I said very candidly that the right wing in this country wants a rematch of the
00:00:11.880
Civil War. I just I want that to sit in right now because the president of the
00:00:16.600
United States of America has declared war on the people of Chicago and people
00:00:21.680
across America. He's more interested in giving billions of dollars to other
00:00:26.120
nations while farmers in urban cities around this country are literally being
00:00:32.180
destabilized. And so whether it's the legal system, whether it's through
00:00:37.940
executive order, or whether it's through the brave women and men who are serving
00:00:44.000
as rapid responders, we literally have people who are volunteering in this city
00:00:49.760
on the southwest side, the northwest side, all over this city to make sure that
00:00:55.120
we're protecting children from being separated from their families. And we're
00:01:01.540
talking about volunteers who are literally putting themselves at risk of
00:01:06.940
being shot and killed by the federal government. And so whether it's the legal
00:01:12.580
system, whether it's our continuous struggle for liberation through
00:01:16.660
organizing, and whether it's through executive action, or whether it's through
00:01:20.440
law, it would be nice if we actually had lawmakers in Washington that would
00:01:25.800
actually hold this president accountable. And if they won't do it, then the city of
00:01:30.380
Chicago will using every single tool that's available to us.
00:01:34.380
Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Great America Show. It's great to have you with
00:01:37.500
us on this beautiful Monday in America. That was Mayor Brandon Johnson of the
00:01:41.840
great city of Chicago once was great and could be great again, getting rid of
00:01:46.440
Marxist damn rulers like himself. That was a press conference that he held
00:01:51.800
earlier this morning talking about President Trump federalizing Chicago,
00:01:57.180
talking, feeling like he cares about the people in his city. Now, if he cared about
00:02:02.280
the people in the city, there wouldn't have been 30 people shot over the weekend,
00:02:06.600
which I think is on the low end number. You can double check that on how many
00:02:10.360
people are usually shot in the city of Chicago on a weekend basis. Now, there's been
00:02:16.020
more than 1,500 shooting victims just as far alone in 2025. But you hear
00:02:21.780
Brandon Johnson, Mayor Brandon Johnson, talking like he cares about the people
00:02:24.920
and is a boss of a governor, J.B. Pritzker, talk like they care about the
00:02:30.740
people. And if you didn't know who this guy was and you were just watching his
00:02:33.940
press conference, you would think he was a good guy. You would think he cares
00:02:37.560
about us. But you can't possibly care about people. You can't care about your city
00:02:41.900
when you've got 30 to 50 to 100 people being shot in your city each weekend, right?
00:02:47.180
You can't possibly care about your people and your city when you have over 1,500
00:02:51.100
shootings this year alone, I would think, right? That many people you would think
00:02:57.640
that you'd probably start to tamper down a little bit and lock down and get your
00:03:02.900
police to get the place under control. But no, that's the exact opposite of what Brandon
00:03:10.600
Johnson wants. Brandon Johnson's too worried about Donald Trump. His Trump derangement
00:03:15.340
syndrome gets in the way of him being able to govern his city and defend his city and protect
00:03:21.640
his citizens in his city. Now, the sanctuary city of Chicago reportedly, this is in addition
00:03:28.300
to all the blabber you hear out of Brandon Johnson's mouth, they've reportedly ordered
00:03:34.360
their police force to refuse calls from help for any ICE agents who are under siege by the
00:03:40.900
violent protesters in support of the criminal illegal aliens. Now, many, many, many police
00:03:48.020
unions have denounced Mayor Brandon Johnson and his police leadership for their efforts and
00:03:52.860
orders against ICE agents. What's the case if the shoe is on the other foot? Are the federal
00:04:02.560
officers to not help police officers if the police officers are being overrun? I would think
00:04:08.740
that'd be absolutely stupid. I don't think you'd ever hear anything from Donald Trump's mouth
00:04:15.580
like that, because if you did, it would be covered all over the news. Imagine that. Donald Trump orders
00:04:20.560
the federal government to not help local police officers. You'd never hear that anyway, because
00:04:26.340
Donald Trump is a champion for police officers. Now, according to the New York Post, ICE officers
00:04:30.980
made calls over the radio over the weekend for assistance, and a Chicago police dispatcher
00:04:37.440
replied, quote, we're not sending anybody out to that location. Now, it was also reported that
00:04:43.560
Chicago police vehicles sat immobile nearby as ICE agents were under attack last night.
