00:08:57.000 And with that, now let's get into all the real news, okay?

00:09:03.000 I want to start with a little different thought tonight, okay?

00:09:07.000 Because sometimes small stories tell you everything you need to know about a much bigger story.

00:09:13.000 The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was leaking something like 45,000 gallons of water a day, okay?

00:09:20.000 That's a lot.

00:09:21.000 It's a lot of water.

00:09:23.000 Where are the environmentalists on this one?

00:09:25.000 45,000 gallons.

00:09:26.000 I mean, think about that.

00:09:28.000 Every day for years.

00:09:29.000 And of course, in Washington, That somehow becomes normal.

00:09:34.000 Everyone knows it, everyone walks past it, everyone forms a committee, but nothing actually ever gets done.

00:09:41.000 Everyone explains why fixing a basic problem is actually very complicated.

00:09:46.000 But then my father's administration comes in.

00:09:50.000 The project starts moving, and Secretary Burgum says they're getting things done 10 times faster and a fraction of the cost.

00:09:57.000 Check this out.

00:09:58.000 They supported the bid because they have the material, they have the capability, they have things.

00:10:03.000 Then you get in.

00:10:03.000 You're doing that.

00:10:04.000 The sucking pool is eight acres, it's the size of seven football fields.

00:10:08.000 It's taller than the Empire State Building, it's like the length of five Washington Monuments.

00:10:13.000 You get into that, there's two and a half miles of expansion joints.

00:10:16.000 The amount of things that they've uncovered that are extra cost, and then every time there's a rain, there's a rain delay.

00:10:22.000 They had to bring labor in for a lot of things.

00:10:23.000 Well, cost is one thing, profit is another.

00:10:25.000 Yeah, but if their costs are going up because of trying to get this project done, that's a theoretical number that somebody said they might make that much money.

00:10:32.000 It doesn't mean they're going to make that much money.

00:10:35.000 But what we are doing is we are getting the things fixed because this is the New York Times also wrote 12 years ago that the Obama administration spent more money.

00:10:44.000 The reflecting pool was closed for two years.

00:10:46.000 It never worked.

00:10:48.000 That thing, even right now, when we took this project over, was.

00:10:51.000 Leaking 45,000 gallons of water a day, 16 million gallons a year, because the thing never worked.

00:10:59.000 And they spent more money and it was closed for two years.

00:11:01.000 So everybody should be celebrating President Trump getting a project done in one tenth of time, so 10 times faster at a fraction of the cost of a previous administration.

00:11:11.000 There was no outrage then.

00:11:12.000 There should be outrage.

00:11:13.000 That thing turned into an LG driven slew.

00:11:17.000 And this thing is going to be fantastic.

00:11:19.000 It's going to be open in time for the celebration.

00:11:21.000 Pacehead77 said, Congrats on getting married.

00:11:23.000 Thank you very much.

00:11:24.000 I really appreciate it.

00:11:25.000 And Core 4444, yeah, while our roads are falling apart.

00:11:29.000 Well, guess what, guys?

00:11:30.000 We got to fix all of our infrastructure, okay?

00:11:33.000 And we're working on all of those things.

00:11:35.000 So, yes, but leaking 45,000 gallons of water a day at really the, let's call it the marketing department of the United States, our capital city, that's kind of a problem.

00:11:45.000 Let's get these things fixed up and cleaned out.

00:11:47.000 And what you just heard from Secretary Bergen's sort of important.

00:11:50.000 That's sort of like the whole theme for tonight.

00:11:53.000 Fix the leak, stop pretending the breakdown is normal, stop paying more for less, stop listening to the people who created the problem explain why the problem can never actually be solved, and maybe start making the country work again.

00:12:07.000 Start making things nice and clean and safe again.

00:12:11.000 Improve your quality of life rather than letting prestigious monuments decline.

00:12:16.000 That sounds so obvious, but in Washington, obvious is actually revolutionary because the permanent class does not really want solutions, it wants process.

00:12:27.000 It wants delay.

00:12:28.000 It wants excuses.

00:12:29.000 It wants another consultant, usually one of their friends.

00:12:32.000 It wants another task force that somehow never catches the people stealing the money.

00:12:37.000 It wants another sanctuary politician lecturing ice while agents get assaulted.

00:12:42.000 It wants another expert telling you basic common sense fixes cannot be done.

00:12:48.000 And your favorite president has a very different instinct.

00:12:52.000 And it's not just the Lincoln Memorial Pool.

00:12:54.000 Just look at the before and after of Meridian Hill Park, which was a disaster forever.

00:13:01.000 And now look at it.

00:13:02.000 Check this out.

00:13:17.000 And we saw the same thing when the National Guard came into D.C., cleaning up the streets, restoring order, and making people's lives better.

00:13:24.000 Find the problem, name the problem, fix the problem.

00:13:28.000 That's at the core of the MAGA mission.

00:13:31.000 Things like Trump accounts, a direct investment in American families, the fraud crackdown, border security, taking down predators and standing up for cops.

00:13:41.000 That's actually fixing the problems.

00:13:43.000 And these are real measurable benefits.

00:13:47.000 For example, just look at the math on the Trump accounts and what it means to invest in America's next generation right now.

00:13:55.000 People on your show all the time who have no savings or who spend their money on silly stuff or the wrong stuff.

00:14:01.000 Do these Trump accounts, like the Treasury Secretary was saying, do you think that they have the ability to change the way that a huge chunk of the country sees money?

00:14:10.000 Absolutely.

00:14:11.000 You can see the importance of investing now.

00:14:14.000 Just that $1,000 being put in, even if they don't contribute up to that $5,000 a year max, In the SP 500, that $1,000 over that 18 years just left alone will be $6,000.

00:14:28.000 If they contribute all the way up to the $5,000 max, which $2,500 can come from employers, that'll get up to $233,000 by 18, which is world changing.

00:14:40.000 That gets you into a house, that gets you paid for college, that gets you everything.

00:14:44.000 It gets these kids into the United States stock market, understanding where our economy is going, having a stake in it.

00:14:53.000 And honestly, It could be a teaching lesson for what Congress should have done with the Social Security Fund.

00:14:58.000 Think about that, guys.

00:15:00.000 That's real money in the pocket of a baby just born.

00:15:03.000 That's real investment, real wealth building, and real impact for families.

00:15:07.000 Frankly, that's real immersion into how finance actually works.

00:15:12.000 So, you know, when you actually have something, when you have something at stake, maybe you'll pay a little bit more attention.

00:15:16.000 Maybe you'll be bought in.

00:15:17.000 Maybe you'll learn about these things to be able to better it even further into the future, okay?

00:15:22.000 Learning about finance.

00:15:23.000 You know, I know we spent a lot of time learning about the 4,396 genders.

00:15:28.000 Learning about finance at a young age, being vested, having an interest in it, that's a really big deal.

00:15:36.000 Contrast that to what we're seeing on the left complete self parody at every turn and robotic rehearsed talking points, quite literally.

00:15:45.000 But don't take my word for it, guys.

00:15:49.000 Here's Texas decorations Senate candidate James Tallarico.

