party to celebrate paul some, get it? he holds the guinness world record as the oldest living dog and oldest dog ever. congratulations. that's how fox reports this saturday, may 13, 2023. i'm jon scott. thanks for joining us. stay tuned for live edition of big story saturday. ♪ >> hello, i'm joey jones along with kat timpf, guy benson and tomi laren and welcome to the 7:00 p.m. edition of the big saturday show, the big story tonight, any moment florida governor ron desantis is expected to speak in cedar rapids, iowa. we'll bring that to you, live as soon as it starts. the rumored 2024 presidential candidate spending the day barnstorming across the hawkeye state earlier today, a family

picnic and an event with the iowa ghp chairman and the floor government is going all in on the hawkeye state. >> in florida we are a freedom zone permanently and i think that's very important so it's very productive and we are happy about those achievements. we are very excited about the achievements in iowa but we've got a lot of work to do ahead of us as a country. i think we need to restore sanity in this country. >> meanwhile former president terms plan rally in des moines is called off because of bad weather but trump says it will be rescheduled. we start with alexis mcadams live from iowa with the latest. tell us all about it. >> good evening from iowa as we move around trying to follow where governor ron desantis is. he'll be talking again in a few moments although, president -- former president terms of event was canceled, he says it will be

rescheduled but we got to talk about what his plans would be if he did run for president 2024 talking about what he says are woke policies by the white house slamming president biden saying american voters want to look to the future. >> government is not about entertaining. government is not about building a brand or talking on social media and virtue signaling, it's ultimately about winning and producing results and that's what you've done in iowa and what we've done in florida. [cheering and applauding] >> governor desantis expected to announce his presidential campaign any day now. this talking with supporters and flipping burgers at the iowa family picnic fundraiser. the event packed with supporters out in the northwest corner of the state. desantis slammed the white house on the border policies and national security policies and voters we talked to were closely weighing their options. >> in the primary i probably take desantis but he hasn't

announced yet but i voted for trump last time, i like a trump, i just think desantis would represent my values and stand firm. >> president trump had to cancel the rally that was scheduled for tonight due to tornado warnings. the weather has not been optimal. posting this message to truth social saying stay tuned, we will reschedule soon and be safe. back out here live, endorsements for these men continue to roll in. he's been backed by more than three dozen gop legislators in iowa. former president trump sent out a list with more than 100 local elected officials across the hawkeye state the say they want to see the former president back in the white house. >> thank you. god, i think the number has grown from 50 when we were preparing a few hours ago to 100

according to alexis so trump has trump momentum. we were having this in-depth conversation in the green room and we agree on the issues, we probably don't agree fully on where we think this will turn out which is why we have tv shows and debated. when we look at long desantis was about to talk, maybe will announce he's running or maybe not, what does he need to do to make sure he's the one who becomes the nominee? >> he's got his work cut out, there was a moment after the midterm elections were his poles spike because there's a sense for a period of time among republican voters like okay, we need to have a break from the past, look at what he did in florida. there was not what red wave nationally but there was in that state. he run by 20 so buns up in state and nationally since then trump has crept higher and higher overtaking desantis again and building the dominant leave

nationally. the rally around leader affect given the charges in new york that i think a lot of conservatives felt were political and unjustified. trumps another hammering on desantis, our network and as and networks as well and trump kind of has mojo that's right now and certainly momentum and what desantis will have to do if he can, when he announces because i think it's a matter of when, i think probably should be pretty soon because i don't know what waiting is doing for him right now, the legislative session is over in tallahassee, he has to somehow pull back some of the soft trump support into his camp and there's a case to be made, i think a pretty strong one but the way he threads the needle and appeals to those people will be fascinating to watch because easier said than done a lot of cases. >> he earns it, he earns it. when we talk about issues, the border is the biggest issue today. we are living in a place where we don't know if we have a border right now, texas national guard and texas governor doing work to secure our borders and

