0:06
Speaker 2: as President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill officially passes. Congratulations
0:13
Speaker 2: to President Donald Trump. And what is in this bill
0:16
Speaker 2: is major things that is going to have a big
0:18
Speaker 2: impact on the economy. For example, no tax on tips,
0:23
Speaker 2: no tax on overtime, one hundred and seventy five billion
0:28
Speaker 2: for deportations, as well as to finish the wall construction,
0:32
Speaker 2: tax relief for seniors, and making his twenty seventeen tax
0:37
Speaker 2: cuts permanent. It was announced by the Speaker of the House,
0:41
Speaker 2: and here's what he had to say.
0:42
Speaker 1: And you'll hear the appause from.
0:44
Speaker 3: The members of the Chamber on this vote, the Yaser
0:47
Speaker 3: two hundred and fifteen, the Naser two hundred and fourteen,
0:51
Speaker 3: with one answering present, the bill is passed.
1:02
Speaker 1: You left there. You will here.
1:10
Speaker 2: The chance of USA continue, the crapping continue. The White
1:14
Speaker 2: House coming out with a statement saying this quote, the
1:18
Speaker 2: One Big Beautiful Bill has passed the House of Representatives.
1:22
Speaker 2: This is arguably the most significant piece of legislation that
1:26
Speaker 2: will ever be signed in the history of the country,
1:28
Speaker 2: that coming from President Donald J.
1:30
Speaker 1: Trump.
1:31
Speaker 2: He then put out a true social statement, saying this
1:34
Speaker 2: the one big, beautiful bill is passed, and not only
1:37
Speaker 2: is it arguably the most significant piece of legislation that
1:40
Speaker 2: will ever be signed in the history of our country,
1:42
Speaker 2: but the bill includes massive tax cuts, no tax on tips,
1:46
Speaker 2: no tax on overtime, the tax deductions when you purchase
1:50
Speaker 2: an American made vehicle, along with strong border security measures,
1:54
Speaker 2: pay raises for our ice and border patrol agents, funding
1:58
Speaker 2: for the Golden Dome, Trump's savings, accounts for newborn babies,
2:03
Speaker 2: and much more. Great job by Speaker Mike Johnson and
2:06
Speaker 2: the House leadership. Trump went on to say, and thank
2:09
Speaker 2: you to every Republican who voted yes on this historic bill.
2:13
Speaker 2: Now it's time for our friends in the United States
2:17
Speaker 2: Senate to get to work and send.
2:19
Speaker 1: This bill to my desk as soon as possible.
2:21
Speaker 2: There's no time to waste. The Democrats have lost control
2:24
Speaker 2: of themselves and are aimlessly wandering around showing no confidence,
2:28
Speaker 2: grit or determination. They have forgotten their landslide losses in
2:32
Speaker 2: the President's election and are warped in the past, hoping
2:36
Speaker 2: someday to revive open borders for the world's criminals to
2:40
Speaker 2: be able to pour into our country. Men to be
2:43
Speaker 2: able to play in women's sports and transgender for everybody.
2:47
Speaker 1: They don't realize that.
2:48
Speaker 2: These things and so many more like them, will never
2:52
Speaker 2: happen again.
2:53
Speaker 1: That is the President's statement on all of this.
2:56
Speaker 2: Now, let's dive into some of the big things that
2:57
Speaker 2: are going to affect you the most and have a
3:00
Speaker 2: major impact on our economy. Number one is the no
3:03
Speaker 2: tax on tips in overtime.
3:05
Speaker 1: What is this going to do. It's going to increase
3:07
Speaker 1: take home pay.
3:09
Speaker 2: Workers in the service industries and hourly jobs are going
3:13
Speaker 2: to benefit immediately. Why Because they're going to be able
3:16
Speaker 2: to keep one hundred percent of their tips in overtime.
3:19
Speaker 2: That's going to boost income without increasing labor costs for
3:24
Speaker 2: the employers. So this is a win win for not
3:27
Speaker 2: only those that are hiring and the employers, but also
3:31
Speaker 2: for the employees. Another way of looking at it is
3:33
Speaker 2: this it's a great way to have an instant pay
3:36
Speaker 2: raise without it actually negatively hurting the economy or small businesses.
3:41
Speaker 2: They're also going to simplify the tax filings. This is
3:45
Speaker 2: huge because it allowed for more Americans to be able
3:48
Speaker 2: to just get their tax dollars back quickly, and it
3:51
Speaker 2: will reduce complexity for both employees and the irs, lowering
3:54
Speaker 2: the cost to run a business.
3:56
Speaker 1: Specifically for employers.
3:59
Speaker 2: There's also longer incentives for working extra hours or in
4:03
Speaker 2: another way of putting it, working extra hard to provide
4:06
Speaker 2: for yourself and your family. It's encouraging productivity and rewarding
4:11
Speaker 2: productivity is how the White House described it, and helping
4:14
Speaker 2: businesses meet demand with more willing to work in those
4:18
Speaker 2: overtime hours. Now, let's move from there to the one
4:22
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy five billion dollars for deportations as well
4:26
Speaker 2: as the border wall funding. You know that border security
4:29
Speaker 2: is one of the top priorities of President Donald Trump. Well,
4:32
Speaker 2: now we have the money needed, as Tom Homan describe it,
4:35
Speaker 2: to get the job done. And what the border security
4:39
Speaker 2: is going to do with this money is well, it's
4:41
Speaker 2: going to have the issue of reinforcement. It will not
4:44
Speaker 2: only they say one, boost enforcement, but also technology and
4:48
Speaker 2: infrastructure at the southern border, which supporters are arguing will
4:52
Speaker 2: reduce illegal immigration even more. It's also going to help
4:55
Speaker 2: stop drug trafficking in the feedanl trade and the multi
4:59
Speaker 2: billion do industry of human smuggling, So that is again
5:03
Speaker 2: part of this bill. It will also have as they
5:06
Speaker 2: described it as a deterrent effect. A large scale investment
5:09
Speaker 2: is sitting a very strong signal that immigration laws are
5:13
Speaker 2: actually going to be enforced and strictly enforced at that.
