  Speaker 1: Good morning and welcome to Bongina Report, early edition. Canada
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: and Mexico surrender to President Trump. Doge engineers are revealed
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: to be 19- to 24-year-old geniuses. Trump demands Ukraine hand
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: over rare earth minerals as payment for all the money
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: and weapons that we've given them.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: J.D.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Vance visits East Palestine. Tulsi Gabbard makes her case before
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: her confirmation vote today. And illegal Mexicans burn the American flag.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: All this on Bongina Report, early edition.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: You guys had no audio? Do we have audio now?
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: Can you guys hear?
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: Probably.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Michael, we're good now? All right. Well, you guys didn't
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: get my rundown. That's okay. We're going to talk about
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: a lot of things today, but we're going to start.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: With Canada and Mexico surrendering to President Trump. In a
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: tweet last night, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrote, I
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: just had a good call with President Trump. Canada is
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: implementing our $ 1. 3 billion border plan, reinforcing the border with
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: new choppers, technology, and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: frontline personnel will also be working on protecting the border.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: And then Trudeau also said that he will be appointing
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: a fentanyl czar List cartels as terrorists, like President Trump has,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: ensure 24-7 eyes on the border, and launch a Canada-U.S.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: joint strike force to combat organized crime, fentanyl, and money laundering.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: It's incredible.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, considering the haters who have criticized him for
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: the last few days, saying.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: You're going to destroy the U.S. economy, and for what? Nothing.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: This is leadership from President Trump. America is the world's superpower.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: There was zero reason for us to put up with
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: our neighbors importing chemical weapons into this country in the
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: form of fentanyl.
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: Zero.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Trump has also tweeted that the Mexican president, Claudia Scheinbaum,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: has agreed to immediately supply 10,000 Mexican soldiers on the
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: southern border and that these soldiers will be specifically designated
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: to stop the flow of fentanyl and illegal migrants into
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: our country.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: So Trump is securing the border and Mexico is paying
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: for it. It's very poetic.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: In response, Trump has agreed to pause the tariffs on
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Mexico for a one-month period while the Trump admin negotiates a, quote,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: deal between our two countries. So presumably Trump actually wants
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: more from Mexico, wants more from them. China, who Trump
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: has put a 10% tariff on because China is manufacturing
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the precursor chemicals to fentanyl, China just said that they
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: are prepared to come to a deal with President Trump
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: as well. All of this is incredible. For days now,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: The left has been saying, Trump's going to destroy the economy.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: He's lost his mind. This isn't how you treat your neighbors.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: And to that I say, friendly neighbors don't pour illegals
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: and drugs into your country.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: They don't.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: And Trump just got exactly what he wanted with these tariffs.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: A more secure border. This is winning. This is excellence.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: And to all his critics, the globalist free trade nuts
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: on the right, the haters on the left, they all
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: just look like idiots now. I cannot overstate how good
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: it feels to finally have a leader looking out for
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: the well-being of the American people by wielding the might, wealth,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: and cachet that this country possesses. Mexico, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Canada,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: they've all caved. Mass deportations are underway.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: DEI is gone.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: The FBI is getting purged. USA nuked. Doge is saving billions.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: And we're going to talk about Doge. I have a
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: lot to say about Doge today. But first, we're going
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to take just a quick break. Let's talk about Doge.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Wired published an article yesterday intended to be a hit
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: piece revealing that Doge is being run behind the scenes
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: by young men between the ages of 19 and 24.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: But this whole hit piece has completely backfired because people
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: have done research into these young men. Turns out they're awesome.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: They're wicked smart. One of the young Doge kids, his
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: name is Luke Ferretor, and he's a recent graduate of
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the University of Nebraska. And he just won a $ 390
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: thousand dollar prize for deciphering ancient Greek scrolls using AI.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Take a listen.
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: So I've always been interested in history. Growing up, I
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: learned Latin. I was never that good at it, but
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: I was always kind of into that sort of stuff.
