In this episode, Joe delves into various topics, including the controversy surrounding the use of the Signal app by the Trump administration, the arrest of MS-13 leaders, and the impact of illegal immigration on local communities. He highlights the efforts of the Department of Health and Human Services under RFK Jr. to streamline operations and improve public health. The episode also covers the Trump administration's initiatives to protect women's sports and the dissolution of USAID. Joe concludes with a critical view of the Democratic Party's stance on abortion and celebrates the positive direction of the country under Trump's leadership.
Join Joe for an unfiltered dive into the eclectic, the profound, and sometimes the absurd, where no topic is off-limits and political correctness takes a back seat.

And, you know, trying to to to heal up from this, this mistake, this little problem I have with my foot. And, man, it hurts. It hurts something fierce, especially right now for whatever reason. Probably because I went back to the regular job today, and I was on my feet a lot. So, that's that could be it. And then, got a crazy night ahead too. Once we finish the show here, I gotta I gotta clean up the studio really quick and then gotta head right back out.

It's time for us to say goodbye to the folks that are on, Twitch, x, and YouTube. Hopefully, we'll see you over on the rumble side. If not, have a great weekend, and we'll talk to you, on the flip side when we get back. Alright. Talk to you later. Alright. So, here we are. Now I know last week, excuse me. Now I know last week, we said that, or at least I said earlier this week that we weren't really gonna talk too much about, Signal Gate anymore. I personally believe it's a non issue. I don't I don't think that, the administration really did anything wrong by using a, a a a a, an approved app to have communication between the, top end of the administration, the, the the department heads, that were involved in this, this strike against the, the Houthis.
I don't think there was any problem with that, considering that, again, it was an approved app to use. I think the bigger question is, of course, is who let the, who let the, the journalist in, Jeffrey Goldberg? And, how come nobody's questioning Jeffrey Goldberg as to why he, would publish such, classified information as they say. It's classified. It's not classified in any way. Sensitive, yes, but not classified. There is no specific information in in in these messages. We showed you them, so you know what they are. You've seen them. It really is a non issue, and, it it's really getting tiring. And, you know, President Trump is standing behind his team. He is, especially standing behind Pete Hegseth, who is seems to be under under, under fire for this, in an unbelievable, unbelievable fashion. As a matter of fact, earlier today, the, c I CIA director, John Ratcliffe, kinda got into an exchange with, with, Democrat, congressman, Gomez, at a hearing, after, congressman Gomez tried to imply that, that, Pete Hegseth was drunk or possibly drunk while, transmitting the information across the signal app, and then making, another reference to, him being at a podium holding a drink in his hand. But, no, we don't know what the drink was. It could've been anything.
So, so today, this, that this this, California Democrat, who is really just just a slimy, just snivelly, whiny, Democrat, you know, tried to impugn the the reputation of, Pete Hegseth. And by and and doing that by, by reviving the old, from the, from from his, his confirmation hearings about his drinking on the job, which, of course, was also not true. So, this is, it's about a minute and a half clip, and, this is congressman Gomez first questioning Tulsi Gabbard and then going on to, mister Ratcliffe.
[00:17:10] Unknown:
To your knowledge, do you know whether Pete Hegseth had been drinking, before he leaked classified information?
[00:17:16] Unknown:
No. Again, it was not classified information. Knowledge of secretary Hegseth's personal habits.
[00:17:22] Unknown:
Director Radcliffe, same
[00:17:27] Unknown:
question. Yes or no? You know, no. I'm gonna answer that. I I think that's an offensive line of questioning. The answer is no. I I find it interesting that you wanna no. No. I'm gonna answer you asked me a question. You wanna answer? No. Listen. I want to focus on the good work that the CIA is doing, that the intelligence community Director, I want to talk about my time. Director, I reclaim my time. Here
[00:17:50] Unknown:
I have huge respect for the CIA, huge respect for our men and women in uniform, but this was a question that's on the top of minds of every American. Right? He stood in front of a podium in, Europe holding a drink. So, of course, we wanna know if his, performance is compromised. If you or people were asking if the, general Austin was compromised because of a a heart issue
[00:18:20] Unknown:
Was his performance compromised because of a successful strike? Mister I bring my, you wanna know my time. You wanna talk about accepting responsibility? Do you think you would extend responsibility for a successful strike to make Americans safer? I really am.
[00:18:37] Unknown:
So over and over and over again, he he, this this whiny piece of crap Democrat, Jim Gonzalez, Gomez, just, I reclaim my time. I reclaim my time. I reclaim my time. So a couple of things on that. First of all, again, it wasn't classified information in the signal chat. Alright. Not classified information. How many times do we have to say it? Not classified. Alright. If it was classified, then, their darling, mister Goldberg would be in a lot of trouble for publishing that so supposed alleged classified information. Alright? And, the the the net the other takeaway is is that it was it it was an absolutely successful, campaign. The strikes were successful.
Whether or not he was drinking, and thirdly, it was not. This is not an issue that's on the minds of every single American. I don't I don't know of anyone, in my circle anyway, that that is concerned about this. Beyond the fact that somebody allowed Jeffrey Goldberg into the, signal chat. And again, again, an authorized secure app, encrypted app. Again, authorize, I'm saying it repeatedly. I know I'm repeating myself. I am saying it for a reason, an authorized app. What's so hard to understand about that? It's this they're making this all political. They want Pete Hegseth's head on a platter. They want him gone.
For whatever reason, they want him gone. Now, President Trump is standing behind, Pete Hegseth. He's standing behind his, his, his his team, rightly so. Nobody should be fired for this. There's no there this is this is a non issue. So with that non issue being taken care of, we are gonna move on to something that's, I think, much more important. Okay? And what I think is more important than all of this is these rogue judges, these rogue activist judges that are getting in the way of this administration fulfilling its article two responsibilities. I think that's a bigger concern right now than than this non issue with a, with a a chat app.
If you wanna go back to that for even just a second, we can we can always say this, alright? A mistake was made, the administration acknowledges that mistake, they are working on uncovering how it happened, and they are taking steps to make sure it doesn't happen again. That should be enough to move on. Anyway, again, the bigger problem is these rogue judges, these rogue activist judges that are going out of their way to get in the way of this administration, and keeping this administration from performing its constitutional duties and protecting and defending The United States.
Now yesterday, Mike Johnson made a made a a a a a fantastic argument. Now, I don't know if you're aware of this or not, trying to form my words. I don't know if you're aware of this or not, but The United States Constitution only establishes specifically the Supreme Court of the United States. That's what it specifically sets up, and that's it, as far as courts go. For the lower courts, that is left up to Congress, and that is something that, you know, a lot of people I don't think really realize, and if they do, they they tend to try to ignore it. Now, speaker Johnson, Speaker Johnson said yesterday that and he pointed out yesterday that the congress has the authority over the federal courts, and congress congress can eliminate the federal courts.
They can eliminate an entire district court. And I think that's something that needs to be done. Speaker Johnson said we do have power over funding over the courts and all of these other things, but desperate time times call for desperate measures, and Congress is going to act. Here's act. Here's Mike Johnson.
[00:24:47] Unknown:
We can eliminate an entire district court. We we have our funding over the courts and all these other things. But, desperate times call for desperate measures, and Congress is going to act. So stay tuned for that.
[00:24:57] Unknown:
Now the Daily Mail said that, this is a veiled reminder, if not a threat, that Congress has their eyes on district judges that that have issued injunctions and rulings against Trump's policy. And they have, which is not which is not an untrue statement. District judges have interfered with the executive branch in performing their duties under article two of the US constitution. They have gotten in the way of of, of the executive branch regarding Doge, spending, hiring, the hiring of executive branch employees, immigration, deportation, international policy.
And the congress has rightly so begun impeachment, procedures against some of these judges, like the the the Washington judge who ordered the administration to turn airplanes deporting criminal illegals around in mid air, and return those terror suspects to The United States, even demanding the White House national security details to which he is not authorized to even access. And we're talking about James Boasberg, who was a who was a far left activist judge, who actually demanded harsher penalties for the for the j six protesters than he does for criminal illegal aliens, criminal illegal gang members.
Remember, article three of the US Constitution assigns Congress the authority to ordain and establish courts beneath the Supreme Court. And, Mike and, Speaker Johnson has has has been very, very clear on that, that they're gonna be acting on this coming up in the next week, and I am I'm looking forward to seeing what exactly they're gonna do. I know that, Jim Jordan representative Jordan has, who's, who's the house judiciary chair And is responsible for overseeing federal law enforcement in the cost, and the court system, told, Just the News, yesterday that, he's planning to address reforms to the judicial system in three ways.
Passing legislation to limit nationwide injunctions, which is a no brainer. You know, a district court in in, in in in, in in Rhode Island should not be able to affect, first of all, the executive branch and and, a nationwide, policy. So, yeah, so they'll be looking at legislation. They'll be looking at, they'll be looking at, funding. And I forgot what the third ish I forgot what the third one is, but but those two main things, legislatively to to to to, to limit nationwide injunctions, and cut funding to these district courts. And I think it's about time.
Alright. Let's move on to some, Doge stuff because, we we have not really talked too much about Doge, the last couple of days. I've been kinda busy with other stuff, like signal gate. Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. So, let's see. The postmillennial, Trump demands Doge claw back $2,000,000,000 given to Stacey Abrams environmental fund, before he took office. So Donald Trump said said this in a in a, in in a truth message. Whatever happened to the $8,000,000 given by our government to radical left political magazine or whatever you would call it, owned by wealthy guys, this money should be taken back by Doge ASAP.
Also, is is Stacey Abrams gonna give back the $2,000,000,000 they funneled into her environmental fund just prior to my assuming office? She went from from $100 in donations to 2,000,000,000 in just one day. Not bad. Get back the money. Just think about that. Her her organization had $100 in donations, and then right before the president was inaugurated, right before he took office, somehow, someway, 2,000,000,000 of your tax dollars were funneled into her her, her her little community coalition, which was called, Abrams wrote in a 02/2023 post. Thrilled to be part of the rewiring America and the power forward communities coalition.
This is how we expand access to clean energy by prioritizing housing, equity, and resilience. We're building a future where everyone, regardless of income or place can thrive.
[00:30:52] Unknown:
The,
[00:30:55] Unknown:
the power forward community was grant was, grant was one of the eight grants the EPA approved in April 2024 that totaled $20,000,000,000. In February, EPA administrator Lee Zeldin vowed to get this money back. Roughly 20,000,000,000 of your tax dollars were parked were parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden by the Biden EPA. This scheme was the first of its kind in EPA history and is purposely designed to to obligate all of the money in a rush job with reduced oversight, said administrator Lee Zeldin.
Twenty so 2,000,000,000 of your dollars were given to Stacey Abrams. Gateway Pundit reported that, let's see. Vegas police arrested a suspect in connection with a Tesla firebombing. See if I can get that going. And I'm sure we all remember seeing this repeatedly on the news. Vehicle set on fire fire in a in in a Tesla in, in a in a Tesla, dealership in Las Vegas. Well, they have finally found someone or arrested someone. Let's, pull that up right there. So Las Vegas Metro Police say, a search of Tesla firebombing suspect Paul Kim's social media shows him with potential communist and pro Palestine affiliations. They say that they have a DNA match and showed video of him, using a rifle to shoot out surveillance cameras before the attack.
According to police, Paul Kim used molotov cocktails and, firearms during his attack on the Tesla Center last Tuesday morning. Kim was charged with third degree arson, shooting a gun at an abandoned structure, vehicle destructing of of real property, and possession of flammable device. Paul Kim is expected in court this afternoon. There you go. And there's the video we just played for you. Now, also, you know, this is just a this is just a string of, of of attacks on on Tesla property. You have, you have this this gentleman. I think it's a gentleman.
The Texarkana Bandit intentionally ramming his little, scooter or its scooter. They're calling him the Texarkana Bandit. And then, of course, we're looking for, this this this person keying a Tesla model, Model Y. These people are sick, folks. There these people are sick. I'm telling you, liberalism is a mental illness, and it needs to be treated as such. A mental illness. They need to be they need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. They need to go to jail, and they need to go to jail for a while. For a long while.
Pam Bondi, R A G Pam Bondi, of course took to, Fox News, and, had this to say on the, on on these, Tesla vandals.
[00:34:54] Unknown:
It's happening, with this Las Vegas Tesla, criminal who he was arrested, and now federal charges have been filed against him. This was this was something that was needed given everything we're seeing happening to those dealerships and those cars across the country. That was remarkable
[00:35:11] Unknown:
police work, working with the state police, our FBI. They have been going nonstop on this case. This guy is in custody. Laura, he is facing five year minimum mandatory to twenty years in prison, and this was great police work. This guy thought he got away with it, so these people better look out, they better cut it out because we are coming after you and at my direction there will be no negotiating on these people. No plea deal. We are seeking twenty years in prison. They are setting off bombs. The huge fires. Look what you're seeing. Huge massive fires in residential neighborhoods. Someone's gonna get killed. Charging stations. Someone is gonna get killed. A citizen is gonna get killed. And and these people, we are not doing any plea negotiations on them. So they better cut it out. We have, some information about the groups that he belonged to, this individual. Let's watch.
[00:36:01] Unknown:
But a preliminary assessment of the suspect's social media activity indicates some very loose but self proclaimed ties to the Communist Party USA social media group, as well as social media groups called Revolutionary Communist International, Hidden Palestine, Palestine Action, and a variety of other social media groups.
[00:36:19] Unknown:
I mean, this is like a a cliche, a very left wing communist, socialist,
[00:36:24] Unknown:
Hamas. Right. We we are looking at, in all of these cases, every aspect, every we are not gonna leave a stone unturned.
[00:36:34] Unknown:
So the So, also, so just to go back here for a moment. So breaking, Charlie Kirk posted this. Las Vegas police have arrested 36 year old Paul Kim, which we already talked about. And then you have, all of these daily cases of vandalism that that people are catching here. The Tesla dash cam, right here. Tesla vandalized, help identify the sus the suspect. I don't think it
[00:37:09] Unknown:
switched over.
[00:37:22] Unknown:
Okay. Then you have here, I don't know if this is a well, to me, it looks like a a man. So, Shaden Hezner, and if I'm not mistaken, this person was was identified and found. Yes. Has been arrested and cited for criminal tampering. And then you have this this person here was caught, doing $7,000 in damages by vandalizing three different Teslas that were all parked in the same parking lot. Another gentleman here, another one here. I mean folks, this is disgusting. You know, these people, and then there's this one. She's been promoting violent against Tesla property in in Portland. Says destruction of property is perfectly vile form of protest. She clearly is deranged and a threat to people.
