00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.
00:00:02.580 Guaranteed human.
00:00:04.920 All right, thank you, Scott Shannon,
00:00:06.580 and thanks to all of you for being with us.
00:00:08.680 News you'll never get from the state-run legacy media mob.
00:00:12.940 Write down our toll-free telephone number.
00:00:15.860 If you'd like to be a part of the program, it's 800-941-SHAWN.
00:00:19.280 If you'd like to join us, we got a lot going on today.
00:00:23.380 Five days from now, it will be the six-month mark
00:00:28.600 that Donald Trump has been president.
00:00:30.860 Six months.
00:00:31.840 And I get that every party is a coalition party, etc., etc.,
00:00:35.800 but there's one thing that's really undeniable here,
00:00:39.300 and that is this is by far the most consequential,
00:00:47.380 transformational six-month period of any new president
00:00:53.080 by far in the modern era.
00:00:56.000 I don't know.
00:00:56.400 I think you can even maybe FDR would be an exception.
00:00:59.660 Roosevelt would be the exception, but I don't really think so.
00:01:04.360 I mean, and everything that is now happening is big.
00:01:08.820 Now, we expect the president, by the way,
00:01:10.480 is going to be talking energy independence.
00:01:12.340 He did a gaggle.
00:01:13.660 Well, I liked it so much.
00:01:15.040 I think we're going to play a part of it coming up later in the program.
00:01:17.340 We haven't fully decided yet.
00:01:18.880 We are thinking about it.
00:01:20.920 But it was really, you know,
00:01:22.440 he talked about a wide variety of topics.
00:01:24.080 Also, we have Newt Gingrich today.
00:01:25.900 We'll talk about this issue,
00:01:28.300 considering he's the great historian and professor about Donald Trump's presidency.
00:01:32.900 We have James Comer on the auto pen scandal.
00:01:35.640 And what I think is even more interesting than that,
00:01:39.020 because, look, it was Joe Biden's chief of staff who gave the final approval on Joe's auto pen.
00:01:44.720 And Joe just set up parameters for which they can offer clemency and pardons.
00:01:49.860 And the ordering of the auto pen was by the chief of staff.
00:01:53.780 That seems to me like it would probably invalidate a lot of these pardons and commutations.
00:01:59.240 We'll check in with James Comer on that issue.
00:02:02.060 We'll get an update.
00:02:02.820 And also, we have an update on the weaponization of our federal government,
00:02:07.020 which I, you know, this goes back 10 years from Russia, Russia to FISA abuse.
00:02:12.320 Everybody was warned not to use Hillary Clinton's dirty Russian disinformation dossier
00:02:17.280 before they used it to ruin Carter Page's life.
00:02:20.600 Carter Page has been on this program many times.
00:02:22.980 His life was ruined as a result of it.
00:02:25.880 You know, it turned out Carter Page was a patriot to this country
00:02:29.080 and that whenever he traveled abroad, he would come back and tell our three-letter agencies
00:02:35.720 everything that he learned and cooperated as a patriot with his country.
00:02:41.300 And this is the thanks that he gets.
00:02:43.460 And it's ironic that all the people that were warned not to use the Russian disinformation dossier
00:02:50.100 and as the basis of these FISA applications, years later, oh, knowing what we know now,
00:02:56.600 we would never have signed it.
00:02:57.940 James Comey signed three of the four of them, but he was warned in both July of 2016
00:03:02.420 and August of 2016 not to use it because it's political information
00:03:07.600 and it's unverified and then unverifiable.
00:03:09.940 And by December of 2016, they had completely debunked the dossier and Christopher Steele's let go.
00:03:19.860 And and yet he still continued to use that dossier that they knew was bogus and phony.
00:03:25.580 And that was really the Russian disinformation.
00:03:27.280 But everything in between, you know, that would include the 51 former intel agents and,
00:03:33.780 and, you know, with that had no knowledge of Hunter Biden's very real laptop,
00:03:39.480 all the earmarks of Russian disinformation.
00:03:43.780 Not one of the 51 people ever.
00:03:46.940 Not one time.
00:03:48.200 They examined the laptop.
