00:00:29.600 know more importantly uh where you're tuned in from tonight listening to us on the great america
00:00:34.220 show so president trump uh the left and the mainstream media and the rhinos have been trying
00:00:40.700 to drive this wedge between jd vance and uh and donald trump now for the last it seems month or
00:00:47.180 so jd vance hasn't been having it and president trump as well hasn't been having it as a matter
00:00:52.420 of fact to further show it's not true president trump today announcing a new task force to which
00:00:59.060 J.D. Vance is the head of. Take a listen. Of fraud in federally funded programs in states like
00:01:05.800 Minnesota and California. This executive order in front of you will establish a new task force
00:01:12.400 aimed at rooting out that fraud, returning potentially billions or tens of billions or
00:01:17.000 even hundreds of billions of dollars to the American taxpayer. This task force will be chaired
00:01:21.680 by the vice president. The vice chairman will be the head of the FTC, Andrew Ferguson,
00:01:27.220 who's with us here as well today. But this is going to launch a whole-of-government approach
00:01:32.020 to rooting out the very serious problem of fraud in federally funded programs around the country.
00:01:38.360 As an example, you know, you've been seeing it, and seeing it pretty big in Minnesota,
00:01:43.980 $19 billion. But that's only for one little aspect of the fraud. It's $19 billion,
00:01:50.700 and California, as they say, is 10 times worse than other states are. And this is not a,
00:01:57.220 Republican-Democrat thing. This is wherever it's taking place. It seems that it's usually in blue
00:02:04.740 states. If it's in a red state, we're going there, too. But it seems that it's heavily, heavily,
00:02:10.680 heavily Democrat. And what they've done is so sad. When you look at the Minnesota scam.
00:02:18.700 The Minnesota-Somali scam, which we still have no answers to. Hopefully, J.D. Vance 1.00
00:02:24.000 is going to be the one to get us those answers because they're answers that are much deserved
00:02:28.340 and much warranted. We're American citizens. We pay our taxes. We try to be upstanding citizens.
00:02:34.440 So tell us what the heck is going on here. I want to bring in our guest today, folks,
00:02:38.600 as mentioned, friend of mine, friend of the show, host of The Stephen Gardner Show,
00:02:42.580 Stephen Gardner. Steve, delight to have you with us on kicking off our Monday here on The Great
00:02:47.320 American Show. Let's start with first the Somali fraud. It's been a few months since Nick Shirley 0.99
00:02:53.020 took that on. We still don't know anything about it. As far as we're concerned, they're hiding all
00:02:59.060 the evidence in Minnesota under Tim Waltz. President Trump finally today taking matters
00:03:03.900 into his own hand, appointing, I don't think anyone better, J.D. Vance, to head up a fraud
00:03:08.300 operation. Isn't this amazing? I think it's great. This is one of the no stone unturned promises of
00:03:17.100 making America great again. You know, we thought the fraud was bad. Now we're realizing it's a
00:03:22.860 hundred times worse than any of us imagined. And, you know, for me, as someone who pays a lot in
00:03:29.460 taxes, I don't want my money being stolen. I don't want my money going to illegal immigrants. 1.00
00:03:34.680 I don't want my money going to terrorism, to fake daycares, why people babysit their own children.
00:03:41.660 No, no, no. I want it to go towards good schooling. I want it to go towards making sure everybody's
00:03:47.440 fed, that our roads are clean, that our cities are safe. So for me, this is a big deal. I actually
00:03:54.300 think that this might be the key to one of the midterm wins is showing the American people, 0.89
00:04:01.100 we're not going to put up with any more crap and we're not going to let anyone steal your money 0.92
00:04:05.320 anymore. Yeah, I think it is time now for the Republicans to show the wins. You and I talk 0.99
00:04:12.100 about it very often on this show and on your show as well. They've got to show some wins because
00:04:17.560 they've got to let the American people know when they go to the to the polls to vote come November.
