Everybody's doing so many different things here. So we will move by the way, new studio opening soon, which is awesome. You got to see it. It looks freaking amazing. Just putting the final finishing touches. Hoping to get you guys in there. So last night, like many of you, I'm sitting at my, my, my office. I'm watching Fox News. Benjamin Netanyahu, prime minister of Israel, of course, is giving a press conference with Donald Trump in the White House. And Donald Trump rather matter of factly drops the biggest public policy, foreign policy announcement in modern US history about Israel. He says, you know, let me just, let's listen what he said. I mean this happened. Play the cut if you would. We'll take over the Gaza Strip and we will do a job with it too. Will own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site. Level the site and get rid of the destroyed buildings. Level it out. Create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for the people of the area. Do a real job. Do something different. Just can't go back. If you go back, it's going to end up the same way it has for 100 years. Ladies and gentlemen, cue automatic media. Liberal progressive meltdown. People were losing their minds. Nobody knew what to do. Folks in the chat, how many of you were watching it live and responded how I did. He said that so matter of factly. And there was if you're going to make a major foreign policy announcement. Typically what they do in the past is they tee it up, you know, tune in at 8, whatever, big announcement. Nobody said anything. This thing was delayed for I think an hour and 37 minutes or something like that. And now I think you know why. Here's what I think happened. He's sitting there in the Oval Office with Netanyahu. He's obviously telling Netanyahu he's going to say this. And Netanyahu's got to be looking at him like, what, you gonna say that now? He. You're right. He's like, he probably laughed the first time. Like, no, really. Like, is this real? Q Media meltdown. Immediately, everyone lost their minds, folks. Joy Reid didn't even know what to say. They were on msnbc. Like, is this real? Do we react? Are we being played? Listen to me, okay? I'm gonna help everyone out here. I can't say this enough to media people who constantly misinterpret and overreact. This guy. This is the largest MAGA show out there, period. We're always ahead of it. We always drop W's because we don't overreact. And we know Donald Trump's debating and negotiating strategy. What is it? He does this all the time, folks. He drops a bomb, maximalist position. In other words, 1 to 100. He drops 99.6. He's actually thinking 55.7. But he understands that even though he's thinking 55.7, that if he drops freaking 99.6 and he gets 75.2, he's about 20 points ahead of where he was at 55.6. About. You get it? He does this all the time. 25% tariffs on Canada. OK, we're going to shut the fennel off. Okay, we'll delay them. He does it all the time. How many times are you guys going to get played? Holy shit. Watching the media overreact is freaking hilarious. Every time. What do you think he's doing? You think he's going to drop the 101st Airborne into Gaza tomorrow? I'm sorry, man. It's just comical watching these people after now four years and two weeks of Trump, the 2016 term and two weeks so far that this, he does this over and over and. You got any. Always drops W's to Abraham Accords. And people think they just keep falling for it. They. I'm sorry, I didn't finish my thought before. I've been so excited about today's show because I just. I feel like if people would just Watch this show, they would stop overreacting and have a better lick their finger. Feel for politics where the wind is blowing. My gosh. Did you guys respond like I did last night? I was telling the boys this morning when I came in, I hear this thing and it was like, he said it so matter of factly, I had to like rewind the thing. And I'm like, did he just say what I think he said? That the US Is going to take over Gaza. And I think the media was so surprised if you guys missed it. The first question wasn't even about this major foreign policy statement prescription he put out. The first question was totally unrelated. And then Kelly O'Donnell from NBC, who's no friend of ours, by the way, but I think was the first one who got it, basically grabs the mic and is like, did you say we're going to take over Gaza? Like she was the first one, I think who caught it, folks. He stakes out a maximalist position. Here is what's going on in Donald Trump's head. And I want you to think about this in context of the Abraham Accords. We don't cover a ton of foreign policy on this show. This is important because it's not just about foreign policy. It's about you are. This is going to happen for four years. The Trump people I know have assured me and other people that the pace of change is not slowing down. This isn't a two week thing. This is a four year thing. So you better get used to it. And if you're not watching this show and you're going to overreact to every single thing, your freaking blood pressure is going to be through the roof and your pulse rate is going to be 122 at rest. Everybody chill. Not you out there. You guys are awesome. You get it to the crazies. Joe, I saw Jonah Goldberg on