00:00:00.000 This is the day that people across the region and around the world have been working, striving,
00:00:09.760 hoping and praying for. They have done things over the last month that I think were really
00:00:16.660 unthinkable. Nobody thought this could happen. With the historic agreement we've just signed,
00:00:22.820 those prayers of millions have finally been answered. As you know, the hostages have been
00:00:29.080 returned and further work goes on having to do with the, sadly to say, bodies. Together we've
00:00:37.400 achieved what everybody said was impossible. At long last we have peace in the Middle East and
00:00:43.540 this very simple expression, peace in the Middle East. And we've heard it for many years, but nobody
00:00:48.680 thought it could ever get there. And now we're there. Hello everybody and welcome to the Great
00:00:53.460 America Show. It's great to have you with us. Happy Monday. We are live tonight. If you're joining us
00:00:57.360 on YouTube, Rumble, Twitter, please be sure to drop a comment. Let us know where you're tuning
00:01:00.920 in from. If you're on YouTube, please be sure to like, subscribe and follow us here on the Great
00:01:05.800 America Show. We truly, truly appreciate it. What a weekend. What a monumental weekend and what a
00:01:12.300 monumental day for America. What a monumental day for the rest of the world. Putting all parties aside,
00:01:19.480 putting Israel aside, putting Gaza aside, Hamas aside, everything aside, Egypt aside. Think about 0.83
00:01:27.120 how great of a day it was for the rest of the world. I mean, the root of world issues pretty much
00:01:35.560 sits in the Middle East. I mean, every single issue that we have in this country and quite frankly, 0.88
00:01:43.520 abroad with the exception of the Southern border, roots somewhere in the Middle East, Afghanistan,
00:01:51.420 Iraq, Syria, Iran. I mean, you can throw pretty much a dart anywhere in that region, the exception
00:01:58.280 of a few countries, and there's some sort of rudimental problem between them and America.
00:02:05.100 What people don't realize is, and I don't mean you guys, I mean, on the left and the mainstream media,
00:02:10.180 what people don't realize is that by Donald Trump creating this coalition of different countries
00:02:17.720 inside the Middle East, he's creating a coalition that will, in my opinion, work towards world peace.
00:02:26.320 When you have X amount of countries in a coalition in the Middle East, it's going to make it very, 0.81
00:02:34.240 very hard for a country like Iran to take up war with America, with Israel, with Qatar, with Saudi Arabia.
00:02:49.100 It'll make it hard for them to take up war with them here at home, with us here at home.
00:02:53.940 And that's, I think, a big part of what President Trump is working for.
00:02:59.100 It's not just towards securing peace, an everlasting peace for Israel from all their haters in the area,
00:03:07.560 but it's also securing peace for America.
00:03:12.480 I mean, you think of our two biggest opponents on the world stage, Russia and China, right?
00:03:18.540 It doesn't have to be this way, but this is, I guess, just by default how it is,
00:03:23.120 thanks to our world leaders who have unfortunately put us in bad situations time and time again.
00:03:31.500 George W. Bush, George H. W. Bush, Barack Hussein Obama, Joe Biden, Jimmy Carter.
00:03:39.600 They're the ones who put us into this situation that we're now in in the Middle East, 0.78
00:03:43.420 where it's, I mean, pretty much, again, everyone against America and Israel.
00:03:47.800 And Donald Trump, I don't think, gets enough credit for what he did his first time around with the Abraham Accords.
00:03:53.120 Now, I say this each and every time I talk about Israel on this show, and I truly believe it.
00:03:59.860 And I think there's a lot of people out there who agree with me,
00:04:02.180 including some top military brass that we've brought on the show.
00:04:05.700 If it weren't for the Abraham Accords that President Trump brought around his first term,
00:04:10.560 I don't think Israel would be standing today. 0.98
00:04:13.960 I truly don't.
00:04:15.120 I mean, you look at how much issue and problem they've had just around their surrounding countries,
00:04:23.820 Lebanon, Iran.
00:04:27.420 If it weren't for President Trump in the Abraham Accords,
00:04:30.580 I truly don't believe that Israel would be standing today. 1.00
00:04:34.940 And I think all the evidence points at that.
00:04:39.680 I really, really, truly, truly believe that.
00:04:43.100 President Trump in his very long speech today at the World Peace Forum or Summit,
00:04:48.240 whatever you want to call it,
00:04:49.500 says he now expects more countries to want to be brought in on those Abraham Accords.
00:04:54.540 We're going to get a lot of people joining the Abraham Accords. 1.00
00:04:57.340 We have the four great nations that did it early on, and they stayed with it.
00:05:01.740 And then you had the Biden administration, which is the worst administration in the history of our country.
00:05:07.680 And obviously, they did nothing on that and anything else.
00:05:11.440 And so it stayed at four.
00:05:12.940 And now a lot of people, even today, they're talking about all joining up.
00:05:16.720 So so many people have talked to me about that.
00:05:19.140 And it's going to be a great tribute to really the United States.
00:05:23.260 I mean, the United States has worked very hard in the Middle East.
00:05:26.060 So it would be a tribute to us and to Jared and to Steve and to all of the people, Marco,
00:05:31.660 all of the people that have worked so hard on that.
00:05:34.120 And it really is going to bring it's going to guarantee that it all stays together.
00:05:39.640 I don't know who would be against that.
00:05:41.400 I don't know who would be against finally getting some sort of peace over in the Middle East.
00:05:47.400 For years to come.
00:05:49.100 I mean, think about it.
00:05:49.800 So Donald Trump's not going to be in power much longer.
00:05:52.220 Unfortunately, I say this as a disgruntled person, knowing we're not going to have Donald Trump the rest of our lives.
00:06:04.180 So what's going to happen after Donald Trump?
00:06:07.640 What I believe is going to happen is whoever the next politicians are.
00:06:11.920 And I'm not saying it'll be J.D. Vance or Marco Rubio or one or the other.
00:06:16.660 But maybe after that, I think eventually you're going to have the country club Republicans try to resort back to business as usual.
00:06:27.700 And what is business as usual for the Republicans?
00:06:31.480 Well, just go ask Senators Tom Cotton or Senators Lindsey Graham.
00:06:35.080 It's the military industrial complex taking over the world.
00:06:39.660 It's the military industrial complex demanding we go to war with another country.
00:06:45.060 It's the military industrial complex telling us we have to think this certain way.
00:06:51.180 It's a military industrial complex telling us that we can't let so and so do this.
00:06:55.900 So that's what I believe, and I hope I'm wrong, but I believe that they're going to try to resort back to their old ways.
00:07:05.380 They're going to try to go back to business as usual, starting wars in countries that we have absolutely no interest of being in.
00:07:13.880 Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan to name three.
00:07:19.420 Troops lost there that we should have never lost.
00:07:21.660 The other thing I also say on this show all the time, we've lost more people to the invasion of the southern border than we lost in any war in the Middle East.
00:07:33.860 Simple math.
00:07:35.740 About 100,000 Americans a year dead.
00:07:39.080 From drug overdoses.
00:07:42.360 Yet we find ourselves time and time again.
00:07:45.680 In some country.
00:07:47.560 In the Middle East.
00:07:48.560 Now, this last time around when President Trump bombed Iran.
00:07:53.920 I mean, I came out here and there's shows.
00:07:55.840 We don't delete any of our shows.
00:07:56.960 I was vehemently against it.
00:07:58.760 I didn't think it was a good idea.
00:08:00.060 I didn't think it was a good idea for America to be going back over to the Middle East.
00:08:04.140 And I know Donald Trump.
00:08:05.100 It took him a lot to get to that point.
00:08:08.840 Knowing him personally, I think it took him a lot getting to that point where he finally sent over the bombers to blow up their nuclear facilities.
00:08:17.240 But the way that Donald Trump did it.
00:08:21.480 Which now I admit I was wrong.
00:08:23.600 Because that's what you're supposed to do when you're wrong.
00:08:26.560 You own up.
00:08:27.560 You admit it.
00:08:28.200 And you move forward and try not to make the same mistake again.
00:08:30.980 So I was wrong.
00:08:32.960 Because Donald Trump showed us that there is a way to hold countries accountable, to hold people accountable.
00:08:41.180 Without, one, upending their entire country. 0.93
00:08:44.120 Without, two, calling for and enacting on some sort of regime change, which has been business as usual for some Republican politicians over the course of the last few years.
00:08:55.320 And, three, for not sending troops on the ground.
00:08:59.840 I mean, he literally went over there.
00:09:01.640 He blew the heck out of their facilities.
00:09:04.420 And without skipping a beat, they were turned right back around, I think, on their way back to Missouri.
00:09:10.100 And I think because of that, it deterred Iran from possibly doing something.
00:09:17.340 I mean, their retaliation strike was in Qatar on an American base.
00:09:23.020 And what did Iran do?
00:09:24.400 They called up Qatar and they said, hey, just to let you know, we're doing a retaliatory strike.
00:09:28.440 It's going to be at this point at this time to make them seem like they're to be feared, which they're not.
00:09:35.260 But that was the retaliation.
00:09:37.200 Now, under a different president, like Joseph Robinette Biden, I think you see a far different picture.
00:09:44.040 And don't take my word for it.
00:09:45.460 Just take a look at Israel and Gaza right now. 0.51
00:09:48.320 Well, before today.
00:09:50.200 Take a look at Ukraine and Russia. 0.78
00:09:52.720 When you have a strong leader, you don't necessarily have to go the full mile to hold somebody to account.
00:10:03.740 Speak softly and carry a big stick.
00:10:05.380 Well, Donald Trump does a little bit of both, I think.
00:10:10.260 He speaks very strongly, softly.
00:10:13.100 You don't often hear him raising his voice.
00:10:16.260 But it puts us now in a position where I think we could have everlasting peace in the Middle East.
00:10:22.180 And I think that fundamentally changes the world.
00:10:25.600 If there is some way, some will, some way that we can get this in this country.
00:10:33.700 I want to take a quick break here, folks.
00:10:35.200 Before we go to break, though, I want to get to some of your questions to everyone tuned in.
00:10:40.420 As I said, we're live tonight.
00:10:41.640 So I appreciate, as always, you guys tuning in.
00:10:44.360 Kelly Song, good evening to you.
00:10:45.980 And thank you, as always, for tuning in.
00:10:49.020 Finbar is our friend from across the pond over in the UK.
00:10:52.820 Trump was just amazing today.
00:10:55.300 Indeed, he was.
00:10:55.820 We're going to have some more clips for everybody on the other side of this break.
00:11:00.120 Joan over on Facebook.
00:11:03.140 God bless our President Trump.
00:11:05.700 Oh, we got someone on Facebook.
00:11:09.720 Please take me off your distribution list. 0.89
00:11:12.620 I find this political puffing to be anti-American and hypocritical.
00:11:16.300 Well, you're tuned into the show.
00:11:18.400 You're not on any sort of distribution list.
00:11:20.400 And we don't shy away from any comments here, folks.
00:11:22.540 So send your hate and send all that good stuff.
00:11:24.220 We're putting it up for everyone to see.
00:11:27.220 GY5, good afternoon from beautiful San Diego.
00:11:31.640 Good afternoon, sir.
00:11:33.740 Carolyn over on Facebook.
00:11:34.680 Never heard the truth referred to as puffing before.
00:11:37.460 Thanks for your defense.
00:11:38.660 We appreciate it.
00:11:41.380 Shirley over on Facebook.
00:11:42.520 President Trump did it.
00:11:43.740 He did what no other person on this earth could have ever done.
00:11:47.480 You're absolutely right, Shirley.
00:11:49.640 It's been tried before.
00:11:51.180 Well, you know when I say that?
00:11:52.240 And I sort of take it as a half of truth.
00:11:55.740 Has it really ever been tried?
00:11:58.480 We've been lied to about so much stuff in this country.
00:12:02.800 So we've been told it's been tried before.
00:12:06.800 But has it really?
00:12:09.680 You know, I don't know.
00:12:12.040 It's a good question.
00:12:14.260 Pinbar, can anybody imagine Biden doing any of this?
00:12:16.960 No, sir.
00:12:17.400 I cannot imagine Biden even being able to walk up the stairs of Air Force One
00:12:21.620 to do so.
00:12:22.880 Happy Columbus Day, America.
00:12:24.300 I should have started the show with that.
00:12:26.060 Columbus Day is so back.
00:12:27.520 Happy Columbus Day, folks.
00:12:28.760 All those celebrating.
00:12:31.200 Stella, we are proud to be Americans again.
00:12:33.840 Yes, indeed, we are, ma'am.
00:12:35.980 We are.
00:12:36.600 Absolutely.
00:12:37.780 I want to add that man's name to Montgomery Ward distribution list.
00:12:41.960 I appreciate you, Jim, over on Rumble.
00:12:46.660 Folks, before we go to break, I want to get to something because we're going to
00:12:50.100 talk about this a little bit later on in the show, but it's sort of just
00:12:54.940 blowing my mind.
00:12:56.300 Over the weekend, I was invited to have a friend who's a country singer on tour.
00:13:00.260 He goes by the name of Thomas Rhett, pretty big country singer.
00:13:03.300 I'll bring a clip.
00:13:04.320 I want to tell you why I want to talk about this.
00:13:07.480 It was over in Atlanta, which is where I spent part of my week.
00:13:33.600 Good friend, great American Thomas Rhett.
00:13:35.920 His father was a singer, Rhett Adkins.
00:13:40.260 So I was with him a few weeks ago in Vegas, and then I was with him as he's
00:13:45.440 wrapped up his tour for the year.
00:13:46.720 I was with him over the weekend in Atlanta and two places that are run by
00:13:52.560 Democrats.
00:13:53.980 Vegas, I never even got to this.
00:13:55.700 It was about two weeks ago.
00:13:58.660 An absolute hellhole.
00:14:00.580 I mean, to the next level.
00:14:02.580 Terrible.
00:14:03.480 Just a terrible, terrible.
00:14:04.600 Homeless people everywhere.
00:14:07.120 Now, the last time I was in Atlanta was probably four or five years ago.
00:14:11.860 So I'm back in Atlanta over the weekend and staying at what's the nicest hotel in
00:14:17.360 Atlanta.
00:14:18.580 And I'm not saying this to gloat or bloviate.
00:14:20.600 It wasn't particularly expensive.
00:14:22.700 And I booked it with points.
00:14:23.760 So it was free.
00:14:25.260 But from traveling so much for work, you accumulate a lot of points.
00:14:28.420 So I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton in Atlanta.
00:14:31.180 And I walk out the door and I get an Uber to go get breakfast.
00:14:36.280 And this is what is down the street.
00:14:37.900 Just miles and miles of homeless.
00:14:55.940 And that was just a short 30 second clip of it. 0.99
00:14:58.000 But miles and miles of garbage. 0.99
00:15:02.940 Homelessness. 0.95
00:15:03.380 I mean, as we drove by, I'm watching this guy shoot up heroin or somebody who was there
00:15:07.540 heroin or fentanyl.
00:15:08.480 I don't know whatever drugs you inject with a needle.
00:15:11.880 But this is outside the nicest hotel in Atlanta, downtown Atlanta.
00:15:17.260 Now, the reason I say Atlanta is these are the people who came after Donald Trump and everyone 0.60
00:15:20.700 because he was a criminal.
00:15:22.140 What they told us instead of worrying about their own city. 1.00
00:15:26.180 Which, I mean, I can't really be talking from a New York standpoint, but is just a total crap hole. 0.99
00:15:34.920 I mean, the streets smell like urine. 0.99
00:15:37.060 There's drugs all over them.
00:15:39.740 And this is just another example of a Republican-run state with a Marxist-dem-run city.
00:15:46.240 And we're worried about everywhere else in the world and sending money to everywhere else.
00:15:55.160 Sorry about the rant.
00:15:56.220 I just had to get to that because it literally, it just blew my mind seeing inside of America.
00:16:01.340 And I thought it was just a Vegas thing until I was down in Atlanta.
00:16:04.880 And I realized this is far worse than just Vegas.
00:16:07.360 This is Atlanta.
00:16:08.140 It's probably happening in every other blue city across the country as well.
00:16:12.120 We're going to take a quick break here, folks.
00:16:13.320 On the other side of this quick break, much, much more to come on The Great America Show.
00:16:15.760 Please stay with us.
00:16:16.820 We are coming right back.
00:16:18.280 I promise.
00:16:25.240 Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here on The Great America Show.
00:16:28.180 Let's get to a few more of your questions before we move on to some more news.
00:16:33.100 So is this the end of Hamas, Finbar asks?
00:16:36.600 It's certainly the start, the beginning of the end, in my opinion.
00:16:40.900 I mean, there's going to have to be some sort of regime change there in Gaza for this whole thing to work.
00:16:46.640 I don't believe you could have them staying in power after everything that's gone on.
00:16:50.260 I don't think it's necessarily going to work out like that.
00:16:54.100 Let's get to another comment here from Lauren over on YouTube.
00:16:57.120 Like I said, we don't shy away from the hateful comments or anything like that.
00:17:00.700 This is The Great America Show, where we all have the right to speak freely.
00:17:06.840 Do we necessarily agree with each other?
00:17:08.300 No.
00:17:08.560 I'm sure there's plenty of things you disagree with me on, and I'm sure I disagree with you guys on a few things, but that's what makes America great.
00:17:14.820 Lauren, Trump would have been the first Nobel winner, was found guilty of felonies, and was found liable for sexual abuse.
00:17:20.560 An appeals court upheld his $83 million sexual abuse ruling last month.
00:17:24.180 Yes, you're absolutely right, Lauren.
00:17:26.620 Yeah, the court did uphold it.
00:17:28.820 Now, try bringing that to a court anywhere else in America, beside Marxist-run New York, where there was no jury.
00:17:37.720 It was a bench case from the judge.
00:17:40.280 Try bringing that case anywhere else in the world, where you can go back and tell someone 40 years ago you were raped in a Bergdorf-Goodman fitting room that nobody believes.
00:17:49.840 Nobody with any sort of brain or self-respect believes that, of course.
00:17:54.180 Go do that in any other court outside of a Marxist-run court that has Trump derangement syndrome to the next level.
00:18:02.840 Not exactly going to work out.
00:18:06.500 Mary, over on Facebook, we love our President Trump because he is the best yet.
00:18:11.060 Yeah, I agree with you.
00:18:13.280 We got another comment from Lauren over on YouTube.
00:18:16.080 Perkins Physicians Public Report Donald Trump received a flu shot and COVID booster at his doctor's appointment last week.
00:18:21.980 Yeah.
00:18:23.180 That's the great thing about America is you should be allowed. 0.75
00:18:27.120 Now, I don't agree with it to get the COVID vaccine or any of those dumb boosters or even the flu vaccine.
00:18:34.360 I mean, a lot of people are convinced the flu vaccine, I think, hits like 15 strains of the flu.
00:18:38.700 And I can't remember the last time they actually hit the right one where it stopped the flu.
00:18:46.420 Something we're going to look up.
00:18:47.520 But I think it's been a very long time.
00:18:49.560 So I don't agree with it.
00:18:50.980 But Donald Trump's an elderly man and he believes that that's what's best for him.
00:18:56.860 Not being forced.
00:18:58.880 See the difference between the draconian mandate versus electing to do something.
00:19:08.200 That's the difference, Lauren.
00:19:10.540 What was done to us in 2020 and 2019 was criminal.
00:19:16.340 Locking people down, forcing you, pretty much holding you down, saying, take this jab. 0.98
00:19:20.740 Number one, you're going to die.
00:19:23.640 Number two, you can't come out to dinner. 0.97
00:19:25.820 Number three, you have to stay locked in your house.
00:19:28.020 Number four, you can't get on a plane.
00:19:29.400 You can't leave the country.
00:19:31.420 That's the difference between Donald Trump and a Marxist-run regime.
00:19:36.280 Nobody's forcing us to do anything.
00:19:40.620 So let's get back to President Trump's monumental day and the monumental day, like I said, for the rest of the world.
00:19:49.860 President Trump at his press conference says today is the day that we finally have the chance to change the world.
00:19:57.240 Today, for the first time, anyone can remember we have a once in a lifetime chance to put the old feuds and bitter hatreds behind us.
00:20:04.060 And that's why so many people in this room, they didn't get along.
00:20:09.360 Some did, some didn't.
00:20:10.760 But they're getting along now.
00:20:11.880 This has brought the people together.
00:20:13.300 This is the first time the Middle East crisis has brought people together as opposed to driving them apart. 0.98
00:20:19.140 And to declare that our future will not be ruled by the fights of the generations past, which is foolish.
00:20:25.440 So together, let us continue in the spirit of cooperation and goodwill that has finally brought us to this incredible historic breakthrough.
00:20:35.260 If we do together, we will reach the Middle East's incredible destiny, a safe and prosperous and beautiful crossroads of culture and commerce, faith in humanity and geographic center.
00:20:49.660 This will be the geographic center of the world.
00:20:52.020 As it should be.
00:20:56.300 President Trump, I can't think of anyone better fit to lead the world than Donald Trump.
00:21:05.200 It's truly, truly remarkable the things that he's able to accomplish.
00:21:08.960 Now, perhaps my favorite, actually, let me say second favorite because it would be very selfish of me to say this is my favorite part.
00:21:15.580 My second favorite part is the fact that the Marxist Dems are now tongue-tied.
00:21:23.700 Having to admit what they've been hiding from saying for the last 10 years.
00:21:30.340 That Donald Trump is not Hitler.
00:21:34.460 Donald Trump is not the purveyor of World War III.
00:21:37.540 But that Donald Trump is a good, decent man who wants what's best for the world.
00:21:46.520 I mean, what political gain does it get Donald Trump to do this?
00:21:51.320 They're going to hold the Nobel Peace Prize over his head forever or any sort of peace prizes forever.
00:21:56.680 But as Donald Trump said from the beginning, my best revenge is success.
00:22:06.980 And I can't think of a more successful first eight months of an administration going back and looking at history at any given point than what this man has been able to accomplish in this short period of time.
00:22:20.980 Do we want to see more arrests out of the Department of Justice?
00:22:23.940 Absolutely.
00:22:25.620 But what he's been able to do for the border and immigration, for world peace.
00:22:31.960 I mean, he spent the first eight months working on issues that pertain to America, but don't pertain to America at the same time in order to ensure America's safety. 0.98
00:22:41.660 Because we had a lame duck idiot of a president for the last four years. 1.00
00:22:49.940 I mean, the man was just dumb. 1.00
00:22:51.820 Putting aside his dementia and elderly issues, he's always been dumb. 1.00
00:22:55.780 I mean, everyone has said this about this man, including Barack Hussein Obama. 0.99
00:23:01.940 I mean, Joe Biden has been brained at his whole entire life. 1.00
00:23:05.140 So, you know, you could use the excuse that he's got dementia, but the guy's always been a total fool and a total idiot. 1.00
00:23:13.720 So I don't know how you can get around that. 1.00
00:23:18.680 So back to my second favorite part of today is the fact that the Democrats, the Marxist Dems, finally, tongue tied, have to admit that Donald Trump is just a great American and a great human being.
00:23:33.120 Let's go to Leon Panetta first.
00:23:35.140 This achievement, and it is a significant achievement, would not have happened without the United States leadership.
00:23:42.200 President Trump deserves a lot of credit for bringing the parties together.
00:23:47.680 Oh, you think so, Mr. Panetta, former CIA director? 0.99
00:23:52.180 No crap. 0.96
00:23:56.040 Let's look at Caitlin Collins, or as I call her, Dylan Mulvaney and Wolf Blitzer. 0.97
00:24:01.000 And welcome back to CNN's breaking news coverage, as we are covering a historic moment here in Israel, because for the first time in two years, over two years, 738 days, Hamas holds no living hostages in its captivity for the first time.
00:24:17.800 Imagine that.
00:24:21.920 Imagine that.
00:24:24.360 How about Anthony Blinken?
00:24:26.420 If you guys are on Twitter, you probably saw Anthony Blinken over the weekend.
00:24:30.220 Let's take a look at what Anthony Blinken had to say and President Trump's response to it.
00:24:34.860 Blinken says it's good that President Trump adopted and built on the plan that the Biden administration developed.
00:24:42.280 What do you think about that?
00:24:43.760 Everybody knows it's a joke.
00:24:45.320 Look, they didn't do it.
00:24:46.700 They did such a bad job.
00:24:47.960 This should have never happened.
00:24:49.620 This wouldn't have even happened.
00:24:50.820 That was weak leadership.
00:24:52.340 Terrible.
00:24:52.900 And the same thing with Russia.
00:24:54.540 Russia, Ukraine.
00:24:56.820 If just a decent president, not a great president like me.
00:25:02.740 Not a great president.
00:25:03.980 If a decent president was in, you wouldn't have had the Russia, Ukraine. 0.91
00:25:07.720 And this is, I would say, even more so.
00:25:09.580 This was bad policy by Biden and by Obama.
00:25:14.740 Remember when B.B. came and he begged that you not do what they were doing with Iran? 0.93
00:25:19.360 You remember that, right?
00:25:20.440 Begged him.
00:25:21.380 And they wouldn't even listen to him.
00:25:23.120 Everything they did was the opposite of what you should have done.
00:25:26.660 And it's nice that they try and take a little credit.
00:25:29.160 That was years ago.
00:25:30.660 And the mistakes were made years ago.
00:25:32.620 And it was both by Biden and Obama.
00:25:35.100 Nobody believes that Biden or Obama did anything to create world peace.
00:25:40.440 They were all in on this massive coup to appease the military industrial complex.
00:25:48.300 Perhaps my favorite moment, third favorite moment, I should say, today was Donald Trump getting a hold of Macron on stage.
00:25:55.700 If you ever watched, if you never watched, I beg you to watch it next time.
00:26:00.840 When Donald Trump goes in for a handshake to meet somebody, he does this thing where he takes your hand and he he pulls it towards you, towards him. 0.92
00:26:10.000 Just take a look at what he did to Macron today, because this makes me so happy, because Macron is just such a little puke, a little repressed French man. 0.95
00:26:18.060 Who hates America, in my opinion, hates Donald Trump, for sure. 0.86
00:26:23.560 But you remember there is a video a few weeks out of them all making fun of Donald Trump for Donald Trump not getting credit.
00:26:29.520 For creating world peace.
00:26:31.260 Macron thought it was funny.
00:26:32.980 Now, Donald Trump never commented on it publicly.
00:26:35.900 But after watching this handshake, something tells me Donald Trump saw the video.
00:26:39.780 Here it is.
00:26:40.360 Coat and tie.
00:26:41.060 It's usually a flak jacket and a helmet.
00:26:42.740 So interesting change.
00:26:44.440 As we see the president there with the French president, Macron, in Sharm el-Sheikh, the leaders of some 35 countries, according to the president, gathering there for a peace summit.
00:26:54.620 Now, there is a bro shake.
00:26:56.300 If ever I've looked, we won't let go.
00:26:58.360 OK, you let go.
00:26:59.000 No, I'm going to let go.
00:26:59.660 All right.
00:26:59.900 There we go.
00:27:00.380 As they assemble for the class photo there.
00:27:03.080 Let's bring in Martha McAllen. 1.00
00:27:06.640 There was no bro handshake there.
00:27:08.800 John Roberts was a numbskull over on Fox.
00:27:11.440 That Donald Trump showing Macron, who's daddy.
00:27:15.340 And don't ever get it twisted, you little beta man.
00:27:18.600 We're taking one more quick break for you, folks.
00:27:20.200 We're going to come right back.
00:27:21.120 I want to tell you, give you an update.
00:27:22.500 What's going on in Portland?
00:27:26.540 And I'm thinking, as I see these protesters going, I'm thinking I got to take a flight out to Portland this week.
00:27:32.180 See for myself what the hell's going on over there.
00:27:34.320 We're taking a quick break.
00:27:35.440 When we return, I'm going to tell you what they did over the weekend.
00:27:37.860 And it wasn't fun.
00:27:45.060 Thanks for staying with us, folks, here on The Great America Show.
00:27:48.260 As always, we appreciate you tuning in to any show that we do live or any show in general.
00:27:53.120 But when we go live, we like to take your questions as my thank you to you guys tuning in and interacting.
00:27:58.300 As always, we get a great chat over on Rumble.
00:28:02.160 You guys are awesome.
00:28:03.100 You guys are terrific.
00:28:03.860 We're trying on Facebook and YouTube.
00:28:06.120 We got a decent crew over there, but YouTube hamstrung us a little bit, and they don't like to let us get the message out there.
00:28:13.320 Sometimes they do.
00:28:14.000 Sometimes they don't.
00:28:14.680 But most of the time they don't.
00:28:15.600 So we thank Rumble and our great people over on Rumble who join us each and every night.
00:28:20.360 So I told you what I did over the weekend out in Atlanta.
00:28:23.140 And by the way, someone commented where to stay next time in Atlanta.
00:28:27.040 I don't think I'll be back to Atlanta anytime soon.
00:28:29.300 Unless, of course, Fonnie Willis is getting arrested, then I'll go down to Atlanta.
00:28:33.660 But no plans to go back there anytime soon.
00:28:36.560 So I told you what I did over the weekend.
00:28:38.820 I wish you could all tell me what you did, but it's not likely.
00:28:42.180 So I'm going to tell you what the folks in good old Oregon did over the weekend.
00:28:47.160 And it's not a pretty sight.
00:28:49.900 I got to tell you, it's not a pretty sight.
00:28:52.200 Let's see if we can get it up on the screen here for you guys, because I had to see it.
00:28:57.860 It means you guys have to see it, because I can't explain to you how bad it is.
00:29:04.400 Here you go.
00:29:04.880 This is what happened over the weekend in Portland.
00:29:09.080 Naked bike riders join ICE protests in Portland.
00:29:12.120 Protests turned into a clash with ICE leading to several arrests.
00:29:15.760 Now, thank God this is censored, but I was forced on Twitter to see the actual video, but uncensored.
00:29:21.680 And it's something you can never unsee.
00:29:24.140 Absolutely disgusting and repulsive. 0.67
00:29:25.980 But these folks, these protesters, took to the streets of Portland, some of them completely butt naked, to protest ICE. 0.95
00:29:34.960 Can you imagine going into work, folks?
00:29:38.760 I assume most of you guys have jobs or retired.
00:29:42.100 But can you imagine going into work on Monday and your boss says to you, what'd you do this weekend?
00:29:50.600 Now, I'm talking to any other place besides from Portland, because obviously there's some sort of mental imbalance there or something in the water.
00:29:57.800 I know that when I worked for the great Lou Dobbs, who wasn't particularly violent, at least not with me.
00:30:05.600 I know when I worked for him, if I came to work when we were working together in an office and he said, partner, and he often did.
00:30:12.340 What'd you do over the weekend?
00:30:13.580 You know, tell him whatever.
00:30:16.360 And we talk.
00:30:17.220 If I ever told him I did that, he'd probably pick up the biggest book he could find and beat me over the head with it.
00:30:23.940 Rightfully so.
00:30:25.460 But can you imagine going to work and telling the people you work with, I rode to the streets butt naked, protesting ICE? 0.99
00:30:38.200 I mean, these people are mentally insane. 0.96
00:30:42.040 This is far worse than anything I've seen in a very long time. 0.98
00:30:45.700 I mean, it's up there with almost the summer of love stuff.
00:30:49.900 But these people drove through the streets.
00:30:51.660 Everything out.
00:30:55.560 Protesting ICE.
00:30:57.300 Now, the ICE officers, I have to assume, probably had a pretty fun weekend battering with some of these people.
00:31:03.720 Here we go.
00:31:04.620 Here's a video we've got here.
00:31:06.300 Let's see if we can blow it up for you so you can get a better view.
00:31:10.860 The protest outside the ICE facility turned into chaos as the crowd getting aggressive with federal agents making arrests.
00:31:16.700 Agents using crowd control munitions from the roof of the facility.
00:31:21.180 Massive turnout right now.
00:31:22.400 Still developing.
00:31:23.080 Let's take a look.
00:31:23.560 Let's take a look. 1.00
00:31:27.700 Oh, shit! 1.00
00:31:29.700 Come on, bro! 1.00
00:31:31.700 What are you doing?
00:31:33.700 Go! 0.95
00:31:35.700 Go! 0.95
00:31:37.700 Go! 0.95
00:31:39.700 Come on! 0.61
00:31:41.700 No!
00:31:43.700 Get out there! 0.99
00:31:45.700 Get out there! 0.99
00:31:47.700 Get out there! 0.99
00:31:49.700 Go! 0.95
00:31:51.700 Come on! 0.61
00:31:53.700 Come on! 0.61
00:31:55.700 Oh, it's nice to see the ice agents doing their job.
00:32:25.700 Folks, I don't think you can script this stuff into a movie with what we're seeing right now in America.
00:32:45.720 And the hate and the spew is coming from the federal government.
00:32:49.520 In some cases, state and local governments and others. 0.74
00:32:52.300 Like a big old J.B. Pritzker, who's running his big fat mouth, daring President Trump to come arrest him. 1.00
00:33:01.140 I mean, it's all hyperbolic bullshit, in my opinion. 1.00
00:33:03.900 But this is the hate that these people are spewing upon our federal agents. 0.99
00:33:10.000 We're just simply doing their job protecting America.
00:33:12.560 I mean, this is the world we're living in now.
00:33:23.780 These people are getting more violent.
00:33:25.340 They're getting more unhinged. 0.99
00:33:26.660 And now we look at these people, these psychopaths, driving through the streets, naked in their gay garb or whatever gay flags they have there. 1.00
00:33:38.520 And we laugh at them now. 0.99
00:33:39.980 But if you think about it, you look at every single one of these shooters that we've had in the last few years.
00:33:48.520 It'll be the Trump assassin, Charlie Kirk assassin, whatever you want to look at.
00:33:52.780 And you can see each and every one of them fitting into these parades. 1.00
00:33:59.760 All a bunch of freaks.
00:34:07.180 But this is what the left and the mainstream media and these left-wing Marxist politicians are driving in America. 0.88
00:34:14.040 They're driving hate.
00:34:15.940 They're driving anger.
00:34:17.240 And I hate to say it, but it only leads me to believe that the mass casualties from these freaks is going to get worse.
00:34:29.160 I mean, if you folks out there legally own a gun or a weapon in a state where you're allowed to, I encourage you to carry it every single day, everywhere you go.
00:34:41.560 Because nobody's truly safe in this country with what we're seeing, the hate we're seeing spewed from the left.
00:34:56.780 Nobody's safe.
00:34:58.680 It's not hyperbole.
00:35:00.740 It's the truth, and we've seen it.
00:35:02.460 These unhinged lunatics who are being driven by, whether it be the forums on Reddit, politicians, the amount of hate in this country on the left right now is at levels we've never seen before.
00:35:24.740 So I encourage you all to protect yourselves and protect your families. 0.84
00:35:29.340 I'm not saying go out and harm anybody.
00:35:32.460 But just make sure you're protected.
00:35:37.780 I've told you here, I've carried a gun almost every single day of my adult life since turning 18.
00:35:45.120 I hope to God I never have to use it.
00:35:47.300 And pray I never have to use it.
00:35:49.380 Because it would be a horrible day.
00:35:52.200 But I know that when I'm somewhere, I'm protecting myself and anyone around me.
00:35:58.220 Regardless of anything.
00:35:59.180 But this is a scary world we're living in now, folks.
00:36:04.760 It is a scary, scary world. 1.00
00:36:07.860 And if the left doesn't tone it down and get their idiots under control, it's going to get worse and people are going to start getting hurt. 1.00
00:36:14.940 And the good guys are going to start acting before the bad guys. 1.00
00:36:22.200 And that's just the truth, what I believe is going to happen.
00:36:26.780 Because people aren't going to tolerate this much longer.
00:36:30.460 They're not going to tolerate these freaks trying to take over society. 0.98
00:36:33.120 And scare everybody.
00:36:37.940 Because that's what they want.
00:36:39.000 They want us to wake up every morning scared.
00:36:42.360 And it's quite the opposite effect on me.
00:36:44.580 I'm not.
00:36:45.400 And I'll never cower or bow down to them.
00:36:51.160 And I think that's the sentiment of a lot of people.
00:36:53.500 I mean, we fought for everything we've gotten.
00:36:56.780 And these freaks think they're just going to come in here and say this is what's going to happen.
00:37:00.840 And it's not going to work like that.
00:37:02.380 And it's not going to end well.
00:37:04.540 If that's what they truly believe.
00:37:06.140 So the left has got to stop their hateful rhetoric on people who do not fundamentally agree with their illegal mind thinking of that illegals should be allowed to stay here. 0.63
00:37:21.280 Or that they should be allowed to sell drugs in this country.
00:37:24.500 Or that they should be on assistance paid for by you and I.
00:37:30.100 I'm tired of it.
00:37:32.200 I just paid my taxes yesterday.
00:37:33.880 And I think to myself, why am I even paying these?
00:37:38.440 Why am I even paying taxes?
00:37:41.820 So I can go pay for some illegal to go to school?
00:37:46.400 So I can pay for some illegal to go to the hospital?
00:37:49.600 What about me?
00:37:51.600 Who's paying for me to go to the hospital?
00:37:54.200 Who paid for me to go to school?
00:37:56.940 Who's going to pay my social security when I turn 65?
00:38:00.920 Or who's going to pay my medical benefits?
00:38:02.800 God forbid something ever happens to me.
00:38:05.480 And I can no longer work.
00:38:10.300 It's the questions I ask myself often.
00:38:12.060 I'm sure a lot of you guys do as well.
00:38:17.220 And, you know, there's the mantra that always stuck with me.
00:38:19.440 And my grandmother used to tell me when I would tell her I need help.
00:38:22.580 She'd say, God helps them who help themselves.
00:38:24.600 And it's always stuck by me until this day.
00:38:29.080 She'd tell it to me since I was a kid.
00:38:30.440 God bless her. 1.00
00:38:31.060 She lived to 103 years old.
00:38:33.920 Polish blood.
00:38:35.160 I mean, tough as nails to the day she died.
00:38:39.360 And it's true. 0.56
00:38:40.760 God helps them who help themselves.
00:38:42.760 But we're finding ourselves, folks, in an increasingly disappointing world where we're being asked to pay for everybody for everything.
00:38:55.520 Ukraine, Russia.
00:38:56.660 Illegals at the southern border.
00:39:01.780 Housing, schooling, Medicare, Medicaid.
00:39:04.440 I mean, you go down the list.
00:39:10.760 Our police systems.
00:39:13.580 We pay for.
00:39:16.260 So we're rightfully tired of it.
00:39:19.820 But these left wing agitators think that they're going to try to force us into a position.
00:39:25.720 And it's not going to it's not going to work.
00:39:27.840 So that's my rant for that for the night.
00:39:30.060 I'll get to a few more of your questions before we wrap up here, because, as I said, it's always appreciated.
00:39:34.420 I always appreciate it that you guys tune into the show live.
00:39:40.760 Do you Wi-Fi whenever you're?
00:39:42.340 Oh, here we go.
00:39:43.280 Whenever you travel to Atlanta, stay in Peachtree City area.
00:39:45.460 Very clean.
00:39:46.000 Very safe.
00:39:46.540 Like I said, I don't think I'll be back in Atlanta any time soon.
00:39:50.620 Unless Fonnie Wills is getting arrested.
00:39:54.160 Starmer is an embarrassment. 1.00
00:39:55.480 Yeah, he's a total fool and just a lackey. 1.00
00:39:57.860 I don't know if you guys saw, but Justin Trudeau is apparently dating Katy Perry. 1.00
00:40:03.480 Yeah.
00:40:04.420 Talk about that relationship.
00:40:05.880 I always thought he was playing for the other team, but I guess I guess not.
00:40:12.520 It forces an honest reassessment of the Obama administration from Stratford over on Rumble.
00:40:17.880 Yeah, I think you're referring to them trying to end the wars that we've had.
00:40:23.620 And America being involved.
00:40:27.680 Casino doctor.
00:40:28.720 The Jewish communities in New York and New Jersey usually vote Democrat.
00:40:32.720 Hopefully no more.
00:40:33.900 Yeah, I hope this was an eye opener for the Jewish community.
00:40:37.320 I hope this was an eye opener for the community that overwhelmingly votes Democrat. 0.99
00:40:46.420 The Democrats don't give a shit about them, but don't feel bad because the Democrats don't give a shit about anybody. 0.99
00:40:51.660 But hopefully this was an eye opener to the Jewish Americans to see who has your back, to see who's going to go and fight for you. 0.99
00:41:01.540 And the Jewish people.
00:41:05.640 I hope this was an eye opener.
00:41:08.160 Because if it weren't for Donald Trump, this would have never, never happened.
00:41:12.040 But Strafer, Pin Hendetta and Bullshitter are lost in their own minds.
00:41:23.980 Leon Panetta, I guess you're speaking of, and Wolf Blitzer, absolutely hysterical.
00:41:32.860 Macron was asking Trump not to let go.
00:41:35.880 His wife was there and was going to slap him across the room. 1.00
00:41:39.520 Yeah, you're probably right. 0.96
00:41:40.680 Macron's wife apparently is a very, very strong smack.
00:41:44.540 You guys saw the video of her smacking the hell out of him when they got off the plane.
00:41:49.840 Pretty funny.
00:41:51.620 Trump was telling Macron to mat up and quit letting his wife abuse him.
00:41:55.140 I think it's in Macron's blood.
00:41:56.480 I think it's in the French blood to wave the flag and surrender. 0.56
00:42:00.340 And I said, jokingly, I have a lot of French friends from France, actually.
00:42:04.680 Casino doctor, the furries are multiplying.
00:42:07.140 I guess that's in response to the video.
00:42:10.680 Of Portland that's going on.
00:42:14.140 Yeah.
00:42:14.280 The furry thing is, when I was first told about what furries were, I didn't believe it.
00:42:19.440 My aunt, who's a school teacher, was telling me that she had a furry.
00:42:22.960 And I didn't believe it because it made zero sense.
00:42:25.180 You're telling me someone comes dressed as an animal and it made zero sense to me.
00:42:30.140 But you're absolutely right.
00:42:31.020 It's getting real weird.
00:42:32.260 In the 80s, they blamed the suicide rate in Portland due to all the rain and lack of sunshine. 0.93
00:42:39.120 It's a sick place.
00:42:40.640 I've been there. 0.97
00:42:41.120 It's not too beautiful.
00:42:43.620 They broke his clarinet.
00:42:45.440 I guess you're referring to the video of the ICE agents.
00:42:52.400 Schrafer, I might have done something like that as a party dare in my wild younger days.
00:42:57.280 But riding naked as a protest, I don't get it.
00:43:00.320 Yeah, none of us get it.
00:43:01.740 And I think you're probably right.
00:43:03.000 I would have going to college and being in a fraternity.
00:43:07.400 I was forced to do things I didn't want to do.
00:43:09.340 That would have been a tough one for me to swallow, especially with everyone with phones these days.
00:43:13.620 Never know what someone's going to catch on video, especially these people.
00:43:16.920 I mean, they're on the front pages of videos and stuff, and there's no shame driving around naked.
00:43:23.380 I mean, just weirdos, just total, total weirdos.
00:43:29.280 Let's see.
00:43:31.000 Lauren, I think this is our Democrat friend over on YouTube.
00:43:33.980 Military personnel and their families are increasingly relying on food banks and pantries to the economy and the shutdown.
00:43:39.940 There's a 30% uptick among soldiers.
00:43:43.140 Things are not going well here.
00:43:44.580 Well, Lauren, I encourage you to call your member of Congress or senators, wherever you're living, and tell them to open the government.
00:43:56.460 The Republicans have voted numerous times in the House to open the government.
00:44:00.540 Failed in the Senate every time because of that 60-vote threshold.
00:44:05.520 And Donald Trump says he's got the militaries back 100%.
00:44:08.760 They're going to get paid, and they are getting paid.
00:44:11.480 So maybe you should call your member of Congress and your senators and encourage them to stop holding this government hostage.
00:44:19.800 In five days, I think it's the No Kings rally, which Mike Johnson says after that, we'll probably see the government open back up.
00:44:27.280 The only people acting like kings and dictators are right now are the Democrats.
00:44:30.500 Let's not get that twisted. 0.97
00:44:32.520 Mark, over on Facebook, the trainees want you to scrape and submit or die.
00:44:37.660 They want us to submit to their level of thinking.
00:44:46.120 Otherwise, we're public enemy number one to them.
00:44:50.680 And that's going to be a problem.
00:44:53.840 Portland is making Seattle look peaceful.
00:44:55.480 Yeah.
00:44:55.940 Portland's, I mean, I don't know.
00:44:58.280 Just a rough place.
00:44:59.260 I feel bad for anyone who lives there.
00:45:00.440 But then, like I said, again, I live in New York, so it's not much better.
00:45:03.080 Don't take it personally if you live there, because it's not much better here.
00:45:06.900 At least right now it is, but it's not usually.
00:45:09.720 Seems like chaos, just for the sake of chaos, they would destroy themselves if left in isolation.
00:45:14.500 But we can get far away enough.
00:45:16.440 Yeah, you're absolutely right.
00:45:17.740 I think they just do it for fun at this point.
00:45:20.020 There's nothing really fun in it, though.
00:45:22.200 Casino doctor, I am over 60 years old.
00:45:24.920 Went to take money out of my IRA and that 10% penalty.
00:45:28.800 But then I find out Biden put on a 3% surrender tax as a penalty for those who don't pay the 10%.
00:45:34.400 Trump canceling it in November.
00:45:36.900 Yeah, I didn't know anything about that.
00:45:38.680 But that's the world that Biden's got us living in.
00:45:42.520 I mean, it made this economy so rough for people that they're now playing catch up with their bills.
00:45:50.820 And last but not least, let's take one more comment.
00:45:53.120 Everything is documented on camera today.
00:45:55.360 Imagine a potential employer receiving a highlight reel on you. 0.99
00:45:58.240 So, yeah, I'd be totally unemployable with some of the videos my friends have of me from college and doing stupid stuff. 0.98
00:46:04.880 But I own it. 0.92
00:46:05.960 I've never shied away from it.
00:46:08.100 I've never done anything illegal.
00:46:09.540 Just had some fun.
00:46:11.480 But that's the world we live in now.
00:46:12.520 Everything is on camera and everybody's going to be worried about what someone's got on you.
00:46:18.360 Terrible, terrible world to live in.
00:46:20.720 I've been told that the old days of no cell phones were far more fun.
00:46:26.680 But it's the world we're given, folks.
00:46:28.920 It is the world we are given.
00:46:31.720 That's all for us tonight, folks.
