000We must also call out the entire DEI industry as being one of the many culprits resulting in the death and destruction that we have suffered.
01:05:49.000First, as I mentioned earlier, California's wildfire problem is largely man-made.
01:05:54.000With the homeless population and arsonists being responsible for well over 50% of all of the fires.
01:06:00.000All in the name of being equitable and inclusive, you see, personal and community responsibility are relics of the past when it comes to modern-day California.
01:06:09.000And nothing epitomizes that more than in allowing the homeless to literally run your cities into the ground, and when they so choose, to burn them down.
01:06:19.000Second, DEI is not only insidious because of what it means in practice, but in the fact that it allows politicians and bureaucrats to divert our precious resources from where they should be focused to pet projects that have nothing to do with carrying out the functions of government.
01:06:35.000The stories from California are legion of millions of dollars being spent on DEI workshops and training of hiring based on race, sex, sexual orientation, and intersectionality, rather than on whether the individual could physically do the job.
01:06:52.000Empty reservoirs, broken down fire trucks, air-sucking fire hydrants, no evacuation routes, and not enough firefighters.
01:07:02.000DEI is a disastrous concept in theory and wholly destructive in practice.
01:07:07.000It undermines faith in our institutions and allows unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats to redirect hundreds of billions of dollars into programs that we don't want, don't need, and that ultimately destroy everything that we hold dear.
01:07:21.000Fortunately, we now have a political leader in President Trump who understands how destructive these environmental policies have been to our communities and how insidious DEI policies are to our physical, mental, and financial well-being.
01:07:39.000Thank God, in other words, that we have finally awakened from this woke nightmare and it is a new day in America.
01:07:49.000God bless CPAC, God bless President Trump.
01:07:56.000God bless our warriors who are fighting on behalf of all of us.
01:11:41.000Do you think the MKUltra project ever actually ended?
01:11:44.000The Central Intelligence Agency is actively involved in mind manipulation.
01:11:48.000We all answer to one God and one Savior.
01:11:53.000And he's there to change your life for the better.
01:11:58.000Ladies and gentlemen, up next, an interview with Governor of Arkansas, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, hosted by CPAC Senior Fellow, Mercedes Schlapp.
01:12:43.000Oh my gosh, I'm so excited to have Sarah with us.
01:12:45.000We are in countdown mode right now, because guess who's coming, who's going to close out CPAC? I mean, just a slightly well-known individual, maybe the most popular human on the face of the planet right now.
01:13:48.000Okay, so you were at the National Governors Association dinner, and President Trump had this interesting exchange with the governor from Maine.
01:14:33.000I'm so tired of hearing the left say that they care about women when they can't even tell you what a woman is.
01:14:40.000And we finally have a president who will stand up for women and fight back.
01:14:46.000And I think that it's a great thing to see.
01:14:51.000Donald Trump being the one to sign executive orders that defend and define what a man and what a woman are, which it's sad that we have to do that, but also as a mom of a daughter that is a 12-year-old volleyball player, that we have somebody that's saying, no, we're not going to let men play girls' sports.
01:15:13.000And Donald Trump is doing that, and I think he's right to call people out who are on the wrong side.
01:15:19.000So, we have a rating system that we rate at CPAC, all the state legislatures, all the governors, all the federal legislators as well.
01:15:29.000Governor Sanders has ranked the top conservative governor in America.
01:17:28.000I mean, walk us through why your state...
01:17:30.000You know, we always talk about these federal elections, and obviously having President Trump in office is such a critical win.
01:17:38.000But these states are just as critical as well, because we meet people from California who talk about how horrific it is to live under Democrat oppression.
01:17:50.000And here we have a perfect example of what you're doing in Arkansas to be that blueprint for other states.
01:17:56.000What's your advice to other governors, especially Republican governors, that are trying to do the same?
01:18:03.000And we talk about conservative principles, but these are American principles of being pro-family, pro-economic prosperity, pro-safety.
01:18:12.000Well, one of the big differences now is we actually have a partner in the White House instead of somebody we have to fight every single day.
01:18:22.000He's the new head of the EPA. I said, I'm just glad we have somebody there that we don't have to sue every single week.
01:18:29.000And we can actually work with to get things done.
01:18:32.000You know, over the last several years, Republican governors are the ones who have held the line.
01:18:37.000While Washington was a completely broken, dysfunctional mess, Republican governors are the ones who stepped up and worked on securing the border.
01:18:46.000We sent Arkansas Guard to the border two separate occasions over the last couple of years because Joe Biden wouldn't get the job done.
01:18:54.000Now we have a partner in Donald Trump who's not going to just be a partner, but he's going to be a leader.
01:18:59.000He's going to be the number one fighter pushing back on some of the crazy wokeness that we have seen the left try to impose on our families, on our schools, on our businesses.
01:19:10.000And Republican governors are going to be right there with them.
01:19:12.000We're going to make sure that our schools do not become indoctrination factories for the left.
01:19:18.000We're going to make sure that you can run your business the way that you want to, and that you can raise your kids the way that you want to, as it was intended in this country.
01:19:27.000And I'm proud of the work we've been able to do.
01:19:30.000Arkansas is now the number one state in the country that people are moving to.
01:19:50.000We are booming on all fronts, and it's because we're implementing good conservative policy that lets you live your life without constant government intrusion.
01:20:01.000And that's something we're proud of and something we're going to continue to do in our home state.
01:20:06.000Gosh, wouldn't she make a great vice presidential pick in 2028?
01:20:26.000I really want you to talk about this problem, this crisis you discovered in your state.
01:20:32.000How you're solving it, because it's not only impacting states like Arkansas, but other states as well in the South.
01:20:39.000Walk us through what you're doing there.
01:20:40.000You know, one of the things that I think is so important for the pro-life community is that we don't just focus on the baby when they're in the womb, but it's what does that look like after, and making sure that we are actually fighting for kids.
01:20:55.000Every single day, and that's something that's really important in our state.
01:20:59.000We had about 10% of moms in Arkansas that were never seeing a doctor until they were in labor.
01:21:07.000That's unacceptable, especially when they have that access to care.
01:21:10.000They just weren't taking advantage of it.
01:21:12.000We know that healthy moms make healthy babies, so we've invested heavily in making sure that those women get the care that they not only need and deserve, but they know that their life And their child's life has value.
01:21:26.000And it's something that we want to protect at every single stage.
01:21:29.000and so we're investing heavily in the maternal health problem in Arkansas and something that we're going to expect to see a dramatic impact and dramatic results just in a short amount of time.
01:21:40.000So we've seen President Trump right now where he's been in office for 32 days.
01:21:49.000It feels like it's been like 10 years that he's been in office.
01:21:51.000It's so remarkable to watch the amount of work he's been able to accomplish.
01:21:56.000Now, as us, the Trump 45ers, is that what we are?
01:22:45.000It was the most intense, most, I think, polarizing, difficult time that we've seen probably in political history in a very long time during Trump's first administration.
01:24:12.000I heard the moniker that we wish that government could move at the speed of business.
01:24:17.000Well, he's redefining that all over again.
01:24:19.000There's the speed of government, there's the speed of business, and now there's the speed of Trump, which is unlike anything I've ever seen.
01:24:27.000And he's doing so much so fast, they don't even know how or where to attack him this time.
01:24:35.000And so I hope that he can keep up this pace.
01:24:39.000I've never seen anybody with the level of energy that he has.
01:24:43.000As you know well, it was not surprising that we could get a phone call.
01:24:48.000From the president at midnight, 1 a.m., asking us to do a laundry list of things and then calling us back a couple of hours later at 4 or 5 in the morning and saying, did you get all that done?
01:25:26.000Anyone else that would have gone through the level of intense criticism and the attacks, two assassination attempts on his life would have given up.
01:25:43.000But this is a president who I think that only emboldens him more.
01:25:47.000The more they come after him, the stronger and tougher he gets, and the more he comes back ready to deliver for the American people.
01:25:57.000And I love getting to see him with this mandate and with this level of excitement for his presidency, because he deserved it the first time and he didn't get it.
01:26:08.000And now he's getting it, and he's winning, and because he is, America's winning.
01:26:14.000So I love always getting the insider information.
01:26:18.000So there would be times, this is so funny, we'd literally get, our first meeting was like 7 o'clock in the morning.
01:26:39.000I mean, it was so really learning on the job, too.
01:26:44.000So now that you've transitioned from being the president's spokesperson, the press secretary at the White House, into being the governor of the state...
01:26:59.000You know, it's really different when you're the one sitting in the chair and it's your name on the paper to sign legislation or an executive order.
01:27:09.000There's a different weight and responsibility that comes with that.
01:27:13.000But I could not be more thankful for the experience that I had in the White House because I learned so much from the president.
01:29:09.000And so for us to identify that level of savings already that we're implementing.
01:29:14.000And some of it was as basic as getting rid of...
01:29:18.000Old phone and fax lines that haven't been in use in years.
01:29:22.000We will now save the state of Arkansas a million dollars a year, just eliminating things like that.
01:29:29.000If we can do that on an Arkansas small state level, I can't imagine what they're going to continue to be able to uncover through DOGE and the amount of savings and waste, fraud, and abuse they're going to be able to get rid of.
01:30:33.000While that is a big role and one I love and I'm proud and honored to have, there's no more important and bigger tasks that I have than being a mom.
01:30:41.000And so I take that really serious and trying to do the best I can to deliver for my kids.
01:30:48.000So my call to action to you all is that you pray for Governor Sanders and her family because it's really hard to...
01:30:57.000Raise a family, be in the public eye, and do the incredible work that you do.
01:31:01.000And what is your call to action to our CPAC family?
01:31:04.000To keep fighting without you showing up and cheering and championing not just the people that are running for office, but more importantly, what they stand for.
01:31:16.000Find people who love this country as much as you do.
01:31:20.000Support them with everything you can and keep showing up because it makes a difference.
01:31:25.000Because there are moments where you're running for office or you're in office and you think you're all by yourself and nobody is there.
01:31:33.000If you see a room of people like this who love America as much as you do, it is a great reminder to keep fighting and not to let the naysayers get you down.
01:33:06.000Moms for America is a national movement of moms reclaiming our culture for truth, family, freedom, and the Constitution.
01:33:15.000I think Moms for America is exactly on track and is doing the right thing for the future of our country and our children.
01:33:22.000Like, Moms for America is going at the heart of the issue.
01:33:27.000I want to go on the record and say, I'm for moms, I'm for America, and I'm especially for Moms for America.
01:33:34.000But I am honored to join Moms for America today as we speak out against the horrific mandates.
01:33:39.000With a national network of over a half a million mothers, Moms for America is one of the fastest growing movements of women in the country.
01:33:49.000The most dangerous place in all of nature is between a mama bear and her baby cub.
01:33:55.000We are the change, no matter what, no matter where.
01:34:01.000And no matter how difficult the obstacles are that are facing us and our families, we will not give up and we will not give in.
01:37:13.000Just a month ago, I said in the Davos forum that I believe we are going to be through a point of inflection in our history.
01:37:29.000La historia transcurre en fases o etapas, momentos en donde el espíritu de la idea se materializa en una persona o en un grupo de personas, a veces cercana, a veces con kilómetros de distancia entre ellos, pero con un hilo conductor invisible que si se pudiera observar...
01:37:47.000I presume it would be very similar to the images we observe from neural networks of the human brain.
01:37:54.000Today we are precisely in one of those moments in which the history, with H mayúscula, is changing its course.
01:38:03.000We are seeing real time the destiny of the world to be bifurcated towards a new way, different from the place where the elites were taking us and the political establishment of our countries.
01:38:16.000In the same way that in the 1930s, the flame of freedom was being apagated and that began a new change in the world's the flame of freedom was being apagated and that began a Finally, we can say that the era of the omnipresent state has ended.
01:38:47.000Today we are witnesses of a moment in which the long march of the state on the individual is reaching its end.
