Welcome to the podcast where every episode promises an unfiltered dive into the eclectic, the profound, and sometimes the absurd. No topic is off limits. Nothing is sacred, and political correctness takes a back seat.
[00:01:14] Unknown:
Hey, folks. This is Joe Rusciello, and it is great to be with you once again on a beautiful, beautiful, absolutely beautiful Thursday night here in Eagle Pass, Texas. And we are, as always, live at the Asylum Studios, bringing you the best quality talk radio we can muster without all the bluster from the pimple on the backside of Texas, the beautiful city of Eagle Pass. Welcome to the podcast. Folks, it's great to be with you again on another night with the podcast. I am so sorry that we didn't do a show last night. That was our plan. Episode 21 should have been last night, not tonight. Today should have been 22. But last night, what had happened was we decided to, redesign the studio, I guess, you would call it.
It's not something we weren't really planning on doing. It's something that we had in mind to do for a couple of weeks, but because of the wonderful federal postal service not delivering the new desk that we had ordered on time and lying to us about attempting to deliver it on the on Saturday, the, whatever date was. You know, they made a big deal about it, dude. They they made it seem like that it was like this huge package that needed to be signed for, and somebody had a beer to collect. Well, you know, Wayne's here with us from from, from Washington state, and he'll be on here in just about a second or two. He came with me to the post office to pick it up because we had scheduled a redelivery of the thing, and it it it didn't show up. It was supposed to come Monday, didn't show up. Tuesday, didn't show up.
So yesterday, I I called the postal service, and they were like, well, you you probably just been in love going to pick you up. So, I ended up going over to the post office to pick it up, and, Wayne came with me. And the box was so big. It was so unbelievably big that it fit perfectly in the back seat of the car with no problem whatsoever, didn't have to put the seats down, didn't have to do anything. So, we got back here to the to the to the studio. We set the thing up and, redesigned the studio. Now one of these days, the next thing on the on the, the the the check off list that we have is to get cameras where we can put them up in the corners of the room, and then we can switch between cameras so you can see the outlay of the whole room.
And, I have to tell you, I I am I am pretty impressed with myself that, between Wayne and I, we got this thing put together. Again, it was just too late to get the show in, but it looks pretty pretty awesome. Wayne, what do you think?
[00:04:21] Unknown:
Well, Joe, it's an honor and a privilege to be in the show tonight. And, being a former postal employee, things have changed. Yeah. And so, that was more of a reconstruction
[00:04:30] Unknown:
of anything. You had to do a lot of construction work, and place looks great. Well, thank you, sir. Thank you. And it's great to have you here with us. You know, it's actually, you know, I've gotten used to having second chair. And, you know, it's gonna be it's gonna be kinda sucky to when you're not here to do second chair with me. In person, anyway. We're we're gonna we're gonna attempt to to, connect, remotely, and, and do this. So for for those of you who who may not understand what we're doing here, we we do actually have, Wayne's he he's just literally sitting across from me. And if I could turn the camera around, I would. You know, why not? Let me try. Hold on.
There he is. See, there he is. Right across the way from me. And here's the rest of the room. Looking good. You know, we're doing our thing here. And now I messed up the camera, so we gotta fix that now. Oh, I got the on air in in the shot now. Yeah. Look at that. Awesome. We don't want that, though. We wanna bring this down. I know I shoulda did this before. I'm
[00:05:44] Unknown:
sorry.
[00:05:47] Unknown:
I just realized it's a good thing I'm wearing pants. Usually, I don't when we're doing the show. So come on. That was funny. Laugh. Thanks, Wayne. My side my sidekick over here with no comment whatsoever.
[00:06:04] Unknown:
Well, when guys tell me you're not wearing your pants, it's it's it's a moot point for me. Well, you told me you like it. So Yeah. It's comfortable. Yeah. They're called shorts. Yeah. I showed up in Texas in shorts.
[00:06:14] Unknown:
That's right. Yeah. And of course, it's like, oh, what is it right now? Let's see if we can get the I don't know. I don't want the boobs. It's, 23 degrees outside right now, and in the studio here, we have a beautiful 60 degrees in here, and, I think we're comfortable. What what did you say? It's balmy.
[00:06:35] Unknown:
Balmy.
[00:06:37] Unknown:
We were having dinner earlier, and we were talking about, Bob Murphy of the the New York Mets. How he used to say tanks like, it's a beautiful day. It's a balmy 74 degrees here at Shea Stadium in Queens, New York. The sun is shining, white billowy clouds above. It's a beautiful day for baseball. New York Mets. The rubber game of a four game set. Whatever it was, I don't remember. But, my camera's all out of whack now. Let's see. That's what you do when you try to improv. How's that? Is that better? Drop a comment in in the, in the chat, or you could, drop a comment down below. Let us know what you think, folks. This is the podcast, and, as usual, we try to bring you, you know, a little bit of insanity here.
We got a lot to talk about today, bro. Yeah. We we absolutely do, and there's a ton of things that have taken place over the last, well, since yesterday, since we started this this whole thing, the fix up and everything. But, one of the more important things, I think that came up, and, you know, we'll we'll do our rundown in just a minute. We came up with a little, little shtick to do, so we're gonna try that in a little bit. But, one of the more important things that came up, Kash Patel was confirmed today as the as the incoming FBI director, which is a great victory for, for the president, and, we are extremely, extremely happy about that. Are we not?
Yes. Yes. Yep. Very happy about that. Thrilled. Absolutely thrilled. A little slow on the board there. Sorry, buddy.
[00:08:20] Unknown:
Things will be different at the Federal Bureau of Intimidation.
[00:08:23] Unknown:
Yes. They will. Yes. They will. But, you know, before we get into all of that stuff, what I'd like to do is just do a little bit of housekeeping here, and, something that we do need to do. We do have to pay some bills. So, first of all, if you would, head over to our website, joe russello dot com. Joe russello dot com. I'm thinking about changing the website so I can make it a little bit easier for people to get to, but, you can definitely head over there. And when you get there, open up that little contact form that you find in our contact section. And when you get there, just, you know, let us know whatever's on your heart, whatever's on your mind. Any questions, comments, cares, concerns that you might have, any issues that you might, like to hear Wayne and I discuss.
And, you know, if you have any suggestions or any, you know, criticism, critiques, we'll just try to keep those to a minimum. We'd appreciate it. But, but definitely let us know what what you're thinking. We would love to hear from you. And if you don't wanna use the web form, totally fine. Totally get it. That's why we have the email address at [email protected]. That's [email protected]. Also, while you're on the website, if you would, please take a look at the support section of our website. Extremely important. I think more important than the actual contact section itself, but, just take a look at the support section, and I need you to remember that this is a value for value podcast.
Alright, Joe. What does that mean? Well, Wayne, thanks for asking. Value for value is basically means that, that we are totally dependent upon our listeners for support. And if you have received anything of value from what we're doing here, anything at all, even the slightest bit, we're asking that you return that value in the form of a donation, and that donation could be in your time, your talent, or your treasure, the three t's. And, like I said, you have to remember that we are totally dependent upon you guys to to help us keep this whole thing funded, to help keep this whole thing going. And, through those donations, you can make a one time donation in any amount that you feel is appropriate, based on the value that you're getting from the show.
And, we would appreciate that. It doesn't matter how much it is. We every donation, every penny that comes in, we we greatly appreciate. If it wasn't for some of the donations that we've received, we wouldn't be able to have made the changes that we've done here in the studio and improve the, the whole operation here. So we we really do appreciate, all of those donations. Now, you could also donate your time, and, donate your time could be very simply. You could do some research for us. Maybe, you have that extra time on your hands where you could, get online, look for some articles, looks look for some, audio clips, and get them to us, and just let us know what, you know, what direction we should be going, and, you know, that's that's very, very helpful to us. You can donate your talent.
And it's not just limited to that by the way. I mean you can donate your time in many many ways for the show, or you can donate your talent, like I said, and that's something like maybe maybe you write music, and you wanna write some kind of a bumper piece for us. Maybe you have a great speaking voice, and you wanna record an intro, an outro, or a or a or a stinger for us, and coming back from a break or whatever, you could do that for us. Or maybe you have, maybe you have technical abilities where you could run the website, or maybe you could do, audio and video, you know, any number of those things are greatly greatly appreciated. So you can donate that, and of course again, you can donate your treasure. And you could do it in in cash, or you could do it, you could do it through cryptocurrencies.
You know, we do have a crypto wallet, it's up on our website. You can donate Satoshis or Sats, which is basically just a micro payment of Bitcoin, And, when you really translate it, it's it's like pennies. But, they we appreciate those. All of that helps. Somebody donated a month ago. I think I mentioned it the other day. Somebody donated about, I think it was like 7,600 and something Satoshis, which was enough to cover the, the cloud monitoring of our of our show's wallet. So that was very, very helpful to us. We we we really do appreciate that. Now, if you really wanna get daring, and you really wanna, to to help us out because these are the things that we we we truly rely on, you can set up a monthly recurring donation of $17.76.
When you set up that monthly recurring donation, you'll receive the associate producer's credit. And, basically, what that is is that, for that monthly recurring donation, your name will be included in all of our show notes, and you'll get a shout out on every show as an associate producer of the show. Now you could also do a monthly recurring donation of $18.36, and, and with that comes the associate producer credit. And it's the same deal. You get the shout out on every show. You get included in all the show notes, everything going forward. And then we also we have for a monthly recurring donation of $25 a month, you get the coveted, the prized, the most sought after credit you can imagine, and that is the executive producer credit. And you get not only the, the shout out and the, the inclusion of all of our show notes, but, you know, we'll dump a little extra work on you too. It's good. It's good. Works good for you. That's right. Wayne can tell you. Wayne Wayne and, Rosanna Rankin are two of our executive producers, and, they have done a spectacular job in helping with the podcast behind the scenes, and they've done their their donation of $25 or more a month has been just absolutely critical to what we've been doing here, plus all the other stuff that they they they've been doing for us. So so we we really do appreciate that, and those things are critical.
We are we are so dependent upon those recurring donations because we're able to budget, and we're able to set things up, and and under and know what's coming in every month, so we could, make the changes and do the things that we need to do to keep the whole thing flowing smooth.

So thank you so so very very much. I'll get a better sound effect. I just haven't found one yet, so I'm using an actual physical bell here. And that's actually, Wayne and I were talking last night about that. That's actually a nod to a good friend of ours, a good friend of mine, Tommy Manno, Tommy Batts, who we used to do a live show with back in New York back in the day.
[00:22:59] Unknown:
Alright, Wayne. Well I got a little fessed up here. I'm sorry for the I'm gonna apologize to you in the audience. Fessed away. A drop of, oh, whatever. Mind wandering. The US is playing Canada tonight in the, four nations final. And there's actually a little something behind this, Joe, and I just got the I just got the intel. At the last game, which is, I think, Montreal, and during the new American national anthem, Canada peep the fans were booing. Well, my intel's telling me that in the booing in the crowd was Jean Pierre, the governor of Canada.