It's courtesy of World Net Daily. Folks, the the the these people are deranged. Like I've said many times and I keep on saying it, the left is the party of violence. The left is the party of hate. The left is the party of of, just of of just destruction. They are mentally ill. They need to be treated as harshly as possible. And I kinda grouped this together with, Tesla and Doge together, same, you know, because of Elon and, you know, the whole thing. Alright. So, Elon Musk is pushing back against Democrat Social Security, Musk pushes back against Democrat Social Security cuts fearmongering, says recipients will receive more money, not less. Speaking with Fox News on Thursday, Elon Musk and members of the Department of Government Efficiency explained their agenda for revamping the Social Security Administration.
While mainstream media and Democrat politicians claim the administration is going to cut Social Security, Musk and the Doge team clarified their goal to ensure citizens legitimately to ensure citizens legitimately get their benefits and to protect them from fraud, that they ex from fraud that they experience on a routine basis. Let's, let's go to let's go to six.
[00:40:07] Unknown:
We learned 40% of the phone calls that they get are from frauds.
[00:40:17] Unknown:
Try that again.
[00:40:20] Unknown:
We learned 40% of the phone calls that they get are from fraudster.
[00:40:26] Unknown:
Alright. So I got a little problem going on with that. So let's go to
[00:40:32] Unknown:
this. So call in. They say they claim to be, almost a retiree. Yes. Then they they and they convince the post the Social Security person on the phone to change the where the where the money's flowing. It it actually goes to some fraudster. This is happening all day every day. And and then and then somebody doesn't receive their Social Security. It's because,
[00:40:53] Unknown:
of of all of the fraud loopholes in the Social Security system. How do you reassure people that what you all are doing is not gonna affect their benefits?
[00:41:02] Unknown:
No. In fact, what what we're doing will help their benefits. Legitimate people, as a result of the work of Doge, will receive more Social Security, not less. Wanna emphasize that. As a result of the work of Doge, legitimate, recipients of Social Security will receive more money, not less money. Alright. I wanna emphasize that point. And and and and let the record show that I said this, and the it will be proven out to be true. Let's let's check back on this in the future. So it's Washington Post. The Social Security Administration website crashed four times in ten days this month because the servers were over
[00:41:37] Unknown:
Now can you imagine 4040% of the calls to the Social Security Administration come from fraudsters that are looking to to have payments rerouted to their accounts? Just just think about that. And and the way they do it is, and and we we heard him say is one of the key tricks that they do is they they will say that, they they use the fact that someone is marked alive, that social security number is marked alive with social security, and they get disability, unemployment insurance for that person, because the databases don't talk to each other. Let's go to, clip seven.
[00:42:25] Unknown:
Like, one one of the the key tricks that the pull is that they will use the fact that someone is marked as live and as as, sort of just that that social security number is marked as live in social security, and then, then get disability and unemployment insurance for a dead person. Because the databases don't talk to each other, all they got was, from Social Security is, like, is this person alive? Yes. They're not they're not alive. It's falsely marked person is falsely marked as alive in Social Security. But they didn't but but that that first a fraudster can now get unemployment and disability for from a dead person.
This is happening all the time at scale.
[00:43:04] Unknown:
Now, I don't care how the media wants to spin it. I don't care what they have I don't care how they try to say it. But when when someone who's who is receiving Social Security start to see that their checks are gonna get bigger, that their accounts gonna be more secure, they're not gonna have a choice but to admit that Doge is working for the benefit of the American people. Again, because right now all they're doing is saying that, you know, they're they're gonna be cutting your social security, you're not gonna be receiving grandma's gonna die because she's not gonna get her social security benefits, when none of that is true.
None of that is true. I'll say it a third time, none of that is true. Doge is working to improve the operation of Social Security. And other other offices too, but right now they're focusing on Social Security. Folks, we owe Elon Musk and his team a debt of thanks, a debt of gratitude. You know, this man is living with under the threat of violence against himself, against his family. He doesn't have to do this. He's one of the richest men in the world. He doesn't need to be doing this. He's not he's not getting paid for this. The money that he's saving the the, the American taxpayers is not going to his pocket, it's going back into the US Treasury. It's going to pay the debt, and hopefully they're gonna be issuing out these refund checks.
This is working for the American people. This is this is what we voted for. This is what I voted for. This is what I wanna see. I wanna see Doge do this. I wanna see Doge secure. You know how many people have paid into the social security system and get not even a fraction of what they paid into it because of fraud, waste, and abuse? More fraud. So this is great. This is fantastic stuff. This is this this is this is something we should be very happy about, and I find it very interesting how the left and the mainstream media are trying to spin this as it's a bad thing.
Don't you want to find the fraud, waste, and abuse? I mean, ten, eleven years ago, under the Obama administration, that was a main talking point to to root out fraud, waste, and abuse. You heard Schumer talking about it, Pelosi talking about it, Obama himself was talking about it. As a matter of fact, Obama appointed Joe Biden to oversee the the investigation into fraud, waste, and abuse. And I would not be surprised, and I can't, you know, I I can't prove this, but knowing what we know right now about Joe Biden and and and the the and the nefarious things that he'd been doing, he probably took advantage of the situation to to to enrich himself and his family through that.
Can't prove it yet, but I'm sure that if they looked into that, they would. This is great stuff. This is great. What Doge is doing is is is great stuff. And again, we ought to be thanking Elon Musk for everything that he's been doing. Can't say it enough. The work that Doge is doing is legitimate, cost saving work. I appreciate it. I'm thankful for it. I mean is it directly affecting me right now? No, of course not, it's not, but you know something? In the long run it will. In the long run it will. In the long run I am hopeful that it will benefit my children, and my grandchildren.
This is great new this is folks, this is great stuff. I heard Owen Shroyer on War Room say you know, talk about something, about the same story, And, you know, he he said it right. This is revolutionary stuff. This is this is 1776 revolutionary stuff. We should be thankful for this. This is what if you listen, folks. If you voted for Donald Trump, he told you he was gonna do this. This is what he said. Even if you didn't vote for Donald Trump, he told you this is what he's going to do, and he's doing it. Promises made, promises kept. They're doing fantastic work.
Fantastic work. Let's see what else we got here. Alright. Moving away from the Doge stuff, momentarily here. This I I saw this, and and I I actually saw the clip, when it actually happened. I saw I watched it live, and I thought it was great, and I was like, oh, you know, I gotta I gotta try to find that, to to show you guys. But, I found it on Red State. They they ran a piece about this. The v the VA secretary, the veterans affairs secretary, Doug Collins. He sat down with, Caitlin Collins, at at CNN. And, you know, it's let me see where where can I get to? Let's see.
Let me go to the article. Hold on. Let me pull that up. So So I'm gonna show you this clip. It's about two minutes. But let me let me set the backup story here. So all the liberal media seems to wanna talk about is a signal story. They don't wanna talk about all the positive successes the Trump team is pulling off for the Democrat off or the Democrats, being in disarray with historically low approval. But I think the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Doug Collins, may have just killed that strategy big time during his appearance at CNN. Doug Collins was supposed to be on on to talk about veterans, but CNN's Caitlin Collins then asked him about his opinion on the signal story. He said he wasn't on the call, so he couldn't say anything more than his colleagues had already said, but, then that he was there to talk about veterans. But she kept pressing him on the signal story, and this happened.
[00:49:58] Unknown:
Do you believe that a mistake was made here though to have this conversation, to add a reporter, and to have it on an un unsupported, un you know, classified group setting?
[00:50:08] Unknown:
Caitlin, as I've just told you, I've just answered the question. I wasn't part of it. And, you know, I'm not gonna speculate more than what the president's already talked about and those who've been involved have talked about, but we'd love to talk about the veterans.
[00:50:18] Unknown:
Yeah. And I do have questions about the the veterans. But given what we saw with the the group chat and how this was used, you are a member of the cabinet. You obviously know these other members, several of them who were in there. Is this typical for the cabinet to have conversations over signal? Is this something that you use?
[00:50:35] Unknown:
Well, Caitlin, Cindy, you undoubtedly do not wanna talk about the VA. I have a question as VA secretary. His cabinet, I wanna ask you because I've been curious about this because my job is to take care of veterans. And I would like to know why CNN is hostile to veterans, especially one in Florida where you just had a $5,000,000 defamation suit, taking offense at a veteran who is trying to help people. In fact, one of your employees actually said we're gonna nail him. I have a question for you, Caitlin. Is that employee still employed? Are you really concerned about veterans? So if we don't wanna talk about veterans now, you wanna talk about everything else, I'd like to hear from CNN as the veteran cabinet secretary why CNN seems to have a problem, with veterans.
[00:51:15] Unknown:
Well, mister secretary, respectfully, my question was about whether or not you as a member of the cabinet to use this. Caitlin. And and respectfully, I'm conducting the investigation. And I do have a lot of questions for you on Veterans Affairs,
[00:51:26] Unknown:
but I don't think No, Caitlin. What you wanna do is you wanna talk about a subject. What you wanna do is cabinet. Have all the answers. And if you wanna continue this like this, that's fine. But there are VA employees who are working very hard. There are veterans who get their care from the VA, and they get their benefits from the VA. And it does mean no good to speculate on something that I've already asked and answered. So I've asked and answered your question. Why don't you answer mine? Are you still in is this person still employed who said they're gonna nail one of my veterans? Who you had to do a $5,000,000 award for the jury because of defamation, and then you settled the case. Answer my question.
[00:52:01] Unknown:
Respectfully, sir, I'm asking the questions here, and I have, no involvement in any of my referencing there. But if you don't wanna answer the question about whether or not
[00:52:10] Unknown:
That's the way you have to answer these people. That is an absolute master class that Doug Collins put on, and this is the way the entire Trump team should be to be, responding to the media on this particular subject. Masterclass. And, you know, again, there they are, the mainstream, spinning the fame that is an unsecured, unapproved, unclassified, application when we already know that that's not the case, that this is something that's approved for use on the government, networks, and there was no classified information in the in the, in the group chat, and there was nothing wrong with them using an app like this. I mean, I wouldn't, you know, I wouldn't wanna transmit sensitive information over. I mean, it was kinda sensitive information, but none of it was classified.
And, and and yet, just continuing the narrative of of going after, you know, the the participants in the group, even to somebody who was not involved in it. Secretary Collins is absolutely correct. He is responsible for the veterans. He had nothing to do with the chat. He wasn't in the chat. And so anything he would say on that would be pure speculation, and and he was absolutely right about it. But the great thing and the way he answered those questions, the great takeaway for the whole thing is I just wanna show you this, the look of defeat on her face.
That is a look of defeat, wiped out. That's the way you have to handle the media with, in in this administration. That's the way you have to do it. Now, I wanna go over here to, I wanna talk a little bit really quick about something else that I that I feel kind of I I feel kind of guilty about myself because, RFK Junior has been doing a fantastic job over at, at, at at the, Health and Human Services department. And, you know, you you don't really get to hear much about what he's been doing over there. And, the story came through, here from the daily caller.
RFK Jr. Slashes 10,000 jobs and first step to gut the bureaucratic sprawl at HHS. Department of Health of Health and Human Services, plans to slash 10,000 employees in a major restructuring of the whole department, HHS secretary Robert f Kennedy Jr announced on Thursday. When combined with other efforts by by Doge to downsize the workforce, to downsize the workforce will be reduced from 82,000 to 62,000 full time employees. He said, we aren't we aren't just reducing bureaucratic sprawl. We are realigning the organization with its core mission and our new priorities in reversing chronic disease epidemic. Let's hear from secretary Kennedy.
[00:55:22] Unknown:
Hey, everybody. I'd like to share with you a paradox that I've encountered here in Washington DC as the new secretary of HHS. Our department is filled for the most part with competent conscientious public service, and yet the agency has been inefficient as a whole. Over the past four years during the Biden administration, HHS' budget increased by 38%, and its staffing increased by 17%, but all that money has failed to improve the health of Americans. In fact, the rate of chronic disease and cancer increased dramatically as our department has grown. Our lifespan has dropped, so Americans now live six years shorter than Europeans.
We have the sickest nation in the world, and we have the highest rate of chronic disease. The US ranks last among 40 developed nations in terms of health, but we spend two to three times more per capita than those nations. As secretary, I now understand why all this money is not improving our health. HHS is a sprawling bureaucracy that encompasses literally hundreds of departments, committees, and other offices. You know how bureaucracies work. Every time a new issue arises, they tack on another committee. This leads to tremendous waste and duplication, and worst of all, a loss of any unified sense of mission.
The resulting pandemonium has injured American health and damaged department morale. When I arrived, I found that over half of our employees don't even come to work. HHS has more than a hundred communications offices, and more than 40 IT departments, and dozens of procurement offices, and nine HR departments. In many cases, they don't even talk to each other. They're mainly operating in silos. Sometimes these sub agencies work at cross purposes with each other. Some of these little fiefdoms, for example, are so insulated and territorial that they actually hoard our patient medical data and sell it for profit to each other. Instead of remedying the chronic disease crisis, perverse incentives have administrators checking boxes and grading their own homework while public health declines.
A few isolated divisions are neglecting public health altogether and seem only accountable to the industries that they're supposed to be regulating. In one case, defiant bureaucrats impeded the secretary's office from accessing the closely guarded databases that might reveal the dangers of certain drugs and medical interventions. I have some good news, though. As part of president Trump's DOGE workforce reduction initiative, we're gonna streamline HHS to make our agency more efficient and more effective. We're gonna imbue the agency with a clear sense of mission to radically improve the health of Americans and to improve agency morale. We're gonna eliminate an entire alphabet soup of departments and agencies while preserving their core functions by merging them into a new organization called the Administration for a Healthy America or We have two goals. The first is obvious, to save the taxpayer money by making our department more efficient, and the second is to radically improve our quality of service.
I wanna promise you now that we're gonna do more with less. No American is gonna be left behind. Our key services delivered through Medicare and Medicaid, the FDA and CDC and other agencies will enter a new era of responsiveness and a new era of effectiveness. We're gonna consolidate all of these departments and make them accountable to you, the American taxpayer, and the American patient. These goals will honor the aspirations of the vast majority of existing HHS employees who actually yearn to make America healthy. 28 great divisions will become 15.
The entire federal workforce is downsizing now, so this will be a painful period for HHS as we downsize from 82,000 full time employees to around 62,000. We're keenly focused on pairing away excess administrators while increasing the number of scientists and frontline health providers so that we can do a better job for the American people. We're gonna streamline our agency and eliminate the redundancies and invite everyone to align behind a simple bold mission. I want every HHS employee to wake up every morning asking themselves, what can I do to restore American health today?
I wanna empower everyone in the HHS family to have a sense of purpose and pride and a sense of personal agency and responsibility to this larger goal. We're gonna save taxpayers nearly $2,000,000,000 a year, and we're gonna return HHS to its original commitment to public health and gold standard science. I want this agency to be once again a revered scientific institution that once made HHS the envy of the world. I want everyone who works here to be proud of this agency, to be proud of their work, to feel a renewed inspiration in their own sense of responsibility for our success in restoring America to good health. Streamlining HHS is part of a shift to new priorities, especially ending the chronic disease epidemic with clean water, safe food, effective medicine, good science, radical transparency, and a healthy environment.
