Speaker 1 (00:00):
Military in the world, rebuilt it largely in my first term.
Some of it was stupidly given away to Afghanistan for
what reason.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Nobody can figure that one.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
But it was still a relatively small amount of what
you know, if you compare the concept of what they did, however,
is just incredible. But the country is doing well. We're
respected all over the world like.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Never before.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
Probably we went to NATO, as you know, and they
went from two percent to five percent of GDP and
nobody expected that. And the difference is they didn't pay
the two and they paid the five. So and as
you know, we are selling a tremendous amount of equipment
to NATO.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
We're not spending any money.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
We're making money, but I don't want to talk about
making I want to talk about we're no longer involved
with funding Ukraine, but we are involved with trying to
stop the war, the killing in Ukraine. So we're selling
missiles and military equipment millions and millions and ultimately billions
of dollars to the NATO people, where I'm very friendly

(01:10):
and we have great relationship. But there was an amazing trip.
So they're funding the entire war. We're not funding anything.
I think it's an important point to make as a
lot of people don't understand that, and we will continue
to do that and we're trying to get as much
as we can for them.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
They want the American product.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
The American military product is by far the best in
the world, and that's what they want to get. They
have lots of options, but that's what they want to get.
So where the factories are doubling up and tripling up
where they make the patriots and other really you could
say defense and offensive weapons. The wages for blue collar

(01:50):
workers are now rising at the fastest rate in sixty years,
which is so important to all of us around this table.
The average American workers already seen a five hundred dollars
wage increase this year, and there's no inflation because there's
been decreases, tremendous decreases.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
With thanks to Doug and Chris.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
And some of the people, the great job they've done
with energy, Thank you very much, and Chris, thank you
very much.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
I see you down close to sixty.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Dollars a barrel, and you'll be breaking that pretty soon.
And that has a huge impact. So we have groceries
are down, Energy is way down. Energy is way down.
It was four and five dollars for a gallon of gas.
Think of that gasoline, and now it's probably two twenty five.

(02:38):
There are some places it's two dollars. It's even it
broke two dollars at a couple of locations in the South.
In places like California where they judge such high taxes,
it's higher, but it's still much lower than what it
was a year ago. So energy is way down, groceries
are way down, Eggs are way down. Thank you very much, madam.

(03:00):
You've done a great job. Appreciate it. When we came in,
the eggs were through the roof. They were four times
higher than they've ever been. And my first question from
you people, well, what are you going to do with eggs?
They said, what's the problem with eggs? That was caused
by Biden or whoever was operating the autopen actually costs
that I get because I don't think.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
He knew too much about eggs.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Factories of booming compared to before I took office. Domestic
auto production is going to be. It's going to be
so thrilling in two years when you see the numbers,
because they're building plants all over the country. They're all
coming in because the tariffs. They don't want to build.
They don't want to pay the tariffs. And if they
build their plant here, they don't pay the tariffs. And

(03:44):
they're pouring into our country. And you know about AI
and you know about other but the auto plants, you know,
that's the good old fashioned stuff that I love. The
auto plants are pouring into the United States of America.
They're coming from Mexico, they're coming from Canada, and they're
coming from Europe, all over Europe.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
And it's been pretty amazing.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
So factories are booming and when they actually open, you know,
right now, they're booming.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
In terms of construction.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
This is something given to me by Mark Zuckerberg, and
you'll see this is AI. Now, these are I never understood.
I say, well, you know, because I built shopping centers,
and for fifty million dollars you can build a very
nice shopping center. So I never understood when they said
fifty billion for a plant.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
I said that a kind of a plant is said.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
But when you look at this, you understand why it's
fifty bids. So this is when he's building in Louisiana.
That's meta Facebook as people understand it to be. But
look at that. That's the size of Manhattan. So that's
superimposed over the island of Manhattan. It takes up a

(04:52):
big part of Manhattan. I think they say eighty one
percent of Manhattan. So these are big things and they're
going up. A lot of them are going up now.
I don't know that big. Actually, Mark is building four
of them, and others are building similar places. And when
these things open up, I'll tell you about our country.
We're leading China now in Ai, substantially leading China. And

(05:17):
the reason is because we're letting them build their own
electrical facilities. We would need double the energy that if
you take all of the electricity that we produce right
now in this country, you'd have to multiply at times
two or maybe three three times, so three times more
than we have right now for everything to operate your
toaster and everything else.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Okay, three times more.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
And the way we are able to succeed because China
goes out and builds these massive plants, so right now
building fifty eight coal in this case almost all coal
fire plants, and coal is back with this country too.
By the way, you know, there's a reason they use
it because it's good.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
It works for them, and we call it clean call.
We don't call it call.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
We call it clean, even very clean call. But we
have called going up. We have nuclear going up. Nuclear
is very much in vogue now. It's safe and inexpensive
and gray. We don't allow windmills. We're not allowing any
windmills to go up. I mean unless there's a legal
situation where somebody committed to it a long time ago.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
We don't allow windmills.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
And we don't want the solar panels was speaking with
the secretary about because they take up, you know, thousands
of acres of our farm land. You see these big,
ugly patches of black plastic that comes from China, and
the solar is. You know, I like solar in some ways,
but for firing up your big plants, it doesn't work.

(06:45):
It's very unstable, but it really takes up your farm.
The farmers are saying, you know, they're building these massive
blotches in the middle of the fields all over the country.
It's so crazy. It's so crazy.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
So we're not.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Heavy into that at all. And windmills, we're just not
going to allow them. They ruin our they're ruining our country.
They're ruining everyone. If you look at UH. I hate
to mention countries, but you look at the UK. What's
happened at UK? They have energy costs have gone through
the roofs because of when they want to do everything
close up the north, the northern parts of the country.

(07:21):
They have oil, it's tremendous and they close it up
and they've been building windmills all over the place. And
I tell them, you're my friends, but man, you're gonna
have a bad awakening very soon.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
You're gonna it's gonna be very bad.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
They're ugly, they don't work, they kill your birds, they're
bad for the environment, and if you look at them
from a house, your house is worth less than fifty percent.
So I'm trying to have people learn about wind real fast.
And I think I've done a good job, and not
good enough because some countries are still trying and they're
they're destroying themselves. Those are countries that are really destroying themselves.

(07:55):
I hope they get back to fossil fuel because right now, Chris,
whether we like it or not, fossil fuel is the
thing that works. And then you can add nuclear with
it and other things. But fossil fuel is what works
if we're going to fire up those big monster factories.
But if you look at comparing everything before I took off,

(08:16):
as domestic auto production is up eighteen thousand cars a
month and we haven't even started yet because a lot
of these plants aren't built. It's up eighteen thousand because
four General Motors and a couple of others stillantis. They're
taking their existing plants and they're as quickly as they can,
they're adding on to them. So when their plants open,

(08:39):
because they're building big, modern, beautiful auto plants. But think
of that, we're up eighteen thousand cars a month, and
essentially all they've done is try and utilize their space correctly.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
As their big plants open.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Up, it's going to be I hope they remember that
it was this way. I hope this table gets a
lot of the credit for what's happening. It gets all
of the credit because this would have never happened. We
were going out of business in every way, we were losing.
All the car plants were leaving this country. Now they're
all coming back in and they are coming from Canada
and they are coming from Mexico. But they're coming from Germany,

(09:15):
They're coming from all over the world. Domestic steel production
is up by one hundred thousand tons of steels steal
a week. We are we have a fifty percent tarifford steel, aluminum,
and various other things. Copper just got brought into the picture,
and that means people are gonna want to make steel here.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
We just made a deal with US Steel.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
As you know, we have an outside company come in,
spend seventeen billion dollars on building new plants, do everything.
It's great and it stays right.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Here in America.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
So we're doing amazingly well on steel. And domestic oil
production is up by more than three hundred that in
barrels a day, just a lot of barrels. And you're
gonna be talking about that in a second. I think
Chris and Doug, these two people have done a fantastic
job and we have we have the oil price down
to about sixty.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Two dollars a barrel.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
So just so you understand, because a lot of you
like to talk about costs and prices, but I watched
so much fake information.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
Product costs her down. Energy is way down.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Energy brings things down, you know, with energy that's what
happened with Biden. He stopped our program, and then he
went back to it when he realized that it looked
like you're going to be paying numbers that nobody's ever seen,
like seven dollars a gather, you're gonna play seven dollars
a gallon. They were up to seven seven and a
half dollars. So then he immediately went back to the
Trump plan that they terminated. But it was too late

(10:51):
for them. It was too late. They blew it. They
had a great thing going. I gave them something great,
and they blew it. Since your inauguration, we've created over
half a million new private jobs. And if you notice
when the numbers come out, government jobs are going down
and private jobs are coming up. And that's what really
fuels the country. It's easy to hire people and pay

(11:13):
them for doing something that maybe is not very productive.
But government jobs are down, actually substantially down, and private
jobs are way up. And these are the jobs that
make money, create a better life. Meanwhile, we've reduced the
number of federal bureaucrats by eighty four thousand, so you

(11:34):
are rid of eighty four thousand, and I think the
job numbers you're going to see the new job numbers
are going to be through the roof because of all
of the different businesses that are moving into our country,
and not just production businesses autos and AI, but any
business you can think of in the world of furniture.
As an example, North Carolina. I went there many times

(11:54):
when I built a lot of hotels and things, and
I'd go to North Carolina, I'd buy the greatest.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
They were the great most talented people.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
And then China came along and took all of those jobs,
or if they would have tariffed, China wouldn't have taken
any of the jobs. But we had presidents said, honestly,
and I like some of them, but they didn't know
what the hell they were doing from a business standpoint,
from running the country, and North Carolina the most talented
woodworkers that you've ever seen. I could, I'd be there

(12:24):
and I'd watch them, but I'd say, I'd like to
have a rail on that chair. Maybe can you fancy
it up a little bit? How about this shirt? Tji
and it hand me a thing. It was like they
were artists. They were unbelievable, and that business was stolen
from us by Oh, there's not only China, but by other's.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
All of a sudden, you're ordering your furniture from China.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
It was not even close to being as good, but
they couldn't compete with it. If we would have said,
of course, one hundred percent or two hundred percent tariff,
you wouldn't have lost one job. It's so sad, but
we're going to rebuild North Carolina furniture and other places.
South Carolina too, to a lesser extent, they make furniture,
but furniture we're gonna put a very substantial terrifon. We've

(13:09):
already announced it. It'll be done pretty quickly. And when
that happens, everyone's gonna start. I just tell you, North
Carolina go out and start getting the grandchildren and the
children start teaching them. Because some of those incredible artists
that I knew as young people, they're older people now,
but they still have the talent and they have time left.

(13:31):
But they're gonna be teaching their sons and their daughters
and their grandchildren. And it's going to be a beautiful
thing to see. It's gonna happen like magic. It's gonna
happen without question. It's not like gee, I hope it happens,
It's gonna happen. The results of Ford that just announced
it's going to create four thousand new jobs American jobs
high under fourteen thousand jobs. General Motors is moving production

(13:55):
of the Chevy Blazer and Equinox from Mexico back to
the United States where it belongs. Don't forget we lost
fifty five percent of our auto production over the last
thirty five years, fifty five percent. We were the auto
capital of the world, like there was nobody even think
about challenging us. We lost fifty five percent of it

(14:17):
to Mexico, Canada, China, a lot to China and other countries.
And it's all coming back. We will be bigger a
couple of years, will be bigger than we ever were.
We'll be more dominant, we'll be bigger. We make great
product too, We're starting to make really great product. We're
going to be bigger than we ever were. We're going
to be at the level that it was what we

(14:37):
were the only one that really we sold to the world,
and we're going to be back selling to ourselves and
other parts of the world.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
It's not going to be the same, but it's going.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
To be equally as important as it was in the
heyday thirty years ago. But we lost more than fifty
percent of the automaking capacity. In fact, the unions, the
auto unions, as you know, the top guy didn't know me,
didn't like me, and now he likes me. He says,
I can't believe what Trump has done. But the order

(15:07):
workers voted for me. They understood better than anybody else.
The auto workers, the teamsters voted for me. Teamsters are great.
They all voted for me. Nobody, no Republican has ever
gotten the support of the teamsters and the auto workers.
And now the head of the auto workers have been
so amazing. I watched them on television and they can't
even believe what happened.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
And I told them all what was going to happen.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
We secured new market access for American agricultural exports all
over the world. Our secretary is doing a great job,
thank you, Bu. And we have negotiated historic trade deals
with the United Kingdom, China, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, Japan,
South Korea, who was here yesterday, and.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
The European Union.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Foreign nations are now paying hundreds of billions of dollars
straight into our treasury and numbers nobody's ever seen before.
As you know, we made trade deals with a lot
of countries, and many of those countries, just to be
able to sit at the table, are paying US hundreds
of billions of dollars. We made a.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
Trade deal with the European Union.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
They were rough on us for a long time, and
now we have a very good deal.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
We made that with them.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
Trillions of dollars is coming into our country, trillions, far
beyond billions, trillions of dollars when you say scott and
in a short period of time they have to buy
seven hundred and fifty billion dollars worth of our energy product.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Energy is we have more than anybody else that we're
using it.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
But the European Union is a done deal, and Japan
is done. I heard there was a problem with South Korea,
but we met yesterday and they're done. We didn't do it,
We just kept the same deal. He honored the deal.
They wanted to see, well, I don't even want to
say it, but they wanted to see if they could
do something. But they honored the deal, which is nice.
And we cut the previous record setting trade deficit.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
I hear just came out we cut it in half. Already.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
We haven't even said we've only been here really for
a few months, because you know, it takes you a
little while to fix up the oval office and do
those things prepare for the to prepare for the battle. Right,
so we really only been here for a very short
period of time and we cut the trade deficit in half.
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (17:27):
That's a fantastic I didn't think. I didn't even think
we were going to do that.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
And remember, these are things that are being built, these
things that you know, all these numbers.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
Of you, they're not open yet.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
When they open, you're going to see things happen in
the United States that nobody's ever seen before, including our
country in its heyday. And I had the greatest economy
in the history of our country my first four years.
Despite COVID, which was very unfortunate situation for the whole world.
We did a great job with it. Never got the

(17:59):
credit for the job we did Operation Warp Speed. People say,
is that one of the greatest achievements ever in politics
or in the military, because it was almost a military procedure.
But everybody, including Putin, said that Operation Warp Speed, what
you did with that nobody can believe it, and we

(18:21):
did a great job, but it was still it was
a horrible, horrible poll over our country.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
We had a very dark cloud over the world.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
That was a very very bad thing that came out
of Wuhan, which I said, it came out of Wuhan,
That's where it came from.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
And China suffered greatly, but everybody did.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
But we.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Did a good job with that, as good as you
can possibly do, and we came back and now we're
stronger than ever before. If I didn't win this election,
this country was gone. I'm telling you, economically, it was gone.
None of the things that we're talking about would have happened.
The whole world was robbing us blind, friend and foe.
They were stealing our jobs, our money, our factories, they

(19:07):
were stealing everything. We would have been a shell. We
would have been a bankrupt, broken shell. And that's the
way it is. But we're doing just the opposite, stronger
than we've ever been. Last month, in a landmark achievement,
I also proudly signed the largest working class tax cuts
in American history. So the bill that I'm not going
to use the term great, big, beautiful, that was good

(19:29):
for getting it approved, but it's not good for explaining
to people what it's all about. It's a massive tax
cut for the middle class. It's a massive tax cut
for jobs. And it's I mean, think of it. No
tax on tips, no tax on social security, So seniors,
I don't know how you can vote for anybody else.

(19:51):
And you know, just think of that. And no tax
on overtime, so you work overtime, you don't have to
pay tax on overtime.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
That's good.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
The Democrats don't know what they're gonna do, so they
have like this SoundBite. You know, they have all these soundbites.
They send it out. I don't know. Some guy sends
out a word and everybody uses, including the fake news
some of you're here right now. I'm looking at you,
and it's death. To use the word death. No, it's

(20:21):
actually life. It's almost like.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
A newborn life.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
It's not that that's a sound bite. The bill is death.
We strengthen social security, we strengthen Medicare, medicaid. The job
we've done on social security is if the Democrats got in,
social security is over because the country's gonna fail. There
won't be any social security. And I made that pluch you.

(20:46):
We're gonna take care of Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and
we're doing that in spades because the country is becoming
so successful again and it hasn't been this successful. I
think in the end it will never have been this successful.
I don't think it'll leave me close. With what's happening.
Every American is seeing a tax cut as a result

(21:07):
of the bill. The average police officer will keep an
extra one thousand dollars a year at least in overtime,
and the average waiter or waitress will keep nearly two
thousand dollars extra in the fact that they would have
had to pay that kind of money on tips. And
I never realized that the government was so strong on that.
But waitresses, waiters would tell me that.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
The government would go after them.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
It was horrible.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
That's how it all started with me. It just was incredible.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
And the biggest thing was again the four trillion dollars
that they found. They said, well, that was nice. They
should have announced it. I could have told them that,
and I don't know, it should be simple, but a
lot of people didn't understand it. Actually a lot of
good people didn't understand it. But now they're saying, you know,
Trump was right. They'd never seen anything like this, and
I don't know what it is. They didn't understand what

(22:03):
we were trying to explain to them was going to happen.
Everybody's moving back to the United States because they don't
want to pay a tax if they don't, if they're
not here, they have to pay a tax. And it
didn't seem that complicated. But it's working at a level
that nobody can imagine. You know, this is working four
trillion dollars. But that's a big number. It's a number

(22:24):
that nobody ever heard of before. But four trillions exciting,
But that's nothing compared to what's happening because these places
haven't even opened yet. Some of them haven't even started
hiring yet. They're under construction, so it's construction jobs, but
it's not the big number which and the big numbers
when they open, they're going to be very successful.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
It's a revolution.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
We're also working on things to ensure that the awesome
power of artificial intelligence is used to benefit all Americans,
including American workers and also American children. Spirit A wonderful
First Lady has just announced a presidential AI challenge it's
going to be a very good challenge. I can tell

(23:09):
you put her heart into it, which will inspire the
next generation to stay on the cutting edge of this
vital technology. This is the new Internet, the new computer,
the new television, the new everything, all put together in one.
This is why when I show you a picture like that,
I mean I show you this. This is a factory

(23:30):
super imposed over the island of Manhattan, and you have
many of them being built right now all over the
country or soon to start some of them. Some of
them have started. This one has actually started. That's in
the great state of Louisiana. But the first Lady is
working very hard on this and it's an important initiative

(23:50):
and millennia, when she puts her mind to it, nobody
can do better.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
There's nobody.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
So every young person should go to AI dot gov
to learn more. AI dot gov to learn more, and
you'll see it's a great challenge. I think it's gonna
be a very modern kind of a challenge that involves AI,
which is very exciting to people. So I want to
thank her, raise a lot of money for children. We're

(24:17):
putting America first, and we're going to be putting the
America worker first. And you know, the Republican Party has
picked up four million new people, four million. The Democrats
have lost two and a half million. Other than that,
they're extremely happy. No, they're very depressed. They're very depressed.

(24:37):
And the new box that they've fallen into his crime.
There was a consultant on one of the shows, this
sporting I was watching. I thought he was very good.
He's a Democrat consultant, and he was screaming, no, no,
don't let him do this to you. Don't let It's
another trap. It's another trap. What he's talking about. Like

(24:59):
men playing in women's sports. They said, that's an eighty twenty.
Now it's a ninety seven three. It's ninety seven three.
Like transgender for everybody. They fought for it, they're still
fighting for it. I saw a guy today, a politician
that you all know very well, fighting like hell for

(25:20):
men playing in women's sports. You don't understand they're human beings. Also, well,
I agree they're human beings, but you can't have a
seven foot guy playing basketball with the women. You know,
just one of those little problems in life. And we
all have a place. That's okay. I've got my place too.
But this guy's screaming, it's another trap and this is

(25:43):
the worst of all, he said, because this is crime.
Trump is saying he's against crime and they're for crime. No,
he's going it was funny. No, it's a trap.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
Don't do it.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
And then I saw this poor stupid Chuck Shuber, the guy.
He looks like he's aged a hundred years. And they
don't like getting into looks. You know, looks don't mean
anything right when you're in politics. Looks no matter. I
look at Pam, I would never say she's beautiful, because
it's that'd be the end of my political theory secretary.

(26:23):
But I will tell you this is the best of all.
And they're gonna fight me like the slab of a
governor you have in Illinois. Poor this poor guy got
thrown out of his business by his family. Know, the
family's partners with the family and nice family. I like
the family, but he was no good.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
They threw him out.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
He's governor of Illinois and he goes about Trump. We
don't need his help. Chicago is the way these places
are really bad. Crime in DC was the worst it
ever was. You know, they make up stories. Crime in
DC was the worst ever in history. And now over

(27:04):
the last thirteen days, we've worked so hard and we've
taken so many There are many left, but we've taken
so many criminals over a thousand. I watched a man
from Maryland who said to me, and I mean, sir,
you're the greatest president. You're doing an unbelievable job. On

(27:25):
a great job.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
Governor Moore.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Has anyone heard of him? He's another hopeful for president.
I don't think so. But I met him, and I
didn't realize it was on camera. See they caught him
on camera. I was at a game, I don't know,
like the Army Navy game or something, and I met
him in a whole way and as usual, you do
your job very well. One of these great cameramen had
it on tape. But I met this gentleman, I never

(27:48):
met him before. Sir, you're doing a great job. You're
doing an unbelievable job. Thank you very much. But then
he goes on television he says, oh, Trump is a dictator.
A lot of people here, so the line is that
I'm a dictator, but I stopped crimeing. So a lot
of people say, you know, if that's the case, I'd
rather have a dictator. But I'm not a dictator. I

(28:10):
just not to stop crime. And you would think that
Illinois would they have such a problem with crime, such
a bad governor. He should be calling me and he
should be saying, could you send over the troops with
it's out of control? It's out of control in New
York it's.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Out of control.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Not as bad as Illinois, by the way, not even clothes.
In California, you would have not had the Olympics, had
I not sent in the troops, sent in the National Guard.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
They did a fantastic job.

