 contraception has become more important than ever following the Supreme Court's decision and ensuing crisis for women's health. And today's action helps ensure that women can make decisions about their own health, lives, and also their families. Now, as you all know, when a section of I-95 collapsed just 12 days ago, President Biden made clear that his administration would move heaven and earth to get I-95 reopened as soon as possible. Six days ago, as you all covered and may have been there yourselves, he visited Philadelphia where he viewed the site of the collapse and met with union leaders and local officials working day and night to rebuild the bridge. Not today, the President called into Governor Shapiro's, he called into Governor Shapiro just ahead of the press conference that he had that the Governor held announcing to people in Philadelphia that the I-95 is now reopened. This phase of the emergency repair is 100 percent federally funded, and all approvals were given as quick as possible. We also deployed officials from U.S. Department of Transportation to the crash site within hours to help fast track the effort. We are proving that when we work together, there is nothing that we cannot do. This is an important step forward, and the President and his entire administration are making clear to the people of Pennsylvania that we will be here to provide whatever it takes to keep the permanent repairs on track. Now, we'll have more to share on this, but later today and on the full week ahead. But on Wednesday, the President will travel to Chicago to deliver a major address on Bidenomics, his vision for growing the economy from the middle out and bottom up, not from the top down. The President will highlight how, for too long, failed trick-or-down economic policies have continued to be pushed by congressional Republicans, have hollowed out the middle class and sent jobs overseas. President Biden's economic plan is a break. It is a break from those failed policies. It is focused on growing the middle class and empowering workers, investing in America and lowering costs. That plan is delivering results with more than 13 million jobs created, the strongest economic growth among any of the world's leading economies since the pandemic began, and the lowest current inflation among the world's leading economies. So we'll have more to share on his speech in the days ahead, and we'll have a week ahead later today for all of you as well. And finally, I do want to speak to something that we all watch very closely the last couple of days before I get started. I wanted to say a few words about the submersible. Our hearts go out to the families and the loved ones of those who lost their lives on the Titan. They have been through a tragic ordeal over the past few days, and we are keeping them in our thoughts and prayers. We would also like to thank the United States Coast Guards, our Canadian, British and French partners, and everyone who participated in the search and rescue efforts these past couple of days. This whole effort has been a testament, a testament to the skill, and also the professionalism that the men and women who serve our nation continue. They continue to demonstrate, continue to show each and every day. With that, I, as you all know, the admiral is here to join me at the podium to speak to any questions that you may have after the Prime Minister's visit yesterday and any other foreign policy matters. Yeah, that's what they want to ask. Admiral, the podium is yours. Yeah, here you go. Great, this guy. I think, as you know, Prime Minister Modi just concluded a very successful... Nobody's talking about this. She's like, yoink! ...dropped by a meeting between senior officials and CEOs of American and Indian companies gathered to discuss innovation, investment, and manufacturing in a variety of technology sectors, including artificial intelligence, semi-conductors, and space. And I think you received a list of all the attendees earlier today. Now, over the course of this visit, President and Prime Minister Modi reaffirmed that the partnership between the United States and India is deeper and more expansive than it's ever been. When we think about the future, not only of this relationship, but of the critical and emerging technology, countering climate change, global health, energy security, food security, there's just simply no partner that's going to be more consequential to help you solve those problems in India, and that's exactly what President Biden made clear during this visit. And as you all saw yesterday, and hopefully you saw... I was working on a video on all of those fronts. Very, very specific, very tangible deliverables that we're looking forward to carrying future with India. And then, as both leaders reaffirmed, our countries are choosing to work together to... Does anybody care about this? Seriously? What is this? Immediately, we should be talking about the huge allegations that have now been made by IRS and by IRS whistleblowers. You mentioned, we saw yesterday the President of the Prime Minister held a one-in-one interview instead of the usual two-in-two. Can you speak a little to the conversations and negotiations that went on in advance of that? It's an unusual opinion of the Prime Minister to have a press conference, but not to be at the U.S. standard of two. Why did the President, why did the White House not push for it to be two-prisoned on Twitter? Yeah, I'm not going to get into the pairing for this. We're not going to talk baseball today, guys. We thought it was important for President Biden, certainly for both leaders, to be able to talk to you guys, read out their discussions, and take some questions. And we're glad that Prime Minister Modi and his team felt the same way. And then, essentially, Jake's travels that began to play in his meetings with the BRICS, Minus Russia, and China officials from Brazil, India, and South Africa. Give me a preview of what to expect now. I don't have travel to really read out or talk to today. I would just tell you that Jake, especially, but all of us here on the national security team work closely with the Ukrainians almost every day, whether it's talking to them about security assistance, or whether it's talking to them about this idea of a just peace and the principles behind that and how you get that. And those conversations are ongoing and will continue, will continue to conduct them, not only with partners alike. John, China is complaining that the President's description of G as a dictator is a provocation. Could you walk us through the President's thinking on this comment? What are these questions? Steve, we... I hate our media. We're not back for a lot speaking plainly about some of the concerns and issues that we have with the PRC and with the challenges that they propose, and the President is very forthright in the way he addresses those challenges and the complicated nature of this relationship. But it is an important relationship, and you heard the President talk about that yesterday as well. It's one of the most consequential bilateral relationships in the world today and likely will be going forward. And that's why it was important to see Secretary Blinken make that trip to Beijing. That's why we're in discussions with the PRC about potential follow-on visits by Secretary Blinken. And I think that's why we want to keep the lines of communication open. And as the President said, he has every expectation that we'll be able to do that. Do you see India as a counterweight to China? This state visit wasn't about China. Look, India has challenges with China as well. Right on their doorstep, but also more broadly in the region. And clearly, the challenges presented both our nations were on the agenda yesterday. No question about that. But this wasn't about leveraging India to be some sort of counterweight. India is a sovereign independent state. They have their own foreign policy that they have to manage, and they live in a tough neighborhood. They are becoming an increasing exporter of security, which we welcome. And you can see a lot of that, our desire to improve the defense cooperation on hand yesterday and some of the deliverables, whether it's a purchase of MQ-9 drones. There's a lot we can do in the security front together, and that's really what we're focused on. Thank you. So, John, just to follow up, you're saying that the U.S. does not view India as having any role in its overall competition against China? I didn't say that. I said that we're not... All right. I'm going to turn this down just a little bit. Some people are asking this