Transcript
- 0:25Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Preston Super Show.
- 0:30Thank you for joining me. Thank you for being.
- 0:34How about that game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the
- 0:37Indiana Pacers for game three of the NBA Finals?
- 0:43The Indiana Pacers took it home 116 to 107 and now lead the
- 0:50series 2 to one. The first to four games.
- 0:54One will be your NBA champions of 2025.
- 0:59How about that? So we shall see the next game as
- 1:02in two days for the Pacers are back at home and we will see if
- 1:09they will carry this momentum into that game.
- 1:15One thing I will say is that I told everybody the Pacers on the
- 1:20spread was the best place to be on myodman.com, which is always
- 1:27the best place to be. But a + 6 on the spread for the
- 1:32Pacers came back at -115 how about that?
- 1:38What a beautiful day. The plus 180 underdog Indiana
- 1:42Pacers come through and they look sharp coming off of the
- 1:48bench. Once the starters start to calm
- 1:53their nerves, the tide is already shifted.
- 1:58This game is going to be crucial.
- 2:03I know one thing, the Thunder are licking their wounds after
- 2:09that game. They had opportunities, they
- 2:13came out strong, but towards the end of the third quarter,
- 2:21towards the middle to late fourth quarter, the Thunder were
- 2:28stuttering and they stumbled big time in this one and the Indiana
- 2:36Pacers took advantage of that. A huge, monumental moment for
- 2:41the Indiana Pacers. They have a very good team, a
- 2:45complete team on the floor. But the MVP of this game had to
- 2:52be TJ McConnell. They felt a little bit empty in
- 3:00the spirit department until TJ McConnell stepped up and started
- 3:09knocking down some shots, started going after some
- 3:13rebounds and just helped his team become a little bit more
- 3:20aggressive. Ultimately, a game for the ages
- 3:26and TJ McConnell did finish with 10 points, 5 assists to five
- 3:29steals for the Indiana. And I'm telling you right now,
- 3:35nobody has ever come off the bench and done that in an NBA
- 3:39Finals game. And the Pacers were shooting
- 3:46outstandingly well after they started off sluggish in the
- 3:52first quarter. They put up 40 points in the
- 3:55second quarter and they never looked back.
- 3:59And Oklahoma City Thunder has a huge problem.
- 4:02They only scored 18 points in the fourth quarter and they came
- 4:08up very short in a game where they had the momentum.
- 4:12So game four will show us how much this Oklahoma City Thunders
- 4:19team ego has been damaged by this humiliating defeat by the
- 4:25Indiana Basers who completely took over this game.
- 4:31And at times, the Thunder did make it close, but that was
- 4:36because of their leader. The Pacers were a community
- 4:42effort, with Halliburton adding 11 assists and 9 rebounds and
- 4:50Pascal Siakam, who showed up big for this team in clutch moments,
- 4:57knocking down clutch buckets. I really think that this Pacers
- 5:02team is deserving of the Finals trophy if they go on and finish
- 5:09the deal. But something tells me Oklahoma
- 5:13City will not lie down and they might try to take this next game
- 5:19and then the next one when they go back to OK C.
- 5:25So we shall see. But overall, was very impressed
- 5:29with the effort from both sides. I think that it was humiliating
- 5:36for the Thunder because you had the momentum coming into this
- 5:40game and it was the bench that beat you.
- 5:44And yes, there were, you know, a few players that are going to
- 5:50have to do a lot better for the Pacers to finish this thing off.
- 5:56Halliburton is not one of them. He he's doing the right thing.
- 6:01Siakam is not one of them. He's doing the right thing.
- 6:03He had 21 points, Halliburton had 22 points.
- 6:07But Naismith, Miles Turner, Andrew Nemhard, Nemhard
- 6:12especially because he's one of the X factors in this game.
- 6:17And as far as opportunities, he was 3 for five.
- 6:24So it was a terrible and Naismith was 3 for five, so not
- 6:31terrible. But here's the thing, you're
- 6:34looking at Nemhardt, who played 33 minutes.
- 6:37You need more opportunities. Miles Turner, 3411.
- 6:43So what you want to see him do is go to the paint, go to the
- 6:46rack. Where you're excelling is with
- 6:51guys like OB top and who come off the bench, play 28 minutes
- 6:55and knock down a couple clutch buckets.
- 7:00Guys like TJ McConnell clutching it up.
- 7:05The the star of the bench outside of TJ McConnell this
- 7:09season has been Benedict Matheran.
- 7:12He put in 22 minutes tonight when 9 for 12 he was playing
- 7:16better than some of the starters.
- 7:18And This is why the Indiana Pacers are in a great position
- 7:24to go on and win this NBA Finals.
- 7:27But it will not be easy, you understand, will not be easy
- 7:31because what you're going to see is a huge push now from this
- 7:37Oklahoma City Thunders team, a huge rally now.
- 7:41And that's all going to play out in two nights on the 13th.
- 7:48So stay tuned. We'll see what happens then.
- 7:50But great win for the Pacers, huge for that fan base, huge for
- 7:55Indiana as a state. For my fellow wrestling fans out
- 8:00there. Let's talk about WWE NXT from
- 8:04Tuesday night, and then I will talk about WWE Evolve from
- 8:09Wednesday night. Tonight, on Tuesday night, WWE
- 8:13NXT, which you can watch always on The CW, Ethan Page, the NXT
- 8:20North American Champion defeated Sean Legacy.
