Senator Ron Johnson reveals the single most disturbing thing he discovered in Anthony Fauci’s diaries. Johnson says this was the justification that he used to “devastate people’s lives.” JOHNSON: “One thing that I think is really being overlooked in terms of what was revealed in those diaries…” “Was early on in the pandemic, to his diary, he thought that COVID-19 would be double the flu, but he went out in public saying it was TEN times.” “He went out to the public and said it was going to be ten times worse…and that’s what he used to shut down the economy.” “To devastate people’s lives. Devastate the economy.”

LAURA INGRAHAM: “Senator, you have the phone with you.” “Can we look through it on live TV?” SENATOR JOHNSON: “No, we’re downloading the phone right now.” LAURA INGRAHAM: “What can you tell us about what you have learned thus far?” SENATOR JOHNSON: “From the phone, not much because we’re downloading it and trying to do it the right way. We want to preserve the evidence.” “I can tell you that what we have looked at, it predates the pandemic, so that’s good.” “The way we’re going to use it, obviously, we’ll compare key moments, see who he was texting.” “We’ll compare what we see on the phone to other FOIA requests where he provided texts.” “Did he provide all the texts?” “We know, obviously, his henchman, David Morens… showed him how to delete emails, or remove them, and so, it might be a treasure trove.” “I think the diaries certainly were. They showed Fauci for the complete phony that he was.”

President Trump’s entire cabinet erupts into applause after RFK Jr. says every president promised to lower drug prices for Americans...but Trump was the only one who actually did it. KENNEDY: “When you came into office, the list price for Ozempic was $1,350 for Americans.” “You could get it at any pharmacy in London, Hamburg, Frankfurt for $88.” “Every president, President Bush, President Biden, President Clinton, President Obama, have all promised to fix this and none of them did anything.” “You fixed it!” [Cabinet bursts into applause]

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the U.S. is leading a coalition of 60 countries to confront far-left violence and prosecute terrorism groups like Antifa. RUBIO: “We had an unprecedented ministerial…60 countries came to Washington and we’re part of an effort shedding light on far-left terrorism and violence.” “If a bomb goes off somewhere and it’s tied to some right-wing group…you’re gonna get a lot of attention on that.” “But it’s a leftist group, an Antifa group, they get no coverage or they ignore the ideological spin and the ideological reason behind it.” “So we got 60 countries came up here hopefully creating a strong coalition to go after far-left violent terrorism.” “Go after it, call it by name, and I think we’re building a very strong coalition there.”

JUST IN: Vice President JD Vance says the administration’s fraud task force has uncovered $230 billion in fraud being perpetrated against American taxpayers. He says they have already stopped $56 billion from going out the door. VANCE: “Just since the beginning of the fraud task force that I started under the president’s leadership and direction, we have identified $230 billion dollars of fraud that’s being perpetrated against the American people.” “And we have halted already $56 billion dollars of that.” “It’s sometimes hard once the money has already gone out the door, it’s hard to get it back.” “But stopping it from going out the door is how we save the American people $56 billion dollars.” “Just today…we will announce 17 new anti-fraud actions that will total about a third of a billion dollars, and that’s added to the $230 billion that we’ve already uncovered.”

President Trump warns that what’s happening in Spain will look “small time” compared to what will happen to the United States if Republicans lose power. Trump blamed the third-world invasion on “weak law, bad management, but very liberal law.” TRUMP: "You know I saw Spain yesterday and I watched the catastrophe that took place...it looks like an invasion of a country." "Hundreds of thousands of people. And that same thing is going to happen to us if the Republicans don't get elected. Except worse. Much bigger." "Much easier to get into, despite the fact that we have thousands miles of wall." "But if we didn't have that, forget it." "We have the safest border in the world, if we're not in office, our country will be invaded at levels that make Spain look small time." "When you look at what happened to Spain, they don't know what to do." "They're coming in by the thousands, tens of thousands. It's just invading the country." "What that is, is weak law, bad management, but very liberal law."

ROB FINNERTY: “You have Tony Fauci’s old job, is that correct, Dr. Bhattacharya?” DR. BHATTACHARYA: “Well…he would have worked for me, actually.” “He was the head of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease…” ROB FINNERTY: “As it should be, by the way!” “But do you feel vindicated for that? Like, my goodness, talk about coming full circle.” DR. BHATTACHARYA: “Yeah, I mean…vindication is nice. But to me, the most important thing is that we have to make sure that the NIH works for the American people.” “And what you saw yesterday in Congress was not an example of that. And it just pains me.”

