Trump goes after Education, Govrnmnt takes from You and gives to the Corrupt & Using Russia to Undermine Trump · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:01
Speaker 1: Donald Trump ran on a issue that actually saw incredible
0:05
Speaker 1: engagement in the presidential election cycle. It was the issue
0:09
Speaker 1: of education. American schools are failing. In fact, we are
0:14
Speaker 1: the lowest in many categories with the rest of the
0:18
Speaker 1: world in reading and writing and arithmetic. There are quite
0:21
Speaker 1: a few failing schools virtually everywhere you go in the country,
0:26
Speaker 1: and public education has been a disaster. We've continued to
0:30
Speaker 1: throw more money at it, and we've seen no increase
0:33
Speaker 1: on test scores or a return on our investment where
0:36
Speaker 1: students are getting better at the basics like reading, writing,
0:40
Speaker 1: and arithmetic. The President has made it clear he believes
0:43
Speaker 1: that the federal Department of Education is a disaster, something
0:48
Speaker 1: that you cannot fix. Now let's be clear, the President's
0:51
Speaker 1: not said that we can't fix education and he believes
0:55
Speaker 1: it should be going back to the States. Well, the
0:57
Speaker 1: President was in an Oval Office meeting and the conversation
1:02
Speaker 1: came up about education, and here's what the President said.
1:05
Speaker 2: They're not doing a good job. And if you take
1:08
Speaker 2: a look at take a look at our education process,
1:12
Speaker 2: and if you look at the charts, because they have
1:14
Speaker 2: numerous charts where they do the top forty, we're at
1:17
Speaker 2: number thirty seven, thirty eight, thirty nine, and forty and
1:21
Speaker 2: recently they hit during Biden's.
1:23
Speaker 3: Last few days. They hit last, so they were number forty.
1:27
Speaker 4: And yet we're number one in costs for pupil So
1:30
Speaker 4: it's pretty bad.
1:31
Speaker 3: But we have a dream, and you know what the
1:34
Speaker 3: dream is.
1:34
Speaker 2: We're going to move the Department of Education.
1:36
Speaker 4: We're going to move education into the states so that
1:40
Speaker 4: the states, instead of bureaucrats working in Washington, so that
1:43
Speaker 4: the states can run education.
1:45
Speaker 1: Now, this goes back to a basic promise that Donald
1:48
Speaker 1: Trump had made during the campaign. He believes that on
1:51
Speaker 1: the local and state level, they can run education in
1:54
Speaker 1: a much more efficient way than the federal government can
1:57
Speaker 1: with all of the corruption in Washington, d D. Which
2:01
Speaker 1: brings me to something else. Linda McMahon, the Education Secretary,
2:05
Speaker 1: has now come out and had a major round of layoffs,
2:09
Speaker 1: gutting the Civil Rights Office as well the Education department
2:13
Speaker 1: civil rights branches, losing nearly half of its staff in
2:16
Speaker 1: the Trump administration's layoff round one, effectively gutting an office
2:20
Speaker 1: that already faced a backlog of thousands of complaints from
2:23
Speaker 1: students and families. They say from across the nation Among
2:27
Speaker 1: a total of more than one thy three hundred layoffices
2:30
Speaker 1: that were announced this per week, roughly two hundred and
2:33
Speaker 1: forty in the Department's Office for Civil Rights were in
2:37
Speaker 1: that group that According to a list obtained and verified
2:41
Speaker 1: by the Associated Press, seven of the Civil Rights Agency's
2:44
Speaker 1: twelve regional offices were entirely laid off, including Busy Hobbs
2:50
Speaker 1: in New York, Chicago, and Dallas. Despite assurances that the
2:53
Speaker 1: Department's work will continue unaffected, huge numbers of cases Democrats
2:58
Speaker 1: now say appeared to quote quote being limbo. Insert fearmongering
3:03
Speaker 1: right here. What democrats do well now. The Trump administration
3:07
Speaker 1: has not said how it will proceed with these cases
3:10
Speaker 1: being handled by its staff and many of those around
3:13
Speaker 1: them that have been eliminated. The cases will involve families
3:17
Speaker 1: trying to get school services for students with disabilities, and
3:20
Speaker 1: that is something that Trump administration is said is important.
3:23
Speaker 1: We also know, though, that the entire Department of Education
3:27
Speaker 1: is well bloated and it's time to dismantle it piece
3:32
Speaker 1: by piece so that the President of United States of
3:34
Speaker 1: America can then hand control back to the States. It's
3:38
Speaker 1: exactly what he said about Martin Luther King and his
3:41
Speaker 1: dream now, which is to give every kid a quality
3:44
Speaker 1: education and an education they can be proud of, and
3:48
Speaker 1: an education that has a return on our investment, and
3:51
Speaker 1: an education that prepares kids for college and the future.
