Hi, everyone.

So glad you're there. It's the Brian Kilmey Show. I can't believe this has been an extremely busy week. Later in the show, at a different hour, we're going to have the interview I just was able to do with President Donald J. Trump from the Oval Office right before, just hours before his big meeting.

Griff Jenkins at the bottom of the hour, and Charlie Hurt here in studio. And before we say hello to Charlie, just a couple of things. We know the president's got his meeting at 3 o'clock today with Mom Dami. I got that. He also has a very impactful 28-point piece plan.

It's really in Zelensky's headquarters now to take a look at and work with. That is really picking up. That is really picking up steam. We'll talk about it, but let's get to the big three. Number three.

And I guess my message to the American people who are still feeling like things are unaffordable, who are still feeling like things are rough out there, is: look, we get it. We understand that there's a lot more work to do. And the thing that I'd ask for the American people is a little bit of patience. There you go. Economy will make or break the midterms.

The Trump team gets positive numbers and asks for patience, saying the good times are about to come roll in. Do you believe that? Number two. In the old days, if you said a thing like that, that was punishable by death. Yeah, but you're not saying you're not threatening them.

A lot of people are interpreting there's a threat in their security. I'm not threatening them, but I think they're in serious trouble. I would say they're in serious trouble. Treason. Maybe not, maybe so, but inexplicably, inexplicable and irresponsible.

Yes, for sure. I am talking about the Democratic tape calling for military members to rise up against Trump orders that they deem illegal. Really? The White House erupted, and you just heard the president tell me how he felt and clarified how he felt about that, what he believes was a treasonous tape. Number one.

I said, what does that mean? Turn the volume up. Does that mean let's go at it? Yeah. I don't think so.

I mean, he was very nice in calling, as you know, and we're going to have a meeting. I guess we meet at 3 o'clock today. And I think it's going to be quite civil. We'll find out. Yes, we will.

Mom Diamond meeting at the White House as the socialist meets the capitalist. Will the two give peace a chance, or will we have an Oboe office meltdown? Let's ask Charlie Hurt that. Charlie, I know you're getting set for Fox and Friends weekend, eight hours of television. Your thoughts about what do you think?

Can I get you on the record now hours before the meeting? Yeah. No, I think it's going to be, I hope the whole thing is open press. I want to see every minute of it. I hope at no point do they usher out.

You indicated it would be.

Okay, good, because I want to see every minute of it. You know, obviously, you've got two people who have been talking a lot of smack for a long time. And we know that Trump is the kind of guy that talks smack outside and inside the room. Especially if you challenge him. Yeah.

And the question is whether Mom Dani does. But I could also see him, and based especially considering what he told you this morning, I could see Trump sort of taking a more fatherly approach with him and sort of sitting down and saying, listen, this is a city that I love. This is a city that made me who I am. This is a city that I helped build the skyline. I want what's best for the city, and I'm going to try to work with you.

But these are some really, really crazy things that you're talking about, and it's not going to work.

So I could sort of see it being, I know that. You know, unlike you know, so much of politics is two people who are being completely dishonest with each other and just trying to score points. I think that this is a situation where, with Donald Trump, he may be opposed to a lot of the policies of Mom Dani. But he genuinely wants what's best for the city, and he wants to find a way to work with him. And so you could see a lot that it's easy to find common ground if that's the approach.

Right, it would be. But one thing I did bring up to him, and you'll hear later, is I said he said flat out, I'm not going to cooperate with ICE like Eric Adams, dude. That's not going to work. It's going to be a problem. And he does want to take on the president.

People like him. He cited in his victory speech that he said that the problem is the people like Donald Trump. That's a rock and a hard place. You're not going to be able to negotiate around not enforcing the immigration laws as they are. And Donald Trump has the stronger hand on that.

And I get it. A lot of Republicans get squeamish about it, but that is what people voted for. And it's a pretty, if you find yourself defending the notion that you're enforcing laws that are duly enacted, that's a pretty good position to be in as a politician. Unfortunately, far too many of our politicians are afraid to. You know, they don't have much of a spine when it comes to that.

Here's a little of Mom Dami and Trump going at it, cut four. You're the mayor. will use their power. To reject Donald Trump's fascism. Yeah.

We don't need a communist in this country, but if we have one, I'm going to be watching over him very carefully on behalf of the nation. My administration. would be Donald Trump's worst nightmare. With a communist in church, look, you just go back. A thousand years.

I mean, it's been done many times, a thousand years. It's never worked once, so it's not going to work now either. Donald Trump! Since I know you're watching. Yeah.

I have four words for you. Turn the volume up. If you want to see what Congressional Democrats wish to do to America. Just look at the result of yesterday's election in New York, where their party installed. A communist says the mayor.

of the largest city in the nation.

So that's a little the sparring.

So I asked him about the turn the volume up, and here's what he said.

So Donald Trump. Since I know you're watching. I have four. words for you. Turn the volume up.

So it was a little bit of an in-your-face one at a time. He should usually, after a victory speech, be kind of magnanimous. Your thoughts on that.

Okay.

Well, I was hitting them a little hard too, in all fairness. I was, you know. hard to be totally friendly toward the opponent. Yeah, his opponent wasn't. He had some interesting opponents.

But he ran a good race. I I don't know exactly what he means by turn the volume up, because turn the volume up He has to be careful when he says that to me. Right, because he can act, he has a big omegaphone. Yeah, he does. And yeah, you know, I always sort of look at this, it's a little bit like, you know, when you have two dogs that are barking through a fence and then they're like snarling and snapping, and then you open the gate, and then they're suddenly calm and they want to be like friends.

I think that we could wind up seeing a little bit of that today. Yeah, like you said earlier on w how Mamdani approaches it. Um does he go in there looking to Find a way to get help from the federal government. for New York. And if he does, then I think he'll w wind up with a very cordial meeting.

Yeah, uh when they go in front of the press show The question's going to be direct. You said this about you and you said this about and if they're going to spin, they'll spin. But you saw how awkward it gets because he brings MBS out there and they're asking about Khashoggi and they're asking about nine eleven. And they asked the president about other things like Epstein. And then that gets, what are you bringing up Epstein for?

So there's the unscripted moment in that Oval Office where you know people are going to be almost baiting him. I mean, if you're a New York Post reporter, it's your obligation to say. No, no, no. It can't be a love fest. It can't be allowed to be a love fest.

From the press. Right. Everybody has to be reminded of all of the very stark differences in their opinions. And, you know, New York City is, it's not just the largest city in America. It is the financial capital of the world.

And you have a full-blown committed. This is not some like, you know, back-of-the-envelope socialist who's never thought about these things. When you, you know, he talks about, you know, the. He is a committed socialist. He talks, you know, the idea of government-run grocery stores, free buses, all of this.

Freezing rent. Yeah. There's a reason nobody does this here because it doesn't work. And New Yorkers are like the one thing that they have to have, things have to work.

So, this is what worries me most. Just as an American, I don't care about politics in this situation. Is that their goal? Is for these landlords and these building owners to walk away. They're going to go, really?

You're going to make me freeze the rents. You're not going to let I'm going to leave these empty. And then, if you leave these empty, I'm eventually going to put them up for sale. I'll take a loss. And then the city acquires that building and they become streamlined, and it looks like Yugoslavia under Tito.

Which of course is the problem that the city has as right now. you know, rentals or whatever, but the owners don't want to have anything to do with it because of of all of these Democrat policies. Look, Mom Dani is not a rejection of Republican ideas or mainstream normal governing ideas. Mom Dani is a rejection of decades of Democrat leadership in in the in the city. And It's not working.

And I understand when young people look around and they say, I can't afford this. I don't know how anybody affords to live in a place like this. But they're not the result of free market. It's the result of heavy-handed. Democratic leadership.

Across the government.

So, I had some of these, the most successful commercial real estate people on the show just to be experts, because I'm not. And one of the things they say: if you actually want to bring prices down, get rid of these regulations that make me put that into the rent and make me charge for this, not commercial, this is residential, I should say, because I have to leave a lot of my apartments empty because you tell me I can't raise the rent.

Well, then I can't fix those apartments, so I am better off not having those apartments and taking the loss on tax reasons. And then, in the best case scenario, where you have a block of residential houses or buildings that are. You know what they're waiting for because they're first of all, they're empty right now, and their only hope is that they manage to get enough of them together so that they can build a high rise and put uh and but then it becomes business and you end up losing even more housing.

So, everything that every single one of these policies undermines the effort that we all care about, which is making it affordable to live. anywhere. whether it's here or where I'm from. And it's it's it's It's haywire here.

So, Charlie, who's coming up? Do you know on the weekends? Do you have anybody you could promo or everybody to promo? Clay Travis is going to be here.

Okay.

That's going to be fun. Jen Hale, we're going to talk about football. Do you know much about like the tackle? Yeah, yeah, not the round football. It really bothers me that everyone keep the Fox Sports voiceover guy keeps promoting all the big games and they don't bring up the Giants Lions.

Just because the Giants are two and nine. And their quarterback has a concussion. There's no reason to, and the Lions are coming off a controversial loss. There's no reason not to think the Giants have a shot. Right.

I'm going to ask Jen Hale about this, and we're going to get to the bottom of that. And I'm going to invoke your name when I do. If you don't mind. Because actually, I don't remember a team losing that much that I look forward to watching. They are so much closer than their record indicates.

They have blown. Games that I couldn't believe. I mean, they blow a game to Dallas. They blow that 18-point lead in the fourth to Denver. They just blew another lead this past weekend.

It looked like they were coasting to victory. See, I like to lose big. If I'm going to lose, just so you get the first-round pick and it's over.

Well, also, just be just kind of be memorable for being just a massive loser. Who wants to be like a tiny loser? That's it. No, you could look at the Giants' record and say big loser. They fired their coach.

But I find that a little disappointing. But I look at the Jets, I know they got so far to go. I look at the Giants and I think they're a lot closer. I'm curious to see how they're going to end the season. Because their best player is playing around at the WWE.

Did you see this? Yeah. Scatterboom. Shows up at the WWE with a, he had a dislocated ankle, the most horrific injury possible. He's supposed to be rehabbing, and he goes to the WWE and starts play fighting with these guys.

I'm like, what is going on? What could go wrong? And they let him go, let him do it. Yeah, what could go wrong?

So, you know. And then I hear, I hear, and this is just between us, don't repeat it. But I hear that Brian Kilmead's gonna be on the show. This weekend. I'm hoping to go on.

It's a financial situation. It's how much money is it going to be? Are we confirming right now? We're confirming. I'm on.

You asked me.

So you picked the topic, Charlie.

Okay.

And I just got to make sure to let everybody know. We're going to talk about the Giants. One Nation. No, we could do that. Yeah.

That'd be great. One Nation at 10 o'clock on Sunday. And the other thing is, what made America great? Five new episodes. Took us a year to shoot.

Nice. It's not one of those things where you voice it over. Like, I did Field of Valor, which all the credit goes to the producers. I just voiced it over. Right.

Because that is former athletes, athletes that need to fight in the world. They want you to do like intonation correctly. You have to take a bunch of takes for it. Yeah, intonation underappreciated. Yeah.

And but for what made America great, I did all these shoots. I felt so bad. I'm doing Washington's Crossing at the Delaware. You know the story, right?

So it's freezing.

So Washington's been beat in every single clash, including almost losing his entire army in New York. and he gets out and he's got to go on Christmas, weekly. Yes, he's got to go across the Delaware with left of his troops in freezing weather in the snow. And after he crosses the Delaware through icebergs, he has to get out and go fifteen miles on foot. Here are the issues.

