TOM EMMER: âPROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT!â
Video transcript
The time for Joe Biden's failed policies is over. The time for President Trump's proven leadership is right now. America's decline is over. With the stroke of a pen, President Trump moving swiftly and aggressively to make good on his campaign promises. First 100 days, President Trump signing the Lincoln-Riley Act into law. American teacher Mark Fogel is free this morning after three and a half years in Russian detention. The Trump administration, we will defend the proud tradition of female athletes and we will not allow men to beat up, injure and cheat our women and our girls. From now on, women's sports will be only for women. Since taking office, my administration has launched the most sweeping border and immigration crackdown in American history. And we quickly achieved the lowest numbers of illegal border crosses ever recorded. Thank you. The media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation. We must have legislation to secure the border. But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president. Welcome to the first ever White House Digital Assets Summit. Last year I promised to make America the Bitcoin superpower of the world and we're taking historic action. No one in this room could have envisioned this, just a couple years ago. We're going to be returning education very simply back to the states where it belongs. I'm here and I'm alive. President Trump, you saved my life. We knew we need someone who do the things. That's President Trump. We are here because of President Trump. Thank you. I do say Donald Trump is a master negotiator. I mean, there is no other leader on the world stage that has his experience and has shown what he has shown in his first term. What he's willing to do and what he can get accomplished. If anybody can help these people get together and bring peace back to the region, it's Donald J. Trump. We have seven trillion dollars of investment already. You can go back many years and for a whole year they haven't had anywhere near that. Mostly they'd be well under a trillion dollars of investment.

âRates are plummeting, oil prices are plummeting, deregulation is happening. President Trump is not going to bend..."
Video transcript
That's what we've been pointing out this morning. And the president has been pointing it out. Rates are plummeting. Oil prices are plummeting. Deregulation is happening. We've got all of these things happening. President Trump is not going to bend. He told me a number of times that he's trying to build the economy and make it independent, as opposed to relying on China for things like prescription drugs.

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
A special thank you to great New Jersey Congressman Jeff Van Drew for his fight against a large scale Windmill DISASTER off the coast of Southern New Jersey. It needed MASSIVE GOVERNMENT SUBSIDY that was impossible to justify. Hopefully the project is dead and gone, as almost all unsightly and environmentally unsound Windmill project should be. Congratulations to the great people of New Jersey. You have FINALLY won your war on stupidity!!!
I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump Administration, which is currently in formation. I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our Country. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
I am very surprised that the Democrats, who fought a hard and valiant fight in the 2020 Presidential Election, raising a record amount of money, didn’t have lots of $’s left over. Now they are being squeezed by vendors and others. Whatever we can do to help them during this difficult period, I would strongly recommend we, as a Party and for the sake of desperately needed UNITY, do. We have a lot of money left over in that our biggest asset in the campaign was “Earned Media,” and that doesn’t cost very much. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Sheriff Keith Pearson, who I just met, and the wonderful people of St. Lucie County, are being hit incredibly hard by Hurricane Milton. The life-threatening winds, torrential rain, and destructive tornados are some of the worst our State has ever seen. Many homes and businesses have already been destroyed, including the Sheriff’s Office itself. We are with you, and will help St. Lucie County, and all Communities, rebuild — STRONGER AND BETTER THAN EVER BEFORE. GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
Heading to Michigan — We’ll be going to North Carolina next week. Date to be determined, because I don’t want to do anything that’s going to interrupt their Rescue efforts.

I would like to thank everyone for your concern and well wishes - It was certainly an interesting day! Most importantly, I want to thank the U.S. Secret Service, Sheriff Ric Bradshaw and his Office of brave and dedicated Patriots, and, all of Law Enforcement, for the incredible job done today at Trump International in keeping me, as the 45th President of the United States, and the Republican Nominee in the upcoming Presidential Election, SAFE. THE JOB DONE WAS ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING. I AM VERY PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!

