00:13:52Grazie a tutti.
00:13:55C'è diversa a tutti.
00:13:57to dinner and they're having dinners they wouldn't they didn't go out for four years and now they're going out three times a week restaurants are opening restaurants are full and usually that means a lot of good things but restaurants that were closed are now opening up and everybody's happy it's nobody's ever seen anything like it actually and everybody feels safe you can you can have a child walk right through the middle of washington d.c. and nothing's going to happen we were losing more than one person a week and why they're being killed
00:14:27on an average of over one a week the make dc safe task force has been incredible and the make memphis safe task force is having very similar results it's much earlier but we've been there for a week and a half but i'm hearing the results are pretty incredible and you'll hear about that they're mobilizing more than 20 federal agencies for the largest law enforcement operation targeting violent criminals in american history as a result of
00:14:57these efforts violent crime declined nearly 20 percent nationwide compared to the same period last year and it was the safest and most peaceful peaceful summer in two decades and honestly we haven't really even gotten going yet if we didn't have to fight all of these radical left governors we could have had chicago taken care of as an example they had in a short period of time four thousand murders in chicago and we have to listen to this man stand up and say that we're bad people
00:15:27to live in 48 and there's the.
00:15:29but and i think we're bad people have to like i should ask for a particular sponsor that she handles it in many girls- Mari-Naheansliest
00:15:34i've been saying that the
00:15:49success nobody would even believe it so I want to congratulate all of the
00:15:54incredible law enforcement professionals joining us today
00:15:57especially Attorney General Pam Bondi's terrific Deputy Attorney General Todd
00:16:03Blanch who is a fantastic legal talent he really is he's a great guy too and of
00:16:11course FBI Director Cash Patel they have worked so hard on this and other
00:16:16things since the start of the administration the FBI has arrested
00:16:20over 23,000 violent criminals more than double the number arrested in the
00:16:25final year of the Biden disaster the FBI has also destroyed or severely
00:16:31disrupted more than 170 organized criminal enterprises and gangs 1,600 of
00:16:38the most violent gangs and confiscated over 6,000 illegal firearms and they've
00:16:44tracked down and arrested for fugitives on the most wanted list for the most
00:16:49wanted actually two of them were the most wanted fugitives in the world
00:16:55there's still much more work to be done which is why the FBI continues to work
00:16:59alongside the Department of Justice the Department of Homeland Security and the
00:17:04Department of War to defend and Pete Hegseth has been fantastic by the way on
00:17:09this to one other things but on this to to defend law and order in combat violent
00:17:15crime arrest illegal aliens and make American cities the safest in the world
00:17:20and when I campaigned I talked about crime but I never knew that we were going to
00:17:25get into it like we did you know I mean I used to watch these cities with the
00:17:28murders Chicago recently had one deal where they had 11 murders in one weekend
00:17:34and they said well yeah but it was a holiday weekend they actually told me that
00:17:37was the reason like it was okay because it was a holiday it was Labor Day these
00:17:42people are the worst they are they really have to they better I tell you what the
00:17:47the people in Chicago and the people in places like that that could be fixed at
00:17:51some point it gets to where you can't fix it anymore it's too far gone and we
00:17:56have some cities like that but these are great cities that could be fixed I'm
00:18:00going to be strongly recommending at the request of government officials which is
00:18:05always nice that you start looking at San Francisco I think we can make San
00:18:09Francisco there's one of our great cities 10 years ago 15 years ago now it's a
00:18:15mess and we have great support in San Francisco so I'd like to recommend
00:18:19that for inclusion maybe in your next group you'll get great support every
00:18:24American deserves to live in a community where they're not afraid of
00:18:27being mugged murdered robbed raped assaulted or shot and that's exactly what our
00:18:33administration is working to deliver I didn't realize I was going to make
00:18:36this such a big factor in the admit I didn't really campaign I campaigned on
00:18:40crime but I never thought we'd go into every city and take a really safe city
00:18:45that we've all been living with the years and make them safe and now it's like a
00:18:50passion for me and it's a passion for the people behind me so I didn't get
00:18:55elected I did get elected for crime but I didn't get elected for what we're doing
00:19:00this is many many steps above it I want to thank Stephen Miller who's right back in
00:19:04the audience right there I'd love to have him I love watching him on
00:19:08television I'd love to have him come up and explain his true feelings but maybe
00:19:14not his truest feelings that might be going a little bit too far but Stephen
00:19:18thank you for doing an unbelievable job and the people of this country love you
00:19:21I'll tell you and they love what you say about crime and stopping crime so now I'd
00:19:26like to ask director I'd like to ask director Patel to say a few words and
00:19:32then Pam and Todd also and I just want to congratulate them this is an amazing
00:19:37thing and we're just at the start we're gonna go into other cities that we're not
00:19:41talking about purposely we're getting ready to go in and when they go in like
00:19:45cash is an example told me that people didn't even know five months ago they went
00:19:49into Chicago and they started doing a lot of work in Chicago and we brought the
00:19:54the numbers down a little bit and but that really was just preparatory work
00:20:00for what we're going to do with the surge we're gonna have a surge of strong good
00:20:06people patriots and they're gonna go in they straighten it all out so a lot of
00:20:12these cities were already working on but we don't do it with a big a big flavor but
00:20:17in a little while you're gonna see some numbers that you're not gonna believe and I
00:20:20I think you'll probably start with Memphis because I'm hearing the numbers
00:20:23are much quicker than we even thought possible but again DC is it speaks for
00:20:30itself Chicago is going to be okay we're going to save Chicago and I told you and
00:20:34I told them a very respected man the head of the Union Pacific said sir save
00:20:40Chicago it can be saved and the way he said it was like can you believe it we're
00:20:44trying to save Chicago but I understood exactly what he wants and that's what
00:20:48we're going to do we're going to save all of our cities and we're going to make
00:20:51them essentially crime free like other countries have crime free if you go all
00:20:57over the world you go to the word you hear Afghanistan and you hear all these
00:21:01different places our crime in certain cities is worse than anything they can
00:21:06even imagine and we're not going to have that any longer it's going to stop and
00:21:10it stops right here cash please thank you mr. president what I'd like to do is
00:21:14just highlight some of the outstanding work that the men and women of the FBI have been
00:21:17doing and thanks to your brave leadership and the mandate you were given by the
00:21:21American people not only defend the homeland but crush violent crime you
00:21:24tasked us with our great partners at the Department of Justice and the Attorney
00:21:27General and the Deputy Attorney General to start making arrests and bring
00:21:30prosecutions and safeguard our cities and you said it this is just the
00:21:34beginning in just seven months I hope the media takes a look at every one of
00:21:38these charts because these are the best numbers for fighting crime in US history and
00:21:43and it's only seven months in and to do that our vehicle to do it of choice was
00:21:47operation summer heat which the FBI architected to go after violent
00:21:51criminals and in just a three month span you had 8700 arrests of violent
00:21:56criminals you had 2200 firearms seized off the streets permanently to
00:22:02safeguard our communities you had 421 kilograms of fentanyl seized just to put
00:22:07that in perspective that's enough to kill 55 million Americans alone you had
00:22:1345,000 kilograms of cocaine seized and thanks to our Department of Justice
00:22:17partners you had 2100 indictments in three months from June to September alone
00:22:23mr. president that in and of itself would be historic for a four-year
00:22:27presidency you did that in seven months because you let good cops be cops and you
00:22:31partnered us with the right people the Department of Justice to put the
00:22:35handcuffs on and bring him to court and put him in prison and if that weren't
00:22:39enough when you look at the year for the entire seven month period that we're
00:22:42talking about here if you look at the past four years of the Biden
00:22:45administration 16,000 17,000 15,000 15,000 that's the number of arrests year
00:22:51over year of violent felons in this country for the Biden administration mr.
