  Speaker 1: 250 years of this great country and counting. We've got
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: a lot to get to, including that incredible speech that
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: the President of the United States gave this weekend and
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: that amazing, that historic, that Guinness World Records setting fireworks display. Unbelievable.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: We've got all the details coming up on this edition
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: of Vince. Got updates for you on what's going on
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: in Washington, the effort to get the Save America Act passed. Yes,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: that continues. And of course, our pressure on that subject continues.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: And did the president intervene in order to right an
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: injustice in the World Cup? Well, it's the cause of
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: controversy this morning. We've got all the details all ahead
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: coming up on this edition of Vince. It's so good

  Speaker 1: me sleep so well. Improving your sleep can help feel
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: like a huge, overwhelming project. But honestly, lots of people
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: aren't sleeping poorly because of their mattress. They're sleeping on
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: old bedding. That's often the case. The fastest, simplest way
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: to upgrade your sleep is upgrading what actually touches you

  Speaker 1: your bed feels. So when we first started sleeping on
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Bowling Branch sheets, we could feel the quality right away.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: They're smooth, they're still breathable, and somehow they get softer

  Speaker 2: Boom.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was an incredible event. That was an incredible
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: event this weekend in Washington, D.C. Now, I did not
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: go into the city to observe it. I stayed home
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: in Northern Virginia. We had friends over, and we had
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: a wonderful time. I bought a bunch of overpriced, you know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: roadside stand fireworks, and I just launched them from the
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: street in front of my house. It was really great.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: And we enjoyed that. Did a lot of grilling this weekend.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Bought way too many hamburgers and hot dogs. I've got endless,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: so if you want some, come on over. It's been great.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: It's just been really nice. We spent a whole bunch
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: of great time together. But one of the cool things
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: about Saturday— and being in Northern Virginia, is all of
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the planes were flying over my house. All of the
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: amazing military planes were flying over my house, including, if
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: you're watching here with me, rumble.com slash Vince on the
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: video version of the show, you can see here, this
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: is the beginning of the video. That's when I got
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: the camera on and got it up in the air
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: as Air Force One was going over the top of
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: my house. Holy crap, there it goes, Air Force One,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: and all of these great military planes.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Look at this. That B-2 bomber going over. Bunch of
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: pixels deleted from the sky.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: There's another one.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: How neat is that?
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: Right over the top of the house.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Anyway, so it was plane after plane after plane.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: I can't identify all of them. Some of you are
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: going to be much better at this than I am.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: We did have a great Air Force friend with us
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: who was identifying each of the planes as they flew
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: over for me. It was very cool. But there they go,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: there they go, there they go. And then I'll fast
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: forward to the jets. Look at that. Look at that
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: formation coming over the top of the house. So cool. Anyway,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: that was really neat to see. And that just kept
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: happening all day long. It was just like every time
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you start hearing them, Get outside. Everyone runs outside to
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: see the planes. Pretty cool. Very, very cool. Now, the
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: president of the United States did a great job. They
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: had a weather delay on on Saturday's event. The weather
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: was kind of touch and go, let's say, in Washington, D.C.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: And they ended up with some rain and then it
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: broke and they were finally able to get everybody out.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: onto the stage and conduct the event. The music was beautiful.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: And the president, he did it in only a way
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: that he could. Thank God he's president and not Kamala Harris.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Look at here, President Trump rolled out a bunch of
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: historic American flags, took them out of the government's storage
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: or wherever these flags are kept, and showed things like
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: a flag from the Battle of Saratoga, dating back to
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the founding of our country. Look here, cut one, watch.
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: From the beginning, we were a nation that lived by
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: the motto, victory or death, and live free or die.
• 5:07
  Speaker 7: One out of every 100 Americans gave their lives in
• 5:15
  Speaker 7: the fight for independence to remind us of who these
• 5:20
  Speaker 7: heroes were and what they gave us.
• 5:22
  Speaker 8: We are honored to have here tonight in the heart
• 5:25
  Speaker 8: of our nation's capital, one of the very first American
• 5:29
  Speaker 8: flags ever to exist.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: Dating back to 1777, it bears the 13 stars and
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: 13 stripes of the 13 states that declared independence on
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: the 4th of July.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Amazing. I like how the stars are kind of crooked there.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I like that.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: There it is.
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: This was the flag that flew victorious at Saratoga. And
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: these are the real deals, too. These are the real flags.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: These are flags that have seen a lot. These were
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: the stars and stripes that flew triumphant when the British waved.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: The white flag of surrender at Yorktown, that was a
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: big surrender. Nobody thought that was possible. They were the
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: greatest power of the world, and they surrendered, and that
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: was the beginning.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was really good. I mean, and then he
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: showed flag after flag after flag, marking different moments in
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: American history. He gave a flag that was given to
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Teddy Roosevelt. He showed that that that marked the Spanish-American
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: War and the Rough Riders. He showed a flag that
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: flew over the Brooklyn Bridge. Just amazing. Just taking us
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: on a tour through American history. He also gave us
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: a preview of what he's going to do in the midterms.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Did you guys pick it up, Chad? Did you pick
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: up the midterm messaging that President Trump was using during
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: this big America 250 celebration? Here he goes.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Watch.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Cut to is President Trump rips the commies. And he
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: says America will never be a communist country. Watch this.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: We approach this magnificent anniversary. We see our American identity
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: under a renewed attack. A generation after we fought and
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: won the Cold War against the menace of communism. There
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: is now a resurgence of the communist menace in our land,
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: including from newcomers to our country who embrace ideas totally
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: opposed to our way of life and our great success.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: These are not mere political disagreements like differences over taxes
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: or regulations. Communism is a mortal threat to American liberty.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: It is the greatest threat to our country, including World
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: War One. World War II, Pearl Harbor, or even 9-11.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: We're not going to let this happen to us. Believe me,
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: we're not letting it happen.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: All right, that's perfect. So that's the president throughout the weekend.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: He was doing this for both in North Dakota, as
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: well as at that big event in Washington, D.C. on
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: America's birthday. Here he is saying that in America, we
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: cut communism out fast. And he talked about our great
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: warriors who've been fighting communism. Cut three, watch this.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: The American system and the communist system has never worked.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: Our warriors did not fight communism on battlefields across the
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: world only to have that menace rear its ugly head
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: right back here in America. We're not going to let
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: it happen. We'd like to stop a threat like that
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: immediately and before it begins. It's like a cancer. You
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: got to cut it out. You got to cut it
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: out fast.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: So this gets directly to what I think you and
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: I can confidently say is going to be the midterm
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: message here, that we have to defeat the radical left. Look,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: the reality is you and I have had a lot
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: of conversations, and this is just between me and you
