The Great America Show - The Great America Sunday Show： February 1, 2026

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show. It's great to have you with

00:00:05.740 us on this beautiful day in America. Thanks so much for spending part of your evening with

00:00:09.400 us here. In just a moment, we're going to be joined by Stephen Gardner. He's host of

00:00:12.320 The Stephen Gardner Show, Great American, terrific friend of mine, terrific friend of

00:00:16.160 the show. He's going to be joining us to break down the biggest stories overtaking America

00:00:22.140 right now. We've got some new news to bring you tonight from Minneapolis, some news on

00:00:30.080 the fellow who was shot over the weekend and some of his past and some of the things that

00:00:35.680 he's done. Joe Biden literally crawling out of the woodwork, no pun intended, to bash

00:00:42.620 Trump. Haven't heard from the guy in weeks, months, but crawling out of the woodwork to

00:00:49.260 come undermine the office of the presidency. We all know what he did for the last four

00:00:53.440 years or the four years, rather, that he was in office. He should be the last one talking

00:00:58.400 because this is all a result of his doing. If Joe Biden didn't open our borders to these

00:01:03.620 illegal migrants that are in our country right now, we wouldn't have to be worrying about what's 1.00

00:01:08.740 happening in Minneapolis. We wouldn't have to worry about cities across America who are

00:01:13.160 being overrun by illegals. So this is all a doing of Joe Biden that Donald Trump is now

00:01:18.040 tasked with, quite honestly, cleaning up. So without further ado, I'm going to bring in

00:01:22.660 Alex, Alex, Stephen Gardner, host of the Stephen Gardner Show. Stephen, I'm getting ahead of

00:01:28.220 myself. Stephen Gardner, I want to thank you first last week, bringing me on. Stephen was

00:01:33.040 guest hosting the Alex Jones Show. That's on the top of my mind. So I want to first thank

00:01:37.540 you for that, Stephen. Thank you for joining me. It was awesome.

00:01:41.800 Let's let's begin with first President Trump. Just moments ago before heading out to Iowa,

00:01:47.500 doubling down now, we've been hearing conflicting stories. Yesterday, you had DHS's Greg Bovino

00:01:54.700 reportedly was removed from his duty as commanding officer in Minneapolis. Then we hear two hours

00:02:01.500 later, he actually wasn't. Then we hear an hour later that he's been pulled from his job. He's

00:02:06.800 going back to California and he's actually going to be retiring. That was from the Atlantic. And then

00:02:11.820 10 minutes later, we hear from Trish McGaughlin over at DHS that, in fact, that's not true. And

00:02:17.440 he's still over there. So conflicting, conflicting, conflicting. We then hear after that, that President

00:02:22.360 Trump had a two hour meeting with Kristi Noem and that he's not happy with her and she's being

00:02:28.100 fired. President Trump, before departing outside the White House, had this to say about Kristi Noem.

00:02:35.720 I am. Yeah, I think she's doing a very good job. I think she's doing a very good job. The border is

00:02:45.620 totally secure. You know, you forget we had a border that I inherited where millions of people

00:02:51.860 were coming through. Now we have a border where no one is coming through. They come into our country 1.00

00:02:57.340 only legally. So you have to remember those things. You know, people forget as soon as you accomplish

00:03:02.780 something. It goes into history and nobody ever wants to talk about it. We had a border that

00:03:08.360 caused all of this problem. Biden caused and the Democrats caused this problem. They allowed

00:03:14.300 tens of millions of people to come in. Many of them were murderers. Many were drug dealers,

00:03:20.080 drug addicts, people from mental institutions. They allowed these people to violate our country,

00:03:26.760 to come into our country. And that's what we're talking about. So if you remember, 1.00

00:03:31.300 we had a horrible border, the worst border we've ever had ever in history. People were

00:03:37.340 flowing through by, we think, 25 million people, not to mention drugs and everything else. And

00:03:44.280 that border is absolutely closed.

