Chapter 1: What confrontation occurred between Trump and the Governor of Maine?
We'll have that for you. Also... There is now a big question after the House passed a huge budget resolution and a big beautiful bill. So what does the time frame look like to actually have a real budget that is passed and what does it mean for the taxpayers? Will there be a chance that this can get through the Senate and to the President's desk to sign it?
Chapter 2: What is the status of the new budget bill?
I'll explain that in just a moment as well. And finally, there's new information out of Butler, Pennsylvania and an accusation in the New York Post that the attempted assassination on Donald Trump That shooter may have actually had help from others. It's the Week in Review and it starts right now.
Chapter 3: Did the attempted assassination on Trump involve accomplices?
There was a badass moment at the White House where the president straight up called out a governor who was in attendance for the governors. A bunch of governors come to the White House. They had their big governors meeting. They invited these governors to come to the White House.
Chapter 4: How is the Trump administration enforcing federal laws on transgender athletes?
And the president just straight out called out one of the governors for the plan that had leaked in essence that he was going to defy the directive from the federal government about protecting women from men playing in their sports, transgender individuals claiming that they're a chick. And the president just said, I don't care. You're here. Glad you're here.
Are you going to not go along with what I told you to do? And it was one of those flashpoint moments just showing you, I think, the difference is time and the mentality of this president.
Ja, nein, das ist genau richtig. Trump ist nicht zurückgegangen. Und ich muss sagen, die Demokraten, es scheint, dass sie nichts von der Wahl gelernt haben. Hier, hören Sie zu dem Verhandlung zwischen dem Gouverneur von Mainz und Präsident Trump.
Die NCAA hat sofort verabschiedet, das ist gut. Aber ich verstehe Mainz. Ist Mainz hier, der Gouverneur von Mainz? Nein, er ist nicht hier. Wirst du nicht mit ihm verabschieden? Ich verabschiede mich mit der städtischen federalen Regel. Wir sind die federalen Regeln. Well, you better do it. You better do it, because you're not going to get any federal funding at all if you don't.
And by the way, your population, even though it's somewhat liberal, although I did very well there, your population doesn't want men playing in women's sports. So you better comply, because otherwise you're not getting any federal funding. Every state... Good, I'll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a real easy one.
And enjoy your life after governor, because I don't think you'll be in elected politics.
I mean, the trash talking, I just gotta say, looking at the female governor main saying like, hey, the people there want this too. You should listen to the people. I'll see you in court. All right, great. Look forward to it. I don't think you're gonna be in politics much longer either if you keep this up. This is just a different Donald Trump this time around.
Well, it is. And by the way, there's also real teeth to it. So simultaneously with this exchange, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that it initiated a compliance review of the University of Maine. And the state could be in jeopardy of losing a hundred million dollars in federal USDA funding over noncompliance with the executive order on keeping males out of female sports.
And at the end of the day, and by the way, This is not hypothetical. This is happening in Maine. In Maine, there was a transgender boy who identifies as a girl who took first place in the girls pole vaulting at Maine's Class B state championship. Und es ist ein Wettbewerb, der die Hochschule überhaupt in den ersten Platz genommen hat.
