Speaker 1 (00:00):
Before we really dive into another week of news, It's
nice to see where we've been. Here is White House
Press Secretary Caroline Levitt with your Maga Minute from last week.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Hello everybody, it has been a very productive week here
at the White House, so let's roll through it for
the Maga Minute. The President and the First Lady hosted
the annual Easter Egg Roll with more than forty thousand
guests and attendance from across the country. The President welcomed
a group of wounded veterans and heroes into the Oval
Office and met with the Prime Minister of Norway at

(00:31):
the White House. It was also another big week for
investments in the United States. Bayer, Chevron, Coinbase, Roche, Toyota, GM,
and Shobani all announced investments in the United States, opening
offices and pouring billions of dollars into creating businesses and
American jobs, and a major win for the MAHA movement.

(00:52):
Secretary of Health and Human Services Kennedy announced that eight
artificial food dives would be phased out of medication and
food by the end of twenty twenty six. Attorney General
Pam Bondi launched a task force to eradicate anti Christian
bias from our institutions. Our border continues to be the
most secure and has ever been in our nation's history,

(01:13):
with the Wall Street Journal even touting our massive successes.
Next week marks one hundred historic days of the Trump administration.
We have a lot in store for you, so stay
tuned and we'll see you for next week's magamute.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
By the way, a minute seventeen on that I was
looking and she just cannot get a minute in a minute.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
It's hard to do exact talk for sixty seconds.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
It's kind of requirement in radio. Yeah, right, that's how
advertising works. They make sure that we stick to the
minute rule. But they don't make her do it.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
No, they do not.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Oh, it's not as important as radio.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Well, you know it's interesting too because we don't have
a script or anything. We're just winging it most of
the time. We're not believe it or not. There's not
much of a play going on here.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Believe it. We don't know what we're doing. Our radio
show is so much from one minute to the next.
You know, there's so much less organization that goes into
this than there is in Gosh, I don't know every
network news broadcast listen to how Locke Sin can step
all these people up.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
We begin tonight with the escalation in the President's crackdown
on illegal immigration. Today's dramatic escalation in the Trump Administration's
conflict with judges at the Trump administration signaling of major
escalation and its deportation efforts today, and escalation and the
Trump Administration's battle with the judiciary.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Tensions between local and federal authorities of our President Trump's
immigration crackdown escalated today.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
We began this hour with a major escalation of the
Trump Administration's cracked down and immigration as.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
We begin with what appears to be a major escalation
in the Trump Administration's deportation efforts, and what is a
major escalation in the battles here in DC over immigration
and deportation. This feels like an insane and reckless escalation
from the Trump administration, a lusting a judge, I will
tell you you are not alone.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Is a dramatic escalation, more.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Aggressive moves, more escalation.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
From escalation of this kind of escalatory action, dramatic escalation.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Escalation, escalation, escalation, escalation, escalation.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
He's seen an immigration and escalation and escalation.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
What's that? What dyach name that can't say escalation, that
would be al sharp, too sharp too. That's it. Sure
would like to forget about him, but he's still a thing.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
It is kind of amazing how he went from being
one of the most batsuit crazy activists of the eighties
to being part of the mainstream media today.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, here's here's history back in eighty
eighty eight, late eighties is just duh, just ridiculous. But hey,
you know, yeah, he's he's got some sort of a
privilege almost that seems to let him get a pass
on all that. It does seem like he has some
kind of privilege. What kind of history and privilege do

(03:58):
you think that is?

Speaker 1 (04:00):
There are younger listeners who don't know the show in
the eighties he used to appear on. It was called
Robert What was it called Robert not Robert Downey Junior?
What was the show called Martin Down? That talk show again,
Martin Down. He used to be on this. There used
to be a show, a daytime talk show is so
trashy that it was often equated to being like pro wrestling,

(04:20):
and Al Sharpton was the villain on this show. They
would bring him out and he would scream about the
Jews and he would throw a chair, and you would think,
back in the day, there's no way this guy ever
becomes a respected member of society.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Weirdly, today he's well, I don't know about respected, but
he's there.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
He's on NBC News though, I mean every day, like
he's just part of the Yeah, this is just part
of society.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Now.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
It's totally normal that this guy is here, you know.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
So they had about a dozen different clips. I'm sure
there are more that we could, you know, just drive
you crazy with. But they come out with the word
of the day or the phrase of the day. They
spread it around. I guess everybody gets do they send
that out on signal? Do you know? Oh, that's right,
the signal app is that's the little Higgs it's been using.