They have thin what's left of their thin what's left of their uniforms, and many of them have no shoes. No shoes.

So I'm out there with a suit and an overcoat and I'm com and I'm with gloves and I'm complaining. And I go, wait a second. I go, guys, it is so freaking cold. I gotta I go, what am I talking about? I'm talking about Washington Crossing and they had nothing on.

They didn't know what gloves were. Yeah. So while carrying muskets and and you can't get your ammo and the gunpowder can't get wet. And you're up against the greatest military on the planet. Yes.

So there's no. And what they did is they hired the Hessians, who are professional fighters.

So they said, and this is another thing, we didn't go in in this, but I did a sitting on the spies. There's a thought that the spies went in there, let themselves get captured, and go, yeah, that army's shot. They're not going to be doing anything. Put their guard down, it's Christmas. And no one ever thought they were going to come.

What they did is they surprised them. Yeah. And they win. And that becomes, wow, we can do this. Then they f have success in Trenton.

A little bit later, Saratoga, and everything changes around. But Washington's Crossing, Gettysburg, FDR Museum. Uh with NORAT. We go inside NORAT. You are our Ken Burns.

I like to think so. Yeah. A little bit more handsome. Way, way, way more. Yeah, way more handsome.

Thanks for saying that, Charlie. Yeah. America, we will attack you on Christmas morning. That's the message. Yeah, don't ever drop your guard.

Maduro, heads up, pal. We're coming. And think what we'll do on Thanksgiving Day. Oh, no. Yeah.

Especially when you don't celebrate it. Right. It's just an American holiday. That wouldn't be a real sneak attack. That would be a self-sneak attack.

That's why you have to go to war college. I'm going to send you to Sleepaway War College Camp 6 to 10, Saturday and Sunday. Charlie, thanks so much. Good to see you. Keeping you informed, engaged, and always a step ahead.

It's Brian Killmead. Welcome back everyone. Just a quick reminder of what Made America great is now. I think number two on Fox Nation. Hopefully you guys will watch it.

Fox Nation did an unbelievable job producing it. We went to every shoot, did every interview. And I just think if you want to get another slice of our past, what makes us so great, I think you'll enjoy it. I think I'm up to 65 episodes of What Made America Great, examples that we have to reacquaint ourselves with, and you know why. Because we're coming up on year 250, even though you would argue that 249 is just as important as we celebrate.

as we celebrate. Uh the 1775 uh Before the Declaration of Independence, but the war really started. Also, I did the, yes, so we did Washington's Crossing. Gettysburg FDR Museum as well as NORAD. We go inside the mountains of Colorado to see how America would survive after a nuclear attack and the headquarters and what comes out of there.

Put it this way, the producers did such a good job. The guys at NORAT Or the headquarters of the men and women at NORAD said, Where did you get this footage? We have footage of when they were digging out the mountain. That they didn't even know existed. That's how great our producers are.

And don't forget One Nation, amongst my guests under Tom Cotton, Mike Waltz is going to be there. Walter Isaacson will be with us, and the great Carly Shimpkis will be there.

So hopefully, everyone will have time to join me then. When we come back, Griff Jenkins on the other side. We'll talk about immigration, what's happening, talk about what's happening on Fox and Friends weekend, and so much more. You listen to the Brian Kill Me Show. Don't move.

Our laws are clear. You can refuse illegal orders. You can refuse illegal orders. You must refuse illegal orders. That was a traitorous statement.

That was a horrible thing to do. I believe they broke the law very strongly. I think it's a very serious violation of the law. I know Todd Blanche seems to be looking into it. Your assistant deputy or your assistant.

Well, I think Pete Heckseth is looking into it, too. I know they're looking into it militarily. I don't know for a fact, but I think the military is looking into it, the military courts.

So, the President of the United States, a short time ago, you're going to hear the whole interview next hour. Griff Jenkins with us now. Griff, that tape, I was stunned by it. I always thought I was actually let down. Because if you told me the view Okay, we're talking about they should disobey orders.

All right. The squad had a press conference and say, I'm calling on the military to disobey orders.

So, extremists, you know. But when you have Mark Kelly and Jason Crowe, who's Green Beret I think Green Brett. Army Ranger. Army Ranger, okay, my bad. And then two Slack and CIA and then a few other military veterans.

That was the last bastion of non-political action you thought that you had, unless you're running against somebody. But just to go ahead and do a tape unsolicited and give a message to a million men and women serving, you can disobey what you perceive to be unlawful orders. You know, so first of all, congratulations on an amazing interview with President Trump. That's great stuff, and can't wait to hear more of it throughout the show. But I'm so glad you raised this because I feel very strongly about making the observation that a guy like Jason Crowe, who was an Army Ranger, served in the 82nd Airborne when we were invading Iraq.

And I was there with Colonel Ollie North in those years during the invasion of 2003, 4, 5, 6, 7, and on. And Jason Crowe could not cite a specific example of what Trump order is illegal that he was talking about in that video with Martha McCallum. And that matters because during when he was an Army Ranger, getting the bronze star. In Iraq, serving over there, from the time the war started in 2003 to 4, 5, 6, 7, we had to take Ramadi, had to take Fallujah. You had the rules of engagement, the ROE were changing.

I was out with Marine units in Fallujah in 2006 when we literally were out with eyes on enemy combatants, and yet a lawyer in the Pentagon at one in the morning said, No, you can't call an airstrike. It's near civilian areas. And we had in the talk and in the area where the commanders were making decisions whether to bring in an airstrike or not, they were really struggling and grappling with whether or not the rule of engagement would be in defiance of law and the way the ROE was changing.

So my point is that Jason Crumb knows more than anybody and should really be ashamed of the fact that you're going to place this doubt, this second guessing in a military commander out there now carrying things out. He well knew. Knows what kind of impact a video like that would have. And I think that that's something that people should lean in on because putting doubt in a mid-level, a major out there, a lieutenant colonel out there, making major decisions, that is not what we're doing. You know whose idea it was?

Alyssa Slackin. CIA. CIA. But I want you to hear a little bit more of the exchange because he did come out and say treason punishable by death. And it was it's he put death threats on lawmakers.

Listen.

Well, if you look at sedition, if you look at uh, you know, that type of that's a form of A very strong form of being a traitor. It's a terrible thing to say. I must tell you, I heard it. And I thought it was some kind of a comedy situation. I thought there were c you know, it was some kind of a skit.

And 'Cause I couldn't believe that they'd say it. And I watched Democrat congressman and one Democrat senator yesterday on one of the shows uh didn't even want to discuss it. They said, Whoa, don't get me into that one. They don't want to get into the that is a really serious charge. I I'll tell you what, what they said is and it was, I mean, I don't know about the modern day things 'cause, you know, modern day is a lot softer, but in the old days, if you said a thing like that, that was punishable by death.

Yeah, but you're not saying you're not threatening them. A lot of people are interpreting there's a threat in their security. I'm not threatening them, but I think they're in serious trouble. I would say they're in serious trouble. Yeah, exactly the point.

They're in trouble. But when you talk about sedition, you talk about traitor, the uniform code of military justice is very different than our legal courts that we think of. And so if there is a commander that's now felt some second guessing that doesn't carry something out under Secretary of War Heg Seth's department, you know, you could have a commander in the middle of his career that will be absolutely derailed because of that second doubt. I'm in. I'm at the airport in Kabul.

And I'm told, don't go outside the wire and go save people that have helped you or Americans that are living in Afghanistan because the whole thing's falling apart. Do I break the rules, go under the wire and go save people? Or do I say, if I follow this rule, if I go if I go and invade, if I pull out of Afghanistan right now, this whole thing's going to collapse. My unit's not going anywhere. Or General Milley hears how ridiculous the order is to evacuate and how few troops are going to be left.

Instead of putting his four stars down and go, I can't do this.

Now he says, I'm going to do it because I'm not the president.

So there are so many questions you just put in everybody's mind. And the last thing you want is doubt in the battlefield.

So you want some doubt as someone drone operator is taking out a drug ship or drug boat leaving Venezuela.

Well, I don't want to do this. I don't really know if I feel right about this. That's what he wants.

So listen to Jon Kiracow, former CIA guy, cut fourteen. This is right out of the CIA playbook. This is exactly what we were trained to do in those years that we were getting ready to go into the field. You're trained to destabilize. You're trained to make people distrust each other.

And here it is playing out on Capitol Hill. How ironic is it that when I blew the whistle on the CIA's illegal torture program, it was the Democrats who put me in prison? And now they want people to stand up because this president is the threat to democracy? Please, the hypocrisy just makes me shake my head. And Slotkin was one who came up with this, and she's the CIA.

That's what he was building on. Yeah, he's basically accusing her of a psyops operation, which CIA does. But you know, to your point, it's so important about the sowing of doubt. The most fundamental basic Place, the military takes young men and women and turns them into trigger pullers and teaches them that when they have an order to carry out and execute the mission, remember, complete the mission, Charlie Mike, they will pull the trigger or carry out whatever mission that is without a second doubt. And this is striking right at that foundation.

It's the building block of the strength of our military. And, you know, Slotkin clearly doesn't seem to either recognize that or care.

So I was stunned by that. I mean, we're getting a lot of traction. I don't know if this is what they wanted. Maybe they felt as though the socialists and Bernie Sanders and AOC are getting all the publicity. The so-called.

Centered, and I don't think they're any more centered. Mark Kelly, I thought, I always think he's an astronaut, military guy. He's a guy who's going to be reasonable. He's not. He's just as.

Politically oriented as anyone.

So now you can't even think to yourself: well, if you have that military in the background, you'll move to the middle. I don't think you can count on anything like that.

Well, and also, you know. To your point about aside from sowing doubt in military members now about carrying out orders, it is intended. It kind of reminds me a little bit, and I think this is a fair analogy. Remember when 50-plus former Intel officers signed on to the Russia propaganda letter, of course, the Russia hoax, which turned out they knew it wasn't true, right? But it accomplished its mission, which was to sow doubt in the American people.

So now with a video like that, you sow doubt in the American public's views that these drug boats being taken out in the Caribbean may not be legal or anything else they want the American people to start to doubt. Have you had a chance to look at what they're saying is a 28-point plan for peace in Ukraine? You know, we've got on Fox and Friends weekend this weekend, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and I've started to look at that 28-point peace plan. It appears that Steve Witkoff really did gain a lot of ground in talking about exactly how it would be carried out. One of the parts that seems to Giving a little bit of a marriage.

Yeah, sure. I mean, Ukraine can be assured that Russia won't simply resume the war at a later date. Ukraine's sovereignty will be confirmed. That's the goal. A comprehensive non-aggression pact between the nations.

That really went well with Stalin and Hitler. And by the way, I thought we had non-aggression in 94. It is expected that Russia will not invade neighboring countries and NATO will not expand any further. A dialogue will be held between NATO and Russia, mediated by the United States, to resolve all security issues and create conditions for de-escalation in order to ensure global security. Ukraine will receive reliable security guarantees.

Keep in mind, outside certain people, There's only one aggressive nation in the area. NATO is a defensive organization. Nobody wants any region of Russia. It is Russia that's causing all this, but I digress. Ukraine will receive reliable security guarantees.

Without international troops, there's none that would satisfy me. The size of the Ukrainian armed forces, get this, has to not be limited to 600,000. How dare you? You know Ukraine is not a threat to you. Right.

