I would like to introduce you to a new brand of Angus beef. You can order it directly from Riverbend Ranch, which is located just a few miles from West Yellowstone, Montana. Riverbend Ranch raises their cattle a lot differently than most ranches. For example, they never use artificial growth hormones or antibiotics.

78.107 - 94.573 Megyn Kelly

They track the health of every animal from the day it is born and can guarantee that it has been healthy every day of its life. And they handle their animals humanely and with respect. But most important is the quality of the beef. You'll find it as tender and flavorful as the finest restaurants.

0

94.973 - 114.804 Megyn Kelly

And that's because they have spent the last 35 years selecting cattle for tenderness and flavor, aging their beef to perfection for 21 days. The result is some of the most tender and flavorful beef you have ever tasted. You cannot buy beef like this in a grocery store. And since it is shipped directly from the ranch to your home, you get a much better price than going through the middleman.

Where this was discovered is a heavily traveled area where many White House, West Wing, I should be even more specific, West Wing visitors come through this particular area.

560.873 - 576.623 Donald Trump

For at least two decades, political leaders from both parties have dragged our military into missions. It was never meant to be. It wasn't meant to be. People would say, why are we doing this? Why are we wasting time? our time, money, and souls in some case.

576.863 - 601.018 Donald Trump

They sent our warriors on nation-building crusades to nations that wanted nothing to do with us, led by leaders that didn't have a clue in distant lands, while abusing our soldiers with absurd ideological experiments here and at home. All of that's ended. The job of the U.S. Armed Forces is not to host drag shows to transform America,

601.658 - 622.01 Donald Trump

foreign cultures, but to spread democracy to everybody around the world at the point of a gun. The military's job is to dominate any foe and annihilate any threat to America anywhere, anytime and any place. A big part of that job is to be respected again.

Harvard firing back with a lawsuit calling the move retaliatory and unlawful.

786.909 - 801.114 Megyn Kelly

From the complaint, quote, it is the latest act by the government in clear retaliation for Harvard exercising its First Amendment rights to reject the government's demands to control Harvard's governance, curriculum, and the ideology of its faculty and students.

801.934 - 819.774 Megyn Kelly

The university is saying the ban will have a devastating effect on more than 7,000 visa holders who will have to transfer to other schools to maintain legal status.

829.199 - 838.824 Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt

They were in the process of removing the tax-exempt status from Harvard. There have been a lot of issues at Harvard, but that's one that comes within your bailiwick. Where is that process right now?

0

839.264 - 867.207 Scott Besson

The president is moving forward with that. And we're also looking at taxes on endowments. And I think the important thing here, and it goes a little bit back to this Main Street versus the elites, that Harvard, to have a tax-exempt status, there are rules you have to follow. And if you're not following the rules... No one's above the law. So we will see if they're following the rules.

0

867.287 - 882.941 Scott Besson

It looks like there's a substantial number where perhaps they weren't. And, you know, again, too, Harvard is a gigantic hedge fund. They run a leveraged investment model. So we'll see where all that goes.

883.501 - 905.614 Megyn Kelly

Harvard sits on the largest university endowment fund in the world at more than $53 billion. Currently, the endowment is exempt from federal income taxes because the school is recognized as having an educational and charitable mission. However, the idea of taxing the endowment has been raised by President Trump in recent months, suggesting Harvard has become more of a political entity.

The face shove seen round the world. A viral video appears to show French President Emmanuel Macron's wife Brigitte aggressively shoving his face with two hands on Sunday as the couple prepared to disembark from a plane in Vietnam. The Macrons had just landed for a stop on their tour of Southeast Asia when the moment was caught on camera.

927.953 - 946.436 Megyn Kelly

As staff opened the aircraft door, it appears Mrs. Macron can be seen placing both of her hands on the president's face with enough force to push him slightly sideways and a bit backward.

947.316 - 964.485 Megyn Kelly

Mr. Macron later explaining the moment to reporters in remarks translated from French, quote, there's a video showing me joking and teasing my wife, and somehow that becomes a sort of geo-planetary catastrophe, with people even coming up with theories to explain it. We are horsing around and really joking with my wife.
