From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Killmead. Hi, everyone. Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Killmee Show. I'm so glad you're here and been with us all week long.

I'm a little groggy from going to the Knicks game last night and getting out at 11, but I stayed in Manhattan. Crazy situation. And it was a big win for the Knicks to force a game six. Harold Ford Jr. was also at the game.

He was also on special report with me last night. He's going to be with us. Dean Kane, actor-producer, deep thinker from Princeton, will be with us. And standing up for standing by right now is great friend of the show, RNC chair, now solo, Michael Watley. Michael, welcome back.

It's good to be on with you, sir. Michael, so today Elon Musk is coming to back to the White House, kind of a formal sendoff for the President. Why do you think it matters so much to the President that if his interim stay is ending, it end on the right note?

Well, look, I think you have to understand why it's an interim stay. The fact is that special government employees are only allowed to be on duty for 130 days. Elon understands that the Doge mission is going to have to continue, and he definitely wants to continue to support the president and the agenda that we're moving forward with. We owe him a huge debt of thanks for coming in and setting up the Doge program. I don't think anybody could have anticipated that they would find what they have found.

But when we talk about eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse, this is by far the most effective way that we could ever conceive of to try and identify it and get that waste out of our system. I mean, you set up systems, they set up a way to test grants, they set up a way for human resources to track things.

Social Security is now computerized. The efficiency matters, and a lot of that stuff will be quantifiable down the road. Amongst his critics, Senator Mark. Mark Kelly, he's been ridiculous. Cut 15.

Well, it was incredibly short, and that's a good thing. He did a lot of damage. I had veterans in my office that had previously received excellent performance reports that were fired for poor performance with an email from Elon Musk. And in a couple cases, these folks are telling me how their lives have been ruined for no reason.

So, Elon did incredible damage. It's still lasting today. We've got seniors that. Having a hard time getting through to a Social Security office because of the damage Elon did.

So it's good that he's gone. Uh your thoughts about his allegations. Only somebody on the Democratic side of the aisle could say that we do not want to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse. I think right now the Democratic Party is fighting harder for waste, fraud, and abuse than they are their own constituents. You look, the fact is, the federal government was bloated.

The federal government was not responsive. And anybody who is going to go out there and argue that what we uncovered at USAID, what we uncovered at the Department of Education, what we uncovered with EPA moving $20 billion out of EPA into a private bank account in the weeks before President Trump took office, giving $2 billion to Stacey Abrams. You know, this is not okay. And for the Democrats right now to try and focus their ire on Elon Musk and talk about having somebody who was not elected running the government is absolutely the height of hypocrisy, given what we're seeing every single day about Joe Biden and the fact that. That his Autopen Brigade was running the government while he was completely checked out.

So, Michael, there's a couple of things going on right now. None of it has to do with your party, but I'm sure it's impossible to take your eyes off of since the books have been written about how detached. Joe Biden was from his own Presidency. People were wondering about the authenticity and the terrible decisions he made if he was even making these decisions. And almost every Democrat's been asked, why did you keep your mouth shut?

Here is Democratic Congressman Roe Cona, cut thirty eight. I do think what the mistake was was that we should have pushed back more against the old guard and insisted on new voices. And now you're seeing that in the Democratic Party. You're seeing a lot of new voices there. You're seeing a demand for the old guard to step aside.

And he said, I regret backing Joe Biden. How do you game plan against that when you have so many different voices within a party? And we're not. And then you have someone like Rahm Emmanuel said, I'm going to run in the moderate. And then you have James Carville said, we got to stop with the pronouns.

Some of this sounds like. What you and President Trump have said.

Some of it sounds like oligarchs and Ridiculous, I don't like rich people. And then you have Rocana saying that some Democrats are too old. How do you strategize against that? They're all over the place.

Well, look, the Democratic Party is leaderless and rudderless. The only thing that we're really seeing in terms of potential leaders is Kamala Harris saying, Oh, if only I had been on the ticket for a little bit longer. Tim Waltz is out there saying, Oh, if only we had been a little bit more aggressive in fighting for our agenda. The fact is, they're all doubling down on stupid. The agenda that they ran on, open borders, inflationary spending in a weak America, is not what the American people wanted in 24.

It's not what they want today here, and they're not going to want in 2026. The American people want a strong economy. They want a strong southern border. They want a strong America. That's what the Republicans are giving them.

For Republicans to win in the midterms, we're going to have to continue to understand the issues that voters care about and put solutions on the table. That's exactly what we are doing. We're lining up right now. We're recruiting our candidates and making sure that we're going to have great candidates who are going to run races all across the country who are going to continue to fight. for the America First Agenda that President Trump and Congressional Republicans and Democrat Senate Republicans and Congressional Republicans ran on.

No doubt about it. The other thing is, the president has a war in education. I appreciate the fact that the Secretary of Education's at my high school. pushing back against those who want to take the name Chiefs out of their nickname. You might not think it's a big deal.

It's millions of dollars of rebranding that dates back to nineteen fifty eight. And there's Indian groups that are stepping up saying we don't want Chiefs taken out of Kansas City or small schools like Maspequa. And I want you to hear some more pushback from a place like Harvard when the president takes them on for their lack of conservative thought, the anti-Semitism that's raging. Listen to how Alan Garber was received, taking a dig at Trump, Cut 19. Members of the class of 2025.

From down the street, across the country And around the world. Around the world, Just as it should be. I see you this morning. And he's referring to the fact that the President said, I'd like to know who these international students are. I like to ban anyone coming in until we get to the bottom of that, let alone what Marco Rubio of State Department said about the Chinese.

We're going to hold on the Chinese immigrants coming here because we don't know what they're up to. What are your thoughts about this issue as an RNC chair? The American taxpayers should not be subsidizing anti-American, anti-Semitic behavior at Harvard or Columbia or any other university anywhere in the country. What we need to do in our higher education institutions is teach people how to think, not have indoctrination camps that go down to high schools, it goes down to elementary schools. But we need in America right now to know that the students that are coming in from around the world are going to be people that are going to help America grow.

They're not going to take our secrets and go back to their countries. You know, when we see 30% plus of the students at Harvard are international in itself, that's probably not a problem, but we want to know who those people are. And it's not surprising that you'll see a reaction like that from a crowd that's overwhelmingly foreign is going to appreciate the president cheering them on. Michael, how important is the Big Beautiful bill to making sure you guys keep the House and Senate?

Well, it's absolutely critical, but I'm not looking at it from a political perspective. I'm looking at it as an American perspective. Right now, 75, 80 percent of the American people support this bill. 80 percent of the American people want to see the Trump tax cuts extended. They want to see no tax on tips, no tax on overtime.

This is what the bill is bringing to the table. The fact that the Democrats, every single one of them in the House, voted against this bill that gets 80 percent support is stunning to me. The fact that every single Democrat in the Senate has said that they're going to vote against this bill is absolutely irresponsible. We need to get our economy back on track. We need to make sure that we're going to have more jobs that are coming to America, that they're going to be higher paying, that we're going to have lower inflation.

Making sure that we extend these Trump tax credits is a critical piece of. I'm against the break, but real quick, have you tried to recruit Senator Fetterman to the Republican Party? Look, I got to tell you, right now, he is about the only voice of common sense in that entire party. And the Democratic Party, again, is going to continue to be on the wrong side of every one of these eighty twenty issues because they reflexively oppose everything that President Trump supports. Is that yes?

You did call him? Are you calling him? Tell him to come over? I got to tell you, it is amazing to me that you have one lone voice in the wilderness on the Democratic side of the aisle who's talking about being rational at this point. I think it's a yes, but we'll see.

Michael Watley, thanks so much. Always great to talk to you. Yeah, thank you, Brian. Take care. Have a great weekend.

Coming next, one of the favorite Democrats in the country, Harold Ford Jr., who I think should run for president, then Dean Kane. Newsmakers and newsbreakers. Here at first on the Brian Killmeat Show. Listen to the all-new Brett Baer podcast, featuring common ground, in-depth talks with lawmakers from opposite sides of the aisle, along with all your Brett Baer favorites like his all-star panel and much more. Available now at FoxNewsPodcasts.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it. You're with Brian Kilmead. The initial spin was, oh, our focus group show that people hate Trump. And yeah, you know, this wasn't a great debate for us, but basically it was a wash. And people really didn't like Trump's answer on January 6th and blah, blah, blah.

What they did not tell people as they were telling them this spin strategy about this focus group is that this focus group was stacked with people who did not like Donald Trump. These were, for the most part, Biden voters that he was losing because of his age and because of inflation.

So that is a little bit more revelations from Jake Tapper talking about his Biden book, which has 200 sources saying that Biden essentially wasn't in charge for four years. Harold Ford Jr. has not been running from this story over the last four years. He's, of course, co-host of the Five, great friend of ours. Harold, welcome back.

Your thoughts about this whole book tour and what's it doing to the Democratic Party?

So, first off, good morning. Thanks for having me. Thanks for watching. We were just at the Nick game last night. What a night.

Yeah. Go next. Um so a couple of things. I I think that the story doesn't get any better for the Bidens. It's not getting any better for the senior people around the President.

I think the questions being raised are ones that deserve answers. There's a separate question which we've talked about in the five, and you guys have talked about also here and on Fox and Friends. which is a little bit of the culpability of some in in some of traditional media. I I think or legacy media, I think that that Jake, whom I I don't know well, but I know, it it I don't understand how He and uh Alex, how they They didn't you know, how they discovered all of this from November to to like May. And written a book, and they're going to probably profit handsomely because they put a lot of work into it.

And it seems like it was ready in a month. But right, I just don't understand how you do that without having. Um somehow another was either negligent or failed on your job before. But your question is a different one. We now see hearings being called for by members of the Senate and the House.

I don't know where they will go. I'm not one that likes to look back. I think what happened was that the country was the final arbiter. And it's like, I didn't think that President Trump should have been impeached. Either.

I just, I think these are extraordinary means and measures you use.

Now, this here is not an impeachment, but the political exercise is a good one for Republicans because it just reminds the American public that you did the right thing by not electing Kamala Harris. And it also reminds them that there's some still continued disarray in the party.

So I hope whatever they want to uncover, I hope they do it quickly. And I hope we get them back to trying to pass things that make the country stronger. Rahm Emanuel says, I'm going to run for the middle. It was crazy with the pronouns. I literally like Carve.

I'm just going to do it. I'm not going to give you the whole quote and the soundbite. He wants to run for the middle. Do you think from the Democrats that you know? That there's enough people around him, excuse me, in the Democratic Party that would support somebody and get through a primary process as a so-called moderate if he says a liberal moderate.

Well, if we don't find our way back to the middle, we'll find our Continue to find ourselves on the outside when it comes to executive power. One of the reasons that President Trump continues to enjoy support, even though there are questions that have been asked of everything from his approach to Ukraine and Russia to his approach to tariffs, the approach to government efficiency, is because ordinarily when one party leader comes down in numbers, the natural correlation is for the other party to go up. Democrats just keep sinking because we're not taken seriously on issues that people think are common sense issues.

So you have to come back to the middle. The person in my life that brought us back to the middle, that really reinvented the party in the most material way, was Bill Clinton. I was 22 years old in 1992, and he's been the most formidable, outside of my dad, the most formidable figure politically in my life. We are one of those influencers. William Obama?

Oh yeah, because remember in 92 Democrats had not had the White House since Holborn's play. Right, since Carter. And Carter's, Jimmy Carter, bless his soul, was a great man. But the way that race went for a while didn't look like Democrats could convince the country that we could be trusted on defense, could be trusted to balance the budget or be trusted not to spend crazily. The last time the budget was balanced in the country was under Bill Clinton.

