Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning a cooner country. Okay, my friends, this is
an incredible moment right now. They are very close in
the House of Representatives for the final vote. You've got
Hakeem Jeffries, the House Minority leader. I saw that loser,
and he's just droning on and on and on. The

(00:24):
guy will just not shut up. It's been about an
hour now and it's the same thing. Tax cuts for
the rich, tax cuts for the rich. This kicks everybody
off Medicaid. People are gonna die. I mean, it's the
same hysteria, panic, porn, lies, manipulation, probaenda, It's the same.

(00:45):
It's the same stick, over and over again. But here
is now where things stand. The big beautiful bill is
about to be. The final vote is about ten, fifteen,
twenty minutes away. They passed procedural vote after procedural vote,

(01:05):
way into the night. They have finally gotten now to
the brink. Now here is the absolute latest, because it
is high drama. Thomas Massey, Kentucky Republican, self avowed libertarian
an ally of Rant Paul, claimed yesterday that he had

(01:26):
a block of ten Republicans. Now, remember, in the House,
the Republican majority is very thin. Narrow, razor thin two
twenty to two twelve, so all Republicans can afford are
three defections. A fourth defection, i e. If a fourth

(01:48):
Republican votes know on this bill, because all the Democrats
are united against it, then the Big Beautiful Bill fails.
It will be tanked, it will be killed, it goes down.
And as I said on X last night, and I
was very very serious about it, if the bill goes down,

(02:11):
I believe Trump's presidency is on the line. This would
be a humiliating blow to Trump. This would severely weaken him.
It would completely upend his domestic agenda because the Big
Beautiful Bill has about eighty to eighty five percent of
Trump's campaign promises and priorities squeezed into it. I know

(02:36):
there are parts of it, the pork, the excessive spending.
There's no question it's not a perfect bill. There were
problems with the bill. But there's so much good in
the bill, and it's the heart of Trump's agenda. It
will extend permanently the twenty seventeen tax cuts, no tax

(02:59):
on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on factory construction.
In other words, just economically, it is going to lead
to a massive boom in the United States. Economic growth
is going to soar. You're gonna see millions of jobs created.

(03:19):
Wages are gonna go up. Literally, it's going to bring
manufacturing back, investment back, business confidence back. It is going
to be rocket fuel, jet fuel for the American economy.
On top of that, you have by far the largest

(03:39):
immigration crackdown in history in the bill. The bill funds
the border wall completely. Not only that it will hire
thousands and thousands of ice agents, but border patrol agents,
construct countless detention facilities to deport millions of illegal aliens.

(04:06):
This bill passes, we now have the means to truly
reverse and repel Biden's border invasion. Now, on these two
provisions alone, I think you passed the bill. There's much
more in it that's extremely good. But what I'm saying
is just on the border, on immigration, and on the economy.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
To me, you pass the bill now.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Massey said that he had a block of ten Republicans
as of nine o'clock last night. The treason is ten,
as I call them, we're holding out, many of them
threatening to bring down the big beautiful bill. They don't
care if it destroys Trump's presidency. They don't care that

(04:55):
if the bill does not pass, it will lead next
year to a four trillion dollar tax increase for trillion
with a P. That means individuals, you and I, our
taxes are going to go way up. Businesses, your taxes

(05:16):
are going to go way up. It is going to
be like a sledgehammer to the economy and most likely
it will tip the entire country into recession, and the
Republicans will be blamed. And politically, it is going to
be a disaster for the Republicans in the midterms. So
as Trump now has been telling them in meeting after meeting,

(05:39):
you don't vote for the big beautiful bill, you're basically
committing political economic suicide for the country, for your reelection
and for the Republican majority and for the Republican Party. Now,
Massy bragged yesterday last night that he has his block,

(06:01):
that he got more than four to break the bill
to kill it.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
He had ten.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
However, Trump, jd Vance and Mike Johnson began a pr
arm twisting phone call offensive in which apparently Trump was
taking call after call, making call after call. He had
members of the Freedom Caucus, which is more conservative. They

(06:29):
want deeper spending cuts. He slowly began to turn one
after another after another in favor of the bill. So
some of the moderates who had other concerns about medicaid
and doesn't cut too much in medicaid, Trump reassured them,
it will get rid of most illegal aliens off of medicaid,

(06:52):
that's it, and waste, fraud and abuse. It does not
cut medicaid for American citizens nothing. That's a lie. It's
a left wing lie, a media democrat lie. And so
as they went through the bill one by one, Massey's
block of ten began to fall. They finally broke through

