Speaker 1: WE SEEM TO BE TALKING ABOUT WE SEEM TO BE
0:12
Speaker 1: TALKING ABOUT CHINA A LOT, USUALLY IN AN ADVERSARIAL CAPACITY,
0:15
Speaker 1: WHETHER IT'S ELECTION INTERFERENCE, COMPETITION OVER AI AND DATA CENTERS,
0:19
Speaker 1: OR EVEN A GOOD OLD-FASHIONED TRADE WAR AND TARIFFS. CHINA
0:23
Speaker 1: TODAY IS LIKE THE RUSSIA OF OUR CHILDHOOD, AND TOMORROW,
0:27
Speaker 1: THE LEADER OF COMMUNIST CHINA WALKS THROUGH THE FRONT DOOR
0:30
Speaker 1: OF THE WHITE HOUSE. THE OFFICIAL STATE VISIT STARTED where
0:39
Speaker 1: the president greeted him on the tarmac. And tomorrow, the
0:43
Speaker 1: real event, President Trump welcomes him to the White House
0:45
Speaker 1: for the centerpiece of a three-day production. Thursday begins in
0:49
Speaker 1: the morning with a state arrival ceremony on the South Lawn.
0:51
Speaker 1: 479 troops from every branch of the United States military,
0:56
Speaker 1: the Marine Band playing both national anthems, a presidential salute
1:01
Speaker 1: from the Marine Silent Drill Platoon, and then a full
1:04
Speaker 1: military review in the Rose Garden with the old Guard
1:08
Speaker 1: Fife and Drum Corps and the Commandant's own Marine Drum
1:13
Speaker 1: and Bugle Corps. The ceremony closes with a flyover, a
1:17
Speaker 1: B-2 Spirit stealth bomber, and four F-22 Raptors screaming over
1:21
Speaker 1: the White House. Then the formal summit of face-to-face between
1:24
Speaker 1: the two most powerful men on Earth. While the two
1:26
Speaker 1: presidents meet, First Lady Melania Trump takes Madame Peng Lee-Wan
1:30
Speaker 1: across town to the Smithsonian's National Museum of Asian Art,
1:35
Speaker 1: and tomorrow night, A state dinner in the East Room
1:38
Speaker 1: with a guest list packed full of the biggest names
1:41
Speaker 1: in American technology. Kind of a hint about what we
1:44
Speaker 1: think they'll be talking about. It's the highest honor. This
1:47
Speaker 1: country extends to a foreign leader. And it's being extended
1:51
Speaker 1: to the head of the Chinese Communist Party. This is
1:53
Speaker 1: the second time the two leaders have met this year.
1:56
Speaker 1: Back in May, President Trump made the trip to China
1:59
Speaker 1: and stood in the Great Hall of the People. Now
2:02
Speaker 1: Xi Jinping is here in our capital, in our house.
2:07
Speaker 1: Make no mistake, President Trump is going to be looking
2:09
Speaker 1: for a deal. So what is actually on the table tomorrow?
2:14
Speaker 1: Of course, trade and tariffs. AT THE CENTER OF IT,
2:17
Speaker 1: THE RARE EARTH MINERAL FIGHT, TAIWAN, THE FLASHPOINT THAT COULD
2:21
Speaker 1: DEFINE THIS CENTURY, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, OF COURSE, AND WHO'S GOING
2:25
Speaker 1: TO LEAD THE WORLD IN AI? AND THE WAR IN IRAN,
2:29
Speaker 1: I'M SURE, WILL COME UP. And there's one more thing
2:32
Speaker 1: on the table, the release of Americans and the political
2:35
Speaker 1: prisoners the communist regime is holding in its jails, including
2:39
Speaker 1: Jimmy Lay, the 78-year-old pro-democracy publisher, sitting in a Hong
2:43
Speaker 1: Kong prison on a 20-year sentence for the crime of
2:46
Speaker 1: running a newspaper the party didn't like. Hey, guess what?
2:49
Speaker 1: That's what state-run TV actually looks like, by the way. Now,
2:53
Speaker 1: on Friday, the visit closes out. The president and first
2:56
Speaker 1: lady welcome Xi and Madame Ping to the South Portico
3:00
Speaker 1: for tea in the Red Room. Then both couples travel
3:03
Speaker 1: together to the National Archives, home of the Declaration of
3:06
Speaker 1: Independence and the Constitution of the United States, to view
3:10
Speaker 1: historic records from the history of the U.S.-China relationship. And
3:15
Speaker 1: that's it. After that, the president says goodbye. They bid
3:18
Speaker 1: farewell to the leader of China, Now, to more on
3:23
Speaker 1: what happened today and what's expected throughout the week, there's
3:26
Speaker 1: no one better to walk us through that than a
3:28
Speaker 1: guy who covers the White House every single day for
3:30
Speaker 1: this network, President Trump's favorite correspondent, Daniel Baldwin, OAN's chief
3:35
Speaker 1: White House correspondent, at Joint Base Andrews after the arrival
3:40
Speaker 1: of Bing. I mean, of G. What an amazing day.
3:44
Speaker 1: I mean, a lot's going to happen in these next
3:48
Speaker 1: few days, right? Of course, David.
3:51
Speaker 2: And you have to think about what's historic about what
3:54
Speaker 2: happened here today. The last time a sitting U.S. president
3:58
Speaker 2: greeted a foreign leader at Joint Base Andrews was former
4:00
Speaker 2: President Obama with Pope Francis. This hasn't happened in about
4:04
Speaker 2: a decade, and it really shows you how much stock
4:06
Speaker 2: President Trump puts into managing his relationship with Xi Jinping
4:11
Speaker 2: and how he views that likely as how to ultimately
4:14
Speaker 2: manage China. And it shows the confidence that the president
4:18
Speaker 2: puts at his own personal diplomacy with foreign leaders. He's
4:21
Speaker 2: a businessman when it comes down to it. And when
4:24
Speaker 2: you ask him, he's like, I ultimately make deals. It's
4:26
Speaker 2: what I've done throughout my entire life. And this was
4:29
Speaker 2: a form of deal-making. It is a form of diplomacy.
4:33
Speaker 2: One of the hallmarks of Trump 2.0 in Washington is
4:37
Speaker 2: that this administration and this president will talk to anyone,
4:40
Speaker 2: any time, any place.
4:42
Speaker 1: That's the way they do diplomacy. This is no different.
4:45
Speaker 2: And the president always knows what he's doing when it
4:48
Speaker 2: comes to things like this. And he certainly has a plan.
4:51
Speaker 2: and he knows what he's doing when it comes to
4:52
Speaker 2: managing China, that's for sure, David.
4:54
Speaker 1: Well, and also, President Trump and Xi have had a
4:58
Speaker 1: good relationship for a long time. The two men respect
5:01
Speaker 1: each other. Certainly, Trump respects power. Xi Jinping is a
5:05
Speaker 1: powerful leader in China. And last time they came, they
5:09
Speaker 1: had a great time, and Trump enjoyed his visit there.
5:11
Speaker 1: So I think they're definitely going to enjoy each other's company.
5:15
Speaker 1: And face to face, I expect certain deals to get done.
5:18
Speaker 1: Just the fact that so many tech leaders are going
5:19
Speaker 1: to be there for the dinner What do you expect
5:22
Speaker 1: the biggest developments? I mean, I know you're going to
5:23
Speaker 1: have to fortune tell a little bit here, but what
5:25
Speaker 1: do you expect the biggest developments to be out of
5:27
Speaker 1: this summit?
5:30
Speaker 2: Keep an eye on the trade front, David. We know
5:33
Speaker 2: that this trade truce that Washington and Beijing struck, that
5:36
Speaker 2: expires in early November. And this truce sort of eliminated
5:40
Speaker 2: the threat of triple-digit tariffs from Washington, and it eliminated
5:45
Speaker 2: a lot of export restrictions that China put on rare
5:48
Speaker 2: earth minerals that the world essentially relies on for smartphones,
5:53
Speaker 2: missiles and defense products and hospitals and whatnot. And the
5:57
Speaker 2: two sides were able to come to a truce in
5:59
Speaker 2: October of 2025. But that expires in November. I would
6:03
Speaker 2: expect there to be some movement on that. whether it's
6:05
Speaker 2: an extension of this truce, whether something gets modified, that
6:09
Speaker 2: will likely happen as well. There's probably going to be
6:13
Speaker 2: some more positive dialogue when it comes to technology and
6:16
Speaker 2: artificial intelligence, given the reported business leaders that will be
6:20
Speaker 2: at that state dinner tomorrow. Keep an eye on that.
