- 0:47Speaker 4: seven Valdez one, eight seven seven Valdez one and amigos.
- 0:52Speaker 4: We've got a stacked show ahead. President Trump kicked off
- 0:55Speaker 4: the day at the National Prayer Breakfast, reminding everybody that
- 0:58Speaker 4: faith is back in the way house bigley. We're doing
- 1:01Speaker 4: it bigly. No more sidelining prayer like it was, you know,
- 1:05Speaker 4: optional equipment on your new car. He's actually uniting people
- 1:10Speaker 4: through the power of prayer, defending good people, and basically
- 1:13Speaker 4: telling the room, I need all the help I can get.
- 1:16Speaker 4: Classic Ed Trompito, humble, you know when he needs to
- 1:20Speaker 4: be right. It's refreshing to see a president who doesn't
- 1:22Speaker 4: treat God like a campaign donor that he only calls
- 1:25Speaker 4: when he's in a jam. I like that. He acknowledges
- 1:27Speaker 4: the big man upstairs quite often, and it's self deprecating oftentimes.
- 1:32Speaker 4: He had a little tit for tat with the media
- 1:35Speaker 4: the other day saying, oh, the media, you know, I
- 1:37Speaker 4: think I got that audio. We'll play it for you
- 1:38Speaker 4: in a little bit. Then there's this the trump ourx
- 1:42Speaker 4: rollout Boom straight out of the gate, a website to
- 1:46Speaker 4: slash the really really high prescription drug prices so that
- 1:50Speaker 4: Americans aren't choosing between medication and meals. And I think
- 1:53Speaker 4: that's great. For too long it's gone on, right, for
- 1:55Speaker 4: too long, people could get drugs cheaper overseas, shipping them
- 1:59Speaker 4: here and everything right contraband you'd have to smuggle and
- 2:02Speaker 4: drugs from overseas because they were getting better prices on drugs.
- 2:05Speaker 4: We developed. Leave it to Trumpito to figure it out.
- 2:08Speaker 4: The website trumparx dot gov is live and it's now
- 2:13Speaker 4: hunting for the world's lowest prices on your prescriptions, paying
- 2:16Speaker 4: cash for discounts that big farm I hates, but they
- 2:19Speaker 4: got no choice but to play ball without Trumpito. He
- 2:22Speaker 4: did it yet again. Finally somebody's fighting the pharmacy cartels
- 2:27Speaker 4: like they're the real deep state. And he's it right.
- 2:30Speaker 4: I'm not saying he's the deep state. He's the one
- 2:32Speaker 4: fighting them like he's got the power of the deep
- 2:34Speaker 4: state behind him. God bless him. Now, if you're tired
- 2:37Speaker 4: of getting, you know, price gouged like a tourist, then
- 2:42Speaker 4: it's time for I think you to celebrate what's going
- 2:44Speaker 4: on here, because I, for one, I don't use a
- 2:46Speaker 4: whole lot of prescription medicines, but when I have, and
- 2:50Speaker 4: when I do, I always try to find a good
- 2:53Speaker 4: deal Because for many years, just like you, I never asked.
- 2:57Speaker 4: I thought every pharmacy charged the same price and that
- 2:59Speaker 4: was it. That's not always the case, and you'll find
- 3:02Speaker 4: that out once you start paying more and more for
- 3:03Speaker 4: insurance and that I am all right. I'm actually I'm
- 3:09Speaker 4: thinking of dumping my insurance and getting a job it
- 3:12Speaker 4: might be cheaper for me to get a job working
- 3:15Speaker 4: somewhere where I can get benefits than actually paying for
- 3:18Speaker 4: a plan. And you know, the question is how much
- 3:22Speaker 4: time do you dedicate to that job and still maintain
- 3:24Speaker 4: your active career. I don't want to work like you know,
- 3:28Speaker 4: like like I don't have time to vacation, because that's
- 3:31Speaker 4: really what I'm here for. Let's be honest here right,
- 3:32Speaker 4: I'm here for Paul Jason sand And to talk on
- 3:35Speaker 4: this microphone God willing. Plus, I want to give you
- 3:39Speaker 4: some information on this Nike lawsuit. I got a little
- 3:41Speaker 4: bit more of that on the latter part of the show.
- 3:45Speaker 4: But Nike has a lawsuit right now. They're saying they're
- 3:49Speaker 4: discriminating against white people. Federal investigators are all over the
- 3:52Speaker 4: sneaker giant right now looking into claims that their DEI
- 3:55Speaker 4: push went so far it turned into straight up bias
- 3:59Speaker 4: against white workers, hiring, promotions, mentoring, even who gets the
- 4:04Speaker 4: golden ticket to leadership programs. Apparently if you check the
- 4:08Speaker 4: wrong box, you were out of luck. So the EEOC
- 4:12Speaker 4: is on it like white on rice pun intended students.
- 4:16Speaker 4: And it's about time that somebody's asking questions like this. Hey,
- 4:21Speaker 4: if diversity's the goal, why does it look like reverse
- 4:23Speaker 4: discrimination in nikes? Hmmm, good question. But wait, there's more.
- 4:29Speaker 4: We've got chaos in the headlines today. Trump's team just
- 4:32Speaker 4: announced they're pulling back hundreds of federal immigration agents from
- 4:35Speaker 4: places like Minnesota after the locals threw a fit. But
- 4:38Speaker 4: the first thing they did was they threw in the towel.
- 4:41Speaker 4: That's right, Governor Tim Wallas and Mayor Freyfry, they said,
- 4:44Speaker 4: all right, we're gonna start handing over the bad guys
- 4:47Speaker 4: over to Tom Holman. Isn't that interesting You send in
- 4:49Speaker 4: Tom Holman. Now nobody's getting shot in the streets. Things
- 4:53Speaker 4: are a lot calmer. They don't have to have all
- 4:55Speaker 4: these protests, and obviously that's why we don't need so
- 4:57Speaker 4: many federal workers. So kudos to the Trump administration, and
- 5:02Speaker 4: I'm gonna give kudos to Mayor Freyfryan, Tim and Tim
- 5:05Speaker 4: Walls as well. But the teachers' unions, the school districts,
- 5:08Speaker 4: even Frey Fry, you know, they're still saying get out,
- 5:13Speaker 4: but they're playing ball. You know, Democrats are clashing on this,
- 5:18Speaker 4: and I feel like Republicans are just going to use
- 5:20Speaker 4: whatever power of the purse. They have to get their
- 5:22Speaker 4: way so that we can enforce the federal immigration law.
- 5:26Speaker 4: And to me that makes sense. It's the bottom line, right,
- 5:30Speaker 4: Immigration is a federal function. It's not something for Mayor
- 5:33Speaker 4: Frey Fry to get involved in. Matter of fact, he
- 5:36Speaker 4: didn't interview. I don't know if I have this one,
- 5:37Speaker 4: but I know I saw it. He was doing one
- 5:39Speaker 4: of the Sunday shows and they basically asked him, Hey,
- 5:42Speaker 4: this really has nothing to do with and he said, well, look,
- 5:44Speaker 4: I'm not too sure because that's not something we're totally
- 5:46Speaker 4: involved in. Well then why are you always talking about it, sir?
- 5:49Speaker 4: I mean, wow. Anyway, it's very good to see what's happening,
- 5:55Speaker 4: that things are getting better and moving in the right direction.
- 5:58Speaker 4: Then we got, let's see a little bit of international
- 6:02Speaker 4: affairs action. We got prisoner swaps that are happening right
- 6:05Speaker 4: here in the US between Ukraine and Russia as well,
- 6:08Speaker 4: agreeing to exchange hundreds of prisoners that are being held.
- 6:13Speaker 4: This is the first attempt in months that we've seen
- 6:16Speaker 4: towards peace. This has put the war machine on pause temporarily,
- 6:20Speaker 4: very very temporarily. Trump's special envoys broker this deal and
- 6:24Speaker 4: suddenly everybody's taking a breath. Meanwhile, we got measles. Measles
- 6:29Speaker 4: is spiking in places like South Carolina on one of
- 6:32Speaker 4: the biggest outbreaks in years. I didn't even know we
- 6:34Speaker 4: still had measles. That's wild. Where does that come from?
- 6:37Speaker 4: Probably got to bring in one of our experts, maybe
- 6:39Speaker 4: Dennis Gonzalez, who used to work for Secretary Kennedy until
- 6:43Speaker 4: he retired recently. Might bring him in to get his
- 6:45Speaker 4: take on this, because he knows exactly what's going on.
- 6:48Speaker 4: He was actually in charge of the federal team who
- 6:51Speaker 4: contained the zekavirus some years ago when it was spreading
- 6:56Speaker 4: out in the Caribbean. So make note of that. See
- 6:59Speaker 4: if we can get Dennis Gonzales on to talk about this.
