I'm Steve Guru, the pulse of the people. We need somebody that's going to hear the people's voice, the truth the mainstream won't touch. This guy is by definition, a globalist. And the stories that matter, Rav's own Ben Berklam right up over this hill cartel. I see him. I see him. I see him. Live breaking news right now here on Real America's Voice Filtered. These people are domestic terrorists and unapologetic. We're here to take a stand for God and country. Let's feel good. America's Voice Live starts now. Welcome to America's Voice Live. I'm Steve Gur. Today is Friday 25th September, year of our Lord 2025. Let's get to the day stops right. As always, thank you for spending time with us here. Unreal America's Voice. Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted by a grand jury on two counts, both of which are in connection with the investigation into the Russian collusion hoax cooked up by the far left. But what will come of the indictment? I'll bring on a former Trump attorney to discuss that today. Also, Jimmy Kimmel Live returned Tuesday night after a week long suspension for his ridiculous comments following Charlie Kirk's assassination over two weeks ago. Now, conservatives view his monologue as a lackluster attempt to placate the masses, but nowhere near an honest apology that we'll discuss more detail today, then later. Real America's Voice border correspondent Oscar Ramirez has seemingly been targeted for his reporting on Mexico's attempts to hold government officials accountable in dealing with the cartels. He'll be here today to give us the latest. All the details and more coming your way. But we start here today. Dr. Ben Carson, a former neurosurgeon who served as Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development during President Trump's first term, has now been sworn in as the National Advisor for nutrition, Health and Housing at the United States Department of Agriculture. Agriculture is an important part of the American culture, of course. Providing food for millions and millions of people here and around the world and improving nutrition for all Americans, that's just part of its responsibilities. But what happens when our agricultural system becomes the target of an attack? That's one question today. That happened not too long ago when two Chinese nationalists linked to the University of Michigan tried to smuggle in a potential agroterror weapon. A fungus that would have proven to be detrimental to American crops could have taken out half of our corn, wheat and beans. The threat to our agricultural system is not one to be taken lightly, especially when dealing with the ccp. America is also facing a health crisis. From obesity to autism. The numbers have climbed dramatically over the recent years. But the Trump administration is working hard to make America healthy again with the help of RFK Jr. President Trump made an announcement earlier this week regarding a link potentially between autism and acetaminophen, better known as Tylenol, when taken during pregnancy. It should be avoided, they say. Here with me to discuss this and so much more of the news of the day is national advisor for nutrition, health and housing, brand new to the job, Dr. Ben Carson. Doctor, nice to see you again. Good to see you, Steve. Congratulations on the new job. Outline it for us a little bit. Tell us what the responsibilities are in a nutshell. Well, basically, our society has become kind of lazy when it comes to the nutrition. And we eat what's easy and what's fast as opposed to what's good for us. And we want to change that equation and make it much easier for people to get healthy food, particularly in some of the economically depressed areas. People on snap, you know, they don't have a lot of good choices. We've removed some the bad choices and replaced them with a lot of good choices. We've gone from 12 essential things to 28. And we're working on making sure that the pricing is compatible with their economic status. So that's very important. But also just to emphasize to everyone what food does for you, what good food does for you. For example, I have a very good friend who had diabetes and he's been in Italy for the last two months and his diabetes has disappeared. It tells you that there's something going on here with the way that we prepare and partake of our food. So those are kind of things we'll be looking at. We'll be looking at the fact that. Let me ask you about this because this is one of the things that people have pointed out for years now, the food pyramid as designed, that I first saw when I was probably in about the fifth grade or whatever. A lot of people say the food pyramid is absolutely upside down. It's wrong. Too many carbohydrates, too much sugar. Obesity in America is off the rails. You know that. You see it every day as we all do. Is the food pyramid something that needs to be addressed? Do we need to change the way we talk about nutrition? Well, we need to make sure that people understand where their calories come from. We need to make sure that people are getting appropriate amount of muscle building materials in their food. And a lot of it is secondary to the fact that people just don't know. We don't talk about it, so they don't know. We also recognize that it's different from state to state. When you look at the state that has the highest longevity, Hawaii versus the lowest, Mississippi and Alabama, you're talking eight years difference in terms of life expectancy. These