00:07:13.000 Hey guys, welcome to another huge episode of Trigger.

00:07:16.000 And hope everyone's doing well.

00:07:18.000 Big show for you today.

00:07:20.000 Because once again, once again, the regime media is doing what it always does, ignoring the wins.

00:07:28.000 Hiding the hypocrisy and protecting some of the sleaziest people in American politics.

00:07:33.000 Because while the media is still obsessed with whatever fake news narrative they can cook up from one more anti Trump news cycle to another, the actual scorecard looks pretty darn good for America.

00:07:47.000 Strategically, we're stronger.

00:07:49.000 Economically, confidence is back.

00:07:52.000 At the border, order is back.

00:07:55.000 And politically, some of these Democrats are getting exposed in a way that is way.

00:08:01.000 Past due. 0.95

00:08:03.000 And yes, we're going to get into Eric Swalwell because if there's ever been a guy who deserved to be dog walked on his own hypocrisy and corruption, it is him.

00:08:14.000 We're going to talk about the border numbers that should have been front page news everywhere. 0.93

00:08:19.000 And of course, more absolute insanity and fraud in the state of California.

00:08:26.000 Hard to believe.

00:08:26.000 There's more, guys.

00:08:27.000 There's more.

00:08:28.000 They just are probably scratching the surface, and what they've found so far is already insane.

00:09:22.000 Gold just surged past $5,000 an ounce.

00:09:26.000 Silver blew past $100.

00:09:28.000 And the US just added silver to the critical mineral list.

00:09:32.000 Meaning, it's now considered crucial for American security and economic survival.

00:09:36.000 This isn't speculation.

00:09:38.000 This is real.

00:09:39.000 That's why I've renewed my partnership with the number one rated gold company, Gold Co.

00:09:45.000 A plus rated by the BBB, the Better Business Bureau.

00:10:17.000 What do you have to lose?

00:10:19.000 Let's get into all of the top headlines.

00:10:22.000 I want to start in Iran because this is one of those stories where if you really want to learn what's going on, you've got to block out all of the noise.

00:10:31.000 And God knows there is a lot of noise.

00:10:35.000 But you've got to block it out and look at the details of what's really going on.

00:10:40.000 Your favorite president is reestablishing American control over the strategic lanes that matter across the globe.

00:10:47.000 And the people who spent years saying America's in decline and yada, yada, yada.

00:10:52.000 Suddenly, we have nothing to say about it.

00:10:56.000 Because if you look at the map and the data, more and more key trade routes across the world are now controlled by the United States.

00:11:05.000 Remember how we've talked about supply chain issues and all these kinds of things?

00:11:08.000 Well, we're fixing those problems by controlling those routes.

00:11:11.000 Check this out. 0.72

00:11:13.000 With our alliances with the Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia, and our control of the Strait of Hormuz against Iran, the United States now controls every access point that China has to get to.

00:11:26.000 The other side of Southeast Asia to get to India, to get to Africa, and to get to Europe.

00:11:31.000 Every trade route China needs to go west is now controlled by the United States of America.

00:11:38.000 Donald Trump did that.

00:11:39.000 Pete Hext has negotiated the deal with Indonesia.

00:11:41.000 Look, ladies and gentlemen, you're not going to hear this on ABC, CBS, NBC, probably not CNN, and certainly not MS Now.

00:11:48.000 You're not going to hear about this much in the New York Times or USA Today or any of the other major newspapers in this country.

00:11:54.000 The Trump administration has just put itself in a position.

00:11:58.000 To have the United States control every access point China has for trading west, west to Europe, west to Africa, west to India, west to other parts of Southeast Asia.

00:12:09.000 The United States military now controls those routes.

00:12:13.000 Have you heard about that in the press?

00:12:15.000 I bet you have it. 1.00

00:12:16.000 We have pushed China out of the Western Hemisphere. 1.00

00:12:19.000 Think about that for a second.

00:12:21.000 For years, we were told that China was 10 feet tall and that America was fading, that the global order was slipping away from us, and that we, I don't know, just.

00:12:31.000 Had to get used to it, just deal with it.

00:12:34.000 No, we don't.

00:12:36.000 We didn't have to get used to it.

00:12:38.000 We had to get serious again.

00:12:41.000 And that's the difference between strength and weakness.

00:12:44.000 That's the difference between having adults in charge and having these empty suit globalist bureaucrat clowns who think issuing a white paper is the same thing as projecting power and utilizing the power that you have.

00:12:59.000 Because when America actually decides to enforce its interests, when America acts like the dominant power that it is, the maps change very, very quickly.

00:13:10.000 And by the way, this isn't happening in some vacuum, it's showing up in markets, in confidence indexes, in investment as well.