(05:05):
It gets him in trouble. Somebody's aggravated with him because well,
you know, because he's Trump's man.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yeah, and it's one more stupid, tiny, little example of
hypocrisy from the left. But we all know that most
of the liberal media's talking points actually come from academia.
We pay that, we pay these college tenured college professors
to run a university, but Instead, what they're doing is
coming up with strategy for the Democrat Party, and supposedly

(05:33):
right now at places like Harvard and Columbia, they're all
using the Signal app to communicate with each other about
the fear of Trump deportations for professors on campus.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
Isn't that escalation? Yeah, or whatever Sharpton calls it, escalation
x exca excalation. Very Sharpton should be the one who
put out the word of the day. Make sure it's
something he can pronounce first before they send it out
to everybody else.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Well, yeah, that is and it's a stute idea. That
is fantastic. Oh I thought you said it was a stute. No, No,
it's good. I mean it's You're right. They should make
sure the last thing they want to do is have
one of the most important members of their club look
stupid on TV every single day. That you're right about,
that's a great idea. I should probably leave now, leave

(06:25):
them want more? As Costanzeis used to say, well they
should send you a check, is all my Well.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
That's that's true. I should probably do that. You know what,
I'm real proud of this weekend. I prove to myself
I'm not that interested in the NFL. Now when they're
playing a game, I'll probably tune in. And I don't
think I've watched a full game outside of playoffs or
super Bowl for probably the last five six years. The

(06:51):
NFL just and this weekend did not concern myself at
all with the big draft and who got. I don't
know who the Saints got. Really, Oh yeah, I don't
know what they got. That that stud from Oklahoma Sooners Stutsman. Sure, yeah, yeah,
I've seen him play. I watched him, you know, play

(07:11):
a couple of games live. He's great in college. We
just never know how they're gonna turn out into pros.
You don't know if a Dione boy prime junior or
whatever do or Yeah that that don't sound right, No,
it does not. Every time you say that, I'm like.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Can you say that?

Speaker 3 (07:28):
We don't know what he's gonna do. He might turn
that whole Cleveland thing around like y'all were talking about.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
I think the most interesting draft is the Florida defensive
tackle Desmond Watson.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Why is he interesting? Four hundred and sixty four pounds,
pretty big old boy. Yeah, that's a big guy, dude, Like,
how does he even out, they'll probably work a little
that off of him. You know, he might not have
been on the best nutritional program.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Four hundred sixty four pounds, six foot six, plays defensive tackle.
He's gonna be going to Tampa Bay. And that's an
interesting guy to watch there, you know, because this seems
seems kind of unhealthy a little bit. It's a big
boy though, apparently if he can play defensive yeah, I
mean for that position, I guess it's okay.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
But I did see something kind of interesting that a
football player was up to UH Eagles running back Saquon
Barkley getting off the helicopter with Trump just hanging out
on the tarmac. Now, I was a little curious as
to why that was. Did he go to the funeral
with him? No, that was that would have been on

(08:32):
Air Force one. This was on the helicopter. Saquon was
at President Trump's golf course in New Jersey. I'm assuming
Trump was playing because he was riding with Trump, and
so they got a video of him getting off the
helicopter to go, so he he caught a ride with him.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
I don't go back to d C. I guess, yeah, Well,
that's exciting, just hanging out. Yeah, and yeah, Trump doesn't
seem to love football.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
They're supposed to have that. You know, the Super Bowl victory,
the team goes to Washington and you know, meets the president,
blah blah blah. I think that's supposed to be today.
So I guess Jay Kwa was just hanging out, washing
and waiting on everybody else to show up.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, this is very awkward for the liberal media because
they want to hate Trump. But one group of people
that does not hate Trump are male black celebrities. They seemed,
especially athletes and rappers. They really seem to get up.
And that's the exact group of people that I got
to think white liberals want to pander to the most
that they'd all love to tell you they're friends with
the cool black guy. But all those cool black guys

(09:37):
seem to be friends with Trump. That's a little awkward.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
One of the players might have been the quarterback for
the Eagles. Somebody asked him about it over the weekend.
You go to the White House, and he didn't answer.
So everybody's like, oh, I'll but they hate Trump. The
let's see. The team owner said it was a time
honored tradition and the team is looking forward to it. Okay, well,

(10:00):
there you go.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
Do you think remember when Trump had what did he
host the Clemson Tigers and they didn't have enough money
to cater to the party, so he bought all the
kids fast food?

