NASDAQ was the strongest of the three. I have it up 107. I don't know. Maybe mad. Let's see what happens if we refresh that screen. Let's see what happens. See what we pull it away, put it back up. The numbers change. Let's see what happens. Let's take a peek. There it is. See that? Refreshed 107. Nasdaq down 68. Gold is up $50 an ounce, folks. $50 to the ounces. They say look at that number below. Oil down $2 and 50 cents. That is good news for markets. Jump over to crypto. This is a good one. I'm loving this today. Crypto market was very strong. Bitcoin all the way up to 114, 300. We left Friday, it was 109, 000 and change. It's been getting beat up. This is one nice move up today. Ethereum up good across the board. XRP and we always talk about Croatia. All strong in the crypto markets. All right, let's do this. Let's move on. Next guest started out as an investigative journalist and anchor woman in Mexico who was the target of an assassination attempt for denouncing organized crime, cartels and government corruption. She's carried on this fight to rid Mexico of crime. Has called out Mexican President Chaibaum and the Moreno regime for their alliance between government and the cartels. Very happy to have Senator Tilly Tellez Lilly tell us, I should say along with our RAV border correspondent Oscar Ramirez with us. Welcome Senator and welcome Oscar. I'm going to start with you Oscar, very quick. Thank you so much for bringing Senator tell us to the show. We've been talking a lot about what's going on with cartels in Mexico. Get to you in one second, Oscar. Update us. Last we saw you was Friday. We had Trish McLaughlin on any news of the cartels? Any. What's the latest on you? Everyone wants to know what's going on with Oscar. Everything is okay. Everything is under security and we have been doing some multiple reportings on what is going on on the mass graves on the east side of the city of Tijuana which the cartel continues to operate. Ms. Sallas is going to openly talk about how she has been a Mexican hero fighting against the corrupt government inside of our country of Mexico and also fighting against the violence that is coexisting right now in our country. Let me speak to you, Senator, if I may. And I'm just going to speak very concisely and slowly because I want you to understand because I know there's maybe some a bit of a language barrier. Senator, are you nervous because you've pushed back against the cartels, you've pushed back against Sheinbaum, the President? Are you concerned for your safety and your well being, as I believe Oscar is or should be? Hello, Eric. Thank you for having me. Thank you for this invitation. Well, of course I am nervous human being and this is a very dangerous country. Me as an opposition, even when I was a reporter, journalist. But I am a Catholic and I have faith in God and I know I have to go on in this fight to help my country, Mexico from the, the denouncing the corruption and this kind of association, criminal association with the cartels and the government. So I won't step back. I'm a little. Well, of course, I'm afraid, but I'm a human being as I tell you. But I won't step back. I have faith in God that I am doing what is right. Senator, tell us the position you are in. In other words, here in the United States, there's the President, there's the Senate and there are the House of Representatives. Basically the power structure of government here. Do senators in Mexico have a similar level of power as US Senators? President having the ultimate power. Senators are pretty much next to the President as far as powers and control of government. No, no, in Mexico, senators, we don't have that kind of power now in Mexico it's like monarchy. This is not a republic anymore. That is very important for people to know Mexico is not a republic anymore because the President just robbed the Supreme Court and all the lower courts with a false majority, with a majority that is not real. And she is the boss of all the senators of her party and she is now the boss of all the judges, of all the judiciary in Mexico and she is also the president. So we don't have in my country a republic anymore. She is following the steps of Venezuela. The next thing she is going to do is take away, she wants to take away, of course, the media to control everything because the reality is getting through the social, through TikTok, through Twitter, Instagram, you know. But she is very worried. She doesn't want Mexicans to see what's happening in Mexico. So she's going to do what the Venezuelan dictator did that's to take all of the media to continue telling lies to Mexico. She is constantly telling Mexicans that the United States wants to invade our country, and that's a lie. So now do I understand it correctly, that the cartel actually have people within your government, almost like plants to sway your government, maybe even shine bombing. Why is she so deferential to the cartel? When President Trump says, we'll send military, we'll send help, and she says, no, no, no, we don't need it. Clearly you need it. Oscar Ramirez right here has shown us mass graves, dead people, refrigerators dumped with bodies thrown on the side of the road. We're going to show some of this stuff. There's clearly a problem with the cartels, their murderous ways. But why does Sheinbaum refuse to take to help the