Nicki Minaj stands with Trump on Trump Accounts, refuses to back down · Cultural Wars | America Out Loud News

• 0:09
  You are listening to The Hidden Lightness on America Out Loud Talk Radio.
• 0:13
  I'm your host Jimmy Hinton.
• 0:15
  Welcome to a new week.
• 0:17
  And uh man, we're gonna start off strong again.
• 0:20
  I just saw an article at uh the end of last week that has people in an uproar.
• 0:27
  Nikki Minaj.
• 0:29
  Oh my goodness, is she absolutely hated and loved.
• 0:35
  Uh, it's great.
• 0:37
  Nikki, here it is, hot off the press.
• 0:40
  Rap artist Nikki Minaj pledges support for Trump accounts.
• 0:47
  You remember the beloved Trump accounts, which I'm not saying that sarcastically.
• 0:54
  I love these Trump accounts.
• 0:57
  I think it's fantastic.
• 0:58
  I think it's such a good idea.
• 1:01
  Uh the only mistake that I think President Trump made, and I think it was a big one, is that he only limited the Trump accounts for the time period during his term.
• 1:15
  It's only a four-year window, and I think these need to be made permanent.
• 1:20
  I really do.
• 1:22
  I think they're fantastic.
• 1:24
  Uh there are people who criticize them for different reasons, different economists.
• 1:29
  But I just I disagree.
• 1:32
  I think they're really, really good.
• 1:34
  I think it's uh totally foolish for people not to take advantage of these.
• 1:39
  And what's fascinating to me is that they're gonna be people who fight this hook, line and sinker just because President Trump is behind it.
• 1:50
  There they will shoot themselves in the foot financially.
• 1:55
  They'll shoot themselves in the foot just to prove a point.
• 1:59
  And I think that's insanity.
• 2:02
  I I don't care if you like a president or not.
• 2:06
  If there are things that different policies that they create that benefit you, why not take advantage of them?
• 2:16
  I remember President Obama, I didn't care much for President Obama.
• 2:20
  There are some things that I thought he did exceptionally well.
• 2:24
  Um other things like the uh, you know, definitely his staple unaffordable health care act was absolutely atrocious, and we're all paying for it now.
• 2:35
  I mean, we really are literally paying for it.
• 2:39
  I I you know, it obviously was a very bad policy.
• 2:43
  And anybody who says otherwise, you're just you're fooling yourself.
• 2:47
  You're trying to bend the facts to make something terrible look like it's actually good, and you're like, well, just give it a chance.
• 2:56
  How many years has this turd been in policy, right?
• 3:01
  It's been written into policy since uh I don't I don't even remember what year that passed, but it's been long enough that we shouldn't be facing government shutdowns in 2026 because of the Unaffordable Health Care Act.
• 3:17
  How are we gonna fund it?
• 3:19
  Well, I'll tell you how we fund it.
• 3:22
  You don't, not with taxpayer money.
• 3:26
  You let the thing fail, and you actually do common sense revisions to uh to our healthcare system.
• 3:34
  It's very broken.
• 3:36
  But anyway, that's a side topic.
• 3:39
  Uh people are absolutely livid over these Trump accounts, and uh I I just I think they're wonderful.
• 3:47
  We should take advantage of them, whether you like the president or not.
• 3:51
  So, for example, President Obama, one of the things that that I took advantage of, and I'm not afraid to admit it.
• 3:59
  It was the first time home buyer tax credit.
• 4:05
  That was actually a really fantastic thing.
• 4:09
  Maybe not uh maybe not for the national debt, but I understand why he did it.
• 4:16
  I understand that he was trying to stimulate the economy and the housing market had just crashed, and President Obama was trying to incentivize people to purchase homes because literally nobody was buying.
• 4:32
  I mean, it was stale, just very, very stale.
• 4:37
  That was a big reason why my wife and I bought the house at the time.
• 4:41
  We weren't even looking at houses, and then I heard about the tax credit, and I thought, man, that's absolutely incredible.
• 4:52
  So it just doesn't make sense that you could spite somebody so much that you would shoot yourself in the foot financially.
• 5:02
  By the way, my wife and I paid our house off very aggressively, and a large part of that is because we got the first time home buyer tax credit.
• 5:13
  That really put us in a very good, a very favorable financial position, and we saw that at the time.
• 5:20
  We saw that as a very wise move on our part.
• 5:25
  And I don't remember how long that tax credit was around for, but it wasn't very long.
• 5:31
  And uh we either took advantage of it or we didn't, and I think it was something like $15,000.
• 5:40
  And I thought, when am I ever gonna get a $15,000 tax credit ever again?
• 5:50
  You know, and it's not happened ever since.
• 5:54
  So we have to take advantage of the tax credits and uh different uh things that are gonna benefit us or benefit our kids, and this is definitely one of them.
