This is Brian Kilmeat Show coming your way special edition. We're lucky enough to get on a regular basis. The President of the United States calling in, whether he's a candidate or he's actually president, he comes in and often is very candid, makes a ton of news. No exception this time, as we look back at some of those moments in teaking with the president, as he previewed his big Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin and where we go from here when it comes to PC Ukraine. Here's segment one of my hour-long interview with President Trump.
Mr. President, thanks so much for joining us. Truly appreciate it. 24 hours before your Alaska summit. What's your mindset?
Yeah.
Well, I'm going to go there and I'm representing a lot of people and especially people that are being killed unnecessarily, like five to seven thousand soldiers a week. They're not Americans, but their lives, their souls. And if I can stop something I've stopped six wars this year. Yeah, this was going to be one of my easy ones, but it never worked out that way. This turns out to be probably the most difficult.
I stopped one. That was raging for 35 years, one that r was raging in the Congo with Rwanda, you know that for 31 years. And uh this one was is raging for three and a half years and I'm not happy about it. It's ridiculous, and I we're going to get it stopped. We're going to get it stopped.
I inherited this from Joe Biden. But we're going to get it stopped.
So, Vladimir Putin just spoke, and I have the readout. If I could share it with you, he's just said: the American administration, which as everyone knows, is making, in my opinion, quite energetic and sincere efforts to stop the hostilities, stop the crisis, and reach agreements that are in the interest of all parties involved in this conflict in order to create long-term conditions of peace between our countries and in Europe and in the world as a whole. If we reach agreements in the area of control over strategic offensive weapons, at the next stage, and then it's cut off.
So he seems to be in the right mindset going in. How will you know? If he's in the mindset for a ceasefire and a long-term end to the conflict.
Well, I think you'll know that in the first uh couple of minutes, but I think you already know that because he's coming to Alaska, he's coming to the USA and I think you know that. I think that's a nice statement. I just heard it. You gave me a little breaking news. I appreciate it.
But I think he wants to get it done. I really feel he. He wanted the whole thing. I think if it weren't me, if it were somebody else, he would be not talking to anybody. He wasn't talking.
When I was. Previous to being elected. Unfortunately, the twenty twenty election where we did so well Uh it was very unfortunate, the result. But what happened is when I came in, I realized, I said, this is a man that really wants the whole thing. And I think he does want the whole thing, and I think he has wanted the whole thing.
But because of a certain relationship that he has with me running this country. He's He really I I believe now he's Convinced that he's going to make a deal. He's going to make a deal. I think he's going to, and we're going to find out. I'm going to know very quickly.
We're going to go into the meeting. We're gonna see him, we're gonna I won't do what Bush did, look him in the eye. I'm not going to do that. I'll look him right in the eye, but I. a little bit differently than Bush.
It didn't work out too well for Bush. Remember this, Brian. Under Bush, they lost a lot of land. Under Obama, they lost a lot of land, Crimea. Under Biden, they would have lost the whole thing if he had won the President.
They would have lost the entire Ukraine. The war started and raging. It would have never started if I was president, not even a chance. And it didn't for four years. You know that.
Nobody ever even talked about it. Uh but uh under Trump, you know what they got? Nothing. They got nothing. Except javelins.
Except javelins hitting their tanks. And lots of other things. And remember this, I was the one that stopped Nord Stream too. You know, they always like to say, oh, Trump won Putin. Oh, Trump is.
Uh working for Putin, you know, these crooked people, which they just found out now is old, they should they should be prosecuted. They're so disgra you know, disgraceful. But They made up stories. As Putin knows, I'm the toughest one that he's ever had to deal with. He's never had to deal with any.
Anybody like me, and here's the other thing, Brian. They got nothing out of Trump, they got no land. They didn't do a Bush, they didn't do an Obama and they didn't do a Biden.
So, the way I understand it, Mr. President, it's hard to find out exactly what's going on in Russia. That's just by the way, they're made up. Even the people of Russia don't know what's going on. It looks like 45 percent of their economy is military oriented.
