Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, this is a foxton' is alert. The AP
- 0:03Speaker 1: has now called the special congressional election in Tennessee for
- 0:06Speaker 1: Republican Matt Van Epps, a major win for House Republicans.
- 0:10Speaker 1: President Trump just posted on truth Social congratulations to Matt
- 0:14Speaker 1: Van Epps on his big congressional win in the great
- 0:17Speaker 1: state of Tennessee. The radical left Democrats they threw everything
- 0:20Speaker 1: they had at him, including millions of dollars. Another great
- 0:24Speaker 1: night for the Republican Party. Here now with reaction Texas
- 0:26Speaker 1: Senator Ted Cruz. These elections are very nerve wracking to
- 0:30Speaker 1: me because most people don't know that the election is
- 0:34Speaker 1: happening in this district right the way it goes all
- 0:38Speaker 1: the way from Kentucky down Alabama. Most people don't even
- 0:41Speaker 1: know what district they're in.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Well, and look, that's the danger of any special election
- 0:45Speaker 2: that you have. Whoever's pissed off, they know about the election.
- 0:49Speaker 2: And right now, the people who are pissed off or
- 0:51Speaker 2: the left, they're the people who hate Donald Trump. And
- 0:53Speaker 2: so this was a very red district and it was dangerous.
- 0:57Speaker 2: We could have lost this district because the people who
- 0:59Speaker 2: showed up, many of them, are the ones that are
- 1:03Speaker 2: motivated by how much they dislike President Trump. At the
- 1:06Speaker 2: end of the day, we won this district, and I
- 1:09Speaker 2: think it look all of that. Everyone is looking through
- 1:11Speaker 2: the crystal ball. What does this mean for the midterms
- 1:14Speaker 2: in a year. It's going to be a turnout election
- 1:17Speaker 2: and the left will show up. Hate is a powerful motivator.
- 1:21Speaker 2: They hate President Trump. It doesn't matter. He could cure cancer,
- 1:24Speaker 2: he could feed the entire world, and they would hate him.
- 1:27Speaker 2: There's nothing he can do to change that. What we've
- 1:30Speaker 2: got to make sure is number one, the Conservatives show up.
- 1:33Speaker 2: But number two that just the common sense, middle regular
- 1:36Speaker 2: people who What is dangerous in an off cycle election
- 1:40Speaker 2: is people that are feeling complacent, like things are going well,
- 1:43Speaker 2: I'm happy, and the danger is those folks stay home.
- 1:47Speaker 2: We've got to set out the alarm bells that if
- 1:50Speaker 2: we allow the Democrats to flip the House, to flip
- 1:52Speaker 2: the Senate, it is an absolute catastrophe.
- 1:55Speaker 1: It's prepare for the country. I mean, it'll be NonStop investigation, impeachment.
- 1:59Speaker 1: You know, the same nonsense we've lived through. Scott Beston's
- 2:02Speaker 1: comments were very interesting to me today. We've never had
- 2:06Speaker 1: trillions committed manufacturing. Both your State five hundred billion in
- 2:11Speaker 1: one case, albough one hundred and somewhdd billion in another case.
- 2:15Speaker 1: That is I want to see shovels in the ground.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Jobs will be created, the tax cuts, energy dominance. I
- 2:22Speaker 1: think that will be a force of nature economically.
- 2:24Speaker 2: It is massive, the volume of the investment commitments that
- 2:27Speaker 2: have happened this year. It's nearly twenty trillion dollars. There's
- 2:30Speaker 2: never been another year in the history of America with
- 2:32Speaker 2: anything close to it. Now, you're right, Sean. Press releases
- 2:35Speaker 2: are one things. You've got to actually see shovels in
- 2:37Speaker 2: the ground. You've got to see the dollars deployed, the
- 2:40Speaker 2: jobs happening. They're happening in Texas. We're seeing shovels in
- 2:42Speaker 2: the ground in Texas. But that is a really important
- 2:45Speaker 2: part of the Trump legacy, is creating an incentive where
- 2:49Speaker 2: people want to invest and create jobs in the United States.