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: and the many, many people who watch this program. But
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: we've had a lot of conversations about the shortcomings of
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Republican elected officials. In fact, we'll continue to talk a
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: little bit about that today because we desperately want the
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Save America Act to be passed, and it hasn't happened yet.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: So that pressure needs to continue. There's no question that
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: there are deficiencies among Republican elected officials. But when it
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: comes to the midterms, we've got to defeat the Democrats.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: And not just the midterms, but beyond. We have to
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: defeat these Democrats. Because if you think it sucks when
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Republicans have power and they fail to use it to
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: our benefit, it really sucks when Democrats have power and
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: they actively use it to our detriment. That's a massive problem.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: And we have to stop them. So the President of
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: the United States... is promising a message of aggression. One
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: is like, we're going to stop these guys. These guys
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: are going to be very destructive to the country if
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: they get power. And we have to defeat communism as
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: it wells up, especially inside of the Democrat Party. They
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: have all sorts of battles going on right now in
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: their ranks, a civil war in that party about just
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: how radical they're going to become. We have to stop
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: all of that. And so the president going into these
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: midterms is clearly laying out what the message is. The
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: other piece is that we've got the midterm convention coming up.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: We just got the announcement this past week. For those
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: of you in Dallas, Texas, well, it's coming. Producer Jim
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: was not excited about this because he wanted to travel.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: He's a Dallas guy. He was like, I said, Jim,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I texted him. I was like, Jim, look, the convention's
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: coming to your house. And he's like, no, I wanted
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: to travel. Well, now he's got a chance to stay
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: there and I'll travel to him. We'll probably travel to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: him for that Dallas convention. It'll be great. We'll have
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: a midterm convention and the president is going to stay
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: on this message. that we have to defeat the radical left.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And the president is going to be dragging the Republican
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Party straight across the finish line. Whatever he has to
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: do in order to get midterm victories here, grow the margins,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: and be able to get his agenda actually passed through
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: the House and the Senate. We need more people. We
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: need more backup. We need people to show up who
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: can actually support the Trump agenda. That's what he's fighting for.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: So my guess is you probably detected this too as
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: you're listening to the speech. You're like, wait a second,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: there's a political theme here. And it's definitely about standing
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: up for the greatness of our country and fighting these
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: enemies that we've seen far too often, especially communism. Here
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: it is in the United States. We have to defeat
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: it here. That's the message. An amazing display by the president. Also,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: the president did honor these great war veterans who were there.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: What an historic event this was. They had war veterans
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: that they brought in. The White House had arranged for
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: World War II vets. We're talking guys in their hundreds.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: You had one hero, legend, 107 years old. We had
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: war veterans from Normandy, from D-Day. We had war veterans
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: from Iwo Jima. from Chosin Reservoir, from the frozen Chosin
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: of the United States Marine Corps. Just incredible to see
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: these heroes on stage. The 107-year-old veteran was standing on
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: his own two feet. He looked healthier than Joe Biden.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: He looked great. And it was the kind of thing,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: you see these guys, and it just makes you well
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: up with pride. And I just had a tear in
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: my eyes. I see them on stage there Here's some
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: video of them watching the fireworks display. This is cut five.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Watching the fireworks display after the president concluded speaking. Watch this.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Just amazing. They're watching from their own memorial, the World
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: War II memorial. An amazing display. Now, first of all,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: I think that's the most epic view of the night,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: just to see America's war heroes appreciating these great fireworks
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: going up. It's a very late night, by the way.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: It's like midnight when all of these fireworks are going up,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: and there they are, 100 years old, watching the fireworks
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: at a memorial that's dedicated to the memory of them
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: and the sacrifices that were made by so many of
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: our countrymen that did not come home from that war.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: God bless them. God bless them. They really are the
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: men who have made America great. If you ever get
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: a chance to meet one of the last living World
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: War II veterans, and with each passing year, there are
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: fewer and fewer, thank them for saving the world. Thank them. Amazing.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: And by the way, speaking of thanking people for their service,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: if you meet a Vietnam veteran, welcome them home. Welcome
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: them home. They were not welcomed the way they should
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: have been when they came home. You can welcome them
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: home now and honor them for their service. You know,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: it was really cool to see the fireworks. This audience
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: knew in advance of everybody else that this was going
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: to be historic because Doug Burgum told us earlier this year,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: the interior secretary exclusively told me on this program that
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: they were going to be setting a world record for
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: a fireworks display. They were going for the biggest fireworks
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: show in world history. And sure enough, they did it. 850,000
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: munitions fired up into the air. A beautiful display for
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: America's 250th birthday. Here's a time-lapse video. Check this out.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Cut four. A 60-second time-lapse video of the fireworks going
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: up over Washington, D.C. It was a 40-minute show, and
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: it's been condensed here into 60 seconds. Watch this.
• 14:52
  Speaker 6: Look at that.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: It's just the crazy thing about the fireworks display is
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: every second of the show would qualify as the grand
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: finale to any other fireworks show anywhere. And the grand
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: finale would typically just be like kind of one or
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: two locations from which they'd be firing it up. Look
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: at all of these locations. They had barges that stretched
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: the Potomac River. You know, most Independence Days, the Potomac
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: River is open to boat traffic so people can sit
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: in their boats and watch the fireworks go up on
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: the 4th of July. This year was different. They shut
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: the river down because there was no space for the
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: boats to safely be out there because they needed to
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: put barges across the entire Washington, D.C. skyline to accommodate
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: the legendary fireworks display, which was so cool to see.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: It was unbelievable. Look at the end of the fireworks show.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: We were watching at home, like so many of you.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: And I remember, I think my wife asked, she's like,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: what happened? Is everything okay? Because the entire image on
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: our television screen, it was a whiteout. You couldn't see
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: anything because there were so many explosives going off all
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: at the same time at the very end. It just
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: looked like everything had exploded. And actually it was just
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: a wonderful and explosive conclusion to the program. So many
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: great views. Here's Mike Lee capturing this. I think he
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: was on the Virginia side. Look at that. Just look
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: at these fireworks going up.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Amazing.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Just amazing. God bless America.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Amazing.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: And, you know, it's funny. There was a New York
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Times reporter, of course, who was very upset by all
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: of this. Her name is Lulu. Her name is Lulu.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Lulu.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: I think Lulu Navarro. And she posted this. Why are we?
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: She was upset about the jets flying over D.C. She said,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: why are we having so many jets scorching over D.C.?
