00:06:28.000He's the guy that discovered the fraud in Minnesota.
00:06:31.000He went on to California where he discovered all the hospice care.
00:06:34.000But they want to pass this Stop Nick Shirley Act, a young, like 20 something year old kid that's just doing investigative journalism.
00:06:42.000They want to prevent him and prohibit him from reporting certain information about immigration service providers, even if it relates to fraud.
00:06:57.000But then again, It's just another day that ends in Y in California.
00:07:02.000But imagine they want to stop a journalist from doing journalism if it becomes something about illegal immigrants committing fraud in California.
00:07:11.000I mean, that is pretty classic California Democrats and basically the entire Democrat Party at this point.
00:07:22.000When our leadership is strong, we put Americans first and life gets better.
00:07:27.000When leadership is weak, when the left gets their way, Corruption spreads, enemies test us, criminals get protected, and ordinary Americans end up paying the price each and every time.

00:09:46.000And we're going to start with some straight talk on Iran, right?
00:09:50.000Straight, like get it, harmless straights, you know, a little pun there.
00:09:54.000Because the contrast could not be more obvious.
00:09:58.000For years under Biden, under Obama, under really the entire foreign policy class, America was managed by people who thought sounding cautious was the same thing as being smart.
00:10:13.000Everything had to be delicate, everything had to be multilateral.
00:10:17.000Everything had to be run through the maze of experts and committees and processes and stakeholders and all the other nonsense these people use when they're too afraid to actually act, right?
00:10:29.000If there's consensus by a bunch of people who haven't been right in 100 years, I mean, probably going to be right this time, right, guys?
00:10:40.000It got us more instability, more threats, more enemies who assumed the United States had lost the will to act like the dominant power on Earth.
00:10:50.000When your favorite president comes back in, and suddenly the message is very different.
00:12:05.000U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
00:12:08.000In effect, for nearly two hours now, a ship tracking firm reports 121 empty oil tankers are making their way to the United States of America.
00:12:20.00068 of those 121 vessels are very large crude carriers capable of carrying 2 million barrels apiece.
00:12:28.000President Trump has urged countries squeezed by Iran's disruption of the Strait of Hormuz to turn to American energy supplies instead.
00:12:36.000Well, it would appear perhaps they are obliging him.
00:12:42.000The president told Fox, quote, China can send their ships to the U.S., China can send their ships to Venezuela, while also saying that empty oil carrying ships from many nations are all headed to the U.S. to load up.
00:12:56.000That from the president of the United States.
00:13:02.000When the United States stops negotiating with itself, everybody else has to recalculate very quickly.
00:13:08.000And if you're following Polymarket, Let's just say that recalculation can happen quite fast.
00:13:14.000And it works precisely because bad actors understand force a lot better than they understand academic theories about de escalation frameworks.
00:13:29.000The second America actually exerts pressure, the same allies who constantly want our money, our military, our protection, our energy security, our intelligence, you know.
00:13:41.000Suddenly, they all start acting like they need to hold 16 meetings before they can even clear their throats.
00:13:49.000Here's my father with a few sharp words for leadership in Spain.
00:14:12.000protected they don't want to pay their fair share and they've been that way for many years Remember Spain?
00:14:20.000You know, they wouldn't let us land on the NATO runways there.
00:14:23.000Some of these countries wouldn't even let us use their airspace to fly over, right?
00:14:26.000But then when, you know, big bad Russia may be a threat to them thousands of miles away, you know, they want our money, lots of it, hundreds of billions of dollars.
00:16:54.000And it's brutal because it confirms exactly what conservatives have been saying for years.
00:16:59.000The people who spent the last decade screaming about election integrity and foreign interference and Russia, Russia, Russia, you name it, may have had pretty serious foreign money problems sitting inside their own fundraising apparatus.
00:17:17.000And this is not some fringe story anymore, guys.
00:17:20.000Now, for a quick refresher, As we told you a few weeks ago, the New York Times itself reported that ActBlue's own lawyers warned that the platform, that it may have misled Congress, just little white lies about the safeguards it used to prevent foreign donations.