Kamala, your statement is nothing more than a political spin to help you look better in your presidential campaign against Donald Trump. You have never walked a single day in our shoes. Our kids were murdered because of your administration, and you are partly to blame for that as well. What happened at Arlington was, President Trump was invited by those families who have their soldiers buried at Arlington. They were invited there as a friend, as somebody who has taken the time numerous times, on numerous occasions, to hear our stories, to speak our kids' names, and to help us get some accountability from your administration, because in over three years, we have gotten nothing but more and more lies, just like your statement, more and more spun lies and cover-ups to make you and your administration look good. But there is one thing that you said in your statement that was true. No one should be running for president if they cannot honor military members, their families, as well as veterans. So I guess that means that you should step down, Kamala.

Coral Doolittle, Mother of Corporal Humberto A. Sanchez…
Video transcript
My name is Coro O'Dulero. I am Corporal Humberto Sanchez' mother. This is my statement of what happened on August 26, 2024. My son is not very in Arlington. But I really feel like when President Trump wouldn't pay tribute and pay his respect in Arlington for our kids, it was not just the ones buried in there. It was for all of our kids. And it was an invitation that the families actually extend to him. And it's not the first time that he actually meet with us and share time with our families. After three years, until now, Kamala Harris and President Biden didn't even say their 13 names. They called the withdrawal of Afghanistan a success. And for us, it was just sadness and a disgrace. They are the responsible persons of murdering our kids. And until these days, they did not give us a meeting. They did not accept to meet with us and give us an explanation of what happened. I am the commander in chief. He definitely left our kids behind and just to fill the agenda of his prior commitments. I invite Kamala Harris and Joe Biden to accept the meeting with us and meet with us and explain us what was the whole deal behind the withdrawal in Afghanistan. I think that as a parent, we deserve an explanation and we deserve the truth of what happened with our kids that day.

Video transcript
Vice President Harris, my name is Steve Nakui. I'm the father of Lance Corporal Karim M. Nakui. And your administration killed my son. Deliberately in exchange for political theatrics, so you could have a final day of the evacuation coincide with September 11th. Ignoring the vice of your generals, the Doha Agreement, and countless other veterans and members of Congress. Denying the safety of the Afghans and the servicemen and women. Your choice to play politics in 2021, killed 170 Afghans, 13 US service members, and wounded 45 of our diverse members, as well as countless Afghans. You were not at Dover for the dignified transfer. At no time have you reached out to me to offer your condolences, to offer thank you for Karim's sacrifice and service. Not once have you honored him by saying his name, so I said it for you. You have disparaged all 13 who have lost their lives as well as their families, exhibiting your lack of gratitude by your silence. I agree with you on one thing, that a person like you should never and will never stand behind the seal of presidency. You are a DEI Vice President. And contrary to our kids, the worst that America has to offer. I will pray for you that God has mercy on your soul.

In light of what is going on in the world today, I believe it is imperative that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. receive Secret Service protection — immediately. Given the history of the Kennedy Family, this is the obvious right thing to do!
Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers yesterday, as it was God alone who prevented the unthinkable from happening. We will FEAR NOT, but instead remain resilient in our Faith and Defiant in the face of Wickedness. Our love goes out to the other victims and their families. We pray for the recovery of those who were wounded, and hold in our hearts the memory of the citizen who was so horribly killed. In this moment, it is more important than ever that we stand United, and show our True Character as Americans, remaining Strong and Determined, and not allowing Evil to Win. I truly love our Country, and love you all, and look forward to speaking to our Great Nation this week from Wisconsin.🙏 DJT

Every time the Radical Left Democrats, Marxists, Communists, and Fascists indict me, I consider it a GREAT BADGE OF HONOR. I’m being indicted for YOU.

In the end, they’re not after me, they’re after you—and I’m just standing in their way! From the very first day that we take back the White House from Crooked Joe Biden, I believe we are going to have the four greatest years in the history of our Country!

Stephen Moore: “If it’s about the ECONOMY, Trump is going to win in a landslide—I guarantee it!” https://www.DonaldJTrump.com
Video transcript
Two thirds of Americans who consider themselves middle class are now facing financial hardship. Many remain deeply uneasy about the economy and the prospect of a looming recession. Everybody's suffering. Everybody doesn't make any sense. Everything's gone up an absurd amount. Americans are paying an 18% inflation tax. All states have hit gas price highs. All 50 of them. The IRS is building an army of new auditors, and some of them could be armed. A New Democratic spending bill had nearly 87,000 new IRS agents. Going after low-income earners are easy targets for an audit. The poorest families were audited at a rate five times higher than for everyone else. That's Bidenomics in action. When I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips. People making tips. Voters in key swing states overwhelmingly favored the economy under Trump. If it's about the economy, Trump is going to win a landslide, I guarantee it. Voters say it is Trump who would better handle the economy. Her saying the economy and everything is better, it was far better under President Trump. We have the greatest economy in the history of our country, and we're going to have it again, but in spades, it's going to be bigger and better than ever before.

