Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. President Trump's First Year Back: Achievements & Challenges

(03:11–12:16)

Guests:

• Brian Glenn, RAV Chief White House Correspondent

• Top Achievements

  • “One Big Beautiful Bill”
    • Made Trump's 2017 tax cuts permanent, prioritized middle-class tax relief, included significant border security measures.
    • Brian Glenn: “That one big beautiful bill, I would put it, number one biggest accomplishment back in 2025.” (03:40)
  • Border Security & Deportations
    • Aggressive enforcement, rapid decline in border crossings:
      • Eric Bolling: “Probably one of the biggest issues he had to tackle from day one was that border. And he solved it in a matter of weeks…” (04:44)
  • Energy & Inflation
    • Emphasized deregulation and increased drilling, leading to lower oil prices (from $108 down to $50–$60), and significant reduction in inflation.
      • Bolling: “Bringing oil prices down from 108 or $9 high during the Biden administration... Bring it down to where we are now... and a third of the inflation from 9 down to 3. I think that is a major, major thing…” (05:05)

• Inflation – Progress Yet to Make

  • Glenn acknowledged ongoing struggles with insurance and healthcare costs (07:48), calling for further reductions, especially for “big ticket” items:
    • “When you start talking about insuring a family of four with health insurance on auto insurance, forget about it. That is eating into that monthly paycheck for sure.” (07:49)

• Bolling’s Proposal: Corporate Accountability

    • “...just embarrass them, say your prices are coming down, your costs are coming down, but your prices haven't, and embarrass them to get their prices down.” (08:03)

(09:06–11:46)

All right, folks, Happy New Year. It's a New Year's Day and my first guest is our own RAV Chief White House correspondent Brian Glenn, who joins us to recap President Trump's first 1111 so months in office and maybe look forward to see what we have in store for us going forward over the next 12 months, if not further. Thank you for being here, Brian. Give us a sense.

[C]

Happy New Year.

[A]

Happy New Year, my friend. Give us a sense of what you think the, let's call it the top three achievements President Trump has delivered to the American people.

[C]

It's almost like, by the way, happy New Year, everyone watching us at home, it seems like he was almost already working as soon as the election was confirmed back in November. And he's already laid a bunch of stuff out in advance. But I got to say, first off the top is the one big beautiful bill and what was included in that. And we would on the campaign show, Eric, President Trump often talked about these Trump tax cuts that would need to be extended that were going to expire. They were going to sunset, if you will. So in this one big beautiful bill, you had all this stuff in here to basically make sure that the, the middle class didn't get hammered with taxes and that we had those tax cuts continue. And of course, the border security as well is another big issue. Probably one of the biggest issues he had to tackle from day one was that border. And he solved it in a matter of weeks, I think it was about a month actually before he really saw a dramatic withdrawal on that. But I think that one big beautiful bill, I would put it, number one biggest accomplishment back in 2025.

[A]

And so big beautiful bill, border, I guess deportations we can throw in there. I would, I would agree with you on the border. I call that number one for me. I'm not sure I love the big beautiful bill. I know he does. I'm not sure I love that. But I do think that his, his second big achievement was he immediately started to bring oil prices down. Now you might say, how does, how does the President do that? Well, he does it by opening up drilling, does it by allowing more drilling permits. He removes the restrictions on certain types of drilling. He certainly opened the door for more fracking. I think bringing oil prices down from 108 or $9 high during the Biden administration, which by the way, I truly believe was a reason for 9% inflation. Bring it down to where we are now, you know, you know, 50, $60 range and a third of the inflation from 9 down to 3. I think that is a major, major thing. I hope he uses it going into, into the election in 2026. So your thoughts on the inflation side of things? We could be better, but it's still getting better.

[C]

Yeah, it's getting better and I think sometimes we, we expect things to happen overnight, Eric. And you know, the economic, the markets don't necessarily reflect immediately, so all the tariffs that, that were brought in, all the business that will be brought back here in the states, it does take time to get those factories built, hire those people, get that income flowing into the local communities where these people live. So it's going to take a little bit time on, on that respect. But as far as the short term, you're absolutely right. Getting fuel prices down affects everything. And, and you know, his whole drill baby drill kind of slogan that he came up with that you know, really unleashed a lot of potential for, for drilling, new, new leases and things like that and also just put a little bit more sovereignty and a little bit more confidence in the market and you're better off than anybody to talk about that. The cop, the market wants confidence, especially in terms of energy and where it seems to think it's going and that does affect, affect the affordability of everything is oil. So I think inflation. Now granted we talked about this during the Christmas time when you have double digit inflation on everything and I mean everything from, from your loaf of bread to your gallon of milk to your car insurance to your homeowners and everything was outrageous and he had to tackle that. And one of the things he talks about was eggs and I know it's kind of a low hanging fruit to talk about, but the egg prices he was able to bring down significantly. And Brooke Rollins is an amazing job in her department. But inflation continues to be something that people talk about and I think it's going to be, I think it's going to settle in this year. I really do. And of course, it's come way down. We can't argue with that about that. But I do think he's going to put a little bit more control on it and we'll start to see the prices of everything come down. I'd like to see, personally, I would like to see auto insurance. I like to see things like that. Health insurance premiums, I'd like to see that come way down. That's the kind of stuff, that's the big ticket items, Eric, that really cripple a household.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Food costs, things like that, fuel costs, I get it. That's consumable everyday stuff. But when you start talking about insuring a family of four with health insurance on auto insurance, forget about it. That is, that is eating into that monthly paycheck for sure.