00:04:50.560
Imagine that. This is what we're dealing with now with these people. This is what we're dealing
00:04:57.300
with now with the city of Chicago and these Marxist Democrats who mean to destroy America,
00:05:02.440
and destroying America is exactly what they're doing. Now, that's only the beginning of what
00:05:08.520
Mayor Brandon Johnson wants. This is Mayor Brandon Johnson on now ICE-free zones. Take a listen.
00:05:14.680
Today, we are signing an executive order aimed at reining in this out-of-control administration.
00:05:21.420
The order establishes ICE-free zones. That means that city property and unwilling private businesses
00:05:30.520
will no longer serve as staging grounds for these raids.
00:05:34.900
Hmm. ICE-free zones. This sounds awfully like what we saw in 2020 with CHOP and these federal zones,
00:05:44.200
which people believed were autonomous zones. I'm sure you guys all remember in the summer of love,
00:05:49.500
which is what I believe the Democrats are trying to recreate right now, the summer of love,
00:05:53.900
where they burnt down cities. You think about it, right? If they can destabilize cities and they can
00:05:59.480
cause upheaval and they can cause unrest in these cities, who do they point the finger at?
00:06:05.160
Well, of course, it's the orange man, the big, bad orange man. Donald Trump
00:06:08.400
is the one who's causing civil unrest in these cities, right? It happened in 2020
00:06:12.160
when President Trump was president. It didn't happen under Joe Biden.
00:06:15.860
And now, all of a sudden, it's happening again. But nobody wants to talk about in the mainstream media.
00:06:20.480
They don't want to talk about who's funding these people, what they really stand for.
00:06:25.740
You know, it's interesting to me, and it's very telling. Maybe some of you have gotten this impression.
00:06:31.780
But this time around, we're not really seeing any BLM. In 2020, in the summer of love, it was BLM
00:06:39.860
burning down cities, burning down police stations. It's now these Antifa, anti-fascists, of course,
00:06:46.020
not fascists. Fascism is what they're allegedly fighting against. Well, it's quite the opposite of what
00:06:52.680
they're doing and what they're actually fighting against. Fraudulent people, as we all know.
00:07:00.780
But no BLM. It's literally just these Antifa who are most likely Soros-funded or big organization
00:07:07.900
funded, who really don't know what they stand for, coming out to cause civil unrest in the streets.
00:07:14.560
To protest against what? Well, I'm sure if you've asked some of them, they're not even sure entirely
00:07:19.340
what they're protesting against, but they're allegedly protesting against the deportation
00:07:24.780
of illegal aliens. They heard Mayor Johnson in the opening clip there talk about President Trump
00:07:31.860
and the administration giving foreign aid to other nations. Well, let's not forget, under Joe Biden,
00:07:37.480
how many billions of dollars went to Ukraine, if he really wants to look at the numbers of aid going
00:07:42.040
to foreign nations. But the truth of the matter is, is aid goes to foreign nations under every single
00:07:46.040
administration. But he talked about the farmers. He must have forgot about President Trump bailing
00:07:51.760
out the soybean farmers when it came to China. Nobody cares more about middle America and the
00:07:56.620
farmers than Donald Trump. So the fact that Brendan Johnson somehow wants to intimate that he knows
00:08:03.200
anything about it, being the mayor of a big city, is just laughable. And I guess you can add insult to
00:08:10.680
injury on the stupidity of this man. Now, he's far from the only person who's having a very difficult
00:08:19.340
time running their city. And it seems to be it's these Democrat-run cities.
00:08:28.340
Couldn't necessarily have a Republican governor, as we see in Tennessee right now, with President Trump
00:08:33.820
immobilizing the federal government in Memphis. But Memphis is run by a Democrat mayor.
00:08:38.500
As in some of these bigger cities, the mayor has more control, like you see in New York and like
00:08:44.520
you see in Chicago, in Memphis, over the governor. President Trump goes to the governor of Tennessee
00:08:51.220
and says, you guys are having a problem in Memphis. We're going to help you out. We'll send in the
00:08:55.660
federal government. Now, the Republican governor of Tennessee, who could have said, no, get lost.