00:17:39.000Their own lawyers warning that there could be criminal exposure here.
00:18:49.000They're not worried about all of these things.
00:18:50.000They're only worried about getting caught because they want to keep perpetuating that.
00:18:54.000It's why they've managed to keep as much power as they've had for so long, it's why they've raised as much money as they've had.
00:19:00.000And now, House Republicans say ActBlue is deliberately withholding evidence to hinder their investigation.
00:19:09.000The more sunlight on this, the more you start to understand why Democrats panic every time someone proposes even the most basic election protections, right?
00:19:22.000Why is, I don't know, voter ID so popular with Americans, yet Democrats don't want to do it?
00:19:27.000They want to make sure we don't do that.
00:19:29.000It's Jim Crow 2.0, all the usual bullshit, right?
00:21:24.000The bill would prohibit journalists or anyone from posting certain identifying information about providers of immigration related services, even if it's related to fraud.
00:21:35.000California Democrats are literally taking the side of the fraudsters.
00:21:40.000They want to protect the fraudsters, not the journalists that actually expose it.
00:21:44.000You're talking about billions of dollars here.
00:21:46.000You're talking about draining American taxpayer dollars, subsidizing criminals, and they want to make sure that no one does that.
00:21:55.000So, Nick went to Sacramento and asked a couple of lawmakers what's going on.
00:22:18.000So, Mia Bonta, her husband's attorney general of California, and it was only until I exposed her.
00:22:27.000Fraud that they actually cracked down on the fraud and made some arrests here, especially with the hospices.
00:22:32.000And do you know that if this bill were to pass, it'd make it illegal for someone to go after fraud, especially if it's based off of immigrants, for instance, Armenians in California?
00:22:44.000No, no, I think that that's a misinterpretation of the bill, but I'm happy to talk with you more about it.
00:22:49.000And I don't know that investigations into fraud are something that's been happening for a very long time.
00:22:56.000The Attorney General handles those cases.
00:24:27.000They want to stop him looking into any of these things because once you realize that it's happening in Medicaid, it's probably happening in Medicare.
00:24:34.000Once you realize it's happening in Medicare, it's probably happening across the entire board.
00:25:10.000A DHS employee was just murdered in cold blood by a foreigner with prior convictions who was naturalized under Joe Biden and his administration.
00:25:22.000A DHS employee murdered, two other victims attacked, and authorities say this suspect was a naturalized citizen from the UK.
00:25:32.000Guys, you already know the script from the left after a story like this.
00:26:03.000Because this is what progressive governance actually looks like in practice endless loopholes, no accountability, no urgency, no willingness to enforce the law.
00:26:14.000And then, when innocent people die, they act offended that anyone would point back to the policies that made it possible.
00:26:23.000You do not get to separate the blood from the far left bloated bureaucracy.
00:26:32.000If you create a system that treats enforcement like cruelty, If you create a culture that treats boundaries like oppression, if you keep protecting the people who should have never been protected in the first place, then these outcomes are entirely on you.
00:27:03.000But inside the modern Democrat political machine, it basically is.
00:27:08.000Now, speaking of people who don't know what's truth from reality, you have got to see what happened this weekend at the Michigan Democratic Convention.
00:27:19.000For years, for years, and every day since, the left has told you that asking for an ID to vote is racist.
00:27:27.000Remember, it's Jim Crow 2.0, it's some kind of white supremacist plot to keep minorities out of the ballot box.
00:28:00.000And they decide to actually, I don't know, take the advice of their activist wing.
00:28:05.000And not check IDs at the door when delegates show up to register.
00:28:10.000Well, take a look at how one of their own handled it.
00:28:16.000PM at the Michigan Democratic Convention primary, where we've been waiting to find out if our first set of votes have even been tabulated and counted and if we need to vote a second time because this is also kind of like rank my vote out here, even though a lot of the candidates don't even want that.