(07:17):
at three point thirty this morning with a procedural vote.
They now are on the about to vote on the
final bill. It is history in the making. This is
my prediction. I think they have the votes. Obviously, I'm
praying they have the votes. I hope they have the votes,
but I think now they have the votes. Now, let

(07:39):
me just say this, because we're looking at a monumental
at a monumental moment, a watershed moment for the country,
and a watershed moment now for Trump and the Trump presidency.
Thomas Massey and whoever else ends up voting no on
this bill. Their careers need to be finished. This is

(08:05):
not just a betrayal of Trump. It is a betrayal
of the American people. It is a betrayal of the voters.
It is a betrayal of the people who elected Trump
in November, and ultimately it is a betrayal of his
own constituents. What Thomas Massey is doing and Ran Paul

(08:26):
and Susan Collins and Tom Tillis is they have now
voted to sabotage and bring down Trump's presidency. Make no
mistake about it. Voting against the Big Beautiful Bill and
collaborating with the Democrats means not just sinking the bill

(08:48):
and raising taxes through the roof and probably sparking or
triggering a recession, but it also means, from their point
of view, fundamentally got Trump's ability to govern and setting
up the Democrat takeover of the House and even the
Senate in the midterm elections, where the Democrats will launch

(09:11):
investigation after investigation and will begin impeaching Trump, most likely
three times to top the two times they.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
Impeach them before.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
These are political judases, and as I said on X
last night, you vote, you vote, against the big beautiful bill.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
If you vote against it, we are going to remember.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
The voters are not going to forget it, and we
are going to primary you, every single one of you,
and your careers are going to be over. Your name
is going to be mud because we will not allow you.
The American people, we are not going to allow you
Maga Cooner country. We will not allow you to torpedo

(10:03):
Trump's presidency. We have Trump's back. We voted for tax cuts.
We want them. We voted for no taxes on tips
and over time, we want them. We voted to finally
secure the border and deport all of the illegal aliens
under Biden. We want them, We're gonna get them. We

(10:28):
want energy independence. We want to raise oil and natural
gas production to the point that we're gonna have two
dollars a gallon gasoline and our energy and electric bills
are going to go down by half. That's what we
voted for. That's what we want. We want to rebuild

(10:49):
our military, That's what we voted for.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
That's what we want.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Six one seven two six, six sixty eight sixty eight
is the number President Trump now literally on the brink.
They are now still debating, but it's the final debates.
Hakim Jeffries has been going at it now for over
an hour. He's obviously just trying to prolong and prolong

(11:16):
and prolonged. I just want is this guy gonna shut up?
Because once he shuts up, they get to vote, and
this will be the final vote on the Big beautiful Bill.
Johnson is confident, Trump is confident. But it's not over
until it's over. So you know, fingers crossed now, just
very very quickly. Listen now to Hakim Jeffries, Democratic Leader

(11:41):
in the House, House minority leader saying it's a twenty
twenty to twenty twelve majority that the Republicans have. It
is one of the slimmest majorities ever. All we need
are four Republicans. The GOP can take three losses, three
defections and still pass it by one vote. But if

(12:03):
the Democrats, if they can pick up four Republicans who
are willing to cross the aisle and vote against passage
of Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, it goes down, and in
many ways, so does Trump's presidency. Listen now to Hakim
Jeffries saying, we're doing everything we can to entice and

(12:28):
if you know, and attract these Republicans to come over
and stab the President and his voters right in the
back roll Cut one, Mike.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
I was with President Nixon on his last trip to China,
which was extraordinary, Miranda, given that twenty years before he
had opened the door to China and changed the entire
global calculus. But certainly us signo.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
U, that's I think.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
I think that's yeah, Monica Crowley, like on Fox yesterday.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Okay, Mike, do we have cut one?

Speaker 4 (13:13):
We are here today united as House Democrats to make
clear to the American people that every single House Democrat
will stand up for your healthcare, stand up for your Medicaid,
stand up for your Medicare.

Speaker 5 (13:28):
Stand up for the Affordable Care Act, stand up for
nutritional assistance for our children, our seniors, and our veterans.
Stand up for our hospitals, stand up for our nursing homes,
stand up for our community based health senates, and stand
up against massive tax breaks for GOP billionaire donors. And

(13:49):
that is why every single House Democrat will vote hell
no against this one big, ugly bill.

Speaker 6 (14:03):
And all we need are four House Republicans to join
us in defense of their constituents who will suffer mightily
from this bill.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
That's the question. Now, can they get four, that's the question.
Massey is a hard no. Now as for the treason
is ten some of them are not going to vote
for the bill. What surprised me are some of the
names on that list of ten Republicans who were behind
Massy in sabotaging the bill, voting against it, at least initially.