5:17
Speaker 2: We know this from the Trump administration. There's also what
5:20
Speaker 2: they describe as job protection as well from this money
5:24
Speaker 2: that will be spent. Why, well, it is seen by
5:27
Speaker 2: the Trump administration as a way to quote protect low
5:30
Speaker 2: skilled American jobs from being undercut by undocumented labor and
5:36
Speaker 2: millions and millions of them with a race to the
5:38
Speaker 2: bottom that will help more Americans than ever before.
5:41
Speaker 1: And then let's talk about seniors for a second.
5:44
Speaker 2: This is something else that the President was really focused on.
5:47
Speaker 2: He wants her to be real tax relief for our
5:50
Speaker 2: seniors that are just trying to live a comfortable retirement
5:53
Speaker 2: without having to worry every single month. Well, higher disposable income.
5:58
Speaker 2: Why because it reduces the financial burden on retirees, especially
6:02
Speaker 2: those living unfixed incomes. There's also greater economic participation, the
6:06
Speaker 2: White House says, as seniors may have more freedom to spend,
6:09
Speaker 2: invest or support family members because of the tax relief
6:13
Speaker 2: that they're specifically putting in there for as senior citizens
6:17
Speaker 2: and then there's also the healthcare costs buffer, which is
6:20
Speaker 2: the number one reason why seniors have financial problems later
6:23
Speaker 2: than life. It is easier, they say, now, to manage
6:26
Speaker 2: out of pocket medical expenses or rising living costs. So
6:31
Speaker 2: they're trying to protect seniors in this country.
6:34
Speaker 1: Now.
6:35
Speaker 2: Part of this bill, and the big part, which is
6:37
Speaker 2: going to be monumental, is making the twenty seventeen Trump
6:41
Speaker 2: tax cuts permanent. This is giving certainty for families and
6:47
Speaker 2: for businesses. The long term planning is easier when the
6:51
Speaker 2: tax rates are locked in, and what the President said
6:54
Speaker 2: is you're not going to be forgotten.
6:55
Speaker 1: These tax rates were important to lock in.
6:58
Speaker 2: Otherwise we're going to have the largest tax cut increase
7:00
Speaker 2: in our country's history. It was going to decimate the
7:03
Speaker 2: middle class, and it was going to be brutal on
7:05
Speaker 2: our not only on our economy, but also those at
7:08
Speaker 2: higher This is now going to be locked in with
7:11
Speaker 2: as twenty seventeen rates that you're used to. It's also
7:14
Speaker 2: going to lower the individual tax rates that have continued
7:18
Speaker 2: for middle class earners to keep more of their paycheck.
7:22
Speaker 2: So if you're a middle class American, you're going to
7:24
Speaker 2: keep more of your money because of this big beautiful bill.
7:28
Speaker 1: There's also major support for small businesses.
7:32
Speaker 2: Pass Through entities like LLCs and escorps are going to
7:35
Speaker 2: continue to benefit, the White House says, from deductions spurring
7:39
Speaker 2: entrepreneurship and growth. There's also investment and growth incentives as well.
7:45
Speaker 2: Lower tax as the White House says on capital gains
7:48
Speaker 2: and corporate income are seen as pro business, potentially driving
7:52
Speaker 2: job creation and market performance to new levels. Now, the
7:57
Speaker 2: overall positives on this are this economic boost. There's going
8:01
Speaker 2: to be more money in consumers pockets that can lead
8:04
Speaker 2: to higher spending and economic activity.
8:06
Speaker 1: It is a pro worker bill.
8:09
Speaker 2: The bill positions itself as rewarding hard works, tips, overtime,
8:13
Speaker 2: and protecting American jobs. And then there's the long term
8:17
Speaker 2: structural changes. By locking in the tax policy and beefing
8:22
Speaker 2: up immigration enforcement, the White House us this is fulfilling
8:26
Speaker 2: their long promise reforms that put American workers first, American
8:30
Speaker 2: middle class workers first, and making sure they're not under
8:34
Speaker 2: being undercut by illegal immigrants. This is, in fact, a
8:38
Speaker 2: big beautiful bill.
8:40
Speaker 1: Now.
8:41
Speaker 2: Speaker Johnson just released a statement on the House passage
8:43
Speaker 2: of the one Big Beautiful Bill. You heard him earlier,
8:47
Speaker 2: but I want you to hear what he said quote.
8:48
Speaker 2: The media and the Democrats have consistently dismissed any possibility
8:53
Speaker 2: of House Republicans succeeding in our mission to an act
8:55
Speaker 2: President Trump's America First Agenda.
8:58
Speaker 1: Once again, they have been proven wrong.
9:00
Speaker 2: Today, the House has passed generational nation shaping legislation that
9:05
Speaker 2: reduces spending permanently, lowers taxes for families and job creators,
9:10
Speaker 2: secures the border, unleashes American energy dominance, restores peace through strength,
9:16
Speaker 2: and makes government work more efficient and effective for all Americans.
9:21
Speaker 2: House Democrats vote against all of it, which clearly proves
9:24
Speaker 2: they want tax hikes on their constituents, open borders.
9:28
Speaker 1: And medicaid for legal immigrants.
9:30
Speaker 2: We look forward to the Senate's timely consideration of this
9:33
Speaker 2: once in a generation legislation and stand ready to continue
9:37
Speaker 2: our work together to deliver the one big, beautiful bill
9:41
Speaker 2: to the President's desk that coming from Speaker Johnson.
9:45
Speaker 1: Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile real quick.
9:47
Speaker 2: If you've got a cell phone and your cell phone
9:50
Speaker 2: is not with Patriot Mobile, then the question I got
9:53
Speaker 2: to ask you is why why have you not made
9:56
Speaker 2: the switch? Well, you should make the switch and The
9:59
Speaker 2: deal is really easy. You get cutting edge technology. Switching
10:04
Speaker 2: has never been easier. There's no store visits, no hassles.
10:07
Speaker 2: You get to keep your same phone number you have
10:09
Speaker 2: right now. You get to keep your same phone you've
10:11
Speaker 2: got now or upgrade to a new one. And they
10:13
Speaker 2: have a one hundred percent US based team that can
10:16
Speaker 2: activate you literally in minutes. The other thing that I
10:19
Speaker 2: love about Patriot Mobile is this they have access to
10:23
Speaker 2: all three major networks, meaning you get exceptional nationwide coverage.
