1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: So we've been talking about exposing government ways fraud and abuse. 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 1: That's what Elon Musk and Dooje is doing. But just 3 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,480 Speaker 1: how corrupt is our government? Well, they've been giving millions 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: of dollars to media organizations outside of MPR. They clearly 5 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 1: have been writing stories to attack conservatives, the MAGA movement, 6 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Yesterday, there was an email that went out 7 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: to Politico's employees, sent sent it to them yesterday, and 8 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: Politico's management blamed the people at Politico not getting paid 9 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: yesterday on a glitch. Not there government gravy train stopping 10 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: the flow of the cash coming in. Now, I want 11 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: to read for you what the email apparently says. It says, 12 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: Dear team Gully and I want to address this morning's 13 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: payroll issues Directly, due to what we believe was a 14 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: technical error, employees did not receive their paychecks as scheduled. 15 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: We understand the urgency of this matter and sincerely apologize 16 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: for the inconvenience. Yeah, not getting paid, Yeah, it's an inconvenience, 17 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: that's for sure. Our team is working diligently with our 18 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: systems of vendors and the bank to identify the cause 19 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: and implement a solution as quickly as possible. We will 20 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: keep you updated as we learn more and work to 21 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: resolve the problem as quick as possible.

If you have any immediate concerns, 23 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: please please feel free to reach out directly. Now, that's 24 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: what they said. Whether this is because the gravy train 25 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: has been turned off or not, I don't know. But 26 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: here's what I do know. Politico, which is a quote 27 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: legitimate news company quote unquote, a news company. They're not 28 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: a nonprofit, They're no INNGO, they're not a government agency 29 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: which has spent the last decade destroying Donald Trump, the 30 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: MAGA movement, anybody associated with him, just trying to, you know, 31 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: help lock up people and saying that the insurrections around 32 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: you know, January sixth, are the worst people in the world, right, 33 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: Like all those types of stories. We now have found 34 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: out that they have been massively subsidized funded by USAID. 35 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: Donald Trump and Elon Musk said, we're stopping that funding. 36 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: The question now is will Politico go out of business 37 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: because of the amount of money we've been giving them. 38 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: Now the total award amount that we're talking about here, 39 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: and you look at twenty twenty four. If I'm reading 40 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: this correctly, on the US spending dot Gov, there has 41 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: been a total of at least eight point two million 42 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: dollars of your tax dollars going to Politico in the 43 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: form of two hundred and thirty seven transactions. Now below that, 44 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: there's another category. If you go to US spending dot gov, 45 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: face value of loans zero dollars from zero transactions. So 46 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: these are not loans. This is just straight up money 47 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: that is going to subsidize Politico. Eight point two million 48 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: dollars of your tax dours that went to them. I 49 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: think we can all agree that your tax dours should 50 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: not be going to Politico. Now, let's go back to 51 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: one of the core headlines in Politico that you need 52 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: to know about to put it in perspective what you've 53 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: been paying for, like the journalism you've been subsidizing. The 54 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: federal money started pouring into Politico, and it actually increased 55 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: exponentially after they successfully laundered the deep state CIA election 56 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: rigging propaganda against Donald Trump. The headline that I want 57 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: to bring up to prove this is their national security 58 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: headline that Politico ran. This is what they said. Okay, 59 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: and again the amount of the federal funds that began 60 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: pouring into Politico in increase exponentially after this story. You 61 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: ready for it, Hunter Biden's story is Russian disinfo. Dozens 62 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: of former intel officials say this is under national security. 63 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: Politico then their byline below that reads this way, more 64 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: than fifty former intelligence officials signed a letter casting doubt 65 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: on this New York Post story on the former vice 66 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: president's son, paraphrasing, So you got Politico that writes a 67 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: article that is a lie, and it's a lie that 68 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: they were willing to sell on behalf of the Democratic 69 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: Party and the fifty former intelligence visuals who, by the way, 70 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: I've lost their security clearance and we know they lied 71 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: to us, and they were willing to tell you the 72 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden story was Russian disinfo and it wasn't real. 73 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: And then after they write that article, the federal government 74 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: through USAI is like, oh, hey, political we'd love to 75 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: send you a bunch of money, like millions of dollars. 76 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: You guys are doing great work. We want to keep 77 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: the money flowing in. This is maybe the biggest scandal 78 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: about the corrupt media that I've ever seen. The only 79 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: thing worse in political interference is government taxpayer funded election interference. 