already. Basically, there's several IRS, high-ranking IRS officials, officers who are now whistleblowers coming out saying that Hunter was given preferential treatment. The DOJ literally tipped him off and tipped his lawyers off about searches that were coming to his house for documents. They wanted to charge Hunter with way more serious crimes, they were blocked by the DOJ. And there's proof of this. There's proof that Hunter was talking to the CCP about a bribe about that he and his father were expecting from the CCP. They have the text message. Hopefully, they get to that during this... I feel like they're just going to try and avoid it during this press conference, but we'll see. Why is the President saying so confidently that his remark had no real consequences? Because he believes it. And we're still in communication with the PRC about moving this relationship forward. He is a dictator. Why is the media coming to bat for a G? I mean, that tells you who's buttering their bread. Thank you. Do you understand that the violence in those banks might get out of hand and the Israeli settlers' violence against Palestinians including American Palestinians, as you know, in many villages in those banks is being dragged down to the ground. Your own ambassador said that we cannot stand by and watch. So what does it mean? It's a pretty big bombshell. This is what we're talking about. Nobody cares about this. Reports now of U.S. citizens at risk and potential victims here. I mean, it's not nobody cares, but this is small of some of the... This isn't the news that should be leading, but obviously they're trying to bury it. Several U.S. government officials in the U.S. bank and met with the victims of this violence in a place called the Terma Saya. I hope I'm pronouncing that right. And consular officials have been providing assistance to U.S. citizens as requested. So we'll continue to stand ready to do that. Look, I'll say it again for the... I don't know how many times... We'll just repeat BS. We'll extend our condolences to the families of those that were affected. We issue a speedy recovery for those and the violence isn't helping reduce the tensions at all. And we... When you have a situation like this, leadership is really required. Leadership on both sides to stop the violence and to be demonstrable in doing so so that the tensions can be turned down. That's what we want to see. Thank you. The Israeli National Security Minister spoke today at a settler outpost and he urged Israeli settlers to expand their activities to be included in all of the West Bank mountains. Despite of the violence that you just talked about and international calls to hold settlements and settlement buildings we're still hearing this from high officials from the Israeli cabinet. Why do we still hear this? Just heads up. When this press conference is over, we plan on going through as long as my kids hate napping I will go through some of the hearing points that some of you may have missed. What this bombshell is, we'll go over all that. We'll not change. And we have been very consistent in communicating that directly to government officials in Israel. I can't speak to their comments or why they're saying what they're saying. That's a better question for them. I can just tell you that our policy is very consistent. So two questions about the trip to Copenhagen tomorrow. Some countries that will be there like Brazil for example are saying that both sides we will have to concede to have a peace plan to work. So what does the National Spirit Advisor I don't care about any of this. I want to hear what they have to say. I mean we know that they're going to avoid questions, right? South Africa and Turkey and does the White House believe the same? I don't have any trips or travel to speak to here. I'm just here to waste time. I just tell you that we routinely have engagements of all different varieties with the Ukrainians and with our allies and partners about trying to seek a just peace and to discuss the peace principles around that. We'll continue to do that. Just one more question very quickly. I have more time to waste. The United States and Russia have requested from Brazil a team as a potential candidate for a prisoner swap deal to free the Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gorkovich. Is this being considered? I'm afraid I don't have any context for you on that at all but just broadly speaking what happened that you saw yesterday Evan's appeal was denied. Susan Roth Rath, what up Drone Fam what up boss? Hey man, what's up? Thanks for coming. Paul Whalen, home to the families where they belong. On Taiwan and India, what does the U.S. expect India's involvement would be at this point if China were to invade Taiwan? That's up to the Indian government, Prime Minister Modi. If you're just joining us I'm going to have as soon as this press conference goes through I'm going to chat some more. As I said earlier, clearly our mutual challenges with the PRC and the Indo-Pacific was a matter of discussion. There's so much to talk about. Indians have been very vocal about their concerns too with respect to what the PRC is doing but I don't have anything more specific to reality in terms of the conversations specifically regarding Taiwan. All I can tell you on Taiwan is our policy has not changed. And then on the adventure tourism vessel that was headed to the Titanic, if the Navy had audio suggesting that it had it imploded was that communicated with all the partners that you had that audio? The Navy did pass on to the incident commander the acoustic data that they had received but they were also quick to make clear that they couldn't be definitive about what that data meant and they couldn't be clear that that data was connected to the Titan to the submersible but they did pass that information up to the incident commander as you would expect they would and I'm sure that that was factored into the search plan. We detected an implosion. What else could it be? Resources were wasted in searching the area the size of Connecticut? No. I think the Coast Guard has spoken definitively about this quite well. Every day here or at least every day until we got the tragic news that there was an implosion. I'm not trying to locate the Titan. Look when you're in a search and rescue operation particularly at sea particularly in deep sea time is not your friend and I think you can see from the way in which this was put together in a pretty quick fashion with a lot of resources. They detected the implosion. They knew that's what it was. They knew the location they knew that was it. Time was not going to be anybody's time. We just didn't know for sure. When the president said yesterday he expects to meet with president she in the future near term. Let me just make a point on that. They could have let everybody know that we detected an implosion and still go along with the search because you know you just want to cover your base so you do the search. I can understand that. But the fact that they didn't say yesterday they say nothing about detecting that until really? I'm not buying it. He had the opportunity to discuss concerns over human rights with prime minister Modi and he did as he always does. We don't shy away from discussing human rights with foreign leaders and one of the reasons you have partnerships and friendships is so that you can be honest and direct. I think he addressed that pretty well in his answer to you guys. John, the president said in his comment yesterday that he doesn't believe his China comments have had any consequence. Isn't China issuing a demarche to the U.S. Ambassador? If demarches issued by nations against other nations were some sort of bell weather for whether a relationship was collapsing or in any danger, I mean my goodness Jeremy, a demarche is a demarch that happened all the time. They should have at least let people know that it was detected. But they didn't. That's odd. They think we're all stupid. I get there's a lot of dumb people out there. We need to move it forward and he's absolutely confident that we'll be able to. Other than the demarch, have you seen any other consequences? No. And then secondly, in his comments at that fundraiser he also revealed the U.S. intelligence assessment that she was not aware of the spy balloon flying over the U.S. in February. What was the strategic value of disclosing that intelligence at a fundraiser? That wasn't a disclosure. That's been in the public domain. Not on the record from any investigation. It was. I say it was. I've talked about it before. On the record. I checked this. Thank you. Honestly, I'm