I know he can help. I am here because of Trump. I'm here only because of him. Did you hear that from Yarden Bibas, who has a tragic story. Hamas killed his wife and his two children. And those sadistic maniacs were then telling him while he was held in captivity, not knowing when he was going to perhaps be executed, when he was going to be tortured and then executed. They were telling him, don't worry, you'll get a new wife, you'll get new kids, better ones. This is what they said to him in the interview transcript. But notice what he says here. This is the freed Israeli hostages, got Israeli hostage released by Hamas. And he's saying, I am only here because of him. I am here because of Trump. This is not, you know, some partisan. Oh, I vote. I vote Republican. And so I like everything Trump does. He is better at this than the clowns who were in charge before him. That is objective reality. The Democrats were weak and feckless. Look at Afghanistan and the pullout. And the Democrats were weak and feckless and incompetent. And now we have somebody who's trying to tackle hard problems and get things done again. There should be a bipartisan. I hope he gets this done. Instead, you have Democrats. Oh, he's going to World War Three. Oh, he's terrible. They will never, ever come along on this one. Look, after more than a year and a half of war, pain and worry in Israel, the need for security essentials for first responders remains critical. The country consistently prepares the IDF with the resources they rely on. But first responders and private citizens also need to be fully supported as well. That's where our partners at the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews have come through with your generosity. The IFCJ has supported and will continue to support the people of Israel with life saving security essentials. Your gift today will help save lives by providing bomb shelters, armored security vehicles, ambulances, firefighting equipment, flak jackets, bulletproof vests, and so much more. Your generous donation today will help ensure the people of Israel are safe and secure in the days to come as threats of terror remain imminent. Give a gift to bless Israel and her people by visiting supportifcj.org that's one word. Support ifcj.org or call 888-488ifcj 888488 ifcj. The astronauts are home from being a little more extended stay up at the space station, the International Space Station, than they had intended. And they're currently holding a live press conference at the Johnson Space center in Houston. We're monitoring that. I don't think there's all that much that is going to come out of that that is new. I'm sure they're happy to be home. And it is very nice that SpaceX let them hitch a ride, so to speak, brought them back here. And we're all very, very thankful that they managed to get back in one piece and that everything is good. And I still can't forget, will not forget that Elon said he could have gotten them back sooner, but that the Biden administration didn't want the ally of Trump, Elon Musk, to get a win in the public's eye. And that that's really, that's really a summation, I would argue, of everything you're seeing with the Democrats in the Left right now, which is they just, they don't want good things to happen if it means that the people doing them get credit. And they're not Democrats. They'd rather bad things happen, or at least they'd rather things that are good be delayed perhaps indefinitely instead of the other side getting a win. I think there's something so cynical and selfish about what the Democrat mindset is right now with all of this. So, you know, we've seen these, these astronauts, they're. They're trying to stay non political and I get that. So they're not going to say much other than we're glad to be home. And, you know, it's quite a, quite an honor to do all this stuff. I'm not, I'm not a space guy. I got to tell you. I'm not even really a boat guy. So I got to imagine I wouldn't really be a space guy. I'm okay with boats on freshwater. I'm okay with boats where I can see land. But the moment we get out there and it's. You're on the boat and you're stuck on the boat, there's waves and you don't know where land is. That's. The buckster does not like this. This is not for me. I feel bad. I'm here in Miami where there's a lot of yachting and boating and whatever, and I get invited sometimes to go out on people's boats and I just have to politely say, I'm not a boat guy. I'll come hang out of the boat when it's docked for a little bit. You know, I'll come and have a. I'll probably have a glass of sparkling water. I'm not that much fun at parties these days, but I'll come by and say hi, but I'm just not, not a big boat person. But I can imagine if you're not really into that zero gravity and being stuck up in space might be a little beyond my. A little beyond where I'd like to be, where I'd like to go with things. So I can't say that astro astronaut is something that I think as a kid you, you would think, oh, that would be really cool because someone's flying around. The whole zero gravity thing. You have to wear a cool suit. Astronauts are generally considered heroes and there's all the cool movies about them. And that's all true. But the more you think about it as an adult, I think you'd wonder yourself, well, I'd have to actually be up there I don't know if I'd like the food. I don't know if I'd like the accommodations. It's not really for, I'm just saying it's not really for me. So I, I tip my head. Neither is being on a nuclear submarine for that example. Right. There are some jobs that I'm just not cut out for and I don't think astronaut would be, would be one of them. So I am impressed by those who are willing to put themselves out there and do this. And then there's Greenland. What does that have to do with astronauts? Nothing. But I wanted to talk about this. J.D. vance was in Greenland. So this is continuing to be a conversation, a discussion. And this is, I think that they're going to try to pull this off. I don't think this is just all rhetoric. When Trump is talking about the third term and when Trump is talking about, you know, there's some times where he is playing the media, he's, he's weaving, you know, he's doing what he does. He's, he's pulling their chain a little bit. You know, there are things that he likes to do and they all freak out, as we know. And I sit here and I say to you, I don't think that's, I don't think that's going to happen. Right. So it's really just rhetoric meant to inflame his enemies and get a chuckle out of his supporters on a lot of things. I don't think that's the case with this Greenland conversation. I think that this is. You look at the history, as I've said, of the United states starting from 1776 all the way through. We have been acquiring land at different times, right. Sometimes through war and conquest, sometimes through a purchase. Louisiana Purchase, probably the greatest land deal for our side, probably the greatest land deal for the purchaser of all time. I don't think anything else could really come close. So, yeah, there's been some, some big moves that have been made and notice sometimes it's as simple as buying it from another country or coming up with some kind of a deal. Greenland has 40 some thousand people. Greenland is, is not even. I don't even think we could get like a meter rating on it for a radio market if it were, if it were a town or a city in America. Right. Greenland is not a big place population wise. Huge place, landmass wise. A lot of resources, a lot of strategic value for America on a whole range of things. So why not pursue this a little bit, you know, Isn't it kind of funny that people who are, who are saying this is insane, they defend the status quo as though the status quo makes sense. Greenland should be a part of Denmark. Why? Based on what? What is Denmark going to do with it? You know, Denmark. What have you done for me lately? That's what I would ask if I were Greenland. Here is J.D. vance speaking. This is cut 22 speaking to the leadership of. This is. This is real folks like, this is going. This isn't AI. This is going on here. He is speaking to the leadership of Greenland. Play at 22.