00:03:49.500 They knew nothing about the laptop except Wink and Tony Blinken wanted a talking point
00:03:54.740 for Joe Biden going into a presidential debate with Donald Trump.
00:03:59.460 At what point do we not realize that there is something called a deep state?
00:04:05.980 And these are political operatives in high positions of power
00:04:10.140 that were trying to put cinder blocks on the scales of our elections.
00:04:14.300 And then you can take it a step further.
00:04:16.260 They're the double standard when it comes to top secret classified materials.
00:04:20.640 Hillary Clinton's servers and bleach bit and hammers and devices and SIM cards removed.
00:04:27.640 Nothing happened.
00:04:28.560 No reasonable prosecutor would prosecute, according to Mr.
00:04:31.600 Higher Honor himself, was now under investigation.
00:04:34.820 James Comey.
00:04:38.360 And, you know, what was Brennan's involvement in all of this?
00:04:41.200 What was Clapper's involvement in all of this?
00:04:43.100 This is now going to become, I think, a massive investigation
00:04:48.560 and a grand conspiracy investigation that apparently had been opened weeks ago
00:04:53.660 by Cash Patel, the FBI director, which I think is more than overdue.
00:05:00.200 Because if there are people that have been operating in ways that you abuse their power
00:05:06.760 to undermine our elections, that would be something that we need to know about
00:05:10.440 and put in place measures so that it can never happen again.
00:05:14.740 I mean, it's so ironic when you listen to radical leftist Democrats
00:05:18.500 because they're out there, you know, scared to death.
00:05:21.160 I mean, liberals are floating this idea that Donald Trump is going to tamper with
00:05:24.940 or cancel the midterm elections.
00:05:27.220 You have former MSDNC host Joy Reid and James Carville suggesting in recent weeks
00:05:33.000 that the 2026 midterms will be tampered with or outright canceled by Donald Trump.
00:05:38.400 And they're appearing during an appearance on the Jim Acosta show.
00:05:42.360 Did you know Jim Acosta had a show, Linda?
00:05:44.060 I didn't know Jim Acosta.
00:05:45.320 I thought he got fired by fake news CNN or let go or something.
00:05:48.760 I don't know what he did.
00:05:50.640 Nobody cared about what, you know, fake news Acosta has to say anyway.
00:05:54.520 But anyway, Carville told him that he thinks there's a major risk of Trump tampering.
00:05:58.700 They're just making this stuff up as they go along.
00:06:01.920 Um, and you know, I'm, I'm, I'm just watching the radical left and I'll tell you,
00:06:09.180 it is the best thing that Republicans have going for them as Donald Trump has one big issue
00:06:15.160 after another that he's willing to take on and tackle that previous presidents would never
00:06:21.100 take on, never tackle, never go near for fear that they might fail.
00:06:26.900 But Donald Trump has taken on all of it and he's proven to be successful and we're all
00:06:34.200 going to be better off because of it.
00:06:35.620 The economy is going to grow.
00:06:37.140 You know, we see what happened at the border.
00:06:39.200 We're seeing, you know, criminal, uh, immigrants, illegal, unvetted Harris, Biden, illegals and
00:06:44.160 Mayorkas illegals being thrown out every single day, you know, and then what are Democrats
00:06:48.960 doing?
00:06:49.300 Democratic leaders in the house, they're struggling about whether or not they should, you know,
00:06:54.140 support mom, Donnie, you know, the, the guy, you know, global antifada himself, you know,
00:07:01.320 Hakeem Jeffries is going to meet with what else does Hakeem Jeffries need to know about
00:07:06.460 this guy that he's going to give him the time of day.
00:07:09.500 And this is the interesting part of this is the democratic leadership is scared to death
00:07:16.000 of Zoran Momdani.
00:07:18.420 They're scared to death of AOC.
00:07:21.120 They're scared to death of the squad.
00:07:23.280 They're scared to death of Jasmine Crockett.
00:07:26.560 They're scared to death of grandpa Bernie, the, the radical socialist he is.
00:07:32.680 Uh, I mean, in the case of Momdani, you're looking at Marxist Momdani cause it's basically
00:07:37.480 to each according to their need from each, according to their ability.
