WEBVTT - Trump The Builder - October 21st, Hour 1 0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:01.480 Thanks to all of you for being with us. Right 0:00:01.560 --> 0:00:04.080 down are toll free telephone number. If you want to 0:00:04.080 --> 0:00:05.640 be a part of the program, it's eight hundred and 0:00:05.680 --> 0:00:08.000 ninety four to one Sean if you want to join 0:00:08.119 --> 0:00:12.520 us every day. It's something I mean this past weekend, 0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:15.159 the No Kings protests around the country. We're going to 0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:20.400 get back into that. I mean, people the horror of 0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:23.520 the left, the insanity of the left. And this is 0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:25.439 what I was telling Stephen A. Smith and I discussed 0:00:25.440 --> 0:00:28.000 it yesterday. I said, he goes with the crowds. Are 0:00:28.040 --> 0:00:31.200 big Republicans can lose the midterms. I'm like, of course, 0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:34.519 they can lose the midterms. Anybody can lose an election. Now, 0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:38.600 you never take any vote for granted. However, if you're 0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:42.879 looking for to if you're looking to persuade people to 0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:45.760 your point of view, what we saw on display this 0:00:45.880 --> 0:00:49.800 weekend is not going to convince people that you're the 0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:53.040 party that they want to gravitate towards. Just the opposite. 0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:59.000 And with the emergence of Comrade Kami Marxist mum donni 0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:03.360 as the likely next mayor of New York City, and 0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:05.320 I saw the New York Post and we'll get into 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.680 this with Miranda Devine as a big editorial the Curtis 0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:10.280 should get out. Curtis is not getting out. I've known 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:13.480 Curtis for four decades. He's not getting out, period, end 0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:17.840 of sentence. It's not happening. And and Andrew Cuomo has 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:21.640 run a horrible campaign and even in poles head to head, 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:24.200 he's not even close to Mom Donnie, He's down by 0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:28.040 four or five. It's to me this, unfortunately for New 0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:30.440 York City, this is a fate of complete I hope 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:33.760 I'm wrong. I hope, I hope voters surprise everybody. You 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:36.640 have to believe that it may be the last chance 0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:39.039 for New Jersey. I'm telling people in New Jersey this 0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:41.600 is it. And if you want to go the way 0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:43.280 of New York, if you want to go the way 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.360 of Illinois and California, then you you go right ahead. 0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:49.400 Donaldle like Jack Chidarelli, because this is your chance to 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:52.600 fix your state and get back on the right track, 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:56.480 and maybe your last opportunity. I'd hate to see the 0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.640 Commonwealth of Virginia go backwards. And I think win some 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.000 Series would be a great governor. I mean, you have 0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:06.680 two very flawed candidates, one running for governor. You know, 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:12.480 Abigail Spaanberger down in the Commonwealth of Virginia and Mikey 0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:16.440 Cheryl in New Jersey. And there's just utter disasters on policy. 0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:19.480 But it's going to be you know, I love Mikey Cheryl. 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:22.080 Oh why did you not walk with your class at 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:25.640 the Naval Academy. Well, no, I was not part of 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:29.160 the cheating scandal, except that I wouldn't tell them everything 0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:32.960 about what I knew, and then it evolved into I 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:35.600 told them everything I know. I'm like, okay, can we 0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.119 get that straight? The people in New Jersey, I think, 0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:40.840 you know, inquiring minds of a right to know, you know. 0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:43.160 But before we get back to the no King's madness 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:47.040 that took place over the weekend, it's like, now the 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:53.120 latest outrage, you would think no president has ever remodeled 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:57.480 the White House based on the reaction of the crazy 0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:02.680 radical left. And before I get into the history of it, 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:06.440 because there is a rich history of tons of presidents 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:09.960 doing major remodeling work at the White House, you know, 0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:14.280 just just listen. For example, the Colleen Jean Pierre the 0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:17.480 White House Ballroom project is corruption at its core. But 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.040 keep in mind as you listen to this that there's 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:25.560 not one taxpayer dollar being spent on this project. Donald 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:27.919 Trump and his donors are paying for all of it. 