Speaker 4 (28:44):
We have the.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Olympics, we have the World Cup coming. I got them
in my first term, and I was really sad because
I said, oh boy, I got them and I won't
be president. And little things happen. Thank you guys, you
little things happen. I think of it. You could ask Johnny.
Johnny would tell you he's the head of World Cup.

(29:05):
He's a great guy, to great commissioner, but he's the
head of the World Cup. He said, Trump is the
only reason we're doing this. And the sad part is
that I was not gonna have it. I would have
to be probably I wouldn't have even been invited to
the game depending on who's president.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
And I got that. I did not get two hundred
and fifty.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
Okay, the two hundred and fifty anniversary I did not get.
I'd like to climate if my mind, but I did
get that. That was whether I was president or not,
it was still two hundred. I'd like to take credit
for it. What I will take credit for is we're
going to have a better celebration under Trump than you
would have had under some step that'll take care of.
We're going to have a safer place, Christy because of

(29:46):
you and Tom Holman and everybody. Right. So, we have
two fifty coming up, we have the World Cup coming up,
which is like having forty five Super Bowls, and we
have the Olympics coming up. So we're going to have
a very three and a half years remaining. We're going
to have it very exciting. It's going to be done.
It's going to be done properly. So I just want

(30:07):
to tell you our countries in incredible shape. Our military
is strong and powerful and respected. We had some fantastic
decisions from the Supreme Court that let us put the
people into the military and other businesses that are best
for the job as opposed to some woke reason that

(30:30):
was killing our country. It was a very strong, very
powerful you can now go into a company based on
your ability, as opposed to being forced in based on
some factor that cannot make our country great. It was
a big decision, very very big decision. And we've had
a lot of great decisions and we've all made some

(30:52):
great decisions. Sitting around this table, I want to thank Scott.
Unbelievable what's happening financially with you and Howard and vice
residents involved in everything, and he's been great, and Marco
has been really I think you're born for this job.
I don't think you should ever run for another office.
I don't think you should. Really, you're so good at this.

(31:13):
He is so good, and everybody likes him. You know,
everybody likes him. But everybody, much more importantly than like
I think you would say, is respect. They respect Marco,
they respect all the people around the table. So what
I'd like to do is I'd like to go around
the table. You seem to like it, your audience seems
to like it based on ratings, and I want to

(31:34):
mention you know about crime because we have a young
lady here Iris of Epoch Times.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
You're Iris arrg.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
You have and I heard you were very savagely mugged
in the city and you're not gonna let that happen
under this administration. That was last year, and would you
like to.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Mention what happened?

Speaker 3 (31:57):
Of course.

Speaker 5 (31:59):
You want to be right having me here to share
my story to the room and to.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
The broad public.

Speaker 5 (32:04):
H myn name is Aurastown the White House burstponing for
a TV the sister media at the elp Hop Times.

Speaker 6 (32:10):
So I went in two years ago. Was a Saturday
morning and broad daylight, and that was all my way
to work, and.

Speaker 5 (32:17):
A young man with a black ski mask pointed a
gun in my face and threatened me to hand.

Speaker 6 (32:23):
Over my phone, my wallet, my laptop and everything else.

Speaker 7 (32:28):
And when I refused, he used the butt of his
handgun to.

Speaker 8 (32:32):
Strike me across their face and the cheek where what
some people called a pistol with me before running away.

Speaker 6 (32:39):
And that has deeply.

Speaker 5 (32:40):
Traumatized myself and my family ever since. I've never dared
to walk in the street of DC at night ever,
and my family was extremely worried.

Speaker 8 (32:50):
So, Mr President, thank you so much for what.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
You're doing with Thank God, I'm being honest.

Speaker 8 (32:54):
Such incidents involved not just me, but also my family.

Speaker 6 (32:58):
If he had shot.

Speaker 5 (32:59):
Me, I could have died right there in the middle
of nowhere without my families or my friends knowing at
the age of back then, I think twenty twenty three, right,
just starting my career here in DC, without even starting
a family.

Speaker 9 (33:12):
And now you'rey blessed to have this altermunity.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
So you had a gun pointed in your head, and
you probably figured that he's gonna pull the trigger, cause
these are animals that don't know what the hell they
don't They couldn't care less. The pulling the trigger to
him is a very minor event, and I'm sure he's
done it before. So how did you and and you
and you did refuse to give it, which would probably
maybe somebody would say that was not the right decision,

(33:35):
right right, But you refused But I understand that so
so uh And then he hit you real hard. Yes,
I it's really amazing that you weren't shot.

Speaker 5 (33:44):
That was I I'm very blessed, and that's why having
this opportunity to stand here to share my story today,
one of very grateful for God for allowing me to
still survive to this day, but also to miss the president.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
Thank you for now making DC say thank you very
much for.

Speaker 5 (33:59):
Us, for our fa families, for my prs like on
my bealth back terns and now my my baby on
the way.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
Maybe so much I did other reporters and journalists and
good people and you don't have to say it, but
uh that have also been attacked violently and not violently
too pretty pretty badly.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
But uh, and.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
I'll bet you see a big difference in the streets
right now. And this is only twelve days. But uh,
people are telling me they're going out to dinner now
they they haven't. Uh. I told to serve my friend.
But I have a lot of friends that are going
out to dinner all the time now in DC, and
they weren't. They weren't doing it twelve days ago. They
would never even think. One of my friends went out
five times. It was four times the last time I

(34:46):
told now, it's five times. He said, I love going
out to dinner. And restaurants are starting to open again,
a lot of them close cause you know, they weren't.
Nobody wanted to go into a restaurant, Nobody wanted to
get to a restaurant or even sit in the restaurant.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
But you see a big difference, now, don't you.

Speaker 10 (35:01):
I do.

Speaker 11 (35:02):
I do education every day on their way home, and
they do feel last for seeing the trucks right outside,
seeing the National Guard troops uh members right outside, does
maybe feel like I'm hopeful about these jig and then
one day hopefully we can.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
Raise our family here.

Speaker 2 (35:17):
Thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
That's nice. And those are tough troops too. Those are
not uh politically correct troops. We don't have politically correct anymore.
We have tough guys, tough people, including some tough women.
But uh, we have tough people. And when you look
at them, I'll tell you. They showed uh one scene
where a bunch of trend de Ragua guys or whatever

(35:39):
maybe MS thirteen maybe maybe MSDNC, okay, cause to be
there worse. I think they're worse. Uh MSNBC maybe is
worse than trend A Iragua. We'll scome, we'llcome, we'll dishonest people.
But anyway, but they, uh, they went into this gang
I think it was Trendy Venezuela and.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
They weren't nice to this group of people.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
The gang was calling them sir, yes, sir, yes, sir,
get out of here, Get the hell out of here.
You know good, get out of here. And yes, sir, yes,
sir yes. These are people that beat up people all
day long. And they're calling these these soldiers. That's what
they are. They're real soldiers. There's no games. I said,

(36:27):
you don't have to be politically correct.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
And you know the way they.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
Used to spit in the face of the soldiers, where
the soldiers staying like this, and you'd have some guy
or some woman sometimes screaming at them from one at
your way. They're standing there and they're told you cannot
do anything, and they start spitting, actually spitting in their face,
and I said, you spit we head and they're totally authorized,

(36:53):
said to all of those things. But your story is great,
and there are other stories here, but they don't have
to tell them. But some people are ashamed tell they
don't want to tell them. But it's it's like a
jungle and the start of jungle anymore. And it's going
to get so good that this will be the safest
capital there is. It'll be one of the safest places

(37:14):
in our nation anywhere. And right now it's one of
the most unsafe places, but not now. Twelve days ago
it was the most unsafe place in our nation. And
they have to stop issuing false crime numbers because I mean,
I heard the mayor, and I like the mayorage. You know, fine,
I don't care if I like her or not. If

(37:35):
she did her job. I wish you were a horrible
person who did her job, but she's probably nice. I
guess I don't care. I want her to do a job.
But the issue false numbers. She said crime is down,
you know, before we are now they can say crime
is down, crime is very much down. But what they
what they did is the issue number is it's the

(37:57):
best in thirty years. Not the best, it's the worst.
It's the worst. It's much worse. And they gave phoning numbers,
and then they fired the man who didn't want to
write the phony numbers.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
He got fired.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
And I guess that whole situation's under investigation because it's
a very important thing. Pam. I mean, if they're going
to give these phony numbers, it's a false it's a
false feeling that you get crime, you have to do
something about it, and you can't go around saying, oh Washington, DC, say,
if it's not, it's going to be very safe, very soon.
It's very safe. Right now, you're going to go out

(38:30):
have dinner. People are going out all over the place.
They're walking people that I have, people that work in government, strong,
tough cookies. They can take care of themselves. But it
doesn't help to doesn't help to have big, strong muscles.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
And I work out. I just if a guy's.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Over there with a gun shooting you in your face,
you can be.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
The strongest guy in the world.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
Guy has a gun shoots you in the face, doesn't
matter how much you've worked out, how many weights you've lifted,
how much, how hard you work. And so we have
the toughest guys, and we have the best guys. And
I'm willing to go to Chicago, which has a big trouble,
but we have a governor that refuses to admit he
has problems, the huge problems Baltimore. Wes Moore was telling

(39:16):
me he wants I want to walk with the president. Well,
I said, I want to walk with you too someday,
but first you got to clean up your crime, because
I'm not walking. I'm not walking in Baltimore right now.
Baltimore is a hell hall. And this guy, I don't
even think he knows that he's another candidate for president.
Between him and News Company had some real beauties, I'll
tell you. But if we didn't go into Los Angeles,

(39:38):
you wouldn't have the Olympics. In my opinion, you wouldn't
have the Olympics. We went in and the sheriff, the
boss said, thank god they're here. You could see his tape.
He said, we were not able to control what was happening.
That was the sheriff, and he said it loud and clear.
And you know they're suing us for going in and

(40:00):
cleaning up crime. And yet their own sheriff said on
the first or second night, he said, we could have
never had that was going to be.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
You were not going to have the Olympics.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Because or the World Cup, because that would be there
wouldn't be anything left. They shouldn't have lost twenty five
thousand houses. The water was turned off from the Pacific Northwest,
and I was after them my first administration, turn on
the water. Turn it on. Nobody could have believed this

(40:30):
could have happened. But they had no water in the
fire hydrants. They had no water in the sprinkler systems
that people put up.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
In their ceilings.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
There was no water, and yet we have tremendous amounts
of water. They send it all into the Pacific Ocean,
trying to protect a certain little fish. It's not doing
well because it doesn't do well without water either, and
shouldn't be a protected because it shouldn't be a protected species.
But I think that's actually just an excuse. I actually
think these people are sick. There's something wrong. So we

(41:00):
send hundreds of millions of gallons of water a day
into the Pacific Ocean. They turn a valve and the
valve heads out, and we turned the valve back. I
actually had to do it using force. We turned the
valve back, and now they have water, but not as
much as they should have because they should and I'm

(41:22):
telling Gavin News come by this conversation right now.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Turn the rest of the water on. Turn it on.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
So things are done that are so sad in this country,
lack of common sense. I like to say the Republican
Party is the party with common sense. We're smart, we're
sharp that they're smart, but they're radical left people and
they can't help. But they're very smart, but they're radical
left and they're destroying our country, but they're.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
Not going to destroy it anymore.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
So we picked up millions of people in the Republican Party.
They lost millions of people, and I think we're going
to do very well in the mid terms. And I
just want to say one other thing in that's medicine.
The cost of medicine all over the world is much
cheaper than the United States because for years the world
pushed us around in polinic our friends, and you go
to Germany, you go to England, you go to different places,

(42:17):
and you go to a store and it's sometimes ten
percent of what we pay in the United States, because
they said, nope, we're not paying anymore. You charge in the
United States. This went on for twenty five thirty years.
And I invoked favorite nations. I said, I want to
pay the same as their pay. And Bobby Kennedy is

(42:38):
doing a good job, and doctor Oz is doing a
good job. And I asked them, I mean, other than
the basics that they're doing on autism and other thing,
we got to solve that problem because it's crazy what's happening.
It's out of here. But this is the most important
thing that can be done. Is favorite nations, Bobby. And
we're not talking about a twenty five percent cut. We're

(43:00):
talking about a fifteen hundred percent cut. Because people go
to Europe to buy drugs and they come back with
drugs prescription drugs, normal not and I mean the bad,
bad drugs. I mean prescription drug because you can buy
them for ten percent, fifteen percent, twenty percent of what.
So they're going to go up in price. And I

(43:21):
told the countries, and I get along good with all
of them, and you could ask any anyway, I get
along good with all of them. But I said, you know,
I told them, I said, you're going to go up
a little bit because it's the world. It's the world,
so more people in the world than we have, we're
going to go down a lot, and they're going to
go up a little And it's called equalization. We're gonna

(43:42):
have equalization, so we pay the same price as the
lowest drug sold anywhere in the world. And I think, Bobby,
that's gonna happen pretty soon. The companies are ready for it.
They had to go for years. I was with a
very great gentleman from Eli Lilly. I think he's an
incredible executive. I mean, no, I'll mention the company, and

(44:03):
I'll mention him because we had this argument my first term,
and then we had it in my second term, and
my second term. I wouldn't stop until I won the point.
And he threw up his hands. He says, you're right.
I can no longer defend it. I can no longer
defend that a pill that's made by Johnson and Johnson

(44:23):
in a factory, in the same factory in the United
States versus a place in Europe or other places, including Canada.
By the way, you could buy it for ten percent
or fifteen percent or twenty percent the cost of what
we're paying, Well, we'd pay five, six, seven times more money.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
He said.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
It's the hardest part of my job defending that. I'm
not going to do it anymore. I'm saying that we
have to get down to business. And that's a great company.
He's done a great job, and I appreciated it. And
it really broke the ice because they were sending, well,
we have to do research and development. Well, you have
to do it for Germany and all these other countries too. Well,
they think the United States should bear it. I mean,
I heard this stuff for and I finally said it's over.

(45:06):
Now you have to have somebody that can get these
countries to do it. I told them, if you don't
do it, we're gonna charge you a twenty five percent
tariff and everything you send into our country that's much
more money than what we're talking about. Then we have
to get the drug companies to do it, and they'll
do it because we have tremendous power over the drug
companies too, So we're gonna get it done.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
I just hope we get it done fast.

Speaker 1 (45:26):
Well, because this thing should go fast, but we're going
to get the cost of medicine is going to be
one thousand percent. Think of that, not two percent. And
I just tell this last story. When I was in
my first term, in my last year, I was so
proud of myself because drug prices went down for the

(45:50):
first time in twenty eight years under my administration. You
know how much, it went down one quarter of one percent.
And I was so proud of that, and I held
a news conference. I think you'll be able to find it,
congratulating myself and my administration because for the first time
in twenty eight years, drug prices went down one quarter

(46:12):
of one percent. That didn't tell, but it still went
down and I thought it was great. And then I realized,
you know, it's a very complicated business and formula. You
get to be very smart. I said, we're really getting
ripped off by the whole world. The whole world is
ripping us off. And what happened is I got on
this kick and I got the drug companies to agree,

(46:36):
and I got countries to agree, countries to agree. And
they're not agreeing because they think I'm a nice person.
They're agreeing because I will put charges in course and
tariffs onto them that will be many times more than
what they're going to be bad. So the companies are

(46:58):
there and the countries are there, and we gotta get
it done, Bobby, we gotta get it done.

Speaker 2 (47:03):
And we're gonna have.

Speaker 1 (47:04):
The biggest uh price event.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
Now.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
That's gonna lower social Security, medicare, medicare. This is gonna look.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
Lower everything because drugs go for everything.

Speaker 1 (47:13):
It's gonna have the biggest impact I think of anything
that can possibly be done. But you're gonna your course
are gonna be going down for medicine, for prescription drugs
will be going down at levels that nobody ever thought possible.
And that's gonna happen in a matter of a very
short period of time. And we're all set with the countries,
and we're all set with the UH with the companies,

(47:36):
so you need the too, and the middleman gets cut out.
Under this scenario, the middleman doesn't exist anymore. That was
the other thing. They always blamed the middleman. They said, oh,
the middlemen. Nobody knew who the middleman was. You know,
they had the most complex formula. It was genius, but
they didn't get away with it. So, uh, I'm counting
on Bobby. Do you want to start, Bobby, maybe we'll

(47:57):
start with you. You can start with that and then go
on to what we're talking about.

Speaker 12 (48:02):
We are deep.

Speaker 13 (48:03):
Into NFN negotiations most Favorite Nations status negotiations with fourteen companies.
Howard Ludnik is a breath of fresh air, and I
think he's gonna help us get across the finish line
with the leverage.

Speaker 2 (48:22):
That we have. From there, they're gonna they're smart.

Speaker 1 (48:27):
Don't let them get away with it.

Speaker 14 (48:28):
Now, with a combination of Bobby's MFN and the two
thirty two pharmaceuticals which we launched together, when you put
those two together, it really gives Bobby the tools to
go execute your plans. So I'm supporting Bobby as he
executes his plan.

Speaker 13 (48:44):
Good right, Yes, And we were this cabinet MEETIINGA is
supposed to be about working Americans, bringing jobs back to
this country, particularly rural America. And I want to mention
the big beautiful right now, we spend seven percent of
Medicaid dollars on rural hospitals, so they're getting the short

(49:09):
end of the stick. It's about nineteen billion dollars a year.
Under the Rural Transformation Program, we give them an extra
ten billion dollars a year. So we're raising an infusion
of cash rural hospitals and rural communities by fifty percent.

Speaker 12 (49:25):
It's going to be the biggest infusion in the history.

Speaker 13 (49:27):
And it's going to restore and revitalize sales communities. And
we can't survive as a nation if we don't honor
our rural communities. Is their source or our values, our virtues,
our character, our economy, our food. And you are bringing
that back. You are bringing those communities back. I wanted
to talk because you mentioned the wind farms. We now

(49:48):
have an departmental coalition, a team which is Doug Burgham
and Howard Ludnik and Chris Wright and Pete Hexaes are
all working on this and Lee sorry leading.

Speaker 12 (50:05):
We are all working together on this issue. We're meeting together.

Speaker 13 (50:09):
Are right now eleven wind farms planned that we're launching
in the Biden administration between Maine and Virginia.

Speaker 12 (50:16):
It's eleven hundred and thirty towers.

Speaker 13 (50:18):
These towers are twice the size of the Washington Monument.

Speaker 12 (50:23):
The blades on them are They're.

Speaker 2 (50:24):
A massive it's so crazy.

Speaker 12 (50:27):
The blades are three hundred and fifty feet long.

Speaker 13 (50:30):
One blade one of these blades blew up on Nantucket
last summer and the water was filled with shards of glass,
of sharp glass, so it's dangerous to swim and to
close the beaches. But they have identified themselves to the
local communities.

Speaker 12 (50:45):
Can't see them.

Speaker 13 (50:47):
None of these projects are bonded. If you build an
OYL Derek in the Gulf, you got to put a
bond down. There's no bond for dismantling them. And that's
one of the tools that Doug is now using to
check some of these projects. None of the cost of
energy from these projects is thirty nine cents of killed

(51:07):
white hour. The average cause in this country is seventeenth
cents per kilo white hour.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
And natural gas is three cents, right, so it.

Speaker 12 (51:16):
Is the most expensive energy.

Speaker 13 (51:17):
I've been representing commercial fishermen for forty years.

Speaker 12 (51:22):
They are so excited about what.

Speaker 13 (51:25):
You're doing, Miss President, because of their fisheries are being
wiped out.

Speaker 12 (51:28):
As soon as they begin construction.

Speaker 13 (51:30):
The ground fish fisheries just disappear, the fishery of the area.
They have killed one hundred and sixty whales in the
last two years. They're wiping out the whale population, the
Atlantic whale population.

Speaker 12 (51:43):
The big whales.

Speaker 13 (51:44):
The main key is the gray whale or the humpback whales, right, whales.
And you aren't going to save the whales on the
East coast because of this, and you're gonna save these
economies they're based upon commercial fishing.

Speaker 12 (51:56):
I'll say one other thing about fishing.

Speaker 13 (52:00):
We are now the South Asian nations are now dumping
shrimp in our country.

Speaker 12 (52:05):
Their shrimp is heavily contaminated.

Speaker 13 (52:07):
We just stopped a shipment that was contaminated with seasium
one fifty seven, which is radioactive. They are farming these
shrimps and they use bacteria, sides and antibiotics and all
kinds of chemicals, and the shrimp are so contaminated the
European nations won't take them, so they're dumping them all
here and they're putting out a business.

Speaker 12 (52:28):
We have the most sustainable.

Speaker 13 (52:29):
Highly regulated fishery in the world. What our fishermen do
is a good thing. And all the trollers in the
Gulf and Alaska are being shut down because we're getting
shrimped onto ears. So we have now increased FDA inspections
of shrimp to make sure that Americas are not eating
contam buying and eating contaminator shrimp and putting our shrimpers

(52:52):
out of business.

Speaker 12 (52:54):
I talked just very briefly. We have an historic.

Speaker 13 (52:57):
Agreement on pre authorization. Together eighty percent of the insurance industry,
which has agreed to for eighty percent of diseases and
injuries give immediate pre organizations so that when you go
to your doctor's office and he prescribes you with new
need or whatever it is, you will immediately know whether

(53:18):
your insurance company is going to pay for it. This
is an historic agreement. People have been trying to do
it for decades and we because of your leadership brought
the insurance industry together and got them.

Speaker 12 (53:28):
To voluntarily leader agreed and did this.

Speaker 13 (53:31):
Similarly, we've made another historic agreement with personal health records.
The sixty biggest tech companies in our country have all
agreed to allow Americans for the first time access to
their personal data which they own, which these companies have
been monetizing without permission. You're going to be able to

(53:52):
see my next year, all of your health records on
your cell phone. Is going to save lives. It is
going to fuel an infusion of technology into that space
where people can access those records, they can compare their
diet to what they personally need, and we'll have personalized medicine.

Speaker 12 (54:10):
We are doing price transparency.

Speaker 13 (54:13):
You pass this during your first term and then the
Biden administration refused to enforce it. We've now brought it
to HHS under your leadership and my leadership, more enforcement
actions than during the entire four years the Biden administration.