Oh, yes. This is the word I just got from one of my sources that, oh, Trudeau has been kinda, you know, let's go. Let's let's let's get this going on the booing. And they actually, one of the phone people caught when somebody caught on his phone.
[00:23:47] Unknown:
Oh, wow. Okay. So I you know, like I said, president Trump called the team today. Just go, you know, represent your country. Well, when when Wayne Gretzky is the governor of the fifty first state, you know, we won't have to worry about guys like that. Right. Right. You know, we'll we'll we'll just be fine. Yeah. So Alright. Well, guess what, brother? Yep. It's time for the news. FBI nominee, Kash Patel confirmed in narrow senate vote. The Trump effect, migrant border encounters dropped 38% from Biden's last full month in office. It's already made a massive dent in illegal immigration.
Trump orders agencies to stop taxpayer funding for illegal migrants. Kinda cheesy. I know. No. And but I thought that was kinda fun. And a little bit old school. Old school is okay. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. But we have, a lot of of news to cover. A lot, really. And, of course, the first thing we wanted to cover was Kash Patel. Mhmm. Long awaited. The, sign the senate Democrats did everything they possibly could to delay this and delay it and delay it, but all they really were doing were delaying the inevitable. Mhmm. And, finally, today, in a very, very, very close vote, it was, 50 where was it? Fifty one forty seven on the vote. And, interestingly enough, the the turtle, Mitch McConnell, yertled the turtle. Yeah. He, he voted in favor of, Cash Patel, and the, the two Republican holdouts were, Lisa Murkowski from Yeah. Alaska and Susan Collins from Maine. And, I I mean, they should just caucus with the with the Democrats at this point, you know, or switch parties or something because, I mean, they are constantly siding with Democrats.
[00:25:38] Unknown:
Yeah. And, Ryano, they they put the capital r in Ryano. Oh, which oh, for sure. For sure.
[00:25:44] Unknown:
But this is a long time coming. This this is gonna this is sending shock waves through through Washington DC, through the, through the FBI, through the intel communities because, Kash Patel has committed to exposing a lot of the things that were being buried by Chris Wray, and, and previous, FBI directors under the Biden regime, things like the Epstein client list.
[00:26:09] Unknown:
So that's gonna be a big one, you know. It's gonna be huge. Just a little, ditty I got from him. He's gonna get people out of the buildings. These guys have gotta leave. They gotta go do their job. Let's go get criminals. That's what was one of the things I I I'm gonna press conferences, little the little bits I got there is, just like a lot of the other government people say in in the building or they're staying at home, but the FBI is they're they've been too laxadazy, of course, with their leadership too. So if you don't have the leadership, they're not accountable. Right. Yeah.
[00:26:40] Unknown:
They're not gonna be spending what what was it? 3,000 Yeah. FBI agents to track down grandma Yeah. Wandering through the the the halls of the Capitol 4 Years ago in January 6, and for doors that are held open by the, by the police and by folks at the Capitol. Mhmm. And, you know, they they just they're able to track her down. Right.
[00:27:05] Unknown:
I would I do some I do mission work and people maybe think, you know, what country? America. Actually, I do a lot of mission work in Canada. I run across a lot of missionaries and people in clergy, and this is a eyewitness of mine. And one of the pastors and his son were doing it doesn't matter what city it was, was across the planned parenthood, you know, silently protesting, you know, saying their prayers. And they went back to their cars, and this is what happened. They They took their license plates, the FBI guys or whoever planned for it was. Well, the FBI did show up at the door. Mhmm. So that's, like, is what they say, weaponizing it? Was he was that what Trump was saying and Cash was saying? Or is that a way of weaponizing, if I'm using the right word, against our citizens? Yeah. Weaponizing we're weaponizing the judicial system. Yeah. And so For sure. That's kinda actually terrifying. Well, when you think about it. Absolutely. Of course it is. And, especially, this is a first our first amendment, man. And it's been it's been it's like the the bully. You know? He may he may, pick on people, but he's gotta send his strong arms to get the the rest of the work done, the hard stuff, the street work, you know you know, do the real muscle work. That's That's why I could call it, like, the mob. Let's get the muscle in there. Yeah. That's what they've pretty kind of been, like a mob, you know, with intimidation, you know, and threatening people. It's kind of like a mob.
You know, the the the mafia. And so Cash, I I what little I read on him and the way he stood his ground with the the senate, hearings and how he would say, I'm going to defend the constitution of The United States. I and he went by, using the constitution and the amendments
[00:28:35] Unknown:
to defend himself because that's what he was gonna raise his hand for. Yeah. According to Fox News, top judiciary Democrat Dick Durbin claimed on the Senate floor that Patel had had been behind recent mass firings at the FBI, citing that he described as highly credible whistleblower reports indicating Patel had personally directed the ongoing purge of FBI employees somehow prior to his confirmation. Now how how that's possible? You can't fire nobody if you're not the director. Right? Correct. Yeah. I mean, this you know. Now, of course of course, you know, the the Senate Republicans, you know, they describe that, it's it's a baseless allegation. Right. They said, according to the article, a politically motivated attempt to delay Patel's confirmation Right. And by a Patel aide who described Durbin's claims categorically false. The person told Fox Digital that Patel flew home to Las Vegas after his confirmation hearing had been sitting there waiting for the process to lay out. Patel, a vociferous opponent to the investigations to president Donald Trump and and, one who served at the forefront of Trump's twenty twenty election fraud claims vowed during his confirmation hearing last month that he would not engage in political retribution against agents who worked on the classified documents case against Trump and other politically sensitive matters.
But his confirmation comes at a time when the FBI's activities, leadership, and personnel decisions are, being closely scrutinized for signs of politicization and retaliation. Let's see. So what I found interesting here was, again, how is it that he was directing people to quit and get fired and fire people? And there there was something I wanted to say about it, but I I lost it. I I have a quick question for you, Joe. They always have they always have a whistleblower somewhere that wants to say something, and of course it was it wasn't that. It was a it was a it was just an attempt by the f by the deep state, the FBI, you know, people on the left trying to just delay and derail
[00:30:43] Unknown:
Cash Patel's nomination. God, brother. I'm sorry. Okay. The the the Democrats, there's gonna be retribution. You're going in vengeance and revenge. But what was the crimes he's going after? If you commit a crime and you're in this organization and the crime still has, you know, consequences. Right? Mhmm. That's not retribution. I think we should look this up if they there's money missing. I I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm saying, what happened to all that gold the FBI never found? There's no retribution. Let's go find the crime. Let's go find the consequence of that crime. But when they use words in their own matter, but retribution isn't going what the FBI has done, committed crimes against citizens and their country.
It's going after the crime and then the criminal. Yep. And if there's criminal if there's, you know, criminals in the FBI, that's law.
[00:31:35] Unknown:
Now, Kash Patel had a number of national security roles during Trump's first administration. He was, chief of staff, to acting defense secretary Chris Miller, senior adviser to, the acting director of National Intelligence and the National Security Council. He worked as a senior aide on counterterrorism for former house intelligence chairman Devin Nunez, and he fought to declassify records that he he alleged would show the FBI's application of a surveillance warrant for 02/2006. 02/2016 Trump campaign aide Carter Page was illegitimate, and he also served as a national security prosecutor in the justice department. So, you know, Kash Patel Sounds qualified. Sounds very, very qualified. Right. More than qualified.
But, of course, you know, the left is gonna do whatever they can to try to derail the whole thing and but, you know, thank thank God we're at the point now where he's been appointed, and my understanding is he was sworn in immediately after Mhmm. The confirmation vote was received, and he is already on the job. And I am really, really looking forward to seeing, what he's gonna be doing in the, in in in the days, weeks, months ahead. Really excited about it. I think it's about time that there's some accountability coming forward from from, our top law enforcement agency
[00:32:50] Unknown:
in the country. I think this is the position they feel feared the worst. Yeah. I mean, Tulsi,
[00:32:55] Unknown:
you know Yeah. And and all the other positions Well, I think Pam Pam Bondi's appointment and and Cash Patel's appointment are the two Right. Key appointments that they've been most concerned about. Close to home. Because you because you remember during the confirmation for Pam Bondi and for Kash Patel, all they talked about was, will you say and would you affirm at this point that that you will not Right. You know, pursue political retribution? That's all they kept on. They're worried about it because they know that if there was to be any, they they're in deep they're in deep doo doo. Right. Right. To say it mildly. Right. What was on that laptop? Right. Yeah. Exactly. And I'm looking forward to all that stuff coming through. Yeah. And so, like I said, the other positions,
[00:33:40] Unknown:
secretary of state, that's out of that's out of DC mostly. Mhmm. I mean, you know, they're Marco Rubio has been doing a good job. He's been over in The Middle East and some other places, and he's representing the Trump administration really well. I've seen him in an interview with Netanyahu, which that's a mess over there. I mean, he's got a lot to do, but he seems to have a good rapport with Netanyahu as, you know, one of his first, you know, international visits. And but like I said, this is DC. Those Those are the two positions. The attorney general is gonna be there, and the FBI is there, which I don't know. Are they in Virginia? I'm not I don't know where their headquarters are so much. The FBI is, but, they really
[00:34:16] Unknown:
tug a war with getting him in there. They put they put as much tug against him as they could. Yeah. Yeah. Well, Well, let's let's switch gears here for a moment. I just wanna I wanna bring up this piece that I found in Breitbart. They they they call the article here a Trump effect. Migrant border encounters dropped 38% from Biden's last full month in office. The apprehension of migrants illegally crossing the border from Mexico along The US South Southwest border fell by nearly 38% in January as Donald Trump was sworn in as president, when he took the oath of office on January 20.
During Biden's last full month, in office in December, border patrol agents encountered more than 47,000 migrants in a month, according to the February Southwest land border encounters report from US customs. In January in January, the number of migrant encounters fell to twenty nine thousand one sixteen.
[00:35:11] Unknown:
There we go. That's 38%.
[00:35:14] Unknown:
During Biden's inaugural month, January 2021, agents apprehended more than 75,000 migrants, and then that number increased from that point, peaking to nearly 250,000 apprehensions in February.
[00:35:30] Unknown:
Yep.
[00:35:32] Unknown:
The the Tom Homan, he seems to be a pretty sharp guy on this, and he takes no gruff. Yeah. Actually, I have a I have a I have something about Tom Homan later on as we get through the headlines, because he's not only setting his sights on, on AOC, but there's a there's a there's another, hopelessly stupid, representative, unfortunately from Texas No. That he has his his sights set on now and made very similar comments. But, something that that's kinda, you know, you know, close to close to us here where where where we are at least in in Eagle Pass, the El Paso, Tucson, and Del Rio sectors rounded out the top five sectors with, 480 4,871, four thousand seven hundred 20 seven, and 3,467 migrant encounters respectively.
Shoo wee. So that's that that is that that is a significant drop in the amount of counters. So basically what's really happening here is, you know, the the migrants are turning around going back. They're not even making the attempt to come across the border because they know they're gonna be met with that with that, the the welcome mat the welcome mat is not gonna be fully extended. Yeah. And the hotel vultures won't be any good. Yeah. Yeah. There you go. Yeah. There was another piece too. I think it was in town hall. Let me just pull that up here. Border crossings plummeted considerably since president Trump won the twenty twenty four election a president election, according to report by US Customs.