00:07:40.720 Pocahontas is another one.
00:07:42.580 And, and basically the leadership is non-existent.
00:07:46.840 Chuck Schumer is minority leader in name only.
00:07:49.780 Hakeem Jeffries is minority leader in name only, and they are literally held hostage if
00:07:57.080 they, or they're just complicit and agree with this because this is madness where they're
00:08:02.080 taking the party.
00:08:02.840 Even Rom Rombo dead fish admits that his party is less popular than Elon Musk in a scathing
00:08:09.860 critique.
00:08:10.900 You know, Obama pushing Democrats to toughen up.
00:08:14.180 Good luck with this, by the way, is imploring Democrats to toughen up at a private fundraiser
00:08:18.400 in New Jersey at his party's attempts to rebuild their coalition under Donald Trump's second
00:08:23.660 term.
00:08:23.940 I think it's going to require a little bit of less navel gazing and a little more, little
00:08:29.200 less whining and being in fetal positions.
00:08:31.980 And it's going to require Democrats to just toughen up.
00:08:35.240 He said, okay, this is, this is Democrats toughening up because now the democratic leaders
00:08:41.280 in the house have, you know, they're, they're fighting their radical base.
00:08:45.320 And there's one, you know, they're, they're trying to quell one impeachment push after
00:08:50.860 another by rank and file radicals that control their party.
00:08:55.380 And during a six week stretch during this year so far, house Democrats twice were confronted
00:09:01.680 with impeachment votes forced by their own rank and file members that had zero chance of
00:09:07.100 passing.
00:09:07.880 And by the way, this, this ought to be a canary in the coal mine.
00:09:10.900 And if you don't think that the 2026 elections are going to matter now, if you like the direction
00:09:18.020 of where the country is headed under Donald Trump, again, we're, we're five days away.
00:09:23.680 It'll be six months into Trump's presidency.
00:09:26.060 This being his second term, it's going to be six months.
00:09:30.860 And, you know, you think a little bit more than a year ago, an assassin's bullet came within
00:09:35.140 a millimeter of taking president Trump's life.
00:09:38.380 One millimeter.
00:09:39.100 I mean, uh, that's how close that was.
00:09:43.580 And there wouldn't be any Donald Trump.
00:09:45.500 I remember watching it live.
00:09:47.860 I remember exactly where I was.
00:09:50.220 I remember exactly the moment this happened.
00:09:53.340 I remember when he stood up wondering if he would just go crashing down again when I saw
00:09:59.280 the blood all over his face.
00:10:01.040 And I was feverishly texting that I people that I knew were around him at the time that
00:10:07.660 were there and not not long thereafter.
00:10:10.840 I got word that he was OK.
00:10:13.240 And then, of course, I had I had breakfast the next morning, you know, one morning with
00:10:18.140 Steve Whitcoff.
00:10:18.920 And then the incident in Trump International took place.
00:10:22.760 And literally, I left breakfast with him.
00:10:25.140 An hour later, I got a phone call.
00:10:26.460 You're not going to believe this.
00:10:27.500 They just tried to kill the president again.
00:10:29.780 And, you know, the Secret Service were now discovering they had 10 days notice and they
00:10:34.620 didn't do anything about it.
00:10:35.620 They didn't share the information with local law enforcement, which they should have.
00:10:39.620 And there needs to be institutional reform.
00:10:41.920 And then we were lied to about a slope proof that wasn't sloped.
00:10:45.480 But with all that saying, you know, look at what has happened in six months.
00:10:51.100 Reflect, you know, be grateful for what has happened.
00:10:55.400 And, you know, not only did you ensure that the president win all seven swing states and
00:11:01.900 win the popular vote, but his policies and his actions, one is bigger than the next.
00:11:09.180 I mean, we now see, you know, after 12, 20 million people, whatever the number is, we
00:11:13.680 don't even know the number with gotaways.
00:11:16.480 But now our border is secure.
00:11:18.600 Now they're in the process of deporting criminal illegals, murderers, rapists, other violent
00:11:25.080 criminals, cartel members, gang members, drug dealers.
