Hello, everybody. I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show midday update for Tuesday,
00:00:03.940
December 2nd. Happy Tuesday, folks. Well, the gloves are off for President Trump and
00:00:08.300
Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro. President Trump has given Maduro every last chance to
00:00:13.520
leave the country with his family. It's going to be up to Maduro now to see if he takes him
00:00:18.080
up on that offer and how he eventually leaves Venezuela. If it's voluntarily or forcefully,
00:00:25.440
we're going to have to wait and see. But President Trump held his final cabinet meeting of the year
00:00:29.460
this afternoon and did not hold back, as the reporters, as they usually do, have a lot of
00:00:34.500
questions. Trump, flanked by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, defended the Pentagon strikes on
00:00:40.240
narco-terrorist vessels in the Caribbean, being sent from Venezuela. The U.S. military has conducted at
00:00:45.680
least 21 strikes on boats since September. This is what a real war on drugs looks like. Take a listen
00:00:52.080
to President Trump, I mean, not holding back in the slightest when asked about the narco-terrorists
00:00:59.900
We lost last year. I think it was more than that. But, you know, people don't like saying
00:01:04.480
it because they always said 100,000, 115,000 numbers we've been hearing for years. So we
00:01:10.020
lost last year more than 200,000 people, dead people, ruined families beyond the 200,000.
00:01:16.800
And those 200,000, that family will never be the same. But these people have killed over 200,000
00:01:23.320
people, actually killed over 200,000 people last year. And those numbers are down. Those numbers
00:01:30.680
are down. They're way down. And they're down because we're doing these strikes. And we're
00:01:35.100
going to start doing those strikes on land, too. You know, the land is much easier. It's much easier.
00:01:39.720
And we know the routes they take. We know everything about them. We know where they live. We know where
00:01:45.260
the bad ones live. And we're going to start that very soon, too.
00:01:48.540
Mr. President, thank you so much, Mr. President.
00:01:50.420
You know what, while we start that, we're going to grab those things down so low.
00:01:53.540
And then you're going to have families be able to live without the fear of their son or daughter,
00:01:59.520
just having a pill to have a little fun and ending up dying within a period of 60 seconds. Right.
00:02:08.300
No, we're not going to let that happen. We're not going to let it continue to happen. What
00:02:11.420
Biden did to this country by allowing all these people, and I call them animals in many cases. I
00:02:17.300
think they're animals to come into our country and destroy our country and let all those drugs pour
00:02:22.140
in. Let people just walk across the border like it was nothing. You look at them, a lot of them,
00:02:28.380
you know, and they say, oh, let's not discriminate. I'm not talking about color. I'm just talking
00:02:32.540
about you look into the eyes of some of these people. We're smart. And you see a killer. Come
00:02:38.440
on in. Just come on in. 11,888 murderers. Many of them committed more than one murder. He allowed
00:02:46.400
them into our country. Totally unvetted, totally unchecked. But he also allowed drugs to come
00:02:52.080
in at record numbers. And hundreds of thousands of people a year died. And we're taking those son
00:02:58.100
of a bitches out. President Trump not mincing words as usual, saying it how it is. And it's
00:03:04.160
nice to have a president once again back in the Oval Office who says it straight, means what he says
00:03:09.140
and says what he means. You heard the man from his mouth directly. So there's no need for media
00:03:16.360
conflicting reports. Venezuela wasn't the only country President Trump spoke about today.
00:03:21.360
Somalia has been a hot topic amid Governor Tampon Tim Waltz getting scammed out of hundreds of millions
00:03:28.140
of dollars from Somalians. Take a listen to what President Trump had to say. And what's next for
00:03:33.500
Somalia? Which is barely a country. You know, they have no they have no anything. They just run around
00:03:40.640
killing each other. There's no structure. And when I see somebody like Ilhan Omar, who I don't know at
00:03:47.920
all, but I always watch her for years. I've watched her complain about our Constitution, how she's being
00:03:54.040
treated badly. Our Constitution, the United States of America is a bad place. Hates everybody. Hates
00:04:01.260
Jewish people. Hates everybody. And I think she's an incompetent person. She's a real terrible person.
00:04:10.220
But when I watch what is happening in Minnesota, the land of a thousand lakes or however many lakes
00:04:18.220
they have, they got a lot of lakes. But this beautiful place. And I see these people ripping it off.
00:04:24.540
And now I'm understanding. And you're going to look at that. That's good. I hear they ripped off
00:04:30.020
Somalians. Ripped off that state for billions of dollars. Billions. Every year. Billions of dollars.
00:04:41.480
And they contribute nothing. The welfare is like 88 percent. They contribute nothing.
00:04:48.100
I don't want them in our country. I'll be honest with you. Somebody said, oh, that's not politically
00:04:53.620
correct. I don't care. I don't want them in our country. Their country is no good for a reason.
00:04:59.100
Their country stinks. And we don't want them in our country. I can say that about other countries, too.
00:05:05.240
I can say it about other countries, too. We don't want them to help. We got to we have to rebuild our
00:05:10.460
country. You know, our country's at a tipping point. We could go bad. We're at a tipping point.
00:05:16.500
President Trump, as I said, does not mince words. And it's great to have a president
00:05:20.420
that says what he means and means what he says. Like I said, we don't have to worry about the media
00:05:25.660
spinning the narrative because he sits there with a straight face and tells you how it is.
