J.D. Trump is back in the White House, and he's got a lot to talk about. First, he's taking on Joe Biden and his incompetent group of boos, but we're not sick of winning yet. Then, he goes after Colombia, and they don't want their illegal immigrants back. Finally, Bernie Marino has been elected to the US Senate from Ohio.
00:06:59.000And for all of the top headlines we spotlight here on the show, go over and check out my news app, MXM News, like minute by minute.
00:07:07.000MXM News, where you can get the mainstream news without...
00:07:12.000We'll get to the top of the news in just a second, because God knows there's enough to talk about.
00:07:17.000But don't also forget about some of our incredibly brave sponsors, people who had the guts to support programming like this before it was in vogue, when there were still consequences.
00:07:28.000So make sure to check them out and support them.
00:07:31.000Who you support makes a big difference.
00:08:42.000We're sending them back to their home countries.
00:08:44.000And if the countries don't want to accept them, they're going to pay a very heavy price.
00:08:51.000Colombia and its far-left leaders are learning this the hard way.
00:08:55.000It all started when Colombian President Petro prevented two U.S. military aircraft full of his citizens from landing in the country on Sunday amid a mass deportation effort of those in America illegally, guys.
00:09:17.000Could they be not ideal people to have in America?
00:09:21.000Could they be people that, let's just say, they wouldn't want in Colombia?
00:09:25.000Well, in rapid response, My father threatened steep economic and diplomatic sanctions, including a 25% tariff on goods coming in from Colombia.
00:09:38.000Shockingly, shockingly, just hours later, I think it was like 90 minutes, the Colombian president said he'd comply with the flights and send out a rambling, quite bizarre message that didn't really make much sense.
00:09:51.000But what does make sense is that the clear and powerful message my father is sending to the rest of the world, guys.
00:10:02.000This administration is standing up for Americans and standing up for American sovereignty.
00:10:08.000I know that's a novel concept after the last four years that we've had.
00:10:12.000And there's no one that better understands how to wield America's economic might.
00:10:19.000And yet, These moron bureaucrats who've never done anything in the real world and they've just been in government, they don't understand how to do that.
00:10:26.000They wouldn't have a slightest clue how to utilize that.
00:11:05.000They're not thrilled that we don't just give them everything they want and they can terrorize our citizens and run roughshod over our laws.
00:11:14.000Here's a clip of a Haitian who had this to say.
00:11:18.000When being arrested by ICE. One of those threats is this illegal alien from Haiti.
00:11:26.000ICE says he's a gang member with 17 criminal convictions in recent years.
00:12:19.000What kind of civilization could even survive allowing these people in?
00:12:22.000But still, even some in the media, as obvious as that is, and as much sense as it makes, they're still defending the illegals.
00:12:32.000But luckily we have another great weapon on our side.
00:12:36.000J.D. Vance, this weekend, delivered a reality check on CBS. Check this out.
00:12:44.000...that all these immigrants or all these refugees have been properly vetted.
00:12:47.000In fact, we know that there are cases of people who allegedly were properly vetted and then were literally planning terrorist attacks on our country.
00:12:55.000That happened during the campaign, if you may remember.
00:12:58.000So clearly not all of these foreign nationals have been properly vetted.
00:13:00.000No, but there are 30,000 people in the pipeline.
00:13:03.000But my primary concern as the Vice President, Margaret, is to look after the American people.
00:13:08.000And now that we know that we have vetting problems with a lot of these refugee programs, we absolutely cannot unleash thousands of unvetted people into our country.
00:13:30.000I don't want my children to share a neighborhood with people who are not properly vetted, and because I don't want it for my kids, I'm not going to force any other American citizens' kids to do that either.
00:13:39.000No, and that was a very particular case.
00:13:41.000It wasn't clear if he was radicalized when he got here or while he was living here.
00:13:53.000Well, speaking for me and many other people, I too don't really care, Margaret, when he got radicalized or how he got radicalized.
00:14:00.000This is not someone we want in our country.
00:14:02.000So, like I said, guys, my father is off to a fast start.