Speaker 3 (10:10):
Didn't they have McDonald's hamburger stacked to the ceiling? It
was so many of them, That's what Trump said.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
And then the New York Times fact checked him and
said it wasn't actually that many.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah, they fact checked the fact that he said, oh,
we got them stacked to the ceiling. Idiots.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
I don't know about you guys, but I just feel
like these journalists, we cannot pay them enough. They're so
good at their jobs.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
Well, i'll tell you what though, that Chuck Schumer, he's
got a handle on this. The journalists might not get it,
but Chuck Schumer, he's been in politics long enough to
know that Donald Trump is breaking the law by inforcing
the law.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Yeah, this was a weird position for Chuck Schumer to take.
He basically came out and said that if Donald Trump
thinks we can enforce immigration laws, he's a criminal, which
is a weird It's like, did you not know how
the last election ended? People really do not want you
to do this anymore. But you guys are just doubling
down on helping illegal immigrants.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
She also said, uh, and I'm sure he's not the first.
I think that idiot Al Green from Houston's already brought
it up. But he h not ruling out impeaching Trump
assuming the Democrats win in the midterm. They're already batting
that about, you know, just yeah, yeah, you know, we'll
want to impeach him some more.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Oh that reminds me. Al Green had a press conference
this week oh boy, to talk about a racial slur
that was used against him by a fellow member of Congress.
He's gonna be okay, a lawmaker from Tennessee called Al
Green boy, oh lord, yeah, And so he got together,
like dozens of people got together to join Al Green

(11:52):
at a presser this weekend to talk about how you
ought not ever referred to an elderly black man as boy.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
Did they imprison the guy that senator? Did they just
take him out back and shoot him? It was a
woman named Diana harshbard Er. I don't think that that's
not gonna cut you any slack on this one anyway.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
All Green's really mad. And he even went on to say,
there are some people that think I keep a weapon
in this cane that I carry around, And he went
on to say, I'm not going to tell you if
there's a weapon in this case.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
So there's not cool. Walton and Johnson Radio Network.

Speaker 4 (12:23):
The idea that no person is above the law is
a bedrock principle of American justice.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
No man is above the law, no matter what the crime.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
And I agree with you, no man is above the law,
and no person is.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Above the law. No one is above the law. No
one is above the law. No one's above the law.
No one is above the law.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
No man is above the law.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Nobody is above the law.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
No one is above the law.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
The law. Law, Yeah, no law. Start all these people.
Uh well, it's pretty much every liberal and rhino in America.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
Everybody that's ever been on mainstream media says, nobody's a
the law.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
That was a montage that goes on for another two minutes.
Oh Jesus, the people reacting to Donald Trump having his
home rated. Remember that was before we figured out the
thing they were trying to prosecute him for is something
Joe Biden did a.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Lot of something a lot of other people did to
spend time in the White House.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Yeah, classified document on Trump.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
We needed to raid his house, you know what, two
in the morning and go through his wives underword drawer,
which you know I probably would have done that too
if i'd have been there.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
I gotta think everybody. I thank you. Billy.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Come on, let be honest. You're already in Trump's bedroom.
You ain't gonna go in Malania's drawers, Billy.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah, I would never know. Uh maybe maybe, but Okay,
that's from two years ago, and I gotta think everybody
from two years ago that wrote and nobody is above
the Law tweet probably deleted it this weekend when they
found out the FBI arrested Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan for
obstruction in an immigration case.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
Will they think she's above the law? She sure thinks so, okay, so,
FBI Director Cash Battal said Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah
Dugan intention only misdirected federal agents away from an immigrant
who was in America illegally and was set to be arrested.
She slipped him out the back door. She told him
all way up here in the front, and then she's
got her own private exit from her chambers. I guess

(14:15):
that sound dirty, didn't it.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (14:16):
But yeah, she just went and got the defendant and
got his lawyer, said come with me. This is textbook
walked him right out to back door.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Right. There's no two ways about it. This was illegal.
Even CNN's senior legal analyst Eli Hoenig made this point
over the weekend, and everybody on the panel was shaking
their head. No, like he was crazy.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
Looking at the complaint. Let's strip the politics out of it.
This is a crime. If they can prove what happened here,
it is a crime, this judge, Let's let's strip the
trump of it all out. Let's strip the immigration of
it all out. Let's say law enforcement shows up at
a building with an arrest warrant. They're looking for person A.
Person B then says, hey, there's a secret escape.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
Door out back.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
I'm going to show you the way, and then ushers
that person help at that door.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
That is textbook obstruction.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
Did you see the ladies sitting next to him, She's
seeing in report she was physically moving away from him.
She turned to look the other way. I don't know
if it was somebody over there that she was, you know,
like pleading with.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Make this man shut up.