I happened to be in Congress and had a chance to vote for it.

So we're at one of those moments. Bill Clinton, it took him, it was wibbly-wobbly for him to get back into it. He lost Iowa, lost New Hampshire. It wasn't until Super Tuesday that he finally got a win in the primary. And who gave it to him?

The most consistent and reliable voters in the Democratic Party. It was black voters who said, wait a sec, we can't go down this leftward path anymore. And I think this is, it'll be one of these moments this year. I hope so too for the country because it's scared. The way left the oligarch tour is a scary situation.

Much like if I thought Steve Bannon was a legitimate candidate next time, I think he's terrible for the country, even though he's extremely bright. I think your future fight is this. The Villa Garosa. Kamala Harrison Besheira, a Democrat, called them out for being complicit in keeping quiet on Joe Biden's decline. And that's a Democratic fight.

They want to be, he wants to, it looks like Villa Garrosa wants to be governor. He was mayor.

So they're fighting with each other. It reminds me of the Iraq War. Democrats were vilified for going along with voting for Iraq. Obama comes out and goes, I didn't vote for it. I was state senator at the time.

And that helped him get the nomination. Do you think that's the future fight? What did you know, and how were you attached to Biden? I think this will certainly be one of the conversations, or a big part of the conversation. I think for Democrats, in addition, we've got to get common sense right on some of these cultural issues.

We've got to get common sense right on some of the basic family and community issues across the country, including law and order. I think that's where the country wants to see us come back. There's no come back to and be right on. There's no doubt the Biden thing is just another letter right now. It's a scholar letter now.

No doubt about it. So if you were not there and enabling it, then it's certainly going to like, I know Antonio and I know a former vice president, and I like Antonio. This will be one of those back and forths that will be definitional and foundationally definitional for the party over the next two years. Do you see a role for you going back into politics?

Well, I think if the Kill Meet Show continues to have me on and allow my voice to be heard, I hope that. You mean we might lose you another one to the lighthouse? You're just wiping that off? There's no way you're going to run again? I would never wipe it off.

Look, I grew up in politics. I grew up in a family that loves public policy, so it's still in my blood. And I'm thankful that Fox News gives me a chance to talk about it and be a part of the conversation and keeps me relevant because we are number one. Number one on every four. I hate to tell you, if you ran for office, I think you get the majority of the Fox vote, Fox employee vote.

Well, look at that.

So I'm going to hold you to you'd be the campaign manager, you cannot rule it out. I wouldn't, if Trump doesn't call you first, who knows? Lastly, just real quick. I think that a lot of people think that the worst thing that could happen to Democrats is to take the House because they'll focus on going after Trump. And the best thing for them would be to keep losing the House so they could focus on 28.

Your thoughts? If we don't adopt what you shared earlier, a middle-of-the-road, common sense, identify with everyday Americans platform versus we're going to come after Trump, we're going to impeach Trump, that train's left the station. The country wants leadership that responds to their needs and helps them achieve their aspirations. We do that. Yeah, I like it.

But if not, you may be right. Watch out for it everywhere. He'll be back in a moment. Dean Kane is next. Go next.

Radio that makes you think. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. We hope makes you think. Dean Kane joins us now, actor-producer. You're watching him on the stream.

If stream, if you can, Fox Nation. You also get us on YouTube, and I'm sure he's going to make the cut for the podcast. Dean is excited, not only because he sees me again, and that gets him excited. He can't help himself. He's also the writer and director of a brand new movie called Little Angels, and it involves, he's a soccer player, and it involves soccer.

Now, did you write this knowing that I got to do this for Brian? Because knowing I've played since I was five? You were Hofstra? Was it where did you, where did you play? My brother played in Hofstra.

My brother played in Long Island University. Why did I know? I knew there was Hoffra in there. No, that was good, though, because you think Long Island. Exactly.

And you think Division I, and I was a Division II player. You look like a Division I player to me. That's what I count. I'm pretty sure you.

So, yeah, I wrote this movie for you because I care about you. Just before I hear a clip. Could you set it up? Tell me a little bit about the permanent. It's real simple.

It's like a college football coach, like a Nick Saban superstar coach who says something stupid in the national championship game about female athletes, and he gets suspended for a year and has to do community service in order to save his huge salary. And the community service is coaching under 13-year-old girls' soccer. He doesn't like kids and he doesn't like soccer. And take it from there. It's kind of a mighty ducks feel to it.

Excellent. You wrote it, you produced it, you starred it. Do you put yourself through the casting process and do you call other people for the role? Oh, yeah. And pretend as there's other contenders.

I tried to call you to come in, but I would have beat you, Dean. I'm telling you. I wouldn't have to act. I wouldn't know how to. Here's a contingency.

How do you cast myself? Yes, here's a clip from. Little Angels. You guys speak English? We're girls.

Not guys. And I speak English.

Well, good for you and the rest of you girls, do you speak English? Who are you? I'm Jake, and I guess I'm your new coach. Yay! I guess we don't care.

What are you reading there? The Bible. Why? Eternal salvation? Duh.

Anybody have a soccer ball? No sock, nothing? All right. Here's the deal. I want you guys to all run over to that tree over there.

Let's run over there and let me see what kind of athletes you are. Let's go. Run on over. Go, don't go at once, but go run now. Go, go, go, go, go.

Chop, chop. Let's go! You say chop chop because I'm Asian? I s I don't have my whistle. Are you on the team?

That is awesome.

So, the girls are not enthused that you're there. No, not at all. They don't even want to be playing soccer. They don't even care. They're the misfit group.

They're the team to be named later. You know, you get those when you, oh, you're on this team. You're brand new. We formed a new one. And so he has to take this group of misfits and turn them into a real team.

And it's all about team. You know, I love sports. I know you love sports. And it's about that teamwork. You can't do it by yourself.

And you learn humility because I don't care how fast you are. Even if you're Lionel Messi, you need your teammates. And how good you are, somebody's faster, somebody's stronger. On this particular day, you get knocked down. And so I think that teaches so much in life.

And the person who learns the most in this whole thing is myself, the coach. He learns the most from the girls because they're so tough and they become a really close-knit unit. And it's a lot of fun. And I think people will leave the theater with a smile on their face.

So we'll give you the premise for it. It's one of the things that just pops into your head.

Well, you know, you're always thinking about stories and things, and you can't help it. But my goddaughter and my niece were playing.

Soccer against each other, and they got to the championship game, and each one of them was in the goal, and it was in overtime.

So, how old are they? How old are they? At the time, they were 11 when this happened, and They were going to, it was penalty shootout, and they were the goalies, each one on opposite squads.

So one of them was going to lose, and there were tears for the losing team. That was my goddaughter. But then I took him for ice cream, and then 15 minutes later, it was over. But watching, there were 5,000 girls out there and families. And there's not a lot of there's, and everybody's like, but there's no movies.

The last sort of soccer movie for families was Ladybugs back in Roddy Dangerfield time. And I was like, well, I. I got an idea, and so I put it together. And it was a real natural progression into what it became. And I'm super happy with the film.

I mean, I made every cut, I wrote everything, I did everything.

So if you don't like it, if people don't like it out there, blame me. And where do we see it? It's in theaters everywhere starting June 6th. You got to go to littleangelsmovie.com and then it says where the theaters are. And if they're not in your area, just hit the little demand button.

Demand that it be there, Brian.

So, so, Dean, what is it like now doing a movie and thinking, is this for do I make the movie and offer it? Do I make the movie for the theater? Do I make the movie for a streamer? Do I try to get the contract first? How do you do it?

That part of the business is a real business, and it's a pain in the tail.

So the biggest thing is finding the money, first of all. And I got someone to invest the money, and that was great. Then we had some deals, and some people didn't see eye to eye, and things didn't happen.

So it took a little bit of time to actually get the distribution deal. Theaters, it's a different business now. You know, Tom Cruise and Mission Impossible is out there. You know, Lilo and Stitch, these massive karate kid, these huge, gigantic, very expensive movies. And here we have a smaller film that it's a family film.

We hope it picks up steam, and then it'll go to the streaming. Why was it better to go theater than stream? Is it just you do both to get a little bit of a theatrical release is always a good thing. You know, get some eyeballs on it, maybe get some word of mouth because you could always catch fire. And that's what I'm hoping is that families go and see this and go, man, that was a good time, a good family movie.

You can bring your whole family and you know you're not going to get anything untoward. It's got a couple of Bugs Bunny-like jokes where the kids will hear one part of the joke, but the parents will hear the other part. And that's it. I love it. The other thing would be the World Cup's coming here.

The club championships are this summer.

So I think that the days when, oh, if you don't play soccer, you're going to watch it. I go into these sports bars now, and they're not soccer players. I go, you just watch the Premier League or you're watching for fun. Like, I'm not a football player, but I've watched thousands of games, right? That's accepted, but it was very rare 10 years ago to see a bunch of people that didn't play.

And now I see a bunch of people that just like sports and just watching this What's exciting is, heck, I especially like World Cup because it's countries. Oh, yeah. And that's super fun. And in Little Angels, we got, so they're all girl players, right?

So he and he's not a good soccer coach.

So who does he bring in? Brandy Chastain.

So she comes in. Oh, you've got Brandy Chastain. She comes in and gives like a seminar and teaches the coach, you know, how to get the kids together and how to do things and how to kick penalties. How do you can she act? She can act.

Man, she. I just go, you know, she's a coach, so she's a soccer coach now, and obviously she knows more about the game than I'll ever know. And I just had her. Put a little seminar on for the kids, and she had speeches, she had stuff. I mean, I just, how am I gonna write for her how to?

Coach soccer, you know, so she just did it all. And then she was a full natural when it came to acting, just piece of cake. She has some phony lines in the thing, but you know, she has the greatest World Cup goal, I think, of all time for the United States when they beat China and she scored that final goal. And then she ripped off her shirt, the cover of Sports Illustrated. She had the sports bra underneath, but that was a classic moment of empowerment.

From 100,000. Yeah, and that was a classic moment of female empowerment. People are like, I can't believe she did that. What every male soccer player has ever done forever, and I thought it was amazing. And she's in the movie and she's great.

And I loved it. Quick process question. Because you always hear about Larry David says he doesn't really script stuff out. He gets comedians on there and they just know where they start and where it ends. With her.

Do you just say, I need a speech that means something like this? Or do you say, Here's my monologue, memorize it? What do you mean? Oh, no, for her, because listen. And she's not an actor.

Yeah, she's not an actor, but also she knows more about the subject than I do.

So I said, and she has this foundation called the Bossy Girls, B-A-W-S-I, and she's a coach. And I said, you know, Just give a little motivational speech for these guys. Keep it short, you know, get to the point, you know. And so she came up with her words there. The only thing I had her do in a scene was: I don't want to give it away, but she has to sort of critique my teammate.

And the girls are great and blah, blah, blah. But then she has to give me some realistic expectations for my team, which aren't real. It's kind of bad news bears. But she was so good. And I love her to death.

And she was so great with the girls. It's unbelievable. You could see how good a coach she is and how knowledgeable. Can I expand this a little? Yes.

Ivy League, there's two things. I got it in Los Angeles, the shape it's in right now. I know you left it, but it's still burned to the ground, and almost nothing's been done, and people want to spin it differently. I know you still have friends there, but I want to talk about what time with the Ivy Leagues. You famously went to Princeton, and you starred in football there, played in the Bills for a brief period of time.

But I think you lead them all time in tackles, correct? I lead them all time in interceptions. Interceptions. I was second on the team in tackles for two years in a row, but all-time for interceptions in a single season and all-time for interceptions career. And those are NCAA records.