• 6:06
  And you could loathe the president.
• 6:08
  That's fine.
• 6:09
  You have the freedom to do that.
• 6:13
  But the tax credits, it's really interesting because people are canceling Nicki Minaj, and and how dare she uh pledge support for President Trump.
• 6:23
  How dare she pledge support now for the Trump accounts?
• 6:30
  I mean, that she must be racist.
• 6:32
  Oh, wait a second.
• 6:35
  She's not white.
• 6:37
  Well, she must be a homophobe.
• 6:41
  Wait, no.
• 6:42
  Well, if you know anything about her, I just I don't know a lot about her, but I don't think she is.
• 6:50
  And so the narratives don't really fit.
• 6:53
  They start to break down, but it doesn't matter.
• 6:55
  They'll find some way to attack her to antagonize her.
• 7:01
  They'll probably start doxing her now, showing up at her house and threatening her because how dare you.
• 7:08
  You know, and and it's so ironic because isn't that one of the things that that the left barks about all the time?
• 7:15
  Well, the wealthy people, they're so selfish and they need to pay their fair share.
• 7:19
  Well, it turns out she is paying her fair share, or at least she says she is.
• 7:25
  She's paying her fair share by contributing to the Trump accounts.
• 7:31
  She's gonna actually match the Trump accounts.
• 7:36
  And as of now, it's not a big amount, at least not for her.
• 7:41
  But you can't complain.
• 7:44
  It's pretty decent.
• 7:45
  150 to 300,000 somewhere in that ballpark.
• 7:52
  And this is what's really interesting.
• 7:55
  She's funding her fans Trump's account, Trump accounts.
• 8:01
  That's gonna make people even more livid because now she's not being equal.
• 8:08
  You know, that's the whole thing, equality.
• 8:12
  Well, guess what?
• 8:14
  She has the freedom.
• 8:16
  She can pick whoever she wants.
• 8:18
  If she wants to say, hey, I'm only gonna do this for my fans, she has every single right to do that.
• 8:27
  And I'm not a fan.
• 8:28
  I won't benefit from this, but some people will.
• 8:32
  And that's okay.
• 8:36
  So here's the article.
• 8:39
  This was published Wednesday of last week, January 28th.
• 8:45
  Minaj will attend a summit on Wednesday with President Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to promote the tax advantage savings accounts for children.
• 8:57
  I I can't love this enough, and I'm trust me, I'm not a fan of Nikki Minaj.
• 9:04
  Um, I find her music to be quite frankly pretty offensive and trashy.
• 9:11
  But I think it's cool that she's promoting this, at least she's doing something positive.
• 9:19
  You know, you look at a lot of rappers, and uh, you know, not all of them are promoting good things, so to speak.
• 9:28
  She's actually promoting something that's gonna benefit people generationally.
• 9:34
  So she attended a summit on Wednesday with President Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to promote Trump accounts, also known as 530A accounts, which are a type of individual retirement account designed to encourage early wealth building.
• 9:55
  She said this at the summit.
• 9:57
  If I had access to something like this.
• 10:00
  My whole life would have been different.
• 10:04
  She's not wrong.
• 10:06
  I don't disagree with her here.
• 10:09
  Now she went on, she worked very hard and and uh became very, very successful as an artist.
• 10:17
  And you gotta give credit where credit's due.
• 10:19
  That wasn't an accident.
• 10:22
  This wasn't just handed to her on a silver platter.
• 10:25
  She worked her tail off.
• 10:28
  To get into the the limelight and to become successful.
• 10:33
  So you got to give credit where credit's due.
• 10:35
  And she did that.
• 10:38
  But she's saying, if I would have had access to something like this.
• 10:44
  The course of her life would have been very different.
• 10:46
  She would have been wealthy earlier.
• 10:50
  Who knows?
• 10:51
  If she even would have gone into music.
• 10:53
  I don't know what all she means by that.
• 10:55
  She didn't really expand on that.
• 10:58
  But if you know anything about her background, she grew up very poor.
• 11:04
  I mean, very poor.
• 11:07
  She uh grew up in a chaotic household.
• 11:10
  She emigrated from Trinidad and Tobago.
• 11:14
  She lived in Queens, New York.
• 11:17
  And she describes it as very difficult conditions.
• 11:21
  Her father was addicted to drugs and alcohol.
• 11:24
  That led to poverty, or worse poverty, financial struggles, dangerous, violent home environment.
• 11:33
  I mean, it's it's really heartbreaking.
• 11:36
  And you look at these kinds of stories, and you start to have compassion on people, or at least you should.
• 11:44
  And like I said, I don't particularly like her music at all.
• 11:52
  Uh you know, when I say particularly, I mean I really just don't like it.
• 11:58
  It's not my style, it's not, it's just not I I don't like it at all.