00:13:19.000 Check this out.

00:13:21.000 On the campaign trail in 2024, President Trump looked voters in the eye and promised them he would sign the largest tax cuts in the history of our country.

00:13:30.000 And on Independence Day last year, President Trump and congressional Republicans delivered, passing the largest tax cut in history for working and middle class Americans, including no tax on tips, overtime, and Social Security.

00:13:45.000 They also passed unprecedented tax relief for small businesses, farmers, workers, and families.

00:13:51.000 With Tax Day officially here, the numbers prove these tax cuts have been nothing short of extraordinary.

00:13:57.000 More than 53 million filers claimed at least one of President Trump's signature new tax cuts.

00:14:04.000 The average refund this filing season is more than $3,400.

00:14:09.000 The Trump administration has issued more refunds in larger refunds than in any year of the history of our country.

00:14:16.000 And I will allow Secretary Besant to break down the numbers in greater detail.

00:14:21.000 President Trump and Republicans in Congress have always believed that the American people know how to spend their money better than the government does.

00:14:28.000 But what the American people must not forget is that every single Democrat in Congress voted against these tax refunds.

00:14:36.000 the media has largely omitted this fact and other critical details in their stories covering the benefits of the trump tax cuts.

00:14:43.000 if the democrats in congress had gotten their way and blocked president trump's historic legislation americans would have faced the largest tax hike in history nearly four trillion dollars.

00:14:55.000 the average taxpayer would have seen a twenty two increase in their tax rates.

00:15:01.000 democrats in congress have proven over and over again that they are the affordability frauds who believe the government should keep more of the american people's hard earned money.

00:15:10.000 This president and Republicans in Congress fundamentally believe that Americans deserve to keep more of their hard earned paychecks.

00:15:17.000 It's a clear contrast for American families to keep in mind.

00:15:22.000 The SP 500 just closed above 7,000.

00:15:27.000 Confidence is back.

00:15:28.000 That's huge for your 401k and your savings and for America.

00:15:32.000 Capital moves when people believe the country is being run by serious people. 0.90

00:15:37.000 Businesses invest when they believe the rules are common sense and America is no longer being managed by ideologues and bureaucrats, by lunatics. 0.97

00:15:48.000 That matters, guys.

00:15:50.000 And it matters that the same people who told you tariffs would destroy the economy, it would destroy energy dominance, that would never come back.

00:15:59.000 And that American leverage was somehow a relic of the past, are wrong again.

00:16:05.000 Wrong about growth, wrong about markets, and wrong about power.

00:16:10.000 Honestly, they're wrong about basically everything.

00:16:14.000 Here's Secretary Wright appearing before Congress this week with the latest numbers.

00:16:20.000 Under President Trump's leadership, we have put the department back on mission, delivering affordable, reliable, and secure energy to the American people.

00:16:29.000 Let me highlight what this looks like.

00:16:31.000 We have taken decisive steps to restore grid reliability.

00:16:36.000 Using emergency authorities under Section 202 of the Federal Power Act, we kept critical baseload generation online after DOE analysis warned outage risk could increase by up to 100 fold by 2030 due to supply shortfalls if we had continued on the previous trajectory.

00:16:57.000 This action and the market response to our actions.

00:17:01.000 preserved 17 gigawatts of critical dispatchable generation for the American people.

00:17:07.000 Hundreds of American lives were saved by these actions during Winter Storm Fern.

00:17:13.000 Historic coal drove record heating and electricity demand.

00:17:17.000 Dispatchable energy, natural gas, coal, hydro, and nuclear were the MVPs of the grid.

00:17:24.000 In New England, at peak demand, which is what matters with an electricity grid, hydrocarbons, hydro, and nuclear power provided 95% of the electricity.

00:17:35.000 Wind, solar, and batteries provided 2%, far less than the 3% that was derived from burning wood and trash.

00:17:44.000 The lesson when reliability is on the line, dispatchable energy shows up.

00:17:50.000 We work to establish American energy leadership globally.

00:17:55.000 Since President Trump ended the previous administration's reckless LNG export approval ban, the department has approved more than 19 billion cubic feet a day.

00:18:06.000 This is what competence looks like, guys.

00:18:09.000 This is what happens when you stop apologizing for American energy, stop kneecapping your own producers, and stop treating normal economic growth like some sort of moral crime.

00:18:20.000 And of course, the Democrats would rather tax, regulate, and lecture this country into a recession than ever admit that prosperity actually comes from production.

00:18:33.000 But don't take my word for it.

00:18:35.000 Here are just a few of the facts on what Democrats want for your wallet.

00:18:41.000 President Trump and Republicans in Congress have always believed that the American people know how to spend their money better than the government does.

