He remains hospitalized in Rome. In another 5 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 1: top story, severe flooding has already wreaked havoc across Kentucky, 6 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 1: leading to over one thousand rescues. As emergency teams continue 7 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: to race to help people trapped by rising waters, at 8 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: least twelve people have died, with officials warning the death 9 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 1: toll may rise even further. 10 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 2: We also have new details surrounding the Delta Airlines plane 11 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 2: crash at Toronto Pearson International Airport. Take a look at 12 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: the footage as the plane flipped upside down, just very dramatic, 13 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 2: remarkable to see. As of this morning, Delta said nineteen 14 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: people have since been released from the hospital. Three people, 15 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 2: including a child, suffered critical but not life threatening injuries. 16 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: The cause of the crash does remain under investigation. 17 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: And also new today, an Inspector General audit found that 18 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,839 Speaker 1: the Social Security Administration mispaid seventy two billion dollars over 19 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: eight years. 20 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 3: There was an Inspector General audit last year that showed 21 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 3: over an eight year period, the Social Security Administration made 22 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 3: almost seventy two billion dollars in improper payments, a little 23 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 3: less than one percent of payments in that time period. Now, 24 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 3: the report also says that most of these improper payments 25 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: were over payments, not payments to decease. 26 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 4: People or people who. 27 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 3: Didn't qualify to receive these payments. At the same time, Jose, 28 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 3: this effort by DOZE is to go through this agency 29 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,639 Speaker 3: like every other and try to weed out waste and fraud. 30 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, and also seventy two billion. And that's 31 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 4: with that a comprehensive search. I mean, that's that's. 32 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: Seventy two billion. Well, for more on all this, let's 33 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: welcome in George Papadopolos, co host of Global View and 34 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: author of Deep State Target. How I got caught in 35 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: the crosshairs of the plot to bring down President Trump? George, 36 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: welcome to the show. 37 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 5: Thanks lot for having me. 38 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: Well, George, millions of people that are dead are receiving 39 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: payments according to this audit. How did this happen? How 40 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: did we let it get this bad off? 41 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 6: Well, look look at it. Just in a couple of weeks. 42 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 6: What DOGE is actually found usaid. Let's start with the 43 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 6: USA for a second. There are less than one percent 44 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 6: of the federal budget, and Doge and the Trump administration 45 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 6: found out that billions of dollars and taxpayer dollars were 46 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 6: being sent abroad for regime change and domestically to finance 47 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 6: and fund leftist ideology, to undermine conservative values traditions, and 48 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 6: to try to spread propaganda, disinformation, and misinformation against candidate Trump, 49 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 6: MAGA and the President of the United States of America. 50 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 6: That's exactly what the whole political scandal was all about. 51 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 6: Where our tax dollars are actually financing their own subscriptions. 52 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 6: Moving forward to this, this is just another example of 53 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 6: entitlement spending gone awry, wasted, and spent in an unwise 54 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 6: manner that has contributed to not only our evolving and 55 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 6: massive global public debts, but also it was going to 56 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 6: contribute to hard growing deficit that we're also going to 57 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 6: have with various other countries because it's affecting the domestic economy. 58 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 6: People who have been dead for decades years are. 59 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 5: Still receiving Social Security checks. 60 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 6: This has to stop, and if it wasn't for DOGE 61 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 6: and President Trump, This type of waste, corruption and government 62 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 6: spending would have continued unabated. The elites would have been 63 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 6: their pockets would have been lined up, and the working 64 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 6: man and woman in this country would have continued to suffer. 65 00:03:58,880 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 4: Absolutely. 66 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 2: I mean, it is really impressive to see how much 67 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 2: DOGE has been able to accomplish just in a few 68 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: weeks here. It's almost mind boggling that we're so overdue 69 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 2: for these types of audits. I do want to go 70 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 2: back to Social Security for a moment. We're seeing reports 71 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: that this morning the Social Security Commissioner has stepped down 72 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: from her role for refusing to give up sensitive information 73 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 2: to DOGE staffers. Do you expect that we're going to 74 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 2: see more high profile resignation soon as DOGE continues their 75 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 2: audits of federal agencies. 76 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 6: I think it's in the American it's in America's interest 77 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 6: to have government transparency and accountability. When you have high 78 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 6: profile directors or executives or political figures who are fighting 79 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 6: back against audits, against transparency, and against showcasing to the 80 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 6: American public where their taxpayers dollars are going, I think 81 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 6: that's a problem. 82 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 5: I think that's an insidious problem. 83 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 6: I think it's pernicious, and I think individuals like this 84 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 6: person who are fighting against the audit and a more 85 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,239 Speaker 6: transparency likely have something to hide. 86 00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 5: This is why DOGE is important. 87 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 6: This is exactly why Donald Trump is keen on appointing 88 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 6: patriotic Americans people who are there to serve the American 89 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 6: people and abide by the Constitution in critical roles, including 90 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 6: things like this, because when people were out there for 91 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 6: their own pocketbooks and not putting the American people first, 92 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 6: this is exactly what got us into the type of 93 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 6: economic crisis we're in right now and the type of 94 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 6: wasteful spending and corruption that is rampant throughout the government 95 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 6: system today. 96 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: And George on the same wavelength of dose. Let's get 97 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: your reaction to this. The White House has come out 98 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: with a statement clarifying Elon Musk's role, saying he is 99 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: a senior advisor to the President and is not an 100 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: employee of DOGE. Why do you think that Elon Musk's 101 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 1: proximity to the president is raising so many questions? 