• 12:05
  But you also have to understand that her background was really tough, and her music kind of rose out of that kind of environment, that culture.
• 12:17
  She uh said in 2012.
• 12:22
  I I won't be poor ever again.
• 12:26
  You know, she was enjoying her uh rags to riches lifestyle.
• 12:33
  And like I said, she earned it.
• 12:36
  She she deserves to enjoy it.
• 12:39
  And so she's not approaching people as an elitist, as somebody who grew up in a rich home and all this stuff was just handed to her.
• 12:48
  She's speaking as somebody who genuinely legitimately went through extreme poverty, and she doesn't like it.
• 12:56
  It's hard.
• 12:57
  You know, I uh I'll put a little teaser.
• 13:01
  I did finally publish my book on biblical finances.
• 13:10
  And it's one of the things that I talk about in that book.
• 13:14
  Um, it's it's not yet live.
• 13:16
  It's going through a review process.
• 13:19
  But one of the things that I talk about is that poverty's tough.
• 13:25
  It's stressful.
• 13:27
  I gave the example of a fish being outside of the water.
• 13:32
  You know, if you've ever seen a fish outside of the water and they're struggling, they're they're just they're gasping and flopping around, desperate to get back in the water.
• 13:43
  It's actually stressful.
• 13:45
  It's very stressful to watch a fish outside of the water.
• 13:48
  And I describe that as people living in poverty.
• 13:51
  That's really what it looks like.
• 13:53
  And that's coming as somebody who helps people living in poverty constantly every single day.
• 13:59
  It's physically hurtful to watch people.
• 14:04
  And I can't even imagine what it's like for people living in poverty.
• 14:09
  You know, watching people living in poverty is very, very, very hard.
• 14:14
  Because they do.
• 14:15
  They they look like fish outside of the water.
• 14:18
  They're just that everything's a struggle.
• 14:21
  Anxiety's up.
• 14:23
  Stress is up, bills are not being paid.
• 14:28
  Constantly wondering from sometimes minute to minute whether utilities are going to get shut off or whether they have to start taking to the streets because they get evicted.
• 14:40
  I mean, it is a tough, tough lifestyle.
• 14:44
  So I tend to listen to people who've actually been there.
• 14:48
  People who've lived that lifestyle and they know, because quite honestly, I don't know.
• 14:53
  There were times where we were pretty poor.
• 14:57
  I remember the the uh government powdered milk, which all of us kids loathed, the government cheese.
• 15:04
  Like we lived off of that stuff.
• 15:08
  But we never knew true, true poverty.
• 15:12
  And Nicki Minaj did.
• 15:16
  So she's saying, you know, if if I had access to something like this, my whole life would have been different.
• 15:22
  So she vowed for her fans, which is really cool.
• 15:26
  I mean, what a gift.
• 15:28
  If she really goes through with this, and I think she will.
• 15:31
  If she really goes through with this, what a gift to her fans.
• 15:37
  She said the true meaning of paying it forward, early financial literacy and financial support for our children will give them a major head start in life.
• 15:47
  One thousand percent right, Nicki Minaj.
• 15:51
  You're absolutely right.
• 15:54
  What this does is not just a thousand dollar coffer.
• 15:57
  You know, it's not a thousand bucks that President Trump just drops into an account and crosses his fingers and is like, okay, you know, or this is gonna gain me political points.
• 16:10
  He's a lame duck president.
• 16:11
  He's he's out after four years, even though he jokes about going in extra term just to drive people nuts.
• 16:21
  But he's out.
• 16:22
  He didn't have to do this.
• 16:24
  100% he did not have to do this.
• 16:29
  And you have to look at these things.
• 16:32
  You have to look at them for what they are, and this genuinely is an opportunity for parents to take advantage of this.
• 16:40
  And to start putting their own money in this.
• 16:42
  And for people who for people who are so adamant that they hate Trump and they hate Nicki Minaj, and they just they're not gonna do it.
• 16:51
  I I think they're really, really hurting themselves.
• 16:55
  And sadly, they're hurting their kids.

  Nikki Minaj vows 150 to 300,000.
• 20:00
  Dollars for her fans to help fund Trump accounts.
• 20:04
  And boy, are people outraged.
• 20:08
  What I like about Nicki Minaj is she's not backing down.
• 20:13
  In fact, the more people hate on her, the more people criticize her, the more they spew absolute hatred, you know, the party of tolerance, because that's where it's coming from.
• 20:24
  It's not Republicans who are trashing her.
• 20:28
  And that's part of the criticism.
• 20:30
  And you know, the the left, they're saying, oh, the Republicans, they never liked her before.
• 20:36
  Now all of a sudden, just because she likes Trump, they like her.
• 20:39
  And I don't think that's what's going on.
• 20:43
  I really don't.