are things well within our purview to be able to study and come up with relatively quick answers to why the difference is so substantial. Let me ask you about the announcement here a couple of days ago involving the President and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. When it comes to the potential relationship between Tylenol and autism. They didn't say it was cause and effect, but they said it's relational. And, and the Tylenol has been warning pregnant women not to take its product when they're pregnant for years. It's been out there for quite some time. I found posts from 2017 warning that it seems many people on the left don't take it seriously. I've seen all these videos of pregnant women taking Tylenol because apparently they dislike Donald Trump so much that they'll just take these pills when there's no need for it. That's reckless, isn't it? It's absolutely absurd that people would do things like that. But you know, these studies have been around for a long time. The multi cohort studies, the studies out of Johns Hopkins Mount Sinai have demonstrated that there is a relationship and have issued cautions for people. But I wonder what would happen if we didn't tell people that this was the case then wouldn't they be the same people jumping up and down and saying why didn't you tell us? Why didn't you tell us this danger existed? Some people you're just not going to satisfy no matter what you do. You know, basically all medicines have a warning label. They tell you what things could happen. When you see those commercials on television about all these different medications, most of the commercial is about the things that could happen. But it doesn't mean that it's going to happen. It's just that you should be aware of it and working with your physician, you should be able to determine what the risk to you is and what the benefit is. Yeah, you know, every drug that's been taken off the market at some point was referred to as safe and effective. So obviously there's a downside out there somewhere. What about that advertising you mentioned? Is that something that needs to be addressed? All this advertising and people self diagnosing and then maybe self medicating, That's a dangerous road too, isn't it? I think it's a very dangerous road. Most countries don't allow it, but we Sometimes allow things that others don't because the worship of the almighty dollar and we really need to start thinking more about the welfare of our citizens. Yeah. As I sit here, I wonder, and I'll be a bit sarcastic here, but I wonder if Donald Trump came out as the president and said smoking is bad for you, would we be seeing a wave of people lighting up cigarettes on TikTok and social media just because they hate him so much they'll do anything that's contrary to what he says? Well, Trump derangement syndrome is a real thing. You know, I've seen people who've caught the disease who used to be reasonable people and they're not anymore. And so, yeah, I think some people would probably go out and start smoking if he said that they shouldn't. It's pretty amazing. But you know, we shouldn't give up on these individuals. They're our fellow Americans. The Bible tells us to love our neighbors. We should continue to work with them, keep the dialogue open and try to have conversations around the facts. Yeah, I agree with that. All right, so nutrition, health and housing. Those are the three things in the title. You're the advisor for these things. Let's talk about housing in America. There is a problem. There's a lot of pressure on housing and getting people into housing that's appropriate for their families and for the well being. And it's also a big part of health, isn't it? Nutrition, health and housing. These things are together for a reason, aren't they? Yeah, they absolutely go together. And you know, the biggest problem we have with housing, quite frankly, is regulations. We're very crafty and skilled at producing housing. Some of the modern technology is just amazing and can be done for, you know, a relatively small amount of money. But by the time you get through all the regulations, you're way up there in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. And that is something that I think we can solve. We have a very competent team over at HUD and they are working on this and a host of other things and we're happy to work with them. Yeah, One of the things we need to do is reinforce the middle class, make sure the people that go to work every day can afford to eat well, to look after their health and to have a good place to live. These are all critical components of being healthy in America today. I'll give you the last word, doctor. The last word is, you know, it's a choice. And we need to emphasize to people you get to choose how you're going to live your life, and you will reap the benefits or suffer the consequences. I've always said if everybody ate three well balanced, nutritious meals a day, drank six to eight glasses of water, exercised regularly, got regular sleep and didn't put harmful substances in their body, most people in medicine would be looking for a job. That's very true. Nutrition, sleep. Very important. One thing that people don't mention, a lot of sleep, consistent, disciplined sleep. I try to do that every day, actually. Dr. Carson, always a pleasure talking to you, sir. Congratulations on the new job. We look forward to hearing of some of your successes in the future. Thank you. Really appreciated. All