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.160 Not a penny of your money that's going to be 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:32.600 spent on this project to beautify the White House. 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:37.680 So the people's house is basically being sold to the 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:42.400 higher spinner. It is corruption at its core. And I 0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:45.600 heard someone say this when I was backstage. It could 0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:50.040 not be. There's no greater metaphor right now. Then what's 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:54.600 happening right now in this country? Then watching Donald Trump 0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:57.600 take a wrecking ball to the White House, it's kind 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.840 of open. Yeah, it's too optative. 0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:04.040 Couldn't make that up. Yeah, and you got liberal Joe 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:07.880 slamming Trump's disgusting demolition of the East wing of the 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:08.400 White House. 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:12.080 Listen, Donald Trump, who promised that he was not going 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:14.840 to take a wrecking ball to the existing structure, has 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:19.120 taking a taking a wrecking ball to existing structure. 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:20.200 I guess I think it really is. 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:21.240 It's it is. 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:22.960 It is hate to watch that. 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:26.360 And it's hard to believe that any president could destroy 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:29.720 the White House, uh and take a wrecking ball to 0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:34.560 an existing structure so historic, that is what's happening. It 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:36.919 would be one thing if if you were building on 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.880 or you were doing things inside, but to take literally 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:45.640 a wrecking ball to the White House, it's grotesque. 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:51.159 I can't the Rose Garden the terrible. 0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:55.920 I guess the patio that they have put in which 0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:59.400 you could argue, did you see. 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:02.200 The state dinner when President Trump was in Great Britain 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:07.760 and the King and Queen through a state dinner and 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:14.120 the and the beauty. It Yeah, certainly opulence, but you know, 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:19.159 there's a certain grandeur and history to state dinners like that, 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:21.480 and having a nice place to have one, rather than 0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:23.360 throwing up a tent in the backyard of the White 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:27.320 House and saying, oh, welcome to all you foreign leaders 0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:29.359 and dignitaries, and it goes on. I can play a 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.719 lot more. I don't have time, you know. All right, 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.600 let's go through a little history here. President Theodore Roosevelt 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:39.560 nineteen o two built the West Wing, replacing expansive greenhouses 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:44.760 constructed during the Jefferson administration and establishing the modern day 0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:49.840 executive office with a you know, classical leaning design. A 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:54.360 nineteen oh nine, seven years later, President William Howard taff 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:58.279 remodeled and expanded the garden to West Wing which included 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:04.080 construction of the first Oval Office. Nineteen thirteen, Woodrow Wilson 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:09.080 demolished colonial the Colonial garden, modernizing that with a rose garden. 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:14.440 Nineteen twenty seven, Calvin Coolich oversaw renovation of the you know, 0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:17.880 upper floors, including the attict of the White House. Nineteen 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:23.839 twenty nine, Herbert Hoover remodeled the West Wing and included 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:27.800 construction on the second floor of the White House and 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:31.640 work in the basement and remodeling the entire first floor 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:35.360 after a fire in the Oval Office, et cetera. And 0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:40.279 you know, FDR overhauled the total west total overhaul of 0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:44.760 the West Wing, adding you know, a reconstruction second floor 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:48.120 and a larger basement, and he put in a swimming 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:52.160 pool and relocated the Oval Office to its current location. 