• 20:44
  I think it's just they they are so miserable.
• 20:51
  And they're spewing absolute hatred, wishing death on her and everything else.
• 20:57
  And I love what she did.
• 20:58
  She did she lent support for the Trump accounts.
• 21:02
  She showed up at the summit, or whatever this was.
• 21:05
  They were talking about Trump and Besson were talking about the Trump accounts on Wednesday of last week.
• 21:10
  I watched a little bit about that.
• 21:12
  Um, or a little bit from that, rather.
• 21:16
  Uh I didn't watch what President Trump said.
• 21:18
  I watched a little bit of what Bessent said.
• 21:20
  I didn't watch any of what Nicki Minaj said.
• 21:23
  I just saw a short clip of Bessent, and he was talking about the Trump accounts, and I thought it was just it was brilliant.
• 21:31
  But uh what's funny is Nicki Minaj, instead of backing down, she not only lent support for the Trump accounts, but she said this.
• 21:44
  I'm probably the president's number one fan, and that's not going to change.
• 21:49
  The hate or what people have to say, it does not affect me at all.
• 21:54
  It actually motivates me to support him more.
• 21:59
  I think that's where so many people stand right now.
• 22:02
  Um, they're just so tired of people running their mouths and being complete jerks.
• 22:09
  They're like, okay, fine.
• 22:10
  You know, it used to be that people were kind of closet Trump supporters, and what I'm seeing now is people are are coming flat out and saying I support them, I don't apologize.
• 22:24
  And it is driving people absolute baddie.
• 22:29
  They're losing their minds.
• 22:31
  I saw a video clip uh just this morning, and I don't I don't know what the context was for it, but it was at a protest, and there was one of the uh, you know, uh tolerant agitators, and he's an old guy, he's like in his probably mid-60s, and he's like chasing people around on foot, like trying to throw punches and all this stuff, and I'm like, dude, just go sit in your recliner.
• 23:04
  You're you're at retirement age.
• 23:05
  You ought to be propping your feet up and hanging out with the grandkids and you know, enjoying life a little bit.
• 23:12
  But instead he's he thinks he's in high school, walking around like shoving people, initiating it, shoving people, picking fights with people, and one person takes off running, he likes comes up and slaps the old guy in the face, just a light kind of a light tap.
• 23:29
  It was kind of funny to be honest.
• 23:33
  Um didn't it obviously didn't hurt, but it hurt his pride, and he takes off running and and right away just trips and falls flat on his face, face gets all scun up.
• 23:45
  You think that he would quit.
• 23:47
  Oh no, he got up, he starts running again, he's chasing after more people, and at this point they're just taunting him.
• 23:57
  He's foam for the bait, and another guy, and I'm not saying it's right.
• 24:02
  That's in fact, I I don't think it's right, but this guy reaches out and trips him.
• 24:11
  The guy spills it again, the old guy.
• 24:14
  He's right up against the curb, and he, I mean, he fell hard, and that's why I don't support it or encourage that because you don't fight fire with fire, and you know, something like that where somebody can get critically hurt or or killed.
• 24:30
  I don't care if you disagree with people.
• 24:32
  Um, that's what I'm talking about.
• 24:34
  It's just the these riots are so out of hand, it's just absolutely ridiculous, totally uncalled for.
• 24:45
  Uh, but anyway, you know, uh it's just a picture.
• 24:49
  To me, that was a picture.
• 24:50
  It was a moving picture of what's going on right now, where the tolerant left, they just can't help themselves.
• 25:00
  They're so fired up.
• 25:02
  And they call it justice.
• 25:04
  Yeah, we're justice warriors.
• 25:06
  No, you're actually, you're actually not.
• 25:12
  You're just wreaking havoc.
• 25:15
  You know, harassing people, bullying people, mfing people.
• 25:19
  You look like a raving lunatic.
• 25:23
  So anyway, Nicki Minaj, yeah.
• 25:25
  She said uh she went on to say, we're not going to let them get away with bullying him.
• 25:30
  And you know, the smear campaigns, it's not going to work.
• 25:35
  He has a lot of force behind him, and God is protecting him.
• 25:39
  Oh, she just knows how to push buttons.
• 25:51
  I love it.
• 25:53
  You know, she has the freedom to say these things, and she's not saying anything bad.
• 25:57
  And I don't even think she's being sarcastic here.
• 26:00
  She probably truly believes this.
• 26:04
  Yeah, whether God is behind Trump or not, that's it's not for me to decide.
• 26:11
  I don't know.
• 26:14
  I know uh I've said this before.
• 26:16
  Trump is not the moral example that I would point my kids to and be like, you know, follow his lead.
• 26:22
  That's he's just not morally, he's a little little on the uh on the rough side, we'll put it that way.
• 26:34
  But President Biden wasn't anybody either that I would ever point my kids to and say, you know, here's a model of what Christian living looks like.
