SPEAKER 09 :
He’s the happy conservative warrior. From the Relief Factor studios, here’s Mike Geller.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’ve been thinking a lot about the unhinged reaction from the left over things like deporting violent gang members. Increasing government efficiency and cutting out waste and fraud and securing the border and lowering prices and inflation. But thinking about the unhinged reaction from many people in our country. And it kind of occurred to me last night. The actual reaction we’re witnessing is the behavior of children. And what do you do when children misbehave? I think we would get some clarity if we can focus our attention on how you react. I mean, I watched a clip. I don’t want to make you suffer through it. Five minutes of the ladies on The View all arguing amongst themselves about whether Democrats are fighting back hard enough. I don’t know what they expect people to do. And Whoopi Goldberg concluded it all by saying, we’ve got to take to the streets. And they’re taking to the streets all right. The problem with that mindset is when you tell people to take to the streets, a segment of that population is committing violence. They’re hurting people. They’re hurting people’s property. They’re hurting people’s livelihoods. What do you think Tim Walz does when he roots for Tesla to fail? One of the biggest blunders I’ve ever seen a politician make. Think about an American governor Joking and taunting and bragging about hoping Tesla fails. Especially when we found out that a portion of Minnesota’s own pension fund is invested in Tesla. So he wants his own retirees to get hurt. It’s not funny. I guess he was trying to be cute. That’s as clever as him trying to say he’s going to kick all of our butts. He’s going to beat us all up. That’s Tim Walz. one of the strangest men to ever run for national office. And they wonder why the Kamala Harris-Tim Walz ticket didn’t succeed. Incidentally, speaking of the Kamala ticket, it’s no secret that Donald Trump used to be beloved by Democrats. Remember when I came across a Comedy Central roast of Donald Trump? Have you ever seen the roast of Comedy Central? Tracy, can you find out what year that took place? I think Snoop Dogg was there and Chris Rock. There was a whole bunch of, you know, mainstream entertainers. And it was a roast on Comedy Central. One night late at night, I was channel surfing. And I came across it. And it was an old episode. You know how they do those roasts on Comedy Central with celebrities? Yes. And the roast of Donald Trump included one of the roasters saying to the roastee, Donald J. Trump, you should run for president someday. And the whole room erupted in roars of approval. The same people that now despise him used to be egging him on, wanting him to run for president. So I’ve been thinking about a hypothetical that came from a texter who wrote me today and said they loved Trump until he ran as a Republican for president. That got me to thinking, what if Trump had run as a Democrat and won? Do you know the same people that are condemning him today would be absolutely singing his praises? I think we’re making a mistake. I think we’re making a mistake. We’re acting like the lunatic, unhinged, crazy responses to things like public safety, border security, lowering inflation. deporting violent gang members. We’re acting like that’s rational, normal discourse. And it really isn’t. There are things to have rational, normal discourse over. We can go down some things. We can have a debate about whether it’s a good idea to abolish the Department of Education, like Trump is planning to do. That’s okay. Maybe you disagree with that. That’s okay. Let’s talk about it. Let’s have the discussion. It’s okay to talk about the dramatic way Doge is cutting thousands and thousands of jobs. It’s okay. I think it’s okay to have the debate about rogue judges trying to stop him and winding its way up to the Supreme Court. That’s okay. What’s not okay is destruction and damage and violence. And somebody’s going to get hurt. Somebody’s going to get killed. You know that in your heart. You know it’s coming. That’s not okay. And to Whoopi Goldberg or to Jasmine Crockett or to Tim Walz or to anybody else advocating, taking to the streets, taking Tesla down, hurting Tesla, you are inciting domestic terrorism. And I believe there’s going to be A reckoning for these people. They’re going to have to be held accountable. Just like the dummies who are vandalizing Tesla cars and they’re too stupid to remember that there are nine cameras on the exterior of that car and something called sentry mode and what you do to a Tesla is being recorded and it’s kept in the cloud. and then the police are going to review that, and they’re going to