00:00:26.200
I'm going to kick off tonight's show with that interview. There's so much news to get
00:00:30.700

00:00:36.320
father, Scott Besant launching his latest investigations, which are absolutely massive, and President
00:00:44.440
Trump doubling down on his attacks against Venezuela as Colombia now thinks they're going to get
00:00:50.880
involved. President Trump with some really, really wise words for those folks. So we're

00:01:23.760
without further ado, we've got this interview, like I said, that I did with Kyle Rittenhouse just the
00:01:29.400
other day. Shout out to Real America's Voice that had me do it in front of a massive crowd at AmFest
00:01:37.900
in Phoenix, Arizona. Terrific people. Rob Sig, Parker Sig, the owners of Real America's Voice.
00:01:44.480
Great, great, great Patriots. So let's get to this interview. And after this, we're going to get to
00:01:50.800
all of the news of the day. I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed doing it.
00:02:02.040
Thanks, everybody, for being with us. We're here with Kyle Rittenhouse. Kyle, 22 years old.
00:02:08.920
You've been through everything. Unimaginable circumstances, unimaginable situation. You're
00:02:15.020
only 22 years old. Let's talk a little bit about what you went through, the experience,
00:02:21.760
Yeah, absolutely. So five years ago on August 25th, 2020, I was attacked violently by Antifa,
00:02:28.120
and they tried to kill me. I was put on trial by the entire political machine, and I got to see
00:02:33.580
the inside of the prosecution on how they will try to take somebody's life away from them after they
00:02:38.840
were brutally attacked on the street, and I was forced to defend myself. I had the full force of
00:02:44.360
the government coming after me, and I won. I beat the government. After that, I went on to promote
00:02:50.660
the Second Amendment, and I took a little bit of a hiatus, and now we're here.
00:02:55.040
So you went through everything, the Black Lives Matter movement. We saw, I mean, if any of these
00:03:01.440
people prosecuted for any of the crimes they committed, burning down police stations, looting,
00:03:07.860
lighting everything on fire that they got in their way.
00:03:12.120
Right. Yet you, they tried to make an example out of you, a kid, who was sitting there simply
00:03:18.480
protecting a friend's business. What do you say to the people who, like you, have been persecuted,
00:03:26.120
not prosecuted, persecuted, for doing nothing wrong, as you watch BLM walk the streets, still
00:03:33.280
continue to walk the streets, Antifa walk the streets, and there is no repercussions for
00:03:41.140
I mean, you see no accountability with the left. Five years ago in 2020, Antifa was burning
00:03:46.780
our country down. In 2021, we saw January 6th on how the FBI attacked Americans and went
00:03:54.100
after Americans for peacefully protesting and going into our house, the Capitol, our house.
00:03:59.780
Yet nobody came after the people in the riots. We saw no persecutions. We saw no prosecutions
00:04:06.100
of anybody that was burning our American cities down, and that's the left for you, the violent,
00:04:12.220
Tell me what it does to a kid your age when you're going through that. I mean, you're a kid.
00:04:17.320
Your brain's not fully developed. You're not fully developed. You're growing still.
00:04:21.060
And you are put through the ranks of the law like an adult. Tell us a little bit about what it did to
00:04:28.780
you mentally as a human being who's still developing in such a difficult world to grow up in.
00:04:35.160
Well, I lost complete faith in our judicial system. I believe in our jury system. I do not believe
00:04:41.460
in our judicial system. I see what's happening today. I see how violent the left is now compared
00:04:48.500
to five years ago, and it's only gotten worse. And I'm just hoping to see accountability now with
00:04:53.660
the new DOJ and FBI, but I'm not hopeful because they are the ABC agencies.
00:04:59.760
Did you ever take or try to take civil action towards these folks who came after you,
00:05:04.520
towards the organizations who tried to destroy you beyond repair?