That's all. Do you think they deserve the scrutiny they're getting from this administration? And could they have gotten the same scrutiny back then, or have they changed dramatically since you graduated in the 80s?

So fortunately, Princeton's not getting all the heat. It's Harvard getting all the heat. But do they deserve some heat? Princeton deserves some heat in the past. And I think for their past, that's exactly it.

The anti-Semitism got me. Listen, there were things that I disagreed with when I was at the university, and I never felt like I was being indoctrinated, and I was encouraged to speak out. And you're encouraged to challenge ideas. That sort of has gone away, and I've seen that go away. You know, when we were in college, when I go back and think about my college days and some of the You know, the social justice things that were going on then.

It was just people were just grandstanding and full of baloney, to be honest. They really were, they had no idea what they were talking about, 95% of the time. And I suspect that some of these kids feel the same way, other than they've been indoctrinated. I've seen what some of the professors have had to say. Even my professors at Princeton, which I disagreed with vehemently.

So I think they're being indoctrinated to some degree. And I think there is a rot throughout the Ivy League. I love the anti-Semitism is the reason it started, but the lack of broad support, 5% of the faculty at Harvard and Princeton, it's thought to be 5% are conservatives. That's wrong. And the president of Harvard at a podcast on NPR came out and said, No, wait, on NPR?

On NPR. Said, you know, there is a problem with people telling me that they're afraid to speak out.

Okay, you admit it.

So you would, this is in a friendly interview, he says they're afraid to speak out.

So that has changed. From the administration point of view, are they right to say keep international students at 15%? Are they right to say hit these marks, you'll lose your aid? Mm. I think so.

I think so. I mean, look, 27% of Harvard students are foreign. I mean, that's more than a quarter of the students. That's a lot of money for the university. But, you know, everybody from China has to report back to the Chinese government.

It's a law if you're over here studying. I mean, you know what's going on. You've got people coming in here, spending the money, and you're putting administrators' salaries through the roof, but you're not helping American kids.

So I think 15% would be a great cap. I don't know if they, or no federal money. Do whatever you want to if you're a private institution. Princeton's private, but if they got federal money, you got to adhere to federal standards.

So I want you to hear the keynote speaker at the Harvard's commencement address. He's some esteemed doctor from Stanford, Dr. Abraham Verghese. Listen to what his message is. Cut 20.

A cascade of draconian government measures. has already led to so much uncertainty, so much Pain and suffering. in this country and across the globe. And more has been threatened. The outrage you must feel the outrage so many feel Also must surely lead us.

to a new appreciation. Appreciation for the rule of law and due process, which till now we took for granted.

So he is for the international student, obviously, not for the scrutiny and the pressure. The president's taking $3.5 billion worth of ate away, and it's going to get worse. It's going to get worse. But I love that even his speech, even his manner of speaking, sounds so professorial and learned, if you will. But he says you must feel outraged.

I wouldn't have felt outraged. Why does he assume to think what I feel, you know, as a student or as a person watching? I disagree with his characterization of it all. That's fine. But, you know, it sounds almost globalist.

You know what I mean? It's a globalist view as opposed to an American view, and it's an American university. I just think that they need to be more aware of that. I want to get your take on what this administration is doing a little bit more. And also, Elon Musk has got a big meeting today in the White House.

It's going to be his exit, his speech, his exit speech. He'll probably be back in some way, shape, or form at some point. What's your thought about Doge? And I got to get your take on Los Angeles. Dean Kane here, his movie's coming out.

Little Angels is coming out June 6th. June 6th. It's going to be exciting. A way to scramble with the whole family to theaters. Back in a moment.

Illuminating, intriguing, inculcating. I know some of these words. It's Brian Kilmead. Breaking news, unique opinions. Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show.

So, Dean, I know some people out in, Dean Kane is with us today. His movie's coming out in a week, Little Angels. But Dean, I know some people out in Law, California, I lived out there for four years, and I knew when the Pacific Palisades burned to the ground in Altadena, which is the working class area too, I go, just wait. When it comes to rebuilding, they're going to have all my stuff burned in the Malvo fires, by the way, but I had nothing. I just rented an apartment.

But these people can't get permits. They can't get their green passes. There's only been 60 issued, but the. Mayor Bass is taking a bow saying they're on the fast track. What is the reality as you know it?

The exact opposite.

So, my sister still lives in Malibu. I left two years ago and moved to Las Vegas. Thank God.

So, I moved out of there and got out of there. But we've been dealing with fires forever. We know how it works. We know what goes on. The Palisades burning down the way it did, Malibu burning down the way it is.

They are. I predicted this. I say, you're going to go through this red tape. You're going to face the government that you voted for, all the regulations in the red tape, and it's going to be strangulating to these people. And I think that it might help it turn purple because it's a very blue-blue area and it's insane.

None of these people are going to be able to rebuild unless they have huge money. I was on Gutfeld last night, so I got to talk to Mr. Wonderful Kevin O'Leary, and he was just asking questions about what it was like people trying to rebuild and what they're doing. All the businesses are dying that are in there. They're getting a permit.

Mayor Bass is so inept, it's ridiculous. She's one of the worst. It's horrific. And so, just for a great, here's a perfect example. She lost to Rick Caruso, who for mayor.

He ran for mayor. She beat Rick Caruso for mayor. She got elected. He did not. When the fires were coming out, she took off and went to Ghana for a trip.

Rick Caruso hired a private firefighting security detail to protect his very expensive mall in Pacific Palisades. Everything else burned down in the Palisades. But Caruso's mall stood solid because he took the preparations, he did the work. She ain't doing anything except for causing trouble. When it comes to the taxes that actually follow you once you leave, when it comes to the quality of life and the oil and gas, how much is it expensive to fill up your tank with all the fees on it?

And you guys don't use your refineries anymore. This might be the cataclysmic opportunity for a Republican, which wasn't out. That wasn't crazy. Pete Wilson was a Republican. Schwartz Anago was a Republican.

I remember them both very well. Yeah, it's not crazy. It takes things like this, unfortunately, to wake people up because things were really good. There was a surplus when Newsom first came in, and now we're 12 billion in the hole.

Well, they are. I left California. I'm not even going to claim it anymore because it drove me out. I'm one of those. Gajillion people who made Gavin Newsome the U-Haul salesperson of the year.

I moved out like so many others who want to. And everybody I talk to says the same thing. It's like, why, man, California sucks. It's beautiful weather, but it sucks. And when I go back there, the homeless problems, the crime problems, it's all just horrible management.

Self-inflicted. 100%.

So there's certain things that happen to happen.

Well, hurricanes hit or floods happen. Yeah. Nothing to do with this. Nothing to do with this. But the other thing that I find maddening is Hollywood.

You probably went out there, coming out of Princeton football guy, you have an actor, you're an actor, you got to go to Los Angeles. Sure.

Now, what is the business like? What is happening in Los Angeles? Do they, the studios, the lots I hear are empty?

So, Disney doesn't even want the Fox lot.

Well, the problem is that they drove everybody out, and nobody wants to be there.

So, right now, you wouldn't do a movie in California. I would, but I wouldn't like it because, first of all, I live in Nevada now, and I'd rather do it in Nevada where there's no state income tax. And are there enhancements to make you want to go there? Incentives? There are some, but they're, you know, I'm doing a film in Georgia later in the year.

I'm doing two investments. A lot of incentives at tremendous incentives in Georgia and Louisiana and other places you go, okay, this is worthwhile to come out here. Tennessee has them as well. And so when you get back 30%, 40% of your budget, it makes a big deal, especially in these smaller films.

So outside the award shows, is it still the entertainment capital? I think they're losing it. I think they're losing it completely. Everybody I know who can get out is out. And so many people I know film outside the country now.

Oh, yeah. Well, because they make it worth your while. Guys, check out Little Angels. It's a family movie, especially if you're a sports family, soccer family, football family, and think that Dean Kane is really sexy. Which I think America believes that.

I believe it. I know you believe it, Dean. Ha ha ha ha. From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest growing radio talk show. Brian.

In Killmead. Everyone, so glad you're here. Thanks so much for listening. I can come to you from 40th and 6th in midtown, Manhattan, heard around the country, around the world, where last night I did something I rarely do because I get up at 2.30 in the morning to go to work from Long Island. And yesterday I said, I got to go watch the Knicks.

I mean, I have not, I was doing all sports. I used to cover the Knicks when they were great every year, just where they get it to the finals or semifinals.

So much drama, you know, Patrick Ewing era. And then when I stopped doing sports, if I go to a game, it'll just wipe me out the next day. But last night, I said the heck with it. And I went to the game, and it was just fantastic. Even if you're a Pacers fan, you see, you felt the drama.

I felt like the Pacers were totally overwhelmed by the crowd, even though they won there twice. Just my opinion. Link Lauren is coming up in 15 minutes. He's a big influencer. And Shannon Bream has an influence over our show.

Anchor of Fox News Sunday. Keep in mind, too, One Nation is taking shape. It's coming up Sunday at 10 p.m. And on Fox News channel, amongst my guests, Suge Knight from Prison and Mark Halpern, as well as we have the general in charge of the Golden Dome and our border joining us to tell us how exactly he's going to do both. Let's get to the big three.

Number three. I remember one person said something like, Biden, like to me, where it was like Biden won the presidency, but like Clinton the progressives won the transition. It wasn't just the direction that they set in policy, it was a lot of the personnel Toxic, radioactive pick, a description for anyone associated with the Biden administration as questions mount about who was really in charge of the White House for four years because we're all saddled with the effects. Hearings and subpoenas are about to commence. Number two.

So what Harvard has been doing is pro-terrorism, anti-American, and we shouldn't be using U.S. taxpayer dollars to be funding this type of anti-American activity. That is the Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs, Tricia McLaughlin. Harvard gets short-term legal lifesaver as the spotlight on their campus, the admissions, foreign students, anti-Semitism gets brighter and soon to be blinding in my view. We're going to look at Trump vs.

Harvard. Number one. He's bypassed the tariff laws to order tariffs, to pause them, to increase them, to waive them. Under the Constitution, which gives tariff authority to Congress, the President doesn't have that authority. That is Andrew Morris from the bottom line last night.

Here we go. The courts get in the way again of the Trump agenda, this time blocking tariffs. Let's hope these new trade deals start coming out a quicker pace as we look at get the country and Elon Musk and more back on track in the economy ready to go.

So, what am I referring to?

So, a group went up to the. Uh to this trade. Corn. That's rarely used, I understand. I'm not I'm not Mr.

You know, I'm not the guy really in charge of all legal aspects of the show. But the way I understand it, when it comes to the tariffs, the thing that was so hard for the president to understand is one of the judges on the International Trade Court is from, he assigned them. He's a little mad because he says one of them was recommended by the Federalist Society, and he's not conservative.

So he said, I was depending on these people. I didn't really know the judges. And this judge ruled that the president cannot, does not have the power under the law they stated, to have massive tariffs.

So, what does that do? You're trying to get leverage over a country to rebalance our trade with the EU, with China, with Vietnam, with Japan. Obviously, there's a bunch to be done. And then a court goes, oh, you can't even do that.

Well, quickly, the U.S. Court of Appeals jumped in and they put a temporary stay in effect just one day after the Court International Trade Commission said you can't do that. President put on Truth Social, how upset he is at the Federalist Society.

Meanwhile, Japan is at the White House right now, finishing touches, we believe, on a trade deal. EU says we're unaffected by what the courts are saying. We're moving swiftly to get a deal with the U.S. and China is hailing the court's ruling and validating Trump tariffs and everyone will leave. I say, Jamison Greer, do this as quick as possible.