00:18:49.000 But what the American people must not forget is that every single Democrat in Congress.

00:18:54.000 Voted against these tax refunds.

00:18:56.000 The media has largely omitted this fact and other critical details in their stories covering the benefits of the Trump tax cuts.

00:19:04.000 If the Democrats in Congress had gotten their way and blocked President Trump's historic legislation, Americans would have faced the largest tax hike in history nearly $4 trillion.

00:19:15.000 The average taxpayer would have seen a 22% increase in their tax rates.

00:19:21.000 Democrats in Congress have proven over and over again that they are the affordability frauds.

00:19:26.000 Who believe the government should keep more of the American people's hard earned money?

00:19:30.000 This president and Republicans in Congress fundamentally believe that Americans deserve to keep more of their hard earned paychecks.

00:19:38.000 It's a clear contrast for American families to keep in mind.

00:19:42.000 That's the contrast.

00:19:44.000 We want more leverage abroad, more production at home, more growth, and more confidence.

00:19:52.000 That's everything.

00:19:53.000 And what do Democrats offer?

00:19:55.000 More taxes, more regulation.

00:19:58.000 More bureaucracy, more weakness, more dependence, more lectures, and always more excuses.

00:20:08.000 That is why this show matters.

00:20:10.000 Because if you listened only to the people who cover politics for a living, you'd have no idea how much of the real story is being buried on purpose.

00:20:20.000 Now, speaking of stories they're burying on purpose, let's talk about the border.

00:20:25.000 Because these numbers are absolutely devastating to the entire left wing mythology around immigration.

00:20:32.000 For years, we were told this chaos was inevitable, guys.

00:20:36.000 You just got to accept it. 0.88

00:20:37.000 We were told mass asylum abuse was just the new normal.

00:20:41.000 We were told there was no way to regain control.

00:20:46.000 It's just too late.

00:20:47.000 We're just going to have to accept it.

00:20:49.000 We were told compassion meant surrender, and sovereignty was somehow mean.

00:20:55.000 And then Trump comes back.

00:20:57.000 And almost overnight, the numbers collapse.

00:21:01.000 Check this out.

00:21:02.000 Let's talk about what's happened with legal immigration under the second Trump administration.

00:21:08.000 Legal entries by asylum seekers at the U.S. Mexican border, legal entry points, are down 99.9%.

00:21:18.000 Take a look at what happened essentially as President Donald Trump took office.

00:21:23.000 When Joe Biden was in office, 45,000 sought asylum in January of 2024 alone.

00:21:29.000 The drop off right here in January of 2025, happening again with the beginning of the presidency of Donald Trump.

00:21:36.000 Now, let's take a look at refugee admissions from abroad.

00:21:40.000 It's a similar story.

00:21:41.000 The Trump administration slashing the number of refugees admitted in the United States.

00:21:45.000 You can see the dashed line where President Trump takes office representing the steep decline, a 90% drop in the numbers.

00:21:55.000 Nosedive.

00:21:56.000 January 2025.

00:21:57.000 The cap for fiscal year 2026 is just 7,500.

00:22:00.000 So the monthly average for the rest of the year will be 500 refugee claims. 1.00

00:22:06.000 Let's keep going.

00:22:07.000 Custom legal entry are now likely to be 2.5 times higher than illegal entries.

00:22:13.000 Take a look at this graph and digest it for just a moment.

00:22:15.000 There's a lot going on here, a lot of colors.

00:22:17.000 Let's separate it like this.

00:22:19.000 This part of the chart represents illegal entries into the United States.

00:22:23.000 It shows Border Patrol arrests and gotaways.

00:22:25.000 But let's focus on legal entries into the United States.

00:22:28.000 This is a breakdown.

00:22:29.000 Between 2024 and now, of legal entries in the United States, we're talking about refugees, asylum seekers, we're talking about spousal visas, family reunification, H 1B visas, everything down dramatically under President Donald Trump, declining 132,000 so far in his administration.

00:22:51.000 In part, at least on the H 1B visas, driven by the $100,000 fee that is required now to support an H 1B visa.

00:22:58.000 That program alone, which received a lot of conversation, H 1B visas, down.

00:23:04.000 25%.

00:23:04.000 The point is, while the conversation over immigration has faded into the background, and justifiably much of the country talks about Iran, there have been massive victories in talking about gains at the border, gains in immigration, becoming stricter when it comes to not just illegal but legal immigration, so that hopefully in the future we see fewer stories like what we saw this week out of Georgia.

00:23:29.000 Down 99.9%.

00:23:33.000 Not 8%, not 12%, not some little marginal improvement that the media can spin as statistical noise.

00:23:40.000 No, 99.9%.