assistance of the US Government? Because there is a real association between the cartels and the government. The cartels are so rich. It's such a huge quantity of money they have. They give this money to the political candidates of the left of her party, of Morena Pache. So when they get into office, when they have the power they have to protect the cartels. And that is the truth. That is why she doesn't want more help from the United States. She even called me a traitor, and all her party is calling me a traitor just because I said that Mexico is that Mexicans are okay with help to fight cartels. The crime in Mexico is so high, the country is so dangerous, and the association between the cartels and the government is so deep, is so deep in the government that even that here in Mexico, we have armed forces to fight against it. There is not the order from the president. The president in Mexico is the supreme chief of the armed forces, and she doesn't give the orders to go against it. Clearly she doesn't. She even has in the Senate, the leader of the Morena party is linked with a very dangerous cartel, and she supports him in the Senate. This is crazy to have. I mean, this man sits just a few meters from me, and we all know. So you're sitting in a room as a fellow senator with a leader of one of the cartels. That is. That's wild. Can I ask you where she is on the mass immigration that's happening that, you know, from Central and South America that passed through Mexico into our country. Does she have any interest in stopping that flow? Well, just a few months ago, there was a communication from the United States here in Mexico asking Mexicans not to go to the United States as illegal migrants. Because they said that Trump was going to be tough on illegal migrants. And she was very angry that this message was sent through national TV in Mexico. And I wonder why doesn't she want the Mexicans to know that if they go illegally to the United States, they are going to face the law, they are going to face justice, and they are going to get back to Mexico and that is illegal. So she wants the money that migrants make in the United States to come to Mexico and she doesn't want the Mexican forces to really stop the cartels of the cartels who get illegal migrants from Mexico and Central America and South America to the United States. There are many corridors, illegal corridors in the border, in the border, in states like Baja California, Sonora, Tamaulipas, that they are doing such a huge amount of money trafficking with persons to the United States. Right. Allow me to jump in, if I may, Senator, tell is we've had Oscar on. I brought in the deputy secretary of Department of Homeland Security who's concerned for Oscar. You tell me, is Oscar or his family in imminent danger? Given what we know that the cartels or someone who was armed, couple of armed thugs showing up trying to enter his and we're showing the video, enter his community. Is he in danger? Oscar is in danger, of course. And we must notice that Mexico is one of the most dangerous countries in the world for journalists. There are so many journalists killed in Mexico. And in front of Shamebone, no one can dare to tell the truth in this country because she gets mad and all the government goes against you. And there are so many territories. There was an ambassador, an American ambassador in Mexico that said that some years ago that a huge part of the Mexican territory is controlled by cartels. We all Mexicans know about, but families cannot speak it out loud. It's amazing. They have to speak it in their homes. It's amazing. Oscar is in danger. I just want, I want to tell you we're going to get short on time very quickly. Oscar, Oscar, you hear her? She says you're in danger. Please, please take care of you and your family also. Oscar, do you think the senator is in danger for speaking out like this very quickly? You know, she's the only one that is speaking out in Mexico. She's the only one that has been exposing this. That's why Mexicans need to support her 100% more than exposing the leaders of the cartels. She's exposing dirty politicians. That the number one thing that nobody has had the courage to do so. Lilithe, we need to support her. She is the only hope for our country to continue to move forward and to continue to fight this leftist narrative that it wants to take us to this agenda like exactly like Venezuela that she's exactly saying. All right, we're have to leave it there. We want both of you guys to be safe. And I will if you're. With your permission, Senator, add your name when we talk to the Department of Homeland Security again on Oscar's behalf to. To keep both of you folks in their sights. Because I just don't want you to put risks. It's important what you do. But we don't want your lives at risk. Senator. Lily, tell us. Mexican Senator. Thank you. Oscar Ramirez. L Blue. Thank you both so much. Stay safe. You too. Thank you so much. All right folks, when inflation jumps. When you hear the national debt is over $37 trillion. Well, maybe.

That's an interesting concept. That's not is it medical? Is it, is it biochemical? It's really not medical. In other words, there's no like receptors in your brain that that testosterone effects that are like called the whatever the pleasure or enjoyment receptors. So when you exercise or whatever.