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:58.800 And President Roosevelt constructed the East Way Harry Truman nineteen 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:03.480 forty eight total reconstruction of the garden of the White 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:08.040 House's interior and expanding its foundation and its footprint, preserving 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:12.320 only exterior walls. John Kennedy constructed the modern day rose Garden. 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:18.320 For example, nineteen seventy President Nixon converted you know, the 0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:23.560 the installed swimming pool. I guess it was no that 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:26.920 was geryld Ford put An installed an outdoor swimming pool. 0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:31.960 In nineteen ninety three, Bill Clinton undertook a restoration and 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:35.880 you know, the refurbishment of you know, I guess tennis courts. 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:40.280 At the time of the Executive Mansion, Barack Obama resurfaced 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:44.239 the south ground tennis court into a basketball court, added 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:47.360 the White House kitchen garden on the south lawn. There 0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:49.080 are pictures of all those I'll show you on TV. 0:07:49.240 --> 0:07:52.480 And the left goes crazy because they can't get the 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:55.640 This is like they have to wake up every day 0:07:56.400 --> 0:08:00.280 and they need their fix. They're like drug addicts. Their 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:04.320 drug of choice is hating Donald Trump and all things 0:08:04.400 --> 0:08:06.960 Donald Trump, and they can't stop themselves. 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:07.480 You know. 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:11.400 Meanwhile, the government remains shut down. Meanwhile, you know, they're 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.040 not doing their job. By the way, John Fetterman said 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:16.880 as the Schumer shut down, he'd support the nuclear option 0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:19.160 to end this. I'll get into more detail in a minute, 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:25.640 but if you know, they're having a hard time understanding 0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:29.800 that Donald Trump won every swing state. He won the 0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:32.600 popular vote, which is kind of hard for Republicans to do. 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:37.280 He got if you look at you know, a majorities, 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:41.079 you want a landslide in the general election, earning majorities 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:44.120 in thirty one states. The vast majority of this country 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:48.760 is read you know, multi million vote margin. And Trump 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:52.640 is upholding the constitution. He's not asking for one taxpayer 0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:57.319 dollar for this this you know, reconstruction or adding a ballroom. 0:08:57.400 --> 0:08:59.960 He just thinks that it would be nice and grand 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.400 for the country to put on its best face for 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:05.480 other countries. Whether you agree or disagree doesn't matter, you're 0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:10.960 not paying for it. And the administration, you know, under 0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:13.160 Biden and Harri, well what did they do? You never 0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:18.160 saw these people. We just find out they targeted Donald 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:21.640 Trump and political adversaries at a level we'd never seen before. 0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:26.199 Weaponization lawfair attempted to remove Trump from the ballot before 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:28.559 a single vote was cast. You know, you want to 0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:31.520 talk about you know, a king's no king's protest, Well, 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.480 Kamala Harris was anointed to be her party's nominee without 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.120 a primary, not a single vote given to her, not one. 0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:40.920 So they hold these no king's protests. But it's what 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:45.120 they've been saying. You know, every other sign. Trump is hitler, 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:51.360 Republicans are fascists, you know, f Trump f ice upside 0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:57.400 down American flags, Mexican flags, plenty of violent rhetoric, a 0:09:57.440 --> 0:10:00.360 lot of people dressed up as animals furries as they 0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:05.760 are referred to affectionately. You have a teacher in Chicago 0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:10.200 shouting bang bang bang at a Charlie Kirk supporter while 0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:14.520 putting her hand to her neck. You know, another one 0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:19.240 comparing Charlie Kirk to Hitler, proudly proclaiming that he was 0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:21.520 glad he got killed. Let me play some of the 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:24.280 highlights of these No King's protesters. 