6:24
Speaker 2: Treasury Secretary Scott Besson already said that He and his
6:27
Speaker 2: own Chinese counterpart have had productive conversations on the technology
6:31
Speaker 2: front as well. Taiwan is always sort of the elephant
6:35
Speaker 2: in the room, considering the United States' historical precedent position
6:39
Speaker 2: of strategic ambiguity and how China views Taiwan as well.
6:44
Speaker 2: A subtle thing to keep an eye on, David.
6:46
Speaker 1: Is agriculture and fentanyl.
6:48
Speaker 2: Agriculture, the last time the president went to China and Beijing,
6:53
Speaker 2: China agreed to buy billions of dollars of U.S. agricultural
6:58
Speaker 2: products this year, next year, and in 2028. So look
7:02
Speaker 2: for the president to continue to put pressure on China
7:05
Speaker 2: to uphold that end of the bargain. And also look
7:08
Speaker 2: for the president to continue to put pressure— on China
7:12
Speaker 2: to continue to cut down on the supply side of fentanyl.
7:15
Speaker 2: We know the United States has had a lot of
7:17
Speaker 2: progress when it comes to cutting down on fentanyl-related deaths
7:21
Speaker 2: under President Trump's watch. Data from the CDC only corroborates that.
7:25
Speaker 2: We know the fentanyl-linked deaths from the year of 2024
7:27
Speaker 2: through 2025 actually declined by more than 20 percent, according
7:31
Speaker 2: to data from the CDC. We also know that earlier
7:34
Speaker 2: this week, David, China added two countries to its export
7:38
Speaker 2: two chemicals, excuse me, to its export control list for
7:41
Speaker 2: drug precursor chemicals requiring permits for exports to North America,
7:46
Speaker 2: the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. That brings the number of
7:49
Speaker 2: chemicals that's covered to this China to North America licensing
7:54
Speaker 2: system to 18. And the White House has previously pointed
7:58
Speaker 2: to this statistic, a 45 percent decline in nationwide fentanyl
8:02
Speaker 2: seizures in the fiscal year 2025 compared to the year before.
8:05
Speaker 2: And their POV is that this essentially means that it's
8:09
Speaker 2: evidence of disruption of further up the supply chain, reducing
8:13
Speaker 2: the amount of fentanyl-related drugs that are actually reaching the
8:16
Speaker 2: southern border or the northern border. All that going to
8:19
Speaker 2: say that the president has enjoyed a significant amount of
8:21
Speaker 2: success in decreasing fentanyl deaths. Look for him to continue
8:25
Speaker 2: to put pressure on China to continue to find ways
8:28
Speaker 2: to curb the supply side of things here. But again,
8:31
Speaker 2: these are Just some of the topics that are going
8:34
Speaker 2: to be going over. And there's going to be a lot.
8:36
Speaker 2: But definitely keep an eye on trade as well, David.
8:38
Speaker 1: Well, that's a lot scheduled for just a couple of days. But,
8:44
Speaker 1: you know, the president's a dealmaker. And what I love
8:46
Speaker 1: about this president is at his best when he's meeting
8:49
Speaker 1: with foreign leaders. He really does strike some amazing deals.
8:51
Speaker 1: We always hear about deals that nobody even imagined happening.
8:54
Speaker 1: would come out of some of these meetings. And so
8:56
Speaker 1: I think some good stories are to follow. Daniel Baldwin, always,
9:00
Speaker 1: always great. Think about Greenland, David. That just happened. Oh,
9:02
Speaker 1: that's right. I mean, Greenland. I mean, and nobody even
9:05
Speaker 1: talked about it because we were so distracted with everything
9:09
Speaker 1: else that happened after Greenland. The president is the dealmaker
9:13
Speaker 1: in chief, and I expect some big news. And I
9:14
Speaker 1: know you're going to bring it to us because you're excellent,
9:16
Speaker 1: and I appreciate you being here as always. Thanks, David.
9:20
Speaker 1: Still ahead, the Justice Department just clawed back billions in
9:23
Speaker 1: Obamacare fraud and charged non-citizens, non-citizens, for voting in our elections.
9:29
Speaker 1: The man leading that crackdown at the DOJ, Assistant Attorney
9:31
Speaker 1: General Colin McDonald, is here. Then at the United Nations,
9:35
Speaker 1: the whole world was wondering what the United States would
9:37
Speaker 1: do with artificial intelligence, and Trump says... We're not reining
9:40
Speaker 1: it in. We're full speed ahead. We have Jeff Dornick,
9:43
Speaker 1: founder of Pickaxe, to discuss what that means for the
9:46
Speaker 1: future of AI. And a conservative wave is sweeping the
9:49
Speaker 1: entire Western Hemisphere with the last domino about to fall.
9:52
Speaker 1: We're talking Brazil with Paulo Figueiro. All that's ahead. Stick around.
10:01

10:38
Speaker 1: The Trump administration continues to crack down on the fraud
10:41
Speaker 1: has run rampant, mostly in blue states in this country.
10:44
Speaker 1: And yesterday, Vice President J.D. Vance took the stage in
10:47
Speaker 1: his role as President Trump's fraud czar to drop a bombshell.
10:52
Speaker 1: Take a look.
10:52
Speaker 4: We are stopping Obamacare enrollment for about 750,000 people, 750,000
10:56
Speaker 4: people who we believe are fraudulently enrolled in the program.
10:58
Speaker 5: That's number one.
11:04
Speaker 4: The second thing that we're going to do is we're
11:06
Speaker 4: going to do some additional verification. We expect that most
11:09
Speaker 4: of these people are fraudulently enrolled. But we're going to
11:11
Speaker 4: do some additional verification on about 419,000 people. That's over
11:14
Speaker 4: a million people.
11:15
Speaker 1: In total, 750,000 already getting canceled and 419,000 more being investigated.
11:18
Speaker 1: Some of them may not even exist. THE INVESTIGATORS HAVE
11:27
Speaker 1: BEEN HARD AT WORK, AND THEY'RE CANCELING THE BENEFITS FOR
11:30
Speaker 1: THOSE ENROLLEES, A MOVE THAT VANCE SAYS WILL SAVE TAXPAYERS
11:34
Speaker 1: OVER $ 2 BILLION A YEAR. $ 2 BILLION A YEAR. THINK
11:38
Speaker 1: ABOUT THAT. REMEMBER WHEN DEMOCRATS SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT, LONGEST
11:41
Speaker 1: SHUTDOWN IN HISTORY OVER FUNDING OVER OBAMACARE? AND THERE'S $ 2
11:45
Speaker 1: BILLION JUST FLOATING AROUND OUT THERE IN FRAUD THAT THEY
11:48
Speaker 1: WEREN'T GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT. AND THEY AREN'T JUST
11:50
Speaker 1: CRACKING DOWN ON THE ENROLLMENTS, BUT ALSO ON THE BROKERS
11:54
Speaker 1: THAT BRING THESE PEOPLE INTO THE PROGRAMS. To begin with, look.
11:57
Speaker 4: He found a fraud ring that had 40 agents, 40
12:01
Speaker 4: brokerage agents who had funneled 50,000 people into the Obamacare
12:06
Speaker 4: system fraudulently. Now, some of those people were probably legitimate.
12:10
Speaker 4: Most of those people were not eligible. Either they didn't
12:14
Speaker 4: meet the citizenship or the income requirements. Many of those
12:17
Speaker 4: people quite literally didn't even exist.
12:20
Speaker 1: And it's not just the vice president. The Department of
12:23
Speaker 1: Health and Human Services has been involved in this crackdown.
12:27
Speaker 1: A new report titled Wolves in White Coats was released
12:31
Speaker 1: showing how doctors and hospitals have been abusing insurance codes
12:35
Speaker 1: to line their pockets. The codes they were using, the
12:39
Speaker 1: ones associated with giving puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to minors.
12:44
Speaker 1: That's right. These so-called healthcare professionals have been taking advantage
12:48
Speaker 1: of the Democrat push to allow their gender-affirming care agenda.
