  Speaker 1: the best audience anywhere. We've got a lot to get
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: to today. The president of the United States rumbling with
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Senate Republicans of all people. That's right. He went and
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: paid them a visit yesterday. And it became lively in
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: the words of one Republican senator. Yes, lively. That's one
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: way to put it. We'll get into the shouting match
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: that took place yesterday. The president's fight for the Save
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: America Act and his demand for some answers as to
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: why Republicans were trying to undermine him as he tries
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: to bring peace to the Middle East. Yes, and we
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: have updates on that subject, too, and so much more.

• 1:03
  Speaker 1: to talk about today. We'll get right into it. First,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I want to thank one of our great sponsors, BrickHouse Nutrition,

  Speaker 1: for supporting the program. We love BrickHouse, don't we? BrickHouse
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: has a great product. It's called Lean, and here's why
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: I want you to know about it. Everybody's talking about
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: the weight loss injections. They're looking for dramatic results. But
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: those injections, they work very simply by lowering your blood
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: sugar and reducing your appetite. What if you want to
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: do this? What if you want to lose the weight
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: and you don't want the painful weekly injections, especially when
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: you hear about some of those side effects? Well, this
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: is exactly why doctors at Brickhouse Nutrition created a weight
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: loss supplement called Lean. And the results are remarkable. The
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: studied ingredients in Lean have been shown to help lower
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: your blood sugar, help you burn fat by converting it
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: into energy, and help you curb your appetite and your
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: cravings so you're less hungry. But listen, Lean by Brickhouse Nutrition,
• 1:51

• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Boom.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the president of the United States did make his
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: way over to the Senate. And well, it got interesting really,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: really quickly yesterday. In fact, the reports came out that
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: there was a shouting match in particular between bitter Bill
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Cassidy of Louisiana, the recently fired Republican senator, and the
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: president of the United States. And what were they shouting over? Well,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: it turns out it was Iran. The president of the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: United States has been trying to negotiate a peace here.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: And he says the problem that he's run into is
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: that these Republican senators keep trying to work against him.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: They were passing resolutions this week declaring him to be
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: doing something that he shouldn't be allowed to do. You
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: can't do this. And the president says the Iranians have
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: been reaching out. They're like, what is this? What are
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: the what's the Senate up to? What does this mean?
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Does it mean the deal is off? How does this
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: work exactly? And the president said this has been a
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: complete disaster. by these guys. Listen to the president. Here's
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: cut to the president yesterday describing what Republican senators have
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: done to him. Watch.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Right in the middle of one of the key things,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: which we're going to get anyway, we got, we have
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: breaking news. The Senate has voted that they'd like Trump
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: to stop the war. So Iran sees that and they go,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: what's that all about? Now, you know it's meaningless, right?
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: But I had lunch with them. We had four Republican
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: senators and all Democrats. You know, Democrats, they want to
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: lose the war because they're stupid. That's why we call
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: them Democrats, you know. I no longer use the E.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: I've changed the E into a U. We call them Democrats.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: They're dumb.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Their policy is so bad. That's why they are opposed
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: to the Save America Act. Because they don't want voter ID.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: They don't want proof of citizenship.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: You know why?
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Because they have to cheat.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Their policy is so bad that if they don't cheat,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: they wouldn't win an election. They're phenomenal cheaters.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: And they stick together.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: But you know, the people, the Democrat people, are 87%
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: in favor of the Save America Act.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: You see the weave, a little bit of the Save
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: America Act baked in there. But at the top, he's
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: talking about how these Republican senators are trying to throw
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: a wrench into his process here of just like getting
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: a peace deal. Come on now, knock it off. So
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the reporting was that at one point, Bill Cassidy started
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: calling President Trump brother and interrupting the President of the
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: United States as he's trying to talk. He stopped calling
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: him Mr. President. It became all very disrespectful, apparently, behind
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: closed doors. And After the meeting, reporters were chasing Bill
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Cassidy down and asked him, what happened? What happened in there?
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: And Bill Cassidy started whining, goes, I'm not going to
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: be bullied. Here he is.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: Watch.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: The president was wondering why people would vote for the
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: War Powers Act. I asked him if that would be
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: a rhetorical question, a real question.
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: He said real.
• 5:36
  Speaker 7: And so to begin to speak, the president said, Didn't
• 5:42
  Speaker 7: want to hear my question.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: Interrupted me.
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: I didn't care to be interrupted.
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: I felt like I was trying to get answers for
• 5:48
  Speaker 7: the American people.
• 5:49
  Speaker 8: And I'm not going to be bullied when I'm trying
• 5:51
  Speaker 8: to get answers for the American people.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: And so it escalated from there.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: At some point, it de-escalated.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: We're told the president called you a lunatic?
• 6:01
  Speaker 8: Can I imagine that the president called me things that
• 6:03
  Speaker 8: would be said on a playground?
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I can imagine that.
• 6:07
  Speaker 8: Does it bother you that he went after Leader McConnell,
• 6:09
  Speaker 8: who wasn't here to defend himself?
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: If there's somebody I know who's got thick skin, it's
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: Leader McConnell.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, do you believe that he's not the leader?
• 6:20
  Speaker 7: I'll let the president's actions speak for themselves.
• 6:26
  Speaker 9: Did you refer to him? We're hearing reports that you
• 6:28
  Speaker 9: referred to him as brother at one point, and there
• 6:30
  Speaker 9: was that sort of contentious.
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: I don't think that's really important to this story.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: It's not important that I was disrespectful to the president.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure I know the answer to this,
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: but you.
• 6:38
  Speaker 10: Don't regret at all in the vote for the war
• 6:40
  Speaker 10: powers resolution yesterday. You know, as I said, and I've
• 6:44
  Speaker 10: said before, that once I start getting answers, I can
• 6:47
  Speaker 10: change my vote.
