Kerry Lake (2:30)

Well, I'm just speaking on my personal capacity and I agree with President Trump. He does work his butt off every day for the good of this country. We've seen things turn around places where people were struggling when it came to the economy, when it came to the invasion at our border. We've seen all of this turnaround really quickly because he is working hard. So he is not a king. He is just an incredible president, probably the best our country's history. But I actually see some of the protests because I'm living here in Washington, D.C. and I had to walk down near the Mall and had to kind of walk through some of it. And it was the. There was nothing cool about it. It was. I agree. I think this is kind of the last generation, a lot of older people, the boomers. It's the last generation of people who actually, I think, still believe what the TV tells them. They still believe, you know, in the news and the New York Times, in 60 minutes and all of that. They have been brainwashed so badly over the years and they just haven't kind of woken up from that. But then I also think there's an element, and you mentioned it and so did President Trump, where there's the rent a mob, the rent a rioter, the rent a protester that comes with it, and that's through some of these NGOs and other potentially soros funded outlets out there. You could see the organization. When I was walking by, there was a tent where they were signing people up to get involved in other events and other things. So I think there could be other events like it. But it was very underwhelming compared to what we've seen in the past. Extremely underwhelming. A lot of weird people there, a lot of strange things that we saw. We saw one woman just walking nude through the crowd. I think it was a woman, I couldn't really tell. And, and just bizarre behavior by a lot of people.

Eric Bolling (4:20)

It's amazing that the typical protester is like, I would say, you know, middle aged white person. They're protesting anti antifa and almost like they're supporting, I don't know, minorities and whatnot. And it seems to be very, very liberal white Americans who are doing it. There is a website, there was a young, like a video journalist who went to a bunch of these and was asking people, you know, who they work for. And a lot of them literally had idea they were hired by, there's a name of a group, Go Blue or Code Blue or something like that, who are paying the bills for organized protesters. And they, they, there's nothing inside, Kerry. They're not protesting things, beliefs, things that they believe in. They're being paid to do this. It's, it's, it just has to at least somehow sometime fizzle out. Unless there's an ample pool of money.

Kerry Lake (5:11)

Can you even imagine, Eric? I mean, I just, I have more respect for myself. I'm not ruled by the almighty dollar. And there's better ways to living than to go protest something you don't even know what you're protesting. And they give vapid answers. They don't know what they're talking about. They don't know what they're protesting. It's like, have a little self respect. There's other ways to make a buck than going to a protest that you don't believe and you don't know anything about. But, you know, the brainwashing has been pretty hardcore for the past many decades and it's really ramped up over the past 10 years. Anti TRUMP rhetoric that has been just vile. I saw somebody with the sign saying that the President Trump was Satan and the Antichrist. I mean, when you're pushing that kind of absolute negativity and lies that, that really can incite violence. And we've seen it coming primarily from the left, and they have not calmed down or cooled down at all in their rhetoric.

Eric Bolling (6:11)

You're hearing them something. First of all, the vile nature of those, the posters that they're the F bomb is all over those post F bomb Trump, F bomb ice and whatnot, all over. Young kids see this stuff. But it's kind of fascinating to me to watch fascism, and they call themselves anti fascism, antifa anti fascism, and they're using fascist tactics. If you say something, you speak words in America, you're protected by the First Amendment. But if you're speaking words that they don't agree with, now they kill you. Charlie Kirk tried to assassinate Trump twice, maybe a third time. They found something near the Palm beach airport here. So they'll kill you for your word. That is fascism defined?

Kerry Lake (6:55)

Oh, truly. I mean, it's always opposite day when you get the radical radicals on the far left. I think many times it hinges on communism. What we're seeing in this country. And you know, in the last administration, we did see elements of that where the government was getting involved, pressuring companies to take away our rights. The government knew that they couldn't take away our rights. So they would pressure. Put pressure on social media companies, et cetera, to take away our First Amendment rights. And we saw this when it came to banking and many other issues as well. So it's always opposite day. Whatever they're saying, you know, you can just kind of. They're either projecting or you can just go the opposite way is what they really mean.

Eric Bolling (7:35)

Take a look at this. Trump adviser Alex Bruskowicz posted a picture of Trump dressed as a king. Alex states on this post on Instagram, it has 10.5 million views and over 6 million views on Facebook. He goes on to say The Democrats posted 14 no Kings videos on Instagram, which collectively didn't reach 2 million views. Seems like a sign that liberal Democrats are losing favor with America. I know this. This one just tweaks their ear. It just flicks their ear so badly. Trump as can obviously aig.

Donald Trump (8:05)

That's a.