Get the courts out of this. Get our new trade deals. I don't want these judges deciding whether the president has leverage to rebalance trade. Do you? Did anyone challenge him the first four years?

Did you challenge Joe Biden when he left Trump's tariffs in place on China? Of course you didn't. And they said they got a Uh another plan. And their plan was to enact the same act they used last time. Evidently, it's called the Trade Act of 1974, which includes language allowing tariffs from up to 15 to 150 percent.

So that's a big deal. Because you all of a sudden lose control. When you can't control your own country's tariff policy, why should a country go do a deal with you? And how do you possibly get leverage? It's really disturbing.

Kevin Hassett weighed in, cut six. And so this is a big victory for the President. And I just got to say that you also can see, if you just look at the data, that President Trump's vision is working, that we've received $50 billion to $60 billion in tariff revenue since we've started the tariffs. Inflation has gone down. In fact, if you think about it, the automakers for foreign auto companies are running ads saying they're not going to increase prices.

So it's working exactly the way we thought. And we're very pleased with the decision today.

So decision to stay, but it's all temporary. And that's what I just think lights of fire under everybody's butt to get moving. And I like to see this get done. We all do. The big questions is, why are these courts playing such a role in policy?

You know, it's hard enough having an opposition, and then you got people in your own party that don't agree with you, but now you've got to deal with courts that are motivated to stop you. Mary Barris, the general manager, is the chair and CEO of General Motors, Cut 7. From an auto perspective, the 232 were always in place. We're looking at it carefully, but we knew there was going to be more change. And so, you know, there's going to be a period where this all gets worked out.

You know, there's still more deals to do.

So we're waiting for that. But there are certain moves that we're already making to strengthen our North America manufacturing because we can do that with the clarity we already have. Yeah, so we'll see what's going to happen. The other big story, and I'll bring up more about the economy and Scott Besson. What a great job he's doing last night.

And word is things have broken down with China, gone into a stall. And the president's probably going to call President Xi within a week and get that going again. When it comes to education, what's happening with Harvard? Harvard got a victory to a degree. The president said I'm going to take back $2.5 billion worth of grants they're suing to get the money back.

A judge also blocked President Trump's effort to restrict foreign students at Harvard. Right now, it makes up 27% of the student body, 18% of which are from China. China, really? We're still doing this? Harvard's graduation ceremony was filled with digs at President Trump because he's the bad guy, even though this is an anti-Semitic rage campus with more Palestinian groups than I think sports groups and clubs.

And by the way, Marco Ruby, I love that he did this. He put a statement out on social media saying under President Trump's leadership, the U.S. State Department will work with the Department of Homeland Security to revoke visas for Chinese students, including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party, which I think is every of them, because when you're born there, you got like, oh, I'm with the opposition party. That usually gets you put in jail.

So now all the 275,000 Chinese students. Let me ask you, how many Students we have studying in China. I hear those schools are pretty good. How many students? How about a few thousand?

I mean, uh few thousand, the whole school, the whole country.

So the policy changes impacting students. The Visa revocations targeting Chinese students could impact two hundred eighty thousand. The Visa interviews being paused and social media vetting being expanded, part of the broader effort to reduce economic and educational ties. But We have to. They're our enemy.

It was their decision, not ours. My problem with social media vetting is they don't have Facebook, they don't have X, they don't really have anything. They don't they're on TikTok exchanging workout videos, not like us.

So, I don't know how you're going to discover things. I just think you have to limit the amount of Chinese students. There's no doubt about it. I don't want to train these people to fight against us. Number one, They have to give up any information that they get because their families are left behind.

That's the only reason they're allowed to travel here. But of course, Alan Garber, the Harvard president, now suddenly last year he was booed for standing up against anti-Semitism. Get your head around that for a second. Cut 19. Members of the class of 2025.

From down the street. across the country And around the world. Around the world, just as it should be. I see you this morning. Right.

Um I can't listen anymore. But Alan Garber got Crowds to applaud by people who are very liberal, obviously graduates, and 30% of the crowd. Is international.

So through translation, they know he's singing their song.

So, this is going to go through the courts.

So, right now, you can freeze all. They decide to dig in and sue back. Go ahead. Game on. The more scrutiny you get about your policies of admissions, about your breakdown of international students, about the anti-Semitism that's allowed to flourish, about the uncomfortability of people who are conservative, let's say, or among the faculty, how few go there, the more scrutiny, the more people are going to resent the hell out of Harvard education.

Columbia said we're a mess. What do we need to unfreeze $400 million? Harvard says, How dare you? I'll sue you. I'm pretty sure it's not going to work out for them just by going through the process, let alone the thousands they're wasting.

Uh, on their legal fees, maybe it's going to get to millions already. Uh, Shannon Brem at the bottom of the hour. Link Lauren, former senior advisor to RFK, presidential campaign.

Next on Zoom, you'll listen to the Brian Kilmeet Show. Coming to you on a need-to-know basis because Mandy, you need to know. It's Brian Kilmead. A talk show that's real. This is the Brian Killmead Show.

Frankly, the former first lady should certainly speak up about what she saw in regards to her husband and when she saw it and what she knew. Because I think anybody looking again at the videos and photo evidence of Joe Biden with your own eyes and a little bit of common sense can see this was a clear cover-up. And Jill Biden was certainly complicit in that cover-up. That is Caroline Levitt yesterday to the question: should Jill Biden be subpoenaed? There's no way the first lady should be subpoenaed to go in front of the oversight committee.

To find out what was happening, I think you want to find out what was happening. Also, you want to find out whose agenda it was with the auto-penned. I don't know. Is it easy to find out what was auto-penned or not? And then, can you revoke some of the things that did take place?

No drilling in the Arctic, no drilling in offshore, the cease and desist of all fracking. It's a little bit late now, but should somebody be responsible for that? Let's bring in Link Lauren, former senior advisor for RFK Jr., big time social media presence. Link, what's your reaction to the role that oversight should be playing in investigating what happened? Or are you under the belief we should just be looking ahead?

I actually think we do need a referendum. I want a full investigation. I want Karine Jean-Pierre called in. I want all of Biden's advisors called in and put under oath, give them a polygraph. We should know, as taxpayers, who was controlling the auto pin?

Who were these unelected bureaucrats that were making big decisions that affected us and impacted our lives in negative ways, right? Clearly, Joe Biden was not the one making these big decisions. The guy was asleep basically after 4 p.m. and before 10 a.m., according to reporting from Axio.

So they should definitely call people in. I think we should call Jill Biden in, the first lady, because she sat behind the desk on Air Force One. She was running cabinet meetings. She was basically the de facto president while Joe Biden was out to lunch mentally.

So I do think Jill Biden, the first lady, should be called in. Let's ask her some questions. I know, but I just can't see it. I think it's a bad precedent to have a first lady called in. And even though I do think everything you said is right, I do think she was making a ton of decisions.

I also think it's so irresponsible. One of the most irresponsible things a spouse could ever do, Biden or not, Democrats. Republican or not. I mean, just letting him walk through the sand. In front of all the cameras, knowing that he can't walk on flat ground to embarrass him like that is something you wouldn't expect somebody to do.

But when you look at what's happening with the Jake Tavers and the CNNs now going after this story, and Joe Scarborough now going after what really took place there, knowing that they were the biggest advocates and just kept their eyes closed and looked straight ahead this whole time, what's your reaction to that, Link?

Well, I have to chime in on something you just said about Joe Biden. I've gotten messages from women for months, from moms, from girlfriends, from wives, and they say, I don't know what kind of woman would let her husband go out there in that June 27th debate on CNN and make a fool of himself.

So, Jill Biden and Hunter Biden, if they really loved Joe, they wouldn't have pressured him to run again, but they're so power hungry and thirsty for fame and fortune, they couldn't do that. As for Jake Tapper, to tie it all in, I just read last night, Jake Tapper has his lowest ratings in a decade. He's doing less than 100,000 viewers in the key demographic, and it's because Jake Tapper is a liar, okay? He's a feckless coward who refused to cover Joe Biden's decline in any real way. And he slapped his name on this book that Alex Thompson was already working on.

So nobody should trust Jake Tapper. It's like the Hunter Biden laptop. They said it's Russian disinformation. It's not real. It's fake.

We're all looking at the pictures and the videos from the laptop.

So Jake Tapper, he can give Lara Trump an apology. He can express contrition. No one will ever trust him again because he tried to tell us not to believe what we were seeing with our own eyes. They tried to gaslight us time and time again. And Americans are over it.

They're changing the channel.

So let's talk about what Democrats are doing now because the Civil War is fascinating to me. Jasmine Crockett, who seems just love the camera, she proclaims this is the fact behind the scenes that you and I, Link, don't see. CUP 35. I can tell you in real life that I've had a number of Republicans that approach me as they see me out and they say, Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I really like you. Like we come from completely different parties, but I believe that you are fighting for the people.

I believe that you are trying to do what's best for all of us. I may disagree with how you feel like we get there. But I agree with your fight and I think that that What's scary for them is this idea that it's not just, say, black folk that are listening to me, right? Or it's not just like super liberal folk. It's this idea that, you know, people who even aren't Democrats Would actually listen to what I have to say.

Like, do we watch her and listen to her like we watch The View? just to see something uh sort of laugh out loud like a car wreck.

Well, anytime I see Jasmine Crockett, she's posting these ridiculous TikTok videos where she's dancing down the hall. This is what I say about all the Democrats: they don't want to work, they want to twerk. That's all they want to do. They want to post videos, they want to break into song on the House floor. Look at Al Green, he's waving his cane around, introducing articles of impeachment.

The only Al Green I like is the Let's Stay Together RB Al Green. But Jasmine Crockett, I think the reason Republicans are coming up to her and saying, We love you. You're amazing, Jasmine. Oh, we're gassing you up. They want Jasmine to run in 2028.

They would love for Jasmine Crockett to run for president.

So Jasmine is believing the hype, but no, she's incredibly uncouth. And people say you're judging Jasmine Crockett because she's a woman. She's a woman of color. No, we've lowered the bar so much for Jasmine Crockett. If a white man was behaving in that way, we'd all be talking about it too.

This has nothing to do with race and gender. But white men are the worst. And I can't say that enough. But it's interesting. You have people who knew Biden and didn't.

They're divided. And then you have people that are way on the left, like Bernie Sanders, against oligarchs, and that's divided from the Rahm Emanuels. And then you have young and old. She's one of the people that wants to be the ranking member on the Oversight Committee. And they're looking to put this guy, Congressman Lynch, up there who's 70 years old.

And they want Schumer out, and other people want a younger person in. Link, do you know anything about this young-old fight the Democrats are having?

Well, I don't really care so much about age. I care about cognitive capacity, right? If you're the best person for the job, then you should have the job. I don't think Jasmine Crockett should be in any position of power. I wouldn't trust Jasmine Crockett to lead an electric slide or a conga line, okay?

I wouldn't trust Jasmine Crockett to babysit my dog.

So if she wants to be in charge of all these committees, then good luck to her. But I don't care so much about age. And my thing with Joe Biden is this, right? If he had perfect functioning capacity, I don't think we'd be having this discussion, but he clearly had dementia, Alzheimer's, and was not doing well. President Trump is spry and quick and sharp, and he talks about that all the time.

He has friends who are 100 years old who are quick and sharp.

So I don't care so much about the numerical age. I care about if you're up to the job. And you don't feel that she's up for the job. And let's just see, because that's something where you can really make a name for yourself, or you could blow yourself up. We'll see.

Hey, Link, thanks so much. You can follow him at it's Link Lauren on all his social media. Link, appreciate it. Thanks for having me. All right, you're welcome.

