Triggered - Donald Trump Jr - Righting the Left’s Wrongs, Plus Explosive 2020 Revelations | Triggered Ep.315

00:06:22.000 Hey guys, welcome to another huge episode of Triggered.

00:06:26.000 I hope everyone had a great weekend.

00:06:28.000 Congratulations to the Seahawks on their second Lombardi trophy last night.

00:06:33.000 Probably wanted to go the other way simply because I'm friends with Bob Kraft and you know, it would have been nice, but you know, it's all good.

00:06:39.000 I actually didn't even get to watch much of the game.

00:06:41.000 I was a little bit crazy.

00:06:42.000 But anyway, I was thinking about it, and the Bad Bunny halftime show must have been what Biden basically felt like every day of the presidency.

00:06:56.000 Wasn't really sure what was going on, couldn't actually understand anything.

00:07:00.000 And most of the country was just standing there, at best, just pretending that they had a clue as to what was actually happening.

00:07:10.000 But anyway, we've got so much to get into today, a lot to talk about.

00:07:15.000 A lot of other things happened over the weekend.

00:07:17.000 We've got newly uncovered 2020 FBI memos showing that the Federal Bureau of Investigations was gaming out how to handle a contested 2020 election months in advance.

00:07:34.000 Huh, I wonder why you'd have to do that months in advance.

00:07:37.000 I wonder if it was real and wasn't fake and there wasn't cheating and there wasn't all sorts of shady stuff going on.

00:07:45.000 Why you'd have to game that out?

00:07:47.000 It's interesting.

00:07:48.000 We've got Chinese Communist Party-linked bio labs getting raided on American soil.

00:07:54.000 Something, again, you're not really hearing about much on TV, while the Biden administration apparently tried to bury the whole thing.

00:08:02.000 We've also got big news on the Trump accounts, on Trump RX, and things the White House is doing to actually increase the quality of your life.

00:08:12.000 You know, the things that matter to actual Americans.

00:08:15.000 So buckle up, guys.

00:08:16.000 Let's get into all of it.

00:09:15.000 Look, Rumble has never wavered in its support of free speech, okay?

00:09:19.000 Consistently and by far, the best platform out there since they started.

00:09:25.000 I think I was the second verified user on the platform, so I know.

00:09:28.000 It's why I don't also do this on YouTube and other places.

00:09:32.000 They actually believe in it.

00:09:34.000 And now they have introduced something that will give us protection from the big banks shutting us off.

00:09:40.000 So that's why they launched Rumble Wallet, a wallet that no one can cancel and a wallet that supports and supporters can use to instantly tip creators without any middlemen taking any cuts.

00:09:52.000 With Rumble Wallet, you control your money.

00:09:55.000 Not a bank, not a government, not a tech company, not even Rumble can touch it.

00:10:00.000 It's yours and it's only yours.

00:10:03.000 You can even buy and save digital assets all in one place.

00:10:27.000 And also, guys, don't forget about the Birch Gold Group, where you can diversify your savings and protect your future.

00:10:34.000 The Trump administration is moving fast to right all of the left's wrongs.

00:10:40.000 But with all the damage we've seen the Democrats do, it's always smart to be prepared.

00:10:46.000 And that's why thousands of Americans are buying gold now from the Birch Gold Group.

00:10:50.000 Here are the facts.

00:10:51.000 In the past 12 months, the value of gold has increased by 30%.

00:10:56.000 And Birch Gold makes it extremely easy to convert an existing IRA or 401k into a tax-sheltered IRA in physical gold.

00:11:06.000 Or you can even buy some gold to store in your home safe.

00:11:11.000 Just text my name, Don Jr., D-O-N-J-R, to the number 989898, and Birch Gold will send you a free info kit on gold.

00:11:37.000 Again, text my name, Don Jr., D-O-N-J-R, to the number 989898.

00:11:44.000 First, check out all the latest predictions on polymarket.

00:11:48.000 So if you follow politics, you know everyone's got an opinion.

00:11:51.000 But on polymarket, you actually get real odds on what's likely to happen.

00:11:56.000 Polymarket is a prediction market where people trade on real events, elections, debates, policy moves, and it doesn't stop at politics.

00:12:05.000 There are markets on the economies, tech, sports, pop culture, and so much more.

00:12:10.000 It's all live, it's transparent, and it gives you a real-time indicator of what people really think is going to happen.

00:12:18.000 So go give it a look at polymarket.com, check it out, and let me know what you think.

00:12:24.000 And now, let's get into all of the top headlines for the last couple of days.

00:12:30.000 And I want to start with what is one of the most important stories of the week.

00:12:36.000 And we now know it will never get the attention from the regime media.

00:12:41.000 I wonder why that is.

00:12:43.000 It's almost like they don't report on the things that actually should matter to Americans, the things that are actually attacking democracy, the things that are actually being used to subvert American citizens.

00:12:53.000 John Solomon, frequent guest of the show over at Just the News, obtained explosive documents showing that the FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigations, our highest federal law enforcement agency, conducted a tabletop exercise, that's what they call it, in the summer of 2020, months before the election, specifically gaming out what kind of chaos might happen if the presidential election was contested.

