I don't like being mad, Mike. I wanna, I wanna be happy, Mike. I wanna be the happy warrior. But I am so upset about this. God bless America.

A (6:24)

And then Magamike Johnson says many of you ask, how does it end? How? How? What's my plan to end this shutdown? He goes, I don't have one. I don't know how it ends. Then he blames Democrats. Let me explain to you how it ends, Maga Mike. Just extend the Affordable Care act subsidies and protect the health care of millions of Americans because Americans deserve to have health care. Just do that and then the government opens because you're going to be killing your constituents. Here, play this clip.

B (8:20)

And so many of you have asked all of us, how will it end? We have no idea. It's up to the Democrats and they have to decide it. And judging by their outrageous behavior, the Democrats appear perfectly happy to keep the political theater going while real people suffer.

A (8:36)

Then they've had this MAGA Republican Congress lady Lisa McClain, she's been taking a more active role at these press conferences. And here she is saying that the peaceful no Kings protests this weekend are hate America rallies. Here, play this clip.

C (8:51)

And now they're gearing up for their I Hate America rally this weekend, a rally where they'll cheer for chaos instead of country. So take note of what goes on at that rally. Take note of how they put Americans first, really.

A (9:10)

And by the way, this was quite the Freudian slip here by Magamike Johnson, who said that we fought the Nazis, but we defended that evil ideology. You defended the evil ideology. I mean, it's obviously a Freudian slip, but a revealing Freudian slip. Here, play this clip.

B (9:27)

We, we have stood against that. We fought the Nazis, we defended that evil ideology. We roundly condemn it. And anybody in any party who espouses it, we're opposing that.

A (9:39)

Then we heard from Donald Trump's agriculture secretary this morning, Brooke Rollins, or as Fox refers to her as Brookie, is what they say. These. The Agriculture secretary and the host asks her, so, you know, Americans are upset. I mean, these farmers, they're saying, why are you giving $20 billion bailouts to Argentina or $40 billion bailouts and not helping the farmers? She goes, no, no, no, no, no. We're putting farmers first. That's how. Here, play this clip.

B (10:07)

One complaint I have to bring to your attention. Some Iowa farmers are frustrated because President Trump has putting $20 billion into Argentina to bail them out. They're worried that the administration is focusing on foreign financial aid at the expense of American farmers. Madam Secretary, what do you say to those Iowa farmers?

C (10:29)

Well, I understand the frustration from farm country. From farm country. But what I will say is. And I live it every day, but what I will say is this. The President's focus remains 100% on America first, on ensuring he has the farmers in America's backs. What I've heard the president say over and over, and Secretary Bessen, over and over, is that countries like Argentina, for the sake of world peace and world stability, it's important that President Milei is able to retain its leadership position in Argentina and very, very important that Argentina continues to partner with America. That's way out of my lane. I'm more focused on slinging soybeans and making sure we're selling cotton. But the message to the farmers is the president is here. He sees you, he hears you. We're going to do everything we can to not only make sure you have that bridge from this harvest to next year's planting, but that we again move into that age where they're no longer dependent on government checks. And that's what I'm aiming to do with the president's support.

B (11:27)

Slinging soybeans. I didn't know that's what you did with soybeans, but I'll take you.

A (11:31)

And then, of course, she has to blame former President Biden for why the farmers need bailouts today. She's like, of course it's their. It's Biden's fault. That's why. What are you talking about? It's Trump's policies that, like, whoa, everything's Biden, Biden, Biden. Trump's the president, unfortunately, and he screwed the farmers with the trade war against the world and with his tariffs. Everybody knows that it's not really a complicated one. Secretary Rollins here, play this clip.

C (11:59)

These are row croppers. So soybeans, sorghum, wheat, corn, cotton, everyone that really is currently caught in the crosshairs. But let's be very clear. This is a result of no new trade deals under Joe Biden. This is a result of going from an agriculture trade surplus under Trump 1 to a huge ag deficit after four years of Biden. And really the real culprit here is the cost of inputs that skyrocketed under the Biden years. 73% in interest, 47% in labor, 36% increase in fertilizer and farm equipment. These are all things that were targeted we're working on. So while the package is a little bit of a bridge from the Biden years to the golden age of Trump, we're also working to ensure we're bringing down all those costs of input. We can't afford to lose any more farms in this country.

A (12:47)

Well, there you have it, folks. Let me know what you think. That's what the MAGA Republican Congress members are doing this morning. We'll keep you posted. Every step of. Oh, let me.