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: It's nerve wracking. I get 250 celebrations, but it feels
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: like the apocalypse is Yeah, there were a lot of
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: libs bitching and moaning about the fireworks, complaining about the
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: smell of the fireworks. Oh, no, you can see the
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: smog of the fireworks the next day. Why are there jets?
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: I feel so scared. Why are you feeling scared? They're
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: on your side. I feel great about it. I feel
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: wonderful about it. I actually kind of like the smell
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: of fireworks, to be honest with you.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Kind of enjoyed it. We had the fireworks in the
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: garage and we would walk out of the garage before
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: we lit them up on Saturday. You smell kind of
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: the powder, the black powder from the fireworks. And you're like, man,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: it kind of smells good. I don't know. I don't know.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Maybe I'm just weird.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: I liked it.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: You launch them. They smell great. They look great. So
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: cool to see the jets. I'm like, those guys are
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: on our side. Imagine being any other country and seeing
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: those jets. Then you've got something to worry about. Americans
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: seeing those jets, it's a security blanket. It feels good.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: It feels very good. I don't know what she's whining about.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: It's remarkable. We did have some amazing images of those
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: planes flying, by the way. Here's cut eight over Washington, D.C.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Not just the video that I shot. Watch this. Right
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: over the monuments. Eric Daugherty posting this to X, as
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: he so often does. Guy's a video machine. These incredible jets.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: You don't hear them until they're right over the top
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: of you. That trailing sound. How cool is that? There's
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: been so much epic photography of the planes going over.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: And then check this out. Here's cut nine. Here's a
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Marine Corps jet that's hovering right near the Washington Monument,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: the Marine Corps version of the Joint Strike Fighter. Check
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: this thing out. Can you imagine? Again, I'm so glad
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: these guys are on our side. That's our military. Just
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: imagine being like any other country on planet Earth and
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: seeing this and being like, God, don't mess with America.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Isn't that incredible? What incredible technology. Very cool. Very, very cool.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: At any rate, that's the Marines. Thank you to the
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Marines for being great. I've got more for you in
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: just a moment. There's a lot more to get to.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: I can't help but review how excellent this weekend was.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: We only get one crack at 250. There's a lot
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: of us who aren't going to be alive for 300.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: So I'm going to I'm going to marinate in this
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: as much as I possibly can. I love, love, love
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: this because we have a great country and it's so
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: cool to be able to celebrate this with you.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: Hold on.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: I've got a lot more to get to. Patriot Mobile.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: We got to thank today, though. They're a wonderful patriotic
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: sponsor of our program and they give me great cell
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: phone service. My phone works better than ever with Patriot Mobile.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: It feels like our country finally does have some momentum again.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: So many of us are fighting to restore common sense
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: in America first. But we've seen all of this before.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: You know, conservatives will get comfortable and then the left
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: will start taking background inch by inch. Now, we can't
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: let that happen. America needs every one of us in
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: the fight. And a big part of that means supporting
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: companies that actually do stand for our values. That's why
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: I do partner with Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile gives you
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: premium priority nationwide service on any of the three major U.S. networks.
• 20:56

• 20:58

  Speaker 1: Keep your phone, keep your number, activate in minutes. But
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile is so much more than a great wireless service.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: They've supported a growing movement of Americans defending faith, family, freedom,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: and the future of this country by donating millions of
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: dollars every year to organizations who are fighting for our freedoms.

• 21:35
  Speaker 1: They really do. OK, let's see. Yeah, we and then
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: here's cut seven for you. I think this is Doug
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Burgum kind of reviewing how many fireworks we launched up
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: into the air. Cut seven. Watch this.
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: I know the plan was eight hundred and fifty thousand fireworks.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: The goal was to break the world record.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Did it? I'm confident we did.
• 21:57
  Speaker 9: Anybody that saw it knows there's been nothing like that
• 21:59
  Speaker 9: in the history of the U.S.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: It was really spectacular.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: It was spectacular. Well, congratulations to the Interior Secretary. Thank
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: you to the President of the United States for putting
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: on a great show. And God bless America. What an amazing,
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: an amazing weekend. And hey, look, the year continues. It's
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: not over yet. My bun thing is staying up. My
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: American flag is always up. We're going to keep celebrating
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: here in the Colonies household because we got a great country.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: You know, Doug Burgum, you saw him there.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: He was on CNN.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Being interviewed. And he was defeating a lot of, as
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: these Trump officials so often do, defeating a lot of
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: random left-wing conspiracy theorizing about the reflecting pool. You know,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: they love crapping all over the reflecting pool. In fact,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: I think they actually love crapping in the reflecting pool.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: I think that's one of the things the left likes doing.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: But the president of the United States, he's cleaned the
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: whole thing up. And this is causing the left to
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: have a deep rage. They hate the president having visible
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: signs of success. Because they think that if the president
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: is responsible for creating attractive projects, that more people will
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: be attracted to him. That's the psychology here. And so
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: they want to stop it. And when the Trump administration says, yeah,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: there were a bunch of left-wing vandals who've been trying
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: to destroy the reflecting pool. The left is claiming, no,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: there's not. No, there's not. You're just terrible. So watch
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Doug Burgum as he corrects all these conspiracy theories. Cut 10.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Watch this.
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: The expediting contract in order to try to get it
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: fixed in time for July 4th. Now, of course, chunks
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: of paint are peeling off the floor. The algae has returned.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: What went wrong?
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: Well, the algae is all gone.
• 23:40
  Speaker 9: I mean, that was a momentary thing as it was
• 23:44
  Speaker 9: being refilled.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: There was algae in the pipes.
• 23:46
  Speaker 9: But the new technology, the nanobubblers that have been installed,
• 23:50
  Speaker 9: if you go down there today and look at it,
• 23:52
  Speaker 9: it is completely clean and clear. And so for the
• 23:54
  Speaker 9: first time, there's actual solution available. that involves making sure
• 23:58
  Speaker 9: that we've got an algae-free pond. It keeps being reported
• 24:03
  Speaker 9: that this was paint.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: It was not paint.
• 24:05
  Speaker 9: This was an industrial liner that was put into the
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: pool for the very first time, multiple layers fixing two
• 24:10
  Speaker 9: and a half miles of expansion.
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: But it peeled off.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Why did that happen?
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Do you know?
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: It didn't peel off. There was vandalism. There was box cutters.
• 24:19
  Speaker 9: There have been seven arrests. There was people literally trying
• 24:22
  Speaker 9: to destroy part of a monument. The reflecting pool is not.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Just a pool on the mall. It is part of
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: the Lincoln Memorial.