80 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: That is what was paid for. To Politico, it was 81 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: government taxpayer funded election interference. There was a real story, 82 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: the new was real story. Politico wrote a storytelling you 83 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: it's not real. It's Russian dis info. Fifty intelligence officers. 84 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: They didn't do They just they just went with it. 85 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: You know, governments saying this is what we need you 86 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: to write. They're like, we got it, We'll do it. 87 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: And then the government said, here's your payoff eight point 88 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: two million dollars. Politico then spent years after that attacking 89 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: conservatives the MAGA movement, and the money kept going up. 90 00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: So the more they attacked conservatives and the mag movement, 91 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: the more money they were given from the government. There's 92 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 1: also something else that was interesting. Politico apparently received and 93 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: a lot of this is coming for the website, so 94 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 1: I'm just giving it to you. They received eight hundred 95 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: and sixty two thousand dollars in change from the National 96 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: Park Service in a no compete subscription contract over four years. 97 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: You want to know why Democrats are so anxious overdoge 98 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: because they were buying the press to attack US President 99 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: Trump back to what he was saying about government waste 100 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: and abuse and fraud. He's got something to say now 101 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: about what they're doing with a big project that hasn't happened, 102 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: the high speed rail project in California. Now, I want 103 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: to play it for you in just a second, but 104 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: first we want to tell you about our friends over 105 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: at Patriot Mobile. While we may have won the election, 106 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: the fight to restore a great nation is only beginning, 107 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: and now is the time for you to take a 108 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: stand with your dollars. And Patriot Mobile is leading the 109 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: charge with conservative companies that are fighting back.

President Trump back to what he 135 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: was saying about government waste and abuse and fraud. The 136 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: President saying this and the Oval Office. 137 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: One of the things I want to investigate rapidly because 138 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: I've never seen anything to this extent. The trend that's 139 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: being built between Los Angeles and San Francisco is the 140 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 2: worst managed project I think I've ever seen, and I've 141 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: seen some of the worst. Billions and billion. It's hundreds 142 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: of billions of dollars over budget. In fact, I read 143 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: where you could take every single person that was going 144 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 2: to go on the train and get the finest limousine 145 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 2: service in the world and take them back and forth 146 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 2: with limousines, and you'd have hundreds of millions of dollars 147 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: left over. It is the worst thing, And we're going 148 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 2: to start an investigation of that, because it's not possible. 149 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 2: I built for a living, and I built on time, 150 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 2: on budget. It's impossible that something could cost that much. 151 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 2: And now it's not even going to San Francisco, and 152 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 2: it's not going to Los Angeles. It's they made it 153 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 2: much shorter, so now it's at little places way away 154 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 2: from San Francisco and way away from Los Angeles. No, 155 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 2: we're going to start a big investigation on that because 156 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: it's I've never seen anything like it. Nobody has ever 157 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 2: seen anything like it. The worst overruns that there have 158 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 2: ever been in the history of our country. 159 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: The worst overruns we've ever seen in our country. Now, 160 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: he's right, this, this is insane. I built for a living, 161 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,119 Speaker 1: he said, I built on time on budget, It's impossible 162 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: that something could cost us much. So how much corruption 163 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: is there? And the headlines in California are very clear. 164 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: Despite some progress, the state's high speed rail is one 165 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 1: hundred billion short and many years from reality. Okay, So 166 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: if that is the case, what happened to the money? 167 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: Where did it go? Donald Trump making it clear that 168 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: this is a problem because our tax dollars continue to 169 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: go to waste, fraud, and abuse. You'll look at all 170 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: of the money that we're finding out where it's going, 171 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 1: and I think what we're going to find out is 172 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: even more corruption. We also have been told that there 173 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: may even be movie stars that were paid by us 174 00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: AID to go around the world, movie stars like big money. 175 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 1: That is some of it's coming out right now, Like 176 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: this is some of the corruption. And you go back 177 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: to Politico for example, and the corruption with media and 178 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: the AP getting money from USAID's subsidizing their attacks on conservatives. 179 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: White House Press Secretary was asked about that today. 180 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 3: So upon coming out here to the briefing room, I 181 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 3: was made aware of the funding from USAID to media outlets, 182 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 3: including Politico, who I know has a seat in this room, 183 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 3: and I can confirm that the more than eight million 184 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 3: taxpayer dollars that have gone to essentially subsidizing subscriptions to Politico, 185 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 3: the American taxpayer's dying will no longer be happening. The 186 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 3: Doge team is working on canceling those payments. Now again, 187 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 3: this is a whole of government effort to ensure that 188 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 3: we are going line by line when it comes to 189 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 3: the federal of government's books, and this president and his 190 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 3: team are are making decisions across the board on do 191 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 3: these receipts serve the interests of the American people. Is 192 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 3: this a good use of the American taxpayer's money. If 193 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: it is not, that funding will no longer be sent 194 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 3: abroad and American taxpayers will see significant savings because of 195 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 3: that effort. 196 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: One of the things in a word that she just 197 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: used there, but one of the things you noticed here 198 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: she said eight million dollars on subscriptions to Politico online logins, 199 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: that is subsidizing the media. Like there's no way that 200 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: this isn't just pure corruption. And if you're if eight 201 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: million dollars is what you're on the take from the 202 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: federal government to then trash the opponent of the people 203 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: that are in charge. They're giving this money. That is 204 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: pay to pay propaganda. This is state sponsored propaganda. It's 205 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: what I've been telling you has been happening with the 206 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: media for a long time. This is state sponsored propaganda. 207 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: We're also being told that The New York Times is 208 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: being government funded as well. The US government gave the 209 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: New York Times tens of millions of dollars just over 210 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: the past five years, despite paying relatively little money to 211 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: The New York Times in the past years preceding twenty 212 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: twenty one. What happened. They started going after Donald Trump 213 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: and anyone around them that they said take them out. 214 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: Like again, this is state sponsored is it? I'm not 215 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: even sure it's state sponsored media. It's a hit list. 216 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: We're gonna pay you to take down and tear down 217 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: the other side. Like that's a hit list. It's like 218 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: assassinations on a conservative party. We want you to get 219 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: rid of these people from the norm We want you 220 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: to turn them into racist, bigots and homophobes. Right, Well, 221 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: that's what the government's been doing, that's what they've been 222 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: paying for. So let's talk about New York Times. Apparently 223 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: tens of millions of dollars over the past five years. 224 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: In August twenty twenty four, the US government awarded another 225 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: There are four point one million dollars to The New 226 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: York Times. The bulk of the funds came from the 227 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: US Department of Health and Human Services at twenty six 228 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: point nine million, followed by the National Science Foundation at 229 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: nineteen point one million dollars. These payments that we're finding 230 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: out that went to The New York Times are just 231 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: paid a play. Let me give you another example. National 232 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: Aeronautics and Space Administration is paid three point eight two million. 233 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: I wonder how many negative articles The New York Times 234 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: has written or positive articles they've written about any space 235 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: program that liberals wanted. The Department of Commerce, I think 236 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: they've got any bad articles written about them for The 237 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: New York Times. No, because they paid them two and 238 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: a half million dollars of your money in twenty I 239 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: mean this is twenty twenty four. DoD paid two point 240 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: three four million to The New York Times, the Department 241 00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: of Treasury half a million, the SEC for three hundred 242 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: and forty four thousand, the DOJ more than a quarter million, 243 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: State Department more than two hundred thousand, and the Department 244 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: of Veterans Affairs one hundred and seventy seven thousand. I 245 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: wonder how many stories got killed that would have made 246 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: the Department of Veterans Affairs look bad. This is the 247 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: government saying, we're gonna prop you up as long as 248 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: you write the stories we need you to write. We 249 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: need you to write pro Ukraine stories. We need you 250 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: to write anti Trump stories, we need you to write 251 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: anti elon Musk propaganda. Now it all makes a lot 252 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: of sense, right, because we have an unlimited amount of 253 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: money to throw around. That's what the government was saying 254 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: to the New York Times, Politico, the Associated Press, and 255 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: the timeline clearly also lines up when the war in 256 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: Ukraine began. So the US government said, hey, we want 257 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: you to sell the propaganda that this war with Ukraine 258 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: is good for America, for us to stand with them 259 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: and send them onlimited funds. And all of these organizations 260 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: started writing the pro Ukraine stories right, and propping up Zolenski, 261 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: not talking about corruption, not talking about the fraud and 262 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: abuse of your dollars that are going there. And so 263 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: we paid, or the government your dollars paid the New 264 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: York Times to write articles talking about how great Zelensky is, 265 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: and why your money should go there and why you 266 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: should stand with them. Let me give you another example 267 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: of how bad the money is. Zelensky is now claiming 268 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: that Ukraine received less than half of the US aid 269 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: that we have sent to the country. So where to go, Well, 270 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: it went to corrupt oligarchs and people around Zelensky, I 271 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: have no doubt about that. He's claiming he doesn't know 272 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: where all the money went. The Ukrainian president has said 273 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: that his country has only received seventy eight billion in 274 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: aid from the United States, despite America authorizing one hundred 275 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: and seventy five billion to support the war torn countries. 276 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: To be clear, Zolensky saying, you guys send US one 277 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars and we don't know where it went. 278 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: In this interview with the Associated Press, which is sponsored 279 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 1: by our government state sponsored propaganda, we've been paying the 280 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: Associated Press millions of dollars. They published this interview over 281 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: the weekend, Zelensky says he doesn't know where most of 282 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: the money the United States allocated under the Biden administration 283 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: to Ukraine has gone. When I hear both in the 284 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,239 Speaker 1: past and even now from the US that America has 285 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 1: provided Ukraine with hundreds of billions as the president of 286 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: a nation at war, Zelensky said, I can tell you 287 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: we actually received only about seventy five billion. He said. 288 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: We're talking about tangible things because this a didn't come 289 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: as cash, but rather as weapons, which amount to about 290 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: seventy billions. So we're missing one hundred billion. But when 291 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: it's said that Ukraine received two hundred billions, Zelensky says 292 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 1: to support the army during the war, that's not true. 293 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: I don't know where all that money went. Zelensky admitted. 294 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 1: Perhaps it's true on paper, with hundreds of different programs. 295 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: Lelensky said, I won't argue. So he's admitting one hundred 296 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: billion just disappeared, and we're immensely grateful for everything. But 297 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: in reality, we just received seventy eight excuse me, seventy 298 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: six billion, not two hundred billion and eight. The Ukrainian 299 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: leader suggested that perhaps the additional funds went to quote 300 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: humanitarian programs. That's the easiest way to funnel money to 301 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: his rich oligarch friends, many of them that are in 302 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: warsaw hanging out in five star hotels. Many of the 303 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: richest in Ukraine and the government and the oligarchs in 304 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: Ukraine don't live in Ukraine right now. Their families are 305 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: in Warsaw, in five star hotels and villas. How are 306 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: they paying for it? Follow the humanitarian programs is what 307 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: I would say. He says he was informed about except 308 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: for knowing of their existence, but he doesn't know how 309 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 1: much money went into those programs. And then Zelensky said this, 310 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 1: Perhaps the US presidents administration will audit these programs and 311 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: find additional billions. But I don't know where those funds went. 312 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 1: I have one question. I wonder how much of that 313 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: money may have gone back to the Biden crime family. 314 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just asking for a bunch of 315 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: taxpayers in this country. You remember that company named Meta, 316 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: You know the company that owns Facebook. You know the 317 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: company that had no problem suspending the account of the 318 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: sitting president of United States of America back in twenty 319 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: twenty one, guy by the name of Donald Trump after 320 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: the insurrection at the Capitol. Of course, remember when that happened. Well, 321 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: there was a lawsuit around it. We now know who 322 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: is right and who was wrong. Metta is now agreeing 323 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: to pay millions to settle that Trump lawsuit over his 324 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: suspended accounts. So NBC News breaking the big news earlier 325 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: tonight that Meta has now agreed to pay Donald Trump 326 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: take a listen in. 327 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 4: Trump, We've learned has signed an agreement with Meta to 328 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 4: settle a lawsuit that he filed against the company for 329 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 4: suspending his account after the attack on the Capitol on 330 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 4: January sixth, four years ago. The settlement we understand to 331 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 4: be twenty five million dollars, most of which is going 332 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 4: towards his future presidential library. 333 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: This story first was reported. 334 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 4: By the Wall Street Journal. Meta says it has no 335 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 4: comment on that, but says they can confirm that twenty 336 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 4: two million dollar number to the Trump Library. Garrett Hayk 337 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 4: is at the White House. Garrett, this is so interesting 338 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 4: for a lot of reasons here, and I know you've 339 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 4: just confirmed this with some with some of your sources here. 340 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: It's our understanding. 341 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 4: I think that President Trump like signed this settlement that 342 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 4: has to do with Meta and the attack on the 343 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 4: Capitol sitting in the Oval office today. 344 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 5: Well, it looks like a lot of this was discussed, apparently, 345 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 5: according to Wall Street Journal sources, a detail that I've 346 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 5: yet to confirm. But hope to nail down shortly during 347 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 5: the time that he was being sentenced during the transition 348 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 5: on the New York City hush money case. So yeah, look, 349 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 5: the top line number here is extraordinary, twenty five million dollars. 350 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 5: Most of that money going to this that, as best 351 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 5: I can tell, doesn't actually exist yet for a future 352 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 5: Trump presidential library. You'll remember that that's what happened with 353 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 5: the defamation settlement that the President won against ABC and 354 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 5: ABC News. Sort of the start of funding this library 355 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 5: tends to be coming from these lawsuits at the president. 356 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: By the way, can we just pause and just celebrate 357 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 1: the fact that the Trump Presidential Library is in essence 358 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: going to be built by the media that lied to him, 359 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: lied about him, slandered him, and threw these lawsuits where 360 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: he's like, all right, we'll see in court. I mean, 361 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 1: you could say that this library is going to have 362 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: a what is it, a ABC wing, a Meta Facebook wing, 363 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: and there's others out there, by the way, but this 364 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: is a lot of money. Twenty two million going to 365 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: fund the Trump Presidential Library, and the balance dedicated legal 366 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: fees and other plaintiffs in the case. Now, Meta didn't 367 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: have to admit wrongdoing. I don't care if they admit 368 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: wrongdoing or not. We know why META is paying this 369 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:11,479 Speaker 1: money because they absolutely did something that was wrong. And 370 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: the CEO is now saying, all right, well, you're in charge, 371 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna hang out with you and come to 372 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: the inauguration and sit in the prime seat for the 373 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: swearing in, and then I'm gonna give you twenty five 374 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: million or twenty two million for your library. That's what 375 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,679 Speaker 1: we're doing here. This is, by the way, how you 376 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,360 Speaker 1: beat them. Donald Trump is going all in to hold 377 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: them accountable. He's not holding back. He's doing the same 378 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 1: thing with the government right now. He's doing the same 379 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: thing to make sure that people are held accountable for 380 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: the corruption in our government. When you're sending money by 381 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 1: the tens of millions to the media, so they write 382 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 1: stories about the left wing of the Democratic Party and 383 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: they attack their political opponents. This is what happens in Russia, 384 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: in Cuba and China. It should never happen in America. 385 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: Donald Trump getting rid of government waste, fraud, and abuse 386 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: through USA and other programs. We're now also hearing more 387 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: about the White House's plan for the US involvement in 388 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: the rebuilding efforts in Gaza. By the way, there's a 389 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 1: lot of people asking about, well, should we be doing it? 390 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: How much is it going to cost? Is that where 391 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: we want our money to be spent? The White House 392 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: saying the US involvement in rebuilding efforts does not mean 393 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: commitment of troops or taxpayer dollars in Gaza. They clarified 394 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: that earlier. The White House made it clear that the 395 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: US involvement in rebuilding Gaza does not mean a commitment 396 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 1: to send any troops there or using any of your 397 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 1: tax dollars for the effort. The White House pressing or 398 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 1: Terry Carolina Levitt filled it a question from NBC News's 399 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: senior White House correspondent early in the briefing, after Donald 400 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: Trump said Tuesday that the United States would take over 401 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: the Gaza Strip. Trump also said his vision included moving 402 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: gazins to nearby Arab nations, which Levitt said Wednesday would 403 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: be quote unquote temporary. They also said that Trump's vision 404 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: could intail boots on the ground in nation building. That 405 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: is how NBC News frame the question. What did Caroline 406 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: san response quote, I would reject the premise of your 407 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 1: question that this forces the United States to be entangled 408 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: in conflicts abroad. The President has not committed to putting 409 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: boots on the ground in Gaza. He has also said 410 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: that the United States is not going to pay for 411 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: rebuilding of Gaza. She had that the administration would work 412 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: with the Middle East allies to reconstruct this region. Levitt 413 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 1: also emphasized that while it may be an out of 414 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: the box idea, the American people like to Trump because 415 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: he thinks outside the box. Quote and let me just 416 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: take a step back here, because this is an out 417 00:24:56,040 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 1: of the box idea. That's who President Trump is. The 418 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: American people elected him, and his goal is lasting peace 419 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 1: in the Middle East for all people in the region. 420 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: She added that the American involvement means the President will 421 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: use his deal making prowess to strike a deal with 422 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: our partners in the region. Responding to a follow up question, 423 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: she also knows that the President has spoken to leaders 424 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 1: in the region about his expectations that particularly Egypt and 425 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,880 Speaker 1: Jordan will accept Palestinian refugees temporarily so they can rebuild 426 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: their homes. Trump has been mulling over the plan for 427 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: a while. She went on to say, including sin seeing 428 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: images of the well pure rubble that is Gaza right now, 429 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: from Special Envoy to the Middle East and the visit 430 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: to the region last month. According to White House Press Secretary, 431 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: so the media wanted you to think this was going 432 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: to be nation building, that we were going to like 433 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: own this, that we are going to be seeing troops, 434 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,439 Speaker 1: that we're going to be paying your tax dollars to 435 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,719 Speaker 1: actually do all this. The clear report now is that 436 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: is not the case, and the media is in fact 437 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,239 Speaker 1: lying to you. Now. There's also something else that came 438 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: out of this. Fun came out centern on meeting with 439 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: Netnahu's saying the Democrats' anti israel behavior will not deter 440 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: the US from supporting Israel. That was the message coming 441 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 1: from the Senate majority leader. And he will meet with 442 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: the Israeli Prime Minister tomorrow at the US Capitol. He said, 443 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: this meeting, which you hope, is about America and conveying 444 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: the importance of this US Israel ties and also to 445 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: deepen the peace talks in the region. Fun in an 446 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: interview said ahead of the meeting that he will convey 447 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: that to Netanyahu that despite Democrats in Congress, including particularly 448 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: in the US Senate, repeatedly finding themselves on the opposite 449 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: side of Israel, and that the United States is not 450 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: with them. The United States stands firmly with Israel, and 451 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: that's why Donald Trump was elected. Democrats, of course, recently 452 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: voted in the US Senate to take a plan to 453 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: sanction the Internet National Criminal Court known as the ICC. 454 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: Israel is the US's greatest ally in the Middle East, 455 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: and the Democrats this last year have been very divided 456 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: in supporting Israel throughout the conflict. Is what Thune said 457 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: to Breitbart News. They seem to find more things like 458 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: common cause with Hamas and some of these folks in 459 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: the region that are responsible for the October seventh attack. 460 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: If you recall this last summer, the last time Prime 461 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: Minster Netya, who was in the Capitol, there were a 462 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: lot of Democrats, including the Vice Vice President Harry, who 463 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: boycotted his appearance. This time, the Prime Minister's visit follows 464 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: the Democrats vote last week to prop an illegitimate court, 465 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 1: the ICC up because Democrats didn't want to defend Israel's 466 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: sovereignty or American troops who have been targeted by the 467 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: ICC in the past. So if and when they decide 468 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,479 Speaker 1: that they want to take real action to protect our 469 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 1: allies and prevent future targeting of American citizens. We're here 470 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: for that, then went on to say, but until then, 471 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: we're going to continue to do everything we can without 472 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: Democrats to defend our allies and also our nation. I 473 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: think tomorrow that will be revisited in the meeting with 474 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: the Prime Minister. Now, President Trump back in the White 475 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: House has made it clear that there are a lot 476 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: of Middle Eastern leaders from across the region that are 477 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: hopeful there is a pathway to peace. Donald Trump has 478 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: said he wants there to be peace. Donald Trump, as 479 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: we saw it in his first term through things like 480 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: the Abraham Accords. This is an individual that doesn't like war. 481 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,479 Speaker 1: This is the guy who says, I'm also fighting very 482 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: hard to end the war between Ukraine and Russia. And 483 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: so when you look at what the President is actually 484 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: trying to do, I think it's pretty darn clear. There's 485 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: also something else that was said in this interview and 486 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: then put it this way, so quote of course, Abraham Accords, 487 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: negotiated by President Trump in his first term, we're historic 488 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: in terms of some of the relationships they built out 489 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: in the region of the world. I think my focus 490 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: in this visit is in being a reliable, unwavering partner too, 491 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: and a friend of Israel, something that they did not 492 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: have clearly in the last administration. He went on to say, 493 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: we want to talk about getting all the hostages home 494 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: and how we support Israel as it works to end 495 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: once and for all the threats from Hamas Hesblah and 496 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: the hoodies. He went on to say that Iran and 497 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: its shadow of terror government in the region is another problem, 498 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: and we've got to make sure they can't expand we've 499 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: got to make sure we expand on the historic success 500 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: of the Abraham Accords to try to create a safer 501 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: and more prosperous future in that region. So he said, 502 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 1: this is what they're going to be talking about now. 503 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: To be clear, there's a lot of senators on Thursday 504 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: that are going to be meeting with Netnahu. Many of 505 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: them are also going to have on that many a 506 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: few that I know personally are going to be even 507 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: having one on one meetings with Netanyahu. And this is 508 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: I think a very big turning point in America's foreign policy. 509 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: What we're going to see here and what we're witnessing 510 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: is when you let Israel hang out to dry the 511 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: way that the last administration did for four years. And 512 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: then you see what happened on October the seventh, and 513 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,479 Speaker 1: then you see the Democratic Party still not backing Israel, 514 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: our most important ally in the region. There is going 515 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: to have to be something that changes moving forward. There 516 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: is going to be something that has to change for 517 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: them to know that, Look a, we trust America again, 518 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: be we know you stand with us and not against us, 519 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: which is what the last administration was doing. And so 520 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: this is I think a clear message of the world 521 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: from this Trump administration. Do not screw with our ally 522 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: because we have their back. We are not going to 523 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: let them be out there by themselves. The last administration 524 00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: did that, We're not. So you mess with Israel, you're 525 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: messing with America. I think that's part of the messaging 526 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: we're seeing here, and it's an important one. The second 527 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: one is we absolutely want there to be peace in the 528 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: Middle least and we're gonna work for that. We know 529 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:12,959 Speaker 1: there's gonna need to be rebuilding and we're gonna help 530 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: brok those deals. Is Amir gonna pay the whole bill 531 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: or part of the bill or a large part of 532 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: the Bill, probably not, but we're willing to sit down 533 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: and say for others in the region, like you need 534 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: to step up. This is your next door neighbor, this 535 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: is your uh, this is an area that you need 536 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: to be rebuilt. And unfortunately, the terrorists did this to themselves, 537 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: and many of the people that support the terrorists did 538 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: this to themselves. They lost their homes because they stood 539 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: with the terrorists. And that is also a reality of 540 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: the situation. But these meetings and standing there with net 541 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: Yahou and the way that the President talked with them 542 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: in the joint press conference and talking about a hope 543 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: in the future where there's peace, that's something everybody should 544 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: be excited about, Like everyone should be fired up for that. 545 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: They should be excited. I also think Yahu coming here 546 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: so quickly and being the first foreign leader to sit 547 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: down in this way with Donald Trump was no accident. 548 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: Donald Trump and Netanya who knew this needed to be 549 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: the first one. It needed to be a clear change 550 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: in America's foreign policy, a new warning to the rest 551 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: of the world. And also I think it's a very 552 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: clear message to the anti Semitic individuals in Congress that 553 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: your time being in the majority is over. Now, shut 554 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: up and sit down at the back of the room. Now. 555 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to do that, okay. I 556 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: think they're going to still be anti Semitic as they've 557 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: always been. I think the Squad's going to be anti 558 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: Semiticans they've always been. They'll probably get louder, and I 559 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: think you're going to have a lot of protesters on 560 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: college campuses that are going to stand with the terrorists 561 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: and stand against Americans and against Israel. That's going to happen, 562 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: but there may be real consequences for those actions. Now. 563 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: There wasn't before, but there's probably going to be real 564 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: consequences moving forward.