This particular report notes a whopping 85% drop in apprehensions at the southern border compared to the same time period in 02/2024. This suggests that Trump's election has discouraged many would be illegal immigrants from attempting to gain entry into the country. There were 61,465 apprehensions along the border in January. In December, the agency reported 96,048 border patrol apprehensions. And then, at the Southwest Border in January 2024, a year ago, it was a hundred and seventy six thousand one ninety five. Wow. So really notable notable drops in the apprehensions. And that and that's that's that's what that's what people voted for. Well, there's also a presence there. It
[00:37:54] Unknown:
seems like the one of the, scenes I've seen, they just showed vehicle after, you know, border patrol vehicle and people manning the border, you know, and and that's a presence. And I'm sure, like you say, this won't be tolerated. And I might joke of there won't be any hotel vouchers. That's been well documented. What's happening there is illegal immigrants getting nicer hotel rooms and and different places. So, yeah. It's amazing to how quick a time things have really changed.
[00:38:24] Unknown:
Yeah. The New York Post actually reported too that The US is on track to have the lowest monthly border crossings, in at least twenty five years. Yep. Okay. That's huge. Right. That's and, according to the piece, apprehensions dropped about 90%.
[00:38:40] Unknown:
Right. And it's one more little cog in all of this of, you know, saving money. The inflation and it it it it's so, spreads out on all the different things, you know, health care and and and and money and taxes and things that we're not gonna be so, pressed with. People coming over here that don't have nothing to give but take. Yeah. That's that's it puts a lot of pressure on an an economy.
[00:39:05] Unknown:
It it absolutely does. Absolutely does. Here's, another piece I wanted to get to. You and I talked about this too yesterday. You you I think I think I think you brought it out. Like, you came out of the other room. You were like, hey. Did you hear this? Yeah. That, Donald Trump terminated all Biden era
[00:39:22] Unknown:
US Attorneys. Yes. They're gone. Yeah.
[00:39:25] Unknown:
I think I have a clip. Let me see if that's And the USDA,
[00:39:28] Unknown:
director, she's gone, USDA. And she actually had to be escorted out.
[00:39:33] Unknown:
So Yeah. Donald Trump posted on, Truth Social Mhmm. Which is, of course, you know, his his, media site, which is great, by the way. My recommendation is is, if you really want to find out, what president Trump is doing, you go to truth social first because he's he's gonna post it there first. I don't trust anything I see on x or Facebook or any other social media platform because if I didn't see it on truth first, then I don't then it didn't happen. Alright? But, here's a here's a here's a post from Donald Trump. Over the past four years, the Department of Justice has been politicized like never before. Therefore, I've instructed the termination of all remaining Biden era US Attorneys.
We must clean house immediately and restore confidence. America's golden age must have a fair justice system that begins today. Fair. And, of course, you know, Donald Trump was targeted by the, this highly politicized assistant system over the last four years, and it it's just been it was actually to me anyway, I don't know about you, or or if you're listening, you know, let me know. Drop drop a comment in the chat, drop a a a mess a comment down below, or shoot us an email, let us know what you think about it. But to me, anyway, it was painful to watch. Mhmm. All of the false allegations that are being made, all of all of the lawfare being committed against, the former president, all of the ridiculous bullshit, charges that are brought up against him, and I think probably one of the best owns ever is the fact that he has his his mugshot posted in the Oval Office. I think that's hysterical. I love that.
[00:41:13] Unknown:
That's who he is, man. You know, he I I think he whatever it is, he probably made money off of those T shirts and mugs and everything. This started back on the escalator when he came down in '6 or, yeah, '15. I remember that. The first four years, let's impeach him. The next four years, let's arrest him. The the the craziest thing was too is that back in 02/2016,
[00:41:34] Unknown:
he he hadn't even won the election. No. And they were already talking about impeaching him.
[00:41:40] Unknown:
You know? So Just like Cash was already, firing guys before he's even sworn in. Yeah. Exactly. Ex is this the same Is this the time machine they have, Joe? Do they have a time machine? I wanna get it. I don't know, brother. I don't know. But,
[00:41:55] Unknown:
but, one of the great things that are coming out of this is that, my now this is our it's from a couple days ago, so it's twenty eight days into his administration, and this is, you know, he began the process of removing all these, all of these Biden age or Biden era, attorneys. But, house Republicans actually just recently announced that they were, pursuing impeachment proceedings against two federal judges that are blocking, the president from, performing his constitutional duties. Right. Remember that the president of The United States is he he's the chief executive officer of the country. Mhmm. Alright? That's article two of the US constitution. Okay. He is the chief executive officer. He is also the chief magistrate in the land. Okay. Okay?
He's also the chief law enforcement officer. There you go. It's he you know, the Lot of titles. Exactly. And and a lot of people are under the mistaken idea that the attorney general is the top cop in the land. Right. No. No? No. It is the president of The United States. The president of The United States actually has a lot of authority and a lot of power. He was elected, basically hired by the American people, to perform oversight over the other two branches of government, which are the legislative and the judicial. Right? Mhmm. I think I remember my, you know, my Saturday morning cartoons. Schoolhouse Rock. Schoolhouse Rock. Alright. I forgot what it was called for a second there, but thank you brother. I appreciate that. You know? Don't let the gray hair fool you, man. You got There's there's some that little chipmunk in the wheels working. Yep. Yeah. But the hamsters on the wheel. Yep.
That's why we call him Wayne the Brain. Oh, yeah. But, but, but, yeah. I mean, I mean, that's that's his role. His role is to oversee Yeah. The day the daily day to day operations of the federal government. And you can't have the judicial branch telling the chief executive officer, no, you can't you can't do your job. Right. Because then what happens? That he doesn't do it, he gets stopped, and then they start blaming him for the problems that are coming because he stopped, and they they they gonna start the impede. I mean, you know, Al Green already is is trying to bring impeachment charges against him. For what? Dastardly deeds done and dastardly deeds spoken? I mean, what is that? I I don't even think that's I don't even think that's that's constitution language, you know. And I I know we talked about it that in one of the shows earlier on, but but, even Pam Bondi said recently that, that, the the Trump DOJ issued charges against the state of New York. Kathy Hochul, the ridiculous worthless hag of a governor, and and good old Tish James, and, the the DMV commissioner because of the green the green light laws. You know what the green light laws in New York? No.
The green light law in New York is that, the state of New York is issuing driver's licenses to illegal immigrants. Allowing them the opportunity to drive around the city to do to give them the opportunity to drive, to vote in local elections, and they're actually defending this in court. They're trying to say, no, this is right. We're allowed to do this. So the so the, the DOJ is of course bringing charges. Now when people say charges, they think, you know, automatically it's, oh, you know, criminal charges. It's not it's it's civil, and, and and it all has to do with, allegations against, or or crimes related to illegal immigration.
So, it's, you know, it it it New York is a mess. Yeah. It's an absolute mess. I am so thankful I escaped from New York. I have to get the theme music from that movie Escape from New York, so I can I can roll it in? Right. Pliskin. It's Take Pliskin. Where's your eye patch at? That's right. That's right. I think you know what? Did I tell you that I I I I used AI? Oh, did you? To generate a picture of of me according to my posts on on an x. K. And, do you know what AI generated a picture of of me? You know, stick closer in? No. They the AI AI generated a picture of of of me as as a black man with an eyepatch.
Okay. I can see that. Can you believe I'm gonna have to I have to I have to get that on the on on to the the studio player here so I can show it to you because I it was hysterical. It I was like, you've got to be kidding me. I used Twitter's AI or x's AI. I was like, hey, Grock, you know, generate an image of me based upon my profile picture and my posts on x, and it comes up with a picture of a of a of a black guy with an eye patch. Yeah. The eye patch is kinda cool, actually. Right. You know? And, obviously, I'm not a black guy. You know? Right. But, not that there's anything wrong with that. But, you know, I have I don't have the eye patch. I want one now, though. I wanna try it out. What do you think? Should I? It looks pretty You look pretty shocked in there, matey.
[00:47:00] Unknown:
So I'll come in with an eye patch and a pirate hat. Yeah. You know? And and and another thing I think the left doesn't understand too We're gonna need some of this right now. Trump is the, the the com the commander in chief of the military. He he he's he's the commander in chief. He may have never stepped one day in an army base or air force base or whatever military base. Yeah. But he's the commander in chief, and there's some messes there. It's it's there's a lot of messes with the transgender movement there. And I have a intel in there or someone who's in there going they're, not fighter pilot, but, helicopter pilot in Afghanistan, in the Obama administration, and o Biden, and they were running out of bullets. They were running out of,
[00:47:45] Unknown:
maintenance stuff, oil. You could go to the simple stuff. Just an oil change on those vehicles. That's how pathetic it got to be. Well, you'll know why too. Yeah. There there's a couple of reasons why for that. Not not other than the obvious that they cut and cut and cut. Right. But how much of it did they send to Ukraine? Exactly. And how much of it did they leave in Afghanistan with that messed up withdrawal? 80,000,000,000. 80 billion? Billion. 80 billion of your tax dollars. And I'm sure the Chinese And military equipment were left with a bunch
[00:48:17] Unknown:
of sand fleas. Yeah. And I'm sure the Chinese and Russians
[00:48:21] Unknown:
that made a beeline to that, you know, artillery there too. Oh, yeah. But but, of course, that that that stuff was used against, you know, for terrorism and Yeah. Terrorist attacks and used against our own soldiers and used against Israel. You you know, the the the Biden administration set this country back so far. It's so short of time. So fast. Ridiculously fast. And, you know, it's just thank God the adults are back, and they're in charge, and they're and they're and like I said the other night, you know, the reason why Donald Trump is so popular is promises made. Yeah. Promises kept.
Everything that he's doing, and and I have a I have a piece up here somewhere. I'll find it. I have, like, 900 articles and clips and stuff to go through here. That's why I'm popping them up on the screen a little bit because I can't see. They're too small on the on the studio thing. It's been a good twenty eight days. Yeah. No. It's been great. It's been it's been amazing. Another another thing I came across too as I was looking through Breitbart, Trump orders agencies to stop taxpayer funding for illegal migrants. President Donald Trump has ordered his agencies to scrub their regulations and spending programs to ensure illegal migrants are not getting taxpayer funds via hidden channels.
It's pathetic that he has to do that, but this is a long time coming. Well, you you were sympathetic.