00:14:07.000And this includes signing a wave of executive orders to dismantle DEI, or as I refer to it, D-I-E, because that seems to be what happens when we follow these policies.
00:14:17.000We're going to restore merit-based hiring.
00:14:22.000I know it's hard to believe that we'd actually want to hire, I don't know, someone who could actually be qualified to do the job or maybe someone who deserves it.
00:14:31.000You know, the whole merit side of things.
00:14:33.000I understand that that is also probably going to be very adverse to the feelings of those in the mainstream media, but it doesn't matter.
00:15:05.000And yet we get to pay for it and we pay for the electricity in these buildings and we pay to maintain these buildings that aren't even occupied.
00:15:10.000And, you know, I'm sure they're probably working other side jobs or they're just walking their dog while you are paying their salary.
00:15:39.000Because under Pete Hegseth, who on Friday was confirmed to be our Secretary of Defense, winning, we're getting the military back to its true purpose of lethality.
00:15:53.000And actual readiness, not woke nonsense and far-left activism.
00:15:58.000Here's Pete Hegseth laying out the key tenets of his agenda for the Department of Defense.
00:16:06.000It's an honor to salute smartly, as I did as a junior officer and now as the Secretary of Defense, to ensure these orders are complied with rapidly and quickly.
00:16:17.000Every moment that I'm here, I'm thinking about the guys and gals in Guam.
00:16:23.000In Germany, in Fort Benning and Fort Bragg, on missile defense sites and aircraft carriers.
00:16:30.000Our job is lethality and readiness and warfighting.
00:16:35.000We're going to hold people accountable.
00:17:30.000And my father, President Trump, also directed the Office of Management and Budget to end all DEI mandates, policies, and programs across all agencies.
00:17:43.000Guys, if you think that's enough, that is not all.
00:17:49.000My father also revoked a Lyndon Johnson-era affirmative action executive order to ensure that hiring decisions are based on merit and not radical left-wing agendas.
00:18:15.000And our country is now in a much better place than it was prior to January 20th.
00:18:21.000This is what I've been saying for a long time, guys.
00:18:24.000This administration, after America went through four years of hell, after my father went through the last four years of hell, after I went through four years of hell as one of the most subpoenaed people in the history of the world, now we have a new team.
00:18:36.000I tweeted the other night, all Democrats had to do was shut the hell up.
00:18:40.000All they had to do was not get involved, not play games, not cheat in the 2020 election.
00:18:45.000You'd have had this same can-kicking 2016 to 2020 Trump administration that would have known better, slow-rolled everything for the next four years.
00:18:55.000We wouldn't have gotten anything done.
00:19:11.000You're not going to have those people slow-rolling him.
00:19:13.000You're not going to have people convincing him, well, no, maybe there's a nice way to do this.
00:19:18.000We're just going to do the things we said we were going to do.
00:19:21.000And we have a team that believes in that same agenda.
00:19:25.000Had the Democrats just shut the hell up, had they not gotten involved, had they not cheated, had not played games, honestly, there would have been probably a Democrat president, assuming the White House last week.
00:20:02.000More importantly, Americans now get it too, whether it's the youth of America or others that finally understand that the Republican Party, and really the America First Party, which is what it is now, is all about them, and they're going to deliver.
00:20:32.000My father also fulfilled his promise to Ross Albrecht, who was sentenced to multiple life sentences in prison without parole for creating an online marketplace, Silk Road.
00:20:43.000Ross created a platform but was held responsible for those who used it to engage in illegal activity like selling drugs.
00:20:51.000I mean, many talk about him as being one of the guys that created the pathway to crypto and all of the things that we're seeing.
00:20:57.000But, you know, hey, that kind of control, that gets you multiple life sentences under the Democrats.
00:21:02.000And the judge who sentenced them inflicted an especially harsh sentence because she claimed that Ross had, and I quote, privilege.
00:21:11.000It was an injustice that has now been made right.
00:21:16.000Whether it's that, whether it's the freeing of the J6 prisoners, the pardons, the executive orders to make common sense great again.