10:28
Speaker 2: I use Patriot Mobile and half for years. They can
10:31
Speaker 2: even put a second number on a different network on
10:35
Speaker 2: your phone. It's like carrying two phones in one. You
10:38
Speaker 2: can have a work number and a personal number. It's amazing.
10:42
Speaker 2: They have unlimited data plans, mobile hotspots, international roaming, Internet
10:47
Speaker 2: on the go devices, and home internet backup as well.
10:51
Speaker 2: You can get all of this from Patriot Mobile. So
10:54
Speaker 2: why are you waiting? Make the switch today? And by
10:58
Speaker 2: the way, when you pay your bill, you know that
11:00
Speaker 2: about five percent of that bill every month is going
11:02
Speaker 2: back to support conservative causes.
11:05
Speaker 1: Causes that stand.
11:06
Speaker 2: For our First and or Second Amendment rights, the rights
11:09
Speaker 2: of unborn children, and they stand with our veterans, our
11:12
Speaker 2: first responders, our police and firemen, are EMTs and our
11:16
Speaker 2: wounded warriors. So make a difference with every call you make.
11:19
Speaker 2: So right now, go to Patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson
11:25
Speaker 2: or call them nine to seven to two Patriot. You're
11:28
Speaker 2: going to get a free month of service with the
11:30
Speaker 2: promo code ferguson. So switch to Patriot Mobile and make
11:33
Speaker 2: a difference with every call you make. Patriot Mobile dot
11:36
Speaker 2: com slash ferguson or nine to seven to two Patriot. Now,
11:40
Speaker 2: there was some controversy, by the way, with this bill,
11:43
Speaker 2: with two Republicans that were holdouts. You had Congressman Massing
11:48
Speaker 2: and Congressman Davison.
11:50
Speaker 4: Uh.
11:50
Speaker 2: The White House Press Sancretary was asked about those two
11:53
Speaker 2: Republicans not voting in favor of the big beautiful bill.
11:57
Speaker 2: It was pretty clear that Donald Trump has a tar
12:00
Speaker 2: get on these two congressmen. Now, and here's what the
12:02
Speaker 2: White House had to say about it.
12:04
Speaker 5: You had two Republicans last night that voted against this bill, Congressman.
12:07
Speaker 1: Massey and Davidson. Does the President think that they should
12:10
Speaker 1: be primary?
12:11
Speaker 6: I believe he does, and I don't think he likes
12:13
Speaker 6: to see grandstanders in Congress. What's the alternative. I would
12:16
Speaker 6: ask those members of Congress. Did they want to see
12:18
Speaker 6: a tax hike? Did they want to see our country
12:20
Speaker 6: go bankrupt? That's the alternative by them trying to vote no.
12:24
Speaker 6: And the President believes the Republican Party needs to be unified,
12:27
Speaker 6: and the vast majority of Republicans clearly are and are
12:30
Speaker 6: listening to the President. They are trusting in President Trump
12:33
Speaker 6: as they should because there's a reason he's sitting in
12:36
Speaker 6: this oval office. It's because he's the unequivocal leader of
12:39
Speaker 6: the Republican Party, not just a president for Republicans, but
12:42
Speaker 6: all Americans. The President's approval rating is at an all
12:45
Speaker 6: time high right now because he knows how to deliver
12:49
Speaker 6: in Republicans like Thomas Massey and others should take note.
12:52
Speaker 1: Now.
12:53
Speaker 2: That was clearly the warning from the White House. Massey
12:56
Speaker 2: took to the floor of Congress and here is what
13:00
Speaker 2: I had to say about his reason for voting no.
13:03
Speaker 3: Listen carefully, jentlemen from Kentucky's recognized for ninety seconds.
13:09
Speaker 4: We'd love to stand here and tell the American people,
13:11
Speaker 4: we can cut your taxes and we can increase spending,
13:14
Speaker 4: and everything's going to be just fine, But I can't
13:17
Speaker 4: do that because I'm here to deliver a dosa reality.
13:21
Speaker 4: This bill dramatically increases deficits in the near term, but
13:25
Speaker 4: promises our government will be fiscally responsible five years from now.
13:29
Speaker 1: Where have we heard that before?
13:31
Speaker 4: How do you bind a future Congress to these promises?
13:34
Speaker 4: This bill is a debt bomb ticking. Congress can do
13:38
Speaker 4: funny math, fantasy math if it wants, but bond investors don't.
13:43
Speaker 4: And this week they sent us a message. Moodies downgraded
13:47
Speaker 4: our credit rating, and the bond investors who buy our
13:50
Speaker 4: debt and finance our debt demanded higher interest rates on
13:54
Speaker 4: the ten year note, the twenty year note, and the
13:56
Speaker 4: thirty year note. What does this mean? Very soon the
14:00
Speaker 4: government will be paying sixteen thousand dollars of interest interest
14:03
Speaker 4: a loan per us family.
14:06
Speaker 1: And what are we telling him?
14:08
Speaker 4: Instead of taking care of that problem, We're gonna give
14:10
Speaker 4: you a sixteen hundred dollars tax break. Under the taxing
14:15
Speaker 4: and spending levels in this bill, we're gonna rack up
14:18
Speaker 4: the author say, twenty trillion dollars of new debt over
14:22
Speaker 4: the next ten years. I'm telling you it's closer to
14:24
Speaker 4: thirty trillion dollars of new debt in the next ten years.
14:27
Speaker 4: Mister speaker, We're not rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic tonight.
14:33
Speaker 4: We're putting coal in the boiler and setting a course
14:36
Speaker 4: for the iceberg. If something is if something is beautiful,
14:43
Speaker 4: if something is beautiful, you don't do it after midnight.
14:47
Speaker 7: I pose this villain has expired.
14:50
Speaker 2: By the way, those that are clapping were the Democrats
14:53
Speaker 2: on the Democratic side of the aisle, Thomas Massey saying
14:57
Speaker 2: I stand here and tell the American be we can't
15:00
Speaker 2: your texts and increased spinning and everything will be fine.
15:03
Speaker 2: Digging in White House, making it clear we're more than
15:06
Speaker 2: happy to find somebody to primary you, and clearly the
15:09
Speaker 2: President's willing to roll up his sleeves and get involved
15:11
Speaker 2: in the primary part of all of this.