12:53
Speaker 1: What a surprise. Now, the department identified nearly $ 11 million
12:56
Speaker 1: in claims involving teenage patients that were billed using a
13:00
Speaker 1: puberty diagnosis code that would not normally be used for
13:03
Speaker 1: any patients older than 13. And of course, with all
13:06
Speaker 1: these benefits ending, even though they're not legal uses of
13:09
Speaker 1: the program, the left is melting down. How could the
13:12
Speaker 1: vice president be taking this away from people who can't
13:15
Speaker 1: afford it? The elderly, single moms, people laid off from
13:18
Speaker 1: their jobs. Well, he had something to say about that, too. Look.
13:21
Speaker 4: Keep on working with them. But look, it's a lot easier,
13:24
Speaker 4: and it would be a lot easier if congressional Democrats
13:27
Speaker 4: were willing to participate in this work. And the pitch
13:29
Speaker 4: that I'd make to them is this is not about
13:30
Speaker 4: cutting off anybody from their benefits. It's about cutting off
13:34
Speaker 4: fraudsters from stealing from these programs.
13:36
Speaker 5: If you really believe and food.
13:38
Speaker 4: Stamps for low-income moms and kids, if you really believe
13:42
Speaker 4: in the Medicare program that provides medical care to our
13:45
Speaker 4: elderly citizens, and I think that all of us do,
13:48
Speaker 4: then you should be falling over yourself to help us
13:51
Speaker 4: fight the fraud.
13:52
Speaker 1: He's right. He's trying to preserve the programs for the
13:54
Speaker 1: people who need it. It's compassion. And, of course, healthcare
13:57
Speaker 1: fraud isn't the only place this administration is investigating. Homeland
14:01
Speaker 1: Security investigators, they announced yesterday that they're cracking down on
14:06
Speaker 1: non-citizens voting in our elections ahead of this year's midterms.
14:09
Speaker 1: HSI has found their efforts have resulted in 1,600 voter
14:14
Speaker 1: fraud cases, leading to 160 arrests. Let me say that again, 1,600
14:19
Speaker 1: voter fraud cases, 160 arrests, with just six weeks until
14:23
Speaker 1: the election. It's more important than ever that these investigations continue. Now,
14:28
Speaker 1: as expected, the liberal media are taking this announcement and
14:30
Speaker 1: spinning it, saying, oh, that's not that big of a number.
14:33
Speaker 1: That falls short that there were thousands of non-citizens voting.
14:37
Speaker 1: And that must mean it's so rare that it doesn't matter, right? Wrong.
14:41
Speaker 1: That's not the whole story. They say it doesn't happen.
14:44
Speaker 1: It can't happen. And then when there's proof that it's happening,
14:47
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, well, the numbers are too small. It
14:50
Speaker 1: is happening, and it's happening at a level that needs
14:53
Speaker 1: to stop. One illegal vote is one illegal vote too many.
14:56
Speaker 1: And by the way, HSI doesn't prosecute these. They go
15:01
Speaker 1: and refer these for prosecutions to the very states that
15:04
Speaker 1: opened the door for illegals to vote in the first place.
15:08
Speaker 1: And if they don't investigate it, well, that kind of
15:10
Speaker 1: suppresses the numbers. So essentially, we have sanctuary foxes guarding
15:14
Speaker 1: the hen house. But take it from me, here are
15:16
Speaker 1: the investigators of no words. Look.
15:17
Speaker 6: When an investigation develops evidence supporting potential prosecution, we present
15:22
Speaker 6: those findings to the appropriate prosecutors for their independent review
15:27
Speaker 6: and charging decision. The broader scope of this election integrity
15:31
Speaker 6: initiative is about enforcing federal law, protecting lawful voting, and
15:35
Speaker 6: other official processes from criminal exploitation.
15:38
Speaker 1: So we have a massive crackdown on health care fraud,
15:40
Speaker 1: an ongoing investigation into voter fraud, and half of the
15:43
Speaker 1: government still unwilling to do anything about either of them. Now,
15:46
Speaker 1: my next guest has been at the forefront of this
15:49
Speaker 1: administration's effort to eliminate fraud in this country. He's the
15:52
Speaker 1: first ever assistant attorney general for the Department of Justice's
15:56
Speaker 1: National Fraud Enforcement Division. Welcome to the show. Colin McDonald,
16:00
Speaker 1: thank you so much for being here, sir. And thank
16:02
Speaker 1: you so much for the important work you do preserving
16:05
Speaker 1: these programs for the people who actually need them. Big
16:08
Speaker 1: week with fraud enforcement, right?
16:12
Speaker 7: David, it's a great week for the people of the
16:14
Speaker 7: United States of America, a very bad week.
16:16
Speaker 1: For fraudsters across the board.
16:18
Speaker 7: The president and the vice president have their fraud-fighting team
16:22
Speaker 7: working at warp speed to reverse the effects of the
16:25
Speaker 7: prior administration and the fraudster's that have taken hold across
16:30
Speaker 7: our government benefits programs.
16:31
Speaker 1: You heard about the.
16:33
Speaker 7: Crackdown on those exploiting Obamacare. You heard about the election
16:37
Speaker 7: fraud cases that we are bringing. We are full speed
16:40
Speaker 7: ahead to do the hard work that justice requires to
16:44
Speaker 7: ensure that people are not stealing from Americans and that
16:48
Speaker 7: non-citizens are not stealing our voices and our votes.
16:53
Speaker 1: And that is the two things that are so important
16:56
Speaker 1: to America. One, obviously, our election security. It's the most
16:59
Speaker 1: important thing. And obviously, we've seen the Senate. They haven't
17:02
Speaker 1: been able to get that bill to the president's desk
17:03
Speaker 1: that would put some safeguards in place to protect against
17:07
Speaker 1: the opportunity for voter fraud, which is why the work
17:09
Speaker 1: you're doing is so important there. But the other side
17:11
Speaker 1: of this, too, is all these other programs, you know.
17:15
Speaker 1: PRESIDENT TRUMP IS COMPASSIONATE ABOUT THESE PROGRAMS FOR THE PEOPLE
17:18
Speaker 1: WHO NEED IT. THAT'S WHY HE PUT J.D. VANS AS
17:20
Speaker 1: CZAR OVER THIS FRAUD, BECAUSE HE WANTS THE PROGRAMS TO
17:22
Speaker 1: BENEFIT THE PEOPLE WHO NEED IT. DIFFERENT FROM THE NARRATIVE
17:25
Speaker 1: YOU HEAR IN THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA ABOUT WHAT REPUBLICANS CARE ABOUT,
17:28
Speaker 1: WHAT DEMOCRATS CARE ABOUT. Stopping the fraud in health care specifically,
17:34
Speaker 1: that gives Americans access to funds and programs that is
17:38
Speaker 1: meant for them, not for fraudsters. And so this affects
17:42
Speaker 1: Americans in ways that most people don't even realize, right?
17:48
Speaker 1: Let me put it this way.
17:49
Speaker 7: Let's say you show up to a hospital room, a
17:52
Speaker 7: waiting room, and there are 20 people in line in
17:54
Speaker 7: front of you and you have a terrible broken arm
17:57
Speaker 7: and you need to see the doctor.
17:58
Speaker 1: Well, guess what?
17:59
Speaker 7: 12 of the people in front of you have absolutely
18:02
Speaker 7: no medical concerns, have no issues whatsoever. They're fraudsters. They're
18:06
Speaker 7: in line in front of you. They are taking up
18:10
Speaker 7: the time of the triage nurse, preventing you from getting
18:13
Speaker 7: the care that you need. That's the analogy that fits
18:16
Speaker 7: what we're endeavoring to do right now is to get
18:18
Speaker 7: the fraudsters out of line so that the people who
18:21
Speaker 7: need the care, the people who need the food, the
18:24
Speaker 7: people who need our compassion can get it the quickest
18:29
Speaker 7: way possible.
18:30
Speaker 1: Now, you are part of, I mean, before you, there
18:34
Speaker 1: wasn't this part of the DOJ that actually looked into
18:37
Speaker 1: these issues. I mean, obviously, this has been a problem
18:39
Speaker 1: that's going on a long time. We're solving them now.
18:42
Speaker 1: And the speed in which Todd Blanch is prosecuting these,
18:44
Speaker 1: it's really amazing to see. What happened before your division,
18:51
Speaker 1: I guess, even existed? How did we go so long
18:53
Speaker 1: allowing the fraud to continue until the president and the
18:55
Speaker 1: administration decided to do something about it?
19:01
Speaker 7: So President Trump has a new vision for how to
19:03
Speaker 7: fight this fraud problem. In the last 170 days, the
19:07
Speaker 7: Department of Justice has brought over 1,200 fraud enforcement actions
19:11
Speaker 7: across the country.