00:21:28.000On every issue, we are delivering big wins.
00:21:32.000Last week, my father took his America First message to the elites at the World Economic Forum.
00:21:37.000And let's just say he didn't hold back.
00:21:41.000Make your product in America or suffer the consequences.
00:21:46.000To every business in the world is very simple.
00:21:49.000Come make your product in America and we will give you among the lowest taxes of any nation on earth.
00:21:56.000We're bringing them down very substantially, even from the original Trump tax cuts.
00:22:01.000But if you don't make your product in America, which is your prerogative, then very simply you will have to pay a tariff, differing amounts, but a tariff which will direct hundreds of billions of dollars and even trillions of dollars into our treasury to strengthen our economy and pay down debt. but a tariff which will direct hundreds of billions of Well, he didn't stop there.
00:22:24.000Bank of America for their debanking of conservatives.
00:22:28.000Speaking of you, and you've done a fantastic job, but I hope you start opening your bank to conservatives because many conservatives complain that the banks are not allowing them to do business within the bank, and that included a place called Bank of America.
00:22:43.000They don't take conservative business.
00:22:46.000And I don't know if the regulators mandated that because of Biden or what, but you and Jamie and everybody, I hope you're going to open your banks to conservatives because what you're doing is wrong.
00:22:59.000Mr. President, I'll say that your friend Gianni said hello, told me to tell you hello, and we look forward to sponsoring the World Cup when it comes both this summer for the club and next year, so thank you.
00:23:36.000Mitch McConnell's not voting for any of our people, some of the other rhinos.
00:23:40.000So even if we have 53 in the Senate, it doesn't really matter that much.
00:23:43.000Make sure they understand that Donald Trump deserves the cabinet that you all mandated, that you guys all voted for, that he made very clear that he was going to put in there when he runs.
00:23:56.000So we'll ask Bernie Moreno about that in a couple seconds as well.
00:24:01.000It turns out that a doctor's committee, a committee of very serious doctors, opposing Bobby Kennedy, opposing RFK Jr., is backed by none other than Bill Gates, and even includes, shockingly, fake names and fake doctors.
00:24:18.000It's fake names, fake doctors, signing a fake petition to try to stop RFK Jr. from exposing the flaws in our health care and food systems.
00:24:31.000Maybe everything that's been said about Bill Gates on the internet is true, but they're trying to do this because they're trying to pressure senators with fake information to, you know, like when it's unnamed sources have said really bad things about Pete Hexeth, even though plenty of people were willing to come out and say this is nonsense and actually sign their name to it.
00:24:46.000We've seen this process play out before.
00:24:49.000Do not let the clowns like Bill Gates and his foundation and his billions get away with it.
00:24:55.000How about instead we let RFK Jr. make America healthy again?
00:25:37.000They're cutting through the red tape to get you the meds you need fast, easy, with no interference.
00:25:42.000Whether it's ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, you know, those bad things that, you know, other guys wouldn't want you to have but have been proven to be really effective and surprisingly cheap so they don't make billions of antibiotics or other essential medications.
00:25:56.000You can check out their website and find the medications that you need.
00:26:00.000All Family Pharma even lets you order.
00:27:07.000And it's great to see you defeating a longtime leftist that voted with Joe Biden like 99 percent of the time while running ads like he's this great Trump-supporting moderate.
00:27:15.000I mean, enough of the nonsense in politics.
00:27:23.000Yeah, you know, you talked about nominations and confirmations.
00:27:27.000Look, this is the easiest thing we'll do in the Senate.
00:27:29.000We should be confirming every single one of President Trump's nominees with unanimous support from Republicans.
00:27:35.000Look, they're all dramatically better than all Biden's people.
00:27:40.000And every Democrat and a lot of Republicans voted for these clowns.
00:27:43.000So for us, this is the easiest thing we got to do.
00:27:45.000Yeah, when I see Republicans that voted for Mayorkas, but, you know, won't vote for our nominees to do, like, literally what the American people clearly want.