[A]

We tried to get into getting into the president. I tried to via Bannon and I said, why don't we, why doesn't he just grab a group of, I don't know, 200 of the top titans in business. When I say titans in business, I'm talking about the people who sell. The top people at Walmart, Target insurance companies, everyone where the cost of living has, has risen even as inflation is coming down. It hasn't come down the cost of living. All those companies that sell things to the American consumer and get them in an east east room and just, just embarrass them, say your prices are coming down, your costs are coming down, but your prices haven't, and embarrass them to get their prices down. That I'm telling you, with oil prices where they are right now, there's a lot of fat that they could be turning over to the American people. I'll tell you what, if you're in the White House with them at some point, say, hey, you know, Bolling's got a good idea for you might listen this time. Let me ask you, listening to me, Sir? Yeah, yeah. 2026 this year, midterm elections. What are your, what are your thoughts about that? How does this play out?

[C]

Well, I know President Trump and he announced this back a few weeks ago that he was going to hit the road. He did. If you remember, we went to Pennsylvania with them for the economic rally that he had there in the Pocono Valley area. I see him doing more of that. I was told by Trump officials that he was. Once we get into the kind of the swing of the 2026 midterms, where really people really start to campaign, the messaging starts to go forward, I think you're Going to see him out on the road at least maybe once a week, which seems like a lot, but he's used to that coming off the 2024 campaign trail. So you're going to see more, more of Trump out in, in the community. And I think he's better, Eric, in that element with the people. Remember the drive thru at McDonald's, remember going to the pizza parlor, remember going to the coffee shops, remember going to Chick Fil, a restaurant in Atlanta, in the heart of Atlanta. He is best in those settings relating to people, talking to them, having some fun with them though that type of content goes a long way. At the same time, if people are seeing their day to day lives improved by the cost of goods coming down and services coming down, that is a winning solution to getting the midterms. I truly believe that. I think you spend far less time on domestic, I'm sorry on foreign policy. Even though he, I do understand his logic on that, that you've got to make sure the world's in order to offset any type of disruption in, in the prices here. I get that. I totally get that. But when it comes to getting people to the polls in 2026 peace treaties would not get them off their butt. To do that you have got to show them economic value and what you bring to, to, to do this administration to people running for Congress and for in the Senate. So go out in the communities, do these fun little OTRs off the records. Go do all of that. Keep the border secure, keep the world in check, make sure we don't have missiles flying across and you know, keep, you know what's. You're going to see a term described here a lot coming up and it's a D and that is a, you know, an acronym. It's basically domestic terror organization. Okay. We got to make sure we keep all of that in check. But Eric, you know what it takes for people to go out and vote? It's how is their quality of life? They feel safe? Are they making money? Are they enjoying their family? And I think those three, those I have the four M's, Munchkins, mortgage and marriage. And then you could motor vehicles. I threw one in a couple weeks ago. Make sure you lock those three M's down and you'll win these elections.

[A]

There you go. Brian, I was going to ask you about 2028, especially with that Vanity Fair article a couple of weeks ago or had Susie Wiles who I believe is very smart and didn't get hoodwinked by the media. I think she was hooking the media where she, she kind of put it, pitted JD Vance against Marco Rubio. We'll do this another time, my friend, because I think that will be an interesting, interesting topic going going forward. Brian, really good having you. Happy New Year. And best to your fiance, Marjorie Taylor Greene. Thank you so much, Brian.

[C]

Thank you. Happy New Year.

All right, folks, motivation is cheap. It shows up when things are easy but disappears the minute the second they get hard. Purpose. Quite a different thing. Purpose doesn't care how you feel, doesn't wait for perfect conditions. It keeps moving when motivation quits. If you're relying on motivation, you're already losing. If you're anchored to purpose, you don't stop. Purpose beats motivation. Motivation fades. Purpose compounds. Build your purpose and watch your whole life tighten up.