01:38:54.000Me refiero, por supuesto, al colapso del modelo colectivista y el amanecer de una nueva era de libertad.
01:39:00.000We prepared for this moment and I believe that genuinely we are giving a crucial battle for the human future.
01:39:08.000But as I always say, only can we work effectively if the diagnosis is correct.
01:39:23.000We have to understand where we are and what we are facing to be able to get to where we want.
01:39:33.000Throughout the world, Western societies face a same problem and a same enemy.
01:39:39.000A class that extraes more resources to the citizens through impuestos, in order to implement a state-wide expansion model.
01:39:49.000A class that pretends to regulate every aspect of the people's lives, making honor to one of the maximum fascism of Benito Mussolini, "Dentro del Estado todo, fuera del Estado nada "Dentro del Estado todo, fuera del Estado nada y nada contra el Estado".
01:40:10.000We have called this political class "Partido of the Estado", a extended caste whose members, beyond differences superficially, share the fundamental idea of the advance of the Estado on society.
01:40:25.000They are all those who, by economic interest, or ideological conviction, or even a ingenious idealism, work for the interests of the Estado.
01:40:39.000The Berliner Fund, Institutions Prevendoration,ということs permanent state funders, and have been elected and relativ mathematically ذ котор, saying that organisations aальное principle of the shenanigans that work broken by political movements, the academic institutions that apply saying that organisations aальное principle of the shenanigans that work broken by political movements, the academic institutions that apply the theory of expansion, the national networks 다� Мос delight and all those in any other way that
01:41:07.000And of course, this includes the traditional political parties.
01:41:19.000That, no matter their color, coincide in the fundamental tesis that more estados are always better.
01:41:25.000In Argentina, for example, we had a political system composed by 50 shadows of socialism.
01:41:31.000In the United States there was the illusion of bipartidism, of a Democrat Party that marked the agenda, and a Republican Party that was unable to face it until the arrival of President Donald Trump.
01:42:10.000Curiosamente, el mío lo van a tener que esperar hasta el final. .
01:42:17.000Curiosamente, el presidente Trump es un outsider, igual que yo.
01:42:21.000Porque la tarea que tenemos por delante, el desafío que tenemos por delante, no es para políticos tradicionales que han vivido toda su vida del sistema.
01:42:30.000Es para gente que no le debe nada a nadie, que no está comprometida por los vicios del sistema.
01:42:35.000and who knows that it is more important change than power by power itself.
01:42:39.000In the political establishment of our two nations, there was a more or less explicit mentality that the progress of the State is equal to the progress of democracy.
01:43:03.000That each conquest of the state was an act of social justice against the supposed injustices of freedom.
01:43:09.000That the role of the state was to bring us to a egalitarian utopia through the systematic creation of new rights that obviously should be financed by the taxpayers of taxes.
01:43:23.000It's precisely in the center of this scheme that the politicians are, the main beneficiaries of this limited expansion model.
01:43:32.000Those who make of others live for the strength of a lifestyle.
01:43:36.000Depositarios of power and privileges that will be the envy of any monarch of history.
01:43:40.000No matter the televisive fights or the supposed differences partidally, they all work for the same God, the siniestry, and their manifestation on the earth, the Leviathan of which Hobbes spoke.
01:43:53.000That's why, saving some particularities of each nation, all of us who are here have a same mission: quitar el poder al partido del Estado y devolvérselo a la sociedad.
01:44:32.000Es decir, como decía Albert Nock, que describió en su libro "En nuestro enemigo el Estado", que el poder social fue progresivamente arrebatado y trasladado al Estado por la fuerza.
01:44:45.000Our goal is to make the opposite way: increase the power of the citizen and take the power of the state.
01:45:49.000Of course, it can't be done by managing the state as it exists or just administrating correctly the resources that it has.
01:45:58.000The only rational way is to achieve the state to its least possible expression.
01:46:04.000Reducir el tamaño del Estado es en sí mismo un acto de justicia, porque cada erogación del Estado es una sustracción del pagador de impuestos.
01:46:13.000Desde nuestro punto de vista, el único Estado aceptable es el Estado más chico posible para devolverle al el único Estado aceptable es el Estado más chico posible para devolverle al ciudadano lo Aplausos Aplausos Aplausos
01:46:42.000So all the contributions that do not have to do directly with the protection of the three fundamental rights, which are the right to life, the freedom and the private property, should be the origin of individuals associated with voluntary voluntary, without the state of intromation.
01:47:09.000This should be so because, unlike the economy, the power is a game of zero.
01:47:14.000All the power that the State has necessarily cannot have at the same time the society.
01:47:22.000That's why we don't believe in partial solutions or central commitments.
01:47:32.000We know that doing things at the same time is an invitation to the return of the State, which, like a metastatic cancer, only knows to expand.
01:47:40.000And must be obligated actively to proceed.
01:47:43.000No serves to try to achieve a just medium.
01:47:46.000Everything that exceeds its essential function should be removed from its orbit or sooner or later, will be able to use what does not belong.
01:48:14.000The modern state has tools that have grown in sophistication with the time.
01:48:20.000We are not talking about an obvious state like the fascist or the communist state, but a subtle and insidious state that moves on the individual through the art of propaganda and the cultural infiltration.
01:48:33.000Or at least so was until recently, since it is more difficult to simulate its totalitarian character.
01:48:40.000We have seen, for example, just to mention, that in certain countries of Europe, the citizens are being arrested for expressing social media.
01:48:49.000But in terms more general, I talk about the financing of the Academy, Incentivando la elaboración de estudios que justifiquen la implementación de políticas públicas intervencionistas y de la compra encubierta de medios de comunicación mediante la pauta pública.
01:49:14.000Hablo de las múltiples ONGs que viven de nuestros impuestos, de los subsidios a la cultura para producir propaganda.
01:49:21.000And here in the United States, of course, the scandal of USAID, that destinated millions of dollars to the taxpayers of the impuestos to financed from television and television channels to frauds electorals like Brazil, or governments with discriminatory aspirations like the South Africa.
01:49:50.000And as I said, governments with discriminatory aspirations like the South Africa, among other other aberrations, including the agenda of the climate paranoia, the excesses of gender ideology and the investigation that led to the creation of the COVID-19 virus.
01:50:14.000Sin embargo, lo único que realmente logra este mecanismo de bajada de línea globalista es transferir riqueza de la clase baja de un país rico a la clase alta de un país pobre.
01:50:26.000In few words, I'm talking about a global network of influence and opinion paid with the citizens' taxes, a propaganda without preceding in the human history, perhaps the biggest political scandal that we have seen.
01:50:40.000And then, those same hypocrites accuse Elon Musk of interfering in other countries.
01:50:46.000clearly, its big deal is as big as its total aspirations.
01:50:51.000And if that level of collective consciousness had had solutions, its apologists would have at least something to refer to.
01:51:15.000But that was historically the excuse of the statists of the past, that prosperity would come through the rational administration of resources by the state, resources that the private sector could be able to take advantage.
01:52:29.000in the implementation of regulations that cause more problems to be solved by more regulations.
01:52:35.000In medicine, the term "hiatrogenia" is used to refer to the damage that a patient is due to the medical care.
01:52:52.000So, it could be said that the statics regime consists of the iatrogenia as a policy of state.
01:52:59.000I mean, it's the doctor who enriches the progress and intencional deterioration of his patients.
01:53:05.000With the model of the state present, the state breaks the legs for later to sell you the mulets like a overpriced and obligate to thank you.
01:53:14.000and you keep following them if you do not do it.
01:53:16.000As a counterpoint, I have said that in Chinese medicine traditional Chinese, the family family family was paying for a constant salary for keeping the family healthy. the family family family was paying for a constant salary So, according to the legend, when a member was sick, the doctor stopped to perceive the honoraries, being incentivized to solve the disease in an efficient way and fast.
01:53:45.000Imagine if the state could only work so.
01:53:50.000Today, those who want to keep this system of demensical call them anti-democratic.
01:54:03.000Pero nuevamente, esta es una tergiversación de las palabras, algo muy propio de la izquierda, para variar.
01:54:11.000Eso no le llaman democracia al gobierno del pueblo, sino al paradigma de expansión total, estatal y limitada, que ellos mismos administran.
01:54:21.000For this, democracy exists only if they win what they want, to be able to put people in their own interests.
01:54:29.000But when the minority electorate is they, the majority of the election comes to be authoritarian.
01:54:35.000In fact, many of us who accuse us of anti-democratic were not elected.
01:54:41.000They have taken decisions that affect thousands of millions of people around the world and, however, nobody knows them.
01:54:47.000They are not responsible for anyone else than themselves, and they cannot be taken by the popular vote.
01:54:52.000And so, they come to talk about democracy.
01:54:56.000In fact, they say that Trump and I are a danger to democracy, but in reality, they are saying that we are a danger to them.
01:55:34.000Somos un peligro para el partido del Estado, para quienes viven de su expansión ilimitada, para quienes quieren un individuo dependiente y sometido a sus caprichos regulatorios.
01:55:49.000We came for their privileges, having been chosen by the majority of our people with the clear mandate of quitarles a power that does not belong to us.
01:58:10.000And more still, this year we will be able to take the phase 2 of this process that we have called the Motosierra Profunda to continue to be able to pay the state, devolviendo a people the wealth that never had been able to have been arrebatated.
01:58:40.000What interesting is that this process of justice has a political correlation, because, by its nature, the state of the state was financed historically from the public spending and from the negocios with the state.
01:59:02.000That's why, the State's cut the manguer to the clients of the State inquisitive in it, that they would have a fierce resistance to change, paying the money to pay the impuestos to keep us subsyugated.
01:59:15.000Our method is similar to our dear friend Elon Musk: "Revising office by office".
01:59:30.000Conservar lo que sirve y funciona y descartar el resto.
02:00:02.000Many of them will return to the private sector and gain their lives of their goods and services in the market, like the taxpayers of the tax that have lived so many years.
02:00:12.000Mi más sentido pésame a los políticos que creyeron que este momento nunca llegaría y no están preparados, porque se van a llevar un baldazo de agua fría.
02:00:21.000Por suerte para ellos, en toda desgracia hay una oportunidad, en toda desgracia hay una oportunidad, y debido a nuestro avance de regulador, los salarios del sector privado seguirán subiendo, por lo que si hacen las cosas los salarios del sector privado seguirán subiendo, por lo que si hacen las cosas bien, podrán
02:00:51.000Como ya he dicho, esto no es una tarea sencilla.
02:01:01.000Here in the United States, bureaucrats rebel have tried to sabotage the work And we're going
02:01:35.000But today, the problem extends beyond the pressures that the model of the present state has subjected to each of our nation individually.
02:02:00.000Because the decline of our governments during the recent history, throughout the long and long of the Occident, not only empobreciated spiritually and spiritually our own citizens, but also affected our political, economic, cultural and socially, against the external enemy.
02:02:16.000We became morally weak and made us vulnerable.
02:02:19.000At the worst expressions of the barbarian, the worst enemies of freedom.
02:02:25.000And to them no one can give a cent, because when they're blood, they move forward and without pied.
02:02:32.000This was demonstrated during the cobardes attacks perpetuados on October 7th of 2023 in Israel, which cost more than 1.000 innocents and the capture of 251 people.
02:02:44.000This week Israel received the bodies without the living of the families, which were persecuted by the terrorist and murder which were persecuted by the terrorist and murder of Hamas, among which one is a mother and two children, a child of 4 years old and a child of 9 months old.
02:03:11.000Es tan inescrupuloso y sanguinario este régimen que...
02:03:15.000In the last gesto canallesco, they didn't have a better idea than exhibiting their mouths against the victor of a multitude without the most minimum respect.
02:03:25.000This is what is in the game, and we can't give ourselves the luxury of failure.
02:03:29.000That is why it is important that nations that we have embraced in the idea of freedom remain united and collaborate with others.
