I mean, he shouldn't be completely glum. He's got a shot of being number one in the demo in Hawaii. Do you see what this is?

The Megyn Kelly Show

2073.604

Oh, thank God. And that's exactly what we were talking about is he's had folks around him like Stephen Miller, who had four years to get ready for this moment, who saw the kind of nonsense that the bureaucracy does to keep Americans unsafe. And so now they're hitting the ground running ready for stuff like this.

Also, it's important to note this is a very American tradition, putting in checks and balances to ensure that America is a safe country of laws. It's a wonderful day for all Americans.

That's the thing is, so the thing is, the Bill of Rights applies to citizens, right? I think you learned that, what, third grade? Is that third grade?

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

2337.335

And this is very necessary because there's a lot of already very troubling things that are happening. The other day it was reported that the Denver public school system, taxpayer funded, is sending out emails advising illegal aliens and their families how to avoid ICE. That's taxpayer funding that's going towards breaking the law.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

2354.771

So things like this are incredibly necessary when you see across this country that institutions that we ourselves are paying for as taxpayers are trying to help individuals break the law, which can lead to things like innocent people getting murdered. So it's wonderful seeing how focused the Trump administration is on making sure that is dealt with.

2587.054

No, it turns out maybe they're not sending their best. And it's right there. Everyone understood. We had we've been saying for a while when when there was a Democrat primary happening in 2020 and they asked during a debate, will you provide, you know, free health care housing for illegal immigrants? Raise your hand if you did, if you do. And every single one of those people did.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

2608.572

The message was heard loud and clear around the world. Get across the border. Break the law. It's free stuff all the way. Those days have come to an end. So many Democrats are saying, no, no, that's not the message. Look, we had Kamala say, do not come. That means that we were serious about this.

The Megyn Kelly Show

2624.686

The second important thing to point out is you hear all these nonsense rules that were put in place by Mayorkas of, oh, there's these sensitive areas. You can't enforce the law here. Oh, you have to take down these barriers and let them come in. This was willful. This invasion was willful. This was part of the plan that they had in place. There needs to be lawsuits against Maricus.

He didn't get a pardon. He didn't get a pardon. This didn't just happen in his watch. He enabled and encouraged this to happen. There needs to be accountability.

The Megyn Kelly Show

2750.8

And also beyond that, I know for a long time it's been a punchline, and rightfully so, the whole self-deportation idea. But when you take away things like birthright citizenship, there's no longer a reason to stay here. You got to go. There's nothing left. If you show up here hoping to just have a child and that's a U S citizen, and then they can get you a green card and you can play that game.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

2772.661

That's been going for way too long. You take that away. And all of a sudden there is no point here because eventually I'm looking for you. Yeah.

The Megyn Kelly Show

2891.149

So here are your rights right there. The data shows a drop of 95 percent right there. The initial reaction from the media, I remember on Monday, you had 50 journos taking video of, oh, this is a migrant who's trying to get in and they're crying now. Oh, isn't that horrible? They're crying.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

2909.217

Every one of those journalists got played because Monday was also Martin Luther King Day and the DHS is closed. There are no appointments that can be made on Martin Luther King Day. But if you're a migrant crying, your word is golden. The Constitution of the United States, that's how immigration works. Oh, that's necessary. We have someone crying and telling journos a lie.

I mean, you just read what the thing does. I mean, the good news is congratulations to CLF and the NRCC. Your ad is ready to go for the midterm for $156,000.

The Megyn Kelly Show

3269.705

It's like the Voltaire quote where he said, I ask God for but one wish that my enemies be absurd. And he granted it. And Trump has been given that in spate. The more that they try to sound crazy and say, just because someone's covered in gang tattoos and breaks the law entering the country doesn't mean they're a criminal. Actually, that's exactly what it means.

The Megyn Kelly Show

And when you're wearing a flag that says, I'm a member of a gang, you're probably a member of a gang.

