State regime media which calls itself Fox News is in full panic mode on air as Donald Trump has been reduced yet again to begging the Iranian people, please rise up. When are the Iranian people going to rise up? That's actually a post that Donald Trump made last night. He said, I'm not trying to force Iran to the bargaining table, but when are the Iranian people going to rise up and fight? DJT. Now, state regime media sees the writing on the wall that the Trump regime is about to get a midterm smackdown. We're seeing some of the biggest leads that a party has ever had. We're talking about the Democratic Party, uh, heading into the midterms on a generic ballot. Donald Trump at an all-time historic low for any president in modern presidential history heading into midterms. If you look at Donald Trump's approval in his second term. It's far worse than Biden, far worse than Donald Trump during his first term right now. Um, and so as Donald Trump hits new lows, state regime media is scrambling. So I wanna show you what they did, what their tactics are, what their propaganda moves are. And I'll tell you, it ain't working.
So they bring in MAGA Republican Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne, and she's like, I think it's important that we note that everything's Biden and Harris's fault. But when we're actually looking at the data right now, like what the Dallas Fed just showed, she goes, it actually shows an incredible increase in housing and people are doing amazing right now and people are buying houses at a record pace and young people are doing great. Everything's amazing right now. I'm not sure what country you're living in or what world you're living in, MAGA Republicans, but it ain't good here.
Okay?
Things are far worse. Far, far worse than when Donald Trump took over, but you can go ahead and lie. And one of the things she says too is, well, now that we've deported all of these immigrants too, we're seeing a lot of people moving into their houses. That's actually— the data reflects the exact opposite. In areas that have been targeted by Trump regime immigration raids, we're seeing those types of jobs actually lay off more Americans as well because the entire businesses are getting crushed and shutting down. Okay, but well, let's, let's just see the propaganda technique so we can call it out. This is the MAGA Republican Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne.
Here, play this clip.
Oh, don't— shouldn't Republicans own the affordability issue?
You would assume so, especially since we saw, you know, prices just skyrocket and get completely out of control during Biden's 4 years in office. And we've had less than 2 years to try to bring them down, and we've been successful. At the same time, we've also been successful in getting, you know, jobs in the private sector, not in the public sector. And we've increased wages now that are higher in inflation. That was not by accident. Those were all by policy choices, part of the, you know, working families tax cut bill, but also part of what we promised when we, we got elected to begin with in November. And, you know, we cannot underestimate the amount of, uh, of benefit that we've gotten just from, from, from, you know, getting, uh, deportations at 3.5 million. Uh, you know, we saw the Dallas Fed just released a paper that talked about the incredible increase in housing 30%, uh, that was caused by illegal immigration, 20% in apartment, uh, increases in apartment costs. So by those deportations, you're also seeing housing going down.
Then they bring on Tom Homan, Tom Homan, and Tom Homan says, oh, so, uh, we're not going after the kids. We just go after their parents. We don't care if they're criminals or not. If you're here, we're gonna get rid of the parents. And then the parent, it's the parent's fault because for having babies, that's what we do here at the Trump regime.
This guy's such an idiot.
Here, play this clip.
Right. But if you're in the country illegally, you know you're in the country illegally, you entered the country illegally, which is a crime, and you choose to have a U.S. citizen child, that's on you. That's on you. It's not on this government. So when that parent gets ordered deported by a federal judge, our job's deport. So we give the parent an option. That's parenting 101. Do you want to take your child with you or leave them here with a vetted sponsor?
What else were they doing on state regime media? Well, of course they had to pivot because that wasn't working. So how are they gonna pivot? Uh, they're gonna talk about Congresswoman AOC dating and they're saying, girl, they go, girl, no conservative would wanna date you, girl. That's what they're pushing on state regime media, that conservative men would not want to date AOC, and that's one of their primetime slots. Like, as the American people are unable to afford their rent or buy homes or have jobs and everything's unaffordable, as gas prices and diesel prices are at record high, this is what they're talking about on state regime media.
Here, play this clip.
Uh, probably not.
Girl, no conservative would want to date you. You are not untapping a mystery here. I mean, First of all, I mean, she, she broke up, she froze her eggs. She's eventually gonna put them in and maybe some brave soul will stand up and be the father of those poor little children. But like, why would a conservative ever wanna marry her? Like, hey, we're pregnant.
Well, I think we'll get an abortion.
We didn't say marry.
Okay, be the father.
Date.
Well, I know, but at her age, she's gonna wanna eventually have a husband.
