• Second Amendment Concerns:
  • Bolling brandishes his “pocket constitution” and laments Gavin Newsom’s “Glock ban.”

Transcript

[Donald Trump]

This is an iHeart podcast.

[Eric Bolling]

But a good guy generally. Fair enough. All right, Gruber, thank you for the handoff. Always good talking. I owe you dinner. Steak dinner. Yeah. All right.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

There you go.

[Eric Bolling]

A man who. Pay my bets. All right, folks, Tuesday, 4:00pm and guess what? The markets are closed. Mixed market, as they say today. Dow Jones up, NASDAQ down pretty much unchanged for this S P. After a, you know, a little bit of quiet trading session, there were some. Look at the gold number. What the heck happened in gold now? 4119 is still probably 40, 43% up for the year. That's a big move down in gold. I don't know what that is. It could have something to do with the interest rates, the concern over interest rates. It could have. Remember, Friday, there's going to be some. Some inflation numbers that are released assuming the BLS gets their act together and actually releases them. 5786 for oil. Still very, very good news. And another mixed day on the cryptos. Jump over the crypto very quickly. We see Bitcoin doing very well. 112,000 Ethereum struggling a little bit. And then XRP and some of the other ones mix. So the market, this, I would call these, these, these nervous markets, are not really sure what the next move is going to be. But I will tell you what my next guess is going to be. He's going to be sheriff of Riverside county currently in California, and he's running for the California governor. As he says, we can and will restore California dreams for all. Happy to have Sheriff Chad Bianco back with us. Sheriff, really good to have you, my friend. You're optimistic about the future of California, but the Democrats always seem angry and want to overreact. And we'll give you case in point. Democrat Katie Porter got to do it. Running for governor against you has shown she's an angry individual. Just watching. Watch this.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

That we're going to lose more than half a million Californians dying prematurely to air pollution and other problems and the state could lose. Get out of my shot.

[Eric Bolling]

I wanted to tell you that that's actually incorrect. It's not that it's electric vehicles. It's that if we don't meet the.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Commitments under the Paris climate Accord. Okay, it does. Okay. You also were in my shop before that. Stay out of my shot.

[Eric Bolling]

God forbid you get in the back of Katie Porter's shot. Forget you're imparting bad information to the people you were trying to talk to. That doesn't matter. Just get out of her shot. I'll let you Sheriff. I'll let you take it from there. And this isn't the only instance of her losing her mind over something. Nonsense. But go ahead sir.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

No, it's not. And we've known forever who Katie Porter truly is. I'm just glad now that the whole world is going to see it and especially all of California. She's not likable, she's not electable. And we've known this forever. It's almost one of those reverse psychology type things is you don't want to let that out too quick. She would have been nice to run against in the, in the November election next year. But we have a feeling that she's going to drop off quite drastically now that everyone realizes who she is. And you certainly don't want that as your governor.

[Eric Bolling]

Sheriff, I have a pocket constitution in my backpack right over there. Carry it wherever I go. Second Amendment, very important. I believe the only reason why we have first amendment is because we have a second amendment protection of over of our right to keep and bear arms against the tyrannical government. That said, Gavin Newsom seems to be on gun grab lately. Can you explain to us where he is, what he's doing, what the plan is and why it's very important. Do we have a conservative governor in the state of California?

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Yeah, very much so. So the recent thing that he did is it's, it's the so called Glock ban. They passed a bill that he signed into law that bans striker fired guns. They call it a Glock ban but it's any striker fire gun is going to be outlawed state of California. You won't be able to purchase it here. And this is just more of their what you mentioned, gun grab. This is a disarming the population. It's a very anti gun, anti second amendment state. They don't care about the Constitution, the Constitution. The Supreme Court is, is repeatedly reaffirming what the second amendment is and California doubles down, triples down and passes these anti second amendment bills that you end up having to fight in court that go on for years and years. But we truly do need someone that cares not only about the amendment, which we know they don't, but also the second amendment.

[Eric Bolling]

Yes sir. A couple of the other issues that plagued California, we saw the wildfires and then we saw the mismanagement of water. Trump came in and said he had to open the spigots. There's ample water in the state of California, just diverted out into the ocean for some reason. Tell us how, you know, how would, how would Sheriff Bianco handle the water situation in California?

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Well, we'll finally be honest with the California public and tell you that you have a water management problem. A government mismanagement of our water systems, not a water problem. We have plenty of water. It's just completely mismanaged. And it's mismanaged on purpose. So they have control of. They have control of people, they have control of building and most importantly, of farmers. So with me as your governor, we will build all of the dams that you want to make sure that we have 100% of our water for our farming community, for our ag community, for our building community that's building these communities. We have more water than any place in the state. And we will make sure that government gets out of that way and out of that control process and allows California to prosper.

[Eric Bolling]

Sheriff, help us out here. So much of the stuff that we know, we do, we talk about. It seems logical. It's common sense, right? But for whatever reason I can think of, Ronald Reagan's the only California governor that I can recall. Maybe Schwarzenegger. I'm not the Republican. I'm not sure Schwarzenegger was. Every really republic. Anyway, make a long story short, Democrats continue to hold power in throughout the state of California, like New York as well. They're about to elect a socialist. Not even someone who's just a hardcore Democrat, a socialist. Are the people that angry at conservatives that they would be willing to risk their own futures just to make sure they don't have a conservative in office?