Twitter. Things are getting dumber. No, you're getting dumber because you keep getting played. Here's what's going on. Think about it in context of the Abraham Accords. You know what, can you guys pull this? I'm sorry, I don't. Michael, look this up. John Kerry, there's a clip of him saying that there will be no solution to the, to the peace in the Arab world without fixing the Palestinian problem. You have to understand, with the Abraham Accords, Donald Trump, who does Listen to me, everyone, clearly everyone put the horse blinkers on right now. Donald Trump does not give a shit about how you did things in the past. Let me say that again. He doesn't give a shit. All he cares about is fixing problems. When the Abraham Accords came around, where we had the Bahrain deal and the other deals over there, you know, fly with the air traffic and everything, they were great deals. Everyone told him, do not bother. You will never get any kind of a peace or cooperation deal, however you want to frame it with Middle Eastern countries until you solve the Palestinian problem. Everybody said that if we can find the John Kerry thing, I'll play. But folks, it wasn't just lurch. John Kerry, everybody said that guy. Did everybody not say that? You don't fix the Palestinian problem, don't bother. Donald Trump's like, why? I'm just going to cut a deal and I'm not. I don't buy any of that shit. And you know what? He did and everybody thought he was crazy. So keep. Hold that, hold that thought. You can't do that. You're never going to cut a deal. Abraham Accords ain't going to happen. Fix the Palestinian problem. No, that's good. We'll fix that later. I'm doing this first. What did they, what else did they tell him? Remember when he moved the embassy to Jerusalem? What did they say? World War Three, it's going to be over. The Arab world will never accept it. The whole place will get nuked. Did that happen? No, it didn't. It send me the, Send me the World War Three articles you have that happened in the middle. They didn't happen. It didn't happen. World War Three didn't break out until Trump left office and October 7th happened when he wasn't in office. Everything these foreign policy experts. This is important, man. Listen to this, you dumb ass media morons. Everything the foreign policy intelligentsia has told Donald Trump about the Middle east has turned out to be bullshit. How does this apply to yesterday? Everybody freaking out, going to occupy the Gaza, the Middle East. Donald Trump is looking at Gaza, this little strip of land, tiny little strip of land, and Donald Trump, this waterfront, beautiful property that was, by the way, only handed over not that long ago to the Palestinians. So anyone telling you, oh my gosh, the Palestinians been there forever is full of shit. What was it, 2005? They handed it over 2005, not 1905. So let's not pretend this is some generational thing, OK? That's just the hard facts. You don't have to believe it. I don't care. It's reality. Donald Trump's been told, hey, man, the foreign policy intelligentsia said, you got to let the Palestinians and the Israelis work this thing out. Eventually they'll figure it out. And Donald Trump's like, but they haven't. But they haven't. The Israelis gave the land back to the Palestinians, who then used the land to bomb Israel. Whatever side you're on, you know where I stand on this. I've been very clear about my position, about who the good guy and bad guy is in this fight. Wherever you stand, can we both agree that's true? Did it happen or did it not end the story in the chat? I don't, I don't, I don't care how you feel. Just, can we agree on the facts? Israel, whatever, they gave them back the land. Did it happen? Ok, yes. Thank you. What happened? Attacks were then launched into Israel. Whatever position you have that happened, Trump's like, clearly no one's fixing it. So here's what he said. He probably walked into Netanyahu, probably totally blindsided him and said, hey, I, I'm going to really. Language alert. I'm sorry, I'm really. But it's important here because this is probably the language used. So I don't mean this for effect. I can almost guarantee you he walked in there and said something to this effect and probably used the language too. He said, guys, you guys fuck this place up. I'm going to unfuck this right now. I'm coming in there with the big stick and I'm going to fix this place if I got to develop the damn thing myself. If you guys don't unscrew it, I'm going. I'm telling you, that's what happened. You can believe it or you can laugh. I've been right about everything. You media people are always wrong here. You doubt me. Here's Politico playbook. I mean, these are like outright communists over at Politico. This morning they talked to some off the record guy. The official argued it's in the interest of other Arab powers, like Saudi Arabia, to find a solution to the conflict. Bongino's right again. Thank you. And that Trump throwing his ideas out there might inspire others to counter. As the source said himself, we'll see somebody gets it. Whoever Politico spoke to, shockingly, even a blind squirrel gets a nut is 100% correct. He's telling the Saudis, he's telling UAE, he's telling the Kuwaitis, the Jordanians, he's telling everyone in the region. You guys have not