00:13:21.000 So just, I don't know, let that sink in for a second or two.

00:13:26.000 Think about that for a minute.

00:13:28.000 The FBI under Christopher Wright was sitting around in August of 2020, running scenarios about post-election violence, devising strategies like deploying undercover informants.

00:13:42.000 Huh, I wonder where they could have been on January 6th, and pursuing mass prosecutions for minor crimes.

00:13:50.000 And these are the exact same tactics, again, guys, they later used after January 6th.

00:13:57.000 They had the playbook written before the game even started.

00:14:01.000 I wonder again why they would have to do that.

00:14:04.000 I wonder.

00:14:06.000 FBI Director Kash Patel turned these long secret memos over to Congress just last week, and they paint an absolutely damning picture of the bureaucracy in the FBI, of the corruption, of all the things that we know that this was a plan, guys.

00:14:25.000 It was all a setup.

00:14:27.000 Does anyone actually think January 6th wasn't like the fail-safe?

00:14:32.000 You know, if the bomb's under the bench of the DNC and the RNC, you know, if they don't really get the attention that it needs, you know, maybe we could just get them to break into the Capitol building.

00:14:41.000 I wonder if we could insurrect.

00:14:44.000 The FBI's Boston field office led this exercise, and they recommended developing what they called a robust source base that would be embedded with potentially violent groups.

00:14:56.000 They recommended pursuing heavy-handed prosecutions for even minimal criminal activity as a deterrent.

00:15:05.000 Huh.

00:15:06.000 Huh.

00:15:08.000 Sounds very familiar.

00:15:12.000 And here's the kicker, guys.

00:15:13.000 These memos also warned that foreign enemies like Iran and China were likely to foment domestic violence on U.S. soil.

00:15:24.000 Remember, the left and the legacy media spent years telling you that any talk of Chinese or Iranian election interference was just a conspiracy theory, guys.

00:15:37.000 It's just a conspiracy theory, right?

00:15:40.000 It couldn't have happened.

00:15:41.000 Wow, it's not going to be Iran and China.

00:15:44.000 We're going to do it, maybe with their help, but we're going to do it ourselves.

00:15:47.000 You know, the FBI.

00:15:49.000 The FBI's own internal documents said otherwise.

00:15:53.000 They spent years telling you there were no federal assets on the ground on January 6th, in addition to all the other lies and misdirection that they gave us for months and even years after the fact.

00:16:07.000 Now, combine this new finding with what we learned late last year about the FBI's quote after-action report on January 6th regarding the deployment of plainclothes agents.

00:16:20.000 Watch this in case you don't remember.

00:16:22.000 He would not tell how many agents were sent to the Capitol once the violence started there and the riot began.

00:16:30.000 We got that answer because they did an after-action report at the FBI.

00:16:34.000 Kash Patel recently found that after action report, and it is damning.

00:16:39.000 There were 275 FBI agents, most in plain clothes, without any riot gear or protection, dispatched to the Capitol that day.

00:16:48.000 The reason there was an after-action review is that a lot of those agents felt like they were put in harm's way.

00:16:54.000 They didn't have gear.

00:16:55.000 They didn't have a way to identify themselves to the Capitol Police that they were cops.

00:16:59.000 If they had to draw their gun, they could have had a friendly fire incident.

00:17:03.000 And so that's an important fact.

00:17:05.000 It's something that Congress needed for oversight.

00:17:07.000 And Chris Ray's FBI kept it from.

00:17:09.000 But the more important issue, long term, to all my colleagues in the FBI who have tried to dispute that the FBI has a political bias problem.

00:17:18.000 This episode, this review, ended up exposing more than the fact that an incompetent FBI sent a lot of FBI agents to the Hill without gear and protections and then didn't want to admit that to Congress.

00:17:30.000 It uncorked a decade of frustration among scores of FBI agents at the Washington field office that their agency had become clearly politically biased.

00:17:42.000 Those aren't my words.

00:17:43.000 Those are their words.

00:17:45.000 The FBI was already game planning as early as September 2020 what an attack on the Capitol would be like and if it was possible.

00:17:55.000 Their own documents outline a plan to infiltrate online shed forums and build a network of confidential human sources before January 6th even happened.

00:18:06.000 They knew.

00:18:08.000 They prepared strategies.

00:18:10.000 And then when the day came, they didn't take adequate steps to protect the Capitol.

00:18:16.000 Again, it's almost like they wanted it to happen.

00:18:19.000 It's almost like, it's not almost like, there's literally no other plausible explanation.

00:18:26.000 They wanted it to happen.

00:18:28.000 And of course, what happened after?

00:18:30.000 They deployed roughly 274 agents, had about two dozen informants embedded in the crowd, and then they used the event to launch thousands of prosecutions, some of which amounted to nothing more than misdemeanors.

00:18:46.000 Yet it didn't stop them from doing anything.

00:18:48.000 I mean, misdemeanor, trespassing, jail for years, no due process, no rights.

00:18:54.000 We'll make sure you're tried not in front of a jury of your peers, in front of a jury of DC radical communists.