Coming up next, Shannon Bream, the anchor of Fox News Sunday, will bring us up to date on what's happening, along with something we have not discussed yet. Russia and Ukraine talks, and a preliminary talks going forward with some type of framework of a deal with Iran. Not for it. A radio show like no other. It's Brian Killmead.

And so we took this case on because we see it as still in line with attacking the excesses of the administrative state in certain ways. In this case, the concerns are that what the president has done is ordered tariffs under an emergency statute. He's declared an emergency, and then we've seen the result has been the chaos of all these. All these tariffs. He's bypassed the tariff laws and claimed, as the court in New York called it, unlimited power to order tariffs, to pause them, to increase them, to waive them.

And under the Constitution, which gives tariff authority to Congress, and then laws that Congress is passed, the President doesn't have that authority.

Well, that is Andrew Morris. The reason why I played that boring guy speaking because he said a lot of substantive things there. He's the senior litigation counsel, NCLA's senior litigation counsel, suing Trump's administration on behalf of small businesses. They didn't like the tariffs that were put on with other countries.

So they took him to court, and this court, this trade court, rarely used, I understand, decided against the president's ability to put on tariffs without Congress. Congress didn't have a problem, but this group did, and these judges do. It was immediately stayed, and we don't know how long the president's got some other things he's going to do. But meanwhile, he's trying to negotiate with people. And now he looks like he could possibly be losing leverage.

It has not affected negotiations yet. Shannon Bream, anchor of Fox News Sunday, chief legal correspondent from Fox, joins us now. Shannon, what? What about where this tariff challenge is now? I thought one of the interesting things is, I was told that they used a different legal argument to.

Implement these tariffs than the one they used in 2000? If so, does that play into what happened yesterday? Was Dave Thorn?

Well, I think because the President, right, he used something different here with these emergency powers this time around, and they were much bigger and broader. And I think that the court saw the scope of that as way beyond what those emergency powers would have been used for.

So I do think, you know, this Trump 2.0 administration is swinging for the fences. And they know they have limited time. And so I think they're trying to get creative. I think they're trying to go as aggressively as possible. And that means that they know they're going to immediately end up in court.

So not surprising. And, you know, this is on a fast track like everything else to the Supreme Court. And they are overloaded. You know, they're trying to end their normal term with all those big decisions we would get in June anyway. And, you know, 17, 18 now emergency being pending at the Supreme Court.

And we just got a decision on one of those.

So, you know, the legal maneuvering will continue. Yeah, I I guess they they were using something called the Trade Act of 1974, which includes language allowing for tariffs for up to 15 percent for 150 days and things of that nature. They could always go back to something like that and offer that, but it's just a bunch of A bunch of turbulence for negotiation. This isn't for negotiating with the maximum leverage possible.

Well, and that's the thing is if foreign countries are looking and seeing, like, oh, it looks like these courts are going to shut down what their own president there in the United States of America is trying to do, then why should we feel any pressure at the table or to deal with these numbers as high as they are? If we know, like, okay, maybe the worst we end up with is 15 percent, but Trump is talking about fifty percent, a hundred percent, one hundred and twenty percent, you're a lot less motivated to get to that table and be afraid of where this thing could end up if you think that the country you're dealing with, its own courts are going to shut down that president's ability to stick it to you.

So, I guess we'll see where that's going to go. And also, the Harvard decision to to stop President Trump from banning international students as well as Harvard's now illegally going to look to block the administration from not giving them two point five billion dollars in grants. How do you see that coming through?

Well yeah. Say, you know, this is taxpayer money. And I think it's feeling to me like COVID when people started to see what was going on in schools because the kids were then on Zoom and they're seeing the curriculum and people's eyes were open and they were really angry. I think we're having a similar thing with the Harvards of the world where people look around and are saying, why is there so much taxpayer money going to all of these things that, you know, I can barely keep my own budget together and pay my mortgage and pay for gas and pay for groceries. And we're giving billions of dollars to these schools that have multi-billion dollar endowments.

So listen, I think there's the legal battle. I also think there's the optics battle that is going to be fought with this. And I think on that front, Harvard is in some trouble. They may be winning in the courts. We'll see where they ultimately get with the Supreme Court if it goes that far.

But in the court of public opinion, they've got some real dings against them. It looks like Doge is going to go. It looks like the head of Doge is going to go and he's going to get a formal send-off. But I think he's going to leave his team behind. I think that.

They all should be part of the press conference today. Among the people, not fans, Senator Mark Kelly. Listen to how he described Elon Musk, Cut 15.

Well, it was incredibly short, and that's a good thing. He did a lot of damage. I had veterans in my office that had previously received excellent performance reports that were fired for poor performance with an email from Elon Musk. And in a couple cases, these folks are telling me how their lives have been ruined. For no reason.

So, Elon did incredible damage. It's still lasting today. We've got seniors that. Having a hard time getting through to a social social security office because of the damage Elon did.

So it's good that he's gone. So your sense, firing people, people made the most of that when he tried to when he went ahead and did the best he can to lean out the federal workforce. Yeah, and so many of those cases are still pending. There are dozens of them, you know, just related to Doge federal spending. Firings, laying off, downsizing, all of those things.

So, I think that a lot of that's still going to play out. And these employees have had a lot of success in the federal courts with getting their jobs back.

So, I think that the idea that there's a complete decimation of services here in Washington, we all know that's not true. I think for Musk, and I'm really interested to see his press conference with President Trump this afternoon. I think he walked into a buzzsaw like President Trump did in 2017 when he showed up here vowing to drain the swamp. And then you find out how entrenched everything is here. And these Rs will talk about cuts and cleaning out waste, fraud, and abuse.

And there was some bipartisanship on the front of Doge, but once you start touching programs and constituents and people that you have a special interest in, then you often check out.

So I think that Elon found out. Listen, it is a really tough thing to do to walk into Washington. And for the left now, they're going to have to find a new bad guy. Because remember, people I think were sort of doled to all of the accusations against Trump and whether you wanted to call him a Nazi or racist or whatever. That kind of had lessened.

People were just not, it was falling on deaf ears. When Elon came along, they had a new bad guy. Remember in the Wisconsin Supreme Court, a race up there that was so big. It wasn't necessarily they were running ads against President Trump. They were running against them against Elon.

So he exits stage left. I mean the left's going to have a new a bad guy to find and I think they actually enjoyed having him around. Yeah, well, the president likes him. I don't think there's any doubt about it. Everybody was wrong.

They said these two were going to clash, never get along. And even if they disagree, they do it respectfully. And I don't think there's any problem with that. And it just goes to show you that people think that they know, but they never know. Lastly, when you look at what's happening with the Big Beautiful Bill, I guess the Senate's going to try to get some traction on it.

Early indications are this is going to be tougher than we thought. We thought the House would be tougher. When you see Ron Johnson Rand Paul, Rick Scott, and weigh in, and then Senator Susan Collins weigh in with problems, but just the opposite, this is going to be tough. Yeah, because you know there was like bubblegum and paperclips holding together that house deal, you know, to get it across the finish line with all of these special deals that Johnson had to work out.

So that when you, yeah, you look across the aisle, I had Rand Paul on last week on Fox News Sunday when they're like, he's like, there's no way I'm voting for this because it's got a hike to the debt ceiling.

Well, so yeah, he's just one, as you mentioned, others, Holly and Collins, and Murkowski and Johnson on the Senate side, they all have different objections. And so Speaker Johnson has been over there saying, hey, do minimal damage to this because whatever you send back, I'm going to have a really hard time together, holding together my coalition over here.

So listen, they've counted these guys out numbers of times and they've still managed to get things done.

So Foon and Johnson feel very hopeful that they're in a good place and that with the president's help when they need it for that last-minute push, they're going to get this done by July 4th.

Well, I'm excited. You have a big show coming up on Sunday, consequential as usual. Who are your lead guests?

So we've got Senator Dave McCormick out of Pennsylvania. We'll talk about him either. President is there today giving a big speech about tariffs and steel and trade and all those things. But I also have the Senate Project debate on Monday that I'm hosting between Senator McCormick and Senator John Fetterman.

So, both sides of the aisle there in very purple Pennsylvania.

So, that's live on Fox Nation 9 a.m. We'll preview that on Sunday. We've also got Jake Auchincloss, a Democrat congressman. He's a Harvard alum. He's going to join us in Boston where we're going to be on the set of the Edward Kennedy Senate Institute.

And we're going to talk with him about what Harvard is getting right and wrong in this fight and this showdown with the Trump administration.

So, busy show on Sunday. It's going to be great. And of course, Sunday at night, I'm going to talk in prison to Suge Knight. He's going to be calling in to talk about the P. Diddy trial.

Is this for real? Isn't that cold? I can't wait. Yeah. I mean, he's in for murder.

He's not a hero, but he is doing his time. But they've, you know, in the trial, as you know, it came up that P. Diddy found out he was in a diner and him and his men were going to go down and kill him. And he luckily had left that diner a short time before P. Diddy showed up.

So how does he feel about that? They're in that whole rap world where everyone was killing everybody. I can't. And the other one is we also have Mark Halperin's going to be joining us. Dean Kane will be on.

And the general in charge of the Golden Dome, who's also in charge of our border, will tell us how he's doing it.

So that's my hope to keep you interested. We're going to be exhausted if they're doing your show. But I'm fascinated. Or watch 10 o'clock on Sunday.

Well, I will, but I want to know, you and Dean Kane, will there be any kind of like push-up, pull-up contest? I'd kill him. I'd kill him. Let's be honest. I'm in the prime of my life.

Gene, I hope you're listening. Yeah. You know what? He's a football player who did a soccer movie, so he's now my new hero. Oh, we see you guys having more in common.

All right, Dean, don't flex on Kill Me. I'll be watching Sunday night. Hey, Chan and Bream, have a great weekend. I can't wait to watch your show. Bye-bye.

Back in a moment. Diving deep into today's top stories, it's Brian Kilmead. The more you listen, the more you'll know. It's Brian Killmead. Do you think there are laws that?

Should be put in place that would help better manage this that aren't in place now? I mean, are we equipped? Is the law enforcement system and the legal system equipped to deal with what we're seeing now? Probably there could be changes at the margins, but in the main, we have the tools. There are cultural impediments to doing this work.

Let's say you work in the FBI. You know that one of the two political parties is Let me put it nicely, white supremacist adjacent at a minimum. And so why would you want to throw your career on that side of the line and be summoned to Capitol Hill to be asked, why are you pursuing these innocent groups? And so we have a cultural impediment to working it effectively that should get more attention than it does. James could be talking riddles to Jen Saki, but he's a disgraced FBI director.

The more we're finding out about him, he spent all his time during the first Trump administration just trying to destroy Trump and make sure that he got impeached and setting him up along the way at the same time Deciding on his own. And the more you find out about the FBI and DOJ, I was actually on vacation at the time. And I see James Comey's going to have a press conference. I go, Okay, I gotta watch this. What's going on?

He cites all these things about Hillary Clinton and says, I'm not gonna indict her. And it's not even his decision. He did it without talking to it's like if uh Cash Patel did it without telling Pam Bondi. They're like, what are you doing? What am I going to?

I'm going to say all these things you did wrong, but I'm not going to indict her. What? And then they decide that she took more emails and they decide to indict her. And they say it affected. The election.

And maybe that played into why he decided to spend the next six months trying to destroy Donald Trump through illicit means. And now he is. Smugly, telling saying Cash Patel is the guy that caught the car. Big critic, he can't handle it. He's obviously overwhelmed, doesn't understand what he's doing.