- 7:02Speaker 4: Thank you. And Kem Maladis that's right, Kavala Harris, former
- 7:06Speaker 4: vice president. She's back online. She's trying to rebrand her
- 7:09Speaker 4: old campaign into something of a youth mobilization, right, maybe
- 7:13Speaker 4: a headquarters for the midterms, sparking all kinds of twenty
- 7:16Speaker 4: twenty eight rumors. And I'm just thinking, man, let the
- 7:20Speaker 4: cackling tour resume. I'm ready. I'm ready for the coconut
- 7:25Speaker 4: tree memes and all that stuff. She is the best.
- 7:29Speaker 4: Now listen, Familia, it's I don't know, day number whatever
- 7:32Speaker 4: of the Trump comeback, and the left like us. They
- 7:38Speaker 4: are melting down faster than ice cream in San Juan,
- 7:42Speaker 4: if you know what I mean, right, I like Agua.
- 7:44Speaker 4: That stuff melts super quick on a hot day. Anyway,
- 7:48Speaker 4: Prayer in the morning. That's how the comeback is looking
- 7:52Speaker 4: cheaper drugs by lunchtime, and corporate wokeness getting a federal
- 7:56Speaker 4: reality check by dinner time. That's a day in the
- 7:59Speaker 4: life of an American if you look at the headlines,
- 8:02Speaker 4: and that's the kind of Thursday that makes me proud
- 8:05Speaker 4: to be an American, to be here with each and
- 8:07Speaker 4: every one of you. So keep it locked right here.
- 8:09Speaker 4: We got some calls lined up, more on that Nike
- 8:12Speaker 4: mess when we come back, and of course your thoughts,
- 8:15Speaker 4: calls and opinions and trumpedo at the National Prayer Breakfast.
- 8:20Speaker 4: Don't go anywhere. I'm rich Veldz.
- 8:22Speaker 1: This is America. This is America. He's brown, he's bald,
- 8:35Speaker 1: and he's breaking it down.
- 8:37Speaker 4: Oh he's so has someome what's his dad?
- 8:39Speaker 1: Rich Veldz?
- 8:42Speaker 4: All right, thank you. I am here with you. Yes, yes,
- 8:45Speaker 4: I am the winner of the Best Head of Hair
- 8:48Speaker 4: and Radio six years in a row. Ain't nobody stoping
- 8:53Speaker 4: me now? Anyway? I want to get into a little
- 8:56Speaker 4: bit of what's happening with the National Prayer Breakfast. We
- 8:59Speaker 4: got a couple of clips. I saw a bunch of
- 9:01Speaker 4: really good footage from our friend Jenny Korn, the director
- 9:04Speaker 4: of the White House Office of Faith, as well as
- 9:06Speaker 4: a bunch of stuff put out by the White House.
- 9:08Speaker 4: I want to give you as much of it as
- 9:09Speaker 4: I can give you my thoughts on it before we
- 9:11Speaker 4: move on. Let's start with this.
- 9:13Speaker 5: Last time I came was I got in at four
- 9:16Speaker 5: in the morning.
- 9:16Speaker 2: They said, sir, you're going to be speaking at seven.
- 9:19Speaker 5: They said, really, Oh, it's wonderful. I said, where National
- 9:24Speaker 5: Prayer Breakfast. I said, I'll be there. I'm afraid not
- 9:26Speaker 5: to be.
- 9:27Speaker 2: I need all the help I can get.
- 9:32Speaker 4: Of course, the crowd always happy to hear from President
- 9:34Speaker 4: Trump on these issues. And he went on to introduce
- 9:37Speaker 4: the first Lady of Nigeria who joined the President at
- 9:42Speaker 4: this prayer Breakfast, as did so many others. Let's go
- 9:47Speaker 4: to the next clip.
- 9:53Speaker 2: To support this exciting renewals.
- 9:55Speaker 4: And I just want to remind you that the president really,
- 10:01Speaker 4: you know, going in there with little demo sleep and
- 10:04Speaker 4: not afraid to talk about God. Unlike many of his predecessors, some.
- 10:10Speaker 5: Major politicians refused to say the word God.
- 10:15Speaker 2: They don't want to say it.
- 10:16Speaker 5: I say it that we are endowed with our sacred
- 10:20Speaker 5: rights to life, liberty, and not by government, but by
- 10:25Speaker 5: God Almighty himself. And those words rang out from Philadelphia
- 10:34Speaker 5: and launched their revolution, not just in America, but in
- 10:37Speaker 5: the hearts of all humanity. The Principles of the Declaration
- 10:42Speaker 5: of Independence, which is one of three sitting right beautifully
- 10:49Speaker 5: in the Oval Office.
- 10:50Speaker 2: I took it out of the vaults, and it's beautiful.
- 10:54Speaker 5: It's beautifully protected, and it's a magnificent document.
- 10:59Speaker 2: I stare at it all the time, and I read
- 11:01Speaker 2: it as often as I can, a true brilliant work
- 11:06Speaker 2: of art.
- 11:07Speaker 5: They've stirred the spirit of patriots in every nation, liberated
- 11:12Speaker 5: millions from tyranny, and lifted billions from poverty. And it's
- 11:16Speaker 5: doing now more than ever before. We're doing better than
- 11:20Speaker 5: this country's ever done. In one year.
- 11:22Speaker 2: Think of what we can do. We just have to
- 11:23Speaker 2: keep it going. Mister Speaker of you don't mind okay,
- 11:26Speaker 2: got to keep it going.
- 11:30Speaker 4: Referencing speaker Mike Johnson. Speaker Mike Johnson also in attendance.
- 11:34Speaker 4: I have a clip from him as well as I
- 11:36Speaker 4: do from President bukayley from El Salvador who was also there.
- 11:40Speaker 4: But President Trump thanking the First Lady of Nigeria, as
- 11:45Speaker 4: I mentioned.
- 11:47Speaker 2: Again, pretty hard.
- 11:54Speaker 5: But we're honored to be joined today by the First
- 11:57Speaker 5: Lady of Nigeria who also happens to serve as a
- 12:00Speaker 5: Christian pastor at the largest church in Nigeria.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Very respected woman, First Lady, Please where are you? Thank
- 12:13Speaker 2: you very much. It's a great honor. Thank you very much.
- 12:20Speaker 2: Very respected person too, Thank you.
- 12:24Speaker 4: And of course President Trump going into a number of things,
- 12:26Speaker 4: a number of topics, a number of issues that I
- 12:29Speaker 4: think are important. Going to play one more clip before
- 12:31Speaker 4: I get to the clip of Mike Johnson and give
- 12:33Speaker 4: you my thoughts on this. But really it was just
- 12:35Speaker 4: a lot of interesting things that were set.
- 12:38Speaker 2: And I said, you know, it's a really smart guy.
- 12:41Speaker 2: If I ever get this thing, I got to get.
- 12:44Speaker 2: It wasn't easy. You know, they rigged the second election.
- 12:47Speaker 2: I had to win it, had to win it. I
- 12:49Speaker 2: needed it for my own ego. I would have had
- 12:51Speaker 2: a bad ego for the rest of the mint.
- 12:54Speaker 5: Now I really have a big ego. The beating these
- 12:58Speaker 5: beating these lunatics was incredible. What a great feeling winning
- 13:02Speaker 5: every swing, say, winning the popular vote the first time.
- 13:06Speaker 5: You know, they said I didn't win the popular vote.
- 13:08Speaker 5: I did, but they said so, they always say, we
- 13:12Speaker 5: always thought, did introduce me while Donald Trump did not
- 13:15Speaker 5: win the popular vote. You know, I'm sitting up being
- 13:18Speaker 5: introduced by a Democrat or somebody, and.
- 13:22Speaker 2: He said, why Donald Trump did not win the popular vote?
- 13:25Speaker 2: He won? The brothers here he is. I said, I
- 13:28Speaker 2: was terrible. I said, we got to we won the
- 13:30Speaker 2: popular vote by a lot. We didn't want to play
- 13:32Speaker 2: any games. This has been a much different.
- 13:35Speaker 5: We had a great first term, we had the greatest
- 13:38Speaker 5: economy in history.
- 13:39Speaker 2: But this one's going to blow it away already. It's
- 13:41Speaker 2: blown everything away. We have eighteen.
- 13:45Speaker 4: Well, that wasn't the clip that I wanted to go to.
- 13:47Speaker 4: But wise words. Nonetheless, I think this is the one
- 13:51Speaker 4: we were waiting for.
- 13:52Speaker 5: Go ahead now, no matter what we do, this moron,
- 13:58Speaker 5: no matter what it is, we could put them all together.
- 14:02Speaker 5: I think, Mike, what would you say the top five things.
- 14:05Speaker 5: Name them, we'll put them in one bill, and we'll
- 14:08Speaker 5: put them before we get one hundred percent. Except for
- 14:11Speaker 5: this guy named Thomas Massey. There's something wrong with him.
- 14:16Speaker 5: We call him rand Paul Junior. You know, it's like
- 14:19Speaker 5: they just vote no. They love voting now they think
- 14:22Speaker 5: it's good politically. The guy's polling at about nine percent.
