Okay, folks, on today's show, we have a lot to get to because Donald Trump just gave one of the greatest press conferences in American history. He talked more in this press conference than Joe Biden has for four years, and he actually said coherent words, which I know we're not used to it. So I feel kind of spoiled, to me honestly. We'll get to that. We'll get to Mark Zuckerberg and all the fallout from his announcement that he's killing the idiotic fact-checking programs that have been used as censorious tools. Look, it's a Middle East policy from the Biden administration. Let's start with this press conference because, man, oh man, this was a doozy. And it was wonderful in so many ways. So first, I just have to show you a map of what America is going to look like under Donald Trump. It's a map of what America is going to look like. So there you see it. The United States.

0:40.3

You also see the Gulf of America. Now you might be thinking yourself, hold up a second. Isn't that the Gulf of Mexico?

0:47.3

No, it isn't. It isn't anymore. Donald Trump is going to instruct the federal government to rename the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of

0:55.5

America, and I am here for it.

0:58.2

It's fantastic.

0:59.5

If you look at that map, about 65% of the coastline along the Gulf of Mexico is in America.

1:05.7

So screw it.

1:06.5

That's our Gulf, my friends.

1:07.9

That is the Gulf of America.

1:09.1

Here's Donald Trump announcing.

1:11.0

And we're going to be announcing at a future date pretty soon. We're going to change because we do

1:18.5

most of the work there, and it's ours. We're going to be changing. Sort of the opposite of Biden,

1:23.8

where he's closing everything up, essentially getting rid of 50 to 60 trillion dollars

1:29.0

worth of assets. We're going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of

1:36.0

America, which has a beautiful ring that covers a lot of territory. The Gulf of America. What a

1:42.7

beautiful name. Yes. Yes. My friend Matt Walsh has

1:47.3

suggested that we also rename the moon to which I say absuff freaking looted we should rename the

1:51.5

moon. It's our moon. We put a flag on it. We were there first. Ours. Not China's moon, not

1:58.2

Russia's moon. Our moon. Deal with it. We need to annex the moon immediately.

2:03.8

But actually, like, really, I think it's pretty amazing that we're renaming the Gulf of Mexico,

2:07.3

the Gulf of America. I think it's great. And, like, who's going to stop us? Mexico?

2:12.7