Their factories are so depleted. They're having North Koreans work the factories and do their fighting. Do you believe that by saying shrinking down from 50 to 10 days and just a handful of days was that threat is the reason why Steve Witkoff heard from them that they wanted to meet? Do you think that's the reason we're having this meeting in Alaska? Because you're about to put on sanctions?
I think it everything has an impact. When I told India, and which essentially took them out of buying oil from Russia. That we're going to charge you a because you're dealing with Russia and oil purchases. India was the second largest and getting pretty close to China. China's the largest.
And as you know, there was something in the works for that. And then they called and they wanted to meet. We're going to see what the meeting means. But certainly, when you lose your second largest customer and you're probably going to lose your first largest customer, I think that probably has a role. I think he respects our country now.
He didn't respect it under Biden. He respected, nobody respected us under Biden. But he respects our country now. And we have the hottest country anywhere in the world. We had a country, the market's raging.
Look at the reports coming out. Everybody's moving back to the United States, car companies, AI companies. Everybody's moving back. They're all starting their factories now. We've never had anything like this.
It is truly the golden age of America, but he respects our country now. He did not respect our country with Biden. Who did? I know you're a big athlete. You not only watch sports, you play sports.
You always have to try to pre-think what's going to happen. You have to picture how it's going to happen so you know how you act.
So, the one thing that some people have said is the incentive that could get his attention is economic incentives. Are you walking in that room? with economic incentives for Russia in order to stop the fighting.
Well, I'd rather not say because I don't want to play my hand in public, but whatever my hand is, economic incentives and disincentives, maybe you're more important in a way, but incentives economically. You know, Russia's got a tremendous potential. They have the largest piece of land by far. Right. It's massive.
It's got great wealth on it. But all they do is oil. All they do is oil and gas. They can't even gre they they can't even farm. But that's okay.
Oil and gas is a very profitable business. That's better than I make shirts, T-shirts, oil and gas. If you say that's all they do, that's if you're going to have one business that's good, that's the business to have, and they have it.
So they have a lot of advantages going over most countries because of the fact they have oil and gas at massive numbers like we do. And uh yeah, economic uh economic uh sanctions are very powerful and economic incentives are very powerful, both. Mark Thiessen, who I know you respect from the Washington Post, writes this: Vladimir Putin's goal is to buy more time. To avoid that trap, all President Trump has to do is hold firm to his stated position that both sides need to agree on a ceasefire now. He will push for a partial or sectional ceasefire.
That would be worse than no ceasefire because it would give Russia a military advantage. Your thoughts on his conclusions?
Well, he's a very talented person. And I think he's a real journalist. He want to give you the highest I want to give him the highest accolades. I have a lot of respect for him, Mark. I read him.
I'll talk to him every once in a while and he has some good thoughts. And so I don't know that we're going to get an immediate ceasefire, but I think it's going to come see, I'm more interested in immediate peace deals, getting peace fast. And depending on what happens with my meeting, I'm going to be calling up President Zielinski, and let's get him over to wherever we're going to meet. I don't know where we're going to have the second meeting. But we have an idea of three different locations.
Uh and will be including the possibility because it would be by far the easiest of staying in Alaska. You know, we have We have big flights of uh and here's the same thing, we have a lot of planes going when The head of Russia, the head of the United States, et cetera, et cetera.
So, Mr. President, did you tell Zelensky to be ready? Did you tell him to be ready to come? Should you start making legitimate progress? I don't want to talk about a second meeting, even to him.
I don't want to even indicate there might be a second meeting. Maybe there will, maybe there wouldn't.
So I don't want to talk to that. It's not important enough. But it would be certainly convenient. If we had a very good meeting, because I'm going to let them negotiate their deal. I'm not going to negotiate their deal.
I'm going to let them negotiate their deal.
So we're going to be calling President Zelensky if it's a good meeting. If it's a bad meeting, I'm not calling anybody. I'm going home. I'll call you. I'll do Fox and Friends some morning and we'll have a lot of fun.
But if it's a good meeting, I'm going to call President Zelensky and the European leaders who, as you know, have a very good relationship where they agreed to pay 5%, and nobody thought they'd even pay 2%. They were paying two, but they weren't paying it, a lot of them.