- 14:26Speaker 4: Also not the one I was looking for. What's going
- 14:28Speaker 4: on here is then your productor helped me out here? Anyway?
- 14:32Speaker 4: I think there was. Maybe we passed it.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Some major politicians.
- 14:41Speaker 4: Now you let me know when it's ready. Until then
- 14:44Speaker 4: we will get.
- 14:45Speaker 2: To support this exciting renewal.
- 14:46Speaker 5: This morning, I'm praised to announce that on May seventeenth,
- 14:51Speaker 5: twenty six that we're inviting Americans from all across the
- 14:55Speaker 5: country to come together on our national mall to pray,
- 15:00Speaker 5: to give thanks, and to we are going to do
- 15:03Speaker 5: something that everyone said, like that's tough. We're going to
- 15:08Speaker 5: rededicate America as one nation under God.
- 15:12Speaker 2: You know a lot of people now, thank you very much.
- 15:39Speaker 2: It's good. That's what I mean by that's what I
- 15:42Speaker 2: mean by the spirit. It's so incredible to see it.
- 15:44Speaker 2: I see it so much I never seen anything like it.
- 15:47Speaker 2: In one year.
- 15:48Speaker 5: I thought it would take two years, three years, four
- 15:50Speaker 5: years to be where we are. We've done it, and
- 15:53Speaker 5: I mean, really ten months, we're twelve. But now it's
- 15:57Speaker 5: just getting to a level that we've never read before
- 16:00Speaker 5: as a country. But that includes religion, I mean, and
- 16:03Speaker 5: maybe that's part of the reason that we're doing so well.
- 16:05Speaker 5: There's such great spirit. It's all spirit, and it includes religion.
- 16:10Speaker 5: I've always said, you just can't have a great country
- 16:13Speaker 5: if you don't have religion.
- 16:15Speaker 2: You have to believe in something.
- 16:17Speaker 4: You have to believe that.
- 16:18Speaker 2: What we're doing there's a reason for it. There has
- 16:22Speaker 2: to be a reason for it.
- 16:23Speaker 5: We're all working and we're doing would behaving, I mean,
- 16:28Speaker 5: I behave because I'm afraid not to, Okay, because I
- 16:31Speaker 5: don't want.
- 16:32Speaker 2: To get in trouble.
- 16:34Speaker 4: And President Trump looks up, of course when he says
- 16:36Speaker 4: I don't want to get in trouble. And that was
- 16:39Speaker 4: the clip I wanted to play. The other ones where
- 16:40Speaker 4: he's taking shots at everybody else that came afterwards, but
- 16:44Speaker 4: those comments there were part of the opening remarks. I'm
- 16:46Speaker 4: happy to see that this is a part of what
- 16:49Speaker 4: the United States is doing to bring prayer back into schools,
- 16:52Speaker 4: to a public love of God, and into the conversation
- 16:56Speaker 4: this country. People think that the ideal position for the
- 16:59Speaker 4: country is to be one that is godless, where we
- 17:02Speaker 4: never talk about God, we never talk about anything that
- 17:06Speaker 4: has to do with faith, because that's somehow unconstitutional separation
- 17:10Speaker 4: of church and state. And well, that's quite frankly not
- 17:12Speaker 4: the case. It's not what the founders intended, and it's
- 17:14Speaker 4: not even what the lawses. As a matter of fact,
- 17:18Speaker 4: the United States law and British common law, all of
- 17:21Speaker 4: this stuff is based on ten very simple principles known
- 17:25Speaker 4: as the Ten Commandments. Right, that is the basis for
- 17:28Speaker 4: British common law and American common law, which is a
- 17:31Speaker 4: bri byproduct, excuse me of that. So for President Trump
- 17:36Speaker 4: to kind of try and realign and re center this
- 17:38Speaker 4: country on its truest intent, right, which was deism, which
- 17:44Speaker 4: was a belief in God that I think is unmistakable.
- 17:48Speaker 4: And I'm happy, happy to see that happening because I
- 17:51Speaker 4: think we need that. And it always shocks me. It
- 17:54Speaker 4: always did when people would come out and they would
- 17:56Speaker 4: be angry and vitriolic, because this is the government endorsing religion.
- 18:01Speaker 4: This is I mean, come on, right, This country has
- 18:05Speaker 4: always always leaned on religion. The founders themselves were you know,
- 18:11Speaker 4: farmers and this and that, but they almost all went
- 18:13Speaker 4: to church, Almost all of them were leaders in their churches.
- 18:16Speaker 4: People like to point out that Ben Franklin was a
- 18:19Speaker 4: famous deist. He wasn't a part of any church or
- 18:21Speaker 4: anything like that, but even him, in fact he was.
- 18:25Speaker 4: There's lots of writings where he himself admits to be
- 18:29Speaker 4: a God fearing man. He wasn't necessarily, you know, like
- 18:34Speaker 4: many of us, the most devout. But my point was
- 18:39Speaker 4: it wasn't a place where there was a multitude of
- 18:42Speaker 4: multiple religions. There was not right. It was pretty much
- 18:45Speaker 4: all Christianity all the time. And we've been tolerant over
- 18:50Speaker 4: the years to accept everybody right. And we've made the
- 18:54Speaker 4: Constitution as such to say, look, there'll never be a
- 18:57Speaker 4: government endorsement of any religion, but it does mean that
- 19:00Speaker 4: the government won't acknowledge God right. These are two separate
- 19:04Speaker 4: things that have been supported by the Supreme Court. So anyway,
- 19:07Speaker 4: I bring that up to say, it's great that we
- 19:09Speaker 4: have a national Day of Prayer. I'm thinking, man, we
- 19:12Speaker 4: should have a day of prayer every single day, Right,
- 19:14Speaker 4: I try to start my day in prayer. And I
- 19:16Speaker 4: say try to because you know, sometimes it's that oh,
- 19:19Speaker 4: thank you Lord, I can see again. Thanks for my kids.
- 19:22Speaker 4: You know, it's very brief and it's very rudimentary, and
- 19:24Speaker 4: then there's days where it's really intentional and thought out.
- 19:28Speaker 4: I guess that's okay. Right, We're all growing, and we
- 19:30Speaker 4: all grow at a different rate spiritually, and I'm probably
- 19:34Speaker 4: behind the curve on that, just like I'm with a
- 19:36Speaker 4: lot of things.
- 19:36Speaker 2: Right.
- 19:36Speaker 4: I think I'm always behind the curve about something. But
- 19:39Speaker 4: all that being said, I think it's great that President
- 19:41Speaker 4: Trump puts a focus on this, and kudos to him.
- 19:45Speaker 4: Kudos to Jenny Korn who was there as well, the
- 19:49Speaker 4: co director of the White House Office on Faith, who
- 19:51Speaker 4: we found on the show a number of times and
- 19:53Speaker 4: we'll have on again soon. Last thing I want to
- 19:55Speaker 4: do here is play you a clip from Mike Johnson,
- 19:57Speaker 4: the Speaker of the House, because Mike Johnson made some
- 19:59Speaker 4: comment as well at the prayer breakfast that I thought
- 20:02Speaker 4: were important and meaningful.
- 20:04Speaker 6: Listen to this hit that man, thank you so much.
- 20:14Speaker 6: My remarks will be shorter than the intro, I promise.
- 20:18Speaker 6: I'm just grateful to so many of my colleagues from
- 20:20Speaker 6: the House and Senate in both parties, for carrying on
- 20:23Speaker 6: this important tradition for more than seven decades. What a
- 20:27Speaker 6: remarkable thing that is. And so many of them are
- 20:28Speaker 6: here today.
- 20:29Speaker 1: Thank you, guys, all of you. Thank you.
- 20:32Speaker 6: After he served as our sixth President, John Quincy Adams
- 20:36Speaker 6: ran for Congress. No one had done it before and
- 20:38Speaker 6: haven't since, but he ran for Congress with a mission.
- 20:41Speaker 6: He wanted to eradicate slavery. He brought the resolution to
- 20:44Speaker 6: accomplish that mission over and over, but the nation sadly
- 20:47Speaker 6: was not yet ready for it. And on about the
- 20:49Speaker 6: thirteenth try, as the story goes, a young member of
- 20:52Speaker 6: Congress went up to him on the floor in the housefoloor,
- 20:54Speaker 6: and they said, mister President, why are you doing it again?
- 20:57Speaker 6: And he said, young man, listen, duty is ours results
- 21:01Speaker 6: for God's and it's a great and liberating way for
- 21:04Speaker 6: us to live. We believe that as we celebrate the
- 21:06Speaker 6: two hundred and fiftieth anniversary or the greatest nation in
- 21:09Speaker 6: the history of the world, we're so blessed to be here.
- 21:12Speaker 6: We understand that it is a spiritual battle to keep
- 21:16Speaker 6: it and to keep freedom, and we don't take that lightly.