SUCCESS WILL BRING OUR COUNTRY TOGETHER! https://www.DonaldJTrump.com
Video transcript
-I want to bring the country together. And success does bring the country together because we had the most successful economy in the history of our country just prior to COVID. And even at the end, I got it back. It was an amazing thing. But we had the most successful economy in history. And I was getting calls from radical left people wanting to meet. And I'm telling you, success -- African-American, Asian-American, Hispanic-American, women, men, people with diplomas, people without diplomas, people that went to MIT, Harvard, and Wharton, people that didn't get out of high school, the most successful economy we've ever had, and people that I would say you call them on the radical left. Call it whatever you want -- liberal people, progressive people. They were all calling, and they were saying, "Let's get together. This is amazing." Nobody -- every single group -- nobody has ever done better than during that period of time in my administration during that period. And they wanted to get together. And it would have happened. We would have happened. It was really something -- I'm not sure I would have been able to say to you that there was a way to unify. Success will unify. And I think we're going to have a tremendous success. We have to bring it back fast because this country is -- we're a failing nation. We are really a failing nation right now. We're being left at all over the world.

Thank you to Boris Johnson! "This was a machine-gun mob-style hit job on Trump. It was nakedly political - and will make his victory more likely, not less.” “It was nakedly political. It was completely artificial. The Democrat prosecutors thought they were being so clever: tripping Trump up over this technicality – like collaring Al Capone for tax evasion, they probably told themselves. Except that everyone with any common sense can see what I consider their real motives, how they were combing the rule book for stuff to use against Trump.” “The vast mass of American voters could see what I believe was really happening: that the liberal elites were just appalled at Trump's continuing popularity and his ability to connect with voters – and they were using anything they could find to derail his campaign. That is why the anti-Trump lawfare is backfiring.”