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: And if anybody says that they're going to go and
• 24:31
  Speaker 9: vandalize that, it's no different than if someone was throwing.
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: Paint on Lincoln itself. And you're 100% sure that what
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: happened with the liner was vandalism. You can prove it.
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: Oh, yeah, absolutely we can. And as we drain it,
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: we've got all the photographs we can see. I mean,
• 24:44
  Speaker 9: there's no possible way.
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: You have photographs of a person or people? cutting a
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: 300 or 350 foot gash in the bottom of the
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: reflecting pool?
• 24:52
  Speaker 9: Dana, I'm not sure why you and others in the
• 24:55
  Speaker 9: media think that you want to keep trying to question
• 24:57
  Speaker 9: whether or not I think this is an industrial liner.
• 24:59
  Speaker 9: Every farmer and rancher in America that's had their pickup
• 25:02
  Speaker 9: liner lined by this spray it on liner knows that
• 25:05
  Speaker 9: you literally, literally, it would never just like peel off
• 25:08
  Speaker 9: or fall off. This is like a strong material and
• 25:11
  Speaker 9: it's the size of eight football fields. And the only
• 25:14
  Speaker 9: way you can end up with actual slices in one
• 25:16
  Speaker 9: spot and not the other is that someone physically cut it.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: But the pool itself, it's not leaking.
• 25:22
  Speaker 9: It was leaking 45,000 gallons a day. It's finally been
• 25:26
  Speaker 9: fixed by President Trump. And the American flag blue is
• 25:30
  Speaker 9: working perfectly. And again, it's beyond me why, I mean,
• 25:34
  Speaker 9: the real scandal is about the fact that that the
• 25:38
  Speaker 9: state of our capital was in such total disrepair that
• 25:42
  Speaker 9: some people, no one was reporting about, no one was
• 25:44
  Speaker 9: reporting about the pro-Hamas graffiti on.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: The- Mr.
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: Secretary, you and I talked about this last month. Yeah,
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: and we're still talking about it. Well, because it was
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: July 4th and the reflecting poll was closed.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: It was closed because it's surrounded by fireworks. It's closed
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: every year on the 4th of July.
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: But it was closed prior to that in order to
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: fix the reflecting pool.
• 26:03
  Speaker 9: No, it was closed because the largest fireworks display in
• 26:07
  Speaker 9: the country we're talking about was set up, and it
• 26:08
  Speaker 9: lines either side of the reflecting pool. You can't have
• 26:11
  Speaker 9: people around fireworks when they're being set up. Now that
• 26:14
  Speaker 9: the fireworks will come down.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: The fence will come down. The fence was there because
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: of the fireworks. Copy that.
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: I just want to ask you about one other thing.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: How many conspiracy theories did Doug Burgum defeat? in under
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: two minutes. She's just, is that supposed to be a
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: news show? She's just making things up. She's like, do
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: you really have evidence for this? He's like, yeah, if
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: you have straight line slices inside of the liner, those
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: don't just emerge naturally. Oh, how'd that happen? Somebody cut
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: up the liner. That's what happened. Doug Berger was like, yeah,
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: we got evidence. We're presenting it in court against these people.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: It's funny though, he just goes through all that explanation
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: and that's still not enough for her. She still wants
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: him to grant, he wants the Trump administration, she wants
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: the Trump administration to grant leniency to people who've been
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: accused of vandalizing the reflecting pool. There was a guy
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: who apparently was in the Olympics at one point who
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: has been arrested and charged with vandalizing the reflecting pool.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: And if you've noticed, the media keeps referring to him
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: as an Olympian. Olympian, they're going after an Olympian. I
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: don't know what his time in the Olympics has to
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: do with anything, actually, other than you trying to use
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: it as some sort of shield for him to be
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: held accountable for any crime that he's credibly accused of.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: But on CNN, she was trying to get the Trump
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: administration to go easy on him. Please go easy on
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: the guy who's been vandalizing the pool. Cut 11. Watch this.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: About the vandalism.
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: There is an Olympian, David Hearn, who was indicted for vandalism,
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: the maximum sentence is, 10 years in prison. He says
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: he didn't do anything other than reach into the reflecting
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: pool and look at and pull out and look at
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: a piece of the liner that had already been cut.
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: Do you really think he should face a 10-year prison
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: sentence for doing this? This is somebody who competed for
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: America and did extremely well there and is saying he
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: didn't do anything wrong?
• 28:12
  Speaker 9: You can be a Former governor, you can be a
• 28:15
  Speaker 9: former this, you can be a former that, but just
• 28:17
  Speaker 9: because you were a former something doesn't exclude you from
• 28:20
  Speaker 9: the law today.
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's fair.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Nobody's above the law.
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: But he says he didn't do anything to actually hurt
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: it other than pick it up because it was already appealing.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: He can say what he wants to say. I wasn't there.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: I was not an eyewitness.
• 28:30
  Speaker 9: I mean, the courts will decide. But I think the
• 28:33
  Speaker 9: law stands.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: That is a law that exists. And it should be, again,
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: if people.
• 28:36
  Speaker 9: Are damaging federal government property, if people are defaming our
• 28:42
  Speaker 9: our monuments, they should face the consequences of that.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: So the courts will decide.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, send a clear message. You jack our stuff up,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: we'll jack you up. That's how it works. That's how
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: it works. And so now he can face a court
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: of law and they can work out the details. But
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: this is like, you know, it's too much. It's like
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: these lefties are crazy. So they destroy nice things and
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: then their media outlets cover up for them and pretend like, oh,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: nothing actually happened. You're just making it up. Nope, not
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: making it up. You can, your lies don't work anymore.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: They don't work. We don't buy it. And we're going
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: to defeat you with the truth. It's always going to,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: that'll always work for us.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: Always.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: I've got, I've got more truth to share with you.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: We've got a lot to get to. I've got the
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Save America Act for you. Now, the president, I told
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: you a moment ago, he announced his, his plan to
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: go after the commies this year in the midterms at
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: that big speech that he gave in front of the
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: nation on Saturday. But he also brought up another element.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: He brought up the Save America Act. We'll get into
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: the president's words on the matter and also what Mike
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: Johnson is now saying he's doing on it. So we've
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: got a lot to get to as this week begins.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Very busy as we head into the mighty summer. More
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: ahead on this edition of Vince. I want to thank
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: our great sponsors for making our show possible. Then right
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: back into it, You know, I want to thank Helix
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Mattress first and foremost here. Helix Mattress. I sleep so
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: well because of our Helix Mattress. We've got the Midnight
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: Lux in our house, and it has been game-changing. We
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: had a couple of crappy mattresses. I didn't realize they
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: were so crappy. I thought they were the good stuff.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: We got them. We went to the mattress store. We
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: tried out mattresses. We were like, okay, we'll go with
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: this one, I guess. And then I got home, and
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: I was like– I think it's all right. I don't know.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: And it wasn't all right because once I got a Helix,
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I realized how crappy my old mattress was. Helix is great.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: We made the switch and I think you should too.