Speaker 12 (54:29):
So we're going to have that kind of price transparency.

Speaker 13 (54:31):
On working with Linda on forcing medical schools and the
MCATs that people administer, the MCATs that people who do
accreditations to put nutrition into medical school education right now
twenty five percent of the doctors in this country do
not feel competent to give the nutritional advice.

Speaker 12 (54:53):
Seventy percent of.

Speaker 13 (54:54):
Diabetes cases can be reversed or ended if you just
change people' stuff and the doctors don't know how to
advise it.

Speaker 12 (55:02):
You only know how to prescribe the drugs.

Speaker 13 (55:05):
We're going to change his hat it so if you
come out of a medical school under the Trump administration,
you are going to know about diet. And then, finally,
most importantly, the Pete and Bobby challenge. I want to
give an up to eight peak or I got five
minutes and forty eight. It's a hundred push ups, fifty

(55:25):
pull ups, and you try to do it within ten minutes.

Speaker 12 (55:29):
I got five minutes and forty eight seconds. Beat beat me.

Speaker 13 (55:32):
I'm still bitter at that five minutes twenty five. The
cabinet leader is Scott Turner.

Speaker 12 (55:39):
You got it in your arm that you.

Speaker 13 (55:46):
Got five minutes and fifteen seconds, and I'm waiting for
reporters for the rest of the cabinet.

Speaker 12 (55:51):
The only exemptions currently.

Speaker 13 (55:53):
Existing is if you can hit a fifty at administer,
which President Trump did with with Bryce.

Speaker 12 (55:59):
And so he's the only one exempt in this room.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
That's great, Bobby, Bobby autism. If I could just I
don't want to go too long because we have a
lot of people, but the autism is such a tremendous
horror show. What's happening in our country and some other countries,
but mostly our country.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
How are you doing on those.

Speaker 12 (56:20):
We are doing very well.

Speaker 13 (56:21):
We'll have announcements as promised in September. We're finding interventions,
certain interventions now that are clearly, almost certainly causing autism,
and we're going to be able to address those in September.

Speaker 2 (56:38):
It's such a big day.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
I'm looking forward to that day because there's something wrong
when you see the kind of numbers that you have
today versus twenty years ago, and those numbers, what are
those numbers?

Speaker 13 (56:50):
Well, in nineteen seventy, the biggest happening, the logical study
in history was done in Wisconsin. They looked at nine
hundred thousand children and they were looking for autism. They
knew what it looked like, and they were very very
precise about it, and they found an incident rape of

(57:12):
point seven in other words, less than one for every
ten thousand children. Today, our most recent numbers are one
in every thirty one kids. It's probably actually much worse
than that, because California, which has the best collection system,
is reporting one out of every nineteen children American children
as autism, one in every twelve point five boys. It's

(57:34):
gone from one less than one in ten thousand and
nineteen seventy one in twelve point five boys.

Speaker 2 (57:40):
Think of those numbers.

Speaker 1 (57:42):
So there has to be something artificially causing this, meaning
a drug or something. And I know you're looking very
strongly at different things, and I hope you can come.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
Out with that as soon as wess.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
So one in ten thousand and now it's one in
thirty one or thirty four or twelve if it's a boy.
Can you imagine that one in twelve that's for boy
twelve points. It's not even believable that that could be.
And that was one in ten thousand, not so long ago.

(58:15):
I've been hearing these numbers and they get worse and
worse every year. This there's gotta be something. I think
there's nothing, including favored nations and everything else, is nothing
that can be if you can find out the reason
that that's happening. And I know we're gonna we're gonna
do some things. I think it's I think, I think,
I think we maybe know the reason. And I look

(58:37):
forward to that press conference to be with you in
that press conference. That's going to be a great thing.
Thank you, Bob. You're doing a great jo. Linda, how
about it? And we want nothing less than five hundred
million dollars from Harvard. Don't negotiate, Linda, they've been very bad.
Don't negotiate.

Speaker 2 (58:55):
Go ahead.

Speaker 6 (58:56):
Oh that's working well, mister president.

Speaker 15 (58:58):
Thank you very much. We are focusing today on our
Labor Day, and I know that Kelly and Laurie are
both going to echo some of the things that I'll
say as well.

Speaker 1 (59:09):
We are really focusing, you know, on our workforce.

Speaker 15 (59:11):
But what I'm finding with great joy around the country
is that states.

Speaker 16 (59:16):
Really are being innovative and.

Speaker 15 (59:18):
Working more with middle schools and with high schools to
make sure that we are having hands on learning their
pathways to jobs that.

Speaker 6 (59:28):
Are happening now.

Speaker 15 (59:29):
And if we see more and more of our community
colleges working with our middle schools and our high schools
so that high school students are graduating not only with
the diploma, but a certificate that they have worked with,
perhaps with a Toyota or another company that is coming
in public private partnerships, and they're learning on the job

(59:49):
so that when they graduate from high school they're ready
to go into the workforce. Because we know with all
of these wonderful jobs that are coming back into the
country through AI through just our normal jobs, and we
need electricians, hvac operators, et cetera. If we don't have
this training, we're not gonna have the workforce we need
for all these wonderful jobs. So governors are really excited

(01:00:11):
about this prospect.

Speaker 17 (01:00:12):
UH.

Speaker 15 (01:00:12):
I've been now to several states and visited community colleges
and tech schools with governors and UH they're just all
on more forgetting this now. I think it's one of
the best things that we're hearing relative to UH to
the job market.

Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
So we're just kind of focusing on that for today.
So we're bringing education back to the states to put
it in a more simple fashion, We're gonna let these
states educate our children again. And you know, we're rated
UH out of forty countries, we're thirty eight, thirty nine
or forty, So obviously it's not working what they've been

(01:00:48):
doing for the last UH thirty forty years and if
you go back, the best are like UH, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, uh,
some of the other Finland. They're very highly rated. If
you go back to just take a look at anything
you want to do. You just look at us in
the past. If we gave Iowa, or gave Indiana, or

(01:01:13):
gave and I don't say every one of them. You know,
a guy like Gavin Newscomb's not going to do well.
Certain states won't do well. But even California, you cut
it up into sections. You have riverside, you have this,
you have that, you cut it into five sections, and
you know, if you had a good governor, you'd be
able to do well. But certain states will be able

(01:01:34):
to compete with Denmark, Norway, Sweden and everyone. It'll be
just as good. So I figure you have close to
forty of those days and then you have ten. You know,
five that won't be very good. You have five disasters,
and we'll have to work on those disasters. But for
the most part, we will have education that will go

(01:01:55):
zooming up in those charts, just like we have and
everything else we've done. And I think it's one of
the most important things we're doing at this table. So
bringing education back to the states where you have the
parents running it, where you have the school boards they're local.
We have people running from Washington that have never even
been to the state that they're in charge of. They've
never even been there, and I don't think they care

(01:02:16):
about it. So we want to close up the Washington buildings,
sell the buildings off, let somebody else get rich with
the real estate, because.

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
It'll be a crime free city.

Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
By the way, speaking of that, anybody murders something in
the capital, capital punishment, capital capital punishment. If somebody kills
somebody in the capitol Washington, DC, we're going to be
seeking the death penalty. And that's a very strong preventative

(01:02:53):
and everybody that's heard it agrees with it. I don't
know if we're ready for it in this country, but
where you have it, it it is. Uh, we have
no choice. So in DC and Washington, states are gonna
have to make their own decision. But if somebody kills
somebody like you could have been killed, very lucky you

(01:03:13):
didn't get killed. Uh, it's the death penalty. Okay. Uh,
fantastic job you're doing. Thank you Linda very much.

Speaker 2 (01:03:21):
Agree. How are you doing with the colleges.

Speaker 1 (01:03:22):
By the way, you're you're doing some pretty good work
in terms of getting them to treat people fairly well.

Speaker 15 (01:03:30):
Interestingly enough, since we've been negotiating with some of the
Ivy League schools, I have presidents of universities calling.

Speaker 6 (01:03:36):
Every single week.

Speaker 15 (01:03:37):
They wanna sit down and talk to us about all
of the steps that they are taking because they would
like to not come under the same investigative uh you
know program.

Speaker 1 (01:03:46):
And so it is having it is having its desired effect.

Speaker 2 (01:03:49):
That's great.

Speaker 15 (01:03:49):
So if you fire shot across the bound the big guys,
you know, kind of step in line and know you
mean business, and we have teeth in these agreements and
I'm I'm probably the work that we're doing there.

Speaker 1 (01:03:59):
Well, they behaved and some of these schools are getting
billions and billions of dollars and they misbehaved. So that's it.
And so one way or the other, we're going to
win that whole Thank you kind of straighten them out. Okay,
thank you, great job, Lee.

Speaker 16 (01:04:15):
Please, mister President.

Speaker 18 (01:04:17):
The Trump EPA has a special Labor Day message to
America's workforce, especially our auto workers, our coal miners, our
steam fitters, our pipe fitters, and the list goes on.

Speaker 16 (01:04:33):
See what a difference a year makes.

Speaker 18 (01:04:35):
A year ago, the way that the Environmental Protection Agency
was operating, the choice was made. To protect the environment,
we would have to strangulate the economy. That's the way
that the ep operated for years. There is a binary choice.
We had to choose one or the other. The Trump
EPA completely rejects that. See, we choose to protect the

(01:04:57):
environment and grow the economy. And a very special shout
out to Russ Vote and his team at the Office
of Management of Budget.

Speaker 16 (01:05:06):
We give him a lot of work, he's happy to
do it.

Speaker 18 (01:05:10):
Dozens of different deregulatory actions. We just announced a proposed
recision of the two thousand and nine Obama EPA and
dangerment finding all of the light, medium, and heavy duty
vehicle regulations that followed. It is the single largest deregulatory
action in the history of the United States government.

Speaker 16 (01:05:29):
And when you add up the.

Speaker 18 (01:05:30):
Dozens of different actions that we have announced that we're
working through in one agency in one year, we'll do
more deregulation than entire federal governments have done across all agencies,
across entire presidencies. And what we are accomplishing would not
be possible if not for the support of the rest

(01:05:51):
of this team you've assembled around this table, the well oiled,
well wired machine at the White House led by Susie Wiles,
and the decos Pede policy Shop led by Steven Miller.
They had been amazing to work with. That was just
in Iowa with Administrator Leffler, who made announcement with Secretary

(01:06:12):
Rollins to reverse the de ratement on diesel exhaust fluid systems.
Mister President, you said you wanted water flowing faster. Working
with the Secretary of Energy, We've done our part to
do that, to get gas cans flowing faster, to.

Speaker 16 (01:06:29):
Stop that annoying start stop feature in vehicles.

Speaker 18 (01:06:33):
See people out there might say, well, why are you
focused on all.

Speaker 16 (01:06:36):
Of these little things.

Speaker 18 (01:06:37):
If it's little to you, it doesn't mean that it's
not a very big deal for millions of other Americans.
The charge was clear when you called me in November
and you asked me to do this job.

Speaker 16 (01:06:48):
Clean air, land and water for all Americans.

Speaker 18 (01:06:51):
Unleash energy dominance, advance cooperative federalism, permitting reform, make America
the AI cap of the world, bring back American auto jobs.
What we are accomplishing now again wouldn't be possible if
not for your leadership. I'm grateful to the American people
for electing you and our amazing Vice President. I was

(01:07:11):
just in Mexico City announcing and signing on behalf of
the Trump administration and agreement with Mexico for a permanent
solution for the Tijuana River sewage crisis, which you have
been so outspoken and passionate about in our conversations. It
would not be possible if not for Secretary Rubio, Deputy

(01:07:33):
Secretary of Landau, US Ambassador to Mexico Johnson, the team
the State Department has been incredible. The work with any
DC on permanent to be able to get new pipelines built,
to get new factories started.

Speaker 16 (01:07:48):
And the list. It's amazing.

Speaker 18 (01:07:51):
You know, somebody out there might not realize the relationship
between the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Defense.
The amount of work with secret Terry Hexith and the
Army Corps, from responding to the La wildfires to getting
more water flowing in California, which is also something that
Secretary Bergham is involved with, to helping the farmers, the

(01:08:12):
ranchers and landowners to revise the waters of the United
States definition, so they don't have to go hire an
attorney or consult to tell them whether or not a
water on their property is subject to federal regulation. Thank
you for putting this entire team together to honor to
be at the Trump EPA where we choose to both
protect the environment and grow the economy.

Speaker 16 (01:08:32):
It's a very happy labor day for America's workforce.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
And Lee in Los Angeles if you could, because of
the fires, Lee was there and as you know, we
have very strict federal rules having to do with the
rebuilding of those houses, and Lee was able to get
the approvals done for everybody immediately.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
It was so fast nobody could believe it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:54):
And the mayor and the governor still haven't gotten them
their approvals, and they're gonna have riots out there for
that reason. These are great homeowners. They want to build
a house. They can't get approved because you have the
mayor Bass who has no idea what she's doing, and
you have a governor who is just such a bad governor,

(01:09:16):
and the people are unable to build the house. The
toughest permit to get was the federal permit by far,
and yet he got involved in a short period of
time after the fire.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
How long did it take?

Speaker 18 (01:09:26):
Well, mister President, you came in signed an executive order
and told the EPA that we had less than thirty
days to complete our hazardous material removal, which the initial
response once all of our heart rates went down a bit,
was just to figure out how to get it done.

Speaker 16 (01:09:42):
We got it done in just less than thirty days.

Speaker 18 (01:09:45):
The Army Corps of Engineers that comes in for the
debris removal, the federal government in clearing over thirteen thousand
properties that were destroyed because of these wildfires. We've got
to the point today we're the property owners all across
Los Angeles. They're grateful to the Trump administration. They're happy

(01:10:05):
that we did our part, but they are desperate to
rebuild and there is not a single green light approval
that they are waiting for from the Environmental Protection Agency.
The EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers proudly have
done our work. It's important for those local officials to
let these property owners build on their land. It's their property,

(01:10:28):
it doesn't belong to the mayor of Los Angeles, and
they need to represent the people better.

Speaker 1 (01:10:34):
They're ready to build when will they have their permits
from Los Angeles.

Speaker 18 (01:10:37):
Well, here's the problem, mister President, is that they have
been ready since the moment we were done with the
federal part. I mean when I was visiting a week
after actually I thought my first trip was going to
be to Los Angeles. However, the moment I got confirmed,
the Vice President said, you're going to East Palestine right away.

Speaker 16 (01:10:54):
So that actually ended up being the.

Speaker 18 (01:10:55):
First visit because the Vice President's so passionate about that.
From the Great State of alame then we went to
Los Angeles. From there, we're talking about the beginning of February,
where we were meeting with property owners already.

Speaker 16 (01:11:11):
They were already all set up, they had the contractors.
It was the beginning of February, and they were waiting
for green.

Speaker 18 (01:11:19):
Lights from Los Angeles to be able to go onto
their property and start rebuilding. Some of the same people
who were waiting for a green light ready with the
contractors at the beginning of February are still waiting now
in the.

Speaker 16 (01:11:30):
Middle of August. Let these Californians rebuild, and they're talking.

Speaker 1 (01:11:34):
About also taking away some of the properties and building
low income housing on those properties. They're gonna have problems
like they've never had before. These people don't know what
they're doing, so we have all our Everything the federal
government has to do was done long ago.

Speaker 2 (01:11:52):
They should have been.

Speaker 1 (01:11:53):
I went to a town hall with late but we
were there and the mayor was saying, take two years,
maybe three years to get this approved. I said, no, no,
not two years, two days. They should have it in
two days. And I toured the side and I met
a hundred homeowners all standing in front of the side
a couple of days after the fire, and they were

(01:12:15):
ready to go right there, and they wanted to just
build right then, and the city won't let them do it.
Let's say it's I don't think it's that they won't.
I think they're incompetent, Okay, to be honest with you,
I think they just don't know how to go about it.
It is so badly run by Niscombe and by Mayor Bass.
Mayor Bass she was in Africa during the fire. She

(01:12:35):
knew the fire was starting to rage, and she decided
to take a trip to Africa. These people are just
they're just bad. You know, you talk about make America
great again. They could never make America great again. But
we are doing that. Congratulations, you found some interesting things. Telsa,
She's becoming a bigger and bigger star every day. You

(01:12:58):
found out a lot of good things. Go ahead, thank you, sir.

Speaker 17 (01:13:01):
As we approach Labor Day weekend here, this is just
such a great opportunity, really to recognize your leadership as
a true champion for working people. And I know we'll
hear as we go round the table here how your
focus singularly on putting the well being and interest of
the American people first? Is that common thread that we're
seeing in your policies being implemented across your administration. For

(01:13:26):
ODI and I, Number one, our focus is and must
always be making sure that our intelligence community is focused
on our mission keeping the American people safe, secure, and free.

Speaker 6 (01:13:38):
We're doing great work on this front.

Speaker 17 (01:13:39):
I'll point out our National counter Terrorism Center, led by
Director Joe Kent, are working across different agencies with Homeland Security, DEA,
FBI and others to catch terrorists, both those who are
trying to come into our country those who may already
be in our country. They are finding the worst of
the cartel bosses and making sure that they're not able

(01:14:01):
to continue to wreak havoc and tearor in our communities. Secondly,
mister President, you have charged me with the mission of
finding the truth and telling the truth to the American people,
and we've exposed some of the worst examples of the
weaponization of intelligence in the last several weeks. I will
continue down that mission and that path wherever it leads. Transparency,

(01:14:25):
telling the truth is what will drive true accountability for
the American people who deserve nothing less. And lastly, mister President,
all of us are charged with being good stewards of
taxpayer dollars. I've gone through a reorganization for OD and
I that we've announced in the last week. We've cut
nearly half of redundant, unnecessary functions within ODE and I,

(01:14:48):
saving taxpayers over seven hundred.

Speaker 6 (01:14:50):
Million dollars a year.

Speaker 17 (01:14:51):
We will continue focusing on our core mission in keeping
the American people safe, and appreciate your leadership and your
focus on this most critical task.

Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
And you've also found many bags of information.

Speaker 2 (01:15:06):
I think they call them.

Speaker 1 (01:15:07):
Burned bags are supposed to be burned, and they didn't
get burned, having to do with how corrupt the twenty
twenty election was, and when will that all come out.

Speaker 6 (01:15:17):
Mister President, I will be the first to brief you
once we have that information collected.

Speaker 17 (01:15:22):
But you're right, it's we are finding documents literally tucked
away in the back of safes and random offices, in
these bags and in other areas, which again speaks to
the intent of those who are trying to hide the
truth from the American people and trying to cover up
the politicization that was led by people like John Brennan

(01:15:43):
and James Clapper and others that have caused really immeasurable
harm to the American people and to our country.

Speaker 2 (01:15:50):
Rachel, thank you. We look forward to hearing it. The
public looks forward.

Speaker 1 (01:15:54):
Thank you very much. Administrator.

Speaker 6 (01:15:57):
Thank you, mister President.

Speaker 7 (01:15:58):
Well, everyone knows they're no stronger advocate for hard working
American families than you. Sarah, Thank you for the largest
tax cut in American history for working families. The average
family of four is going to save about ten thousand
dollars take home pay more a year, and what we're
seeing as an increase in the child tax credit, the
increase in the standard deduction. Hardworking families are going to

(01:16:21):
benefit from this bill, and small businesses there's no bigger
beneficiary than main street because small business makes up ninety
nine percent of all businesses in this country. I've traveled
to nearly half of our states, twenty four unique states.

Speaker 6 (01:16:36):
I've made forty state visits.

Speaker 7 (01:16:38):
In fact, I was with our great Vice president and
a small business manufacturer in Georgia. Last week, I was
with a trucking company in Ohio. I was in Michigan
at a motorcycle manufacturer. The return of Made in America
is going to be driven by small businesses because ninety
eight percent of all of our manufacturers in America are

(01:16:58):
small and medium businesses, six hundred thousand factories that employed
five million people. And as Secretary of McMahon mentioned this
work based learning that is going on in professional and
trades mules is real.

Speaker 1 (01:17:11):
I visited them from.

Speaker 7 (01:17:12):
Utah to Maine to Georgia and seeing this revolution in
education happening. So small businesses need skilled labor. Now that
you saw for inflation, for the taxes, every Democrat voted
for a four trillion dollar tax increase on the backs
of hard working Americans, and so you prevented that. And

(01:17:32):
now we've got fair trade and thanks to administrative result,
and we're seeing deregulation. I mean this diesel exhaust fluid
crushed farmers. And your domestic economic agenda is amplified through
small businesses, which is why small business optimism is above

(01:17:56):
its fifty.

Speaker 6 (01:17:56):
Three year average. Finally, and so Main.

Speaker 7 (01:17:59):
Street of apreciates it. What Main Street wants now is
a rate cut. They feel burdened by high interest rates.
They would grow higher and expand more if they could,
but the interest rates.

Speaker 6 (01:18:11):
Are really hurting them.

Speaker 7 (01:18:12):
And finally, I want to say thank you for your
executive order on dbanking. We're about to announce a major
investigation on dbanking.

Speaker 6 (01:18:21):
It happened to you and your family.

Speaker 7 (01:18:23):
It happened to me, it happened to thousands and thousands
of Americans, and unfortunately disproportionately on those that had conservative values,
on Christians, on pro life, on two A businesses.

Speaker 6 (01:18:35):
And so we're gonna be talking to the banks about that.

Speaker 7 (01:18:37):
The SBA operates the largest government business loan program in
the federal government, and we have a network of five
thousand banks, so we're gonna be making sure that that
never happens to anyone.

Speaker 2 (01:18:49):
Again, great job and done a great job. Thank you
very much, Christy Well.

Speaker 9 (01:18:54):
Mister President.

Speaker 19 (01:18:55):
First of all, thank you for the opportunity to work
for you, and you committed when you ran for president
to make America safe again. And today the average family
and individual that lives in this country is safer.

Speaker 6 (01:19:07):
Than they've been in years because of what you've done.

Speaker 19 (01:19:09):
We've got three months in a row now with zero
illegal aliens coming into this country, and I want to
thank Pete and the Department of Defense for all of
their help.