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Yeah, honestly, I don't think it's that angry. I think it's completely brainwashed, misled and miseducated from a couple of generations of our education system that is telling us that America is bad and that socialism is somehow good. Even though the free market system, the capitalist system, America as we know it, freedom as we know it, is what made America great. But you have a very left liberal agenda that is truly. It is anti American. It is socialist, even to the point where Mandami calls himself a socialist and California Democrats refer to themselves as the Democrat Socialist Party. So it's something very strange, it's something very sinister and it's very alarming that we are not getting that word out or that so many people are following along with this in the name of free stuff that they don't want to work hard anymore. Just the government promised me something and I'll vote for them. It's an alarming place that we are in. California is way ahead of the rest of the country. And California is learning that this one party agenda, this one party socialist movement has destroyed California. So we think we're going to be able to defeat it this time and we'll set the tone for the rest of the country to do the same.

[Eric Bolling]

Sir. At one point, Kamala Harris was still being floated as potential governor of California. So Katie Porter working against Kamala Harris. Harris, this dropped out, obviously, so Katie Porter bubbles up the top. And the point I'm trying to make here is in New York, Mamdani will likely win unless Curtis Lewood drops out. He's got about 15, 14% of the vote there. There's no chance for Andrew Cuomo to win there unless Sleewood drops out. You are splitting the Republican vote with Steve Hilton. Is there a point where you guys get together and say, I'm the best one for the Republicans to win this and the other one drops out or tell me how it works. And by the way, what is that process?

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Yeah, it's. It's certainly not now. It's very early on in the process. The primary's in June and it's a jungle primary. So it's the top two vote getters go. So in the end, we know that our best bet is making sure that we take a page from the Democrat playbook and we all get behind one candidate. The fortunate thing for me is not only do the Democrats know, but the Republicans know that I have the best chance of winning a statewide election in California as a Republican. So I'm confident that Steve likes the country and what's best for California. And we'll come up with a. We'll come up with a solution to make sure that California elects a Republican governor.

[Eric Bolling]

One more question. Sorry, You're. I assume you're for a strong border.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Very much so. Very much so. This, for the first time in my.

[Eric Bolling]

30 years, how does. And this is great. And as a conservative, I pray you know you have a conservative governor in California. As a conservative, how does a conservative be elected governor in the state of California when they're so embedded with illegals like, I mean, restaurants, hotels, everyone seems to want to keep the flow of illegals coming into the state.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Yeah, I think that over the past history of California, I think we know that there are people here illegally, but it hasn't been this major drama around what's happened over the last four years. It was truly just an onslaught of illegal immigration into the country that was a little bit different than it has been before. We know that we have an immigrant community here that's here illegally, that is still working and part of our economy. I think that we need to stand up with both houses of Congress, the Senate and Congress to make sure that they fix the immigration system. It had to have a secure border to start with, but now we actually have to get to a process where we make sure that we not only punish the people that are here illegally, but we also have some type of an opportunity for a better path of citizenship. And I think we'll eventually get there. I think President Trump is looking along those lines anyway. And certainly California has to have something like that, being the largest state in the country. So what we have here, what people are really seeing is we're tired of the illegal immigrants who are also here, that committing crimes. The last thing we want is is anyone coming here illegally and victimizing us. And we can all stand together in that realm and say that those people have to leave. And I think that's going to be the common ground to make sure we win this election.

[Eric Bolling]

Sorry, it's tough one to answer. Very quickly, we have about a minute or so. So, by the way, I love the idea of a sheriff as governor of California. Former sheriff as governor of California. That's. It just, just rings like music to my ears. Taxes, right? The highest tax state in the union. Yet there's a budget deficit, a massive budget deficit in the state of California. And the reason why I say that is I live in the state of Florida where there are no property taxes and we have a massive budget surplus. How do you change that?

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Yeah, this is complete mismanagement of government. And it's a product of one party rule in a leftist agenda that is all about big government. It's about taxing you more, it's about regulating you more, getting more of your money so they could make government bigger. And we absolutely have to destroy that. We have to put government back to where it was, where government works for its residents instead of residents breaking their backs to make government bigger. And that's what we'll do here. The government regulation will be removed, businesses will thrive, business taxes, personal taxes will be lowered, and by the time I'm done, removed. I don't want to say that we're going to take over for Florida, but after I'm done with eight years as being the governor of California, we'll have your Florida residents moving to California.

[Eric Bolling]

So, jungle primary folks, you understand at the top, whatever the top two, doesn't matter, what party you come from, will run off against each other. And it's you know, June seems like a long way away, Sheriff, but in politics, it's not a long time at all. In other words, I would love for you guys to get, to get, get both of your, your groups behind one candidate. Personally, Steve's a friend of mine, but I, I love the idea of a former sheriff. For my money, it would be that I'm not a voter there, so I don't really have a vote in that. But I want to thank you very much for coming on the show, Sheriff Chad Bianco.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Absolutely. Thanks. I love being here.