Kerry Lake (8:06)

And that's a really good point that Alex made. I mean, Alex is brilliant. That's a great point. And that just goes to show, I think President Trump kind of touched on it. This movement that they say they have is minuscule. The. The polling is not accurate. The people are with the America first agenda, the make Americ again agenda that, you know, take the politics out. Democrat, Republican, Independent, I don't care. Are you for our country improving, getting set back on the right track, heading in the right direction. A strong economy, safe borders, safe streets, you know, the ability to find jobs. And I have to compete with people here illegally. Having people, you know, deported who have come in. Are you for that? And the vast majority of Americans are. That's why we're seeing that, those kind of numbers, people sharing that versus, what do you say, 14 different messages that went out for the no Kings people, and they got less than 2 million views. That's. That says a lot about what. Where the country really, really is. They are firmly with President Trump because he is firmly for our country.

Eric Bolling (9:15)

There is. There's also this. You know, we saw this. I believe it was Sunday, Saturday, Sunday, that the FBI had located. They're investing a hunting stand that was set with a direct line of sight to Air Force One when Trump lands in Palm Beach. What do you think of that?

Kerry Lake (9:32)

Oh, man, I saw that and I. The blood just, like, drained out of my. I just, like, went cold. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It's like these people will stop at nothing. Now. I know the FBI is investigating. We don't know what is really going on with that, but we need to Protect the president at all costs. I don't know if something needs to happen with the stairs that come off of Air Force Force One, if they need to have bulletproof glass or, you know, protection put around it. I'm very concerned because of the level of violence that we've seen from this vicious, vicious, anti Trump push that has been pushed on people who are deranged. And I'm very concerned that we make sure that we're protecting our president. It's vitally important, and I hope that the Secret Service, I'm sure they are on top of it. I know that Sean, who is the head of the Secret Service, is, takes this job very seriously. But the world is counting on us keeping President Trump safe. And there's a lot of sick, deranged, awful, evil people out there.

Eric Bolling (10:39)

Indeed. Indeed. Kerry, last time you were here, you said you were having a bit of a hard time getting rid of some of the, the, let's call it lots of the dead weight at Voice of America and others that you oversee. For some reason, a judge stopped you from firing these people who you. We believe you have a constitutional right to do that. Tell us where that stands.

Kerry Lake (10:59)

Well, obviously, we're in the shutdown right now. That's why I'm just appearing today as Citizen Lake. But, you know, a lot of the government has been shut down because the Democrats refused to open it up. And, you know, so a lot of things are just kind of stalled in place right now. Even, even when it comes to a court happenings in court. We've got six cases. Everything's just kind of stuck and stalled right now. And it's unfortunate how these district court judges think that they were the duly elected president and are trying to take away the ability of the duly elected president in a massive landslide mandate to do his job and to take away his Article 2 powers. So we'll see where it goes when the government opens up, what happens. But we're working hard and we every day keep the American taxpayer at the front of our mind, and we're fighting for the American taxpayer.

Donald Trump (11:53)

All right.

Eric Bolling (11:54)

Well, Kerry Lake, we appreciate you, and we appreciate you doing that and keeping an eye out for the American people. Thank you so much.

Kerry Lake (12:00)

Thanks, Eric.

Eric Bolling (12:01)

Kerry Lake (14:24)

Hey, this is Sarah. Look, I'm standing out front of a.m. p.m. Right now and, well, you're sweet and all, but I found something more fulfilling. Even kind of cheesy. But I like it. Sure, you met some of my dietary needs, but they've just got it all. So farewell, oatmeal. So long, you strange soggy.

Donald Trump (14:42)

Break up with bland breakfast and taste AM PM's bacon, egg and cheese biscuit.

Eric Bolling (14:46)

Made with K tree eggs, smoked bacon.

Donald Trump (14:48)

And melty cheese on a buttery biscuit.

Eric Bolling (14:50)

AM P M. Too much.

Donald Trump (14:51)

Good stuff.

Eric Bolling (14:57)

Alrighty, folks. There it is, the East Room of the White House. Just off to the side, side of the actual White House. Attached to it. We're waiting for President Trump. He's going to talk a little bit about this, a little bit of that. I believe it's an LSU baseball, if I'm not mistaken. But we will get to it again, the man loves our hour. We love to share it with the president as well. All right, folks, take a look at this.

Donald Trump (15:17)

That in the 555 challenge, it was.

John Jubilee (15:21)

Bone on bone and one knee to the point of needing a knee replacement.

Eric Bolling (15:25)

And also high blood pressure.

John Jubilee (15:26)

Those are my two big whys.

Herschel Walker (15:29)

Lost 30 pounds of fat.

John Jubilee (15:30)

I'm 59 years old, and I just want to let you know, now, back.

Eric Bolling (15:34)

To martial arts three times a week.