Fearless Rev Reporter correspondent who always brings us the very, very latest from the border and elsewhere. Happy to have Oscar L. Blue Ramirez with us. Oscar, you were recently on the border of Venezuela and I think in Colombia, Venezuela, if I'm not mistaken, where cartel members were making threats against you. They told you stay on that side of the border or else Trump's launched an airstrike into Venezuela. Let's just take a quick look at that. Look, Venezuela did terrible things in the United States. They sent hundreds of thousands of people, millions of people, into our open border. They sent their criminals, they sent their prisoners, they sent their drug dealers, they sent their mentally insane and incompetent people into our country more than any other country. Others did do. The Congo did. Others did too. And we just let him come right in because we were run by a stupid president. But you don't have a stupid president anymore. And so Oscar Trump went on to say that he struck some area in Venezuela that they believed there was a it was a shipment or a warehouse for massive amounts of narcotics that Tren Delaragua was storing. What do you know? What are you hearing? Does this airstrike move the needle at all with Venezuela.

[D]

Yes, Eric, thank you for the invitation. We were right there at the border and as I told you, there was a lot of tensions with the National Guard and every single border that we visited on these borders that they're connected with Venezuela. Now, what we have heard at this moment, it is that a company by the name of Primazol, Primasol, it is a company that basically expands and exports synthetic chemicals and also other appliances for basically this kind of synthetic liquids. So they're extremely close to the borderline into the dock area where these boats that they have been potentially you know, going on international waters, trafficking drugs in international waters, and they have been currently destroyed by the United States government. Now, Prima Sol, the company has already released statements that on the 24th of December there was an explosion. That is what they said. And it was contained and it was maintained by the fire department and by other resources that they came to help to contain the fires and also to contain this explosion. Now, until now, the president of Venezuela has not released a statement saying that this was an explosion, has not even commented on this current situation of this company that is called Primazol, that basically this is the company that they are speculating that it was releasing synthetic chemicals or synthetic liquids to basically construct and make fentanyl. This is a copy paste. Remember, Eric, we reported this on your show. The 12 companies of Mexico, also the Department of Treasury exposed them in Mexico that they were in cahoots with the organized crime of the cartel. These companies also, they were basically giving out synthetic liquids for the cartel to make a fentanyl. So it is kind of like exactly the same. But Primazol, the company in Venezuela, it is releasing the statement saying it has nothing to do with it, it was an explosion. But other sources, they're continuing to say that it was a strike and on this particular place, that it was basically delivering chemicals to the organized crime to basically deport on international waters.

[A]

So Oscar Trump drops a drone strike into sovereign Venezuela and Maduro, as you point out, says nothing. What's your sense? Number one, do you think he's taking this seriously? And by the way, what the people of Venezuela saying about Maduro, first, about Maduro.

[D]

Maduro is not going to say anything because if he says any something, I believe that it will be affecting him in a way and he will look weak. So in a way, he's just trying to keep quiet. He's trying to just hide this from the public and hide basically from their own government to not just expand the information in a way that the people will know that they are being now exposed and they are being attacked. And this company that certainly is saying that it was an explosion, now it is basically exposed to the United States government that they're the ones that they were trafficking liquids, Eric, to international waters and to the sense of the people. What I got every single citizen, Eric, on this border, Simon Bolivar, that it was the border that basically saw millions, millions of Venezuelans that they arrived to now to the United States of America and to Central America. Every single one, they're sick and tired and they're waiting for Donald Trump to do something. Some of them, they say, we don't have no other option by an invasion of the United States to basically destroy this government because they don't have no other option. So the majority of the people are advocating, I asked a lot of them, what do you think about Donald Trump designating Nicolas Maduro as a narco terrorist trender? I was a narco terrorist. The regime as a narco terrorist. Every single one of them says, we are all for it. We are waiting for something to happen. So the Venezuelan people have been protesting for so many years against the regime. But, you know, absolutely, the American people need to know that when a country is run by socialism, the only thing that the people have to defend themselves are rocks and sticks, like they do in Cuba. So they're just waiting for something to happen. Eric.

Oscar, you know, we had Lara Logan on the show a couple of weeks ago, and she talked about, I can't remember the name of the Venezuelan gang we know, Trendo Agua. You've mentioned yet another. Another gang operating cartel, operating gang operating within Venezuela. Is it like half? How many? Is this like a percentage of the. The citizens of Venezuela are involved in gang or cartels?

[D]

Oh, there's another gang that is extremely dangerous that is close to those south borders of Brazil that is trendable. They're the ones that they run the extraction of minerals, the gold, the trafficking of children and the trafficking of women massively in the part of the south of Venezuela. That's another one that I don't know why the Trump administration has not investigated yet. And they need to investigate profoundly so they can designate them as a terrorist organization. All these organizations, they're completely involved in what happened to the United States of America in the four years of Joe Biden. This was strategically done perfectly to destabilize every border in Central America and ultimately, at the end of the day, to destabilize the border in the United States of America. Remember, the leader of the Caravans. When we interviewed him in Tapachula Chapas, Luis Garcia Villagran told us that the majority of the people that they were on these caravans that we walked on the south border, a lot of them, they were from Trender, and every single one of them had a direct city to go to. They were already directed and signalized to go to New York, to go to Denver, to go to Miami. Why? Because this was purposely done. So these organizations, they are that, Eric, they're really organized, they're really intelligent to neglect to deny that they're part of Tender Agua, that they're part of these organizations, but they are extremely intelligent on how to operate and how to destabilize every border.

