So this idea that Trump's tone is why they really have trouble with Trump is a joke. And any Republican who gives any sway to this whatsoever, putting his finger on the scale for someone like a Shapiro, oh, he'd be a good presidential candidate. That's What Spencer Cox said today, I mean, this tells you everything you need to know about who the Republican is and how desperate they are not to debate the issues, period. End of story.

You know, then Laura Ingraham, one of state regime media's top propagandists goes on to say that the fake Republicans and Democrats drone on about Trump's tone. But Trump's tone is great. They say here, play this clip.

Co-host (3:04)

When the Democrats drone on and kind of faux Republicans like Cox when they drone on about tone and we gotta watch the tone, what it really means is that they can't really debate Trump on policy, not on trade policy, not on the forever wars, not on the border.

Host (3:20)

Then you have Jesse Waters, another propagandist on state regime media here he has this bloodlust and the way he's describing this, you think that he is going to be critical. The United States taking over Latin America to steal its minerals. That's what we should always be doing. State regime media, which calls itself Fox in this regard, it's very similar to Russian state regime media which views Russia as this imperial conquest machine to take over and seize Ukraine and these territories. That's exactly what Jesse Waters and the Propaganda Star, watch what they say here. Play this clip.

Co-host (3:59)

Trump just said expect land strikes in Latin America. Trump just said Maduro's days are numbered. And then he said Mexico and Colombia better watch out. We just had two US jets violate Venezuelan airspace and we're seizing oil tankers off their coast. This is much bigger than one strike against a vessel. This is a huge change in American foreign policy. We are the biggest superpower of the world and we can project enormous power all over the world, but we don't do it in our own hemisphere. And as of now, that has changed. This is now a goal to dominate Latin America.

Host (4:42)

They have mineral wealth going back to Ingraham. Her guest talks about how they're terrified that both the House and the Senate could potentially be flipped to blue. Here, play this clip.

Co-host (4:54)

And I think the larger fear should be for voters is that, you know, we have midterms next year. You know, you've got both chambers of Congress on the cusp. There it is. Both are perfectly gettable by Democrats in the election. And my fear is that if Democrats do take control of either chamber of Congress, this is what is everything that Trump is trying to do to bring up wages and, and bring peace to our country, bring peace to the world, bring prosperity to America. Every piece of his agenda will be ground down to a halt with efforts by Democrats and then middling Republicans like this who are, you know, all they are consumed with is their hatred of Donald Trump. And they're going to stop this agenda and it's going to be very, very bad for the American people.

Host (5:49)

Then you have Greg Gutfeld and Brian Kilmeade incredibly nervous about how the House is increasingly looking like it's going to be going to the Democrats in the midterms. Play this clip.

Co-host (6:03)

That is an interesting point.

Host (6:05)

Game it out.

Co-host (6:05)

What if they did win back the House? What's your point? What would you do? You know what they would do? Launch impeachment. It would be impeachment. I don't think, I don't think the House is lost. I think it's going to be how this year plays out. I think Trump's going to take it like he's president. There's going to be a convention this summer. He's going to go out and treat it the same exact way, try to gain momentum. And all you could be asked for is to be judged on your report card. The report card is going to be how the big beautiful bill performs. And if it bombs, Democrats will have a field day, 63 seats, shellacking everything. But if he begins to surge, that's what's going to, that's what's going to matter. And he'll dominate the news cycle.

Host (6:39)

Then you just have regime media lying to the people and doing it in kind of weird racist ways also. And just strange ways. Like Jesse Waters was like, because Trump is friends with the Muslims, our gas is below $2 a gallon. Our gas is not below $2 a gallon. And in general, prices are more expensive. Like, why don't you just, just stick to the objective facts? Like, we're not stupid. Like, we go out of our homes, we know what gas costs, we know what the groceries cost, we know what the products cost. We know that it's difficult to buy homes. And for many Americans, they can't buy any homes at all. People are living paycheck to paycheck. So just stop it. Just stop this crap. Here, play this clip.

Co-host (7:16)

And since Trump's such good friends with the Muslims, we're getting $2 gasoline.

Host (7:21)

Then you have Kevin McCarthy over on State regime media, the former spineless speaker who is replaced by an even more spineless speaker in Maga Mike again, just kind of racist stuff. It's like, you know, Jasmine Crockett. She makes Kamala Harris look bright. Look, you're telling on yourself here, Kevin McCarthy. You were so spineless, you were so intellectually deficient that you have to belittle others. Just go. Go away, man. Go away. Here, play this clip.

Co-host (7:54)

They still got another Democrat or two in, but oh my God, she makes Kamala look bright. She does. Kamala probably told her to run. Who knows?

Guest (8:04)

Look, last minute shopping during the holidays is the worst.

Host (8:07)

Then you have Trump's top economic advisor Kevin Hassett saying people are looking in those wallets and seeing how rich they are right now. Yeah, that's not happening. Maybe you are Kevin. And maybe Trump's oligarch friends are Kevin, but not the American people. Kevin has it here. Play this clip.

Co-host (10:04)

And so what's going to happen is that people are going to look at their wallets so they're going to understand how good Trump has been for the economy, as they did in 2019 as well.

Host (10:11)

Then they bring on Beavis and Butthead over here. They got Sean from the Real World Road Rule Challenge. Sean Duffy is currently our Transportation secretary. Not sure why. And then they bring in this other guy who is a nutrition and fitness specialist because they're pushing pull up bars and workout machines in airports and they want to do a billion dollars of our taxpayer money to build pull up bars and make people sweaty in airports. Here, play this clip.