15:14
Speaker 1: Now, I also want to play for you.
15:15
Speaker 2: Steve Moore, he's an economist, you know him for Fox
15:17
Speaker 2: News Channel. He had something very interesting to say on
15:20
Speaker 2: Fox Today about this bill and what it means not
15:23
Speaker 2: only for the president but for the country.
15:25
Speaker 8: All Right, the House is passed Trump's big beautiful bill.
15:28
Speaker 8: It happened earlier today and now joining us with reaction
15:30
Speaker 8: Steve Moore, Unleashed Prosperity co founder, and Lou Bassanisee, a
15:33
Speaker 8: Prairie operating company's executive vice president of Marcus Strategy.
15:37
Speaker 1: Welcome to you both.
15:38
Speaker 8: First, Steve, your reaction to that.
15:41
Speaker 1: And where this goes next.
15:44
Speaker 5: Well, this was a huge, huge victory for Trump. I
15:47
Speaker 5: think there were really three heroes here. Obviously President Trump, who,
15:51
Speaker 5: as you know Sandra went over to the House and
15:54
Speaker 5: made the final pitch for this and got the final votes.
15:57
Speaker 5: And then Mike Johnson, who has almost impossible of course,
16:00
Speaker 5: he's the Speaker of the House. I don't know how
16:02
Speaker 5: he did it, but he somehow sits together two hundred
16:04
Speaker 5: and eighteen votes for this, and I think it was
16:07
Speaker 5: a one vote majority that they were able to get.
16:10
Speaker 1: It wouldn't have happened without him.
16:12
Speaker 5: And then I have to say, Chip Roy, who you
16:14
Speaker 5: may recall Sandra raised some objections to the bill last
16:17
Speaker 5: week and I hapen to agree with some of those objections,
16:20
Speaker 5: and you know what, they made it into a better bill.
16:23
Speaker 1: And so now this goes to the Senate.
16:24
Speaker 5: I think the Senate will act sometime before fourth of July.
16:28
Speaker 5: And I agree, we got to get this thing on
16:30
Speaker 5: the desk of the President as quickly as possible. I
16:33
Speaker 5: think it will be very positive for the economy and the
16:35
Speaker 5: stock market.
16:36
Speaker 2: You listen to seem Moore there in what he says,
16:39
Speaker 2: and he's absolutely right, Like this is going to have
16:41
Speaker 2: a huge impact on our economy.
16:43
Speaker 1: Everyone knows it, that's involved in it.
16:46
Speaker 2: The President had a really tough job here keeping this
16:49
Speaker 2: together with a slim margin in the House. He said
16:52
Speaker 2: that the other day when he was on Capitol Hill
16:53
Speaker 2: meeting with members of Congress, and this was his warning,
16:57
Speaker 2: by the way, on a couple holdouts at the time.
17:00
Speaker 9: Look, the alternative is a sixty eight percent tax increase,
17:04
Speaker 9: and you can blame the Democrats with that, Edwa or
17:07
Speaker 9: two Brinson, as we only have Waterton, but we have
17:10
Speaker 9: not tremendous support. But you'll have a sixty eight percent
17:15
Speaker 9: tax increase, or you'll get a massive tax increase. You'll
17:19
Speaker 9: get a tax cut the likes of which we've never
17:22
Speaker 9: had to book. This is bigger than any Ronald Reagan
17:25
Speaker 9: tax cut. It's even bigger than the tax cut that
17:29
Speaker 9: I gave because as you know.
17:30
Speaker 1: That's being extended an acreest.
17:32
Speaker 9: So this is the biggest tax cut in the history
17:34
Speaker 9: of our temetry, or you'll get a sixty eight percent
17:38
Speaker 9: tax increase.
17:39
Speaker 2: Now, when you think about the numbers the President just
17:41
Speaker 2: gave there, this was not only a huge success for
17:44
Speaker 2: the American people, but a moment where if it didn't happen,
17:50
Speaker 2: the taxes on everyday Americans were going to skyrocket. I
17:54
Speaker 2: also got to give a lot of credit here to
17:57
Speaker 2: Mike Johnson. Mike Johnson and what he he did to
18:01
Speaker 2: get this across the finish line. Hurting cats is the
18:04
Speaker 2: best way I can describe it.
18:06
Speaker 1: Is incredible.
18:07
Speaker 2: He could only lose a couple and sure enough he did,
18:10
Speaker 2: and he was able to do it with the President's help.
18:13
Speaker 2: But if you want to know who the biggest bad
18:15
Speaker 2: a is in Washington right now, it is no doubt
18:19
Speaker 2: that it's Speaker Johnson. Joe Kanca on Fox said this,
18:23
Speaker 2: take a listen.
18:24
Speaker 10: And right now, the MVP right in Washington for Donald
18:27
Speaker 10: Trump is Mike Johnson. Because he is hurting cats right
18:31
Speaker 10: where he has almost no majority, and he's been able
18:35
Speaker 10: to pass some things already. If he could get this
18:37
Speaker 10: thing through, get it to the Senate, get it through reconciliation,
18:40
Speaker 10: House and Senate kind of you know, go back and forth,
18:42
Speaker 10: and it gets to the President's desk and this thing passes,
18:45
Speaker 10: this big, beautiful bill with all these tax.
18:47
Speaker 1: Cuts that are in here.
18:48
Speaker 10: Democrats had nothing to run on in twenty twenty six.
18:52
Speaker 10: They can't run on foreign policy, they can't run on
18:54
Speaker 10: the border, and they can't run on the economy. So
18:56
Speaker 10: if that happens, trust me, Mike Johnson.
18:59
Speaker 1: Is your MVP right now.
19:00
Speaker 11: Yeah, well, he sounds pretty confident. We'll see what he does.
19:03
Speaker 1: He is the MVP he is, and he got this
19:06
Speaker 1: thing done.
19:06
Speaker 2: And for anyone that's been criticizing Mike Johnson, you're just wrong,
19:11
Speaker 2: all right, like you are just wrong.
19:13
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson did one hell of a job here.
19:17
Speaker 2: Steve Scalise also talking about this bill getting passed.
19:21
Speaker 1: Here is what he had to say.