come arrest you. And under the Trump administration, you are going to be charged with domestic terrorism. This isn’t just some penny-anny, you know, damaging a car. You’re a domestic terrorist, period. And you’re going to likely spend a lot of time behind bars. So you ought to think about that when you consider vandalizing somebody else’s property. This is the behavior of children. These are childish, infantile responses. You know how there’s a mantra, there’s a narrative emerging from the Democrat Party that we can’t, this is not a time for normal discourse. I would agree with that. You can’t have normal discourse with people who praise Luigi Mangione. It’s impossible to have regular, normal conversations with somebody who carry long-live Hamas banners. You can’t have a normal conversation, an adult conversation, with people who don’t behave like adults. So I guess I’m going to turn it over to you here. This is going to be a good hour, too, because a little bit later we’re going to visit with Kurt Schlichter, who wrote a piece years ago that none of us can find, including Colonel Kurt, about the normals. But he can articulate it quite well. And we’re going to talk about this conflict, this showdown we’re having in America between us normals. and the bat-crap crazy people who don’t know what to do with Republican leadership. But I’m going to ask you, how do you handle or how do you respond to, how do you react to childish, Off the charts, unhinged rhetoric and actions. What do we do with the protesters and the opposition to the Trump administration, considering how crazed they’ve become? What’s the proper response? Do we just ignore them? Do we take them on? Do you confront them? Or do you just let them scream and yell and hold their breath until they turn blue? What do you think is the proper response? Our number is 800-655-MIKE. We’re back in the upstate of South Carolina, the studios of 98.9 WORD. It’s great to catch up with all our friends here and had a nice dinner last night over at Patterson at the Hotel Hartness. My home away from home. Every time I come to the Upstate, I love that hotel. And what a hotel that is. Travel and Leisure’s world best rates at the number one resort in South Carolina. The third best resort in the U.S. Number 24 in the world. It’s right here in the Upstate. You can stay there too. Hotelheartness.com. Hotelheartness.com. Let’s get your reaction to all of the craziness, all of the insanity. What’s the proper way to respond to these kooks? 800-655-MIGHT. I just got the daily report for our Food for the Poor campaign. Look, if the new kid on the block, Chris DeGaulle, beats us in the campaign, I’m in big trouble. I’m giving up. You can’t let that happen.

SPEAKER 09 :
Mike Gallagher.
SPEAKER 04 :
Here’s a text message from Wisconsin. These are not children. These are thugs. They are morally corrupt. Perhaps. But there are reasonable people on every side of every argument. In fact, I saw last night Congressman Ro Khanna. Now, he’s a Democrat from California. But I want you to hear what a Democrat – look, I say this all the time. We’ve got to be careful not to attack everybody who says, well, I’m not a Republican, I’m a Democrat. Well, that doesn’t mean you’re a loony. That doesn’t mean you’re a thug, violent, endorsing criminal. In fact, let me give you an example. Here was Congressman Ro Khanna, remember, Democrat from California of all places, with an entirely reasonable adult reaction to things that are happening in this country from his perspective as a Democrat.
SPEAKER 02 :
Has it crossed the line when people are sort of rooting for the failure of a company?
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, first, let me say, until yesterday, I think I was one of the only Democratic elected officials to unambiguously condemn the violence and destruction against Tesla. I don’t think you have to be tough on crime to do that. As you know, my grandfather is part of Gandhi’s satyagraha movement, independence movement. He said sabotage is a form of violence. I mean, this is not the best form of protest, and it’s not the tradition. The second point is I’m not going to root against Tesla. There are 20,000 people who work in my district who make a living. off this. They’re building electric vehicles that ultimately are good for the climate. I have huge, huge problems with what Elon Musk is doing. Have the protest and the conversation and criticism of Musk. Don’t take it out on a company where you have workers, where you have engineers, where you have scientists which are creating wealth for the country, which is helping the climate. And I think Democrats have to be able to offer common sense perspectives, focus on what the problem is with Musk. Don’t focus on the wealth of a company.