00:09:02.680
This is a Republican city. We don't want to acknowledge that we have crime. No, he took the
00:09:07.140
ladder of the roots. And he says, yes, we do have a problem. And it's a being happened in a Democrat
00:09:12.360
blue run city. So come on in and please help us. Just imagine if the Democrats in Chicago or in
00:09:21.220
Portland, which we're going to take up on the other side of this quick break, or these other
00:09:25.760
massive Democrat blue cities just allowed the federal government to come in and clean up their cities.
00:09:30.220
Hell, the Democrats would even be able to take credit for it. Look at this. We cleaned up our
00:09:35.780
city and we're prosperous again. 50 people aren't getting shot a weekend. Be a nice theory to think
00:09:43.280
about, right? But now the Democrats can't do that because it gives President Trump some sort of
00:09:48.380
validity to what he's doing. And of course, everything he's doing is valid. He doesn't want
00:09:53.200
to see another summer of love where innocent people are shot and innocent people are killed,
00:09:57.000
as we saw. Folks, we're going to take a quick break here on the other side of this quick break.
00:10:01.260
We're going to talk about what's happening in Portland right now. They're having their own
00:10:04.320
problems. And President Trump is trying, I guess, his best to fix it over. They're fighting with
00:10:09.560
another Marxist damn governor. Stephen Miller reacts to it all. The government shutdown continues,
00:10:14.540
all that and much, much more on the other side of this quick break. The Great America Show
00:10:17.500
continues in just one moment, folks. Please stay with us. We're coming right back.
00:10:20.620
Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here on The Great America Show. So, Portland,
00:10:30.620
another Marxist damn run city, another Marxist damn run state that's having another issue.
00:10:36.580
They're allowing agitators to take over their streets and to start riots. Now, January Sixters
00:10:44.600
were considered domestic terrorists. Some of them locked away in a gulag for years with no
00:10:50.220
charges, no trials, just locked in a gulag. But we're supposed to let these people in Portland
00:10:56.900
run free as are being run free in Chicago. Now, a federal judge on Sunday night issuing a second
00:11:04.120
temporary restraining order blocking the Trump administration from deploying the National Guard
00:11:08.660
troops to Oregon, this time from any state. The first order was from deploying the Oregon National
00:11:13.900
Guard. This is now any state. And the ruling came after the Trump administration ordered 400 members
00:11:20.200
of the Texas National Guard to be deployed to several different states, including to Oregon,
00:11:25.080
as well as 300 from California. Both states then asked the judge to block the Trump administration's
00:11:31.300
move to deploy these judges. Now, it's U.S. District Judge Karen Immigrant. She's the one who granted
00:11:38.800
this temporary restraining order. So, by these two states, she was appointed by President Trump in his
00:11:44.440
first term. I guess it was one of the folks who managed to wiggle their way through. So, as all of
00:11:51.320
this happens, some Trump administration officials are considering deploying the 82nd Airborne Division
00:11:56.700
to go into Portland to combat the Antifa violence, the same 82nd Airborne that was in Iraq and Afghanistan.
00:12:05.040
So, this should tell the Marxist Democrats that Trump is not playing games. He's not here to play games,
00:12:11.360
doesn't want to play games, and he's not playing games with the lives of the American people,
00:12:16.400
the taxpayers. What happens to the taxpayers' right to live in a safe, clean city, crime-free?
00:12:26.000
These Antifa agitators, the Democrats say, are good people, why are they running around with masks on?
00:12:32.700
Why are they covering their faces, walking around with battering rams and helmets?
00:12:38.980
Now, the Democrats on the left, they cry and cry and cry that ICE agents are wearing masks,
00:12:43.940
but this is merely to protect these people's lives from the backlash and the
00:12:51.020
possibility of being doxed by some Democrat. Remember, it's the Democrats who cause the violence.
00:12:58.140
It's the Democrats who incite the violence in this country. The man who put a bullet in Charlie
00:13:03.820
Kirk's net was not a Republican. The man who took a shot at President Trump's head was not a
00:13:09.380
Republican. The man who was sitting on the sidelines of President Trump's golf course
00:13:12.960
to take his head off was not a Republican. You get the drift of where the violence comes from,
00:13:19.900
but the Democrats, they'll never acknowledge that they're the party of hate and that they're the
00:13:23.840
party of violence. Because for years, they tried to convince the American people
00:13:29.800
that Donald Trump is the devil, that January Sixters are insurrectionists, that January Sixters
00:13:36.420
are domestic terrorists. But the Democrats and these people who are causing riots in these cities,
00:13:43.160
those are the real domestic terrorists. Take a listen. Stephen Miller was on CNN earlier this
00:13:49.540
afternoon, taking, I don't even know who this host is. I've never seen him before.