19:22
Speaker 12: Track again, But we were never deterred when this bill
19:26
Speaker 12: could have failed ten times over. We said we were
19:30
Speaker 12: going to get this done and failure is not an option,
19:33
Speaker 12: and we meant it. We knew we were fighting for
19:36
Speaker 12: the families who had been struggling for way too long
19:39
Speaker 12: under the failed policies of Joe Biden and all the
19:43
Speaker 12: Democrats who did have control of Washington for too long.
19:46
Speaker 12: We watched higher interest rates and higher inflation and lower
19:50
Speaker 12: wages and a demise of the American dream that we
19:55
Speaker 12: knew should not be permanent but was only going to
19:58
Speaker 12: turn around if we passed a bill to get.
20:01
Speaker 1: America back on track.
20:03
Speaker 12: We knew we had to prevent a massive tax increase,
20:06
Speaker 12: so we put it in the bill. We knew we
20:08
Speaker 12: needed to secure America's border, as President Trump ran on
20:13
Speaker 12: all across this country and won the election.
20:15
Speaker 1: On and we put it in this bill.
20:19
Speaker 12: We ran on and said we would produce more American energy,
20:23
Speaker 12: and we.
20:23
Speaker 1: Put it in this bill.
20:26
Speaker 12: All the things that we knew we needed to do
20:28
Speaker 12: to root at waste, fraud and abuse, and government focus
20:32
Speaker 12: on those families who were struggling. All of that is
20:35
Speaker 12: in this one big, beautiful bill. And yes, now the
20:38
Speaker 12: House has come together and passed this bill against all odds,
20:43
Speaker 12: but we're still working on the rest of the process
20:47
Speaker 12: still goes to the Senate. Senate has a lot of
20:50
Speaker 12: work to do too. That's why we've been talking to
20:52
Speaker 12: the Senate for a long time. But it's their turn
20:55
Speaker 12: to take this bill and move forward. But I'll tell
20:58
Speaker 12: you none of this would be possible without the leadership
21:00
Speaker 12: with President Trump, who every step of the way not
21:04
Speaker 12: only laid out the vision, ran a campaign on this vision,
21:09
Speaker 12: but every step of the way too, said whatever you need,
21:12
Speaker 12: let me know.
21:14
Speaker 2: Steve Salice, the House Majority leader, saying whatever you need,
21:17
Speaker 2: We're on board.
21:18
Speaker 1: With this, backing the President.
21:20
Speaker 2: A major victory for America and American families. Well done
21:24
Speaker 2: by the Housekin's done. Now it's going to move on
21:26
Speaker 2: to the Senate. I want to move to another story,
21:30
Speaker 2: and this one is obviously a tragic story. A shooting
21:33
Speaker 2: that occurred outside the Capitol Jewish Museum in Washington, d C.
21:38
Speaker 2: I was literally in front of this building just a
21:41
Speaker 2: few days ago when I was in DC and had
21:44
Speaker 2: been to events there as well, which is I think
21:46
Speaker 2: the most surreal and shocking part of this anti Semitic killing.
21:51
Speaker 1: Clearly that's what it was.
21:52
Speaker 2: What's even more discussing is the fact that Democrats are
21:56
Speaker 2: refusing to condemn the deaths of these two Israelimy staff members.
22:01
Speaker 1: The couple had just.
22:03
Speaker 2: Attended a young diplomat's reception hosted by the American Jewish Committee.
22:10
Speaker 1: They were leaving the event around nine h eight pm Eastern.
22:14
Speaker 2: The suspect a thirty year old from Chicago approached a
22:18
Speaker 2: group of four individuals and opened fire with a handgun,
22:22
Speaker 2: faintly wounding two of those that he was targeting.
22:26
Speaker 1: Rodriguez.
22:27
Speaker 2: The shooter was observed pacing outside the museum prior to
22:31
Speaker 2: the attack, and after the shooting, he entered the museum
22:33
Speaker 2: appeared appearing distressed, leading bystanders to initially mistake him for
22:38
Speaker 2: a victim.
22:40
Speaker 1: He was even given water.
22:42
Speaker 2: And comforted until he revealed himself as this shooter, at
22:47
Speaker 2: which point he was attained by security personnel. Now, during
22:50
Speaker 2: the arrests, the individual shouted, free, Free Palestine.
22:56
Speaker 1: I did this for Gaza, is what he said. Now.
22:59
Speaker 2: The victims were a couple in their late twenties. They
23:03
Speaker 2: worked in the embassy's political department and in public diplomacy.
23:09
Speaker 2: They were actually planning to become engaged during an upcoming
23:12
Speaker 2: trip days away in Jerusalem, and apparently he had already
23:16
Speaker 2: bought the ring. Authorities are investigating the incident as a
23:20
Speaker 2: targeted act of violence with potential hate crimes implications, as
23:24
Speaker 2: it should.
23:25
Speaker 1: The FBI and local.
23:26
Speaker 2: Law enforcement are examining the man's background, including his online
23:30
Speaker 2: activities and any possible connections to extremist group. Now, the
23:34
Speaker 2: attack has widely been condemned by leaders in the United
23:37
Speaker 2: States and Israel. President Trump described the killings as based
23:41
Speaker 2: obviously on anti Semitism quote unquote, and called for an
23:45
Speaker 2: end to such hatred. Israel's Prime Minster net Yahoo also
23:50
Speaker 2: denounced the act, linking it to the rise of anti
23:53
Speaker 2: Semitic sentiment and ordering increased security at Israeli diplomatic missions worldwide. Now,
24:02
Speaker 2: this incident has also heightened concerns about the safety of
24:05
Speaker 2: Jewish communities and institutions in this country, as we are
24:09
Speaker 2: witnessing anti Semitic rhetoric and violence that is spilling out.
24:13
Speaker 2: What's even I think more damning to the Democratic Party
24:17
Speaker 2: and there should be no place for this in the
24:18
Speaker 2: Democratic Party. Yet there is is the fact that Elamo
24:22
Speaker 2: Mar of the Democratic Party refuse to condemn the killing
24:25
Speaker 2: of the Israeli diplomats. It is despicable, is how the
24:29
Speaker 2: White House describe it.
24:30
Speaker 1: Take a listen to this.