• 6:49
  Speaker 8: But I feel like there's answers that need to be given,
• 6:51
  Speaker 8: and they've not been given.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: And that's important to the Senate. And it's important to
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: the Senate. It's important to the American people.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: All right, so he's very petulant, very whiny, very disruptive.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Of course, there's a reason we call him Bitter Bill Cassidy.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: The guys have said that the voters in Louisiana just
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: fired his ass. And they did that because he wasn't
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: fulfilling the agenda that they sent him to Washington to
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: fulfill in the first place. So they're looking for something new.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: And President Trump You know, he endorsed against Bill Cassidy
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: and Cassidy has been very bitter about that ever since. So,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: of course, he's voting in every way to try and
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: hamstring the president's agenda. That's been the pattern here. Oh,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: I need you need I need more information before I
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: can support the president's agenda. How about they just voted
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: you out of office? How much more information do you
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: possibly need? The voters said that you're not doing the
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: job the right way. That's the information you should pay
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: attention to. That was Bill Cassidy yesterday. And I'll get
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: to kind of where that story went in a moment,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: because it was actually very interesting. The president scored some
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: interesting victories yesterday on all of this, because actually, we'll
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: talk about it right now. Basically, what happened was Bill
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Cassidy was, of course, voting to try and disrupt the
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: president's Iran plans. And so were people like Rand Paul.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: This all changed yesterday. J.D. Vance apparently hosted a bunch
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: of Republican senators for dinner yesterday to try and walk
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: them through in more detail what's going on as they
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: try and negotiate a deal with the Iranians. And that
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: had some big effect, apparently, on a bunch of these senators.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: And President Trump himself was working the phones yesterday, talking
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: to these guys. They invited Bill Cassidy over to the
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: White House. They gave him a briefing at the White
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: House on everything. So clearly, they're pulling out all the
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: stops to get these guys to settle the hell down.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: You know, they had to spoon feed him a bit,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: but it worked. And here's David Sivak writing about this.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: He is with the Washington Examiner these days. He said,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: some de-escalation of tensions tonight. Republican senators spoke with Trump
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: over the phone. After beating back a fresh Iran war
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: powers vote, John Barrasso whipped both Bill Cassidy and Rand
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Paul to change their yes votes. Cassidy also was swayed
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: by a White House briefing on the Iran conflict. In
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: addition to Barrasso, Thune, Graham, and Moreno were also on
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: the call with Trump. Hey, pay attention to that. John
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Barrasso is actually whipping things. Oh, it can be done.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Remember we were talking about John Barrasso yesterday, the majority
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: whip in the Senate. He's supposed to be in a
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: world where he's like heeding the Trump agenda. He'd be
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: whipping both the Save America Act and the means to
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: actually pass it. And here's Barrasso finally doing some whipping.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: He got Bill Cassidy and Rand Paul to change their
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: yes votes yesterday. So now the Republicans in the Senate
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: are officially on President Trump's side on the record when
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: it comes to letting him have this. to negotiate all
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: of this. Rand Paul said yesterday, last night, that he
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: flipped his vote and he said he's doing it because
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: he wants to give the president the space to navigate
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: towards peace. He said, my opinion on the debate over
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: war and executive power hasn't changed. And I voted that
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: way several times. But since hostilities seem to be over
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: and the president asked me to give consideration to his
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: negotiating position, I will do so. My vote of present,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: that's what his vote is now, is a way to
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: give the president more space and leverage to negotiate a
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: lasting peace. Okay, good. We'll take it. This stupidity should
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: have never taken place in the first place. This vote
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: should have never been put forward. And yet it was.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Bill Cassidy flipped his vote. He announced that last night.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: And they said, Manu Raju here with the summary, after
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: sparring intense confrontation with Trump over Iran today, Bill Cassidy
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: got a briefing at the White House and then he
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: flipped his vote. So President Trump gets results here. President
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Trump goes in. He grabs these guys by the shirt collar,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: shakes them awake. And then Bill Cassidy finally comes around,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: comes to his senses and votes on behalf of the
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: president's agenda here. It took a lot, but we got there.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: The president's very grateful, by the way. He posted to
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Truth Social about all this. He said, wow, the Senate
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: just changed its vote on Iran from 50 to 48.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Against to 50 to 47 for Rand Paul and Bill
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Cassidy changing. Thank you to leader John Thune, Lindsey Graham,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Bernie Moreno, and all. This vote puts Iran on notice.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: President DJT. So it shouldn't have had to take that.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: It shouldn't have had to take the president of the
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: United States, the vice president of the United States, Steve Wyckoff.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: All of their valuable time consumed by trying to spoon
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: feed Bill Cassidy to get him to change his vote
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: and Rand Paul to get him to go to a
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: present vote. It's too much. It's like, why are we
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: dealing with these babies? Why can't we just have a
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: functioning Senate that's carrying out the Trump agenda? Now, back
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: to that lunch, that lunch between these senators and President Trump.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: We've got more here in terms of what actually happened
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: behind closed doors. Back to David Sivek at the Examiner.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: He had some good posts on this yesterday. He said
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: a ton of newsy details. First off, Trump dominated the meeting.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Not surprised by that at all. I'm told Republican senators
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: were barely able to get a word in edgewise. Thune
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: didn't speak. Yeah, what did I tell you was going
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: to happen? John Thune would disappear into the background. The
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: guy was hovering by the punch bowl, probably standing by
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: the exit, hoping to slip out at the first opportunity.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: He didn't participate yesterday. There was the fight with Cassidy,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: with one source telling David that the two men yelled
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: at each other to sit down. Trump also fumed over
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: his two impeachments, and much of the meeting was an
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: airing of grievances. Yeah, some of these idiots were involved
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: in pushing on the impeachment conviction and the president wasn't
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: happy with that. Trump brought up the Republicans who voted
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: to convict him, of course, his perfect call with Vladimir
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Zelensky and the 87 indictments against him. The SAVE Act
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: did come up, David says, but he writes that it
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: was only at the beginning when Rick Scott opened the
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: meeting and at the end when Trump delivered a parting message.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: On the Save America Act, Trump warned that voters wouldn't
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: show up if the bill doesn't pass. The president's right
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: about this. This is one of those things that you
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: and I have talked about quite a bit. And by
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: the way, since we're on the Save America Act, of course,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: we should gavel in. The Save America Act is not
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: only important, it's most important to establish that we have
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: credible elections in the United States of America and to
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: prevent fraudsters from even attempting to interfere in them. That's
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: the most important reason. But the second order effect, and
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: a very important one, is the extent to which that
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the base, the Trump base, has enthusiasm to send back
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: up to Washington to support him. Because while you and
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: I are very locked in on politics, obviously, you're watching
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: a show where we talk about these big political questions
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: every day. You and I are the kinds of people
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: who are going to go on a routine basis to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: vote in our local and state and federal elections. You
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: and I are the kinds of people who are going
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: to be trying to browbeat all of our neighbors and
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: actually showing up to vote. But we can work our
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: asses off. And it's not going to make the difference
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: necessary to win these elections if these Republicans don't have
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: a good enough case to vote for. Like, there are
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: going to be voters out there, people who aren't watching
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: this program, people who decide, you know what, I'm just
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: going to sit out the election because these guys aren't
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: even passing the bare minimum for me. Why am I
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: going to participate at all? There are going to be
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: people who sit it out. Now, they shouldn't, even with
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: the crappy leadership in the United States Senate, we should
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: stop the left at every turn on every battlefield. But
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the reality is very practical here. From 30,000 feet, the
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: president's right. You don't pass the Save America Act. You
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: are going to depress some percentage of the voter turnout.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: And that is going to hurt us in the midterms.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: You morons. Why do I have to explain this to you?