right, let's see here. I need to tell you about something else here. As many of you know, I'm located here in the battleground state of Michigan, a swing state, a critical state. And with the midterms coming up, it's imperative that we praise the Republican lawmakers of this state for standing strong with President Trump. My friend, the speaker of the House here in Michigan, Matt hall, is trying to do exactly that. He is showing the kind of leadership that Republicans should be proud of, frankly, not just in Michigan, but all across this country. And that's because he is standing shoulder to shoulder with the president right now to stop the expansion of the 340B drug pricing program, which is in Michigan. Let me explain this to you. The 340B pricing program was intended to help healthcare providers serving vulnerable populations purchase outpatient prescription drugs at discounted rates. But as you can imagine, that's not what's happening. Instead, the 340B pricing program is being exploited by some hospitals to buy drugs at a huge discount and then resell them at elevated prices, generating huge profits. You see the problem? And as one report put it, Trump allies are opposing this expansion for a litany of reasons, ranging from concerns about child genital mutilation surgeries to a broader undermining of Trump's agenda. And Matt hall has made it clear he is standing up to hospital special interests to protect taxpayers on 340B. And that's exactly what this is all about. That's what this fight comes down to, protecting families and not padding the pockets of executives at these big hospitals. According to a recent report from the Congressional Budget Office, 340B isn't costing taxpayers less money. It's costing them more, doing the exact opposite of its intention. At an increasing rate of 20% a year, the program is incentivizing hospitals to push expensive drugs while draining federal resources. Meanwhile, hospital executives, many of them right here in Michigan, earning seven figure salaries and lobbying for even more taxpayer subsidies and money. Remarkable, right? Speaker Hall's stance lines up directly with President Trump's Make America Healthy Again agenda, and he is earning praise from conservative leaders. Former Congressman Mike Bishop wrote in the Detroit News that Hall deserves credit for demanding accountability from Michigan's hospital lobby. Bishop pointed out that instead of lowering costs, the 340B program is fueling consolidation, skyrocketing prices and shrinking real charity care. And that's all important. Matt hall showing courage. He's standing with President Trump and the taxpayers, all while standing up to hospital special interests that have turned 340B into a cash cow at the expense of patience and you, the taxpayer. This is the kind of leadership Republicans should rally behind, not just in Michigan, but across the country. I tip my hat to Matt Hall. Coming up after the break, a grand jury, as you've probably heard, has indicted former FBI Director James Comey on two counts regarding the investigation into the Russian collusion hoax. I'll bring on former Trump attorney Christina Bobb in a moment to discuss. I'll be right back. Stop settling for weak sound. It's time to level up your game and bring the boom.

Bring the Boom XBoom. Well, unless you've been completely disconnected for the last 24 hours, I'm sure you know that former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted by a grand jury on two counts, both of which are in connection with the investigation into the Russia collusion hoax cooked up by those on the left. The indictment alleges that Comey obstructed a congressional investigation into the disclosure of sensitive information in violation of 18 USC 1505. The indictment also alleges that Comey made a false statement in violation of 18 USC 1001. Comey stated that he did not authorize someone at the FBI to be an anonymous source. Comey is expected to turn himself in to authorities today, and his arraignment is set for 10am on Oct. 9 in Virginia. He faces five years in prison if found guilty. It's a serious charge. Here with me to discuss this is the former Trump attorney and author of the book Defiant Christina Bobb. Christina, nice to see you today. Congratulations on the book. Thank you so much for having me, Steve. All right, so let's talk about this. I see all of these people on the left on social media going absolutely bonkers, screaming that Trump is using the DOJ to target his enemies. Now, please explain to the audience here how a grand jury works. Usually it's a couple dozen people, 24, 25 people. They get in a room. The prosecutor comes in, throws the case out. They're in there for less than two hours, and they return what's called a true bill of indictment. Right? That's how this works. Has nothing to do with Donald Trump. A grand jury made this decision. Explain. That's right. That's exactly right. I mean, it's Independent people, roughly a couple dozen, as you mentioned, depending on the day, depending on how many are available in this case. I don't know how many days they had the grand jury or if this was a standing grand jury, where, you know, this indictment was pretty simple. It's only two pages long. There's not a lot there as far as allegations go. And so I don't think it took them that long to present their case to the grand jury. And it's just, you know, is it reasonable to believe that a crime was committed? I mean, that's the standard. And the grand