on this problem in 100 years. Fix it or I'm coming in there to do it. A couple other thoughts here. Trump is tired of the perma war, the permanent war status of the Middle East, Israel, Palestinians, Israel, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Israel, Syria, Israel, Lebanon, Israel, the Golan. He's tired of it. He is the commander in chief of the most powerful military force in the cosmos. He's tired of it. He's telling them, un f this situation or I'm telling you, we're going to go and take it. He doesn't want the perma war anymore. So for those of you out there saying, and by the way, I don't blindly defend anyone, and I hope you understand that President Trump and I have a lot of agreements on a lot of issues. That's why I support him. We don't agree on everything. But don't tell me this guy's a warmonger. He's doing the exact opposite. He's tired of this situation. Perma war is over. He's saying, number two, fix it or I will. Third, he is trying to refocus the Hamas demon savages who just continuously go to the table and renegotiate with on terror. We'll release a hostage. Yeah, we change our mind, it'll be tomorrow, it'll be the next day. We're going to hold a few more now. He's like, OK, I'll tell you what. You guys attacked on October 7th and you thought you were going to establish like some new Hamas level caliphate in the area and Israel was going to be wiped out and abandoned. Trump's like, he's telling both sides, you guys better work this out because Hamas now, you will have nothing. You will have absolutely nothing. I will take everything from you. He is telling these Hamas clowns, you better get out. We gave you a shot. You effed it up. It's time to go or you will have nothing. We will take everything from you. He is also trying to refocus the Arab world. He has repeatedly asked the Arab world, who claimed to be for the Palestinians, why won't you take the Palestinians in? Remember from, what is it, 48 to 67, who controlled the west bank, that area, Judea and Samaria, the Jordanians, why didn't they create a Palestinian state? Has anybody asked that question? Anyone? Jordan? No, we don't want to take in Palestinians. You're the ones advocating for the go take them in. Egypt's the same way. Egypt closing, Philadelphia. No, no, no, don't come here. We got to really take care of the Palestinians. So take them in. You got a whole shit ton of land. Oh, we don't want to. Trump says you don't want to. I'm emptying the place out. We're going to clean it out. Clean up the ordinance. We're going to get. By the way, he didn't. There's no. I don't want any taxpayer dollars paying for this. There's got. This has to be a regional thing. All you people say you want to help the Palestinians. Here's my opening offer. I'm clearing everybody out of there. You're all going to put in billions of dollars. You're going to rebuild the place, and then you can move the Palestinians and others back in. There you go. Here's what's your counteroffer? Do you not see what's going on? He's sick of the perma war, man. Stop falling for every single maximalist position. By the way, I'm going to get to this in a second. Got to take a quick break. As you can tell, I came in today fired up for this show for obvious reasons. Something came out yesterday with the CIA, the Central Intelligence Agency, almost the entire workforce was offered a buyout. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm not so sure these two stories are unrelated.

All right, back to the show. Man I'm sorry, what's that? Oh, you got the John Kerry thing. Okay, I'm not sure if you're going to hear this anywhere else. You may. I'm pretty sure we're going to be first on this. But let me play, you know, let me do this. Let me play John Kerry first. There is a story that broke yesterday about CIA officials and employees being offered buyouts, like a lot of them. And of course the media freaked out again. What's Trump trying to do? This is crazy. Why would we be getting the CIA? Why would be looking to get rid of some of these old school people? I mean, they've been right about everything. Winky, winky, nod, nod. I want to play this John Kerry clip and I'll explain why I think these stories are related. Here is John Kerry speaking, by the way, for old school, swampy Republicans too, who always said this. You will not do anything in the Middle east until you solve the Palestinian problem. Trump said. Eh, I'll try anyway. Check this out. I can tell you that reaffirmed even in the last week as I have talked to leaders of the Arab community. There will be no advance and separate peace with the Arab world without the Palestinian process and Palestinian peace. Everybody needs to understand that that is a hard reality. Where is. He's at the Brookings Institute where a lot of the people involved in the Russia collusion hoax worked. You starting to put two and two together, folks? I'm going to say something here that may be mildly controversial, but we don't really care, do we? Having the 2020 election stolen from us was a horrible thing, but I think Donald Trump has turned that into a huge W. How? No, I'm dead serious. I am as serious as a freaking stroke right now. 2016 was a warm up. I think the Trump team themselves would admit to you they were blindsided by the deep state reaction. I really would. They came in Trump's 20. He did a lot. The first term was great. The tax cuts, Supreme Court justices, the Abraham Accords. We got a ton done. Regulatory reform, no doubt, no zero doubt about that. We got it done in spite of a massive deep state reaction. Follow me here. But it was unquestionably a warmup. They figured out after that four years exactly the levers of power and how to manipulate them in the right way. And they understood where the pushback was going to come. They knew where the little holes in the chainmail were in the armor. Right? 