- 8:25Good back and forth, little bit of action outside the ring.
- 8:29The crowd was loving it and who doesn't love the NXT crowd?
- 8:33They really get behind these guys.
- 8:35That's a fun environment. Great win for Ethan Page and
- 8:41after the match Ricky Saints shows up and then him and Ethan
- 8:46Page are having a whole nother match around the arena.
- 8:49So that was definitely something to see.
- 8:53I did like that match by the way.
- 8:55I thought it was pretty good. The next match was a little bit
- 8:59of a new development where we had the culling up against Josh
- 9:03Briggs and Yoshiki Ina Mora and Josh Briggs was rolling around
- 9:12early. He had to go in early and the
- 9:15culling is down to three members, but it didn't stop
- 9:20them. They were ignited and they
- 9:23infused together to defeat Josh Briggs and Yoshiki.
- 9:28It was a good match. Quick match didn't take long and
- 9:32I want to know what the plan is for Yoshiki so I'm watching
- 9:36intently. Next up we had Lash Legend.
- 9:42First Rin Sinclair. Now Rin Sinclair has been
- 9:48chomping at the bit to get some opportunities to have some
- 9:52matches against some bigger name ladies.
- 9:55Here's Lash Legend, the always impressive Lash Legend put on a
- 10:02show and did Ren Sinclair a favor.
- 10:06Lash Legend defeats Ren Sinclair in a great match.
- 10:08I like the match. It was a sidewalk slam into a
- 10:13pen and Lash Legend wins. JC Jane was out to defend her
- 10:20title for the first time and her first title defense was a
- 10:24successful one. She took down Laney Reid and
- 10:29Laney Reid put on a good performance.
- 10:31She had her moments at times look like she could win, but at
- 10:36the end of this one the rolling encore from JC Jane sealed the
- 10:42deal. Love the match.
- 10:46Great work between these two and Jaycee.
- 10:50Jane can sell a clothesline, can't she?
- 10:53She can sell a clothesline from hell.
- 10:59Then we had high rise up against the family.
- 11:03The family consisting of Tony, DeAngelo and Crucifino.
- 11:09But there's controversy halfway through the match.
- 11:13Here comes stacks with a pipe looking like he might hurt Tony
- 11:18D and what happens? High rise takes advantage and
- 11:24they don't slow down. They grab a hold of Tony D, put
- 11:29them up in the air, drop them down and finish the deal.
- 11:34Great teamwork at the end by high Rise to seal the deal.
- 11:39Get a big win over the family who looked to be in disarray.
- 11:43Just complete disarray after that.
- 11:46Then the main event NXT champion Obafemi defending his belt
- 11:51against Jasper Troy in Obafemi first Jasper Troy showed two
- 12:02different skill sets. Jasper Troy, although he fights
- 12:09a lot like Obafemi, he does it in a different way.
- 12:14He showed off his range, his skill set, his power was on full
- 12:20display. And I like seeing the WWE NXT
- 12:25Top 10 highlights where you will see some of these bits and
- 12:31pieces from what I've spoken about.
- 12:34But ultimately you've seen Obafemi when and defend his
- 12:42title once again. And Jasper Troy had a great
- 12:47opportunity there. I think he made the most of it.
- 12:50I don't think he needed to win the match to become the man.
- 12:56I think he just needed to put on a good performance, have a good
- 13:00match, a memorable match that capped off a really good NXT.
- 13:04Now we can look at WWE Evolve from Wednesday and I love WWE
- 13:10Evolved on Tubi. It's a very good show.
- 13:13It's a great hour program. My favorite match from WWE
- 13:18Evolve was definitely Nikita Lyons and Zeta Steele up against
- 13:24Mason Holiday and Layla Diggs. All four beauties in this match
- 13:31and Nikita Lyons took over was dominant, but also where's she
- 13:38been? You know, I mean, I think she
- 13:41should be on the main brand right now.
- 13:43I don't know if she took some time away and that's kind of,
- 13:46you know, what was holding that up.
- 13:49But also Zeta's steel great with her finesse in her in ring
- 13:55ability, but also the tag team ability of these two, the gel.
- 14:01There's some cohesiveness to this unit and on the other side
- 14:05Mason Holiday and Layla Biggs put on a great match.
- 14:10Loved the match, great work. I was a big fan of this match.
- 14:14I thought Nikita Lyons was able to do a few things like bull
- 14:19rushing her opponent into the ring, showing the glamour side
- 14:28for the ladies and the men who were under that, and then
- 14:32showing the brute, strained physical force that wrestling
- 14:38fans want to see. Especially with Nikita Lyons, as
- 14:44thick of a figure as she is, she can really match up well with
- 14:48anybody based on her attributes and Zeta Steele really put on a
- 14:54great performance. I think all four ladies put on a
- 14:56great performance. I was impressed with the match
- 15:00now that the next week on Wednesday, you're going to see
- 15:05Nikita Lions, Zeta Steel and they're going to be taking on
- 15:12Kelly Armstrong and Natalia. And remember, Kelly Armstrong is
- 15:18the WWE Evolved Women's Champion.
- 15:21So we did great tag team match next Wednesday.
- 15:26Looking forward to that. Let's talk about another match
- 15:31that was really cool, really fun.