[A]

Let's take a listen to Trump, who says Venezuela sent millions of people, millions of Venezuelans across the border under Biden. Let's hear how he describes it. There was a major explosion in the dock area where they load the boats up with drugs. They load the boats up with drugs. So we hit all the boats, and now we hit the area. It's the implementation area. That's where the implement and that is no longer around. So the question, Oscar, is I see it. I, you know, again, I've supported Trump from the very beginning and never liked, you know, getting involved in these foreign conflicts. But it feels like Trump has an itchy finger pointing directly at Venezuela. We saw him drop a drone strike within sovereign borders of Venezuela. Do you think Maduro and do you think the Venezuelan people realize how close they are about getting the full force of the U.S. department of War on them?

[D]

Yes, absolutely. And, you know, to the mass migration of Venezuelans, a lot of them, they were really good people, but it was a fraction of bad people that got infiltrated and basically damaged the whole entity of a whole country that it was Trinidad. And that is the reason why the Venezuelan people are completely upset that they want to be liberated and they don't. They have tried so many times, Eric, on protests against Hugo Chavez, against, you know, Nicolas Maduro. You know, just to remember, on 2015, they protested massively, and 43 students were killed by the regime Onico Maduro. So it tells you the massive impact that this could have. And what the Venezuelan people have completely already acknowledged that the only way to remove Nicolas Maduro is by force. There's no other way. There's no negotiation. Let everybody knows that he is a terrorist. He's the leader of Cartel de los Olis. The Cartel de los Olis. It is a fraction, is a big fraction that it was created by their government. Also the United States of America. As I have said it before, never in history they have had so many intelligence under their hands. They have El Chapo Guzman, they have El Mayo Zambada under their custody that basically one of them spilled the beans on who was the one that it was controlling the whole trafficking of drugs and synthetic drugs to South America. And immediately they knew that it was Nicolas Maduro. Wow.

[A]

Cartel dictator and cartel crime boss. Very quickly, Oscar, how are you? We ask you this all the time. Any more threats? How you doing? How's your family? You feel safe?

[D]

We're doing good, Eric. Thank you for asking. You know, we're ending the year like we said, you know, during the whole year. There's no other way but to do this. We have to be outspoken. We have to, you know, go on the front lines and show the reality and the truth of the world of what we are going through. There's no other way, Eric. We have to do it like this. So, you know, you know, thanks for asking. Thanks for all the American people that they have been concerning to, all the people on the edge and all the people on Eric Bolling show. They have sent me multiple messages, you know, asking if I'm doing okay and my family is doing okay. We're doing okay right now. We're trying to safeguard ourselves. And every time that we go, we know that we are going to expose ourselves to these kind of dangers. But, you know, we always got God on our side and, you know, we're trying to do the best that we can. So thank you for asking, Eric. We're doing good.

[A]

Good, Oscar. Oscar, Very good. Good to have got on your side. Good to keep your eyes open, be vigilant, and stay out of harm's way. Oscar Ramirez, El Blue. Thank you so much. Be safe. Happy New Year.

[D]

Thank you so much. And happy New Year to all your audience. Thank you so much.

[A]

Thank you, Oscar. All right, folks, we'll be back in two and a half minutes.

Well, welcome again to 2026, folks. I talked yesterday about how much we have to do this coming year, how much work there is to be done to save this country, to fight for the future of America, to fix what eight years of Barack Obama and four years of Joe O Biden broke crime, inflation, the invasion of America. But I also want to declare this is the year of accountability. It should be sure we've been through nearly a year of another Trump presidency. He is retribution from that massive win in almost a year of actually moving the needle, nudging us into the golden age, as he calls it, this presidency, winning back the house. That really is accountability, in part for the slander for the lawfare he experienced and so many Americans did as well. That's just not enough. I think I speak for many of you, many of us, when I say it's time for action. It's time for accountability for Covid for January 6th or Irina Zarudska for the Biden mental deterioration cover up for those corrupt pardons that he issued for fraud in Minnesota, in Washington State, in Massachusetts. I'm sure we'll find out a lot more fraud out there. But where's the accountability? 2025 was a year we got America on the right track coming back. 2026 should be the year of accountability. Rinse, repeat, same cycle over and over again. We uncover leftist fraud, leftist corruption. A committee holds hearings, files are reported. We sit in shock and anger, all of us do, wondering how the corruption went so deep, so far and for so long. And then we wait. And then we wait and nothing happens. No punishment for the crux, no accountability for the victims. Instead, if we dare question any of them, they turn it around on us. They turn us into the criminals somehow.