I think most Americans would agree with me that throwing more money at health care isn't gonna solve the problem or would have solved it already. Obviously, what we've been doing hasn't worked. That's why we're making this dramatic overhaul. But the real overhaul is even bigger. The real overhaul is improving the health of the entire nation to make America healthy again.
[01:01:23] Unknown:
Now I wanted to play that whole thing. I know it was long. It was about six minutes or so. But I wanted to play the whole thing because, again, you know, I have not given really any attention whatsoever to what RFK has been doing. And, he's been doing fantastic work. I mean, I've been seeing the I've been seeing articles. I've been reading about stuff, but I just haven't been able to really add it into the show at any point. So I wanted to make sure that I gave him some some time here, because that is it it's it's that's again, it's it's it's cost cutting, it's trimming down, it's being more efficient, and it's using the resources that are available, doing doing the the work that they're set out to do with a smaller workforce.
And that's fine, and that's great. And, and the the point that he made of that of of the additional monies, the additional staffing that the Biden administration had thrown at it did nothing to improve the health of the American people. And, of course, you know, he mentioned, the increase in cancer and, over the course of of, of that of that time. And, you know, my personal opinion on that is and I can say this because we're not on on YouTube, we're not on, you know, Twitch or anything like that, we're we're on Rumble. And, you know, I can say that I can say this, it I think a lot of that also has to do with the with the, the mRNA gene therapy.
I don't wanna say vaccine because it's really not a vaccine, it's gene therapy. But, I think a lot of the that increase in cancer has to do with those, with with with the, the COVID nineteen, mRNA gene therapy, injections that were forced on a lot of people. Fortunately for me, I mean, thank God, I, you know, I held out to the very end. I did not get it. So I'm a pure blood, but, you know, look, everybody makes their decisions. Everybody does what they need what they feel they need to do, what the right thing to do was. I was willing to lose my job, and I was willing to, you know, sacrifice that, you know, stand on my principles and not take a shot that the the government was so emphatically pushing on people. You know, I I my my personal philosophy is anytime the government pushes something on you like that, stay away from it.
Stay away from it. Anyway, I digress. I'm I'm off the subject a little bit anyway. But, I think I think it's, I think that he's doing a fantastic job over there at HHS, and, I gotta give him more I gotta give him more time. I gotta talk to him more about, I gotta give him more time and talk about more about what he's doing than what I just gave him here. Because, you know, without your health, what else have you got? Right? Right. Alright. Another piece of, of great news that this administration has undertaken is over at, housing and urban development.
HUD is now canceling taxpayer mortgages for illegal migrants. Today, HUD has terminated Biden taxpayer backed FHA mortgages for illegal aliens. American taxpayers will no longer subsidize open borders by offering home loans to those who enter our nation illegally. The Department of Housing and Urban Development HUD on Wednesday canceled some of the mortgages for illegal migrants as the department looked to prioritize federal home loans for US citizens. Illegal migrants are already ineligible for Federal Housing Administration loans, but the new order will give HUD greater enforcement power to ensure that illegal migrants are not somehow getting assistance, anyway, the National Review reported.
The order is part of HUD and the Department of Homeland Security's new initiative to seek to end wasteful misappropriation of taxpayer funded public housing resources that are going to illegal immigrants. The cancellation is expected to go into effect, February. Alright. That is great news. This is what you voted for. This is what you're getting. You know? Putting America and Americans first. America and Americans first. Look, I don't have a problem with immigration. I don't have a problem with, with legal immigration. It's the illegal that's the problem.
If you are in this country illegally, you do not deserve benefits. You do not deserve anything except to get arrested and deported. Call me what you like. What was this? Okay. Well, this is this is good. So, speaking at a White House event on, Wednesday, celebrating Women's History Month, Donald Trump, who, you know, everybody says, you know, you know, hates women, and misogynist, and, you know, all the other things that they call him. He said, well, actually, you know what? No. I'm gonna hold on to that one. I'm gonna go back to I'm gonna I'm gonna go to to to Friday, today.
A press conference he had today, at an impromptu press conference to the Oval Office, President Trump answered the famous question. I don't know if you remember this, but, Ketanji Brown Jackson at her, confirmation hearing for the Supreme Court. Do you remember the question they asked her? They asked her, what is a woman? Well, today at the White House, Donald Trump was asked that question. And again, this is this is coming from a man who everyone says, you know, hates women, an administration that hates women, and, you know, all the all the wonderful things that that the media and the left have said about president Trump. This was his response to that question. And, the question is, what is a woman?
[01:07:43] Unknown:
What is a woman and why is it important that we understand the difference between men and women? Well, it's sort of easy to answer for me because a woman is somebody that can have a baby under certain circumstances. She can she has a quality. A woman is a person who's much smarter than a man. I've always had a man. A woman is a person that doesn't give a man even a chance of success, and a woman's a person that in many cases has been treated very badly because I think that, what happens with this crazy this crazy issue of men being able to play in women's sports is just ridiculous and very unfair to women and very demeaning to women.
[01:08:23] Unknown:
Now, again, that's coming from a man that everyone says, or at least the media says, and the left says, you know, hates women, and is misogynistic, and, you know, and and doesn't like women, and doesn't want women, you know, to to this that's this is who the left says. Right? And you heard what he said. Women are treated very badly. He defends women. You know? And, I mean I mean, and he should know, you know, what what a good woman is. His his wife, Melania, I think is a is a good woman and, beautiful woman, and, so he should know. He should know. But on, on Wednesday, celebrating Women's History Month, Donald Trump, talked about, about men that want to pretend to be women.
Cut 10.
[01:09:16] Unknown:
Yeah. No matter how many surgeries you have or chemicals you inject, if you're born with male DNA in every cell of your body, you can never become a woman. You're not gonna be a woman. And that's why last month, I proudly signed a historic executive order to ban men from competing in women's sports, and it was very popular and very
[01:09:43] Unknown:
So again, this is the man that everyone says hates women, yet here he is again talking about, about about women. He's talking about protecting, and he he's led the charge, spearheading basically the, protection protecting women's spaces in in in in his in this in the second administration of the that he has, the second time around at the White House. And, and and he and and he honored the legacies of American women across history, including Betsy Ross, Harriet Tubman, Susan b Anthony, Clara Barton, Amelia Earnhardt, Earhardt. Sorry.
All legends, as he called them. He He also honored women who were serving in his White House, including Susie Wiles, Carolyn Levitt, Alina Haba, Pam Bondi, Brooke Rollins, and, Linda McMahon. He said that and Trump went on to say, and this is something else that the left doesn't ever talk about. Right? They're always talking about, you know, you know, the first this, the first woman that, the first black woman this, the first black woman that, the first, you know, whatever. You know, you name it. Hispanic woman, Latina, whatever. Alright? Trump said in in in this address, because there are more women in our cabinet than any Republican president in the history of our country. How come you don't hear about that on the news?
How come you don't hear the media talking about that? Don't you think that that's important? Don't you especially from a you know, for an administration that supposedly doesn't like women, that hates women, that tries to keep women down, that, you you you know where I'm saying? You know where I'm going with that. Right? Trump went on to say, for four long years, we had an administration that tried to abolish the very concept of womanhood and replace it with radical gender ideology. They destroyed women's spaces and even tried to replace the word mother with the term birthing person. The mother became a birthing person.
Trump noted that, he had seen the television, the Democrat fighting to keep trans identified males in women's sports. I mean, folks, the left still hasn't learned a lesson from this recent election, where they were do it where they were beaten beaten soundly in this election, because they held on to that woke ideology, Stripping women of of what it is to be a woman. Stripping women of their dignity. Not standing up for the for for moms and daughters. The left still hasn't learned, and they're still fighting for this for this ideology that that that does nothing but tear down what a real woman is. And, you know, I've I've said for for a long time, I I used to do a show back in in New York, years ago, back 2016, '20 '17, you know, beef you know, when this all this stuff starting to come around, it doesn't matter how many surgeries you have, doesn't matter how much how many chemicals you pump into your body, you will always you will and it doesn't make a difference. You will always be what you were born as.
If you were born female, you will always be female. And if look, if you wanna go and pretend, and you wanna, you know, all that, that's fine. That that's your choice. You do that. Go ahead. Have fun. But don't force me. Don't force other people to accept your mental illness. Okay? And that's all I'm gonna say. This is great news, by the way. I don't know if you wanna include this under the Doge stuff, but, earlier today, the, state department officially notified congress of the closing of USAID. Marco Rubio, state department has officially notified congress that the US Agency for International Development, USAID, has been dissolved, and the remaining operations of the agency will be run by the state department itself.
According to, United Press International, the state department officially told Congress that USAID was dissolved on Friday. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement that, today, the Department of State and the US Agency have notified Congress of their intent to undertake a reorganization that would involve realigning certain USAID functions to the department by 07/01/2025 and discontinuing the remaining USAID functions that do not align with administration priorities. So that is great news. Great news. He went on to say the the transfer will significantly enhance efficiency, accountability, uniformity, and strategic impact in delivering foreign assistance programs, allowing our nation and president to speak with one voice in foreign affairs.
It will also, obviate the need for USAID to continue operating as an independent establishment. All non statutory positions at USAID will be eliminated as part of the agency getting dissolved, the memo, had added. So that's that's great. Great. Great. Promise kept. Right? Promise made. Promise kept. Alright, let's see, on to the next tier. Well, at the the the end of all of that, we find this wonderful piece here that I'm going to play for you. So National Pulse data, historically high number of Americans say country on the right track under Trump. Several recent public opinion polls show a historically high number of Americans think the country is on the right track.
A recent NBC poll shows 44% of respondents saying the country is headed in the right direction, the highest number recorded since 02/2024. Ameris poll shows 45% saying we're on the right track, the highest number since 02/2009. So let's take a look at the, let's take a look at CNN having to, having to, talk about this. Where is it? I will find it. Just a moment. There we go.
[01:16:47] Unknown:
CNN. Let's take a look at the percentage of the country who say that we're on the right track. It's actually a very high percentage when you compare it to some historical numbers. What are we talking about? According to Maris, forty five percent say that we're on the right track. That's the second highest that Maris has measured since 02/2009. How about NBC News? Forty four percent. That's the highest since 02/2004. The bottom line is the percentage of Americans who say we're on the right track is through the roof. And if you were to compare it to when presidents have historically been reelected, of course, Trump is not constitutionally eligible to run for reelection, but I think it sort of puts it in perspective. 42% of the country says the country is on the right track when the incumbent party is reelected. And also keep in mind, back when Kamala Harris lost and Democrats were turned out of power, only about 27 to 28% of the country said the country is on the right track. The bottom line is right now, a much higher percentage of the country says we're on the right track.
[01:17:37] Unknown:
First of all, before I I I say what I was gonna say, did you just happen to notice the look on her face, the one that was on the left? She looked like she was sick to her stomach having to listen to this. I love watching CNN having to to to bite the bullet on this, and and and report on on these poll numbers. You know, not that you really take polls for for a lot, but, you know, you do have to pay attention to them to some degree. So just the look on her face was priceless to see how, like, thoroughly disgusted she looked at hearing these these positive numbers. And, the other thing too is is this this kind of dovetails back a little bit to what I was talking about just a few minutes ago, that the left took a beating because the American people were tired of being told that they were, racists. The American people took, were got tired of being told that they were, misogynistic.
They were tired of, the American people are tired of having their their culture and their history rewritten, and they were tired of this woke nonsense. They were tired of this this this trans ideology. The, you know, they were tired of of drag queen story hour. They were tired of, you know, all of that stuff. I mean, all of that stuff compounded, compounded, compounded, and then and plus the, you know, just just the just the the overall hate that comes out of the left. The American people had enough and gave this administration, this president, a mandate to turn things around, and he's doing that every single day. There isn't a day that goes by that Donald Trump doesn't do something that he said he was going to do in the course of his campaign.
Promises made, promises kept. That's the whole thing with his administration, and that's and that's why the the the country is happy. That's why the country is, trending in a positive direction. That's why people feel the way they feel about the administration, about the direction the country is going, because they're seeing action. They're seeing people speaking up on behalf of America, and American interests, and American culture, and America the American people are being put first, and that is what we all voted for.
That is what the majority of this country voted for. Promises made, promises kept. I I don't know how else to say it, and I'm gonna I can't know. It's like a broken record, but that's what that's what it is. It's it's promises made, promises kept. Well, we're gonna talk a little bit, about immigration stuff because, you know, my my favorite guy is is in here. So we're gonna we're gonna cover that really quickly. So we all remember, the the radical leftist mayor of, Boston when she said she wouldn't cooperate with, with immigration and customs enforcement, at a at a recent hearing that they had at at the at the on Capitol Hill.
But even though she said that, and even though she said that she wouldn't cooperate, and even though she said that she wouldn't allow it, ICE rounded up hundreds of dangerous criminals, dangerous migrants, regardless of of her position and her stance on it. Fox News reported, or posted rather, on March 24, new, ICE Boston announces that 205 of the 370 plus illegal aliens they arrested in major operation in Massachusetts have serious criminal convictions or charges. They were all at large arrests, meaning they were wandering the streets of Massachusetts. So not only were they wandering the streets of Massachusetts, they were also, you know, more likely than not receiving taxpayer benefits.
Previously deported Dominican illegal alien charged with fentanyl, trafficking arrested in the sanctuary city of Boston. Previously deported Honduran alien convicted of child rape rape arrested in Salem. Two Brazilians wanted for murder in their home countries arrested in Lowell and Milford. Guatemalan alien charged with rape of a minor released by the New Bedford District Court without ICE detainer being honored, arrested in New Bedford. Dominican alien, wanted for homicide, arrested in Dorchester. Brazilian alien charged with manslaughter, arrested in Worcester. Brazilian fugitive who who failed fled serving okay. Sorry. Brazilian fugitive who failed fled, serving murder sentence in Brazil arrested in Marlborough.
Previously deported Salvadorian eighteenth Street gang member arrested in Wakefield. Previously deported Jamaican alien convicted of armed robbery, possession of a firearm, and assault arrested in Pittsfield. Brazilian alien wanted in Brazil for drug trafficking arrested in West Yarmouth. So, ICE Boston also seized over five kilos of fentanyl or the equiv or the equivalent of two million doses, lethal doses. Remember, with fentanyl, just a pinhead amount is fatal. Patricia Hyde, the acting field office director of ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations in Boston said the Commonwealth is a safer place for our residents to live because, because of ICE and our federal law enforcement partners arresting, hundreds of alien offenders and remove them from the streets of Massachusetts.