- 15:33It's Gall up against Troy Yearwood.
- 15:40Great match. Here's Troy Yearwood.
- 15:43This guy's in some phenomenal shape.
- 15:47But I think the story was, it's Gall quit his day job to do this
- 15:55full time. And this match was great.
- 16:00You know, it was a lot of fun, just like the match with Zeta
- 16:04Steele and and Nikita Lions. And I think that, yes, it did
- 16:10pay off for its goal. Win or lose, it was going to be
- 16:16something that we all wanted to see play out because there was a
- 16:21huge story behind it. But I think he'd learned
- 16:24something. I think he'd learned something
- 16:26very important that yes, you could go around and you could be
- 16:30like, yeah, I'm a bodybuilder and I'm doing this and I'm doing
- 16:33that. And then you wrote it to a guy
- 16:35like Troy Yearwood, vastly bigger than you.
- 16:40Not only that, but then when when it came to in the ring, he
- 16:47was smoother and there was a couple times where it looked
- 16:53like it was pretty even. But I think ultimately to be as
- 16:56big as Troy Yearwood is and carry around all that mass, but
- 17:03then be able to be as athletic as he is, is the reason right
- 17:08now you put him over its gall, give its gall more time, let him
- 17:12bulk up more, let him continue to do what he wants to do.
- 17:15But it was just a good reality check for him to see like, yeah,
- 17:20you're big. But dude, even on the beginning
- 17:24of WWE circuit, the beginning circuit right here at EVOLVE,
- 17:30Troy Yearwood is bigger than you.
- 17:32So you have a lot of work to do to be in the WWE if that's what
- 17:37your angle is. If you're going to be the big
- 17:39guy, if you're going to be the tough guy, if that's your angle,
- 17:42you're going to have to start lifting the weights.
- 17:45There's no other way around it. And you're going to have to bulk
- 17:48up. But also you have to keep that
- 17:51athleticism about you. But I did enjoy that match and
- 17:55it's call is good. He is good and he did a lot by
- 17:59giving up his job. If that's all true and
- 18:01everything, you know, it's not just part of the gimmick.
- 18:04If he did give up his job, that's very honorable, but he's
- 18:07going to have to go get his job back because he definitely lost
- 18:11unless they're throwing him a bone and giving him a match next
- 18:14week, which is very possible. However, Troy Yearwood wins and
- 18:24he does it in a way that I think will boost his stock, but he
- 18:28needs a completely new wardrobe, as does it's Gall.
- 18:32You know, it's Gall came out there looking like he had two
- 18:35lanyards on like a freaking Walmart employee.
- 18:38And you had Troy Yearwood out there who came out looking like
- 18:46the first time he's going to be in a boxing match.
- 18:49You know, he's dressed like his first outing.
- 18:52Up next, we had Wesley versus Cappuccino Jones, who looks so
- 18:59much like I shall speed the influencer on social media, but
- 19:05Cappuccino Jones much more athletic than I shall speed.
- 19:09And here's the thing about Cappuccino Jones, He's looking
- 19:13to really make a name, make a dent in this wrestling business.
- 19:18And I like that about him. I like that he has some
- 19:21tenacity. He has some fire.
- 19:23He was in there super focused. He was, you know, giving some
- 19:28hard sells. He was going hard and Wesley
- 19:33gave him a good match. Wesley did not take anything for
- 19:37granted in this match. The high flying ability of both
- 19:41of these WWE Superstars were on full display.
- 19:46Both of these individual stocks were boosted and it's an
- 19:51interesting development for Wesley, who came out with two
- 19:54security members. He's got the two members of his
- 19:57entourage. Cappuccino Jones has some
- 20:00supporters in his corner, but there wasn't anything going on
- 20:04with that, which was, you know, maybe an opportunity there, but.
- 20:09In the future, you know that Cappuccino Jones is making
- 20:13noise. I think they're building them up
- 20:14for an NXT run. But also Wesley is the second
- 20:21longest reigning NXT North American Champion.
- 20:27So it makes me wonder if there's going to be that type of North
- 20:33American Championship on Evolve, and maybe that will be a title
- 20:38match for down the road or maybe there'll be a little mini
- 20:41tournament for that. But there's some opportunities
- 20:45here with this one hour program on Tubi that you could check out
- 20:49at any time. I'll go to X, formerly known as
- 20:54Twitter, and you can follow at WWEID.
- 20:58Again, that's at WWEID. You can keep up with what's
- 21:04going on with WWENXT and Evolved as well as the rest of the
- 21:08talent in the WWE Universe. You can also follow me at
- 21:13Preston's Day Off as we move into the next part of the show
- 21:17where I'm bringing our attention to some very important issues as
- 21:21we wrap up sports. The Florida Panthers are up
- 21:26against the Edmonton Oilers tonight, 7:00 PM Thursday, June
- 21:31the 12th of 2025. The Panthers lead this series
- 21:36two games to one. This will be a very exciting
- 21:40game. The Oilers have to turn it
- 21:42around now or this will slip out of their hands.
- 21:46But there are a lot of important stories happening, a lot of
- 21:50breaking news coming out from all of the circles.
- 21:56Look here, let's talk about something positive.
- 21:59Let's talk about something good. GM, you know good old General
- 22:04Motors, has decided to invest $4 billion in American
- 22:12manufacturing shift, meaning they are moving from Mexico to
- 22:18America. Let's talk about how they're
- 22:21doing first, they're doubling down on that $888 million
- 22:29investment into their Tonawanda plant.