The former chief of U.S. border Patrol was Customs and Border Protection's acting Deputy commissioner and was nominated by President Trump in 2018 to be ICE director. He's the only person to have led both ICE and CBP for Homeland Security. Happy to have back Ron Vidiello. Ryan, would love to just continue the conversation we just had with Oscar L. Blue Ramirez, our reporter for rab, but also the Mexican state, Mexican senator, the senator of the state of Mexico who basically says the cartels are running things from inside the Senate and are like this with Sheinbaum, what goes through your mind when you hear a commentary like that? Well, God bless them both. Right? They're both sticking their necks out. I've never seen a Mexican politician at that level talk about their own government that way. And I don't know what party she's in or how it compares to the party that's in power. But we know that corruption in Mexico is endemic. You know, whether it reaches Los Pinos, the equivalent of their White House, or Sheinbaum herself, it's quite likely. I mean, I don't know this for a fact, but I can tell you that that party and her predecessor, what they call, who they call amlo, you know, he had an absolute hands off policy with cartels in Mexico. That was his stated objective in public. He said it out loud. He praised Joe Biden for not building border wall and said that Joe Biden was famous for being the migration president. So he clearly did not believe in the rule of law and was either afraid or in the pocket of the cartels and didn't want that relationship that he had with them, regardless of its effect in Mexico because it worked for him politically. Maybe they paid whoever, whatever it is. And we know these cartels over the last four years of Joe Biden made enormous sums of money trafficking people through the country up to the United States. They're still indenturing people that live in the United States that are working off they're being trafficked in the US and we know the stories are legion about fentanyl and the cartel's effect and bringing this poison into the U.S. yeah, it's AMLO. You talking about Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, if I'm not mistaken, former president of Mexico, who, if you read enough, you realize that he probably was in bed, so to speak, with the cartels, but feels like Sheinbaum may be in a similar position. It's almost like if I don't know if antifa held seats even higher than at the Senate level, maybe even were in the president's cabinet by somehow some quirk of law here in the United States. I'm very concerned for both of their lives. Should I not be? No, absolutely. They are taking huge risks in speaking publicly, having public profiles in a place where, you know that those cartels will seek to silence them, either politically or actually physically. Unbelievable. All right, so tell us a little bit about where we stand with things here. Now, we were into deportations, then they were stopped. They're deemed. A lower court deemed them illegal, and the higher court said, no, they're legal. Where are we? Do the deportations continue? I think we've been sidetracked a little with, you know, Charlie Kirk's assassination, whatnot. But when we get back to what is really boots on the ground, so to speak, in America, the important things, immigration and crime. Where are we? What's the latest? Well, the American first agenda is proceeding according to plan. You know, the physical border is safer than it's ever been. With the resources from the entirety of the US Government. Department of War, Department of Justice, hhs, the Department of State, obviously the Department of Homeland Security, under the leadership of Kristi Noem. The physical border looks better than it has in my entire lifetime. I've been around this business 40 years. It's never been as safe. I was just in McAllen last week on the South Texas border, and things look really good. The agents are super motivated to get out and do their job because they're allowed now to do their job. The policy set forth by the president is working, allowing the physical border to be safer than it's ever been. By last count, there's about 2 million people who have been deported from the United States since the President took office on January 20th. Now, that's not enough, considering what happened in the previous four years, but ISIS scaling up every single day. They're getting better at what they do. CBP is helping them both in the interior and, you know, having the intelligence and the targeting to find the worst of the worst and continue these operations in the interior all over the United States. If you get arrested in the interior now, you get sent back to where you're from. It's going to be really hard for you to come back. We've already locked down, you know, the legitimate travel into the U.S. crossing the border was pretty easy until January 20, 2025, and now it's much more difficult to do. If you do it, you're likely to get caught. You will be prosecuted thanks to the help we're getting from the Department of Justice. And you'll be removed quickly thanks to the State Department and our brothers at ICE that are, that are scaling up detention and removal capabilities every single day. Ron Trump sent some National Guard to port in Oregon. What the hell's going on in Oregon? First of all, because that was a scene of countless protests in 2020 and all that nonsense that went on. But there's a temporary restraining order given by a lower court judge to stop Trump's moving into, into Oregon. Where, where do you think things will eventually land with this one? Well, the history here is quite evident, right? Antifa controls Portland. The leadership in Portland leans Uber left. And they allowed in the previous administration, Antifa and Antifa allies to take over the ICE headquarters in Portland, Oregon. During the first term. It took the city over $9 million to rehabilitate the site around that building once federal troops or once federal government got it back under control and the city stabilized. The biggest problem here right now, or right there now, is that the police department does not have the support that they need to put these riots in their place, to put these rioters in jail and hold them to account for their harassment of federal officers. Now, the DHS deployment and the federal deployment will continue in Portland, in Eugene, in Seattle, in Chicago and Los Angeles. We're going to keep doing that. I'm sure. This is a temporary setback in the court with regard to the federalization of the National Guard. We have to protect the men and women of the front line or they're going to do the work that the president has asked them to do. And let's face it, this is law. These are laws that are on the books. Donald Trump didn't change immigration law when he came into office. He just enforced it in a way that's beneficial to the most, for all of Americans. It's the most beneficial president we've had as it relates to border security and immigration enforcement. I just have a second for you to react, but here's what I don't get. It's in the US penal. It's in the US code right here, the criminal codes, right? 18 US criminal code, 1505, section 1505 title code. United States Amendment says forbids anyone from corruptly or by threats of force or by any threatening communication, influencing, obstructing or impeding any pending proceeding before department or agency United States punishable by up to five years in jail. What the hell are we waiting for? We should be arresting all of these garbage protests. They're impeding a fed, they're impeding ice. Doing their jobs. Yeah, you have to scale up the system that's in place. Those people will be arrested. Once the National Guard can secure the facility, those federal officers will be able to do their jobs without being impeded. And those that will impede will be arrested. There's no question in my mind about that. This is a temporary setback. Help is on the way. Portland. All right, Ron, we're going to leave it right there. Ron, Vidiella, appreciate your time. Good having you on, my friend. Thank you. Thank you. All right, folks, two and a half minutes. Be right back. Stop settling for weak sound. It's time to level up your game and bring the boom.