So that's this is, this is, of course, you know, what we wanted. Alright? Mayor Wu, the, the mayor of Boston, has said more than once that Boston's local law enforcement would not assist federal authorities enforcing America's immigration laws, repeating her defiance again this week. Trump's borders are, however, Tom Homan, bashed Wu saying, I made a promise at CPAC that I was gonna I was going to Boston after reading about numerous illegal alien child rapists walking the streets of Boston. ICE had to find and arrest these illegal alien rapists because Massachusetts and Boston are sanctuaries that refuse to cooperate with ICE.
They would rather release these animals back into the community rather than honor ICE detainers and notify ICE when they are scheduled to be released. Well, that's the Democratic Party for you. That's what they are.
[01:24:20] Unknown:
Alright.
[01:24:30] Unknown:
Here's, who do we got here? Here's Pam Bondi. As soon as I could find it. My clips are not in order again. Alright. So here's, here's Pam Bondi on talking about the arrest of, because this is big too. This is, in in in Virginia. The FBI arrested a top leader of MS thirteen in Woodbridge, Virginia. 20 4 year old suspect who has not yet been named, was taken into custody in Woodbridge, Virginia, just south of Washington DC. He is reportedly one of the top three leaders of the gang in the country. Attorney General Pam Bondi, who watched the arrest from nearby tactical operations center, told the outlet, they executed a clean safe operation and got the bad guys in custody. And thanks to the FBI, we got the worst of the worst of the MS thirteen off the street this morning.
Let's take a look.
[01:25:38] Unknown:
We have been out since about 04:30 this morning. The great men and women of law enforcement have been working on this operation for days and days and probably weeks. This morning early this morning, one of the top leaders of MS thirteen was apprehended. He was the leader for the East Coast, 1 of the top three in the entire country. Right here in Virginia, living half an hour outside of Washington DC. He is an illegal alien from El Salvador, and he will not be living in our country much longer. He's in custody this morning, one of the top leaders right here near our nation's capital.
I just cannot thank governor Youngkin enough for his leadership in this effort. This has been a joint effort with state and local agencies. FBI director Patel, thank you so much.
[01:26:42] Unknown:
And then, Glenn Youngkin, the governor of Virginia, also at the press conference.
[01:26:48] Unknown:
What this task force over the course of the last four weeks represents is the model. The model of federal resources, stately resources, and local resources coming together in order to eradicate the drug and terrorist networks that exist. And I use the word terrorist because the illegal drug gangs, MS thirteen, Trende Aragua, they are international terrorist organizations, and they are resident right here. The resident across the country. And it requires this kind of task force, this collaboration of Virginia resources, our great Virginia state police led by colonel Hanley, our department of corrections led by judge Chad Dotson, along with our leadership at the administration level led by by secretary Terry Cole and our attorney general Jason Miyares to come together with tremendous resources from the federal government. And systematically over the last four weeks, we have gone to work.
Gone to work untangling, gone to work putting together the cases and arresting these horrific criminals, these criminals that live in our neighborhoods. The arrest this morning was in Dale City in Prince William County, right here in Northern Virginia, 1 of the best areas in America, and it was one of the top leaders of MS thirteen living here.
[01:28:20] Unknown:
So that's great news. Absolutely great news. And, you know, you gotta give Cash Patel, you gotta give you gotta give Ice, you gotta give Tom Holman, you gotta give these guys all the credit that you can possibly give them. You know, Pam Bondi, you know, this is good stuff. You know, and, you know, they need a boost right now. I think I think Pam Bondi is a little bit, in over her head, but, I think the this is this is stuff that is, that that is is just great news. To just to know. And just but just think about this for a second, because I lost my train of thought for a moment. But just think about this for a second. This this guy is one of the top MS thirteen leaders in the East Coast Of The United States at at 24 years old. And I know that when you when you, you know, you're involved in gangs like this, it's not always the, you know, you know, 24 years old is not always considered young. You know, you you you're, you know, living by the seat of your pants all the time.
But, but this guy, 24 years old, one of the top leaders of MS thirteen, was caught just outside of Washington DC. This guy could have been apprehended at any time. He could have been picked up at any time by the previous administration, but they refused to do it. Refused to do it. And why is that? I mean, that's a question I'd like to I'd I would love to have an answer to. Why wouldn't the previous administration want to pick up these people, detain these people? Why did they want them roaming around the country unfettered? Why is that?
It's an answer I'd like to have. And then we also have here in, in, in Houston. Venezuelan migrant arrested for mass shooting in Houston. Six people injured when suspect opened fire on attack on a packed Texas nightclub this week. Ice ice hold on Venezuelan subject indicating he may be in The US illegally. A Venezuelan suspect who may be in the country illegally is facing a slew of charges following a mass shooting in Texas that injured six people, including four who were gravely wounded according to authorities. Incident unfolded around 3AM on Sunday in Houston. Investigators believe Jose Miguel Briseno, twenty five, discharged a firearm to a packed nightclub called Latina's Sports Bar following a possible confrontation with another patron or employee.
Six people were struck by gunfire of victims, both male and female, ranging from 21 to 52. Four of the victims remain in critical condition as of Wednesday, according to the Houston police, which, released surveillance images of the suspect. Let's go to let's see. Do we have that? Here you go. Two male suspects are sought for the shooting. And we're gonna have that clip in a second here. Let's pull that up. Number 15.
[01:32:06] Unknown:
Good morning. I'm assistant chief James Skelton, Houston Police Department. I have with me Lieutenant Harelica, who's our night commander for Houston Police Department. At approximately 03:00 this morning, HPD dispatch received a call in regards to multiple people shot at Latina Sports Bar, which is located at 6419 Hillcroft. The establishment behind me is a true after hours club, something that we are trying to target in this city. So our dispatch received a call about individual shot upon arrival. Officers were met by the Houston Fire Department where three individuals who had been shot were transported to a local hospital.
Additionally, three other three other individuals were transported by private vehicle to hospitals. Currently, we have four individuals that are critical. They're in surgery at this time. I don't have any other information. We have officers at the hospital checking on their welfare. Other than that, this is what we have. We have our, major assaults investigators here that will comb through the scene and find any suspect clues. We do have some video, which is good. We're looking for a black Toyota Camry or Corolla with two suspects in it, both Hispanic males.
We know that, this is more of an isolated attack. So once we find out more information, we will release that. That's currently what we have at this scene. Once again, like I said, establishments like this that harbor within our city contributed crime. So Houston Police Department, we are targeting these locations, and we're gonna shut them down because it harbors the DWIs and the assaults, and this is exactly what we saw here tonight. So I'll take any questions from you at this time.
[01:33:47] Unknown:
You said you believe this is isolated in nature. Do you believe that because these people knew each other, had some type of preexisting issue with each other?
[01:33:57] Unknown:
Sure. Right now, that is under investigation. That's what it looks like from what we've learned. But once we find additional information, we will release that. And this being an after hours club, that means just the particulars, they don't have a license or they have a license, but not to be open past due. Well, so they may have a license of some type. Right? And I'm I don't have that information. However, they are serving alcohol after 02:00 in the morning, which is against the law. So we will conduct an investigation on that also.
[01:34:25] Unknown:
Were you guys able to run into any witnesses that were cooperative to help get information about what happened? Sure. Our investigators are working with some now to help us put all the puzzles together.
[01:34:36] Unknown:
All victims were male? Yes. They were.
[01:34:41] Unknown:
Any other questions? Any other questions? Was the shooting inside or outside?
[01:34:44] Unknown:
Right now, that is under investigation. It looks like it was from the outside.
[01:34:49] Unknown:
Do you know about how many people were in the area when this happened? I mean, it's three in the morning, but still It's three in the morning.
[01:34:57] Unknown:
I can tell you that this location was pretty packed at 03:00 in the morning. And like I said, this is what harbors in our communities, packed clubs when they're supposed to be closed serving alcohol.
[01:35:13] Unknown:
Alright. So yet another illegal involved in another crime right here in Texas. One thing we are thankful for though is that he has been arrested, he's in custody, and he's on an ice hold. And, we are just gonna, you know, hope and pray that, that that ICE takes gets him out of the country as quickly as possible. He gets deported. But despite the bad news such as that, you know, it was a good week as far as immigration goes, in the country about the the the, the illegals. And, one of the my favorite characters in the administration, of course, as you know, is Tom Homan. And, Tom Homan I'm gonna share the screen here because I didn't pull the audio clip. But Tom Homan hilariously spikes the football after massive success with illegal migrant arrests.
Alright. Tom Homan's having the time of his life. Everyone loves to see it. Yes. We do. America's best ever borders are Has a lot of victories to celebrate, especially recently. My colleague, Jennifer, so on and so forth. Homan is in the business of rounding up and deporting, illegal immigrants and business is good. The Biden administration has allowed so many violent criminals and drug traffickers that home and can kick over any given rock and find a few hiding underneath. Well, he appeared on, he appeared on, Fox News to talk about how the days of catch and release are gone and that deportation will happen immediately upon capture. This includes sending people to prisons like Gitmo in in El Salvador. He called president Trump a game changer, where, there's still a lot of work to be done. The team Trump put together is doing outstanding.
[01:37:09] Unknown:
Alright. So I think it's gonna open up a lot of eyes. I think, illegal aliens, most vulnerable, are not gonna spend their life savings to hand it to a criminal cartel to come to United States knowing we ended catching a leash. You're not gonna be released in United States. You're gonna be you're gonna be deported immediately. And, as the secretary said, we got a lot of tools in toolbox. El Salvador prison is one. We got Gitmo. We got other countries. So for those countries who push back on taking their criminal, nationals back, We'll send them to another country. We got we got a lot of tools in this toolbox. Again, president Trump's a game changer. We got, illiberal immigration on board down 96% because of the policies of the Trump administration, and we got, like I say, record number of criminals. We still got a lot a lot more to do in the interior, but we got the right team put together. This is this is, like, the greatest team I've seen in my over forty years serving as a a special agent or a mortgage agent. I never see a team this serious about making this country safe. We got a great president. He's got a great team. So I wake up every day like a kid in the candy shop, getting ready to go to work, and when I know we're making a difference every day.
[01:38:13] Unknown:
And you could tell too. You could tell he feels like a kid in the candy shop. You look you look at his face. He's happy. He's, you know, I like to see that. I like Tom Homan. I I would love to have seen him as the the AG, to be honest with you. I think that would have been hilarious. But, but, really, the the just doing a fantastic job. The agency told Newsweek that, ICE gave them the number of deportations so far while it well, while it's a lot, Holman is right. There's a lot more to do. The agency told Newsweek that it had removed 28,319 people from The US interior between January 20 and March 11 averaged to about 3,887 per week or 555 a day. Wow. That's that's good.
When the figure is taken as just those immigrants obtained by ICE agents, Trump would be outpacing Biden's removal numbers. However, this is just a deportation performed by ICE's isn't considering self deportations currently ongoing, nor does it include the captures happening at the border itself. Moreover, if you have to consider these deportations are made up mostly of major criminals, meaning that even to these thousands of people gone is making America far safer. And, can't say any better than that. Alright. Let's see. What else?
Well, the let let me I was I was gonna save this for the last piece, because it it's a it's a local story. It it has to do with, it has to do with here in Eagle Pass, or should I do the state speaker? Let me let me do this, the Eagle Pass One. Alright. So, Eagle Pass. Authorities in Texas apprehended a pair of, illegal aliens who apparently used high-tech gear to cross there we go. Illegals in wet suits caught sneaking across Rio Grande using water propulsion apparatus, as you can see it right there in the picture. Authorities in Texas apprehended a pair of illegal aliens who apparently used high-tech gear to cross the Rio Grande this week. Eagle Pass Police Department issued a press release detailing a bus that, unfolded on Thursday in a residential neighborhood.
EPPD was alerted about men trying to hide under a bridge on the border river. Officers encountered two males who were discovered to be illegal aliens from Mexico and Guatemala. And this is the press release right here. As a result of our collaborative efforts with our community, a vigilant citizen, of Eagle Pass reported two suspicious subjects in a residential neighborhood south of Eagle Pass. In South Eagle Pass, e p EPPD patrol officer immediately responded and, apprehended them. When apprehended, the two males were wearing full length wetsuits used for scuba diving, and each was in possession of an invalid water propuls of an individual water propulsion apparatus, with what could to what can only be assumed was to navigate through the treacherous waters of the Rio Grande. Legal's returned over to, the US border patrol.
Alright. So good work on, the Eagle Pass Police Department. Alright. And then this this last one, this is this is just a an example of a disgusting a disgusting human being. And, folks, this is the left. This is the Democratic party. State house speaker turns killing the unborn into a cost saving scheme, gruesomely insists on promoting abortion because live births are more expensive. Prominent lawmaker in the leftist state of Colorado has turned gruesome in her demands that the state promote abortion. She's insisting that the killing of unborn children is better for the state because births are more expensive.
Julie McCleskey, Colorado Democrat and extremist on abortion, said births will not occur because abortions happened instead. A birth is more expensive than an abortion. The savings comes the savings comes in Medicaid births that will not occur. She's the speaker of the Colorado House and continued savings from averted births outweigh the cost of covering reproductive health care for all Coloradans.
[01:42:24] Unknown:
Like, I don't even wanna play this, but I'm going to. That savings comes from the averted births that will not occur because abortions, happened instead. So a birth is more expensive than an abortion. So the savings comes in Medicaid births that will not occur. This bill will actually decrease costs for our health care policy and financing department, our Medicaid expenditures in both this year and out year out years as the savings from averted births outweigh the cost of covering reproductive health care for all Coloradans. This bill requires all abortion services to be state funded. The bill requires an increase to general fund of 1,500,000.0 to cover the cost for care. But, again, a reminder that, ultimately, the state will see a cost savings, and, ultimately, it is, truly an honor to be here carrying this bill alongside rep Garcia, and I ask for your support of senate bill one eighty three.
[01:43:31] Unknown:
So she's absolutely honored to be there, to present this bill. This is a disgusting human being. She would the report explained she reduced pregnancy and life to a price tag, including that those children should just die because it's cheaper. Gateway Pundit pointed out, anyone who looks at children, anyone who looks at children and childbirth in such a cold calculating terms has truly gone down an evil path. I could not agree any more than that. But folks, this is the left. This is the Democrats. This is who they are, folks. This is who they are.
It it is a the Democratic party is a culture of death, violence, disgusting, absolutely disgusting human beings. I hate to end the show on a on a on a down note like that, but but folks, I mean, do do we care so little about life that we keep putting people like this in office? Is disgusting. I I I I can't come up with a better word for it, or another word for it, but it it is it is it is evil. It is demonic, satanic, disgusting, that you would equate the life of a child with a price tag. You put a price tag in the life of a child. The life of another human being, you put a price tag on it.
