C
Yeah, a lot better than the doom and gloom. Remember what they were telling us in April?
B
Oh, worst year since 1930. We're going to stop it. Well, stop it. When you go into midterms, you want to have strong stock markets. It's just, it's. You don't want to give Democrats more ammunition to fight against Republicans. So we want good, healthy stock markets going forward. Steve. Thank you, brother. All right, folks, it's four o'. Clock. You know that means markets are close. You got the ding, ding, ding. If you don't, I'll just do it anyway. All right, Jones looks like it's going to be up 80. I have 81 points higher. 82 points in the endowed. Jones 27 higher in the S P. Look at that. You guys are right on it. Today, 69. A little good news in the oil patch. Oil was down a bit today. Took about a dollar lower in the oil. And gold up 28 to the ounce. Silver didn't perform. It's weird. Silver down. Copper down. Platinum down. Palladium down. Gold resisted. The rest of the metal market up $20 to the outside is great news. That means Banks are starting to buy again. Last day of the quarter, folks. Last day of the third quarter, fourth quarter starts tomorrow. A lot of hedge funds, most of the hedge funds close their books. They pump up the prices at the end of the month on September 30th. So keep an eye. You may see a little backing off over the next couple of weeks, just a little bit. But that will be just more housekeeping than anything. Let fewer players involved. And as I told Steve, last five years, the last five years, all four of the Biden years, including one end of Trump's term in 2020 this month. September has been historically very weak, down 4% across the board this September with Trump in place, doing his thing with tariffs. Got me wrong. I got that one wrong fully this September, up 4% in the S P, 5% in the NASDAQ. Very, very strong markets going into the fourth quarter of the year. So let's hope it just continues. Already the Iranian regime faced the re implementation of sanctions that restarted on Saturday, September20 a couple days ago after 10 years of an Obama era waiver. This means a likely freeze of billions upon billions of dollars of Iranian assets and an expected windfall for American interests. Here to discuss is the deputy director of the U.S. national Council of Resistance of Iran, Alireza Jafar. Welcome Alireza. Back, sir, thank you for bringing coming back on. You had a big event. Tell us about your big event and tell us what you've done. You said something to me before we started that was very interesting about the mullahs. But I'll let you have the floor. Tell us about the event.
D
Well, certainly again, it was great to be with you, Eric. When the Iranian regime's president got to New York to speak at the UN thousands of Iranians came from over 40 states across the United States to rally in front of the United nations saying that the possession the regime's president does not represent the people of Iran, saying that Iran is not recognized by its ruthless leaders. Rather, Iran is recognized by its democratic alternative headed by a woman, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, who is heading the parliament in exile, the ncri that she has called for change in Iran by the people of Iran. She said that there is no need for boots on the ground or appropriation of money or arms. None of that. The people of Iran are capable to bring about change. All the rest of the world need to do, including those 192 world leaders who were in New York is that don't give money and arms and legitimacy to the Iranian regime. The rest of it, the People of Iran can do it.
B
Sir, why do we recognize the mullahs as the leaders of Iran? I mean, okay, internally Iranians can do what they want, especially if they fear for their lives if they don't recognize the mullahs or they do things. And we all know the stories of if you're a homosexual and you're in Iran, you might be thrown off the top of the, the roof of a building. So I understand the intimidation factor when you're in Iran, but why don't world leaders recognize the president of Iran instead of the mullahs and thereby kind of degrading the power of that mullah faction?
D
Well, you know, the, it's, it's not just an idealistic thing to talk about the people of Iran. Iran is a, you know, is a nation with a tremendous history and rich culture. We have the desire of seeing freedom and political pluralism. And the Iranian opposition is so strong. Mrs. Rajavi is heading the movement, the NCRI. This is the same movement that exposed all the major nuclear sites of Iran, including the uranium enrichment facility in 2002. That was exposed by this movement right here in Washington, which triggered the IAEA inspections of Iranian nuclear sites. And they also exposed the underground facility for dough under the mountains, which they had centrifuges deep down the mountains. But the world, instead of recognizing the movement, instead of paying attention to it, instead of acting on the very valuable information that this movement has revealed, not just on the nuclear side, but on their missile program, their terrorism instead they tried to reach out to the Iran regime, giving them concessions, giving them pallets of cash. It was both Europe and the United States that were heavily involved in that. What we're saying is that that era is over and must be over. They need to look at the people of Iran as the representatives of the nation. And the movement has a plan known as a 10 point platform for, for the future of Iran that says there has to be a separation between religion and state, gender equality, freedom of religion, freedom of political parties, free market economy, peace in the Middle east and a non nuclear republic, Iran.
B
And that platform and recognize Israel, obviously?
D
Yes, absolutely. When they talk about the peace in the Middle East. And remember, the single most destructive party that has always opposed peace in the Middle east has been the Iranian regime. Obviously our position is totally the opposite.
B
So I've interviewed Iranians before and I've interviewed cair, you know, the Council of American Islamic Relations. I've interviewed Iranian leaders before and you can get them to say, yes, we want to bring Iran into, into the 21st century. And we want, you know, more democracy within Iran. And then you ask them about Israel and everything shuts down. It almost, it seems like it's. They'll never get to that, to that point. Do we need them to get to that point or can we bring them along and eventually they're going to realize the fruits of democracy and freedom and free markets. Maybe they should start to recognize Iran or risk losing that Israel or risk losing that.