jury said yes. So this is not Donald Trump demanding Jim Comey being arrested and, you know, whatever. But I also can't help but kind of chuckle a little bit because we saw so much lawfare coming at Donald Trump, coming at his supporters, coming at his attorneys. I'm still a criminal defendant in my case. The Michigan electors were just thrown out a couple weeks ago. You still have Georgia open, Nevada, Wisconsin. I mean, there is still lawfare from the 2020 election going on that the left is still trying to throw people in prison for their beliefs surrounding 2020. So I have a hard time being empathetic on this especially. This is a small, clean, crisp indictment compared to what they did to Donald Trump, particularly if you look at the Mar A Lago case, for example, they had 39 counts. They threw everything they could think of in there on a very simple documents matter that he had lawful possession of everything anyway. But they wanted that sensational 100 years in prison type headline. So this is. They wanted that circus. Yeah, they wanted. They wanted the circus. They wanted the police cars in front of Mar A Lago. They wanted all the chaos and all the nonsense and all the noise. Let me ask you this, Christina. This grand jury indicting James Comey is seated in Virginia, I understand. Yeah, this is a blue state, Virginia. So it seems to me it is, as you put it, a clean, crisp indictment. They believed it. They believe he's guilty. And he is in real legal jeopardy here, isn't he? Yeah, he really is. It's not a slam dunk. I mean, anytime you have a case that is perceived to be political this way, I mean, he's accused of lying to Congress about leaking classified information about the Russia hoax, about the attempts to try to take down the President of the United States, I mean, these are pretty salacious facts, despite the fact that the indictment itself is actually pretty simple. So you never know how a jury is going to react to that. And he only needs one. The Prosecutors need to get a unanimous verdict, and he only has to appeal to one juror. So anytime you have a criminal trial, it's always a bit of a toss up, but it is in Northern Virginia. He may try to move venue, change the venue to Washington, D.C. because the questions were asked in D.C. you know, I don't know that it really matters that much because it's, you know, we're talking about a couple miles apart. It's not, you know, a huge distance. It's still basically largely the same jury pool. So I don't know what will happen with that. But it's not a slam dunk. But I do think it's a solid case. It's not a slam. No case in the courtroom is a slam dunk, I don't think. I think they all take different twists and turns. We'll see what happens. On another note, you probably saw this. The FBI now admits there were 274 agents embedded in the January 6th crowd. 274. And there's a whole herd of FBI agents that say political bias infected the operations there story apparently silenced for the last four years or more. What are your thoughts when you start reading these stories? It's honestly really infuriating because we all knew this was happening. And it goes to show that they rigged those juries for the January 6th defendants. People spent years in prison, and the government had an obligation to disclose this information to the defense counsel so that those criminal defendants could defend themselves and say, no, it wasn't me. The federal government was involved in this. There are a lot of defenses. You have entrapment issues. You have all kinds of Brady evidence issues that the government is required to turn over to the defense. And they hid it. They lied about it. They lied about these cases for political reasons. They threw people in prison. They destroyed their lives. Many people lost their homes, their families. You know, the stress of the situation caused relationships to fall apart. I mean, it's. It's really tragic what they did to these people. And they did it just to score some political points that ended up. It didn't matter anyway because they still lost. So it' syou know, on one hand, it's kind of funny because you go, oh, yeah, you know, we've known this. Finally it's coming out. But when you look at the consequences of what they actually did, it's appalling. And I mean, it's just absolutely appalling. It is absolutely appalling what they did. It seems as they ginned it up, they withheld the proof of what really went on that day. And I think there are a lot more answers still to come. Real quickly, the book, what's it about? Yes. So I was President Trump's custodian of records for the Mar A Lago raid. For everything leading up to it. I was part of responding to the subpoena, the original subpoena. You get all the text messages, emails, everything relating to the Mar A Lago case. You can make up your own mind about what you think happened. But I give you all the details. President Trump did the forward for the book. So I think you will be appalled to see what actually happened because it's not what the media told you you should autograph and send a copy over to James Comey. Just for sport, right, Christina? Yeah. Thank you. Thank you for being here. Thanks, Steve. All right. After the break, we'll have more as we look at Jimmy Kimmel has returned to late night time slots. Another affiliate group saying they're going to go ahead and run him again. Now that's Sinclair. So he's back. But was his apology real this week? Most don't think so. I'll be right back.

Now, conservatives view his monologue as a lackluster attempt to placate the masses, but certainly not an apology. I would agree with that. I don't watch the show, but I did catch the clips. ABC announced his return Monday with Sinclair Broadcasting holding out, but they have just in the last little while said they will put it on their affiliates. Nexstar is also still up in the air. Together they control almost 70 affiliates, reaching 70 million U.S. households, about 25% of American homes. Kimmel's viewership online for Tuesday was a record 6.7 million, a record high over 300% from his show's average of 1.42 million for the season. We'll see if that lasts. On Wednesday night, Nielsen estimated the views at 2.9 million, less than half the viewers from Tuesday night. So it's already diving because it's not funny. Breaking news reports show that Sinclair, like I said, bringing back the Kimmel show tonight. Here with me to discuss all of it, President of the Conservative Caucus, Jim Pfaff. Jim, nice to see you. Good to see you, sir. I'm just gonna go out on a limb here. First of all, I was wrong. You see, adults can do that from time to time. Jim, we can stand up here, look at the camera and say I was wrong because I didn't think Jimmy Kimmel was ever coming back. And I said it. I didn't think he was ever coming back on the air. I was wrong. However, caveat to that is this. I don't Think it lasts. His viewership went from 6.7 to 2.9 and it's going to return to that 1.5, 1.6. And you've got Gutfeld over there on a cable news channel doing more than double that, which he's going to continue to do. Jimmy Kimmel is an expensive piece of real estate to put in front of the camera and he's not returning the money. So my, my belief, Jim, is that it won't last. Your thoughts? No, it's not going to last because he's not funny. The, the apology, by the way, ended up turning off anyone might have gained as a longer term viewer if he'd actually apologized. All he did was talk about all of his intentions and he didn't want to do this, he didn't want to do that. Yeah, I mean, no, it was not an apology, period. Yeah, you're exactly right. He got teary eyed and I would never do this. My intention was, it's, I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I was callous to the murder of a 31 year old father of two who left a widow behind as well. I'm sorry that I did that. It was wrong. That's an apology, Jim. I mean, adults can demonstrate. And you know what, I can say I'm sorry too. I can say I was wrong and I can say I'm sorry. I'm good at both of those things. I'm married. Right. Easy thing to do. Yeah. Listen, for those of us old, old enough to remember it, the old happy days thing, Fonzie, you know, he never could admit is wrong. He would always say I was. I mean that's, that's kind of the way Democrats apologize about anything. There's no. But here's the problem. There's no heart in the radical Democrat left. It just does not exist. They have no heart for this country. They have no heart for their opponents, their political opponents. And they're not attempting to find an American vision. They've got a new vision of something that they want and they, they feel like they own us in these major TV broadcast networks because they used to be the dominant thing and they're not anymore, but they still feel that they are and they still feel entitled to tell you how you ought to think and feel. So they were crocodile tears at best. And his ratings are going down. I mean, they're not going to make money off it. Gutfeld makes money because the key demographic, that really is where the money is made. He dominates in even more than Jimmy Kimmel's. He's three times Jimmy Kimmel's numbers on average, but he's more than three times that on the key demographics. So, you know, these, the late night talk show thing is largely dying until there's a Johnny Carson type person who really was fairly, you know, telling jokes on both sides of the aisle and, and actually had an idea that, hey, you've had a long day, come in with me, let's sit down and have fun and, and have some hilarious discussions until they even try to do that again, which is unlikely. The whole format's dying. Can you imagine, by the way, Johnny Carson was the very best interviewer of all time. He had a, he had this really great knack, Jim. He would ask a question and then he would actually listen to the answer. A remarkable trait in somebody asking questions. And he would listen to what people said before he went on. He was the best interviewer ever. Most people are looking at their next question, not paying attention. But can you imagine Johnny Carson doing anything remotely like any of these late night clowns do right now, attacking, I mean, just viciously attacking people in ways that are unthinkable? I'll give you the last word on that. No. Yeah. In fact, he was asked about that at one time. There's a famous interview with Mike Wallace on 60 Minutes back in the day where he did talk about that. He said, it's not my job, my position to do that. And interestingly, Jay Leno and David Letterman in their peaks were the same way, roughly. I mean, they weren't as good as Johnny Carson, who will always be the best late night talk show host. It's never going to be challenged. But those guys were pretty good in their prime. And at that time, they were not radically one side or the other of the aisle, even though David Letterman went that way late in his career. But people love to have fun and if you're not going to let them have fun after a long day, then they're not going to listen. Yeah. And for anyone not old enough to remember, Johnny Carson was the goat, period. Go look him up, watch some tapes. You'll understand how well he did an interview. Real inspiration. Jim Pfaff, thank you for being here. Great to be with you. All right, well, we'll take a break here on America's Voice Live real quickly, share some thoughts on paying the bills and we'll be right back. Hey there, everyone. I'm Bo Davidson. And Tomorrow, Saturday at 7pm Eastern, I will be hosting a one hour special all about Angel Studios and the brand new partnership Real America's voice has forged with them. Now you know the name Angel Studios because of the chosen Sound of Freedom, Tuttle Twins, Cabrini, the Shift and a ton of other great content. I'll be talking to stars from Angels Productions such as Neil McDonough, Leigh Allen Baker and Sean Stone, who has a great new documentary about the Kennedys. So tune in tomorrow at 7pm Eastern to watch this special and you'll want to hear all about a brand new promotion that will give you exclusive access. See you there. Well, corruption in government, especially across the border in Mexico, is nothing new. But this time it seems like the well the perpetrators will be held accountable potentially. Last Thursday, Mexico's Ministry of Finance made an announcement notifying of sanctions imposed on individuals or businesses who deal with the Sinaloa cartel as the U.S. department of the treasury announced investigation into people who entities who knowingly helped the cartel group Las Males in Tijuana. Among this list the major player named was Araceli Brown, who had her bank account frozen. It's alleged that her previous tenure as mayor and Rosarita helped with money laundering for the cartel in the way of businesses being used as a front. What's more is that the former mayor is active on social media claiming to not know of the investigation by US Personnel. Join me here to discuss it is Real America's Voice border correspondent Oscar Ramirez. Oscar, thank you for being here. Greatly appreciate you taking time Whose reporting on these issues has garnered the attention of some unsavory individuals. Right? Tell us as much as you can regarding this ongoing and developing situation. Steve, thank you so much for the invitation. We started reporting on this just months ago as the Trump administration historically has never been no other administration who has done this to the government of Mexico. Pushing the government of Mexico and exposing the dirty politicians the state of Baja California, Steve, it is the one that is more aggravating involved and speculated to be involved with the only trafficking of gasoline, trafficking of synthetic drugs, but also being involved with the extortion in the state of Baja California with the Sinaloa cartel. First it started with the governor of Baja California, Marina del Pilar, her and her husband. Their visa was revoked and it was put on stop for just a few moments because the Department of Treasury said that they were under investigation. Then it led to the mayor of Mexicali, the city that is next to Calexico. They suspended her visa and just recently the former mayor of Rosarito Ilda Brown and actually she is a federal deputy right now of Mexico. Her visa was suspended to be in cahoots with the organized crime and the cartel to be also involved with several cartel members. One of them, it is better known as El Russo. He has been investigated and also he's wanted by the United States government and also by the government of Mexico. So a lot of things are going on in particularly the state of Baja that it is basically looking really bad on the eyes of the world that a lot of these politicians are involved with the organized crime. Yeah, I heard stories, Oscar, they came looking for you the other day. Did some of these cartel members tell that story, if you could, please? Yeah, this was around like 10, 12 days ago. You know, a couple of armed men tried to enter the premises where I live, a gated community. They, they asked for my specific address, my specific home they wanted to go in. And they said, quote, unquote, to the security guard that they wanted to just record the premises and they wanted to knock on my door and see how I, you know, talk to me for a little bit. The most aggravating thing about this is that after I gathered the recorded video, they went to family members, different family members, houses. I alerted my family members that this was happening. And a lot of them, they told me, hey, you know what? We saw the same vehicle with the same two individuals inside of the vehicle. So this led me to go to the, you know, some friends that I, that we have on the police department over here to alert them. And I had to remain quiet for, you know, for some days. Then sadly, the Charlie Kirk situation happened. So I remain more quiet. And now I asked for permission to talk about this and they gave me permission to explain what is going on. This is, you know, basically, you know, it happens over here in Mexico. It is number three in the world for assassinations towards journalists in the world. So it is, you know, it's the dangers that we go through over here, Steve, when we try to report these kind of circumstances. Number three in the world for political assassinations. Mexico. Yes. Or journalists. Yes, that, that, that, that's chilling. So you're concerned for your safety every day then from now on? Yes. You know, my family, it is extremely concerned. My father and my mother, extremely concerned. I have a 10 year old, Steve, that, you know, he watches my social media. So I had to had a long talk with them about, you know, nothing is going to happen, everything is going to be okay. We are taking different measures now with security. We have an investigative journalist that is, you know, following all our social media because of the constant, you know, derogatory threats and, you know, and consistent you know, threats of these people. They just basically want to eradicate our voices. And also now there's surveillance of what, you know, what's going on around our community. There is a concern, you know, on my behalf personally, yes, on my life, because we have been exposing and explaining all of these things that are happening, you know, to the border next to the United States. Steve. And my guess is that you're going to keep going, Oscar. My guess is you're going to continue to tell the truth. I'll give you the last word here. Absolutely. Steve. You know, we have talked to the journalist union and they have, you know, encouraged us to continue to do our jobs, to continue to, to expose what we're doing. As a matter of fact, we're not going to stop. We're going to continue. We're sick and tired of this. We are sick and tired of this insecurity. And we want, you know, what the Trump administration that is doing is what we fully support. These groups are domestic terrorists and they are terrorist organizations. And that is what they need to be labeled us. And we are going to continue to expose them and do our job. Steve, Oscar, thank you as always for being here. Be safe. Hat on a swivel, all that. Thank you. Thank you so much, Steve. It's always an honor to be with you. Thank you so much for the invitation. Thank you.