3:55
Speaker 1: We have far too many public schools in America, and
3:58
Speaker 1: the presents made this clear that are handing out basically
4:01
Speaker 1: worthless pieces of paper after you quote, graduate the twelfth grade,
4:07
Speaker 1: even though you're not reading at that level, writing at
4:10
Speaker 1: that level, or doing math and science at that level.
4:13
Speaker 1: So for Donald Trump, this is another step in that
4:17
Speaker 1: promise from his campaign, and a step that many parents
4:21
Speaker 1: will be happy about in states when they actually get
4:24
Speaker 1: back control of their public school system. Now back to
4:27
Speaker 1: the fear mongering for just a second. Some staffers who
4:30
Speaker 1: remain said there's no way quote to pick up all
4:33
Speaker 1: of their fired colleagues cases in the Civil Rights Division,
4:37
Speaker 1: many were already struggling to keep pace with their own
4:40
Speaker 1: case loads. With fewer than three hundred workers, families likely
4:43
Speaker 1: will be waiting on resolutions for years to come, they said, quote,
4:48
Speaker 1: I fear they won't get all their calls, answers, their
4:50
Speaker 1: complaints won't move. That's what a senior civil rights attorney
4:53
Speaker 1: for the Office for Civil Rights said saying, quote, I
4:56
Speaker 1: truly don't understand how a handful of offices could handle
4:59
Speaker 1: the entire department officials, and says that the cuts will
5:03
Speaker 1: quote not affect the civil rights investigations. The reductions wor
5:06
Speaker 1: quote strategic decisions, is what the spokesperson, Madison Breiderman said
5:11
Speaker 1: in a statement. By the way, this goes back to doje. Yes,
5:15
Speaker 1: you can have an efficient government without all of the
5:17
Speaker 1: people that actually have all of these ridiculous jobs. The layoffs,
5:22
Speaker 1: by the way, are part of a dramatic downsizing directed
5:25
Speaker 1: by President Donald Trump as he moves to reduce the
5:29
Speaker 1: footprint he says of the overall federal government.
5:32
Speaker 4: Now.
5:32
Speaker 1: Trumps pushed for a full shutdown of the Department of Education,
5:37
Speaker 1: calling it well a con job and saying its power
5:41
Speaker 1: should be turned over to the States. On Wednesday, he
5:44
Speaker 1: told reporters many agency employees don't work at all. Responding
5:52
Speaker 1: to the layoffs, he said his administration is keeping the
5:55
Speaker 1: best ones and the ones that don't work well, you're
5:58
Speaker 1: fired cuts. The Office for Civil Rights will only have
6:02
Speaker 1: workers in Washington and five regional offices, which traditionally take
6:07
Speaker 1: the lead on investigating complaints and mediating resolutions with schools
6:11
Speaker 1: and colleges. Buildings are being closed and staff is being
6:15
Speaker 1: laid off in Dallas, Chicago, New York, Boston, Cleveland, Philadelphia,
6:22
Speaker 1: and San Francisco, and many lawyers at the New York
6:26
Speaker 1: City Office, we're juggling eighty or more cases, they now claim.
6:30
Speaker 1: In one staff member said, we're all in tears. We
6:33
Speaker 1: can't believe this is actually happening now. So many of
6:38
Speaker 1: these people that are losing their jobs are well, of course,
6:41
Speaker 1: they're crying foul because they believe that they're being persecuted
6:44
Speaker 1: because of their work in public education. The Trump administration
6:49
Speaker 1: again making it very clear it's time to get our
6:53
Speaker 1: public education system back to the States, and if the
6:57
Speaker 1: federal government is in the way of kids getting a
6:59
Speaker 1: good education, then we should get the hell out of
7:03
Speaker 1: the way. One other thing that I think is interesting
7:06
Speaker 1: about all of these layoffs is this, even before the layoffs,
7:10
Speaker 1: the Civil Rights Office had been losing staff even as
7:13
Speaker 1: complaints rose to quote record levels. The workforce had fallen
7:17
Speaker 1: below six hundred staffers even before Trump took office, and
7:22
Speaker 1: they faced nearly twenty three thousand complaints filed last year
7:27
Speaker 1: alone under Biden Harris. That is more than ever before.
7:32
Speaker 1: Now you may ask yourself, why were there so many complaints?
7:35
Speaker 1: Could it be that now it's actually in the interest
7:37
Speaker 1: of anyone who's disgruntled to just claim a civil rights
7:40
Speaker 1: complaint and see what you get out of it. Well,
7:43
Speaker 1: apparently that's exactly what they were doing the final year
7:46
Speaker 1: of the Biden and Harris administration. Now Trump finally is
7:51
Speaker 1: also ordered to freeze on most cases when they arrived
7:55
Speaker 1: at the department, adding quote democrats say to the quote backlog.