a little confused why you're not confirming Jake Sullivan's trip to Copenhagen, especially because it's been reported by other countries' media who was attending. But let me try to explain. Can you specify the kind of request that was made by the president to Prime Minister Modi in terms of supporting or getting the support of global... I think the people on that sub are currently talking to Mars. Did the president and the Prime Minister discuss whether President Putin will be welcome at the G20 in New Delhi? I don't have anything additional to speak to with respect to the G20 and how that's shaping up. That's really far in the counterparts to speak to. And I'm not going to get into any greater detail on the discussions than what the two leaders talked to you guys about from the podium. Two hours for the lawyers. If and when we have some travel to talk to, then by goodness we'll talk about it. One more question on the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant. There's a little bit of confusion. I think President Zelensky is saying or was said yesterday that Russia is plotting a terror attack on the nuclear power plant. President Putin today is urging the International Atomic Energy Agency to ensure that Ukraine does not attack the power plant. What is the administration's understanding on this? What's your assessment? And are there anything that you're doing in particular to that? We'll continue to monitor it closely. Don't you just have so much confidence? We are able to monitor some radiation sensors that are around the plant and thus far we've detected the related levels of radioactivity. Kirby, man. He's a slippery one. Do you have any sense of who's going to attack if anyone is? I've seen those comments. I just don't have anything to confirm them or speak to the validity of it. That's the first joke about that. They only know the thing I'd say, and we've said this before too. I kind of feel bad about it. I think we should all be able to agree that a nuclear power plant is not a great site for military operations one way or the other. Just on the issue of Russian oil, does the President come out of this meeting with Modi with the belief that India may actually produce its purchases of Russian oil? And to what extent did that come up? There's a lot of discussion about oil purchases. We hope that we can continue to see that they purchase Russian oil at or below the price cap as they have been. I just thought of NATO that the President is going to be leaving in a couple of weeks. Where do things stand in terms of his effort to help Sweden become a member of NATO? Do you expect a call with Erdogan in the coming weeks? There's conversations ongoing between the Swedish government and Erdogan. We have been encouraging those conversations to continue. Just so it's clear, I'm joking about my sub-conspiracies that the two nations we are able to come to an accord and we'll be able to welcome Sweden as the 32nd ally in NATO. I couldn't begin right now to give you a time frame of what that's going to look like when and under what circumstances. But the fact that they're still talking is a good thing. Thank you. Thanks Kelly. John, in light of what's happening in the West Bank, many scholars believe that... Since it's a West Bank question Nick says the Navy wouldn't make an announcement about a suspected implosion because it would stop rescue efforts. I don't think that's the case. They would still search even with knowing that there was an implosion. And in fact, knowing where they detected that implosion maybe have even helped with the search to at least locate specifically where it happened. It's just odd to me they wouldn't even mention it. Why would they not mention it? I'm not buying the Nick Beerman your explanation. I don't think the search efforts would stop. We're not engaging. We absolutely are. Can you please confirm that the State Department informed the government agency that scientific and technical cooperation with Israel beyond the green line is not consistent with the law? I'm sorry, can you repeat that? The State Department informed all the government agencies that scientific and technical cooperation with Israel beyond the green line is not consistent with the law. Can you confirm that? No, I can. I don't have any for you on that. Thank you. Thank you. I have two questions from China and North Korea. Those microphones that the Navy heard that implosion with are very sensitive. They've been using these things for over 50 years or something now. They're very good with them and they can locate where the source of sounds that they record come from. Yeah, issues. How will you respond to this and second question on North Korea? North Korea continues to develop the nuclear side and these are just waiting for his chance with KJP. What action is the United States to continue and what was specifically discussed at the U.S. South Korea cyber security talks this week? Well, I make it a habit not to talk about cyber security talks very much for good reason. But on your first question we know that Beijing has influence in Pyongyang and we continue to urge them to use that influence. We continue to urge them to actually implement the U.N. sanctions that have been long been in place on North Korea's program and we continue to urge China to take a broader, longer view here of the challenges that are presented on North Korea's burgeoning program, both their ballistic missile program and their nuclear ambitions. Do you think the President will be going to apologize? The President was very clear yesterday that he'll continue to speak forthrightly and bluntly about the challenges that we face with the PRC. He will also continue to speak bluntly and forthrightly about the opportunities that are still resident in that relationship with trying to move that relationship forward. The State Department says they organized a meeting earlier this month in Cairo with other nuclear powers. Yeah, that's one thing you can say about the sub people is that they probably didn't know what hit them. They might have had an instant where they knew something was about to happen but it would have been lights out instantly. Continuing dialogue, we just happen to be the chair of these nuclear nations, nuclear arm nations and it's done at a working level. This one was in Cairo earlier this month. We chaired it. It was a good opportunity. The State Department put a statement on it. I'd certainly encourage you to talk to them but it was a good opportunity for dialogue about nuclear safety protocols and procedures. It's done at a working level. But it's not like a precursor to any broader talks. Is it lights to life? New treaties or anything like that? No, it's a routine process. We happen to be the chair and we convene the meeting as the chair of this working group and it is at a working group level. Thanks. Back to India. This push for American companies to do more business. This push for American companies to do more business in India. Is that a way to move away from China? A way to move for who to move away from China? From the U.S. Is pushing U.S. companies to do business in India a way to move those companies away from China? It's a way to encourage mutual investment in China. Thank you. Thanks. President Zelensky said this week that the pace of the counteroffensive is moving slower than desired. Is the administration concerned right now about the pace and what you guys are seeing and hearing and talking with Ukrainian officials? We're focused on making sure that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have everything that they need to be successful. War is unpredictable and the enemy gets a vote. The Russian government is not ready to speak to Ukrainian offensive operations. They should be the ones to do that. But I don't think that they went into this with some sort of false sense of confidence about how tough it was going to be. It's not as if the Russians and we talked about this many times from here that the Russians were preparing for this. We've talked about this many times. Putting in additional forces. It's not as if the Russians weren't preparing for defense and defense is a strong form of war and the Ukrainians are fighting through this. I think we just all have to recognize that combat can be unpredictable and sometimes your plans don't always go exactly the way that you expected them to but that's what's expected when you're in combat. What we're going to focus on again will be ultimately successful. James and then behind you has a last word. I think Koreans coming back after this. The House Ways and Means Committee yesterday