- 2:52Speaker 2: I'll tell you today I spent about three hours at
- 2:54Speaker 2: the White House with the President, and we were there
- 2:57Speaker 2: with Michael and Susan Dell, who announced six and a
- 3:01Speaker 2: quarter billion dollars that they are giving to the Trump accounts.
- 3:05Speaker 2: The Trump accounts is it may be the single most
- 3:09Speaker 2: important part of the One Big, Beautiful Bill that passed
- 3:12Speaker 2: this summer, the Trump Accounts. I author this provision. It
- 3:15Speaker 2: creates a private investment account for every child in America.
- 3:20Speaker 2: It seeds newborn babies with one thousand dollars. Parents, family
- 3:24Speaker 2: employers can give up to five thousand a year at
- 3:27Speaker 2: a tax advantage account. All of that is invested in
- 3:29Speaker 2: the S and P. Five hundred. And this provision is
- 3:33Speaker 2: going to do two things. One, every kid in America
- 3:36Speaker 2: is going to get the benefit of compound growth. And two,
- 3:40Speaker 2: it is going to create a new generation of capitalists.
- 3:43Speaker 2: And what Michael and Susan Dell did. The Dells are Texans,
- 3:46Speaker 2: they're great friends. They gave two hundred and fifty dollars
- 3:51Speaker 2: to twenty five million kids all across the country. And
- 3:54Speaker 2: I wrote this provision in the bill to invite philanthropy.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Other philanthropists will follow and think about it. Look if
- 4:01Speaker 2: you go back decades ago when Congress passed section four
- 4:04Speaker 2: oh one K of ARISA, I don't know that anyone
- 4:07Speaker 2: thought it would totally change how people say for retirement. Today,
- 4:10Speaker 2: there are trillions of dollars in four oh one K plans.
- 4:14Speaker 2: These Trump accounts are four to one cas for kids.
- 4:16Speaker 2: There will be trillions of dollars in it, and it
- 4:19Speaker 2: will literally change the face of this country. It is.
- 4:23Speaker 2: It was interesting at the press conference day at the
- 4:25Speaker 2: White House, or reporter asked the President, is this going
- 4:27Speaker 2: to be a major part of your legacy? Said absolutely.
- 4:30Speaker 2: I told the President, I don't think there's another president
- 4:33Speaker 2: of American history who's done more for the children of
- 4:36Speaker 2: America than Donald Trump. Because between the Trump Accounts and
- 4:40Speaker 2: school choice another provision that I wrote that President Trump
- 4:43Speaker 2: signed into law, we are benefiting the kids in a
- 4:46Speaker 2: transformational way.
- 4:47Speaker 1: If Scott Besson's right, and I only have a minute
- 4:49Speaker 1: and one hundred percent appreciation for manufacturers and that means pharmaceuticals,
- 4:54Speaker 1: that means semiconductor chips and automobiles being brought back home,
- 4:58Speaker 1: high paying career jobs and in the energy sector. Scott
- 5:01Speaker 1: Besson's right. Second quarter, third quarter next year, the economy thrives.
- 5:05Speaker 1: Does that impact the election?
- 5:06Speaker 2: It absolutely impacts the election. By the way, also next year,
- 5:09Speaker 2: many of the tax benefits from the One Big Beautiful
- 5:11Speaker 2: Bill kick in. So for example, fifteen tips. Let me
- 5:15Speaker 2: tell you something, if you're a tipped worker, you can
- 5:18Speaker 2: file your tax return in January and get a refund.
- 5:21Speaker 2: And the average refund is going to be about one
- 5:23Speaker 2: thousand dollars because of the tax cut. If you make
- 5:26Speaker 2: tips or overtime, the two biggest drivers are no tax
- 5:29Speaker 2: on tips, I tax on overtime.
- 5:30Speaker 1: I accept tips center.
- 5:32Speaker 2: You know I've got a dollar on me that you
- 5:35Speaker 2: have happily earned Tonight, John.