8:00
Speaker 1: And when the Education Secretary of Lena McMahon lifted the
8:03
Speaker 1: freeze last week, there were more than twenty thousand pending cases.
8:09
Speaker 1: So you look at what Donald Trump just did. He's saying,
8:13
Speaker 1: you can fear mongrel you want. It doesn't really matter
8:16
Speaker 1: because I'm getting rid of the Department of Education. There
8:21
Speaker 1: is a very divided country right now on the issue
8:25
Speaker 1: of what is the place of government. And liberals, socialist,
8:30
Speaker 1: Marxist and communists they believe the government is the solution
8:33
Speaker 1: to everything. Conservatives like myself believe that the government is
8:37
Speaker 1: the problem with almost everything, and that big government is
8:41
Speaker 1: worse than anything else because it steals from the hard
8:45
Speaker 1: working and gives to the poor, and many of them
8:47
Speaker 1: are lazy. You look at just this last week, Elon
8:51
Speaker 1: Musk said he's actually afraid someone's going to kill him
8:54
Speaker 1: because of what he's uncovering about how much the government
8:58
Speaker 1: takes and then gives to all these corrupt individuals who
9:01
Speaker 1: claim they're helping the poor, like these these non governmental
9:04
Speaker 1: agencies in goos Okay. So look at them for an example,
9:08
Speaker 1: or as she's say, non governmental organizations. You look at
9:12
Speaker 1: these NGOs and they claim they're helping the poor, but
9:15
Speaker 1: really they're just helping certain people get paydays, like massive pities.
9:19
Speaker 1: The corruption is unbelievable in these NGOs. And then you
9:22
Speaker 1: look at like Zelensky for example, and Donald Trump said,
9:27
Speaker 1: under Biden, Zelensky took money out of us like candy
9:30
Speaker 1: from a baby. I believe, by the way that the
9:33
Speaker 1: President is absolutely right in the way that he said that.
9:36
Speaker 1: He also went on to say, I don't believe that
9:38
Speaker 1: they are thankful for anything, like nothing. He was on
9:45
Speaker 1: Maria Barturomo's show, and I want you to hear what
9:48
Speaker 1: Donald Trump said when he was talking to Maria about
9:52
Speaker 1: Zelensky about the money, because this goes back to thinking
9:55
Speaker 1: which is everybody like all these liberals like, oh, we
9:57
Speaker 1: just you know, we've got enough money. Send one hundred bion,
10:00
Speaker 1: two hundred billion, three hundred billion here, five hundredllion here,
10:02
Speaker 1: two hundred million there, one hundred fifty billion there, four
10:04
Speaker 1: hundred billion here. It adds up right, like two massive
10:07
Speaker 1: amounts of debt trillions of dollars, which is what we
10:10
Speaker 1: have right now. And when Maria Bartiromo asked the President
10:13
Speaker 1: was about Zelenski, like, how the hell did this guy
10:16
Speaker 1: get so much money from us? Take a listen, go
10:20
Speaker 1: back to.
10:20
Speaker 5: What happened in the Oval office the other day. I
10:22
Speaker 5: call it a SmackDown of Zelenski. It looked really rough,
10:27
Speaker 5: But then again, at the end of the day, you
10:29
Speaker 5: may have your deal back.
10:30
Speaker 3: So was that all the art of the deal?
10:32
Speaker 5: What specifically ticked you off?
10:34
Speaker 4: Well, you know, he was able to. It was like
10:41
Speaker 4: taking candy from a baby.
10:42
Speaker 3: What he did. He's a smart guy, and he's.
10:45
Speaker 4: A tough guy, and he took money out of this
10:50
Speaker 4: country under Biden like candy from a baby. It was
10:55
Speaker 4: so easy with that same attitude. And I just don't
11:01
Speaker 4: think he's grateful.
11:02
Speaker 3: We gave him.
11:03
Speaker 4: In my opinion, three hundred and fifty billion dollars. Europe
11:06
Speaker 4: is in for a hundred billion dollars. We gave him
11:09
Speaker 4: three hundred and fifty billion dollars. And he's talking about
11:12
Speaker 4: the fact that they have fought and they have this
11:14
Speaker 4: a bravery because somebody has to use the weapons.
11:16
Speaker 3: But without those weapons, So forget.
11:18
Speaker 4: I was the one that gave him the javelins that
11:20
Speaker 4: was able to knock down all the types. Obama gave nothing. Look,
11:24
Speaker 4: if I were president, that would have never happened. You
11:27
Speaker 4: wouldn't have had Russia going into Ukraine. You wouldn't have
11:30
Speaker 4: had the whole situation with Hamas, and October seventh would
11:34
Speaker 4: have never happened because Iran was broke.
11:37
Speaker 3: They had no money.
11:38
Speaker 4: They weren't giving it to Amas or Hezbil anybody else.