00:03:53.380 Steven, he never shies away from a camera. He's never met a camera he doesn't like. And

00:03:57.940 I think it's such a breath of fresh air. I mentioned Joe Biden briefly there in the monologue,

00:04:04.820 you know, president who didn't come from the camera at all. Yet President Trump comes out here

00:04:09.940 and says, listen, I'm happy with her. She's staying on the job. No need for rumors. Let me get your

00:04:16.640 thoughts on that first. She's doing a great job. Obviously, she is somebody that they feel that they

00:04:24.160 could impeach easier than President Trump. So they're using the death of Alex Preddy as an

00:04:30.300 opportunity to say, ICE is a bunch of killers. They're Nazi foot soldiers. They're shock troopers 0.99

00:04:36.880 for Donald Trump, all under the control of Kristi Noem. We must go after her. And now I'm reading

00:04:44.120 up to 70% of Democrats are saying, if a bill comes to the floor, we will try to impeach her. 0.99

00:04:49.400 I'm sure President Trump is not happy about this death that has happened. It's unfortunate

00:04:55.340 as you look into it, this man walked himself into a really stupid situation. And unfortunately, 1.00

00:05:01.660 the consequence was his life. But I don't believe that President Trump is planning to get rid of

00:05:07.260 Kristi Noem. In fact, he said he's not. They're going to be pulling out and moving over to the next

00:05:12.820 area where they will go after the murderers and the rapers and the people that do horrible things to

00:05:18.360 children. So what do you say to the folks, Stephen, who say that President Trump has caved? And what

00:05:24.080 do they say? He ducked his taco. Trump, I don't know, whatever the leftists say, you know, anytime

00:05:29.680 they don't like what President Trump's doing. What do you say to them who's saying, you know,

00:05:34.400 why is President Trump making any deal with Tim Walz? Why is he making any deal with Jacob Frey?

00:05:40.480 Obviously, you know, anytime anyone dies, it's not a good circumstance. But, you know, I keep saying

00:05:48.620 it's time and place. Why were you there? And what were you doing there? We find out that Alex

00:05:53.200 Preddy just a week ago, CNN's reporting, had a rib broken after getting tackled by agencies. He

00:05:59.320 attempted to impede an immigration operation. Like I said, a week before that, as they were going to

00:06:05.560 arrest another illegal migrant who broke the law. So this is a man who's, I mean, no stranger to

00:06:17.180 the repercussions of impeding an investigation, comes with a fully loaded gun there. I just don't

00:06:26.320 see how in what circumstance that ends. Well, if I'm going to go to a, you know, stop one of these

00:06:35.940 guys, I'm not pulling up to a border patrol agent, an ICE agent, even with a loaded gun. If I'm going

00:06:42.580 there to protest, I damn well ain't pulling up with a loaded gun. Well, it's a stupid place to even 1.00

00:06:50.280 fight ICE. If you're in a sanctuary city, you're going to be arrested and you're going to be back on 1.00

00:06:54.760 the street in one hour. So why, why would you put up a fight to the point where there's seven or eight

00:06:59.660 grown men with fully, uh, you know, operational weapons that can end your life. Um, but as far

00:07:06.340 as, uh, did we just see, uh, Trump tacos, Trump always chickens out. I don't think so. I think he's

00:07:12.840 trying to bring down the temperature. I think he's trying to remind the American people. The reason

00:07:18.100 that we are in Minnesota is it's full of illegal immigrants, the worst of the worst people that do 1.00

00:07:25.140 horrible things to children, people that do horrible things to women, they traffic, they do 1.00

00:07:30.080 drugs. People have died because of them. People will die because of them. So I think he's reminding

00:07:35.740 them, listen, the entire mission was for us to go in, get the criminal illegals and get out and move 0.81

00:07:42.040 on to the next town. But because you have the confluence of all of the fraud that Tim Walls

00:07:47.740 covered up all of the Somali stuff, you've got Jacob Fry, the mayor, uh, calling for violence

00:07:53.940 against people, the governor calling for violence. All of this just came to a head. And next thing,

00:08:00.080 you know, everybody's out there fighting ice. And the entire reason ice is there is to get the

00:08:06.440 criminals. Now, I personally believe that this is a well-coordinated, uh, situation, not only with

00:08:13.560 the attacks, but think about this. Why on earth would you unleash the, the anger of the people of

