00:00:00.000hello everybody and welcome to the great america show it's great to have you with us on yet another
00:00:06.900beautiful day in america happy monday we're live tonight for the great america show let us know
00:00:10.600where you're tuned in from um drop it in the comments and we're happy to have you on a live
00:00:16.180episode of the great america show i hope you all had a great weekend so it was an interesting uh
00:00:21.320weekend i guess to say the least uh for america for iran uh as the clock is once again uh tick
00:00:29.040Tiktoking. The clock is Tiktoking, not for America, but it's Tiktoking for Iran. So what
00:00:36.860happened over the weekend? Now, there was a high stakes confrontation, and there has been over the
00:00:42.100control of the Strait of Hormuz between America and the Islamist Iranian regime. And they took
00:00:47.660another step over the weekend to escalate the ladder up on Sunday afternoon with the U.S. seizing
00:00:53.680an inbound Iranian-flagged cargo ship in the Gulf of Oman that tried to run past the blockade
00:01:00.340that was established last week by President Trump following the short, and I mean hours-long
00:01:05.620short, ceasefire agreement in order to pressure regime into agreeing to President Trump and
00:01:11.460America's terms for peace. President Trump said in a Truth Social post on Sunday that the Navy
00:01:17.020stopped the ship by blowing a hole in the engine room and that the Marines were able to take
00:01:22.700control over the ship. Now, the seas came just a day after Iran fired on ships trying to exit
00:01:28.260through the Strait of Hormuz. In recent days, the Iranian regime has sent conflicting signals to
00:01:33.080whether the Strait is open or closed. The Iranian foreign minister declared that the Strait was open
00:01:38.000on Friday night, but the IRGC declared that the Strait was closed on Saturday. The U.S. blockade
00:01:43.380applies to only ships entering and leaving the Iranian ports. Everyone else is fine and good to
00:01:49.920go. Now, negotiations between the U.S. and Iran were scheduled to resume in
00:01:53.680Pakistan this week. Iran is saying on Sunday night that it would not send a
00:01:57.540delegation while the U.S. went back and forth over to whether J.D. Vance or
00:02:04.680their delegation was going to be sent. Now, the ceasefire is two weeks long,
00:02:09.660and it's set to expire Wednesday. A report by Saudi journalists said the
00:02:15.200delegation from Iran arrived in Islamabad, Pakistan on Sunday, but it's unclear
00:02:19.240if they're actually going to meet with them or if they have any plans whatsoever to bring a
00:02:30.100ceasefire. It seems that Iran, what they've been trying to do this whole entire time,0.78
00:02:35.240was just simply run out the clock, run out the clock on President Trump, run out the clock and0.59
00:02:39.500sort of force pressure on Congress and force pressure on President Trump from Congress for
00:02:46.480them to make some sort of deal. Now, the deal would be made here in America, not a deal made
00:02:52.420involving Iran. So we'll see what our politicians are set to do. Now, Iran is not happy about the
00:02:59.740hole that was blown in the side of their Iranian ship. So they're now vowing to retaliate against
00:03:08.140America because they called it armed piracy is what they're calling it, what America did to them.
00:03:14.180Now, let's just talk for a second and think for a second what President Trump has decided to do here with this blockade and how utterly brilliant it is.
00:03:24.100He literally hit Iran with the Uno reverse card because Iran's been playing games with the straight from day one.0.73
00:03:30.920It's the only leverage point they have as we've taken out just about everything else they have.0.96
00:03:35.200The only leverage point is controlling the straight.
00:03:37.740That's not even theirs to control.0.88
00:03:39.200And it makes no sense that the folks on the other side of the Gulf of Qatar or Saudi Arabia or UAE have allowed them to do this because it's just equally as theirs as it is Iran's.1.00
00:03:57.780It's literally like the city between Italy and the coast of Croatia and Italy and Albania and Montenegro and every country up the coast in the Mediterranean.1.00
00:04:12.520They use their side and they use their side.0.95
00:04:14.560But the Iranian terrorists have decided that it's their duty, that it's their position, that they own the strait.0.95
00:04:21.260And I think now they're going to learn the hard way because that ceasefire, which doesn't seem President Trump cares to renew anymore, as he's tweeted out over the weekend saying, continuing to say he's going to level Iran.0.96
00:04:35.960He's going to level the entire country.