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Why does the president of the United States have to
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: go into that lunchroom and explain this? to them. He
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: shouldn't have to. Now, the president was gracious as he
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: walked out of the meeting. He summarized the meeting for
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: the press. After all the shouting, after apparently calling Bill
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Cassidy a lunatic, after Bill Cassidy was yelling, brother, as
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: these guys were telling each other to sit down, as
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: John Thune was disappearing into the background, hoping he could
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: fade into the wallpaper, President Trump steps out and he says,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: it was a great meeting. Cut three. Watch this.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: I think we had a really great meeting, and we're
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: very proud of the party.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: We like our leader.
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: We like everybody really in the room. I don't like
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: a few people, but that's okay. I think you know
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: who they are. But I'll give you that information someday.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: But for the most part, we have a really well-unified party.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: And I said it very strongly, we have the hottest
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: country anywhere in the world. We're the most powerful, we're
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: the smartest, we're the most respected. Two years ago, we
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: were a laughingstock all over the world. We had a
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: terrible group of people representing us. Every leader, I just
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: left G7, every leader, and we had a lot of
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: people in addition to G7, as you know, came. Everyone
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: said what we've done in a year and a half
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: is a miracle. We have the hottest country in the world,
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: and we want to keep it that way. We have
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: more factories being built right now than we have at
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: any point at any time in the history of our country.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: And all of those factories are opening up soon. It's
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: all jobs. And our job numbers are incredible anyway.
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: I see that oil.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: just broke the $ 70 number.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Who would have thought that was.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: Going to happen? And that's during a war.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: And Iran is being very nice.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: They're agreeing to everything that I want.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: And they have to.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Otherwise, we just go back and do what we have
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: to do.
• 16:54
  Speaker 8: Thank you very much.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Now, I don't know about you. A lot of people
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: are reading John Thune's body language in that video clip.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: And for those of you listening on the audio podcast,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: it's interesting because Thune is, it looks like he's just
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: trying to keep his face like stoned Like he doesn't
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: even want to be there, but he's got to be there.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: It's kind of a weird, his posture is just super weird.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: You feel like that, Chad? It's a weird look to
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: his presentation. And so people understand who's standing next to
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: the president. There's four senators standing next to him. To
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: his right shoulder, he's got Mike Lee and Rick Scott.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: These two are great because Mike Lee is pushing the
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Save America Act. He authored the Save America Act, puts
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: it up in the Senate and fights like crazy for it.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: He's still fighting for it as we speak. You got
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Rick Scott standing there. Rick Scott's great. Rick Scott was.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: The guy who invited President Trump to this meeting without
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: John Thune's knowledge and just told him after. He's like, hey,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: by the way, the president's showing up at our meeting.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: John Thune's like, what? Are you serious? Yeah, he's going
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: to be showing up. He's got something to say. All right,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: that's great. And then to the president's left, you've got
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: the majority whip, John Barrasso, and you've got John Thune.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: And Barrasso, you know, finally came through yesterday, as I
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: just told you, for these war powers votes. But where
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: is he on passing the Save America Act? Like, what
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: effort has this guy demonstrated whatsoever? So it's kind of
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: an interesting split. You've got the people who are definitely
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: much more in line with Trump voters to his right,
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: and then to his left, perhaps poetically and appropriately so,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: you've got the establishment, which isn't fighting that hard for
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: you and has to be drag kicking and screaming into
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: doing it. Interesting. Very interesting. Now, Tommy Tuberville is a
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: great Republican senator. He's He's headed out because he'll be
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: the next governor of Alabama, which will be cool. But
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Tommy Tuberville went on television yesterday and revealed what happened
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: inside of this meeting. And he said, yes, we did
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: talk quite a bit about the Save America Act. Cut four.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Watch this.
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: Save America Act is the number one thing that people want.
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: They want fair elections. We just saw the nonsense in California.
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: And we're seeing the nonsense of these communists taking over
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: our country. And they're not socialists. They are communists. And
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: so President Trump was exactly right. I'm proud of what
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: he did today. He spoke up. He called people out.
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: They had a very good conversation back and forth. But
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: people need to be called out if you're not going
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: to vote for this country. My God, folks, we are
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: in trouble. And President Trump needs help, and we're not
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: giving him 100 percent the help that he needs.
• 19:22
  Speaker 11: So you said you talked about the number of ways
• 19:25
  Speaker 11: that you could pass the SAVE Act. Can you elaborate
• 19:27
  Speaker 11: on that? Is there any movement that would sort of
• 19:31
  Speaker 11: take some pieces out of it that might get the
• 19:34
  Speaker 11: thrust of voter ID across the finish line, Senator?
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a no-go. He's not going to take anything
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: out of the SAVE America Act. What's in there needs
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: to stay. We just talked about the avenues of the
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: talking filibuster. or voting out the regular filibuster and voting
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: it in. Because this is— and President Trump's right here. You know, again,
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: I travel the country. If we don't— do something with
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: the filibuster. And we don't get things passed. It'll be
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: the last time we'll have a Republican president or a
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: Republican Senate or a House. That's how fast this country's
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: going down to communism. And we need to stop it.
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: We can stop it. It's—it's—the ball's in our court. President
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: Trump said that. The ball's in your court. You know,
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: I'm here to support you. Let me know if there's
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: anything I can do. But this is what we have
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: to do to save the United States of America from communism.
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: He's exactly right.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: We have a communist insurrection going on in the country
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: right now, and it's consuming even the party that birthed
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: it here in the United States. The Democrats don't know
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: what to do with all these commies who are coming
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: up through their ranks. And in fact, I'm seeing all
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: the political press this week. They're like, oh, the establishment
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Democrats don't know what to do about their communist problem.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: You created this, you morons. You created this monster, and
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: now it's consuming you. And we're not going to let
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: it consume us. We're not. And you watched in New
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: York as you get three commies who win all with,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: you know, Zoran Mamdani's blessing, his endorsement. Oh, yeah, you're
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: my people. Another destined for Congress. They won a Democrat primary,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: which is in New York. That's as good as winning
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: the general election because they're off in November. It's going
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: to be by the time January comes around. We got
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: a couple of communists showing up, more showing up to
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: the to the Congress.