(14:37):
That's last night. Lauren Bobert. Lauren Bobert initially was one
of the ten. Now apparently her phones have been deluged,
absolutely flooded with calls with people not just in her
district but around the country saying, you are going to
have the mother of all primaries if you vote against
this bill. So and Biggs another one, Maga conservative, but

(15:03):
he says he's a no. Now it looks like he
may be a yes. But now, let me just I
can tell you this with absolute certainty. Trump met with
many of them in his office, and he was able
to turn many of them around. And from what sources
were saying in the media, and these members of Congress

(15:24):
admitted it, it wasn't arm twisting. It wasn't him threatening
or cajoling or yelling or screaming. They said he used
a soft touch, that he appealed to their patriotism, He
appealed to his election, he appealed to the voters. He apparently,
according to all of them, is apparently very much into

(15:46):
weeds in the policy of the bill, in the details
of the bill. What are the policies, what is going
to be the consequences, what's.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
In the bill?

Speaker 1 (15:57):
And apparently he went straight almost chapter and verse saying no, no, no, no,
you're being misinformed on this. No, no, listen, look here,
we're not going to do that. Here, I promise you. Apparently,
he did say that some of the things the Senate
did take out from the original House version that was
passed over a month ago, he is going to make

(16:19):
sure that it gets passed in the future, or that
he will issue it through an executive order. So that
seemed to allay quite a few of these naysaying Republicans, now,
nothing is over, as I said, until it's over. Many
of you are texting the cooner man saying, Jeff, I

(16:39):
got a bad feeling. This vote seems to be going
on forever, and the longer it goes on, the more
time there is for people to switch their minds or
change their minds and potentially vote against the president on this.
So we're going to have to wait and see. Now,
listen to Speaker Mike Johnson. He's been up all night.

(17:03):
In fact, he's been up the last couple of nights.
He's been with Trump trying to convince some of these
dissident Republicans, the Republicans who are planning to vote against it,
to switch their vote. Listen to what he's saying. The
approach they decided was not pressure, and it wasn't threats

(17:25):
or blackmail. Apparent they said the pressure was sorry, the
approach was no pressure, and let's just do everything we
can to answer questions and leave it up to their conscience.
And I think really the strategy is let Kooner Country

(17:45):
and other voters like US supporters like Trump, send in
the emails, send in the letters, make the phone calls,
and let the people lobby them and let them know
what the consequences will be if they don't vote for
the BBB and if they God forbid sync the BBB.

(18:08):
Listen now to Speaker Johnson. Roll cut twenty, Mike.

Speaker 7 (18:15):
Wow, to go through the changes. Have everybody fully processed
that and figure out what that means for them in
their districts, and that's part of the process. So no
huge pressure here. We're allowing these conversations to continue. Chad
was right, I might keep it open a little while
because I have among those no votes, I've got a
couple of folks that are actually off site right now,

(18:37):
had to attend the family affairs or events this evening,
and so some of them are on the way back,
and then a couple of others we're having still some conversations.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
So now I just want to play one more cut,
and then I want to get to your calls.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
I promise.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight
is the number. A couple lines are open. This cut,
the we just played of Johnson was what eleven o'clock
last night, eleven thirty, almost midnight last night. Uh So
we have a couple of other cuts from third three
thirty this morning. So they had they just waited them out,

(19:15):
these procedural votes to finally get to this final vote,
and one of them, it was opened for seven hours,
literally seven hours. Six one seven two, six, six sixty
eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, I got butterflies
in my stomach. I'm not gonna lie to you. I'm
on pins and needles. Right now, the House is wrapping

(19:37):
up debate. They are going to vote final vote. Literally,
this is it on the big beautiful bill. If the
vote passes, If the bill passes, forgive me the vote.
I believe it's going to be I think two fifteen
is the magic number. If they get to two fifteen
or two sixteen, uh, it's it's It's Trump's victory. The

(19:59):
bill will become law. Well, it's going to go to
President Trump's desk and then he will sign it and
it will be one of the most consequential, singular achievements
of Trump's entire presidency, no question about it. It sets
the table for the next three and a half years,
I believe the next ten years, but definitely the next

(20:22):
three and a half years. The question now is we
know there are going to be Republican holdouts. There were
at least ten last night. Some are now a yes.
They have gone from a no to a yes. The
question now is they need Democrats need to pick off four,
just four, so Mike Johnson can afford to lose three Republicans.

(20:45):
But if he loses a fourth the bill goes down,
and honestly, I believe Trump's presidency will be in serious, serious,
serious danger. Listen now to Mike Johnson again. This was
on Fox midnight or whatever, eleven thirty last night. So
he's been he's been working the phones talking to members.

