00:00I'm so glad you brought this up, Trace, because it's a really underreported story.
00:03And so many Americans and their families have suffered because of the deaths of fentanyl.
00:08And President Trump always says, he says, no drugs, no drinking, no smoking.
00:11And he's totally right.
00:12But so many Americans, unfortunately, do struggle with addiction.
00:15And it's because of drugs like fentanyl that are highly addictive.
00:18And we have to remember that it wasn't just millions of people who came across our wide
00:22open border under Biden.
00:24It was drugs.
00:24And it was drugs that killed Americans.
00:26I want to mention also there have been zero, zero border crossings the last 14 months
00:32under President Trump.
00:33That's what a change of leadership does.
00:34Not only that, the president has gone further.
00:36He's designated drug cartels for the first time in our nation's history as foreign national
00:41terrorist organizations, meaning they now share the same designation as Hezbollah, which they
00:45absolutely deserve.
00:46So bang up job by the president.
00:48I mean, I was talking about this, Katie, where, you know, a lot of times we on the air say,
00:52listen, you know, the chaos happened.
00:54People say, oh, Trump chaos.
00:55The chaos happened in the previous administration when you let all those illegal immigrants in.
01:00Cleaning up the chaos can sometimes be messy, but it's necessary.
01:03And that's what we have been seeing for the past 18 months.
01:06Absolutely.
01:07And President Trump is right.
01:08He's not getting enough praise for the decrease in fentanyl deaths.
01:12And the other component of this trace is how tough he was with China.
01:15He said to China, I will keep a 20 percent tariff no matter what, as long as you continue
01:21manufacturing fentanyl precursors, and they dropped it.
01:24That combined with the lowest, if not to none, border crossing in the history, plus a strong
01:30ice.
01:31He has been the most effective president for the border and interior enforcement.
01:35Back to Iran, Elizabeth Pipco, for you, because I asked the president directly, it's like
01:40Groundhog Day.
01:41The Iranians said they want to cut a deal, and then the deal's off, and then they want
01:45to come back.
01:45And I think you can tell by his body language when he says it, he's done.
01:50He's had enough of this.
01:52It's going to happen or it's not going to happen.
01:56I completely agree, Trace.
01:57And I think when it comes to President Trump, when it comes to what's been going on here,
02:01he should be applauded, right?
02:02Instead of criticized for being able to restrain himself, he should be applauded for wanting
02:06to exhaust every single diplomatic possible option that he has in front of him before
02:11he has to unleash what he knows will be a very destructive attack.
02:14He knows how capable our incredible military is in the U.S., and he knows he doesn't want
02:19to do this.
02:19He also knows he's the only one that has the courage to do this.
02:22I can tell you, Trace, we're getting close right now to the 25th anniversary of 9-11,
02:26a day that I remember living through as a first grader in New York City.
02:30And since that day, I think growing up, I waited for a leader to enter into the White
02:33House that I believed would have the courage to stand up against absolute evil.
02:37And unlike those before him, Donald Trump actually has that courage.