00:15:58.000 Corner of Texas over the course of this campaign, from Beaumont to El Paso, from Amarillo to Brownsville, and everywhere in between.

00:16:06.000 And I can't tell you the number of people who come up to me at the end of these events and whisper, I'm not a Democrat, like they're in the witness protection program.

00:16:21.000 Play that again, guys, because it's pretty amazing.

00:16:26.000 I had the notes up in there, the decorations, and it's Democrat, but hey, it's.

00:16:30.000 Sort of, it's one of those days.

00:16:32.000 It's been a long week, so I'm a little bit like Ron Burgundy.

00:16:34.000 If it's in the prompter, I'll just read it.

00:16:37.000 But play it again because it's so absurd.

00:16:40.000 Every corner of Texas over the course of this campaign, from Beaumont to El Paso, from Amarillo to Brownsville, and everywhere in between.

00:16:49.000 And I can't tell you the number of people who come up to me at the end of these events and whisper, I'm not a Democrat, like they're in the witness protection program.

00:16:58.000 I just saw one of the comments, actually pretty funny.

00:17:01.000 I missed the handle because it was a complicated one, but basically called it. Talafriko, which is actually much more accurate.

00:17:07.000 Okay.

00:17:08.000 Guys, it's all a script.

00:17:10.000 None of it's real.

00:17:11.000 It's completely manufactured because Democrats keep finding new ways to make basic common sense sound controversial somehow.

00:17:19.000 Just look at this press conference that happened last week.

00:17:23.000 Democrat lawmakers stood behind microphones holding signs that said things like, her agenda, health, equity, and rights.

00:17:31.000 And the pitch was that employers not paying women to stay at home from work when they are menstruating is, and you guessed it, folks, a form of economic violence.

00:17:45.000 Don't believe me?

00:17:46.000 Just watch for yourself. 1.00

00:17:49.000 It's why during Women's History Month, I've introduced legislation to give workers up to 12 days of paid leave a year for reproductive health. 0.99

00:17:57.000 This would cover period pain, yes, but also menopause symptoms, IVF, miscarriages, endometriosis flare ups, and more.

00:18:04.000 I'm here to speak to the thousands of women in southern Arizona who are tired of being ignored.

00:18:10.000 They are tired of having their pain minimized. 0.99

00:18:12.000 They are tired of a health care system that treats women's bodies like an afterthought. 0.91

00:18:17.000 Forcing a worker to choose between Paying her rent or losing a day pay to recover from a grueling gynecological procedure is not a choice. 1.00

00:18:27.000 It's an economic violence. 0.95

00:18:29.000 We are done being gaslit in the exam room.

00:18:32.000 Health is not a luxury and our pain is not an inconvenience.

00:18:37.000 So, not giving women an extra 12 days a year off, just off, is economic violence.

00:18:45.000 JD Jeff actually has a good point.

00:18:46.000 Wait a minute. 1.00

00:18:47.000 What is a woman? 0.97

00:18:49.000 The people who can't define women are sort of interesting.

00:18:52.000 I mean, for 12 days a year, man, I may identify as a woman, and then I too should probably have time off for period pains.

00:19:01.000 Can't make this stuff up. 0.83

00:19:03.000 But now, as Dr. Naomi Wolf pointed out, there goes 40 years of feminism in which we argued that treating women as impaired because they menstruate is actually discriminatory. 1.00

00:19:14.000 She's right.

00:19:15.000 It's like all those things, everyone wanted equality.

00:19:18.000 It's like, well, we want equality, but we want an extra 12 days a month off or 12 days a year off.

00:19:22.000 Whatever it may be, by the time they get done with it, they'll have 365 days a year off.

00:19:27.000 This is what the left does it takes a serious subject, it runs it through the activist language machine, and somehow it comes out sounding like an HR seminar written by a parody account.

00:19:40.000 That wasn't South Park, guys.

00:19:42.000 Those are people in Congress.

00:19:44.000 But it's not just parody.

00:19:47.000 What the left enables isn't just South Park or a South Park style press conferences, even though that's what they sound like.

00:19:54.000 It enables violence.

00:19:56.000 Violence, again, it all comes back to violence.

00:19:57.000 Everything that they don't like is violence, which brings us again to New Jersey.

00:20:02.000 We covered this last week, but New Jersey is back because over the weekend, anti ICE rioters gathered around Delaney Hall facility, which is an ICE facility there, where DHS officers were bitten, they were assaulted, and they were threatened.

00:20:19.000 So while ICE is trying to remove criminals from American communities, the activists show up to fight ICE, not the criminals, ICE.

00:20:27.000 The officers, the people trying to enforce the law, okay?

00:20:30.000 They bite them, okay?

00:20:32.000 Apparently, anything we say, you know, words are violence, everything's violence, not letting people take, you know, extra weeks off a year for menstrual pains is economic violence, everything's violence except for actual violence perpetrated against law enforcement.

00:20:47.000 Check this out.

00:21:17.000 This is where the left has ended up. 1.00

00:21:19.000 They cannot explain why the criminal illegal alien should stay.

00:21:24.000 They cannot explain why the detainer should be ignored.

00:21:28.000 They cannot explain why sanctuary politicians should make the arrest harder.

00:21:32.000 So instead, they attack the officer.

00:21:35.000 They attack the uniform.

00:21:37.000 They attack the mask.

00:21:38.000 They attack the facility.

00:21:39.000 They attack the idea of enforcement itself.

00:21:42.000 And then the media shows up and tries to turn the rioter into the hero.

00:21:48.000 It's backwards.

00:21:49.000 It's always backwards.

00:21:50.000 Totally backwards.

00:21:52.000 And DHS has been very clear the perimeter is secure and the operation continues because government cannot be held hostage by whoever.

00:22:02.000 Screams the loudest.

00:22:04.000 The law does not disappear because an activist brought a bullhorn. 1.00

00:22:08.000 It doesn't work that way.

00:22:09.000 The officer does not stop being an officer because someone on social media decided enforcement is mean.

00:22:15.000 And the citizen does not lose the right to public safety because a sanctuary politician wants applause from the radical left.

00:22:23.000 This is basic stuff here, guys.

00:22:25.000 If you are here illegally, and especially if you commit serious crimes, you should be removed.

00:22:31.000 If you assault a federal officer, you should be arrested.

00:22:35.000 And if you threaten a cop or his family, you should expect law enforcement to come looking for you.

00:22:42.000 Check this out.

00:22:43.000 For our neighborhoods, and the FBI is leading the charge.

00:22:47.000 By backing local cops and launching massive joint task forces, they're leading an all out assault on the thugs tearing our communities apart.

00:22:54.000 Working hand in hand, they've hunted down and locked up more than 45,000 violent criminals.

00:22:59.000 Because of that relentless push, violent crime arrests are up 185%, and the national murder rate just hit its lowest level since 1937.

00:23:08.000 Take a second and let that sink in.

00:23:11.000 It means your risk of being a victim's dropped at the fastest rate in modern history.

00:23:11.000 1937.

00:23:15.000 Violent crime plunged 10% nationwide, and the FBI didn't stop there.

00:23:20.000 They went straight after the syndicates, completely wiping 2,450 street gangs off the map.