00:08:20.860 Minnesota? It's to cover up all of the fraud. If they can, if they can distract you from what will

00:08:27.340 likely put governor Tim Walls in jail for a very long time and take that evil and push it over onto

00:08:33.980 Trump's shock troops, that's exactly what they did. And so I think president Trump is going, wait a

00:08:39.920 minute, let, let's get back to the mission, which was we're here to get the murderers and the rapers

00:08:45.220 and move on to the next town. And that's exactly what he did. And on the flip side, Steven, you hear

00:08:50.320 the Democrats saying, Oh, well, this is a Donald Trump trying to shy away from the Epstein files. He's

00:08:56.600 he, he had someone killed. Uh, he, he had a Renee good shot in the face after she tried to run over

00:09:03.980 an ice agent and Alex Freddie, who, by the way, nobody's talking about it, but in that video,

00:09:09.260 he takes an innocent bystander woman, takes her by the neck and slams her down on the ground,

00:09:15.380 thinking it's an ice agent. Um, he had them killed because he he's nervous of the, um,

00:09:21.480 the Epstein files. And I'm sitting here and I'm like, how dumb are these people? They're either 0.99

00:09:26.840 dumb, complicit, uh, or demented. Steven, I want to take a quick break here on the other side of 1.00

00:09:32.280 this quick break. We're going to get to what a Joseph Robinette Biden had to say. We've also got

00:09:37.680 a recording of, uh, what some of these deranged leftists are leaving on the voicemails because

00:09:43.120 these people are being doxxed on the voicemail of some of these ice agents phones. Think about sick. 0.93

00:09:49.380 We're taking a quick break here, folks. We're coming right back with the great Steven Gardner,

00:09:53.120 host of the Steven Gardner show. Thanks everybody for staying with us here on the great America

00:10:03.160 show. We're joined by Steven Gardner, my pal and good friend of the show and great American

00:10:08.220 Steven, uh, these Marxist leftists are going absolutely berserk. They're losing their minds. 0.90

00:10:14.380 Uh, I want to play a clip of what some of these now viewer discretion is advised.

00:10:19.120 I love that saying. It's like what we're told when we're about to watch a bad movie,

00:10:23.940 uh, with the kids, uh, what some of these Marxist leftists are leaving on the voicemails of ice

00:10:31.240 agents that are being doxxed. Of course, let's take a listen to see what they had to say.

00:10:35.260 And a warning viewer discretion is advised. You're a fascist pig. You should kill yourself. I hope your 1.00

00:10:43.480 wife dies. I hope your mom and dad dies. I hope everything wrong that could go in your life 1.00

00:10:50.440 happens. I hope you have the most miserable life. I hope you get hit by a bus. I hope you're paralyzed 1.00

00:10:56.140 and your wife leaves you and starts getting by BBCs every day. You are a traitor to the American 1.00

00:11:03.900 people, to the values that made our very country. You should kill yourself. You're disgusting. 1.00

00:11:11.020 I hate you. Everyone hates you. You're a murder. And all of your friends are murderers. And your bosses 1.00

00:11:18.980 are a bunch of pedophiles. There you have it. This is the mentality of these, um, internet gangsters, 1.00

00:11:27.000 Steven, who come out here who are, you know, backed by George Soros and the, the ilk. That's

00:11:33.300 the kind of rhetoric that these people have. These supposed good people is what they're,

00:11:38.660 what they're telling us. These people who come out here with good intentions. I've never heard

00:11:43.320 someone speak like that in my life. Yeah. Uh, that's disgusting. I mean, this guy's saying that

00:11:49.960 they're anti-American, like really, is this how Americans talk to other Americans? Uh, that is

00:11:55.900 disgusting and disturbing. Um, I'm, I'm pretty sure in 2026, we have caller ID. Like, uh, I may be

00:12:03.740 thinking that this guy, they should, uh, roll by him and, uh, maybe just, uh, publicly announce who this

00:12:10.740 guy is. I mean, that is disgusting. I actually think you're not allowed to tell somebody to end 0.96

00:12:15.820 their own life, uh, like that, but this is disturbing. It just goes to show you there's a

00:12:21.540 lot of mental illness, uh, when it comes to left versus right. And hopefully this guy doesn't act

00:12:28.080 on it. Um, you know, this guy's saying, you know, I hope you kill yourself. I hope horrible thing. 1.00

00:12:32.820 I hope this guy finds Jesus and like turns his life around, remembers that we're all children of God.