D
Well, you know, I tell you this. Any way you pin hopes on the mullahs ruling Iran, the regime ruling Iran, you're not ever going to get anywhere. Whether it's that issue or the nuclear issue or the missile program or the human rights, none of that. Because this regime in nature is anti human. And it's not just anti democratic, they're anti human. So they need to be removed. And there have been several rounds of major uprisings in Iran since 2018 in all 31 provinces of the country. People chanting death to the dictator, death to the oppressor, be it the Shah or the supreme leader. The same way that the people were fed up with the savak, the secret police of the Shah, the single party rule and the corruption of the Shah. They got rid of it the same way. They're even more vehemently opposed to the clerics saying, this is not the era for monarchic dictatorship or theocracy. This is the era for democracy. This is the era for political pluralism that's going to happen. And once that happens in Iran, you can see the impact of a free democratic republican.
B
I mean, you create an uprising or resistance and you're hanging from cranes that are building buildings in Iran. If I'm not mistaken. You can correct me if I'm wrong. However, talk to us a little bit about this new sanction package that is in play or will be in play.
D
It's already in play. You know, they were when we first exposed the nuclear sites starting in 2002, that led eventually to, you know, the whole nuclear program being exposed. The regime did not comply. The UN United Nations Security Council came up with several resolutions. There were six of them starting in 2006, imposing all kinds of very restrictive sanctions on their missile program, on the nuclear program, on their, you know, the movement of the regime's officials, freezing assets, calling for ending all enrichment related activities. There's a long list of those sanctions, but all of those sanctions were lifted or put on Freeze in 2015 as a result of the Iran nuclear deal. What happened just last week was that the three nations in Europe they triggered what they call snapback mechanism, which is part of the UN resolution to bring back all of the old sanctions that were put on hold, to bring them back by the end of the 28th, by the beginning of 28th of September. So since 28th of September, just two days ago, those sanctions are all back on Iran. And it's mandatory on all member states of the United Nations.
B
Is there a way, sir? Is there a way? And remember, we had sanctions and then Obama released all this money that was raised or was confiscated through the sanctions. He gave it back 100 something billion dollars on pallets and C130 transports over to Tehran. And then they were put back in place under Trump. And then Biden, you know, released tens of billions of dollars again. And now we know that that was used for, for terror in the aftermath of Biden's presidency. Anthony Blinken, Secretary of State at the time, admitted that they knew that now and they lied about it this whole time. My point is, if we gather all these billions of dollars, these likely petrodollars, I'm guessing this is sales of oil to different countries that were passing through US Banks or friendly banks. So if we confiscate this money, how do we ensure this time that a Democrat president down the road can't say, here, Iran, here's $200 billion of your money that we were, we were holding back because that really was, threw us back decades, if not longer in our fight against removing Iranian mullahs. Am I right?
D
Well, one thing is very different, Eric, is that, you know, the whole circumstances in Iran has changed. This is not 2015. This regime is in big TR right now. They're being rejected by their own population. They are in big trouble in the region. They have lost a lot of the clout that they had in the region. Their proxies, their biggest ally in the region, Assad, is gone. Their nuclear weapons program, which has cost Iran $2 trillion, that's a lot of money. That's bigger, that's a larger amount of money than all the old revenue that was generated in Iran under the mullahs. So all of that is now gone. So that's why this is not the regime that, you know, that is going to just continue the cycle. This is a regime that is.
B
Mr. Alireza, I have to hate to do this, sir. I hate to cut you off. We have the President of the United States speaking live and we will take him, sir. Thank you.
D
Thank you. Great, great to be on your show.
C
President Trump launched in 2019, and that.
A
Means building stronger data systems, using AI.
C
To decode complex biology. Designing better clinical trials that deliver faster, more effective treatment for kids.
A
The order doubles federal investment in the Child Cancer Data Initiative with an additional $50 million. Just this year, NIH will expand research while the private sector and universities will.
C
Bring their best tools to the table. Together, we will ensure that every innovation.
B
Every breakthrough goes to work for our children.
A
The order guarantees that AI will be integrated into HHS interoperability networks. We will make electronic health records and claims data work for patients and researchers. We're already doing that.
C
And always with parents in control of their child's health information.
A
No family should have to fight cancer.
C
Without dated tools or without access to.
A
The very best science, or too long families have fought childhood cancer while our systems lag behind. President Trump, thank you for your leadership in changing all that. This executive order is about action, unlocking cures, empowering families, and giving every child the chance to grow up healthy and strong.
C
With American innovation and leadership, we can.
B
Make our children healthy again.
A
Rami, do they know why there's quite an increase that's taken place over the last number of years? Do they know why that? Do they have any idea why that's. We are doing that research, and Jay Bhattacharya can talk about that. We're doing that research now for the.
B
First time, we're focusing on that.
A
In particular colon cancers and these cancers that have suddenly. That never affected children before, and suddenly our epidemic in our children. And we're going to find the causes.
B
Their environmental causes, we're going to identify.
C
Them and work to eliminate them.
A
Thanks, Bobby. Jay, go ahead, please. Hello.