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:26.240 Recently with Charlie Kirk being assassinated. 0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:28.800 They is a piece of garbage. Of course we were me. 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:30.920 I am so tired of people saying. 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:32.920 Oh, but you know, it's a terrible thing. 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:36.160 No Hitler is dead. I'm glad Hitler's dead. 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:39.840 You gotta grab a cub We gotta turn around the 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:44.720 cons on this fascist system. These ice agents gotta get 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:49.600 shot and wiped out. This stay, the stay machinery, that's 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:53.160 a fall display right there, has to get wiped out. 0:10:56.600 --> 0:11:36.319 Let younger, OK, that shirt look that shir eighty six, 0:11:36.400 --> 0:11:36.920 forty seven. 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:38.440 Explain it to me, I like. 0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:41.880 The colors killed the son of a kill Who this 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:43.160 forty seven president? 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:45.439 Really? What's your name, Dick. 0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:50.480 Shafer wants to kill the president? You know, one guy 0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:54.640 calling for ice agents to get shot, uh call, you know, 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:59.200 celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. You know, never mind the dancing 0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:03.840 and performing of stunts that they put in place. Listen, 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:07.120 there's a part of you that I know would get 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:12.120 angry at all of this, rightly and justifiably. That is 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:17.800 a normal reaction to that type of incendiary, crazy language. 0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:23.960 This is why we keep focusing on what the Democrats 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:29.480 are now doing and how dangerous their rhetoric has now become. 0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:34.120 You know, the question is to what degree is their 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:42.040 Hitler Stalin, Mussolini, racist, fascist, Nazi language now having such 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:47.920 an impact on the culture that it seems justifiable for 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:54.080 their supporters to believe that they're doing good by standing 0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:59.680 up to a duly elected president, celebrating assassination culture the 0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:03.280 way they have, and and taking this to a different, 0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:07.360 you know level every every day. I mean, this, this 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:12.320 is nothing, but you know, the they're performative stunts, but 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:16.719 words have consequences. Where are they hearing this from? And this, 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:20.760 to me is the big issue is that so called 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:23.400 leadership and there's really only leadership and name only the 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:27.079 real leadership. We know who they are. The real leadership 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:30.600 is the squad. The real leadership is Grandpa Bernie. The 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:36.679 real leadership is Pocahontas. The real leadership AOC Kasmin Crockett, 0:13:36.840 --> 0:13:40.920 and they're the ones in. Schumer and Rakeem Jeffries are 0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:44.440 scared to death of them. And you know, look at 0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:47.280 the the if you will hutzba of a guy like 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:51.440 you know zoron COMI Marxist mum Nani, you know out 0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:54.720 there with this this radical a mom with all of 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:57.920 these you know, insane statements that he's made over the year, 0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:00.960 and the support of the Black Line Shake, who was 0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:04.199 convicted of the ninety three World Trade Center bombing and 0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:09.280 embraced by and then posted by Mamdani himself. And this 0:14:09.480 --> 0:14:13.400 is now a radicalized party that has lost touch with 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:16.680 the American people. In the end, I think that this 0:14:16.880 --> 0:14:21.360 is ultimately informative for the American people to see it, 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:25.560 and they and their complicit allies and the media mobs 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:28.880 celebrate it, and they too, in their own way, encourage it. 0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:31.440 And there's nothing that Donald Trump could do. If he 0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:35.600 announced right now we have a cure for cancer, they 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:39.280 wouldn't they wouldn't celebrate it. Maybe maybe a new listener 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.200 to the show today, Oh my gosh, you're talking about 0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:45.760 sharp shooting Sean Hannity out of town. Oh my god. 