Speaker 9 (01:19:17):
They're down at the border with us, still helping us keep.

Speaker 19 (01:19:20):
That border secure and make sure we know who's coming
into this country.

Speaker 9 (01:19:23):
You've arrested and brought to justice hundreds of.

Speaker 19 (01:19:27):
Thousands of illegal aliens of the criminals that have.

Speaker 9 (01:19:32):
Perpetuated violence against American people.

Speaker 19 (01:19:34):
Sir, You've had one point six million people voluntarily go
home to their home countries that we're here in this
country illegally. Because of your strong message and you enforcing
the law, they decided to go home on their own
so that they could come back the right way someday
and be American citizens. But what I think is one
of the most remarkable statistics is that under Joe Biden's administration,

(01:19:57):
eighty eight percent of new jobs went to foreign born individuals.

Speaker 9 (01:20:03):
Under your administration, two point five.

Speaker 19 (01:20:05):
Americans have jobs today that they didn't under the previous administration.

Speaker 9 (01:20:11):
And they have those jobs because you created opportunities.

Speaker 19 (01:20:13):
You made this country safe, you opened up the economy,
you enforced the law. Now people can get up and
provide for their families and go to work every day
and be confident.

Speaker 6 (01:20:24):
And the last thing I would say is.

Speaker 19 (01:20:26):
That it's incredibly important to know that every one of
those illegal aliens that has gone home, they were costing
us about eighty seven hundred to nine thousand dollars a piece,
and what they were taking out of our.

Speaker 9 (01:20:41):
Social programs, out of Social Security.

Speaker 19 (01:20:44):
You've saved this country billions of dollars, about fifteen billion
dollars just in what those illegal aliens were costing us
in social programs. I've cut over four hundred and fifty
different contracts at the Department of Homeland Security. We're getting
rid of corrupt ones, ones that were not efficient for taxpayers,
weren't focused on our mission of keeping us safe. And

(01:21:05):
we've also renegotiated and brought in our biggest vendors.

Speaker 9 (01:21:08):
It said you have to do better, and we've saved the.

Speaker 19 (01:21:10):
Taxpayers over thirteen billion dollars doing that as well. So
we're continuing to be accountable taxpayer dollars. But sir, focused
on doing the mission of what you've committed, and that's
to keep us safe and to make sure we put
Americans first.

Speaker 2 (01:21:23):
Well, great job and great job in the border.

Speaker 1 (01:21:26):
We had millions and millions of people coming in to
think three months in a row. Zero incredible, that's some job.
Thank Tom and everybody beating. Good job.

Speaker 2 (01:21:38):
Not surprised. Thank you very much, Chris, Please sorry about that,
mister President.

Speaker 3 (01:21:47):
Like Secretary of no I'm thrilled to be here to
work with you on the simple platform you were elected on,
which was to bring back the American dream, to bring jobs,
an opportunity for families across the country, and to lower
their costs so they can live their lives and expand expand.

Speaker 12 (01:22:04):
The choices they have.

Speaker 3 (01:22:07):
You let off today talking about gasoline prices all throw
in diesel. If you correct for inflation, they're at multi
decade lows. This is a huge expense, This is huge
constraint on people's lives. We should celebrate that natural gas
has become our main industrial fuel powering factories around the country.

(01:22:27):
Natural gas prices are quite low in this country and
they're lower than in any.

Speaker 12 (01:22:31):
Country in the world.

Speaker 3 (01:22:33):
The reason for that is the United States produces two
times more natural gas than the second largest natural gas
producer in.

Speaker 12 (01:22:41):
The world, and four times.

Speaker 3 (01:22:43):
More natural gas than the number three and number four
producers in the world. So you've opened up American opportunity
and energy. Together with the work of Secretary Bergham, administrators, Zelton,
Secretary Lutnik, Secretary of Rollmans made it easy to produce
energy in America again, and those benefits are flowing. I

(01:23:05):
could go on about this stuff forever, but let me
today talk about one specific area of energy, electricity that's
in the front of people's minds. When the day you
were inaugurated, we get hold of all the data. We
can look at the resource plans of utilities across the country.
What you inherited when you arrived was a plan over

(01:23:27):
the next five years to close one hundred gigawatts a
reliable electric generation so that's one hundred large power plants. Now,
that was offset with a plan to build twenty two
gigawats of reliable electricity generation. Their plan was to close
more than four times as much electricity generating capacity as

(01:23:50):
they were going to build. In that five year period,
how do we lead the world in artificial intelligence and
for shrinking our supply of reliable electricity.

Speaker 12 (01:24:00):
How do we reshore steel and.

Speaker 3 (01:24:02):
Aluminum and automobiles and semiconductors and all those jobs Americans
want back in our country when we're degrading and shrinking
our energy system. We were going to hand that leadership
to China in artificial intelligence, not just to our economic loss,
but to our huge national security loss. Your team around

(01:24:22):
this table, and almost everyone.

Speaker 12 (01:24:24):
Around this table is involved.

Speaker 3 (01:24:25):
In it is just to completely pivot dramatically. We're stopping
the closure of all these plants way before their retirement age.
Some plants get to their end of life. That's a
small percent of the plan closures. Most of those were
just political nonsense at the cost to American taxpayers. So
we have rapid new construction of power plants under in

(01:24:48):
the United States.

Speaker 16 (01:24:49):
We're doing everything we can with suppliers who build.

Speaker 12 (01:24:52):
The equipment for these power plants.

Speaker 3 (01:24:54):
They've got to build their factories bigger to build power
plants in America.

Speaker 12 (01:24:57):
People thought those days were pasted.

Speaker 16 (01:24:58):
We weren't going to build big things America anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:25:01):
We're just gonna keep sending it over to Asia and
overseas and just.

Speaker 12 (01:25:04):
Just buy other people's stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:25:06):
Totally nuts economically, totally nuts for national security, and of
course crushing for working Americans, particularly Americans that work with
their hands.

Speaker 12 (01:25:17):
But we are seeing a.

Speaker 3 (01:25:18):
Revitalization of those people of that optimism. You showed that
picture of that plant being built in Arkansas. Dozens of
those under constructions, just in artificial intelligence, but the reshoring
of steel, of aluminum, of plastics, of the fertilizer, semiconductors,
like this, America is the land of opportunity. How do

(01:25:40):
we get to become this awesome nation? Because we believed
in the American dream and we leaned in on it.
But the wealthy in our country and the coastal elites
that live away from where stuff's actually made, they just
lost their way, and politicians.

Speaker 12 (01:25:54):
Just let them have it.

Speaker 3 (01:25:55):
Your tireless campaign and your relentless messaging, maybe people realize
the American dream isn't dead. It just been smother and
we're unsmothering it and setting it loose. God bless your efforts,
God bless your assembly of this team around the stable
or bring the American dream back.

Speaker 2 (01:26:13):
Thank you, Chris. It's a great job you're doing. Appreciate it, Laurie.

Speaker 20 (01:26:17):
Plus, mister President.

Speaker 21 (01:26:19):
Everybody here who spoke works at the Department of Labor,
which I love. They have all the correct talking points.
But I think that's a testament again that we are
all working together every single day. We talk to each
other often, and the workforce, the skilled workforce, the education
factor of retirees.

Speaker 20 (01:26:39):
It's been so.

Speaker 21 (01:26:39):
Important because they all touch the Department of Labor, and
I have the opportunity to work with every single one.
If you all haven't stopped by the Department of Labor,
mister President, and I invite you to see your big
beautiful face on a banner in front of the Department
of Labor, because you are really the transformational president of
the American worker, along with the American flag and President Roosevelt.

Speaker 20 (01:27:01):
Because we're bringing business and labor together.

Speaker 21 (01:27:03):
And it was so honored to unveil that yesterday, and
everybody is taking.

Speaker 20 (01:27:08):
Note of that. You also mentioned.

Speaker 21 (01:27:10):
Crime, and I think it's been important for my colleagues
to recognize that now American workers can return to work
and feel safe, that business owners aren't shutting down their
businesses because they're afraid they can't protect their workers, and
now it's open for business again, and it's starting right here.

Speaker 20 (01:27:26):
In our nation's capital.

Speaker 6 (01:27:28):
Many things have been mentioned.

Speaker 21 (01:27:29):
About consumer confidence of unemployment as holding steady, and more
than two million net jobs for Native born Americans has
been key under your leadership. Eighty four percent of the
workforce and jobs has been produced by the private sector.
I think that was the mission of this administration and
the Department of Labor. And I will continue to say

(01:27:52):
for a little bit longer until I heard you today
the one Big Beautiful Bill because it equals one big
beautiful workforce. And Congress this legislation, it probably will be
the single most important bill that they did sign because
it is protecting our American workforce by expanding pell grants
and childcare and reduction in taxes.

Speaker 20 (01:28:13):
That they can keep more of their hard earned dollars.

Speaker 21 (01:28:15):
I am at the Department of Labor announcing thirty million
dollars in grants for our skilled workforce. That I have
an MoU with Secretary McMahon, I have an MoU with
Administrator Leffler. That's important to share the data points on
how important this is.

Speaker 19 (01:28:31):
In June, we.

Speaker 21 (01:28:32):
Awarded nearly eighty four million dollars in grants for the
capacity of what registered apprenticeships. An executive order to have
one million active apprentices across this nation.

Speaker 20 (01:28:43):
Where we've already registered one hundred and.

Speaker 21 (01:28:44):
Eighty five thousand since in the last few months. One
of the other things that we have done is the
Abiden administration's guidance on cryptocurrency, and thanks to you and
your leadership on that, we've rolled that back. And of
course we're going to see the four oh one k
the investors in our alternative assets. That's been key through
the Department of Labor to work through partnering with our

(01:29:06):
agencies again, as I mentioned before, is important.

Speaker 20 (01:29:09):
As we work together.

Speaker 21 (01:29:11):
I have visited I'll be thirty one states on my
fifty state tour by the end of this month.

Speaker 20 (01:29:17):
I'm headed with.

Speaker 21 (01:29:19):
Secretary Duffy with the South Korean President Lee today as
we move through the ship building.

Speaker 20 (01:29:25):
We will do that in Philly and then I am off.

Speaker 21 (01:29:27):
To New England to talk to those states about how
important the apprenticeship program is. But while I visited Hexell
in Salt Lake City, one hundred percent domestic.

Speaker 20 (01:29:37):
Carbon fiber for the Department of Defenses. They produce they are.

Speaker 21 (01:29:41):
Announcing another billion dollar investment per your executive Order on
advanced manufacturing.

Speaker 20 (01:29:48):
So it is working.

Speaker 21 (01:29:49):
Everything that you have been saying since you were elected
and since we all can put into play.

Speaker 20 (01:29:54):
Has been working.

Speaker 21 (01:29:55):
Ohio, McDonald's is investing three hundred and seventy five thousand
new jobs. The shrimpers I visited as well, and they
need our help in protecting UH, that industry for our
American fishermen in shrimpers in Minnesota. I toured Cambria, uh,
when we're talking about courts, countertops all made in America.

(01:30:15):
And again in Oregon where we are expecting a crackdown.
Thank you for what you were doing with your agents
on ice and thank you for the prosecution that I
hope you will come to Portland, Oregon and crack down.

Speaker 20 (01:30:27):
But while there are still good people.

Speaker 21 (01:30:28):
I was able to visit Buckeye Pacific, really a trading
floor for the timber industry. So we still wanna focus
on great hard working American businesses.

Speaker 20 (01:30:38):
Uh, Mister President.

Speaker 21 (01:30:39):
I couldn't be more excited to ring in Labor Day
in Erie, Pennsylvania for the Labor Day Parade. I will
be there to welcome it. It is an honor to
serve this country. It is an honor to serve UH
under your administration as the Labor Secretary, and we will
kick off and Republicans will own Labor Day again, not Democrats.

Speaker 6 (01:30:57):
We will own it because we are.

Speaker 20 (01:30:59):
And you are the President of the American worker.

Speaker 6 (01:31:01):
So thank you for everything.

Speaker 1 (01:31:02):
Thank you. You're doing a fantastic job. And I will
tell you that Laurie was recommended by the Teamsters and
I said that doesn't really work, doesn't And it turned
out to be one of our best choices.

Speaker 2 (01:31:16):
So I just want to thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:31:17):
And Shawn, thank you, who, as you know, recommended you
very strongly and you really turned out to be a gym.
Thank you.

Speaker 9 (01:31:23):
Was able to talk to the President on the phone
the other day.

Speaker 6 (01:31:25):
He called and you visited, and he said, but.

Speaker 21 (01:31:28):
I know that you were, you know, a little bit
middle of the road and not so sure.

Speaker 20 (01:31:32):
So just President have been a Republican. He's like, what,
I wait, what now I like you even more?

Speaker 1 (01:31:40):
Job, Thank you, love, thank you, dam President.

Speaker 22 (01:31:43):
I'm working with everyone around this table almost daily on legal.

Speaker 6 (01:31:48):
Issues that we're winning on.

Speaker 22 (01:31:50):
But today, because it's Labor Day, President Trump, if I
could focus on public safety, not only domestic but from
our foreign adversaries. And second, Terry McMahon, I know you
know kids are out of school this weekend, it's Labor Day.
And Secretary Duffy, you know our highways are going to
be packed with travelers coming to not only our nation's capital,

(01:32:11):
but all over this country. We're also going to have voters,
Secretary Duffy, Right on our waterways. It is illegal to
be under the influence and on a boat, So get
a designated voter if you're out on our waterways, whether
it's the Potomac or the Gulf of America or the Pacific,
wherever you're out this weekend, people need to be safe.

(01:32:33):
And on an international level, Secretary Rubia, thank you for
all your help on everything we're doing, on everyone around
this room. But yesterday there was a big, big win.
El Mayo fled guilty and he was the co founder
of Sineloa cartel with El Chapo, and there's even a
Narcos Netflix series about these guys. Well now we know

(01:32:56):
the ending. He's going to die in an American prison.
One of the worst Al Chapo and Almayo some of
the worst narco traffickers in our world. And he will
spend life in prison now. And that's so important because
those guys and others throughout this country, throughout this world,
have brought into our country drugs, cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, metha, amphetamines.

(01:33:21):
That's killing our kids, and we have to stop that.
And that's what you've been doing, not only in DC,
but around the country at your leadership and over the weekend.
Parents need to know, with kids out of school, with
people out on our highways and on our waters, do
not take a pill from anyone you know, don't know.

(01:33:44):
Do not buy anything on the street. It could be
laced with something toxic. We've seen so many fentanyl overdoses.
And when you were here in DC, we showed you
pictures of some of the drugs that had been seized
right here in d C.

Speaker 6 (01:33:57):
President.

Speaker 22 (01:33:57):
They were packaged for children, packaged for children, and people
are dying from these around our country. So thank you,
President Trump for your leadership and for letting Americans know
that it's now a safe place to go. But parents
also have to know. College kids have to know to
be vigilant and not take this trash because you could

(01:34:19):
be thinking you're taking exanax and outerall anything and it
could be laced with something very lethal.

Speaker 1 (01:34:25):
So thank you President, great message, and you've been fantastic
this last twelve days in DC. The job you and
your whole groups as all of us. Everyone's talking about
it all over the world. I hate to have to
talk about that, but we have to. It's becoming a
very safe place again. And the work I've seen how
hard you worked at last well from the beginning, in

(01:34:48):
all fairness, but this focus on DC is so important
for the country.

Speaker 2 (01:34:52):
So great job and to everybody.

Speaker 20 (01:34:54):
And President it's a team around.

Speaker 22 (01:34:56):
We're all working hand in hand, side by side, all
of our agencies together to make America. Say, and DC's
safe and Iris, congratulations.

Speaker 9 (01:35:05):
On your baby and I'm so glad that you're safe
now very much.

Speaker 1 (01:35:09):
Thank you, Thank you Pam very much for me, mister VP,
would you like to say so.

Speaker 23 (01:35:14):
Yes, sir, I'll be brief, but I want to congratulate
you in the entire team on all the things that
have been accomplished.

Speaker 24 (01:35:19):
You'll hear about a lot of it.

Speaker 23 (01:35:21):
You've already heard some of it, but I thought it'd
be helpful, miss President, just to take stock, not just
of what we've accomplished, what we will accomplished, but of
the mess that we inherited, because I think it makes
this First Labor Day a bigger.

Speaker 12 (01:35:31):
And more special occasion.

Speaker 23 (01:35:34):
You heard, I think Christy talk about this that all
of the net job growth under the Biden administration had
gone to the foreign born.

Speaker 24 (01:35:40):
Now that net job growth is going to.

Speaker 23 (01:35:42):
American citizens who deserve opportunity in their own country. That's
a great accomplishment you'll hear. I'm sure Scott talk about
the success with tariffs. People forget that we inherited the
largest peacetime deficit in the history of the United States
of America, and now because the President is not letting
foreign countries take advantage of it, us, we're collecting hundreds

(01:36:02):
of billions of dollars trillions of dollars over ten years
and terifts from countries and companies that were formerly taking
advantage of the American people. Here and Pam talk about
the public safety and the success that we've had there.
I happen to believe that maybe the most sacred thing
that we can deliver to American workers is the ability
to live safely and comfortably in their own neighborhoods. Public

(01:36:22):
safety is not just something that should belong to the wealthy,
it should belong to every working man and woman in
the United States of America. And because of the work
of this administration that is happening. And of course, mister President,
you yourself talked about the inflation mess that we inherited
under the Biden administration. Maybe the most striking and even
shocking statistic of the Biden administration is that housing costs
have gone up by one hundred percent over the four

(01:36:44):
years of the Bide administration, literally doubled, making the American
dream of home ownership unaffordable. We've made great strides and
great progress already, but to the American people who are listening,
there's a lot more to do. We're going to keep
on working hard at it. But it's an honor to
do this job President's leadership and with this very great
team to give assembled.

Speaker 24 (01:37:02):
So we've done a lot, but there's a lot more
work to do, and we're very cognizant.

Speaker 1 (01:37:05):
But thank you, sir, very Scott, good sir.

Speaker 25 (01:37:11):
As we've said very often, economic security is national security,
and our country has never been so secure thanks to you.
You have brought us back from the edge. You have
the overwhelming mandate from the American people. You're restoring confidence
in government, a topic that is on the front of

(01:37:31):
everyone's mind. The Federal Reserve. The Federal reserves independence comes
from a political arrangement between itself and the American public.
Having the public's trust is the only thing that gives
it credibility, and you, sir, are restoring trust to government.
You are weeding out the waste, fraud, and abuse, and

(01:37:55):
the old ways of doing things are not good enough.
Seeing a blue collar boom. In the first seven months
of your administration, real blue collar wages have taken off,
and the only other time that they've done this in
the past seventy years was in your previous term. Your
efforts on tax, trade and deregulation have boosted paychecks for

(01:38:18):
American workers while slowing the pace of inflation and lowering
the cost of energy. Inflation has plummeted to just one
point nine percent since you took office, and the economy rebounded,
with real GDP surging three percent last quarter. The blue
collar boom coincides with a cap X comeback in anticipation

(01:38:40):
of your one Big, Beautiful bill, the coming law. Cap
X increased by American businesses by nearly fourteen percent in
the first half of this year.

Speaker 24 (01:38:50):
And as you and I talk about frequently, and as.

Speaker 25 (01:38:54):
That chart or that photo a test, we are going
to see a I believe, a bigger CAPEX boom from here.
This is just the beginning, just the beginning. You have
saved this country by making it the best place in
the world to do business again. Treasury is helping to

(01:39:14):
implement these new provisions as well as no tax on tips,
no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security. This weekend,
I will be meeting with workers from local restaurants to
discuss the positive impacts of the pro labor reforms on
no tax and tips. And I have to tell you,

(01:39:35):
thanks to you. When I go into a restaurant or
stump by a hotel dorman, I am the most popular
person there. And since my first job at age nine
was as a busboy getting tips, I am going to
spend labor day going from restaurant to restaurant talking to
workers who receive substantial amount of tip income, so I'll

(01:39:58):
hear directly from them. One big, beautiful bill is increasing
their take home pay and making a big difference. Now
we can also talk that is domestic on the international front.
You have leveled the international trading system whereby countries took
advantage of US, and that's over.

Speaker 24 (01:40:20):
It's over.

Speaker 25 (01:40:21):
The Treasury Department is taking in record tariff revenues that
I had been saying was running at a rate of
three hundred billion a year. You chastise me for saying
that it's not that that number is too low. And
as usual, you're right that we had a substantial jump

(01:40:43):
from July to August, and I think we're going to
see a bigger jump from August to September. So I
think we could be on our way well over half
a trillion, maybe towards the trillion dollar number. This administration.
Your administration has made a meaningful dnt in the budget deficit.

(01:41:06):
The average budget deficit during this term is twenty six
percent less than the last twelve months under Boten. And
even the CBO, and we don't agree with CBO on everything,
as you said last Friday, on a summer Friday, had
to admit that they believe over the next ten years

(01:41:28):
the budget deficit will be four trillion lower than they
had previously scored four trillion three point three trillion of
tariff income seven hundred billion of lower interest costs, and
I would expect that that number could go up from here. So,
mister President, your return to the White House mark the

(01:41:50):
return of the American worker. Thank you for reclaiming Labor
Day for the American people. You're growing the economy for everyone,
especially the middle and lower income households who suffered dispropor
proportionately under the last administration. And it's an honor to
do this under your leadership.

Speaker 1 (01:42:09):
Thank yeah, You're doing great. Thank you very much.

Speaker 12 (01:42:11):
Ben look sir.

Speaker 26 (01:42:13):
I dropped my second son off at college last week,
and I wasn't planning to say this, but just listening
to everybody, I want to put a little bit of
a personal touch on this work. He started his freshman
year yesterday at Texas A and m for all my
sec friends in the room, thank you for saving college football.