02:03:37.000We must form a free alliance of nations, because as I have said in another occasion, the wrong organized only because as I have said in another occasion, the wrong organized only can be defeated by the
02:03:58.000Only through this international right-wing, we will put a fin to the political caste that we face, which is going to be hunding the West's deep deep and to recover the impetus to protect the despotic forces that we want.
02:04:21.000For that, I want to also mention that Argentina is the first country in the world to be the first place in the world to be the reciprocity agreement that Trump's administration in terms of commercial.
02:04:49.000In fact, if we were restricted by the Mercosur, Argentina would already work on a free trade agreement with the United States that is mutually beneficial and that is not on the backs of the Argentine product but not on the American market.
02:05:13.000This is so because only working with those who want to build a free world we can go ahead.
02:05:20.000Just so we'll be able to go out of the pain of the state omniprocent.
02:05:24.000and so we can continue doing what we know as Occident, putting down the limits of what possible, trusting in the creativity of society and not in the sterile discrecionality of the bureaucrats.
02:05:36.000So we can return our journey of greatness as civilization, making honor of our ancestors who gave us life for a free world and a prosperous making honor of our ancestors who gave us life for a free Only so, finally, we can find ourselves with ourselves and create what made us great as civilization.
02:06:11.000¡Viva la libertad, carajo! ¡Viva la libertad, carajo! ¡Viva la libertad, ¡Viva la libertad, carajo! ¡Viva la libertad, ¡Viva la libertad, carajo! ¡Viva la libertad, ¡Viva la libertad, carajo! ¡Viva
02:07:45.000Who is ready in just a few short hours to hear from the man himself, our 47th president, Donald J. Trump? .
02:07:58.000My friends, it has been a long road, has it not?
02:08:05.000And these last four years, we felt every single painful minute.
02:08:11.000But nothing, nothing, my friends, is sweeter or more extraordinary than victory.
02:08:20.000Who here has enjoyed the last 30 days of America's new golden age?
02:08:28.000*crowd cheers* And who here has been filled with pride and excitement in watching President Trump install the most extraordinary cabinet and team any of us has ever seen?
02:08:47.000Our new Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth.
02:08:53.000Our new Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem.
02:09:21.000Perhaps the most exciting of all is the fact that every single day, the entire White House staff, the entire administration, the entire cabinet on behalf of President Trump and his extraordinary leadership is getting...
02:09:41.000The lies out of our schools, the men out of women's sports, the poison out of our foods, the woke out of our military, the predators off our streets, and the illegal aliens the hell out of our country.
02:10:01.000Every day, under President Trump, he is saying hell no to DEI. He is saying hell no to CRT. A historic slate of executive orders have been issued by President Trump to reclaim control of this government,
02:10:29.000to reclaim control of our destiny, to reclaim control of our future, and to restore the idea that under a democracy The entire federal bureaucracy works for President Trump and not the other way around.
02:10:45.000He is the elected head of our government.
02:10:48.000And to all the people in the media, all the people on the radical left, all the people in the Democratic Party screaming about democracy, Donald Trump is the one who is saving democracy.
02:11:00.000Donald Trump is the one who is saving our Constitution.
02:11:04.000Donald Trump is the one who is saving America.
02:11:07.000And any federal bureaucrat who defies the lawful orders of this president will be fired.
02:11:19.000President Trump will ensure that whether you work at the FBI, whether you work at the CIA, whether you work at the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, the Department of Health and Human Services, career Civil servants, also known as bureaucrats, work for the American people, and they work for the president, the American people elected.
02:12:29.000What President Trump endured in order to get to this point, to climb to the top of that Everest summit, let us not forget what this whole movement has endured to reach this glorious day.
02:12:45.000Eight long years of weaponized government.
02:13:55.000When the lawsuits came against President Trump, when the lawfare came against President Trump, when the weaponized law enforcement and intelligence community came against President Trump, and when the bullets came against President Trump, did he falter?
02:15:06.000And all day long, as he's signing executive orders, as he's meeting with world leaders, as he is orchestrating and directing the actions of this government, he is thinking about you and your future.
02:15:17.000President Trump's heart beats for the American people.
02:15:21.000President Trump's heart beats for the American republic.
02:15:24.000And President Trump's heart is filled with nothing but love and loyalty for this republic.
02:15:33.000No president has done more in 30 days than President Trump has done.
02:15:41.000It is not enough to celebrate the victories we've achieved thus far.
02:15:46.000Every single day, I need, we need, and President Trump, our president, needs you to be involved in pushing this agenda forward.
02:15:58.000Promoting every single victory, every success, every agenda item, being involved at every level of politics to keep driving forward.
02:16:07.000You think they're just going to give us our country back?
02:16:10.000You think they're just going to roll over, move out of the way, stop their scheming and their lying?
02:16:14.000Or do you think we are going to have to be on top of it every single day, focused every single day, driving forward every single day with unrelenting focus and passion?
02:16:47.000But it's going to take everyone in this room to stand with President Trump each and every day, to stand by his side every single day as President Trump boldly and bravely leads us into this golden age.
02:17:00.000And if you do that, I promise you, if you support this president and his leadership vision and his command and his inspiration, I promise you.
02:17:09.000That if we follow President Trump, then this is what our future will look like.
02:17:13.000The best economy in history, the strongest border in history, the proudest and most patriotic children in history, and the single greatest future in history.
02:17:22.000And we will prove worthy of this moment.
02:17:27.000We will prove worthy of this opportunity given to us by Almighty God.
02:17:31.000And I swear to you, and I promise you and I pledge to you, it will all be worth it.
02:17:37.000And our children will grow up in a world where they can say America is stronger, more incredible, more courageous, more united, more devoted, more committed, more incredible, Amazing that it has ever been before with the leadership and the vision and the drive of our President Donald J. Trump.
02:17:57.000So I ask you all to send a message right now to all the bureaucrats, to all the radical left commies, to the criminal aliens, the foreign gangs, the transnational terrorists, to everyone who threatens the future of this country.
02:21:38.000And I tell you what, honey, I've been here several days.
02:21:42.000The energy and the excitement in this room is unbelievable.
02:21:47.000It's hard to believe that a year has gone.
02:21:51.000Thank God we lived with four years of a president who tried to shove down our throats Marxism and the moral decay of the fabric of our country.
02:22:42.000Well, I was thinking about something, about this cabinet that we have now, and I thought to myself, we really have a cabinet that looks like America here.
02:22:52.000First of all, you have a president that knows how many grandchildren he has, and he loves every one of them.
02:25:08.000You know, there used to be a time that depravity, murder, brutality was not acceptable to either party when Republicans and Democrats alike were determined.
02:25:27.000But here we are, after an October 7, where we really learned what today's Democrat Party is.
02:25:33.000It's the Republican Party, it's conservatives, it's Jews, it's Christians who really care about what's going on in Israel and are appalled at the heinous acts.
02:25:48.000It's the Republicans, it's the conservatives, it's Donald J. Trump who have said Israel must conquer, Israel must win, Israel must do what it needs to do, not just to defend, but to go on offense and get rid of the enemy.
02:26:02.000So I just want to remind everybody that a year ago I interviewed the father of a hostage victim at that time.
02:26:12.000Sagi Dekelhan, and here we are a year later.
02:26:16.000But, honey, I want you to talk about what we saw the other day with four bodies coming out of Israel and the joy that was exhibited by the Palestinians in Gaza as these coffins were shown.
02:26:42.000You don't take a nine-month-old baby and a four-year-old little boy and their mother and torture them, strangle those kids with your bare hands, chop up their bodies so nobody they think will notice.
02:27:02.000Remember when that mother was being pulled with her kids and she knew that people doing this are subhumans.
02:27:41.000They seek to extinguish us, these Islamist terrorists, and we're going to have to extinguish them before they even have a shot at extinguishing us.
02:29:37.000We have a big problem in this country.
02:29:39.000We can't decide if we're a constitutional republic, a federal republic, a representative republic, or a republic at all.
02:29:46.000And the truth is that if they have their way, the people who are worried about the Constitution, first of all, what Constitution are they worried about?
02:30:08.000What Elon Musk, with the leadership of Donald Trump, have uncovered is a government within a government.
02:30:13.000It's not just waste, fraud, and abuse.
02:30:16.000It is a subterranean government that is spending trillions of dollars to push a radical left agenda.
02:30:24.000And we have no help from you and the media who are attacking the very people who are uncovering the bloat and the spending and the waste and the criminality.
02:30:36.000Why the hell aren't you uncovering it?
02:34:40.000And the country came together and said, we must, in the Constitution, fix this.
02:34:47.000We must give equal rights to human beings who have been held as slaves and are now free.
02:34:55.000We must give them all the protections and rights of a citizen of the United States.
02:35:02.000Jurisdiction thereof meant The black slaves who were now free were in the jurisdiction of the United States, and all the rights and privileges, including equality and all the rest, would apply to them.
02:35:20.000It was written by Republican senators.
02:35:24.000The 14th Amendment was based, this aspect of it, based on the 1866 Civil Rights Act, the first Civil Rights Act.
02:35:32.000Andrew Johnson, who was then president after the assassination of Lincoln, was a Democrat.
02:35:39.000He refused to sign that civil rights bill.
02:35:42.000So they overrode him and they said, we need to enshrine this in the Constitution of the United States.
02:35:49.000That provision applied to black people who were freed from slavery and were still being abused in the old Confederacy.
02:36:01.000And that amendment was passed by three-fourths of the state legislatures, including southern states, that were told, if you don't vote for this, you're not coming back into the Union.
02:36:20.000In fact, they rejected the idea of what they called Indians, because they had separate countries at the time, or at least it was viewed that way.
02:36:32.000Underscoring the fact that you had to be a United States citizen and understood to be.
02:36:37.000So people who write that all of a sudden, now it's interpreted to mean, if you come into the United States illegally and you have a baby, that's a citizen, that baby?
02:36:46.000There is literally no language to back it up, no legislative history to back it up, no history whatsoever to back it up, and yet I suspect the courts are going to give the birthright citizenship crowd what they want.
02:37:00.000And they'll mention some 1898 decision involving a Chinese couple.
02:37:51.000You notice how it's the Republican Party that consistently has been the champion of equality.
02:37:58.000And the rights of black people throughout history.
02:38:02.000Every major civil rights bill, starting in 1866 through the 50s with Eisenhower, the 60s, the Republicans either wrote it, sponsored it, or they had supermajorities to get them passed.
02:38:15.000Never forget, the Democrat Party is the party of slavery, segregation, eugenics, Jim Crow.
02:38:21.000Now they're the party of Marxism, Islamism, and anti-constitutionalism.
02:41:30.000I actually started quite a while ago in CPAC. And I enjoyed it so much that I came back for a second one, then a third, then I said, what the hell, let's run for president.
02:41:42.000Matt said, it's like five years ago, six years ago.
02:41:48.000For the presidency of the United States.
02:41:52.000It is my honor to introduce to CPAC 2017 Our president, Donald Trump.
02:42:00.000First of all, I want to thank Matt Schlapp and his very, very incredible wife and boss, Mercedes, who have been fantastic friends and supporters and so great when I watch them on television defending me, nobody has a chance.
02:42:21.000You never stop fighting for America, and I will never, ever stop fighting for you.
02:42:27.000We know that there are still more records to be shattered, new summits to be scaled, more triumphs to be realized, and more amazing history just waiting to be written.
02:42:37.000The American adventure has only just begun.
02:42:41.000God bless America, and we will see you next year.
02:44:46.000of the IRGC, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
02:44:52.000He started the IRGC with Khomeini in 1979. Three months after I was born, I was living in Iran, and I brought him on the podcast.
02:45:02.000For many years we've been wanting to have this man to come on the podcast, but obviously he doesn't want to come because directly and indirectly millions of people died because of this man.
02:45:11.000If you go on Google, you type in founder of IRGC, you'll see his name and Khomeini's name.
02:48:00.000They don't want you to talk over there.