00:19:02.000 And they used those infiltrated prosecution numbers to justify a massive expansion of domestic surveillance on American citizens.

00:19:11.000 This, guys, isn't law enforcement.

00:19:14.000 That is institutional corruption.

00:19:18.000 Okay, that is disgusting.

00:19:20.000 You want to talk about protecting democracy?

00:19:22.000 They did exactly the opposite.

00:19:25.000 Now, speaking of things the previous administration buried, let's talk about another major story that for some reason is still not at all at the top of the news cycle.

00:19:35.000 So this is why I asked you guys to like, to share, to subscribe.

00:19:38.000 Hit it.

00:19:39.000 Get it out there.

00:19:40.000 The fact that people aren't talking about these things is not just an injustice.

00:19:44.000 It's depravity.

00:19:46.000 It's sick. 0.95

00:19:47.000 It's disgusting. 0.98

00:19:49.000 People need to know that.

00:19:50.000 So like, share, subscribe.

00:19:52.000 Get it out there.

00:19:53.000 Here it is.

00:19:54.000 The FBI and Las Vegas police raided a home in East Las Vegas on January 31st after getting a tip that an illegal biological laboratory was being operated out of a residential garage there.

00:20:11.000 And when they got inside, they found refrigerators filled with vials of unknown liquids, biohazard equipment, and over a thousand samples that have now been sent to the FBI lab at Quantico for testing.

00:20:26.000 And here's where it gets really scary.

00:20:28.000 The property is owned by a Chinese national who is already in federal custody.

00:20:34.000 Think about that, guys.

00:20:36.000 There's a Chinese biolab on U.S. soil.

00:20:39.000 I wonder what other biohazards China could have created in the last, I don't know, six or seven years. 1.00

00:20:49.000 This guy who's already in federal custody, he was arrested back in 2023 for running an illegal biolab in Reedley, California.

00:20:58.000 So he just moved over a state.

00:21:00.000 Okay, think about that.

00:21:01.000 He was already running an illegal biolab where authorities found thousands of vials labeled with things like HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, COVID, and even a freezer labeled Ebola.

00:21:18.000 Okay, Ebola, folks.

00:21:21.000 Chinese nationals, possibly creating, I don't know, replicating Ebola on U.S. soil. 1.00

00:21:30.000 He was arrested once already, and then they let him go, I guess, and he could just start again over, you know, the next state over.

00:21:35.000 Rinse and repeat.

00:21:38.000 There were nearly a thousand mice inside the lab, which were genetically engineered to mimic the human immune system.

00:21:46.000 Huh.

00:21:47.000 Why would you genetically change a mouse to imitate human immune systems in a Chinese biolab in America?

00:21:56.000 I wonder what you would do with that.

00:21:58.000 Huh.

00:22:00.000 If you think about this for a second, guys, this man has ties to the Chinese Communist Party, had a $330 million judgment against him in Canada for stealing intellectual property.

00:22:11.000 I wonder what intellectual property that could be.

00:22:13.000 Could it be, I don't know, biohazardous and was a fugitive who entered the United States illegally.

00:22:23.000 And yet, they got him in 2023, let him go, and he did it again, I guess.

00:22:28.000 And what did the Biden administration do about it?

00:22:30.000 They buried it.

00:22:32.000 Watch FBI Director Kash Patel on the CCP Biolabs and the Biden cover-up because you really have to see this stuff.

00:22:40.000 You don't have to be the director of the FBI to know the CCP is our number one adversary and is going to continually threaten our way of life.

00:22:46.000 What we did in the last year with the President Trump and the Attorney General of the Department of Justice is reprioritize our dynamic threat landscape going after and disrupting and criminal and looking after the criminal activity from the CCP.

00:22:59.000 We've arrested over 40% more individuals from the CCP for espionage alone last year, 40% increase in one year.

00:23:06.000 And as you guys brilliantly pointed out, that's because for four years, there was an open border policy that allowed them and other adversaries to infiltrate America, not just through cyber warfare, but personally come here, buy land, go to our universities, and inject themselves illegally, if not and improperly, into our way of life.

00:23:23.000 And this FBI has made it a priority to continuously get after it.

00:23:27.000 And you saw that when we raided the lab with the state authorities in Las Vegas.

00:23:30.000 And once those test results are back, we'll go public with what we found.

00:23:33.000 And we'll also be talking to our partners in Congress to say, hey, this intelligence that you were given and this summary you were given previously was dead wrong.

00:23:42.000 And I'm not going to mix any words about that.

00:23:44.000 So the Biden administration told the American public that the biolab had no connection to the CPCP.

00:23:50.000 None whatsoever.

00:23:51.000 I mean, you know, there wasn't like a CCP general in there, you know, so there's no connection.

00:23:56.000 I mean, the guy's a Chinese national.

00:23:58.000 He's done it over and over again.

00:24:00.000 You know, has liens against him for stealing intellectual property.

00:24:03.000 I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that was in the medical space up in Canada.

00:24:08.000 Got caught in California, released again during the Biden administration, and started up a shop again in Nevada.