- 21:19Speaker 6: Let's pray together, shall we? Hellnly, Father, thank you so
- 21:23Speaker 6: much for the opportunity. I'm charged with praying this morning
- 21:26Speaker 6: for the nation's leaders, and we just heard from the
- 21:29Speaker 6: most powerful man on the planet, the President of the
- 21:32Speaker 6: United States. God, we are reminded in scripture that you
- 21:35Speaker 6: are the one that raises up those in authority, and
- 21:38Speaker 6: also the words the Truth of Proverbs twenty one says
- 21:42Speaker 6: the king's heart is in the hand of the Lord,
- 21:44Speaker 6: and as the rivers of the water, he turns it
- 21:47Speaker 6: wherever he wills, Father, turn his heart, lead him and
- 21:50Speaker 6: guide him, and protect him. What an important influence he
- 21:54Speaker 6: is on the entire planet. Be with him, walk with him,
- 21:58Speaker 6: and let us be an influence upon him. We pray
- 22:00Speaker 6: that same prayer, or were our Vice President J. D. Vance,
- 22:03Speaker 6: over all of our cabinet secretaries, many of whom are
- 22:06Speaker 6: here with us today, and the heads of leaders of
- 22:08Speaker 6: all of our agencies. We pray for the leaders in
- 22:10Speaker 6: the House and the Sin and all the members who
- 22:14Speaker 6: faithfully and sacrificially serve to try to help and preserve
- 22:17Speaker 6: this great republic. Give us the wisdom and discernment and
- 22:20Speaker 6: the stamina to accomplish that mission. Father, we pray for
- 22:24Speaker 6: all those who serve on the Supreme Court, our lower courts,
- 22:27Speaker 6: the federal courts around the country. We pray for our staffs,
- 22:33Speaker 6: and for the patriots who serve in all of our
- 22:35Speaker 6: agencies and departments. And Lord, I just conclude by the simple,
- 22:39Speaker 6: the simple requests, that you protect them all, that you
- 22:43Speaker 6: give us the wisdom to do the things you've called
- 22:45Speaker 6: us to do, and that you remind us daily that
- 22:48Speaker 6: the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom
- 22:51Speaker 6: and a nation that serves you as the one that
- 22:52Speaker 6: is blessed, and we always be that. I ask and
- 22:55Speaker 6: pray and believe it in Jesus' names.
- 23:01Speaker 4: Well, I think that's a really good thing, fantastic thing. Anyway,
- 23:04Speaker 4: that was Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, some really
- 23:07Speaker 4: wise words. We're going to continue with Speaker Mike Johnson
- 23:10Speaker 4: and pray that that prayer comes to fruition. Plus we've
- 23:13Speaker 4: got a lot more to discuss. Keep it locked right here.
- 23:16Speaker 4: I'm Rich Valdes.
- 23:17Speaker 1: This is America. This is America.
- 23:35Speaker 4: President Donald chicks Rump, Mister President, welcome to the program.
- 23:38Speaker 5: Sir, well, thank you, Rich, and thank you for everything.
- 23:41Speaker 5: I know you very well and I have I listen,
- 23:43Speaker 5: but I have a lot of people that listen and
- 23:46Speaker 5: they love your show, and I appreciate it very much.
- 23:49Speaker 4: Well, I appreciate that too. Send you out, President, then
- 23:51Speaker 4: welcome back to America. I am Rich Valdez Valdeza and
- 23:54Speaker 4: an ass at Rich Valdez on all of the social media,
- 23:56Speaker 4: and it's Thursday. I want to get into some of
- 23:59Speaker 4: this stuff because obviously there's still some National Prayer Breakfast
- 24:02Speaker 4: stuff I want to talk about, as well as what
- 24:05Speaker 4: happened with the Epstein files. Right, the Epstein files. That's
- 24:10Speaker 4: the big story every day, every day, it's the big story.
- 24:13Speaker 4: And you know me, I've said this a lot of times.
- 24:15Speaker 4: I've probably lost a lot of friends, a lot of listeners.
- 24:18Speaker 4: There's so many levels to how I am so uninterested
- 24:21Speaker 4: in this and for so many reasons. I feel like
- 24:24Speaker 4: we apply these unreasonable standards. What do you mean on
- 24:26Speaker 4: reasonable standards? Richer a bunch of pedophiles and the government's
- 24:29Speaker 4: protecting them. Okay, have it your way. I have never
- 24:35Speaker 4: lived a day of my life in a world where
- 24:38Speaker 4: there truly is justice. I'm going to start there. We
- 24:42Speaker 4: have a general sense and semblance of justice. But let's
- 24:47Speaker 4: make no mistake, most people most aren't in jail with
- 24:54Speaker 4: the sons and daughters of the most affluent and powerful.
- 25:00Speaker 4: They're not. So if we start with that premise, now, yes,
- 25:05Speaker 4: on occasion, I have a friend that did some time,
- 25:09Speaker 4: and when he was in prison, he was either in
- 25:13Speaker 4: the cell next to or was some in some close
- 25:17Speaker 4: proximity to Jason Williams, the basketball player who had an
- 25:22Speaker 4: accidental shooting in his house and shot one of his
- 25:25Speaker 4: own bodyguards and the guy died. It was a shotgun
- 25:28Speaker 4: and he went to jail for that. That's an example
- 25:32Speaker 4: of a powerful person that you know, a wealthy person
- 25:35Speaker 4: that ended up paying the price. But it's not always
- 25:40Speaker 4: the case.
- 25:41Speaker 3: Right.
- 25:41Speaker 4: It doesn't mean it's exclusive, but for the most part,
- 25:45Speaker 4: there's a privilege that comes with having money and power.
- 25:50Speaker 4: And I'm not advocating for this right. If I tell
- 25:55Speaker 4: you every day in Chicago people are murdered, I'm not
- 25:59Speaker 4: advocating for anybody's murder in Chicago. I'm telling you the facts.
- 26:05Speaker 4: These are the facts. Bad things happen, things that are
- 26:09Speaker 4: wrong happen, and they happen quite often. We have a
- 26:13Speaker 4: governmental system just as an example, right, one of the
- 26:17Speaker 4: best in the world in my opinion, Few governments, if any,
- 26:21Speaker 4: that I can think of, operate better than ours. Yet
- 26:26Speaker 4: ours has so many problems in so many areas that
- 26:29Speaker 4: need improvement. So with that thinking, we understand that it's
- 26:36Speaker 4: not a perfect system, but it might be the best
- 26:38Speaker 4: one that there is.
- 26:40Speaker 2: Got it.
- 26:41Speaker 4: I could live with that. However, some people really apply
- 26:46Speaker 4: this unreasonable standard, like if they trust some sort of
- 26:50Speaker 4: plan that everything goes away, that if somehow if we
- 26:56Speaker 4: lock up Bill Clinton for being unkarifrico, Right, that's the
- 27:00Speaker 4: term I come up with a guy who likes to
- 27:03Speaker 4: hang on again, I don't know what he did with
- 27:05Speaker 4: underage girls, And the term underage girls is one I
- 27:10Speaker 4: have to get my head around, right, because I don't
- 27:14Speaker 4: particularly have an affinity for girls that are eighteen, nineteen
- 27:17Speaker 4: or twenty or twenty one, twenty two, twenty three, girls
- 27:20Speaker 4: in their thirties for me, or even that young, right,
- 27:23Speaker 4: But some guys do. I don't think that's pedophilia. I
- 27:28Speaker 4: think they'd like younger girls. That's my take on that.
- 27:34Speaker 4: It's not for me. But I'm not going to criticize
- 27:36Speaker 4: them for it being for them. Right, Some guys like
- 27:40Speaker 4: heavier set women, some people like very thin women. Everybody
- 27:44Speaker 4: has a different taste. Now, if a girl is seventeen
- 27:47Speaker 4: years old and she's on one of these things, and
- 27:50Speaker 4: I think that was the case for many, that they
- 27:53Speaker 4: were in that range, this is to me, this is
- 27:57Speaker 4: not the same as saying, get me a six year
- 27:59Speaker 4: old that's sick. Somebody being attracted to a fully developed
- 28:04Speaker 4: teenage girl that doesn't live at home. I'm not saying
- 28:07Speaker 4: it's right. I'm sure it's still illegal, it's statutory rape,
- 28:10Speaker 4: all of those things. But it doesn't make you, in
- 28:14Speaker 4: my opinion, a child predator. It makes you again unkatifrico.
- 28:20Speaker 4: It makes you, you know, a pervert, It makes you whatever,
- 28:24Speaker 4: you know, somebody who's into younger girls. I don't believe
- 28:28Speaker 4: the even the medical and legal term is pedophile. Right.
- 28:33Speaker 4: These are not children, they're not pre pubescent. That's the
- 28:35Speaker 4: word I'm looking for. So again, Bill Clinton does not
- 28:41Speaker 4: strike me as somebody who enjoys doing things with children, right.
