What's occurred this year, in 90 days, we had three police officers shot to death on the job, separate incidents, not one of them had their gun out of their holster. These weren't barricaded gunmen, wasn't a bank robbery, these were ambushes. That's in Michigan, three in 90 days, and they never fired a shot, never got their guns out. So, I like to borrow an old line, maybe J.D. Vance would like it, but it's an old marine. Jesse Poehler once said, "We've located the enemy, they have us surrounded." That's how I feel right now. They got us surrounded, but when we see you at a funeral, when we see you writing letters, when we see you hugging babies of fallen officers, I just want you to know that we feel like our arms are around those people. And I can't begin to tell you how much that means to us. The things that you do, we've got right now 16 officers indicted for felonies in Michigan that I think, if given enough money and time, you'd find that they were all innocent, or most of them. We do hire human beings, so I can't explain everything. But when you have that happen, and you see the bad guys just ignore you, and Anthony here will talk more about how it affects the people on the road, but we can't hire anybody, and it's not about money. People want to give money. I know you argue with these people and say, "Just throw money at it, it's stupid." But if we can't get the right candidates, and we can't get them because we're not convincing them at a younger age that this is an honorable job, the honor is gone, I believe in it, I think people here believe in it, I know none of them want to be without police, but we need good people. And so the things that you do, the things that you talk about, qualified immunity, I think most people don't know what it means. We understand it. I know you do. They think with qualified immunity means we can go rob a bank and not get in trouble. Nobody understands that that's not the case. But the things that you do for us, the things that you say, the times that you and I have met before, you spoke at our convention, we did a big screen TV, the things you do really matter, and they do help us. And we're all behind you 100 percent. Thank you. Thank you. So, Jim, one thing we're going to be doing, and we're going to be doing it strongly, and I've wanted to do it and looked at it for a long time, but we have to do it. But immunity for some of these places, you said you have 14 people and you don't believe maybe one or two, I mean, maybe some are guilty of something. But I would bet you a lot of them aren't. And they're going through hell and their pension is going to be gone. Frankly, their family is going to end up being gone, their car, their house, everything. So we want to do immunity. We also want to call for the death penalty for anybody killing a police officer. (audience applauds)

My name is Nancy Jafer. I'm a Lebanese-American Muslim entrepreneur. I am a psychologist and a holistic wellness practitioner. I own a wellness center in Dearborn, Michigan. It's called Evolution Empowerment. And I'm not really here to talk about the economy, because with that regard, I have utter faith in you. And you're golden to me. What I am here-- you're welcome. What I am here to discuss is the health crisis. And it is exactly that. It's really a crisis in this country. We are the sickest population in the world. And we find at status quo that we spend more money on health care than any other country. So we have a system that is looking to obtain lifelong consumers. We're not really looking for cure or healing. And that's very concerning to me. Before I became a holistic practitioner, I was a school psychologist. And I worked for the public schools for over a decade. And I was constantly frustrated with the incessant over-diagnosis and over-medicating and over-labeling of small children. I don't know another country that finds it appropriate to give a five-year-old three different pharmaceutical drugs, including an antipsychotic. And this is to manage misbehavior. They are not looking for root cause. We're not looking for toxicity. We're not looking for gut health issues, or fluoride, or food, or diet, and then getting into the food itself. I mean, we ingest poison. Countries all over the world would never accept their citizens to ingest what we take in every day and what our children take in every day. You must love Bobby Kennedy, right? I do. I think so. You sound like Bobby Kennedy to me. And the thing that I think is even more concerning is that we are inundated with these endocrine-disrupting chemicals. And they have these long-term detrimental effects on the reproductive system of both men and women. Fertility rates are down. Sperm is lower than it's ever been. It's terrifying to me, honestly. And my purpose is to constantly use every single opportunity to raise awareness about these topics and to hold our agencies accountable for the fact that we put them in place to protect us, not to harm us. So I also have a purpose to let people know that you don't need to take a narcotic every time you feel a little pain, or that you don't need to be on three different antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications to mask a mental health symptom. And certainly to let parents know that it is not OK for birth control to be the first line of defense when your daughter has acne, when your 14-year-old daughter has acne. I find our system archaic. I think it is toxic. And it's corrupt, frankly. And what hurts me the most is that people who are out here giving Americans an opportunity to think differently and try natural routes are the ones that are being relentlessly censored. I see miracles, honestly, at my center every day. People heal rapidly before my eyes with no side effects. But nobody is talking about that. Because the chokehold that big pharma has and big agriculture has on us is criminal. And it needs to stop. Nancy, thank you. Thank you so much, Nancy. So when I heard about Robert Kennedy and Make America Healthy again, I felt a glimmer of hope that I haven't felt in a very long time. I have to say, I am genuinely terrified for humanity in general. The world needs healing. And I can only hope that you and your campaign are the catalyst for that. Because I know for sure the other team is not. That's right.

