Speaker 1 (00:00):
I do just round up in Information Overload Hour. Here's
(00:02):
our toll free telephone number if you want to be
a part of the program. It's eight hundred and ninety
four one Sean if you want to join us. So
I had a great time this weekend. I didn't have
a lot on the schedule, which for me is like
very rare, and Ainsley and I went to see the
new movie Millennia. It is now the best documentary release
(00:22):
in like twenty years. It's an incredible success after her
number one best selling book. And it was a pack
theater and it was great to have a pack there.
I always like to sit in the back row and
I just like to take it all in. And the
reaction of people in the theater at different moments was
fascinating to me. When President Trump came on at different
(00:46):
times and was being President Trump, people would laugh, and
they when Joe Biden was shown, I mean, the level
of people just mocking him was hilarious. At the end
of the movie, the entire theater or clapped and it
was so well done.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
But it showed grace, it showed elegance.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I looked at the New York Post review and said,
Malania is a study in what Ernest Hemingway called grace
under pressure, the amount of detail that goes into representing
our country on the world stage, and her level of
detail is second to none. Her taste, her class, or
grace was on display the entire movie. If you haven't
(01:33):
seen the movie, I strongly urge you to go see it.
It's a movie theaters around the country. Here's the trailer.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
On January thirtieth.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Everyone wants to know.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
So here it is twenty days in her life.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I will move forward with purpose, and of course week's.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Time witness history in the making.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
I feel energized to serve the American peak. Up here
we go again.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Maybe one of the funnier scenes in the movie is
when President Trump is practicing for his inauguration speech. Milania
sat in on part of that session and gave him
a couple of lines. And when he actually gave that
speech and used her to the lines that she gave him,
he turned and points to her, which I thought was
(02:25):
very loving. I've been around them together. They are a
very loving couple, funny in ways that I think most
people don't know privately. And it's been an honor to
get to know her all over these many years, and
it's an honor to have her back on the program.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Malania, welcome back, Thank you, thank you for having me.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
I really should say, Madam first Lady, let's get it right.
I mean I should know better.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Okay, It's okay, Milania is okay?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Were you surprised that this was the biggest documentary that
has been released nearly two decades now?
Speaker 3 (03:02):
We are having a great success. And I'm very proud
to say this never seence for moments of my life,
including my family and business, during twenty days leading up
to the US presidential inauguration, and this is historic. This
story was never told before, and I believe American people
(03:27):
and people all around the world they should witness this
incredible work and the amount of planning and behind the
scene work that is required to shift private life to
become first Lady. Again, it's not an easy task, you know.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
I want you maybe to explain that a little bit
more detailed, and certainly you have this great eye for fashion,
but you bring it to every aspect of what it
means to be a first Lady, and you rightly point
out it's the twenty days leading into the inauguration, correct.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
And I provided the creative direction for all of the
elements of the film from the details that you see
in the films, also then for marketing campaigns, so you know,
it's a lot of work that goes behind the scene.
But I had a great team around me and Brett Ratner.
(04:32):
He put together awards winning team and crew, so the
work that we did was really one of a kind
that was never told. And Brett's record speaks for itself.
He's the very talented director. And I hope everybody will
(04:52):
go to see it because it's a history we are
all in together.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
It really does bring you behind the scenes because the
public does not know the amount of detail that goes
into all of these events and the amount of planning
and your attention to that detail. Do you enjoy that
aspect of the job?
Speaker 3 (05:17):
It was, It is, and it was my life at
that period of time, and I'm a very detail oriented person.
I'm very selective what I do. I know what I
like what I don't like. But camera was following me
from morning till evening, so everything what you see in
the movie, it's real, and it's always one take. Because
(05:44):
behind I have a big production a lot of people,
so it's not able that we will say, let's turn
around all of the cars and let's do it again.
The Secret Service was involved of all of the planning
behind the scenes, advance team was involved. So it's a
(06:07):
big production.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Well, let's talk a little bit.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I mean, it was very evident in the film that
you have a deep, abiding love for your family and
your mom who had passed away not that long ago,
and your father was a big part of the movie.
But you know, when you grew up in Slovenia, did
you ever imagine you would be the first lady of
the United States?