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: Read a lot about the Roman Empire and things. And
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: one day I was just listening to a podcast back
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: in March. It was with Nat Friedman. He just kind
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: of got on the podcast, explained like, there are these
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: burnt up scrolls that were buried in the Pompeii eruption.
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: No one knows how to read them. But some professors
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: have created CT scans of these scrolls and they uploaded
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: the data on the internet as a competition to see
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: who could find writing inside of these scrolls. And when
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: I heard that, I was just immediately like, oh my goodness,
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: this is such a cool project.
• 5:11
  Speaker 7: I have to work on this.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: I just went home from work that day at the
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: end of the day and I've been working on it
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: evenings and weekends ever since. At the start of the challenge,
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: we had not been able to find any writing at
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: all within these scrolls. There are hundreds of these scrolls
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: that are from the mansion. We've scanned a couple of them,
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: and no one had been able to find any writing
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: in them using these methods. Late one Saturday night, I
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: was sitting at a party at a friend's house in Omaha,
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: and I get a text from another person on the
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: challenge team, and he says, hey, I've just uploaded this
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: new kind of piece of the scroll. You should take
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: a look at it. I remotely accessed my computer. I
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: type into it, like, please run the algorithm on this.
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: New piece of scroll.
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: And then I just kind of started. I pull out
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: my phone again, just nonchalantly like, hey, I wonder how
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: that went. And there are three Greek letters on the screen,
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: letters I'd never seen before. It was really cool because
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: it's like, oh my goodness, like we actually detected new
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: writing in the scrolls using AI. That was the moment
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: I realized like this is actually going to work. Like
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: we were probably going to read the scrolls. And I
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: completely freaked out. My friends were there and I was cheering,
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: jumping up and down. screaming, crying, all the stuff. I
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: took a picture of the results and I sent them
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: to my mom. She called me and she's like, hey,
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: these look great. It was a really special moment. Now
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: we're reading entire paragraphs from the scrolls and hopefully we'll
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: be able to read the entire book and read the
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: hundreds of other books that were buried in this condition
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: as well.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: Amazing.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: It makes me like our generation could still be saved.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, this guy is, he's awesome. To spend your
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: time trying to decipher ancient scrolls using AI.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: It's very cool.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: It's exactly what you should be doing in your collegiate years, right?
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: He's actually spending his time not partying, not being an idiot,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: but I mean, contributing.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: To world history, really.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: And so this is one of the kids that's working
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: with Elon Musk on Doge to reduce our country's excessive
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: spending problem. And the left has been horrified by this.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: They're just horrified that these young guys have come in
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: and they are really cutting spending and reforming our government.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: And I'm 100% here for it. I don't understand why
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: everybody's so mad. Also, notice that he went to the
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: University of Nebraska. He's not Harvard, not Yale. The best
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: and the brightest are not necessarily at the Ivies, especially
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: because these schools are still embedded with anti-white institutional racism.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: They have ignored the SCOTUS decision against affirmative action. Per Wired,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: These young engineers are forcing high-level General Services Administration employees
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: on calls to, quote, go over code they had written
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: and justify their jobs. So we have these young guys
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: who are little geniuses right out of high school and
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: college recommending the termination of useless bureaucrats in GSA. Plus,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the Doge team has been granted official A-suite level clearance.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: So on Sunday... CNN.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Reported that Doge personnel attempted to access classified information and
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: security systems at USAID. Top USAID security officials freaked out
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: and they tried to thwart these attempts. And then Trump
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: put all those USAID guys who tried to thwart the
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: attempts on leave. And now the left, of course, is