- 22:34This $4 billion investment is separate from that.
- 22:40This move will shift production from Mexico to the United States
- 22:46of America. This investment will occur over
- 22:50the next two years into gas and electric vehicle production.
- 22:56G Ms. manufacturing plant in Spring Hill, TN.
- 23:01We'll add production of the Chevrolet Trailblazer in 2027.
- 23:07The Fairfax Assembly plant in Kansas City, KS will begin
- 23:12producing the Equinox beginning in mid 2027, and the Kansas
- 23:19plant is on track to produce the Chevrolet Bolt EV by the end of
- 23:26this year. The Orion Township plant in
- 23:30Michigan will produce gas powered, full size SU VS and
- 23:35light duty pickup trucks in early 2027 due to surging
- 23:41demand. General Motors CEO and Chair
- 23:46Mary Barra reaffirm the company's willingness to support
- 23:50American workers. This is a huge investment.
- 23:56It's even on the White House wire, so you can read on the
- 24:00White House website this story as well as myodman.com.
- 24:06That was my piece I just read to you.
- 24:10The Hill also has a great piece on this, thehill.com.
- 24:15They wrote a good piece on this as well.
- 24:18What I really like about this investment is it is more towards
- 24:23gas powered than electric powered.
- 24:27And I think that is the core of this investment showing that
- 24:33yes, it's good to have these electric vehicles.
- 24:37Let's say you have a lower end model and a higher end model,
- 24:43meaning you have the compact, affordable, let's go well over
- 24:48300 miles before having to charge with the ability to put
- 24:55two people in the back, have someone in the passenger.
- 24:58You need that type of electric vehicle.
- 25:01Then you need the electric vehicle.
- 25:02It's a little bit more sporty. An upgrade from that still has
- 25:08the eco friendly advantages, has the upgrades and what have you,
- 25:14but then you need a top of the line luxury class that only this
- 25:19class gets these certain benefits and traits.
- 25:22Again, eco friendly. Again, electric is fine.
- 25:28In the future it will be easier to sustain these electric
- 25:32vehicles, but it takes time and it's going to take a lot of
- 25:36time. So that is something that needs
- 25:39to be a smaller dose of where your money's being pushed out
- 25:45to, in my opinion. I would focus on that mentality.
- 25:48Maybe have three of those economy class, sport class
- 25:54electric vehicles. Then you look at the highest
- 25:58class luxury models and maybe you do two of those.
- 26:05That way you could focus on your gas powered where the demand is,
- 26:10where you're seeing the demand for the trucks and SUVs, but the
- 26:15demand will surge for cars that are great on gas.
- 26:20The best gas mileage is going to come into play very shortly
- 26:25here. Another interesting development
- 26:28is Senator Josh Hawley. The Republican is wanting to
- 26:35raise the federal minimum wage to $15 per hour starting in
- 26:402026. Now here's why that is
- 26:44interesting. He is out of Missouri where
- 26:48their minimum wage is higher than the national average.
- 26:53And I'm in Illinois where the minimum wage is $15 per hour.
- 27:02But the online companies can come in and try to hire you.
- 27:08The remote companies or remote jobs can try to come and hire
- 27:11you for the federal minimum wage, which is $7.25 per hour.
- 27:18So yes, I do agree that the minimum wage needs to be raised
- 27:24to $50.00 an hour on the federal level.
- 27:27I support that. I have for a long time.
- 27:30It needs to be much higher than that to sustain any type of
- 27:35life, to pay any bills and to actually get a decent tax
- 27:42return, you will need more than that.
- 27:45So what I would say is the minimum wage should be at $17.00
- 27:54an hour. That should be where your
- 27:56minimum wage is at the national, the federal minimum wage should
- 28:01be $17.00 an hour. That is the bottom line in my
- 28:06opinion. Anything under that in Illinois
- 28:10still at $15.00 an hour is not cutting the mustard.
- 28:16It just does not. And people will tell you that in
- 28:21droves because if you look at the number of people that are
- 28:25leaving, it is astronomical. And if you don't have family
- 28:30ties or family history here or something keeping you here, I
- 28:36don't see why you would want to live in Illinois.
- 28:39And I believe in the beauty of this state and maintaining the
- 28:42beauty of this state. I'll be the first one to say I
- 28:45have my own law. If a tree gets cut down, I
- 28:48believe another tree should be planted.
- 28:51And as a matter of fact, 2 trees should be planted.
- 28:57And I also think that if you're going to use paper, you should
- 29:04try to find paper sources that are from hemp, because hemp was
- 29:11passed in that 2018 farm bill by President Trump to protect our
- 29:16trees. So think smart, think a little
- 29:21bit more like a minimalist and be economical with your
- 29:26movements, with your actions, with your behaviors.
- 29:31It's going to help you out a lot.
- 29:33But I do like Josh Hawley stepping up and doing this.
- 29:37And then Senator Peter Welch has come in as well.
- 29:43And they're calling this the Higher Wages for American
- 29:46Workers Act. And I'd like to see them act
- 29:49fast on it. But I do believe there will be a
- 29:53lot of pushback from the Republican side.