00:27:57.000You know, I see, you know, hey, Mitch McConnell voted for all these leftists that have been an abject disaster, but he won't vote for Pete Hanks, and he probably won't vote for Bobby Kennedy and all of this.
00:28:52.000Obviously friends and relatives from there.
00:28:54.000Your reaction to what we're seeing play out on the world stage.
00:28:58.000When they basically tried turning back criminal illegals that are from Colombia.
00:29:03.000They won't even take their own criminals back, but they want them to stay in our country.
00:29:06.000And yet, once you wield America's economic might and actually put some resolve behind it, it's sort of amazing what we're seeing play out, not just there, but on a world stage.
00:29:27.000This was the easiest thing for Colombia to do.
00:29:29.000The president there is a rabid socialist.
00:29:32.000The people of Colombia can't stand the guy.
00:29:34.000They're going to get rid of him in the next election.
00:29:36.000But look, at the end of the day, this is very simple.
00:29:39.000It was criminal illegal aliens that were being shipped back by their own constitution.
00:29:45.000Columbia is required to take them back.
00:29:48.000And at the last minute, this guy at three o'clock in the morning refuses to allow the plane to come in.
00:29:53.000Totally disgraceful, total slap in the face against America.
00:29:57.000Look, he thought Biden was still in office because at the end of the day, had Biden been in office and not President Donald J. Trump, we probably would have accepted it.
00:30:04.000But President Trump, while playing golf between hole three and hole four, says, hey, listen, this is what you want to do.
00:30:12.000Here's a list of the things we'll do to you.
00:30:13.000The guy folded like a cheap suit, tried to alpha male Trump and say, hey, I'll send my presidential jet.
00:30:21.000President Trump made it clear, you're going to accept every single criminal illegal.
00:30:26.000Because we've done a lot for Colombia.
00:30:28.000And again, let me emphasize, the people of Colombia love America, love President Trump, hate Petro.
00:30:37.000And this shows that we have to use American strength, economic strength, to get our agenda and strength around the world projected.
00:30:44.000I'm going to introduce a bill here in the Senate to give the tools to President Trump legally to say, hey, look, we have this ready.
00:30:52.000So if something like this happens in any other nation, we're going to go after you, not just the country, but the individuals and target them through our banking system.
00:31:01.000We can never allow this kind of American disrespect to happen again.
00:31:05.000Yeah, I mean, it's sort of, I mean, you know, obviously the Democrats had no intention of trying to stop that.
00:31:09.000They need to create, you know, dependent voters.
00:31:31.000It's something my father clearly understands how to use.
00:31:34.000You would, as a businessman who built an incredible business, would understand how to do that.
00:31:39.000But maybe talk about that relative to the standard sort of political class who just wouldn't even think to do something like this.
00:31:45.000And so you have this, you know, we're this big juggernaut, and it's like we don't use the tools in our arsenal to get things done and just let the rest of the world, frankly, some of these, you know, small and or even third-world countries just run roughshod all over us.
00:31:57.000You know, these guys make the simple very complicated.
00:32:01.000At the end of the day, look, you go to a country like Colombia and say, option one, you're our friend.
00:33:00.000I got in a lot of trouble because I was like, you know, when NATO is doing their whole thing going against us, I'm like, so we fund like 70% of all of NATO. They don't want to, they're not prepared.
00:33:07.000They don't want to put their money in it.
00:33:08.000They don't even follow the agreements they signed in terms of what they're contributing.
00:33:12.000I'm like, well, with allies or friends like those kinds of nations, who needs enemies?
00:33:17.000And the same would seemingly go for all these countries in Latin America who often don't play along.
00:33:22.000And they're happy to take advantage of us when we're writing checks.
00:33:24.000But when we actually request something back of them that seems quite reasonable, like taking back their citizens who are illegally here and criminals, it's a problem.
00:33:34.000Yeah, I mean, have you ever had a friend or an ex-friend, I should say, where every single time you went out...
00:33:39.000The expectation was that you would pay the check.
00:33:41.000After 50 times, you go to a restaurant and you say, hey man, why don't you pick it up this time?
