(phone call text on screen) that particular morning, i went into my son's bedroom and we were cuddling. and he said it looked like i was having some sort of a seizure. he called 911. they didn't think i

michael whatley at my side because maybe we wouldn't be standing here as president, him and laura, laura trump and he were incredible head of the republican party. and he comes from a place called north carolina, i said, michael, fix it. good luck. we'll supply what you need. you know that. okay, thank you. thank you all very much. thank you very much. >> what kind of a role will mr. whatley have? >> the heartbreaking stories. and there have been so many local groups that stepped up to assist these families. >> president trump: that's you know of the things you hear. >> any talk on having money -- instead of going to fema and going through the bureaucracy, to go to them? >> president trump: that's what i want to do. we want to bring it locally so that the state takes care of its problem and they can bring it down to a local level like samaritan's purse and franklin, because that's -- you know, one of the better examples. but you had numbers of people that did a great job. you have groups that did a great job and organizations. the one that didn't do a good job was the government. they did a ba

laura: got to go home. mr. speaker, thank you very much. ahead, trumprops a bomb on dei and the military. ♪ is [laughter] you go to sandals to get really, really close... to the caribbean. we should do this every morning. ♪ >> laura: little wishful thinking dei isn't doa yet because al sharpton on scene [inaudible] >> we're going to do this dealt with. and donald trump be able to cancel a commitment they made is an outright affront to the black community, brown community, lgbtq, gay community. that is why we will stand those that stand with us. costco immediately stepped up and said that they would not back off dei. we are calling a buy in. >> laura: sharpton and a few that still follow him. they are back to their old shake down. demanding that companies embrace their racial vision or else. >> not stand with us. let donald trump stop those from boycotting them. we will not [inaudible] >> laura: but what is there to boycott here? the end of racial discrimination and hiring is exactly what ending dei does. people of all races voted against the dei divisiv

is that elon musk or what about laura trump? if the daughter in law becomes an element of a u.s. senate campaign, or are there family members that become hugely important? because what we have seen this time is, as donald trump 2.0 has put together their transition, he's expanded the team, a post-trump gop as a still trump gop and maga with a different voice. and there's going to be a lot of egos and a lot of identity amongst republicans to seek to inherit that mantle. does that go to an extended family member, or does that go to someone like, say, secretary of state designate marco rubio? does it go to someone like ted cruz? there will be a lot of people in and out of politics, mind you, that will be part of this. and that's to kind of bring it back to this notion that what donald trump has done in these last ten years is create political theater of one the political theater of donald trump, and that's allowed him to dominate american politics, much to the chagrin of democrats. and at the same time, position the republican party moving forward for a different kind of focus. >> ca

trump. i i'm not sure what joe biden is doing but he needs to go back to the basement and eat ice. >> laura:d out also the media won't give up trying to prop up biden, despite everything we learned about him in his decline. to the media over at cnn, they said this. >> he patted himself on the back quite rightly for alliances he built, rebuilt, and european officials will tell you he brought in stability that they craved after the material nature of the last trump administration. >> laura: so he deserves a big pat on the back. >> let's go ahead and point out the fact when he was vice president, it was russia who invaded ukraine. it was his administration who refused to leave and president trump had to slow down russia. as soon as he got back into office, invaded further into europe. he is not bringing stability. as far as cnn and media propping him up ernie's routine, they need to call it the way it is. biden inflation has absolutely crippled the american people and tens of millions have come across a border increasing sex trafficking of children, angel families. we had the botched withdrawal

congress people are working hard on that along with michael whatley and laura trump wants to be involvedael and laura have been unbelievable. they have been unbelievable. [applause] unbelievable. you know why i picked michael? because in the 2016 election, we did so well in then in 2020 we did great in north carolina. what is going on? with north carolina it went here. six hundred one lawyers working for them and they didn't play games in north carolina. michael whatley has done an unbelievable job and he worked with laura so well. she comes from that state. they have done an incredible job so thank you. incredible. we will give you plenty of money to get the job done. he could do anything. he's a talented person. there's nothing more important because we have to win in two and four years. thank you, michael. incredible. [applause] really amazing. i wanted to save that for leadership because i say it all the time but leadership knows what i'm talking about and it's incredible. the two of you as a team, unbelievable. our administration will also be working to implement the make it in amer

and president trump did a wonderful job by picking him to be the next secretary of defense. >> laura: senator cotton, i think americans who caught little snippets of this today were shocked, frankly, to find out that we are doing a lot of this woke stuff in the military. people don't cover it like we do and follows ever iteration of a change in policy in the military but really it has hurt in many ways our military readiness and hurt our recruiting which i think he talked about today. >> yeah, laura, unfortunately political correctness run amok and social engineering has harmed our military, therefore, harmed our national security. as you said it's probably declined recruiting numbers to the point that we are at a recruiting crisis and it's harmed readiness. look, our troops don't deserve the pronouns on their i.d. tags. they don't need to do privilege walks. they don't have to go through repeated training sessions about diversity, equity and inclusion. hard realistic training to help them to prepare them to defend this nation at war time. the kind of training that pete hegseth has co

here now, former rnc co-chair laura trump. laura, great to have you. borders, economy, energy, peace through strength. how about they just focus on the basics. >> the basics are what won this election for donald trump. but look as it relates to joe biden and what the democrats are up to right now, i would basically ask joe biden to please go back to doing what we know he's probably good at doing, because he's done it for four years. >> absolutely nothing. if they can just leave this alone, that would be great. what they're doing right now is the same thing we've seen from the democrats. time after time and year after year. they're great at lying and great at gaslighting. they've lied about just about everything about biden's mental acuity. they lied about kamala harris having all of this momentum behind her. they lied about inflation. they've lied about any and everything as it relates to donald trump. and they lied when they said they wanted a smooth and peaceful transition. that was a lie. because what they're doing, throwing everything in donald trum

he worked with laura trump to take us through to a tremendous victory.ections ever. they say in 129 years, whatever that may mean. but whatever it is, it's it was a great election we had and we won your state all three times. we won your state and all three primaries we won yesterday. so we won it six times, i guess. mr. congressman. yeah. and it's a great place. and i wanted to come here and before i went anywhere frankly. and the campaign, i promised that i'd come back to western north carolina to help the people of the state. and today, here i am to deliver on that promise. and we have a lot of things in mind. and we're getting the corps of the army, corps of engineer engineers. all set. you need your riverbanks fixed. you need a lot of roads fixed. and we're going to get it done in rapid time. and i've asked siouxsie wiles and all of my people to start calling up and get the corps ready, and they're going to get ready to go. i don't know what it is. i don't know what took so long for the other administration, but remember, i wasn't here for the first