Don't think so. But I think James Comey's turning out to be nobody's friend. Except his own. I mean, the ego is so out of control, it's ridiculous. But the Republican Party is full of white supremacists, really.

Adjacent, probably. He's a Republican.

So he's like many, like the Liz Cheneys. Conservative, can't handle it. He claims to be a conservative, can't handle it. John Bolton, friend of the show, went over as chief of staff, is now so anti-Trump. David Frum, same thing.

Comey's in the same boat. And they feel as though when Trump's done, the party will be back the way it was. What Trump's done is expanded the party: working class union members, young people, Hispanics, record rate. No one thought this was possible.

So, if you want to go back to a party that alienated rightly or wrongly those people, go ahead. James Comey's your guy. They'll be your FBI director, could line up your whole staff. But this is going to be the battle now. Democrats against Democrats.

But Republicans have a smaller faction, but still there, of people who think that the whole MAGA movement needs to be stopped. Remember, they tried to make MAGA a negative word? All they did is sell more hats. Uh in friends with Democrats. I think that Stephen A.

Smith nailed it. I like when outsiders come in who don't do this every day and just look at the big picture. The problem with Democrats over the last two cycles is that they did not have any real competition. One thing about Trump, he had real competition. He had it again in 2020.

Even though he wasn't debating, he was fighting all these guys and women. Nikki Elliot. and others. Here's Stephen A. Smith, Cut 34.

They were willing to shove aside the wishes of American voters. They understood what the system entails. They wanted to bypass a primary. They wanted to bypass elements of the democratic process in order to ensure that their guy was in office instead of Donald Trump. And to me, when you've walked around as a party labeling Donald Trump an existential threat.

For years. For years and then A book comes out detailing how several people within the administration and within the Democratic Party may have been guilty of this instead of Trump. I find that to be incredibly alarming.

So, and that's the whole thing. Have a real fight and get a real winner. The last real fight was great: Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama. High end, well done. A lot of money, both sides.

A lot of charisma on one side, experience on the other. Tony was on WABC. Hey, Tony. Ryan Kilmeid, listen, when we look at the Joe Biden who's running the White House gate, my sort of a plumb line is Watergate. And Watergate was conspiracy.

And in Watergate, if you look at what happened, Uh There were AIDS Holderman and Ehrlichman, there were 50 people. This is from the White House Chronicles. 50 people were indicted, jailed, and it was all for conspiracy, you know, to hide things, the cover-up.

So, the timeline for that and the situation is different, but the principles are the same. I would leave Joe Biden out of this. I would look at the chiefs of staff. I would look at the authorities. What do they do illegal?

What do they do illegal? Not using the 25th Amendment is not illegal. You know, what do they do?

Well, I stepped up. You know, I just did my, you know, did my thing, and Joe Biden did or didn't do this, it'll be their word against theirs. I don't know what they did illegal using the auto-pentasign.

Some laws?

Okay, let's look into that. But I don't know what they did. They were just taking over for a president that should have been vacated from office.

So I just don't know. I mean, people are angry. Shows terrible judgment. But just don't elect these people anymore. And if you ever get in as a Democrat and you put these people around you, You you just you've done yourself a disservice and they'll never get uh confirmed.

But it is going to be interesting. And that's really what I'm going to talk about in my monologue. On Sunday. You know, and if you look at how bad things were for Democrats, you can think of these days when they had Clinton and Obama and they thought, wow, will Republicans ever win again?

Well, think about this. In 64, LBJ says, I'm not running. And then they end up having Hubert Humphrey run in 68. McCarthy was a communist. He's out.

So he runs and he loses to this guy named Richard Nixon. Nixon does so well, boring vice president. He wins almost every state in beating George McGovern. He gets involved in a scandal, allows Carter to come in. Ford almost beat him, even though the man that appointed him.

Ford Was riddled in scandal at a leave-in disgrace. And then it's Reagan for four years, and it's Bush for another four years, so 12 years. Right? I mean, that's where you talk about the wilderness. Democrats were totally out in the wilderness.

And Bush 41 was unbelievably qualified. And I think people just got a little fatigued of the party, not of him. But that's where they're at now. If this continues, if I look over there on the left, All I see is A lot of talent on the right. From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division.

It's Brian Killmeat. Hi, everyone. Thanks so much for listening. It is the final hour of the week here in the Brian Kill Meet Show, and what a week we've had. Tyrus will join me at the bottom of the hour.

I'm going to surprise him with some of the questions I'm going to ask him. I just got to warn him ahead of time, but it won't be anything he can't handle. I'm also going to be able to take some of your calls in the first half hour: 1-866-408-7669. We're waiting a press conference for Elon Musk. He's going to get his send-off, a formal send-off from President Trump, who then will go out to Pennsylvania to announce a new deal with Nippon and U.S.

Steel, which will result in thousands of jobs.

So that's going to be big news today. There's also some additional news. Pete Hegseth is over in Southeast Asia, meeting with a lot of leaders. He's going to be with Japan, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, and do a bunch of bylaws out there.

So that'll be cool. Also, SpaceX Rocket 9 will launch its eighth global positioning system. They continue to make their continuing, you know, they continue to go into space. With more satellites, which makes you understand why we can all carry around our own devices now to get anything anywhere.

So let's get to the big three. Number three. I remember one person said something like, Biden, like to me, where it was like, Biden won the presidency, but like Clinton the progressives won the transition. It wasn't just the direction that they set in policy, it was a lot of the personnel. Toxic, radioactive, pick.

A description of anyone associated with the Biden administration as questions mount about who was really in charge of the White House for four years before we were all saddled with the effects that we're living with now. Hearings and subpoenas are about to commence this summer. Number two.

So what Harvard has been doing is pro-terrorism, anti-American, and we shouldn't be using U.S. taxpayer dollars to be funding this type of anti-American activity. Uh, really? I agree. Trisha McLaughlin, the Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs for DHS, Harvard gets short-term legal lifesaver as the spotlight on their campus, administration, foreign students' policy, and anti-Semitism gets brighter and maybe dare I say blinding.

We look at Trump versus Harvard. Number one. One. He's bypassed the tariff laws to order tariffs, to pause them, to increase them, to waive them. Under the Constitution, which gives tariff authority to Congress, the President doesn't have that authority.

That is true. Court's getting the way again of President Trump's agenda, this time blocking tariffs.

Now there's been a stay, so they can keep them in place for now. Let's hope these new trade deals start coming in at a quicker pace as we look at a country without Musk doing Doge, and we'll see where that goes. Just to update you on what happened, a bunch of small businesses sued the federal government, saying you don't have the right to give these unilateral tariffs coming from the White House. And this international trade court, with three members, one of which was appointed by Trump, said, You're right, Trump does not have the right to do that. Immediately, they appealed the Trump administration, and the appeal stayed the court decision.

So they allowed to continue to put the tariffs on for now. But. What's significant? I'm dealing with Japan. I'm one-on-one.

I'm saying, listen, you got to get big tariffs if you don't come across. And they said, okay. And then all of a sudden, the court comes down and says, Trump, you have no ability to put tariffs on anyone. How do you think that trade deal is going to go with the EU, with Japan, with the Philippines, with Vietnam, let alone China? Not nearly as well.

I do have some reports as of last night. Japan is meeting right now. I hope they have a deal to announce. I think there's pressure to do it. Go ahead.

What is the holdup? I believe it's on cars. The EU is extremely motivated, and Canada to get a deal done. Guys, get it done. And if anything else, not that you're wasting and procrastinating, I'm not saying that, but there might be a push to resolve details that stop the announcement of agreement because of the court systems trying to play a role in President Trump's foreign policy.

They do have some other things they could do if the court decides that the president is not permitted to do all that. There is another act they could put in place from 1974 that would probably hold up. Up. But the meantime, Wall Street Journal says China is hailing our court ruling. Think about how galling this is, invalidating Trump's tariffs.

Now, they said that, and then quickly an appeals court stopped that. The trade representative, Jamison Greer, heard from countries around the world. On the ruling, and said they intend to continue negotiations. They are probably seeing how ridiculous this ruling is, and they understand that this administration is going to eventually win. I agree.

But it shows you the fight they're having. Also, the president just won a Supreme Court decision that says he can. Rescind. The special protective status of Haitians, Venezuelans. And Cubans Because hundreds of thousands will have to stay here because their country sucks.

If everybody could come here when their country goes awry, we would have five times the amount of people, nobody working, and they're all on the dole. Can't do that.

So we'll go over that. The other thing with the President of the United States, he's got three things happening at once. He wants to end the fighting in Gaza. He's got to do it the right way. They have a deal on the table.

Witkoff says ten A ceasefire for 45 days, 10 hostages released right away, 10 at the end of the 45 days. I'm not sure what the prisoner exchange is, but at this point, I wouldn't give up any. Number two is the Iranian deal. They push back through social media at the thought that we could have a framework for an agreement. Because in the statement, they said you can still enrich and you can still spend centrifuges.

There's no way. If we sign that deal, President Trump will lose two-thirds of his party and me. Let Iran take care of the job. The other one is Russia and Ukraine.

Now It looks like they picked a date, june second, to meet one-on-one with Ukraine. But among the people not buying it, General Jack Keene. Cut thirty nine.

Well, I'd be shocked if the Russians changed their maximalist demands, which is they want more territory than they occupy, they want to demilitarize uh Ukrainian military, they want a regime change uh in Ukraine, they want signatures by everybody involved that there be no NATO expansion, and the list goes on. All of those demands are really quite unreasonable. Yes, and they're trying to move with a massive offensive. They put 50,000 troops on the border. The Ukraine has also made some gains, which I find encouraging.

They're also working on their drones to get them go further distances. I love the new German Chancellor. I want to just say to this, Mr. President. You are all about leverage.

Would you tell Vladimir Putin and Lavrov, yeah, you can go ahead and you could screw us up and you screw around, and you can wait and have maximalist demands, as General Keene used that term. And you could say, I want NATO not to expand. I could say, Ukraine's got a 9,000-person military force, nothing but a police force. You could say you're going to go take land you haven't even stolen yet, the other stuff that has been stolen. But that means you don't want to deal.

Well, if you do do that and you use those demands, it shows you really don't want a deal, then in come the sanctions. And guess what those sanctions are like? mister President, you don't have to write it. The Senate wrote it. And guess what?

Democrats are on board to help you out here. And so was most of the House. He got eighty votes. It is veto proof. They put this forward and you hit.

So you tell Putin, guys, I got a motivated Congress is fed up with you. You better sign on to something deal and real. Or I'm going to tell Thune to put this into place. All right. They wrote it.

They really don't like you. I was your life preserver. I was the one taking political risks, giving you an off-ramp. And this is how you handle it. Cut forty.

What Putin has been counting on is that he believes the United States and Ukraine want a peace agreement and a ceasefire much more than they do. And I think that evidence is pretty clear now after many weeks. They're willing to talk, but they're not willing to negotiate anything that's realistic. Yeah, uh from what I've heard. Unless something happens, I don't know.

I mean, like I'm hearing these stories about what North Korea has done, and people laughed it off and said, What could North Korea actually do to help in the war effort? How about thousands of soldiers and a lot of artillery? And they did just that. They have North Korea did a ton, and Iran still doing a ton to help them out. They continue to get Hardware, as well as to build up their infrastructure to build their own military.

North Korea, one of the poorest, the Hermit Kingdom, one of the poorest in the world, does have a lot of ammo.

So Moscow received more than 12,000 North Korean troops, helped push them out of Kursk. I'm talking about the Ukrainians. And uh North Korea shipped uh munitions. Uh they also ship missiles. to key Ukrainian civil se to target uk key Ukrainian Uh civilian infrastructure.