- 29:57But with the Democrats right now all supporting it in the Senate,
- 30:04it's possible they could get enough support in the House to
- 30:09get this done. So it's very possible we could
- 30:13see this happen, which would be great for the country.
- 30:17It would be absolutely wonderful for the country and it wood
- 30:23forest companies to pay people what they're worth, which is
- 30:28more than $15.00 an hour. And that's what would start
- 30:32happening because our country, sadly, has a thirst for cheap
- 30:36labor. And I've heard sheriffs in Texas
- 30:40explain it the best, where companies want to get as much
- 30:45cheap labor as possible, meaning illegal aliens, which all 10
- 30:50million of them need to be out of our country.
- 30:52And anybody hiring illegal aliens needs to go to jail.
- 30:57That's what I believe. Thank you Newsmax for that
- 31:01story. We see that the US House of
- 31:05Representatives has been working very hard and the GOP LED House
- 31:10has pushed through the doge cuts.
- 31:12The first round at least in a vote that was 213 to 207 nays,
- 31:20but the yeas have it with 213. And this first round of DOGE
- 31:26cuts is very important because it's something that Senator
- 31:34Marshall Blackburn from Tennessee has come in and put
- 31:39NPR and PBS on the chopping block.
- 31:43And now in the House, they've signaled they're all on board
- 31:48with the DOGE cuts. As DOGE is working right now,
- 31:52going through and sifting through the records of Social
- 31:55Security, seeing where the fraud are, seeing where the fraudsters
- 32:00lie, and seeing where the mistakes have been made.
- 32:04The clerical errors, the malpractice, the financial
- 32:09malpractice that's been happening at our government
- 32:12agencies for decades and decades is all going to be unturned and
- 32:17uncovered. And all of the cuts will be in
- 32:20place. And our country will have a
- 32:22surplus two years into Trump if everything goes according to
- 32:29plan, which is very hard to do. But hopefully, Lord willing,
- 32:36everything goes according to plan for President Trump.
- 32:39I'd really like to see that. The best news was definitely GM
- 32:47locking up that 4 billion for America.
- 32:51That was huge. And I like what Jack Posobik
- 32:55said. You need to start looking at
- 32:57cheap foreign labor as scab labor.
- 33:00He's right. But the Judicial Watch in some
- 33:05organizations like the MSNBC has started to turn against the FBI.
- 33:15And the FBI is fighting back a little bit here because Kesh
- 33:19Patel saying, hey, I'm suing this columnist at the MSNBC for
- 33:25saying I was going around on these nightclub trips and
- 33:27partying and doing all of this. I wasn't doing that.
- 33:31There's no actual proof of me doing that.
- 33:34And this guy's a news reporter held to a high standard as a
- 33:37real journalist. He's not a a sole proprietor.
- 33:43He's just a, he's a real journalist employed by a news
- 33:46company. He went on on a whim and now
- 33:51he's being sued over. But I respect Tom Fitton, A
- 33:54Judicial Watch who's raising the question today.
- 34:00Are FB is Patel and Bongino hostages of the deep state?
- 34:05And let me be clear, I agree with Tom Fitton in Judicial
- 34:11Watch with the sentiment that the FBI should be abolished 100%
- 34:18entirely. And then the CIA absolutely,
- 34:22databases absolutely crushed. What are the, what did Hillary
- 34:28Clinton do? The acid wipe with the with the
- 34:30laptop and all the files in the emails?
- 34:34Yeah, boom, acid wipe it done. That's what I believe should
- 34:39happen if you ask my opinion. And I think that would be done
- 34:44by Congress. I think Congress should get in
- 34:46and pass a law simply saying we're going to wipe these files
- 34:51from the CIA, we're going to get rid of this FBI nonsense because
- 34:56none of it is coming out to the public in a way that is telling
- 35:02us anything. And I think that it's for
- 35:07humanity's best interest to move on from the FBI and the CIA and
- 35:13these other secret agencies in the government and public
- 35:17business. Public officials should be doing
- 35:24business in the public just like President Trump does.
- 35:27If it's good for President Trump, why is it not good for
- 35:30me? Why is it not good for you?
- 35:33That's the question you need to ask.
- 35:37And I respect law enforcement. Again, my favorite branch of law
- 35:41enforcement is ICE, because originally their mission was
- 35:48going after child predators. And then we had Obama get in
- 35:53there and mess with it and mess with ICE.
- 35:56And then we had Biden get in there and screw up Ice's mission
- 36:01when Trump had got it back on track from where George Bush had
- 36:06it. And originally it was to protect
- 36:09people online, kids online. That's what ICE was doing.
- 36:12They were protecting the youth. They were protecting people like
- 36:16me when I was young. It protected me.
- 36:18That's what ICE did. It protected people's kids.
- 36:22And I don't understand the backlash against ICE because
- 36:26they've been given a different assignment and their assignment
- 36:30has been broadened because they were taking away this power from
- 36:35them to go after and get these child predators.
- 36:38And they gave it to the FBI and it did not get better with the
- 36:42FBI. The numbers went down, sadly.
- 36:47But the good thing is a huge operation just took place with
- 36:52the FBI, which I'm giving them credit and saying great job.
- 36:57You did do a good job along with the rest of law enforcement in
- 37:02Texas with a huge operation to take down over 100 child
- 37:09predators online. This was a huge, monumental
- 37:13achievement for law enforcement. Operation Sotoraya Shield was
- 37:20led by the FBI Dallas Division and involved over 70 federal,
- 37:26state and local agencies, including the National Center
- 37:31for Missing and Exploited Children.