How old is she?
She's, what is she, 30?
I have no idea.
How old is she?
We're not really allowed to talk about a woman's age.
No, we don't talk about a woman's age.
I mean, we can talk about mine.
I'm 25, but I think she's in her 30s.
You look great for 25.
Then you had Sean Hannity, one of the top propagandists over at state regime media. He brings in Treasury Secretary Bessent, who every day I find it hard to believe that Bessent could look like a more weird guy or a stranger dude or just a bigger loser, like a real psycho. Like, this guy may be the biggest psycho in the the entire Trump regime. And that's saying something, like, crazy man. And so he goes on Hannity and he's like, well, let me tell you what I did to Prime Minister Carney. I gave him a little bit of a verbal beatdown. And as a result of me beating down Carney, he now is saying I need to stop throwing shade and then maybe we can negotiate. It's because I've laid down verbal beatdowns on Prime Minister Carney of Canada. What are you talking about?
You didn't—
that's not what Carney said. Verbal beatdowns. You realize that the United States looks so utterly empathetic to Canada and the rest of the world. But go on, Bessin.
Here, play this clip.
Well, you know, we've had a free rider problem with Canada for a long time. And Prime Minister Carney, after getting a little bit of a verbal beatdown from myself, Secretary Hegseth said, well, you know, you gotta stop throwing shade And to get the negotiations back on track. Well, he was the one who said we were at war. But I will tell you, Canada had a great military. They were right there at the forefront on the beaches of D-Day. And what the Canadian government has done to the Canadian Armed Forces, if you look at the ranks of NATO spending, they are near the very bottom. Like, they're cellar dwellers. Around with Spain in terms of their military spending to GDP. And why is that? Because they were free riding. And Sean, I will tell you who was not with the prime minister. The Canadian businesses are not with the prime minister. The Canadian military is not with the prime minister. And, you know, he thinks that he got to office on an anti-Trump, anti-American platform, and it's not going to work out over the long term. So I hope that he will come back to the table.
President had the best trade deal we'd offered anyone, and he rejected it for political motives. So, okay, well, I don't think that's going to end well for them if he keeps it up.
Donald Trump's not the right guy to pick the fight with. Then Bessent's like, and our economy here in the United States is so great. It's the envy of the world. Now, there are some malcontents who try to rabble-rouse. And they try to act like our economy's not doing great, but everybody knows everybody's thriving. Hey, Bessent, you may wanna step out of your pink Malibu mansion, your pink Barbie mansion that you live in Charleston, South Carolina, where you lived, and actually talk to people in this country because inflation is surging. The American people are absolutely suffering right now as a result of your loser policies and the Trump regime policies.
Here, play this clip.
Said, just as the rest of the world wants to be more like us, as we have this great economy, we are very— we are accelerating away from the rest of the world. There are some malcontents who do not want to work. They want to pull everyone down with them. And look, I think that this is— yeah, I think that this is a limited group. And that, as I said, they are under-earning, and the rest of America, you know, we're seeing working-class wages pick up faster than they have for the bottom 25% than the rest of the working group put together. So, you know, these people think that they're entitled to something.
You see, nothing's working on state regime media as they're scrambling right now. So, uh, Jesse Watters brings on Dennis Quaid and Jesse Watters is like, no one is happy because they say they don't like their healthcare and they want Medicare for All. Listen to what Dennis Quaid says here.
Play this clip.
Defeated communism, Dennis. Why is communism coming back?
Well, do you know what else Ronald Reagan did to stay in Hollywood for a minute? You know, Hollywood still hates Reagan for whatever reason. You know, that's just the way they are. But do you— Screen Actors Guild actors have the best health insurance in the world, bar none. And do you know who got them that health insurance? It was Ronald Reagan, who came out of retirement. He was president of the Screen Actors Guild up until '52. He came out of retirement 10 years later And got those actors the greatest healthcare they could possibly have. And I thank him for it.
Well, now no one is happy because they say they don't like their healthcare and they want Medicare for All. So, I mean, it always helps to have a job, Dennis.
Yeah, well, everybody's a socialist until they get a job, right?
That's right. All right, water wars.
Living off other people's money.
I mean, the way they so callously, like, laugh and reject the fact that the American people want healthcare and that healthcare should be a human right. They just laugh in all of our faces, these MAGAs. Like, honestly, like, knowing what you're going through, knowing what you do to take care of your family and your community, and watching these, you know, state regime media hosts and guests laugh in your face, it just It pisses me off. Back to Treasury Secretary Bessin. This is his like WWE threat to Iran. He's like, the Iranian regime is over and they know it. They're going to have to pay and they're going to have to pay by doing a deal with us.
