00:00And one last question, if I may, how was the meeting this morning between former President
00:04Donald Trump and House Republicans? It was a great meeting. I think the president did a really good
00:11job showing what another term under President Trump would be. And it would be, you know,
00:19smart energy policy that will make gas prices more affordable, food costs more affordable,
00:26inflation to come down so people can afford to live in this country, put a roof over their head,
00:31put food on their table, pay their electric bills. I think that was a main part of his focus was
00:37showing the contrast between the Biden disastrous economy that we have right now with the highest
00:43interest rates in decades, with gas prices that are double from when President Trump left,
00:49and how Americans are just getting crushed with inflation fueled by those anti-energy policies
00:56of President Biden. And where we were, right, with the lowest unemployment, wages were lifted,
01:03six million Americans lifted out of poverty because of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act. We saw
01:08our economy booming up until COVID sadly struck. But there's a stark contrast between where we were.
01:15We had peace through strength. Now we have appeasement of our adversaries, two wars that
01:21we are involved in, and we have a Russian military ship just off the coast of the United States,
01:27all because of appeasement of adversaries. We don't have domestic energy independence
01:35because President Biden undid the policies of President Trump. He shut down the Keystone
01:40Pipeline. And now we're begging Venezuela for dirtier oil and filling their coffers instead
01:46of creating American jobs and making American prosperous and independent here at home.
01:52The border is another stark contrast. We had a secure border. We did not have this mass
01:58immigration that you have today in cities like mine. In fact, we never had it under any other
02:02president except for Joe Biden. His 60 policy changes led to the mess that we're seeing right
02:08now where we have ISIS members inside the United States of America during a time of war where our
02:15adversaries are picking and bullying and terrorizing Israel, attacking Israel, our ally.
02:22That is so incredibly dangerous. I just hope we can get President Trump back in office before
02:28we have a terrorist attack because of the stupidity of the Biden administration.
02:32Their reckless policies are putting America at risk. And as somebody who represents New York
02:37City in a post 9-11 world, that is the thing that scares me the most. And yesterday, once again,
02:43we saw terrorists caught in our interior that came over Joe Biden's open border.