The Megyn Kelly Show

3732.782

And I think Holmes is exactly right. This is the playbook that the left and especially Senate Democrats go to again and again and again. They did to Clarence Thomas. They did to Kavanaugh. They had some sketchy lawyer show up and say, oh, I think that there was a gang rape that this guy was taking part in. And the media ran with it like it was gospel.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

403.484

I think, you know, you pointed out on X this morning, there was even an article in political where they said, it's time to admit Trump is a great president. There has been a significant shift. I think a lot of the smarter people in the media have picked up on when someone wins a landslide victory and the popular vote. Clearly, the people have spoken.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

4101.544

Also, how much more obvious can you get you're in the wrong line of work if you say, I have a challenge being objective? Okay. You just said you need a new job. Get out of there. Maybe a columnist. Yeah.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

424.06

And if you're a journalist, there's nothing left to try to grift your way into a book deal saying that this is Hitler or anything. The people have spoken loud and clear. And you look at the guy. He's having the time of his life. It's because I think part of it is he's reflecting the energy right back at people. I was struck when we were done recording our episode yesterday.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

444.713

I'm driving past the White House, and I just smiled. And it struck me, it's been a while since I was excited about where our country's going, the people we have in charge. Good days are ahead. That kind of optimism had been completely crushed by the American people for four years. The American people are ready to be happy.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

4454.04

So that's the thing is the funniest joke we ever pulled on the Democrats was convincing them that Project 2025 wasn't real. Yeah, that's exactly right. And to, I mean, Russ's credit, he's perfectly composed at these hearings. I don't know how he maintains the composure to not just come forward and be like, it's over, we won. Yes, we're going to do Project 2025. And here's the thing is it's good.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

4479.696

And he's going to be managing OMB. So one of the things to consider is everyone thinks Project 2025 only has to deal with abortion. When you're managing the budget, there's tremendous economic benefits. I've been told by reliable source, for example, There's going to be so many jobs created because all the red robes and bonnets are going to be made here in America. So many jobs will be created.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

4723.59

That is really and that's the crime. That's the critical thing is this was these people were incredibly corrupt because they used the fact that they had access to that intelligence as a meal ticket. They signed these contributor contracts so that they could say, oh, you know, Clapper, he has a security clearance and, you know, he's a paid contributor. And he says this bears the hallmarks.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

4747.162

Of Russian disinformation. So he can just use the fact that he has security clearance to get himself a nice little picture. You're the viewer.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5233.877

So I started hearing murmurs about this a while ago, too. And I guess so Ash Ashbrook and he confirmed because he was a psychic there. We did it with a psychic. Yeah. And so that's the thing is how awesome must have that situation been that the psychic was like, I see a president in your past that you're currently dating. And he's like, oh, it's Barack. You're right.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5280.649

When a woman tells another woman, yeah, you can tell me I'll keep a secret. The phone's already out. Now it's about to hit a group chat. So that is, to me, the most conclusive piece of evidence.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5339.319

I've only been married a year, but I've already learned you take the photos, you show it to the wife and then you distribute it.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5388.504

And that's the thing is, so the Bidens and Obama hate each other because Michelle Obama is very good friends with Hunter Biden's ex-wife. So that's led to a significant problem where they don't like Hunter. And if you don't like Hunter, Joe doesn't like you. So I would not be surprised if Holmes is right on with this of like, oh, well, why don't we do this?

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5407.332

It's like, oh, man, you give us problems. Maybe you can have a problem or two. Bingo.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5520.232

And that's, it's clearly not a partisan thing. Like Michelle is not trying to resist. So she skipped the inauguration because she also skipped the Carter funeral. There's something happening there. There's something there.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5843.888

Such a lost opportunity because the cartel boss gets a little choppo.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

5929.144

How come they're not trolling? Like, this is not satire? No. We checked. We thought this was parody. It's real. I want to make a movie that's just so blatant. Like that's, I mean, like that has to be a show. It feels like the South Park guys could have come up with that.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

6334.58

You know what I mean? Like Schindler's List, Braveheart. These were films that won and had huge audiences. What a wild business model for Hollywood to try to turn a profit. Now, when it's easier than ever to get your film in front of people's eyeballs, they could stream it. Still, people choose not to watch this and they're like, oh, because it's too good of art.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

857.137

Yeah. I think you're a hundred percent right is that that was the missing component. And also for the American people, even when Trump came to power just now, there was a bit of kind of like lowered expectations because you're like, I remember the first time there were all these people stabbing in the back, there were all these lawsuits, everything got bogged down.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

876.475

You had issues with like the house and the Senate garbling up his agenda, slowing it down. You have none of that this time, and the difference is loyalty. Everyone's on the same page.

The Megyn Kelly Show

Trump's Instant Action on Illegal Immigration, CNN Cuts, and Obama Divorce Rumblings, with Ruthless Podcast Hosts | Ep. 990

886.841

They learned so much from that first administration, how the media would treat them, how people that were brought in just because, oh, well, he's got the right resume, not necessarily that they are 100% loyal to Trump and his agenda, which the American people resoundingly support. So there's no need to lower expectations now.

The Megyn Kelly Show

903.405

We've seen in the first 48 hours, breakneck speed, he's delivering exactly what the American people wanted.