102 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 6: Ellen Musk is just another type of person, patriotic person 103 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 6: who did not need this job. He's a billionaire, he 104 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 6: was living a wonderful life running probably the most successful 105 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 6: private company in the entire world. Just like President Trump, 106 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 6: who had an incredibly successful company, wonderful family, billionaire enjoying 107 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 6: his life, he did not need to be president of 108 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 6: the United States of America. So I think it's exactly 109 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 6: because President and Trump banel On Musk are outsiders who 110 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 6: did not need the job, who are not behold into 111 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 6: special interests and cannot be bought out by the special interests, 112 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 6: and that their only interest is to serve the American 113 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 6: public and wean out the type of rot and corruption 114 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 6: that we're discussing here today that makes them this type 115 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 6: of threat. That's exactly why Time magazine has tried to 116 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 6: create some space between President and Trump banil On Musk, 117 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 6: Why Politico some of these other leftist publications have sought 118 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 6: to do it. President Trump is smart, Alan Muskus smart, 119 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 6: and the American people back both of them in unison 120 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 6: to make America great again, to stop the corruption, to 121 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,559 Speaker 6: expose the wrongdoers, and to get this country back on track. 122 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: Well, you know, George, at least fourteen states have come 123 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: together as part of a lawsuit against Musk, Trump and DOJE, 124 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: saying the tesla's CEO's role is unconstitutional because he is 125 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: not been confirmed by the Senate. Now, I would think 126 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: that the reason why the left is so up in 127 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: arms about Musk is because he's uncovering, agency by agency, 128 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: all of the improprieties and slush fund that the Democrats had. 129 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: But Elon Musk was a Democrat before, So why is 130 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: it so bad that he's uncovering all of the waste, fraud, 131 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: and abuse that are in all of these agencies. Isn't 132 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: that what's good for What they say is what's good 133 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: for the goose is good for the gander. 134 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 6: What's good for the goose is certainly good for the gander. 135 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 6: Accept that the goose is getting the payouts. And in 136 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 6: this case, let's call let's call the geese the Democrats. 137 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 6: And that's exactly why Elon Musk a former Democrat. And 138 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 6: look a lot of these senior executives, senior business leaders 139 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 6: who are now either advising President from formally or informally, 140 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 6: or part of the administration formally or not formally, were 141 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 6: former Democrats. Until he woke up. They saw how far 142 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 6: left the Democrat Party went. It became something completely unrecognizable. 143 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 6: The country was facing a simultaneous political security and economic crisis. 144 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 5: And it took former Democrats like. 145 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 6: Musk, like others including Bezos, to get on board finally 146 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 6: and to say enough is enough. This is not the 147 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 6: America that I was raising. This is not the America 148 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 6: that I made my billions in. And if we continued 149 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 6: down the line that the Democrat Party wanted us to 150 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 6: go down, not only would we have crossed the rubicon 151 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 6: of economic disarray, but our values, our traditions, and what 152 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 6: made America of what it is, including the rule of law, 153 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 6: the constitution, and our functioning as a republic would have 154 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 6: ceased to exist. And that's exactly why what's happening is happening, 155 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 6: and why they're pushing back against former allies who have 156 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 6: changed their tune and are now supporting Mago absolutely. 157 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: I mean, that's probably why the White House came out 158 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: with that statement, just to reiterate that senior advisors don't 159 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: have to be confirmed. Trump is still trying to push 160 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: through his other nominees. His nominee to serve as FBI Director, 161 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: Cash Pattel, is getting closer and closer to getting the 162 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 2: support from the Senate to take on this new role. 163 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 2: I believe there is a vote scheduled for Thursday for him. 164 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn said in a recent interview that 165 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 2: she believes Democrats like Congressman Adam Schiff and others are 166 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 2: fearful of Patel, citing alleged involvement in Russian Gate. What 167 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 2: do you think that Patel could uncover? 168 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 5: Certainly, Kash Mattel his good friend. 169 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 6: He made his name uncovering a lot of the legal 170 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 6: activities of the FBI and the Democrat Party going all 171 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 6: the way up to Hillary Clinton while he was an 172 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 6: associate to Congressman Devin Nunez, and then of course later 173 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 6: became a high level Pentagon figure and the Trump administration official. 174 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 6: So I think the reason you have people like our senatorship, 175 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 6: I should say in other Democrats so fearful of cash 176 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 6: Mattel as leader of fbis because they have a lot 177 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 6: to hide. It goes exactly to how this person of 178 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 6: the Social Security Administration, other high profile Democrats don't want 179 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,599 Speaker 6: light to be exhibited in the secrets of Washington, d C. 180 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 5: I think Cash Mattel is going to be appointed. 181 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 6: I think he's going to be confirmed, and when he is, 182 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 6: just like when President Trump was running on a campaign 183 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 6: of promises made, promises kept. I think Cash Bettel will 184 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 6: do exactly the same thing when he's appointed FBI director. 185 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 6: When he's confirmed FBI director, he will expose the corruption 186 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 6: that went into Russigate. 187 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 5: He will expose the corruption that went into. 188 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 6: The past FBI leadership, and he will finally revamp the 189 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 6: preeminence law enforcement agency of the world focus redirect the 190 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 6: mission of the FBI towards combating violent criminals, terrorists, and 191 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 6: keeping Americans safe instead of persecuting Americans just for having 192 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 6: different political beliefs. 193 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 2: Now, George, really quickly, we only have about a minute 194 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: left with you.