John Jubilee (15:36)

Back in a gym with a personal.

Donald Trump (15:38)

Trainer three times a week.

Eric Bolling (15:39)

And what happened with your high blood pressure back to normal?

John Jubilee (15:42)

I didn't want to be 70 and not being able to get off the couch.

Eric Bolling (15:45)

Oh, didn't want to be that guy. It's nice to be able to get your life back to the extent that you're doing things you love again. Well, look at that. Another. Another. Look at another happy, energized health client. And he's not alone. A lot of people are, are dealing with complex issues. High blood pressure, joint pain, weight gain, brain fog. And they're treating each one separately. But is that the right way to take care of yourself? Here to give us some insight is the founder of Energized Health, John Jubilee. So some of these symptoms are pretty severe. They have a common root.

John Jubilee (16:19)

Well, they really do. They really do, Eric. About 99% now, by the way, according to the Mayo Clinic, 99% of all illness and disease is tied to one thing, which is. Is inflammation. But then what is the root cause of inflammation? The root cause of inflammation, super simple. It's cellular dehydration. And that's the beautiful thing. That's why, you know, 28 years ago, when I did all this research and, you know, cut through all of it, looked at all the scientific peer studies, I realized all of the root cause of 99% of illness was tied to one thing, which was cellular dehydration. And, and I made this. My mission in life is how do you hydrate a human cell? And it's not just by drinking water, but there's a scientific process to actually transform a cell where it goes from being hard as a glass marble to porous like a sponge. And we love to walk people through this. And, you know, one of my favorite quotes of all time, Albert Einstein said, if you cannot explain it to a second grader, where they can understand it, you don't understand it. And so we love to make things simple so that everyone, if they were in second grade, they could understand how do you scientifically get healthy at the cellular level? And this is our mission in life, is to help everyone to be their real self, have their best health from the inside out.

Eric Bolling (17:42)

And one of the things I know that you do, I think is important, is everyone isn't the same. So you take the individual and you work them. They have different levels and whatnot, and you make sure you're catering to their individual needs. Right.

John Jubilee (17:56)

Well, I so appreciate you bringing that up because we are all a fingerprint, right? No one has your genetic blueprint that you have. God made us all so unique and special. And so one of the things that we recommend that people do is listen, get an assessment of what is my cellular health. So this can now be measured with a simple bioimpedance device, which we could FedEx to your house, by the way, for $99. Guys, for $99, we will FedEx to your house a bioimpedance device and do a health consultation with you for $99. Come on. It's cheaper than a doctor's visit, but GPS, you got to know your location, where you're starting, so you can get to your destination. And it's the same way with health. And to my knowledge, there's not one doctor in America that measures what is your cellular health level, what we call your cellular health index. Nor do they measure what is my intracellular hydration. We've been measuring years. And guys, you could come and join us at our. My 555 challenge as well. So, you know, and by the way, we only do about a half a dozen of these a year, but we're doing one starting today. Starting today. So if you go register for that today, you can spend about an hour a day with Chelsea. And I will break this science down for you, make it super simple. But we'll also, as part of this, will FedEx you just sign up for the VIP. It's $99. And for $99, you can get your full health assessment. Meet with Chelsea and I for a whole week. And this could be the last program you ever do.

Eric Bolling (19:30)

It's really fascinating. It's fascinating how, again, you want to be healthier. Just, just get your inflammation down. And if this, this is it, then, then by all means, John Jubilee. Really good to have you, my friend. Energized health. Thank you, sir.

John Jubilee (19:43)

Thank you, Eric.

Eric Bolling (19:45)

All righty, folks, our Next guest is our own RAV Border correspondent, Oscar Elblue Ramirez, who's bringing us the very latest on the Mexican cartels. Welcome, Oscar. And I will preface this with we have President Trump who's going to enter the East Room momentarily. So please, what's the very, very latest, Oscar? Well, for the first time in history, you know, Eric, last week there was a drone attack right here in the part of Tijuana and the fiscal general, the state's office, it is just historic. It has never been done before, is one of the things that cash Patel on his end. And also ultimately Mr. Marco Rubio, the Secretary of state, when he visited Mexico, that was one of his main concerns, the technology of the cartels, how they have advanced and how the Mexican government was willing to control this. And then this happens. An attack was done on the fiscal general of the state. One of the cartels attacked outside of the premises. Clearly it was, you know, it is a security threat. Two helicopters were flying on the border on the US Side immediately as this attack. Really, Oscar, really want to get into this a little bit more. We have President Trump. We are making way for right now, the president, United States, folks, as you.