00:22:55president in seven months you have 27 28,600 arrests of violent
00:23:01feminists in just seven months alone because of your leadership and the
00:23:05dedication of the men and women at the FBI who want to go out there and do the
00:23:09job they were prevented from doing because that department used to be
00:23:12weaponized and politicized and this is what happens when you take out the fangs of
00:23:16weaponization this number is historic by every metric 28,000 people have been
00:23:21arrested violent felons alone and then when you go over there and look at some of
00:23:25these charts if you don't mind I'll just hop over here look at the metrics for not
00:23:31just violent crime but the homeland mr. president during your administration the FBI
00:23:36has found and located 5400 children that is a 30 percent increase year-to-date over the
00:23:44last administration violent crimes against children arrests alone are up ten percent
00:23:49gang arrests are up two hundred and ten percent in the last seven months alone
00:23:54and transnational organized crime which Stephen Miller has been a great partner in
00:23:58is up over twelve percent alone these numbers are historic just as a snapshot but
00:24:04just so people don't think we're focusing on violent crime alone the national
00:24:08security mission mr. president your leadership has never been stronger we have
00:24:12gone after espionage activities against our main counterparts in China Russia and Iran in
00:24:18we have had a 50 percent increase in espionage arrest alone in prosecution in Iran we have had a 50 percent increase again in espionage cases and in Russia we have a 33 percent increase in espionage cases alone
00:24:34when it comes to counterterrorism year-to-date we have a hundred and twenty-five arrests this year versus a hundred last year year-to-date alone and when it comes to the cyber criminal activities which are some of the largest enterprises plaguing everyday Americans
00:24:48this year you already have 252 arrests 52 arrests of violent cyber criminals who are stealing from senior citizens who are violating our children's rights and freedoms and who are violating everyday Americans these programs are record and some of the two of the things I'll finish with that I'm most proud of Mr. President this FBI
00:25:06fentanyl as you know it's a scourge that is killing our youth 100,000 plus a year to date the FBI has seized 1900 kilograms of fentanyl that's enough lethal doses to kill 127 million Americans alone to date and if that weren't enough Mr. President you said we have to go after the worst of the worst of the worst
00:25:24and you empowered our Department of Justice our Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General and the Deputy Director of the FBI led the charge not just on summer heat but he also led the charge to the FBI's ten most wanted fugitives these people have been on the run for years and in seven months you captured not one not two not three but four
00:25:54four of the FBI's most top ten fugitives four and just to put that in perspective Mr. President the Biden administration captured four in all four years you're on seven and we're going to get to ten we're going to get to ten of ten this includes a lady who murdered her six year old handicapped child and fled to India we got her in two months this includes a narco trafficker this includes a sex trafficker this includes another first three murder and gangbang these people were on the run because of the prior administration's reckless policies that destroyed our communities and you came in and
00:26:23the mandate said go after the worst of the worst this is just the beginning this is what happens when you let good cops be good cops at the FBI Mr. President I just want to thank you for your incredible leadership our brave partnership with prosecutors who know how to bring cases and make sure these arrests stick and that's what the Attorney General and the Deputy Attorney General led the charge across this country because arrests without prosecutions are meaningless we are deterring criminals from doing this activity we are preventing criminals from coming into America
00:26:53the crushing violent crime at the level before and defending his homeland sir and not to mention I almost forgot this one it took you sir two weeks to get the aggregate bomber Joe Biden had four years to look for him you got him in two weeks next to the interagency
00:27:06by the FBI and the CIA went to Pakistan and now 13 brave warriors who were sent to see murder because of a disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal they have justice their families have a peace of mind and we're going to continue to find the elders Mr. President on behalf of the FBI sir I just want to thank you
00:27:20President Trump the the men and women of law enforcement say two things to me repeatedly first you have taken the handcuffs off them and let them do their jobs and you let cops be cops that's why all this is happening the director the deputy director are working around the clock all of these great men and women in the FBI they have think about they have families
00:27:50at home and they are working during a government shutdown right now many of them have small children many of them I was talking to an agent this morning many of them have babies at home and they are working around the clock to not only keep our country but our world safe and that's what operation summer heat did thank you director and to the deputy director for everything you did on behalf of the department of justice and you're going to continue to keep doing and they set the stage
00:28:19for what we're doing in Memphis you're going to hear a lot more about that our joint task force next week but they set the stage for Memphis and last night alone in Memphis there are almost 70 arrests there were 12 guns seized and there was a 70 year old man arrested as a result of our operation in Memphis who raped a child under the age of three that one case makes everything we're doing worthwhile so thank you all for being here on behalf of both of us
00:28:49and I'm going to be here I'm going to bring it up I'm going to see you guys thank you Dr. Trump
00:28:54Dr. Trump thank you thank you Mr. President so this is a great day and I think there's stats that the director talked about which are important but I want to give two examples of what summer heat has done that that actually will apply hopefully to everybody in this room the first is for over four years during the last administration there was a hotel
00:29:11hotel in a town, the middle of a town in Alaska that was being run as a drug den. There were over
00:29:181,000 calls to 911 over four, four and a half year period. There were multiple violent crimes,
00:29:29drug dealers, overdoses, and murders at this one hotel, ruining a community. Summer heat went in
00:29:35there. It's not only arrested all the participants that were controlling the hotel, but seized the
00:29:40hotel. That's one example of what summer heat means to everyday Americans that just want to
00:29:46live in peace. The second example is a large narcotics trafficking group that was selling
00:29:51fentanyl in the state of Washington. They were shipping fentanyl and using commercial aircraft,
00:29:58putting fentanyl pills and powder in suitcases, flying them from the southwest border, mostly Arizona,
00:30:05all the way to Washington. It had been going on for an extremely long time, and the entire
00:30:11organization was arrested. I say those two examples because it's easy to look at the board
00:30:15and see 1,000 arrests. How much different is our communities now compared to the past four years?