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: Crazy.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: So what are they creating this world that they're creating?
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: They want to create a communist hellhole in the United
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: States that's unaccountable to the voters. Look at the messed
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: up combination we're talking about. They want the commies to
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: have power over you, and they don't want you to
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: have power over them. That's the arrangement. That's why the
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: left is fighting so hard against the Save America Act.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: They don't want to be held accountable to the voter.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: So they're trying to prevent the voter from having secure elections.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: More in a moment. You heard Tommy Tuberville say that
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: the president is not going to compromise on what he
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: wants out of this legislation. In fact, the president's making
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: some very big moves to get it done. Very big moves.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: In fact, yesterday announcing after our program, he said, you
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: know what? There's legislation that you guys just passed. I'm
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: not signing it until you send me the Safe America Act.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: More on how hard in the paint President Trump is
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: going right now ahead on this edition of I want

• 24:16
  Speaker 1: president was cooking the Senate yesterday and they deserve it.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: So here's the president, first and foremost, on whether or
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: not he would ever compromise on the Save America Act.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Watch this, cut five.
• 24:28
  Speaker 9: Hi, this is Dennis.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: Would you be open to a compromise measure that had
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: provisions of the Save Act into a reconsentiation?
• 24:35
  Speaker 9: Not really, no.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: The Save Act should be a compromise. It's voter ID,
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: it's proof of citizenship, and it's also the mail-in ballots.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: We want mail-in ballots for the military if they're away.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: We want them for people that are ill or people
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: that are in some form handicapped or have a hard time,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: or people even that are on vacation. I'm open to that.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: But mail-in ballots, you have to vote, because we have
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: a lot of rigged elections. And then we added in
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: men in women's sports as a no-no. No men in
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: women's sports and no transgender mutilization of our children. These
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: are 99% issues, and we have to do it. We
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: have to protect. Look at what's going on in Los
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Angeles and California. The vote still hasn't been counted. What's it,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: two weeks now? It still hasn't been counted. And I
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: don't know Spencer Pratt, but I watched him, and he
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: was doing really nicely. All of a sudden, he's out.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: And I said he was going to be out because
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: he was doing well. And then a week later, they
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: started saying, oh, he's starting.
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: To lose favor.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: He's starting to lose. I said, they just rigged the election.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: And they were going to do that with Steve Hilton.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: He's a good man.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: And I asked the U.S.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Attorney to go look at their votes. And as soon
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: as I did that, they announced that Steve Hilton would
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: be a finalist. Now, we have rigged elections. Now, in
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: my case, I made it too big to rig. Remember
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: the expression, too big to rig? But we have rigged it.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: We have to have voter ID. If we don't have
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: voter ID and proof of citizenship, but basically it's the
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Save America Act. Everybody wants it. Everybody is it, including Democrats.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: 87% of Democrats want it. Not the leaders, because they
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: want to cheat. Their policy is so bad, they're unelectable.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: You know, it's not even a question of whether or
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: not there was rigging in the L.A. mayoral race. You're
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: aware of this, right? It's not even up for interpretation.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: There was clearly rigging involved in the L.A. mayoral race.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Homeless people on Skid Row, admitted that they were being
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: paid for their votes for Karen Bass in the race.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: It was caught on James O'Keefe's camera, local media, also
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: catching up with these homeless people, asking them about this.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: And they said, yeah, yeah, we were paid to vote
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: for Karen Bass. How much? $ 1, $ 2, $ 3 if you negotiated.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: What?
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: Yes, that actually happened. And of course, not shocking, but
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: definitely appalling that that was going on. It has been
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: going on for a very long time. You know that.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: In Los Angeles, in California, in a Democrat-run corrupt area.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: And so that had some role in depriving Spencer Pratt's
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: ability to show up in the finalist bout coming up
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: in November in Los Angeles. In fact, the federal government
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: is investigating this. FBI agents were just on skid row
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: this past week interviewing homeless people about the fact that
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: they were paid to vote. So that's under federal investigation
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: as we speak, not a close call. And it is
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: yet another reason why you need election protections to try
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: and stop that kind of nonsense in every state in
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: the country. And it can't be just like randomly applied.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: It can't be just, oh, the Republican states are the
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: ones who have election security, but the Democrat states, it's
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: a free for all, who knows, crapshoot. No, that's basically
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: the system we have now. It's a terrible system. We've
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: got to fix it. We've got to fix it. And
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: this brings me to what the president did yesterday. The
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: president is sick of the crap. He's tired of waiting
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: for these guys to get off their asses and do
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: something for us. And so yesterday, the president made a
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: huge announcement on Truth Social. You know, before the president's lunch,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: he was supposed to do a big bill signing event.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: at the Congress. They had even set up like a
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: whole photo area where it was going to be an
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: opportunity for the president to give a speech, the Speaker
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: of the House, I guess, and whoever else wanted to,
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: you know, talk. And then the president would sit down
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: at a big presidential table that they had set up,
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: and he would sign this bipartisan housing legislation into law.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: But the president yesterday decided, you know what? I'm not
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: signing that thing. In fact, I already said earlier this year,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I'm not signing any legislation until I get the Save
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: America Act. Here's what he wrote on Truth Social. Today's
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: housing news conference and signing is hereby canceled until such
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: time as we pass the desperately needed Save America Act,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: which I consider to be a national emergency. Thank you
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: for your attention to this matter, President D.J. That just
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: threw the entire Senate into chaos yesterday. And I love it.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: I absolutely love it. All of the right people are
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: freaking out about this. I'll explain what's going on here
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: in just a moment. And also, we can nerd out
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: about the Constitution.
• 29:40
  Speaker 8: In a second.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: What happens if Congress passes, both houses of Congress pass
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: a bill and then send it off to the president
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: and he doesn't sign it? I'll explain that too. That's
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: all ahead on this edition of Vince. Real quick, I
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: want to thank two of our great sponsors today who
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: do make this show possible and free each day. Ethos,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: we love Ethos. And here's why, you know, being an
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: adult means realizing how many things you are responsible for
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: that nobody really prepares you for. Life insurance, that's one
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: of those things. It's very easy to put off, but
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: when you actually think about it, it really matters. Now,
• 30:12

  Speaker 1: to get some good sun time. Actually, it was Dan
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Bongino who told me that, what do they call it, grounding,
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: where you take your shoes off. Josh, do you do this?
