Speaker 1 (00:00):
Thanks to all of you for being with us. Wow,
(00:01):
what a busy newsday. Right down our toll free telephone number.
You want to be a part of the program, it's
eight hundred nine four one, Sean if you want to
join us.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
We've got a lot of ground to cover.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
We obviously have the situation in Minneapolis getting progressively worse.
More and more radical groups are making their way inside
of Minneapolis.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
For the purpose of stirring up trouble.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
As if it hasn't been bad enough with the officials
and they're not stopping. We'll play it later in the program,
you know, Jasmine Crockett, Congresswoman Omar, Congresswoman Diapel, Chris van
holland Eric Holder, Eric Swollwell, you know mister Feng Feng
Don Lemon, you know, is out there by the way.
(00:48):
He got a warning from the DHS. We'll get to Meanwhile,
the DHS, what have they been doing? You know, no
one disputes the fact that the death of anti ice
protester Brene Good wasn't a true of course, the loss
of human life is a tragedy. There is a lesson
to be learned from all of this. Don't take your
car and accelerate right out a law enforcement officer. Nobody
(01:13):
seems to want to, you know, focus on that reality,
that threat. Nobody in the legacy media mob is willing
to do what we have done, and that is compile
the list of people that have been arrested, the worst
of the worst. And I'm talking about murderers and rapists,
other violent criminals, child molesters, you know, gang leaders and
(01:36):
trend they are RAGUA members, and the list goes on
and on. DHS announced this morning ICE has already removed
twenty five hundred criminal illegal aliens from the streets of
Minneapolis alone, not just Minnesota. We've been scrolling the list
on TV of how many in Minnesota have been arrested
criminal illegals. That makes towns and cities all over Minnesota
(01:59):
more safe and more secure. A White House now blaming
and slamming a mob of anti ICE agitators that stormed
into a Twin Cities church on Sunday, accusing local left
wing leaders, you know, Governor Idiot Walls and Mayor Frenchfry
of inciting the chaos. You know, there's no load these
(02:20):
radical leftis won't stoop to A White House spokesperson Abigail
Johnson telling Fox News, you know, Jacob Fried Tim Walls
have whipped these riders into a frenzy and turned them
loose to wreak havoc on Minneapolis. They should be ashamed
of themselves. I don't think leftists like this have any shay.
The Trump DOJ now vowing to prosecute Minnesota's anti ICE
(02:44):
church invaders. Army Dillonzay and two prosecutors from my office
are already on their way to Minneapolis, and the Attorney
General Pam Bondi apparently talked to the pastor of this
church and vowed to prosecute anti ICE protesters that disrupt
this church service in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Attacks against law enforcement and the intimidation of Christians are
being met with the full force of federal law. If
state leaders refuse to act responsibly to prevent lawlessness, the
DOJ will remain mobilized to prosecute federal crimes and insure
the rule of law prevails. Armei Dylan, Assistant DA in
(03:25):
charge of the Civil Rights Division, said two prosecutors from
her office we're already on their way to Minneapolis. This
is going to get the highest attention from the DOJ
because there is no more sacred right in our Constitution
than the right to assemble and pray to God, and
there are federal laws that protect that right. Alina Hobbas
said BONDI would come down hard on these protesters than
(03:47):
she will. I mean, it's this sad, pathetic thing, you
know that I don't know if you saw the video,
we'll show you on TV tonight. The Democratic parties, the
illegal alien You know, lobbyists have spent the life months
complaining about ICE agents invading schools, houses of worship to
catch dangerous criminal illegals. You know, there hasn't been a
(04:08):
single documented case of ICE ever doing any of this,
but you know that's their big talking point. But we
did have, and we have video of a mob of
antiized agitators storming this church in Saint Paul, interrupting a
worship service. Videos show the agitators chanting justice for Brene
Good inside the Sanctuary at Cities Church as the service began,
(04:31):
raising concerns among law enforcement. I know more and more
people in the evangelical community, pastors that I know, people
in churches that I know, I mean that they are hiring,
they're putting in sophisticated you know technology, you know, facial
recognition even and you know security cameras, and they've they've
(04:55):
got massive security presences just for people to go to
church in peace and in safety. In this day and age,
it's insane. Ice heroes have arrested ten thousand illegals harbored
by Minnesota officials so far, according to The New York Post.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
That's I mentioned earlier. Minneapolis.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
This is Minnesota, the state you know, since the start
of the second Trump administration, three thousand cuffed in the
last six weeks alone, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
You know, they were talking about people that were killing Americans,
raping children, reigning terror of Minneapolis because French Fry and
Timmy Walls refused to protect people in their community and
(05:36):
are demonizing these officers from doing their job. Illegal alien patients.
By the way, I saw this over a billion dollars.
It's costing Texas taxpayers. You know, in California, it's billions billions.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Don Lemon, formerly of Fake News CNN, has been put
on notice by the DOJ because, apparently, according to this
report on Box New, he joined antiis agitators and he's
been posting, you know, videos online since being fired by CNN,
and I guess he's you know, planted himself in Minneapolis
(06:12):
or Minnesota somewhere. And anyway, he entered the church along
with the anti iz agitators, telling viewers that the freedom
to protest is what the First Amendment is all about.
And as Harmeid Dillon said, a house of worship is
not a public forum for your protest. It is a
space protected from exactly such acts by federal criminal and
civil laws. What is the First Amendment protector pseudo journalism
(06:36):
of disrupting a prayer service? You're on notice. Good luck
to him DJ, you know, launching this civil rights investigation
at this particular point. You know, let me, let me play.