00:30:22But there's actual life examples. Every one of these arrests means that our streets are safer,
00:30:27and that's because of the work of this administration of President Trump and Director Patel.
00:30:32So I will tell you, Attorney General Bondi and I are together every day with Director Patel,
00:30:37figuring out ways that we can continue to do this work, and it's not going to stop like the
00:30:43Attorney General said and like the President said. This is just the beginning or phase one or a start,
00:30:48whatever you want to say, but it will continue on. So thank you, Mr. President, and thank you very
00:30:52much, Director Patel. Mr. President, just one last thank you for the men and women at the FBI.
00:30:56You found a way to get these individuals paid during a government shutdown, our 1811 agents.
00:31:02On behalf of the FBI, it's a great debt that we owe you, sir. They're now allowed to pay for their
00:31:07families, so thank you. And the military. Good? That's right. Thank you. Okay, thank you very much.
00:31:12Any questions, please? Brian, go ahead.
00:31:16First of all, I know the feedback I'm getting from the American people, but they want to say thank you.
00:31:20Law and order is not an option in this country. It's a mandate. So I know the American people thank you for that.
00:31:25In terms of the guns that have been taken off the street, do you have a number of how many guns were
00:31:30taken away from someone that had a prior felony or a previous crime that perhaps we can prosecute
00:31:37that? Because I know that wasn't the case of a Joe Biden. We don't take guns off the streets of
00:31:41people that are allowed to have guns. So every gun that we're taking off the street is because it
00:31:46belongs to somebody who is not allowed to have it. Could be a felon. Could be somebody who hears illegally.
00:31:50There's all sorts of conditions. But if there's a gun taken off the streets by the FBI,
00:31:55it's because the person who has it is not allowed to. It's not somebody who's lawfully
00:31:58allowed to have it. So every single one of those guns were taken off of people that aren't all
00:32:02down. And not including the FBI, all of the other agencies. ATF alone since January 20th
00:32:08has removed over 25,000 illegal guns off our streets just since President Trump's been in
00:32:15office.
00:32:15And Mr. President, if I could follow up on that. Could there be any further conversation
00:32:19to have national concealed carry apply to actual D.C.? Like if you had a driver's license in Texas
00:32:27and you had a permit, of course you could drive.
00:32:29Well, as you know, they've been talking about that for a long time. It's an interesting question.
00:32:33A lot of people feel strongly both ways. But we are talking about that, Brian. Thank you.
00:32:37Mr. President, on Venezuelan's boats, I want to ask you, why not have the Coast Guard
00:32:44stop them, which it is empowered by a lot to do? You know, this way you can confirm who's
00:32:49on the boat and ensure that they're doing what they would suspect.
00:32:52Because we've been doing that for 30 years and it has been totally ineffective.
00:32:57They have faster boats. Some of these boats are seriously, I mean, they're world-class speed
00:33:03boats. And, but they're not faster than missiles. But we've been trying to do that for years and
00:33:09so much of the drugs, 25, 30 percent would come in through the seas. Right now we have, I would
00:33:14say, none coming in through the seas. In fact, I don't know about the fishing industry. If you want
00:33:19to go fishing, a lot of people aren't deciding to even go fishing. We've almost totally stopped
00:33:24it by sea. Now we'll stop it by land.
00:33:27But it never worked. It never worked when, you know, when you did it in a very politically
00:33:33correct manner. What's the next step in this war
00:33:36on cartels? And are you considering options, are you considering strikes on land?
00:33:40Well, I don't want to tell you exactly, but we are certainly looking at land now because we've
00:33:44got the sea very well under control. We've had a couple of days where there isn't a boat
00:33:49to be found. And that, I view that as a good thing, not a bad thing. But we had tremendous amounts
00:33:54coming in by boats, by very expensive boats. You know, they have a lot of money. Very fast, very expensive
00:33:59boats that were pretty big. And the way you look at it is, every boat that we knock out,
00:34:05we save 25,000 American lives. So every time you see a boat and you feel badly, you say,
00:34:11wow, that's rough. It is rough. But if you lose three people and save 25,000 people, these are
00:34:16people that are killing our population. Every boat is saving 25,000 lives. And you can see it.
00:34:23The boats get hit. And you see that fentanyl all over the ocean. It's like floating in bags.
00:34:28it's all over the place. And it's a, it's a tremendous, we're saving tremendous amounts of
00:34:35lives. Yeah, please.
00:34:36Mr. President, I know you've talked about, I have a question
00:34:39for you and then I also have a question for Director Patel. I know you talked about
00:34:42having some distaste for Boston recently. Is this one of the cities that you might
00:34:47be looking into? And can you give us a hint about other cities that you might be
00:34:51setting federal?
00:34:51You're saying for where? For where?
00:34:52For Boston. Yeah. Well, Boston has a, a bad mayor who at least is a reasonable IQ person.
00:34:59You know, most of them are low IQ. But, and they're so bad. I mean, what's going on in
00:35:04Chicago is just, you'd think the guy would say, hey, look, we have a problem, Mr. President.
00:35:09Could you come in and straighten it out? I could have that. We could have that done in a month
00:35:13if we had their cooperation. It's going to be done anyway. But we could have it done in a month.
00:35:18Yeah. Boston, she's got four areas that are, you know, wrong. And, you know, somebody said,
00:35:24would we take, would we think about taking the World Cup away from Boston if they don't
00:35:28straighten it out? And the answer is yes, we have the right to do that with FIFA.
00:35:32So if we think that L.A. is going to be bad or we think that applies a little bit to the
00:35:37Olympics too, but we'll talk about FIFA first. You know, FIFA is very hot. If we think there's any
00:35:42reason that, whether it's Boston or anywhere else, that they're not doing their job, we're going to
00:35:47take that, those World Cup games and move them someplace else. Thank you. And then,
00:35:52Director Patel, there's been so many conspiracy theories swirling around about the assassination
00:35:57of Charlie Kirk. Do you have any updates for us, especially in light of all the online content
00:36:01that everyone's been talking about? The only thing we deal with at the FBI and the Department
00:36:04of Justice is facts. And we delivered at record speed a manhunt to capture Charlie Kirk's
00:36:09alleged assassination in 33 hours. And if you put that in perspective to Luigi Mangione
00:36:13with a Boston bomber, they took them five days and a police officer lost their life in their manhunt.
00:36:17We are running out absolutely every single lead. And the best thing we can do to honor my friend
00:36:21Charlie Kirk's life is to make sure that everyone involved is prosecuted to the full extent of the
00:36:26law. And that's what we're focused on, investigating the facts, not trading and conspiracy theories.