So, and they're paying five. They're very unified. I've never seen anything like it. Nobody can believe. what we did.
I saved NATO. I saved it the first time. And made it very rich the second time.
So it's, you know, it's quite an achievement, I think. Yeah, I know you were on with him for about an hour yesterday, but just on what you were saying, the way I understand it, Caroline Levitt had joined Fox and Friends today, and she said the format is, if I got it right, is you're going to meet and there's going to be a press conference after. Will you be shoulder to shoulder with Vladimir Putin again last time with Helsinki? We haven't. I thought we had a great press conference last time.
It was the fake news, tried to make it bad. in particular MSDNC. They tried to make it bad. These are very dishonest people, but it was a great news conference, you know. It was rated phenomenal and then about two, three, four hours later they came up with this stupid scheme About me and Russia, and what did we say at the meeting, and you know, where do we get the tapes, you know, the old sort of.
But uh no, I thought we had a great uh meeting. And don't forget, we're under a lot of pressure 'cause we had the Russia hoax going on.
So I told him, I said, you know, it's going to be very hard. And he told me, too, he understood it. I said, it's going to be very hard for us to make an economic deal. Economic development deal of any kind because I have the Russia hoax going on. And anything I do with Russia.
I'm owned by uh Putin, you know, which is not Not even closer.
So, Mr. President, you are going to have a press conference today after the meeting, correct? I'm going to have a press conference. I don't know if it's going to be a joint. We haven't even discussed it.
I think it might be nice to have a joint and then separates.
So something like that will happen. Or if the meeting doesn't end well, I'll just have a press conference and Head out. I'll head back to Washington.
So, yeah, if it's not positive, you might head back. Is there any situation? If it's not positive, I will head back. Oh, I know that. I mean, you'll just head right back.
You won't have the press conference. I know you're coming back. But um, no, I would say I'll have a press conference in either event. Uh, if it's a negative, I'll have a press conference to say that. And the war is going to go on and these people are horribly going to continue to shoot each other and kill each other.
And I think it's a disgrace. And I'll head back to Washington, or I'll have a press conference with that spositive. You know, in doing six wars, I mean, six wars, think of it. And I obliterated, and now the term obliterated can be used because the Atomic Energy Commission, everybody said total obliteration. These pilots did a phenomenal job.
CNN and their fake reporter tried to, who's just a scammer. CNN tried to say that, well, maybe the hit wasn't quite as good. Maybe it wasn't obliteration. Maybe anything to hurt people. Anything to demean.
And in this case, they were demeaning the incredible people that flew in an airplane for thirty six hours back and forth And did one of the most perfect attacks in the history of our country. No, it was a total obliteration. And of course, him talking about Iran, we had a great conversation with President Trump. It won about 40 minutes. You just heard about 17.
When we come back, among the things we'll talk about is what would failure be like? Is there any scenario where this meeting in Alaska would be a failure? It's the best of the Brian Kill Me Show. Hi, everyone. It's Brian Kilmead here.

It made me think about how I should upgrade my security to keep away the porch pirates and keep my deliveries safe. I went with Simply Safe because it's proactive. Traditional systems react after a break-in.
SimplySafe can help stop a crime before it starts. That's because Simply Safe keeps your home safe with a double layer of defense. First, you got cameras detecting potential threats, and then live agents confront them while they're still on the outside of your home before they have a chance to do any damage, telling them they're on camera and telling them the police will be dispatched if they do not leave. That's right, if they don't leave. That's why I trust Simply Safe at my place to help protect my family.
Keep an eye on the dogs and watch those deliveries because real security stops crime before it starts. Right now is such a good time to get Simply Safe. This month only get 50% off any new system. Go to simplysafe.com/slash Brian. Again, that's simplysafe.com/brian.
Brian, there's no safe like simply safe. We are back. Here's a little more of my interview with President Donald Trump. And I asked him flat out, you know, about the Alaska Summit, the risks of doing it. Is there a way that you're going to do this and say, man, it was not worth my time?