I'll give you an example. I'm so sick and tired
of this, you know, two nights in a row on TV,
I've had fights with Democrats and I'm gonna play a
little bit of it and then maybe later in the
(06:57):
program and play the rest. Here's an agent that you
know that he said, we are here to get somebody
that is threatening long he's telling protests that we're here
to arrest the child sex offender. This is who you're
pro protecting.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Listen to this.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
We're here to arrest a child sex offender, and you
guys are out here honky.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Now what do you go?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Right there is honky and impeding our investigations. Well, we're
trying to arrest a child sex offender. That's who you
guys are protecting. Insane.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
It is insane, and that's why I've been scrolling the
list that nobody else in the media will scroll. And
Trump is the had now having to warn Minnesota officials
that he may step in to end the chaos. And
he said in a truth social post that a Minnesota
the troublemakers, agitators, insurrectionists are in many cases highly paid professionals.
(08:00):
The governor and mayor don't know what to do. They
have totally lost control and are currently being rendered useless.
If and when I am forced to act, it will
be solved quickly and effectively. You know, even though they
have no authority of the Philadelphia DA is idiot. Larry
Krasner's his name appeared alongside other local officials this week
(08:22):
criticizing ICE and threatening to arrest ICE agents. We will
arrest you, we will handcuff you, and I mean this
is madness that threatening to take away their licenses.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
They don't have the right.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
We have a constitution, we have the supremacy clause. Jurisdiction
to enforce federal law lies, and the jurisdiction lies with
the federal government. And by the way, these states that
think they're going to prosecute federal agents that have to
defend themselves, they're not going to get anywhere because if
they're in the acting in the line of duty, they
(08:56):
have no jurisdiction to do so, nor will they be
allowed to do so. It's not going to happen. It's
pretty incredible. Isn't even the New York Times? Don did
you see the New York Times? This is an interesting article.
It's not that they're They're not abusively corrupt and biased.
They are, but the New York Times, after Renee good
killing a derisive term for white women's spreads in the
(09:19):
far right. I've never heard of it before. Did you
ever hear of this before? And as the acronym awful Linda,
do you ever hear of this? I have not or
affluent white female urban liberal. I don't even know what
that means.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
But Karen's it was easier that's very mean to you,
that's very politically correct.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
You even know what a karen is. I don't know
what a karen is. I don't know what a furry is.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I don't know what. I can't keep up with this crap.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
State Department stops issuing visas for welfare defending uh uh
a welfare benefiting illegals uh and dependent illegals. And by
the way, in the free state of Florida, this lady
you know, and Jacksonville punched the a state trooper uh ro.
Just Santas goes, Now, we're not Minneapolis. You're not going
(10:09):
to get treated the same way. And the illegal from
Al Salvador charged with gunning down two North Carolina teens.
This is who they're dealing with every day. There's actually
a group of leftists now they're organizing all over these
left wing cities and states being finance. We don't know
from who in every case, but they are. You know,
(10:30):
they're creating manuals then anti ICE hotline. They're trying to
tip off the illegals and and take away the element
of surprise, putting ICE agents in jeopardy. You have lefty TikTokers.
According to the New York Post today, orchestrating groups of
women who try to bait ice agents, you know, on
(10:51):
these dating websites. I guess Tinder, I don't know Hinge
all these dating websites and then try to entice them
at flirt with him and hopefully they all send naked
pictures to each other. I mean, just as a way
of entrapping them. On Friday, on TV, I had this
(11:11):
congressman from Michigan, Shree Banadar on It went very viral
because I'm sick and tired of all this crap. And
let me just give you this is one example of
my exchange with him, and I pressed him. You know,
if he's ever, if ever once he didn't stand for
Lake and Riley and Jocelyn Nungary's family. Did you ever
(11:32):
call one family member one a victim of violent crime?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Listen?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Did you stand to honor them because the president.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
You sat on your.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You sat on your ass, and you wouldn't stand for
families of that lost children, a twelve year old girl
raped and murdered, and you couldn't stand for them because
you were playing politics.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (11:57):
I want this audience.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
You got to not stand for this president. I would
not stand for this president. If one standing for this thing,
you were standing for.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
The families that lost little girls that were murdered by
the illegal immigrants that you want to remain in the country.
Is that true or false? Look?
Speaker 5 (12:17):
Look, this president was using a tragety.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I'm not talking about it.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Write these dad, What.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
About those families? Have you ever picked up a phone,
Because there are thousands of Americans that have been murdered
and raped and victims of violent crime. Have you ever
spoken to anny? Have you ever called them off for
your condolencences? Name one family, name one family.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
Look, every every immigrant, everyone.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Of you laws.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Have you ever picked up a phone and called a
victims family?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Look?
Speaker 5 (12:51):
I I have talked to.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
My Not a hard question, not hard, Yeah, yeah, I
do you I picked your phone and called them?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Have you done that one time? Look?
Speaker 5 (13:07):
I talked with my constituents all the time. My concerts
have been tenorized by ice ices.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Have you ever.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Called an American family that has been a victim murdered, rape,
tortured by an illegal immigrant?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yes? Or no?
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Congressman, you ever showed.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
I have met people?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I am I am sure I have met people.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
I'll take that.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
As a no, I'll play more of that coming. I
grilled this guy.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
This guy voted against the bill mandating the deportation of
illegal immigrants convicted of sex crimes. I mean, this is
how mad the left has gotten out of control. Anyway,
we'll get to that coming up. Eight hundred nine point
one SHAW is the number we have the latest out
of around me of the late man the Greenland debate.