00:23:26.000 That 322% increase choked off their ability to terrorize your communities so you and your family could walk the streets in peace.

00:23:32.000 And the poison flooding our streets?

00:23:35.000 2,600 kilograms of deadly fentanyl were seized, a 56% increase wiping more than a billion lethal doses completely off our streets.

00:23:42.000 So many lives saved.

00:23:44.000 We're trouncing the Biden administration's best years.

00:23:47.000 People can argue all they want, but the numbers don't lie.

00:23:50.000 With the FBI leading the charge, our streets are being reclaimed and our families are finally protected.

00:23:59.000 And, guys, that should not be controversial.

00:24:03.000 The fact that it feels controversial tells you how insane things got.

00:24:07.000 For years, Americans watched violent people get treated like symbols, they watched prosecutors downgrade cases, they watched politicians apologize for chaos.

00:24:16.000 Backing the police is not embarrassing.

00:24:18.000 Protecting the citizen is not embarrassing.

00:24:21.000 It's literally the first job of government.

00:24:24.000 It's literally the bare minimum.

00:24:25.000 It's the basics.

00:24:26.000 It's why we even have a government.

00:24:29.000 Find the predator, rescue the child, take down the violent criminal, catch the fraudster, protect the officer, protect the victim, protect the country.

00:24:39.000 Not treating parents at school board meetings like national security threats.

00:24:43.000 Do the job.

00:24:44.000 That's the point tonight.

00:24:46.000 The country is not asking for magic.

00:24:48.000 It's asking for competence.

00:24:50.000 It's asking for courage.

00:24:52.000 And that is what Team Trump is delivering.

00:24:57.000 It's asking institutions to remember who they actually work for.

00:25:01.000 And when they do, the results are pretty obvious.

00:25:04.000 Children get rescued, criminals are arrested, officers are defended, fraud is stopped.

00:25:08.000 That's what a functioning government looks like.

00:25:12.000 And while we're talking about institutions remembering who they work for, let's talk about California, because this story is unbelievable.

00:25:20.000 The Democrat mayor of Arcadia, California, Eileen Wong, admitted in a plea agreement.

00:25:26.000 That she secretly served the interest of the Chinese government, okay, the Chinese Communist Party.

00:25:32.000 Okay, a mayor of a California town was working for the Chinese Communist Party.

00:25:37.000 The Justice Department just charged her with acting in the United States as an illegal agent of a foreign government.

00:25:43.000 Check this out.

00:25:45.000 Ran and won for a Democrat seat. 0.89

00:25:48.000 The mayor of California City, Arcadia, is a Chinese spy.

00:25:54.000 That Arcadia mayor, Eileen Wong, just admitted to spreading propaganda for the People's Republic of China.

00:26:00.000 Right here on American soil.

00:26:02.000 Under the U.S. Constitution, committing an act of treason means adhering to U.S. enemies, giving them aid and comfort.

00:26:10.000 Is that what she did?

00:26:12.000 And just how far is China willing to go to interfere in our American politics?

00:26:18.000 I'm Harris Faulkner.

00:26:19.000 You are in the Faulkner Focus.

00:26:21.000 According to the Department of Justice, Eileen Wong and her former fiancée ran a fake website from 2020 to 2022.

00:26:28.000 They published articles at the direction of the Chinese government.

00:26:33.000 Here's an example from Wang's plea agreement in which she instructed to share a story denying the existence of genocide and forced labor camps inside China.

00:26:44.000 A 2023 report looked into the scope of Chinese espionage in the United States.

00:26:50.000 It found more than 200 incidents since 2000, with a significant spike in recent years.

00:26:56.000 Last month, the FBI also gave insight into China's nefarious tactics.

00:27:02.000 They do these very overt things to. 0.62

00:27:06.000 To scare the rest of the community, and they recruit people to report within the community.

00:27:13.000 So they're creating this Orwellian climate of fear where everyone is afraid.

00:27:19.000 Just stop and think about that, guys.

00:27:21.000 A sitting mayor in California, not some random person, an elected official, secretly serves the interest of the Chinese government.

00:27:29.000 And I'm sure she's not the only one. 0.98

00:27:31.000 She's just the first to get caught and actually prosecuted.

00:27:33.000 I'm sure this has been going on forever, and now we're finally cracking down on it.

00:27:37.000 Now, where have we heard this before?

00:27:40.000 Oh, that's right.

00:27:43.000 Fang Gang, Fang Fang, Eric Swallowell's mistress, remember? 0.97

00:27:47.000 On the Intelligence Committee, sitting member of California's congressional party at the national level, sleeping with a Chinese spy. 0.57

00:27:55.000 Oh, no big deal.

00:27:56.000 He can still be on the Intelligence Committee.

00:27:58.000 What could go wrong?

00:28:00.000 If you are elected to represent Americans, actually represent Americans, folks.

00:28:05.000 If you secretly act for a floor in government, answer for it.

00:28:08.000 If you break the law, face the law.

00:28:11.000 Again, none of this is complicated stuff.

00:28:14.000 But ask yourself, how many other examples are out there that Democrats are trying to hide?

00:28:21.000 It always seems to go that way.

00:28:23.000 It shouldn't surprise anyone.

00:28:24.000 I mean, just look at their policies, but it does always seem to go that way.

00:28:28.000 And guys, I think this matters because the country has been trained to expect decline.

00:28:33.000 Just accept it.

00:28:35.000 Expect it.

00:28:36.000 The country has been trained to hear that nothing can be fixed, programmed to believe that Washington cannot fix a pool.

00:28:44.000 Government cannot stop fraud.

00:28:46.000 Police can't stop disorder.

00:28:47.000 Everything is too hard, everything is too complicated, or everything has some sort of nuance that you just have to let it go and accept it.

00:28:54.000 Everything takes 10 years and costs 10 times more than anyone promised.

00:28:59.000 That's the mentality we're getting rid of.

00:29:01.000 Decline is a choice.

00:29:03.000 Weakness is a choice.

00:29:05.000 Excuses are a choice.

00:29:07.000 And rebuilding is a choice, too, which brings me back to where we started the reflecting pool.

00:29:13.000 The construction, the country getting ready to celebrate its 250th birthday, and yes, the UFC event at the White House.

00:29:22.000 Your favorite president showed off the Freedom 250 construction on the South Lawn.

00:29:26.000 And talked about a massive free celebration.

00:29:29.000 Check this out.

00:29:31.000 Arena that's being built for UFC.

00:29:33.000 It is huge.

00:29:34.000 And it's right at the front door to the White House.

00:29:37.000 And you'll never see it again.

00:29:39.000 It's never happened before, and you'll never see it again.

00:29:42.000 And it's great.

00:29:43.000 And the UFC is going to have all of their best fighters, the best fighters in the world.

00:29:46.000 They're all coming that night.

00:29:48.000 They all say, We want to fight at the White House.

00:29:50.000 And Dana's an amazing man.

00:29:53.000 He's done an amazing job.

00:29:55.000 He's put together something that this will be the highest rated event.

00:29:59.000 Maybe one of them ever in sports.

