Just when they thought they had him, just when the Wile E Coyote Libs thought they finally had Donald Trump, and New York AG Letitia James was bragging about how she was about to take one of Trump s buildings from him to pay off a ridiculous civil judgment, President Trump scores a major legal win.
00:00:00.000Just when they thought they had him, just when the Wile E. Coyote libs thought they finally had roadrunner Donald Trump and New York Attorney General Letitia James was bragging about how she was about to take one of Trump's buildings from him to pay off a ridiculous civil judgment.
00:00:19.280Just when all hope looked lost, President Covfefe scored a major legal win. An appeals court just lowered the impossible $464 million bond that Trump was supposed to come up with to a still insane, but actually doable if you're Donald Trump, $175 million bond.
00:00:44.060The court also ruled that Trump can continue to run his business in New York, and it gave him extra time to come up with that money.
00:00:52.260For what is, by my count, the, I don't know, 5,358th time, I'm approximating here, that Trump has evaded the schemes of the liberals, he took the opportunity to celebrate.
00:01:06.620And that was done by Biden and his thugs also, because they can't win an election because of the borders, because of energy prices, because of inflation, because of Afghanistan, the worst and most embarrassing day in the history of our country.
00:01:22.560He can't win because of Russia, because of Ukraine, because of Ukraine, because of Ukraine being attacked by Russia, and he can't win because of the October 7th attack of Israel, which he should have never allowed to happen, would have never happened if I were president.
00:01:39.660Ukraine would have never been attacked if I was president.
00:01:42.020And you wouldn't have inflation if I was president, we didn't have inflation.
00:01:47.400So all of these things, so what they do is they do election interference, which is court cases, and let's try and tie him up and let's take as much of his money as possible.
00:01:56.880I respect the appellate division for substantially reducing that ridiculous amount of money that was put on by a corrupt judge.
00:02:04.060Election interference, that's the key phrase.
00:02:08.280He took a great opportunity here to just punch Biden, and they knew all the cameras would be on Trump.
00:02:14.620So instead of just talking about the judgment, he just kind of throws it away as an aside.
00:04:16.020Some really horrifying news breaking right now, which is that the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore has collapsed after a cargo ship hit one of the supports.
00:05:40.860Because Truth Social, which is Trump's Twitter alternative, starts trading today.
00:05:46.780If you're looking for the stock price and how the thing is going, it's a little confusing because Truth Social is going public through a SPAC, this special purpose acquisition company, which is a holding company, a shell company that was able to raise money, but it didn't have any underlying company.
00:06:07.080The whole point of the SPAC is to just go and acquire another company.
00:06:50.140We'll wait to see where the price finally settles.
00:06:54.220It's just a rabbit out of a hat for Trump, though.
00:06:56.960He already had the backup plan, which is the judge reduced that civil fraud settlement.
00:07:02.800You've got the four prosecutions where the Democrats are trying to throw Trump in prison.
00:07:07.500But then there was also this civil judgment, which said that a million years ago, Trump didn't fill out Form 57B totally correctly when he was getting a loan.
00:07:16.860And because he may have misvalued his properties, he now owes almost half a billion dollars to the New York attorney general who campaigned for office specifically on destroying Donald Trump.
00:07:32.160So an appeals court judge came in and said, all right, we're substantially reducing this fee that the corrupt AG in New York is trying to charge him.
00:07:40.100But even if that judgment had not come in, which now allows Trump to pay the bond, which then prevents the New York attorney general from seizing one of his properties, such as Trump Tower, such as his building on Wall Street, which you know the New York attorney general wants to do.
00:07:57.120But even if that had not happened, Trump just pulls this rabbit out of the hat, which is he sells his social media company for a substantial amount of money and increases his net worth by three billion bucks.
00:08:09.840How is Joe Biden responding to this news?
00:08:12.740That just when they think they've got Trump, that dastardly Trump got away from us again.
00:08:18.500The way Biden is responding is by trying to come up with a new nickname for him.
00:09:42.880Then his opponents try to slap him with a nickname.
00:09:45.380They try to do the comedy routine with him.
00:09:48.160You remember Marco Rubio did this whole Don Rickles bit, basically, in the 2016 race where he was insinuating that President Trump is not well endowed because his hands are small or something.
00:10:23.020He's going to have the audience more on his side.
00:10:24.780And Trump is the best living comedian in the United States.
00:10:28.140So, and certainly don't try to play his game.
00:10:30.480It's not just me saying this, by the way.