00:36:30Okay. Mr. President, thank you so much. Thank you.
00:36:33In light of China's export curbs on rare earths, do you view India as a reliable partner
00:36:40going forward? And are you planning to meet Prime Minister Modi in Malaysia?
00:36:46Are you open to talks in terms of trade? Yeah, sure. He's a friend of mine.
00:36:49We have a great relationship. He just said that two days ago, as you know.
00:36:53We have a great relationship. No, we were not happy with him buying oil
00:36:57from Russia because that lets Russia continue on with this ridiculous war where they've lost a
00:37:02million and a half people, by the way. Russia has lost a million and a half people, soldiers, mostly.
00:37:07This is a war that should have never started, but it's a war that Russia should have won
00:37:11in the first week. And they're going into the fourth year. And I want to see it stop.
00:37:17So I was not happy that India was buying oil. And he assured me today that they will not be buying
00:37:23oil from Russia. That's a big stop. Now I got to get China to do the same thing.
00:37:28You know, that that is relatively easy compared to what we just did over the last
00:37:34week in the Middle East. Middle East was 3,000 years
00:37:38and we got it done. This is three years.
00:37:41And I think we'll get it done. I think that Putin, President Putin, I think is going to
00:37:46I think he wants to get it done. We'll see. There's a great animosity between him and Zelenskyy.
00:37:50You probably have noticed. And it's I think it's hurting the process. Yeah. Yeah, please.
00:37:56Mr. President, thank you. Curious. Why did you authorize the CIA to go into Venezuela?
00:38:02And is there more information you can share about these strikes on the alleged?
00:38:06Well, I can't do that. But I authorized for two reasons, really.
00:38:10Number one, they have emptied their prisons into the United States of America.
00:38:15They came in through the
00:38:18well, they came in through the border. They came in because we had an open border policy.
00:38:22And as soon as I heard that, I said a lot of these countries, they're not the only country,
00:38:25but they're the worst abuser and they've entered there. They've they've allowed thousands and
00:38:31thousands of prisoners, mental institution, people from mental institutions, insane asylums
00:38:38emptied out into the United States. We're bringing them back. But that's a really bad
00:38:43and they did it at a level that probably not many, many countries have done it, but not like Venezuela.
00:38:48They were down and dirty. And the other thing of drugs, we have a lot of drugs coming in from Venezuela
00:38:53and a lot of the Venezuelan drugs come in through the sea. So you get to see that.
00:38:57But we're going to stop them by land also. Does the CIA have authority to take out Maduro?
00:39:02Oh, I don't want to answer a question like that. That's a ridiculous question for me to be given.
00:39:07Not really a ridiculous question, but wouldn't it be a ridiculous question for me to answer?
00:39:12But I think Venezuela is feeling heat, but I think a lot of other countries are feeling heat too.
00:39:17We're not going to let this country, our country, be ruined because
00:39:21other people want to drop, as you say, their worst. They have given us their worst.
00:39:26They've loaded up our country with prisoners, with with mentally ill people that are
00:39:32seriously ill, criminally ill. And we're not going to take it. And so, I mean, it's just one of those
00:39:37things. And I can tell you, we've taken care of the sea. There's nobody and we're watching.
00:39:42We're watching. And if we see it, we'll save it. Yeah, please.
00:39:46On the ships, though, sir, there are Republicans and Democrats up on the Hill
00:39:51concerned that in the briefings they've gotten about those attacks,
00:39:54they're not necessarily getting information about who was on them
00:39:57and what exactly was on those ships. Can you ensure that-
00:39:59Well, well, but they are given information that they were loaded up with drugs.
00:40:03And that's the thing that matters. When they're loaded up with drugs, they're fair game.
00:40:08And every one of those ships were- they're not ships. They're boats. They're speed boats.
00:40:12They're extremely fast, record-setting-type speed boats. They cost a lot of money.
00:40:17And they have a lot of money because they're drug sellers.
00:40:20But they know one thing, and they all have the same thing in common.
00:40:24There's- there's drug dust. They call it drug dust. They call it fentanyl dust.
00:40:30All over the boat after those bombs go off. And you- you can take a long-
00:40:34The Press Press The Press Press We know. We know before.
00:40:37We know when they go out. We know we have much information about each boat that goes out.
00:40:43Deep, strong information. Yeah, please.
00:40:46The Press Press Sir, you're going to have Vladimir Zelensky here this week.
00:40:49What is your message at this stage of the war for him?
00:40:53And shy of Tom Hanks-
00:40:54The President To- to who is that?
00:40:55The Press Press For Zelensky.
00:40:56The Press Press No, we're looking at other options. We are.
00:41:06President Zelensky is coming in. I'm not a fan of the war. I'm not a fan of the way it started.
00:41:11It should have never happened. It wouldn't have started if I were president. The election was rigged.
00:41:16And because of that, we lost- a lot of lives have been lost because of that war. Not American lives.
00:41:23But if I can save a lot of lives, that's why I'm in it. I want to save lives.
00:41:27I've- I've had eight wars. The Prime Minister of Pakistan got up the other day, said so beautifully,
00:41:33he says, you saved millions of lives. He told that to a group of people right in this office.
00:41:38He said the President saved millions of lives. And I think what he's referring to is the fact that
00:41:43that that would have been with India nuclear war. That was getting very close. You know,
00:41:46seven planes, they don't talk about it, but seven aircraft were shot down. In fact,
00:41:51we have the new ambassador to India right here. They're well represented.
00:41:56You better represent us, not them. Okay.
00:42:00But Sergio is going to do a great job. He's going to do a great job. But,
00:42:03no, we'll be talking about the war with- with him. And we'll be talking about-
00:42:07I mean, they w- they want to go offensive. Uh, I'll make a determination on that. But,
00:42:14they would like to go offensive. You know that. And we'll have to make a determination.
00:42:18Can I follow the question? Given you have the FBI Director and Attorney General here today,
00:42:22Jim Jordan has asked Jack Smith to appear in front of the House Judiciary.
00:42:25You mean deranged Jack? He's a deranged individual, yeah.
00:42:28He's asked him to- Well, they should. I'm- I'm surprised it takes so long.
00:42:32You know, we're talking about violent crime. What about the crime against a political opponent?
00:42:36That's what we have to talk about, too. The reporter would like to understand the full extent to
00:42:40which the Biden-Harris Justice Department weaponized federal law enforcement. Uh,
00:42:45what do you think the committee will find out? I think it was the worst weaponization
00:42:49of a political opponent in the history of the world, let alone this country.