(13:55):
We got good, great economic news and much more coming up.
Eight hundred nine one US a number. We're going to
get back to this issue of ice throughout the program today.
Large protesters today, by the way, gathered inside a target
in West Saint Paul this morning singing anti ice songs
in an effort to get target official to condemn ice,
(14:16):
you know, chanting abolish ice. That's now of their new mantra.
Abolish ice, that's now the Democrats new mantra. If they
want to take that all the way to go, good
luck with that. I don't think it's going to end
very well for them. I did not know this to
be true.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Did you know?
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Is that if we have this battle over Greenland, Linda,
how much do you know about Greenland?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
You know a lot about Greenland.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I do know if you know a lot about you
know now did you know that Greenland? I had not
known this before they were Prime minister last year in
August issued a long awaited apology to the women of
Greenland and their families affected by what she called this
systematic discrimination. During the sixties and seventies, thousands of women
(15:05):
in Greenland as young as twelve were fitted with contraception devices.
Iud's in most cases, and well, we can't change what's happened,
said the Prime Minister of Denmark, but we can take
responsibility on behalf of Denmark. I want to say I'm
sorry acknowledging the victims that experienced both the physical and
(15:27):
psychological harm. The scale of the birth control program first
brought to light only a couple of years ago, but
it was like institutionalized.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Now.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
We had heard anecdotally that that if you're from Greenland
and you go to Denmark, that they discriminate against you,
they don't even like you. And so this issue, I
don't care what NATO says. I don't care NATO. Unfortunately
the President is not saying it as overtly he's mentioning it.
(15:59):
NATO is is in many ways, it has become weak
and ineffective. And the only way NATO can be successful
is if the United States is involved with NATO and
formed for all the right reasons. But Europe, you know,
they have allowed unfettered immigration without insisting on assimilation, and
(16:22):
that's now resulted in even Great Britain as eighty eighty
five Sharia courts in Great Britain. Now Sharia is the
antithesis of For example, our constitution doesn't mean people can't
practice religion, but the implementation of Sharia or living separate
and a part in a country that you go to,
(16:46):
you know, it's like you have your own country within
a country. It's insane anyway, So the President now is
looking at NATO as being weak ineffective. I don't think
Vladimir Putin fears NATO, but for the United States, and
President Trump had to force these NATO nations to step
up and start paying their fair share for national defense
(17:07):
because they're not. They're paying next to nothing, and before him,
they paid nothing and next to nothing. And President Trump
announced Saturday that is going to put a ten percent
tarify on several European allies unless Denmark agrees, you know,
to allow America to use Greenland, which would be in
(17:28):
defense of all NATO nations and it would benefit the
people of Greenland. And now the European Union's response is
to freeze a trade deal with the US and they're
threatening to use it. It's trade bazooka policies. Good luck
fighting Donald Trump. And there is, you know, a lot
(17:50):
of strategic reasons, and the President has been very clear
about them. The idea that we would we need it
for strategic defense. That's all there is to it. And
that's NATO strategic defense. If they fear, for example, Russia
and Putin, and look what's happened with the Ukraine, and
they barely wanted up their defense spending and they have
(18:15):
become weak and woke.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
And I'm telling you it is. It's bad.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
But Greenland's you know, has a very sparse population, fifty
six thousand residents living in small coastal towns, leaving the
vast interior is largely uninhabited. Greenland is roughly one person
for every one thousand soccer fields, if you want an analogy,
very sparse population. And anyway, eighty percent of the island
(18:42):
is covered in an ice sheet. And despite the small population,
they occupy a land mask comparable to many global powers.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
And you know, it is nearly.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
The size of Alaska and Texas combined, if you want
a comparison. Now, Greenland's location off Canada's northeastern coast puts
it right in the part of Arctic defense planning and
europe defense. And the US has maintained a military outposts
since nineteen fifty three and now operated by the US
(19:14):
Space Force. But Russia also maintained several military installations in
the region, and China has sought greater access since declaring
itself a near Arctic state in twenty eighty. So there's
a battle over Greenland. There's one other thing. I mean,
it is rich in rare earth minerals. And those rare
earth minerals are at the center, heart and center right
(19:35):
now of modern economies and militaries, and they allow electronics
to be smaller and more powerful and more efficient. And
their importance is even more pronounced in terms of the
necessity for national security and defense where rare earths are
used in missile guidance, radar, sonars, satellites, advanced aircraft. Now, this,
(19:58):
by the way, has been an ongoing battle this country
for a long period of time. If you look at
the world's largest rare earth deposits, they're found in China, Vietnam, Brazil, Russia, Australia, Greenland,
and the United States. But China dominates the supply chain
with about sixty percent of global mining, and that was
part of the deal that the president which China. Ted
Cruz has even pointed out. A year ago as chairman
(20:19):
of the Senate Commerce Committee, I chaired a hearing on
the benefits of the US acquiring Greenland. Now, a lot
of people just taking Donald Trump, and they don't. You'd
think after this long period of time of Trump being
you know, in you know, ten years on the world stage,
eleven years on the world stage, you might learn a
thing or two about Trump. Everything with Donald Trump as
a negotiation, he's already talked about giving everyone in Greenland
(20:43):
one hundred thousand dollars, which would make them rich because
many of the people in Greenland are poor because they've
been treated so horribly by the people in Denmark the EU.
Now this this is going to be their tough stand.
It's not even it's just a bad joke. By the way,
I got to give us. The US ambassador Mike Waltz credit.