02:48:02.000So you got guns, freedom of speech, and in the world, we have 195 countries, of which 193. Have constitutions.
02:48:12.000Of the 193 that have constitutions, only one country gives you full-on freedom of speech with nothing about hate speech and Second Amendment.
02:48:20.000We're the only ones here that we have in America.
02:50:09.000So we land in Miami, and I'm like, oh my god, this kind of takes me back to that moment when we left, you know, Iran and experiencing what freedom's like.
02:50:16.000Then we get down here, and I'm sitting, and I'm talking to all these different senators and congressmen in Brazil, and here's a number I noticed.
02:50:23.000I want to kind of take it back, because it's very important for us to be thinking about.
02:50:26.000In Brazil, they have 11 Supreme Court justices, of which only two are conservative.
02:50:32.000In Brazil, they have 81 senators, of which only 22 are conservatives.
02:50:38.000In Brazil, they have 513 congressmen and women, of which only 130 are conservatives.
02:50:45.000Let me just kind of take back a little bit and talk to you guys about maybe possibly the greatest accomplishment any president's ever done.
02:50:53.000The Supreme Court Justice was the other way around 6-3.
02:50:57.000And when they said, Colorado wants to remove the president off the ballot, and they would have succeeded, Kamala Harris would have been your president today.
02:52:06.000Then you go from there, you dream about coming to America, and you sit there, you think about it.
02:52:10.000You say, oh my God, I cannot even believe the fact that I'm living in a country like this where you and I... As an atheist, you're like, maybe God this.
02:53:06.000While I'm in the Army, while I'm in the Army, because of my PT score, I was able to go hang out at this one camp for two days where we could play pool, jump in a lake, and all this stuff.
02:53:47.000How many of you remember the last time you had one of those nights where you pray for an hour and you're on your knees and nobody sees you?
02:53:56.000By the way, for some of you that are devout Christians, maybe it's a normal Tuesday for you, but for those of you guys that just kind of go to church once in a while, you've only done that three or four or five times in your life.
02:54:41.000You don't think God's hands on America again?
02:54:45.000By the way, the reason why I'm sharing this with you is sometimes when we start winning and we start making money, And we start driving the nice cars, and our candidate wins, and we're like, yay, it's great, and it's awesome.
02:55:59.000Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome U.S. Secretary of the Interior, Doug Burgum. Doug Burgum.
02:56:25.000Good afternoon, CPAC! So great to be with you.
02:56:32.000We are gathered here today at a historic time, and in a few hours you're going to have an opportunity to hear from a very historic president.
02:56:43.000Here's a name you probably haven't heard of.
02:56:45.000Buddy Melgus, Olympic gold medal sailor from Zenda, Wisconsin.
02:56:50.000Grew up on a small teeny little lake in Wisconsin.
02:56:53.000How did a kid from a small little lake in Wisconsin go on to become an Olympic sailor?
02:56:58.000He became an Olympic gold medal sailor because he understood you never have to recover from a great start.
02:58:19.000Very clear and a very powerful vision on ways to make America great again.
02:58:25.000And at the center of that is energy dominance.
02:58:28.000He knows that energy dominance, when the US is energy dominance, it's going to bring down inflation because energy is a component of every single product that we buy, every piece of food you eat, every vehicle you drive.
02:58:40.000He also knows that when we have energy to sell to our friends and allies, it's going to end our trade deficits.
02:58:47.000He knows it's going to create great American jobs.
02:58:50.000And he also knows that when we have energy to sell to our allies, it's going to end the wars abroad.
02:58:57.000And he is someone who wants to stop the killing.
02:59:02.000And President Trump, I believe, for that work, is going to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
02:59:07.000And this is a group that can help that happen for him.
02:59:11.000Yes, President Trump knows better than anyone that energy dominance is the foundation for American prosperity, for affordability, and world peace.
02:59:20.000The Biden administration, wow, what a mess that we've inherited.
02:59:25.000The Biden administration, at the core of everything they're doing, were beholden to a group of climate extremists.
02:59:31.000And when those climate extremists got the Biden administration to declare war on U.S. energy...
02:59:38.000And when they declared war on U.S. energy, it didn't reduce demand.
02:59:42.000It just shifted the supply to our adversaries across the world, to places like Iran.
02:59:47.000Iran, who sold hundreds of billions of dollars of energy through ghost ships and front companies to fund 24 terror groups against us.
02:59:58.000But President Trump wants that to stop.
03:00:01.000And he's got full maximum pressure against Iran.
03:00:05.000And he'll do what he did in his first term, which is financially he'll bring that country, or the Ayatollahs, not the country, but the Ayatollahs to their knees.
03:00:13.000But back home, the climate extremists that wanted to shut down U.S. energy, what did they do to Americans?
03:01:14.000All the things that we need to do to have our country become an energy powerhouse.
03:01:19.000But let's just talk a little bit about one of the things that were left, and that's the energy emergency, and that is our electrical grid in this country is absolutely in danger.
03:01:28.000The climate extremists worshipped an ideology that defied physics, economics, and common sense.
03:01:34.000They believed that that was the existential threat.
03:01:37.000I will tell you that there's two existential threats that this administration believes.
03:01:41.000And one existential threat was Iran getting a nuclear weapon.
03:02:00.000This country has shut down more electricity than China has opened in the last 12 months.
03:02:06.000And we need electricity, because electricity drives AI data centers, and AI data centers manufacture intelligence.
03:02:14.000And when we manufacture intelligence, it's going to change every job, every company, every industry.
03:02:19.000It's going to make the federal government more productive.
03:02:21.000But no, what did the Biden administration do?
03:02:24.000They focused on highly subsidized, unreliable, unaffordable, and weather-dependent sources of energy.
03:02:30.000We all know, you don't have to have a PhD to know that the sun doesn't shine 24 hours a day and the wind doesn't blow 365 days a year.
03:02:40.000And yet, they were trying, the Biden administration was trying to convince Americans that we could run a full-time society on part-time, intermittent, and expensive power.
03:02:50.000They pushed a Green New Deal that was a lot more like a Green New Steel because it was stealing your taxpayer dollars, stealing your taxpayer dollars at the same time, raising the price of electricity for all of you, raising the price of food in this country, and jeopardizing our grid.
03:03:08.000We have today, for the first time, I was in tech for 30 years before I ever ran for office.
03:03:13.000We never used more than 1% of the nation's electricity in the whole technology sector.
03:03:19.000But now with AI coming, the demand is increasing, and that's real demand with real value, not artificial demand where we say we're going to stop driving internal combustion vehicles in favor of an EV. We're going to subsidize those EVs at 15 times anything we've ever done before, and then we're going to buy our batteries from China, who control 85% of the rare earth minerals.
03:03:44.000But what do we have right now under President Trump?
03:03:46.000President Trump knows that we weren't in some kind of mythical energy transition.
03:03:50.000He knows that we've got to have energy addition.
03:03:53.000He also knows, because if anybody has studied Energy 101, you'd know that any, quote, transition would fail, because only one time in all of human history, only one time in human history have humans ever transitioned off a source of energy.
03:04:20.000Yes, we transitioned off of whale oil.
03:04:22.000Whale oil became very popular because it was cleaner, but then along comes oil.
03:04:28.000And oil we could refine into kerosene, and kerosene was better than whale oil.
03:04:31.000And so who knew, but you're hearing it here at CPAC, that it was over 150 years ago, fossil fuels saved the whales.
03:04:38.000And I think we've got some t-shirt merch experts here in this room, and I just think that could make a great slogan on a t-shirt, by the way.
03:04:53.000But President Trump's got a plan for energy dominance that's going to help drive us forward.
03:04:59.000All of you know that we've got $36.5 trillion of debt because we hear it over and over again.
03:05:05.000But has anybody ever come on this stage and told you how much America's assets are?
03:05:11.000No, because nobody knows what they are.
03:05:13.000And the Biden administration is playing hide the ball.
03:05:16.000But in the Trump administration, we're going to build that balance sheet.
03:05:19.000And we have trillions and trillions of dollars worth of natural resources.
03:05:24.000And we're going to make sure that we understand that our assets far exceed the debt that we have.
03:05:30.000But before Joe Biden left office, one of the things that he did was he took 625 million acres of offshore potential, trillions of dollars of revenue potential.
03:05:42.000For you, your kids, and your grandkids, and with a stroke of a pen, said, we're never going to develop that.
03:06:24.000One of the other falsehoods is somehow that those climate extremists cared more about the environment than any of us in this room.
03:06:31.000And I know how deeply this group cares, and I know the people in my home state, the farmers and ranchers, fourth and fifth generation.
03:06:39.000They live on the land, they care about the soil health, they care about the water, they care about the air, and that's why North Dakota, we had some of the cleanest air and water in the country, and we were an energy powerhouse.
03:06:49.000We can do both of these things in our country.
03:06:52.000Because when you shut down U.S. energy and you push that supply overseas, you push it to places that use child labor, that don't do reclamation.
03:07:00.000They don't have any kind of regulatory environment like we have.
03:07:37.000One of the other executive orders that President Trump signed is one not just unleashing American energy, but unleashing Alaska's potential.
03:07:44.000And when we do that, we have an opportunity to sell energy to Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, our allies in the Pacific.
03:07:52.000Who we need more than ever because of the growing threat of China.
03:07:56.000So let me ask you, as we close out here today, when we talk about being energy dominant, we know that one thing that President likes to say, and I'm sure you'll hear it to say, which he wants us to drill, baby, drill, and we're going to do that.
03:08:13.000But the U.S. Geologic Survey, which is part of Interior, we've got a job.
03:08:17.000To actually go out and map those resources to find out how many trillions or hundreds of trillions of dollars of assets belong to all of you, the public.
03:08:25.000So we're going to map baby map, and then we're also going to mine baby mine.
03:08:30.000We're going to mine baby mine because we've got to get critical minerals developed back in our country.
03:08:36.000We're buying uranium from Russia for our nuclear plants.
03:08:40.000We have to be able to have those supply chains be right here, so we're going to do all of that, and when we do all of that, we're going to be able to build baby build.
03:08:49.000President Trump is the greatest economic developer that's ever existed.
03:08:53.000Nobody sells America better than he does.
03:08:56.000Chris Wright, my partner in this from the Department of Energy, he and I were asked by President Trump to join him when he was meeting with the Prime Minister of India and the Prime Minister of Japan.
03:09:07.000In those meetings, President Trump said to those leaders, you've got a deficit, a trade deficit with our country.
03:09:26.000Right now, every day, he's writing the sequel to that of The Art of the Deal in real time.
03:09:33.000Yes, he is, but he's dealing with the world leaders.
03:09:35.000They're coming to him, and they want to buy American, and we want to build American, and we know that President Trump is not only making America strong again, he's going to make America affordable again.
03:11:24.000I think Moms for America is exactly on track and is doing the right thing for the future of our country and our children.
03:11:30.000Like, Moms for America is going at the heart of the issue.
03:11:35.000I want to go on the record and say, I'm for moms, I'm for America, and I'm especially for Moms for America.
03:11:42.000But I am honored to join Moms for America today as we speak out against the horrific mandates.
03:11:48.000With a national network of over a half a million mothers, Moms for America is one of the fastest growing movements of women in the country.
03:11:57.000The most dangerous place in all of nature is between a mama bear and her baby cub.
03:12:06.000No matter what, no matter where, and no matter how difficult the obstacles are that are facing us and our families, we will not give up and we will not give in.
03:13:37.000This battle is every bit as important as a revolutionary war because we fight for the same thing.
03:13:43.000Moms for America is a national movement of moms reclaiming our culture for truth, family, freedom, and the Constitution.
03:13:53.000I think Moms for America is exactly on track and is doing the right thing for the future of our country and our children.
03:14:00.000Like, Moms for America is going at the heart of the issue.
03:14:04.000I want to go on the record and say I'm for moms, I'm for America, and I'm especially for Moms for America.