So you know they're not going to invade you. They don't aim at civilian targets. You do. But you want to make sure that the country you're going to reinvade when Trump's gone is down to 600,000. The Ukraine agrees to enshrine in its constitution that it will not join NATO.

That's a big one. All right. And NATO, I don't think that's, I don't, you know, that's weird, but I would accept it. Because NATO agrees not to station troops in Ukraine. That's a problem.

Because nothing stops Russia since 1994, the invasion in 2014 and 2008, they just keep trying to take more land. Uh European fighter jets will be stationed in Poland. The U.S. guarantees will receive compensation for the guarantee. The U.S.

will see it, I guess. If Ukraine invades Russia, it will lose its guarantee. If Russia invades Ukraine, in addition to decisive coordinated military response, old global sanctions will be reinstated. But we'll see who the President is then. Russia will be reintegrated into the global community.

A powerful global package of to rebuild Ukraine, I think that will happen. Ukraine is eligible for EU membership. That's great. That's an economic relationship. But I feel like 90% of this is what Russia wants.

They were also getting the rest of the Donbass region, which they haven't won.

Well, the land seeding is a big one. And we've never really seen Zelensky willing to go anywhere near that.

So that's a sticking point. I do think NATO is a sticking point, too, because remember, if you go back, as you mentioned, 94, and it's a great place to start, which is when Ukraine agreed to give up their nuclear weapons, Putin said, Cool, great, let's write it out. I'll go in later.

So now there are sticking points in here, like agreeing to never join NATO, which is the last thing Putin wants.

So you should perhaps encourage it if you're on the side of Ukraine. And the land seed, Putin just says, great, I'll sign on. Let's do this. We'll stop the war. Trump leaves office.

We'll see who comes next. Then I'm coming back and I'll accomplish the mission. Make up some ridiculous views. It's a long view. Russian speakers are in Ukraine.

They're not happy with this government. That's what they did last time. We don't buy it. You don't buy it. But Russia uses that to tell their people and to give themselves an excuse to take more land.

And they got to transition their economy. They are a backwards nation that has now shifted to a war economy. My fear is they have nothing to do if they're not making weapons.

So now all those factories have been converted. All these people are making money there. That money stops when there's no reason to fight a war. And they usually, when the people come back, they usually overthrow their government.

So that's what Vladimir Putin's not looking forward to. I want you to hear what the president said about it. But do you know that if you don't stop him in Ukraine, he's going to have problems. They're going to be another, the Baltics are going to be in trouble. No, they'll be stopped.

He's not looking for more war. Look, he's taking punishment. Say what you want. I mean, this was supposed to be a one-day war that ended four years now, okay? But in all fairness, we gave them the best military equ we make the best equipment in the world.

We gave We gave Ukraine the best military equipment anywhere in the world. Nobody makes, and we gave them a lot of it.

Somebody had to use that equipment and say what you want. They were very brave. Yeah. It's true. I think that President Trump has embraced his peacemaker title.

And that's whether he all planned that or not, here we are. And so it'll be interesting to see because the relationship between Trump and Zielinski has had so many different chapters. Zelensky's plan it right now. What Zelensky says is let me look. I mean, he doesn't say anything bad.

No. I'm going to take a look at it. I'm really going to work hard on this. And the word is, and I try to get the President to say it: is it true next Thursday is your deadline? Because evidently that's what they said.

But here's the thing. I want those sanctions to go into play. Do you know what the sanctions go in today? Rosenad and Lukoil? Luka Oil?

So they're the ones who spend the major sell the majority of their oil to India.

So India knows it's over.

So, these guys, it's going to be widely sanctioned.

So, they're about to pay the price. Then, of course, they contact Woodkoff and they start negotiating again. I just hope people like this administration have their eyes wide open. Yeah, and look, the sanctions can't come fast enough to start to reset that. And the other piece of that is whether or not these security guarantees, if a deal is struck for Ukraine, they're not going to join NATO, they're going to get these enhanced security agreements.

Can that not only protect Ukraine from further Russian aggression in the near term, but can it open up the actual trade aspect for which that's why he thinks he's going to get peace in the Middle East through trade, not war? And he's applying the same principle here, but unless. Security guarantees are there. Are EU countries going to trade with Ukraine? Yeah, I hear you.

Plus, their innovation, they need their rare earth, and we need their. technology when it comes to drones. Right away.

So there could be some long-term aspects there. All right, Griff, thanks so much. Anybody else you want to plug for this weekend? Yeah, Maria Carina Machado, the Venezuelan opposition leader. I think we are at a really critical point here as we watch this giant carrier strike group spinning off there.

What's the end game? What is she planning to do? If there is, should Maduro be threatened and people around him start to walk away? What's her plan? What's happening?

That's on Fox and Friends this weekend. Yeah, who's got the army? That's the key. You could have the best political argument, but whoever's got the guns seems to matter. Griff, thanks so much.

I plan on voting in a manner consistent with how I have voted in the past. Do you condemn socialism in the United States? I plan on voting. In a manner consistent with how I've voted in the past, listen, I believe, as Democrats. that we believe in a country where you have a strong floor and no ceiling.

That's what we believe in as Democrats. That's a great line. And but he thinks that by naming Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Obamacare. Uh Veterans benefits, you know, the GI Bill, by naming all these things. He says that's socialism.

No, these are programs, social programs that you pay into. I get it. And there was some panic when FDR came out with the New Deal. The economy was cratering. But he says, listen, I got to get people social security.

They got to know that I can't get them to spend anything if they think they're going to have no money when they retire.

So we got to get them out of there. And this New Deal rolls out. Republicans were angry, but FDR kept winning. And that's what they said.

Socialism's coming. But the free market is still ruling everything. But we're at the point now where 60%, if you are successful and you live in. The North, any high-tax state, Massachusetts, New York. Uh Uh Maryland, Virginia, any high-tax state.

You are in a situation where six out of every ten dollars that you make goes to the government. I mean, that's really creeping socialism. But the other is full-blown socialism. We don't have, he wants to make, I don't want billionaires. I want to make sure there are no billionaires.

That's what socialists say. They want to control the means of production. What are we talking about?

Well, government will control shoemaking, and government will control chair making, and government will control buildings, and they'll be handling it. Doesn't work. There's no incentives. There's no free market principles. There's no ownership, a sense of pride because you work for a.

Behemoth. You work for an institution. You're not working for yourself. And that may work for some people who want to work in the post office and that's great, and you want to work for the federal government and that's fine. But for America's fuel is really by the entrepreneurs, the small business owners.

And this would wipe that out. That's a lot different from what Hakeem Jeffries was describing. From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead. Hi, everyone, from 48th and 6th in Midtown Manhattan.

It's a Brian Kilmead show, and got a big hour coming your way. Just had an interview with President Donald Trump in order to not have to toss, tell the president, can you hold on while I go to commercial? Because we have hard breaks, because we're a national show with hundreds of affiliates. I left Fox and Friends at about 8:20 a.m. Eastern, and I won 23 minutes with the President of the United States.

And Had a chance to do that uninterrupted, so we edited it up with our break structure, and we covered everything. And he's going to have a huge day. We know at three o'clock today, he's going to meet with Zoe Ramandani. We know that he's working on a Ukrainian peace deal. We know that they're starting to move forward on it.

Who knows if they're sincere? I highly doubt it. And then the Venezuela situation, the economic challenges. We know the president's constantly in court for everything that's going on. With immigration, but here's my interview with President Trump aired in its entirety for the first time.

Let's listen. Hey, Mr. President, thanks so much for joining me. I truly appreciate it.

Okay, absolutely, Brian. Good. Big meeting today at three o'clock with the mayor-elect of New York City that you've clashed with before from afar. What do you expect when you meet him face to face?

Well, I don't really know. He's got a different philosophy. He's a little bit different. I give him a lot of credit for the run. They did a successful run, and we all know that runs are not easy.

But I think we'll get along fine. Look, we're looking for the same thing. We want to make New York strong. You know, there's just such a different philosophy, but I'll let you know. I'll let you know over the next year, Brian, okay?

So I know sometimes when you go to sit down with you, Ms. President, sometimes you'll whip out a list and you'll say, Did you say this about me in the past? I know Pierce Morgan has said that. This is something that might be on your list that he said about you after he won, by the way, cut three. This is not only How we stop, Trump.

It's how we stop the next one.

So Donald Trump. Since I know you're watching. Uh I have four. words for you. Turn the volume up.

So it was a little bit of an in-your-face one at Time. He should usually, after a victory speech, be kind of magnanimous. Your thoughts on that.

Okay.

Well, I was hitting them a little hard too, in all fairness. I was, you know. Hard to be totally friendly toward the opponent. You know, his opponent wasn't he had some interesting opponents. But he ran a good race.

I I don't know exactly what he means by turn the volume up, because turn the volume up. He has to be careful when he says that to me. But nobody really was able I said, what does that mean, turn the volume up? Does that mean let's go at it? Yeah, it's I don't think so.

I mean, he was very nice in calling, as you know, and we're going to have a meeting. I guess we meet at 3 o'clock today. And I think it's going to be quite civil. We'll find out. You'll be the first to know.

I know. We'll see it at 3 o'clock. Will you open up the doors to the press after? I think so. I mean, it's fine with me.

I would think so. He's a politician, so I don't think he has a problem. The one thing I notice about politicians, the answer is always yes, other than with Biden.

So one thing he did say there's one thing he does say that probably won't be great. He says, I never go back to the days when Eric Adams would go on national television and open the door for the NYPD handling civil immigration enforcement. He doesn't expect cooperation between the NYPD and ICE. That's got to be disappointing.

Well, it we're going to be talking about it. I I just can't imagine that where you have hardcore criminals. And this is about criminals. You know, you can make a case. The other way having to do with others.

But, you know, when you have a murderer, when you have a known murderer, known rapist, a known whatever it is. Drug dealers all over the place. I can't imagine that anybody wants to keep them, but I'll have that discussion with them today, absolutely. Yeah, we'll talk about immigration a little bit later, but I also want to talk about something else that matters a lot, and that's that tape that those veterans in Elise Slotkin put out talking about urging, I guess, or reminding. Are troops that they don't have to obey orders.

Listen to a little of it. You can refuse illegal orders. You can refuse illegal orders. You must refuse illegal orders. So you get the spirit of it.

Your reaction was pretty direct. This is really bad and the dangerous to our country. The words cannot be allowed to stand. Seditious behavior from traitors. And you want to say punishable by death.

So, people thought that you were saying death to those politicians. What were you saying?

Well, if you look at sedition, if you look at that type of that's a form of A very strong form of being a traitor. That's a terrible thing to say. I must tell you, I heard it. And I thought it was some kind of a comedy situation. I thought there were c you know, it was some kind of a skit.

And 'Cause I couldn't believe that they'd say it. And I watched Democrat congressman and one Democrat senator yesterday on one of the shows. Didn't they want to discuss it? They said, Whoa, don't get me into that one. They don't want to get into that is a really serious charge.

I I'll tell you what, what they said is and it was I mean, I don't know about the modern day things 'cause you know, modern day is a lot softer, but in the old days, if you said a thing like that, that was punishable by death. Yeah, but you're not saying you're not threatening them. A lot of people are interpreting there's a threat in their security. I'm not threatening them, but I think they're in serious trouble. I would say they're in serious trouble.

I'm not threatening death. But I think they're in serious trouble. In the old days it was dead. Do you worry, mister President? Sudden behavior.

Do you worry? Do you worry is a big deal. Do you worry? You know, nothing's a big deal. Today's a different world, okay?