2020 stolen. They do all of this stuff that gins up public support against the Democrats Stoke inflation and open borders. What could have been an apocalyptic moment for the United States where we may not have survived. Donald Trump comes back, rescues the country in an electoral rout. Every single swing state takes back the Senate, really control the Supreme Court takes back, wins the House. Donald Trump comes in with a vengeance, with an FAFO attitude and says now we, whatever, every single hole in the armor, in the little chain mail we saw, we are going to exploit now. And now he is on a warpath. How does this relate to this story? He is tired of the intelligence community lying about the collusion hoax, about the Hunter Biden laptop, about there's never going to be a solution to the Middle East. Mr. President, just sit down and shut up like every other Republican and Democrat. So you know what he said? If you guys can't provide freaking intelligence, then get the hell out of here and I'll do it myself. You want to see what happened? Play the clip from Jesse Waters show last night. I this, These stories are 100% related, you guys. He's saying to a lot of these and to not every single one of them, but to some intelligence folks out there. You guys have f this thing up. I've given you a shot. It's Trump time. Now watch this. CIA has reportedly just offered a buyout to its entire workforce. Everyone. The agencies telling employees late today they can quit their jobs and receive about eight months of pay and benefits. It's a part of Trump's push to downsize the federal government. Folks, the stories are. I'm absolutely certain the stories are related. He went out. You know, obviously, again, we use humor a lot, sarcasm to keep the show entertaining, but this is not an entertainment show. It's hopefully it's educational entertainment. Okay? He's not kidding around. The Fafo presidency is 100% a real thing. He has turned the 2020 thievery into the biggest W of all time. And we're only two weeks in at. And I have been assured by people in the know that this is not going to stop. You have four years. So I'm asking you this as I kind of get because there's a. I got a ton of other stuff to get to usaid, what's happening at the border. The winning is just. I'm serious. The winning is so overwhelming. These guys are saying we're not even. You don't want to see where we are in the show. Where are we in the show, guys? Elements. We're not into the first element. This stuff was added this morning. Look, that's my actual I don't know if you can see that. I had to add all this stuff at the top. The first line of the show we haven't even gotten to yet. I'm dead serious. They know I can't even cover all the winning. He is not kidding around. So I'm just asking you this. Do not. Oh, that hurt my knee. Oh, gosh. I moved at the wrong angle. I'm just asking you this. Please don't overreact to every single thing. I know that. I know. I know that doesn't apply to you, but to people who are new here, you know, the political normie crowd out there who hasn't been following this like we have forever. This is how Trump negotiates. He drops a PR maximalist bomb at 100. He's expecting a 50, but he knows if he drops 100, that 50 is the floor and he may get 75. He does it all the time. He is not invading Gaza tomorrow. I promise you on my reputation, he is not dropping that. A Marine unit, expeditary unit, expeditionary unit into Gaza tomorrow. He's waiting for a counteroffer. And if he doesn't, then we'll have to reset the argument. Everybody cool my explanation? Sorry, I'm following the chat because the chat is absolutely on fire today. I knew. I know I got to get to the spot, but I'm telling you, man, I'm watching this presser last night. I had no idea. By the way, you know, Donald Trump doesn't call me and tell me what he's going to talk about. I had no idea. I'm telling you, I almost fell off the chair. I'm not being silly or hyperbolic about it. I almost fell off the chair. I was like, I gotta catch myself. Like, did he just say that? All right, quick break, and the W's are coming in left and right. I haven't even gotten to my immigration story yet. This sheet is a mess. I can barely read it right. Like a doctor. I wish I thought like one.