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:48.160 If we have people listening to the show and they're 0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:49.440 that sensitive. 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:50.600 Turn the dial. 0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:54.800 There's a liberal station waiting for you. Okay. We don't 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.480 tell people that listen to the show to tuning the dial. 0:14:57.640 --> 0:15:00.920 You know, I only tell liberals no, only times. No, 0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:05.040 I want liberals to listen. I want them to listen. 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:08.320 Will we put liberals at the top of the colist 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:10.880 all the time? If you find the liberal, Katie, I'll 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:14.280 put them on right now. You know, liberals call in. 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:18.720 We don't mind liberals anyway. Senator Fetterman says he will 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:22.000 back the Republicans if they use the nuclear option to 0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:25.600 end this government shut down. He said he would support 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:29.120 Republicans using the so called nuclear option. I mean, he's 0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:32.680 the only one that has an understanding of the Middle East, 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:36.640 understands what has happened to Israel. You know, hundreds of 0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:40.280 thousands of rockets fired into their country. It's the size 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:44.720 of New Jersey, you know, you know, culminating in what 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:48.200 happened on October the seventh, and you know, the threat 0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:52.360 from Iran and ballistic missiles, surrounded by enemies Hamas in 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:55.760 the south and his Ballah in the north. I mean, 0:15:55.920 --> 0:16:00.160 they've had it really, really tough in Israel, very very tough. 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:04.160 And by the way, this peace process not going particularly well. 0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:08.160 And you know, the ceasefire only days old, and Hamas 0:16:08.200 --> 0:16:11.640 is now making it clear they have no intention of disarming, 0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:16.040 giving up their power, and they're assassinating the Palestinian people. 0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:18.720 By the way, where are all those liberals saying pre Palestine? 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:21.360 What about the people that are being executed on the 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:26.200 streets and in Gaza as we currently speak now, the 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:30.640 President sent out a warning again yesterday he said Hamas 0:16:30.720 --> 0:16:33.960 must be good or they're going to be eradicated. And 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:37.760 I know there are ongoing negotiations with j D and 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:41.800 Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. I don't know the ins 0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:44.280 and outs of it, but at the end of the day, 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:48.520 phase two of this peace process has been violated again 0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:52.120 and again by Hamas. Now the President is giving them 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:56.960 time as he always does, but to say obliterated, which 0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:01.520 remember they first rejected the deal. Trump's that obliterated. They 0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:03.840 came to the table. All right, then we had the 0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:07.520 release of the hostages. Now they are going rogue and 0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:11.720 trying to re establish their power, and you know, Israel 0:17:11.800 --> 0:17:14.720 is rejecting all of Hamas's excuses, saying, all right, there's 0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:16.240 only so long we're going to be able to put 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:20.360 up with this, and it will it will end one 0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:23.720 way or the other. If the ceasefire holds, the anti 0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:26.840 Israel haters will have a little rant about but you 0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:31.479 know where all the you know, pro Palestinian people, because 0:17:31.520 --> 0:17:34.120 now the killing is happening and it's at the hands 0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:38.919 of Hamas. The problem is, you know, and Victor Davis 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:41.040 Hansen has a good column about this. Who or what 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:45.639 will finally end Hamas? Hamas was born, He writes and exists, 