Nile Gardiner, a former adviser to Margaret Thatcher, perfectly encapsulates what’s happening in Spain. Gardiner said everyone is watching “the end of Western civilization” play out as a direct result of radical leftist policies. This is what the U.S. would have looked like had Kamala Harris won. GARDINER: “This is absolute disaster for Europe.” “And it’s the direct result of open borders, socialist, crazy policies, frankly, including mass amnesty for illegal immigrants in Spain.” “This is what happens, of course, when the left take power.” “What we’re seeing in North Africa, in Europe, is what would have happened to the United States if Kamala Harris had become president, actually.” “There’s no doubt about it, actually, and we are seeing literally in real time the end of Western civilization as a result of socialist policies.”

He may be the Democrats’ last bastion of hope. Senator John Fetterman continues to draw a line in the sand against the DSA “crazies” trying to take over his party. Fetterman warned CNBC’s Joe Kernen that the anti-American barbarians are already “at the gate.” FETTERMAN: “And now on our side, now, we have more and more crazies!” “You know, the DSA, the abolish-the-border, abolish-the-prison, abolish-the-Senate, you know, crazies.” “Now they’re at the gate here in my party. And I would warn people the kind of extremism, now that’s, you know, incredibly dangerous.” “And if we eliminate the filibuster, we’re essentially a smaller version of the House, and we’ll be governed by these bizarre, extreme fixations…you know, that’s coming down to anti-American things on the Democratic side.”

President Trump gets a massive applause in Michigan after vowing to pass the SAVE America Act. Trump urged supporters to call their Senators and demand they vote for the bill, saying it would require proof of citizenship and photo ID for voting. TRUMP: “And finally we will pass the SAVE America Act through Senate, hopefully the Senate.” [Cheers and applause] “Call your Senators. Put pressure on them.” “We won’t get one Democrat Senator to get you voter ID with photo, need a photo…” “If they did ID, which don’t want to do, they don’t want a photo. Why do they want it?” “You know, at the Democrat National Convention, they had an identification card that was bigger than most of the people’s chests.” “It was hung on a chain with a picture and every fact about this person you can imagine.” “But for voting, our most sacred thing, you don’t need they say voter ID.” “So we want voter photo ID and we want all showing proof of a thing called citizenship!” “Isn’t that nice?”

President Trump makes an absolute fool out of Barack Obama in front of a packed rally in Michigan for thinking he could bribe Iran with BILLIONS of U.S. taxpayer dollars. Trump had the crowd roaring after saying the only way to deal with Iran is to “beat them,” declaring: “And we’re beating the HELL out of them!” TRUMP: “They were the bully in the Middle East and they were the bully of us.” “And Obama came along and gave them TENS of BILLIONS of dollars. He gave them $1.7 billion in green cash. Remember that? “Put them on a Boeing 757, flew it to Tehran. $1.7 billion in green. He thought he could bribe them and instead they thought what a stupid country this is!” “How stupid.” “No, you can’t bribe them. You’ve got to beat them and we’re beating the HELL out of them!” [Audience erupts in cheers and applause] “We’ll see how it turns out. Right now, they have very friendly negotiations going on.”

PRESIDENT TRUMP: “In four long years of sleepy Joe Biden and his crazy administration…they’re communists, they were communists.” “That was the beginning. He wasn’t, because he had no idea what that was happening.” “They said, Joe, let’s go communist. He said, what is that exactly?” “They got less than $1 trillion dollars. So think of it. In four years they had investment of less than a trillion dollars. Four years, less than a trillion.” “In one year, my administration secured commitments of more than $19.2 trillion dollars from all over the globe.” [Applause] “Think of that. One year, $19.2 [trillion].”

President Trump declares to a packed house in Michigan that the United States has gone from “DEAD” to the “hottest country anywhere in the world” in just a year and a half. TRUMP: “One year ago, our country was DEAD and now we are the hottest country anywhere in the world.” “We’re the hottest country.” “Everybody is respecting us.” “You know, they respect us again. They respect the United States, I think they respect us more than they’ve ever.” “And we did this in a year and a half!”

President Trump just weighed in on Spanish soccer star Ferran Torres wearing a “Make Spain Great Again” hat during Spain’s World Cup victory celebration. Trump said he viewed it as a “nice tribute” to the MAGA movement, and called it a “very great compliment.” REPORTER: “The football player who scored Spain’s goal in the final at the World Cup, Ferran Torres, celebrated the victory wearing a ‘Make Spain Great Again’ cap.” “The communists are attacking him because they say that he’s a friend of you…what do you think about that?” TRUMP: “Well, he’s a great player, and he was wearing, essentially, a Make America Great Again cap.” “And so it was a nice tribute. And I think he meant that very nicely. We appreciate it.” “We have, we’ve made America great.” “We have the greatest country in the world now…” “So, I him wearing the, essentially, Make America Great Again hat and I know that he meant it as a very great compliment and we appreciate it.”