(21:04):
They have just reduced the entire UN budget of whopping
five hundred and seventy million dollars and got rid of
nearly three thousand ridiculous jobs. Their history of burulent anti
Semitism and anti Americanism has been well chronicled on this program,
and assume by a few others. I have been telling
you that the economy is going to change. You know,
(21:27):
we have the Atlanta Fed now predicting five point one
percent fourth quarter of last year GDP growth. If you
want to go back to real GDP growth since Donald
Trump took over, remember it was in the one percent range,
and it was like zero percent under Joe Biden. And
we were, you know, close to two quarters of negative growth,
(21:48):
which would have been a recession. The third quarter GDP
because of Trump policies four point three percent fourth quarter
projections now five point one percent. You want a fantastic chart,
you know, the biggest after inflation income gain in the
last twenty years, you know, rising tide lifts, all boats.
That would be the net change in household income level
(22:14):
under Donald J. Trump since he's been in office. Yeah,
from January twenty five to November twenty twenty five, it
jumped from a whopping four three hundred and fifty six dollars.
I mean, which is you know, that makes up for
a lot of lowest gas prices, lowest implation we've seen.
We see interest rates coming down. You have you know,
(22:36):
trillions and committed moneys from manufacturing. You have the largest
tax cuts in history, rising wages out pacing inflation in
twenty twenty five, new home sales with the drop in
and for sale of pre existing homes with the drop
in interest rates. Now, Art Laffer says the last three
quarters under Donald Trump have showed incredible economic growth of
(23:00):
the smartest economists out there, you know, pointing out real
average hourly wages up we whopping one point one percent
compared with the year earlier Bureau of Labor Statistics. Real
estate sector now is seeing improvement. Existing home sales up
five point one percent in December, largest monthly gain ever.
We have the smallest trade deficit that we've had. Morgan
(23:23):
Stanley Analysts forecasting now strong economic growth, lower inflation for
twenty twenty six, told you all these people, well affordability. Uh,
let's see where the economy is when when voters go
for midterm elections. December, retail monitors saw data saw a
surge and growth as consumers continued prioritizing holidays, spending December
(23:45):
sales figures, you know, we're four point two percent higher
than a year earlier. US manufacturing production rose in December.
That's just the beginning because with one hundred percent depreciation
for manufacturing, that means that all those trillions that the
president secured for semiconductors and for pharmaceuticals and rare earths
(24:07):
and automobile manufacturing, that's all going to get online because
they get to deduct it almost immediately. We will get
to this showdown. Look, if these Iranian mullas want to
be stupid, I'm okay with them being stupid, because Iran
is now threatening to resume protester executions. Go ahead, make
(24:29):
Donald Trump's day. If you want to underestimate Donald Trump
and his word, you have at it, because I'm telling
you right now he's not going to allow the murder.
He's said help will be on the way. Then they stopped,
and then we were told that they were backdoring. Oh no,
we don't mean what we say publicly. I thought the
(24:49):
funniest thing that happened in Iran this weekend, and we'll
get into more of this coming up at the top
of the next hour than later in the show. Multiple
Iranian state TV channels were hacked and the Crown Prince
Raisa Paul Lave you know, clips of him, you know,
went out instead on Iranian you know, state run television.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
I thought that was hilarious.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
And you know, there is now a concerted effort the
US Navy's Abraham Lincoln aircraft carriers headed towards Iran. Iran
is accused of killing anywhere from twenty to thirty thousand
people if they start these executions that they had they
said they stopped. And Donald Trump, I'm sure John that
the CI director Ratcliffe will find out if that happens.
(25:39):
I bet all bets are off and I wouldn't be
surprised if something happens this week's this week.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
And by the way, this will have a.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Pround, a huge, rippled, rippling effect with Beijing in Moscow
because they've always wanted you know, remember it was you know,
Russian operatives that helped depose the Shaw and bring back,
bring in the Iranian and usher in the Iranian Revolution
in nineteen seventy to nine with the Ayatola Komani.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
So we'll watch that.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
General Keane warning a RAN's leadership, you better take Trump
at his word, all his military assets and now in
the area moving into its proper formation. We'll see what happens.
The President will head to Davos this weekend as the
World Economic Form invites the Iranian foreign minister as well.
That ought to be pleasant. Good luck with that person
(26:31):
if they run into President Trump. I'm sure he'll give
him an earful. What else do we have happening? There's
so much going on. By the way, the CIA director
John Ratcliffe has met with Venezuela's acting president demandsheet and
support for trende Arragua good.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I like that. I think we need to do that too.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
There's so many, so much happened in the new I
don't even know how we keep up with all of this,
you know, the fake news media. Do you think that maybe, well,
should I play this entire exchange with this congressman later
in the program, Linda, I mean, it was hotly completely
viral on Friday, and you even like wrote me a.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Plus plus plus plus plus, like it was a record
for you. Yeah, I can't stand that guy. So you
did a great job. That's what I score. I mean,
you know, a plus plus plus is like, you know,
one hundred and thirty eight. So nice job, that said,
one hundred and thirty eight. That's all.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Yeah, you know you have to keep them for another segment,
really bash them to get to one hundred and fifty.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Maybe we'll let the audience vote on it. We'll put
we'll put scores. But it did go viral and show
you know why, because I'm really it's not contrived.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
I am pissed.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I am pissed that they're putting the lives of these
law enforcement in jeopardy. I am pissed off that they
are fanning the flames of unrest. I am pissed off
that they don't appreciate all the murderers and rapists and
child molesters that they've been arrested. Things to these guys,
I am no appreciation for law enforcement.
Thanks to all of you for being with us. Wow,
(00:01):
what a busy newsday. Right down our toll free telephone number.
You want to be a part of the program, it's
eight hundred nine four one, Sean if you want to
join us.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
We've got a lot of ground to cover.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
We obviously have the situation in Minneapolis getting progressively worse.
More and more radical groups are making their way inside
of Minneapolis.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
For the purpose of stirring up trouble.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
As if it hasn't been bad enough with the officials
and they're not stopping. We'll play it later in the program,
you know, Jasmine Crockett, Congresswoman Omar, Congresswoman Diapel, Chris van
holland Eric Holder, Eric Swollwell, you know mister Feng Feng
Don Lemon, you know, is out there by the way.
(00:48):
He got a warning from the DHS. We'll get to Meanwhile,
the DHS, what have they been doing? You know, no
one disputes the fact that the death of anti ice
protester Brene Good wasn't a true of course, the loss
of human life is a tragedy. There is a lesson
to be learned from all of this. Don't take your
car and accelerate right out a law enforcement officer. Nobody
(01:13):
seems to want to, you know, focus on that reality,
that threat. Nobody in the legacy media mob is willing
to do what we have done, and that is compile
the list of people that have been arrested, the worst
of the worst. And I'm talking about murderers and rapists,
other violent criminals, child molesters, you know, gang leaders and
(01:36):
trend they are RAGUA members, and the list goes on
and on. DHS announced this morning ICE has already removed
twenty five hundred criminal illegal aliens from the streets of
Minneapolis alone, not just Minnesota. We've been scrolling the list
on TV of how many in Minnesota have been arrested
criminal illegals. That makes towns and cities all over Minnesota
(01:59):
more safe and more secure. A White House now blaming
and slamming a mob of anti ICE agitators that stormed
into a Twin Cities church on Sunday, accusing local left
wing leaders, you know, Governor Idiot Walls and Mayor Frenchfry
of inciting the chaos. You know, there's no load these
(02:20):
radical leftis won't stoop to A White House spokesperson Abigail
Johnson telling Fox News, you know, Jacob Fried Tim Walls
have whipped these riders into a frenzy and turned them
loose to wreak havoc on Minneapolis. They should be ashamed
of themselves. I don't think leftists like this have any shay.
The Trump DOJ now vowing to prosecute Minnesota's anti ICE
(02:44):
church invaders. Army Dillonzay and two prosecutors from my office
are already on their way to Minneapolis, and the Attorney
General Pam Bondi apparently talked to the pastor of this
church and vowed to prosecute anti ICE protesters that disrupt
this church service in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Attacks against law enforcement and the intimidation of Christians are
being met with the full force of federal law. If
state leaders refuse to act responsibly to prevent lawlessness, the
DOJ will remain mobilized to prosecute federal crimes and insure
the rule of law prevails. Armei Dylan, Assistant DA in
(03:25):
charge of the Civil Rights Division, said two prosecutors from
her office we're already on their way to Minneapolis. This
is going to get the highest attention from the DOJ
because there is no more sacred right in our Constitution
than the right to assemble and pray to God, and
there are federal laws that protect that right. Alina Hobbas
said BONDI would come down hard on these protesters than
(03:47):
she will. I mean, it's this sad, pathetic thing, you
know that I don't know if you saw the video,
we'll show you on TV tonight. The Democratic parties, the
illegal alien You know, lobbyists have spent the life months
complaining about ICE agents invading schools, houses of worship to
catch dangerous criminal illegals. You know, there hasn't been a
(04:08):
single documented case of ICE ever doing any of this,
but you know that's their big talking point. But we
did have, and we have video of a mob of
antiized agitators storming this church in Saint Paul, interrupting a
worship service. Videos show the agitators chanting justice for Brene
Good inside the Sanctuary at Cities Church as the service began,
(04:31):
raising concerns among law enforcement. I know more and more
people in the evangelical community, pastors that I know, people
in churches that I know, I mean that they are hiring,
they're putting in sophisticated you know technology, you know, facial
recognition even and you know security cameras, and they've they've
(04:55):
got massive security presences just for people to go to
church in peace and in safety. In this day and age,
it's insane. Ice heroes have arrested ten thousand illegals harbored
by Minnesota officials so far, according to The New York Post.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
That's I mentioned earlier. Minneapolis.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
This is Minnesota, the state you know, since the start
of the second Trump administration, three thousand cuffed in the
last six weeks alone, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
You know, they were talking about people that were killing Americans,
raping children, reigning terror of Minneapolis because French Fry and
Timmy Walls refused to protect people in their community and
(05:36):
are demonizing these officers from doing their job. Illegal alien patients.
By the way, I saw this over a billion dollars.
It's costing Texas taxpayers. You know, in California, it's billions billions.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Don Lemon, formerly of Fake News CNN, has been put
on notice by the DOJ because, apparently, according to this
report on Box New, he joined antiis agitators and he's
been posting, you know, videos online since being fired by CNN,
and I guess he's you know, planted himself in Minneapolis
(06:12):
or Minnesota somewhere. And anyway, he entered the church along
with the anti iz agitators, telling viewers that the freedom
to protest is what the First Amendment is all about.
And as Harmeid Dillon said, a house of worship is
not a public forum for your protest. It is a
space protected from exactly such acts by federal criminal and
civil laws. What is the First Amendment protector pseudo journalism
(06:36):
of disrupting a prayer service? You're on notice. Good luck
to him DJ, you know, launching this civil rights investigation
at this particular point. You know, let me, let me play.
I'll give you an example. I'm so sick and tired
of this, you know, two nights in a row on TV,
I've had fights with Democrats and I'm gonna play a
little bit of it and then maybe later in the
(06:57):
program and play the rest. Here's an agent that you
know that he said, we are here to get somebody
that is threatening long he's telling protests that we're here
to arrest the child sex offender. This is who you're
pro protecting.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Listen to this.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
We're here to arrest a child sex offender, and you
guys are out here honky.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Now what do you go?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Right there is honky and impeding our investigations. Well, we're
trying to arrest a child sex offender. That's who you
guys are protecting. Insane.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
It is insane, and that's why I've been scrolling the
list that nobody else in the media will scroll. And
Trump is the had now having to warn Minnesota officials
that he may step in to end the chaos. And
he said in a truth social post that a Minnesota
the troublemakers, agitators, insurrectionists are in many cases highly paid professionals.
(08:00):
The governor and mayor don't know what to do. They
have totally lost control and are currently being rendered useless.
If and when I am forced to act, it will
be solved quickly and effectively. You know, even though they
have no authority of the Philadelphia DA is idiot. Larry
Krasner's his name appeared alongside other local officials this week
(08:22):
criticizing ICE and threatening to arrest ICE agents. We will
arrest you, we will handcuff you, and I mean this
is madness that threatening to take away their licenses.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
They don't have the right.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
We have a constitution, we have the supremacy clause. Jurisdiction
to enforce federal law lies, and the jurisdiction lies with
the federal government. And by the way, these states that
think they're going to prosecute federal agents that have to
defend themselves, they're not going to get anywhere because if
they're in the acting in the line of duty, they
(08:56):
have no jurisdiction to do so, nor will they be
allowed to do so. It's not going to happen. It's
pretty incredible. Isn't even the New York Times? Don did
you see the New York Times? This is an interesting article.
It's not that they're They're not abusively corrupt and biased.
They are, but the New York Times, after Renee good
killing a derisive term for white women's spreads in the
(09:19):
far right. I've never heard of it before. Did you
ever hear of this before? And as the acronym awful Linda,
do you ever hear of this? I have not or
affluent white female urban liberal. I don't even know what
that means.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
But Karen's it was easier that's very mean to you,
that's very politically correct.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
You even know what a karen is. I don't know
what a karen is. I don't know what a furry is.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I don't know what. I can't keep up with this crap.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
State Department stops issuing visas for welfare defending uh uh
a welfare benefiting illegals uh and dependent illegals. And by
the way, in the free state of Florida, this lady
you know, and Jacksonville punched the a state trooper uh ro.
Just Santas goes, Now, we're not Minneapolis. You're not going
(10:09):
to get treated the same way. And the illegal from
Al Salvador charged with gunning down two North Carolina teens.
This is who they're dealing with every day. There's actually
a group of leftists now they're organizing all over these
left wing cities and states being finance. We don't know
from who in every case, but they are. You know,
(10:30):
they're creating manuals then anti ICE hotline. They're trying to
tip off the illegals and and take away the element
of surprise, putting ICE agents in jeopardy. You have lefty TikTokers.
According to the New York Post today, orchestrating groups of
women who try to bait ice agents, you know, on
(10:51):
these dating websites. I guess Tinder, I don't know Hinge
all these dating websites and then try to entice them
at flirt with him and hopefully they all send naked
pictures to each other. I mean, just as a way
of entrapping them. On Friday, on TV, I had this
(11:11):
congressman from Michigan, Shree Banadar on It went very viral
because I'm sick and tired of all this crap. And
let me just give you this is one example of
my exchange with him, and I pressed him. You know,
if he's ever, if ever once he didn't stand for
Lake and Riley and Jocelyn Nungary's family. Did you ever
(11:32):
call one family member one a victim of violent crime?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Listen?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Did you stand to honor them because the president.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
You sat on your.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
You sat on your ass, and you wouldn't stand for
families of that lost children, a twelve year old girl
raped and murdered, and you couldn't stand for them because
you were playing politics.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (11:57):
I want this audience.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
You got to not stand for this president. I would
not stand for this president. If one standing for this thing,
you were standing for.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
The families that lost little girls that were murdered by
the illegal immigrants that you want to remain in the country.
Is that true or false? Look?
Speaker 5 (12:17):
Look, this president was using a tragety.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I'm not talking about it.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Write these dad, What.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
About those families? Have you ever picked up a phone,
Because there are thousands of Americans that have been murdered
and raped and victims of violent crime. Have you ever
spoken to anny? Have you ever called them off for
your condolencences? Name one family, name one family.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
Look, every every immigrant, everyone.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Of you laws.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Have you ever picked up a phone and called a
victims family?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Look?
Speaker 5 (12:51):
I I have talked to.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
My Not a hard question, not hard, Yeah, yeah, I
do you I picked your phone and called them?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Have you done that one time? Look?
Speaker 5 (13:07):
I talked with my constituents all the time. My concerts
have been tenorized by ice ices.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Have you ever.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Called an American family that has been a victim murdered, rape,
tortured by an illegal immigrant?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yes? Or no?
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Congressman, you ever showed.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
I have met people?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I am I am sure I have met people.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
I'll take that.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
As a no, I'll play more of that coming. I
grilled this guy.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
This guy voted against the bill mandating the deportation of
illegal immigrants convicted of sex crimes. I mean, this is
how mad the left has gotten out of control. Anyway,
we'll get to that coming up. Eight hundred nine point
one SHAW is the number we have the latest out
of around me of the late man the Greenland debate.