released documents their authenticity nowhere challenged. That included a July 2017 WhatsApp message sent by Hunter Biden to Henry Zhao a Chinese Communist Party official which stated in its entirety and I quote I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand and Z if I get a caller text from anyone involved other than you, Zhang or the chairman I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret sitting here waiting for the call with my father unquote. So just a couple of questions about this. First, does this not undermine the president's claim during the 2020 campaign and the reaffirmations of that claim by his two press secretaries since then that he never once discussed his son's overseas business dealings with him? No, and I'm not going to comment. No! James, James, let me just let me save you. Let me save you some breath if you're going to ask about this I am not addressing there we go. We all do this is what they would do. I am not going to address this issue from this podium. I'm not going to do it. My boss is getting brides from the CCP I'm not going to talk about that. He's like, Yoink! You see that? Yoink! You're in for it KJP. Hopefully. If we have a real free press she will be. Does the president contain will you say that Xi Jinping is a big tenor? Is that the official position? The president spoke for himself. I'm just not going to go beyond what he said. I'm not here to answer questions. It's weird hearing your voice. What is going on? I can't hear anything. The sound got cut off. Is it good? We're good to go? What is happening? I object. We're all friends. We're laughing together. We're not talking about the huge bombshell at all. It's just silence. What's happening? Hello? I'll try my best. Here. This sounds so weird guys. So look the president is going to continue to speak candidly. That will never change. They're going to cancel this press conference. As he's done the last two years. This is weird. Clearly. Disagreements. That is something that the president if you think about the president believing in diplomacy. Fixed it. That's what the president is going to do. As you know. He's very candid. He speaks honestly. He speaks honestly. He's one of the most prolific liars in Washington. What is going on? This is not me guys. This is on their end. No sound. It's on them. They've literally cut the sound right now. We can at least read the caption. MAGA. Despite the office special counsel's opinion that your office is continuing to put out paper. Using that phrase. You have in the past brushed off all questions about any flip concerning saying this administration follows the law. So why in this case would you go with your own interpretation of the law rather than be independent of the law? I wouldn't say it's our own interpretation of the law. I would strongly disagree with that statement. What I'll say more broadly and there's a couple of points that I want to make here. So look the White House counsel's office is reviewing as I mentioned last week. OSC's opinion and having a routine dialogue with them. That's what we're doing. That's what we said last week and that's what's going to continue. It is an ongoing process administration. It's our duty to be transparent with the American people. That's what you see from us. And it's not on the agenda, right, on the president's policies, on the president's values and about the agenda. That's what we want to be transparent about. And look, just a couple of facts here. OSC has said that they view terms like Tea Party as acceptable. And this is a similar phrase, right? When you think about the term, you think about MAGA. In fact, OSC itself stated that MAGA could be used for official purposes during the Trump administration and permitted Mc Mulvaney to repeatedly use the term in his official capacity. So Congressional Republicans has also used the term, as I mentioned here last week. She's trying to make an argument of why it's different from why she campaigned from her position. The same phrase to discuss their own agendas, their own proposals, their own policies. And so we have used the term in her capacity as we are when you think about the contacts off the paper. That's all she does. That's how we've used it. She's just up there to read it. She doesn't even do that very well. As a Republican official say. And so we never directed it towards a campaign. We've never done that. Because again, we respect the rule of law and have not done that. And so that will continue to be the case. And again, this is being reviewed. There's a conversation that's going to happen but I'll let that process continue. Thanks, Cree. Former Vice President Mike Pence is calling on every GOP presidential candidate to endorse a 15-week abortion ban. In what ways does this administration expect that abortion access and reproductive rights would be targeted if Republicans take full place? I just want to be really mindful, as I was just asked about the Hatch Act. I'm not going to comment on any specific Republican candidate here or anything that's related to 2024. What I can speak to easily is more broadly, and we've seen it. You've heard me at the top talk about how this President and the Vice President is going to continue to fight for fundamental rights as we see it when it comes to reproductive rights, when it comes to having access and women being able to make a decision on their own body to have that conversation with doctors. That's something that the President and the Vice President are going to continue to fight on as it relates to just more broadly. They're always so dishonest about everything around that. That is, look, we have seen from Americans, majority of Americans who do not want, they do not want politicians making their health care decisions for them. That's been clear. We've seen that in majority of Republicans. So we have to define health care as murder or health care? Is mutilating children health care? Of every ideology, right, if you think about that. And so what we're going to continue to do when we are committed to those Americans and majority of Americans, all Americans across the country, is that we're going to continue to fight for health care, to restore the protections of Roe. And we believe that needs to happen in the national legislation. What's a protection? Notice they just started saying that a couple years ago. Congress and state legislatures will target contraception next. Look, I mean, it is a concern, right? In this state house, just this session alone, right, in 2023, we have seen more than 300 bills attacking reproductive care. See, it's just, most of these press reporters, they're just left-wingers activists who get on here and they use their positions to, they don't, they're not scrutinizing or criticizing the administration, they're just laying up softballs for her to knock out for, you know, political benefit to Biden and the Democrats. And so the president's going to take action. You're going to hear from both the president and the vice president later today. The vice president's going to be in North Carolina tomorrow. You saw the first lady having really impactful, powerful conversations with women and what they've had to deal with. We have seen stories that many of you have written about when you take away that access, that type of healthcare access for women. It's hurt women. It's put their lives at risk. Literally, put their lives at risk. This is what we have seen this past year with these really extreme pieces of legislation. So the president and the vice president are going to continue to be very, very clear about this. They're going to continue to fight for those fundamental rights and continue to call for Congress to restore work. Just quickly on the executive action, largely symbolic. I mean, are you at the end of the line here when it comes to what you can do without steps from Congress? So let me just make clear. I want to speak about that a little bit. It builds on the progress that we believe that we have made already in expanding contraception access for women. If you think about the Affordable Care Act, it helped millions of women save billions of dollars on birth control that they need to understand that there are gaps still as it relates to that. And so that's what this executive order does today. It does a couple of things. It safeguards access. It's, pardon me, it's strengthening access to affordable, high quality contraception and family planning services. It increased contraception options. It lowers out-of-pocket costs. It maximizes contraception through access through the following ways. Insurance coverage for those covered under the Affordable Care Act, as I just mentioned. We have a number of federal-funded healthcare programs including community health centers and also Title X clinics and the Indian Health Service, public education targeted at employees, college students, veterans, and service members. So we don't believe this is symbolic. We believe that this is another step to really deal with this gap that we're seeing across the country and to do everything that we can, everything that we can to continue to fight for fundamental justice. I think it's important to make sure that we don't have to do anything that can happen with this submersible. Look, I can't speak to that from here. I will leave it to ... Like, none of them are interested. How can you be a reporter and not be interested in this huge, for Pirates whistleblowers? Like, what's going on? I just want to calm my own down. I think it's important. You talk about the latest thing that has drawn up in the top news. We've heard a say that we're going to kick off the second tour. So the president wanted to lay out what he's going to do, the detail of his economic vision in this country. He wants to speak directly to the American people to do so. Everybody out there. When Trump was president and something like this came out between him and his other son, Trump Jr. Would that not be the question that every single one of these people would be asking? But instead, it's like you're going to have one or two that ask about it. It is going to be a cornerstone of his speech. I think it's important. He thinks it's important for the American people to hear directly from him as he talks about his economic vision, as he talks about how he sees the next several months and the next several years when it relates to how he wants to continue to grow the economy without making sure no one is left behind. And that's what you're going to hear from him. Of course he's going to lift up the successes that we have seen in the last few years. I'm going to talk about completely pointless things here and then I'm just going to leave here a minute. 13 million jobs created, unemployment at record low, making sure that we're bringing back manufacturing jobs. It went down by more than 50%. Yeah, you don't want to say it's when, do you? Right, because it's just gone down from main super high. So it's actually still really high. So it's actually still really high. She stopped herself there. Yeah, you don't want to say. Thanks, Karine. To follow up on that question. Oh, another useless question. With the President's speech on the economy next week, it seems like he's entering a mode where he's more willing to embrace an economy to tout the economic progress that he believes has been made. Is that a reflection of the fact that you guys feel like inflation has cooled significantly to a point where you think this is a trend that is... This is like in The Simpsons where Lisa Simpson's interviewing Burns and she has to be a hack and ask him a question. She's like, your campaigns become a speeding locomotive. Why are you so great? Or why do people love you so much? And that's basically what this guy is. But as we know that lowering costs is a key priority for them. That's what they want to see. And so, of course, the President's always going to try to meet Americans where they are. Here is talk about gas prices going down. Here is talk about inflation reduction at the historic piece of legislation. As you all know, that's going to lower energy costs, lower healthcare. There are things here that he has done in the last two years that we have talked about over and over and over again. This gives him an opportunity to do it in a way that he talks about it in a fulsome, if you will, a way and approach where he'll be in Illinois. He'll talk about Biden economics more broadly. He'll talk about the next kind of how he sees the future and dealing with the economy. I think that's all incredibly important. The future should be impeachment in prison. He's getting bribed from the CCP and we have proof of it. I think as you talk about the economy and where it's going to go, we've been very clear. We believe that we're headed to a slow and steady growth. We believe that the work that the President has done was an environmental, I'm sorry, economic policy as he continues to move forward with it. As he continues to implement those really key important pieces of legislation is going to continue to grow important jobs, jobs that are union jobs, jobs that are going to be important. But like I said, we understand that a lot of Americans don't know what the President has done. They don't know how great it is. They're just living it. But they don't know how great it is. Are you serious? I think it's a combination of things. We've shared the good news that we've heard from the data over the past several months. What is this? This is an intellectual discussion with the first gay black press secretary. And so they go out there and they, oh yes, the economic data. Let's talk about the news, the huge news that we just heard. In a way so that he can give this cornerstone speech, right? This really important speech to the American people. So we're trying to have a steady drumbeat, right? A steady drumbeat. There's a steady drumbeat, all right. Not just the data, not just a piece of legislation, but giving the opportunity for the President to talk about his economic plan more broadly. And that's what you're going to see. And again, a steady drumbeat, something that's been very consistent. Propaganda. That's what she's talking about. Steady drumbeat of propaganda. And the legislations, clearly the historic pieces of legislation that we bring up is all connected to building an economy that grows for everyone. Certainly not trickled down, but something that grows from the bottom up. That's impossible. A lot of them don't have the money to invest in and to make a decision making of why the President decided to invite him. I'm just not going to get into family discussion, personal family discussion. As you know, Hunter is his son. I'm just not going to get into it. Hunter Biden wasn't the President's son. Would he have invited someone who had just reached a plea agreement with federal prosecutors today? Well, a couple of things. Again, that's his son. He's a family member. It is not uncommon for family members to look at past presidents. I'm sure you have. So that is not uncommon. As it relates to anything related to Hunter, I'm just not going to respond to it from here. Right. See? She's not going to answer any of that. She's just telling you that. I'm here to not answer your questions. I'm going to answer the question. Not a reasonable question to ask, but the President of the United States was involved as this message seems to suggest in some sort of a coercive conversation for business dealing by a son. Is that something, if he wasn't, then maybe you should tell us. So here's the thing. And I appreciate the question. I believe my colleague at the White House Council has answered this question already, has dealt with this, has made it very clear. I just don't have anything to share outside of what my colleagues have shared. You just said you're not going to answer. So I would refer you to him and the DOJ. Just not going to comment from here. What I can tell you is I know that my colleague has dealt with this. He addressed this. No, he didn't. I just don't have anything else to share. I just answered the question. No, you did not answer the question. Yes or no was the President involved in the breakdown? No, you didn't. Steven, I just answered the question. I just said, I just, it's not up to you how I answer the question. I just answered the question by telling you my colleagues at the White House Council. I just answered the question by telling you I'm not going to answer it. My colleague said from the White House Council, so we have it. I would refer you to that. Because he said nothing. She can't tell you. Your statements from that podium you stated that the President stands by his comments in the 2020 campaign that he never once discussed his son's overseas business dealings with his son. And you stood at that podium and you reaffirmed that. Do you stand by your re-information? What I will say is nothing has changed. Nothing has changed. And I will leave it there. If you have any questions, I will refer you to the White House Council. She's going to run away now. You just asked me, does my statement change? I just told you nothing has changed. That's answering the question. Go ahead. Go ahead. Steven, I'm calling on your colleague right now. Go ahead. To follow up on my colleague, is there anything that you can say with regard to this text message? It's amazing they went this long to get to something so important. Was the President there or not? I would refer you to my colleagues at the White House Council. They have addressed this and I would refer you to them. They have not addressed it. Have you spoken to the President about this? Have you asked him whether he was there with his son? This is not a conversation that I've had with the President. Again, I would refer you to the White House Council. No. No. I cannot say if the President had a conversation with the Attorney General last night. What I can refer you to is the White House Council's office. As it relates to the allegations, they have already addressed this. The only reason I'm up here is the Q propaganda and not answer questions that actually mean something. There was reporting earlier in the week that after the plea agreement was reached by Hunter Biden that the President felt relieved that that part of it was behind him. Is that true? I cannot speak to that. I cannot speak to the President's mindset. Again, I would refer you to the White House Council's office. Back to India because that's what matters. Who is this? Who is this? Back to India. You got to go back to talking about India. That's way more important. You got to go back to talking about India. There are speakers who are certainly leading in innovation and technology. The United States and India have a strong and shared interest in protecting. The President's getting, and as Sun, are now busted getting bribed from the freaking CCP and China involved in some sort of a scheme. But let's talk about India. Investments in the United States and diversifying our supply chains were all topics of discussion on this historic official visit. They are both leaders in innovation and technology, so certainly they have shared interest. The Press. On inflation quickly, does the President still think companies are causing inflation? So, look, as you know, the President, when it comes, I just went to lay it down for Jeremy about how important it is for this President to deal with inflation. We've seen inflation go down by more than 50 percent in the last 12 months, and we think that's incredibly important. And so the way that we're going to continue to do the work of making sure that we lower whether it's going to roll a ear-on-cross for Americans at the bottom. That's all that's happened. And so, but to your question and other things, right, whether it's- She said earlier that the American people just don't know how good it is. It's like, that's because they're actually living it and feeling it, and they're, she's rich and she lives a completely different life than most Americans. And so, like, her bullshit, like, she doesn't actually have to live her BS. So the President said this in his Wall Street op-ed, and I'll quote him, as supply chains continue to unsnarl company profits margins fall from historical, historically high levels and rents continue to moderate. Inflation should decline further, creating more breathing room from working families. So did the President confront the CEOs here today about that? I'm not going to get into- Half the people in this room are owned by the CCP that the President has had, but I just laid out how we see the future as it relates to profit margins, and I'll just leave it there. I'll take one more question. One, and then I'm getting the hell out of here. Thank you very much. I wanted to ask you if there is video of the President signing this executive order today, because we were wondering- I believe there was digital contact from the President signing this order, and so he'll probably use it. So that guy saved her from the actual questions, and then it ends on that. You're kidding me. Have I testified to Congress that David- One guy. Oh, wow. All right. Well, pretty much exactly. You know, I made the headline of this, the title of this stream before it started. So, I mean, it was pretty obvious she was gonna do this. But some people are asking me about what this bombshell actually is. It seems a lot of people don't know about it, and I'm not surprised because that's how this works. The media just, you know, they're not gonna talk about it. They're gonna cover it up. They'll cover it just enough. Just enough. But just so you know what's going on here, let me break it down for you. And we'll just go through a quick thread here that I have saved. And a lot of this comes from the Durham Report as well. Just seeing that the DOJ and the FBI were purposely working to shield Biden and Joe, the Bidens, from these investigations. They knew the Hunter laptop was legitimate in 2018 and said nothing, you know, through the 2020 election, they said it's Russian disinformation. They told us that. They influenced the outcome of the election. They interfered in it by doing that, but they knew in 2018 that it was real. We know that now. Here is the text message that we got from several IRS whistleblowers, high ranking. These people are pinnacles. They're leaders. They're trainers. These people are the cream of the crop at the IRS and they're coming out as whistleblowers. One of the things they brought out was this text. It says, and this is a Hunter Biden text message. I'm, and he's conversing with somebody in China. I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand. So he starts threatening now. And it sounds very like mafia-like. Like this is the kind of talk you would expect, like on the Sopranos. I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand. And now means tonight. And Z, like what? If I get a call or a text from anyone involved in this, other than you, Zeng, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father. Like it doesn't get any more damning than that, especially when Biden said that, you remember when Ducey from Fox asked him specifically about talking to his son about these dealings, Biden said that he had not. He did not talk to, he had not talked to his son about any of his dealings. And of course that video is making its rounds again everywhere. Here we go. Overseas business. Mr. Vice President, how many times have you ever spoken to your son about his overseas business? This was in 2020. I've never spoken to my son about overseas business. And so how do you know? Here's what I know. I know Trump deserves to be investigated. He is violating every basic norm of a president. You should be asking him the questions. Why is he on the phone with a foreign leader? I'm pointing. Look at that. Trying to intimidate a foreign leader if that's what happened. That appears what happened. You should be looking at Trump. Trump's doing this because he knows how to beat him like a drum. And he's using the abuse of, Trump's doing this because he knows how to beat him like a drum. And he's using the abuse of power and every element of the presidency to try to do something to smear me. Everybody looked at this and everybody's looked at it and said there's nothing there. Ask the right question. Mr. Biden, that was spoken to your son. And he said, so that's a lie. We already knew that was a lie because in the Hunter Biden laptop, there are emails talking about 10% to the big guy. And the family's almost set up like a mafia thing where he gets his cut, everybody gets their cut. And so, let me get this here. We gotta find the actual thread here. How long is this here? I'll just play this here. This basically lays it out. Intervening and overstepping. Whistleblowers claim the Biden Department of Justice is intervening and overstepping when it comes to the investigation of the president's son. Despite what whistleblowers described as a clear cut case for tax liability on these payments, IRS investigators say they found themselves hamstrung internally. The testimony we have just released details a lack of U.S. Attorney independence, recurring unjustified delays, unusual actions outside the normal course of any investigation, a lack of transparency across the investigation and prosecution teams, and bullying and threats from the Defense Council. This was a campaign of delay, divulge, and deny. Whistleblowers say recurring unjustified delays pervaded the investigation, including in authenticating a what's at message in which Hunter Biden demands payment from Chinese officials noting that his father is in the room. The whistleblowers- This should be huge, everybody, this is huge. IRS investigators were told by U.S. Attorney Leslie Wolf that because the evidence would be found in the guest house of former Vice President Biden, quote, there is no way, close quotes, a search warrant for evidence would ever get approved. IRS whistleblowers told this committee that crucial information about the investigation was- Yeah, they'll lie. FBI agents will lie to get a search warrants against Trump's campaign so they can spy on it. Something that has not happened. They did it to Trump. Devolved to Hunter Biden's attorneys. For example, even an investigator, investigators had probable cause to search a Northern Virginia storage unit in which Hunter Biden had stored files. Attorneys for Biden were made aware- They were kicked off. Prior to any search, providing them valuable time to remove any materials that could be useful evidence. Few Americans qualify for such soft-globed treatment from federal investigators. Testimony shows that U.S. Attorney of Delaware David Weiss tried to bring charges in the District of Columbia around March of 2022 and was denied. Weiss sought special counsel status from the DOJ in the spring of 2022 and was once again denied. Weiss sought to bring charges in the Central District of California in the fall of 2022 and had that request denied in January of 2023. Yeah, and these whistleblowers have also been retaliated against. They were kicked off their investigations. They were basically kicked out of everything and their jobs ruined. And these are people that were, again, they were creeping the crop up until they started pushing back against what they saw as corrupt behavior by the DOJ and by the IRS. And what did we hear all through the Trump administration when there was whistleblowers? That these whistleblowers are hallowed heroes of democracy. But somehow, when the whistleblowers came out against Democrats, suddenly now they're bad. So we basically have a situation here where Hunter Biden got off easy. We find out, oh yeah, and I gotta show you that as well, that we know now that the FBI had, they knew that it was real, the laptop was real in 2018. And they also knew, we found out from Durham, that the FBI knew in 2016 that Hillary had concocted this whole Trump-Russian collusion thing and that she was gonna use that as a weapon against them. They knew it wasn't legit and yet they allowed it to go on. They knew it was going on. Barack Obama, all of them knew it was going on. They knew it was fake, but they all allowed it to happen anyway. Let me find this real quick. Here is it. Oh, I probably don't, I don't have it here. I've retweeted so much stuff now. All right, well anyway, we found out that yes, the FBI knew, here, let me just do this, the FBI knew in 2018. Here we go, here we go, all right. Finally got it. So the FBI knew in 2018 or 2019, sorry, Hunter Biden's missing laptop is early as December 19th. They knew it was real. It was confirmed and yet what did we hear for several years that it was unconfirmed, that it was Russian disinformation and they did this specifically to give Biden the edge in the 2020 election because if this stuff all started coming out now, then Trump likely would have won. The FBI knew as early as December 2019 that Hunter Biden believed Russians had stolen his laptop, which he believed made him vulnerable to blackmail because of compromising evidence on the laptop, combined with his father's presidential ambitions. This explosive revelation establishes that either Joe Biden lied to the American people or the intelligence community lied to him. And just think about the fact that they suppressed an actual news agency, actual news and these are the people that are talking about the threat to democracy. All right, I'm gonna go to comment or to the comments here. And what do you all say in Durham as a punk? He did, yeah, yeah, Durham basically should have done about it seems like he's kind of part of this. See, he's kind of like subterfuge. I also wanted to talk a little bit about this interview that Obama did real quick. And I'm probably gonna end this, but. So Barack Obama did an interview with Christiana Montpour, who is a Democrat state propaganda. She has been for a long time. She continues to be. And she did this interview with Barack Obama where they talk about all these threats to democracy without a hint of self-awareness that they're literally just talking about themselves. So let's ask about the creaky or not institutions in the United States. The spectacle of a former president being. Hold on, before we get to that part, I wanna get to this part first. I have another part of this interview here real quick. I wanna get, where is it? Of course, I'm not gonna be able to find it now. Hold on, where is it? Oh yeah, so Obama, well, I'll get to that. Hold on. Oh man, where is this? I had this video already queued up and now I can't find it. Let's see, Obama, okay, here we go, here we go. Let's do this one first and then I'll get to that one. President of the United States, you are just one representative of the people in a series of co-equal branches. There are checks and balances to the system. You are subject to those checks and balances. You cannot ignore them. Democrats aren't there. You cannot make your own rules. But Democrats do. You cannot view the Justice Department as your personal law firm. But Democrats do. They do not ignore norms and... What they do? Guardrails that have been put in place to assure that your self-interest isn't what drives these institutions, but is rather the interests of the American people. Is that why when your attorney general, Eric Holder, ignored congressional subpoenas, which we are told is illegal and should be punished? When he did that, Democrats walked out of a vote to hold him accountable and then on an abominable point of judge throughout the, or blocked the censure that they tried to, because they tried to censure Eric Holder and hold him accountable, but then the judge blocked that, okay? But they're gonna say here and tell you that these laws are applied equally. And so if you have anybody who's occupying that office who disregards that higher purpose, then you're gonna have problems. Oh, you mean like the gun-running program that you had going on? Oh, but that's completely different. Okay, so obviously a lot of what he said is just lacking self-awareness. They're guilty of all that. But then Christianity on poor ads do it here. And I wanted to comment on it. Well, what's happening? So let's ask about the creaky or not institutions in the United States. The spectacle of a former president being federally indicted, how is the rest of the world, the democratic world, maybe even the non-democratic world meant to interpret that indictment? And indeed, the fact that a federal indictee is running is able to run for the highest office in the land, maybe even the world. It's funny that she doesn't mention that it, the detail that the president that's now under indictment is the current sitting president's main rival and the main rival of the state media and of the Democrats in general, okay? And this is a state media propagandist on a state media channel talking both to a Democrat former president, and these are both Democrats, and they're asking what that looks like. Like if it was America, and we were looking at a country where that was happening, we would say that that's not a democracy. That's a banana republic or it's a dictatorship or something. But somehow it's different when they do it or they don't see it as that. But she didn't mention the fact that this also happens to be his greatest political rival. They never mentioned that little detail. It's less than ideal, right? But the fact that we have a... And he's being indicted for something that we know Democrats have gotten away with. Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden especially. Joe, you know, Joe Biden having these documents in his garage, just sitting there in his garage which he admitted. He's like, oh yeah, my Corvettes in there. It's a locked garage. Oh, okay, that makes all right then. Former president who is having to answer to charges brought by prosecutors does uphold... By a DOJ, from a DOJ that is the boss is Joe Biden, who is Donald Trump's main political rival. Hold the basic notion that nobody's above the law. And the allegations will now be sorted out through a court process. And he says that, nobody is above the law, right? But, and you'll remember, Obama, they said that was a scandal-free presidency and that's because the media basically just covered for every scandal involving Barack Obama. You'll remember that the kids in Kage's thing that was such a big deal on the Trump, actually started during, well, it didn't start under Obama, but Obama built a lot of the facilities that ended up housing these kids in so-called cages. And yet it was never an issue that was connected to Obama at the time. If you look for articles about kids in Kage's or deplorable conditions at these detention facilities, you'll find articles about it, but they're always like generally about governments and things. They're never targeted at Barack Obama. They're never, Barack Obama's never blamed. And like I said, there were plenty of scandals like Eric Holder ignoring congressional subpoenas to testify about a gun-running program that him and Obama were running. And so he dodged that. And so he was above the law. Obama was above the law. He got away with that. The media covered for him. And now we know that Barack Obama knew, so the whole, they talk about these threats to democracy, yet they are that. Barack Obama knew, let me get it here, he knew about the fact that this whole Trump-Russian collusion thing was fake from the very get-go. And yet him and the media, the government, they all went along with it. Let's see here. Oh, here we go. Whoop. Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. Happy Friday. And had approved a plan to tie Clinton to 16. Did our government receive intelligence that suggested Secretary Clinton had approved a plan to tie President Trump to Russia? Yes. Was that intelligence important enough for Director Brennan to go brief the President of the United States, the Vice President of the United States, the Attorney General of the United States, and the Director of the FBI? Yes. And was that intelligence put then into a memorandum, a referral memorandum? Yes. And was that memorandum then given to Director Comey and Agent Struck? As soon as it was addressed, yes. Did Director Comey share that memorandum with the FISA court? I'm sorry, can you? Did he share that memorandum with the FISA court? Did Director Comey do that? I'm not aware of that, if he did. Did he share it with the lawyers preparing the FISA application? Not to my knowledge. Did he share it with the agents on the case working the Crossfire Hurricane case? No. Didn't share it with the agents on the case? Can you tell the committee what happened when you took that referral memo and shared it with one of those agents, specifically Supervisory Special Agent Number One? We interviewed the first supervisor of the Crossfire Investigation, the operational person. We showed him the intelligence information. He indicated he'd never seen it before. He immediately became emotional. Got up and left the room with his sweater. Spent some time in the hallway, came back. He was ticked off, wasn't he? He was ticked off, because this is something he should have had as an agent on the case. It's important information that the director of the FBI kept from the people doing the investigation. The information was kept from him. Right, and Obama and all those guys knew about this at the time. So in conclusion, kind of wrapping this all up, because I can already hear my kids upstairs stirring. I could hear the little footsteps. But what do we get from all this? That our government, the media, most foreign institutions are corrupted. Everything that they accuse their opponents of doing and being they themselves are guilty of. That's why they're accusing, because they just, I don't know if it's like a projection thing, or like a propaganda tactic to defend themselves by just accusing their opponents of doing that, because then all their opponents could do is say, no, you're doing that, and it kind of breaks down. Or if they just don't have the self-awareness to see what they are. And what we're seeing is that there's just corruption all throughout this, and that the people who are claiming to be protectors of democracy, warning about the actual threats, no, they are that threat, and they've proven it over and over again. In 2016 after Trump won, the government, the FBI, the media, they all worked together to concoct, because they knew, that's what Durham was just saying, they knew the Trump collusion thing was crap from the beginning, but they let it go because that was the insurance policy that Peter Struck talked about. We know these people were dedicated to torpedoing Trump, and so they attacked democracy. That's what they did, by their own standard. They attacked democracy, but they thought it was justified. They thought, we're doing this for a good reason, because Trump is so dangerous, we have to do this. Little did they know that they were becoming the very monster that they were afraid of, because everything that they're worried about happening, they did. They did everything they could to torpedo and ruin Trump to the point they actually made the world a more dangerous place. I'll give you an example. When Trump warned about Germany being too reliant on Russia and the EU being too reliant on the US for military power, he said that, and that was a huge thing that the Democrats and the media used against him, saying that he was against NATO, he was trying to ruin the NATO alliance, and this was all being done for Putin. Despite the fact Donald Trump armed Ukraine when Barack Obama and Joe Biden wouldn't, and it was actually those javelins that he armed them with, along with some other stuff, it was instrumental in defending Kiev when Putin invaded after Biden took office. Putin always invades when Biden's in the way house for some odd reason, but that never comes up. And so, what they ended up doing, they made fun of Trump, they said it was a big joke, Germany laughed at Trump when he gave the warning at the UN, and yet, what turned out? That's what it turned out to be. Germany was too reliant, the EU's too reliant on Russia for energy, which is why Russia's doing just fine now, and those sanctions aren't really working, because the EU and all these countries are now buying Russian oil, but just through India, okay? Russia sells it to India, India sells it to, and so they're buying oil, they're enriching the country that threatens them, okay? Trump warned about this, and these people were so myopic and so wrapped up in their mission to get Trump that they couldn't see it. And it continues, everything we're watching is just a continuation of that, of them trying to cover their tracks and continue this going. And the 2020 election, the FBI knew that the Hunter Biden laptop was real, and yet the government again, coordinated again with the media, and the Democrats, and Big Tech, and they suppressed real news because they didn't want to hurt Joe Biden in the election. So they interfered in the election, and again, told themselves, hey, yeah, you know, we're doing all the things that we said were bad, but we're doing it for the right reasons. Like, Sam Stein is that name, not Sam Stein, the intellectual guy. I can't think of his name all of a sudden. But what did he say? He said, oh yes, there was a left-wing conspiracy to stop Trump, but that was okay because anything that Biden has done pales in comparison to what the threat that Trump brings. Trump represents a speeding meteor coming towards the earth. And folks, I'm gonna end on this, that's what makes these people dangerous because they see themselves as these protectors of democracy, whatever that is, because it really just seems like they want people thinking it means the Democrat party in power and everybody else disappeared, I guess, somehow, one way or the other, and they could justify doing anything. We're seeing that now. The fact that the press isn't, I mean, we saw a little bit of pushback there at the end of the press conference, at the very end, they just threw it in there, at the end of a press conference on a Friday, okay? Something's not right. Something is not right. There is a very real threat and authoritarian push here by these people. They want to, one party rule by the Democrats, they wanna outlaw their opposition and we're just seeing that all unfold. You can't believe anything you hear from these people. Everything that they do is in service of protecting the Democrats, protecting their power, protecting their agenda, whoever, the powers that be, whatever they want, that's what they're enforcing. All right, folks, I love you all. I really appreciate you watching me today. Probably no video today because I just spent all my, hey, Nat time doing this live stream, but I do thank you all for watching. I'll chop it up probably and do something with it, but keep coming back. I will see you all probably tomorrow for a live stream. So go ahead and check back. There's a link for Discord in the description and in the pinned comment. So come over here and hang out. We'll debate.