00:13:53.840
But taking him to task and owning him because he was upset that Stephen Miller was calling these
00:14:00.260
people domestic terrorists. What else do you call them? Take a listen.
00:14:05.060
Do you have any idea how much of ICE's workforce and resources have had to be reprioritized?
00:14:10.260
How much of the Joint Terrorism Task Force's resources have had to be reprioritized
00:14:14.000
to fight these domestic terrorists? Do you have any idea how many resources are spent?
00:14:18.360
You keep calling them terrorists, but isn't that hyperbolic to call them terrorists?
00:14:23.780
No, if anything, I'm understating the severity of the situation. What issue was more central in 2024
00:14:30.560
than turning back the border invasion? And since the day we came in, ICE officers have been subjected
00:14:37.040
to a nonstop campaign of physical violence and harassment every single day. And outside the Portland
00:14:43.620
field office, in particular, every night, they come, they assemble, they fight, they try to impede
00:14:50.800
movement, they physically attack. For what purpose? Because we had an election, Boris, we had one.
00:14:56.880
What's the purpose? To use actual physical violence to change the result of the election,
00:15:03.620
to say you cannot turn back the border invasion. Do you have any idea how many resources we have
00:15:09.040
have to redesignate to deal with these street terrorists? The man was clearly lost as Stephen
00:15:15.900
Miller took him to task. Miller went on to talk to this fella about deploying the resources.
00:15:21.600
Well, the administration will abide by the ruling insofar as it affects the covered parties,
00:15:27.780
but there are also many other options the president has to deploy federal resources and assets out of
00:15:33.720
the US military to Portland. But I was making the point that under federal law, section title 10 of
00:15:41.000
the US code, the president has the authority anytime he believes federal resources are insufficient
00:15:45.880
to federalize the National Guard to carry out a mission necessary for public safety. So it's important
00:15:52.020
to understand that in Portland, ICE officers have been subjected to over a hundred nights of terrorist
00:15:57.180
assault, doxing, murder threats, violent attack, and every other means imaginable to try to overturn
00:16:03.660
the results of the last election through violence. The most important point I want to make today is
00:16:08.060
that the number one and two items in the GOP platform in 2024 were to turn back the border invasion
00:16:14.900
and carry out the largest deportation program in American history. Since inauguration day, there's been
00:16:20.260
an orchestrated campaign of terrorism and violence against ICE officers. Of course, we saw the recent
00:16:25.680
sniper attack against ICE officers. They're publishing their family's photos online. They're
00:16:30.160
threatening them with murder or threatening with death. And they're physically attacking them in
00:16:33.360
the street each and every day. And yet, shamefully, the mayor and governor in Portland and Oregon have
00:16:39.640
refused to render aid, leaving ICE officers to street fight every single night against these terrorists.
00:16:45.720
Exactly what they are terrorists. Now, President Trump obviously has the right to call in
00:16:53.680
the National Guard. We've got some breaking news to you we're going to bring you, but I want to bring
00:16:57.760
you one more clip from this interview with Miller and this fellow on CNN.
00:17:01.360
If a Democratic president someday calls the National Guard to a red state over what they see as open
00:17:06.960
rebellion, but is what amounts to a demonstration that gets rowdy? I mean, is that not a few years?
00:17:14.320
Pictures of their kids because it's a demonstration and they have a sniper on top of a building firing
00:17:19.680
a high caliber rifle at a nice facility because it's a demonstration and they are engaged in a
00:17:24.400
vehicle ramming. But the National Guard isn't being sent to Texas because it's a national guard
00:17:28.320
isn't being sent to Dallas where that sniper was. Because the Dallas police department and the governor
00:17:32.560
of Texas, well, you walked right into that one, have responded to every call for assistance and help.
00:17:37.600
They gave a stand down order in Chicago and they gave a stand down order in Portland.