00:28:31.000I just found out that about 10 20 minutes ago, we just got the last vote in.
00:28:35.000Voting began at 5 30 when it was supposed.
00:28:38.000What's wild is many people have been here since 7 a.m.
00:28:42.000I arrived at 1 p.m. and I'm tapping out, even though I would like to make sure I can continue voting for my Secretary of State choice and my Attorney General choice.
00:28:52.000This is the most land owning 1800s white man bullshit privilege I've seen in the Democracy Power.
00:29:00.000And apparently, Curtis Pirtle, the chair of the Democratic Party here in Michigan, ran on changing this, ran on moving the primary speed more accessible.
00:29:09.000To possibly having satellite locations or mail in voting or even online voting because we voted mobily.
00:29:17.000This whole fucking thing, we just showed up, we had to be in person.
00:29:21.000And here's another thing they didn't even ask for my ID.
00:29:24.000I did not even have my state ID asked for when I was registering as a delegate to vote.
00:29:31.000So, why in the fuck am I spending my entire evening in Detroit, my entire Sunday in Detroit, when I could have been voting from home or in a satellite location?
00:29:43.000Or with mail in voting, or online, or right by choice.
00:29:48.000What the hell is going on with Michigan democracy?
00:29:51.000Because, like, who wants to spend 12 plus hours in a convention center just to make their voice heard?
00:30:01.000Well, sorry for the language in that one, but I think we have to point out.
00:30:05.000I mean, this person said, and I quote, they didn't even ask for my ID.
00:30:10.000I mean, let that sink in for one second.
00:30:13.000She is at a Democratic Party convention in a room full of Democratic delegates complaining that her own party did not ask her for identification.
00:30:48.000This is the moment the entire voter ID lie collapses on live video.
00:30:53.000Because apparently, when it's your convention, when it's your delegate credentials, when it's your seat at the table, suddenly ID is not Jim Crow 2.0.
00:31:42.000They do this for us, and yet we still can't get it through.
00:31:46.000And there's plenty of weak Republicans that won't push it either.
00:31:50.000And speaking of masks slipping, let's talk about something you may not have heard about.
00:31:56.000Something the regime media is absolutely not going to cover, certainly not in a way that it gets deserved.
00:32:04.000FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson announced.
00:32:07.000That his agency is cracking down on the censorship cartel, the collusion between advertisers, platforms, and left wing smear artists that has been basically choking conservative speech on the internet for decades now, certainly years, certainly since we got into politics.
00:32:26.000Saying, When that collusion also prevents the spread of ideas they don't like, it undermines our basic rights as citizens to speak and be heard.
00:32:40.000Took monumental steps to promote economic competition and stop collusive censorship.
00:32:47.000The issue is not just that, I don't know, one company moderated contents on its own.
00:32:54.000The issue is whether a network of powerful institutions effectively worked together to punish platforms, shows, outlets, or creators unless they, I don't know, suppressed certain political views, perhaps.
00:33:08.000I wonder if we've seen this play out in real life.
00:33:11.000I've been talking about it for a decade.
00:33:13.000A cartel of corporations got together and decided which ideas Americans were allowed to hear.
00:33:19.000And the federal government is now going to do something about it.
00:33:24.000Think about what that actually means for a second, guys.
00:33:27.000For years, we watched it happen in real time.
00:33:31.000Conservative accounts throttled, conservative advertisers blacklisted, conservative journalists demonetized, just regular people posting, just totally canceled.
00:34:10.000And by the way, while the left is obsessed with finding new ways to game the system, the Trump administration is doing something normal countries used to do trying to build things again and actually put more money in the pockets of working people.
00:34:29.000More and more made in America, less red tape, less bureaucracy, less regulation.
00:34:37.000In other words, make it easier to hire, easier to expand, easier to finance, easier to build, and more profitable to build here than to ship jobs to China.
00:35:06.000Conditions in labor trends were also part of a recent exchange at the White House.
00:35:10.000The administration was asked about hiring, production, and overall work.