C
Thank you, everyone. Thank you, President Trump, for signing this historic executive order directing your administration to use advanced artificial intelligence technologies to cure childhood cancer. By signing this executive order, the administration is the Advancing the NIH Childhood Cancer Data Initiatives Coordinated Pediatric Adolescent and Young Adult Rare Cancer, first launched under President Trump's direction in 2019. When I was a young medical student in the 1990s, I had the privilege of spending a month in a pediatric cancer ward treating children with cancer. And I have to say, it was the most difficult month of my life. I left for home every day in tears. Watching little children cope with a deadly disease is hard. They should be playing with their friends, going to school, living their best lives, but instead, they bravely face cancer. These are the bravest kids I've ever met. I have tremendous admiration for the scientists who devote their lives to finding cures for kids with cancer, for the doctors and nurses who take care of them and for their parents who suffer alongside them, care for them and love them. This year, nearly 9,500 children will be diagnosed with cancer in the US. In the mid-1970s, the five year survival for cancer was 58%. Today, the cancer survival rate for children with cancer is 85%. This is because of the tremendous investments we've made in treating childhood cancer, in researching it, and it's worth celebrating his achievement. But I say that 85% is still too low. We need to be at 100. We still have a long way to go. The treatments these little kids undergo involve therapies like healing, chemo or radiation that put them through hell. Even with 85% will be cured, the therapies themselves can cause health problems as kids age into adulthood. Nearly 60% of cancer survivors experience severe life threatening complications in adulthood because of these treatments. And so we need better treatments so that we can raise the survival rate and reduce the side effects. This initiative builds on the data. The CCDI's mission to gather data from every child, adolescent and young adult diagnosed with cancer, no matter where they receive. It aims to develop a platform of tools to bring together clinical care research tools like molecular characterization and genetic information tools that will improve preventive measures, treatment, quality of life, survival for childhood cancer. By uniting families, clinicians and researchers. By harnessing the power of aai, CCDI will accelerate diagnosis, inform treatment and develop the next generation of life saving therapies. This is not about collecting data alone. It's about giving families hope. Today, we commit to taking this work to the next level. With this executive order that President Trump is signing, we're building a future where every child's data contributes to faster diagnosis. Artificial intelligence help us uncover faster, more precise treatments, improve quality of life and better survival. And finally, let me extend my sincere congratulations and gratitude to President Trump for his leadership and vision in giving us this opportunity to make America healthy again. To rigorously push the boundary science and bring hope to millions of families.
A
Thank you very much, Jay. That's very nice. Appreciate it. Director Kratzias, please. Thank you, Mr. President. And thank you, Secretary Kennedy, for your leadership on this issue.
C
I am thrilled that our MAHA strategy.
A
Prioritizes utilizing AI in the fight against.
C
Cancer and that this executive order is.
A
Putting a priority to this action.
C
Thank you for your commitment, Mr. President, to the United States for.
A
For maintaining its global leadership in artificial.
C
Intelligence across models, data sets, applications, and.
A
To issue an AI action plan to do just that.
C
Your foresight in the first term leading you to establish the CCDI to gather, harness and share data on childhood cancers.
A
Has positioned us today to leverage AI.
C
In a way we could never imagine before.
A
With America's pioneering models, American researchers now.
C
Have the best tools in the world.
A
To turn the CCDI data into the.
C
Building blocks of life changing breakthroughs. So I and my team at OSTP are thrilled to partner with our teams at hhs, at NIH and with David to empower the development of gold standard applications for the pediatric cancer research and.
A
To play our very small part in.
C
Trying to protect the health and happiness of America's children. Thank you, Mr. President.
A
David, please.
C
Thank you, sir. Well, first of all, I just want to thank Stephanie McMahon and all of us for helping us all together here. You know, for years they played villains on tv, but they're actually very nice people in real life. But it's because of your passion that we're all here today. So thank you for that and thank you Mr. President, for your leadership on this. First of all, you did have the foresight to create this childhood cancer database way back in 2019. And that's what's going to power the AI. It's going to give us the data to find all the patterns in. The other thing you've done is you've made it your policy of this administration to support innovation, support infrastructure, to support energy. And because of that, we have an AI boom going on right now. 3.8% growth rate in the last quarter in GDP. And a big part of that is because the boom that you've unleashed. So thank you sir for doing that. And I think that we can see today that this boom is not just going to be about dollars and cents, but about saving lives as well. We're going to get some miraculous cures out of the this. So thank you to everyone who's here today.
A
Good job. We just had a meeting and Oz was at the meeting and really was a dominant factor along with Bobby. And maybe you could just say a couple of words about our past meeting where we're going to be lowering drug prices by 50, 100, 200, even 500%. Even a thousand. We have a thousand percent also. We have one coming up next week, a big one, a thousand percent reduction in price. Do you want to give just a couple of words on that?
C
It's a historic day. For the first time we've had the magnitude of give from the pharmaceutical industry. One of their leading likes, Alfred Bulla and his company Pfizer, agreed. Something the President has been pushing on since his first term and he's been Calling me quite frequently on speed dial over this term to make sure that Secretary Kennedy and I would seriously engage industry. They have agreed to several important concessions. First, we will have most favored nation drug pricing in this country for everyone on Medicaid. So our most vulnerable populations will not be forced to pay three times or more, five, six, seven times more for the exact same pills in the same bottles as it costs in other countries. That will make it a lot easier for governors to manage their budgets and shows again a distinct passion that the President helps has for helping people who are most vulnerable. We've also gotten all new drugs to be released in this country to be priced at most favored nation, which means by the end of the president's term, 95% of all pharmaceutical drugs in America will be at most favored nation pricing. Again, no more discrepancies between what folks in other countries can buy their drugs for and what's being purchased in this country. Pfizer also agreed, as will companies next week when they come to visit this same White House to onshore drugs to bring their production back into America. So American workers will benefit as well. But at the same time, this is critical. It allowed Pfizer and we believe other pharmaceutical companies to maintain their innovative edge. We want America to continue to find cures like the ones that saved the lives of some of the children that I'm looking at right now. Those beautiful faces and smiles are here because American innovation was not dulled, not blunted. But we can solve that need and thread the needle by also making health care affordable. So Americans no longer, including children like this, be forced to make a difficult choice between groceries and pharmaceuticals. And I must say, Mr. President, since this morning, if you just look at the stock market, there's been support of this decision made by the CEO of Pfizer. Their stock has benefited. So I think it's the right thing for the company, the right thing for the, for the policies of this administration, which is a pretty cool place to work. But most importantly, it's the right thing for the American people.