00:34:25.000And President Trump has showed him, look, if you want to act like that, if you want to have that relationship, there's going to be consequences.
00:35:10.000So we have a process to say, hey, if you claim asylum, then you're allowed to come in and we hear your claim and you go into the interior of the country, you're paroled.
00:35:19.000But what's happened is the drug cartels, who are pretty much smarter than every one of our politicians, are exploiting that and they bring...
00:35:28.000Economic migrants to our border and say, hey, look, you're not allowed to come in as an economic migrant because you're skipping in line in front of millions of people.
00:35:37.000And what Biden was doing was paroling him into the U.S., feeding him, housing him, giving him health care.
00:35:42.000What we're saying in our bill that we're introduced called the Rules Act is saying, no, no, no, you're not allowed to skip ahead refugees and you can't file a fake asylum claim.
00:35:51.000And if you do, you're never going to be allowed into this country.
00:35:54.000And if you're here and had a fake asylum claim, you can never come back in.
00:35:59.000And you can only do it at a legal port of entry.
00:36:02.000I'm sure, Don, you would invite people to your home all the time.
00:36:05.000But they have to come through your front door.
00:36:07.000They can't break through your kitchen window because that's a problem.
00:36:11.000And that's what we're allowing people to do.
00:36:13.000They're allowed to cross the river, jump over a wall, and then claim asylum.
00:36:17.000And all of a sudden, we forgive that original sin.
00:37:13.000And I'm hooked to putting it in front of your dad's office and have him sign it into law.
00:37:18.000It will lower border crossings by about 70%.
00:37:22.000I think that'd be important because you're right.
00:37:24.000We've seen a lot of executive actions going on right now, whether it's immigration, DEI, so far so good.
00:37:33.000But what do you think we can actually get done legislatively?
00:37:36.000You can do the executive action, but that can be taken away with a stroke of a pen in four years or whenever it may be by the Democrats.
00:37:42.000I'd love to see this stuff actually codified into law.
00:37:45.000It seems like you're leading that charge with the new pieces of legislation that you're coming up with as it relates to immigration.
00:37:50.000But how do we get these other things in there, perhaps while we have the House and Senate, or perhaps there's a chance to get some people, you know, Democrats that understand just how badly their people are sick of this crap.
00:38:04.000How do we get this stuff actually written into law so it can't just go away and that we have common legislation that actually stands the test of time?
00:38:12.000Yeah, I think we have to do it one thing at a time.
00:39:09.000You know, I'd like to ask you because, you know, God knows they tried going after you because, you know, you were the Republican nominee and you ran.
00:39:15.000So the media is going to do that to you.
00:39:16.000That's sort of the nature of the beast when you're on our side.
00:39:19.000But what do you make of the media still very eager to defend not just illegal aliens, but like criminal illegal aliens?
00:39:26.000What drives that reflex to act like, you know, these crazy people when we're just carrying out deportations of the bad guys?
00:39:37.000They're completely insane, some of them, but they're also masters of deception because what they do is they take this idea of illegal immigration, which most Americans are for legal immigration the way I just outlined it, and then add...
00:39:52.000Like, they have this idea that we're out deporting children on the way to school.
00:39:56.000I mean, that we're taking away the citizenship of people like me who are nationalized citizens.
00:40:01.000They're just all about scare tactics because, like, they got nothing on policy.
00:40:05.000They have no real policies that advance this country.
00:40:09.000We saw that for four years under Joe Biden.
00:40:11.000I mean, your dad could have relaxed and had a great life and not run again, but he loves this country to his core, which is why he's out here.
00:40:53.000Or if they win again, they'll go back to their usual ways.
00:40:56.000So that's why it's going to be so important to stay active, not just accept this, but stay active in the midterm process.
00:41:02.000Just make gains on the slim majority that we have.
00:41:07.000I mean, they have to understand where Americans are.
00:41:09.000And I mean, I think the Democrats voting to protect pedophiles and criminals and all this stuff in our country, just understand that they hate you.
00:42:04.000Go out and campaign for good America First candidates in the midterms and do everything I can to change the nature and complexion of what the Senate looks like.