Okay, back to the show. So folks, the W's are coming in left and right. The winning is so much and so voluminous that the left doesn't know how to respond. You know, self praise thinks but I don't really care at this point. I told you after the election in November when we won every single swing state that the next day that they were going to do the Rockham Sock Em Robots. Okay, you got the Trump face on. It's still not broken by the way. I told you that was going to happen. If you talk to people on the inside of the Trump orbit, they said this is it. We learned from the first term. We are not going to stop. We are going to hit them with everything all at once and they don't know how to respond. And that's why you see this chaos on the left and you're seeing all these W's. Bill Milluchin, Fox look at this tweet. This guy covers immigration really well. Again, the lowest number of recorded illegal crossings he's ever seen. Folks, it's only been two weeks. 446 across the southern border. 446. He notes that's unheard of. There were 11,000 plus in one day during Biden in December of 2023. Biden's final week of office. Remember where they were bragging about the border because they were flying everyone in was still 12 to 1400 a day. Maluja notes. Basically we haven't even passed any legislation yet. This was all done by executive action that I'd like to note. Joe Biden said what he couldn't do because he's full of crap. Folks. The deportation flights have begun to Gitmo as well. You come here, you break the law, you become a hardcore criminal and run the country illegally. You are not going to find your ass here. You're going to find your ass over in Guantanamo Bay. You don't like it? There's an easy way to not be in Guantanamo Bay. Don't enter the United States illegally. You doubt me? Here it is from the administration themselves. Check this out. Is not messing around and he's no longer going to allow America to be a dumping ground for illegal criminals from nations all over this world. And so El Salvador has not just agreed to the repatriation of their own citizens, but also illegal criminals from other nations who will then be sent to their prisons. Venezuela as well has agreed to repatriation flights. And Colombia also agreed to cooperate with the repatriation of illegal Colombian nationals that we have found in the interior of our country. And I can also confirm that today the first flights from the United States to Guantanamo Bay with illegal migrants are underway. Now, before I get to my next video here, Tom Holman, which is great. Governor Phil Murphy, liberal communist from New Jersey, thought he was going to play around. I think we're harboring it illegal. Tom Holman's like, really? We're going to come check that out. All of a sudden, Phil Murphy, governor of New Jersey, is changing his mind. Before I get to that, I want to get big picture again. Pull yourself out. Bird's eye view here. Tie this back to the Trump negotiating strategy. I opened up with the beginning of the show. Trump's negotiating strategy, which has been led to a series of wins we have not seen in a two week period, I think ever, is based on him dropping the maximalist position from the start. You don't want to unscrew the Middle East. We're coming in, we'll fix it for you. Okay, how does that tie to this? Because the thing about Trump's debating strategy and negotiating, negotiating strategy, excuse me, is a maximalist position only works. Follow me here is if sometimes you mean it because they don't know. If you're always bluffing, no one's ever going to do anything. Correct. So when Trump takes a maximalist position and gets no results from say, Democrats, sometimes you got to follow through. How does that relate to this story? When Trump originally brought up the Gitmo idea, I'm telling you, there are people on the left like, ah, take him, you know, seriously, but not literally. He's not going to actually send people to Gitmo. Oh, no, he's, they're going, no, it's, it's happening. Do you get what I'm saying? The reason his maximalist positions work is because the Arab world, Mexico, Canada, they're like, wait, is he really going to do that? If it's not believable, nobody would respond. So be cautious too about going, oh, he's bluffing. He's not bluffing. He's taking a maximalist position that if he doesn't get results, you may see and it'll be a different show. Here's another one, folks. Cutesy time is over. I don't know how many times I got to say this. This guy is not messing around. You are going to get your ass kicked if you are an anti Trumper for the next four years. If you don't understand. He's not kidding. He is the president. You have one way to get rid of him. Impeachment, and you don't have the numbers. I'll get to that story tomorrow, by the way. It's already in the works. By the left, of course. Like I said, here's Tom Homan, our border czar, who's been a gift to this country, what a patriot, talking about the New Jersey governor saying, you know what, we're harboring an illegal or something like that. And Homan's like, really, folks, they're not kidding. Check this out. Let me read a headline to you. Chicago leaders encourage residents to exercise their rights in resisting Trump's deportation policies. The governor of New Jersey, Phil Murphy, basically admitted that he knew somebody that didn't have full documentation that he was hiding over his garage. But there's someone in our broader universe whose immigration status is not yet at the point that they are trying to get it to. And we said, you know what, let's have her live at our house above our garage, and good luck to the feds coming in to try to get her. Your comment on all of that? I think the government's pretty foolish. Same