Listen. Is there any scenario where Where Donald Trump will look at this meeting in Alaska and say, this was not worth it. I failed. Yeah.
Twenty-five percent. And you would say, you would say that. If he just says, hey, I'm going to stay with me. I've got to get all the time and energy and went over there, and we didn't come out with. In a short period of time, not from this meeting.
This meeting sets up the second meeting. The second meeting is going to be very, very important because that's going to be a meeting where they Make a deal, and I don't want to use the word divvy things up, but you know, to a certain extent, it's not a bad term, okay? But there will be a give and take as to boundaries, lands, et cetera, et cetera. The second meeting is going to be very, very important. This meeting sets up Like a chess game.
This meeting sets up. The second meeting. But there is a twenty-five percent chance that this meeting will not be a successful meeting, in which case. Uh I will run the country and we have made America great again already in six months. And you'll hit them with consequences, right?
You'll hit them with more sanctions. The Senate sanctions go front and center if if he disresp yeah Oh, sure. If if it's not so, I'll look again. We didn't lose any soldiers. We didn't lose Anybody?
But this was a war. If I didn't get in here, this could have been World War III. I'm telling you, Biden had no idea, he had no clue what was happening. This was getting so bad. And at a minimum, I've calmed it way down.
So way, way down. But they're still losing thousands of soldiers a week, and we have to get that taken care of.
So in Washington, D.C. you did something substantial, and that is put the National Guard in, Federalized Troops, got rid of the Sanctuary City status, and for 30 days you're trying to bring some semblance of order, extreme order, to Washington, D.C. I want you to hear what the mayor said about what you're doing. This is Mayor Muriel Bowser. And here's what she said, cut to.
To do what we can in our space, in our lane, to protect our city and to protect our autonomy and get to the other side of this guy. Make sure we elect the Democratic House so that we have a backstop to this authoritarian push. She's not welcoming the additional. Law enforcement.
Well, she actually is, but she doesn't want to say it, okay? Because crime in Washington, D.C. is totally out of control, worse than ever. And as you know, they fired or something happened to the person that does the stats because they want him. him in this case, I think, to do stats which were much better in terms of crime.
And they were changing crimes to, you know, this kind of a crime, that kind of a crime doesn't get counted anymore and all that stuff.
So you don't believe those stats? It's actually worse. It's worse now than ever before. You know that. Anybody that lives here knows that I have never had so many calls Thanking me.
I tell you. And I look at those streets, and those streets are safe, and they're going to be very safe in a week or so. Look what I did at the border. I had millions of people coming in the year before. Think of it, millions and millions of people.
And within a without legislation, you know, Biden said we have to get legislation changed. You didn't need anything. It was just an excuse for incompetence. The last three months, Brian. We had zero People.
It was a zero, zero and zero. Even I find that hard to believe. But it's like you know, it's like somebody did it. And I hear the people that do it are the same people that were doing the BLS and all the other different things that they do with the fake reports. But you know what?
They gave it a zero. I'll take it. But essentially, it's very close to zero. We're at zero for for ninety days now. Nobody believes it's even the Republicans campaign.
I'm getting calls from senators and congressmen and women that are saying that's amazing. But that is frankly. I believe it's more difficult than what we have here. But we have inherently some very, very dangerous people living in Washington, D.C., and we got to get them out. And the president's focusing on doing just that.
President of the United States, 45th and 47th, giving us some quality time today. When we come back, you're going to hear more from him, not only talking about what happened with Russia, but we also move on and talk about what's happening with crime in other cities, with Governor Gavin Newsom giving him such a hard time when it comes to gerrymandering and how the Republicans have a lot more cards to play. And the President fully realizes that. Along with A refugee or someone being held wrongly in China, and what the president can do to get this self-made billionaire out who's a real friend of the West. You'll hear all that and more when you listen to the Brian Killmee Show, more with President Trump right after this.

So we know about the whole push with gerrymandering. Democrats made a cottage industry of it.