03:14:11.000But I am honored to join Moms for America today as we speak out against the horrific mandates.
03:14:16.000With a national network of over a half a million mothers, Moms for America is one of the fastest growing movements of women in the country.
03:14:26.000The most dangerous place in all of nature is between a mama bear and her baby cub.
03:17:55.000So I'm wearing a bow tie today, not my usual attire, in honor of Dr. Peter Hotez.
03:18:03.000You'll recall that Peter Hotez, last December, darkly muttered about the fact that as soon as President Trump was in office, there was going to be a series of virus outbreaks.
03:18:18.000of threatening viral events that were going to cause him a lot of grief and to focus on responding to those, but instead what we have is two amazing things that happened on the same day.
03:18:35.000Well, so who here noticed that the new HHS secretary is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.?
03:19:21.000Those of us that have kind of been in the sausage making process have a pretty good sense, but let's go to what President Trump has defined as Maha in this amazing executive order.
03:19:34.000And what he's laid out, the mission he's laid out for my friend, your friend too, Bobby Kennedy.
03:19:41.000This amazing new Secretary of HHS that, I mean, can you believe this?
03:19:45.000He's both a bodybuilder and a biohacker.
03:19:55.000A key factor in this is a refocusing of the entire government health enterprise from a focus on disease treatment to a focus on health promotion.
03:20:07.000And I really recommend that all of you take a moment to read President Trump's executive order creating the Maha Commission, which is across government and even includes Treasury.
03:20:19.000It's an amazing document in which he talks about the crisis of health in America, the crisis of chronic disease in America, but in particular it zeroes in on Bobby Kennedy's sweet spot.
03:20:35.000Protecting the health of children in America.
03:21:34.000Frankly, he's got to let loose the dogs of war.
03:21:36.000He's got to let loose the whole federal bureaucracy, transform it, and take this new leadership team that he's created under Donald Trump's direction and completely radicalize, radically transform CDC, FDA, NIH. Work with his partners at USDA to enable the health of Americans, and particularly the health of Americans' children.
03:22:05.000But Bobby Kennedy, okay, Bobby Kennedy did not work alone, okay?
03:22:11.000And Maha was actually something that existed in America already, a kind of subculture, one that I didn't even know very much about, that I discovered on American thought leaders, you know, throughout COVID. All these people that had been hit by reality in some way.
03:22:30.000Maybe they had a child that had been vaccine injured.
03:22:32.000Maybe they were poisoned by something.
03:22:35.000And millions and millions of Americans basically were not...
03:22:39.000Many of us were just simply not aware that there was this growing movement of people that were looking at root causes of health.
03:22:47.000And Bobby was kind of a central figure in this.
03:22:49.000So him coming in as the HHS secretary, I mean, this is the...
03:22:54.000In terms of budget, the largest of the departments, right?
03:24:27.000One of the things that Cash kept talking about as he was going through his nomination hearings, he said, 100,000 Americans a year are dying of CCP fentanyl, and that is going to be one of the priorities of the FBI. So that is the Make America Unhealthy Again movement.
03:24:48.000But we also have to have our own kind of individual agency here.
03:24:53.000We can't let cash have to deal with this entire problem or our foreign policy establishment deal with the entirety of that.
03:25:00.000So if we have enough time, we'll talk a little bit about things that can be done about fentanyl.
03:25:04.000I think it's one of the clear things that HHS can do together in partnership with the other agencies, and particularly the FBI and CASH, to help make America healthy again with measurable responses within 12 to 18 months.
03:25:19.000But let's talk for a moment about what is public health.
03:25:29.000Today's public health is not about medicine.
03:25:33.000It's not about the physician-patient relationship.
03:25:38.000It's not about empowering patients to take control of their own health, which is what we need to do in the day of Maha.
03:25:47.000What we don't need is top-down management of what you are able to do, what your doctor tells you to do based on the government's mandates and your insurance company's profit.
03:26:02.000We have to get back to decentralized health under the control of you, the patient.
03:26:09.000But what do we have right now in public health?
03:26:21.000It is the logic of the greatest good for the greatest number.
03:26:25.000That is absolutely the centerpiece of modern public health and it's based on big data.
03:26:32.000It's based on big data analysis of what on average is best for you.
03:26:38.000And then a top-down approach to cause you to comply.
03:26:43.000With what the numbers say under close analysis is best for you.
03:26:49.000And as a consequence, public health has destroyed the practice of medicine.
03:26:54.000This is why your docs have no options.
03:26:57.000They have to treat you based on protocol because that's what public health is saying they have to do.
03:27:04.000Public health is taking over medicine.
03:27:07.000And as I say, it is focused on outcomes.
03:27:12.000Optimizing outcomes, the best outcomes for all of us, what it needs to do is focus on opportunity.
03:27:21.000What we need to do is enable you to have the opportunity to choose whether or not to optimize your own health and have the information to do it, but what we don't need is public health telling us that we can't eat McDonald's hamburgers and drink Coca-Cola.
03:27:40.000What we need is the information so that you can make an informed decision about what you eat and what you do to manage your health, not to tell you and micromanage you about what your choices have to be.
03:27:55.000And the bottom line of this, and think about this, okay?
03:28:16.000They used the collective rights method.
03:28:19.000What's apparently going to be better for the greater good?
03:28:22.000But what happens when you use that collective rights approach?
03:28:25.000Every time, to paraphrase Stalin here, to make an omelette, you have to break a few eggs.
03:28:32.000And it turns out to be a lot of eggs, unfortunately.
03:28:35.000So we've got to get back to this approach of individual rights, individual agency, and, you know, the Hippocratic oath on the medical side.
03:28:43.000So there's an insidious thing that's happened.
03:28:48.000They've snuck some stuff in while Bobby was busy focused on confirmation.
03:28:54.000They've snuck in a UN Agenda 2030 item called One Health.
03:29:02.000The CDC surreptitiously agreed to the One Health policies of the World Economic Forum and the United Nations and the World Health Organization.
03:29:16.000Of course, we all think that animals should be healthy and the environment should be healthy, just like the Secretary was talking about with U.S. policy.
03:29:25.000But in One Health, your health is equivalent to the health of animals.
03:29:30.000Your health is equivalent to the health of a lab rat.
03:29:35.000And, you know, I had somebody post the other day, we put out an essay today about One Health and what it really means, and they said, hey, I'll be glad to sacrifice a lab rat if I can have a focus on my grandmother and improving her standard of living.
03:29:55.000The health of animals and the health of the environment are considered equivalent to the health of humans and this has now been slipped in this policy that's right up there with the Green New Deal while the new administration was distracted.
03:30:12.000Something that was in progress for two, three years under the Biden administration, they managed to sneak in.
03:30:18.000They managed to sneak in the new director of pandemic preparedness, a veterinarian who is the associate dean of One Health at Texas A&M, before Bobby even had a chance to sit in the chair.
03:30:32.000And this is what Bobby really needs your help with.
03:30:36.000This is what Maha needs your help with.
03:30:38.000He is going to be up against an entrenched bureaucracy that is going to fight him tooth and nail every step of the way.
03:30:46.000And the only way that we're going to be able to get sustainable change is we have to have all of us, the citizens of the United States, saying, we support you.
03:30:58.000We support a focus on health in Americans.
03:31:04.000And we are not okay with this globalist agenda of One Health, and we are not okay with the bureaucracy sneaking stuff in behind his back.
03:31:17.000Now, we only have a little bit of time left, but let's talk a little bit about bird flu.
03:31:23.000Well, so how many have noticed egg prices have gone through the roof?
03:31:27.000Okay, front page of the Epoch Times, okay, the national edition, you should check it out.
03:32:27.000But the policies of the USDA, which now have cost you $1.2 billion, and that's direct costs, for the USDA to compensate farmers that have had to kill their flocks.
03:32:55.000So we got to think of something different instead of this, you know, give a three-year-old a hammer and everything becomes a nail that is what USDA bureaucrats keep applying.
03:33:05.000I argue that instead of vaccinating chickens with a zoetous mismatched leaky bird flu vaccine, heard anything like that before?
03:33:17.000Say COVID? Okay, which will drive the evolution of more vaccine-resistant bird flu strains.
03:33:25.000We need to rethink this whole strategy.
03:33:28.000And what I advocate, and I can tell you, I hear rumor that this is being actively considered in the administration right now, and we may hear some announcements about this, is there's going to be a rethinking of how we approach this.
03:33:43.000And personally, I like the idea that we let loose the chicken industry to breed flu-resistant chickens and turkeys and ducks rather than trying to jab them all with crummy vaccines or kill them all because they get infected.
03:34:01.000That's just one example of what can happen if Maha is unchained.
03:34:08.000And everyone, I think we've run out of time here.
03:34:11.000The bottom line is, let's focus on root causes of health.
03:35:51.000We've been with President Trump from the very beginning.
03:35:54.000Believe it or not, he talked about running back in 2011. And I can tell you, this campaign was head and shoulders better than anything we ever did in the past.
03:36:06.000I can't tell you that Matt is exactly right.
03:36:09.000Susie Wilds, Chris Lasavita, Chairman Watley, and I don't think I've ever complimented an RNC chairman.
03:37:18.000Okay, so is this your first time at CPAC? This is not my first time at CPAC. In fact, last year when I was at CPAC, we were on the campaign trail with President Trump.
03:37:26.000I was doing Media Row, and I was pregnant with my child.
03:37:29.000I was wearing this big blazer, and now I have a seven-month-old baby, and we're at the White House.
03:38:01.000Jubilant, excited, exhilarated, and defiant.
03:38:05.000And the president is not backing down.
03:38:08.000We've seen judges in courts acting like judicial activists.
03:38:12.000We have Democrats who are hooting and hollering outside of empty federal office buildings because we want to simply cut fraud, waste, and abuse from our federal government.
03:38:31.000The golden age of America has begun, and we're just getting started.
03:38:37.000Give an insight into, you know, when you walk into the Oval Office, President Trump is there, he presses his button to get his Diet Coke, which is one of the coolest things.
03:38:46.000And then he sometimes will ask you, do you want one too?
03:39:25.000You know, one of the things I love about President Trump, and I think what makes him such a great leader, is that he's so deeply involved in every decision that is made.
03:39:33.000Every speech that is written, every executive order that is signed, where most politicians, you just hand them the script and they read it.
03:39:40.000President Trump cares about every word he is saying and every action he is taking.
03:40:54.000And the White House is full of working women.
03:40:56.000In fact, I was going up the staircase in the West Wing today and saw two of my female colleagues, both of whom are pregnant, having babies this year.
03:41:03.000And they're working and they're saving America because President Trump believes in the best people for the job, the brightest people.
03:41:37.000When you walked into that White House press briefing room, now you were there beforehand as one of the press assistants, but this is different.
03:41:45.000This is like one of the most important jobs of the administration.
03:41:58.000Well, there is extensive preparation that goes into each briefing, and I'm so blessed to have an amazing team at the White House who helps me prepare.
03:42:07.000I brought three of our big guns yesterday.
03:42:09.000We had Stephen Miller and Mike Waltz and Kevin Hassett join me at the podium to celebrate one month.
03:42:15.000And I lean on the policy experts in the building and, you know, to figure out what is fake news versus what is truth.
03:42:22.000So a lot of preparation, a lot of reading, talking to the president to understand his thinking.
03:42:27.000And then when I got to the podium, I realized the president is delivering on everything he said he was going to do, which makes my job as his spokeswoman easy because I'm not working for a politician who is lying and we have to spin.
03:42:40.000I'm working for a man who said things and he's delivering on those things every day.
03:42:48.000I remember, because I worked in the first administration, and the press secretary at the time, I was a strategic communications senior advisor for President Trump, and our press secretary at the time was now Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who will be on stage with me tomorrow.
03:43:08.000But I remember those exchanges between Sarah and this guy.