[00:49:46] Unknown:
I mean, sometimes you you can use words, not as name calling, but as descriptions. Pathetic is pathetic, Joe. I mean, if it's if you do a pathetic job at the on your on your job and and whatever whatever it is, that's a pathetic job how you, stack the cans. They they they're never gonna stand together or whatever. It's pathetic way of they administrated everything across the board, every agency across America, no matter what it is. The fire's in LA. You can you can go back to bad management. I've done I've done forest fire fight forest fire fighting. That was long term comment, and they were warned. You keep the reservoir filled. That's right. Yep. Yep. Now, Trump signed this executive order titled preserving federal benefits for American citizens late on Wednesday. The policy could save
[00:50:34] Unknown:
tens of billions of dollars per year, but the full economic impact will not be known for many months because Trump's deputies must find the aid programs, change the policy, and fend off lawsuits, and then gradually rewrite regulations to stop more funding. Democrats will furiously protest Trump's aid cutoff because the cash flows through their vast and vital farm teams of supporters at government agencies and nonprofits. So this is a great piece, by the way, on on Breitbart. You if you haven't seen it yet, you should definitely check it out. Kinda lengthy, kinda detailed.
Actually, I I think I do have a clip from it. Let me just I wanna skip down ahead here for a second. For example, roughly 1,000,000 migrants who were improperly given parole entry into The United State into The United States can get funds for housing, child nutrition, education, work, training, and much more. Similarly, any when an illegal immigrant woman has a child, she gains access to many aid programs because she has she is the guardian of an infant American citizen. That goes back to the fourteenth amendment, birthright citizenship, which is not the intention of the fourteenth amendment. That's another story for another day. Yep.
So, and the the piece goes on. Under Biden, agencies and Democrats in Congress aided by, get along GOP appropriators and business lobbies quietly provided more than $30,000,000,000 to migrants via a variety of federal programs. For example, Biden's deputies at the Department of Health and Human Services spent $22,600,000,000 on migrants via a wide variety of Democrat aligned nonprofit groups. The funding was unveiled by a group called Open the Books. Let's see. But, there are many other loopholes where noncash government aid is is, sneaked to illegals, often via Democrat armies, the Democrats' army of supporters employed in nonprofits, federal agency, and state governments. For example, this week until this week, roughly 26,000 youth migrants have taxpayer funded lawyers who are paying to win green cards for the migrants.
The 200,000,000 per year program is run through the Department of the Interior, which provides grants to nonprofits that distribute grants to many small law firms. I had no idea that the Department of Interior took care of that. Similarly, the staff at the Department of Veterans Affairs were used Veterans Affairs were used by by President Joe Biden's deputies to guide new migrants toward the loopholes that allowed migrants to get taxpayer funded health care. And, let's, let me see. Let's let's see. Do I have that clip here for us? Yeah. Right here. Let let's take a listen to this.
[00:53:20] Unknown:
Did the VA, under the previous administration, move resources away from veteran care into benefits for illegals? Is there a way to,
[00:53:35] Unknown:
without wasting time taking up your time, investigate that? Did it happen? Yeah. Or do are we gonna look into it? I think what we've found is as far as not so maybe much invested, but we actually took time away from what I call veteran care to process, health applications and stuff is what we've seem to find. And we're still looking into this. That's gonna stop. And I mean, I know they weren't putting illegals at Walter Reed. I mean, I No. No. No. No. No. But but there was use of resources that were going to help process this this mass claim that could be better directed to Okay. So some manpower That's what my
[00:54:05] Unknown:
manpower. That is not again, we're not saying that benefits. No. You know, illegals were getting surgeries
[00:54:10] Unknown:
for Walter Reed. That would be a benefit. Power may have been used. Yeah. And that's what we've seen so far. Again, without a complete picture, but that's what is is, we've looked at and where those numbers were being processing using processing claim times and everything else. I would rather much rather either give that to the other agency or take those people back and process their own claims. Okay.
[00:54:28] Unknown:
Alright. Now that clip was from, the Will Cow majority, conservative talk show on, serious patriot. Great show, by the way. If you haven't checked it out, definitely check him out. Wilkow Majority. I actually met Andrew Wilkow, a couple of times. Great guy, solid guy, solid conservative guy, and, just has a good show, a really good show. But, not only that, but Democrats also spent $750,000,000 to settle migrants in North Carolina and then use disaster funding to aid migrants Oh, boy. Hit by the fall, by the fall flooding. Which I was at. Yeah. Alright. Yeah. You had mentioned that to me.
That's insanity.
[00:55:06] Unknown:
It this is like a shell game, isn't it? You know, one of those street shell games or, you know, a guy in the cars in in New York, you know, on a little guard table, and he's he's telling you which one to pick and, you know, it's these guys are they're pretty good. Yeah. They're pretty good. Now,
[00:55:22] Unknown:
just kinda shifting Okay. Gear here a second. Elon Musk, did an interview, with president Trump and Sean Hannity, a few days ago. Uh-huh. And, made a very interesting statement, and it's it's he said that Biden because we all know that that, the International Space Station, you know, I know we're shifting from one extreme to the act to the next, but it all it all comes together. It all it all fits together here. The International Space Station, which, by the way, I got a funny one on that one, but the International Space Station, they sent astronauts up to the space station. They were supposed to be there for eight days, but strangely enough, they had Christmas decorations, hats, candies, and gifts, and stuff like that, you know, after they got stuck there.
But
[00:56:11] Unknown:
another story. Yeah. You know?
[00:56:14] Unknown:
Some of you might some of you know what I'm talking about already, but okay. So, Elon Elon Musk, in this interview with, with, President Trump on Sean Hannity on Tuesday night, made a very interesting statement. He said that, that, that Biden left the ISS astronauts in space on purpose k. For political reasons. Tesla CEO and Doge chief Elon Musk accused former president Joe Biden of leaving two astronauts stranded aboard the International Space Station for political reasons. They were left there. This is a quote. He said they were left up there for political reasons, which is not good. Musk's SpaceX mission launched a Crew Dragon capsule to rescue the pair, but guess what?
NASA has stalled its return. I don't believe that. No. How could you? NASA, which in Hebrew means you don't know? I don't know that one. NASA in Hebrew means
[00:57:18] Unknown:
deceiver. Oh, that's okay. Isn't that interesting? Yeah. It is. Very interesting.
[00:57:23] Unknown:
The tech billionaire told okay. So we just ventured into It's like a spare thing. But
[00:57:31] Unknown:
we're still up there though. Yeah. Right.
[00:57:33] Unknown:
The the tech billionaire told Hannity the craft will return to Earth in about four weeks after the plans were postponed, as and this is a quote from Elon Musk, and I and I love his directness, and I guess this is this is the Asperger's in the magazine, but, you know, after the plans were quote unquote postponed, kind of, to a ridiculous degree. At the president's request for instruction, we are accelerating the return of the astronauts, he said. I I think I do have a clip here. Let me see if I can find it. Yes. Here it is. You're committed to getting to Mars. You're committed to rescue you're gonna help rescue next month
[00:58:09] Unknown:
two astronauts
[00:58:10] Unknown:
that I think were men, and they they dispute that in an interview. When are you when are you getting president's request, we we or instruction, we, are accelerating the return of the astronauts, which was postponed
[00:58:22] Unknown:
kind of to a ridiculous degree. They got left in space. They they've been there they were supposed to be there eight days. They're there almost three hundred. Biden.
[00:58:29] Unknown:
They were put. Yes. They were left up there for political reasons, which is not good.
[00:58:33] Unknown:
Okay. It's not good. No.
[00:58:36] Unknown:
Alright. So I I I first, I love I love President Trump. Mhmm. Biden.
[00:58:42] Unknown:
I know. Like China.
[00:58:44] Unknown:
China. Biden. I don't I don't do a good Donald Trump. I I I I admit that. I've been trying. I really have. The only time that I even get close to a good Donald Trump is when I've gone through about half a bottle of Paul Sutton bottled in bond. So that's about it. So it's not gonna get any better than that. But, and I'm nowhere near that, although I am having some, this is a buffalo trace. Okay. So this is this is not too bad. And then, of course, I have the the the coffee here with the sambuca in it. So, yeah, so this is our routine on on show night. We get hammered while we're doing this. You know what we need to do? Yeah. The You know what we need to do, brother? We need to do that. I got a great idea. Yeah. For a show segment. Okay. We have to do whiskey Wednesdays. Okay. There we go. So on Wednesdays, we do a show where we talk where we'll sample different whiskeys, and we'll just and we'll critique them. Hey, sir. Working on some sponsors right there. Yes, sir. Yeah. You know? But I digress.
[00:59:40] Unknown:

[01:01:31] Unknown:
From the White House. So Stephen Miller, he, he he had a very interesting exchange with CNN, which I love these exchanges with CNN. These things are just freaking believable. I was gonna say the other word, but I censored myself. Because I learned something by the way. Okay. If if I say fuck Oh. I have to change the setting on the on this on the show when we distribute it to explicit, and then a lot of places won't play it. Oh, got it. So I'm gonna I'll say fuck, but I'm not gonna change the thing to explicit, and we're gonna surprise people. What do you think?

You know? That piece of shit loser. I know. Old But but getting back worn out, tired. But Getting back to Musk real fast, I'd like to just throw this in there to redeem what I was saying jokingly wise. Yes. Go ahead. The guy doesn't take a subject, and he doesn't, disrespect it at all. No. Whatever subject it is. These guys were left there, and his mind is still rolling going, how do I get these guys back?
That's exactly he's not thinking about money he's making. He's not thinking about his fame, his fortune, or anything like that. How do we get these people back? Mhmm. And Trump yeah.
[01:02:54] Unknown:
Biden. He it was one word, and no you didn't have to know anymore. That's all I have to say. Biden. It was Biden. You know? I saw I saw a great meme, the other day on, I think it was on mines. Mhmm. And, mines, by the way, it's a great platform. If you if you haven't been on it, mines.com, it's it's it's uncensored fun. It's just a load of fun. I've been on mines for years, and I never really stayed too much on it. But, it is just I I've been on it so much more lately, and I I am just enjoying it thoroughly. But I saw this great meme on mines, and, it was a picture of it was a picture of, Joe Biden.
And, it said, his his new nickname is Dash because that's all I'd be remembered as the dash between forty five and forty seven. I thought that was great. I'm gonna get that too, and then put it up in our in our rotation here one day. Okay. But Actually, that might dash is a little bit fast for a guy that's pretty slow. Bad. I know it's bad. Unless he's running to the have his diaper changed. I don't know. But he might move kinda quick for that.
[01:04:02] Unknown:
Yeah. Digressing. Never digressing. Okay. But you know what? Trump, he's like he has so much material, and I I I I don't you know, someone's to watch from. And they showed him when, Harris was speaking, and the just his brain was, the sec the press secretary. Tulsi was there. She's on her phone trying to write his he's just letting it rip and just going this back and forth on how he was answering her, sitting in the chair.
[01:04:30] Unknown:
He's brilliant too. He always seems to be at least he always seems to be at least four or five steps ahead of everybody. Easily so. You take him and Musk. Oh, man. Well, that that's why they're like besties. They they they hunt out all the time. They're like buddies. Yeah. You know? So and they have they they have a love for their country. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. Absolutely. People are starting to feel it. You know, I it I don't think in my lifetime I mean, Ronald Reagan loved America. You could tell he was great president, you know, I mean, like any president, he had his faults, he had his little little things, but I don't think I've seen an American president in my lifetime that loved this country Oh, man. Loved the military, loved law enforcement as much as Donald Trump.