- 28:47Speaker 4: He strikes me as a tremendous playboy who had a
- 28:51Speaker 4: tough time saying no, I knew somebody was a cameraman
- 28:57Speaker 4: who was in his presence once said that women were
- 29:01Speaker 4: on a receiving line to say hello to him in
- 29:03Speaker 4: a pretty major event, and more than one he could
- 29:08Speaker 4: hear them because he was in earshot, making very serious
- 29:12Speaker 4: passes at him, like can you have a minute? Can
- 29:15Speaker 4: we go to the back? That time one even gave
- 29:19Speaker 4: the president undergarments in a handshake. Again, hearsake from this
- 29:28Speaker 4: cameraman who worked for a cable network. Interesting stuff. So,
- 29:35Speaker 4: if it's getting thrown at you all the time and
- 29:38Speaker 4: you're Bill Clinton, hey, perhaps that there's a moment where
- 29:42Speaker 4: you're gonna say ah, right, okay, right, you know, and
- 29:46Speaker 4: you give in. I get it. I'm not saying I
- 29:48Speaker 4: condone that either. I'm just saying it's understandable. Right, He's
- 29:51Speaker 4: a man, he's human, it's the flesh. I get it.
- 29:56Speaker 4: But I bring all this up not to defend Bill Clinton.
- 29:58Speaker 4: It's not my point. When I've defended anything that seems
- 30:01Speaker 4: like I'm defending the other side. It's because I'm trying
- 30:04Speaker 4: to get to the truth right and to make things
- 30:08Speaker 4: make sense, And for things to make sense, we have
- 30:11Speaker 4: to look at it for what it is. What benefit
- 30:14Speaker 4: comes from Bill Clinton coming to this trial a lot
- 30:17Speaker 4: of political benefit. For sure. Trump gets to bring him in,
- 30:21Speaker 4: he gets to tweet, he gets to raise some money,
- 30:23Speaker 4: he gets to shift momentum to our side. That's right,
- 30:26Speaker 4: we're bringing them in. Next step orange jump suits. I
- 30:29Speaker 4: told you I was going to train the swamp. We're
- 30:31Speaker 4: getting results, right. This is all good political stuff. In actuality,
- 30:38Speaker 4: it's not really much of anything, all right. James Comer
- 30:41Speaker 4: and his committees may get some information out of this.
- 30:46Speaker 4: I can't put my finger on exactly what is what.
- 30:51Speaker 4: If there were criminality here, it would be the FBI
- 30:55Speaker 4: and federal law enforcement that would be conducting these interrogations. Right,
- 31:01Speaker 4: These are hearings. This is a political process. So I
- 31:07Speaker 4: know oftentimes people hear the word hearing and then they
- 31:10Speaker 4: hear criminal referral, and it gets certain people excited as
- 31:14Speaker 4: if this thing that we all desperately want justice is
- 31:19Speaker 4: going to be done. And perhaps it's me the jade
- 31:23Speaker 4: of New Yorker. I just don't believe it's done. I
- 31:26Speaker 4: don't believe I live in a world where Bill Clinton
- 31:29Speaker 4: is somehow going to be jailed for going on private
- 31:32Speaker 4: jets with a guy that sold women of all ages
- 31:36Speaker 4: and somehow he's going to get in trouble for that.
- 31:41Speaker 4: I don't see it right. People said that Matt Gates
- 31:45Speaker 4: did this. Now they're saying Congressman Corey Mills did this.
- 31:48Speaker 4: Not Epstein, but going on private jets with girls that
- 31:51Speaker 4: were younger than eighteen. Okay, I'm not here to say
- 31:56Speaker 4: they did or didn't do it. I am going to
- 31:58Speaker 4: say this seems to be a frequent allegation. We saw
- 32:01Speaker 4: this happen with Mike Tyson. We've seen this happen with
- 32:03Speaker 4: a lot of people, people saying that they did something
- 32:06Speaker 4: when a person is wealthy and powerful. So bottom line here,
- 32:11Speaker 4: people are getting all bent out of shape because President
- 32:15Speaker 4: Trump tells a reporter in press conference that he, you know,
- 32:19Speaker 4: he doesn't like the idea that they're coming after Clinton.
- 32:22Speaker 4: And they're saying, oh, now President Trump's defending the pedophiles. No,
- 32:26Speaker 4: he's not defending the pedophiles. Is that President Trump understands
- 32:29Speaker 4: that there's a whole world ahead of us and some
- 32:31Speaker 4: people are stuck looking in the rearview mirror. All right,
- 32:35Speaker 4: listen to this. It bothers me that somebody is going
- 32:39Speaker 4: after Bill Clinton.
- 32:40Speaker 2: NBC News broke the story today.
- 32:42Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw it that the Democrats
- 32:43Speaker 4: are already saying, if you bring President Bill Clinton and
- 32:46Speaker 4: he has to testify, we're bringing President Trump.
- 32:49Speaker 2: I think they might say that.
- 32:51Speaker 5: You know, it bothers me that somebody's going after Bill Clinton.
- 32:55Speaker 2: See, I like Bill Clinton.
- 32:56Speaker 1: I still like b What do you like about him?
- 32:59Speaker 2: I like, well, I liked his behavior towards me. I
- 33:03Speaker 2: thought he got me, he understood me. Why is the
- 33:05Speaker 2: president bothered that they're investigating Bill Clinton?
- 33:09Speaker 4: So why is the president bothered? Well, I'll tell you why,
- 33:13Speaker 4: because again, President Trump, he's truly putting America first. He's
- 33:18Speaker 4: truly thinking like a businessman. When you're a businessman, right,
- 33:22Speaker 4: one of the things they tell you first and foremost
- 33:24Speaker 4: is the customer is always right. Now. Why do they
- 33:27Speaker 4: say that? Do they say that because they think the
- 33:29Speaker 4: customer truly is always right.
- 33:31Speaker 5: Right.
- 33:31Speaker 4: You go to your fix your car, talk to the mechanic,
- 33:34Speaker 4: you don't like what the mechanic says. You start freaking out.
- 33:36Speaker 4: The customer's right now. Of course the customer is not
- 33:38Speaker 4: actually right, But you have to take the approach to
- 33:41Speaker 4: the customer's right why to stay in business? That's how
- 33:45Speaker 4: it works. You can't get in the business of pissing
- 33:47Speaker 4: customers off, because it's just like the eye for an
- 33:51Speaker 4: eye philosophy. Eventually everyone will be blind. There'll be no
- 33:56Speaker 4: more eyes left. This is why we need forgiveness. This
- 34:00Speaker 4: is why we need the customers always right. President Trump
- 34:03Speaker 4: understands this because he understands when you're in business for yourself,
- 34:06Speaker 4: it's a long term thing. Nobody's paying your pension. When
- 34:09Speaker 4: you're in business for yourself, nobody does anything for you
- 34:13Speaker 4: but for your customers and your ability to earn money.
- 34:16Speaker 4: And if you want to continue to earn money all
- 34:19Speaker 4: the time, forever and ever and ever. Amen, you have
- 34:23Speaker 4: to make sure that the customer is always right. You
- 34:25Speaker 4: have to focus on their satisfaction and their referrals and
- 34:28Speaker 4: make sure they come back. Now, you guys have heard
- 34:30Speaker 4: me talk about my business interest in a small jewelry
- 34:35Speaker 4: business in Bergen County, New Jersey, and that's one of
- 34:40Speaker 4: those businesses. It's just like that somebody comes in. You
- 34:44Speaker 4: can't hit them over the head because you may never
- 34:46Speaker 4: see them again. It's actually quite the opposite. You want
- 34:49Speaker 4: to make sure that you give them the best service
- 34:51Speaker 4: because if they're coming in and buying a vintage Rolex watch.
- 34:54Speaker 4: If they're buying a gold ring, a bracelet and earring,
- 34:57Speaker 4: they're getting a piece of jewelry fixed, whatever it is.
- 35:01Speaker 4: You may not make top dollar on this, but the
- 35:04Speaker 4: important thing is to start to forge a relationship so
- 35:07Speaker 4: they'll keep coming back to you. That's the whole game.
- 35:12Speaker 4: President Trump understands that. That's why he puts America first.
- 35:17Speaker 4: And he says, I'm bothered by this. It's not about
- 35:20Speaker 4: them coming after him. It's about this constant witch hunt.
- 35:24Speaker 4: What they did to him. He doesn't want to do
- 35:27Speaker 4: it to others. And it makes sense. If you're gonna
- 35:30Speaker 4: sit here and come after every last president, presidents won't
- 35:33Speaker 4: A they won't be able to govern, and B people
- 35:35Speaker 4: will qualified people will stop wanting to be president. It
- 35:40Speaker 4: will have a truly chilling effect. So it makes all
- 35:45Speaker 4: the sense in the world to me that he says, look,
- 35:47Speaker 4: I like Bill Clinton. You know, I think most people
- 35:50Speaker 4: like Bill Clinton. I think Bill Clinton is still and
- 35:52Speaker 4: I'm not saying I do. I don't know Bill Clinton.