00:12:38.800 We're all just humans here doing our very best and stop it. You're literally standing in the way

00:12:44.460 of them arresting the very people you described. So you've now ascribed the traits and the

00:12:50.380 characteristic and the bad behavior of the criminals onto the guy that's there making $50,000 a year or

00:12:57.040 something to pick those bad guys up. It's crazy to me. Yeah. It's so sick. And to, to add a smoke to

00:13:04.020 the fire, no pun intended, Joseph Robinette Biden, who, as I said, is responsible solely for everything

00:13:12.660 that's going on right now because of what he did as president had this to say, what has unfolded in

00:13:18.740 Minneapolis is, but now I'm not sure. Um, I'm probably about 50% sure that he wrote this himself,

00:13:24.300 um, in crayon and then was, you know, fixed and doctored up by somebody. What has unfolded in

00:13:30.280 Minneapolis this past month betrays our most basic values as Americans. What a diplomat, huh?

00:13:35.680 We're not a nation that guns down our citizens in the streets. We're not a nation that allows our

00:13:40.220 citizens to be brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights. We're not a nation that

00:13:45.040 tramples the fourth amendment and tolerates our neighbors being terrorized. People in Minnesota

00:13:49.660 have stood strong, helping community members in unimaginable circumstances, speaking out against

00:13:55.580 injustices when they see it and holding our government accountable to those people. Minnesotans

00:14:00.660 have reminded us what is to be an American. They have suffered enough at the hands of this

00:14:05.380 administration. Violence and terror have no place in our United States of America, especially when our

00:14:10.480 own government targeting American citizens, no single person can destroy what America stands for,

00:14:16.260 believes in not even a president. If we are all Americans stand up and speak out, we know who we are.

00:14:22.120 And it's time to show the world. More importantly, it's time to show ourselves.

00:14:27.460 I'm not even going to read the rest of him because he refers to his wife as Dr. Jill, and she's not a 0.83

00:14:32.820 doctor. But this is a man, Stephen, who's responsible for everything that's gone on. Notice how he doesn't

00:14:39.780 say one word about the illegals. Notice how he doesn't say one word about the rampant Somali fraud. 1.00

00:14:46.160 Notice how he doesn't say anything about the child rapists, the child, the murderers who these

00:14:51.280 ICE agents are going to arrest. It's just all, I mean, nonsense and more lies from Joseph Robinette 0.94

00:15:00.880 Biden. Yeah, I mean, as President Trump said at the top of the hour in this video, none of this would

00:15:08.540 be happening if Joseph Robinette Biden had not allowed 20 plus million illegal immigrants to come 0.98

00:15:15.340 into the country. The ICE agents were not there for Alex Pretty. They were there for the guy who

00:15:23.540 strangled his wife to death. They were there for the drug cartel, the gangster, the person who does

00:15:29.840 horrible, horrible things to little children. I mean, just disgusting people that they are now suddenly 0.98

00:15:38.300 that's who you're standing up for. I don't know. We're going to see some arrests. I saw earlier Tom

00:15:45.700 Homan said that they have the names. Kash Patel also confirmed that they have the names. And Tom

00:15:53.940 Homan said, listen, if you're going to publicly expose ICE agents, then we're going to publicly expose

00:16:00.220 you. We'll be sharing your name and we'll be reaching out to your employer. And let's just see what

00:16:05.280 they do when they find out that you're the person breaking into a hotel or threatening to kill an ICE

00:16:11.320 agent. So how do you think this all plays out? Do you think he ultimately pulls out ICE from

00:16:17.000 Minnesota? It seems, Stephen, the big picture here, which a lot of people are missing, is not just that

00:16:23.180 these ICE agents are arresting these terrible, terrible illegals, but the Somalians, the ones who run 1.00

00:16:31.260 these multi-million dollar. Now we're hearing like a multi-billion dollar criminal scheme. It seems that

00:16:39.780 they're all just being ignored right now. Ilhan Omar sort of going by the wayside in guy in disguise. Do you

00:16:50.100 think we actually get an actual investigation now?