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Not once, but twice.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
I never thought about that. I start, I was born
in Slovenia. I had a beautiful childhood. My mother and
father provide incredible stuff for me and my sister. And
then I moved to Milan and Paris, and in nineteen
ninety six I arrived to New York. I established my
life in New York City, and I then met my husband,
(06:58):
became also a US citizen, and then established my business
in the United States. And later in twenty seventeen, we
arrived to the White House. Incredible journey, incredible life story,
and I'm very proud of my story.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
What is different this time around?
Speaker 3 (07:21):
It is very different because we have much more support
and there is no knows when you would like to
achieve something. I had incredible first year in my office
in the East Wing, in First Lady Office. I championed
for Take a Down Act and it was signed into
(07:45):
a new law that enhanced federal online protections for children
from online deep fakes. I led an Executive Order on
Fostering the Future, which unites federal sources reach innovative public
and private sector partnerships to provide more pathways to success
(08:08):
for young people who have experienced faster care. Also, I
launched Presidential Artificial Intelligence Talent and we had twenty thousand
students an educators involved and signed in. Very proud of that. Also,
(08:29):
I secured thirty million for housings to support foster children
as well. Today incredible news. Today marks the third reunifications
since I have been working strategically with both nations, with
RASA and Ukraine to unified the children. So today we
(08:53):
had another six children reunified with their families and guardians.
It's a lot of work that we are doing and
fantastic work and we're having a great success.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
The amazing.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Part of that story to me is that you initiated
a direct conversation with Vladimir Putin to make that happen,
the reunification of Ukrainian and Russian children and families.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
You made that happen directly.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
I did.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
I did. My husband gave my letter to President Putin.
I heard from him back right away, and we start
to communicate and we have success, and I have no
doubt that more progress will come and we are working
on it to ruinify more children in the near future.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
One of the tougher scenes to watch for me during
the movie. And you know, I've been friends with your
husband for a long time. Obviously, the assassination attempting Butler
and then another would be assassin at Trump International, and
you've got to think of of his security, parent security.
(10:02):
And by the way, Baron is such a great kid.
I've had many conversations with your son. He's brilliant, absolutely
beyond the oppressive. And I know I give you most of
the credit, not the president, but in all seriousness, I
could just tell that this has had a very deep
impact on you as a wife and as a mother.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
Yes, it did have, And the summer was not the same.
The life was never the same. You always think about
security of your family. That's why I brought it up
at the meeting. Everything could be seen in the film
and to be living in the dangerous times. So for me,
(10:45):
the security of my family, it's very important. And you
know what happened last year, A family went through a lot.
But we are strong and we love our country. So
here we are back and serving and that is what
(11:06):
is important to us.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Well, it's another amazing thing too, and I guess trumps
arrangement syndrome is a real thing because people that go
to see the movie, you had a ninety nine percent
approval rating. Ninety nine percent. That's almost unheard of in
the movie business. But the critics that lean left, they
(11:28):
were telling people they didn't like it. But everybody at
the theater, it's very rare that I've been to a
movie where people clap at the end of the movie.
So I thought that was very impressive and I wanted
to pass.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
That on to you.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
The audience loves it. We have a score A and
ninety nine percent of people loving it, so that all
what it matters that people speaks and the opposition will
always be negative. They are dividing, and it's sad to
(12:05):
see that, but the number speaks for itself.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
You have that grace and that confidence, and that comes across.
It's very cool because I don't think anybody could really
identify with or relate to. Okay, in twenty days, I'm
going to be the first lady of our country. Again,
in twenty days, your husband is going to be the
president of the United States. It's the most important country
on the face of this earth. And it really did
(12:30):
a great job capturing the behind the scenes and brought
us into that world and what that would be like.
And I was just fascinated by all of it. What
do you have planned for the future? Now you're a
number one New York Times bestselling author, number one documentarian,
you're rescuing children and where these reunifications are happening. You
(12:52):
had to take it down act fostering the future act.