- 35:55Speaker 4: And I was once invited to something and honestly I
- 35:58Speaker 4: didn't even go because I was just like, you know, what,
- 36:00Speaker 4: what am I gonna do? Sit there, and you know,
- 36:03Speaker 4: I was very young, and I thought to myself, I
- 36:07Speaker 4: don't agree with him on much. I don't see how
- 36:09Speaker 4: we're gonna get much done here, and I probably won't
- 36:11Speaker 4: have much face time with him. I'm going to be
- 36:13Speaker 4: in a room filled with Democrats. Doesn't sound like a
- 36:15Speaker 4: good time to me. So I opted not to go.
- 36:18Speaker 4: But it was one of those things where post president,
- 36:21Speaker 4: so you know, it was gonna be easier to speak
- 36:23Speaker 4: with him and probably get a picture and stuff like that.
- 36:26Speaker 4: But and looking back, I regret it. I probably should
- 36:29Speaker 4: have went. I probably knew half the Democrats in that
- 36:31Speaker 4: room because small world, you know. But anyway, long story short,
- 36:36Speaker 4: Trump gets it. And this this idea that we should
- 36:41Speaker 4: stay here and live on the Epstein files for me,
- 36:46Speaker 4: non starter. I know, change the channel. Valdez, he's one
- 36:50Speaker 4: of them. Yes, I am listen. I saw somebody today say,
- 36:53Speaker 4: don't let them fool you. All this gu three stuff
- 36:56Speaker 4: about this woman that was kidnapped. This is all but
- 36:59Speaker 4: distracting you from the Epstein files. I'm just gonna give
- 37:03Speaker 4: you my perspective, just an honest take from me. This
- 37:06Speaker 4: is the truth. I find zero entertainment value in talking
- 37:11Speaker 4: about this Bill Clinton stuff, I mean Epstein stuff. I truly, truly,
- 37:16Speaker 4: in my heart of hearts, I feel badly for any woman,
- 37:19Speaker 4: any boy, any human being that was trafficked and abused
- 37:24Speaker 4: and anything like that. I really do. But there are
- 37:29Speaker 4: so many people that go through that and we don't
- 37:33Speaker 4: talk about it all day. It's there's a fascination with
- 37:36Speaker 4: this one pimp and this one Madam Epstein and Geelane Maxwell.
- 37:42Speaker 4: Why why is there such a fascination with these two
- 37:46Speaker 4: in particular. I'm gonna use a line I use every
- 37:52Speaker 4: now and again, Blame the Jews, right, you always want
- 37:54Speaker 4: to blame the Jews, And that's usually what it is.
- 37:57Speaker 4: Because he's Mosad, because he's this, because he's because the CIA,
- 38:01Speaker 4: because the This is what Bongino talks about, right, the
- 38:05Speaker 4: black pillars. It's true, some people they took the red
- 38:10Speaker 4: pill just so that they could become black pillars. It's
- 38:14Speaker 4: a brilliant term that he's come up with. But and
- 38:16Speaker 4: he's one hundred percent right. Some people, and before that
- 38:20Speaker 4: it was Mark Levin always called them malcontents, and that's
- 38:23Speaker 4: that is what they're called, and that's what they are,
- 38:24Speaker 4: and it's it's a perfect descriptor. Some people are never happy,
- 38:31Speaker 4: like they thrive in being unhappy. This is what they
- 38:34Speaker 4: want whatever you tell them. They're upset. Perfect example. I
- 38:39Speaker 4: have the audio, but it's got curses in it, and
- 38:41Speaker 4: I didn't want to play it with curses. And I've
- 38:43Speaker 4: been having a lot of issues with production people and stuff,
- 38:46Speaker 4: so I said, you know what, let me not use
- 38:48Speaker 4: it just yet. But long story short. Robert Reich, he
- 38:54Speaker 4: was one of the Democrats economic people, and and an
- 38:58Speaker 4: organization called ap No not like lies but like sent
- 39:02Speaker 4: there for American progressivism or progress something like that. They
- 39:07Speaker 4: put out this thing and they said that's and it's
- 39:09Speaker 4: these people claim to be right. It's like a white
- 39:12Speaker 4: guy with a beard and long hair. He's driving to
- 39:14Speaker 4: pick up and he's like, you know Trump. He's got
- 39:16Speaker 4: like a Southern accent. He's like, you know Trump, I
- 39:18Speaker 4: voted for you, man, voted for you more than once.
- 39:21Speaker 4: But this time he done did it?
- 39:23Speaker 2: Man?
- 39:23Speaker 4: You said we were gonna get no tax on tips.
- 39:26Speaker 4: You said no tax on overtime. Well guess what, Golly,
- 39:30Speaker 4: they're taxing us and our tips and overtime. And he
- 39:33Speaker 4: goes on this rant and then it's like a montage
- 39:36Speaker 4: of people going yeah, that's right, blah blah blah, and
- 39:39Speaker 4: of course, Q the panic gallery, you've got people all
- 39:44Speaker 4: in the comments saying yep, yep, Well I warned you.
- 39:47Speaker 4: You should have known. The guy's a fell in thirty
- 39:50Speaker 4: four counts. What do you expect he's he's been found
- 39:53Speaker 4: guilty of sexual abuse. Blah blah blah blah blah blah
- 39:56Speaker 4: blah blah blah. Right, same old stuff that we usually
- 39:58Speaker 4: talk about. And why do I I say it that
- 40:00Speaker 4: way so flippantly minimizing it, because these were quite actually
- 40:06Speaker 4: manufactured offenses. There is not another human being on this earth,
- 40:11Speaker 4: not another country, not in this country, who was ever
- 40:15Speaker 4: found guilty of sexual abuse in a case that was
- 40:19Speaker 4: otherwise dismissed, in a case where he was otherwise found
- 40:23Speaker 4: not guilty of touching this woman, but the term they
- 40:27Speaker 4: gave it because he said she was ugly, was sexual abuse.
- 40:32Speaker 4: So now people are going to use this and say
- 40:34Speaker 4: that Trump was found guilty of sexual abuse, which I
- 40:37Speaker 4: guess on paper is technically accurate, but in reality it's
- 40:41Speaker 4: because some judge who didn't like Trump agreed that when
- 40:45Speaker 4: Trump said I would never mess with that lady, she's
- 40:48Speaker 4: ugly that that is somehow tantamount to sexual abuse. So yes,
- 40:54Speaker 4: when I say these are made up crimes, this is
- 40:56Speaker 4: not being a sycophantic of El Trumpito. This is just
- 41:04Speaker 4: calling a spade a spade. They made stuff up, and
- 41:09Speaker 4: they did it for this purpose. Thirty four felon accounts
- 41:13Speaker 4: for one crime, and it wasn't even a crime. It
- 41:17Speaker 4: was a misdemeanor that they couldn't prove that. The federal
- 41:20Speaker 4: government said, that's a federal issue, and we're choosing not
- 41:23Speaker 4: to prosecute because it's not a big deal. It was
- 41:25Speaker 4: a clerical thing. And guess what. The state of New
- 41:28Speaker 4: York decided to change their minds. The City of New
- 41:31Speaker 4: York went after him, pursuing this, changing their laws, having
- 41:35Speaker 4: a federal prosecutor resign his office to come and oversee
- 41:42Speaker 4: the prosecution as a city prosecutor. You're gonna tell me
- 41:45Speaker 4: they didn't jump through hoops to make this thing happen.
- 41:50Speaker 4: Why is it that Pump Trump had a public trial
- 41:55Speaker 4: in New York City? It was gridlocked, it was on TV,
- 41:58Speaker 4: the famous mugshot. All of that, right, remember that I
- 42:00Speaker 4: do like yesterday? And guess what all of that for?
- 42:04Speaker 4: Political purposes, so they could say he's a thirty four
- 42:08Speaker 4: count and blah blah blah to get what nothing. They
- 42:11Speaker 4: got nothing out of it, except every time they want
- 42:16Speaker 4: AMMO to go after him for anything. It's this. So
- 42:21Speaker 4: bottom line here is this isn't about defending Epstein. This
- 42:24Speaker 4: isn't about defending Trump and his crimes. This is just
- 42:26Speaker 4: about a pursuit for the truth. If we're going to
- 42:30Speaker 4: say it about one, we got to say it about
- 42:31Speaker 4: the other. Right, Like the old saying, if it's good
- 42:33Speaker 4: for the goose, it's got to be good for the gander,
- 42:35Speaker 4: And that's what Trump is saying about Epstein, I mean
- 42:37Speaker 4: about Clinton. I never wanted to be lost on anyone
- 42:42Speaker 4: that Epstein was caught for his crimes, put in prison
- 42:46Speaker 4: for his crimes, and whether you believe it or not,
- 42:50Speaker 4: died in jail, whether he was murdered in jail, whether
- 42:55Speaker 4: he was body doubled and cloned, and all that. I
- 43:00Speaker 4: can never go down these rabbit holes. I'm not saying
- 43:03Speaker 4: it's not true. I'm just saying, when I start to
- 43:05Speaker 4: play that game where I say, well, of course it's possible, well,
- 43:09Speaker 4: if anything is possible, we could come up with a
- 43:13Speaker 4: story for anything, if that's the way you're gonna live life,
- 43:15Speaker 4: and say, well, it's possible that you know that they
- 43:18Speaker 4: went in there and the cameras didn't work. They could
- 43:20Speaker 4: have put somebody other body in there. This guy had
- 43:22Speaker 4: billions of dollars. He could just be sitting pretty somewhere.