Now Republicans, led by Donald Trump, are pushing back. I talked to the President of the United States about gerrymandering and the thought about retaliatory action with other blue states. Here's what he said. Mr. President, do you think that putting these troops in there and this Democratic mayor is not necessarily embracing at least publicly, and what you did in Los Angeles, despite that the governor didn't want it and the mayor didn't want it, you sent in backups, Marines and National Guard.
Do you think that might force Democratic cities to crack down on crime so you don't have to? Yeah, the good politicians, the smart ones, the sane people will, and the other ones will go out of their way to try and show them that I'm wrong on crime. Look, this is another, you know, they call them 80-20s. I think it's 100 to nothing. But they're going to have to handle it the way they want.
I'm there to help. But if I see a city going bad, I said it last time. Last time, I went right by every perfect little edict and rule. And I'd let the governors run their stuff and they'd run it into the ground. I had that wacko in Minnesota.
You saw what happened in Minneapolis. And if I didn't send in the troops, you wouldn't have Minnesota well, you wouldn't have Minneapolis standing today. You saw how bad it was, but I sent in the troops very late because He wouldn't do it. He wasn't. He was, the whole city was burning down.
That was the wacker that ran for vice president. Governor Wallace. Yeah, he was a real beauty. But again, I said, if I ever do this again, this is what I was thinking about it. I said, I'm going to act before the fact.
I'm not going to act after the fact. And, you know, you see what they did to Portland. You see, it's not going to happen this time.
Now, Gavin Newsom wouldn't have a Los Angeles stand. You know, we have the Olympics coming. That was a part of my thinking there, too. We have the Olympics coming. He just lost 25,000 houses to fires that shouldn't have happened.
It was only because he didn't allow water to come into that part of Los Angeles or, frankly, into California because he cut up the water. They send it out to the Pacific Ocean. But I overrode him. After the fires, I overrode him, and they have water coming down. They should be allowing more.
We're going to go into that next. But Gavin Newsom, if he would have allowed the water, you wouldn't have had a fire. But I said, if I don't send people in, you're not going to have a city for the Olympics. We have the Olympics coming. And the World Cup.
You already have 25,000 houses. And by the way, They're not able to get the permits for them. You know, the federal government with Lee Zeldon is fantastic. The federal government got all the permits and gave them all the federal permits necessary. They can build their houses.
But the state and the city are not getting them the permits after this. And I know that for a fact because I know people out there, only 1% of the permits has been given. It's an embarrassment and they're getting away with it, which is sickening. I want to talk about California. They want to build low-income housing.
They want to take away some of the sites that are owned by people and build low-income housing. You can't do it. You can't destroy the whole beauty of that area. I was there right after the fire, very closely to immediately after the fire, as soon as I felt it was the right time, but immediately. And I met the people.
Many of the, they were all standing in front of their sites. There were literally ashes. The steel was wrapped up in balls. It was like a blowtorch because of the winds. And I went there and I saw every person on two or three streets I went to.
Every family was in front of their house with a yellow cord. You can't go on it. And they said, we want to start immediately, sir. I said, why don't you start? They won't let us.
I gave them the federal permits almost immediately. That's the hardest permit to get, by the way. And they still don't have their permits. And you told Mayor Bass, let them do it. And she said she would.
She wants them to be safe. He goes, they know how to be safe. To me, it was one of your finest moments because she didn't do it. You agree. She said, we'll get them over a two-year period.
Do you remember that? I said, two years, you mean two days. Mr. President, I lost all my stuff there in a fire in Malibu in the 90s, and they still hadn't rebuilt it seven years later. But I want to talk about Gavin Newsom.
We have an incompetent governor. He's an incompetent governor, and the mayor is grossly incompetent. And that worries me because we have the Olympics going there.
Well, you know, Gavin Newson. Taking you on. He thinks that's his best path to being the next president of the United States, in my view. And he posted on X, he gave you a warning instead of Governor Abbott, saying that if you allow Governor Abbott to go through as his gerrymander, he's going to do that in California. He posted this, I guess, trying to take the Trump approach.
Donald Trump, Taco Trump, as many call him, missed the deadline. California will not draw, will now draw new, more beautiful maps. They will be historic and they will end the Trump presidency. The Dems will take back the House in the midterms. What's your take on Gavin's warning that you missed?