And your husband is probably driving you crazy. Building that
one big, beautiful ballroom, well.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
All of the the ballroom and all of the stuff
in the White House. That the changes that are made,
that is my husband's vision. He's doing it, and I'm
focused on fostering the future together that I established during
the United Nations General Assembly. It's a global coalition of
(13:22):
First spouses and of nations to help children to grow,
to learn, and to drive through the safe and innovative
views of advanced technology. So I will have in the
spring the summit here in the White House with the
(13:43):
other spouses from all around the world, and I'm working
on that. I am working on many other projects. We
are having a beautiful dinner plan for United Kingdom is
coming here His Majesty and a lot of behind the
(14:04):
scene work that you need that I need to do.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
So.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
I have many other ideas and I hope one day
they will come to life as well. But for now
we are hands are full.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
It was It was a fascinating documentary. I loved every
minute of it. Getting to know you and your family
has been an honor of my life. I'm sorry about
all that your family has to take on. Sometimes it's
difficult to watch. It's painful, but you all do it
with such grace and dignity, and I hope everybody takes
(14:38):
time goes to a theater near you.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
It's called Malania.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
The documentary, the top grossing documentary in the last two decades.
We really appreciate you taking time, Madam first Lady to
be with us today.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
Thank you, thank you, you too, Thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Okay, eight hundred and ninety four one Shawn is a
number if you want to be a part of the program, Linda,
When I talked to the President First Lady, which occasionally
I do, uh, together, I am so hard on the
President until it's actually hilarious.
Speaker 5 (15:08):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
And I've known her a long time. You know, English
is here six language? Is it six?
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Us? I think it's a six language.
Speaker 6 (15:15):
She speaks more than one language. Is more than I
can say for most of the people that are out
there bashing her on a regular basis, I mean they
have to catch up to try to swing at her.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Maybe me a studio Espanol in escuelas, I'm like porquito Spanol.
Speaker 6 (15:32):
Poquito or not porquito. You're appsent the day they talkd poquito.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
We get it, all right? Are you done? Never to learn?
It could go for hours. I learned.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
I learned more Spanish the years that I worked in
restaurants and guys that spoke Spanish that were in the restaurants.
Speaker 6 (15:50):
It's the best way to learn.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Yeah, but you know the problem is is like if
you study language in school, I don't care if it's
Spanish or French. I don't care what it is you
study is a language in school? You you know, for example,
uhes the Susannah Incasa Susanna with amigo. You know, whatever
(16:12):
it is, I can't even you just it's one way
of speaking. Then you talk to somebody that actually speaks
the native language and it's like it's no, no, no,
you can't.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
English is incredible hard. What language it is?
Speaker 6 (16:28):
Mandarin is incredibly hard, Russian is incredibly hard.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
I have no interest. I want everyone to speak English.
This way makes it easy for me.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
English is definitely the universal language, but Spanish is definitely
becoming a close second.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Oh I know.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
I mean, I'm actually grateful that I can speak a
little Spanish.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
I am because I think.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
I have no interest in learning French. I could care
less about the Front I would, you know, I don't know.
I didn't love. I didn't love Paris.
Speaker 6 (16:59):
No one loves because Paris is dead, it's been taken
over by radical islamis.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Well great Britain, London's not much better.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
That's the Pakistani grooming gangs, which they actually have a
rape inquiry going on right now.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
They're a real wonders here.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Yeah, the Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe, has been doing
it for two weeks and they were supposed to allow
him to have full transparency, but of course Parliament decided
to not do that and he's doing it behind you.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
So some people think that you're being like, you know,
harsh in your commentary. Here's the problem is that you're
not wrong. No, they have had they have had unvetted
immigration without assimilation. And you know, if somebody wants to
come to America, I'm all for it. I don't care
where you come from. I don't care where. We want
(17:43):
a background check, a health check, and you can't be
a financial burden on the American people. Do it legally.
Welcome to America, Welcome to our family. I have no
problem and it should be the same in Europe. Europe
has just let this get so wildly out of control.
I never thought that Great Britain would would have and
allow people who move to their country immigrate to their
(18:07):
country and you know, not want to assimilate to their
value system. And that's why hence we now have eighty
five Sharia courts in Great Britains.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
You're getting me worked up. It's your fault.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
Wait, speaking of idiots, didn't you want to play a
certain cut about a certain idiot?