You know, it's good to remember that while they call for no kings and no billionaires, they live a pretty cushy life, don't they? Do I own three residences? Yeah, I do. I live here in Burlington, Vermont. We live in a middle class neighborhood. Nice house. Guess what? I'm a United States senator and I own a home in Washington D.C. as do most centers. You know, you live there year after year. When I first went to, actually when I was in Congress for 16 years, I rented all the time. But I got elected. Okay. Got a six year term. You know what? Let's buy a house. So we bought a house and guess what? Like many thousands of people in the state of Vermont, I have a summer camp. It's a nice one on Lake Champlain. That's it. That's it. That's it. Three houses. Just three houses. Including summer camp, by the way. Sounds kind of like millionaires. Speak to me. Calling your summer getaway house a summer camp. Doesn't it sound very working class to me though now does it? And how exactly did Bernie Sanders, man who works for the government, how did he pay for with the salary he's paid for? With our tax dollars. That's how he did it. How does Bernie get to have not one, not two, but three houses as a high level government employee? By the way, he's a senator. He never makes more than $174,000 a year before taxes. Yet three houses. Pretty impressive. Lucky guy. Must have a good tax accountant, don't you think? But you see, here's the thing. Unlike socialists like him, I don't begrudge him for making money. You work hard, you reap the rewards of living in a capitalist society. The free market does wonderful things for people. You work hard and you can sink your teeth into the free market economy and take a bite out of it. But that's not the message Bernie Sanders is sending out. It's most certainly not the one he and his fellow far left comrades have pushed down the throat of the people. No, the message that he and his party are sending Americans is that the same one that has led to the deaths of millions and millions of millions of people. Socialism. That message has taken over his party and the message has taken over this country slowly but surely. It's creeping socialist creep. Have you heard of it? It's real. It will kill America and Americans if we don't put an end to it. History repeating itself, folks. They know exactly what they're doing. Calling this protest nonsense. No kings. Of course there's no king. If anything, those who have stayed in their top level roles in government, talking about Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, Schur, Chuck Schumer, Bernie Sanders, they're more like kings than President Trump will ever be. Kings, by the way, respond to a difference of opinion through violence. Disagree, you're hanged in the public square. Read President Trump's mugshot. Or worse, read Charlie Kirk's assassination in broad daylight in the public square. When communism took over Russia through violence, that was called the Russian Revolution. Of course there was actually was a king in Russia at the time. The revolutionaries pretended they were fighting against the king on behalf of the working people. And when then they won and got all the power on behalf of the people. What happened? They became worse than the kings they removed. And their answer is to blame the so called oligarchs, the so called kings, while they collect all the riches for themselves. Here's OG American socialist. Three houses, Bernie, again just yesterday. Why do they, why do they not like you and trust you right now? Well, I think independents are a different story than Democrats. But right now I think the answer is people looking around them. Can they afford health care? No. What are the Democrats thought about that? Not a whole lot. Can their kids afford to go to child care? Well, no. Child care is outrageously expensive. What about housing? How we do it on housing. Nobody in America can afford housing right now. Housing costs are astronomical. You want to get your kids to eat decent food, not junk food, so they don't become obese. Go to the grocery store, find about the found out how much it cost for decent quality food. What about rural America? Our hospitals are shutting down. So this country faces many crises away Give it all away. Housing, food, just give it away. Don't worry, someone pay for it. This is why, Bernie, I don't know. Maybe because you and all your comrades own two, three, four houses in a summer camp. Maybe because Nancy Pelosi dabbles in some insider trading, you think? Or is it the insanely poor choices of Democrats over the past two decades? Let's remember a Democrat sat in our White House for 12 of the past 17 years. All of the suffering is because of insane socialist spending, a war on energy and spending millions to fund illegals, just to name a few of their ideas. Those great ideas, those are all Democrat policies. But go on. King and I think a lot of working class people said, look, Trump is crazy, he lies all the time, but at least he's going to do something. Where are the Democrats? And the Democrats have got to make a very fundamental decision. Do you stand with the struggling working class, 60% of whom are living paycheck to paycheck, trying to survive? Are you prepared to take on the oligarchy, the mosques and the bezos who have never had it so good? The oligarchy, the millionaires and billionaires? Lots unpack on that statement right there. Trump is a liar. No, he's just only been in the Oval for eight months. And it takes a long time to undo Democrat stupidity. The oligarchs. Well, there's a word again. Look, there's a man in New York right now who wants to take New York City off a socialist cliff. It's hard to imagine the financial center of America falling to communism, and yet it's about to. Zoran Mamdani is about to win the New York City race, mayoral race. It's not even close right now as long as Curtis Leva stays in the race. And today he made it clear that he's staying in New York is about to learn the lesson, the hard way of socialism. Socialists like Mamdani, Elizabeth Warren, AOC and Bernie are going to give everyone everything they want. And the rich are going to pay for it. The people who work hard, even the middle class is going to pay for the lower class. But what if you don't have any more rich people to loan the federal, state and city governments the trillions they need to pay for it all? Take from the rich and redistribute. That's their promise. Sorry, but New York already isn't the greatest city in the world anymore. Even though it's always been pricey to live there. The powers that be were arrogant to believe that rich people will never leave, right? Well, it didn't really work out that way. They'll just grumble and they won't leave. Right, but they already have been. And they will continue to. Just look at Florida. Real estate prices are exploding down here. Why just wait till Mondami wins? It's going to be even worse. You can't redistribute money you don't have anymore. There's been a steady stream of leaving that will now turn into a flood if and when Mamdani wins. And who will pay for all the free stuff? The free buses, the free food, the free housing for illegals Rich don't have. They don't have much money to do all that. They're not noisy protests in the streets. Once taxes go above 52%, as Mandami promised, once crime goes back up and once prostitutes roam the streets and people will just leave, people who can afford it will just quietly get up, pack up and leave. And you don't often notice they're gone until you already anticipated those tax revenues and then they're not there anymore and they fall short of your projections. They will leave New York and they will leave all socialist cities with mayors that want to tax through the roof, fund illegals and crime, and support terrorists. That's because socialism is the root of all evil. It will kill cities like New York and it will kill this country if we let it back two and a half minutes. Well, Democrats, they're great at creating distractions. The Snow Kings protest says everyone temporarily distracted from the fact that they haven't accomplished any anything in months. Speaker Mike Johnson told the absolute truth about this pointless spectacle. Take a listen to what he had to say. King's rallies. You called these hate America rallies.