Well, Gavin is an incompetent governor. The state has gone to hell. You see what's happened to Los Angeles. And if I didn't send the troops in, you probably wouldn't have much of a Los Angeles standing right now. Those troops did a hell of a job.
And you know who loved it? The sheriff and the police.
Now, after about a week or so, then the sheriff started and said, Well, maybe we can the sheriff, take a look at the sheriff's statement the first day or two. They asked him, Do you need the troops? He said, Absolutely, we can't do this by ourselves.
Now, he changed his tone about two weeks later. It's always great to get the president speaking off the cuff and very comfortable with all the issues. Coming up next, we're going to talk about something really dear to me, and that's my town, which is a bigger story, has a nickname of the Chiefs. Suddenly, that's politically incorrect, and the governor wants to stop it. Not with this president.
We look back at those moments with President Trump. This is the best of Brian Kilmead. Welcome back, everybody. You know, it's my interview with President Trump. He joins the show a lot, and we always appreciate it.
When I see him, he'll say, When am I doing your radio show again? And I say, You just name it, and we go do it.
Now, I look back at some of those better moments as we go through the holiday season, and I asked him about what he remembers about Russia inclusion. I asked him about the farmers in China taking retaliatory action because they're so popular with the Trump team. Here's my interview with Trump. You're saying that hurt U.S.-Russian relations because Putin, with all of his terrible track records, that's my view, not yours, perhaps, but that's in my words, with this terrible track record and with his horrible invasion that he did and what he does to his neighbors, he actually didn't. Infiltrate the election besides hacking John Podesta's emails.
And you're saying it hurt U.S. relations throughout your four years. They don't even know about John Podesta's emails. They had a couple of hackers who spent, in some cases, $50, $49.95, $101, and $103. That's what they have.
That's what, and these were hackers. These were people probably in Russia. That took ads. They took ads for, like this was the, had nothing to do with, frankly, Russia, had nothing to do with me. No, they created a story.
I remember when I said, I saw it on one of their networks, they were saying, after Hillary lost, this was going to be just a quick one-day, two-day excuse for why she lost. And the fake news picked it up and went with it. They do the same thing with the Epstein crap. They do the same exact thing. It's the exact same thing.
Anything they can do to demean. What happens is they picked it up and I remember it, one of the people, I won't even mention who now 'cause it could be that he's got problems and I'm not going to get involved in that, but got up and said, Well, Russia was the reason we lost And I had that's the first time I say, Russia? I'm listening to this. I'm saying like a day after the election, shortly after the election. I said, What's that all about?
But I didn't think much about it. It wa you know, I figured it was an excuse, which it was. But what happened is the fake news picked it up and made it a two-year ordeal. And then it turns out with a Mueller report, think of this. 18 different people we had.
18 different people on that of Mueller. Everyone was an anti-Trumper. Every single one of them was a negative Trumper. And you know what? They ruled.
Gotcha. That I did absolutely nothing wrong.
So, in one way, I was very impressed by that, actually, if you want to know the truth. I had somebody of the eighteen, I had somebody in there who was an angel, because it's almost impossible for that. They could have ruled whatever they wanted to do. They could have made up a story like they do so often. And, you know, guys like Weissman and some of these real scum, they're real scum.
They were so involved in that. He wrote a book about how, and he was on the committee. I think he was one of the guys on the committee.
Well, he was right. They said he was the brain behind Robert Mueller, who had lost his fastball, sadly. I think he's doing some physical problems. Just real quick on that, Melania, the first lady, Melania Trump is suing Hunter Biden for a billion dollars because he said that Jeffrey Epstein introduced you to each other, and she's suing Hunter for a billion dollars. Is that the right thing to do?
Well, I said go forward. You know, I've done pretty well on these lawsuits lately, and I said go forward with it. Jeffrey Epstein had nothing to do with Melania and introducing. But they do that to demean. They make up stories.
I mean, I could tell you exactly how it was if it was another person, actually. I did meet through another person. But it wasn't Jeffrey Epstein. Uh, yeah, I told her, Let's go ahead and do it. I'd let her use my lawyers.