[C]

So this is what happens when your.

[A]

Own federal government wages war against you. This is what happens when they target.

[C]

Communities for their own benefit.

[A]

This is what happens when they scapegoat. And this is what say happens when.

[C]

They no longer hide the idea of white supremacy.

[D]

When you.

[C]

You hear the Vice President, United States, talk about now white people won't have to apologize for being white. That's never happened once in my whole damn life.

[A]

And I think everybody in this room.

[C]

Knows what they're doing. So we're here today to say enough of this.

[A]

We're here today to stand that Minnesota.

[C]

Will protect their neighbors.

[A]

Really?

[C]

Really.

[A]

Tampon. Timmy. Because I remember the Summer of George. Summer of Love. George Floyd. Remember that? Where white liberals were kneeling all over the place, bowing to the altar of Black Lives Matter. I would say that's what we're talking about, Timmy. Tim Walls. Because investigating a crime means you're a racist. That's really where we are right now, right? You want to see what it looks like to be conquered or conquered man when you're no longer an American serving the American people in earnest. Tim Walls. Don't worry. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry can show you exactly also what that looks like. Maga Egawa Jacob Fry.

[B]

Dokima Gallada, Minneapolis.

[A]

Damaan, Shaabka, Somalia. Kayemid, Mogadishu. Ghettoe.

[B]

Hargeza, Bosaso, Beidabo, Kismayo, Wahan. Rabah in an Idin Shego, Minneapolis. Wa Magaladina, Wahad, Khamid, Tihin, Laf Dabarka. Cutting off an entire diaspora from its roots doesn't keep anyone safe. It only deepens division at a time when connection is more important than ever.

[A]

You absolute, you're conquered. Minneapolis is a pretty diverse city, okay. Of which 6% are Somali. Around 58 to 61% are white, black and African American populations make up 16 to 19%. Asians around 5 to 6%. Why doesn't Jacob Fry worry about how the massive corruption being uncovered affects his many other constituents? Not just the small Somalis, how they're being deprived of the benefits. The rest of that group, other than that Somali group and their hard earned tax dollars being stolen. $9 billion at last take that doesn't serve his behind the scenes masters, I guess. Will there be any, any accountability at all with these people in charge? Highly unlikely. And that should no longer stand going forward. On his way out, Joe Biden preemptively pardoned several family members, including his brothers, his sister. Oh yeah, and Hunter Biden, his son, which he vowed never to pardon earlier in his presidency. Remember that? Even his sister and brother in law he pardoned. What's his excuse? Well, use the excuse of the very same lawfare that he and his comrades inflicted on President Trump and maga. So they did it to Trump, but they don't want return to them. Typical. That would be accountability. That would be retribution. Biden family corruption unanswered for. Pardoned. No retribution, no accountability. He also pardoned Anthony Fauci. Someone who not only inflicted great pain on this country through as many lies. Right? Science. Trust the science. Remember that? All bs. But also killed millions of Americans and others by having a big hand in bringing Covid to America. He was partly responsible for that lab leak in Wuhan that brought Covid around the world, but certainly to America. Or a million Americans died. Thanks Fauci. Don't worry, you're pardoned. He lied about that under oath. Remember that with Rand Paul. And somehow he's getting more than $400,000 per year to sit under a coconut tree and laugh about how he destroyed lives. Pardoned. No retribution, no accountability. The shambolic House January 6th investigative committee wasted millions upon millions of tax dollars. Set up trials distract from the real problems in the country being created by Sir Naps Biden and his Marxist cabinet. Pardoned. No retribution, no accountability. Right now we're uncovering more and more of the left's corruption by the day. More and more just in Minnesota and more and more in other really blue cities in the United States and states around the country where the upper governments in those places either supported and condoned the corruption or looked the other way for fear of being called racist. Right. Minnesota. The left's obsession with identity politics paid for by the American taxpayer. When do we actually say enough is enough? When do we actually do enough? Something about it hold someone accountable, throw some of their butts in jail. I know for a fact that Americans are sitting at home right now thinking to ourselves, here we go again. More leftist crime and corruption and nothing will come of it. Just words. No actions, accountability, retribution. We'll be back. Two and a half minutes. The radical left knows exactly what they're doing. They want to steal the election. We're going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard. Events in Washington have taken a violent and tumultuous.

[D]

To be bob.

[A]

January 6th wasn't just a moment in history for thousands of Americans, it was the moment their voices were taken. It's insurrection. They were persecuted, hunted, seditious, conspiracy.

[B]

But behind prison walls, something unexpected happened.

[A]

They they found their voice again, started singing the national anthem. We took it up to him at Mar a Lago. He goes, I'll put my voice on it. Our supporters made this go platinum. Real America's voice is telling the real.

[B]

Story of January 6th like you've never seen it before.

[A]

Everybody, this must be peaceful. This is not the story you were shown. I take responsibility.

