Hello everybody, I'm John Fossett with this Great America Show midday update for Tuesday, April 29th.
00:00:05.060
Happy Tuesday, folks. President Trump's 100-day mark.
00:00:09.220
President Trump holding a rally later this evening, 6 p.m. Eastern Time,
00:00:13.300
in the great state of Michigan, where he'll outline what he's got done in his first 100 days in office.
00:00:19.260
Take a listen to Speaker Mike Johnson earlier today,
00:00:22.480
laying out what he thinks of President Trump's first 100 days.
00:00:26.460
He is the most consequential American leader of the 21st century, and that's an understatement.
00:00:33.220
President Trump has, here's a list, removed men from women's sports,
00:00:36.260
ended DEI in the federal government and the U.S. military,
00:00:39.120
expanded oil and gas extraction to lower prices,
00:00:44.640
secured trillions of dollars in new investments in American manufacturing,
00:00:48.600
deported criminal illegal aliens, stood up for religious liberty,
00:00:54.040
combated virulent anti-Semitism on college campuses.
00:01:04.100
Turns out Mike Johnson and I agree on more than I could have ever imagined.
00:01:07.960
Over on the Senate side, in a stunning rebuke to President Trump's bold new tariff plan,
00:01:13.140
aimed at rebalancing Americans' broken trade system
00:01:18.140
Senator Rand Paul has announced he has the votes in the Senate
00:01:21.540
to pass a resolution that would effectively kill the America First tariff plan.
00:01:26.860
Now, Senator Paul's surprising alliance with some of the Senate's most radical Democrats
00:01:32.980
who view it as another betrayal of President Trump's America First agenda.
00:01:37.140
Earlier this month, Paul joined the ranks of Marxist-Stems,
00:01:41.420
Senate Finance Committee Chair Ranking Member Ron Wyden,
00:01:50.120
that would terminate the emergency declaration used by President Trump
00:01:57.480
The so-called bipartisan coalition claims they are fighting for constitutional principles
00:02:06.220
But their actions will only embolden globalist trade regimes,
00:02:10.720
and undermine President Trump's ability to defend U.S. interests on the world stage.
00:02:15.840
Senator Rand Paul, I understand, believes one way about tariffs,
00:02:20.280
but for him to be joining ranks with the Marxist-Stems,
00:02:23.420
it tells you all you need to know about Senator Rand Paul.
00:02:26.340
This week, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed the tools
00:02:33.220
technical deepfakes on the Web and Networks Act,
00:02:41.000
The bill was introduced by Senator Ted Cruz of Texas
00:02:43.300
in the Senate and brought in by the House by Representative Maria Salazar.
00:02:47.720
First Lady Melania Trump, who doesn't weigh in on public policy very often,
00:02:53.880
In March, she hosted a roundtable on deepfakes and revenge porn
00:02:57.520
to advocate for the passage of the Take It Down Act.
00:03:01.320
There was only two people who voted against it.
00:03:03.700
Two Republicans, Rep. Thomas Massey of Kentucky and Eric Burleson of Missouri,
00:03:11.620
The bill cracks down on posting of explicit images,
00:03:16.160
generated of people by artificial intelligence without consent.
00:03:19.380
As I said, two Republicans, the only two people voting against the bill,
00:03:24.280
Congressman Thomas Massey and Congressman Eric Burleson of Missouri,
00:03:31.700
And if you folks aren't doing anything tomorrow,
00:03:36.660
failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris is doing a speaking engagement.
00:03:43.820
former frontrunner for President of the United States,
00:03:48.000
for an upcoming speech hosted by Emerge America,
00:03:51.920
a Marxist Dem organization that trains women to hold public office.
00:03:58.620
which will take place on Wednesday in San Francisco,
00:04:02.900
$25 for a digital ticket per virtual live stream,
00:04:07.340
and up to $50,000 for sponsorships to attend in person.
00:04:12.060
I wouldn't pay 25 cents to go see Kamala Harris,
00:04:15.280
and something tells me most of you folks out there
00:04:19.980
even if it is 25 cents, towards a Kamala Harris event.
00:04:27.620

has found that a significant portion of Tesla owners
00:05:05.920
are reshaping the EV ownership experience in America,
00:05:12.640
U.S. private sector employers kept their demand for work
00:05:17.300
while layoffs fell broadly and worker confidence straightened,
00:05:29.880
regardless of what the Marxist media tells you.