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: You take your shoes off and you just walk around
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: in the grass. You do that? You should try it. Apparently,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: it's some sort of like benefit to like directly connecting

  Speaker 1: with nature and whatever, you know, as the kids say,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: touch grass. And so I was touching some grass yesterday,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: as I do every day, and I'm walking around the
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: yard and I was walking past my fast growing trees.
• 32:12

  Speaker 1: have it. It's going to be great. Five plus, we'll see.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: We'll see what kind of time we're dealing with on Monday. Anyway,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: a little breaking news for you. We've got the president
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: of the United States throwing down, all right? And this
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: is a very interesting tactic. He said, I'm not signing
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: this legislation. Nope, no signature, not until you send me
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act. Now, let me just point out
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: right away one of the elements here that matters. You're
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: probably wondering, or perhaps you already know, but I'll explain
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: for those who don't. What happens if the president doesn't
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: sign legislation into law? Well, This actually has happened quite
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: a bit in American history, especially with the early presidents,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: where they wouldn't sign legislation that was handed over to them.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: In fact, Grover Cleveland, when he was in office, 283 times,
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: he didn't sign the legislation at all. And what happened? Well,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: after 10 days without a presidential signature, it becomes law. Yeah,
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: that's the rule. Article 1, which is the congressional component
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: of the Constitution, Article 1, Section 7 says that if
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: the president does not sign legislation after it's presented to him,
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: then 10 days later, with the exception of Sundays, isn't
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: that interesting? I love how the left's like, well, the
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Constitution doesn't mention God. You know, you bring up the
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Declaration of Independence. Like, oh, we're not talking about that.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: The Constitution. Well, you know, interestingly, the Constitution has an
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: exception for working on Sundays. Why would that be? What
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: would that be about exactly?
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: Libs?
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: What's the point of that other than, you know, maybe
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: acknowledging our creator? Could be. Anyway, the 10 days accepting Sundays.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: So like Chick-fil-A, that particular provision is closed on Sunday.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: And but then then it becomes law. Here's the key, though.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Here's the key. It has to be presented to the president.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: So some of you are are saying, but wait a second,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: this is an empty threat from the president then.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: It has to be presented to him. There's an official
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: way to do this. Now, this housing bill is an
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: HR bill, a House bill. So it has to be
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: presented by the Speaker of the House. They have to
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: send it to him officially. And as far as we
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: are aware, the reporting on this is that hasn't been
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: done yet. So when the bill is finally presented to him,
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: and that's really, that's at Speaker Johnson's discretion. So pay
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: attention to Speaker Johnson's behavior here. When the bill is
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: finally presented to him, then that starts the 10-day clock
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: accepting Sundays. Okay? Does that help? I hope that helped
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: us explain what the hell's going on here. Because it's interesting.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: The Constitution does contemplate a scenario where the president's like,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: I'm not signing that. So that's the question. Lisa says
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: Mike Johnson will cave. That's the thing to watch. Will
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Mike Johnson cave here? Or will he heed the demands
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: of the president of the United States? Now, this move
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: that the president just pulled off is causing a massive freakout. Here,
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: for instance, is one Democrat. He's a Georgia senator, and
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: he was on a network called Ms. Now last night,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and he was lying his eyes off.
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: Watch.
• 36:48
  Speaker 9: One of the things you've worked very hard on is
• 36:49
  Speaker 9: this housing bill that I started the show talking about.
• 36:53
  Speaker 9: And this morning, this all happened in the same day.
• 36:55
  Speaker 9: Sometimes you can't make it up in Washington. Trump just
• 36:58
  Speaker 9: decided not to sign this bill. And instead, he demanded
• 37:01
  Speaker 9: that your Republican colleagues move forward in essentially pushing a
• 37:06
  Speaker 9: voter suppression bill forward. I have my own thoughts. I
• 37:09
  Speaker 9: mentioned some of them.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: What do you think he.
• 37:11
  Speaker 9: Pulled this all today?
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: Let's be very clear about what the president is saying
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: to the American people. The president is saying that he
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: will not sign a bill whose purpose is to make
• 37:22
  Speaker 7: housing affordable unless his allies in Congress pass a voter
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: suppression bill to rig the election. He's saying, I won't
• 37:32
  Speaker 7: even sign a bill that will give economic relief to
• 37:35
  Speaker 7: Americans unless the rules of this election are changed so
• 37:39
  Speaker 7: that he, Donald Trump, cannot be held accountable for all
• 37:43
  Speaker 7: of his misdeeds. Because that's what he really fears most
• 37:47
  Speaker 7: of all, is that when there is a change in
• 37:49
  Speaker 7: the balance of power and when we restore checks and balances,
• 37:53
  Speaker 7: he knows that there will be subpoenas flying. that officials
• 37:57
  Speaker 7: from his administration will be testifying under oath about the
• 38:00
  Speaker 7: full range of misconduct and corruption that we already know
• 38:04
  Speaker 7: has been happening since the moment he was sworn in.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Amazing. Just amazing. So what you just witnessed is projection
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: for Ms. Now's viewer. John Ossoff saying that the president
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: is attempting to rig the election by passing an election
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: integrity law. How sinister. That's how they get you. They
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: pass an election integrity law to rig the election. What
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: a freaking liar. What a liar. And it really gets
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: to show, like, if the left had good critiques of
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act, they'd wield them. But they don't.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: So they lie about it. which is a clear sign
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: of their culpability in destroying America's elections. It's as clear
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: as it gets. If you have to lie about it,
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: you're obviously orchestrating a cover-up for the sins that your
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: party's committing. So the president is saying, no, I'm not
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: signing this, not until we get this thing, not until
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: we get the Save America Act. He's fighting for it. Now,
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Mike Johnson has reacted to this. Mike Johnson, remember I
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: told you a moment ago, it's really, Mike Johnson, we
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: got to keep your eyes on him. What is he
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: up to? Here's Mike Johnson reacting to the president canceling
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: the housing bill signing yesterday. Watch this, cut seven.