A
Thank you very much. And maybe we'll just finish it off with Linda because she's been such an incredible cabinet member and done such a good job. Maybe you want to say something about your unbelievable daughter and son in law because they've worked very hard on this. Well, thank you Mr. President for the opportunity to do that. I don't think that, you know, any mother could be any more proud of all of the efforts that Stephanie's made in support also of Paul. Stephanie first Talked about this 10 or 11 years ago after little Connor. And I remember one of the things that she said to me was, I really would like to somehow convene the people and the scientists who think outside of the box, because research is, is done in very standard terms. You do this, you do this, and, yes, you have to do that. But she said, I really would like to tap into some of the most creative and inventive minds in the country to be able to look at research differently for pediatric cancer. And she did that. It took her about 10 years, and she kept tapping in and calling people, being pretty relentless about it, driven herself by a mother's heart. And I couldn't be any more proud of the work she's done. I'm happy to stand by and be a supportive mom and be very proud of her today. Thanks. Good job you're doing. Thank you very much, Linda. Okay, any questions, please? Mr. President, as we inch closer to a government shutdown this morning, you said you might do a lot of layoffs. If DOGE is already reducing the federal workforce, why is it necessary to link more federal jobs cut to a shutdown? Well, the Democrats want to shut it down. So when you shut it down, you have to do layoffs. So we'd be laying off a lot of people that are going to be very affected. And they're Democrats. They're going to be Democrats. As you know, we this country, no country can afford to pay for illegal immigration, health care for everybody that comes into the country. And that's what they're insisting. And obviously, I have an obligation to not accept that that would affect everybody. You know, when I see what we're doing with AI and all the plants that are opening up in the country, $17 trillion is coming. And if you compare that to Biden, Biden had in four years, less than a trillion. We have 17 trillion more than that. I think it's going to be much more than that, David. By the end of this year, I think it's going to be far over that. It's a record. It's already a record in eight months. It's a record by a lot. And so we're doing well as a country. So the last thing we want to do is shut it down. But a lot of good can come down from shutdowns. We can get rid of a lot of things that we didn't want, and they'd be Democrat things, but they want open borders. They want men playing in women's sports. They want transgender for everybody. They never stop. They don't Learn. We won an election in a landslide. They just don't learn. So we have no choice. I have to do that for the. For the country. Yes. You mentioned a deal with Herbert. Mr. President, what is that deal? Will they be paying the administration? Well, we're in the process of getting very close, and Linda's finishing up the final details. And they'd be paying about $500 million. And they'll be operating trade schools. They're going to be teaching people how to do AI and lots of other things. Engines, lots of things. You know, we need people in trade schools. I remember when I went to school, I had some people that were particularly good students, but they could take a motor or an engine apart blindfolded or put it back blindfolded. But they weren't too good at other things, and many of them ended up doing better than the people that were. So trade schools are very important, and we've lost trade schools. We used to have a lot of trade schools in this country. We don't have them anymore. We have tremendous plants opening, and we want to have people at top level for those plants, whether it's AI or whether it's automotive plants. You know, we have many automobile companies open their plants in the United States. They're all coming back for two reasons, tariffs. And I think they like November 5th, you know, they liked the person that was chosen. And they're moving in from Canada, they're moving in from Mexico, they're coming in from all over the world. China is coming. They're all coming. And that way they avoid paying tariffs. So, you know, they're coming for that reason. So by opening up trade school, because we're going to need employees, we're going to need people with skills. And I think I can say, Linda, you feel the same way by opening up trade schools. This would be a giant trade school series of trade schools. It would be run by Harvard. Now, this is something that we're close to finalizing. We haven't done it yet, but they put up $500 million interest and everything else would go to that account, meaning go to the trade school. And, you know, it's a big investment in trade school done by very smart people, and then their sins are forgiven. So we have a good chance of getting that closed. Yeah. Please.
B
Mr. President Trump, thank you. I've been looking at this chart that.
C
You showed us earlier.
B
So it's left over the office earlier. US prices for brand drugs are 422% higher in comparable countries. You know, I'm young, maybe I'M inexperienced, but I think a lot of Americans are wondering, how did we even get here? Being one of the biggest cars you.
A
Got here by incompetent people sitting behind this desk. You had a lot of incompetent people. I did it. As you know, I did. I started it in my first term. We rebuilt the military. We got the largest tax cuts in history. We did all these things, and we had the best economy in the history of our country during my first term. And by the way, this is blowing it away based on what we're seeing, but we got it by having people allow that to happen. As you know, I started the process, but then when Covid came, we focused on Covid, not on this. And I said, if I ever go back, if I ever go back and do it again, I'm going to make this a primary thing. Because other countries are paying a fraction of what we pay for the same exact drug, same exact pharmaceutical everything. And I said, no, it's not right. And the drug companies actually came along. You know, don't Forget, they make 30, 40, 50 million a year. These people, they're very smart. And they had a lot of people convinced that, you know, that's the way it has to be. They talked about research and development. We had to pay. I said, well, why isn't Germany paying? Why aren't other countries paying? And they always had a good answer. But it got to a point where I didn't like the answer anymore. And I said, we have to do this. And we did. And the team that we have with Oz and Bobby and Chris and all of the people that we had working on it, and I must tell you, Marty's been a big. Wherever you, Marty. But Marty's been a big. A big factor. We have a great team. There's never been a medical team like this. And I said, let's go do it. And then I just. I did. As I said, I would bug them every single day, every week because they said we have to have. I mean, why should we be paying 10 times what another country is paying? And that was just an excuse, you know, Research and development. We do research and development. So now we're going to be paying whatever the lowest price is, we're going to be paying that price. It's a great thing. But there won't be anything that can have the impact on Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, anything where you need pharmaceuticals, medicines. The numbers are going to come way down. Even Obamacare, which is terrible. It's not been good, as you know, it's a weak form of healthcare, but it'll be better because the medicine's going to come in at a very low price. Yes, please.