00:23:44.000 That means all of the people who told you nothing could be done, remember that one for years there?

00:23:50.000 You just can't do anything about it.

00:23:52.000 They were lying.

00:23:53.000 They didn't lack solutions.

00:23:55.000 They lacked the will.

00:23:57.000 They lacked the resolve to do anything.

00:24:00.000 They didn't have a policy problem.

00:24:02.000 They had a loyalty problem.

00:24:04.000 Their loyalty, of course, was to the activist NGOs, the asylum racket, the open border donor class, and to the left wing lawyers who take money.

00:24:16.000 And make money every time America is forced to pretend it has no right to actually defend itself.

00:24:23.000 And while normal Americans like you are looking at those numbers and saying, finally, finally, somebody is enforcing the damn law, the left is still trying to sabotage enforcement in any way they can.

00:24:39.000 This is why sanctuary city fights matter.

00:24:42.000 This is why these blue state lawsuits matter.

00:24:45.000 This is why every battle between the administration and these left wing governors matters.

00:24:50.000 Because when Washington finally decides to secure the border, the Democrats immediately start looking for side doors, back doors, legal tricks, and propaganda campaigns to keep the pipeline and obviously the money flowing.

00:25:06.000 Because whether it's enforcement at the border, enforcement of law and order in our cities, Or enforcing our will at the Straits of Hormuz, Democrats find a way to be totally against it.

00:25:19.000 No matter where in the world it is, they're just against it.

00:25:23.000 I will never set timelines on behalf of the President of the United States, but with respect to the blockade, as you know, it has been fully implemented and it's being enforced against vessels of all nations entering or departing Iranian ports.

00:25:36.000 I want to make that point clear.

00:25:37.000 I've seen some misreporting on that as well.

00:25:40.000 This includes all Iranian ports on the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.

00:25:44.000 And our U.S. forces in the region are supporting the freedom of navigation for vessels that are transiting the strait to and from non Iranian ports.

00:25:52.000 So I know some in the press were confused about that.

00:25:55.000 We are supporting the freedom of navigation, just not with respect to any tanker or vessel that would benefit the economy of Iran as these negotiations continue.

00:26:05.000 And yes, that clip was about Iran.

00:26:08.000 But the principle, guys, the principle is exactly the same enforcement only matters if you actually mean it, if you're serious.

00:26:17.000 People adapt fast.

00:26:19.000 If you're weak, everyone games the system.

00:26:23.000 That's the Trump difference.

00:26:25.000 Everyone knows he actually means it when he says these things.

00:26:29.000 And by the way, if you want to understand just how sick the priorities are on the left, look at what Christopher Ruffo exposed out in California.

00:26:38.000 He's a regular guest on the show, he's been here a lot.

00:26:41.000 Look at what he found.

00:26:42.000 This is insane.

00:26:43.000 According to Ruffo's reporting for the City Journal, California's Medicaid system is covering cross sex hormones, breast implants, and even sex change surgeries.

00:26:55.000 For illegal aliens who are also homeless.

00:26:59.000 I mean, wow.

00:27:02.000 That seems like a real priority.

00:27:03.000 They're homeless. 1.00

00:27:04.000 We'd rather give them boobs and a sex change operation than, I don't know, make them productive, get them out of our country if they're illegal aliens. 1.00

00:27:15.000 And remember, Kamala wanted this for prisoners as well. 1.00

00:27:21.000 She wanted to make sure that prisoners, okay, maybe in jail for murder, maybe in jail for life, could really live out their dream of being trans.

00:27:30.000 So, you know, think about the stack of priorities there.

00:27:35.000 Not citizens first, not veterans first, not working families first, for sure, not taxpayers first, illegal aliens first, homeless ones to be exact, and not just for emergency care or basic treatment. 0.99

00:27:50.000 For trans insanity, they're still pushing it, it's still their top issue, it's still their hill to die on, while the rest pay taxes to fund it. 0.99

00:28:01.000 That's not compassion. 1.00

00:28:03.000 That is ideology.

00:28:05.000 That is ideological insanity with your money behind it.

00:28:11.000 You could not script a more perfect summary of elite left wing priorities if you tried.

00:28:18.000 They don't put Americans first.

00:28:20.000 They don't even pretend to anymore.

00:28:22.000 Their instincts are always the same reward law breaking, subsidize dysfunction, attack common sense, and then they call you cruel or a racist or a misogynist or a transphobe or whatever if you object.

00:28:36.000 Which brings me to our next story.

00:28:39.000 The incredible fall of Fang Fang lovers, Eric Swalwell.

00:28:44.000 Now, who has just not political problems anymore, guys?

00:28:49.000 He doesn't just have political problems.