- 37:35The operation span multiple counties and focused on
- 37:39identifying and apprehending offenders engaged in the
- 37:44production, distribution and possession of child sexual abuse
- 37:49material. This led to the arrest of 244
- 37:57suspects in the rescue of 109 children.
- 38:04This operation involved the seizure of 1130 digital devices
- 38:12and over 213 terabytes of digital evidence.
- 38:19So this was a huge victory for law enforcement and another
- 38:24reminder why we need these type of operations.
- 38:29Where before this would have been something ICE was doing,
- 38:33but now their objectives have changed.
- 38:37The FBI needs to be flipped into ICE and the CIA need to be
- 38:43flipped into ICE as well. And this will help strengthen
- 38:48ICE on this, will help boost their numbers instantly.
- 38:53And on top of that, it will give them the ability to bypass all
- 38:57of the training and the expenses that go along with training new
- 39:02recruits. And you can instantly plug and
- 39:06play the FBI agents into the ice rolls.
- 39:10And they will fill out from there.
- 39:13And whatever positions are full, let's say they're full, they
- 39:18they can't take any more right down the Border Patrol.
- 39:22That would be an ideal situation to help law enforcement and
- 39:27strengthen law enforcement where it needs to be strengthened at.
- 39:31Almost 400 people have been arrested during those LA riots,
- 39:37which again, as I continue to say, we are not isolated.
- 39:41We know on the weekends all throughout the summer, these bad
- 39:45actors are going to rise up, wake up and go cause problems,
- 39:51chaos, damage and destruction. And that's why we need law
- 39:55enforcement to put a kibosh on it.
- 40:00So we got four former Biden aides to testify.
- 40:03We have 5 Biden senior officials to testify.
- 40:09Something is in the water, folks.
- 40:13I can smell it. Something's going on.
- 40:17So if they can close in on who was using this auto pen, then we
- 40:23have something. But they have to figure out who
- 40:26when. And on what exact orders was
- 40:30this auto pin used and who ordered it by who?
- 40:36Who did the directing of using this auto PIN?
- 40:41Someone said it's Elizabeth Warren.
- 40:44I doubt that. Someone said it's Jill Biden.
- 40:48Possibly. Someone said, oh, it's Obama.
- 40:50He has Obama on the phone. We have all these conspiracies.
- 40:53We don't know. We need to know.
- 40:55We need the answers. Hopefully we get some answers
- 40:59today when the governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker, along
- 41:03with the governor of Minnesota, Tim Waltz, and New York's
- 41:08Governor Kathy Hochul, got to go jump up there on the stand and
- 41:13testify in front of the oversight committee in Congress.
- 41:17Pritzker's got the toughest one because he's got to defend the
- 41:20Safety Act. There's a judge, Judge
- 41:23Cunningham, out of the Kankakee court says this is
- 41:28unconstitutional. Then they try to put the
- 41:30pressure on the judge. So I don't know what's going to
- 41:34happen with this because in my opinion, that Safety Act has
- 41:37been keeping violent criminals out of jail and allowing them
- 41:44right back on the street to reoffend.
- 41:46And it's pretty much put the police in a position, but they
- 41:49don't want to arrest anybody. And I drive out, I drive around
- 41:54in Illinois and I don't see many cops, folks.
- 41:59We don't even have Police Department in my area.
- 42:03You'd be waiting on county to show up and county stuff.
- 42:07You don't want them showing up. That's the point.
- 42:12But you would still be waiting, folks.
- 42:14You would be waiting would take time depending on what
- 42:19emergencies they are responding to already.
- 42:23But on a brighter note, a lighter note, the GOP in the
- 42:27House is making some big moves. Nancy Mace has introduced
- 42:34legislation that will pull funding from sanctuary cities
- 42:42like LA who defy federal law like Chicago.
- 42:51I think it's a great idea to pass this legislation.
- 42:54Get this into law. Nancy Mace, you are a hero.
- 42:59Keep fighting the good fight. I like to see that.
- 43:05They did pass the bill to prohibit non citizens from
- 43:09voting in DC. There's been good movement, very
- 43:13good movement. They had a congressional
- 43:14baseball game. They passed 2 procedural bills
- 43:21leading up to that and I do believe that the Congress is
- 43:24going to go on a blitz for passing bills pretty soon here.
- 43:31And I think this big beautiful bill's been holding it up.
- 43:34But I was very happy to see Senator Thune reel everybody in
- 43:40and say looky here. There is no July 4th recess for
- 43:47the Senate if we don't pass this big beautiful bill and he will
- 43:52call everybody in from recess to pass this big, beautiful bill.
- 43:57Now that is amazing. That is exactly what needs to
- 44:00happen right now. So I'm very excited.
- 44:05I'm intrigued that he said that and to see how everybody kind of
- 44:11responds knowing he is the chair of the Senate.
- 44:16Now Senator Holly is launching A probe into the LA riots.
- 44:23We know Texas Governor Abbott had no problem deploying the
- 44:27National Guard to San Antonio. There's 18 Democrat states that
- 44:34don't like the White House deploying Marines and the
- 44:37National Guard. But there's 26 AGS, 26 states
- 44:46that love this idea. And even in Massachusetts and
- 44:54places like Texas, these governors aren't going to have a
- 45:00problem laying down the law and making sure things don't get out
- 45:05of hand like they will in Atlanta, like they will in
- 45:08Chicago because they have leadership that's failing fast.