00:05:11.460
It was something we looked into, but we weren't able to pursue it because the court said I was a
00:05:17.660
public figure at the time just for being filmed of being attacked. They made me a limited purpose
00:05:22.540
public figure on August 25th, 2020. So I had no way of going after the media. And that's another
00:05:28.580
weapon that the left used against me with these sorrow funded judges and the sorrow funded media that
00:05:34.060
tried to take my life away from me, tried to destroy me in the court of public opinion and the court of
00:05:39.120
law. But hey, I won, and I came out in first place.
00:05:48.560
That is truth, justice, and the American way, as the great Lou Dobbs used to say.
00:05:53.460
Can you recall people who stayed in your corner, aside from your family, of course, but public people
00:06:00.480
who stayed in your corner? Because we see now, Kyle, something happens, controversy, and everyone runs.
00:06:07.600
They don't want to be part of it. Kyle Rittenhouse is going to jail. He's a bad guy.
00:06:14.140
Are there any people that you can name publicly who stood by your side during that most difficult
00:06:19.820
time of your life? And it will be the most difficult time you probably ever face.
00:06:23.680
Absolutely. If it wasn't for Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk, Jack Posobiec, I'd probably be sitting
00:06:29.020
in prison right now. Jack Posobiec was right by my side through my entire trial, releasing all of the facts
00:06:34.860
and evidence because the fake news media refused to put out the videos of me being violently attacked,
00:06:40.620
refused to talk about me being ambushed, refused to talk about how the violent left Antifa criminals
00:06:49.980
So you're now 22 years old, as I said, which when I was 22 years old, I can't even tell you what I was
00:06:56.500
doing. I probably wasn't doing anything honorable or right. I was just finishing college.
00:07:00.280
You're 22 years old. You went through everything and back. What are you up to now? You just got
00:07:04.600
married on June 7th. Round of applause. What are you up to now?
00:07:11.160
Yeah. So early in January, I took a little bit of a hiatus. I was done with the fight. I didn't
00:07:16.660
want to be involved in politics anymore. I was exhausted. I was drained. I was tired of seeing
00:07:21.940
all the lies put out against me. So I moved to Florida. I took a break. I met my beautiful
00:07:27.680
wife, the love of my life. And now on September 10th, when Charlie Kirk was murdered on live
00:07:34.300
TV, I made the decision to get back in the fight and pick up the mic for Charlie Kirk because
00:07:41.820
You're absolutely right. And a big round of applause for Charlie Kirk and everything he's
00:07:46.100
done. This beautiful organization that he's formed. You know, you really don't realize what
00:07:52.120
you have until it's gone, Kyle. And we watched all of that happen to Kyle, as you said, live
00:07:57.720
right in front of our eyes. And you still have people on the left try to justify because
00:08:02.880
of his political beliefs. Last week, we saw this poor woman working in Target, an elderly
00:08:07.200
lady get chastised for wearing a Charlie Kirk shirt. What are we to do with this intolerant
00:08:14.100
left where they've made normalized killing people? They've normalized doxing people. They've normalized
00:08:21.060
trying to ruin people's lives. They've normalized trying to assassinate a president two times.
00:08:26.560
What are we to do as Americans? I mean, what more do we have to do?
00:08:32.120
We have seen how violent the left gets. It will not stop until we fight, fight, fight.
00:08:40.720
We saw what happened to President Trump once and then a second attempt on him again.
00:08:45.780
And the left is just silent. Yet when it happens to somebody else on their side or there's a threat
00:08:52.260
made, it's the violent left. It's the left who took over the Capitol on January 6th. It's the left
00:08:57.880
that broke the windows on January 6th. And the problem is, Kyle, it's the left and the right.
00:09:03.240
The right doesn't know how to fight. They lack the intestinal fortitude in some cases. Now,
00:09:09.340
there are some stalwarts who will battle to the grave. But how do we fire up these weak-kneed
00:09:15.420
Republicans who, quite frankly, can't speak up for the truth, can't speak up for what's right?