SPEAKER 04 :
I tease some of my colleagues, one in particular for being a kind of a Beltway talk show host, an establishment guy. He’s a friend of mine. You know who I’m talking about. And I know that Ro Khanna is one of his favorite guests. Well, that’s why. And we shouldn’t run from intelligent, sophisticated adult debate. Ro Khanna, a Democrat from California, is completely plausible in what he just said. And look, it’s a little bit of a double-edged sword. If Democrats started talking like him, they’d start winning elections again. I don’t know that they’re smart enough to figure it out. They’re all caught up in their own theatrics and their childish temper tantrums. If there were more Rojanas in the Democrat Party, they’d have a lot more success. Let’s see what you think. 800-655-MIKE. Here’s Ted in Venice, Florida. Ted, welcome back. What do you think is the right way to handle these protesters and respond to these people who are off the charts?
SPEAKER 08 :
Mike, I love you. I’m a Republican Trump supporter. I listen when I can almost every day.
SPEAKER 04 :
Aw, thank you, Ted. I appreciate that very much.
SPEAKER 08 :
You’re very kind. I mean that sincerely. Thank you. I just think the response from conservative networks and all of this has been way too much coverage of this. Yeah. This is a minority of people in the country that are acting like idiots. And back to Ro Khanna, for an example. Bill Maher, Ro Khanna, they all try to sound reasonable. But let’s not fool ourselves, conservatives. They’re going to vote liberal every time.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, of course they are. But, Ted, I have to ask you, didn’t what you just heard sound reasonable from Ro Khanna?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yes, it sounds reasonable, but these very same people, he will turn on a dime if he sees the chance to win an election. I know. And they are about grasping power. And we can never forget that. And when we highlight this foolishness they’re doing, and on Fox every day, what’s the Democrats going to do to rebuild their party? Why do we care?
SPEAKER 04 :
I know, I know. Let them figure it out. Why should we be part of helping them figure it out? I get that. On the other hand, when you highlight the insanity, we’re reminded, I think importantly, of what today’s 2025 Democrat Party looks like. I’ll ask Kurt Schlichter that question, because it’s a good question, Ted. It’s a good issue, and I appreciate, again, your kind words. That means a lot to me, too. Should we be giving these protests all this attention, or should we try to ignore it? The great Kurt Schlichter, townhall.com, next.
SPEAKER 10 :
And I want you to be my spouse So that we can live happily
SPEAKER 04 :
Ph.D. weight loss has changed my life, and I’ve got a little secret for you. You know Big Pharma and semaglutide and the shots in the belly.

SPEAKER 09 :
The Mike Gallagher Show.
SPEAKER 06 :
I met the mother of Jocelyn Nungary, Alexis Nungary, who President Trump honored at the State of the Union, named a National Wildlife Refuge after her daughter, trained a Aragua terrorist, took that 12-year-old angel, and they tortured her to death. They sexually assaulted her. They stripped her and they dumped her body in a river. That’s who President Trump has deported from this country.
SPEAKER 09 :
In the ReliefFactor.com studios, here’s Mike.
SPEAKER 04 :
And that’s, you know, Trendy Aragua is who the Democrats, many of them anyway, are defending. They support them. Oh, wait a minute. They’re not getting due process. It’s crazy. These reactions are so crazy. And I keep thinking about Kurt Schlichter, and it’s a constant narrative he has in his work. He’s a lawyer, author, political commentator. He’s the senior columnist at townhall.com. He’s also a Los Angeles trial lawyer. He talks about the normals. The normals. Ro Khanna just gave a normal reaction, right? You heard that on CNN. Here’s a text from California. These protesters have no loyalties. They are chronically unhappy. Ignore them like a bad child. They want the attention. In their minds, they think they’re swaying people to their ideology. And for weak-minded or uneducated people, it could work. What’s the right way to react to somebody who defends Hamas? What’s the right way to handle people who support seemingly Trendy Aragua. What’s the right way to react to people who think burning down a Tesla dealership is discourse? Let’s ask the one and only Colonel Kurt Schlichter, who joins us back on the Mike Gallagher Show. It’s been way too long, Kurt. How have you been?
SPEAKER 07 :
Hi, Mike. Well, you know, it’s very early here in California, so I want to apologize for looking like I just rolled out of bed. You got bedhead. You got bedhead. I do have bedhead. On the plus side, I do have hair.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, that’s a slam because you know about my bald spot.