Absolutely disgusting. And again, I hate to end the show on a note like that. Let Let me see if I can find something funny for us. And I I hear Charlie at the door, letting me know that it's it's time to say goodnight, but, like I said, I don't wanna end I don't wanna end on that kind of a note. Let's see what we could find here really quick. Oh, Bill Maher has been invited to the White House. Do we know that? And, Donald Trump, tapped Sarah Carter to be the next drug czar. I don't think we need all these czars, though. Well, I'm not gonna take too much time scrolling through trying to find, something funnier. But, you know, folks, the the the great thing is is that, you know, the right embraces a life.
Here we go. We're gonna do this. This is gonna be good. Alright. Let me, let me screen share this. K. We're gonna get up on here with True Social. Here we go. This is how we'll run the show tonight, folks.
[01:47:46] Unknown:
Yeah. I'll say excuse me. There you go.

If not, have a great weekend, and we'll talk to you, on the flip side when we get back. Alright. Talk to you later. Alright. So, here we are. Now I know last week, excuse me. Now I know last week, we said that, or at least I said earlier this week that we weren't really gonna talk too much about, Signal Gate anymore. I personally believe it's a non issue. I don't I don't think that, the administration really did anything wrong by using a, a a a a, an approved app to have communication between the, top end of the administration, the, the the department heads, that were involved in this, this strike against the, the Houthis.
I don't think there was any problem with that, considering that, again, it was an approved app to use. I think the bigger question is, of course, is who let the, who let the, the journalist in, Jeffrey Goldberg? And, how come nobody's questioning Jeffrey Goldberg as to why he, would publish such, classified information as they say. It's classified. It's not classified in any way. Sensitive, yes, but not classified. There is no specific information in in in these messages. We showed you them, so you know what they are. You've seen them. It really is a non issue, and, it it's really getting tiring. And, you know, President Trump is standing behind his team. He is, especially standing behind Pete Hegseth, who is seems to be under under, under fire for this, in an unbelievable, unbelievable fashion. As a matter of fact, earlier today, the, c I CIA director, John Ratcliffe, kinda got into an exchange with, with, Democrat, congressman, Gomez, at a hearing, after, congressman Gomez tried to imply that, that, Pete Hegseth was drunk or possibly drunk while, transmitting the information across the signal app, and then making, another reference to, him being at a podium holding a drink in his hand. But, no, we don't know what the drink was. It could've been anything.
So, so today, this, that this this, California Democrat, who is really just just a slimy, just snivelly, whiny, Democrat, you know, tried to impugn the the reputation of, Pete Hegseth. And by and and doing that by, by reviving the old, from the, from from his, his confirmation hearings about his drinking on the job, which, of course, was also not true. So, this is, it's about a minute and a half clip, and, this is congressman Gomez first questioning Tulsi Gabbard and then going on to, mister Ratcliffe.
[00:17:10] Unknown:
To your knowledge, do you know whether Pete Hegseth had been drinking, before he leaked classified information?
[00:17:16] Unknown:
No. Again, it was not classified information. Knowledge of secretary Hegseth's personal habits.
[00:17:22] Unknown:
Director Radcliffe, same
[00:17:27] Unknown:
question. Yes or no? You know, no. I'm gonna answer that. I I think that's an offensive line of questioning. The answer is no. I I find it interesting that you wanna no. No. I'm gonna answer you asked me a question. You wanna answer? No. Listen. I want to focus on the good work that the CIA is doing, that the intelligence community Director, I want to talk about my time. Director, I reclaim my time. Here
[00:17:50] Unknown:
I have huge respect for the CIA, huge respect for our men and women in uniform, but this was a question that's on the top of minds of every American. Right? He stood in front of a podium in, Europe holding a drink. So, of course, we wanna know if his, performance is compromised. If you or people were asking if the, general Austin was compromised because of a a heart issue
[00:18:20] Unknown:
Was his performance compromised because of a successful strike? Mister I bring my, you wanna know my time. You wanna talk about accepting responsibility? Do you think you would extend responsibility for a successful strike to make Americans safer? I really am.
[00:18:37] Unknown:
So over and over and over again, he he, this this whiny piece of crap Democrat, Jim Gonzalez, Gomez, just, I reclaim my time. I reclaim my time. I reclaim my time. So a couple of things on that. First of all, again, it wasn't classified information in the signal chat. Alright. Not classified information. How many times do we have to say it? Not classified. Alright. If it was classified, then, their darling, mister Goldberg would be in a lot of trouble for publishing that so supposed alleged classified information. Alright? And, the the the net the other takeaway is is that it was it it was an absolutely successful, campaign. The strikes were successful.
Whether or not he was drinking, and thirdly, it was not. This is not an issue that's on the minds of every single American. I don't I don't know of anyone, in my circle anyway, that that is concerned about this. Beyond the fact that somebody allowed Jeffrey Goldberg into the, signal chat. And again, again, an authorized secure app, encrypted app. Again, authorize, I'm saying it repeatedly. I know I'm repeating myself. I am saying it for a reason, an authorized app. What's so hard to understand about that? It's this they're making this all political. They want Pete Hegseth's head on a platter. They want him gone.
For whatever reason, they want him gone. Now, President Trump is standing behind, Pete Hegseth. He's standing behind his, his, his his team, rightly so. Nobody should be fired for this. There's no there this is this is a non issue. So with that non issue being taken care of, we are gonna move on to something that's, I think, much more important. Okay? And what I think is more important than all of this is these rogue judges, these rogue activist judges that are getting in the way of this administration fulfilling its article two responsibilities. I think that's a bigger concern right now than than this non issue with a, with a a chat app.
If you wanna go back to that for even just a second, we can we can always say this, alright? A mistake was made, the administration acknowledges that mistake, they are working on uncovering how it happened, and they are taking steps to make sure it doesn't happen again. That should be enough to move on. Anyway, again, the bigger problem is these rogue judges, these rogue activist judges that are going out of their way to get in the way of this administration, and keeping this administration from performing its constitutional duties and protecting and defending The United States.
Now yesterday, Mike Johnson made a made a a a a a fantastic argument. Now, I don't know if you're aware of this or not, trying to form my words. I don't know if you're aware of this or not, but The United States Constitution only establishes specifically the Supreme Court of the United States. That's what it specifically sets up, and that's it, as far as courts go. For the lower courts, that is left up to Congress, and that is something that, you know, a lot of people I don't think really realize, and if they do, they they tend to try to ignore it. Now, speaker Johnson, Speaker Johnson said yesterday that and he pointed out yesterday that the congress has the authority over the federal courts, and congress congress can eliminate the federal courts.
They can eliminate an entire district court. And I think that's something that needs to be done. Speaker Johnson said we do have power over funding over the courts and all of these other things, but desperate time times call for desperate measures, and Congress is going to act. Here's act. Here's Mike Johnson.
[00:24:47] Unknown:
We can eliminate an entire district court. We we have our funding over the courts and all these other things. But, desperate times call for desperate measures, and Congress is going to act. So stay tuned for that.
[00:24:57] Unknown:
Now the Daily Mail said that, this is a veiled reminder, if not a threat, that Congress has their eyes on district judges that that have issued injunctions and rulings against Trump's policy. And they have, which is not which is not an untrue statement. District judges have interfered with the executive branch in performing their duties under article two of the US constitution. They have gotten in the way of of, of the executive branch regarding Doge, spending, hiring, the hiring of executive branch employees, immigration, deportation, international policy.
And the congress has rightly so begun impeachment, procedures against some of these judges, like the the the Washington judge who ordered the administration to turn airplanes deporting criminal illegals around in mid air, and return those terror suspects to The United States, even demanding the White House national security details to which he is not authorized to even access. And we're talking about James Boasberg, who was a who was a far left activist judge, who actually demanded harsher penalties for the for the j six protesters than he does for criminal illegal aliens, criminal illegal gang members.
Remember, article three of the US Constitution assigns Congress the authority to ordain and establish courts beneath the Supreme Court. And, Mike and, Speaker Johnson has has has been very, very clear on that, that they're gonna be acting on this coming up in the next week, and I am I'm looking forward to seeing what exactly they're gonna do. I know that, Jim Jordan representative Jordan has, who's, who's the house judiciary chair And is responsible for overseeing federal law enforcement in the cost, and the court system, told, Just the News, yesterday that, he's planning to address reforms to the judicial system in three ways.
Passing legislation to limit nationwide injunctions, which is a no brainer. You know, a district court in in, in in in, in in Rhode Island should not be able to affect, first of all, the executive branch and and, a nationwide, policy. So, yeah, so they'll be looking at legislation. They'll be looking at, they'll be looking at, funding. And I forgot what the third ish I forgot what the third one is, but but those two main things, legislatively to to to to, to limit nationwide injunctions, and cut funding to these district courts. And I think it's about time.
Alright. Let's move on to some, Doge stuff because, we we have not really talked too much about Doge, the last couple of days. I've been kinda busy with other stuff, like signal gate. Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. So, let's see. The postmillennial, Trump demands Doge claw back $2,000,000,000 given to Stacey Abrams environmental fund, before he took office. So Donald Trump said said this in a in a, in in a truth message. Whatever happened to the $8,000,000 given by our government to radical left political magazine or whatever you would call it, owned by wealthy guys, this money should be taken back by Doge ASAP.
Also, is is Stacey Abrams gonna give back the $2,000,000,000 they funneled into her environmental fund just prior to my assuming office? She went from from $100 in donations to 2,000,000,000 in just one day. Not bad. Get back the money. Just think about that. Her her organization had $100 in donations, and then right before the president was inaugurated, right before he took office, somehow, someway, 2,000,000,000 of your tax dollars were funneled into her her, her her little community coalition, which was called, Abrams wrote in a 02/2023 post. Thrilled to be part of the rewiring America and the power forward communities coalition.
This is how we expand access to clean energy by prioritizing housing, equity, and resilience. We're building a future where everyone, regardless of income or place can thrive.
[00:30:52] Unknown:
The,
[00:30:55] Unknown:
the power forward community was grant was, grant was one of the eight grants the EPA approved in April 2024 that totaled $20,000,000,000. In February, EPA administrator Lee Zeldin vowed to get this money back. Roughly 20,000,000,000 of your tax dollars were parked were parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden by the Biden EPA. This scheme was the first of its kind in EPA history and is purposely designed to to obligate all of the money in a rush job with reduced oversight, said administrator Lee Zeldin.
Twenty so 2,000,000,000 of your dollars were given to Stacey Abrams. Gateway Pundit reported that, let's see. Vegas police arrested a suspect in connection with a Tesla firebombing. See if I can get that going. And I'm sure we all remember seeing this repeatedly on the news. Vehicle set on fire fire in a in in a Tesla in, in a in a Tesla, dealership in Las Vegas. Well, they have finally found someone or arrested someone. Let's, pull that up right there. So Las Vegas Metro Police say, a search of Tesla firebombing suspect Paul Kim's social media shows him with potential communist and pro Palestine affiliations. They say that they have a DNA match and showed video of him, using a rifle to shoot out surveillance cameras before the attack.
According to police, Paul Kim used molotov cocktails and, firearms during his attack on the Tesla Center last Tuesday morning. Kim was charged with third degree arson, shooting a gun at an abandoned structure, vehicle destructing of of real property, and possession of flammable device. Paul Kim is expected in court this afternoon. There you go. And there's the video we just played for you. Now, also, you know, this is just a this is just a string of, of of attacks on on Tesla property. You have, you have this this gentleman. I think it's a gentleman.
The Texarkana Bandit intentionally ramming his little, scooter or its scooter. They're calling him the Texarkana Bandit. And then, of course, we're looking for, this this this person keying a Tesla model, Model Y. These people are sick, folks. There these people are sick. I'm telling you, liberalism is a mental illness, and it needs to be treated as such. A mental illness. They need to be they need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. They need to go to jail, and they need to go to jail for a while. For a long while.
Pam Bondi, R A G Pam Bondi, of course took to, Fox News, and, had this to say on the, on on these, Tesla vandals.
[00:34:54] Unknown:
It's happening, with this Las Vegas Tesla, criminal who he was arrested, and now federal charges have been filed against him. This was this was something that was needed given everything we're seeing happening to those dealerships and those cars across the country. That was remarkable
[00:35:11] Unknown:
police work, working with the state police, our FBI. They have been going nonstop on this case. This guy is in custody. Laura, he is facing five year minimum mandatory to twenty years in prison, and this was great police work. This guy thought he got away with it, so these people better look out, they better cut it out because we are coming after you and at my direction there will be no negotiating on these people. No plea deal. We are seeking twenty years in prison. They are setting off bombs. The huge fires. Look what you're seeing. Huge massive fires in residential neighborhoods. Someone's gonna get killed. Charging stations. Someone is gonna get killed. A citizen is gonna get killed. And and these people, we are not doing any plea negotiations on them. So they better cut it out. We have, some information about the groups that he belonged to, this individual. Let's watch.
[00:36:01] Unknown:
But a preliminary assessment of the suspect's social media activity indicates some very loose but self proclaimed ties to the Communist Party USA social media group, as well as social media groups called Revolutionary Communist International, Hidden Palestine, Palestine Action, and a variety of other social media groups.
[00:36:19] Unknown:
I mean, this is like a a cliche, a very left wing communist, socialist,
[00:36:24] Unknown:
Hamas. Right. We we are looking at, in all of these cases, every aspect, every we are not gonna leave a stone unturned.
[00:36:34] Unknown:
So the So, also, so just to go back here for a moment. So breaking, Charlie Kirk posted this. Las Vegas police have arrested 36 year old Paul Kim, which we already talked about. And then you have, all of these daily cases of vandalism that that people are catching here. The Tesla dash cam, right here. Tesla vandalized, help identify the sus the suspect. I don't think it
[00:37:09] Unknown:
switched over.
[00:37:22] Unknown:
Okay. Then you have here, I don't know if this is a well, to me, it looks like a a man. So, Shaden Hezner, and if I'm not mistaken, this person was was identified and found. Yes. Has been arrested and cited for criminal tampering. And then you have this this person here was caught, doing $7,000 in damages by vandalizing three different Teslas that were all parked in the same parking lot. Another gentleman here, another one here. I mean folks, this is disgusting. You know, these people, and then there's this one. She's been promoting violent against Tesla property in in Portland. Says destruction of property is perfectly vile form of protest. She clearly is deranged and a threat to people.
It's courtesy of World Net Daily. Folks, the the the these people are deranged. Like I've said many times and I keep on saying it, the left is the party of violence. The left is the party of hate. The left is the party of of, just of of just destruction. They are mentally ill. They need to be treated as harshly as possible. And I kinda grouped this together with, Tesla and Doge together, same, you know, because of Elon and, you know, the whole thing. Alright. So, Elon Musk is pushing back against Democrat Social Security, Musk pushes back against Democrat Social Security cuts fearmongering, says recipients will receive more money, not less. Speaking with Fox News on Thursday, Elon Musk and members of the Department of Government Efficiency explained their agenda for revamping the Social Security Administration.