way sick is. I got note of it, won't let it go. We'll look into it. And if he's knowingly harboring, concealing an illegal alien, that's a Violation of Title 8, United States Code 1324. I will seek prosecution or the secretary will seek prosecution. Folks, cutesy time is freaking over. He's not kidding. I don't know what the governor thinks he's doing. When you're the governor of a major state, you are not immune from federal law. The Democrats just made a huge argument about Donald Trump should be locked up for actual official acts. Governor Murphy appeared to just admit to committing a crime completely outside his job scope on a public interview. That's how stupid they are. But again, the maximalist position, because Homan and Donald Trump are obviously working. If you just submitted to a crime, they're going to investigate. If you think he's kidding, good luck. I don't know how many times you guys are going to get burned by this. Folks, there is big money for the left in illegal immigration. I've already told you how they use the demographics of illegal immigration because they talk about it all the time. Just put in a search engine Democrats demographic destiny. You'll see a thousand sound bites. They use illegal immigration to keep their voting power and their populations high in blue states so they can keep their members of Congress and maintain electoral college power. But there's another reason they love illegal immigration, too. And the other one is there's huge money in it for left wing NGOs that then go out and gin up support for Democrats as they're taking money from the government for illegal immigration. Did you see this clip? These numbers are staggering. There are big, big dollars to be made if you support an open border. You want to know why people love illegal immigration? Follow the money, bro. Watch this. I'd like to ask Mr. Carroll and anybody else would like to answer this. Can you name some of these NGOs that have specifically taken these hundreds of millions of dollars and not used it to protect these children? Catholic Charities, Lutheran Family Services, Jewish Family Services. I spoke to a gentleman that works in dhs. He actually sends the electronic fund transfers. And I asked him, sir, tell me who you were, who do you send, who are you responsible for and how much is the largest check you cut? He said, I'm over Jewish Family Services and I cut a check for $600 million. And I said, is that for like three years? And he told me, JJ, get in the game. That's two or three months and it's renewable. That's one NGO. And I say, well, Catholic Charities is bigger than Jewish Family Services. Yes, they get the same. They get the same or more. I don't care what your religion is if you're breaking the law. I'm a Christian. I would never support a group that said Christians for illegal immigration. Folks, there's big money in this. And to the opponents of Donald Trump, he is not kidding. There is a reason he's got Doge in there. There's a reason he's got Elon in there. Cutesy. Time has absolutely come to an end. Pete Hegseth. Secretary Pete Hegseth was down at the border. Secretary of Defense as well. They have now effectively moved military assets to the border because they are telling you and they're warning you the freaking borders close, bro. You think we're kidding? You're going to find yourself in a prison or in Guantanamo Bay. Do not test us. Here was Pete Hagg said, this is quick, but the secretary was down there at the border, was talking to a bunch of our military officials here. And this is what we need. This is why the recruiting numbers just two weeks in have spiked to highs we haven't seen in 15 years for our military. Thank you to all the wonderful patriots who've signed up. We love you. Here's Secretary Heg said, we are war fighters. That's what we do. It's not A freaking social justice experiment. Our military. Watch this. It's real. It's real straightforward. We are war fighters. We train to be legal. We train to prepare for and fight wars. Our nation requires us to do so, full stop. And defense, folks, have you ever seen such a transformation like this, between the border, between the military, between Elon and Doge, and the gutting of government agencies that have worked against our interests for years. Have you ever seen anything like this? I'm telling you, reminds me of the movie 7. Remember, remember when they're trying to find a serial killer, Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman. And he whispers in his ear, have you ever seen anything like this? Folks, I knew Donald Trump was coming into office to shake things up. So do many of you. You know, I knew the Rockham Sock Em was coming, but I got to tell you, honestly, I. This is far surpassed my expectations. He's not kidding around. And he's hit them with so many different fronts, they don't know what to do. Now, yesterday I said it's his most important fight yet, this fight with usaid, and I'm sticking to that. Usaid, not usaid. Don't fall for the scam. It is not an aid organization. It is a deep state slush fund screwing over America. The left has chosen this fight, at least for yesterday, until the Gaza thing happened last night. They have chosen this fight to melt down over because they realize if they don't have the