federal government, you been on the border and have done specials, first-hand experience. long desantis have done a lot in florida is much as a state governor can do's and let's listen to what he had to say about it earlier. >> bugs me about it is you see the carnage of these border towns, you see the carnage with drugs and communities, don't let anyone tell you if you're not a border town this isn't affecting you. i bet mothers throughout florida who have lost children because of internal overdose and if we had a secure border, a lot of that wouldn't happen get the media doesn't care about it. a lot of the left try to ignore it, a lot of them welcome this, it's their vision. >> one desantis on the border, can he went on the water in a primary against trump? >> i think they both have strong records when it comes to the border. donald trump was president so he

had the opportunity to run on the border and largely one in 2016 because he effectively made the border issue. we know he can do it again but ron desantis, don't count them out because he's also got everything he's done to not support illegal immigration with this buzzing, the vital moment of him buzzing illegal immigrants to martha's vineyard, a great moment for him. every time he speaks in a border, he does it from authority and action so if we had a president desantis, i think you'd be just as tough on the border is donald trump it can make it an issue just like donald trump made it issue so i think what is going to come down to his not the two and the policies, i think it's up to ron desantis to explain to trump loyalists and voters if he wants the nomination, i can win. i know you love donald trump but i can win the state that need to be one and donald trump can't

and it's up to donald trump not to just talk about his record. we know he has one but he will have to convince the independents and other republicans sick of the drama that he can actually win this time when he hasn't been able to last two elections. there will be the task ahead of both of them. we will see who rises to the occasion. >> two people look at this and analyze. voters who want to see how their life will be affected by who's in charge and people in politics who strategize and say maybe trump can win primary more easily but desantis can win the general election more easily. if we look at the records, they both are strong on the border and a lot of things but there's one issue that come to fruition since trump left office and doesn't necessarily have as much of a record and that's what desantis has been winning on for a couple of years, cultural were in florida, local politics, captivating moms who are apolitical but feel they have no choice in their kids to school. do you think that can be the issue that helps desantis out? >> i think maybe for some people. i think it shows that -- and concerned how big government

that is to somebody like me but i'm not a republican voter, i'm a libertarian voter but i think obviously i don't believe in taxes so disney's tax status, i don't believe in taxes i think the timing of it going after them for constitutionally protected speech and retaliation, somebody who is a first amendment absolutist like myself although the woke stuff i write about in night in my book how i'm not a fan of that, i'm very no speech and that includes laws that ban speech i may not like or can appear retaliatory and i'm not a lawyer but there's something to it. i'm somebody who i know the cultural were is a huge thing and everybody is yelling about drag queens but i'm here like what is the value of the dollar going to look like? i'm looking at this spending and there's no truly fiscally conservative party and the hasn't been for a while unfortunately. fiscally responsible and the government fiscally responsible

is a fancy way of saying being responsible with my money and your money and our money, it's all taxpayer money. i'd love to see the republican party more focused on that but it is the cultural were in border and they are similar and the disney thing depends if he takes it too far. right now it is popular with republicans. >> a lot of conservative voters and i'm one of them, i like to see people taking their spot smartly and winning cultural wars and some of this stuff you need to battle on. i agree about the physical stuff, the party has been that, democrats are insane. the party has been far worse than they should ask they fiscally conservative party. i think talking about sports earlier on, your husband is in a small, the way of thinking about this in terms of primary is we are still in the first inning and i think in november or december, people got ahead of themselves on the trump is over bandwagon because of those polls, i think there's maybe in overcorrection saying now it's over for desantis, trump got this, let's see a lot of game to be played here, the key for

desantis is he's clearly lost ground nationally, he can't make it all up overnight. will he be different as an actual declared candidate? will make a difference with voters and can he creep up on trump especially in these early state spending time in those places? then the narrative might change again but if he announces that is out there running hard for couple of months and doesn't move the needle like these other candidates have in the polling, that would be a red flag for desantis, we just have to wait and see. >> we are going to wait and maybe we'll see straight from desantis later in the hour and to stick with that small or sports analogy, i hope they can play ball together because we need the country to work and whoever wins the primary, i hope they win the general. coming up on the big saturday show, at any moment ron desantis is expected to speak in cedar rapids, iowa and we will bring that live as soon as it starts but first, the former marine