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: Truth of the matter, I spoke to the president for
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: 20 minutes before I went in and gave that rousing
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: speech to the House Republicans this morning. I've talked about
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: this a lot. He has expressed the priority and the
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: preference of the Save America Act. We share that. We
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: passed it three times in the House The latest version
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: was passed a few months ago, and it has proof
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: of citizenship to register to vote and showing a photo
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: ID when you show up to vote. Basic issues that
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: 90% of Americans agree. 70% of Democrats think you ought
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: to have a photo ID to vote. And citizenship to
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: vote in an American election is already in the law.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: But we have to enforce it because you've got a
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: few blue states that don't do that. The president believes
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: in election integrity. He talks about it all the time,
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: and we do as well. And act and deed, we
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: have stood for that. We've passed the Save America Act again.
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: The House has. This is very important. That is the
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: top priority because if you do not have safe elections
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: in this grand experiment in self-governance that we have in
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: a constitutional republic, you don't have anything.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: And we've got to ensure it. We have to press
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: for election integrity measures. That's why we've made it a
• 40:13
  Speaker 4: top priority. It has been stuck in the Senate, and
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: here's why. Because no Democrat in the House or Senate
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: will vote for the Save America Act. Those two things
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: I just told you, they vote against that. Every single time.
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: And they will.
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: Why?
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: That's a rhetorical question. You should go ask them the
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: actual question.
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: Are you against proof of citizenship and a photo ID?
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: Why is that? They can't give you a cogent answer.
• 40:36
  Speaker 4: The reason is they do want to allow for cheating
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: and fraud.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: So yeah, he's right. They do want to allow for cheating.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: He's right about the Democrats and their opposition. They're protecting
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: cheating in our elections. What Mike Johnson is excluding in
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: his assessment is the fact that there are establishment Republican
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: senators who don't actually support the Save America Act. They
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: pretend to. They claim that they're co-sponsors and they really
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: want this thing. Holy cow, we really could use this thing.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: But they're only doing that because they're trying to placate
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: you and get you to go away. If they actually
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: supported the Save America Act, they would support the means
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: to actually pass it. And that would be getting rid
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: of the filibuster or using the talking filibuster as a
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: means to get it done. That's it. It's as simple
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: as that. And Mike Johnson is being, I think, far
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: too generous to the Republicans in the Senate right now,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: as he says, well, it's on Democrats. That's why we
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: can't get this thing passed. No, it's also on Republicans.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: It's also on Republicans. And they're the ones who we
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: are closer to being able to shake into their senses,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: although that's proving to be a tough fight. Now, Mike
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Johnson made a claim yesterday that in order to get
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: the Save America Act passed, it needs to be a
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: part of something called Reconciliation 3.0. Remember, reconciliation is a
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: budgetary maneuver. Mike Lee told us earlier this year, it's
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: not even possible to pass the Save America Act this way.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: It's a fool's errand. But Mike Johnson says we can
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: do some budget maneuvers here. Listen to him assess to
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: make this like basically game this out. And then I'll
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: assess what he just said in a moment. Watch cut eight.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: Mike Johnson.
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: He's laser focused on Save America Act, as most common
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: sense Americans are. The only path, I think, to get
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: that done, because you're never going to get seven Democrats
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: to join 53 Republicans in the Senate to do that.
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: They will not do it. Chuck Schumer will never vote
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: for that or release any Democrat to do it. You
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: have to put it on a reconciliation bill. We believe
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: that if you create a grant program that ties it
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: to reconciling the budget and you allow blue states, if
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: they come to their senses and they want to avail
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: themselves of election integrity proposals and ideas and policies, they
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: can draw down from a federal fund and use those funds.
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: We're willing to invest heavily in that. And House Republicans
• 42:43
  Speaker 4: will put together a reconciliation bill, Reconciliation 3.0, that will
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: have that. I talked the president through that in detail
• 42:48
  Speaker 4: this morning, as I have in the past. And he said,
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: can we do it? I said, we can. If the
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: Republicans will stand together, we're on the line right now
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: to defend it.
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: Hold on.
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: So that's what we're going to do. The president said,
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: I want to see some progress on it. I said,
• 43:01
  Speaker 4: I'd love to show it to you. We had a
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: meeting today. We had some more coming up. And so
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: he's He decided, and I didn't announce it. I wanted
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: him to announce it, but we're delaying this. As you know,
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: he has a window of time before he has to
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: sign a bill, and he's going to use a little
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: bit more of that window of time, and we're going
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: to go through this together. Now, the housing bill is
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: a great product because this guy right here fought like
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: a warrior poet to defend our principles. It did have
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: a lot of Elizabeth Warren's preferences and policy provisions in
• 43:27
  Speaker 4: the original.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: And they say they got rid of it. Okay, so
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: on the reconciliation thing, You, perhaps, Chad, you picked up
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: what I picked up just a moment ago. He said,
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: we'll create a grant program. And if these left-wing states
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: want election integrity, we'll have federal dollars for them to
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: do that. Are you serious? If Democrat-run states all of
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: a sudden decide they want to protect voters from having
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: their votes stolen, then we'll create a program that they
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: can do that with?
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: What is it?
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: They can opt in? They have optional election integrity? What
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: the hell kind of plan is this? This is so stupid.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: And look, is it possible to use the budget in
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: order to compel behavior in states? Yeah, it's been done before.
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: In fact, the reason the drinking age is 21 in
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: every state in America is because the federal government conditioned
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: federal highway funding based on that rule. You only get
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: the money if your drinking age is at a minimum
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: of 21. That's it. And that's how every state ended
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: up with a 21-year-old drinking age. So if we threaten
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: to cut off some of these states from massive amounts
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: of federal money, unless they have election integrity, that could work.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: But creating new grant programs and saying, hey, we've got
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: an election integrity fund if you'd like to make your
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: elections more secure. I mean, to the extent that the
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: left will do anything with that, they'll probably just steal
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: the money. And then not give us election integrity. It's
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: like the same way when we negotiate with the left
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: on the border, you know, comprehensive immigration reform. We'll do
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: border security and amnesty. What do we end up with?
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: Just amnesty, no border security. So how about no? How
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: about no? This is stupid. And this is, again, an
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: attempt to try and placate the Trump voters into which
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: voted the majority of voters in 2024. President Trump and
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: his agenda win the popular vote in the last presidential election.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: This is an attempt to placate us. Stop placating us.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Just do the job. Just do the hard work of
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: standing on your own two feet in the Senate and
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: pass the Save America Act. In fact, I'd like them
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: to do that. Here's a problem though. Senate's going on recess.
• 45:55
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: They have a very long recess they have to take.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: They're going on vacation. And Mike Lee is straight up saying,
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: this is stupid. What are we doing? We should stay
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: in session. Cut nine. Mike Lee last night.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: Watch.