(01:42:34):
By the way, we're all very grateful. The country just
feels different. It just feels different. There's such an optimism
and a love, there's a there's a there's a faith
movement going through, especially with our younger Americans and for
those of us with kids in college. I know we

(01:42:54):
feel it and I experienced it firsthand last week. Moving
moving him and my other older son as well as
we move toward Labor Day. You have made a lot
of dreams come true for a lot of people. But
one of my longtime dreams was for the right to
recapture Labor Day. And I've been talking about this for
almost twenty years in writing about it, that why are

(01:43:15):
we ceding the day that we are celebrating the American
worker to the Democrats, Because this is our day, perhaps
of any day of the entire year, this is our day.
America was founded and fought for by fishermen and farmers
and workmen and etc. The Genesis, the first book of

(01:43:38):
the Bible, talks about the righteousness of work and the
art of creation, and so to be part of this
effort to represent the farmers, the ranchers, the agriculture industry
at this moment in time, which I do believe were
in a revolution. Seventeen seventy six was the first one.
Eighteen sixty three or so with Abraham Lincoln was the second.

(01:44:00):
This is the third with Donald Trump leading the way,
and we are saving America and the idea that we
are putting the worker the very central component of the
American dream at the center of it is the reason.

Speaker 1 (01:44:14):
That it is so so at USDA.

Speaker 26 (01:44:17):
It continues to be my greatest honor to fight for
the original American worker I think the farmer is and
what they represent. And as we are building new systems
and new structures, as we have this year going to
have the best harvest on record for our Roe croppers
and others, what this team has done and is doing

(01:44:37):
to open up those markets to ensure that these farmers
can continue to return prosperity to rural America.

Speaker 1 (01:44:45):
I'll finish with this.

Speaker 26 (01:44:46):
This morning we had a working group with six of
our cabinet members, Bobby Kennedy representing healthcare, Linda McMahon Education,
Lee Zelden Deregulation, Kelly Leffler's small business, Lori Chavez Dremer Labor,
and Scotti Turner Housing. And how you leading the way
and your vision, how that will return the golden Age

(01:45:07):
to rural America, to the very fabric of our country.
And whether it's better hospitals, better education, more opportunity, less government,
better and bigger small businesses, better opportunities for our workers,
and better housing, and of course the agriculture piece of.

Speaker 1 (01:45:22):
That through the big beautiful bill.

Speaker 26 (01:45:25):
The bill what it did, the greatest investment in rural
America in history, and now the opportunity to effectuate that
is again a game changer, a country saver, and.

Speaker 20 (01:45:35):
What a joy to be able to do it under
your leadership.

Speaker 1 (01:45:37):
So thank you, really good, thank you, be stated, Thank
you very much. Scott.

Speaker 16 (01:45:42):
Yes, sir, thank you, mister President.

Speaker 24 (01:45:45):
I'm so grateful to.

Speaker 27 (01:45:46):
Be here to celebrate Labor Day with the greatest team
in America. And it is football season, so I'm happy
about that. But mister President, I want to say thank
you for, as Brooke said, reclaiming Labor Day, and you've
been a tremendous champion for the American worker. I come

(01:46:10):
from a hard working family, as many people around this
table do, and so thank you for helping us to
change the conversation. And I believe we are changing the
conversation around the kitchen table. And as everybody knows, you know,
my job is a steward HUD and we have at
HUD been very intentional about changing the conversation about the

(01:46:31):
dignity of work and the dignity and the honor of
family formation through work, and how the younger generation when
they see their parents' work, how they're incentivized to work,
and that you know, America is not a welfare state.
But America was built on small business. It was built
on entrepreneurship, and so as it pertains to housing, we're

(01:46:55):
being very focused on that and even some that receive
HUD funding to make sure, like a Section three, when
you receive HUT funding, that you are giving opportunities for
the most vulnerable Americans that you serve to have work,
to have opportunities to work, to have work requirements. Work
requirements are not a bad work, that's a great work.

(01:47:16):
Time limits is a great word to incentivize people, able body,
able minded people to work. And I believe that we
are under your leadership, Sir, changing that conversation in America
to where working as an honorable thing. And UH Secretary
Wright talked about revitalization. Revitalization means to bring new life,

(01:47:37):
and I believe we're bringing new life to American mister President,
through work and through all the jobs that people are
doing around this table and with the one big, beautiful
bill to build the most extensive tax break in American history.
Opportunity zones are now made permanent. And you know how
passionate I am, and you are too served about opportunity zones.

(01:47:59):
Uh and and so this will allow us to continue
to build affordable housing around our country. And mister Vice President,
I'm coming your way. I'm coming to Columbus later this
week and to see how we can continue to build
affordable housing in our country with opportunity zones. And you know,
one million people, mister President, were lifted out of poverty

(01:48:21):
because of opportunity zones. Ninety billion dollars of private money
was invested in opportunity zones, urban, tribal, and rule. And
now that they've been made permanent, we're looking for millions
more to be lifted out of poverty, one hundred billion
dollars to be invested, hundreds of thousands of jobs to
be created, hundreds of thousands of units of housing to

(01:48:42):
come online. And so, sir, I see it here very
excited about the future of this country. I'm very proud
to be at this table, humbled to do so, and
Hud we're on a good path. So thank you for
all your support and helping us certain.

Speaker 1 (01:48:57):
Great job with you, and I want to give credit
to Tim Scott, great senator from a place called South
Carolina that we love right and Tim really came up
with opportunity zones and we did a good job of
working with him and together we created something that nobody
speaks of very much, but it's probably the most successful

(01:49:17):
thing that's ever been done of its kind. It's been amazing.
So tim' scott deserves a lot of credit for that.
Thank you, Thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:49:26):
So that's all go ahead, Thank you, mister President.

Speaker 28 (01:49:28):
And I get the opportunity to go hand by hand
with all of these people as they moved their d
REX through the Office of Management budget and I wanted
to zoom out for a second. In the first term,
you gave us a goal of two for one, and
then we outperformed it through your leadership, we came in
around five and a half six for one. And then
as you're running for your second term, you put out

(01:49:50):
a goal that when you put it out, I was
thinking to myself, that's going to be pretty ambitious goal.
You said ten for one. Well, where we are right
now in just one month, in one year, basically eight months,
we are at two hundred and forty five deregulatory initiatives
planned by these agencies.

Speaker 24 (01:50:07):
That comes out to thirty for one.

Speaker 28 (01:50:10):
So we are making incredible strides and you know, as
you're focused on the details of each one, I mean,
these aren't small things. Endangerment finding is one of the
most deregulatory things we've in the history.

Speaker 4 (01:50:22):
Of this country.

Speaker 28 (01:50:23):
NIPA reformed incredibly deregulatory WOTIS just came in, which is
Waters of the United States. So every single one of
these agencies is doing incredible work when it comes to
deregulatory And when you add that to the work being
done to get us going on energy reduced spending, we're
going to lower costs for.

Speaker 24 (01:50:44):
The American people.

Speaker 28 (01:50:45):
We're going to be able to have innovative jobs and
get them back to work.

Speaker 24 (01:50:49):
So thank you for your leadership, mister President.

Speaker 2 (01:50:52):
Appreciate it. John Central Casting, I go. You send that.

Speaker 29 (01:50:58):
What mister President coul to be with everyone today.

Speaker 10 (01:51:01):
And as we're talking about jobs and workforce at CIA,
consistent with your directives to all of us, we've embraced
your mantra for a leaner, more effective, more efficient workforce.

Speaker 1 (01:51:14):
But at CIA, mister President, we had.

Speaker 10 (01:51:16):
An additional challenge because, as you know, at times, our
workforce had been misdirected, its focus put on political narratives,
some that even worked against you and always worked against
the American people. But under your leadership and your direction,

(01:51:38):
we have been focused back on the core mission of
what CIA is supposed to be doing, which is to
provide you and this entire incredible team around the.

Speaker 4 (01:51:46):
Table with a decisive strategic.

Speaker 10 (01:51:49):
Advantage in accomplishing your goals and your success in that regard,
the examples are clear and many. With regard to Iran,
everyone knows that our dood partners executed that mission flawlessly,
But flawless military operations are subject to flawless intelligence, and
as you know, mister President, CIA was the backbone in

(01:52:11):
terms of its intelligence operations in providing that flawless execution
that allowed you and your team to obliterate Iranian nuclear
facilities and set back a nuclear program by years.

Speaker 4 (01:52:24):
Likewise, with regard to your ability.

Speaker 10 (01:52:27):
To prevent and to preempt wars between India and Pakistan,
between Armenia and Azerbaijan, between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic
of Congo, in all those cases, CIA intelligence supported you
and your entire team in making that possible. It's not
just you, it's folks around this table. Secretary Best and

(01:52:48):
Secretary Luckman trade representative career and their great successful negotiations
on trade and tariffs. Again, it was a CIA workforce
working to enable them to accomplish your goal. So as
we roll into Labor Day, I tell you that the
CIA workforce, that the Trump CIA is grateful to be
focused on what it's supposed to be, which is helping

(01:53:10):
you prevent an end wars and to make America safer.

Speaker 1 (01:53:15):
Thank you very much. You've been really fantastic. But I'm
not surprised. I've KNOWNE John a long time. I'm not
surprised at all. Thank you very much. See you please,
mister President. Working for this government, for you is the
greatest honor of my life. I tell it to everybody,
and I really do feel that way. And I thank you.

Speaker 30 (01:53:36):
Because it's a privilege to go out there and represent
you in your humanitarian effort, in your in your goals
of solving conflicts all over the world. I think there
were actually more than seven conflicts that you've put to
bed in the in the last eight months, and I

(01:53:59):
hear these travel all over the world in hostage Square,
they talk about you reverentially.

Speaker 2 (01:54:04):
It's really quite amazing.

Speaker 30 (01:54:06):
I sometimes wish that I had a camp recorder with
me and I could put you right there as I
listened to it. I was in Gaza, the first American
diplomat on your behalf, and as we delivered food and
aid pursuing to.

Speaker 1 (01:54:20):
Your new aid initiative.

Speaker 30 (01:54:23):
Pushed forth by your great Secretary of State Mark Arrubio,
who it is a privilege for me to work alongside,
the people were applauding you.

Speaker 2 (01:54:33):
The signs were up.

Speaker 30 (01:54:34):
I mean, these are people who I just don't think
you get the proper credit for it all.

Speaker 1 (01:54:39):
We are negotiating multiple.

Speaker 30 (01:54:42):
Entries into the Abraham Peace Accords because of your vision Azerbaijan,
all these different conflicts that we're out there on your
behalf on, they're all these are people who have never
really seen the world change in this way. Peace through
strength really really we works Russia, Ukraine, Iran, Israel, Hamas.

(01:55:05):
We're having meetings all this week on all three of
those conflicts, and we hope to settle them before the
end of this year.

Speaker 16 (01:55:12):
Your team is nothing.

Speaker 30 (01:55:13):
Short of incredible, and there's only one thing I wish
for that that noble committee finally gets its act together
and realizes that you are the single finest candidate since
the piece this noble award was ever talked about. To
receive that reward beyond your success is game changing out

(01:55:35):
in the world today, and I hope everybody one day
wakes up and realizes that, Thank you, see.

Speaker 12 (01:55:47):
Jameson, mister President.

Speaker 31 (01:55:50):
I like to think of Labor Day as the Trump
Trade policy Day, because everyone around this table and everyone
listening knows that one of the major reasons why American workers,
an organized labor voted for you is because of your
trade policy and the policies you've had and advocated for
for forty years or more. You have reset global trade
policy in the past few months, and it shows that

(01:56:14):
it's been working for American workers when you look at
President Biden. In the last quarter of twenty twenty four,
median weekly earnings fell two point one percent. In the
first quarter of your term, they went up three point
three percent. And that's why we're doing the trade policy
we're doing. It's to help the workers of the United
States of America and they're the best in the world,

(01:56:34):
but they can't do it without a level playing field.
And you have flipped the script. For many years the
other countries had high tariffs and high non tariff barriers.
While we were open to write to all of their
labor and services and goods and capital.

Speaker 4 (01:56:48):
You've flipped it.

Speaker 31 (01:56:49):
Now we have the tariffs and they have lowered theirs
and the nontariff barriers, and we could have done it
without you and the leverage you've created. So between the
tariffs and the deals, the hot streak continues for the
workers of America. Thank you, thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (01:57:03):
Really good job, by the way, just good negotiator, good negotiator,
Thank you.

Speaker 32 (01:57:10):
Please well much pros that I feel like, as everybody
here has talked about how great working with this team
is in all, but I do feel a special need
that you've given me the privilege of working with the
best of America. I get to take care of the veterans.
I get to take care of the veterans who have
Labor Day really finds its roots in if you think
about it, we wouldn't have Labor Day if it wasn't

(01:57:31):
for many and women who would leave their jobs and
go fight this nation's battles to keep us free and
independent so that they would have jobs to come home to.
And over the past few years they've been coming home
to many times a government that was heaping them by
holding them back, taxing them, regulating. And now we have
veterans who represent the bill, the big beautiful bill they're

(01:57:51):
the beneficiaries of, and I get to see them all
the time because they're receiving the benefit, because they see
the jobs, they see the care that they're in given.
And these veterans can look at their country with pride
knowing that we're taking care of them, just like you
told me to do. When you're only statement, you said
to me, I asked you what to do. You say,
go take care of my veterans. Well, that's what we're doing.
One of the other things that we're doing right now
is for many of you, I love to hear how
you're deregulating everything.

Speaker 24 (01:58:13):
And I've worked from Congress and worked with many of before, I.

Speaker 32 (01:58:15):
Get to do the same thing with the largest bureaucratic
organization in the government.

Speaker 24 (01:58:19):
We're deregulating from the inside.

Speaker 32 (01:58:21):
And it's amazing to me because we have such a
powerful workforce at the VA who really want to do good.
But yet they kept tripping themselves up, they kept making
their own We'd take one step forward and put a
regulation in it put them three steps back, and it
always hurt our veterans at the end.

Speaker 24 (01:58:35):
We're taking that away. We're making community care again.

Speaker 32 (01:58:37):
It's breadent. We talked about this yesterday, remaining community care
a part of our direct care system. So if a
veteran wants to get into the community, they have our
direct care and they also have the ability to go
into the community, something that the previous administration decided they
wanted to keep everybody inside because they thought it was
a fiefdom they were building. I'm telling you, we're not
building a fieft from at the BEA. We're trying to
take care of the service organization that takes care of veterans.

Speaker 24 (01:58:57):
So how do we do that.

Speaker 32 (01:58:58):
We made best medical interests can send a veteran to
the community with a lot quicker without having to.

Speaker 24 (01:59:03):
Worry about miles and time logged and wake time, just
get them the help they need.

Speaker 32 (01:59:07):
We've actually expanded out and it's made a difference in
this this regulation and also unleashed a workforce that is
now free of the collective bargain agreements and other things
that have kept them from being able to do the
job of national security that they've been intended to I'm
actually giving them the benefit of the doubt to actually
go be the workers that they're called to be.

Speaker 24 (01:59:26):
And that's what labor Day is about. The VA is
going to have the best workers.

Speaker 32 (01:59:29):
But just to let you know how that's working out,
wait time that our hospital are going down because we're
getting in the Our hospitals are in a community here
and then one for you as present. You heard about
this a lot, and that was backlocks at the backlock
when I first came in. I've said this before. In
February we had over two hundred and sixty thousand backlog.
That means over one hundred and twenty five days of
not getting an answer. In just a little over four

(01:59:50):
and a half months, we've dropped that over one hundred thousand.
We're under one hundred and fifty and heading down to
historic lows. We'll be within the next month lower than
any time under the previous hitting ante at all.

Speaker 24 (02:00:00):
That means our veterans are getting the hell they need.
So when you look at it this way, we've opened
new facilities. We put in new facilities in places where
workers can get to.

Speaker 32 (02:00:08):
We've expanded out hours over a million extra hours, so
veterans younger veterans in particular, can get off of work
and bring their sales and get their appointments in after
hours or on Saturdays. That's what it means to be
in the Trump administration. That's what it means to take
care of veterans. That's what it means for Labor Day,
because you can't forget the ones who fought for us
to be on this table today.

Speaker 24 (02:00:27):
It's all because of what you've done in the province
that we've.

Speaker 1 (02:00:29):
Made well, you've done a tremendous job, and I hear
it all the time. We have been ninety three percent
approval rating at the VA now and you know what
it was before. It was like horroble, So thank you
very much.

Speaker 12 (02:00:46):
As president.

Speaker 33 (02:00:47):
There's been some conversation about the Pete and Bobby challenge.
I would just note that I don't think Peter Bobby
could hold these sticks for two.

Speaker 12 (02:00:55):
And a half hours.

Speaker 24 (02:00:56):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 33 (02:00:58):
I didn't want that to be the challenge, so Beau,
I think hundred push ups might be easy compared to.

Speaker 2 (02:01:05):
You didn't have this problem with Biden. It was in
and out very quickly.

Speaker 33 (02:01:10):
So kudos on Labor Day to the audio team that's
holding the sticks. But as president, it's pretty great to
celebrate Labor Day with the builder who loves labor, who
loves the men and women who built this country. The
people that that that that sweat, that have great skills,
they have grit, They do the dirty jobs of America

(02:01:32):
that have made this country great, and you know them
very well because you have worked with them. The great
Trump projects have come from the very men and women
were going into this weekend to celebrate a deal. We
all want to claim Labor Day in our departments, but
i'mnclaim this aid DOT because you know, roads, bridges, pipelines, shipbuilding, rail,
passenger and freight all fall under the great men and

(02:01:56):
women who wear boots and make this country wonderful. And
at DOT we don't want to have the Congress spend money.
We want to take the money that Congress gives us
and actually deploy it and put these men and women
to work building the great projects of this country that
you said, the big beautiful projects that connect this country.

(02:02:17):
And that's why we have got rid of the DEI,
We've got rid of the green. We've done what we
can to streamline the regulation to move these projects faster.
Time is money and time has been money. Even Democrats
agree now that it takes too long to go through
the regulatory process. So we're going to move these projects faster,

(02:02:38):
putting in the great American worker back to work.

Speaker 12 (02:02:42):
I want to make a quick comment.

Speaker 33 (02:02:43):
We've all probably talked about this horrific accident in Florida,
and I appreciate the help of Christy and Marco on
this very issue. But in May we said, listen, it's
a safety issue. If you can't proficiently speak the English language.
States a little over a month to comply, and Washington, California,

(02:03:04):
and New Mexico have refused to comply. And by way
the way, this individual in Florida received the CDL from
Washington from California and received the speeding ticket after our
rule went into place, and they didn't stop him.

Speaker 12 (02:03:18):
And had they taken him.

Speaker 33 (02:03:19):
Out of service, he wouldn't have been in Florida and
we would have three beautiful people alive today. And I
just I make that point because it's the work that
maybe no one sees that then you know, shines a
light when horrific things happen, but also that your cabinet
works together and teams up to make a difference for

(02:03:39):
the American people real quickly.

Speaker 29 (02:03:42):
So we have a safety mission at DOT.

Speaker 33 (02:03:44):
I don't know that you'd think of the transit unions
in the greatest cities of the country, New York maybe
being one of them that support us, but they do
because the violence in the subways and on our buses
across the country. The transit workers are the ones who
take the most abuse, and they're grateful for the mission
of everybody around this table fighting to make their communities safer.

Speaker 12 (02:04:06):
So I appreciate everyone's help on that.

Speaker 33 (02:04:09):
But they again, the transit unions love the effort that
all of us have put in together. One quick FAA,
we are we are about to put out a request
for proposals for a big beautiful bill. We got build,
not built, Build. We had twelve point five billion in
the big beautiful bill. We need more. But this is

(02:04:29):
a great start. I expect the middle till the later
part of July will be through the process to bring
the proposed integrators to you for selections, sort of looking
forward forward to that we will have the most learning
from you. This is going to be the greatest contract
ever crafted in the federal government for this build for
air traffic control. Really, it's innovative when we have unique tools.

(02:04:51):
That FA is going to be a great contract. Bobby
left me out of the windmill conversation. Bobby, but I
so there's a study done in the last stration that
said if you build windmills one point two miles within
one point two miles from our roadway, it can mess
up the automation and technology on a car. Same thing

(02:05:13):
one point two miles from rail. The last administration buried
that report, mister President, And so now what we've said
is what we're gonna do is say, listen, I'm sorry.
It's it is a safety risk to build windmills this
close to roads. By the way they want to build
them by roads and by rail. We're going to say
no more. It is a safety risk, and we have
a report to show that. And just real quick, that's weird.

(02:05:36):
I wasn't invited to the party, but you know, I'm still.

Speaker 12 (02:05:40):
Maybe next time, Bobby.

Speaker 29 (02:05:43):
One last thing. We have this Mars to Moon mission
at NASA.

Speaker 1 (02:05:47):
No Moon to Mars mission.

Speaker 33 (02:05:48):
Sorry about that, but if you sometimes people think that
space doesn't matter to them, but if you look at
every rocket that's launched the machinists, the truck drivers, the electricians,
the welders, the build these rockets. In the industry that
has developed over the course of the last ten years
in space. It's truly remarkable. It's not just you know,

(02:06:09):
rich guys standing up rockets in partnership with NASA. There's
a whole industry of working men and women who we
celebrate this weekend that build, refurbish, design the rockets that
are making America the leader in space. So thank you
for your leadership and happy to celebrate here this weekend
with you.

Speaker 2 (02:06:26):
Really agree, and he is doing a good job at NASA.

Speaker 1 (02:06:29):
TU and we are. I think we'll have some pretty excite,
exciting announcements and you enjoy it fun. I said, how
about temporary? He said, well, can I go a little
bit longer? He loves it.

Speaker 2 (02:06:40):
He loves it, and he's doing a really good job.
Thank you very much, appreciate it that please.

Speaker 14 (02:06:46):
So making America great again is one of the key statements,
and people don't always understand what you mean. So we
always talk about eighteen seventy to nineteen thirteen. In the
mid nineteen eighties.

Speaker 1 (02:07:02):
America owned more of the rest of the world than
they owned of us.

Speaker 12 (02:07:06):
We owned one.

Speaker 14 (02:07:07):
Hundred and forty billion dollars of the rest of the
world net of what they.

Speaker 1 (02:07:12):
Owned of us.

Speaker 14 (02:07:13):
And when you came into office this time, the rest
of the world owned twenty four trillion dollars more of
our assets.