Speaker 3 (15:18):
But then she literally leaned far off cameras she could.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
But remember it's not even the first time this has happened. Recently,
another New Mexico judge and his wife were arrested on
charges of tampering with evidence linked to suspected Trendy Aragua
gang member. They were protecting gang members. It's in New Mexico.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Well, yeah, they're trying to bring them back from foreign
countries because we didn't. We miss them so much.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
It's kind of wild. About a week ago we saw
these judges doing things that were clearly unconstitutional to protect
illegal migrants, and somehow it got worse since then. Yeah,
a week ago we all thought, well, this is weird.
A judge is trying to protect criminals in a foreign
country and why would they do that. And then the judges,
the people of the judicial community said here, hold my beer,

(16:03):
I can get even crazy.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
You bet you, we can protect them were out here
in this country too, and they did. They have a conclave.
Hi guys, good morning, Happy Monday.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Good morning, mister Kenneth.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
You guys aren't suffering from a case of the mondays,
are you?

Speaker 1 (16:18):
No, I don't mind. I enjoy this job.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
We have a date for the conclave, it's like a
week and a half away. They're taking their time. Then
they already finish the services. It's over, so why can't
they get to work?

Speaker 1 (16:33):
Okay, So now the cardinals have to begin the exhaustive
process of talking to each other. Oh no, yeah, they
have to really get to know, you know, because there's
hundreds of them.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
Oh god, yea.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
And so they need to figure out who among us
should be the next pope, and the deals will be made,
conversations will be had.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
Oh, so this is the it's a week from Wednesday,
it'll be May seventh, so they've got, you know, seven
or eight days of politicking. I guess before they are sequestered.
I saw Conclave. I know you guys have heard of
the movie. I don't know if anybody else has seen it.
But they sequester them, and they they lock them in

(17:14):
this room. I don't know. Is it at the Sistine
Chapel or is that where the funeral was. Anyway, they
lock them in somewhere and though the windows have like
metal blinds on the outside of them, and they all
come down so that they're they're like sealed in a
tomb and then a few days later they're all supposed
to come out, all right.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
One thing we cannot figure out is why can't unregistered
voters participate in selecting the next pope.

Speaker 3 (17:38):
We get a lot of emails about that, and it
seems right to me. The guy wants to know. It's like,
can I vote for the pope? I don't understand unregistered
voters should be allowed to vote for the pope.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
Yeah, different Catholic NGOs, the non government organizations funded by
USAID and things like that. They all told us repeatedly,
just because you're not a city and doesn't mean you
shouldn't be able to vote.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
So even if you're not a cardinal, you should you
should get a vote.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Sure.

Speaker 3 (18:07):
It takes forever, by the way, because they all have
to write a name down, then they have to walk
up and swear before God that this is their true heart,
and then they put it in a little container. And
after all all of them have come up and done that,
then they have to count them out, one at a time,

(18:27):
out loud, and they have to register it. Blah blah blah.
It takes forever.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
Yeah, One thing I cannot wrap my mind around. Is
why a group of Catholics Catholics says like majority of
Catholics support these open border policies, knowing full well that
this is a system that allows human trafficking, child sex, slavery.
It's like, yeah, but we want to give them copies
of Kamali's book when they come over the border. They
have a wall at the Vatican, sure do that. That's

(18:54):
a little bit hypocritical. They won't let just anybody vote.
That's the little bit hypocritical.

Speaker 3 (19:01):
They I think the last Pope didn't like Trump's wall,
No he did not, But that's hypocritical.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
Seem fine with having his own wall there. What really
is the difference between the Swiss Guard and the border
patrol And it's kind of the same thing.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
Just Guard rides horses, no or uses their their leather
bull whips to mercilessly or is it merciless inflict pain
and injury upon these poor little brown people that just
want a better life.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Well, hang on a second. The Swiss Guard, they have
ancient weapons. Look at these, they have axes. Look at
their fairly outfits. Frankly, I kind of want to dress
like this. I think it's a good. Look.

Speaker 3 (19:43):
I think you have worn something similar to that one.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
They look like clowns with helmets and then they have axes.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
You think the outfit is to distract you from the
fact that they might be really good warriors or something.
I mean, honestly, that might make the enemy start laughing
when they see them.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
They get chicks.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
Finally, the tradition, you know, like hundreds of years ago,
they showed up on the battlefield to protect the pope
and all the other guys would just start cracking up, laughing,
look that outfit, and then they killed him, right, yeah, exactly.
Damn that's brilliant. Actually, you gotta think it's kind of
like when you pointed some guy's shirt and then he
looks down and you flick him in the nose. That's
a that's an ancient military strategy right there. So I

(20:23):
guess we're not getting the vote.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
No, I don't think so.

Speaker 4 (20:25):
Now, wearing that on Monday, what are you gonna wear
on casual Friday?

Speaker 3 (20:29):
To post its in a sugar packet? Walton and Johnson