Right. She's very upset about it. Big story out today that China is about to overtake America in the electric car and really outstrip Tesla. They probably took a lot of the technology. Your thoughts about losing the electric car business to China, does that worry you?
I don't like losing any business to China. We're leading in AI. We're leading in so much. They know it. We're way ahead of them in terms of chips.
We have Jensen and all these guys that are phenomenal. We're way ahead of them.
Now that Blackwell is coming out, it's It's so advanced that they won't catch it for years. No, we're leading them. The electric car is different. See, I don't, you know, do I care? Yeah, I don't like it.
But I I am a believer that somebody should buy You should you if you want to buy a gasoline-powered car, you know, we have more. We have more oil and gas than any other country. And I say if you want to buy Something where we have under the ground, you know, the batteries. Uh China has that, but we have oil and gas. And a lot of people want.
Look, it seems to be so far like a 7 or 10 percent market. China's gone all out. If they catch us, they're not coming into here. You know, I have tariffs, so they can't come in here. They can't come in with that brand new car.
I want to go back to immigration if I can. Mr. President, I don't want them destroying our automobile business.
Somebody else would let them in, and in about six months, we wouldn't have an automobile business in this country. I know it's going to cost like $21,000, and Europe's trying to keep them out, too. Mr. President, as you know, you've sealed the border in a way that I don't think anyone thought was possible. But because of that, you have an interesting situation.
You have people here for generations that, of course, they're not going to get citizenship, but they've been working on farms. A lot of farmers voted for you. They work in hospitality. A lot of hospitality workers voted for you. They work in meat packing areas.
Do you have a plan? And I know some Republicans are going to get upset by this, but do you have a plan to give them long-term work visas, not citizenship, to not hurt the people, not hurt our economy?
So as you know, I won the election with the farmers by like 88%. I won the election with the people that want strong borders by probably one hundred percent, I would imagine, right? I mean, how could you vote for somebody that wants open borders that never called a border patrol, that never went to the site? You know the borders are never even went to the border.
So I must think I don't know what it is, but let's assume it's like 130%.
So I won the border, I won everything. And to be honest, I love all those people. They have a little bit different thing in life. The farmers want to have. People that can work very hard in the fields, and the other people don't want to have anybody from outside of our country.
And I am working in a plan that I think is going to make everybody very happy. We have to take care of our farmers. We love our farmers, but we also have to take care of people that want total security and safety in our country. We're going to take care of both. Do you think within three months you'll have an answer to the hospitality workers, meatpackers, and farmers?
Because I think they make up so within three months. Yep, I think people are going to be happy. All right, I want to make. Look, they're all great. They love our country.
That group of people, the Democrats don't love our country. I think they hate our country. They're crazy. They've gone crazy. I just got to ask you about Jimmy Lai.
He's a self-made billionaire, Hong Kong friend of the West. And he was taken when Hong Kong was taken by the Chinese government. He's been jailed. He's closing arguments today. His son joined me.
And I did not know you knew Sebastian. Sebastian like here's what young Lee. Here's what he said. Cut three. Does President Trump know him?
We've been incredibly grateful that the President mentioned that 100% he will free my father. He mentioned it in a radio show with Hugh Hewitt. And it's given our family a lot of hope because at this point it it is about freeing him, but it's about saving his life. I don't know how much longer he has.
So your thoughts, because you're going to be meeting President Xi, and he could do that just by one finger. I didn't say 100%, I'd save him. I said 100%, I'm going to be bringing it up. And I've already brought it up. And I'm going to do everything I can to save him.
I'm going to do everything. You know, he's a respected guy. He's a good guy. I mean, you could also understand President Xi would not be exactly thrilled by doing it. It was, you know, it was a very nasty period of time in the history of China.
I mean, it was a very nasty period of time. With all of that being said, his name has already entered the circle of things that we're talking about. And we'll see what we can do. I really like the son a lot. I love that he's fighting so hard for his father.