• 32:47
  Speaker 1: Let's see here. Got to make sure I can gavel in.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: There we go. Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: United States this Saturday, cut to talking about the Save
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: America Act.
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: America is back, and we want to keep America great,
• 33:04
  Speaker 4: and we will do so by approving the Save America Act,
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: which means all voters.
• 33:10
  Speaker 6: Must show voter ID. All voters must provide a.
• 33:21
  Speaker 8: Little thing called proof of citizenship. And there will be
• 33:28
  Speaker 8: no mail-in ballots except for illness, disability, military deployment, or travel.
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: And you won't have cheating on the elections anymore. It's
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: very simple.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: This is great. You know, it's fun. The president apparently
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: has been, reportedly, has been telling senators, including in that
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Republican lunch that he went to when he was smacking
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: a bunch of them around about all this, that, um,
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: you know, they can talk about all this other legislation,
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: FISA and housing and all these other priorities that they
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: seem to have other than election integrity. And as far
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: as the president's concerned, nothing matters unless you get election integrity.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: He goes, because I go out on the road and
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: I'll talk about the housing bill. I'll get like some
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: polite applause. I talk about Save America Act. He goes,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: everybody's on their feet. Nothing gets Americans on their feet
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: like election integrity. And so the president has noticed this
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: at the rallies. Obviously, he's sincerely concerned about election integrity,
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: but he's noticed that the voting public demands it enthusiastically,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: that you and I are demanding it enthusiastically. And as
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: a result, he's trying to tell these senators, guys, wake
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: the hell up. Do you understand what voters want? Because
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: I'm talking to them. I'm out there on the road.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: I'm doing these rallies. And when I bring up the
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Save America Act, people go absolutely crazy for it. You
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: got to get it done. You have to make a
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: priority one. So the president thinks so sincerely about this
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: that he integrated it into his Independence Day speech. which
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: of course the left is freaking out about. Oh no,
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: oh no. What are you freaking out about? If you're
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: winning elections fair and square, then you've got nothing to
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: worry about. But that's not how they win elections. They
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: use fraud. They use deception. They use deceit. And so
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: the president's fighting for a very important piece of legislation.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: We need this to become law. Now, what is Congress
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: doing about it? Well, Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: was on television this weekend, and he's still using this strategy.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: I'm going to push it through reconciliation. I'm going to
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: push it through reconciliation.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Now, you and I have gone over many times why
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I don't believe this is going to be a meaningful
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: way for us to get anything done. Reconciliation is a
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: budget maneuver. It's not a real way to affect statutes
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: and laws across the country. But Mike Johnson says, I'm
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: going to push it. I'm going to push it. And
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: the president has asked Mike Johnson for evidence that it's
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: actually going to work. He's like, really? I got to
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: see some real action on this. Here's Mike Johnson. Let's
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: see what he said this week and cut 13.
• 36:05
  Speaker 7: Watch.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: That's legislation.
• 36:07
  Speaker 10: I just decided it was best to send everybody home
• 36:09
  Speaker 10: to go celebrate July 4th in their districts. We'll come back,
• 36:11
  Speaker 10: gather everybody together. The big urgency is to get Save
• 36:14
  Speaker 10: America passed. The president has that as a top priority,
• 36:17
  Speaker 10: and so do I. We passed it three times in
• 36:19
  Speaker 10: the House. We're going to try one more time on
• 36:21
  Speaker 10: a budget reconciliation bill, and I think that will be
• 36:24
  Speaker 10: the way to get it through the Senate and finally
• 36:25
  Speaker 10: to the president's desk. So that's forthcoming.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: That's forthcoming. Now, again, we played some audio for you before.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: Mike Johnson is making this claim like, oh, we're going
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: to create a fund. And then states who want to
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: access it to have election integrity, they can do that.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: And hopefully blue states come to their senses so they
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: can access this fund. Now, that sounds like garbage to me.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: That sounds like a garbage, nonsensical arrangement to me. I
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: don't understand. I don't think any blue state is going
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: to be tapping into this fund in order to actually
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: have real election integrity. If anything, they're just going to
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: steal the money. Can you imagine Tampon Tim Walls making
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: a decision about what to do with money? He's not
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: going to improve Minnesota's election system. He's just going to
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: steal the money and not improve the system. So again,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: I'm very skeptical. But this is one of those moments
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: where we have to have some trust that the president
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: of the United States is going to quarterback this the
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: correct way, that the president is not going to have
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: a fast one pulled on him here, that this will
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: be real meaningful progress towards securing America's elections. Now, Mike
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Johnson said in that same interview that the top two
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: priorities that he wants to pursue for the Save America
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Act in this reconciliation scheme is voter ID and verifying
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: that people are American citizens when they register to vote.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: Prove it, Mike. Prove it. Because as far as I,
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: right now, as far as I can tell, we've got
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of people standing in the way, including some
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: Republicans in the Senate. We've got a parliamentarian that Harry
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: Reid put in place who's not going to allow anything
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: meaningful to get through. And even if you fired her
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: and replaced her, that's still no guarantee. There's something meaningful
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: we can get through. So I'll just be honest with you.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: I am deeply skeptical of this entire gambit. Deeply. I'm
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: willing to be proven wrong. I would love to be
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: proven wrong. I hope Mike Johnson can prove me so
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: wrong that I'll have egg all over my face on
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: this subject. And I'll be like, you know what? He
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: did it. He knocked it out of the park. I
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: didn't think he could. He pulled it off. I'm not
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: holding my breath. But I am keeping an eye on you, Mike.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Come on, Speaker Johnson. Don't sell us a bill of
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: goods here. Actually do something. If he can get to
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: a point where every state in the country requires photo
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: ID and proof that you're an American citizen when you
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: register to vote, that would be epic. That's a start.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: That's precisely the kind of start that you and I
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: are looking for. I'm not buying it yet, though. We'll
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: see what the president has to say on the subject
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: as the week barrels forward. But right now, this is
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: the plan. Mike Johnson is with that reconciliation package, and
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: President Trump seems okay with it for now. But you
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: and I can keep an eye on it. And please
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: keep the pressure on the Senate. Really, it's so crazy
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: to me that they haven't even really begun a real
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: debate on the actual legislation. The House has already passed
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act. The Senate should be standing on
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: their own two feet debating this. But we don't even
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: have that. Instead, we just get a lot of games.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: The Senate's on vacation. Mitch McConnell, is Mitch McConnell hospitalized
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: right now? McConnell, has disappeared entirely. We saw these reports
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: that in June when he collapsed, it turns out that
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: the EMTs show up at the house, they perform CPR
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: on him for cardiac arrest. And then he's disappeared from
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: public view. There's just a lot of not passing the
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Save America Act going on right now. which is a
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: source of great frustration. But please keep calling your United
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: States senator. Keep the pressure on.