SPEAKER 07 :
Thank you. You look very distinguished.
SPEAKER 04 :
Thank you.
SPEAKER 07 :
I may just at some point just give up the whole thing and just look like I did my work.
SPEAKER 04 :
Just go nuts. Hey, first of all, I want to pull the curtain back. Tracy reached out to you. I reached out to you. There was a column you wrote. years ago. And that’s why we’re having a hard time getting our hands on it. But it became sort of my primer. It became my Bible. It became my mantra. It’s about normals versus the bat-crap crazy world of the left-right these days. And you wrote this years ago. We couldn’t get our hands on the column. I’m not sure you have either. But you’ve repeated that theme in the past. I’m telling you what, Kurt, that message is more true now than it’s ever been. Can you comprehend the level of lunacy and insanity we’re getting from Democrats who aren’t happy with the way things are going?
SPEAKER 07 :
Look, it doesn’t make any sense to normal people. To us, it reads as crazy. To them, it is perfectly logical, because remember, what they’re doing is attempting to create a bizarre Marxist utopia where they are in charge, so nothing matters. There’s no objective facts. There’s no guardrails. There’s no norms. They’re for whatever they’re for at any given moment, because they need to be for it. So if they decide, well, it makes a lot of sense to invest in naked men coming in your daughter’s locker room, they will do that without a second’s hesitation. And they’re apparently doing that without a second hesitation. And to us, it looks crazy because it doesn’t seem to work for us. But it binds their party together. It binds their base together. So in a way, it does make sense to them. It’s not completely crazy in their minds. It makes sense. And you know what? Tomorrow, they’ll be as against homosexuals and transsexuals and all the other sexuals as Che was. He shot them. He literally murdered them. And they’re all wearing Che t-shirts. So the fact that it looks insane to us is kind of beyond the point. It doesn’t really make any difference to them. They just don’t care.
SPEAKER 04 :
Do you think there’s any soul-searching going on within – and I played this clip earlier, the four minutes of the harpies on The View, all arguing about whether or not we should be arguing with each other as Democrats right now. It was the craziest thing. And the conclusion came from the, I guess, the sage – Solomon of the panel, Whoopi, and Whoopi said, essentially, we’ve got to take to the streets. We’ve got to be loud. We’ve got to make noise. It’s the only way. And, of course, people hear that and they say, all right, now I’m going to carve a swastika into the side of a Tesla because Whoopi told us to go out and let our voices be heard. Now, I don’t want to make the same mistake that a lot of people made about Trump on January 6th. To be fair, she didn’t say go commit acts of violence. But let’s face it, there are a lot of people who are being incited by the Jasmine Crockett’s and the Tim Waltz’s and the Whoopi Goldberg’s of the world. Do you think there’s any soul searching going on over on their side of the aisle saying maybe we’re going too far?
SPEAKER 07 :
Well, I’m just trying to get my head around the concept of being the smartest person on the view. That was sarcastic. It’s like… That’s like being the best STD. I don’t want any part of it. Look. You and I are, well, not to put too fine a point on it, old, and we remember the 80s, and we remember Ronald Reagan took over for Jimmy Carter, and that was a real crisis for the Democrats. And for 12 years, they were in the wilderness because normal Americans just didn’t trust the Democrats. And then a guy named Bill Clinton came along, and he viewed things differently. He was like, well, I think criminals belong in jail, and I think people should work instead of getting welfare. And you know what? The normal people trusted liberal Democrats again after that.
SPEAKER 04 :
Kurt, I played this clip from Ro Khanna last night. He sounded like a Republican, frankly. He said it’s not. He goes, look, Tesla has thousands of American employees. Tesla is an American company. It’s a good company. They’re doing good things. Damaging and vandalizing and hurting Tesla isn’t the answer. We’ve got to come up with better solutions. And I thought if they had more Ro Khannas and less Jasmine Crockett’s, they’d win elections again.