00:42:54And I hope that everybody's, you know, they're involved in it. I'm not. I- I'm the one that had to
00:42:59suffer through it and ultimately win. But, uh, what they did was criminal. Uh, deranged Jack Smith,
00:43:06in my opinion, is a criminal. And I noticed, uh, his- his interviewer was- I think that was Weissman.
00:43:13And I hope they're going to look into Weissman, too. Weissman's a bad guy.
00:43:17And he had somebody in Lisa, who was his puppet, worked in the office, uh, really as the top person.
00:43:24And I think that, uh, she should be looked at very strongly. It- there was tremendous criminal activity
00:43:31having to do. If we don't have fair elections in this country, we're not going to have a country.
00:43:35And I've said it from the beginning. Fair elections and border- borders. And we need also fair press.
00:43:42Because if you don't have fair press, it's very tough. And, uh, we've got the strongest border of anybody- nobody has a border.
00:43:49We have a border where the numbers just came out again. You saw zero people came in illegally.
00:43:54Now, we do take people into our country legally. But zero people. But, you know, you're talking
00:43:59about a different subject. You're talking about political crime. They have committed massive
00:44:05political crime. I hope they're looking at Shifty Schiff. I hope they're looking at all these
00:44:10people. And I'm allowed to find out. I'm allowed to- you know, I'm, in theory, the chief law enforcement
00:44:15officer. But I have a very good, talented group. This is about something else. But I hope they're
00:44:20looking at political crime. Because there's never been so much political crime against a
00:44:25political opponent as what I had to go through. They raided my house in Florida. It was an illegal
00:44:31raid. I have a lawsuit that was doing very well. And when I became president, I said,
00:44:36I'm sort of suing myself. I don't know what- and he has settled the lawsuit. I'll say,
00:44:40give me X dollars. Right? And I don't know what to do with the lawsuit. It's a great lawsuit.
00:44:45And now I won. It sort of looks bad. I'm suing myself. Right? So, I don't know. But,
00:44:49but that was a lawsuit that was very strong, very powerful. They raided illegally my house
00:44:55in Florida, Mar-a-Lago. They went through the drawers of my young son.
00:45:01They went through all of the cabinets and drawers of the First Lady. She walked in,
00:45:06she said, wow, what happened? Because she's very meticulous. And this wasn't so meticulous.
00:45:11As she looked into the drawers and she saw everything a mess. It's- it's- what they did
00:45:17against the person that just got out of office. And then you look at these corrupt people. You look
00:45:22at Hunter Biden. You look at the signature. As an example, the auto pen. I just signed so many
00:45:28different things. An admiral, a four-star general. I'm signing them left and right. The commissions.
00:45:34And by the way, I want to compliment John Thune. And also Mike, our great speaker. But John Thune,
00:45:40all of a sudden, I'm getting these things by the hundreds. I was getting one every two weeks.
00:45:44It would have been four years before you got them in wars. You would have had some that didn't even
00:45:48get in. All because of Democrat obstruction. So John Thune did a great job. I signed- I must have
00:45:55signed 200 into the administration. We're just about caught up. It's amazing. And so,
00:46:00compliments to John. He had to do some things that were very tough to do that
00:46:04he didn't want to do. But he was forced to do it by the Democrats. And as far as the shutdown is
00:46:09concerned, this is a Democrat-Schumer shutdown. And he's trying to do it to get relevance back
00:46:15into the party because he's a loser. I've known him all his life. He's always been sort of a loser,
00:46:19but an intelligent one. But I think he's losing IQ points with time. I think that happens. I hope it
00:46:25hasn't happened with me. I know if it did, you guys will let me know about it very quickly.
00:46:30One question on violent crime, sir. Here in D.C., a judge has given the two teenagers that beat up
00:46:37ex-julge staffer Big Ball's probation in no jail time. Is this justice?
00:46:44Jeanine Pirro is doing a fantastic job. And she is beside herself because you have these radical
00:46:49left judges that they beat the hell out of this guy. And it was many people against this one guy
00:46:56who was really trying to protect his girlfriend. He didn't want his hooded over the door because
00:47:01but they really beat him up badly. That just happened, right? Wow. That's terrible. I think the judge
00:47:08should be ashamed of himself. That's a big problem. You know, they can do their job and then they go into
00:47:14a court and the people are protected by these. I don't know where they come from. Where do these people
00:47:18come from? Where did the judges come from? I want to compliment on behalf of Pam and Todd and all of us,
00:47:24because cash. I think that Jeanine has done a fantastic job. And the case I heard was like
00:47:30flawless. It's a flawless case. They have them on tape. They have everything. And then a judge gives
00:47:35them a little probation. These are these are rough guys. And they're young. And if that happens,
00:47:42they're going to grow up. They're going to be real bad. They're going to cause they're going to cause a
00:47:46lot of problems. Yeah, please. Go ahead.
00:47:48The Pressure Board has just gotten back to India. What were the conversations like with
00:47:54Prime Minister Modi and the other countries? I think they were great. He reported to me that
00:47:59you're great. He's a great man. You know, Modi is a great man. That he loves Trump. Now,
00:48:06I don't know if the word love, I don't want you to take that any different. I don't want to destroy his
00:48:11political career. Okay. But you have to understand, I've watched India for years. It's an incredible
00:48:15country. And every single year, you'd have a new leader. I mean, some would be in there for a few
00:48:21months. And this was year after year after year. And my friend has been there now for a long time.
00:48:26And he is. And he's assured me there will be no oil purchased from Russia. I don't know. Maybe
00:48:31that's a breaking story. Can I say that? Would you say there will be no oil? He's not buying his
00:48:35oil from Russia. It started. You know, you can't do it immediately. It's a little bit of a process.
00:48:40But the process is going to be over with soon. And all we want from President Putin is stop this.
00:48:46Stop killing Ukrainians and stop killing Russians because he's killing a lot of Russians. Again,
00:48:53it doesn't make him look good. It's a war that he should have won in one week. And he's now going
00:48:58into his fourth year. That does not look this make this big so-called war machine look good.
00:49:05But he could make a settlement. We're willing to settle. I thought we had a deal.
00:49:11The hatred of the two leaders is very, you know, it's an obstacle. It's an obstacle. There's no
00:49:16question about it. But I thought we had a deal two months ago. Who would think I created peace in
00:49:22the Middle East and can't get the two guys to settle? But I think we'll get them. But if India doesn't buy oil,
00:49:30it makes it much easier. And they're not going to buy it. They assured me they will.
00:49:34within a short period of time, they will not be buying oil from Russia.
00:49:37And they'll go back to Russia after the war is open. Over. Jennifer.
00:49:41On the shutdown, sir, are FBI officials being paid right now? Are all the FBI employees being paid?
00:49:46And are all the employees being paid?
00:49:47Well, that's what I understand. I hope so.