charged with manslaughter now facing up to 15 years in prison for the chokehold that presumably resulted in the death of gordon neely on a new york subway. while -- why were charges brought so quickly on the soft on crime the a? greg jarrett joins us on right politics is playing its major part of ♪ ♪ ♪

welcome back to the big saturday show, we are looking live in iowa waiting on ron desantis expenses you speak there. we expect him to show up any moment to deliver remarks. he drink against what was going to be a trump rally events that was canceled because of weather so he owned the night now and with that, he's coming in a little later and hopefully going to bring something google enjoys

talk about, hopefully some news. we've been debating all night, 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. hour and that was going to be happening in the primary and we will move on and continue our show. >> now onto the other story, marine charged in the chokehold death of jordan neely in new york city facing up to 15 years in prison for manslaughter. the attorney believes his client actions protected subway passengers. >> subways seeking to harm anyone, he didn't attack anyone, he is putting himself in harm's way for the benefit of others. he should be celebrated. >> so why did soft on crime da alvin bragg charge and so quickly? i think we all know the answer to that but it's worth a discussion. we were discussing this in the earlier show and there's a lot more to get into. you got somebody like jordan neely who has a history, he kidnapped a young child, barely got time for that, assaulted two elderly people, one busting her

eyesockets so he has a violent history and goes on the subway and tells people he's going to kill them, a marine subdues him and then others rushed to help and now the marine is facing up to 15 years manslaughter so when you look at this and see yourself writing on a subway, you wish you had a marine like him on the subway or it is it even worth it to be emily who takes action? >> the things i've gotten to use used to seeing in new york, i don't think i could be a normal of the person ever again. [laughter] the stuff that becomes normal to you but also you see crazy people but you don't ever know if they are a crazy person who's just crazy on something or are they violent? we also know -- i'm all for criminal justice reform that is same. i'm not for criminal justice reform that takes pity on violent criminals which to me is a completely different thing. i take no pity on someone who's violent. the most shocking thing about this was to learn how you can do

a couple months for kidnapping a 7-year-old girl and stuff like that needs to be taken more seriously. if you're not taking that seriously, and what crime are you taking seriously? i think it's sad and can't believe we are in this situation but joining us to break down the legal aspects, fox news legal analyst greg jarrett. do you think alvin bragg did this to quickly what are your thoughts? >> this is clearly a rush to judgment because unilaterally decided to bring second degree manslaughter charge without first going to a grand jury. likely because he feared grand jurors are like everyday citizens, they are on the subway and would understand perfectly what people face every day not just on the streets of new york

city but fighting subway trains, menacing threats, violent acts, people being beaten, others on the platform being turned to the tracks to their deaths. mayor adams promised to clean it up and hasn't done and alvin bragg is the kind of guy who refuses to bring charges against career criminals and violent predators. he doesn't care about innocent victims of crimes in new york city or terrorized on a daily basis. instead, he cares about defending the criminals which is why he often drops cases entirely or reduces felonies down to misdemeanors so this is a district attorney who cares about prosecutions unless it an ex- marine who had the courage to defend himself and others. >> i got more questions than answers, i think most americans

have questions and answers but the problem we have is probably law enforcement officers or the da also has more questions than answers but we have charges. a grand jury would have more questions than answers involved in this but we have charges. we don't know the specifics. to my understanding we don't have an official cause of death, was there toxicology report about the timing of death? how is it legal to charge someone when they don't have the facts? >> the medical examiner ruled it homicide and on that basis alone which is insufficient, alvin bragg decided to bring secondary manslaughter charge which is reckless conduct resulting in death. the defense here will be and you heard it from the clip you played from the defense attorney, it's going to be self-defense and the question in self-defense cases is, did the defendant reasonably believe his