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: flipping out. OMG, they have classified material.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: And to that I say, good.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: In addition to various coups that USAID has funded abroad,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: which we covered yesterday. I have a few more items
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: to share with you all.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: Here's Carolyn Levin.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: And here's the reason why Elon Musk and others have
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: been taking a look. Because if you look at the
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: waste and abuse that has run through USAID over the
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: past several years, these are some of the insane priorities
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: that that organization has been spending money on.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: $ 1.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: 5 million to advance DEI in Serbia's workplaces. $ 70, 000 for
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: a production of a DEI musical in Ireland. $ 47, 000 for
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: a transgender opera in Colombia, $ 32, 000 for a transgender comic
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: book in Peru. I don't know about you, but as
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars going towards
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: this crap, and I know the American people don't either,
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: and that's exactly what Elon Musk has been tasked by
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: President Trump to do, to get the fraud, waste, and
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: abuse out of our federal government. Thank you, guys.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Do you guys believe how ridiculous those items were that
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: you just listed out, that our money was going toward? Also,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: $ 20 million. for the creation of a Sesame Street TV
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: show in Iraq. And I need to make a correction
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: because yesterday I said that USAID sent over a million
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: dollars to the Wuhan Institute of Virology for gain of
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: function research that of course sparked the COVID pandemic. Actually,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: they sent $ 38 million. So my bad guys, not a million,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: 38 million. Now, we have all of these left-wing journalists
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: and politicians saying two things. One, they're saying, you're denying
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: starving children food in their bellies, you're evil. And I
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: just think I demonstrated that that's not true. USAID is
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: completely mismanaged and they spend their money on ridiculous things
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: that have nothing to do with aid for needy people
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: across the globe. And the second thing that they're saying
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: is that now American national security is under threat. And
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: here is Virginia Representative Eugene Vindman on that point.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: We better look at double or tripling the military budget
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: because without that soft power around the world, we are
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: making ourselves weaker. We're making our adversaries and allies stronger.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: We step back and we create a vacuum. You know
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: who steps in? It's Russia. It's China. It's our adversaries
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: from around the world.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: OK, ridiculous, dumb.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: We need to fund a transgender opera in Peru in
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: order to promote national security.
• 10:47
  Speaker 8: What?
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And isn't it strange how the same people shrieking that
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: cutting USAID is a national security threat, but these same
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: people are totally chill with violent gangs and fentanyl flooding
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: into this country.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: Pretty odd, right?
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: The left is also saying, well, USAID only makes up
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: 1% of the budget, so none of this really matters.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: And to that, I think federal CEO Sean Davis responded best.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: He said, this is the bad faith rhetorical equivalent of
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: telling a morbidly obese person who weighs 600 pounds not
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: to cut out junk food because a Twinkie is only
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: 200 calories. On the topic of foreign aid, two days ago,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Zelensky revealed that Ukraine only received $ 75 billion of the
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: over $ 177 billion sent to them in.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Aid from the United States. So where did the money go?
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Another conspiracy confirmed, I think, that Ukraine, like Iraq and Afghanistan,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: is just a money laundering operation. And as of yesterday,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: President Trump announced that he is demanding Ukraine give its
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: rare earth minerals to the United States as payment, as
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: repayment for all the aid we've given them.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: Here was Trump yesterday.
• 12:02
  Speaker 9: Telling Ukraine they have very valuable rare earth.
• 12:07
  Speaker 7: We want what we put up to go in terms
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: of a guarantee. We want a guarantee.
• 12:13
  Speaker 9: We're handing them money hand over fist.
• 12:16
  Speaker 7: We're giving them equipment. European is not keeping up with us.
• 12:20
  Speaker 7: They should equalize. Look, we have an ocean in between.
• 12:23
  Speaker 7: They don't. It's more important for them than it is
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: for us. But they're way below us in terms of money.
• 12:30
  Speaker 7: And they should be paying.
• 12:32
  Speaker 9: at least equal, they should really be paying much more
• 12:35
  Speaker 9: than us, but let's say equal to us, and they're
• 12:37
  Speaker 9: billions and billions of dollars below. So we're looking to
• 12:42
  Speaker 9: do a deal with Ukraine where they're going to secure
• 12:45
  Speaker 9: what we're giving them with their rare earth and other things.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: I guess to drop a comment, what do you think
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: of this?