11:41
Speaker 4: You would have never had the worst evacuation anyone's ever seen,
11:45
Speaker 4: which is Afghanistan, which was the most embarrassing day in
11:48
Speaker 4: the history of our country. And you know what else
11:51
Speaker 4: you wouldn't have had. You wouldn't have had inflation. We
11:53
Speaker 4: had record setting inflation under Biden. It was a killer.
11:57
Speaker 4: You may get one of the reasons I won the.
11:58
Speaker 5: Election, but you may get it again with these tariffs, right,
12:01
Speaker 5: I mean once CEO said to me, my input costs
12:03
Speaker 5: have already started to go up.
12:05
Speaker 3: I'm going to have to raise prices in the meantime.
12:07
Speaker 4: Guess what interest rates are down for the last three
12:09
Speaker 4: or four days at good levels. I mean, you know
12:13
Speaker 4: when you add interest rates you're talking about, it's gone down.
12:18
Speaker 4: I've been saying, let's get interest rates down. You know,
12:22
Speaker 4: nobody ever gets rich when the interest rates are high
12:25
Speaker 4: because people can't borrow money.
12:27
Speaker 3: Interest rates are going down. You know what else is
12:29
Speaker 3: going down? What have I been trying to get down? Energy?
12:33
Speaker 4: Energy's going down. I'd love to see energy go down.
12:37
Speaker 4: You know, energy is really what caused it. They screwed
12:40
Speaker 4: up my energy. I had the most energy and they
12:43
Speaker 4: screwed it up. Then they went back to it through
12:45
Speaker 4: it was going through the roof. They went back to
12:47
Speaker 4: some drilling. But it was gone. It was it was helpless,
12:51
Speaker 4: it was lost. But energy's gone down and interest rates
12:54
Speaker 4: have gone out over the last week.
12:56
Speaker 3: That's a big thing. I love that.
12:57
Speaker 5: Do you expect Zelenski to come back? Do you expect
13:00
Speaker 5: to do that rare earth minerals deal?
13:02
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think so. I think it will happen.
13:04
Speaker 5: Are you sure there's the content that you think there
13:06
Speaker 5: is there, because some people were questioning if in fact
13:09
Speaker 5: there is the you know, the titanium and the lithium
13:11
Speaker 5: when all those battery the rare earth minerals, you think
13:14
Speaker 5: it is rich with.
13:16
Speaker 4: The well I do, I do. I mean, I've had
13:18
Speaker 4: a checked. I've had a check. It's very valuable. But
13:22
Speaker 4: with all that being said, Biden should have never put
13:25
Speaker 4: up three hundred and fifty billion dollars. He should have
13:27
Speaker 4: equalized with Europe. Well he had to do is say
13:29
Speaker 4: you got to stay even with us. They're in for
13:32
Speaker 4: one hundred weren't for three point fifty.
13:35
Speaker 3: How does that?
13:36
Speaker 4: And we have an ocean in between us, Right, We're
13:38
Speaker 4: not in the danger that they are. They are much
13:40
Speaker 4: greater danger, if you call it danger. He should have
13:44
Speaker 4: never done that.
13:45
Speaker 6: You know.
13:45
Speaker 3: The other thing with the Europe that bothers me.
13:48
Speaker 4: They've given Russia more money by far for buying their oil.
13:53
Speaker 4: Then they put into Ukraine. So they're paying all this
13:57
Speaker 4: money to Russia and we're there for three hundred and
14:00
Speaker 4: fifty billion dollars.
14:02
Speaker 3: Biden should have never done that.
14:03
Speaker 5: I spoke with the President of Poland. The other day,
14:06
Speaker 5: President Dudah has great respect for you, and I said
14:10
Speaker 5: to him, you know what if the US walks away
14:13
Speaker 5: and stays away.
14:14
Speaker 3: Here's what he said.
14:15
Speaker 5: Without the United States, do you believe that Europe is
14:19
Speaker 5: capable of offering meaningful security to Ukraine?
14:24
Speaker 6: I would like to believe it, but experience to date
14:28
Speaker 6: shows that this has not been the case. The entire
14:32
Speaker 6: history so far of the last three years of the
14:35
Speaker 6: war shows that without American support, Ukraine will not survive.
14:40
Speaker 5: Are you comfortable with that, the fact that you walked
14:43
Speaker 5: away and Ukraine may not survive, Well, it.
14:46
Speaker 4: May not survive anyway, but you know, we have some
14:50
Speaker 4: weaknesses with Russia. You know it takes two Look, it
14:56
Speaker 4: was not going to happen that war, and it happened.
14:58
Speaker 3: So now we're stuck with this mess.
15:00
Speaker 4: Think of what he stuck me with open borders, where
15:03
Speaker 4: we have twenty one million people came into our country,
15:05
Speaker 4: many of whom should not be here. Many are criminals,
15:08
Speaker 4: many many are criminals, many murderers, murderers, drug dealers, drug lords.