It's a softer mic. It's a meeker, milder world. But I I will say this, I think what they did is really bad. the hatred is pretty strong. But what what when they say essentially don't follow the orders of the President of the United States.

So Do you worry that some of your guys are going to say no? Young privates and young corporals and young sergeants, and they're not scholars. Necessarily. There might be a few, frankly. But they're not scholars.

They don't study the Constitution, et cetera, et cetera. They know that.

So these are people these are bad people. These are people that, in my opinion, broke the law.

Now what happens to them, I can't tell you. But they broke the law. That is a terrible statement. I can say, if I ever said that, And there were a Democrat as president. All hell would have broken loose.

And it has broken loose. I have had more calls from people, even Democrats, saying what a horrible thing that was.

So, do you worry that someone on the Gerald R. Ford will say, hey, I don't want to do this Venezuelan mission. I don't want to sit out in the ocean. I'm out. You know, do you worry about them saying, I don't want to go to Chicago and be in the National Guard?

I'm out. Do you worry about that? No, I don't worry about anything like that because I'm a leader and they do as I say. But it certainly is not a good situation. You know, it could happen.

With certain leaders, it could happen. I don't think that happened with me, but you know, you never know. Look, that was a very terrible, that was a traitorous statement. That was a horrible thing to do. I believe they broke the law very strongly.

I think it's a very serious violation of the law. I know Todd Blanche seems to be looking into it. Your assistant deputy or yours.

Well, I think Pete Hexeth is looking into it, too. I know they're looking into it militarily. I don't know for a fact, but I think the military is looking into it, the military courts.

Mr. President, this week there's a lot of stories about the FBI investigation into Thomas Crookes. And Miranda Devine had a source that said that he had a huge social media footprint and that it was mischaracterized by the former FBI director and his deputy, saying it was just anti-Semitic. It was beginning, according to the social media reports, if they're posting, if they're correct, in the beginning they were pro-U. At the end, it was anti-Trump and anti-they have a few frets about Fox too.

Do you are you? Currently happy. with the investigation into crooks that your FBI is doing.

Well, I wasn't happy with Christopher Wray, and I wasn't happy with that whole situation with him. But I do have confidence in cash, a lot of confidence. And and the DOJ, and they are giving me reports And their reports are seem seeming to balance out.

So I have confidence in these people. I didn't have confidence in Christopher Ray. I thought Christopher Wray was not good at the job he did.

So in other words, so Miranda Devine said over the weekend that you weren't confident, and Eric seemed upset, but for the most part, you feel as though you are fully briefed. If Crooks had international.

Well, I wasn't confident with Christopher Ray, but in this group, it's a different group, and it's cash. as opposed to Christopher Wray, and I have confidence in cash. Healthcare, I know just like the war in Gaza and Ukraine, you inherited it. Obamacare is not affordable. The deductibles are roughly $6,000.

But a lot of your voters are stuck with it, and they're saying, if I can't afford my health care, it seems like Republicans like Katie Britt and Senator Cassidy and Tillis are saying, Mr. President, let's do something with the subsidies. Let's try to help people out. Are you going to start working in a bipartisan way? Yeah, we have something where instead of the insurance companies getting the money, you know, they're making.

billions and billions of dollars. And it's lousy health care. They call it the Unaffordable Care Act, right? This is the Unaffordable Care Act. And I always said that.

I said, this thing's going to explode. It's no good. And it is exploding and it's unacceptable. It's too expensive for people. It's no good for the country, but it's it's worse for the people.

It's lousy health care. And we I want to give the money that we give to the insurance companies directly to the people, let the people buy their own health insurance. And that's what's going to happen. I believe that this Good support on both sides for that. And Katie's working on it.

A lot of people are working on it. Rick Scott. is working on it. Many, many senators are working on it. And you know, we have a June we have a January 30th date coming up.

I'd like to see if we could do it by then. They're saying, well, let's go another year, and I said, let's see if we can get it done by january thirtieth.

So, there are a lot of people, including Democrats, that are working on this. Basically, taking your money, not giving the insurance. Let them let their stock go down. Who the hell cares? They've made a fortune on this.

Obama, what he handed to the insurance company and I said it from the beginning, I said, This is an insurance company scam. And it's a scam against the people. And we don't give the money to the insurance company. We give the money directly to the people, and they buy their health insurance. It's a great and fairly it's a very complex subject, but it's Fairly, we have made it a lot less complex.

You'd get better health insurance and you'd save a lot of money.

So, Senator Cassie agrees with you. He's an expert, a former doctor, and Rick Scott. I understand it.

So, in other words, for people listening right now, many of which voted for yours, some didn't, that are just concerned about their bills, you're going to do something to help them. That's go kill. We're going to do a lot, not something. We're going to do a lot. We're going to get there.

We're going to give them better health insurance for less money. Let me put it very simply. Better health insurance for less money. Let's talk about Venezuela. You have this unprecedented buildup in our hemisphere.

It's the Monroe Doctrine in 2026. They're calling it the Donroe Doctrine. And you basically said, I'll speak to Maduro. He reached out through emissaries or directly. When you speak to him, is the message simply you have to go?

Is there any scenario where he stays in power? Brian, look, you are somebody I have a lot of respect for. Everybody respects you, and congratulations on your success. You're a hard worker and you do a great job. And you're a friend.

I'm not allowed to say that, but you're a friend of mine. You're a great guy. But I can't tell you that, Brent. I'm sorry. I'm not going to tell you what I'm going to tell them.

I just don't do that. You know, maybe other politicians do. I can't do that. And then they prepare for that. or unless I want to send a mixed signal, and I don't like lying.

But uh no, I can't tell you what I'm gonna tell them, but I have something very specific to say. Look, what they did dr drugs are uh horrendous and you know, they're one but you also have Mexico, you have Colombia. Colombia is horrible in the drug situation. I mean, they have uh cocaine plants where they make cocaine. They th it's horrible.

Colombia's horrible. And we're going to deal with that. We're dealing with it all. We're dealing with things that nobody else ever even thought to think about. And it would be a lot easier not to do it, but not really, because it's destroying A big chunk of our country.

When you look at the death and destruction and the family, what happens to a family? uh with you know kids that get Hooked. And not only kids, parents could hook too. Everyone, the numbers are unbelievable. I think we lost.

Last year, 200,000 people. That's death. But when you multiply that times three or four for the people that are affected, the parents, the brothers, the sisters, it's a terrible situation. And uh Venezuela is a big part of it. But Venezuela did one thing that nobody else did to that extent.

They emptied their prisons into our country. Trendi Aragua, the gang. Their prisons were emptied into the U.S. Empty. And Mr.

President, don't you think the message to Mondami? Yeah, the message to Mondami is if you want socialism, look at Venezuela. It doesn't work. The other thing, the Colombia president came out and said Maduro should go. I was kind of shocked at that because you're sparring with the Colombia President who's up for election.

So maybe there's some support in the region for him to do what Aristi did from Haiti and get out. And I'm sure there's a bunk bed available with Assad somewhere in Russia as long as he leaves because you have a rightful government that won an election and can't take power because they don't have control of the army. Yes.

Well, we're going to see, and we're going to be very much involved, and we're going to I'll be speaking to him in the not too distant future, but I can't tell you what I'm going to be saying. He won't tell me what he's going to say, but I think it's going to be you got to go. And I'm not going to keep my troops there, not doing anything for that long a period of time.

So, when we come back, part two, I'll have a few minutes, and then the second half hour, I'll have part two of my interview, 22 minutes long with the 47th President of the United States. A lot of that stuff he had not spoken about before, and you'll see it a lot as he gets ready for his mom-dommy meeting and so much more today. Brian Kilmichio. The headlines, the stories behind them, and the people who make them only on the Brian Kill Meet Show. Radio that makes you think.

This is the Brian Kill Me Show. And you were one of those famous guys in New York. And I said, this is a great guy. And because you care about the average person, and you showed me that respect. And I walked back with this great interview with Donald Trump, the promoter, and I'll never forget it.

So thanks so much for your time then and now.

Well, maybe I spotted talent. You know, maybe I saw you, and you were a young guy, young, nice, handsome guy. Maybe I said, This guy's got a big future. I better be nice to him. And I was right.

See that?

So maybe I didn't do it for myself. Maybe I really did something that. I spotted great talent. Look how well you've done.

So I'm very proud of you. You've done a great job. And he ended up amounting to something. I believe he became president. And I was talking about this.

That was from my interview with President Trump. You're going to get the second half of it in about four minutes. But one thing I said to him is the first time I met President Trump, I was doing, so he was, he owned the Taj Mahal and owned everything in Atlantic City, and he's promoting the Alex Stewart Mike Tyson fight. I think Stewart Tyson was champion again. I think he was out of prison, and he's trying to get his belt back.

And Alex Stewart had been undefeated, so I'm covering the fight. I did a feature on Alex Stewart, and I have a I have uh my MyCube is the sports phone, which is a great place to work, but it's the lowest rung of the sports ladder. You have a 97613, it's a phone service, so you call 9761313, and you get your sports scores. And then you do live events and things like that.

So there was precursor to all sports radio. It was before there was all sports radio.

So you walk in and you have that MyCube, and you go into the Yankee locker room. They'll look at you and they're like, Yeah, you're not a network. You know, they'll walk right by you, giants and jets. And you know, you just you just go through it, you know, you break it in, you do whatever you can, you try to get the best interviews, but you know the MyCube doesn't get anybody's attention. But with for some reason, here's this young guy famous on page six of the New York Post.

Rich He's thinking about going on Old Pro thinking about running for president. And I walk over to him, and instead of going to Warner Wolf and all these local legends, he starts giving me the first interview. And I go, what is it going to be like? Do you think Tyson's got a shot? Alex Stewart's never been knocked out.

He answered all my questions. He talked about it's going to be the best night ever. It's going to be sold out. Mike Tyson is the best, you know. He gave me a great interview.

I was able to come back to Sportsphone. I go, look, I got a one-on-one. With Donald Trump. They couldn't believe it. It was like better at that point, it was almost as good as getting Mike Tyson.

But if he was able to look at me making $14,000 a year, I couldn't really help him then. I go, this guy likes the everyday person. You know, he wasn't, you know, just looking for people on the big networks. I thought that was a quality that helped him become president, in my view. What do you think?

1-866-408-7669. Brian Kennedy. Breaking news, unique opinions. Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show.

So Zuram Amdani has just arrived, by the way, in Washington, D.C. A lot of people asking their pictures. He's going to have a high-profile meeting with the President of the United States at his request. President said, sure, that was the first question I asked the 47th President 20 minutes ago. And he just answered.

Part two of my interview is now, and I open up with Ukraine. Really concerned about the plan, 28 points, but I wanted to get a 28-point plan that evidently has until next Thursday to agree to it, or that we start diminishing the number of weapons. But I don't think we're doing that. They're paying for them. I don't understand that.

But. Russia started the war. We'll see if they really want to end the war because it's not really up to Ukraine. I mean, Ukraine. will never invade you.

They just want to defend themselves. And also keep in mind before you hear the interview, that Zelensky could sign off on this plan. It doesn't matter. Parliament has to sign off on the plan. And the people of Ukraine do not want to give up land that they've not they have not lost in war.

And that's what some of this Actually requires All right, so here's my interview, more part two of my interview with President Trump. 28-point plan has been out there. There's a report that you gave Zelensky until next Thursday to essentially agree to it. He is saying all the right things. He's open to it.

He's meeting with Dan Driscoll, your secretary of the Army. But some of the points on there that are, I guess, everything's in flux until it's done. No one has to tell you about a deal. It looks like Ukraine has to cut their personnel to 600,000. It looks like they've got to give up some land that they have not lost in the war.