• 26:42
  Kamala Harris would never say that she's an example of Christian living.
• 26:48
  So, you know, uh it's to be equal, to be fair, I wouldn't point to any one of those leaders.
• 26:57
  Any one of our presidents in in recent history, I wouldn't point to them and say, here's an example of Christian living.
• 27:03
  I just I don't see it.
• 27:06
  But whatever, she's free to say that.
• 27:08
  I'm not gonna get mad at people for saying that.
• 27:13
  And uh wouldn't you rather people say these kinds of things?
• 27:16
  You look at the difference in rhetoric.
• 27:18
  I mean, it's it's so night and day.
• 27:22
  She's like, you know, we're we're just not gonna keep putting up with this bullying.
• 27:28
  We're we're gonna do something good.
• 27:30
  We're just gonna put positive out there in the world.
• 27:35
  God is behind Trump.
• 27:37
  Uh, like the nose let the nosebleeds and sue.
• 27:43
  So, yeah, uh, this is really cool.
• 27:47
  You know, and Nicki Minaj, by the way, to be completely fair, she was a former Trump critic.
• 27:55
  In 2020, she said, I'm not gonna jump on the Trump bandwagon.
• 28:00
  And now she's pledging 150,000 to 300,000 to help fund Trump accounts and calls herself Trump's number one fan.
• 28:09
  And you have to ask yourself, what changed?
• 28:13
  What flipped that script?
• 28:16
  Script.
• 28:17
  There's a T on the end of that.
• 28:18
  What flipped the script?
• 28:21
  And I think I know what it is.
• 28:23
  Uh, you know, I haven't dug deep into Mickey Nicki Minaj's history, and I'm just not that interested.
• 28:31
  But I'm seeing a lot of people, I mean a lot of people who used to belong to to the left.
• 28:38
  And by belong, I mean truly devoted.
• 28:41
  They were loyal customers of the left, everything left wing.
• 28:50
  And they're they're coming back, and I see video after video and article after article.
• 28:57
  People are saying it's just there's it's so radicalized and so hateful and so confusing, like they have no idea what they stand for.
• 29:09
  They they're just all over the map.
• 29:14
  And it's all they know how to do is resist and be angry and yell at people and shove people and insult people.
• 29:23
  That's all they know.
• 29:25
  And we don't want to be a part of that anymore.
• 29:27
  And I say kudos to the people who uh who've walked away from that.
• 29:32
  And I would say the same.
• 29:34
  I mean, honestly, there are people who've left the extreme right and said the very same thing.
• 29:41
  And that's the thing about being a radical.
• 29:44
  I mean, if you're really radicalized, your political party becomes your your religion.
• 29:52
  And that's where people they can't, they can't make informed decisions, and that's why you'll hear me say this all the time.
• 29:59
  It's
• 30:00
  I don't care about liking or not liking a president.
• 30:05
  I'm just not.
• 30:06
  I'm not a fanboy of President Trump.
• 30:09
  I'm really not.
• 30:12
  But some of his policies.
• 30:16
  Some of his policies are really good, and this happens to be one of them.
• 30:20
  I think this was such a smart move.
• 30:23
  The Trump accounts, that is.
• 30:25
  Such a smart move.
• 30:29
  I think it it's so important.
• 30:33
  It's so important for parents to set this up.
• 30:38
  And my understanding is that they have to opt into it.
• 30:42
  You know, it's not just an automatic thousand dollars that magically appears in every kid's account.
• 30:49
  My understanding.
• 30:51
  I could be wrong.
• 30:54
  But my understanding from everything that I've read about it is that uh you have to opt into it.
• 31:02
  So uh turns out Nikki's not the only one doing it.
• 31:09
  We'll talk more about that in a little bit.
• 31:12
  There are a lot, a lot of companies that are doing the same thing.
• 31:16
  They're matching, they're doing matching contributions.
• 31:21
  So the thousand turns into 2,000, which is really incredible.
• 31:25
  And I think that's an annual thing.
• 31:29
  So here we go.
• 31:30
  This is a CNBC article.
• 31:35
  All children born between 2025 and 2028 qualify for an initial 1,000 dollar Trump account deposit from the treasury, which parents can opt into when opening the account.
• 31:48
  So that's that's what I'm talking about.
• 31:50
  Everything points to this is just not an automatic.
• 31:53
  You have to actually opt into it to receive that thousand dollars.
• 32:01
  So here we go.
• 32:02
  There's a growing list of companies, including JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Intel, Chime, SoFi, Charter Communications, BNY, BlackRo, Investment Company Institute, Robin Hood, and Charles and Schwab.
• 32:22
  They've all announced, every one of them have announced that they're gonna match the federal $1,000 contribution for their employees' children.