00:24:16.000 But he had no connection to the CPCP.

00:24:19.000 Well, guys, turns out that was a lie.

00:24:23.000 And when Cash and the FBI discovered it, they took swift action to correct the intelligence.

00:24:30.000 And since then, there's been a 40% increase in Chinese espionage arrests in just the first year of the second Trump administration because this administration actually takes the Chinese Communist Party threat seriously.

00:24:47.000 But meanwhile, CNN ran a whole segment on the Vegas bio lab and somehow managed to leave out the Chinese Communist Party connection entirely.

00:24:56.000 I mean, I don't know.

00:24:58.000 This wasn't some redneck doing, you know, I don't know, let's see what we can do. 0.56

00:25:01.000 We'll kind of create a mutant squirrel.

00:25:04.000 No, no, no.

00:25:05.000 They left it out entirely.

00:25:06.000 Okay.

00:25:07.000 Given the panic that they created over COVID and where it came from and where it originated and what probably actually happened there, leaving that out, I don't know.

00:25:19.000 Seems like malpractice seems sick.

00:25:24.000 They covered it as just a man who had a biolab.

00:25:27.000 Oh, yeah, just a man who had a biolab.

00:25:29.000 Not a man who had a CCP-linked entity.

00:25:35.000 Not a man who had possibly Ebola, COVID, and other really hazardous things in his lab.

00:25:40.000 You know, just a man.

00:25:42.000 Just, you know, had he been wearing a MAGA hat, I bet you would have heard those details.

00:25:46.000 Just watch CNN in their own words.

00:25:49.000 This morning, federal authorities are investigating a suspected illegal bio lab found inside a Las Vegas home.

00:25:56.000 According to Las Vegas police, the home is owned by a man who was arrested in 2023 in connection to another biolab investigation in California.

00:26:04.000 During that previous investigation, authorities discovered materials possibly associated with several infectious diseases, including hepatitis, COVID, HIV, and malaria.

00:26:17.000 The nature of that earlier investor investigation raised significant concern for what we might encounter in this new case.

00:26:24.000 While it is unknown whether similar materials were present here at the Las Vegas residence, the possibility required us to proceed with extreme caution.

00:26:35.000 Officials in Las Vegas say they found refrigerators containing vials with unknown liquids.

00:26:41.000 That's not an oversight, guys.

00:26:43.000 That's editorial malpractice.

00:26:46.000 That should be illegal.

00:26:48.000 They should not be able to leave out these very important facts.

00:26:54.000 And these aren't conspiracy theories, guys.

00:26:56.000 Just like the COVID lab leak wasn't a conspiracy theory.

00:27:00.000 You got thrown in jail if you said it.

00:27:02.000 You lost your academic tenure if you did it.

00:27:04.000 You lost residency at a hospital if you said it.

00:27:06.000 But of course it was always there.

00:27:07.000 There was no other plausible explanation.

00:27:10.000 It happened in Wuhan at ground zero, right at the place where they studied the exact virus in questions in China.

00:27:20.000 These are national security threats that the Biden administration chose to ignore, just like they ignored the southern border and the threat of the cartels there, which my father secured on his first day in office.

00:27:34.000 But on Capitol Hill, guys, Democrats are still actively trying to undermine border security and public safety by trying to gut ICE. 0.90

00:27:44.000 They're not even using their usual euphemisms about reform, you know, the usual crap, right? 0.95

00:27:51.000 They just want to gut it and then abolish it entirely. 0.96

00:27:55.000 It's almost like they need open borders.

00:27:57.000 It's almost like they need that voter base.

00:27:59.000 They need millions of people to come here who get hooked on the government dole, who need them to give them things in exchange.

00:28:06.000 They'll give them votes and that's how they maintain power.

00:28:08.000 It's almost like, well, of course it's like that.

00:28:13.000 There's no other explanation.

00:28:15.000 We know that.

00:28:17.000 We've now seen it forever.

00:28:19.000 But as I always say, you don't have to take my word for it, guys.

00:28:23.000 They are saying it themselves.

00:28:25.000 They are saying the quiet parts out loud right now.

00:28:28.000 They've just given up on the pretense of like pretending.

00:28:31.000 They don't pretend at all anymore.

00:28:33.000 Check it out.

00:28:35.000 And so is abolishing ICE then just a talking point if that's not really in the demand?

00:28:41.000 No, look, I think it is about what we have the power to do.

00:28:44.000 And I have said for some time, going back to 2019, I've said we should dismantle DHS because DHS was only a creation after 9-11.

00:28:54.000 It never existed before that.

00:28:56.000 But guys, that's not all.

00:28:58.000 New York governor Kathy Hogel is taking it even further.

00:29:03.000 She wants to pass a new law to give illegals the right to sue ICE officers personally.

00:29:10.000 You know, that immunity thing that they got rid of for the cops in New York, which made so many of the cops in New York just quit because, you know, if they did their jobs, they didn't want to have to get sued personally and have no defense and lose their mortgage, their home, their wives, their lives, their families.

00:29:24.000 You know, it's almost like they're trying to destroy our nation from within.