00:04:22.760 Listen, this is what we've done for the American people. This is what we're going to continue to
00:04:26.180 do for the American people. And if they can't do that, how can they tell the American people to
00:04:31.140 trust us? We're out of the era, I think now, Stephen, with President Trump showing how much
00:04:36.580 can be done in so short of a period of time, whether it be his first four years in office
00:04:40.680 or now his first year in office, President Trump shows that we're not in the era of trust me, bro.
00:04:46.160 You know, people want to see results. The American people expect results.
00:04:50.180 And it's to no other doing that than Donald Trump, who's shown it's possible to get things done in this bureaucracy that we're in.
00:05:00.600 Yeah, for far too long, the Republicans, they've been OK being second seat.
00:05:05.960 Hey, as long as we get to collect our paychecks, you know, we'll push through what we can.
00:05:11.700 We'll try to keep the dam back, the Democrat dam. 0.96
00:05:15.360 But no, President Trump is now showing, listen, if you guys show up, think outside the box
00:05:21.480 and work hard, you can actually do a lot of good in a short period of time.
00:05:26.500 Listen, like he said in that video, if there's fraud in red states, we got to get rid of
00:05:31.140 that too.
00:05:31.620 But what we're finding is sanctuary cities. They've got bloated budgets. They've got fraud coming out their ears. No more. The American people, you have pulled back the curtain. We know what's behind there. We now want it all gone.
00:05:45.080 Yeah, and I trust and I believe President Trump when he says that.
00:05:49.220 I mean, you watch them send in the units into Tennessee, which is run by the Republicans into I guess it was Memphis.
00:05:57.520 I believe that he sent in in the National Guard and the the agencies into you watch them send it into Louisiana.
00:06:04.840 I was in New Orleans this past year for Mardi Gras.
00:06:08.440 Steve, I got to be honest with you.
00:06:10.100 I've never seen Bourbon Street so locked down.
00:06:14.200 I mean, there was no entry point on Bourbon Street where you can get on it, where you didn't get past the Army National Guard to have your book bag searched.
00:06:22.300 And I think it was minimal crime this year.
00:06:24.340 Last year or two years ago, we had a terrorist drive down the street, run people over.
00:06:29.100 So he's not shying away from exposing Republicans.
00:06:32.920 As a matter of fact, I think Donald Trump has probably exposed more Republicans than Democrats in his term, which is, I think, a good thing because Republicans he can control.
00:06:42.260 The Democrats are just rogue agents. So he's shown that he's not shy and, you know, he'll continue to do so.
00:06:51.260 I want to turn to the war in Iran, which President Trump says that Iran wants to make a deal.
00:06:57.600 And he says they're going to be wrapping it up very shortly. But this is worth the price to pay.
00:07:04.120 Let's take a listen in.
00:07:04.920 it'll be soon won't be alone and we're gonna have a much safer world when it's wrapped up
00:07:12.260 it'll be wrapped up soon we're gonna have a much safer world i had an obligation to do this i
00:07:19.360 didn't want to i go to an excursion i don't want to make this journey and we had the highest stock
00:07:25.520 market in history we had low gas prices everything was good and i know exactly i know what you're
00:07:31.760 to do it and people are going to raise the price of oil and that's it but but i know that but that's
00:07:37.260 a very small thing compared to allowing them to have you want to see a stock market go down
00:07:42.320 start letting them hit you with nukes okay uh i i think i said it this morning i think it's a very
00:07:51.100 small price to pay and frankly i thought it was going to go down much more if you want to know
00:07:56.520 i assumed that it was going to go down much more only because people don't understand to a large
00:08:01.440 It's a great, it's a big chess game at a very high level.
00:08:05.020 It's a very high level chess, the highest.
00:08:07.720 And I'm dealing with very smart players.
00:08:09.580 These are smart people.
00:08:10.360 They don't get there.
00:08:11.580 You know, when you deal with some of these people, you're dealing with high level intellect,
00:08:18.980 high, very high IQ people.
00:08:21.780 These are not Jasmine Crockett and her group.
00:08:25.100 These are smart people.
00:08:26.200 These are really smart people.