15:15
Speaker 3: We got that.
15:16
Speaker 4: We have the whole mess with Israel and October seventh,
15:20
Speaker 4: we have all of the ramifications from the worst and
15:25
Speaker 4: dumbest withdrawal in history.
15:26
Speaker 5: Both Ukraine and Israel were both attacked by aggressors. Is
15:31
Speaker 5: America treating both countries similarly? Are they treating the aggressors similarly?
15:37
Speaker 3: I think so?
15:38
Speaker 5: Look good favoring one or the other.
15:40
Speaker 4: They're very different places, Okay, very very different. You're talking
15:43
Speaker 4: about different levels of power. You're talking about different parts
15:48
Speaker 4: of the world. The Middle East has been under attacked forever.
15:51
Speaker 4: It's you look, whe wasn't it under attack? And then
15:56
Speaker 4: we came along and did the Abraham Accords, which was
15:59
Speaker 4: unheard of.
16:00
Speaker 5: Have you been as tough on Russia as you've been
16:02
Speaker 5: on Hamas? I mean, what do you want to say
16:04
Speaker 5: to be much tougher?
16:06
Speaker 4: Because I haven't done to Amos. That's been Israel. That
16:09
Speaker 4: has to do to a moss. But Israel does tell
16:11
Speaker 4: me what's going on. I think I've been very tough
16:15
Speaker 4: to Russia, tougher than anybody's ever been to Russia if
16:19
Speaker 4: you think about it. First of all, we had the
16:21
Speaker 4: Russia Russia Russia hooks, which was a very bad thing,
16:25
Speaker 4: could have led to a war, and that was started
16:28
Speaker 4: by Schiff and all these low lives. I know, the
16:31
Speaker 4: total low lives and it was a fake deal. The
16:34
Speaker 4: fifty one intelligence agencies, it was. I took all their
16:38
Speaker 4: passes away. They can't participate anymore. These guys know. It
16:42
Speaker 4: came from hell. Hunter Biden's laptop from Hell, which came
16:47
Speaker 4: from his bathroom and or his bedroom. Okay, not a
16:50
Speaker 4: pretty sight, but this was a Hunter Biden thing. They
16:53
Speaker 4: said it was from Russia. No, I've been very tough.
16:57
Speaker 4: Remember this. I'm the one that stopped the Russian pipeline
17:01
Speaker 4: nord Stream too.
17:03
Speaker 3: I stopped it.
17:04
Speaker 4: Biden came in and he approved it. I'm the one
17:07
Speaker 4: that put sanctions on Russia. I'm the one that gave
17:10
Speaker 4: the javelins against Russia. No, I've been very tough, but
17:13
Speaker 4: I got along well with Putin. And because I got along, well, oh,
17:17
Speaker 4: they say, oh, he's so nobody's ever been Putin would
17:20
Speaker 4: be the first to say it, nobody's been tougher than Drum.
17:24
Speaker 1: You listen to this foreign policy, and the reason why
17:27
Speaker 1: I played that for in the long version is because
17:30
Speaker 1: I think it's really important that people think about what
17:35
Speaker 1: the present's saying there. What he keeps going back to
17:39
Speaker 1: at a core point is that it's not our job
17:42
Speaker 1: to pay for everything else of everybody else that does things.
17:48
Speaker 1: It is not our job for us to send money
17:52
Speaker 1: all over the world. Look at this last week, job
17:54
Speaker 1: reports showed two hundred and eighty four thousand more Americans
17:56
Speaker 1: working in seventy and excuse me, eighty seven thousand, few
17:59
Speaker 1: or four born workers. Why is that significant because the
18:03
Speaker 1: President's saying, I'm putting Americans first, I'm not in favor
18:07
Speaker 1: of giving charity out to the rest of the world
18:09
Speaker 1: that we're having to pay for money by the way
18:11
Speaker 1: that we don't have. That's the difference here. I want
18:17
Speaker 1: to take you back to twenty sixteen. It was the
18:20
Speaker 1: very first time that the media and Democrats used Russia
18:24
Speaker 1: to try to attack Donald Trump. You may remember the
18:27
Speaker 1: Russian collusion, Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, as Donald Trump has
18:30
Speaker 1: said countless times with good reason. Well, now the Democratic
18:36
Speaker 1: Party is trying to use Russia again to undermine Donald
18:40
Speaker 1: Trump in his popularity, all because he wants to see
18:43
Speaker 1: a ridiculous war be ended between Russia and Ukraine. They're
18:48
Speaker 1: trying to drive a wedge between the President and the
18:52
Speaker 1: American people, claiming that Donald Trump favors Vladimir Putin. And
18:57
Speaker 1: that there's some sort of shady, corrupt business going on
19:01
Speaker 1: between the two men, which we all know is obviously
19:04
Speaker 1: a massive lie, a lie that's been orchestrated by the
19:07
Speaker 1: Democratic Party. Well, there's a new story that you probably
19:11
Speaker 1: haven't heard about, and I hope you'll take this show
19:14
Speaker 1: and share it everywhere, because what I'm about to tell
19:17
Speaker 1: you is something that literally no one is covering. Donald
19:21
Speaker 1: Trump has threatened devastating financial penalties now for Russia. I
19:30
Speaker 1: didn't say Ukraine. I said for Russia and Vladimir Putin.