24:31
Speaker 11: I do you or President Trump have a message to
24:34
Speaker 11: politicians like Ilhan Omar who believe this morning explicitly avoided
24:38
Speaker 11: condemning this active terror.
24:40
Speaker 6: It's despicable and frankly, we have seen a rise in
24:45
Speaker 6: anti Semitic protests, of pro Hamas, protests of terrorist sympathizers.
24:53
Speaker 6: We saw them on our college campuses, and we've seen
24:56
Speaker 6: the Democrat Party turn a blind eye and in some
24:59
Speaker 6: cases actually embrace such anti Semitic illegal behavior. And that's
25:04
Speaker 6: why this administration has done more than any administration in
25:07
Speaker 6: history to crack down on anti Semitism. As you know,
25:10
Speaker 6: in January, when the President took office, he signed a
25:12
Speaker 6: new executive order to combat anti Semitism. He created a
25:15
Speaker 6: commission focused on doing just that. The Justice Department announced
25:19
Speaker 6: their task force as well. The Secretary of State Marco Rubio,
25:23
Speaker 6: has revoked thousands of student visas from campuses where these
25:27
Speaker 6: pro Palace pro Hamas, terrorist campus agitators and violent protests
25:34
Speaker 6: took place. And we've also withheld funding from those very
25:37
Speaker 6: campuses as well in an effort to combat anti semitism.
25:40
Speaker 6: So the President's made it very clear that such hatred
25:43
Speaker 6: will have no place in our country.
25:46
Speaker 2: I love how clear the White House is on this one.
25:48
Speaker 2: I also want to play for you, and we now
25:50
Speaker 2: have word. The FBI's investigating the DC shooting is an
25:53
Speaker 2: act of targeted violence, is how they've described it. So far,
25:56
Speaker 2: after this young Jewish couple is brutally murdered, and I
26:00
Speaker 2: want you to hear what was also said on CNN.
26:04
Speaker 1: CNN apparently their main worry isn't.
26:06
Speaker 2: The safety of Jews, it's how the backlash might affect
26:10
Speaker 2: anti Israel protesters. Yes, that's their actual angle on this
26:16
Speaker 2: and the FBI investigation. As they had a witness that
26:19
Speaker 2: was there. They had them on TV this morning, and
26:22
Speaker 2: again I want you to hear their narrative. It's very
26:25
Speaker 2: clear their main worry is not the safety of Jews.
26:30
Speaker 2: After two Jewish individuals, this couple was brutally murdered, they're
26:35
Speaker 2: worried how the backlash might affect anti Israel protesters, the
26:39
Speaker 2: same ones calling for the death of Jewish people, the
26:42
Speaker 2: death of Israel from the river to the sea.
26:45
Speaker 1: We've seen this on college campuses.
26:46
Speaker 2: You cannot hide this level of anti Semitism here, it
26:50
Speaker 2: is in real life on CNN.
26:52
Speaker 11: As you go forward, as you go forward with what
26:55
Speaker 11: you have seen, can you give us any sense because
26:58
Speaker 11: you said you look the shooter in the eyes, can
27:00
Speaker 11: you give us any sense of what you saw in him?
27:03
Speaker 11: As he was sort of getting help and people were
27:07
Speaker 11: tending to him as if he too was a victim
27:10
Speaker 11: of seeing this.
27:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be clear.
27:13
Speaker 13: I like heard about that part because we were in
27:15
Speaker 13: the secure room when he initially walked in. I just
27:17
Speaker 13: saw him screaming and then being handcuffed. But what I
27:21
Speaker 13: saw in his eyes, I mean, I went to Columbia
27:23
Speaker 13: for grads.
27:24
Speaker 4: Go on.
27:24
Speaker 13: I saw the same thing in his eyes as I
27:26
Speaker 13: saw in the eyes of all the protesters at Columbia.
27:28
Speaker 13: Nothing different between him and them.
27:32
Speaker 11: But they did not create this horrific shooting. They did not,
27:37
Speaker 11: you know, sort of.
27:40
Speaker 1: They didn't shoot.
27:40
Speaker 13: They gave permission. They gave the permission, and they have
27:45
Speaker 13: called for this. They have called for and to fought
27:47
Speaker 13: a revolution, which is the same thing he yelled last night.
27:51
Speaker 11: Do you worry that there will be a come conslation though,
27:55
Speaker 11: of the two, those people who are speaking their mind,
27:57
Speaker 11: who really care about what is happened in Gaza, and
28:00
Speaker 11: those people who are like this person who did this
28:04
Speaker 11: horrific shooting, who intend to do harm.
28:09
Speaker 1: A conflation.
28:10
Speaker 13: I mean, they are calling for intifada at Columbia University.
28:14
Speaker 13: They call for intifada constantly. Now they're not quietly, they're loud.
28:17
Speaker 13: They're loud, you can hear it. They make recordings of themselves.
28:20
Speaker 1: So what's the difference. Are you afraid? Yes, what We're
28:26
Speaker 1: all afraid. Everyone should be afraid.
28:31
Speaker 11: What are you doing to try to make yourself feel safer?
28:36
Speaker 13: Why can't you just go on and live your life.
28:39
Speaker 13: I'm a New Yorker, I remember nine to eleven. You
28:41
Speaker 13: can't let them make you be afraid.
28:42
Speaker 1: You have to go on.
28:43
Speaker 13: You have to live your life and hopefully your government
28:46
Speaker 13: does things to protect you.
28:48
Speaker 1: Last night, our government failed us.
28:51
Speaker 11: Jonathan Epstein. I know that they are going forward with this.
28:55
Speaker 11: There is expected to be charges in this case. We
28:57
Speaker 11: will see what happens, but I know you'll be watching
28:59
Speaker 11: and we'll talk to you again as this goes forward.
29:01
Speaker 11: Thank you so much. I'm sorry that you have to
29:03
Speaker 11: witness what you did.
29:04
Speaker 2: I mean, it is shocking to hear CNN do this
29:07
Speaker 2: interview this way where they're like, well, aren't you worried
29:10
Speaker 2: about you know, what's going to happen to the protesters
29:14
Speaker 2: and their ability to like what world are you living in?
29:18
Speaker 2: And he's right. At Columbia University, they were calling for evatada.
29:21
Speaker 2: They were calling for the death of Jewish students in PR.