[Donald Trump]

What do you mean by that? Well, that collection of folks that I.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Listed were certainly part of it. We congratulate them on a apparently violent free free speech exercise. I was a First Amendment lawyer for 20 years. We defend that right. But the irony of the message is pretty clear for everyone.

[Eric Bolling]

If President Trump was a king, the.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Government would be open right now.

[Donald Trump]

If President Trump was a king, they.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Would not have been able to engage in that free speech exercise out on the Mall, by the way, which was open because President Trump hasn't closed it. In the last shutdown, 2013 era, President.

[Donald Trump]

Obama closed the National Mall, it closed.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

All the national parks, didn't allow people.

[Donald Trump]

To engage in all this.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

So, I mean, they needed a stunt.

[Donald Trump]

They needed a show.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Chuck Schumer needs cover right now. He's closed the government down. Because he needs political cover.

[Eric Bolling]

And this was a part of. Well, Speaker Johnson was actually right. Speaker Johnson has actually been on fire lately. I'm not a big huge fan of him, but at least when it comes to these types of things, he does a great job. He went on Fake News ABC again right there and was baited. In discussing Biden's ridiculous late term pardons, he dropped a truth bomb. Take a listen, President, in issuing the pardon or it's clemency. I'm sorry, the clemency.

[Donald Trump]

He said at least Santos had the.

[Eric Bolling]

Courage, conviction and intelligence to always vote Republican.

[Donald Trump]

I looked through this.

[Eric Bolling]

There have now I think we have.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

A list of them, 10 former Republican.

[Eric Bolling]

Members of Congress who the President has either pardoned or issued clemency for.10.

[Donald Trump]

Okay, you want to talk about what Joe Biden did with that power?

[Eric Bolling]

No, I want to talk about. He pardoned his own family.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

The only thing he signed, by the.

[Donald Trump]

Way, with his own pen.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Everything else is auto pin. But categories of hardened criminals that they just released from prison. At least President Trump is fully transparent. He goes out and explains his.

[Eric Bolling]

Is it okay for him to say essentially I'm pardoning somebody because they always.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Had the courage, that's not the reason.

[Eric Bolling]

He pardoned conviction and intelligence, to always vote Republicans.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

That's one snippet of what he said, among many things about George Santos.

[Eric Bolling]

But should that be a factor in pardoning somebody that they thought Republican? I don't think it was clemency.

[Donald Trump]

No, I don't think it was.

[Eric Bolling]

I just think he's talking about this.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Individual and his past and at least he's open and transparent about it. Joe Biden never told us anything. And frankly, we're not even sure he.

[Donald Trump]

Knew who he's pardoned.

[Eric Bolling]

I mean, Joe Biden pardoned like 8,000 people. He had no idea who he was, probably didn't pardon anyone. He probably had no idea who other people were selling pardons to. Have no clue about that. Everyone on the left is making this protest seem like the greatest success of all time. According to CNN, crowds were thin by 2:30 in the afternoon. Listen to this report.

[Donald Trump]

Well, Frederica, this program of speakers just.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Ended a short time ago.

[Donald Trump]

I can tell you that the crowd.

[Eric Bolling]

Is thinning out here. People started to leave, but boy, it.

[Donald Trump]

Was jam packed here. Just a few minutes ago when the.

[Eric Bolling]

Program of speakers was still going on.

[Donald Trump]

You had Senator Bernie Sanders who just wrapped up to a rousing round of applause. Senator Chris Murphy spoke. Bill Nye, the science guy spoke. And again, the crowds are thinned but they're not gone yet. I mean, there's, there was just tens.

[Eric Bolling]

Of thousands of people packed into a relatively small space here on Pennsylvania Avenue. And they were pressing forward as they.

[Donald Trump]

Arrived really to really pack into a very, very tight space.

[Eric Bolling]

Mostly peaceful. Mostly peaceful. Robert De Niro went on MSNBC to talk about Letitia James and let an F bomb slip during a deranged rant about Trump.