(21:06):
He said, I just just got off the phone with
President Trump about an hour ago, and all he's asking
me now is who can I call? Give me a no,
give me a Republican that is against this bit, against
the BBB. I want to talk to that person and
see if I can change that person's mind. Roll cut
twenty six, Mike.

Speaker 7 (21:29):
And in fact, he called me most recently about an
hour ago and said, who else needs to have a discussion.
I'm ready to get on the phone as a miss President,
You've done your job and we'll do ours. Here. I mean,
he is. He has been fully a participant in this
whole thing, and that's such a refreshing thing for members
of Congress to know that you have a commander in
chief who is so engaged like that and helping carry

(21:51):
the ball over the line. It's really been a great
working relationship in the whole the cabinet, and we had
Cabinet secretaries engaged today in conversations, answering questions in their areas.
I mean, it's just an incredible team in the White
House and the Congress as well. So we are going
to get this job done. Everybody will celebrate together, but
the real celebration will be by the American people because

(22:13):
they're going to see the effects of this quickly and
it's going to be a great thing for the whole country.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
I agree, I really I agree.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Uh, that's why I'm I'm to me, you got to
pass this bill for many reasons. Now let me just
say one other thing, and then I want to go
to the phone lines. The President has been completely engaged.
He's using his charm offensive, he's answering questions, He's immersed
into details. As I said of the bill, he's answering
you know, he's literally saying, what are your concerns? And

(22:42):
he will point chapter and verse in the bill saying, Okay, no, here,
I'm telling you you're being mis're fed you're being fed misinformation. No,
that's only half true. Let me tell you the rest
of the story. So and apparently it has worked. The
persuasive approach, the persuasion approach how managed to flip at
least four or five of this block of ten.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
So it's close. It is very close.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Now, remember the first time around, when they passed it
as it went to the Senate, it was by one
vote in the Senate. Just a couple of days ago.
It took jd Vance to be the tie breaking vote
in fifty one fifty. This may be history repeating itself.
This if it does pass, it may pass by just

(23:30):
one vote. So it is now on a razor's edge.
Six one seven two six, six sixty eight sixty eight.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Am I the only one?

Speaker 1 (23:42):
This is the president's agenda. This is eighty five percent
of what Trump campaigned on and its top priorities are
in this bill. It's mostly, you know, eighty five to
ninety percent of what the American people voted for is
in this bill.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
And he's getting this much resistance.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
From Republicans, potentially handing Democrats not just a major victory,
but a devastating blow to Trump's presidency and his domestic
agenda within six months of him being inaugurated. Like, this
is what I mean about Republicans. They're like the gang
that just can't shoot straight because they're just too busy

(24:26):
shooting at each other?

Speaker 2 (24:27):
Am I wrong?

Speaker 1 (24:29):
This should be a slam dunk for the president. It
should be two hundred and twenty. We've got the votes
with a comfortable margin. Everybody's going to vote for this.
Let's move on instead. I mean it's I mean, it's
like pulling teeth to get these recalcitrant, obstinate, stubborn Republicans

(24:55):
to go from a no to a yes? Six one, seven,
sixty eight, sixty eight. Do you like the big beautiful bill?
Should it pass? Do you think it will pass? That's
now the question. Are you nervous? Lou in Rhode Island?
You're gonna kick us off? Lou, Thanks for holding and welcome.

Speaker 8 (25:19):
Yeah, happy before the July Jeff.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Happy fourth of July to you and your family.

Speaker 9 (25:22):
Lou.

Speaker 8 (25:23):
I hope you have a great time tomorrow. Remember that
diet coke.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
You gotta have that diet coke.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah, no, I'm definitely having diet coke tomorrow. We're having
hamburgers hot dogs on the barbecue and Ashton says he's
gonna grill it.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
So all right, Ashton, go ahead, son.

Speaker 8 (25:44):
Well you gotta watch the wait. You know you gotta
have that diet Coke. I mean, but anyway, anyway, look,
this is serious. Two and forty nine years ago, actually
as of yesterday, the Conel Congress put their lives, they
put their actual lives on the line to vote for
the declaration of independence. What was it that that Ben

(26:08):
Franklin said, either we will all hang separately or we
will all hang together. And we look at these gulls
Republicans now that they've got you know, I mean, it's
ridiculous that that they that that they can't look at
the significance of this and and fathom the importance of
this bill, that that changes America, closes the borders, and

(26:30):
stimulates the economy. I've been listening to Cuddler lately and
he said, all those you had lots of benefits, the growth,
they are going to reduce some spending that it lowers
the now spending and percentage of the GDP. I mean,
I mean, it's going to be It's an amazing, amazing bill,
maybe one of the greatest bills that ever came down
the pike in the in the US Congress. And and

(26:53):
I agree with you, look at these recalcias Republicans. They're idiots,
They're just idiots, and they are actually the ones who
do vote against it all have to be primary and
kicked out.