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: Would you?
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: That would be wonderful. We do have some election integrity
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: news that's super interesting, though. Very interesting. So before I
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: signed off on the radio show on Thursday, we were
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: getting reports that the investigation into 2020 is reaching a
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: new level especially as it relates to Fulton County, Georgia. Now,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: you probably remember back in January, the FBI raided, of
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: this year, the FBI raided Fulton County, Georgia and grabbed
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: the ballots and documents from the 2020 election.
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: Take a look.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Here's cut 14 of that raid back in January.
• 40:33
  Speaker 7: Watch.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: Fox News is learning FBI agents are on site at
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: a Fulton County election office in Georgia where they are
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: conducting a search.
• 40:41
  Speaker 9: David Spuntz got more details for us on this developing story.
• 40:45
  Speaker 7: David.
• 40:45
  Speaker 10: Hi, Sandra.
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: This is a satellite office for the Fulton County Elections Office,
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: the FBI Atlanta Press Office, confirming this, not giving many details,
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: saying that the FBI is executing a court-authorized law enforcement action.
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: No other details at this time, but we do know
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: via sources a judge signed off on this warrant, allowing
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: these agents, as you see them, enter this building to
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: take items from the inside. Now, we're told that this
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: is a sealed matter before the court, meaning details are
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: now limited. Now, agents are looking at documents, phones, computers.
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: We are told via multiple sources this is related to
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: the 2020 presidential election. Now, we don't know specifically what
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: agents are taking to the FBI lab, items that may
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: eventually become part of a federal case. You may remember
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: President Trump was charged in Fulton County with trying to
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: overturn the 2020 election results. That's Brad Raffensperger right there.
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: He is the Secretary of State of Georgia. That is
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: the Fulton County District Attorney, Fannie Willis. Now, Raffensperger spoke
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: to President Trump back in early 2021, and Trump said
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: that he wanted to find some 11,000 votes to help
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: win the election. Raffensperger said that he felt pressure from Trump.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: Willis then took Donald Trump to trial. That didn't happen.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: In 2023, she said that her prosecution was all buttoned up,
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: ready to go, but it was completely derailed after it
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: was revealed she had an intimate relationship with the top
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: prosecutor on her team and it could have tainted the case.
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: Late last year, a judge dismissed the case in its entirety.
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: It's important to point out, Sandra, that a judge typically
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: would not just sign off on a warrant so the
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: FBI could go on what's known as a phishing expedition.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: It's likely the FBI and DOJ presented some credible evidence
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: to the judge for the judge to go ahead and
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: give the green light. No immediate comment from the Justice Department. Again,
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: the FBI.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: So that was, of course, the January report. And that
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: was signed off. That raid was signed off on by
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: a U.S. magistrate judge. In Atlanta, the warrant authorized the
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: agents to seize all of the physical ballots from the
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: 2020 election, voting machine tabulator tapes, images produced during the
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: ballot count, and voter rolls from the 2020 election. Now,
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: the reality, of course, is that Fulton County is a
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: complete dumpster fire. I mean, these guys have already admitted
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: to mishandling many, many ballots. They were certifying ballots inappropriately.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: It's been a complete disaster. So is there justification for
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: investigating the way the 2020 election was conducted? A hundred percent.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: And the FBI has been doing it. And here's the
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: update for you today. So this is the big update
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: from over the weekend. CBS reports... that the FBI has
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: now ordered, this is the Kash Patel-led FBI, just out,
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: July 2nd headline here. The FBI has now ordered field
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: offices to send analysts to Atlanta for the 2020 election investigation.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Field offices all across the country to help evaluate thousands
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: of records of according to multiple sources familiar with the events.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: The memo calls on every FBI field office across the
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: country now to assign analysts, seeking to reach a total
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: of 260 analysts. Large field offices are being asked to
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: contribute eight analysts each. Small and medium offices must dedicate
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: between three and five analysts. They're being asked to review
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: 708 records apiece and complete the work by July 17th.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: So that would be 11 days from now. according to
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: the memo. These tactical intel staffers typically provide help with
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: day-to-day casework, such as running license plates or doing open
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: source checks on subjects of investigations, phone analysis, preparing subpoenas,
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: and reviewing subpoena returns. They say the surge of personnel
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: was first reported by Ms.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: President Trump has repeatedly alleged, without providing evidence, yada, yada, yada,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: Fulton County, Georgia. So this is a fascinating development. So
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: here's an obvious thing to think about. Is there any
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: circumstance where Kash Patel and the FBI are sending agents
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: from all across the country to Fulton County, Georgia to
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: review these records? And they're doing it because it's just
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: a snipe hunt? That they've got nothing? They've got absolutely nothing? No,
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: of course not. The reason they would have all of
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: this personnel assigned to one case is in order to
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: review all of this evidence and get it done in
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: a fixed timeline, is because they think they have something
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: meaningful here. The president has indicated many times now that
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: we have prosecutions coming related to the 2020 election. And
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: this certainly seems like forward progress on that subject. Meanwhile,
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: of course, we've got the big grand conspiracy case going
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: on in South Florida, where we very eagerly await indictments
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: in that case, that's been a source of immense freak
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: out for people like John Brennan and James Comey, who
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: are constantly spazzing out on their favorite cable networks about
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: the fact that they're under investigation. John Brennan just this
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: past week decided to sue the United States Department of
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Justice and told them, you better preserve all these records
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: for your crazy behavior, to which the Justice Department probably
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: laughed in his face. Preserve the records. It's called evidence.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: We're definitely preserving it because we're coming after you with it.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: Good luck, John Brennan, as he sues the Justice Department.