• 32:33
  Isn't that the same thing that Nikki Minaj did?
• 32:37
  She's doing it just for her fans.
• 32:39
  She's not doing it for all of America, like Dell did.
• 32:44
  You know, Dell, uh, they're doing it for the entire nation.
• 32:51
  And that's for kids that are under 18 but haven't been born between 2025 and 28.
• 32:58
  Which is incredible.
• 32:59
  I absolutely incredible.
• 33:03
  So look at the generosity out there.
• 33:05
  And again, this goes back to there's such a different, there's such a difference in narratives.
• 33:12
  And they couldn't be any farther apart.
• 33:15
  They really couldn't.
• 33:17
  One is about destruction, tearing down, protesting, boycotting, uh, asking the government, demanding the government for more money, more handouts, make the rich people pay their fair share, tax, tax, tax.
• 33:32
  That's the narrative on the one side.
• 33:35
  And on the other side is the kind of the free market capitalism, just leave us alone and let us live our life and mind our own business, and we'll happily contribute.
• 33:49
  None of these companies have to give a thousand dollars per each employee's child.
• 33:58
  And and what I don't know is uh whether these companies are gonna fund kids that don't fall into that the born between 2025 and 2028.
• 34:19
  What I don't know is are are they gonna expand that, or is it only gonna be for kids who are born?
• 34:25
  You know, they kind of fall under the Trump account guidelines.
• 34:29
  I don't know that.
• 34:31
  But here we go.
• 34:33
  Other one-time funding opportunities include 250 dollars for certain kids, certain age kids, 10 and under CEO, Michael Dell and his wife Susan 6.5 billion dollar pledge.
• 34:51
  And I did an entire show on that before, and I just think that's such an incredible gift.
• 34:57
  And right away, I mean, the the left took that.
• 35:00
  Here's what they did with that.
• 35:01
  And again, we have to draw this contrast.
• 35:06
  The left took the absolute worst, most unflattering photographs that they could find of Susan Dell, and they started posting those pictures.
• 35:16
  The media did it.
• 35:19
  And did you see what they did with Alex Predi, the agitator who was shot in Minnesota?
• 35:28
  Did you see what they what MS now did with his photo?
• 35:33
  They used artificial intelligence and manipulated his photo to make him look more flattering.
• 35:41
  They smoothed out the contours of his face, kind of cleaned them up, gave him color.
• 35:46
  He's like a super white pale dude.
• 35:50
  They gave him nice color.
• 35:52
  And so there are photos out here of the before photo and then the altered photo that MS now did.
• 36:00
  I mean, like this kind of crap is it's so unbelievable.
• 36:07
  Um deny it.
• 36:11
  Uh, we didn't we didn't alter it.
• 36:12
  It's very clearly altered.
• 36:16
  So they, you know, they take an agitator.
• 36:20
  And again, I'm not saying that his death was justified.
• 36:22
  I I think that was a definitely everything about that went south.
• 36:29
  Um, I don't, you know, from from the videos I saw, it doesn't look like that would have been a justified shooting.
• 36:36
  So I, you know, um nobody celebrating the death of Alex Pready.
• 36:43
  Um, but uh there are all these footages of him from days prior, kicking tail lights out, spitting on ice agents, getting up in their faces and just screaming at them, mfing them.
• 36:57
  You know, the the the guy's he's not the nice, beautiful, wonderful person that they make him out to be.
• 37:07
  It screams domestic violence all over this guy, the way he behaves.
• 37:12
  So they alter his photo, and then Michael and Susan Dell give $6.25 billion, and what do they do?
• 37:19
  They alter, well, they don't alter, they just pick photos that are very unflattering of Susan Dell.
• 37:26
  And I just I think it's cruel, and it shows it shows how low these people go.
• 37:33
  When you disagree with them, they're gonna smear you, even when you do really, really, really kind things.
• 37:40
  And uh, it's just crazy.
• 37:42
  So who knows what they're gonna do to make Nicki Minaj next, but uh it ain't gonna be pretty.

  Nicki Minaj, self-proclaimed number one fan of President Trump.
• 39:56
  She decided to give 150,000 to 300.