00:49:49Thanks to you, everybody. Thanks to your great work, Mr. President.
00:49:52The 18-11 special agents at the FBI are going to receive their paychecks.
00:49:55We got a lot of people paid, actually. We got the people that we want paid paid.
00:50:00Okay. And we want the FBI paid. We want the military paid. We got the people that we want paid.
00:50:05And I'll tell you, the Democrats, they don't talk about this. You know, we're getting rid of programs
00:50:11that we didn't like, but that were negotiated in, but we didn't like. We're terminating those programs.
00:50:17And they're going to be terminated on a permanent basis. And it's thousands of people. And it's,
00:50:22it's, you know, billions of dollars. We're getting rid of a lot of things that we never wanted
00:50:27because of the fact that they made this stupid move. And they don't want to talk about it.
00:50:32You know, they have their day coming up. I hear very few people are going to be there, by the way.
00:50:35But they have their day coming up. And they want to have their day in the sun.
00:50:40But they should really make a deal. So what we're doing, I mean, they call him
00:50:45Darth Vader, but he's actually a very nice person. Russell Vogt. But Russell Vogt is
00:50:52really terminating tremendous numbers of Democrat projects. This is not only jobs. I mean,
00:50:59the project in Manhattan, the project in New York. It's billions and billions of dollars that Schumer
00:51:05has worked 20 years to get. It's terminated. Tell him it's terminated, Jennifer. All right.
00:51:12Mr. President, sir, what is your understanding of the pace of returning
00:51:18the deceased hostages? Are you pleased?
00:51:20Well, they're looking for them. Absolutely. They're looking. So we have the
00:51:24living hostages all back. They returned some more today.
00:51:27It's a gruesome process. I almost hate to talk about it. But they're digging. They're actually
00:51:33digging. There are areas where they're digging and they're finding a lot of bodies.
00:51:38Then they have to separate the bodies. You wouldn't believe this. This is
00:51:41And some of those bodies have been in there a long time. And some of them are under rubble.
00:51:46They have to remove rubble. But there are graves. And some are in tunnels that died in tunnels
00:51:55that are way down under the earth. And the tunnels are like three feet. Can you believe it? Three
00:52:00feet high. They lived like this for a long period of time. It's a horrible. It's a horrible atrocity.
00:52:06At the same time, uh, we meaning Israel, but I knew everything they were doing pretty much.
00:52:12I knew most of the things they were doing, but they've killed probably 70,000
00:52:17of these people, Hamas. And I said, it's time now. So we'll see what happens. We'll also see what
00:52:25happens. Your next question is going to be the weapons. We want the weapons to be
00:52:29given up, sacrificed. And they've agreed to do it. Now they have to do it. And if they don't do it,
00:52:33we'll do it.
00:52:34The Pressure that we had the head of CENTCOM today suggest that Hamas needs to
00:52:38hurry up and disarm and follow your comprehensive plan.
00:52:42That it was the head of CENTCOM saying that. Is that not a signal to Hamas, to the rest of the
00:52:46world that at some point the U.S. military may more directly engage?
00:52:50We won't need the U.S. military. We won't need it.
00:52:53Because we're very much involved in it. If we weren't involved, there wouldn't be peace.
00:52:58If we didn't destroy the nuclear capability of Iran, that deal would have never happened for two
00:53:05reasons. The Arab nations would not have felt bold enough to do it because you have
00:53:10a very powerful, at that time, Iran. It's not powerful anymore. Between what we,
00:53:15what Israel and us did, because, you know, the attack was, was, if you look at it, we helped them
00:53:20very much. They will be the first to tell you, including shooting down thousands of drones that
00:53:25were coming into Israel. You know, we shot them down. We were shooting them down like it was target
00:53:31practice. But we shot down thousands of drones and missiles also going into Israel. But between what we
00:53:38did to Iran that way, with the, you know, conventional, we will call it, and what that
00:53:44beautiful, see that beautiful plane? That B-2, I noticed it on the desk. I always thought it was
00:53:48beautiful, but I never understood it. Now I understand. It took hundreds of thousands of bombs
00:53:55in the form of two, but hundreds of thousands of pounds of bombs. And every single bomb hit perfectly.
00:54:02Then they sent tomahawks in. They sent 30 tomahawks on top of it. And that was totally, you know,
00:54:08CNN said, well, maybe it wasn't as bad as, you know, as Trump said, because I said obliterated.
00:54:14Obliterated is not a strong enough word, actually. And you saw the Atomic Energy Commission came out
00:54:19and said the word obliteration is very, very. Think of it. They came in under potential fire.
00:54:28They entered Iran airspace late at night in the dark. No moon. The moon was low for a reason.
00:54:35It was the time we picked it. Couldn't see anything. And they hit every target. And they
00:54:40weren't hit. Nobody saw that plane. That plane is stealth. Nobody saw it. The problem with that is
00:54:45it may be stealth today, but tomorrow it won't be. And we just ordered about 20 brand new B-2 bombers.
00:54:52It's unbelievable as a weapon. I know Putin, when I was riding with him in Alaska, we passed a lot of them.
00:54:58And he said, that really did the trick. I said, yeah, it did. It's amazing. The flying wing.
00:55:04But you still see no reason for the U.S. military to get involved in Gaza?
00:55:08No, I don't see that, no. I think we're going to handle it very well. We'll be helping Israel.
00:55:12But we have other countries that are now. You know, we signed many, many countries signed. And
00:55:16many of those countries relatively are very strong military powers. And Hamas has no support. See,
00:55:23Hamas had the support of Iran. And now Iran says, don't get us involved. The last time they got them
00:55:29involved didn't work out too well. So they used to have the support of Iran. Today, Iran is
00:55:36they're trying to survive. You know, when I heard the reports two weeks ago, Iran's looking to build
00:55:41a nuclear weapon. I said, don't worry about it. They got a lot of things they want to do before nuclear
00:55:46weapons. I said, the last thing they want to do is a nuclear weapon. It didn't work out. And if they did a
00:55:52nuclear weapon before they got even close, that site would be attacked and it would be wiped out.
00:55:57Mr. President, you're meeting with President Xi in a few weeks.
00:56:01Yeah. If you can't come to an agreement or a deal at that meeting,
00:56:05are we in for a sustained trade war with China?
00:56:07Well, you're in one now. Look, we have 100 percent tariff. If we didn't have tariffs,
00:56:15we would be exposed as being a nothing. We would have no defense.
00:56:20You know, they've used tariffs on us, but we've never had anybody sitting in that chair that
00:56:26felt the need to do it. And they've allowed us to be 37 trillion dollars in debt, et cetera, et cetera.