[Donald Trump]

Listen, I like what Letitia James is doing. She's fighting back. She's saying, you, I'm sorry, this is where we are. It's, she's saying, this is, this is it.

[Eric Bolling]

I will not be taken down by this person.

[Donald Trump]

I am not afraid of him.

[Eric Bolling]

God bless De Niro. Potty mountain. Darren went on later blaming the media for Trump's success. He claimed on MSNBC that Trump is doing so well because the media can't tell the truth. Let's listen.

[Donald Trump]

Trying to signal to the people they reach, and I'm certainly not reaching those people on this program, but maybe through little soundbites and this and that, you know, the Internet and so on, they're trying to, they're used to seeing Trump do his stuff and they talk and they listen and that's the truth to them because they don't listen to anything else. Somewhere way out in the Midwest, somewhere out the out west and certain places, the rural places, that's the truth because he gets the airtime. And I think that we need more airtime, just more push against and not I wish that you can't do this in some ways, but that the news media could find ways to kind of ignore or take tamp down nonsense from Trump. It's just total nonsense. But those people out there listen to it and assume if it can be on the air and it's out there, it's the truth.

[Eric Bolling]

Mr. Were you watching the last four years under Joe Biden, how much they lied about his, his lack of ability to even understand where he was? The media lies. The media lied for Biden for four years. You're out of your mind. My orca saying that the border is secure. Crazy to go back to Leticia James for a minute. Chris Christie went on ABC and did his best to cover for Letitia. He smeared the Department of Justice and basically tried to absolve Letitia James of all responsibility. Take a listen to one left wing airhead trying to defend another. First off, let's just talk about the Letitia James prosecution specifically and I'll get to the broader point. We're talking about if even if you agree that she's guilty of something, which I think we have a long way to go on, that we're talking about a total loss of $1,800. 18,000. No, no, George, because that's 18,000 over the life of the loan. She's only had the loan for five years, so you can't charge somebody for something that they would have gotten 30 years from now. If she sold that house, she wouldn't get the entire benefit of the lower mortgage rate. Here's the difference between Trump 2 and Trump 1, and I'll say it more directly than Sarah did. This is no longer the Department of Justice is no longer the premier prosecuting office in America. What it is now is a capo regime who goes out and executes hits when directed by the don to do so. That's what it is.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

The season of retribution is in full, full throttle.

[Eric Bolling]

Now do Joe Biden's Department of Justice. And now do New York Attorney General. And now do Southern District of New York. Shall we do that? Chris Christie, you're a federal prosecutor. You know the drill. It's all bs. Trump's doing exactly to them what they did to him. Kamala Harris is claiming that Gen Z is afraid to have children because of something she's called climate anxiety. We heard this. Right now it's. It's like they all have the same talking points. Listen, they're experiencing what they've coined climate.

[Donald Trump]

Anxiety, which is their fear that because of changing in extreme weather, that the.

[Eric Bolling]

Future of their lives is very much at stake.

[Donald Trump]

My goddaughter, who's a junior in college.

[Eric Bolling]

Right now, was crying to me just.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Two days ago, worried about what is the world gonna.

[Eric Bolling]

All right, like on cue, my friends, four o'. Clock. The President of the United States loves him some four o' clock air time. We're gonna make way for Donald John Trump, President, United States, with. I don't know even though what this one's about, but we'll watch.

[Donald Trump]

Here we go. Look at all. Look at the people. Seriously, the biggest business people anywhere in the world. So I think it's a great tribute. Whatever they're teaching you, they're teaching you well, right? Thank you very much. Much. And welcome to the White House as we celebrate Diwali because they said there should be a very heavy emphasis on the V. Diwali, the beautiful Hindu festival of lights. And that's what it is. It's a great festival and it's amazing people. I'm pleased to be joined by the Director of the National Intelligence and A woman that's done a fantastic job. Tulsi Gabbard, wherever you may be. Tulsi and I. FBI Director Keshe Patel is really hitting his stride. Cash. Where's cash? He is hitting his stride. That's the way we like it. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon.

[Eric Bolling]

Harmeet.

[Donald Trump]

I'm right here, sir. Hi, Harmeet. And Pastor Paula White. She's been fantastic. She's been with us right from the beginning. We're greatly honored to be joined by the Indian Ambassador to the United States, Vinay Kwat. It's very nice. Pronounce it perfectly. Ah, that's what. Well, I wasn't too far off. And his wonderful wife. And thank you very much. It's a great honor to have you as well as a new ambassador to India. This is a nice, easy name. Sergio Gore. Congratulations, Sergio. You're going to do a fantastic job. And thanks as well to incredible Indian. American. American business leaders. The biggest in the world, really. If you look, if you look at these companies, what they've done, the biggest in the world. CEO of IBM, Arvind Krishna. And Arvind, congratulations. I know you're working hard on a couple of jobs that I'm watching and good luck with them. Right? Good luck. It's amazing what you've done. Chairman and CEO of Adobe. And that Adobe is big stuff. And that's you. Shanta Nu Narayan.

[Eric Bolling]

Thank you.