Speaker 2 (02:07:24):
We owned of theirs.

Speaker 14 (02:07:25):
And so when people argue with you about you know,
the trade deficit is nothing. The trade deficit sends one
point to trillion of our dollars to them.

Speaker 29 (02:07:37):
And what do they do with it?

Speaker 14 (02:07:39):
They buy the Great America. Because when we learned in college,
what we learned was that if you keep printing these dollars,
they're supposed to devalue. But the problem is we're too smart.
We invented the light bulb, the transistor, the GPU. So
they keep buying us. And the only president ever to

(02:07:59):
understand that. You understood it in the eighties and the nineties,
and I used to see you on TV and you'd say, God,
what are these people doing? And finally we've changed it.
So let's go over what we changed. So Japan and
Korea they're never going to open their markets to us.
So we've negotiated nine hundred billion dollars that they're giving

(02:08:21):
you to invest in national and economic security in America.
The European Union, the second largest economy, twenty trillion dollars,
and all the experts said you'd never get a deal
done with them, And watching you at Scotland was my
favorite thing. Right, fifteen percent, they'll pay us fifteen percent

(02:08:42):
and we will pay zero so we can export to
their twenty trillion dollar economy and they can pay to
come to the great American consumer.

Speaker 29 (02:08:53):
Right.

Speaker 2 (02:08:54):
So a couple of other things.

Speaker 1 (02:08:57):
Four days before you took office.

Speaker 34 (02:09:00):
Four days before you took office, the Commerce Department, which
had the Chips money, they set up this thing called
gnat Cast, which was a make believe not for profit,
and they signed contracts to wire them seven point.

Speaker 14 (02:09:13):
Four billion dollars. This was just nonsense, so we stopped
the payment. We've got the money. It's an illegal thing
to try to set up a department that's not the
Department of Commerce that kind of acts like the Department
of Commerce. And what was it filled with all these
people who worked for the Biden administration. I mean, it's
exact corruption that you talk about. Seven point four billion

(02:09:37):
dollars now clawed back. Last week was the most fun
in one week. Intel came in.

Speaker 1 (02:09:45):
Right.

Speaker 14 (02:09:46):
The Biden administration had given eleven billion dollars to Intel,
given it to them, done corporate, just gift, and you
turn that into really you know, it was like less
than five minutes of covering and Intel agreed to give
us ten percent of their company, which of course was
worth eleven billion dollars.

Speaker 12 (02:10:08):
So it's not socialism.

Speaker 2 (02:10:11):
This is capitalism.

Speaker 14 (02:10:12):
If you give someone eleven billion dollars, who's just building
in America. They're not doing something special, they're building in America.
And their CEO told the president he didn't need the grant,
and you said, well, then why don't we get something
for it? So it's amazing. You're going to watch semiconductors
come home. Right, we don't produce semiconductors. We've got one

(02:10:36):
hundred and sixty five billion for TSMC, but you're going
to watch the whole ecosystem come home because Donald Trump
is the only president understands the magnet to make them
come home. Is one word which used to be a
favorite word. Now it's dropped to number four, which is
Tariff's right. Tarif's going to bring semiconductors home. They are
going to empower Bobby to execute MFM tariff's are going

(02:10:59):
to be one of those tools that he's going.

Speaker 1 (02:11:01):
To use to do that.

Speaker 14 (02:11:02):
We're going to do it for furniture, we're getting autos.
We got to steal aluminum. I mean it has been
a blast, a blast.

Speaker 1 (02:11:09):
So two more things.

Speaker 14 (02:11:12):
The Department of Commerce is going to start issuing its
statistics on the blockchain because you are the crypto president,
and we are going to put out GDP on the
blockchain so people can.

Speaker 12 (02:11:24):
Use the blockchain for data distribution.

Speaker 14 (02:11:28):
And then we're going to make that available to the
entire government so all of you can do it. We're
just ironing out all the details so we can do it.

Speaker 1 (02:11:36):
Patents.

Speaker 2 (02:11:38):
We have given tens, if not hundreds.

Speaker 14 (02:11:41):
Of billions of dollars to universities for them to do research,
and they invent things, and you know who owns those.

Speaker 1 (02:11:48):
Patents, the universities. So we are going to make a
deal with them all, which is if we give them
the money.

Speaker 14 (02:11:56):
Don't you think it's fair that the United States of
America and the taxpayers who funded it get a piece
of that, right.

Speaker 1 (02:12:05):
So we wrote a letter to Harvard. So Linda and
I working together, I mean, it's so much fun.

Speaker 2 (02:12:09):
To work with everybody here.

Speaker 14 (02:12:10):
I mean, we just have a blast, you know, because
Linda's hitting Harvard and she says, what can we do?
And now we send him a patent letter and we'll
hit him again. So we're having fun together. This is
the greatest cabinet working for the greatest president. And I
just want to say thank you. I'm having the time
of my life working for you, mister president.

Speaker 2 (02:12:34):
That was very well stated. Some things people don't think
of too much. Thank you very much.

Speaker 35 (02:12:40):
Great job, Pete, sir, amend to what Howard said, and
I would just say, heading into Labor Day from the
American military. So we happen to be the largest employer
in America. We like to think we have a different form.

Speaker 24 (02:12:52):
Of employees.

Speaker 35 (02:12:54):
Who need to be the toughest and the strongest and
the most well trained and the most lethal. And under
the previous administration and for decades, frankly, it was social justice,
it was political correctness. It was divisive ideologies seeping into
the ranks and changing how well we do our job.

Speaker 3 (02:13:13):
No more.

Speaker 35 (02:13:14):
Now it is only merit based, gender neutral, color blind,
the best of the best, from the top to the bottom.

Speaker 12 (02:13:22):
That's our expectation and so you've enabled that.

Speaker 35 (02:13:25):
So from the troops directly, which they asked me to
say all the time, thank you for your leadership, for
your boldness, for your clarity, for common sense, providing a
shield for the rest of us to put America first
and to apply peace through strength.

Speaker 2 (02:13:40):
We're in the strength business.

Speaker 35 (02:13:41):
That's our jobs to stand behind everybody here and alongside
John in everything they do to keep the country safe.
And the world is noticing, and I wish everybody could.
There were two meetings yesterday that I think tell the story.
One was because today happens to be the four year
anniversary of what happened at Abbygate in Afghanistan. Mister President,

(02:14:02):
you had the families in who if you've met with
multiple times, who when the cameras were on and not on, acknowledged, Sir,
you were the only one that gave them a proper
greeding that recognized what they gave their sons and daughters
in the debacle that was the withdrawal in Afghanistan. That
we will bring accountability for the Defense Department to our investigation.
It's good, but at the same time, the world sadly

(02:14:25):
took notice, whether it was Israel, whether it's Ukraine. Those
wars never would have started if you were president. Instead,
they looked at the foolishness of Joe Biden. Under your military,
your Pentagon, we are restoring deterrence. Whether it's Midnight Hammer
and those beautiful b two's thirty seven hours straight, whether
it's counter drug operations in our own hemisphere, whether it's

(02:14:46):
the border working with Christy and the National Security Team,
whether it's LA, whether it's Washington, DC, you name it,
whether it's Europe, our allies paying five percent, now our
allies in the Indo Pacific stepping up to do the same.

Speaker 1 (02:14:58):
That's a recognition that ARIA leadership is here.

Speaker 35 (02:15:02):
And then in the second meeting, we were talking about
what we're doing in DC and Pam's taking the lead.
I have to say, just pause for a second when
I look around this table. Yes, there's a national security
team of Steve Wikoff and John and Scott and Howard
and the Vice President and Susie and Christy and Tulsey.
But to every person here, we work together on a
daily basis. And if you call me and I call you,

(02:15:23):
if the answer is yes, how do we do it together?
I think that's exceptional. It's what the American people deserve,
and you've demanded that, sir, So I'm very much appreciated.
In that meeting on DC, I started my sentence by
saying the Department of Defense, to which you said, that
just doesn't sound right.

Speaker 4 (02:15:40):
So maybe next time we're.

Speaker 24 (02:15:41):
Here, my car will read Department of War.

Speaker 1 (02:15:43):
We'll see.

Speaker 36 (02:15:45):
But here's the thing, here's what people miss. It's not
just about words. It's about the warrior ethos. It's about
what the department is supposed to do.

Speaker 35 (02:15:56):
George Washington started the Department of War because he wanted
to win our wars.

Speaker 19 (02:16:01):
They did.

Speaker 35 (02:16:01):
Our founders didn't want endless foreign entanglements. They didn't want
endless contingencies and deployments. They wanted an empowered military. That
was the handcuffs were taken off to fight, to win,
and then bring those troops home. So my platoonic Guan
tanam Obey, our motto was those who long for peace
must declare for war. We must prepare for war. We

(02:16:24):
don't want war, we don't seek it. You are the
peace President, sir, because we are strong, our enemies know
what we will do. And so whether it's Secretary of
War or Secretary of Defense, that warrior ethos is changing.
We're going back to basics. Our drill instructors can be
drill instructors again, sir. So from the minute of the
tactical of standards to the strategic of B two bombers,

(02:16:46):
we're focused on what matters. Had a meeting yesterday on
Golden Dome for America, which is on track to deliver
strategically for the American people. Munitions and the Deputy Secretary
of making sure our stockpiles are overflowing.

Speaker 4 (02:16:59):
That's our job.

Speaker 12 (02:17:00):
I'm an honored to be a part of it, sir.

Speaker 4 (02:17:01):
Thank you for your leadership.

Speaker 1 (02:17:02):
That's I think I like Department of War better, but
we'll make that decision right.

Speaker 2 (02:17:07):
But you've been great.

Speaker 1 (02:17:09):
Thank you very much, sir. Go ahead.

Speaker 37 (02:17:11):
Well, mister President. First of all, everyone's made this comment already.
It needs to be echoed again. You you were elected
as the president of working Americans, and that's why this
Labor Day is so meaningful for me personally.

Speaker 29 (02:17:21):
This is the most meaningful labor day of my life
is someone with four jobs and so.

Speaker 37 (02:17:34):
But on the point, you made it very clear from
the outset, even in foreign policy, everything we did has
to be pro American it has to make America stronger
or safer and more prosperous. And there's just a few
things I want to touch you because it involves your team,
under your leadership, making that happened.

Speaker 29 (02:17:49):
The first is, for the first time in.

Speaker 37 (02:17:51):
The modern era, we are truly on offense against organized
cartels that are pumping poison killer poison into our cities.

Speaker 29 (02:17:58):
And that's a team effort.

Speaker 37 (02:18:00):
Christy's team, it's it's Pete's team, it's it's Pam's team,
and I'm.

Speaker 29 (02:18:03):
Obviously it's under your leadership.

Speaker 37 (02:18:05):
And by the way, we're getting incredible economic international cooperation.
Countries just in the last week, Ecuador, Paraguay, Guyana, Trinidad, today,
Argentina all joining us or.

Speaker 29 (02:18:16):
Trying to be helpful in advancing this.

Speaker 37 (02:18:18):
And this is just you know, one thing is there,
we're going to stop drugs from coming in and we're
having record seizures. But another thing is to build an
international coalition against the scourge on the international stage. The
second is mass migration, illegal mass migration, which is dangerous
for the country but harmful for American workers. What's happening
on the border is essential, but it's not just what's
happening on the border. And again, Christie and our team

(02:18:39):
of an essential inness. We have countries all over the
world that are actually helping us, whether it's through safe
third country agreements, whether through it's stopping the migration flow
from coming here in the first place. Incredible and international cooperation.
We redefined our border. It's no longer just our physical border.
We are doing things ahead of time to prevent this
from happening and getting cooperations from that we've never seen before.

(02:19:01):
And last, I would say, and Steve touched upon this, who,
by the way, is doing a phenomenal job. Steve is
both a great negotiator and he's also a nice guy,
which are two tough things to.

Speaker 29 (02:19:10):
Pull off the head.

Speaker 37 (02:19:11):
But it's incredible. But we both work for the peacemaker
and chief. Think about it. How fortunate we are as
Americans to have a president who's made peace of priority.
And just since the last time we've met, there was
a war going on in Cambodia and Thailand between Cambodia
and Tiland. The President just picks up the phone and
tells him to stop fighting, and within seventy two hours
the fighting it stopped. You know, there's no other leader

(02:19:32):
in the world that could have done it, and the
fact that you were willing to spend time to do
that and to make it happen is of course the
central and then the war that didn't happen because of
Azerbaijan and Armenia coming here to sign that peace deal,
which is historic in so many countries. You know, I
mean countries set out there, it's never going to happen.
It isn't possible, and it occurred, mister President, because of
your leadership. And then on a point of personal privilege,

(02:19:52):
I wasn't even going to raise it. I didn't even
talked to you about this. It's a little controversial, but
I think I need to bring it up. At this
time of the year. This thing about people getting married
eat on Saturdays during college football season is a scourge,
mister President.

Speaker 29 (02:20:05):
I don't know we can have an executive.

Speaker 12 (02:20:07):
Order on this.

Speaker 37 (02:20:08):
It's insane, but it's really difficult. There's you know, seven
other months of the year that people can get married.
So I just wanted to say, yeah, very very difficult, Thank.

Speaker 2 (02:20:17):
You, fantastic, thank you. Death please.

Speaker 4 (02:20:22):
Well, mister President, you've heard from around the table how
people are grateful to have an opportunity to be part
of this team, have an opportunity to work for you,
and have an opportunity to serve the American people. And
I would say as we head into this Labor Day,
the thing that really differentiates you and your leadership and
everybody around this table is one word, and that's respect.
Because this is a This is a group of people
that respect our farmers and ranchers. We respect the people

(02:20:46):
that are in law enforcement. That's a huge change. Respecting
the people that are in uniform, respecting our veterans, respecting
our shrimp fishermen, I mean, whoever it is in this country,
people that are building our roads in This whole group
embodies that sense of respect. And when we start with that,
and then who benefits we come up with policies that

(02:21:07):
help those people. And what have you done? You've led
an opportunity for us to have the lower taxes, way
lower deregulation, record, amounts of investment that's coming into this country.
We're going to be seeing lower interest rates. All of
those things coming together is a gift to the working people.
The policies are lifting everybody up. There's one hundred and
forty million Americans that get up in gorby day and

(02:21:30):
drive to work. They commute, And one of the most
obscene things of the prior administration was their energy policies
was creating a hidden tax on those people. The poorer
you were, the usually the further you had to drive
because you couldn't afford the housing, if you were working
at a hotel, if you're working in a service industry,
we were taxing them. A hidden tax on them was
the high cost of energy. You're the only, perhaps one

(02:21:52):
of the only leaders in the world that understood the
connection between peace abroad and prosperity at home was directly
to energy policy. You came in and said, we're going
to sell energy to our friends and allies. We're going
to bring prosperity at home through policies here by having
lower energy prices, and we're going to stop funding wars
abroad with energy policies that helped their adversaries and hurt us.

(02:22:14):
You said, we're going to sell energy to our friends
and allies. And with the work that Jamison and Howard
and Scott and everyone has done on these trade deals,
we're going to have an opportunity to have a renaissance
in American energy selling energy to the world, which is
going to help bring peace broad But the real key
thing in closing I want to say is two things.
One has to do with the US Park Police. That's

(02:22:36):
the group here in Washington, DC that are the oldest uniform,
oldest uniform law enforcement group in the nation. You coming
out and visiting with them in person before they went
out on the surge. Not only not only are carjackings down,
buggings down, homicides down, everything down, morales through the roof.
Just like Pete saw, we've got record people signing up

(02:22:59):
to one of be part of our military. You have
breathed life back into the profession of law enforcement. Your
respect for law enforcement is so incredible. It's making a difference,
and then us giving them the tools. On a wider
note for everybody here, one of the rules of under
President Trump were able to change for the US Park
Police was they could do a pursuit. I was shocked
to find out when we were talking to be like, oh,

(02:23:20):
you pull somebody over and they just drive away and
you can't pursue them, I mean like and they said no,
we can't.

Speaker 2 (02:23:25):
They said, all rules.

Speaker 4 (02:23:26):
We got that rule change in twenty four hours because
of President Trump's leadership. The next night, they had so
much fun. They pulled people over it. They started to
take off, they chased them, they stopped him. And then
the bad guys, some of these were in cars that
had stolen plates. So they take the plate off, they
steal them off somebody else's car. They know what the
plate doesn't match. They know they're doing this thing. The

(02:23:46):
bad guys in the car said, you're not supposed to
chase us, like you're breaking the rules. The bad guys
are telling us to bring them. No, but we're back
in actually, so it's like and so the morale is high.
They all wanted to say thank you to you. Yesterday
you announced increasing the number of the US park Police
that we're going to hire. This is the group that
protects not only our sacred monuments of democracy here, but

(02:24:09):
also the Statue of Liberty and the Golden Gate. This
is a great group. But on behalf of all law enforcement,
we say thank you. And Chris Wright was talking about electricity.
I want to close with that we've solved the amazing
things in seven months. But the big challenge we have
against the remaining is, I mean, solving around the nuclear thing.
That was an extential threat. China beating us in the

(02:24:32):
AI arms race, that's an ext cel threat. We finally
have a president who talks about it. You talked about
it in your opening remarks, You've signed executive orders, you
understand that. Essentially, we used to say hundreds of years ago,
people started saying that knowledge is power. But now, for
the first time in history, we can take electricity and
we can convert it into intelligence. So it's flipped. It's

(02:24:54):
no longer knowledge is power. Power is also knowledge. And
while we're ahead on the technology, way behind China on
the amount of electricity they're bringing online. And your strong
position to support affordable, reliable energy using our nation's resources,
including those across the Department of Interior, bringing back coal mining,
bringing back mining, bringing back timber. All the industries that

(02:25:17):
have been killed in this country are coming back to
life because of you, and with your leadership, we have
a chance to not only win the AI arms race,
but actually dominate it the way we're dominating another thing.

Speaker 1 (02:25:27):
So thank you, mister, Thank you very much. And we're
leading that race right now by a lot, and we're
going to keep the electricity coming. You know, in China,
they do it very quickly. They have one person that
says do it, and that's it. But essentially we have
one person that says do it, and we've given that order.
And the job they've done has been amazing. And I

(02:25:48):
want to thank again Lee what you're doing. And then
regard is so important and rapidity just as fast as them,
because it's a question of a week versus a day,
and that's not going to make the difference. But you've
done fantastically and Doug and Chris amazing joke. So we've
done this for a little while now. I don't think

(02:26:10):
you've never seen anything like it. And you know, I
think Sean was right. These guys that are holding this up.
If you ever try holding your handout for two hours,
it's a long time. This is pretty strong characters. You've
been doing that a long time. I guess congratulations. Are
you getting tired and you're getting tired. I'm looking at
these guys.

Speaker 2 (02:26:30):
They look like they have no problem, but it's amazing.

Speaker 1 (02:26:32):
Actually it's they. I think they would have beaten you
guys in the in the test. So I want to
thank you if you want, you know, it's been a
long time. If you want, if you want, we could
go in and we can call it a day and
feel free then to ask some of the questions here. Look,

(02:26:54):
I believe in very open you know, we want to
be open, above board.

Speaker 2 (02:26:58):
We want to be honest with the media.

Speaker 1 (02:27:01):
I wish the media was totally honest with us, but
I think they're getting better to be honest with you.
And so we'll see. But if you want to take
a few questions on.

Speaker 38 (02:27:09):
A serious note, when it comes to Governor Lisa Cook,
her lawyer has said that they're going to be following
a lawsuit challenging is legal action. What is your respond
and you prepared for a legal fight and.

Speaker 1 (02:27:20):
A little bit more legal Look, I had a legal
fight that went on for years with crooked people, with
very horrible people, people that have been found out now
between John Ratcliffe and Dlsea and Pam and I mean
the things that we found out. Of course, it's a
very very sad group of people. But now she seems

(02:27:42):
to have had an infraction, and she can't have an infraction,
especially that infraction because she's in charge of, if you
think about it, mortgages, and we need people that are
one hundred percent above board, and it doesn't seem like
she was. Yeh.

Speaker 6 (02:27:56):
First, I would love.

Speaker 39 (02:27:57):
To ask you a serious questions, but I have to
to tell you the biggest pop culture news of the year, Brooke.

Speaker 40 (02:28:02):
While we were in this cabinet meeting, Travis Kelsey and
Taylor Swift are engaged in the lots.

Speaker 1 (02:28:07):
Your reactions are, well, I wish him a lot of love. Yeah,
I think it's uh. I think he's a a great player.
I think he's a great guy, and I think that
she's a terrific person. So I wish them a lot
a lot.

Speaker 40 (02:28:21):
I'm serious, not mister President uh in Many Secretary of
Rubio said that they were aggressively removing UH pieces of
Chinese students necessdays, you said you wanted to allow UH
six hundred thousand Chinese students to study in the United States.
Could you and the secretary to clarify what is the
policy on Chinese students in the United States.

Speaker 1 (02:28:40):
Well, we think we're you know, look, we're getting along
very well with China UH and I'm getting along very
well with President she. I think it's very insulting to say, yes,
students can't come here, because they'll go out and they'll
start building schools and they'll be able to survive it.
But I like that the students come here. I like
that other three students come here. And you know what

(02:29:02):
would happen if they didn't, our college system would go
to hell very quickly. You'd have and it wouldn't be
the top colleges. It would be colleges that struggle on
the bottom. And you take out three hundred thousand or
six hundred thousand students out of the system. I like
having and I told this the presidency that we're honored
to have their students here. Now with that, we check

(02:29:24):
and we're careful and we see who's there, and Marco
wants that we spoke. We're in the same position. But
we have a tremendous college system, the best in the world,
nobody even to us. That's why China sends them here.
And you can call it an industry if you want,
but you're taking about millions of people. And I'm honored
to have the students from China come here. And we're

(02:29:48):
just getting along very well with China. And it's a
different relationship than we had for years where they took
hundreds of millions of dollars just sucked it right out
of our country. They respect this. Again, I respect them.
The relationship is very good. I think it's important that
these are two very major powers, nuclear powers at that,

(02:30:08):
but two very important powers. You know, when I get
along with Putin, when I get along with President she,
when I get along with these people, that's a good thing,
not a bad thing. We're tough, and we're smart, and
we're strong. We get along.