- 43:25Speaker 1: He could.
- 43:27Speaker 4: But what does that do for anything? Doesn't do anything
- 43:30Speaker 4: for me, doesn't do anything for anybody, for us to
- 43:33Speaker 4: sit here and spend our lives thinking, you know, on
- 43:36Speaker 4: a daily basis, I talk to people, whether it's on
- 43:38Speaker 4: this program or in real life, in my private life,
- 43:42Speaker 4: my family, whomever. And some of the same people that
- 43:47Speaker 4: love the Q andon trust the plan minda some of
- 43:52Speaker 4: those same people will sit there and complain that, you know,
- 43:57Speaker 4: all Bill and Hillary don't want to come in for
- 44:00Speaker 4: a whatever. And then when they find out, yes, Bill
- 44:03Speaker 4: and Hillary are coming in, they've changed their mind, change
- 44:06Speaker 4: of heart. Now they're coming in because they want to
- 44:08Speaker 4: set the record straight. They turn right around and say yes.
- 44:12Speaker 4: They get excited. It's like a giddy feeling, like kids
- 44:15Speaker 4: in a candy store. They're excited. Why because this is
- 44:18Speaker 4: like watching sports for them, This is like hearing that
- 44:22Speaker 4: their team just made the playoffs, and it's headed to
- 44:24Speaker 4: the big game at the end. And this is why
- 44:29Speaker 4: I don't go into this stuff. This what about what
- 44:32Speaker 4: if it's possible. It's a zero sum game with zero winning.
- 44:40Speaker 4: There's no win at the end of that. Other than saying, yeah, yeah,
- 44:44Speaker 4: I can't trust my government. Oh you'll never understand. Oh
- 44:47Speaker 4: I don't expect you to understand. Right, You just minimize
- 44:50Speaker 4: other people. You maximize the issue that's in front of
- 44:54Speaker 4: you that isn't even affecting you. I mean, call me
- 44:58Speaker 4: selfish or crazy, but if I am not, Jeffrey Epstein
- 45:04Speaker 4: being dead or alive does zero for me. He was
- 45:09Speaker 4: getting the justice that was served to him. He was
- 45:14Speaker 4: in jail, and I doubt he was ever going to
- 45:16Speaker 4: get out boom if he now period the end. So anyway,
- 45:21Speaker 4: I'm not saying I'm not going to talk about it.
- 45:22Speaker 4: As it comes up, we'll talk about it. You know,
- 45:25Speaker 4: they pulled a few little tricks. Whoever pulled them, whether
- 45:28Speaker 4: it was the Democrats back in the days or the
- 45:31Speaker 4: Republicans deciding to include them, who knows, But people calling
- 45:34Speaker 4: the FBI tipline saying things so that the tip line
- 45:38Speaker 4: information could be released by the government that make it
- 45:40Speaker 4: look like it's part of the quote unquote Epstein files.
- 45:44Speaker 4: When these are just, in my opinion, staged calls and
- 45:47Speaker 4: reports so that they could be part of the public record.
- 45:52Speaker 4: What does that do for me? Nothing? I could care
- 45:55Speaker 4: less about that. Now it's true my own personal perspective,
- 46:01Speaker 4: I really just don't. I don't care. I mean, I
- 46:05Speaker 4: don't know how many ways I could say that, and
- 46:07Speaker 4: maybe it's it's wrong or crass. I care about these people,
- 46:11Speaker 4: but me caring about that doesn't mean anything for the other.
- 46:17Speaker 4: And this is why I think what we're conflating. I mean,
- 46:19Speaker 4: some people feel like they've got their panties in a
- 46:21Speaker 4: bunch because they're like, I can't believe these kids are
- 46:23Speaker 4: being trafficked and these people are monsters. And then it
- 46:25Speaker 4: goes a step further. They're eating the children, They're hurting
- 46:28Speaker 4: the children. Listen. I don't I don't put that past anybody.
- 46:32Speaker 4: I believe that these people are bad.
- 46:36Speaker 7: You know that.
- 46:37Speaker 4: I mean a few months ago and several times over
- 46:41Speaker 4: the last few years. Every few months, I go back
- 46:44Speaker 4: to a clip and if we have it, I'm gonna
- 46:46Speaker 4: play for you today. It's a news clip. It's a
- 46:49Speaker 4: local news affiliate that says that in an arrest of
- 46:53Speaker 4: some MS thirteen gangsters, they discovered that they were actively
- 47:00Speaker 4: engaged in Satanic worship. Now this isn't just me telling
- 47:05Speaker 4: you that I got it from the news. All right,
- 47:07Speaker 4: let's see if you find the clip. All Right, you
- 47:10Speaker 4: got it? Okay, let her rip. I'm ready when you are.
- 47:14Speaker 8: Go ahead to a developing story on a teenage girl
- 47:18Speaker 8: found dead off the Beltway. The two teen men arrested
- 47:22Speaker 8: in this case, alleged gang members, went before a judge
- 47:25Speaker 8: earlier today and we are now learning new details about
- 47:27Speaker 8: what led up to the murder. That girl was found
- 47:30Speaker 8: off of the Beltway on Sharp Crest, February sixteenth. Channel
- 47:33Speaker 8: Who's phill Archer live with what happened in court today, phil.
- 47:38Speaker 2: Well.
- 47:38Speaker 3: Police still don't know the victim's name. She is a
- 47:41Speaker 3: teenager allegedly murdered because she insulted Satan. Her accused killers
- 47:46Speaker 3: members of a notorious street gang that in recent months
- 47:48Speaker 3: seem to have grown even more violent. The case against
- 47:53Speaker 3: Miguel aghil A Loares Flores and Diego Alexander Hernandez Rivera
- 47:58Speaker 3: rusts on the testimony of a teenage girl a girl
- 48:01Speaker 3: police say was abducted, raped, and then held as a
- 48:04Speaker 3: prisoner by the MS thirteen street gang.
- 48:07Speaker 4: The Girl Toe Belice.
- 48:08Speaker 3: She was held along with another young woman she knew
- 48:10Speaker 3: only by the name of Genesis, at an apartment where
- 48:13Speaker 3: the men lived and where they directed a Satanic shrine.
- 48:17Speaker 3: On February sixteenth, the Girl Toe police Genesis denounced the
- 48:21Speaker 3: shrine and a short time later disappeared. Her body was
- 48:24Speaker 3: found dumped in the street. She'd been shot in the
- 48:27Speaker 3: head and stomach. That killing allegedly ordered by Alvarez Flores
- 48:31Speaker 3: to appease the devil.
- 48:33Speaker 9: He gave orders to the co definant to kill the
- 48:36Speaker 9: female that we know as Genesis. Codefindant Diego Rivera gave
- 48:40Speaker 9: a statement to police stating that he fired the weapon.
- 48:43Speaker 3: Defense attorney Emily Toto was appointing today to defend Hernandez Rivera.
- 48:48Speaker 10: I'm really hesitant to ever call a statement of confession.
- 48:51Speaker 3: It's just the latest round of violence attributed to MS thirteen,
- 48:55Speaker 3: a Salvadoran street gang declared by the US State Department
- 48:58Speaker 3: to be a terrorist group. Over the last year, about
- 49:01Speaker 3: half a dozen killings have been attributed to the gang
- 49:04Speaker 3: in Harris and Fort Benn County example, Omar Torres Rubio
- 49:09Speaker 3: charged with the murder of a rival gang member. Last year,
- 49:12Speaker 3: he allegedly ordered the murder of a witness from his
- 49:15Speaker 3: cell inside the Harris County jail. He's now charged with capital.
- 49:19Speaker 10: We're going to go after them hard, and that investigation
- 49:22Speaker 10: is ongoing. They're vicious and we're not going to talk
- 49:25Speaker 10: much about that investigation because it's extremely sensitive and we're
- 49:28Speaker 10: dealing with some pretty hardcore gang bangers.
- 49:32Speaker 3: And four other alleged gang members were also arrested in
- 49:35Speaker 3: connection with the murder of the girl called Genesis. At
- 49:37Speaker 3: this point, they have not yet been charged in this case.