00:04:37.540And it's the same rhetoric we heard from President Trump the first time, which got everyone from Tucker Carlson to Alex Jones to Megyn Kelly going absolutely berserk.
00:04:47.620So he doesn't seem like he cares this time around if a deal is made.
00:04:54.240I think he sees it just as easy to go in there and finish the job.0.64
00:05:03.840So, you know, as we said from the beginning here, this is on Iran to figure out if they want to exist as a country,0.81
00:05:14.340be able to function as a normal country in society,0.67
00:05:18.620be able to take part in civilization like a normal country,
00:05:44.340They either want to die standing up or cease to exist at all.
00:05:52.960And I think this time around, President Trump is going to do that favor for them.
00:05:59.420Because how many ceasefires are you supposed to have with this radical regime and radical ideology?
00:06:08.620How many chances are you supposed to give them to come to the table?
00:06:17.100How many times are you supposed to extend to give them another chance?
00:06:24.380And as I've said, I think President Trump's patience has really started to wear thin, as with any normal person.
00:06:36.200Now, the leftists have been, I guess, kind of quiet on this because they've got problems of their own over in the House of Representatives.
00:06:43.160And we're going to talk about that today and so much more.
00:06:47.420I mean, we've got so much to talk about today of stuff that happened over the weekend.
00:06:53.580Vladimir Zelensky is out in the news again.
00:06:58.160We've got some new anchor baby data, which you folks are not going to be happy about from Pew Research.
00:07:05.260We've got the Federal Appeals Court overturning once again the Trump ballroom construction.
00:07:12.060We've got the House Ethics Committee releasing another list of folks who have been under investigation.
00:07:18.680We've got 250 journalists signing a demand letter to protest against President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner forcefully.
00:07:28.700Kash Patel suing the Atlantic for $250 million.
00:07:33.320Joe Genova being sworn in this afternoon in Florida.
00:07:38.180Kamala Harris, we're going to talk about her right now.
00:07:42.300We've got so much more to talk about here today,
00:07:45.340but I just wanted to get started with Iran.
00:07:49.680As it's tick-tock and the clock is running out0.97
00:07:52.460and the clock is running on these folks.
00:07:55.120So Kamala Harris, she's back as much as we don't want to see her,
00:07:59.900but I guess we've got to look forward to her
00:08:01.320because she's most likely going to be running for president in 2028 unless she decides to run for governor in California,0.99
00:08:10.460to which if I'm advising Kamala Harris, I know she has these aspirations to be president of the United States.1.00
00:08:16.820But she's an absolute shoo-in for governor of California.1.00
00:08:20.460I mean, she'd walk right into that race and win it hands down for the Democrats.1.00
00:11:46.280So Vladimir Zelensky is back in the headlines, folks.
00:11:50.360What could good old Vladimir Zelensky want now?
00:11:53.980Well, The Atlantic, who we're going to tell you what they did to Cash Patel over the weekend.
00:11:58.820But The Atlantic is out with a new piece.
00:12:02.920And they say, Kiev appears, and this is quoted from them,
00:12:06.300Kiev appears to have given up on the United States.
00:12:08.580It's aggressively seeking new diplomatic and military partners, for instance, by sharing its hard-won, expensive, in-drone warfare with Saudi Arabia and Qatar and the United Arab Emirates and foregoing arms production agreement with Germany.
00:12:24.920Ukraine has sent drones to attack oil export facilities near St. Petersburg, deep inside enemy territory, in defiance of what Zelensky calls signals from unspecified partners to avoid striking Russian energy infrastructure.