19:36
Speaker 1: President Trump on Wednesday threatened the quote devastating financial penalties
19:41
Speaker 1: for Russia if the president Vladimir Putin does not agree
19:44
Speaker 1: to a ceasefire with Ukraine that Ukraine has agreed to. Quote,
19:50
Speaker 1: there are things that wouldn't be pleasant. In a financial sense,
19:54
Speaker 1: I can do things financially that would be very bad
19:57
Speaker 1: for Russia. I don't want to do that because I
20:01
Speaker 1: want to get peace. That is what Donald Trump told
20:04
Speaker 1: reporters in the Oval Office. Quote in a financial sense, yes,
20:10
Speaker 1: we could do things that would be very bad for Russia.
20:13
Speaker 1: That would be devastating for Russia. But I don't want
20:16
Speaker 1: to do that because I want to see peace, and
20:19
Speaker 1: we're getting close to maybe getting something done. We got
20:23
Speaker 1: Ukraine done, and as you know, Ukraine might have been
20:28
Speaker 1: the more difficult party here. You were here a week
20:31
Speaker 1: ago when some interesting things happen. Referring to the Zolensky
20:35
Speaker 1: meeting in the Oval Office, Trump went on to say,
20:38
Speaker 1: I had somebody who didn't seem to want peace. Now
20:43
Speaker 1: he's agreed to peace. Trump also said people are going
20:47
Speaker 1: to Russia right now as we speak, and hopefully we
20:51
Speaker 1: can get a ceasefire from Russia. If we do, I
20:55
Speaker 1: think that would be eighty percent of the way to
20:57
Speaker 1: getting this horrible bloodbath to end. So the question that
21:02
Speaker 1: all of us should be looking at and asking now
21:05
Speaker 1: is this, why is the media not reporting this story?
21:08
Speaker 1: Number one and number two? A president is trying to
21:12
Speaker 1: bring peace. Why aren't they celebrating this? Why is the
21:16
Speaker 1: world media not celebrating this? And why is it that
21:20
Speaker 1: this isn't the number one leading story on every news
21:25
Speaker 1: channel right now that the president got Zelensky agreeed to
21:29
Speaker 1: peace after one week of him being in the White
21:33
Speaker 1: House angry and yelling and arguing with Donald Trump. And
21:37
Speaker 1: then the other question is this, why aren't democrats if
21:41
Speaker 1: you really want to talk about Russian collusion, why, and
21:45
Speaker 1: this may be the most important part, why are they
21:48
Speaker 1: not demanding peace from Vladimir Putin? Why are world leaders
21:52
Speaker 1: not demanding peace from Vladimir Putin? Let's be clear, there's
21:58
Speaker 1: now an official deal on the t Why is it
22:01
Speaker 1: that foreign leaders aren't walking out in front of microphones
22:05
Speaker 1: and demanding the Vladimir Putin agreed to the ceasefire deal
22:09
Speaker 1: which Zolensky and Ukraine have agreed to. And why aren't
22:13
Speaker 1: any of them talking about how quickly this deal was
22:16
Speaker 1: done by Donald Trump? Now, look, I expect the media
22:20
Speaker 1: to hate Donald Trump. I expect many world leaders to
22:23
Speaker 1: well be jealous of him. But this should be bigger
22:27
Speaker 1: than that. This is about saving countless lives and so
22:32
Speaker 1: many families that have been destroyed in Russia and Ukraine
22:35
Speaker 1: in a senseless war from the very beginning. This is
22:39
Speaker 1: what leaders do.
22:40
Speaker 3: They lead.
22:41
Speaker 1: And the sad thing is apparently in this country right
22:44
Speaker 1: now with our media. If his name is Donald Trump
22:48
Speaker 1: and he does something incredible like work for a piece
22:50
Speaker 1: to deal, they will at best say something negative about him,
22:55
Speaker 1: or maybe just not tell you the story at all.
22:58
Speaker 1: When the radical left tells you who they are. Believe
23:02
Speaker 1: them when the radical left tells you what they believe in.
23:06
Speaker 1: Believe them when the radical left shows up and does
23:09
Speaker 1: something that seems absolutely psychotic and crazy. Understand that that
23:15
Speaker 1: is actually what they believe. For far too long, what
23:20
Speaker 1: we have been seeing is that we try to apologize
23:24
Speaker 1: on behalf of the crazies on the left. We try
23:28
Speaker 1: to apologize, which I say, no, they didn't really mean that.