00:42:17.000We have a lot of us that are united together to get this country to the right place because we can't count on your dad to be doing this forever.
00:42:24.000And what he's done for this country is the greatest service any American's ever done.
00:42:29.000So, you know, speaking of which, obviously, you know, the Senate and the House and, you know, every, you know, school board all the way down to dog catcher, that all matters.
00:42:36.000But we also have another slate of confirmation hearings this week.
00:42:39.000We got Kash Patel for FBI, Tulsi Gabbard for DNI, RFK Jr. for HHS. Talk about how your meetings with them have gone.
00:42:49.000What do you expect to hear in these hearings?
00:42:51.000You know, what's the time frame on voting for confirmation?
00:42:54.000You know, do you see any Democrats giving us any of these people?
00:42:58.000Republicans roll over and give us the biggest communists in the world, but the Democrats seem to be pretty steadfast against it.
00:43:04.000And then, you know, some of the usual rhinos in the Republican Senate are also voting against it.
00:43:09.000But this is obviously a big leak for things that matter so much to us, whether it's health, whether it's national security, whether it's, you know, putting someone who will break down the weaponized justice system in the FBI and what we've seen over the last few years.
00:43:22.000What do you see transpiring this week?
00:43:36.000Howard Lutnick, I think, will have no problem.
00:43:39.000Scott Besson just got confirmed before I started on this podcast.
00:43:42.000I think RFK and Tulsi are going to be a battle.
00:43:47.000It's going to be a lot of political theater, but I'm confident what we saw as a result of getting Pete across the finish line, I think we're going to get him there.
00:43:56.000Maybe J.D. needs to leave dinner like he had to and come and break a tie, but that's okay.
00:44:04.000Look, I think Cash has done such an incredible job.
00:44:07.000I mean, every senator I talk to is totally blown away because, of course, they read the mainstream media and thought Cash was some kind of crazy person.
00:44:32.000Their failed policies were a disaster for this country over the last four years.
00:44:36.000And they got the stink of Joe Biden on them for a long time.
00:44:39.000Well, you know, I know you have a heart out with some of the stuff going on right now, but before we go, since you're a car guy, obviously, you know, ran a big business, created a bunch of car dealerships, you know, that's where you came from.
00:44:49.000My father revoked the EV mandate, the electric vehicle mandate.
00:44:57.000What do you see that in terms of American manufacturing?
00:45:00.000Obviously, that's not a ban on electric vehicles.
00:45:02.000It just says, hey, we're not going to subsidize something at the expense of something else when it seemed like so many people were willing to literally destroy the American automotive industry, you know, to push something that, you know, probably indirectly benefit China more than anything, given that they have all the rare earth minerals, they control the lithium mines that go into the battery packs of these things.
00:45:20.000You know, what do you see going on in the auto industry?
00:45:24.000So we're going to introduce something called the American Freedom Act.
00:45:26.000I'm sorry, the Automotive Freedom Act.
00:45:28.000Look, we've got to get rid of these EV incentives.
00:47:02.000Bernie Marino, the senior senator from the great state of Ohio, and someone who's going to be fighting there for the America First MAGA cause for a long time.
00:47:28.000And, you know, for California, for some of the stuff, like we got to have some fairness in these elections and we need some basic common sense policies.
00:47:34.000And maybe you got to link that to if you want your billions in federal aid.
00:47:59.000It was visiting the people in North Carolina who also got crushed with natural disasters this year and were seemingly neglected entirely.
00:48:09.000So I know he's talking about having the Army Corps of Engineers get in there, rebuild some of these bridges and towns and get these people what they need, not just those who perhaps have more of direct access to the Democrat machine.
00:48:23.000So it's a big deal, and we're actually doing this.
00:49:19.000That's why I said earlier, I said in the intro, if Democrats would have just shut the hell up, let Trump win in 20, right now you'd probably be sitting on a Democrat president because we didn't have a bench.
00:49:31.000We didn't have anyone other than Trump that was willing to fight.
00:49:33.000He would have not been nearly as effective in the last four years as he will be in this next four years because they didn't have a team that believed it or was willing to fight.