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: That's a sign of desperation in the midst of all
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: of this. So I wanted you to keep an eye
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: on what exactly is going on here, because this seems meaningful.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: The Georgia case has reached a new level, Fulton County, Georgia,
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: as the FBI has assigned all these people. And remember,
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: there's also a role for the director of national intelligence, apparently,
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: because Tulsi Gabbard was present at the raid in Georgia
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: when all of this was going down in January. And
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: now subsequently Bill Pulte, who is currently the acting director
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: of national intelligence, the president of the United States has said, hey,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: I'm going to need you to declassify everything that you
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: possibly can related to the 2020 election and help us
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: go after all of this. So this is a part
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: of Bill Pulte's mission too. So as you and I
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: look at all the tea leaves here, we're beginning to
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: get a very clear picture that there's something very meaningful
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: going on with the 2020 election. So keep an eye
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: on that. That's really wonderful news. Now, going into this
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: 2026 election, these midterms, do we have any positive indicators
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: heading into the election to help the midterms? Well, the president,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: I told you, he's got this. He's going after the communists,
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: as he said in the speech. We're going to have
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: a big midterm convention coming up. Also, gas prices have,
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: have you noticed this perhaps in your own town? Gas
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: prices have continued to fall. Oil prices are hovering at
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: near pre-conflict levels now, that would be pre-war levels with Iran,
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: as OPEC Plus boosts output again, Fox Business reports. Oil
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: prices hovered near pre-conflict levels on Sunday after OPEC Plus
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: agreed to increase production again, adding to global crude supplies
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: as exports through the Strait of Hormuz continue to recover
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: following months of disruption. The Oil Producing Alliance saying it's
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: raising output targets by 188,000 barrels per day beginning in August,
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: marking its third consecutive monthly increase as it gradually unwinds
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: production cuts that were implemented in 2023. So in other words,
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: there are now, quote, easing concerns about a lingering global
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: supply crunch, and this will result in global energy prices
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: coming down and gas prices coming down. They are coming
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: down across the country. Right now, I'm seeing some people
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: in chat saying that they're still paying too much for gas.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: We're always paying too much for gas, aren't we? But
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: the gas prices are coming down right now, which is
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: a really big deal. In fact, let's check the gas
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: prices of this morning, oil prices right now. Look at that.
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: That's interesting. That's a good sign as we look. CNBC
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: with the coverage here, $ 68 a barrel right now. $ 68
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: a barrel. Brent crude, meanwhile, $ 71. 78 a barrel. So this
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: is all coming down as we speak. The president keeps
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: pointing to this, going, ladies and gentlemen, I'm getting the
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: gas prices down. That's going to have a big impact
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: going into the midterms. Also, it's a source of great
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: frustration on the left. They're very upset about this. They're
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: always upset. Anytime anything happens with President Trump that isn't
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: bad or is good, they're very upset. They were hoping
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: gas prices would skyrocket when this war began. They're like,
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: oh man, I can't wait for gas prices to skyrocket.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: This will really hurt Trump And meanwhile, they've been stubbornly
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: kind of staying a little bit lower than these guys
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: had anticipated. And now they're going down. Yeah, there you go.
• 49:44
  Speaker 5: Left.
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: There you go. Perfectly great.
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: Wonderful.
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: We've also got some some more information for you about
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: what's going on. It's kind of the latest with the
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: war in Iran. There's some headlines over the weekend that
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: Israel reportedly had attempted to shoot down Iran's negotiators at
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: one point. This is a Daily Caller headline. Israel reportedly
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: attempted to shoot down Iran's negotiators. Israel attempted to kill
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: Iran's negotiators on their plane after talks between the U.S.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: and Iran had concluded in Pakistan. The New York Times
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: reported this. The attempt occurred in the air as Iranian
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: Foreign Minister Abbas Arigachi and Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: were flying home to Tehran from talks in Pakistan, citing
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: anonymous U.S.
• 50:31
  Speaker 4: Officials.
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: As the officials were en route flying home, Iran's security
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: forces notified the plane that two Israeli fighter jets had
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: entered Iranian airspace with the intention of attacking it. However,
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: the plane was not shot down and made an emergency
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: landing in Mashhad, Iran's closest airport to Pakistan, according to
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: the Times. The diplomatic jet also had an escort from
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: Pakistani fighter jets. The Iranian diplomatic jet was carrying more
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: than 70 other Iranian officials during the flight, the outlet reported.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: The White House, the State Department, and the Israeli embassy
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: in Washington did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: You know, perfectly content with Iranian lunatics getting killed off
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: by the president of the United States fighting for our interest.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Not content with any attempt to upend our negotiations. So,
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: you know, if the United States is actively engaged in
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: negotiations with an Iranian official and we need that person
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: alive to continue those negotiations, don't get in our way.
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: Don't disrupt those. Like, settle down. And in fact, the
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: president of the United States feels pretty good about the
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: power he exerts over all of the players in this conversation.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: That includes Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel. The
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: president told Axios this weekend that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: Netanyahu does know who the boss is in this relationship,
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: which is great news. He said President Trump told Axios
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: Saturday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked him for
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: a meeting at the White House and that it could
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: take place as early as next week after Trump returns
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: from the NATO summit. Quote, we get along very good,
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: said the president. Netanyahu knows who the boss is, he
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: said in a brief interview, referring to himself. This will
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: be the first meeting between the two leaders since they
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: met in February, where Netanyahu had reportedly briefed the White
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: House in the Situation Room ahead of the war launching
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: in Iran. So this will be a return by Netanyahu
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: taking place very soon. And the president says, don't you worry.
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: Bibi knows who the boss is. He knows who the
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: boss is. That's good news. The president of the United
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: States controlling the conversation here, despite the claims that Netanyahu
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: controls Trump. Yeah, I don't think so. And the president
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: pretty clear on that subject. I'm the boss, he said.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: I'm the boss. Not the first time we've heard him
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: say he's the boss. Remember this last month?
• 52:57
  Speaker 7: Watch.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: Here's President Trump, cut 16. Hello.
• 53:00
  Speaker 5: I'm the boss. How are you?
• 53:05
  Speaker 4: Good, thank you.
• 53:11
  Speaker 7: Hello.
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: I'm the boss.
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: I'm the boss.
• 53:15
  Speaker 6: How are you?
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: I'm the boss. Isn't that fun? That's great. Yeah, he's
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: the boss.
• 53:22
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: Let's see here. That's great news. Oh, speaking of the boss.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: I do have to get to this detail. The United
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: States men's team is playing today against Belgium in the
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: World Cup. And I don't know about you. And I
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: think as the games have become more and more high
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: stakes and as the United States has advanced more, suddenly
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: I'm actually watching more. I admit I'm watching soccer. I've
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: been watching it. I watched England defeat Mexico last night.