All right, we'll take a break and be right back here on America's Voice Live. Well, almost everyone watching can attest to the fact that they probably have a hobby. And President Trump's favorite pastime, as you all know, happens to be golf. In fact, President Trump enjoys golf so much that he decided to head down to the Ryder cup, happening in Farmingdale, New York, today with his granddaughter Kai. You've seen her around. She's a great golfer. And showing his support for the American team, of course. Join me now to discuss is real America's Voice correspondent David Zier, who pulled the the good straw today. He's live on location there at the Ryder Cup. David, you lucky dog. Looks like a lot of fun out there. Weather's good. And Donald Trump, what a reception. Yeah. So Trump boarded Air Force One. Steve, good afternoon. He boarded Air Force One a little while ago and took back off for the White House. We left the airport, came over here to the Embassy Diner, which is really patriotic venue. Place is incredible. And people have been coming from the Ryder cup over here and sharing their experience. Experiences. People lining the street for Trump's motorcade waving at him. And Born in the USA was blasting as he pulled up. Kai. Trump got cheers. Four fighter jets flew over the Ryder Cup. Captain Keegan Bradley did a little Trump dance in front of Trump. And, you know, as Bannon said, we'll never see these times again, maybe. And I have, you know, Gus, the owner of the Embassy Diner here, this guy at 5,000 people here for a drone show show in honor of 9 11. This place is phenomenal. And I did some man on the streets with some of the kids who just left the Ryder Cup. All right, so quite an event going on. How are we doing, honestly? I mean, I saw when Donald Trump came in, the place went wild. They did a flyover with the, with the fighter jets. The place went wild. He came over with Air Force One. The place went wild. Seems like they're pretty, pretty stoked on the president being around, and he gave the team a big pep talk. How they doing? Europe beat the United States eight of the last 11 Ryder Cups. Even though we have a better record overall. Europe is ahead 3 to 1 right now. But even Rory McElroy, who's not exactly, I'd say, the conservative, you know, was praising the United States. There's a lot of unity over there. You know, Bryce into Shambeau and Scotty Scheffler. These guys are friends with Trump. Trump has just Added that flair. This thing's bringing $200 million into the local economy here, which is just incredible. And he helped avert a strike on the Long Island Railroad with an executive order that would have crippled this event because a quarter million people are coming through here by Sunday. And now there's mass transit flowing here. Once again, Trump coming through and the people love him on the ground. Kathy Hochul got booed three times the other day. The governor in New York, you know, they didn't care for. You know, I got to ask you this though, David. I mean, Donald Trump might be the biggest sports fan to be in the Oval Office in a very long time. He loves wrestling, he loves golf. He's obviously a big soccer fan because he's bringing the championships to the United States. I mean, that's all. He's just a huge sports fan. He wants to be involved with it. And he gets very well received. Of course, if I'm not mistaken, there's going to be a big wrestling event on the South Lawn sometime in the near future. Yeah, it looks like that's going to happen in. FIFA is located in Trump Tower. And Also Trump owns 15 golf courses. Three of them are within 60, 70 miles of here. Hudson Valley, Bedminster, New Jersey, Westchester, New York. He truly loves golf. And this is a golf course of the people. Beth Page Black. I've slept out overnight to get it, you know, a slot to play there. It's a state run public course, but, you know, I need an eraser when I play there. It's very hard. These golfers are just incredible. They're incredible. Yeah, yeah. You don't want to see me play golf, David. I can assure you of that. Anyhow, nice place to be today. Thank you for giving us an update. And you'll never see me play golf. That's what for sure. David's here. Everybody at the Ryder cup there in New York, thank you, sir. All right. Do you owe back taxes? Are your tax returns still unfiled? Did you forget to file? It happens, you know.