00:17:41.440
Do you realize that there's 11,000 federal law enforcement officers in Oregon? That's larger
00:17:46.320
than the size of the FBI. Local and state police are resourced to deal with this kind of riotous
00:17:53.120
assembly, but they have refused. They've been given a stand down order. So we need to use the National
00:17:57.840
Guard and federal troops to fill in that breach. They've been arresting folks on the ground.
00:18:01.280
They've been arresting folks on the ground. They were a few of what you're saying outright.
00:18:04.080
They we literally have the 9-1-1 audio of the stand down order in Chicago and we have documented
00:18:11.360
inside of DHS every single unrespondent to 9-9-1-9-1 call over the recent weeks and months.
00:18:20.080
Owned once again, I don't know why these people asked Stephen Miller come on. He's smarter than
00:18:24.080
every single one of them. And time and time again, we're seeing judges be rebuked. You have these
00:18:28.720
judges who come in who want to be judged during verdict and they try to rebuke President Trump and
00:18:33.360
his administration. Just moments ago, a federal judge declined. Take a listen to this because
00:18:39.280
it's going to be a rough day for Brandon Johnson and J.B. Pritzker. A federal judge declined to block
00:18:46.320
the deployment of the National Guard troops to Illinois. A mobilization of the state's governor,
00:18:50.720
J.B. Pritzker, labeled an unconstitutional evasion by the federal government. The judge's ruling
00:18:57.040
allows the deployment to move ahead for now. Came as military officials said 200 troops from the
00:19:02.320
Texas Guard were heading to Illinois. There you go. Another L on the chin for the Marxist Democrats.
00:19:09.760
Now, that's for Illinois. I could assume that the situation going on in Portland will probably have
00:19:16.800
some sort of next day or two, if not hour or two, allowing President Trump to go ahead and move
00:19:23.120
forward with the National Guards there. Now, these people try to frame it as we're an autonomous
00:19:28.720
state. We're autonomous from the United States of America. We don't need to be part of whatever
00:19:35.520
you're doing, whatever ICE raid you're doing. There's one problem with that is each and every
00:19:39.280
state takes federal funding and relies on federal funding. So you are part of the United States. I'm
00:19:45.680
sorry. Mr. Mayor Brendan Johnson, J.B. Pritzker and Tina Kodak, the governor of Oregon. Very
00:19:54.560
strange person up there. We're going to take one more quick break here, folks. When we return,
00:19:58.400
President Trump's administration, government may be shut down, but it's not stopping their war against
00:20:04.480
the drug machine. It's not stopping their war against anti-Americans. And how much longer can we
00:20:09.840
expect this shutdown to go for? I mean, when are the Democrats going to call it quits? When is Chuck
00:20:16.160
Schumer going to stop playing with the lives of millions of Americans? When is he going to stop
00:20:20.720
playing with the lives of millions of children and women? We're going to take a quick break here,
00:20:25.120
folks. On the other side of this quick break, we're taking all that up and much, much more. Please
00:20:28.400
stay with us. The Great America Show continues in just one moment.
00:20:31.680
Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here on The Great America Show. So we're now on day six.
00:20:41.920
We're going to be up on day seven in just a few hours on the Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries owned
00:20:48.000
federal government shutdown. It's unapparent why they're holding the government hostage. It's
00:20:53.480
unapparent why they're holding federal funds hostage from people. It's unapparent why they're
00:20:57.920
holding tens of millions of Americans' paychecks hostage. This continuing resolution, folks,
00:21:05.360
that the Republicans put forward is the same continuing resolution that was put forward
00:21:09.440
months ago that Chuck Schumer had no problem signing. So what changed? Perhaps the people
00:21:17.280
around him's political ambitions, such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who may soon be running for
00:21:23.440
Senate or governor or whatever upper office she wants to run for. So Chuck Schumer has to position
00:21:28.800
himself as far left as possible to not be primaried. It's the only way you can assure
00:21:33.840
you're safe. But I don't even think that marks him safe with how bad of a job he's done and how sick
00:21:39.120
of these institutional politicians that have been destroying America for so long.
00:21:46.720
Mike Johnson wants to know the same question we all want to know. What changed, Chuck?
00:21:50.160
Why the change of heart from just a few months ago?