00:30:01.000 Well, you know, Dana always talks about the fact that when UFC was just at its beginning, you gave him an opportunity when a lot of people didn't.

00:30:08.000 And I think it really forged a friendship for you guys.

00:30:11.000 What he's done is amazing.

00:30:12.000 I'm not sure anybody could have done it but him.

00:30:14.000 You don't usually say that, but not many people could have.

00:30:17.000 He's a very special man.

00:30:18.000 But this is going, and it's all free.

00:30:20.000 It's going to soldiers.

00:30:22.000 We're going to have over 100,000, maybe 100,000 people in the park across the street.

00:30:27.000 Eight giant screens, and all free.

00:30:30.000 Great.

00:30:31.000 Guys, I love it because America is allowed to actually have fun again.

00:30:35.000 America is allowed to celebrate.

00:30:37.000 America is allowed to build something, and America is allowed to be proud.

00:30:41.000 And that drives the joyless left absolutely crazy.

00:30:45.000 They hate the idea that the country might actually enjoy itself.

00:30:49.000 They hate the idea that normal Americans might look around and say, you know what?

00:30:53.000 This place is worth fixing.

00:30:55.000 This place is worth defending, worth fighting for.

00:30:58.000 This place is worth celebrating.

00:31:00.000 Because their whole political model depends on convincing you.

00:31:03.000 That the country is a source of shame.

00:31:06.000 Trump's model is the opposite fix what's broken, defend what matters, celebrate what's great, and never apologize for putting America first.

00:31:16.000 And I think people feel that shift.

00:31:19.000 Politics is not just another argument on television, it is whether the place works, it is whether the streets are safe, it is whether the law means something or not, it is whether your tax dollars get treated with the respect they deserve.

00:31:36.000 It is whether the next generation is taught to build or taught to resent or taught to love America.

00:31:42.000 It is whether America walks into a room apologizing or walks into the room knowing exactly what it wants.

00:31:49.000 That is the contrast.

00:31:51.000 Again, not complicated.

00:31:53.000 We fix the leak, we find the fraud, we catch the crook, no apologies.

00:31:57.000 And guys, that is where the country is right now.

00:32:01.000 From excuses to results, from breakdown to rebuilding, from permanent decline to a country that remembers what it's capable of.

00:32:10.000 And that mission will continue all summer long and beyond, really, as long as this administration is there.

00:32:18.000 So, we've got a few minutes.

00:32:20.000 I'll take some of your questions.

00:32:21.000 We'll go live to the QA.

00:32:22.000 So, hopefully, you saved them up.

00:32:25.000 Hopefully, they go slow enough that I can actually read some of the longer ones. 0.89

00:32:29.000 You know, if you keep typing the same thing over and over again, it's the ridiculous drivel that sometimes, you know, the trolls get in there. 0.79

00:32:34.000 You know, don't bother, but you know, you're going to do what you're going to do. 0.95

00:32:39.000 Sounds like we have a big thunderstorm outside right now.

00:32:44.000 All right.

00:32:46.000 We need the results brought to California.

00:32:48.000 It's going down fast.

00:32:51.000 I agree.

00:32:53.000 And I think, you know, the Fraud Task Force, JD Vance has been on there.

00:32:53.000 It is.

00:32:56.000 They've uncovered billions of dollars already.

00:32:59.000 I'm sure they'll find a lot more.

00:33:02.000 You know, that's a big one, but they're actually doing that.

00:33:04.000 They're actually prosecuting criminals.

00:33:05.000 That's actually happening, and it's just starting.

00:33:07.000 So I imagine, you know, the bulk of that's going to be in California initially, but I'm sure it's going on elsewhere.

00:33:15.000 Ed Unkin, 16, congratulations on your wedding.

00:33:18.000 Thank you very much.

00:33:19.000 I really appreciate that.

00:33:20.000 It was an awesome weekend.

00:33:21.000 I know I showed you guys the video of last episode.

00:33:24.000 So if you don't see it there, I'm sure you can see it on my Instagram or something like that.

00:33:28.000 Or go check out the last episode here.

00:33:31.000 Just a little glimpse into that.

00:33:32.000 But it was an awesome small event, but just could not have asked for a better thing.

00:33:41.000 Frankly, could not ask for a better bride. 0.81

00:33:44.000 Bettina's just absolutely been awesome.

00:33:46.000 Literally, I have not had as much fun with someone in as long as I can remember. 0.97

00:33:51.000 She's just funny, smart, beautiful.

00:33:54.000 Just a great person.

00:33:55.000 So, super excited about that.

00:33:59.000 Don, is Trump trying to pull out of Iran soon?

00:34:01.000 Democrats want him to get sucked into a quagmire there.

00:34:04.000 Listen, I think they're working on it.

00:34:05.000 Obviously, I'm definitely one of those not forever war guys.

00:34:10.000 So, I want to make sure that doesn't happen.

00:34:11.000 I think it's also sort of hard to overlook 47 years of insanity that's gone on there.

00:34:18.000 So, a little bit torn.

00:34:20.000 But again, I don't want to get sucked into something forever.

00:34:22.000 Hopefully, we can get to a deal.

00:34:25.000 Hopefully, we can get out of that thing, get back to normalcy. 0.90

00:34:29.000 But I think we also can't forget the countless American service members that were killed or maimed by the IRGC and their IED warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the amount of damage that they did as the world leading state sponsor of terror. 0.78

00:34:46.000 That's a problem that we've got to deal with. 0.51

00:34:49.000 But I definitely don't want to get sucked into a quagmire.

00:34:52.000 And I trust the people who are in that negotiating room trying to do the best thing.

00:34:56.000 And we'll see what happens shortly.

00:34:58.000 Yoholo, have you gone hunting lately?

00:35:00.000 No, actually, I haven't.

00:35:02.000 It's not really the season for it right now.

00:35:04.000 I mean, there's some decent spring stuff, but, you know, between getting married and all that stuff.

00:35:07.000 But I did go spearfishing and fly fishing in the Bahamas while I was getting married.

00:35:13.000 So I managed to get some fishing in, managed to get some free diving in and spearing while we're there.

00:35:19.000 So, you know, I always try to, if I can, no matter where I am, no matter what it is, if I can get some of that in there, I'm always trying to do that.

00:35:26.000 So I had a blast doing that.

00:35:28.000 I'll probably, yeah, maybe I'll even share some of the, actually, because we had all this.

00:35:32.000 Photographers there for the wedding.

00:35:33.000 I was like, come with me fishing and let's see what happens.

00:35:35.000 So, could have some cool stuff for there.

00:35:37.000 I'll show you guys either here on the next show.

00:35:41.000 Maybe I'll throw it up on my Instagram page, whatever it is.

00:35:45.000 But that's a big one.

00:35:48.000 Is it true you fight over the window seat with your brother Eric on flights?

00:35:53.000 I mean, I usually prefer the window seat just because, you know, you don't have people bumping into you all the time and you don't have that person that has to go to the bathroom 12 times, like sort of, you know, Nudging you to get out there because I fly a lot of commercial, as most of you know.

00:35:53.000 No.

00:36:07.000 I fly a lot of commercial coach because it doesn't always make sense.