So Eric Adams in New York finally does what's right for the city of New York and dropped. Drops out of the mayoral race. Now we keep fighting for the city no matter what, from city hall or beyond. Drops out leaving behind Marxist jihadist sympathizer Zoran Mamdani and of course Andrew Cuomo, the guy who lied about killing grandparents in the pandemic. Big trouble, New York. Let me tell you about this here because while, I don't know, while ago, everyone was enjoying the weekend, right? Terrorist sympathizers gathering in an American city to plot their eventual takeover and their love for terrorist attacks that kill hundreds of people. They even featured a full grown member of Congress. That's right, Ro Khanna was in the House, so to speak. And literally. Oh, and in case you were wondering, this America hating woman is still in Congress too. You'll have people who say, you shouldn't have a Muslim in Congress. I have first Amendment protection to practice whatever religion I want. There is a lot of hate in this country for Muslims. There's a lot of hate in this country for black people, especially black women. And there is a lot of hate, severe hate for immigrants. And so I fit them all. CAIR was founded after 911 because they recognize that some people did something. Our country should be more fearful of white men across our country because they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country. Okay, Yep. We are in trouble, folks. And we need to take things seriously. Seriously. This is not Pakistan. This is Niagara Falls right here. Niagara Falls just outside of New York. They're calling for what? Listen, Genocide, jihad. They're looking for a holy war. This is not Somalia. This is the middle of America. Minneapolis, right here. And by the way, while we're at it, let's check out Dearborn, Michigan, where a majority of the population is Muslim and supports sharia law over U.S. constitutional law. What I'm talking about is about to show you. Took place in Dearborn this past weekend, an openly pro terror conference filled with explicitly pro terrorism speakers which happened to have been attended by several Democrat members of the U.S. congress. Well, here's just a little nibble. Raise your hand if you're a pro terror radical. Do you condemn October 7th? Yeah, I condemn Israel and the United States and all oppressions and imperial wars. That's what I'm talking about. That was an easy answer. I never ever condemn Palestinian resistance and anyone resistance around the world. Those who are here and who also are around the world. Write it up. Yeah, right over there. That was. That was Ro Khanna, you know, a sitting member of Congress sharing a stage with people who condone terrorism. Nothing to see here, folks. Just like this right here. The police chief of Dearborn, Michigan, speaking in Arabic. When I joined the department, Dearborn's Arab American population was nearly 50%, yet less, yet less than 3% of our police. Now, a department that reflects and embraces the community it serves, with 45% of our officers being Arab American, I'm proud to serve as your chief of police. It's not long before cities are pushing for Sharia law. Watch, watch. And their twisted values right here in America. Take a look at this story. National Health Services in the uk, the nhs, as they're called. While they're apparently touting the benefits of marrying your cousin that's prevalent among the massive Pakistani population, the UK has insisted on importing because they feel guilty about being an imperialist country centuries ago. And how well has that worked out for them, you may ask? Well, not very well at all, actually. You see, turns out that when you import thousands of people with entirely different values who have no interest whatsoever in assimilating to your society, it doesn't work out too well for your country and your current citizens. And since 55% of Pakistani Muslims marry their first cousins. I said that right. The UK has decided to placate this barbaric practice, one that was outlawed centuries ago in Western civilization, and make it seem like it's good for economy and culture. Incest is good, they say, in order to make these people feel nice and comfy in their new country. And you may ask yourself, but Eric, why should I care about what's happening in the uk? Well, because the leftists and progressives right here are always just a step behind the madness happening on the other side of the Atlantic. And there are too many of them in power and vying for power in our cities and state governments and in Congress, by the way, like this. Why does a Democrat candidate for City council in New York need to film her campaign video in New York? Again in Arabic. Medina, New York, the Bay Ridge, Coney Island, Seagate, Widjazette, Bath Beach, Wadecker Heights, Lemi. Is this not America anymore? Is English not the official language? Oh, yes, it is. Am I missing something here? Minnesota mayoral candidate Omar Fatah uses Next this Next 0 English in his campaign. Listen to him. Not a word of English getting things done like tuition free college, Dignay gang, Uber and Lyft drivers. I mean, why even speak English in America, right? And the front runner in New York City mayoral race not only wants to spend $100 million more dollars on legal fees for illegals, but also condones a terrorist organization. Some New Yorkers say that they don't hear you as often condemn Hamas or talk about bringing the hostages home. So today, do you agree with Mr. Netanyahu's statement that Hamas is a terror organization that needs to be destroyed? And if you could speak the way he did on loudspeakers today to the 20 living hostages, what would your message be? I am not going to echo the words of Benjamin Netanyahu. I can, however, share my own words and say them right here, which is that my politics is built on a universal. And I can think of no better illustration of that than from the words of the hostage families themselves. Everyone for everyone, huh? Using the words of hostage families against them.