Speaker 9 (27:02):
And you know the other.

Speaker 8 (27:03):
Thing is is that, especially this week, when we see
the future of the country with out of Donald Trump
and we see Zoran Mandami, that's the future. If this
goes down the Democrats all of a sudden, you give
them a shot in the arm. And then who's their
leader now, I mean he's their big leader, him in
AOC Is that the future we wanted? Do we want

(27:24):
a future of the big beautiful Bill. I'll take the
big beautiful Bill and I'll take Donald Trump any day
of the week. And I can't see where the republic
or the Republicans are like this. As a matter of fact,
it was really ironic that yesterday in the news that
I saw that both Bush and Obama were crying about USA.
Did you see that?

Speaker 2 (27:43):
I did? No, I did.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
It was unbelievable. Well, that's the gravy train, that's the
money where they used to bribe people both around the
world and here in the United States. So you know
that's and again, so Trump's cutting them off at the knees,
and that's why they're crying.

Speaker 8 (27:58):
Loop right, these people, these deficit hawks. Pass the bill,
and then you can start having hearings and starting going
after the corruption. After that, there's a lot of stuff
that probably does need to be cut, but now it's
not the time you can you can cut it. Like
right after that, you know, they have they have three
years more of Trump to start cutting and cutting and

(28:19):
cutting and getting rid of the waste, fraud and abuse
in in in government. But this time they the government
the country.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
Needs Oh you're dead on. Look, the country wants it.
The country needs it. Six one seven two six, six
sixty eight, sixty eight is the number.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
Okay, uh he's still talking, is I swear? This is unbelievable?

Speaker 1 (28:41):
So Hakeim Jeffries, you want to talk about a puffed
up win back? This guy he started at five, literally
at five this morning. So everybody, everybody's in the house,
everybody's in the House of Representatives.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
This is it.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Now they're gooding. He finishes his stupid speech, they're gonna vote.
So you know, it's been like, you know, almost two hour,
an hour, fifty minutes, Like, come on, wrap it up already,
And how many ways can you say the same thing
over and over again?

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Anyway?

Speaker 1 (29:11):
So this guy is just droning on and on. And
the thing is, you can tell it's all staged. It's
because the Democrats. You know, he's standing and speaking, you
can see all the Democrats behind him, they're all talking
to each other, like nobody's even listening to him. So
the Republicans aren't listening to him, the Democrats aren't listening
to him. And there he is, moving his hands back

(29:34):
and forth, acting like I don't know what he's cicero.
You know, he's making some kind of a profound, brilliant,
eloquent speech. And you can tell it's just string it along,
drag out the clock, drag out the clock, and almost
like we're gonna make them suffer. We're gonna make them
sit here for hours and hours and hours hoping that
you know, somebody who was in know went back to

(29:57):
a yes, but maybe that yes will be back.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
No, it's just you know, just just you know.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
Just keep extending and extending and extending. Anyway, This is
a brilliant text that I got. You can text the
cooner man seven zero four seven zero seven zero four
seven zero. This is from seven to eight one, and
I think really hits the nail on the head. Jeff
years ago, I was an emergency medical technician when re

(30:30):
arrived at an accident scene. Our training was drilled into us.
Establish an airway, in other words, a way to breathe.
Without that, the patient dies, no matter what other injuries
need attention. I look at the big beautiful bill this

(30:50):
very same way. The provision in the bill for the
border and deportations is that airway. Without it, the patient
meaning the country dies, very literally dies. Everything else can
be attended to afterwards. What is wrong with these Republican holdouts?

Speaker 2 (31:16):
Brilliant?

Speaker 9 (31:18):
Look?

Speaker 1 (31:18):
I said this a couple of days ago. I'm going
to say it again. Just on the immigration crackdown, the
border enforcement, and the deportations alone. You vote for this, Billy,
warts and all. Why because it stops the invasion cold permanently,

(31:40):
and it gives Trump and Ice and DHS now all
of the resources, all of the mindpower, all of the
tools and equipment that they need. Literally one hundred and
seventy billion dollars. There is more in this bill for
mass deportations and sealing the borders then actually goes to

(32:04):
the military. That's not a criticism. The military gets a
lot one hundred and fifty billion. But Trump is so
serious he says, no, no, every illegal alien out that
was brought in by Biden out out. So give me
a budget where we can deport fifteen to twenty million illegals.