And his father is, you know, not a young guy. He's You know, how much longer is he going to live? And I hear he's doing okay health-wise, not great. And we're going to do everything we can. Chuck Todd came out and said, You're dominating like no president since FDR.
And that includes education. Because in education, Brown, Columbia, George Washington University, UCLA, all of these universities are straightening up and paying a price. Why did the cult changing the culture matter to you, or does it, now that you're back?
Well, it matters a lot. The culture of a country matters so much. That's the sad thing about Ukraine. If you look at what's happened to those cities, they've been decimated. Those magnificent spires have all been almost all of them have been knocked to the ground.
They're in smithereens. And you know, it's so sad. No, culture matters so much. One thing on education that we're doing that you didn't mention, and it's true, these woke, crazy colleges are paying a very big price. And you haven't heard anything yet when you hear some of these settlements that we're doing.
But they're paying a big price. But what we're really doing with education, which I think is almost as important, maybe more important, is we're sending it back to the States. And the states are accepting it really gracefully and beautifully. And they want it. They desperately want it.
We have forty states where education will be as good as any place in the world. We have ten where it won't be so good because it's like you know, like a guy like Gavin Newsome. He's not going to run good education, but because he doesn't know how he's you know, he's just got a mouth. But uh a place like uh Los Angeles is going to be tough. But all of the you go to Iowa, you go to Indiana, you go to all these places, Nebraska.
Every one of these places they're gonna have Florida's gonna be phenomenal. We're sending education back. to their to the states. And we're getting it out of Washington DC and the bureaucrats where you know, you have people that are involved with like Florida from Washington they've never even been there and they're running education in Florida. We're sending it back so that Ron can run it, so that all the governors can run it, and they're going to do a great job.
Now ten states are not going to do as well, but they're the same like a guy like Pritzker won't do a good job with education. He probably doesn't even want it back. But Prisco won't do a good job, Newsom won't do a good job. You know, the various the same places that run badly will do a bad job. But ninety percent of the country is going to do a phenomenal job.
We're sending education back to the states where the parents are involved, they love their children, where their teachers are involved, they love the children, and it's not going to be run by the bureaucrats in Washington DC that are destroying. I mean, we have the worst education almost in the world for a top forty country. You know, we're like thirty-eight, thirty-nine, and forty out of forty in education.
So obviously, we're doing something wrong. That won't happen for long. When education goes back to these well-run states, it'll run as well as the various places like Denmark, Austria. You know, you have some countries that have like great education. Interestingly, China does very well with education, so you can't blame it on size, but they do very well with education.
And lastly, on behalf of Massapequa, you and Linda McMahon helping keep the Chiefs' name.
So that means a lot. Brian, I love Massaque. I have a lot of friends in Massapequa, including you, but I love Massapequa. I've heard that name for years, okay? And they have a you know, they have a championship team.
They always have a great team. I know they have young people that played on that team and great people. They played a we got to get the name back to the Chiefs. And you know what? They're demeaning the Indians by taking it's actually the opposite of what they think.
They're demeaning. That's a place. And that town is sort of based around that whole football thing that they have going there.
So we're working hard. You know, it's a state problem, not a federal problem.
So we have to interject, and we've done that into the state. But the state is fighting us very hard. But I think we'll be successful with it. You're always successful. Mr.
President, thanks so much. Best of luck in Alaska. And I look forward to seeing you walking on the military base and greeting Vladimir Putin. And we'll do the best we can, and I think we'll have a good result in the end. All right, go get him.
Thanks so much, Mr. President. Thank you very much, Brian. Appreciate it. Very good.
Thank you.
So that's the President of the United States being candid at those moments of the day. But I never, never do not appreciate when he comes on. I don't take it for granted. I hope you don't either. He always comes to play.
He doesn't come and be tight-lipped or give us deceptive answers. He answers honestly. And that's why so many of you write and say, I love when he comes on your show. Count me into. I don't take it for granted.
And until the next time. Uh and of course every time he comes on It makes a ton of news because the president's always making news. Brian Kilmicho. This is Ainsley Earhart. Thank you for joining me for the 52-episode podcast series, The Life of Jesus.