00:56:34We tariffs are a very important tool for our defense, for our national security. If we don't
00:56:40have tariffs, we're not going to have national security. As an example, if you look at Pakistan
00:56:46and Iran, I told them I was in the midst of negotiating a trade deal with actually with Iran
00:56:53and Pakistan was going to be in line. And because of tariffs, they all want to negotiate much
00:56:59differently. We're making a good deal. And then I heard that they're shooting at each other. And I
00:57:03said during one of my conversations, are you guys going to go to war? Two nuclear powers we are
00:57:09thinking about. I said, here's the deal. You go to war. I'm going to put a 200 percent tariff. I'm going to
00:57:14stop you from doing any business in the United States. I said it to both of them. Within 24 hours,
00:57:20the war ended. That would have been a nuclear war. And again, the prime minister of Pakistan,
00:57:26who was here two weeks ago, said that that man saved many millions of lives in front of a whole
00:57:32group of people because he thought it was going to be war. But when it came to war or having to pay
00:57:37massive tariffs, the tariffs overrode. That's why it's so important. Not only the money, we're taking in
00:57:44trillions of dollars. Not only the money, the power to keep peace, the power to be used for good
00:57:51is enormous. But a lot of people didn't understand tariffs. It's also made us very rich.
00:57:58We have a big case coming up in the Supreme Court. And I will tell you,
00:58:02that's one of the most important cases in the history of our country. Because if we don't win that case,
00:58:07we will be a weakened, troubled, financial mess for many, many years to come. I don't even know
00:58:17if survivable — you know, survivable is a good term. And if we do, we're going to be the most
00:58:23powerful economic country in the world. And all we're doing is using them as a defense against what's
00:58:30what took place for many years. China would charge us tariffs. It was incredible. But we weren't allowed
00:58:35to charge — and we were — so we're allowed to do whatever we want. We just had presidents that
00:58:39didn't want to do it for whatever reason. And it was nothing. But of the eight wars — I was saying
00:58:45seven — of the eight wars, I would say tariffs are directly responsible for me ending six of them.
00:58:54Five or six. Without the tariffs, you have wars raging all over the world with the tariffs.
00:59:00Other than Russia, we have no wars out there. And we've made a lot of good friends, too.
00:59:07Tariffs are so important to our national security. If we don't have tariffs,
00:59:15we don't have national security. Our country would suffer a level that — because they use so
00:59:23strongly on us. As an example, the European Union. They won't take our cars. They won't take our
00:59:28agriculture. They won't take anything. But they send their cars in — Mercedes, BMW, Volkswagen — by
00:59:34the millions. We don't send any cars. They don't take them. They were tariffing us out.
00:59:40Agricultural products — they don't take our agriculture. They want their farmers to do it.
00:59:44I understand that. But it was very unfair. And they were tariffing our product — they're keeping
00:59:49out by using tariffs. And we didn't use them, but I used them. And now we made one of the great deals with
00:59:55with your $650 billion they pay us. And we've evened it out. It's really a good thing to see.
01:00:03And you have to understand, they've all signed — Japan, South Korea.
01:00:07I mean, South Korea, $350 billion up front. Japan, $650 billion. And they've all agreed to it. They're
01:00:17all happy. But before, it was a total ripoff. And if we don't have the use of tariffs,
01:00:23we have no national security. This country will have no financial security, will not have
01:00:27national security. And the people that brought the lawsuit are people that are
01:00:32aligned with foreign nations that are now being treated fairly, as opposed to just ripping us off
01:00:38and ripping us asunder. So — but if we don't — if we are not allowed to use what other people use
01:00:44against us, there's no defense. It'll be a disaster for America. That's why I think I'm going to go to the
01:00:51Supreme Court to watch it. I've not done that. And I had some pretty big cases.
01:00:55This is — I think it's — I think it's one of the most important cases ever brought,
01:01:01because we will be defenseless against the world. Okay?
01:01:06The President, can you go to the tariff case?
01:01:09The President, did you have one? Yes, please.
01:01:10The Press, thank you, Mr. President. I want to ask you about the Georgia Senate race.
01:01:14I know it's very early, but there's several Republicans in that field that are vying for your endorsement.
01:01:18The President, a lot of good people in that field.
01:01:20Yes. The President, I know all of them, actually.
01:01:22I haven't made a decision on that, but you have some very good people in the Georgia Senate race.
01:01:27Well, Governor Holt has endorsed —
01:01:30The President, no, no, the governor has — he's spoken to me about it a lot.
01:01:32He likes that candidate a lot. And I understand that. I haven't made a decision yet.
01:01:39But I'm following that race very carefully. I think it's very important for Georgia
01:01:43to get a real senator, because the senator they have now is a horrible senator.
01:01:47He allows all the crime, all the borders. You have open borders.
01:01:51I mean, his whole philosophy is a disaster. That's not representative of the people of Georgia.
01:01:56I know the people of Georgia. I won Georgia three times, but they say twice, okay?
01:02:01I won it very big the last time. And I won it big the first time. And I won it big the second time.
01:02:07But we had criminals that didn't allow — I mean, they — I hope they're going to go into that.
01:02:12I hope they go into the votes which are being stored in Fulton County,
01:02:16and take a look at — a real look at those votes, okay? Because I won it the second time, too.
01:02:21But I know Georgia very well. I love Georgia. Those people are great.
01:02:25And they deserve a good senator, because the man they have now is a
01:02:29weak, ineffective person. Okay.
01:02:32Mr. President, by the way, you won Georgia three times.
01:02:39Yeah, I agree. Do you agree with me?
01:02:41I do. He's the media. For someone that spends a lot of time in Georgia,
01:02:44I believe you won that. I really have a question.
01:02:47You know, the word believe isn't strong enough, right? You know —
01:02:50I do. There you go.
01:02:52It's true. I know I won, too. Oh, we have the great Newt Gingrich.
01:02:55Newt, you agree with us? Good. Otherwise, I'd have him dismissed immediately.
01:03:00You know, his wife, as you know, is becoming an ambassador to a great country,
01:03:04Calista. So congratulations. And we're going to take a picture. And the only reason I'm doing it — he
01:03:10speaks so well of me. He said, I'll go down as the greatest president in history. And then he blew it.
01:03:16He said, I'm not sure if I put him above Washington or Lincoln. So I'm not that happy about that, dude.
01:03:24I've got a question about the weaponization of the DOJ. The media often says your department
01:03:29is weaponizing the DOJ. That's the opposite.
01:03:32It's the opposite. Todd, you represented President Trump and probably the greatest weaponization
01:03:37of the DOJ by Alvin Bragg. You know firsthand, if you can describe what you saw under the Biden
01:03:44administration and how they weaponized the DOJ. Well, I mean, I think it's hard to describe
01:03:50what happened in the last four years under President Trump. Alvin Bragg, a local prosecutor,
01:03:58his office staffed by some of the media, Jack Smith, picked as a special counsel,
01:04:04staffed his entire office with DOJ prosecutors. And then there are countless things that happen.