They cannot join NATO. They will lose in a short period of time. The whole of Donbass. They're losing land. They're losing land.

We're in it for one thing. We want the killing this. You know, they lost 25,000 people last month? between the two countries, twenty five thousand people. It's out of control.

It's a bloodbath. Remember the famous word bloodbath? Right. Remember when they tried to make that an interesting thing? But you know that if you don't stop him in Ukraine, he's going to have problems.

They're going to be another, the Baltics are going to be in trouble. No, they'll be stopped. He's not looking for more war. Look, he's taking punishment. Say what you want.

I mean, this was supposed to be a one-day war that ended four years now, okay? But in all fairness, We gave them the best military equip. We make the best equipment in the world. We gave We gave Ukraine the best military equipment anywhere in the world. Nobody makes, and we gave them a lot of it.

Somebody had to use that equipment and say what you want. They were very brave. Do you agree with that? They're great fighters. They're great fighters.

And the other thing, Mr. President, you're not pulling off the sanctions while you wait on the 28-point plan because it seems like every time you do Vladimir Putin wants to...

So they go in today, don't they? Against Luke Oil, Lukoil, Luka Oil. And they go in very soon, and they're very powerful. Very powerful. I mean, you know, it makes it very hard to sell oil.

That's a big thing. That's you know the whole Their whole economy is based on oil. But no, I'm not doing anything having to do with taking vaccinations. All right, understood.

So is next Thursday the deadline that you gave a loose deadline for Ukraine?

Well, we have I've had a lot of deadlines, but if things are working well, you tend to extend the deadlines. But Thursday is a we think it appropriate times.

So today we find out that 52 more Christians were kidnapped from their school in Nigeria. and they're being held for $100 million ransom. What do you say to people who think that this is not an urgent situation and they need to be acted on? What's your answer to those questions? I think Nigeria is a disgrace.

The whole thing is a disgrace. They're killing people by the thousands. It's a genocide. And I'm really angry about it. And we pay you know, we give a lot of subsidy to Nigeria.

We're gonna end up stopping. The government's done nothing. They're very ineffective. Yeah, they're killing Christians at will and You know, until I got involved in it two weeks ago, nobody even talked about it. The New York Times doesn't write stories about it.

Nobody writes stories about it. They're killing people, hundreds of thousands of people. And the New York Star New York Times and all that garbage that you people read, that are forced to read. They write all garbage, the the most dishonest group of people. But wh when you look at it, They don't can you imagine?

They don't they don't even cover it. They hardly cover a story like this. It's like I don't even know if they cover it at all. But not only them, others. When you look at the lack of coverage, And yet, other things that are totally unimportant get massive coverage.

It's disgraceful. What's happening in Nigeria is a disgrace.

So, your UN ambassador got something I haven't seen before, Mike Waltz. 15-0, the UN has signed off, the Security Council signed off on the Trump peace plan. in Gaza. I read that they've set up a unit and a warehouse. The first floor is Israelis, the second floor is us, as well as international representation from Egypt to Qatar, and they're working on bringing peace to the area.

But Hamas says they're not putting down their weapons. What could you do to get us to Phase II in this effort to have peace?

Well, we're going to see. Let's take a look at Hamas, what they do, because we just started that process. Let's see what happens. I will say this. We have now peace in the Middle East.

We have countries signed on. We have so many countries that are signed on. In fact, it changes every single day. Countries are being added. There's never been a time like this in the Middle East.

You have peace in the Middle East.

Now you have Hamas. which is has been you know, beaten very badly. You have Iran, which has been beaten very badly, and their nuclear capability taken away, and they want to make a deal, and we probably will make a deal with Iran. But you have peace for the first time in the Middle East. You have real peace in the Middle East.

You have Hezbollah with Lebanon, which is not good. But that's a, you know, relatively small situation, not a good situation, but small. But you had things one year ago, you had nuclear weapons. You had Iran was boasting about how strong they were. You had this is a totally different Middle East right now.

And you have countries that want to make peace as opposed to countries that had no idea of making peace. We've taken a big dark cloud off of the Middle East. By Bringing Iran back to every size. Understood. And lastly, Mr.

President, what do you say to people who see the rise of AI? And they say, my goodness, we saw that Amazon cut back 9,000 jobs not because of performance, but because they got automated they got robots and they were able to AI and be more efficient. What do you say to people who are nervous about AI? And think that's going to be the end of their jobs, their occupation, their living. What's your message to them?

Well, what's going to happen is economies will get so much bigger that you'll have tremendous numbers of jobs, including the making of AI itself. We have plants that are being built in this country, producing AI, artificial intelligence. I never liked the idea with the word artificial, but that's what they call it, so let them call it. We have the biggest plants in the world being built.

So people have to build those plants, people have to operate the plants, people have to do a lot. What's happening is the whole from our standpoint, I can tell you as a country, our country is getting much bigger, much wealthier. We have twenty trillion dollars being invested in the United States. Under all under if you took a look at past years, but if you go back just to Biden, they had less than substantially less than one trillion over four years. I have twenty trillion in one year.

It'll be about twenty trillion in one year. a record. No other country ever in history has done that. All of that money, much of it, goes toward jobs.

So yes, I agree with you. It'll make things more efficient, but it'll also make things much bigger. It's going to level out beautifully. Mr. President, I can't thank you enough for the loyalties of the show, but the first time I ever interviewed you, I was at Sportsphone, the lowest rung of media.

And you were promoting the Alex Stewart Tyson fight. And when I went up to talk to you, I've had Yankees and other Major League Baseball players just walk past my mic flag. You actually talked to me before Warner Wolfe.

So I go, this guy, and you were one of those famous guys in New York. And I said, This is a great guy. And because you care about the average person, and you showed me that respect. And I walked back with this great interview with Donald Trump, the promoter, and I'll never forget it.

So, thanks so much for your time then and now.

Well, maybe I spotted talent. You know, maybe I saw you, and you were a young guy, young, nice, handsome guy. Maybe I said, This guy's got a big future. I better be nice to him. And I was right.

See that?

So maybe I didn't do it for myself. Maybe I really did something that. I spotted great talent. Look how well you've done.

So I'm very proud of you. You said a great job. And I think you've done well for yourself, too, two-term president. I've done okay. I've done okay.

But we watch each other. Absolutely. Very nice. Hey, Mr. President, I'll see you today at 3 o'clock.

I look forward to it. Thanks so much. I appreciate it. Thank you very much, Brian. Very nice.

Thank you. Thank you. Very nice way for him to start his day with us.

So that was pretty cool.

So now you have a story. This is where he stood.

So when we come back, I'll take your calls: 1-866-408-7669. And also tell me what you think about where we're going here. You got the Ukraine plan. You have the situation. With Mondami, what's your prediction on how it's going to happen?

What do you think is going to happen too? And he is happy with the FBI investigation.

So I spoke to people in the FBI this week, this FBI, and they were a little befuddled by the fact that Miranda Devine, who we love, had a report that the president was not happy with the investigation. And he just told us: no, I am happy with the way the investigation into Thomas Crooks is going, that he's the butler shooter.

So when we come back, your calls, your emails, I got I'm gonna go through the emails too. Don't move. Where big stories meet bigger conversations. Stay informed and energized with the Brian Kilmeet Show. It's Will Kane Country.

And do you know you plan on voting on the Socialism Resolution tomorrow? Uh I plan on voting in a manner consistent with how I have voted in the past. Do you do you condemn socialism in the United States? I plan on voting. In a manner consistent with how I've voted in the past, listen, I believe as Democrats that we believe in a country where you have a strong floor and no ceiling.

That's what we believe in as Democrats. So that is not socialism, by the way, but it's strong floor.

Some of those proto-social programs that's called Social Security, that's called Medicare, that's called Medicaid. You know, the programs that you get, you know, we usually pay into them. I mean, you pay into Social Security. I don't know if you get back, you don't get back dollar for dollar, but those are social programs. That's different from socialism.

That's getting into whole home ownership. and lack of incentives. And capitalism might not be the best buzzword, But it's the type of word. That accurately describes our system that has to go with the democracy. It's got to be this will to succeed and the need to get an education in order to find your way through society.

And as you do that, you work. And our economy hums. And that's why we're so productive over the course of 250 years.

So Hakeem Jeffries said that yesterday, and the reason why we bring that up is today there was a vote to condemn socialism. And Nakeem Jeffries voted to condemn socialism.

So now we have the answer. He was hedging yesterday, but for today. But you know what it does? It puts him directly against Mondami and the socialists that's going to primary him, I think, in Brooklyn and the 30-plus that are primarily other Democrats around the country. They are heartened and emboldened by the success that Mondami has had.

Nathan, you're in Virginia. Hey, Nathan. Hey, Brady Barn, how's it going? Good. Which are you mind?

Do you think it's a really good idea for Trump to give in to the Saudis for his Abrahamic accords? Yeah. With Palestine given legitimacy in the UN? I don't know that that's a demand. I should have let you finish.

That's not the demand I would sign off on. I wouldn't do it. And in the peace agreement, I would not sign off on a two-state solution. What you do is, number one, they have to go prove that they can live a life without violence. And to do that, you got to get rid of Hamas.

And do you know that they're already coming in with different curriculum into the schools, even though the place is rubble? Do you know they're all part of the peace plan? And this is what gives me hope. The Saudis did reconstruct their educational system. That Wahhabism, that extremism, that's living for the next life is now not in their system.

So we have a generation. That's not growing up with it. It doesn't mean there's no bin Ladens out there, but it means they're changing their society. Do you know that they're coming in with a new curriculum for the Palestinian kids? It's starting right now.

So, if this there's no such thing as a two-state solution that can't even be entertained for at least 10 years. Because They don't want a two-state solution. The Palestinians don't want a two-state solution. They want a one-state solution. And if you don't believe me, ask Bill Clinton.

Ask Hillary Clinton. Ask anybody involved in the 90s when they thought they could land that plane, and they don't. But I do think that the Saudis Abraham Accords is coming. JD in New Jersey. Hey, JD.

Hey, Brian. Brian, how are you, sir? Great. Thank you for taking my call. No problem.

You made a comment about when you were down just as that young reporter in President Pres well now President Trump spoke to you. I had a similar thing, sir. I'm a retired captain from FDNY. And uh I help a lot of people th throughout my career move up. That's just what you do.

You're supposed to do that. And a lot of those people moved up into very high levels within the department. Sadly, I'm a little bit sick from nine eleven, and I was having some problems in getting the started on the path to get the care that I need to have. And it was those people down there that didn't forget. and they paid it back, paid it forward, whichever you'd like to use.

But My point I'm trying to make is opportunities are out there and we fail to see them and we've got to actually look for them. True, and I would say this, this is what you did. You have to, if you can judge someone's character by how they t treat people they need nothing from. And what I was trying to say with that story is he doesn't get much from me running a se an interview on 9761313, which is I was proud to have it. I was my first broadcasting job.

And he knows that all the nether networks are the ones that are going to sell tickets in Atlantic City. But he just looked at him. He goes, I'm going to be polite. That's the way I'm going to do it. You know, he is going to help people.

You're doing the same thing. You are on your own career path, you're moving up the ranks. But you just say, I'm just going to help people. And that pays off in unexpected ways, right?

Something I never expected. Never expected to get sick and Never expected to be in a position and more than one person stepped forward and helped me get over it. And by the way, how are you now? I'm fine, sir. I'm actually doing well.