- 45:13And California is the worst culprit of disobeying federal
- 45:17law besides Illinois. We have here a report that says
- 45:22California jails ignored over 13,000 ICE detainers.
- 45:30So yes, Senator Hawley again is right, double right.
- 45:36Do the federal minimum wage to $15.00 an hour and let
- 45:39California know you're going to lose a lot of money very fast.
- 45:45And it's already being pulled very fast.
- 45:47And we don't care about how much LA does for the economy or what
- 45:52they pay in taxes. Because we have the tariffs
- 45:54rolling now, baby. And we've seen that the tariffs
- 45:58have just put a massive dent in the national debt.
- 46:03And our treasury is going up. It's on the move.
- 46:09Scott Basent, the trade secretary, locked in a deal with
- 46:12China. It's going to pause all the
- 46:15problems for six months with China.
- 46:18But it gives us time to allow Congress to focus on the America
- 46:25First agenda. We know our enemies are right
- 46:29off the shores. We know they are.
- 46:33We know who our enemies are. Now we see FEMA winding down.
- 46:40President Trump says after hurricane season is over, FEMA
- 46:45is over, it's going to be on the states to take care of natural
- 46:49disasters. Instead of saying, oh, natural
- 46:52disaster federal government, I need, I need tax dollars.
- 46:56I need money now that's coming to an end.
- 46:59It's up to the states to fix the problem.
- 47:02And I agree 100% in credit to the West Virginia governor who
- 47:08got up there and said, California, those riots show
- 47:12failed leadership from your mayor, your governor and your
- 47:17attorney general. Failed leadership across the
- 47:20board. We can go up and down.
- 47:23So we know that our enemies plot on us every day.
- 47:29But we have a president that is one step ahead, 2 steps ahead,
- 47:34and is not slowing down. And we know that RFK Junior has
- 47:40just named 8 vaccine panel replacements.
- 47:44So I'm very happy to see that as well.
- 47:47President Trump is gearing up to send prisoners to Guantanamo
- 47:52Bay. He's gearing up to send
- 47:55prisoners to Alcatraz very soon. These things take time, but they
- 48:00will happen. What we need is the rest of the
- 48:06country to get on board with ICE, clear out these jobs, and
- 48:11if they have to close down because they don't have illegal
- 48:14workers, then they need to close down now, today, and send these
- 48:19people home with dignity instead of having ICE wait in the
- 48:22parking lots, which we have heard that that's not true, but
- 48:28I don't care if it is true. That has nothing to do with
- 48:31anything to me. I don't care about that.
- 48:34If you're illegal, you shouldn't be here.
- 48:36So it doesn't matter to me if you're at work or at a doctor's
- 48:38appointment. It means nothing to me.
- 48:42If you're here illegally, time for you to go.
- 48:44If your family's illegal, if they don't have papers,
- 48:46documents to prove that they're citizens, time for them to go.
- 48:50If you got a friend, buddy next door, he's illegal.
- 48:54Bye, bye. And it's time for some houses to
- 48:57go back up on the market that belong to or will belong to
- 49:01American citizens, people that did it the right way.
- 49:06Oh, look at that. Our country is turning around
- 49:10and I'm happy about it. I'm not ashamed.
- 49:13I'm unapologetic about it. RFK Junior's calling out the
- 49:17governor's, The ones that won't ask for the retainer to
- 49:22eliminate the sugary drinks from SNAP.
- 49:25Honestly, my opinion, don't care, don't really care, but I'm
- 49:29glad he's making an issue about it.
- 49:32The more they push the blue state governors, the better.
- 49:38Secretary Noam, like I said, she's warning of a nuclear
- 49:41Holocaust. Let's kind of walk back how this
- 49:43started. First I got some intelligence
- 49:48here and I'll say where I got it from.
- 49:50On Twitter, there's an account called Election Wiz at Election
- 49:56Wiz, short for Election Wizard, and he posted something, some
- 50:01good Intel. I liked it.
- 50:02I was like, this is good. It says there is a small little
- 50:07coalition of senators that spoke with the president respectfully.
- 50:13Now this is again, this is this was very respectfully done.
- 50:15This wasn't like they ambushed anybody.
- 50:18They respectfully talked to the president, said hey, this
- 50:23situation and I ran, and the tensions between Iran and Israel
- 50:30are serious. They're getting worse.
- 50:33Here's the bottom line. An influential group of GOP
- 50:37Hawks has initiated A lobbying campaign urging President Trump
- 50:43to abandon his administration's pursuit of a peaceful nuclear
- 50:49deal with Iran and to support an Israeli attack on Tehran,
- 50:54reports Politico. OK, so it came from political
- 50:58election wizard tweeted that out.
- 51:00Now here's where it gets sticky, right?
- 51:04Because Secretary Noam comes out and says, look, the whole world
- 51:09is at risk for nuclear Holocaust.
- 51:11And I'm like, whoa, wait a minute, what's going on here?
- 51:15So then we see kind of the next part of this that kind of rolled
- 51:20into place. And I'm I've been following the
- 51:23story carefully and I need to see facts.
- 51:28You know, I can't be concerning myself with fiction.