00:08:27.280 And violent people and vicious people and some very nice people.
00:08:30.260 and some are very nice but violent
00:08:32.820 they turn violent
00:08:34.220 but you know what if I didn't do
00:08:36.560 if I didn't do what I did
00:08:38.440 we would have been hit
00:08:40.660 number one
00:08:41.720 very important was the termination of
00:08:44.840 Obama's horrible deal
00:08:46.240 and number two
00:08:47.680 this beautiful plane hitting them
00:08:50.040 eight months ago whatever it was
00:08:52.460 and taking out their nuclear capacity
00:08:54.740 that totally
00:08:55.900 threw them for a loop
00:08:57.840 So if they had that bomb at either time, five years ago or seven months ago,
00:09:06.160 if they had that bomb, that bomb would have been used almost immediately.
00:09:11.460 Steve, let's talk about first that Democrats want to use gas prices, right?
00:09:16.520 We didn't hear about gas prices for the last four years when we all suffered.
00:09:19.840 I go to gas up my Jeep Wrangler that's got a really small gas tank in it probably once a week.
00:09:25.900 Usually it's 50, 55 bucks.
00:09:27.960 I gassed up last week.
00:09:29.020 It was like 62 bucks.
00:09:30.380 OK, so an extra seven bucks.
00:09:31.900 Yeah, I'm not happy about it.
00:09:33.320 But guess what?
00:09:33.940 I was paying that extra seven to 15 bucks extra for the last four years under Joe Biden.
00:09:39.540 And you know what?
00:09:40.280 I dealt with it then.
00:09:41.300 The people that are crying about it now for the last month, it's not even been a month.
00:09:46.460 I mean, give me a break, please.
00:09:49.680 Yeah, think about this.
00:09:51.380 President Trump had just come off of the State of the Union.
00:09:54.280 The stock market was at an all time high. Gas was the lowest it had been in a while. Rent down for like 10 months in a row. Mortgage rates coming down, food coming down. And then he's presented with this problem. And it wasn't just any kind of small problem.
00:10:11.740 It was the potential for nuclear weapons attached to intercontinental ballistic missiles.
00:10:18.980 We're not we're not talking about an airplane that needs to drop a bomb, an atom bomb the size of a VW bus.
00:10:26.880 We're talking about missiles that can deliver a payload to our enemies.
00:10:33.400 Right. And I'm not going to lie.
00:10:34.960 I went through this evolution over the last couple of days where I was like, OK, I don't like this, but I trust Trump.
00:10:40.900 Then I started watching some of the other people and there's like, oh, we've been down this road.
00:10:46.360 Weapons of mass destruction. I thought, oh, gosh, maybe we're being lied to.
00:10:51.100 But then I go back, I look at what Jared Kushner and Steve Whitcoff are saying, and they're saying, listen, they're openly bragging to us about having enough for 10 or 11 payloads.
00:11:01.920 But this was this was the kicker for me, John. On Friday, a phone call between Vladimir Putin and President Trump was released in there.
00:11:13.060 Putin basically acknowledges that they had the enriched uranium and that they had enough to deliver 10 or 11 payloads.
00:11:21.560 I gosh. Oh, my gosh. You've got Russia, a nuclear country, admitting, yeah, they have them.
00:11:28.640 And then he offers the president of the United States. Hey, we're Russia. We've got a bunch of nukes. We know how to store this radioactive material. Let us take it. President Trump says, no, no, no. For me, that's when I was like, oh, my gosh. OK, this is not kindergartners in the sandbox having a fight anymore.
00:11:47.720 This is the ability to take out Saudi Arabia, Israel, Europe, the United States. 0.97
00:11:53.900 So for me, all of a sudden, this was like DEFCON 2, and I'm going, this is really, really important.
00:11:59.940 President Trump just risked his entire legacy to make America safe again.
00:12:04.560 That's my thoughts.
00:12:05.780 What people don't realize, too, and I don't mean people.
00:12:08.520 People who are joining us now are considered intellectual people because they're tuned to the show.