[01:05:16] Unknown:
Absolutely.
[01:05:17] Unknown:
And I think I and I think that's part of the reason why the American people are Mhmm. So if I can use the word, maybe it's the wrong word, but but enamored with him. Enamored. They they they Relatable? That he exactly. You know, he may be a billionaire real estate person and but you know what? He relates to the average person on the street. He talks like them. He speaks like us. You know, he he he's just a regular guy who states the obvious that has a lot of power behind him. And that's that's really it. I mean, you know, one day one day you'll have that kind of power too, and you'll say something, and and all and all of your minions will drink the Kool Aid and Yeah. Right. You know. That's the compound. But everybody of I've seen a good one. They had, trumpets down in in, the sun My last brother. A little busted. I am in here. It's boiling it's boiling in here, man.
[01:06:10] Unknown:
No. It's, he's he's a great one liner, man. I'm I'm Wayne's being so serious to me. No. No. I okay. Okay. That's it, man. Okay. Let's drop these things right now. Benny was a who's that famous one liner here? Benny Hinman, take my wife, please. He's like out of that hole. Penny. Penny Youngman. You know? And he Trump's like that, you know, with Hillary. This is gonna go down to my grave. You know, when they put me in the embalming and everything, I'll still be aware of it. But when Hillary was saying something,
[01:06:37] Unknown:
wrong. Yep.
[01:06:40] Unknown:
That was for the ages. Yes. Of course. Wrong.
[01:06:43] Unknown:
You'll be in jail.
[01:06:44] Unknown:
Yeah. It's me in jail. I'm telling y'all. Cash for chow. He's our man. Cash, you go after him and go. Go. Go for him. You know? Yeah. He's he's he's he won't throw you under the bus. Of course not. No. And when you do throw him under the bus, you know what? He doesn't need to as they say, retribution retribution. He can expose it. He go, the guy, he let us down. See, that's what Trump's saying to everybody. He didn't let me, Donald Trump down. He let us down.
[01:07:12] Unknown:
We didn't hear that for four years. No. Oh, we heard it's your fault because you're, buying your kids' groceries. You're an you're you're just an average white guy clinging to your Bibles, your guns, and all that stuff. Yeah. Right. And You know? You know, why should your kids have groceries? And you're a man.
[01:07:28] Unknown:
That's a good point right there. So, but, that's what I've I've I've I've really seen the difference, and also, he's he's approached it completely different. Yeah. These guys were not my friends the first time, and I'm bringing in people from all walks of life. And all parties, affiliates, and what have you. His supporters across the board. It's not just Yeah. It it it he he is cracking through every demographic right now. Right. Yeah. So For sure. But, no. Let's stop saying that. For sure. For sure. But, I he he under he he understood about, you know, immigration, you know, immigration, what they were spending, the it blew states on on, a no fund, a no growth fund. You know? Growth funds are kids going to school, kids getting educated, and we we have a unbalance of social security disasters. As Elon said today. It'll be broke at this year, and this would be this would be out of money at this time. And Mhmm. What he means that, when there's no money, we're done. That's right. People will be insolvent, which I'm not I don't know all the financial means, what insolvent completely means, but No money. Sounds like trouble to me. That means no money. There we go. No money, and, they could print all they want. Trump, I'm getting rid of the penny.
[01:08:41] Unknown:
Well, you Reagan. He's war's wire out here. Well, you think about it, though. It it takes it takes 2¢ Mhmm. To make one penny. Right. Only a Democrat wouldn't understand that math. I know. You know, but so, let me just let me just kinda circle this back here really quickly, not to sound like the the the the, the toilet brush from the last administration at the podium there. Yeah. But, Stephen Miller, he he gets he gets up on on, on CNN. And I'm I'm gonna ask you a question, brother. I just want your honest opinion. Do you do you think that there is or or or there was with this last election cycle, do you do you think that there was a definitive conservative electoral sweep and a national tilt to the right?
In a lot yes. And in some places, we didn't expect it. Right. Yes. Now the problem is you have news outlets like CNN Right. Who just can't seem to grasp the sense of reality that that actually happened. Right. Alright? And it's it's it's almost like they have it's it's what is what is it called? It's, it's a psychological term, adjustment disorder. Right. It's like it's like people on the left, the media folks on the left have this thing, an adjustment disorder. They're having a hard time adjusting to a new political world. There you go. And, and and really, you think about it. It's been a really, really long time, a really long time that, you know, being a a a a reporter or a newsperson, you know, you know, it was a working class job. It it it's it's been a long this is now the elite, you know, the these folks. That's how they they perceive themselves to be, you know, and and these these and they're they're so removed and they're so out of touch with the average American right now, that, they just cannot seem to wrap their mind outside of their own little bubble of a life and world. Right.
You know, when you think about folks, more than half the country voted for Donald Trump. Right. Alright. Was this what was the final? Was this 79,000,000 people voted for Donald Trump? Yep. Close to 80. You know? So so we'll just we'll just say for argument's sake, 79,000,000 people voted for Donald Trump. The majority of those people that voted along with Donald Trump voted for his policies on illegal immigration, having the government recognized as only two sexes, stronger national defense, ending the woke stuff, the DEI stuff. Taxes. Taxes. All of that stuff. All of that.
But the thing is, if you watch mainstream media, if you watch the mainstream news, you're not gonna find that out. You're not gonna know that. You're not gonna see that. Why? Because they're stuck in a bubble. They think that this is a they they think that this election was closer than what it was. Right. This was a this was a national wipeout of the left ideology. Yes. Alright. And probably one of the greatest clips that I came across was this clip with Stephen Miller and, and and CNN. It's a little bit of a long clip. Alright? So I'm gonna play it though. It's almost four minutes. Alright? And if we need to, we can jump in on it, and we'll make comments. You know? Wayne, just lift your hand up. If you need to say something, I'll try to pause it. Okay?
But just you know, I I you need to hear this. This is how it's done. And the look on on on on, what what was her name? Oh, I can't remember her name. I think it was Keller or Keeler or something like that. Brianna Keeler. The look on her face when Stephen Miller just drops the truth on her, and she has no comeback to it.
[01:12:58] Unknown:
Oh, boy. This old song just popped in my head. Darn it. It dropped the bomb on you, baby. Yeah. We dropped the bomb on sorry. Good song. Good song. But check this out.
[01:13:08] Unknown:
Steven, thank you so much for taking time for us. So who is in charge of DOSH?
[01:13:14] Unknown:
The president of The United States.
[01:13:17] Unknown:
He's the administrator of DOSH?
[01:13:20] Unknown:
No. The Doge is the what was formerly US Digital Services. It's an agency of the federal government that reports into the office of the executive office of the president Which, by the way, was started by Obama. President of The United States. Okay. The way that article two works is a president wins an election, and then he appoints staff,
[01:13:40] Unknown:
including myself, including Mike Waltz, including Susie Wiles Yes. Including Elon Musk, and those staff report to him. Okay. Well aware. So Elon Musk, a week ago, answered a question about transparency at Doge. This is how he spoke about Doge.
[01:13:56] Unknown:
Well, we we actually are trying to be as transparent as possible. In fact, our actions we post our actions to the the Doge handle, on x, and to the the Doge website. So all of our actions, which are are maximally transparent.
[01:14:11] Unknown:
But you hear him there. We post our actions. All of our actions are maximally transparent. Does Elon Musk know he's not in charge of Doge?
[01:14:22] Unknown:
Again, the president runs the government, then the president appoints advisors including Elon, including myself, including all the other staff here at the White House, and then those staff in turn execute the president's commands and directions to all the agencies of the federal government.
[01:14:39] Unknown:
This is how democracy works, something that we treasure in America. The whole American people go to the ballot box. They elect the president. The president appoint staff. The staff that administer his orders and directives across the whole US government. Okay, Steven. I get that. But this is important because we wanna talk about who's making the decisions here. There were 300 employees, the National Nuclear Security Administration. You know about this. They were fired. The agency had to rescind those terminations because these were employees who were critical to maintaining the nation's nuclear stockpile. So then who is it making those decisions of which federal employees are terminated?
[01:15:15] Unknown:
Well, in that case, the secretary of energy would be the one. So what you're describing, with the the cuts in the Department of Energy, those are directed by the senate confirmed secretary of energy.
[01:15:26] Unknown:
Okay. So that was the secretary of energy's mistake?
[01:15:30] Unknown:
Well, I wouldn't use the term mistake. I would say that it's pretty standard when you're downsizing government. You make cuts. You assess those cuts. You see who needs to be rehired, who needs to be kept, who needs to be That's not what happened here, though. You know that. They were they were rescinded. I under These these aren't normal things. These are termination that we're going to be I understand that a that even a temporary interruption in federal employment is a great crisis, a catastrophe for you and for CNN. What the American people see is a government that is finally delivering a promise of accountability under president Trump. You wanna have a conversation about transparency.
Let me ask you a question. Do you have any idea where the $22,000,000,000 that the Department of Health and Human Services provided to illegal aliens under Joe Biden is right now? 22,000,000,000 with a b. That's enough to provide a free house to every homeless veteran in America. Where's the $22,000,000,000? I don't know. You don't know. Nobody knows. Joe Biden just spent it, and now it's gone. Transparency begins with having an accounting over every federal dollar spent. And God bless president Trump for leading this effort. Steven, it seems like the crisis here had to do with
[01:16:43] Unknown:
the nation's nuclear stock pile and for these particular federal workers, which which I'm not, so this isn't my personal crisis. Military members
[01:16:52] Unknown:
of the Guard I don't think it's a crisis anymore. About this. Well Well, this I don't think it's a crisis, and you don't think it's a crisis. Then why are we talking about it? Military
[01:17:04] Unknown:
Sorry.
[01:17:05] Unknown:
We went from housing to legalist to nuclear weapons.
[01:17:10] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. Discory.
[01:17:18] Unknown:
It's snack time here on the on the podcast. But he's just You caught me. No. But Steven didn't flinch. And and he kept on, you know, kept on his policy of this is what happened. This is what this is what, you know, left and right. Okay. This is what left and right is. And it's a funny thing that we're on the right. But the thing is, what happened to the 22,000,000,000? Tell me, I don't know. CNN doesn't know. That's right. And nobody knows. Biden doesn't know. No. And she just sits there, like I said, like, a Fuse News Network, and I get my older buddies wrestled up at this. Fox isn't our buddy either. Okay? In the I love Fox. It's fair and balanced. K? Okay. Owned by who?
Some Australian. You know? And so, where you get your news from is a lot of times where you get your opinions from. And if it's all you get it from one source, like some people I know, that's you're not gonna change your mind. You're not gonna convince them. Right. It's it's like well, also with the with the 4,700,000,000,000.0
[01:18:19] Unknown:
Trillion. With a t, trillion dollars that the US Treasury has sent out with no traceable marker on it. So we have no idea where that $4,700,000,000,000 went. Hey, to our four viewers on Rumble right now, Thank you for watching. We appreciate that. We really do. So if you wouldn't mind, just drop a comment down below. Let us know what you think about this. Also, you know, you can let us know in the, in the chat. We would love to hear from you guys, and get your take on this whole thing. What do you think about these disappearing funds? What do you think about the $22,000,000,000 that are have disappeared? What do you think about the 4,700,000,000,000.0 of your dollars that have somehow vanished from the, treasury department, And, now they're talking about the possibility of, of giving back $5,000 to the American people as a dividend on their things, and the left is up it is freaking out. We don't have that money to give away. Why do we well, you gave away $4,700,000,000,000.