I got a lot of good news. Nice. All right, good job, JD. Thanks for sharing your story. Hey, Gino in St.

Louis. Hey, Gino. Hey, Brian, great interview with the president. I really love that. Thank you so much.

What's on your mind? What's on your mind, though?

Well, on my mind is my 401k. The market has dropped 2,500 points in the last seven or eight days. Nobody's talking about it. Every they're talking about Madame, the sex scandals, everything but. And I'm wondering why, because that's the biggest thing that affects me, besides my safety with ICE and the immigration thing.

And no one's talking about it. I know what's going on. You figure with $30 trillion of investment, the market should be going up, up, up. And it's not.

Well, a couple of things. You know, it's up 300 points today. And I think it's going to climb back again. And you know what happened yesterday is that they're worried about the Fed. And they see the weird thing is, and these people who major in economics and do this for a living think it's a no-brainer, but it's really not.

If the better the economy doing, if the jobs report look strong, if they look solid growth. The Fed goes, okay, they don't need a rate cut, but the market wants a rate cut. Why? Your credit card's at 26%. Your house that you got for 3%, your mortgage that you're going to get for your new house, your bigger house, your next house is at 6%.

Nobody's moving. You don't go to Home Depot to build up your house, the economy doesn't go. If you cut rates, it indicates you're going to cut rates. Then the market goes, Okay, I'm ready to go. I'm ready to go with that Home Depot stock.

I'm ready to go with real estate stocks. I'm ready to move. I'm ready to invest. And what happened is, because the jobs report was so good. They said, okay, uh-oh, this year we're not going to get another rate cut.

That's bad. And I watched Charles Payne last night. He told Brett, I'm not sure you're going to get one now, but the market is responding to AI and the investment. They're worried about an AI bubble, and they don't want to be holding the bag like they were when George Bush took over. In 2000, he took over a roaring economy, but then we were getting used to the internet and most of those companies failed.

Because people were just bullion with the possibility that the internet could do, and it ended up producing.

Now they look at AI and they say, wow, look at all the money pouring in. And then some people go, wait a second, what if these companies fail like the other companies fail? What if OpenAI, who can't profit until 2030, is not a good investment? And that's what caused it to drop. This is Ainsley Earhart.

Thank you for joining me for the 52-episode podcast series, The Life of Jesus. A listening experience that will provide hope, comfort, and understanding of the greatest story ever told. Listen and follow starting November 30th on FoxNewsPodcasts.com. Hey. From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan.

It's the fastest-growing radio talk show. Brian Kilmead. Hi, everyone, from 48th and 6th in mid-Town, Manhattan, heard around the country, around the world. This is the Brian Kilmeet Show. Eric Adams is still mayor, our mayor-elect, is now in Washington.

We saw that he, I guess, he had earlier meetings, doesn't have to be into the White House till 3. Didn't want to miss his plane.

So he was landing in Washington. He's doing some autographs and some pictures. About two hours ago, we talked to the president about this meeting, about what to expect, and he seemed relatively optimistic it'll go well. This hour, I'll be joined by Congressman Jason Chaffetz, and he's going to give us perspective on not just the meeting in Washington. but where we're going with the economy.

So let's get to the big three. Number three. And I guess my message to the American people who are still feeling like things are unaffordable, who are still feeling like things are rough out there, is: look, we get it. We understand that there's a lot more work to do. And the thing that I'd ask for the American people is a little bit of patience.

Really? J.D. Vance, 100%, because your programs were passed, but they're not in place yet. The economy will make or break the midterms for both parties. The Trump team gets positive numbers yesterday and asked for patience today.

Can they make the good times roll? Let's talk about it. Number Tim. In the old days, if you said a thing like that, that was punishable by debt. Yeah, but you're not saying you're not threatening them.

A lot of people are interpreting there's a threat and they're security. I'm not threatening them, but I think they're in serious trouble. I would say they're in serious trouble. Treason, maybe not, but inexplicably irresponsible. That's in my view.

Yes, for sure. I'm talking about the Democratic tape calling for military members to rise up against Trump orders that they deem illegal. The Weiss House erupted yesterday, and you heard what Trump said today. Number one. I said, what does that mean?

Turn the volume up. Does that mean let's go at it? Yeah. I don't think so. I mean, he was very nice in calling, as you know, and we're going to have a meeting.

I guess we meet at 3 o'clock today. And I think it's going to be quite civil. We'll find out. Mondami, meeting at the White House. The socialist meets the capitalist.

While the two give peace, will the two give peace a chance? I guess the president. Kind of wants to be more optimistic than that. Also, we have a Ukrainian 28-point peace plan, which leads heavily towards Russia. I think it's got to be amended severely.

I have reason to think that it will be before it even goes forward. Keep in mind, whether you think for Vladimir Putin, Vladimir Putin's 100% responsible for this war. And if you don't like Zelensky, that's up to you. I don't know what he's done wrong in your eyes. He's got a corruption situation, which none of you know the details of unless you grew up in Ukraine.

Well, you're there now. But. We got to make sure there's nothing that we're not at this place again in three or four years. If we end the wrong way, we're just going to be back here with Ukraine or Romania or Moldova or anywhere in the Baltics. He's got to learn his lesson.

And this 28-piece plan doesn't do that. It's got some positive things in it, though. Shannon Bream joins us now, anchor to Fox News Sunday. Shannon, now we got a Thursday deadline, Thanksgiving deadline, for Zelensky to sign off on this. There's got to be a lot of negotiating first, don't you think?

How do you know I'm not in Ukraine, by the way? Pretty sure I saw you on TV a second ago here. Live from Ukraine. Listen, the president, this has been intractable for him. Remember, all during the campaign, I'm going to get this done on day one.

So there's a lot of frustration. It's fluctuated back and forth between Putin, between Zelensky. I think he just wants it done. But do I think Thanksgiving is a hard and fast deadline? I don't think so because he's moved so much on other parts of the negotiation.

But if we're talking about a guaranteed security force, a lot of his America first people are not going to like this. This idea that U.S. troops, maybe even his vice president, could potentially be committed into combat involving Ukraine and Russia. I think he's got some selling to do to Ukraine, but he's got some selling to do here at home, too. Right.

And I don't think he wants that. I think he said over the top. And remember, France and England said we'll put our troops in, but Russia says they don't want it. You can't have any NATO forces in there. Then they have to have only 600,000 people in their military.

Which, by the way, why are you worried about Ukraine's military? Are you afraid they're going to invade Russia? I'm pretty sure that's off the table, don't you think? Yeah, yeah.

So now we'll see how receptive, because now we're starting to hear things from some Russian officials like, oh, we haven't been presented with an actual plan, despite all of this conversation that we've had about Tef Witkov talking with Putin, talking with Russian officials, and then, you know, Secretary of the Army Driscoll being going over and trying to sell this to Ukraine, Ukraine saying, oh, there's a lot we don't understand about this and that we can't accept. You know, it's not going to be easy. If it was, this thing would have been resolved a long time ago. And it's just going to be excruciating, I think, to get it across the finish line.

So today at 3 o'clock, I know you're going to be reporting on Sunday and probably throughout the day about the Mondami meeting. And the president told me that he expects. To be open to the press after they have their one-on-one. Here's what he told me, what he expects to happen.

Well, I was hitting him a little hard, too, in all fairness. I don't know exactly what he means by turn the volume up, because turn the volume up. He has to be careful when he says that to me. I mean, he was very nice in calling, as you know. And we're going to have a meeting.

I guess we meet at 3 o'clock today. And I think it's going to be quite civil. We'll find out. You'll be the first to know. By the way, he came out yesterday and said, I'm not going to cooperate with ICE like Eric Adams did.

That's not going to be good. And we know that he's got some issues with Donald Trump specifically. He used Donald Trump a lot during his. A victory speech.

So prediction? I really want this to be open. And listen, this president can change his mind. You know, I'm sure they can do whatever they want. I would just love to see them actually take questions together.

But even if they have a little kumbayat today, these guys are both from Queens. They've got generational and political divides between them for sure, but they're both very charming in person. And I think they're going to be fine face to face. I don't think it's going to be a Zelensky situation, unless maybe you do open it up, then it could turn into, because that's a different conversation. But even if they have a little bit of a truce today, I think they both know the next two to four years, they're going to be great foils for each other.

There's going to be sniping. There's going to be sparring. And I think they both will see a benefit in that.

So maybe, maybe, you know, they touch the gloves today, but they come off tomorrow. Yeah, I guess so. But the whole country is watching. And you know, this whole socialism trend within the Democratic Party, they're even looking to the Socialist Assemblyman is looking to primary Hakeem Jeffries.

So you have about the Nadler, the Nadler seat that's going to be open as a young Parkland graduate who was part of that shooting, sadly, and he wants to be the socialist representative there. About 30 separate Democrats are going to be primarily by socialists. What do you think the Democratic Party, how do they feel about that?

Well, remember, you've had this big divide with David Hogg, who was the vice chair of the DNC, but then not anymore, because that was one of his things: we're going to primary all these old school people or the more mainstream or old mainline Democrats. And it didn't go over well with Democrat leadership because they're like, whoa, whoa, we've got some really solid incumbents out there. Why are you going to do this? And he's raising millions of dollars to do that.

So they definitely have a fracture inside the party. And I think when it comes down to primary incumbents who have relatively safe seats, you're forcing them to spend money on these primaries, the Democrats, and all kinds of things that don't sit well with mainstream Dems. Yeah, I guess we're going to find out. The other big story is, I think, the treason tape. When these Democrats put together a tape that the president believes is treasonous, here's a little of it: cut eight.

The threats to our Constitution aren't just coming from abroad, but from right here at home. Our laws are clear. You can refuse illegal orders. You can refuse illegal orders. You must refuse illegal orders.

So it looks like Slotnick put this together. They have some type of military intelligence background. That's what they have in common: Jason Crowe, Kelly. The president is beside himself when he heard that. And you know what he put out on social media?

He made it pretty clear that this is, he thought it was treason, which we know is punishable by death.

Now everyone went crazy and said he's trying to kill us all. Here's what he said to me a short time ago. That was a traitorous statement. That was a horrible thing to do. I believe they broke the law very strongly.

I think it's a very serious violation of the law. I know Todd Blanche seems to be looking into it. Your assistant deputy.

Well, I think Pete Hexeth is looking into it, too. I know they're looking into it militarily. I don't know for a fact, but I think the military is looking into it, the military courts.

So here's a little more on I wanted to expand on what the threat was, what he really meant to say.

Well, if you look at sedition, if you look at that type of that's a form of A very strong form of being a traitor. It's a terrible thing to say. I must tell you, I heard it. And I thought it was some kind of a comedy situation. I thought there were k you know, it was some kind of a skit.

And Because I couldn't believe that they'd say it. And I watched Democrat congressman and one Democrat senator yesterday on one of the shows. Uh didn't even want to discuss it. They said, Whoa, don't get me into that one. They don't want to get into the that is a really serious charge.

I I'll tell you what, what they said is and it was, I mean, I don't know about the modern day things 'cause you know modern day is a lot softer, but in the old days, if you said a thing like that, that was punishable by death. Yeah, but you're not saying you're not threatening them. A lot of people are interpreting there's a threat in their security. I'm not threatening them, but I think they're in serious trouble. I would say they're in serious trouble.

So your thoughts about as this exchange heats up? I think it's good that you got some clarification from him because the stuff that came out on social media was like, whoa, whoa, that went 0 to 100 very quickly. And you've got these members out there now saying that they're getting death threats, which I think unfortunately has become the norm for a lot of people on both sides of the aisle. People are just way ratcheted up. But you know, like Senate Majority Leader Soon said, it was unnecessarily provocative.