While they steal children, they also gave them artillery shells too. Iran has done a ton. Ukrainian forces recently did advance. In Kurskohov area, and Russian forces recently advanced in northern Kharkiv, Oblast, and three other small towns. I think we should get them some long range missiles and put the Russians on their heels.

What do you think about what I think? one eight six six four oh eight seven six six nine. I'll get to some of the calls before we welcome in Taires. Also, when it comes to Iran, I would not be doing this deal. I let Israel go.

And believe me. Is Iran has a couple of friends. Pakistan, kinda. S they lost Syria. They got Russia.

They're not in the region. What do they like? Go Cutter deals with them because Cutter doesn't have an army. If Ryan wants to take Cutter, they could take Cutter.

So they gotta be kind in that neighborhood. I know they're not a perfect regime, but they also have to understand what neighborhood they're in. All right, you listen to the Brian Kill Me Child. Don't forget One Nation coming up Sunday at 10 p.m. Among my guests, Suge Knight from prison and Mark Halpern, who's not.

Don't move. Politics, current events, and news that affects you. Brian's got a lot more to say. Stay with Brian Kilmead. If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it.

You're with Brian Kilmead. We have a very bold and vibrant president in Joe Biden. The most difficult part about a meeting with President Biden is preparing for it. Because he is sharp, intensely probing, and detail-oriented and focused. The president has no impairment.

The president. You've never seen any. I don't know how many ways I can say this. I wish you could be in a room with him the way I often am, seeing how he is simultaneously focused on a big picture vision and very focused on details. Is he fit?

He's proven it. He is, and he can do the job. I think his experience has helped him be a great president. Really? That is Mayorkis eliminated for any job that you should be considering him for.

He's lying to you. What else is he lying about? And I would think Mayor Pete is done. He could grow a beard, he could act tough, he could say, open the schools. My goodness, what happened to the border?

Doesn't matter. You just lied to us again to be in a room with them.

Now, believe me, I'm going to keep that because you know what his next thing will be? I really didn't see him much. We didn't really have much interaction at transportation. I had no reason to run to the White House. But we're going to remember that he said you have to be in the same room with him, and this guy is so sharp, you better be prepared.

Everybody on down. There's going to be a problem with the Democratic Party. This is going to be the issue. What did you know and why didn't you say it? As opposed to the governor Brashiers of the world, the Governor Whitmer, who could say, I never talked to him.

And you could probably say, You're right. I mean, Why are you calling besides the, I think, a flood that hit Kentucky? He's going to say, I never talked to him. You're going to say, Wes Moore's going to say. Uh he's gonna come out enough to say when that bridge collapsed.

I saw I looked Joe Biden in the eyes. I could see there was nothing there. Or, you know, the few times I saw how old he was, the first time I really got a chance to see him, but I never really saw him after that.

So they might have an explanation. But for those other people who want a political future, Who are on the record? Praising them. They're done. They're finished.

They're through. I'm telling you. But you know who's going to finish him off? Not Trump, not J.D. Vance, not Marco Rubio, not going to be beat up by Stephen Miller.

Who's going to finish him off? Democrats have learned they got to have a real primary and they're going to start beating each other up. And it's going to be good for them, bad for Republicans if they end up with a good candidate. That is actually electable. If they decide to anoint, they'll end up with AOC, and she'll be fine, and she'll get big anti-oligarchy crowds.

But that'll be about it.

So, you know, the courts are the best stoppage to President Trump's agenda. And I think they're acting illegally. We just had another major court decision overturned by the Supreme Court. I think that when you tried to take tariff rules from the President of the United States, I think that's an issue. That's going to end up at the Supreme Court.

I find it hard to believe they're going to go against the President on that, as well as with what's happening over in Harvard. And what's happening uh what's happening over in uh Uh with the free speech as well as international students. Hey, let's go out to John, listen on the Fox News Radio app out in California. Hey, John. Good morning, Brian.

How you doing? Good. You want to talk about the sanctions on Putin? Should we do it? This is what I would do.

Far be it from me to give a recommendation to President Trump, who I think is doing a great job. What he should do, in my opinion, is start taking and whittling down on a weekly or bi-weekly basis that $300 billion that's just sitting there and say, listen, you come to the table seriously, we're going to start. 30 billion a week. Thank you. Great.

And we're going to give it to Ukraine. And then not only that, let's clamp down on these countries buying Russian oil. I still don't understand how anybody's buying Russian oil all these years while we're giving $300 billion to Ukraine. I don't understand that.

So the negativity towards something, a policy I agree with, by the way, but the negativity is you want to trust. The international financial system, regardless of whether you're a communist or dictatorship or democracy. You want to know that the dollar works and your money will be secure.

Now, Abhorrent behavior could result in this type. of action by Western countries like us and our allies, like NATO.

So if you do that, you're not going to put your money into it and it would help push people off the dollar. And that's what Brix is talking about with South Africa and Brazil and China, Pakistan, India. Russia.

So that's what they're talking about. But I say the negatives, I'm fine with that. You already took them off the Swift system. And what you do is that $300 billion, it's now going to Ukraine. I like the idea of doing it incrementally too, because let them know that if you blow up these negotiations, Things aren't gonna be good when you leave that room.

Things are going to be harder for Russia. James in Staten Island. Hey, James. Skim to me anyway. See what All right, let's go to hold off on that.

Um I believe that we were getting echo of our show. But we'll see where it goes. I'm also. Looking at these three things and I see they're all coming together now.

Now, it's true. Trump had nothing to do with this, nothing to do with Gaza, nothing to do with Iran, nothing to do with Russia and Ukraine, especially in Iran's situation. Even if the president didn't walk away from the last Iran deal, it would have been done anyway. In 10 years, it was up, which is bizarre. Do you believe that John Kerry and Barack Obama signed off on a deal with a terrorist?

Nuclear state that would have allowed them legally by agreement to go back to spinning centrifuges and enriching uranium at weapons level and still not violate the agreement. With all the sanctions lifted, they would be an economic engine because it's a highly educated population with huge oil reserves. If they were just able to refine and sell their oil, they'd be successful, let alone how they infiltrated Iraq and are taking some of theirs.

So that's just huge. And finally, before, and I'll talk about this. Uh with Uh Tyra Shortly. With the Democratic Party. The way they basically trolled us for four years, and you think, well, the laptop, the Russia hoax, and now Joe Biden.

For four years and just ripped us. If you bring things up, you don't like old people. He's sharp as ever. How dare you? F you if you don't believe it, Joe Scarborough.

Just know they're still lying. They're lying about what they knew. And they're lying about Joe Biden's health. They're lying about that he got cancer, they just discovered it. They're lying, I think, that 2014 is the last time he had a PSA test.

They're lying about him being healthy and this guy, Kevin O'Connor, not giving a cognitive test when we know they got all these Parkinson's experts trolling in and out to the White House.

So they're still lying about all this stuff. And you just know that when they get in front of the oversight committee, it's going to be the same thing. But the problem they're going to have if they go out and smugly refuse to answer questions is that the people that are bringing the questions up and got their facts are people from their side. Alex Thompson, Axios Leensleft, but not big time. Not certainly not conservative, and Jake Tapper, as left as it gets.

So you're arguing with your own side. That's why I find this so intriguing, and I'll talk about that on One Nation a little bit later. Tyrus is next. Radio that makes you think. This is the Brian Kill Me Show.

Tony Busby, the lawyer, came out. He's got 120 names. He's like, I got so many celebrities I'm gonna drop. I got huge money. Then he went after Jay-Z, and that did not work out well for him.

Jay-Z turned around and counter-punched him right in the mouth. And he dropped it. That guy's no longer allowed. He didn't realize he wasn't allowed to practice in New York.

So he's gone. All these big names we thought we, the only big name we've heard is Michael B. Jordan. And that's not for tending any freak offs. That's from when Cassie Ventura, the main witness here.

And did his acts girlfriend. You know, when she was broken up with him, she took off and she got to meet Michael B. Jordan and they started, you know, chit-chatting a little bit. That's the only name we've heard.

So, that is Billy Bush weighing in on the Hollywood situation, which is the P. Diddy trial taking place in New York, which has been going to go another week with the prosecution, then defense. And we're hearing about these freak offs and these crazy things and the abuse of women. But is he going to be guilty? And what is he going to be guilty of?

Are they overcharging? Are they organized in their prosecution? And what about this life? Tyrus joins us now, Fox Nation host, author of a book, Nuff Said, best-selling author said, and host of Maintaining with Tyrus, which is on Outkick. Tyrus, great to see you.

Always a pleasure.

So, do you know who I'm interviewing today? Uh me? Oh, that's true. Yeah. He's a very good answer.

Thank you. Sug Knight from prison. You gonna talk to Sug Knight from prison?

So I want to talk about this uh Diddy trial and the fact that one thing did come out. Surprised me, maybe not you, is that they were going to try to kill him. Their word was that he was in a diner. And according to one of the women who claimed to be abused and seems to be authentic, she said they found out everything got dropped as soon as they found out that Sugar Night was eating in a diner. And they got about eight guys and guns and they went to a diner and he was gone.

So he also has opinions, and I guess they have this huge rivalry going on. Uh well those of us who were I was bouncing clubs during that time and chasing football.

So I had a few interactions with Suge back in the day. And he wasn't as big as he thought he was. I'll just leave it at that. Right. But he tried to get to Snoop, right?

He tried to get to Snoop. We were in New Orleans. I'll tell you one story. We were in New Orleans, and Snoop was out there to support a concert. It was me, him, and his wife.

And it was just me as the bodyguard, and then we always had a brother by the name of Al. He's about your height. And you'd never see him. Unless you made a mistake. It was a decorated detective who was retired and working.

So And it was everybody was there and Snoop was making his rounds saying hello to everybody and being and uh lo and behold, Sug Knight showed up in the in the In the walkway of the arena. Should we also say that death row records signed Snoop and claimed to have discovered him? Yeah, I think, well, I think Snoop in. Snoop was coming up and he was I think it was uh him and um Warren G, we're young, and I think a lot of people want to take credit for discovering stuff. Bullying him, sure.

Intimidating him, a thousand percent. You know, Snoop was young. Uh, And I think, you know, between his experience, I mean, he's got a lot of wisdom now, but when you're young and trying to come up and basically starting with nothing, you probably sign a lot of contracts. It's a rough crowd. You deal with it.

Yeah, it's a rough crowd. And, you know, Snoop was never that guy. He never was like that. He's always been very humble, very family man-oriented guy.

So he didn't fit in with that lifestyle.

So those it would be tough for him. But Shuge was attempting to bully him and shake down because there have been many stories about him shaking down artists, you know, Kate messing with Casey and Jojo, usually little guys. Vanilla Ice, too. Yeah, Vanilla Ice, that story is well known. But on this day, he tried to roll up on Snoop.

And I just, my job is to not allow that to happen.

So uh I I would not hit until I was given the okay. But I was in position to just walk right up on him face to face.

Well, actually, chest to face.

So you're that much bigger than him. Yeah, he's like, comes up to my nose, maybe. Six foot. And. I was ready to do what I needed to do.

And I'm not talking. That's not my job. It's just if you make a move, and he started, I assuming he came to talk to me about something with music, but all he could come up with was that he wanted to help and donate on the youth football team. And really, yeah. And Snoop said, no, we're good.

And then he was like, hey, can you? Do something with This guy, and he's like, he's got a mind of his own.

So it was very cordial, respectful. And then him and his lackey, they went their way and we went ours. Do you worry about guns after that? Because that's the great equalizer, right? I can't beat this guy, but I can't.

I was not worried about guns because I knew Al was just. Hanging in the corner. And that would be the last mistake they made. You can't. When you're bodyguarding, if you're gonna choose that path.