Before I started the program, I lost 20 pounds doing like Atkins or the Carnivore Diet. But I was crippled and I feel amazing. Now. I'm running around like I'm 30 again. My blood pressure went from 159 over 95 to 129 over 82 and I feel great. And, and Marty, what was the shift that made you decide to go from doing that Carnivore Atkins diet to doing this? Because I was losing weight, but I still felt like crap. It was getting the point where I couldn't get in and out of my truck. Even as I'm losing weight. I just everything hurt. My knees hurt, my shoulders hurt. Everything hurt. It's been amazing. Well, we see the rise of the Carnivore Diet by the way, Joe Rogan swears by it in the steady influence of the keto diet on health programs. While some people report quick results, other crash hard or feel worse over time. Let's bring in founder of Energized Health to find out why that is. Welcome, John Jubilee. So, John, why do you believe diets aren't sustainable for long term healing? Yeah, well, this is one of those things, right? Like we, we, we've all, we've all, we've all tried that, you know, we've all, we've all tried the diet, you know, and you know, I have a saying that every diet works for a minute, but they're not sustainable, you know, and the reality is, is, you know, thank God we got RFK in here trying to clean up the food supply because, you know, with the food that we're eating, you know, reading a lot of toxins and inflammatory things, you know, in our body. So all that's part of it. But you know what, I love to just take the off ramp. You know, there's another way to do this, which is the intracellular hydration. And that's why our hundred percent focus, it's, it's not on the diet, you know, it really is on the intracellular hydration. Because then even if you are getting some of those toxins and inflammatory food, it's just like a beautiful healthy river that will just flush that out of people's body. And that's why, that's the long term key to success, is to focus on your intracellular hydration. You're never going to get away from 5G, from toxins, you know, from everything. It's going to take a while. It's even the end of 2026, right, that the food is going to change. But you can take care of your cellular hydration and make your body like a river of living water. All right, so you talk about intercellular hydration. It also helps you absorb nutrients, right? If you're cutting out certain food groups, you'd have to replace it. How does that work? Yeah, no, that's a, that's the thing. So just picture your, your cell as hard as a glass marble. So even when you try to eat a super healthy diet or drink a lot of water, it's all just bouncing off of that cell because that cell is hard as a glass marble through oxidative stress and cortisol and all the things we've been exposed to. And this is what our patent pending science is, our patent pending science opens that cell up like this so the nutrients can get in the Hydration can get in. And just as importantly, it pushes out the toxins and the inflammation out of the cell. And that's really what we all need. We need healthy cells. If your cells are healthy, everything is healthy. Interesting. And the best way to do this. And how does it break the seal, get. How does the hydration get into the cell? Well, that's several thousand pages of science. It's in the patent. But just to. But just to let people know, you know, God made us a wondrously. We have two membranes. You know, one, two. You have two membranes that are surrounding your cell. They oxidize again, they get hard like glass. And this is what nobody could figure out. And that's why we filed a patent on. Hey, John, I have to do. I hate to do this to you. I'm getting yelled at. And we have Vice President J.D. vance at the microphone. Sir, hold on. In other words, you don't put a gun to the American people's head and say, unless you do exactly what Senate and House Democrats want you to do, we're going to shut down your government. That's exactly what they're proposing out there. Now, we have to remember they're very frustrated. They say that they're very frustrated about the fact that this negotiation has not taken place until today. But if you look at the original thing they did with this negotiation, it was a $1.5 trillion spending package, basically saying to the American people, we want to give massive amounts of money, hundreds of billions of dollars to illegal aliens for their health care while Americans are struggling to pay their health care bills. That was their initial foray into this negotiation. We thought it was absurd. We told them it was absurd. And now they come in here saying that if you don't give us everything that we want, we're going to shut down the government. We thought, we think that's preposterous. We think it's totally unacceptable. And we think the American people are going to suffer because these guys will do the right thing. Now, I want to make one final point here. You will hear a lot from Senate Democrats, from House Democrats about the fact that American health care policy is broken. Well, we know that American health care policy is broken. We've been trying to fix it for the eight months that we've been in office. But every single thing that they accuse about being broken about American health care is popular that Democrats have supported for the past decade. So if they want to talk about how to fix American health care policy, let's do it. The speaker would love to do it. The Senate Majority Leader would love to do