01:04:09All in writing, most of them on the docket that require no explanation except a complete
01:04:15abomination of the place of the attorney on their own right now and the director itself.
01:04:20So when people talk about this department weaponizing, it's embarrassing. Because there's
01:04:26no scenario where you can look at what we're doing, restoring justice, doing the right thing in every
01:04:31single case, and say that that's weaponization, and yet remain eerily silent about what happened for the past
01:04:39three years. I mean, you read these articles and giggle because it cannot be true that people really
01:04:45think that what they did to him, not once, not twice, I'm still counting three, four times,
01:04:52but we're the ones that are weaponizing. So this man is not weaponizing the Department of Justice.
01:04:56We're not weaponizing the Department of Justice. It's the opposite. I mean, and also nobody questions
01:05:02what I'm saying because it's true because we all lived the past four years. So listen.
01:05:07They never want to bring up the details. But I watch the fake news and, oh, he's weaponized.
01:05:14And he wants to send them to prison. He wants all this. They indicted me like five times.
01:05:22I took a mugshot. Who would have thought it turned out to my favor because it was a good shot.
01:05:28But I had to take a mugshot. It's right out there in the door, New York Post,
01:05:31front page of the every paper in the world. I had a mugshot. They wanted to send me. Nobody says that.
01:05:38They say he's acting very, very tough. He's acting unfair. Let me tell you,
01:05:44if they've been nice to anybody, it's to those criminals
01:05:48because they are so good having to do with all of the things we're talking about today with violent crime.
01:05:53But if anything, I think this Justice Department has been so respectful of the law
01:06:00because the other Justice Department with Rita or Lisa and all of that scum, real scum,
01:06:08what they did to the political opponent of a guy that has a seriously low IQ. Now, in his case,
01:06:15it was low based on his career, but it got real low. Okay. It was descending rapidly. But what they did
01:06:27to go after his political opponent is legendary. Worse than any third world country, banana republic.
01:06:35And what we're doing is nothing. Are you kidding? Nothing. They write stories. Why aren't they doing this, this?
01:06:45And we'll leave. I don't have to leave it up to them, but I choose to at this moment, at least.
01:06:52But there's never been anybody treated in the history of politics. You know, they say the two worst treated
01:06:58presidents by the media, et cetera, was that man right there, the late, great Abraham Lincoln.
01:07:06And this grant right there, Andrew Jackson. They say Andrew Jackson was treated
01:07:12terribly. They give him number one and number two. But that was before I came along, Newt.
01:07:17I say I have number one times 10. Nobody's been treated like I've been treated.
01:07:23And I did a great job. You know, we had a great first term
01:07:26and we had one of the most successful economies in history, et cetera. I rebuilt the military.
01:07:31We did a tremendous amount. The last part, we had a horrible thing called COVID and we handled that
01:07:39well. We made ventilators for nations every all over the world. I mean, we did a great job,
01:07:45probably never get credit for it. Look at the therapeutics, the Regeneron, all the different
01:07:49things, the vaccines, all the things we did. We did a great job, but we had a focus on that.
01:07:54But we had the best economy in the history of our country. We're blowing it away right now.
01:08:00Look at the stock market. It hit another all-time high today. That's 48 days out of the few days
01:08:06that I've served. 48 days have already hit record highs. And we have, maybe most importantly, the
01:08:12number we have now. We're saying 17. It's over $18 trillion is being poured into our country. It's
01:08:20because of the election and because of tariffs. Without the tariffs, you wouldn't have probably
01:08:2518 cents. It's because of the tariffs, because there are no tariffs if they build in our,
01:08:30on our country, in our country. And they understand that. So we have medical companies coming over. We
01:08:36have the AI. We're dominating China in AI. Everybody said that's impossible. We're dominating.
01:08:42I'm letting these massive plants build their own electric generating plants. They're becoming
01:08:46utilities in addition to everything. Maybe they'll make more money with that. Who knows?
01:08:50But they're building their own electric because we have an old grid. You wouldn't be able to do that.
01:08:55And we're dominating China. We're dominating with AI, which seems to be the new big thing. That's the
01:09:00new internet. That's the new whatever. So we're very happy with the job we're doing. I'm very happy with
01:09:06the job they're doing. But when you tell me about attacking a political opponent, there's never been
01:09:12and I'm a legitimate opponent. I watched my son. He's got the number one bestselling book now. My son,
01:09:17Eric, he's a wonderful kid. That guy spent so much time with subpoenas. He got more subpoenas than
01:09:22anybody in the history of our country. Think of it. And he's an innocent, good boy. He's a good kid.
01:09:28He's always been a good kid. All of my children are good. They went through hell. My children went through
01:09:34federal grand juries on a hoax. Think of it. You have Adam Schiff and Hillary Clinton and others
01:09:40make up a hoax and then wanting to put so they know it's a hoax and they go before the press say,
01:09:47Donald Trump Jr. will go to jail because of what he's done with Russia. I'll never forget. I get a call
01:09:55from my son, Don, and he said, Dad, I'm being accused of something with Russia. I don't know anything
01:10:01about Russia. He didn't know anything about it. Think of it, how bad they are.
01:10:07They say he'll go to prison for the rest of his life. He knew nothing about it on a hoax.
01:10:13The Russian hoax. Russia, Russia, Russia hoax. On a story that they made up. And they made it up
01:10:22in order to explain why Hillary Clinton lost an election that she lost by pretty good numbers.
01:10:27the second one that this one actually second one was even better. But the third one,
01:10:32this one was a too big to rig. It was just too big to rig. They would have rigged. They tried to rig it.
01:10:37But think of it. They want to send my children to jail, but they were after Don in particular.
01:10:43I'll never forget Adam Shifty Schiff, a total crooked guy, lying in Congress, making up a phone
01:10:49conversation that I have with you. Totally made up. Then when he heard it was taped,
01:10:54he wanted to disappear. And Nancy Pelosi went crazy because they wanted to impeach me
01:11:00based on the conversation that was made up. When they heard the tape, everybody, you know,
01:11:04I won it unanimously in the Republican Party. I got every single vote, something that never happens.
01:11:09And I beat it. But think of it. They want to put my son in jail
01:11:15for something that they made up. So they know they made it up. And they say he will serve
01:11:21the rest of his life in prison. These are sick, bad people. And don't tell me about us going after
01:11:28them. If anything, we're we've been very, very soft. I wouldn't be that soft. I'll tell you that.
01:11:33Thank you very much, everybody.
01:12:03Thank you very much.
01:12:16Thank you very much.