life and the lives of others he was protecting, were they in imminent risk of serious bodily injury or death? when you invoke self-defense, it shifts the burden of proof to the prosecution to disprove it. much will depend on the other people involved, eyewitnesses, people who were victims of the alleged precedent and if their testimony is credible, that supports self-defense. >> i have one final question, he brought up self-defense and i think it's going to be so important and what the defense will actually be for daniel penny. his legal team raised a million dollars and ron desantis tweeted earlier today, is support for someone like daniel penny and what way do you think this will shape up like the pro law and order good samaritan valiant citizens against growth crime new yorkers calling out for this

to happen with their protests from the get go? will this be mostly political or do we think the law is going to be followed here? americans don't at this time. >> so much of what alvin bragg has done is politically motivated. all you have to do is look at the absurd indictment of donald trump based on an underlying charge the district attorney won't even identify principally because it doesn't exist under law and its representative or symptomatic of other cases bragg has handled for example, last summer the bodega worker, josé alba who dared to defend himself when he was viciously attacked behind the counter. greg rushed to judgment there vowing to liberal political pressure, liberal mom and immediately filed charges against the bodega worker.

in the end he had to drop the charges because videotape clearly demonstrated this was a case of self-defense so if it's alvin bragg, you can bet it's political. >> thank you so much. we live in the upstate and we appreciate your analysis and catch our very own judge jeanine exclusive with daniel penny's attorney 5:00 p.m. monday on the five. coming up, we got more big saturday show. highflying figure, in the midst of crashing his own airplane but not before bailing out midf midflight. >> holy -- >> how that could land him behind bars two decades and you won't believe why he did it. ♪

will

welcome back to this special doe edition of the big saturday show. you can see we are keeping an eye on this in cedar rapids iowa were governor rhonda symptoms of florida is expected to speak and when he takes the podium will cut into that as soon as he starts. in the meantime a totally different story, one you tubers 13 minutes of fame could turn into two decades behind bars. trevor jacobs admitted to jumping out of his airplane when it crashed intentionally into a california mountain. >> holy -- i'm over the mou mountain. >> he just happened to have

cameras everywhere to capture the emergency. he's now facing 20 years in prison for allegedly obstructing investigation into the crash. he claims he planned for the crash to occur and be posted on the internet for? and help make money from a sponsor in the video. so has the addiction to going viral gone too far? some of the details in the story are bananas. the i guess include earlier in the video a promotion for a wallet sponsoring him. okay, a terrific product. oh no, my plane is crashing, watch the video. i guess it works to a certain extent until he allegedly misled because he was shot where the crash happened. he's now facing charges, his pilot license revoked. seems like a no-brainer. what we know it happened, he submitted this. i guess if your business model is to go out and get as many as

possible, one should bring into making profoundly stupid decisions not thinking about a few consequence steps ahead for the get clicks and likes. >> i can't imagine how much money he could make even if he has a sponsor on a youtube video that would account for the cost of a small airplane. you think the airplane he purposely crashed would probably cost more than the book he'll make on youtube or this bullet companies so that right off the bat seems like a giant miscalculation to me but to get caught on top of all of the clicks, i think people have gotten addicted to going viral. i can't imagine this would be the video people would care to watch over and over and get that many views and clicks. it doesn't fascinate me but maybe that's just me. >> i wrote this amazing book and i did, i wrote it and the writing was the easy part

compared to now when i have to do the marketing and liked by my book, or doorpost on instagram? is so embarrassing to do what i'm doing right now but at least what i've not done is a federal crime in an attempt to get more attention. at least i've been shameless, i haven't been a felon, not too bright. >> if you could so 50000 more copies like you to do -- >> that for me, or do because of more people read the book it would be better for america. i am doing it for my country, that's what i'm saying. >> gutfeld joke earlier this week. joey, take it away. >> these people risking their lives for chump change on the internet when kim kardashian taught us a long time ago you could cheaply make a consensual and put it out there and become a billionaire if it's all about attention and why not go the route that's proven?