(32:29):
So it does this?

Speaker 2 (32:32):
What are we discussing?

Speaker 9 (32:33):
Man?

Speaker 1 (32:35):
And these guys are like, well, we should cut a
little bit more out of medicaid. Well, you know, I
swear to se what they're arguing. Well, the House version
raises the debt limit four trillion. The Senate version raises
the death limit five trillion. I'm like this, this is
the hill you want to die on. So we've got

(32:57):
a thirty seven trillion dollar now national debt. Hey, look,
we're never gonna pay this thing off.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
What are we getting?

Speaker 1 (33:03):
So whether you add another four trillion or another five trillion, you.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
Know, I don't think.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Ah, you know, I don't think at this point. Oh,
forty one trillion, we can do it. We can do it.
But forty two trillion, No, No, that's gonna that's gonna
break her back.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
You look at.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
These people and like, what planet are you living on? Anyway, Look,
we're gonna see what's gonna happen. The economy is gonna
boom and the reason why Trump wanted it by July fourth. Yes,
it's symbolic Independence Day, no question. Okay, patriotic bill, patriotic Day,

(33:48):
patriotic victory. But the bigger reason, and he's been saying
this for months now, it's gonna take you know, it
takes time for the economy to really take off. It
takes time for a bill it's all of its provisions
and policies to begin to bite and take effect. He goes,

(34:09):
I want the economy booming by next year as we
sail into the midterms, so we can either at a
minimum hold our majorities or better yet, expand our majorities.
But he's like, guys, I'm not going to keep thinking
around here until October and November and December. And even

(34:29):
if we get it passed by the end of the year,
it's the effects of this aren't going to be felt
for months and months and months. The economy now needs
a massive injection. This bill gives it that injection. And

(34:49):
with this economic boom, combined with border enforcement and the
mass deportations, and complete and utter energy independence and massive
oil and natural gas drilling driving down the cost of gas,
driving down the cost of energy, and then completely rebuilding

(35:10):
and restockpiling our military. Never mind the fact that it
kicks one point four million illegal aliens off of medicaid,
off of medicaid. So they got that in the final
Senate bill. They managed to get it in. And so

(35:31):
you know, that's why Trump is saying, guys, there's some
serious reforms in medicaid that are going to be very
good for the country. One point four million illegal aliens
will be kicked off the rolls of medicaid. And that's
why he's looking at them and he's like, don't let perfect,

(35:52):
you know, don't let perfection, what you think is perfect,
be the enemy of the good.

Speaker 2 (35:58):
This is a very good bill, very good bill.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
And it contains most of what I campaigned campaigned on
and what I promised voters and what I was elected
to enact. So get out of our way. The voters
voted for this. Give the voters what they want. Agree, disagree.
Jim in Kingsborough, Thanks for holding Jim, and welcome.

Speaker 10 (36:29):
Yeah, how are you.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
I'm good? How are you? Jim?

Speaker 11 (36:32):
Uh?

Speaker 10 (36:33):
Okay, I'm all right, just a rough morning as usual. Yeah,
I'll tell you, Jeff does they had better pass this
bill because I'll tell you, I'm a man of my word,
and I spent my lifetime. I mean, I worked, I
played by the rules all the way through my entire life.

(36:53):
And I'll tell you this saw this wishy washing thing
going on, you know. I mean, I mean, I'm a
man of my word, Jeff, And I can tell you
right now, I mean I haven't got much time, but
because of my Almas, however, whatever I've got left, if
they don't pass this bill, I am going to make

(37:15):
them pay. I am going to go after them, and
I am going to ruin them all around the board.
I really, I don't I whatever it takes, I just
I've had I've had it beyond my forehead. I mean,
this is ridiculous. I mean, we pay tax dollars in
this country. I've been paying, you know what I mean,

(37:37):
I didn't pay the support they want to be votes,
you know, through the illegal system of letting them over
our border and everything else. I mean, everything that Trump
has been fighting for is correct and it's positive for
this country. But if they keep this up, what was
what is the United States of America will be the

(38:00):
Ununited Okay, and the Ununited is going to come out
and people are gonna get hurt, real bad. I mean,
I can see it coming, I can taste it, I
can see it, and it's frightening. You know, nobody wants war,
but if they want a civil war, god damn it,
they're gonna get it.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
Well, you know, Jim, look, you can see Look. Let
me put my cards on the table. Okay, as the
Germans would say, or as I prefer to say, one
of my favorite expressions is, let me be brutally honest
with you, like I'm in the confessional. They hate Trump,
the Republican establishment despises him. You can take this to
the bank. Rand Paul personally loads Trump. He can't stand him.