it. Let's work on it together. But let's do it in the context of an open government that's providing essential services to the American people. That's all that we're proposing to do. And the fact that they refuse to do that shows how unreasonable their position is. I think we're headed to a shutdown because the Democrats won't do the right thing. How I hope they change their mind. But we're going to see. I'll let the speaker say a few words. Thank you, Vice President Vance. I want to thank the President as well. They showed strong leadership today. They invited the four leaders over here because the President is operating in good faith and he demonstrated that very well. The problem is that Chuck Schumer and Peter Jeffries refused to acknowledge the simple facts. Let's review what the simple facts are. As the Vice President would say, this is the common sense thing to do. This is the right thing to do. This is the simple thing to do. By way of review, the House is getting back to the way the regular appropriations process is supposed to work. Twelve separate appropriations bills pass through the House Appropriations Committee. Three off the floor, the Senate doing their work as well. All this in bipartisan fashion. By the way, they passed three bills in the Senate. Those bills don't match up exactly. So for the first time in years, since 2019, you have a conference committee that is being constituted between the House and the Senate. This is the way a bill becomes a law. They work out the differences. All this is happening in bipartisan fashion. The problem is we've run out of clock. September 30th is the end of the fiscal year. So we need a little more time. So what we did in the Republican majority is the right, responsible, simple thing. A clean continuing resolution. A short term, non partisan continued resolution. It's only 24 pages in length. Peter Thune has a copy if you want to see the exhibit. There's nothing partisan in here, no policy riders, none of our big party preferences, because we want to do the right thing by the American people and allow more time for negotiation. Now, there's a reason that Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have come out here, stomped the feed, saying that they can't go along with this. They're trying to bring in extraneous issues. They issued a counter proposal. You should go take a look at what they requested. $1.5 trillion in new spending that is unrelated to the ongoing appropriations process. They wanted to, as you said, restore Taxpayer funded benefits, okay, Hard working taxpayers in America, they want to take your funds and give that for benefits to illegal aliens. They want to restore that because we got rid of them. They want to prop up left leaning media outlets. 500 million they threw in on top of that $1.5 trillion on a seven week stopgap funding measure. We're not going to do that. They know we can't do that and we never have in the past. During the Biden administration, there were 13 threatened shutdowns. The Republicans and the minority did the right thing. We kept the government open. We're simply asking for the Democrats to do the same again. I want to thank President Trump for the strong, solid leadership. He listened to the argument arguments and they just wouldn't acknowledge the simple fact. I want to thank the Vice President here for showing his leadership as well. If the Democrats make the decision to shut the government down, the consequences are on them. And I think it's absolutely tragic. We've never said that was a good idea. We never believed it is. And I want you to remember when we voted in the House, we passed it out of the House. The House has done its job. We did that almost two weeks ago. Every Democrat in the House, House, except one, voted to shut the government down. That is the record and don't forget it. This right here, ladies and gentlemen, is what we're talking about. 24 pages, continuing resolution to fund the government through November 21st. I don't know where they're saying this is some huge partisan thing. This is something we do fairly routinely. And when the Democrats had the majority of the, on 13 different occasions, they had the majority. President Biden was in the White House. We passed continuing resolutions to fund the government. This is purely and simply hostage taking on behalf of the Democrats. Republicans are united. House Republicans, Senate Republicans, President Trump. The House has passed a clean funding resolution from the government until November 21st. It's clean, it is by bipartisan and it is short term. But it gives us enough time to finish the appropriations process, which is the way we should be funding the government. So Republicans in the House, Senate President united, they passed the bill. This is sitting right now at the Senate desk. We could pick it up and pass it tonight, we could pick it up and pass it tomorrow before the government shuts down and then we don't have a government shutdown. It is totally up to the Democrats because right now they are the only thing standing between the American people and the government shutting down. We're all in favor of funding the government and this is something that's been done routinely 13 different times by the Democrats when they have the majority. So to me, this is purely a positive taking exercise on the part of the Democrats. We are willing to sit down and work with them on some of the issues they want to talk about, whether it's an extension of premium tax credits with reform. We're happy