00:21:54.320
Now, look, Chuck Schumer and all the Democrats who voted against opening the government right now
00:21:59.280
have said all this themselves. Chuck Schumer gave passionate speeches as recently as March of this
00:22:04.000
year. I mean, roll the tape. He's the one that voted for the exact same CR, the exact same spending
00:22:09.120
levels just six months ago and said that we could not possibly shut the government down. He's changed
00:22:13.920
his tune. And I mean, I'm not trying to be mean about this, right? I respect Chuck Schumer as a person,
00:22:19.840
but he's got a political problem that he's trying to solve using government funding for it. He's
00:22:24.640
afraid. This is very clear and obvious to everybody. He's afraid he's going to get a
00:22:28.080
challenge from his left flank in his next reelection bid. So he needs to show a fight against
00:22:32.560
the President Trump and the Republicans. And he's chosen government funding for that. I think it's
00:22:36.240
selfish. I think it's it's foolish. And I think it's hurting real Americans. We need to get the
00:22:40.480
lights turned back on so we can finish the discussions on the substantive debate.
00:22:44.080
Yeah, as I said, I going far left as possible is what Chuck Schumer thinks is going to save him. But
00:22:50.160
ultimately, I don't think it saves him. People are tired of the nonsense and BS from politicians
00:22:55.760
that we've gotten, you know, over the last few years. They're tired of it. They're tired of Chuck,
00:23:02.000
they're tired of Hakeem, they're tired of all of it, which is why AOC and her squad of Marxists
00:23:07.760
have become so popular, whether people completely agree with them or not. They want fresh faces in
00:23:12.240
politics. So the Democrats often talk about how they care about women and children, right? My body,
00:23:18.160
my choice, or this or that. Then why don't they care about women and children right now?
00:23:25.280
Because a federal food aid program that helps more than six million low income mothers and young
00:23:30.320
children set to run out of money, federal money, that is, within two weeks unless the government shutdown
00:23:35.600
ends. It's going to force states to use their own money to keep it afloat or risk shutting it down
00:23:41.160
completely. It's an eight billion dollar special supplement nutrient program for women, infants,
00:23:46.520
and children known as WIC. And what it does is it provides vouchers to buy formula, instant formula,
00:23:52.600
as well as fresh fruits, vegetables, and low fat milk and other healthy staples that are often out
00:23:57.400
of financial reach for low income households. And that's American people, folks, which is probably
00:24:02.760
why the Democrats don't really care. This is for American people, not the illegals.
00:24:10.120
Imagine that. Now, the shutdown, which began last Wednesday, it coincided with the beginning of a
00:24:14.920
new fiscal year, meaning programs like which, which rely on their annual infusions from federal
00:24:20.600
governments, are out of money or nearly out of money. The program is currently kept afloat by 150
00:24:27.080
million dollar contingency fund. But the experts are saying it's set to run out very, very shortly.
00:24:40.200
my body, my choice or care about women or care about children is put on full display here with
00:24:46.840
the Democrats. These fools who allege they care about women, they don't give a damn.
00:24:53.160
If they did, they wouldn't be playing with the lives of American people.
00:24:58.280
They're doing right now. And children are most vulnerable women and children and elderly.
00:25:09.080
This is the Schumer, Hakeem Jeffrey shutdown. That's probably going to cost them the next two
00:25:14.920
elections, the midterm elections and the presidential election in 2028.
00:25:20.920
As long as the Republicans can hold their course as they're doing, the Republicans pass these CRs
00:25:26.600
to keep the government funded at Biden level spending. Now, I don't agree with the CR.
00:25:31.640
I think a lot of us conservatives don't. But to go an extra month, the stopgap to go an extra month
00:25:37.000
to get an appropriations bill through. It's not too much to ask for.
00:25:42.040
OK, we don't agree with it. We need spending to be cut.
00:25:51.800
We've got to have the government open for business.
00:25:53.320
So the Democrats will own this one. And like I said, I believe this will be part of the demise
00:26:01.960
for their next two elections. So the federal government may be shut down, but it's not stopping
00:26:06.280
President Trump and his administration from the war on drugs. Just over the weekend,
00:26:14.760
So the Venezuelan drug boat apparently had enough drugs to kill 25 to 50,000 people.
00:26:22.920
Good news is it didn't make it to its destination as it was shot off the coast of Venezuela,
00:26:27.640
entering American territory over the weekend. We've got the video for you joining us here on video.