00:29:29.000 Take a look.

00:29:31.000 We also are saying if ICE tramples on your constitutional rights, you should have a private right of action to sue them.

00:29:39.000 And we have cases all over the state of New York where those rights have been violated.

00:29:43.000 So we already proposed that, but I realized I want local police officers focused on local crimes.

00:29:50.000 To the extent that we have this bloated agency now, you heard $75, $85 billion agency that's dedicated to just taking people off our streets without any cause.

00:30:02.000 We want to make sure that our local police are not complicit in that, that our sheriffs are not housing people who are innocent of anything other than coming to this country in search of a better life like my grandparents did.

00:30:16.000 This is the priority of leadership in New York.

00:30:20.000 Side with illegals, side with lunatics who charge at cops with knives. 0.97

00:30:25.000 We covered that one last week. 0.98

00:30:26.000 Not the cop that got stabbed, but the guy that did the stabbing.

00:30:30.000 We're going to go check him out, make sure he's okay.

00:30:32.000 You know, because there's always an excuse for something, right? 1.00

00:30:34.000 He's not just an asshole. 1.00

00:30:36.000 There's an excuse for it. 1.00

00:30:38.000 He's, you know, there must be something wrong. 0.98

00:30:40.000 Yeah, he's a criminal. 0.96

00:30:40.000 Put him in jail. 0.96

00:30:42.000 Okay.

00:30:43.000 They side with career criminals who attack law enforcement.

00:30:48.000 That's today's Democrat Party.

00:30:50.000 And get this.

00:30:51.000 Remember how just a few weeks ago Democrats were screaming about the need for ICE agent to wear body cameras?

00:30:58.000 Well, now, after the Trump administration agreed to the measure, now, I don't know, guys, they're doing a little 180.

00:31:06.000 They're changing their tune and calling it a tool for mass surveillance.

00:31:12.000 Again, doing a complete 180.

00:31:14.000 So a couple of weeks ago, they're in Fayborough.

00:31:16.000 We say, okay, we believe our guys are doing the right thing.

00:31:19.000 Okay, there are obviously accidents that are going to happen, but we're more than happy to wear body cams because we're thinking we're doing the right thing.

00:31:24.000 No, Now it's a tool for mass surveillance.

00:31:29.000 Just look at this headline from Politico that reads, and I quote, ICE surveillance concerns shifts Democrats' demand for body cameras.

00:31:38.000 Are they worried that, I don't know, the more transparency we have and the more evidence that we have, the more it will likely dismantle every single fake news Democrat narrative that exists?

00:31:52.000 Almost feels like it has to be that, right?

00:31:55.000 We saw something similar happen with BLM.

00:31:58.000 Once police body cameras became the norm, it became harder for BLM to manufacture hoaxes like, you know, hands up, don't shoot.

00:32:06.000 They weren't able to change the narrative because you saw what these people did in real time.

00:32:12.000 We were more than happy to do that.

00:32:14.000 We're more than happy to have that transparency.

00:32:16.000 Let the people see what's actually going on.

00:32:19.000 But now that they realize that, they can't manipulate the narrative, you know, if there's video, well, let's change our minds.

00:32:28.000 What these bunny cameras often show is professional law enforcement officers doing their jobs while left-wing agitators create chaos, harass them, get in their face, commit violent acts, just like we saw in New York last week, where body cam footage showed the suspect wielding a knife against officers after repeatedly being told to stand down.

00:32:53.000 You know, if you don't have that video, guys, you know, in the news, just like eliminating the notion of the Chinese Communist Party in a hazardous biolab in Nevada, you know, if we leave out the knife part, oh yeah, a cop just shot a guy.

00:33:08.000 Oh, that's terrible.

00:33:09.000 Why would a cop just shoot a guy?

00:33:10.000 Oh, the cops are bad, obviously.

00:33:13.000 But make no mistake about the broader play here.

00:33:17.000 Democrats are using the DHS spending deadline to try to hamstring immigration enforcement.

00:33:25.000 And they're doing similar things in blue cities to make it harder to achieve basic safety and security for the American citizens who deserve it.

00:33:35.000 ICE officers are removing violent criminals from our streets, which, in the mind of Democrats, immediately makes them the bad guys.

00:33:44.000 Check it out.

00:33:46.000 They're friends and neighbors, sons, fathers.

00:33:49.000 They're little league coaches and veterans.

00:33:52.000 They're people who love this country.

00:33:55.000 These are immigration and customs enforcement officers.

00:33:58.000 They are removing violent criminals from our streets and neighborhoods.

00:34:02.000 It's dangerous and difficult work.

00:34:05.000 But ICE has one mission, to make America a safer place to live.

00:34:09.000 And that's what they're doing.

00:34:11.000 This is law enforcement.

00:34:13.000 This is ICE.

00:34:16.000 And while Democrats are busy having one tantrum after another, the Trump administration is actually building things that will benefit American families for generations.

00:34:28.000 Treasury Secretary Scott Besson sat down with CNBC to talk about the new Trump accounts, which directly put money in the pockets of young Americans.