Okay, Predator, here, play this clip.
And they are either going to have to come to the table and be ready to negotiate that they cannot have a nuclear weapon, that they have to give up their highly enriched uranium, that they have to stop with their terrorist proxies, that they have to stop terrorizing their neighbors, or this will continue. And I believe that between the kinetic action that our great military did for 6 weeks, the blockade, and the greatest effort at financial isolation in the history of the world— history of the world— we are going to grind them Into the—
Meanwhile, Iran's central headquarters spokesperson over at the IRGC says US forces carried out airstrikes on military and civilian sites. It says Iranian forces responded with missile and drone strikes on US bases in the region, claiming heavy damage and significant American casualties. The headquarters says the attacks will continue until the US regrets its actions, warning that any country cooperating with US forces will face dangerous consequences. So there's no sign of backing down there by state regime media. Over, uh, the Homeland Security Secretary, he goes on the Laura Ingraham Show and he's like, we don't care. This is, this is their pitch going into the midterms at Homeland Security and ICE. We don't care if you're a criminal or not, we're gonna go after you. Whoa, rewind, rewind. The whole thing that you said is that you're going to go after, and this is, I'm quoting them, you're going to go after the bad hombres, the bad hombres.
That's it.
If people are here working productively and they're paying their taxes, then you're not going to go after them, but you're going to go after the bad hombres, only the criminals. No, what ICE and Border Patrol have done is actually not go after criminals. You have pardoned the criminals. You've, you've found the narco drug traffickers and you've befriended them because they got money and they paid you. And you've went— an international narco drug trafficker. Ooh, you love those international narco drug traffickers.
That's for sure.
And instead you've been targeting and going after who? Hardworking immigrants, people who have, who have businesses and people who have supported their families and have paid taxes. And here he is just saying it here, play this clip.
MAGA Republicans, MAGA Republicans are walking lockstep with the White House on enforcing our nation's immigration policies. And I've said this multiple times, there is a legal way to get into the United States, and you can follow those immigration policies if you choose to. These individuals that were going out, I don't care if you have a criminal background, if you don't have a criminal background, you chose to break the law when you came across our border illegally.
Bingo.
It is our position and our job to hunt you down and send you back to where you came from. And we will do that regardless if it's in a blue state or a sanctuary city. We're going to come to your house or to your place of business or to where you're shopping, and we're going to arrest you and we're going to send you back home. Or hey, do yourself a favor, go to ice.gov or dhs.gov and push the little button there and you can self-deport, and we'll give you a $2,600 check and a plane ticket to go back home.
And you know, state regime media also wants to be very clear that they're upset that underage teenage girls aren't getting pregnant enough.
Here, play this clip.
Absolutely. We still have 3.6 million births a year. But the problem is teens and young adults from ages 15 to 19. The fertility rate is down 7% and it's down 70% over the last 2 decades, meaning we're telling people that are young not to have babies, to wait till they're in a more stable life situation, till they're more financially secure. Maybe they haven't found the right partner.
And, uh, then you said the most ridiculous thing. Then you have Small Business Administrator Kelly Loeffler on Fox and Friends hyping up the new Small Business Administration reality show. Nobody wants reality shows. We just want our reality to get better. We just want a better life. We don't want any of this.
Here, play this clip.
Later, you got something else pretty exciting coming down. Small Business Administrator saluting small business in a major contest with some high-profile judges.
Tell me about it.
The Million Dollar Pitch competition is really amplifying the importance of small businesses across America. You think about 36 million small businesses, 98% of our manufacturers are small businesses. And so we're really excited to highlight their contribution to Main Street. This is what the Trump administration—
And then you have Trump's Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy, talking about Sydney Sweeney's boobs.
Here, play this clip.
I'm going to come back and give you my take on Sydney Sweeney's breasts right after this break. All right, welcome back to, uh, From the Kitchen Table. Um, Rachel, uh, decided to bring up a question about, um, Sydney Sweeney's boobs. Yes. Um, and the end of wokeness. Listen, I, I, if we're honest, we go, men appreciate women, and men that appreciate women are not toxic. God made us a certain way to appreciate and, and, and want to mate with a woman, and women are made the same way to want to be with a man. And, um, I think Sydney Sweeney is just a reminder that men are still men. I'm sorry, we are. And women are still women, and that's okay.