deep state funding, a censorship operation. And by the way, Chris from Rumble, Chris Pavlovsky, the CEO of Rumble, he tweeted out this morning. So let me get this straight. Usaid, did you see the story that broke this morning? USAID was funding left wing media outlets in the United States to the tune of millions of dollars that then went on and attacked Elon Musk and Rumble. Chris tweeted that out and then Elon wrote like, agreed, like, look at this. Do you understand your tax dollars are being used to censor you. That's why the left is freaking out. They have to censor you or else leftist stupidity will be exposed as you expose it. You're the media now. So the meltdown continues. It was a deep state slush fund, usaid, and it was a jobs program. Now you're starting to realize. Is this starting to make sense to you folks in the chat? Man, pay attention. This is really important, okay? Do you understand everything I've told you is now kind of coming to fruition here? Everything the left does is fake. Their media model is fake, funded by your taxpayer dollars. And BS their elections, fake their base, fake their media audience, fake their issues, fake. Everything the left stands for is fake. Trump has exposed all of it in two weeks. That's why you see this last night. Joy Reid, who at the end of this claimed later on that this is a coup, this battle against usaid. She of course is the gold medal winner in our dopey media talking head Olympics. This. Expect these meltdowns to continue as they realize they can't censor us, at least with our own money anymore. Watch this. We begin tonight with a full on crisis in our democracy as federal workers are literally locked out of their offices while operatives working for a private citizen essentially take over our government. Their tactics include turning off our federal websites, deleting government funded research that you, the taxpayer paid for, to impose speech codes, bullying news organizations by demanding interview transcripts, implementing an FBI purge, locking federal workers out of their computers, and even turning them away at their offices, while giving themselves, without congressional or any other authorization, full access to the personal data of tens of millions of Americans. The personal data of tens of. You mean like the OPM hack that happened under Obama or the hack of our infrastructure system under Biden? So you've got an American citizen, by the way, subject to the same rules. Everyone else are doing nothing illegal, going in and looking at payment systems that have paid off terrorists. Everyone else. And Joy Reid's freaking out about it. Why? Because when the money dries up, so does the censorship. And then idiots like Joy Reid, if they can't censor you, are forced to defend their own stupidity. That's why they're freaking out. Have you ever seen anything like this? I know you haven't because I'm 50, so I'm going to guess 50 years old, that about half my audience is above and below my age. I have never ever in my 50 years on this planet seen anything like the last two weeks ever. I don't know how I'm going to recover from this show after four years. I'm going to have to start taking blood pressure medication. Here's a USAID employee. This is an ABC segment talking about how Elon and his and his crew of the mini brainiacs came in to look at the USAID system and all of a sudden they started putting away the pride flags. And all of a sudden it's a workplace, it's not an activist zone. You want to put all that stuff up, fine. You have these beliefs, fine. Put them up in your own house. It's a constitutional republic. Notice how that's the first thing they focus on in their government jobs, by the way, check this out. Was late last week that the Doge team showed up at USAID offices in Washington and demanded access. USAID employee Christina Dry described the scene. Doge was in the building. We started, we took down our pride flags, we took down, I took out any books I felt would be incriminating. No one was talking. We heard they started taking transcripts automatically of all of our Google Meets. They unplugged the news in the little kitchen galleys. It didn't feel good. And then Saturday, all of the websites went down. And then I lost complete access to my computer. Notice the sense of entitlement with these employees. As if that this job is somehow their own personal business, not a taxpayer funded enterprise that's been working against US interests. Ladies and gentlemen, USAID is a huge deal. It is the biggest fight right now. That's why always measure the effectiveness of what you're doing by your opponent's response. They are freaking out at about a level eight and a half out of 10. Because when the money trained to all these left wing organizations dries up, then they stop ginning up voter support. They stop knocking on doors for Democrats. If you're like, oh, it's only $40 billion their budget. Do you have any idea, folks, the Donald Trump presidential campaign was about a billion dollars. Can you imagine what $40 billion will do? It's a huge deal. This is a great clip. It's a little long, but I want to let it play out. It's about a minute 30. It's worth your time. This is Glenn Greenwald and the great Mike Benz, who is our deep State specialist. I want you to listen