03:44:16.000Well, first of all, since you brought up Jim Acosta, he's been saying some not-so-nice things about me online, and I've resisted responding, but since you brought him up, I'd like to say to Jim, at least I have a job, Jim, okay?
03:44:39.000As far as the strategy, we are on offense.
03:44:43.000We are on offense every single day, and the president leads from an offensive mindset.
03:44:50.000We are not going to apologize for cutting waste, fraud, and abuse from our government.
03:44:55.000We are not going to apologize for mass-deporting illegal immigrant criminals who have broken our nation's laws and terrorized our communities.
03:45:06.000And we are not going to apologize for slashing regulations and undoing the disastrous policies of the previous administration.
03:45:14.000That's what the president said he was going to do.
03:45:16.000And that's what the majority of our fellow Americans want.
03:45:19.000The latest CBS poll, 70% of Americans say that President Trump is delivering on what he said he was going to do.
03:45:55.000Waking up every day and just remembering I'm blessed and we're all blessed to live in this country and to have a president who is looking out for us every day.
03:46:26.00018 hours a day, so you gotta like who you're around.
03:46:29.000But we truly are having fun, and we're getting work done.
03:46:33.000And again, the president is leading with that positive, happy warrior attitude, and it transpires to the rest of the White House every day.
03:46:40.000And you know, in the first administration, there were those chiefs of staffs that were trying to undermine President Trump.
03:46:46.000This is, I mean, Susie Wiles is so impressive in terms of being able to bring order.
03:46:54.000And just, I think, so much structure to what we're seeing at the White House.
03:48:00.000First of all, running for office was an incredible experience, and I think it helped prepare me a lot for this job.
03:48:05.000But obviously, you know, public speaking, not being afraid, and just doubling down on your positions and your values, and grateful for the experience.
03:48:15.000Glad I lost the general election because this job is a heck of a lot more fun.
03:48:48.000Well, I really would love to answer this question, but upon driving over here from the White House, I actually learned that I have been sued by the Associated Press.
03:49:19.000But look, we feel we are in the right in this position.
03:49:23.000And I said in my first briefing at the podium, we are going to ensure that truth and accuracy is present at that White House every single day.
03:49:37.000And one of the changes that we made, President Trump ran a non-traditional media strategy on the campaign trail, and he owned it, and he did...
03:49:45.000The Theo Vaughn podcast, the Joe Rogan podcast.
03:49:49.000He went places that no other politician has ever wanted to go.
03:50:15.000We're covering the President of the United States just as much as any other legacy media outlet who has spewed lies about President Trump for years.
03:50:22.000Lies about President Trump, lies about the people who work for President Trump, lies against people like yourselves.
03:50:31.000This is what the media, so many in the media, have done.
03:50:34.000I'm not saying all of them, because there are some good eggs out there, for sure.
03:50:36.000But there is definitely the sense that they drove this narrative, that they pushed this leftist agenda.
03:50:42.000Didn't they forget to talk about Biden's mental decline for quite some time?
03:50:46.000That was a narrative that they just ignored, I guess, the cover-up of the century.
03:50:51.000What were they doing, sitting out there in the White House, just eating popcorn and going, yeah, why isn't he coming out to speak to us?
03:51:35.000It was always a lie, and shame on the media for peddling it.
03:51:42.000So there's this thing called the press pool, and they walk...
03:51:45.000So President Trump, he's in the Oval Office with all of his executive orders, the blue binders, and there they bring in the press pool, and he loves it.
03:52:08.000Don't you think they should just take a vacation at this point because they just can't keep up?
03:52:10.000Well, we've signed 73 executive orders.
03:52:13.000Actually, the president was signing two more when I left the White House, so 75 executive orders.
03:52:18.000Quadruple the number of Barack Obama, double the number of Joe Biden in that same period of time.
03:52:24.000He is outworking every president ever, and the media can't keep up.
03:52:28.000But that first day, President Trump was, think about this, he was inaugurated, swore the oath of office, goes to the White House, sees his old office.
03:52:38.000For the first time, the Resolute desk, and he says, let's invite journalists into one of the most intimate spaces of the American presidency in the Oval Office, and I'll take questions from them on any topic they want for more than an hour.
03:52:52.000This is the most transparent and accessible president we have ever had, despite what the media wants to say.
03:54:15.000I asked him the question, what is your message to young men?
03:54:20.000There's a lot of young women out there, young girls, who really admire you.
03:54:25.000I mean, in addition to being the youngest press secretary in history, Really doing the work that you're doing and just being so strong while you're doing it.
04:12:20.000Good morning and welcome to CPAC. Please join me for the Pledge of Allegiance to our great country.
04:12:33.000of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
04:16:37.000Heavenly Father, we come before you for this great and victorious event at CPAC. We want to thank you for the leadership at CPAC, Matt and Mercedes Schlapp, because you've allowed them to lead a great organization with American patriots.
04:20:00.000We have a very special guest who's going to be here during the conference.
04:20:05.000You know, kind of like a tech titan maybe.
04:20:11.000Yes, ladies and gentlemen, because thank God we're back to two genders.
04:20:22.000Elon Musk will be here on the CPAC stage.
04:20:28.000We just launched yesterday with the CPAC International Summit, where we had several key members coming from, representing from different countries with their delegations, where we had several key members coming from, representing from different countries with their delegations, Matt.
04:20:50.000Do you want to share what we did there?
04:20:51.000Yeah, we passed three resolutions in support with one of America's greatest ally, the State of Israel.
04:21:04.000We were both saddened and honored to be joined by the families of those who have friends and family members as hostages by the evil Hamas.
04:21:16.000And we have two of the hostages that were freed Thank you for joining us today.
04:21:21.000And I believe they're here, right here with us.
04:21:50.000You honor us with your presence and your courage and your strength.
04:21:53.000And we have a president now in the United States of America that will not only help your loved ones, he's going to make it so that there aren't future victims, which we have to make sure we prevent.
04:23:34.000And so our message to the globalists is, no matter whether you're at the World Economic Forum, the WHO, The EU, you can boo at any time.
04:23:44.000The UN. No matter who is trying to tell you as a mom or a dad, as a church member, as a teacher, as a cop, no matter who is trying to tell you what pronouns you should use, how you should pray to your God, how much you believe your country is racist, all that's over.
04:24:11.000And a part of that is, and this is a great way to start.
04:24:15.000We just had Natasha out here and the great pastor from Arizona who was with us on the campaign trail in Arizona.
04:24:21.000Part of that is, can we all just thank God for giving us a president who knows how to lead?
04:24:29.000And I'll expand that to a great young vice president who knows how to lead.
04:24:41.000I don't know how CPAC became a global brand fighting the globalists with people here from like every country all over the world, but let's go with it because it seems to be working just fine.
04:24:56.000You are the reason because President Trump is in the White House today.
04:25:02.000All of you, each and every one of you fought hard, stood up.
04:25:08.000We all shared this incredible optimistic message that we need to save America and in essence save the world.
04:25:17.000So I want to thank you all personally from the bottom of our hearts as being part of this incredible CPAC family because you all have made the difference in this past election.
04:25:49.000So, you know, there's this young guy, you know, with this beautiful family, with this beautiful wife that is actually just a shining star right now in American politics.
04:26:02.000Marine veteran, former Ohio senator, one of the coolest guys I think we have around, and one of the best communicators in this Trump administration.
04:26:15.000Can you please let us applaud together, let us welcome the greatest Vice President of America, JD Vance.
04:27:17.000You know, yes, I am a little jet-lagged.
04:27:20.000So we did a trip where we went to France and then to Germany and then we went to San Diego for a family wedding and then back in D.C. and we did all that in, like, seven days.
04:28:23.000Thanks to all of you for making it possible for us to do all the great work we've been doing.
04:28:27.000In the administration, I know we wouldn't have been here without you, but I think the president is acutely aware that the American people gave us a window to save the country, and that's exactly what we're going to do, and thank God for that, because it's been a hell of a lot of fun the past month.
04:28:41.000Okay, so I don't even think we can keep track of all the things you all are doing.
04:28:45.000In fact, I don't even think the press can keep track of all they're doing.
04:28:50.000I mean, talk about the shock and awe strategy.
04:28:53.000So when you're looking at this list after list after list, what stands out?
04:28:58.000Well, speaking of the press, I do think that we've had maybe more executive orders than CNN has viewers each night.
04:29:04.000So hello to our friends at CNN. I actually think that their plan was they were going to go all in on anti-Trump and hope that he could save CNN in the same way that he did, frankly, in 2017, because nobody really watched the network until...
04:29:22.000Until he became president in 2017. But that's maybe the one thing I think the president has been unable to do, unable to save CNN's ratings over the last few months.
04:29:33.000But look, I think that what the president has tried to do is recognize that we have a historical mandate on a few issues.
04:29:41.000We have to secure the southern border, and thanks to his actions, border crossings are down well over 90 percent, and we're just getting started.
04:29:50.000He recognizes that we have to really unlock the engine of American growth.
04:29:55.000We've got to get back to having a growing economy that creates good jobs and high wages for the American people.
04:30:00.000And a lot of that goes back to drill, baby drill.
04:30:03.000We've done more on energy under President Trump's leadership than I think any administration in history.
04:30:11.000And of course, we're going to do more.
04:30:12.000And I think the third thing that he's tried to do, of course, With the help of Elon and all the great folks at Doge is ask, what are we doing with all of the American taxpayers' money and why are we wasting so much of it on garbage that the American people either aren't aware that we're spending it on or don't want to be spending it on in the first place?
04:30:33.000Like, for example, the stuff that we've figured out, Mercedes, is unbelievable.
04:31:28.000So, you know, there's this young guy, you know, with this beautiful family, with this beautiful wife that is actually just a shining star right now in American politics.
04:31:41.000Marine veteran, former Ohio senator, one of the coolest guys I think we have around, and one of the best communicators in this Trump administration.
04:31:54.000Can you please let us applaud together, let us welcome the greatest Vice President of America, J.D. Vance.
04:32:04.000What's up guys, how we doing? how we doing?
04:34:02.000Thanks to all of you for making it possible for us to do all the great work we've been doing in the administration.
04:34:07.000I know we wouldn't have been here without you, but I think the president is acutely aware that the American people gave us a window to save the country, and that's exactly what we're going to do.
04:34:16.000And thank God for that, because it's been a hell of a lot of fun the past month.
04:34:20.000Okay, so I don't even think we can keep track of all the things you all are doing.
04:34:24.000In fact, I don't even think the press can keep track of all they're doing.
04:34:28.000I mean, talk about the shock and awe strategy.
04:34:32.000So when you're looking at this list after list after list, what stands out to you?
04:34:37.000Well, speaking of the press, I do think that we've had maybe more executive orders than CNN has viewers each night.
04:34:42.000So hello to our friends at CNN. I think, I actually think that their plan was they were going to go all in on anti-Trump and hope that he could save CNN. In the same way that he did, frankly, in 2017, because nobody really watched the network until he became president in 2017. But that's maybe the one thing I think the president has been unable to do, unable to save CNN's ratings over the last few months.
04:35:11.000But look, I think that what the president has tried to do is recognize that we have a historical mandate on a few issues.
04:35:20.000We have to secure the southern border.
04:35:22.000And thanks to his actions, border crossings are down well over 90 percent.
04:35:44.000Under President Trump's leadership than I think any administration in history, and that's not an exaggeration, and of course we're going to do more.
04:35:51.000And I think the third thing that he's tried to do, of course, with the help of Elon and all the great folks at Doge, is ask, what are we doing with all of the American taxpayers' money, and why are we wasting so much of it on garbage that the American people either aren't aware that we're spending it on or don't want to be spending it on in the first place?
04:38:07.000And of course, we mourn with people, we pray for people, but we're also asking, as their government, why did this happen to your child in the first place?
04:38:16.000And the answer is that under Joe Biden, your government didn't do its job.
04:38:25.000On the economy, and I'm getting this question all the time, you know, it's this question of affordability, right?