[01:19:24] Unknown:
Why all of a sudden, you don't have money to give away. Right? Well, one of the mouthpieces on the left today, well, who's gonna pay for this? And the the Trump, secretary goes, we did. Yeah. We paid, p a I d. We already paid for it. So we're just getting a refund. Who's gonna pay for it? That's that's their beck and call. Who's gonna pay for this? Someone else has to pay for this, but we already paid for it. It's just called a refund. Yeah. You know, it's we're not getting a percentage back, probably what we paid out. So they just don't like I said, liberal people the liberal family members I have and other people, it goes like this. They are not happy if you're happy.
[01:20:04] Unknown:
I wanna play something else to you from, from Stephen Miller. Earlier today, they had a press conference, talking about the thirty days the first thirty days of the Trump administration, and, they outlined all of the accomplishments of the, Trump administration in the first thirty days, and I would really like I I wanna play this for you. Not gonna play the whole thing. It's quite long, but Today, our one month celebration
[01:20:32] Unknown:
of the most historic opening to a presidency in American history. No president comes close to what Donald Trump has achieved over just the last thirty days. He has packed eight years of transformative action restoring this nation, restoring our laws, restoring fairness, restoring economic opportunity, restoring national security in just one month. No one in this country's ever seen anything like it. And when you look at the consequentiality and the significance and the transformative nature of the actions he's taking, it truly defies description. For example, in just one area, this nation has been plagued and crippled by illegal discrimination, diversity, equity, and inclusion policies. It strangled our economy. It has undermined public safety. It has made every aspect of life more difficult, more painful, and less safe.
He has ended all DEI across the federal government. He has terminated all federal workers involved in promulgating these unlawful policies. He has ended diversity, equity, and inclusion in all federal contracting. He has restored merit as the cornerstone of all federal policy, restored the full, fair, impartial enforcement of our federal civil rights laws for the first time in generations. And he has cracked down on individuals across this government and nonprofits who have engaged in illegal racial discrimination against the American people. This includes making clear to every educational institution in this country that ending diversity, equity, and inclusion, ending unlawful race discrimination is a precondition of receiving federal funds.
He has also saved women's sports by ending the participation of men in women's sports. He has ended radical gender ideology across the entire federal government, and he's pressured the private sector to also end and combat radical gender ideology. He's reestablished the scientific and biological truth that there are only two sexes in this country, male and female, that those are biologically based determinations. They are not based and can never be based on gender identity. That includes rooting out of the Department of Defense, all DEI policies, all critical race theory, all gender madness, and once again having a military that is focused solely and exclusively on readiness, preparedness, and lethality.
As I'm sure No.
[01:23:02] Unknown:
Now we could we could just, you know, let the co clip play. It's about an eight minute clip. Right. But, here in this, this overlay three, if you can see that, it's, prior to the, press conference, Miller handed out a list of accomplishments, and it was nine pages long in thirty days. Nine pages of accomplishments. It's up there on your screen if you could see it. And it so it this is not an administration that's playing games. This is the administration that's out to get the job done. And, like like the document states, America is back, and President Trump is just getting started.
[01:23:44] Unknown:
I like I have a comment here Please. On what Miller. He said, this isn't a place of unelected career bureaucrats. The Democrats are saying a lot about Musk. He wasn't elected. Well, the guys I'm getting my money from, lobbyists, etcetera, they weren't elected either. That's what scares them because Musk isn't taking a dime. And That's right. And he's he's unelected. I'm doing the quote sign. Well, this is what it says. You know? He's he's unelected career bureaucrats have run their own agendas.
[01:24:11] Unknown:
There you go. That's right. That's the core of the Democratic party, what they've gotten. And, yes, Ryan knows too. Right. And and going along with that theme Yep. You know, this is the Democratic party. And the resistance that president Trump is getting through things is the reason why Democrats are finding themselves with the lowest approval rates they've ever ever had. Eight out of 10 Americans think congressional Democrats are worthless putzes.
[01:24:38] Unknown:
Right. And now some Republicans too Yeah. That are on on on the flip side. It's like I said, you know, some of the terms in the first term, deep swamp. What was the the deep swamp? What was the swamp? We're really starting to see it now. What it was? We he I don't you know, Trump didn't have the the the backing and the loyalty, but now he is. It's like these guys are draining the swamp as as much as they can. It's not gonna be ever done. It not in I we as you were saying in two years because there's election coming up and the senate and the house can always change. But it's like, this is what some of those terms we use in the first Trump administration, the deep swamp. It's looking clearer. It is. Even though a swamp's monkey, but what Trump has done is, categorized so many things is that this is what I was elected for. And I know you guys aren't gonna like that because it's the will of the people. That's right. Not the will of you schmoes. So and that's where the that's where the rub is with them.
[01:25:32] Unknown:
You're absolutely right. Mhmm. And, you know, and of course keeping in line with with Elon Musk. I don't I don't know if people are getting Doge, fatigue with with everything we're talking about. If it's bugging you or anything like that, you want us to change topics, move on to something else, just drop a comment. I got about 5,000 reasons I'm still interested in. Let us know. But, but just I I had like, I have a a a a group of of, of headlines here that I just wanna kinda run through with you really quickly about, about Doge, specific specifically Doge. So, the the latest theme for the week from the left is Doge is not an official government agency or a government department.
People are still on this about Doge not being a legitimate government office. Doge was started by? Barack Obama. That's right. That's right. Barack Obama, Joe Biden, they they did that with the government accountability office. I think the GAO was involved with it, and it it was, part of the, the recovery program that they were doing back in in in the day, and, which, of course, added just more debt to, The United States. But, but but yeah. I mean I mean, they still are they're they're harping on this thing that Doge isn't isn't a, a legitimate government agency or a legitimate government office.
And, just as an example of that, you know, the, you know, the like like okay. Well, let me back that up just a little bit. It's it's it's becoming harder and harder for for for the opposition to Doge to come up with objections that'll work anymore. Right. Alright? Or or at least work people up into, like, a like a like a tizzy over what the teams the Doge teams are actually doing. For example, you had you had the, the the acting head of Social Security step down after after, she butt heads with the Doge team and, and a request for access. Right? It was, I think was it was it was taxpayer information. Yep. That, she didn't really wanna give up.
I think what was her name? Do you remember her name? I think it was Michelle something or other? Michelle King, I think it was. Yes. I think it was. She she just abruptly resigned from her, from her role as the acting director of Social Security over that. And, she did that after Elon Musk's team discovered that some you ready for this one? K. 20,000,000 dead social social security recipients were still receiving benefits. 20,000,000. Okay. With an m. Million. Okay. And here's the here's another interesting little tidbit on the whole thing. A few of them, I don't even know how to say it without laughing.
We're we're almost 200 years old.
[01:28:53] Unknown:
200 years old. Relatives of Count Dracula.
[01:28:57] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What what was the line from from Dracula? Vampires do exist. Do you
[01:29:07] Unknown:
know? They still do here at least in the Democratic party. Two hundred years old.
[01:29:14] Unknown:
And I think we we posted a graphic, last week. I I I took it out of the system already. I shouldn't have. But, there were a few of them that were 350 years old.
[01:29:26] Unknown:
And they probably didn't need it to at the federal cafeteria, which has been empty for years under Biden's source. I just had to throw it in, Joe. Federal department cafeteria empty for years under Biden. That's some pretty bad food. Yeah. You think? Okay. You know, it's just nuts. It's
[01:29:45] Unknown:
check check check out this check out this dope on on, MSLSD.
[01:29:49] Unknown:
Okay. There was an, inspector general audit last year that showed over an eight year period, the Social Security Administration made almost 72,000,000, billion dollars in improper payments, a little less than 1% of payments in that time period. Now the report also says that most of these improper payments were overpayments, not payments to deceased people or or people who didn't qualify to receive these payments. At the same time, Jose, this, effort by Doge is to to go through this agency like every other and try to weed out, waste and fraud.
[01:30:23] Unknown:
Yeah. I mean, and also 72,000,000,000, and that's without a comprehensive, search. I mean, that's that's that's significant.
[01:30:33] Unknown:
So $70.71 point something billion, 70 2 billion is how we rounded it up. Okay? And yet they're still kicking, they're still screaming, they're all calling out Doge team security clearances, billionaires rummaging through your personal information.
[01:30:51] Unknown:
This is a good one. This is, like, right hot off the press. They got Elon Musk running across stage with a chainsaw. Yeah. I saw that. That was great.
[01:31:00] Unknown:
That was Timber, baby. That was great.
[01:31:05] Unknown:
It's a CPAC stage. Yes. Yes. He doesn't hold back. Like I said, he's got that stiffly, stiff person approach to science and technology. And then he's like, a stand up comic. Just like that. I mean, with props and all, but he's a pretty funny guy too. Yeah. I wanna show you that this is a this is a screen grab from from, from Twitter or x. This is,
[01:31:27] Unknown:
the the the account's name is, doctor strange sweet or how I learned to something. I I didn't open up the whole thing. But he says, my refund was delayed last year because someone filed taxes with my wife's social security number. So let let's see if this comes up, if this is the right one. I hope it's the right one. The thing is so small on the screen here, I can't see it. But he says my refund was delayed last year because my because someone filed taxes with my wife's Social Security number. K. Yeah. I know. That's not it. Alright. That's wonderful.
All that time wasted. Is that it? I can't tell. I'm looking at a bigger monitor so I can see. No. Man, I ruined my joke. Dang it. Alright. So my refund was delayed last year because someone filed taxes with my wife's social security number, something that you said doesn't happen. I'll take my chances with Elon. And he wrote that in response to Ron Wyden who said, new. My office is hearing that Doge is now at the IRS, which means Musk's henchmen are in position to dig through a trove of data about every taxpayer in America. And if your refund is delayed, they could be they could very well be the reason.
[01:32:34] Unknown:
Alright. Yeah. I I I I wrote Elon Musk recently. I hope I get an answer, but one of them was, he should get some prospecting tools too. Some more just to throw it, you know, chainsaw, prospecting, digging away. You know, he's a miner because he said so many federal retirees like myself are their their paperwork is still, like you said, down a mineshaft. Mhmm. And it's true. So
[01:32:57] Unknown:
Yeah. Let's see. Continuing on with, Doge stuff. This is from, Modernity News. This is good stuff, actually. This is something that we that we like to hear. President Trump suggested on Wednesday that Doge dividends, could be handed out to taxpayers, effectively giving back money that is saved from eliminating nonsense spending. Trump described it as a new concept where we give 20% of the Doge savings to American citizens, and 20% goes to, paying back, where was I? Paying back paying down debt. Alright. Let's clip, DogeOne.