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: You know, I agree that Ukraine should repay us and
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: it gets very America first. Trump is looking out for
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: the American people. That's his priority. That's what he's doing
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: when he says, Ukraine's got to repay us. But there's
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: also something that feels really dirty about this too.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: And obviously, Trump is not responsible.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: For how the Biden administration has handled the war in Ukraine.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Biden has made it continue on and never had to.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: America fueled this war. Biden fueled this war. Other NATO
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: powers fueled this war. Zelensky would never have been able
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: to keep this going if America had not continued to
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: give the country.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Money and weapons.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Also, remember that Zelensky was essentially installed by our CIA,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: who backed the 2014 coup in Ukraine. Actually, they didn't
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: just back it. They pretty much staged the whole thing.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: So Ukraine is indebted to us, yes, but only because
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: we forced this war to continue. And now the country's
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: flattened and bankrupt, and they will probably have to concede
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: land to Russia because Ukraine has been losing this war.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: And now Ukraine has to pay us in rare earth minerals.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: And I It's a really unfortunate situation. I do think
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: they should repay us. I also think it's not right
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: that Biden forced them to continue fighting this war that
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: they should have negotiated a peace deal with ages ago
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: and saved the lives of countless young men and the
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: economy of the Ukrainian people. And this is exactly why USAID,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: the piggy bank of the national security apparatus, needs to
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: be brought to heel, as with the rest of the
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: federal government. All it does is sow chaos and misery abroad.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: And now we're dealing with the consequences of that. Okay,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: let's talk about J.D.
• 14:34
  Speaker 9: Vance.
• 14:34
  Speaker 7: J.D.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Vance traveled to East Palestine, Ohio yesterday. And East Palestine is,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: of course, where a major train derailment in February of
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: 2023 occurred, and it spilled toxic chemicals poisoning the air, water, soil,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: and people in the surrounding area.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Here was J.D. Vance back in 2023 as a U.S.
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: Senator.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Drawing attention to this crisis.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: Hey guys, so I'm here at Leslie Run and there's
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: dead worms and dead fish all throughout this water. Something
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: I just discovered is that if you scrape the creek bed,
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: it's like chemical is coming out of the ground. Can
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: you show, can you come here and let me just
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: show this to people. I don't know if you're going
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: to see this on the camera, but watch this. Just
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: see that chemical pop out of the creek. This is disgusting.
• 15:26
  Speaker 8: And the fact that we.
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Have not cleaned up the train crash, the fact that
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: these chemicals are still seeping in the ground is an
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: insult to the people who live in East Palestine.
• 15:36
  Speaker 8: Do not forget these people.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: We've got to keep applying pressure. That's how we're going
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: to fix this problem.
• 15:40
  Speaker 9: Thank you.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: The Biden admin did nothing to help these people. Week
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: after week, Pete Buttigieg never showed up. And it started
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: to become a symbol of how little this Biden admin
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: cared for regular people.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: But Trump cared.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk wrote a really powerful reflection that I want
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: to share with you all about East Palestine at this
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: around two-year anniversary of the catastrophe. Charlie wrote, Trump's third
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: presidential campaign got off to a slow start. He held
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: only a single event in his first three months. Energy
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: and enthusiasm among the base were low. But then everything
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: changed when a Norfolk Southern train hauling toxic chemicals derailed
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: in East Palestine. Ohio on February 3rd, 2023. Emergency responders
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: acting on EPA advice conducted a controlled burn of vinyl chloride,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: a severe carcinogen. Officials claimed everything was fine, but almost
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: immediately disturbing reports began trickling out. Locals said that their
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: pets and livestock were falling ill or died after smelling
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: the burning chemicals. Some said they had become ill themselves.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Some said they'd received visits from Norfolk Southern officials who
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: offered to scan their homes for toxins but only if
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: they signed away their rights to sue the company. All
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: the while, the EPA insisted everything was fine, but people
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: didn't believe them. And a year later, a whistleblower would
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: claim the EPA deliberately refused to run tests that might
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: have revealed the controlled burn was a catastrophic mistake. It
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: was everything that originally motivated the Trump movement. A declining,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: forgotten middle American town, callous corporate power, government ineptitude, an
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: avoidable disaster devastating a part of America Washington prefers not
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: to think about. Immediately, The entire movement was re-energized. Trump
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: traveled to East Palestine, and the visit was such a success,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: it became the template for his entire campaign. Trump can
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: give a great speech and holds amazing rallies, but he's
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: at his absolute best when he's simply interacting face-to-face with
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: the regular working.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: American men and women.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Here was Trump two years ago in East Palestine.