00:12:38.580Using language that would until recently have been unthinkable,
00:12:42.420Zelensky has indicated that he no longer views the United States
00:20:41.900So they're saying Patel has a drinking problem. They go on the article to say that Patel and some of the FBI officials have to have battering. This sounds absolutely absurd, battering equipment nearby, like to break down a door nearby Patel's office, which I've never heard of this before, by the way.
00:21:03.980Never heard of it happening before, but nearby Patel's office in case they ever have to break down the door because Cash Patel is unresponsive.
00:21:28.960Now, this comes, it looks like, from the same playbook that they ran against Brett Kavanaugh.
00:21:39.660Having a few beers with your friends on the weekend doesn't make you an alcoholic, doesn't mean you have a drinking problem.
00:21:47.740But I guess apparently to the left, who, I mean, far bigger issues, as we just saw, Eric Swalwell has allegedly spent thousands of dollars on alcohol delivery from his campaign.
00:22:06.100I guess in their eyes, they have to somehow justify that they've protected their own party and protected their people.
00:22:14.720You remember Madison Cawthorn came out and said that they had these drug sex-fueled orgies to which he had to leave Congress after, exposing it.
00:22:28.160And we see it now in this report that has come out from the House Ethics Committee of some of the investigations that they've done over the course of their committee.
00:23:09.020The House Ethics Committee released a public list of investigative matters
00:23:13.300involving sexual misconduct by members of Congress amid Swalwell's scandal.
00:23:18.240They wanted to say they've reviewed 20 matters involving allegations of sexual misconduct
00:23:21.960by members of Congress in the last decade, to which they have the list.
00:23:26.280Most recently, Eric Swalwell, sexual misconduct, including a staffer.
00:23:32.540Same thing with Tony Gonzalez, sexual relationship with the staffer.
00:23:36.400And you see the outcome, loss of jurisdiction.
00:23:39.800You folks could probably figure out why that was, because they resigned from Congress
00:23:43.940before there can be any sort of official report on it.
00:23:50.040You know, not the same thing they afforded Matt Gaetz when he resigned.
00:23:56.280Corey Mills, sexual misconduct and dating violence, an ongoing investigation to which they want to remove him before the investigation is complete.
00:24:08.600And if these people were found to be in violation of it, they should be expelled from Congress, removed from Congress, and taken away all government-funded benefits.
00:24:18.700But afford the Republicans the same benefits that the Democrats have.
00:24:28.500Matt Gaetz, sexual misconduct, the minor solicitation of prostitution,
00:24:32.000to which they found public report finding sexual misconduct violations.
00:24:36.420George Santos, sexual harassment of a staffer.
00:24:38.800They say public report with no sexual misconduct violations.
00:24:42.560Santos was removed before, I guess, this was revealed.
00:24:47.940Madison Cawthorn, 2022, improper relationship with the staffer.
00:24:50.940Public report with no sexual misconduct violations.
00:24:54.920Michael F. San Nicolas, sexual relationship with the staffer, same thing.
00:24:59.360Public report with no sexual misconduct violations.
00:25:03.060Tom Reed, sexual harassment of a lobbyist, loss of jurisdiction because he seemingly resigned before.
00:25:12.960Katie Hill, sexual relationship with the staffer, loss of jurisdiction.
00:25:17.100And it goes on and on of people who are able to resign before they can do it.0.97
00:25:29.220Now, this rule needs to be changed for sure.
00:25:33.560The fact of doing an investigation, spending all this time on an investigation, and then not releasing the public findings after wasting all your time on this investigation because that congressman or congresswoman decides to resign.
00:25:47.100I mean, where's the fiscal responsibility of putting time and money into these investigations and then letting these people resign when it comes up to the 11th hour and they're tipped off by one of their pals on that ethics committee that, hey, listen, we found out that you're a serial sex offender.