[B]

This is the story they lived government entrapment scheme that this actually was.

[A]

The J6 Patriots are no longer staying silent. They are speaking.

[B]

They are standing and they are telling the truth.

[A]

You can't kill us.

[B]

You can't beat us.

[A]

They tried to silence them. Instead they woke up an entire nation.

Q U-E-T.com Spinquest is a free to play social casino void where prohibited. Visit spinquest.com for more details. So when we look back at 2025, it's kind of hard to pick out the CR this moment coming from the Democrat Camp. There were so many of them. It goes on. Aoc, Jasmine Crockett, Elon Omar Tampon, Timmy Walls, Kamala Harris. Lunatic nut jobs. After all, they spent a lot of time yelling and inciting violence, calling half of America racist, fascist, assaulting federal officers, claiming President Trump is a dictator for being democratically elected and. And then doing what he promised to do. Exactly what he promised to do. One moment just seemed to outdo the next. But if I had to choose. Well, here are some of our favorites. I guess my favorites are let's take a trip down crazy Democrat memory lane together, shall we? To start with that walking commercial for Depends diapers, Senator Cory Booker, who stood on the House floor and spoke Nonstop for nearly 26 hours. Actually, the exact official timing of his tantrum rant. 25 hours, 5 minutes, 59 seconds. What's the matter, Corey? Couldn't make it the last a little more 54 minutes and 1 second. Watch some of this Democratic Party needs a wake up call.

[C]

I see law firms bending a knee.

[A]

To this president, not caring about the larger principles that those free speech rights that you could take on any client.

[C]

Why? Why are you bending the knee?

[A]

I see universities that should be bastions.

[C]

Of free speech bending at the knee to this president.

[A]

I see businesses taking late night talk show hosts off the air because they dare to insult a president. And dear God, if you want to come at me that way, you're going.

[C]

To have to take it up with.

[A]

Me because there's too much on the line right now in America.

[D]

As people's.

[A]

Due process rights and freedom of the.

[C]

Speech rights and secret police are running around this country.

[A]

We got to take it up with you, Corey. Ooh, we're scared. We're a scared. By the way, he wore Depends. I'm not just making that up. He wore Depends because he knew he was going to talk for a long time. I mean, how disgusting is that man right there?

[C]

Ew.

[A]

I don't even want to take it up with you. I don't want to get near you peeing in your own pants. Adult diapers this year was rife with Democrats defending illegals. But even more so, it seemed they were hell bent on defending ones who actually committed crimes. Like their favorite domestic abuser, gang banger Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who a judge just insisted be released yet again. Go figure. By the way, the charges against this guy include domestic assault, human trafficking, solicit solicitation of child pornography. You know, how much more can this guy do where Democrats stop defending him and judges Stop letting him out of jail. Exactly the kind of person you would expect this party, the Democrats, to admire and protect. And Jamie Raskin, the Democrat, found it hard to weasel his way out of supporting a known criminal. First of all, I don't know of a single Democrat who defended him specifically against any crimes. Oh, really? How about you and Chris Murphy and the rest of them that went over and hung out with him? Van. Van. Margarita Holland. That's right, Chris Van Margherita Holland, who actually broke bread with Garcia, actually had the gall to suggest that the President, President Trump, owes this repeat criminal child pornography some sort of apology. You know, I will never apologize for defending the Constitution. In fact, it's the Trump administration on all his cronies who should apologize to the country for putting us through this unnecessary situation and to Brago Garcia for putting him through this situation and his family. We put you through it. So this criminal, Trump wanted to deport him, they deported him, they brought him back, and then he goes to jail for being a criminal. But somehow we're wrong and you're right. Democrats, you want to let them all out. They just love letting criminals out of jail at the expense and at the safety of American citizens. But one of the most America hating members of Congress, Elon Omar, has had plenty of low and disgusting moments that prove just how much she deserves that title. This lying, hateful monster that has no place in this country, let alone as a representative in our own U.S. congress. But in the days following Charlie Kirk's murder, she let her evil shine right through her turban more than ever. And on the day before his funeral at that. Listen, what I find jarring is that.

[D]

There are so many people willing to excuse the most reprehensible things that he said.

[A]

But I am not going to sit here and be judged for not wanting to honor any legacy this man has left behind. That should be in the dustpin of history and we should hopefully move on.

[D]

And forget the hate that he sees.