• 40:00
  thousand dollars to kind of seed people's um Trump accounts and I think it's really cool I think it's so generous and uh just a cool thing to do a nice thing to do so uh we have 600,000 families who've already signed up for the Trump accounts since the official start of the tax season and uh this is a really really cool thing uh it's it's not a ton of people but that's kind of encouraging Nikki Minaj has vowed to give money to her fans she was there when Bessent and President Trump talked about the Trump accounts last Wednesday and she's not the only one not by long shot and this is one of those things and I have to think that Michael and Susan Dell kind of started this I I don't know I don't know for sure if that's the case but uh I this is one of the benefits of somebody doing something generous and boy were they generous they pledged over six billion dollars 6.25 billion to be exact and they did that to fund children who are not eligible to receive the 1,000 dollar treasury seed money so they're going above and beyond and and that's just really it's really generous it really is how did the left react how did they respond did they talk about what a great idea that was did they talk about how that was going to benefit lots of children did they talk about how Michael and Susan Dell are incredibly generous finally like finally these wealthy people are are are coughing up their fair share no instead the media found the most unflattering photographs of Susan Dell that they could possibly dig up they put those photos you know when um photographers uh are down low they're kind of on the ground and the camera's pointing up at somebody's face trust me when I say that is not a flattering angle when you have a camera down below your face it just makes you look like you have a double chin it's just it's not a flattering view and that's exactly what they did they they took photos where photographers were down on the knee pointing up at Susan Dell and uh they posted those pictures all over the internet and the idea was to make her look very unflattering and other people were criticizing well that's only that's only 250 for the kids that that won't do anything I mean it's just it's unbelievable and I've I've heard people say even if Trump cured cancer the left would go absolutely insane and they'd find a way to criticize him and I at this point I believe it after what we're seeing here and this is just an example I I want you to hear Anna Navarro I think this was on um it was on CNN maybe I don't know I don't watch I don't watch this kind of nonsense but I want you to hear how she describes Alex Pretdy right he's he's the guy spinning on ice agents he's the guy kicking their taillights out he's the guy getting up in their faces screaming at them absolutely screaming calling them MF P words just being an absolute tyrant jerk idiot of a guy and again I am not saying that he deserved to die he did not but the guy had domestic violence written all over his face the way he was behaving and the advocacy community too they're they're praising him like he's just it's like the Maryland dad kind of thing he's this wonderful guy he's so great um he was a family man he was he was a nurse for veterans what a wonderful wonderful soft spoken man and just everybody had everything good to say about him and uh the guy was like I I just I fear if he had any woman in the house the way that he behaved I mean uh extreme anger issues this went well beyond protesting what he was doing was not protesting all right so I want you to hear how she describes him listen to this perfect guy Alex Prady's the guy you would want to date your daughter that want the guy you would want your son to grow up to be a decent human being who was serving humanity serving sick veterans who is you know there is nothing that has been said about that man that isn't wonderful they killed so yeah they killed the wrong man he was wonderful the kind of guy you would want your daughter to I wouldn't want my daughter to date somebody who's kicking tail lights out somebody who's throwing temper tantrums somebody who's getting up in people's faces and yelling and screaming at them and spitting on people not the kind of guy I'd want my daughter to date no thanks my daughter ever dated anybody like them they would be escorted off of my property really quickly that is not the kind of deadbeat that I would want my daughter to date but you see what they do you see the narrative he's this wonderful man and they hide that footage right they they don't show that footage because they create a narrative that he's he's this he's this VA nurse and he's look at his picture look at his face meanwhile it's an AI altered image that's what all the left wing media puts out and not that his original image was bad it's not like he looked terrible in that picture at all but they doctored it to make it look flawless like he was this you know almost this GQ model it's just so dishonest and and you know this is what I talk about the media they want us to be so divided and they work overtime to do it they can't just look at facts and they can't just you know they can't just say okay this death was an absolute tragedy it very much should have been prevented I I think that's pretty clear it should have been prevented but the problem is their rhetoric the rhetoric is so dangerous they talk about Trump they use the the N-word obsessantly he's a Nazi Nazi Nazi Nazi Nazi right they say it thousands of times and what image does that put in people's minds I mean I I remember walking through a Holocaust um a site it was a it was a concentration camp in France one of the biggest ones from Nazi Germany you know during World War II and I remember feeling absolute hatred towards towards Adolf Hitler I I I walked through and I was I was livid I was sad I was I was angry I I wanted him to come back from the dead so I could yell and scream in his face and I wouldn't that's not my character but that's how I felt right and if I felt that way how how do violent people feel people who actually are violent people who are accustomed to being mad and angry and they just have to get in people's faces and yell and scream and spit and they think that that's appropriate justice and the left knows this the media knows this the politicians know this and that's why they use that word it's very intentional and so anybody associated with President Trump they call fascists Nazis on and on they they use all kinds of slurs that intentionally make people angry it brings up an image that's an angry image and meanwhile if you look at the facts how many people have died under since ICE has been doing its thing how many protesters have died to
• 50:02
  Now it's two too many.
• 50:05
  But two.
• 50:09
  And if you step back and think about the numbers.
• 50:15
  And then you compare that to the narrative.
• 50:18
  It's that Trump is a murderer, that ICE is they're lining people up, as AOC said.
• 50:24
  They're lining people up and executing them.
• 50:27
  No, they're not.
• 50:30
  What they don't talk about are the number of ICE agents who've been badly injured.