19:12
Speaker 1: And that's a.
19:12
Speaker 7: Direct result of the new vision that he has set
19:15
Speaker 7: into motion to create this new National Fraud Enforcement Division
19:19
Speaker 7: that gives the DOJ the ability to quarterback the field
19:22
Speaker 7: of fraud and ensure that we are bringing appropriate criminal
19:26
Speaker 7: justice tools to fraudsters. So like I said, in 170 days,
19:30
Speaker 7: we've brought over 1200 fraud enforcement actions across the country.
19:35
Speaker 7: We have to we have to follow a new practice
19:41
Speaker 7: with respect to fraud fighting because the old practice didn't work.
19:45
Speaker 1: We needed something new.
19:46
Speaker 7: President Trump and Vice President Vance had the courage to
19:49
Speaker 7: try something new. and we're doing it the best that
19:51
Speaker 7: we can every day.
19:52
Speaker 1: And you're doing an amazing job. You are doing the
19:54
Speaker 1: best that you can. Really, keep up the great work
19:58
Speaker 1: for the American people. And thank you so much for
20:00
Speaker 1: being here to tell this wonderful story. Thank you, David.
20:02
Speaker 1: Appreciate it. Coming up, President Trump stood in front of
20:06
Speaker 1: the globalists at the U.N. and told them America will
20:11
Speaker 1: not rein in artificial intelligence. We're going to win it.
20:14
Speaker 1: What that actually means with the founder of Pickaxe, Jeff Dornick,
20:18
Speaker 1: coming up after this.
20:25

Speaker 3: to easily sign up for the news and conservative talk
20:51
Speaker 3: you can't get anywhere else.
21:01
Speaker 1: Well, there's no question about what President Trump's AI policies are.
21:05
Speaker 1: Yesterday at the United Nations, the president walked up to
21:07
Speaker 1: the podium and told the entire world that the United
21:10
Speaker 1: States is going to win the race for the most
21:13
Speaker 1: powerful technology in the history of mankind and build it
21:16
Speaker 1: full speed ahead. STARTED WITH THE NAME ITSELF FOR YEARS.
21:20
Speaker 1: WE'VE CALLED IT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, AND THE PRESIDENT SAID THAT, NAH,
21:24
Speaker 1: WE'RE GOING TO GO WITH A DIFFERENT NAME. THE WORD
21:26
Speaker 1: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MAKES IT SOUND FAKE, AND IT'S NOT FAKE.
21:30
Speaker 1: SO FROM NOW ON, IN EVERY DOCUMENT THE UNITED STATES
21:33
Speaker 1: GOVERNMENT PRODUCES, IT GETS A NEW NAME, ACCORDING TO PRESIDENT TRUMP,
21:37
Speaker 1: SUPER INTELLIGENCE. AND HIS MESSAGE ON IT COULD NOT HAVE
21:41
Speaker 1: BEEN SIMPLER. WE'RE GOING TO ENCOURAGE IT. HE SAID NOT
21:44
Speaker 1: REIN IT IN.
21:45
Speaker 3: LOOK.
21:48
Speaker 8: Very straight and very strong. I'm not going to stifle
21:51
Speaker 8: growth of something that will be bigger than the Industrial Revolution.
21:55
Speaker 8: Many say bigger than the Industrial Revolution or the Internet itself.
22:00
Speaker 8: And we will be very careful, and that's why we
22:03
Speaker 8: have a Department of Justice that we've already used it,
22:05
Speaker 8: having to do with this very subject, and used it
22:08
Speaker 8: very powerfully.
22:09
Speaker 5: Everything worked out very well and very quickly.
22:12
Speaker 8: And other law enforcement bodies that will rein things in
22:15
Speaker 8: if we have to do that.
22:18
Speaker 5: But we will only encourage superintelligence. We're going to encourage it, not.
22:24
Speaker 1: Rein it in.
22:25
Speaker 8: We're going to watch it closely through the Department of Justice.
22:28
Speaker 1: And this was the fight he was picking. For weeks now,
22:32
Speaker 1: a chorus of powerful people have been demanding government step
22:35
Speaker 1: in and slam the brakes on the technology. And the
22:37
Speaker 1: loudest voices calling for the brakes? The tech companies themselves.
22:41
Speaker 1: The head of one of the biggest AI companies on
22:43
Speaker 1: Earth went out this month and called for a deliberate slowdown.
22:47
Speaker 1: The founders of the other giants lined up behind him.
22:50
Speaker 1: And President Trump? He's all gas, no brakes. He said
22:53
Speaker 1: the people running around screaming that AI is going to
22:56
Speaker 1: kill us all are the very same crowd that spent
22:58
Speaker 1: 30 years telling us the planet was going to burn
23:01
Speaker 1: up from global warming. He called the panic exactly what
23:04
Speaker 1: he believes it was, a hoax. And he flatly rejected,
23:08
Speaker 1: in his words, any attempt to construct a globalist scheme
23:12
Speaker 1: to control the technology. Now, this is a technology the
23:16
Speaker 1: president says will be bigger than the industrial revolution itself.
23:20
Speaker 1: And whoever wins it Whoever reaches super intelligence first and
23:25
Speaker 1: really the best wins, the economy of the next century,
23:28
Speaker 1: the military of the next century, all of it. And
23:31
Speaker 1: right now, America is not trailing anyone. We are ahead.
23:35
Speaker 1: We lead China, in the president's word, by a lot.
23:39
Speaker 1: And he intends to keep it that way. Now, encouraging
23:41
Speaker 1: it is not the same as ignoring it. The president
23:43
Speaker 1: was clear that the Justice Department will keep a close
23:45
Speaker 1: watch on the industry. So this is not a free-for-all,
23:51
Speaker 1: but the direction could not be more different from where
23:54
Speaker 1: the rest of the world is headed. Now, while Europe
23:56
Speaker 1: writes thousands of pages of rules and strangles its own innovation,
24:00
Speaker 1: the president of the United States stood in front of
24:03
Speaker 1: the whole world and said, we build, we lead, we win.
24:07
Speaker 1: But there's a real question buried underneath all of this. Now,
24:10
Speaker 1: my next guest has been sounding the alarm for years.
24:13
Speaker 1: Winning the race is one thing, but if this near-godlike
24:16
Speaker 1: technology ends up owned and controlled by the very same
24:18
Speaker 1: handful of big tech companies that spent a decade censoring us, well, then,
24:23
Speaker 1: who exactly won? Now, he built an empire, an entire
24:27
Speaker 1: platform to fight this kind of concentrated power. Joining me
24:30
Speaker 1: now in studio, Jeff Dornick, founder of Pickaxe, and my
24:34
Speaker 1: good friend, welcome, David Pollak, primetime. I know you're probably
24:38
Speaker 1: not happy with what the president said at the U.N. yesterday,
24:41
Speaker 1: so you go first.
24:42
Speaker 9: Well, it's interesting because I both agree and disagree with
24:46
Speaker 9: President Trump in the sense of we do have.
24:47
Speaker 1: To win the A.I. race. It is imperative to national security.
24:51
Speaker 9: It's imperative for a whole host of reasons that we
24:54
Speaker 9: absolutely must defeat China in this in this A.I. race
24:57
Speaker 9: or else, you know, as Elon Musk described, one of
25:00
Speaker 9: the end games would be Terminator. The Terminator scenario would
25:03
Speaker 9: be if China wins the AI race because of how
25:05
Speaker 9: they would weaponize it and implement it into all sorts
25:07
Speaker 9: of military and all that kind of stuff. At the
25:10
Speaker 9: same time, I think that there's a very real scenario
25:13
Speaker 9: of the application of this technology on the United States
25:16
Speaker 9: citizens if we win the race. And I think that
25:19
Speaker 9: we can make the argument that in the Trump administration,
25:21
Speaker 9: I don't think they're going to weaponize it against us,
25:23
Speaker 9: although there's probably rogue agencies that may do things here
25:26
Speaker 9: and there. But what happens, let's say, if the Democrats
25:29
Speaker 9: win in 2028? All of a sudden, now we've centralized
25:31
Speaker 9: all the power, we've developed artificial intelligence, and then now
25:34
Speaker 9: you have Phil in the Blake, Gavin Newsom, Kamala Harris,
25:37
Speaker 9: whoever it is, now has that at their disposal. Imagine what,
25:41
Speaker 9: let's say we go back to the COVID-19 era of
25:43
Speaker 9: lockdowns and all that. Imagine if we had flock cameras
25:45
Speaker 9: back then. Imagine if we had AI surveillance happening back then.