C
Yes, Mr. President. It seems like every time you assemble your MAHA team and your cabinet members behind here in regards to health issues, it just keeps getting powerful. And look at these young kids there and the weight that is on the world right now that you can lift by what you're doing. I've often said Trump could cure cancer and people would still criticize him.
A
That's true, and it's true.
C
What is your message to America? That this potentially could bring us all together, get us on the same page and have unity. And I'd like to see if some of the kids or the parents have what it means to you to see President Trump get involved.
A
Well, we've made tremendous strides in cancer research, far more than anyone has done. And we have the greatest minds, the greatest people working on it. And childhood, you know, they call it childhood cancer. It's a very specific thing. And we've really made a lot of. A lot of progress. I think something that's going to allow us to make a lot of progress is the money we're saving on pharmaceuticals. We'll be saving 500, 600, 1000%. Nobody has ever heard of that. I told the story. You were here before that. When I was in the previous administration, my first term, I was so proud of myself because I'm the first president in 28 years. They cut drug prices from beginning to end. So they went down. I think it was 1/8 of a percent or 1/4 of 1%. And I was so proud of that, as I thought that was great. Now I'm cutting them 500%. And I will say this, politically speaking, the people understand. Otherwise I wouldn't have won in a landslide. You know, I get 97% bad press, and I won in a landslide. Which tells you the press has no credibility. But I will say that what we've done has been a great tribute to the people that are standing behind me in different forms. Linda in education, different. But what she's doing in education, she's sending education back to the states. That's a big move. The states, like, you know, you go back to Indiana, Iowa, you know, I would say 40 states will be great, 45 will be, you know, the 5% of them will be pretty good. But. And then you're going to have a Gavin Newscomb and some other people that aren't going to do a good job. But, you know, we'll Help them out. I want to help them out. And we're going to have safe cities again. We're going to be very safe. We're going to be going to Chicago pretty soon, because a friend of mine, a guy, a great guy, the head of the Union Pacific, he said, sir, you have to save Chicago. It's going bad. It's going bad fast. And it's a great city. He's right. It's a great city. I know it very well. And we have to save Chicago. So we're going to Memphis, Tennessee, right now. We've had a home run in D.C. you can walk out, Brian, you got mugged here a long time ago. Yes, sir. And mugger must have felt some pain because you're a tough cookie. Well, he had a gun, and I wish I would have. I know. Well, then if he had a gun, all you could do is say, thank you very much. Yeah. No, but it's everybody here. I mean, you were here in the room when I said to the reporters, who got mugged in the last year? And, like, half of the people raised their hand. Now, if you said, who got mugged over the last 60 days? Nobody. Nobody. No killing, no nothing. And the restaurants are booming. The town is booming. It's clean. You know, the National Guard actually went out and started cleaning all the crap out of the parks. The tents are knocked down. We had one that. You said it was a blue tent, and you said it was a Communist tent. Right. See, we're going to have a Communist mayor of New York. So, you know, let's see how that works out.
C
And I've gotten a lot of feedback on that. Everyone's very appreciative.
A
Yeah, you told me about a blue tent. And I said, it's not. I can't be there because we knocked him down. But this was a very highly sophisticated group of people that had permits and all the other things. Well, their permit expired. We knocked it down. It took what, 24 hours? Less, maybe. So I appreciate you telling me that. No, we have. We have a great thing going. The country is doing incredible. We are a hot country. The hottest. We're the hottest country in the world right now.
C
Do the parents or the kids have.
B
Anything they like to say?
A
Yeah, that's a great question. Would you like to say something? I would. That's a good comment right there. It's the best comment you've made in a long time.
C
Mr. President, good evening.
B
I'm Josh Armstrong. My name is Josh Armstrong. I'm from West Virginia, and I'm the father of this amazingly brave and resilient.
A
Little six year old, Laurel. Laurel was diagnosed with leukemia when she.
C
Was two years old, just before her third birthday. And we went on to watch as.
A
She spent months in the hospital fighting.
C
For her life, as she received blood.
A
Transfusions and platelet transfusions, as she fought.
B
Off one potentially fatal infection after another.
A
We watched as her body swelled and became painful from steroids, and then as.
C
It became frail and weak from chemotherapy.
B
And we watched and we wondered why there aren't better treatments available. And we wondered what might happen if she doesn't get the drugs she needs. And we wondered why isn't anybody doing more? And on behalf of myself and all.
A
The parents that have watched and wondered.
C
We'D like to say that what you're doing today gives parents like me and.
B
Children like Laurel the one thing that.
A
We most desperately need. And that's hope.
C
I'm happy to say Laurel's in remission today.
A
That's great. She looks so beautiful. Thank you. She is beautiful. Feeling good. Laura, that's for you. She looks so great. Because of this bill, doctors are going to be able to get better treatments.