(38:42):
He's jealous of him, he's envious of him. He's petty,
he's vindictive. Massy's basically his little poodle. Okay, he's in
the car, he's in the house. Rand Paul's in the Senate.
But that you know, Massi's out to sink Trump on
behalf of Rand Paul.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
That's what this is about.

Speaker 8 (39:00):
Out.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
And so you've got some of these rhinos who think
they can be a hero in Washington if they blow
up this bill and with it blow up Trump's presidency
and That's ultimately what this is all about. Because if
you look at this bill objectively, again, does it add
too much to the debt, no question.

Speaker 2 (39:21):
Does it spend way too much money? No question?

Speaker 1 (39:24):
But look when do they not spend too much money?
I mean, I'm not excusing it, you know me, I'm
just saying, you know, see, look, if these were Republicans
that fought the Democrats tooth and nail, I mean, they
fought Obama and they fought you know, they fought Pelosi,
and they fought Schumer, and they fought Biden or whatever

(39:47):
whoever was running Biden's you know, uh presidency if he
you know, if they if they fought him tooth and nail,
I'd say, well, okay, I mean that's their principles. You know,
they believe in fiscal responsibility and balanced budget and you know,
a fine I would I would respect them for that.
But no, how many times have they all voted to
vote to raise the debt ceiling? How many times have

(40:09):
they caved and capitulated again and again and again and
again and again. That's what I told Grace last night.
It was like it was midnight. I mean I was
up way past midnight. I'm like, when are they going
to vote on this thing? I mean, this is one
of the most important moments, frankly in our lives, certainly
in Trump's presidency. But I think the impact of this

(40:29):
is going to be immense for our children, for our grandchildren.
And now, all of a sudden, with the narrowest of majorities,
I'm talking razor thin majority, now, all of a sudden,
they go, well, we want to reform the welfare state.
That's what some of them are saying. What with with

(40:53):
with a three vote majority in the House. No, No,
we want to reform Medicaid, we want to reform medical care.
We want to reform all these big spending programs. Buddy,
that's not what Trump ran on number one, number two,
good luck. No, they want to put in these massive
spending cuts because they know that the rhinos in the

(41:18):
House then will not vote for the bill, and so
that will sink the bill. They're not serious. Suddenly now
they're all born again deficit hawks.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
Suddenly. Now all these guys who rolled over for Biden,
rolled over for Obama, rolled over for Pelosi. Now all
of a sudden, now they're like, you know, political gihatists.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
That's just about the debt, the deficit. No, it's about
stopping Trump. That's what this is all about. Now, you're right,
if they know what's good for them. As I said
on X, I said, no, no, there's no need for violence.

(42:02):
Your careers are over. But it's not just that your
careers are over, because we're gonna primary you. We're never
gonna forget your names. Your names are gonna be mud.
Do you understand you're gonna be Your names are going
to be at Peh, They're gonna be mud. You will
go down in infamy because here's what you did. You

(42:27):
stopped the biggest tax cuts in the history of the
United States. That's what you stopped. You stopped one of
the greatest economic booms that's about to hit us. You're
trillions of dollars in investment. I'm talking about rising wages
now for middle working class people. I'm talking about driving

(42:51):
unemployment down to less than three percent. You are gonna
see an economic golden age that is gonna.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
Marvel the world.

Speaker 1 (42:58):
That's what this bill is gonna deliver. And it will
finally finally secure our border and finally begin to repel
the invasion that Joe Biden allowed. It defends the homeland. Now,
I can give you a million other reasons why to

(43:18):
vote for it, but on these two issues alone, peace
and prosperity, how could you not vote for this? So look,
I'm sorry. They're losers. These people, I'm telling you, they're losers.
And we're gonna there's gonna be a few that are
going to vote no. The only question now is can

(43:39):
they peel off four? But every single one now that
votes no, persona non Grada and the Republican Party out out. Honestly,
I'm tired of these judases and you know, and great,
I gotta say this again. My wife was right as usual, Okay,
as usual, she said to me.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
Notice the Democrats never have this problem. Ever. Have you
noticed that, Jim ever? Ever?

Speaker 1 (44:04):
Oh my god, they passed the most atrocious bills. I mean,
this is a phenomenal bill. This bill is gonna help
almost every American. But their bills, all they do is
screw us. But man, they're thickest thieves. Oh, I'm telling you,
it's it's easier for me to run a marathon. Okay,

(44:26):
and I can't run a marathon. But let's say I
tried to run a marathon. It would be easier for
me to run a marathon than to peel one Democrat
away when they vote to just get one our side.
He had twenty roused Republicans against him. The second descentdate
passed the bill. They didn't even have a chance to celebrate.