While mainstream media and Democrat politicians claim the administration is going to cut Social Security, Musk and the Doge team clarified their goal to ensure citizens legitimately to ensure citizens legitimately get their benefits and to protect them from fraud, that they ex from fraud that they experience on a routine basis. Let's, let's go to let's go to six.
[00:40:07] Unknown:
We learned 40% of the phone calls that they get are from frauds.
[00:40:17] Unknown:
Try that again.
[00:40:20] Unknown:
We learned 40% of the phone calls that they get are from fraudster.
[00:40:26] Unknown:
Alright. So I got a little problem going on with that. So let's go to
[00:40:32] Unknown:
this. So call in. They say they claim to be, almost a retiree. Yes. Then they they and they convince the post the Social Security person on the phone to change the where the where the money's flowing. It it actually goes to some fraudster. This is happening all day every day. And and then and then somebody doesn't receive their Social Security. It's because,
[00:40:53] Unknown:
of of all of the fraud loopholes in the Social Security system. How do you reassure people that what you all are doing is not gonna affect their benefits?
[00:41:02] Unknown:
No. In fact, what what we're doing will help their benefits. Legitimate people, as a result of the work of Doge, will receive more Social Security, not less. Wanna emphasize that. As a result of the work of Doge, legitimate, recipients of Social Security will receive more money, not less money. Alright. I wanna emphasize that point. And and and and let the record show that I said this, and the it will be proven out to be true. Let's let's check back on this in the future. So it's Washington Post. The Social Security Administration website crashed four times in ten days this month because the servers were over
[00:41:37] Unknown:
Now can you imagine 4040% of the calls to the Social Security Administration come from fraudsters that are looking to to have payments rerouted to their accounts? Just just think about that. And and the way they do it is, and and we we heard him say is one of the key tricks that they do is they they will say that, they they use the fact that someone is marked alive, that social security number is marked alive with social security, and they get disability, unemployment insurance for that person, because the databases don't talk to each other. Let's go to, clip seven.
[00:42:25] Unknown:
Like, one one of the the key tricks that the pull is that they will use the fact that someone is marked as live and as as, sort of just that that social security number is marked as live in social security, and then, then get disability and unemployment insurance for a dead person. Because the databases don't talk to each other, all they got was, from Social Security is, like, is this person alive? Yes. They're not they're not alive. It's falsely marked person is falsely marked as alive in Social Security. But they didn't but but that that first a fraudster can now get unemployment and disability for from a dead person.
This is happening all the time at scale.
[00:43:04] Unknown:
Now, I don't care how the media wants to spin it. I don't care what they have I don't care how they try to say it. But when when someone who's who is receiving Social Security start to see that their checks are gonna get bigger, that their accounts gonna be more secure, they're not gonna have a choice but to admit that Doge is working for the benefit of the American people. Again, because right now all they're doing is saying that, you know, they're they're gonna be cutting your social security, you're not gonna be receiving grandma's gonna die because she's not gonna get her social security benefits, when none of that is true.
None of that is true. I'll say it a third time, none of that is true. Doge is working to improve the operation of Social Security. And other other offices too, but right now they're focusing on Social Security. Folks, we owe Elon Musk and his team a debt of thanks, a debt of gratitude. You know, this man is living with under the threat of violence against himself, against his family. He doesn't have to do this. He's one of the richest men in the world. He doesn't need to be doing this. He's not he's not getting paid for this. The money that he's saving the the, the American taxpayers is not going to his pocket, it's going back into the US Treasury. It's going to pay the debt, and hopefully they're gonna be issuing out these refund checks.
This is working for the American people. This is this is what we voted for. This is what I voted for. This is what I wanna see. I wanna see Doge do this. I wanna see Doge secure. You know how many people have paid into the social security system and get not even a fraction of what they paid into it because of fraud, waste, and abuse? More fraud. So this is great. This is fantastic stuff. This is this this is this is something we should be very happy about, and I find it very interesting how the left and the mainstream media are trying to spin this as it's a bad thing.
Don't you want to find the fraud, waste, and abuse? I mean, ten, eleven years ago, under the Obama administration, that was a main talking point to to root out fraud, waste, and abuse. You heard Schumer talking about it, Pelosi talking about it, Obama himself was talking about it. As a matter of fact, Obama appointed Joe Biden to oversee the the investigation into fraud, waste, and abuse. And I would not be surprised, and I can't, you know, I I can't prove this, but knowing what we know right now about Joe Biden and and and the the and the nefarious things that he'd been doing, he probably took advantage of the situation to to to enrich himself and his family through that.
Can't prove it yet, but I'm sure that if they looked into that, they would. This is great stuff. This is great. What Doge is doing is is is great stuff. And again, we ought to be thanking Elon Musk for everything that he's been doing. Can't say it enough. The work that Doge is doing is legitimate, cost saving work. I appreciate it. I'm thankful for it. I mean is it directly affecting me right now? No, of course not, it's not, but you know something? In the long run it will. In the long run it will. In the long run I am hopeful that it will benefit my children, and my grandchildren.
This is great new this is folks, this is great stuff. I heard Owen Shroyer on War Room say you know, talk about something, about the same story, And, you know, he he said it right. This is revolutionary stuff. This is this is 1776 revolutionary stuff. We should be thankful for this. This is what if you listen, folks. If you voted for Donald Trump, he told you he was gonna do this. This is what he said. Even if you didn't vote for Donald Trump, he told you this is what he's going to do, and he's doing it. Promises made, promises kept. They're doing fantastic work.
Fantastic work. Let's see what else we got here. Alright. Moving away from the Doge stuff, momentarily here. This I I saw this, and and I I actually saw the clip, when it actually happened. I saw I watched it live, and I thought it was great, and I was like, oh, you know, I gotta I gotta try to find that, to to show you guys. But, I found it on Red State. They they ran a piece about this. The v the VA secretary, the veterans affairs secretary, Doug Collins. He sat down with, Caitlin Collins, at at CNN. And, you know, it's let me see where where can I get to? Let's see.
Let me go to the article. Hold on. Let me pull that up. So So I'm gonna show you this clip. It's about two minutes. But let me let me set the backup story here. So all the liberal media seems to wanna talk about is a signal story. They don't wanna talk about all the positive successes the Trump team is pulling off for the Democrat off or the Democrats, being in disarray with historically low approval. But I think the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Doug Collins, may have just killed that strategy big time during his appearance at CNN. Doug Collins was supposed to be on on to talk about veterans, but CNN's Caitlin Collins then asked him about his opinion on the signal story. He said he wasn't on the call, so he couldn't say anything more than his colleagues had already said, but, then that he was there to talk about veterans. But she kept pressing him on the signal story, and this happened.
[00:49:58] Unknown:
Do you believe that a mistake was made here though to have this conversation, to add a reporter, and to have it on an un unsupported, un you know, classified group setting?
[00:50:08] Unknown:
Caitlin, as I've just told you, I've just answered the question. I wasn't part of it. And, you know, I'm not gonna speculate more than what the president's already talked about and those who've been involved have talked about, but we'd love to talk about the veterans.
[00:50:18] Unknown:
Yeah. And I do have questions about the the veterans. But given what we saw with the the group chat and how this was used, you are a member of the cabinet. You obviously know these other members, several of them who were in there. Is this typical for the cabinet to have conversations over signal? Is this something that you use?
[00:50:35] Unknown:
Well, Caitlin, Cindy, you undoubtedly do not wanna talk about the VA. I have a question as VA secretary. His cabinet, I wanna ask you because I've been curious about this because my job is to take care of veterans. And I would like to know why CNN is hostile to veterans, especially one in Florida where you just had a $5,000,000 defamation suit, taking offense at a veteran who is trying to help people. In fact, one of your employees actually said we're gonna nail him. I have a question for you, Caitlin. Is that employee still employed? Are you really concerned about veterans? So if we don't wanna talk about veterans now, you wanna talk about everything else, I'd like to hear from CNN as the veteran cabinet secretary why CNN seems to have a problem, with veterans.
[00:51:15] Unknown:
Well, mister secretary, respectfully, my question was about whether or not you as a member of the cabinet to use this. Caitlin. And and respectfully, I'm conducting the investigation. And I do have a lot of questions for you on Veterans Affairs,
[00:51:26] Unknown:
but I don't think No, Caitlin. What you wanna do is you wanna talk about a subject. What you wanna do is cabinet. Have all the answers. And if you wanna continue this like this, that's fine. But there are VA employees who are working very hard. There are veterans who get their care from the VA, and they get their benefits from the VA. And it does mean no good to speculate on something that I've already asked and answered. So I've asked and answered your question. Why don't you answer mine? Are you still in is this person still employed who said they're gonna nail one of my veterans? Who you had to do a $5,000,000 award for the jury because of defamation, and then you settled the case. Answer my question.
[00:52:01] Unknown:
Respectfully, sir, I'm asking the questions here, and I have, no involvement in any of my referencing there. But if you don't wanna answer the question about whether or not
[00:52:10] Unknown:
That's the way you have to answer these people. That is an absolute master class that Doug Collins put on, and this is the way the entire Trump team should be to be, responding to the media on this particular subject. Masterclass. And, you know, again, there they are, the mainstream, spinning the fame that is an unsecured, unapproved, unclassified, application when we already know that that's not the case, that this is something that's approved for use on the government, networks, and there was no classified information in the in the, in the group chat, and there was nothing wrong with them using an app like this. I mean, I wouldn't, you know, I wouldn't wanna transmit sensitive information over. I mean, it was kinda sensitive information, but none of it was classified.
And, and and yet, just continuing the narrative of of going after, you know, the the participants in the group, even to somebody who was not involved in it. Secretary Collins is absolutely correct. He is responsible for the veterans. He had nothing to do with the chat. He wasn't in the chat. And so anything he would say on that would be pure speculation, and and he was absolutely right about it. But the great thing and the way he answered those questions, the great takeaway for the whole thing is I just wanna show you this, the look of defeat on her face.
That is a look of defeat, wiped out. That's the way you have to handle the media with, in in this administration. That's the way you have to do it. Now, I wanna go over here to, I wanna talk a little bit really quick about something else that I that I feel kind of I I feel kind of guilty about myself because, RFK Junior has been doing a fantastic job over at, at, at at the, Health and Human Services department. And, you know, you you don't really get to hear much about what he's been doing over there. And, the story came through, here from the daily caller.
RFK Jr. Slashes 10,000 jobs and first step to gut the bureaucratic sprawl at HHS. Department of Health of Health and Human Services, plans to slash 10,000 employees in a major restructuring of the whole department, HHS secretary Robert f Kennedy Jr announced on Thursday. When combined with other efforts by by Doge to downsize the workforce, to downsize the workforce will be reduced from 82,000 to 62,000 full time employees. He said, we aren't we aren't just reducing bureaucratic sprawl. We are realigning the organization with its core mission and our new priorities in reversing chronic disease epidemic. Let's hear from secretary Kennedy.
[00:55:22] Unknown:
Hey, everybody. I'd like to share with you a paradox that I've encountered here in Washington DC as the new secretary of HHS. Our department is filled for the most part with competent conscientious public service, and yet the agency has been inefficient as a whole. Over the past four years during the Biden administration, HHS' budget increased by 38%, and its staffing increased by 17%, but all that money has failed to improve the health of Americans. In fact, the rate of chronic disease and cancer increased dramatically as our department has grown. Our lifespan has dropped, so Americans now live six years shorter than Europeans.
We have the sickest nation in the world, and we have the highest rate of chronic disease. The US ranks last among 40 developed nations in terms of health, but we spend two to three times more per capita than those nations. As secretary, I now understand why all this money is not improving our health. HHS is a sprawling bureaucracy that encompasses literally hundreds of departments, committees, and other offices. You know how bureaucracies work. Every time a new issue arises, they tack on another committee. This leads to tremendous waste and duplication, and worst of all, a loss of any unified sense of mission.
The resulting pandemonium has injured American health and damaged department morale. When I arrived, I found that over half of our employees don't even come to work. HHS has more than a hundred communications offices, and more than 40 IT departments, and dozens of procurement offices, and nine HR departments. In many cases, they don't even talk to each other. They're mainly operating in silos. Sometimes these sub agencies work at cross purposes with each other. Some of these little fiefdoms, for example, are so insulated and territorial that they actually hoard our patient medical data and sell it for profit to each other. Instead of remedying the chronic disease crisis, perverse incentives have administrators checking boxes and grading their own homework while public health declines.
A few isolated divisions are neglecting public health altogether and seem only accountable to the industries that they're supposed to be regulating. In one case, defiant bureaucrats impeded the secretary's office from accessing the closely guarded databases that might reveal the dangers of certain drugs and medical interventions. I have some good news, though. As part of president Trump's DOGE workforce reduction initiative, we're gonna streamline HHS to make our agency more efficient and more effective. We're gonna imbue the agency with a clear sense of mission to radically improve the health of Americans and to improve agency morale. We're gonna eliminate an entire alphabet soup of departments and agencies while preserving their core functions by merging them into a new organization called the Administration for a Healthy America or We have two goals. The first is obvious, to save the taxpayer money by making our department more efficient, and the second is to radically improve our quality of service.
I wanna promise you now that we're gonna do more with less. No American is gonna be left behind. Our key services delivered through Medicare and Medicaid, the FDA and CDC and other agencies will enter a new era of responsiveness and a new era of effectiveness. We're gonna consolidate all of these departments and make them accountable to you, the American taxpayer, and the American patient. These goals will honor the aspirations of the vast majority of existing HHS employees who actually yearn to make America healthy. 28 great divisions will become 15.
The entire federal workforce is downsizing now, so this will be a painful period for HHS as we downsize from 82,000 full time employees to around 62,000. We're keenly focused on pairing away excess administrators while increasing the number of scientists and frontline health providers so that we can do a better job for the American people. We're gonna streamline our agency and eliminate the redundancies and invite everyone to align behind a simple bold mission. I want every HHS employee to wake up every morning asking themselves, what can I do to restore American health today?
I wanna empower everyone in the HHS family to have a sense of purpose and pride and a sense of personal agency and responsibility to this larger goal. We're gonna save taxpayers nearly $2,000,000,000 a year, and we're gonna return HHS to its original commitment to public health and gold standard science. I want this agency to be once again a revered scientific institution that once made HHS the envy of the world. I want everyone who works here to be proud of this agency, to be proud of their work, to feel a renewed inspiration in their own sense of responsibility for our success in restoring America to good health. Streamlining HHS is part of a shift to new priorities, especially ending the chronic disease epidemic with clean water, safe food, effective medicine, good science, radical transparency, and a healthy environment.
I think most Americans would agree with me that throwing more money at health care isn't gonna solve the problem or would have solved it already. Obviously, what we've been doing hasn't worked. That's why we're making this dramatic overhaul. But the real overhaul is even bigger. The real overhaul is improving the health of the entire nation to make America healthy again.