00:09:22.020
Well, first, what we need to do is stop voting for rhinos. We need to get good people elected
00:09:29.300
like J.D. Vance in 2028. We need to focus on our city councils, our school boards, our congressmen,
00:09:36.160
our state representatives. We need to look at their record. We don't need to bow the knee.
00:09:40.480
We don't need to compromise. If they do something wrong, we need to hold them accountable and they
00:09:45.460
need to be removed from office if they do not follow what their constituents elected them to do
00:09:50.420
because they work for us and not the other way around. You're absolutely right. Now that you're
00:09:55.200
off the sidelines, what's your plans? Do you want to go out and campaign for folks? What's your plans
00:10:00.040
now for the future as you're back in it? Well, January 5th, I have a huge announcement coming.
00:10:06.160
And that's when I'm going to tell you what I'm going to, what I've been up to the past couple
00:10:09.500
months, what I've been building and what we're going to be doing in the future. So stay tuned
00:10:13.420
for January 5th. Folks, Kyle Rittenhouse, a great American, a man who was put through the ringer,
00:10:18.580
who didn't deserve it. And we're glad to see you prospering. We're glad to see that you got the
00:10:23.360
justice that was so just. You get the last word here, Kyle. John, thank you so much for having me on.
00:10:28.820
Thank you everybody for standing around and watching me talk and have an amazing America
00:10:33.600
Fest. And one more thanks to the great Charlie Kirk who made this all possible and the owner
00:10:41.380
of Rav, Rob Sig, a terrific American. It's people like him that allow us independent journalists
00:10:47.620
to get the word out. It's people like him that make America great. It's people like him that
00:10:52.200
allow us to get out truth, justice, and the American way. Thank you, everybody. Thank you,
00:10:56.400
Kyle. Thank you. And there you have it, folks. Truly a good kid. Like I said, the book was
00:11:06.940
thrown at him. His life was destroyed. We'll never be the same again. I got to meet his wonderful
00:11:12.620
fiance and spend some time with them after the interview and later on in the night and his
00:11:19.120
beautiful service dog, Golden Retriever. I am a little partial to Golden Retrievers, but a
00:11:26.900
whose life was truly ruined because the intolerant left wanted to make an example out of him.
00:11:34.760
And he wasn't having it. They lost. And the Democrats don't like losing. We're going to
00:11:39.980
take a quick break here, folks, on the Great America Show. So much more to get to on the other
00:11:43.200
side of this quick break. If you're joining us on Rumble YouTube, Twitter, please be sure to hit that

00:11:56.900
Thanks, everybody, for staying with us here on the Great America Show. We truly appreciate it.
00:12:01.460
In this busy holiday season, we know there's a lot going on, and it's not a top priority for you to
00:12:10.020
be tuning into the Great America Show. So those of you who have stayed with us through this holiday
00:12:14.060
vacation, this little holiday break, the greatest time of the year. Christmas is just a great time.
00:12:21.320
We truly appreciate it. So Hunter Biden is back in the media, and he's got some things to say,
00:12:28.620
and it's not against who you think it's against. You'd think he hates Donald Trump's guts.
00:12:34.940
But Hunter delivering a blistering critique of illegal immigration during his marathon unfiltered
00:12:42.760
sit-down with former Navy SEAL Sean Ryan on his very big podcast, The Sean Ryan Show.
00:12:50.020
It emerged with something no one in the Democrat establishment, of course, expected.
00:12:54.260
They weren't fans of Joe Biden, though, or Hunter Biden or any, and we're not fans of him either.
00:12:59.540
But when a Democrat speaks common sense, I think it's incumbent upon us for to cover it, at least.
00:13:06.040
The interview landed like a political grenade inside the Democratic circles because Hunter Biden
00:13:10.760
openly contradicted the core immigration posture that his father's administration was responsible for.
00:13:19.580
Now, while Biden's White House spent four years insisting the border was secure,
00:13:25.480
Hunter acknowledged what millions of Americans have lived with.