00:11:28.000 You know, we have Iranian assassination squads in the country.
00:11:32.420 We have known terrorists in the country.
00:11:34.360 Finding them all is going to be like finding needles in haystacks, but they're working hard.
00:11:39.200 I have news today that 1,300 new people were apprehended.
00:11:43.880 And, you know, look what the president has done with inflation.
00:11:47.480 You know, look at the largest tax cut in American history.
00:11:51.540 Look at the fact that working men and women are the biggest beneficiaries of this tax cut.
00:11:57.260 I mean, the fact that we have no tax on tips and overtime helping older Americans out with
00:12:04.400 Social Security, but, you know, at least beginning the effort to, you know, to codify the houses
00:12:10.820 in the Senate actually is actually set for a procedural vote as early as today to codify
00:12:16.740 doge cuts into reality.
00:12:19.860 That's a really good thing.
00:12:21.540 I know Democrats are out there lying about Medicaid.
00:12:23.920 It's just not true.
00:12:24.980 You know, if Republicans didn't deal with this entitlement, it would have ballooned by
00:12:31.200 $1.5 trillion.
00:12:32.940 That would be insolvency.
00:12:34.960 You know, under the new law, Medicaid remains on track to spend $450 billion more than we're
00:12:43.640 spending now, a 7% increase in spite of Democrats claiming that there are major cuts taking place.
00:12:51.240 No, Republicans are not stripping coverage from vulnerable groups that the entitlement was created to serve.
00:12:58.460 Pregnant women, the blind, the disabled, the elderly, and the like.
00:13:02.840 And yet, but they are projecting that 1.4 million illegal immigrants are beneficiaries of Medicare.
00:13:10.300 I'm sorry, Medicaid, and that 4.8 able-bodied people now are going to be subject to community engagement requirements.
00:13:19.340 There ought to be some type of work or volunteer requirement.
00:13:22.300 They put that in place.
00:13:23.960 Federal law bars Medicaid from covering illegal immigrants.
00:13:27.320 But for years, states have used these workarounds to do it.
00:13:31.200 House Republicans are showcasing they can take, you know, they can take control of this stuff.
00:13:36.060 You know, but if you actually look at all the success, not just at the border, not just at the economy, not just with, you know, taking care of working men and women.
00:13:48.120 You know, you know, we're dealing with many of the messes that were left behind by the last administration.
00:13:54.100 Iran is off the table as a possible nuclear threat.
00:13:57.240 The president is working as hard as humanly possible.
00:14:02.480 Putin couldn't be negotiated with.
00:14:04.260 Now he's getting tougher.
00:14:05.940 Okay.
00:14:06.520 He gave him a chance.
00:14:07.880 They gave Iran a chance.
00:14:09.880 You know, but we have, you know, so much more work to do.
00:14:13.080 What the president's doing with energy.
00:14:14.820 He's in Pennsylvania today talking about energy.
00:14:17.380 What the president is doing, $10 trillion in commitments.
00:14:20.560 There's a story out today that, you know, Apple is now going to spend another 500, a half a billion dollars, 500 million, uh, uh, 500 million dollars investment in a U.S. mine for rare earths.
00:14:34.420 We're going to have manufacturing for automobiles, pharmaceuticals, semiconductor chips, rare earths, magnets, you know, things that we've been far too dependent on other countries for, you know, and the world, we're going to rebuild our military.
00:14:47.780 We're going to rebuild the next generation of weaponry.
00:14:50.720 Every one of these things is a big deal.
00:14:53.240 Reason number 46 to get a Nissan.
00:14:55.540 Features.
00:14:56.360 Especially the ones you get with the 2025 Nissan Kicks Play.
00:15:00.400 Integrated Apple CarPlay.
00:15:01.920 A spacious interior.
00:15:03.340 Advanced safety features.
00:15:04.760 And more room in your budget.
00:15:06.320 Because it's the most affordable new vehicle in Quebec.

00:15:23.320 All right.
00:15:23.580 25 to the top of the hour.
00:15:25.420 800-941-SHAWN.
00:15:26.740 A number you want to be a part of the program.
00:15:29.020 Look, small business is the backbone of America.