SPEAKER 07 :
Well, look, the Democrats are eventually going to be a viable party again because they have to be at some point. But right now they don’t have the rope on us because the desire to win has not exceeded the desire to act out like the spoiled children all Marxists are. When they start saying, we got to take to the streets, we got to be louder, we got to meaner, that’s a temper tantrum. That’s not a strategy. That’s not even a tactic.
SPEAKER 04 :
It’s just – It’s just – I’m going to hold my breath until I turn blue. I’m just going to – I’m going to stomp my feet. I’m going to stamp my feet, and I’m going to yell – I’m going to bay at the moon. That’s not – like, you’re right. It’s not any kind of a strategy whatsoever. So if you’re a talk show host, if you’re doing this day after day, and you’re a senior columnist at Town Hall – You do a lot of shows, you guest host a lot, and you certainly know this space. But if day to day you had to navigate through these stories of Teslas being vandalized and these crazy protests, would you ignore it or would you showcase it to spotlight how crazy and unhinged a lot of people on the left have become? What do you think the right response is, Kurt?
SPEAKER 07 :
Look, the right response is the planned response of the Trump administration, which is to highlight how crazy they are. You know, we keep hearing how Donald Trump, you know, Donald Trump, he’s dumb. He’s bad. He’s an evil orange man. This guy has maneuvered you idiots into a kill zone. He is consistently outmaneuvering you so that you are taking 80, you are taking the 20 part of the 80-20 issue. OK, and he’s doing it again and again and again. And each time you look terrible. Look, we saw some of the media crowing yesterday. Donald Trump’s approval ratings down to forty nine percent.
SPEAKER 04 :
Man, four years ago, five years ago, Trump was about 20, wasn’t he? Twenty five percent. That’s right. I mean… And there’s a brand new poll. And by the way, there’s a new poll just came out within the hour. Approval for congressional Republicans is at an all-time high right now. I mean… What is it? 47 or 49? But look, better than 20. Better than 20.
SPEAKER 07 :
See, this is the power of working together. And look, I didn’t have a lot of faith in Mike Johnson. I don’t have a lot of faith in any politician. But the guy has twice put together… majorities that no one thought he could get and got this stuff passed. Right. And working with Trump, we’re just scoring win after win. And I love that even when we get frustrated by some of the lawfare, and I’ve talked extensively about the lawfare, particularly online at Twitter, follow me at Kurt Schlick. There’s the obligatory plug. Shameless plug. Exactly. Well, look, I’m a trial lawyer from Los Angeles. I had my shame gene surgically removed in law school 30 years ago. It is – even when we’re slowed in the courts – We’re playing a long game there. We’re going to not only win 90% of these cases, we’re going to get precedent that’s going to prevent this stuff from happening in the future. And it’s happening early.
SPEAKER 04 :
I have the same attitude about these court challenges. Let it play out. I don’t get hysterical about it. There’s going to be federal judges, Obama appointees, Democrat, you know, Trump-hating judges.
SPEAKER 08 :
Bush appointees.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yep, and some Bush appointees. No kidding. John Roberts, we’re talking to you. Look, there’s going to be pushback from some of these judges. Okay, they’re going to slow it down. We’re two months into this thing. We’ve got four years to go. We’re talking, of course, with Kurt Schlichter, senior columnist at Town Hall. And, by the way, kudos to Katie Pavlich. Boy, did she get the hero’s welcome at the White House press briefing yesterday. Oh, she’s just great. Wasn’t that great? Well, you know.
SPEAKER 07 :
go ahead how old are we now when i started this with andrew breitbart back in 09 i think she was like 16 and now she’s like this beautiful woman she’s uh married i think she’s got a kid she’s she’s i mean she’s of course town hall she’s just delightful it is so great to see so many of these young conservatives moving up and taking their place uh like jd vance being the uh leader of them. I’m just so proud of these folks.