00:10:31.920Obviously, I have a great deal of affection for President Trump.
00:10:34.260There's even an anonymous, wishes to remain anonymous, Democrat strategist told The Hill that this is a terrible strategy.
00:10:41.940Said, mimicking Trump has been done before has never really worked.
00:10:45.280You can't out-Trump Trump because he's the original version.
00:10:48.400I would say they need to be more creative in producing their own original and unique strategy to bring him down a peg that shocks and awes.
00:12:00.040We continue to print more money, driving up the prices of everyday essentials even further.
00:12:04.400You can bury your head in the sand or you can do something about it.
00:12:06.840But consider diversifying at least some of your savings into gold with Birch Gold Group.

00:12:52.880Text Knowles, K-N-W-L-E-S, to 98, 98, 98 now.
00:12:58.140Speaking of attacking Republicans, the former chairman of the RNC, Ronna McDaniel, is out.
00:13:05.400Trump replaced her with people who are more tightly associated with his campaign, even though Ronna was something of an ally to him when he was in the White House.
00:14:52.860They don't want a conservative to come on and articulate the conservative point of view in a way that can't be mocked or dismissed or invade against.
00:15:01.780So there's a different type of conservative who goes on those channels.
00:15:05.920That's the squishy kind, the one who can go on there and say, well, look, I'm a conservative, but I totally hate Donald Trump.
00:15:11.900And I hate all the elected Republicans.
00:15:13.300And I'm totally in favor of abortion and redefining marriage and opening up our borders and on and on and on and on.
00:15:19.660And so they're really just fake Republicans.
00:15:22.560They're the court jesters in the kingdom of liberalism.
00:15:58.080That's what happened to Ronna McDaniel, who took a job at NBC.
00:16:01.260And in her first day of appearances, she gets absolutely grilled.
00:16:05.480I mean, I won't even show you the clip because it's not even in the top three most interesting clips probably that came out of that day, her first time at NBC.
00:16:16.600But she goes on, the host of Meet the Press is very, very rude to Ronna, asks for an apology to the American people.
00:16:23.160And then if that were not enough, Chuck Todd, who used to host Meet the Press, comes on as a guest to continue attacking his new colleague at NBC, Ronna McDaniel.
00:16:32.200Let me deal with the elephant in the room.
00:19:31.280Did a good job of exposing, I think, many of the contradictions.
00:19:34.240And, and look, there's a reason why there's a lot of journalists at NBC News uncomfortable with this because many of our professional dealings with the RNC over the last six years have been met with gaslighting, have been met with character assassination.
00:19:47.020So it is, you know, that's where you begin here.
00:19:51.380Well, there, he's almost being honest there.
00:19:53.380It's really rich to hear an NBC News propagandist accuse others of gaslighting, these people who pushed every ridiculous hoax about Trump and the Republicans of the last eight years, every hoax cooked up by the intelligence agencies or the Hillary Clinton campaign or actual foreign intelligence like the Russians that they accused Trump of colluding with.
00:20:16.660It was actually they who colluded with them of him to, to, to accuse others of gaslighting.
00:20:22.600It's very, very rich, but he, he does get a little bit to, to his real problem with Ron McDaniel, which is, he says, I hate the Republican Party.
00:20:32.000I hate, I've had to, we, we dealt with the RNC and the RNC pushed back on us and the RNC didn't just roll over and the RNC had the audacity occasionally to win.
00:20:41.260And so we, we here, we journalists at NBC, we hate that because we hate the Republican Party because we hate Trump and Republican voters and we, we want them to shut up and you're not only are they not shutting up, but now we're paying them to speak and that we can't have that.
00:20:57.700We cannot have an actual Republican, whatever you think of Rhonda McDaniel, I think she did her best.
00:21:02.720She tried, she wants Republicans to win.
00:21:04.360We can't have an actual Republican trying to win and articulate their views and persuade people on our network.
00:21:15.140This is a journalistic outlet for goodness sakes.
00:21:18.740We can't have Republicans speaking on here.

00:22:49.240Like my episode with Michael Malice, which had several questions removed on certain big tech platforms.
00:23:51.100We call on the white church in Boston to join us in supporting a black reparations movement.
00:24:00.000Standing in solidarity, clergy leaders from across the city of Boston gathered for an interfaith, multiracial meeting at the Resurrection Lutheran Church in Roxbury, Nubian Square.
00:24:09.680They're here to ask the religious community to atone for black Boston suffering and support black reparations.