00:15:32.860 Uh, small business.
00:15:34.240 You know, you provide a service, jobs to your neighbors.
00:15:37.020 You lift up your community.
00:15:38.740 You sponsor the Little League team.
00:15:40.760 You care about your customers.
00:15:42.380 You get involved in your community.
00:15:44.400 But when it comes to the services required to run your business, big tech, well, they kind of give you second-rate treatment.
00:15:51.700 And I'm talking about the big carriers, AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile.
00:15:55.700 You know, you'll wait on hold for hours.
00:15:57.500 We've all experienced that.
00:15:58.820 Only to talk to a C-team from overseas.
00:16:01.520 And you can't even understand you.
00:16:03.460 And Pure Talk, my wireless company, a veteran-owned company, uh, champion small business.
00:16:10.540 And what they offer small businesses, white glove service with your own dedicated account representative from the U.S.
00:16:18.360 You get the same exact cell tower, same 5G network as the big carriers.
00:16:24.360 And, you know, best of all, businesses like yours are saving a fortune every month.
00:16:28.740 The average family that switches to Pure Talk is saving over $1,000 a year for the exact same service.
00:16:34.220 Oh, for companies, there's a landscape company in Kansas City.
00:16:37.160 They have 12 lines.
00:16:38.400 They cut their bill from $757 a month to $387 a month.
00:16:43.100 That's almost 50% off.
00:16:44.860 Or an appraisal company in Washington with 11 lines cut their bill from $507 to $255 a month.
00:16:52.940 And, look, Pure Talk business could save you 50% on your bill.
00:16:56.720 You deserve better.
00:16:58.340 And Pure Talk provides the choice, the option that you never had before.
00:17:02.180 The switch is simple, fast, and easy.
00:17:04.320 You dial pound 250, say the keyword, save now.
00:17:06.860 Pound 250, keyword, save now.
00:17:08.820 Make the switch to the carrier that will make you a priority and offer you concierge service.
00:17:15.340 And I just told you about Adam Schiff.
00:17:19.180 Very interesting what's happening with him.
00:17:21.680 Linda, correct me if I'm wrong.
00:17:22.880 He got the preemptive pardon.
00:17:24.600 I thought it was for other reasons.
00:17:27.300 But maybe this mortgage issue is the reason.
00:17:30.320 I don't know yet.
00:17:31.420 We're going to do a deep dive into it.
00:17:33.200 We'll get the answers.
00:17:34.140 As we speak, the president is gathering CEOs for this unprecedented faith economy meeting to renew U.S. spirituality, financial business, and charitable work.
00:17:49.160 Also, the president meeting on energy in Pennsylvania as we speak and AI and how that's connected to it, which I'm really not that sure about.
00:17:58.300 Anyway, the president also allocating $40 million to create a National Garden of American Heroes featuring statues of 250 iconic figures as a patriotic counter to monumental removals that have taken place around the country.
00:18:16.680 And, you know, a planned opening for the end of his presidency and a final location to be determined.
00:18:21.600 That's good.
00:18:23.540 We've got a lot of progress going on.
00:18:25.480 We'll get into that in a second.
00:18:26.580 And Mike Waltz sitting through this ridiculous Senate hearing.
00:18:29.680 It's just such a waste of time.
00:18:32.160 And, you know, we're watching a lot of a lot of new news being created every single day, every minute, every hour of every day.
00:18:38.280 And a lot of it's very, very good news.
00:18:41.140 And this is this is the you know, we're almost at the six month mark of the Trump presidency.
00:18:46.400 Now, the Supreme Court, on top of every other success, allows the Trump administration's mass firings at the Department of Education.
00:18:54.040 Why is this important?
00:18:55.220 It's important if you care about your kid's education.
00:18:58.480 Well, unless you're in my free state of Florida, they have been rated one or two in the country in terms of the top public schools in America.
00:19:07.080 And it says it's a state with very low taxes.
00:19:10.800 How is that possible?
00:19:12.180 And all these states that spend massive amounts of money per capita per student on education.
00:19:17.460 You know, how is it that, you know, we spend more per capita per student on education as a country.
