00:00Stephen, thank you very much. To everything you said, yes and amen.
00:05And General, thank you for your leadership. Attorney General, thank you for being here,
00:08for backing us up along the way. To the entire team, to the soldiers here,
00:14thank you for everything you're doing. Thank you for waiting out here in the sun.
00:18I'm to blame. Sorry I had a meeting go long. I never want to make a formation stand out any
00:23longer
00:23than it has to, because I've stood in your formation before, waiting for somebody to show up
00:28so I can get on and do my job. And that's the beautiful part about what you do.
00:33You do your job no matter what. In fact, this background noise this morning is perfect.
00:40It's the sound of ingrates, of ingratitude, of people who are so blinded by ideology
00:49they can't see law and order and common sense in front of them.
00:54That there's nothing ideological about this group.
00:56There's nothing political about this exercise.
01:01Law and order is something all Americans deserve.
01:05Black, white, rich, poor, man or woman from D.C. or far-flung places in this country.
01:10And the beautiful thing is, when I look out at this group, that's all of you.
01:15From all across this great country, you're not from Washington, most of you, but this is your capital.
01:22And you believe in this 250th year that it should be safe and it should be secure for every single
01:29citizen that lives here
01:30and every single citizen that comes to visit in this 250th year.
01:35And you do it whether it's cold, whether it's raining, whether it's, well, it doesn't snow here very often,
01:40whether it's snowing or whether it's 100 degrees on the 4th of July.
01:44See, these ingrates will fade away.
01:47They'll go back to wherever they came from.
01:49You will do your job.
01:51And you will do it professionally, with courage, boldly, assisting with arrests, helping people who need help.
02:01The crime rate here has dropped in staggering amounts.
02:04And the media won't want to admit it because, of course, they'd have to give credit to President Trump.
02:09And then they'd have to give credit to the Department of War or to Stephen Miller.
02:14But courageous men like President Trump and Stephen, who said enough is enough,
02:19are the reason why this city is a safe and beautiful place 250 years into our great republic.
02:26And it's incredible Americans like you who ignore the noise and you do your job.
02:31And you do it with courage and you do it with professionalism.
02:34And you do it because you love your country, which is why you raise your right hand in the first
02:39place.
02:40It's why you put this uniform on to begin with.
02:43It's because you, this town, loves to talk about elites.
02:47And there's a lot of famous people in this town.
02:50But when I talk about elites, I'm talking about all of you.
02:54The real 1%.
02:55The real 1% of America who raised your right hand to serve something bigger than yourself
02:59when you could have done anything else.
03:01And then you do the difficult, tough job that no one else is willing to do.
03:05And you stand beside law enforcement here and you ensure that our capital is safe and secure.
03:11It's a righteous and beautiful mission.
03:14And what an honor it is to stand with you in the 250th year of our great republic.
03:19Where it has always required men and women like you for 250 years to stand up and do the right
03:28thing when it's difficult.
03:29And that's precisely what you have done in this D.C. safe and beautiful mission.
03:35I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Sarah Beckstrom and Andy Wolfe.
03:40We lost Sarah and Andy was almost killed and has had a near miraculous recovery.
03:47I just want to give a moment of silence as we remember Sarah and Andrew this morning.
04:07Thank you and amen.
04:09They died so that others may live.
04:11And as the Bible says, there's no higher calling.
04:14You are willing to put your life on the line for other people.
04:17It's a testament to who you are.
04:18Thank you for keeping this city safe.
04:20You make our country proud at 250 years and future generations will stand on your shoulders to ensure America's capital
04:28and this great republic endures for another 250.
04:32It's an honor to serve you.
04:34And please know every single day we have your back in everything that you do.
04:39God bless you.
04:40God bless our capital.
04:42And God bless America at 250 years.
04:44Thank you very much.