So the Osman Dinner was in New York City, but it was televised everywhere, and it's probably going to be the last truly national event in the presidential campaign. Kamala Harris didn't show up, and so she lost. Donald Trump showed up, and so he won. Some things are just that simple. Now, you'd think it would just cost her among Catholic voters, where she's already lost enormous ground, but frankly, her cringe-worthy, bizarre, weird video, which so many people in the audience took as an insult and put down to Catholics, probably cost her Catholic and non-Catholic votes as well. It was an incredibly bad taste. And you know what? Following the Brett Baer interview, along with last night's weird video, the Kamala Harris strategy pretty clearly is to avoid any serious issues and instead just try to attack Donald Trump, and that's in bad taste. Not to suggest that every joke Donald Trump made last night was worth repeating. But, the rowdy crowd. But he did have a couple that were genuinely funny zingers, including one of my favorites, that Tim Walz wasn't there, but he's going to tell people he was. Trump also got a big laugh when he said how wonderful it was to be in New York City voluntarily without a subpoena. And then he said the dinner had to end soon because the room was rented out to migrants later on. You know, just good, clean fun. But Trump was relaxed, clearly in a good space. He wasn't able to use a teleprompter, but he read very, very well from his notes. Early the next morning, he looked equally relaxed and at ease, appearing on the popular show Fox and Friends. Before the Al Smith dinner, by the way, he visited a barbershop in the Bronx and shared common experiences with that group. Finally, he took a bunch of questions on the tarmac as he flew out this morning to Detroit for more campaigning. Kamala Harris's people are saying he's not appearing before the media. Really? That's nuts. He's everywhere answering questions and showing his high content message for the future of America. Okay, he's talking issues. He's talking economy, border, crime, energy, inflation, Elon Musk and deregulation to shrink the government. He's talking tax cuts. He's talking tariffs to protect America from unfair trading practices by our competitors. Now, let's stop there for a moment. EU tariffs, Europe, are 50% higher than the United States. China tariffs are more than twice as high as the United States. Brazil tariffs are three and a half times as high. India tariffs are over five times as high. And these are all big trading partners with the US and that great tariff policeman in the sky called the WTO World Trade Organization permits these countries to get away with it. So let me just say the time is long past in American politics where the US can just stand by and do nothing while our foreign competitors and adversaries rip us off. A recent Bloomberg poll shows swing stayed voters support Trump's tariffs by a 24 point majority. And let me say, actually as a tough tariff negotiator like Trump will actually lead to freer and fairer trade. That's reciprocity. In other words, you reduce your tariffs, will reduce ours. Even though liberal economists don't understand this yet, so what? Not only this, companies and investors all over the world will come here to avoid the tariffs and to take advantage of Mr. Trump's big tax cuts. And his deregulation and his cheaper energy and his stable King dollar. Trump's trade strategy is not only to win the global war for business, but also to start up new job creating factories. So let me repeat, reciprocity is the new free trade. Trump said in Chicago and he'll keep on saying it. Now he didn't talk about tariffs at the Al Smith dinner last night, but he did talk about God's providence and divine mercy that has kept him alive. And that's why he won the night and the day after looking and acting very much like a winner.

One thing that the Democrats keep sending to our community is to scare them, that you will come and deport them, although some of them are second and third generation immigrants. So I want you to respond to these accusations and fear delivering to our community. They say every week they have a different concept for me, I'm going to be the biggest dictator in the world, I'm going to destroy the world, they have so many things that they've said about me and nothing sticks, is this the new one, I'm going to come and we're going to deport, but just your community. It's a tremendous honor to be with you, now we're going to go make two stops, we're going to make a big speech, but this was a very important one, this is my first stop, and this is an honor of the mayor, because in particular he is the president of the U.S.

If you're not from Massachusetts chances are you have not seen this clip from last night's Senate debate And this is worth watching for anybody in the United States Don't focus on crypto. She had the CEO of JP Morgan Chase Available for questioning and they had financed these largest child sex trafficking operation in history with Jeffrey Epstein And you know Sarah wanted to ask a single question She wanted to talk about crypto because she's so hyper focused now I know that because I was as a child for a period of two years I might be a little more sensitive to those child victims, but I want to ask Sarah to Warren Why would you not ask one question? JP Morgan Chase settled for 290 million dollars to these victims They had to settle with the US Virgin Islands and Sarah Warren doesn't ask the question Why because a former Democrat president's involved because her donors are involved because people that she knows are involved again Loyalty to an agenda loyalty to a party I come back I come in and I want transparency on everything I'd like her to answer the question on behalf of all those victims though. So look I have stayed after the banks I have stayed after the regulators that regulate the banks I have done everything I humanly can to try to get more fairness into our financial system What I don't hear mr. Deaton talking about is what is the return on investment that his? Crypto investors are expecting from having put millions of dollars into his race Look, I'm all for having a crypto system if people want to buy and sell crypto All I want are just some basic fair rules the same kind of fair rules that you apply to all of our financial I do want to move on but she asked a question of you to go ahead. Listen, I can't I can't help I can't help it when she goes to ban an entire industry that they're motivated against her because they see a viable candidate But listen, the rules are already there senator Warren, you notice she didn't answer the question of victims you know, you can't call yourself a Absolute warrior for women if you only select the women you're willing to protect

Hey, does anybody else feel like Kamala Harris is losing by a lot more despite what the polls say? And now her campaign is a complete dumpster fire and she's just grasping at straws right now? Because what's up with the attack on black males by the Democratic Party? Why do they believe they could tell us how to vote? It's almost like they believe we don't have a mind of our own. And I mean, they throw in the kitchen sink at us. They didn't got Charlamagne to God, Oprah, Magic Johnson, then the top of the law. If they got Obama trying to condemn us for voting for Donald Trump and shame us in the voting for Kamala Harris because she's a black woman. Now, I wonder if a white politician or a white celebrity was to condemn white males for voting for Kamala Harris and shame them in the voting for Donald Trump because he was white? How would that go over with the Democrats? Y'all would be streaming racism. Yeah, I think they're going to be real salty come November. I think the Republican Party is going to have way more black votes than what they anticipate. Because at the end of the day, we're voting for Donald Trump because we love America and we want to see it prosper. Y'all voting for Kamala Harris because you hate Donald Trump. We're not the same.