00:19:24.920 And we come in 37th in terms of math proficiency, reading proficiency or 40th, depending on what the year is.
00:19:32.940 It's insane.
00:19:34.340 The Department of Education has failed.
00:19:36.740 This unholy alliance between teachers unions and the Democratic Party has been a disaster.
00:19:41.760 And President Trump is breaking this stranglehold with the Supreme Court agreeing yesterday to pause a lower court order that required the Department of Education to reinstate nearly 1,400 employees who had been laid off while proceedings over the Trump administration's effort to dismantle the agency to continue.
00:20:01.240 And they granted a request from the Trump administration to lift the injunction issued by a U.S. district judge, which blocked the mass layoffs of the Department of Education.
00:20:12.340 Now, you know, you can't fail more spectacularly.
00:20:16.820 You know, in a best case scenario, you're looking at institutionalized mediocrity overall.
00:20:23.300 In a worst case scenario, it is institutionalized failure.
00:20:27.720 And let me tell you what education is.
00:20:29.620 Education is a ladder.
00:20:32.120 It's the ladder to the success.
00:20:33.860 It's the ladder to the American dream.
00:20:36.180 It's a ladder to, you know, becoming financially independent.
00:20:40.240 It's a ladder to not being dependent on government.
00:20:43.000 It's a ladder that will allow you to aspire and achieve that dream.
00:20:48.800 What does the average person want?
00:20:50.320 We're all the same.
00:20:51.880 I think most people want a nice house, decent house in a safe neighborhood with good schools for their kids.
00:20:59.620 They want a nice car to drive.
00:21:01.960 You know, they want a big screen TV.
00:21:03.860 They want to be able to go out to eat on a weekend with their family, not worry what the cost is going to be occasionally, not even every weekend, you know, and they want to put away money for their retirement, maybe money that they can pass on to future generations.
00:21:16.840 It's not complicated.
00:21:18.220 This is why the president's economic plan is so profound.
00:21:23.260 This is why $10 trillion in committed investments in manufacturing actually matter.
00:21:30.480 And there was so many predictions of doom and gloom, you know, by the economic sector and Democrats.
00:21:37.500 Well, you know, I've looked at the news today in the Wall Street Journal.
00:21:41.000 America's biggest bank said it said today that the U.S. economy showed signs of resilience despite escalating threats on global trade, a sign that American corporations and consumers are still charging ahead.
00:21:55.360 Jamie Dimon, JP Morgan Chase reported better than expected results for the second quarter and showed few signs of slowing down with all the banks, underlying businesses, increasing revenue and profit.
00:22:08.440 The outlook for the U.S. economy has improved as President Trump has delayed and modified his planned tariffs.
00:22:14.820 No, he made he's making trade deals with countries like Vietnam and Great Britain and even China and other countries are in the works as well.
00:22:26.720 And Jamie Dimon, who's repeatedly warned that there's widespread complacency among investors about the risk to the economy,
00:22:33.500 acknowledged that there had been positive developments and his bank's economists have dropped their call for a recession.
00:22:39.880 Oh, nice of him to jump on board.
00:22:42.140 There was the doom and gloom crowd I mentioned earlier.
00:22:45.480 I'll talk more about it later.
00:22:46.680 Apple now backing President Trump's, you know, plan to acquire rare earth minerals.
00:22:52.820 They're they're investing a half a billion dollars on top of the half a billion they're investing in Texas so that we manufacture our phones here.
00:23:01.340 I mean, ten trillion dollars in investment coupled with, you know, what is incalculable impact or an economy.
00:23:09.880 We can be an energy rich country.
00:23:12.100 This is what the president is talking about in Pennsylvania.
00:23:14.120 Even as we speak, we remember, let's dip into it really quick here.
00:23:17.520 Here's what the president's saying.
00:23:18.740 Trillion dollars has never been anything like that in history.
00:23:22.120 You can go for years and they didn't have numbers like that.
00:23:25.300 And if you look at the last administration, you had negative numbers, you didn't have positive numbers.
00:23:31.800 You're going in the wrong direction.
00:23:33.840 But we have the hottest country and we we're going to keep it that way.