04:38:30.000There's a lot of stress on our families, something that I think Joe Biden could not manage in terms of really helping lower that cost of living and making things just simply more affordable.
04:39:25.000Because, look, the fundamental goal of our immigration policy, of our border policy, of Doge saving taxpayer money, the fundamental goal is we want your children and grandchildren to be able to raise a family in security and comfort in the country that we all love.
04:39:42.000That is the whole goal of President Trump's agenda.
04:39:51.000And we know that to do that, we have to, first of all, unleash American...
04:39:59.000The prices got too high under Joe Biden's leadership.
04:40:03.000Well, one of the main drivers of groceries is energy.
04:40:05.000Because if the farmers are paying more for energy, then we're all paying more for what the farmers grow.
04:40:10.000And if the truck drivers who are delivering the groceries are paying more for fuel, then we're all paying more for what the truck drivers are delivering to the grocery store.
04:40:19.000If we unleash American energy, that will do more than anything to drive down the cost for the American people.
04:40:25.000The second thing, Mercedes, is we have got to stop spending the American We are used to it.
04:40:49.000And the good news is people no longer believe in their lies, despite all the mad they throw at us.
04:44:36.000I watched her run over the head of Harvard, the head of Penn, the great old Wharton School of Finance.
04:44:43.000With 69 days to go, Donald Trump tapped New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik to be U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.
04:44:50.000It has never been more critical for the United States to lead with strength and moral clarity.
04:44:55.000I share President Trump's vision of a U.N. reform by strong America first, peace through strength, and a return to this founding mission of promoting peace and security around the world.
04:45:05.000In closing, I will forever be grateful to my constituents in New York's 21st District.
04:45:10.000Ten years ago, upstate and North Country voters took a chance on a young, first-time, unknown candidate.
04:45:16.000And I commit to the American people that I will work my very hardest in the coming years to lead with moral clarity and American values.
04:45:23.000Whether it's standing up for election integrity, whether it's defeating Liz Cheney to unify the Republican Party...
04:45:34.000Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome U.S. Ambassador Designate to the United Nations, Elise Stefanik. please welcome U.S. Ambassador Designate to the United Nations, Elise Hello,
04:45:57.000America First Patriots. America First Patriots.
04:46:18.000It's so great to be back at CPAC with the Republican trifecta.
04:46:23.000A Republican House, a Republican Senate, and of course, President Donald J. Trump in the White House.
04:46:34.000Now we know none of this would have been possible without you, the American people.
04:46:40.000So I want to thank you for years of hard work, sacrifice, and dedication.
04:46:47.000To fire Joe Biden, elect President Trump to save America.
04:46:56.000And believe me, we know, and in fact, no one knows this better than President Trump and his entire family, that this election was not easy.
04:47:07.000The left and their loyal stenographers in the mainstream media stooped to new and disgraceful lows.
04:47:16.000Vicious smears, unprecedented attacks on his family, unconstitutional impeachments, and illegal lawfare by a weaponized and corrupt justice system.
04:47:29.000President Trump even faced an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.
04:47:35.000But by the grace of God, he prevailed and we are here today.
04:47:42.000Americans know that God was truly watching over America and President Trump on that fateful day.
04:47:53.000We will always remember that day in Pennsylvania, just like we will always remember November 5th, 2024, the once-in-a-lifetime victory of the most important election in history.
04:48:12.000That was the day when President Trump delivered truly the greatest political comeback of all time, winning the popular vote with an overwhelming mandate to save America.
04:48:24.000A mandate to make America strong again, safe again, healthy again, wealthy again, and to once and for all make America great again.
04:48:39.000And President Trump has wasted no time delivering on the promises he made to the American people.
04:48:45.000He has already accomplished more in four weeks than Joe Biden did in four years.
04:48:51.000The tremendous results speak for themselves.
04:48:55.000On day one, President Trump signed hundreds of executive orders securing our border, deporting illegals, unleashing American energy.
04:49:04.000Ending woke DEI policies, lowering prices, increasing accountability, and ushering in a new golden age for the American people.
04:49:13.000President Trump rightfully declared a national emergency at the border and deployed the military, including the 10th Mountain Division from my home district in upstate New York, to secure our nation.
04:49:27.000Thank you to the soldiers and their families for saving our country and protecting our borders.
04:49:40.000President Trump also signed into law the Lakin-Riley Act, the first bill passed by our House Republican majority in Congress.
04:49:50.000President Trump has ended catch and release, restored Remain in Mexico, restarted building the wall, and rightfully declared cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
04:50:06.000President Trump is not only securing our nation, he is rebuilding the broken and failed Biden economy of inflation, malaise, and weakness.
04:50:16.000President Trump is putting America first by demanding fair and reciprocal trade, unleashing American energy independence, cutting regulations, and demanding the government work for we the people as President Trump doges wasteful un-American spending.
04:50:33.000And this is because President Trump knows that a strong, safe and prosperous America at home is a strong America abroad.
04:50:42.000Our economic security, our border security, our energy security is also our national security.
04:50:50.000And the world is watching as President Trump reasserts his America first peace through strength foreign policy.
04:50:58.000And I'm so honored to have been nominated by President Trump to serve in his cabinet as the United States Ambassador to the United Nations as a part of this national security team.
04:51:10.000Our team is already hard at work on behalf of the President and the American people at Turtle Bay as I finish my work to enact his agenda in Congress on behalf of my constituents and the American people.
04:51:23.000When discussing this nomination with President Trump, the President shared with me that he sees great promise in the United Nations if, if, it focuses on its founding mission of international peace and security.
04:51:38.000Just look at President Trump's record of international peace and security in his first term.
04:51:45.000He negotiated the historic Abraham Accords, the largest step to peace in the Middle East in over a quarter of a century.
04:51:53.000President Trump's maximum pressure campaign crippled Iran's capability to threaten instability in the region.
04:52:00.000His administration marked the only time that Putin did not invade another country.
04:52:05.000And there is no question that President Trump is the President of Peace and deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for the historic achievements of his first term alone.
04:52:24.000And now look at what President Trump has already accomplished in just one month.
04:52:28.000He secured the release of six American hostages in Venezuela, two Americans in Afghanistan, an American-Israeli citizen held in Hamas captivity, a Pennsylvania teacher in Russia, and an American citizen in Belarus.
04:52:42.000The world knows that it is only because of President Trump that the innocent hostages, viciously taken by Hamas terrorists, are finally, finally coming home, including those today.
04:52:56.000And President Trump is already effectively working to bring peace to the Russia-Ukraine war to stop the bloodshed.
04:53:11.000He's restored maximum pressure on Iran and re-designated the Houthis as a foreign terrorist organization.
04:53:18.000And the world is watching as every head of state is clamoring to meet with President Trump because the world knows America First is back.
04:53:35.000And at the UN, we are already at work with President Trump delivering results.
04:53:40.000We left the WHO, which covered up the truth about COVID. President Trump terminated the America Last Paris Climate Agreement.
04:53:54.000President Trump rightfully withdrew from the UN Human Rights Council that is a corrupt farce run by the worst abusers on the planet.
04:54:06.000The Trump administration imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court, an illegitimate court fueled by raging antisemitism and anti-Americanism.
04:54:17.000And a top priority that I have worked on in Congress for years, President Trump defunded UNRWA, the pro-Hamas terrorist group that committed atrocities on October 7th.
04:54:33.000And make no mistake, hear it now, as President Trump's United States ambassador to the United Nations, we will not only defund UNRWA, we will dismantle it.
04:54:44.000President Trump also reinstated the Mexico City policy to ensure our hard-earned U.S. taxpayer dollars do not support foreign organizations that perform or promote abortions around the world.
04:55:07.000The U.S. rejoined the Geneva Consensus Declaration to promote and strengthen opportunities for women and girls around the world and to protect the family as the fundamental unit of society.
04:55:25.000And of course, our U.S. embassies have been instructed to fly the beautiful American flag and only our American flag.
04:56:20.000That I will be serving as the United States Ambassador to the United Nations and not the other way around.
04:56:27.000And I will always stand up for the American people, American sovereignty, and our America First values.
04:56:34.000That means I will always defend America's most precious ally, Israel.
04:56:39.000I led the charge to expose the rot of anti-Semitism on college campuses, and I will lead the charge on behalf of President Trump to root out the rot of the true and I will lead the charge on behalf of President Trump to root out the rot of the This past week,
04:57:09.000we continued to see with crystal clarity That our fight to support Israel and eradicate Hamas is a fight between good and evil, light and darkness, life and death.
04:57:22.000The hearts of the world shattered to learn the horrific fate of hostages Oded Lifshitz, Shiri Bibas, and her two precious sons, Kefir and Ariel.
04:57:37.000That Hamas terrorists savagely murdered over 1,200 innocent civilians, including women, children, the elderly, and babies, and took hundreds hostage, committing unspeakable atrocities against humanity on October 7th and thereafter.
04:57:54.000And as we learn more about Hamas's evil murder, leading to this devastating loss of life of these innocent victims, We must be reminded that this must not be Israel's fight alone.
04:58:10.000It will never be Israel's fight alone.
04:58:15.000The absolutely heinous display of Hamas terrorists parading the coffins of murdered Israeli babies and lying about the remains of their mother to the cheers of a barbaric Animalistic pro-Hamas mob is an affront to all of humanity.
04:58:35.000And it has never been more important to show the world's unequivocal support for Israel.
04:58:42.000And it is clear that under President Trump's leadership, America stands steadfast in support of Israel and the Jewish people.
04:58:49.000and we will not rest until every hostage is brought home and Hamas is eradicated.
04:58:56.000At the UN, I will also work with President Trump, I will also
04:59:15.000work with President Trump, Secretary Marco Rubio, Elon Musk and the Secretary Marco Rubio, Elon Musk and the Doge team to ensure every single dollar that we send to the United Nations is in line with the founding mission of actually promoting We will not fund terrorism.
04:59:35.000and we will not fund anti-Americanism.
04:59:38.000The United Nations will hear loudly and clearly that President Trump's America First Peace Through Strength agenda and record of results is back and it is here to stay.
05:00:01.000President Trump has been relentless in pushing for a government that serves the interests of we, the American people, which is why he sent Doge to protect our hard-earned U.S. taxpayer dollars.
05:00:14.000And let's take a moment to talk about DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency.
05:00:18.000This initiative is as common sense and America first as it gets, and yet Democrats and the left mainstream media have spiraled into an utter state of panic, calling President Trump and Elon Musk a threat to democracy, when the truth is...
05:00:36.000Doge is a threat to the swamp's bureaucracy.
05:00:40.000Doge is draining the swamp just like President Trump said he would.
05:01:06.000And we will continue to work together to support the greatest president in the history of our country, President Donald J. Trump, to make America great again.
05:01:16.000Thank you again to all the patriots here at CPAC and across the nation.
05:01:20.000God bless you, God bless President Donald J. Trump, and God bless the United States of America.
05:06:54.000God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining Sea God bless America God bless America
05:07:23.000You all know this Land that I love Stand beside her And guide her Through the night With the light from above From the mountains To the prairies

05:08:18.000Sweet home America America God shed His grace On thee And crown thy good
05:08:42.000With brotherhood From sea to shining To sea To sea America
05:08:57.000It's the greatest country America America America It's the greatest country America God shed His grace
05:09:15.000On thee And His grace And His grace On thee On thee On thee Oh God bless America Oh God bless America Oh God bless America Oh God bless America Oh God bless America Oh God bless America
05:09:42.000Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome CPAC Senior Fellow Mercedes Schlapp and CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp.
05:10:17.000This one's from the heart, men and women of CPAC, and freedom lovers from around the world who are tuning in to this, what the national news media is calling the Conservative United Nations.
05:10:33.000So how appropriate to have our next ambassador to the United Nations here with us today.
05:10:39.000Ten years ago, I had this amazing opportunity.