00:13:31.880
Immigration drains public resources, displaces priorities away from veterans and working-class citizens like you and I.
00:13:40.460
Now, during Joe Biden's presidency, you all know illegal immigration surged
00:13:47.400
According to U.S. CBP numbers, during Joe Biden's administration,
00:13:55.200
over 8 to 10 million total encounters nationwide
00:14:04.080
Approximately 9 million encounters at the southern border alone.
00:14:09.580
The annual average is nearly 2 million encounters from the years of 21 to 23.
00:14:17.280
And a significant share of encounters involved repeat crossers undermining claims of one-time migration events.
00:14:25.580
Meanwhile, independent estimates of illegal alien population skyrocketed,
00:14:33.360
Now, Pew Research says it's 14 to 15 million from 2023 to 2024 alone.
00:14:42.820
And that figure exceeds the population of 36 to 41 states right here in America.
00:14:49.180
Now, within weeks of taking off the office, the administration dismantled Trump-era enforcement measures,
00:14:57.980
including the Remain in Mexico policy that they got rid of,
00:15:04.300
committing hundreds of thousands from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
00:15:10.960
And weakening the interior enforcement and asylum integrity,
00:15:15.300
which has all went out the drain under the Biden administration.
00:15:21.040
And thank God that President Trump is back in power,
00:15:27.500
But when you think about those numbers and those figures, folks,
00:15:30.340
you think about why they wanted them in America and why they still want them in America.
00:15:34.060
When you have figures like 20 and 30 million illegals, rather, they vote.
00:15:44.060
Regardless of what the Democrats tell you, whether they can't vote,
00:15:47.940
most blue states, these illegals can get driver's licenses.
00:15:52.080
They don't have to speak English, don't have to be citizens,
00:15:58.040
So, of course, the Democrats have done and will continue to do all they can
00:16:01.560
to bring them and import them into this country.
00:16:10.740
And it wasn't just about the southern border, folks.
00:16:16.240
It was just an overall railing against his father,
00:16:24.200
I assume that anybody that's running for president,
00:16:37.900
But we don't want immigrants that are coming here illegally,
00:16:41.680
draining us of resources and being prioritized above people
00:16:48.780
Whatever your position on the things that he did,
00:16:52.120
he did them exceedingly well and accomplished them.
00:16:55.260
And he had mistakes like every other president has had.
00:17:00.040
Some that I may disagree with, but absolutely 100 percent.
00:17:05.140
The way in which they executed the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
00:17:17.320
And I think that, and I can blame it on his generals.
00:17:21.120
I can blame it on the people, the way in which we did it.
00:17:23.240
But my dad always knew this also, is that the buck stops with him.
00:17:30.040
I think leaving Afghanistan was the right thing to do.
00:17:34.040
I cannot f***ing stand the way the Afghan withdrawal happened.
00:17:38.260
I don't even want to talk about it because it's going to get me into a really dark place.
00:17:47.560
And I'm not here to tell you that you shouldn't be angry.
00:17:57.060
As someone said, I saw in the comments real quickly.
00:18:02.620
It's hard to believe that a crackhead sounds more reasonable than his father was.
00:18:14.540
A man whose life has been fulfilled by crack drugs and prostitution.
00:18:21.300
Sounds more reasonable than most of the Marxist damn party.
00:18:27.700
Folks, I want to take one more quick break here.
00:18:35.920
Southern border President Trump taking on Venezuela,

00:19:05.220
So Treasury Secretary Scott Besson has launched a massive data-driven federal investigation
00:19:10.840
targeting more than 100 money service businesses that are operating at the U.S. southern border.
00:19:20.020
The announcement came as the U.S. Department of Treasury Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
00:19:24.200
called multiple-tiered enforcement operations aimed at these people
00:19:30.160
who were down at the southern border doing businesses with criminal organizations.