Speaker 2 (02:30:21):
It's a lot better than not getting along.

Speaker 1 (02:30:23):
You had somebody in here before the warship had never
started with Ukraine and Russia, it would have never started.
And Putin said that himself. President Putin said that himself.
So we want to see college students come in from countries.
There are some countries well that we we can't necessarily
say that. These are places that have ideologies that we

(02:30:44):
can't live with. So there are some areas some countries
that we can't say that, but we're honored to have
the students come here. Please.

Speaker 7 (02:30:53):
Yesterday you said that within two to three weeks we
have about conclusive, pretty good conclusive and right, what did
you mean by that?

Speaker 12 (02:31:02):
And could you tell on what in the war in Gaza?

Speaker 2 (02:31:05):
Yeah, what about it?

Speaker 6 (02:31:06):
You said in two to three weeks we would have
a conclusive.

Speaker 2 (02:31:09):
And uh, there's no conclusive. It's been going on for
a long time.

Speaker 1 (02:31:14):
You're talking about I guess if you really added up, Steve,
you're talking about thousands of years. Okay, it's been going
on for There's nothing conclusive, but hopefully we're gonna have
things solved very quickly with regard to Gaza and also
with regard to Ukraine.

Speaker 2 (02:31:28):
And Russia.

Speaker 21 (02:31:33):
For the replacement to nominate for Lisa Cook and what
economic background your history are you?

Speaker 1 (02:31:37):
Well, we have some very good people for that position,
and I think we have some very good people were
down to. I mean, I think I maybe in my
own mind have somebody that I like. But I deal
with Scott and I deal with Howard, and we're dealing
with a lot of people actually that are gonna be
involved in that decision. Ultimate it's a very important decision,
as we see. I mean, I got a bad recommendation

(02:32:00):
I want with Jerome too late, you know, he's too late,
his nickname is too late, costing us a lot of money,
hurting the housing. I mean, our housing industry is good,
but it could be phenomenal. Most most of this country,
in terms of economic terms, has been phenomenal. We've never
seen anything like it. Because of him and his high

(02:32:22):
interest rates, the housing is less than it could be.
We're going to get that straightened out very quickly. He
gets out very quickly. Fortunately, he's been the wrong guy.
Not a bad person, I don't think, but you know,
I do think he has motives, by the way, but
I don't consider him. I've dealt with worse. But he
hasn't done the job. The recommendation from a certain person

(02:32:44):
was not a great recommendation. That person vouched for him.
But we're doing a very careful study. We'll see what happens. Look,
we just put a very good man in one position.
We might switch him to the other it's alone good
term and pick somebody else. But we're very happy with
the person we have in there. And we'll have a

(02:33:05):
majority very shortly, so that'll be great. Once we have
a majority, housing is gonna swing and it's gonna be great.
People are paying too high an interest rate. That's the
only problem with housing. We have to get the rates
down a little bit, and when we do, it's gonna
be a tremendous difference the country the country. The country
is doing so well, it's sort of uh, it sort

(02:33:28):
of blows through the fact that we have a man
who's too late and not doing a very good job.

Speaker 20 (02:33:33):
Please blore crime in DC.

Speaker 9 (02:33:35):
Something that might help, especially ladies, is being able to carry.

Speaker 20 (02:33:38):
I know you've talked about reciprocal carry.

Speaker 6 (02:33:40):
Would you like for that to apply.

Speaker 9 (02:33:42):
Here in Washington DUS?

Speaker 1 (02:33:43):
When you say carry, I assume you're talking about carry
what we're talking in other words, carry a gun?

Speaker 32 (02:33:50):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (02:33:50):
Would you like to carry a gun?

Speaker 12 (02:33:51):
I would like to, Yes, sir, you feel a.

Speaker 1 (02:33:53):
Hell of a lot better, right, I absolutely I agree
with you, one hundred percent.

Speaker 2 (02:33:57):
Great, But I'll tell you within another couple of weeks.

Speaker 1 (02:34:02):
It's hard to believe what's been accomplished in twelve days,
but within another couple of weeks, you won't have to carry.
You're not gonna have to carry. You're gonna be safe.
People are safe now. The turn has gone fast. I
knew it was gonna go fast, but this turn has
gone really fast. And within a month or two, this
is gonna be one of the safest places in the country.

(02:34:23):
I have no doubt about it. And we'll do an extension.
We'll work with Congress, or I could declare an emergency,
but I don't think that's gonna be necessary.

Speaker 2 (02:34:32):
We'll work with Congress.

Speaker 1 (02:34:33):
We're gonna be working with Congress. I spoke with our
great speaker, and I will be speaking to John Thune.
And we're getting tremendous support from Congress, especially maybe here.
Everybody wants to see our capital be great. You say,
be great again. You know it's such a beautiful place,
but if you have crime, nothing looks beautiful. So but

(02:34:56):
you won't need to carry a gun, but if you
do to be a well.

Speaker 2 (02:35:02):
A lot of people feel that.

Speaker 6 (02:35:03):
Also in other Blue cities.

Speaker 38 (02:35:04):
You've got Karen Bass in Los Angeles, Brandon Johnson in Chicago.

Speaker 9 (02:35:08):
It seems to be very popular here, the fact that
people can.

Speaker 6 (02:35:11):
Walk around, go to restaurants, shop and don't have.

Speaker 9 (02:35:14):
To worry about their safety.

Speaker 38 (02:35:15):
If Blue city mayors oppose those efforts in their cities,
do you anticipate the Democrat voters are going to.

Speaker 1 (02:35:21):
Take it all on them at the I think so.
I think that crime is going to be a big thing,
and we are the party, the Republicans of the party
that wants to stop crime. We're against crime. The Democrats
like crime. I don't know why I mean we talk
about common sense. I think I got elected on talking
about common sense.

Speaker 2 (02:35:41):
The border.

Speaker 1 (02:35:42):
We have to have a wall.

Speaker 3 (02:35:43):
We have.

Speaker 2 (02:35:43):
We don't want transgender for everybody.

Speaker 1 (02:35:46):
We don't, as I said before, we don't want to
have men playing in women's sports. I mean you see
the difference weightlifting. Take a look at weightlifting.

Speaker 2 (02:35:54):
Take a look at.

Speaker 1 (02:35:55):
Long distance running where a runner came in five hours
and fourteen minutes ahead of another run of both champions,
one male one. It's not fair. It's the meaning to women,
it's so bad. But they have another one, and I
think this is the beauty of them all.

Speaker 2 (02:36:10):
Crime. They're against crime prevention. You can't do that.

Speaker 1 (02:36:16):
You can't do that. And it's I think to myself,
I say, is there some game you know there?

Speaker 2 (02:36:24):
Smart people?

Speaker 1 (02:36:26):
Is there anybody that can cheat like that in elections
as smart?

Speaker 29 (02:36:29):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (02:36:29):
And there's never been in history anybody that could cheat
like that.

Speaker 1 (02:36:32):
They're smart, they're brilliant in many ways. I say, is
there some trick to this? When they say Trump is
in Washington, d C. Stop being crime. He's a dictator
and people are being mugged like you're brilliant associated here.
I don't know how you're alive. I mean, based on
that story, you're very lucky. He didn't just go all he.

Speaker 29 (02:36:54):
Had to do?

Speaker 1 (02:36:55):
Is this right?

Speaker 2 (02:36:56):
And you know it's pretty amazing.

Speaker 11 (02:36:58):
So so.

Speaker 2 (02:37:01):
We have something. I think we have two things.

Speaker 1 (02:37:03):
I think what Bobby was talking about with respect to
drug prices is unbeatable. Nobody else could have done about us.
And I think that crime. I think crime will be
the big subject of the midterms and will be the
big subject of the next selection.

Speaker 24 (02:37:23):
Think of it.

Speaker 1 (02:37:24):
They are instead of saying Trump's right about crime, it's
really bad in Chicago, you have a guy in Illinois,
the governor of Illinois, saying that crime has been much
better in Chicago recently. And Trump is a dictator, and
most people say, if you call him a dictator, that
if he stops crime, he can be whatever he wants.

(02:37:46):
I'm not a dictator, by the way, but he can
be whatever he wants. I think it's going to be
a big, a big, big subject for the midterms, and
I think the Republicans.

Speaker 2 (02:37:55):
Are going to do really well.

Speaker 1 (02:37:57):
They are. They called it a trap, this Democrat consultant.
They said he's put him in a trap again, because
these are all traps. You know eighty twenty, but they're
not eighty twenty then almost one hundred to nothing. All
these issues. But I would say that crime is stronger
than men playing in women's sports. I think it's stronger
than transgender for everybody, and it's transgender for everybody. According

(02:38:20):
to them, it's stronger, of course, it's this is the
cause of it. Open borders. Open borders gave us a
lot of this crime, so you know, so they're sort
of an unequal footing, I guess. But crime is going
to be a very big subject. And you know what
he should do if he was smart Illinois or New York,
if they want, or Gavin newskumb they should call me

(02:38:43):
and they should say, you know, we've got a problem.
You know we could solve with this team, different players,
but work the same way, because you'd leave them here.
You don't want to take them out and let it
go to hell. Everybody's so happy in what I bet
you walked over here today and you have no fear.
Nobody has any fear anymore for less twelve days. But

(02:39:04):
what if they it would be so smart. Gavin has
called me up to say, you know what, we have
a big problem. We have the Olympics coming up. We
want to do well. We have tremendous problems on crime
and other things and would love some help. Chicago in particular,
maybe right now. I mean it's a disaster. It's a disaster.

(02:39:27):
We could solve their problem, and it's bigger than this.
Let's say two months, okay, working with their police.

Speaker 2 (02:39:33):
I know their police very well.

Speaker 1 (02:39:34):
I have a big project in Chicago I built. I
was so proud of it. It's the best site in Chicago.
I got it, nobody else got it. I was happy
as that was when I was a real estate guy
and I got it. The Suntime site they call it.
And I built a building. It's a great building. And
I'm so embarrassed when I see the kind of crime
stats coming out. They're so so embarrassed. And if I

(02:39:57):
were a governor Democrat, ovenor or mayor or anybody having
to do I'd call up President Trump. I'd say, President Trump,
we need your help. We saw what you've done in
DC in a period of twelve days. This is twelve days.
We haven't even started. This is going to be so safe.
It'll be the safest place on earth. And we'll do

(02:40:19):
the same thing in Chicago. But I'd like to be
asked as opposed to just going in and doing it,
because you know, when you go in and do it,
then they start scream, Oh, he shouldn't be here, we
don't need him, we're doing so well, and then the
better we do, they take credit for it.

Speaker 2 (02:40:32):
So it's really pretty unfair.

Speaker 6 (02:40:35):
Crime for a lot of victims like myself.

Speaker 20 (02:40:37):
A big concern is law for sustainability here. Share more
with the American public about your plan and ensuring that.

Speaker 1 (02:40:43):
DC is saving a long longer term. Well, it's a
great question. Number one, we want to stay there for
longer than thirty days. As you know, we have an
absolute mandate and I can extend it, but I'd rather
not have to declare a national emergency because by that time,
I mean, right now, there's.

Speaker 2 (02:41:00):
Not an emergency.

Speaker 1 (02:41:01):
We've done. As you sort of said yourself, it feels
like a different world. We've got under arrest and prosecution,
and we've thrown out, taken some and in the process
of taking hundreds out of our country that shouldn't be here.
And these are hardcore professional criminals. They were born to

(02:41:21):
be criminals, in my opinion, but they're seriously bad people. Murderers,
drug dealers. You know them all and you see them
all as you walk beautifully to work, and every once
in a while somebody puts a gun to your head
because that's what happened in your case. We're getting a
lot of them out of the country. We're putting a
lot of them in prison because we're afraid to bring
them out of the country. They could come back, you know,

(02:41:41):
as good as we're doing, they could come back. We
don't want them back, and that's going to solve a
lot of it. We also think there should be a
presence here for long enough. We should also work with
our police department, because you have very good police here,
very good. We're working very well with them, by the way,
and we have to work together for a while. We
have some people that are very tough and very strong

(02:42:04):
working with the police. They're going to be able to
handle it. And you know what, if it gets a
little bit bad, a little bit, just a little bit,
I'll bring them back in and we'll straighten it out
and we'll make it perfect. You're going to be so
safe in the city and you're gonna have the city beautified.
We're gonna be giving out, We're working with Clark, as
you know construction, they're the biggest. They're working with me. Also,
we're building a beautiful ballroom for the White House. They've

(02:42:26):
been after it for one hundred and fifty years, employs
a lot of people. It's going to be as beautiful
a ballroom as has ever been built. And Clark is
the big builder in this city. They've done, I guess,
the majority of the good work, the big work. And
we're working with them on the beautification, the fixing up

(02:42:46):
the roads, the fixing up of the medians between the
roads so cars don't wrap into each other, they wrap
into I have one piece sitting on the ground for weeks.
This was a year ago when I had a come
in unfortunately for fake court cases, and I looked at
the condition that we have it fixed up a lot
right now. You know, the tens are removed and a

(02:43:08):
lot of things have taken place. But I'd come into
this city and I say, boy, does it look bad?
The filth on the roads, the medians were broken and
always laying down and nobody.

Speaker 2 (02:43:19):
Would fix him and all of that.

Speaker 1 (02:43:22):
Well, we're gonna have new medians. We're gonna have a
nice topping put on the road. We're not gonna rip
the roads apart and start a construction project the last
for two and a half years as they rebuild a road,
which they don't have to do. And we're gonna have
this place so beautiful. That's gonna be a part of it.

Speaker 11 (02:43:36):
Now.

Speaker 1 (02:43:37):
The biggest part is crime, but it's also a part.
You know, when you see a dirty city. It's like
I told I, don't know, it became the number one
thing viral. I said, My father's a smart guy's a
great guy's a loving, wonderful father, but he could be
a little on the tough side. He told me that Sun,
when you walk into a restaurant you see a dirty,
filthy door going into the restaurant, don't go there because

(02:44:00):
the kitchen dirty. Also when they see a dirty capital,
the rest of the world, they lose a lot of
respect for our country.

Speaker 2 (02:44:08):
This capital is gonna be so beautiful.

Speaker 1 (02:44:10):
We're gonna have new poles, new lights, new fences, stuff
that when you add it up, it's money, but it's
peanuts compared to what we're talking about. And we're also
gonna have great safety.

Speaker 20 (02:44:21):
I want to ask you on crime and.

Speaker 39 (02:44:24):
Also a question for policy that maybe other officials can.

Speaker 6 (02:44:27):
Wait to and on crime Irish shared birth story.

Speaker 40 (02:44:31):
And you mentioned.

Speaker 1 (02:44:35):
Those a terrible story because I'm just amazed she's here.
When when the gun is Pam, when the gun is
put to the hand, did they ever capture these people?

Speaker 6 (02:44:42):
By the way, I kept calling.

Speaker 1 (02:44:45):
This guy, it would be really great if you could
maybe give the information. She's very good at capturing people.
You know, she's very good. If you could give that
information to PAM, would be great.

Speaker 2 (02:44:57):
Would you do that?

Speaker 14 (02:44:58):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (02:44:59):
Wouldn't you'd love this? See them?

Speaker 2 (02:45:00):
I would assume you'd like to see them.

Speaker 1 (02:45:02):
You can't, you just can't. Yeah, take a good look
at them. Go ahead, so go aheads ago.

Speaker 39 (02:45:08):
I was off to dinner with my husband, and you know,
we're taking the Mutro back and then we can talk.

Speaker 6 (02:45:13):
In the mutro they're throwing bangs, some.

Speaker 1 (02:45:15):
Teenagers throwing Oh, they're throwing things.

Speaker 24 (02:45:18):
They throw.

Speaker 1 (02:45:19):
How about where they chop down the granite curbs and
the concrete curbs. But the granite curbs so expensive. You
know those granite curbs. Nobody uses them because they're so expensive.
And you see a guy shopping them and handing out
big chunks of them like a brick. Because they couldn't
get in because people were stopping them from walking out.
A little bit unusual when you walk up with a

(02:45:40):
bag of bricks, generally speaking Sewan, that's not a good sign.
It's not a good sign. But they now come in
with hammers. They can disguise a hammer, and they start
pounding the concrete and the granite, and they hand out chunks,
and those people take those chunks and start throwing the cops.
Or they stand on the top of bridges and they
drop them down into the windshield of your car and

(02:46:00):
you get killed running into a light pole.

Speaker 2 (02:46:03):
It's it's those days are over.

Speaker 39 (02:46:07):
I wanted to ask you, Governor Local cothyvcal Sad that
she spoke to you on the phone and you said
you might send National Guard troops.

Speaker 3 (02:46:14):
To New York.

Speaker 6 (02:46:15):
You mentioned that, so will you.

Speaker 1 (02:46:17):
I'd love to do it. If she'd like, I get
along with Kathy. If she'd like to do that, I
would do it. See New York is difficulty, like the
and I don't want to make this bike. I want
to make this like friendly. But the places we're talking
about happened to be virtually all Democrat run. Now take

(02:46:38):
a look at you twenty five places that are most
troubled everyone except maybe one, and it's way back in
number twenty four or twenty five, but essentially twenty five
out of twenty five are run by Democrats. And cashless
bail was a disaster when they did that, and I
believe it was instituted first to New York. But when

(02:46:58):
they did cashless bail, well, that was a tragedy for
this because that's when it really started. It really started
getting bad. When somebody kills somebody, you don't say you
can come out. You don't have to put up anything.
You put that person in jail and you find out
whether or not it's true. But you don't give cashless
bail with a promise to come back in a couple

(02:47:20):
of months. We'll start talking to you because they go
out and they kill other people and you can't do that.
The cashless bail has been you know, it's just a
woke thing. It's got to stop. You see that, CHRISTI
better than anybody. It's got to stop. It causes unbelievable
and we're doing that. We're stopping it in DC. I
would love to have the governor of Illinois call me

(02:47:43):
and say, look, we have a problem in Chicago. We
will stop that problem in Chicago in two months, maybe
less two months, we'll stop it. These are tough cookies
we have working for us. These are tough cookies. These
are not politically correct soldiers that I won't go to
definitions of what that means. But these are not politically

(02:48:03):
correct soldiers.

Speaker 2 (02:48:04):
These are rough guys. I watched it last night.

Speaker 1 (02:48:06):
I see it. I saw them the other day when
we went down and we spend some time together with them.

Speaker 2 (02:48:11):
These are tough cookies.

Speaker 1 (02:48:12):
These are not people that you're going to laugh at
and spit in their face and they're not going to
do anything about it. And these people they're afraid, these
gang members who are bad people too. These are bad.
These are just bad people. Ours are bad, but they're
bad in a good sense. Right, you don't understand that, Scott,
and we can solve Chicago in two months now. Then,

(02:48:35):
as for your statement before, we have to keep it going,
and we'll be able to keep it going. The first
thing you have to do is get it down. We
are very close to being in that position in DC,
and within a month we will be within a month
from when we started, which is quicker than I thought
we're going to have you're going to feel very very safe.
I think you feel very safe right now. But I

(02:48:57):
would love it to have these governors mayors call me
and say, we'd like to invite you into our community
because we have a problem and you can handle the
problem and we can't. One other thing. Sanctuary cities, they
should be terminated. They're sanctuary for criminals. There's safety and
security for criminals. They are very very bad, and all

(02:49:20):
of these places have big sanctuary cities and all they're
doing is protecting criminals.

Speaker 6 (02:49:29):
You have spoken out very.

Speaker 38 (02:49:30):
Strongly for a long time by what you see as
the weaponization of government.

Speaker 20 (02:49:34):
Is your administration.

Speaker 38 (02:49:35):
Weaponizing government by digging into the mortgage records?

Speaker 1 (02:49:41):
No, they're public. I mean you can find out those records.
You can go check out the records yourself. And you
should be doing that job. Actually, you wouldn't do that
because that's not the kind of reporter you are. But
you should be doing that job. I shouldn't have to
be doing it. If you did your job properly, we
wouldn't have problems. Like Lisa, go ahead, you're gonna say something.

Speaker 2 (02:50:04):
I think we have to have lower interest.

Speaker 8 (02:50:06):
It's an old question for you and out' tury General
and National Security will pert from.

Speaker 6 (02:50:12):
Criminals here in DC who are actually about to be
doing business which criminal.

Speaker 1 (02:50:18):
Of hotels, that's right, And we know who they are
and we know who they're doing business with, and we're
arresting the people, very strongly arresting and we're keeping them
there because you know, your laws here make it very difficult.
And one of the other laws we're trying to get
done because you have fourteen year old kids that are
just as tough as a twenty five year old kid,

(02:50:40):
just as dangerous, and they carry the same gun, and
we have to make a provision where they're treated like
older people because these are seriously tough, bad their children,
but they're criminals, and they're really bad criminals, and they're
used by older people because they never get charged because
as you can't do anything to him. But we are

(02:51:03):
getting that change. Paym my hope, because you have fourteen
year old kids that are evil, they're sick, and they
have to be put away there. Something has to be
done because you can't have a society where they're allowed
to walk the street.

Speaker 2 (02:51:14):
You know that better than any.

Speaker 1 (02:51:18):
I can't believe you're not tired holding that How strong
are you? How strong are you?

Speaker 12 (02:51:23):
Look at him?

Speaker 1 (02:51:24):
He's been holding that thing for three hours.

Speaker 2 (02:51:26):
You're good fisherman.

Speaker 16 (02:51:30):
Why it will last?

Speaker 4 (02:51:31):
Bit? You had mentioned that your consequences of Vladimer Pot
did not agree to a seat.

Speaker 16 (02:51:35):
After that summit that was rolled back in the negotiations.

Speaker 4 (02:51:39):
Is he back on the clock town?

Speaker 1 (02:51:43):
I want to see that deal end. It's very very
serious what I have in mind if I have to
do it, but I want to see it end. I
think that in many ways he's there. Sometimes he'll be
there and Zelensky.

Speaker 2 (02:51:58):
Won't be there.