Plus, answers to the America's Voice question of the day. You want to hear this, too? Do you expect a conviction in jail time for James Comey's indictment? Why or why not? We'll be right back. There's Donald Trump departing the Ryder cup aboard Air Force One, about to be wheels up back to. Well, it's Friday. I don't know where he's going, actually, but there you have it. He was well received at the Ryder Cup. I mean, really well received. Air Force One made a flyover, huge response. The jets made a flyover, huge response. And then Donald Trump came out and was treated like a rock star. So you can say what you want. People seem to like him and he loves sports. So there you go. All right. What makes America wonderful? We do it every day with the hope that you'll leave the program with a smile on your face. Today's story comes to us from Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, where a nine year old is on his way to college with the hopes of becoming a pediatric neurosurgeon. Aiden Wilkins has always been described as exceptional by his parents, who recount the young one's aptitude by noting that he became enthralled with Brian with brain anatomy, that is, since he was 2 years old. He watched videos, loved it. Furthermore, Aiden aced his high school gifted exam at just 6. Smart kid. Smart kid. By the way, I don't know if I ever aced anything in high school. Although Aiden is taking high school courses, he also decided to take college courses three times a week at Ursonus College, where he hopes to be a pediatric neurosurgeon. And at the pace he's going now, the Guinness Book of World Records is keeping an eye on him to see if he could become the youngest doctor ever. Ultimately, Aiden is humble in his pursuits as he notes that he wishes to become a neurosurgeon to help out kids his age who suffer from neuro disabilities. And that pursuit, my friends, reminds us just how wonderful America is. There's an exceptional kid, right? Exceptional kid. They have not dropped the throttle yet on Air Force One. Will keep an eye on it. Here's your question of the day, by the way, while we keep an eye on that and answer the questions. Do you expect a conviction in jail time for James Comey's indictment? Why or why not? Mason Wood writes, it will depend on if the judge is woke and if the Republicans have a spine. Has nothing to do with Republicans at this point. A grand jury created the indictment, handed down a true bill. We see where it goes. John Hogan. Yes. He admitted on TV that he would give his friend information to pass on to the media because he couldn't then lie. Degrassi under oath should be a slam dunk. Susan Collins, too. I believe he lied to CTJ 1221. Unfortunately, I do not. The Democrats never seem to ever get what they deserve, which is jail time. Tom Stallings. I don't think he will be convicted. I have no trust in radical judges who are never accountable to anyone. There's some truth to that. People feel that way, that's for sure. The Gadson warrior writes, he desecrated the American system of law. Our founding fathers created and then mocked it and us in front of the world, the whole world. So, yes, he must go to prison. Well, we'll see what happens. All right, Trump now landing at Joint Base Andrews, we're told. So there you go. The president back from the Ryder Cup. I thought he was taking off, my friends. He's coming back. He, he gets around. Let's just put it that way. He gets around. All right, join me now. Eric Bolling, he'll be taking over here in a moment or two as he watches the Air Force One coming back into Joint Base Andrews. Eric, good Friday. Beautiful, beautiful sight. Isn't that a gorgeous airplane? Pretty soon it's gonna be a lot bigger. I had the opportunity ride on, on that and Air Force Two once and it's a pretty amazing experience. You know, kind of had to sit in the back, you know, the, the principal since. Yeah, it's, it's, it's, it's a wild experience. You have your own, you know, lavatories and what in the, in, in the back. And everyone has to exit the plane off the back. The president exits off that front one there. It's a. Just such a power, powerful site right there. There it is. The good friend of mine, Eric, here's a side note. A good friend of mine builds those stairs you see rolling up to the plane right there. It's called left aloft. Can you call him up again to the UN In New York and fix that escalator that broke? Maybe at the moment Melania and Donald Trump stepped onto that escalator. Pretty convenient timing on that, wasn't it? Unique timing on that. And then the teleprompter also fails. You know, I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist most days, but come on. Come on. Well, they did him a favor because whatever he was going to say, he threw that out and decided to go right off the top. Donald Head script, which is always, always better. Always better. Much more entertaining, that's for sure. Yeah, he usually gives a couple of, couple of minutes, get us all waiting in anticipations for him to make. Make the exit while we, while we have you real quick, you college football fan. I I am. Go blue. Yeah, Go blue. I, I've done very well betting on Michigan, but Alabama, Georgia, number 17 at number 5, Steve Groover. I'm liking, I'm liking Georgia at home. I'm liking the dogs at home, too. I got to be honest. The other thing that I'm watching is one of the. I'm a Tigers fan, but, boy, has it been hard to watch baseball lately. The Tigers lost. Detroit finally won a game last night against Cleveland. Yeah, the Detroit Tigers, man, they had a ten and a half game lead two weeks ago and now they're tied. Yeah, they were, they were like, they won like 13 in a row, I think. I'm not mistaken. That was a, that was a great run by them. Yeah, it was crazy run anyhow. Yeah. Donald be out in a minute here. I'm already. See, I thought he was going to go somewhere else, but apparently he's staying in Washington, at least for part of the weekend. Jba. Yeah, we'll see. I guess he'll play. He'll play. Trump National. This is an I Heart podcast.