C
Faster to patients like Laurel.
A
Big difference.
C
Because of you making children like her, real children. Not cases or statistics, but children like.
A
Laurel and all of these children here today. We have that hope. And we are so proud that you're standing with children with cancer and making.
B
It a national priority.
A
That's very nice.
B
Thank you, Mr. President.
A
We're with you all the way. How about you back there, dad?
B
Actually, I'd like my daughter to speak.
A
Oh, I like that much better than. That's very good. I'd like you to speak. Thank you. Good afternoon. My name is Carolyn Hendricks.
B
When I was four years old, I was diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma, a pediatric bone cancer. Eleven years later, I'm now 16 years.
A
Old and I'm doing great. What you're doing today, Mr. President, means.
B
That kids like me will get better.
A
Options and so much more hope for the future. This will help doctors use technology to find cures faster, match patients to trials more quickly, and give our families more.
B
Control over our health.
A
For kids, every day counts. This order shows that our lives matter enough to be free.
B
First in line for innovation on behalf.
A
Of children and young adults with cancer.
B
Those still fighting and those in remission.
A
Like me, and families who wish that they had more time together, thank you for making us a national priority. Mr. President.
B
Because of actions like this, kids like.
A
Me have the chance to grow up, to chase our Dreams and to live full lives. And that is the greatest gift anyone could ever get. Well, that was so beautiful. Your father could not have done that. You did us a big service, Father.
C
Yes, sir.
A
That's great. Where did you learn how to speak like that?
B
I've done lots of speeches for childhood cancer over the last few years, and I'm also in a theater program, so that's great.
A
Well, good. That's a great job. Would anybody like to say something? Would anybody. Would you like to say something, honey? Yes. I'm Ailani Myers, and I'm nine years old. And I was. I had a bladder cancer called leukemia when I was only two years old. I had. I had to get treated at seven different hospitals across this country. And I had to have two bone marrow transplants from one for my dad and one for my mom. And I had to spend many days in the night to in the hospital getting pokies and yucky medicine. And me and my parents are very worried, and I had to go through those seven different hospitals to find the best treatment that can make me better. And thank you, Mr. President, for making everything happen today. So kids like me and Laura, we can still be living today. And speaking. They're doing better than any of us have done. Lousy. We're not doing so well today. They're doing so good. That was fantastic. Thank you. And you're feeling good now? Yes. Are you all better? You're pretty. Pretty close, right? Yeah. Yeah. I hear you're going to do good. Anybody like to say something? Yes, sir. Go ahead. I've been. I've.
C
I've had a brain tumor since I.
A
Was four months now. I'm off brain. I'm alcohol medicine, so I'm a cancer survivor. I've had a brain tumor since I was four months and I'm doing great. I'm 15 now. I've gone to 10. And you're going to be a football player. Offensive lineman. You look fantastic. How about somebody else? I love hearing this. I love hearing you talk because you talk better than any of us. Right, Jim?
C
Thank you, Mr. President.
A
Well, I want to thank you all for being here. Amazing. We wouldn't miss. Thank you. But, you know, we're going to. We're doing a lot for you, and we're going to. You're all going to be better very soon. I don't think you're going to need any of the help that we're giving. It's going to be for the future. But I want to thank you for being with us and I'm going to bring them back to a room. We have a room where we have lots of hats and things in the back. And we're going to. Would you like to go back and we'll pick some nice presents? Yes. We'll get rid of the wonderful, the wonderful people of the media. Do you like the media? They're nice, right? They have good days, right? They do, actually. They do. Thank you very much. That's beautiful. That's really good. And thank you. We're not going to top that, so I want to just thank you all very much. Thank you.
B
Color bars, the color bars you got through the color bar. They're very, very moving. Inspirational moment in the Oval Office where the president with Bobby Kennedy just talked about the state of childhood cancers in America. Man, it is really, really devastating. And those beautiful young kids who are surviving. They're surviving, folks. That was a really touching moment. Okay, what are we doing? Mad Dog, get on the horn and talk to me in my ear, please. What's going on back there? See, folks, we're talking here a little bit. All the smart people are in the control room figuring out what we're doing next. Are we doing a monologue? All right.
D
Yes, sir.
B
All right, let's do it. Well, they called us conspiracy theorists. When we warned them that digital IDs were just around the corner. We said it was happening and they didn't believe us. And yet here we are today.
C
I am announcing this government will make a new free of charge digital ID mandatory for the right to to work by the end of this parliament. We spell that out, you will not be able to work in the United Kingdom if you do not have digital id. It's as simple as that.
B
Does that scare the living daylights out of you? If it doesn't, it should. Cashless society, smart cities, central digital currency, Digital id. He said, you're not going to be allowed to work unless you have a government issued digital id. They'll know exactly everything you do, where you go, how you spend your money. When you hear any of these things, you should run. There's some of the key components of the globalist mantra. All of it in an effort to control you and me. The core of the globalist agenda. Once digital IDs other forced on citizens right across the pond in the uk it will spread to Canada, eventually the whole world. That's how it works. And right now, President Trump is the only thing that stands between us and the globalist threat agenda. Take a look at this. In China, you line up like Cattle needing to prove you've done your COVID test or else you can't go anywhere. Not to the store, not to public transportation, nowhere. That's some dystopian stuff, Orwellian stuff, folks. And that's the level of control over the population we are talking about with these digital IDs. I can't stress this enough. This is the worst idea ever to hit a free country in the entirety of our existence. Next to the irs, I would say the IRS is number one. This is going to be number two. And guess what? The IRS will get their hands on your digital ID footprint. Believe me. The globalists at the World Economic Forum, the wef, have been dreaming about the digital ID for years now. Here's Queen Maxima of the Netherlands at the summit just last year.