Speaker 1 (02:51:59):
You know who do we have today? I got to
get them both at the same time. But I want
to have an end.

Speaker 2 (02:52:06):
We have economic sanctions.

Speaker 1 (02:52:08):
I'm talking about economic because we're not gonna get into
a world war. I'll tell you what, in my opinion,
if I didn't win this race, Ukraine could have ended
up in a World war. We're not gonna end up
in a world war anymore, but it would have ended
up possibly in a world war.

Speaker 2 (02:52:26):
That would have been That would have been a they
were ready to trot.

Speaker 1 (02:52:30):
But just like India and Pakistan, we're gonna end up
in a nuclear war if I didn't stop. I mean,
it was sort of strange. I saw they were fighting.
Then I saw seven jets were shot down. I said,
that's not good. That's a lot of jets. You know,
one hundred and fifty million dollar planes were shot down,
a lot of them. Seven maybe more than that. They

(02:52:51):
didn't even report the real number. I'm talking to a
very terrific man of India and I said, what's going
on with you in Pakistan? Then I'm talking to Pakistan
on trade? I said, what's going on with you in India?
And the hatred was tremendous. Now, this has been going

(02:53:13):
on for a hell of a long time, like with
sometimes with different names, for hundreds of years. But I said,
what's going on? I said, I don't want to make
a trade deal. No, no, no, we want to make
a trade deal. I said, no, no, I don't want
to make a trade deal with you. You're gonna have
a nuclear war. You guys are gonna end up.

Speaker 2 (02:53:31):
In a nuclear war.

Speaker 1 (02:53:33):
And that was very important to them. I said, call
me back tomorrow, but we're not going to do any
deals with you, or we're going to put tariffs on
you that are so high you were there. Howard right,
you're going to put tariffs on you that was so high.
I don't give a damn. Your head's gonna spare it.
You're not going to end up in a war.

Speaker 2 (02:53:51):
Within about.

Speaker 1 (02:53:53):
Five hours, it was done.

Speaker 24 (02:53:55):
It was done.

Speaker 2 (02:53:56):
Now maybe it starts again.

Speaker 12 (02:53:57):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:53:57):
I don't think so, but I'll stop it if it does.
We can't let these things happen. The Russia Ukraine situation.
Last week, seven thousand and twelve soldiers. Twelve soldiers.

Speaker 2 (02:54:17):
Died.

Speaker 1 (02:54:18):
They were Russian, they were Ukrainian. They weren't American. So
a lot of people would say, what do you care,
they're not American. I care they're twelve thousand. Over the
last couple of weeks, over twelve thousand people died in
the like in two weeks. You know, we're talking about
crime where somebody's killed here or somebody. Think of it.
You have your son leaving Russia, leaving Ukraine, their little

(02:54:40):
house wherever they live with their parents. They're waving goodbye,
just like our parents would wave goodbye, and they're waving
good goodbye son. And then a week later his head's
blown off in a stupid war by a drone a
whole new form of military problem. So no, I'd like
it to stop. I want to get it to style,
and it will not be a world war, but it

(02:55:02):
will be an economic war. And an economic war is
going to be bad, and it's going to be bad
for Russia, and I don't want that. Now. I have
to also see because not everybody, you know, Zolensky is
not exactly innocent either. Okay, you know it takes two
people to tango, and I say it all the time.
You got to get them together. I get along with
Zolensky now, but we have a much different relationship because

(02:55:27):
now we're not paying any money to Ukraine, you know,
stop there, We're paying money to ourselves. What's happening is
NATO is buying all of the equipment and paying in full.
But even with that, forget about that. I want to
get it stopped because it's a lot of lives that
are being lost every week. It's seven thousand and five,

(02:55:48):
thousand and six times. I get the reports and I
see battlefields. I'd rather not see them. And you know,
you read about you read about Gettysburg. You read about Gettysburg,
and you see, you know those styles and six hundred
thousand people, but in that war in particular, it has
really been like one hundred and fifty thousand or something,
just dead body. I'm seeing the same. I see pictures,

(02:56:11):
I see satellite pictures of heads over here, arms over here,
legs over here.

Speaker 2 (02:56:19):
And this is like a modern age. It's no different
than the worst wars that I've ever seen.

Speaker 1 (02:56:26):
And if I can stop it because I have a
certain power or a certain relationship. I had a very
good relationship with President Putin, very very good. That's a
positive thing again, And I think I'm probably the only
Steve Whitcoff will tell you I'm the only one that
can solve it.

Speaker 12 (02:56:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:56:42):
You just told me that a few times, unless you're
saying that just to build up my ego, but it's
not really. I have no ego when it comes to
this stuff. I just want to see itself. Thousands of
young people, mostly young people, are dying every single week.
If I can save that by doing sanctions, or or
by just being me, or by using a very strong

(02:57:04):
tariff system that's very coarsely to Russia or Ukraine or
whoever we have. You know, but I stopped seven wars
and three of those wars were going on for more
than thirty years. You know, if you look at Congo,
if you look at just look at any of them,
almost all of them were going on for an extended
period of time. Now, interestingly, one had just started. It

(02:57:28):
was two days old. And you know that one, And
we did that one when we were in Scotland negotiating.
It was two days, but there were two thousand dead
bodies laying on the border. And I got that one
stopped too, and I'm very honored by that. But I
still the one that I thought would be the easiest
is turning out to be the hardest. That's President Putin
and President Zelensky. But I think I'll get it done.

(02:57:53):
You never know, it's war. With war, you never know. Right,
War's very trick, very horrible, But with war, you never know.
Things change. If people go into war think they're gonna
win the war, and then they get their asses kicked
and they lose their country and they lose millions of lives.
Nobody goes into a war thinking they're gonna lose. They

(02:58:14):
go in. I'm sure that Ukraine thought they were gonna win.
Is gonna be you know, we're gonna win. You're gonna
beat somebody that's fifteen times your size. Biden shouldn't have
let that happen. Biden shouldn't. I mean, the man was
grossly incompetent. He should have never been there. That would
have never happened. But you don't go into a war
that's fifteen times your size.

Speaker 41 (02:58:37):
Statement saying that Lisa Cook has indicated to a personal
torm attorney that she'll probably challenge to actually court seek
a judicial decision that would confirm her ability to continue.

Speaker 2 (02:58:50):
That's alright, whatever it is, court, Thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (02:58:53):
Sure by a court? DEI uh, I abide by the court. Yeah,
I abide by Yes, that's enough.

Speaker 2 (02:59:00):
That's enough.

Speaker 40 (02:59:02):
Other companies or what other companies are thinking about taking
a steak.

Speaker 1 (02:59:06):
In Well, you know, we didn't take a steak in
the sense that it was reported. Everyone said I bought
a stake in Intel. No, I got it for free.
I said I was with the Zach correct statement. Howard
was there, absolutely correct. Scott knew all about it. They
came in and man was charged with something by a
very good person. Senator Cotton made some statements about the

(02:59:28):
gentleman that was running Intel when he came in and
I said some rough things about him. I said, I'm
not happy with it, and they called and he was
very devastated at what I said. I said he should
immediately resign. And he came to see me, and I
was very impressed by him. Actually, and.

Speaker 2 (02:59:49):
He made a mistake or things.

Speaker 1 (02:59:51):
Factors happened where something like this could have taken place.
In the meantime, his board was staying by him, and
I said to him, and took about I would say
less than forty five seconds. I said, you know what
you should do, if you're smart, give the United States
of America ten percent of your company. And he looked
at me and he said, I'll do that. I said,

(03:00:15):
I just made eleven billion dollars for the United States,
and we made the deal I took. I didn't pay,
we didn't write a check. Now, I guess Biden with
a stupid chipsacked handed money to all these people that
didn't need any money. It didn't do anything. You know,
the chi they're giving billions of dollars everybody. They all

(03:00:37):
have so much money, and I have more money, but
there's no commitment that you had to build. They just
took all this money. I know, it's the stupidest thing
I've ever seen. See with tariffs. They have to come
in because if they don't come in, they can't sell
into our country. So it's power and you don't have
to give up any money. But I said to him
very simply, I mean, I'm glad we're straightening this out
because everyone thinks I bought in. No. I said it

(03:00:59):
would be great. We'd be a great partner for you,
and I want to see Intel do well. You know,
Intel was a great company and it can be a
great company again. But I said, I think it would
be good if we own ten percent of a company.
He said, I'll make that deal, and it happens to
be worth eleven billion dollars. So we made eleven billion

(03:01:19):
for the country. And then I was criticized by some
of the fake news media. That's not the American way. Actually,
it is the American way. Now, if I can help
other countries or do those deals with it, I would
do that. I think it's great. She's good, builds up
our balance sheet. Let me tell you, our country is
becoming very rich again. You don't see it when the
CBO came out on Friday and said we just found eleven.

(03:01:45):
We just found four trillion dollars and that goes to
reduce our deficit four trillion, and it was from the tariffs.
Our country is becoming very, very rich again. I hope
you get used to it. You're gonna have to get used.

Speaker 6 (03:02:03):
The deficit.

Speaker 8 (03:02:03):
Oh, any update on your previous talking about potentially giving
Americans a care of broobay check.

Speaker 1 (03:02:10):
Well, we we have a lot of money coming in
rebate check for the Americans, and it's coming in at
tremendous numbers. Don't forget, I would say, Scott, we probably
are talking about right now fifty percent, maybe even less
than that. With all the money you're hearing is coming in,
you're talking about you know, a lot of it hasn't

(03:02:31):
kicked in yet. And what it really kicks in is
in two years when these plants are built and opened
and the money starts pouring in. Right But uh, I mean,
there's a concept of making a you could call it
a dividend, as we would say, making a dividend to
the people in this country who have had to suffer
through stupid leadership and they paid a lot of taxes

(03:02:53):
and they got nothing for it, or they got attacked
like you were okay for it. Uh, Now there's a
there's a possibility. Primarily we want to pay down debt,
but there's a possibility that we take a piece of
it and paste him make a dividend to.

Speaker 39 (03:03:09):
I have a question for Steve, if I may, yeah
this just this past weekend, Sergei Lavrov was saying that
Putman will not sign a peace deal with cause Russia
used him as legitimate. Just wondering if the Russians has
been relaying this to your team, if they've used Lenski,
you know, as a leader worth signing a peace deal with,

(03:03:31):
if they will.

Speaker 1 (03:03:31):
Do Steve's good answer, but I could answer to it
doesn't matter what they say. Everybody's posturing. It's all bullshit. Okay,
everybody's posturing. Steve, you have a different answer.

Speaker 29 (03:03:41):
I agree with you, sir.

Speaker 12 (03:03:49):
There are five hundred people short of the police.

Speaker 16 (03:03:51):
For police in New York.

Speaker 42 (03:03:53):
City's street thou in Chicago's thirteen hundred? Would they have
had to bring in troops from the nationalgarchy? The police
departments in this country were pullice staffed, defund the police.

Speaker 2 (03:04:04):
How bad that you're out of America.

Speaker 1 (03:04:06):
It's an interesting question. I found I was surprised when
I heard how many police were here. It's not a
really big area, and I think they said down to
three two hundred police or something like that. I said,
it's a lot of police, and I was a little
bit surprised because to me, that's a big force and
it's not a big area. But it is what it is.

(03:04:28):
There's a lot of crime. You have a lot of
don't forget. You have a lot of police that weren't
allowed to do this job when I came in. As
you remember, we made tremendous strides and a little conflict
that we had going at the time because I allowed
our military to make the decision. I said, you can
make any decision you want. I gave it to the

(03:04:50):
colonels in the field. I gave it to the captains
in the field. You remember that where everything went through Biden,
meaning one of the people, and everything went through Obama
before him, everything went through they had to make the
decision as to whether or not to attack the Taliban.
So they'd find thirty people together, they'd call up Washington,

(03:05:15):
and they'd go to a political hack who knew nothing
about it. My first night, I got that same call,
like they called me and they said, we have a
few I get a call three o'clock in the morning
because I listened to the system and they were calling
me and they were asking me whether or not they
could attack a group of people having to do with
you know what war I'm talking about? And I said,

(03:05:39):
I know nothing about this. Wait a minute, and then
I said, who is he? Let me speak to the
people calling. They're calling from Afghanistan and I said, let
me speak to the people. I want to speak to them.
And it was a colonel. I said, where do you
go to school? Colonel? I went to West Points? Sir?
Were you a good suit? And I was, so, you're

(03:05:59):
calling the White House to ask for permission to attack
and by the time you get the answer, how long is?
It takes sometimes two or three weeks. So by the
time you get the answer, the people that you want
to attack.

Speaker 2 (03:06:09):
Have already left.

Speaker 20 (03:06:09):
Right.

Speaker 1 (03:06:10):
He said, how did you know that?

Speaker 39 (03:06:11):
Sir?

Speaker 1 (03:06:12):
I said, let me ask you. Say, you're a good student,
you went to West Point, and you love the military. Right,
you make the decision. And I gave all those guys
that went to all these great schools and they're all
military people. I gave them the right to make their
own decision, and we kicked Isis's ass. Don't forget Isis

(03:06:33):
was supposed to be who's supposed to take five years
to terminate him? And we had a man named Raisin
Kine who happens to have done the whole thing in Iran.
It's great general and he's a wonderful guy. To believe
it or not, but he's a great soldier. We let
them do their work and we defeated Isis. We defeated everybody, everybody.

(03:06:58):
Every fight that we had militarily that I had, I won,
and I let these great soldiers do do. Some make
a mistake, I guess, but like this colonel, I'll never
forget it. When did you go to school? I went
to West Points, Sir. I did ask him a question.
I like good students as opposed to be answered. He
said I was a good student, sir, and I said,

(03:07:19):
you do what's necessary. And you know, I don't want
to sound overly vicious, but he wiped out the entire
group of very bad people that want to kill us.
So you have to let them do their job. In Washington,
they're not allowed to.

Speaker 2 (03:07:32):
Do their job.

Speaker 1 (03:07:32):
Okay, they're not allowed you have great police. You have
great police, but.

Speaker 2 (03:07:37):
They're not allowed.

Speaker 1 (03:07:39):
Hello, go ahead, I'm congress President.

Speaker 6 (03:07:42):
Would you be olden to your law continuing resolution.

Speaker 1 (03:07:49):
I'm always open to whatever is necessary. Here's the problem
in Congress. You have Democrats that will never vote for anything.
I could say that we're going to lower you taxes
by fifty percent. We're going to guarantee you free cities,
safe cities, nobody will ever get touched, molested, beat up,
shot in the head. We're going to give you the

(03:08:11):
greatest country ever. We need you vote, and they won't vote.
And they do it in Unison. The only thing they
do good is cheat on elections and unite. You know
why they unite, not because they're good or they're loyal people.
They unite because they're afraid. They're afraid of the radical left,

(03:08:32):
and you can't get their vote. So we have a
vote coming up at the end of September, and I
think we're going to pass it because we have the majority,
and I think almost every Republican will vote for an extension.
Because no matter what deal you make with these people.

Speaker 2 (03:08:48):
Look at Schumer.

Speaker 1 (03:08:50):
He made a deal a year and a half ago,
and after making the deal, he's been almost run out
of the party. He's not the same man. He's not
the same man. He's finished. He aged twenty years. He's
become a Palestinian. By the way, we call him my
great Palestinian senator. But Chuck Schumer and I wrote him
a letter. I said, Chuck, that was really great, thank

(03:09:11):
you very much. And somebody gave the letter to the press,
not me, and he was destroyed because they thought I
was being sarcastic, and I wasn't.

Speaker 2 (03:09:18):
He made a great decision. It kept our country open.

Speaker 1 (03:09:23):
It was a positive. But you can count on almost
no vote. I mean, I see things.

Speaker 2 (03:09:28):
I'll give you an example. Crime.

Speaker 1 (03:09:30):
So we're going to pass the bill to stop crime.
We may not get one Democrat vote. Okay, we may
not get one. So when you say continue your resolution,
I guess so. And it's going to be passed exclusively
by Republicans.

Speaker 41 (03:09:46):
Why changes to the age two way.

Speaker 1 (03:09:51):
PISA program for farm worker?

Speaker 2 (03:09:53):
Right?

Speaker 6 (03:09:53):
You mentioned that you want to changes.

Speaker 20 (03:09:55):
Do you want to see that before the fall harvest?

Speaker 1 (03:09:58):
Well? I love both groups, and we take care of
our farmers, and we also take care of the people
that want bad people out of our country. And we're
working on something that's gonna work really well. We take
care of our farmers, but we also have to take
care of those people that voted for me because they
don't want criminals in our country, and we're working on
something where we can take care of both.

Speaker 20 (03:10:21):
Talking about report that two of your cabinet members were talking.

Speaker 19 (03:10:24):
About, I remember back on Liberation Day, many of US
reporters covered your detractors people saying that it was gonna
explode the deficit and therefore explode the death Who all has.

Speaker 9 (03:10:33):
Called you to say I was wrong?

Speaker 2 (03:10:38):
You know the incident.

Speaker 19 (03:10:43):
Government printsurher said yesterday that he at the press conference
that he would encourage non violent resistance to the National.

Speaker 6 (03:10:49):
Guard if they were sent to Chicago. What's your response
to that?

Speaker 9 (03:10:52):
He said, what did you would encourage non violent resistance.

Speaker 1 (03:10:55):
If the National Guard is sent to Like this guy
doesn't know what resistance is or nonviolent resistances.

Speaker 2 (03:11:04):
He's a bad politician. It's amazing.

Speaker 1 (03:11:08):
I mean, if he didn't have the money, he wouldn't
get any votes because there's no compelling reason to vote
for him as a major loser. But it would be
nice if he would call me. I would change my mind.
Immediately said, you know, because everybody knows Chicago is a
hell whole right now, everybody knows. It's not like he's
saying Chicago has much better in numbers, right, Well, what's
much better?

Speaker 2 (03:11:28):
You mean one hundred people are going to be murdered.

Speaker 1 (03:11:31):
It's going to be much more. So I would have
much more respect for Pritsker. If he'd call me up
and say, I have a problem, can you help me
fix it? I would be so happy to do it.
I don't love not that I don't have the right
to do anything I want to do. I'm the president
of the United States. If I think our country is
in danger, and it is in danger in these cities,
I can do it no problem going in and solving

(03:11:55):
his difficulties. But it would be nice if they'd call
and they say, would you do it?

Speaker 2 (03:12:00):
And we do it in conjunction.

Speaker 1 (03:12:01):
Now, we work very well with the police because we
naturally get along with the police. So the police and
us work really well together, whether the mayor is opposed
or whether I mean, you have a really rotten mayor
there too. He's got a six percent approval writing in Chicago,
and I see black women wearing a red maga hat
last night on television. Please let the President come in.

(03:12:23):
My son was attacked this You have a force of
black women. Black women, they're like only Trump. They want
Trump to come in. And you see them. They're all
over the place in Chicago because they're afraid to go
out and they don't want their son or their daughter killed,

(03:12:44):
just like your parents didn't want you killed.

Speaker 2 (03:12:47):
And we have a tremendous luck.

Speaker 1 (03:12:51):
It's not about winning elections, because we want to have nice,
fair elections. It's not politics. We want to see a
safe country. People that want to see a safe country,
and they're great people. You have great people in Chicago.
The mayor is at six percent approval. He's an incompetent man.
He should have never been put in a position like that.

(03:13:12):
He can't handle it. You have an incompetent governor there.
You have an incompetent governor in California. Yaffi, he's I
know him very well. He's incompetent. He's a nice guy,
looks good. Hi.

Speaker 2 (03:13:24):
Everybody, how you doing.

Speaker 1 (03:13:25):
He's got some strange hand action going. I don't know
what the hell is the problem. Or it's a little weird,
to be honest, there's a little something shaky going on there.
But you know, all he has to do is call
me and say, we have the Olympics coming up. We
want to make it really good and safe, and I'll
put some really good, great American patriots in there and

(03:13:46):
you won't have any problems.

Speaker 2 (03:13:47):
Don't forget.

Speaker 1 (03:13:48):
It's loaded up with some stone cold killers, some really
bad people, some people that were just born to be bad.
They're criminals, bad criminals, dangerous, and we could solve the
problem for him very quickly.

Speaker 3 (03:14:05):
You know what I think.

Speaker 2 (03:14:06):
I think this.

Speaker 1 (03:14:08):
You have not had this happen for four years, you said,
and you'd ask one question to Biden, and it was
always the ice cream question, right, what flavor ice cream you?
I like vanilla? And that was the end of the conference.

Speaker 2 (03:14:27):
I think now we've done.

Speaker 1 (03:14:29):
These people are very busy. I want to just think
this is the greatest. This has never been done before.
First of all, a cabinet meeting, it was sacred. You'd
never let the fake news media in. But the fake
news media is an all fake. A lot of it is,
but it's not all. I think it's a great thing.
I think it's maybe it's going to be done in

(03:14:50):
the future. I hope it's going to be done. But
you really get the word out. I mean, we had
each one of these people spoke, I think each one.
If I thought one of them did, I would call
that person out. I would say, Christy, what are you doing.

Speaker 7 (03:15:06):
Now?

Speaker 1 (03:15:06):
But seriously, you have a very talented group of people.
They get along, they work along together, and there's something
really nice about just you know, the openness of what
we're doing. It's government. It's an open government. That's what
we are.

Speaker 2 (03:15:19):
And we haven't made too many mistakes.

Speaker 1 (03:15:23):
Maybe will, but we haven't made too many mistakes. We've
called it right. And I think you can be very
proud of your country. We are a respected country again.
We are really right now, respected at the highest level, and.

Speaker 2 (03:15:36):
We're doing great.

Speaker 1 (03:15:37):
And we're a very rich country again, very rich, and
that's a good thing because when we're rich, we can
take care of poor. And that's what we're doing, and
we're taking care of crime. And I hope just in finishing,
I hope that Illinois, I hope that New York. I
hope that California. I hope they call me and they say,
I'd love to have you come in and help us out.

(03:15:59):
I will be a totally different person with them. I
will respect them for doing it. Thank you all very much,
Thank you everybody.

Speaker 6 (03:16:14):
Awesome