29:27
Speaker 2: This is what they had in their article, for example,
29:29
Speaker 2: and this is absolutely an excusable anti Semitic behavior by NPR.
29:34
Speaker 2: This is the reason why I'm in favor of defunding
29:36
Speaker 2: NPR as soon as we possibly can. Their headline was,
29:39
Speaker 2: here's what we know about the two Israeli embassy staffers
29:42
Speaker 2: killed in Washington, d C. Then in their second paragraph
29:47
Speaker 2: it says, and more notably, as Israel ramps up it's
29:50
Speaker 2: offensive in Gaza, where the risk of famine looms for
29:54
Speaker 2: a population ground down by a month's long blockade.
30:01
Speaker 1: That's what they wrote in the second.
30:05
Speaker 2: Paragraph. Right, like, justifying is what they're doing. They're justifying
30:12
Speaker 2: these types of attacks. This is in PR. In their
30:17
Speaker 2: own words, they're saying, yeah, well, you got to understand
30:21
Speaker 2: why this has happened, right, I mean, you look at
30:23
Speaker 2: defunding NPR.
30:24
Speaker 1: The American Jewish community is.
30:26
Speaker 2: Not a pro Israel advocacy group is another way of
30:29
Speaker 2: describing it. In this article, is an American Jewish community group.
30:32
Speaker 2: They know what they're doing with their lies. And here's
30:35
Speaker 2: their headline to Israeli embassy aids are killed in a
30:38
Speaker 2: shooting in DC. Officials say, okay, so then you moved
30:41
Speaker 2: the second part quote. Shortly after nine pm, as an
30:45
Speaker 2: event by the Pro Israel Advocacy Group American Jewish Community
30:49
Speaker 2: wrapped up at a local Jewish museum in downtown DC,
30:52
Speaker 2: a man was observed pacing back and forth outside of
30:56
Speaker 2: the building. Metropolitan Police chief said, so, now, if if
31:00
Speaker 2: you're Jewish and you go to a Jewish event, you're
31:02
Speaker 2: like a pro Israel advocacy group.
31:04
Speaker 1: Are you insane?
31:04
Speaker 2: That's like, so if I'm an American and I go
31:07
Speaker 2: to Fourth of July event, that what does that label
31:09
Speaker 2: mean now? As it is insanity what we are witnessing
31:14
Speaker 2: right now, it is total insanity. I got something really
31:18
Speaker 2: fun that we get to do. And if you've got family, kids, grandkids,
31:23
Speaker 2: and you love going to a great movie, there is
31:26
Speaker 2: one called The Last Rodeo. It is starring a phenomenal
31:31
Speaker 2: actor Neil McDonough. It is in theaters tomorrow and The

32:12
Speaker 7: one of those shows that's kind of the culmination of
32:14
Speaker 7: everything I've worked towards in my whole career to be
32:16
Speaker 7: able to finally be the hero in the film kiss
32:19
Speaker 7: the girl in the end. Of course, everyone knows that
32:21
Speaker 7: I won't kiss anybody else, but I get to kiss
32:23
Speaker 7: my actual real life wife who plays my wife in
32:25
Speaker 7: the film. So that alone for me is just I
32:29
Speaker 7: finally have gotten to where I've always aspired and prayed
32:33
Speaker 7: to be, and it feels so good to be in
32:35

Speaker 7: Well, it's you know, I think you kind of nailed it.
33:00
Speaker 7: There aren't many films out in the landscape anymore where
33:03
Speaker 7: you can bring the whole family and not the soccer
33:06
Speaker 7: any sweet types of films, the films that actually have
33:09

Speaker 7: I got to cover years or eyes. You're gonna have
33:18
Speaker 7: some great films. You can have great action with the

Speaker 7: bull riding, but you're gonna have a story about families
33:23
Speaker 7: and broken families and how are you men to fractured family?
33:26
Speaker 7: And for me, you do it through faith. And when
33:27
Speaker 7: I went through all my difficult things in life, it
33:30
Speaker 7: was always my faith that got me through. Faith and
33:32
Speaker 7: my wife are may Those two things have been my
33:35
Speaker 7: two greatest things in my life. And now I get
33:38
Speaker 7: to write about both of them, and starn and opposite
33:40
Speaker 7: my wife. So I'm just I'm so excited about this
33:44
Speaker 7: film it's hard to even put it into words.
33:46
Speaker 1: Then you talked about doing this with your wife.
33:49
Speaker 2: Have you guys ever gotten to act before in movies
33:52
Speaker 2: or is this the first time.
33:53
Speaker 7: You're the leader and she's my wife's ever acted before.
33:56
Speaker 7: When I wrote the film, like okay, honey, so you know,
33:58
Speaker 7: I've always wanted to be the John Wayne guy who
34:00
Speaker 7: you know is here in the end who has to
34:02
Speaker 7: kick the girl in the end. She's like yeah. I'm like, well,
34:04
Speaker 7: I'm finally gonna do it. She's like, okay, but I
34:07
Speaker 7: need to do it with you because I won't kiss
34:08
Speaker 7: anybody else. He goes, I'm not an actress. I'm like,
34:10
Speaker 7: well you are now. And she did awesome. I'm so
34:13
Speaker 7: proud of her. You know, she was a runway model,
34:16
Speaker 7: she was a supermodel, so she understands the pressure of
34:18
Speaker 7: being in front of people and delivering. So for her
34:21
Speaker 7: in front of a camera, it was very natural and
34:23
Speaker 7: I'm just so happy. I'm so happy for her. Now.
34:25
Speaker 2: When you wrote this, you also have real stars in
34:28
Speaker 2: here as well that you that you mentioned a moment
34:30
Speaker 2: ago PBR stars. What brought you the idea to even
34:33
Speaker 2: write the script specifically with bull riding.
34:36
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan.
34:37
Speaker 2: I've gone to a lot of different Rodeos eight second Tour,
34:40
Speaker 2: et cetera. It is a brutal sport. What inspired you
34:44
Speaker 2: to use this as the backdrop?
34:47
Speaker 7: Well, Ben, I was doing another film at the time
34:49
Speaker 7: called The Warrants, another Western that Ravee and I are producing.