23:31
Speaker 1: We let them get away with it. We're constantly trying
23:34
Speaker 1: to say that what we're witnessing, what we're seeing is
23:37
Speaker 1: somehow not real, because we say, there's no way that
23:39
Speaker 1: could actually be real, Like there's no way that someone
23:43
Speaker 1: could actually believe that, Which brings me to my bigger point,
23:47
Speaker 1: and I've been saying this for quite some time. The
23:50
Speaker 1: Democratic Party is dead. The Democratic Party is actually filled
23:55
Speaker 1: with a bunch of socialists, a bunch of communists, and
24:00
Speaker 1: a bunch of Marxists. That is exactly who the Democratic
24:05
Speaker 1: Party is. Finally, some of them are actually telling the
24:11
Speaker 1: truth about who they are. And I'm glad because I
24:17
Speaker 1: have said that the Democratic Party is it is dead.
24:22
Speaker 1: But they've had to lie and to see voters for
24:25
Speaker 1: several years now, because they knew that America really wasn't
24:29
Speaker 1: ready for the Democratic Party to die and for them
24:33
Speaker 1: to just go to the next phase, which was to
24:36
Speaker 1: decide that you're a socialist and Marxists are a communists.
24:39
Speaker 1: And so the Democratic Party is actually filled with candidates
24:42
Speaker 1: that are those things. Now, let me be clear, some
24:45
Speaker 1: of them believe in multiple different areas of socialism and
24:49
Speaker 1: Marxism communism. Some are just straight up declared socialists, others
24:53
Speaker 1: are just declared communists, others are just declared Marxists. But
24:57
Speaker 1: the majority of the candidates right now in the Democrats
25:00
Speaker 1: party fall into those categories. You look at the joint
25:06
Speaker 1: address to Congress the other night by Donald Trump, and
25:09
Speaker 1: you look at the left and whether it's those that
25:12
Speaker 1: were disrupting early on, whether it's those that had their
25:14
Speaker 1: signs and their boards up. Those aren't Democrats. The Democratic
25:19
Speaker 1: Party has died. Those are socialists and Marxists running as
25:23
Speaker 1: Democrats who got elected as Democrats because it's palatable. Well,
25:28
Speaker 1: fast forward to twenty twenty five, and now we're getting closer,
25:32
Speaker 1: I think to reality. There's two things that I've learned
25:36
Speaker 1: from this last election with Donald Trump that I think
25:40
Speaker 1: really explain a lot. One of them is it is
25:44
Speaker 1: very clear now that Democrats have not learned a damn
25:47
Speaker 1: thing from their lost They just haven't. Okay, they've learned nothing,
25:54
Speaker 1: absolutely nothing from the brutal beat down and the loss
25:58
Speaker 1: that they took in this last election. That's point number one,
26:02
Speaker 1: because if they did, they wouldn't be acting this way,
26:05
Speaker 1: and if they did, they'd actually be going backwards and going, Okay,
26:09
Speaker 1: we need to reassess. We've gotten way too crazy, we
26:13
Speaker 1: are way too extreme, and it's time for us to
26:15
Speaker 1: bring it back to being Democrats, not being socialist, Marxist
26:19
Speaker 1: and communists. Now, that's that has not happened. They have
26:23
Speaker 1: learned nothing. Okay, Like I'm going to say that again,
26:28
Speaker 1: they have learned nothing from this last election. So let's
26:34
Speaker 1: let's be very very very very clear about that second point.
26:40
Speaker 1: There are some that are now just saying I'm gonna
26:42
Speaker 1: admit who I am. I'm just gonna be good with it.