00:12:14.660 the people i'm talking about are the these far left marxist leftists and these rhinos what they 0.99
00:12:20.120 don't realize is what they're saying oh well they don't have them yet but what they don't realize
00:12:26.440 is the fine line between 60 enriched uranium and actually developing that weapon is a month long
00:12:32.420 to a two month long period it's a very very short timeline to which they can have them that's not
00:12:37.860 even an argument that anyone can have steve we're up against a break here so i want to take this
00:12:41.960 quick break. When we come back, I want to talk about this wedge, this rift that the mainstream
00:12:47.160 media and the rhinos are trying to drive between President Trump and J.D. Vance. Is it real? Is
00:12:53.080 it fake? We're going to talk about it on the other side of this quick break. If you're joining us on
00:12:56.840 YouTube or Rumble, folks, please be sure to hit the like, subscribe and follow button. We're coming
00:12:59.940 right back. Thanks, everybody, for staying with us. We're joined live tonight on The Great America
00:13:09.780 show by my friend and host of the Stephen Gardner show, Stephen Gardner. Steve, I want to talk about
00:13:15.100 this little riff that the media has reportedly been cooking up between J.D. Vance and President
00:13:22.220 Trump. J.D. Vance looked right in the reporter's eyes today and addressed it to his face.
00:13:26.360 I know what you're trying to do, Phil. You're trying to drive a wedge between
00:13:29.680 members of the administration, between me and the president. What the president said
00:13:34.160 consistently going back to 2015, and I agreed with him, is that Iran should not have a nuclear
00:13:38.900 weapon. We have taken this military action under the President's leadership. I think
00:13:42.860 all of us, whether you're a Democrat or Republican, should pray for success and pray
00:13:46.940 for the safety of our troops. That's the approach that I've taken. Make it as successful
00:13:50.840 as possible. So there's no hesitation, given your past statements
00:13:55.040 with the current operation? What do you mean there's no hesitation
00:13:58.860 with my past statements? Given your skepticism or adventurism, you were
00:14:03.000 a critic of the global war on terror previously. Well, I think one big
00:14:06.860 difference, Phil, is that we have a smart president, whereas in the past we've had dumb 0.99
00:14:10.260 presidents. And I trust President Trump to get the job done, to do a good job for the American 0.96
00:14:14.420 people, and to make sure that the mistakes of the past aren't repeated. Absolutely.
00:14:18.300 Tell me, Stephen, is the rift real? Is it fake? Is it just a drawn up media narrative in order to
00:14:25.100 try to destabilize the cabinet and the Trump administration like we haven't seen that done
00:14:29.860 before? Yeah, I think they would absolutely love to create a rift, get him to say something
00:14:36.580 that would make President Trump lean back and say, wait a minute, we've got to have a private
00:14:40.400 conversation. I think J.D. Vance has differing opinions, Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth. At the end
00:14:47.800 of the day, they come together and they say, what is the best thing for the American people?
00:14:54.280 And then they have acted. Again, none of this has been helpful to them, but I think we're going to
00:15:00.200 look back and we're going to praise their courage for stepping forward and taking Iran back about 1.00
00:15:07.600 20 years in their military capability. So I do not believe that the rift is real. The other reason
00:15:14.220 they need this rift is they're going to try to impeach Donald Trump next year, right? They're
00:15:19.220 probably going to fail. I hope that they fail, but also they're trying to sow seeds of doubt
00:15:24.760 because they know that right now he's probably the 2028 candidate.
00:15:29.740 So I think it's all just fake news and that they're trying to drive a rift.
00:15:34.180 But I believe that President Trump has his loyalty.
00:15:37.500 Yeah, I agree with you.
00:15:38.600 It was funny.
00:15:39.120 President Trump from the Oval Office today said he spoke to a former president as recent as today.
00:15:44.880 And that former president told him that he was excited and happy that he did this 0.98
00:15:49.720 and pretty much told him he wished he had the cojones to do it himself. 0.95
00:15:53.100 Now, I'm not sure which president it was.