Donald Trump (20:54)

Know, we won it by what, 36 points or some ridiculous numbers like that. And so when I was asked to do this, I said, this is my honor. Please sit down. We'll have a little fun. Okay, thank you all very much. Great group of people. This place is crowded. You got a lot of fans. Who do you think is going to make it into the major leagues? Raise your hand if you think that. I guarantee a lot of them. When you hear about their records and their conquests, I want to just begin by saying that we're joined today two collegiate championship baseball teams from the great state of Louisiana. Two teams that were absolutely the top. Both of these teams brought incredible pride and grit and glory to their schools with the state. And today they're bringing that same Louisiana spirit to a place called the White House. Has anyone heard of it? Huh? You know, we're building right behind us, we're building a ballroom. They've wanted a ballroom for 150 years. And I'm giving that honor to this wonderful place. I think we should do it. This was the ballroom, and this room holds 88 people.

John Jubilee (22:11)

And the.

Donald Trump (22:12)

And the new one will hold 999 people, which is a difference. I say 999 because I didn't want to crack a thousand. I didn't want people to get concerned because that's getting big. But we're going to have. We'll have the most beautiful ballroom in the country. It's going. And if for those that are interested, we've got to get back to baseball. But you see the gold drapes, That's a knockout panel. We knock it in, you go, that comes out, and then you have essentially glass and. Exactly. In the decor of the White House. I didn't know I'd be standing here right now, because right on the other side, you have a lot of construction going on, which you might hear periodically. But that's a knockout panel, and that goes right into the ballroom. And the ballroom is going to be beautiful. So you'll have drinks, cocktails, everything on this floor. And then they'll say, welcome to dinner. You walk into the ballroom, Mr. Senators, and you're going to see a ballroom the likes of which I don't think will. I don't think it'll be topped. It'll be. It'll be the finest. So it's going to be a lot of fun. It just started and it just started today, so that's good luck. We want the same luck that they had and the same talent. But I'm thrilled to welcome the 2025 NCAA College World Series champions. That's pretty good. The Louisiana State University Tigers. So where are you guys? And of course, we have the 2025 NAIA baseball national champions. National champions, the LSU Shreveport Pilots. So those two teams, you'll hear about them in a second. And I want to thank the Tigers head coach, Jeh Johnson, who I just met. These are great coaches who led the team to its second championship win in just three years. And also is the LSU Shreveport head coach Brad Neffendorf, who is the College Baseball Foundation's 2025 Coach of the Year. Not. I think we should bring them into government. They don't need the baseball. We can bring them into government. We could definitely use it. We're also honored to be joined by the incredible duo from Louisiana, Speaker Mike Johnson. As you know, Mike is phenomenal. The job he's doing is phenomenal. And House Majority Leader Steve Scalica. Very brave man. Very brave man. Hi, Steve. Two great guys. You know, Steve is very brave, though. He was. He was badly hurt and they put him at second base. Did you ever hear of Bobby Richardson? He had great depth, he had great range. He could go all over. He was with the Yankees for many years, and I don't know. He came from around your area, I think. Bobby Richardson, a second baseman for the Yankees for many years. So he was known for unbelievable. He could. He'd field balls at shortstop when they were hit. It was great. And when Steve was so badly injured, you know about that. Nobody ever really suffered like that. We thought. We thought he was a goner, actually. I went to the hospital that night. But he came back and a few months later, he's standing at second base. And he was having a hard time moving. I wouldn't say he had Bobby Richardson's arranged. Do you agree with that? And he was having a little bit of a hard time. He was coming at us. It was really a very bad experience for him. So he's standing in the stadium over here, the Washington Stadium, and a ball is smashed to him. The first pitch of the game, he's at second base and he wasn't looking to be a hero. And he dropped to his knees and he stopped. And that was a hard hit. This happened from God. The first pitch of the game, it's ripped. You know what I'm talking about, Mr. Governor. The ball is ripped to him. Hard ground ball. He falls to his knees. He blocks it, he grabs it, he throws it to first. They got him out. Nobody could believe it. Nobody could believe it. And they immediately took him out of the game because there was going to be no way, right? There was no way you were going to top it. It can only go down from there, right. Steve and I said, this is amazing, but it was. It was really something. We're also pleased to be joined by two wonderful people. Senators, your senators, Bill Cassidy and John Kennedy. Thank you both for being here. Appreciate it very much. Very, very much. A lot of good political people in that state. It's been known for politics, I think I would say politics. Baseball and football. A little bit of football, too, right? Representative Julia Letlow. Julia. Hi, Julia, how are you? Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry, who we had a lot of luck with, right? You won that campaign. It was beautiful. And his wife, Sharon. Thank you very much. Hi, Sharon. Nice to see you. Sharon. And all of the other Louisiana fans and politicians. You have so many political leaders. I want to just thank you all for being here. It's a great. It's a great tribute to this team, to these two great teams. Very rare that you have two teams in one room. You might have them, but they're not from the same state. What is it with baseball? What is that, Coach? What do you figure that is? Just has it right. Pretty good. I tell you. It's pretty amazing. Two amazing seasons. Two incredible teams to celebrate. So let's start with the Tigers. Okay? Throughout their 2025 season, the LSU Tigers delivered some of the most electrifying moments in the history of college baseball and ended with a phenomenal record of 53 wins and just 15 losses. That's pretty good. We'd like to have that in the major leagues. You finished the year with an eight game win streak and a two game series sweep against Coastal Carolina in the College World Series finals to take the title. That's the eighth national baseball title in LSU history. That's amazing, actually, that's. Now LSU's pitching staff was the best in the conference, leading the nation with 760 strikeouts. Kate Anderson was ranked college baseball's number one player on the mount. I would like to represent him. I'm leaving the White House immediately. Oh, the money. Somebody's got to make some. Where's Cade? Where is Cage? Where are you, Cade? Come here. Boy, oh boy, would I like to be doing that, huh? 180 strikeouts. That's a lot. Sets almost a record. In game one of the championships, he pitched a complete game shutout, preventing Coastal Carolina from scoring. Even though they had one of the best offensive teams in all of baseball. Even a single run they couldn't get. So it's no wonder he was named the College World Series Most outstanding player. Cade. Thank you very much, Cade. And it's great to have you at the White House. We like winners at the White House, Cade. To advance to the regional championship, LSU faces Dallas Baptist. Supposed to be a great team. An outfielder, Chris Stanfield was, they say, unstoppable. He built an early game momentum with a second inning home run, contributed multiple RBIs and brought in an additional run with a sacrifice ground out at the end of the game. And you ended up winning the game. So I think your last sacrifice didn't matter too much because they won the game 12 to nothing. That's not too bad. Where are you? Where are you? Look at this guy, huh? Is he that good of playing? Is he good? Pretty good, huh? That's a good team. So to advance through the regional championship, lsu, and if you look at it, LSU has turned out to be named one of the best teams over the last 10 years, according to the experts, of which there are many, but most of them can't play very well, right? Back in Baton Rouge, you had a tense game one on the Super Regional west against West Virginia with a full court in a fifth inning, a full count in the fifth inning, the bases were loaded and sophomore shortstop Stephen Milam launched the ball deep over right center field, securing a grand Islam. And adding four runs to the numbers already up substantially, West Virginia began to mount a comeback in the six. But Josh Pearson smashed another grand slam over the wall, carrying the Tigers to victory. So, Josh, where are you? And where. Let's see. Malum. Malum. Where is Mal? These guys have very strong hands. I'm noticing. You know, they're ripping me. They're ripping my hand up. These are strong people. You don't hit those home runs without strong, beautiful hands. You agree with that? Mr. Speaker, how was your baseball? Okay. Not bad. Not quite as good. First baseman Jared Jones had one of the most iconic outings of the season during the June 14th. My birthday, College World Series. Thank you very much. Thank you. Flag Day. That was Flag Day. You know that, right? Against the Arkansas Razorbacks. After knocking a home run out of the park earlier in the game, Jared walked up to the plate in the bottom of the ninth with two outs and the score was tied. And they looked like he could be in trouble. And a runner was in second with a 21 count. He hit a line drive up the middle, giving the Tigers enough time to rack up a six run, sending them straight to the finals. And the rest is history. You know what happened. Ten players of this elite squad are now headed to even greater glory in the Major League Baseball. I think you're going to do all right. I would like to represent every single one. No, I mean, the team must be incredible. Kate Anderson was drafted by the Seattle Mariners. So I think. Aren't they playing a big game tonight or something like that? Are you going to be watching that? I think so. You better be watching. I'm so busy. I don't get to watch baseball too much. I did watch the other night, however, I turned on and there happened to be a Japanese player who was not bad. He was one of the best pitchers I've ever seen, one of the best hitters I've ever seen. And that all makes for a nice contract. He's pretty good, right? Pretty amazing. When you think they say one of the best games ever played because you had pitching and hitting at this with the same guy. Pretty exciting. Chase Shores was drafted by the Los Angeles Angels. Where's Chase? Where's Chase? Good. Wow. Nice, big, tall guy. Very good. Good. Anthony Ionson and Jacob Meyers were drafted by the Boston Red Sox. Boy, you have good. Where is Anthony? Is Anthony here? Anthony, right here. Good luck, huh? Good team. Good team. And Ethan Frey was drafted by the Houston Ash. It's another good team. They win a lot, right? Where is he? Where is that guy? Good luck, huh? You feel confident? Daniel Dickerson were drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers. Where's Daniel? Congratulations. Good luck, huh? Jarrod Jones was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Jared, congratulations. And Cade woods, who's not present, who wanted to be here so badly, had a problem, was drafted by the Atlanta Braves. That's fantastic. I mean, that's a lot of. That's a lot of talent. By the way, we have somebody here who was drafted in another sport, number one at everything. He was never drafted. Number two or three. The great Herschel Walker is here. I understand. Where's Herschel? Where's Herschel? Come here, come here, come here, come here, Herschel. I'm not sure that LSU loves this guy, but they do respect him. There's nobody like.