25:49
Speaker 9: What kind of tyranny would we have had just in
25:51
Speaker 9: that one example that's in our very recent memory? Now,
25:55
Speaker 9: fast forward to, let's say, the Democrats get power again,
25:57
Speaker 9: and now we've established this entire infrastructure in place. How
26:00
Speaker 9: could they weaponize it against us? We've already seen that
26:02
Speaker 9: they'll manipulate the tech companies to censor us.
26:05
Speaker 1: What's life going to be like with AI? And that
26:08
Speaker 1: is the big concern, right? On one hand, we want
26:11
Speaker 1: to make sure that we're not falling behind on the technology,
26:14
Speaker 1: but people have real fears. And how much regulation should
26:18
Speaker 1: we put in place? And how will that regulation transcend administrations?
26:22
Speaker 1: But at the same time, if you listen to President Trump,
26:25
Speaker 1: Any efforts to regulate or rein it in will put
26:28
Speaker 1: us behind. And he says there's enough rules in place already.
26:31
Speaker 1: So how do we ensure that we're moving ahead at
26:34
Speaker 1: the speed in which we need to move ahead, but
26:36
Speaker 1: at the same time, like you said, not end up
26:39
Speaker 1: in a situation where a different administration could potentially weaponize
26:42
Speaker 1: this against us. Yeah. And that's the struggle.
26:44
Speaker 9: And that's, I think, the nuance of the conversation is
26:46
Speaker 9: both things can be very true at the same time.
26:48
Speaker 9: I think for me, I'm looking at it like, how
26:50
Speaker 9: are we applying this in public life? How are we
26:53
Speaker 9: applying it towards or against the American people? And I
26:56
Speaker 9: think that those are very real conversations. I think that
26:59
Speaker 9: we can fast track the development of AI. I think
27:02
Speaker 9: we can even fast track data centers as long as
27:04
Speaker 9: we're handling the the concerns properly, you know, because I
27:07
Speaker 9: think that is the one thing that we control in
27:09
Speaker 9: the ecosystem of AI is the data centers, whereas China
27:11
Speaker 9: owns several other layers of the infrastructure. But when we're
27:14
Speaker 9: talking about, like, okay, our own ability to work, I mean,
27:17
Speaker 9: a lot of these guys, they're developing the technology to
27:19
Speaker 9: be able to replace virtually all humans in the workforce.
27:22
Speaker 1: There's going to be no.
27:22
Speaker 9: More need for human beings to be in the workforce,
27:24
Speaker 9: according to Elon and Sam Altman and all that. So
27:26
Speaker 9: what's America gonna look like if all of a sudden
27:29
Speaker 9: people don't have purpose? Imagine the psychological issues that we'll
27:33
Speaker 9: be dealing with where people in LA already right now
27:36
Speaker 9: that are struggling because they don't have purpose, what's it
27:38
Speaker 9: gonna be like when nobody has a job, nobody has purpose?
27:40
Speaker 9: So there's a lot of very real world scenarios that
27:43
Speaker 9: I think we have to have serious conversations about. And
27:46
Speaker 9: the thing that I'm concerned about is that it seems
27:48
Speaker 9: like we're kind of sweeping it under the rug in
27:49
Speaker 9: order to fast track AI.
27:51
Speaker 1: And I think that we should fast track.
27:52
Speaker 9: AI, but also at the same time, we need to
27:54
Speaker 9: have these nuanced conversations about what is the future going
27:57
Speaker 9: to look like when AI is fully implemented? And I
28:00
Speaker 9: think that that's the concern that some people are having
28:02
Speaker 9: right now where it's like it doesn't feel like we're
28:03
Speaker 9: having that honest conversation before it happens.
28:06
Speaker 1: What do you think the end result of this? What
28:10
Speaker 1: does this look like in, let's say, two years, five years?
28:12
Speaker 1: I mean, you're in the tech space. You have the
28:14
Speaker 1: social media platform. You've talked about how AI is going
28:17
Speaker 1: to replace posters. You believe on meta and other bigger
28:19
Speaker 1: platforms because right now it's studying how people post. What
28:23
Speaker 1: do you think this technology does in year two and
28:25
Speaker 1: year five? What can people look for in the future?
28:27
Speaker 9: I mean, honestly, it's concerning because of how everybody is
28:31
Speaker 9: just hurtling forward before we're actually figuring out, okay, what
28:34
Speaker 9: does this mean for humanity? I think what we're going
28:36
Speaker 9: to see is we're going to see the centralization of
28:37
Speaker 9: power to a handful of these elite companies and these
28:40
Speaker 9: big tech companies moving and to where there's gonna be
28:43
Speaker 9: less and less need for humans. I know there's platforms
28:45
Speaker 9: already where they're laying off developers because it used to
28:48
Speaker 9: be you need 10,000 developers to run a platform, now
28:51
Speaker 9: you need three with AI.
28:52
Speaker 1: It's wild when you actually think about that.
28:54
Speaker 9: And so I think what we're gonna begin to see
28:55
Speaker 9: is we're gonna begin to see AI-generated content creators, which
28:58
Speaker 9: we're already seeing on some of these platforms. Some of
29:00
Speaker 9: the fastest growing content creators are AI generated. They're not
29:03
Speaker 9: even real human beings. And so with that, all of
29:07
Speaker 9: a sudden now, the companies, if the big tech companies
29:09
Speaker 9: like Facebook, who's talking about actually implementing this in real life,
29:12
Speaker 9: if all of a sudden now they control all the
29:14
Speaker 9: content creators, again, there's no more need for humans because
29:17
Speaker 9: they use algorithms to figure out what's going to addict
29:19
Speaker 9: you the most, what's going to get you that dopamine hit,
29:20
Speaker 9: what's going to keep you scrolling, then all of a
29:22
Speaker 9: sudden they can be a free speech platform because they
29:24
Speaker 9: control the speech, because they control the creators. We become
29:27
Speaker 9: the consumers.
29:28
Speaker 1: And it.
29:32
Speaker 9: It feels and it looks like what they're actually doing
29:35
Speaker 9: is making it to where we just become the consumers.
29:38
Speaker 9: And if you've seen the Pixar movie WALL-E, that's the
29:41
Speaker 9: real life scenario. If we don't rein this in and
29:43
Speaker 9: we don't figure out, okay, how are we going to
29:46
Speaker 9: actually apply this and still remain true to our foundational
29:48
Speaker 9: American principles? which elevates the individual, which sees everybody as
29:52
Speaker 9: having individual value and the ability to own something and
29:56
Speaker 9: be independent. And if we don't reign this in, I
29:59
Speaker 9: find that very concerning. But that's the real world application
30:02
Speaker 9: of this. That doesn't mean we don't fast track AI,
30:05
Speaker 9: we don't beat China in the AI race.
30:06
Speaker 1: We just pay attention to what could possibly come out. Man.
30:10
Speaker 1: Think about that. I mean, look, there's some part of
30:12
Speaker 1: me that wouldn't mind sitting on a recliner with a
30:14
Speaker 1: little smoothie all day in this little room. But I do.
30:19
Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying. And I respect all the
30:22
Speaker 1: arguments being made, I believe. and humans. And I think
30:26
Speaker 1: that the need for something organic and real will always
30:29
Speaker 1: supersede the artificial. And just like you're seeing it in
30:31
Speaker 1: Hollywood and even music, anytime things get too techie, you
30:34
Speaker 1: find people just are driven towards something that's more simple
30:38
Speaker 1: and pure. And maybe we'll surprise ourselves. Jeff Dornick, founder
30:43
Speaker 1: of Pickaxe, great platform. If you guys are not on Pickaxe,

31:06

32:20
Speaker 1: SOMETHING REMARKABLE HAS BEEN HAPPENING ACROSS THE ENTIRE WESTERN HEMISPHERE
32:23
Speaker 1: AND THE AMERICAN MEDIA HAS BARELY SAID A WORD ABOUT
32:27
Speaker 1: IT BECAUSE THEY PROBABLY DON'T LIKE THE STORY. ONE BY
32:30
Speaker 1: ONE FROM THE BOTTOM OF SOUTH AMERICA ALL THE WAY
32:32
Speaker 1: UP THE NATIONS OF LATIN AMERICA HAVE BEEN COMING TOGETHER
32:35
Speaker 1: TO FIGHT ALONGSIDE PRESIDENT TRUMP TO TOSS THE SOCIALISTS LEFT
32:39
Speaker 1: OUT OF THEIR BUTTS. Javier Millet took the chainsaw to
32:44
Speaker 1: the socialist state, and his movement is only getting stronger
32:48

32:53
Speaker 1: who beat his communist opponent by 17 points, the biggest
32:57
Speaker 1: vote total in the history of that country. In Bolivia,
33:00

33:13
Speaker 1: nearly every one of them lining up behind President Trump.