00:24:16.480And we are coming, as Dr. King said, to get our check.
00:24:21.620Organizers from the Boston People's Reparation Commission say they're also following up on their demand on the city of Boston for a $15 billion initial payout to begin the process towards repair and reconciliation to the city's black community.
00:24:35.660$5 billion as initial payment around cash payouts, $5 billion around strengthening our financial institutions, creating a new black bank, $5 billion in terms of addressing issues of the education achievement gap between blacks and whites.
00:24:56.080In 2022, the Boston City Council and Mayor Michelle Wu offered an official apology for the city's involvement in the transatlantic slave trade.
00:25:04.020Wow. Wow. Wow. Boy, oh boy. I guess they got some accountant in there.
00:25:09.520They said, OK, because of the transatlantic slave trade of 300 years ago, you owe and you carry the interest rate.
00:25:20.300This is some like New York Letitia James kind of math.
00:25:22.900You owe $15 billion and it's got to come out of the taxpayers of Boston for some reason and specifically out of white churches.
00:25:30.900So says Reverend so-and-so, that young guy, I guess he's the new black race hustler.
00:25:38.000I don't know his name, but I saw he reverend something.
00:25:46.780I think it's undignified work, but it's it can definitely be lucrative.
00:25:51.020Al Sharpton's worn a lot of nice suits for many years now just trying to stir the pot on race relations and demand endless money.
00:25:58.900In this case now from from white churches and it's sad to me as a mackerel snapping papist myself, a member of a church that is called the universal church, the Catholic church.
00:26:12.380It's very sad to see these terms like white churches, black churches, because, you know, for the Catholic church, we don't we don't really view things that way.
00:26:22.560I guess with some of the immigrant groups in America, you'd say, oh, it's an Irish parish.
00:26:26.840But the church broadly, you know, encompasses all races.
00:26:31.380You go to mass, you'll see people of all different races and they're all kind of mixed up together.
00:26:37.940The churches had white saints and black saints and Asian saints and all sorts of saints for a very long time.
00:26:43.840But the fact that certain sects can divvy themselves up and say, we're the black church and you're the white church.
00:26:50.480And so the white church has to give us 15 billion dollars that that opens the door to a lot of really terrible actions, politically terrible, spiritually damaging, just just ultimately wrong.
00:27:04.820The reason I bring it up, though, is not because some race hustler guy who calls himself a reverend is, you know, running a racket that's been going on for many decades.
00:27:13.640It's to remind people for even these, you know, the black activists demanding this who call themselves reverend or the white churches who might acquiesce and just give money to black people as part of some kind of shakedown scheme.
00:27:26.760The greatest saints could have been the worst sinners and the worst sinners could could be the greatest saints.
00:27:39.600This is a fact observed by many religious people over the years that.
00:28:09.060And society flourishes and souls are saved and people live in accord with reason and all of that leads to the flourishing of the common good.
00:28:21.900When the church goes wrong, when the church splinters up into a lot of pieces, when the church promotes vice, when the church even promotes one virtue to the exclusion of the other virtues, which is probably an even better definition of heresy.
00:28:35.160When the church falls into the trap of the fashions of the age and the racial ideologies that are so popular today.
00:28:43.100And when the church marries herself to the spirit of the age, which will leave her a widow in the next, you know, not the not the church church, but all these little splinter groups.
00:28:50.980When all of that happens, the churches can be real, real bad, can go really, really bad.
00:28:57.340And they lose their salt loses its saltiness and it's good for nothing.
00:32:53.920For the Catholics, especially recently because you've got the influx of mass migration, there's not a ton of community cohesion.
00:33:01.160There's been a lot of upending of Catholic norms and practices in recent years, particularly in the wake of the Second Vatican Council.
00:33:11.100That community cohesion is kind of collapsing.
00:33:13.660This is a broader point, even just for politics, putting religious questions aside for a second.
00:33:20.480We have this phrase that has crept into our politics because of an offhand comment by Vice President Dan Quayle to a reporter in Japan in the early 90s, you know, which said, diversity is our strength.
00:33:42.500This doesn't mean that we have to kick out people who are of different races or different religions or whatever, but it means that we need to find something that unifies us nationally.
00:34:04.840Even beyond the question of, are you regularly attending church, which is related to national strength, by the way, but even putting that aside, if you don't have social cohesion, strong bonds that begin with the family, which is the bedrock unit of society, and expand outward in priorities of charity from there all the way up to the national level, which is an extension of filial piety, the love that you have for your parents, for your family.