Karoline Leavitt CONFIRMS: President Trump is losing his patience with Senate Leader John Thune over his refusal to pass the SAVE America Act. LEAVITT: “Look, the president spoke about this directly yesterday. His patience is running out.” “He wants to see as much of the SAVE America passed as possible by the August recess.” “He knows that’s what the American people want to see passed.” “He was just traveling on the road yesterday, spoke about this, and there was a very loud applause from the people in the audience, the everyday Americans, because voter ID is common sense.” “They want proof of citizenship in our elections.” “And the president feels very strongly about that. And I would just add, you know, the American people elected overwhelmingly Republicans to lead, not just this White House, but also the House and the Senate.” “The House did its job. The Senate needs to do its job.”

Karoline Leavitt couldn’t help but laugh out loud when a reporter asked whether the Trump administration plans to work with “left-of-center” Democrats, as the party is cannibalized by socialists. Her response was priceless. LEAVITT: “Well, unfortunately, we don’t seem to have [laughs] too many of those left in the Democrat party.” “We have LITERAL self-proclaimed communists, who are winning elections and who are claiming to be the new leadership of the Democrat Party.” “I think the vast majority of Americans understand the dangers of communism. Just look at countries all over this world.” “As an example, Cuba right now is a country that is about to be a failed state because of the communist policies of the past several decades.” “Communism should never be allowed to to lead this country. And the president obviously is strictly opposed to it and all of the dangers that it reaps.” “We’ve seen it happen across the world.”

Karoline Leavitt stepped up to the White House podium and declared this was “the biggest tax refund season in American history.” The numbers she laid out are staggering. KAROLINE LEAVITT: “A little more than a year after President Trump signed the working families tax cuts into law, this historic legislation continues to deliver on its promise, unleashing a genuine boom for American workers, families and small businesses.” “The numbers speak for themselves.” “This was the biggest tax refund season in American history, with the average refund exceeding $3,400, an 11% increase over the last year.” “American families and workers claimed $82 billion in direct tax relief, and 97% of filers received a tax cut.” “More than 29 million workers claim no tax on overtime.” “More than 35 million seniors claimed no tax on social security.” “And nearly 8 million workers claimed no tax on tips.”

BREAKING: Karoline Leavitt confirms that immigration vehicle stops will “continue” despite reports that DHS was ending the practice. Leavitt said President Trump and DHS leadership are in full agreement that the tactic remains a necessary tool for ICE’s deportation operations. DASHA BURNS: “Can you confirm whether vehicle stops are back on and is the administration doing anything to prevent these kinds of deaths?” KAROLINE LEAVITT: “So, a couple of things. Vehicle stops are continuing.” “Verbal guidance has been given to all field offices across the country by the Department of Homeland Security.” “The president and Secretary of Homeland Security are on the same page that vehicle stops are a necessary tool that ICE agents need in order to continue their deportation campaign of the worst of the worst illegal alien criminals from our country.”

JUST IN: The White House confirms President Trump will attend Sunday’s FIFA World Cup Final between Argentina and Spain. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made the announcement moments after returning to the podium for the first time since her maternity leave. LEAVITT: “On Friday, the president will travel to New York City to attend a FIFA reception at Trump Tower, followed by his attendance on Sunday at the FIFA World Cup between Spain and Argentina.” “His attendance will cap what has been the most watched, most secure, most successful World Cup in American history.” “This is a fitting conclusion to a tournament that showcased America’s ability to host the world on the grandest stage.”

Karoline Leavitt says the United States now has the most secure southern border in the nation’s history. ZERO illegal aliens released into the U.S. for the 14th consecutive month. LEAVITT: “Finally let’s turn to the border.” “Brand new numbers from the Department of Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection confirm that for the 14th straight month, this administration has released ZERO illegal aliens into the United States.” “Again, let me reiterate. The 14th straight month not a single illegal criminal alien has been entered into our country, released into our country, by this administration.” “Illegal crossings in June remained at historic lows and southwest border apprehensions are down 94% compared to the same period under the Biden administration.” “These numbers speak for themselves.” “Thanks to President Trump’s strong leadership and unwavering commitment to law enforcement, America has the most secure border we have ever had in our nation’s history.”