00:19:35.460
And those criminal organizations aren't necessarily just the cartels,
00:19:39.280
but the American Red Cross, the Catholic Charities of America,
00:19:43.760
all these people who for the last 10 years have been harboring and importing
00:19:53.600
Take a listen to Treasury Secretary Scott Besson.
00:19:57.720
At President Trump's direction, the Treasury Department is utilizing all tools
00:20:03.500
to stop terrorist cartels, drug smugglers, and human traffickers.
00:20:08.340
In line with that effort, I'm announcing a new data-driven border operation
00:20:13.220
to help root out potential cartel-related money laundering from the U.S. financial system.
00:20:19.680
Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, known as FinCEN,
00:20:24.060
is targeting over 100 money service businesses along the southwest border.
00:20:29.540
Specifically, FinCEN is issuing six notices of investigation,
00:20:41.760
These businesses, which provide financial services outside of a formal bank,
00:20:50.200
including money laundering related to drug smuggling and human trafficking.
00:20:54.580
Thanks to Treasury's push for technology modernization,
00:20:58.880
we are now able to implement data-driven approaches to identify potential bad actors.
00:21:07.940
make no mistake, we can and will take action to keep Americans safe.
00:21:13.040
President Trump has made clear his commitment to securing our border,
00:21:19.300
and eliminating Mexico-based drug cartels to protect Americans.
00:21:23.120
Treasury will continue to use, expand, advance technology,
00:21:29.380
and every resource at its disposal to combat money laundering and make America.
00:21:35.140
Scott Besson, another one of President Trump's picks, is absolutely brilliant.
00:21:51.380
But this isn't exactly what they have to do at the southern border in order to tackle that issue.
00:21:57.400
You've got to hit these networks, these corporations where it hurts.
00:22:02.940
Yes, stopping the migrants at the border is the first step.
00:22:06.860
The second step is keeping them out and holding accountable the people who get them here.
00:22:13.280
These people don't just wake up one day and say, hey, we're going to go run to the southern border today and go to America.
00:22:21.560
It's a process, weeks long, months long, sometimes years long.
00:22:26.220
And our own American institutions coordinate with these drug cartels,
00:22:31.740
because every single person that comes through the southern border passes through some sort of drug cartel.
00:22:39.200
There's not one single person that makes it across the southern border alive that does it on their own.
00:22:48.320
There's certain areas throughout the border that the cartels bring them through.
00:22:55.780
And there's certain areas that are just not habitable to even get through with terrain and mountains and conditions during the day,
00:23:10.300
So the two that I gave you before that I know for a fact with firsthand knowledge of it,
00:23:17.000
who partake in this criminal acts are the Catholic Charities of America,
00:23:21.040
the Catholic Charities of New York, the Red Cross.
00:23:25.220
You can actually go on the Catholic Charities website,
00:23:29.140
and they'll tell you if you're illegal what you have to do and who you have to reach out to.
00:23:41.240
So what Besson and Trump is doing is absolutely brilliant.
00:23:48.260
If you take away their 501c3 charity and their tax deductibility,
00:23:59.220
And if you take that away from them, it will totally cripple them.
00:24:06.540
And if you don't, then they're going to continue to do what they do.
00:24:09.260
They're going to continue to work with the drug cartels.
00:24:11.160
They're going to work with the drug organizations.
00:24:13.160
And they'll continue to transport illegals into America.
00:24:19.300
But we're going to give Besson and Trump the benefit of the doubt,
00:24:22.580
because it seems like they've got their hand right on the pulse and where they need to be.
00:24:29.560
President Trump was asked yesterday about Maduro in Venezuela.
00:24:40.000
And if he wants to act like a tough guy, he's going to find out what a tough guy really is.
00:24:47.380
I mean, we have a massive armada formed, the biggest we've ever had.
00:24:53.200
And by far the biggest we've ever had in South America.
00:25:00.880
If he wants to do something, if he plays tough, it'll be the last time he's ever able to play tough.