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.960 who killed Jews and seek the destruction of Israel. It's 0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:53.520 in their charter and to some extent overthrow or subvert 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:59.359 pro Western Arab government's period. Now again, if Trump doesn't 0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:01.679 take out the any nuclear sites, none of this is 0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:05.640 possible because all of these countries in the region, Arab 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:08.040 countries in the region, were scared the death of Iranian 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:11.440 hegemony and a nuclear armed Iran. But you know, if 0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:16.240 you the only reason they have expressed a willingness to finally, 0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:19.679 after decades, get involved in a peace is because the 0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:22.520 threat of Iran has been eliminated by Donald Trump. 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:23.480 You know. 0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:26.639 But Hamas has two faces. They pledge peace, you know, 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:29.960 to mediators. You know, we'll sign onto the peace agreement 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:32.119 all right, where they had to release the hostages or 0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:35.679 it was over. They knew it. Israel had to be 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:39.080 convinced not to finish the job. And I know there 0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:42.080 was a growing backlash against Israel and the Prime Minister. 0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:45.439 I thought it was unfair because they lost forty the 0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:49.440 equivalent of forty thousand Americans in a day, their population 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:52.919 sized versus ours. And if we were hit what hundreds 0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:56.440 of thousands of rockets, if we were surrounded by enemies 0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:59.440 firing at us all the time, if we had all 0:18:59.440 --> 0:19:02.800 these Americans murdered and taken hostage, what do you want? 0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:05.280 What would you want your your your country to do? 0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:09.000 And two years you know into it, you you tell 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:12.200 your country, oh for never mind, that's not gonna fly, 0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:14.520 and they're gonna do what they have to do on 0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:19.360 the on the European front, President Trump said today that 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:22.280 there are no plans for the President and Vladimir to 0:19:22.320 --> 0:19:26.040 meet in the immediate future, which means that Trump said 0:19:26.119 --> 0:19:29.560 no to the meeting with Putin because he which was 0:19:29.560 --> 0:19:32.200 supposed to happen, he announced it might happen in Hungary. 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:37.160 And this came after Russia's top diplomats signaled, you know, 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:40.399 a wide chasm between Moscow and Washington on ending the 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:43.520 war in Ukraine, and Trump is saying no either. You're 0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:47.320 greeted this ceasefire because what Putin does is as soon 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:50.560 as they start talking peace, he just ratchets up his 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:55.120 attacks and you know, you know, even in civilian areas 0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:58.919 in Ukraine and he doesn't stop. So the you know, 0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.840 I think what got his attention and his willingness to 0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:04.360 have that long discussion last week was when the President 0:20:04.400 --> 0:20:07.720 mentioned Tomahawk missiles. Maybe he's going to take a delivery 0:20:07.800 --> 0:20:10.760 of Tomahawk missiles to NATO and then NATO gets the 0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:15.400 distributors they see appropriate before and they're paying for them. 0:20:15.480 --> 0:20:18.480 We're not paying for them. Well, you know, this is 0:20:18.480 --> 0:20:21.440 the Trump doctrine at work, and he's expending a lot 0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:23.840 of political capital to get all of this done to 0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:26.840 make the world a safer place. The killing is madness, 0:20:26.920 --> 0:20:30.600 This is insane. Putin has lost his mind. And you know, 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:34.920 I'm not saying Zelenski's perfect by any stretch of the imagination. However, 0:20:35.280 --> 0:20:39.000 he wants he wants a ceasefire. He said he's ready 0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:42.240 to join Putin and Trump in Hungary and have a 0:20:42.280 --> 0:20:46.080 negotiated settlement out of this thing, so the killing stops. 