00:35:15.000The small business administrator, Kelly Leffler, says some manufacturers are seeing increased activity, pointing to factories expanding shifts as production picks up.
00:35:26.000A great example are the factories that we see coming back thanks to 100% Made in America, expensing.
00:35:32.000Cusa Steel is a great example in Rome, Georgia, where the owner was.
00:35:37.000Down to running one shift one day a week.
00:35:40.000He's up to two or three shifts five or six days a week.
00:35:43.000So, thanks to reindustrializing this nation through our small manufacturing base, which most manufacturers in America meet the small business definition 98% of them, we're seeing more shifts taking place, more opportunities for overtime, and then more willingness of workers to take on overtime shifts because in the past they were penalized by the tax system for taking on overtime.
00:36:05.000Leffler also says overall, small business optimism has remained above its long term average under the current administration.
00:36:15.000You mean if you stop punishing production, stop suffocating small businesses, and actually reward people for making things in the United States, American industry might come back to life.
00:36:44.000Not DEI and ESG scorecards, not climate paperwork stacked to the ceiling, actual policy that says build it here, hire here, grow here, win here.
00:37:15.000And when they say the law is not optional.
00:37:20.000Because the Department of Transportation is yanking $73 million from New York over commercial driver license, getting vetting failures, and basically allowing illegals to take over the system and make roads less safe.
00:37:36.000And the message from the administration is brutally simple We gave you four months to comply, you refused.
00:37:45.000And if you keep refusing, you could lose the ability to issue CDLs altogether.
00:37:50.000Those are commercial driver's licenses.
00:37:52.000If you keep issuing them to people who can't read, you know, like the signs on a road, you know, you keep giving it to people who may not even have driver's licenses or shouldn't get CDLs to begin with, you know, maybe you don't get your federal funding anymore.
00:38:15.000We're talking about commercial driver's licenses, the people operating massive vehicles, 18 wheelers and stuff on public roads.
00:38:24.000And New York still treated basic legal compliance like it was some sort of, I don't know, maybe like suggestion.
00:38:30.000You know, we're not going to really listen to that.
00:38:33.000This is the same blue state disease you see everywhere ideology first, the law second, if ever, public safety somewhere off in the distance.
00:38:44.000And the answer is not another warning letter, not another blue ribbon commission, not another excuse, it's consequences.
00:39:45.000As you know, commercial drivers don't stay in New York, they drive across the country.
00:39:49.000And so you have a state with really good rules, say Oklahoma, these drivers from New York drive trucks through Oklahoma and every other state.
00:41:13.000We've given it to governors and state DOTs, and these are the bad decisions that some of them are making.
00:41:20.000You know, guys, because for all the garbage we put up with in politics, we're now seeing example after example of how government can do something very simple and very decent and very direct on issue after issue.
00:41:33.000For example, for years, veterans dealing with PTSD, post traumatic stress disorder, and traumatic brain injuries have been told to wait.
00:41:42.000You know, wait for the system, wait for another commission.
00:41:46.000And that is exactly how Washington usually handles hard problems.
00:41:53.000Maybe after I retire, someone else can deal with the problem.
00:41:55.000But now we're actually seeing some real progress.
00:41:58.000Here's Joe Rogan in the White House over the weekend breaking some really big news.
00:42:04.000I want to say that I'm here because of the man to my left.
00:42:07.000Brian Hubbard and former Texas Governor Rick Perry came on my podcast.
00:42:11.000They told me how impactful this medicine is.
00:42:16.000And having that conversation with them, millions of people got a chance to hear their story, hear the stories of all the different people that have had.
00:42:41.000I want to assure you that my presence here is the most concrete affirmation that God.
00:42:48.000So just look at the contrast one more time strength abroad, pressure on corruption, enforcement at home, slashing red tape, and putting Americans first.
00:42:57.000And actual urgency for the people who served this great nation.
00:43:19.000Now, for all of you watching, let's tie this all together.