05:10:45.000To go to Trump Tower and meet with someone who was a hero of mine, Donald Trump in his big, beautiful office at the top of that big, beautiful tower.
05:11:01.000And I thought, he can't run for president.
05:11:03.000He's too inquisitive and intellectual.
05:11:08.000And after that, I remember being on MSNBC and being asked, why?
05:11:15.000Donald Trump would run with all of the slurs that then was put before me on television.
05:11:22.000And I remember in my brain thinking, this is the moment.
05:11:25.000You're either going to start off by criticizing him or you're going to defend him.
05:11:32.000And then this wonderful path started of standing up for this outsider and telling establishment Republicans and establishment conservatives that the old way was broken and it wasn't working.
05:11:48.000And the men and women of CPAC and the students of CPAC welcomed Donald Trump with We've welcomed him 15 times to this stage, more than any other person.
05:12:04.000We've stood on this stage and had the audacity to say that globalism would die.
05:12:11.000And lo and behold, I think it just did.
05:12:16.000And when Donald Trump decided to run for president again, we never listened to the siren songs, when people told us it was time to listen to someone new or take a different when people told us it was time to listen to someone We knew.
05:12:40.000That there was only one man ordained to do this most impossible of jobs.
05:12:47.000And that was verified by the tragedy that occurred in Pennsylvania.
05:12:53.000when Donald Trump got off the ground, stood up, showed us his measure of courage, and told the world that he would and told the world that he would fight.
05:13:15.000For mercy and honor, for mercy in me, this is a great honor.
05:13:20.000We've been doing this for like literally half our marriage.
05:13:23.000It's been the greatest professional and personal privilege of our lives to be a part of the resurgence of America and the defense of freedom.
05:13:35.000And this year, we're so proud to say that because of all of your hard work, America is back on track.
05:13:45.000And at CPAC 2025, it is our honor to present to you your president and freedoms leader, President Donald J. Trump.
05:13:58.000I hope to be an American where at least I know I'm free.
05:14:05.000And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me.
05:14:11.000And I gladly stand up next to you when they met her still today.
05:14:18.000Because there ain't no doubt I love this land.
05:17:27.000The fraudsters, liars, cheaters, globalists, and deep state bureaucrats are being sent packing.
05:17:34.000The illegal alien criminals are being sent home.
05:17:38.000We're draining the swamp and we're restoring government by the people, for the people.
05:17:44.000For years, Washington was controlled by a sinister group of radical left Marxists, warmongers, and corrupt special interests who drained our wealth, attacked our liberties, obliterated our borders, and sucked our country dry, not any longer.
05:18:24.000And we must be doing something right because we've got the highest poll numbers that I've ever had and that any Republican president has ever had.
05:18:34.000And our approval rating is now the highest ever across all demographics.
05:27:05.000With the help of so many incredible supporters here today, we're going to forge a new and lasting political majority that will drive American politics for generations to come.
05:27:16.000I think we're going to do fantastically well in the midterms.
05:27:19.000You know, in theory, the one that wins the presidency does not do well in the midterms, but I think this is going to be a change.
05:31:23.000In addition to the great cabinet secretaries we have here today, we confirmed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to end the woke insanity and rebuild our military.
05:32:18.000Politicalization of our intelligence agencies, we confirmed Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, who is something very respected, highly respected.
05:32:31.000And to make America healthy again, we confirmed Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Great guy.
05:34:16.000On our first day in office, we declared a national emergency at our southern border.
05:34:21.000After years of politicians using our military to defend foreign borders while leaving our country defenseless and helpless, we deployed a group of people, active duty troops, to defend our border and repel the invasion of our country.
05:34:39.000You know, we had a great first term, a really great first term, and I called it an invasion, and we had great numbers, but now we have the best numbers we've ever had.
05:34:52.000That was Tom Holman, Kristi Noem, the whole group.
05:34:57.000When day one I ended the catch and release, I reinstated Remain in Mexico when I signed an order that will end birthright citizenship for the children of illegal aliens.
05:35:10.000Because it wasn't meant for these children.
05:35:15.000It wasn't meant for people that escaped or invaded, came into our country illegally.
05:35:21.000It was meant for the children of slaves.
05:35:24.000Because when it was done, many, many years ago, it was during a very tough period in this country's history.
05:35:33.000And that was meant for the children of slaves.
05:35:36.000I wish people would understand that so they could...
05:37:30.000The great Dana White, he has a fight, and one guy's doing really badly, so when they take him out, they put another guy in the fight, the same guy that's...
05:39:18.000Unions like her, and labor likes her, and a lot of people like her, and she's very solid, very strong, and she's going to do the right thing.
05:39:35.000We had tremendous support, so I think it's nice to give them a person in the center, because that's what she's going to be very good, I think.
05:39:45.000A lot of people say, why'd you do that?
05:39:47.000I said, because I want to do something nice for these people that voted for me.
05:39:51.000Oh, gee, what a great political move that was.
05:39:54.000Now they're all saying, what a great political move.
05:40:05.000Over the past few weeks, we've begun the largest deportation and operation in American history, larger even than that of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, a very moderate man, but he was very strong in that.
05:40:17.000He didn't like people running into our country and taking over our country.
05:40:35.000Watching these people come in from jails and mental institutions and the worst criminals in the street, gang members being dropped off in buses and bused into our country, I couldn't stand it!
05:40:50.000So I said, I'm going to run for president again.
05:41:34.000We're liberating communities like Aurora, Colorado and Springfield, Ohio, that have been occupied by illegal alien criminals from all over the world.
05:41:47.000We're rescuing the Americans whose jobs have been stolen, whose wages have been robbed, and whose way of life has been absolutely destroyed.
05:41:58.000And under the Trump administration, our country will not be turned into a dumping ground.
05:43:20.000We have a lot to stick together for because what we've done has never been done before.
05:43:24.000Nobody's ever seen anything like this.
05:43:26.000And nobody's ever seen four weeks like we've had.
05:43:29.000Especially the four weeks, the first four weeks.
05:43:32.000You know, that's like if you golf, when you sink that first four-footer in the first hole, it gives you confidence in the next hole, you sink another one.
05:43:40.000Now you go into that third hole and you can't, and by the time you get to the fifth hole, you feel you can't miss, right?
05:43:45.000Like a baseball player, he gets up and he hits that first one, and then the second at bat, he hits that one.
05:50:00.000And you see these Venezuelan planes loaded up with some real nice people.
05:50:04.000You wouldn't have wanted to be the pilot on any of those planes.
05:50:09.000But they know we're not playing games.
05:50:11.000And just this week, I officially designated bloodthirsty cartels and murderous gangs as foreign terrorist organizations, something which Biden didn't want to do and nobody wanted to do.
05:52:02.000Before long years, you had a president who put illegal aliens up in penthouse suites and beautiful hotels on Park Avenue, on Madison Avenue, on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
05:52:14.000Now you have a president who is stamping their ticket to Gitmo.
05:52:18.000What a one-way trip back to the places from which they came.
05:53:49.000To crush inflation by slashing spending, I imposed an immediate federal hiring freeze, a federal regulation freeze, and a foreign aid freeze were given to countries that hate us.
05:54:01.000We're giving billions and billions of dollars to countries that hate us.
05:54:06.000And I signed an order creating the Department of Government Efficiency.
05:55:06.000Here are some of the flagrant scams that, as an example, they've spent money on and we've been able to recapture for a large dose of it at least.
05:59:02.000Look, let's assume that people, generally speaking, in our case and everybody in this room, we're going to all live way over 100, but this is a little ridiculous because not too many people are going over 100. Everybody hopefully in this room will.
05:59:16.000But there are in the social security ranks and files.
05:59:20.000And what we're doing now is finding out, do they get paid?
06:02:44.000And under the buyouts, we offered federal employees more than 75,000 federal bureaucrats, think of that, have voluntarily agreed to surrender their taxpayer-funded jobs.
06:02:56.000We want to make governments smaller, more efficient.
06:02:58.000We want to keep the best people, and we're not going to keep the worst people.
06:03:04.000And you know, we're doing another thing.
06:03:05.000If they don't report for work, we're firing them.
06:03:08.000In other words, you have to go to office.
06:10:58.000All of those beautiful golden towers that are a thousand years old, they're lying on the ground and smithereens, blown to smithereens, there's nothing left of them.
06:11:07.000They're just lying on the ground, never to be rebuilt again, not possible to rebuild them again.
06:11:43.000We brought them down, as you know, from close to 40% down to 21%.
06:11:48.000Now we're bringing them down to 15% if you make your product in the United States of America.
06:11:56.000We're defending the American worker like never before, and that's why the autoworkers and the union workers and the Teamsters and so many others, they supported us, the firemen, the policemen.
06:12:08.000So many others, whether they were union or non-union, they all supported us.
06:12:58.000I always say it's my favorite word in the dictionary.
06:13:01.000The word tariff is my favorite word in the dictionary.
06:13:04.000You know, we were richest, the richest relatively, from, think of this, from 1870 to 1913. That was our richest, because we collected tariffs from foreign countries that came in and took our jobs and took our money, took our everything.
06:13:21.000But they charged tariffs, and we had so much money, they set up the 1887. Think of that a long time ago.
06:16:25.000We give them billions of dollars, and we gave them our military equipment.
06:16:30.000Just tremendous numbers of billions of dollars worth of military, billions and billions.
06:16:35.000We have a ceasefire in Gaza, and we're joined today by several survivors of the captivity under Hamas, including Noah Argumani and Ilana Gretowski.
06:17:50.000Also with us are family members of some individuals who are still hostages, and we will not rest until all of the hostages have been returned back home.
06:18:00.000Some of them are coming home in very bad condition, and some of them are coming home only as bodies.
06:21:17.000I think we've turned the heads of even the people that, if you can believe they're believers, I don't know if they were, but I believe that it's all gone.
06:21:27.000And I've directed the reinstatement of any service member who was expelled from the armed forces due to the COVID vaccine mandate.
06:21:34.000They will be returned to their former rank with full back pay.
06:22:28.000I ended Joe Biden's weaponization as soon as I got in.
06:22:32.000I said, I'm going to hit him with the same stuff.
06:22:35.000But I ended his whole weaponization of our government and removed his handpicked radical left Marxist prosecutors from the Department of Justice.
06:22:53.000I pardon hundreds and hundreds of Biden's political prisoners, including Christians, pro-life activists, and the J6 hostages who were treated terribly for years.
06:23:05.000We even got rid of people like Pete Buttigieg.
06:23:20.000Who did the worst job of anybody in the history of transportation.
06:23:27.000I revoked the security clearances of Anthony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, John Brennan, James Clapper, and every non-patriot who lied to cover up Hunter Biden's laptop from hell.
06:23:42.000We took away their security clearances.
06:23:48.000And they're not allowed to enter any government building either.
06:23:52.000I also revoked Joe Biden's security clearances, the Biden crime family security clearances, and they'll no longer be allowed to access state secrets while selling themselves all around the world.
06:24:13.000Because this should never be allowed to happen again.
06:24:16.000What happened to me in this administration, what happened on J6, what happened on all of the things they did that were so bad should never, ever be allowed to happen again.
06:24:28.000And on a friendlier note, I renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.
06:24:34.000And we are restoring the name of a great president, William McKinley, to Mount McKinley in Alaska.
06:26:34.000We're going to take back the Panama Canal.
06:26:43.000In a matter of weeks, we have restored America's pride, America's confidence, and America's According to a brand new poll from Rasmussen, the number of Americans who believe we are on the right track now exceeds the number who think we're on the wrong track.
06:27:13.000I guess it depends on who, but that one poll, because Rasmussen's been a good poll, first time in over 20 years that we've had a positive number on that.
06:28:37.000You know, when it comes to a day where you can't challenge crooked elections, we've got a real problem in this country.
06:28:43.000And as of January 20th, 2025, the dark days of high taxes, crushing regulations, rampant inflation, flagrant corruption, government weaponization, and total incompetence.