00:36:10.000 Usually, it doesn't make sense to fly private, especially for me when I'm going on business trips.

00:36:14.000 I may just go in and out pretty quickly and I'm by myself.

00:36:17.000 It doesn't make much sense.

00:36:18.000 But I don't know that we've ever fought over the window seat.

00:36:22.000 But I don't know.

00:36:24.000 I'm sure someone started that story.

00:36:26.000 So who knows?

00:36:28.000 Let's see.

00:36:32.000 Tell us how steaks taste in 2026.

00:36:35.000 I don't even know what that means, but I don't know.

00:36:38.000 I like steaks whenever I can have them.

00:36:40.000 So, generally speaking, I haven't noticed a taste change.

00:36:45.000 Will there be a Trump golf course on the moon or Mars in the future?

00:36:48.000 Jules 31, 4, 1, 5.

00:36:52.000 Not likely.

00:36:53.000 Although, as someone who doesn't play golf, it'd be kind of nice because I could drive the hell out of the ball.

00:36:57.000 I was always actually pretty long when I did play.

00:37:02.000 But without gravity, I think it could be problematic.

00:37:05.000 Although I guess there's a lot of gravity on Mars.

00:37:06.000 So maybe you need to hit Bryson level balls to be able to hit 100 yards.

00:37:12.000 Who knows?

00:37:17.000 Pace that to 77.

00:37:18.000 Appreciate what you and your family are doing.

00:37:20.000 Well, it's my.

00:37:22.000 We appreciate it.

00:37:22.000 Pleasure.

00:37:23.000 You know, we've sort of gotten used to this nonsense, but you know, some things are actually worth fighting for.

00:37:28.000 This country and the future country that we leave our children is obviously one of those things.

00:37:35.000 Would you ever run for President Jules again?

00:37:38.000 I don't know.

00:37:38.000 Right now, I guess my focus is on just trying to help my father and this administration, you know, break through the narrative, the media, you know, fight for what's right.

00:37:46.000 So my focus has been entirely on just trying to, you know, get them the credit that they deserve.

00:37:52.000 Highlight the things that are actually happening that the media will obviously never cover.

00:37:56.000 That's a big part of what I do.

00:37:58.000 If and when the time is right down the road, and if I was the only guy that could do it, or you needed that person, whatever it may be, who knows?

00:38:07.000 Maybe, but my focus has really been entirely on just making sure that this administration gets whatever air cover I can give it, as well as those who are supportive of that.

00:38:18.000 So, Comfort and Joy 22.

00:38:21.000 How can you get used to so much nonsense?

00:38:23.000 It's too much.

00:38:26.000 Yeah, I guess that was Brian.

00:38:27.000 Brian took a while.

00:38:28.000 I mean, first term, obviously, I dealt with all that stuff with Russia, Russia, Russia.

00:38:32.000 And, you know, who knows?

00:38:32.000 If you lose the House in November, and that's what historically happens, hopefully people wake up and realize that Democrats are a disaster for our country.

00:38:39.000 But, you know, that's what they're going to do it again.

00:38:40.000 And they'll come up with their next Russia, Russia, Russia.

00:38:42.000 And they'll go through it again.

00:38:44.000 But after a while, you just get desensitized to it.

00:38:48.000 I guess I figured out in the first term, perhaps, you know, what I, one of the things I guess I inherited from my father is just our fight.

00:38:55.000 And, you know, you didn't know you had it until you're actually backed in the corner.

00:38:58.000 And then, That's what you do. 1.00

00:38:59.000 You fight back and you go up against the stupidity. 1.00

00:39:03.000 And so I've gotten used to that. 1.00

00:39:06.000 We shouldn't have to get accustomed to this stuff because, you know, unfortunately the left fights differently than we do.

00:39:11.000 Maybe if we fought back the way they did and you had all of the Republicans actually doing that, maybe it would stop because if they realized there's consequences to their actions when things change, maybe they wouldn't be so glib about it.

00:39:21.000 But, you know, that's just not, unfortunately, it's not the way we do things.

00:39:25.000 And I'd love for neither party to have to do those things.

00:39:29.000 But I think until we start playing the game that Democrats play and they feel they can get away with those things untouched, they're going to keep doing it.

00:39:34.000 So we'll have to deal with it accordingly.

00:39:43.000 The Trump family are proper fighters, proper Westmen.

00:39:47.000 Biospirit of the West, thank you.

00:39:48.000 I appreciate it.

00:39:50.000 Don Jr., will your dad make aliens great again?

00:39:52.000 You know what?

00:39:53.000 I know they released some government alien websites.

00:39:56.000 So I haven't, honestly, I haven't even had a chance to really look into what it means.

00:40:04.000 But I'm sure we'll get into that in a future show.

00:40:07.000 I don't know.

00:40:09.000 I'm just sort of a statistics guy.

00:40:11.000 So, do I think aliens exist?

00:40:13.000 Of course.

00:40:13.000 I think we'd be, even I don't have the hubris to assume in a vastly infinite universe that we'd be the only form of life there.

00:40:21.000 Now, I'm sure there's forms of life that aren't developed enough to actually get to us.

00:40:24.000 And I'm sure there's some that are probably a lot more.

00:40:26.000 But to talk about infinity and to say we could be the only thing that happened to exist in that amount of space.

00:40:34.000 Not likely.

00:40:34.000 So I think I've always figured there was definitely something else out there.

00:40:39.000 Hopefully, we'll find out about it and get all of those details.

00:40:42.000 Let's see.

00:40:46.000 Make aliens great again, make aliens great again, make aliens.

00:40:48.000 Okay, like I got it.

00:40:49.000 As long as we're talking about extraterrestrial aliens, not illegal aliens, in which case we got to deport.

00:40:56.000 But, you know, let's see.

00:40:59.000 I read that you're thinking about doing The Apprentice again, Junior.

00:41:01.000 You know what?

00:41:02.000 That wasn't me.

00:41:03.000 No one's actually contacted me about that.

00:41:05.000 I guess I heard that, you know, some people maybe at Amazon, I guess they're doing something on The Apprentice and the original ones.

00:41:11.000 Since I was on that or whatever, I guess they were talking about maybe doing a re up of that.

00:41:16.000 And perhaps they were having conversations about me doing it, but no one actually reached out to me about it.

00:41:19.000 So I don't actually know if that's true or not.

00:41:22.000 I guess, you know, like anything else, it's an honor to be considered.

00:41:27.000 Perhaps they feel I have the personality to pull that off as a TV show.

00:41:30.000 I'm not sure I have the time or, frankly, the desire.

00:41:34.000 But, you know, it was a fun moment in our lives.

00:41:38.000 It was sort of my father's thing.

00:41:39.000 I don't need to jump onto that.

00:41:41.000 I guess he dragged us into this political thing, and because we're fighters, we fight.

00:41:46.000 But, you know, I sort of feel that's probably his thing.

00:41:49.000 So even if asked, I don't know that I'd actually want to do it.

00:41:54.000 It's sort of funny because it's certainly an interesting moment in our time.

00:41:57.000 I think it sort of launched at least a component of his political career, just put him in a different light because you could relate to him, whether it's the humor, whether it's the way he looked at a real world situation, came up with sort of a brass tacks response quickly and on the fly.