00:34:39.000 Check out Scott Besson here.

00:34:41.000 enduring for decades to come.

00:34:43.000 But I think there's a chance that these Trump accounts may be his greatest legacy because I think that the children who are born, born last year over the next couple of years, in 18 years, those will start rolling off.

00:34:55.000 Or it may be that the individuals who get these accounts and everyone can create one for their family for children up to age 18.

00:35:07.000 Only these four years will be funded with the $1,000 seed from the government.

00:35:12.000 But as these accounts mature, when you're 18, they can be rolled into a retirement account.

00:35:18.000 So the full effect of these may not be felt on our national psyche for 20, 30, 40, even 60 years.

00:35:28.000 But I am convinced that this will be a real-time experiment in financial literacy and financial education, which we here at Treasury support every day.

00:35:38.000 Every American child born between 2025 and 2028 is eligible for a Trump account.

00:35:45.000 A $1,000 seed contribution from the Treasury Department that gets invested immediately into an index fund.

00:35:53.000 That single $1,000 deposit at birth could grow to roughly half a million dollars by retirement age.

00:36:01.000 And families can keep contributing on their own.

00:36:04.000 You can add into it even more.

00:36:06.000 You can open one for any child under 18.

00:36:10.000 Already, 600,000 families have signed up since the start of tax season.

00:36:16.000 Why don't you guys get up there and sign up yourselves?

00:36:18.000 Okay, if you have kids in that age range, get after it.

00:36:21.000 Set them up for the future.

00:36:21.000 Do it.

00:36:23.000 That's what this administration wants to do.

00:36:25.000 My father's a business guy.

00:36:27.000 He understands what it takes.

00:36:28.000 And doing this for that next generation is so fundamentally important.

00:36:33.000 Bessett called it the biggest merger in history between Main Street and Wall Street.

00:36:39.000 And we're seeing something similar with Trump RX, where most favored nations' pricing is bringing down drug costs so Americans aren't constantly getting ripped off while the rest of the world pays a fraction of the price.

00:36:52.000 The Europeans are going nuts. 1.00

00:36:54.000 They're saying, wait a minute, we used to get all that medication for free.

00:36:57.000 Yeah, subsidized by the American taxpayers.

00:37:00.000 Big Pharma in America would charge Americans thousands of dollars for relatively cheap prescriptions, then send the rest of the world the drugs that they need while bankrupting Americans.

00:37:09.000 Think about that.

00:37:10.000 Not anymore.

00:37:12.000 The Democrats want to redistribute your wealth.

00:37:15.000 My father wants to create wealth for you.

00:37:18.000 And these Trump accounts are going to change the financial trajectory of millions of American families.

00:37:25.000 That is a profound legacy.

00:37:27.000 And honestly, it's just another example of how using common sense gets things done.

00:37:35.000 But sadly, guys, common sense is anything but common, especially over in Europe, where we saw testimony last week on Capitol Hill from those actually being criminally prosecuted just for criticizing woke lunacy in places like the UK.

00:37:53.000 You know, England, some of these, like England, you know, you can't say anything anymore.

00:37:59.000 You can't talk about it.

00:38:00.000 You can't be critical of them, even on social media, even if you're a comedian.

00:38:04.000 And one of the star witnesses was Graham Lynham, an Irish comedy writer who had the audacity, guys, to say that biological sex is real.

00:38:16.000 I mean, I know ceremony, you don't have to say that anymore, but like, you know, I don't know, it's sort of been in the textbooks that way for like a couple hundred years until like three years ago.

00:38:27.000 That women, this is the other thing, I know, very radical, but he said it, that women deserve single sex bases. 1.00

00:38:36.000 Doesn't even feel like comedy.

00:38:37.000 It just feels like common sense.

00:38:39.000 And that children shouldn't undergo experimental medical procedures.

00:38:45.000 And for saying those things, he lost his career.

00:38:49.000 He was driven out of his home country.

00:38:51.000 And last September, when he flew from his new home in Arizona to London's Heathrow Airport, he was met by five heavily armed police officers who arrested him for social media posts, for literally posting opinions on social media that were critical of the madness that's happening right now in the UK.

00:39:15.000 Think about that.

00:39:15.000 A comedian returning home.

00:39:18.000 Not to provoke anything, not to agitate, not to do anything. 0.99

00:39:21.000 I mean, you know, I guess he'd be okay if he went there and started grooming gangs to rape young children all over the country. 0.98

00:39:27.000 That's fine. 0.98

00:39:28.000 I mean, that's, you know, cultural appropriation.

00:39:31.000 We can't, you know, can't get in the way of that, guys, right?

00:39:33.000 I mean, think about that.

00:39:35.000 Five armed guys to arrest him plainside when he was showing up there peacefully?

00:39:39.000 It's worth listening to his entire opening statement.

00:39:43.000 Check this out.

00:39:44.000 Thank you for this opportunity.

00:39:47.000 My name is Graeme Linehan.

00:39:49.000 I spent 30 years writing comedy for British television.