33:17

33:19
Speaker 1: together at his resort in Miami for a summit they
33:22
Speaker 1: called the Shield of Americas. A dozen conservative presidents, the
33:26
Speaker 1: new world order of the West, in one room. But
33:31
Speaker 1: there is one last great prize the left is still
33:33
Speaker 1: clinging on to. with dear life. The biggest country in
33:37
Speaker 1: Latin America, Brazil. And in two weeks, Brazil votes. It's
33:41
Speaker 1: the last domino. If it falls, the socialist left has
33:45
Speaker 1: been basically swept nearly entirely from the hemisphere with only
33:48
Speaker 1: really Mexico hanging on and maybe Cuba. And they know it,
33:53
Speaker 1: which is exactly what is happening down there right now
33:56
Speaker 1: should alarm you. Here is the race. The incumbent socialist,
34:00
Speaker 1: Lula de Silva, 80 years old, going for a fourth
34:05
Speaker 1: term against the conservative Flavio Bolsonaro. The polls have it
34:09
Speaker 1: at a dead heat. But in the prediction markets, where
34:12
Speaker 1: the people bet their own real money, the highly accurate
34:15
Speaker 1: prediction markets, Bolsonaro is winning. His odds just shot past 60%.
34:22
Speaker 1: And Lula, well, he's not happy about it. And now
34:25
Speaker 1: those markets are gone dark. Brazil blocked polymarket and more
34:28
Speaker 1: than two dozen betting platforms in the spring. I guess
34:33
Speaker 1: someone's getting nervous about what those results are going to show.
34:36
Speaker 1: This is typical of Lula's government, especially considering what he's
34:39
Speaker 1: done in the past. Remember Lula's chief opponent, the former president,
34:42
Speaker 1: Jair Bolsonaro? He was convicted, imprisoned, and barred from the
34:46
Speaker 1: ballot by Brazil's Supreme Court following the last election. Even
34:50
Speaker 1: conservative journalists who criticized the government were dragged before the
34:53
Speaker 1: Supreme Court, branded a danger to democracy, and pulled off
34:57
Speaker 1: the air. Sound familiar? So here we go again. The
35:01
Speaker 1: markets are switched off. The courts are busy. And the
35:04
Speaker 1: vote is two weeks out. Is Lula laying the groundwork
35:08
Speaker 1: to reject another result he doesn't like? That's the question
35:11
Speaker 1: now hanging over the last free election standing between the
35:15
Speaker 1: left and the loss of the entire hemisphere. Joining me
35:17
Speaker 1: now to break down what all of this means, the
35:19
Speaker 1: biggest broadcaster in South America, my good friend, Paolo Figueroa,
35:24
Speaker 1: journalist extraordinaire. Paolo, welcome back to David Pollak Prime Time.
35:31
Speaker 1: the groundwork is being laid in Brazil for some shenanigans.
35:33
Speaker 1: Don't you think?
35:35
Speaker 10: I think so, David. And like you well said, this
35:39
Speaker 10: Brazil's the less piece, the less domino piece, but it's
35:43
Speaker 10: a big piece, man, because with all these wins that
35:47
Speaker 10: you well mentioned, half of South America is still on
35:50
Speaker 10: the hands of the left. Brazil is half of South
35:54
Speaker 10: America in terms of GDP population and territory. So it's,
35:59
Speaker 10: It's a very important piece, let's put it this way.
36:02
Speaker 10: And like you well said, the race is neck and neck.
36:07
Speaker 10: Just today, a new Atlas Intel poll was released showing
36:11
Speaker 10: both of them tied up on 47% on the run up.
36:17
Speaker 10: But as you know, polls are usually a little biased
36:21
Speaker 10: towards the left, same in Brazil as in the United States.
36:25
Speaker 10: And even the pollsters are usually very aligned with the left. Like,
36:29
Speaker 10: for example, there's a pollster in Brazil called Quest, which
36:33
Speaker 10: would be like CNN poll in the United States. And
36:36
Speaker 10: they're showing Flavio ahead by one point. So you can
36:39
Speaker 10: imagine if Donald Trump was ahead by one point on
36:41
Speaker 10: a CNN poll, it would mean in real life like
36:44
Speaker 10: he's ahead five points. And that's why you're seeing the
36:48
Speaker 10: prediction marketing websites increasing. such as Polymarket, showing Flavio with
36:55
Speaker 10: 60% chance of winning. It's still to be decided, but
37:01
Speaker 10: the campaign, I have been talking to the campaign almost
37:04
Speaker 10: every day and just had lunch with one of the members,
37:07
Speaker 10: and they're pretty confident that Flavio has a big chance.
37:10
Speaker 1: So now talk about why Lula is, I mean, I
37:13
Speaker 1: have my theory, why Lula is pulling those prediction markets down.
37:18
Speaker 1: out of Brazil and basically censor him. He likes to
37:20
Speaker 1: censor things he doesn't like. What would be his interest
37:23
Speaker 1: in censoring those prediction markets?
37:26
Speaker 10: Well, everything was just fine until in the past two weeks,
37:33
Speaker 10: Flavio started to become the favorite to win the election.
37:37
Speaker 10: And then suddenly, oh, we can't have those prediction websites
37:43
Speaker 10: in the country anymore, so let's ban them. So the
37:45
Speaker 10: funny thing is that I'm in the U.S., so I
37:48
Speaker 10: can still access them, and I've been posting them on
37:51
Speaker 10: my ex just to piss off the Brazilian government a
37:54
Speaker 10: little bit more like I haven't enough. But this is
37:59
Speaker 10: just part. Brazil is not under the rule of law anymore.
38:03
Speaker 10: They will try anything in their playbook, in the international playbook,
38:08
Speaker 10: to stop Flavio from winning. And I'm afraid this is
38:12
Speaker 10: just the tip of the iceberg of what they will do.
38:15
Speaker 1: Well, what else have you heard coming out of Brazil
38:17
Speaker 1: about what the Lula government might do in order to
38:20
Speaker 1: just get ahead of any result they don't like? I mean, obviously,
38:24
Speaker 1: we saw what happened after the last election. Have you
38:27
Speaker 1: heard anything that's sort of groundwork that's being laid now
38:29
Speaker 1: in addition to censoring some of this polling?
38:33
Speaker 5: Unfortunately, yes.
38:34
Speaker 10: They have been talking about interference from international powers such
38:39
Speaker 10: as the United States. They even mentioned.
38:42
Speaker 10: Ex-posts from U.S. government members or people associated with the
38:48
Speaker 10: Trump administration, such as such as our colleague Matt Gaetz
38:53
Speaker 10: was posting about it on the other day or Jason Miller.
38:56
Speaker 10: And they have been saying that since there's international interference
39:01
Speaker 10: going on, they might not accept the election results. They're
39:05
Speaker 10: not saying it openly yet, but the trial balloon is out.
39:09
Speaker 10: Supreme Court justices have been saying, oh, there's an election
39:12
Speaker 10: interference going on, we can't trust the process. They're asking
39:16
Speaker 10: for the president of the Supreme Court, of the Superior
39:20
Speaker 10: Electoral Court, which was a justice appointed by Bolsonaro, to
39:23
Speaker 10: resign today. So they're trying, and like I said, it's
39:26
Speaker 10: a trial balloon, but there have been more and more
39:29
Speaker 10: rumors about them challenging the election results, which is hilarious
39:34
Speaker 10: if you think about it. But it's not going to
39:38
Speaker 10: be the first. You saw that in Colombia, Petro, Lula's friend,
39:43
Speaker 10: tried to do the exact same thing. The only reason
39:45
Speaker 10: why he didn't succeed is because he couldn't. In Brazil,
39:50
Speaker 10: Lula has a now powerful Supreme Court. And now, as
39:55
Speaker 10: you've been hearing, there are rumors that the Trump administration
39:58
Speaker 10: is considering, again, the Financial Times published a piece about
40:02
Speaker 10: it and other Brazilian newspapers. They're reconsidering sanctioning, again, Alexandre
40:10
Speaker 10: de Moraes, which is one of the main justices on
40:12
Speaker 10: the Brazilian Supreme Court, who is behind all this.
40:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a very interesting developing situation for all the
40:21
Speaker 1: reasons you just set forth. I mean, Trump is famously
40:24
Speaker 1: now known for the Don Roe Doctrine in strengthening the
40:28
Speaker 1: Western Hemisphere. As you mentioned, Brazil is the biggest piece
40:32
Speaker 1: in IN THIS PRIZE, AND IF BRAZIL GOES OUR WAY,
40:35
Speaker 1: AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL, THE WEST WILL BE
40:39
Speaker 1: AS STRONG AS IT POSSIBLY EVER HAS BEEN. AND THAT'S
40:42
Speaker 1: WHY THIS IS SO IMPORTANT FOR AMERICA, FOR TRADE, FOR SECURITY.
40:47
Speaker 1: BETWEEN GREENLAND NOW, WE JUST GOT THIS MILITARY OPPORTUNITY IN GREENLAND.
40:51
Speaker 1: THEN YOU TAKE SOUTH AMERICA, AND IT BECOMES PRO-TRUMP, PRO-AMERICA,
40:55
Speaker 1: AND OUR HEMISPHERE IS SAFE AND SECURE FROM A GROWINGLY
40:58
Speaker 1: DANGEROUS WORLD. Thank you so much for setting up the
41:02
Speaker 1: stakes and your expert analysis as.
41:03
Speaker 5: Always, Paulo.
41:05
Speaker 10: Thanks for having me.
41:06
Speaker 1: It's a pleasure. Still ahead, the record the media refuses
41:11
Speaker 1: to cover. Everything Melania Trump pulled off this week from
41:14
Speaker 1: the United Nations to the New York Stock Exchange. Her
41:17
Speaker 1: senior advisor, Mark Beckman, with all of her wins this
41:20
Speaker 1: week coming up next.

42:03
Speaker 1: The first lady of the United States is getting a
42:06
Speaker 1: lot of well-deserved attention this week, or at least she
42:09
Speaker 1: should be. After all, she has quietly put together one
42:13
Speaker 1: of the most consequential tenures of any first lady in
42:16
Speaker 1: modern memory. Most of it, well, you probably haven't heard
42:19
Speaker 1: about because it doesn't fit the story the fake news
42:22
Speaker 1: wants to tell you about the Trump family. Now, in
42:24
Speaker 1: the past, we've talked on this show about about the
42:27
Speaker 1: First Lady's efforts to reunite children separated by the war
42:30
Speaker 1: between Russia and Ukraine, bringing kids caught in that war
42:33
Speaker 1: back to their families. It's work worthy of a Nobel Prize.
42:38
Speaker 1: And the president gave her a well-earned shout-out for it
42:41
Speaker 1: in his own speech at the United Nations yesterday. Look.
42:45
Speaker 8: I also want to recognize the extraordinary work of our
42:48
Speaker 8: great First Lady, who has secured the safe return of
42:52
Speaker 8: many displaced Ukrainian and Russian children back home to their families,
42:57
Speaker 8: so many. Thank you very much, First Lady.
43:01
Speaker 5: Thank you very much. Where is our First Lady?
43:04
Speaker 1: Where is she?
43:06
Speaker 8: She's around here someplace. Can you imagine I can't see
43:08
Speaker 8: the First Lady?
43:11
Speaker 5: Thank you very much, First Lady.
43:13
Speaker 1: Then yesterday, she herself stood at the United Nations in
43:17
Speaker 1: front of the representatives of 57 nations. She expanded a
43:21
Speaker 1: coalition she built from the ground up called Fostering the
43:24
Speaker 1: Future Together. First spouses from all over the world united
43:28
Speaker 1: around a single mission, giving children everywhere the tools of
43:31
Speaker 1: technology and education and teaching them how to use those
43:35
Speaker 1: tools wisely.
43:36
Speaker 10: Look.
43:37
Speaker 11: We are living in an extraordinary moment in human history.
43:41
Speaker 11: We stand together at the threshold of a technological revolution.
43:49
Speaker 11: Ideas once confined to science fiction novels and films has
43:54
Speaker 11: become part of our everyday reality. What once seemed impossible
44:00
Speaker 11: is becoming ordinary. But access alone is not empowerment. We
44:06
Speaker 11: must give our children the tools and teach them how
44:10
Speaker 11: to use those tools wisely.
44:13
Speaker 1: And she brought the most powerful companies on earth with
44:16
Speaker 1: her to do it. Google, Amazon, Intel, Adobe, Zoom, Starlink,
44:20
Speaker 1: with Tim Cook of Apple in the room. Real commitments,
44:24
Speaker 1: real money, including $ 4 million from Google alone to train teachers.
44:28
Speaker 1: This coalition? IS HER CREATION EARLIER THIS YEAR. SHE BROUGHT
44:32
Speaker 1: ITS MEMBERS TO THE WHITE HOUSE FOR THE LARGEST GATHERING
44:35
Speaker 1: OF FIRST SPOUSES EVER HOSTED THERE FOR A DIPLOMATIC PURPOSE
44:38
Speaker 1: IN AMERICAN HISTORY. AND YESTERDAY AT THE UNITED NATIONS, SHE
44:42
Speaker 1: GREW IT TO 57 NATIONS. AND THAT IS ONLY THE
44:46
Speaker 1: GLOBAL STAGE, BY THE WAY, OF WHAT She has spent
44:51
Speaker 1: years fighting for the children this country's system too often forgets,
44:55
Speaker 1: America's foster youth. Her program, Fostering the Future, it's not
44:58
Speaker 1: a photo op. It's a scholarship network that now spans
45:02
Speaker 1: 26 colleges and universities, from Vanderbilt to Ohio State to
45:05
Speaker 1: Indiana to Purdue. Real scholarships for kids aging out of
45:08
Speaker 1: foster care with no one standing behind them. She secured
45:11
Speaker 1: $ 30 million in the federal budget for housing so those
45:14
Speaker 1: young people are not put out onto the street the
45:16
Speaker 1: day they turned 18. And this year, she launched the
45:19
Speaker 1: first savings and investment accounts ever created specifically for foster youth,
45:24
Speaker 1: so a child who grew up with nothing can start building.
45:27
Speaker 1: She backed the effort with an executive order and championed
45:30
Speaker 1: legislation to make it last. And then today.
45:33
Speaker 5: She.
45:33
Speaker 1: Walked onto the floor of the New York Stock Exchange,
45:37
Speaker 1: rang the opening bell, and launched something brand new called Imperia.
45:43
Speaker 1: It's a network of the most powerful women in American business.
45:47
Speaker 1: CEOs and executives built to move capital, open doors, and
45:51
Speaker 1: lift women up across every industry. Some are already calling
45:54
Speaker 1: it Davos for women. She built that, too. So put
45:58
Speaker 1: the whole record together. Children brought home from war. The
46:01
Speaker 1: world's children championed at the United Nations by a coalition
46:05
Speaker 1: of 60 nations. America's foster kids given scholarships, housing, and
46:09
Speaker 1: a future. And now the most powerful women in business
46:12
Speaker 1: brought together to help each other rise. All of it
46:15
Speaker 1: from one first lady. The ambassador to the United Nations
46:18
Speaker 1: said this week that Melania Trump may go down as
46:21
Speaker 1: one of the most accomplished first ladies in the history
46:24
Speaker 1: of this country. Look at that record. He's right. This
46:28
Speaker 1: is Nobel Prize caliber work. And the fake news gives
46:32
Speaker 1: it nowhere near the airtime it deserves. That's why we
46:36
Speaker 1: do it here on OAN. Joining me now to discuss
46:39
Speaker 1: is senior advisor to the first lady, Mark Beckman. Welcome back,
46:42
Speaker 1: David Pollak, primetime.
46:43
Speaker 6: I mean.
46:44
Speaker 1: Where does she have time to do anything else? She's
46:47
Speaker 1: probably the busiest First Lady, right?
46:49
Speaker 12: Well, let's admit it. This First Lady is unique. She's
46:53
Speaker 12: the hardest-working person I know, and the record speaks for itself.
46:58
Speaker 5: It's undeniable that she.