Herschel Walker (35:21)

Come here.

Donald Trump (35:21)

You want to say a couple of words about baseball players. I saw him sitting out there. I said, come on.

Herschel Walker (35:28)

You know, I absolutely love this president, but I didn't ask him to put.

Donald Trump (35:32)

Me on the spot.

Herschel Walker (35:33)

But anyway, I just want to just tell the players, continue to have that determination that you had in baseball carried throughout your life.

Donald Trump (35:42)

So things may get tough, but remember.

Herschel Walker (35:44)

You can always get up, no matter.

Donald Trump (35:45)

Whatever happens, gets up and continue to fight, fight, fight. All right, so, Connor, we're. Thanks, Hershel. What a player he was, huh? Oh, boy. Couldn't stop him. He'd go around you, but if he couldn't go around you, because he just. What? He'd go right through you and he'd carry four guys on his back for as much as he need. Nobody better. I think maybe the best in history in college. And he had a great career in the NFL, too, and he's a great person. And now he's going to be the ambassador. Come on, name the country, Herschel. He's going to be a tough job. That's a tough job, right? You. We'd like to have that job a little bit. We're leaving tonight. Connor Ware was drafted by the New York Mets. Connor, where are you? Connor? Boy, that's a hell of a team. And Louis Hernandez will be joining the Minnesota Twins organization, so I just want to congratulate Louis. Where are you, Louis? I've never seen a team with so many people being drafted into the major leagues. They cannot be a bad team. In fact, I think your record should have been better. That's a hell of a record. So we also have a second amazing team with a big win to celebrate today, the LSU Shreveport Pilots. This year, the Pilots became the first and only college baseball team in history to Go a full season, totally undefeated. You have. That's not bad. Well, I want these two teams to play. Let's. You want to do it? I'll do it. We'll get the stadium. I'll pay for it. What the hell. But you had an astounding record of 59 wins and no losses. What the hell is with that? In baseball, you know, normally you have like a little bad luck. You lose a game or two. That's. That's pretty good. What you have to say that he did a good job. Congratulations. You two great coaches. Two great people too. You also became the first team in the history of LSU Shreveport to bring home a national title. Head coach Brad Knifendorf deserves a special recognition. The Pilots have been in every NAIA national tournament over the past two decades. That's pretty amazing. But they never brought home the title until Brad came along. And so coach of the year and all of that stuff. These two coaches are unbelievable. The top of the line. And I'll be honest, you know, I watch Major League Baseball and other sports and they keep hiring the same coaches over and over again, right? They get fired and they hire them again. I'd hire these two guys, but I don't want to take them away from your school. So I'm only kidding. Just pretend I'll end up. You'll all leave, say, that was terrible. They'll both be hired. I'll tell you what, they do a great job too. During the Red river athletic conference awards, 14 members of the Pilots team received all conference team honors and six players were selected Gold Love team for excellent defense. I can imagine. Isaac Rode was named conference pitcher of the year for a crushing league with, think of this, a 12, 0 record and 114 strikeouts. How about that? 120 is not bad. And Kobe Reeves, a left handed pitcher, was honored as the conference's newcomer of the year. So where are you two guys? That's a fantastic thing. This team fought hard all the way through the last game of the season, the NAIA national championship against Southeastern University, which supposedly is a great opponent. And your frankly opponents quickly took the lead in the first two innings. But you refused to fold or quit or do the thing that we're used to seeing a lot of people do in Washington. They quit. They fold. We don't fold, do we? Huh? We don't fold. Jose Salorin, who is supposed to be a terrific prospect for the future, drove in two and Anthony Swenda scored a on a wild pitch and the next inning the game was tied. Was Anthony. Anthony. Is he Here, Anthony could go on. Come here, Anthony. Get over here. Southeastern pulled ahead again, but the Pilots answered in a thunderous fashion. Home runs by Jackson Searing and Ian Montz, and they say they're tremendous prospects also. And clutch RBIs from Ryan Davenport and Austin Gome turned the tide very quickly. By the eighth inning, the Pilots were in full command, adding three more runs before slamming the door shut. When it was over, the scoreboard read 13 to 7 and the pilots were national champions. Wow, that's great, fellas. So together. How about the record of these two teams together? You know, you put them together, you win, I think you win the World Series, period. A lot of you are going to be in Major League Baseball. We'll be watching you for a long time to come. And it's amazing. Great athletes, great, great looking, young, wonderful people. Together these teams made history and won Louisiana's unparalleled glory on the college baseball diamond, dominating not one, but two leagues in a single year. Think of that. You dominated each league you dominated. It's pretty unheard of. But there is something about your state. You're really special state. And when you look at the kind of love here, you got a lot of the parents here that are so proud of what they have produced. Some of them are thinking about dollar signs, they're saying, others are just saying, how handsome is my son, right? But regardless, I just think it's amazing. It's a great tribute to the state. And I want to introduce now, to say a few words, another winner. He's taken over a situation where we had a majority of two. Nobody knows what a majority of two. We actually had a couple of moments where we were a majority of one person. And I said, you know, and it was terrible that I said this, but I said it. I said, speaker, we're one heart attack away from losing the majority, right? And the speaker said, please, I don't want to think about that. But we hung in, right, Steve? We hung in and we got everything we wanted. Wanted the great big beautiful deal, the biggest ever produced. Think of it, with a majority of. I guess at that time we were like a majority of four. And I had to make calls at 3 o' clock in the morning, 4 o'. Clock. You don't want to do this, fellas. Just keep playing baseball. It's more fun. I got a call from the speaker, sir. We have seven hard nos and I'd say that's not good. This was at three in the morning. We needed the vote by early in the morning. And I had to call people at three in the morning, four in the morning. I say, Jim, he said, you have my vote, sir. No, I thought he was a hard. No, he just wanted me to call him. Then I called another one. Hi, Jack, it's 3:14 in the morning. Hi Jack, sir, you have my vote. Oh. So the hard nose turned out not to be that hard, John. They just wanted me to call them. You know, they couldn't just raise their hand like they're supposed to. They wanted to, wanted me to call and we ended up winning and we, it's the, it's the single biggest bill ever passed in the history of Congress of, you know, because we ultimately got the Senate. And what we don't want to say is that it's actually so full of things. I mean, no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime. The biggest tax cut in history, the biggest deductions ever taken, job producing deductions, $50 billion to rural hospitals. We took care of Medicaid, Medicare. We took care of everything. And we did something that people didn't know. We didn't know where we'd stand in a year or two years from now. So we put every single thing that we wanted in that bill for four years. So we don't need any more votes. We don't. All we want to do, all we want to do is have a vote of continuation. And it's the first time in history that a group has not voted for continuation. So they're having a, they have what's called a Trump derangement problem. Have you heard about that problem? Because that's the only reason this could be possible. But I think we're doing very well. I think they're going to have no choice but to go along because the country is setting records in every way and people want it to continue that way. So we're hoping the Democrats that's become much less deranged and that we will get the vote pretty soon. And I hear they're starting to feel that way too. They're starting to feel like they really have to do what's right for the country and they will. But I want to just introduce speaker of the House Mike Johnson. He's fantastic. Thank you.