• 17:50
  Speaker 8: Thank you, sir.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Honor, please. If you're listening, he is surrounded by locals,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: young and old. We're so excited and grateful that he's there.
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: The real president.
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: Thank you for not forgetting about us.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: And I swear to you guys.
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: I actually started to tear up yesterday as I watched
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: this video.
• 18:25
  Speaker 7: I had seen it two years ago, but.
• 18:27
  Speaker 10: There was something even more.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: Powerful about it today.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: These people who had been completely abandoned, but not just
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: abandoned in this crisis, but abandoned for decades, feeling seen
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: and heard finally by a leader. As Charlie wrote, the
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: forgotten Americans will be forgotten no more. All right.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: U.S. Senate Intelligence, the U.S.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Senate Intelligence Committee is set to vote on the nomination
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: of Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence Services. Today,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Senator Lindsey Graham, who we didn't think was going to
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: vote for her, he was kind of iffy, he has
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: thankfully publicly announced his support for Gabbard alongside RFK Jr.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: And Kash Patel.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: However, Republican Senator Todd Young of Indiana, people in the chat,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: if you're from Indiana, call this man. Todd Young has
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: still been unclear if he is going to support Tulsi
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Gabbard despite his history of supporting a significant number of
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Biden nominees. So Biden nominees are fine. Tulsi Gabbard, not fine.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Say prayers for this vote, you guys. Call Todd Young's
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: office if you are from that district. I've said it
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: once and I'll say it again. Tulsi's nomination is arguably
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: from that state.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Tulsi's nomination is arguably the most important. Here is Jeffrey
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Sachs with Tucker Carlson on why the war machine hates
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Tulsi Gabbard.
• 20:08
  Speaker 8: She's probably, and I don't want to jinx anything, she's
• 20:11
  Speaker 8: probably the most important appointment of the Trump administration. It
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: does seem that way. She is incredibly intelligent, incredibly honest,
• 20:20
  Speaker 8: incredibly committed to U.S. security, and would do a superb job.
• 20:29
  Speaker 8: So that's why she's being opposed, because the forces that
• 20:36
  Speaker 8: be that are worse than mediocre, that are right now
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: on top of a $ 1. 5 trillion a year machine, that
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: have been running disastrous wars, that have been bringing us
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: closer and closer to doom, don't want any accountability. And
• 20:56
  Speaker 8: what Tulsi Gabbard would represent is competence, honesty, forthrightness, and
• 21:06
  Speaker 8: not having been a party to all these failures.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: Tulsi is all about disclosure.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: On JFK, on 9-11, she wants to end the forever wars,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: the secret CIA regime change operations. She wants authentic peace
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: here and abroad. As a combat veteran, she doesn't take
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: war lightly, doesn't take secret coups lightly. Tulsi wrote an
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: op-ed in Newsweek yesterday making her case, and I want
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: to share with you an excerpt from that.
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: She said, For too long.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Faulty, inadequate, and weaponized intelligence has led to costly failures,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: which have undermined national security and constitutional freedoms.