“TRUMP GOES STRAIGHT FROM COURTROOM TO CAMPAIGN” https://www.DonaldJTrump.com
Video transcript
Well, Donald Trump was in court yesterday and jury selection, they narrated it. Seven jurors were sworn in for this hush money trial. Eleven more are needed. But don't you think that's quick to get seven? Especially after the first day. Yeah, exactly, exactly. A tech worker, an English teacher, an oncology nurse, sales professional and software engineer and two lawyers. But look what Trump did. He left the courthouse and went up there to Harlem. In front of that bodega where the man who no longer works there, remember he was working there, Jose Alba. And a guy comes in and is trying to steal stuff from him. Tried to kill him. Tried to kill him and so Jose kills him. And Jose was charged with murder, went to Rikers. Those charges were dropped after everyone in New York and all of our Fox viewers were complaining. Well, they couldn't go back to work because he was getting hassled on a daily basis. Right, that was Alvin Bragg, right? Right, and we saw the video when this happened back in 2022. And so yesterday, Mr. Trump says he was invited by the Bodega Association to stop by. They say they've got a real problem there. But essentially, they're using a little campaign strategy. He is, he, the former president, is trying to turn the tables on the DA here in Manhattan who is prosecuting him in the Hush Money porn star trial. He's saying, look, Alvin Bragg came after me. It's a fake case. Why is he coming after me when he should be going after actual people who are breaking the law? Here's the former president. This is all politics. This is coming out of the White House. And you know, it makes me campaign locally, and that's okay. [CROSSTALK] We're doing better now than we've ever done. So I think it's having a reverse. You know what, all I want is fairness. And these people have to be treated better, the Bodega Association. Bodega's, because every week they're being robbed two, three times. It's crazy. It's crazy. And you know what, the police can do it. They can stop it. But they have to be allowed to do their job. >> Four more years, four more years, four more years. >> This is Harlem, New York. >> Yeah, I didn't do their DNA, but that does not look like a, that looks like a very diverse crowd. >> It is, because that's Harlem. And you know, Joe Biden has a fatal flaw here. He keeps saying, you know, he's a billionaire. You can talk about where he's from all day, but it's about what candidates represent and who they represent. And when you see diverse people out there saying four more years, Harlem has been broken. Do you think those businesses want more taxes? Do you think they're comfortable with the crime happening in this city? As Alvin Bragg, the only time you see his face is when he's going after Donald Trump. There is no sympathy for the victims there. You don't hear anything about, from the current president, about taking the housing from the seniors in Harlem and putting the legals in there. You think Donald Trump is gonna support that? >> You know, just to look at the difference in Joe Biden and Donald Trump, look, he's like chanting with them and holding up his fist, going around shaking hands, taking pictures with these individuals. Joe Biden just- >> He talked to the press. He actually answered their questions, and you know what, I'm pretty sure those questions were on pre-screen. There were no cards. And he doesn't embrace, he knows he's in the middle of a gag order. He knows he could easily say, guys, I gotta get myself in trouble here. But he goes, no, no, I'll take it. >> And number two is what I think is important, is that Donald Trump can go to other places. Like, how about the subway station where Danny Penny was forced to just bring into action and save those people? >> He might. You think every day after court, he's gonna choose a different location in New York? >> Right, and today is an off day because they are making progress. And Brian, your question about whether or not, you know, why they seated so many jurors yesterday. Because the day before, the judge said, look, if we don't pick up the pace on this, we're not gonna get Wednesdays off. So suddenly both sides agreed on those seven people. But they still need like five more and a bunch of- >> We want our time off. >> He wants one. The judge wants Wednesday off. >> Yeah. >> They all want Wednesday off. >> But I think it cannot be lost on us, that the President of the United States, former President of the United States, is being forced to campaign in this region alone. Because this judge cannot wait to put the trial at a different day. I think when the former president says that his election interferes, I think there's some credibility there, and there's a point there. Why are they staging all these trials to where he cannot campaign in another state when Joe Biden gets to be in Pennsylvania? >> Yeah, and maybe this is the only one, it's okay. But if you have two more trials- >> Right, yeah. >> Where you gotta sit there in the audience- >> The judge said he has to stay in New York, right? >> That's what he is. >> At night, after a party could be- >> In the court. >> In the court. >> He could travel around. >> He could travel in new rallies all over the country at night. >> Exactly. >> Well, what's it gonna do today? >> Lee Seldin says New York's in play. >> That's the question. >> Lee Seldin goes, Donald Trump is gonna put New York in play. >> If he keeps going to these different spots that have been forgotten, you don't see Joe Biden in Harlem campaigning- >> He doesn't go to New York, he wouldn't even talk to the mayor. >> Exactly. >> Well, keep in mind, the year that Jose Alba was assaulted by that guy, the guy tried to kill him, that was when Republicans ran on, look at the crime. It's rampant in the streets. And Republicans in certain localities did a pretty good job capitalizing on that. >> One of the jurors that was excused, she said inside the courtroom, the jurors were pretty even for Manhattan, which is surprising. >> One of the things that she said, and I think it's important to note, is that some of the people were saying that they watch Fox. Just because they say they watch Fox doesn't mean that they're Republican. We have more Democrats that watch our network more than any other- >> But that same person said they watch MSNBC and they read the New York Times. >> So one watches, I so want to listen to The Breakfast Club with Charmin and the God. The other works at Disney, that could be dicey. And the other one reads the Daily News. The Daily News is the most anti-Trump newspaper in the country and it's great competition. >> Look at this, okay, Daily News here. They get their news from Google and TikTok. This one- >> Disney. >> Let's see, there was another one, New York Times. Your list is different than mine, I had a longer list. >> It's interesting because what Donald Trump said yesterday is he's just looking for jurors who will be fair. Fair. You can watch anything you want. That's what you want, yeah. Just want fairness.