Mike Johnson (45:34)

Thank you, Mr. President. I, I'll be very brief. We wanted to thank you for being such a gracious host and having us out to recognize this excellence. And it really is Louisiana's punching way above our weight limit. And this is the pride of the state right now. These guys behind me, they worked so hard and they did it with class, Mr. President. They had grit and determination and integrity. And it's so good to see that pay off. And Louisiana is, as you said, a special state filled with great people, great fan base. The parents are part of that. You have the board of supervisors and the board over the LSU system. And we recognize south and North Louisiana delivering these great titles, great championships, and it's really been something. And we want to thank you for your tremendous record and all you're doing right now. I mean, this president has not only reduced taxes, as we said, we've cut fraud, waste and abuse out of government. He solved the border crisis, he's solving the crime crisis. Oh, that's right. He's also resolving wars around the world. But he still takes time. That's right. He still takes time to recognize the leaders of the next generation. And that means so much to all of us. I know it does. I have a personal connection to both schools, sir. You know, I was, I'm a double alum from LSU in Baton Rouge undergrad and law school. My daughter is the same. She's sitting here with me, Hannah. But I grew up in the shadow of LSUs, literally just out of the campus. We lived in a little neighborhood there and I used to go play baseball on the field over there at the school. So this, this really runs deep for all of us. And it means so much to us. Means so much to us that you're here to help celebrate. And I, I get the honor of introducing the first of the two coaches to speak. And both of these men are extraordinary. Their records speak for themselves. The way they've led these young guys, the way that they've shown them, the way. I love the demeanor of both of these gentlemen and how they do it. They're extraordinary coaches and they could coach, coach in a majors, you're right. But we hope they stay where they are for just a little while longer. But, but I, I'm going to recognize as the first one here. And there's a lot of reasons why Coach J. Johnson is, is recognized as one of the greatest coaches because he, he does so well. He has all star recruiting classes because he's able to go out and do that so well. He has elite pitching development. He's had an incredible record of postseason success, as you all know. And as was noted, he's brought home not one, but two titles in three years to lsu, which is a historic legacy that we have. I was there in the 90s when we were winning these things and it's great to Be doing it again. The seventh and eighth national titles now delivered by one of our favorite people. And we're delighted. I'm delighted to welcome him up. Say a few words, if you will. Coach Jeh Johnson. Thank you so much.