00:28:51.000 I know he dropped out of the governor's race and apparently he's dropping out of Congress.

00:28:54.000 But now it seems Swalwell has legal and criminal problems as well.

00:29:01.000 This guy spent years positioning himself like he was some sort of Moral authority.

00:29:07.000 He was on his high horse day in and day out.

00:29:09.000 You know, who cares if he was sleeping with a Chinese spy while on an intelligence committee?

00:29:14.000 I mean, they let that stuff go.

00:29:15.000 They all knew for years.

00:29:17.000 But you know what? 1.00

00:29:18.000 He was their useful idiot, so they kept him in there. 1.00

00:29:21.000 He was some grand inquisitor, some cable news tough guy who was going to lecture America about decency and truth and believing all women every time, right? 1.00

00:29:30.000 Believe them all.

00:29:32.000 And accountability. 0.92

00:29:35.000 Meanwhile, this is the same clown who got famous for hanging around Fang Fang, the Chinese spy.

00:29:42.000 This is the same guy who tried to act like Brett Kavanaugh, Supreme Court Justice, should be presumed guilty because of multiple allegations that no one seemed to be able to put together from college.

00:29:53.000 You know, while he was a federal judge for years in the public eye, no one said a peep about him until, oh, now he's going to be a conservative on the Supreme Court.

00:30:00.000 Now we're going to go all in.

00:30:03.000 And now that allegations are pointed at him, hmm.

00:30:07.000 Hmm, suddenly now everyone's lying.

00:30:11.000 Although, I don't know, man, I've been watching on X and Truth and all these things.

00:30:16.000 I see the videos.

00:30:17.000 They don't seem like they're AI, guys.

00:30:19.000 You know how you know that?

00:30:21.000 Because he's not saying that they're AI.

00:30:24.000 He was doing these things.

00:30:26.000 But now, suddenly, magically, he is the victim.

00:30:32.000 Standards don't apply anymore, guys.

00:30:35.000 That's not just hypocrisy, that is the entirety of. 0.96

00:30:38.000 Of the Democrat playbook in one disgusting package. 0.86

00:30:43.000 Here's one of the accusers speaking out just this week. 0.99

00:30:48.000 He raped me, and he choked me. 0.99

00:30:56.000 And while he was choking me, I lost consciousness, and I thought I died. 0.99

00:31:05.000 I did not consent to any sexual activity.

00:31:10.000 Although I did not undergo a rape kit at the time, I disclosed the assault to the people closest to me.

00:31:21.000 I also recorded these events in my handwritten calendar.

00:31:26.000 The assault and its impact were later documented during my therapy sessions at a sexual assault center in Connecticut.

00:31:40.000 It had a profound impact on my mental health.

00:31:45.000 I self medicated in an unhealthy way.

00:31:52.000 I did not want to live anymore.

00:31:56.000 I cried all the time for years.

00:31:58.000 At the time, I was in a dating relationship with a boyfriend I was fully committed to.

00:32:07.000 I've never cheated in my life, and I would never have engaged in a consensual sexual encounter with Eric Spaldwell.

00:32:15.000 I don't know, guys, so I'm curious.

00:32:17.000 Where are all the sanctimonious lectures now?

00:32:20.000 Where are all the fake news moralists who told you the standard was to take accusations seriously?

00:32:26.000 They seem really quiet this week.

00:32:28.000 It's odd.

00:32:29.000 It's shocking.

00:32:31.000 Where are the cable anchors who wanted you to believe there was no such thing as due skepticism whenever it involved a Republican?

00:32:40.000 Huh?

00:32:41.000 They're gone.

00:32:43.000 Totally silent.

00:32:44.000 It's as though they're not even covering the news this week.

00:32:46.000 Maybe they're just on vacation, guys.

00:32:49.000 Maybe they just took the week off, you know.

00:32:52.000 It's always an excuse because, again, the rules are never the rules, the rules are just weapons.

00:33:01.000 Okay, they use them when they can hurt you and they throw them in the trash the second those same standards boomerang back at them. 0.96

00:33:12.000 And it wasn't that long ago that you know, shifty Adam Schiff, you know, pencil neck shift, bullshit, as many call him, and others. 0.96

00:33:20.000 We're out endorsing and proclaiming the greatness of Eric Swalwell in his run for governor. 0.94

00:33:26.000 Check it out.

00:33:27.000 I know the Golden State will be in good hands with Eric Swalwell, and I hope you'll join me in supporting his campaign.

00:33:34.000 I'm in.

00:33:35.000 I'm 100% in.

00:33:37.000 I'm in.

00:33:38.000 I'm We're in.

00:33:46.000 I'm in.

00:33:47.000 I'm all in.

00:33:58.000 You guys get the opportunity to have someone very effective in a position of leadership.