MAKE NEW YORK SAFE AGAIN!
Video transcript
Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump got sworn by his supporters, some supporters of his, as he campaigned at a New York City bodega yesterday. That was the same bodega where worker Jose Alba stabbed an ex-con in self-defense, only to be hit with a murder charge that stood for three weeks until it was dropped. Brooke Singman has more on that episode. Brooke? Yes, Dave. After spending the day in court, the former president made a little visit to the Manhattan bodega. Trump says he was invited by the bodega association to discuss rising crime in New York City and how that crime puts the owners and workers in danger. And when he got there, he was met by a large crowd of supporters chanting Trump and four more years. They even broke into song at one point, singing the national anthem. People have to be treated better. The bodega association, bodegas, because every week they're being robbed two, three times. It's crazy. It's crazy. And you know what? The police can do it. They can stop it, but they have to be allowed to do that. At that same bodega in 2022, Jose Alba was attacked by a man while he was working behind the counter. Alba grabbed a knife and stabbed and killed that man in self-defense in Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg initially charged Alba with murder before it was later dropped amid public pressure. Alba now lives in the Dominican Republic. But in 2024, there have been more than 4,000 robberies in the Big Apple, which is up 4.3% from last year. There have also been over 17,000 retail thefts, an increase of almost 7% from 2023. The former president has been confined to the courtroom in New York for his trial this weekend. He's required to attend every day going forward. Trump says his opponents and Democrats want to keep him off the campaign trail, but he told his supporters yesterday that he thinks it will have the "reverse effect." The second day of the trial ended with seven jurors being seated. The trial has been adjourned until tomorrow at 9 30 a.m. Lawrence. I just get a kick of the former president coming to Harlem. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. All right. Thanks, Brooke.

Video transcript
- All right, welcome to Rob Schmidt tonight. We start with breaking news. You've been watching the last couple minutes, you just saw it. Former President Trump, actually his motorcade, just leaving a bodega in Harlem tonight here at seven o'clock here on the East Coast. We had former President Trump in Harlem tonight with a huge crowd in this neighborhood. All of Broadway, around 139th Street, blocked off a huge crowd screaming four more years, screaming Trump's name in Harlem, New York. This is a place Republicans never, ever, ever go. And what a scene this was. We can pull up some video if we have it, just to show you kind of the moment and what it all looked like. Here he was speaking to some of the press. This is after his second day in court for this ridiculous trial that he's facing in New York. Trump showcasing the rot of New York City that Alvin Bragg has been ignoring while working to destroy Joe Biden's 2024 political opponent. Trump arrived at the Harlem bodega where Jose Alba, you remember this story, where Jose Alba stabbed a violent customer in self-defense, only to find himself facing murder charges brought on by Alvin Bragg, who is effectively a criminal advocate in this city. You can see right there some of the people that came out to see the former president and cheer him on. That's Harlem, that's what Harlem looks like. Those are the residents, very black, very Hispanic. Bragg eventually dropped the charges against Jose Alba after a fierce public outcry, but not before the 51-year-old spent a very long weekend on Rikers Island, a very dangerous jail in New York. He was not able to post the $250,000 bail for a couple of days. This was quite a moment here. We had a chance to hear from the former president. He talked about his case, the Alvin Bragg case, as he went around speaking to a number of people. He went inside of the bodega. He spoke to a number of people inside. He came outside, spoke to the media. This is what he said about the Bragg case against him. -This is all politics. This is coming out of the White House, and, you know, it makes me campaign locally, and that's okay. We're doing better now than we've ever done, so I think it's having a reversal. All I want is fairness, and these people have to be treated better, the bodega association, bodegas, because every week, they're being robbed two, three times. It's crazy. It's Alvin Bragg's fault. Alvin Bragg does nothing. He goes after guys like Trump. -So, there you go. I mean, let's pull up just some more of that video just to show this moment, and again, just to reemphasize how crazy it is to see a Republican running for president going up into Harlem. I mean, this is a Democrat stronghold, if there ever was a Democrat stronghold. Manhattan is 90% Biden voting. Harlem is probably beyond that when you go district by district, so this was a moment, and what you're seeing right here is a political shift in this country. You're seeing the African-American vote leaving the Democrat party, realizing they brought them nothing for the last 50 years, moving on to try something new, just like Trump said in 2016. What the hell do you have to lose? Where have you gotten with Democrats in charge? You've gotten nowhere. He's not afraid to go to Harlem. He's not afraid to take chances. This is why he's a political icon.