Jeh Johnson (48:19)

Mr. President. Thank you for having us in your home. I think the main thing I take away from you is work ethic, something we preach. And nobody works harder for America than you. So thank you for setting a good example. Mr. Speaker, Mr. Leader, thank you so much for getting us here. It's an honor. It's an honor of a lifetime to be in the house of the greatest country in the world. And these guys had to do it on the field to make that happen. But we're here because of your efforts, and to have Louisiana so well represented by you two is outstanding. We are the college baseball capital of the world for 2025, well represented in Washington as well. Governor Landry here, we're coming to your house tomorrow night, and we're really fired up about that. So thank you for having us. It's awesome. About 34 games into the year, last year, I just started telling these guys I could coach this team forever, and I could do it because they embodied our mission. And our mission for the season last year was tough and together to have the mental toughness to, no matter the circumstances, keep your head, execute your job at the highest level. They were the best in the country at that. And then the togetherness. You heard about all the draft picks, all these guys have their entire lives and world in front of them, but they made it about winning, they made it about lsu, and they made it about the team. And there's the honor of my lifetime to coach this national championship team and to be the coach at lsu. So I want to thank my team on this national stage because not only were they the national champions, they're the best baseball team in America last year. So thank you, guys. So I thought we did well, but this man did pretty well at 59 and 0, so I'm going to turn it over to him. Coach Neffendorf, great job. And it's an honor to share the stage with you and your championship team as well.

Herschel Walker (50:29)

First off, I want to speak on behalf of our university administration, our athletic department for such a wonderful day and our coaching staff and our players, for which we are recognizing here today. We're extremely honored to be here, Excited. And, you know, I know our guys have been jacked up about it, not only just for the recognition, but you guys are recognizing the way where they get to Be together one more time. And that says that for both teams up here. And no better way to do that, that, you know, I could sit up here and talk to you about our team all day long. What I can't talk to, and I get it, gets tough at times to answer is how we didn't lose a game. The only thing that I can sit up here and talk to you about is what they did to put themselves in position to at the end of the year, have not lost a game and won a national title. There was one word with these guys, and it was investment. They were invested in absolutely everything that. Not only that we asked them to do, but most the of, most importantly, they were invested in each other. You know, we always talk every year when we get these guys, we get together in the fall because the roster can turn over and things can reset, you know, about how quick can we become a team. And there's rosters out there that don't become teams. And this group went from a roster to a team so incredibly quick, it made the lives of us coaching staff just that much easier. We just did what we could to get the heck out of the way and let them go. I've never seen a group with the word investment, you know, turn over to a word called impact with that investment. They impacted so many people from the university to the city. And I can truthfully sit up here and tell you they impacted myself and our coaching staff more than anybody else. You know, just like Jay, I want to thank our guys for what they did. I can't thank them enough. Just the impact that they had on everybody around them was truly unbelievable. And I. And I can speak to. That's why they put themselves in position to play for a national title. You know, the one thing that I'm gonna, you know, Jay said it and others. This isn't about just one program. Note today, obviously, lsu. If you think about baseball in the state of Louisiana, and I have for years, you think about lsu, very historic program, built out a lot of success and what they've been able to do twice in the last three years, you know, you can take what Jay said and you can add on a lot. I'm sure what I've said about the word investment and impact and whatnot, to be able to win two in the last three years in Division 1 baseball in the landscape that we have right now is incredible to me. But I can also say when you added what lsu, Shreveport has now done, my point with this whole thing, and it goes back to what Jay said as well, baseball and college. College baseball right now is in the state of Louisiana. I don't think there's any better place for what's going on and how it's gone on. So that's how I'll end with what I've got today. I want to personally thank President Trump, Speaker Johnson, everybody involved. We can't thank you enough for having us here. It's one of the greatest things that, you know, these guys are ever going to be able to be a part of. And with that said, we have some gifts that we would like to present over.

Donald Trump (53:34)