[01:01:23] Unknown:
Now I wanted to play that whole thing. I know it was long. It was about six minutes or so. But I wanted to play the whole thing because, again, you know, I have not given really any attention whatsoever to what RFK has been doing. And, he's been doing fantastic work. I mean, I've been seeing the I've been seeing articles. I've been reading about stuff, but I just haven't been able to really add it into the show at any point. So I wanted to make sure that I gave him some some time here, because that is it it's it's that's again, it's it's it's cost cutting, it's trimming down, it's being more efficient, and it's using the resources that are available, doing doing the the work that they're set out to do with a smaller workforce.
And that's fine, and that's great. And, and the the point that he made of that of of the additional monies, the additional staffing that the Biden administration had thrown at it did nothing to improve the health of the American people. And, of course, you know, he mentioned, the increase in cancer and, over the course of of, of that of that time. And, you know, my personal opinion on that is and I can say this because we're not on on YouTube, we're not on, you know, Twitch or anything like that, we're we're on Rumble. And, you know, I can say that I can say this, it I think a lot of that also has to do with the with the, the mRNA gene therapy.
I don't wanna say vaccine because it's really not a vaccine, it's gene therapy. But, I think a lot of the that increase in cancer has to do with those, with with with the, the COVID nineteen, mRNA gene therapy, injections that were forced on a lot of people. Fortunately for me, I mean, thank God, I, you know, I held out to the very end. I did not get it. So I'm a pure blood, but, you know, look, everybody makes their decisions. Everybody does what they need what they feel they need to do, what the right thing to do was. I was willing to lose my job, and I was willing to, you know, sacrifice that, you know, stand on my principles and not take a shot that the the government was so emphatically pushing on people. You know, I I my my personal philosophy is anytime the government pushes something on you like that, stay away from it.
Stay away from it. Anyway, I digress. I'm I'm off the subject a little bit anyway. But, I think I think it's, I think that he's doing a fantastic job over there at HHS, and, I gotta give him more I gotta give him more time. I gotta talk to him more about, I gotta give him more time and talk about more about what he's doing than what I just gave him here. Because, you know, without your health, what else have you got? Right? Right. Alright. Another piece of, of great news that this administration has undertaken is over at, housing and urban development.
HUD is now canceling taxpayer mortgages for illegal migrants. Today, HUD has terminated Biden taxpayer backed FHA mortgages for illegal aliens. American taxpayers will no longer subsidize open borders by offering home loans to those who enter our nation illegally. The Department of Housing and Urban Development HUD on Wednesday canceled some of the mortgages for illegal migrants as the department looked to prioritize federal home loans for US citizens. Illegal migrants are already ineligible for Federal Housing Administration loans, but the new order will give HUD greater enforcement power to ensure that illegal migrants are not somehow getting assistance, anyway, the National Review reported.
The order is part of HUD and the Department of Homeland Security's new initiative to seek to end wasteful misappropriation of taxpayer funded public housing resources that are going to illegal immigrants. The cancellation is expected to go into effect, February. Alright. That is great news. This is what you voted for. This is what you're getting. You know? Putting America and Americans first. America and Americans first. Look, I don't have a problem with immigration. I don't have a problem with, with legal immigration. It's the illegal that's the problem.
If you are in this country illegally, you do not deserve benefits. You do not deserve anything except to get arrested and deported. Call me what you like. What was this? Okay. Well, this is this is good. So, speaking at a White House event on, Wednesday, celebrating Women's History Month, Donald Trump, who, you know, everybody says, you know, you know, hates women, and misogynist, and, you know, all the other things that they call him. He said, well, actually, you know what? No. I'm gonna hold on to that one. I'm gonna go back to I'm gonna I'm gonna go to to to Friday, today.
A press conference he had today, at an impromptu press conference to the Oval Office, President Trump answered the famous question. I don't know if you remember this, but, Ketanji Brown Jackson at her, confirmation hearing for the Supreme Court. Do you remember the question they asked her? They asked her, what is a woman? Well, today at the White House, Donald Trump was asked that question. And again, this is this is coming from a man who everyone says, you know, hates women, an administration that hates women, and, you know, all the all the wonderful things that that the media and the left have said about president Trump. This was his response to that question. And, the question is, what is a woman?
[01:07:43] Unknown:
What is a woman and why is it important that we understand the difference between men and women? Well, it's sort of easy to answer for me because a woman is somebody that can have a baby under certain circumstances. She can she has a quality. A woman is a person who's much smarter than a man. I've always had a man. A woman is a person that doesn't give a man even a chance of success, and a woman's a person that in many cases has been treated very badly because I think that, what happens with this crazy this crazy issue of men being able to play in women's sports is just ridiculous and very unfair to women and very demeaning to women.
[01:08:23] Unknown:
Now, again, that's coming from a man that everyone says, or at least the media says, and the left says, you know, hates women, and is misogynistic, and, you know, and and doesn't like women, and doesn't want women, you know, to to this that's this is who the left says. Right? And you heard what he said. Women are treated very badly. He defends women. You know? And, I mean I mean, and he should know, you know, what what a good woman is. His his wife, Melania, I think is a is a good woman and, beautiful woman, and, so he should know. He should know. But on, on Wednesday, celebrating Women's History Month, Donald Trump, talked about, about men that want to pretend to be women.
Cut 10.
[01:09:16] Unknown:
Yeah. No matter how many surgeries you have or chemicals you inject, if you're born with male DNA in every cell of your body, you can never become a woman. You're not gonna be a woman. And that's why last month, I proudly signed a historic executive order to ban men from competing in women's sports, and it was very popular and very
[01:09:43] Unknown:
So again, this is the man that everyone says hates women, yet here he is again talking about, about about women. He's talking about protecting, and he he's led the charge, spearheading basically the, protection protecting women's spaces in in in in his in this in the second administration of the that he has, the second time around at the White House. And, and and he and and he honored the legacies of American women across history, including Betsy Ross, Harriet Tubman, Susan b Anthony, Clara Barton, Amelia Earnhardt, Earhardt. Sorry.
All legends, as he called them. He He also honored women who were serving in his White House, including Susie Wiles, Carolyn Levitt, Alina Haba, Pam Bondi, Brooke Rollins, and, Linda McMahon. He said that and Trump went on to say, and this is something else that the left doesn't ever talk about. Right? They're always talking about, you know, you know, the first this, the first woman that, the first black woman this, the first black woman that, the first, you know, whatever. You know, you name it. Hispanic woman, Latina, whatever. Alright? Trump said in in in this address, because there are more women in our cabinet than any Republican president in the history of our country. How come you don't hear about that on the news?
How come you don't hear the media talking about that? Don't you think that that's important? Don't you especially from a you know, for an administration that supposedly doesn't like women, that hates women, that tries to keep women down, that, you you you know where I'm saying? You know where I'm going with that. Right? Trump went on to say, for four long years, we had an administration that tried to abolish the very concept of womanhood and replace it with radical gender ideology. They destroyed women's spaces and even tried to replace the word mother with the term birthing person. The mother became a birthing person.
Trump noted that, he had seen the television, the Democrat fighting to keep trans identified males in women's sports. I mean, folks, the left still hasn't learned a lesson from this recent election, where they were do it where they were beaten beaten soundly in this election, because they held on to that woke ideology, Stripping women of of what it is to be a woman. Stripping women of their dignity. Not standing up for the for for moms and daughters. The left still hasn't learned, and they're still fighting for this for this ideology that that that does nothing but tear down what a real woman is. And, you know, I've I've said for for a long time, I I used to do a show back in in New York, years ago, back 2016, '20 '17, you know, beef you know, when this all this stuff starting to come around, it doesn't matter how many surgeries you have, doesn't matter how much how many chemicals you pump into your body, you will always you will and it doesn't make a difference. You will always be what you were born as.
If you were born female, you will always be female. And if look, if you wanna go and pretend, and you wanna, you know, all that, that's fine. That that's your choice. You do that. Go ahead. Have fun. But don't force me. Don't force other people to accept your mental illness. Okay? And that's all I'm gonna say. This is great news, by the way. I don't know if you wanna include this under the Doge stuff, but, earlier today, the, state department officially notified congress of the closing of USAID. Marco Rubio, state department has officially notified congress that the US Agency for International Development, USAID, has been dissolved, and the remaining operations of the agency will be run by the state department itself.
According to, United Press International, the state department officially told Congress that USAID was dissolved on Friday. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement that, today, the Department of State and the US Agency have notified Congress of their intent to undertake a reorganization that would involve realigning certain USAID functions to the department by 07/01/2025 and discontinuing the remaining USAID functions that do not align with administration priorities. So that is great news. Great news. He went on to say the the transfer will significantly enhance efficiency, accountability, uniformity, and strategic impact in delivering foreign assistance programs, allowing our nation and president to speak with one voice in foreign affairs.
It will also, obviate the need for USAID to continue operating as an independent establishment. All non statutory positions at USAID will be eliminated as part of the agency getting dissolved, the memo, had added. So that's that's great. Great. Great. Promise kept. Right? Promise made. Promise kept. Alright, let's see, on to the next tier. Well, at the the the end of all of that, we find this wonderful piece here that I'm going to play for you. So National Pulse data, historically high number of Americans say country on the right track under Trump. Several recent public opinion polls show a historically high number of Americans think the country is on the right track.
A recent NBC poll shows 44% of respondents saying the country is headed in the right direction, the highest number recorded since 02/2024. Ameris poll shows 45% saying we're on the right track, the highest number since 02/2009. So let's take a look at the, let's take a look at CNN having to, having to, talk about this. Where is it? I will find it. Just a moment. There we go.
[01:16:47] Unknown:
CNN. Let's take a look at the percentage of the country who say that we're on the right track. It's actually a very high percentage when you compare it to some historical numbers. What are we talking about? According to Maris, forty five percent say that we're on the right track. That's the second highest that Maris has measured since 02/2009. How about NBC News? Forty four percent. That's the highest since 02/2004. The bottom line is the percentage of Americans who say we're on the right track is through the roof. And if you were to compare it to when presidents have historically been reelected, of course, Trump is not constitutionally eligible to run for reelection, but I think it sort of puts it in perspective. 42% of the country says the country is on the right track when the incumbent party is reelected. And also keep in mind, back when Kamala Harris lost and Democrats were turned out of power, only about 27 to 28% of the country said the country is on the right track. The bottom line is right now, a much higher percentage of the country says we're on the right track.
[01:17:37] Unknown:
First of all, before I I I say what I was gonna say, did you just happen to notice the look on her face, the one that was on the left? She looked like she was sick to her stomach having to listen to this. I love watching CNN having to to to bite the bullet on this, and and and report on on these poll numbers. You know, not that you really take polls for for a lot, but, you know, you do have to pay attention to them to some degree. So just the look on her face was priceless to see how, like, thoroughly disgusted she looked at hearing these these positive numbers. And, the other thing too is is this this kind of dovetails back a little bit to what I was talking about just a few minutes ago, that the left took a beating because the American people were tired of being told that they were, racists. The American people took, were got tired of being told that they were, misogynistic.
They were tired of, the American people are tired of having their their culture and their history rewritten, and they were tired of this woke nonsense. They were tired of this this this trans ideology. The, you know, they were tired of of drag queen story hour. They were tired of, you know, all of that stuff. I mean, all of that stuff compounded, compounded, compounded, and then and plus the, you know, just just the just the the overall hate that comes out of the left. The American people had enough and gave this administration, this president, a mandate to turn things around, and he's doing that every single day. There isn't a day that goes by that Donald Trump doesn't do something that he said he was going to do in the course of his campaign.
Promises made, promises kept. That's the whole thing with his administration, and that's and that's why the the the country is happy. That's why the country is, trending in a positive direction. That's why people feel the way they feel about the administration, about the direction the country is going, because they're seeing action. They're seeing people speaking up on behalf of America, and American interests, and American culture, and America the American people are being put first, and that is what we all voted for.
That is what the majority of this country voted for. Promises made, promises kept. I I don't know how else to say it, and I'm gonna I can't know. It's like a broken record, but that's what that's what it is. It's it's promises made, promises kept. Well, we're gonna talk a little bit, about immigration stuff because, you know, my my favorite guy is is in here. So we're gonna we're gonna cover that really quickly. So we all remember, the the radical leftist mayor of, Boston when she said she wouldn't cooperate with, with immigration and customs enforcement, at a at a recent hearing that they had at at the at the on Capitol Hill.
But even though she said that, and even though she said that she wouldn't cooperate, and even though she said that she wouldn't allow it, ICE rounded up hundreds of dangerous criminals, dangerous migrants, regardless of of her position and her stance on it. Fox News reported, or posted rather, on March 24, new, ICE Boston announces that 205 of the 370 plus illegal aliens they arrested in major operation in Massachusetts have serious criminal convictions or charges. They were all at large arrests, meaning they were wandering the streets of Massachusetts. So not only were they wandering the streets of Massachusetts, they were also, you know, more likely than not receiving taxpayer benefits.
Previously deported Dominican illegal alien charged with fentanyl, trafficking arrested in the sanctuary city of Boston. Previously deported Honduran alien convicted of child rape rape arrested in Salem. Two Brazilians wanted for murder in their home countries arrested in Lowell and Milford. Guatemalan alien charged with rape of a minor released by the New Bedford District Court without ICE detainer being honored, arrested in New Bedford. Dominican alien, wanted for homicide, arrested in Dorchester. Brazilian alien charged with manslaughter, arrested in Worcester. Brazilian fugitive who who failed fled serving okay. Sorry. Brazilian fugitive who failed fled, serving murder sentence in Brazil arrested in Marlborough.
Previously deported Salvadorian eighteenth Street gang member arrested in Wakefield. Previously deported Jamaican alien convicted of armed robbery, possession of a firearm, and assault arrested in Pittsfield. Brazilian alien wanted in Brazil for drug trafficking arrested in West Yarmouth. So, ICE Boston also seized over five kilos of fentanyl or the equiv or the equivalent of two million doses, lethal doses. Remember, with fentanyl, just a pinhead amount is fatal. Patricia Hyde, the acting field office director of ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations in Boston said the Commonwealth is a safer place for our residents to live because, because of ICE and our federal law enforcement partners arresting, hundreds of alien offenders and remove them from the streets of Massachusetts.
So that's this is, this is, of course, you know, what we wanted. Alright? Mayor Wu, the, the mayor of Boston, has said more than once that Boston's local law enforcement would not assist federal authorities enforcing America's immigration laws, repeating her defiance again this week. Trump's borders are, however, Tom Homan, bashed Wu saying, I made a promise at CPAC that I was gonna I was going to Boston after reading about numerous illegal alien child rapists walking the streets of Boston. ICE had to find and arrest these illegal alien rapists because Massachusetts and Boston are sanctuaries that refuse to cooperate with ICE.
They would rather release these animals back into the community rather than honor ICE detainers and notify ICE when they are scheduled to be released. Well, that's the Democratic Party for you. That's what they are.