00:16:52.920 Yeah, I do believe that we will. I think that this has been a purposeful distraction to take the

00:17:00.940 limelight, the pressure off of the Somali fraud and the cover up of the Walls administration. I think 0.68

00:17:09.840 once ICE is pulled out and things calm down, they're still cutting off funds. They're still sending in

00:17:17.040 the IRS. They're still sending in auditors. They're still going to be sending in investigators to go

00:17:23.780 through the fake daycares, the fake medical. The Dr. Oz is going to be going after all of the Medicaid

00:17:30.360 fraud. So they're in a lot of trouble. This is why they went to such great lengths. Nobody does this

00:17:37.620 kind of distraction unless they know behind the curtain is a massive amount of fraud that will likely

00:17:44.180 send them to jail. So that's my opinion. This whole thing was conflated and blown out of proportion.

00:17:51.080 They are using they are using the scared people in Minnesota to go out and do their bidding so that

00:17:57.400 they can try to distract the American people from all of the billions of dollars of stolen American

00:18:02.580 money. Yeah, you're absolutely right. Steve, I want to take one more quick break here. When we come back,

00:18:07.500 I want to talk about some politics as we've got an election coming up now, it seems in just a few

00:18:12.680 months. And it's going to be a big election because it's going to determine if President

00:18:17.040 Trump gets impeached again, if his entire cabinet gets impeached or he continues his America First

00:18:23.320 agenda. We're taking a quick break here. We're talking with Stephen Gardner, host of the Stephen

00:18:26.900 Gardner Show. You can get Stephen each and every single day on his YouTube channel or Rumble,

00:18:31.260 wherever you guys get your podcasts for the Stephen Gardner Show. We're going to be back in less

00:18:35.720 than 60 seconds. Folks, please stay with us. Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here on

00:18:45.600 The Great America Show. Steve, we've got an election coming up in November, the midterm elections, and

00:18:50.680 it seems every election we say it's the most consequential. Well, I can't speak today. Most

00:18:57.520 consequential election bears the biggest reward. And on the other side, not so much. But if the

00:19:09.780 Republicans lose the House in November or the Senate, they are 150 percent. And this is not me

00:19:17.800 being hyperbolic. They've said it are going to impeach President Trump. They're going to impeach RFK

00:19:23.680 Jr. They're going to impeach Cristino. They're going to impeach the entire cabinet. There doesn't

00:19:29.100 need to be cause for it, as we've seen now in the past. Democrats just do whatever the heck they want

00:19:33.660 to do. They burn the Constitution, don't care about it, doesn't exist. Your thoughts, I mean,

00:19:39.460 as we're now just months from the midterm elections and the Republicans seemingly have their heads stuck

00:19:46.080 in the sand. Yeah, this is consequential. You know, like you, I hate to say, oh, this is the most

00:19:53.020 consequential. But once we got President Trump in, this is our guy and we need him to be in there for

00:19:59.540 two more years. Look at what he's done on the border, even if it takes longer than expected to

00:20:05.200 get the illegals and the criminals out. There aren't 250,000 new ones crossing the border every 1.00

00:20:12.200 month. There's not 100,000 people coming in every single month. Right. So just that is really great.

00:20:17.700 But President Trump today started his his first tour out into Iowa. He's going to be barnstorming

00:20:24.780 all over America, helping get the word out. He's got great candidates. He's got a war chest of money

00:20:31.160 that they're going to be spending to get out the rhinos, to pull in the MAGA and to move forward.

00:20:38.720 But this is consequential. And you're right, John, the Democrats have come out and said,

00:20:44.400 the first thing we're going to do is impeach Donald J. Trump. The second thing we're going to

00:20:49.800 do is restore all of the programs that have now been proven to be slush funds and money laundering

00:20:56.720 to enrich Democrats. We're going to restore all of those so that we can get fat while destroying

00:21:02.640 America. And we're going to increase the budgets. So that's step two. And then step three is to

00:21:08.060 dismantle the entire Trump administration, leaving J.D. Vance with very little to work with. Who knows?