00:43:22.000Whether we're talking about Iran, whether we're talking about Act Blue or Sanctuary Sitteries, you know, whatever the topic is, the underlying issue is the same.
00:43:31.000We need leaders willing to protect American citizens first.
00:43:35.000We need a government that believes strength deters evil.
00:43:40.000We must have the courage to enforce our laws, to expose corruption, and to stop pretending that chaos is compassion.
00:43:49.000Because the left's model is clear now protect the machine, protect the bureaucracy, protect the loopholes, and protect the narrative ultimately.
00:43:59.000But what Team Trump is showing right now is something very different.
00:44:03.000Strength versus weakness, citizens versus criminals, truth versus propaganda, and results versus excuses.
00:45:27.000And it's a shame because, like, listen, I'm from New York my whole life.
00:45:30.000I lived there until like six years ago, whatever it was.
00:45:33.000You know, I came down to Florida as a political refugee from the People's Republic of New York.
00:45:37.000But, like, it's funny when I go upstate, when I go to these places that I live my whole life, I mean, people there are normal, but they're just outvoted by all of the insanity in the cities.
00:45:54.000So, you have plenty of conservative people upstate New York that would love to have some common sense in place, but it doesn't seem to work that way because they're dominated by the big cities where, again, the handouts go a long way.
00:47:45.000But if I get a big trip planned, I'll let you know.
00:47:48.000If you want, would you ever want me to do an entire show like there, videoing it from there?
00:47:52.000I think I got a couple this summer later on that I'm going to go to.
00:47:55.000Won't talk about details or words yet because it's just, you know, these days, probably don't want to give too many people information about where I'm going to be.
00:48:03.000It's kind of a crazy world if you haven't noticed.
00:48:25.000Yeah, we, okay, up at my farm in Pennsylvania, we have like a bowling ball mortar.
00:48:30.000It's basically an oxyacetylene tank that we sawed off the end and drilled a hole in the bottom.
00:48:35.000And, you know, if you angle that right and fill it with, you know, like a, it's called like a spray paint can, like a capful from a spray paint cap of black powder, you could shoot a bowling ball really, really, really far.
00:48:47.000Just hope it doesn't blow up in your face.
00:48:49.000But, When you shoot a heavy bowling ball, man, 2,000 yards, it's pretty amazing and pretty fun.
00:49:29.000And, you know, that's always a lot of fun.
00:49:32.000So yeah, I haven't done as many big hunting trips just because it's been too hectic, but I can get up to my farm relatively quickly from here.
00:49:38.000So we've spent a lot of weekends out there.
00:49:40.000And so if I'm up there, I'm definitely always shooting.
00:51:44.000Uh, certainly not anymore, uh, or as of late, but I think we're trying to bring that around and try to create fairness.
00:51:49.000Certainly, you saw a lot of that in the military, and I think Pete Hegseth and others there, you know, are getting.
00:51:54.000Rid of all of that and just trying to have a meritocracy where people get promoted because they actually deserve to get promoted because they're better at something than someone else, not because they're also gay or also queer or whatever the hell else, whatever the things that made you above the law that made you just free from any kind of reproach.
00:52:20.000You could just do whatever you wanted.
00:53:18.000I don't necessarily always watch too much of it.
00:53:20.000I rather sort of in whatever free time I have, which is not often that much these days, you know, I rather be out hunting, fishing, shooting, whatever it may be.
00:55:04.000I don't even, yeah, listen, I'm sure they're not cheap, you know, but I think there's also a component of it, you know, being on the White House lawn.
00:55:14.000I mean, it's, you know, it's a different kind of show.
00:55:16.000It's not something you can do every day.
00:55:19.000And it's not, honestly, it's probably something that may never happen again.
00:57:13.000Okay, because now everyone's asking that same question, so I don't know if it's trolls or whatever, but yeah, I don't know who it is, so probably not, but you know.
00:58:53.000If you want to learn about the Save America Act, he's the guy leading the charge in the United States Senate for that.
00:59:00.000Oh, yeah, we had Rick Scott also talking about that, senator from Florida, former governor of Florida, talking about that one as well.