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Oh, mister Fang Fang, Yeah, Oh you want me to
play this? I take requests wonderful. This is what he said.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
I'm not gonna give a penny to more public executions.
These guys don't want to be accountable and so I'm
not going to fund it. Otherwise, that just means another
you know, dead nurse named Freddie and a mom named.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Jacket Carson and Toro's build up not funding.
Speaker 6 (18:44):
Corder Patrol and ICE are funding all.
Speaker 4 (18:45):
Of your pieces of game.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
I'm fine with that. It's Ice and Border Patrol who
are doing the public executions. And the bodies are piling
up and people have said enough. We were told most
violent people are going to be gone. Instead, people are
running through the factories and fields where they work.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
It's a six year.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
Old battling stage four cancer and supported. That's not what
they gonna sign up for.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
What they signed up for is the seventy percent of
people that are known terrorists, murderers, rapists, child molesters, cartel members,
gang members and everything that we tell you about. But
this guy, I think there's something really off with him.
Speaker 6 (19:18):
Well that's say, well just for some fun on GovTrack
dot us for those of you who don't know, that's
where you get to see what all your legislators are
doing or not doing. And in Swalwell's case, between September
nineteenth of twenty five till February ninth, he has missed
one hundred and two of one hundred and thirty nine
roll call votes, seventy three percent of the votes he
(19:39):
should be passing for his constituent. So it seems that
he's not accountable either.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Okay, well, then he's probably the perfect contender to replace
Gavin because what is Gavin Newsen doing. He's a world traveler,
he's a full time Trump stalker, he's a full time
tweety bird, he's a full time.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Author.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Now on top of it, I mean, this guy does
nothing for the state of California. People can't even you know,
a year plus later, you can't even get a building
permit for crying out loud.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
It's it's bizarre and podcaster on top of that, so
when does he ever in the state?
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I don't know. If we call him a podcaster.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You know, well, somebody sent me this today and I
need to get it checked out.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Actually, you know, I think it was Sense that sent
it to me. Was it Sense?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
I don't remember who, but you know it had to
do with with Gavin Newsom and his and all of
his failures. His failures are just spectacular, and there's like
no end to you know, everything that that he's done
to mess up his country. It's unbelievable of his state. Rather,
it's just it's it's you. You can't mess it up
(20:51):
as bad, but he messed it up that bad. You know,
number one in terms of state income tax, number one,
sales tax, number one, gas tax, you know, number one,
er tacks, number one in homelessness, number one in quality,
number one in terms of the worst quality of life.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
And the list goes on and on and on. These
are bad guys.
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Man. A lot of hair jel, no substance.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Yeah, a lot of hair Joe. He doesn't like me anymore,
Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
He never liked you. Please, he was using you because
he loved to be on stage.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Well, he used me.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I wonder if I should share that last text he
sent me. I don't know, Wait for him.
Speaker 6 (21:24):
Wait for him to poke you, because he will, and
then you can release it. And so everybody, what a
nice guy he is.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Oh yeah, I was not that, wrote back. That's not
very nice. I let people's imaginations run wild. Gary Iowa
on the Sean Hannity Show, Hi, Hello, Sean.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
What's going on?
Speaker 7 (21:42):
I wanted to give some credit to President Donald Trump
or offering all the tools at the disposal of the
Guthrie family to be used. And I was wondering along
with that they considered or heavy heard of any information
(22:03):
regarding the use of satellite technology and imaging. You know,
some of the simple things that we take for granted
is like a global dot net that you can resume
down on your home and you know, checked out whatever.
You know, the average person can do that with your phone.
So it makes me wonder.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
I think they're using everything at their disposal, That's what
I think. I think they're using everything that they can
put their hands on. I don't think any stone is
unturned here, and I think all the resources now in
the beginning, I can tell you as a fact that
it was they didn't love that the FBI was getting involved,
(22:45):
and that really kind of pisses me off because they
should have welcomed them with open arms. Because as good
as local law enforcement is, and I am the biggest
champion of law enforcement that I know of on radio
or TV, I mean, I love law enforcement. I'm grateful
to them. They're keeping a safe, They're keeping them secure.