- 51:32So when I seen that President Trump is telling people to leave
- 51:42in the Middle East that are non essential, that shows me that he
- 51:48understands that there is something afoot here.
- 51:52And we know that Israel is resettling Gaza in the West
- 51:58Bank. And President Trump has
- 52:01reaffirmed his commitment to support Israel.
- 52:05The White House has come out and supported Israel.
- 52:09And the ambassador to Israel, who was a former governor
- 52:14himself, Michael Huckabee of Arkansas, he said that the White
- 52:21House and America's interest is not in a Palestinian state and
- 52:27we have no interest in a Palestinian state.
- 52:29We support Israel and the right for Israel to defend themselves.
- 52:36And that's exactly what it boils down to, folks.
- 52:39But the country is on high alert and God bless you all.
- 52:44One thing I am not worried about is Iran, but I do understand the
- 52:48threat and it is a serious one from Iran.
- 52:53So we must understand right now, today, we have to be ready to
- 52:58put differences aside and support our contrary.
- 53:01It supported our people and our future.
- 53:06And no matter what, we must support our president, President
- 53:10Trump. It's very important now because
- 53:14we don't know what the future holds, but I'm hoping it's very
- 53:18positive. I have a few more headlines to
- 53:22share with you before I wrap up tonight's program.
- 53:26And again, I hope you learned something from tonight's
- 53:28program. Hope you had some laughs, got
- 53:31some enjoyment out of this. We know in Ventura County in
- 53:37California, 49,342 inactive and ineligible voters were removed
- 53:46from the voter rolls, which narrows the Democrat margins to
- 53:54the point where the Republicans can flip the state in 2026 red
- 53:59because that is the hotbed county for politics in
- 54:05California. The Genius Act has cleared
- 54:09another hurdle, so that will be making its way to the
- 54:13President's desk after one more round of voting.
- 54:17That will be great to see. Regulation is good for crypto as
- 54:23long as it doesn't deconstruct how crypto currencies are made
- 54:30or how crypto currencies are sold, bought, exchanged, and
- 54:37what have you. The Cent Treasury Secretary says
- 54:41stable coins could lock in the dollar dominance.
- 54:45So let's hope that's true as the Rio reset gets closer and closer
- 54:51as these other countries and the BRIC nations try to move away
- 54:56from the US dollar as the Petro dollar of the world.
- 55:01Pope Leo is said to have his big Chicago day.
- 55:06He's a White Sox fan, but his Big Bash, his Chicago party is
- 55:12going to happen on the same day of the 250th anniversary of our
- 55:17military. And not only that, President
- 55:20Trump's birthday, not only that, Flag Day.
- 55:24Wow, what a doozy. Harvey Weinstein was convicted
- 55:30of sexual assault in his New York retrial that they were
- 55:34pushing so hard to do 1 charge was thrown out.
- 55:38Another charge will move forward.
- 55:42There is no mistrial in the Diddy trial.
- 55:45They were looking to get a mistrial here but no mistrial
- 55:49for the Diddy case and the prosecution is coming to a close
- 55:55pretty soon. His one of his other girlfriends
- 55:59testified and said he was bisexual and he was afraid to
- 56:07have sex with men. So it just gets weirder and
- 56:10stranger by the minute. Everything that's happened in
- 56:13this case has just been stomach turning weird, cringy, makes me
- 56:18not want to eat. So I haven't really watched much
- 56:21of this trial. I've pretty much read everything
- 56:25that I need to see about this one.
- 56:28Call of Duty Black Ops 7 will come out on the older consoles,
- 56:34the Xbox One. How about that?
- 56:37That's pretty cool. So that's interesting, you have
- 56:41the Xbox One X out, but they're going to put this on the Xbox
- 56:45One. That just shows the power that
- 56:48the Xbox One had. Really nice.
- 56:52We know Tony Hawk 3 and 4 are about to drop.
- 56:56Rainbow 6X is out. You can play that as well on the
- 57:02PC if you have Steam. And they did throw Borderlands 3
- 57:08on the Game Pass for Xbox, so that was pretty neat.
- 57:14President Trump and RFK Junior were at the Kennedy Center
- 57:19tonight where they watched the less Miserables play.
- 57:24South Korea is stopping their propaganda news channel along
- 57:28the border. That will be a move to help ease
- 57:33tensions with North Korea. I heard Kim Jong Un in North
- 57:37Korea really want to speak to President Trump.
- 57:41There's starting to be some movements and relations starting
- 57:44to open up now that peace with China looks to be imminent for
- 57:50now in the near future. But we do have a lot of serious
- 57:55issues. We still have Ukraine and Russia
- 57:57going at it. We still want the war with
- 58:01Israel and Hamas to be over, but Hamas has to be completely
- 58:05defeated. And we also want Iran to give up
- 58:13on having a nuclear weapon. These are all very important
- 58:16things, but it's important now for countries to start coming
- 58:21forward and making trade deals with America.
- 58:24The goodness is here, the goodness is happening.
- 58:27It's all around us. But it's up to us to bring it
- 58:30out right now, Ladies and gentlemen, just like the hands
- 58:36of time. I'm turning it over to you.
- 58:37Goodnight and God bless Psalm 37 for KJV.
- 58:43Delight thyself also in the Lord, and he will give thee the
- 58:47desires of thine heart in Jesus name, Amen.