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: I was up a little late for that. but it's
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: actually been kind of exciting to watch the World Cup. Now,
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: I don't envision myself becoming a soccer watcher with any
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: permanence after this is all over, but whatever. I'm watching
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: the World Cup. I'm enjoying it a great deal. It's
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: been a lot of fun. But one thing that was
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: absolutely crazy this past week is the fact that our
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: top scorer on the U.S. men's national team was given
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: a red card Which means he was kicked out of
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: the remainder of the game. His name's Falarun Balogun. He
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: was kicked out of the remainder of the game he
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: was playing in. That was 30 minutes of time. This
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: boggles my mind that they have like a 30-minute power
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: play in soccer. So he gets thrown out of the game.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: That means the United States was short a man. They still...
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: won the game despite not having their best scorer. And
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: the way the red card apparently works is the subsequent game,
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: he would also be banned, that it was supposed to
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: be some sort of mandatory ban to kick him out
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: of the game. Now, if you go back and you
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: watch the footage, the contact that he made didn't look
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: like it was purposeful or anything. It looked entirely incidental.
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: And soccer experts who have much better subject matter understanding
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: than I do are saying that it is ridiculous that
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: he was ever given a red card to begin with.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: He wasn't originally red carded by the referee. They went
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: to a video replay. They started watching it. At the
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: conclusion of the video replay, watching it in slow motion,
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: they decided to give him a red card. And everything
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: just about that arrangement just seemed like a total, total betrayal. Like,
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: it did not seem sensible at all. Now, he was
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: a gentleman about it. Fowler and Balogun was a gentleman
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: about it. He shook hands with the ref. He... walked
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: off the field and has just been, he's like, he
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: said after the match, he's like, look, I think at
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: worst I should have been given a yellow card. I
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: think it was unreasonable to give me a red card.
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: But he was expecting not to play tomorrow. I mean,
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: today rather. Here's the thing. We got an indication. The
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: first indication I had that things had changed is the
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: president of the United States posted a truth social yesterday.
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: Thank you to FIFA for doing what was right. and
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: reversing a great injustice, President Donald J. Trump. So he
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: posts this yesterday afternoon. I go, what is he talking about?
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: What's happening here? And the answer to that question is,
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: Fowler and Balligan had his suspension reversed yesterday. This news
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: is massive all across the planet right now. His suspension
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: was reversed in what they're calling a huge boost for
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: the USA World Cup hopes. Well, that makes sense considering
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: he's our top scorer. That's a big deal. So what
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: happened exactly? I thought this thing was mandatory, that he
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: couldn't be in the game. Well, allegedly, the New York
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: Times reports that President Trump himself got involved. Trump asked
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: FIFA to review U.S. players' suspension. Now he's eligible to play. Now,
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: without even knowing more details about this, if that's all true,
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: if the president asked for an appeal, if he made
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: a personal appeal to FIFA, would you take a look
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: at this? If that's the arrangement and we got our
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: guy back and he can help us win today, what
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: an amazing story. Thank you, President Trump. I'm not sick
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: of winning. That's amazing. And any American citizen who's observing
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: this should be overjoyed that the president put in the
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: effort if that's the case. Kamala Harris would never. Kamala
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: Harris can't even describe what's happening on a soccer field.
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: But President Trump apparently intervened to save the U.S. men's
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: national team so they can play full strength? That's an
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: amazing story. I love that. And so here's what the
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: New York Times says about it. They said President Trump
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: called Gianni Infantino, the president of FIFA, in the hours
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: after the U.S. men's soccer team played Wednesday and asked
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: him to review the suspension of the team's top goal
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: scorer in the World Cup, Fowler and Balogun, after he
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: was given a red card, according to four people familiar
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: with the conversations. On Sunday, FIFA reversed the suspension, announcing
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: that Mr. Balogun would be eligible to play Monday against Belgium.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: The reversal is highly unusual. What's the first time since
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: 1962 that FIFA has allowed a player to appear in
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: a game when they would have been suspended after being
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: sent off in the World Cup?
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: Mr.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: Infantino has spent years trying to curry favor with Mr. Trump,
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: the New York Times says. And then they go on
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: to suggest that this whole concept is basically that FIFA
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: is sucking up to Trump. They really want him to
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: like them. and therefore they reversed the suspension of Fowler
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: and Balogun. Now, there are, having said that, I saw
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: Axios has a reporter by the name of Mark Caputo
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: who said that there's a lot of overstatement going on,
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: including from the New York Times, that President Trump didn't
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: make an appeal directly, that what he did was he
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: called Infantino and he said, hey, just explain what happened here.
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: He just asked for information. He didn't make a specific ask,
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: says Mark, and he was told it was being independently reviewed. Quote,
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: if Trump had put his thumb on the scale and
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: had achieved this result, he would have a field day
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: bragging about it, said a source to Mark Caputo. Now, look,
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: I hope the president did ask for it. appeal, to
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: be honest with you. I really do. What's the problem
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: with that? There's no problem. I love how people are like, well,
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: that would be corruption. How would it be corruption? Any
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: government leader can talk and ask anything they want. Any
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: of us could be like, hey, would you review that?
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: That seemed unjust. Can you review it, please? So if
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: the president asked them to do the right thing and
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: then they did the right thing, why would that be
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: a problem exactly? It's not a problem. It's wonderful. So
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: I hope the president asked for an appeal. I hope
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: the president is the reason that this guy's playing. And
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: I hope that all of the people bitching get to
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: watch the U.S. men's national team win today so they
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: can complain even more That would be great. And they
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: are complaining. There's people with Trump derangement syndrome here in
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: the United States who are all pissed off about this.
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: Here's Nicholas Kristof goofball at the New York Times. He goes,
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: this will appear to the world as favoritism and as
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: FIFA bowing to political influence.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: If the U.S.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: Wins, I fear that much of the world will see
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: it as a win with an asterisk. And it's Trump's
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: America making its own rules, even in the sports world.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: First of all, dumbass, if the guy was removed from
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: the game because of an unjust ruling on the field
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: to begin with, the asterisk would be if Belgium won today.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: That would be the asterisk. Now the United States plays
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: at full strength. Now these teams can actually compete each
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: other on an equal playing field. And you're whining about
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: it because Trump might look good? This is the same
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: group of people who destroyed the reflecting pool just because
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: they're angry that President Trump made it more beautiful. Trump
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: derangement syndrome is a hell of a disease. It's crazy. Meanwhile,
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: the rest of us are rooting on America. as always.