00:42:14.000 You're like, oh, this guy's just perhaps a little bit different than a lot of those others.

00:42:17.000 So, Ace Grunt 0311, are you into equestrian and horses?

00:42:25.000 Not really.

00:42:26.000 I mean, I guess I ride on like a lot of my hunting trips.

00:42:28.000 I do a lot of backcountry stuff, sort of like really remote stuff that you probably can't get to any other way.

00:42:33.000 So you could hike or ride.

00:42:34.000 Generally speaking, I'd probably usually rather hike because when you're hunting and you have to, you know, climb over a mountain, sometimes the horses can't actually get to those places.

00:42:40.000 So if you go up and over the mountain, then you got to come back to the horses rather than just continuing on to find out what you're looking for.

00:42:47.000 But, you know, so I'm capable of riding.

00:42:50.000 I can, you know, I can do some of that relatively well, but like I'm not a jumper or that kind of stuff.

00:42:56.000 Bettina is, she grew up doing a lot of that.

00:42:59.000 So, you know, she would, we have to have her on. 1.00

00:43:03.000 She could be the equestrian expert on these kind of things. 0.96

00:43:07.000 She's frankly much better at it than I am.

00:43:09.000 But, you know, again, I can get by.

00:43:14.000 I could survive in the rugged wilderness with horses that I can do.

00:43:18.000 The fancy stuff, not so much for me.

00:43:24.000 Don Jr., serious question Will you join the Make Aliens Great Again movement?

00:43:27.000 I mean, this one keeps coming back up.

00:43:28.000 It's a serious because.

00:43:31.000 We, Manga, want disclosure.

00:43:32.000 Thanks, bud.

00:43:33.000 Yeah, listen, I want disclosure too.

00:43:34.000 I mean, I sort of, again, like I sort of said, I intuitively think, of course, there has to be something.

00:43:34.000 I want to know.

00:43:41.000 But, you know, I'd like to see the actual evidence.

00:43:45.000 I'd like to know the level of sophistication.

00:43:47.000 I like, you know, if they can get here, they're probably pretty freaking sophisticated.

00:43:50.000 But so I sort of assumed all these things did way before we even got into politics, just because, again, statistics say that it'd be sort of hard to believe we'd be the only thing in a universe as large as ours is.

00:44:03.000 So, Let's see.

00:44:06.000 Yep.

00:44:06.000 Yes.

00:44:07.000 No, Bettina is a skilled writer. 0.99

00:44:08.000 I've seen her do it. 1.00

00:44:08.000 She's good at it. 1.00

00:44:09.000 I've probably posted her doing it. 0.74

00:44:12.000 Doesn't do too much of it these days, but now, just for fun, every once in a while, she'll get out.

00:44:16.000 And even after not doing it for a long time, she can get up and jump some stuff that I'd probably fall off and break my neck, which would probably please a lot of people on the left.

00:44:23.000 But also, why I probably don't do too much of it.

00:44:28.000 Let's see.

00:44:33.000 Let's see.

00:44:40.000 Well, President Trump disclosed that there are actually aliens through disclosure.

00:44:44.000 I guess you mean, will President Trump do it?

00:44:48.000 Like I said, they teased the website, so I imagine they're going to put some stuff out there.

00:44:48.000 I don't know.

00:44:52.000 I have not had a chance to look at it.

00:44:53.000 I was, again, sort of busy doing the getting married things.

00:45:02.000 Oh, the aliens.gov.

00:45:04.000 Oh, okay.

00:45:05.000 That's how out of the loop I've been.

00:45:06.000 Like I said, guys, I got married last week and relaxed.

00:45:11.000 The aliens.gov website was actually about deporting criminal illegal aliens.

00:45:14.000 Okay, well, I. 0.76

00:45:16.000 I mean, it's funny.

00:45:19.000 I don't know that it's what everyone was looking for, but they've shown a bunch of other stuff and disclosed a bunch of things that basically proves that they're out there.

00:45:24.000 I guess there's so much other crazy shit going on in the world that even when they basically acknowledge that there is stuff out there, it was sort of like, well, I don't know.

00:45:34.000 We got bigger things to worry about, which is interesting. 0.96

00:45:36.000 I'm upset about the targeting of Ivanka, your sister, through the IRGC stuff.

00:45:40.000 Yeah, me too.

00:45:41.000 That's never fun.

00:45:42.000 And we've dealt with that, phones getting hacked.

00:45:46.000 All the threats and attempted other things, whether it's, you know, Ivanka or myself or other members of our family and my daughter.

00:45:52.000 It's, you know, there's, they're always playing the game.

00:45:56.000 Uh, it sort of sucks, but you know, like I said, hopefully we get through that, come up with a deal that works well for everyone in the world.

00:46:03.000 And, uh, that's, uh, you know, that's what I'd love to see.

00:46:10.000 Uh, let's see.

00:46:16.000 Come on, I can't do it for a long time.

00:46:18.000 She's been too old these days.

00:46:19.000 She drinks for the pain.

00:46:21.000 I don't know.

00:46:22.000 I mean, she seems to be running pretty well in the Democrat Party. 1.00

00:46:24.000 And when you think about, like, just sort of the race politics of this, which is obviously a very real thing, you know, I can get in trouble for saying these kinds of things, but they're true. 0.69

00:46:35.000 You know, the way the Democrat primary is structured, it sort of heavily relies on, you know, the racial component of those things early on, you know, South Carolina being a very early state and all of the politics there. 1.00

00:46:45.000 So who knows, man?

00:46:46.000 She could be your nominee in 2028 quite easily.

00:46:50.000 That's not, but I mean, I guess I'd probably be very thankful for that.

00:46:53.000 But You know, you could see that happening.

00:46:56.000 And then, you know, you look at the other front runners and you look at their policies and you look at what they've been governing.

00:47:00.000 I'm like, I don't know.

00:47:03.000 Would she be any worse than Newsom?

00:47:04.000 Like, sort of hard to believe, but we'll see.

00:47:11.000 Let's see.

00:47:16.000 What do you make of the UAP topic?

00:47:18.000 Are we soon to be told about aliens or is transparency?

00:47:21.000 Decide for yourself.

00:47:22.000 Like many, we're on the verge of earth changing announcements.

00:47:24.000 I'm very anxious.

00:47:25.000 Like I said, I think they're real.

00:47:27.000 I don't, you know, I. Again, that has nothing to do with even the stuff that's out there.

00:47:31.000 It seems like they've posted a lot of video in the last couple of months that seems to be stuff that, unless we're really far behind in technology, which I don't think we are, that they're real.

00:47:44.000 But I sort of didn't need those videos to just, again, statistically assume that, of course, we're not alone in the world or in the universe.

00:47:53.000 So I'd like to see more.

00:47:54.000 I'd like to see definitive proof.

00:47:55.000 I'd like to see what we have.

00:47:57.000 I think that's probably useful for everyone.

00:48:00.000 But You know, I'm not exactly shocked.

00:48:03.000 Spencer Pratt, Loving the Jazz.