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: The most obvious.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Example is the invasion of Iraq, which was based upon
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: a failure of intelligence. This disastrous decision led to the
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: deaths of thousands of American soldiers and countless people in
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: the Middle East. It led to mass migration and regional destabilization,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: and it undermined the security instability of our European allies,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: and it led to the rise of ISIS, the strengthening
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: of Al-Qaeda and other Islamic jihadist groups, and the emboldening
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: of Iran. President Trump's reelection is a clear mandate from
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: the American people to break this cycle of failure. And
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: that just says it all. That says who she is,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: what she's all about. She gets it, and we need her.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: So let's pray that she gets confirmed today. I believe
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: the vote is at 2 p.m. And I'm going to
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: get you guys out of this early because, or early enough,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: because RFK Jr. 's vote is going to be apparently.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: At 10 a.m.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: All right, let's talk immigration. There have been massive demonstrations
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: against the Trump admin's deportation agenda. I wanna share with
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: you a video of one.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: Of these demonstrations.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: If you're listening, these are Mexicans living in the United States,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: presumably illegals, burning the American flag and shouting, Viva Mexico.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: I think I'm also hearing F Trump. Federalist writer John
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: Daniel Davidson had a really great response to this. He
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: wrote on X, tell me more about how anyone from
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: any part of the world can become an American because
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: America is just an idea. And this idea that America
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: is just an idea is unfortunately very widespread in On
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: our side, I want you to listen to Vivek Ramaswamy
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: on the Andrew Schultz podcast espousing exactly that idea.
• 23:37
  Speaker 8: Italy or Japan or you could go straight. Great countries.
• 23:41
  Speaker 8: Love both countries. But their national identity is based on
• 23:43
  Speaker 8: a lineage, right? Whether you speak the language, whether your
• 23:46
  Speaker 8: blood stock, your stock of blood goes back. Sure.
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: Five generations.
• 23:49
  Speaker 8: That's how Italian you are. Cultures thousands of years old, yes. Yeah.
• 23:51
  Speaker 8: Whereas America, I believe. It's ideology. Is a nation founded
• 23:55
  Speaker 8: on a set of principles.
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: Okay, so that's wrong. Vivek is wrong.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: America is not an idea. We're not based on a
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: set of principles. America is a place. It is a
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: physical place with real people who share an identity deeper
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: than just shared belief in certain principles. And this is
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: highly relevant to the birthright citizenship debate. And again, John
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Daniel Davidson said, had an excellent article in The Federalist
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: laying this out beautifully. And the piece is titled, Birthright
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Citizenship is a Pernicious Lie That's Destroying America. And in it,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: John writes that there is a pressing moral argument about
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: citizenship and nationhood.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: What is America? Who is America for?
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: What is the purpose of immigration? What do immigrants or
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: would-be immigrants owe to the native-born population? I think for
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: a long time, Conservatives didn't want to talk about these things.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: It was easier to affirm the conventional wisdom that America
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: was a propositional nation, an idea, and that anyone can
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: be an American if they adopted our idea.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: This was a mistake.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: This way of thinking prevented us from getting beyond platitudes
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: and coming to terms with hard truths. America is not
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: merely a propositional country. Not everyone can really become an American.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Being an American means more than assenting to laws and
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: paying taxes. If America is just an idea, We can
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: write it down and send it overseas, but America is
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: a nation. We have a common language, a shared history,
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: a certain way of life and customs, and a distinctly
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: American identity. Our system of government is founded on Christian
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: claims about God and man. Christian morality has been the
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: basis of our civic life. We are bound together by
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: family ties, connections to the land, and shared experience, what Lincoln.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Called the mystic chords of memory.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Making a case against birthright citizenship means making a case
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: against multiculturalism, which we have been taught makes us strong,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: but in reality makes us weaker and poorer. It also
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: means asserting that someone whose family has been here for
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: only a single generation is not just as American as
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: someone who traces their ancestry to the American Revolution. John
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: goes on to make the case that our immigration policy
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: should solely benefit the American people. Businesses and non-citizens should
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: not have a say in that. John writes, what good
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: is higher GDP if native-born.