(44:46):
You know, fifteen minutes, we've fifty one to fifty. You
had twenty House republic I'm not voting for this.

Speaker 2 (44:54):
Shun it back. We won't even look at it.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
And so the president of the United Sli States writing
a massive mandate in November has to beg House Republicans.
He has to beg them, practically, call them up to
the White House, schmooze them, you know, I offer him
food and drink and slap them on the.

Speaker 2 (45:17):
Back, and what do you want? What do you need?
Let me explain it to you.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
And then all this poor guy does is work around
the clock, you know, almost like one member of Congress,
one Republican per hour. Okay, what can I do for you? Okay,
Lauren Bobert, what can I do for you?

Speaker 2 (45:39):
I thought you were my supporter, Now you're not.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
What's the problem anyway, This guy's still talking, Honest to God,
this guy, this this this I've never seen anything like this.
This and you know everyone behind them, they're just they're
just all talking to themselves. I've never seen this anyway, Jim,

(46:05):
You're completely right. This is a great bill. And look,
we're not going to take no for an answer. As
I said on X We've got Trump's back, and I
want every Republican to know that every Republican now in
the House should know we are going to remember and
we're not going to forget. If you know what's good
for you, vote yes, Jim. Thank you so much for

(46:28):
that call, and have a great Fourth of July. Jenny
in Whalan. Thanks for holding Jenny, and welcome.

Speaker 11 (46:37):
Thank you for taking my call. And happy almost Independence Day.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Yes, Happy Independence Day, thank you, Jenny.

Speaker 11 (46:45):
I'm calling because I want I know they all listen
to your show, and i want to send them my
message loud and clear, and I'm going to say it
slowly to them, a little nervous. I voted for President
Donald J. Trump, not because I agree with him, but

(47:07):
because he agreed with me. He wants to and he's
going to and he did secure our borders and close them,
stop runaway inflation. Peace in the world, Support Israel, reopen
the Keystone Pipeline so we can be independent energy again.

(47:31):
Stop a sentinel and the drugs from coming in and
killing our Americans. Rebuild our military, honor the Constitution, and
respect parents' rights. And as he did, and I'm so proud,
keep men out of women's locker rooms, bathrooms and sports.

(47:54):
I am praying and I am urging them to vote
for this bill because I want them to know we
are watching you and the red wave is stronger than ever.

Speaker 1 (48:11):
Thank you, Jeff, Thank you, Jenny very well said, really
well said Sal in Wakefield. Thanks for holding sal and welcome.

Speaker 9 (48:21):
I just want good morning, jeffre. I want to jump
on what you said about the Democrats always sticking together.
We've said this, I've said it to you on the
phone before. It's the Inflation Reduction Act was nothing but
a payout to the Green New Deal. It did nothing
for the working middle class tax players of this country.

(48:43):
It was a horrible bill it passed. You got to
hand it to them. They stick together no matter what,
no matter what. It's amazing to.

Speaker 1 (48:54):
Me, Sally, I have to tell you, and that, by
the way, that goes for the communists as well. I
really I'm just telling you. You know, from my parents'
background and my grandfather, my father would always say this.
He'd shake his said, he goes, man, do goes. I
gotta give him their you know, I got to give
the devil their due. These commies always stick together. They always,

(49:16):
I mean they may have their disagreements behind closed doors,
but soald they were the same in the old country.
They man, they I mean like they were like two
peas in a pod. You just couldn't pry one loose.
And then the Democrats are the same and our side.
It's just it's incredible, it really is. And you know,

(49:38):
they love the division. They love the bickering, they love
the arguing, they love the grand standing. You know. That's
what Trump said. He said, it's like I'm dealing not
with members of Congress, but with peacocks. Like they they
love to show their feathers, instruct their stuff and act
all important. And they're gonna make this point and they're
gonna make that point, and they're gonna make this point.

(50:00):
And Trump says, well, the country's burning, and he's like,
you know, what is it about more jobs that you
don't like? What is it about? You know, a massive
economic boom? That you don't like rising wages. People are
on their backs. People can't pay their bills. They need help.
They need this economy to be turned around fast. Trump's like,

(50:23):
what's wrong with you. We're going to lower grocery prices,
we're gonna lower gas prices, we're gonna lower energy prices.
I'm gonna put more money in people's pocket, working class people,
what's wrong with you,