00:26:12.840We find out that you slept with a lobbyist.0.68
00:26:15.020we found out you were sleeping with some lady named fang fang who's a chinese spy0.99
00:26:20.100oh we found out you slept with your your staffer who lit herself on fire to kill herself after the0.98
00:26:27.140affair that she had on her husband and you had on your wife and kids
00:26:30.280but we dump all this money into it to then just come with the same outcome0.99
00:26:36.660there's no doubt congress is a cesspool of garbage i mean you got some of the0.99
00:27:28.780Lou famously called him the senator from Mumbai because of his stance on H-1B visas and wanting to import people.
00:27:34.720And now to Mike Lee's credit, Mike has taken a total 180, and it was so funny.0.99
00:27:39.400And I think towards the end of his life, Lee started, I think, seeing more eye to eye with Lou, understanding where Lou was coming from about the threat to the H-1B visa program, the threat to the American people of jobs being stolen by immigrants coming over here.0.97
00:28:01.080it's just funny to see over the you know over the course of history how that's changed so let's0.95
00:28:09.060talk about some troubling news some troubling data that's come out nearly 10 percent of all
00:28:16.620babies born in the united states in 2023 were to mothers who were either illegal aliens or holding
00:28:23.360temporary legal status, according to new data released by the
00:29:50.260In 1990, births to unauthorized immigrants and their mothers
00:29:54.720were about 3% of the 4.1 million births in the U.S. that year.
00:29:59.860In 2006, these births were about 9% of the total.
00:30:04.440And between 2006 and 2019, the annual number of births
00:30:07.620to unauthorized illegal alien mothers dropped by more than 40% to 215,000.
00:30:15.240So this is a problem, folks. This is a problem. And this is the path that America is now going down by allowing millions and tens of millions of illegal aliens to come into this country and birth their children.
00:31:50.340But that's our press that says they don't have the freedom of the press, you know, like
00:31:55.760the press that failed to report on the Hunter Biden laptop, lied about it for years.
00:32:02.860Yeah, that same press. Same press that failed to report on Eric Swalwell being a total weirdo for years. But they're coming out now. Bill Maher, who's had Swalwell on his show many times, had this to say about Mr. Eric Swalwell.
00:34:42.720had initially blocked the construction of Mark,
00:34:44.900citing the lack of congressional authorization.
00:34:47.640He later permitted it under a limited underground work tied to national security, provided it did not determine the final scale of the ballroom.
00:34:56.280The Trump administration argued that halting the construction posed grave national security harms to the White House, the president, and the staff.
00:35:03.500In granting the stay of the appeals court, said that the move was intended to give the judges time to review the administration's emergency appeal.
00:35:11.580The court emphasized that the decision does not amount to a final ruling on the merits of the case.
00:35:15.620The next hearing is scheduled for June 15th.
00:35:20.720You build something underground, some sort of bunker, some sort of national security case,
00:35:25.160and you hit the Dems with the UNO reverse card.
00:35:29.060Some great news, folks, out of Florida today.
00:35:31.440Joe DeGeneva, the former U.S. attorney under Reagan,
00:35:35.600will oversee the Spygate probe in Florida after the DOJ removed the deep state prosecutor
00:35:40.640who was stonewalling the slow-walking charges against John Brennan.
00:35:44.140The Justice Department on Friday removed Maria Medetis, a career federal prosecutor, who was slow walking those charges against Brennan.
00:35:51.720Former CIA Director Brennan is the target of a grand jury investigation in the Russiagate case down in South Florida.
00:36:00.040We wish Joe DeGeneva the best, a good friend of the great Lou Dobbs, and I've had the pleasure and honor of having dinner with Joe DeGeneva and his wife, Victoria Tenzing, in D.C. a few times.
00:36:11.760and I think he's best cut out for the job,
00:36:14.680and I think he's going to do a terrific job
00:36:16.520and bring us truth, justice, and the American way
00:36:19.660because that's what Americans are yearning for.