SPEAKER 04 :
And our country’s in such good hands. We’re in great hands. Big announcement this week in our company, Charlie Kirk is going to fill the big shoes of Dennis Prager for a couple of hours. Two of the three hours are going to be, the show is going to be handed over to Charlie Kirk. And Dennis is scheduled to come back June the 2nd, I think is the date. What? For the third hour. Oh, that’s so great. Isn’t that great? And Charlie Kirk, my goodness, he’s a force of nature, and he’s everywhere. Look, we are in good hands. We’ve got a lot of bunch of people a little bit younger than you and me. In fact, I think some of these guys, I’ve got socks older than them, and they’re going to carry the torch. Final question for you, Colonel Kirk. I can’t take credit for this. It came from a texter from Washington State who got me thinking. They said… The Democrats loved Trump until he ran for president as a Republican. I started thinking about that. Kurt, what do you think they’d be saying about Donald Trump today if he ran and won as a Democrat?
SPEAKER 07 :
Well, they’d be loving him. Because, again, there’s no objective reality for these guys. They’d be loving him. And it’s not like they’re part…
SPEAKER 04 :
The space splashdown, oh my gosh, they’d be having fireworks displays all over America if President Trump, the Democrat, rescued the astronauts. I’m surprised we haven’t had a federal judge ban dolphins. I tweeted something about Babylon Bee. They said, now leftists are carving swastikas on the side of dolphins because of the dolphin pod outside. Tell me you saw Mark Kelly’s astronaut brother on TV, on Fox of all places, suggesting that the astronauts were never stranded and it would have been safer to keep them up there. Did you see that guy?
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, I did see that. And it was like, you know, when he’s talking about astronaut stuff, that’s just fine.
SPEAKER 04 :
Kind of stay in your lane, Astro Boy. Uh-huh. Yeah, let’s talk about the propulsion. Why don’t you stay out of politics? Well, you always propel us to great thinking, and Kurt Schlichter, keep fighting the good fight. Check out his books. He’s got so many great books. And incidentally, I got through the whole interview without even acknowledging that the room you’re in looks like it’s under rocket fire with the lights blinking and one light went out.
SPEAKER 07 :
Oh, I know, right? My wife just comes in. I just rebuilt the whole day on the stairs because it got flooded. And then my light’s blinking. I’m like, where’s my general contractor? And it’s like, this is the best. But, Mike, I am so happy to be back on with you because it’s been so long.
SPEAKER 04 :
It’s been too long. Let’s get you back. And let’s get you back more often.
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, no, let’s get you back more often. You’re like, hey. Get me Schlichter. Get Schlichter more often because I loved it with it. It’s just so much fun.

We’re in a celebratory mood today. Well over $100,000. 101 now in our Food for the Poor campaign. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I shared the lost or the missed connection baggage story. Chicagoland just sent a text message on the MyPillow text line. Great. This is going to turn you into a baggage hypochondriac. Now, I’ll be one of those obnoxious people that gets on the plane and tries to lug a carry-on the size of a washing machine. I never understand how there’s people that get on the plane and they can’t get the bag into the overhead. It’s like, well, the thing is too big. They used to have little bins at the gate where you had to put the bag in. Now they don’t have those anymore. They got rid of those. Probably was causing too many problems. No, I’ll play by the rules. I’m not going to overstuff the bag. I’m not going to bring too many bags on the plane. Chicago, you don’t have to worry. I’m a hypochondriac, but not a baggage hypochondriac. Wisconsin, terrorism is evil. That audience at the comedy show that you played, sheer evil. And then finally, a text message that put a big smile on my face from Atlanta. I just scared the crap out of the lady stopped next to me in traffic, blowing my horn, celebrating $100,000. Do you know what that means to me to have somebody from Atlanta, Georgia, be as excited about our successful campaign as we are here at Team Gallagher? Thank you, Atlanta. You made my day. And look, it’s unusual to take a few times a year and try to make the world a little better. Some people don’t like it. Not many, but some people, oh, I get tired of that. You’re raising money. Look, it’s not really a secret. that any show on radio or TV, there’s a lot of marketing involved. We sell a lot of things. And if you really are agitated, like the text from Los Angeles was, or no, it was