00:34:04.000 Somebody who is capable, knowledgeable, and experienced.

00:34:07.000 There's no one more real than Eric Swalwell.

00:34:10.000 I'm in.

00:34:12.000 I'm in.

00:34:13.000 What about you?

00:34:22.000 You couldn't script a better image of the Democrat machine if you tried. 0.98

00:34:28.000 One of the swampiest, lyingest, dirtiest faces in the entire party. 0.99

00:34:36.000 The entire Democrat party, Adam Schiff, standing there with one of the most shameless hypocrites in Congress. 0.99

00:34:44.000 Acting like, oh, everything is normal, just fine. 0.97

00:34:47.000 Nothing to see here, folks.

00:34:49.000 Acting like there's nothing to answer for.

00:34:52.000 Acting like the rules are still only for other people because.

00:34:56.000 That's what they're used to.

00:34:58.000 They've created a system that enabled that.

00:35:01.000 And then doing a complete 180 and acting like it never happened.

00:35:06.000 I have no idea.

00:35:07.000 I've never met this guy before in my life.

00:35:09.000 Who is this guy?

00:35:10.000 Huh?

00:35:11.000 That's the bubble they live in.

00:35:14.000 And remember, Swalwell, during the Kavanaugh confirmation smear campaign, Swalwell was on TV every night, every night.

00:35:22.000 Much like Adam Schiff, he never met a camera he didn't love, presuming guilt based on no evidence whatsoever.

00:35:29.000 But when he's accused with mountains of evidence, with video, multiple people, hmm.

00:35:37.000 Now he changes his tune.

00:35:40.000 Here's Swallowell then and now to give you a little juxtaposition of how things are.

00:35:46.000 Continued demeaning of victims of sexual assault, people who deserve to be heard, who deserve for their allegations to be investigated, and a president who wants to just rush this through.

00:36:00.000 Taking this long, Ari.

00:36:02.000 And so, for Brett Kavanaugh's sake, if he is innocent, I hope tomorrow he opens his statement and says, You know what?

00:36:09.000 Bring in all the victims.

00:36:10.000 Allow them to be heard.

00:36:12.000 Allow them to be questioned.

00:36:13.000 That will clear his name if he's indeed innocent.

00:36:15.000 And if he's not, for the sake of the credibility of the court, I hope that the senators would vote against him.

00:36:21.000 And, Congressman, as I say to so many guests when they are hit with breaking news, NBC News has reporting.

00:36:26.000 We're going to hear from this reporter momentarily, Casey Hunt, who's here, the Senate probing.

00:36:32.000 A brand new and separate allegation of misconduct against Judge Kavanaugh.

00:36:37.000 Casey Hunt, what are you reporting?

00:36:39.000 Hi, Ari.

00:36:40.000 Well, we have learned that we have a committee, and in it are some work behind the while in peak.

00:36:45.000 Big story.

00:36:46.000 The anonymous who are saying, and how they say, okay, we are seeing the scrutiny in 1998 with him.

00:36:53.000 And so consider this hearing, put the brakes on it, and investigate it.

00:36:56.000 But, Ari, I've seen this in many courtrooms where it's very easy to isolate one incident and You know, shine inaccuracies or inconsistencies on that case, but the more and more cases that are separate and independent that look the same, pretty soon a prosecutor starts to say to a jury, and this is not a jury, but it's allegations that the arrows are pointing in the same direction.

00:37:18.000 And what are the chances that three or four women independently who never met each other would have similar experiences with one person?

00:37:26.000 So either, Ari, this person committed these horrific acts, or he is the single unluckiest person in the world for these people to conspire.

00:37:34.000 And make up lies against him.

00:37:35.000 But it's a very hard case to make the more allegations that come in.

00:37:39.000 And even the counter.

00:37:40.000 Did you ever behave inappropriately with female staffers?

00:37:43.000 No.

00:37:43.000 No, it's false.

00:37:45.000 And also, some of the allegations I've seen, which is that we've had NDAs in the office, never.

00:37:50.000 There's never been an allegation, and there's never been a settlement.

00:37:55.000 And I will also just take stock that, look, we're 27 days before an election starts.

00:38:02.000 That is exactly the kind of clip that tells the whole story with their own words.

00:38:07.000 Same mouth, same politician, same fake moral posture, entirely different standard.

00:38:14.000 The second it became inconvenient for him, for his party, for his ideology.

00:38:21.000 And this is why people hate politicians, guys.

00:38:24.000 Not because politics is messy.

00:38:26.000 People understand that.

00:38:28.000 They hate politicians like Swalwell because he accuses everyone of doing exactly what he's doing himself, seemingly endlessly.