[01:33:39] Unknown:
Let's see. And then saving taxpayers billions, a? And there's even, under consideration a new concept where we give 20% of the Doge savings to American citizens and 20% goes to paying down debt because the numbers are incredible, Elon. So many billions of dollars billions, hundreds of billions and we're thinking about giving 20% back to the American citizens and, 20% down to pay back debt and pay down debt, which is If you look at value, if it were a real estate balance sheet, the debt is tiny, but we still we still want to pay it down. It doesn't matter. We don't look at it as a piece of real estate. It's America. We're gonna get it down through intelligence, hard work, and as Elon said, a word called caring. You have to you have to care.
By doing this, Americans will tell us where there is waste. They'll be reporting it themselves. They participate in the process of saving money. So many of the men and women in this room, as an example, they paid tremendous amounts of taxes. And here are just a few examples of where your money was going before I came along. These are just some of the just taken at random. Oh, there are much worse examples than this. I was just looking at them before the speech, and I can tell you they were much worse. And there are some that are horrible, but I don't wanna really say them because they're very, very, embarrassing to people. Very, very embarrassing.
[01:35:12] Unknown:
Wow. That's neat. And Trump didn't even wanna say it. No. That that that and that's the thing. That's that's that's the other thing about it too. It is so bad. Even Trump. Yeah. Even Trump who has no problem saying whatever's on his mind won't say it.
[01:35:28] Unknown:
I'm just coming out of the bathroom, and a guy smiled himself. You know what I mean? He's like, nothing's off limits. I can't say. Hey, brother. I I got this notification,
[01:35:36] Unknown:
just a couple minutes ago, from Truth Social. Again, like I said, Truth Social is if you want to know exactly what's going on in the Trump administration, Truth Social is the place to go first because I got it from Truth Social. I have still not gotten it anywhere else. Yeah. Alright. It says breaking federal judge allows Trump administration's mass layoffs to proceed. And another Excellent. Victory. That's fantastic, fantastic news. Trimming down and cutting down the federal workforce, saving more money for the American people. Without the bluster.
Hey. Let's without the bluster. Let's see. Colin Ruggs said, in reply to let's see. Alex Finn first said, genius makes a % sense. What argument, are the delusional people going to have now against Doge? And Colin Rugg is a great account to follow, by the way, on x, Colin Rugg, at Colin Rugg. Yeah, this may be one of the best ideas this admin has come up with. Doge approval rating would skyrocket. Dems would look horrible. If they keep fighting Doge, which wants to give Americans their money back, it would stimulate the economy. And then, Joe Biden checked in and had this to say, I proposed giving 90% to pay down the debt and giving 10% to the big guy.
So if you know, you know. Trump further went on and said that, in just a month, Are you ready for this one? Mhmm. In just a month, should I tell you or should I let let the boss tell
[01:37:08] Unknown:
you? I'll let the boss tell you. In
[01:37:11] Unknown:
less than a single month, the Department of Government Efficiency has already saved over 55 this is just a short period of time, $55,000,000,000. And we're just getting started. That's nothing compared to the numbers that you're talking about. Right? We're ending trillions of dollars in waste, and it'll mean much lower inflation, lower interest rates, lower payments on mortgages, credit cards, car loans, and much higher stock markets. I think the stock market's gonna be great. In other words, we will rapidly grow our economy by dramatically shrinking the federal government, and we have to do it.
[01:37:53] Unknown:
So, so that that's great. $55,000,000,000. With a b. With a b.
[01:38:02] Unknown:
You know? And and the point is, like you said, credit card, debt. Credit card payments, house payments,
[01:38:08] Unknown:
car payments. Oh, we're gonna come we're gonna come to credit cards, brother. Yeah. Oh. We're gonna come to because did you know that there are federal credit cards out there with these federal employees that that there are over 4,000,000 transactions that they can't account for? That's only 4,000,000? Only 4,000,000. But we'll get to that in a minute because this is important too. Howard Lutnick, who is the, the newly appointed, US Secretary Of Commerce Mhmm. Said on Wednesday that Trump plans to dismantle the Internal Revenue Service I love it. As a step toward tax reduction. His goal is to ready for this one? Yeah. His goal is to abolish the Internal Revenue Service and let all the outsiders pay. I mean, this is someone who's focused on America. Let's drive down our waste, foreign abuse. Let's, let let let's listen to to Howard here himself. And I'm telling you, you watch it, we're gonna do it. If you get savings from these DOGE cuts,
[01:39:06] Unknown:
are you gonna give any of this back to the American people? We keep hearing about these DOGE dividends.
[01:39:13] Unknown:
Well, think about it. Donald Trump announces the external revenue service, and his goal is very simple, to abolish his goal is to abolish the internal revenue service and let all the outsiders pay. I mean, this is someone who is focused on America. Let's drive down all these foreign abuse. I'll give you an example. Cruz And I'm telling you, if you watch it, we're gonna do it. If you get savings from these doge cuts,
[01:39:40] Unknown:
are you gonna give any of this back to the American people? We keep hearing about these DOGE dividends.
[01:39:47] Unknown:
Well, think about it. Donald Trump announces the external revenue service, and his goal is very simple, to abolish his goal is to abolish the internal revenue service and let all the outsiders pay. I mean, this is someone who is focused on America. Let's drive down our waste, fraud, and abuse. I'll give you an example. Cruise ships. You ever see a cruise ship with an American flag on the back? They have flags of, like, Liberia or Panama. None of them pay taxes. None of them pay taxes. Every supertanker, none pays taxes. Alcohol, all foreign alcohol, no taxes.
This is gonna end under Donald Trump, and those taxes are gonna be paid, and Americans' tax rates are going to come down. That's what Donald Trump wants to do, balance our budget and cut our taxes. I mean, imagine a Democratic senator going against that. What planet are these peep
[01:40:47] Unknown:
I I you know, come on. How could you not love this? How could you not love this? And you see, that's that's also why I buy Kentucky bourbon. Yeah. I don't support foreign alcohol beverages. So, you know Foreign spirits. Yeah. Foreign spirits. No. No. No. No. We buy Kentucky bourbon. So Okay. Great stuff. I mean, this is this is just transformative stuff. This is great stuff. This is stuff that, again, like he said, how can any Democrat oppose this and not commit political suicide? Right. Seriously, how how is that possible? Alright. Here here here's another here's a here's a graphic I wanna show you. Right? US government has talking about credit cards.
Let's let's pop this baby up there. Alright? The US government currently has 4,600,000 active credit card accounts, which process 90,000,000 unique transactions for $40,000,000,000. There it is up on your screen. $40,000,000,000 in fiscal year two of, of '24. DOGE is working with the agencies to simplify the program and reduce administrative costs and will report back. That's your tax dollars. That's your money. If you kept records like this and you try to file your taxes, what do you think would happen to you? Oh, I know. Audit. Audit. Audit. Exactly.
Exactly. Oh, this is so sweet, brother. I love it. Oh my gosh. We are, an hour forty five minutes into the show. I am halfway through the articles. Alright. So we're gonna skip, what what Donald Trump had to say about Doge, about the payments. I wanna get to, really quickly oh, by the way, before I move on, Stacey Abrams, remember that fat cow from Georgia. From Georgia? Yeah. That fat cow. Oh my gosh. That did you know $2,000,000,000 of your money were earmarked for Stacey Abrams and and and her linked group? Did you know that? Not surprised, but $2,000,000,000. Do you see why? Do you understand why now the Democrats are so against Doge accessing these records. Do you understand why? Because your money, people, your money is going to these people to fill their pockets, and they're laughing their asses off at you.
You are struggling right now to pay your bills. Yours I I I was gonna say something. I'm not gonna say. But you you are struggling to pay your bills right now. You are struggling to put food on your table. It's gonna improve. No doubt it's gonna improve, but you're struggling for the last four years to pay your bills, to put food on your table, to to make ends meet. And these people are getting billions, possibly trillions of your money, and they stand there and point their finger at you and say, you're the problem, you're the racist, You're the homophobe.
You're the transphobe, the, Misogynist? The xenophobe, the misogynist, the right. Good. Yeah. Very good.
[01:45:05] Unknown:
I just learned what that word was. I thought it was people who gave me sausage. I'm serious. A misogynist? Well, I was gonna go get a a degree in that. I would. I didn't know what the word those words I'm learning at 64. So, you know, that was one of them, like, last year, massager. What's wrong with that? Why not? Someone who gives neck pain a relief. You know?
[01:45:30] Unknown:
Well, I don't think well, it could be more than just neck pain. My back neck. Yeah. Happy endings, you know. Damn. Need a graphic for that. We gotta come up with a graphic for happy endings.
[01:45:40] Unknown:
Maybe just a smiley face like flying up on, you know, one of those things. Yeah. Just a face like
[01:45:50] Unknown:
oh my god. There we go. Good evening today. We're done. Okay. We're done. Brother, I think, another one. Doge uncovers 90,000,000 shady transactions from 4,000,000 government credit cards. Mhmm. I'm not even gonna get into the articles or the audio or the clips, or I I'm just gonna read these headlines to you because they are disgusting. Well, all I'm thinking is that 1792
[01:46:12] Unknown:
or whatever you got there. Whatever. What year was that? Seventeen ninety two. Okay.
[01:46:17] Unknown:
New York City, congestion pricing axed as Trump's DOT pulls approval of hated tolls. Alright. This is to me, this is this is, you know, a personal at home thing, so I'm just gonna really quickly just say something about this. Fuck New York City. Alright? Fuck New York State. They deserve to fall off into the ocean, get get invaded by New Jersey, and taken over. I don't care. You pay in New York, you pay a New York state income tax. You pay a New York City income tax. You pay local taxes, federal taxes, Social Security. County? Yeah. I think I think so. I think in some place, yeah, you pay county taxes. And then you you're paying for your roads. You're paying tolls. The I used to live on Staten Island. Alright? Staten Island, there's only one way to connect Staten Island to the rest of the New York City, and that's the Verrazano Bridge. Okay. When I left New York eight years ago, ten years, almost ten years ago, it was almost $20 a day to cross the bridge. Alright?
Now now it's $22 a day to cross the bridge. And then once you get to Manhattan, they charge you $9 just to drive into Manhattan because of congestion pricing. Driving through certain neighborhoods, you can't drive through here, you can't drive through there, your car's getting scanned, you're getting a bill for $9, 10 dollars, 15 dollars, depending on the time of day, depending on the, on the day of the week. It's it you're already paying taxes for the roads, and yet you don't have access to public roads? When is the people of New York gonna wake the frig up and and and Okay. I choose not to say anything further.
[01:48:15] Unknown:
You rest your case.
[01:48:16] Unknown:
But yeah. You you see what I'm saying? Yeah. I do. It next. Same horrors that's happening in California. I know people in California, same thing. Yes. Okay. Oh, did brother, did you hear about this plane crash in in in in in, in Canada? Right. That the left is now trying to pin on Donald Trump for some way. I hate to say it, but to to News out there, him and Musk had a roped Two two. In front of that plane to to to the many when they come by. To the many idiots who are out there and don't realize that Canada is a is, at the moment anyway, a a another country who has their own version of the, FAA, and has their own protocols, their own procedures, and their own systems to deal with this stuff.