00:49:40.000They were just sort of waiting it out.
00:49:41.000You know, we'll get back to the swamp in a little bit.
00:51:08.000I'm almost glad it worked out the way it did.
00:51:12.000Like I said, if Democrats just shut the hell up, they didn't try to stick in a puppet candidate like Biden, and they didn't play their games, America would have been clueless.
00:51:19.000The guys watching this, many of you would have probably got it.
00:53:47.000So it's not about Trump or, you know, whatever, doing these things.
00:53:50.000You need to get your congressman to actually fight for these things.
00:53:53.000And so, with a slim majority, That takes a lot more going and a lot more doing.
00:53:59.000It's why we've got to stay active, not just right now, but we've got to stay active during the midterms, and we've got to try to increase our three-vote majority in Congress so that we can do a lot more, a lot faster, so we can do things actually legislatively, signing them into actual law, not just doing it as an executive action.
00:54:41.000And, you know, that's a pretty liberal place.
00:54:42.000But I knew there was something going on in the election last year because, you know, Aspen is like sort of very liberal place with all these sort of woke, you know, I knew there was something going on where,
00:55:00.000you know, some very privileged, very lucky people who definitely would have been sort of default Democrats, instead of sort of giving me like the cold shoulder or like side eye, were running up and taking selfies and saying, let's get going.
00:55:13.000You know, that was one of the first things I noticed when I'm like, wait a second, there's something really interesting.
00:55:18.000Uh, going on here and something different.
00:55:30.000So, you know, my personal favorite, you know, I love like really precise long range guns.
00:55:34.000Uh, but you know, you gotta have a handguns and you gotta have shotguns and the shotgun that you're using for home defense may not be the same shotgun as you're shooting clays with.
00:55:47.000And I think what's really interesting, I was out, I actually right after the election, I went right out to SHOT Show, which is like the biggest gun industry show.
00:55:54.000And from there, I went to Safari Club, you know, one of the biggest hunting shows out there.
00:56:00.000But, you know, at SHOT Show, the momentum was great.
00:56:04.000And it wasn't just because people or the industry folks were excited to sell out of fear, which is what happens, you know, the Democrats win and they sell a lot of stuff because people are fear buying.
00:56:14.000They were actually excited because, like, they actually believe now Americans are actually going to pay because they're going to have excess money.
00:56:20.000They can buy the cool gun that they've always wanted, not just buy, you know, a bunch of, like, stripped lower ARs so that they have something in their safe against a ban.
00:56:46.000So that's a really big deal and a big difference.
00:56:50.000When will ATF finally abolish for their attack on legal law-abiding citizens?
00:56:54.000You know, I know Pam Bondi's, you know, working hard on getting someone at ATF who's not just, you know, an anti-gun kind of person so we can make those things, make all of that go well.
00:57:05.000And, you know, who knows what they do with it in the end.
00:57:08.000You know, maybe it gets absorbed somewhere else.
00:57:34.000President Trump announced his plans to impose tariffs on foreign computer chips and pharma producers outside of the U.S. If you want to stop these tariffs, you need to build plants in the U.S., is my father's direct quote.
00:57:50.000Because don't forget, it's like 93% of our antibiotics and medicine we get from China.
00:57:55.000A vast majority of the chips we get from Taiwan, who's a great ally, but also sits 68 miles off the coast of China, and they may take them over.
00:58:04.000And let's just say, if we get in a war, we'd love not to.
00:58:10.000But if you get in one with China, I imagine they could take over Taiwan and there's probably not a lot we could do about it from 6,000 miles away relative to 60 miles away.
01:00:32.000Right now it's trading under CLBR, so we're doing that in a SPAC. You know, taking Grab A Gun public so that others can...
01:00:40.000You know, shop for guns the way they do everything else.
01:00:42.000Obviously, you have to go through an FFL process and do it still legally, but, like, they're streamlining it, giving people, and new people, especially women and younger people who may not have perhaps bought guns that way.
01:00:53.000So, again, like, we're fighting these things on all fronts, guys.