00:39:52.000 It was a career I loved, but it ended when I began noticing that women were losing their livelihoods, their social circles, and even their freedom for defending rights won over 100 years ago by the suffragette movement. 0.99

00:40:04.000 I looked into what these women were saying and could find nothing wrong with any of it.

00:40:08.000 They believed, as I do, that single-sex spaces are essential for women's privacy, dignity, and safety.

00:40:15.000 They believed that children should not undergo experimental medical treatment that ravages their health and shortens their lives.

00:40:21.000 They believed that women have a right to fair sport.

00:40:24.000 These were not extreme positions, but for holding them, I became the target of a series of harassment campaigns that cost me my career, my marriage, and eventually drove me from my homeland.

00:40:36.000 For a decade, the British police have harassed me for expressing views that the majority of the public share.

00:40:43.000 In 10 years, not one person, not the police who arrested me, not the colleagues who condemned me, not the friends who turned away, has told any of us what we did wrong.

00:40:53.000 Our accusers do not deal in arguments.

00:40:56.000 No one is able to point to the flaws in our analysis.

00:40:59.000 We have simply been punished for objecting to fashionable yet incoherent orthodoxies.

00:41:04.000 When I could no longer make a living writing comedy, I returned to journalism, which was my first profession.

00:41:10.000 On my substack, sorry, I interviewed cancelled women on my YouTube channel covering stories the BBC refused to touch.

00:41:19.000 On my substack, my colleague published a weekly roundup of outrages.

00:41:23.000 We called it the war on women. 1.00

00:41:25.000 We were never at a loss for stories.

00:41:27.000 This committee is here to discuss threats to free speech in Europe, but I briefly want to touch on the forms of quiet censorship that don't require state suppression.

00:41:38.000 For the state has learned to let others do its work.

00:41:41.000 When employers fire workers for protected speech, when banks close accounts, when publishers drop authors, when platforms suspend users, the government's hands stay clean.

00:41:53.000 The censorship happens.

00:41:54.000 The state didn't do it.

00:41:55.000 In Britain, we have discovered that you can have formal free speech and no free speech at all.

00:42:01.000 I want everyone to understand that gender ideology and free speech cannot coexist. 0.86

00:42:06.000 You can hear the lie in the very language.

00:42:08.000 Trans woman meaning man, trans man meaning woman, trans healthcare meaning the opposite of health care, trans rights meaning men's demands. 0.84

00:42:17.000 An ideology that tells lesbians they are bigoted for not accepting male partners is not progressive. 0.62

00:42:23.000 It is homophobic.

00:42:25.000 And I will bring this home to Washington for a second. 0.65

00:42:29.000 Right now, a man named Hobby Bingham, who calls himself Princess Zoe Andromeda Love, is a registered sex offender in this country. 0.96

00:42:37.000 He raped a 12-year-old girl. 0.94

00:42:39.000 He was transferred to the Washington Corrections Centre for Women, where he raped a developmentally disabled female inmate. 0.95

00:42:47.000 This is not happening in Britain. 0.51

00:42:49.000 This is happening here.

00:42:50.000 These are the policies we are being asked to accept.

00:42:53.000 And just as in the United Kingdom, those who refuse pay with their livelihoods, their reputations, their peace of mind.

00:43:00.000 Finally, I'm asking the committee to do three things.

00:43:03.000 First, use every diplomatic lever you have to pressure the British government to implement its own Supreme Court ruling.

00:43:10.000 Women just won a landmark case confirming that sex means biological sex. 0.99

00:43:15.000 The guidance to enforce it has been written, and the Minister for Women Inequalities has blocked it for months, calling it trans-exclusive.

00:43:22.000 If the British government can ignore its own Supreme Court to appease gender activists, so can yours. 0.78

00:43:28.000 Please make sure, make it clear that America is watching.

00:43:31.000 Second, put pressure on the Irish government to reopen a conversation it never had.

00:43:36.000 In 2015, while Irish people were celebrating their vote for marriage equality, the Gender Recognition Act was quietly passed.

00:43:44.000 No public consultation, no referendum, no women's rights organizations consulted.

00:43:49.000 The public did not know what they were signing up for.

00:43:52.000 They do now.

00:43:53.000 The consequences are visible across Irish life.

00:43:56.000 Men in women's prisons, men in women's sport, children taught lies in their schools.

00:44:01.000 Ireland is my country of birth.

00:44:03.000 Its women and girls deserve the debate that they were denied. 0.56

00:44:07.000 Third, recognize that free speech is not preserved simply by declining to arrest people.

00:44:12.000 People from all walks of life are being silenced by the institutions that license and employ them.

00:44:17.000 We need new whistleblower protections for the digital age.

00:44:21.000 If government will not defend dissenters from institutional retaliation and mob rule, then what is the First Amendment for?

00:44:28.000 That's not an abstract question.

00:44:30.000 The women who lost their careers, the children who lost their health, the athletes who lost fair competition, they did not have a voice in the decisions that failed them.

00:44:39.000 I am asking you to give them one.

00:44:41.000 Thank you.

00:44:43.000 Listen to what he said.

00:44:45.000 I want everyone to understand that gender ideology and free speech cannot coexist. 0.86

00:44:52.000 You can hear the lie in the very language.