00:23:37.800 Today's commitments are ensuring that the future is going to be designed, built and made right here in Pennsylvania and right here in Pittsburgh.
00:23:45.680 And I have to say right here in the United States of America.
00:23:49.180 Now, let me explain what the president is talking about here.
00:23:53.780 That is a 90 billion dollar A.I. and energy investment just for the just for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
00:24:02.420 It's pretty amazing.
00:24:04.260 By the way, even CBS News has had to admit that millions of car buyers in the U.S.
00:24:09.580 are going to get tax relief thanks to this, you know, big, beautiful bill that was signed into law on July 4th by the president.
00:24:16.260 And then there's the myth that somehow if you cut taxes, that's going to hurt the economy.
00:24:20.900 No, it doesn't hurt the economy.
00:24:23.100 The reality is revenues increase.
00:24:25.820 Well, they're they're they're increasing for a lot of reasons.
00:24:29.540 Number one, people are going to have opportunities for higher paying career jobs when 10 trillion in manufacturing is unleashed with energy being unleashed.
00:24:38.240 That's other high paying career jobs for Americans by deporting criminal illegals in this country.
00:24:45.040 That means less competition for these high paying career jobs.
00:24:49.040 Even the CBO is now forecasting that Trump's tariffs will generate a massive additional three trillion dollars in federal revenue over the next coming years, which they didn't want to factor in before.
00:25:02.400 Now, the president put out today on truth, the Fed should cut rates by three points.
00:25:08.100 We have very low inflation.
00:25:09.800 That's a trillion dollars a year that would be saved.
00:25:13.300 There is no reason except for pure political purposes that Jerome Powell is is refusing to see even the reality that Jamie Dimon and other critics of the president's economic plan have been pointing out.
00:25:30.780 The Fed chair, you know, Trump called him a knucklehead, says interest rate should be below one percent.
00:25:36.060 All right. Maybe not that low, but instead of seven percent, how about we go down to three and a half percent?
00:25:42.120 I mean, if you're looking at the one area in our economy that is lagging, the one area it's in home construction and people said not people are not going to give up their two point nine, three, three and a half, four percent, 30 year fixed rate mortgage.
00:25:57.760 And move to a different home, which they'd like to do.
00:26:00.700 Many of them. If you're going to get a mortgage at seven percent, then you're paying like twice the amount.
00:26:07.220 Your labor statistics, you know, inflation just ticked slightly higher in June, but nothing to be concerned about.
00:26:15.280 But America has power to lead the A.I. revolution.
00:26:18.980 That's what the president is talking about in Pennsylvania, even right now as we speak, and to leverage natural gas for powering the next tech revolution, which is critical.
00:26:28.480 He's thinking ahead. You know, we hear energy rich countries.
00:26:32.500 Why can't America be an energy rich country?
00:26:35.840 By the way, Tom Cotton has introduced legislation to end birthright citizenship, which I think is a good idea.
00:26:41.520 I went over all the incidents now yesterday, you know, all over the country, a seven hundred percent increase in attacks against ICE agents.
00:26:51.400 You have a pro-democratic group.
00:26:53.420 We discovered an activist group raising more than seven hundred and fifty grand for a mobile response teams to confront ICE during raids.
00:27:02.720 All these people need to be arrested.
00:27:05.040 All of them, because that's called obstruction of justice.
00:27:08.760 And by the way, that includes, you know, money's being put aside in New York by Kathy Hochul.
00:27:14.920 I mean, why New York continues to vote for her?
00:27:17.760 I really don't know.
00:27:19.740 Makes no sense.
00:27:21.520 You know, or the mayor of Los Angeles.
00:27:24.140 Oh, we got to give money to.
00:27:26.240 You know, people that that Donald Trump is rounding.
00:27:30.040 He's enforcing the law.
00:27:31.300 You know, these ICE roundups, you know, just came out today.
00:27:34.980 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested one thousand three hundred sixty one illegals in the Houston area in June, including individuals previously convicted of.
00:27:46.220 Listen closely.
00:27:47.280 Hijacking an airplane, homicide, sexual assault and much more.
00:27:52.560 Again, I repeat myself.