01:00:56.000That's why, again, whether it's I'm talking about the sponsors of this show.
01:00:59.000Or, you know, if you buy CLBR just to support those guys that are doing these things that you thought would have been impossible, like taking a gun company public.
01:01:07.000New, you saw what we did with Public Square, PSQH, taking them public on the NASDAQ two years ago.
01:01:12.000That's some of the payment stack and tech stack for buy now, pay later options.
01:01:18.000We're doing it a lot for the gun industry, but plenty of other industries as well so that you're not worried about getting canceled or you're not going to just get shut down because you're trying to Literally exercise your Second Amendment rights.
01:01:30.000So there's guys like me that'll be out there doing all of these things.
01:01:36.000So the other breaking news, President Trump, your favorite president, my father, directs Department of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to begin construction of an Iron Dome system here in America.
01:01:51.000We seem to give the Iron Dome to a lot of People around the world, some of our allies, but we don't actually have those same defenses here in America to protect us, to protect our children.
01:02:03.000So again, we are putting America first.
01:02:08.000I know I heard about it conceptually, but apparently it just happened.
01:02:11.000Directing Pete Hegseth to begin construction of an Iron Dome system in America.
01:02:16.000That's the missile system that shoots down all the other missiles from our bad actors and enemies around the world who would clearly try to take advantage of that.
01:02:27.000So it's nice that we can build these systems here, not just build them and use them for, I guess, some of our friends abroad.
01:03:49.000They revoked the 52 or whatever it was.
01:03:52.000People with real dollars that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
01:03:56.000Well, if you're going to lie to the American public, if you're going to use the guise of This clearance is like, oh, well, I have clearance, so I must know.
01:04:06.000Even if you're going to lie to the American public, gone.
01:04:10.000By the way, there's no reason for these people to have them.
01:04:12.000If they're no longer working in government, they shouldn't just use those clearances to be able to trade off of that, get great, high-paying jobs, weaponize this information.
01:04:21.000It's sort of like insider trading, right?
01:04:23.000I mean, we've got to do something about that, too.
01:04:26.000But we've got to do these things slowly but surely.
01:04:33.000So they've already started revoking some of those security clearances because there's no reason for those people to have them, especially if they're going to lie.
01:04:39.000They're going to try to change the outcomes of elections.
01:05:06.000It's spelled a little differently there, but yes, I agree with you.
01:05:10.000You know, it'd be nice, but now he's in the Senate.
01:05:12.000I'm sure he'll have all the highest security clearances, and he'll probably get put on intelligence committees like he was in the House and weaponize that against the Americans.
01:06:09.000He just said, you know, nice to meet you and good luck, whatever it is.
01:06:11.000I asked him about it afterwards, you know, right there.
01:06:15.000The memes were pretty amazing, but, you know, I don't think it was anything all that sinister, despite, you know, I think Joe Biden just forgot where he was for a minute, so it looked like it was.
01:06:23.000But, you know, at the time, it didn't seem like there was anything all there, but you guys, the internet will always have some fun with these things.
01:06:30.000And so, you know, it was fun saying hi to Hillary and Bill.
01:07:09.000text, you know, just go on your phone, type in 989898, and then in the text, put Don Jr.
01:07:14.000So you're going to text Don Jr., D-O-N-J-A-R, to the number 989898 and claim you're free, no obligation info kit on gold from the Birch Gold Group.
01:08:18.000That worked with Jeff Landry, former AG of Louisiana, to combat sort of the big tech and the Biden administration utilizing big tech to manipulate you guys.
01:08:29.000Another great warrior, one of the new senators who's going to be awesome, SEC and crypto.
01:08:36.000You know, let's get to that one tomorrow.
01:08:38.000That's a longer story, but it's going to be nice to have people that understand crypto at the SEC. I'm pretty psyched about that.
01:08:46.000I think he'll be really good for all things crypto.
01:08:49.000And so I will see you guys tomorrow at 6 o'clock and also on Thursday at 6. So we'll go back to the regular schedule, but extra show tomorrow.