Washington, D.C., if you’re really annoyed that part of our marketing is inviting you to help people who are suffering, You ought to take a look in the mirror and see what’s wrong with you, because there is. There’s something a little bit wrong with you. You don’t mind when we do ads for everything else, and I’m happy to do. I love marketing. I love the business side of what we do. And all we do is devote a portion of our marketing to solicit donations on behalf of people who are starving, children who are the kids of American prisoners. People who don’t have a roof over their heads. People who don’t have any clothes. People that are sleeping in the side of a hill. And I always feel so – I never get – look, I don’t – I get a lot of criticism. I’m used to it. It’s part of the – it goes with the territory. But I’m always sad for people who complain about our philanthropic donor campaigns. I wonder if you hear yourself. Somebody just, the text from Washington, we give thousands of dollars to charity, tens of thousands. We don’t need to hear Mike soliciting for food for the poor. Are you kidding? Really? You don’t get aggravated when we promote MyPillow or ReliefFactor or Chapter or any of the other great partners we have? You’re really mad? Really? That we devote a portion of our marketing time to literally saving lives? You know, when a child is starving and they get a meal a week, I mean a meal a day rather, for a year thanks to a $100 donation, that’s actually saving lives. And some grumpy fuss budget in Washington, D.C. writes a text, we don’t want to hear Mike doing that. Well, thankfully most people don’t mind. And I’m grateful that most people appreciate the spirit in which we do this. Let’s celebrate together, shall we? Let’s celebrate with the summer cruise. The Patriots Alaska cruise is coming up in August, and people are booking this trip left and right. And the office is open now, so we always give the website for the Patriots Alaska cruise with yours truly, along with Larry Elder, Joe Piscopo, Jennifer Horn, Joey Hudson. We’re all going to be on the beautiful Euro Dam, a great cruise ship, part of the Holland America family. It’s August 16th through the 24th, or 16th through the 23rd, rather, one week, sailing the last frontier, the beautiful glaciers and the fjords and the wilderness and the wildlife. We’ll see bald eagles. We’ll see whales. You always see, they have a whale watching excursion, and you’re pretty much guaranteed to see whales. I remember when I saw the first whale, they do the big breach, they come out of the water. It is like, it takes your breath away. So the website is TravelWithSalem.com. There’s still time for you to sign up. I think it’s $300 to reserve your stateroom so you don’t lose it. Because when they’re gone, they’re gone. Space is limited. We’ll be doing events on the ship. We’ll be sightseeing together. Hundreds of like-minded patriots together for the Patriots Alaska Cruise, August 16th through the 23rd. I hope you can join us. TravelWithSalem.com.

Let’s try Cindy in Pittsburgh. Hey, Cindy, how are you?
SPEAKER 03 :
Hi. I was calling because I want to know if these people that are spray painting and setting these cars on fire, are they going to be put in jail and prosecuted? Because if I did that to Joe Biden’s house or I went up to George Soros’ and pulled off some stunt, wouldn’t I be put in jail?
SPEAKER 04 :
Every last one of them. In fact, Christian, let’s play Pam Bondi. Let’s play the clip of Pam Bondi. Cut number six. Here’s what Pam Bondi said about these Tesla attacks.
SPEAKER 02 :
These attacks are taking place throughout our country. We have charged multiple people. Get ready. More coming. One we charged in Oregon is facing five to 20 years in prison. We filed in Colorado. We filed in South Carolina. There are more coming. Funding is one thing we are looking at, among many others. I was personally in a meeting about it this morning. We are coming after you. We believe these are organizers and these are not individuals out there throughout the country doing this on their own. They’re targeting Tesla owners. They’re targeting Tesla dealerships. They’re targeting Elon Musk, who is out there trying to save our country, and it will not be tolerated. We are coming after you. We will find you. And if you are an organized group who is funding this, we’re going to find you, too.
SPEAKER 04 :
There you go, Cindy. Ask and ye shall receive. Got a text from Texas. Just donated $25 to your campaign so I can be part of this celebration. Well, you are. You’re a big part. Thank you. That’ll do it for a Thursday. Let’s do it again tomorrow, okay? Hope you have a great day. Keep it right here all day long for news, opinion, passion. Have a terrific Thursday. Be safe. Keep fighting the good fight. I’m Mike Gallagher. God bless America.