• 46:10
  Speaker 6: Okay, so a lot has happened today. But I've got
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: a concern. We do have a lot to do. A
• 46:18
  Speaker 6: lot of work that needs to be done. The Save
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: America Act really does need to be passed. Why are
• 46:25
  Speaker 6: we taking a recess right now? Why on earth is
• 46:29
  Speaker 6: the Senate wanting to recess for two weeks? Now, I
• 46:32
  Speaker 6: get it. America's 250th birthday is coming up.
• 46:35
  Speaker 10: That's great.
• 46:36
  Speaker 6: It's all the more reason why we should finish our work.
• 46:38
  Speaker 6: It's all the more reason why we should finish, do
• 46:41
  Speaker 6: everything we possibly can to pass the Save America Act
• 46:44
  Speaker 6: instead of recessing for two weeks. Only come back and
• 46:48
  Speaker 6: work for a few weeks and then recess for another
• 46:51
  Speaker 6: five or six weeks after that.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 46:55
  Speaker 6: Why even bother to spend all this time and all
• 46:58
  Speaker 6: this effort campaigning and running for office if when we
• 47:02
  Speaker 6: get here, we're constantly taking a recess? A recess at
• 47:06
  Speaker 6: a moment when the Republican Party controls the House and
• 47:09
  Speaker 6: the Senate and the White House.
• 47:12
  Speaker 7: Why?
• 47:12
  Speaker 6: Why do we do this? There's got to be a
• 47:15
  Speaker 6: better way, a way that doesn't constantly involve saying, oh, wait,
• 47:18
  Speaker 6: we got to take a recess. We've got to leave.
• 47:23
  Speaker 6: The American people deserve better than this. They deserve to
• 47:26
  Speaker 6: have free and fair elections. And we got to fix it.
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: I know it's frustrating. I know it's frustrating. I'm frustrated
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: by it. And I'm a generally positive guy. I'm very
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: frustrated by this. God bless Mike Lee for continuing to
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: stick it to them. He is not making friends in
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: that establishment Republican conference. They are upset with Mike Lee.
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: Thumbelina and John Cornyn and Bill Cassidy, they really resent
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: that he keeps doing this. In fact, I guarantee you
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: that one of their frustrations is that American citizens are
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: more in touch now with the actual, with Senate procedure
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: at a level we've never had to be focused before.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: Don't you feel like that at all, Chad? Like, you
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: know more about how the Senate operates now than you
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: have in your entire life. Like, it was for years now,
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: you kind of just like, okay, well, it's a little Byzantine,
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: a little hard to understand how they do their business,
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: but whatever. The goal is that they should get a
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: bill out of the Senate, get a bill out of
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: the House, send it off to the president. Now we're
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: up in the details. Now we're so sick of the crap.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: We're like, okay, show me how you do your job.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: Open that box up. Tell me what's in there. How
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: many votes do you need? What is that about? What's
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: the cloture vote about? 60 votes? 60 votes to do
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: what exactly? Oh, to end debate. What about starting it? Oh,
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: you can start it and you're not starting it? Recess.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: Why are you on recess for most of the year?
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: What's that about? Give us give us an update. Don't
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: you feel like they're parole officer now? Like you're just
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: like you're all over these guys. And rightfully so. You
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: should be. Because our attention to detail on this subject
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: will result in a better United States Senate. And it
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: might not happen today. It might not happen this year.
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: But it can happen very quickly, I think, over the
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: course of several elections. But time is of the essence.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: If we have fraudulent elections that become dominant in dictating
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: American power, we're screwed, which is why, of course, we're
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: fighting so feverishly, including against the establishment forces who don't
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: want us focused on the details for the Safe America Act.
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: It's remarkable. And so stand on your freaking feet and
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: fight for this. We're not asking that much just for
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: you to do your jobs. So that's the update. That's
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: a long-winded update on the Save America Act today. I
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: got to say, though, God bless the president of the
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: United States. I'm reminded of why we love the guy
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: in the first place. I'm so reminded. Yesterday's news cycle
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: just reminded me of why I love this guy and
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: why I voted for him so many times. Because he fights.
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: The guy is Leonidas in the hot gates in the
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: Battle of Thermopylae. He's just fighting, even against his own party.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Bring them on. He's fighting everybody. He's trying to fight
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: the Democrats. He's fighting the Iranians, clearly overseas, speaking of
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: the Persians. He's fighting, fighting, fighting every single element that's
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: fighting back against us. And the view that he's taken
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: in the past and the view that he continues to
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: quite obviously have Is they're not after me, they're after you.
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: I'm just standing in the way. Holy cow, is he
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: standing in the way. Yesterday he announced, I'm not even
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: signing legislation that both houses sent me, that both parties
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: send me, unless you give me election integrity. If American
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: citizens can summon 10% of the fight that their president
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: is waging for them right now, we will continue to
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: have a very good country. And the evidence is out
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: there that American citizens are waging this fight. The United
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: States Senate is getting so many phone calls right now
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: from people like us demanding that they actually do their jobs,
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: which is why they're at their wits end right now.
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: They're getting it from every direction, whether it's their inboxes,
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: their phones or from the president of the United States.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: I'm reminded of why I love this guy. I was
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: like I was just so encouraged by it yesterday. I
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: was like, man, how many rabbits can this guy pull
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: out of his head? He did it recently, too, with
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: Bill Palti in this director of national intelligence fight as
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: the Senate was rushing to stop him from having his
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: chosen guy in that role. He goes, I'll tell you what,
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: I'm withdrawing my nomination of Jay Clayton. We're keeping Bill
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: Palti there. You know what Bill Palti's done? The guy's
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: already removed over 50 people from their jobs at the
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: director of national intelligence office.
• 51:54
  Speaker 8: 50.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: And that's in no time. He hasn't even been on
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: the job for a week. It's pretty great. And and
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: I think and I think there's more good things to come.
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: I'm not sick of the winning. I'm not at all.
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: In fact, one of the big fights that he's got
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: right now, as I say, juggling chainsaws and catching the
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: handles is Iran. And we got an update on we
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: got a couple updates on that subject. First and foremost,
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: I don't have video for you right now. Probably some
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: audio on the radio show on this subject. But Marco
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: Rubio was speaking to the press this morning and saying, look, guys,
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: He continues to reiterate, just people settle down. This memorandum
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: of understanding is all about restraining Iran. He goes, I
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: don't care what they say in public. They're going to
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: do what Marco Rubio refers to as maximalist press conferences
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: where they're constantly releasing statements about how they're going to
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: pull one over on the United States and they haven't
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: agreed to inspectors and all these other things. He goes,
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: we've always anticipated this. This is the way they behave.