00:38:39.000 This guy went out there and tried to posture as a guardian of women, a guardian of truth, a guardian of accountability.

00:38:48.000 And if these allegations had been against a Republican, he would have been on TV.

00:38:53.000 Every night, foaming at the mouth, demanding resignations, hearings, prosecutions, tears, candlelight vigils, you know, the whole thing.

00:39:04.000 But because it's him?

00:39:06.000 Well, the machine suddenly just turns off.

00:39:10.000 The machine just forgets how any of that actually works.

00:39:15.000 And while we're on the subject of people who lecture America while rotting the country from the inside, let me show you another story that should have every parent, every taxpayer.

00:39:26.000 In every serious person in this country paying attention.

00:39:34.000 Here are the facts, guys. 0.65

00:39:37.000 A Chinese student, Chinese student again at Indiana University pleaded guilty after trying to smuggle E. coli DNA into the United States from China, concealed in his clothing. 0.88

00:39:51.000 Huh, why would a Chinese student smuggle E. coli into the country? 0.70

00:39:55.000 Not like because it was in his salad. 0.96

00:39:59.000 But in his clothing, not vitamins, not paperwork, genetic material.

00:40:06.000 And this isn't some harmless academic mix up, guys.

00:40:11.000 It ties to a broader pattern of cases involving Chinese nationals, research institutions, and sensitive biological materials here in the United States.

00:40:21.000 Remember COVID?

00:40:22.000 Eh, kind of sounds like that.

00:40:24.000 You know, oh, we have no idea what's going on.

00:40:26.000 Oh, yeah, we're definitely not studying it in the lab.

00:40:28.000 Studies the exact virus in question at the exact place that was ground zero.

00:40:32.000 Oh, yeah, total coincidence.

00:40:34.000 You know, we'll shut down travel inside our country, but you know, we won't stop them going to Europe and the rest of the world.

00:40:42.000 That's why this matters. 0.92

00:40:43.000 The Chinese Communist Party and the networks around it do not see our universities, our labs, our visa systems, our openness as something to respect. 0.55

00:40:54.000 They see it as something to exploit.

00:40:58.000 To what end?

00:40:59.000 Seemingly to almost any end that could destroy America.

00:41:04.000 And every time, every time one of these stories comes out, you can practically hear the same old crowd yawning and telling you not to overreact.

00:41:15.000 No, overreaction is not the problem, guys.

00:41:18.000 Complacency is the problem. 0.94

00:41:20.000 Turning a blind eye to this is a serious, serious freaking problem.

00:41:25.000 If you're smuggling biological material into this country, concealing it in your clothing, And tying into a broader pattern of similar cases at places like Michigan and other labs around the country, that maybe, guys, just maybe, the people screaming about xenophobia every time someone raises the CCP infiltration, maybe they're the ones who have some explaining to do.

00:41:53.000 Okay? 0.69

00:41:53.000 No different than what we were talking about last time about birthright citizenship and Chinese farms creating American citizens by. 0.69

00:42:01.000 Just simply being born on this soil and then going back to China to be indoctrinated and educated. 1.00

00:42:06.000 And then guess what? 0.97

00:42:06.000 They can come to America. 0.97

00:42:07.000 They're American citizens.

00:42:08.000 They can vote.

00:42:09.000 They can get into government.

00:42:11.000 Hell, they could possibly even run for president one day.

00:42:15.000 Huh.

00:42:16.000 I wonder what's wrong about this system.

00:42:18.000 I wonder if they'd allow us to do that.

00:42:21.000 This is how decline happens.

00:42:23.000 A country gets so addicted to its own fake moral vanity that it stops defending itself.

00:42:29.000 It starts treating vigilance like paranoia.

00:42:32.000 It starts treating common sense like extremism.

00:42:35.000 Sound familiar?

00:42:36.000 Yeah, it does. 1.00

00:42:38.000 And then one day, it wakes up and it realizes everyone else took advantage of that utter stupidity. 1.00

00:42:47.000 No thanks, guys. 1.00

00:42:49.000 Not anymore.

00:42:50.000 Now we're actually prosecuting it.

00:42:53.000 And there's a broad theme running through this whole episode.

00:42:58.000 Strength and sanity are coming back.

00:43:00.000 But the institutional left is still revealing just how corrupt, just how dishonest and anti American it really is.

00:43:09.000 The Department of Justice just released a massive report on how the Biden administration weaponized the FACE Act against pro life Americans and people of faith.

00:43:21.000 It's wild that they can do this.

00:43:24.000 We're talking about an 800 plus page report laying out how the law was used aggressively against pro life activists, while attacks on churches and pro life centers got treated with, I don't know, let's just say, a whole lot less urgency, if any.