00:34:29.140If you don't have that, the country's going to collapse, and when we then pair that, not only with loosening those bonds of social cohesion, but actually intentionally attacking the family, then you're in trouble.
00:34:44.740The church attendance declining is troubling to me because I care about people's souls, and I think it's just the most important thing in life is obviously to have a relationship with God because God is the source and summit of all being, and you're maker, and love himself, and he sends his only begotten son to die such that whoever believes in him might not perish but have eternal life.
00:35:10.200Obviously, obviously, we're in holy week right now, so I mean that as an intrinsic matter, this headline really bothers me, but also, even if it didn't, even if I never went to church, as a political matter, the trend lines are not great here, and it shows us that other national trends are a real danger.
00:35:32.080Now, you want to talk about community cohesion. Sometimes, communities come together in the face of a political threat to do things that are very good.
00:35:42.740You're seeing this now throughout the United States, most recently in Wyoming.
00:35:47.380If there's one political issue that I think has united all sorts of people, certainly the conservatives, but even a lot of independents, even liberals in recent years, it's the observation that transing the kids is bad.
00:36:04.100It's just bad. Castrating little children, putting them on drugs that will probably reduce the length of their lives, that mess up their bones, that sterilize them, that lead to all sorts of problems, including depression, anxiety, and suicidality.
00:41:23.260It's not the Front National, which I think is called National Rally now.
00:41:26.680That's the one led by Le Pen that's considered far right.
00:41:30.980You know, I think a ridiculous term, but that's what it's called in the press.
00:41:33.660This is just the Republicans, which is more the center right party in France.
00:41:37.240This is a centrist issue, and it's a total winner.
00:41:40.060Speaking of protecting kids, beyond the trans stuff, Florida, under Governor Ron DeSantis, just passed a law banning social media for kids.
00:42:39.200This is great legislation, and it will separate the conservatives from the libertarians.
00:42:44.320It's the libertarians will say that, you know, we just need individual rights.
00:42:51.740We don't need the big government passing any more restrictions.
00:42:54.260Oh, sure, big tech might be against us, but, you know, what's the—if we empower the government to restrict them, then, you know, what's the limit?
00:43:02.880They're going to go and, I don't know, they're going to take your guns and, I don't know, they're going to say the government can do anything.
00:43:07.460No. No, this is a conservative wielding political power in Florida with a targeted piece of legislation to stop kids from using social media, social media which can poison their minds.
00:43:17.480There have been plenty of studies on this.
00:43:22.380Social media use can lead to increased anxiety, depression, suicidality even in kids.
00:43:29.920The left pretends to care about this when it comes to the sexual confusion that they implant in the children often, but when it comes to social media, they don't want to do it.
00:43:37.920They don't want to touch it because social media is a great vessel for indoctrinating kids in all of the crazy theories that the left promotes.
00:43:45.280So the Republican governor comes in, he says, nope, not doing it, kids, sorry.
00:43:51.100I mean, I totally—the thought of giving your kid a smartphone seems to me so crazy.
00:43:55.080My kids are very little right now, maybe I'll cave when the time comes, but I don't think I will because those smartphones are like portals to hell, and you need to be able to have some discipline whatsoever.
00:44:06.380The conservatives will say, yeah, social media, very bad, children not capable of using their reason in its totality, not particularly disciplined.
00:44:33.940Then at one point in the afternoon, it was trading at about $51 a share, but still that was way too high.
00:44:38.560It was obviously going to come down, right?
00:44:39.700No, the new company, which is trading as DJT, Donald Trump's initials for the Trump media group, it just opened up at about $78 a share.
00:44:51.780So, as the libs are doing their best to bankrupt Trump, broke Don, Biden says two days ago, Trump is now richer maybe than he's ever been in his whole life.
00:45:12.680This guy's been a billionaire playboy for many decades now, and just when they think they steal all his money because he had the audacity to be a Republican president, he's now richer potentially than ever before.
00:45:29.180I do have to get to a really, really sad story because it's also a lot of breaking news, I guess, today, and really, really disturbing news, which is that the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore has tumbled down.
00:45:42.500The water is, I think, about 47 degrees last that it was checked, and it's unclear, according to the rescue operations, how many people are in the water, how many people have been rescued, how many people died.
00:45:55.240And then beyond the human tragedy, which is so awful, you've got this major piece of the Baltimore skyline and infrastructure just collapsing.