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: I don't care how many press conferences they do. What
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: it comes down to is, do they actually screw up
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: in action? So for instance, right now, we are liberating
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: a bunch of ships from that area of the world
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: that can now finally pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: You just heard the president talking about oil prices coming
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: down to $ 70 a barrel and falling. The oil is flowing,
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: and that is a pressing humanitarian concern. We need cheap,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: abundant American energy for mankind, and in particular for the
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: president of the United States, Americans to flourish. It's a
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: huge deal. JD Vance, not JD Vance, JD Vance has
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: been saying this, but Marco Rubio just said that that
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: oil is flowing. But if Iran gets in the way,
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: they've got another thing coming. So it doesn't matter what
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: kind of nonsense comes out of their mouths. What matters
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: is their actions. And so as of right now, the
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: administration continues these negotiations. And Scott Besson yesterday, speaking to
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: the press, he said, look, these oil sanctions that we're
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: lifting right now on Iran, which allow Iran to enter
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: into the legal international market to sell oil, it's having
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: a negative effect on China because China can't buy discount
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: oil and be Iran's only buyer anymore. Now China has
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: to compete at a higher price on the open market,
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: and they're not getting as high of a percentage of
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: Iran's oil, which is, by the way, what you and
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: I have been talking about now as long as we've
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: known about this aspect of the Memorandum of Understanding. How
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: is the rest of the media missing these points? These
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: are the most obvious things. And Scott Besson says, Iran
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: is getting a taste of what it would be like
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: to be a normal country. A little bit of carrots.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: Little sweetener to say, hey, you start acting normal, a
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: very bright future awaits you. Watch the Treasury Secretary, who's great.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: Watch this. Selling oil.
• 54:43
  Speaker 8: It was going to China, but at a discount. It
• 54:45
  Speaker 8: is a carrot that we can always pull back. We
• 54:48
  Speaker 8: want them to see what it feels like not having
• 54:50
  Speaker 8: the sanctions on. And then we can always put them
• 54:54
  Speaker 8: back on.
• 54:55
  Speaker 10: Their economy is hurting, though, obviously. Devastating.
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: Devastating.
• 54:58
  Speaker 8: They've got more than 100% inflation. Troops weren't getting paid.
• 55:02
  Speaker 8: So we have laid their economy to waste. And that's
• 55:06
  Speaker 8: what brought them to the table.
• 55:08
  Speaker 10: So when you hear the Iranians, maybe it's the IRGC,
• 55:11
  Speaker 10: with this public relations, saying the IAEA inspector's not coming,
• 55:15
  Speaker 10: the Strait of Hormuz is closed, all of these things
• 55:18
  Speaker 10: day to day— Get picked up.
• 55:22
  Speaker 8: What amazes me is the same people, a lot of
• 55:25
  Speaker 8: the hawks in the U.S. who say, you can't believe
• 55:27
  Speaker 8: anything the Iranians say unless they say it about the negotiations.
• 55:32
  Speaker 8: Believe them for the negotiations. Remember Baghdad Bob from Iraq?
• 55:37
  Speaker 8: It's kind of Turan Tim. It's just a lot of
• 55:40
  Speaker 8: big talk. And let's just see how this cooks out.
• 55:45
  Speaker 8: But I'm optimistic.
• 55:48
  Speaker 4: I love it.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: He's right, too. It's funny. It's like there's a category
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: of people in the United States, these neocon type, well,
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: what he refers to as war hawk politicians in D.C.
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: who are constantly crapping all over the president's attempt to
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: get a peace deal here and saying the Iranians can't
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: be trusted. The Iranians can't be trusted. And as soon
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: as the Iranians say something right now about the deal,
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: they're like, oh, that's not part of the deal. They're like, Iran,
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: trust them. I'm like, no, you can't have it both ways.
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: The answer is the Iranians can't be trusted, to be clear.
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: That's the position of the Trump administration and the president
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: and the vice president and the secretary of state and
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: the treasury secretary and the secretary of war and all
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: the way down the line. The Iranians can't be trusted.
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: Join us in that assessment, would you please? I think
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of you used to have it, so it'd
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: be good if you would join us again on that subject.
• 56:42
  Speaker 8: Amazing.
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of foreign policy, we do have
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: breaking news this morning, a big international crisis, actually, breaking overnight.
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: We're just getting the pieces of this, and we'll have
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: a greater sense of what exactly happened in Venezuela coming up,
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: I think, as I do the radio show today starting
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: at noon Eastern time. But at least 164 people are
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: dead overnight, killed in a pair of twin horrific earthquakes
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: in Venezuela, a seven and a half magnitude earthquake and
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: a 7.2 magnitude earthquake, a foreshock, they say, hit one
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: after the other, one after the other overnight. And they
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: say at least 164 people are dead, 971 are injured.
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: This is according to Venezuela's government right now. And they
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: said there was a resident, CNN said a resident who
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: survived the earthquake that hit Caracas in 1967 said that
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: last night's earthquakes were unlike anything that he experienced back then.
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: And there's lots of really horrific imagery coming out from Venezuela.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: So first and foremost, even before I get into kind
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: of the updates as we have them this morning, I
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: would ask for the prayers that you can lift up
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: for the people of Venezuela and for the search and
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: rescue teams and the survivors as they comb through the
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: massive rubble that's clearly there. in the country right now.
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: The president this morning has already indicated that America does
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: stand ready to help and said the following. He said
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: the two major earthquakes that just hit the great people
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: of Venezuela are both massive in scale and have left
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: a devastating number of deaths. The USA stands ready, willing,
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: and able to help. I've instructed all agencies of our
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: government to get ready to move quickly. We will be
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: there for our new and great friends. Early reports are
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: not good, President DJT. Secretary Marco Rubio did say this
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: morning that the airport, even the runway there is destroyed,
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: and this is going to require the United States military
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: coming up with some solutions that they are very good
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: at in order to regain air access in the country.
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: So there was a lot of moving parts underway. But
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: the role that you and I can play right away
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: is lifting up our prayers for the people of Venezuela
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: as they deal with this. So some breaking news on
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: all fronts this morning, including international. We've got a lot
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: more to get to. I'm going to do it on
• 59:12

• 59:14

• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: You're a guy who is the definition of grit.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 9: Injuries have ended plenty of careers, but instead you decided
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 9: yours would only be a chapter instead of the ending.