When you go out there and you put out a video like this, what is a 19-year-old kid? Who is in the military supposed to think, like, oh no, am I going to end up in trouble if I don't get this right? Am I supposed to say no to something? I mean, that's what you're telegraphing. And also, if you're going to say that, give us the specific law that you're talking about.

Give us the specific decision from the president you're talking about. Otherwise, it turns into what we're doing right now. Did they break the law in doing that? Did they break the law in saying that? Yeah.

In that tape, did you think that they were? I didn't think so. If you're telling somebody not to obey an illegal order, I think everybody in this discussion already agrees you're not supposed to obey an illegal order and you do have the right to say no. I mean, that already exists. It's not like they're creating some new right that didn't already exist and that everybody who's arguing about this didn't already understand.

So do you think they wanted this publicity? Like, do you think they're reveling Slotnick and Jason Crow as they have to. You do. You'd think they'd benefit from it.

Well, I think that, you know, I think that they like to lay traps and lay baits. And listen, I think the President is always very thoughtful about where he's going with things.

So I don't think that the White House was just doing this willy-nilly. But man, they took the bait. I mean, this is the kind of thing that there it feels like such an overreaction that even the President's allies are having a hard time defending it. And they're all going to have to talk about that instead of the jobs report they got yesterday, which they said they want to focus on the economy and finally got a bit of bright news. And instead, they're talking about this.

So, who's going to be on your show on Sunday?

So, we're going to have Senator Mark Warner, the ranking Dem on Senate Intel, and we've also got GOP Senator Eric Schmidt, and we're going to talk about all these issues. We've also got a legal panel because I thought it was necessary with everything going on with James Comey and the Epstein files, and whether the president can use the National Guard or not. We thought that would be a lot of fun. Yeah, and keep going. We're going to talk about legal.

So, that's what we're going to do. All right. So, the other thing that I think is important, I think the Epstein files have become the biggest boomerang in American history. Be careful what you asked. I'm just telling you, you read this stuff, and now a lot of this stuff has been out already.

They don't even realize it. It was part of an overall investigation, 300-plus pages, and there was no other person involved with these women in these reports. There was no other male figure except for the despicable Jeffrey Epstein.

Well, and so you kind of manage expectations. People keep getting their hopes up. And I mean, listen, maybe there's a stunner of something we've never seen before because this is supposed to involve plea deals and agreements. That kind of stuff. Maybe there is something new.

But if there's not, people are going to be still demanding more stuff. But if you're getting everything you're going to get, you know, I talked to Alan Derschwitz. I'm sure you have too. He was one of Epstein's attorneys and said, there's no list. There's no black book.

There's no list of schedules and of names and of phone numbers. Like you're not going to find that thing.

So people have to understand that they may be getting their hopes up and what they get is not going to meet up. But isn't it kind of weird that you just said that? Instead of saying there might be a lot in there, this is really what Democrats want. Their hopes up to find out that Donald Trump was working with Jeffrey Epstein.

Well, I think we all know that's not going to happen. But that's what I mean. But they need to be careful for who on their team is going to maybe turn up in there too. And there are worries, as you know, from people all over this political spectrum that people who didn't do anything wrong, their names are going to be in emails or in text or something. Just because they ran in the same circles, they're in Palm Beach or they knew Epstein just like Trump.

They're going to be pictures. And there are real concerns that people who never knew anything about these young women never knew. Met one of them, never had contact, never knew what Epstein was up to, their names are going to be dragged into this. Yeah, like William Burns, that future, at that point, future CIA director, is meeting with Epstein. You know what he wants?

He wants a job. He's like, I hear you're very connected. I could do a lot in financial and security. Evidently, let's just say what he said. But now, William Burns is in the Epstein files.

It was like, oh my goodness, the CIA director, what's going on? What does that mean? Yes.

It means that Epstein. He doesn't mean that he knew anything about these young women or ever interacted with them or anything else.

So D's and Rs have to know they're going to be Ds and R's names. that are potentially going to come out and they may have nothing to do with it, but it's going to give ammunition for the opposing side to drag them. The most disingenuous thing is RoConna and Tom Massey. They have to get to the bottom of it. But they had no interest.

For the previous four years or six years or eight years, got to get to the bottom. But we do it for the victims. Really? Only these years, only this year, because one wants to run for president, the other one wants to keep his job. And this has been going on for a long, long, long time.

If you go back and look at the Epstein stuff from 10, 15, 20 years ago, there's been plenty of opportunity for people if they wanted to dig into these things and shed some sunlight, which I think is a great idea, but where was the motivation? You know, five, ten years ago. Go get him, Shannon Bream and watch on Sunday. And I'll see you Sunday night. Yes, Sunday night.

We have Tom Cotton, we have Mike Waltz, we have Harry. Harry Cole, who's talking about the BBC situation because he wants to be the next editor there. He works for The Sun. And we have somebody, a deep thinker. Uh Walter Isaacson.

That's going to be fantastic. We're going to learn new things, and there's going to be a dance party at the end, as you promised. Wish I could. I wish I could. I just.

Every week I'm going to ask until it comes true. All right. Thank you so much, Jeff. Bye bye-bye. Back in a moment.

Real talk, real guests, real insight, where curiosity meets conversation. It's the Brian Killmeat Show. The talk show that's getting you talking. You're with Brian Kilmead. But Hamas says they're not putting down their weapons.

What could you do to get us to Phase II in this effort to have peace?

Well, we're going to see. Let's take a look at Hamas what they do because we just started that process. Let's see what happens. I will say this. We have now peace in the Middle East.

We have countries signed on. We have so many countries that are signed on. In fact, it changes every single day. Countries are being added. There's never been a time like this in the Middle East.

You have peace in the Middle East.

Now you have Hamas. which has has been you know, beaten very badly. You have Iran, which has been beaten very badly, and their nuclear capability taken away, and they want to make a deal, and we probably will make a deal with Iran. Okay.

So the president's not going to get worried about it, but he's got his team out there every single day. They're all set up. They're really trying to orchestrate the landing of the plane of Gaza, and they're going to take the areas that don't have violence and they'll rebuild those areas and keep marginalizing Hamas. But they've got to move quickly. That's the point.

But they have buy-in from other Middle East partners. Quick thing. What made America great? It's got a brand new season. If you go to Fox Nation, and especially this weekend, you got 35, 40 minutes.

You don't have to sit down there like Ken Burns for two hours, three hours. And you got the FDR Museum, you have NORAD Inside the Side of a Mountain, what they're all about. How that really affects us. You also have the crossing of the Delaware, Washington's crossing, you know, over in New Jersey. And then you also have the Battle of Gettysburg.

So these are just some of the features that are on what made America great as we get ready to celebrate 250. Also, Field of Valor. You know how many athletes, great athletes at their times, not just Pat Tillman of our times that were drafted or chose to sign up. In the middle of their professional sports careers, from Ted Williams on down, it's a brand new season of Field of Valor.

So, for sports fans, you're gonna like to see this side of the guy you like. Uh and one of which and women. And one of which is Yogi Bera, who was in on D-Day while we can catch up with the Yankees. All right, when we come back, Jason Chaffis joins us, Brian Killmicho. He's so busy, he'll make your head spin.

It's Brian Killmead. This is not only how we stop Trump. It's how we stop the next one.

So Donald Trump. Since I know you're watching. Yeah. I have four. Words for you.

Turn the volume. Volume up.

Well, I was hitting them a little hard too, in all fairness. I was, uh, you know. Hard to be totally friendly toward the opponent. You know, his opponent wasn't he had some interesting opponents. But he ran a good race.

I don't know exactly what he means by turn the volume up, because turn the volume up. He has to be careful when he says that to me. Jason Davis joins us now. I mean, I hadn't heard turn the volume up, and everyone told me it means bring it on. Turn the volume up.

Bring it on. I'm ready for you. Jason Chafe, it's your thoughts. Did anyone ever tell you to turn the volume up? Yeah, well, look, I think it's a whole different world.

You can get those political muscles going. But when you're sitting in the Oval Office on the President's terms, I think there needs to be a degree of Um You gotta be magnanimous. You gotta be. Uh rise to the moment. Uh that kinda Political rhetoric ain't going to fly, not with the president.

I think the president will be very professional. He'll be very nice to him. He'll give him a chance. But he's not going to put up with that garbage. And I think the two points of contention are going to be the one hundred seventeen billion dollar New York City budget, and the number two is going to be ICE and how we do law enforcement and getting criminal illegal aliens off of our streets.

Those two points are the President's not going to put up with much there. But they're not going to cooperate. He said that yesterday that, oh, when it comes to what Eric Adams was doing, giving the president run, letting Tom Holman and his crew run, that's not going to happen.

So it's just interesting. He was asked that. And he was also asked about, in these local interviews, supposed to be layups for him. He was asked about his whole free bus thing. Listen to this: cut five.

How are you getting that money, the $700 million to make the buses free, into the MCA if she's not for raising taxes? You know, I think that the two clearest ways to raise that money is through the raising of the state's corporate tax to match the New Jersey. I think that a lot of this is still a case to be made. Whether it's the corporate tax, whether it's the personal income tax on those who make more than a million dollars a year or more, I think that these are the clearest ways. I've also said that if there are other ways to raise this funding, the most important fact is that we fund it, not the question of how we do it, but that we do it.

Well, in that convenience. Hey, we just got to fund it. I can, I guess, borrow from rich people. Oh, that's right. I hate rich people.

Remember, he wants to end billionaires.

So, how are you going to fund it if you're not going to fund it?

Well, you know, that's a question we answered later. Look, I think he's setting himself up for one of the biggest failures because I think the expectation from New Yorkers is when you promise root beer and all the drinking fountains, and suddenly you got to start paying for it, and the people who pay the taxes decide, nah. Florida and Texas look a whole lot better, then he's going to have a real funding problem. That's why I think he's got to count on if he loses federal funding or has to get in a squabble over that, there's another thing coming.

Something's going to have to give. And I worry about the law enforcement side of it probably as much as anything because I think people in this country have the right to be safe and secure in their persons, and that's not where he's taking us. I know. But what about this tape? That you know, you know, these guys, Mark Kelly, Alyssa Slotkin, Jason Crowe.

Listen to this, cut eight. The threats to our Constitution aren't just coming from abroad, but from right here at home. Our laws are clear. You can refuse illegal orders. You can refuse illegal orders.

You get it? I'm not going to play it. What were you thinking when you see it, when you heard it or watched it? And what do you think now? I thought it bordered on treason.

I think when you can't point to a single time where the president has violated the law, I think it's a wink and a nod and an encouragement for people who are susceptible to maybe slowing things down or not doing what the president orders to do. I don't want to do it. I'm a Jordan operator. I don't want to blow up that boat. Look, I will tell you, almost on a daily basis, a president will privately sign executive orders that move troops, they move submarines, they do certain things on the world stage that your rank-and-file airman or somebody out in the ocean isn't going to understand or see.

Your job is not to go get a lawyer up and go figure out whether or not the president's doing it legally and lawfully. Your job is to do what the chain of command tells you. To do.

So tell me if you think there's something to this. John Kiracow, who is a former CIA guy, he got himself in trouble because he came out against enhanced interrogation tactics. This is what he said because Slatnick started this. Right. And she's CIA.

Cut fourteen. This is right out of the CIA playbook. This is exactly what we were trained to do in those years that we were getting ready to go into the field. You're trained to destabilize. You're trained to make people distrust each other.