We've I've just finished signing some 232 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 4: executive orders, and if we could start with that, Will 233 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 4: you might want to come up here and just explain 234 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 4: what we did. Thank you, Good afternoon, y'all. 235 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 8: A short while ago, President Trump signed three three items. 236 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 8: The first is an executive order relating to the afforded 237 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 8: and availability of in vitro fertilization and other fertility treatments. 238 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 8: These are treatments that have become unaffordable for many Americans 239 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 8: or have been unaffordable for many Americans, and the executive 240 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 8: order is a directive to the Domestic Policy Council to 241 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 8: examine ways to make IVF and other fertility treatments more 242 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 8: affordable for more Americans. The second item that we signed 243 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 8: was a presidential memorandum imposing radical transparency requirements on government 244 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 8: departments and agencies, in keeping with President Trump and the 245 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 8: administrations broader commitment to governmental transparency. What this presidential memorandum 246 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 8: would do is require as waste, fraud and abuse is uncovered, 247 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 8: as programs are canceled, and ultimately, as taxpayer dollars are saved. 248 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 8: This Presidential memorandum would require departments and agencies to make 249 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 8: all of the details of that freely available to the public. Lastly, 250 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 8: we have another executive order that President Trump signed relating 251 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 8: to dependent agencies. This executive order would establish important oversight 252 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 8: functions in the Office of Management and Budget and its 253 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:13,239 Speaker 8: subsidiary office OHIRA, supervising independent agencies and many of their actions, 254 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 8: and also re establishes the longstanding norm that only the 255 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 8: President or the Attorney General can speak for the United 256 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 8: States when stating an opinion as to what the law is. 257 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 4: Thank you very much. Well, that was the primary purpose 258 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 4: of this conference, to explain that they are all very 259 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 4: important in their own way. Fertilization. I've been saying that 260 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 4: we're going to do what we have to do, and 261 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 4: I think the women and families husbands very appreciative of it. 262 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 4: But that was it. I do want to say, well, 263 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 4: I'm up here. I've been contacted by some of the 264 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 4: biggest companies in the world, and because of what we're 265 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 4: doing economically and through tariffs and taxes and incentives, they 266 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 4: want to come back into the United States. And we'll 267 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 4: be announcing various very large companies, the biggest actually and 268 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 4: they'll be coming back, having to do with chips and 269 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 4: having to do also with cars and lots of other things. 270 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 4: We're going to be announcing some very very big, very big, 271 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 4: momentous I think momentous decisions are being made by companies 272 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 4: all around the world, the biggest and they want to 273 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 4: come back into the US. Car plants are being canceled 274 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 4: in other locations now because they want to build them here. 275 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 4: And you read about a couple not that I want 276 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 4: to mention names or anything, but you read about a 277 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 4: couple of big ones in Mexico just got canceled because 278 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 4: they're going to be building them in the United States. 279 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 4: And that's very simply because of what we're doing with 280 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 4: respect to taxes, tariffs and incentives. And I think it's 281 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 4: a very important thing. And you'll be seeing this over 282 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 4: the next probably over the next two years, to be honest, 283 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 4: but you're going to see a lot of it over 284 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 4: the next couple of weeks. A lot of big ones 285 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 4: are going to be announcing. And so while we're here, 286 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 4: I guess we can take a couple quick questions. Go ahead, 287 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 4: Please please. 288 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 7: Have you decided specifically what the auto tariff. 289 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 9: Rate should be? 290 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 4: Yeah? I probably will tell you that in on April second, 291 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 4: but it'll be in the neighborhood of twenty five percent. 292 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 9: Pharmaceuticals. 293 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 4: It'll be twenty five percent and higher, and it'll go 294 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 4: very substantially higher over the course of a year. But 295 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 4: we want to give them time to come in because, 296 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 4: as you know, when they come into the United States 297 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 4: and they have their plant or factory here, there is 298 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 4: no tariff. So we want to give them a little 299 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 4: bit of a chance. Yes, thank you. 300 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 7: The EU, sorry Andre, EU representative is going to be 301 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 7: here in Washington next week tomorrow. 302 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 5: You're going to be eating at it and career and. 303 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 4: To sort of avoids that you've. 304 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 7: Talked about, and you know you've talked a lot about 305 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 7: the Do you expect. 306 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 4: Them to do that? Well, already, as I understand, it 307 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 4: reduced their car tariff all the way down to what 308 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 4: we have, and a lot of that will take place, 309 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 4: and I think some won't do it and some will 310 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 4: do it. But the EU had a ten percent tax 311 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 4: on cars and now they have a two and a 312 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 4: half percent tax, which is the exact same as US. 313 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 4: So already we've saved a tremendous amount. That would be 314 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 4: great everybody would do that, then we'd all be on 315 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 4: the same playing field, because essentially, what we're doing with 316 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 4: the tariffs is, you know, they charge us, we charge 317 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 4: them same amount, and it's called reciprocal actually, and whatever 318 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 4: they charge us, we're charging them. And so the EU 319 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 4: is you know, I appreciate that they did this, but 320 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,199 Speaker 4: you know, the EU has been very unfair to us. 321 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 4: We have a deficit of three hundred and fifty billion dollars. 322 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 4: They don't take our cars, they don't take our farm products, 323 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 4: they don't take almost anything. They take very little, and 324 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 4: we're going to have to straighten that out, and we will, 325 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 4: I have no doubt about it. 326 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 10: Yeah, go ahead, can tell us a little bit more 327 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 10: about the Russia books infessionally how they went today, and 328 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 10: if you move off in the deer. 329 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 4: After what happened today, it's more confident they were very good. 330 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 4: Russia wants to do something. They want to stop the 331 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 4: savage barbarianism. I mean, what's going on over there. It's 332 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 4: soldiers are being killed by the thousands on a weekly basis. 333 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 4: It's ridiculous. And they're not American soldiers. They're Russian soldiers 334 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 4: and they're Ukrainian soldiers largely, although a lot of Koreans 335 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 4: have been killed. As you know, quite a bit of 336 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 4: them have been killed. They came over to fight and 337 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 4: a large portion have been wiped out. But we want 338 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 4: to end it was it's a senseless war. It should 339 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,120 Speaker 4: have never happened, would have never happened if I was president. 340 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 4: And it's a shame to see it. And I see 341 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 4: pictures that you don't see, but I see pictures of 342 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 4: fields that look hard, just horrible. It looks like Gettysburg. 343 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 4: If you see the old pictures of Gettysburg. It's soldiers 344 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 4: lying all over the field, body parts all over the field. 345 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 4: They're all dead. And this is going on on a 346 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 4: daily basis. It's a horrible thing. Both Russia and Ukraine. 