A
It is very necessary for financial services, but not only it's also good for school enrollment, it's also good for health. Who actually got a vaccination or not. It's very good to actually to get your subsidies.
B
Look at how they spin it, like it's convenient, like it's good for us. Digital ID was the first step China took and it's the foundation of their social credit system. Now it's a surveillance system. It's a surveillance state where one mistake can cost you your job, your bank account, your family, maybe even your freedom. Think it can't happen here? Think twice. Think again. It's such a threat that on Inauguration Day back in January, RFK Jr. Warned us about it.
A
It's been the ambition of every totalitarian state from the beginning of mankind to control every aspect of behavior, of conduct, of thought, and to obliterate dissent. None of them have been able to do it. They didn't have the technological capacity. Today, the mechanisms are being put in place that will make it so none.
C
Of us can run and none of.
A
Us can hide digital currency. That will allow them to punish us from a distance and cut off our food supply. Every right that you have is transformed into a privilege contingent upon your obedience to arbitrary government dictates.
B
Well, they know what they're doing, you see. They know exactly what they're doing. They'll make you think that digital IDs are all about keeping track of illegal immigrants. No way. It's not. I know you're worried about the level of illegal migration into this country. Digital ID is another measure to make it tougher to work illegally here, making our borders more secure. Please, President Trump, reduce illegal crossings into America by over 95% without digital ID. But you see, they Know that more and more people care about their country's sovereignty and so they're seizing on the migrant crisis to make you want digital IDs to go into effect. Don't buy it. The left's mantra kicking in yet again, never let a crisis go to waste. And I know someone who loves to not only capitalize on a crisis, but help create them too.
C
Well, once you have the digital money system, then there's all sorts of services and applications that can be built on top of that. Whether it's helping with health or education or agriculture, most of the time you're online, you're going to want to be.
B
In an environment where the people are.
C
Truly identified, that is they're connected to a real world identity that you trust instead of just people saying whatever they want.
A
You know, I don't think in the.
B
Future you'll want to get mail that comes from an anonymous source.
C
Because whatever you see there might be designed just to mislead you.
B
Yes, all bs. Because once they get what they want, they've got you. I get it. Right. You do this to protect us. Except not really. See, Bill Gates wants us to believe that digital IDs will fight misinformation. It's about our safety. But the real goal is to end online anonymity and create permission based Internet and everything else. Well, they were already already found out. You see, Joe Biden and his gang of commies all worked with the big tech giants to silence us to this de platform. Some of us, even the president. But the cat's out of the bag now. And so now they found a new way. Bill Gates and his fellow globalists want to control our words and silence us for good. Systems, behaviors, control all of it. Make them comply. Make us comply. Makes each and every one of us trackable, identified for saying anything they don't like. For buying anything they don't want us to for flying too often. Digital carbon footprint, right? Remember, it's not about the truth, it's about control. It's always about control. For them, this means you're just a number, an identifier. Your ability to do anything can be turned off or on by any government at any time. Whether that's opening a bank account or taking a flight or I don't know, buying something on. On Amazon, browsing the Internet. Your ID will be there for someone. This isn't about migration or immigration. It's about building a control infrastructure. A digital ID won't stop those migrant boats. It won't stop gangs from coming over the border. But it will end our freedom. Same people who say digital ID is good. They'll help us track down illegal migrants. Sure are. The same people who just two weeks to platinum. Two weeks to flatten the curve people remember those for Covid. And then things would go back to normal. Two weeks. How about five years? They're just lies to control us. This gives the powers that be a full 360 degree view of what you and I do. Everything we do digital ID right now, the powers that be, our president and his administration. But what if the wrong administration seizes control of power? You think Joe Biden or Barack Obama wouldn't have looked into all of our lives, what we're doing, what we're spending. They were already working with the FBI in the deep state they already were. What now? They would have even more information. Our entire lives can be dehumanized at any point. This is even beyond de platforming which they've already experienced. There'll be no cash refuge. You don't have a big load of cash. I will tell you, if you get a digital ID mandated, I would buy the crap out of gold. Just buy the hell out of gold right now. And crypto. We'll lose our banking, our ability for housing, our services. Absolutely everything will be dependent on the government. This isn't science fiction. It isn't even fiction. This is a reality of what will happen here. It's already happening in the uk. It's a dangerous road we've already seen examples of. And if the wrong actors get control of our digital IDs, it's the end of the country as we know it. And to think we were called conspiracy theorists. Turns out we were just a little ahead of the curve. Turns out also it's a lot closer than we think. Don't let them do it. New administration. Washington D.C. has brought a lot of positive changes when it comes to fixing our broken health care system. The reality is however, that there is only so much the government can do. And that if we really want to make America healthy again, that starts at home with each, every one of us. And that's where the Wellness Company comes in.

