00:10President Trump signed an executive order to end catch and release

00:13and finish construction of his effective border wall.

00:21And this president expects that every nation on this planet

00:25will cooperate with the repatriation of their citizens.

00:29When President Trump swiftly directed his team to issue harsh

00:33and effective sanctions and tariffs on the Colombian government,

00:36upon hearing they were denied a U.S. military aircraft full of their own citizens

00:41who were deported by this administration.

01:27Without a shred of warning, the Trump administration announced a halt

01:32to virtually all federal funds across the country.

01:37In an instant, Donald Trump has shut off billions, perhaps trillions of dollars

01:44that directly support states, cities, towns, schools, hospitals, small businesses,

01:56It's a dagger at the heart of the average American family in red states, in blue states,

02:01in cities, in suburbs, in rural areas.

02:06It is just outrageous.

02:07President Trump ordered the heads of all executive departments and agencies

02:11to help deliver emergency price relief to the American people.

02:32Funds for things like disaster assistance, local law enforcement,

02:36rural hospitals, aid to the elderly, food for people in need,

02:56whose passes were wrongly revoked by the previous administration.

03:08deployed during the campaign, the Trump White House will speak to