347 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,360 Speaker 4: They're losing thousands and thousands of soldiers and a lot 348 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 4: of people have been killed too. I think that's one 349 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 4: of the things that you'll see historically, and you'll see 350 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 4: later on as it goes along. I think people are 351 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 4: going to be surprised at how many people, not only soldiers, 352 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 4: have been killed in Ukraine, a lot more people than 353 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 4: you think. Yeah, please, that's. 354 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 6: All. 355 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 4: Well, everybody's asked me to do that, so I don't 356 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 4: think we'd have to do that. I wouldn't want to 357 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 4: do that, but that question has never really come up. Yeah, please, 358 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 4: as if they want to do that, that's great. I'm 359 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 4: all for it. If they want to do that, I 360 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 4: think that's that. It'll be fine. I mean, I know 361 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 4: This has mentioned it, others have mentioned it, UK has 362 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 4: mentioned it. But yeah, well, if we have a peace deal, 363 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 4: I think having troops over there, for from the standpoint 364 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 4: of Europe, we won't have to put any over there, 365 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 4: because you know, we're very far away, but having troops 366 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 4: over there would be fine. I would not object to 367 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 4: it at all. We're talking about this now peace. We 368 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 4: have either a cease fire or peace itself, and we're 369 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 4: looking to do both. What start off with the ceasefire 370 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 4: and if they want to do that, I know France 371 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 4: was willing to do that, and I thought that was 372 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 4: a beautiful gesture. Yelp, please, I think I'm really disappointed 373 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 4: in what's happened. I've been watching this for three years. 374 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 4: It's a war that would have never happened if I 375 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 4: was president, and I've been watching these these you know, 376 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 4: people being killed at levels that you've rarely seen, not 377 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 4: even close since the Second World War. And I'm very 378 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 4: disappointed I hear that. You know they're upset about not 379 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 4: having a seat, Well, they've had a seat for three 380 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 4: years and a long time before that. This could have 381 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 4: been settled very easily, just a half baked negotiator could 382 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 4: have settled this years ago without I think, without the 383 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 4: loss of much land, very little land, without the loss 384 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 4: of any lives, and without the loss of cities that 385 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 4: are just laying on their sides. You have those magnificent 386 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 4: golden domes that are shattered, will never be replaced. You 387 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,239 Speaker 4: can't replace them, a thousand year old domes that are 388 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 4: so beautiful, they can't replace that. The whole civilization has 389 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,640 Speaker 4: changed because of what. So when they're worried about not 390 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 4: being seated, I mean somebody that should have gone in 391 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 4: and made a deal a long time ago. You could 392 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 4: have made a deal. This is one that could have 393 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 4: made a deal. There was no talk of this during 394 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 4: the Trump administration. Putin would have never ever done it. 395 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 4: And by the way, we wouldn't have had October seventh. 396 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 4: You know that we wouldn't have had October seventh either 397 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 4: in Israel, and we wouldn't have had that mess that's 398 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 4: going on over there. It's like, we have great fire 399 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 4: people here. We're putting out fires all over the world. 400 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 4: We're putting out fires. So that wouldn't have happened. And 401 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 4: you know what else wouldn't have happened, inflation because it 402 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 4: was caused really by the cost of energy going through 403 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 4: the roof, because of their bad energy policies. And and 404 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 4: also they're spending, they're terrible spending, wasteful spending on the 405 00:22:32,680 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 4: green new scam. It's a scam. It's a whole big scam. Yeah, please, Yes, 406 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 4: that some of the phrases that they want to use 407 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 4: are ridiculous, and I think, frankly they become obsolete, especially 408 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 4: in the last three weeks, because many things have happened 409 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,479 Speaker 4: in the last three weeks and I didn't know about that, 410 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 4: but I would say that if they want to use 411 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 4: certain phrases like that, and I guess some are okay, 412 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 4: but many aren't. But the Associated Press just refuses to 413 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 4: go with what the law is and what has taking place. 414 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 4: It's called the Gulf of America. Now it's not called 415 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 4: the Gulf of Mexico any longer. I have the right 416 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 4: to do it, just like we have the right to 417 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 4: do McKinley, and nobody's even challenging that, but only the 418 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 4: Associate Essentially, it's primarily the Associated Press, And I don't 419 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 4: know what they're doing, but I just say that we're 420 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,479 Speaker 4: going to keep them out until such time as they 421 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 4: agree that it's the Gulf of America. We're very proud 422 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 4: of this country and we want it to be the 423 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 4: Gulf of America. Now, the Associated Presses, you know, has 424 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 4: been very, very very wrong on the election, on Trump 425 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 4: and the treatment of Trump and other things having to 426 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 4: do with Trump and Republicans and Conservatives, and they're doing 427 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 4: us no favors, and I guess I'm not doing them 428 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 4: any favors. That's the way life works. But you know, 429 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 4: thank you for the question. Who you with? Thank you, yes, 430 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:28,959 Speaker 4: Molly Logets. 431 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 3: Or sag P. 432 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 5: That's something that US haves for. 433 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 4: Well, we have a situation where we haven't had elections 434 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 4: in Ukraine. Well we have martial law, essentially martial law 435 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 4: in Ukraine where the leader in Ukraine, I mean, I 436 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 4: hate to say it, but he's down at four percent 437 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 4: approval rating, and where a country has been blown to smithereens. 438 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 4: You got most of the cities are laying on their sides, 439 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 4: the buildings are collapsed. It looks like a massive a 440 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 4: demolition site the whole. I mean so many of the cities. 441 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 4: I mean, they haven't done it in Kiev because I 442 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 4: guess they don't want to shoot too many rockets in there. 443 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 4: They've done it twenty percent, but they haven't done it 444 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 4: one hundred percent. If they wanted to do it one 445 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 4: hundred percent, it would probably happen very quickly. But you 446 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:20,400 Speaker 4: have cities that are absolutely decimated. And yeah, I would 447 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 4: say that, you know, when they want a seat at 448 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 4: the table, you could say that people have to, wouldn't 449 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 4: the people of Ukraine have to say, like, you know, 450 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 4: it's been a long time since we've had an election. 451 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 4: That's not a Russia thing. That's something coming from me 452 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 4: and coming from many other countries. Also, you know, Ukraine 453 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 4: is being just wiped out. Look at what's happening to 454 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,239 Speaker 4: the cities that there are cities there's not even a 455 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 4: building standing. It's a massive You talk about Gaza, I 456 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 4: mean it's literally these cities look like Gaza. Actually many 457 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 4: have percentage wise more buildings knocked down than in Gaza. 458 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 4: So you know, people are tired of it. People want 459 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 4: to see something happen. And you know the other thing 460 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 4: that it's been bothering me for a long time because 461 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 4: I solved the problem with NATO. They paid hundreds of 462 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 4: billions of dollars into the funds of NATO when I said, 463 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 4: you got to pay because the United States was paying 464 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 4: for European countries and then they take advantage of us 465 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 4: on trade. But I've seen it. Look, we have to 466 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 4: they have to pay. They have to find out where's 467 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 4: the money going to we have I believe President Zelensky 468 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 4: said last week that he is in no way half 469 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 4: of the money is that we gave him. Well, we 470 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 4: gave them I believe three hundred and fifty billion dollars, 471 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 4: but let's say it's something less than that, but it's 472 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,959 Speaker 4: it's a lot, and we have to equalize with Europe 473 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 4: because Europe has given us given a very much smaller 474 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 4: percentage of that. I think Europe has given a hundred 475 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 4: billion and we've given let's say three hundred plus. And 476 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 4: it's more important for them than it is for us. 477 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 4: We have an ocean in between and they don't. But 478 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 4: where is all the money that's been given? Where is 479 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 4: it going, and nobody. I've never seen an accounting of it. 480 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 4: We give hundreds of billions of dollars, I don't see 481 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 4: any accounting. So I want to see peace. Look, you 482 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 4: know why I want because I don't want all these 483 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 4: people killed anymore. I'm looking at people that are being killed, 484 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 4: and they're Russian and Ukrainian people, but they're people, doesn't 485 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 4: matter where they're from, on the whole planet. And I 486 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 4: think I have the power to end this war, and 487 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 4: I think it's going very well. But today I heard, oh, 488 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 4: we weren't invited. Well, you've been there for three years. 489 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 4: You should have ended it three years. You should have 490 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 4: never started it. You could have made a deal. I 491 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 4: could have made a deal for Ukraine that would have 492 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 4: given him almost all of the land everything, almost all 493 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 4: of the land, and no people would have been killed, 494 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 4: and no city would have been demolished, and not one 495 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 4: dome would have been knocked down. But they chose not 496 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 4: to do it that way. And President Biden, in all fairness, 497 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 4: he doesn't have a clue what he was so bad 498 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 4: for this. He was so bad phatic, it's so sad. 499 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 4: But with all of that being said, look, well it 500 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 4: is what it is. When I left, there was no 501 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 4: chance that this could have happened. But it happened because 502 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 4: we had incompetent leadership at many different levels. But when 503 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 4: you see what's taken place in Ukraine with millions of 504 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 4: people killed, including the soldiers, millions of people killed, a 505 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 4: big percentage of their cities knocked down to the ground, 506 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 4: I don't know how anybody even lives there. You know, 507 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 4: when they say they took a poll and Zelensky is 508 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 4: at four percent, who's living there? You know? I mean 509 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 4: people are It's hard to believe that people live there. 510 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 4: Their cities are being knocked down. And this is something 511 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 4: that would have never happened, and by the way, for 512 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 4: four years it didn't happen, was never going to happen. 513 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 4: Go ahead, the. 514 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 8: Question how would you encountered the profession belt questions said 515 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 8: that a relationships. 516 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 2: Or how would you against. 517 00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 4: The government, and how that you left the Look, you 518 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 4: have leadership, and I like him personally, he's fine, but 519 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 4: I don't care about personally. I care about getting the 520 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 4: job done. You have leadership now that's allowed a war 521 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 4: to go on that should have never even happened, even 522 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,959 Speaker 4: without the United States. Look we had a president who 523 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 4: was grossly incompetent. He had no idea what he was doing. 524 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 4: He said some very stupid things like going in for 525 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 4: portions and all of the things. He made a lot 526 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 4: of bad statements. But he's grossly incompetent. And I think 527 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 4: everyone knew that this is something that should have never happened, 528 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 4: would have never happened. And I used to discuss it 529 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 4: with Putin. President Putin and I would talk about Ukraine. 530 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 4: It was the apple of his eye, I will tell 531 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 4: you that. But he never there was never a chance 532 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 4: of him going in. And I told him you better 533 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 4: not go in. Don't go in, don't go in. And 534 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 4: he understood that, he understood it fully. But I'm only interested. 535 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 4: I want to see if I can save maybe millions 536 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 4: of lives. This could even I end up in a 537 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 4: World War three. I mean to be honest with you. 538 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:03,959 Speaker 4: You've been hearing now Europe to say, well, I think 539 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 4: we're going to go in a we're going to go 540 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, you could end up in World 541 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 4: War three over something that should have never happened. And 542 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 4: you know it's a very sad situation. Yeah, please in 543 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 4: a court. Finally, the way I said that young Luk 544 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 4: is not those employee and. 545 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 5: Has no story, makes. 546 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 4: Is to me a patriot.

I could go on all day 665 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 4: long and you'll see hundreds of billions of dollars. And 666 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 4: we're doing it. But when I saw the social security numbers, 667 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 4: I said, wow, that's really something. So we have let's 668 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 4: just go above one hundred years old. We have millions 669 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 4: and millions of people over one hundred years old. Everybody 670 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 4: knows that's not so. We have a very corrupt country, 671 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,879 Speaker 4: very corrupt country, and it's a sad thing to say, 672 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 4: but we're figuring it out now. The good thing about 673 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 4: social security, and what I read is if you take 674 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 4: all of those numbers off, because they're obviously fraudulent or incompetent, 675 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,319 Speaker 4: but if you take all of those millions of people 676 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,320 Speaker 4: off social Security, all of a sudden we have a 677 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 4: very powerful social Security with people that are eighty and 678 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 4: seventy and ninety but not two hundred years old, you know, 679 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 4: so it's a very positive thing. How about over here 680 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 4: you please doage investigations. The head of Social Security got fired. 681 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 4: I think got fired. You know when you fire somebody, 682 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 4: they always resign and then they say we resigned. But 683 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 4: when you have numbers like that, I think, really it's 684 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 4: got fired. They have to get fired. Who would keep them? 685 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 4: How could you have numbers like this? 686 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 7: Now? 687 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 4: The big thing is how many of these people got paid? 688 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 4: Were they getting paid? Were they getting paid? How many 689 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 4: of them were getting paid social Security? Because if that's 690 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 4: the case, it's a massive fraud. We will have to 691 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 4: call those great Palm Beach Police into this situation. Right, 692 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 4: you guys would figure that out very quickly. But how 693 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 4: many of them are being paid? I mean maybe millions 694 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 4: of them, but it's a total fraud. Also a lot 695 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 4: of illegal immigrants are in Social Security. That shouldn't be 696 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,320 Speaker 4: the Yeah, please go ahead, President. 697 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 8: There was a big way informationary federal workers were fired 698 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 8: for the bekend. Some of these workers focused on goler 699 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 8: weapons security were immediately re hired. You have any concerns about. 700 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 4: How thesemations, not at all. I think we have to 701 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 4: just do what we have to do. It's you know, 702 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 4: you're gonna it's amazing what's been found right now, it's amazing. 703 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 4: Some if we feel that in some cases, they'll fire 704 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 4: people and then they'll put some people back, not all 705 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 4: of them, because a lot of people were let go. 706 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:33,320 Speaker 4: Don't forget. I got elected on the basis of making 707 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 4: our government stronger and smaller because we have millions of 708 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:41,760 Speaker 4: people that obviously they're paying millions of people that shouldn't 709 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 4: be paid, and that has also to do with workers. Yeah, please. 710 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 5: Us. 711 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I'm just hearing about it. And if 712 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 4: there is, and he told me before, I told him, 713 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,800 Speaker 4: but obviously I will not let there be any conflict 714 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 4: of interest. He's done an amazing job, they've revealed. In fact, 715 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 4: he's going to be on tonight a big show called 716 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 4: Sean Hannity at nine o'clock and he's on and I'm on, 717 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,400 Speaker 4: and we talk about a lot of different things, and 718 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 4: any conflicts I told Elon, any conflicts, you can't have 719 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 4: anything to do with that. So anything to do with 720 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 4: possibly even space, we won't let Elon partake in that. Yeah, 721 00:41:45,960 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 4: please on immigration, sir, you said you would be sending. No, 722 00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 4: they're going to be brought back to their countries. And 723 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 4: with some persuasion every one of those countries, everyone in 724 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 4: the as you know, every country is taking the people back. 725 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:15,919 Speaker 4: So some of them are going to be brought back 726 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 4: to many of them, any of them that are low risk, 727 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 4: as you say, are going to be brought back to 728 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 4: their countries less well on the run. And it looked 729 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 4: like that was going to be very good. And when 730 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 4: Biden came in, as he always does, he screws it 731 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 4: up and they started buying millions and millions and millions 732 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:52,760 Speaker 4: of dollars of oil, billions of dollars actually of oil. 733 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 4: And it gave them a new lice, a new really 734 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 4: lease on life. And but we'll see, we had some 735 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,320 Speaker 4: pretty good discussions with a lot of people within our government, 736 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,800 Speaker 4: in the United States government that are involved in that. 737 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 4: And Venezuela's a little bit early, but you know, we 738 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,320 Speaker 4: were not buying from Venezuela. When Biden came in for 739 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 4: whatever reason, instead of just taking the beautiful as I 740 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 4: call it, liquid go, we have more than anybody, they 741 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,720 Speaker 4: started paying a fortune to Venezuela and were looking at that. Actually, 742 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 4: why did they do that? Why were they doing that? 743 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 4: Why would they go to the enemy and give them 744 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 4: billions and billions of dollars. Now, with that being said, 745 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 4: as you know, Venezuela has said very strongly they will 746 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 4: not take any any illegal immigrant, any of the people 747 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 4: that they sent over to us. They sent their games, 748 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 4: probably the worst gang anywhere in the world, as bad 749 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 4: as MS thirteen may be worse, and they came out 750 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 4: of the jails of Venezuela. They emptied their jails into 751 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 4: our country, and they said, we'll never take them back. Well, 752 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 4: they took them back, and they're taking them back, and 753 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 4: they are taking it back rapidly, sending a lot of 754 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 4: people to Venezuela. They said they wouldn't take them back, 755 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 4: and they are taking back. But we're looking at Venezuela 756 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,439 Speaker 4: very seriously, and we're gonna be able to don't forget 757 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 4: I've only been here for three weeks a third, arming 758 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:27,359 Speaker 4: clients to continue to off. We're looking at that now. 759 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,439 Speaker 4: I just got here. When I was when I left, 760 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 4: they weren't doing anything. They were ready to go. We 761 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 4: give up. And then Biden came along and he gave 762 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:42,880 Speaker 4: them literally billions of dollars. I couldn't believe it, actually, 763 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 4: and we have so much under our feet, liquid gold. 764 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 4: We have so much, and it's pretty amazing. So we're 765 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 4: looking at that whole situation, why he did it, or 766 00:44:53,080 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 4: how about one more yeah? Please? Yeah. Mexico has allowed 767 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,800 Speaker 4: a tremendous number of people to go through their country 768 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 4: into ours, and even people coming from Mexico and illegals, 769 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 4: totally illegal. They've allowed people to empty jails into Mexico 770 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,280 Speaker 4: and then let them come through with this totally ridiculous 771 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 4: open border policy of the Biden administration. So millions of 772 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 4: people have come in and hundreds of thousands and actually 773 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 4: millions or criminals. They came in from jails all over 774 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 4: the world that release them into Mexico and they come 775 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 4: into our country. And they also came in from Canada, 776 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 4: by the way, large numbers through Canada. In fact, when 777 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 4: we close up the one border, they came in through 778 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 4: the other border. So Canada is not an uninterested party. 779 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 4: But I will say this, we're dealing with Mexico. I 780 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 4: have a very good relationship with Mexico. But I think 781 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 4: Mexico is largely run by the cartels, and that's a 782 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 4: sad thing to say. If they wanted help with that, 783 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,799 Speaker 4: we'd give them help. But Mexico, if you look at 784 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 4: what's gone on with Mexico for years now, but now especially, 785 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 4: it's run by the cartels, and they've allowed millions of 786 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,280 Speaker 4: people to come into our country from jails and prisons 787 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 4: of other countries from all over the world, not just 788 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 4: South America, Africa, Asia, all over a lot. From the 789 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 4: Congo in Africa a lot. They opened their jails. They 790 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 4: came in through Mexico, and we have some of the 791 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 4: worst criminals coming in from the Congo and other places. 792 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 4: So it's not just South America and it's not just Venezuela. 793 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 4: But they opened their jails, and you know, the crime 794 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 4: rates in Venezuela and other places all over the world 795 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,480 Speaker 4: has gone way down. You know why, because they've given 796 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,800 Speaker 4: us their prisoners, they've given us their drug lords and 797 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 4: their gang members. And it's hard to believe that we 798 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 4: accepted this. It's hard to believe that we allowed open 799 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,760 Speaker 4: borders and we're taking in, you know, hundreds of thousands 800 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 4: and millions of people coming in from all all over 801 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,759 Speaker 4: the world that are absolute Stone called criminals, in fact, 802 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 4: eleven thousand and eighty eight murderers, and many of those 803 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 4: people have murdered more than one person. Why are they 804 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,360 Speaker 4: giving us these people and why are we taking these people? 805 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 4: Under Biden, you know, you had a borders are that 806 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 4: never went to the border, happened to be a vice president, 807 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 4: never went to the border, never called the border people. 808 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 4: I've called them all the time, I speak to them 809 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 4: all all the time. But here's the good news. We 810 00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,399 Speaker 4: have the most secure border we've ever had right now, 811 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 4: as secure and even more secure than I had it 812 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 4: four years ago. And the border patrols doing incredible. ICE 813 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 4: is doing incredible. Tom Holman's unbelievable, and Christine Holme has 814 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 4: been just working very very hard, very very hard, and 815 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,040 Speaker 4: we have the best numbers we've ever had, and we're 816 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 4: going to keep it that way, and we're going to 817 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 4: find out how a thing like this could have happen 818 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 4: to our country, because who would allow this to happen. 819 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 4: What they've done to our country is so said, thank 820 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:57,360 Speaker 4: you very much, thank you. 821 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 2: And we were just listening in to President Trump at 822 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 2: mar A Lago. He signed three executive orders today and 823 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,760 Speaker 2: then took a lot of questions from the press. Starting 824 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 2: out talking a lot about the war in Ukraine and 825 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 2: the negotiations that are ongoing with Russia to try to 826 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,120 Speaker 2: come to some kind of a ceasefire over there. He 827 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 2: had said many times that President Biden was grossly incompetent, 828 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 2: that he didn't know what was going on, and that 829 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 2: if he would have been in office over the past 830 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 2: three years, that this war would have never happened in 831 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 2: the first place. Then spent a lot of time talking 832 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,880 Speaker 2: about DOGE as well, the Department of Government Efficiency. Some 833 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 2: headlines today about Elon Musk the White House coming out 834 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:46,320 Speaker 2: and saying that he is, in fact not a DOGE employee. Instead, 835 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,920 Speaker 2: he is a senior advisor to the President. There was 836 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 2: a question about that during that press conference right there 837 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,440 Speaker 2: where President Trump said that Elon Musk is a patriot 838 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,359 Speaker 2: and then read off a very long list of all 839 00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 2: of the fraud that doche has already been able to 840 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 2: uncover in just the three weeks of this second administration. 841 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 2: Bo I want to bring you in on this. It 842 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 2: was almost funny listening to him talk about the dumb 843 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 2: things that American taxpayer dollars go towards. Because you think 844 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, How is this so overdue? How has 845 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:15,479 Speaker 2: this been going on for so long? And we haven't 846 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:17,839 Speaker 2: uncovered this? But it's really not funny if you think 847 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 2: about it. It's a complete waste. 848 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: I know, we were sitting here laughing, and it's really 849 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 1: not a laughing matter. It's funny the way he delivers it. 850 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 1: But the fraud and waste money for circumcisions in Mozambique, 851 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 1: voter confidence in Liberia, and as he mentioned, what about 852 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 1: voter confidence here in the United States? 853 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 4: What about that? 854 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:35,880 Speaker 1: He keeps point of the fact that we've given all 855 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,800 Speaker 1: this money out overseas into foreign countries when we should 856 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 1: be focused right here on America, which is exactly why 857 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,799 Speaker 1: we had this whole America First Agenda. He said, I've 858 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 1: never met a two hundred and ten year old person, 859 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 1: but if I do, I sure would love to meet them. 860 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: You know, two hundred and ten years old people one 861 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:51,279 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty to one hundred and forty nine years old. 862 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,280 Speaker 1: Three million dollars went to that. That's social security fraud 863 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 1: and those three executive order zim, I want to focus 864 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 1: on those because the first one is about in vitro 865 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 1: fertilization or I. He wants to make that more affordable 866 00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 1: and more accessible. And I looked at this and back 867 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,120 Speaker 1: in a town hall in October of twenty twenty four, 868 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 1: it was all female that town hall. He called himself 869 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 1: the father of IVF. This goes back even to August 870 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four when he said that he would 871 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 1: support free IVF treatment. So I think that's a really 872 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 1: unique thing that he's doing for women today and couples 873 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,040 Speaker 1: out there who want to be able to have a baby. 874 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:26,360 Speaker 1: I think that's significant, and he's codifying it right now 875 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:26,879 Speaker 1: into law. 876 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:28,839 Speaker 2: It is really great to see bo. He is getting 877 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 2: so much done even just a short amount of time 878 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:33,360 Speaker 2: in this administration. But we do want to move on 879 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,240 Speaker 2: to other top headlines today. Most Americans field the United 880 00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 2: States is heading in a more positive direction with President 881 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 2: Trump leading the way, Yet the price of gold has 882 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 2: been going up. We turned to Birch Gold Group's precious 883 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 2: metal specialist Philip Patrick for the answers. Welcome back to 884 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:48,480 Speaker 2: the show, Philip. 