They you know, they put their lives on the line
for us. They've done an incredible job. I think I'm
the only one that has scrolled all the great things
(23:07):
they've been able to accomplish and all the great things
that they've been able to do, and it just gets
frustrating to me that they never get credit for it.
But local law enforcement put up barriers that made it
hard for the FBI to get in and get involved
because they had it was their jurisdiction.
Speaker 7 (23:28):
You know, it's fascinating to unders trying and understand some
of the technology that you're using, and they're allowing us
to know that much. What is it that we don't
know that the technology has a dance to is really intriguing.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Now well, I mean, what we're learning and their ability
to go back and retrieve this video the way they
did is remarkable to me. You know, reverse AI lighting
is remarkable to me, all of this, all of this
stuff is is pretty incredible. Anyway, my friend, I appreciate
you being with us. So I saw this. I don't
know if it's all true, but it has a picture
(24:05):
of Gavin, Savior of the Left. Number one in homelessness,
number one in poverty, number one in an addiction, number
one in gas prices, number one in income tax, number
one in gas tax, number one and budget deficit number one,
retail theft number one, citizen exodus number one, COVID mandates
number one, COVID closures number one, COVID business closures, number
one in any illegal immigration, number one in funding illegal immigration,
(24:28):
number one in illiteracy, number one in wage stagnation, number
one in privle as lawsuits, number one in worker restrictions,
number one in anti business regulations. Oh, I mean, if
that's all true, that's a pretty comprehensive list. What don't
you say, Linda, I.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
Did hear that you Hall send him some flowers though
for all the extra business. So one company does like him,
it's you haul.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (24:52):
I mean, if they can't get their trucks back to
the state of California because nobody wants to return them.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
Well, that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
I mean, if it costs you three grand to rent
a U haul to move to Texas, you could probably
get that same U haul if you're moving to California
for like three or four hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
We've already checked it out.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
You're doing U haul a favor and if you negotiate,
you could probably get the price down. Back to our phones,
Terry and Louisiana. Terry, how are you hey.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
I'm great, Thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
A few Thank you.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
I'm glad you called.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
I love our couple in the White House. They're the best.
Number two. My husband and I do donate to tunnel
to Towers every month.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Thank you. What I'm at good people about.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
And you just kind of struck a nerve with me
when you said that the family originally was not interested
in welcoming the FBI.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Not the family local law enforcement.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Oh okay, thanks for correcting me. I do believe that
this is an inside job with the possibility of outside help.
I do believe it's someone within that. But something has
also struck me a little strange. And maybe it's just
I'm a skeptic, but also I believe in putting things
(26:11):
out there. No one at any time since this has started,
has seen the son in law until you google him?
Do you even know what he looks like?
Speaker 2 (26:23):
His picture is all over the internet.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
You can find that in a million places, and yes,
you can google him, right.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
And that's what I mean. Unless you go through the internet,
do you ever see what this gentleman looks like?
Speaker 1 (26:39):
I pray if he is a suspect, think tell me
if you agree with this. If he is maybe law enforcement,
you know, if he is, I would imagine that he
probably had accomplices. I'm guessing, just my thought. Don't you
think law enforcement would keep a lot of that close
to the vest until they had enough evidence?
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Absolutely? But when you're asking for the public health and
no one sees this face unless they go onto the
internet to see what he looks like, a lot of
people may, in fact, if a hope to God, he's
not involved in this. But who's to say if shows
(27:23):
like yours, shows like others, if what he looks like
wasn't included, someone wouldn't recognize it. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I just try to be careful because you then are
putting suspicion in people's minds, and maybe they're innocent like
I saw, you know, John Benet Ramsey being interviewed on
foxho Fronts, and they spend so much time local law
enforcement looking at him. And his advice is, if you
ever missing a loved one, bring in the FBI immediately,
(27:56):
whether they like it or not. He said he didn't
care that they were looking at him. He's said he'd
do anything they wanted, but he wanted to find, you know,
he wanted to find the person responsible for taking, you know,
for killing his daughter. Tough questions, though, Terry, I understand
that we got to be careful. I don't want to
I don't want to rush to judgment if I don't
have facts, I don't want to go with you know,
gut feeling or you know, people's theories.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
There's a lot of theories out there, all right.