00:25:13.880
They sent people from mental institutions and insane asylums into the United States.
00:25:18.940
Just walked right in because Biden had an open border policy.
00:25:23.560
What the Biden administration did to our country can never be forgotten.
00:25:27.600
They took in millions and millions, 25 million people over the course of four years.
00:25:32.800
Many of those people were murderers and drug dealers.
00:25:42.860
More than half of them killed more than one person.
00:26:01.300
Venezuela took advantage of the open borders that Biden created more than any other country.
00:26:10.380
Look, I mean, you have a very weak governor in Colorado.
00:26:13.440
Look what happened in Colorado where they would occupy apartment houses.
00:26:16.940
And he didn't want to do anything about it because he was scared.
00:26:22.480
So, it's not just Venezuela who wants to be tough guys.
00:26:29.900
The president of Colombia, who, if I'm not mistaken, has been caught before with a tranny prostitute.
00:26:38.460
Not sure how big of a tough guy you can be when you get caught doing things like that.
00:26:41.780
But President Trump had some words about him because he accused us of stealing land.
00:26:52.660
We may want Greenland, which we're going to tell you about in a second.
00:26:56.080
President Trump is renewing his push for Greenland.
00:26:58.700
But we certainly don't want Venezuela and all their problems.
00:27:01.360
Take a listen to what he had to say to the president of Colombia.
00:27:03.300
So, in response to the United States taking sanctioned oil from Venezuela,
00:27:07.780
Colombian President Gustavo Petro criticized the United States by saying,
00:27:11.920
well, the Southwest has stolen land and that it should be returned to Latin America.
00:27:15.260
I just wanted to know what your response to that is.
00:27:16.880
Well, he has to watch because, you know, he's got drug factories.
00:27:28.220
And he's got to watch his ass because he makes cocaine
00:27:31.360
and they send it into the United States of America from Colombia.
00:27:49.320
They have at least three major cocaine factors.
00:27:58.920
You guys remember what he was doing with Mexico.
00:28:01.880
Last administration was letting them know, we know exactly where your stuff is.
00:28:16.160
And that's the only thing that's going to stop the drug trade.
00:28:19.460
These boats getting blown up is one of the best things I've ever seen happen.
00:28:30.720
So, like I said, it doesn't seem Trump's interested in taking over Venezuela or Colombia for that matter.
00:28:38.860
We will take the oil on those Venezuelan ships, though.
00:28:41.380
But what he is doing is he's renewing his push for Greenland.
00:28:47.160
And he just appointed governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry, special envoy to Greenland.
00:28:54.740
I'm sure it has nothing to do with the Louisiana Purchase, or maybe it does.
00:29:00.160
Take a listen to President Trump and his renewed push for Greenland for national security reasons.
00:29:32.500
They say that Denmark was there 300 years ago or something with a boat.
00:29:49.720
We have so many sites for minerals and oil and everything.
00:29:52.660
We have more oil than any other country in the world.
00:29:58.040
And if you take a look at Greenland, you look up and down the coast, you have Russian
00:30:09.280
So we're making him, Marco, today a special envoy to Greenland.
00:30:20.200
It doesn't seem like President Trump is going to take no for an answer.
00:30:25.440
You've got the Chinese and you've got the Russians piping up and down around it.
00:30:44.960
Let us know where you're tuned in from in the comments.
00:30:48.940
I'm just talking with Rich Barris, a big data poll.
00:30:58.640
I think we're going to try to get him on the show tomorrow if we do a show for Christmas Eve.
00:31:07.420
We obviously won't have a show on Christmas, but we'll get him back, get him on the show on Friday to talk about some of his latest polling.
00:31:14.040
I spent a long time with him over the weekend talking about polling.
00:31:16.940
He and Mark Mitchell are best friends, and I think together they do a terrific, terrific job.
00:31:22.020
So we're going to get him in the mix of pollsters here on the show.
00:31:26.680
We'll see you back here possibly tomorrow if we don't.