[Donald Trump]

Thank you very much. Nice to see you. Thank you very much. CEO of Micron Technology. We know what that is. Sanjay Marotta. Sanjay, nice to see you again. And CEO of Palo Alto Networks, Nikesh Arora. And I want to thank you very much for and great success. It's a hell of a group of people. And in addition to. To that, we have a lot of other tremendously successful people gathered on behalf of all Americans. Let me also extend our warmest wishes to the people of India. I just spoke to your prime Minister today. We had a great conversation. We talk about trade. We talk about a lot of things, but mostly the world of trade. He's very interested in that. Although we did talk a little while ago about let's have no wars with Pakistan. And I think the fact that trade was involved, I was able to talk about that. And we have no war with Pakistan and India. And that was a very, very good thing. But he's a great, he's a great person and he's become a great friend of mine over the years. In a few moments, we'll light the diya as a symbol of faith in the victory of light over darkness. It's a beautiful term. Light over darkness. That's what it's all about. That's knowledge over ignorance and good over evil. During Diwali, revelers recall ancient stories of enemies defeated, obstacles removed and captives freed. The glow of the Diya flame reminds us to seek the path of wisdom and to work with diligence and to always give thanks for our many blessings. And we do have many blessings. Everybody in this room has many blessings. And even the. I will say I'm not going to use the word fake news. I refuse to use. Media has some good blessings. One of the blessings is that you didn't have to stand in the mud outside anymore. You know, you now have a beautiful stone surface, the identical color of the White House. For years they had a stand when we had press conference in the mud because it was grass. And I decided to take care of that. So I think they appreciate it. As we look back in the past year for, and really look, look up to the next number of years and hopefully decades and centuries, we've got much to be thankful for. And think of it, a year ago we were a dead country. This country was a dead country, and now we're the hottest country anywhere in the world. These guys can testify to that because I know this. I watch their stock prices and they're like rocket ships, chips, right? Do they ever stop? Let's keep it that way. Let's not talk about it, right? Let's just keep it that way. It's amazing. We have more than $17 trillion here. Part of the reason, more than $17 trillion of investment pouring into the United States. It's going to be, I believe, over $20 trillion by the time the year is up. And as an example, the last administration, less than a trillion dollars in a period of their four year period, they had less than a trillion. We have, we're going to have $20 trillion. We have over $17 trillion already. That's investment coming in. And I think it's largely for two reasons. We had a good election on November 5th, but maybe more importantly, of course it wouldn't happen if that election result didn't happen. I think much more importantly, we have tariffs that you build in the United States. You don't have a tariff to pay. You build outside and you have to pay, pay a tariff. And we're taking in money at a level that no other country has ever seen. There's never been a country. I don't think, fellas, you agree with that. There's Never been a country with an investment in less than a year. Actually, to be exact, less than nine months of $17 trillion. Right. And I know you're all doing. You're all participating, aren't you? Huh? So that's really good stuff. The economy is roaring, the incomes are rising, and small business confidence is at the highest level in over a decade. So the confidence levels, which they do, which means something, they think over the last 10 years, I don't think they go beyond that. We have the highest level of confidence in our economy. Gasoline prices are way down. Grocery prices are way down. Energy prices are way down. Mortgage rates are down. We have a, a real stiff at the Federal Reserve. I can't help that, but he's going to be leaving soon. And inflation has been defeated. But even though his rates are too high, where we. The economy has been amazing. Our border is secure, totally secure. We had nobody, zero, nobody in the last four months coming through illegally, which is actually hard to believe because, you know, they give me those numbers, but essentially it would be just about nobody. They actually say zero. That's actually hard to believe. You have zero when you had millions pouring across a year and a half ago, two years ago. But they actually, we have it down to practically nobody. And they are coming in, but they're coming in legally. And we're forging peace all over the world. We're putting America first. We're getting everybody to sort of get along. And I just got a call from the Middle East. We're doing very well there. We have many, many countries, as you know, signed on to peace in the Middle east, and nobody thought they'd ever see that happening. The Hamas situation, where they're, they're pretty violent people, I would say that we could put that out in two minutes. We're giving them a chance. You know, they, they agreed that they'd be very good, very, very straight. They wouldn't be killing people. And they have killed people. That wasn't the deal we made. But if we, if they don't honor the deal, they'll be taken care of very quickly. But I'd rather not have to do that. But we have total peace in the Middle East. We have levels of friendship with everybody and every countries that hated each other now love each other. Nobody ever saw anything like it. I think you guys are pretty surprised over here, right? Barmeet Yaz? Surprised. But a lot of people are surprised. Are you guys surprised? Peace in the Middle east, you've been hearing about it for as long as you've been Alive. And it's been a lot longer than that. You're still pretty young. But we have peace in the Middle East. And so as we light the Diya, we look forward to a new year and a greater peace and a greater everything for all of us. And we want tremendous success, tremendous health. We're doing a lot at things in the world of health. And the autism situation is. Is just crazy when you think of it. And you go back 20 years, it was 1 in 20,000, and now it's 1 in 12. Is that hard to believe? When I hear that number, it's not even. It's not even believable. And we think we're a little. We think we're on to it. Bobby is doing a great job. And Dr. Oz, all them, they're really working hard. Nobody's ever said anything like that. And it's been a very important factor for me. I just say you got to focus on that. We think we have a lot of the answers. We've announced a lot of the answers, actually. But we're looking at many things. We've made tremendous progress, and maybe the thing we've done the best on is prices for our drugs. We have favorite nations now. We're other. Other nations, as you know, were paying a fraction, a small fraction of what we were paying. And this was. For many, many years, this was happening. This was set up 30 years ago where we were paying 10 times more, 12 times more, 5 times more, always tremendous numbers more. And I said, we're not doing that anymore. And the drug companies have agreed and the countries have agreed. Now, if I didn't have tariffs, I wouldn't have been able to get it. I said, well, if. If you don't agree, we're going to charge you tariffs for more than the equivalent amount. And amazingly, everybody agreed. So our drug prices are going to be coming down 100%, 200%, 300, 400, 500%. In some cases. A bill that cost $10 in London would cost $120. And think of it, $120 in New York or a place, any place in this country. A drug that cost $86 in Berlin cost $1300 in New York and throughout the United States, and we're not doing that anymore. So we're just not doing it anymore. So I just want to. And I think that's going to be. That's going to be huge for our, for our. Anything, Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, anything having to do with health, because the drug prices are going to be coming Down. And I tell the story of my last administration. My fourth year, I was so honored because I brought drug prices down. First time in 28 years. Prices were brought down by a certain amount. I'll tell you what the amount was in a second, but by a certain amount. And so at the beginning of the year to the end of the year, I actually brought down them down. First time in 28 years that happened. And the number was 18 of 1%. That's all I said. But I was proud because first time it ever happened and now I'm bringing prices down 600%, 700%, 900%, 200%. So I can't believe I actually had a news conference to celebrate 1/8 and 1/4 of 1%. But that was, you know, you learned, right? So we're doing. And you guys know more about favorite nations than anybody. So we're going favorite nations. We're demanding it and we've got it. And as you know, we had Pfizer, we had all, we had the big companies, they're all, they're all agreed or close to agreeing, but the countries have agreed to. Actually, the countries would be generally more difficult if we didn't have the power of tariffs. They wouldn't have agreed, agreed. They would have said, nope, you've got to pay 10 times more than we're paying. We were paying 10 and 12 times more than other countries for the exact same pill made in the exact same lab or factory. So it's an amazing thing. I think it's an absolute game changer. Nobody has ever even heard of anything like that. And you'll see the results over the next year, year and a half, and I think it's great. So I'd like to ask a person who's really been fantastic, fantastic. We'll ask a few of the people to say a few words. You're on international television, so don't get nervous. Cash, would you say a few words, please? You've done a fantastic job.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Well, thank you, Mr. President. It's an honor to be a first generation Indian American whose parents lawfully emigrated to this country. And under your leadership, so many more millions of Americans are living that dream.