00:21:14.380 They may even go after J.D. Vance. But this is consequential. It's big. But I am optimistic.

00:21:19.900 I think President Trump is going to rally the MAGA base. He's going to show these GOP how to get out

00:21:26.600 there, get things done. But they're going to have to do it. Otherwise, it's their election to lose.

00:21:32.440 Yeah. Well, there's there's no doubt about it. And you've got so many of these bums, 0.99

00:21:37.460 Steve. And you mentioned rhinos. Senator Bill, what's his name? Is it Cassidy down in Louisiana?

00:21:43.500 Yeah. He's out here saying, oh, we need to investigate ISIS. This is exactly what the

00:21:48.940 Democrats want. There's literally no infighting inside the Democrat Party. Any of their problems,

00:21:54.060 they literally keep it behind the scenes. They literally switched out a presidential candidate

00:21:57.980 in one day, Stephen, who has never gotten votes to become the nominee of the Democrat Party

00:22:04.460 with zero drama. The drama was dealt with at the end of the day in a few books that were written.

00:22:09.800 But there was literally no drama at the time of it happening. Not a peep from the man who had just

00:22:14.420 had an election stolen from him. And that's Joseph Biden. Yet we can't get these idiot rhinos to get 0.99

00:22:21.180 on the same page to realize what's right from wrong. It's so simple. If you don't agree with America 1.00

00:22:26.860 first, if you don't agree with securing our borders, if you don't agree with deporting every single 0.98

00:22:30.960 illegal in this country, you're not America first. And you need to go become a Democrat.

00:22:35.740 It's so simple. You can be a Democrat and still have your Republican ideals, I guess,

00:22:43.060 and vote with them when you want to. But don't go lying to your constituents, telling them that

00:22:47.300 you're gung ho Republican when you know damn well you're a liar. 1.00

00:22:51.600 Yeah. Over 70 percent of Americans want illegal criminals out of the country. And over 65 percent, 1.00

00:22:58.860 almost two thirds of everybody in America wants all of the illegals gone.

00:23:03.920 So this is a big thing. As Roger Stone said on my show yesterday, President Trump has set the GOP up

00:23:11.140 to win. He's given them really great action points that they can go out and brag about.

00:23:17.920 So it's not like we're behind the curveball on good action, but they've got to get out there and start

00:23:24.000 letting the American people know this is what we did for you. And I think President Trump,

00:23:29.480 he's not going to sit in the back. He's not the general leading from behind the lines. He's George

00:23:35.240 Washington on his horse. He's out front. He's going to direct the cavalry and everyone behind him

00:23:40.820 forward, man. Let's go. And he's going to show them what to do. I'm really optimistic and excited

00:23:46.720 about it. I agree with you, Stephen. But at the same time, I disagree a tiny bit. How can and what can

00:23:52.660 any of these Republican congressmen go out and tell their constituents they've done with the people

00:23:56.620 done for their people? I mean, they can say, well, Donald Trump has done this for you. Well,

00:24:01.900 Donald Trump has done that for you. Yeah, absolutely. But what can any single one of them

00:24:06.480 say? Listen, I brought meaningful legislation forward and this is what I did for you.

00:24:10.780 I can't let me know if you disagree or if you can think of any single one of them

00:24:14.600 who has done anything meaningful that has changed the lives of the American people

00:24:20.740 without Donald Trump. Yeah, I agree. He is the one that is holding the football. He's the

00:24:26.640 quarterback of this team. But they can they can go out and say, listen, I voted 90 percent of the

00:24:31.840 time or 100 percent of the time. This is what we did on the border. This is what we've been doing.

00:24:36.160 So I do think that they have a lot of things. That's nice. And I agree with you. That's great.