00:44:55.000 That is one of the most concise and devastating takedowns of the entire gender ideology movement that I've ever heard.

00:45:04.000 And he delivered it under oath to the United States Congress after losing everything for simply saying it.

00:45:11.000 Lyam made a point that is critical for understanding the modern censorship machine.

00:45:18.000 When employers fire workers for protected speech, when banks close accounts, when publishers drop authors, when platforms suspend users, the government's hands stay clean.

00:45:31.000 The censorship happens.

00:45:33.000 The state didn't technically do it.

00:45:36.000 That is exactly the playbook that the left has been running in this country for years.

00:45:41.000 They don't even need to arrest you if they can get you fired, deplatformed, and financially destroyed.

00:45:47.000 They'll throw you in jail without actually having to sit in a cell.

00:45:51.000 You're just ruined for having the wrong opinion.

00:45:55.000 And it's why this administration has taken historic steps to fix it.

00:46:00.000 But the battle is still going.

00:46:02.000 This is why the First Amendment matters more now than ever before.

00:46:07.000 This is what our founding fathers intended with it.

00:46:10.000 This is why shows like this one actually matter.

00:46:15.000 Remember the pattern.

00:46:17.000 It's always the same.

00:46:19.000 Something is called a conspiracy until the evidence becomes undeniable.

00:46:23.000 And then it shifts to, well, it might have been happening, but it's not as bad as you think.

00:46:30.000 Then it becomes, you know, after it's very clear that it is as bad as you think and probably worse, then it becomes, well, yes, it's happening, but it's actually a good thing, guys.

00:46:38.000 It's good.

00:46:39.000 No, it's great.

00:46:40.000 And then it eventually morphs into censorship entirely.

00:46:43.000 So you don't talk about it at all.

00:46:45.000 You're forced into silence.

00:46:48.000 You're told to shut up and mind your own business or you're going to lose everything.

00:46:52.000 It's the cycle of pretty much all of the left's hoaxes.

00:46:56.000 And it's just one of the many reasons that legacy media finds itself suffering from a credibility crisis and is losing readers.

00:47:05.000 We see it with the Washington Post.

00:47:08.000 After last week's layoffs, the CEO of the paper stepped down this weekend.

00:47:14.000 Democracy dies in darkness.

00:47:16.000 You know, that's their whole, you know, masthead.

00:47:19.000 Democracy dies in darkness.

00:47:20.000 I don't know, guys.

00:47:21.000 It doesn't seem like they've been shedding light on pretty much anything other than Democrat conspiracy theories.

00:47:27.000 It turns out that Democracy Dies in Darkness isn't much of a business model.

00:47:32.000 And woke DEI reporting isn't actually all that popular.

00:47:37.000 And calling terrorists, you know, austere religious scholars isn't actually good reporting.

00:47:44.000 And we see it across the media where the so-called journalists are some of the least informed people out there.

00:47:51.000 Just look at this CNN segment on the 2020 census and how even the CNN host reacts to revelations of major errors hurting red states.

00:48:03.000 Of course, they only hurt red states, right?

00:48:05.000 It only goes one way.

00:48:06.000 Check this out.

00:48:07.000 One of the biggest things is it helps decide congressional maps.

00:48:11.000 Does this have everything to do with redistricting?

00:48:13.000 Well, it does.

00:48:13.000 In fact, we know the 2020 census, the errors were almost always to the detriment of red states.

00:48:18.000 Blue states like Rhode Island.

00:48:19.000 Do we know that?

00:48:20.000 We do know that the Census Bureau's own audit of its work has proven that blue states like Rhode Island were overcounted.

00:48:26.000 Rhode Island then doesn't lose a seat.

00:48:28.000 Red states like Alabama were undercounted.

00:48:31.000 This is just a fact.

00:48:32.000 It wasn't all red, blue, but it was disproportionately red and blue.

00:48:35.000 Amazing.

00:48:36.000 So the census is set up.

00:48:37.000 There's all sorts of errors.

00:48:38.000 They only benefit the blue states.

00:48:40.000 They always hurt the red states.

00:48:41.000 It's like, oh, we had no idea.

00:48:44.000 They probably didn't have an idea.

00:48:46.000 Now, had it been the other way, where it actually hurt blue states and helped red states, I have a feeling they'd know all about it.

00:48:52.000 They wouldn't find it on their own, but someone would tell them and they'd be shrieking like the jackals that they are.

00:48:58.000 Meanwhile, independent media shows like this one were growing.

00:49:03.000 We're reaching more people than ever before because we don't talk down to our audience.

00:49:08.000 We don't hide the ball.

00:49:10.000 The reckoning for legacy media is here, and I'm not going to shed a single tear for them.

00:49:17.000 More broadly, the contrast could also not be clearer.

00:49:22.000 One side buries the truth, gets rid of the details, while we are building the future.

00:49:28.000 The left can't win the argument, so they just try to turn up the volume with one lie, one hoax, or smear after another.

00:49:38.000 It's why we can't get complacent and we can't get comfortable because the stakes are just too high.