00:26:34.200
As you can see there, not much left of the boat, except for maybe some fentanyl or cocaine fumes
00:26:45.240
over there, over the beautiful waters. This is what the drug cartels have to look forward to now,
00:26:51.880
as President Trump is now designated that they will enter ground wars with these people, meaning to
00:26:58.360
continue to do like this, meaning to continue to kill drug lords, to kill drug purveyors,
00:27:05.000
bringing drugs into this country. This is what we've all been waiting for. I think this is probably
00:27:09.400
one of the biggest things President Trump is doing in his administration thus far. Marco Rubio was asked
00:27:14.600
about it over the weekend, and he had this to say. Yeah, I can tell you this. The Department of Defense
00:27:19.720
doesn't take this lightly. There are many boats running through that region, some of which we suspect
00:27:24.200
may have drugs on them, and they don't take shots at them because they need to know with 100% certainty.
00:27:28.760
I can't tell you the tactics or how it comes about in terms of how we gather the intelligence,
00:27:32.920
but suffice it to say the Department of War has tremendous confidence in the way they are gathering
00:27:38.200
information. They know who's on those boats. They know what those boats are doing. And I would ask
00:27:41.960
people for some common sense, okay? What is a boat doing 15 miles into international waters with four
00:27:48.280
450 engines on the back of it? No fishing rods, clear markings of drugs on those boats. We know who
00:27:54.920
these boats are. We've known who these boats are for a very long time. In the past, there's been
00:27:58.680
efforts to interdict them. Now the effort is to stop them. They are headed towards the United States
00:28:03.560
through a logistics chain they've created in the Caribbean, and that needs to stop. For the first
00:28:07.560
time in our history, the U.S. military is operating in our region, in our hemisphere, against these
00:28:14.280
traffickers of poison who are ultimately winding up in our streets, contributing to crime in our
00:28:18.760
streets, not to mention the death of Americans. So they have the highest confidence in this because
00:28:23.320
of the work that goes into this, because of the tremendous amount of caution they're taking in
00:28:27.080
deciding who to strike and who not to strike. And by the way, it's already had a dramatic impact.
00:28:32.440
The number of boats coming out running drugs has dramatically decreased in the last few weeks.
00:28:38.520
That alone has already had an impact. There are drugs that are not in the streets of the United States
00:28:42.680
right now because of what President Trump and his administration is doing.
00:28:46.120
The government may be shut down by President Trump still keeping his eye on the prize,
00:28:51.080
and that's protecting democracy and protecting true justice in the American way and protecting
00:28:55.400
the American people. That's all for us today, folks. Tomorrow on The Great America Show,
00:28:59.480
we're going to be joined by a fan favorite, a weekly guest here on The Great America Show,
00:29:03.000
the great Roger Stone. We've got so much to take up. Roger, as you all know, arrested years ago,
00:29:10.040
marched out of his house by the FBI, raided his house pre-dawn. CNN was sitting there waiting.
00:29:15.880
As we now have James Comey, who's been charged with the same exact thing,
00:29:19.640
and the process and way it's playing out is completely different. I'm not even sure if James
00:29:25.480
Comey's turned himself in yet or the perp walk, as they did to Roger Stone, guns drawn into his head.
00:29:31.000
We're going to be taking that up tomorrow on The Great America Show. We're also going to be taking up a
00:29:34.200
story that Roger was the one who broke a few months back with Letitia James and her
00:29:39.240
mortgage fraud scam. That's Attorney General Letitia James. These state prosecutors in the
00:29:43.160
Eastern District of Virginia where she committed that alleged fraud are leaking again. This time,
00:29:47.800
they're trying to defend Letitia. Top prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia are refusing to
00:29:53.720
charge corrupt Attorney General Letitia James for her mortgage fraud and her tax fraud as a result of
00:30:01.320
her improperly filling out her mortgage documents to get more favorable loans. You know, the same
00:30:07.880
thing she accused Donald Trump of. That's all tomorrow on The Great America Show. We hope to
00:30:12.440
see you back here tomorrow, folks. The quest for truth, justice, and the American way continues.
00:30:16.360
We'll see you back tomorrow, same time, same place. Until then, may God bless you,
00:30:20.360
and God bless America, and may God bless the great Lou Dobbs. Have a great night, everybody.
