j. d. vance and as an aside let me say how moving it was as we gathered in the winter, leader thune was there and her chiefs of staff and we're standing there talking to j. d., vice president, the present lockton greeted us and he said let's go take a beating into the oval office. they are still unpacking boxes. the new team is moving in and all the picture frames are empty and all of that but thankfully because we do the transition of power so well and america, the oval office is all set up and it looked fantastic. as we were walking down the hall j. d. mentioned in passing i've never step foot in the oval office before. remarkable. i said brother, , i've got to fm this. i just posted on social media a while ago, the video of that, and, and, and it was really it was really historic moment, right? the president walks of sin and the new vice president walks in and he stands or an look at the grantor of the place. only in america can a young man from humble circumstances from appalachia prize to be

j. d., there's someone sitting next to j. d. vancell cap on and i thought i couldn't tell who it was. i thought is at that wrapper that likes president trump? who is a? and as the president is giving a speech at butler, paying his respects to chief corey who was martyred that day, this chant starts behind me, and our people as far as of the eye can see. i wass there for hours early. it was to the horizon how many people in red my cats, and this chant makes it up to us as the president is still speaking. you can you young men say elon, elon, elon. >> the guy and a ball cap terms right in front me and it's elon musk. now why is that important? it's super important because it goes back to current. elon musk was loved by the left to mr. tesla cars, mr. going into space. but he is fearless, too. what did heoe do 20 minutes lat? they got up on that stage, jumped around like a high school kid all excited, and then he said what kind of president do you want? a guy who can't climb upstairs or guy who gets shot in the head blood covered on his

j. d vance. just phase of the owner of amazon. he's also the owner of the washington post, and very controversially, just the washington post is the paper of record in the city. very controversial. it came out that he stops his auditorium board from endorsing comma la harris for president. so what we've seen since the election is a steady stream of the americas, most powerful, they're wealthy, is going down tomorrow. lago tried to curry favor with this us president obviously was the president said he was going to cut taxes last year because taxes, it was for the corporations and the richest americans as we were talking about those kinds of numbers, the kinds of money that amazon or be those that the sucker, birch and mosse caps, that's hundreds of millions of dollars potentially benefiting them if they are able to, to influence service. i think it's for the interesting. 9 donald trump even said last time everyone's thought be now they all, would it be friends with me? so very unusual to see that kind of check. i think what did the

j. d. vance of the state of ohio receive 3 votes for vice president, the so that we've got representatives from every states they are about to go through all the states in the us, in alphabetical order. announcing the, the records of electron votes from each and every states can be how kit is watching events for us in washington d. c. so give me just give us an idea of the significance of this day and focus. we're a little bit of a sequence of events that are at the capital. yeah, that's right. uh you. i think we've got amy clubs sure. who is uh, one of the senators who is the presiding over this uh, what we have is, uh essentially what is very ceremonial and slightly routine. uh, procedural, the certification process that is until 4 years ago, when all of that changed on january 6th, 2021. and now there is heightened interest on the anniversary 4 years later. not only because of the violence that occurred 4 years ago when the supporters of donald trump tried to overturn the results of the 2020 us election. but also because in this case, what is also significant is the fact that cala harri

j. d vance is going to be the con. do it to the base. okay. because uh, yeah we've, we already had the visa debacle and that's going to return everyone. colleen being part of a, one time law enforcement here. i was kind of struck about the anger issues that trump has about what was done to him. and of course they're saying that you know, he wants revenge and all that to date trumps. and that's not really his style. but i don't know if you saw his split 2nd presentation after the inauguration of texas . governor abbot was there and he went on and wandered and meandered. it was really quite all. i didn't even kind of reminded me a bite and a little bit here. but he worries me that he really wants vengeance. i want justice . i want justice. i want things to be fixed. okay. but i didn't get that impression from that speech. yeah, he needed to frame this as a call for account ability. yep. justice. as opposed to looking like he's going after enemies and even you know, cache patel who is ostensibly the new f b i, director if he makes it through. he

j. d vance. rick right now. um. okay, fine. but the thing is i'm reading particularly like from bloomberg and quote, ukraine seeks a sustainable piece. well, it's what she expects the same stressing that temporary resolutions would not serve us. so ukrainian interest, this is a theme that we keep going over and over and over to russia, has interest to rush is involved in this here. but we constantly see plans being made really with the explosion of russia. it's, that's not going to work. go ahead and salt lake city, you know, you're absolutely right. if you're, when uh, you know, it's difficult when a power is, there's no countries winning a war there and it wants to get this the term. so in this case, russia has been one even more of the last 2 or 3 years. i think gas uh no longer debatable. and you know, as a result, you prayed in the us, i have to accept a piece piece agreement terms that are minimally acceptable to the russian federation. and so that, that's really the key that's been missing all this talk about nato member

j. d. vance is going to be the conduit to the base. okay. because uh, yeah, we bought, we already had the visa debacle, and that's going to return everyone. colleen being part of a, one time law enforcement here. i was kind of struck about the anger issues that trump has about what was done to him. and of course they're saying that you know, he wants revenge and all that to data from. so that's not really his style. but i don't know if you saw his 2nd presentation after the inauguration of texas. governor abbot was there and he went on and wandered and meandered. it was really quite all i didn't even kind of reminded me a bite and a little bit here. but he worries me that he really wants vengeance. i want justice . i want justice. i want things to be fixed. okay. but i didn't get that impression from that speech to yeah, he needed to frame this as a call for accountability. yep. justice. as opposed to looking like he's going after enemies and even, you know, cache would tell who was ostensibly the new f b i, director if he makes it through,

j. d. vance. and donald trump spoke on this, extensively about the problems at this cause. but what they didn't do was talk about what caused those haitians to be so desperate to leave their own country to come to the united states and take those manufacturing jobs. right. so they used to be, we would out source those jobs to places like katie. now we're just in sourcing the labor of the under come under, cut our own workforce in the united states. i talked about it, i did videos and segments on what j, the vance will never tell you that is that those. i said, you know, 7, they had 7000000 people of less than as well in the last couple of years. and most of those people came to the united states desperate economically. and why? because of the sanctions that the united states economic kid man has imposed on venezuela and the whole point is to create pain in the populace. so they will have enough economic pain that they'll come together and then that through billions of dollars of c, i a money they will fall meant the revolution over throw the leader of that is way low. so th