why would you jump out of a perfectly good airplane to make yourself viral? >> that was not considered as a marketing strategy for me. >> is not expecting a -- tape in your segment. >> as a resident and i reality tv show, i take specific offense to you saying they made their billing dollars and higher off the sex tape alone. grandma put in a lot of work. >> i can't say that, it's not -- >> i don't know if you watched keep up with the kardashian's. >> i agree they put in a lot of work. >> a businesswoman. >> i feel we could probably microphone for the kardashian the hour of ron desantis. >> you call them scandal opera? >> i didn't know the term, apparently there is a term. i feel as fascinating as that is, i'm being told into a deep

will do it on the program in 2020, wnba star didn't want the national income played only four games solidarity she said with black lives matter tragically spending ten months behind bars and russia, we all criminal that, she's changing her tune on the star-spangled banner sporting events. here's what she said, i'm telling you right after this break. ♪ are

will

welcome back to the big saturday show. we are waiting for florida governor ron desantis, he's expected to speak in cedar rapids iowa and we will bring that live as soon and as it starts but first, wnba star brittney griner appears to be changing her tune about the national anthem after spending

nearly ten months in russian prison. she said this after her first came back. >> when you go for olympics and the anthem is going, it's different. >> do you find this surprising? >> i will handle this with as much grace as possible. i was intricately involved with the kaepernick thing and when side of me, i text him when it first started because i was told deciding to yield to have postures of those sitting down, he's trying to show reverence for one thing while standing up for the other and i was on board with that in the sense of at least he was talking to us and went on and did his own thing and all that so if you like this is an old one not too important

to me because it's simple, the flag and anthem means something to me because i hear and see them draped overcompensate and don't expect it to mean something to everyone but few felt passionate enough to know for the emblem before thing now you have the responsibility if you've seen enlightenment, if you've seen the difference and understand better, you don't get to be casual. if you were convicted before, be convicted now. i'm so happy she's back and thank god she didn't have to be there an extra hour, wish she'd never been there to begin with but if that's how you feel, don't be casual about it. have conviction like you did before because people dying in this country going to your rescue and doing all they can to get you home, that's who we are and what those things stand for. i appreciate the comments and take her to be honest and genuine but you have a new cost and hope you take it up and do it right. >> i imagine that would be a transformative experience probably in many different ways. >> i'm happy to see this because i was hard on him brittney griner when this was going down,

i didn't have a lot of sympathy for her, i didn't agree with the swap made to bring her home in place of paul welland, is it thought it was a political move for biden to put a feather in his cap but i'm happy to see this, i have ... recognizing all his country and anthem, i'm happy she's great. it does go a long way so senility goes a long way. if she hadn't done that, i think you have a lot of people who wouldn't forgive her and a lot of people were upset with her i hope there's more to come i hope she sings the star-spangled banner, thank you, let's kick it off from here. >> the thing is, is not her fault how we got her back. that's a decision made in washington d.c. by the president so if you are her or her family, you're desperate for her to come home from a russian prison. the concern was, it was a bad incentive, the wrong person -- all sorts of critiques about it.

they grabbed a "wall street journal" reporter because the incentive, he incentivized rather than taking americans, you can get a king's ransom and return if you get some released but that's not on her. what is on her is recognizing perhaps, the ruthlessness with which she in my opinion, disrespected the country in 2020. she said she didn't push a check for folks like you, joey, it seemed disrespectful, don't even play the anthem. she wasn't going to kneel or sit, she didn't want the anthem played at all and now she's think it's different to hear that song in your standing there before amber, i bet it does. a lot of time in a horrible place and now you're back in the greatest country in the history of the world hearing that song that means a lot. i know you said it means a lot to you but you know a lot to everyone in this country and fresh eyes and ears it does to her as well and if she sticks with this, i hope she does, it's a positive development. >> maybe she could get a show on fox news.