00:59:06.000So there's literally two entire shows dedicated to the Save America Act.
00:59:11.000Obviously, guys, that's for those of you who don't know, that's the thing that would require you to be an American citizen to vote, that you have to prove that you're an American citizen to register to vote and then have like legitimate ID to be able to vote.
01:01:40.000And, you know, if it works for you, especially if you have like cause, you have some sort of trauma that you got to deal with, I've heard incredible things from a lot of people.
01:01:50.000I've also seen people like, you know, when the big ayahuasca trend was heading on, I was speaking to a friend of mine who's like a big corporate recruiter for like, You know, Fortune 500 companies.
01:02:01.000And he was telling me, he was like, they've lost like 12, like high functioning, high performing, like CEOs who went on like the ayahuasca, like trend.
01:02:11.000And they went on a, you know, ayahuasca thing for two weeks and they came back and literally were just like, yeah, I'm just not interested in work anymore.
01:02:17.000I mean, these are like super high functioning people, just driven, motivated, like go to people who just lost all interest whatsoever.
01:02:27.000Maybe, maybe they weren't loving their jobs or whatever it was, but, you know, they were people who were getting things done and they just came back and they're like, Yeah, just gonna go live in a tent for a couple of years and see what happens.
01:02:35.000And frankly, that's something I may do on my own.
01:02:37.000I don't think I need ayahuasca to do that.
01:02:39.000That's sort of what I love to do anyway.
01:02:46.000That's the outdoor, you know, it's my little, you know, passion project.
01:02:50.000One of the sort of many businesses I sort of do, and it's fun and takes up a lot of time for what I get out of it, but it's sort of cool to be able to pass on sort of that adventure lifestyle.
01:03:01.000It's sort of an unapologetic adventure lifestyle.
01:03:04.000It's, you know, hunting, fishing, off-roading, all this kind of stuff, shooting magazine.
01:03:08.000So if you haven't checked it out, go check out fieldethos.com.
01:03:11.000You know, just, if you want, just download the email newsletter.
01:03:14.000I think you'll appreciate the writing.
01:03:54.000Yeah, get a bunch of activist liberal judges on the Supreme Court and there will be no Second Amendment, I can assure you.
01:04:00.000So, you know, we have to stay involved in all of that.
01:04:05.000Maybe you guys set up at Hunt Expo in Salt Lake next year.
01:04:08.000I've been to the Hunt Expo in Salt Lake a bunch of times.
01:04:11.000We haven't gone in a little while because we end up doing, you know, shot show for the shooting side of things.
01:04:17.000We've done, Dallas Safari Club and Safari Club International, you know, on the hunting side, starting to get more in the fishing stuff.
01:04:26.000And then we got it, we do a lot on the other, you know, whether it's spearfishing or overlanding or off roading and dirt biking and all these kinds of things.
01:04:32.000So we got to start doing some of these things.
01:04:34.000The problem is, like, I can't go to every one of the trade shows because it feels like there's one every weekend all spring.
01:04:39.000And, you know, that, you know, it doesn't work.
01:04:43.000So we just got to sort of pick and choose.
01:04:45.000But yeah, maybe that, you know, that's a great show, actually.
01:06:32.000I mean, if you look at the genesis of it, obviously it was designed to protect the Republic and from tyrannical governments that you see in places like, I don't know, California.
01:06:48.000You know the guy that consulted on the Dune movies, Dunn?
01:07:44.000All right, well, guys, it's a little past six, so we've been going for a little over an hour.
01:07:48.000I think I'm going to go get dinner, and I look forward to seeing you all on Thursday.
01:07:54.000Maybe we'll have some, do a little bit more QA.
01:07:59.000I will try to check out the Dune books.
01:08:00.000I probably won't be able to read it by Thursday, but I'll definitely think about getting there or at least watch the original movie and kind of get caught up with what's going on.
01:08:12.000So, with that, guys, I just want to thank you all so much for tuning in.
