Hello, everybody. I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show midday update for Tuesday,
00:00:04.000
January 20th. Happy Tuesday, folks. President Trump today marking his first hundred days in
00:00:09.040
office, taken to the podium in the briefing room at the White House, been nearly two hours.
00:00:15.580
Think about that, folks. Two hours talking with the press, laying out his accomplishments,
00:00:20.900
because there are many accomplishments that he's gotten through in his first 100 days,
00:00:25.200
laid him out. Now, I just think back what we dealt with the last four years, I guess,
00:00:30.960
five years now, looking back at the Biden administration and how many times Joe Biden
00:00:36.620
addressed the media and how many accomplishments he had now with President Trump's just one year in
00:00:42.000
office. I mean, absolutely obliterating the record of just about any president in history, even his
00:00:47.460
first term around 2016. President Trump didn't mince any words, didn't take any breaks. And
00:00:55.200
was sure, was sure to address the Somali fraud in Minnesota. Take a listen.
00:01:02.340
Now, Minnesota, the crime is incredible. The financial crimes are incredible.
00:01:06.680
And the problem is because of the agitators and insurrectionists, whatever you want,
00:01:12.560
troublemakers. But they're paid agitators and insurrectionists. Nobody talks about the fact
00:01:19.080
that $19 billion at a minimum is missing in Minnesota, given to a large degree by Somalians.
00:01:28.840
They've taken it. Somalians. Can you imagine? And they don't do it. A lot of very low IQ people,
00:01:37.300
they don't do it. Other people work it out. And they get them money. And they go out and buy
00:01:42.640
Mercedes Benzes. And they come from here. They have no money. They never had money. They never
00:01:48.300
had a life. They never had a government. They never had a country. Because there's basically
00:01:52.100
no country. Somalia is not even a country. They don't have anything that resembles a country.
00:01:58.400
And if it is a country, it's considered just about the worst in the world. They come here and they
00:02:02.440
become rich and they don't have a job. Low IQ individuals. You heard it from the man's mouth
00:02:08.380
himself. Now, while all of this unfolded, the Justice Department announced today that subpoenas
00:02:12.900
to Governor Tim Waltz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and other far-left
00:02:18.580
Minnesota officials have been served. Now, what have they been served for? Well, maybe their role in
00:02:25.900
impeding ICE operations? The DOJ last week launched a criminal investigation into Tim Waltz and
00:02:31.820
Jared Jacob Fry for interfering with these ICE operations. According to multiple media outlets,
00:02:36.840
the investigation centers around public statements made by both Waltz and Frey.
00:02:40.860
Thousands of federal agents have been deployed to Minneapolis to arrest the illegal criminals
00:02:44.860
that are pouring into the city. Now, both Waltz and Frey have lashed out at Trump and the
00:02:51.160
administration for dispatching ICE to Minnesota. Mayor Frey demanded that residents and local police
00:02:56.220
fight ICE agents in the streets. Well, because of that, this afternoon, Frey and Waltz got what they
00:03:03.920
deserved. Six officials in Minnesota subpoenaed. Folks, you mess around and you find out and the
00:03:11.000
Democrats are doing a little bit too much messing around and they're going to get burned, folks.
00:03:16.760
They're going to get burned. Gavin Newsom starting his run for president of the United States for
00:03:21.100
2028. He started off in a very unlikely place and in true Democrat form, I guess it makes sense.
00:03:27.440
Newsom over in Davos, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum. Newsom had a full-on meltdown over
00:03:35.360
President Trump during an impromptu interview with reporters in Davos. The Marxist damn governor
00:03:40.040
blasted European leaders and demanded they stand up to President Trump after a reporter asked him about
00:03:45.520
their reaction to Trump's position on Greenland. Take a listen to, I mean, just how unhinged and jealous
00:03:53.000
Gavin Newsom is of President Trump. Do you have a message for Europeans who are concerned about
00:03:58.400
messages from the White House around Greenland this week? Yeah, it's time to buck up. It's time to get
00:04:05.520
serious and stop being complicit. It's time to stand tall and firm and have a backbone.
00:04:15.040
I've seen this in the United States, the supine Congress playing both sides,
00:04:19.440
you know, say one thing on a text or a tweet and another publicly. It's time to have principles.
00:04:25.800
It's time to stand strong, strong. Does that mean responding with tariffs?
00:04:29.160
I want it to stand united. You make that determination. I don't make that determination.
00:04:33.260
But when you say standing strong, what do you mean? Just, I can't take this complicity.
00:04:37.720
People rolling over. I should have brought a bunch of knee pads for all the world leaders.
00:04:42.840
I mean, handing out crowns and handing out, I mean, this is pathetic. Nobel Prizes, they're being
00:04:48.600
given away. I mean, it's just pathetic. And I hope people understand how pathetic they look
00:04:55.220
on the world stage. I mean, at least from an American perspective. It's embarrassing.
00:05:01.680
The Europeans should decide for themselves what to do. But one thing they can't do is what
00:05:08.060
they've been doing. And they've been playing. This guy's playing folks for fools. And it's embarrassing.
00:05:16.320
Europeans think this is diplomacy and this will ultimately work.
00:05:18.800
Oh, this is diplomacy with Donald Trump? He's a T-Rex. You mate with him or he devours
00:05:26.940
People need to stand. No, Europeans could be if they continue to put down this path and
00:05:30.820
process. They need to stand tall, stand firm, stand united.
00:05:34.940
That, folks, is a sick, demented man who will never be president of the United States.
00:05:39.020
He should call Hillary Clinton and start consoling from now to get ahead of himself.