[laughter] is that where this is headed? obviously she didn't deserve to be there, that's -- the way it happened was awful but i like to see when people can grow through experiences and that's nice to see. coming up on the big saturday show, all eyes have been on the migrants urgent the southern border after title 42 expired but other states in minority communities are now dealing with the crisis. >> politically having 500 people in our community would completely wipe out any interest we have. >> are some people on the left starting to see what republicans have been warning about for years? we will discuss that next. ♪ ]

part of the reason i know that is because i run into people in florida, naples, fort myers, some of you in they will tell me if they are from illinois, you can sense the bitterness of how illinois governed. they are happy to be in florida but frustrated. same with during the people fleeing minnesota and michigan

lockdowns during covid but what i run into islands in southwest florida, they are happy with florida but also happy with what's going on in iowa because i think between your legislature, your governor, you got one of the best republican teams in the entire country with what they've been able to accomplish. [applause] so i pointed this out for a long time and when i was here in march someone had written something about at all that i was doing, they are the floor of the midwest and i started watching more of what they did during this legislative session, they've done an awful lot maybe it's just that florida is the iowa of the southeast, i don't know. [cheering and applauding] i think florida and iowa and what we've been able to

accomplish should give people around this country a little bit of hope because you see things going wrong, we can look at the disaster at the southern border. we can seek government induced inflation is harmed tens of millions of people the last couple of years. we can see biden floundering around doing whatever he does on a daily basis can see and be frustrated with losses that republicans suffered at the ballot box these last many years so there's a lot of people that are pessimistic and i understand that but i think what i will in florida shows is it can be done. if you somebody willing to lead, if you're willing to stand for our shared principles and put those into effect and deliver results for people, the people out there will walk over hot coals barefoot to do that. they want to know he will stand up for them and they want to see you deliver results for them and

iowa and florida are the same in the sense that it's not like we always voted republican. obama won both florida and iowa twice when he was running for president. when i got elected governor in 2018, it was by 32000 votes. it wasn't anything out of the ordinary, most of the races from the president to the governor for the previous ten years or one point basis and florida kind of had a delicate political balance. a lot of people told me when i got in, it evenly divided, don't rock the boat because you may end up on the other side if there's changes and i understood that advice but i rejected that advice. i'm just not going to sit there like a potted plant, i'm going to go on offense and that's what we get and we worked really hard. part of the reason for been able to do well in florida is i don't

post to tell me what to do. my view is a leader doesn't put their finger in the wind and try to see which way the wind is blowing, the leader should have fortitude to chart a vision to execute division and deliver results. guess what happens -- the polls will change in your direction anyway so that was our philosophy going in and we were able to accomplish a lot so fast forward four years later, we didn't when christ 30,000 euros, we one by 1.5 million votes in the state of florida. the biggest landslide in republican party history in our state. [applause] we did it not just by getting republicans. as much as i wish a majority of this country were republicans, not the case so you want to win of course but you got to win independence, some democrats so we were able to do in florida, we one independent voters 18%. 60% of the hispanic vote in the state of florida. we understand, we do well in

rural areas in florida, i got 90 +% in these rural areas, i used to think philadelphia affected 90%, that's got to be fraud. how do you get 90%? i was getting 90% and we have secure elections in florida so we do great in rural, we did good -- sometimes not as good in suburbs although we did well in my election but one thing we showed we could do, we won big in urban areas. our biggest county miami-dade 2.8 million people, 70% his hispanic, hilly clinton one that in 2016 by 30%. we were able to not only win the county, we won the county by double digits taking this message to the heart of urban florida. [applause] politics is a team sport, not just about you running. you got to work to get a team elected. i'm happy to say we were able to do that, florida has super

majorities in our florida legislature for the biggest majorities we've ever had in the states history. we also help elect 29 conservative school board members school districts throughout the state of florida, very important. [applause] for the first time since the civil war era, there's not one single solitary democrat elected to statewide office in the sunshine state. that's what you call winning. [applause] none of those results would have been possible had it not been for us when the world lost its mind during covid when common sense became an uncommon virtue, our state of florida stood as a refuge of sanity, a citadel of freedom for people not just in our state around these united states and even around the wo world, we refuse to let our

state descend into some type of fauci dystopia where people's livelihoods were ruined and freedoms curtailed. no, we chose freedom and we are better off for having done that. [applause] it is important when i was making these decisions when your governor was making decisions, she and i for the only ones in the country saying kids need to be in school, you shouldn't lock kids out of school, she took black, i took flak from all over, the corporate press, the left, their bureaucracy, even some republicans were attacking me and i remember people telling me, supporters like man, you got to do something different because you're getting filleted if you're not going to be in this world politically if you keep on that course but the leader's job is to put the interest of the people he represents before his own and i