[Donald Trump]

And to celebrate here in the Oval.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Office on Diwali, which you said rightfully so, is a triumph of good over evil, is just an incredible honor. It's incredibly humbling. Indian Americans around the world, and Indians around the world are thrilled that you are such a profound leader in sharing this diversity with the world. And we can't thank you enough and happy Diwali, sir.

[Donald Trump]

Well, thank you. Congratulations on everything. And how about a great company, IBM. He's taken this company from. It was a little troubled as I remember a few years ago, like 10 years ago, to being one of the hottest companies companies anywhere in the world. Arvind, could you say a few words? Thank you, Mr. President.

[Eric Bolling]

In the spirit of Diwali, we should.

[Donald Trump]

Also acknowledge all that the President and the administration is doing to really boost technology innovation and that leading to economic growth.

[Eric Bolling]

I want to point out people forget often how much public and private partnerships.

[Donald Trump]

In the United States have mattered to boost technology.

[Eric Bolling]

You look at semiconductors, you look at.

[Donald Trump]

Space, you look at the Internet, mobile and hopefully quantum down the road. So Mr. President, I'd like to thank you for all that you're doing to.

[Eric Bolling]

Boost our technology leadership.

[Donald Trump]

Well, you have done amazingly and I just think it's incredible. I know exactly what you've been through because it was a troubled company until you came along and you made it very untroubled. You made it a rocket ship. So I congratulate you. Thank you very much. We have a very, very great company, Adobe. And Shanta, could you say maybe a few words please? Sure. Thank you, Mr. President.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

And first, it's such an honor, you.

[Donald Trump]

Know, to be here in the Oval Office and to celebrate Diwali, which for all of us growing up, as you pointed out, was, you know, the victory over triumph over evil, light over darkness. I think what you're doing, Mr. President.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

To have peace and prosperity and investment.

[Donald Trump]

In this country is just amazing.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

And as a company, I think hopefully everybody here is using Photoshop in order.

[Donald Trump]

To take all these pictures. But I would really like to thank you for your leadership and we will continue to invest in the US to make sure that we continue to drive innovation. And your investment's been very large. So how much have you invested and do you plan to invest in the us? As far as our investment is concerned, it's all intellectual property. Property, it's people. So we make everything here. So that's the software that's good. And so we're a 20 billion dollar revenue company now.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

One of the largest software companies in.

[Donald Trump]

The world and headquarters is Silicon Valley.