• 50:36
  You see the guy who got his finger bit off by one of these mobsters.
• 50:43
  Like this is the kind of stuff they're dealing with every single day.
• 50:49
  People getting up in their faces, blowing whistles in their in their ears, deafening them, deafening whistles, honking their horns, impeding traffic, ramming ICE's vehicles with their own personal vehicles.
• 51:04
  It's amazing there haven't been more deaths, to be honest.
• 51:11
  But you know, you look at that, you look at the actual numbers.
• 51:16
  And nationwide, you have crime rates way, way, way down.
• 51:21
  Overdose deaths cut in half.
• 51:24
  10,000 less deaths from overdoses in 2025 compared to 2024.
• 51:32
  Tens of thousands of people whose lives are being spared because of the policies of Donald J.
• 51:41
  Trump.
• 51:43
  And again, this is not this is not being a fanboy.
• 51:47
  This is not saying that I support the things that he does.
• 51:51
  It's not saying that I support even half of his policies.
• 51:57
  It's just looking at the facts and compared to what the media does.
• 52:02
  So now with the Trump accounts, all these companies, they're all going to be villainized.
• 52:08
  I guarantee it.
• 52:21
  So here's another article.
• 52:24
  Um this is economic times.
• 52:28
  IndiaTimes.com.
• 52:30
  Who's matching Trump's thousand dollar contribution?
• 52:33
  Full list of employers joining their Trump accounts push.
• 52:38
  Millions of parents and guardians in the United States will soon be able to save money for their children through new Trump accounts.
• 52:47
  It's the 530A accounts created under the one big beautiful bill.
• 52:54
  And uh eligible children are babies born in the U.S.
• 52:59
  between January 1, 2025 and December 31, 2028.
• 53:06
  So it's the initial $1,000 deposit from the government.
• 53:10
  I'm all for taxpayer money being spent this way.
• 53:15
  It's one of the best uses of taxes that I've seen in a very long time.
• 53:23
  So the companies, they're matching it, they're matching the thousand dollars, and that applies to eligible employees' children.
• 53:33
  The goal is to encourage early wealth building for kids starting at birth.
• 53:39
  Major financial institutions are leading the employer matching effort.
• 53:44
  Daily Express U.S.
• 53:46
  reported.
• 53:47
  JP Morgan Chase confirmed it'll match the $1,000 Trump account contribution.
• 53:54
  I already mentioned some of these Bank of America.
• 53:57
  JP Morgan.
• 54:00
  JP Morgan's CEO, Jamie Diamond said the the match helps employees save early and plan for their family's future.
• 54:11
  Stake and shake jumped on this.
• 54:14
  It'll match a thousand dollars for each employee's child born between 2025 and 28.
• 54:21
  They said that this move supports the next generation's financial future.
• 54:30
  This is changing the current within the United States.
• 54:34
  I mean, this is a radical shift.
• 54:38
  A radical shift.
• 54:40
  Where we went from not educating the youth, not talking about finances, you know, everything's hidden, everything's just kind of not talked about in schools.
• 54:49
  They don't talk about finances hardly at all.
• 54:52
  And now all of a sudden, this puts it on the radar of parents and parents are like, hey.
• 55:00
  We can talk to our kids about finances.
• 55:05
  Right?
• 55:05
  We we can we can actually start saving now.
• 55:09
  And the companies, the bosses, the employers are saying, we're hoping that this changes the future of every one of your kids.
• 55:18
  This has potential.
• 55:22
  You know, it's it's the potential to shift the course of these kids' lives forever.
• 55:30
  The uh I did have this up, but I don't see my tab, my tab disappeared on me.
• 55:36
  But uh on the Trumpaccounts.gov website, I'll link to that in the show notes.
• 55:43
  They have a little thing where you you can see if you contribute, if you max out those accounts, you can contribute $5,000 a year.
• 55:52
  If you max them out, by the time that kid reaches 50, what is it, 55 years old, it's something like 2.7 million dollars that kid will have at 55.
• 56:06
  Now you tell me which is better, Social Security or the Trump accounts.
• 56:11
  I'll go with the Trump counts any day of the week over Social Security.
• 56:18
  I love the Trump accounts.
• 56:19
  I think this really truly genuinely legitimately is one of the best policies that President Trump has implemented.
• 56:28
  It really is.
• 56:30
  So it's my hope and prayer that people will latch on to this, that people will take advantage of it, that parents will take advantage of it, and I think that we're gonna see a growing number of companies that are gonna be doing matching amounts.
• 56:46
  And that's good news for it's good news for America.
• 56:50
  If we really care about poverty in America, this is gonna keep a lot of kids potentially keep a lot of kids out of living in poverty for the rest of their lives.
• 57:03
  So if we legitimately care about the homeless, the poor, the vulnerable, this ought to be something that we all get behind.