This is not Donald Trump's fault. No. Alright. But yet, of course, the insane left is trying to pin it on Donald Trump. So the story here is is that Delta Airlines, there there was a plane crash in in Toronto, and Delta Airlines, with a company called, Endeavor, which is which is a, another company that operates under the title under the under the the name of, of Delta, had a had a little accident where when the plane landed, it flipped over and was upside down. First of all, it's incredible that nobody died. Okay? It's that's absolutely incredible. And, and and I know, like I said, brother, I'm sorry. I know it's getting late. I know we got a we had a lot of ground to cover here, but just check this out. Okay? It's a it's a thirty second clip.

Let's see, really quickly, just gonna read some of these headlines. This one I think is hysterical. Establishment GOP senators say Trump is saving taxpayer money, quote, unquote, too fast and demand that he slow down.
What? What the fuck? Oh my goodness. This is red oh. What what reality do we live in, brother? What reality? You know, we Quiet zone. We're almost at two hours anyway, so just stick with it. Let's roll with it. Alright. How about this one? The, Jasmine Crockett, the the the the racist Democrat from Texas. Rep the racist rep representative from Texas. What about her? Jasmine Crockett says Trump's popularity is because Americans
[01:54:42] Unknown:
are not smart. A 53% approval rating. It's higher than it's ever been. 70% believe that he's fulfilling his promises, and 45% believe Democrats should be more moderate. Do what do you take away? I think there's a lot to make of those numbers. What's your takeaway from that? My takeaway is just like the election. We've gotta do better at education. People don't understand.
[01:55:03] Unknown:
But you will understand when those hospitals in rural America start closing down even more. You will understand when you don't have your Social Security. You will understand when your Medicaid, your Medicare goes away. You will understand None of which is gonna happen, by the way. Stable drum. Will be the drum.

Clap. Isn't loud and ridiculous, and maybe sleepy Joe is what we wanted because we could at least sleep at night. Yeah. She related to Davey? Amen. Oh, so my view. Oh, what a oh, yes. Yes. And the the beautiful part of this is is that not only is is she just totally freaking clueless. What was her first name? Jasmine. Jasmine. Jasmine.
[01:55:44] Unknown:
Jasmine Crocker. Queen of the lost frontier.
[01:55:51] Unknown:
Oh, that's awesome. That's awesome. In this game. But the you know you know what the best part of it is? It's a Texas thing too. Right? Yes. It is. Yes. It is. Yeah. Top of the Alamo. But the the best part of it is is that, you know, Tom Homan, who is known for not for not holding back at all, Called, Let it rip, Tom. He he called, AOC the dumbest congresswoman ever. Well,
[01:56:18] Unknown:
Home and verse Crockett. Here we go. It's frustrating because anytime you say something, it seems the left just completely twists it, runs with it. I wanna play you a, a a video, of Texas congresswoman Jasmine Crocker talking about your capabilities on MSNBC this weekend.
[01:56:36] Unknown:
But, again, we have someone who doesn't know what he's doing. And, you know, this idea of, oh, you know you're illegal, and then you go out and have a child. It's not quite that simple, especially when you have people that are doing things like seeking asylum and people that are saying, listen. I'm just trying to make sure that I can live a better life. And, you know, I'm not gonna be able to share him and his minions, and they say things like, you know what? We're only gonna get rid of the bad ones. Right? And so people sit there, and they're like, wait a minute. You're gonna come to my job where I'm working, and I may be paying into taxes or whatever, or my kids are at school. You know, I think that there's gonna be a rude awakening really on all sides.
[01:57:17] Unknown:
Doesn't know what he's doing. Tom, just to go through some of your background, a border patrol agent and investigator, a special agent, supervisor, special agent, assistant director of investigations. I mean, the list goes on and on. You are so beyond qualified. What's your response to that?
[01:57:32] Unknown:
Well, okay. I forgot more about this issue than you ever know. I mean, for god's sakes, I've been doing it thirty four years. But look, there has been a rude awakening. Every rude awakening is this was in November at the election. There was a rude awakening that American people are sick of an open border. American people are sick of illegal alien crime in this country. I mean, how many young women had to be raped and murdered and burned alive? How many m s, how much m s 13 and tried to inquire that had to be in our, major cities, community crimes against US citizens?
How many angel moms and dads do we have to have in this country that lost their children at the hands of somebody that wasn't supposed to be here, and they bury their children when I talk about family separation? And as far as, family family detention, the all of a sudden, the discussion goes from family detention to family separation. Family detention is the complete opposite of family separation. So, look, this I don't know who this lady is, but, apparently, she's not real smart. But, as you can see what you want, look, I I made this clear. I don't care what they say about Tom Homan because, you know, I I I've done his job for a long time. I think the president got a mandate in November. He called me to help me fix the border. And, with look. Under the Trump administration, we have the most secure border in my lifetime. We're gonna get that secure border again. Because secure border saves lives, and no one can argue that. Under the Biden administration, we got a historic number of aliens have died across this border, nearly 4,000. An historic number of Americans or corps of men died from fentanyl comes across our border. Their policies are killing Americans in record numbers. They're killing aliens in record numbers. President Trump is gonna secure this border and save lives, just not of Americans, but of aliens too. A secure border saves lives. That's exactly what we're gonna do to start on day one.
[01:59:10] Unknown:
Yep. Day one. Gotta love it. You gotta love it. Tom Homan, man. I love him. I really do. He just doesn't know very much. It's great. I love him. Oh, yes. Yes. Yes. And, you know, the thing is though is that the the the typical liberal cannot handle when they're slapped in the face like that. They can't. Reality. Yeah. Reality. Yeah. Exactly. Speaking of more reality, more than 6,000 IRS workers to be laid off before the end of the week.

Folks, you can't make this stuff up. Well, obviously, you can't. CNN just did, but, you know. Oh my god. Alright. And keeping in line with what we normally do on the show, we, you know, we talk about national nonsense, and then we bring up something about Texas, you know, local issues. And, we'll we'll talk about this a little bit more tomorrow, but I'm gonna throw the headline out to you so you guys can do some research on your own there. But Texas senate, has the Texas state senate has been weighing, the possibility of creating strategic Bitcoin reserve, which is huge.
Huge. And I say huge because in in relation to Texas. You guys know that I am a member of the Texas Nationalist Movement. You guys know that I, I support, Texas, leaving The United States and standing among the nations of the world, on its own. I believe that it's going to happen. It's inevitable. It's that it's gonna happen, and, I I hope that it's gonna happen in my lifetime, and in the meantime I'm gonna do everything that I can to help that, and one of the things that I've done is become a member of the Texas Nationalist Movement, and I'll tell you a little more more about that in a moment. But the significance of this, Texas weighing the idea of creating a a a strategic Bitcoin reserve is huge because that means that Texas is that close to establishing its own currency.
And when you are moving that close to establishing your own currency, that means that the ball is in motion or the wheel is in motion for Texas to leave the American Union and take its place among the free and independent states of the world, And that is huge. I don't know if you can see the flag behind me. Texas Independence. Folks, I am the deputy county coordinator from Maverick County for the Texas Nationals Movement. This is something that's very, very close to my heart. And if you want to get involved with shaping the future of a free and independent Texas, head on over to our website, joerociello.com/tandm.

Texas voluntarily joined the American Union, and Texas can leave the American Union. And don't think for a moment that Texas is the only state that has these these movements in place. There are 25 states across this union, that's half of the country, that have a secession movement working its way through the legislative process. And it's not just red states like Texas, it's blue states as well.
California has CalExit. New Hampshire has a secession movement. Vermont has a new has a secession movement. Even, counties in New York have secession movements in place where they wanna join Canada, which is stupid because Canada's become the replacement state for Texas when Texas leaves. And I think, Wayne, you were telling me that, parts of Oregon wanna secede and and join Idaho, was it? The East Side wants to split up. Yeah. Go to Idaho. Yeah. Secession is not an evil thing. Secession is not something that's that's, that that's a criminal thing. Secession is a natural progression. When a state or when or when the people of a state feel like they're being abused by the general government, the natural reaction is, hey. We can do it better.
We're gonna do it better, and we're gonna leave. Remember, the American Union was founded on secession. Right. The American states, the 13 individual sovereign countries left Great Britain and stood on their own. The Treaty of France that declared that the American Revolution was over. It was not it wasn't a a a a a treaty that was made with The United States Of America as a nation. The Treaty of France was made between 13 individual countries or states. Remember that. States that seceded from Great Britain. That term state is used very, very frequently in in in national in in international politics. You have the state of Israel, the state of North Korea, the state of this, the state of that. State just simply means a country.
The federal government does not own any state. Each state is a sovereign, independent nation state that voluntarily joined a union of states for two explicit purposes. Just two. Commerce, mutual defense. That's it. We have come a long way from that. Texas is going to reassert itself among the free and independent nations of the world. You can be a part of that. You can be a part of that. Our website, joeruciello.com/tandm, or go to texitnow.org. And again, register your support, become a member, make a donation. Wayne?

Yes, sir. It's, like I said, even Washington was talking about Eastern Washington. You're talking about two states. They almost look like one if you took the lines away. Eastern Oregon, Eastern Washington, Agriculture, Farming, very long history. Pioneered on the pioneer trails. Go through both of those. And the the West Side, it's as about as blue liberal, wackadoo crazy as anywheres else. I mean and so the, we at our election, the, the presidential election, I I I don't know what the exact number it is. This is goes to forty forty counties. Let me see. Six blue.
Thirty thirty four red. And we got smoked in the governor's race. Every big governor, attorney general, it they weren't even close. So there's, like, those five or six counties have, like, six or 7,000,000 people. So the East Side's going, we have no voice. We really don't. We elect our local people, but state wise, we're not gonna ever see a a Republican governor. Plus, they do not have voter ID. Mhmm. Both of those two states. And the people in the West in the East Side, which I did live in the East Side, People just, like, are feeling the same thing now with Trump. It's like, Trump help. Come out here. You know? Where where's our Trump at?
Where's our Trump at Washington and Oregon? And so we're pretty much, you know, handcuffed with that. And only so much the federal government could do it that way too, but, people get tired. They were use the word fatigue a lot, and I guess everything fatigue, just, being overrun by everything. Like I was saying, my property taxes went up through the roof on an empty piece of property. Just they they're taxing the grasshoppers out there. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. $700. You know? And like I said, and they they could give me no reason. And they're not gonna be able to? No. It's like, They're not gonna be able to. Right. Right. You know, so and the the governor we got, he's I just word around on the street is he's working in a new gun bill.
[02:11:21] Unknown:

That's the capital city. I've gone with, you know, gun owners and some Democrats too. There's some guys that are old school Democrats that their dads are loggers and what have you. It's like grandpa would never follow this stuff. And so, yeah, magazines. I mean, we might as well go back to muskets. Flintlock. That's pretty much what they want. The governor does. Yeah.