34:52
Speaker 7: And you know, when I'm not around Revenge, she was
34:54
Speaker 7: home at the time with the kids. When I'm not
34:56
Speaker 7: around my family, I get really just downright kind of depressed.
34:59
Speaker 7: The times it's really hard. I don't like being on
35:01
Speaker 7: the road. So but this one day I was driving
35:04
Speaker 7: home from set in Arizona, and I got gut punched
35:07
Speaker 7: with his thoughts that what whatever happened to me if
35:09
Speaker 7: something happened to Rebee, And then I pulled over to
35:12
Speaker 7: the side of the road just kind of buckled. And
35:15
Speaker 7: then this other idea came in my head, which I
35:17
Speaker 7: it have to be from God, because I didn't know
35:19
Speaker 7: a whole lot about bull riding, and this idea came
35:22
Speaker 7: into my head right rocking on a bull or a
35:25
Speaker 7: grandfather who has to save his grandson because he's dying
35:28
Speaker 7: of the same brain tumor they killed his wife. This
35:31
Speaker 7: came out, and I don't know where they came from,
35:32
Speaker 7: but it just did and then I sat in the
35:34
Speaker 7: side of the ten freeway for two hours voice dictating
35:38
Speaker 7: into my phone because I'm dyslexic, so I'm not very
35:40
Speaker 7: good at writing, so I always do all my writing
35:43
Speaker 7: through voice dictations, and I sent it up to my
35:46
Speaker 7: writing partner and within the week we had our first draft.
35:50
Speaker 7: In a week later, Reve and I raised the financing
35:52
Speaker 7: and Angel Studios came on board, and here we are
35:55
Speaker 7: almost two years later, and it's just it's kind of miraculous.
35:58
Speaker 7: I mean, it really is.
36:00
Speaker 2: Well, you mentioned that there's a family friendly movie. You
36:02
Speaker 2: don't have to worry. That's one of the reasons why
36:04
Speaker 2: I wanted to have you on how tough is it
36:07
Speaker 2: to produce movies like this in the environment we're in now,
36:10
Speaker 2: Because I know you had friends and people that you
36:12
Speaker 2: could go to for financing, but saddling up to do
36:16
Speaker 2: a pro bull riding movie and on top of having
36:19
Speaker 2: all the pressure behind you of getting this out and
36:22
Speaker 2: then getting it to the big screen, it's not an
36:24
Speaker 2: easy task, especially in twenty twenty five.
36:28
Speaker 7: No, it's not. It's you know, it's a minor miracle
36:30
Speaker 7: to pull any film off, but for this one, you know,
36:34
Speaker 7: God led me the whole way in this one. I
36:36
Speaker 7: wanted John Abne to direct it, and the amazing John
36:39
Speaker 7: Abnet and one incredible director he is he killed it.
36:41
Speaker 7: I wanted Michael T. Williamson and Christopher McDonald to play
36:45
Speaker 7: my two guys in the film, and there two of
36:46
Speaker 7: my best friends of life, and we went after you know,
36:49
Speaker 7: my one of my best friends back home, Lim Griffin
36:51
Speaker 7: helped us with the film, and then these other financiers
36:54
Speaker 7: came to me and said, hey, we know what you're doing.
36:56
Speaker 7: We really like what you're doing with your message and
36:58
Speaker 7: Angel Studios, we like to help financi your next film.
37:01
Speaker 7: So between those two parties, all of a sudden, we
37:05
Speaker 7: had our budget, we had distribution, and everything just kind
37:09
Speaker 7: of went according to plan, which was kind of miraculous. Yeah,
37:12
Speaker 7: there's always pickups, there's there's always variables that you wouldn't
37:16
Speaker 7: even think of, but we always knew that we weren't
37:19
Speaker 7: doing something that was for his glory, not our own,
37:22
Speaker 7: and everyone bought into it. So when you say Hollywood
37:27
Speaker 7: doesn't want that stuff, I think that in their heart
37:31
Speaker 7: of hearts, they actually do. And I think that this
37:34
Speaker 7: film was a whole lot easier to make than other
37:36
Speaker 7: films because it did have a faith backdrop. It was
37:39
Speaker 7: a film that the whole family can go too, you know.
37:42
Speaker 7: So I think I think the landscape is changing a
37:46
Speaker 7: lot of it thanks to Angel Studios and you know,
37:49
Speaker 7: our partnership with Angel and the films we've been doing.
37:51
Speaker 7: That you could make these smaller films and turn a profit,
37:56
Speaker 7: and that's great for everybody. And to be able to
37:59
Speaker 7: put these movies out and have the support of all
38:01
Speaker 7: the fans who go to the films and buy tickets
38:04
Speaker 7: and pay it forward anything we do with Angels, it's
38:07
Speaker 7: just it's so humbling that it's again it's hard to
38:10
Speaker 7: I get so choked up just thinking about how fortunate
38:13
Speaker 7: I am and blessed I am to be able to
38:15
Speaker 7: sit here on a show like this and talk about
38:17
Speaker 7: this amazing film that we have coming out.
38:19
Speaker 2: Last question for you, there's a rumor that you actually
38:22
Speaker 2: got injured while bull riding.
38:24
Speaker 1: Is this true?
38:26
Speaker 7: Which time?
38:27
Speaker 10: Right there?
38:28
Speaker 1: Okay? I love I love when I get good intel.
38:31
Speaker 7: Yeah, I got busted up a lot. You know. We
38:33
Speaker 7: trained for months and months and months to make sure
38:36
Speaker 7: I look as authentic as possible, and yeah, you know,
38:40
Speaker 7: busted up my wrists. My I busted a few other
38:43
Speaker 7: things with my shoulder popped out that hurt like the dickens,
38:47
Speaker 7: But I didn't tell anybody. I just went around the
38:49
Speaker 7: corner and snapped it back in at this barn net
38:51
Speaker 7: this door around the corner, and I popped back in.
38:55
Speaker 7: I had like tears in my eyes, and John's like
38:56
Speaker 7: y okay, I'm like yep, ready, let's roll. And I
38:59
Speaker 7: didn't tell them the story for three months later because
39:01
Speaker 7: if I told him here to shut it down and
39:03
Speaker 7: everyone have gone crazy, Like I'm just I'm a tough
39:07
Speaker 7: old dude, So I just like I kept it to
39:08