885 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: Thank you for having me, guys, absolutely Philip Well. Gold 886 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 1: has been in the news quite a bit lately with 887 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: its recent all time highs. What is driving the gold price. 888 00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:02,240 Speaker 9: Right now it is looking we've set forty record highs 889 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:06,439 Speaker 9: throughout twenty twenty four, several record highs already this year. 890 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:10,320 Speaker 9: In twenty five, we're up eleven percent, and that's on 891 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 9: top of the forty two percent growth we saw in 892 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 9: gold last year. Ultimately, what's driving it is is demand, right, 893 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:20,319 Speaker 9: and central banks are really leading the way. They bought 894 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,400 Speaker 9: more than a thousand tons of gold for the third 895 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 9: consecutive years, So we've seen the three biggest years of 896 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 9: central bank gold buying in history, one of the right 897 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,959 Speaker 9: after the other. Now, for me, I think the most 898 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 9: powerful dynamic effecting gold's price is currency, and specifically the dollar. 899 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 9: We can't forget that over the last four years under Biden, 900 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:47,840 Speaker 9: the Fed printed more money than ever before in American history. 901 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:51,719 Speaker 9: Combined on top of that, his weaponization of the dollar 902 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 9: in twenty twenty two directly resulted in a fivefold growth 903 00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:00,320 Speaker 9: of central bank gold buying. It's not just the banks, 904 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 9: its investment demand, its technology demand. In fact, the only 905 00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 9: sector where demand didn't grow for gold was in the 906 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 9: jewelry sector, which quite understandably given the global situation. 907 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 2: Well, it's great to hear that it's growing so much, 908 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,280 Speaker 2: but there has been a lot of talk recently about 909 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:17,959 Speaker 2: disruptions in the gold market. 910 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:19,320 Speaker 7: What exactly is going on with that? 911 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's been big news in the precious metals industry. Obviously, 912 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 9: we're talking about unprecedented demand and it's being driven a 913 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 9: lot domestically. 914 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:30,720 Speaker 4: In the US. 915 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 9: Refiners and traders at the moment are trying to import 916 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 9: as much bullying as possible in anticipation, sorry of potential 917 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 9: tariffs and potential volatility. What this led to, though, was 918 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 9: a liquidity crunch in London, right, the hub of global 919 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 9: gold trade. A few days ago, one of the world's 920 00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 9: largest refineries informed its customers that the London warehouses were 921 00:52:55,920 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 9: empty and essentially the London gold market was dry of liquid. 922 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 9: In other words, there's no gold that London can deliver. Concerningly, 923 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,239 Speaker 9: the Bank of England is now reaching out to other 924 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 9: central banks to see if they will lend national gold 925 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 9: that's being stored in London. But we're talking about staggering numbers. 926 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:17,279 Speaker 4: Right. 927 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 9: Twenty million ounces of gold are traded daily in the 928 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 9: London bullian market. That's a year's worth of physical production 929 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:30,360 Speaker 9: traded every single week. So the big concern now ninety 930 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 9: six percent of the gold being traded in London and 931 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:37,840 Speaker 9: New York markets has no physical reality whatsoever. It's simply 932 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 9: a financial contract. The worry is once the four percent 933 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 9: of real physical gold has been delivered, what's going to happen. 934 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 9: You know, we're expecting a massive liquidity squeeze, a shortage 935 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 9: of physical metal, and historically that leads to a price expansion. 936 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 9: So an interesting time in the precious metals market. 937 00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 1: Well, Philip, I know there's a lot of confidence, renewed 938 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: confidence now that the Trump administration is going to hopefully 939 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:06,239 Speaker 1: turn the American economy around. What's the case for diversifying 940 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 1: with gold if we don't expect an economic crisis like 941 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 1: maybe we were expecting in the last four years, or 942 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 1: had Kamala Harris actually. 943 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 9: Won, I mean, that would have been the reason to 944 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,480 Speaker 9: put everything into gold. And I'm certainly feeling much more 945 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 9: confident today. And listen, Trump and Elon are doing the 946 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,840 Speaker 9: right things right. I just watched Trump talk. You know, 947 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 9: we're looking at efficiency, we're looking at curbing spending. They're 948 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:35,920 Speaker 9: looking for opportunities to increase revenue, to boost domestic industries. 949 00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:40,279 Speaker 9: They're threatening the bricks now with retaliation, so they understand 950 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 9: the problems. Here's the thing that a lot of this 951 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:45,880 Speaker 9: is going to be out of their hands. 952 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 4: Right. 953 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:49,800 Speaker 9: We have to remember we are still dependent on global 954 00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 9: investors continuing to finance the thirty six trillion dollars of 955 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 9: debt that we have already. Let's not forget one out 956 00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:01,319 Speaker 9: of every five dollars in government debt is financed by 957 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 9: foreign investors. So Trump and the team at the moment, 958 00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 9: they are walking a tightrope, right. They're trying to fuel 959 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,560 Speaker 9: economic growth, and they're trying to do it with borrowed money. 960 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,920 Speaker 9: They don't have a choice. Now, if anyone can pull 961 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 9: it off, they can. But it's difficult, right, striking the 962 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 9: right balance between short term pain and long term prosperity. 963 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 9: It's not likely, but it's possible, and we're hoping for 964 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 9: the best. But if they pulled this off, we have 965 00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 9: to understand they're going to bring us back from a 966 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,279 Speaker 9: position from a debt standpoint, from a currency standpoint that 967 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 9: no nation in history has recovered from. So I think 968 00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:42,719 Speaker 9: everybody needs to be thinking about how to hedge their exposure. 969 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:45,759 Speaker 9: We have insurance for our homes, for our cars, for 970 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,520 Speaker 9: our health, and I think pressures metals will act as 971 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:52,000 Speaker 9: a form of portfolio insurance, so still very important. 972 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: Well, thank you so much for being on Special Report field. 973 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,799 Speaker 1: We always love talking to you.