I started with nothing but my body and my mind and I fought my way to the top of four arenas built to Break, men. First, pro baseball, where every pitch can end up your dream. Then Wall street, where I became one of the highest earning traders in America. Then came television, prime time, lights, millions watching. Every night a test. And I put it in writing. Wake up America. Followed by the swamp calling out corruption by name. But the edge isn't politics. It's not about fame. It's about fire. It's about proving yourself when everything is on the line. Only the strong survive it. Only the ready rise through it. This is the edge. Hi folks. Let's go to our own Rav, chief White House correspondent, who's been very, very busy today. First he was in a press conference with the President and the CEO of Pfizer. And then he was in the Oval Office as the President signed executive orders. Always happy to have Brian Glenn on. Brian, let's start with the, the Pfizer pledging what they say, $70 billion for research. I think you got a question? Do we have Brian's question here? I think you did get a question right off the bat if I'm not mistaken. We have that or no. Okay, we don't have that. But tell us your first question that Trump called on. Fantastic. Congratulations, my friend.
C
Well, thank you. I was. Big day for really anybody that has a need to for a pharmaceutical drug as Pfizer has committed to the US to basically offer the lowest unit rate on, across the board. And President Trump is even going to announce next week some additional really heavily used prescriptions that he wants to have 100% discount on those. So just a big day as far as making sure that prescription drugs affordable.
B
Do you know how this works? So if 100% discount means it's going to be a loss leader for big Pharma, not that they're, no one's crying the blues for them, but they're going to agree to break even, break even or lose money on some lower scale drugs and then charge whatever they want on others.
C
I'm assuming they didn't get into the nuts and bolts of how it works. But the bottom line that President Trump wanted to get across today is that he is lowering the cost for prescription drugs. There's going to be a website, I believe you. It's Trump rx, not released yet. But once that website is released, that will be kind of a gateway to go on and get a lot of these prescription drugs. But my question to him was and this is great that we're lowering prescription drug costs, but can we take the same approach to health insurance? Can we lower that as well? Because Premiums, as you probably know. And I've got lots of family and friends that are really, really struggling to pay their health insurance premium. So hopefully we could take a step in that direction as well. But just a big day involved in healthing. And of course, the, what we just got out of a few minutes ago is this commitment to using AI to fight childhood cancer. And Eric, let me tell you, And I said, Mr. President, every time we come in this Oval Office with your maha team, it seems to get a little better. I got about five text messages during this broadcast from parents who had kids that were either survived cancer or they're currently treating their kids for cancer. And this is a game changer. And, and I often said, and Eric, you've probably heard people say this President Trump could cure cancer and people would still criticize him for that. So hopefully now is a time in this country that we can come together and say, you know, we can celebrate the things that are happening. Because you saw and you heard from parents and those kids in the Oval Office, Eric, tell their story about fighting cancer. And let me tell you. So I had to hold my tears back several times in the Oval Office today, but President Trump coming together to.
B
Fight childhood cancer, no doubt, no doubt. Very, very emotional. Couple of, couple of minutes there. You know, I, for a long time, since I was at Fox 15 years ago, I was pushing to have every hospital, every pharma company, every hospital post the price of their drugs, right? So you, so American people can see how much it costs, what the pharmas are charging and what the hospitals are charging and therefore what your insurance companies are paying and just show and embarrass the hell out of them to bring their prices down. I hope they, they jump onto that big machine hot day today. There's more coming though, right?
C
Well, as far as what we understand, next week there, he's going to announce some more developments as well in terms of prescription drugs. So, yes, on that front. But you know, this has been a very active department and rightfully so. I mean, when RFK Jr got into the mix here, a lot of people very critical of him and in his ability to do it. But President Trump has often said he was the perfect person for this. And they really are pushing the envelope and trying to make this country healthier. Everything from removing red dye to curing childhood cancer. Think about that for a second. And often I was waiting to go on with you. I was reflecting about these text messages that I was getting, Eric, and I got tell you, I just, I thank God that This is in place with all the parents out there that have hope of one day curing their child's cancer and making this country cancer free.
B
We may lose some of your audio there very quickly. Only about a minute or so. I'm on board of saying. I say that we have the House, we have the Senate, and we have the White House. Let the government shut down, point the finger at the Democrats. What's the feeling there?
C
Oh, yeah, it's the same. I mean, President Trump has said if this government shuts down and we're hours away from it happening, it's solely on the responsibility of the Democrats. Keep in mind, they voted for the CR13 14 time. This is the Pelosi Schumer budget. Basically, what the Democrats want is $1.5 trillion of aid that goes to illegal immigrants to get health care. That's the mountain. That's the hill they're standing on right now. And of course, Republicans aren't going to budge from that. So I think we're looking at a government shutdown. We did it back 2017 to 2018 for 34 days. We all survived that. By the way, people still get their back pay. No one's going to go losing paychecks here. But we look like we are getting a government shutdown. And President Trump said it today, he doesn't want a government shutdown. But if we do, it's solely on the Democrats. And Democrats are going to say, Eric, that we have the presidency, the House and the Senate, that we're the ones shutting the government down. But we have that filibuster thing.
B
We've got to get a long time, a few more Democrat votes, a long time. A lot of fingers pointing, always. And at the end of the day, government gets bigger. I say shut it down and get a balanced budget. God, would that be amazing. Brian, Glenn, always good to have you, my friend. Thank you for your time, brother. All right, folks, that's it for us. We're going to hand it over to Steve Bannon. Stop settling for weak sound.

This episode weaves together market optimism, urgent foreign policy concerns (Iran), historically significant White House action on health/childhood cancer, and warnings about digital IDs. Emotional testimonies from cancer survivors and their families provided a striking human counterpoint to political and policy discussions. Commentary remains sharply aligned with Real America’s Voice’s themes: skepticism of centralized power, transparency, and a celebratory framing of “America First” reforms. The show concludes with a blend of hope—in advancements in health and policy—and warnings about threats to freedom, urging vigilance against new forms of control and celebrating American innovation and resilience.