00:43:43.000 Again, this is the same crowd that spent years pretending the Justice Department was, I don't know, some sort of neutral guardian of democracy.

00:43:52.000 The same people who screamed about norms and institutions, the same people.

00:43:58.000 Who wanted you to believe every prosecution, every raid, every selective investigation, every leak, every abuse of power, you know, the processes of the punishment?

00:44:09.000 You know, that was just the system working exactly as intended.

00:44:14.000 No, it was weaponization, it was ideological enforcement, it was political lawfare dressed up as principle.

00:44:24.000 And it wasn't just about my father or my family.

00:44:28.000 We were the main target, obviously.

00:44:31.000 Because we stood in the way.

00:44:34.000 But the broader machine was aimed at anyone who challenged the ruling dogma.

00:44:40.000 Parents, Christians, pro lifers, normal people who refused to kneel down, to bend to their will.

00:44:48.000 You know, again, we were the number one target, but there were plenty out there.

00:44:51.000 They wanted to make sure that anyone, anyone who had the guts to perhaps ever step into that ring, to challenge those fake norms, that weaponized injustice, They wanted to make sure they never put their hat in the ring.

00:45:06.000 It's what they tried to do to my father.

00:45:08.000 I'm sure it's what they'll try to do to him again.

00:45:11.000 And while that was going on, Democrats were still trying to rig the system anywhere else they could. 1.00

00:45:18.000 Just look at what moderate Governor Abigail Spamberger is doing in Virginia.

00:45:42.000 There it is, guys.

00:45:43.000 Another elite scheme to nullify the constitutional system because they don't like the outcomes when normal Americans actually get a say.

00:45:55.000 When normal Americans, normal states, when their opinion matters, we're going to do whatever we can to negate that.

00:46:02.000 They always dress it up in the language of democracy.

00:46:05.000 It's about making sure that a handful of metro area elite institutions can override the rest of the country forever.

00:46:14.000 That compact is not some sort of noble reform, guys.

00:46:18.000 It's an end run.

00:46:20.000 It is a rigging operation in a suit and tie.

00:46:25.000 And the common thread between all of these stories the left doesn't trust the American people.

00:46:30.000 They don't want you to have any say, and it doesn't want them to determine their own destiny.

00:46:37.000 They don't trust citizens.

00:46:39.000 They don't trust constitutional limits.

00:46:41.000 They don't trust borders.

00:46:43.000 They don't trust faith.

00:46:44.000 They don't trust local communities.

00:46:46.000 They don't trust voters unless the voters are completely managed, unless they're just pawns for the Democrat machine.

00:46:55.000 They trust bureaucrats, obviously.

00:46:56.000 They trust their paid activists.

00:46:59.000 They trust institutions that they can capture.

00:47:02.000 They trust systems that they can game.

00:47:05.000 And they trust media allies to cover the whole thing up.

00:47:11.000 Which is why, when one of their own gets exposed, like, I don't know, Eric Swalwell, they don't suddenly rediscover principle.

00:47:19.000 They just go straight into protection mode.

00:47:22.000 They go into the cover up.

00:47:24.000 Ignore, lie, deceive, cover, cancel.

00:47:30.000 They just hide it all.

00:47:32.000 And this is actually a pretty clear snapshot of the country right now.

00:47:37.000 On one side, you have real momentum.

00:47:40.000 You have energy growth.

00:47:42.000 You have market confidence.

00:47:44.000 You have the border getting back under control.

00:47:47.000 You have an administration that actually believes in enforcement.

00:47:51.000 On the other side, you have sanctimony without standards.

00:47:55.000 You have corruption without shame.

00:47:57.000 You have politicians like Swalwell who want one legal system for their enemies and another for themselves.

00:48:05.000 You have blue state insanity that puts illegal aliens over taxpayers.

00:48:09.000 You have institutional games to rewrite elections when they don't like the map.

00:48:15.000 And you have years of documented weaponization against Americans who simply refused to go along with it.

00:48:22.000 That's the choice.

00:48:24.000 Not Republicans versus Democrats in some old, stale, abstract sense.

00:48:30.000 Order versus chaos.

00:48:32.000 Strength versus weakness.

00:48:35.000 Citizens versus institutions.

00:48:38.000 Truth versus propaganda.

00:48:40.000 And yes, guys, normal people versus frauds.

00:48:45.000 Because that's really what so much of this comes down to frauds, fraudulent moralizers, fraudulent prosecutors.

00:48:54.000 Fraudulent public servants, fraudulent reformers, and of course, fraudulent experts.

00:49:02.000 And one by one, their masks keep slipping.

00:49:05.000 And that's why we're here to expose it in episode after episode.

00:49:11.000 So pay attention.