And here it is playing out on Capitol Hill. How ironic is it that when I blew the whistle on the CIA's illegal torture program, it was the Democrats who put me in prison? And now they want people to stand up because this president is the threat to democracy? Please, the hypocrisy just makes me shake my head. Yeah, I buy all those comments.

I think that's exactly right. You know, I see the parallel here with the spying, the spying on Jim Jordan. I see the spying that happened against our Dick Frost, but it goes back to the Obama administration. Look, I had 40 Secret Service officers come after me illegally because I was the chairman and I was grilling their boss. 40 Secret Service agents.

Nothing happened to those people. How about when they spied on the Associated Press? How about Peter Rosen? Again, James Rosen, sorry. They talk a big game, but those are illegal activities, and I didn't hear them say peep about that.

So I want to bring you to this. I wasn't doing much with the Epstein investigation, but I think it's going to be the ultimate boomerang in the history of politics. They really think Trump was the problem. Like he is Jeffrey Epstein, and they would determine Tom Massey's dispicable Rocana. And others, we got to get justice for these women.

Yeah, the women are the issue. Absolutely. Who are older now, we're younger, we're too young then. Got it. But you weren't interested at all four years ago, six years ago, eight years ago.

So Jasmine Crockett got up And she just said, hey, Republicans, stop being, you know, because Larry Summers is in trouble. You have. Uh You have Bill Gates is in trouble. You got the lawyer for Goldman Sachs is in trouble. Their names are in terrible situations.

Obviously, Bill Clinton. Here's what Jasmine Crockett tries to push back with: cut 20. Folks who also took money from somebody named Jeffrey Epstein, as I had my team dig in very quickly. Mitt Romney. The NRCC.

Lee Zeldon. George Bush, Wynne Red. McCain Palin. Rick Lazio. I just want to be clear.

If this is the standard that we're going to make, just know we're going to expose it all. Hey, more power to you. If your lead is Mitt Romney, you're probably marking up the wrong tree. Yeah, Mitt Romney was the big problem on the retail. He's always been a discipline issue.

Oh, yeah, it's a big, big problem. We've known about that.

So the problem is with Lise Elden, as you know, is Lise Eldon got money from his Manhasset New York doctor. I'm Emmin Hassett, for I think a small amount of money, who goes by the name Dr. Jeffrey Epstein. Because that's his name. It's a pretty common name.

So she was called out by Lee Zeldon.

So Jasmine Crockett goes on CNN and has to defend it. Listen to this: cut 21. I never said that it was that Jeffrey Epstein.

So, my team, what they did is they Googled, and that is specifically why I said A Jeffrey Epstein. Unlike Republicans, I at least don't go out and just tell lies. Because it was not the same one, that's fine. But he admitted that he did receive donations from a Jeffrey Epstein.

So at least I wasn't trying to mislead people.

Now, have I dug in to find out who this doctor is? I have not.

So I will trust and take what he says. I literally had maybe 20 minutes before I had to do that debate.

So she was rushed.

So I how dare you rush her? But so I googled it. And it was Jeffrey Epstein, just not the one we were talking about. It was on the internet, so it had to be true enough that I could put my reputation online. Never mind that evidently a donation or two or whatever came in years after Jeffrey Epstein died.

Yeah. You know, and so don't let facts get in the way. It's that it's one of the things. What about her explanation, Jason? I mean, just it's a classic case they should teach us in school about how to make a bad situation worse.

They say that I Googled it. I was right. I was in a rush. I had to go to Jeffrey Epstein.

Okay.

Number one, I got it wrong, but I was right in getting it wrong. And number two is like, it's not my fault I was in a rush.

Okay, was it mine? To do what? No one said quickly, get Republican names. That's your idea. And you felt like you were rushed.

By the way, I hear she's brutal with her staff. Can you imagine the staffer that got her the wrong Jeffrey Epstein? Do you think she was understanding?

Well, she only had 20 minutes, evidently, to do that. To try to get rid of the talking points for those horrible Republicans.

So this is, I think, going to be the ultimate boomerang. I'm looking right now at William Burns, former CIA director, meeting with Jeffrey Epstein multiple times. Hakeem Jeffries, Jeffrey Epstein, was asked to go to one of his fundraisers.

Now, do you think Bill Clinton says he responded to the subpoena? No. He testified? Because they were going to do that. James Comer put out a thing today saying, hey, no, you haven't responded.

You do have to come in for this deposition. And the difference here from like when I was there is that he has a Republican Pambondi-led Attorney General and you have Janine Pirro. When you have somebody who doesn't comply with a subpoena, it goes to the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. That's Janine Perrot.

Do you think she's going to want to enforce that subpoena? I'm guessing, yes. I'm guessing yes.

So, yeah, but what if he says I don't feel well? I mean, he could say medical reasons. I don't know.

Well, you can you can if you can Do these in a hospital bed if that's really where you're at?

So, do you think?

So, think about this. Do you know that the Clintons are saying, Are you serious? Are you guys really pushing this? Because they know they're going to be caught in the crossfire. They voted on it.

Now they're out there all on the record on it. They thought they had Trump, but again, they didn't do their homework. Trump distanced himself from Epsy a long, long time ago. I think he was on to. This guy being a really bad guy kicked him out of Mar-a-Lago, for instance, you know, a long, long time ago.

Right. So, I mean, it's Harvey Weinstein, it's Bill Cosby, it's O.J. Simpson. You think they're good guys? Once they end up being double murderers, child molesters, whatever it is.

So you go, wow, okay. But now all of a sudden, all these papers are going to come out and they're going to say, what are you doing? Like this rummiller, rum miller with this famous attorney, well-known attorney for Goldman Sachs, how did she keep her job? She said going back and forth with Epstein after he was to prison and got out again, and they're talking about calling Bill Clinton. And going on a trip.

And when Bill Clinton, when they said, should we call him? he goes, Well, as a lawyer, I probably wouldn't recommend he comes with us.

So she knew exactly the jeopardize. How do you keep your job? Look, here's the thing. Bill Clinton, as a former president, has lifetime secret service. They have records.

They know everywhere he's been, every place he's been. probably even have records as to who he met with. And so They got to be really careful in the cross-referencing. That if the Department of Justice really wanted to, they could compare those records to whatever testimony he has. And he's got to know that.

They're the Secret Service, but they're still law enforcement. And those rules go away if you've been breaking the law, which is the allegation. Do you know Thomas Massey? I do very well. And your thoughts?

He doesn't necessarily always think these things through the way I would. He's a nice guy. Isn't he like a scientist? He is a very accomplished.

So I have to get to the bottom of this. He goes, why? Because he's upset at. uh Trump. But evidently he's going to keep his seat, it was explained to me, because He got a bridge built in Maryland.

And uh got it built without having tolls on it.

So everyone in the area loves him for it.

So that's why he keeps getting re-elected.

Well, he's in Kentucky and it's a ver I mean, the Kentucky's the same place that You know, they elect Rand Paul too.

So that libertarian streak that he has bodes does does well for him there. Yeah, what are you going to be on today? Uh, so I'm going to be on the big uh the big uh weekend show over the weekend, but I'm on on Will Kane later this afternoon, and then I'm I'm guest hosting, uh, filling in with uh for the um The bottom line with Dagon McDowell.

So you know who's hosting Will Kane today? Yes.

I'm really worried about it, actually. Do you know who it is? Yeah. I think this guy named Brian Killmead. Yes, at four o'clock.

So I'll be hosting with you. Don't have an attitude or chip on your shoulder. Bring your A game, or I'll throw you out early. I'll just go to break. They told me: do push-ups.

Be ready. Have a lot of caffeine. Be ready. We're not sitting at a desk. We are walking the entire time.

I better change. Put on sneakers. Jason Chapis, thanks so much. Thank you. Great to see you.

From breaking news to big name guests, Brian brings you insight you won't hear anywhere else. You're listening to the Brian Kill Meat Show. Information you want, truth you demand. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. But you know that if you don't stop him in Ukraine, he's going to have problems.

They're going to be another, the Baltics are going to be in trouble. No, they'll be stopped. He's not looking for more war. Look, he's taking punishment. Say what you want.

I mean, this was supposed to be a one-day war that ended four years now, okay? But in all fairness, We gave them the best military equip. We make the best equipment in the world. We gave We gave Ukraine the best military equipment anywhere in the world. Nobody makes, and we gave them a lot of it.

But Somebody had to use that equipment. And say what you want, they were very brave. Do you agree with that? They're great fighters. They're great fighters.

And the other thing, Mr. President, you're not pulling off the sanctions while you wait on the twenty-eight-point plan because it seems like every time you Vladimir Putin wants you to stop.

So what happens is today Luke Oil and RossNet They are the two big companies. They have now been heavily sanctioned, and now India stops buying because they're not allowed to buy because of the sanctions.

So that's why Vladimir Putin, in my view, tells his people to contact Steve Woodkoff. And they have a 28-point plan, much of which is not acceptable. But I'm all for sitting down and making it better. Cut back their army two-thirds? Why would Russia care if Ukraine's army is big or not?

They're not afraid. Ukraine's not going to invade Russia. Oh, you just want a smaller army to be able to beat them next time because you can't beat them this time. Give up on long-range missiles. Why are you worried about that?

Do you think that Ukraine's going to get in the middle of the night out of nowhere and start bombing Moscow? No. The long-range missiles have basically brought the Moscow energy sector to its knees. Oh, I need all of Donbass. Oh, I haven't won it yet.

And I haven't been able to do that in four years, nor did I do it in the invasion in 2014 under Obama. But give it to them? Of course you can't do that. 28 points. It can't go into NATO.

NATO can't station troops there. European fighter jets will be stationed in Poland, not there. Ukraine will receive reliable security guarantees, but what are they? You're not allowed to have NATO troops there. The French says he'll be there, they're part of NATO, and the UK will be there, they're part of NATO, so what's going on?

There will be a comprehensive non-aggression agreement which will be concluded between Russia, Ukraine, and Europe. All ambiguities of the last thirty years will be considered settled. That's fine with us. Euromania is not going to invade Russia. Romania is not going to invade Poland.

Moldova is not going to be a option in power. And a threat to Germany. It's all Russia. Why are we pretending like both sides are equal? It's not.

Ukraine was invaded. They are much tougher, much stronger, much more innovative. They have to drag people off the streets. Do you know they're going into Africa and they're good making soldiers fight for them like indentured servants? Yemen putting in Yemen fighters, I guess People that couldn't make the Houthi category come in.

And then you have North Korea report for duty. Ukraine is eligible for EU membership. I guess they're okay with that, so that's fine. The World Bank will develop a special financing package to accelerate the efforts to get Ukraine up and running again. I think that's great.

Russia will be reintegrated into the global economy. Fine, if you can be trusted. The lifting of sanctions will be discussed and agreed upon in stages.

So a lot has to happen, but I love that it's moving. It costs us a lot of money, costs Ukraine a lot of lives. The other thing important to point out is Ukraine aims for structures. energy structures. Russia aims for innocent people.

Buses. Apartment buildings, schools. Kidnap children. We really pretending like this is a even thing? Trump's got to come in and he's got to fix this, because Steve Witkoff can't do it.

So hopefully, people say, okay, we'll take some of this and we'll fix the rest of this. Don't forget, One Nation Sunday night at 10 o'clock. Amongst my guests, Mike Waltzinger, Tom Cotton, Walter Isaacson, Carly Shimkiss, and so much more. Brian Kilmichelle.