[01:24:20] Unknown:
Alright.
[01:24:30] Unknown:
Here's, who do we got here? Here's Pam Bondi. As soon as I could find it. My clips are not in order again. Alright. So here's, here's Pam Bondi on talking about the arrest of, because this is big too. This is, in in in Virginia. The FBI arrested a top leader of MS thirteen in Woodbridge, Virginia. 20 4 year old suspect who has not yet been named, was taken into custody in Woodbridge, Virginia, just south of Washington DC. He is reportedly one of the top three leaders of the gang in the country. Attorney General Pam Bondi, who watched the arrest from nearby tactical operations center, told the outlet, they executed a clean safe operation and got the bad guys in custody. And thanks to the FBI, we got the worst of the worst of the MS thirteen off the street this morning.
Let's take a look.
[01:25:38] Unknown:
We have been out since about 04:30 this morning. The great men and women of law enforcement have been working on this operation for days and days and probably weeks. This morning early this morning, one of the top leaders of MS thirteen was apprehended. He was the leader for the East Coast, 1 of the top three in the entire country. Right here in Virginia, living half an hour outside of Washington DC. He is an illegal alien from El Salvador, and he will not be living in our country much longer. He's in custody this morning, one of the top leaders right here near our nation's capital.
I just cannot thank governor Youngkin enough for his leadership in this effort. This has been a joint effort with state and local agencies. FBI director Patel, thank you so much.
[01:26:42] Unknown:
And then, Glenn Youngkin, the governor of Virginia, also at the press conference.
[01:26:48] Unknown:
What this task force over the course of the last four weeks represents is the model. The model of federal resources, stately resources, and local resources coming together in order to eradicate the drug and terrorist networks that exist. And I use the word terrorist because the illegal drug gangs, MS thirteen, Trende Aragua, they are international terrorist organizations, and they are resident right here. The resident across the country. And it requires this kind of task force, this collaboration of Virginia resources, our great Virginia state police led by colonel Hanley, our department of corrections led by judge Chad Dotson, along with our leadership at the administration level led by by secretary Terry Cole and our attorney general Jason Miyares to come together with tremendous resources from the federal government. And systematically over the last four weeks, we have gone to work.
Gone to work untangling, gone to work putting together the cases and arresting these horrific criminals, these criminals that live in our neighborhoods. The arrest this morning was in Dale City in Prince William County, right here in Northern Virginia, 1 of the best areas in America, and it was one of the top leaders of MS thirteen living here.
[01:28:20] Unknown:
So that's great news. Absolutely great news. And, you know, you gotta give Cash Patel, you gotta give you gotta give Ice, you gotta give Tom Holman, you gotta give these guys all the credit that you can possibly give them. You know, Pam Bondi, you know, this is good stuff. You know, and, you know, they need a boost right now. I think I think Pam Bondi is a little bit, in over her head, but, I think the this is this is stuff that is, that that is is just great news. To just to know. And just but just think about this for a second, because I lost my train of thought for a moment. But just think about this for a second. This this guy is one of the top MS thirteen leaders in the East Coast Of The United States at at 24 years old. And I know that when you when you, you know, you're involved in gangs like this, it's not always the, you know, you know, 24 years old is not always considered young. You know, you you you're, you know, living by the seat of your pants all the time.
But, but this guy, 24 years old, one of the top leaders of MS thirteen, was caught just outside of Washington DC. This guy could have been apprehended at any time. He could have been picked up at any time by the previous administration, but they refused to do it. Refused to do it. And why is that? I mean, that's a question I'd like to I'd I would love to have an answer to. Why wouldn't the previous administration want to pick up these people, detain these people? Why did they want them roaming around the country unfettered? Why is that?
It's an answer I'd like to have. And then we also have here in, in, in Houston. Venezuelan migrant arrested for mass shooting in Houston. Six people injured when suspect opened fire on attack on a packed Texas nightclub this week. Ice ice hold on Venezuelan subject indicating he may be in The US illegally. A Venezuelan suspect who may be in the country illegally is facing a slew of charges following a mass shooting in Texas that injured six people, including four who were gravely wounded according to authorities. Incident unfolded around 3AM on Sunday in Houston. Investigators believe Jose Miguel Briseno, twenty five, discharged a firearm to a packed nightclub called Latina's Sports Bar following a possible confrontation with another patron or employee.
Six people were struck by gunfire of victims, both male and female, ranging from 21 to 52. Four of the victims remain in critical condition as of Wednesday, according to the Houston police, which, released surveillance images of the suspect. Let's go to let's see. Do we have that? Here you go. Two male suspects are sought for the shooting. And we're gonna have that clip in a second here. Let's pull that up. Number 15.
[01:32:06] Unknown:
Good morning. I'm assistant chief James Skelton, Houston Police Department. I have with me Lieutenant Harelica, who's our night commander for Houston Police Department. At approximately 03:00 this morning, HPD dispatch received a call in regards to multiple people shot at Latina Sports Bar, which is located at 6419 Hillcroft. The establishment behind me is a true after hours club, something that we are trying to target in this city. So our dispatch received a call about individual shot upon arrival. Officers were met by the Houston Fire Department where three individuals who had been shot were transported to a local hospital.
Additionally, three other three other individuals were transported by private vehicle to hospitals. Currently, we have four individuals that are critical. They're in surgery at this time. I don't have any other information. We have officers at the hospital checking on their welfare. Other than that, this is what we have. We have our, major assaults investigators here that will comb through the scene and find any suspect clues. We do have some video, which is good. We're looking for a black Toyota Camry or Corolla with two suspects in it, both Hispanic males.
We know that, this is more of an isolated attack. So once we find out more information, we will release that. That's currently what we have at this scene. Once again, like I said, establishments like this that harbor within our city contributed crime. So Houston Police Department, we are targeting these locations, and we're gonna shut them down because it harbors the DWIs and the assaults, and this is exactly what we saw here tonight. So I'll take any questions from you at this time.
[01:33:47] Unknown:
You said you believe this is isolated in nature. Do you believe that because these people knew each other, had some type of preexisting issue with each other?
[01:33:57] Unknown:
Sure. Right now, that is under investigation. That's what it looks like from what we've learned. But once we find additional information, we will release that. And this being an after hours club, that means just the particulars, they don't have a license or they have a license, but not to be open past due. Well, so they may have a license of some type. Right? And I'm I don't have that information. However, they are serving alcohol after 02:00 in the morning, which is against the law. So we will conduct an investigation on that also.
[01:34:25] Unknown:
Were you guys able to run into any witnesses that were cooperative to help get information about what happened? Sure. Our investigators are working with some now to help us put all the puzzles together.
[01:34:36] Unknown:
All victims were male? Yes. They were.
[01:34:41] Unknown:
Any other questions? Any other questions? Was the shooting inside or outside?
[01:34:44] Unknown:
Right now, that is under investigation. It looks like it was from the outside.
[01:34:49] Unknown:
Do you know about how many people were in the area when this happened? I mean, it's three in the morning, but still It's three in the morning.
[01:34:57] Unknown:
I can tell you that this location was pretty packed at 03:00 in the morning. And like I said, this is what harbors in our communities, packed clubs when they're supposed to be closed serving alcohol.
[01:35:13] Unknown:
Alright. So yet another illegal involved in another crime right here in Texas. One thing we are thankful for though is that he has been arrested, he's in custody, and he's on an ice hold. And, we are just gonna, you know, hope and pray that, that that ICE takes gets him out of the country as quickly as possible. He gets deported. But despite the bad news such as that, you know, it was a good week as far as immigration goes, in the country about the the the, the illegals. And, one of the my favorite characters in the administration, of course, as you know, is Tom Homan. And, Tom Homan I'm gonna share the screen here because I didn't pull the audio clip. But Tom Homan hilariously spikes the football after massive success with illegal migrant arrests.
Alright. Tom Homan's having the time of his life. Everyone loves to see it. Yes. We do. America's best ever borders are Has a lot of victories to celebrate, especially recently. My colleague, Jennifer, so on and so forth. Homan is in the business of rounding up and deporting, illegal immigrants and business is good. The Biden administration has allowed so many violent criminals and drug traffickers that home and can kick over any given rock and find a few hiding underneath. Well, he appeared on, he appeared on, Fox News to talk about how the days of catch and release are gone and that deportation will happen immediately upon capture. This includes sending people to prisons like Gitmo in in El Salvador. He called president Trump a game changer, where, there's still a lot of work to be done. The team Trump put together is doing outstanding.
[01:37:09] Unknown:
Alright. So I think it's gonna open up a lot of eyes. I think, illegal aliens, most vulnerable, are not gonna spend their life savings to hand it to a criminal cartel to come to United States knowing we ended catching a leash. You're not gonna be released in United States. You're gonna be you're gonna be deported immediately. And, as the secretary said, we got a lot of tools in toolbox. El Salvador prison is one. We got Gitmo. We got other countries. So for those countries who push back on taking their criminal, nationals back, We'll send them to another country. We got we got a lot of tools in this toolbox. Again, president Trump's a game changer. We got, illiberal immigration on board down 96% because of the policies of the Trump administration, and we got, like I say, record number of criminals. We still got a lot a lot more to do in the interior, but we got the right team put together. This is this is, like, the greatest team I've seen in my over forty years serving as a a special agent or a mortgage agent. I never see a team this serious about making this country safe. We got a great president. He's got a great team. So I wake up every day like a kid in the candy shop, getting ready to go to work, and when I know we're making a difference every day.
[01:38:13] Unknown:
And you could tell too. You could tell he feels like a kid in the candy shop. You look you look at his face. He's happy. He's, you know, I like to see that. I like Tom Homan. I I would love to have seen him as the the AG, to be honest with you. I think that would have been hilarious. But, but, really, the the just doing a fantastic job. The agency told Newsweek that, ICE gave them the number of deportations so far while it well, while it's a lot, Holman is right. There's a lot more to do. The agency told Newsweek that it had removed 28,319 people from The US interior between January 20 and March 11 averaged to about 3,887 per week or 555 a day. Wow. That's that's good.
When the figure is taken as just those immigrants obtained by ICE agents, Trump would be outpacing Biden's removal numbers. However, this is just a deportation performed by ICE's isn't considering self deportations currently ongoing, nor does it include the captures happening at the border itself. Moreover, if you have to consider these deportations are made up mostly of major criminals, meaning that even to these thousands of people gone is making America far safer. And, can't say any better than that. Alright. Let's see. What else?
Well, the let let me I was I was gonna save this for the last piece, because it it's a it's a local story. It it has to do with, it has to do with here in Eagle Pass, or should I do the state speaker? Let me let me do this, the Eagle Pass One. Alright. So, Eagle Pass. Authorities in Texas apprehended a pair of, illegal aliens who apparently used high-tech gear to cross there we go. Illegals in wet suits caught sneaking across Rio Grande using water propulsion apparatus, as you can see it right there in the picture. Authorities in Texas apprehended a pair of illegal aliens who apparently used high-tech gear to cross the Rio Grande this week. Eagle Pass Police Department issued a press release detailing a bus that, unfolded on Thursday in a residential neighborhood.
EPPD was alerted about men trying to hide under a bridge on the border river. Officers encountered two males who were discovered to be illegal aliens from Mexico and Guatemala. And this is the press release right here. As a result of our collaborative efforts with our community, a vigilant citizen, of Eagle Pass reported two suspicious subjects in a residential neighborhood south of Eagle Pass. In South Eagle Pass, e p EPPD patrol officer immediately responded and, apprehended them. When apprehended, the two males were wearing full length wetsuits used for scuba diving, and each was in possession of an invalid water propuls of an individual water propulsion apparatus, with what could to what can only be assumed was to navigate through the treacherous waters of the Rio Grande. Legal's returned over to, the US border patrol.
Alright. So good work on, the Eagle Pass Police Department. Alright. And then this this last one, this is this is just a an example of a disgusting a disgusting human being. And, folks, this is the left. This is the Democratic party. State house speaker turns killing the unborn into a cost saving scheme, gruesomely insists on promoting abortion because live births are more expensive. Prominent lawmaker in the leftist state of Colorado has turned gruesome in her demands that the state promote abortion. She's insisting that the killing of unborn children is better for the state because births are more expensive.
Julie McCleskey, Colorado Democrat and extremist on abortion, said births will not occur because abortions happened instead. A birth is more expensive than an abortion. The savings comes the savings comes in Medicaid births that will not occur. She's the speaker of the Colorado House and continued savings from averted births outweigh the cost of covering reproductive health care for all Coloradans.
[01:42:24] Unknown:
Like, I don't even wanna play this, but I'm going to. That savings comes from the averted births that will not occur because abortions, happened instead. So a birth is more expensive than an abortion. So the savings comes in Medicaid births that will not occur. This bill will actually decrease costs for our health care policy and financing department, our Medicaid expenditures in both this year and out year out years as the savings from averted births outweigh the cost of covering reproductive health care for all Coloradans. This bill requires all abortion services to be state funded. The bill requires an increase to general fund of 1,500,000.0 to cover the cost for care. But, again, a reminder that, ultimately, the state will see a cost savings, and, ultimately, it is, truly an honor to be here carrying this bill alongside rep Garcia, and I ask for your support of senate bill one eighty three.
[01:43:31] Unknown:
So she's absolutely honored to be there, to present this bill. This is a disgusting human being. She would the report explained she reduced pregnancy and life to a price tag, including that those children should just die because it's cheaper. Gateway Pundit pointed out, anyone who looks at children, anyone who looks at children and childbirth in such a cold calculating terms has truly gone down an evil path. I could not agree any more than that. But folks, this is the left. This is the Democrats. This is who they are, folks. This is who they are.
It it is a the Democratic party is a culture of death, violence, disgusting, absolutely disgusting human beings. I hate to end the show on a on a on a down note like that, but but folks, I mean, do do we care so little about life that we keep putting people like this in office? Is disgusting. I I I I can't come up with a better word for it, or another word for it, but it it is it is it is evil. It is demonic, satanic, disgusting, that you would equate the life of a child with a price tag. You put a price tag in the life of a child. The life of another human being, you put a price tag on it.
Absolutely disgusting. And again, I hate to end the show on a note like that. Let Let me see if I can find something funny for us. And I I hear Charlie at the door, letting me know that it's it's time to say goodnight, but, like I said, I don't wanna end I don't wanna end on that kind of a note. Let's see what we could find here really quick. Oh, Bill Maher has been invited to the White House. Do we know that? And, Donald Trump, tapped Sarah Carter to be the next drug czar. I don't think we need all these czars, though. Well, I'm not gonna take too much time scrolling through trying to find, something funnier. But, you know, folks, the the the great thing is is that, you know, the right embraces a life.
Here we go. We're gonna do this. This is gonna be good. Alright. Let me, let me screen share this. K. We're gonna get up on here with True Social. Here we go. This is how we'll run the show tonight, folks.
[01:47:46] Unknown:
