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