- 49:40Speaker 3: Reporting live in Southwest Houston, I'm Phil Archer KPRC Channel
- 49:43Speaker 3: two years.
- 49:45Speaker 4: So, yeah, that was nearly eight years ago to the day,
- 49:50Speaker 4: right it February of twenty twenty six. That was in
- 49:53Speaker 4: February of twenty eighteen. Oh, how time flies now, listen.
- 50:00Speaker 4: I didn't make that up. These guys they were kidnapping
- 50:04Speaker 4: these girls and sacrificing them for Satan. That was their
- 50:07Speaker 4: satanic ritual. I didn't make it up. That's the thing.
- 50:12Speaker 4: And that was CBS News in Houston reporting that story.
- 50:15Speaker 4: And you know who else is talking about this. Just
- 50:18Speaker 4: recently today the President of El Salvador himself, Naive bu
- 50:23Speaker 4: Keyley listen to this at the National Prayer Breakfast.
- 50:27Speaker 7: Many people don't know that our enemy was not just
- 50:30Speaker 7: the flesh and blood, but it's spiritual as well. The
- 50:33Speaker 7: gangs didn't just murder, rape, extort, They also worshiped Satan
- 50:39Speaker 7: straight up. Literally, When we went to their homes to
- 50:44Speaker 7: arrest them, we discovered altars they'd be used for Satanic rituals.
- 50:51Speaker 7: This is well documented. We put up the pictures the
- 50:54Speaker 7: videos right away, but for some reason, the global mainstream
- 50:58Speaker 7: media didn't think it was worth it to cover it.
- 51:02Speaker 7: But we know gangs and an Salvador were Satanic and
- 51:07Speaker 7: they worshiped Satan, and some of those gangs are here
- 51:10Speaker 7: in the United States.
- 51:12Speaker 4: Well, how you like them apples? Huh wow? Now listen.
- 51:17Speaker 4: I had really never listened to much of his commentary
- 51:20Speaker 4: on that before. I know he'd had a couple of
- 51:22Speaker 4: sit down interviews in the past discussing this. But it's
- 51:25Speaker 4: something I knew because I pay attention to the news,
- 51:28Speaker 4: and I thought it was wild. But this satanic ritual
- 51:32Speaker 4: stuff with the MS thirteen people is real and again
- 51:36Speaker 4: not a rumor. So isn't it interesting how we start
- 51:39Speaker 4: with Jeffrey Epstein and we finished with satanic gangsters Salvadorians.
- 51:45Speaker 4: I guess it's fitting right now to me. I could
- 51:48Speaker 4: talk about the satanic stuff all day. Why because I
- 51:50Speaker 4: bet you, if you're listening to this program the Epstein stuff,
- 51:52Speaker 4: you could tune out. Man, it becomes white noise after
- 51:54Speaker 4: a while. But you start talking about satanic altars kidnapping,
- 51:58Speaker 4: you know, sixteen year old girls to sacrifice them. This
- 52:02Speaker 4: is very interesting stuff. Now do they go hand in
- 52:05Speaker 4: hand with the Epstein stuff? Sure they do. I have
- 52:08Speaker 4: no question that, no doubt. I should say in my
- 52:11Speaker 4: mind that these guys are hired to do the dirty work,
- 52:15Speaker 4: or are in charge of doing the dirty work, or
- 52:17Speaker 4: maybe they're the customers saying, hey, we need these girls
- 52:20Speaker 4: to do X, Y and Z. I don't know how
- 52:22Speaker 4: it works, but I can guarantee you birds of a
- 52:24Speaker 4: feather flock together. Whether you're a billionaire financier like Jeffrey
- 52:28Speaker 4: Epstein that owns an island then a private jet, or
- 52:30Speaker 4: a couple of common thugs with teardrop tattoos on their faces.
- 52:33Speaker 4: Either way, if you're both in the business of kidnapping
- 52:36Speaker 4: sixteen year olds and sacrifice them for one reason or another.
- 52:42Speaker 4: Then seems to me that you guys are birds of
- 52:44Speaker 4: a feather. Anyway, we're gonna wrap this thing up with
- 52:46Speaker 4: some of President Trump's final comments at the National Prayer Breakfast,
- 52:49Speaker 4: as well as a few other thoughts and what we
- 52:51Speaker 4: could look forward to tomorrow and next week. We're gonna
- 52:55Speaker 4: do some Guthrie tomorrow, talk a little bit about this
- 52:57Speaker 4: case and some of the developments that are goinging on
- 53:00Speaker 4: every day. There is a little bit more of a trickle.
- 53:02Speaker 4: My thoughts and prayers are with the Guthrie family and
- 53:05Speaker 4: that woman, mainly the woman. My goodness, this woman's eighty
- 53:08Speaker 4: four years old. And uh, you know who even thinks
- 53:13Speaker 4: of things like this, of harming an eighty four year
- 53:16Speaker 4: old woman. Disgusting. Anyway, keep it locked right here on,
- 53:18Speaker 4: Rich valdesk.
- 53:20Speaker 1: This is America. This is America. He's making podcasting great again.
- 53:35Speaker 1: This is America with Rich Valdez.
- 53:48Speaker 4: All right, he goes, I am here. We continue our
- 53:51Speaker 4: conversation and and trumpitos and all this. Magnus the forty
- 53:56Speaker 4: fifth and forty seventh President of these United States, president.
- 54:01Speaker 4: He had a couple of words about being street smart
- 54:06Speaker 4: at the at the National Prayer Breakfast. And I'm stalling
- 54:11Speaker 4: here because I'm buying some times, as you would think,
- 54:16Speaker 4: the audio isn't ready. Yes, sir, re all right, I
- 54:21Speaker 4: think we got it. Now stand by stand by for
- 54:25Speaker 4: El Trumpito discussing street smarts. And he's actually standing right
- 54:30Speaker 4: next to the President of El Salvador.
- 54:33Speaker 5: Naive Bukeley, you will not send your good people to
- 54:37Speaker 5: the United States, wouldn't you say?
- 54:40Speaker 2: Look at him?
- 54:40Speaker 5: He said one score there, but no, he sends bad
- 54:45Speaker 5: people to.
- 54:46Speaker 2: The United States. And I'm gonna talk to him after this,
- 54:49Speaker 2: but I love him.
- 54:50Speaker 5: He's done a great job, right, He's not gonna he's not.
- 54:54Speaker 5: There's one people and they're very street wise. You know,
- 54:57Speaker 5: when you're running some of these countries and South America,
- 55:01Speaker 5: Latin America, you gotta be street wise.
- 55:03Speaker 2: You gotta be smart, you.
- 55:06Speaker 4: Gotta be smart. Listen. El trouan Vito is a smart guy.
- 55:09Speaker 4: Sometimes I question what he's doing, and usually I understand it.
- 55:14Speaker 4: A little bit late doesn't mean I agree, but it
- 55:16Speaker 4: means I understand it right. And like, for the life
- 55:19Speaker 4: of me, I don't know why he extends an olive
- 55:21Speaker 4: branch to zorin Mamdani, but not one to Bad Bunny.
- 55:26Speaker 4: You would think, if your numbers are in the tank
- 55:29Speaker 4: with Hispanics, and you have an opportunity to potentially make
- 55:35Speaker 4: an ally of Bad Bunny, then why wouldn't you? And
- 55:40Speaker 4: the reason I say that as some of you who
- 55:42Speaker 4: are freaking out saying, what do you mean the guy
- 55:43Speaker 4: where his dresses listen? I actually listened to Bad Buddies music,
- 55:47Speaker 4: I really, do you know me? I listened to all
- 55:49Speaker 4: sorts of reggaetong in my free time. And I'll tell
- 55:52Speaker 4: you this. I did not listen to him when he
- 55:57Speaker 4: was wearing dresses some of the Yeah, but and again
- 56:01Speaker 4: it wasn't like he wore dresses every day. He did
- 56:04Speaker 4: a video and a couple of public performances, but that
- 56:09Speaker 4: was enough, right A couple of met galas wearing you know,
- 56:11Speaker 4: provocative dressed looking clothing to say, hey, this guy's packing

- 56:30Speaker 4: so has President Trump. And I would think that there
- 56:34Speaker 4: are so many areas there. You know, over the summer,
- 56:36Speaker 4: President Trump fired a lot of people from the Puerto
- 56:40Speaker 4: Rico Power and Electric Authority. Well, Bad Bunny has a
- 56:46Speaker 4: whole song called Lagon the Blackout, the shut Off. It's
- 56:51Speaker 4: about the power going out on the island. And again,
- 56:55Speaker 4: this is his political statement. Right, most people just think, oh,
- 56:58Speaker 4: he's singing about the times and right, because he's not
- 57:01Speaker 4: a politician. He sings about what he sees. And shortly
- 57:05Speaker 4: after that song, they held the governor of the island accountable.
- 57:10Speaker 4: Ricardo Rossigio and I talked about this on the show
- 57:12Speaker 4: in the past, and they