If you're afraid of things like that, you really shouldn't do it. And you'll find out real quick if you have it or not. And there were some situations in body garden with Snoop, like when we were in, I think it was on a Russia tour, Croatia area, and a guy wanted to come in the VIP, and he opened his jacket and he had a 45, and I still wouldn't let him in. And I remember some guys in the band going, what are you doing? You could have got shot.

Like, you should have just let him in. You should have just let him in. And I was like, what do you think my job is? Like, you know, besides me making jokes in the bus and stuff, but my, what do you think my job is? Like, and they don't, sometimes you don't understand that.

Most bodyguards never have to be in situations like that, but it's always there.

So let me ask you the mindset. Like, I like to get his opinion. Evidently, he said, I don't even know we're rivals. I don't want to see him go to jail because of his kids. That's what he's quoted as saying on one on on one of the other channels.

But these guys seem to have a long rivalry. Yeah, no, I um that there was this thing in uh I remember uh I think it was uh they were doing a thing with uh Bobby Brown was doing uh Make it a Comeback and I think he was signed with Ja Rule or something like that and he was gonna do a uh do a video on the stage. Uh all We Need is a Stage, I think was a song, and they were gonna do it in a on Capitol Records in LA. And for a while Shogi had this thing where you had to pay a tax. To shoot music videos in LA and stuff.

And uh, Diddy was out there and uh Diddy was actually trying to get into the club, but we had uh no smoking rule in the VIP and I wouldn't let him in. And I remember his people were like this, and I remember looking at him going, man, and my buddy was like, How don't you like him so much? I said, Because he's got baby teeth. Never trust a guy with baby teeth. He's got those little teeth, he's got dolphin teeth, whatever you want to call it.

Really? And yeah, I just didn't like him. I didn't like him. And he was, and he kept like, you know who I am, you know, and all that stuff. And I'm like, I don't care.

And his bodyguard wasn't big enough.

So there was. I never had much use for For him, the music was not a good idea. Did you know this behavior? And it's I mean, we're watching it. Besides the applesauce on hamburgers, did you know how abhorrent what was going on over there?

No, because you just don't, when you don't involve yourself in those situations, you know. You never, I would never allow, not that Snoop would ever want to be a part of anything like that, but I would never allow him to be in that situation, any one of my clients. We've been at, I remember Paris Hilton had a party at the Playboy Mansion or the Playboy thing, and we went, I brought Snoop there. He was an invited guest, and it was Fonsworth and all these celebrities and stuff. And then around midnight, it started to get weird.

A bunch of dudes dressed up like Playboy Bunnies started coming out. I looked at Snoop, like, You ready? And he laughed. He said, Let's go.

So, I mean, it was always, I never allowed him to be in that situation because I think bodyguards that. come forward and and Tell You had an opportunity there. You're still a man. You still know what the laws are. And if your client is doing something wrong, You being just going with it is just as bad.

If you see a bad act, if your client is being horrible or physically abusive to women and you just stand there because of a job, shame on you. And so you have to consider a lot of the sources that are talking. Is b You know, the racket here.

So, should I not believe a lot? Should we all not believe a lot what we're reading? I think you should consider the sources. I'm not, by no means, am I taking up for Diddy at all? I personally despise the man.

But I also think that when you have people who have shady pasts as well, are all willing to come forward, but they always kind of leave out their part in it. I think you have to take it with a grain of salt. I'm a little concerned because what we're. What the public is getting caught up with is apparently he was a horrible boyfriend. Horrible.

I don't know if that's a game. Beats people, torches. Yeah. Extortion. But they're trying to put a racketeering case together, and I think that's where it's Getting a little You keep hearing these horrible stories of what he's done to people, and then you have to ask the question.

And again, you hate saying this because everybody should be heard. Everyone should be heard. A man, woman, whatever, if they said something had been wrong to them by somebody else. But then you have to ask the question: Why did you keep going back? Why did you, you know, you know, like you have to ask those questions.

And it's, and, um, you know, they do, they do say they have psychologists up there that say it's that cycle of abuse that you feel like on some level you deserve it, or some feel as though they, they're going to, he's going to go, she's going to find, he's going to find her. Yeah, but how do you prove that in court? I guess that's the question is like, because they're going to say, oh, no, look at this text. Look at this. She was a willie.

You know, and again. And they are. Yeah, and they are. And that's where the thing is, like, it becomes a great, it's a tough call for a juror. I have another question for you, especially reading your story.

or with your really tough for challenging upbringing. And I'm looking at Sug Knight, and I'm just saying, okay, I got to find out about his backstory. This guy was a two-sports star in football. And in track, so you know how much dedication, you know, this dedication to track, you can't just wing it, you know.

So you're running. And then he's playing football at UNLV, so he's got to be a top pro you know, you got to be around your age.

So he's a football player at UNLV scholarship. And then how do you end up extremely intelligent? It's true. The brother is smart. The borderline genius.

And actually, there was a I was originally up to play him in the NWA movie. I was it came down to meeting the other guy, yeah. And then there was a movie that was in production called Lions and Lambs, which was basically an autobiography of Shug Knight, how he rose to power, and I was cast in that. Uh Basically, the bottom ended up falling out, I think, when the dude got run over by the truck or whatever. They decided to move away from the city.

Which brings me to the other thing: how do you go to prison and then be out for a year or two and then run over someone with a truck? Yeah, just. In doing Background to learn about his character and stuff like that. And it was like he had a lot of people that supported him. He's he's he uh he Seek doubt.

The life of crime and stuff. He didn't need it. Is that like that? He didn't need it, I think, which is sad because a brother like Suk Knight, if he had put. His resources in intimidating and strongholding into just being, he probably would be, he probably would be in some form of leadership right now in this country.

He had that type of appeal, but he was a mass manipulator and he was more concerned with controlling people and being, quote, a gangster. We used to call him a studio gangster because he usually was just being a gangster in Hollywood, which is a safe place. And the most dangerous thing about Shuge was not Shuge. It was the young brothers that he had filled their heads with delusions of grandeur. Those are the guys who would shoot you, shoot at you.

Those are the guys who would attack you because they think they're earning stripes for him.

So he was very good about always, he was very clever about always keeping his hands. Uh clean.

So Snoop bought Death Row Records, right? Yeah. And now Sugar Knight wants to kill him again? I mean, when you're on, he's in for life, I believe. He's got 28 years or something.

He'd get paroled in another seven, I think. Yeah. And he's not in a great health. I don't know if he has the pull. I don't know because usually you have to have money and things like that to still do those things.

So, I mean, if he's still making threats, it makes sense. But Snoop has a great security team, and I think if you are making threats from the penitentiary, that's definitely going to affect your parole.

So, you know, and he can't, and Suge likes to find her things in life.

So, this has probably been a real, real hard, it's been real hard for him in there. I've heard some stories. I was supposed to meet with him to talk about the movie and stuff, and then at the last minute, when things fell through, and I decided to step back because it was getting a little choppy.

So, it was interesting. We were all set to do this, right? It took like two months, so we were all set to do it. And all of a sudden, yesterday we got a call. He needs to get paid.

Yeah, a thousand percent. Yeah, he's going to try to shake you down.

So we said, no, we don't pay people. No, no.

So then he goes, I'll do it anyway. Yeah, of course he does because no one's listening to him. Right. Yeah. Because back in the day he could the the media would pay him two thousand dollars or whatever the hell for his story.

Now he's like, you know, but the he's always that's how you know when someone's not rehabilitated, is they're still doing the same things that got their ass put in there in the first place. And so he's still trying to work the angle. Let's just say this. If a parole officer is listening to us right now, let's just say his people ask. Maybe he's people.

You know what? I don't. Here's the thing. You are the perfect guy to do this interview. Because you are, you have worked with some of the greats.

And you know BS when you see it, and you're not afraid to call it out.

So, this is going to be a very, and you can't talk slick to an oil can. There's nothing he can say to you that you have not seen or heard. And I'm just curious when you know he's going, taking you down the rabbit hole, if you're going to be like, hey, tricks for kids, man. I don't play bunny games. These are the questions.

I'm going to use him as an expert in the daily trial, which has got worldwide interest. And I also want to find out the mindset of a guy that goes to prison. Is out for a year, feels freedom, maybe right. And next thing you know, he's taking his car and running over a rival. I mean, how the hell?

How can you be a genius?

So understand that him and Diddy. Uh were rivals. And um You can't expect anything he says to be Anything but that about Diddy. Still, yeah, still. No, because there's still that war, you know.

How did he get so much money? Diddy, how I mean, he's not a good rapper, right? He had no, no, Diddy had people write for him. Yeah, okay. He got Biggie Smalls is the key to everything that he has, and I believe that they kept the library and they kept the publishing.

I'm not sure of all, I don't know how much of what Chris Wallace's family got, but um, he built an empire off of the phenomenon that is Biggie's. But now we're hearing all kinds of stuff that apparently that the whole Biggie identity was a guy in Alabama, the big papa song was, you know, so they took songs and did this or whatever.

So, but as far as storytelling and performing goes, Biggie was one of the best. You know, and then you have on the other side of the West Coast, you had the Tupac situation.

So, the two of them know a lot about what happened in that situation for sure.

So, it'll be interesting to see who says what, but again, understand you have one person who's in for pretty much doing very similar things. Is going to give you his insight on the other guy? A couple more minutes with Tyrus. By the way, he doesn't need notes. This is life experience for him.

I have like 20 pages of notes. I said Tyrus just said hello. Back in a moment. Learning something new every day on the Brian Kill Me Show. Breaking news, unique opinions.

Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show, sponsored by Previgen. Previgin made for your brain. Hey, we are back. Tyrus is here, and not only do you see him on Gutfeld every night writing books, but also see him on stage. Yeah, we got the live events coming up.

Yeah, I saw them last night. What I love they do on Gutfeld is they put them underneath you. Yep.

So you don't have to necessarily refer, but people can see where to see you on stage, which goes on. I mean, it is the ultra entrepreneurial effort. And do you know when you're next going to be up? I got a little break. We start, the tour kicks off July 7th in Traverse City, Michigan, and then it's all in Michigan, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, a lot of Texas, man.

I'm Texas out, Alabama. I'm sorry. No one needs to hear the music. The world is mine. You know, Alabama, Florida, Alabama, Ohio, Kansas City, South Carolina.

List goes on and on. Oregon, like I'm all over. It starts, kicks off in July. We're going to make a lot of towns. I see a lot of people.

People, so I'm excited about it. And you said that you find out now, like, people don't necessarily show up because of the wrestling. It's really no, I don't really talk about wrestling in politics. It's just about life and being funny. I got so much material on myself that I really have to go into it.

It's a stand-up comedy show, and you know, there's a. Yeah. It's about having fun, and it's like in that Red Fox Don Rickles thing where no nobody's safe, and that's a lot of fun, and And I never know what's going to happen. No show is really quite the same. Right.

So people are, I get people who go to a lot of different shows. They come to like three or four different shows, and they're like, How do you always have something different to talk about? I said, Because I can't remember what I usually said on the last show.

So. You kind of write down stuff after you say it, Gutfell, because a lot of times you get into material. Yeah, no, most of my stuff that funny stuff comes off the top of my head. And if I. think it's particularly funny or To me, which is, I'm a very tough critic on myself, then I'll incorporate and hang on to it.

The nice thing about having a photographic memory is remember the important stuff.

So it's not, I can't save it. But it saves the worst thing. It's fantastic for acting. Yeah, it's great because one of the things that I've always gotten high raise for is I never need to, I never forget my lines. He's Tyrus.