[A]

Spewed every single day. Somalian Elon Omar, who protects the Somalians, who've stole $9 billion from the people of Minnesota, and yet she has the gall to have those comments about Charlie Kirk the day before his. His funeral, his memorial service. That is a vile, disgusting woman, to say the least, coming from a vile, disgusting human being, to say the least. If we can call her that, maybe a cockroach. Please leave this country. Obviously, obviously you hate it so much, just leave. Elon Omar, you. You made your $40 million. You've done it. You came in broke negative net worth. And you and your husband are worth $40 million. Not the husband, your brother that you married to give him citizenship. The husband that you kind of married or whatever to steal people's money. Garbage. Garbage, folks. The lowest form of Democrat people like her, Eric Swalwell, who now thinks he's worthy of being the governor of California because he's done so many great things as congressman. Actually, after Gavin Newsom, maybe they're not impossible shoes to fill after all for this imbecile. As the president continued throughout the year in trying to put together a peaceful deal for Russia and Ukraine. Stop spending money over there. This Eric Swalwell, this lover of Chinese spies, Fang Fang, remember her? He was married. She was a Chinese spy. They got together. Actually said this without a hint of irony. I don't know if Donald Trump is.

[D]

Or is not a Russian asset.

[A]

I do know that at press conferences like this and like at Helsinki, he certainly acts like one. And that is cold comfort for anyone.

[D]

In the United States, particularly in our.

[A]

Military, that the commander in chief would be so flattering of and so charming to a ruthless dictator like, well, Congressman Swallow. Trump is not a Russian asset. But you are a Chinese asset. I would say this video of the treason is. James Comey is so cringy that people were convinced it was the making of AI. They thought it was fake. Well, it's not fake. I'll spare you the full five minutes of Comey's confession of being a Swifty Taylor Swift. Swifty in the face of the Trump presidency. Taylor Swift and I go way back. I went to my first concert of hers 15 years ago. I've been to a second, and I have helped financially support the attendance of a lot of family members. At others, I'm in a family's Swifty group chat. I know all her music, and I listen to it in my headphones when I cut the grass.

[C]

Thank you, Taylor Swift.

[A]

Keep the faith. So you oversaw two of your agents. When you're director of the FBI, two of your agents. Talk about making sure Trump wasn't elected president. Within the FBI, texting each other. And you didn't catch it. You didn't get rid of them, but you were too busy going to Taylor Swift concerts. Got it, got it, got it. You know what? You and Travis Kelsey, two of the same losers. Earlier this year, Gavin Newsom was caught in a whopper of a lie when he claimed that President Trump never reached out to him. Unfortunately for Gavin, the president provided proof of the call. So Gavin lied, but it's not the first time this year that Newscomb lied about a call with the president. Remember this one from January? Literally talking to the president right now to specifically answer the question of what we can do for you and your daughter. Can I hear it? Can I hear your call?

[B]

Because I don't believe it.

[A]

I'm sorry. There's literally. I've tried five times. That's why I'm walking around to make. I'm literally. I'm literally on the call with the President Biden right now. She says prove it. Oh, well, you know, I've been trying to call him. He's just not answering. Do they. It's incredible. They just do it so easily. Just lie. And with cameras rolling like we're not going to call them on it. We're not going to realize what freaking liars they are. It's incredible. How do we elect these people? Why does that guy think he's. Well, you know, he probably is equipped to be a Democrat president. He probably is. If you can let the lie roll off your tongue like that. I guess maybe he's got something there.

I do. This is Kevin from Cleveland, wants to know what we're focusing on.

[A]

Hey, this is Kevin from Cleveland, Ohio. I thought we were done giving money to Zelinsky and I'm seeing they're giving him more money and you know, Trump is promising us $2,000 a piece and it's ridiculous how much money he's given to these other countries. What happened to America first, Donald and you know what? I hate the Democrats. My party. What are they doing for the midterms? We're going to lose those because they're you're not focusing on it. They're focusing on other bull. Thank you, Eric. By okay, well, welcome to 2026.

[C]

Hello.

[A]

I think you're right. I think you're right. What are we focusing on? We haven't seen any accountability. We haven't seen any perp walks. We haven't even seen any jail time for any of these people that definitely have earned that or certainly have earned the investigations into it. I don't know. I don't, I don't know why we keep talking about giving foreign entities money. It's got to stop. We already spent 180 or $200 billion on illegals who've come over. That should stop. Stop giving them stuff. They'll stop coming, probably. And, and this for these, these foreign aids. $250 billion already to Ukraine. He's asking for more. Why are we doing any of this stuff? It's insane. We have people who are having a hard time making ends meet. We have military folks who are living free. Check to check. Take care of America. That's what America first is. I agree with you, sir. Agree with you wholeheartedly. I don't point a finger, but come on, guys, let's go. You're gonna get smoked in the midterms if you don't. Telling you. I'm telling you. We're gonna, we're gonna lose badly in the midterms unless you start throwing some people in jail and stop giving foreign countries money that frankly don't even give a shit about us. Sorry.

[D]

Mad Dog, this is Lisa Myers. Has a sheriff recommendation.