47:00
Speaker 12: Is the most single, most consequential First Lady in modern history.
47:06
Speaker 12: No First Lady in our lifetime has created new legislation,
47:11
Speaker 12: worked with the Treasury Department to create savings and investment accounts,
47:15
Speaker 12: created a global coalition of 50 member nations.
47:20
Speaker 5: More than that, 60. We're up to like almost 60 now.
47:23
Speaker 5: She's going to go down.
47:25
Speaker 12: In history as changing people's lives. And that's what's important, David.
47:29
Speaker 12: She's focused and she's going to continue to build.
47:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she does continue to build. Now, today, obviously,
47:37
Speaker 1: that coalition of women in business, you look at the left, right?
47:41
Speaker 1: The left talks about championing women, and they make the
47:43
Speaker 1: conservatives and the Trump administration seem like they're anti-women, anti-this, anti-that.
47:48
Speaker 1: Melania single-handedly is doing more to empower women with just
47:52
Speaker 1: what she did today. Can you talk about what she's
47:54
Speaker 1: doing with this initiative?
47:56
Speaker 12: Imperia is incredible. The first lady is opening her lens
47:59
Speaker 12: a little further. Remember, she's a businessperson. She created the
48:03
Speaker 12: number one movie. She's got the number one book. She's
48:06
Speaker 12: got a collection of jewelry. And she's been in the
48:09
Speaker 12: skincare business, ornaments. She's a business person, maybe even first.
48:15
Speaker 12: And as a result, she saw a real need to
48:17
Speaker 12: galvanize women across the globe. The most powerful women today, David,
48:23
Speaker 12: all came down to the capital of global finance, the
48:25
Speaker 12: New York Stock Exchange, and joined our first lady to
48:29
Speaker 12: put together this new movement to empower women together. And
48:33
Speaker 12: what she called for is not mentorship. She called for action.
48:37
Speaker 12: She said that people should collaborate, people should own, doors
48:41
Speaker 12: should swing open for the next generation, not with references,
48:45
Speaker 12: but jobs and capital markets. And she explained how powerful
48:50
Speaker 12: women together could be, not just to benefit females individually,
48:54
Speaker 12: but the entire world. We had leaders from Bank of America,
48:58
Speaker 12: We had leaders from Clear. We had leaders from Anthem.
49:02
Speaker 12: Private equity funds.
49:03
Speaker 5: It goes on and on. It's incredible.
49:05
Speaker 12: Lisa Su from AMD, her business just yesterday crossed the
49:10
Speaker 12: $ 1 trillion threshold, arguably one of the most important CEOs,
49:14
Speaker 12: male or female, on the planet.
49:17
Speaker 5: And Lisa Su sat there.
49:18
Speaker 12: She rang the bell with her and sat there with
49:21
Speaker 12: her to launch, after the first lady's keynote, to launch
49:25
Speaker 12: the speaking series.
49:26
Speaker 5: So it was an incredible day.
49:28
Speaker 12: And Imperia is going to, I think, reach every corner
49:32
Speaker 12: of the universe and empower women in a way, women
49:35
Speaker 12: in business, in a way that they need. Think about it, David.
49:38
Speaker 12: Can you mention one powerful CEO, female leader, that's the
49:43
Speaker 12: champion for all female business leaders today? Melania is going
49:47
Speaker 12: to fill that void now.
49:49
Speaker 1: That is amazing. And now, also talk about Fostering the
49:52
Speaker 1: Future Together, because this is an outgrowth of Fostering the Future,
49:55
Speaker 1: which is an amazing program and very successful already. Now,
49:59
Speaker 1: this is really good.
50:00
Speaker 5: I'm sorry. It's really important.
50:02
Speaker 12: The First Lady created this global coalition to empower children
50:06
Speaker 12: through technology and entertainment. Yesterday, she made three big, big announcements.
50:11
Speaker 12: The first is she showed that the membership, which is,
50:14
Speaker 12: by the way, all vetted by the State Department, is
50:17
Speaker 12: expanding significantly. She welcomed new nations like the Philippines, like
50:21
Speaker 12: the Republic of Korea. Major nations are coming on board
50:25
Speaker 12: to support children worldwide. The second thing that the First
50:28
Speaker 12: Lady announced is that we have incredible events planned all
50:33
Speaker 12: over the world for Fostering the Future Together before the
50:37
Speaker 12: end of 2026.
50:39
Speaker 5: G20, which she'll be hosting.
50:41
Speaker 12: The ASEAN conference hosted by Ms. Marcos from the Philippines.
50:47
Speaker 12: ASEAN is going to be huge. It's in Manila. Poland
50:50
Speaker 12: will be doing a 20-country European Fostering the Future Together
50:54
Speaker 12: event in November. And then our friend, the First Lady
50:58
Speaker 12: of St. Kitts and Nevis, she's going to be running
51:01
Speaker 12: a regional event for all of the Caribbean nations. Now,
51:04
Speaker 12: what's interesting about these events is They're all empowering children.
51:07
Speaker 5: The private sector is lining up.
51:10
Speaker 12: And as a result of it, we're going to have
51:12
Speaker 12: more and more upswing, upswell, as it relates.
51:15
Speaker 5: To membership for fostering the future together.
51:17
Speaker 12: And the final piece is she brought in some great,
51:21
Speaker 12: great private sector partnerships. So we have private sector partnerships
51:25
Speaker 12: that are spreading all over the world, empowering children, companies
51:28
Speaker 12: like you saw in video last week in North Carolina.
51:31
Speaker 12: But this week, she announced more partnership with Adobe, with Google,
51:34
Speaker 12: with Zoom. really best-in-class partners.
51:37
Speaker 5: All over the world.
51:39
Speaker 12: So that's what Fostering the Future Together is about. And
51:42
Speaker 12: to your point, this is Melania Trump's vision, and it's
51:45
Speaker 12: picking up steam, and it's going to last beyond this administration.
51:48
Speaker 12: It's an important initiative for the children, the next generation
51:52
Speaker 12: of the world.
51:53
Speaker 1: Empowering women in business, empowering children, being a leader globally
51:58
Speaker 1: in all these initiatives. I mean, look, we got a
52:01
Speaker 1: home run with President Trump. I think we got a
52:03
Speaker 1: grand slam with the First Lady. Mark, thank you so
52:07
Speaker 1: much for being here as always. It is always a pleasure.
52:10
Speaker 1: Keep up the great work.
52:11
Speaker 5: David, I appreciate it.
52:12
Speaker 12: Just in closing, one thing. The First Lady is consistently
52:17
Speaker 12: putting people above ideology, putting people above geography. So with
52:23
Speaker 12: Fostering the Future together, it's incredible because you see her
52:26
Speaker 12: domestically putting the kids above red and blue.
52:29
Speaker 5: And internationally, it's the same thing.
52:31
Speaker 12: The room yesterday was filled with powerful leaders from all
52:35
Speaker 12: over the planet, from Africa, from Asia, from the Middle East,
52:39
Speaker 12: from Europe, from North America, all the way across the globe.
52:43
Speaker 12: And it's incredible that they're all getting behind our first
52:46
Speaker 12: lady's leadership.
52:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and it's such an important point, and
52:50
Speaker 1: a whole other segment could be dedicated to this. I
52:53
Speaker 1: don't think President Trump or Melania Trump look at anything
52:56
Speaker 1: they do as, oh, this is going to help Republicans.
52:58
Speaker 1: President Trump does things to benefit Americans. Melania Trump, she
53:02
Speaker 1: pursues efforts to help all children, all women. And that's
53:06
Speaker 1: so important because the media tends to shove all the
53:08
Speaker 1: efforts coming out of this White House into some sort
53:11
Speaker 1: of partisan box. But this is the president and the
53:13
Speaker 1: first lady for all Americans and all the world. And
53:16
Speaker 1: it's an important point you just made. Mark Beckman, thank
53:18
Speaker 1: you so much for being here as always.
53:20
Speaker 5: Great to be here. Thank you so much.
53:21
Speaker 1: Thank you. Well, that is our show for tonight. Be
53:25
Speaker 1: sure to tune in tomorrow night. We're taking a closer
53:27
Speaker 1: look at this new release of UAP files and apparently
53:32
Speaker 1: a CIA operation that looked through 23andMe to see if
53:36
Speaker 1: there was alien DNA in the population. It's a crazy story.
53:39
Speaker 1: You're not going to want to miss it. And as always,