to have that conversation. But as of right now, this is a hijacking of the American people, and it's the American people that are going to pay the price. Mr. Vice President, we want to keep this government open. It is not good for the American people to have the government shut down for any period of time. We will manage it appropriately. But it is something that can all be avoided. It can all be avoided by accepting a reasonable position, which is what the House has passed and the sits at the Senate desk, which is to continue to fund the government with a short term continuing resolution. It has never been a viewpoint that one and a half trillion dollars is a reasonable amount of spending to be included on a short term cr. This is hostage taking. It is not something that we are going to accept. And we hope that the Democrats come back to the brink, fund this government and allow us to move forward. Thank you, Mr. Vice President. So just to be clear, is there room for negotiation here with Democrats and you mentioned you believe that we are headed toward a government shutdown. Is the federal government preparing to fire federal workers if the government does indeed shut down? Well, first of all, we have to keep essential services functioning as well as possible if the Democrats shut down the government. And Russ is been tasked with making sure that's possible. Now, you asked about negotiations. One of the things I admired about the President, but frankly, the entire team's approach during the conversation we just had with Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries was, you know, yeah, they have some crazy ideas. Giving taxpayer money to illegal aliens for health care, that's a crazy idea. Funding transgender surgeries in Peru, that's a crazy idea. But they had some ideas that I actually thought were reasonable, and they had some ideas that the President thought was reasonable. What's not reasonable is to hold those ideas as leverage and to shut down the government unless we give you everything that you want. There were multiple times where Leader Jeffries or Leader Schumer would say, you know what, we should be doing this. And the President of the United States would say, yeah, absolutely, let's have that conversation. But we're going to do it in the context of the people's government being open. We're not going to let you take the people's government hostage and then give you everything that you want. And that's really the state of the negotiation. Yeah, let's have a conversation. Let's have a negotiation. But we're not going to shut down the government because we won't give the Democrats everything that they want. Mr. Magnus Dalio, can you respond to what Senator Shuber said, that there were aspects about health care ending for certain people that the president was learning about for the first time in that meeting. And was the president open to a deal on the ACA subsidies? Mr. Well, I'm highly skeptical that the president was learning about it for the first time, thanks to Chuck Schumer. But what I will say is, look, we have put a $50 billion rural hospital fund into the actual, the big beautiful bill that we passed a few months ago because we know that under Biden administration's policies, there are a lot of small town hospitals, a lot of rural health care that was getting shut down and that was struggling. We're trying to fix that problem. In fact, we're happy to work with Democrats to fix that problem. We want to work across the aisle to make sure that people have access to good health care. We are not going to let Democrats shut down the government take a hostage unless we give them everything that they want. That's not how the people's government has ever worked. That's certainly not how it's going to work under the Trump administration. This is very important on healthcare. Their counterproposal, what Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are demanding is that they claw back the $50 billion that we put into the rural hospital support structure. They want to take that back. We're not going to do that. We passed that because we have to allow for that. Also, if they shut the government down, not only are troops unpaid federal workers and all the services that everybody relies upon, but the WIC program, the nutrition program, women, infant and children, they will not get that program will not be funded. FEMA won't be funded. We have hurricanes off the coast of the United States right now. This is serious business. You have telehealth, you have mental health services. All that that's funded by the government would stop if Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries and the Democrats have their way. The Democrat shutdown would be damaging for the country. We can't allow for was there any mention of passing a shorter cr? So we take these things because we like to take politicians talking. I Have a few opinions on this, since this is my moment here. Number one, we've told never negotiate with terrorists. Democrats are playing terrorism right now. Don't negotiate with them. Number two, shut the damn thing down. I think I speak for a lot of people. Shut down. Stop this game of, oh, if we shut down, it's their fault. If we shut down, it's their fault. Shut the damn thing down. Or how's this? Fire 800,000 Democrats that work in federal government. There's about 2.4 million people who work in the federal government. Fire a third of them. Make sure they're all Democrats. See if they want to negotiate. Then this game of trying to