[Eric Bolling]

So thank you.

[Donald Trump]

Fantastic job. How much are you investing? IBM? 150 billion over the next five years. 150 billion. That's good. Micron's doing pretty good. How's Micron doing? Okay, Mr. President, really great opportunity. Honored to be here today celebrating Diwali with these excellent peers of ours from the tech industry and Diwali stands for light, hope, renewal. And the United States is light to the rest of the world.

[Eric Bolling]

And particularly on the renewal piece. I just want to really applaud you and your team in terms of bringing.

[Donald Trump]

Renaissance semiconductor manufacturing here to the U.S. so we Micron is investing $200 billion. 200 billion.

[Eric Bolling]

$200 billion in leading edge memory manufacturing. And in the course of next few.

[Donald Trump]

Years, we have 40% of our manufacturing here in the US and this will add over the course of years, 90,000.

[Eric Bolling]

Jobs and one and a half trillion dollar impact to the economy.

[Donald Trump]

So we are very thankful to the support that we get from your team and Mr. President from you in terms of bringing memory here to the US.

[Eric Bolling]

And memory is key with AI today, right?

[Donald Trump]

You always talk about memory. I have a good memory. Those machines have a better memory, right? No matter what you do. Absolutely. That's fantastic. Really fantastic. Nickacia Palo Alto is a hot one and tomorrow about that. Go ahead please. Mr. President, thank you for having me here. And it's a pleasure and honor to.

[Eric Bolling]

Be able to celebrate Diwali with you.

[Donald Trump]

As my colleagues have said, this is triumph of good over evil and prosperity. And what you've done in the last nine months in terms of making the United States one of the most business friendly administrations and allowing us all opportunity to invest not just in technology, but in our people, it's just amazing. We are the largest cyber security company.

[Eric Bolling]

In the world and we just recently, just recently spent $25 billion in sourcing technology. So all cyber security is made in.

[Donald Trump]

The United States because we believe that the next bastion in the world is.

[Eric Bolling]

Going to be a cyber war. And we just want to make sure we are prepared as a country and we make sure all of our companies and our critical infrastructure.

[Donald Trump]

Fantastic job. It's amazing what you've done. And all of these people, to me, they mean two things. Big investment. But the big investment I like because of jobs. It's tremendous number of jobs that they've produced. Would you say a couple of things about your great company, please? Thank you.

[Eric Bolling]

Mr. President.

[Donald Trump]

I'm with Stone Point Capital Private Equity, which I'm sure you know. And we just raised a new eleven.

[Eric Bolling]

And a half billion dollar fund. And we obviously invest very heavily in financial services, financial services, technology.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

And so it's, it's actually an honor.

[Eric Bolling]

To be here in the Oval Office with you. And as a fellow Winkwood member too.

[Donald Trump]

I've always, it's always a pleasure to be with you. And I got to tell you, you're.

[Eric Bolling]

The best president that I've ever seen.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

And we're so proud of you.

[Donald Trump]

Thank you. I'm glad I asked him to say. Would you like to say something about the wage app you're doing right here? Anybody back here? They're all. These are all incredible people that everybody looks in the business world. Everybody looks up to him. Please, go ahead. You like to say something? Thank you for your. Thank you for your leadership. I love this. I did ask him. I'm running a tech business 21 years.

[Eric Bolling]

We build products on AI and machine learning.

[Donald Trump]

Thank you. And it's going great, right?

[Eric Bolling]

Yes.

[Donald Trump]

Good. How about over here we have some very unsy people. For me, how about saying a few words?

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Well, thank you, Mr. President. It's a tremendous honor to have supported you three times and been part of your administration. And on this day of the volley, I say on behalf of the United.

[Eric Bolling]

States Department of Justice that the message.

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Of the triumph of good over evil and knowledge over ignorance and justice over injustice is something that your administration is personifying. And it's a tremendous honor to be part of it. And thank you very much for including us here today.

[Donald Trump]

Good. And you're at the DOJ and doing a fantastic job, I hear.

[Eric Bolling]

That's right.

[Donald Trump]

She's doing a good job, Kash. And Chelsea Winnow is doing a good job. What do you think, Tuls?

[Sheriff Chad Bianco]

Fantastic. Thank you all very much. Anybody like to say anything or would you like to say something, please? Mr. President, let me start first of all by expressing a deep sense of gratitude for opening up White House Oval Office, your home, to Mak Diwali's Festival of Lights, which is celebrated by over one fifth of humanity. And as Kash said, you are showcasing the strength of diversity through the celebration. So it's truly a great honor and thank you very much for that. May I also, on behalf of my prime minister and my own behalf, wish you and your loved one a very, very happy Diwali greetings, particularly to over 5 million strong Indian diaspora in the US and may I close by making A wish which is normally we do for Diwali. We wish that the light of Diwali continues to shine on your success and on the strength of India U.

Thank you, Mr. President. So we're supposed to light something, but I thought maybe because he's had such an outstanding year, I'm going to ask Arvind to maybe do the honors. Can you handle it from here? I think you like to do a better job than me, so if you could take care of that, it'd be great. Well, he's done a good job. I didn't know you were supposed to do that. I'm glad I asked.