00:48:07.000 Listen, man, seems like he has a lot of common sense in there.

00:48:11.000 Okay, probably not what you would have thought from, you know, a reality TV star from, you know, whatever it was two decades ago.

00:48:20.000 And yet, you probably wouldn't have thought that a reality star from two decades ago would be the president of the United States.

00:48:25.000 So I think, again, his videos are great.

00:48:28.000 They have no answer for them other than, you know, having the leftist media try to, you know, shame this guy for speaking the truth and being right about.

00:48:35.000 At least the stuff I've seen so far, basically everything.

00:48:39.000 So, you know, I really hope he wins.

00:48:41.000 I hope he can change California. 0.97

00:48:42.000 There's a lot of very active leftist people that are even saying, okay, like, yeah, California's turned into a shithole.

00:48:47.000 Like, we got to actually change these things, Los Angeles, especially.

00:48:52.000 So, you know, I think he'll do what's right.

00:48:54.000 I don't think he cares about conforming to those things.

00:48:57.000 And so, if we can get some change that's for the better of our citizens and the people of those cities, I think that's a really big deal and, you know, would be awesome.

00:49:10.000 Let's see.

00:49:11.000 Ace Grunt, excited for UFC and the World Cup.

00:49:13.000 Yes, I am.

00:49:14.000 I mean, I think the World Cup's going to be an incredible event.

00:49:17.000 I think I'm supposed to go to the finals.

00:49:18.000 I think it's July 19th or something like that.

00:49:20.000 So excited for that.

00:49:22.000 That's going to be a really big one.

00:49:25.000 And obviously, the UFC, I think it's no surprise that I'm a fight fan, whether it's boxing, whether it's UFC, all of those things.

00:49:33.000 I love that stuff.

00:49:34.000 So to be able to go sit on the White House lawn, I think, again, probably will never happen again.

00:49:38.000 It could, but I don't know that there's another president that would ever do that.

00:49:47.000 And so that should be just a cool fight.

00:49:51.000 History sort of kicking off the 250th a little bit early, but I think that's going to be awesome.

00:49:56.000 So I can't wait to go up there and check that out.

00:49:59.000 And, you know, that'll be fun.

00:50:02.000 Let's see.

00:50:06.000 Many patriotic Mexicans like Trump, but their voter turnout is low.

00:50:09.000 Well, hopefully we change that.

00:50:10.000 Again, you know, some of the most patriotic Americans I know are like those people who are not necessarily born here, but they went through the process.

00:50:17.000 They did so legally, they're vested, you know.

00:50:20.000 They're great.

00:50:21.000 They didn't just cut the line.

00:50:23.000 They went through the process.

00:50:24.000 And because of that, they understand it.

00:50:25.000 And hopefully, those people turn out and they look at what the Democrat Party has in store for them.

00:50:32.000 And I think that's a really big deal.

00:50:33.000 And I think it can make a big difference.

00:50:35.000 And so I think we get them there eventually.

00:50:38.000 But let's hope so.

00:50:41.000 Come on, Intrepid Spore Fishing out of San Diego.

00:50:44.000 JDK, GNG, NNDMS.

00:50:48.000 I have no idea how to say that.

00:50:50.000 Listen, if I make it out to California, I've been invited out to San Diego to mostly do the spearfishing, actually.

00:50:55.000 The guys I know that we do a lot of free diving and spearfishing with said to come out there for that, like, you know, the tuna bite and do the spearing for that, which is super fun and intense.

00:51:04.000 I've not done it in California, but I've done it elsewhere.

00:51:07.000 So, you know, that could be a lot of fun.

00:51:10.000 And, you know, one day would love to do that.

00:51:16.000 Appreciate it.

00:51:18.000 Random account in 10K, appreciate it.

00:51:21.000 Like, does your dad know what they're preparing a speech?

00:51:24.000 Or is it a, we don't know what these are, decide for yourself?

00:51:29.000 I guess we're back to aliens.

00:51:31.000 We aren't alone.

00:51:32.000 Speech this summer.

00:51:33.000 Honestly, guys, I don't know.

00:51:36.000 I don't know.

00:51:37.000 I imagine he's about that transparency on that.

00:51:41.000 So if there's something that they can show, they probably will.

00:51:45.000 As you guys probably saw, even like the kickoff of the 2020 campaign, I had my dad on the podcast, really before it was the podcast.

00:51:51.000 It was like sort of, I think it was just on Facebook at the time.

00:51:55.000 Was talking about them, and that was literally the only question I wanted to know.

00:51:57.000 Like, hey, are they real?

00:51:58.000 What are we hiding?

00:51:58.000 What do we need to know?

00:51:59.000 So, I want to see that as much as you guys do, and I hope they get there.

00:52:07.000 I hope someone ate those fish you speared.

00:52:09.000 Guys, here we go.

00:52:13.000 That's like the rule of these things.

00:52:14.000 If you're going to go out there and you're going to kill these things, whether it's hunting or fishing or something like that, that meat, the fish, they're going to get it eaten, and it's sort of how it's done.

00:52:26.000 Roxy Ann, how do you spear a fish?

00:52:28.000 There's a couple different ways.

00:52:30.000 If you're in the Bahamas, for example, it's only pole spear or Hawaiian sling.

00:52:33.000 Hawaiian sling is basically like an underwater bow and arrow.

00:52:35.000 You have a spear, a little flipper, you go out, there's a wooden tube, you put it through, there's a rubber band like a slingshot, and you literally go down, aim this spear, shoot it through a fish, grab the spear, or you have a pole spear, which is basically a longer spear that has the rubber band attached to it, and you go and you sort of grip down.

00:52:54.000 And so when you hold it, you release, and the thing shoots forward a couple feet, so you have to dive down, hold your breath, get close, find where these fish are, oftentimes up under rocks and everything like that.

00:53:03.000 You do that.

00:53:04.000 Then for the bigger stuff like bluefin, you can't do this in the Bahamas because it's illegal, but you have like a spear gun, which is basically, again, I think of it like an underwater crossbow, just rubber bands down a gun, trigger mechanism releases the shaft, it shoots forward like, again, cross between archery and shooting.

00:53:22.000 All of it's a very close proximity game, at least for the most part.

00:53:25.000 It's done, and the only way I do it is free diving.

00:53:28.000 So you hold your breath, you dive down 50, even some of the stuff I do.

00:53:34.000 Some of the guys I go with are really good.

00:53:35.000 I mean, they hunt at 150 feet, 200 feet, holding their breath.

00:53:38.000 For me, I can get down to about 100 and hunt there.

00:53:41.000 But.

00:53:43.000 I don't do it enough to get awesome.

00:53:45.000 I do it enough to be probably dangerous, but I still make it done and make it happen and get it done.

00:53:52.000 Yeah, that's exciting underwater.

00:53:53.000 I mean, it's cool.

00:53:53.000 It's super fun.

00:53:56.000 The Marines go spearfishing in Okinawa all the time.

00:53:58.000 Good times, Fairway King. 1.00

00:54:00.000 I hope they do.

00:54:01.000 I know there's decent diving over there.

00:54:02.000 I've never done it in Japan, but I know there's a long history of sort of free divers.