fool the public into, oh, we're working for you. While we make government bigger and bigger and bigger. Trillion dollars. Stopgap spend. Trillion dollar stopgap spending. Are you nuts? You think we're stupid? You're just putting a trillion more dollars into the federal government. Stop it or you're doing us a favor. Don't think for a second if they stop government, shut it down that those jerks aren't going to get paid for the period of 10, 20, 30 days, however long it's shut down till one side blinks. They get paid. Those jerks get paid. You're just listening to. No offense to our vice president, but I am tired of politicians headed up to here with them. Both sides of the aisle. Shut the damn thing down. You got the House, you got the Senate, you got the White House. Shut it down. Blame them. Tell them we'll reopen government when they're ready to come to the bargaining table with real proposals. Sorry. I digress. Ben. Hello, Ben. How are you? Hello, Eric. I'm doing well. How are you? You got a sound bite for us to play? I'll listen to it while I try and calm down. I do. We have. You want to go voicemails? Sure. Yeah. So we have a viewer asking why the Secret Service didn't go to the escalator. Go for it. Yeah, hey, Eric, it's Michelle from Jupiter. I have a little cold. But when the escalated stop. When the escalators stopped at the un why didn't the Secret Service move in? Okay, Melania moved. How come nobody surrounds him? How come he just seems to be like a sitting duck? And when he went into the restaurant in D.C. i mean, those girls got three courses of free Palestine now before they did anything. You're right. You are so right. Remember that video where Malani gets on? Donald Trump's right behind him. The escalator stops There are people coming down the escalator on the other side. Dangerous? Could be. Who knows what a terrorist is looking to take out the president. You're 100% right. And he did. He went to Joe's Seafood in dc. Been there a hundred times. Politicians go there all the time. I've seen Thune in there. I've seen Lindsey Graham in there. That place should be a lot more secure than when the President walks out. And you have some pro Palestinian terrorists. Pro terrorist people. They should be kept far away from the President. I don't know. They gotta beef it up a little bit. All right. How about another one, Benny? Sure. We have a viewer has some questions about the Amish community. Hey, Eric, we are out in Edmond, Oklahoma. We sure do enjoy. Listen to you, Diane. And Max Stewart's our name. Just thinking that next time there's an opportunity, someone maybe could put a bug in RFK's ear. And the President said on all this stuff to do with autism and the vaccinations and everything, check with the Amish community. They don't vaccinate. And they. My understanding is they don't have any autism and a lot of the other childhood diseases, they just don't have it. Rather than run test and have groups that, you know, go for years and years trying to get to the bottom of this, just take data from that group. Anyway, thanks again for all you do. Bye. Well, thank you for the call. And I did. I looked into it and you're right. Well, they. They generally don't vaccinate because they have medical exemptions. And they. The incidences of autism in the Amish community. This is a big study. About 10 years ago, something like 2,000Amish people are studied. The instance of autism in the Amish community is 1 in around 300. In the general population in the United States, it's 1 in 36 as of 2020. So you're 100% right. Maybe there is some tie between autism and vaccinations. Benny, can we squeeze in the Edge promo real quick? And then we'll come back, come back out. Just take a look at this one. We teach these idiots in DC to wash their brains, brainwash them themselves like this. The testosterone, aside from however the biochemical things that are going on in your body, it also tells your. Your brain. It. I guess it entices your brain into wanting to do more, wanting to lift more, wanting to walk further, run further, and becoming stronger. That's an interesting concept. That's not. Is it medical? Is it. Is it biochemical? Yeah, it's really not medical. In other words, there's no like, receptors in your brain that the testosterone effects that are like, called the whatever, the pleasure or enjoyment, you know, receptors. So when you exercise or whatever. So I think what that is, though, there are receptors that involve, you know, motivation. We pulled out of there a little bit quickly. The show is doing amazing. We're up about a week in a couple of days. Subscribers are coming. It's awesome. There's a ton of new short content on there. Check it out. YouTube.com ericboling the edge please sign up. Ben, do you, I have a quick question for you, Ben. Very quickly, what you got? Did you watch a football this weekend? I did not watch any football. I got smoked. I had a rough weekend. That's gambling. I just want to point this out. That's part of betting. You know, you have good weeks and you have bad weeks. I think it was a rough week. It's one better way. I'm watching a miniseries that's all, all about that. And it's, it's really disturbing to watch. But I will tell you, it started with Alabama, the Roll Tide guys who decided to show up for the first time this year against the Georgia Bulldogs. So, Benny, I, I don't want to tell you it was a rough week, but we're going to come back strong next time. We'll get them next time. Appreciate your time, folks. Hope you enjoyed it.