00:27:54.780 It's not a matter of if it's when America gets attacked because they've allowed known terrorists in the country, but also murderers, rapists, other violent criminals, cartel members, gang members, drug dealers.
00:28:07.100 And this is now the cause of love of Democrats.
00:28:09.660 The majority of legal illegals in this country are currently being held by ICE are criminals.
00:28:17.060 This, according to ICE data, NBC News reporting, has been a wave of recent media reports that now claim over 70 percent of illegals who recently have been arrested by ICE are not criminals.
00:28:29.060 In fact, according to the most recent data, the opposite is true.
00:28:32.560 That, you know, close to 60 percent of illegals have either been convicted of crimes or face pending criminal charges.
00:28:39.860 Whoopsie daisy.
00:28:40.860 You know, don't let the truth get in in in the way of a good, you know, political story.
00:28:45.840 Feds are charging to anti-ICE activists with shooting the shooting attack at a Colorado immigration detention facility.
00:28:52.740 You have one ICE employee brought to an emergency room after alleged doxing in California.
00:28:59.120 Is anyone going to ask, you know, Gavin Newsom from the United Socialist Utopia of California about this?
00:29:06.260 You know, Gavin thinks he's going to run for president.
00:29:07.960 You think one of the you think some of the ads that are going to be run are going to be victims of of the illegal immigrants that have been granted sanctuary state status that have murdered people and raped people and committed violent crimes against people?
00:29:23.860 You think those are going to be ads if, in fact, that he decides to go down this road?
00:29:27.940 It seems like he's thinking about it because it's obvious that, you know, going to it's a pretty good sign if you're out there going to South Carolina the way he did.
00:29:40.160 I don't think he went there for the nice weather in the summer.
00:29:42.500 It gets pretty hot in South Carolina in the summer.
00:29:45.380 But I mean, you know, those are all things he's going to have to answer for.
00:29:49.920 We're going to get into the latest auto pen admission.
00:29:52.900 I mean, Joe Biden basically, you know, defended his last minute pardons to the New York Times of all places.
00:30:00.700 It should have been a layup interview, you know, but he even said, you know, he had originally claimed he made every decision himself when it came to the pardon and commutations.
00:30:11.540 But then he said he didn't explicitly agree to each and every clemency winner.
00:30:16.280 He said, we're talking about a lot of people, which is actually a big part of it.
00:30:20.340 The warrants commuted the sentences of four thousand inmates in total, including child killers and several mass murderers on death row.
00:30:29.400 But now we're finding out that, well, he laid out criteria and that it was his chief of staff.
00:30:34.720 We'll get into that later with our friend James Comer is going to be on the program.
00:30:39.460 And by the way, what the president is now doing when it comes to Vladimir Putin, you know, he's given the guy every opportunity for peace and he's fed up.
00:30:48.820 And he's given him 50 days, a deadline, peace or face economic ruin.
00:30:54.780 Obviously angry that after every opportunity has been given to Vladimir that he's chosen not to take it.
00:31:02.740 Eighty five U.S. senators are now signing on to a sanctions bill and there will be massive tariffs put on any country that buys cheap energy from Vladimir Putin in Russia.
00:31:13.760 And Trump's decision to spend the billions worth of weapons.
00:31:17.880 Now, he's selling the weapons to NATO.
00:31:20.940 NATO can then decide to give it to Ukraine.
00:31:23.380 Then we're not fighting a proxy war anymore and we're not bankrupting our country in the meantime.
00:31:29.320 However, it is standing up to this unbridled, you know, evil aggression of Putin even targeting innocent civilians.
00:31:37.200 So I think, you know, I think it's it's it's it's past time now.
00:31:41.820 He'd been given every opportunity in the world to join the free world and get more territory and get concessions.
00:31:49.120 But playing nice with Putin has proved to be futile.
00:31:52.340 So you go to plan B.
00:31:53.780 What's plan B?
00:31:54.800 Get tough.
00:31:56.060 Same thing he did with Iran.
00:31:58.040 This is an iHeart podcast.
00:32:00.880 Guaranteed human.
00:32:01.680 Guaranteed human.