00:15:55.680 Let's listen to the clip, and then I'll get your take on it and see what you think.
00:15:59.700 Well, so far, nobody knows.
00:16:01.200 If you look at his father, he used to give talks a lot, you know, talking about death to America.
00:16:06.680 He'd say death to America all the time.
00:16:08.980 When they say death to America, you should believe them, because that's what they would have. 1.00
00:16:13.140 If they had a nuclear weapon, they would have used it.
00:16:15.480 But they never had the chance.
00:16:16.760 I never gave them the chance to use it.
00:16:18.940 And other presidents should have done.
00:16:22.060 I spoke to one of the former presidents who I actually like, actually speak to some.
00:16:27.060 I do like some people be shocking.
00:16:30.500 And he said, I wish I did what you did.
00:16:33.400 Could have done it.
00:16:34.620 Other presidents, somebody should have done it.
00:16:37.720 47 years this went on.
00:16:40.040 They call Iran the bully of the Middle East.
00:16:42.520 And you could have never had the Abraham Accords. 0.89
00:16:45.020 You could never have had peace in the Middle East. 1.00
00:16:46.800 now you're gonna have peace you could never do it with the dark cloud of a nuclear iran but iran 0.72
00:16:53.920 is a shell of itself it's no longer a bully it's the one that gets bullied it's a bully that got 0.98
00:16:58.660 beat up we beat the crap out of them and uh and they deserve that there's nothing better than 0.98
00:17:05.360 watching the bully get the punch square in the eyes uh who do you think the former president was 0.98
00:17:10.000 i think it was barack obama who do you think it was oh i think it was bill clinton
00:17:16.280 here's what we know for certain it was not joseph robinette biden or joe or george bush
00:17:25.920 because no it was definitely not bush so who could it have been i mean you've got clinton
00:17:32.900 you've got robinette biden you've got uh barack hussein the only one i can think is barack and
00:17:38.580 what i've been told is behind the scenes is he actually likes barack which i don't understand
00:17:43.400 how. This is Donald Trump's problem. People think he has
00:17:47.440 all these problems. He's a narcissist. He's a racist. Trump's biggest 0.96
00:17:51.340 problem is forgiving people and that he forgives everyone and gives them
00:17:55.340 all a second chance. If Barack Obama did to me what he did to Donald Trump
00:17:59.220 was spying on his family, there's nothing he could have
00:18:03.320 possibly done. And I know Christ teaches that we have to forgive. I know.
00:18:07.080 I understand that. But it would make me very difficult, make it very
00:18:11.120 difficult for me to forgive that man yeah no i so it could be barack obama the only reason i say
00:18:18.200 clinton is clinton had to deal with iran uh quite a bit more he wanted to do more barack obama he
00:18:26.140 was sending him pallets of cash they were they were letting him out of uh sanctions and then
00:18:32.800 you know you had obama 3.0 under joe biden releasing five billion dollars in frozen funds
00:18:39.140 So I don't know who it was. He didn't say, you know, maybe we'll never know. But, you know, for me, I was thinking Bill Clinton only because Clinton had to deal with Iran significantly.
00:18:50.680 I think that's a good that's a good guess. And you had President Trump say some nice words about Bill Clinton recently. So it's sort of sort of an interesting dynamic here. But, you know, like you, Stephen, much like you, I trust what President Trump is doing.
00:19:07.780 I trust that he has the best interest of America, and it's so hard to do because literally in our lifetimes, you've got a few years on me, not much, but, you know, our lifetime, I think we could probably gauge in the same conversation.
00:19:25.180 We've seen so many presidents sell out this country, so many presidents just not have the best interest of America that it's hard.
00:19:33.120 It's like having that girlfriend who cheated on you and never trusting her again.
00:19:36.180 Now, if you've never been in that situation, consider yourself lucky, but some of us have.
00:19:40.500 OK, and it's hard to gain that trust again.
00:19:42.920 And I use that analogy with the presidents because we've had presidents just sell us down the road, sell us down the road, sell us down the road.