0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:50.600 So anyway, I know there has been some acrimony, in 0:20:50.720 --> 0:20:54.480 reports of acrimony. That's just basically par for the course 0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:58.960 in any negotiations like this. So the Democrats, you know, 0:20:59.000 --> 0:21:01.399 they're good, They've they've had their No King's rally, and 0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:04.359 Schumer shows up, and Corey Booker shows up, and the 0:21:04.359 --> 0:21:08.919 congenital liar shows up, and the government shutdown continues and 0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:12.920 people begin to suffer. You know, even Fake New CNN 0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:16.200 pointed out their data analysts that you know, unlike twenty 0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:19.360 eighteen and nineteen, Trump's approval rating took a major hit 0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:24.480 because of the shutdown. Everybody seems to know that the 0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:29.679 Democrats wanting one point five trillion dollars in moneies, you know, 0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:33.919 in part to pay for healthcare for Biden, Harris mayork 0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:37.880 Is illegals not gonna fly, and to pay for MPR 0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:41.040 and PBS and refund them and pay for DEI projects 0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:44.399 around the globe. Okay, that's a lot of money. You know, 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:47.520 we already are still running deficits. We have to get 0:21:47.560 --> 0:21:51.399 to a point where, you know, there's two ways for 0:21:51.440 --> 0:21:55.200 the government to balance budgets. One is you're bringing more revenue. 0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:57.639 I think the President has set this country up for 0:21:57.760 --> 0:22:00.760 that golden age. He keeps talking about, which seventeen trillion 0:22:00.800 --> 0:22:04.720 in investments by energy dominance. He made a great deal 0:22:04.800 --> 0:22:09.320 by the way, today with Australia for rarer minerals which 0:22:09.400 --> 0:22:14.040 and they are apparently ready to go immediately. And the 0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:17.159 largest tax cuts in history. Remember Reagan doubled revenues by 0:22:17.240 --> 0:22:20.119 dropping the top marginal rates from seventy to twenty eight percent. 0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:25.120 It's a myth that cutting taxes somehow adds to the deficit. 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:29.639 It does not. Even Charlemagne the God said, Democrats are 0:22:29.680 --> 0:22:31.800 losing the messaging battle on the shut down. Of course, 0:22:31.840 --> 0:22:35.040 they're losing it now that we are hitting a point 0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:39.000 where snap programs, which are you know, food stamp programs 0:22:39.040 --> 0:22:42.240 one hundred billion dollars we spend with the largest single 0:22:42.600 --> 0:22:47.200 food welfare project in the world that may be at 0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:49.800 risk if this Schumer shutdown continues. So we're going to 0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:53.880 have to watch that and watch that carefully. In other 0:22:54.040 --> 0:22:59.520 news involving the President today, which I think is important, 0:23:00.000 --> 0:23:03.320 he had an appeals court rule. I mean, this is 0:23:03.440 --> 0:23:05.960 all the lawfair what Democrats can't get done at the 0:23:05.960 --> 0:23:08.480 ballot box, but they can't get done legislatively, they just 0:23:08.560 --> 0:23:12.520 run to the courts, and the president can now officially 0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:15.040 thanks to the Ninth Circuit I believe it was the 0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:18.520 Ninth Circuit. Yeah, they ruled the Trump's National Guard deployment 0:23:18.520 --> 0:23:22.240 in Portland is legal. He can send National Guard troops 0:23:22.240 --> 0:23:25.560 to Portland to protect the ice facility there after you know, 0:23:25.560 --> 0:23:29.800 one hundred plus days of you know, violent protesters, and 0:23:29.840 --> 0:23:33.320 the appeals court ruled giving the president's administration a key 0:23:33.400 --> 0:23:38.000 legal victory to crack down on these threats on ice. Meanwhile, 0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:43.520 that idiot in Illinois JB. Pritzker is taking down barriers 0:23:43.520 --> 0:23:46.119 and fences that will put up for the safety of 0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:49.320 ice facilities, which, by the way, I don't think that's 0:23:49.320 --> 0:23:54.080 going to hold either. Steeves Goalisee, by the way, answered 0:23:54.600 --> 0:23:58.280 about the illegal alien hamas terrorists. He said, I told 0:23:58.320 --> 0:24:02.119 you this guy that they found now I've saying forever, Biden, 0:24:02.200 --> 0:24:08.040 Harris may Orcus allowed known terrorists, murderers, rapists, other violent criminals, 0:24:08.040 --> 0:24:11.240 cartel members, gang members, and drug dealers in our country. 0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:16.200 Well Scalise led the Republicans in the state delegation Louisiana 0:24:17.480 --> 0:24:19.720 and Mike Johnson. I asked them about it last night. 0:24:20.240 --> 0:24:22.880 You know, how did this Hamas terrorist that they believe 0:24:23.520 --> 0:24:28.800 is associated with October seventh reside in Lafayette, Louisiana, you know, 0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:32.000 entered the country in the US during the Biden administration 0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:35.760 in twenty twenty four. This is why I've been telling 0:24:35.800 --> 0:24:38.800 you it's a matter of when not if there are 0:24:38.840 --> 0:24:41.560 other terrorists in the country. We know they're here, we 0:24:41.640 --> 0:24:44.640 don't know where they are. That is a big problem. 0:24:44.800 --> 0:24:48.000 That is the legacy of Biden, Harris may Orcus. They 0:24:48.040 --> 0:24:50.320 already have enough blood on their hands. If there's an 0:24:50.320 --> 0:24:53.560 attack on our homeland and it's one of these known 0:24:53.680 --> 0:24:58.160 terrorists that they let in, it will be their responsibility. 0:24:59.040 --> 0:25:02.320 And all the fight against Donald Trump trying to deport 0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:06.320