cared more about protecting the jobs of floridians than protecting my own. i didn't know what would happen politically but you've got to do the right thing. [applause] we are having to do that because we were going against the grain of what they were saying about lockdowns, masks and all the different things, schools. we can sit here today and say elites were wrong about almost everything regarding covid. they were wrong about lockdowns, wrong about force masking. they were wrong about school closures, wrong to deny the existence of natural immunity. they were wrong to say you are a conspiracy theorist if you said covid started in the will hand lab so we are now in a situation where some people are trying to rewrite history, trying to act like they didn't really support this that and i can tell you, fauci is him was wrong,

destructive and we can never let anything like that happen to this country again. [applause] i'm glad to be and i will because you have a common sense with how humans manage a budget. we do in florida, our budget even though we have 3 million more people than new york state, our budget is half the size of new york state budget. we have better roads, better services, better infrastructure, higher performing education, where is this money going that they are taxing people with? i can tell you they are causing more people to move to my state which by the way, we don't have

a state income tax in florida. you should should try it sometime, it works. i know your governor is trying to get there and maybe she will. [applause] but the difference between fiscally conservative management and what's been going on in washington between fed printing trillions in terms of dollars the last few years, biden printing and spending, borrowing and spending trillions of dollars, they induce the worst inflation we've had in 40 years. that's an invisible tax on every single american family my seniors on fixed incomes, parents with children, it's made life more difficult for people. it's harder to be enjoying a middle-class lifestyle as a result of biden's policies and he wants to double down on it and make your energy more expensive. he wants to make all of these different things more difficult

for you so we clearly see the difference between good management and bad management. i can tell you the states that have biden policies all those people are moving to my state of florida to get away from those policies and i know some of you have places and for, you run into the people who leave new york to new jersey and leave from illinois. i have to walk watch what goes on because it affects my states. when this guy gets elected mayor of chicago, left of the left, naples real estate is going up again because people are fleeing. that's just what happens. it's crazy. it's also -- one of the reasons this is happening, they've turned their back on law and order in places like chicago. you don't defund belize, you support the police. we don't allow rioting and looting and mob violence, you hold those people accountable. [laughter] you don't eliminate cash bail and turn them back loose so they can commit more crimes, you don't do jailbreak and let

people get out of prison early who are dangerous. for heavens sakes, you don't elect prosecutors, usually funded by people like george soros, he don't elect prosecutors to get into office and say they are not going to enforce laws they disagree with and they are going to put the criminals interest ahead of the victims interest. i can tell you this, in florida we had a prosecutor funded by soros, he said there were laws he would decline to enforce, our legislature enacted. i removed him from his post. he is gone. [applause] [cheering and applauding] we need accountability in this country. we also need accountability for what's going on at our southern border. i can tell you someone said what would you do? i would shut the border down immediately. you cannot have hundreds of thousands of people lined up at the border coming in illegally.

how much fentanyl has the mexican cartels brought across the border since biden's been president? we have tens of thousands of people dying because of fentanyl overdose, not just in border communities and every community in this country and i can tell you because i consult mothers in the state of florida who have lost some of their kids to fentanyl overdose. you have criminal aliens pouring in and they are committing crimes in the united states and even people on our own government terrorist watchlist coming in into our country. i think we need strong immigration policies. we are not citizens of the world, we are american citizens. that means something. our sovereignty should mean something. in florida we leaned in on

illegal immigration. we sued biden and won against his catch and release policies at the southern border. we are also involved in maritime interdictions of drugs. the coast guard starts most them, but not all of them. thank you so much for watching. "one nation" starts now. brian: welcome to "one nation." what was supposed to be a huge day in iowa. former president donald trump. and gol governor ron desantis ws forced to cancel, outdoor event canceled, bad weather. ron desantis goes indoors.