[A]

Hi, Eric, this is Lisa Myers. I am a runaway from California to Texas. And I just was watching your show and you were talking about the sheriff that's running for governor there and how great he is. But I just wanted to let you know that he actually knelt down with blm. I know that's not a deal breaker, but there's another guy that's running that's actually, I think, better than him and better on policy, and that is Steve Hilton. Just want to let you know that. Thank you so much. Bye. Hey, thank you. And thank you for the call and thank you for leaving California. I don't blame you. Yeah, so when you called, I looked into that and actually asked that question, Sheriff Bianca, and I think the answer was good enough. Here's my issue. I agree. Steve Hilton's a great guy. I used to work with him at Fox. I know him very, very well. I just love the idea of a 35 year year Sheriff with military experience running the state of California. I think he'll do it. I have a hard time watching that video of him kneeling with blm, which I hadn't seen until. Sherry, you called, so thank you for that. And yeah, we'll, we'll, we'll see how it progresses. But it definitely did take a little bit of the luster off my push for Sheriff Chad Bianco. However, you know, Realistically, I think he's got the best chance of winning. And I think you, I think that's behind him. It's, it's an era that a lot of people got caught up in. We certainly didn't. I didn't. A lot of people did and hopefully they've learned, learned their lesson, which is exactly what he, he said. He, he did. So, so to speak. I'm not sure that's a good enough answer for you, but I, I just think he has the best chance of beating a Democrat. That's why Mad Dog.

This is Richard Morgan's thoughts on dei.

[A]

Eric, this is Richard Morgan from Pike Road, Alabama, a retired army warrant officer. I'm just wondering why there haven't been law brought concerning dei, which is reverse discrimination. Also, I hope Trump quits funding all of these private universities that have billions of dollars in their trust funds. Thank you. First of all, thank you for your service. Thank you for our freedom. Yeah, good, good. I'm not sure you can prosecute people who push DEI for reverse discrimination. Mostly because our, our Congress are our wussies. They're afraid of their own shadow, afraid of going anything too pro white or anti min authority. So it doesn't really, it's tough for them to, to get the cojones up to do it. I'm not sure they can, they can prosecute Di's reserve reverse discrimination. I don't remember what this. Matt, what was the second part of that question? You remember.

Richard Morgan's thoughts on dei?

[A]

Yeah. The second part of that will. Play it again.

[D]

I'll play it again.

Eric, this is Richard Morgan from Pike Road, Alabama, a retired army warrant officer. I'm just wondering why there haven't been laws brought concerning dei, which is reverse discrimination. Also, I hope Trump quits funding all of these private universities that have billions of dollars in their trust funds. Thank you. Yeah, that's right. You're right. He tried, remember he tried with Harvard. He tried to stop funding Harvard. Harvard's got $50 billion in their endowment. Not only that, they get tax benefits. Harvard doesn't pay taxes on a lot of the, the profits that they're in essence major hedge funds. So Harvard trades their $50 billion endowment as a hedge fund. And they're not taxed at the same level, maybe not even taxed at all. So they have huge advantages. They don't need government support, they don't need government help. So Trump tries to pull the money saying it's, they were discriminatory the way they hired people, hired teachers and also the way they took in students, they were showing that white students with higher GPAs and higher test scoring across the board were being ignored for people who are minorities. So they were jumping. So Trump tried to pull it and a judge blocked. Trump's blocking their, their money. So you got activist judges out there. That's why elections are so important. They have consequences far beyond what everything you see on tv. Especially, especially the high bench, the Supreme Court, and these judges throughout the country that the President appoints, you know, they go through the vetting process, but the President appoints is a very, very important job that sometimes is overlooked. I don't like Mitch McConnell. Never like Mitch McConnell. But the one thing he did, he had vision throughout his whole career, that the federal bench, the benches around the country were super important. Putting conservatives in those seats. I don't think he's a real conservative. I think he's a rhino. But that's the one thing he did right. Got one more. Mad dog.

Yes, sir. This is Rosie. She thinks you have a crush.

[A]

Hi, Eric, this is Rosie from Arizona. And I gotta say, you must have a crush on Jasmine Crockett because you're always playing so many of her clips and I can't stand listening to her. And I know you're probably not going to listen to me and going to keep on playing them, but anyway, I don't usually call in on these kind of shows, but I just had to say that. So anyway, have a great day. Bye. Bye. Okay, all right, so let's break this down. Jasmine Crockett's attractive woman, I'll give her that. She's just a brain dead idiot. She's a. I play it and I play it a lot because she says a lot of dumb things. And I think the people of Texas right now need to understand that if you're going to vote for that woman as your next senator, you better understand what she's all about in all these comments. She shows her racism. She shows her. Her anti conservative. She hates maga. Hates maga. So be sure who you're voting for. It really, really matters, especially on the Senate level. District representative, House of Representatives, Congress, not so much. One of the center. You represent the full state of Texas and then the United States at times. No crush, though. No crush whatsoever. Folks, that's it. I had a great start to the year. We're looking forward to seeing you tomorrow. Stick around. Keep sending the voice. Voicemails. Subscribe to the Edge.