(13:55):
We got good, great economic news and much more coming up.
Eight hundred nine one US a number. We're going to
get back to this issue of ice throughout the program today.
Large protesters today, by the way, gathered inside a target
in West Saint Paul this morning singing anti ice songs
in an effort to get target official to condemn ice,
(14:16):
you know, chanting abolish ice. That's now of their new mantra.
Abolish ice, that's now the Democrats new mantra. If they
want to take that all the way to go, good
luck with that. I don't think it's going to end
very well for them. I did not know this to
be true.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Did you know?
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Is that if we have this battle over Greenland, Linda,
how much do you know about Greenland?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
You know a lot about Greenland.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I do know if you know a lot about you
know now did you know that Greenland? I had not
known this before they were Prime minister last year in
August issued a long awaited apology to the women of
Greenland and their families affected by what she called this
systematic discrimination. During the sixties and seventies, thousands of women
(15:05):
in Greenland as young as twelve were fitted with contraception devices.
Iud's in most cases, and well, we can't change what's happened,
said the Prime Minister of Denmark, but we can take
responsibility on behalf of Denmark. I want to say I'm
sorry acknowledging the victims that experienced both the physical and
(15:27):
psychological harm. The scale of the birth control program first
brought to light only a couple of years ago, but
it was like institutionalized.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Now.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
We had heard anecdotally that that if you're from Greenland
and you go to Denmark, that they discriminate against you,
they don't even like you. And so this issue, I
don't care what NATO says. I don't care NATO. Unfortunately
the President is not saying it as overtly he's mentioning it.
(15:59):
NATO is is in many ways, it has become weak
and ineffective. And the only way NATO can be successful
is if the United States is involved with NATO and
formed for all the right reasons. But Europe, you know,
they have allowed unfettered immigration without insisting on assimilation, and
(16:22):
that's now resulted in even Great Britain as eighty eighty
five Sharia courts in Great Britain. Now Sharia is the
antithesis of For example, our constitution doesn't mean people can't
practice religion, but the implementation of Sharia or living separate
and a part in a country that you go to,
(16:46):
you know, it's like you have your own country within
a country. It's insane anyway, So the President now is
looking at NATO as being weak ineffective. I don't think
Vladimir Putin fears NATO, but for the United States, and
President Trump had to force these NATO nations to step
up and start paying their fair share for national defense
(17:07):
because they're not. They're paying next to nothing, and before him,
they paid nothing and next to nothing. And President Trump
announced Saturday that is going to put a ten percent
tarify on several European allies unless Denmark agrees, you know,
to allow America to use Greenland, which would be in
(17:28):
defense of all NATO nations and it would benefit the
people of Greenland. And now the European Union's response is
to freeze a trade deal with the US and they're
threatening to use it. It's trade bazooka policies. Good luck
fighting Donald Trump. And there is, you know, a lot
(17:50):
of strategic reasons, and the President has been very clear
about them. The idea that we would we need it
for strategic defense. That's all there is to it. And
that's NATO strategic defense. If they fear, for example, Russia
and Putin, and look what's happened with the Ukraine, and
they barely wanted up their defense spending and they have
(18:15):
become weak and woke.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
And I'm telling you it is. It's bad.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
But Greenland's you know, has a very sparse population, fifty
six thousand residents living in small coastal towns, leaving the
vast interior is largely uninhabited. Greenland is roughly one person
for every one thousand soccer fields, if you want an analogy,
very sparse population. And anyway, eighty percent of the island
(18:42):
is covered in an ice sheet. And despite the small population,
they occupy a land mask comparable to many global powers.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
And you know, it is nearly.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
The size of Alaska and Texas combined, if you want
a comparison. Now, Greenland's location off Canada's northeastern coast puts
it right in the part of Arctic defense planning and
europe defense. And the US has maintained a military outposts
since nineteen fifty three and now operated by the US
(19:14):
Space Force. But Russia also maintained several military installations in
the region, and China has sought greater access since declaring
itself a near Arctic state in twenty eighty. So there's
a battle over Greenland. There's one other thing. I mean,
it is rich in rare earth minerals. And those rare
earth minerals are at the center, heart and center right
(19:35):
now of modern economies and militaries, and they allow electronics
to be smaller and more powerful and more efficient. And
their importance is even more pronounced in terms of the
necessity for national security and defense where rare earths are
used in missile guidance, radar, sonars, satellites, advanced aircraft. Now, this,
(19:58):
by the way, has been an ongoing battle this country
for a long period of time. If you look at
the world's largest rare earth deposits, they're found in China, Vietnam, Brazil, Russia, Australia, Greenland,
and the United States. But China dominates the supply chain
with about sixty percent of global mining, and that was
part of the deal that the president which China. Ted
Cruz has even pointed out. A year ago as chairman
(20:19):
of the Senate Commerce Committee, I chaired a hearing on
the benefits of the US acquiring Greenland. Now, a lot
of people just taking Donald Trump, and they don't. You'd
think after this long period of time of Trump being
you know, in you know, ten years on the world stage,
eleven years on the world stage, you might learn a
thing or two about Trump. Everything with Donald Trump as
a negotiation, he's already talked about giving everyone in Greenland
(20:43):
one hundred thousand dollars, which would make them rich because
many of the people in Greenland are poor because they've
been treated so horribly by the people in Denmark the EU.
Now this this is going to be their tough stand.
It's not even it's just a bad joke. By the way,
I got to give us. The US ambassador Mike Waltz credit.