Co-host (10:40)

Want to commend Secretary Duffy and Secretary Kennedy for this initiative. You think the goal here is not for people to get sweaty in airports. Nobody wants to be sitting next to somebody smelly on an airplane, but no sweating, Brian. But you know, even micro workouts are valuable for humans. Mini gyms. We just want to put in simple equipment that everyone can use that can encourage people in airports to get a little bit of movement, five minutes of movement here and there and to create an atmosphere that's really friendly toward people working out.

Host (11:07)

And then Duffy reinforces that this is their big priority here. Play this clip.

Co-host (11:11)

President Trump and I are working on that. By the way, just a quick note, Brian. We hired a Project manager in five. In five minutes. Donald Trump saved us $200 million on that contract. He's remarkable. But as people travel through our skies, we want to have the most enjoyable experience for them. And we know that we have families and nursing mothers. Somebody might want to come through and do a couple of pull ups. We're open to any ideas that airports have to make the experience better.

Host (11:37)

Look, just why don't you make travel more affordable? Why don't you make the food and airports more affordable? Why don't you make the overall experience more consumer friendly? Why don't we make sure to hold airlines accountable for screwing and defrauding consumers? The pull up bars is not on a list of things that we are.

Co-host (11:57)

Looking for right now.

Host (11:59)

But that just shows you how weird and twisted and sick this regime is speaking about. We are twisted and sick. They then bring in their secretary for the Housing and Urban Development, hud, the housing secretary. And rather than talk about actually increasing the supply of housing and how we're going to build more houses and make it more affordable, I mean, this guy's basically removed affordable housing from HUD's. Priorities. But look at what they do here. He just like reads a piece of propaganda. Like he says, I'm going to read a piece of paper which is pure propaganda and then just attacks immigrants. He goes, I'm not supposed to do this on tv. Watch this.

Co-host (12:40)

Also recently rolled back more Biden era guidance that you said was favoring Afghan refugees. Tell me about this. How are immigrants impacting the housing market from Afghanistan? Yes, ma'. Am. And you know, I'm glad you brought that up, Maria. I know I'm not supposed to do this on tv, but I want to read this so the American people, Democrat, Republican, liberal, conservative, understand what's going on. During the Biden administration, our HUD Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity Office, we have taken down guidance that during the Biden administration encouraged landlords and property owners to forego regularly required credit checks for refugees so they didn't have to do credit checks. It encouraged landlords and public housing authorities to exempt Afghan refugees from occupancy limits.

Host (13:27)

And this is what they've really been doing the whole time. But I want you to focus on the tactic here and I'm going to break down what you're seeing. But let's, let's play this last clip of the Secretary of HUD blaming immigrants. Here, play this clip.

Co-host (13:39)

When you have over 12 million people coming over our borders unchecked, unvetted, this is straining our housing market from a supply standpoint, from an affordability standpoint. HUD just put out a report and found that between 2021 and 2024, the foreign born population in our country in just three short years is 6 million people, which is the most in that period of time in American history. And so we cannot forego the thought that because of illegal immigration, because of people coming to our country, prices have risen, supply has been squeezed. But we're working very hard at HUD, along with the President and other leaders in the administration to bring down the cost and raise the supply when we're doing it through interagencies. But we need the Fed to cut rates. We need to continue to deport illegals that are taking houses from the American people. So we're very intentional and focused about it at HUD and across the administration.

Host (14:35)

So you see what like do you see how they use immigrants, migrants as a way to divide us? Right. The reality is, is that housing is not affordable for a variety of reasons, but the main one being supply. That's the real issue, that the supply of housing is limited and so it costs more supply and demand. Why Is the supply limited? Because private equity companies, hedge funds, billion dollar corporations, they are buying thousands and thousands of homes, oftentimes with all cash offers or just taking them off the market. And they're outbidding regular consumers, they're outbidding people who would be first time homeowners and outbidding people who need homes. And also there's a huge amount of foreign ownership of American homes. Well, but the main reason is private equity buying up these homes. And so that's Trump's billionaire friends. It's not the, it's not the migrants coming in. It's private equity is the main reason why, you know, is the main reason why. And then in terms of foreign ownership, it's not the migrants who are working the farms, who this is what they want to blame. Or in the factories or in the restaurants, they're not able to really afford the homes either. It's coming from the wealthy people from China or the wealthy people from Europe or the wealthy people who are scooping up homes in America as investment properties that they often don't even live in to bring their money here. And so we have to think about what the real issues are. But they want to blame it on migrants. You see what they're doing there? They blame transgender people, they blame migrants. They blame everybody other than, other than the fact that they're the ones who are do they're distracting you. Because it's the billionaires and the oligarchs who are screwing you. It's the Trumpers who are screwing you. The people who then beg for bailouts for themselves when they screw it all up. But when you say, hey, why are you stealing from me? Or could we be more equitable in this? Like, why are you paying less taxes than I am? Socialism, communism, Watch their tricks. These right wing oligarchs, they're con artists, they're scammers. A lot of them are criminals. They're bad humans. Trump. Bad human, bad person, evil criminal, felon, sexual abuser. Got to call them out and just say what they are. They're bad people who are predators who want to harm you. They're hateful people. Evil people. That's what we got to stop, hit, subscribe. Let's get to 6 million.