00:54:05.000 I guess most of those guys were doing it for pearls and whatever it was, but it's super cool.

00:54:10.000 Yeah, maybe one day.

00:54:11.000 I got to do something.

00:54:12.000 I keep talking about it.

00:54:13.000 I got to eventually do something on some of the outdoor stuff just so you can see it because we got some pretty cool video of the.

00:54:17.000 You know, spearfishing and like, you know, shooting giant bluefin tuna and these kinds of things with spear guns.

00:54:23.000 It's super intense.

00:54:26.000 Let's see.

00:54:30.000 Sorry for my username.

00:54:31.000 Book a private charter.

00:54:32.000 We have the best crew, best food.

00:54:34.000 Look up at Truppet Sport Fishing.

00:54:36.000 Consider it.

00:54:37.000 We are the best boat.

00:54:38.000 We can have a limited load with 13 of your buddies.

00:54:41.000 13 guys fishing is a lot usually in a boat, but, you know, maybe it's a really big boat and that could be fun.

00:54:45.000 But yeah, if I make it out there, I will definitely do that.

00:54:47.000 I do a lot of it myself out here.

00:54:49.000 You know, I usually just.

00:54:52.000 Go out on my own boat and do it, but it's always cool to try out new waters, different species, whatever it may be, and check it out.

00:55:01.000 Ava Pop, A2020.

00:55:02.000 I know.

00:55:02.000 Your ring is nice too.

00:55:05.000 Getting used to this.

00:55:08.000 I'm like a fidgeter, right?

00:55:09.000 So it's like I can sit there and play with this thing all day long.

00:55:12.000 But Tina likes it.

00:55:15.000 So far, I've put up with it.

00:55:16.000 I've never worn a ring or really much jewelry in my life.

00:55:19.000 So not really my thing, but.

00:55:23.000 Happy wife, happy life, and she is worth it.

00:55:28.000 And so I will put up with it for as long as I possibly can unless I lose my mind, in which case I'm sure I'll be sleeping on the couch for a couple days.

00:55:38.000 Burnt match, keep the gray hair.

00:55:40.000 I know, it's getting bad.

00:55:41.000 It's like, this is, yeah, not a spring chicken anymore, guys.

00:55:45.000 You know, 48 and counting away.

00:55:49.000 But it's okay.

00:55:51.000 Again, I'm not all that vain or care all that much, so I just have let it go and never really cared.

00:55:55.000 Yes, Patina looked beautiful.

00:55:56.000 Everything was elegant and tasteful.

00:55:58.000 Thank you so much.

00:56:00.000 125 foot boat.

00:56:02.000 That's a serious fishing boat.

00:56:05.000 Are you acquiring the Bahamas?

00:56:06.000 No.

00:56:08.000 I mean, I love the Bahamas.

00:56:09.000 Don't get me wrong.

00:56:11.000 Especially, I have a lot of friends there, just great fishing, great diving, all of the stuff that I love to do.

00:56:18.000 And it's also like a 45 minute flight from where I live.

00:56:20.000 So it's like to be able to take a 45 minute flight and.

00:56:26.000 Just seemingly be in a different world is sort of a nice escape.

00:56:30.000 So, yeah, love America.

00:56:31.000 I love all my stuff here.

00:56:32.000 But if I'm going to escape somewhere, I love going there, and I don't have to fly halfway around the world to do that, which is really nice.

00:56:42.000 Let's see.

00:56:43.000 What's the most exciting part of the wedding reception for you?

00:56:46.000 Well, there were a couple of exciting parts, actually.

00:56:48.000 Bettina did a great job planning all this stuff, so she made it fun.

00:56:50.000 So, literally, everyone there was like, that was the most fun wedding we've ever been to because it wasn't stuffy.

00:56:56.000 It was like, I mean, we had the guys had guy days, and we'd go off and go spearfishing and fishing, and they had Beer pong tournaments and stuff like that.

00:57:06.000 It was, you know, it was pretty fun.

00:57:08.000 And then we come back and do the, you know, the nice stuff, but it was really small, like just really close friends.

00:57:15.000 It just tried to keep it really tight.

00:57:19.000 And it was just awesome.

00:57:21.000 So it was just, it was a blast.

00:57:23.000 And like I said, just so happy to, you know, be married with Bettina and start our lives together.

00:57:31.000 So much nonsense, you know, just went on, you know, before that and people getting and trying to do their thing.

00:57:37.000 And, you know, you've, Probably read half of it in the press and half of it they can't even write because it's so ridiculous that it's sort of hard to prove it. 0.92

00:57:44.000 But you deal with that nonsense all the time.

00:57:48.000 And so it was just an awesome time.

00:57:52.000 So, best part is when it's over.

00:57:56.000 No, no, no.

00:57:56.000 This was one of those, honestly.

00:57:57.000 Okay.

00:57:58.000 Yes.

00:57:58.000 Any wedding I've been to in the past, it's like, okay, you know, been there, got the t shirt, you know, moved on.

00:58:03.000 Like, this was one of those that were like, this sucks.

00:58:06.000 We don't want to leave. 0.95

00:58:07.000 And I think everyone else had that same.

00:58:09.000 Mentality.

00:58:09.000 It was that's the first time I've ever had that happen where it seemed like the unanimous thing that people volunteered to me, not saying it, and it was like that was actually the most fun wedding we've ever been to.

00:58:17.000 So it was awesome.

00:58:22.000 And yeah, I was super happy about that.

00:58:24.000 So let's see.

00:58:30.000 Our wedding rings were good investments.

00:58:31.000 Gold was $40 an ounce.

00:58:33.000 See, you know, hey, check out the guys from Gold Co.

00:58:36.000 You can, you know, check out our sponsors down below in the video's description, guys.

00:58:41.000 It's true.

00:58:41.000 You can.

00:58:43.000 Get Bettina pregnant soon, dude.

00:58:45.000 Franklin779.

00:58:48.000 Guys, you know what?

00:58:49.000 We'll see what happens.

00:58:50.000 But in the meantime, I think we can all enjoy practicing.

00:58:54.000 That one's going to get me into trouble too with her and everyone else.

00:58:59.000 Let's see. 0.68

00:59:01.000 New ballroom must be exciting for everyone.

00:59:02.000 Did you and Eric help with this?

00:59:04.000 I think Eric got involved in the construction stuff because he does a lot more of that than I do these days.

00:59:09.000 So, you know, just making sure things are done efficiently and effectively.

00:59:14.000 And remember, it's privately funded.

00:59:15.000 So, You know, we don't have the leftists who are lying out there.

00:59:18.000 Oh my God, it's costing the taxpayers.

00:59:19.000 It's not.

00:59:20.000 It's just making the White House actually more functional and, you know, hopefully avoiding, you know, future assassination attempts.

00:59:26.000 So that's kind of a big deal.

00:59:27.000 But let's see.

00:59:29.000 JD Jeff, yeah, practice makes perfect.

00:59:30.000 I agree.

00:59:31.000 Gildy, I love practicing.

00:59:32.000 Me too.

00:59:34.000 Frankly, it's one of my favorite things to do.

00:59:36.000 So anyway, it sure is.