(21:04):
They have just reduced the entire UN budget of whopping
five hundred and seventy million dollars and got rid of
nearly three thousand ridiculous jobs. Their history of burulent anti
Semitism and anti Americanism has been well chronicled on this program,
and assume by a few others. I have been telling
you that the economy is going to change. You know,
(21:27):
we have the Atlanta Fed now predicting five point one
percent fourth quarter of last year GDP growth. If you
want to go back to real GDP growth since Donald
Trump took over, remember it was in the one percent range,
and it was like zero percent under Joe Biden. And
we were, you know, close to two quarters of negative growth,
(21:48):
which would have been a recession. The third quarter GDP
because of Trump policies four point three percent fourth quarter
projections now five point one percent. You want a fantastic chart,
you know, the biggest after inflation income gain in the
last twenty years, you know, rising tide lifts, all boats.
That would be the net change in household income level
(22:14):
under Donald J. Trump since he's been in office. Yeah,
from January twenty five to November twenty twenty five, it
jumped from a whopping four three hundred and fifty six dollars.
I mean, which is you know, that makes up for
a lot of lowest gas prices, lowest implation we've seen.
We see interest rates coming down. You have you know,
(22:36):
trillions and committed moneys from manufacturing. You have the largest
tax cuts in history, rising wages out pacing inflation in
twenty twenty five, new home sales with the drop in
and for sale of pre existing homes with the drop
in interest rates. Now, Art Laffer says the last three
quarters under Donald Trump have showed incredible economic growth of
(23:00):
the smartest economists out there, you know, pointing out real
average hourly wages up we whopping one point one percent
compared with the year earlier Bureau of Labor Statistics. Real
estate sector now is seeing improvement. Existing home sales up
five point one percent in December, largest monthly gain ever.
We have the smallest trade deficit that we've had. Morgan
(23:23):
Stanley Analysts forecasting now strong economic growth, lower inflation for
twenty twenty six, told you all these people, well affordability. Uh,
let's see where the economy is when when voters go
for midterm elections. December, retail monitors saw data saw a
surge and growth as consumers continued prioritizing holidays, spending December
(23:45):
sales figures, you know, we're four point two percent higher
than a year earlier. US manufacturing production rose in December.
That's just the beginning because with one hundred percent depreciation
for manufacturing, that means that all those trillions that the
president secured for semiconductors and for pharmaceuticals and rare earths
(24:07):
and automobile manufacturing, that's all going to get online because
they get to deduct it almost immediately. We will get
to this showdown. Look, if these Iranian mullas want to
be stupid, I'm okay with them being stupid, because Iran
is now threatening to resume protester executions. Go ahead, make
(24:29):
Donald Trump's day. If you want to underestimate Donald Trump
and his word, you have at it, because I'm telling
you right now he's not going to allow the murder.
He's said help will be on the way. Then they stopped,
and then we were told that they were backdoring. Oh no,
we don't mean what we say publicly. I thought the
(24:49):
funniest thing that happened in Iran this weekend, and we'll
get into more of this coming up at the top
of the next hour than later in the show. Multiple
Iranian state TV channels were hacked and the Crown Prince
Raisa Paul Lave you know, clips of him, you know,
went out instead on Iranian you know, state run television.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
I thought that was hilarious.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
And you know, there is now a concerted effort the
US Navy's Abraham Lincoln aircraft carriers headed towards Iran. Iran
is accused of killing anywhere from twenty to thirty thousand
people if they start these executions that they had they
said they stopped. And Donald Trump, I'm sure John that
the CI director Ratcliffe will find out if that happens.
(25:39):
I bet all bets are off and I wouldn't be
surprised if something happens this week's this week.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
And by the way, this will have a.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Pround, a huge, rippled, rippling effect with Beijing in Moscow
because they've always wanted you know, remember it was you know,
Russian operatives that helped depose the Shaw and bring back,
bring in the Iranian and usher in the Iranian Revolution
in nineteen seventy to nine with the Ayatola Komani.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
So we'll watch that.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
General Keane warning a RAN's leadership, you better take Trump
at his word, all his military assets and now in
the area moving into its proper formation. We'll see what happens.
The President will head to Davos this weekend as the
World Economic Form invites the Iranian foreign minister as well.
That ought to be pleasant. Good luck with that person
(26:31):
if they run into President Trump. I'm sure he'll give
him an earful. What else do we have happening? There's
so much going on. By the way, the CIA director
John Ratcliffe has met with Venezuela's acting president demandsheet and
support for trende Arragua good.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I like that. I think we need to do that too.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
There's so many, so much happened in the new I
don't even know how we keep up with all of this,
you know, the fake news media. Do you think that maybe, well,
should I play this entire exchange with this congressman later
in the program, Linda, I mean, it was hotly completely
viral on Friday, and you even like wrote me a.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Plus plus plus plus plus, like it was a record
for you. Yeah, I can't stand that guy. So you
did a great job. That's what I score. I mean,
you know, a plus plus plus is like, you know,
one hundred and thirty eight. So nice job, that said,
one hundred and thirty eight. That's all.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Yeah, you know you have to keep them for another segment,
really bash them to get to one hundred and fifty.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Maybe we'll let the audience vote on it. We'll put
we'll put scores. But it did go viral and show
you know why, because I'm really it's not contrived.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
I am pissed.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I am pissed that they're putting the lives of these
law enforcement in jeopardy. I am pissed off that they
are fanning the flames of unrest. I am pissed off
that they don't appreciate all the murderers and rapists and
child molesters that they've been arrested. Things to these guys,
I am no appreciation for law enforcement.