26:44
Speaker 1: The example I'm going to give you right now comes
26:46
Speaker 1: out of New York City. Socialist New York City mayor
26:49
Speaker 1: all candidate once to hike corporate taxes to pay for
26:54
Speaker 1: loads of freebies. Now I'm glad he's admitting, like I'm
26:57
Speaker 1: not I'm not really a democrat, I'm a straight socialists,
27:00
Speaker 1: Like that's who I am. And this socialist mayoral Kennett,
27:06
Speaker 1: his name is Zoran Mandandhi Mandani excuse me, wants to
27:12
Speaker 1: raise corporate taxes to pay for billions of dollars of
27:15
Speaker 1: freebies for New York, he told The New York Post
27:18
Speaker 1: and exclusive sit down interview. The Queen's state assemblyman is
27:23
Speaker 1: a thirty three year old set. His plans for his
27:25
Speaker 1: socialists utopia involves subsidizing free transit and free childcare. How's
27:30
Speaker 1: he going to pay for it? With higher tax on
27:32
Speaker 1: corporations in New York City and establishing city run food
27:37
Speaker 1: stores as well, so the government will be in charge
27:40
Speaker 1: of your food supply chain in New York City. That's
27:45
Speaker 1: not all he wants to do. He also wants to
27:49
Speaker 1: hurt people that own property. How we do that very
27:52
Speaker 1: simply by freezing rent. He wants to freeze that rent
27:56
Speaker 1: for millions of New Yorkers and create a new safety plan,
28:00
Speaker 1: as he describes it, for the city. The out of
28:03
Speaker 1: nowhere candidate, who has been surging so pay attention in
28:08
Speaker 1: recent polls, said his campaign has a quote relentless focus
28:12
Speaker 1: on making New York City more affordable through a sizable
28:16
Speaker 1: expansion of government. So big government is back, which he
28:20
Speaker 1: says lies in direct contrast to the competitor, a guy
28:26
Speaker 1: who you'll remember is the former governor of New York
28:29
Speaker 1: who resigned in disgrace, Andrew Cuomo. We have a north Star,
28:34
Speaker 1: referring to his campaign's economic agenda that is all driven
28:38
Speaker 1: by the belief that working class New Yorkers cannot afford
28:41
Speaker 1: to worry about anything beyond costs, because it's cost that
28:45
Speaker 1: is pushing them out of the city that they love,
28:48
Speaker 1: stating that one in four New Yorkers lives now in poverty.
28:52
Speaker 1: Now what is this actually about. He's doing the math,
28:56
Speaker 1: and he's understanding that there's a chance that he could
28:58
Speaker 1: win an election only based on the issue of class warfare.
29:03
Speaker 1: So you get the people that are struggling in New York,
29:06
Speaker 1: and you get them angry, and you tell them that
29:08
Speaker 1: it's the rich people that are their problem and it's
29:10
Speaker 1: all their fault. You get people that can't afford to
29:13
Speaker 1: live in the city, and you tell them that it's
29:16
Speaker 1: it's the fault of the rich landlords that they can't
29:19
Speaker 1: live there anymore, and they're and their rent should be
29:22
Speaker 1: frozen indefinitely forever, and that the rent is You may
29:27
Speaker 1: remember that the candidate who ran one time in this country,
29:30
Speaker 1: I think it was the one that the rent is
29:32
Speaker 1: too damn high guy, and people loved it because he
29:35
Speaker 1: was telling you, like, I'm going to help you stop
29:37
Speaker 1: having to pay high prices. So there, it is a
29:41
Speaker 1: straight up move. For lack of a better way of
29:45
Speaker 1: putting it, it is a It is a move to say,
29:48
Speaker 1: if you are poor, vote for me, and I will
29:51
Speaker 1: take from the rich. This is a robin hood campaign.
29:55
Speaker 1: It's one of the oldest campaign strategies in history. You
30:00
Speaker 1: find enough poor people and you play off of them
30:04
Speaker 1: and you tell them that their life would be better
30:07
Speaker 1: if you just voted for me, because I'm going to
30:08
Speaker 1: go to all those evil rich people and I'm going
30:10
Speaker 1: to take what they have, and I'm going to make
30:13
Speaker 1: your life better by going after them. Quote. That is
30:17
Speaker 1: all driven by the belief that working class New Yorkers
30:19
Speaker 1: cannot afford to worry about anything beyond cost because it's costs.
30:22
Speaker 1: It's pushing them out of the city that they love.
30:25
Speaker 1: So there, it is if you are being left behind.
30:29
Speaker 1: It's not your fault, it's someone else's fault. And if
30:32
Speaker 1: you vote for me, I'm going to steal from the
30:34
Speaker 1: rich this Robinhood campaign and give to the poor. He's
30:38
Speaker 1: done the math. Folks, There's a hell of a lot
30:40
Speaker 1: of people in New York that are in fact paycheck
30:41
Speaker 1: to paycheck. There's no doubt about that quote. Whether it's
30:44
Speaker 1: the cost of rent, childcare, or Metro card groceries, New
30:48
Speaker 1: Yorkers are on the brink, he says. I'm on a
30:51
Speaker 1: bashful that I lean to the left, and I plan
30:54
Speaker 1: to advocate and raise corporate tax rates as much as
30:58
Speaker 1: those surrounding states. I'm going to go after them because
31:01
Speaker 1: they deserve to pay more. Not even fair, We're not
31:04
Speaker 1: even We're past fair share. Okay, we're now saying everyone
31:08
Speaker 1: else's it's everyone else's fault that you're not living the
31:11
Speaker 1: life that you want to live. So vote for me.
31:15
Speaker 1: I'll steal from the rich and I'll give it back
31:17
Speaker 1: to you. Now, all the data that I just gave you,
31:20
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you to share it on social media.
31:23
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask to share it with your family and
31:25
Speaker 1: your friends. We do this show every day on social media,
31:28