00:24:42.040 But you and I, at the end of the day, we have jobs. OK, and if we don't produce our jobs,

00:24:47.280 we don't get paid. We don't make a living. People don't tune into our shows. I think that's

00:24:52.120 a fair assessment, right? I can't say, well, I came out here and I told you what Donald Trump did

00:24:55.960 and this is it. Yes, Donald Trump is seemingly a one man show. But at the same time, there's 435

00:25:03.040 of these people in the House or 400. It changes now with people leaving and whatnot. But and 100 in the

00:25:10.020 Senate, what can single singly one of them say? I brought this bill to the floor. I passed this bill

00:25:16.540 through Congress and President Trump has signed it. And off the top of my head, Stephen,

00:25:20.700 I can't think of one. And I'm not being a black pillar. I'm being a realist. And I say these

00:25:25.940 things because I want to help the Republican Party. I want to help these people from stop

00:25:30.520 stepping on their shoelaces and tripping themselves when they're not even wearing shoes

00:25:35.040 with shoelaces. Stephen, that's the way I look at it. I don't say this to be a black pillar. I don't

00:25:40.600 say this to be negative because I'm not a negative person. But it drives me nuts knowing

00:25:45.780 that Donald Trump has come back and won for a third time, risked his life, literally risked his

00:25:52.560 life, his family's life, billions of dollars on the line to come back for people who don't even

00:25:58.420 care about this country. That's what drives me absolutely nuts, Stephen. And that's why I get

00:26:04.180 so worked up and so heated over this. Yeah, well, I say on my show all the time, I'm a libertarian

00:26:10.100 that happens to vote with the Republican Party so that I can win. But, you know, they did pass the

00:26:15.120 big, beautiful bill. I agree. They have not passed enough. Here's what here's what will be one of the

00:26:19.760 big tests. Can they pass the Save Act between now and then if they do that? I think that's a really

00:26:26.100 big deal because people wanted the border closed and they want to feel confident in their elections.

00:26:31.380 And then they can brag about everything else that Trump did. Most people understand that Trump is

00:26:36.480 the leader of the party. And they're, you know, in some places, they're just cosplaying a good GOP,

00:26:43.060 you know, candidate. But at the end of the day, I think most people that are MAGA, they're they're

00:26:49.900 MAGA because of Trump. They're not MAGA because of their own state representative.

00:26:54.440 Yeah, I know, Stephen. And this is me. And I know you're exactly you and I get along so well because we

00:26:59.520 think very similarly and we don't like lazy people. I don't know if I ever went to Congress or if I went to

00:27:05.400 the Senate or whatever House or Senate or I know that I'd be there every single day working,

00:27:11.360 burning down whatever dumpster fire I've got to burn to get things done for the American people.

00:27:16.840 And I just feel like we've got a bunch of people there with the exception of a few who just don't

00:27:21.180 care. They just go to collect their hundred seventy five thousand dollars a year, go home and,

00:27:25.520 you know, do a little stock trading. And I mean, that suffices for them. And it just it pains me to

00:27:31.360 know that this is what goes on there, because I like to see results. If I don't see results,

00:27:36.040 I keep fighting and I keep pushing and I keep pushing until I get results. And I just feel these

00:27:42.520 people don't share the same sentiment. I agree with you. I would love to see many of them doing

00:27:49.600 much, much more. I don't like the division that's out there. But again, I'm remaining optimistic because

00:27:55.260 President Trump is not going to be sitting in the Oval Office hoping that they win. He's going to do

00:28:00.960 everything. So he's going to leave it all on the field. And if we end up losing, then that's on us.

00:28:06.720 It's unfortunate, but that's the truth. No, you're right. And you mentioned the Save Act,

00:28:10.580 which President Trump touted today in his rallies. And it mentioned he's going to, as he does,

00:28:16.080 leave it all out on the field. This is a campaign year for President Trump, which most presidents

00:28:20.700 don't do this. Most presidents spend their time pushing through legislation. No, this man

00:28:26.280 has to spend his time on the road, pulling through shit bombs who can't carry their own weight. 0.99

00:28:32.020 Part of me is happy that I don't even know how there's not really a right way to say this. And 0.99

00:28:38.540 it's going to come out wrong me saying this. I'm not happy to see President Trump go at this time.

00:28:43.740 I wish we could have him forever. But the silver lining in President Trump being termed out after

00:28:49.060 this is that these people are going to finally have to carry their own weight at the end of the day.

00:28:54.260 Like, President Trump's name is not going to be at the top of the ballot to carry them over the

00:28:57.660 finish line. And that's what annoys the hell out of me is that he's constantly got to time and time

00:29:01.940 again, Donald Trump's at the top of the ticket. We'll vote Republican on the way down. No,

00:29:05.860 after this, after these elections and started 2020, 28, they're going to have to carry their own

00:29:11.480 weight and they're going to have to fend for their own records. And that's what President Trump

00:29:16.100 has done for these people since 2016. His name has been at the top of the ballot in 1620 and 2024

00:29:22.000 and everything in between. So they're going to have to fend for themselves. But he seemingly,

00:29:28.400 man, he's a he's a he's a company man. President Trump is a company man for the Republican Party,

00:29:33.140 and he is going to carry these people over the finish line no matter what he's got to do. And

00:29:37.840 it just it probably it just kills me, Stephen. It just kills me. We probably lost half the audience

00:29:44.580 by now because they think I'm blackpilling. But it just it really just irks me. And I sound like a

00:29:50.260 broken record because I try to make a difference. And I know you try to make a difference. And you

00:29:54.320 have a massive audience. And I do, too. And it just doesn't get through these people's heads,

00:29:59.900 Stephen. The Save Act you mentioned can't even unite on universal voter ID to ensure that Americans

00:30:07.360 and Americans only are voting in our elections. We still have no investigation into the 2020 election

00:30:13.060 and how it was stolen. I mean, do I need to keep going now? We'll lose the audience. But here's the

00:30:21.200 thing. Everything that you're saying, John, the majority of people that watch you and I, they have the

00:30:26.320 same frustration. So all we can do is continue to put out the truth, encourage them to call and put

00:30:32.800 pressure. These people will cave to pressure if they if they understand. Wait a minute. You don't

00:30:38.700 get my vote unless you go forward with the ideas that I like. And most of them aren't putting forward

00:30:44.980 good ideas. They're just following in President Trump's footprints. So give us what we want, which

00:30:51.120 was what Trump is promising us. And that's how you will win. So become a team player. Quit trying to be

00:30:57.140 an island under yourself when you become an island like Thomas Massey or Marjorie Taylor Greene.

00:31:02.900 The boat keeps going. People wave and we will get new people into your spot.

00:31:07.720 He mentioned Marjorie Taylor Greene. I forgot she was even still a member, still a person who was in

00:31:13.340 Congress. That's I don't think she is, didn't she? Collecting her paycheck and moving back to 1.00

00:31:18.060 Georgia. Yeah, I'm saying I forgot about her presence. Even she caused her little stir over

00:31:23.100 whatever. And, you know, she did her little TV hits. And guess what? The mainstream media,

00:31:27.500 they all forgot about her. They don't care that she's in a lot. Stephen Gardner, host of the Stephen

00:31:32.120 Gardner Show. It's always a delight to be with you. It's always a delight to have you with us,

00:31:35.460 my friend. I truly appreciate our friendship. The audience loves you. You've sent so many people

00:31:40.440 over here to join me who are now loyal viewers of The Great America Show. So I'm forever thankful

00:31:45.700 to you for that. And I literally I can't thank you enough. And that's why I'm doing it here in

00:31:50.240 public. Stephen has helped me with a great deal of stuff, including getting my YouTube going and

00:31:54.900 kicking me in the rear end, telling me to stay on top of it. So in a business where there's not many

00:31:59.880 friends to be made, Stephen has become a great friend of mine. And like I said, Stephen, I truly

00:32:04.820 genuinely mean it. You're a great friend and I appreciate your friendship and you're a great

00:32:09.920 American. Well, thank you very much. And just final, final word. President Trump is out there

00:32:17.180 seven days a week fighting for us. So don't give up. He's not giving up on you. I am again,

00:32:24.160 I'm optimistic, but I also understand this is an uphill battle. And I think he's going to have

00:32:28.840 to carry a lot of bodies across the finish line to get it done. Amen to that, brother. Stephen