00:19:49.740 And I don't think for a second Donald Trump wanted to go to war in Iran.
00:19:53.000 I don't think he wanted to ruin his legacy.
00:19:54.640 He's a man who cares about his image.
00:19:56.720 He's a man who wants to be liked by people, regardless of what people think.
00:19:59.760 He wants to be liked. He doesn't like being hated.
00:20:02.880 So I think this was last resort for him, which is annoys me because people are giving him such a hard time that I don't think he wanted to do this.
00:20:11.800 I think he would rather be the president that hit Iran than the president that was hit by Iran. 0.61
00:20:17.780 And I think I think he felt like he needed to make the right move.
00:20:21.460 Listen, I don't I don't know that he would have done this if he didn't absolutely believe that they had enough uranium to attach it to an ICBM missile and launch it into Israel or Saudi Arabia, you know, one of the Abrahamic coordinations. 0.79
00:20:38.140 And then they would just from there ratchet up the distance. Next thing they're hitting Europe. Next thing they're hitting England. Next thing they're hitting D.C. and Florida.
00:20:46.660 So I don't believe he risked his entire legacy as the comeback president for nothing.
00:20:55.080 Yeah, I agree with you. Steve, we're up against a quick hard break here.
00:20:58.440 We're going to take this quick break. When we return, there's a member of Congress who's taking matters into her own hands as regards to the Senate. 0.96
00:21:06.880 She's had enough. She's had enough of the rhinos. 1.00
00:21:08.920 We're going to tell you who it is and what she's doing to hold the rhinos accountable. 1.00
00:21:12.980 It brings such joy to my ears.
00:21:16.400 Steve, we're going to talk about it on the other side of this quick break.
00:21:18.080 Folks, we're joined by Stephen Gardner, host of The Stephen Gardner Show.
00:21:21.200 If you're not already following him on YouTube and Rumble, please be sure to do so.
00:21:24.440 We're coming right back.
00:21:31.040 Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here on The Great America Show.
00:21:33.760 As I said before, we went to break there.
00:21:35.180 We're joined by my friend and host of The Stephen Gardner Show, Stephen Gardner.
00:21:39.300 Steve, let's turn to what's happening in Congress right now. Congresswoman Annapolino, Annapolino Luna is unleashing hell on the spineless, the spineless, feckless rhinos in the Senate who are sabotaging the Save America Act. 0.99
00:21:55.300 This is the critical legislation, which is designed to safeguard our elections from illegal aliens and from Democrat mail-in voting fraud. 0.89
00:22:03.900 Annapolino Luna on X declaring war, calling for primary challengers against any of these traitors to the American First agenda,
00:22:11.820 and even advocating for a convention of states to bypass the corrupt uniparty swamp in Washington, D.C.
00:22:19.600 Luna unloaded on the Senate rhinos who are hiding behind the filibuster 1.00
00:22:22.680 to block the wildly popular Save America Act,
00:22:26.740 a bill that will finally require people to be American citizens to vote.
00:22:32.120 Now, this already passed the House of Representatives.
00:22:35.640 It now requires the Senate, which President Trump says he's not going to pass
00:22:40.260 or sign any other legislation until they get their act together.
00:22:43.680 Your thoughts on Anna Paulina Luna, who's been just a driving force in this party?
00:22:48.880 Yeah, she is incredible. She is, I believe, the future of this party where she wants accountability.
00:22:57.340 She wants people to do what they say. If Republicans say that they're for lower taxes, we've got to pass bills to lower taxes. 0.99
00:23:04.840 If we say we're for the border, we've got to build a wall on the border.
00:23:08.200 If we say that we're for no illegals voting in our elections, then you have to do that. 1.00
00:23:12.780 So I, for one, think that this is great. I actually believe there's a lot of rhinos hiding behind this vote, right?
00:23:22.400 Even some that have come forward and said, oh, I would vote if it came to the floor.
00:23:27.200 Yeah, right. Let's actually get it to the floor. I want to put it on record.
00:23:32.260 Brandon Gills from Texas, he said that there's about 50 people over in the House that aren't going to pass any more bills from the Senate until this gets passed.