to the question and then bends his answer about usaid, how usaid, everything they do is never what they say they do. If they say it's a water project, it's really some anti democracy project. And how they have this sense of entitlement, like, hey, hey, just give us the money and shut up. That's why they're so offended about what's going on right now. Watch this. Whether you like it or not, Donald Trump has deputized Elon Musk to have this agency that's designed to eliminate waste, as the White House sees it, wasteful spending, unnecessary spending. And so when the people that are part of this effort that Donald Trump has created after he won the election went to usaid, and it's happened to other agencies too, you see almost this physical resistance, like, how dare you come into our realm? You have you don't run us. You're just the elected part of the government. Where this agency that exists independent of you, where does this mentality come from that they have this right to pursue their own agenda independent of any elected officials or elected parts of the government? Well, there, the entire agency exists as a carefully constructed lie. And just like James Clapper and you know, John Brennan and Leon Panetta, these are the holders of the great American closet of skeletons of state secrets. And you don't just hand that over to a random taxicab driver because 51% of the population elected him because he does funny TikTok dances. What I think what I'm trying to say here is if you remember the recalcitrants around sharing, sharing intelligence with President Trump Both in his 2016 presidential run and then again in the, in the lead up to the 2024 election, I think what's happening at USAID is, is essentially an echo of that, which is that USAID is supposed to be untouchable. I mean virtually. There's no USAID project on God's green earth that is honest. That is probably the most critical piece of information you can have. The USAID effort genuine. They're not out there trying to help people. They're trying to enact a bunch of anti democratic and prop up a bunch of NGO left wingers who are going to help Democrats stay in power. That's it. That's why you saw an insurrection yesterday up outside of usaid. You did, yeah. Did you miss this? By the Democrats own definition of an insurrection, invading buildings, walking through open doors. This was an actual insurrection. This happened yesterday. This is why they're freaking out. Watch. This is about 15 seconds. Check this out. As you probably saw, Elon Musk and his crew put a gag order on AID employees. They disconnected them from email, which is putting lives at risk around the world. So we are here to enter the building and so we can hear firsthand from whoever is here at AID or at least witness firsthand what is happening with this Elon Musk attempted takeover, which will not stand. We will prevail. Let's go. And then they go and walk in the building. I thought walking in the building was a freaking insurrection, but like the Chewbacca guy or something, folks, they're freaking out because the gravy train man is over. The Heritage foundation put this tweet up and they're so right about usaid, which is the Deep State piggy bank number one. The Deep State's not a thing now. They're like okay, it's kind of a thing, but it's not that significant. Remember Margaret Brennan. It's only 1% of spending. Now, number three. Okay, the deep state is significant, but it's a great thing. We got to defend it. Now we're at number four. If you're opposed to the deep state, then you're the problem. Citing dopey ass Bill Kristol. The deep state is far preferable to the Trump state. That's Michael Anton. The deep state's not happening, but it's great that it is. Let's defend it. I got to show you this. I can't leave. I can't leave without showing you this. Everybody stand by. Don't even dare go anywhere. Everybody needs to see this. I'm sorry, that sounded kind of like a toolbox thing to say. Don't go anywhere. This is absolute peak Donald Trump. Did you see this yesterday? Just goes to show you how a guy who is just this high level negotiator, probably one of the most skilled politicians of our time, based on pure results, man. Pure results. Won three elections in a row, Right? But he can also be funny and endearing at the same time. I know you may have seen this. This is the presser yesterday. Woman gets up to ask a question. It was about Afghan women. I had a hard time understanding too. She had a very thick accent, but Donald Trump had to let her down a little bit easy. This is fantastic. Check this out. I have a little hard time understanding you. Where are you from? Actually? It's a beautiful voice and a beautiful accent. The only problem is I can't understand the word you're saying. But. But I just say this. Good luck. Live in peace. Go ahead, please. Did you guys see that as it happened? This is just peak Donald Trump, man. It's just who he is. No one plays the room like a puppeteer like this guy. Nobody. Nobody. He drops this major foreign policy bombshell totally out of the blue, stokes out a maximalist position. The whole world responds and what, eight, 10 minutes later, he's got everyone laughing. Hey, I'm sorry I can't say it's a beautiful voice, but live in peace. That's just peak Donald Trump.