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: Americans are worse off?
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: What good are more jobs if they cost social and
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: cultural cohesion? How does it help working-class Americans to compete
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: for wages against foreigners? In other words, a nation is
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: more than GDP. We have prioritized numbers over safeguarding our
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: national identity and ensuring the prosperity, freedom, and well-being of
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: the American people for way too long And it has
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: to end. And I think, God willing, it is ending.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: The Trump years have been more than a political shift.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: They've been a time of intense self-reflection as a nation.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: The American people have been forced to confront uncomfortable truths
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: about our institutions and our own complacency. Why were we
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: in Iraq and Afghanistan? Why are we funding trance operas
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: in Peru? Is America just an idea, or is it
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: a nation with a history, a people, and a moral
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: order worth preserving? Do the children of illegals born here
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: receive citizenship? For decades, the public was asleep at the wheel.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: America was prosperous. The people asked few questions. The ruling
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: class took advantage of that, outsourcing jobs, opening borders, pushing
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: an agenda that had nothing to do with the will
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: of the American people or what was best for the
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: American people. And then everything changed. Millennials became the first
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: generation projected to be worse off than their parents. The
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: internet shattered the establishment's control over information, and the media,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: once untouchable, and the gatekeepers of truth, suddenly were caught
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: in their own lies, exposed in real time. The unchecked
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: federal bureaucracy, which once operated in the shadows, revealed itself
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: as a corrupt, unaccountable leviathan. The intelligence agencies, the FBI,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the CIA, institutions meant to serve the people were weaponized
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: against the people.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: The rose-colored glasses came off.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Americans looked around and realized that Hollywood, the music industry, academia,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: the government, the media, were not just flawed, they were
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: rotten to the core. And then came Trump. And he
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: said what no one else dared to say. He pointed
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: out the rot and he called it out for what
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: it was. And many on the right recoiled. They called
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: him imperfect. Too many former wives, not sufficiently pro-life, not
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: a free trader. They wanted a polished, respectable figure. But
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: the time for politeness and the status quo had long passed.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Trump's style was raw, unconventional, but most importantly, it was honest.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: And with every attempt to destroy him, Russia collusion, laptop cover-up,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: mass censorship, lawfare, even two assassination attempts, the corruption of
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the regime became impossible to ignore. The people saw it.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: and they asked deeper moral questions. America First was no
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: longer a slogan, but a guiding principle. When East Palestine
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: was in crisis, poisoned air, water, soil, and people, the
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: American people realized that they had been abandoned by their government,
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: by the media, by the elites who claimed to care
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: about the little guy. The only one that showed up
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: was Trump. He looked them in the eye and he
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: told them the truth, that they wouldn't be forgotten. The
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: real fight is not political, it is spiritual. Christian nationalism
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: is not just a reaction, it is the only solution
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: to the moral and political decay. And the fear, to
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: say as much, is gone.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: The people will no longer.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Be silenced by cries of racist and xenophobe The speech
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: policing holds no power, but the people now do. And
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: that's all I have for you guys today. Thank you
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: so much for tuning in. I'll be here tomorrow. See
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: you then.
• 30:10
  Speaker 8: The Dan Bongino Show.
• 30:12
  Speaker 10: I think a lot of people are underestimating the Trump
• 30:14
  Speaker 10: effect in this midterm. You've heard it yourself. Act like
• 30:17
  Speaker 10: I'm on the ballot. Why is he saying that? You
• 30:20
  Speaker 10: think he doesn't know what he's doing? That is the
• 30:23
  Speaker 10: X factor. Folks, elections are a math issue. That is it.
• 30:28
  Speaker 10: This is not a football game. If you vote, we
• 30:31
  Speaker 10: will win. It is not complicated.
• 30:34