00:23:42.560 And he said the point of this isn't just to point out who isn't willing to vote with the Republican Party and with President Trump, but it is to pass this and get it to the president's desk.
00:23:54.240 But I believe that if they actually put this to a vote, you're going to see some people vote against it.
00:24:00.500 And she's right. Those are the people we need to get out.
00:24:03.560 Which brings up the million dollar question of why President Trump hasn't endorsed Ken Paxson in Texas yet.
00:24:10.420 It's mind blowing to me.
00:24:12.560 Yeah, I think that there's some chess going on, right?
00:24:15.620 He doesn't like to shake up the status quo.
00:24:18.140 Otherwise, we'd get rid of John Cornyn and Lindsey Graham, right?
00:24:22.800 But he's also looking for, okay, even if they don't vote with me all the time,
00:24:27.820 if I get impeached, are they going to impeach me?
00:24:31.440 So he is playing some chess there.
00:24:33.720 But I think that Ken Paxton is a much better option.
00:24:37.400 I think it was very noble of him to say, listen,
00:24:39.760 You guys spent 70 million dollars and you still didn't beat me in the primaries.
00:24:44.700 I will drop out if you will guarantee me in writing that you will pass the most important legislation of our time.
00:24:51.660 And they're still waffling back and forth about it.
00:24:55.500 Yeah, it's mind blowing to me. And the Democrats, Stephen, the scary thing is they're continuing right now to keep our DHS held hostage,
00:25:03.840 which I think further reinforces the need to eliminate the filibuster.
00:25:07.780 It's been a month since the Democrats forced the DHS to pretty much shut down indefinitely.
00:25:13.720 You see what's happening. TSA, I'm traveling tomorrow.
00:25:16.600 I'm going to be the next two days in Nashville and Kentucky.
00:25:21.080 Lines at the airport's two hours long. It's not even about the lines.
00:25:24.500 It's about the safety. TSA agents walking off the job, less safety.
00:25:29.680 The last place you want to compromise safety is at an airport.
00:25:33.240 Yeah, they've got a couple hundred people quitting per day. Over 100,000 people, John. They're going on their third missed paycheck. This is so disrespectful. You say you're the party for the American worker. You say you're the party of kindness, the party for the little people. I hope the American people wake up.
00:25:53.140 They're literally using you as a pawn, cheating you out of money in order to try to humiliate Trump.
00:25:59.460 But I believe it's backfiring. I think the American people are seeing this.
00:26:03.000 But at the end of the day, they are risking the safety of our people.
00:26:07.000 Speaking of hypocrisy and the Democrats, let's wrap up with this and have some fun.
00:26:12.320 The Obama Presidential Center, which, by the way, was way over budget and way behind schedule,
00:26:18.160 is seeking, if you're interested, Stephen, 100 unpaid volunteers ahead of their summer opening.
00:26:23.140 while their CEO of the center, Valerie Jarrett, is making about $750,000 a year. 0.83
00:26:30.340 A little bit hypocritical for the Democrats, isn't it? 0.89
00:26:33.700 Oh, absolutely it is. 0.99
00:26:35.180 I mean, that library is so ugly.
00:26:37.160 It looks like Elon Musk launched his cyber truck into space.
00:26:41.180 It didn't quite make it, and it slammed down into the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, right?
00:26:46.280 The thing is hideous, but listen to this, what they're trying to do.
00:26:49.560 They're saying one of our elite, one of our own, she's going to make seven hundred and thirty thousand dollars. 1.00
00:26:56.160 How are we able to pay her nearly three quarters of a million dollars by asking 100 people to work for free? 1.00
00:27:03.580 What is this, the airport all over again? People don't work for free.
00:27:07.980 They need to be paid. They need to be compensated, but they don't care about people.
00:27:12.300 All they care about is their hoity toity elite parties, rubbing shoulders, getting rich off the American people.
00:27:18.700 it's a tragedy the way that they're treating people yeah it really is steve it's a delight
