TRUMP ANNOUNCEMENT LIVE — President Trump Makes SHOCKING Declaration After Cabinet Meeting — US News

[0:00] A very good friend of Dan Scavino, and he took it very hard. [0:06] Dan took it very hard. He liked the father. [0:08] Friends. They grew up together. [0:11] And it's a young lady whose life would be saved if we did what we did, [0:21] as an example, in Washington, D.C., which is now a safe city. [0:26] All the time, people come up to me in the building. [0:28] People that work here, they say, thank you so much. [0:30] I know immediately what they're talking about. [0:31] They're able to walk to work. They walk to work. [0:34] You all walk to work. [0:35] Some of you were mugged. [0:36] I know you told me stories. Some of you were mugged. [0:39] One person in particular was viciously mugged. [0:42] In the group right here, it's not happening anymore. [0:45] Social Security. [0:46] If the Democrats ever got in, you wouldn't have said Social Security would be bankrupt. [0:50] People wouldn't be getting anything. [0:53] Last week, they took down two of the largest Medicaid fraud cases in Minnesota history, [0:58] as well as the largest autism fraud case ever charged by the federal government. [1:02] You saw that with millions of dollars just being stolen. [1:05] Everybody had autism. [1:07] Everybody had autism. [1:08] They said. [1:11] It was incredible, actually. [1:14] And I really, I mean, I've just seen some, I see what they're doing. [1:18] You haven't seen anything yet. [1:21] So congratulations, J.D. [1:22] Be vicious like they are. [1:25] They're violent people. [1:26] They're violent, vicious scum. [1:29] Before asking Vice President Vance to speak about these efforts, I want to express our tremendous [1:34] gratitude to our outgoing Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, who's a terrific [1:39] person, actually. [1:41] He's come up with some findings that were pretty good. [1:51] And Tulsi's worked tirelessly to restore trust and focus on the intelligence and with the [1:58] intelligence community. [1:59] They all respected her. [2:01] They listened to her. [2:02] She gave us leads that were pretty much, people thought they were dead and they weren't [2:07] dead. [2:07] They were right there. [2:08] And she was able to expose a lot of things that we used at the FBI with Cash and with Todd [2:13] and with J.D. and everybody else. [2:15] It was amazing. [2:17] She dramatically reformed the Office of Director of National Intelligence and cutting the staff [2:22] by 40 percent. [2:23] And she prevented countless terrorists and cartel members from entering the United States. [2:28] She exposed mountains of evidence related to the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, one of the [2:33] probably the greatest hoax in the history of our country. [2:35] Although, when you look at the fraud coming out, it's, there's a lot of them. [2:39] I mean, honestly, there's a lot of them. [2:41] But the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, a great hoax, a very dangerous hoax, too. [2:46] And revoked security clearances of officials involved. [2:49] And she declassified numerous historic documents of special public interest, including related [2:55] to the JFK and RFK assassinations, which everybody wanted to see. [3:00] And we're now releasing a lot of things having to do with space. [3:04] You know, it's, people are very interested in that. [3:07] It actually became the number one topic. [3:11] We're releasing a lot of information having to do with extra-terrestrial things. [3:18] And people are totally fascinated by it. [3:21] It's amazing. [3:22] I wasn't sure they would enjoy it. [3:26] It's literally trending number one. [3:28] Can you believe it? [3:28] So, a lot of people out there are like it. [3:31] But we're releasing all of that information. [3:33] And, Tulsi, we're praying for you and for your husband. [3:36] Her husband's not feeling great, but he's going to feel great soon. [3:39] You're going to make him, you're going to get him better. [3:41] And he's a wonderful guy. [3:43] So, just say hello. [3:44] And thank you for the great work you've done. [3:45] We appreciate it. [3:46] Thank you very much. [3:47] And now I'd like to ask J.D. to say a few words about the war on fraud, followed by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, who's doing fantastically, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, another one. [3:59] I mean, we have great people. [4:01] And the Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Central Casting. [4:05] He loves war. [4:06] I don't like that one. [4:09] He's a good man, that one. [4:10] And Scott Besant, you talk about a guy doing a job. [4:16] It's been fantastic. [4:17] Thank you, Scott. [4:18] Really fantastic. [4:19] And a lot of the success that we're having with other countries is what you've been able to do and find. [4:25] And SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler. [4:28] And all of the people here have been great. [4:29] We're going to just do those for you. [4:31] And maybe if you have some questions, we'll go to others. [4:34] But everybody around here has got a lot to say. [4:36] But we did that once and it lasted for like four or five hours. [4:40] It was a little much. [4:42] We want to be open. [4:43] So, now if I do it this way, they'll say, he didn't let anybody talk. [4:47] But let's start with J.D., and you can talk about a really, really important thing, bringing our country back to honesty. [4:56] A tremendous amount of money is involved. [4:59] Go ahead. [4:59] Thank you. [4:59] Yes, sir. [5:00] Well, first of all, thank you for your leadership, sir, and for making it possible. [5:04] I often find in the Fraud Task Force that there sometimes are barriers that we need to break down, [5:08] the agencies that need to coordinate, and I'll come to the president and say, [5:11] Mr. President, I need your permission to do, and I'll say, for what? [5:14] For the Fraud Task Force. [5:15] And he'll cut me off and say, yes, go do it. [5:17] So, the fact that we have dedicated presidential leadership is really what's made this possible [5:21] because it does require, we've got great people around the table, [5:24] but sometimes these agencies don't know how to work together at the lower level, [5:28] and that's one of the things we've had to turn on and force with the Fraud Task Force. [5:31] So, I want to shout out just a few all-stars here. [5:34] Linda at the Department of Education has been amazing at finding student loan fraud. [5:38] You've got people who are either illegal aliens or aren't even actually real human beings [5:42] who are getting hundreds of millions of dollars from the Department of Education for student loans. [5:47] We have cut that off. [5:49] We found a lot. [5:49] We're going to find a lot more. [5:51] Scott at HUD has been amazing because a lot of the fraud that we see is housing.
